China Telecom Concludes MWC 2026 with Outstanding Success

BARCELONA, SPAIN -  Media OutReach Newswire - 9 March 2026 - From March 2 to 5, the 2026 Mobile World Congress (MWC) was grandly held in Barcelona, Spain. China Telecom attended the Congress with two high-profile keynote speeches, an immersive interactive exhibition booth, and a Low-Altitude Economy Launch Event, presenting a panoramic showcase of its strategic vision and innovative achievements in transforming into a key promoter in the AI era. Having also won multiple prestigious international awards in the telecommunications field, China Telecom earned wide attention and high recognition from international operators, ecosystem partners, and global media with its hard-core technological strength and open, collaborative spirit. 
             
       China Telecom MWC 2026     
     
 Two Keynote Speeches Set the Tone: Charting a New Vision for Transformation in the AI Era  
  On March 2, China Telecom President Liu Guiqing attended the Congress opening ceremony and delivered a keynote speech entitled "The Transformation of a Large Telco to a Key Promoter in AI Era." Liu Guiqing stated that China Telecom is fully embracing AI and advancing its corporate strategy toward the "Cloudification, Digital Transformation and AI for Good" upgrade, consistently placing technological innovation at the core of its corporate strategy and driving the company's transformation from a traditional telecommunications operator into a technology-oriented enterprise. 
  At the Congress, Liu Guiqing put forward five key judgements on the direction of operator development in the AI era: First, 6G standard innovation and network deployment must fully account for the rapid development of AI. Second, cloud-network integration will play an ever greater role in the AI era. Third, AI security governance will become a mandatory topic for global operators, and is also a watershed defining the strength of operational and service capabilities in the intelligent era. Fourth, computing-power and electricity coordination capability will become the key to the sustainable development of intelligent computing infrastructure. Fifth, the flourishing development of AI applications requires operators to open up and cooperate with greater force. 
  On March 3, Liu Guiqing attended the World Broadband Association (WBBA) Broadband Development Congress and delivered a keynote speech entitled "From Connectivity to Intelligence: A New Era for Cloud-Network Broadband." Liu Guiqing noted that AI is fully advancing into the Agentic AI stage — characterized by autonomous execution and intelligent collaboration — heralding the dawn of an Agentic Internet. How to accurately seize the transformational opportunities driven by Agentic AI has become a shared challenge for telecommunications operators worldwide. 
  Liu Guiqing emphasized that China Telecom is willing to join hands with WBBA and all industry stakeholders, with Agentic AI as the core engine, to drive the iterative upgrade of new digital information infrastructure. Three proposals were put forward: First, to strengthen technological innovation in collaboration with WBBA, leading the transformation of new digital information infrastructure. Second, to deepen industrial cooperation through WBBA, expanding the value of new digital information infrastructure. Third, to leverage WBBA to bridge the global digital and intelligent divide, elevate the standard of global cloud-network services, lower the threshold for applying intelligent technologies, and ensure the dividends of Agentic AI development benefit a broader population. 
  Multiple Awards, Crowning Honours: International Recognition Sets a New Benchmark  
  On March 4, at the Global Mobile Awards (GLOMO Awards) — widely regarded as the "Oscars of the mobile communications industry" — China Telecom claimed an impressive haul of four accolades. The EasyOn 5G-A-RobotNet solution, developed jointly with ZTE, won the "Best Private Network Solution Award"; the direct-to-high-orbit satellite connectivity project for mobile phones, co-developed with Huawei, won the "Best Non-Terrestrial Network Solution Award"; the "Green Pepper Programme" in Lancang County, Pu'er, jointly submitted with the YouCheng Foundation and Huawei, won the "Best Mobile Innovation for Enhancing the Lives of Children and Young People Award"; and the "5G-A Empowering a New Model of Wireless Concert Livestreaming" project, developed together with ZTE and other industry partners, won the "Best Event Activation Award." The multiple awards won underscore China Telecom's comprehensive strength across technological innovation, social responsibility, and commercial application. 
