The era has come for the younger generations - the post 1990s, to be exact.
That's an immediate conclusion when you check out Forbes' annual list of 30 Under 30, presenting the greatest gathering of young game changers, movers and makers around the globe. They are, at the same time, innovative and brave challengers of industrial giants.
In China, the list is even more eye-catching as the central government has been calling for mass entrepreneurship, creations and innovations amid deepening economic reforms, a twin engine to drive the country during slowing economic growth.
The following are some of the standouts among Forbes China's list of 30 Under 30 this year, covering areas from mobile games, wearables, e-commerce, media, finance, traveling, to manufacturing.
