🌐 \"A country's prosperity starts with making its people prosperous.\" This age-old Chinese philosophy, rooted in governance traditions, is driving China’s modern-day push for common prosperity – and it’s buzzing to life in an unexpected place: Miyun’s beekeeping villages. 🍯
Just north of Beijing, Miyun’s 300-year-old honey industry is blending tradition with cutting-edge tech. Think drones monitoring hives, e-commerce platforms boosting sales, and sustainable practices attracting global investors. CGTN’s Liu Xin and economist Majid Ghorbani recently explored how these upgrades are sweetening livelihoods for local beekeepers.
💡 Why it matters: Common prosperity isn’t just about wealth redistribution—it’s a \"Marvel team-up\" of ancient values and innovation. As Ghorbani notes, \"When residents thrive, markets expand organically.\" Miyun’s success story shows how grassroots industries can become engines for equitable growth, appealing to young entrepreneurs and eco-conscious travelers alike.
From honey-coated economic strategies to digitalizing rural traditions, China’s approach offers lessons in balancing heritage with hyper-modernity. After all, who knew philosophy could taste this sweet? 🐝✨
