Currently, this article has been deleted by the publisher. (The original publication time was September 4, 2023.) The Twitter account mentioned in the article (Xi’s Moments) has the following introduction: “We focus on news about President Xi Jinping and China.” It shares the same name as the China Daily Network’s English special topic “Xi’s Moments“.
Recently, the overseas official Twitter account Xi’s Moments reposted the original video “Wuhan Sky Rail Line Test Drive Looks Like a Sci-Fi Scene” released by Hubei and @ Open Hubei, the Twitter sister account of Hubei.
The video was produced by Hubei and globally promoted through the Hubei International Communication Center (HICC) and the Open Hubei account on overseas platforms, receiving a warm response. Hua Chunying liked and reposted it on her Twitter account, and overseas matrix platforms such as China Daily quoted and reposted it. There were a large number of overseas netizens’ comments under Hua Chunying’s tweet.
Netizen: This “aerial railway” is very positive for tourism. In the case of traffic congestion, it takes an “aerial shortcut” from one place to another instead of from the ground, which is a very efficient way of transportation.
Netizen: Looks cool! It seems I need to go to China to see their future works!
There are also some overseas netizens expressing amazement and appreciation!
This first “suspended light rail” in the country is expected to open and operate at the end of 2023. Let’s take the “Guanggu Photon” with Xiaobu to check in the places to play near the sky rail～
