SHANGHAI, Nov. 10 (Xinhua) -- From surgical robots to plant-based meat, exhibitors raced against time to showcase their new products, technologies and services at China's import expo, a platform for the country to share its development opportunities with the rest of the world.
The fourth China International Import Expo (CIIE), which concluded in Shanghai on Wednesday, attracted nearly 3,000 companies from 127 countries and regions.
Here are six buzzwords that offer a glimpse of the products of this year's CIIE and the enthusiasm of exhibitors to tap into the growing Chinese market.

LOW CARBON
China has set the goals of peaking carbon dioxide emissions before 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality before 2060. Apart from unveiling a guiding document and an action plan, authorities are working on a number of sector- or industry-specific implementation plans, which will be rolled out in the fields of energy, industries, transport and urban and rural construction, among other areas.
In view of China's determination to reduce carbon emissions and the huge market opportunities coming with it, exhibitors had put "low carbon" high on their agenda of this year's CIIE.
"We've seen China's ambitions in peaking carbon emissions and achieving carbon neutrality and hope to build new sustainable energy ecosystem with Chinese partners," said Jochen Eickholt, member of the executive board of Siemens Energy AG.
China's carbon goals bring new opportunities for enterprises, said Saw Choon Seong, China President of Air Products, an industrial gas company.
He said the company has accelerated the implementation of innovative solutions in areas of hydrogen for mobility, gasification as well as carbon capture and utilization.
In 2021, Air Products commissioned its first hydrogen fueling station in Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province, for Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics.
DIGITAL
Multinationals are also expanding their footprints in China's thriving digital economy, whose market scale rose 9.6 percent year on year to 5.4 trillion U.S. dollars in 2020, ranking second in the world, showed a report from the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology.
With the deepening of China's digital transformation, more business models of digital economy will be rolled out and will inject vitality into the country's high-quality development, according to Visal Leng, president of Johnson Controls Asia Pacific.
The company rolled out OpenBlue Net Zero Buildings that can track various sustainability indicators of buildings in real time and generate data reports to hit decarbonization and renewable energy goals while optimizing building performance.
As a first-time CIIE participant, Rockwell Automation focuses on the innovation trends of digitalization, smart manufacturing and carbon neutrality, creating an intelligent "Small World" of real-life scenarios integrated physical models and digital technologies at the booth.
For instance, in the Small World, Rockwell Automation has built up a simulated cookie packaging line using its Digital Twins solutions. Visitors are welcomed to wear VR glasses to enter the factory in digitalized and virtual format, walking through the production lines, carrying boxes, operating systems, just as what the staff would do in a real factory.
China's digital fiat currency, or the e-CNY, also debuted at the expo. At the souvenir store of the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai), where the CIIE was held, consumers could get a "30 off 50" discount when paying with the e-CNY.
INTELLIGENCE
Intelligent products and solutions have always been popular among CIIE exhibitors. Complex and precise operations conducted by robots, from building houses to playing table tennis, amazed visitors.
Nearly everyone passing the national pavilion of Timor Leste is attracted by the fragrance of coffee and a Baymax-looking coffee-making robot swiftly moving its metallic arms.
"Timor Leste has the best Kopi Luwak of the world, and it should be matched with the best coffee-making techniques," said Bei Lei, the pavilion's executive curator. It takes the robot around three minutes to brew a cup of coffee, with the whole process remotely controllable.
Yamaha's two Disklavier Pianos also attracted a crowd of audience. Songs played by performers on one piano can be reproduced in real time with high precision on the other.
For the first time, the CIIE set up innovation incubation zones in the exhibition areas of technological equipment, automobile and healthcare. Innovative products related to artificial intelligence, healthcare technology and autopilot were displayed in the incubation zones.
