And of course to choose these electronic products, mobile phones, personal computers etc from

and a lot more which I can further post them here if time/space permits

Go happy shopping in / from China our honourable guests!

And of course please dont forget our Railway system!

You have given me a great idea.

I think we should create a thread like your post where we can show what technology China exports to the world and what Chinese companies do it (include their logo). You have mentioned a few such as Huawei (telecommunication equipment, routers and switches), State Grid (UHV transmission), etc.

A few others I can think of are:

High-speed trains and locomotives from CRRC.

Nuclear technology such as ACP-1000 3rd generation nuclear reactor from CNNC and CGN.

Oil and gas drilling equipment.

Solar panels.

Wind turbines.

Commercial drones from DJI.

Regional aircraft like ARJ-21 from COMAC.

So many other companies in various fields.

Really Nice idea, Beidou !

Hope there is thread in here section about :

Chinese Nuclear Energy Development

Chinese Automotive Industry Development

Chinese Commercial Aircraft Development

To promote what Chinese achieve in that Development.

 

[TheTheoryOfMilitaryLogistics]

China-designed? I think Japan-designed is better and safe especially in nuclear reactor.

 

[haman10]

Regional aircraft like ARJ-21 from COMAC.

Thats a multi-national project . Iran is also going to produce that thing along with Russia , china and India if i'm not mistaken

@SOHEIL has more info regarding that

Is this the ACP-1000 reactor?

Yes.

Construction Start of First Hualong One Generation III Reactor at Fuqing, China
Saturday 9 May 2015

Construction Start of First Hualong One Generation III Reactor at Fuqing, China

Construction began 7 May 2015 with the start of the pouring of basemat concrete for the 1100 MW Fuqing unit 6 nuclear reactor in Fujian province in south east China. Approval for the start of construction of the reactor, an ACP-1000 design, also known as the Hualong One, was granted in April 2015 by the China National Energy Administration. This brings to five the number of nuclear reactors under construction at the Fuqing site. The China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) is working in a 50:50 partnership with China General Nuclear Power Group (CGN) on development of the ACP-1000. The design is based on CGN’s ACPR-1000, a more advanced version of CGN’s Generation II CPR-1000 and CNNC’s ACP-1000 designs.
The ACP-1000 is a 1,100 megawatt, three-loop pressurized water reactor.

Construction of the ACP-1000 is expected to form a major part of future domestic construction as well as forming the basis for Chinese nuclear export projects, including to Pakistan, the UK and Argentina. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Generic Reactor Safety Review (GRSR) completed its review of the ACP-1000 in December 2014, the first Chinese reactor design to undertake such a process. The ACP-1000 is derived from the 900 MWe reactors that China imported from France in the 1990s. The first two ACP-1000 units had been planned for units 5 and 6 of the Fuqing nuclear power plant in Fujian province.

China-designed? I think Japan-designed is better and safe especially in nuclear reactor.

Iran in Talks with China to Build New Nuclear Sites

Islamic regime presses ahead with new nuclear plans: after announcing 2 new sites last month, it now seeks Chinese reactors.

After announcing construction on two new nuclear facilities in a southeast region on the Indian Ocean late last month, Iran continues to seek new nuclear sites after the nuclear deal that was struck last month.

Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) deputy chief and spokesperson Behrouz Kamalvandi on Tuesday revealed that his organization is currently holding negotiations with China to build several additional nuclear reactors, reports the semi-official Fars News Agency.

"Talks are underway between Iran and China on building ACP100 small reactors and whenever we achieve results we will publicize it," Kamalvandi said, expressing his hopes that a bilateral agreement on the reactors will be signed soon.

The nuclear deal, which China was a partner to, stipulates that Iran will not build any new uranium enrichment facilities for a period of 15 years. While Iran's new nuclear plants will not necessarily be used to enrich uranium - although they will at the least require enriched uranium in order to operate - Iran has a long history of lying about the military aspects of its nuclear program.

Ascertaining the usage of the new plants will be made all the more difficult because the deal gives Iran 24 days before any inspection.

