29 U.S. college students and faculty representatives taking part in the "2026 Inaugural U.S. College Student Pickleball Cultural Exchange China Tour" recently arrived in Guangzhou, kicking off their visit at Asia's largest flying car company. Staff demonstrated how the "Land Aircraft Carrier" separates and reconnects, and the CEO personally piloted the flying car in a vertical takeoff—an experience that left a lasting impression on the American youth. They described it as transformative technology that could one day give ordinary people the chance to become "pilots."

The itinerary also featured pickleball matches, a taste of Guangzhou's signature cuisine, and a visit to Chimelong Safari Park to see its internet-famous giant pandas, offering the American youth a real, multi-dimensional, and vivid picture of China.

China plans to invite 100,000 American youth to China for exchanges over the next five years, deepening mutual understanding in science and technology, culture, and development, while strengthening youth exchanges and friendship between the two countries.
