China Stories: Community leader, Director Feng, has a surprising approach to cleaning up the environment. Yang Xi Wen spends around twelve hours a day on China's closely controlled internet.

Liu Hong Liang left a life in farming far behind when he moved to the city. What is life really like for them in modern day China?
