Are the small shops in each area prosperous, and are the fireworks strong? In the past, city managers could only understand through coarse-grained statistics or organizing on-site visits. Now, through the “Small Store Index” module of the “Meituan City Digital Signs System”, city managers can clearly perceive At present-in Huangpu, Putuo and other areas, the index of small shops in supermarket convenience, fresh fruit, snacks and catering is more than 60% higher than other districts; while small shops in the leisure and entertainment field are the top three fastest-growing districts They are Chongming, Qingpu and Baoshan, which demonstrate the huge growth potential of urban economic development.

A good life in the city is a huge proposition. It is closely related to everyone living in the city. It is more than a small shop, a breakfast full of vitality and within reach, a shared bicycle that is convenient for green travel, and even home. The parks at the gates and the activities held by urban commercial bodies are all microscopic components of the nerve endings of a good life. If the fresh social data can feed back to the government, it will become a new supplement to the digital governance of the market.

On June 10, Shanghai City Operation Digital Sign 1.0 was officially launched. Just today, Meituan and the Shanghai Institute of Digital Governance released in Shanghai the country’s first digital platform for life services in the field of government affairs-“Meituan City Digital Sign System”, which will be connected to the “Shanghai City Operation Digital Sign System” “Based on Meituan’s consumption, evaluation data and practice accumulation in the field of life services, through observation of urban consumption such as catering and entertainment, as well as life service modules such as the operation of small stores, it empowers city operation and management and helps create a quality life.

The fastest data update can be synchronized with the real scene in real time

The “Meituan City Better Life Digital Sign System” released this time is based on Meituan’s practice in the field of life services under the guidance and help of the Shanghai Urban Transport Center, and draws on the experience of the Urban Transport Center in the field of digital governance of super large cities. , Which took more than a year to explore together.

In terms of coverage, the digital signs of a good life in the city cover more than 200 sub-categories in 6 categories, including food, lodging, travel, shopping, and entertainment; at the level of consumption scenarios, search, browse, order, and evaluation form complete consumption. Closed-loop windows, through the supply-demand relationship model, build a healthy supply-demand ecology; at the geographic level, it can be refined to streets and business circles, and run through the various units of urban management vertically, achieving macroscopic view, manageable at the end, and breaking barriers horizontally through inter-regional comparison And mobile insights to help fine-tune urban governance. At present, the data update on the system can be synchronized with the real scene in real time at the fastest.

Meituan Bicycle, the most familiar to Shanghai citizens, converts the number of kilometers that citizens ride on shared bicycles daily into actual figures for reducing carbon emissions in the “Bicycle Riding Heat Map” module. The reporter saw that in the data released on the day of release, the number of kilometers that Shanghai citizens rode on a bicycle that day, if converted into a private car trip, is equivalent to replacing about 160,000 trips with a private car, and the calories consumed by cycling is equal to about 240,000. The calories of a burger or 1.46 million xiaolongbao.

