Four She Taijun debut! This scene at the Henan Lantern Festival is really a tribute to the border guards.

[Text/Observer Network Ruan Jiaqi]
Live up to expectations, the young ladies of the Tang Palace banquet, which was a hit in Henan Spring Festival Evening, are back!
Henan Spring Festival Evening "Tang Palace Banquet" Fragment
This time, they became the leaders of the wonderful night of the Lantern Festival. In the special program of the Lantern Festival broadcast by Henan Satellite TV last night (February 25th), they sneaked into the Henan Museum, crossed the brightly lit Ruyi Lake in Zhengzhou, and lingered in the Lantern Festival in Shanghe Garden on Qingming Festival, crossing the ancient and modern times and spanning the Millennium, and took the audience through a wonderful Lantern Festival eve.
At the same time, the planning behind the party made the audience praise the "intention": the first national museum actually filmed the variety show, only took five days to remake it, filmed it in six places, recorded it in the museum for the first time in China, and paid tribute to the border guards in special design …
By 10: 30 pm on 25th, according to the statistics of Weibo, bilibili, Aauto Quicker and other platforms on the whole network, the reading volume and viewing volume of the topic "Wonderful Night of Yuanxiao in Henan Museum" had exceeded 100 million. Just one word, say it countless times.
Directions → The selection of "The Fifth Volunteer" is in 26 minutes and 17 seconds.
If the previous Spring Festival Gala in Henan Province was an unexpected "king bombing", then this Lantern Festival program can simply be called the "god-sealing" that everyone expects.
The half-hour party has no host and no advertisements. With the steps of the sisters in the Tang Palace, the audience can see the grand occasion of the Tang Dynasty from the cultural relics and enjoy the cultural gluttony.
The night is already deep, and the Henan Museum, where tourists have dispersed, is quiet again. After patrolling, the security guard brother blew the Jia Hu bone flute (imitation). The graceful music of the earliest musical instrument in China and the earliest wind instrument in the world awakened the Tang figurines.
Girls stare big eyes, everything in front of them is full of novelty.
This time, instead of rushing to the Tang Palace to attend the banquet, they curiously looked at the cultural relics in the Henan Museum.
As far as the eye can see, the light flashes, and with the magical power of Wu Zetian’s golden slips, the girls cross back to Luoyang, the hometown of Tang figurines.
The fire tree and silver flowers are very lively.
A dreamlike picture of the prosperous Tang Dynasty slowly unfolded, and the magnificent atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty was fully displayed.
The girls trotted all the way to the resplendent hall of Luoyang Sui and Tang Dynasties, where a dance based on Luo Shen Fu, Seven-step Poetry and the legend of the Central Plains was being staged-the essence of Shui Yue Luo Shen, Furong Pool.
"If you are amazed, if you are graceful, if you are Youlong," they danced with lotus flowers in their hands, and their smooth and charming dance conveyed a dignified, rich and magnificent atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
In Wu Zetian’s hall of fame, I enjoyed the beautiful charm of "Shui Yue Luo Shen" from the first perspective, and some netizens "went to the top" in the barrage, and automatically substituted the perspective of "bad king":
"This is the happiness of being an emperor!" "Emperor Experience Card, Didi!" "quick! Help me to ascend the throne. ""Who is a serious person who goes to the early court! "
After swaying and dancing, the journey of the young ladies in Tang Palace is not over yet. With a light finger, a light brings them to Dengfeng Stargazing Platform.
The stargazing platform had previously appeared in a virtual form in the martial arts program "In Heaven and Earth" in Henan Spring Festival Evening;
Henan Spring Festival Evening "In Heaven and Earth"
But this time, more than 400 martial arts actors came to the real Dengfeng stargazing platform, and set off a confrontation between traditional martial arts and modern fighting on the oldest stargazing platform in China.
The soul of Henan people, in!
Besides Tang Wenhua, Song Wenhua is also a treasure.
Lantern Festival is indispensable for joy, and Miss Tang Gong also jumped into the Qingming Riverside Map to find out.
Coming to the Qingming Shanghe Garden in Kaifeng, the song and dance "Bao Qingtian" is being staged;
Boating on the river, see Huangmei Opera "Couple Watching Lights";
The classic Henan opera "The Fifth Pledge" stirred up the DNA of Henan people and triggered a chorus.
Some netizens have discovered Hua Dian: Under normal circumstances, the "She Taijun" in "The Fifth Pledge" is played by one actor, but this time there are four.
Everyone naturally thinks of the news that four border guards and soldiers died heroically in the Sino-Indian border conflict. Two of the martyrs, Xiao Siyuan and Wang Zhuoran, were from Henan.
From this, the audience thought that the unexpected move of inviting four "She Taijun" in the program was to pay tribute to the four martyrs and their families. Yang Jiajiang has been brave and loyal from generation to generation, and the phrase "Young people look forward to the frontier of meritorious service, while old people like loyalty" made people suddenly cry.
The public screen was also instantly screened by the red barrage: pay tribute to the border guards!
@ Henan Satellite TV also responded to this this morning: You are right! "The Fifth Pledge" is a tribute to the border guards!
In addition to the above traditional programs, Silence Wang, GAI, Henry and other popular singers also appeared to perform the "National Tide", all of which combined the traditional culture of the Central Plains with the culture of the Yellow River.
In particular, the antique song Lotus Crane Square Pot brought by Henry is of special significance. Lotus Crane Square Pot is the first treasure of Henan Museum. It was unearthed in Xinzheng, Henan Province in 1923 and is known as the "swan song of the Bronze Age".
It is precisely because of the excavation of a number of bronzes represented by the Lotus Crane Square Pot that the road of cultural relics protection in Henan was opened and the later Henan Museum was built.
The crane on the lotus crane square pot spread its wings and flew directly into the beautiful studio, enjoying the silky transition.
Next day, under the lotus leaves, Henry stood side by side with the lotus crane square pot, which set each other off with the dancer’s Water Clouds.
Like the Spring Festival Evening in Henan Province, the whole party is still featured with outstanding traditional culture cards, which combines the most dazzling elements in Henan’s history and culture, such as cultural relics, operas and martial arts. By combining traditional culture with modern technology, it combines heavy history with variety shows, making it more novel, interesting and fashionable.
The audience who were amazed by the Spring Festival Gala have been waiting for this Lantern Festival for a long time. Four hours before the official launch, the one-minute trailer has been pushed to the sixth place in the hot search list of Weibo by netizens.
After the live broadcast started at 18 o’clock last night, it soared to the third place in the Weibo Variety List in just five minutes. By 10: 30 pm on 25th, according to the statistics of Weibo, bilibili, Aauto Quicker and other platforms on the whole network, the reading volume and viewing volume of the topic "Wonderful Night of Yuanxiao in Henan Museum" had exceeded 100 million.
The only drawback is "too short"! Many viewers spit out that the party was only half an hour, which was not enough to watch.
Happy Lantern Festival is in full swing, and Miss Tang Palace has turned back into a Tang figurine, which is so disappointing.
In fact, the length of this special program is excusable.
According to the report of Yingxiang.com, this year is the first year for Henan Satellite TV to hold the Lantern Festival Gala. As early as the recording of the 2021 Henan Spring Festival Gala, the director team had already planned and recorded the Lantern Festival Gala.
However, with the explosion of the "Tang Palace" and the popularity of the Henan Spring Festival Evening, the creative team was deeply encouraged by the constant urging of netizens. On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, the established plan of the evening was directly overturned, and the "Fantastic Night of the Lantern Festival in Henan Museum" was re-produced in just five days to give back to the love of netizens and audiences. "Netizens are really too enthusiastic. For creators, there is nothing to return but works!"

