The Zhongguancun Forum opened in Beijing on Thursday, with high-tech enterprises gathering together to spotlight their latest innovations. CGTN's Wang Mengjie was there and found new materials not only for high-tech applications, but also useful for average people.

WANG MENGJIE CGTN Reporter "The piece of material seems normal. But don't blink or you will miss it. This is where the magic happens."

"So, please unveil the secret for us."

WANG XIAO Manager, Beijing Matrix Technologies Co., Ltd. "All right. The heating stage is about 120℃ now."

WANG MENGJIE CGTN Reporter "Such a high temperature."

WANG XIAO Manager, Beijing Matrix Technologies Co., Ltd. "Yes. Let me drop a little water."

WANG MENGJIE CGTN Reporter "I can feel the heat."

WANG XIAO Manager, Beijing Matrix Technologies Co., Ltd. "Let me put this piece of material on the stage."

WANG MENGJIE CGTN Reporter "I can even put my hand on it now."

WANG XIAO Manager, Beijing Matrix Technologies Co., Ltd. "Indeed."

This superposition material is made of nano thermal materials, providing substantial warmth despite its light weight, even in the coldest winters.

WANG XIAO Manager, Beijing Matrix Technologies Co., Ltd. "In Europe and America, in the United States and Japan, over 200 companies have used our material among 20 industries. This is an innovation that belongs to basic materials. Only innovations could bring more changes to the industry."

"Seems magic."

Not only for high-tech applications, but also useful for average people in their everyday lives.
