Seize the new market, bottled mineral water rolls up and flows "low"

China Consumer News reported (reporter Meng Gang) that the hot weather in summer is the peak consumption season for bottled drinking water. This summer, the natural mineral water market is very lively, and the mainstream products have been reduced in price, and various brands have spared no effort in the competition of water sources. Experts in the industry believe that with the continuous improvement of consumers’ health awareness, natural mineral water represents the development direction of the whole drinking water industry to a certain extent.

Price competition is fierce.

According to the data released by Academia Sinica recently, the scale of China’s bottled water market has increased from 123.7 billion yuan in 2014 to more than 200 billion yuan in 2021. The statistics of national terminal retail sales in 2021 show that the proportion of drinking pure water and natural water is 60.44% and 18.44% respectively, and natural mineral water only accounts for 7.49%.

Although the market share of natural mineral water is the lowest, it also means that its market expansion space is large. Nowadays, more and more brands have launched natural mineral water products, and the price competition is becoming more and more fierce.

Recently, the reporter visited some supermarkets in Beijing and found that the average unit price of mainstream natural mineral water in the market is further lowered when the price of each bottle is less than that of 5 yuan. The prices of some brand products are already flush with the mainstream drinking natural water and purified water products in 2 yuan.

The reporter went to the Chaoyang Road store of CP Lotus Supermarket, which was on the drinking water shelf. No.I have seen natural mineral water whose price exceeds 3 yuan/bottle. Evergrande Ice Spring, which was previously priced in 5 yuan and positioned as a mid-to-high-end product, is priced at 2 yuan for each bottle of newly-installed listed products; Zhengda Haorun Natural Mineral Water sells for 2.5 yuan/bottle, Baisui Mountain Natural Mineral Water sells for 2.2 yuan in 570 ml, Nongfu Spring Changbai Snow sells for 2.4 yuan/bottle, Changbai Forest Natural Mineral Water sells for 1 yuan/bottle only, and Kelan Mineral Water sells for 3 yuan.

The reporter learned that in addition to the above-mentioned products and brand products such as Tibet 5100, Kunlun Mountain, Evian, Paris Water and Fiquan, more and more new products appear on the market. For example, Yuanqi Forest launched its mineral water sub-brand "You Kuang", the liquor company Anhui Yingjia Distillery Group launched Yingjia Mountain Spring, Haoliyou launched Haoliyou Lava Spring, Yili launched Yike Huoquan, and a new brand of mineral water named "Liangpin Huoquan" was launched in the boutique.

With the increase of entrants and fierce market competition, some high-end products have also adjusted their prices. Kunlun Mountain lowered the price of its classic mineral water products from 6 yuan to 4 yuan; The retail price of Yuanqi Forest’s "Mine" series terminal is lowered from 4 yuan/bottle to 3 yuan/bottle. Previously, the price of Evian water, which was higher than that of 10 yuan and positioned as a high-end product, also gradually declined. On July 29th, a reporter searched on an e-commerce platform and found that the price of a box of 24 bottles and 500ml products was 84 yuan, with an average price of 3.5 yuan/bottle.

Competing for water source

According to GB 8537-2018 "National Standard for Drinking Natural Mineral Water for Food Safety", drinking natural mineral water refers to water that naturally gushes from deep underground or is collected by drilling, contains a certain amount of minerals, trace elements or other components, and is not polluted in a certain area and preventive measures are taken to avoid pollution.

Earlier, Qiao Jianmin, a senior engineer of Shanghai Institute of Geology and Mineral Engineering, said in an interview with the media that domestic drinking mineral water must contain one of nine elements, including strontium, zinc, selenium, bromine, iodine and lithium, before it can be defined as natural mineral water. If it reaches one or more, it will be high-quality mineral water.

Therefore, the core competitiveness of natural mineral water lies in the water source. The quality of water source directly determines the taste, quality, mineral content and suitability for long-term drinking of mineral water.

