　　The data shows that in the first half of 2024, the operating income of cultural and related industries enterprises above designated size nationwide totaled 6,496.1 billion yuan, achieving a steady growth of 7.5% over the same period of last year. Among them, the operating income of 16 industries with distinctive new cultural format features reached 2,702.4 billion yuan, up 11.2% over the same period of last year, which was 3.7 percentage points higher than that of all cultural enterprises above designated size, highlighting the strong momentum of vigorous development and innovation of China’s cultural industry.

　　Culture makes the country prosperous and the nation strong. Deepening the reform of cultural system and mechanism is an inherent requirement to promote high-quality development and an important part of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way. "the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China’s Decision on Further Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese Modernization" focuses on the important mission of continuing the Chinese context and promoting cultural prosperity, focusing on building a socialist cultural power, putting forward the important task of deepening the reform of cultural system and mechanism, clarifying the reform path and specific measures, and providing fundamental follow-up and pointing out the direction for cultural reform and development in the new era. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has placed cultural construction in an important position in governing the country, raised the flag from a global and strategic perspective, worked out the layout of articles, and promoted the cultural construction in the new era to carry out a series of transformative practices and achieved a series of landmark achievements. Important legal documents such as the Public Cultural Service Guarantee Law and the Cultural Industry Promotion Law have been promulgated one after another, providing a solid legal guarantee for the standardized operation of the cultural market and the sustained and healthy development of the cultural industry. Deepening the reform of cultural system and mechanism at a new historical starting point and promoting cultural prosperity are related to the overall situation of Chinese modernization and the long-term stability of the country and the sustainable development of the nation.

　　At present, the results of the reform of the cultural system and mechanism benefit all the people more fairly. Museum tours, ancient city tours and non-legacy tours are favored, and the cultural tourism economy is booming; Farmers’ bookstores, community study rooms, cultural stations, etc. have opened up the "last mile" of cultural benefits for the people; Folk culture festival, drama going to the countryside, popular science lecture hall and other unique cultural activities have given people a cultural feast … … The deepening of the reform of cultural system and mechanism will further integrate the allocation of cultural resources, improve the quality and efficiency of cultural products, be conducive to the healthy development of the cultural market, and constantly promote the all-round prosperity of cultural undertakings and cultural industries. The continuous improvement of the public cultural service system has also greatly improved the quality and quantity of cultural products. According to statistics, there are over 3,300 public libraries, over 10,000 cultural centers and museums, and over 33,500 new public cultural spaces. All public libraries, cultural centers, cultural stations, art galleries and more than 90% museums have been opened free of charge, which has truly realized the concept of "barrier-free, zero threshold" public cultural service and greatly improved the level of public cultural service.

　　The power of scientific and technological innovation also provides kinetic energy for deepening the reform of cultural system and mechanism. With the rapid development of advanced information technology and the popularity of the Internet, the digital cultural industry is rising at an unprecedented speed, and technologies such as 5G and artificial intelligence are infiltrating into every corner of the cultural industry at an unprecedented speed, becoming the key force to promote the high-quality development of the cultural industry. For example, in Jiuzhouchi Scenic Area of Luoyang City in the Sui and Tang Dynasties in Luoyang, Henan Province, visitors can walk into the immersive virtual reality experience area of the TV series "The Wind Rises in Luoyang" in Hanfu and experience the cultural journey of "crossing time and space"; The National Library successfully realized the digital presentation of the ancient book Yongle Dadian by using interactive technologies such as three-dimensional virtual reality and light and shadow restoration. The successful application for the Beijing Central Axis has set a global precedent for digital technology to participate in the application for the World Heritage.

　　Optimizing personnel training is the propeller to deepen the reform of cultural system and mechanism. In the process of deepening the reform of cultural system and mechanism, it is necessary to put talent training and introduction in a prominent position and establish and improve a multi-level and multi-channel cultural talent training system. For example, Zhejiang Province launched the Zhejiang Rural Cultural Industry Operation Talents Training Program, aiming at cultivating a group of compound cultural talents who know both art and management, creativity and technology, and providing talent support for the sustained and healthy development of the cultural industry. Looking at the whole country, more than 200 colleges and universities have set up undergraduate majors related to cultural industries, which cover many directions such as cultural management, cultural industry management, cultural market operation and management, and have delivered a large number of professionals for cultural industries.

　　Deepening the reform of cultural system and mechanism is a systematic project, which needs to start from many aspects and form a joint force. Only in this way can we continuously promote the prosperity and development of China’s cultural undertakings and cultural industries, provide strong cultural soft power support for building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, and then lay a solid cultural foundation for realizing the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Special feature of 1905 film network In 2023, the box office exceeded 14 billion, and (4.5 billion) and (3.957 billion) were temporarily listed in the top two of the annual box office. And many other works that have attracted much attention have been finalized.

There are various types of films, breakthroughs in technological innovation, sublimation of artistic value, and dynamic upgrading of industrial development. When the spring blossoms in 2023, China films also ushered in a new spring.

In order to thoroughly publicize and implement the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, on the occasion of the convening of the two sessions of the National People’s Congress, the film channel launched the "Blue Feather Meeting Room" at 22:00 every night, which was specially planned — —"Dialogue in Spring", the host Lan Yu talked with the heads of China film leading enterprises, and wrote a new look of China film from different angles.

A new starting point of light and shadow, a new journey of endeavor. This program,Lan Yu talks with Committee member Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, Party Secretary, Chairman of China Film Group, Chairman and General Manager of China Film Co., Ltd., focusing on the reserve, renewal and upgrading of China Film’s entire industrial chain, and working together to build a healthy film industry ecology in China.

PART.　01

As the backbone of China films, China Film is at the forefront of the development of the times and grasps the pulse of China films. Fu Ruoqing, the head of China Film, shoulders the mission and responsibility of Commissioner Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, and has been immersed in the film industry for many years. He is committed to making suggestions on the national stage as a representative of filmmakers with rich experience and unique perspectives, showing the filmmakers’ love for China culture and their confidence and courage in jointly enhancing the soft power of China culture.

In Fu Ruoqing’s office, there are two eye-catching Chinese film Golden Rooster trophies, one belonging to and the other belonging to, which represent the honor that China Film has won in the new era.

In the new year, China Film will continue to exert its strength and strive to launch more excellent works that are applauded and popular.

Since the previous year, China Film has gradually formed an original film reserve of about 50 films each year.Up to this year, the launch of the New Year is coming soon. Including comedies and suspense films, the list of films to be shown is rich and varied.

