China's network construction Jobs and local businesses

2026

CCTV's complete six-network feature describes computing and shipping construction changing local livelihoods. Ulanqab is described as one of eight computing hubs with over 100 data-center projects and more than 20 computing companies establishing operations this year. Chen Gang recalls training and infrastructure work and his promotion last month; instructor Ao Demu and trainee Wang Kaige discuss demand and new skills. At Letianxi, Three Gorges New Shipping Channel construction is said to have brought 188 new businesses over four months, including 60 in September. Han Qingmu has converted his old home into a newly opened inn. Zhou Yun and his wife have moved there and are renovating a riverside café; transplanted osmanthus trees came from a relocated village. The café remains in development. Closing references to remote-island microgrids and Pinglu Canal cargo illustrate the broader network theme without establishing separate project milestones.

CCTV reports more than 20 computing companies establishing operations in Ulanqab, Inner Mongolia, in 2026, against the background of more than 100 data-center projects at a national computing hub. Chen Gang describes training and data-center work, with his promotion dated to the preceding month. Instructor Ao Demu and trainee Wang Kaige discuss hiring demand and new skills. These are reported local developments and individual testimony, not nationwide employment findings or newly completed dates for all earlier projects.
