From 2 to 4 February

Beijing Winter Olympic Torch Relay

It will be held in Beijing, Yanqing and Zhangjiakou

October 18, 2021

Tinder has been lit in ancient Olympia, Greece since

The torch "flying" strength out of the circle

It was once top secret, too many stories!

IOC President Bach said

"The torch is the light at the end of the dark tunnel"

The story behind it

There are so many "most"

......

It was once top secret, too many stories!

The longest lookout

There is such a schedule

April 24, 2020

The Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee issued a torch public application notice

On April 28, Alibaba set up a start-up team

On June 27, the sample was completed

Until January 22, 2021

Only then will the final structure be finalized!

More than 1,000 hand-drawn sketches

3D Modeling Scheme Version 120

More than 30 versions of hand board proofing

"Flying" can surprise the world

It's a repetition and iteration over and over again!

It was once top secret, too many stories!

The youngest designer

This deeply hidden and famous design team

The core members are only 7 people

But it is the elite of Alibaba's design team

In 2020, they assembled in Beijing

For confidentiality

Family members don't know, friends don't know

Ahead, round after round of tests

It was once top secret, too many stories!

Wu Guanghao after 90

He is the youngest industrial designer in the group

When I first joined the workforce

He knew

The story of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Torch

Thoughts

"If only I could participate in designing a torch."

What a glorious (cow) glory (X) thing."

It was once top secret, too many stories!

The most difficult "curse" to break

Plastered with "Attention! secrecy! secrecy! secrecy! ”

Information can only be transmitted on CD-ROM

in the office

They brainstorm day after day

It was once top secret, too many stories!

August 2020

The project team was successfully shortlisted for the 10-in-3 selection

Everything seemed so smooth

However, the Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games sent a demand to "overturn and start over."

Cut out the complicated and simplify

With the intention of "heart", "connection", "integration" and "integration"

The project team quickly submitted a new proposal

But the bigger problem

And so it goes

New version of the design, the rotation is too regular

This has also become the "curse" of the team.

It was once top secret, too many stories!

The most spiritual fallen leaves

In one communication

Lin Cunzhen, Artistic Director of the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee

Place a leaf on your desk

Handed it to the designer

They were surprised to find out

A simple plain natural deciduous leaf

It contains the beauty of natural creation

Spiral shape beyond simple machinery

It was once top secret, too many stories!

That's it

They are like stripping cocoons

Constantly adjusting

Take "Taoist Nature" as a guide

Feel free to sketch like calligraphy

Countless times depict the beauty of fallen leaves

Try to capture the power of life

The most malleable banana

Design a torch

It's not just the form that there are requirements

It feels comfortable and can be mass-produced

Let the fire burn smoothly

All to consider

It was once top secret, too many stories!

Hollow, winding

The first open torch in the history of the Winter Olympics

The idea has become very bold

Leisure time

A designer casually on a banana

The shape of the torch carved out is also flexible and interesting

It was once top secret, too many stories!

They joked:

"This banana should be treasured"

And this is the most malleable banana

It also became an unforgettable memory in hundreds of programs

The prototype of the torch is gradually emerging

A young bud nirvanas from a fallen leaf

It was once top secret, too many stories!

Double-layered structure inside and outside, such as ribbon fluttering

Inspired by tenons, the assembly is exquisite

The fire dragon spiraled from the mezzanine into the air

unprecedented

This is "flying"!

It was once top secret, too many stories!

The design is complete

It's the production process

What black technology is hidden in this torch?

Donghua University Sun Yize team

Uncover the "big" learning behind the "small" torch

The torch was actually woven

The Winter Olympic torch is "dressed"

And it's carbon fiber clothing

In the production workshop of the cooperative development team Huai'an

A circular "big guy" with a diameter of 8 meters is running at high speed

Hundreds of black tows weave and weave

At first glance it looks like "knitting a sweater"

It only takes a few minutes

It can "weave" a torch coat accurate to "grams"

It was once top secret, too many stories!

The torch "flying" production scene of the partner Huai'an base

Break through the mathematical modeling challenge

Sun Yize led the team north several times

With the team of torch shape designers of the Central Academy of Fine Arts

Relevant staff of the Organizing Committee of the Winter Olympic Games, etc

Repeated discussion, revision, polishing

Kung Fu pays off

They eventually fit an intelligent algorithm with multidimensional surfaces

Completed mathematical modeling

It was once top secret, too many stories!

It uses the most powerful one in the world

Three-dimensional spherical three-dimensional weaving machine

Professor Sun Yize said

The outer streamer of the torch is variable in diameter and curvature

The upper and lower sides are not generally thick, and the thickness of the surface is not consistent

Traditional manufacturing processes cannot be achieved

It is exclusively developed by Donghua University

The world's first large-size special-shaped structural part

Three-dimensional high-precision spherical three-dimensional knitting machine became "weaving"

The "Secret Weapon" of the Torch Coat

In fact, this series of weaving machines can weave large-size structural bearing parts such as large aircraft and high-speed railways, and can also weave precision special-shaped structural parts such as propellers, unmanned aerial vehicles, and flare outer streamers.

Team members are on site to guide the three-dimensional weaving

In 2022

What do we use to represent China?

Let's take the torch

Pass on the most beautiful blessings for the Beijing Winter Olympics

Pass on the hope of endless life!
