Watching and Inheriting Cultural Heritage
Just after 6 in the morning, wearing masks, gloves and hard hats, Shao Shuai went straight to a repair site of the ancient city wall in Pingyao. Re-examination of the repaired rammed earth, while sampling the upcoming construction area... This is how Shao Shuai, the ancient building restorer, began his day's work.
Shao Shuai is a native of the ancient city of Pingyao. He returned to his hometown after quitting his lucrative job in 2012 and began to participate in the renovation of ancient buildings.
"It's so broken that you can't see it." Shao Shuai, who just entered the industry, was very sad about the ancient city where he grew up. At that time, in addition to more than 400 well-preserved places, many traditional dwellings in the ancient city of Pingyao were facing "life danger" due to disrepair.

How to protect the traditional dwellings that the people of the ancient city have been guarding for generations, and keep the ancient city intact The dynamism that keeps pace with the times? Pingyao County explores boldly in practice. In 2012, Pingyao introduced a subsidy method for the protection and repair of traditional houses with private property rights in the ancient city, that is, two-thirds of the total cost of the financial subsidy project, and the owner of the property bears one-third. In the following year, it was adjusted to be divided into nine grades according to the value of the dwellings and the degree of damage, and subsidies were given according to different standards per square meter. In 2015, the project won the UNESCO Asia-Pacific Cultural Heritage Protection "Excellent Project Award". In the past ten years, Pingyao has accumulatively subsidized 15 million yuan and completed the renovation of 105 courtyards.
Shao Shuai, who has been dealing with soil and masonry for ten years, is now a leader in the restoration and protection of the ancient city. Although the years of outdoor construction experience have painted dark marks on his face, the years cannot change his protection.” Pingyao people's spiritual home".
Pingyao Ancient City is the spiritual home of Pingyao people. It was built in the period of King Xuan of Zhou from 827 BC to 782 BC, and is one of the most well-preserved ancient cities in my country. Shanxi merchant culture originated and formed here, which had a profound impact on later generations. The ancient city of Pingyao shows people a complete picture of the social style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in China.In 1997, the entire ancient city was selected into the World Cultural Heritage List, and it has become famous at home and abroad since then.
In October 2021, Shanxi experienced the strongest precipitation process in autumn since meteorological records began. The precipitation exceeding the historical extreme caused the collapse of 15 inner walls of the ancient city wall of Pingyao, and the rammed earth of 46 inner walls fell on a large area.
Shao Shuai is now in charge of repairing one of the collapsed spots. In order to keep the original shape of the city wall after the restoration, Shao Shuai used the method of building the wall with Song Dynasty " Building French Style " in the construction, "as much as possible to make the ancient city wall as old as possible".

"The world cultural heritage It is not only to protect cultural relics, but also to protect related to it The skills and the people who restored it." Participating in the restoration of ancient buildings for a long time, Shao Shuai has more thoughts on the protection and inheritance of cultural relics.
makes cultural relics "live" and pass on the skills. In the three years from 2015 to 2018 alone, Jinzhong issued several documents to "establish rules" for the protection of cultural relics and the rescue and protection of ancient buildings, and clearly included the protection of cultural relics in the annual assessment system of governments at all levels. As of the end of July this year, Jinzhong has invested a total of 32.88 million yuan to promote the rescue and protection of severely damaged cultural relics, and the protection and maintenance plans for 73 dangerous buildings have been prepared.
While Shao Shuai was repairing the ancient city wall of Pingyao, Qiao Zhongmin, a "new businessman" in the Qiao family compound in Qi County, more than 30 kilometers away, was also busy.
The Qiao Family Courtyard was built in the 20th year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty (1755), and has been renovated many times since then. The construction spanned nearly two centuries before and after. Joe's statement.
As the first generation of "Internet celebrity" attractions in Shanxi, Qiao's compound has experienced the hustle and bustle, and also experienced the embarrassment of being "picked for stars". In his spare time, Qiao Zhongmin, who was born here, is also thinking about how to make better use of the treasure left by his ancestors and continue the glory of the century-old compound. These treasures are the distant and profound Shanxi merchant culture.

