   The opening song of the opening ceremony of this year’s World Artificial Intelligence Conference is as cool as in previous years. Gorgeous lights, dancing 3D manipulators and vivid video images, together with the performance by Yun Zhu, an erhu player and composer born in the 1990s, brought an audio-visual feast with various national musical instruments and rich national flavor to the audience.

   It was not until the host revealed the secret at the end of the song that the audience suddenly realized that the composition of the opening song, the performance of other national musical instruments, and even the production of videos and lights were all generated by artificial intelligence. Unconsciously, generative artificial intelligence has entered people’s daily life.

  1. Generative artificial intelligence brings changes.

   Generative artificial intelligence entered the public’s field of vision last year. Writing copywriting, writing papers, drawing illustrations, making videos … seems to replace many human jobs overnight, making people happy and sad.

   "Generation" means that artificial intelligence can not only do discriminant work in the past, but also form new productive forces. In the long run, the scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation triggered by "generation" are reshaping the world economy and affecting future life.

   The types of products "generated" by artificial intelligence are accelerating renovation. Just like the scene of the opening song of the opening ceremony, as one of the nine official treasures of the World Artificial Intelligence Conference, the XMusic universal composition framework developed by Tencent Multimedia Lab is based on generative artificial intelligence technology, and supports multi-modal contents such as video, pictures, text, labels and humming as input prompts, which can generate high-quality music with controllable mood, style and rhythm.

   This greatly lowers the threshold for people to create new music, which can be an elaborate short video, a meaningful photo, or just a line of words.

   Opposite the Tencent booth, the racket and shooting sound from SenseShot Smart Basketball Court in Shangtang Science and Technology Exhibition Area attracts visitors to stop and watch and participate from time to time. Relying on the five cameras set up on the court, the smart basketball court carries out 3D modeling of the court through 2D key point extraction and 3D video motion capture. The system will automatically capture 29 key points of the face/human body and basketball, and make logical calculation and analysis on the players.

   After the sports, the system can generate personal video highlights through the three-dimensional coordinates of people and the ball in space, and analyze the action characteristics of people in different sports States, providing detailed data and statistics for players to help analyze and improve basketball skills.

   "This artificial intelligence system can not only provide data statistics for amateur basketball fans and improve their technical level, but also provide technical statistics and tactical sharing for competitive sports competitions to help professional basketball teams improve their technical and tactical level. Now we are in contact with CBA professional teams and may provide them with solutions in the future. " Wang Zhaohui, director of Shang Tang Smart Sports Project, told the reporter.

  2. The big model empowers thousands of industries

   If Baidu Wenxin, a big model at last year’s World Artificial Intelligence Conference, still stands out, this year, more than 30 big models, including ali tong Yi, Huawei Pangu, iFLYTEK Spark and Shang Tang Ririxin, all appeared, showing the vitality of a hundred flowers.

   "General artificial intelligence has become the hottest topic in our human society in this period." Hu Houkun, the rotating chairman of Huawei, said at the opening ceremony of the conference, "While deeply cultivating computing power, Huawei should also do a good job, that is, let artificial intelligence truly enter thousands of industries and serve scientific research. On the one hand, we must continuously improve the ability of the general big model, on the other hand, we must build an industry model on this basis. "

   As the winner of the SAIL Award of this World Artificial Intelligence Conference, Jingtai Technology’s intelligent and automated drug research and development platform uses AI and robots to achieve a high degree of automation and intelligence in the innovative drug research and development process, including the application of professional models.

   They took the lead in applying GPT-like technology to the research and development of macromolecular drugs, and independently developed the next generation of macromolecular drug production AI model ProteinGPT, which has a good application in antibody discovery, antibody modification, antigen design, protein ab initio design and other scenarios. As the world’s first macromolecular drug production AI model that landed in the real drug research and development pipeline, ProteinGPT has also been compared to the biological version of the production artificial intelligence by the industry.

  3. Generative artificial intelligence is a double-edged sword.

   "Generative artificial intelligence is a double-edged sword. While it is developing rapidly to benefit mankind, it also poses new problems to mankind in ethics, social governance, laws and regulations." According to Cui Yadong, president of Shanghai Law Society, there are a series of problems to be solved in data security, intellectual property rights, application norms and related laws.

   "From a legal perspective, artificial intelligence may generate false information, which may lead to infringement, which requires us to make necessary legal responses." Wang Liming, a professor at China Renmin University, said that we should pay attention to regulation and encourage innovation. "How to leave the necessary space for innovation is a value orientation that we must consider when identifying infringement."

   Elon musk, CEO of Tesla, is also worried about the future of deep artificial intelligence. "This kind of super intelligence has powerful ability, which is stronger than human beings, which also represents a kind of risk and hidden worry." Musk said at the opening ceremony of the conference, "It may have a very positive future, but it may also trigger some negative events. We must do our best to ensure that these negative futures do not happen and positive futures will happen." (Reporter Ren Peng Yan Weiqi)

Breeding: Realizing Leap-forward Development, Making a Good Fight for Seed Industry.

A new round of deep integration of biotechnology and information technology has driven the rapid transformation and iteration of modern biological breeding technology and become a new engine to promote the development of modern agricultural industry. Biological breeding has entered a new era of big data, big platform and great discovery.