Li Xuan, artistic director of the 2021 Henan Spring Festival Gala and Lantern Festival Gala, said frankly, "The national audience has given us the kind of enthusiasm that we have never met before, which makes us feel uneasy. We have been thinking about the reasons for the popularity of this Spring Festival Gala."
The creative teams concluded that this time the Spring Festival Gala should really be held in the hearts of the audience. "Or we have found the next step or the future development direction of the Spring Festival Gala. In any case, our purpose and our creation should follow the will of the audience, think what they think and say what they say in their hearts. When our programs went deep into the hearts of ordinary people and made programs that they loved and even wanted to spread on the Internet, we actually found the biggest traffic. "
In the view of the program group, the appearance of this Spring Festival Evening is actually the audience’s recognition of Henan culture and even Chinese culture behind it. "We will work together to tell our Henan story well and then make a sound to the whole world."
At the end of the program, I specially thanked the netizens, viewers and fans.
"Fantastic Night of Lantern Festival" is like the prequel to "The Banquet in Tang Palace". The sound of the Millennium bone flute wakes up the sleeping Tang figurines and starts a wonderful trip. Although this is a special program recorded in an emergency, the creative team did their best.
According to Mammoth News Dongfang Jinbao, this evening’s shooting location is the longest ever, and it was recorded in Henan Museum, Zhengdong New District of Zhengzhou City, No.8 Studio of Henan Radio and Television Station, Luoyang Mingtang, Qingming Shanghe Garden in Kaifeng and Dengfeng Stargazing Station. Especially, it is the first time in China to record part of the variety show in the museum.
Xu Na, the executive planner, also revealed today that this program will be launched on various platforms, including retaining two full versions of the deleted programs; The first version of the Lantern Festival party, which has been recorded before the Spring Festival, is also scheduled to be broadcast tonight or tomorrow night, with a duration of 70 minutes. The two parties have different styles, but they are also very interesting.
Xu Na finally made a little drama: In May and June this year, the team will start planning the Spring Festival Gala in 2022. "We hope more netizens can join us and participate in the early planning and collision."
She remembers that after the programs "The Banquet at the Tang Palace" and "In Heaven and Earth" exploded, many netizens wrote expositions on the Internet, and there were many articles like "Teaching you how to understand the Banquet at the Tang Palace". "Our director said that some places are almost 80% close to my own imagination, so it is said that the masters are in the private sector, and we also hope to open the door to hold our Spring Festival Evening next year."

