New Road


The road in China. Miles and miles of it. The total length of highways in China will soon surpass that of the US. I wonder if there are any road shows on China TV, say the Chinese counterparts to Route 66 or Then Came Bronson. Or a bunch of young people screaming "ROAD TRIP". There has been homage paid to the motorcar in China film, my favorite being the son of a former drifting champion who delivered tofu while racing through the hills at night. His steadiness as a driver was revealed as not even a ripple of tofu could be seen as he slid around the corners.