China Film has been playing an exemplary role in China’s film industry by launching key theme works at major national time nodes. Not only that, as the industry leader, it is more active in uniting all forces in the film industry, seeking win-win cooperation and jointly promoting the continuous progress of China films.

"Our cooperation is very close and pleasant, whether it is the leading enterprises or small and medium-sized enterprises. Only when everyone grows up together, prospers the market and diversifies the film can the audience have reason to return to the cinema. " Fu ruoqing said.

In the Spring Festival of 2023, the box office was full of red, which boosted the confidence of the entire film industry.

China Film has produced many blockbusters such as Wandering Earth 2 in this Spring Festival. The box office of the Spring Festival finally reached 6.7 billion, and the total box office in January broke through the 10 billion mark. "This is rare in the past years." Fu Ruoqing said frankly that after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the film market in China recovered and ushered in a good start. As a filmmaker, he is particularly happy.

PART.　02

In recent years, China Film has seized the time to strengthen its creative and productive forces."Creative reserve, content reserve, technical support for production process, update, iteration and projection update iteration have accumulated strength for two or three years."

Take CINITY technology as an example. Compared with using other cameras to complete the corresponding shooting according to CINITY coefficient, China Film will now directly use CINITY camera to complete CINITY’s requirements on light, pixels and color. "From the end to the front, we basically opened up the industrial chain." Fu Ruoqing said.

In terms of creation, China Film has spent four years preparing to create a landmark masterpiece "Wandering Earth 2" in China’s film history.

In Fu Ruoqing’s view, hard science fiction movies are one of the most difficult to make. Because science fiction movies need a huge volume to build the future world. It needs not only the story context of suspense films, but also the structure of emotional or comedy films, and it also needs to satisfy a lot of fantastic imagination and longing.

Unlike other sci-fi films, hard sci-fi imagination can’t be swayed by the horse. For example, it is hard for the audience to believe that cars will become spherical in the future, and such film creation must be based on scientific basis.

Therefore, China Film especially emphasized the credibility of the sci-fi plot in Wandering Earth 2, and invited many scientists to escort it, providing professional scientific theoretical opinions and data calculation support for props or plots such as space elevators and moon explosions.

Hard science fiction shooting is a tedious process. After exploring Wandering Earth 1 and Wandering Earth 2, China Film gradually found its own methodology.Fu Ruoqing felt that China’s hard power has steadily improved, and the industrialization of China’s films has created high-quality conditions for hard-core sci-fi film shooting.He hopes that through the exploration and practice of Wandering Earth 2, the types of films in China will be enriched, and in the process of enrichment, the production and distribution level of films in China will be continuously improved.

As of press time, the cumulative box office of Wandering Earth 2 exceeded 3.9 billion. The film is being shown overseas in batches. In addition to painting in North America, Australia, New Zealand, Britain and other eight regions, we will meet with audiences from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Russia, the Middle East, Africa, Japan and South Korea.

Fu Ruoqing believes that the performance of Wandering Earth 2 proves that China films can have a certain international voice in science fiction films.

PART.　03

As the "vanguard" of China films,China Film Co., Ltd. took the lead in launching Wave Film Week with more than a dozen film companies including Ali, Wanda and Emperor.

Unlike other film festivals, venture capitalists pay more attention to the credibility of the film. In Wave Film Week, film companies will immediately claim, shoot, plan and then invest in the market for works that feel good. "whether it is art or business, it must be in line with the market. We will also tap talents and increase film reserves in this way, so that long-term investment can reach a higher and higher market state, and film creation will return to the proper value range. "

After the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony last year, the film channel organized the award-winning filmmakers to get together and had a round-table dialogue interview. Every filmmaker present at that time wrote down his expectations for China’s films."Healthy film ecology in China" was Fu Ruoqing’s hope at that time.

After a year, I mentioned it again, and the "head" of China Film further explained his beautiful vision to us.

"The film itself is a big ecology. After the 20 th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the creative direction of China culture and China films has become clearer, and the ecological health of creative ports should be continuously promoted. " For example, Fu Ruoqing said that true stories, original literature, original music, songs and dances are all creative sources, and extracting themes from them or integrating them into film expression is conducive to forming a virtuous circle.

In addition, as a person with public influence, he should base his character, manners, behavior and even the seriousness of film creation on a good attitude, thus forming a better ecology.

"Everything in every link should not grow up in impetuousness, so that the whole industry will be balanced and the whole ecology will be completely healthy."

To tell the story of China well and promote China’s films to "go global", Fu Ruoqing concluded that the brilliant achievements of China’s films cannot be separated from the strong support of China’s economy, China’s industry and China’s hard-core technology.

The envisaged film spring in China is a picture of unity, tension, seriousness and liveliness. What he particularly hopes is that the film ecology in China can be organically combined and complement each other, and constantly push China films forward.

"Intelligence and informatization are the development trends of the industry. Countries should strengthen exchanges and cooperation in the fields of 5G and artificial intelligence and share the fruits of technological development." During the activity of "Chinese Envoys Entering the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology" held on April 18th this year, more than 100 Chinese Envoys and representatives of international organizations visited China Unicom. When visiting China Unicom Innovation Experience Center, Lebanese Ambassador to China Miriya Jabr said.

"5G technology will bring profound changes to the world, but there is no 5G application in Botswana at present." Moluohua, Minister Counselor of Botswana Embassy in China, who was in close contact with the 5G application scene for the first time, was very interested in the digital transformation of 5G-enabled production mode in the exhibition hall. She said that the development experience of China was very inspiring and she looked forward to deepening cooperation with China in the fields of smart agriculture, education and infrastructure.

In recent years, China Unicom has made great efforts to improve its core competitiveness and sustainable development ability, achieved new results by promoting high-quality development with new weather and new actions, and helped Chinese modernization with digitalization, networking and intelligence. At the same time, China Unicom is actively building new digital infrastructure around the world to provide high-quality information and communication services to customers around the world. Especially in the past decade, China Unicom has thoroughly implemented the "Belt and Road" initiative, aiming at a new leap in development quality, a new layout of infrastructure, a new breakthrough in digital intelligence services, new scientific and technological innovations, and a new improvement in governance efficiency, expanding new space for international cooperation and building a digital Silk Road with high quality.

Building a new digital infrastructure

China Unicom not only has the international land and sea cable resources and backbone Internet with "East-West mutual aid, North-South mutual backup, land-sea cooperation and robust access" in the world, but also is providing high-quality computing load-bearing network, data center and cloud network edge integration services for users all over the world.

