China's sharpened focus on cultivating strategic emerging industries during the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-30) period will give fresh vitality to nurturing new quality productive forces and help the country better navigate external uncertainties while maintaining its edge amid global competition, said officials, experts and company executives.Their comments came as China plans to make more efforts to accelerate the development of emerging sectors such as new energy, new materials, aerospace and the low-altitude economy during the 15th Five-Year Plan period, according to the recently unveiled Recommendations of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China for Formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development.President Xi Jinping said the recommendations were initiated in line with the country's strategic development goals, recognizing the pivotal role of the next five years, and based on an in-depth analysis of both the domestic and global landscapes.Xi, who is also general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, said, "It is important that we seize this window of opportunity to consolidate and build on our strengths, remove development bottlenecks, shore up areas of weakness, seize the strategic initiative amid intense international competition, and secure major breakthroughs in strategic tasks of overall importance to Chinese modernization."The remarks were made in Xi's explanatory speech on the recommendations for formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan, delivered at the fourth plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, which concluded in Beijing in late October.Yao Jun, head of the department of planning at the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that "President Xi's speech is grounded in reality and forward-looking, and it has pointed the way forward for us in all our endeavors".According to Yao, the achievements during the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25) period have laid a solid foundation, and the strategic tasks proposed going forward are comprehensive and well-focused.Yao said, "We will anchor our work on developing new quality productive forces, driven by the deep integration of technological and industrial innovation."He added that the focus will be on intelligent, green and integrated development, moving manufacturing from scale expansion to value creation.Zhu Min, former deputy managing director of the International Monetary Fund, said the distinctive strength of China's economy lies in its strong real economy and industrial system."As China's technological capabilities continue to grow, the key challenge — and opportunity — is to effectively integrate these advancements to cultivate new industries driven by new quality productive forces. That's central to China's future economic trajectory," he said.Zhu also said such a trend is already mirrored in China's emphasis on strategic emerging industries such as new energy and the low-altitude economy. These sectors are poised for significant growth, built upon the robust momentum of China's "three new" economies — new industries, new business forms and new models — which already contributed over 18 percent to the country's GDP as of 2024, according to the National Development and Reform Commission.Zhu Keli, founding dean of the China Institute of New Economy, said, "China's goal of nurturing these frontier sectors not only reflects confidence in our own industrial capabilities but, more critically, serves as a key measure to seize the initiative in global sci-tech industrial competition."China has been the world's largest manufacturing country in terms of output for 15 consecutive years, and it ranks first globally in the output of over 220 industrial products, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology."Boasting such a complete industrial system, China provides rich application scenarios and enormous market potential for technological innovation, as well as solid support for the development of new industries," Zhu added.According to Zhu, emerging pillar industries, represented by the low-altitude economy, are now capable of driving growth momentum and are transitioning from "isolated breakthroughs" to "industrial-chain-wide expansion".Tian Gangyin, founder, chairman and president of the Chinese unmanned aerial vehicle developer United Aircraft, said the blueprint mapped out for the 15th Five-Year Plan period is "inspiring and motivating".Industrial-level drones are finding applications in a wide range of fields, such as emergency rescue work, power line patrolling, farming, and surveillance and security operations, he added.Aerospace is another strategic industry that China values, and in which companies are moving fast. Hainan International Commercial Aerospace Launch Co, for instance, plans to double its number of launch pads from two to four, and push forward rocket-recovery technology, marking a major step in the country's bid to build a globally competitive commercial space hub in Wenchang, Hainan province.Yang Tianliang, chairman of the company, said: "By end-2026, we will have launch pads No 3 and No 4, along with a new technical area and telemetry station. Once completed, the facility will be able to handle more than 60 launches annually, with each pad supporting launch missions every 10 days, or even weekly."Meanwhile, China is making progress in the new energy industry, such as in nuclear energy.Wei Zhigang, chairman of Hainan Nuclear Power Co, said artificial intelligence computing fuels an exponential surge in demand for electricity, and it is increasingly difficult for the traditional energy supply to meet such a huge demand."Secure, affordable and low-carbon energy has become a key factor driving the high-quality development of the intelligent computing industry," Wei said.