According to the national standard, the label content of mineral water needs to indicate the source point of natural mineral water. The reporter recently visited and found that the products meet the requirements of the national standard and are marked with water sources. For example, the label of the 1-liter Baisui Mountain product is marked with "Baisui Mountain in Boluoluofu Mountain Range, Huizhou City". The reporter logged into official website of Baisui Mountain and learned that this is only one of the natural mineral water sources in China. The reporter found out that the current water sources of mainstream products in the domestic market include Changbai Mountain, Emei Mountain, Kunlun Mountain, Laoshan Mountain and Dabie Mountain.

According to the report on the consumption trend of mineral water in supermarkets in JD.COM in 2022 released by JD.COM, the water source of mineral water has become a key factor in consumers’ purchase decision, and more and more brands have added water source labels to their products. For example, Nongfu Spring’s natural mineral water brand "Changbaixue", COFCO’s water brand Yuehuo launched "Yuehuo Emei Mountain", Jiaduobao’s Kunlun Mountain mineral water and Qingdao Laoshan Mountain mineral water. Statistics show that since the beginning of this year, the number of products added to water source brands has increased by 67% year-on-year.

In addition to directly marking the water source in the brand, some brands also spare no effort in promoting the water source of their products. For example, VOSS, a high-end bottled water in northern Europe and Norway, has developed the water source of Danxia Mountain in China; In terms of Yuanqi Forest, Yuanqi Forest inspected nearly 40 water sources around the country, and listed the water source of Cangshan Geopark in Dali, Yunnan as the first water source; Yingjia Spring takes water from Huoshan County, Anhui Province, which is the core area of the first batch of national ecological protection and construction demonstration zones, with a forest coverage rate of over 76%.

Zhang Zhaoji, chairman of the Natural Mineral Water Professional Committee of China Mining Association and deputy director of the Institute of Hydrogeology and Environmental Geology of the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, said that the higher the altitude of the water source, the longer the natural filtration time it passes, the purer the water quality and the richer and more balanced the mineral content.

Represents the upgrade direction

The above report shows that in the past 12 months, the sales share of drinking natural water was 15 percentage points higher than that of mineral water. However, in terms of sales growth, mineral water exceeds drinking natural water by 8 percentage points.

The rapid growth of natural mineral water market has become a new direction for many enterprises. According to the data of Sky Eye Survey, there are nearly 33,000 mineral water-related enterprises in China whose business scope includes "natural water or mineral water" and whose status is "in business, surviving, moving in and moving out". It is worth mentioning that more than 60% of related enterprises were established in the past five years.

According to the Report on the Deep Development of Bottled Water Industry in China from 2022 to 2027 and the Investment Strategic Planning of Enterprises in the 14th Five-Year Plan issued by Academia Sinica Puhua Industry Research Institute, the scale of mineral water market in China will be about 69 billion yuan in 2020, and will continue to grow at a growth rate of about 10% in the future. It is estimated that the scale of mineral water market will exceed 100 billion yuan in 2024.

Zhu Danpeng believes that because the original categories have been occupied by imported mineral water such as Evian, Paris Water and Fiquan for a long time, the penetration of products in the consumer side is slow. Nowadays, with the continuous improvement of consumers’ health awareness, the whole drinking water industry structure is changing. It can be seen from the growth of sales of mineral water categories that the correct consumption has constantly forced the industrial side to innovate, upgrade and iterate, which is also a very important reason for the industrial upgrading of domestic drinking water in recent years.

According to the data, there are more than 4,000 qualified mineral water sources in China, and the allowable exploitation amount is 1.8 billion cubic meters per year. At present, the exploitation and utilization amount of mineral water resources is about 50 million cubic meters per year, accounting for 3% of the allowable exploitation amount.

Zhang Zhaoji believes that with the improvement of residents’ living standards, people pay more attention to drinking water health, and the health attributes of high-end natural mineral water "natural, nutritious, pollution-free and green" cater to this consumption trend. At present, the per capita consumption of mineral water in China is low, and the consumption market has great potential. How to make rational development, protection and utilization of mineral water resources and how to achieve win-win results in ecological, social and economic benefits of mineral water resources is a key point in the development of mineral water industry.

Regional characteristics become a new label for barbecue shops.

