Economic concerns surfaced through reports of plummeting EV exports to Europe due to tariffs, while local governments received new guidance on infrastructure investment approaches. The return of China-born biologist Wang Cunyu from the US received attention, fitting into the ongoing narrative of scientific talent repatriation.
