Gu Ailing likes this place in Shanghai the most
Recently, a video of Gu Ailing and her mother traveling to Shanghai went viral.
In the video, Gu Ailing said that her grandfather is a Shanghainese and will come home when he comes to Shanghai. Nanjing Road is her favorite place in Shanghai, and she must visit Nanjing Road every year when she comes to Shanghai. She confesses that she likes to hang out and see all the people and shops. What's even more interesting is that she not only showed her roller skating skills on Nanjing Road, but also showed off her handstand walking.
Gu Ailing, who was still 15 years old at the time, had already punched in the Pujiang River Cruise Ship. She walked on the Bund in the brightly lit night of Shanghai, took photos with the Oriental Pearl Tower, and praised the Shanghai scenery.
During the Winter Olympics, every time the Chinese team wins a gold medal, the tower of the Oriental Pearl Radio and Television Tower will be lit up with golden lights that night, which is particularly dazzling!

Winter Olympic medals, made in Shanghai
Ice and snow patterns, auspicious clouds, star track maps... The "One Heart" medal full of Chinese romance was carefully minted by Shanghai Mint Co., Ltd. The Olympic rings and ice and snow cloud patterns on the "Concentric" medal are all carved by the craftsmen one by one, and in order to ensure the quality of the process, the above links are completed under the microscope.
This craft originated from the "hand-engraving technique in coin production" listed by Shanghai Mint Co., Ltd. as part of the Shanghai Intangible Cultural Heritage List, and now with the help of the "Tongxin" medal, this traditional Chinese craft is carried forward on the stage of the Olympic Games.
Quietly tell you: Soon, the inspiration for the design of the Medal of the Winter Olympics, the concentric circle pattern jade bi of the Tomb of the King of Nanyue in Guangzhou, will bring hundreds of cultural relics from the Tomb of the King of Nanyue to be exhibited at the China Maritime Museum.

Athletes' favorite creative throw pillow quilt
In the Beijing Winter Olympic Village, each athlete was given a square cushion with the emblem of the Beijing Winter Olympics on one side and the ice pier of the Beijing Winter Olympic mascot on the other. Pull open the zipper of the throw pillow and flatten it, and immediately transform it into a practical folding quilt. Many foreign athletes posted pictures and videos to express their love for this throw pillow quilt.
And this "net red" pillow quilt is also from Shanghai's time-honored brand - Hengyuanxiang. The pillow quilt is also a gift carefully prepared by the Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee for athletes from all over the world, because of its small size and great use, athletes can be brought back to China as a souvenir after the game.
The opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics with the same "Welcome Pine"
When the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics were announced, grand fireworks bloomed from the top of the bird's nest, and a welcome pine that symbolized hospitality and welcome was paired with a bird's nest that resembled a beautiful pot, and the whole was like a pot of bonsai in traditional Chinese culture.
In the Bonsai Garden of Shanghai Botanical Garden, there is also such a work of Yingkesong rich in classical cultural imagery. The tree species of "Cang Pine Welcome" is Osaka Pine, also known as Golden Leaf Five-Needle Pine, which is about 200 years old and won a gold medal at the 1997 Asia-Pacific Bonsai Stone Appreciation Exposition. Its tree-shaped bends forward to bow, as if greeting guests, quite like the welcome pine on the Huangshan Mountain. The canopy is as dense as a cover, lush and lush, but rich in layers, vivid and vivid, so the name "Cangsong Welcome", is the "treasure of the town garden" of the Shanghai Botanical Garden, which can be called the treasure of Chinese bonsai art.
The secret of the Winter Olympic torch
The "flying" torch of the Beijing Winter Olympics is shaped like a ribbon fluttering, swirling and rising, and finally appearing as a flying flame, full of beautiful meanings. This metal torch turned out to be 3D printed!
China Aerospace Science and Technology Group Co., Ltd. and Harbin Institute of Technology and Hart Three-dimensional Technology Co., Ltd. jointly tackled the key problems, and finally selected the use of 3D printing technology to develop the torch, and overcome the problem of precision formation of the torch in the development process.
In Shanghai, to feel the magic of 3D printing technology, you can go to the 3D Printing Culture Museum located in Wisdom Bay, Baoshan District! Wandering in the ocean of nearly a thousand 3D printed works, I have to sigh that "everything can be printed". No, they also printed 3D ice pier chocolates!
