  • CGTN: How China, ROK leaders open new prospects for ties at Gyeongju meeting

    Following a face-to-face meeting between Chinese President Xi Jinping and ROK President Lee Jae-myung in Gyeongju, CGTN published an article highlighting how head-of-state diplomacy sets a new course for China–ROK relations and how the two countries can strengthen strategic communication, deepen cooperation, and promote mutual understanding for the benefits of both peoples and regional peace and development.

    Just after dawn in Jeju, the Republic of Korea (ROK), crates of fresh produce are loaded onto a vessel bound for Qingdao in east China.

    Launched on October 16, the Qingdao-Jeju container line is Jeju’s first regular international shipping route. Thanks to this route, a journey that once took two weeks can now be completed overnight.

    More than just a faster trade link, it signifies a renewed rhythm in China-ROK cooperation. Two weeks later, on November 1, that momentum found its political echo when Chinese President Xi Jinping and ROK President Lee Jae-myung met in Gyeongju, ROK, to chart the next stage of bilateral ties.

    At the meeting, President Xi described China and the ROK as “important close neighbors that cannot be moved away and cooperation partners that cannot be separated.” He stressed that “promoting the sound and steady development of China-ROK relations is always a right choice that serves the fundamental interests of the two peoples and conforms to the trend of the times.” Xi’s words set the tone for a relationship that, though tested by changes, continues to move forward with mutual respect and mutual benefit.

    ‘Important close neighbors that cannot be moved away

    During the meeting, President Xi called for strengthening strategic communication and consolidating the foundation of mutual trust, urging both sides to respect each other’s social systems and development paths while properly handling differences through friendly consultations. He also emphasized joint efforts to uphold true multilateralism and promote a fairer global governance system.

    High-level exchanges have warmed up in recent months. In August, President Lee sent a special delegation led by former National Assembly Speaker Park Byeong-seug to China for a four-day visit, carrying a personal letter from the ROK president with a clear message: to put bilateral relations back on a stable and constructive track. In September, National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-shik attended events marking the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War in Beijing, followed by Foreign Minister Cho Hyun’s first official visit in his current role, signaling Seoul’s commitment to dialogue and renewed trust.

    Niu Xiaoping, assistant research fellow at the Shanghai Institutes for International Studies, sees the Gyeongju meeting as more than a routine encounter. Niu said President Xi’s visit played “a bridging and guiding role,” helping China and the ROK “recalibrate and define a new positioning” for their partnership.

    ‘Cooperation partners that cannot be separated’

    Economic ties have long been the backbone of the relationship. China has been the ROK’s largest trading partner for 21 consecutive years, while the ROK has regained its position as China’s second-largest trading partner. In 2024, bilateral trade reached $328.08 billion, up 5.6 percent year on year.

    President Xi called for accelerating the second phase of the China-ROK Free Trade Agreement and tapping the cooperation potential in emerging fields such as AI, biomedicine, green industries and the silver economy.

    “To help one’s neighbor succeed is to help oneself,” said Xi. Lee, for his part, stressed that economic cooperation between the two countries is “vital and indispensable” when answering a question from a CMG reporter.

    President Xi also highlighted the importance of better communicating with the media and the general public, sending more positive messages and checking tendencies that may harm the relationship.

    This emphasis on public perception has found concrete expression in people-to-people exchanges. Since China introduced visa-free entry for ROK visitors last November, and the ROK followed with a temporary visa exemption for Chinese group tourists this fall, travel between the two nations has surged. People from the ROK made near 2 million trips to China from January to August this year, a 40-percent increase year on year.

  • How China is advancing a sustainable Asia-Pacific

    During the 32nd APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting in Gyeongju, Chinese President Xi Jinping announced that China’s Shenzhen City will host the 2026 APEC meeting. CGTN has published an analysis of China’s initiatives to promote regional connectivity and digital economy development, examining how China will take the opportunity of hosting the APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting for the third time to forge a sustainable and brighter future together.

     

    The southern Chinese city of Shenzhen will host the APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting in November 2026, Chinese President Xi Jinping announced at the APEC chairmanship handover session of the 32nd APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting in Gyeongju, the Republic of Korea, on Saturday.