A seed can change a world. The development of seed industry is directly related to the national food security and the "rice bag" and "vegetable basket" of the people.
What measures will China take to turn over the seed industry during the 14 th Five-Year Plan period?
On March 5, at the "Ministerial Passage" of the Fourth Session of the 13th National People’s Congress, Minister of Agriculture and Rural Affairs Tang Renjian said: "We are working with relevant departments to study and formulate an action plan to turn the seed industry around. Strive to achieve a major breakthrough in seed industry in about 10 years. First, in terms of germplasm resources, the livestock and poultry germplasm resource bank is currently being established; The marine fishery germplasm resource bank has been built; The new crop germplasm resource bank will be built in September this year, and the preservation capacity will reach 1.5 million copies after completion, ranking first in the world. Second, in tackling key core technologies, we will make breakthroughs in original technology and chassis technology as much as possible, and strive to put these technologies in our hands. Third, it is necessary to cultivate a number of seed enterprises that integrate breeding, reproduction and promotion, and establish and improve a commercial breeding system. The fourth is to do a good job in the construction of Hainan Nanfan base and seed bases in Gansu, Sichuan and other countries. The fifth is to manage the seed market and protect intellectual property rights, especially to crack down on deck infringement. "
Biological breeding becomes a new engine to promote the development of modern agriculture
"China is the second largest seed market in the world and a big seed country, but it is not yet a strong seed country. The key to realizing the leap-forward development of modern seed industry and making a good turnaround of seed industry is to vigorously promote the innovation of breeding technology." Zhang Wen, the second inspector of the Science and Education Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, pointed out.
"The development of international seed industry is generally divided into four stages, namely the era of domestication and selection 1.0, the era of conventional breeding 2.0, the era of molecular marker-assisted selection breeding 3.0 and the era of intelligent breeding 4.0. In some developed countries, seed industry has entered the breeding 4.0 era of’ biotechnology+artificial intelligence+big data information technology’. China is still between the 2.0 era and the 3.0 era, which is mainly based on hybrid breeding and molecular technology-assisted breeding. " Wan Jianmin, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, academician of China Academy of Engineering and vice president of China Academy of Agricultural Sciences, told the Science and Technology Daily reporter.
In recent years, developed countries have continuously deepened the layout of basic disciplines and seized the commanding heights of future agricultural industry development. Significant progress has been made in the research of major gene mining and functional analysis, and the molecular mechanism of the formation of important traits; Drive the deep integration of agricultural biotechnology and artificial intelligence; Promote the upgrading, superposition and integration of technologies such as gene editing and synthetic biology, and promote the revolution of precision, intelligence and factory seed industry.
"Although China is rich in germplasm resources, due to the long-term weak basic agricultural research, there are insufficient original new germplasm, new materials and new technologies, and the intellectual property rights of some core provenances of animals and plants are controlled by foreign seed giants." Gao Wangsheng, a professor at China Agricultural University and president of the National Institute of Agricultural Science and Technology Strategy, told the Science and Technology Daily reporter.
The Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee put forward that self-reliance and self-improvement in science and technology should be the strategic support for national development, and biological breeding should be listed as one of the eight frontier areas to strengthen the key development of national strategic forces. The innovation and application of biological breeding have been placed in a more prominent and important position, and the development of biological breeding has entered a new stage.
"A new round of deep integration of biotechnology and information technology has driven the rapid transformation and iteration of modern biological breeding technology and become a new engine to promote the development of modern agricultural industry. Biological breeding has entered a new era of big data, big platform and great discovery. " Wan Jianmin said.
Using new technology to realize overtaking in seed industry curve
"If the seed industry is the chip of agriculture, then the germplasm resources are the chip of the chip. Without germplasm resources, agricultural breeding innovation will become passive water. China has 520,000 germplasm resources and is the second largest germplasm resource country in the world. However, less than 10% of the germplasm resources have been deeply identified and evaluated, and there is a certain gap between the development and utilization of germplasm resources and developed countries. " Yang Hua, deputy to the National People’s Congress, deputy secretary of the party group and general manager of Sinochem Group, said that China has a profound lesson of poor protection of germplasm resources. China is the country of origin of soybean, which has special excellent soybean germplasm resources. However, foreign companies have applied for 64 international patents using a wild soybean material from China as their parents, which may lead to the infringement of intellectual property rights by Chinese breeding enterprises using their own soybean plants. Insufficient protection, development and utilization of germplasm resources have caused the problem of "sticking the neck" of some crop species in China.
Wan Jianmin revealed that during the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period, China will continue to promote the third national survey and collection of agricultural germplasm resources, focusing on building a platform for Qualcomm quantitative and large-scale phenotypic and genotypic identification, exploring germplasm materials with excellent genetic resources, and directionally improving and creating new germplasm with high yield, high quality, stress resistance and efficient utilization of nutrients.
According to Zhu Jiankang, director of Shanghai Plant Stress Biology Research Center of China Academy of Sciences and academician of American Academy of Sciences, if biological breeding technology is used well, China will be able to solve the bottleneck problem of seed industry faced by agriculture.
Zhu Jiankang thinks that it will take many years to catch up with the technical level of foreign seed industry if we rely on traditional breeding, but new breeding technology can make us do it faster. "It is entirely possible that the new technology will enable us to truly overtake the seed industry in corners and make our seeds more competitive." He said.
"At present, the world seed industry is welcoming the modern biological breeding scientific and technological revolution marked by the integrated development of gene editing, synthetic biology, artificial intelligence and other technologies. We need to seize the opportunity, accelerate innovation, and turn the seed industry over, so as to realize the leap-forward development of the seed industry." Zhang Taolin, Vice Minister of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said.
Gao Wangsheng suggested that during the Tenth Five-Year Plan period, China should organize and implement the national seed science and technology innovation project, strengthen the original breakthroughs in basic frontier technologies such as animal stem cells and synthetic biology, and cultivate a number of core germplasm resources with independent intellectual property rights and major strategic new varieties; Accelerate the industrialization application process of biological breeding; Implement the modern seed enterprise reengineering project, and make up your mind to cultivate leading seed enterprises with strong international competitiveness.
"We should build a technological innovation center with systematic layout in innovation chain, build more national key laboratories such as crop genetic resources, cultivate innovative teams integrating the upper, middle and lower reaches, foster internationally competitive seed enterprises, and grasp the initiative in the development of biological seed industry." Wan Jianmin said.
Strengthening original innovation and promoting seed industry’s scientific and technological self-reliance
How to strengthen the original innovation of seed science and technology and realize the self-reliance of seed science and technology?
"This year’s No.1 Document of the Central Committee has made a top-level design and system deployment for the turnaround of the seed industry, involving all aspects of the entire seed industry chain such as germplasm resources protection, breeding research, and seed market management. Generally speaking, we must adhere to the bottom line thinking and problem-oriented, focus on the national food security and the "three guarantees" requirements of ensuring quantity, diversity and quality of important agricultural and sideline products, follow the law of seed industry innovation and development, and break the card, make up the shortcomings and strengthen the advantages. To sum up, it is necessary to speed up the construction of seed industry innovation system, including germplasm resources protection and utilization system, industrial system and governance system, and comprehensively improve the four capabilities of independent innovation, enterprise competition, seed supply guarantee and governance according to law. " Zhang Taolin said.
"In the future, it is necessary to speed up the establishment of a modern, automated and intelligent national germplasm bank for new works, focusing on cultivating major new varieties such as high-quality green super rice, high-quality functional rice, high-quality water-saving wheat, scab-resistant wheat, drought-tolerant corn, insect-resistant and herbicide-resistant corn, high-quality protein corn, high-yield and high-protein soybeans, and herbicide-resistant soybeans." Wan Jianmin said that it is necessary to continue to promote the joint research and genetic improvement plan for improved varieties, tap truly useful genes, create breakthrough germplasm, and realize the self-reliance and self-reliance of China’s seed industry science and technology. Such as rice and wheat, we should speed up the breeding of high-quality special varieties to maintain competitiveness, and soybean should speed up the breeding of high-yield high-oil high-protein varieties.
"The future development direction of agriculture is: high and stable yield, high quality nutrition, high efficiency and safety, and agricultural industrialization." Li Jiayang, a deputy to the National People’s Congress, an academician of China Academy of Sciences and a researcher at the Institute of Genetics and Development of China Academy of Sciences, said that China’s agricultural modernization has reached a new stage of accelerating the transformation of development mode, and it must rely more on science and technology to achieve innovation drive, and continuously provide a strong driving force for agricultural development transformation and upgrading, quality improvement and efficiency improvement.
Li Jiayang said that taking rice as an example, there will be three aspects of work in the future.
First, we should strengthen the cultivation of new varieties. China has a vast territory, many rice planting areas and many main varieties, and the varieties in many areas have not been upgraded, so it is necessary to continue to create more new rice varieties suitable for different ecological areas.
Second, it is necessary to strengthen the promotion of new varieties, so that more farmers can plant new varieties and benefit from them, and ensure national food security.
Third, it is necessary to continue to strengthen the research on functional genes in rice, especially in the field of important agronomic traits (resistance to high and low temperature, insect resistance, resistance to false smut, etc.) where key genes have not been found.
Li Xinhai, director of the Institute of Biotechnology of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and chief scientist of the national corn industrial technology system, pointed out that corn is the largest crop in China, an important grain feed and industrial raw material in China, and an important basis for national food security and effective supply of agricultural products.
"With the improvement of people’s living standards, the consumption of corn has increased year by year. During the 14 th Five-Year Plan period, corn should break through the bottleneck of germplasm and develop in the direction of high quality, greening and mechanization. It should focus on tropical germplasm, drive the rapid improvement of the original core scientific research strength of biological breeding in China through technological integration, master the discourse power of corn seed industry, and ensure national food security. " Li Xinhai said.

