Thanks for all! But I saw that it was a little bit larger than the stonechat! Its size like a Oriental Magpie Robin and it seem a little bit fatter than a Stonechat too! Anyway, deep thanks for all again! And sorry for the poor quality photo since it was far from me!

I stay with Brown Shrike. In photo 1 and 4, you can see the dark mark through the eye. The buff underparts not untypical of Brown Shrike - see p214 of the new Birds of HK & S China.

It is a female Stonechat. The tail is way too short for a shrike.
