China is no longer considered good only as a manufacturing base, for its expertise in other fields is attracting people from across the globe, and that includes the United States.

A construction project that can build a house within five hours has generated excitement among officials and attracted experts and real estate businessmen from Mississippi and Florida, two of the many US states to be hit by Hurricane Katrina late August last year.

The team from Mississippi and Florida is in Beijing seeking help to rebuild houses in the devastated areas.