The ACP100 nuclear reactors that Iran plans to purchase are a Chinese model that is installed underground according to the report.

Back in April, Kamalvandi spoke about the two nuclear reactors to be built in the southeast whose construction plans were announced last month, and revealed that the AEOI is also seeking to build large nuclear power plants.

At the same time he noted that "at present, the world is moving towards the construction of small power plants since they can have different applications."

The AEOI spokesperson added that two or three small nuclear plants can be built one next to the other to construct a medium size power plant.

Last December, Kamalvandi announced that AEOI had begun construction on two new nuclear power plants in Bushehr province in Iran's south.

"We have entered the executive phase of the construction of these two nuclear power plants based on the contract signed between Tehran and Moscow in March to construct the plants," he said.

The Iran deal has the Islamic regime inspecting its own covert Parchin nuclear site, which Iran has admitted to using to test exploding bridge wire nuclear detonators and has refused requests by international inspectors to see the site.

We just got busier building nuclear reactor. Our domestic production alone already account over 50% of the world nuclear reactor.

Iran Nuclear Chief in China to Revamp Arak Reactor

Salehi to seal agreement redesigning heavy water reactor, indicating China will take lead on site almost able to produce nuclear arsenal.

Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) head Ali Akbar Salehi left for Beijing on Wednesday, in an official visit to sign an agreement by which China will redesign Iran's Arak heavy water reactor and purchase the construction of several new small nuclear reactors for the Islamic regime.

Salehi is to be in China for three days according to the semi-official Fars News Agency, which noted that the highlight of the trip is to be the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with Chinese officials stipulating that Beijing will help Iran upgrade and redesign Arak.

The move would seem to indicate that China will take a leading role in the heavy water reactor's redesign, even though the Iran nuclear deal left it open as to which world powers would be involved in that step.

The AEOI head is to meet with the chairman of the China Atomic Energy Authority (CAEA) Xu Dazhe on Wednesday evening, and with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi the following evening, according to the Mehr News Agency which is also a semi-official outlet of the Iranian government.

Salehi will also visit several nuclear facilities and research centers in China during his visit according to Iranian media.

The Arak reactor was a key point in nuclear talks, given that the heavy-water nuclear facility is almost completed, and once complete it could produce several nuclear weapons every year.

In the nuclear deal sealed last month, Iran agreed to remove the reactor core from Arak and redesign it with new technology provided by world powers so as "to minimize the production of plutonium and not to produce weapon-grade plutonium in normal operation."

While Iran is to main full control over the site's management, spent fuel is to be shipped out of the country according to the deal. Iran agreed in the deal not to build a new heavy water reactor for 15 years.

Nuclear bonanza since the deal

Talk of redesigning the Arak reactor was first heard in a secret draft outline released by Associated Press back in June. That document started detailing how the West would give Iran advanced nuclear technology in return for it making some temporary limitations on its nuclear program.

Iran has been in a rush to build new nuclear sites after the deal. Late last month, just weeks after the agreement was sealed, Iran announced construction on two new nuclear facilities in a southeast region on the Indian Ocean.

AEOI deputy chief and spokesperson Behrouz Kamalvandi on Tuesday revealed Iran's plans to buy new nuclear reactors from China, saying Iran is interested in ACP100 small nuclear reactors which are installed underground.

He noted that two or three small nuclear plants can be built one next to the other to construct a medium size nuclear plant.

The nuclear deal, which China was a partner to, stipulates that Iran will not build any new uranium enrichment facilities for a period of 15 years. While Iran's new nuclear plants will not necessarily be used to enrich uranium - although they will, at the least, require enriched uranium in order to operate - Iran has a long history of lying about the military aspects of its nuclear program.

Ascertaining the usage of the new plants will be made all the more difficult because the deal gives Iran 24 days before any inspection.

As part of a classified side deal with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Iran will be inspecting its own Parchin site, where it has admitted to conducting nuclear detonator testing in the past.

China did a wonderful job, along with Russia, in ensuring the success of the nuclear negotiations. It is natural that Iran perceives China as a friendly, development-oriented and respectful global partner.
