Premiere Overview
In the premiere of CGTN’s special 'A Home Across Borders: Fusion and Intelligent Upgrades in Shanghai', viewers are invited on a global journey through Shanghai, a vibrant hub on the Chinese mainland. The episode poses three big questions: How was a proposal to boost regional security and economic integration initiated in Shanghai? How has the light of technology illuminated industrial chains thousands of kilometers away? How do dream chasers achieve their goals, overcoming obstacles like mountains and oceans?
Seeding Regional Security & Economic Integration
The story begins with an innovative policy blueprint drafted by cross-sector think tanks and local leaders in Shanghai. This proposal laid the groundwork for stronger cooperation across neighboring provinces and beyond, setting a new standard for regional security and economic collaboration.
Tech as a Beacon for Global Supply Chains
Next, the special shows how breakthrough technologies—like AI-driven logistics platforms and digital twin simulations—are lighting up production lines from Southeast Asia to Europe. Shanghai’s tech ecosystem has become a central node, connecting factories, warehouses, and markets around the world with real-time insights.
Dream Chasers Crossing Borders
At the human level, the episode profiles young entrepreneurs and innovators who have turned vision into reality. From a sustainable textile startup led by an international team to a fintech entrepreneur optimizing cross-border payments, each story highlights resilience in the face of visa hurdles, cultural barriers, and unpredictable markets.
