China,
which is proud of four great inventions in ancient times, has once again showed
its ability to change the world with its "four new great inventions":
high-speed railways, mobile payments, shared bicycles and online shopping.
The
four innovative ways of life were the most attractive to youths from 20
countries taking part in the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation,
according to a survey by the Belt and Road Research Institute (BRRI) of Beijing
Foreign Studies University.
"The
'four new great inventions' are all linked to China's high-tech innovation,
which has improved the quality of people's lives," said Wu Hao, a director
of the BRRI.
"My
wallet is no longer in use. I can buy and eat whatever I want simply with a
fingertip on my phone," said Lin Jinlong, an overseas Chinese student from
Cambodia, adding that even pancake sellers are using Alipay (mobile payment). "We
can also order food at home, which is super convenient. If I were at home in
Cambodia, I would have to go outdoors."
The
bikes themselves are not new, but the operating mode of bike-sharing is based
on satellite navigation system, mobile payment, big data and other high
technologies.
"China
has entered a new innovative time," said Bernhard Schwartlander, World
Health Organization Representative in China. As a huge fan of bicycles, he also
expressed his love for China's shared bicycles, saying that "shared bikes
are bringing cycling back to people's lives".
Rebacca
Fannin, a founder and editor of Silicon Dragon, noted that China is beginning
to lead in innovation in some ways. "It is increasingly clear that China
is innovating and no longer copying Western ideas," she said.
A
growing number of foreigners hope to push economic development in their home
countries by focusing on the need for technological achievements like that of
China. Lin mentioned his experience of taking the high-speed train from Beijing
to the coastal city of Tianjin, which is more than 100 km away. The journey
took only half an hour, while in Cambodia, which has only two railways, such a
journey may take up to three hours.