In July 2018, China Unicom set up a leading group to participate in the "Belt and Road" construction, and has worked out an annual action plan for the "Belt and Road" construction for six consecutive years to comprehensively promote the construction of digital information infrastructure.

In fact, the gradual maturity of China Unicom’s international business can be traced back to 2015. In May 2015, China Unicom International Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Unicom International"), which aims to provide a package of comprehensive information services to global customers, was formally established, becoming the preferred partner of international digital services for Chinese-funded enterprises to "go global" and foreign-funded enterprises to "come in".

Over the years, China Unicom has actively improved the network capabilities of countries and regions along the Belt and Road Initiative, and comprehensively planned the construction of global submarine optical cables, overseas land cables, submarine cable landing stations, international customs offices and cross-border land cables. At present, China Unicom has more than 20 land and cable border stations, and has completed interconnection with dozens of operators around it, many of which are unique resources with distinctive features. For example, several sets of large-capacity and low-delay wavelength division systems built between Shenzhen and Hong Kong are important channels connecting the mainland with Hong Kong and overseas; China-Russia, China-Mongolia and China-Kazakhstan land cables are important channels connecting Central Asia and Europe, while China-Laos, China-Vietnam and China-Myanmar land cables are important channels connecting ASEAN countries. At the same time, China Unicom enjoys capacity in more than 60 submarine cable systems, and multi-path terrestrial optical cables and multiple submarine cables in the direction of "Belt and Road" can be mutually safely backed up, connecting major countries and regions along the route. On May 12th, 2022, the SEA-H2X submarine cable initiated by China Unicom began to be laid, and it is planned to be put into operation in 2024. It will connect China, Hongkong, China, Hainan, the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore, and further extend to Vietnam, Cambodia and Indonesia. After the completion of the submarine cable, it can effectively meet the demand for network bandwidth in Asia and speed up the digital industrialization and industry digitalization in Asia and the world.

Signing ceremony of Asia-Africa-Europe No.1 submarine cable project.

However, the layout of China Unicom is far more than that.

As early as August 2017, the China-Myanmar International Cross-border Optical Cable (CMI) jointly built by China Unicom and Myanmar MPT was completed and put into operation. This optical cable is a terrestrial optical cable trunk line project starting from Ruili, Yunnan, China, and running through Myanmar to Weishuang, Bay of Bengal, opening up a new channel from China to Europe and Africa. In addition, the Asia-Europe No.5 (SMW5) and Asia-Africa-Europe No.1 (AAE-1) submarine cables invested and constructed by China Unicom form a double submarine cable coverage along the Belt and Road, which can be extended to important urban business access points in France, Germany, Italy and other countries after landing.

It is understood that the Asia-Europe No.5 and Asia-Africa-Europe No.1 submarine cables are highly coincident with the Maritime Silk Road and are important communication infrastructures of the Belt and Road Initiative. From Hongkong, China to Marseille, France, it connects 19 countries, most of which are countries and regions along the Belt and Road, which enhances the robustness and security of the overall network from China to West Asia, South Asia, Africa and Europe. It is a demonstration project to discuss, build and share global communication infrastructure.

In November 2018, the South Atlantic International Submarine Cable (SAIL) participated by China Unicom was officially put into production, with a total length of 6,000 kilometers. It is the first new intercontinental fast direct submarine cable channel across the South Atlantic and connecting the African continent and the South American continent. As an important communication infrastructure in the southern hemisphere, the South Atlantic international submarine optical cable has opened up a new channel for Internet exports in western Africa and South America, and promoted the deepening of international cooperation in the digital economy.

The Asia Direct (ADC) submarine cable project is also an important project for China Unicom to implement the Belt and Road Initiative. This project is a submarine cable project to strengthen the layout of the Asia-Pacific region. It was launched at the end of February 2020 and jointly invested by China Unicom and international operators. The submarine cable will land in China, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore and other countries, with a total length of more than 6,500 kilometers.

In order to further implement the "Belt and Road Initiative" and effectively support the construction of digital gateway in South Asia, China Unicom held the opening ceremony of Lhasa regional international communication service import and export bureau in August 2022. After the completion of Lhasa regional international communication service import and export bureau, it will meet the needs of international business development for South Asian countries, improve the service quality of international communication services for South Asian countries, and provide favorable conditions for global economic and cultural exchanges and cooperation.

China Unicom uses its own advantages to implement the innovation-driven development strategy and accelerate the realization of high-level scientific and technological self-reliance; Through the development of a unified SDN intelligent management and control platform, the enhanced functions such as customized QoS and rapid distribution of configuration of data network can be realized, and it has become one of the main service providers connecting Hong Kong and overseas in the mainland, America and Central Asia and Europe in East Asia, and Southeast Asian countries in China.

Provide quality communication services.

Quality service can create a good reputation. China Unicom continues to create value for customers and provide impetus and support for the development of the global digital economy by creating an ecosystem of countries and regions along the Belt and Road.

In many countries and regions along the Belt and Road in Europe, Africa and the Middle East, Unicom International has actively established an international talent team, rationally deployed the "Belt and Road" human resources by recruiting local people, giving full play to the advantages of global talents and enhancing customer experience.

Since the beginning of this year, Unicom International has completed the strategic layout of representative offices in Laos, Hungary and Mongolia. So far, Unicom International has more than 30 branches around the world, and more than 130 overseas business access points covering Asia, North America, Europe, Oceania, Africa and South America.

With the increase of branches, the intelligent evolution of China Unicom’s network has also achieved remarkable results. The relevant person in charge of Unicom International said that Unicom’s overseas data network has completed the evolution of SDN, and the SDN rate has reached 100%. In addition, the network robustness is continuously improved, so that the global traffic is further balanced and the network stability is effectively improved. The two indicators of Internet delay and packet loss rate remain the best in the industry throughout the year.

In terms of mobile roaming services for the public, China Unicom has included more than 100 countries and regions along the Belt and Road into the international roaming "Baotian tariff zone". Since 2020, China Unicom has lowered the international long-distance and international roaming tariffs of more than 100 countries and regions, with the largest drop of 89%. Through product optimization and tariff concessions, China Unicom has become the "chief consultant for international smart application of inbound and outbound business customers"; The number of VoLTE and 5G NSA service operators has increased from 11 to 75, and the activity of "Travel the world freely and use the traffic at will" covers China, Hong Kong, Macao, 10 ASEAN countries, Australia and New Zealand, providing great convenience for Unicom customers to use the traffic abroad. In terms of providing high-quality digital services for "going out" enterprises, we have focused on key industries such as industrial manufacturing, finance, government media, transportation and logistics, energy and e-commerce, and created "One Belt, One Road" international express products. Unicom SD-WAN products have achieved global coverage, and cloud networking services have covered the resource pools of major overseas partners. In building the "Belt and Road" circle of friends, we provide professional services to more than 3,000 corporate customers around the world, work closely with more than 1,000 partners, strengthen international exchanges and cooperation, and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results.

