This Saturday on Trending China: Chloe Feng and Brian Wong explore the Chinese mainland’s low-altitude economy.
Drones are common - but what about a drone big enough to ride in? Or a flying car that lifts off and flies without a pilot? Once sci-fi, this is moving closer to daily life.
The technology is eVTOL: electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft. Fully electric, they hover like helicopters and fly forward like planes. China sees the low-altitude economy - airspace below 1,000 metres - as a strategic priority alongside AI and quantum technology.
How will flying taxis change our lives? How soon for ordinary consumers? What challenges remain? Tune in to find out!

China’s solo-preneurship era has arrived. Local governments are offering free apartments, converted offices and other perks to lure “One Person Companies” (OPCs) — single-founder startups that use AI tools like vibe-coding agents and video generators to build products solo, sometimes even without venture funding or staff.
Can AI-powered solo ventures scale into lasting businesses? What opportunities are there? Chloe Feng and Brian Wong will be discussing this with Kevin Pereira, Managing Director at Blu Artificial Intelligence, and Lin Zhang, an associate professor at the University of New Hampshire.
