In a video going viral, a woman is shown sitting on the hood of a red sedan in a Mercedes-Benz dealership showroom in the central Chinese city of Xian. She is crying and complaining that the new CLS 300 coupe she bought in late March, a 30th birthday present for herself, had started to leak oil even before she drove it out of the store.

Before the Beijing Olympics in 2008, the Chinese capital unveiled a new airport terminal that covered about 200 football fields in floor space, boasted a capacity of 50 million passengers a year, and cost $4 billion.

Spare a thought for the single Chinese woman this Lunar New Year holiday.
