The movie titled 'Qiuxi' (Joy in Fall) in Chinese tells a story that the Chinese communist army took over the city from Kuoming Tang reign in 1949. It is produced by Guangzhou-based Pearl River Film Studio to officially celebrate the 60th founding anniversary of the People's Republic of China this year.
For the good of the movie production, Changdi Da Malu and Yanjiang Xi Lu along the waterfront beside the bridge are also closed from June 24 to 27, mainly from early morning to noon.
