"I am very pleased to meet President Chabo (查波) . Welcome to China for a state visit, and welcome to the delegation and ministers you have brought. Since you took office as President, Mozambique has made new achievements in economic and social development, and I congratulate you."
In April, Beijing (北京) is full of spring and sunshine. On the afternoon of the 21st, the Great Hall of the People was brightly lit, and President Xi Jinping (习近平) warmly welcomed Mozambican President Chabo (查波), the first African head of state to visit China this year. This is the sixth foreign guest that President Xi Jinping (习近平) has met in Beijing (北京) in just over a week.
This spring, leaders from all over the world have been visiting China intensively. President Xi Jinping (习近平) has been engaging in in-depth exchanges with various countries and sectors through various means, and China is ushering in a busy "diplomatic season." In a world undergoing major changes, China's increasingly prominent role is being witnessed, and "looking east" has become a mighty trend of the times.
Promoting unity and cooperation, sharing development opportunities, upholding fairness and justice... President Xi Jinping (习近平) personally plans and directs China's major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics, providing the most valuable stability and certainty for a turbulent world, and leading China to become an irreplaceable mainstay in the global chaos.
(I)
February 4th, the Beginning of Spring in the lunar calendar. In Beijing (北京), two head-of-state diplomatic activities attracted global attention - President Xi Jinping (习近平) held a video meeting with Russian President Putin (普京) and spoke with US President Trump (特朗普) by telephone.
It is not common in Chinese diplomacy to interact with the leaders of Russia and the United States on the same day. In the face of a turbulent international situation, President Xi Jinping (习近平) has creatively deepened strategic communication with major powers, demonstrating China's responsibility as a major country.
Relations between major powers affect the world situation. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the establishment of the China-Russia strategic partnership of coordination and the 25th anniversary of the signing of the China-Russia Treaty of Good-Neighborliness and Friendly Cooperation; China and the United States will respectively host the APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting and the G20 Leaders' Summit. The in-depth exchanges on the day of the Beginning of Spring are aimed at steering the evolution of relations between major powers this year.
Since the beginning of the year, mainstream international media have been paying close attention to China's busy diplomacy and its role this year. The American magazine *Forbes* published an article on its website saying that China is almost daily rolling out the red carpet to welcome foreign dignitaries seeking a more stable development environment.
From January 4th to 7th, at the invitation of President Xi Jinping (习近平), South Korean President Lee Jae-myung (李在明) paid a state visit to China, realizing mutual visits between the heads of state of China and South Korea within two months; almost simultaneously, from January 4th to 8th, Irish Prime Minister Martin (马丁) paid an official visit to China, the first visit by an Irish Prime Minister in 14 years; in the following month, Canadian Prime Minister Carney (卡尼), Finnish Prime Minister Orpo (奥尔波), British Prime Minister Starmer (斯塔默), and Uruguayan President Orsi (奥尔西) also followed one after another...
"'The New Year lasts until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.' Your visit to China during the Chinese New Year is like visiting relatives and friends, reflecting the close and high-level nature of Sino-German relations," President Xi Jinping (习近平) said when he met with German Chancellor Merz (默茨) at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse (钓鱼台国宾馆) on February 25th, the ninth day of the first lunar month.
From the beginning of the year to the Spring Festival, from neighboring countries to Western countries and Latin American countries, Beijing (北京) has ushered in a wave of eye-catching "visits to China." After the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, Turkmenistan, Spain, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, Vietnam, Mozambique... Politicians from many countries came to China intensively, and China's diplomacy in the spring reached a series of climaxes.
"When you first came to China in 2023, I told you that we should build China-Spain relations with strategic stability, and we have done it. In the past three years, despite the turbulent international situation, China-Spain relations have always developed steadily, injecting stability into China-Europe relations." On April 14th, facing Spanish Prime Minister Sanchez (桑切斯), who visited China for the fourth time in four years, President Xi Jinping (习近平) looked back on the exchanges between the two sides in recent years and pointed the way for the next development of China-Spain relations.
It is good for relatives to be close, and it is good for neighbors to be friendly. Welcome ceremony, talks, signing ceremony, joint meeting with representatives of Chinese and Vietnamese youth, welcome banquet, cordial farewell... On April 15th, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee and President Xi Jinping (习近平) and General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Nguyen Phu Trong (苏林) had long and in-depth exchanges on overall and strategic issues of common concern, and reached many new important consensuses. On April 7th, Nguyen Phu Trong (苏林) was just elected as the President of Vietnam, and this visit was his first visit abroad after being elected.
Knowing each other knows no distance, and those with common aspirations overcome mountains and seas. In the evening of April 21st, President Xi Jinping (习近平) and Mozambican President Chabo (查波) jointly witnessed the signing of a series of cooperation documents between the two sides. Signing, exchanging documents, shaking hands... More than 20 cooperation documents, the ceremony lasted nearly 20 minutes. One round of warm applause after another celebrated the upgrading of China-Mozambique relations to a new era of China-Mozambique community with a shared future, and also demonstrated the vigorous vitality of working together to build a new era of all-weather China-Africa community with a shared future.
The international community has never been so eager to pay attention to China and eager to get closer to China as it is today. The continuous "visits to China" vividly demonstrate the aspirations of all countries for peace and stability, their support for win-win cooperation, and their emphasis on China's opportunities, powerfully demonstrating that "virtue is not alone, it will surely have neighbors."

How to understand China today?
On the morning of January 16th, in front of the huge Chinese painting "This Land So Rich in Beauty" in the Great Hall of the People, President Xi Jinping (习近平) accepted the credentials presented by 18 ambassadors to China. In his subsequent speech, President Xi Jinping (习近平) told the newly arrived envoys the story of "blind men touching an elephant."
"If you touch a leg, you say that the elephant is a pillar; if you touch its belly, you say that the elephant is a wall. But it is not a complete elephant. China's development is also unbalanced, and its culture is also diversified. To understand China, you need to have a comprehensive impression and fully understand a real China."
President Xi Jinping's (习近平) words are addressed to the ambassadors to China and to the wider world.
"China's door to opening up will only open wider and wider, and it will inject more certainty and new impetus into the world through high-quality development, so as to achieve common development and a beautiful community."
People are talking about the new phenomenon of Chinese diplomacy: more and more foreign leaders are visiting various parts of China during their visits to China, and comprehensively and deeply understanding the real and three-dimensional China in their on-the-spot visits.
At noon on February 26th, German Chancellor Merz (默茨) flew from Beijing (北京) to Hangzhou (杭州), Zhejiang (浙江) Province, and came to Unitree Technology to interact with humanoid robots at zero distance. The executives of about 30 leading German companies who accompanied the visit raised their mobile phones one after another to record this futuristic moment.
Irish Prime Minister Martin (马丁) chose Shanghai (上海) as one of the stops on his visit to China because "Shanghai (上海) is an extraordinary city with a magnetic attraction." What impressed him was that an Irish company engaged in food trade and research, after settling in Shanghai (上海), has expanded from the initial few employees to more than 1,400 employees after years of development, showing the huge potential of economic and trade cooperation between Ireland and China.
This year is the first year of China's "15th Five-Year Plan." In the next five years and longer, China will continue to promote high-quality development, expand high-level opening up to the outside world, provide countries with a longer "opportunity list," and open its arms to the world, welcoming more and more countries' enterprises to "swim" in the "sea" of the Chinese market.
President Xi Jinping's (习近平) words are confident and powerful: "We have the determination to firmly promote Chinese-style modernization, and we also have the mind to share development opportunities with the world through high-level opening up to the outside world, and we will inject confidence and impetus into global economic growth with our own development."
A country committed to national rejuvenation has explored a Chinese-style modernization path that is different from the West. What promising future does the vast Chinese opportunity contain?
After arriving in China, Mozambican President Chabo (查波) did not go directly to Beijing (北京), but spent five days visiting Hunan (湖南) and Qinghai (青海). On April 19th, in Ban'yan Village (班彦村), Huzhu Tu Autonomous County (互助土族自治县), Qinghai (青海), which President Xi Jinping (习近平) had visited, Chabo (查波) learned about China's poverty alleviation process in remote rural areas. He sincerely said: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing. Here, I have personally seen China's poverty reduction experience and the victory of poverty alleviation."
Nguyen Phu Trong (苏林), who has visited China many times, chose to take the high-speed rail to Xiong'an New Area (雄安新区) and Guangxi (广西) for visits this time. "My trip to China this time is very special. I took the high-speed rail from north to south... I can feel the balanced development between provinces, which shows that China's regional coordinated development is doing very well."
China, which knows that "the world will be better if China is good; and the world will be better if China is good," has always been committed to breaking down barriers with openness and inclusiveness, transcending zero-sum games with mutual benefit and win-win results, and creating vigorous opportunities for the world with its own high-quality development.
At the end of his visit to China, British Prime Minister Starmer (斯塔默) quoted President Xi Jinping's (习近平) story of "blind men touching an elephant," saying that he should recognize and respect the vastness and complexity of modern China and see all the achievements China has made.
Understand China in walking, and deepen cooperation in exchanges. China-Uzbekistan Joint Statement, China-Vietnam Joint Statement, China-Mozambique Joint Statement... During the "visits to China," a series of cooperation documents were widely reported by the media and frequently swiped the screen, also showing the world: walking with China means walking with stability and certainty, and walking with opportunities and development.
Merz (默茨) said that the German business community attaches great importance to the Chinese market and hopes to further deepen cooperation with China to achieve mutual benefit, win-win results and common development; Sanchez (桑切斯) praised that Chinese companies' investment and cooperation in Spain have effectively promoted Spain's economic development and hopes to strengthen cooperation in trade, investment, new energy and other fields; Nguyen Phu Trong (苏林) said that he believes that China will smoothly implement the "15th Five-Year Plan" and is willing to work with China to improve the level of economic and trade, investment, railway and other infrastructure and tourism cooperation...
"China will fully implement zero-tariff measures for 53 African countries that have diplomatic relations with China from May 1 this year" "Strengthen cooperation in trade, new energy, smart economy and other fields, and encourage cultural, educational, scientific research and sports exchanges" "Seek mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation paths and jointly maintain the stability and smooth flow of industrial and supply chains"...
In the talks, President Xi Jinping's (习近平) confident declarations and sincere invitations have inspired more and more friends from all countries to become "fellow travelers on the road to modernization."
(III)
Since the end of February, the Iranian war has broken out and dragged on, becoming one of the most pressing challenges facing the international community. As a responsible major country, China shows its global vision and its strength to take on responsibilities.
"At present, the changes in the world, the changes of the times, and the changes in history are unfolding in unprecedented ways, and human society is facing a historical choice between peace and war, unity and confrontation, and development and recession."
On April 14th, President Xi Jinping (习近平) met with Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan (哈立德), Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, who was visiting China. At this meeting, President Xi Jinping (习近平) put forward four important proposals on maintaining and promoting peace and stability in the Middle East, providing a Chinese solution for getting out of conflict and achieving peace.
"Adhere to the principle of peaceful coexistence" "Adhere to the principle of national sovereignty" "Adhere to the principle of international rule of law" "Adhere to the overall planning of development and security"... The four proposals fully reflect China's consistent position and active efforts to promote peace and stop war, advocate dialogue to resolve differences, and inject new impetus into promoting the easing of the situation.
There is only one Earth in the universe, and mankind is in the same home. For the sake of the world, we can achieve harmony and achieve each other, and we can also withstand the test of history.
"The Middle East war has affected African countries. China is willing to work with Africa to jointly respond, promote peace together, seek development together." On April 21st, when talking with Mozambican President Chabo (查波), President Xi Jinping (习近平) once again talked about the Middle East situation, conveying the firm willingness to adhere to principles to promote peace, maintain determination to seek development, and cooperate for win-win results with African friends.
We can see responsibility in the wind and rain, and a major country should be like this.
In his New Year's message in 2026, President Xi Jinping (习近平) said that the world today is intertwined with changes and chaos, and some regions are still shrouded in war. China has always stood on the right side of history and is willing to work with all countries to promote world peace and development and promote the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.
The powerful words travel through time and space, releasing lasting power. The charm of the great Eastern country lies fundamentally in the fact that we always stand on the right side of history, on the side of human progress, and on the side of multilateralism.
"Division and confrontation, and zero-sum games are doomed to have no way out. It is unpopular to let the world return to the law of the jungle. Working together in the same boat and uniting and cooperating is the only correct choice." President Xi Jinping's (习近平) profound insights have aroused strong resonance.
Sending a congratulatory message to the 10th Summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States, emphasizing that China will always be a good friend and good partner of Latin American and Caribbean countries; talking with Brazilian President Lula (卢拉) by phone, pointing out that China and Brazil should firmly stand on the right side of history and better safeguard the common interests of the two countries and the Global South... With a broad global vision and a heavy historical responsibility, President Xi Jinping (习近平) is constantly uniting the progressive forces of the world and continuously gathering the mighty power of sharing weal and woe and sharing a common destiny.
"China's cultural tradition is 'harmony is the most valuable,' and what it pursues is 'harmony without uniformity'" - President Xi Jinping (习近平) profoundly pointed out the civilization foundation of China's adherence to the path of peaceful development, guiding the international community to deeply understand the long-standing Chinese civilization.
In the Forbidden City (故宫) with a history of more than 600 years, the word "harmony" on the plaques of the three main halls contains the Chinese people's cherishment and belief in peace, harmony, and amity since ancient times. Finnish Prime Minister Orpo (奥尔波) specially visited the Forbidden City (故宫) in his busy visit schedule, and said with emotion that "this ancient site carrying a heavy history stands quietly in the center of a modern metropolis with skyscrapers, and such a strong contrast is shocking."
In the continuous spring rain, British Prime Minister Starmer (斯塔默) came to Yu Garden (豫园), a classical garden in Jiangnan (江南) that is regarded as the "root" of Shanghai's (上海) urban culture. Appreciating the Yu Garden (豫园) Lantern Festival, buying butterfly pastries, and tasting Chinese tea, Starmer (斯塔默) interacted with the Chinese people along the way. He said that in the current turbulent and fragile international situation, it is crucial for the UK to establish a long-term, stable and comprehensive strategic partnership with China based on mutual respect and mutual trust.
During his visit to China, Uruguayan President Orsi (奥尔西) visited Beijing Foreign Studies University (北京外国语大学) to exchange ideas with teachers and students, and watered the spruce tree symbolizing the friendship between China and Uruguay. As a former history teacher, he was deeply moved: isolationism and unilateralism are not the way to deal with challenges. Chinese civilization has continued for a long time and is committed to creating a future together. Uruguay is a partner with China with common values.
"Maintain the international system with the United Nations as the core and the international order based on international law, promote the realization of an equal and orderly world multipolarization and an inclusive economic globalization, and promote the building of a community with a shared future for mankind." This is a profound reflection based on history, and it is also a Chinese solution for promoting global governance reform and building a new type of international relations for the future.
When the wheels of history are moving forward in twists and turns, the mission and responsibility and the value of the times of major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics are becoming more and more prominent. Under the guidance of Xi Jinping's (习近平) diplomatic thought and the leadership of President Xi Jinping's (习近平) head-of-state diplomacy, China, which is unswervingly following the path of peaceful development, is continuously conveying the warmth, confidence and strength of spring to the world.

At the forefront of scientific and technological innovation, young researchers are working together to overcome key core technologies; in bustling workshops, young craftsmen are carefully crafting each piece of equipment vital to the nation; on small platforms, volunteers are passing on knowledge and warmth to children in remote mountain areas... Dedicating their ideals through hard work, interpreting responsibility through dedication, and writing the chapters of their youth on the land of the motherland is a vivid portrayal of the vast number of young people today.
"I hope you will have lofty ideals, be determined to work hard, lead the vast number of young people to integrate their personal pursuits into the overall situation of national development, constantly create new achievements based on their respective positions, and contribute the strength of youth on the new journey."
On the occasion of the May Fourth Youth Day, Xi Jinping (习近平), General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, replied to representatives of the winners of the China Youth May Fourth Medal and the New Era Youth Pioneer Award, extending festive congratulations and sincere expectations to young people of all ethnic groups across the country, which greatly inspired and encouraged the vast number of young people fighting on all fronts.
This year is the opening year of the "15th Five-Year Plan," and it is the right time for young people to make contributions.
When he learned that he had won the 2026 China Youth May Fourth Medal, Qiu Kunfeng (邱昆峰), Dean of the School of Earth Sciences and Resources at China University of Geosciences (Beijing) (中国地质大学（北京）), was discussing field work plans with his team members.
From his first time going down a well after graduating from undergraduate studies to achieving a number of scientific research results today, Qiu Kunfeng has written a chapter belonging to Chinese geological youth with his actual achievements. "I will continue to base myself on the front line of teaching and scientific research, bravely break into the 'no-man's land' of science and technology, focus on solving 'bottleneck' problems, and make new contributions with practical work."
The galaxy is boundless, the journey is not over; time waits for no one, seize every minute. At the space launch site, a team with an average age of over 30 years old is holding up "Shenzhou" to fly into the sky, inspiring the style of youth with a fighting attitude.
"The aerospace industry is a major tool of the country, and rocket development is a hard-core responsibility." Liu Zhong (刘忠), Party Branch Secretary of the General Assembly Division of the First Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (中国航天科技集团有限公司), said that in the "15th Five-Year Plan," they will continue to promote the spirit of manned spaceflight, go all out to ensure the complete success of major space launch missions, and write the responsibility of aerospace youth.
The digital wave is surging forward, and the vast number of young people are not only participants in the construction of a strong network country, but also a vital force in the development of digital China.
"The General Secretary's earnest expectations have pointed out the direction for us. As a Communist Youth League organization that has won the honor of 'National May Fourth Red Flag Communist Youth League Committee,' we deeply feel that our mission is glorious and our responsibility is heavy." Zhang Xiaoyi (张笑懿), Secretary of the Guangdong Unicom Communist Youth League Committee (广东联通团委), said that they will continue to integrate their personal ideals into the construction of a strong network country and digital China, and make new achievements in the front-line positions of scientific and technological innovation, digital villages, network security, and major communication security.
Adapting real cases into situational dramas, restoring common traps such as online addiction and fraud, and letting children learn to protect themselves in an immersive experience... Tang Huanran (唐焕然), a fourth-level senior prosecutor of the Seventh Procuratorial Department (Department of Juvenile Prosecution) of the Fifth Branch of the Chongqing Municipal People's Procuratorate (重庆市人民检察院), innovated popular legal dramas and entered more than 3,000 primary and secondary schools.
"The seeds of the rule of law need us to guard them with our hearts." Tang Huanran said, "I will lead more young police officers to deeply cultivate the front line of juvenile protection, gather all forces, protect the growth of young people, and escort the future of the motherland."
Striving for excellence and acting practically, the vast number of young people are building the foundation of a strong country with craftsmanship.
0.01 millimeters is the precision of the workpieces that Yang Zhunzheng (杨准正), the leader of Engineering Team 1 of the Engineering Workshop of the Intelligent Equipment Center of Jiangling Motors Co., Ltd. (江铃汽车股份有限公司), manually grinds.
"The General Secretary pointed out that 'leading the vast number of young people to integrate their personal pursuits into the overall situation of national development.' As a young fitter rooted in the front line of automobile manufacturing, I feel deeply." Facing the wave of digital and intelligent transformation of the manufacturing industry, Yang Zhunzheng has crossed borders to study new technologies such as robot operation and maintenance and intelligent production line debugging, and has grown into the first batch of intelligent equipment operation and maintenance technicians in Jiangling. "I will train more compound talents of 'traditional fitter + intelligent operation and maintenance' and achieve better results in the opening year of the '15th Five-Year Plan.'"
"In an era where everyone has the opportunity to shine, as long as you work hard, youth has unlimited possibilities." From a courier warehouse manager to a civil aviation pilot, Wang Qinjin (汪勤金), the responsible pilot of SF Airlines Co., Ltd. (顺丰航空有限公司), has handed over a fighting answer sheet with 6,600 hours of safe flight. "As a member of the express delivery industry, I will adhere to loving what I do and delving into my work, lead more young pilots to practice their skills solidly, and encourage more young people in new employment groups to work hard."
During the "May Day" holiday, Sun Hongjun (孙宏君), an employee of the Digitalization Work Department of the State Grid Shandong Electric Power Company Dongying Power Supply Company (国网山东省电力公司东营供电公司), still sticks to the front line of work, carrying out network inspections and situation monitoring, and meticulously investigating loopholes and hidden dangers.
"We will continue to temper our business capabilities with a meticulous attitude, work hard to practice our skills, deeply cultivate technological innovation, and guard the network security defense line of the power grid with the power of youth." Facing the future, Sun Hongjun is full of energy.
At the grass-roots level, the vast number of young people serve the people and dedicate themselves wholeheartedly, watering the flowers of their dreams with the sweat of their youth.
Repairing street lights, repairing public toilets, building libraries, developing industries to get rich... Zhang Guifang (张桂芳), the post-95 Party branch secretary of Sanjia Village (三家村), Shilin Town (石林镇), Shancheng District (山城区), Hebi City (鹤壁市), Henan Province (河南省), led the villagers to overcome difficulties and make the village look brand new.
"I want to dedicate my youth to the forefront of rural development and grass-roots governance, and do every small and practical thing for the masses with my heart and soul, and lead the villagers to unite and work together to seek development and live a down-to-earth life." Zhang Guifang is full of confidence.
Between spring and summer, Xieyite Primary School (谢依特小学) in Halajun Township (哈拉峻乡), Artush City (阿图什市), Xinjiang (新疆), is full of greenery. Last year, the Western China Program Volunteer Service Team for Border Education at Xieyite Primary School won the 2025 China Youth May Fourth Medal Collective. Yan Zefeng (闫泽峰), the captain of the service team, and his team members wrote a letter to General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平), reporting on their border education situation, and later received a reply from the General Secretary.
"We deeply cultivate classroom teaching, not only focusing on improving students' academic performance, but also paying attention to the all-round development of children." After the volunteer service period expires this year, Yan Zefeng will continue to take root in the border areas, "adhere to the original intention of volunteer service, integrate the blood of youth into the grass-roots education cause, and write a regretless youth answer sheet in the fertile soil of the border areas."

