In Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the summer can be blazingly hot. Although we are not so sure when the global pandemic will be over, we surely expect that the market in the Greater Bay Area will become sizzling hot in the near future. Page 02 BAY AREA IP WATCH A Complete Explanation of the 5G industry in the Greater Bay Area The official entry of 5G technology into the public eye began in 2013, and after 2017, the 5G technology system and application ecology has continued to mature. In 2019, 5G opened the road to commercialization, and this year also became the first year of 5G commercialization. Since its development, the application scenarios of 5G have mainly focused in the fields of smart cities, telemedicine, digital government, smart transportation, smart home, smart manufacturing, and cloud VR/AR areas that cover every aspect of life. In the future, 5G will continue to develop in the direction towards instantaneity, high-bandwidth, integration, and intelligence, leading the world into the new era of digital economy with the internet for everything. In the field of science and technology, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is home to a number of world-leading high-tech companies, universities and research institutions. In recent years, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has increased its technological influence, concentrating nearly one-fifth of the country's technology industries. 1 In the process of 5G technology development, the Greater Bay Area has continuously implemented complementary policies and measures to optimize the institutional design and business environment, and it has fostered a number of industry-leading institutions, creating a unique advantage in influencing the world. 1. Industry Landing In the practical application of 5G, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has the advantages of wide geographic coverage, strong economic strength and technology industry cluster effect. On October 31, 2019, the three major operators 1 IPIP: "Report on the Development of Patent Trends in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (20 16-2018)", Bay AreaIP Watch(2020), p.18. Page 03 BAY AREA IP WATCH provided a list of the first batch of 5G cities. Among the country's first 50 5G commercial cities, there were 5 cities in the Greater Bay Area, namely Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Foshan, Dongguan and Zhuhai. 1.1. In Terms of 5G Technology and Infrastructure Support First, base station construction. Focusing on base stations that are considered key prerequisite and safeguard for the construction of 5G networks, the Office of the Communications Authority of Hong Kong(OFCA) launched a pilot program in March 2019 to initiate opening of approximately 1,000 suitable government sites for the installation of base stations by operators, and streamline the application process for shortening the time required for approval and installation of base stations. By the end of December 2019, Guangdong Province had completed more than 30,000 5G base stations, ranking first in the country in terms of quantity. In Guangzhou, the three major telecom operators have taken the lead in completing nearly 100 5G base stations in 2019. In Shenzhen, more than 15,500 5G base stations will be completed in 2019, accounting for 40% of the province. In 2020, Shenzhen will build 45,000 5G base stations, the first to achieve full coverage of the city's 5G network and the nation's leading density of 5G base station construction. Second, technical support. In terms of technical support, Guangdong has a deep foundation and strength in network bandwidth, bands and site opening. In October of 2017, China Telecom successfully deployed the country's first 5G trial site in Shenzhen. In late October of 2019, Guangdong Unicom and Huawei completed aggregation test on world's first 5G NSA network in Guangzhou with 3.5GHz, 200MHz spectrum bandwidth for dual carriers. In November of 2019, Guangdong Unicom and Guangdong Telecom jointly completed the transformation and opening of the country's first 5G shared carrier base station. The peak internet speed for the 5G users on both ends are close to 1Gbps. 1.2. In the Construction of Industrial Centers and Parks On April 10, 2019, Guangdong Province 5G Medium and High Frequency Devices Innovation Center settled in Shenzhen, focused on weak links in the 5G industry and Page 04 BAY AREA IP WATCH the Key core technology research. In addition, Zhuhai has a strong foundation in the information technology and digital economy, which gives it an advantage in promoting the development of the 5G industry and innovative applications. Obviously, a number of key companies have emerged in the wireless communication chip design, RF device R&D and manufacturing, communication network operation and maintenance system R&D and manufacturing, intelligent terminal manufacturing, and ICT system integration and other fields. 1 At the present, some companies have carried out research and development of 5G-related technologies and products, such as Meizu Technology's 5G smartphone research and development, Eastcompeace Technology's 5G SIM card research and development, Century Dingli's network test instrument research and development, and etc. On April 26, 2019, China Telecom's 5G Innovation and Cooperation Conference kicked off in Shenzhen, which will strengthen policy coordination in standard-setting, security and resource allocation, accelerate the pace of 5G commercialization, and actively promote the interconnection and interoperability of 5G and other information infrastructures in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. On December 17, 2019, the list of 5G industrial parks in Guangdong Province (the first batch) was published on the website of the provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology. There is a total of three 5G industrial parks in Guangdong Province, which are located in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Shantou. 2 The 5G industrial parks will give full play to the leading edge of 5G technology and accelerate the development of 5G industry clusters. In March of 2020, China Telecom Guangdong Branch and the Conghua District Government of Guangzhou launched the "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area 5G Cloud Computing Center" project. As a national data center, China 1 Zhuhai Special Economic Zone Daily: “Zhuhai accelerates the application of new 5G technology to help build a trillion-dollar industry cluster in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area", http://www.zhuhai.gov.c n/ywdt/ztjj/ygadwqfzghgyzl/content/post_1777542.html.

The existing steel arch bridges in China and Japan were analyzed in terms of year of completion, main span length, structure type, main arch rib form and construction method. It is shown that the steel arch bridge in China has developed rapidly since 2000, characterized by a long main span, while in Japan it has stepped into a fast-growing period since 1955, with medium and small bridges holding a great majority. As for the main span length, most of the bridges have a span from 100m to 250m in China, while majority of bridges are shorter than 150m in Japan. Over 80% of the bridges in China are through and half-through bridge types, and the arch ribs are hingeless structures.

    China | Equity Strategy China 14 December 2014 EQUITY RESEARCH China The Year of the Ram: Stars Aligned for a Historic Bull Run Key Takeaway The Ram, the Bull and the Heavenly Twins – the stars are now aligned for China’s historic bull-run. China's stock market offers massive untapped potential given the high savings rate and low penetration. “Keeping Growth Steady” is a top priority for 2015; we expect SHCOMP and HSCEI to test 4,050 and 15,420, up 38% and 37% from current levels. As confidence gains momentum, volatility becomes the investors’ best friend. CHINA China Gallops into a Historic Bull Run. On Nov 20, 2013, we wrote “The Year of the Horse will see China unleash its full potential, as President Xi ushers in a new era of profound change.” “We expect capital markets to gradually gain confidence in China’s ability to drive fundamental reforms and expect Chinese stocks to enter a historic multi-year bull run.” Indeed, 2014 has been a remarkable year. As of Dec.12, SHCOMP surged 39% to 2938, breaking a seven-year bearish trend to become the best performing index in the world. China Stock Market: Massive Untapped Potential. According to China Household Finance Survey, property accounted for 66.4% of total Chinese household assets in 2013. Financial assets accounted for a mere 10.1% of household wealth. While over 61% of Chinese families have bank deposits, only 6.5% of them invested in the stock market. Given China’s high savings rate and low stock market penetration, we believe the A-share market offers significant upside potential.
