>> if you live in manhattan like i do and you think you live in the center of the world, this place, shanghai, will confront you with a very different reality. turn down a side street, it's an ancient culture. a centuries-old mix of culinary traditions, smells, flavors. a block away, this. an ultra modern, clanging cash register, levels of wealth, luxury, the sheer volume of things and services unimagined by the greediest, most bourgeois of capitalist imperialists. the city split by the huangpu river, a tributary of the yangtze. in the older section which features the bund and the newer built-up section of pudong. the one thing i know for sure about china is i will never know china. it's too big, too old, too diverse, too deep. there's simply not enough time. that's for me the joy of china,

facing a learning curve that impossibly steep. the certain knowledge that even if i dedicated my life to learning about china i'd die mostly ignorant. that's exciting. it's too much. and it's changing so fast. china has a population of around 1.3 billion people. and the number of them who are joining an explosive middle class, demanding their share of all that good stuff -- infrastructure, the clothes, the cars, the gas to fuel them as well -- it's the engine that might well drive the whole world. >> you like chinese food? >> very much, yes. >> okay. what do you want? shall i order? >> of course. some good dumplings. >> professor xiao lin is an economist and the current dean

of the college of economics and management at shanghai jiao tong university. like so many people you meet here, he's chinese but was educated in american universities and has taught at yale, duke, and arizona state. >> so you forgive me, economics are not my area of expertise. i wallow in ignorance. but china looks different every time i come. it's changing so, so, so quickly. how did that happen? >> china enjoy this long period of peace. no serious enemy. no major wars. >> right. >> so the manufacturing industry really took off. internally, it's reform and open-door policy. every country willing to trade with china. >> there's certainly no doubt that at this point we -- our destinies are inextricably bound up. we are hopelessly -- our economies are hopelessly intermingled. if one fails, the effect would

be disastrous. >> global impact. >> we are -- to say the least. >> it's certainly -- [ speaking in chinese ] >> oh, beautiful. this is what i was waiting for. >> xiaolongbao, literally, small steaming basket buns. but i translate them in my head to pillows of happiness that will scald your tongue and throat if you don't know what you're doing. look, there are a lot of reasons to come to china and to shanghai in particular, but these babies, done right, these things alone are worth the trip. ground pork and shrimp, folded exactly and always 20 times inside freshly made, individually rolled-out dough. as they're steamed, the delicious, delicious fat renders into a soup of the gods which then, if you're not careful, causes unforgettable maxillofacial damage as it changes your life forever.

>> mm, so good. >> in the china of the future, places like this, fushan jiao long, will be even more packed. by chinese, by expats, by visitors looking for the deeply satisfying rush of screamingly hot goodness. the chewy, deeply savory, fragrant, perfectly shaped and folded ballistically designed delivery vehicles for pure pleasure. and the allure of shanghai-style pork chop served with the local take on the worcestershire sauce. it's irresistible. >> so i really believe that the world is converging and china will again be privatizing more and more. >> right. >> but the difficulty, nowadays it's just the technology is so

advanced, we don't really need that many people to do things that many people used to do. what's the population? 7 billion people. the world probably doesn't need that many people working anymore. >> right. >> so the question is, what should human beings do, you know? how can you let them not do anything and then still living good life? >> right. >> i don't know. it's going to be big issue that face the whole world. >> what is the future? i don't know. but to a very great extent it is surely being determined here. is there a plan? probably not. only appetites. and increasingly, the means to fulfill those appetites, those dreams and aspirations. who will drive the car that takes us to wherever we are going?

they will be young, whoever they are. and not unlike yao minxi, a 30-year-old shanghai native educated in the usa at wellesley, currently a features reporter for the "shanghai daily." she may be the picture of modern china, but this is minxi's favorite restaurant. chun. china and shanghai in particular might be transforming fast, but this place stays resolutely the same. mrs. shu runs the place, serving classic home-style shanghainese. there's no menu, no waiting list. and you only get a seat if she likes you. >> i ordered too much. sorry. >> oh, fantastic. no. very happy. >> we're joined by her friends, lu xing an artist, and matthew, a restaurateur. >> this looks fantastic. how do you eat these? whole? >> i eat them whole, because i really like this.

>> that works. mm! oh, they're good. >> yeah. i think they cook it a few seconds. that's the secret. >> yoba sha are tiny little shrimp, deep fried first, then quickly tossed in the wok with garlic, ginger, salt, and soy. what is classic shanghainese food? what's distinctive about it? well, this, for instance. it's often black or dark and heavily inflected with oil, soy, and sugar. shanghai is and has been for some time a city of immigrants. and the food reflects that genealogy. a combination of people from neighboring zhejiang province known for their liberal use of sugar, soy, and vinegar, and from jiangsu province, known for fresh ingredients and attention to preserving the aliveness of its dishes. it's the best of both worlds, great sauces, great ingredients. there's hung shao ro, braised

pork belly in a deep red glaze of dark and light soy sauce, cinnamon, sugar, and anise. hung shao cha yu, a small fish poached first in rice wine, salted in light soy, then fried in ginger, garlic, oil, more soy and sugar until the liquids reduce into a gorgeous sticky sauce. jung ya, duck that's been marinated, blanched, then reheated, smothered in a sauce made from the reduced drippings left in the wok, with dark soy, salt, and sugar. and this to round things out. yan du shin, a clay pot soup of bean curd-based stock with salted pork belly, tofu ribbons, and bamboo shoots. >> mm. oh, good flavor. this is a socialist country, supposedly. >> yeah. >> a communist country, supposedly. it is in fact, from all the evidence that i've ever seen, the most dynamic capitalist country on earth.

what do you think about that? >> i think a lot of my western friends come here thinking china is a posh version of north korea or the party controls everything. but they come here, they're surprised it's actually not that much. they do seem to be promoting the free market even more with the free trade boom, just establishing shanghai. so it's amazing. >> from what i see everywhere i go, the world is becoming more chinese, chinese influence, chinese food. you build a casino in vegas, or a hotel in singapore, you have to consider what will the chinese think? is that exciting? >> it's exciting that we finally have an influence that we wouldn't. china is sort of in the spotlight in the center of the stage now that we wouldn't have dreamed of, like, say, only a decade ago.

>> for me, i think, you know, the communist menace that we used to always talk about in america, i think the most terrifying scenario that is china becomes a completely free market, nonsocialist, noncommunist society. because you'd bury us. ♪ ♪ ♪

different. in your recent memory, the last ten years, what's the most noticeable change to you? >> food like this is becoming more and more difficult to find. this is handmade. and i think it's real food. it's not very expensive and tastes great. but a lot of food are processed food right now. and also, of course, it's internet. it has pros and cons. of course. the good part is that you can get information easily. >> right. >> the bad part is that people don't talk to each other. even like two people go to a restaurant, you know, like a couple. they take pictures and they use their cell phone. they don't talk to each other. >> they're communicating with everybody else in the world but who's at the table. >> they don't enjoy their life, what's the point. right? >> it didn't happen until you tweeted, as we say. >> oh, my god.

what's clear very quickly here is the way china claims things are, the way things are supposed to be as far as permissible social media and accessed information, and the way they actually are -- two different things. meet thomas yao. hacker turned entrepreneur. he recently received significant start-up money to build what he calls an open-source project sharing platform to connect chinese college students with the world.