    Shenzhen, located along the Pacific coast, is known for its rapid growth into a modern metropolis, emerging as a smart manufacturing and tech powerhouse after becoming a testing ground for China’s reform and opening up in the late 1970s.

    Next year’s APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting will be the third time China has hosted the event, with previous hosting roles in 2001 and 2014.

    Hailing Shenzhen’s rise as an important window to China’s pursuit of a mutually beneficial and win-win opening up strategy, Xi said China is willing to seize the opportunity of hosting the 2026 APEC meeting to work with all parties to focus on advancing the Free Trade Area of the Asia-Pacific (FTAAP), as well as practical cooperation in areas such as connectivity, the digital economy and artificial intelligence, to inject greater vitality and momentum into Asia-Pacific development and deliver more benefits to the people of the region.

    Since joining APEC in 1991, China has worked to promote the liberalization and facilitation of trade and investment in the Asia-Pacific region.

    During the 2014 APEC meeting in Beijing, China proposed a roadmap for achieving an FTAAP and launched an initiative for regional connectivity. In recent years, China’s cooperation with the Asia-Pacific region has deepened significantly, yielding tangible results. From January to September 2025, China’s trade with other APEC economies grew by 2 percent year on year, reaching a total of 19.4 trillion yuan (about $2.7 trillion).

    China’s approach to regional collaboration has won support, a recent CGTN poll suggests. Over 80 percent of respondents expressed support for China’s proposal to build an open, inclusive, innovation-driven, interconnected and mutually beneficial Asia-Pacific community with a shared future.

    Noting that the world faces lackluster economic growth and a widening gap in global development amid challenges such as climate change and energy security, Xi called on APEC economies to make good use of new opportunities, confront new challenges, and forge a sustainable and brighter future together during the second session of the 32nd APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting.

    To realize these objectives, Xi outlined three proposals: further unleashing the potential of digital and smart development, staying committed to green and low-carbon development, and building an inclusive and universally beneficial future.

    These ideas are already taking shape. China has proposed the establishment of a World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization, submitted its 2035 Nationally Determined Contributions on climate response, and funded the establishment of the APEC Support Fund – Sub-fund on Promoting Digitalization for Green Transitions.

    In the future, China will work with other APEC members to bridge the digital and AI divide in the Asia-Pacific region and continue implementing relevant initiatives on clean energy and green transition, Xi said.

    Eduardo Pedrosa, executive director of the APEC Secretariat, lauded China’s contribution to a new chapter for the Asia-Pacific region through pragmatic cooperation, adding that it will inject powerful energy into building a mutually beneficial Asia-Pacific community.

    Pedrosa expressed optimism for the future, noting that joint efforts among all APEC members will help lead economic globalization through challenges, opening a new chapter in regional prosperity and development.

    As China prepares to host APEC for the third time next year, Xi said he looks forward to all parties gathering in Shenzhen to discuss development plans for the Asia-Pacific and create a bright future for the region.

    The NASCAR Cup Series competed amidst an electrifying atmosphere at Martinsville Speedway. As JGR No.20 Team Driver Christopher Bell’s official apparel sponsor,  COOFANDY was deeply involved throughout, integrating its brand ethos of “Dress the Journey, Dress the Win” into every segment. This not only created a unique brand experience but also resonated deeply with the core spirit of racing culture.

    Eye-Catching Booth: Differentiated Interactions Create a Hotspot

    The COOFANDY booth, featuring the brand’s signature colors as its main visual, displayed model cars with racing livery and the apparel collection. Interactive elements like a popcorn machine and photo printer fostered a lively and relaxed vibe, attracting numerous spectators. Standing out among surrounding booths predominantly featuring categories like engines and beer, COOFANDY, as the sole apparel sponsor, distinguished itself with its unique positioning, becoming a popular photo spot on site. Visitors actively participated in interactions to win merchandise and took photos in front of the booth.

    Track-side, the COOFANDY Victory Angels cheerleading models, wearing outfits that blended brand and racing elements and holding brand flags, cheered for driver Christopher Bell throughout the race. Their unified chants, intertwined with the roar of engines, further communicated the “Dress the Journey, Dress the Win” brand philosophy, creating a dynamic spectacle alongside the track.

