📘 Blockchain Chicken Farm by Xiaowei Wang

In *Blockchain Chicken Farm*, technologist and writer Xiaowei Wang investigates the intersection of technology, politics, and social life in rural China. The book argues against the notion that rural communities are backward, showing instead how they adopt and innovate technologies such as AI‑enhanced pork farming and e‑commerce platforms. Wang also explores the rise of digital commerce villages, the spread of luxury counterfeits, and the broader role of technology in connecting rural China to global markets. Light‑hearted “Sinofuturist” recipes illustrate how food and tradition evolve alongside these innovations.
