Nandu Big Data Research Institute will solve your puzzles through a series of data.
Competitive Power:
There are "Guangdong representatives" in the Winter Olympics
On January 27, the Chinese delegation to the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics was officially established, and a total of 17 athletes from Guangdong were selected. This marks that for the first time, there are "Guangdong representatives" on the field of the Winter Olympic Games, and the goal of "seeing gold in the winter games and meeting people in the Olympic Games" has also been achieved.

The Chinese women's ice hockey team for this Winter Olympics is based on the Shenzhen Kunlun Hongxing Ice Hockey Club, and the official list includes 23 athletes, of which Guangdong girls account for the majority. Most Guangdong athletes have played in clubs for 4 or 5 seasons, such as forward Linney representing the club in 136 league games, which is the most appearance in the history of the team; defender Wang Yuting, defender Liu Zhixin, forward Lin Qiqi and other professional league appearances on behalf of the club have also made more than 100 appearances; goalkeeper Zhou Jiaying has represented the club in 59 league games, making the most appearances in team history. In addition, Zhu Rui and Liu Zhixin are joint players trained by Guangzhou and Shenzhen. The moment they stand on the field of the Winter Olympic Games will be a historic breakthrough for Guangzhou sports.
Peng Junyue was born in 2000, originally from Leizhou City, Zhanjiang, Guangdong Province. He was selected for the national bobsleigh team through cross-border selection in 2016, and in 2019, he participated in the bobsleigh event of the Winter National Games and won the championship.

The Shenzhen Kunlun Hongxing women's ice hockey team, home to Shenzhen, has achieved many good results and won the overall championship in the 2020 Russian Women's Ice Hockey League (WHL), which is also the first world-class professional league championship in Chinese ice hockey.
Science and Technology Innovation Power:
"Guangdong Intelligent Manufacturing" Helps "Science and Technology Winter Olympics"
Outside the arena, the science and technology innovation force from Guangdong is also "escorting" the Beijing Winter Olympics and contributing to the success of the "Science and Technology Winter Olympics".
Guangzhou's intelligent medical robot "Zhi Sai La" went to the Capital Gymnasium to carry out environmental disinfection and temperature measurement as early as the test match of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. During the official competition, "Zhi Sai La" will continue to take up his post to ensure the safety of personnel inside and outside the venue with intelligent strength.
The smart restaurant located in the main media center of the Second Phase of the China National Convention Center is also "Made in Guangdong". The restaurant covers an area of 5,400 square meters and can accommodate more than 1,700 people at the same time. The intelligent and automatic catering equipment in the restaurant is developed and manufactured by Country Garden Qianxi Robot Group. All equipment can operate 24 hours a day, ensuring that the whole process of ordering, meal preparation and meal delivery is completed automatically.
The Winter Olympics will be carried out in an orderly manner, and epidemic prevention is the top priority. The wireless electronic thermometer developed by Shenzhen Refresh Intelligent Electronics Co., Ltd. will strictly control the epidemic prevention temperature at the "Ice Cube" National Aquatics Center. It is understood that it is the world's smallest existing thermometer, and the temperature measurement is very accurate, the error of detecting body temperature is only between 0.1-0.2 °C, the minimum 0.05 °C. When the person wearing the "temperature sticker" enters the base station range, the body temperature data will be automatically recorded and reported, and the background monitoring will be carried out through the digital temperature centralized monitoring system. Once a fever person appears, the trajectory of their activities in the venue is clearly visible, which is also convenient for taking follow-up personnel isolation, environmental disinfection and other related measures.
The men's ice hockey match for the Winter Olympics will be held at the National Gymnasium, where the spectator seats are created by Shenzhen Enterprise Leading Sports. Zhang Feng, deputy general manager of Leading Sports, revealed in an interview that the seat selected this time not only conforms to ergonomics and aesthetics, but also implants a chip and has a smart navigation and guidance function. Spectators only need to use the Mini Program to access the Navigation System Mini Program when entering, and entering the seat number can obtain the fastest path to the seat and other alternative routes through AR real-life navigation.
On the other hand, the helmets used by the Chinese snow team are from Dongguan, Guangdong. The helmet is developed and manufactured by the 3D Printing and Intelligent Manufacturing Research Center of Dongguan Institute of Technology, the helmet is customized according to the athlete's head circumference data, etc., and the inner cushion layer will be printed with the athlete's name, and the helmet has passed the ECE certification of the International Snow Federation.
In addition, excellent representatives of "Made in Jiangmen" such as the 222nm excimer disinfection tower, the all-round ultraviolet disinfection transmitter, and the smart lock 930-6 will also appear at the Winter Olympics.
Cultural Power:
Mascot and medal design have "Guangzhou elements"
At the Beijing Winter Olympics, the same factors of Lingnan culture are indispensable. The mascot "Ice Pier" is from the team of guangzhou academy of fine arts. The medals for this Year's Winter Olympics refer to the jade bi unearthed from the tomb of the King of Nanyue. The Winter Olympic table is also indispensable to delicious dishes from Guangdong.
The mascot of this Winter Olympic Games, "Ice Pier", was "born" in Guangzhou, and its "parents" are Cao Xue, dean of the School of Visual Arts and Design of the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, and the 14-member design team led by him. "Ice Pier" combines the image of the panda with modern technology, ice and snow sports and other elements, and the head shell shape is taken from the ice and snow sports helmet, decorated with colored halos, and the overall image resembles an astronaut. The overall design of the mascot symbolizes the creation of the extraordinary and the exploration of the future, symbolizing the strong and powerful body, tenacious will and inspiring Olympic spirit of the Athletes of the Winter Olympic Games.