See you every year at the World Swimming Championships, this time in Doha.

  Xinhua News Agency, Doha, February 1 ST (Reporter Liu Yang, Zhou Xin, Sun Zhe) Just half a year after the Fukuoka Swimming World Championships, the Doha Swimming World Championships will be held soon. From February 2 nd to 18 th, Doha, located in the tropical desert climate, will hold the World Swimming Championships for the first time to welcome the "carnival" of water sports.

  The World Swimming Championships was once held every four years, but it has been changed to biennial in the past 20 years, and it has become "annual" since 2021. Affected by the epidemic, the Fukuoka World Championships in 2021 was postponed twice after the Tokyo Olympic Games, and was finally held in July 2023. Budapest filled the "vacancy" in 2022. The Doha World Championships originally scheduled to be held in 2023 was "squeezed" to the beginning of 2024, making the swimming world championships held in the same year as the Olympic Games for the first time. Singapore, the host of the 2025 World Championships, was already in place, which led to the four consecutive years from 2022 to 2025.

  There are six major events in this World Championships: diving, synchronized swimming, open water swimming, water polo, swimming and high platform diving. Among them, diving, synchronized swimming, open water swimming and water polo are all Olympic qualifying events. Only swimming events do not have this sense of urgency, because it determines the Olympic qualification based on whether the results meet the standards.

  For swimmers, it is easy to reach the standard, so they give up the World Championships in Doha one after another and focus on the Olympic Games. The Doha swimming pool is slightly lacking in star flavor. China also hid Olympic champions Zhang Yufei, Wang Shun, Ye Shiwen and the new "Frog King" Qin Haiyang, and Li Bingjie was the only Olympic champion for China to swim in Doha. This also gives China’s young swimmers a chance to emerge: Pan Zhanle will attack the highest podium in the men’s 100m freestyle; Dong Zhihao has medal strength in the men’s 200m breaststroke; Zhang Zhanshuo, a 16-year-old teenager, will usher in the first adult international competition and participate in five individual competitions; Yu Yiting will perform a world-class performance in the women’s 200m medley.

  Looking at foreign famous players, American Olympic champions Ledecki, Dressel, Regan Smith, lily king and others will be absent; Canadian Olympic champion McNeil and rising star McIntosh will not play; The Australian team has 18 participants, and the women’s team has almost no famous players; Romanian short-distance freestyle star Popovich is not on the list; The Japanese team only sent 12 people to participate.

  In diving events, foreign athletes need to compete for Olympic qualifications. The main force of the China diving team, which has won the full quota, will all participate. Gemini Chen Yuxi and Quan Hongchan will once again conquer the world with the "water spray disappearance"; In addition, Cao Yuan, a three-dynasty Olympic champion who returned from injury, and Xie Si-dai, a men’s 3m springboard champion who returned from Tokyo Olympic Games last year, attracted special attention. Huang Jianjie, who is under 14 years old, is the only non-world champion and the youngest player in the team.