    Popular Engagement: Connecting with Racing Glory, Embodying the Brand Spirit

COOFANDY CMO Sidney Sun was also invited to try on a Super Bowl championship ring—a moment that touched the pinnacle of sports glory and closely linked the brand with the prestige of top-tier motorsports.

Coinciding with “Breast Cancer Awareness Month,” the impactful pink livery on the pace car added a touch of humanity and care to the intense competition. Post-race, the COOFANDY team sincerely thanked the attending guests, media, and spectators, showcasing the brand’s warmth.

    Shared Belief: Victory Lies in the Journey, Style Reflects the Spirit

  • AVIDLOVE Teams Up with Know Your Lemons to Launch the Pink Guardian Initiative, Spreading Breast Health Care Through Fashion

    In an era where women’s health is receiving increasing attention, the issue of breast health, which is crucial for both life and beauty, has become even more significant. Recently, the well-known lingerie brand AVIDLOVE joined forces with the international breast health charity Know Your Lemons Foundation to launch a three-month “Pink Care Campaign” and simultaneously introduce a limited-edition collaboration series. This initiative deeply integrates fashion design with philanthropic concepts, injecting warmth and strength into the global cause of breast health.

    Influencers Speak Out: From Illness to Empowerment, Redefining Beauty

    As a breast cancer survivor and Instagram influencer, Piper Landon shared her personal journey in an exclusive interview. She emphasized the critical importance of early health awareness and hoped that her story could inspire more women to listen to their bodies and take proactive care of themselves. Piper specifically pointed out that brand participation in health education can create a “ripple effect,” making discussions about women’s health more commonplace and conveying the message that “women are valued as whole individuals.” During her recovery, she redefined beauty and self-worth: “I’ve learned to see strength in my scars and no longer define myself by appearance.” She believes that fashion and beauty can serve as rituals for regaining self-identity on the road to recovery.

    Her experience resonates with AVIDLOVE’s philosophy of “beauty and health going hand in hand,” offering warmth and inspiration to more women in recovery.

    Pink Limited Edition: A Thoughtful Blend of Beauty and Health

    Beyond emotional resonance, AVIDLOVE is also committed to integrating health knowledge into daily life. The AVIDLOVE × Know Your Lemons Pink Limited Edition series, launched as part of this campaign, includes a range of items such as lace-trimmed nightgowns, sheer pajama sets, floral-print chemise dresses, and Y2K-style tank tops. Featuring a soft pink color palette and lace elements that highlight feminine grace, these pieces combine design aesthetics with comfort, catering to both everyday wear and emotional healing needs.

    Notably, all collaboration products come with a Breast Health Self-Examination Guide Card and a Heartwarming Fortune Card. The guide card presents self-examination steps in a simple and easy-to-understand manner, lowering the barrier to health monitoring. The fortune card carries the brand’s encouragement and blessings for women, adding emotional warmth to the wearing experience. Consumers can purchase these items through AVIDLOVE’s official website, contributing to the cause of breast health.

    Philanthropy Woven into Brand DNA: Fashion Can Be Full of Love

    As a socially responsible brand, AVIDLOVE has pledged to donate 10% of the sales revenue from the collaboration series to the Know Your Lemons Foundation. These funds will support global breast health education and charity projects.

    Additionally, AVIDLOVE encourages ordinary users to share their stories related to the brand and health. Multiple everyday users have posted “unboxing + self-examination guide” content on social media, sharing how a single piece of lingerie has prompted them to refocus on their own health. These stories collectively form a heartwarming picture of contemporary women’s self-awareness and mutual support.

    Pleasing Others and Pleasing Oneself: Empowering Women from the Heart

    Pleasing others while also pleasing oneself has always been a gentle yet firm commitment women make to themselves. Through the Pink Guardian Initiative, AVIDLOVE transforms fashion from mere external adornment into a carrier of health care and women’s empowerment. The soft touch of each collaboration item, the thoughtful reminders on every self-examination guide, and the warmth flowing from every donation all convey the message that “loving oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.”

