The 139th Canton Fair concluded on May 5, setting a new record for overseas buyer attendance. Data from the China Foreign Trade Centre show that across 15 days and three phases, the fair welcomed a record 314,000 overseas buyers from 220 countries and regions who came to explore opportunities at “China’s No. 1 Fair.”
Inside the Canton Fair venue, the “PHYBOT C2” bipedal humanoid robot, capable of playing badminton, handles challenges from buyers with ease.
The event covered about 1.55 million square meters with 75,700 booths. More than 32,000 exhibitors participated, including about 3,900 first-time exhibitors. Over 4.65 million products were on display; new products, green products, and products with independent intellectual property rights accounted for 23%, 22%, and 25%, respectively — reflecting the “new, green and smart” direction of “Made in China” and “Made in Guangdong.”
During the fair, organizers held more than 600 new-product launch events. The number of new products introduced rose 27%, and events for emerging future industries increased 30%. The fair also showcased AI-enabled scenarios for the first time, including robotic patrol inspections and drone flight demonstrations.
Nine specialized exhibition zones were newly established for this session. Phase I featured zones for consumer drones, agricultural drones, smart wearables and display technology. Phase II debuted zones for bamboo and wood household products and tableware, integrated housing and outdoor facilities, and trendy accessories. Phase III added a zone for functional and technical fabrics. Nearly 670 enterprises took part in these specialized zones, erecting more than 1,300 booths and highlighting innovative developments across industries.
Guangdong province got off to a strong start in foreign trade this year. In the first quarter, its import and export volume, national share, incremental growth and contribution rate all ranked first in China. Exports reached 1.53 trillion yuan, up 14.3%, while imports reached 1.01 trillion yuan, up 27.8%. Import growth was broad-based, led by the “old three” — mobile phones, computers and home appliances — as well as garments and luggage. At the same time, the province advanced its “new three” products: exports of 3D printers, drones and digital cameras rose 136.9%, 51.2% and 60.2%, respectively. These products of new quality productive forces have received popularity worldwide. Exports of self-owned brands grew 38%, raising their share of Guangdong’s total export value in the first quarter to 26.6%.
As a vital window into China’s opening-up and a barometer of its foreign trade, the Canton Fair has evolved alongside the Chinese economy over its 70-year history. This session’s successful conclusion complemented Guangdong’s robust start in foreign trade. Many Guangdong enterprises used the Canton Fair platform to engage directly with global buyers and secure international orders, helping Guangdong maintain its top national ranking in foreign trade scale. In turn, Guangdong’s thriving development continuously injects vitality into the Canton Fair. The major foreign trade province’s strong industrial base, comprehensive supply chain and innovative products and technologies continue to sustain the fair’s global influence.

CGTN published an article examining how China’s young generation is turning emerging industries and new professions into fresh drivers of growth. From drone swarm flight planners and robot engineers to rural live-stream entrepreneurs, the article highlights how innovation, industrial upgrading and stronger policy support are opening broader development opportunities for young people as they inject their youthful dynamism into Chinese modernization.
At a recent concert in Nanning, 1,000 drones rose into the night sky, forming iconic symbols of south China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.
While the audience sees romance and spectacle, 22-year-old Yang Dan sees code, timing and precision. She writes flight scripts, plans routes and even decides exactly where each drone should be placed before takeoff. Her team has completed more than 150 drone performances so far.
Last year, Yang’s profession, drone swarm flight planner, was included in the newly recognized professions. Since China rolled out its new occupational classification system in 2019, seven batches have been unveiled, bringing 110 new occupations in total. This gives young people like Yang a clearer career path in emerging industries.
Youth shining in emerging industries
Across China, more young people like Yang are building careers in new sectors and helping drive industrial upgrading.
In Chengdu, southwest China’s Sichuan Province, a research team with an average age of under 30 has developed a second-generation wheeled humanoid robot.
The robot can perform Wing Chun movements, complete precise industrial tasks, and even take part in robot manufacturing.
The team works with clear division of roles. Pang Kai, 32, leads the lab and focuses on solving real industrial challenges. Li Lanxin, an algorithm engineer born in 1999, develops motion control systems to ensure safe human-machine interaction. Ding Yuxuan, a young researcher born after 2000, works on visual-language-action models, giving robots stronger perception and decision-making abilities.
Founded only two years ago, the team has already achieved key breakthroughs. For them, robots are not display pieces, but practical tools for factories, homes and businesses – designed to reduce repetitive labor and improve efficiency.
Far from industrial parks, youth innovation is also changing rural China.
In Hainan, Jiang Bizhen, a post-1985 generation agricultural live-stream host, has spent the past decade helping farmers sell local products online.
Her team has helped more than 3,000 farming households and created over 300 local jobs, allowing villagers to earn stable incomes close to home.
Thanks to the opportunities created by the Hainan Free Trade Port, local products now reach customers in Russia, Thailand and United Arab Emirates. Tropical fruits, coffee and specialty foods from the island are finding global markets.
Policy support behind youth growth
Behind these personal stories is a broader national effort to support youth development and employment.
Ahead of this year’s China’s Youth Day on May 4, President Xi Jinping encouraged young Chinese to integrate their personal aspirations into the bigger picture of national development, in a reply letter to the representatives of the awardees of the China Youth May Fourth Medal and New Era Youth Pioneer.
Stressing that 2026 marks the opening year of China’s 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030), Xi said the present time presents a prime opportunity for young people to contribute to the country’s development.
In March, authorities introduced a package of measures to boost employment for college graduates and young workers, encouraging job creation in advanced manufacturing, modern services, and technology-driven industries.
The country is also providing lower-cost startup spaces, stronger support for young entrepreneurs, and more training for modern agriculture and new professions.
In April, 15 government departments jointly introduced 18 measures, designed to improve urban environments for young people. The measures seek to transform cities into hubs where young people can pursue high-quality development, enjoy better living standards, and actively participate in governance.
Against this backdrop, President Xi urged young Chinese to stay rooted in their posts, strive for new achievements and inject their youthful dynamism into advancing the nation’s new journey of development.
