We Hope For a Miracle
A cartoon currently doing the rounds on Weibo (thanks to Emma Lau for the link and the translation) - the last frame says "we can only hope for a miracle!" showing Ministry of Railways spokesman Wang Yong Ping tied to the train tracks as an out of control train hurtles towards him.

Quote/Unquote: Wang Yong Ping
...During the emergency rescue operations, the area was very complex, and there was a marsh below, so it was very difficult to do our best job. We also had to deal with all the other train cars, so (the earth-moving equipment operator) buried the front car below, covering it with earth, and it was mainly just a case of dealing with the emergency. This was the explanation he offered. Whether you believe it or not, I certainly do.
