Christine Alcantara also picked up a machine gun and created a “paint painting” on the big screen.
During her trip to the Yangpu Riverside, what touched her the most was the renovation of the old buildings here. Just like the WorldSkills Museum, old buildings are used to create new things. She believes that a lot of idle and abandoned space can be used to create a better world.

Christine Alcantara and her friends also visited Meituan. Using Meituan's app excites her because it's so convenient when she wants to have a cup of coffee or a bite to eat. Deliveries by autonomous delivery vehicles and drones make it easier for everyone to get their wares, she said.
