Fast forward
“超级天眼”背后的科技热情
Deep in the karst landscape of Guizhou province, FAST is scanning the skies for signs of extraterrestrial life. The world’s biggest radio telescope represents not only China’s ambitions in the skies but also a decades-long mission to be a space power on Earth—as well as bringing “science-led” tourism development to FAST’s surrounding villages. As China tries to bring foreign-educated talent back home, and a young naturalist makes science cool on Weibo, China’s ambition of becoming a scientific power is well underway
Silicon Saga
中关村：“中国硅谷” 沉浮录
From a bustling and chaotic electronics market in the late 1980s to the headquarters of many of China’s tech behemoths, the history of Zhongguancun is a microcosm of the country’s own economic rise, a narrative never told in English, until now
A Long Lens
百年光影：照相馆的前世今生
Tucked behind unassuming storefronts on busy thoroughfares, Beijing’s photo studios have been part of China’s history from photographing opera stars to movie actresses, state dignitaries to Red Guards. In the era of digital photography and smartphones, is there still time for a trip to the studio?
Scared Straight
向“同性恋矫正治疗”说不
While officially no longer classified as a mental illness, homosexuality is still treated as a curable disease by many illegal clinics—and even some state-run hospitals. Now, following a series of shocking incidents of abuse, China’s LGBT community is fighting back, suing hospitals, and campaigning for recognition of their rights
Pop Culture
消逝中的童年记忆：“大炮手摇爆米花”
When the temperature descends and there’s a chill in the air, China’s roadside popcorn makers come to town amid the clamor of neighborhood children. One of Hangzhou’s few remaining popcorn-makers fires up his mysterious metal machine and shows TWOC how to pressure-cook the delicious snack, which may soon exist just in memory
Death of A Professor
《教授之死》
“Serve the people was his mantra” one he urged others to live by every day. But the venerable professor was about to learn a real-life lesson from outside his ivory tower: Some people don’t deserve to be served, and few good deeds go unpunished
#MeWhere?
为“性骚扰”发声为什么这么难？
The sexual assault scandals that rocked Hollywood in the fall has ensured that the American entertainment industry will never be the same—but while Chinese society has no shortage of examples of sexual harassment and abuse, what does it take for Chinese women to say #MeToo?
The Unforbidden
“解禁”紫禁城
Forbidden in name alone, for years the Palace Museum was neglected, and once even considered for demolition, before Nixon’s 1972 visit helped reopen its gates to the public. Now an ambitious program of regeneration, renovation, and modernization is bringing this precious relic of imperial architecture into the 21st century
Funky Foods
那些“臭名昭著”的美食
Once upon a time, some bean curd rotted in a jar, and a merchant tasted it—thus a new delicacy was born. From pungent tofu to stinky spinach to slightly decayed fish, Sun Jiahui explores variations of smelly foods and explore the fascination with the funky in Chinese cooking
Fate, Play, Love
寻觅鼓浪屿：为音乐驻足，为缘分停留
Xiamen’s Gulangyu, the “Island of Pianos,” is more than just cobblestoned streets and colonial architecture. From musical collaborations to the lively Guanyin Temple and hordes of white-clad wedding photo-takers, the island is a convergence of friendships, fate, and unexpected meetings
The Looming Storm
暴雪中的小人物与大时代
A serial killer stalks the streets of an industrial city in the mid-90s, as storm clouds gather on the horizon. Set during a period of upheaval and reform, in a bleak locale, The Looming Storm offers a redemptive narrative in the form of an unemployed security guard determined to catch the killer—but will the weight of this coming reckoning bring him down, too?