Ahead of the "May Day" holiday, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the National Supervisory Commission (中央纪委国家监委) publicly announced eight typical cases of violating the spirit of the Eight-Point Regulation of the Central Committee, releasing a strong signal of unremittingly implementing the spirit of the Eight-Point Regulation of the Central Committee and continuously correcting the persistent problem of "four forms of formalism, bureaucracy, hedonism, and extravagance" (四风). The holiday period is a key node where "four forms of formalism, bureaucracy, hedonism, and extravagance" (四风) problems are prone to occur.
Nodes are also "testing points." Nowadays, the phenomenon of leading cadres "disappearing during holidays" has disappeared, and the sense of responsibility of consciously sticking to one's post with a "constantly uneasy" feeling has become stronger; the "four forms of formalism, bureaucracy, hedonism, and extravagance" (四风) problems such as excessive drinking and eating in violation of regulations have decreased, and the time spent serving the people has increased... This ebb and flow is the result of persistently grasping work style and rectifying Party conduct.
The concept is deeply rooted in people's hearts. From disciplinary rigidity to life inertia, integrity and self-discipline are becoming a working attitude and a way of life. Putting time and energy into creating benefits for the people, "the further the unhealthy tendencies are away from us, the closer the masses will be to us."
The system prevents problems before they arise. Pre-holiday integrity talks, sending integrity reminder text messages, and targeted correction of problems that are prone to occur during the holidays... Every festival is a command, "If we just keep grasping it like this, it will always be effective, making it a habit and an atmosphere."
"Being both honest and diligent, both clean and capable," adhering to one node after another, shows true colors and demonstrates responsibility.

Labor is the most glorious, labor is the most noble, labor is the most great, and labor is the most beautiful.
On the occasion of the "May Day" International Labor Day, General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) extended festive greetings and sincere condolences to the vast number of working people across the country, pointing out: "The vast number of working people are closely united around the Party, striving for progress and daring to innovate and create," and "I hope that the vast number of working people will vigorously promote the spirit of model workers, the spirit of labor, and the spirit of craftsmanship."
This year marks the 105th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China and the first year of the "Fifteenth Five-Year Plan." The vast number of workers, based on their positions and diligently cultivating their fields, interpret their original aspirations with perseverance, write their responsibilities with struggle, and forge their ingenuity with dedication, contributing wisdom and strength to vigorously promoting Chinese-style modernization.
Perseverance is a simple promise.
Sticking to their posts and diligently practicing, the figures of model workers shine brightly. The vast number of model workers love their jobs, are willing to dedicate themselves, are rooted in the front line, and work persistently, using day-to-day perseverance to interpret their original aspirations and responsibilities.
At 5:30 in the morning, the morning mist in the Huangshan Scenic Area (黄山风景区) in Anhui Province had not yet dissipated, and the sky was slightly bright. Hu Xiaochun (胡晓春), a national model worker and the 19th "Pine Guardian," had already packed his tools and headed towards the well-known Guest-Greeting Pine (迎客松) in the scenic area. For many years in a row, he has been sticking to his post during the "May Day" holiday.
"There are more tourists during the holidays, so we need to be more attentive to guarding it at all times." While walking slowly, Hu Xiaochun took out a magnifying glass, approached the newly emerging pine needles, and carefully observed their color and growth. After the inspection, he carefully wrote down the current record: wind force, temperature, humidity, growth, pest and disease conditions...
Since taking over the baton of guarding the pine in 2011, Hu Xiaochun has been stationed in the mountains for more than 300 days a year. In the past ten years, he has filled hundreds of Guest-Greeting Pine diaries, totaling more than 1.6 million words. This precious and detailed protection manual provides an important basis for the scientific protection of the ancient pine.
Closing the notebook, Hu Xiaochun quickly walked to the square to guide the flow of people and promote the concept of ecological protection. "Protecting this ancient pine is to protect the beauty of the ecology and contribute to the construction of a beautiful China."
Manufacturing is the foundation of a country and the basis of a strong country, and it is also a stage for the vast number of model workers to show their talents.
During the "May Day" holiday, the intelligent workshop of Goertek Co., Ltd. (歌尔股份有限公司) in Weifang (潍坊), Shandong Province, was buzzing with machines and in good order. Wang Xinfu (王新福), a national model worker and a Goertek assembler and technician, leaned over and stood in front of the new equipment, holding debugging tools and staring at the data on the instrument panel.
"This batch of new equipment is tailored for the virtual reality product production line. The new process needs to be implemented as soon as possible, and we need to seize the progress and ensure the quality during the holidays," said Wang Xinfu.
Daring to tackle tough problems and facing difficulties. More than 20 years ago, Wang Xinfu was still a green apprentice who loved to study. When others got off work, he was still repeatedly disassembling and assembling parts in front of the machine tool. It was this spirit of drilling that allowed him to grow from an ordinary fitter to a leading craftsman in the industry.
Taking advantage of the debugging gap, Wang Xinfu called the young technicians to his side and taught them hand-in-hand. The model worker and craftsman innovation studio he led has overcome 220 topics and trained 180 highly skilled talents, injecting a continuous stream of talent momentum into industrial upgrading.
Struggle is a solid step.
Socialism is built through hard work, and happiness is achieved through struggle. On the land of China, one simple and enterprising figure after another, one deeply moving story after another, vividly sings the song of workers in the new era.
In the city streets, the busy pace has never stopped. On May 1, Fan Jiazhi (范家志), a food delivery rider in Zhongxian County (忠县), Chongqing (重庆), was neatly dressed and carrying a food box, shuttling between buildings and alleys. This is his seventh year in the food delivery industry.
As a member of the new employment group, he gets up early and works late all year round, regardless of wind or rain. The more concentrated the flow of people and the greater the demand during the holidays, the more hurried his pace is. "I run dozens of kilometers every day, just to deliver every hot meal well."
As of February 2026, Chongqing has built 36,000 new employment-friendly scenarios. "When I'm tired or thirsty, the trade union rider station on the street can provide a place to rest and shelter from the rain. The company also bought us unified accident insurance. With these heart-warming support, I feel more at ease and motivated on the delivery road," said Fan Jiazhi.
From cities to villages, different positions, the same diligence.
In Luojia Township (罗家乡), Longyou County (龙游县), Quzhou (衢州), Zhejiang Province (浙江), the yellow tea plantation is filled with the fragrance of tea. Tea farmers are busy picking and stir-frying tea, and the tea frying machines are running non-stop, creating a busy scene.
Yu Shengbin (余圣彬), a customer manager of the State Grid Quzhou Power Supply Company (国网衢州供电公司), was also busy during the "May Day" holiday. He went to tea gardens and tea factories to check lines, leakage protectors, and switch knives, not letting go of any potential safety hazards.
"Tea frying cannot be separated from a continuous and stable power supply. We must use reliable power supply to help tea farmers expand their sales channels and increase their income," said Yu Shengbin.
Dedication is a persistent pursuit.
Master craftsmen of a great power are the cornerstone and pillars of the Chinese nation's mansion. They create high-quality products with ingenuity and build monuments with hard work, pursuing excellence and achieving extraordinary achievements in front-line positions.
During the "May Day" holiday, in the assembly workshop of CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles Co., Ltd. (中车长春轨道客车股份有限公司), young craftsman Yao Zhihui (姚智慧) held a cable, skillfully peeled off the outer skin, separated each slender wire, matched the wiring terminals, and precisely crimped them - a set of connectors serving the electrical circuits of the Fuxing (复兴) high-speed train was assembled, with smooth, precise and standardized movements.
"The wiring harness is to the train as the nerves are to the human body. Every wire is related to safety, and there must be no mistakes." As a practitioner of the key process of high-speed rail assembly, Yao Zhihui has developed the hard skills of "one-stop shop" for craftsmanship.
From Harmony (和谐) to Fuxing, to the world's fastest high-speed rail CR450 EMU, Yao Zhihui has participated in the assembly of 15 Chinese high-speed rail models in the 16 years since he started his career, witnessing the historic leap of Chinese high-speed rail from catching up to running side by side and then to leading.
"It's a great happiness to work in the same direction as China's high-speed rail!" Yao Zhihui said firmly.
From high-speed rail assembly workshops to cultural relic restoration workshops, the spirit of craftsmanship is passed down from generation to generation.
In Guanghan (广汉), Sichuan Province (四川), in the cultural relic restoration room of the Sanxingdui Museum (三星堆博物馆), Guo Hanzhong (郭汉中), a senior technical worker in cultural relic restoration and deputy director of the cultural relic preservation department, leaned over the table and passed on restoration experience to younger generations: "When splicing bronze fragments, the force should be even, the eyes should be accurate, and there is no room for sloppiness."
From apprentice to national top cultural relic restoration master, Guo Hanzhong has used a pair of skillful hands to revitalize more than 6,000 cultural relics that have been sleeping for thousands of years in more than 40 years of research, reproducing their brilliance.
Upholding integrity and innovation, passing on the torch. Guo Hanzhong is not limited to traditional practices, but integrates 3D technology, scientific testing, and other technologies into restoration work, filling many technical gaps. "Cultural relics are living history, and we must strive to contribute to the inheritance of the seeds of civilization from generation to generation," said Guo Hanzhong.
Dreaming of mountains and seas, not feeling far away; the road ahead is long, stride forward. On the new journey of Chinese-style modernization, the vast number of working people are down-to-earth, striving for progress, and striving to make new and greater contributions to the development of the Party and the country.

Yushu Technology settles in Chongqing (重庆), choosing Dadukou District (大渡口区). Some ask: Why this once old industrial area?
On April 28, the Yushu Technology Western Innovation Operation Center officially began operations in Dadukou District (大渡口区). Yushu Technology will join hands with Dadukou District (大渡口区) to jointly build projects such as the "Embodied Intelligence Robot Laboratory" for humanoid robots, and jointly promote the high-quality development of Chongqing's (重庆) intelligent robot industry. Previously, Yushu Technology's wholly-owned subsidiary, Chongqing Yuyi Technology Co., Ltd. (重庆宇弈科技有限公司), also settled in Dadukou District (大渡口区).
This two-way commitment is both a recognition of local development by the enterprise and a firm step in Dadukou District's (大渡口区) transformation and upgrading. It prospered because of steel and was once an important national steel industrial base. Later, Chongqing Iron and Steel (重庆钢铁) relocated for environmental protection, the sound of machines suddenly fell silent, and Dadukou District (大渡口区) once fell into the predicament of industrial "hollowing out."
How can the old industrial base roll uphill and overcome obstacles? Dadukou District (大渡口区) adheres to grasping both aspects: on the one hand, deeply exploring the existing industrial foundation and promoting the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries; on the other hand, aiming at cutting-edge new tracks and cultivating new quality productive forces.
Upgrading traditional industries, old trees sprout new branches—
In Chongqing International Composites Co., Ltd. (重庆国际复合材料股份有限公司), robotic arms cooperate precisely, and bundles of pure white high-modulus glass fiber are automatically wound into rolls, waiting to be sent overseas.
"Don't underestimate this bundle of silk. It looks soft, but it hides great potential." Liu Weiting (刘伟廷), deputy general manager of the company, introduced, "A bundle of primary silk is composed of 4,000 monofilaments with a diameter of only about 11 microns, with high technical content and product added value."
A thin thread connects a broad industrial landscape. From energy-saving doors and windows to 100-meter-level wind power blades, from high-speed rail sleepers to ultra-high voltage equipment serving the "Xinjiang Electricity to Chongqing (疆电入渝)" project... Through continuous technological innovation, International Composites Co., Ltd. (国际复材公司) has derived hundreds of downstream products, with an annual production capacity of over 1.2 million tons, ranking among the top in the industry.
The upgrading of material enterprises is a microcosm of Dadukou District's (大渡口区) promotion of the transformation of traditional industries. The district has continued to increase investment in technological transformation. In the past three years, it has implemented more than 80 technological transformation projects, completed more than 3 billion yuan in technological transformation investment, and steadily increased the numerical control rate of key processes in industrial enterprises above designated size, accelerating the development towards intelligent, green, and integrated development. Support key enterprises such as Akita Gear (秋田齿轮) to iterate and upgrade, and promote the extension, supplementation, and strengthening of the industrial chain of auto and motorcycle parts, environmental protection equipment, and new materials.
Cultivating emerging industries, new seedlings grow into forests—
While deeply cultivating existing stock, Dadukou District (大渡口区) is anchoring emerging tracks, making precise moves, and promoting the clustering of emerging industries.
As a leading enterprise that Dadukou District (大渡口区) focuses on introducing and cultivating, Zhongyuan Huiji Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (中元汇吉生物技术股份有限公司) gives full play to its leading role, bringing together 218 upstream and downstream enterprises to form a complete ecosystem from research and development, production to service, helping the region build an innovative development pattern for the smart medical equipment industry.
Emerging industries are blooming in multiple locations and advancing in clusters. In the field of new-generation electronic information manufacturing, leading enterprises such as Hikvision (海康威视) and Ezviz Smart Home (萤石智能家居) have successively settled, with an output value of over 10 billion yuan for three consecutive years; in the high-end motorcycle industry track, electric off-road motorcycles developed and manufactured by Chongqing Qiulong Technology Co., Ltd. (重庆虬龙科技有限公司) are sold to more than 50 countries and regions, becoming a global benchmark in the segmented field; emerging industries such as robots and energy-saving and environmental protection equipment continue to emerge.
Optimizing the business environment, living water nourishes vitality—
"From the initial site selection and landing of the project to administrative approval, from market docking in the early stage of production to factor guarantees in the production process, everything went smoothly, achieving 'signing the contract in the same year, putting it into production in the same year, and seeing results in the same year.'" Han Fei (韩飞), general manager of Siwujiang (Chongqing) Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. (思无疆（重庆）农业发展有限公司), said that the company will increase its capital and expand production this year, expanding a 10,000-square-meter intelligent factory.
Behind the company's recognition is Dadukou District's (大渡口区) unremitting efforts to continuously optimize the business environment: establishing a "land + housekeeper" package supply model, shortening the project landing cycle by more than 50%, and improving approval efficiency by 50%; optimizing service brands, going deep into the front line to collect corporate demands, and accurately formulating support measures with "one enterprise, one policy" to transform the "temperature" of the business environment into the "speed" of industrial development; innovating and constructing a investment promotion work system to form a "one game of chess" investment promotion synergy from top to bottom, ensuring that projects can be signed, landed steadily, built quickly, and developed well...
Serving enterprises in place, the overall development of the district is advancing. The "gray steel city" where steel flowers splashed in the past has now become a modern industrial new city with intelligent manufacturing surging. In 2025, Dadukou District (大渡口区) achieved a regional GDP of 54.33 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.8%.

