A great report on the status of this world's biggest new city
Thank you Lee for bringing us looking around with different angle of China.
Actually this project seems quite similar to ones I've heard about when I was in China. Once when I was in China I got a chance to talk to some local people living in a city who told me that they were relocated from rural areas to the newly built city by the government. The government also provides these local people with incentives and benefits for relocating so the whole process is very different from picking up people and forcing them to relocate somewhere else. Which is what most westerners believe is the case. Even during the building of the three Gorges dam westerners assume that the government forced people out of their homes while the reality is that the government provided these people with a lot more benefit and compensation for relocating which included property and land in developed areas. Int he past the Chinese government worked on relocating people from rural areas to larger cities and now they are doing the opposite. I think this will become a new mega city, can't wait to visit the place. It's fascinating, the way the Chinese government is able to make these mega projects work is nothing more than a vague and unattainable imagination for most countries around the world. And another fascinating part is that most people don't even know about these mega projects taking place. It reminds me of the what Deng Xiaoping once said "observe calmly, secure our position; cope with affairs calmly; hide our capacities and bide our time and maintain a low profile"

Impressive ... looking forward to visit this well-planned city when it's completed
This is nice to see you both again.
I’m quite envious of them of being able to witness a project of such magnitude. Thanks for the informative video.
Thankyou your guys bring us the news of China, even though I am Chinese but I born in Hong Kong, thanks again.
you were born in hong kong but hong kong is part of china
Hong Kong was always part of China. It's just that British invaded it for a while
I am very envious of the aborigines. Now they have the government's compensation for demolition and the best potential houses, and this place will be very prosperous in the future. I am really envious. I hope that one day the place where I live can also become the lucky winner.
Mega city, obviously!
Just imagine building a largest city in the world. Super impressive and when they do they do it super fast and deliver
This is not only a new city, he is more like a future city, he will be intelligent in the future, a new generation of city based on AI. Xiongan is verifying

I heard about this project but it's awe inspiring to see the massive scale of construction up close. Nice drone shots. So glad you guys have a chance to visit the site.
Thanks Lee and Matt for showing new city Xiong An in the making. Jia yoe China 💪💪💪

Good to see that Lee is obviously doing well. I wish you good health. May the force be with you.
Another great video, can you immagine building an entire new 25 million people city. It will be
interesting to follow this green development. Thanks guys !!!
I saw a video where they show that underground there is another city of tunnels, roads, all the utilities, all deliveries, will circulate there. That's another advantage of building a city from scratch.
Yeah, this city was planned to be a model city for the future, they invited environmental construction specialists/designers from all over the world to get involved, this is like a playground for them, lol
Not only the infrastructures, China will use latest technologies. The city will be a digital city. Some people said that China will use DC power system instead of AC system we are using
Good to see you put on video for our viewing, is means that to me you are still alive. Lol
Will pray for your speedy recover, pls take good care,
I really like your vids,we learning so much about China and their cities,attractions and innovations Thank a lot!
I really enjoy how excited Matt and Lee are when talking about this. They're completely mindblown!
The world needs Chinese building technology for all families around the world in quick time. No people in the world should be homeless ever.
Stop. Government promises only dreams to gullible buyers for homes. As soon as people buy houses, their dreams soon turn to nightmares. Their new homes are *TOFU DREG CONSTRUCTIONS.*
@Sheriff Lobo Why do I keep seeing you post these stupid comments. You need to get a life or a hobby. Sad person you seem to be...
The point is that not only does the government give the locals subsidies for land acquisition, but the real estate developers also compensate them with several flats, which is enviable. Ordinary Chinese people always expect the government to build something on their own land.

Not sure about the business model for this city but a lot of state enterprises, ministries, university campuses and hospitals are already marked for relocation. How the commercial real estate will work remains unknown. The main reason is Beijing is just too cramped and out of space. This will also help develop the rest of Hebei province.
Just wondering, what ministry is marked for relocation?

China builds a brandly new nuclear powered submarine every 15 months. On the contrary, Aussies will build its very first one from 2021-2040 ( 19 years ) with Americans' help.
You should find out what is called the "Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty." The United States used this to sanction Iran & North Korea but not his little brother Australia. This shameless double standard is probably the so-called democracy. 😄
Begs the question, why is it such a problem for Australia to build one then, eh?
I think it’s you who should check that. The non-proliferation treaty covers nuclear WEAPONS, not nuclear power. Why does this need to be explained to so many people?
@@8964TS You think people are dumb? Nuclear-powered submarines require weapon-grade fuel, especially in the kind that US and UK operates (over 90%). These type of submarines are "strategic" - they can be armed with nuclear warheads and stay submerged for months in waters Australian military have no business to be in, if Australia secretly procures some from the US. Most people in Asia do not trust the Anglosphere countries to act in good faith anymore.
Yeah … nope.