  In synchronized swimming, China secured a seat in Paris with the doubles and team events champions of the Hangzhou Asian Games. This time, it will participate in all 11 events of the World Championships for the first time, and Yang Shuncheng, a teenager from Beijing, will make his debut in the men’s singles competition for the first time. The new synchronized swimming rules were implemented last year. China won 3 gold medals, 1 silver and 1 bronze in Fukuoka, and will continue to meet the challenge of bidding for the Paris Olympic Games in Doha this time. Bill may, the 45-year-old godfather of American synchronized swimming, will also appear in Doha. He said that it is his greatest wish to win the qualification for the Paris Olympic Games and stand on the Olympic Games.

Liuyang, the hometown of fireworks: income from fireworks was exported overseas a hundred years ago, with an annual output value of hundreds of billions.

On October 1st and 4th, there were two fireworks displays in Orange Island, Changsha, which were the last two fireworks displays in Orange Island this year. This activity originally came from the weekend fireworks in Orange Island. Since August 28th, 2010, there will be gorgeous fireworks over Orange Island every Saturday night. These fireworks and discharge technologies are provided by companies in Liuyang, Hunan, the hometown of fireworks in China. (Text /AI Finance and Economics Intern Jiang Wenhua, Editor/Yang Shufang)
Liuyang is located on the border of Hunan and Jiangxi, in the northeast of Hunan Province, and is managed by Changsha City. In 2016, Liuyang achieved a GDP of 121.82 billion yuan, and the county economy and basic competitiveness jumped to the 19th place among the top 100 counties in China. When it comes to Liuyang, most people will think of the lyrics in Liuyang River: "Liuyang River, which bends through nine bends, reaches Xiangjiang River by 50-mile waterway"; Some people will think that this is the hometown of Tan Sitong and Wang Zhen; Others remembered that the words "Liuyang Fireworks" were printed on the fireworks wrapping paper bought during the Spring Festival.
Mashi Old Street in Mashi Village is the dividing line between Jiangxi Province and Hunan Province. One side of the street belongs to Jiangxi Province and the other side is Hunan Province. The history of fireworks in Liuyang can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty. In the fourth year of Tang Wude (AD 621), Li Yi, the founder of fireworks, was born in Mashi Village at the border of Hunan and Jiangxi. This village belongs to Fuli Town, Liling City, Hunan Province, with Shangli County, Pingxiang City, Jiangxi Province in the east and Jingang Town, Liuyang City in the north. Due to disasters and epidemics for years, Li Yi filled a small bamboo tube with nitrate, led it to ignite, and dispersed the miasma in Shan Lan with smoke, thus reducing the epidemic of plague. Soon, firecrackers filled with small bamboo tubes became popular.
Later, Li Yi passed on the firecracker production technology to his neighbors, so that they could get rid of the dilemma of "relying on the weather to eat". Because of this, Li Yi was regarded as the founder of fireworks. In the third year of Hongwu in Ming Taizu (AD 1370), the local people designated Li Yi’s birthday and April 18th of the lunar calendar as the Fireworks Festival. At present, the main producing areas of fireworks, such as Liuyang and Liling in Hunan, Shangli and Wanzai in Jiangxi, have all built Li’s ancestral temples.
During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, fireworks for entertainment appeared and became popular. Emperor Yangdi of Sui Dynasty has a poem: "There are thousands of lights on the trees, and seven flowers bloom." In the Song Dynasty, there was Xin Qiji’s "Thousands of trees bloom in the east wind night, and the stars are like rain". Liuyang, adjacent to Li Yi’s hometown, the production of fireworks reached its peak in the Northern Song Dynasty. During the Qing Dynasty, Liuyang fireworks became a tribute to the capital, and they were exported to East Asia, South Asia, Europe and America from 1875.
In 1980s and 1990s, with the re-recognition of the private economy, large and small fireworks factories began to spread in every corner of Liuyang. Most of these fireworks factories are family-based, and the workshops are just a few earth houses. Outside the earth house, there is a metal ball standing. Everyone needs to hold the metal ball to eliminate static electricity before entering the fireworks factory. In addition, no matter who wears clothes that are easy to generate static electricity, it is forbidden to enter.
1986年,浏阳花炮在摩纳哥第21届国际焰火大赛中获得金奖。这也是中国首次在国际烟花节上获得大奖。九十年代,伴随着浏阳撤县建市,花炮出口创税总额达到全市90%以上。1995年,浏阳市被国家授予“中国烟花之乡”称号。但烟花之乡一直存在散、乱、差、科技含量低等问题。此外,爆炸事故也时有发生。1998年,浏阳推进花炮产业升级,取缔了近万家非法生产的手工作坊,并制订花炮企业强制性安全生产标准。
到了2002年,浏阳烟花进入南美市场。六年后(2008年),浏阳获得北京奥运会开闭幕式焰火燃放权。在20多分钟时间里,共有12万发礼花绽放,浏阳烟花占到了整个燃放量的70%左右。奥运会开幕式的焰火表演上,由浏阳制造的29个特效烟花“脚印”,沿着北京的中轴线,从永定门、前门、天安门、故宫、鼓楼一步步走向奥运会主会场,代表奥运会从发源地雅典一步一步走到中国。
In 2010, Liuyang Fireworks Industry Cluster achieved an output value of 12.46 billion yuan and a tax revenue of 972 million yuan. In 2016, Liuyang Fireworks have been exported to more than 100 countries and regions, with a total export volume of 2.76 billion yuan, accounting for 60% of the total national export volume. However, with people paying more and more attention to environmental protection in recent years, many cities have successively issued "prohibition orders" for fireworks. Hunan plans to reduce more than 1,000 fireworks enterprises in 2017. Among them, only Liuyang will be reduced by more than 100.
Fireworks enterprises in Liuyang are divided into one, two and three categories. One type of enterprises can enjoy generous policy and financial support, followed by the second type, and the third type will be included in the key supervision and rectification targets. Many enterprises rebuild their factories, but they don’t "upgrade" easily, because upgrading means more investment, and some family enterprises are often overwhelmed. The new situation makes the future of Liuyang fireworks enterprises full of uncertainty. Just like the fireworks in Orange Island, considering the environment and other factors, the number of fireworks is decreasing year by year. How many times can it be set off next year is still unknown.