At present, China Unicom is providing local Internet bandwidth services to more than 200 institutions and enterprises in Hong Kong and cross-border circuit services to more than 500 institutions and enterprises. In China Unicom (Hongkong) Tseung Kwan O Smart Cloud Data Center, more than 50 government agencies and corporate customers in Internet, finance, energy, retail and other industries have settled in, enjoying the safe and reliable professional services of China Unicom. It is worth mentioning that Tseung Kwan O Smart Cloud Data Center covers the data centers of HKEx and large banks, and can realize millisecond network connection with the financial industry. The low delay of 0.2 milliseconds with HKEx is a scarce resource in the industry, and it is a veritable international financial customer service center.

On December 3, 2021, China-Laos Railway, a landmark project of building the Belt and Road with high quality, was officially opened to traffic. It is reported that China Unicom Yunnan Branch and Yunnan Telecom have overcome the difficulties of complicated terrain and achieved the coverage of the entire line of 4G network in China-Laos Railway. The tunnel adopts the way of seamless connection between communication leakage cables and outdoor signals, and realizes special functions such as Doppler frequency offset compensation, cell merger and fast switching, so as to ensure that passengers can connect to stable network signals on high-speed trains. Not only that, Yunnan Unicom also achieved 5G network coverage in key areas such as stations. After testing, the download rate reached 860Mbps.

In the future, China Unicom will continue to join hands with partners at home and abroad to build the Digital Silk Road, actively lay out the new digital information infrastructure capabilities of "high-speed ubiquity, integration of heaven and earth, integration of cloud and network, intelligence and agility, green and low-carbon, security and controllability", improve the digital intelligence service level through scientific and technological innovation, and provide new kinetic energy, new value and new wisdom for the digital economy development of countries and regions along the Belt and Road with high-quality, safe and reliable products, services and solutions.

Improve the livelihood and well-being of local people.

As the third largest population in Africa and the third largest economy on the African continent, the supply and storage conditions of medical resources in Egypt are relatively limited, with a large geographical gap and uneven distribution.

"Because of the high temperature and poor storage conditions, not only Egypt, but also most countries in Africa are facing the problem of insufficient supply of medical materials." Longfei, the project manager of China Unicom, shared his experiences in Africa and told his excitement when he learned about the demand for digital construction of cold storage: "This is a project with a thousand times more significance than profit!"

In 2022, the Egyptian government issued the goal of achieving 70% vaccination rate for all people, which put forward extremely high requirements for the local production capacity, storage capacity, cold storage capacity, deployment capacity and logistics capacity of Egyptian vaccines. China Unicom joined hands with China Kexing and China Construction Eighth Bureau to jointly build the Egyptian vaccine cold storage, and the input hardware and software customization intelligence have reached the international advanced level. At the same time, the cold storage is also the largest vaccine storage center in Egypt and even Africa, which will greatly improve the cold chain storage and transportation capacity of vaccines in Egypt in the future and further improve the vaccine supply chain in Africa.

The smart warehouse project invested by China Unicom this time has a construction area of 2,800 square meters and a storage capacity of 150 million doses. China Unicom has built an intelligent warehouse management system based on Internet of Things technology. By applying technologies such as sensors, wireless communication and cloud computing to warehouse management, it can realize automatic management from warehousing to warehousing. By improving the operation efficiency of the warehouse system, it can reduce the operating cost of cold storage and ensure the safety of vaccine storage.

"Compared with China, the local digitalization level in Egypt is relatively backward. In the past, warehouse management needed to be manually entered, and there were many categories to fill in. The process was complicated, the work was heavy, and the error rate was particularly high." Longfei pointed to the flow chart of each link of the system. "Our system effectively controls and tracks all links in the whole life cycle of the cold storage business, provides perfect information management of vaccine cold storage, reduces manual participation, reduces management costs, realizes the intelligence and automation of warehouse management, and improves the efficiency, controllability and safety of warehouse management."

Help China enterprises "go global"

Under the traction of the Belt and Road Initiative, China enterprises have actively promoted investment cooperation with countries and regions along the Belt and Road Initiative. As a representative enterprise of China’s manufacturing industry, Great Wall Motor has actively deployed all over the world, built its third overseas wholly-owned manufacturing plant in Luo Yong Industrial Park in Thailand, radiated the ASEAN region with Thailand as the center, and exported its products to other ASEAN countries and Australia.

It is the first difficult problem for Great Wall Motor to quickly put into production to carry out digital information transformation of the acquired old factories. China Unicom and Great Wall Motor actively communicate in multi-departments, multi-aspects and multi-nodes, grasp the core problems and demands in the actual operation process, respond quickly, and complete the transformation of industrial network and office network system, new monitoring system replacement, new and old unified communication system construction and wireless network coverage in the park based on the principle of utilizing the old. "It is more difficult to rebuild a factory than to build three new ones. We should not only consider the production scenarios, but also maximize the value of old industrial plants." Liu Ya Lin Rushi, project manager of China Unicom, said.

In just seven months, China Unicom and the Great Wall Motor team have worked closely together to rejuvenate the old factory from the inside out: the digital production network and international dedicated line that meet the requirements of modern production have replaced the old network infrastructure, and the IT system to ensure its domestic and foreign interconnection and cooperation has been launched in the core computer room. The electromechanical distribution and lighting equipment in the park has been more scientific and safe after deepening transformation …

Empowering digital economy to accelerate development

The year 2023 marks the 20th anniversary of China-ASEAN Expo and China-ASEAN Business and Investment Summit (hereinafter referred to as "China-ASEAN Expo" and "Summit"). Over the past 20 years, China and ASEAN countries have continuously reached a consensus on cooperation, enhanced strategic mutual trust, and strengthened cultural exchanges, thus promoting the sustained and in-depth development of China-ASEAN relations. China Unicom has always kept pace with the development of China-ASEAN Expo and the Summit, accelerated the construction of communication infrastructure and contributed to the construction of the Belt and Road Initiative.

