During the National Day holiday, a special wedding held in Baishan, Northeast China's Jilin province and Luoyang, Central China's Henan province, simultaneously touched thousands of people. Due to his heavy work load, Guo Yangyang, a firefighter with the Baishan firefighting detachment, couldn't get time off to go back to his hometown in Luoyang to marry the woman he loves. After several consultations, the couple decided to hold the wedding via live video in the two locations.
