Guizhou
EP245 一年一度寻味之旅：今年去吃创意菜 adds Guizhou’s food-culture role. Through 邱连 and 欧哈, the episode presents Guizhou cuisine as a system of acid, chili, fermentation, and aroma that can move into 创意中餐 through 贵州酸辣风味迁移.
Guizhou enters the wiki through Building things and breaking things in China (Summer School World Tour) as Dan Wang’s vivid example of Chinese build capacity and possible Infrastructure Malinvestment. The source says Wang cycled through the province in 2021 and saw extremely tall bridges, while the episode notes that Guizhou has many of the world’s tallest bridges and numerous airports despite being one of China’s poorer provinces.
The point is not that every bridge is useless. Guizhou is used as a concrete case for the Engineering State question: when a state can build spectacular infrastructure quickly, what feedback ensures that roads, bridges, airports, health care, schooling, transfers, sanitation, and daily public services are prioritized correctly?