Although it is early autumn, in the garden of Qiao Family Baoyuan Hall, there are still small bridges flowing water and Fang Fei swaying. As a descendant of Baoyuantang, Qiao Zhongmin opened his second milk tea shop here. It not only represents the tea culture of history, but also represents the modern characteristic national tide products and innovative business concepts. Qiao Zhongmin wants to make this place a "window" of Shanxi merchants' culture, so that tourists can see Shanxi merchants' "Tea Pass". The world" grand scene.
"Keeping the foundation of Shanxi merchants' pioneering and enterprising, honest and trustworthy , and innovating our business form and business philosophy today is the best answer to history from our generation." "New Shanxi merchants" Qiao Zhongmin and with the image of "new" Just like the Qiao Family Courtyard, it is keeping upright and innovating.
Zhichuang Valley: Shanxi DreamWorks
in the new era is computer designed, hand-painted, glazed, and baked. After a while, a pair of brand shoes will be personalized and will soon enter the circulation. Because of the unique design, the shoes are sought after by young people online, and their prices are also rising...
This is a scene in a startup company focusing on "customization of sneakers" in the NO.4 base of Shanxi Zhichuang City. At the same time, the company of Xu Ning, an expert in digital twin technology, is full of technology.
"In reality, our vision cannot penetrate physical objects, but our virtual reality technology allows you to have a perspective eye, just like making an X-ray of this industrial part, taking a picture of the internal structure inside You can clearly see..." Xu Ning introduced the digital twin technology he developed and the virtual reality technology to the visitors with great interest.

less than a year, Zhichuang City, with its good "sense of belonging, comfort and future", A large number of entrepreneurs such as Xu Ning have settled down here, and they also use "intelligent innovation" to ignite a new engine for Jinzhong's development.
Since last year, relying on the N0.4 base of Shanxi Zhichuang City, Shanxi University Town , and the New Energy Automobile Industrial Park, the "Zhichuang Valley" came into being, which carries the three major aspects of talent, innovation and resources.The function has become a core of the top-level design of Shanxi Province and Jinzhong City. The report of the fifth party congress in Jinzhong put forward a more concrete plan - to build a "Zhichuang Valley" in Shanxi with a core area of 66 square kilometers, and create a Shanxi version of "Zhongguancun"...
"Zhichuang Valley" is a "City", resources are the house, innovation is the road, and talents are the power source to activate this "city".
In June this year, Jinzhong, together with 18 colleges and universities and nearly 300 household units, held the activity of "Entering a University Town, Sending Jobs to Promote Employment, Building a Smart Creation Valley - City-School Linking 'Cloud Recruitment'" activity. On the day before this " Cloud Recruitment " event, a short video "Zhi Chuang Jinzhong "Job" is waiting for you" was broadcast in many media, and Wu Junqing, Secretary of the Jinzhong Municipal Party Committee, appeared on the scene to promote the recruitment event, expressing the idea of seeking talents If thirsty, the willingness and sincerity of recruiting talents.

Just ten years ago, the new Shanxi University District with a total area of nearly 10,000 mu broke ground at the junction of Taiyuan City and Yuci District of Jinzhong City . According to the plan, the completed new district of colleges and universities in Shanxi will accommodate 11 colleges and universities including Taiyuan University of Technology, Shanxi Media College, Jinzhong College, etc., and become a gathering place for colleges and universities in Shanxi covering science, literature, art and other disciplines.
10 years of trees, 100 years of people. Shanxi University Town, where colleges and universities gather, has now become the area with the richest educational resources for colleges and universities in Shanxi, giving Jinzhong unique technological advantages, talent advantages and educational advantages in Shanxi. Zhang Tianfa, the head of the
"shoe customization" team, is one of the beneficiaries. Sufficient talent reserves have allowed this team, which has settled in Zhichuang City for less than half a year, to grow rapidly. Zhang Tianfa jokingly called himself "three books", born locally, graduated locally, and started a business locally. Not only to retain college talents to come here for employment, Zhang Tianfa also thinks about in-depth cooperation with surrounding colleges and universities to hold design competitions, "It can not only stimulate students' enthusiasm for innovation, but also discover design talents, so that the shoes can not only increase the 'face value' but also increase ' value'".
is located in the NO.4 base of Shanxi Zhichuang City, and the sneakers have changed their "value" under the designer's brush. It has always maintained close cooperative relations with universities in scientific research and personnel training. Taking this city-school docking "Cloud Recruitment" activity as an opportunity, Jinzhong further strengthens targeted talent training and cooperation, guides more graduates to join the "Intelligent Creation Valley" for employment and entrepreneurship, and continuously accumulates innovative power and releases innovative vitality for development. As the dreams of
set sail, the carrying capacity and incubation function of the No.4 base of Zhichuang City began to be activated.

