Mabel Lu Miao is a Chinese scholar on globalization and China, as well as a leader of a top Chinese thinktank.
Miao earned her Ph.D. from Beijing Normal University, and did postdoctoral work at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. [1]
Miao is widely quoted in Chinese media. In the People's Daily , she observed China's Belt and Road Initiative brought in a wave of international students in China, [2] which she found to be positive. In China Youth Daily , she believes Chinese schools should teach lessons on "strengthening mutual respect and understanding of cultural differences," so as to "avoid populism, nationalism, extreme individualism, and international terrorism." [3] In Beijing Youth Daily , she argues for increasing the number of foreigners resident in China by lowering Chinese requirement to intern, work, live, and acquire permanent residence in China. [4]
Miao advocates higher participation and influence of women in public life, saying "women shouldn't talk about only soft power, but also hard power" and activities by her thinktank must involve women as much as possible. [5] [6] She warns against "increasing inequality as a result of technology innovation, despite that the social, political, and economic status of women and female children have improved." [7]
A Munich Young Leader at the Munich Security Conference, Miao is co-founder, vice president, and secretary-general of the Center for China and Globalization (CCG). [8] At CCG, she founded the Global Young Leadership Dialogue (GYLD) that promotes exchanges between foreign young achievers and the Chinese mainland, the first of its kind in China. Xi Jinping, Chinese President, sent a letter to GYLD in 2021. [9] [10] Foreign dignitaries who have applauded the GYLD include Herman Achille Van Rompuy, former Prime Minister of Belgium and President of the European Council, and Pascal Lamy, former Director-General of the World Trade Organization. [11] She led participants of the GYLD to the United Nations in China on the 77th United Nations Day. [12]
Despite China-EU relations tanking, she co-wrote a journal article insisting there's large room for cooperation between the two. [13]

The Miao are a group of linguistically related peoples living in Southern China and Southeast Asia, who are recognized by the government of China as one of the 56 official ethnic groups. The Miao live primarily in the mountains of southern China. Their homeland encompasses the provinces of Guizhou, Yunnan, Sichuan, Hubei, Hunan, Guangxi, Guangdong, and Hainan. Some sub-groups of the Miao, most notably the Hmong people, have migrated out of China into Southeast Asia. Following the communist takeover of Laos in 1975, a large group of Hmong refugees resettled in several Western nations, mainly in the United States, France, and Australia.
The Hmong–Mien languages are a highly tonal language family of southern China and northern Southeast Asia. They are spoken in mountainous areas of southern China, including Guizhou, Hunan, Yunnan, Sichuan, Guangxi, Guangdong and Hubei provinces; the speakers of these languages are predominantly "hill people", in contrast to the neighboring Han Chinese, who have settled the more fertile river valleys.
National Key Universities previously referred to universities recognized as prestigious and which received a high level of support from the central government of the People's Republic of China. The term is no longer in official use by 1990s. The term "zhòngdiǎn" 重点, translated here as "key," in this phrase can also be translated as "major," "priority," or "focal." The term "National Key Universities" then became defunct, and these schools are now normally referred to as "Double First Class Universities“, based on the China state Double First-Class Construction. However, it remains part of the vernacular, as evidenced by some Chinese media articles which still refer to "National Key Universities".
The Upper Xiajiadian culture was a Bronze Age archaeological culture in Northeast China derived from the Eurasian steppe bronze tradition. It is associated with the Donghu of Chinese history.

Nan'ao One (南澳一号) is a 25.5 m (84 ft), 7.0 m (23 ft) wide Chinese merchant ship that sank in the Sandianjin waters off the coast of Nan'ao Island, about 5.6 nautical miles from Swatow (Shantou), Guangdong, Ming China. Accidentally discovered by a group of local fishermen in May 2007, it is currently considered the first late Ming dynasty (1368–1644) ship ever found and probably the only one from the reign of the Wanli Emperor (1573–1620) that China has discovered to date. It was likely on the route from the port of Yuegang in Fujian to Manila, Spanish Philippines.

It has been described by different authors as a relative of Bai or an early split from Old Chinese. The autonym is. According to Lu (2022), Caijia speakers in Xingfa 兴发乡, Hezhang County refer to their language as.

Yuegang was a seaport situated at the estuary of the Jiulong River in present-day Haicheng town in Zhangzhou, Fujian, China. Known as a smuggling hub since the early Ming dynasty, Yuegang rose to prominence in the 16th century as the Ming government cracked down on other hubs of private maritime trade, deemed illegal at the time due to the isolationist haijin laws. When the prohibitions were lifted in 1567, Yuegang was designated as the port in Fujian from where it is legal to trade overseas. Since then, it flourished as the Chinese terminus of the trans-Pacific trade carried by the Manila galleon through its trade with the Spanish Philippines until it was overshadowed by Xiamen in the 17th century.
Yellow River civilization, Huanghe civilization or Huanghe Valley civilization, Hwan‐huou civilization is an ancient Chinese civilization that prospered in the middle and lower basin of the Yellow River. Agriculture was started in the flood plain of the Yellow River, and before long, through flood control and the irrigation of the Yellow River, cities were developed and political power found reinforcement. One of the "four major civilizations of the ancient world", it is often included in textbooks of East Asian history, but the idea of including only the Yellow River civilization as one of the four biggest ancient civilizations has become outdated as a result of the discovery of other early cultures in China, such as the Yangtze and Liao civilizations. The area saw the Yangshao and Longshan cultures of the Neolithic era and developed into the bronze ware culture of the Shang and Zhou dynasties.
The Double Sixth Festival is a Chinese traditional festival, the annual festival takes place on the sixth day of the sixth month of the Chinese calendar. The festival has different names among different areas in China and varies in practices within Chinese ethnic groups. The most recognized official name is Tiankuang Festival (天贶节) announced by Emperor Zhenzong of the Song dynasty, meaning the gift or reward from heaven. The most well-known custom is to bring all outfits, and books out and put them under the sunlight, people believe that doing this would not only prevent things becoming mildewed or damaged by worms but also brings fortune to themselves. The old saying from the Ming dynasty in China classifies this behavior observed in different social classes: "At June 6, scholars will dry their books in sun, women will dry their clothes in sun and farmers will pray for their harvest." The festival has lost some of its significance in China because of changes in social structure and reasons like farming technology improvement.

In 2004, news reports emerged that China was developing a new "IPv9" technology to replace the existing Internet Protocol. This appears to have been a proposal to link Internet addressing with Chinese 10-digit telephone numbers. The protocol was a research project of the Institute of Chemical Engineering (Shanghai), and there was little evidence that it gained any real-world adoption.