  Unconsciously, the barbecue shops around us are becoming more and more subdivided: taking the northeast as an example, Qiqihar barbecue and Yanbian barbecue … … Regional characteristics have become a popular new "label" in the barbecue industry.

  Guangdong, Jiangsu and Shandong have the most barbecue stores.

  "Roasting" is an ancient cooking method. As one of its products, barbecue has also experienced a long development process. Today, barbecue has become an indispensable part of global food culture.

  According to the relevant report of Red Meal Industry Research Institute, in recent years, the number of barbecue stores and the stock of related enterprises have both increased. By December 2023, the stock of barbecue-related enterprises in China had reached 116,000, a year-on-year increase of 12.8%. In terms of the number of stores, as of January 2024, the number of barbecue stores nationwide reached 164,000, a year-on-year increase of 2.4%.

  Which provinces and cities prefer to eat barbecue? Barbecue stores are distributed in all regions of China, among which the number of stores in East China is far more than that in other regions, accounting for 29.6%. From the perspective of provincial administrative regions, Guangdong, Jiangsu and Shandong have the largest number of barbecue stores, followed by Liaoning, Sichuan and Zhejiang.

  Korean BBQ, Japanese BBQ and Chinese BBQ … … Which one do you like best? After years of development, the barbecue category has been subdivided into several tracks. According to the style of product taste, it can be roughly divided into Korean barbecue, Japanese barbecue, Chinese barbecue, Brazilian barbecue, Turkish barbecue and fusion barbecue. Among them, the first three are the three most popular barbecue categories in China.

  In terms of price, statistics show that the per capita consumption price of brands in the range from 50 yuan to 100 yuan accounts for 65.6%, followed by those in the range from 100 yuan to 150 yuan and below 50 yuan, accounting for 17.5% and 11.1% respectively.

  Innovative ingredients and barbecue group CP

  The beef and mutton slaughtered on the same day, now cut and now mixed, combined with the dipping of nut powder, Qiqihar barbecue with strong salty taste has gained popularity on social platforms in the past year; Yanbian barbecue with Korean characteristics and sweet taste, with fruits and vegetables, mushrooms and Yunnan barbecue with different tastes dipped in water, all occupy an important position in the barbecue industry with distinctive regional characteristics.

  Previously, Chinese barbecue mainly focused on Sichuan barbecue, Hunan barbecue and Northeast barbecue. In recent years, with the increasing demand of consumers, mining local barbecue has become an important strategy for barbecue brands to redo their categories. For example, the popularity of Qiqihar barbecue and Yanbian barbecue increased significantly last year, and many tourists "went to a city for a delicious meal".

  While the barbecue category is subdivided, the barbecue products are further integrated and innovated. Some brands integrate the characteristics of other regions in products, tastes and baking methods to provide people with novel taste experience. For example, with regional snacks such as fried cakes and baked milk skins, or in the way of baking, iron plates, clay stoves, fried meat in water, barbecue on paper and so on are creatively introduced.

  Some barbecue brands will learn from the application of ingredients in other catering categories and enrich consumers’ choices by launching related products. For example, goose liver introduced into western food, dry cooked beef, or beef cut according to the shoulder, rib and outer ridge of beef.

  There are also some barbecue brands that continue to tap niche ingredients and make innovations in the combination of ingredients. For example, fruits such as litchi, mango, pineapple, and green raisin are added to the meat for roasting, which adds a touch of "exquisite" fruit aroma to the "heroic" barbecue.

  Immersive scenes create a sense of atmosphere

  Whether it’s a street shop full of rivers and lakes, a national trendy shop that combines traditional culture with modern trends, or a "one store, one concept" with different scene designs … … In recent years, many barbecue brands have sought breakthroughs in scene creation. They attract consumers by improving the dining environment and atmosphere, so that they can have a richer experience in the dining process.

  In addition, some barbecue brands actively explore the barbecue takeaway business. In order to restore the experience of barbecue consumption to the store as much as possible, the packaging and oven have been upgraded. However, in the minds of consumers, barbecue take-out still needs to be improved in terms of ingredients, safety and packaging. Text/reporter Chen Si

The original Qi Baishi received a basket of cherries from his friends, and then he gave back a bowl of cherries. After many years, this bowl of cherries asked for tens of millions.