"Havana syndrome" is still unexplained! But the Biden administration quietly changed its name.

Dizziness, nausea, migraine and memory loss … These mysterious symptoms, originally reported by diplomats of the US Embassy in Cuba, called "Havana Syndrome", have appeared in many places in the world in the past five years and have been heated by the US media, even affecting the relationship between the United States and Cuba for a time.
American politicians and researchers suspect that Havana syndrome may be caused by some kind of sound wave or microwave weapon attack, but Cuban scientists refuted this speculation on the 13th.
According to Agence France-Presse reported on the 14th, the Cuban government convened a team of 16 experts from different fields from the Academy of Sciences to study Havana Syndrome.
On the 13th local time, the team published the research report on Cuba’s official news website "Cuba Debate". According to the report, the term "Havana syndrome" is "scientifically unacceptable" and there is "no scientific evidence of such an attack" on Cuban territory.
Cuban experts said in the report that some people have accepted that it is an axiom that the attack took place in Havana. However, four years later, there is no evidence to prove this attack ","and despite intensive investigations, the Cuban police, the FBI and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police have not found any evidence that the diplomat in Havana was attacked ".
Experts say that under the condition that related symptoms are reported in Havana, no known energy form can selectively cause brain damage, and most of the reported symptoms can be explained by diseases, that is, "there is no new syndrome". They indicated that they would continue to evaluate any new evidence in the future.
The Associated Press commented on the 14th that Cuba has published the most detailed report on Havana Syndrome so far, criticizing the statement that American and Canadian diplomats were mysteriously attacked in Cuba and had health problems. The report of scientists from the Cuban Academy of Sciences questioned whether the reported symptoms could be called a single syndrome, and said that some explanations proposed violated the basic laws of physics.
According to the British "Economist" report, the first cases of "Havana syndrome" appeared among diplomats in Havana, Cuba, five years ago. At that time, several CIA personnel working in the American embassy described that there was a sense of pressure in their minds and they would hear voices similar to cicadas. They feel sick and tired, and they can’t remember things. They also complain about earache and hearing loss.
Subsequently, brain scans of these people showed that tissue damage was similar to that caused by car accidents or bomb explosions. The American government was frightened. This mysterious disease puzzles American and Canadian diplomats, intelligence personnel and embassy staff.
According to statistics, since 2016, more than 200 people have experienced this symptom. In addition to Cuba, similar cases have been reported in China, Germany, Australia, Colombia, Uzbekistan, Russia, Austria and even Washington, D.C..
The last time was at the end of last month, when US Vice President Harris’ visit to Vietnam was delayed for three hours because the staff of the US Embassy in Vietnam allegedly developed "Havana Syndrome".
According to Agence France-Presse, the Trump administration evacuated American workers in Havana and expelled Cuban diplomats from Washington, suggesting that Cuba may be behind the "sonic attack".
Last month, when American officials working in Germany also developed Havana syndrome, Cabanas, a former diplomat who was the head of Cuba’s interest representative office in the United States, tweeted that "the so-called Havana syndrome has always been hyped by the US media, and now it has appeared in Germany. The question is, if so many officials in the State Council are infected with this disease in so many countries, why does this only affect relations with Cuba? "
Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez said on the social platform on the 13th that "this shows how unfair the measures taken by the United States against Cuba are, and these measures have not been reversed."
Rodriguez accused the United States of unfair political manipulation against Cuba in the name of health and science. He said, "Due to political manipulation, the investigation in the fields of science and health was prematurely stopped, and the problem can only be clarified through transparency and cooperation in these two fields."
Valdez Sosa, director of the Cuban Neuroscience Research Center, said after the release of the above report on the 13th that some international media spread these explanations without scientific basis, which not only confused the public, but also hurt American officials who believed in these remarks, which hindered the easing of relations between Cuba and the United States.
The BBC said that uncovering the truth of Havana syndrome has become the top priority of American national security, and one official even described it as one of the most difficult intelligence challenges they faced.
Hard evidence has always been elusive, making the syndrome a battlefield where various theories compete with each other.
The United States has been conducting relevant investigations, but it has never been able to give a credible explanation. In addition to Cuba, the United States will also target Russia.
Newsweek said on the 13th that the most popular theory about the explanation of Havana syndrome is the secret sound wave, microwave or infrared harassment used by the Russian military. Some experts have found that the symptoms of these health events are consistent with these activities.
This is reminiscent of the Cold War mentality that the United States continues to dominate the debate on Cuba. But in the absence of evidence, these theories only stay at the speculative level.
Other experts attribute the sounds heard by the staff of the American Embassy in Havana to natural causes, such as the chirping of some crickets, and believe that the victims will be troubled by mental illness instead of physical injury.
Under Biden’s leadership, the US government has started an inter-departmental investigation. So far, the survey seems to have produced more questions than answers.
Sosa stressed, "The word’ Havana syndrome’ is not appropriate. You can’t name something that doesn’t exist. Such a variety of symptoms cannot be attributed to a common cause. "
Today, the Biden administration has been thinking about the naming of this disease.
The US Newsweek reported on the 13th that "Havana Syndrome" was widely used by the United States to refer to the symptoms of American embassy staff in Cuba and other countries. The Biden administration has quietly renamed the disease to reduce the reference to the place where the disease first appeared. A the State Council spokesman said, "We call these events’ unexplained health events ‘(UHIs)".

How do countries find ways to solve the world’s difficult traffic congestion?

         Congested high-speed, crowded railway stations, busy airports …

Are you stuck in traffic when you go home for the Spring Festival this year?

During the period of Spring Festival travel rush this year (from January 26th to March 5th), the flow of people across the country will hit a new record high, reaching 9 billion.

