Imagine strolling through a lush lychee orchard in Guangzhou, your phone buzzing with real-time views of glistening red fruits—all thanks to 5G-powered livestreams! 🌳📱 Farmers in Zengcheng District, known as China's 'lychee heartland,' are turning tech-savvy to showcase their harvests globally. Despite a dip in production due to unpredictable weather this year, their digital hustle is bridging gaps between orchard and table.
During the annual Lychee Festival, growers like those at Donglin Orchard invited viewers—via ultra-smooth 5G broadcasts—to explore rare lychee varieties and even 'pick' fruits virtually. 🎥🍒 'It’s like TikTok meets farmers’ markets,' laughed one farmer, holding up a cluster of sweet, spiky lychees. CGTN’s Liu Jiaxin joined the livestream, highlighting how these digital tools help small-scale farmers compete in global markets. 💡
Rain or shine, innovation is keeping the lychee economy juicy. Who knew fruit sales could be this lit? 🔥
