WE Spent 48 hours in the WORLD'S most advanced city

我们在 “世界最先进城市” 待了 48 小时

We visit China's most futuristic city, also known as China's Silicon Valley, exploring a city which is leading the world in technology. Shenzhen is a city which was just a small fishing village in the 1970s but has grown into a tech powerhouse of 18 million people in 2025. We use Shenzhen's drone delivery service, we use a driverless tax's, view a robotics showroom and the incredible lights this city has when night falls!

我们探访了中国最具未来感的城市 —— 它也被称作 “中国硅谷”，这座城市在科技领域正引领全球。深圳在 20 世纪 70 年代还只是个小渔村，到 2025 年已发展成一座拥有 1800 万人口的科技重镇。我们体验了深圳的无人机配送服务，乘坐了无人驾驶出租车，参观了机器人展厅，还欣赏了夜幕降临时这座城市璀璨夺目的灯光！

以下是各国网友的评论：

Living in Tokyo, and every time when I go to China I feel Japan is stuck in 1990s

我住在东京，每次去中国回来，都觉得日本像停在90年代没动过。

amandaSpeet
Really huh? Thought Japan is comparable to China in lifestyle technology. Thx for the update.

真的吗？我还以为日本在生活科技方面能和中国比呢。谢谢你说这些，让我知道情况了。

they stuck in post WW2 period

他们（日本）都停在二战后那个阶段了。

I lived in Tokyo too, had a house around Asakusa but sold it. And I totally agree with you.

我之前也住在东京，在浅草附近有套房子，后来卖了。我完全同意你的说法。

I have been to both countries this year and even germany feels more Advanced. The Hype around Japan doesn’t do it’s Justice. Beautiful Country, good trains and clean but apart from that? Try buy a metro ticket without cash lol (SUICA doesn’t work on most phones except iPhones)

我今年去了中日两国，连德国都感觉比日本先进。大家把日本吹得太神了，根本名不副实。日本是挺美，地铁不错也干净，但除此之外呢？你试试不用现金买地铁票就知道了，哈哈

Japan has missed 3 technological revolutions since then: Internet, smart phone, and AI

从那时候起，日本错过了三次科技革命：互联网、智能手机，还有人工智能。

True. Back in the 1970s and 1980s, we thought Tokyo lived in the future, and now it is stagnated in the 1990s.

没错。七八十年代的时候，我们都觉得东京活在未来，可现在它却停在90年代停滞不前了。

Japan was living in the future (90s) in the 70s due to the bubble. Now, they're stuck in the 90s, not able to move on from the glory days.

因为经济泡沫，日本在70年代就过上了类似90年代“未来般”的生活。现在呢，他们却停在90年代，走不出过去的辉煌了。

Koenigg99
Japan has been stuck in the year 2000 since 1980.

日本从1980年起，就一直停在2000年那个水平。

Whereas Japan were living in the 1990s in the 1980s. The great surge and rise of Japan in the 60s/70/80s - and the juddering halt afterward, shows you cannot always assume when you visit a country on such an upswing that will continue on that trajectory indefinitely. Its quite possible that in 20 years time if you revisit China it will feel similalrly constrained. It will certainly have its own demographic headwinds increasing by then - not to mention headwinds from it being less than free now than it has been over the previous 30 years. It's sobering to know all empires surge, plateau and then crumble. All of them. It's just a matter of how long it all takes.

要知道，日本在80年代就过上了类似90年代的生活。日本在60到80年代飞速崛起，之后却突然停滞，这说明：看到一个国家处于上升期，不能想当然觉得它会一直顺着这个趋势走下去。

20年后再去中国，很可能也会觉得它发展受限。到那时候，中国的人口问题肯定会更严重，更别说现在的自由度比过去30年低，这也会成为阻碍。

想想挺清醒的：所有帝国都是先崛起，再停滞，最后衰落。没有例外，只是时间长短的问题。

ttemp2631
in the 80s japan was living in the 2000s. in 2025 japan is still living in the 2000s

日本在80年代就过上了2000年的生活，到2025年，它还是停在2000年的水平。

It’s more like 2050 and 2100 both are in the future bro

兄弟，其实2050年和2100年都还在未来呢。

Wow... imagine being an indian, seeing Japan and then china

哇塞，想想看，作为一个印度人，先去日本，再去中国，会是什么感受。

Didmasela
I absolutely agree with you that if you have been to or live in Tokyo, you feel Japan is stuck in 1990s after visiting China. I have had the same feeling because I have been to Tokyo first, and after some years to Shanghai and more recently Shenzhen.