What brand is Cixi’s royal car? The research says it’s Tulia brand.

  This year is 115 years since cars were introduced into China. As a researcher of "The Origin of China Automobile History", Jiang Haicheng has been very busy recently: he will give a speech at a theme forum to commemorate the 115th anniversary of the introduction of automobiles into China. This speech mainly focuses on "Is the Empress Dowager Cixi the first car introduced to China?" It seems to be a simple topic, but it embodies Jiang Haicheng’s efforts for more than ten years.

  Jiang Haicheng, who has retired for many years, has not lived a long life. He is still busy with his favorite things. Jiang Haicheng first worked in the Beijing Planetarium. After work, his biggest hobby is studying cars. At that time, the information was underdeveloped and there were few cars. Going to the exhibition hall to see cars became his greatest pleasure. In the 1990s, more and more cars began to appear in Beijing, and Jiang Haicheng became more and more fond of cars. He resolutely left the Beijing Planetarium, where he had worked for most of his life, and became an automobile media reporter.

  As the first batch of automobile media people in Beijing, Jiang Haicheng witnessed the vigorous development of China automobile industry from scratch in the new era. Nevertheless, he is most concerned about the history of automobiles, especially the initial period of automobile development in China.

  In 2001, he published an article in China Auto News: The "Mystery" Left by Cixi’s Imperial Cars. At that time, the cars that Empress Dowager Cixi took were exhibited in the Summer Palace. About this car, some people say that it was presented to Empress Dowager Cixi by Yuan Shikai as a birthday present in 1897. This car is the second generation product of Mercedes-Benz. Many people naturally think that Empress Dowager Cixi was the first person to own a private car.

  However, in this "classic car", Jiang Haicheng did not see the logo of Mercedes-Benz, but saw a logo printed with "DURYEA" on an iron pedal. What brand is this car? When was it produced? When was it introduced into China? Jiang Haicheng raised many questions about this car.

  He began to look for answers one by one. To this end, he found the source of the statement that "the vehicle is a Mercedes-Benz second-generation car": Wang Huapeng, editor of "The Encyclopedia of China: History of Chinese Cars". Wang Huapeng, a former director of the Automobile Research Office of the Academy of Communications, told Jiang Haicheng that he made that statement out of speculation after inspecting the car in 1979. Moreover, Wang Huapeng later went to Germany to visit the Stuttgart Mercedes-Benz Museum, and found no cars with similar styles and models as Cixi’s royal cars. At this time, Jiang Haicheng basically came to a conclusion that the classic car of Empress Dowager Cixi was not a Mercedes-Benz car, but a Tulia car.

