Updated: 2008-07-25 07:28 True-life salon romance shot and serialized Freelancer He Gaode and a group of lay actors and actresses in Yichun, Jiangxi province, have made a four-episode TV series based on a true story. It is about a kind and virtuous hairdresser and the son of a local leader, whose confidence she helps rebuild, and who eventually fall in love. Although completely inexperienced in TV drama, Gao wrote, directed, shot and produced the serial. As the show was made on a shoe-string investment of 20,000 yuan, Gao and the amateur performers were hard-put to finish the show in just one month. It is to be aired in September. (Information Daily) Rider thrown off bike falls asleep despite injuries Police officers in Yujiang county of Jiangxi province acted on a report from the local community recently and saved the life of a drunken motorcyclist who had crashed his bike. They found the man lying in a thorn bush a few yards away from his motorbike, reeking of alcohol and sound asleep, though he had sustained extensive injuries. Thanks to timely police rescue and hospital treatment the man was saved. (New Legal Report) (China Daily 07/25/2008 page5) |