The most important task for the crew of the CNS Fujian — China's third aircraft carrier and the world's largest conventionally powered warship — is to conduct in-depth testing and additional trial runs of its equipment, according to the ship's captain.中国第三艘航空母舰、全球最大常规动力战舰——福建舰的舰长表示,该舰全体船员当前的核心任务是对装备进行深入测试和补充试航。Senior Captain Chen Zhi guo told State broadcaster China Central Television on Saturday that he will lead the crew to further test the vessel's capabilities. At the same time, they will make all-out efforts to prepare for the full-scale deployment of aircraft squadrons and to build joint combat capacity with other assets in the carrier strike group, he said.上周六,陈志国大校在接受中央广播电视总台采访时称,他将带领船员进一步检验舰艇性能。同时,全体船员将全力推进舰载机中队全面部署准备工作,构建航母打击群与其他作战力量的联合作战能力。"I'm convinced that, following the development path guided by President Xi Jin ping, we, the crew of the Fujian, will 'cleave through the waves' to complete our missions set by the Party and the people," Chen said.“我坚信,在习近平主席指引的发展道路上,我们福建舰全体官兵将劈波斩浪,完成党和人民赋予的各项任务。”陈志国说。The Fujian is the first aircraft carrier in the People's Liberation Army Navy equipped with a cutting-edge electromagnetic catapult system. It is also the largest, heaviest and most powerful naval vessel ever built in the Eastern Hemisphere.福建舰是中国人民解放军海军首艘配备尖端电磁弹射系统的航母,也是东半球有史以来建造的吨位最大、体量最重、战力最强的海军舰艇。The gigantic ship, which displaces more than 80,000 metric tons of water, entered service on Wednesday at a naval base in Sanya, Hainan province.这艘排水量超过8万吨的巨舰于周三在海南三亚某海军基地正式入列服役。Senior Captain Leng Guo wei, a spokesman for the Navy, said on Saturday that Sanya will be the supercarrier's home base due to factors including strategic demand, port conditions, support capacity and mission requirements.海军发言人冷国伟大校上周六表示,综合战略需求、港口条件、保障能力和任务需要等因素,三亚将成为这艘超级航母的母港。He said the Fujian will be sent to oceans far from China on a regular basis and added that it will not be long before the full-scale deployment of aircraft squadrons begins on the supercarrier.他透露,福建舰将定期前出远海执行任务,且舰载机中队全面部署已为期不远。Leng said the development and improvement of China's weaponry do not target any country or specific objective, nor will they pose a threat to any country or region. The efforts are solely aimed at safeguarding China's sovereignty, security and development interests.冷国伟强调,中国武器装备的发展不针对任何国家或特定目标,也不会对任何国家或地区构成威胁,完全是为了维护中国的主权、安全和发展利益。"Regarding China's follow-up development plans for aircraft carriers, they will be comprehensively considered based on national defense needs," Leng said. "It is important to emphasize that our country's nature as a socialist country, its strategic choice of taking the path of peaceful development, and its independent, peaceful foreign policy determine that we will never abandon our defensive national defense policy."“关于中国后续航母发展计划,将根据国防需求统筹考虑。”冷国伟说,“需要着重指出的是,中国社会主义国家的性质、走和平发展道路的战略抉择以及独立自主的和平外交政策,决定了我们永远不会放弃防御性国防政策。”An industry insider in China's shipbuilding sector, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the Fujian's commissioning "means the PLA Navy has entered the three-carrier club and is theoretically capable of deploying a carrier strike group anytime it wants. That also means the Navy's long-range operational capability is far stronger than before."一位不愿具名的中国造船业业内人士表示,福建舰的入列“标志着中国海军正式跻身‘三航母俱乐部',理论上具备随时部署航母打击群的能力,这也意味着海军的远程作战能力较以往有了质的飞跃”。conventionallyadv.常规地;按惯例地/kənˈvenʃənəli/catapultn.(航空母舰的)弹射器/ˈkætəpʌlt/deploymentn.部署;调度/dɪˈplɔɪmənt/

Over the next three days, Typhoon Fengshen will affect the central and northern South China Sea as well as southern coastal areas of China, the National Meteorological Center said on Monday, warning of potential damage from strong winds and secondary disasters caused by heavy rainfall.未来三天,“风神” 台风将影响南海中北部及中国南部沿海地区,国家气象中心于周一表示,并警示强风及强降雨引发的次生灾害可能造成破坏。The center issued a blue alert for Fengshen on Monday morning as the 24th typhoon of 2025 continued to strengthen over the South China Sea. As of 9 am, the storm's center was located about 455 kilometers northeast of Sansha city, Hainan province.