With the rapid development of regional economy between China and ASEAN, and the rapid growth of China-ASEAN trade, people’s exchanges have become increasingly frequent. From laying the first optical cable line between Guangxi and ASEAN countries, to establishing Nanning International Bureau to build an international gateway for 10 ASEAN countries, and then to enabling China and ASEAN countries to develop their digital economy, China Unicom has actively accelerated the construction of information and communication infrastructure, and built a digital "connecting bridge" with 10 ASEAN countries through information and communication interconnection.

The construction of communication infrastructure and the improvement of connectivity have provided strong support for the development of digital economy in China and ASEAN countries. On the basis of the previous period, China Unicom has successively opened international direct channels from Nanning to Vietnam, Nanning to Laos and Nanning to Myanmar, actively expanding the outbound data services of domestic corporate customers and ASEAN countries, providing business continuity and international transmission network services for the international outbound services of domestic governments, banks and enterprises to Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand, and assisting customers to expand their international business in Southeast Asia and Europe.

At the beginning of September this year, China Unicom actively cooperated with China-ASEAN Economic and Trade Center to create a "one-stop digital communication service" window, providing specialized international communication services for domestic "going out" enterprises and "brought in" enterprises in ASEAN region, providing international digital private line services and cross-border cloud connection, cross-border office applications, overseas IDC customization, ITO and other communication services for foreign-related enterprises, as well as consulting and handling services for data traffic sharing services in 47 countries.

Up to now, China Unicom has provided more than 300 outbound business circuits for domestic industries and ASEAN countries, over 120 international inbound business circuits and over 240 cooperation projects, enabling ASEAN countries to develop their digital economy.

Expand new space for international cooperation.

Under the general trend of global market integration, China Unicom focuses on key industries such as industrial manufacturing, finance, media, transportation and logistics, energy and e-commerce, providing one-stop products and solutions for customers around the world, and continuously creating value for customers in countries and regions along the Belt and Road Initiative.

On the afternoon of December 15th, 2022, Egypt time, the glass fiber production line of China Jushi Egypt Company with an annual output of 120,000 tons was successfully ignited. After the project is put into operation, the annual production capacity of Jushi Egyptian Glass Fiber Base will reach 340,000 tons, making it the largest glass fiber production base in Africa, which not only fills the blank of glass fiber manufacturing in the whole Middle East and North Africa, but also has a "milestone" significance for the internationalization strategy of china glass’s fiber industry.

"Jushi Group has two local factories. We installed security systems for the two factories through digital means. From the LED large-screen display system of the main factory, we can understand the security situation of the whole factory and deal with it in advance." The relevant person in charge of China Unicom introduced.

To help the digital transformation of global enterprise intelligent manufacturing, we must not only base ourselves on the present, but also focus on the future. China Unicom makes full use of its successful experience in intelligent manufacturing projects for many years. While completing the wired coverage and comprehensive wiring project of the overall regional network, it also adds reserved points and related resources for the later factory capacity improvement and equipment expansion.

Guinea, located on the west coast of West Africa, is one of the countries with the richest natural resources in the world and one of the least developed countries in Africa. Guinea’s economy is dominated by agriculture and mining, and its industrial base is weak, so its food cannot be self-sufficient. China Unicom Boffa Bauxite Mine Car Networking Radio Communication Project settled here.

　　For some time, the irrational idolize behavior of fans frequently appeared in the "rice circle" has attracted the attention of all walks of life. According to the "Research Report on Internet Use of Minors in China in 2020" recently released by the Youth Rights Protection Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League and the China Internet Information Center, the proportion of underage netizens participating in fan support in China has reached 8%. Another data shows that nearly 15% of "post-00" fans spend more than 5,000 yuan for idolize every month.

　　Some organizations induce teenagers to have a bottomless idolize for their own interests, which leads to these teenagers tearing each other’s names, pulling on each other’s toes, controlling their comments and improper consumption on the Internet, resulting in bad network culture and social phenomena, and misleading and eroding teenagers’ three views.

　　Fan story

　　Tired? Disappointed? Wake up?

　　Why did they escape from the "rice circle"

　　“‘ Collapsed house ’ There may be no casualties, but many people’s hearts are broken. " Some senior fans describe the process of "powder removal" like this. Despite the pain, some people decided to leave. Why did they escape from the rice circle? What kind of mental journey is there? The reporter interviewed several former "rice circle" members.

　　■ Reason 1 "Feeling tired and not loving"

　　"I used to watch MV because I liked it, but now I want to compete with other fans."

　　Among the interviewees, many are veteran fans of idolize for four or five years or even longer, and their general feeling of leaving the "rice circle" is "tired and not in love".

　　Xiao Zhang used to be a member of a star support station. He left because it takes a lot of time and energy to "work" in the circle. "Every activity needs to produce promotional materials, prepare supporting items, organize fans to participate, etc. The work to be done is very much and very detailed, and every item must be embarrassed." In the support meeting, the division of labor among data, voting, frontline, copywriting, art design, planning and public relations is clear. Some fans said: "It is no problem to open an advertising company directly."

　　Idolize is under increasing pressure. "I used to watch the MV because I liked it. Now I have to brush it desperately to compete with other fans." Some fans said.

　　■ Reason 2 I don’t want to be a "leek"

　　"I can’t be a tool for others to show off their wealth and make money."

　　Some people deeply understand the pain and absurdity of being "cut with leeks".

　　Nowadays, an idol group should be recruited by the aid group, requiring Weibo management position candidates to raise no less than 1000 yuan, and the Chaohua (Weibo Super Topic) level is above 11; Both copywriters and artists are required to raise more funds than 500 yuan, and the level of overstepping is above 10.

　　T, a college student, has been in idolize from the fifth grade to last year. Every time the idol returns, she will spend more than 5,000 yuan to support her. What makes her uncomfortable is that fans are more and more filled with the taste of money worship, and they are divided into three, six and nine by financial strength. For example, when receiving the aid, you are required to show proof of buying an album, at least 5 copies; The ultra-call level is the lowest level of 7. It is not uncommon to say that "rich people pay, contribute strongly, don’t invest and don’t spend money, what can you prove that you love your brother?"

　　"Flower Cat Boy" told reporters that it took her nearly a year to really get rid of the influence of "rice circle". "One day after work in Ying Yuanhui, I bought all the money in Cary’s album, and there was no money left. But he was despised by a rich second generation around him. At that moment, I suddenly realized that this circle of money is very poor, and I can’t be a tool for others to show off their wealth and make money. At that moment, ‘ Fanquan ’ The aura is dim. "

　　■ Reason 3 Mind control is terrible.

　　"If you go on like this, you will lose yourself."

