The digital economy and the importance of data as a factor of production have positioned Guiyang and Guian New District in Guizhou as a leading force in the development of the big data industry. Known as “China’s Digital Valley,” these regions in southwest China have embraced technological advancements and are shaping the future direction of development.

In addition to their contributions to the digital economy, Guiyang and Guian New District are also home to the “Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope” (FAST). As a major scientific and technological infrastructure project completed on September 25, 2016, FAST has expanded mankind’s understanding of the universe. It enables researchers to explore the origin and evolution of the universe, attracting the interest and collaboration of international scientific research institutions.

To showcase the wonders of Guizhou, a short video series called “Be My Guest · Modern Guizhou” was created by Guizhou Satellite TV.
