Drinking Tea with Friends
Today I was drinking tea in the teahouse and talking about tea with friends. We knew there were many different types of tea in addition to the usual familiar Pu'er, Longjing, Tieguanyin and so on, there is this obscure tea, that looks like a piece of cotton, but is the famous "Tianshan Snow Lotus" from Wuxia novels. Really knowing a person by his reputation is not as good meeting him face-to-face.
今天在茶馆和朋友喝茶谈事情，才知道茶的种类有很多，除了平时大家熟悉的普洱、龙井、铁观音等等，还有这个看来不起眼，像塊棉花的，卻是在武侠小说中鼎鼎有名的「天山雪莲」，真是闻名不如见面！

"Treasure Map"
Jackie and Zhang Yimou are co-producing a film adaptation of 2012 Nobel Laureate for Literature Mo Yan's book "Treasure Map"
His first book to be adapted for the screen was "Red Sorghum" (Zhang Yimou).
A location has been found for the treasure in the caves of Yan Zi Dong. The film will utilize heavy visual effects, including 3-D, to capture what the Nobel committee called Mo's "hallucinatory realism." An exciting cliff-face fight/action scene has been planned for the finale.
Filming will take place in Chongqing.

Jackie Supports Baseball and Softball Inclusion Bid for 2020 Olympics.
International star Jackie Chan, who took part in the torch relay and sang at the Opening Ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympic Games, has become a Playball 2020 Ambassador to help baseball and softball earn a place in the 2020 Summer Olympic Games.
Chan said, "I have noticed that baseball and also softball have been growing globally and attracting boys and girls to come together to play (a sport)". The two sports teach children teamwork, discipline - about facing challenges and overcoming difficulties.

World Baseball Softball Confederation co-Presidents Riccardo Fraccari and Don Porter, "It's a tremendous honour and truly exciting to have Jackie Chan as a supporter of baseball and softball. He is an international figure who personifies hard work, athleticism, determination and supreme talent, which are qualities needed to reach the Olympic Games".
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) is voting September 8 in Buenos Aires, Argentina on the sports program for the 2020 Olympics. Baseball/ Softball are one of three finalists being considered by the IOC to be added to the 2020 Games.