In recent years, BeiDou satellite navigation technology has been deeply applied in agriculture, promoting the accelerated transformation of traditional agriculture to smart agriculture. A series of new equipment and applications have allowed the BeiDou system to move from the sky to the fields, becoming the "precise benchmark" and "smart brain" of modern agriculture. What new changes has the "well-built in the sky, well-used on the ground" BeiDou system brought to spring planting and management? The reporter conducted an interview.
More comprehensive——
Drone plant protection, precision sowing, extending from single navigation to intelligentization of the entire industrial chain
In Yuwan Family Farm, Lianhe Village, Longzheng Street, Hai'an City (海安市), Jiangsu Province (江苏省), wheat seedlings are in the critical period of returning to green and jointing. For thousands of acres of wheat, the "protagonist" of field management is a plant protection drone equipped with the BeiDou system. With one-click start on the mobile phone, it can fly autonomously according to the preset route and evenly spray the atomized liquid medicine on the wheat seedlings.
During the spring plowing season, agricultural machinery operators in Linhe District (临河区), Bayannur City (巴彦淖尔市), Inner Mongolia (内蒙古) are driving intelligent seeders equipped with the BeiDou system to carry out operations, and the efficiency has been significantly improved. "Without over-relying on experience and eyesight, we can sow more than 140 acres a day," said Tian Tieshuan (田铁栓), an agricultural machinery operator.
In Dandong City (丹东市), Liaoning Province (辽宁省), it is only necessary to set the coordinates and operating parameters of the plot on the screen of a tablet computer, and the agricultural machinery can plan the route and realize automatic driving. "In the spring plowing stage, we need to raise seedlings first and then ridge them. I only need to complete the farmland survey and input the route, and the tractor can do it by itself with a sieve," said Yin Guoxing (尹国星), a Atractylodes lancea grower.
In recent years, BeiDou satellite navigation technology has been deeply integrated into all aspects of agricultural cultivation, planting, management, harvesting, and transportation, greatly improving the intelligentization level and production efficiency of China's agriculture. In spring plowing production, BeiDou system-assisted drone plant protection, agricultural machinery intelligent driving, precision ridging and sowing, and other models have been deepened and applied.
"The 'National Smart Agriculture Action Plan (2024-2028)' and the 'Guiding Opinions of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs on Vigorously Developing Smart Agriculture,' etc., have made deployments in the 'BeiDou + Smart Agriculture' aspect, driving the upgrading of BeiDou applications in China's agricultural field towards intelligentization and precision, and have extended from single navigation to intelligentization of the entire industrial chain, significantly improving agricultural production efficiency and resource utilization, and contributing to increasing yield per unit area and the construction of high-standard farmland," said relevant experts from the China Satellite Navigation and Positioning Association (中国卫星导航定位协会).
More precise——
New infrastructure promotes centimeter-level positioning, and various technologies combined equip farmland with "smart eyes"
The development of "BeiDou + Smart Agriculture" is inseparable from the accelerated construction of new infrastructure. Taking BeiDou precision agriculture as an example, in scenarios such as agricultural machinery automatic driving, precision cultivation, uniform sowing, and variable fertilization, centimeter-level positioning accuracy has greatly changed the traditional agricultural dilemma of 耕地歪一寸、丰收差一斗 (gēng dì wāi yī cùn, fēng shōu chā yī dòu - "If the cultivated land is off by an inch, the harvest will be short by a peck," meaning that even small errors in farming can lead to significant losses in yield).
How is this accuracy achieved?
"We have deployed more than 5,000 ground-based augmentation reference stations across the country to continuously provide agricultural machinery with location benchmarks and real-time correction services," said Yang Zhangbing (杨张兵), general manager of Sinan Navigation's (司南导航) intelligent driving business unit. When agricultural machinery equipped with BeiDou smart terminals is operating, it not only receives BeiDou satellite navigation signals, but also synchronously obtains high-precision differential data from nearby augmentation stations. The system can output centimeter-level precise positioning in real time through rapid calculation and error correction, allowing agricultural machinery to "see clearly" its own position and "walk straight" on the field.
The satellite-based augmentation service that has developed in recent years can directly obtain correction data, solving the problem of no base station signals in remote areas, allowing agricultural machinery to achieve precise operations in a wider area. "Satellite-based augmentation refers to broadcasting correction information to users through satellite navigation augmentation signal repeaters carried by geostationary orbit satellites, to improve the positioning accuracy of the original satellite navigation system. In Northeast China (东北), Xinjiang (新疆) and other places, we can complete centimeter-level positioning within 2 minutes through satellite-based augmentation, and most areas can control it within 5 minutes. The accuracy of straight lines and handover operations is better than 2.5 centimeters, allowing agricultural machinery to drive straighter when plowing and harrowing," said Chen Jinpei (陈金培), CEO of Qianxun Location (千寻位置). At the same time, overcoming the impact of geomagnetic storms and other factors, using ionospheric suppression technology to ensure the fixation rate and accuracy of the agricultural machinery navigation system, making the spring plowing operation service stable.
In addition to high-precision positioning operations, the BeiDou system is also combined with remote sensing, geographic information Internet of Things, big data and other technologies to equip farmland with "smart eyes," realizing the transformation from extensive field management to precise care.
For example, using BeiDou drones for multi-spectral remote sensing field inspections can quickly identify crop growth differences, predict the occurrence area of pests and diseases, and achieve "fixed-point sniper-style" management, eliminating risks in the bud; rice transplanter quality detection uses machine learning and computer vision technology to identify missed seedlings during the operation of the rice transplanter, upload them to the cloud platform in real time, and assist in later seedling replenishment and quality control.
"We are also exploring a 'digital map' based on BeiDou positioning to share the underlying data of plots among various agricultural machinery," Yang Zhangbing (杨张兵) exemplified. In this way, physical weeding equipment can operate according to the trajectory of the rice transplanter, improving weeding efficiency; during harvesting, the combine harvester can also automatically realize harvesting operations according to the previous operating trajectory, further reducing labor costs.

Independent innovation, industrial cooperation, and policy promotion make BeiDou a "new agricultural tool"
According to statistics from the China Satellite Navigation and Positioning Association (中国卫星导航定位协会), in the agricultural field, China has cumulatively promoted and applied more than 2.7 million sets of various BeiDou terminal equipment. The accelerated "flying into ordinary farmland" of BeiDou technology, and satellite navigation becoming a "new agricultural tool" in the hands of farmers, is not only because of the "stars in the sky," but also inseparable from the systematic collaborative support of the entire industrial chain and industrial ecology.
The development of BeiDou is inseparable from independent innovation. In recent years, China has continued to make breakthroughs in the fields of BeiDou chip localization, communication-navigation-sensing integration, and algorithm optimization. The BeiDou industry has the entire chain production capacity from chip modules to terminal equipment, which strongly supports the large-scale integrated application of BeiDou technology. Yang Zhangbing (杨张兵) introduced that Sinan Navigation (司南导航) has completed the self-research of the entire product line of BeiDou chips, boards, and modules. "The technology must be 'hardcore' enough for the implementation of business scenarios to be a natural outcome."
On the other hand, the large-scale application of BeiDou also depends on the collaborative promotion of the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain. At present, many domestic agricultural machinery are carrying out intelligent transformation and upgrading based on BeiDou technology. "Unmanned modification of tractors, rice transplanters, etc., requires the integration of multiple new technologies, and the entire machine manufacturer needs to cooperate closely with BeiDou enterprises," said Guo Jie (郭杰), chairman of Shanghai Mintian Agricultural Machinery Service Co., Ltd. (上海闵田农机服务有限公司).
"Relying on the BeiDou system, the location data of agricultural machinery can be interconnected with our Internet of Things platform, which can timely allocate accessories and service personnel nationwide to ensure the service response efficiency during the peak seasons of spring plowing and autumn harvest," said Wang Liying (王丽颖), Minister of the Information Department of World Agricultural Machinery (沃得农机). Based on the fault information, working hours, and operating status returned by the terminal, they actively push maintenance reminders to agricultural machinery owners to reduce downtime risks; at the same time, they have collected 138 working condition data indicators for analyzing product performance and promoting design improvements and quality improvements.
When it comes to the market, whether it is easy to use and whether the price is reasonable becomes the key to whether growers will pay for it. Yin Guoxing (尹国星) calculated an account: The price of the BeiDou agricultural machinery automatic driving system he purchased is about 9,000 yuan, and the state subsidizes 1/3. One system can be adapted to multiple agricultural tools. He thinks it is very cost-effective. "The manufacturer's installation master will also come to teach the essentials of use. I have already recommended it to many villagers."
In recent years, China's subsidies for the purchase and application of agricultural machinery have continued to expand and increase standards, with preferential subsidies for high-quality machines directly reaching farmers; the agricultural BeiDou assisted driving system has been included in the scope of subsidies for the scrapping and renewal of agricultural machinery. For those who update this type of equipment after scrapping, the standard is increased by 50% on the basis of the subsidy; various regions have increased subsidies to promote the application of BeiDou navigation agricultural machinery. The agricultural machinery purchase subsidy publicity data of various regions shows that in 2024, the sales volume of BeiDou terminals and assisted driving systems enjoying agricultural machinery purchase subsidies is about 80,000 units (sets), exceeding 70,000 units (sets) for three consecutive years, and the application scale of BeiDou agricultural machinery continues to increase.
"At present, BeiDou agricultural machinery still has room for improvement in terms of operating efficiency, accuracy, and fuel consumption. Promoting the application of BeiDou agricultural machinery also requires farmers to have certain technical knowledge and operating skills," relevant experts from the China Satellite Navigation and Positioning Association (中国卫星导航定位协会) suggested, encouraging scientific research institutions and enterprises to strengthen the integrated research and development of BeiDou navigation technology and agricultural machinery, establish data sharing and service platforms, explore more application scenarios of BeiDou navigation in the agricultural field, and at the same time strengthen the training of farmers and agricultural machinery operators to further improve their awareness and ability to use the BeiDou navigation system.

On the occasion of the Youth Day on May Fourth, General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) replied to representatives of the winners of the China Youth May Fourth Medal and the New Era Youth Pioneer Award, pointing out that this year is the opening year of the "15th Five-Year Plan," and it is the right time for young people to make contributions.
During the "May Day" holiday, at the Guangdong Embodied Intelligence Training Ground in Haizhu District (海珠区), Guangzhou (广州), various robots are undergoing immersive training under the operation of young architects and engineers: robotic arms accurately grasp automobile bolts to complete sorting, inspection robots autonomously check for hidden dangers along circuit pipelines, and humanoid robots complete precise operations... At the forefront of technological innovation, the youth of China in the new era are writing a youthful chapter with practical work and dedication.
"Our task today is to simulate a supermarket scene, allowing the W1 robot to pick up and place common bottled beverages in the supermarket," said Deng Yueci (邓岳慈), a post-95s basic engine architect, to Song Lei (宋磊), a post-90s robot remote control operation engineer.
Take a deep breath, the button vibrates, and the arm moves. Song Lei received the task, put on a VR (virtual reality) headset, and began to operate.
As Song Lei's arm moved, the W1 robot's arms also swung accordingly.
"The speed should not be too fast, and pay attention to keeping the trajectory smooth," Deng Yueci instructed. Song Lei manipulated the VR handle to make the robot slowly approach a bottle of mineral water. The robotic arm paused slightly when it came into contact with the water bottle. Within one second, the robot sensed the state of interaction with the object and recorded relevant data.
In Song Lei's eyes, there are many types of robots, but they are all as familiar and tacit as good friends. "When operating, imagine yourself as a robot to achieve a state of 人机合一 (rén jī hé yī - "human-machine unity," a state of perfect coordination between human and machine), keep the body muscles relaxed, and think about the details of the action."
Deng Yueci stared at the sensors, closely monitoring the movement data of the end and joints of the robotic arm. "The grasp of the degree is very important. When taking different materials of beverage bottles, the speed and strength must be slightly different," Deng Yueci said. The more accurate the action and the more precise the cooperation with the robot, the more accurate and comprehensive the data collection will be.
After the remote control operation, the collected data set is transmitted to the server. "The accuracy and comprehensiveness of the data need to reach a very high standard. For example, the retail supermarket scene being tested requires training the robot to identify beverage bottles of different materials and various types of shelves, and collect data separately," Deng Yueci said. One data collection is not enough. It is necessary to expand through simulation and generate new data. When the data reaches more than 100,000, it can enter the next stage—model training.
During automated data collection, Song Lei noticed that the data collected by the robot was in its original format, which was not convenient enough to read and use. How to optimize it? Deng Yueci proposed to rewrite a program to convert the original format into a universal format, improving the effectiveness of the robot's data collection in real operation scenarios.
From carefully and repeatedly collecting data to using simulation data to form a model, and then to deploying the real machine, the work is hard but interesting. "It's a bit like playing a 'level-breaking' game, with a lot of points to explore," Deng Yueci told reporters. "Robots are advancing and growing in diverse scenarios, and we are also constantly growing."
When Song Lei first operated the robot, his hands trembled badly, and he felt dizzy when he put on the headset. He often had to familiarize himself with the venue for a long time, "carefully, first do the simplest actions, such as letting the robot grab boxes, and then try new actions." Now, whether it is a two-finger gripper wheel robot in a retail supermarket scene, or a two-finger gripper and smart phone robot, Song Lei can operate it skillfully in 10 to 30 minutes. Even the large-wheeled inspection robot used in complex workshops, which requires high operator body balance, is no problem for Song Lei to operate.
Even so, whenever a new robot is sent to the training ground and unpacked for training, Song Lei still puts himself in the same position as the robot—a "newcomer" to the training ground. "What can this robot do? How to make it do a good job?" With this in mind, he practices, summarizes experience, and constantly improves his operating skills day after day.
"The development of embodied intelligence technology requires opening up data of multiple modalities in a large number of scenarios," said Ding Ning (丁宁), director of the Guangdong Embodied Intelligence Robot Innovation Center (广东省具身智能机器人创新中心). The training ground is equivalent to a laboratory and a training ground, using real-world needs to test operational capabilities, laying the foundation for robots to enter the front lines of real production and life in the future. These young people on the training ground are playing an important role.
"With lofty ideals and a determination to work hard, these young people repeatedly train and try in the training ground, allowing robots to transition from 'special tools' to 'general intelligent bodies,' and are also making contributions to the development of future industries," said Gao Fang (高芳), secretary of the Party branch and chairman of Guangdong Embodied Intelligence Technology Co., Ltd. (广东省具身智能科技有限公司), the operator of the training ground. Among the company's scientific and technological talents, those born in the 1990s account for 74%.
The vast number of young people integrate their personal pursuits into the overall situation of national development, continuously create new achievements based on their respective positions, and contribute their youthful strength to the new journey.

"While shopping, we also played a parent-child robot game." On May 1st, Mr. Wang (王先生) brought his daughter to the Bailian Xijiao Shopping Center (百联西郊购物中心) in Shanghai and saw a table tennis fun competition being held in the mall's stadium, so the father and daughter signed up. Across the table, the automatic ball machine constantly changed the ball's trajectory, and Mr. Wang (王先生) guided his daughter to swing and catch the ball.
As a strategic partner of the 2026 Shanghai Table Tennis Carnival, Bailian Group (百联集团) launched a table tennis fun competition, holding it in commercial complexes in 5 districts at a rate of "one store per week." Jin Lei (金磊), general manager of Bailian Xijiao Shopping Center (百联西郊购物中心), introduced that the competition is characterized by technology, lightness, and fun. Participants can receive prizes such as coupons based on their scores, which can be used directly in restaurants and retail stores within the mall.
During the "May 1st" holiday, coinciding with the 2026 London World Table Tennis Championships, the Shanghai sports department joined hands with Shanghai University of Sport (上海体育大学) and major shopping malls to create a "second viewing site," inviting many table tennis players to provide live commentary. Caravans drove into business districts and scenic spots, broadcasting the World Table Tennis Championships in real time, equipped with professional commentary and interactive games.
On one hand, the seamless connection between sports events and consumption scenarios, and on the other hand, the renewal and upgrading of the consumption scenarios themselves, novel and fun experiences activate new momentum for consumption growth.
Brown colored contact lenses, pink braids, and a dark blue school uniform. Xiao Wen (小文), a girl from Hunan (湖南), dressed in anime and game attire, attracted a high rate of attention in the crowd. After hearing from social media that the Shanghai Xuhui (上海徐汇) "Metaverse Neo World (元界Neo World)" metaverse block would hold a themed party, Xiao Wen (小文) traveled thousands of miles during the "May 1st" holiday.
Walking into Shanghai Metro Line 12 (上海地铁12号线) leading to the themed party, Xiao Wen (小文) felt as if she was in a "second dimension" world—themed carriages built around multiple game characters, where a casual photo could become a "viral hit."
Arriving at the metaverse block, Xiao Wen (小文) hugged and took photos with the huge plush mascot in the shopping mall, participated in interactions on the square stage, and purchased anime peripheral blind boxes in the trendy toy store...
The "Metaverse Neo World (元界Neo World)" metaverse block is backed by Caohejing Development Zone (漕河泾开发区), bringing together many well-known game companies. By implanting game IPs (intellectual property) into the block, it attracts traffic from the virtual world to offline physical spaces. Jin Jianhong (金建红), Deputy Director of the Xuhui District Culture and Tourism Bureau (徐汇区文化和旅游局), introduced that merchants provide players who come to check in with beverage upgrades, complimentary desserts, and other discounts. In response to players' special needs such as makeup changes, the block and shopping mall also set up exclusive makeup rooms and prop storage cabinets.
Similar attempts are being carried out simultaneously in major business districts in Shanghai. At the outdoor lawn of Raffles City Changning (长宁来福士), Starbucks' (星巴克) "Bear Manager Town" themed pop-up space is open to customers; Lao Feng Xiang's (老凤祥) Jurassic pop-up store landed at the New Sixth Department Store YOUNG (新六百YOUNG), the first launch project of urban renewal in the Xujiahui business district (徐家汇商圈); Balabala (巴拉巴拉) created a 2,500-square-meter "child-friendly love community" on the Xuhui Riverside (徐汇滨江)... Commercial streets and shopping malls are renewing scene carriers, injecting new vitality into the original space.
Data shows that in the first quarter, Shanghai's total retail sales of consumer goods increased by 5.5% year-on-year. In order to consolidate the trend of improved domestic demand, Shanghai launched "one district, one theme" characteristic consumption activities during this "Double Five Shopping Festival," arranging nearly 200 million yuan in consumer coupons. Jing'an District (静安区) is expected to issue over 10 million yuan in consumer coupons, covering cosmetics, chain department stores, etc. "In previous years, consumers needed to grab consumer coupons online. This year, consumers can enjoy discounts by 'touching' their mobile phones at the store." Xia Lin (夏麟), Deputy Director of the Jing'an District Commerce Commission (静安区商务委), introduced that the consumer coupon redemption rate has significantly increased, and the effect of leveraging consumption is better than in the past.
It is understood that Shanghai's 16 districts are upgrading the ticket stub linkage model to connect cultural, commercial, tourism, sports, and exhibition consumption resources, realizing the mutual access of rights and interests of various cultural and sports venues, hotels, and shopping malls.
In addition, Shanghai launched a subsidy activity for independent categories of trade-in for consumer goods from May 1st to December 31st, adding to the national trade-in for home appliances and the new purchase subsidy for digital and smart products, covering 10 categories of products such as smart homes, digital imaging, and health aids. Individual consumers can enjoy a maximum subsidy of 2,000 yuan.

