China's only high-end English radio interview program, featuring events that shape not only China, but the world as well.
What is the sharing economy? Well, perhaps many people have no idea. But here are a few things that would quickly help you understand what we are talking about: Uber, Airbnb, as well as Didi, a popular Chinese car-hailing app.Sharing surplus resources with others might be human nature, but with the development of the internet and mobile technology, this human nature has given birth to a particular market model.China is no exception to this trend. The "sharing economy" first gained official recognition when it was mentioned by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang during last year's Summer Davos meeting.