我完全同意你的说法：去过东京或者住在东京的人，去中国之后都会觉得日本停在90年代。我也有这种感觉——我先去了东京，几年后去了上海，最近又去了深圳。

Japan still uses fax machines

日本现在还在用传真机呢。

What is also impressive is the speed with which China adapts new technologies

同样让人惊叹的是，中国接受新技术的速度太快了。

style4807
They put them into the market first, then look at the subsequent effects, and then use laws and regulations to restrict the problems discovered. Rather than restricting it with a bunch of laws in advance, that might stifle a future industry.

中国会先把新技术投到市场里，看看后续效果，再针对发现的问题用法规去规范。而不是先用一堆法规限制，那样可能会扼杀一个未来的产业。

efearl
They don't have to deal with bureaucracy and councils to get things done. Look at America, they're still debating about whether to build a train from 10 years ago. China is more like "Actions speak louder than words"

中国要办事情，不用应付那么多官僚程序和委员会。你看美国，10年前就讨论要不要修一条铁路，现在还在吵。中国更讲究“行动胜于言语”。

ffbeexaid4509
I am super China supporter but I am bit worried that terminator crap gonna happen here first.

我特别支持中国，但有点担心《终结者》里那种机器人作乱的破事会先在中国发生。

China is so big. My mother has been there 7 times but not done yet

中国太大了。我妈妈已经去了7次，还没玩遍呢。

MarcosSantos-dj6lk
I think only americans thinks that Seoul or Tokyo are cities from the future. This mentality is from the past, both of this cities are stagnated, around the world is already changed, China have at least 3 futuristic mega cities. Here in Brazil we already saw many times on TV Chengdu, Chongqing and Shenzhen are very well know for being technological.

我觉得只有美国人会觉得首尔或东京是“未来城市”。这种想法早就过时了，这两个城市都停滞了，世界早就变了。中国至少有3个充满未来感的特大城市。在巴西，我们经常在电视上看到成都、重庆和深圳，它们的科技感是出了名的。

AncientEnigmas88
Not true. Both Tokyo and Seoul are older more established cities so it's obviously harder for them to grow at the same rate but both unbelievably advanced and higher per capita gdp and cmon you're talking about Tokyo. They are still growing at 2 to 3% annually and are truly cities of the future and yes I'm American and yes I've been to China, south Korea and Japan

不对。东京和首尔都是历史更久、发展更成熟的城市，显然没法像中国城市那样快速度发展，但它们的先进程度让人难以置信，人均GDP也更高——拜托，你说的可是东京啊。它们每年还在以2%到3%的速度增长，绝对是未来感的城市。对了，我是美国人，而且去过中国、韩国和日本。

and then there are the poor countries that don't know anything

还有那些贫穷国家，对这些情况一无所知。

aidirivo
Chengdu is not a high tech city,, believe me

相信我，成都不是什么高科技城市。

rudyzk
I prefer Japan or S Korea, they have all of these techs plus more interesting customs, history. Besides in China the government knows all about you, from the time you wake up to how much money you have.

我更喜欢日本或韩国，它们有这些科技，还有更有意思的文化习俗和历史。而且在中国，政府对你了如指掌——从你起床的时间，到你有多少钱，都知道。

ermesliteratus882
Shenzhen is home to companies like BYD, Huawei, Tencent, and DJI, so it’s hardly surprising that when you visit, it feels like you’ve stepped into 2050.

深圳有比亚迪、华为、腾讯、大疆这些公司，去那里的时候，感觉像走进了2050年，这一点都不奇怪。

raymondqiu8202
But the percentage of people that are employees of those companies must still be small. Those companies only hire people with highly specialized skills so what are the jobs of the other 90% of people that live there? There's 17 million people that live there

在这些公司上班的人，比例肯定还是很小。这些公司只招技能高度专业的人，那其他90%的居民靠什么工作？深圳可有1700万人口呢。

jplin888
Less than 40 yrs ago it was a small fishing village.

不到40年前，深圳还只是个小渔村。

china is so underrated. most people in canada have no idea

中国被低估得太厉害了，加拿大大多数人都不知道中国的真实情况。

My family tried the drone delivery in Shenzhen last month. We had so many orders, and we received four drop deliveries one by one. It was really cool.

