这是一个奇迹 (zhè shì yī ge qí jī): this is a miracle

In a press conference convened in July 2011 to discuss the Wenzhou train accident, the Ministry of Railways spokesperson, Wang Yongping was asked why a baby girl was found alive in the train wreckage after rescue efforts had been called off, and why the girl was only discovered by those who were in the process of dismantling the train. The following exchange took place:

Wang: This is a miracle. You ask why—

Reporter: This is not a miracle!

[reporters angrily yelling at once.]

Reporter: What I want to ask is this: Why, after you had already announced that there were no survivors, when you had already begun to disassemble the train? Why would there still be a survior?

Wang: Let me answer that. This happened. We truly did find a girl who was still alive. This is the way things are.

See a video of the exchange here.

From blogger, author Li Chengpeng: 这列火车已不是火车,它是一个国家的图腾,这个国家本身就是个奇迹。这个国家需要不断的奇迹来证明优越性。因为它明白,在一个很少有人见过选票,常显示“你所搜索的网页不存在”,大部份农民说不清法院和检察院的区别,看了建党伟业却不敢向先烈们学习建党……的国家,只有不断创造GDP奇迹才可证明优越性。

The headline reads "What friggin Miracle?"

A total of three people were rescued from the train after the government had twice announced that there were no survivors. See here (Chinese).
