　　She highlighted the company's core technology, liquid synthetic ice. The land curling track uses liquid synthetic ice, which is the only simulated ice product in the world that is consistent with the paving process of the real ice field, with the same specifications and sizes as the real ice track, and the law of sliding and arcing, which can simulate ice rubbing.

　　It can achieve 98% smoothness of real ice, while also having the characteristics of zero hydropower energy consumption. As with real ice, using a 19.96 kg granite curler of the same weight, the effect is extraordinary.

　　In August 2018, the Construction of Zhangjiakou Ice and Snow Sports Equipment Industrial Park was launched, and there are currently 10 production enterprises settled, including Winter Kettle Company; 12 service projects have been put into operation. In the future, the industrial park will build an ice and snow equipment manufacturing base and an ice and snow sports experience base.

　　The ice and snow sports experience base mainly builds alpine skiing learning trails, beginner slides, intermediate slides, snow parks, etc., and will become an all-season mountain parent-child park and a destination for sports research, nature studies, and science and technology research after completion.

　　She told reporters that land curling is a throwing competition on smooth ground in teams, and is a "popular version" of curling in the Winter Olympics.

　　The rules of the game are the same as in curling, the rules of the game are two teams per game, each team has eight players, each game plays five rounds, a total of sixteen balls are thrown in a single game, eight red and yellow, each player can throw once per game, and eight people in one game throw a total of sixteen balls.

For students, land curling is easier to learn than skill. During the training class, the students were very enthusiastic and curious about this new ice and snow sport.

　　WinterPot has laid 3 land curling tracks at 7 Middle School, including 2 student tracks and 1 teachers' track.

Chu Chu preached.

　　"A land curling track 2×13 meters, using 16 curling players, 8 red, 8 yellow, and 2 brushes, a scoreboard. The Seventh Middle School Land Curling Track is supplied by our company. At the end of last year, the school purchased this product, due to the cold weather, it was not immediately carried out among students, and this year it was trained in students after warm weather. This kind of training activities serves as an initiator for students. Chu Chu thought.

　　On April 23, the 3rd Ice and Snow Games land curling competition in Qiaodong District was held at The Seventh Middle School. On the field, 11 tracks were held at the same time, and the boys' and girls' teams and teachers' teams of primary and secondary schools competed.

　　Athletes work together in teams, aiming, pushing pots, and sliding. First base, second base, third base, fourth base show the technology in an orderly manner, and the players are meticulously and wholeheartedly engaged. Every time a contestant throws a wonderful pot, he will win cheers and applause from his peers.

　　Seeing the love of teachers and students for land curling, Chu Chu was very excited in his heart, and he had more confidence in promoting land curling products and popularizing this sport in the future.
