In this episode of "Meet China", we will bring you three stories that explore China's rich cultural tapestry – its flourishing flower industry, a filmmaker who is reviving Chinese mythology, and exploring Chengdu in 72 hours.

First, we will explore the growing retail market of China's flower industry and the opportunities it has created for plant enthusiasts. We visited the 2024 International Horticultural Exhibition in Chengdu to uncover the stories behind this thriving vibrant industry.

Next, we will meet filmmaker Wuershan, who has spent a decade creating a cinematic universe based on Chinese mythology. By combining 1,000-year-old-culture and art with cutting-edge technology, his films have captured the imagination of moviegoers. One of his films "Creation of The Gods I: Kingdom of Storms" smashed the box-office records in the summer of 2023.

Finally, we will guide you through 72 hours in the Sichuanese city of Chengdu, a UNESCO City of Gastronomy located in southwest China. From discovering the origins of mapo tofu, famous for its spicy and numbing "mala" flavors, to visiting the city's most beloved mascot – the giant panda, we will show you how to make the most of out of your stay.
