A | (ECNS) -- Chongqing, a major automobile manufacturing hub in southwest China, exported vehicles worth 35.33 billion yuan (about $5.23 billion) in the first seven months of 2026, up 57.1% year on year, according to customs data released Thursday. Changan Automobile, Seres and Great Wall Motor are among the major automakers headquartered in or operating production bases in the city. Changan Automobile also reported strong growth in overseas deliveries, with 82,300 vehicles delivered overseas in August, up 79.1% year on year. Seres, meanwhile, launched its first dedicated cross-border freight train via the China-Laos Railway under the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor in 2026, marking the first time Chongqing has used the route for a customized train carrying complete vehicles for export. "The globalization of China's automobile industry is in full swing," said Wang Hui, executive vice president of Changan Automobile. He noted that overseas market research has shown strong acceptance and recognition of Chinese auto brands. "We have seen strong demand for Chongqing-made vehicles in the Central Asian market this year, with more companies entering the automobile export business," said Liu Lei, a Chongqing-based auto export dealer. Chongqing has launched the "Yuche Chuhai" (Chongqing Automobiles Going Global) action plan to build a nationally leading export base for intelligent and new energy vehicles (NEVs). The plan aims to increase the city's annual NEV exports to more than 120 billion yuan by 2027. (By Tang Yuxian)

B | As the countdown intensifies for James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire and Ash, one name is sparking growing intrigue, and it is Varang. She isn’t merely a new character; she is the beating heart of the frenzy, the mystery and the towering anticipation surrounding Cameron’s latest chapter. In Avatar: Fire and Ash, audiences will journey deeper into Pandora than ever before, encountering an entirely new civilisation, the Mangkwan clan, also known as the Ash People. Fierce, resilient and shaped by a life of unrelenting hardship, this clan offers a raw and unfiltered window into Pandora’s darker, more complex corners. At their helm stands Varang, a leader forged by suffering, fuelled by purpose, and destined to redefine the emotional stakes of the saga. Bringing Varang to life is Oona Chaplin, granddaughter of the iconic Charlie Chaplin. Varang is not crafted simply as an antagonist or narrative counterpoint, she is a force of nature. Talking about her character, she said, "I never saw her as a villain, and I don't think you say that as well, you're not the villain, you know, it's a little complicated, but I think both of these characters are also very principled. For me, you know, it was a great revelation to have the conversations with Jim around this theme where she tells a little bit about her biography, her kind of origin story, why she is the way she is. And it struck me as like she's actually a very human character, because the depth of trauma that comes from the separation from the connection to nature, which, you know, everybody here understands what that feels like, even if we've forgotten even what that feels like, but, you know, all of that, that disconnection breeds conflict." To embody her intensity, Oona Chaplin immersed herself in curated music and symbolic decor on set, a ritual that helped her channel the fire, pain and conviction that define Varang’s essence. Unlike the Omatikaya and the Metkayina, the Mangkwan are a clan pushed to the edge, a community that has endured deep wounds and spiritual disillusionment. Their suffering has distanced them from Eywa, Pandora’s guiding force. Varang is swiftly becoming one of the most talked-about characters of the year. Avatar: Fire and Ash releases on December 19 in English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada. Also Read: Mrs Deshpande Trailer: Madhuri Dixit Returns in a Dark New Avatar。
