\h\h2004 UNTIL TODAY.
159
00:12:22,308 --> 00:12:24,844
{\an7}IT HAS BEEN AN EXCITING JOURNEY.
160
00:12:28,348 --> 00:12:32,419
{\an7}IT PROVIDES AN ALTERNATIVE
\hTO ROAD AND AIR TRAVEL.
161
00:12:32,452 --> 00:12:34,220
{\an7}THROUGH THIS DEVELOPMENT,
\hOUR WORK HAS TRANSFORMED
162
00:12:34,254 --> 00:12:36,089
{\an7}HOW WE CHINESE COMMUTE.
163
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,036
{\an7}\hNarrator: THE TRAIN HAS
CUT THE WANGS’ ANNUAL TRIP
164
00:12:50,069 --> 00:12:53,272
{\an7}FROM 36 HOURS TO 15.
165
00:13:02,348 --> 00:13:04,217
{\an7}Mr. Wang: THIS JOURNEY MAY
\h\h\h\h\hHAVE BEEN LONG,
166
00:13:04,250 --> 00:13:06,185
{\an7}BUT IT FEELS SHORT IN MY HEART.
167
00:13:06,219 --> 00:13:08,154
{\an7}SEEING THE SNOW OUTSIDE
REMINDS ME OF THE TIMES
168
00:13:08,187 --> 00:13:11,190
{\an7}I SPENT WITH MY PARENTS
\hCELEBRATING NEW YEAR.
169
00:13:11,224 --> 00:13:13,493
{\an7}IT IS A VERY HAPPY FEELING.

00:13:31,010 --> 00:13:33,212
{\an7}AND EVEN HIS AUNT
REALLY MISS THEM.
173
00:13:33,246 --> 00:13:35,348
{\an7}\h\hTHEY HAVE BEEN
GONE FOR TOO LONG.

{\an7}\h\hNOW THAT THEY ARE

175
00:13:36,849 --> 00:13:40,920

{\an7}\hTHEY’LL GO OFF ACROSS
CHINA THIS FESTIVE WEEK
179
00:13:57,737 --> 00:14:01,140
{\an7}\hAS MILLIONS OF OTHER
FAMILIES ARRIVE HOME.
180
00:14:04,844 --> 00:14:07,680
{\an7}THE CHINESE RELISH
\hOLD TRADITIONS,
181
00:14:08,648 --> 00:14:11,584
{\an7}\hBUT THEY’RE ALSO
STARTING NEW ONES.
182
00:14:13,686 --> 00:14:17,290
{\an7}HERE IN CENTRAL CHINA, HUNDREDS
OF MILES FROM THE COAST
183
00:14:17,323 --> 00:14:21,394
{\an7}IS A MASSIVE COMPLEX THAT BRINGS
A TRIP TO THE BEACH INLAND.
184
00:14:22,528 --> 00:14:25,431
{\an7}♪
185
00:14:34,674 --> 00:14:38,511
{\an7}THIS IS KNOWN AS CHINA’S
\h\hDEAD SEA, A MANMADE
186
00:14:38,544 --> 00:14:42,048
{\an7}SALTWATER RESORT WITH
A CAPACITY OF 10,000.
187
00:14:44,450 --> 00:14:48,421
{\an7}RECREATIONAL AREAS LIKE THIS
ARE POPPING UP ACROSS CHINA
188
00:14:48,454 --> 00:14:51,090
{\an7}THANKS TO A GROWING
\h\h\hMIDDLE CLASS.
189
00:14:59,966 --> 00:15:03,169
{\an7}Ye Ming: WE’RE FRIENDS, AND WE
\h\h\h\hOFTEN TRAVEL TOGETHER.
190
00:15:03,202 --> 00:15:06,939
{\an7}\h\h\hShu Ping: OTHER FRIENDS
RECOMMENDED THIS PLACE TO US.
191
00:15:06,973 --> 00:15:08,741
{\an7}\hWE DID MORE RESEARCH ON
THE INTERNET AND FOUND OUT
192
00:15:08,775 --> 00:15:11,511
{\an7}THE WATER HERE IS GOOD
FOR OUR BODY AND SKIN.
193
00:15:11,544 --> 00:15:15,448
{\an7}\h\hWOMEN OUR AGE ARE VERY
CONCERNED ABOUT OUR SKIN.

