一 | (ECNS) --“Going global” has emerged as one of the key themes of the 2026 World Robot Conference, which is being held in Beijing from Aug. 19 to 23. At the booth of Beijing-based Yunji Technology, visitors can explore a range of practical applications, including smart hotel services, automated laundry retail cabinets, latte art coffee stations and freshly cooked noodle stations. Yunji Technology Chief Product Officer Duan Yanbiao told China News Service that the company’s robots have already been deployed in more than 20 countries and regions, covering major markets across Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea, the Middle East, Europe and the United States. The company serves more than 40,000 corporate customers, while revenue from its overseas business surged by more than 90% last year. Another Chinese robotics company, Leju Robotics, said it began expanding overseas around 2018 and has since built international teams and distribution networks. Its desktop educational humanoid robots, mid-sized entertainment humanoid robots and full-size humanoid robots have all obtained international certifications, with partners now established in Southeast Asia, the Middle East and other markets. Global expansion is also a major focus for Guangzhou-based CVTE. The company said its overseas own-brand business grew 54.83% year on year in 2025. It has established subsidiaries in 10 countries and built localized marketing and service teams across 29 countries and regions, while its products and services now reach more than 140 countries and regions worldwide. The company has also developed local production capacity in Vietnam and Mexico to strengthen the resilience and flexibility of its global supply chain.

Trade via the China-Laos Railway surpassed 20 billion yuan ($2.96 billion) in the first seven months of the year, up 29.9 percent year-on-year, customs data showed. The infrastructure project is further expanding its spillover effects on trade and cooperation among ASEAN members.
As the railway continues to serve as a new engine for regional economic connectivity, the cross-border infrastructure project is expanding its cargo portfolio and injecting fresh momentum into trade and development across ASEAN economies, Chinese analysts said.
Since its launch in 2021, the railway has handled more than 94 billion yuan worth of cross-border cargo, with the range of transported goods expanding from more than 10 categories at the initial stage of operation to more than 3,900, including new-energy vehicles (NEVs), tropical fruits, temperate vegetables and traditional Chinese medicine.
The line connects 19 countries and regions and provides sustained momentum for regional trade cooperation, the data showed.
To date, the China-Laos Railway has served more than 7,000 foreign trade operators in China.
In recent months, as ASEAN members enter the peak season for fruit exports via the China-Laos Railway, agricultural products from countries along the route are gaining wider access to the Chinese market, while advanced Chinese industrial products are emerging as new drivers of cross-border trade growth, with the cargo mix continuously evolving to better meet market demand.
In the first half of 2026, imports of tropical fruits via the China-Laos Railway totaled 4.22 billion yuan, up 25.8 percent year-on-year, according to customs data cited by the Xinhua News Agency on July 22.
Foreign trade of NEVs, lithium batteries and photovoltaic products via the railway totaled 2.14 billion yuan in the first half of 2026, up 348.5 percent year-on-year, emerging as a new highlight of cross-border trade growth, the report showed.
The continued expansion of cargo categories reflects the transformation of the corridor from a single-purpose cross-border transport route into a key link connecting regional industrial chains.
The differentiated two-way trade structure reflects the complementary strengths of economies along the route, matching their resource advantages and industrial needs, Bian Yongzu, executive deputy editor-in-chief of Modernization of Management magazine, told the Global Times.
"Combined with multimodal transport services and streamlined customs measures, the China-Laos Railway has evolved beyond a cross-border transport route into a practical platform for resource complementarity, industrial coordination, and greater connectivity among Lancang-Mekong countries," Bian added.
