After watching the game between Zhang Ze and Jo-Wilfred Tsonga for a while, Yao Ming proceeded to Court #1 within the Beijing Olympic Green Tennis Centre to be the witness to the wedding of 8 couples who get into acquaintences and eventually fell in love because of tennis. He presented the couples with life insurance packages from China Life Insurance as well as his blessing/good-wishes for them.

Yao Ming was awarded an Outstanding Contribution Award last night (October 11, 2011) at the 6th China Top 10 Laureus Awards ceremony held in Xiangshan, Ningbo.
Feng Xiaogang (a famous movie director in China) and Andy Lau Tak Wah (famous Hong Kong actor and singer) were special guests of honor to announce the award.
Feng Xiaogang requested Yao Ming to take a photo together with him and Andy Lau; but due to their height disparity, Feng Xiaogang insisted that the photo be taken with Yao Ming stepped down a few steps from the stage to make the 3 of them looked not that different in heights.
Edwin Moses, the chairman of Laureus World Sports Academy, who was also there in Ningbo specifically for the award ceremony, and Cui Dalin, a retired Deputy Minister of theState General Administration of Sports then went upstage to present the award to Yao Ming .

Well, the very first jumbo Airbus A380 (that China Southern Airlines ordered) was delivered from Airbus Customer Delivery Centre in Toulouse, France on October 14 (Friday).
It arrived Beijing Capital International Airport on October 15.
Then it had its first trial flight yesterday (October 16) to Shanghai Pudong International Airport.
It then had its inaugural flight this morning (October 17), flying Beijing to Guangzhou.
It will have a 2-week trial flight within domestic China (flying Beijing ~ Guangzhou ~ Beijing from October 17 ~ 26, and then Beijing ~ Shanghai Pudong ~ Beijing from October 27 ~ 29) before switching to flying international routings.
And today, Yao Ming was amongst the very first few honorable guests to fly from Beijing to Guangzhou on the A380 inaugural flight.
Flight from Toulouse to Beijing (October 14)
Arrival into Beijing Capital International Airport (October 15)