　　Frequently provoked online battles and mutual tears have made many fans uneasy. Fans with intense emotions are often black and white, furious when they disagree, and call names or "human flesh" opponents in public. "Now ‘ Fanquan ’ The suffocation is too heavy. " "Maruko" said with emotion, "Fans will go to war on the Internet because of a sentence, a post or even a detail."

　　Xiao Li said that in the "rice circle", "attributes" or "fans" (which star you like and which star you hate) should be clearly written. "If fans like more than one person, for ‘ Weifen ’ (only like one member of a certain group) is to reduce the flow of idols, which is disloyal and will be despised. This kind of mind control is terrible. "

　　Xiao Wang is a sophomore. Last semester, he fought all night for several tears and failed two courses. After getting the report card, this former schoolmaster felt suddenly drenched with ice water: "I spent so much energy fighting with some unnecessary people, am I crazy?" If you continue to mix like this, you will lose yourself. "

　　■ Reason 4: Idol people collapse

　　"I thought he was far away from the world, but later I found that it was so much."

　　"He was so charming when he first debuted. The lyrics are so sunny and the singing is super infectious. " Ningning used to be a fan of a famous actor, but I didn’t expect that one day "Love Bean" would "collapse".

　　When the negative news came out, Ningning’s first feeling was, "It turned out that his setup was deceptive." "I used to think that he was a genius who was far away from the secular and obsessed with music, but later I found that it was just that." So, she decisively took off the powder.

　　There are also some fans who find the contrast between the real character and the business shaping person after close contact with idols, so they take off their powder.

　　Xiao M was originally moved by the design of a star "High Cold Tearing Man". After taking photos for a long time, she found that the star would hint that she would send big-name rings and bracelets during the chat; Gifts will be rejected if they are placed in ordinary paper bags, but will be collected in seconds if they are placed in international big-name shopping bags. "I feel that he is hypocritical and does not match people." Xiao M said, "There are many similar things, which makes people feel chilling. Remind yourself to stop loss in time. "

　　Depth observation

　　Professional Fan Artist Studio Investor

　　How do they "harvest" fans

　　Why did the "rice circle" idolize set off such a frenzy? Who is behind this? The insiders believe that most young fans who contribute money are at the bottom of the "rice circle" and are just "chess pieces" in the huge game of commercial interests. With the collusion of professional fans, artists’ studios, investors and other stakeholders, they are constantly being trapped and "harvested".

　　■ Pusher 1: Professional fans

　　"Pink Head" controls fans with rhythm

　　The reporter’s investigation found that many middle school students’ fans are good students and good children in the hearts of teachers and parents. But when it comes to "brother" (the name fans call idols), they change their appearance.

　　"The logic of traffic economy is that the higher the traffic, the greater the commercial value. In other words, topicality, exposure and fan activity are the KPI of artists. " Li Wen, a former artist agent, said that "job powder" and some "powder heads", as a bridge between fans and artists’ studios, play the role of "organization" and "putting on airs", putting pressure on fans and encouraging them to do data, brush lists and vote for artists.

　　Under the control of "job powder", "rice circle" is in endless comparison and competition, ranking better than performance and ratio, "in order to make ‘ Brother ’ The ranking is a little higher, sign up for better commercial brands and get better film and television resources. "

　　Ji Weimin, a professor at China Academy of Social Sciences, said that the "rice circle" has the characteristics of strong organization, high efficiency and systematization, and its actions are uniform, requiring fans to be extremely loyal.

　　"Part ‘ Powder head ’ With ‘ Powder abuse ’ The kind of pyramid selling words can strengthen fans’ sense of mission to protect idols, induce fans to increase consumption and energy input, so that ‘ Powder head ’ ‘ Job powder ’ Wait for the relevant parties to make profits. When group activities develop to a certain stage, fans will have extreme and irrational behaviors under the influence of emotions and environment, such as fierce online battles and collective actions, and lose common sense and rationality. " Ji Weimin said.

　　In addition to mind control, it is difficult for the bottom fans to get rid of material control. Li Wen said that the "job powder" inserted by artist companies often has a rhythm of "abusing powder", deliberately stepping on it and maliciously comparing it, brainwashing fans, increasing the stickiness of "rice circles" and stimulating fans’ investment. For example, "Don’t mention love if you don’t have money" and "Don’t work hard when making data, ‘ Brother ’ The future will be destroyed in your hands "and so on.

　　Ji Weimin said that the high cost of aid not only far exceeds the affordability of minors, but also the concept of pursuing amount and keeping up with the joneses will mislead minors’ views on consumption, money and values and affect their moral judgment.

　　■ Pushing Hands 2: Artist Studio

　　"Everything looks at the flow"

　　Behind the madness of "rice circle", it is closely related to the operation mode of artist studio.

　　Li Wen, Lv Fan, the head of a film and television company, and other insiders said that most artists’ studios are run by artists’ families and lack modern enterprise management experience. Many studio staff are not professional enough and have a lot of rivers and lakes. They rely on the fame and money gained by the popularity of traffic stars in a short period of time to stimulate and condone the artists’ inflated psychology, win over the "powder head" and "professional powder" to control the "rice circle" to make money for them, and frequently break through moral and legal boundaries.

　　In the view of some artists’ agency teams, in all circles that look at traffic, "one point depends on hard work, nine points on marketing" and "a pig can take off after lying in a hot search pool several times".

　　"Helping artists to ponder acting skills and practice singing skills is far less realistic than speculating CP, buying hot search and deleting bad reviews." Lv Fan said that in order to set up artists’ marketers, artists’ teams and support clubs often have special positions to connect the channels and resources of the water army, manipulate public opinion "with rhythm", or eliminate negative comments, or lead wars with each other, making the entertainment circle and the "rice circle" filthy.

　　■ Pusher 3: Management

　　Conspiracy to manipulate the "rice circle"

　　The platform, investors and entertainment companies conspire to treat a large number of young fans who have no social experience and lack of judgment as "leeks" to collect money, induce them to raise funds to help, brush the list to do data, and increase the commercial value of artists. After expanding the market, a new round of gold fishing will be carried out, and the cycle will be repeated.

　　The management is deeply involved in the "cultivation of artists" and uses the power of fans to "generate electricity with love" to enhance the commercial value of artists. Lv Fan analyzed some star-cultivated variety shows as examples. Artists with high flow and popularity were selected by platforms, employers and entertainment companies to sign contracts, and then packaged, hyped and injected resources into the circle, inciting "rice circles" to create popularity and topicality, and buying fans and hot searches to increase the commercial value of artists. Investors will also make a second profit through the operation of the capital market.