Original title: Qi Baishi received a basket of cherries from his friends and gave back a bowl of cherries. After many years, the price of this bowl of cherries was tens of millions.

There is a famous artist and painter in China. He is gifted in painting. He was born in Xingdoutang, Xingziwu, Baishipu, Xiangtan, Changsha, Hunan Province. His name is Chun Zhi, and his word is Lan Ting. He is Qi Baishi.

I believe many people have heard the story of Qi Baishi when they were young, and they have also learned an article about Qi Baishi’s painting of dead shrimp in primary school textbooks. Qi Baishi was born at the end of feudalism, and his thoughts were still somewhat tight. He had a hard life since childhood, and eating was a problem, so these memories had a great impact on his later life.

Qi Baishi’s "haggle over every ounce" in painting

From ancient times to the present, everyone who has made great achievements in a certain field in China is broad-minded. Whether you can become everyone depends mainly on your mind, and no one who is narrow-minded becomes everyone. However, Qi Baishi is indeed an exception. Qi Baishi haggles over money, and everything else is easy to say. Qi Baishi’s accomplishments in painting can be said to be a master, but he attaches great importance to money. It is said that how much money to give him determines what the painting will look like, which is a famous trick in the industry.

Once, a friend asked Qi Baishi to draw a picture for free, but he simply drew a picture, which made his friend lose face. Of course, if someone gives a lot of money, Qi Baishi still paints very seriously. For example, a warlord in the Republic of China not only gave Qi Baishi a large sum of money, but also sent a maid. The pinnacle of Qi Baishi’s painting is this work.

In fact, Qi Baishi did this to support his family. When he was young, he was famous for his paintings, but he didn’t have much money. When he was old, he wanted to retire in his hometown, but he was caught in war and couldn’t live a stable life at all. In this way, he was invited by a friend to stay in Beijing and live there by selling paintings.

At that time, Qi Baishi’s paintings were unpopular in Beijing. Others sold four silver dollars for a painting, and he sold two silver dollars, but no one wanted to buy it. Later, he met his noble Chen Shiceng. Chen Shiceng saw Qi Baishi’s paintings and liked them very much. It also points out that he does not imitate his predecessors, but has the artistic spirit of continuous innovation, and encourages him to ignore other people’s views on him, practice in isolation, give play to his personality and go his own way. Qi Baishi later created his own school in the history of Chinese painting, and had to thank Chen Shiceng for his insight and understanding.

Qi Baishi’s experience is very bumpy. It is no wonder that he attaches great importance to money and haggles over money. It is human nature that money is very important, but once someone is rich, he will not be too concerned about money.

"Thrift" in Qi Baishi’s Life

Thinking of grandparents’ generation, many old people are frugal and even stingy. Grandparents spend a penny and break it into two halves. Now the days are still the same. Our younger generation thinks they are too stingy. In fact, they are not stingy, but they are afraid of going back to the past and those days when they can’t eat. Speaking of this, the famous painter Qi Baishi is also a "cheapskate".

Qi Baishi is notoriously stingy in the industry. He is a native of Changsha, Hunan Province. He was born in modern times. China was invaded by western powers, the court was incompetent, and people’s lives were difficult. Qi Baishi lived a very hard life since childhood. When he was very young, he went to help people herd cattle and help his family share it. When he grew up, he followed the village carpenters to learn carpentry and earn money to make a living.

Even if Qi Baishi is famous and rich, he is still very frugal and never spends money lavishly. His childhood, including the hard life before he made his fortune, left an indelible wound on Qi Baishi. There is always a "sense of crisis", but it is very uncomfortable for Qi Baishi to bring this sense of crisis into his life.

Qi Baishi put his family property in a secret place. It is said that only he knows it. He doesn’t even trust his wife and concubines, and he cares about everything himself. This is nothing. But he even has to take care of the nanny, which is somewhat unreasonable for a great painter who is busy. Several times, the nanny at home cooked, and after eating, the nanny wanted to throw away the leftovers, but Qi Baishi didn’t let the nanny throw away the leftovers after seeing them, and later he ate the leftovers himself.