  During the Congress, the GSMA Foundry Awards Ceremony was held with great fanfare. Three innovative proposals jointly developed by China Telecom with Huawei and ZTE stood out from the competition, capturing a total of four awards across two categories of the Foundry Excellence Awards 2026 and the GSMA Foundry Innovation GLOMO Award. Specifically, the "Mobile Network for Thriving AI" project, developed jointly with Huawei, received the Intelligent Networks & AI-Driven Infrastructure Award under the GSMA Foundry Excellence Awards; the "5G-Advanced Facilitates Multi-Robot Collaboration" solution, co-developed with ZTE, won the GSMA Foundry "Enterprise Innovation & New Revenue Models" award; and the "Relieving the Pressure on Physicians" solution has claimed both the GSMA Foundry "Cross-Cutting Excellence" Award and the GSMA Foundry Innovation GLOMO Award, demonstrating China Telecom's globally leading capabilities in the convergence of 5G-A and AI technologies for industry applications. 
  One Exhibition Booth, One Launch Event: Co-Drawing a New Vision of Intelligence in the AI Era  
  During this year's MWC, China Telecom's exhibition booth was meticulously arranged under the theme "Embracing the Intelligent Era with New AI Infra." From the stunning debut of the Xirang 2.0 "Triless Three-Independence Architecture," to the "Xing Xiao Chen Intelligent Agent"'s multi-task intent understanding and central control capabilities; from the quantum infrastructure covering over 40 major cities across China, to the panoramic vision of a low-altitude intelligent network and satellite communications spanning "air, space, ground, and sea" — China Telecom showcased four major infrastructure pillars, namely "AI + Intelligent Cloud," "AI + Quantum," "AI + Low-Altitude," and "AI + Satellite Communications," outlining the foundation of the intelligent era with a forward-looking vision and attracting numerous senior executives and professionals from international operators for in-depth exchanges. 
  On March 2, China Telecom Unmanned Technology held a Low-Altitude Economy Launch Event, unveiling China Telecom's AI-powered "1+1+4+N" Low-Altitude Economy Capability System to the world. Leveraging key technologies including 5G-Advanced (5G-A), RedCap, millimeter-wave sensing, and Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC), China Telecom has built an intelligent connected network with deep integration of "connectivity, sensing, computing, and platform," forming a full-stack capability system covering low-altitude infrastructure, operational supervision, security protection, and intelligent operations. To date, the Capability System has been deployed in over 60 cities across China, generating more than 1,000 application scenarios, and has achieved application deployment in regions including West Africa, demonstrating mature large-scale rollout capabilities. The event also saw the launch of four digital platforms — Xingyun, Xingdun, Xingxun, and Xinghan — along with the "Tianqing" 5G-A RedCap Low-Altitude Module, delivering integrated and replicable system solutions to help low-altitude flight "fly safely and fly efficiently." 
  Throughout the four-day exhibition, technological depth and the warmth of everyday life blended perfectly at the China Telecom booth. This year, the booth featured a dedicated AI Live TechShow, where performers presented China Telecom's AI technologies and products woven into everyday life scenes in a lighthearted and entertaining way: the eSurf IntelliHub captured real-time footage of mischievous pets at home; the eSurf AI health & wellness companion robot precisely reminded users about their medication; the eSurf AI sports companion robot dog danced in time to the music... Every performance drew crowds of visitors who stopped to watch. 
  The "AI + Chinese Opera Face-Changing" interactive experience, powered by the Xingchen Large Model and image algorithms, allowed overseas visitors to instantly complete a Chinese opera costume transformation. Exquisite gifts given out on site — including Xing Xiao Chen magnetic snap figurines and panda blind box plushies — proved enormously popular with Congress attendees. This cross-language beauty of AI came with a very real sense of "something to take home," leaving everyone with wonderful memories. 
  During the exhibition, mainstream media, industry media, and overseas outlets provided comprehensive coverage of the China Telecom booth through livestreaming, exclusive interviews, articles, and other formats, sparking extensive attention and discussion, with related topics trending continuously. On March 3, well-known media hosts took up position at the China Telecom booth and launched a global "Exhibition Exploration" livestream, offering tens of millions of online viewers an immersive, first-person experience of the cutting-edge technologies, igniting wave after wave of online buzz. China Telecom's AI products and technological capabilities successfully achieved breakthrough viral reach well beyond the industry. 
  This MWC 2026 journey was not only a vivid demonstration of China Telecom's transformation into a key promoter in the AI era, but also a profound dialogue with global partners on technology and development. Standing at the forefront of the intelligent era, China Telecom will continue to deepen its "Cloudification, Digital Transformation and AI for Good" strategy, responding to the questions of the times with forward-looking technological innovation, and moving forward hand in hand with partners in an open and mutually beneficial spirit, jointly ushering in a brighter new era of AI.