REGION TO CREATE THE RESORT.
196
00:15:26,626 --> 00:15:30,730
{\an7}\h\h\hBECAUSE OF THE HIGH SALINE
CONTENT, SWIMMERS FREELY FLOAT,
197
00:15:31,964 --> 00:15:34,633
{\an7}JUST AS THEY DO ON THE DEAD SEA.
198
00:15:36,636 --> 00:15:40,740
{\an7}ALL THAT IS A BIG DRAW
\hFOR THE MIDDLE CLASS
199
00:15:40,773 --> 00:15:43,776
{\an7}WHICH HAS QUADRUPLED
\h\hHERE SINCE 2000,
200
00:15:43,810 --> 00:15:46,946
{\an7}AND TURNED CHINA INTO
\h\hA CONSUMER GIANT.
201
00:15:48,981 --> 00:15:52,084
{\an7}WITH MORE MONEY AND
\hMORE LEISURE TIME,
202
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,823
{\an7}\h\h\hPEOPLE HAVE THE
MEANS FOR RECREATION,
203
00:16:00,593 --> 00:16:07,166
{\an7}\h\hLIKE THIS GIANT WAVE POOL,
ITS NICKNAME IS DUMPLING SOUP.
204
00:16:08,901 --> 00:16:10,836
{\an7}Ye Ming: THAT WAS TOO EXCITING.
205
00:16:10,870 --> 00:16:15,074
{\an7}\h\hShu Ping: WE HAVEN’T DONE
ANYTHING LIKE THIS IN DECADES.
206
00:16:15,107 --> 00:16:19,411
{\an7}Ye Ming: IT’S LIKE GOING BACK TO
THE TIME WHEN I WAS IN MY 20’S.
207
00:16:19,445 --> 00:16:21,647
{\an7}THIS PLACE IS A PLAYGROUND.
208
00:16:23,850 --> 00:16:27,520
{\an7}Shu Ping: IT REALLY ALLOWS US TO
RELIVE OUR CHILDHOOD.
209
00:16:35,761 --> 00:16:37,463
{\an7}\hNarrator: THE GROWING
MIDDLE CLASS IS LOOKING
210
00:16:37,497 --> 00:16:40,500
{\an7}\h\hFOR THINGS TO DO
AND THINGS TO WATCH.
211
00:16:46,472 --> 00:16:50,609
{\an7}CHINA’S MOVIE MARKET IS NOW THE
SECOND-LARGEST IN THE WORLD.
212
00:16:53,045 --> 00:16:56,048
{\an7}\h\h\h\hAND HOMEGROWN
FILMMAKING IS BOOMING.
213
00:17:01,721 --> 00:17:03,489
{\an7}\h\h\h\hTHE INDUSTRY HAS
FUELED THE CONSTRUCTION
214
00:17:03,523 --> 00:17:07,594
{\an7}OF THIS ENTIRE AREA, CHINA’S
\h\h\hVERSION OF HOLLYWOOD.
215
00:17:11,564 --> 00:17:14,734
{\an7}\h\hOFFICIALLY, THIS IS
HENGIDAN WORLD STUDIOS,
216
00:17:14,767 --> 00:17:17,603
{\an7}\h\hBUT IT’S BETTER
KNOWN AS CHINAWOOD.
217
00:17:20,006 --> 00:17:23,910
{\an7}ITS SETS SPAN 2,500 ACRES
\h\hAND FEATURE EVERYTHING
218
00:17:23,943 --> 00:17:27,513
{\an7}\h\hFROM ANCIENT TEMPLES
TO MODERN CITY STREETS.
219
00:17:29,448 --> 00:17:34,353
{\an7}IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT IN
THE 90’S, THIS WAS FARMLAND.
220
00:17:34,387 --> 00:17:37,790
{\an7}\hTODAY, IT’S THE BIGGEST
FILM STUDIO IN THE WORLD,
221
00:17:37,823 --> 00:17:41,527
{\an7}\hTHE SIZE OF PARAMOUNT
AND UNIVERSAL COMBINED.
222
00:17:44,597 --> 00:17:48,901
{\an7}AND THE ENTIRE THING WAS
\hTHE VISION OF A FARMER
223
00:17:48,935 --> 00:17:52,972
{\an7}WHO SLOWLY BEGAN CONVERTING
\hTHE LAND INTO MOVIE SETS.
224
00:17:56,208 --> 00:17:59,478
{\an7}\h\hGRADUALLY, CREWS STARTED
COMING AND THE LOCAL ECONOMY
225
00:17:59,512 --> 00:18:01,314
{\an7}BEGAN TO BOOM.
226
00:18:01,347 --> 00:18:04,450
{\an7}\h\h\h\h\hMANY ARRIVE IN
CHINAWOOD WITH A DREAM.
227
00:18:04,483 --> 00:18:07,353
{\an7}THIS DIRECTOR LEFT HIS
LIFE AS A KUNG-FU MONK
228
00:18:07,386 --> 00:18:10,522
{\an7}\hTO PURSUE HIS TRUE
PASSION, FILMMAKING.
229