Located in the suburbs of Freetown (弗里敦), the capital of Sierra Leone, stands a white building: the Sierra Leone-China Friendship Biosafety Laboratory (塞拉利昂—中国友好生物安全实验室) (hereinafter referred to as the "Sierra Leone-China Friendship Biosafety Laboratory"). Since its official launch in 2015, it has been conducting routine infectious disease monitoring and prevention. The laboratory has undergone three phases of project construction, evolving from a single Ebola virus testing platform into an "all-rounder" covering dozens of tests. Over the past decade, batches of Chinese public health experts have been dispatched to jointly build a solid public health barrier with Sierra Leone.
From emergency assistance to long-term protection—
"The laboratory's testing capabilities are constantly expanding"
Recalling the Ebola epidemic that ravaged West Africa more than a decade ago, Augustine Kaggbo still has lingering fears. At that time, as the public health supervisor of the Tonkolili (通科利利) district of Sierra Leone, Kaggbo was mainly responsible for contact tracing. In almost daily contact with infected people, he unfortunately contracted the virus. "I was well aware of the mortality rate of the Ebola virus and didn't dare to tell my family about the situation at the time," he recalled.
"Thanks to the Chinese medical team, I was quickly diagnosed and transferred for treatment. It only took two weeks from formal diagnosis to recovery and discharge," Kaggbo said. "For me, this is an unforgettable life-saving grace."
After the outbreak of the Ebola epidemic in 2014, the Chinese government quickly responded to Sierra Leone's request. Considering the severe lack of testing and prevention capabilities in Sierra Leone, it proposed the principle of "combining short-term and long-term, combining mobile and fixed laboratories" and urgently launched the laboratory construction.
"The construction of the laboratory was urgent. Without testing capabilities, patients cannot be identified in a timely manner, let alone receive targeted treatment," recalled Dong Xiaoping (董小平), a researcher at the Institute of Viral Disease Prevention and Control of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (中国疾控中心), mentioning the word "fast" many times. "First, it was 'built fast'—the laboratory started construction in November 2014 and was completed on February 11 of the following year, taking only 87 days; second, it was 'tested fast'—by the end of the Ebola epidemic, the laboratory had cumulatively tested more than 10,000 suspected samples, ranking second in the number of tested specimens among the laboratories of various countries stationed in Sierra Leone, and the timeliness of result feedback ranked first, winning valuable time for epidemic prevention and control."
Wang Lili (王立立), associate researcher at the Global Public Health Center of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, introduced that after the end of the Ebola epidemic, the construction of the Sierra Leone-China Friendship Biosafety Laboratory entered a stage of long-term protection and operation, effectively responding to sudden epidemics such as COVID-19 and monkeypox. China has continued to provide technical assistance, sending a total of 116 experts to ensure the stable operation and continuous upgrading of the laboratory.
"The laboratory's testing capabilities have been continuously expanded, from the initial single testing platform for the Ebola virus to a 'versatile' laboratory covering 26 viruses, 10 bacteria, and malaria parasite testing," Wang Lili said. Currently, the laboratory has become the "Sierra Leone National Reference Laboratory for Viral Hemorrhagic Fever" and the "National Training Center for Pathogen Detection and Biosafety," becoming an important support for infectious disease prevention and control in Sierra Leone.
From laboratory newcomer to technical backbone—
"The local team has truly taken the lead"
"We have been working hard on one thing for more than 10 years—to truly leave the testing technology in the local area," said Kan Biao (阚飙), director of the Institute of Infectious Disease Prevention and Control of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Chinese experts have built a set of "tiered and progressive" talent training system in Sierra Leone. For grassroots personnel, the focus is on short-term practical training to enable more people to master basic testing skills; for technical backbones, a "mentorship" long-term teaching system is adopted. The Chinese team has held 37 short-term training courses, training a total of 1,061 Sierra Leonean public health personnel; 19 laboratory technicians have received long-term training, and 5 have come to China to pursue master's or doctoral degrees.
Idrissa Kamara (伊德里萨·卡马拉) officially joined the Sierra Leone-China Friendship Biosafety Laboratory in April 2015. He obtained a doctoral degree during his work and is currently a technical backbone of the laboratory responsible for on-site epidemiological investigation and epidemiological management. "The laboratory has played an important role in virus detection and rapid response," Kamara said, adding that he can not only access the most cutting-edge testing technologies here, but also participate in pathogen detection, monitoring data collection, and national emergency preparedness work.
"The Chinese training focuses on practice, and the 'one-on-one' mentorship system has been of great help to me. I can ask questions at any time when I encounter problems, and I can get corrections at any time when there are deviations in operation," Kamara said. "Before joining the laboratory, I only had basic sample testing capabilities. Later, I rotated and studied in different departments such as microbiology, molecular diagnosis, and quality management, and had a more systematic understanding of the overall operation of the laboratory." Today, the laboratory has a local technical team composed of 12 Sierra Leonean personnel, becoming the backbone of safeguarding Sierra Leone's public health security.
"The Chinese side has gradually transferred responsibilities such as daily operation and quality management to the Sierra Leonean team," said Shen Haimo (沈海默), leader of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention's expert group to Sierra Leone. Last year, a large-scale monkeypox epidemic broke out in Sierra Leone, and the laboratory undertook more than 50% of the sample testing tasks in Sierra Leone. "This time, with only 2 permanent Chinese personnel, the local team truly took the lead," Shen Haimo said. From newcomers to the laboratory to independent technical backbones, the growth of these young people is the result of China-Sierra Leone public health cooperation.
From mechanism innovation to tripartite cooperation—
"Provide stronger support for public health security in West Africa"
Relying on the Sierra Leone-China Friendship Biosafety Laboratory, the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention and the Sierra Leone Ministry of Health jointly established the "Belt and Road" Joint Laboratory in 2021, focusing on malaria, typhoid fever, and other highly prevalent infectious diseases in West Africa.
Dong Xiaoping said that the joint laboratory integrates scientific and technological foreign aid, capacity building, and joint scientific research, and is a model of innovative cooperation between China and Sierra Leone in the field of public health. "In the future, the laboratory will continue to deepen pathogen research, promote the localization of technology, and gradually expand to the prevention and control of diseases such as AIDS and viral hepatitis, providing stronger support for public health security in West Africa."
The Sierra Leone-China Friendship Biosafety Laboratory actively explores new paths for international cooperation and carries out the "China-Sierra Leone-Gates Foundation" tripartite cooperation model. Qi Xiaopeng (戚晓鹏), director of the Global Public Health Center of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, introduced that in the pilot project of malaria molecular laboratory epidemiological network capacity building, the Chinese side provides anti-malaria technical solutions, testing equipment, and expert support, the Sierra Leonean side provides implementation platforms and personnel according to local needs, and the Gates Foundation injects funds and introduces international management experience to help Sierra Leone establish independent and sustainable malaria monitoring capabilities.
"China has always been one of Sierra Leone's most reliable partners. The two sides have joined hands to deal with sudden epidemics, setting a precedent for global public health emergency management," said Foday Sahr (福代·萨尔), Executive Director of the Sierra Leone National Public Health Agency.
Charles Senesie (查尔斯·塞内西), Deputy Minister of Health of Sierra Leone, said that China-Sierra Leone public health cooperation has been deeply rooted in the people of the two countries and has become an important force in promoting social development.
Wang Jianwei (王健伟), director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that from fighting Ebola to preventing and controlling monkeypox, from emergency assistance to mechanism co-construction, China has always stood side by side with Sierra Leone. "In the future, we will continue to uphold the concept of a human health community, take science and technology as the support, and talent as the foundation, promote the deepening and solidifying of China-Sierra Leone cooperation, and contribute more Chinese strength to global public health emergency management."

From the harmonious coexistence advocated by Confucianism's concept of harmony, to the wise saying "I am because we are" from the African Ubuntu philosophy, African and Chinese cultures jointly convey a concept: peace, cooperation, and unity are the cornerstones of human progress.
The year 2026 marks the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Africa and China, and it is also the "Year of China-Africa People-to-People Exchange." In this special year, looking back at the history of Africa-China relations is of great significance for promoting the forward development of these relations.
The history of Africa-China exchanges is long and rich, laying a solid foundation for both sides to enhance mutual understanding and deepen solidarity and cooperation. Although the depth and breadth of exchanges have changed with the times, the historical continuity and profound friendship have remained consistent.
The exchanges between Africa and China can be traced back to the Han Dynasty (汉代) in China. Since the 8th century AD, with the increasing prosperity of the Maritime Silk Road, Chinese porcelain, silk, and other commodities began to arrive on the east coast of Africa, and African ivory and exotic animals were also introduced into China. In the 15th century, Zheng He (郑和) led his fleet on many voyages, reaching the east coast of Africa, covering areas of present-day Tanzania (坦桑尼亚) and Kenya (肯尼亚).
Africa-China relations have been revitalized with new connotations in the common historical process of striving for national independence and national liberation. In 1955, the Bandung Conference (万隆会议) held in Indonesia (印度尼西亚) pioneered South-South cooperation and became an important milestone in the exchanges between China and African countries. From the 1960s to the 1980s, exchanges between Africa and China in various fields such as politics, economy, trade, culture, and technology continued to expand. China has always adhered to its original aspiration and helped African friends build a number of landmark major projects such as the Tanzania-Zambia Railway (坦赞铁路).
The establishment of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (中非合作论坛) in 2000 provided a mechanism platform for Africa-China cooperation and opened a new journey of comprehensive prosperity and development in Africa-China relations. In addition to economic and trade cooperation, both sides have attached increasing importance to people-to-people and cultural exchanges. Tens of thousands of African youths have come to China for further studies with the support of Chinese government scholarships, and vocational training programs in various fields for administrative officials, teachers, and technicians from African countries have been implemented successively. Africa-China media exchange and journalist training programs have enhanced mutual understanding. These measures have effectively promoted capacity building on both sides and woven a lasting and stable cooperation network.
Interactions at the language and cultural levels continue to bring the people of Africa and China closer. Many African universities have established Confucius Institutes (孔子学院) to spread Chinese culture; Chinese universities have also opened African language majors. African arts festivals, art exhibitions, and other activities have been held in many parts of China, and African culture is gradually entering the vision of the Chinese people. A large number of Chinese entrepreneurs and builders have taken root in Africa, and the number of Africans in China is increasing day by day. Many cities in China have held large-scale cultural activities, contributing to enhancing mutual understanding and deepening traditional friendship between Africa and China. These personnel exchanges have effectively promoted cross-cultural exchange, knowledge dissemination, and cultural diversity.
In the field of medical and health care, Africa-China exchange and cooperation have also yielded fruitful results. Since the 1960s, China has continuously dispatched medical teams to Africa. Since the establishment of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation, cooperation in hospital construction assistance, medical equipment and drug assistance, and medical personnel training has continued to deepen, making positive contributions to the development of medical and health care in Africa.
People-to-people and cultural exchanges occupy an important position in the action plans of previous sessions of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation. Currently, Africa and China are constantly expanding the breadth and depth of cross-cultural dialogue. From the harmonious coexistence advocated by Confucianism's concept of harmony, to the wise saying "I am because we are" from the African Ubuntu philosophy, African and Chinese cultures jointly convey a concept: peace, cooperation, and unity are the cornerstones of human progress.
At present, Africa-China cooperation is deeply integrated into their respective modernization processes, promoting the realization of common development between the two sides. China's practical experience in promoting modernization provides useful lessons for African countries to explore a path of modernization that suits their own national conditions; African countries' abundant human resources, vast market potential, and strong development vitality have opened up broader space for Africa-China cooperation. From "hard connectivity" of infrastructure such as highways, railways, ports, and energy, to "soft connectivity" and "heart connectivity" of educational cooperation and vocational training, to cooperation in emerging fields such as e-commerce and smart cities, Africa and China have always adhered to mutual trust, mutual listening, and complementary advantages, which not only accelerates their respective modernization pace, but also provides the world with a more inclusive and inclusive new path of development.
The year 2026 is the "Year of China-Africa People-to-People Exchange" and also the Year of the Horse in the Chinese lunar calendar. The horse symbolizes steady progress and vigorous advancement, which is in line with the implication of the new journey of Africa-China people-to-people and cultural exchanges. On the road of jointly promoting modernization, Africa and China will continue to deepen people-to-people and cultural exchanges, which will surely bring the hearts of the people closer and deepen their friendship.

"I am very pleased to meet President Chissano (查波) . Welcome to China for a state visit, and welcome to the delegation and ministers you have brought. Since you took office as President, Mozambique has made new achievements in economic and social development, and I congratulate you."
April in Beijing (北京) is a time of pleasant spring weather. On the afternoon of the 21st, the Great Hall of the People (人民大会堂) was brightly lit, and President Xi Jinping (习近平) warmly welcomed Mozambican President Chissano (查波), the first African head of state to visit China this year. This is the sixth foreign guest President Xi Jinping (习近平) has met in Beijing (北京) in just over a week.
This spring, leaders from all over the world have been visiting China intensively. President Xi Jinping (习近平) has engaged in in-depth exchanges with various countries and sectors through various means, and China has ushered in a busy "diplomatic season." In a world undergoing major changes, China's increasingly prominent role is being witnessed, and "looking east" has become a mighty trend of the times.
Promoting unity and cooperation, sharing development opportunities, upholding fairness and justice... President Xi Jinping (习近平) personally plans and directs major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics, providing the most valuable stability and certainty for a turbulent world, and leading China to become an irreplaceable mainstay in the global chaos.
(I)
February 4th, the solar term Lichun (立春). Beijing (北京), two head-of-state diplomatic events attracted global attention - President Xi Jinping (习近平) held a video meeting with Russian President Putin (普京) and a phone call with U.S. President Trump (特朗普).
Interacting with the leaders of Russia and the United States on the same day is not common in Chinese diplomacy. In the face of a turbulent international situation, President Xi Jinping (习近平) creatively deepened strategic communication with major powers, demonstrating China's responsibility as a major country.
Relations between major powers affect the world situation. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the establishment of the China-Russia strategic partnership of coordination and the 25th anniversary of the signing of the China-Russia Treaty of Good-Neighborliness and Friendly Cooperation; China and the United States will respectively host the APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting and the G20 Leaders' Summit. The in-depth exchanges on the day of Lichun (立春) are aimed at steering the evolution of relations between major powers this year.
Since the beginning of the year, mainstream international media have been paying close attention to the busy and active Chinese diplomacy this year. The American magazine *Forbes* published an article on its website saying that China is laying out the red carpet almost every day to welcome foreign dignitaries seeking a more stable development environment.
From January 4th to 7th, at the invitation of President Xi Jinping (习近平), South Korean President Lee Jae-myung (李在明) paid a state visit to China, realizing a mutual visit between the heads of state of China and South Korea within two months; almost simultaneously, from January 4th to 8th, Irish Prime Minister Martin (马丁) paid an official visit to China, the first visit by an Irish Prime Minister in 14 years; in the following month, Canadian Prime Minister Carney (卡尼), Finnish Prime Minister Orpo (奥尔波), British Prime Minister Starmer (斯塔默), and Uruguayan President Orsi (奥尔西) also followed one after another...
"'The New Year lasts until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month'. Your visit to China during the Chinese New Year is like visiting relatives and friends, reflecting the close and high-level nature of Sino-German relations." On February 25th, the ninth day of the first lunar month, President Xi Jinping (习近平) said when meeting with German Chancellor Merz (默茨) at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse (钓鱼台国宾馆).
From the beginning of the year to the Spring Festival, from neighboring countries to Western countries and Latin American countries, Beijing (北京) has ushered in a wave of eye-catching "visits to China." After the Two Sessions (全国两会), Turkmenistan, Spain, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, Vietnam, Mozambique... Politicians from many countries have visited China intensively, and China's spring diplomacy is reaching a climax.
"When you first came to China in 2023, I told you that we should build Sino-Spanish relations with strategic stability, and we have done it. In the past three years, despite the turbulent international situation, Sino-Spanish relations have always developed steadily, injecting stability into Sino-European relations." On April 14th, facing Spanish Prime Minister Sanchez (桑切斯), who visited China for the fourth time in four years, President Xi Jinping (习近平) looked back on the exchanges between the two sides in recent years and pointed the way for the next development of Sino-Spanish relations.
It is good for relatives to be close, and it is good for neighbors to be friendly. Welcome ceremony, talks, signing ceremony, joint meeting with Chinese and Vietnamese youth representatives, welcome banquet, cordial farewell... On April 15th, General Secretary and President Xi Jinping (习近平) and General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam and President To Lam (苏林) had a long and in-depth exchange on overall and strategic issues of common concern, and reached many new important consensus. On April 7th, To Lam (苏林) was just elected as the President of Vietnam, and this visit was his first visit abroad after his election.
Knowing each other knows no distance, and common aspirations overcome mountains and seas. On the evening of April 21st, President Xi Jinping (习近平) and Mozambican President Chissano (查波) jointly witnessed the signing of a series of cooperation documents between the two sides. Signing, exchanging documents, shaking hands... More than 20 cooperation documents, the ceremony lasted nearly 20 minutes. One round of warm applause after another celebrated the elevation of China-Mozambique relations to a new era of China-Mozambique community with a shared future, and also demonstrated the vigorous vitality of jointly building a new era of all-weather China-Africa community with a shared future.
The international community has never been so eager to pay attention to China and eager to get closer to China as it is today. The continuous "visits to China" vividly demonstrate the aspirations of all countries for peace and stability, their support for win-win cooperation, and their emphasis on Chinese opportunities, powerfully demonstrating that "virtue is not alone, it must have neighbors."

