Taiwan supermodel-actress Lin Chiling will be a co-host at this year's Mid-Autumn Festival Gala held by Beijing-based China Central Television (CCTV), QQ.com reports.
The gala's director, Guo Jihong, explained at a press conference last week that Lin was chosen mainly because of her eye-catching performance in the latest blockbuster "Red Cliff," which has become the most bankable domestic film.
The gala will be broadcasted live by CCTV-1, CCTV-4 and CCTV-9 during the Mid-Autumn Festival on September 14.
It will highlight the Olympics and quake relief efforts, according to the director.