00:18:12,291 --> 00:18:13,926
{\an7}Wang Ying: I FIRST STARTED IN
\h\h\h\h\hMARTIAL ARTS SCHOOL
230
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,763
{\an7}\hBEFORE ENLISTING
AT SHAOLIN TEMPLE.
231
00:18:18,431 --> 00:18:20,466
{\an7}I WAS TOO YOUNG.
232
00:18:20,499 --> 00:18:23,435
{\an7}\h\hI WENT BECAUSE MY
FAMILY TOLD ME TO GO.
233
00:18:23,469 --> 00:18:25,938
{\an7}IT WAS TOUGH AND I
WANTED TO GO HOME,
234
00:18:25,972 --> 00:18:27,674
{\an7}BUT AFTER TRAINING FOR
A FEW YEARS AND GOING
235
00:18:27,707 --> 00:18:30,276
{\an7}FOR COMPETITIONS, I DEVELOPED
\h\h\h\hA PASSION THAT ENDURES
236
00:18:30,309 --> 00:18:31,210
{\an7}UNTIL TODAY.
237
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,316
{\an7}Narrator: CHINAWOOD SETS
HAVE SERVED AS BACKDROPS
238
00:18:36,349 --> 00:18:39,986
{\an7}FOR MORE THAN A THOUSAND
\h\hMOVIES AND TV SHOWS.
239
00:18:40,886 --> 00:18:45,023
{\an7}\h\hTHE 2002 EPIC MARTIAL ARTS
MOVIE "HERO" WAS FILMED HERE,
240
00:18:45,891 --> 00:18:49,361
{\an7}ALONG WITH "CROUCHING
TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON."
241
00:18:51,130 --> 00:18:54,834
{\an7}THE FILMS REQUIRE COMPLEX
\h\h\hPROPS AND PLANNING.
242
00:19:00,039 --> 00:19:02,675
{\an7}Wang Ying: WE WILL FIRST FILM
\h\h\h\hTHE ACTOR’S CLOSEUPS,
243
00:19:02,708 --> 00:19:05,611
{\an7}BUT THE FIGHT SEQUENCES WILL
\h\hBE DONE BY OUR STUNTMEN.
244
00:19:05,645 --> 00:19:09,149
{\an7}OUR STUNTMEN WILL
WEAR THIS HARNESS,
245
00:19:09,181 --> 00:19:13,018
{\an7}AND THEY’LL BE HAULED
\h\h\hUP INTO THE AIR.
246
00:19:13,052 --> 00:19:15,755
{\an7}\h\h\h\hTHIS REQUIRES
PROFESSIONAL TRAINING,
247
00:19:15,788 --> 00:19:19,392
{\an7}LIKE HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR
\h\hPOSTURE AMONG OTHERS.
248
00:19:19,425 --> 00:19:21,961
{\an7}♪
249
00:19:30,469 --> 00:19:33,005
{\an7}THE CHALLENGE IS COORDINATION.
250
00:19:33,873 --> 00:19:36,109
{\an7}IF THE COORDINATION IS OFF,
251
00:19:37,209 --> 00:19:40,646
{\an7}OUR STUNTMAN MAY FALL
\hAND INJURE HIMSELF.
252
00:19:43,949 --> 00:19:48,120
{\an7}\h\hNarrator: AMAZINGLY, THE
SETS HERE ARE FREE TO CREWS.
253
00:19:48,954 --> 00:19:51,290
{\an7}\hCHINAWOOD MAKES MONEY
FROM HOTELS, RESTAURANTS
254
00:19:51,323 --> 00:19:55,828
{\an7}AND PRODUCTION VENUES ALONG
\h\hWITH 11 MILLION TOURISTS
255
00:19:55,861 --> 00:19:59,832
{\an7}\h\h\hWHO COME ANNUALLY TO
WATCH THE ARTISTS AT WORK.
256
00:19:59,865 --> 00:20:00,933
{\an7}Wang Ying: I WOULD LIKE TO
\h\h\h\h\hCREATE SOMETHING
257
00:20:00,966 --> 00:20:03,335
{\an7}EVEN MORE EXQUISITE SO THAT
\h\hWHEN AUDIENCES WATCH IT
258
00:20:03,369 --> 00:20:05,671
{\an7}THEY WILL FEEL THAT IT IS
\h\h\h\h\hVERY BEAUTIFUL.
259
00:20:05,705 --> 00:20:08,775
{\an7}I WANT TO CREATE THAT
\h\hFEELING FOR THEM.
260
00:20:08,808 --> 00:20:11,344
{\an7}\hNarrator: HOLLYWOOD STILL
DOMINATES THE MOVIE MARKET,
261
00:20:11,377 --> 00:20:13,946
{\an7}BUT CHINAWOOD IS GAINING GROUND.
262
00:20:15,047 --> 00:20:17,516
{\an7}THE QUALITY OF FILMS
