China builds world's longest bridge

According to my dad, who is a chemical engineer, China really is quite developped in technology. The company my dad works for was doing a contract to buy equipment from a chinese supplier and they were at first afraid the equipment wouldn't have the quality they were expecting because of how cheap they were so they ran multiple tests on the equipment after buying. Finally they got to the conclusion that the equipment was really really good despite the price. Those equipments were cheap not because they don't pay workers much in China, it was because they are really advancing a lot in technology.
