China’s announcement of a new supercomputer might sound like a niche technical development. In reality, it points to a much larger shift in the global technology landscape. At the center is the “Lingshen” project, presented by a supercomputing center in Shenzhen. The goal is ambitious: more than two exaflops of computing power—without relying on GPU […]
For years, the debate around the end of the internal combustion engine seemed settled, especially in Europe. Electric mobility was positioned as the inevitable future, while petrol and diesel engines were expected to gradually disappear. But a recent development from China challenges that assumption: a new combustion engine reportedly achieves a thermal efficiency of […]
or years, global manufacturers concentrated heavily on two major markets: China and the United States. But the industrial landscape is changing rapidly. Rising geopolitical tensions, supply chain disruptions, tariffs, and growing concerns about overdependence on China are pushing companies to diversify their industrial footprint. Increasingly, manufacturers are searching for locations that offer industrial scale, resources, […]
Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 A $2.8 billion deal in central Brazil doesn’t look dramatic at first glance. One mining project changes hands, investors line up, production ramps up. It could be just another resource story. It isn’t. At the center is the Serra Verde project in Goiás, currently the only operating rare earth mine in […]
1000 horsepower 0-100 km/h acceleration in under 2 seconds 400-600 kilometer range on a 5-minute charge China sales price: $41,000 Revealed at the Beijing Auto Show, the model takes the form of a four-seater convertible with a soft top, combining supercar styling with grand touring practicality. Power comes from a tri-motor all-wheel-drive setup producing over […]
A new Chinese technology might sound obscure at first glance, but it sits at the heart of modern military and industrial power. At issue are so-called “super powders” — ultra-fine materials used in everything from stealth aircraft coatings to jet engine components. China has just unveiled what is described as the world’s largest plasma-based milling […]
He Huifengin Guangdong China’s nuclear industry has reached a scale that no other country can currently match. According to a new report by the China Nuclear Energy Association, the country is now capable of building up to 50 nuclear reactors simultaneously. This doesn’t mean 50 reactors are being built right now. It means China has […]
Honda is doing something unusual: it is giving power back to its engineers. After years of centralized, management-driven decision-making, the company is spinning out its R&D unit again—effectively returning to a model where engineers, not executives, drive innovation. This is not nostalgia. It is a reaction. And the reason is clear: China. The China Shock […]

China has taken a major step in the global race for brain–computer interfaces (BCIs), granting the first-ever commercial approval for an implantable system developed by Neuracle Medical Technology. The device is designed to help patients with spinal cord injuries regain hand movement—marking a shift from experimental trials to real-world clinical use. Unlike earlier research-stage implants, […]