\h\hKEEPS IMPROVING,
263
00:20:17,550 --> 00:20:19,318
{\an7}AND PEOPLE HAVE NOTICED.
264
00:20:19,351 --> 00:20:24,156
{\an7}13 NEW FILMS PREMIERE
IN THEATERS EVERYDAY.
265
00:20:27,326 --> 00:20:31,831
{\an7}CHINA’S CITIES ALONG WITH
\hITS ECONOMY ARE BOOMING.
266
00:20:31,864 --> 00:20:35,167
{\an7}\h\hTHE POPULATION NOW
STANDS AT 1.4 BILLION.
267
00:20:37,803 --> 00:20:40,072
{\an7}\hFOUR TIMES THAT OF
THE U.S. IN AN AREA
268
00:20:40,106 --> 00:20:42,976
{\an7}THAT’S ABOUT THE SAME SIZE.
269
00:20:43,008 --> 00:20:44,309
{\an7}\h\h\hBUT ALL THOSE
PEOPLE ARE STRAINING
270
00:20:44,343 --> 00:20:46,512
{\an7}THE NATION’S INFRASTRUCTURE,
271
00:20:46,545 --> 00:20:49,081
{\an7}ESPECIALLY ITS ELECTRICAL GRIDS.
272
00:20:54,286 --> 00:20:56,555
{\an7}\h\hIN SOUTHEAST CHINA,
THE NATION HAS LAUNCHED
273
00:20:56,589 --> 00:20:59,225
{\an7}\h\h\h\hAN AMBITIOUS
ENGINEERING PROJECT,
274
00:21:02,728 --> 00:21:07,132
{\an7}\h\hINSTALLING WHAT’S CALLED AN
ULTRA HIGH VOLTAGE CABLE NETWORK
275
00:21:07,166 --> 00:21:10,102
{\an7}OR UHV.
276
00:21:13,205 --> 00:21:16,742
{\an7}Xu Xiaoming: I HAVE BEEN WORKING
IN THIS FIELD FOR NINE YEARS.
277
00:21:16,776 --> 00:21:20,713
{\an7}\h\hIT CAN BE DANGEROUS DUE TO
THE HEIGHTS WE HAVE TO SCALE.
278
00:21:20,746 --> 00:21:25,150
{\an7}\h\h\h\hDURING RAINY DAYS, THE
CABLES CAN GET VERY SLIPPERY.
279
00:21:25,184 --> 00:21:27,887
{\an7}\hSTRONG WINDS CAN
ALSO BLOW US OFF.
280
00:21:29,288 --> 00:21:31,157
{\an7}Narrator: THE HIGH-TECH
NETWORK CAN EFFICIENTLY
281
00:21:31,190 --> 00:21:35,261
{\an7}\h\hTRANSMIT ELECTRICITY
OVER THOUSANDS OF MILES.
282
00:21:35,294 --> 00:21:38,731
{\an7}\hWITH THIS HIGH-WIRE
ACT, PRECISION IS KEY.
283
00:21:43,869 --> 00:21:45,938
{\an7}Xu Xiaoming: IF THIS SPACER
\hIS NOT INSTALLED PROPERLY
284
00:21:45,971 --> 00:21:49,308
{\an7}\hAND A TYPHOON HITS,
THE CABLES MAY COLLIDE
285
00:21:49,341 --> 00:21:51,677
{\an7}AND CUT EACH OTHER OFF,
CAUSING THE STEEL TOWERS
286
00:21:51,710 --> 00:21:52,611
{\an7}TO COLLAPSE.
287
00:21:54,046 --> 00:21:56,181
{\an7}\h\h\hTHIS IS BECAUSE THE
CABLES PROVIDE A TRACTION
288
00:21:56,215 --> 00:21:59,185
{\an7}\h\hTHAT KEEPS THE
TOWERS IN BALANCE.
289
00:21:59,218 --> 00:22:01,420
{\an7}IF THE CABLES SNAP, THE
TOWERS WILL NOT BE ABLE
290
00:22:01,453 --> 00:22:04,289
{\an7}\hTO WITHSTAND THE
RESULTING TENSION.
291
00:22:11,964 --> 00:22:13,299
{\an7}Narrator: BUT WITH BIG RISKS,
292
00:22:13,332 --> 00:22:15,901
{\an7}CHINA HOPES TO REAP BIG REWARDS.
293
00:22:17,870 --> 00:22:21,407
{\an7}\h\h\h\hTHE UHV WILL TRANSMIT
ELECTRICITY FIVE TIMES FASTER
294
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:22,841
{\an7}THAN THE OLD GRID.
295
00:22:25,211 --> 00:22:28,347
{\an7}\hAND IS FAR BETTER
FOR THE ENVIRONMENT.
296
00:22:30,282 --> 00:22:33,452
{\an7}\hTHEY’LL ALSO MOVE SURPLUS
ELECTRICITY FROM ONE REGION
297
00:22:33,485 --> 00:22:34,319
{\an7}TO ANOTHER.
298
00:22:39,625 --> 00:22:42,828
{\an7}OVERALL, THE IMPROVEMENTS
\h\h\hARE EXPECTED TO COST

