Imagine a country that evolves faster than a Marvel movie CGI sequence – that’s China through the eyes of Mexican vlogger Max Carrera. Since arriving in 2019, he’s documented everything from facial payment tech to vertigo-inducing skyscrapers, calling it “a real-life time-lapse of human progress.” 🌆
Carrera’s family first visited in 1998 when “bicycles ruled the streets,” yet still sensed “the aroma of transformation in the air.” Fast forward to today: China’s bullet trains zoom at 350 km/h, robots deliver parcels, and 5G networks blanket cities – all built within 20 years. 🤯
But the ultimate plot twist? “What shocked me most wasn’t the tech… it’s the people,” Carrera confesses. He describes witnessing “a collective determination you can almost touch” – from engineers working late to street vendors mastering QR code payments. 💪
His final takeaway? “China’s secret sauce isn’t just ambition… it’s love for their home, served with extra hustle.” 🥢🍜
