The violent Meiyu that has been invading Shanghai since the beginning of the rainy season has finally come to an end. Today, without any rain, Shanghai's main theme is an authentic Huangmeitian feeling, with damp and hot glue tied together, making the body feel uncomfortable.

What are Shanghai time-honored brands thinking?, There are fewer "wonderful flowers", and Zongzi tastes more and more white rice dumplings | Zongzi | Shanghai

The Dragon Boat Festival is coming, and Zongzi is in the sales season of the year. Although they have strong seasonal characteristics, their national culinary status has not been affected. Under the wave of "domestic economy", they are increasingly attracting the attention and love of the younger generation. In this trend, various businesses are placing bets and increasing their own research and innovation efforts, hoping to create explosive products to help brands break through boundaries. Some insiders have noticed that at the moment when the taste of Zongzi is becoming more and more popular, the number of "wonderful flowers" has decreased. What are developers thinking? The taste of Zongzi continues to improve in Shao Wansheng's store on Nanjing East Road. The staff behind the Zongzi counter is busy packing for guests. As a Chinese time-honored brand with a hundred years of Zai Zui technology, this year's stores launched a total of ten Zongzi products, including alkaline water zongzi, white rice zongzi and Meigan cai zongzi.

The news of Alibaba Group's reshuffle has finally settled, and the rumor of "Xiaoyaozi's withdrawal" proves that it is not unfounded.

Is fast speed, good quality, and low energy consumption the "impossible triangle" of economic development? Shanghai enterprises crack factors | quality | economic development in this way

Speed and quality are an interesting relationship in economic development. In the early stages of development, without a certain speed, it is difficult to achieve quantity accumulation and scale expansion. But relying solely on speed and quantity, it is difficult to shake off the label of being big but not strong. Therefore, entering the stage of high-quality development and building a modern economic system, we must adhere to the principle of quality first and efficiency first. More and more companies in Shanghai are starting to let go of their speed anxiety and shift their focus from speed scale to seeking a qualitative leap.The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China issued a call to accelerate the construction of a strong manufacturing country, calling for the promotion of high-end, intelligent, and green development in the manufacturing industry. This points the way for the development of the enterprise. More than a month ago, the person in charge of the French shipping group DaFei arrived in China and signed a contract with 1 in one go

At present, urban tourism and sightseeing buses in the Spring and Autumn period are all double decker buses with various models, including convertible buses

At the end of June, the only pedestrian overpass along the Huangpu River, the Dongjiadu Flower Bridge, will be completed and opened to the public. Huaqiao not only has simple traffic functions, but also serves as a "landscape balcony" and "public reception hall.". It is just one of the six pocket parks released by the South Bund super large complex. Shanghai's urban space is scarce, and it is not easy to encounter greenery at the corner. How can a project release 6 pocket parks and how can they be creatively crafted? In the Dongjiadu area, the rising Green Bund Center is a new landmark of the South Bund Financial Agglomeration Zone. Six pocket parks are interspersed within the financial industry space, with a total area of nearly 40000 square meters.

Wrapping Zongzi, cooking rice wine, rowing dragon boats, wearing sachets... With the arrival of the Dragon Boat Festival, the leaves of Shanghai zongzi are fragrant and full of festive atmosphere.

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, we also need to sweep the courtyard and insert calamus and mugwort on the lintel. The reporter found that in recent years, people's sense of participation in the traditional customs of the Dragon Boat Festival has become stronger, and the number of participants has also become younger. "Recently, by the Huangpu River, every week there are dragon boat racing exercises and competitions. Many friends around have begun to buy wormwood to weave ropes, buy zong leaves, glutinous rice to wrap Zongzi, and cook rice wine..." Ms. Lin, a Shanghai citizen, told reporters that everyone has regained the traditional customs of the Dragon Boat Festival and "immersed" in the Dragon Boat Festival. After the leaves are spread, red beans and glutinous rice are placed, wrapped, and finally the rope is tied, a small Zongzi is born. forest
