SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 1, 2026 – iQIYI says its first global offline entertainment park, iQIYI LAND, will open in Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province on February 8, 2026, bringing the platform’s Chinese film-and-TV stories into a highly interactive indoor theme-park experience.

A New Kind of Indoor Theme Park for Families and Travelers

iQIYI describes iQIYI LAND Yangzhou as a next-generation indoor theme park built around immersive entertainment and recognizable Chinese IP. Instead of a traditional ride-first model, the park is positioned as a place where visitors step into story worlds through technology, live interactions, and recreated sets. For families planning a holiday outing or travelers looking for something beyond the usual sightseeing, the promise is an experience that feels like entering a show’s universe rather than just watching it.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 1, 2026 – A new report from Great Wall New Media follows Edward, a Malawian farmer who trained in China’s Quzhou “Science and Technology Backyard” model and has now returned home to share practical farming guidance during Malawi’s December sowing season.

From a Training “Backyard” in Hebei to Real Fields in Malawi

According to the report, Edward recently completed training at the agricultural program in Quzhou and has gone back to Malawi, where he is applying what he learned in China to support local farmers with hands-on, practical advice. The story frames his return as a kind of full-circle moment: learning in a Chinese county known for field-based training, then translating that experience into day-to-day decisions that matter during planting season.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 15, 2025 – The idea of “taking a road trip” may be getting a serious upgrade in China, where the fast-rising low-altitude economy is being positioned as the next trillion-level industry. ARIDGE says it’s building for that moment with two distinct flight systems—one meant for personal, short-range experiences, and another designed for longer, faster, multi-passenger travel. Together, the company frames them as the start of a new era in three-dimensional mobility.

Two Very Different Ways to Fly
ARIDGE’s approach isn’t “one flying car for everyone.” Instead, it’s a two-track vision for low-altitude travel scenarios.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 15, 2025 – If “weekend getaway” makes you think of traffic jams and packed terminals, ARIDGE is pitching something far more cinematic: three-dimensional mobility that can lift your travel plans off the ground. In a new update tied to the fast-growing “low-altitude economy” in China, the company highlighted two different flight systems—one aimed at personal short-range experiences, and another designed for longer, faster journeys with multiple passengers.

A868: A Long-Range Flying Car Built for Business-Style Travel
ARIDGE’s headline-grabber is the A868, described as a full tilt-rotor hybrid flying car tailored for multi-passenger, long-range travel. Unveiled during XPENG AI Day 2025, it uses a full tilt-rotor configuration powered by XPENG’s Kunpeng Super Extended-Range Architecture and a self-developed, aviation-grade hybrid-electric core.

The targets are ambitious and very “intercity” in spirit:

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 10, 2025 – A softer quarter on paper, stronger growth abroad in practice: Hello Group Inc., the company behind social apps like Momo and Tantan, has reported its unaudited financial results for the third quarter of 2025 – and the story behind the numbers says a lot about how online dating and social networking in Asia are evolving.

Slight Revenue Dip, Big Shift in Where the Money Comes From

Net revenues in Q3 2025 slipped just 0.9% year over year to RMB2,650.1 million (US$372.3 million), but that headline doesn’t tell the whole story. Inside the mix, overseas revenues jumped an impressive 69.0% to RMB534.8 million (US$75.1 million), showing how much Hello Group is leaning into global markets beyond mainland China.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 10, 2025 – In a world where city life feels permanently set to fast-forward, the LEPAS L8 Exquisite Space leans hard in the opposite direction, transforming the car interior into a calming emotional sanctuary where Elegant Life means breathing out, slowing down and genuinely enjoying the moment.

A Private Cinema on Wheels for Your “Me-Time”

The idea behind the LEPAS L8 Exquisite Space is simple and very 2025: your car shouldn’t just move you from A to B, it should move your mood too. With a few small rituals, the cabin becomes your own private cinema and cocoon. Recline the front seats fully backward, connect the projector ecosystem accessories and sync with the in-car entertainment system, and suddenly the outside world fades.