9 billion people. What is this concept? This is almost twice that of 2023 and three times that of 2019.

However, the traffic jam does not only happen during the Spring Festival, but also the daily traffic situation is not optimistic. According to the report, drivers in some cities spend more time and more money in traffic.

Not only that, but today’s transportation mode has also undergone tremendous changes compared with the past.

Although the transition to telecommuting and mixed work has reduced the traffic flow during traditional commuting hours to some extent, it has also made the traffic pattern more unpredictable than in the past, thus putting pressure on the traditional traffic management system. In addition, traffic is not limited to motor vehicles, but pedestrians are also a key factor in traffic.

Just like Shibuya Crossing in Japan, it is the busiest crosswalk in the world, with more than 2 million people crossing Tokyo every day. Every time the traffic lights change, about 2,500 pedestrians will bravely cross the four-way intersection, which is called "Shibuya Battle", and the Japan Tourism Bureau describes this crossing as "walking between manic chaos and perfect synchronization".

To make matters worse, cities are often stretched financially and materially, and cannot accommodate more people in a smaller space. In this atmosphere, how to provide solutions to alleviate congestion, reduce carbon emissions and protect the safety of citizens when they move in different places is an arduous task facing urban planners.

around the world

Methods of reducing traffic flow

Faced with this situation, cities all over the world have begun to reduce the tasks of cars on the road and adopt various strategies to stop the passage of private cars.

Paris has announced ambitious plans to become one of the most suitable places for cycling in Europe. However, the labyrinthine streets with a long history interweave ancient and modern, which limits the implementation of the plan. In order to alleviate traffic congestion, urban planners are working hard to build permanent and isolated bicycle lanes and increase 180,000 bicycle parking spaces.

London is another ancient European city that deals with traffic jams and air pollution. The city is expanding its ultra-low emission zone (ULEZ) to cover the whole city. For this reason, old car owners with high emissions are required to pay a daily fee to drive anywhere in London. In addition, the design route of public transport in London is also very humanized, with a reasonable combination of different modes of travel. For example, London takes extremely short-distance walking, short-distance convenient buses and bicycles, short-distance subways and long-distance trains as the skeleton, and at the same time, it assists with the system of motorcycle self-driving charging, restricts parking spaces in the central area, and has developed car service in short rent to divert various travel needs.

In Tokyo, walking and public transportation are the two most popular modes of travel, followed by cycling. According to the report, the car utilization rate in Tokyo is the lowest in the world. Because officials are not allowed to park on the street, car owners have to pay sales tax, annual tax and biennial inspection fee to own cars, which makes it difficult and expensive to own cars in Tokyo.

Denmark uses bicycles instead of cars to solve traffic congestion. Half a century ago, the Danish capital was almost full of cars. However, after changing the policy and the street greening campaign, the roadside parking lot was replaced by safe and independent bicycle lanes, which increased the proportion of bicycles in all commuting in Copenhagen from 10% in 1970 to 35% today. In 2016, for the first time, the number of people riding bicycles exceeded that of people driving.

The urban congestion in Seoul, the capital of South Korea, was once as bad as that in Beijing. Therefore, the South Korean government doubled the gasoline tax with policy control, and imposed congestion charges on two main roads in the city center during the most congested period, each of which received 2,000 won. However, it also stipulates that if there are more than three passengers in a car, it can be exempted from payment. At the same time, the price of urban public parking lots was raised, and the number of parking spaces attached to commercial centers and office buildings was also reduced, which reduced the traffic volume of cars by 9%, including cars by 53% and doubled the traffic speed.

There are many ways for cities around the world to reduce traffic flow, such as charging higher fees for parking in busy areas or opening them only to residents, setting more parking spaces near public transport and providing more convenient driving alternatives to further reduce road congestion.

These non-technical methods to prevent the use of private cars may be effective, but they can only play a role in reducing traffic congestion. Adding intelligent traffic management technology supported by artificial intelligence can help simplify the remaining traffic congestion outside non-technical methods and make everyone’s roads faster and safer.

city planning

Is the next frontier of digital transformation.

Urban planning, especially traffic management, is a mature field of technological innovation. Artificial intelligence can process a large amount of data for forecasting modeling and respond to any change of forecasting behavior in real time, which makes it an ideal choice to solve traffic management problems.

Unprecedented progress in the field of artificial intelligence, coupled with the availability of powerful computing suitable for edge deployment and the continuous improvement of economies of scale, make smart city technology feasible in cross-regional aspects. Edge artificial intelligence can help improve the efficiency, safety and sustainability of mobile travel.

The availability of edge computing and the huge processing power required by artificial intelligence are creating catalysts for smart digital cities. Edge artificial intelligence can not only improve the results, but also be successfully applied to mature cities with aging infrastructure and fast-developing cities that are difficult to accommodate the growing population.

Facing the edge demand of smart cities, Dell Technology has launched the most comprehensive edge server product line in the industry, covering near, middle and far edge scenes. For example, the "Far Edge" server PowerEdge XR4000, as the shortest server in the PowerEdge series, is 60% shorter than the traditional data center server, and can be hung on the wall and stacked, which is very suitable for the edge scene where land is scarce.

Moreover, PowerEdge XR4000 is equipped with Intel Xeon D scalable processor, with up to 32 Pcle Gen4 channels and up to 20 processing cores, and provides more innovations by adding optional witness nodes, which makes it possible to deploy virtual machines that were previously unavailable due to delay or bandwidth constraints.

In addition, there is Dell NativeEdge, an edge operation software platform, which can support large-scale automatic management of edge infrastructure and applications and help simplify the arrangement and expansion of edge environment. Dell NativeEdge can speed up the lifecycle management of edge applications by 22 times, realizing potential cost savings, return on investment or other benefits.

As the world’s leading global infrastructure provider, Dell Technology has rich experience in handling the video workload of urban traffic and analysis cases with the help of the industry-leading computing platform Dell PowerEdge server and storage product portfolio, providing organizations with the necessary infrastructure and helping to provide end-to-end proven solutions to build a digital future.

Exploring Longquan celadon: Why is the Millennium kiln fire endless?

  Zhongxin. com, Hangzhou, November 3 rd (Shao Yanfei, Fu Feiyang) A history of Chinese ceramics, half of which is in Zhejiang; A history of Zhejiang ceramics, half in Longquan. The traditional firing technique of Longquan celadon began in the Three Kingdoms and the Jin Dynasty, flourished in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and reached its peak in the Southern Song Dynasty. It is a "cultural symbol" juxtaposed with Song Ci and Song Painting, and is also the first ceramic project selected in UNESCO’s Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

  "Longquan celadon is well deserved ‘ Porcelain sea pearl ’ , exchange and learn from each other ‘ Cultural emissary ’ 。” Dan Jixiang, president of China Cultural Relics Society, commented on Longquan celadon.