How to understand China today?
On the morning of January 16th, in front of the huge Chinese painting "This Land So Rich in Beauty" (江山如此多娇) in the Great Hall of the People (人民大会堂), President Xi Jinping (习近平) accepted the credentials presented by 18 ambassadors to China. In his subsequent speech, President Xi Jinping (习近平) told the newly arrived envoys the story of "blind men touching an elephant" (盲人摸象).
"If you touch a leg, you say the elephant is a pillar; if you touch the belly, you say the elephant is a wall. But it is not a complete elephant. China's development is also unbalanced, and its culture is also diversified. To understand China, you need to have a comprehensive impression and a comprehensive understanding of a real China."
President Xi Jinping's (习近平) words are addressed to the envoys to China and to the wider world.
"China's door to opening up will only open wider and wider, and it will inject more certainty and new impetus into the world through high-quality development, so as to achieve common development and a beautiful community."
People are talking about the new phenomenon in Chinese diplomacy: more and more foreign leaders are visiting various parts of China during their visits to China, and they are comprehensively and deeply understanding the real and three-dimensional China in their on-site visits.
At noon on February 26th, German Chancellor Merz (默茨) flew from Beijing (北京) to Hangzhou (杭州), Zhejiang (浙江), and came to Unitree Robotics to interact with humanoid robots at zero distance. The executives of about 30 leading German companies who accompanied him raised their mobile phones and recorded this futuristic moment.
Irish Prime Minister Martin (马丁) chose Shanghai (上海) as one of the stops on his visit to China because "Shanghai (上海) is an extraordinary city with a magnetic attraction." What impressed him was that an Irish company engaged in food trade and research, after settling in Shanghai (上海), has expanded from the initial few employees to more than 1,400 employees after years of development, showing the huge potential of Sino-Irish economic and trade cooperation.
This year is the first year of China's "15th Five-Year Plan." In the next 5 years and longer, China will continue to promote high-quality development and expand high-level opening up to the outside world, provide countries with a longer "opportunity list," open its arms to the world, and welcome more and more countries' companies to "swim" in the "sea" of the Chinese market.
President Xi Jinping's (习近平) words are confident and powerful: "We have the determination to firmly promote Chinese-style modernization, and we also have the mind to share development opportunities with the world through high-level opening up to the outside world, and we will inject confidence and impetus into global economic growth with our own development."
A country committed to national rejuvenation has explored a Chinese-style modernization path that is very different from the West. What kind of promising future is contained in the vast Chinese opportunities?
Mozambican President Chissano (查波), after arriving in China, did not go directly to Beijing (北京), but spent 5 days visiting Hunan (湖南) and Qinghai (青海). On April 19th, in Ban Yan Village (班彦村) in Huzhu Tu Autonomous County (互助土族自治县), Qinghai (青海), which President Xi Jinping (习近平) had visited, Chissano (查波) learned about China's poverty alleviation process in remote rural areas. He sincerely exclaimed: "**耳听为虚，眼见为实** (ěr tīng wéi xū, yǎn jiàn wéi shí - "hearing is false, seeing is believing," seeing is believing, firsthand experience is more reliable than hearsay). Here, I have personally seen China's poverty reduction experience and the victory of poverty alleviation."
To Lam (苏林), who has visited China many times, chose to take the high-speed rail to Xiong'an New Area (雄安新区) and Guangxi (广西) for visits this time. "My trip to China this time is very special. I took the high-speed rail from north to south... I can feel the balanced development between provinces, which shows that China's regional coordinated development is doing very well."
China, which knows that "the world will be better if China is good; and the world will be even better if China is good," has always been committed to breaking down barriers with openness and inclusiveness, transcending zero-sum games with mutual benefit and win-win results, and creating vigorous opportunities for the world with its own high-quality development.
At the end of his visit to China, British Prime Minister Starmer (斯塔默) quoted the "blind men touching an elephant" (盲人摸象) story told by President Xi Jinping (习近平), saying that he should recognize and respect the vastness and complexity of modern China and see all the achievements China has made.
Understand China in walking, and deepen cooperation in exchanges. China-Uruguay Joint Statement, China-Vietnam Joint Statement, China-Mozambique Joint Statement... During the "visits to China," a series of cooperation documents have been widely reported by the media and frequently swiped the screen, also showing the world: to go with China is to go with stability and certainty, is to go with opportunity and development.
Merz (默茨) said that the German business community attaches great importance to the Chinese market and hopes to further deepen cooperation with China to achieve mutual benefit, win-win results and common development; Sanchez (桑切斯) praised that Chinese companies' investment and cooperation in Spain has effectively promoted Spain's economic development and hopes to strengthen cooperation in trade, investment, new energy and other fields; To Lam (苏林) said that he believes that China will smoothly implement the "15th Five-Year Plan" and is willing to work with China to improve the level of cooperation in economy and trade, investment, railway and other infrastructure and tourism...
"China will fully implement zero-tariff measures on 53 African countries that have diplomatic relations with China from May 1 this year" "Strengthen cooperation in trade, new energy, smart economy and other fields, and encourage cultural, educational, scientific research and sports exchanges" "Seek mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation paths and jointly maintain the stability and smooth flow of industrial and supply chains"...
In the meetings, President Xi Jinping's (习近平) confident declarations and sincere invitations have inspired more and more friends from all countries to become "fellow travelers on the road to modernization."
(III)
Since the end of February, the Iranian war has broken out and dragged on, becoming one of the most pressing challenges facing the international community. As a responsible major country, China demonstrates its global vision and its strength to take responsibility.
"At present, the changes in the world, the changes of the times, and the changes in history are unfolding in an unprecedented way, and human society is facing a historical choice of peace or war, unity or confrontation, development or decline."
On April 14th, President Xi Jinping (习近平) met with Sheikh Khalid (哈立德), Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi (阿布扎比), United Arab Emirates (阿联酋), who was visiting China. At this meeting, President Xi Jinping (习近平) put forward four important proposals on maintaining and promoting peace and stability in the Middle East, providing a Chinese solution for getting out of conflict and achieving peace.
"Adhere to the principle of peaceful coexistence" "Adhere to the principle of national sovereignty" "Adhere to the principle of international rule of law" "Adhere to the overall planning of development and security"... The four proposals fully reflect China's consistent position and active efforts to promote peace and stop war and advocate dialogue to resolve differences, injecting new impetus into promoting the easing of the situation.
There is only one Earth in the universe, and human beings live in the same homeland. For the sake of the world, we can achieve harmony and achieve each other, and we can also stand the test of history.
"The Middle East war has spillover effects on African countries. China is willing to work with Africa to jointly cope with it, jointly promote peace and jointly seek development." On April 21st, when talking with Mozambican President Chissano (查波), President Xi Jinping (习近平) once again talked about the Middle East situation, conveying the firm willingness to adhere to principles to promote peace, maintain determination to seek development, and cooperate for win-win results with African friends.
Responsibility is seen in the storm, and a major country should be like this.
In his New Year's message in 2026, President Xi Jinping (习近平) said that the world today is intertwined with changes and chaos, and some regions are still shrouded in war. China always stands on the right side of history and is willing to work with all countries to promote world peace and development and promote the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.
The resounding words travel through time and space, releasing lasting power. The charm of the great Eastern country lies fundamentally in the fact that we always stand on the right side of history, on the side of human progress, and on the side of multilateralism.
"Division and confrontation, and zero-sum games are doomed to have no way out. Letting the world return to the law of the jungle is unpopular. Working together in the same boat and uniting and cooperating is the only correct choice." President Xi Jinping's (习近平) profound insights have aroused strong resonance.
Sending a congratulatory message to the 10th Summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States, emphasizing that China will always be a good friend and good partner of Latin American and Caribbean countries; talking with Brazilian President Lula (卢拉) on the phone, pointing out that China and Brazil should firmly stand on the right side of history and better safeguard the common interests of the two countries and the Global South... President Xi Jinping (习近平), with a broad global vision and a heavy historical responsibility, constantly unites the progressive forces of the world and continues to gather the mighty power of sharing weal and woe and sharing a common destiny.
"China's cultural tradition is 'harmony is the most valuable' (以和为贵), and what it pursues is 'harmony without uniformity' (和而不同)" - President Xi Jinping (习近平) profoundly pointed out the cultural heritage of China's adherence to the path of peaceful development, guiding the international community to deeply understand the long-standing Chinese civilization.
In the Forbidden City (故宫) with a history of more than 600 years, the word "harmony" (和) on the plaques of the three main halls contains the Chinese people's cherishment and belief in peace, harmony and amity since ancient times. Finnish Prime Minister Orpo (奥尔波) specially visited the Forbidden City (故宫) in his busy visit schedule, and exclaimed that "this ancient site carrying a heavy history stands quietly in the center of a modern metropolis with skyscrapers, and such a strong contrast is shocking."
In the continuous spring rain, British Prime Minister Starmer (斯塔默) came to Yu Garden (豫园), a classical Jiangnan garden regarded as the "root" of Shanghai's (上海) urban culture. Appreciating the Yu Garden (豫园) Lantern Festival, buying butterfly pastries, and tasting Chinese tea, Starmer (斯塔默) interacted with the Chinese people along the way. He said that in the current turbulent and fragile international situation, it is crucial for the UK to establish a long-term, stable and comprehensive strategic partnership with China based on mutual respect and mutual trust.
During his visit to China, Uruguayan President Orsi (奥尔西) visited Beijing Foreign Studies University (北京外国语大学) to exchange ideas with teachers and students and watered the spruce tree symbolizing the friendship between China and Uruguay. As a former history teacher, he was deeply moved: isolationism and unilateralism are not the way to deal with challenges. Chinese civilization has been continuous and is committed to creating a future together. Uruguay is a partner with China with common values.
"Maintaining the international system with the United Nations as the core and the international order based on international law, promoting the realization of an equal and orderly world multipolarization and an inclusive economic globalization, and promoting the building of a community with a shared future for mankind." This is a profound reflection based on history, and it is also a Chinese solution for promoting global governance reform and building a new type of international relations for the future.
When the wheels of history are moving in twists and turns, the mission and responsibility and the value of the times of major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics are becoming more and more prominent. Under the guidance of Xi Jinping's (习近平) diplomatic thought and the leadership of President Xi Jinping's (习近平) head-of-state diplomacy, a China that unswervingly follows the path of peaceful development is continuously conveying the warmth, confidence and strength of spring to the world.

Return to TopThis newspaper's Nanjing (南京) May 4th dispatch (Reporter Yin Xiaoyu (尹晓宇)) On May 4th, French friend, Mr. Serge Blanc (白士杰), and his team transferred a batch of Japanese invasion of China materials (scanned copies) to the Memorial Hall of the Victims in the Nanjing Massacre by Japanese Invaders.
The transferred materials this time are scans of some Japanese military invasion of China archives from the Nantes Diplomatic Archives Center of the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, involving 42 diplomatic documents, a total of 1993 pages, with a time range from 1920 to 1943. The materials are mainly in French, but also include various languages such as English, Chinese, and Japanese. The content involves the Nanjing Massacre (南京大屠杀), the connection between Japanese aggression and Western interests in China, comprehensive files of the War of Resistance Against Japan (抗日战争) (after 1937), military archives, Japanese aggression and expansion in Northeast China and surrounding areas, and the archives of the French Consulate in Taipei (台北) and diplomatic offices during the war. These materials expose the Japanese invasion crimes such as the Nanjing Massacre from multiple perspectives.
Zhou Feng (周峰), curator of the Memorial Hall of the Victims in the Nanjing Massacre by Japanese Invaders, introduced that this batch of materials is of positive significance for further deepening related historical research and will be collected in the Nanjing Massacre Literature Center of the memorial hall. These materials once again prove that Japanese invasion atrocities such as the Nanjing Massacre were known to the international community such as France as early as the War of Resistance Against Japan. The ironclad evidence is like a mountain and cannot be denied. 铁证如山 (tiě zhèng rú shān - "ironclad evidence like a mountain," irrefutable evidence).

The 2026 Milan Design Week was recently held in Milan, Italy. Designers and organizations from China adorned various corners of the fashion capital with their works and exhibitions, becoming a highlight of this global event for the interior decoration and design industry.
The Sarpi design district, located in Milan's Chinatown, is one of the main venues of Milan Design Week. Installations of art incorporating Chinese elements and a hundred-meter-long painted scroll of the "Bridge of Civilization" showcase the long history of Sino-Italian cultural exchange. Inside the Milan Longjia Chinese School (米兰龙甲中文学校), the Chinese Character Creative Design Exhibition uses graphic visual art, calligraphy works, video images, and other forms to tell the historical evolution of Chinese characters and the cultural connotations behind them.
Nearly a hundred students from the Milan Fermi Private Middle School (米兰费米私立中学) came to the exhibition site, showing a strong interest in the close connection between oracle bone inscriptions and images, and asking questions from time to time. The school's principal, Giuseppe D'Aligo (朱塞佩·达利戈), said that Chinese has become a feature of the school's education. Currently, the school offers Chinese courses to all first and second year high school students, and plans to offer Tai Chi classes and summer camp projects to China in the future to help students further understand China and Chinese culture.
In the Ambrosiana Library (昂布罗修图书馆) in the center of Milan, the "Chinese Charm · Italian Style" Digital Intangible Cultural Heritage Design Dialogue and Empowerment of Rural Revitalization Typical Case Exhibition focuses on representative cases and systematic thinking in areas such as design empowering rural revitalization. Ji Tie (季铁), Dean of the School of Design Art of Hunan University (湖南大学), introduced that the "Zhiyan Songfang" artificial intelligence creation platform project designed by the college and other units can serve the industrial and cultural needs under different conditions, and has been successfully selected as a demonstration case by the UNESCO Creative Center.
The Sino-Italian joint exhibition hall is themed "Cultural Innovation and Chinese Expression." The huge woven tapestry hanging at the entrance of the exhibition hall is beautifully shaped, and the various costumes displayed next to it are full of three-dimensionality. Chinese designer Shen William (沈威廉) told reporters that traditional Chinese bamboo weaving, paper-cutting, and Italian mosaics and other traditional crafts have provided him with design inspiration. "The artistic heritage left by our ancestors is not an outdated symbol, but a design language flowing in our blood. We must activate the vitality of those ancient crafts and materials, so that the aesthetic depth spanning thousands of years can be reshaped into an accessible modern lifestyle."
Teapots shaped like jade cong, tea tables and screens made of natural bamboo, ceramic brushes decorated with Liangzhu (良渚) carvings... At the "Chinese Aesthetics Origin - Liangzhu Culture and Contemporary Creation Exhibition" at the Milan International Exhibition Center, curator Zhang Junjie (章俊杰), professor of the China Academy of Art (中国美术学院), told reporters that the more than 20 works by Chinese and foreign artists exhibited this time combine cutting-edge design styles with Liangzhu culture more than 5,000 years ago, and look forward to interpreting Liangzhu aesthetics with contemporary techniques and finding aesthetic wisdom with growth potential from traditional culture.
Korean artist Min Bok-ki (闵复基), professor at Seoul National University (首尔大学), who participated in the exhibition, took jade ritual objects as civilization genes and used contemporary metal craftsmanship to reconstruct the prototype spirit of Liangzhu jade bi and jade cong. He told reporters that exploring the historical and aesthetic value of Liangzhu culture is to re-recognize this precious heritage. "As an important source of human civilization, the original aesthetics and creative wisdom contained in Liangzhu culture still have enlightening significance today, which also provides us with an indispensable life force for exploring future design."

During the "May Day" holiday, Ge Yunkun (戈云坤) arrived at the village clinic early, as usual.
At the entrance of the clinic, several villagers had already arrived. "Good morning, uncles and aunties!" Ge Yunkun (戈云坤) greeted the villagers, who affectionately called him "Doctor Ge (戈医生)."
Ge Yunkun (戈云坤), 26, is a college graduate village doctor at the Zhaolin Village (赵林村) clinic in Zhuyuan Town (竹园镇), Mile City (弥勒市), Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture (红河哈尼族彝族自治州), Yunnan Province (云南省). Three years ago, after graduating from university, he came here through the Yunnan Province College Student Village Doctor Special Program Examination.
The clinic opens at 8:00 a.m., and he always arrives early.
"There are many elderly people in the village, and they get up early. Arriving early allows them to wait less and allows me to see more patients," Ge Yunkun (戈云坤) explained. Zhaolin Village (赵林村) has a permanent population of more than 5,000 people, mainly middle-aged and elderly people, and common diseases are joint pain and frozen shoulder.
"Doctor Ge (戈医生), my old knee problem has flared up, and it's been very painful these past few days," said villager Can Lin (灿林), limping into the clinic. Ge Yunkun (戈云坤) performed acupuncture and physiotherapy on him. After the treatment, Can Lin's (灿林) pain was greatly reduced.
"Doctor Ge (戈医生) is young, but he is skilled and responsible!" Can Lin (灿林) praised.
Villagers came and went, and by 5 p.m., the clinic had received more than 60 patients.
In addition to seeing patients, Ge Yunkun (戈云坤) spends at least two days a week visiting homes. He has a basic understanding of the more than 400 patients with hypertension and diabetes in the village, who is running out of medicine, and whose blood pressure has been unstable recently.
General Secretary Xi Jinping's (习近平) letter to the representatives of the winners of the China Youth May Fourth Medal and the New Era Youth Pioneer Award greatly inspired Ge Yunkun (戈云坤). "General Secretary (总书记) pointed out in his reply, 'Based on our respective positions, we must continue to create new achievements and contribute our youth to the new journey.' As a college student village doctor, I must keep in mind his instructions, take root in the front line, and write a youth of no regrets with practical work and dedication."
Thanks to the College Student Village Doctor Special Program, rural Yunnan (云南) has attracted more and more graduates from medical colleges and universities, enriching the ranks of village doctors. The province has cumulatively recruited more than 500 college student village doctors and included them in the institutional establishment guarantee.
As the sun sets in the west, Ge Yunkun (戈云坤), who has been busy all day, packs up his outpatient bag and rides his electric bike to the home of 74-year-old Pan Shuzhen (潘树珍). Grandma Pan (潘大娘) suffers from high blood pressure and has had knee pain for the past two years. The two-kilometer journey to the clinic requires her to rest several times.
"Little Doctor Ge (小戈医生), thank you for coming to see me every month, just like my family," Grandma's (大娘) words warmed Ge Yunkun's (戈云坤) heart.
"Being treated as family by the villagers is better than anything," said Ge Yunkun (戈云坤).

Actively develop elderly human resources.
——Excerpt from the "15th Five-Year Plan" Outline
Wearing orange uniforms printed with the words "Le'an Evening Glow" (乐安晚晴), 61-year-old Cheng Xueqing (程学青) and his partner Jia Tongmei (贾同枚) arrived at the home of 84-year-old Cheng Xiufang (程秀芳), a villager in Qiaozi Village (桥子村), Chenhu Town (陈户镇), Boxing County (博兴县), Binzhou City (滨州市), Shandong Province (山东省). Today, their task is to check the elderly woman's physical condition, chat with her, and clean the room.
In Chenhu Town (陈户镇), elderly people over 60 years old account for 26.7% of the town's population, of which more than 1,200 are over 80 years old. In July 2024, in response to the dilemma of rural elderly people living at home who face "high costs of institutional care and difficulty in meeting personalized needs," Chenhu Town (陈户镇) launched the "Le'an Evening Glow" (乐安晚晴) rural home-based elderly service project. It adopts the "younger elderly helping older elderly" model, recruiting villagers aged 55 to 65 who are healthy in the village, and after training, providing home-based elderly care services for the elderly over 80 years old.
"The project's service content is abbreviated as '226N': two elderly care workers in a group, providing door-to-door service twice a month, including nail trimming, room cleaning, haircuts, vital signs monitoring, bathing assistance, and errand services, six defined home-based elderly care services, as well as N derivative services. 'Younger elderly' can earn 25 yuan for one hour of service," said Liu Xiaomei (刘小美), director of the Chenhu Town (陈户镇) Public Service Center.
Cheng Xueqing (程学青) previously worked odd jobs in surrounding factories and had ample time. His parents have passed away, and he currently has no support burden. When he learned that the village was recruiting caregivers, he signed up, both to add to his income and to "do more things, this is also our intention." "After working as an elderly service for more than a year, I found that what many elderly people need most is someone to talk to and chat with." As the youngest caregiver in the service team, Cheng Xueqing (程学青) lamented that many rural elderly people's children are not around, and spiritual companionship and comfort are particularly important.
Last late autumn, Cheng Xueqing (程学青) and Jia Tongmei (贾同枚) saw Cheng Xiufang (程秀芳) tidying up the stove when they visited. Without saying much, the two directly lifted the stove into the house, installed the chimney, and added coal. The old woman grabbed the sleeves of the two and insisted on keeping them for dinner.
The caregivers often silently complete tasks such as installing stoves, repairing appliances, and buying things outside of the "one hour" service. "The orange-clad caregivers have become a symbol of respect and love for the elderly in the village," said Wang Zixuan (王子宣), secretary of the Party branch and director of the village committee of Qiaozi Village (桥子村). "Since the project was launched, villagers have been more supportive of the village's work, and the atmosphere has become more harmonious."
However, with the continuous deepening of elderly care services, practical difficulties such as funding guarantees and service connections have gradually emerged. To this end, the town has made many explorations.
"In terms of funding guarantees, we adopt a diversified fundraising mechanism integrating public donations, government support, and collective matching; in terms of incentive mechanisms, we explore a rural mutual aid elderly care points model, quantifying service content into recordable, storable, and exchangeable points, and 'younger elderly' can use the points to exchange for various services," Liu Xiaomei (刘小美) introduced. "In this way, a closed loop of 'service-accumulation-feedback' is formed. The essence is to exchange time and labor for rights and interests, so that mutual assistance behavior shifts from pure emotional drive to sustainable participation."
It is understood that the project currently covers 21 villages. As of the end of 2025, 50 "younger elderly" caregivers have provided more than 6,000 services, with a service time of more than 5,000 hours, benefiting 621 elderly people.
Under the setting sun, Cheng Xueqing (程学青), carrying a somewhat worn orange backpack, prepared to rush to the next household. He smiled and said, "The backpack is not heavy, it is filled with our intentions, and it is also the energy that people of our age can still do something for the village."

