What about this time? How would mainland Chinese media report on this news?

Would it pretend that nothing had happened? The awarding of the prize had ceased? Or just briefly mention it in a sentence and that’s it?

Talking about this won’t be deleted? I only want to know how mainlanders view that their compatriots won a prize.3#???MMBBlalala ?????2010-10-9 0:54:00

Yesterday I posted “flowers fell in China, pigeons filled the sky” in the subject line and in the message “Congratulations, Congratulations.” But it has been blocked because it is “sensitive”.
