Digital Countryside Colorful and Beautiful Life (Visiting the Frontline of Ten Million Projects) Countryside | Wisdom | Beautiful Life
As soon as you enter Meilin Village, Guali Town, Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, a sense of technology fills your face. By scanning the QR code of "Lixiaoer", you can quickly understand the overview of the village, where the parking spaces and public toilets are, what the main attractions and specialties are... The digital technology application within reach makes the lives of villagers more convenient and beautiful, and the "happiness" and "future" of rural life leave a deep impression on people.
"For us, the 'Ten Million Project' is the 'Happiness Project'." As soon as we met, villager Zhu Lihua opened her mouth. Over the past 20 years, the "Ten Million Project" has changed the appearance of the village: the "Wall Revolution" and the "Courtyard Revolution" have created beautiful rural houses, surrounded by bamboo in small farmhouses; Beautiful roads, rivers, and ponds form a "poetic countryside", with every step of the village becoming a picturesque sight. What makes Zhu Lihua even more proud is the application of digital technology. "You can go to the 'Beautiful Life Center' in the village to experience it, it's very convenient!"
The "Beautiful Life Center" is a "window" for the future rural construction of Meilin Village, with smart and healthy small stations, unmanned supermarkets, 24-hour rural digital study rooms, and digital elements everywhere.
At the Smart Health Station, villager Hu Tongxing took out his ID card and self registered on the Shuxin Medical Smart Multi functional Machine. The day before yesterday, he accidentally sprained while working. After being examined by the village doctor, he prescribed a plaster. When it comes to the intelligent health and hygiene services in the village, Hu Tongxing is very satisfied. "There is no need to leave the village for minor illnesses, chronic illnesses, and routine examinations. For serious illnesses, remote diagnosis and treatment are available."
"Smart healthcare, it's really great!" Villager Wang Qiuling suffers from high blood pressure. She used to have to go to a large hospital to get medicine, but now she can solve it in the village. She obtained an intelligent blood pressure monitor from the village community health service station, and usually takes blood pressure at home. The data is uploaded to the cloud in real time, and the family doctor monitors it in real time. If she finds that her blood pressure is too high, she comes to her home for diagnosis and treatment. General practitioner Chen Joseph from the village said that through the construction of "healthy brain+smart healthcare", villagers have achieved the goal of "not leaving the village for chronic disease medication". Kong Gaomin, the first secretary of Meilin Village, opened the analysis data of medical behavior in the digital rural backend management system and said, "The proportion of people choosing to seek medical treatment in the village now reaches 70%."
The cultural and sports facilities in the village are also full of wisdom. Entering the 24-hour rural study, the reporter saw a row of audiobooks that could be listened to with just a click. There is also a children's viewing area in the study. "Whenever I have time, I will bring my child here to sit down," said villager Chen Guifang. Usually, the rural study also holds children's reading clubs, "4:30 classroom", poetry recitation meetings, and other activities, which are very rich.
The digital runway by the Beitang River is the favorite place for villager Wang's official visit. "Previously, this place was overgrown with weeds, but now it has become a great place for fitness." After facial recognition, the smart device will automatically record how far you run and how many calories you burn, and display it in real-time on the screen.
"The construction of digital rural areas focuses on the needs of people's livelihoods such as healthcare, education, and leisure, empowering villagers with technology to live modern lives on the spot," said Kong Gaomin.
Digitalization improves people's livelihoods and also contributes to good rural governance. Relying on the "Lijiayuan" digital grassroots governance system, Meilin Village has created a "big neighborhood center" online - the "people call me for" section to achieve full supervision of village affairs by villagers and timely feedback from the village; "Public welfare+" attracts more people to participate in public welfare undertakings; "Wene Home" allows villagers to have cultural life with themes every month and activities every week... "Lijiayuan" is linked to village rules and regulations, and implements a point system management, fully mobilizing the enthusiasm of villagers to participate in rural construction and governance.
"Small points" leverage "social governance". "Neighborhood Help" channel, recently a village resident with 1000 points issued a notice: two skilled workers are needed to help shoot and clear rapeseed seeds. In no time, villagers helped. "Nowadays, it is becoming increasingly common for neighbors to help each other, and the recruitment of volunteer activities released by the village often relies on 'grabbing'," said Miao Wenxiao, a villager.
"Next, we need to provide more precise and convenient digital services for the villagers, and make greater efforts to build a prosperous countryside," said Kong Gaomin.
With the help of the "Ten Million Project", Meilin Village is constantly updating the "way of opening up" of rural life, and a comprehensive rural revitalization picture of "beautiful countryside+digital countryside+common prosperity countryside" is slowly unfolding.
