This weekend was pretty much work and going out. On Saturday Tom had his goodbye party in Sanlitun. I hope you had a safe flight home buddy, welcome back to Beijing in February!
We went to a bar called The Tree Under which was in a very random dark alley. If you don't know it's there, you will not find it either. The beers and drinks were really cheap, all night beer for 1 euro a pint. We played some drinking games but i couldn't stay that late out because of work next morning at 9. By not that late i mean around 3am in the morning, next day i was pretty tired! Before going home i had to take some junk-food from this guys cart. Can choose all kinds of chicken and fries, probably half poisonous but it was good! Also have a lot of English books because the place is filled with foreigners who go out drinking. Could never tell your in China when walking around Sanlitun...
After work there was a birthday and i met a famous chinese movie director who was a really cool guy. He has done movies that the chinese government has banned. After the first banned movie he's movie company was forbidden to make a movie for the next 2 years. He fixed this problem by only writing the script and founding it with his friends company. The next movie was also banned :D
Banned movies in China means that they are not allowed in the cinemas but you can buy the DVDs in the street. I have to go and find one of his flicks and check it out.