"Generous" Qi Baishi sent a friend a painting of "sky-high price"

Qi Baishi achieved fame and fame all his life, but "stingy" and "stingy" are well known by people, and stingy is synonymous with him. The stories about Qi Baishi’s various meanness are often talked about by people today.

Is Qi Baishi really as stingy as people say? By reading the story behind Qi Baishi, you will find that he is really "too generous", and it is not generally generous, because if you get one of his paintings, you will become a multimillionaire!

Human nature is often like this. The more you demand it, the less you can get it. Qi Baishi treats his friends in the same way. Friends want Qi Baishi to paint for him for free, so he simply draws it. The painting is poor, and naturally it will not be valuable in the future. But the Zhang Ding mentioned above is different. He willingly worked for Qi Baishi, and didn’t buy some food to send to Qi Baishi’s house. In this way, he sent a basket of cherries to Qi Baishi that time, and Qi Baishi happily drew a picture of cherries and gave it back to Zhang Ding, and said to Zhang Ding, "The picture I promised you long ago has never been suitable. I will give you a plate of cherries today."

In this way, a basket of cherries was exchanged for a dish of cherry pictures painted by Qi Baishi. Who would have thought that at an auction in 2010, this painting was sold at a sky-high price of 24.08 million yuan, and this painting became the most valuable of Qi Baishi’s many cherry paintings in one fell swoop. Qi Baishi is also very "generous"! A basket of cherries sent by a friend brought a gift of 20.48 million. If you live in the same era as Qi Baishi, for such an interesting old man, everyone will try their best to be friends with Qi Baishi.

Speaking of this, I think readers have got some understanding of this famous painter Qi Baishi, especially interested in his "stingy" and "stingy". We all laughed at him for being stingy. We never thought that it would be good for Qi Baishi to fill his stomach in those days, nor did we think that our beautiful life today is the result of the hard work of our grandparents and even parents, who survived the hard times, so we should cherish the happy life in front of us and don’t forget the hardships of our elders!

How many years can adult undergraduate English be tested?

How many years can adult undergraduate English be tested? On this issue, I believe that many candidates who want to improve their academic qualifications will have certain interest. In view of this, Xiaobian has compiled some related contents and summarized them as follows. I believe that candidates will have a deeper understanding through the following articles.

How many years can adult undergraduate English be tested?

The validity period of the English test for adult undergraduate degree is generally three or five years. During the validity period, the results can be used to apply for an adult undergraduate degree, or as the basis for students to transfer, transfer or upgrade. However, once the validity period has passed, the results will no longer be valid, and can not be used to apply for adult undergraduate degrees, nor can they be used as the basis for students to transfer, transfer and upgrade.

What are the contents of adult college entrance examination undergraduate degree English test?

It’s not very difficult to take a degree English exam. The topics of the degree English exam in each province are different. The provincial education examination institute unifies the proposition and arranges the exam. The difficulty of the exam is generally about three levels, and the difficulty is not great. The main questions are reading comprehension, words and grammar, cloze, translation and writing.

Reading comprehension is the main part of the English test for the degree of adult examination, which mainly examines the ability to obtain information through reading, which requires both understanding ability and a certain speed of answering questions. Reading and understanding the article is extensive, but the background knowledge involved should be understandable by students, which is moderately difficult.

Then there is the part of word usage and grammatical structure, which is also a difficult question to master in the adult college entrance examination degree English test, which requires a certain grammatical foundation and a good sense of language. It mainly examines students’ ability to use vocabulary, phrases and grammatical structures.

Then there is the fault-finding part, which is actually an extension of the word usage and grammatical structure part. The purpose is to test the proficiency of candidates in mastering vocabulary, phrases and grammatical structures, and its assessment focuses on vocabulary, phrases and grammatical structures, fixed collocation and sentence patterns.

