BEIJING, Nov. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — A news report from China.org.cn on Neolithic jade dragons in northeast China :

Neolithic Jade Dragons

https://youtu.be/RnOKYZwvjqw

The Hongshan culture is the most famous Neolithic archaeological culture in northeast China, dating back around 6,500-5,000 years ago.

Many Western scholars believe China’s civilization is only about 3,000 years old instead of 5,000 years old. The discovery and establishment of the Hongshan culture pushed the history of Chinese civilization forward by more than 1,000 years.

In the late Neolithic period, a number of jade ritual vessels notable for their special purposes, such as serving as symbols of royalty and theocracy, emerged throughout the land. The Niuheliang site of the Hongshan culture is known as the "Center of Ancient Jade" with an astonishing number of jade artifacts. Inside the large-scale cairn cemetery of the site, there are a number of large tombs, each surrounded by many small tombs. Numerous exquisite jade wares are buried in the large tombs, with the upper sections serving as altars made of soil and stones. Near the cemetery, there are also goddess temples dedicated to sacrifice, which are ceremonial places with strong religious undertones and strict hierarchical privileges. The exquisite jade ritual vessels were formed during this historical period, and their owners were doubtlessly members of the nobility with high social standing. 

The Hongshan people are particularly known for its jade dragons.

There are different opinions on the origin of dragons, such as lizards and crocodiles. It is said that the dragon head origins from horse head, cow head or pig head. Jade dragons of the Hongshan Culture are ones of the earlier images of dragon having discovered in China.

The summit showcased diverse perspectives of key thought leaders, innovators, and young changemakers on AI in education

DOHA, Qatar, Nov. 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The world is at a tipping point for human evolution because machines are about to profoundly change the way we live, the way we work, and even experience what it means to be human, said Nina Schick, one of the first Generative AI experts and Founder of Tamang Ventures Limited, at WISE 11, the 11th edition of Qatar Foundation’s WISE Summit, that concluded today.

Referring to the exponential rate at which the capabilities of AI systems are advancing, Shick emphasized, "In this new age of intelligence – a revolution – the default is going to be a symbiotic relationship with machine and human working together."

In the masterclass ‘Critical Thinking in the Digital Age: AI, Information Literacy, and the Battle Against Disinformation,’ Dr. Marc Owen Jones, Associate Professor, Middle Eastern Studies Department at Hamad Bin Khalifa University, delved into the challenges faced by education systems in identifying and combating misinformation and advised on ways to tackle AI-generated propaganda.

BEIJING, Nov. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — This is a report from China.org.cn about Tesla China:

In 30 seconds, what could you do? Maybe brush your teeth? Maybe enjoy a slice of cake? But what if I tell you something amazing happens in the same amount of time?

A Tesla Model Y rolls off the assembly line approximately every 30 seconds! Let’s take a closer look.

It’s quite remarkable, isn’t it? And guess where this is unfolding? Not in California, not in Berlin, but in Shanghai, China.

Construction of the Tesla Shanghai Gigafactory began in January 2019. Today, the factory can produce 950,000 cars each year. That’s about one car approximately every 30 seconds!

So, how does the Shanghai Gigafactory achieve this? Let’s dive in and find out!

"The advanced technology of Tesla is a big part of this achievement," said Liu Dingsen, L&D Manager, Tesla (China) Learning & Development Center to China.org.cn at the China International Supply Chain Expo in Beijing on November 29. "But it wouldn’t be possible without China’s well-established supply system."

"Our Shanghai Gigafactory works with over 400 first-tier local suppliers. Through collaboration, more than 60 Chinese suppliers have entered Tesla’s global supply system. Currently, Gigafactory Shanghai has achieved a localization rate of over 95% for components, and over 99.9% employees of Tesla China are Chinese," said Liu. "We can say that Tesla electric vehicles produced in Shanghai are truly Made-in-China cars."

In October, China exported 112,000 new energy passenger vehicles. Of these, over 43,000 cars were from Tesla China, making up nearly 40% of the total.

To understand this success story, you don’t need to visit the Shanghai factory personally. As if getting access were that easy, right? A great alternative is to visit the China International Supply Chain Expo in Beijing.

We are now at the China International Supply Chain Expo in Shunyi, the world’s first of its kind.

Here, visitors can learn about the upstream, midstream and downstream sectors of the various supply chains driving these miracles.

Among the 515 exhibitors, 132 are foreign-funded enterprises and institutions from 55 countries and regions, accounting for 26%. Many are Fortune Global 500 companies. Many are Fortune Global 500 companies.

We’re currently in the Smart Vehicle section. As we know, over half of the world’s new energy vehicles on roads are in China. So, this expo also showcases cutting-edge technologies in this industry. Let’s go and see.

