On the eve of the 50th Annecy International Animation Film Festival on June 22 (local time), a French security guard had an unexpected encounter with Laura, an art toy from Dongguan. Julien Eustache, who was on duty at the festival entrance, kept a Laura figurine on his desk in hopes of finding the company that made it. He had received the basketball-loving, starry-eyed girl from Dongguan as a gift at last year's festival and has adored it ever since.

A dazzling parade composed of over 170 dragon boats took center stage in downtown Guangzhou, south China's Guangdong Province, during the Duanwu Festival, which falls on June 19 this year.

Guangdong today releases its national college entrance exam results. May life's road be smooth, and may the ordinary bloom. Every journey home can shine.