Not only that, the data in the field of transportation capacity distribution provides an effective reference for city managers to solve the “last mile” of citizens’ travel. Li Jiao, head of big data products at Meituan City, gave an example. When a company launches shared bicycles, it may place 8 cars at exit 1 of a certain subway station and 2 cars at exit 2 according to the traffic volume. Changes in the weather and an important meeting may change the use of shared bicycles. With the help of government public data and open resources, shared bicycles will become more “smart”, which will be based on passenger flow at rail stations, weather changes, etc. The data adjusts the number of vehicles delivered. Citizens’ evaluation of public service places can also become an important reference for city managers to improve their management level. The reporter saw that the “Resident Evaluation” module in the “Meituan Digital Signs System for a Better Life in Cities” is to analyze the natural evaluations of users on the POI pages of urban public services such as parks and stadiums collected by Meituan to encourage citizens to actively participate. Urban governance practices the concept of “People’s Cities and People’s Construction” to highlight the temperature of the city. Taking the park as an example, the evaluation can help the park learn about the inadequacies in fee admission, service management level, park facilities richness, environmental beauty, convenience facilities perfection, transportation convenience, etc., and provide reference for its refined construction and operation . In addition, Meituan takes advantage of the full business chain coverage of the life service industry of “food, lodging, travel, shopping and entertainment”. Through comprehensive and detailed data, it can not only fully present the development of the regional life service industry, but also provide a window for research in sub-fields. Taking catering as an example, in addition to understanding the overall consumption situation of the catering industry, research can also be carried out by subdividing catering categories such as hot pot, coffee, and milk tea. The “Meituan City Better Life Digital Sign System” also refers to the “Excavator Index” in the industrial field, and uses the Milk Tea Index, Coffee Index and other popular specialties in cities. The data shows that Shanghai’s coffee consumption index is 2.4 times that of 35 cities (30 provincial capitals/municipalities + 5 cities specifically designated in the national plan). Empowering city operation and management with fresh enterprise data This year, Shanghai issued opinions on comprehensively advancing the digital transformation of Shanghai’s city, and proposed strengthening system integration and overall improvement. According to Xu Huili, deputy director of the General Office of the Municipal Government and director of the Municipal Urban Transport Center, the digitalization of life and the digitalization of governance are both important parts of the digital transformation of cities, and through the exploration of professional fields, fresh enterprise data can empower city operation and management , Repeating the needs of urban citizens in daily life, has become a new force in the operation of the “one network unified management” of cities. Today, Meituan also demonstrated other explorations in the field of life services. For example, based on Meituan’s consumer review data, we will promote social co-governance of food safety. Meituan has more than 1,000 engineers working on AI, and has applied technological innovations to back kitchen monitoring, warehouse temperature control, food seal recognition, intelligent meal cabinets, unmanned delivery vehicles, and other scenarios. Support the upgrading of products and services in the field of life services through the digitalization of the offline economy. Through industrial cooperation, the further exploration of innovative solutions for food safety technology is also what Meituan has been exploring in recent years. Last year, Meituan launched the first food safety technology innovation platform activity, soliciting food safety technology innovation solutions for the whole society in warehousing, cooking and processing, takeaway delivery, dine-in dining, etc., and mobilizing more people to care about and participate in food safety governance and Industry sustainability work. “Food safety work is not just a business for an enterprise, but also requires the extensive participation of all sectors of society and all stakeholders, co-governance and sharing. Food safety work is not something that can be accomplished overnight. It is more reflected in daily food safety risk monitoring, In terms of evaluation and management,” the relevant person in charge of Meituan introduced, “Meituan has also been exploring to link industry partners to jointly sum up and precipitate good food safety management experience, and form standards and norms that the industry abides by.” “One of the basic elements of Shanghai’s urban operation’One Network Management’ is to use real-time online data to help city managers observe the society, perceive needs, and cognitive laws, so as to better meet the needs of the masses and solve problems efficiently.” Xu Huili said, After Meituan’s exploration in the life service industry is empowered by the urban transportation system, it will effectively help city managers find problems in a more timely and accurate manner, connect needs, study the situation, prevent risks, and accumulate more energy for good governance in big cities.

Yellow apple snail appears in high density and damages summer-autumn rice. Mr. Le Xuan Tu, Director of the Sub-Department of Cultivation and Plant Protection said that the yellow apple snail harms the newly sown rice stage, greatly affecting the growth and development of rice plants, if high density can make 100% loss of trees in the field. In order to minimize the damage caused by yellow apple snail, farmers need to apply a combination of manual measures and chemical measures to increase the effectiveness of killing snails. When the density of snails is high, snails are small, in order to thoroughly limit harmful yellow apple snails, people use drugs with active ingredients, such as Metaldehyde, Niclosamide to eradicate. Dosage according to the manufacturer’s instructions on the packaging. People should note that when using the drug, it is necessary to maintain the water level from 3-5cm to prevent high efficiency; Spray in the early morning or late afternoon because this is the time when snails are most active. Pesticides to prevent snails are often toxic to aquatic animals, so they should only be used when the snail density is high, avoiding use in rice and fish fields. In addition, other objects are causing harm with an increasing trend, such as: rats harming 71.2 hectares, leaf rollers 60 hectares, acacia caterpillars 50.2 hectares, thrips 36 hectares…. The Sub-department recommends that farmers keep a close eye on the fields, closely monitor the situation of harmful effects, proactively implement timely and effective prevention measures.

Nearly half a month now, every day I sell hundreds of kilograms to customers. The lychee takes a long time to dry, but the quality remains the same, the more delicious it is to eat.” Fresh lychee with intact branches sold in many traditional markets Lychee 35,000 VND/kg sold in the market, attracting customers to buy Along many roads such as Dien Bien Phu (District 3, Binh Thanh District), Vo Thi Sau (District 3), Cach Mang Thang Tam (Tan Binh District), Vo Van Kiet (Binh Tan District) … many trolleys carry full of fresh lychees, introducing Thanh Ha litchi (Hai Duong) for sale at only VND 15,000/kg, attracting many buyers because of its low price. However, according to many people who bought it, litchi fruit is thin, acrid, not as sweet as advertised. At a clean fruit shop on Nguyen Thi Minh Khai Street (District 1), lychees are offered for sale with prices ranging from 65,000-75,000 VND/kg. “This is “airplane” fabric, ie shipped by air. Fresh lychees from Bac Giang province are harvested in the same day, then transported by plane to Saigon right away, so the fruit is not only fresh and delicious, but also has a strong taste like being enjoyed in the garden. Although the price is high, most of them are booked by customers in advance,” said the store staff.

