On the evening of September 30, the banquet hall of the Great Hall of the People was brightly lit, and the reception celebrating the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China was held here. On the banquet table, the Pinggu big peach with the huge "70" logo, a big bright red, is eye-catching.
They are fresh peaches picked from the trees by Pinggu peach farmers on the day before the National Day reception, weighing more than 500 grams, sweetness of more than 13 degrees, and ninety-five minutes of ripeness.
