摘要

In Shenzhen,the future is already there.IT is often said that the digital revolution will effect radical changes in the way people live and work,hinting at future trends.However in Shenzhen,that future is already happening.Shenzhen,a city of around 13 million people,last year celebrated its 40th birthday as China’s first special economic zone.The young metropolis has emerged as a world leader in the ongoing technological revolution,driven by its nascent energy.For a glimpse into the future,a visit to the city’s Ping An Finance Center is a must.At 599 meters high,the headquarters of Ping An Insurance is the second tallest building in China and towers over all the other skyscrapers in Shenzhen.Behind the glittering glass facade,more than 20,000 people are employed,all playing their part in helping to shape tomorrow.