　　The star-making assembly line has induced a strong tendency of "harvesting". Artists do not win the market with their strength and works, but rely on brainwashing fans to make the entertainment industry alienated. According to Xinhua News Agency

　　Hot review

　　How to make the "rice circle" clear?

　　For some time, the irrational idolize behavior of fans frequently appeared in the "rice circle" has attracted the attention of all walks of life.

　　There is nothing wrong with idolize, but there is no bottom line. If idolize, a fan, pursues the professional ability and personality charm of the stars, it will help the teenagers who form the main body of the "rice circle" to get positive energy, which will help them realize their self-development and identity.

　　However, the current "rice circle" unilaterally pursues "traffic is king" under the operation and entanglement of platforms and commercial capital, and some organizations induce teenagers to have a bottomless idolize for their own interests, which leads to these teenagers tearing each other’s names, pulling on each other’s feet to lead wars, brushing and judging, and improper consumption, resulting in bad network culture and social phenomena, and misleading and eroding teenagers’ three views.

　　The "rice circle" is clear, and it is necessary to focus on the problem and strike it accurately. Recently, the Central Network Information Office has thoroughly cleaned up the illegal and bad information of fan groups. At present, it has cleaned up more than 150,000 negative and harmful information and disposed of more than 4,000 illegal accounts. The State Administration of Radio and Television concentrated on the one-month special investigation and rectification of network variety shows, and issued a notice focusing on the key links of network variety shows, such as content connotation, theme type, evaluation and voting, guest personnel, topic comments and so on.

　　The "rice circle" is still clear, and the main responsibility of the platform needs to be compacted. Network platforms, especially those with concentrated "rice circles", should earnestly take responsibility, further establish and improve internal control rules and systems, reduce all kinds of unreasonable star lists, and strictly manage some marketing numbers on the platform that encourage unhealthy trends, actively filter out harmful content and dispose of bad information.

　　Still, the "rice circle" is clear, and it needs to be governed by many parties to form a joint force. As an idol, we should take the pursuit of respecting morality and art as the pursuit to convey positive energy to fans; Star brokerage team, fan support club, etc. should guide everyone to rational idolize; At the same time, families and schools should also strengthen the education and guidance for teenagers and help them establish a correct idol view.

Zigong cuisine is spicy and ubiquitous.

Jiang Lan/Wen

Since the Ming and Qing dynasties, Zigong, the salt capital, has become a rich place in Sichuan with its rich well salt. Salt merchants are extravagant, especially for delicious food. The so-called "salt skull" or "salt grandfather" cuisine has gradually sprung up in Sichuan cuisine.

Among them, there are also many celebrities, such as Mr. Yang Ziyi, a talented man from Ziliujing in the late Qing Dynasty. Apart from his famous poems and couplets, he added luster to Zigong cuisine with his exquisite food appreciation, production and innovation.

In addition, Li Qiongfu, a big salt merchant in Ziliujing, studied in Japan in the early 20th century, and besides gluttony, he also wrote a special book "Qiongfu Recipe", which was self-satisfied and widely presented. Today, we can witness the entrance of "Grandpa Yanba" cuisine.

Generally speaking, Zigong cuisine is known as Xiaohebang Sichuan cuisine among Sichuan cuisine factions. Its history embodies a style of going to extremes, a kind of urgency that can’t wait, a kind of courage that refuses stereotypes and dares to be original, supplemented by a strong taste sprint, which suddenly rises, but never falls.

Affectionate and realistic, the extreme of Zigong cuisine

In recent years, restaurants with the title of Zigong cuisine have begun to set up halls in various places, and foreigners have a strong interest in these restaurants with the title of salt-helped cuisine, salt-merchants cuisine and Xiaohe-helped Sichuan cuisine.

The dishes from Zigong, the ancient salt capital, are easy to make people think that they are salty. After careful consideration, it smacks of heresy, which reminds people of the turbulent rivers and lakes and the autumn lights in the night rain.

Silver city story

People who have never been to Zigong will never forget Zigong cuisine as long as they have read the famous novel "The Old Site" or "The Story of Silver City" by the writer Li Rui.

Li Rui’s ancestral home is in Da ‘an District, Zigong. Therefore, the "Silver City Story" carefully carved the custom of pushing brine cows for food in Zigong saltworks, so that readers can experience the details of fireside beef and beef soup pot in a thrilling process.

When it comes to Zigong cuisine, you can’t help but mention cows and saltworks customs.

In fact, these, like the salty taste of deep wells, are not the essence of the problem. Diet is a concrete reflection of people’s physical desires. Therefore, due to the attraction of salt stove profits, it constitutes a complex local geo-culture.

Jiangxi people’s tenacity, Qin people’s dryness, Xiajiang people’s stubbornness, Fujian people’s interests, and local people’s slipperiness, coupled with the Hakka people’s fortitude and honest and frank, so the blackness permeated by those rolling black bittern is not just a black heart.

To be black as brine, show the weight of black in the dark under the cut; Thick is not just playing dumb, it should be as thick as bamboo cooked with medicine, and it should be so thick that it can be invincible, so that it can be undefended.

As Mr. Li Zongwu said, whenever I talk about these things, I "deeply understand the principle of melodramatic things here". This "melodramatic principle" is very suitable for Zigong cuisine. That is, local dishes reflect an extreme style.

The top of all kinds of flavors, spicy and full of local conditions

In the folk flavor of Sichuan people’s "good spicy flavor", before the introduction of pepper, the spicy "authentic" was cornus, which was used for a long time, and it was called "Sanxiang" together with ginger and pepper.

Sichuan people do not have the tradition of eating "tree pepper", and there is no "tree pepper" that grows along the coast in the local area. After the early or middle Qing dynasty, the things that further implemented these styles were Chaotian sea pepper and tender ginger.

Zigong chaotian pepper is the first in Sichuan.

The spiciness of pepper in Zigong is far more than that in other parts of Sichuan.

In the early years, with a large number of Weiyuan people entering the salt field from Gaodong and Leigongtan to work, Chaotian sea pepper produced in Xindianzi of Weiyuan entered artesian well and Gongjing.

Chaotian sea pepper, also known as seven-star sea pepper, is often named after a handful of seven.

There is a unique reddish-brown soil in China, which is not only thin and alkaline, but also rich in potassium, zinc, calcium, phosphorus, iron and other elements, which has created a deep and persistent distinctive style of sea pepper.

There is a feature of Zigong Chaotian pepper that is unknown to outsiders, that is, the appearance of sea pepper is not long or sharp, but the tail is concave into a small pit, which is the most powerful.