由于 2025 年第 24 号台风 “风神” 在南海海域持续增强,国家气象中心于周一上午发布了台风 “风神” 蓝色预警。截至上午 9 时,台风中心位于海南省三沙市东北方向约 455 公里处。Fengshen is currently classified as a tropical storm, with maximum sustained winds of 82.8 kilometers per hour. Its wind field extends 220 to 280 km from the center. The storm is expected to move northwest at a speed of 20 to 25 km/h, gradually intensifying into a severe tropical storm or even a typhoon, with wind speeds reaching 108 to 126 km/h.目前,“风神” 被归类为热带风暴,最大持续风速为每小时 82.8 公里,其风场从中心向外延伸 220 至 280 公里。预计该风暴将以每小时 20 至 25 公里的速度向西北方向移动,并逐渐加强为强热带风暴,甚至台风,风速可达每小时 108 至 126 公里。By Tuesday, Fengshen is forecast to turn southwestward due to a cold front, heading toward the central coast of Vietnam and weakening as it approaches.预计到周二,受冷锋影响,“风神” 将转向西南方向移动,朝越南中部沿海地区前进,且在靠近过程中强度逐渐减弱。The typhoon will bring heavy rain and strong winds to eastern and northern Taiwan, the coastal areas of Fujian, Guangdong and Hainan provinces, and the northern part of the South China Sea. From 2 pm Monday to 2 pm Tuesday, northern Taiwan is expected to experience heavy to torrential rain, with some areas receiving 100 to 200 millimeters of rainfall.该台风将给中国台湾岛东部和北部、福建、广东、海南三省沿海地区以及南海北部带来强降雨和大风。从周一下午 2 时至周二下午 2 时,台湾北部预计将出现大雨到暴雨,部分地区降雨量可达 100 至 200 毫米。Meanwhile, a cold front will continue to affect central and eastern China, causing temperatures to drop by 4 to 6 C in these regions, as well as parts of Guizhou and Yunnan provinces. Some areas may see a temperature drop of up to 8 C, with the "0 C line" pushing southward to central North China.与此同时,一股冷锋将持续影响中国中东部地区,导致这些地区以及贵州、云南两省部分区域气温下降 4 至 6 摄氏度。部分地区降温幅度可能达 8 摄氏度,0℃等温线将南压至华北中部。The center said due to the combined effects of the cold front and Fengshen, the southern East China Sea, the Taiwan Strait, the northern South China Sea and coastal areas of Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong provinces are forecast to experience winds of up to 117.4 km/h, with gusts of up to 149 km/h, from 2 pm Monday to 2 pm Tuesday. It also issued a yellow alert for strong winds.国家气象中心表示,受冷锋与 “风神” 台风的共同影响,预计从周一下午 2 时至周二下午 2 时,东海南部、台湾海峡、南海北部以及浙江、福建、广东三省沿海地区将出现最大风速达每小时 117.4 公里的大风,阵风可达每小时 149 公里。该中心还发布了大风黄色预警。From Oct 19 to 28, heavy rainfall is expected across several regions. Some areas — including parts of Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangdong and Hainan provinces, as well as Taiwan and the Xizang autonomous region — may receive 80 to 150 mm of rain, with eastern Hainan and northern Taiwan exceeding 250 mm.10 月 19 日至 28 日期间,多个地区预计将出现强降雨。其中,四川、云南、贵州、广东、海南五省部分地区以及台湾地区和西藏自治区,降雨量可能达 80 至 150 毫米;海南东部和台湾北部部分地区降雨量将超过 250 毫米。Rainfall in these areas is expected to be 50 percent to 80 percent above the average for this time of year, according to the center.国家气象中心称,这些地区的降雨量预计将比常年同期偏多 50% 至 80%。Most of central and eastern China will experience average temperatures 1 to 3 C below the seasonal norm over the next 10 days. In contrast, temperatures in the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau will be 1 to 3 C above average.未来 10 天,中国中东部大部分地区平均气温将较常年同期偏低 1 至 3 摄氏度。与之相反,新疆维吾尔自治区和青藏高原地区平均气温将较常年同期偏高 1 至 3 摄氏度。The center warned that widespread frost is expected, potentially affecting crop storage and agricultural facilities. Starting Tuesday, the prolonged rainy period in the Huanghuai region will end, aiding autumn harvests, soil drying, and the planting of winter wheat and rapeseed, it added.国家气象中心警示,预计将出现大范围霜冻天气,可能对农作物储藏及农业设施造成影响。该中心补充称,从周二开始,黄淮地区持续已久的降雨天气将结束,这将对秋收、土壤散墒以及冬小麦和油菜播种有利。typhoon音标:/taɪˈfuːn/翻译:n. 台风(发生在西北太平洋和南海的热带气旋)meteorological音标:/ˌmiːtiərəˈlɒdʒɪkl/(英式);/ˌmiːtiərəˈlɑːdʒɪkl/(美式)翻译:adj. 气象的;气象学的(常修饰 “center”“data”“conditions” 等词,如 “meteorological center” 意为 “气象中心”)sustained音标:/səˈsteɪnd/翻译:adj. 持续的;持久的(在气象语境中常修饰 “winds”,表示 “持续风速”,如 “maximum sustained winds” 意为 “最大持续风速”)frost音标:/frɒst/(英式);/frɔːst/(美式)翻译:n. 霜冻;霜 v. 结霜;受冻(文中指 “霜冻天气”,可能对农业造成影响,如 “widespread frost” 意为 “大范围霜冻”)

