1. The World's First Ultra-High Parallel Optical Computing Integrated Chip "Meteor-1"

The Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Acad1emy of Sciences, has made a breakthrough in solving the problem of "high-density information parallel processing on optical chips". They developed the ultra-high parallel optical computing integrated chip "Meteor-1", which realizes an optical computing prototype verification system with a parallelism of >100. The relevant research results, titled Parallel Optical Computing Capable of 100-Wavelength Multiplexing, were published as a cover paper in Light: Rapid Research.

2. China's New - generation Manned Spacecraft "Mengzhou" Achieves a Complete Success in Zero - altitude Escape Flight Test

On June 17th, at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, the manned spacecraft "Mengzhou" successfully carried out a zero - altitude escape flight test. At 12:30, the escape engine of the "Mengzhou" manned spacecraft was successfully ignited. The spacecraft - tower assembly rose into the air under the thrust of a solid - fuel engine. About 20 seconds later, after reaching the predetermined altitude, the re - entry module was safely separated from the escape tower, and the parachute was successfully deployed. At 12:32, the re - entry module landed safely in the predetermined area of the test landing zone by means of airbag buffering, and the test achieved a complete success.

3. Global First High - Orbit Commercial Relay Satellite Project Launched in Luohu, Shenzhen

The construction and operation of the world's first high - orbit commercial relay satellite have settled in Luohu, with the establishment of a 5G communication technology R&D center and an overseas operation center. This satellite is equivalent to a "signal base station" erected in space. Its special significance lies in its "commercial" attribute - marking a key step in the "infrastructureization" of the aerospace industry: shifting from government - led to market - driven, meeting the explosive growth of space data demand with lower costs and higher flexibility.

4. Shanghai Completes Over 14,000 5G-A 3CC (3 Component Carrier) Base Stations

Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatization, announced that the city has built over 14,000 5G-A 3CC (3 Component Carrier) base stations, achieving coverage in key areas to promote the construction of a global hub for information technology innovation.

Shanghai's broadband users have maintained the highest download speeds nationwide for ten consecutive years, highlighting its leading position in 5G development. Going forward, the city will deepen its development through three strategic initiatives: consolidating foundations, integrating for empowerment, and leading through innovation.

5.?025 Mobile World Congress (Shanghai) Opens

On June 18th, the three - day 2025 Mobile World Congress (Shanghai), abbreviated as "MWC Shanghai", kicked off. With the theme of "Converge Connect Create", this exhibition brings together global innovative enterprises and policymakers, deeply discusses how the integration of 5G, artificial intelligence and Internet of Things technologies is reshaping the industrial ecosystem, and showcases China's innovation capabilities as the world's largest 5G market and a leader in the mobile ecosystem.

MWC Shanghai 2025 is hosted by the Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA). The opening ceremony of this session is co - hosted by John Hoffman, CEO of GSMA, and Si Han, President of GSMA Greater China.
