The 138th Canton Fair is in full swing (Oct 15-Nov 4). Gathering top-tier products from across China, it's not only about business deals but also about the future. Walk the halls of the world's largest trade show, and you'll find a new wave of the global workforce: intelligent robots from China.

They are no longer just a concept but a global reality. These robots are already serving food in Spanish restaurants, cleaning skyscrapers in the Middle East, and even assisting in precise surgical procedures with an accuracy of 0.5 millimeters.

From life-sized humanoids that can tidy up and press elevator buttons to companion robots for your pets, the innovation on display is reshaping what's possible. With Guangdong at the epicenter of this revolution, producing one out of every three industrial robots in China, the Canton Fair has become the definitive destination to witness and shape the next century of human life.