    The brand believes that true beauty stems from the confidence of good health and inner certainty. This three-month-long philanthropic campaign is not only a convergence of fashion and charity but also a response to and support for women’s strength. It encourages every woman to listen to her body, cherish her uniqueness, and shine her own light in love and being loved. In the future, AVIDLOVE will remain steadfast in its philanthropic mission, ensuring that fashion carries warmth and health becomes the norm, accompanying women on their journey of self-love with grace, courage, and radiance.

    Auckland, New Zealand – 30/10/2025 – (SeaPRwire) – At the inaugural European Union – New Zealand Business Summit, Decent Cybersecurity represented Europe’s growing strength in digital and defence technologies. The company’s Founder and CEO, Matej Michalko, joined industry leaders to discuss innovation partnerships, cybersecurity resilience, and post-quantum readiness across trans-Pacific markets. The event gathered over 400 participants from business, technology, and research communities, underscoring a shared commitment to building secure and sustainable digital infrastructure between Europe and New Zealand.

    Hosted by Hon Todd McClay, New Zealand’s Minister for Trade & Investment, in partnership with Team Europe (the Ambassadors of the EU and its Member States), the Summit celebrated the strong growth of trans-Pacific cooperation. Since the EU–NZ Free Trade Agreement entered into force in 2024, two-way trade has already risen by NZ $2 billion, reaching NZ $21.6 billion in 2025.

    The event was officially opened by Prime Minister Christopher Luxon, who described the EU as “an innovation partner” and emphasised the shared values and strategic alignment between Europe and New Zealand in advancing trade, defence, and technology.

  • CMS (867.HK; 8A8.SG) NDA for AD Indication of Long-acting Anti-IL-4Rα Humanized Monoclonal Antibody Injection MG-K10 Accepted in China

    SHENZHEN, CHINAChina Medical System Holdings Limited (“CMS”) is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Dermavon Holdings Limited (“Dermavon”, an innovative pharmaceutical company specialized in skin health which is applying for a separate listing on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited, please refer to the announcement of CMS on 22 April 2025 for details) together with its subsidiaries, holds co-development rights (except for atopic dermatitis (AD)) and exclusive commercialization rights for the Class 1 innovative drug anti-IL-4Rα MG-K10 humanized monoclonal antibody injection (“MG-K10” or the “Product”). The New Drug Application (“NDA”) has been accepted by National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) on 30 October 2025. The product is intended for the treatment of adult with moderate-to-severe AD whose disease is not adequately controlled with topical prescription therapies or when those therapies are not advisable.

     

    MG-K10 (generic name: Comekibart Injection) is an innovative long-acting anti-IL-4Rα humanized monoclonal antibody that simultaneously blocks the signaling of key type 2 inflammatory cytokines IL-4 and IL-13. With a longer half-life, the Product enables a four-week dosing frequency (currently marketed anti-IL-4Rα drugs require biweekly dosing), which is expected to improve patient adherence. MG-K10 is expected to become the world’s first long-acting anti-IL-4Rα monoclonal antibody to be launched on the market, and has the potential to become the Best-in-Class (BIC).

     

    MG-K10 has achieved positive results in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III clinical study in adults with moderate-to-severe AD, meeting the primary research endpoint as designed, and at 52 weeks of treatment with MG-K10, proportion of participants with Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) score of 0 or 1, also with an improvement of 2 points from baseline is 76.6%; proportion of participants with 75% reduction in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI 75) from baseline is 94.3 %; proportion of participants with 90% reduction in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI 90) from baseline is 79.1 %. Regarding safety, most of the Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) were Grade 1-2, with no Adverse Event of Special Interest (AESI) or fatal adverse event occurred. The incidence of common adverse reactions (conjunctivitis, injection site reactions, etc.) of drugs with the same target is relatively low for MG-K10.

     

    The Product has the potential for the treatment of other type 2 inflammatory diseases, such as asthma, prurigo nodularis, seasonal allergic rhinitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic spontaneous urticaria, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, and eosinophilic esophagitis. Among them, asthma, prurigo nodularis and seasonal allergic rhinitis have all entered the phase III clinical trial stage in China.