462
00:37:01,386 --> 00:37:03,488
{\an7}ONE OF THE MOST STRIKING
\h\hEXAMPLES OF CHINA’S
463
00:37:03,521 --> 00:37:07,592
{\an7}EXPLOSIVE GROWTH IS THE CITY
OF SHENZHEN NEAR HONG KONG.

{\an7}WHICH HAVE CLOGGED THE CITY’S
ROADS AND POLLUTED ITS SKIES.
473
00:38:00,411 --> 00:38:03,214
{\an7}Wang Yan Man: CARS ARE THE MAIN
SOURCE OF POLLUTION IN SHENZHEN
474
00:38:03,248 --> 00:38:05,751
{\an7}AS THERE ARE VERY FEW FACTORIES.
475
00:38:05,784 --> 00:38:07,452
{\an7}IF THE CITY CAN SOLVE
\h\h\hTHE CAR PROBLEM,
476
00:38:07,485 --> 00:38:10,555
{\an7}\h\h\hIT CAN SOLVE THE
PROBLEM OF EMISSIONS.
477
00:38:12,524 --> 00:38:15,727
{\an7}\h\h\h\hNarrator: TO CURB THE
POLLUTION, THE CITY HAS BUILT
478
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:17,829
{\an7}A FLEET OF ELECTRIC BUSES.
479
00:38:24,903 --> 00:38:27,139
{\an7}THE TECHNOLOGY ISN’T NEW,
480
00:38:27,172 --> 00:38:30,008
{\an7}\hBUT THE SCALE OF
IMPLEMENTATION IS.