  Recently, the 5th World Celadon Conference (hereinafter referred to as Celadon Conference) was held in Hangzhou. The reporter interviewed many experts and scholars, celadon craftsmen and celadon culture lovers from home and abroad to explore the story behind Longquan Celadon — — Since it was passed down more than 1600 years ago, why is the Millennium kiln fire endless?

  The watch relay of generations

  People are the key factor in the inheritance of a skill.

  Weisyun Lo, a master of arts and crafts in China and a celadon craftsman born in 1962, is now training more than 30 apprentices. In his view, it is necessary not only to teach porcelain art, but also to inherit ingenuity. "Let more young people have creative enthusiasm for porcelain art, so as to avoid the talent gap and truly realize the inheritance and development of Longquan celadon."

  In fact, Weisyun Lo himself became famous. His teacher, Xu Chaoxing, has more than 500 skill inheritors, and has trained three China arts and crafts masters, including Weisyun Lo. The reporter from Zhongxin. com learned that the older generation of celadon craftsmen attach great importance to the inheritance of skills. It is precisely because of their generosity that Longquan celadon can be succeeded.

  "In this exhibition, I brought two works, Prosperous Life and Peace. The former conveys an all-inclusive aesthetic feeling with a round and thick shape, and the flower-drawing technology of the flourishing peony symbolizes the prosperity of the motherland; The latter combines the local cinnabar porcelain clay in Longquan with the moist plum green glaze, reflecting the minimalist beauty of Song Yun culture. " At the "Song Porcelain Dreaming of China" held in conjunction with this celadon conference — — At the celadon immersive interactive art exhibition, Xu Xing, a celadon craftsman born in 1988, said.

  Xu Xingxiao said that nowadays, the "post-waves" are endless, and he is no longer the youngest among his peers. A large number of "post-90 s" celadon craftsmen are participating in various competitions and exhibitions with excellent works.

  "I met Longquan celadon and was attracted by its literati temperament at first sight." Liu Hao, a post-90s celadon craftsman, said that Longquan celadon is in line with China’s traditional culture. He hoped to use celadon culture as a carrier to open another window for visitors to understand the cultural and social features of the Song Dynasty and appreciate colorful Chinese culture, and also to use the platform of the World Celadon Congress to let people feel the beauty of celadon and the prosperity of Song Wenhua more intuitively.

  Since the Song Dynasty, Longquan celadon has been exported to more than 50 countries in Asia, Africa and Europe. In the reporter’s opinion, celadon culture crosses mountains and seas and goes to the world from a small town located in southwest Zhejiang, which requires celadon craftsmen and young and energetic celadon culture communicators.

  Wu Aizhu, a celadon enthusiast and self-media blogger who has settled in Hangzhou, is attending the World Celadon Congress for the fifth time. "The color of Longquan celadon is very beautiful, and the exhibition of this celadon conference has made me feel refreshed." Wu Aizhu said that Hangzhou has a profound cultural heritage. Promoting and spreading Longquan celadon here is expected to gather more information flow, technology flow, commodity flow and talent flow in a short time.

  "In the training of Longquan celadon-related industries, we can build a traditional apprenticeship system, social human resources training, and ‘ Three-track system ’ Training mode. At the same time, we can introduce high-end talents and gather scientific research strength by relying on collaborative innovation platform, Industry-University-Research platform, enterprise research institute, local research institute and various research bases. " Zhou Xiaofeng, deputy director and professor of lishui university Scientific Research and Local Cooperation Department, said.

  During the opening ceremony of this year’s celadon conference, many celadon craftsmen from 1980s and 1990s participated in the activity of "Celadon UP" and had a lively discussion on the inheritance and development of Longquan celadon. Among them, some young celadon craftsmen talked to the older generation of celadon artists, exchanged creative experience and talked about future development. The "baton" of celadon culture is quietly passed on in gossip … …

  Password of Common Wealth in Porcelain

  One side’s industry is rich, and the other side’s people. Celadon is to Longquan what shoes and boots are to Wenzhou and private enterprises are to Zhejiang. Thousands of years of inheritance, the kiln fire does not go out. Entering Baoxi Township, Longquan City, 13 Gulong kilns are shining under the local repair and protection.

  In recent years, Longquan has devoted itself to decoding the genes of celadon culture, telling the stories of celadon culture, and relying on the well-preserved Gulong kiln in Baoxi Township in Ming and Qing Dynasties, it has launched the traditional dragon kiln firing activity of "never extinguishing the kiln fire", and integrated it into the special exhibition experience links such as blessing ceremony, blessing ceremony, saggar opening, online auction and dragon kiln banquet, and combined the inheritance of celadon culture with the innovative development of rural tourism.

  It is understood that the "Guyaoli B&B" in Baoxi Township is the first Longyao Celadon Living Museum B&B.. Here, visitors can see the well-preserved ancient kiln, experience the whole process of firing celadon by the ancients and enjoy the pleasure of making porcelain.

  According to the data, there are more than 60 farmhouses and homestays in Baoxi Township, and a number of fine homestays such as "returning from strangers", "Ancient Kiln", "Fengshutan Farmhouse" and "Bageshu Starry Tent Hotel" have been cultivated successively, effectively promoting the development of regional tourism.

  Take Xitou Village, Baoxi Township as an example. In recent years, the village has continuously amplified the driving role of celadon culture, effectively extended the consumption time of tourists, guided rural sages and villagers to develop cultural tourism formats, expanded the night economy, and created a "white+black" tourism consumption model. It is understood that it has achieved an average annual tourism income of more than 30 million yuan, and many derived formats have enabled villagers to increase their income and get rich at their doorstep.

  Jin Chaojun, a wanderer who has been wandering outside for many years and has been in the shopping mall for a long time, resolutely chose to return to Xitou Village for a second venture in the year of no doubt. He said that the increase in operating income is only a part of rural revitalization. More importantly, the IP of "Never Extinguish Kiln Fire" has improved the cultural consciousness and cultural self-confidence of all villagers.

  According to statistics, by 2021, Longquan celadon has more than 20,000 employees, and there are more than 2,600 celadon manufacturers and workshops, including 5 enterprises above designated size; There are many masters and young talents in celadon industry, and the annual main business income is 1.714 billion yuan. Longquan celadon industry has become one of the local pillar industries and plays an important role in promoting common prosperity.

  "Longquan celadon industrial structure still has room for further optimization and adjustment, which can be subdivided into various fields — — Create more celadon works featuring handcraft, small batch, quality and artistry; Seek breakthroughs in the fields of building ceramics, industrial ceramics, daily-use ceramics, bioceramics and special ceramics, and enhance added value … …” Zhou Xiaofeng said that Longquan celadon should also build a complete industrial chain consisting of raw material production, material research and development, equipment manufacturing, creative design, creative production, product packaging, online marketing and cultural communication.

  Iterative upgrading of porcelain-making technology

  From "looked up to" ritual vessels to "flying into ordinary people’s homes" daily necessities, Longquan celadon’s porcelain-making technology is also constantly upgrading.