Actively developing elderly human resources and expanding diversified job opportunities suitable for the elderly are important measures to actively address the aging of the population. So, how can the elderly be encouraged to contribute their remaining energy? The exploration of Chenhu Town (陈户镇) provides a path for reference—starting from the people and feelings around them to stimulate the enthusiasm of the elderly to participate in social activities.
Strengthening service forces starts with "people around them." The "Le'an Wanqing (乐安晚晴)" service team in Chenhu Town (陈户镇) recruits eligible "people around them" from the village. These "younger elderly" are rooted in the countryside all year round, are enthusiastic about their neighbors, and are familiar with local conditions. After training, they can become an important force in weaving a dense elderly care service network.
Improving the long-term mechanism gathers strength from "feelings around them." The mutual-aid elderly care points model allows the "younger elderly" who provide services to also feel the warmth around them. Service has value and returns, which can effectively stimulate initiative and enhance a sense of honor.
Don't say that it's late in life's twilight years, for the sunset still fills the sky with rosy light. Starting from the people around them means starting from the actual needs of the elderly, which not only allows the silver-haired force to fully exert itself, but also allows elderly people in need to enjoy care. For the whole society, it is necessary to promote a positive view of aging and the concept of healthy aging to take root in people's hearts. Gathering silver-haired strength with warmth around us and building a solid foundation for people's livelihood in subtle ways, we hope that every elder can enjoy a happy old age. 莫道桑榆晚，为霞尚满天 (mò dào sāng yú wǎn, wèi xiá shàng mǎn tiān - "Don't say it's late in life's twilight years, for the sunset still fills the sky with rosy light," Even in old age, one can still make contributions).

Yushu Technology settles in Chongqing (重庆), choosing Dadukou District (大渡口区). Some ask: Why this former old industrial area?
On April 28th, the Yushu Technology Western Innovation Operation Center officially began operations in Dadukou District (大渡口区). Yushu Technology will work with Dadukou District (大渡口区) to jointly build projects such as a humanoid robot "Embodied Intelligence Robot Laboratory" to jointly promote the high-quality development of Chongqing's (重庆) intelligent robot industry. Previously, Yushu Technology's wholly-owned subsidiary, Chongqing Yuyi Technology Co., Ltd. (重庆宇弈科技有限公司), also settled in Dadukou District (大渡口区).
This two-way commitment is both a recognition of local development by the enterprise and a firm step in the transformation and upgrading of Dadukou District (大渡口区). It prospered because of steel and was once an important national iron and steel industrial base. Later, Chongqing Iron and Steel (重庆钢铁) was relocated for environmental protection, the sound of machines suddenly fell silent, and Dadukou District (大渡口区) once fell into the predicament of industrial "hollowing out."
How can the old industrial base 滚石上山、爬坡过坎 (gǔn shí shàng shān, pá pō guò kǎn - "rolling stones uphill, climbing slopes and crossing ridges," to overcome difficulties and challenges)? Dadukou District (大渡口区) adheres to grasping both aspects, on the one hand, deeply exploring the existing industrial heritage and promoting the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries; on the other hand, aiming at cutting-edge new tracks and cultivating new quality productive forces.
Upgrading traditional industries, old trees sprout new branches—
In Chongqing International Composites Co., Ltd. (重庆国际复合材料股份有限公司), robotic arms cooperate precisely, and bundles of pure white high-modulus glass fibers are automatically wound into rolls, waiting to be shipped overseas.
"Don't underestimate this bundle of silk. It looks soft, but it hides great potential," said Liu Weiting (刘伟廷), Deputy General Manager of the company. "A bundle of primary silk is polymerized from 4,000 monofilaments with a diameter of only about 11 microns, with high technical content and product added value."
A thin thread connects a broad industrial landscape. From energy-saving doors and windows to 100-meter-level wind power blades, from high-speed rail sleepers to ultra-high voltage equipment serving the "Xinjiang Electricity to Chongqing (疆电入渝)" project... Through continuous technological innovation, International Composites Co., Ltd. (国际复材公司) has derived hundreds of downstream products, with an annual production capacity of over 1.2 million tons, ranking among the top in the industry.
The upgrading of material enterprises is a microcosm of Dadukou District's (大渡口区) efforts to promote the transformation of traditional industries. The district has continued to increase investment in technological transformation. In the past three years, it has implemented more than 80 technological transformation projects, completed more than 3 billion yuan in technological transformation investment, and steadily increased the numerical control rate of key processes in industrial enterprises above designated size, accelerating the development towards intelligent, green, and integrated development. Support key enterprises such as Qiutian Gear (秋田齿轮) to upgrade and iterate, and promote the extension, supplementation, and strengthening of the industrial chain of auto and motorcycle parts, environmental protection equipment, and new materials.
Cultivating emerging industries, new seedlings grow into forests—
While deeply cultivating existing stock, Dadukou District (大渡口区) is anchoring emerging tracks, precisely positioning itself, and promoting the clustering of emerging industries.
As a leading enterprise that Dadukou District (大渡口区) focuses on introducing and cultivating, Zhongyuan Huiji Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (中元汇吉生物技术股份有限公司) gives full play to its leading role, bringing together 218 upstream and downstream enterprises to form a complete ecosystem from research and development, production to services, helping the region build an innovative development pattern for the smart medical equipment industry.
Emerging industries are blooming in multiple locations and advancing in clusters. In the field of new-generation electronic information manufacturing, leading enterprises such as Hikvision (海康威视) and Ezviz Smart Home (萤石智能家居) have successively settled in, with an output value of over 10 billion yuan for three consecutive years; in the high-end motorcycle industry track, electric off-road motorcycles developed and manufactured by Chongqing Qiulong Technology Co., Ltd. (重庆虬龙科技有限公司) are sold to more than 50 countries and regions overseas, becoming a global benchmark in the segmented field; emerging industries such as robots and energy-saving and environmental protection equipment continue to emerge.
Optimizing the business environment, living water nourishes vitality—
"From the initial site selection and landing of the project to administrative approval, from market docking in the early stage of production to factor guarantees in the production process, everything went smoothly, achieving 'signing the contract in the same year, putting it into production in the same year, and seeing results in the same year'," said Han Fei (韩飞), General Manager of Siwujiang (Chongqing) Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. (思无疆（重庆）农业发展有限公司). This year, the company will increase its capital and expand production, expanding a 10,000-square-meter intelligent factory.
Behind the company's recognition is Dadukou District's (大渡口区) unremitting efforts to continuously optimize the business environment: establishing a "land + housekeeper" package supply model, shortening the project landing cycle by more than 50%, and improving approval efficiency by 50%; optimizing service brands, going deep into the front line to collect corporate demands, and accurately formulating support measures with "one enterprise, one policy" to transform the "temperature" of the business environment into the "speed" of industrial development; innovating and constructing a investment promotion work system to form a "one game of chess" investment promotion synergy from top to bottom, ensuring that projects can be signed, landed steadily, built quickly, and developed well...
With services in place for enterprises, the overall development of the district has improved. The "gray steel city" where steel flowers once splashed has now become a modern industrial new city with intelligent manufacturing surging. In 2025, Dadukou District (大渡口区) achieved a regional GDP of 54.33 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.8%.
"During the '15th Five-Year Plan' period, Dadukou District (大渡口区) will adhere to invigorating the district through industry and strengthening the district through industry, and make every effort to grasp industrial capacity improvement, investment promotion to increase volume, investment promotion to promote release, and environmental optimization of ecology, so as to demonstrate new achievements in striving to write a new chapter of Chongqing (重庆) in Chinese-style modernization," said Zhang Guo (张果), Secretary of the Dadukou District (大渡口区) Party Committee.
The Yangtze River (长江) surges, the ancient ferry is reborn, and the story of Dadukou (大渡口) is opening a new chapter.
Return to TopDuring the "May Day" holiday, the cultural and tourism market continued to heat up. People enjoyed their holiday time by getting close to nature, experiencing culture, and discovering new ideas. The potential of cultural and tourism consumption continued to be released, demonstrating the vigorous power of China's cultural and tourism industry's high-quality development.
Return to TopThis newspaper's Beijing (北京) dispatch on May 4th (Reporter Jin Xin (金歆)) - This reporter learned from the Central Cyberspace Administration of China (中央网信办) that recently, some "self-media" accounts, when publishing information involving current affairs and other fields, did not standardize the labeling of information sources, misled public perception, and damaged the online ecology. The main situations include not labeling the source of information on domestic and foreign current affairs, public policies, and social events; not labeling AI (artificial intelligence) generation identification; and not labeling fictional deduction labels. Cyberspace departments urged websites and platforms to conduct in-depth self-examination and self-correction, and disposed of more than 98,000 violating accounts in accordance with laws and regulations.
On the 3rd, the cyberspace department reported typical cases, including "self-media" accounts such as Kuaishou's "Farmer Dajie (农民大姐)," "Qinghua Yuma (清华鱼妈)," and Bilibili's "Business Strategy," which, when publishing information related to public policies in the fields of agriculture, rural areas, education, and elderly care, did not label the source of information. The public could not obtain accurate and complete authoritative information and might make incorrect interpretations of policies based on fragmented content. "Self-media" accounts such as Weibo's "Golden Retriever Healing Series" and Bilibili's "Aiyo Aiyo Xiaoranzi (哎呦哎呦小然子)" used artificial intelligence technology to create and publish videos of golden retrievers holding children and gorillas protecting their cubs confronting crocodiles, without adding AI generation identification, which easily misled netizens who do not understand AI and made it difficult to distinguish between virtual and real boundaries.

Labor is the most glorious, labor is the most noble, labor is the most great, and labor is the most beautiful.
On the occasion of the "May Day" International Labor Day, General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) extended festive congratulations and sincere greetings to the vast number of working people across the country, pointing out: "The vast number of working people are closely united around the Party, striving for progress, and daring to innovate and create." "It is hoped that the vast number of working people will vigorously promote the spirit of model workers, the spirit of labor, and the spirit of craftsmanship."
This year marks the 105th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China and the first year of the "15th Five-Year Plan." The vast number of workers, based on their positions and diligently cultivating, interpret their original aspirations with perseverance, write their responsibilities with struggle, and forge their ingenuity with dedication, contributing wisdom and strength to vigorously promoting Chinese-style modernization.
Perseverance is a simple promise.
Adhering to their posts and diligently practicing, the figures of model workers shine brightly. The vast number of model workers love their jobs and dedicate themselves, take root in the front line, and work tirelessly for a long time, using day-to-day perseverance to interpret their original aspirations and responsibilities.
At 5:30 in the morning, the morning mist in the Huangshan (黄山) Scenic Area in Anhui (安徽) Province had not yet dissipated, and the sky was slightly bright. Hu Xiaochun (胡晓春), a national model worker and the 19th "Pine Guardian," had already packed his tools and headed towards the well-known Guest-Greeting Pine in the scenic area. For many years in a row, he has been sticking to his post during the "May Day" holiday.
"There are many tourists during the holidays, and guarding it requires more attention at all times." While walking slowly, Hu Xiaochun took out a magnifying glass, approached the newly emerging pine needles, and carefully observed their color and growth. After the inspection, he carefully wrote down the current record: wind force, temperature, humidity, growth, pest and disease conditions...
Since taking over the baton of guarding the pine in 2011, Hu Xiaochun has been stationed in the mountains for more than 300 days a year. In the past ten years, he has filled hundreds of Guest-Greeting Pine diaries, totaling more than 1.6 million words. This precious and detailed protection manual provides an important basis for the scientific protection of the ancient pine tree.
Closing the notebook, Hu Xiaochun quickly walked to the square to guide the flow of people and promote the concept of ecological protection. "Protecting this ancient pine tree is to protect the beauty of the ecology and contribute to the construction of a beautiful China."
Manufacturing is the foundation of a country and the basis for strengthening the country, and it is also a stage for the vast number of model workers to show their talents.
During the "May Day" holiday, the intelligent workshop of Goertek (歌尔) Co., Ltd. in Weifang (潍坊), Shandong (山东) Province, was roaring with machines and in good order. Wang Xinfu (王新福), a national model worker and a Goertek assembly and adjustment technician, leaned over and stood in front of the new equipment, holding debugging tools and staring at the data on the instrument panel.
"This batch of new equipment is tailor-made for the virtual reality product line. The new process must be implemented as soon as possible, and we must seize the progress and ensure quality during the holidays," Wang Xinfu said.
Dare to tackle tough problems and face difficulties. More than 20 years ago, Wang Xinfu was still a young apprentice who loved to study. When others got off work, he was still repeatedly disassembling and assembling parts in front of the machine tool. It was this spirit of drilling that allowed him to grow from an ordinary fitter to a leading craftsman in the industry.
Taking advantage of the debugging gap, Wang Xinfu called the young technicians to his side and taught them hand-in-hand. The model worker and craftsman innovation studio he led has overcome 220 topics and trained 180 highly skilled talents, injecting a continuous stream of talent into industrial upgrading.
Struggle is a solid step.
Socialism is achieved through hard work, and happiness is achieved through struggle. On the land of China, one simple and enterprising figure after another, one deeply moving story after another, vividly sings the song of workers in the new era.
In the city streets, the busy footsteps never stop. On May 1, Fan Jiazhi (范家志), a food delivery rider in Zhongxian (忠县), Chongqing (重庆), was neatly dressed and carrying a food box, shuttling between buildings and alleys. This is his seventh year in the food delivery industry.
As a member of the new employment group, he gets up early and works late all year round, regardless of wind or rain. The more concentrated the flow of people and the increase in demand during the holidays, the more hurried his pace, "Running dozens of kilometers every day, just to deliver every hot meal well."
As of February 2026, Chongqing has built 36,000 friendly scenes for new employment groups. "When you are tired or thirsty, the union rider station on the street can take a break and shelter from the rain. The company also bought us unified accident insurance. With these warm-hearted support, the delivery road is more stable and more motivated," Fan Jiazhi said.
From cities to villages, different positions, the same diligence.
In Luojia Township (罗家乡), Longyou County (龙游县), Quzhou City (衢州市), Zhejiang (浙江) Province, the yellow tea plantation is filled with the fragrance of tea. Tea farmers are busy picking and stir-frying tea, and the tea stir-frying machines are running non-stop, a busy scene.
Yu Shengbin (余圣彬), a customer manager of the State Grid Quzhou Power Supply Company (国网衢州供电公司), was also busy during the "May Day" holiday. He drilled into tea gardens and entered tea factories to check lines, leakage protectors, and switch knives, not letting go of any safety hazards.
"Tea frying cannot be separated from a continuous and stable power supply. We must use reliable power to help tea farmers expand their sales channels and increase their income," Yu Shengbin said.
Dedication is a persistent pursuit.
Great craftsmen are the cornerstone and pillar of the Chinese nation's mansion. They create high-quality products with ingenuity and build monuments with hard work, pursuing excellence and achieving extraordinary achievements in front-line positions.
During the "May Day" holiday, in the assembly workshop of CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles Co., Ltd. (中车长春轨道客车股份有限公司), young craftsman Yao Zhihui (姚智慧) held a cable, skillfully peeled off the outer skin, separated each slender wire, matched the wiring terminals, and precisely crimped them - a set of connectors serving the electrical circuits of the Fuxing (复兴) high-speed train was assembled, with smooth, precise, and standardized movements.
"The wiring harness is to the train as the nerves are to the human body. Every wire is related to safety, and there must be no slightest error." As a practitioner of the key process of high-speed rail assembly, Yao Zhihui has developed the hard skill of "one-stop shop" for craftsmanship.
From Harmony to Fuxing, to the world's fastest high-speed rail CR450 trainset, Yao Zhihui has participated in the assembly of 15 Chinese high-speed rail models in the 16 years since he started his career, witnessing the historic leap of Chinese high-speed rail from catching up to running in parallel to leading.
"It's a great pleasure to work with China's high-speed rail!" Yao Zhihui said firmly.
From high-speed rail assembly workshops to cultural relic restoration workshops, the spirit of craftsmanship is passed down from generation to generation.
In Guanghan City (广汉市), Sichuan (四川) Province, in the cultural relic restoration room of the Sanxingdui Museum (三星堆博物馆), Guo Hanzhong (郭汉中), a senior technical worker in cultural relic restoration and deputy director of the cultural relic preservation department, leaned over the table and passed on restoration experience to young descendants: "When splicing bronze fragments, the force should be even, the eyes should be accurate, and there is no room for the slightest carelessness."
From apprentice to the nation's top cultural relic restoration master, Guo Hanzhong has used a pair of skillful hands to revitalize more than 6,000 cultural relics that have been sleeping for thousands of years and reproduce their brilliance in more than 40 years of research.
Upholding integrity and innovating, passing on the torch. Guo Hanzhong is not limited to traditional practices, but integrates 3D technology, scientific testing, and other technologies into restoration work, filling many technical gaps. "Cultural relics are living history, and we must strive to contribute to the inheritance of the seeds of civilization from generation to generation," Guo Hanzhong said.
Dreaming of mountains and seas, not feeling far away; the road ahead is long, stride forward. On the new journey of Chinese-style modernization, the vast number of working people are down-to-earth, striving for progress, and striving to make new and greater contributions to the development of the Party and the country.

