China's leading comedian, Zhao Benshan, personally brushed a work of calligraphy for a fund raising auction during a gala charity show held by northeastern China's Heilongjiang Province TV station on Saturday.
Zhao Benshan's four Chinese characters "Da Ai Wu Jiang," or "Boundless Love," fetched 200,000 yuan. Zhao joked that his work was not worth that much and said that he would send two more to the enterprise that bought the calligraphy.
