The Pillars of a Great Power II Season 1
Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era. What kind of heavy weapon do we need? What kind of heavy weapon is the "national heavy weapon" that must be owned to build a modern country? What kind of core technology needs to be firmly in your own hands? What kind of institutional system can be built to conceive one new heavy weapon after another? This is the answer to be explored in the large-scale TV documentary "Big Power Heavy Weapon" (Season 2).

The Pillars of a Great Power II Season 1 Full Episode Guide
Innovation is the first driving force for development and a strategic support for building a modern economic system and promoting high-quality economic development. Blue Whale One, Sky Eye, Large Aircraft, and domestic aircraft carriers made wonderful appearances of major countries, which made the Chinese people proud and the world admired. Behind these achievements that have attracted worldwide attention all reflect China's unique advantages in focussing on major things.
Informatization and industrialisation have been continuously integrated, and the intelligent equipment industry represented by robot technology has flourished. In 2017, China continued to become the world's largest industrial robot market, with sales exceeding 120,000 units, accounting for about one-third of the world's total output. In the world's largest and most complete industrial system, intelligent manufacturing is becoming a pioneer, leading an unprecedented change in China's industrial manufacturing industry.
Big data, cloud computing, mobile Internet, and the scientific and technological revolution represented by the new generation of information technology are surging. They are changing the way of human thinking, production, life and learning with unprecedented power. The vision of building a network power has been woven, and information equipment and technology are becoming a powerful driving force for this big eastern country to win the future.
The first domestic aircraft carrier was launched; the first combustible ice trial was successfully exploited; from offshore granaries to offshore oil and gas fields; from desalination to offshore wind farms. The "Blue Chinese Dream" of innovative development is getting closer and closer to enrich the country, strengthening the country with the sea, building a maritime power. The creation secret of the Blue Whale series, the world's largest deep-sea drilling platform. Deep Sea Warrior explores the mysterious resources of the 4,500-metre area of the deep sea. The world's first marine pasture, the world's most advanced sand blowing artefact; the world's strongest maritime giant, the world's most advanced ocean cargo ship, the world's most complete marine transport fleet - the Great Power Heavy Weapon, advanced into the dark blue.
In this strategic field related to the prosperity and development of the country, the improvement of people's lives, and the long-term stability of society, China's attitude is clear - to focus on promoting the reform of energy production and utilisation methods and building a clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient modern energy system. Behind this, super equipment is becoming a sharp weapon for haematopoietic pulse. At the starting point of the world's highest-level ultra-voltage engineering, the manufacturing know-how of core heavy converter transformers has been unveiled. The world's largest monomer coal liquification base witnessed the Chinese-foreign competition of high-grade air separation devices. Explore the secret of small size and vigourousness of fracturing vehicles at the largest shale gas mining site in China. From the world's thinnest new energy batteries to the world's unique twin nuclear power project, China's new energy technology has been fully operational.
Super equipment allows human beings to acquire capabilities beyond themselves, construction machinery manufacturing level and ability, which has become a key indicator to measure a country's industrial level. China is already the world's largest manufacturing base for construction machinery. This is the most likely area for China to take the lead in becoming a manufacturing power.
Exploring the vast universe and building a powerful country in the sky, the Chinese people's dream has ushered in a new era of realisation. As the field with the highest concentration of high and new technologies and the strongest industrial spillover effect, the sky technology level is an important symbol of a country's scientific and technological strength, as well as an important embodiment of a country's economic strength, national Defence strength and comprehensive national strength. Large planes take off, and domestic aircraft engines are unveiled; large-thrust rocket engine ignition test, panoramic presentation; help space layout, China's satellite manufacturing equipment is newly unveiled; space closed survival test challenges global limits. Towards an aerospace power, China has launched an engine to move forward at full speed.
As the world's largest manufacturing country, more than 220 of China's more than 500 major industrial products ranks first in the world. From the century-old dream Sichuan-Tibet railway project to the millennium dream of the Padma Bridge in Bangladesh, from the industrial bases pulled by China's high-speed railway to the top soldiers in China's nuclear industry chain, they have raised the independent innovation of dozens of high-end equipment industries such as metallurgy, bearings, profiles and precision instruments.
