If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles.
Two cohorts. Two unforgettable weeks. 💙 We explored robots, AI, autonomous driving, smart factories, and so much more. But the greatest part of Tech China Trek wasn't the technology. It was the people we shared it with. The trip ends here. The story is just beginning.
We are a remote team operating across multiple time zones. Interestingly, today’s kick-off lunch was the very first time the four of us have met in person!
One day to go. After weeks of route checks, site visits, planning, calls, messages, and countless tiny logistics puzzles, our first Tech China Trek cohort is almost here. Today: team kick-off lunch. Tomorrow: the trek begins. :-) #ChinaTech #STEM
In the field of autonomous delivery and self-driving logistics, Neolix is the global leader. Whether in China or anywhere else in the world, they are number one in terms of commercial scale.
Sneak peek #6 from Beijing 👀 Wanna see a global leader in L4 autonomous delivery RoboVans? Autonomous driving isn’t just about robotaxis! Our July cohort will visit Neolix, where AI moves real goods through real cities. Parcels. Cold chain. Retail. Urban logistics #ChinaTech
Haha, that's me boxing, and the person jumping is the company's founder and CEO!
Sneak peek #5 from our July route check👀 Wanna try a “Bullet Time” shot like in The Matrix? Our students will visit a China-based AR/VR and film post-production studio, using multi-camera synchronized shooting + real-time processing to create their own 3D action video. #ARVR
Where can you actually ride in a true driverless car today? Despite what AI might tell you about global testing, the reality is: the U.S. and China are the only places where tourists can currently book a fully autonomous ride on real roads.
Sneak peek #4 from Beijing 👀 One highlight of our July Tech China Trek route: @BaiduApollo Go. At meaningful public robotaxi scale, the U.S. and China are the two markets to watch. For students, this is applied AI on real roads — not a demo, but a city system. #AI #ChinaTech
Trust me, wearing these makes hiking so much easier and really saves your energy, especially when you're going downhill. 😁
Sneak peek #3 from Beijing 👀 Our co-founder @FreemanDing climbed the Great Wall today. But not entirely on his own! This time, he had a little help from tech. What kind of tech makes climbing the Great Wall feel different? We’ll reveal it in July :-) #ChinaTech #STEM
This model is famous in China because it was featured on this year's Spring Festival Gala.
Sneak peek #2 from our Beijing route check 👀 @FreemanDing also met Bumi, the small @TheRealNoetix robot featured at China's 2026 Spring Festival Gala. With multiple joint degrees of freedom across its limbs and waist, Bumi can move in expressive ways. #Robotics #AI
Her facial expressions and lip-syncing are incredibly lifelike. When you are up close, watching her and talking to her, it actually triggers a bit of an uncanny valley effect.
Sneak peek #1 from our July route check 👀 Our co-founder Freeman visited @TheRealNoetix in Beijing today and met Xiaoyue: a lifelike robotic head with realistic facial expressions, lip-sync, and fluent Chi/Eng conversation. A glimpse of applied AI, up close. #Robotics #AI
Three testimonials from our first cohort!
Testimonials from our first cohort (SOLD OUT)! 🚀 These are real words from real people in real places. No fluff, no embellishment, and absolutely zero AI-generated noise. 💯 Pure. Authentic. Proven. 🔥
Together with co-founder Rui Ma @ruima , I’m launching Tech China Trek, an immersive program exploring China tech innovations for global teens.
🚀 July Beijing tech trek for teens SOLD OUT. ❌ So we opened Cohort 2: July 19–26. → 🚕 Driverless robotaxis → 🤖 Humanoid robot programming → 🔬 AI lab tours → 🏭 Smart factories → 🧱 The Great Wall + 🦾 exoskeletons Ages 10–18 + parent. 👨👩👦 Early bird ends April 25. ⏳
@NanDuan Perhaps “pretty much everyone” is not accurate as the official data is 14+ million…
