For audiences across the nation, the celebration ceremony to mark the People's Republic of China's 70th birthday started at 10 a.m. on October 1, the National Day. But for many people who were working for this event, it started long before.

Having been to Beijing's Tian'anmen Square many times though, for work or a trip, I'd never imagined I would lie down and sleep at a corner of the Chinese capital's landmark someday. My vlog recorded the part that you haven't seen on that special day.
