Future Cities, a full-length documentary strand from WIRED Video, takes us inside the bustling Chinese city of Shenzhen.

We examine the unique manufacturing ecosystem that has emerged, gaining access to the world’s leading hardware-prototyping culture whilst challenging misconceptions from the west. The film looks at how the evolution of “Shanzhai” - or copycat manufacturing - has transformed traditional models of business, distribution and innovation, and asks what the rest of the world can learn from this so-called “Silicon Valley of hardware".

Future Cities is part of a new flagship documentary strand from WIRED Video that explores the technologies, trends and ideas that are changing our world. Subscribe to the WIRED UKposts channel to ensure you never miss an episode.
HOLY LAND: STARTUP NATIONS (SERIES 2)
Premiering in February, the second season of WIRED’s Future Cities series takes us inside one of the world’s biggest startup nations. With the most tech startups and venture capital per capita in the world, Israel has long been hailed as The Startup Nation. WIRED’s four-part series will look beyond Tel Aviv’s vibrant, liberal tech epicentre to the wider Holy Land region - the Palestinian territories, where a parallel Startup Nation story is emerging in East Jerusalem, Ramallah and the West Bank, as well as in the Israeli cybersecurity hub of Beersheba. And we will learn how the fertile innovation ecosystem of Silicon Wadi has evolved as a result of its unique political, geographical and cultural situation and explore the future challenges - and solutions - these nations are facing.

In 2002 - 2003, I was a tech rep for my US company in China (and Singapore). Our Chinese manufacturing partner was in Hangzhou, but our Chinese offices were in Shenzhen and Hong Kong where most of our Chinese sales were, so I had a chance to see the start of the development and innovation process this film so ably explains. What I saw back then blew me away, but when I got back Stateside no one would credit what I saw developing. The misunderstanding and complacency among my friends and business acquaintances was striking. Today we see the consequence of that sort of thinking. This film ought to be required viewing in our schools and communities. Thanks!

What you saw or remember, was largely created by U.S. companies (and their European, Japanese, Taiwanese, Korean, and Singaporean counterparts). So I don't think there was any complacency since it was a product of the United States primarily (Silicon Valley, Austin, Seattle, Boston, Raleigh, NY, Irvine, LA, etc. etc. etc.) and Western Capitalism/Globalism/Innovation.

As someone who has lived and worked in the original Silicon Valley for 20 years and who has visited Shenzhen, I found this documentary captivating. So well made. I suppose I could be in the wrong circles, but I never hear anyone talking about the value of open source to the economy here from the outsiders perspective that was presented in this doc. This video really showcases the cultural differences between China and the U.S. when it comes to technological advancement and the subsequent blind spot we have here as a result.

The presenter may call it "open source", is because once upon a time, when public entities devolved their branch of the government into the commercial sector.. This became "open source".. but it is meant to be closed loop. Especially from outsiders' perspective. i.e. Cannot be obtained outside of the country. Exactly how is this "open source"? In today's areas.. this is classified as "terrorism" really ! It was not until Trump used those words that he did for his campaign did people click. Cos so many companies spend A LOT.. in order to obtain SOME privacies... The presenter is also using that terminology.. because China is also reforming.. and it refuses to classify which is private company's own assets.. and which are NOT private... and NOT public.. OR which is the militaries' !!! THIS is why.. we are in 1) lock down today... and 2) in a global chaos, cos they refuse to classify this !!!! So it means that... genuine communism can exist.. like..." I can walk into your office, and take this item, and it shall be mine." That is what genuine communism really is. I keep thinking to myself if they are creating a kind of keiretsu ..... like the Japanese.. but they aren't.

They are not from 'lower-class', for China isn't like India, China doesn't have caste system deeply embedded, which enables the Chinese to join any group, learn any trade, do anything to survive, without any artificial barriers, and this has been the one thing that allows the Chinese to evolve, and evolve at a breathtaking pace. The present crop of the Chinese are also descendants of those who have managed to THRIVE despite multiple episodes of massive disasters, where large number of people died, for no reason. The Chinese, unlike those in the West, are not pampered. They have to find ways to earn a living, as the Chinese society, for thousands of years, never provide any 'social aid' for those so-called 'marginalized'.

@@MoHiker69 Since you are the one who brings up the subject of 'diversity', could you kindly elaborate more on your notion of 'diversity'? I mean, *'diversity for the sake of diversity'= --- like the one being implemented in Western universities and colleges, where people with darker color skin (which ironically excluding the Indians) are getting unfair advantages on enrollments and on job placements --- just because the Western system needs them to be 'diversity token' (kinda like totem poles erected just for the sake of showing off) in their so-called 'diversified paradise'. If your definition of 'diversity' is of that kind, no thanks, the Chinese needs no pretentious 'diversity' that contributes exactly *NOTHING* to the advancement of the society. Meritocracy is the currency of the Chinese society --- and that has been the prevailing pattern in China for the past 3 thousand years, and Meritocracy will continue to be the one thing Chinese rely to move their society forward.

