China's achievements in tech innovation attract attention in US

LOS ANGELES - China's achievements in technology innovation have drawn increasing attention from US media and the high-tech world, and won affirmations from renowned US technology experts.

High-tech China is inventing the next, new thing in frontier technologies: artificial intelligence, biotech, green energy, robotics and superfast and highly functional mobile communications, according to a recent report published by Forbes.

"China is no longer copying the US. Now the reverse is true. Facebook has copied WeChat in private group messaging and followed 15-second video app TikTok. Amazon has imitated Alibaba in online retailing. Lime has followed China's original Mobike and Ofo brands in bike-sharing," said the report.
