At a media briefing, organizers said the 13th Beijing Xiangshan Forum will be held Sept. 15-17 at the Beijing International Conference Center and preparations are largely complete.

Coherent said it will bring photonics products and full‑stack optical solutions for AI compute, data centers and high‑speed optical communications to the 2026 CIOE. In‑rack high‑speed interconnect coverage will span silicon photonics, multimode VCSEL and InP technology paths; the booth will highlight 12.8T XPO, 6.4T slot CPO and 1.6T VCSEL NPO solutions.

Sept. 8 morning DR007 fell to 1.3719%. The PBOC conducted a 1 bln yuan 7‑day reverse repo, fully meeting primary dealers' demand. DR007 is a short-term money-market rate and is treated as China’s short‑end rate anchor; the spread between DR007 and the PBOC 7‑day reverse‑repo (policy) rate signals funding tightness—DR007 materially above the policy rate implies money‑market stress and may prompt PBOC liquidity injection, while DR007 at or below the policy rate indicates ample funding.
