Reference News Network, December 12 report (text by Cao Yiming) On December 2, a Mongolian network media delegation flew from Ulaanbaatar, where the temperature was minus 30 degrees Celsius, to Guangzhou, known as the "Flower City" with a temperature of more than 20 degrees Celsius, starting a cross-north-south tour of China. That day, the joint interview activity titled "Win-Win Cooperation · E-Path Together: Media Tour in Guangdong and Inner Mongolia" was launched in Guangzhou. Ten mainstream Mongolian websites, including News.mn, Mass.mn, and Zuv.mn, along with over 30 Chinese media journalists, conducted a 8-day research visit.

During the visit, the press group started in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, then flew to Hohhot and Erlianhot, covering areas such as technological innovation, artificial intelligence (AI), biopharmaceuticals, Sino-Mongolian medicine, energy generation, dairy industry, and port construction for interviews and reports, recording the impressive chapters of China's high-level opening-up and high-quality development. Journalists "shot, filmed, and posted on the go," instantly sharing their fresh experiences on online platforms. When the press group's bus slowly left the visited institutions and enterprises, the journalists had already shared the "fresh" news with the Mongolian people in real time.

"In terms of technological innovation, there are so many areas that Mongolia can learn from. I will introduce China's technology to the public through the latest reports, helping to bring China's technology into Mongolia. I hope China and Mongolia can share opportunities and develop together." said Tserendev, a journalist from News.mn, to the reporter.

Touching the Pulse of China's Scientific and Technological Innovation

Guangdong Province is a hub for scientific and technological giants in China, and the press group experienced the shock of "black tech" here.

The ancient port of Huangpu, which once witnessed the development of the Maritime Silk Road, now houses the Panyu Artificial Intelligence and Digital Economy Pilot Zone. The journalists entered the Panyu Artificial Intelligence and Digital Economy Experience Promotion and Empowerment Center, where the MOSS intelligent guide robot served as a "tour guide" on the large screen, "telling stories" about the development achievements of the Panyu digital ecosystem. According to the introduction, this place has gathered about 200 large model application projects, with more than 7,000 general AI companies setting up shop. The journalists experienced the application of digital technologies such as AI large models, big data, and cloud computing in smart cities. Mongolian journalists also enthusiastically posed for photos, experiencing AI one-click clothing changes, and downloaded photos of themselves as space warriors and magicians as souvenirs.

Tserendev said: "China's AI-based solutions lead globally. China has applied these solutions in national economic development, urban planning, and environmental upgrades, which impressed me deeply."

At Guangzhou Yun Die Technology Co., Ltd., Naren Chazharile, a journalist from Zangi.mn, was deeply attracted by the AI smart paper and pen. "I write, and the screen identifies it at the same time. It's very practical," she said excitedly. When she learned that a set of paper and pen could be used for blackboard teaching, classroom interaction, smart exams, smart homework, and smart grading, and the price was only more than 100 yuan RMB, Mongolian journalists all expressed "great interest."

What also "won over" the journalists were the robots from Zhongqing Technology and UB Tech. The vigorous vitality and innovative power of Shenzhen's robotics industry made the journalists praise continuously.

After the Zhongqing robot performed high-difficulty moves such as dynamic dance and consecutive leg kicks, many Mongolian journalists took videos while shouting "do it again." They were also very interested in the robot's price. According to Xu Haodong, the sales director of Zhongqing Robotics for the Greater China region, the T800 humanoid robot seen on site is still in the prototype debugging stage. The company's main product, the PM01 humanoid robot, has begun mass production and delivery. As a basic model for demonstration performances, its price has been reduced to below 100,000 yuan.

During the visit of the Mongolian and Chinese journalists to UB Tech, UB Tech played a video showing the mass production and delivery of hundreds of industrial humanoid robots Walker S2. This video became a hot topic in international media recently, and the sci-fi scene in the short film was questioned by American colleagues for being fake, claiming it was "CG-made." UB Tech emphasized that the video was completely shot on location. Humanoid robots demonstrated on-site actions such as self-charging and simulating factory material handling.