     

    If MG-K10 is approved, it will provide a new, effective, and safe systemic treatment option for 14.5 million patients with moderate-to-severe AD[1]. Furthermore, MG-K10 will generate synergy with Dermavon’s ruxolitinib cream (for mild to moderate AD), the oral small molecule TYK2 inhibitor CMS-D001 (for moderate to severe AD), and dermatology-grade skincare products of Heling soothing product series, establishing a comprehensive solution for AD that covers various administration routes (injection, oral, and topical) and addresses multiple needs in “treatment + care”, benefiting a wide range of AD patients. Concurrently, it will further enrich Dermavon’s product portfolio in the field of dermatological treatment and reinforce its leading position in skin health sector.

     

    On 24 January 2025, CMS through its subsidiaries entered into a Collaboration Agreement (“Agreement”) with Hunan Mabgeek Biotech Co., LTD and its subsidiaries for MG-K10. In accordance with the Agreement and supplementary agreements, CMS has obtained the co-development rights (excluding AD) and exclusive commercialization rights for the Product in Mainland China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Macao Special Administrative Region, Taiwan Region and Singapore; its subsidiary Dermavon has obtained, through its subsidiary, the co-development rights (excluding AD) and exclusive commercialization rights for the Product in the field of dermatological indications in Mainland China.

     

    About AD Indication

    MG-K10’s first indication, AD, is a chronic inflammatory skin disease accompanied by severe itching. It is the most burdensome non-fatal skin disease worldwide and also a chronic disease with a relatively high prevalence and significant disease burden in China. It is estimated that there are over 54 million AD patients in China in 2024. Based on SCORAD scores, the proportion of moderate to severe AD in China was 27%, which means there are over 14.5 million patients[1]. Due to the limitations in efficacy and safety of traditional systemic therapies for AD, moderate to severe AD patients often experience delays in systemic treatment initiation, poor compliance, and suboptimal disease control, leaving a significant unmet need in clinical practice[2]. MG-K10, with its extended dosing interval of once every four weeks, is expected to improve patient adherence and provide a new, effective, and safe systemic treatment option for patients with moderate-to-severe AD.

     

    About CMS

    CMS is a platform company linking pharmaceutical innovation and commercialization with strong product lifecycle management capability, dedicated to providing competitive products and services to meet unmet medical needs.

     

    CMS focuses on the global first-in-class (FIC) and best-in-class (BIC) innovative products, and efficiently promotes the clinical research, development and commercialization of innovative products, enabling the continuous transformation of scientific research into clinical practices to benefit patients.

  • CGTN: President Xi Jinping: China, U.S. should work for good of both countries, world

    Following a face-to-face meeting between Chinese President Xi Jinping and U.S. President Donald Trump, CGTN published an article highlighting how head-of-state diplomacy provides strategic guidance for bilateral ties and how China and the United States can work together for the good of both countries and the world as a whole.

     

    Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Thursday that China and the United States can jointly shoulder responsibility as major countries, and work together to accomplish more great and concrete things for the good of their two countries and the whole world.

    President Xi made the remarks during a meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump after he landed in Busan, the Republic of Korea (ROK), ahead of the 32nd APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting in Gyeongju and his state visit to the ROK.

    The in-person talks came after three phone conversations and several exchanges of letters between the two presidents since Trump was re-elected.

    President Xi said the latest round of China-U.S. consultation in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where the two economic and trade teams reached consensus on solving various issues, has provided the necessary conditions for the meeting.

    “Dialogue is better than confrontation,” he said. China and the U.S. should maintain communication through various channels and at various levels to enhance mutual understanding, Xi added.

    The Chinese and U.S. presidents agreed to maintain interactions on a regular basis. Trump said he looked forward to visiting China early next year, and invited President Xi to visit the United States.

    ‘Business should remain anchor for ties’

    The relationship between China and the U.S. is widely viewed as the most consequential bilateral relationship in the world, since the two nations, combined, are home to over 40 percent of the global GDP, according to a survey by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, a U.S. think tank.

    An annual membership survey from the U.S.-China Business Council, released in July, found that more than 80 percent of American companies doing business in China were profitable last year and said they will remain committed to pursuing opportunities in China over the long term.

