704_150424_316394Four reasons to love GQ: Chang Chen. Wearing a  bowtie! On Bicycle! With a little bell!

Although just an inauspicious, unannounced guest at “shi mei” Huang Ling‘s fanmeet,  Han Han has been receiving  much recognition elsewhere lately. Earlier this year, he was included in Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential List. Now he’s featured in GQ’s issue of Men of the Year. The difference between the two magazines? GQ has nicer pictures. He’s joined in the featured spread by the ranks the likes of Taiwanese film actors, Chang Chen (Parking),  newbie but promising film actor Ethan Ruan (Monga), esteemed director Jiang Wen (Let the Bullets Fly), Lin Dan, badminton star, and others. Together they represent model men of this generation. Selected pictures below the cut.

Along with  the no-longer “buck-toothed” and never “ugly”  Yang Peiyi, Anson Hu sings the theme songs for Ethan Ruan’s movie New “Boy Jia Li.” Produced by SMG, New “Boy Jia Li” is a children’s movie based on the book of the same name.  When Ethan Ruan’s character, the class teacher, goes to work at a TV station, Jia Li’s seventh grade class is without a leader. The class also becomes involved in a conflict with the neighboring class. As the classes learns to get along, Jia Li grows up and Ethan Ruan finds a love of his own.

Popularity by the numbers

What’s the most fair way to count popularity?
Baidu, mainland’s biggest search engine, thinks it’s by search results.
On the 20th, Baidu held its 3rd annual Hunan TV-Baidu Search Awards at the Water Cube.
CFensi brings you some of the best performances and speeches from the H3O.

Vicki Zhao Wei – Most popular actress; upon viewing a video summary of her ten years as an actress:

My greatest reward is that I found the meaning to my life. I think living in this world, everyone has a purpose in their lives, be it the the feeling of parents to their child or a doctor to his patients. In these ten years, I found the value in my life. Although my purpose is not as amazing as that of a scientist, but I think my life was a worthwhile one.

Chen Kun – most popular male actor

Actually, I’m late to mature. I always thought that I should act in roles that I want to, like in Mei Lan Fang, but unfortuantely I missed it. I realized that in life, there are other roles we must act as. Thank you to everyone who has supported me to this day. Whether you’re a fan of my acting, singing, or you’re just someone who silently supports me, I hope you’ll continue to support me. I’ll do my best for you guys, because I learned to enjoy my profession now.

Vicki Zhao and Chen Kun’s acceptance speech, review of the past ten years, and meeting with four-generations of Vicki fans:
