Comments on What meticulous work!
I was expecting more from Hu's papercut. A nine headed bird would make a nice topic. Might do one myself.
It's interesting to see this new in a English website cause I'm a Wuhanese(武汉人).
But Banyue may had forgotten another news:
Hubei provincial museum has opened for free in future,
what's more, the queue of visitors,wow!
你呵我!Unbelievable!
