On the last day before Christmas, I hurried to go to the supermarket to buy Christmas gifts. In the supermarket, I noticed a little boy, holding a doll and looking so sad. He turned to the old woman next to him, “Granny, are you sure I don’t have enough money?” The old lady replied, “You know we don’t have enough money to buy this doll, my dear.” Then she left for something else and the boy still stood there.

Finally, I went to the boy and asked him who he wanted to give this doll to. “It is the doll that my sister wanted so much for this Christmas. She was so sure that Father Christmas would bring it to her. ”

I told him that maybe Father Christmas will bring it to her. But he replied to me sadly, “No, Father Christmas cannot bring it to her where she is now. I have to give the doll to my mother so that she can give it to her when she goes there. My sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that Mummy will also go to see God very soon, so I thought that she could bring the doll with her to give it to my sister.”

Hearing this, I quickly reached into my wallet and took a few notes and said to the boy, “What if we checked again, just in case if you have enough money?” “OK,” he said, “I hope that I have enough.”

I added some of my money to his without his seeing and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll.

The little boy said, “Thank God for giving me enough money.”

For many Chinese filmgoers, the name of Stephen Chow alone is enough to draw them into the cinema for The Mermaid(《美人鱼》).

The latest film from Hong Kong’s “King of comedy” has had a record-breaking first week, earning 1.79 billion yuan at the box office since Feb 8. It stands a good chance of replacing Monster Hunt as the highest grossing Chinese film by this weekend.

Most mermaid films tell the story of love between humans and mermaids, and this one is no exception. But Chow, the director, writer and producer of this fantasy film, includes the theme of environmental protection into this story.

In recent years, Chinese comedy films have relied on online words or expressions that have become fashionable or used a lot by the media to gain favor with young audiences.
