Yeah were talking about it in the community thread.

That LSD screen they have is fkkkn insane. Imagine how much that thing alone cost?

The craziest thing is that like 99% of the stuff that theyre doing is man-powered.

To get the precise coordination of 15,000 people all in one place is just amazing.

I'm awestruck.

Who ever thought that China isn't truly catching up with us better think again. It makes you wonder what their country's influence on the world will be in fifteen years from now. They're apparently capable of doing whatever they set out to do, already. Let's just hope that the message of harmony is a true long term aspiration and not just a PR stunt.
