Anger at Australian film's 'whitewash' of war hero

Variety: Yellow Sheep River (Taiwan)
More filmed coffee-table book than documentary, Liu Soung's "Yellow Sheep River" sports postcard-perfect imagery aplenty but reveals little about life in western China's Gansu province.
CRI: A TV version of Feng Xiaogang's 2003 film "Cell Phone" will hit China's small screen
The biggest attraction is to see Chen Daoming, one of the best actors in China, and Wang Zhiwen, another acting veteran, perform in the same drama.
Feng Xiogang's 2003 movie "Cell Phone" was the most popular and successful domestic film of that year. It was adapted from a novel of the same name, which tells the story of two successful men whose marriages are wrecked when their wives uncover their extra-marital affairs through traces left on their cell phones

re: Andy Lau vs salted duck seller dispute resolved
This sounds like a great premise for a movie. Except that the 60-year old duck seller would have a young, beautiful, daughter (Angelbaby) who wins the heart of the misunderstood, slightly aging Cantopop singer/movie star (Andy Lau Tak-Wah). After the wedding they decide to keep the shop name and the epilogue shows their grown-up son, named Lui De Hua III, singing the theme song in front of the family store. Preferably played by Jay Chou.
I LOVE your story! Hmmm, who should play the duck seller? Sam Hui, of course! (Remember Chicken and Duck Talk?)
Shu Qi would make a good daughter. But since we need a mainland tie-in, maybe Zhang Jingchu? ;D