  Recently, many experts, scholars and industry professionals from home and abroad enthusiastically discussed the development of Longquan celadon technology in a series of forums, such as the theme forum of "Celadon Rejuvenation and Common Prosperity", and actively offered suggestions.

  "Now the development of Longquan celadon industry is in line with the times, sharing the new achievements of scientific and technological development, and surpassing the ancients in raw material processing, molding methods and kiln firing." Zhou Shaohua, a professor at Zhejiang University and chief expert of Longquan celadon industry, said.

  Zhou Shaohua said that from the dragon kiln to the coal kiln, to the liquefied gas kiln and then to the electric mixing, the kiln and firing technology represented by the "celadon high-temperature kiln controlled by electric mixing computer automation" are enough to envy the ancients; The application of digital machine tool finishing technology to porcelain is not only accurate in modeling, but also low in cost and large in output, which is a typical example of "stones from other mountains can attack jade"

  As it says, Longquan celadon with a long history has not been lost in the long river of time, and the key lies in technology and innovation — — In 2020, Longquan celadon work "Clover Burned Porcelain Fragrance Insertion" traveled around space on the Long March 5 B carrier rocket; In July this year, Longquan celadon screen fan appeared in Hangzhou National Edition Pavilion, and more than 200 layers of celadon screen fans showed the Song Yun Fenghua &hellip that has been flowing for thousands of years; …

  "We have successfully established an innovative service platform for Longquan celadon sword industry in Zhejiang Province, and introduced advanced equipment such as intelligent kiln, four-axis linkage carving machine and glazing machine to solve the problems of mechanization, intelligence and batch production." Hu Xianru, director of Lishui Economic and Information Technology Bureau, said.

  Development is always accompanied by challenges. In the process of iterative upgrading of Longquan celadon technology, there are also problems that need to be solved urgently.

  "In terms of scientific and technological innovation, Longquan celadon scientific research investment ‘ Be short of money ’ The utilization rate of porcelain glaze is low, and the standardized production capacity needs to be improved. It is necessary to increase investment in related fields and continuously promote technological innovation. " Zhou Xiaofeng said.

  In Zhou Xiaofeng’s view, the technological innovation and artistic innovation of Longquan celadon should be inherited, transformed, integrated and innovated with cultural confidence without giving up the celadon cultural genes. "Under the condition of modern technology and diversified aesthetic development, it is inevitable to moderately carry out technological innovation and artistic innovation on traditional techniques, but it is necessary to maintain ‘ Degree ’ And ‘ Special ’ Under the premise of realizing the modern performance of traditional celadon techniques and the intangible bearing of modern cultural and creative products. "

  At present, the digital reform has also brought profound changes to Longquan celadon.

  As one of the highlights of this celadon conference, "Song porcelain dreams of China" — — The immersive interactive art exhibition of celadon attracted many participants to stop and watch. Two large digital screens in the exhibition area reproduced the past lives of Longquan celadon from four sections: Life, Rite and Music, China and World.

  "At present, we are focusing on building ‘ Longquan celadon non-legacy industry online ’ Digital application, build an online platform for celadon exhibition, build a celadon non-legacy resource library, classify, stereo record, graphic, audio and video, VR exhibition and other all-media materials into a unified database, and provide a good display and development platform for celadon craftsmen and their works. " The relevant person in charge of Longquan City said. (End)

The prices of a large number of vegetables listed in season have fallen seasonally.

CCTV News:In the early summer, a large number of seasonal vegetables were listed in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, and the prices of tomatoes, long beans, spiral peppers and other seasonal vegetables dropped significantly compared with a week ago.

In Zhengzhou Wanbang Agricultural Products Trading Market, the reporter saw that fresh seasonal vegetables such as tomatoes, long beans, spiral peppers, cucumbers and eggplants occupied half of the market, and buyers came to the goods in an endless stream. Just at 9 o’clock, many stalls had sold more than half of the vegetables.

Vegetable wholesaler Li Xin:The daily volume is about six or seven tons. Compared with the previous period, the sales volume has increased, because it is cheaper.

At present, with the centralized listing of a large number of local vegetables, the prices of some vegetables have fallen, among which the most obvious decline is tomatoes and long beans, and the prices have dropped by more than half in just one week.

Vegetable wholesaler Li Xin:(Tomatoes) Today’s price is about seventy-eight cents (per catty), which is one dollar (per catty) when it is brought to the market, compared with two dollars and sixty-seven dollars some time ago.

Vegetable wholesaler Li Jingfeng:One dollar a day (money), sold more than four dollars yesterday, and sold more than three dollars today. The prices of local dishes have all come down, and they are all cheap. The food is still going down, and everything is going down.

Market managers told reporters that every year 5-mdash; July is the seasonal correction period of vegetable prices. Recently, due to the increase in the supply of western vegetables to the East and the large number of local vegetables on the market, the average price has dropped by about 50%.

The unsatisfactory vaccination rate caused by the "rising" measles epidemic in Europe

  Cctv news(International News): Measles is a highly contagious disease, which can induce many complications and even lead to death. The World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe recently released a report that the number of measles cases in Europe in the first half of 2018 increased significantly compared with previous years, setting a record since 2010.

  The measles epidemic in Europe "rises"

  The data shows that in the WHO European region, the number of people infected with measles in 2016 was more than 5,000, and the number of infected people in 2017 reached 24,000. In the first half of 2018 alone, the number of infected people nearly doubled compared with 2017, reaching 41,000, and at least 37 people were killed.

  The unsatisfactory vaccination rate led to the outbreak of the epidemic.

  According to WHO, the number of measles cases in Europe has surged this year, reflecting that many children and adolescents are not vaccinated or are not fully vaccinated, which is caused by various reasons.

  First of all, some people living in remote areas have difficulty in obtaining immune resources provided by the public health system because of limited conditions.

  Secondly, there are people who don’t pay attention to vaccination at all ideologically.

  BBC reporter Mundasa:
  Many people think that measles is just a rash.
  But the problem is much more serious than this.
  It can induce a variety of serious complications.
  Such as brain swelling meningitis
  It can also lead to blindness and damage to the liver.

  The "anti-vaccine" campaign spread false information

  In addition, some medical experts pointed out that there are too many rumors and false information about the safety of vaccines, which has misled people. For example, in recent years, the "anti-vaccine" movement has arisen in some western countries. The evidence often cited by the campaign is a research conclusion made by a British doctor named wakefield 20 years ago, that is, there may be a link between measles, mumps and rubella vaccine and autism. This study was later proved to be seriously wrong and deceptive, and the magazine that published the relevant paper also withdrew the paper.

  However, WHO said that the publication of the paper caused panic, which led to a decline in vaccination rate and a related epidemic.