    Statistics from the United Nations show that the volume of trade in goods between China and the U.S. in 2024 reached $688.28 billion, which was 275 times that of 1979, when diplomatic relations were established. In addition, Chinese statistics ranked the U.S. as its second-largest trade partner in services in 2023 while U.S. data listed China as its fifth-largest services export market.

    The business relationship should continue to serve as the anchor and driving force for China-U.S. relations, not a stumbling block or a point of friction, said Xi during Thursday’s talks.

    “The two sides should think big and recognize the long-term benefit of cooperation, and must not fall into a vicious cycle of mutual retaliation,” he said.

    Xi called on the two countries’ economic and trade teams to continue talks in the spirit of equality, mutual respect and mutual benefit, and continuously shorten the list of problems and lengthen the list of cooperation.

    According to a recent CGTN poll, 87 percent of respondents believe China-U.S. economic and trade relations are fundamentally mutually beneficial, and 84.4 percent think closer China-U.S. economic and trade cooperation not only benefits both economies, but also provides a key safeguard for the stability of global industrial and supply chains.

    ‘China, U.S. should be partners, friends’

    During Thursday’s meeting, President Xi emphasized that China’s development and revitalization goes hand in hand with President Trump’s vision to “Make America Great Again.”

    China and the U.S. are fully able to help each other succeed and prosper together, Xi said.

    The findings of the survey by the the Chicago Council on Global Affairs, released on Tuesday, show that 53 percent of Americans now say the U.S. should undertake friendly cooperation and engagement with China, up from 40 percent in 2024.

    China and the U.S. should be partners and friends, Xi said. “That is what history has taught us and what reality needs.”

    Given different national conditions, the two countries do not always see eye to eye with each other and it is normal for the two leading economies of the world to have frictions now and then, he said.

    In the face of winds, waves and challenges, President Xi said, the two heads of state should stay on the right course, navigate through the complex landscape and ensure the steady sailing forward of the giant ship of China-U.S. relations.

    Trump said the U.S. and China have always had a “fantastic” relationship and it will be even better. “We will make both China and the U.S. even better,” he said.

    China is the biggest partner of the United States, Trump said. “Together, our two countries can get many great things done for the world and have many years of success.”

  • SNC Builds a Global Digital Trust Infrastructure for Agriculture, Ushering in a New Era of Digitalized Farming

    In 2025, the global agricultural ecosystem is undergoing a revolutionary transformation. Initiated by Zhonghe Zhixiang (Hong Kong) Technology Co., Ltd. and led by investment from the CoinP Foundation, Shennong Chain (SNC) is leveraging blockchain technology to drive digital transformation in agriculture, reshaping the management, circulation, and financialization of agricultural assets. SNC is committed to building a global digital trust infrastructure for agriculture, enabling asset tokenization, smart contract governance, and green financial innovation, connecting farmers, enterprises, capital, and ecosystem participants, and promoting deep integration between agriculture and finance.

    The CoinP Foundation, a non-profit organization established by CoinP Exchange, aims to advance the global digital financial ecosystem and support innovative blockchain applications across multiple industries. Since its inception, the Foundation has been dedicated to the development of digital asset trading platforms, decentralized finance (DeFi) services, and cross-chain payment systems. As a key strategic investor in SNC, the CoinP Foundation not only provides strong capital support for SNC’s technology development and market expansion but also contributes extensive industry expertise and international resources. Through this collaboration, the Foundation seeks to accelerate the digital transformation of agriculture and inject new technological and financial momentum into the global agricultural sector.

    Moreover, SNC has received strategic investment from several renowned global institutions, including the AGCO Agriculture Foundation and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD). The AGCO Foundation recognizes SNC’s innovative contributions to agricultural RWA (Real World Assets), which will support digital transformation in developing countries, while IFAD values SNC’s potential in promoting agricultural carbon credit trading and incentives for sustainable production. Through these global partnerships, SNC is poised to drive sustainable agricultural development and inject new vitality into the global agricultural economy.