Later, it was widely transplanted in Rongxian, Daan, Fushun and other areas with similar land conditions, and its spicy power was slightly weakened, but it was enough for local people to feast.

It’s just that those foreigners who don’t know the little place are suffering. As soon as they eat Zigong food, they shout that it’s delicious, and the more they eat it, the more fragrant it is, but the spicy power goes deep into the viscera, and even they are temporarily deaf.

North China canteen, full but not arrogant spirit.

In the 1920s, catering in Zigong was divided into two categories: banquet and wine and food.

Bao Xiye worships "Zhan Wang", mainly engaged in all kinds of banquet and banquet business; The wine and food industry worships "Leizu" and deals in all kinds of stir-fried dishes, cold dishes, soup dishes, rice, pasta and snacks.

The Huanhou Palace, which was completed in 1875, has always accepted the incense of the tugu industry. By the time of the Anti-Japanese War, local restaurants had been more integrated, operating five major cuisines: Sichuan, Beijing, Shandong, Guangdong and Jiangsu.

North China canteen, the most sentimental old shop in Zigong

At that time, the famous restaurants were Tiandeyuan, Minjiang, Jinguyuan, Lumingchun, Huabei Dining Hall, Shu Jiang Chun, Diaohuanglou and so on, especially Huabei Dining Hall.

The predecessor of North China Dining Hall was Xinjin Cuisine Club, and the owner Lin Guofu was a generation of strange people. He left his hometown and came to Zigong during the Anti-Japanese War, relying on his flexible mind and smooth handling. Later, he asked fellow villagers to raise funds to set up Xinjin Cuisine Club in Sansheng, operating small sales, home-cooked meals and contracting banquets.

In 1939, after the restaurant was bombed by a Japanese plane, it had to be moved to Dengganba and renamed North China Dining Hall.

Zigong’s nearly lost famous dish casserole fish head

They are unique in fish cooking technology, and have introduced some famous dishes such as casserole fish head, roasted middle section, grilled water wings, fish tail, crispy fish, sweet and sour carp fillet, etc., especially the casserole fish head is famous far and wide, which has attracted frequent visits from big salt merchants, which is actually equivalent to invisible advertisements made by salt merchants. These famous dishes were gradually integrated into the authentic Sichuan cuisine series.

It is said that Lin Guofu’s dining hall in North China was once forced to eat by scoundrels. Some people ordered seven casserole fish heads in one breath, saying that the taste was not good. However, Lin Guofu changed his smile for seven times in a row and kept asking the guests to "tolerate more", which made the strong eaters content and retreat.

This kind of magnanimity is very popular, and I’m afraid this ancient style has become a masterpiece now. Now, the North China canteen is still open, but I don’t know if those unique fish seats can still be made.

The last chef in North China canteen

Eating frogs has been a local habit for many years.

The beautiful word "from the sheep to the big" originally means "gan". The structure of "beauty" is a combination of "sheep" and "big". Obviously, it expresses the ancient people’s feelings about "sheep being big" in China.

It is worth noting that this feeling does not come from the fat body shape of the sheep, but is limited to the feeling of the taste of the sheep. This can be proved by the fact that the original meaning of beauty is "sweetness".

And what is "Gan"? Those who are "sweet" have "one from the mouth". In other words, eating food with your mouth or tasting food with your mouth can produce "sweetness".

From this sense of taste, the word "gan" in Chinese characters has the meaning of pleasure, joy and quickness at the same time. But Zigong locals are not so elegant, they just say, taste it! Bashi!

In recent years, Mark Corlan, an American, published a world-renowned masterpiece "Salt", in which he mentioned the diet of Zigong salt merchants, saying that the wealthy salt merchants were particularly particular about eating at that time: "In China, the weirder the raw materials, the more mysterious the cooking methods, the more valuable they are. Frog in soup is one of the specialties of Zigong salt merchants. Put a few sticks on a pot of salt water, put a live frog in the pot, and the frog will desperately grab these sticks and seal the pot. When the can was opened again six months later, the frog was dead. After air drying, they were cured successfully, because they were all stained with salt water. Then steam the cooked food. Salt merchants also like to eat fried frog bellies. Unfortunately, although it may be delicious, it is unacceptable, because it is said that it takes 1000 frogs to make a fried frog belly. "

This statement comes from the "Qiongfu Recipe" by salt merchant Li Qiongfu.

But I have lived in Zigong for more than 30 years, and I know that local people have a bad habit of eating frogs. One is to soak them like pickles, or smoke them. Of course, the most popular thing is to stir-fry frogs with sea pepper and shredded ginger. Many people can eat two Jin at a time, which is a famous local dish.

All kinds of delicious food can not be separated from salt.

Eat goose’s feet and catch up with the tyrant’s "punishment of branding"

In the book "Qiongfu Recipe", there is also a famous dish called "Meat Bamboo Shoots", which is Li Qiongfu’s specialty.

Its practice is: kill the fat pig in summer, gut it, take out the internal organs, and then bury the pig in the soil. A few days later, I saw pork rotting and moths rolling. At this time, take out all the moths, or fry them, or cook soup to eat.

Li Qiongfu only called this dish "bamboo shoots" when he invited guests, but he didn’t explain what it was made of. The guests ate with relish and tutted. After the meal, the eater shouted nausea and vomited on the spot.

Salt merchants are strange to eat, and there is no wonder about it, which is also listed in detail in Qiongfu Recipe.

Such as eating pig blood bubbles. The way to do this is to tie the hooves of the live big fat pig down, use a bamboo tube to hold the boiled glutinous rice porridge, pry open the pig’s mouth and pour it down hard, then kill the pig, cut open the belly, remove the blood bubbles scalded in the pig’s mouth, esophagus and stomach, and cook it with exquisite seasoning.

Braised water wings

As for salt merchants, Li Yongzhi, nicknamed "Ten Yan Wang", ate goose’s feet, and then chased after the tyrant’s "punishment of branding": a piece of land was enclosed in a small house, covered with chaff shells and lit a fire, which was a kind of small fire that could burn for a long time. Many live geese were put in, and the geese ran around on the chaff ground, and their feet were burned, quacked and thirsty, so they were fed vinegar in the famous Taiyuan well. Wait until there are many blood bubbles on the goose web, that is, cut off the goose web and cook it into a dish.

Obviously, these eating methods are already very cruel and subordinate to the enduring "violent aesthetics" in feudal times, and should be abandoned. But in turn, it responds to the point I made at the beginning: this is all caused by the taste bud style of pursuing extremism. (On, to be continued)