Big C offers consumers only 25,900 VND/kg… Ms. Nguyen Thi Bich Van, Communications Director of Central Retail Group in Vietnam said: “Litchi are purchased directly from farmers with the highest quality according to the market at the time of purchase, thereby contributing to the orientation of the market. prices for the season. The harvesting and transportation procedures ensure safety against epidemics according to the instructions of the ministries of health and transport. In the supermarket, lychee fruit has a very soft price for customers to choose to buy In addition to coming directly, customers can buy lychee fruit at the supermarket through the online system According to a representative of the Thu Duc agricultural wholesale market, early ripening lychees in the northern provinces returned to the market from May 22 and have consumed 7,000 tons. “The main season lychee has just arrived at the market for more than a week. The average amount of lychee is 700 tons/day, the price ranges from 23,000-32,000 VND/kg. Particularly, lychee by air costs 40,000-45,000 VND/kg, but not much,” said a representative of Thu Duc farmers market. Information from the Ministry of Industry and Trade said that the lychee area in Hai Duong and Bac Giang has a total area of ​​37,100 hectares with a total expected output of 235,000 tons this year.

The hot May sun seemed to exhaust people, but salt people in Chau Ha village, Thach Chau commune (Loc Ha – Ha Tinh) were still busy in the salt fields. For them, the sun is a privilege that nature has bestowed to make the salt crop more bountiful. The peak sunshine of May makes many people uncomfortable, but for the salt people of Chau Ha it is the favor of nature, because the hot sun means that they will have a salt season… The salt season in Chau Ha usually starts from April to August. In order to make white salt grains, the salt people in Chau Ha often start working from early morning to early evening. They go to the fields early to pour the filtered sea water from the previous day on the sun-dried umbrellas. In the midst of the sweltering sun, the wind blowing fiercely, and the salty taste in the face, Mr. Nguyen Hong Tuan (SN 1958) still worked hard at each stage. Mr. Tuan’s family makes 5 sao of salt. Every day, he and his wife start work from 5 am to 6 pm. According to Mr. Tuan, to make a batch of salt must go through many stages and every stage is hard and laborious. Starting from preparing the field, compacting the soil, taking sea water into the field, drying the sand, soaking the sand, settling and filtering the water and then scooping it up into the drying box. Just a full day in the sun, the white crystals of salt gradually appear in each box under each golden sun. Working with the profession for more than 40 years, Mr. Tuan shared: “The salt industry is very hard. If you work hard, this job also helps the salt farmers to have more money in and out of the fields, although they are not rich, but it is enough to cover their lives. This season, my family makes 5 sao, after the end of the season, the output is about 35 tons of salt. With the price of 1,200 VND/kg, this year’s salt crop my family earns a good income. The salt industry depends on the weather, so during the growing season, from morning to night, Mr. Tuan and other salt farmers in the village can only rest for more than an hour, the rest are always anxious to watch the sun and rain. , standing in the field. Mr. Tuan confided: “Good harvest is also thanks to God, bad is also because of God. There are years when the salt season comes to harvest only a few times, then it rains heavily, in a moment the salt fields become a vast, white sea of ​​water, the salt people can only stand at the door and look out.. .”. For many people, the heat is “harsh”, but for the salt people, every year there is a lot of rain and storm, and the sun is low, people are restless. Because this is a job that requires a lot of sunshine. Contrary to most other occupations, intense sunshine and prolonged sunny days are always the desire of the salt people of Chau Ha in the salt fields. Although at the age of “near the land, far from the sky”, Nguyen Thi Chat (81 years old) still tries to make 1.5 sao of salt to earn extra income. Every day, from 5 a.m., Mr. Cho’s hand had to take a handful of shovels, trailers, drinking water… to go to the fields to make salt. Holding a hydrometer to measure the salinity of water, Mr. Chot shared: “The salt profession is so arduous, when it’s sunny, people rest, I carry tools to the field to do it immediately, then my feet will be dark until dark. just homed. On sunny days, if I work hard, I can collect more than 1 quintal of salt, giving an income of more than 100,000 VND. Mr. Chot said, from 12 am to 14 pm is the time when people use a tool to measure the salinity of sea water to determine the salt concentration, when the salinity in the water reaches 20 degrees, the salt people put water into the filter system. for salt production. If it’s sunny, you can also put salt in this layer or another layer, but if it’s not sunny, it’s not too crowded. Sometimes in the middle of the main crop, the unseasonal rains suddenly come, how much effort is successful… in the wild. When he was tired and sweaty, he went to a temporary shack next to the salt field to rest and drink water to regain strength. More than 70 years of salt production, which means that Uncle Ching has gone through 70 harsh summers, but he