The medals of this Winter Olympic Games are shaped by a ring on the front, which is inspired by the traditional string pattern. The official of the organizing committee made it clear that the design idea referred to the concentric circle pattern jade bi excavated from the tomb of the King of Nanyue. Official materials show that the Winter Olympic medal design refers to the three-district ornamented jade bi numbered D54 excavated from the tomb, which is currently on display at the National Museum of China.
According to the data, the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics will produce a total of 327 medals, 109 gold, silver and bronze medals. Athletes from many countries will have the opportunity to feel the cultural genes from the land of southern Guangdong when they create good results and receive medals. In this regard, Li Minyong, president of the South Vietnamese King Museum, said in an interview with the media that the medals of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games use jade bi as a design material to praise the Olympic athletes with the highest standard jade in Chinese culture, which is a perfect combination of China's excellent traditional culture, Chinese aesthetics and olympic spirit, reflecting the good wishes of the world.
In addition, Zhang Qiang, a famous designer in Guangdong, also designed a commemorative stamp called "Ice Sports" for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, realizing the organic integration of sports and culture between square inches.
As one of the eight major cuisines in China, Cantonese cuisine will naturally not be absent from this Winter Olympic Games. According to the menu released by the organizing committee a few days ago, Chaoshan beef balls, shrimp dumplings, etc. will be on the Table of the Winter Olympics as "Guangdong representatives on the tip of the tongue". Athletes, staff and media reporters participating in this Winter Olympic Games will have the opportunity to experience the charm of "food in Guangdong".
Industrial Strength:
Guangdong has become an important map of the ice and snow economy
In recent years, with the advancement of the national ice and snow sports "North Ice South Exhibition West Expansion East Expansion" development strategy, ice and snow sports in the south continue to heat up. With the help of the Beijing Winter Olympics, Guangdong, where there is no snow all year round, the ice and snow economy is also rapidly "burning".
According to Tianyancha data, as of the end of 2021, there are more than 8,500 related enterprises engaged in ice and snow sports on the mainland, of which Shandong, Hebei and Guangdong rank in the top three. Shandong ranked first with more than 1,000 enterprises, and Hebei and Guangdong both had more than 500 enterprises.
Driven by multiple factors, Guangdong's ice and snow industry is developing rapidly. According to media statistics, as of the end of 2020, Guangdong Province has opened 20 indoor ice rinks, with a total area of more than 20,000 square meters. As the largest indoor ski resort in South China, Guangzhou Sunac Snow World has attracted the attention of many tourists in recent years. The relevant person in charge of Guangzhou Sunac Snow World said in an interview that by the beginning of January 2022, the passenger flow has exceeded 1.9 million, becoming one of the fastest ski resorts in the world to break through one million passenger flow.
Ice and snow consumption in Guangdong is also accelerating. According to the "China Ice and Snow Tourism Consumption Big Data Report", in the list of the top ten source cities and top ten cities in the mainland ice and snow tourism in 2020, Guangzhou and Shenzhen are in the forefront. This shows that "ice and snow sports + tourism" has become an important tourism and leisure model in Guangdong. In addition, according to Tmall statistics, during the 2021 Singles Day pre-sale period, the turnover of Ski Sports products purchased by Guangdong people increased by 87% year-on-year.
