The Taiwan High Speed Rail (Traditional Chinese: 台灣高速鐵路, also known as the THSR) is Taiwan's high-speed rail network, running approximately 335.50 kilometers (208 mi) from Taipei City to Kaohsiung City, which began operations on January 5, 2007. Adopting Japan's Shinkansen technology for the core system, the THSR uses the Taiwan High Speed 700T train, manufactured by a consortium of Japanese companies, most notably Kawasaki Heavy Industries. The total cost of the project is currently estimated to be US$15 billion, and is the one of the largest privately funded transport schemes to date. Express trains capable of travelling at up to 300 km/h travel from Taipei City to Kaohsiung City in roughly 90 minutes as opposed to 4-6 hours by conventional rail, although regular trains take a scheduled two hours when making all stops.

Imperial Consort Zhen (Chinese: 珍妃) (February 27, 1876 - August 15, 1900), popularly known as the "Pearl Concubine", was an Imperial Consort of the Guangxu Emperor (b.1871-d.1908) of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in China.

Named Lady Tatala (他他拉), she was the daughter of Changxu of the Tatala clan and younger sister of the Imperial Consort Jin (瑾妃) (1874 - 1924) who also was married to the Emperor. Thus, both sisters were married to the same husband.

Consort Zhen was the favourite concubine of the Guangxu Emperor. She entered the Forbidden City in 1888. Soon after that, she married the Emperor on February 25, 1889 and was granted the title of "Zhen Fei" (Pearl Concubine).