Chao Luomen, a journalist from Ivoice.mn, said: "I want to help introduce Chinese advanced technology to Mongolia. The media in Mongolia are also learning to apply AI technology, and we have virtual anchors. Learning Chinese technology can help us improve our communication efficiency."

Experience Diverse Intelligent Travel

Guangzhou is striving to become a "sample" of the low-altitude economy. It has a complete industrial chain, and local governments are committed to promoting the low-altitude economy to enter various industries rapidly.

Entering the flying car exhibition hall of Xpeng Huatian, the journalists were genuinely moved by the dazzling range of flying cars.

According to Liu Yanlin, a staff member of Xpeng Huatian, a month ago, the production factory of Huatian flying cars successfully produced the first modular flying car "Land Carrier" and completed the trial production. "This flying vehicle realizes the automatic separation and combination of land and flight bodies."

In the exhibition hall, Mongolian journalists rushed to take pictures of the "Land Carrier" and became "check-in tourists," getting into the flying car cabin to take photos. When they learned that the "Land Carrier" would achieve mass production and delivery by 2026, with one flying car being produced every 30 minutes after full capacity, Mongolian journalists kept saying this news would definitely have traffic.

At BYD's headquarters in Shenzhen, the Yangwang U9 welcomed the press group with an energetic "car dance." The vehicle not only rotated 360 degrees in place but also performed a shaking dance and even several jumps in place.

Qilemuun, a member of the leadership committee of the Mongolian Journalists' Association, took a test drive. She said: "This is my first time driving an electric vehicle. The performance of this car is particularly good. I just experienced the car dancing, shaking, and jumping, which is very technologically advanced."

Naren Chazharile showed her Chinese colleagues the Facebook account of Zangi.mn website. She had just posted an introduction about BYD's "Yun Gui" technology. She wrote that besides focusing on the electric vehicle industry, BYD has also entered the urban transportation field, actively building an integrated smart transportation scenario of subways (rail transit), buses, energy, and control systems.

Expectation for Deepening Medical Cooperation

Mongolian journalists paid great attention to livelihood topics such as Sino-Mongolian medical cooperation. In the Guangdong-Guangzhou-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Life Health Industry Innovation Zone, the journalists learned that the biopharmaceutical industry here has generated a cluster effect, achieving efficient integration of "research, education, medical care, and industry." So far, the innovation zone has built 16 special industrial parks and established multiple industrial service platforms such as the Guangzhou Innovation Drug Clinical Trial Service Center and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Preclinical Animal Experiment Service Center.

During the interview process, a 5G intelligent ophthalmic mobile clinic at the Guangzhou Yidong Health Examination Center caught the attention of the journalists. This mobile clinic brought the ophthalmic clinic "on board," with complete equipment for common ophthalmic examinations such as refraction, intraocular pressure measurement, and fundus color photography. It allows multiple patients to undergo a "one-stop" ophthalmic screening simultaneously and provides smart medical services through the 5G medical independent core network.

Chao Luomen said: "This mobile health examination vehicle combines innovative technology with modern medical methods. People don't need to go to the hospital to get initial medical services, greatly increasing their chances of receiving treatment. They may regain health with the least time and cost."

In the International Mongolian Medicine Hospital of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the journalists witnessed the achievements of Sino-Mongolian medical cooperation.

As a modern third-class A ethnic medical hospital specializing in Mongolian medicine, the International Mongolian Medicine Hospital has adopted a large number of Mongolian medical treatment techniques. By the end of 2025, more than 30,000 Mongolian citizens have come for treatment here.

Doctor Han Tielong pulled out a piece of paper and introduced to the journalists: "I have counted that by the end of 2025, the number of discharged patients in our department is 928, among whom 109 are Mongolian patients, accounting for 11.7%. In 2024, this proportion was 6.8%, maintaining a year-on-year growth."

Mongolian patient Enkhbolor received careful treatment at the International Mongolian Medicine Hospital. He told the journalists that after undergoing fracture surgery in Mongolia, he developed an infection and underwent five more surgeries without improvement until he came to China for treatment, where the infection was finally controlled.

