The new matchmaker

In the fast pace of urban life, there seems to be more single women than before, but for Tian Jing the situation has given birth to a business opportunity. Tian calls herself "the matchmaker in modern times". She started a club in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, to help single women find their partners through a series of classes, including makeup and body shaping. Now her club has more than 600 members.
