Are we not going to talk about how the guy's name is Wang Gang? I mean, that's fine, I just wanted to make sure.

"China reacts to Wang Gang's eggs" could be an alternative title though.

It's just westerners that pronounce that kind of A sound aaaaall the way up our noses. You're correct, according to what I learned from Uncle Roger. :)
