永远的命 (Immortal Life): Henrietta Lacks, an African-American, ended her short life at age 31 in 1951 due to cervical cancer, but the cancer cells collected from her have been passaged for generations, contributing greatly to medical research as HeLa cells. She is immortal.

发条女孩 (Windup Girl): This is a unique science fiction written by Paolo Bacigalupi, although someone may view it as "grotesque" or "female discrimination" resembling the front page illustration of "cleaning robot girl" in the recent issue of a journal "人工知能 (Artificial Intelligence)."

大长今, a Korean TV drama starring 李英愛, touches the heartstrings of audience universally, regardless of political, religious or other standpoints. I have watched this long drama 3 times from beginning to end, each time feeling refreshed excitement, encouragement and pleasure.

槿花一日自为荣(白居易): Prosperity does not last long, like the rose of Sharon falling off in only one day. It is a sad but irresistible reality. Glorious period was also short for my favorite judoist Tomoko Fukumi (Female 48 kg Class World Champion in 2009). Do you remember her?

大地之子 is an impressive TV drama produced in 1995 jointly by CCTV and Japan's NHK. Even a cool-headed lawyer confessed: "Deeply moved by this drama. Could not help but cry many times." The drama was a product of the China-Japan honeymoon period. Will honeymoon come again?

Each age/era should have an actor/actress representing the age, like Eleonora Duse who vividly and sweetly reminds us of the 19th century Italy (Yukio Mishima). 蒋雯丽 may be one such actress for contemporary China.
