Jiangxi Province in easy China is amplifying application scenarios to catalyze low-altitude economy while fostering new pace-setters in pursuing high-quality development by forging new quality productive forces.

Getting on a propeller airplane at Nanhu Airport in Jiangxi's Gongqingcheng City and overlooking the stunning Poyang Lake, the country's largest freshwater lake, is definitely one of the most impressive ways to feel the charm of low-altitude economy in the soon-to-be "city of sky".

Jiangxi is embracing the low-altitude economy with an open and inclusive attitude. In addition to air tour, pilot license training, aerial photography and aerial survey, power line patrol, drone performance and UAV short-distance transport are diversified application scenarios of low-altitude economy in different fields.

As a representative of new quality productive forces, low-altitude economy has become an important direction to foster new drivers.

"The low-altitude economy is a kind of new quality productive forces and an emerging direction of development in Jiangxi Province. I think it will undoubtedly play a significant role in promoting economic development of Jiangxi. As for me, and my friends, we are paying more attention to the low-altitude economy, the low-altitude market," said Feng Lei, a flight cadet.

Gongqingcheng, a young city, has drawn a blueprint for building itself into a "city of sky" with resources and efforts tilted toward the low-altitude economic industries, aiming to realize a industrial scale of 10 billion yuan, or 1.4 billion U.S. dollars, by 2026.

So far, the city has built Jiangxi's first low-altitude economic industrial park with high standards, completed the province's first market-oriented and the first A1-class runway general airport around Poyang Lake, accelerating the formation of industrial cluster effects and innovative ecosystems for low-altitude economy.

"Jiangxi is now vigorously constructing general aviation aerodrome. In the future, when the goal of county-to-county air connectivity is achieved, the airplane is not just a tool for entertainment, but a tool for transportation. In the future, when one wants to go back home, they don't need to drive and get stuck in traffic jams. We can achieve point-to-point traffic in the sky. This is the low-altitude economy that lies everywhere around everyone," said Lu Lingyue, chairman of Jiangxi Aero Future General Aviation Company.

The China Import and Export Fair, or Canton Fair, offers a platform for the world to share in China's opportunities, said a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman in Beijing on Monday.

Spokesman Lin Jian made the comments at a press briefing when responding to a media query about the just-concluded first phase of the 136th Canton Fair, which took place from Oct 15 to Oct 19 in Guangzhou, capital of south China's Guangdong Province.

"The first phase of this year's Canton Fair on-site exhibition focuses on advanced manufacturing and has over 11,000 booths for 'little giant' enterprises that use special and sophisticated technologies to produce novel and unique products or those who have been awarded individual manufacturing champion or named national high-tech enterprise, up by 35.5 percent compared with the last edition," Lin said.

Products using cutting-edge and new technologies made in China were showcased at the event and attracted many foreign buyers, he introduced.

"There will be another two phases of Canton Fair exhibition with a total floor area of 1.55 million square meters. About 125,000 pre-registered overseas buyers from 203 countries and regions and 223 out of the top 250 global retailers have confirmed to be part of the event," said Lin.

"The Canton Fair epitomizes China's continued opening up and offers a platform for the world to share in China's opportunities. There are new highlights at every Canton Fair. This not only proves the dynamism and resilience of China's economy, but also demonstrates China's confidence and determination in advancing Chinese modernization," he said. Launched in 1957, the Canton Fair is the country's oldest and largest trade fair. Held every spring and autumn in Guangzhou, it is seen as a significant barometer of China's foreign trade.