During the just-concluded National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, millions of travelers across China were able to travel light—sending local specialties and souvenirs home through China's fast-growing parcel delivery network. For many, the packages may have even arrived before the travelers themselves.在刚刚结束的国庆中秋双节假期期间,中国数百万游客得以轻装出行——通过中国快速发展的包裹快递网络,将当地特产和纪念品寄回家中。对许多人而言,这些包裹甚至可能比他们先到家。According to the State Post Bureau of China, the nation's postal and courier industry handled 7.23 billion parcels during the eight-day National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, which ended on Wednesday, maintaining stable operations amid a surge in tourism and holiday consumption. The daily average parcel volume exceeded 900 million, reflecting robust consumer demand and the growing vitality of the country's holiday economy.中国国家邮政局数据显示,在周三(10月8日)结束的八天国庆中秋假期期间,全国邮政快递行业共处理包裹72.3亿件,在旅游和假日消费激增的背景下保持了运营稳定。日均包裹量超9亿件,反映出强劲的消费需求和中国假日经济日益增长的活力。Courier companies embraced new "express delivery + culture and tourism" models, setting up service outlets, smart lockers and self-service boxes at railway stations, airports, hotels and scenic areas. The move offered travelers greater convenience while turning tourism flows into new consumption momentum, the bureau said.国家邮政局表示,快递公司推出“快递+文旅”新模式,在火车站、机场、酒店和景区设立服务网点、智能快递柜和自助寄件箱。此举为游客提供了更大便利,同时将旅游人流转化为新的消费动力。In popular destinations such as Kashgar in the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, Sanya in Hainan province, and Lhasa in the Xizang autonomous region, shipments of local specialties rose sharply during the holiday. By collaborating with merchants, courier companies helped create a "travel–purchase–ship" consumption loop. At scenic spots like Qiandao Lake in Hangzhou, Gulangyu Island in Xiamen, and Beijing Road in Guangzhou, themed courier stores and parcel lockers catered to tourists' needs for shipping souvenirs and luggage.在新疆维吾尔自治区喀什市、海南省三亚市、西藏自治区拉萨市等热门旅游目的地,假期期间当地特产的寄递量大幅增长。快递公司通过与商家合作,助力打造“旅游—购买—寄递”消费闭环。在杭州千岛湖、厦门鼓浪屿、广州北京路等景区,主题快递门店和包裹寄存柜满足了游客寄递纪念品和行李的需求。This year's "golden week" sparked strong travel and consumption momentum nationwide. By optimizing operations and diversifying services, courier firms enriched travel experiences and unlocked new consumption potential, according to the bureau.国家邮政局指出,今年“黄金周”在全国范围内激发了强劲的旅游和消费势头。快递公司通过优化运营、丰富服务类型,提升了游客的出行体验,并释放了新的消费潜力。Ahead of the holiday, shipments of popular festive goods—including mooncakes, hairy crabs, seafood, meats and fresh fruits—surged. To ensure freshness and efficiency, companies established collection points and cold-chain warehouses in provinces such as Guangdong, Guizhou, Jiangsu and Hubei, allowing goods to be dispatched directly from production sites. They also optimized trunk routes, boosted air freight capacity, and adjusted transport resources dynamically to meet the seasonal rush.假期前夕,月饼、大闸蟹、海鲜、肉类、新鲜水果等热门节庆商品的寄递量大幅上升。为保障商品新鲜度和配送效率,快递公司在广东、贵州、江苏、湖北等省份设立集货点和冷链仓库,实现商品从产地直接发运;同时优化干线运输路线、提升航空货运能力,并动态调整运输资源,以应对季节性物流高峰。On the final leg of delivery, companies adopted multi-warehouse coordination and intelligent dispatching systems to achieve "nearby delivery", speeding up services.在配送末端环节,快递公司采用多仓协同和智能调度系统,实现“就近配送”,提升了配送速度。According to the bureau, China's postal and courier sector continues to enhance service capacity while deepening integration with the cultural and tourism industries. By innovating diversified consumption scenarios, it is injecting new vitality into the holiday economy and supports stable consumption growth.国家邮政局表示,中国邮政快递行业在持续提升服务能力的同时,正深化与文旅产业的融合。通过创新多元化消费场景,快递行业为假日经济注入新活力,并助力消费稳定增长。 State Post Bureau of Chinan.中国国家邮政局 /steɪt pəʊst ˈbjʊərəʊ ɒv ˈtʃaɪnə/courier companies (in China)n.(中国的)快递公司/ˈkʊriə ˈkʌmpəniz (ɪn ˈtʃaɪnə)/