Finally, cloze and translation, which are easy to score in adult college entrance examination degree English test. Cloze articles are moderately difficult, and some options will involve some important grammatical content. However, the difficulty of translating sentences is lower than that of English articles in texts.

The above is the answer to the question "How many years can adult undergraduate English be tested?" I hope Xiaobian’s answer can answer the questions of the candidates. If candidates have other questions about the improvement of adult education, they can pay more attention to the content update of the online channel for continuing education college students.

Running is often underestimated, but when it comes to weight loss, running is never bad.

Now many fitness online celebrity, weight loss network red recommended weight loss action, always come to a sentence:

"Better than running for an hour."

"Much better than your running."

How can any action be better than running to lose weight?

This has caused many people to constantly underestimate running.

But in fact, when it comes to weight loss, running is never bad.

Many people criticize the poor weight loss effect of running, mainly from the fat burning efficiency of running.

"Sticking to this action for 30 times is better than running for an hour and so on."

It’s actually impossible.

It is also an hour’s exercise, so generally speaking, running and burning fat is better.

The picture below is a relatively normal ranking, so jogging ranks third, second only to swimming and high-intensity boxing.

In fact, the fat burning effect of Bobby’s jumping and skipping is also very good.

But the question is, can you do Bobby dance for an hour? Can you jump rope for an hour?

If you can, then you can run for an hour at a faster speed, and the calories consumed are actually similar.

And that kind of waist-twisting dance, square dance, that kind of relaxed and comfortable exercise.

The effect of losing weight can’t be better than that of running. It’s all gimmicks and lies.

The second criticism of running is that it has no shaping effect.

What is shaping? It’s the same 15% body fat. Your belly is big and others’ stomachs are small, which means people have good shaping effect.

Lifting hips, abdomen, losing worship meat and depicting back lines are all shaping.

Running has a good effect on hip and leg shaping and waist and abdomen shaping, but upper limbs have no shaping effect.

The reason why you can’t feel the shaping effect is because your body fat is too high. No matter what exercise, the shaping effect is not obvious.

For people with body fat over 30%, don’t worry about shaping or not, just lose fat.

When your body fat is 15% (25% for women), you need to shape.

At this time, you can obviously feel the tension of abdominal muscles when running. After one hour, it is more profound than practicing several groups of abdominal muscles.

You can also feel the soreness of the hip and leg muscles when running, which still has the effect of shaping the hip and leg.

Moreover, because of this long-term training, the effect of muscle recruitment is quite good, second only to heavy muscle training.

And those bird-dog, flat support and waist twisting movements, the shaping effect of lower limbs and waist and abdomen is actually not as good as running.

Finally, the key point is that the action that claims to be better than running is not necessarily better than losing weight and shaping.

Those who really lose weight and shape better than running, you may not be able to get started.

Bobby’s jumping, skipping and swimming are all better than running. Can you do it?

This screened out a large number of people.

You can do it all? Can you do the same time and density as running?

This once again screened out a large number of people.

You can still do it? At this time, at your physical level, the problem of losing weight is not exercise, but you really need to control your diet.

This level of physical fitness and athletic ability is extremely high. Will you still consider what to practice to lose weight?

For ordinary people, running is really the first choice for most people. Unless you are very heavy, running is applicable.

Many people are looking for efficient ways to lose weight, but in fact, her original meaning is still not to exercise.

It’s not only easy, but also time-saving and better. How can it be so cheap?

So stop looking, lose weight or run honestly, and control your diet at the same time. The effect and efficiency of slimming down are actually quite good.

(Going to the Grassroots in the Spring Festival) Zhejiang Sanmen Yangjia Banlong: A Centennial Inheritance to Welcome the Lantern Festival

Zhongxin. com Taizhou, February 17th (Fu Feiyang, Han Yalu) Chopping bamboo sticks, tying keels, and sticky paper … The Spring Festival holiday is drawing to a close. In the ancestral hall of Yang Jiacun, Tingpang Town, Sanmen County, Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, dozens of villagers are busy making banlong, and each link is divided in an orderly way to prepare for the Lantern Festival performance in advance.

