Fan moves with the times

Mavis Fan doesn't need to look at the album charts or seek out reviews to know that her songs are making a connection with her fans.

"I am surprised to see that people have been so supportive and followed me over the years," she says of her first solo concert in Beijing, which is going to be held next Friday.

Of course, having a best-selling record is reassuring too and Fan has had plenty of them during the past 18 years.