{\an7}Zhao Jingbo: I CAME
\h\h\hHERE IN 2006,

00:38:41,052 --> 00:38:43,154
{\an7}AND TRAFFIC WASN’T AS CONGESTED.
484
00:38:43,188 --> 00:38:45,490
{\an7}NOW, MAYBE BECAUSE OF
THE RAPID DEVELOPMENT,
485
00:38:45,523 --> 00:38:47,392
{\an7}EVERYONE WANTS TO BUY A CAR.
486
00:38:47,425 --> 00:38:49,594
{\an7}BUT TRAFFIC JAMS ARE AN
\hEVERYDAY FACT OF LIFE,
487
00:38:49,627 --> 00:38:52,864

{\an7}\hWE CAN MONITOR EVERY

{\an7}AS THEY LOOK TO THE FUTURE,
501
00:39:59,731 --> 00:40:04,536
{\an7}THE CHINESE PEOPLE ARE ALSO
SHIFTING THEIR GAZE SKYWARD.

503
00:40:13,144 --> 00:40:15,546
{\an7}NEAR BEIJING, THEY’VE
\hBUILT WHAT’S CALLED
504
00:40:15,580 --> 00:40:18,616
{\an7}THE "LARGE SKY AREA
\hMULTI-OBJECT FIBER
505
00:40:18,650 --> 00:40:25,290
{\an7}SPECTROSCOPIC TELESCOPE" -
\h\hALSO KNOWN AS LAMOST.
506
00:40:28,026 --> 00:40:31,196
{\an7}OVER FIVE YEARS, IT WILL

{\an7}BEYOND OUR OWN.
509
00:40:40,471 --> 00:40:43,140
{\an7}BUT THIS IS JUST ONE OF
THE TOOLS CHINA IS USING
510
00:40:43,174 --> 00:40:44,342
{\an7}TO STUDY SPACE.
511
00:40:48,746 --> 00:40:52,883
{\an7}ANOTHER EVEN BIGGER TELESCOPE
\hLIES A THOUSAND MILES AWAY.
512
00:40:54,852 --> 00:40:58,055
{\an7}\h\h\hWITH A DIAMETER OF
1,600 FEET, THIS WILL BE

00:40:58,089 --> 00:41:02,126
{\an7}\h\h\h\h\hTHE WORLD’S BIGGEST
TELESCOPE WHEN IT’S COMPLETE.
514
00:41:05,530 --> 00:41:07,465
{\an7}\h\h\h\hCHINESE SCIENTISTS