  BBC reporter Mundasa:
  The problem is social media.
  The speed of spreading these error messages is too fast.
  The influence is too wide.
  Public health experts are really worried
  Some parents choose to listen to false information.
  Without listening to the important information released by experts.
  That vaccines can save lives.
  Can protect the lives of millions of children in the world.
  Who says there is only one measles vaccine.
  Just in the past 20 years
  Saved more than 20 million lives.

  In this regard, WHO reiterated that the benefits of vaccines far outweigh the risks. Without vaccines, more diseases and deaths will occur. European countries should improve the coverage of measles vaccination to fundamentally prevent the outbreak.

"Freeing hands" has become a new trend of consumption. Have you used smart home appliances?

The sweeping robot is working. The picture comes from the Internet.

The user is controlling the smart home through the application on the mobile phone. The picture comes from the Internet.

  Recently, Ms. Zhang, who works in Wangjing, Beijing, opened the mobile APP as usual, and her fingertips were a little lighter. The Xiaomi sweeping robot in Tongzhou’s home responded and began to clean house by house according to the previously scanned route. Remote control of the cleaning robot at home, which used to appear in science fiction movies, is now the daily life of many families.

  Chatting, entertainment, housework and safety … … With the gradual maturity of artificial intelligence and Internet of Things technology, a variety of intelligent products emerge in an endless stream, from intelligent sweeping robots to smart speakers and intelligent companion robots to smart door locks and smart toilet seats. More and more smart home products "fly into the homes of ordinary people", which is becoming a popular product in life and a new trend in consumption. Data show that smart home products have become a hot spot in China consumer market, showing a trend of increasing year by year.

  "Freeing hands" has become a new trend of consumption

  How hot is smart home? In last year’s Tmall "double 11", China consumers showed the development potential of smart home industry to the society with strong purchase demand.

  "Smart homes in 2019 are very popular, but we didn’t expect to sell so well on the first day of pre-sale." The relevant person in charge of the sweeping robot brand Cobos revealed to our reporter that a product with a price of 2,699 yuan was "swept" by consumers, and 10,000 units were sold within 32 minutes of the pre-sale.

  "Smart home has become a new consumption trend. On the Tmall platform, not only smart pianos and AR voice globes have emerged ‘ Qiqi ’ Intelligent new species, traditional ‘ Black and white electricity ’ Also began to collectively transform smart home appliances. " Yang Guang, general manager of Tmall Consumer Electronics Division, said that last year, Tmall double 11’s smart home products covered 60 categories such as household cleaning, lighting, audio-visual entertainment, personal care, kitchen appliances, home security, etc., and the voice interactive products that can free hands became the latest consumption trend.

  Voice assistant is one of the focuses of smart home development at present. Alibaba’s smart speaker "Tmall Elf" can realize many functions including smart home control, mobile phone recharge, take-out, playing music and so on. The intelligent voice assistant "Little Love Classmate" is connected with many smart home devices on the Xiaomi ecological chain. According to statistics, "Little Love Classmate" has been applied on more than 100 million devices.

  The trend of intelligent home has attracted many related enterprises to enter the blue ocean of this market. Forward-looking Industry Research Institute predicts that the smart home market in China will reach 436.9 billion yuan in 2021.

  "These little tricks are especially useful."

  The emergence of 5G and the combination of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and IoT (Internet of Things) bring greater possibilities for the all-round development of smart homes.

  At last year’s Huawei HiLink Eco-conference, Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei’s consumer business, released the "Full Scene Smart Life Strategy", covering four major scenes of "Smart Home, Mobile Office, Smart Travel, and Sports Health", aiming at creating a full scene smart life experience for consumers. In addition, Huawei also released a whole house intelligent solution.

  "We have set a standard for consumers to simply experience." Zhi Hao, president of Huawei IoT, told this reporter, "Imagine working in an office in intelligent furniture, which is equipped with the whole house of Huawei. You can set working mode, rest mode, leaving mode, etc. I want to have a rest at noon. The voice says that as soon as the curtain is closed, it will help you close it, and the air purifier will be automatically put into sleep mode. Don’t look at these little tricks, they are especially easy to use. After sleeping for a while, the system was switched to working mode, and the curtain air conditioner was automatically turned on, and the experience was very good. "

  Not only Huawei, but also Xiaomi’s pace in smart home solutions is accelerating. With artificial intelligence, Internet of Things and other technologies, Xiaomi Smart Home covers a wide range of user groups and has built a wealth of application scenarios.

  Crack the "pain point" of industry development

  The rise of smart home industry can not be separated from the support of various national policies such as "Guide to the Construction of Integrated Standardization System for Smart Families" and "Three-year Action Plan for Promoting the Development of a New Generation of Artificial Intelligence Industry (2018-2020)".

  Although the smart home market has broad prospects, there are still some problems such as insufficient interconnection between products, many and scattered application scenarios, and too complicated operation.

  Since 2014, Internet companies, mobile phone manufacturers and home appliance manufacturers have entered the smart home industry, but there are huge differences between smart home brands and products, and the inability to connect with each other is the biggest "pain point" that hinders the development of the industry. Zhang Jianfeng, deputy secretary-general of china national household electric appliances commercial association, said: "The value of the Internet of Things originally lies in the synergy between devices, but in the smart home market, it is difficult to forge a linked industrial collaboration platform in a short time, which will directly affect consumers’ purchase choices."

  However, the situation is changing, and "interconnection" has been regarded as the key word of the next entrance battle for smart homes. Alibaba, Baidu, Huawei and Xiaomi all set up their own smart home platforms, and smart home devices began to "test the water" to support multiple smart home platform systems.

  "Because on the same track, we need to help each other more." Zhi Hao told this reporter, "Everyone is running on the runway, but the mode is different. Our mode is openness. I hope that our partners will give full play to their advantages and focus on their smart home appliances, and we will do our best to open the connection service."

[Song of laborers in the new era] Planting "golden seeds" brings new hope for rural revitalization.

  CCTV News:In today’s May Day special program, we are going to meet a national model worker, Wang Wenshui. He is an ordinary farmer. With his courage and boldness, he has created the history of localization and large-scale planting of American ginseng. He is a Communist party member, leading his fellow villagers to the road of poverty alleviation and common prosperity. Today, 64-year-old Wang Wenshui is still running in the fields, studying the cultivation techniques of American ginseng.

  The latest cultivation of new American ginseng varieties by busy field management

  Near the May Day holiday, it is the time for American ginseng to emerge. Wang Wenshui rushed to the ginseng field early in the morning to fight drugs and weed with the workers and busy with field management. This is his latest American ginseng variety. However, a few years ago, American ginseng could not be planted in this land.

  Wang Wenshui, Secretary of the Party Branch of Kouzili Village, Zhangjiachan Town, Wendeng District, Weihai City, Shandong Province:American ginseng itself has a kind of fungus. After we harvest American ginseng, some broken roots rot in the ground, which causes soil pollution. If you replant American ginseng, it will easily rot, and you can’t replant it for 15 to 20 years.

