Classic Danwei posts
+ Korean history doesn't fly on Chinese TV screens (2007.09): SARFT puts the kibbosh on Korean historical dramas. + Religion and government in an uneasy mix (2008.03): Phoenix Weekly (凤凰周刊) article from October, 2007, on government influence on religious practice in Tibet. + David Moser on Mao impersonators (2004.10): I first became aware of this phenomenon in 1992 when I turned on a Beijing TV variety show and was jolted by the sight of "Mao Zedong" and "Zhou Enlai" playing a game of ping pong. They both gave short, rousing speeches, and then were reverently interviewed by the emcee, who thanked them profusely for taking time off from their governmental duties to appear on the show.

The video is very nice. I like the song, too. It feels dynamic. Keep us with the good work, folks!
Hmm... sort of like "C'etait un rendezvous", only on a bike.
Dynamic! Energisant! Funny! Very very good choice of song! Cheer to Camille!!!!
ça m'a beaucoup intéressé d'avoir vu une vidéo filmée par français en Chine, étant chinois en France.
le monde est petit alors. :-)
