Zhengzhou was the center of ancient China, and now it is also a transportation hub and an important city in central China.

I am very glad to have the opportunity to come to Zhengzhou again. The last time I came to Zhengzhou was during the epidemic, and this time I shared some information about the new look of the city after the epidemic.
