China's INSANE Modern Cities Are 50 Years Ahead of USA

Trains that run straight through apartment blocks, drones delivering orders above crowded ports, robotaxis with no one behind the wheel and factories that run in the dark. This 4K documentary tours 30 of China's most futuristic cities and megaprojects and compares them with how the United States is building today. From Shenzhen's undersea link and delivery drones to Chongqing's 3D transport network, Hangzhou's City Brain, Wuhan's suspended monorail and robotaxi fleet, Shanghai's automated Yangshan Port, the FAST telescope in Guizhou and giant solar and wind farms in the desert and out at sea, this is the infrastructure that is already working in China today, not in 2050.