Jia Haitian said: "Rooted in the Now, I no longer have to worry about having no fixed place to live." Jia Haitian hopes that the team can grow together with this "city", from the beginning of the bud to the towering tree.
Eco-gallery grows from green to gold, and methanol economy is on the rise Northern Song Dynasty writer Sima Guang wrote a poem about sunflowers.
Now this picturesque scene reproduces the Baili Fenhe Corridor with Jiexiu section: the breeze is blowing, the sun is warm, 3000 acres of sunflowers bloom along the Fen River , the three-dimensional beauty of people swimming in the middle of the painting. The planting of
oil sunflower not only adds gorgeous colors, but also allows the land to recuperate.
Because it is relatively simple to grow corn, ten years ago, the crops along the Jiexiu section of the Fenhe River were mainly corn, and the land had not been changed for more than ten years. The heavy rainfall in 2021 will lead to flood backflow, and the soil soaked by the rain has poor ventilation, serious salinity return, and many diseases and insect pests.

"Because of the resistance to salt and alkali, planting oil sunflower can first solve the problem of saline-alkali land." In the middle According to Liang Zeyan, an agronomist of Huaxian Agricultural Company, sunflower seeds can also be extracted and squeezed into high-grade edible sunflower oil, and the market prospect is good. .
This is the epitome of ecological restoration in Jinzhong as a coal resource-based city.
In June 2020, villagers in Xiyang County found the North China Leopard F8 known as the "Little Princess of Taihang Mountains" on the side of the road. After giving birth to two cubs in 2018, the "single" F8's territory has become wider and wider, and it first appeared in counties other than birthplace and Shunxian . Not only is the habitat expanding, but the population of the North China leopard is also growing quietly. Scientific monitoring shows that from 2016 to the end of 2020, Heshun County has monitored 11 female leopards to give birth to 40 cubs.

In the past ten years, the urban and rural areas of Jinzhong have been dyed green and continue to be beautiful. Here, the ecological "green content" is used to enhance development. Stories of "gold content" abound. At the same time, Jinzhong seized the opportunity to speed up the adjustment of industrial structure and energy structure, promote the high-end, clean and green transformation of traditional advantageous industries, and make solid progress towards the direction of comprehensive green and low-carbon transformation. The greenhouse effect of
gas is more than 20 times that of carbon dioxide . In Jiexiu a coalbed methane power generation company, after the gas passes through multiple sets of internal combustion engines, it drives the generator sets to generate electricity, and the high-temperature exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine enters a heat exchange " furnace ", through the steam engine Drive the generator set for secondary power generation.
"Coalbed methane (gas) power generation is not only low-carbon, environmentally friendly and energy-saving, but also achieves 'zero emissions' of gas, and truly achieves 'eating dry and squeezing clean'." Zhang Zhifei, the person in charge, said to his company "increasing the green content and reducing the carbon content. "The report card is quite satisfactory.
gas power generation has achieved full-process automation and intelligence (Photo by CNR reporter Lang Qi)
has invested a total of 440 million yuan since it started the coalbed methane power generation project in 2013, and completed the third phase project with a scale of 55.8 megawatts . After all the projects are put into operation, 100 million standard cubic meters of pure gas can be used annually, which is equivalent to 121,000 tons of standard coal. The annual gas emission reduction is equivalent to eliminating the greenhouse effect of 1.6 million tons of carbon dioxide. How does
speed up the pace of development towards new and green? Jinzhong is looking for a sustainable development path.
On August 20 this year, the world's first methanol hybrid sedan was delivered in Jinzhong.
methanol empowers cars and green development. As the earliest methanol vehicle pilot city in China, Jinzhong has always been the core area of Shanxi's methanol economic development. Among them, the development and utilization of new energy vehicles has played a key leading role. Over the past ten years, Shanxi New Energy Vehicle Industrial Park has become the auto industry cluster with the longest chain, largest scale and most types in the auto industry in Shanxi Province; by the end of the "14th Five-Year Plan", the annual output of new energy vehicles here is expected to account for to 95% of the province.

