A five-episode documentary series, Better China, Better Life, each episode of which focuses on China's technological applications, the coordinated development between its eastern and western regions, environmental protection, the development of foreign trade and rural vitalization, has been airing on video-sharing platform Mango TV since Monday.

The episodes, which are around seven minutes in length, spotlight the development of different industries in Guangdong, Shandong, Zhejiang and Heilongjiang provinces as well as the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, covering the country from east to west and south to north.

In the first episode, the documentary explains the necessity of the country's west-to-east power transmission project using animated presentations of the national energy distribution map and electricity consumption chart.

Long-distance power transmission poses a technological challenge. The documentary illustrates how technicians from the China Southern Power Grid were able to develop innovative, ultrahigh voltage direct current transmission solutions. This offers advantages such as high capacity long-distance transmission with low loss, not only ensuring stable transmission but also promoting the cross-industry integration of energy, bringing greater convenience to daily life.

In another episode, the series takes a look at the famed wholesale hub of Yiwu in Zhejiang province through the perspective of foreigners, showcasing the open and inclusive atmosphere that attracts people from all over the world to live and work there. Yiwu has become an important gateway for China and the world to exchange ideas and collaborate on mutual development.