As Super Typhoon Ragasa approaches, public transportation in Guangdong province — particularly train services — will be heavily disrupted starting on Tuesday, while most coastal cities in the province have suspended school, work, production and business operations.随着超强台风“桦加沙”逼近,广东省公共交通(尤其是铁路运输)将于2日起遭遇严重影响,该省多数沿海城市已启动停课、停工、停产、停业措施。Ragasa, the 18th typhoon of 2025, was upgraded to a super typhoon by China's National Meteorological Center on Sunday morning, with the maximum wind force near the center reaching above level 17.“桦加沙”作为2025年第18号台风,中国气象局于周日上午将其升级为超强台风,台风中心附近最大风力达17级以上。High-speed and regular trains within Guangdong will gradually be suspended from noon on Tuesday, with the range of suspensions adjusted systematically according to the storm's impact, China Railway Guangzhou Group said on Monday. All train services in the province will be suspended on Wednesday, it added. Services are expected to resume once the typhoon weakens, with schedules updated accordingly.中国铁路广州局集团有限公司1日发布消息称,2日中午起,广东省内高铁及普速列车将逐步停运,停运范围将根据台风影响情况统筹调整;3日,该省所有列车运行将全面暂停。待台风强度减弱后,铁路部门将逐步恢复列车运营,并及时更新列车运行时刻。The typhoon is forecast to make landfall along the coast from Huizhou in Guangdong to Wenchang in Hainan province between the early morning and afternoon on Wednesday. At that time, it is expected to be a strong typhoon or super typhoon, with winds of level 14 to 16, said Wang Haiping, chief forecaster at the National Meteorological Center.中国气象局首席预报员王海平表示,预计“桦加沙”将于3日凌晨至下午时段,在广东惠州至海南文昌一带沿海登陆。登陆时,其强度预计为强台风或超强台风级别,风力可达14至16级。"One of the main reasons for the high intensity of Typhoon Ragasa is that the ocean has been continuously heated throughout the summer, resulting in relatively high sea temperatures after autumn," Wang said. He added that typhoons in autumn often interact with cold air masses moving south, a process that lifts warm, moist air and can trigger extreme rainfall.王海平指出:“台风‘桦加沙'强度偏高的主要原因之一,是整个夏季海洋持续升温,导致入秋后海温仍处于较高水平。”他补充道,秋季台风常与南下的冷空气相互作用,这一过程会抬升暖湿气流,可能引发极端强降雨。"The strong typhoon will bring heavy to torrential rainfall in South China's coastal area," Wang said at a Monday news conference.在1日召开的新闻发布会上,王海平强调:“此次强台风将给我国华南沿海地区带来大到特大暴雨。”Authorities in Guangdong on Monday morning raised the province's wind emergency response to Level II, the second-highest in China's four-tier warning system.1日上午,广东省应急管理部门将该省台风应急响应级别提升至Ⅱ级——这是我国四级应急预警体系中的第二高级别。Local railway operators have adjusted train operations based on the storm's expected path.

Strong winds and heavy rain whipped South China's Hainan province and parts of Guangdong province on Sunday, as Typhoon Kajiki passed over open waters to the south of Hainan and headed toward Vietnam's central coast.周日,台风“剑鱼”经过海南南部的开阔水域,向越南中部海岸移动,强风和暴雨袭击了中国南部的海南省和广东省部分地区。A short video posted online by Guangdong Radio and Television showed winds snapping off tree branches, and heavily rocking a docked boat and sending waves sliding over the pier.广东广播电视台在网上发布的一段短视频显示,风刮断了树枝,一艘停靠在码头上的船剧烈摇晃,海浪滑过码头。Kajiki gained strength as it moved westward over the sea with maximum sustained winds of 162 kilometers per hour, China's National Meteorological Center said.中国国家气象中心称,“剑鱼”向西移动,在海上增强,最大持续风速为每小时162公里。Rainfall of 25 to 40 centimeters was forecast for southern parts of Hainan Island, including Sanya, a popular beach resort.预计海南岛南部地区将有25到40厘米的降雨,包括著名的海滩度假胜地三亚。Hainan took extensive measures to prepare for Typhoon Kajiki, amid fears that it could be the strongest typhoon to hit the region in the past 40 years.海南采取了广泛的措施来应对台风“剑鱼”,人们担心这可能是过去40年来袭击该地区的最强台风。As Typhoon Kajiki approached, the province raised its emergency response to the highest level. The typhoon, the 13th of the year, intensified from a severe tropical storm to a full typhoon at 2 am on Sunday. It gained strength and headed toward Hainan's southern coast, with landfall or a close pass expected on Sunday evening, said Cai Qinbo, spokesperson for the Hainan provincial meteorological bureau.随着台风剑鱼(Kajiki)的逼近,该省将应急响应提升至最高级别。今年的第13号台风于周日凌晨2点从强烈热带风暴增强为台风。海南省气象局发言人蔡钦波表示,台风增强并向海南南部海岸移动,预计将于周日晚上登陆或近距离通过。Authorities in Sanya evacuated 31,843 people from potentially vulnerable areas to safety by 3 pm on Sunday, according to the city's publicity department. Temporary shelters were set up at some local facilities like primary schools to receive the affected.据三亚市宣传部称,截至周日下午3点,三亚市有关部门已将31843人从潜在脆弱地区疏散到安全地带。在小学等一些当地设施设立了临时避难所,以接收受影响的人。Across the province, over 770,000 emergency supplies had been prepared for vulnerable areas.