    Global Opportunities in Agricultural Digitalization

    According to the World Bank, the total value of global agricultural assets exceeds USD 30 trillion. However, less than 2% of these assets have been digitized. For decades, agricultural assets have remained in a state of “high value, low liquidity, and low trust.” The sector continues to face challenges such as unclear asset ownership, limited capital access, and fragmented data—hindering modernization and sustainable green development.

    SNC seizes this opportunity by leveraging blockchain technology to digitize and circulate agricultural assets, breaking through the bottlenecks of traditional agricultural systems and promoting the global standardization of agricultural RWAs. Through blockchain’s immutability, automated execution of smart contracts, and decentralized governance, SNC provides a new foundational trust infrastructure for the agricultural industry.

    A Breakthrough Trust Mechanism

    Agriculture is traditionally characterized by high uncertainty and low trust. Data from cultivation to distribution is fragmented and easily altered. SNC’s blockchain-basedAgriTrust Protocol records full-chain agricultural data—production, supply chain information, product certification—on-chain, establishing a transparent and verifiable digital trust network. This not only enhances data reliability but also simplifies the connection between farmers and capital markets, significantly reducing transaction costs and financial access barriers.

    SNC strategically integrates green finance and the carbon economy as dual drivers. As global carbon-neutral initiatives reshape financial markets, agriculture—being a core carbon sink—gains new economic value through carbon reduction and capture activities. By recording green agricultural practices on-chain, SNC creates a digital certificate-based incentive system. Activities such as carbon farming, crop rotation, and vegetation restoration generate economic rewards, unlocking new revenue streams for agriculture and providing trusted ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) data to global investors.

    End-to-End Ecosystem Architecture

    SNC’s public blockchain ecosystem includes several core modules, each providing specialized functionality to ensure sustainable growth and global scalability:

    • Data Ownership & Authenticity: Blockchain-based digital confirmation of agricultural assets (land, crops, equipment), ensuring transparent and traceable ownership and transfer records.
    • Asset Issuance & Tokenization: Traditional agricultural assets are tokenized into tradable digital assets, enabling financing, trading, and insurance.
    • Financial Services & DeFi: SNC integrates DeFi protocols to provide lending, trading, insurance, and other financial services, breaking the limitations of traditional finance.
    • Ecosystem Governance (DAO): Decentralized governance empowers community members to participate in decision-making, ensuring autonomy and long-term sustainability.
    • Carbon Economy & Sustainability: SNC offers transparent and verifiable blockchain support for carbon credit transactions, enabling agricultural carbon emissions and reductions to be efficiently monetized.

    Future Outlook

    SNC aims to become the global trust infrastructure for agriculture, enabling the digitalization, assetization, and financialization of agricultural systems. Over the next five years, SNC plans to establish multi-regional node networks across Asia, Africa, and Latin America, promote the formulation of global agricultural RWA standards, and enhance cross-border data interoperability within the Belt and Road framework.

    The success of SNC will not be limited to the agricultural sector—it will help build a newdigital agricultural value internet within the global economy, providing farmers worldwide with a fairer, more transparent, and more efficient development model.

  • Hongmen Digital Asset (HMC) to Officially Launch Worldwide on October 30!

    Connecting Chinese Communities Across the Globe, Revitalizing a Century-Old Brotherhood in the Digital Era

    A New Mission for a Century-Old Legacy in the Digital Age

    As the world fully enters a new era of digital civilization, frontier technologies such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and digital assets are irreversibly reshaping the global economic landscape and the structure of social organizations. In this transformative era, traditional Chinese associations face major challenges—aging organizational structures, scattered global resources, and breaks in cultural inheritance. The question of how to adapt and rejuvenate has become a shared concern among Chinese communities worldwide.

    As one of the oldest and most influential Chinese organizations in history, the Hongmen (Triad) has endured centuries of trials and tribulations while holding steadfast to its core belief of “Eliminating evil and upholding righteousness.” Across different historical periods, Hongmen brothers have written remarkable chapters—from aiding the overthrow of the Qing dynasty and supporting the Xinhai Revolution, to resisting foreign invasions and contributing to national rejuvenation. Their commitment and courage have been forever etched in the annals of Chinese history.

