From newspapers, people have heard of body bombs in Baghdad, or car bombs in Kabul, but they have never seen such an extreme violence with their own eyes.

On July 9, 2007, for the first time through the internet, people witnessed an appalling car bomb on a street of Jinan City (济南), Shandong Province (山东).

To get rid of his increasingly difficult mistress, Duan Yihe (段义和), the chairman of Jinan Municipal Council, planted a powerful bomb under her car seat.

To this day, many people still clearly remember the mistress's head, torso, limbs and countless pieces of internal organs scattered on the city's main road.

In 2007, Apple launched its smartphone - iPhone - as a rival of Android smartphone. Since then on, iPhone has been one of the most popular products in China's electronics market.

From students to China's first lady Peng Liyuan (彭丽媛), many people are using iPhones. Every time when Apple releases a new iPhone, these loyal fans will buy the latest product.

As a pro-Android open-source programming amateur, I really dislike the closed system of iPhone, for example, you can't build a bluetooth connection with it and send a photo to it.

The most intolerable thing is that Apple hands over the private data of Chinese users to a state-owned company, it means that cyberpolice can ring your doorbell at any time.

Who is the most popular Japanese actor/actress in China? To the middle-aged and the elderly, he is Ken Takakura (高倉健), but to the young, she is Sora Aoi (蒼井そら).

Sora Aoi is a Japanese adult video idol, and many young people save her pornographic videos in the secret directories on their computer hard drives for watching them at any time.

The reason that young people like Sora Aoi is not her erotic performances in these videos, but her accommodating personality, as well as her excellent calligraphy of Chinese characters.

If you type several Chinese characters on Sora Aoi's Twitter account, for example, "真给力" (awesome), she probably will use a brush and ink to write them on a large sheet of paper.