China launched a group of internet satellites into orbit on Monday evening, marking the third in-orbit deployment of such spacecraft in eight days.周一晚上,中国发射了一组互联网卫星进入轨道,这是八天内此类航天器的第三次在轨部署。The satellites are the seventh group of low-orbit hardware in China's State-owned internet network. They were lifted by a Long March 12 carrier rocket at 6:21 pm on Monday from the Hainan International Commercial Aerospace Launch Center—a coastal spaceport in Wenchang, Hainan province—and soon arrived in their orbital positions, according to China Aerospace Science and Technology Corp, maker of the Long March 12 rocket.这些卫星是中国国有互联网网络中的第七组低轨道硬件。据长征十二号火箭制造商中国航天科技集团公司称,这些卫星于周一下午6点21分由长征十二号运载火箭从海南省文昌市的沿海航天港海南国际商业航天发射中心升空,很快就到达了轨道位置。The fifth group was launched on July 27 and the sixth on July 30.第五组于7月27日启动,第六组于7日30日启动。The satellites were manufactured by GalaxySpace, a Beijing-based private satellite company, at its "smart factory" in Nantong, Jiangsu province, that features highly intelligent assembly robots and automatic quality testing systems.这些卫星是由总部位于北京的私人卫星公司银河航天在其位于江苏省南通市的“智能工厂”制造的,该工厂拥有高度智能的装配机器人和自动质量检测系统。Monday's launch was the first time that satellites designed and built by a private company were deployed as part of the national mega-constellation project.周一的发射是私营公司设计和建造的卫星首次作为国家大型星座项目的一部分进行部署。The first six groups of space-based assets in this network were made by State-owned entities such as the Innovation Academy for Microsatellites of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the China Academy of Space Technology, a subsidiary of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corp.该网络中的前六组天基资产是由中国科学院微型卫星创新研究院和中国航天科技集团公司下属的中国空间技术研究院等国有实体制造的。Previously, several GalaxySpace satellites were launched to take part in a technology demonstration for the State-owned internet network, but they are of an experimental nature and are not formal members in the network.此前,发射了几颗银河空间卫星参加国有互联网网络的技术演示,但它们是实验性质的,不是网络的正式成员。Now, the private enterprise has become a leader in the domestic commercial satellite market, with 34 satellites that have been launched, ranging from China's first plate-shaped satellites equipped with foldable solar arrays to the nation's first communications satellite with a transmission capacity of 10 gigabits per second.现在,这家私营企业已经成为国内商业卫星市场的领导者,已经发射了34颗卫星,从中国第一颗配备可折叠太阳能电池板的板状卫星到中国第一颗传输能力为每秒10千兆比特的通信卫星。"Next, GalaxySpace will make all-out efforts to develop core technologies that meet major needs of our nation's space industry, including cutting-edge phased array antennas, mega-constellation networking solutions, on-board large-scale energy systems and digital processing payloads," Hu Zhao, a senior satellite designer at Galaxy-Space, said on Tuesday.“下一步,银河空间将全力开发满足我国航天工业重大需求的核心技术,包括尖端相控阵天线、超大规模网络解决方案、机载大型能源系统和数字处理有效载荷,”银河空间高级卫星设计师胡赵周二表示。He said the company will also speed up the low-cost mass production of satellites and various key equipment, and continuously push the boundaries of technological capabilities, so as to contribute to forming China's independent and reliable space infrastructure.他说,该公司还将加快卫星和各种关键设备的低成本大规模生产,不断突破技术能力的界限,为形成中国独立可靠的太空基础设施做出贡献。Monday's mission marked China's 43rd space launch this year and also the second flight of the Long March 12 rocket model.周一的任务标志着中国今年第43次太空发射,也是长征十二号火箭的第二次飞行。Designed by the Shanghai Academy of Spaceflight Technology, the Long March 12 is the 22nd member of the Long March family, the backbone of China's space sector, and the 17th in the operating fleet.长征12号由上海航天技术研究院设计,是长征家族的第22位成员,是中国航天事业的中坚力量,也是现役舰队的第17位成员。It is the first Chinese rocket to have a diameter of 3.8 meters—most Chinese rockets have a diameter of 3.35 meters, a standard width set in the 1960s considering constraining factors in rail transport.这是中国第一枚直径为3.8米的火箭——大多数中国火箭的直径为3.35米,这是20世纪60年代考虑到铁路运输的限制因素而设定的标准宽度。Standing 62.6 meters tall, equivalent to the height of 22 stories of a standard residential building, the two-stage model is the second highest in all Chinese rockets, only exceeded by the 62.8-meter Long March 5.两级模型高62.6米,相当于一栋标准住宅楼的22层高度,是中国所有火箭中第二高的,仅次于62.8米的长征五号。cutting-edgen.尖端、先进的/ˈkʌtɪŋ ɛdʒ/orbital positionn.轨道位置/ˈɔːbɪtl pəˈzɪʃən/

