Read on for a sneak peek of this week's 'China 5' newsletter, bringing you the 5 big things you need to know about #China each Friday from our experts at the Center for China Analysis ⬇ 1️⃣ On August 27–28, PRC foreign minister Wang Yi hosted U.S. national security advisor Jake Sullivan in Beijing. The two sides agreed to initiate a call between the heads of state of both countries “in the coming weeks” and a video call at the military-theater-command level “at an appropriate time” — Lyle Morris 2️⃣ "Black Myth: Wukong", an action role-playing game from China’s Game Science development studio, released on August 20 and quickly gained global attention. Its success hints at a potential shift in Beijing’s traditionally cautious stance on gaming and underscores the role of high-quality game production in advancing critical technological fields like artificial intelligence and graphics — Lizzi C. Lee, Fellow on Chinese Economy 3️⃣ Deep in the Kubuqi Desert, work continues on the “Great Photovoltaic Wall,” an ambitious solar energy project covering 30 square km. This initiative not only represents a significant leap in solar energy capacity but also offers solutions for environmental management in arid regions — Taylah Bland 4️⃣ IBM abruptly shut down its research and development operations in China, citing increasing competition and declining infrastructure business in the country. It is the latest multinational to downsize or relocate staff to other countries at a time of heightened tensions between the U.S. and China over technology issues — G.A. Donovan, Fellow on Chinese Political Economy and Society 5️⃣ The Party Central Committee released intraparty regulations, “Several Provisions on Rectifying Formalism and Reducing Burdens at the Grassroots Level,” to address bureaucratic issues.The new regulation is expected to reduce the number and length of meetings and report-writing tasks of grassroots-level Party leaders — Lobsang Tsering, Senior Research Associate 🇨🇳 For the full scoop and to never miss an update, subscribe to China 5 through this link: https://lnkd.in/eteSxi32