Visitors can discover not only well-known automakers like GEELY and ZEEKR, but also key industry players like CATL. This leading lithium-ion battery manufacturer hails from Ningde, a city in southeastern China. Although their name might not roll off the tongue, they’re pushing the electric vehicle industry to new electrifying heights.

"The booth of CATL you are seeing now is part of the ESAE, also known as the Energy Storage Advanced Exhibition," said Fang Yue, Director and Executive Vice President of Blue Strategy at the expo.

"It showcases the products and services of 24 companies in the field of energy storage systems and power batteries that are participating in the exhibition as a consortium," said Fang.

Fang said all companies in the exhibition area have direct or indirect partnerships with each other, covering the entire energy storage industrial chain and formed a complete, stable and secure energy storage ecosystem.

"For example, you are now seeing the booth of CATL’s partner, SUNNIC. Their supercharging system can be used to charge the Shenxing superfast charging battery," said Fang. "In other words, the exhibition area is not just a showcase for certain products, but also shows a supply chain, an industrial chain and a value chain. In this way, we hope to contribute to the high-quality development of the new energy industry."

"As I said, it showcases the Bosch advanced automated driving solutions in China," said Liu Xiaofei, Director of Corporate Communication of Bosch China. "It contains, the middle screen basically showcases the driving situation in an elevated road as well as the congested area in the downtown city center situation."

Liu said Bosch developed the solutions together with its Chinese partners, the so called WeRide. At the 1st CISCE, Bosch invited four of its local suppliers like WeRide, SupplyOn, Black Sesame as well as HESAI Technology, and they are all showcasing their technology and solutions here at the booth.

"Well, at Bosch we stick to our "Local for Local" strategy and we conduct over 90% of our business in China for the local market," Liu sad. "Here in China, by actively collaborating with our local partners, we can serve our customers much better so as to make our supply chain much more resilient."

I’ve never considered myself to be a particularly skilled driver. However, exploring this section has made me optimistic that future mobility will be significantly smarter. It seems that in the future, anyone could be a good driver, as long as they’re good at talking!

But now, I have some new questions. If the future of mobility is dominated by the electric vehicles, do we have sufficient electricity?

And is there an environmentally friendly way to generate it? Watch my next video, and you’ll find the answer!

The USD 447.8 million loan, the largest ever renewable energy USD loan by BNDES, will help Atlas Renewable Energy build the Vista Alegre Solar Plant.

SAO PAULO, Nov. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Atlas Renewable Energy, international developer and one of the largest and fastest-growing independent power producers (IPP) in Latin America, secured a USD447.8 million (equivalent to R$2,18 billion) loan from the Brazilian development bank (BNDES), the bank’s largest renewable energy US Dollar loan to date, to build the Vista Alegre Solar Plant. With an installed capacity of 902 MWp, equivalent to 768 MWac, the plant will produce an average of 200 MW or 2TWh annually, preventing 2.4 million tons of CO2 during its 20-year operation – equivalent to producing enough power to supply over 3 million people. https://www.atlasrenewableenergy.com/en/atlas-renewable-energy-secures-bndes-first-us-dollar-loan-for-a-renewable-energy-project-in-brazil-2/

Atlas Renewable Energy Solar Plant

Vista Alegre, the largest solar project to be built in a single phase in Brazil, will supply electricity to Albras for 21 years through a power purchase agreement (PPA). The financing marks the second collaboration between the BNDES and Atlas, following the successful financing of the Boa Sorte Solar Power Plant (438 MWp), another joint venture with Albras, which will also supply clean energy for aluminum production. Vista Alegre allows Atlas to continue positioning itself as a leader in US dollar PPAs for large energy consumers in Brazil. Construction began in 2023 and the project is set to start supplying clean energy to Albras by 2025.

"We are incredibly proud of this project that becomes an instant symbol in Brazil and Latin America of the significant progress that can be made in advancing the energy transition with the help of local financing partners. We would like to thank BNDES for their support and trust in offering Atlas Renewable Energy the largest-ever US Dollar loan they have ever granted for a renewable energy project. We are equally proud that Vista Alegre will incorporate the best ESG practices of the industry, incorporating powerful social programs that advocate for, support and empower the local community," said Carlos Barrera, CEO of Atlas Renewable Energy.

The solar project, which will generate more than 2,500 jobs during its construction phase, will continue to promote best-in-class ESG practices through strong project execution to provide long-term benefits to the surrounding communities during the construction and operation phases. Atlas will implement its flagship social program, ‘We are all part of the same energy,’ to promote diversity and inclusion in the construction of its renewable energy projects by upskilling local women to increase their participation to at least 15%. Atlas will also implement its award-winning Ed-Mundo program, which aims to train young students in programming, IT, robotics and entrepreneurship in underprivileged communities. The program enables students to become protagonists of social transformation by generating work opportunities and other sources of income for their communities.