上个月我们家在深圳试了无人机配送，下了好多单，一个个收到了四次投递，太酷了。

OMG, China is definitely the future.

我的天，中国绝对是未来的样子。

Nice to see you again and thank you for sharing your experience in China.

很高兴又见到你，谢谢你分享在中国的经历。

look better and safer than any US cities I have been to including LA, Las vegas, SF.

看起来比我去过的所有美国城市都好、都安全，包括洛杉矶、拉斯维加斯、旧金山。

China is crazily ahead of today’s world

中国比现在的世界领先太多了，简直离谱。

Twicethejourney
I go to Shenzhen every 3 weeks. The robo tax is a fun experience

我每三周去一次深圳，无人驾驶出租车坐起来很有意思。

WillR8845
Native Beiinger here. Having studied and lived in Hong Kong and LA for a total of 8 yrs, I chose to return to Beiing 10 yrs ago, and it was one of the best decisions in my life. Our country is not without its own problems, yet we are proud of her, since it is everyone's hard work that got us where we are now. Glad that you guys had a great time here, and welcome back anytime

我是土生土长的北京人。之前在香港和洛杉矶学习生活了8年，10年前选择回了北京，这是我人生中最正确的决定之一。我们国家确实有自己的问题，但我们为它骄傲——因为现在的成就，是所有人努力换来的。很高兴你们在这里玩得开心，随时欢迎再来。

Drwild75
I am 90 years old praying to return to China since I was there when China hosted the summer Olympics with the Bird Nest and the cube.

我已经90岁了，一直盼着能再回中国。中国举办夏季奥运会的时候，我去过，见过鸟巢和水立方。

The most futuristic city in the world

中国这些城市是世界上最有未来感的城市。

I will give it to Dubai

我觉得迪拜才配得上“最有未来感”这个称号。

China is the World's true leader in technology! Amazing

中国才是世界真正的科技领导者！太厉害了。

Drone delivery is also available on the Great Wall of China, the Badaling section. Can also deliver emergency medicines if required. Looking forward to using this service on my first visit to China next year (the food delivery, not the medications, lol). Hi from New Zealand

中国长城八达岭段也有无人机配送服务，有需要的话还能送急救药品。明年我第一次去中国，特别想试试这个服务（是送外卖，不是送药哦，哈哈）。我在新西兰向大家问好。

swiss300173
I traveled to China in 2012 and even back then I had my eyes opened, fabulous place to visit, completely different to what we are led to believe via western media.

我2012年去了中国，即便那时候，也让我大开眼界。中国是个超棒的旅游地，和西方媒体让我们相信的样子完全不一样。

China is changing so quickly that if I left my hometown for two years, I’d feel like a stranger when I came back.

中国变化太快了，要是离开家乡两年，回来就会觉得自己像个外人。

Hi!! I'm from Shanghai, glad you guys are enjoying China! Hope you guys have fun enjoying Chinese cuisine and culture

嗨！我是上海人，很高兴你们喜欢中国！希望你们好好尝尝中国菜，感受中国文化，玩得开心！

Damn bro, I literally just left Shenzhen for Chongqing yesterday.

天呐兄弟，我昨天刚从深圳去重庆。

Living in india, and everytime I saw china I feel india is stuck in 1960

我住在印度，每次看到中国的样子，都觉得印度像停在60年代。

peterretep1010
in my view, China isnt in the future, but the present. All the others are still in the past.

在我看来，中国不是活在未来，而是活在当下。其他国家都还停在过去。

zarak002
Such amazing technology but also a bit frightening at the same time. But maybe i am sometimes slow to adapt to changes especially with mobile phone technology which i am still not really comfortable with. You look at Shenzhen and then u look at cities/towns in UK. Must be 200 years difference between the two with creaking infrastructure here. Ok maybe i exaggerate lol.

这些科技太厉害了，但同时也有点吓人。可能我有时候不太容易适应变化，尤其是手机技术，我现在用着还不熟练。你看看深圳，再看看英国的城镇，两者差距恐怕得有200年——英国这边的基础设施都老化得不行了。好吧，可能我有点夸张了，哈哈。

robinhodgkinson
My wife comes from Shenzhen. Been there quite a few times over the last decade or so and seen huge change in just that time. Huge fun and some beautiful parks and walks as well, beside the tech.

我妻子是深圳人。过去十几年我去了好多次，就这么点时间里，看到了翻天覆地的变化。除了科技感，深圳也很好玩，有不少漂亮的公园，适合散步。
