South Korea's Samsung has chosen Taylor, Texas for a new $17bn computer chip factory. The US is hoping to bring more such hi-tech manufacturing back on to American shores, and we explore the implications with Justin Sayers from the Austin Business Journal. And would you want to live to 150? With leaps in technology, science and medicine, it's becoming an increasingly realistic possibility; the 91热爆's Elizabeth Hotson reports on the science - and business - of longevity.
