The new matchmaker
A studio in Guangzhou helps single women to find confidence and their Mr Right
In the fast pace of urban life, there seems to be more single women than before, but for Tian Jing the situation has given birth to a business opportunity. Tian calls herself "the matchmaker in modern times". She started a club in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, to help single women find their partners through a series of classes, including makeup and body shaping. Now her club has more than 600 members.