This concept is both terrifying as an engineer and one of the best things to happen for humanity. As an engineer, I would be terrified to live there. To think that I would need to stay one step ahead of everyone else for the rest of my life in order to make any money is a scary concept. Sure, it promotes constant improvement of technologies which is great for the common good, but the concept of having to be the best to stay afloat is a very stressful one. Here in the US, it takes one real great invention or advancement to guarantee someones' financial future. In Shenzhen, you would need to do that every day. It's like having to find gold every time you swing a pickaxe.

Yassin Zao the world isn't black and white. I don't want absolute freedom to steal, and I don't want absolute strangleholds on IP. In fact, given your post, I'm probably closer to your point of view than I am to the point of view that you think I have. Freedom is great, and innovators should be able to take inspiration from other's designs. However, absolute freedom is not desirable. The freedom must be tempered by some small logical limits. But there is a big difference between saying: "wow, segway is great, and now that I know it is possible, I bet I could code the same thing" and stealing the code without modification, and putting it in your own unit, and being able to undercut the competition because you didn't have to invest millions of dollars in R&D. That's not hypothetical, that is what a chinese company did, and that is why segway eventually failed, and was sold off. It is just part of the $300,000,000,000 in IP theft that china perpetrates against the USA. Every year. And to be clear, I'm not calling the current IP system perfect. there are some reforms needed, like the bipartisan anti-patent troll bill currently in the house. But it is a much better system than the complete destruction of IP that this video advocates.

kira zeno in the US it's Capitalism with all its upsides and dowsides , so it's about personal interest , power and greed and since it's a democracy the power switches every 4 years so it's not easy to have the government plan for a long term policy . In China basically it's communism at the top level but with capitalist reforms and a long term vision and goals and it's about encouraging and uplifting the individual but within a collective mainframe or goal . That's what had helped China lead in the solar energy market for example and now they're having this system to direct private investing in the growth areas such as tech and space etc , their average power of purchase is increasing while in the US it's going down steadily since the 60s , one empire is falling while the other is rising !!

My career in the semiconductor industry spanned the 60's to early 2000's. Prior to the 90's patents were primarily enforced on significant process discoveries such as the "planar" process. During that era the argument that an engineer cannot be barred from applying their knowledge and skills to provide a livelyhood dominated. As a result engineers changed companies on average every 1.5 years spreading their knowledge and skills creating over 100 semiconductor companies in the process. The advancements in processes knowledge spread like wild fire through these companies. This began to change in the early 90's most famously when Lemelson patent attorneys began winning massive law suits forcing semiconductor companies to engage huge legal defense teams. Once these teams were in place the corporations incentivized thier engineers to patent all inovations to create a massive patent defensive wall to fend off the hoard. The engineers now could and would be seriously harmed if they passed proprietary knowledge to another company. This simultaneously improved corporate legal defense and reduced the passing of proprietary information between companies.

Not this nonsense again. Hong Kong dwellers don't hate Chinese people. Culturally they are the same. How can you hate yourself? Mostly Hong Kong people's grandparents migrated from rural China. They have relatives there and visit frequently. They love China. They hate the Chinese government autocratic practices. Such as many Chinese people who move to Hong Kong, now they feel free enough to criticise the Mao government for stealing their property, burning down their homes, being marked as traitors and killing their relatives during the cultural revolution. These two things are very different and should not be confused.

Im still fairly convinced about the virtues on the side of the coin presented here however. China is ridiculously massive though so I see endless scope for a lot of 'good' and 'bad' in anything. Intention and approach play a role in it for how I interpret a given example. I am also possibly biased myself as I would position myself in an open source camp in both form and culture/mind-set.

I believe that there needs to be a perfect balance between working collectively for the group and for the individual. If one doesn't get the recognition they deserve or the incentive for their works, this creates catastrophic impact on the society they live in. Such as the dilemmas of communism which is an extreme example. If I'm doing a better job, than my colleague over there, why shouldn't I get more. My parents lived right next door to the largest communist country, and my grandparents came from there and although we were advantaged in many areas, we could observe the difference in work ethic and drive of our capitalistic society to their collective ideology. At one point, HK was worth 70-80% of the GDP in China. A whole result is a society that does the minimum required and strictly within the bounds of 'what the collective' needs. Sometimes it takes selfish drive. And going back to a personal question. If I do something well such as run well in a race, get best prize on the science fair why should I not claim it? Selfishness and personal cultivation is just as important to society. There's no doubt that there's thousands of inventors that contributed to the development of planes.

@@sy3934 "Lazy" is not a word that can be applied to most entrepreneurs. It takes time, money and hard work to bring a product to market. If the product will be stolen before a profit can be made then why bring it to market? Why bother inventing anything? Without those inventions, what will happen to Chinas economy? This is not just about China. Most countries have cheated in the past. Then they discover it is in their best interest not to. If China aspires to be anything but the worlds sweatshop it will discover this too.

Eye opening why? Kids learn and adapt fast, doesn’t matter what race. You have to realise a) the video is edited to show you what they want you to see, and b) it’s a population of 1.3 billion+ so you can always find examples to help promote your story/agenda.

I discovered there are plenty of websites that sell these phones, only issue I had is the shipping can be... Lacking compared to modern standards. The tech is decent but you will also encounter weird flaws or features if you don't research thoroughly. Anyway, I used a site called gear best iirc, decent prices for all kinds of weird electronics
