  Nantong (南通): China's First Modern City is Rising Again

  Jun 15, 20266 minS1

  Exploring Nantong (南通), the quiet $184 billion powerhouse that actually pioneered China's modernization and is now poised to become Shanghai's massive northern gateway. 🎙️ About the Host: Leon Ge Leon Ge is an ex-Googler, founder, investor and industrial systems thinker working across China, Europe and Southeast Asia. He focuses on materials, manufacturing, supply chains and the geopolitical shifts reshaping the real economy. He is also the founder and CEO of Tocco, where he is building an industrial intelligence platform. In this episode, we cover: The forgotten story of Zhang Jian and how Nantong became China's first true "modern city", launching public museums and textile schools long before Shenzhen or Pudong existed. How this single city quietly commands the global home textile market and physically built 15% of Shanghai's super high-rise buildings. The geographic curse of the Yangtze River that kept Nantong separated from China's richest region for decades, and how new rail lines are erasing that wall. Why the upcoming Nantong New Airport (effectively Shanghai's third airport) will transform this economy, which is already the size of Morocco, into an unstoppable global logistic and industrial hub.
