Given a push by a couple of reality TV shows, the acting craft has come under the spotlight, and now it seems everyone wants to get in on the act
As snow falls in parts of China and temperatures plunge over great swathes of the country, when you consider the assessment it seems totally incongruous: "Spring has finally arrived."
But the man who utters those words - more than once - does so with a straight face, and unless he is putting on one of his best performances, seems convinced that what he says is true. For the actor Xu Zheng is talking about the rosy state in which his profession finds itself in China, and when you look at the evidence, it is compelling: spring does indeed seem to have arrived.