Go to Wuqiao, watch acrobatics! On the banks of the Grand Canal, Cangzhou (沧州), Hebei (河北) Province, the ancient city of Wuqiao (吴桥) enjoys the reputation of being the "First Home of Acrobatics in the World."
From the embryonic form of "Jiaodi Opera" (角抵戏) in the Qin and Han dynasties, to the development of "selling skills on the ground" (撂地卖艺) in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and then to the contemporary atmosphere of innovation, the millennium flame has been passed on from generation to generation. The land of Wuqiao (吴桥) has always been engraved with the vivid imprint of acrobatic art.
As the tide of the times surges, Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics is also looking for new opportunities for sustainable development: how to maintain its roots and innovate its form, so that the millennium stunt can take root and grow in the new era? How to fit the pulse of the times and inject new vitality into the development and inheritance of this national intangible cultural heritage?
Today's Wuqiao (吴桥) is refreshing. When millennium acrobatics meets cutting-edge technology, when a single performance form is integrated into diverse cultural tourism, when niche skills are integrated into the public's cultural life - Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics is standing on the stage of the times with a new attitude.
Expression: Technology empowers acrobatics, pushing the "thrilling and amazing" aspects and artistic aesthetics to new heights.
Wei Chunhua (魏春华), a provincial representative inheritor of Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics who has devoted herself to acrobatics for more than 40 years, is experiencing an aesthetic "rebirth" in a collision between tradition and the future.
The "Intangible Cultural Heritage Gala 2026" launched by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism (文化和旅游部) and other departments was recorded in Wuqiao (吴桥). At the scene, Wei Chunhua (魏春华), wearing a silver reflective performance costume, brought the program "Clearance · Skill" in the interweaving of traditional folk music and modern electronic music. In addition to several actors, her partners also included intelligent robot dogs, humanoid robots, and autonomous mobile robots. As soon as she appeared, she amazed the audience.
Wei Chunhua (魏春华) dedicated her housekeeping skill "Top Big Vat," with hundreds of pounds of big vat spinning rapidly on her toes. The robot dog transformed into an "intelligent acrobatic partner," flexibly shuttling around the actors, stopping at fixed points, and turning quickly, guarding the field and dancing. In the diabolo juggling segment, the diabolo was accurately thrown and caught by the actors and robots, drawing a perfect arc, with smooth movements and no difference.
The audience held their breath, and then there was thunderous applause. The subversive breakthrough brought by technology to acrobatics directly touched people's hearts.
In the past, Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics was spread in the form of "selling skills on the ground" (撂地卖艺), with pots and pans as props and streets and alleys as stages. Today, technological innovation has completely reshaped its expression paradigm, and Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics has been upgraded from skill display to an immersive artistic feast.
The acrobatic drama "Jianghu · Show" made Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics popular "out of the circle." 12 high-quality programs are connected in series in 70 minutes, deeply integrating traditional acrobatics with modern stage technology. Since its premiere in 2022, it has been revised four times.
As the lights dimmed, the melody of silk and bamboo intertwined with modern electronic music flowed slowly, a large screen spread out a blue starry sky, crystal water curtains fell from the sky, and gilded rings hung in the light and shadow. The actors, wearing light gauze skirts, hung in the air, fluttering and soaring, full of agility and elegance. The program "Aerial Ring" attracted the audience's attention from the very beginning.
"The theater stage can be raised, lowered, rotated, tilted, and moved. The background screen can be opened and closed back and forth, left and right, up and down, in cooperation with water curtains, jets, follow spots, and surround sound systems." Mou Shuangshuang (牟双双), chairman of Wuqiao Acrobatics World Tourism Co., Ltd. (吴桥杂技大世界旅游有限公司), said that the all-round modern stage art injected a new texture into traditional acrobatics.
Also in "Jianghu · Show," the actors in the program "Big Flying Wheel" walked and jumped rope blindfolded on a rapidly rotating giant wheel, and the big screen simultaneously simulated "high-altitude abyss, meteor trajectory," pushing the thrilling feeling to the extreme with sound, light, and electricity.
"Explore the clever use of sound, light, and electricity, which not only retains the worldly atmosphere of traditional acrobatics, but also integrates the magnificent scenes created by modern technology." Mou Shuangshuang (牟双双) said that the actors are constantly learning new programs, so that the skills and stage effects are deeply integrated.
At present, "Jianghu · Show" has been performed nearly a thousand times, receiving 726,000 visitors. In January 2026, it was selected into the second batch of national tourism performance boutiques by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism (文化和旅游部), becoming a shining business card of Hebei (河北) culture and tourism.
"The fifth revision has been launched, focusing on strengthening the sense of technology, promoting the intelligence of traditional props, and allowing traditional acrobatics to have an interesting dialogue with modern technology," said Mou Shuangshuang (牟双双).
As night falls, over the Wuqiao Acrobatics World Scenic Area (吴桥杂技大世界景区), thousands of drones change formations, turning ball skills, Deng skills and other traditional skills into technological paintings. Millennium skills are bursting with vigorous vitality in maintaining integrity and innovation.
Integration: From "watching acrobatics" to "playing acrobatics, learning acrobatics, and tasting acrobatics."
Gao Xiaochen (高笑尘), a 13-year-old boy from Xingtai City (邢台市), Hebei (河北) Province, felt that he was "very cool" since a "acrobatic performance" in Wuqiao (吴桥).
In the video, he played the classic Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatic program "Three Immortals Return to the Cave" (三仙归洞) smoothly, and jokingly called it a "pleasant show of skills." This unforgettable experience took place in the Wuqiao Acrobatics Museum (吴桥杂技博物馆), which was newly built in September 2025.
On that day, 500 primary school students from Xingtai (邢台) came to the museum for research. Nearly 2,000 square meters of exhibition space and more than 800 precious exhibits unlocked the past and present lives and legendary stories of Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics.
The children gathered around the artificial intelligence face-changing equipment, and with one click, they transformed into acrobats, performing "Three Immortals Return to the Cave" (三仙归洞), "High Car Kicking Bowl" (高车踢碗), "Top Flower Bed" (顶花坛), etc. The generated creative videos were all over their Moments; the acrobatic group portraits in "Ming Xianzong Lantern Festival Amusement Picture" (明宪宗元宵行乐图) were reproduced through digital empowerment; 102 acrobatic pottery figurines "came alive" with the help of three-dimensional and augmented reality technology. Belly-topping figurines and tooth-topping figurines took turns to display high-difficulty skills, and you can listen to exclusive explanations with a click...
From static display to dynamic dialogue, the millennium acrobatic context flows vividly in the digital world. The museum breaks the boundary of "only watching and not playing" and allows tourists to immerse themselves in touching the pulse of acrobatic inheritance.
Wuqiao County (吴桥县) is deeply cultivating the "acrobatics +" article, promoting the innovative integration and cross-border integration of acrobatics with research, tourism, homestays, etc., allowing tourists to change from the traditional "watching acrobatics" to "learning acrobatics, playing acrobatics, and tasting acrobatics," and expanding one-day tours to multi-day tours and in-depth tours.
In the Jianghu Cultural City (江湖文化城) in the Wuqiao Acrobatics World Scenic Area (吴桥杂技大世界景区), ancient acrobats shuttle through the streets and alleys, and stunts such as swallowing swords, climbing knives, and umbrella skills are performed in turn.
This is no longer a one-way output of "you perform and I watch," but an interactive field that can be deeply involved. Tourists instantly become "acrobats" and experience "breaking into the Jianghu" immersively.
In front of the Jianghu Tavern (江湖酒肆), rope skill performances attract tourists to try. At the arena competition, challenges such as throwing bottles, topping water glasses, and spinning handkerchiefs allow more tourists to enjoy the "acrobatic addiction" in fun competitions.
"Tourists enter the scenic spot and can embrace acrobatic art in a panoramic and zero-distance way. We have launched brand activities such as the opening ceremony, the Hundred Opera Stage, and the New Jianghu Eight Monsters, and the Spring Festival Intangible Cultural Heritage Temple Fair and the Jianghu Night Light Show are staged in turn, covering more than 10 million people online and offline," said Mou Shuangshuang (牟双双).
From audience to protagonist, from spectator to player, Wuqiao (吴桥) has upgraded the acrobatic experience from "watching" to "immersion."
The Wuqiao Acrobatics Magic Music City (吴桥杂技幻乐城), which opened on May 1 this year, has created the first panoramic immersive experience base for acrobatic culture in the country, allowing acrobatic intellectual property rights to be fully implemented.
In the past, tourists came and went in a hurry. Nowadays, "acrobatics + homestay" allows tourists to stay and experience slowly, integrating into the worldly atmosphere of the hometown of acrobatics.
Wuqiao Sangyuan Town (吴桥桑园镇) has built more than 30 acrobatic-themed homestays along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal (京杭大运河), with small courtyards of blue bricks and gray tiles scattered around, and foreign license plate vehicles parked in front of the door.
In Da Ninth Village (大第九村), Sangyuan Town (桑园镇), the homestay is close to the acrobatic scenic spot and is also equipped with an intangible cultural heritage courtyard. In the courtyard, acrobatic art bricks, acrobatic clay sculptures, acrobatic paper-cuts, acrobatic seal carvings and other unique charms, intangible cultural heritage inheritors visit from time to time, allowing tourists to "live out the fun."
"The occupancy rate is 70% on weekdays, and it is difficult to find a room during holidays," said Wang Dexin (王德新), secretary of the Party branch of Da Ninth Village (大第九村).
In Wuqiao (吴桥), integrated development connects the cultural tourism chain of "acrobatic culture + canal ecology + rural folk customs," driving the vigorous development of industries such as agricultural product sales and catering services.
In 2025, the 20th China Wuqiao International Acrobatic Art Festival (中国吴桥国际杂技艺术节) was successfully held, with more than 500,000 people participating on site. During the National Day holiday, it received 328,300 tourists and the total tourism expenditure was 164 million yuan. During the Spring Festival holiday in 2026, the number of tourists and total tourism expenditure in Wuqiao County (吴桥县) increased by 158.3% and 131.1% year-on-year, respectively.
Inheritance: From one school to the whole region, weaving a three-dimensional inheritance system.
Drones hover over Xinxing Road Primary School (新兴路小学) in Wuqiao County (吴桥县), recording the collective exhibition scene.
On the green field, thousands of primary school students wearing uniform clothes, holding lightweight thin poles, steadily holding white discs on the top of the poles, skillfully exerting force on their wrists, and the discs spin like tops. In an instant, countless discs spin together, and the light and shadow are intertwined, like the ocean dancing and like stars twinkling.
This is one of the oldest traditional programs of Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics - "Spinning Plates" (转碟). Why does an ordinary primary school cultivate so many acrobatic "seeds"?
Founded in 1985, Hebei Wuqiao Acrobatic Art School (河北吴桥杂技艺术学校) is the first secondary vocational school of acrobatic art in the country and the "main position" for the inheritance of Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics. Over the past 40 years, starting from the initial 35 students, it has cumulatively transported more than 4,000 professional talents to the country, trained more than 1,000 foreign students, and won more than 30 gold, silver and bronze awards in acrobatic competitions at home and abroad.
Nowadays, the inheritance of Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics has long jumped out of the pattern of "one school dominating" and woven a three-dimensional network covering campuses and villages.
"Professional coaches taught the earliest batch of children, and then the senior grades tutored the lower grades, hand in hand, old leading new, and passed on from year to year. In the past 11 years, the ripples of acrobatic art have expanded wider and wider," said Chen Ying (陈英), vice principal of Xinxing Road Primary School (新兴路小学).
Wuqiao County (吴桥县) has upgraded the "Acrobatics Entering Campus" project to the "Acrobatics Residing in Campus" project. "Upgrading 'initial popularization, sending teachers to schools' to 'normalized, institutionalized, and branded deep cultivation', campus acrobatics learning has changed from 'mobile activities' to 'rooted ecology'," said Wei Lili (魏丽丽), deputy director of the Education and Sports Bureau of Wuqiao County (吴桥县教育体育局).
Incorporated into school-based courses and sunshine extracurricular activities, the establishment of normalized acrobatic clubs, teachers and students practice together, and home-school linkage... More than 100 primary and secondary schools and kindergartens in the county have achieved full coverage of acrobatic cultural education, and nearly 30,000 young people have participated in it.
Walking out of the campus, the acrobatic courtyards scattered in the countryside have become the "capillaries" of skill inheritance.
Zhang Shuo Acrobatic Courtyard (张硕杂技小院) in Sangyuan Town (桑园镇), with the characteristic model of "acrobatic supermarket," covers a total of seventy or eighty collective and individual training programs in categories such as high-altitude and ground.
The sun shines through the large windows into the training hall, and the red, orange, and purple training carpets lay out a world where strength and hope are intertwined. More than 30 children are carefully polishing acrobatic programs such as diabolos and water meteors.
"This baby is called Zhao Xue (赵雪), only 5 years old, has only been practicing for a few months, and now the technical movements such as the front hand flip, blanket turning, and handstand are very smooth!" At the scene, Zhang Shuo (张硕), the person in charge of the courtyard, pointed to a little girl and said.
Since the official launch of the acrobatic courtyard project in 2022, Wuqiao (吴桥) has built 14 acrobatic courtyards, distributed in 6 towns. "Taking families as units and masters and apprentices as links, it not only cultivates professional seedlings, but also opens to the outside world, attracting tourists to visit and experience, so that acrobatics can be passed down from generation to generation in the countryside and become an important supplement to the talent team," said Yang Junhong (杨俊红), director of the Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism Bureau of Wuqiao County (吴桥县文广旅局).
"Skills depend entirely on tools." Acrobatic props are the key support for skill inheritance. The acrobatic intangible cultural heritage workshop matrix established by Wuqiao County (吴桥县) has become the "second life" of guarding acrobatics.
Shadow plays, taming white mice, ten kinds of acrobatics... More than 10 kinds of props are neatly displayed, and each piece embodies ingenuity. Walking into Yu Yongyu Acrobatic Intangible Cultural Heritage Workshop (于永玉杂技非遗工坊), the person in charge, Yu Yongyu (于永玉), is guiding students to debug a portable land-anchor-free steel wire performance bracket.
"The bracket innovatively adopts a unique buckle design, which is very simple to build and disassemble, and can flexibly adjust the angle during performance, which greatly improves the smoothness and appreciation of the performance," said Yu Yongyu (于永玉).
Lightweight, safe, beautiful, and durable, Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatic props are constantly iterating and upgrading. With the model of "master-apprentice transmission and teaching with production," the county's 15 acrobatic intangible cultural heritage workshops have enabled some of the nearly lost production skills to be inherited in a living state, providing solid talent and prop support for the county's acrobatic industry.
From deep cultivation in one school to full coverage in the whole region, the innovative inheritance system built by Wuqiao (吴桥) acrobatics makes the millennium stunt no longer the skill of a few people, but a cultural gene integrated into the lives of all people. Innovating in maintaining integrity and developing in inheritance, the name card of "Hometown of Chinese Acrobatics" is becoming more and more shining, and the ancient skills are blooming with vigorous vitality in the new era.

Some say that to understand the people and culture of Sichuan, watching Sichuan Opera is a "shortcut." This statement has its merits because our passionate lives, daily meals, the four seasons, our character and pursuits, our thoughts and ideas, loyalty and righteousness, benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom, and everything else are vividly portrayed in Sichuan Opera.
At the end of 2025, the third Sichuan Opera Festival of Sichuan Province, the "Beijing Exhibition Week," concluded at the Mei Lanfang Grand Theater (梅兰芳大剧院). The four major operas, "The Tale of the White Snake" ("白蛇传"), "Face Changing" ("变脸"), "Dust Settles" ("尘埃落定"), and "The Story of Fu Nu" ("芙奴传"), as well as a special performance consisting of four excerpts, received rave reviews both online and offline. The unique performance skills, vocal music, and regional aesthetics attracted praise from young people: they saw the vibrancy of life, human touch, and also unique skills and imaginative ideas.
Seniors once summarized Sichuan Opera as "every move inseparable from the everyday life of the people," which is very apt and accurate. The performance techniques and repertoire of Sichuan Opera are always rooted in folk life and secular emotions. Even historical themes and myths and legends will present the joys and sorrows of characters in a humorous, exaggerated, and vivid way. For example, the image of "Old Su next door" in the Sichuan Opera "Dreaming Back to Dongpo" uses Sichuan dialect to recite "Ode to the Red Cliff" and sing "Ding Feng Bo," every move and every tune is natural and appropriate, like a cheerful and lovable Su Dongpo (苏东坡); in the Sichuan Opera "Face Changing" ("变脸"), the life of the Sichuan River wharf is vivid and dynamic, and the story of the drifter and Gouwa meeting, knowing each other, and depending on each other has moved countless audiences; in the opera song "Emei Mountain Moon Song," "The moon over Mount Emei is half an autumn, its reflection flows into the Pingqiang River," allowing Tang poetry and Song lyrics to enter life and be widely sung with Sichuan Opera sounds.
I entered the Sichuan Opera School in 1979, at the age of 15. From the very beginning, the teachers taught us to find inspiration in life—to be humane in dealing with people, to emphasize benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness, so that entering the play can be natural; in the tempering of skills, hand, eye, body, and footwork, one must ponder life and observe carefully, so that the performance will be deeply rooted.
In fact, this is all about being people-centered. Along this path, Sichuan Opera performers draw inspiration from the profound cultural heritage of the Bashu land, and masterpieces emerge frequently. The Sichuan Operas "Grass Shoe Magistrate" ("草鞋县令") and "Jiangjie" ("江姐") both won the Wenhua Award in 2022, which made us even more convinced that life is the source of art, and that rooting in life and rooting in the people is the root of the development of Sichuan Opera.
Sichuan Opera has been performed for more than 300 years, and its bloodline flows with the genes of innovation. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Kunqu Opera, Yiyang Tune, Qingyang Tune, Shaanxi Bangzi, Hubei Han Tune, Anhui Hui Tune, etc., flowed into Sichuan, and gradually "changed the tune and sang it," using Sichuan dialect to sing. The reason why there are five vocal腔: Kun, Gao, Hu, Tan, and Deng, is because various operas are constantly integrated, and Sichuan Opera absorbs and innovates. The innovations of "yesterday" have all accumulated into the tradition of "today."
Nowadays, many people, especially young people, are attracted to the Internet. Fragmented and entertaining content is certainly "eye-catching," but excellent traditional culture is more "heart-nourishing." How to attract young people? The development history of Sichuan Opera inspires us to innovate with the old—to learn from the "eye-catching" advantages, to draw successful experience and find communication rules from successful new popular art works, to innovate our traditions and extend the stage of opera. In this way, "interesting" and "meaningful" can be more closely combined, and ancient opera can resonate with the trends of the times.
Therefore, on the stage, the Sichuan Opera "Yan Yangchu" ("晏阳初") uses 270-degree环幕 projection and time-traveling narration, and the Sichuan Opera "Hot-Blooded Fanghua" ("热血芳华") integrates modern drama narrative logic and high-tech multi-dimensional stage, making the audience exclaim "Bashi" and "Enjoyable." More netizens are "fans" of the cool and popular style of "Sichuan Opera + Street Dance," and the short video "Ancient Shu Travels to the Edge of the Sky" allows Sichuan Opera's "unique skills" to break the circle; the "Sichuan Opera + Cultural Tourism" exploration that can be experienced and interacted with has become a new engine for cultural tourism development, and the Sichuan Opera show at the Jinjiang Theater (锦江剧场) attracts a large number of young audiences holding coffee; on new media platforms, the popularity of Sichuan Opera is increasing day by day, and many onlookers have turned into participants and co-creators...
Getting closer and closer, innovating and innovating again, many works have become online "hits," and they have also become one with young people offline, achieving a double harvest of social and economic benefits.
In 1982, Sichuan proposed "revitalizing Sichuan Opera." Forty-four years later, Sichuan Opera has blazed its own path. In February of this year, the Central Propaganda Department (中宣部) and other five departments jointly issued the "Three-Year Action Plan for the Revitalization of Drama (2026-2028)," to promote the innovation of traditional drama in inheritance and the development in innovation. The new era and new policies bring more opportunities for the development of drama. Sichuan Opera performers must firmly root their feet on the ground, continue to produce talents and dramas, and reap fruitful results.

Before officially "meeting" the character Shao Yunfei (邵云飞), my understanding of him was limited to "a reporter who is going from the provincial capital to the patrol team to do an interview."
After my first conversation with Director Li Xue (李雪), I became deeply interested in the words "going" and "patrol team" in relation to the reporter in the drama, which became my initial entry point for understanding this character. Why did he go to that no-man's land, and why did he go to the "patrol team"? These were the questions I hoped to answer when I was looking at the information in the early stages.
Excellent works such as the documentaries "Balance (平衡)," "Qinghai: Our National Park (青海·我们的国家公园)," "Forward (一路前行)," and the film "Kekexili (可可西里)" helped me quickly deepen my understanding of Qinghai (青海), the Sanjiangyuan (三江源), and the protection of the Tibetan antelope, and also made me aware that for so many years there has been a group of patrol team members silently guarding this land. At that time, I thought, I have found the motivation and meaning for a reporter to record.
It wasn't until I got the script and really set foot on the land of Qinghai (青海) that I realized my preparation was far from enough.
My working habit is to read the script first, then carefully read each scene of the character, and make a "sketch" of the character in my mind. When I get to the scene, I "color" and add "flesh and blood" to carry out detailed character creation. But the subject matter of this play is different. The no-man's land, the patrol team, and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (青藏高原) are things I can't come into contact with in my life, and I can't use my existing experience to understand them. Until I stood on the plateau, the real altitude, the real oxygen content, the wind and snow hitting my face, and the wind blowing my eyes open, I felt very small, but I also felt some flesh and blood slowly growing in my body, as if I was that "fool" from the provincial capital, that reporter with ambition, ideals, and pursuits.
On the set, Director Li Xue (李雪) would tell a lot of information that was not in the script, all of which he had obtained from interviewing real patrol team members over the years. These stories have a subtle influence on the actors. After thinking and digesting, my thoughts on the patrol team and Shao Yunfei (邵云飞) became more and more familiar and certain, and the character in my heart became more solid.
After watching the finale of "Tree of Life (生命树)," I thought of the first scene. That day was the first official day of work for the whole crew, and it happened to coincide with the construction of the national highway, so the entire crew could only take unpaved roads. After a few hours of bumpy rides, the no-man's land slowly unfolded in front of us. During the process, I kept thinking, that's how the reporter "went" back then, right? Back then, he was just like us, with a mission and expectations, with a determination that was unknown but without the slightest hesitation, with the idea of using the camera to tell the outside world what was happening on this land, he resolutely came to the patrol team, to everyone's side.

