A few weeks ago I accepted the offer to perform a song at this year's Niuren
Competition. As I was notified just two days before the event, I couldn't make
arrangements for taking the Stick, so [I just played a well-known song on the
guitar](/posts/2010-06-24-2010-niuren.html). After the performance, I chatted with
a woman on site who had an awful lot of questions for me. Turns out she is a
reporter for the local newspaper ["Overseas Chinese
News"](http://www.yesqiaobao.com). Later the journalist asked me to send her
some photos of myself playing an instrument to illustrate an article they were
preparing.

The article is now available online, both as a [newspaper-styled
image](http://www.yesqiaobao.com/qilinzhoukan/epaper/linfen/html/2010/06/30/C1/images/back.jpg)
and a [text
version](http://www.yesqiaobao.com/qilinzhoukan/epaper/linfen/html/2010/06/30/C1/C1_40.htm).
I am very happy that they chose the photo of me playing the Chapman Stick at
home. Thanks to Sandra Yan for the article! (Careful: the newspaper's website
seems to be optimized for the Internet Explorer.)
