A Chinese manager outsourced his 12-year-old daughter's homework to nine of his employees.

The senior executive's plan was disclosed when one of his disgruntled workers told a local newspaper.

The worker, who gave his name as Mr Chen, said it took three days to finish the work. "We stayed up late for two nights," he said. "The girl was quite demanding. She only needed to do one of the four options but insisted on doing them all, without getting involved herself in any way."

Students were asked to follow their parents to their home towns and either draw a picture, create a video, take photographs or write an essay about the changes over the past decades.

Mr Chen, a professional photographer, said he was in charge of taking the pictures.
