    Olympics faux pas

    Trending news across China on Sept 8

    Two State media outlets were red-faced early Sunday for gaffes over the 2020 Summer Olympics bid results.

    A host from China Central Television misunderstood the voting results and said Tokyo was eliminated. Xinhuanet.com also got caught after mistakenly announcing Istanbul was the host before the International Olympic Committee announced the real winner – Tokyo.

    The Japanese capital addressed concerns over the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant and won convincingly by 60 votes to Istanbul's 36.

    Duck makeover

    Trending news across China on Sept 8 
     

    The popular giant rubber duck underwent "plastic surgery" with its pout changed from a puffy shape to a milder one following visitor complaints that the duck didn't look like the Hong Kong version at its debut in Beijing, according to qq.com.

    Shopping row

    Trending news across China on Sept 8 

     

    A Taiwan tour guide beat his mainland counterpart on Friday because the latter refused to coax mainland tourists into shopping, a common practice for tour guides to earn money, Taiwan-based TVBS reported. The mainland tour guide, surnamed Dong, was sent to hospital after the brawl. Dong said he would file a lawsuit.

    Costly relationship

    For cash-stricken freshmen who still long for a college romance, they may be disheartened to read a post that says a college boy would spend around 9,800 yuan ($1,588) a year on average to maintain a school relationship in Shenzhen, Guangdong province. The average monthly living cost for a male student stands at around 1,100 yuan ($178), according to oeeee.com.

    Gifts for teachers

    Cold mooncakes

    The unexpected sluggish sales of mooncakes have upset the industry's upstream suppliers. A package supplier said it has turned to toothpaste cardboard instead to offset the loss. Mooncakes used to be a hot item before Mid-Autumn Festival. High-priced, luxury versions of the cakes were popular as gifts. This year, sales dropped due to a crackdown on mooncake-generated government spending. (www.chinanews.com)

    Taiwan-based director Tsai Ming-liang won the Grand Jury Prize for his film Jiaoyou (Stray Dogs) at the 70th Venice International Film Festival on Saturday.

    Don't marry?your coach, Serena!

    Iconic Chinese tennis player Li Na added a little fizz to her after-match news conference when commenting on her archrival Serena Williams' alleged spark with her coach. "Don't get married (with the coach)," Li said, "because my experience is an example of how a man can change after marriage." Williams rolled over Li on Friday to book her place at the US Open final.