Have family and friends ever asked you what you're busy with at work? This question seems ordinary, but upon closer reflection, the experiences and feelings of daily labor are often sealed within an individual's life because they have never been seen. This is how many video bloggers start filming—because they are asked by relatives and friends about their daily work, they simply pick up their mobile phones and record a video as an answer. Later, the target of the answer changed from relatives and friends to thousands of strangers on the Internet.
Think about it, 20 years ago, if we wanted to understand the group of long-distance truck drivers, we could probably only do so through media reports. A reporter once sat in the co-driver's seat and followed the truck for thousands of kilometers before slowly grasping the specific and subtle survival textures of those behemoths on the highway. Today, however, mobile phone lenses have long become a zero-threshold recording tool, and short video platforms have also built a channel directly to the public eye, so that workers no longer need to wait for someone to report or speak for them. They can set up equipment during work breaks and tell the story of their daily work themselves.
This is a silent but profound media shift that inspires us to think about the meaning of "seeing." Cultural studies scholar Raymond Williams said: "Culture is ordinary." He believes that culture does not have to be on the bookshelf or in the concert hall; the way ordinary people deal with daily life is the culture of an era. When workers press the record button themselves, those long-silent personal experiences are no longer silent, but become a form of cultural expression.
While labor life is being seen, the judgment, sense of propriety, and control of details attached to labor also enter the public eye. These qualities were only recognized and evaluated within the industry in the past, but now any audience in front of the screen can recognize their weight. This is a re-brightening of the value of labor. The value of labor has always existed; what is lacking is a beam of light shining on the workers. This beam of light is now lit by every viewfinder.
Being seen is just the starting point. When the knowledge and experience of labor life reach more people through new media, the self-demands of workers also change. Daily work is fixed by the lens and can be watched repeatedly. The pressure from the lens will be transformed into the worker's internal self-discipline, and the craftsman's consciousness and pursuit are also reactivated in the continuous gaze. For every additional viewer, the work in hand must be done more beautifully. This is not a constraint, but a driving force for the improvement and inheritance of skills. At the same time, the market and opportunities are also broadened along this channel. A craft that is seen has the opportunity to support a person; a professional knowledge that is disseminated may open a door. After the value of labor is lit up, it not only receives likes, but also truly changes the situation of workers.
The gaze itself can also condense into a community of emotions. Millions of people seriously watch how a carpenter turns a piece of wood into an object, and then watch how a delivery boy helps a passerby drag a tricycle stuck in the mud out of a puddle, and then write down word by word in the comment area, "The world should be like this." These words are not just an expression of emotion; they complete a value confirmation and reach a consensus on kindness. When more and more people are willing to stand with these simple virtues and are willing to stop for the kindness that passes by, labor is no longer just labor. It connects the subtle emotions between workers and slowly spreads into a social network of empathy.
From a family member's concern to a craft being seen by us, to a kindness on the street being solemnly confirmed, this process may not be earth-shattering. It just allows the labor life that has always existed but rarely been noticed to come to our eyes one by one. Digital civilization is often described as a competition of algorithms and computing power, but through the viewfinder of workers, we can see the warm other side of digital civilization: it is not that technology has run ahead of the times, but that life, with the help of technology, has returned to us.

I am a rural girl born and raised. When I was a child, my home was very close to the railway track. I could not only hear the long whistle, but also the sound of the wheels crushing the rails, "clank, clank." Whenever a train passed by, my family would hold me and watch in the yard, watching the "green, long, running iron box" slowly pass by. This was the beginning of my connection with trains.
Later, I often saw train attendants with suitcases at the train station. Their capable, neat, confident, and high-spirited temperament was particularly eye-catching. With a yearning for the railway industry, after graduating from high school, I applied to the former Jilin Railway Institute (吉林铁道职业技术学院), and after graduating, I successfully joined the railway system.
From childhood to adulthood, whether it was neighbors or relatives and teachers, they all praised me for my cheerful personality, saying that I had the politeness of "greeting people when I see them," the courage of "not being afraid of things," and the generosity of "loving to smile and being proactive." These characteristics also led me to start trying self-media creation. In 2019, short video platforms rose, and I opened my own account, "Ying Boss (影老板)."
At first, I just casually recorded my daily work. I didn't expect that the content I posted would be loved by everyone. Gradually, I became the "railway internet celebrity" in everyone's mouth. With the continuous enrichment of content, I realized that the "Ying Boss (影老板)" account should not only share personal work, but also become a bridge of communication between railway workers and netizens. Everyone's attention and likes made me more determined to do railway science popularization self-media.
I use an authentic Northeastern accent and humorous and vivid performances to explain the boring rules and regulations in an easy-to-understand way. Netizens affectionately call me "railway contacts on the internet" and "railway travel encyclopedia." As of now, the "Ying Boss (影老板)" account has released 452 short videos, with over 6.5 billion views and 110 million likes. Behind these numbers is everyone's trust and support for China Railway.
"Ying Boss (影老板), I like you so much!" "Ying Boss (影老板), when will you update?" "Ying Boss (影老板), your videos are so useful, I have forwarded them to the family group!" Every time I am on duty, I meet many passengers who I have never met before but feel very close to. One day, I received a thank you letter: "Thank you so much. My grandmother is sick and needs to go from the village to the city to see a doctor. She didn't know how to transfer trains. After watching your video, she understood everything and bought time for treatment." At that moment, my eyes were wet.
Many people ask me, are the two identities of "train conductor" and "railway internet celebrity" contradictory? I firmly answer that this is a "1+1>2" career. The train conductor is offline, and the short video is online. When the two are added together, the service efficiency can be maximized.
The identity of the train conductor allows me to think about problems from the perspective of passengers. I have filmed many practical travel short videos such as "How to open the toilet door," "How to adjust the seat," and "What to do if you miss the train." At the same time, I deeply know that if an "internet celebrity" wants to be popular for a long time, they must continue to output valuable content. Therefore, I constantly study and research, improve my business level, and strive to provide passengers with better services.
In short video creation, my deepest feeling is the rapid development of China Railway: Initially, I filmed the CRH5 series EMU with non-rotating seats. Now, the world-leading CR450 EMU has entered the application assessment stage. Railway hardware is constantly updated and iterated, and railway services are also improved simultaneously. Every year, railway rules and regulations are adjusted and improved according to passenger needs. China Railway, speed and warmth coexist.

What new tricks can be done with the ancient profession of carpentry? This used to be a question in my mind. Now, listening to the sounds of planing wood, watching the ink seep into the wood grain, and smelling the aroma of wood, I gradually find the answer.
I am not satisfied with being just a carpenter who masters one or several processes. I want to be a carpenter with professional aspirations, polishing value with time and carrying forward the skills.
Becoming a carpenter requires passion. I am a post-95s (born after 1995) generation, and my hometown is a small mountain village in Zunyi (遵义), Guizhou (贵州). From childhood to adulthood, my academic performance was not outstanding, but I was very interested in painting. From books to the white walls of my home, there are my works. After graduating from junior high school, my parents found an old carpenter and asked me to become his apprentice, burying myself in tables, chairs, cabinets... This decision completely released my passion.
After only studying for more than a year, my father asked me to work in a car wash. Day after day, step by step, I didn't like this kind of life, and I couldn't let go of the carpentry I was thinking about, so my parents finally compromised. I returned to my hometown, actively searched for information, and devoted myself to studying wood construction techniques, determined to make a name for myself.
Becoming a carpenter requires innovation. "Chi, chi, chi..." The plane is close to the wooden board, and the curled wood flowers rustle down, and the trouser legs are covered with sawdust. In addition to learning to make conventional furniture, I tried to make some interesting objects, such as my mother's wooden bracelet. I chose a piece of fine-grained boxwood, first planed it smooth, sawed out the general outline, and then replaced it with a carving knife to remove the excess parts little by little. In order to make the curvature of the bracelet fit the wrist, I repeatedly gestured on my own hand, and then sanded it with sandpaper until the surface of the bracelet was smooth and delicate. The moment I saw the finished product, my mother's eyes turned red.
Making bracelets for my mother, lunch boxes for my father, high heels for my wife, and a Chang'e 5 (嫦娥五号) probe model for myself... My previous painting skills helped a lot in making these works. I also taught myself carving and design, and the effect after clever integration was amazing, giving the old craftsmanship a new vitality.
Becoming a carpenter requires perseverance and inheritance. Staying in the village for the past few years, I found that no young people are willing to be carpenters, and most of the nearby carpenters are also in their sixties and seventies. I suddenly felt that I had a responsibility to preserve this traditional skill and let young people see its brilliance.
In June 2019, on the advice of a friend, I filmed the scenes of my usual work and uploaded them to a short video platform. After posting three episodes in a row, there was no response. I was very conflicted. I wanted to give up but was unwilling to do so. Later, I found inspiration from movies and animations, and used wood to restore the props in them. Unexpectedly, it suddenly became popular. The first video of making a sword had 40 million views and over one million likes, and from then on, it was 一发不可收拾 (yī fā bù kě shōu shí - "once fired, cannot be taken back," to get out of hand; to be beyond redemption). The video broke through the circle, and fans left messages to customize works. Everyone's love and support made me see the infinite possibilities of traditional skills integrating into modern life, and strengthened my choice to stay in the mountain village as a carpenter.
A few days ago, part of an old man's wooden house in the village collapsed, and I had a bold idea: to build a new wooden house for her for free. After drawing the drawings and finding a few carpenters to help, the living room part has now been completed. The kitchen will be built during the "May Day" holiday, and we will strive to finish the work within a month! Doing all this, I just want more people to know that traditional skills are like wooden houses, durable and beautiful, traditional and trendy.

I once joined the competition for online traffic in March 2020, fueled by my passion for travel. Like many travel bloggers, I bought a lot of necessary equipment, and like many bloggers, I was submerged in the vast ocean of the self-media era.
In 2021, we formed a photography studio, which not only had a team but also added food elements. But the effort turned into nothing, and in disappointment, the other members of the team returned to their original jobs, leaving me to "struggle" in the industry. After 3 years without a "hit," I said to myself: "You are not cut out for this, it's time to go to work."
In February 2024, the day after my thirtieth birthday, I joined my first formal job - oversized cargo transportation. Before joining, the referrer repeatedly confirmed with me: be prepared to endure hardship, not only to be a good escort vehicle driver, but also to learn from the mechanical repair师傅 (shī fu - master), which is a very hard job.
On the first day of work, I habitually took out my mobile phone to record my daily life. The first video I posted was "accidentally" seen by the leader, and he said to me: "Young man, your video is good, it has 6000 likes!" Later, on my first on-the-job internship, I made a more detailed video, and the leader tacitly approved the entire shooting process, and the company also let me take into account the recording work of the transportation task.
The wheel of fate began to turn from this. Doing oversized cargo transportation work has given me a stable income, got rid of "traffic anxiety," and also provided the most precious video material - huge trucks carrying oversized wind turbine blades and generator sets, surrounded by pilot cars and escort vehicles, going to plateaus, crossing canyons, and breaking into deserts, sending tens or even hundreds of tons of key components to those amazing infrastructure projects for the world, some of which are even the "last piece of the puzzle."
Inadvertently, 柳暗花明 (liǔ àn huā míng - "willows dark flowers bright," a sudden turn for the better after a period of difficulty). In the past, on the road of travel, I was always thinking about what script to write and how to shoot to get traffic; only when I started doing oversized cargo transportation did I realize that there are always all kinds of stories and episodes on the road, and life is the best script. Whether it is the team working together to safely and smoothly turn a corner, or passing through a village or town, everyone curiously watching and inquiring, or after a long night in the Gobi Desert (戈壁滩), the warmth brought by the rising sun that cannot be described in words... These real people, stories, and scenery have become the most touching "ignition points" for netizens in my videos, and have also brought me millions of likes and tens of millions of viewers.
The sense of accomplishment followed. It is not only the attention of netizens that gives me the greatest sense of gain, but also the delivery of unparalleled infrastructure equipment and major national instruments to the "work post." Once, we expedited the "delivery" of thermal power plant equipment for the manufacturer, and we had to rush from Deyang (德阳), Sichuan (四川) to Hami (哈密), Xinjiang (新疆) within 10 days. We kept the vehicles running and people working in shifts, and completed the task 3 days ahead of schedule. That sense of participation in the national construction and development is precious bit by bit. I think this is also the deep reason why "oversized cargo transportation videos" resonate.
Looking back on the road I have traveled, I always feel that life is about "persisting a little longer." Like a large truck carrying heavy goods, it can only travel tens of kilometers in seven or eight hours, which is slower than walking, and climbing slopes is even more difficult, but only by experiencing these will the seeds of dreams sprout, bloom, and bear fruit.
So, as I write these words, the next journey is about to begin.

I've worked odd jobs, been in factories, and switched many jobs, but being a delivery driver is the profession I've stuck with the longest.
The interesting thing about this job is that every day when I go out, I don't know who I'll meet or what will happen. I like that feeling of freedom and enjoy riding my bike through the city.
I set a plan for myself to stay in each city for a few months, using food delivery to explore more and experience different scenery and cultures. From Chongqing (重庆), I moved to Guiyang (贵阳), and then rode my motorcycle north to Chengdu (成都). Along the way, I repeatedly listened to the song "Orchid Grass" ("兰花草"), "I come from the mountains, bringing orchid grass..." which is a true reflection of this young man from the county—relying on a motorcycle and a pair of hands to slowly find my place in the city.
Originally, I only planned to stay in Chengdu (成都) for a short time, but as soon as I settled down, I had the idea of settling here permanently. Chengdu (成都) has a relaxing atmosphere, and I was determined to put down roots here.
Three years ago, I started shooting short videos. At first, I mostly recorded the hardships of delivery drivers—the toil in the sun and rain, the grievances after being misunderstood by customers. But as I edited, I gradually realized that simply venting emotions only made me angrier. I figured viewers wouldn't feel comfortable either, and that wasn't my original intention. On the first day back to work in 2025, I casually filmed a heartwarming little thing on the way to deliver food. I didn't expect the video to get over 1 million likes. That was the first time I truly felt that recording the warmth on the road is far more powerful than complaining about grievances.
After a year of exploration, I completely changed my creative direction, focusing on recording interesting and healing daily life on the road, hoping to pass this simple joy on to more people.
At the beginning of this year, I edited together heartwarming clips I filmed while delivering orders in Chengdu (成都) in 2025 and released them: helping a passerby push a tricycle, giving accumulated mineral water bottles to a recycling old woman, encouraging a timid little boy to challenge the slide, cheering for elementary school students riding bicycles... and my loud singing and rambling along the way. This video received 15 million likes, 280 million views, and 500,000 comments. Someone commented, "This is how the world should be."
I film the most ordinary daily little things, just collecting and gathering the faint light scattered on the road. Many netizens have told me through comments or private messages that my videos bring motivation to their work and life. Whenever I see such messages, I am filled with emotion: I am just an ordinary delivery driver, a helpful hand, a happy state, a casual record, and it can bring such meaning to others.
My account profile has always been this sentence: "I like the feeling of blowing in the wind and listening to music on the road. If there are no updates, I am delivering food on Meituan (美团)." The 2 million followers were accumulated in the gaps between orders, one segment at a time. Delivering food is my job, but it is also the soil for all my stories and creations.
During the "May Day" holiday, I still shuttle through the streets and alleys of Chengdu (成都). The wind is still the familiar wind, the city is still this beloved city, and my phone is ready at any time, waiting for the next moment worth recording.
Gathering ordinary moments can become the light that illuminates life.

Since university, I have been immersed in the Chinese language profession for nearly 30 years. In the classroom, my "workstation" is the teacher's platform; while online, my "workstation" is the filming location in a study. Although the two have different forms, they are both teaching. What is the essence of teaching, this labor? When the classroom extends from the classroom to the internet, I have a new answer to this question.
My connection with the internet began with an accident. In the first half of 2020, I started online reading sessions for students and casually recorded some videos of lecturing on the *Classic of Poetry* (《诗经》), which I posted online, and they attracted attention. At that moment, I suddenly realized that a new wave was coming: there is a large classroom on the internet, and unlike traditional classrooms, teaching here is conducted in the form of questions and answers, and knowledge appears in the form of communication in the first instance.
This made me re-examine the profession of "teacher." Each generation has its own scholarship, and teaching methods must also keep pace with the times. In the past, it was said that "rites are heard to be learned, not heard to be taught." Today, students are not satisfied with the classroom and will go online to find courses to listen to, so teachers can no longer wait for students to ask questions, but must go among them and transmit knowledge in the language and forms they are familiar with. Online, the fundamental responsibilities of "imparting knowledge, teaching skills, and resolving doubts" have not changed, but the teaching method has been completely reshaped. It is no longer entirely up to me to decide what to teach, but to stand in the user's position, understand their confusion, guide their interests, and interact more.
For me, academic research, classroom teaching, and short video popularization are all integrated, and none of them can be done well without the others.
Academic research is the foundation. The popularization of knowledge cannot just be a scholar's "lower-dimensional expression," but requires the "restatement of academic discourse" on the basis of in-depth research. Through sincerity and empathy, rigorous academic achievements are transformed into wisdom that ordinary people can understand and use.
Classroom teaching is a bridge connecting scientific research and popularization. The content I talk about online comes largely from students' questions in class. Without classroom interaction, there would be no accumulation of these questions; without the accumulation of questions, there would be no in-depth research. Conversely, the questions from netizens during short video popularization constantly feed back into my classroom teaching and academic research, giving me new perspectives and fresh experiences. The three nourish each other, forming a wonderful cycle, and they all point to one goal: how to truly reach people's hearts with knowledge.
I always hold a simple wish: to hope that the brilliance of humanities education can be continuously felt by ordinary people in the process of growing up. When a child first reads Tang poetry, they may only find it easy to recite, but after growing up and leaving home, they suddenly understand the feeling of "being alone in a foreign land as a stranger," and then, after becoming a parent, they read a new weight from "who says that the heart of an inch of grass can repay the warmth of the spring sun." Humanities education is not a one-time knowledge infusion, but a spiritual nourishment that accompanies a lifetime. What humanities education wants to convey is the warmth of life.
Whether it is the "gentleman's personality" advocated by Confucianism, from the inside to the outside, from oneself to others, or the "view of all things" advocated by Taoism, breaking out of the limitations of human beings and seeing the inherent value and rhythm of things, these ideas seem very grand, but they can actually be implemented in a person's growth process. The popularization of knowledge and the transmission of humanities, in the final analysis, is to make the most precious parts of the Chinese people's spiritual genes manifest in life practice.
The work of a teacher is to do the work of imparting knowledge with a diligent heart. Whether "imparting knowledge" takes place on the teacher's platform or between thousands of screens, the essence of labor remains unchanged. I am willing to work diligently, cultivate deeply in the world of classical literature, and sow seeds in the fields of the internet. I believe that every serious labor will not be disappointed, and the brilliance of humanities education will eventually illuminate more long journeys of life.