\hDYNASTY IN THE YEAR 1054,
518
00:41:24,082 --> 00:41:27,152
{\an7}CHINESE ASTRONOMERS DISCOVERED
\h\hA STAR THAT WENT SUPERNOVA
519
00:41:27,185 --> 00:41:29,287
{\an7}IN A FLASH OF WHITE LIGHT.
520
00:41:31,689 --> 00:41:34,792
{\an7}\h\h\h\h\hWHEN THIS TELESCOPE IS
COMPLETE, MAYBE OUR FIRST TARGET
521
00:41:34,826 --> 00:41:36,828
{\an7}IS TO LOOK AT THAT STAR AGAIN.
522
00:41:36,861 --> 00:41:39,130
{\an7}IT WILL BE A WAY OF CONNECTING
\h\h\h\h\hOUR FUTURE, PRESENT,
523
00:41:39,163 --> 00:41:40,464
{\an7}AND ANCIENT PAST.
524
00:41:49,307 --> 00:41:51,509
{\an7}\h\h\h\h\hNarrator: TO WORK
PROPERLY, THE TELESCOPE HAD
525
00:41:51,542 --> 00:41:54,378
{\an7}TO BE CONSTRUCTED
\hIN A REMOTE AREA
526
00:41:54,412 --> 00:41:58,483
{\an7}WITHOUT ELECTRONIC INTERFERENCE
OR NOISE POLLUTION.
527
00:42:00,284 --> 00:42:02,753
{\an7}ULTIMATELY, IT WILL
BE CAPABLE OF SEEING

00:42:11,362 --> 00:42:13,831
{\an7}A 500 METER WIDE WEB.
531
00:42:13,865 --> 00:42:18,336
{\an7}THIS WEB HAS OVER 6,000 JOINTS,
AND WEIGHS OVER 1,500 TONS.
532
00:42:18,369 --> 00:42:21,172
{\an7}\h\hIF A SINGLE JOINT ISN’T

533
00:42:21,205 --> 00:42:24,208
{\an7}\h\h\hWE WON’T BE ABLE TO
ACHIEVE THE SHAPE WE NEED.
534
00:42:24,242 --> 00:42:26,478
{\an7}THE BIGGEST RISK IS THAT
I HAVE OVER 100 WORKERS
535
00:42:26,511 --> 00:42:29,614
{\an7}AT A HEIGHT OF 200
\hFEET AND ABOVE.

{\an7}\hYOU MAY THINK TIGHTROPE

{\an7}BUT MY WORKERS ARE TREADING
\h\h\h\hTIGHTROPES EVERYDAY.
539
00:42:38,689 --> 00:42:41,058
{\an7}\h\h\hWE ENGINEERS DON’T LIKE TO

540
00:42:41,092 --> 00:42:43,394
{\an7}AS THEY ARE VERY DIFFICULT.
541
00:42:43,428 --> 00:42:45,463
{\an7}BUT WHEN FACED WITH NATURAL
\h\hCONDITIONS THAT FORCE US
542
00:42:45,496 --> 00:42:49,033
{\an7}\h\hTO BUILD SOMETHING THIS
BIG, WE’RE WILLING TO DO IT.
543
00:42:49,067 --> 00:42:51,570
{\an7}BECAUSE WE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING
\h\h\hTO CHALLENGE OURSELVES.
544
00:42:51,602 --> 00:42:53,270
{\an7}\hWE WANT TO FIND OUT
WHETHER WE CAN DO IT,
545
00:42:53,304 --> 00:42:55,339
{\an7}AND HOW WELL WE CAN DO IT.
546
00:43:04,348 --> 00:43:07,952
{\an7}\h\hNarrator: CHINA IS A

547

{\an7}OTHER TIMES WITH INNOVATION.

00:43:28,005 --> 00:43:32,142
{\an7}THIS IS A COUNTRY CHALLENGING
\h\h\h\h\hITSELF TO BE BIGGER,

00:43:34,479 --> 00:43:39,050
{\an7}BETTER, AND BOLDER.