OPPO Announces Global Launch of Find N6 on March 17th,  Redefining Foldables with Zero-Feel Crease Engineered for Lasting Flatness

SHENZHEN, CHINA -  Media OutReach Newswire - 9 March 2026 - OPPO, the world's leading smart device brand, today announced the global launch of its latest foldable flagship, OPPO Find N6. Set to debut on March 17, 2026, in its new Binhai Bay Campus, China, Find N6 is designed to completely transform the foldable experience with its revolutionary Zero-Feel Crease1. 
             
       OPPO Find N6 Global Launch is set on March 17th     
     
 "The OPPO Find N series has always led the foldable market by being on the front end of innovative technologies," said Pete Lau, Senior Vice President and Chief Product Officer at OPPO. "With Find N6, we have achieved a major breakthrough in hinge architecture and display materials. By introducing the industry's first Zero-Feel Crease, we are opening up new possibilities for what a foldable smartphone experience can be." 
  Since the first days of foldable technology, screen creases have always been a key user concern, taking something away from the natural appeal of foldable devices' fuller displays. The OPPO Find N Series has relentlessly pursued solutions. In 2021, the original Find N reshaped the foldable experience with its pioneering waterdrop Flexion Hinge, turning deep, noticeable creases into something subtle and shallow. Since then, each successive generation has refined this technology, leading the industry in both visual and tactile smoothness. 
  Find N6 marks a leap forward with its Zero-Feel Crease, allowing users to be fully immersed in an expansive, large-screen experience with seamless visuals and smooth touch response. And even better, it's built to stay that way, keeping flat and smooth even after years of use. 
  Building on its predecessor's ultra-slim legacy, Find N6 is among the thinnest book-style foldables on the market. It rivals conventional bar-style flagship smartphones in ergonomics, offering a comfortable, fatigue-free grip even during extended use. The refined, symmetrical Cosmos Ring houses the all-new  200MP Hasselblad Ultra-Clear Camera, delivering professional-grade imaging without the typical bulk of a massive camera protrusion. 
  Find N6 will be available in two stunning colorways: the deep, classic Stellar Titanium and the vibrant Blossom Orange. To achieve a perfectly uniform rose gold finish on the titanium alloy hinge casing, Find N6 in Blossom Orange features Gold Hinge Trim that utilizes a precise gilding technique incorporating genuine gold, adding a touch of timeless luxury to its durable titanium frame. 
  To further boost productivity, Find N6 supports  OPPO AI Pen so users can take full advantage of the bigger screen. More than just a stylus, it is an AI-powered tool that turns Find N6 into a true mobile workstation, helping users accomplish more with integrated intelligent features. 
  Stay tuned to discover more about OPPO Find N6 at the upcoming global launch. 
  
   
   
     1 "Zero-Feel Crease" refers to a visual effect where the crease is typically not visible from most viewing angles and under normal use conditions. It does not mean the crease is physically absent. Visibility may vary depending on individual perception, lighting, and specific content displayed.

1win Arranges Private Charter Flights for VIP Clients Leaving the UAE Amid Aviation Disruptions

DUBAI, UAE -  Media OutReach Newswire - 9 March 2026 - As aviation  disruptions continue in the Gulf region following reports of a drone strike near Dubai International Airport, global company  1win has organized a private evacuation operation for its VIP clients currently in the United Arab Emirates. 
       
 "Safety first," the  Owner of 1win commented on X. "When airports in Dubai closed, and many were stranded, not knowing how to get out, in less than a day, we organized the evacuation of our VIP clients on all private jets, so they could return home safely without waiting for the situation to stabilize. We are here to support you in any situation." 
  Commercial aviation in the region has been heavily disrupted. The airline Emirates temporarily suspended flights to and from Dubai International Airport, urging passengers not to travel to the airport until the security situation stabilizes. Several international routes have also been cancelled in the coming weeks as airlines reassess operational risks. 
  To provide additional flexibility for VIP clients who were unable or unwilling to rely on disrupted commercial flights, 1win coordinated private aviation options with several international charter operators. The initiative focused on offering direct departures from airports in Dubai and Abu Dhabi to destinations across Latin America, Asia, and the CIS region. 
  Industry reports  indicate that demand for business aviation in the UAE has surged sharply as travelers seek alternatives to disrupted commercial flights. Several aviation outlets and international media  reported a significant spike in private jet charters and sharply rising prices for departures from Dubai, reflecting the growing demand for alternative travel options during the crisis. 
  1win's charter program remains ongoing, with additional aircraft arranged depending on client travel needs.

