China has achieved its first successful artificial breeding of the loach (Traccatichthys pulcher), which is a huge breakthrough in fish conservation efforts at the Datengxia Water Conservancy Hub, according to the project's developer on Thursday. The fish species, endemic to the Pearl River basin, is known for its vibrant colors. It is a popular ornamental fish and an economically important species in the Hongshui River basin. Wild populations of this loach have declined in r

The Red Cross Society of China (RCSC) helped more than 16,000 seriously ill children over the past year, including financial support for over 7,000 young leukemia patients and more than 5,000 children living with congenital heart disease, it announced at a press briefing on Thursday.

In southwest China's Guizhou Province, Tang Hanlin, chairman of a data asset operation and digital-intelligence services provider, has witnessed a dramatic surge in just four months. His company's daily token calls skyrocketed from less than 3 billion in early January to nearly 12 billion in April, while order transactions jumped from under 70,000 to over 280,000. This explosive growth is not an isolated case. Across China, the national daily token calls exceeded 140 trillion

China has achieved a breakthrough in yak breeding using a combination of whole-genome selection and somatic cell cloning, with cloned calves successfully born and early-stage scaling underway, researchers said on Monday. The results were announced in Damxung County in southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region, where a joint research team said the technology could significantly improve breeding efficiency in a sector long constrained by slow genetic improvement and low reprod

Scientists in Shanghai have identified a "brake" gene that could potentially halt the progression of Alzheimer's disease, following the creation of the world's first functional map of regulatory "switches" in astrocytes — cells that protect and support brain neurons — using an innovative technology. The gene has already been validated in mouse models, where it significantly alleviated cognitive impairments, bringing performance close to that of healthy mice. The research team

At a bustling store in south China's metropolis of Shenzhen, a small crowd gathers around what looks, at first glance, like an ordinary display of plush toys. They are soft, round and brightly colored, the sort of companions that have filled children's rooms for decades. But then they begin to murmur in their own uniquely programmed digital dialect. At the prompt of a young girl, the beige "creature" in her hand, one of the palm-sized AI toys known as "Fuzozo," pauses, its ti

China released its first commercial space standard system on Friday, aiming to leverage standardization's guiding role in the development of the space industry and promote high-quality development of commercial space activities. The new standard system was issued by the China National Space Administration (CNSA) and the State Administration for Market Regulation in Chengdu, southwest China's Sichuan Province, at the launch ceremony of the country's 11th Space Day that fell on

China's television regulator said it has removed tens of thousands of AI-altered videos and penalized multiple accounts as part of a campaign to curb problematic online content. In a statement, the National Radio and Television Administration said a month-long campaign launched in January targeted videos that used artificial intelligence to modify classic television dramas, including adaptations of China's four great classical novels, as well as works with historical and revo

China will carry out intensive space missions in 2026, including Tianwen-2's close approach and observation of its target asteroid, an official of the China National Space Administration (CNSA) said on Friday. The country will also conduct crewed missions including Shenzhou-23, flight verification tests of multiple reusable rockets, and promote high-quality development in the commercial space sector, said Liu Yunfeng, deputy director of the CNSA's system engineering departmen

China's second domestically built large cruise ship, Adora Flora City, will be delivered in Shanghai on Nov. 6, nearly two months ahead of schedule thanks to digital and intelligent technologies that have helped accelerate construction, its builder said on Thursday. Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of China State Shipbuilding Corporation, said that it overcame the challenges of compressed construction timelines and overlapping multi-trade operations by

China is exploring leveraging nuclear energy to meet artificial intelligence's huge demand for electricity, as the token economy becomes the latest buzz word sweeping across the global tech industry. A token is the fundamental unit of data processed by an AI large language model. The momentum for the growth of the token economy grew stronger after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang described tokens as "the new commodity" during a recent conference, and global tech companies are ramping
