Barbie Hsu marries billionaire heir Wang Xiaofei

Posted: 16 Nov 2010 01:48 PM PST

Taiwanese star Barbie Hsu is technically married with Chinese billionaire heir Wang Xiaofei. The couple has registered their marriage in Beijing on Tuesday (Nov 16); their wedding ceremony is scheduled to be held in March next year.

While it’s nothing new for celebrity to marry with rich heir, the timing was perhaps a bit shocking in this case, as the couple has known each other for less than a month when they announced their engagement in late October.

Love at first sight or whatever, the newly wed couple is old enough to make their own decision. Congratulations, and good luck. Image from Sohu [Cn].

Box of apples sold for $12,000 USD in Japan

Posted: 15 Nov 2010 08:47 PM PST

A box of 28 premium Esashi apples was recently sold for a record one million yen (~US$12,000) in Iwate, Japan. Located in the city of Oshu, Esashi is known for its high quality agricultural products, especially for its rice and apples.

It’s not uncommon for premium fruits to be sold for a few hundreds US dollars in Japan; but exceptional pricing like this happens no more than once or twice a year, normally during the product’s first auction of the season where buyers would purchase it at high price, sometimes for publicity instead of gastronomical sake.
