"Jiangnan remembers, the most remembered is Hangzhou."

A thousand years ago, this poem by Bai Juyi, the "old mayor" of Hangzhou, is particularly appropriate and appropriate today, especially at the end of the Asian Games, which touches the scene.

The "Jiangnan Memory", where tradition and modernity collide, infiltrate people's hearts, have an unusual meaning, and are also full of vitality. So that even if countless people leave Hangzhou and return to their hometowns, they still "remember Hangzhou the most". Because the Asian Games, the story of "paradise on earth", has added a few more charms and more style, and the ancient famous sentences have been given a new era connotation and meaning.

"I hope that one day my hometown can be built as beautiful as Hangzhou", "Hangzhou has flooded my circle of friends", "Chinese very friendly, thank you for everything you have done", "I felt the development of China's economy in Hangzhou", "The most memorable Asian Games", "The best Asian Games in history"... The true, sincere and sincere evaluations have outlined the basic portrait of the Hangzhou Asian Games for us, and also let us feel their sincere friendship for Hangzhou and China.

On the morning of October 8, a press conference on the theme of the Olympic Council of Asia and the Hangzhou Asian Organizing Committee was held. Vinod Kumar Tiwari, Acting Director General of the Olympic Council of Asia, praised Hangzhou for hosting the best Asian Games in history. This is the highest praise for the Hangzhou Asian Games. Now, with the successful conclusion of the closing ceremony of the Hangzhou Asian Games, we can proudly say that this is a sports event with "Chinese characteristics, Asian style and splendid", leaving an unforgettable and moving time for Asia and even the world, and also handed over a high-quality excellent answer.

But the value and pursuit of the Asian Games does not stop there, but "the heart is far away". With the "wind" of the Asian Games and the "window" of Zhejiang, the wealth left behind is far thicker and deeper than we imagined.

"Fish ride on water, birds ride on wind, grass and trees ride on time, and everything depends on it."

For Hangzhou and Zhejiang, the Asian Games are equivalent to water to fish, wind to birds, and time to grass and trees.

Countless details and facts have also proved that after the test of such a major competition as the Hangzhou Asian Games, Hangzhou's urban energy level has once again jumped, Zhejiang's new style of the era has been further rejuvenated, and its ability and confidence in line with international standards have been further highlighted.

First of all, Hangzhou, since the successful bid for the Asian Games in 2015, but in 8 years, but earth-shaking changes, road construction and public transportation to make up for the shortcomings, catch up, taking the subway as an example, in just three years, the subway line mileage has developed from 135 kilometers to 516 kilometers, and the ranking has also jumped from 15th to 6th in the country.

At the same time, the urban skeleton has been greatly expanded, new cities have sprung up, tens of thousands of talents have chosen to take root in Hangzhou, the scientific and technological innovation industry has flourished, the level of openness has been continuously improved, the city has become more and more ecological and livable, the population has exceeded 12 million, and the GDP is also sprinting towards the "2 trillion club"... The goal of "running a good meeting and upgrading a city" is becoming a reality.

Just a few days ago, Hangzhou also proposed to speed up the construction of an international "competition" and "meeting" city, Hangzhou has always been "words must be done, deeds must be fruitful". In December this year, the 2023-2026 BWF World Tour Finals will be held, and the first International Canoe Super Cup will be held in October next year, preparing to bid for the FIH Hockey World Super League. This succession of large-scale international events is essentially empowering the city and stimulating the city's endogenous power.

From the perspective of Zhejiang, this Asian Games, one host city and five co-host cities, each with its own style and infinite charm. Through this Asian Games, the world has further seen and understood Zhejiang, and the modern picture of "poetry and painting in Jiangnan, vitality in Zhejiang" has left a profound cultural imprint in the hearts of more people.

Because the Asian Games, Hangzhou and even Zhejiang have broadened their horizons, improved their patterns, and enhanced their ability and confidence to connect with the world, and "Hangzhou of the world" and "Zhejiang of the world" have emerged. Such a rare experience is an extremely scarce nutrient, which is of great benefit to always being at the forefront of the tide and striving to write a new chapter in the modernization of Zhejiang.

This Hangzhou Asian Games, people still remember, in addition to the hospitality of service, the hard work and enterprising of athletes, and the "heart-to-heart integration" inside and outside the arena, there is also the appearance of "black technology". It's overwhelming and dazzling.

The digital torchbearer at the opening ceremony of the Hangzhou Asian Games, the "Tide Maker", and the 105 million digital torchbearers who lit the cauldron in a "digital and real fusion" way, are just a glimpse of the "black technology" of the Asian Games.

