The Hangzhou Asian Games, which uses sports as a carrier to tell the story of China well and spread the voice of China, will contribute precious strength to the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind, with the theme of "heart to heart integration and love for the future"
The Asian Flower Theme Park, featuring over 200 varieties of fragrant flowers, has opened in Hangzhou, Zhejiang; According to legend, the torch of the Hangzhou Asian Games was enthusiastically passed through 11 cities in Zhejiang Province; Food ingredients are being stored, and catering security is ready... With the intense preparation, the Hangzhou Asian Games has entered the countdown to the opening, and all parties are making every effort to polish the details of the competition and strive for excellence to improve service levels. From venue operation and maintenance to service guarantee, from cultural exchange to urban atmosphere creation, Hangzhou will welcome visitors from all directions with a full and proud attitude.
After the 1990 Beijing Asian Games and the 2010 Guangzhou Asian Games, the Asian Games torch was lit for the third time in China. Over the past 33 years, the Asian Games have witnessed the vigorous development of China's sports industry and also recorded China's firm and powerful progress. Since the successful bid for the current Asian Games, Hangzhou, along with five co hosting cities including Ningbo, Wenzhou, Jinhua, Shaoxing, and Huzhou, have adhered to the concept of "green, intelligent, frugal, and civilized" and are committed to presenting a grand Asian Games event with "Chinese characteristics, Asian style, and splendid diversity".
This will be a green event, and the concept of green development will bear fruitful results. All Asian Games venues and office spaces use green electricity to help build the first carbon neutral Asian Games in the history of the Asian Games. One cable after another is woven into a network, delivering green electricity from thousands of miles away to the venue of the Asian Games; Electric cars shuttle busily on the streets, helping to create a new trend of green travel; Each Asian Games venue is exquisitely designed, utilizing technological means to reduce energy consumption and achieve sustainable utilization. The "Green Asian Games" embody the great country's style of protecting the ecological environment and caring for the human homeland.
This will be an intelligent event, where technological innovation is reflected in all aspects, both inside and outside the field. Entering the Asian Games Digital Management Center located in Binjiang District, Hangzhou, the energy consumption, real-time status, pedestrian and vehicle flow information of the venue are clear at a glance; On the external roads of the Shaoxing Baseball Sports and Cultural Center, autonomous buses decorated with Asian Games elements await the arrival of spectators... Thanks to the application of more technological means, the venue management of the Hangzhou Asian Games has become more refined, and the service guarantee has been comprehensively upgraded, providing viewers with a better viewing experience.
This will be a frugal event, where "simplicity but not simplicity" is both a pursuit and an action. The vast majority of the venues for the Hangzhou Asian Games were renovated, with only a small portion being newly built. For example, the squash venue of the Asian Games was temporarily renovated from the exhibition hall of the Hangzhou International Expo Center. The LED screens, audience seats, fire equipment, etc. in the venue were leased. After the competition, the venue can be demolished in the shortest possible time to restore the original functions of the exhibition hall. Frugal management does not mean giving up innovation or lowering standards, but rather spending less money, doing more things, and doing good things, adhering to the principle of "using good steel on the cutting edge".
This will be a grand event of civilization, adding new cultural scenery to the city of the Asian Games. Everywhere there is a "Asian Games flavor" and the city is full of "civilized atmosphere". Deeply carry out the three major improvement actions of "urban quality, urban governance, and urban civilization" to welcome the Asian Games, and hold more than 10000 related activities; 56 competition venues have set up approximately 10000 accessible facilities and mother and baby rooms; Promote the new practice of provincial civilization, cultivate urban culture, and enhance urban quality... comprehensively enhance the city's image, environment, and style, activate the sense of ownership of every citizen, and make "everyone is a waiter, everyone is a volunteer" a common practice, embroidering a new cultural atmosphere through meticulous carving.
More than 12000 athletes from 45 Asian countries and regions gathered by the Qiantang River to participate in this sports event. "We all have one home, our hearts intertwined, our love added, and we can't be separated from our worries. Billions of proud voices converge into one sentence, 'You and I live together in Asia.' As the theme song 'Love is with You' sings, the Hangzhou Asian Games is becoming an important opportunity to jointly create a better future for Asia and the world.". The Hangzhou Asian Games, which uses sports as a carrier to tell the story of China well and spread the voice of China, will contribute precious strength to the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind.
