0300TV produced this movie featuring words and works by Ai Weiwei (FAKE Design, Beijing), Jiang Jun (Urban China Magazine), Wang Shu (Amateur Architecture Studio, Hangzhou), Yu Kongjian (Turenscape, Beijing) and Ma Qingyun (SPAMAPS, Shanghai).

Completely filmed before 2008's Beijing Olympics and edited right after its ending, "China According to China" presents a set of thoughts by five local architects on China's current situation and history.

This special isn't an effort to portrait a certain scene [the profiles of each character are quite diverse] but to establish four issues that every Chinese architect has to deal with in today's practice [opening-up, speed, agriculture & education] all of which may set the parameters of future development for Chinese architecture.
