Do you feel the guy in
the right is somewhat familiar to your eye?
Hmmm ... yap, he is a Chinese basketball star
playing for Houston Rockerts. Then who is the
guy in the left? The star's newly discovered
twin brother?
To find the answer we
may need to turn our attention to Hollywood
first, and to the Universal Studio in
particular.
Some time ago the
Universal confessed to the world that it has
tipped off the most celebrated tomb robbers
on the planet for the third time, and the new
victim is the most splendid graveyard in the
East. Jet Li, who previously in Hero made a
failed attempt on the life of First Emperor
Chin, is coming back with a mandate to sack
China's most sacred city of the head.
Earlier when a Chinese
economist proposed to excavate the tomb and
turn it into a tourist attraction to earn
hard cash, the get-rich-quick guru nearly
died of drowning in an angry wave of online
condemnation. This time when Jet Li's wicked
intention let known to China's netzens, there
is, strangely, no protest, but restrained
excitement.
Then a rumour has
surfaced out of nowhere and spreads across
Chinese cyberspace faster than wide fire. At
this very moment, anyone who browses through
China’s online forums will soon stumble on
a bunch of photos that are said to be of the
incarnations of the terra-cotta
warriors who
guard the underground palace. It is long known that
the clay soldiers were modelled according to
the emperor's real armies, and when some
persons in the photos clearly happen to be
our contemporaries, you go figure the
implications!
So following the
clues, we have conducted some investigations
by letting all these appeared in the photos
try on each other's costumes and hairdos, and
the results are stunning. Now we present our
examinatons here for you to review and to
judge.
