In the past 10 years, Zhao Qiushi has created more than 2,000 pieces of microscopic carvings in Changchun, capital city of Northeast China's Jilin Province.

China's self-designed "artificial sun," a device to harness the energy of fusion, has made an important advance by achieving a temperature of 100 million C in plasma and a heating power of 10 megawatts, media reported, noting the progress could pave the way for developing clean energy through nuclear fusion. The Institute of Plasma Physics, affiliated with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, announced on its website on Monday that various data points achieved in the experiments are close to meeting physics' demand for future steady-state fusion reactor operation. Independently designed and developed by China, the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) is the world's first fully superconducting tokamak with non-circular cross-section and the country's fourth generation experimental nuclear fusion device(Photo/VCG)

One carriage of each train will carry goods, mainly documents, garments, food, electronic devices, and others.

Wei Jinhua, who comes from East China's Jiangxi province, invested 50 million yuan ($7.18 million) to reinvent an underground garage into the largest indoor ice and snow world in northwestern China.

"Since the ice-making plant in Xi'an, Shaanxi province, does not have large ice chunks, ice used here - more than 2,000 metric tons - is transported from Wuhan and other places," Wei said.

The ice and snow world in the Qujiang Polar Ocean Park in Xi'an consists of three parts - ice sculpture exhibits, a parent-child interactive experience and a winter sports show.

More than 500 pieces of ice and snow works were carefully carved by over 40 ice sculptors, who worked eight or nine hours a day in a large ice house at minus 8 degrees Celsius, with a wage of 1,500 yuan per day.

Whenever I'm in China I play the "fog or smog" game with the wife. If I can taste the air, it's smog, so far, smog mostly wins.