Baijia Reading City:
Starting from Pingyao, the future can be expected
Zhang Guotian
The ancient city of Pingyao has 6 city gates, 4 corner towers and 72 enemy towers. The city wall is 6163 meters long and 12 meters high.
from southStreet to Xiaximen, from Rishengchang to North Street, old streets and alleys and ancient houses meander out from the depths of history. In the ancient city, there are more than 300 cultural relics and nearly 3,800 ancient dwellings scattered among them. It carries the faith and wisdom, yearning and dream of the Chinese people for thousands of years.
When I picked up my camera and took pictures of Pingyao, I was attracted by these "beliefs and wisdom, yearning and dreams". I never thought that in the second half of my life, I would be so closely related to such a city.
The 22-year-old China Pingyao International Photography Exhibition was placed in such a city. It expanded the dimension of the city. In the collision of tradition and modernity, flying and heavy, it added more colors to the ancient city, and more for interesting possibilities.
This is a strenuous leap of the ancient city. This leap is spontaneous, but it is in line with the spirit of "revering history, culture, and ecology". An ancient city is a cultural heritage and a home for the people; it is a spiritual inheritance and a memory of people's life. Revere it and protect it, recognize it and understand it, get close to it and integrate into it, so that the context can have a long history.
opened the Jinzhong picture album, and the ancient buildings came from the depths of time. After repairs, they were shining brightly, and each item of intangible cultural heritage was brilliant in the hands of the craftsmen. How to be an inheritor of excellent historical culture is a question of the times and a responsibility given to Jinzhong by history. From "repairing the old as the old, preserving the truth" to highlighting the inheritance of historical and cultural "gods" and the development of "new", Jinzhong will protect and inherit as "live". Focusing on the "five ancients" of ancient courtyards, ancient villages, ancient towns, ancient castles, and ancient cities and the "six new formats" of experience, leisure, wellness, vacation, sightseeing, and sports, the cultural industry will be shaped by culture and tourism, and culture will be promoted by tourism. Do "fire".
Pingyao is a typical city in Jinzhong, and it is also the epitome of Jinzhong. "Barren land" and "more people weaving and farming less" forced the local residents to turn their attention to a wider space, starting from the west entrance, Pingyao, and other cities in Jinzhong, Yuci, Tai Gu, Qixian , Jiexiu... After continuous development and progress, they finally became Wang Family Courtyard , Qiao Family Courtyard, Qu Family Courtyard, Cao Family Courtyard , Chang Family Manor...they It is the product of the combination of history and culture, and it is also the result of the people of Jinzhong seeking change.
Just as Pingyao held a photography exhibition, Jinzhong, a resource-based city, is also striving to turn the past glory into the potential for future development. Promoting ecological governance, developing new energy industries, creating the future with "intelligence", and relying on the sky for food and resources for food are gradually being abandoned. Changjingmei is the growing width and height of the city, and the satisfaction of more people eating the "rice" of the new industry. The history of
left Jinzhong with memory and hope. Jinzhong is taking culture as the foundation and innovation as the beam, and gathers wisdom and strength towards the future.
Jinzhong, the future can be expected.
