CHALLENGING THIS WORLD RECORD

Plan your attempt.

Before you turn on your camera, take some time to think about the world record you are about to set. Will you do it alone, or involve your friends? Do you have all the props you'll need? Have you read the rules?
Film with purpose.

You don't need special equipment or a Hollywood director to document a great record. Focus on telling a great story. Aim to make your video entertaining and concise — rambling intros will scare away viewers. IMPORTANT: If you shoot with your phone, be sure to hold it horizontally.

Rules

- Type the sentence 举头望明月，低头思故乡。 exactly as written, including the comma and the full stop
- Use a tablet and its own on-screen keyboard with a standard Wubi input method (such as Wubi 86, Wubi 98 or Wubi New Century); no external keyboard, and no pinyin or mixed pinyin input
- Enter each character on its own by typing its Wubi code of at least three letters (in Wubi 86: IWF UDI YNE JEG EEE, WQA UDI LNU DTY XTE) and choosing that character; no one- or two-letter short codes, word or phrase codes, predicted or associated words, custom phrases, pasting or text replacement
- The finished text must match the sentence exactly, characters and punctuation; errors must be deleted and corrected before the timer stops, and the time spent fixing them counts
- Timing starts on a stopwatch reading to hundredths of a second, started from zero on camera before the first key is pressed, and stops once the complete, correct sentence shows on screen
- Must be one continuous, unedited video showing the tablet screen, the keyboard and the stopwatch throughout
- Must follow form of current world record holder
- Must provide video evidence