Conspicuous bags "robot dogs" carrying javelins and discus, "seats that can charge", gyms that "can prescribe", traffic lights that "can talk", "AR smart buses" shuttling through the real and virtual worlds, "Fuxing" Asian Games intelligent EMUs, table tennis robots, intelligent inspection and mosquito killing robots, chocolates that can be 3D printed, mobile payment has also achieved interconnection, as well as intelligent metasurface, visible light interaction, naked-eye 3D, meta-universe, electronic fireworks, solar storage power generation, anti-rain torch... Smart, and green, they all open up new worlds for us.

Of course, what is more technological is the application of digital technology and the practice of "digital and real integration". The Hangzhou Asian Games can be regarded as a "digital kingdom". The integrated digital competition platform, the integrated digital participation platform, the one-stop digital viewing platform, and the 5.5G network have become a reality in the Hangzhou Asian Games, and it can even be said that an "Asian Games GPT" has been presented to the world.

The Hangzhou Asian Games has outlined for us a "tomorrow's world" of science and technology, green, intelligent, thrifty and civilized. In this Asian Games, you can "peek at the leopard". The phrase "now is the future" is also the best footnote for the Hangzhou Asian Games.

These "wisdom fruits" and "scientific and technological wealth" were unveiled and set sail at the Hangzhou Asian Games, and their destination is to "fly into the homes of ordinary people", so that the development results of hosting the Asian Games can benefit more ordinary people.

In fact, this is already a foreseeable fact, and the press conference of the Asian Games clearly pointed out that the technologies and application scenarios such as robots, digital technology, and metaverse used in the Asian Games will be extended to various fields in the city. The one-stop digital viewing platform "Smart Asian Games One-stop Pass" will also be transformed into a one-stop city as a service platform for Hangzhou's digital city.

This tells us all: for the Asian Games, we should not be short-sighted, we must look at the long term, we must not fall into one-sidedness, we must look at comprehensive benefits. At the same time, we also hope that these "black technologies" can take root in more fields and more countries, blossom and bear fruit, change the lives of more people, and add more happiness and beauty to the world.

"Green mountains and clouds and rain, bright moon He used to be two towns."

At the opening ceremony of the Asian Games, the audience recited Wang Changling's phrase "knowing each other far and near, and thousands of miles are still neighbors", reciting our philosophy of "being good with our neighbors" and the voice of "visiting more doors and moving more" among neighbors.

Now that it is the time of the Asian Games parting, these two poems by Wang Changling may be more in line with the current situation, which is a metaphor for the "same qi and branches" of Asian countries, and conveys the good wishes of "Asia is like a family, walking hand in hand".

The practical significance of this Asian Games is to let the world see our rise and further perceive our sincerity and friendship. "The Chinese lion has woken up, but this is a peaceful, amiable, civilized lion." This strong signal is once again released to the world.

The Hangzhou Asian Games is a wonderful date about unity and friendship, and heart-to-heart bonding. Hangzhou citizens took the initiative to transfer 11 Asian Games tickets to help Thailand's national "taekwondo goddess" family dream of the Asian Games, 48-year-old "Qiu Ma" Chuso Vikina, although she did not win a medal, but because of her love of sports, uncompromising life, but also won the respect and applause of the Chinese people, Korean gymnast Yoon Jinxing made a mistake in the competition, the audience applauded and comforted, after the game he bowed to the audience to thank him, and smiled and signed an autograph for the audience, which was the warmest interaction.

The Hangzhou Asian Games is a carnival of multicultural exchanges, collisions and mutual learning. Because of the Hangzhou Asian Games, martial arts in East Asia, kabadi in South Asia, and rattan balls in Southeast Asia have also had international stages for display; The Asian Games Village is full of cultural houses of "intangible cultural heritage", which has become a "gathering place" for journalists and athletes from all over the world, and paper-cutting, fan-making skills, tea culture, and guqin art have become their "favorites"; "No song is played in vain" competition BGM, with a hot arena, breaking through cultural barriers and arousing resonance.

All efforts and dedication, all aesthetics and brilliance, just to make us better and make Asia better. Through the Hangzhou Asian Games, the great stage of the times, adding luster to the great unity of Asia and contributing to the construction of a community with a shared future for Asia and mankind is the ultimate goal of the Hangzhou Asian Games and the historical mission of the Hangzhou Asian Games.

As sung in the song "With Love": "Breathe together, feel and dream, share with love." "The United States and the United States and the common world are becoming our common ideals, and "the trend of ambition is far-reaching, and the mountains and the sea cannot be limited", which is our most firm belief on the road to pursuing ideals.
