A generation ago China was one of the poorest countries on earth; this episode tracks how it became home to the world's fastest-growing economy. The film follows entrepreneurs, factory workers, and newly minted millionaires navigating a system that still calls itself communist while running on markets, foreign investment, and relentless construction. Interviews move between migrant laborers who left rural villages for city factory jobs and the businesspeople who built fortunes in the boom, with footage of skylines, assembly lines, and crowded urban centers charting the scale of the change. The film asks whether the prosperity reaching China's cities is spreading further, or whether it is concentrated among a narrow class while the rural majority is left behind. It treats the country's growth as a real transformation but not a settled success story, weighing the human cost of speed against the undeniable rise in wealth. The result is a portrait of a country reinventing itself in real time, with the question of who benefits left open.
