China will showcase some domestically produced, advanced military equipment at an upcoming parade, authorities announced Thursday.

In the past - in the lead up to these parades - the Chinese gov’t has prohibited all use of automobiles, buses and mopeds in the city. So when the parade is held all the outside world sees is pristine clear skies. Not the smog-choked atmosphere that is the norm for Beijing.
I've seen it first hand. Was there on the ground. When the factories are turned back on you see immediately the smug coming back, like a wall creeping towards you. It's insane to watch