In October 2019, my bus to Beijing spent one hour to pass through the construction area there on super highway. I believe China will become the first country in building into 22nd century.
As a Chinese living abroad i am so much impressed by your video. I can’t wait to evidence the miracle of Xiong’An city!

brace urself all western media would say this is new ghost city in china 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Western media: buildings can collapse at any time :)
In fact it will not become a ghost city because it is a government project and the state has state-of-the-art facilities for the whole city.
After it is completed, the government will set a lot of preferential policies and subsidies, and high-end enterprises elsewhere will quickly enter the city
Who cares?
It's just for frustrated westerners to feel better about themselves.
guy check business insider , they talk about ghost city in china ,its predictable 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great video guys!
They use new concepts to build new Xiongan. They did underground level first. Put all cables including electricity, internet, water, sewage ext into tunnels. So there won't be any telegraph poles on the ground anymore. If there is any problem with cables, it's easy to fix. Then the subway tunnels. The city plan is that for all residents there are only 5 minutes walks to kindergartens, 10 minutes walks to elementary schools, 15 minutes walks to high schools. Working and living will be all close by. They try to minimize the commune traffics.
There will be robots constantly traveling along those underground tunnels to monitor any problems.
The night footage of the cranes is awesome. You could have included a little more of that.
China has done this kind of projects 100 times in the past 40 years since they opened up in 1978.
When China does something the world gets crazy.
why can't they just spend a minute looking at themself for a while :(
It already came out, China has 400 million vacant units unoccupied and unsold, it seems the Chinese housing bubble is now bursting. Every major developer in China is now going bust. I am glad you are fueling the decline of China.
The question of housing in China is important and complex. But a bigger issue is trying to decipher if you're a man or woman, from your profile picture I'll say hermaphrodite.
I agree. They created a bubble and they have been trying to put brakes on developers using pyramid schemes to fund the next project before they have completed the last one.
This looks like a flood zone whose buried infrastructure won't survive as we seen in the drownings in subways in other towns.
@@MrKenRuryyou are right
Amazing indeed!
Damn, that is my hometown. My cousin have been talking about the development and other stuff, I planned my trip back in Feb 2020 but had to cancel it due to covid.
Half a trillion USD equals 1/4 of the Americans spent in Afghanistan.
Wow. You given a new perspective to measure the wastefulness of American tax dollars spent on the war in Afghanistan. America could have 4 of those brand new cities!
The construction sites are the things on the surface, behind scenes, there is a 'brain' driven by AI technology managing the progress of all those projects, it is located in a government-based building. The Xiong'An city is not only built to accommodate people, there are lots of concepts being experimented with to direct the design of future cities. For example, huge pipes are being built underground for courier automotive vehicles, which will relieve the traffic jams on the ground. You can focus more on these new ideas to produce in-depth videos.
China focuses on developing rather than the domestic political fight...people work hard to realise their China dream and make their life better...they know improving the living standard and quality is way more ipmortant than expressing political views at this stage to them...So pls leave people there alone to improve their living standard there rather than telling them fighting with CCP to make chaos for their life!! For God sake, western politians.....
western politicians want Chinese people to fight with CCP because they don’t want China to grow and Chinese people to have improved living standard. Global resources are not unlimited so they don’t wanna lose and have a declined living standard (although it’d still be way higher than the global average). They don’t care how non-western people live they just wanna keep being the only Tier 1 countries in the world
CNN，bbc , New York Times: a new ghost city coming in China 😂
👉China's reform policy is to make every effort to develop and construct, take care of more people,
disperse urban population density, control excessively high housing prices and personal economic pressure,
so that the society as a whole will be balanced, continue to progress, and life will have a better future.👍
Good job

580 billion dollars? So still only 80% of the US military budget for a single year. Shows where each government's priorities lie.
A brand new city from scratch of this size is insane. Be great watching the progress as obv cities are something that usually evolve from smaller settlements, not just appear from nowhere.
Just imagine what USA could have done in their own country, if they haven't gone to the LAST WAR, just the last war.😵
Being a foreigner i dont understand why the american citizens approve this insane military budget instead of spending some of it in developing the country, e.g. look at the homeless people, the unemployed, the ordinary people dont seem to care.
@@_seola_ The US would do the same as it always does. Money is nothing and the US government knows it, that's why it always spends. China is not doing anything remarkable because it does the same what the US does. There is no who can do it better.
@@marymary9814 Most of us ordinary people in the US care about those issues you mentioned but some of us not all understand that money can't solve everything. It's no simple of a solution to keep throwing money around and expect it to work itself out. Most of you only see doom and gloom with the US but it will never occur to you that the US also has a bright future. Yes things in the US is terrible at the moment but that's just a temporary condition.
@Brandy Clutch All this will mean nothing by 2027. There is a master plan that the US been part of since it's founding and it will start coming together soon. The US will go through government reform for the first time in its history. What will happen in the US will change everything and effect nations everywhere. It will feel like a new Earth.

Building a brand new city to China is just lego playtime.
Humanity over the centuries expanded small villages to towns to large settlements to then looking close large settlements together to form cities, spanning over hundreds of years, like London, Paris, Rome, Barcelona and so on. To build a city from scratch, that gives the advantage of planning far ahead.
Once again you are the pioneers of Lao wei's who show the real China. One that is in constant movement. Imagine in 20 years when you tell your grandchildren you were there, when they were still constructing the buildings! :-)

Wow very nice and Amazing One, I love it 💞💞 watching from the Philippines 💞💞🙏🕊️
Wow the city it’s under construction, so massive
I am extremely excited about the this gigantic project. Not only we will be able to see a brand new and modern city, but also we see the gov's determination and brave attempt on improving people's life quality. Given the current crowdedness in Beijing and the existence of high speed train, I am pretty sure the new city will be very popular once built, but even it fails, I am still glad to see the gov's attempt to do so. The worst thing is the gov keeps saying about improving life quality but actually does nothing.
Now that Evergrande is collapsing with debt, are they going to stop building Xiong'an city ? Is construction slowing down ?
