She added that her nephew, who holds an MBA degree, is ready to help out with their business.

Joy Lin, vice-president for market access in China with Smith & Nephew, and Li Zhijiang, CEO of AK Medical, a Beijing-based medical device company, said they were confident in future collaboration between China and the UK.

"Back then many short video apps became popular, so we decided to have a try," said Zhang Yangcheng, Gan's nephew and a member of her short video team.

Two companies – multinational Smith & Nephew Medical (Shanghai) and Flextronics (Shanghai) Metal Parts – are said to have set a great example in the use of the new system.

The ultra-high definition 4K endoscopic camera system, researched and developed by medical company Smith & Nephew recently realized mass production at the factory of manufacturer Flextronics in the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone (FTZ) Bonded Area.

Last year, Smith & Nephew Medical (Shanghai), as an approved MAH, contracted with Flextronics (Shanghai) Metal Parts for it to produce the camera system.

After localized manufacturing was realized, more than half of the time was saved," said Hu Hai, general manager of Smith & Nephew China.

My nephew sent me a wish list for International Children's Day, which falls on June 1: A smart watch, an AI-enabled education robot, a mini iPad (if it's possible to buy one).

My preteen nephew, when he was all of 3, knew how to watch cartoon films on a laptop.

My sister-in-law tells me a small fortune goes toward buying a range of gadgets for my nephew.

"If I owned a smart watch, maybe I'll take it apart and re-assemble it some day," my nephew told me excitedly.