CGTN: How China builds consensus, boosts development through consultative democracy

BEIJING, CHINA -  Media OutReach Newswire - 7 March 2026 - CGTN published an article on the opening meeting of the fourth session of the 14th CPPCC National Committee. Reviewing the work of the CPPCC National Committee in 2025 in areas like its consultative and deliberative work and assisting in the formulation of the 15th Five-Year Plan, the article highlights the CPPCC's role as a dedicated consultative body through which people's democracy is practiced. 
       
 Committed to addressing the difficulties regarding people's livelihood through the rule of law, Pi Jianlong, a lawyer and a national political advisor, has spent years going deep into factories, workshops, law firms and juvenile probation and rehabilitation centers, making sure that his proposals, grounded in rigorous field research, are precise, practical and responsive to real needs. 
  Noting the predicament faced by food delivery riders, including the lack of contracts, social security and basic protection, he proposed targeted suggestions such as innovating social security models and strengthening platform responsibilities. In 2025, platforms such as JD.com and Meituan successively introduced social security plans, providing full social insurance coverage for full-time riders and accident and medical insurance for part-time riders. 
  Awarded for his outstanding performance in 2025 by the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) National Committee recently, Pi exemplifies the commitment of thousands of CPPCC members to serving the people through high-quality duty fulfillment, underscoring the CPPCC's role as a major vehicle through which people's democracy is practiced. 
  On Wednesday afternoon, China's top political advisory body, the CPPCC National Committee, kicked off its annual session in Beijing. Chinese President Xi Jinping, together with other leaders, attended the opening meeting of the fourth session of the 14th CPPCC National Committee. 
  99.9% proposals handled 
  Acting as a dedicated consultative body, the CPPCC has pooled extensive consensus and strength to support the successful conclusion of the 14th Five-Year Plan and a solid start to the 15th Five-Year Plan over the past year, injecting strong vitality into the practice of whole-process people's democracy – a key concept put forward by Xi himself to advance China's political landscape. 
  Over the years, China has made all-around progress in improving the institutions, standards and procedures of socialist democracy and advanced socialist consultative democracy by way of extensive participation. 
  According to a work report delivered at the opening meeting, in 2025, the CPPCC National Committee received 5,992 proposals from its members, of which 5,061 were accepted for processing. The response rate for the accepted proposals stood at 99.9%. 
  The CPPCC National Committee members carried out 6,778 activities to serve the people, along with 11,115 outreach activities engaging people from relevant sectors. These efforts benefited more than 4 million people. 
  By innovating consultative and deliberative methods, improving consultative democracy institutions, and fostering a culture of consultation, the CPPCC has further strengthened its role in promoting democracy and offering policy advice while building consensus. 
  Over the past year, the CPPCC National Committee held 98 consultative and deliberative events, ranging from promoting the country's green and low-carbon transition for the 15th Five-Year Plan and developing the silver economy to improving and innovating social governance. These efforts demonstrate that consultative democracy is grounded in reality and responsive to public needs, pooling support, consensus, wisdom and strength to advance Chinese modernization. 
  Securing a strong start to the 15th Five-Year Plan 
  Supporting the formulation of the 15th Five-Year Plan serves as a key task of the CPPCC in 2025, representing a vivid practice of whole-process people's democracy. 
  From May 20 to June 20 last year, China launched an online public consultation to gather opinions for its next five-year plan. The initiative drew over 3.11 million valid submissions, yielding more than 1,500 constructive suggestions across 27 topics. 
  A summary of these findings was submitted to the Party leadership, ensuring that the people's voices were heard at the highest level. By September, a total of 2,112 suggestions had been collected from various regions, departments and sectors, resulting in 218 revisions to the document. 
  To contribute to the 15th Five-Year Plan, the CPPCC, over the past year, held a special standing committee meeting and carried out 54 special studies, yielding a series of high-quality outcomes. Meanwhile, it launched a special research column, publishing 55 issues to provide evidence-based references for policy-making. 
  This broad-based participation highlights that national development strategies are rooted in public will, gathering strong momentum for Chinese modernization. 
  According to the work report, in 2026, the CPPCC will conduct in-depth research and thorough consultations on major tasks and strategic measures of the 15th Five-Year Plan and carry out cross-committee, cross-sector and cross-disciplinary studies, aiming to put forward forward-looking, targeted and operable policy suggestions, according to the report. 
  Focusing on key issues in areas such as economic development, technological innovation, reform and opening up, social development, and people's livelihood, the CPPCC will truthfully reflect public opinions based on facts and implement the CPPCC National Committee's democratic oversight work plan during the 15th Five-Year Plan period.