"Every year during the Lantern Festival, we have to perform dragon-board performances in Yang Jiacun. This banlong has been used for more than 60 years, and the bamboo inside is damaged to some extent. This year, we have transformed the faucet, which will be completed on the thirteenth day of the first month (February 22nd), and we can welcome the dragon at that time. " Yang Xiangfen, a villager in Yang Jiacun, said when interviewed.
The villagers made a "dragon body". Photo courtesy of Chen Neng
Banlong, also known as "stool banlong" and "dragon blocking", is a wooden dragon lantern. Since ancient times, the local people have advocated "farming and reading", and they have always worshipped the "dragon" as a totem. As a result, the Yangjia Banlong was born, and the Lantern Festival has been passed down from generation to generation, with a history of more than 400 years. In 2007, Yangjia Banlong was included in Zhejiang provincial intangible cultural heritage.
Yang Wenxing, 61, is a well-known local veteran artist with more than 30 years of experience in making banlong. He said that Banlong pays attention to the dragon shape and emphasizes the essence of the dragon-the faucet is the key, and tying the faucet is the most test of the skill level. He has been busy making this year’s Banlong for half a month.
"When I was a child, I saw adults carrying board dragons and children carrying lanterns. The village was filled with a warm atmosphere. Since then, I have planted the seeds of Banlong and traditional culture in my heart. " Yang Wenxing said that this year happens to be year of the loong, which is of great significance and everyone attaches great importance to it.

In addition to some elders in Yang Jiacun, there are also many young faces at the Banlong production site. Some of them have studied with the master, and some have been able to complete a production step independently. In this year’s Yangjia Banlong team, young people aged between 20 and 30 also account for more than half.

Ice and fire are two days! It snows here in China! When can "folding workers" change back to Zhejiang?

Today is Friday! Is everyone a little happy? It’s a pity that the high temperature and heat wave don’t have a holiday, and Zhejiang is still the "folding work".

Yesterday, as of 17: 00, Cangnan (40℃), Hongjia (41℃) and Jiaojiangkou (39.7℃) broke the record of the highest temperature in history; Sanmen (41.8℃) and Yueqing (38.3℃) broke the record of the highest temperature in the same period in July; Wenzhou (41.4℃) and Yongjia (41.7℃) broke the record in the same period in late July.

In this early summer season, it rarely snows in Muli Town, Tianjun County, Qinghai Province.!

You are not mistaken! It just snows!

It is reported that at 22: 00 on the 17th, precipitation began to appear in Muli Town, with strong precipitation at night, which led to the continuous lowering of temperature and sleet weather. By 04: 00 on the 18th, it turned into snowfall, with a cumulative precipitation of 16.8 mm and a snow depth of 3.0 cm. As it is in the early summer season, the temperature is high, and the snow melts quickly. This snowfall weather process has no impact on traffic and livestock foraging, effectively increasing soil moisture and promoting the growth of pasture.

According to the news of "China Meteorologists", yesterday, the five western provinces, namely, western Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Ningxia, Qinghai and Tibet, suffered a very severe cooling. At 7 pm, Lanzhou has dropped to 13℃, which is more than 19℃ lower than the same period yesterday. This is a cold wave in winter; Qinghai and Qilian Mountains in Gansu Province also experienced rare heavy snow at this time, and the local temperature in Sunan of Zhangye dropped to -1℃.

Near Wulan, Qinghai, the mountain is white. From @ Zhou Yule and Me

This drastic cooling was caused by an unexpectedly intensified Mongolian cold vortex. However, it’s midsummer, and it’s dog days. It’s rare for a cold vortex to come forward and make cold air go deep south. It’s impossible to expect it to continue to hit the subtropical high. In fact, this cold vortex can only be managed for two days, and it can’t be managed in central and southern Zhejiang and Fujian, and Taiwan Province, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan and other places where the subtropical high headquarters is located.

By July 24th, with the Pacific subtropical high strengthening again, the strongest summer heat this year is about to begin, and the high temperature in the south may be extreme, and the north including the northeast may be sauna. Please cherish the coolness of these two days (if any), take time to rest and adjust, and prepare for the next round of heat.