Experience the Effectiveness of Industrial Cooperation

In the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the journalists witnessed more vivid practices of Sino-Mongolian practical cooperation. During the interview at the Tumote 500 kV Substation of Inner Mongolia Electric Power Group, Yang Zhe, a senior staff member of Inner Mongolia Guohe Power Company, was well-versed in the situation of Sino-Mongolian power cooperation. He said: "As a wholly-owned subsidiary of Inner Mongolia Electric Power Group, Inner Mongolia Guohe Power Company provides power services to Mongolia through nine transmission lines at five Sino-Mongolian border ports. By the end of October 2025, the cumulative power supply to Mongolia reached 16.3 billion kilowatt-hours."

When Mongolian journalists asked about the cooperation situation with Mongolia, Yang Zhe smiled and said: "Mongolia is a good client, never拖欠 electricity bills. Mongolia is also a resource-rich country, and in the long run, the prospects for Sino-Mongolian power cooperation are vast. In the future, China may also become a customer and purchase power from Mongolia."

At the Mengniu headquarters, the press group learned about the entire process of modern dairy production. When they saw cows entering the milking carousel like clocking in for work, the journalists were amazed. Mongolian journalists quickly took videos and published them. Within a few hours, a related video by Honggerzhuola, a journalist from Zarig.mn, had received 200,000 views. She told the reporter that Mongolia has a population of 3 million, and this video was a real "hit."

Gao Zhijie, the head of the ice cream business division of Mengniu Group's direct sales area in Hohhot, introduced: "The logistics cost between China and Mongolia is relatively low, and the supply chain response speed is fast, so the cooperation prospects are broad. Our products, especially large-packaged ice cream, are very popular in Mongolia."

In Erlianhot, the press group entered the Sino-Mongolian Erlianhot-Zhamenuud Economic Cooperation Zone, the Erlianhot Haoke Fruit and Grain Import-Export Park, and the Mengkelong Supermarket, interviewing the situation of Sino-Mongolian cross-border economic cooperation and agricultural product import-export trade, truly feeling the strong momentum of development as an important gateway for China's northern opening-up.

It is reported that Erlianhot is the largest land port for China's openness to Mongolia, becoming an international comprehensive transportation hub integrating road, rail, and air. More than 70% of daily necessities in Sino-Mongolian trade are transported to Mongolia via land through this port each year.

Enjoy "Chinese travel" and "Chinese shopping"

During the busy schedule, Mongolian journalists did not miss the chance to buy things. They recorded the representative projects of intangible cultural heritage such as Guangcai, Guangxiu, enamel, bone carving, and醒狮 in Guangzhou Yongqingfang, while purchasing souvenirs for family and friends.

At the Mengniu company headquarters, they were attracted by cultural and creative products and various dairy products. When they boarded the bus, many people wore soft cow headwear they had just bought.

In recent years, an increasing number of Mongolian tourists have traveled to China for sightseeing. Data shows that by November this year, the total number of inbound and outbound personnel at the Erlianhot port reached 2.59 million, an increase of 9.2% compared to the same period last year.

Zhang Xiuna, the store manager of Mengkelong Supermarket in Erlianhot, said that since this year, some Mongolian customers have regularly live-streamed in the supermarket, "the last two live-streams achieved a sales volume of 45,000 RMB. We hope to introduce more Chinese goods to Mongolia through this way."

This joint interview activity was jointly organized by the Information Office of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Regional Government and the Mongolian Journalists' Association. Through the 8-day joint interview, the journalists witnessed the hard power and innovative vitality of Guangdong Province as an innovation hub, and also saw the firm determination and practical results of Inner Mongolia in building a bridgehead for opening to the north. They also felt that China and Mongolia are steadily advancing the "hard connectivity" and "soft connectivity," while also intensifying the "heart connectivity" between the people.

Seynbayil, a consultant of the Mongolian Journalists' Association, said: "Through this joint interview, I saw the pace of China's high-quality development, learned many areas worth learning from Mongolia, and felt that Sino-Mongolian cooperation and exchanges are widely carried out in various fields. This visit will certainly further enhance the friendship between the people of the two countries."