    Today, as the digital wave sweeps across the world, how can the spirit of loyalty and righteousness shine anew? How can Hongmen unite globally in the new era? The emergence of HMC (Hongmen Digital Asset) is Hongmen’s solemn answer to the call of our times—a bridge connecting heritage and innovation.

    Chee Kung Tong Leads the Way – Launching the HMC Initiative

    At this pivotal historical moment, Chee Kung Tong, together with major Hongmen branches and leaders from Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Europe, and the Americas, jointly initiated the Hongmen Digital Asset (HMC) and its global ecosystem development program. Led by Mr. Xie Tianlong, the Grand Leader of Chee Kung Tong, and supported by prominent Hongmen representatives, this initiative gathers worldwide consensus to form a new collaborative platform linked through digital assets.

    The HMC token is not merely a cryptocurrency—it is a blockchain-based certificate of cultural belonging, economic cooperation, and organizational identity. The project operates under a dual-core structure—a Charity System and an Entrepreneurship System—to create a positive internal cycle of “Mutual Aid Promotes Growth, Growth Reinforces Mutual Aid.” It aims to use modern technology to rejuvenate Hongmen’s traditional values and express them in a contemporary form.

    In the Global Hongmen Assembly, Mr. Xie Tianlong stated solemnly:“The birth of HMC is not only a breakthrough in finance, but a revival of Hongmen’s cultural legacy in the digital age. It will immortalize the spirit of loyalty and righteousness on the blockchain, empowering global Chinese communities through digital technology to promote development and shared prosperity.”

    With joint efforts from Hongmen organizations worldwide, the HMC ecosystem has completed full-chain deployment and multiple rounds of stability testing, officially entering its launch countdown.

    Core Modules Ready for Global Launch

    The public mainnet is operating stably.

    The decentralized identity system (HID) has been integrated.

    Dual-fund DApps for entrepreneurship and charity are open for interaction.

    The cultural NFT platform has been launched in its initial phase.

    Node allocations for global Hongmen branches are complete.

    On the technical side, the Hongmen blockchain has passed multiple stress tests, data recovery drills, and node redundancy setups. All key smart contracts have been audited by professional third parties such as CertiK and SlowMist. Core asset custody adopts multi-signature and cold/hot wallet separation to ensure security.

    Currently, the system runs stably—on-chain transaction confirmations take less than 3 seconds, TPS exceeds 3000, and smart contract performance meets mainnet requirements. With technical, operational, and compliance systems in place, HMC is now ready for global activation, opening the next chapter of “Global Hongmen Co-creation and Shared Prosperity.”

Supported by blockchain technology, Hongmen’s governance, resource structure, and cultural framework will all be rejuvenated—ushering in the true Digital Hongmen, Global Hongmen.

    On a societal level, HMC presents a replicable model combining charity and entrepreneurship—realizing transparent philanthropy and cooperative growth through blockchain, promoting sustainable industrial development, and digitally embodying traditional Chinese virtues of righteousness, mutual aid, and balance between morality and profit. The ancient Hongmen spirit is being reborn in technological form, illuminating the shared spiritual homeland of Chinese people worldwide.

    Faith as the Sail, Technology as the Vessel – A New Voyage for the Century-Old Hongmen

    “From swords to code, from brotherhood to blockchain”—this is not just a leap in time, but a continuation of faith.

    Hongmen now sails forward, with technology as its vessel and faith as its sail, into a new digital era for global Chinese communities.

    The creation of the Hongmen Coin (HMC) is both a response to technological transformation and an expression of Hongmen’s cultural consciousness and collective vision for the future. The ultimate goal of the HMC ecosystem is to unite Hongmen members worldwide through decentralization, building a digital ecosystem integrating economy, culture, and charity, and transforming Hongmen into a global, service-oriented digital fraternity.

    Within this ecosystem, every member holding HMC will possess a digital identity, economic rights, and a cultural mission—becoming not only participants in value creation, but also inheritors of tradition and contributors to community governance.

    Holding HMC means lifelong brotherhood; joining the Digital Hongmen means co-creating a shared future!

    With the official launch of HMC just around the corner, a new digital chapter of Hongmen is opening—
    A new history is being written.