About three hours later, the spacecraft docked with the space station's Tianhe core module.该机构在一份新闻稿中表示,经过短暂的飞行,火箭将天舟7号送入预设的近地轨道,机器人飞船的太阳能机翼很快展开,标志着发射任务的成功完成。大约三个小时后,飞船与空间站的天河核心舱对接。As the 17th spaceship, and the eighth cargo craft, connected with Tiangong, Tianzhou 9 is tasked with delivering propellants, science payloads and necessities for the Shenzhou XX astronauts, who have stayed in orbit for nearly three months, with their successors on the Shenzhou XXI flight scheduled to launch this winter.作为与天宫相连的第17艘宇宙飞船和第8艘货运飞船,天舟9号的任务是为神舟二十号宇航员及其继任者运送推进剂、科学有效载荷和必需品,神舟二十一号宇航员已在轨道上停留了近三个月,计划于今年冬天发射。Designed and built by the China Academy of Space Technology in Beijing, Tianzhou 9, like its predecessors in the Tianzhou series, boasts the biggest carrying capacity and the highest transport efficiency of its kind in the world, according to mission planners.据任务规划者介绍,由北京中国空间技术研究院设计和建造的“天舟9号”与“天舟系列”的前身一样,拥有世界上同类产品中最大的运载能力和最高的运输效率。The vessel is carrying hundreds of packages with a combined weight of nearly 6.5 metric tons, including several science and technology apparatus and two new spacewalk suits.该船载有数百个包裹,总重量近6.5公吨,包括几台科技设备和两套新的太空行走服。Orbiting Earth at about 400 kilometers above the ground, Tiangong is now the only space station in orbit that is independently operated by a single nation. The colossal outpost has three permanent parts — a core module and two science capsules — and is regularly connected to several visiting crew and cargo spaceships.天宫在距离地面约400公里的轨道上绕地球运行,现在是轨道上唯一一个由一个国家独立运营的空间站。这个巨大的前哨站有三个永久性部分——一个核心模块和两个科学舱——并定期与几艘来访的机组人员和货运飞船相连。cargo missionn.货运任务/ˈkɑːɡəʊ ˈmɪʃən/core modulen.核心模块/kɔːr ˈmɒdjuːl/

As dragon boats swiftly navigated the narrow waterways of the Diejiao water town in Foshan, Guangdong province, the crowds were thrilled at the jaw-dropping maneuvers and fierce competition.当龙舟在广东佛山叠滘水乡狭窄的水道中飞速穿行时,观众为其令人叹为观止的操控和激烈的角逐兴奋不已。The traditional racing event attracted more than 2 million visitors to the town during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday.端午节假期期间,这项传统赛事吸引了超过200万游客前来参观。The Diejiao dragon boat race is an intangible cultural heritage in Foshan. The narrow and winding rivers there prompt the rowers to perform dramatic stunts and sudden stops during the race, earning it the nickname of the "fast and furious".叠滘龙舟赛是佛山市的非物质文化遗产。由于河道狭窄蜿蜒,赛艇运动员在比赛中需要做出各种惊险刺激的动作和急停,因此被称为“速度与激情”。For example, in the Dongsheng competition section, each team of nearly 40 members must navigate a 25-meter-long boat at a high speed through a 560-meter course consisting of six sharp turns.例如,在东胜赛区,每支近40人的队伍必须驾驶一艘25米长的龙舟,高速穿越560米长的、包含六个急弯的赛道。The roar of paddles was matched by the thunderous shouting and cheering of excited spectators. Among the visitors was a 27-year-old marketing manager from Shenzhen, surnamed Zhu.桨声震耳欲聋,现场观众的欢呼声也如雷鸣般震耳欲聋。来自深圳、27岁的市场经理朱先生也在观赛人群之中。"It was my first time seeing a dragon boat race up close, especially the thrilling bend sprints unique to Diejiao," he said. "The atmosphere was marvelous and unbelievable, and crowds packed the riverbanks and even rooftops."“这是我第一次近距离观看龙舟比赛,尤其是叠滘独有的惊险刺激的弯道冲刺,”他说。“现场气氛精彩绝伦,令人难以置信,河岸甚至屋顶都挤满了人。”"From incense rituals and firecrackers to dragon boat races and lively food stalls, the village was alive with tradition," he said.“从上香仪式、鞭炮声,到龙舟竞渡和热闹的小吃摊,整个村庄都洋溢着传统气息,”他说。During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, from Saturday to Monday, Foshan received over 2 million visitors, marking a 46.11 percent year-on-year increase, said the local government.当地政府表示,端午节假期(周六至周一),佛山接待游客超过200万人次,同比增长46.11%。Tourism revenue is estimated to have surged to 1.015 billion yuan ($141 million) during the three-day holiday, up 49.26 percent year-on-year, it added on Monday.周一,佛山市政府补充道,预计三天假期旅游收入将飙升至10.15亿元人民币(1.41亿美元),同比增长49.26%。The competition in Foshan will last until June 15, and top teams from across Guangdong and those from other cities such as Hong Kong and Macao will be invited to participate.佛山的比赛将持续到6月15日,届时将邀请来自广东省各地以及香港、澳门等其他城市的顶尖队伍参赛。Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional holiday honoring Qu Yuan, one of ancient China's greatest patriotic poets, and is marked nationwide by thrilling dragon boat races.端午节是纪念中国古代最伟大的爱国诗人屈原的传统节日,全国各地都会举行精彩纷呈的龙舟比赛。Data from travel services provider Qunar showed that, as of Monday, searches containing keywords like "dragon boat" and "zongzi" more than doubled compared with the previous month, and bookings for destinations offering folk culture experiences rose more than 40 percent.旅游服务提供商去哪儿网的数据显示,截至周一,“龙舟”和“粽子”等关键词的搜索量环比增长了一倍多,预订提供民俗文化体验的目的地的数量增长了40%以上。In recent years, more areas have expanded their festivities by blending the races with local culture and tourism, creating richer and more immersive experiences for visitors and boosting the local economy.