Beijing CIFTIS Live Broadcast Connects with Puyang Site: “Quality Homes” Built in 45 Days Witness Rural Housing Revolution

CCTV News, September 11, 2025. At the China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) venue, CCTV News Channel 13's live broadcast from the Beijing Residential Industrialization Group exhibition area connected across thousands of miles to a real-time link with a construction site in Puyang, Henan Province. The footage prominently featured a model unit of a new prefabricated rural residence with white walls and black tiles. Unlike traditional construction sites, this project involved no dust or debris. Workers simply assembled prefabricated components with precision. This scene of “building houses like stacking blocks” vividly illustrated China's historic leap in rural housing—from merely having a place to live to enjoying quality housing.

Four Core Advantages Solve Rural Housing Challenges During the livestream, the host detailed the innovations of this prefabricated farmhouse through the camera. Its formwork-free and support-free construction process revolutionizes the cumbersome procedures of traditional construction—such as rebar tying and formwork support. On-site work is reduced to joint grouting and assembly, eliminating 90% of hidden construction risks while controlling construction errors within 5 millimeters. The “45-day completion” speed advantage became the focal point. Compared to the over six-month construction cycle of traditional brick-and-concrete farmhouses, this model home relies on a “factory prefabrication + rapid on-site assembly” model. From foundation preparation to main structure completion takes only 45 days, unaffected by rain or snow, fulfilling the public's expectation of “starting construction and moving in the same year.” The significantly shorter construction period greatly reduces labor costs compared to traditional methods. The model home also excels in environmental sustainability and aesthetics. Its elegant exterior seamlessly integrates with rural landscapes while meeting modern residential design standards.

Technological Innovation Ignites New Momentum for Rural Revitalization As a pioneering model in the construction industry, the promotion of this prefabricated farmhouse is backed by robust policy support. This “time-saving, cost-effective, hassle-free, and eco-friendly” construction approach is rapidly spreading across rural areas, painting a new vision for revitalization and enabling more farmers to enjoy a better life in quality homes.