  However, in a few years, it became popular that the royal car of Empress Dowager Cixi was a Mercedes-Benz brand, and it was also said that this car was customized by Yuan Shikai through the German Embassy.

  Jiang Haicheng once again began his "rebuttal" journey. In 2005, Jiang Haicheng learned that the Ford Museum in the United States had materials of Tulia cars, and he contacted the representative of Ford Motor Company in China, hoping to find relevant materials of Cixi’s royal cars. Before long, Jiang Haicheng received a reply: In 1896, Tulia Company assembled 13 cars with the same design as Empress Dowager Cixi’s royal car, which was the third generation car of Tulia. The car used by Empress Dowager Cixi was the only survivor among the 13 cars.

  Jiang Haicheng was delighted with it, and the good news kept coming. In 2013, Mercedes-Benz held a commemorative event in Beijing to commemorate the centenary of Mercedes-Benz’s visit to China. This activity originated from a historical fact: in 1913, German businessman Franz Oster brought the first Mercedes 10/25 RS station wagon to China for the first time. This also indirectly proves once again that the royal car of Empress Dowager Cixi is not a Mercedes-Benz brand. Jiang Haicheng added that in 1897, Mercedes-Benz customized a car for Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom. On that car, the words Mercedes-Benz brand and Victoria were marked, while Cixi’s royal car did not have similar words.

  Based on these data, Jiang Haicheng believes that Cixi’s royal car has reached a conclusion for the Tulia brand. With the determination of the brand, the time when Cixi came to the Summer Palace by car also came to a conclusion: the car arrived in the Summer Palace in 1902, not in 1897. In 1897, faced with the threat of reform forces, Empress Dowager Cixi had no intention of holding a birthday celebration. Moreover, in the trade environment at that time, cars produced in the United States in 1896 would not have spread to China so quickly. According to historical records, in 1902 after the Gengzi Incident, Empress Dowager Cixi rebuilt the Summer Palace and held her 68th birthday in the Summer Palace. At this time, Yuan Shikai had a chance to get on the bus. However, by 1902, this car of Empress Dowager Cixi was not the first car introduced to China. In December 1901, LINZ, a Hungarian businessman, transported two American-made "Osmo Bill" cars to the Shanghai Public Concession. On January 30, 1902, the Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Industry and Commerce granted him a "temporary license" to drive on the streets, which was the first time that a car appeared in China.

  The debate that lasted for more than ten years finally came to the bottom. In his latest speech, Jiang Haicheng systematically demonstrated from eight aspects that the imperial car of Empress Dowager Cixi was not "the first car introduced into China". Looking back on these years’ efforts, Jiang Haicheng sighed and said softly and firmly, "I finally handed in a valid answer sheet when the car was introduced to China for 115 years."

  Jiang Haicheng told reporters that during the research, he wrote to Mr. Dan Jixiang, president of the Palace Museum, and Mr. Li Guorong, deputy director of the First Historical Archives of China, hoping that they could help him find the old photos of Empress Dowager Cixi and the car. The two gentlemen tried their best to find no relevant pictures, and they specially wrote back to Jiang Haicheng to express their apologies, which made Jiang Haicheng feel extremely warm. Jiang Haicheng also hopes to seek relevant pictures from readers through Beijing Evening News to enrich the research results. Jiang baojun

He explained the significance of intelligent social governance by comparing digital social governance with intelligent social governance in key areas, technical essentials, governance means, tasks and objectives. He mentioned that in the governance of intelligent society, the key value of data opening and sharing lies in optimizing the construction and urban planning of social intelligent cities, and improving the personalization and generalization of social services.

In addition, a personal information protection fund can be established to mobilize multiple forces to protect personal information rights and interests.

Zeng Runxi, a teacher and doctoral supervisor of Chongqing University, shared his research results with the theme of improving the governance efficiency of intelligent society. He mentioned that in order to optimize the governance path of intelligent society, it is necessary to realize "upper and lower governance" and form different role setting structures in digital space and physical space. The upper layer needs to control more management scope through technology, and the lower layer needs more information and data to realize administrative transaction processing.