近年来,越来越多的地区将龙舟比赛与当地文化和旅游相结合,拓展了节日庆祝活动,为游客创造了更丰富、更沉浸式的体验,促进了当地经济发展。In Haikou, Hainan province, about 40 teams, including those from Malaysia, Singapore and the Philippines, competed in international dragon boat racing from Saturday to Sunday, attracting over 219,000 visitors, Haikou Daily reported.据《海口日报》报道,海南省海口市在周六至周日举办国际龙舟邀请赛,约有40支队伍参赛,包括来自马来西亚、新加坡、菲律宾的代表队,共吸引游客超过21.9万人次。In Fujian province, Fangzhuang village, one of China's largest wood dragon boat manufacturing hubs, received over 200 orders for dragon boats this year, setting a record.在福建省,作为中国最大的木制龙舟制造中心之一,方庄村今年接到了超过200艘龙舟的订单,创下了历史新高。Fang Jianwei, a dragon boat craftsman, said they have received orders from Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi provinces. There were also overseas orders, including those from the United States and Japan.龙舟工匠方剑伟表示,他们接到了来自福建、广东和江西等地的订单,也包括来自美国和日本的海外订单。Dragon boat traditions go beyond southern China. This year, northern-style racing returned to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in Cangzhou, Hebei province, after nearly 200 years.龙舟传统远不仅限于中国南方。今年,北方风格的龙舟赛事时隔近200年,重返河北沧州的京杭大运河。"The race highlights not just speed, but also skill and creativity," said Zhang Ge, deputy general manager of Cangzhou Grand Canal Development Group, adding that the city plans to turn dragon boat shows into a regular tourism product, integrating cultural, social and economic benefits to boost Cangzhou's cultural tourism appeal.“龙舟赛事不仅注重速度,更注重技巧和创意。”沧州大运河发展集团副总经理张阁说道。他还表示,沧州计划将龙舟表演打造成常态化旅游产品,集文化效益、社会效益和经济效益于一体,提升沧州的文化旅游吸引力。intangible cultural heritage非物质文化遗产maneuver/məˈnuːvər/n.精巧动作;策略;演习v.熟练地移动;操纵immersive/ɪˈmɜːrsɪv/adj.身临其境的;沉浸式的patriotic/ˌpeɪtriˈɒtɪk/adj.爱国的

Hainan, China's southernmost province, has a population of over 10 million and spans 35,400 square kilometers. Once a remote and underdeveloped island, it has been transformed into a rising hub for international trade and investment. A key part of this transformation is the Hainan Free Trade Port, which has garnered global attention and has been highlighted in China's Government Work Report for seven consecutive years. By the end of 2025, Hainan plans to establish independent customs operations, a significant milestone in its development. What are these operations? How will they impact Hainan, the world, and maybe even you? What makes this beautiful island so uniquely attractive?

We're joined today by Chef Johnny Lee, the mastermind behind Rasarumah, one of LA's hottest new restaurants serving inventive Southeast Asian food with a heavy Malaysian bent. Chef Johnny joins us to talk about the new concept, but also about what it was like to say goodbye to his deeply personal project Pearl River Deli. We talk about Hainan chicken, the struggles of learning to be a business operator when you've mostly worked the line your entire career, and what it's been like to partner with Last Word Hospitality on his new exciting venture.But first, I had the distinct pleasure of attending Taco Bell's Live Mas Live event in Brooklyn earlier this week. This is their event in the mold of Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference in which they offer sneak peeks from their test kitchen and roll out the new menu items for the year ahead. I met up with Daniel Wargo AKA Forking Around in the lobby of our hotel the morning after the event to debrief. Yes, we talk about which drops we're most excited about, but we also ask ourselves what LA restaurants can learn from the Live Mas lifestyle. I was honestly surprised by how much I enjoyed this event - not just the food, but really the ethos behind what Taco Bell does to innovate and to build a relationship with its fans. I think there's tons that even the most mom and pop of establishments can learn by taking a page out of the chalupa handbook, so to speak. Helpful links:Rasarumah https://rasarumah.com/Taco Bell Live Mas LIVE recap https://www.chowhound.com/1804512/taco-bell-new-menu-items-2025/Daniel Wargo https://www.instagram.com/forkingaround.tv/?hl=en–Go check out The Lonely Oyster in Echo Park! ⁠https://thelonelyoyster.com/⁠–Get 10% off at House of Macadamias using code "LAFOOD" https://www.houseofmacadamias.com/pages/la-foods

Pray for China Province of the Week: Hainan Island Hainan Island (Province) in China is matched up with the state of Hawaii for prayer.