  Kouzili Village is the birthplace of Wendeng American ginseng, and almost all the farmland in the village has been planted with American ginseng. Because the soil can’t be recycled, villagers have to go out and rent a new piece of land after harvesting ginseng every four years. This has become one of the biggest bottlenecks restricting the development of local American ginseng. Be sure to improve the soil! With such a goal, Wang Wenshui started round after round of experiments.

  Wang Wenshui, Secretary of the Party Branch of Kouzili Village, Zhangjiachan Town, Wendeng District, Weihai City, Shandong Province:The 5 cm soil layer on the surface has good air permeability, and this bacterium is active quickly. So we turn this soil layer on the ground to the ground, to a depth of more than one meter, and suffocate this bacteria. At the beginning, I used shovels to shovel the land, and it took more than ten days to turn over an acre of land. In the later period, we had mechanization, and large-scale trucks could turn over more than two acres a day, which was very fast.

  After 10 years of long exploration, this rural "soil expert" with little knowledge has solved the planting problem that has plagued local people for decades. This year, the planting method of deep ploughing has been applied to more than 100 acres of land.

  Starting from 11 seeds, laying the industrial foundation of Wendeng American ginseng

  After dealing with American ginseng for more than 40 years, Wang Wenshui’s passion has not been diminished by the passage of time. In that year, he started from 11 seeds and achieved today’s tens of billions of industries. In 1979, 22-year-old Wang Wenshui ended his four-year military career and returned to his hometown. By chance, Shandong Medicinal Materials Company handed 11 seeds of American ginseng to Wang Jizhen, Wang Wenshui’s father-in-law, for them to try planting. I didn’t expect this "foreign seed" to be "acclimatized".

  Wang Wenshui, Secretary of the Party Branch of Kouzili Village, Zhangjiachan Town, Wendeng District, Weihai City, Shandong Province:There are a lot of planting difficulties, really a lot, and the transportation and communication are all very backward. Blindly, look at the symptoms with a magnifying glass and a microscope, and compare the books of crops. That’s it. Many things are repeated experiments step by step.

  In order to record the growth environment and emergence of American ginseng in detail, Wang Wenshui and his father-in-law moved into a deserted mountain forest and recorded the light, temperature and humidity every two hours … … Finally, a month later, 11 seeds sprouted 8 seedlings. It was these eight seedlings that laid the foundation for the development of the whole Wendeng American ginseng industry in the future. Kouzi Licun was the only successful pilot among the nine American ginseng planting sites in Shandong Province at that time. However, just because the planting area on the mountain was too small, Wang Wenshui wanted to move American ginseng into the field below the mountain to plant it. Unexpectedly, the first farmland trial planting failed. After repeated experiments and comparisons, it was found that it was the soil.

  Wang Wenshui, Secretary of the Party Branch of Kouzili Village, Zhangjiachan Town, Wendeng District, Weihai City, Shandong Province:We began to test and compare the soil of each plot, and finally we found out that there is a kind of resource on our mountain. Its book is called phosphorus-containing weathered soil, so we dug it out on the mountain and pushed it to our farmland one by one to improve the soil.

  More than 40 years have passed, and the young veterans of that year are now full of white hair. At the beginning, the eight seedlings have now become a planting scale of 55,000 mu and an annual output of more than 7,500 tons. In the American ginseng market in China, 6 out of every 10 American ginseng come from Wendeng.

  Work tirelessly to lead the whole town to get rich together.

  "Living a good life with the big guys" is Wang Wenshui’s greatest wish. On the road to rural revitalization, he led the villagers to take off their "poor hats" and sow more and more "golden seeds" in the fields of hope. In the 1980s, it cost about 2,000 yuan to buy a catty of American ginseng seeds, which was enough to build a house. It takes 1.5 kg of seeds to plant one part of American ginseng. Such a large capital investment is unacceptable to ordinary villagers.

  Tian Mingguo, a villager from Dongquan Village, Zhangjiachan Town, Wendeng District, Weihai City, Shandong Province:At that time, I was worried when I was asked to plant it. I was also afraid of losing it. Secretary Wang said, Ming Guo, there is nothing for you to plant. If you lose it, I will bear it with you. The first harvest was good, and it sold for nearly 300 thousand yuan.

  In the ginseng field of Zhangjiachan Town, Wang Wenshui can often be seen. Which one encounters planting problems and which one will not build a ginseng pond, Wang Wenshui went door-to-door to guide. Wang Wenshui also wrote the experience of seed ginseng for many years into a manuscript of seed ginseng records, and donated it unreservedly to the medicinal materials station of Wendeng District Agricultural Bureau for vigorous promotion.

  Wang Wenshui’s youngest daughter Wang Lin:When I was young, when I was eating at home, farmers came to dig up a diseased leaf of American ginseng and show it to my father. No matter whether my father ate the first bite or the last bite in the bowl, he always put down his chopsticks, read them first, and then finish the rest. Sometimes a meal may come to several people, and he may have to eat it several times before he can finish it.

  With the growing planting area of ordinary people, how can we make money without letting everyone suffer the crime of "facing the loess and facing the sky"? Wang Wenshui took out the energy of trying to plant American ginseng and began to study all kinds of planting machinery.

  Wang Wenshui, secretary of the Party branch of Kouzili Village, Zhangjiachan Town, Wendeng District, Weihai City, Shandong Province: This machine I developed is called American ginseng fertilizer spreader. I am going to study these three hoppers to hold particles, trace elements and organic fertilizer. These three hoppers flow in the ground at the same time, so that the rotary plow can rotate in the ground, which is uniform, labor-saving, labor-saving and fast.

  In addition to the fertilizer spreader, Wang Wenshui has also developed a variety of special machinery for American ginseng, such as ridging machine, ginseng washing machine and beard removing machine.

  Wang Wenshui, Secretary of the Party Branch of Kouzili Village, Zhangjiachan Town, Wendeng District, Weihai City, Shandong Province:I always feel that I am still a Communist party member, and I have benefited from my own cultivation. Why can’t I be rich by myself? I have to bring all the people in the village to be rich, so that I can be happy and feel at ease … …

  Today, in Wendeng, more than 3,000 farmers have planted American ginseng, and tens of thousands of employees have changed their lives and embarked on the road of getting rich by relying on American ginseng. Wendeng American ginseng has also grown from the earliest simple cultivation to more than 20 deep processing enterprises, and the added value of the industry has increased by more than 50%. Now Kouzili Village is ecologically livable and prosperous, and the appearance of the village has been greatly improved. During the May Day period, Wang Wenshui will also speed up preparations for the American ginseng deep processing workshop to be put into use in June.

  Wang Wenshui, Secretary of the Party Branch of Kouzili Village, Zhangjiachan Town, Wendeng District, Weihai City, Shandong Province:To be an industry, I think it is worthwhile for people to do one thing well in this life. My goal is to "push the car without falling down". As long as I have a breath, I will continue to fight for American ginseng.
