China Decode: Why China is Sorting Kids into “Genius Camps”
In this episode of China Decode, Alice Han and James Kynge dig into China’s so-called “genius camps” — the small, brutally selective talent pipeline behind many of the country’s biggest tech and AI breakthroughs. Then they turn to rising nuclear tensions after the U.S. accuses China of having conducted a secret nuclear test in 2020, just as the last major U.S.-Russia arms control treaty expires. How credible are the claims, and what does this mean for global nuclear negotiations? Plus, China’s underground club scene is roaring back after years of pandemic closures, as global music crosses borders in new ways — including Bad Bunny topping the charts in China.
