TCL, for instance, presented its portfolio of innovative technologies across multiple categories, including the world's largest QD-Mini LED TV and one of the industry's first smart connected mobile device entertainment solutions.

"China is a leader in the EV industry. We also want to help other global players excel in this industry," Paul Li, founder and CEO of U POWER, told China Daily.
The trio will conduct a series of experiments in fields such as life science, fluid physics, combustion science and materials science. Notably, this is the first time that fruit flies have been taken on a Chinese space mission as experimental subjects. What made scientists choose fruit flies? What experiment will they undergo?