has never tried to measure the temperature of the salt field at noon, only knowing that the more sweat he sweats, the hotter the sun. the more salt you can harvest. Salt begins to crystallize at about 2pm every day, at this time, salt people rush to start harvesting. Each square of pure white salt is like “pearls” carefully collected by the salt people. According to many salt people, the price of salt for many years has not escaped the fluctuations, up and down. The chorus of good harvests, losing prices, keeps hanging around with the salt people here. At the beginning of the season, little salt, many small traders come to the fields to ask to buy. In the middle of the season, salt is “crushed” as the price. On sunny days 39 – 40 degrees Celsius, the salt field evaporates, despite the saltiness of the salt and the heat like frying a frying pan in the face every day, the salt people of Chau Ha still persistently beam their bare feet under the salt fields. . Perhaps, there is no profession that oozes hot oil like salt making. The salty white salt is the crystallization of the taste of the sea and the sweat of the salt people in the fields. The people of Chau Ha have for many generations still buckling “carrying the sun”, carrying the hardships of life on their shoulders. And for them, making salt is not only an income but also to preserve the traditional profession… Currently, the whole village of Chau Ha has about 110 households engaged in salt production, with a total area of ​​more than 13 hectares. The salt industry here has been around for more than 50 years, since the salt industry has helped many families here stabilize their lives, raise their children to study and grow up. That said, but the salt makers in Chau Ha now only have “aged” men and women attached to the profession. Mr. Nguyen Minh Chau (SN 1961) confided: “The young people in the village when they finish high school, if they don’t go to university or college, they all go to the South to settle down, in the salt fields now there are only shadows of the old people. old person. I know that making salt is not a high income, but I and many other households in the village are not willing to give up, because I want to keep the traditional profession of my forefathers.” With more than 30 years of working with the salt industry, Ms. Le Thi Ty (born in 1962) said: “The salt industry depends on the “sunshine”, the consumption is precarious, we always expect the authorities at all levels to have policies to support farmers in finding a stable consumption market, so that the salt industry will not be lost or abandoned. According to Ms. Ty, over the years, the salt people here have tasted the bitterness of salt making, but if they don’t make salt, they don’t know what to do, because they have no agricultural land and no side jobs. How many things must be carried on the back of the salt grain, so that the output and price are stable, not being forced by traders, which is the biggest desire of the salt people today. According to many salt farmers, the price of salt goes up and down erratically, many people when the salt season ends, they have to turn to other seasonal jobs such as construction workers, porters, fishers… to make a living. Even so, all of them still did not give up the salt profession because the hard work and saltiness in the fields late at night had soon become familiar to them. With their hard work and love for their profession, the people who are “hot team, looking forward to the sky” in Chau Ha salt fields are day by day refining the essence of the sea to make a living and keep their jobs. Sticking with a grain of salt, the lives of the salt people here are still full of hardship and hardship, however, showing up on each of their faces is always an optimistic smile. Ms. Le Thi Chau (SN 1963) shared: “My family has 3 children, but none of them follow in the footsteps of their parents in doing traditional jobs. My husband often jokes: “Let’s work hard until our eyes are open and our hands are not shaken to keep the job, so that we can’t support the job that has supported our whole family for most of our lives”. As for health, my wife and I will not quit our job, quit complaining.” For the salt people of Chau Ha, the white salt warehouses are the “gift burdens” that the sea and sunshine bestowed on them. And perhaps, for that reason, although the salt industry is hard and precarious, the salt people here still do not want to give up their job, on the contrary, they see salt as a part of life.

Ms. Duyen, a small trader in Ha Dong market, said that normally she sells vegetables of all kinds. About a week ago, she started importing young crocodiles: “ Young crocodiles have been around for about a dozen days now, but the number is still small because it is just the beginning of the season. Every day, I can only get 5-7kg to sell at best and usually sell out in just a moment “. Young crocodiles for sale on personal Facebook. (Screenshots) Similarly, Ms. Hoa (Co Nhue, Bac Tu Liem) also started selling young crocodiles from the beginning of this week. According to Ms. Hoa, young crocodiles at the beginning of the season are often bought by many housewives, even though they have a bitter and acrid taste. Surprisingly, this year’s early season crocodiles are not as high as last year. Ms. Hoa shared: “ Last year, at the beginning of the season, I sold young crocodiles for 60,000-70,000 VND/kg. However, this year, the price of crocodiles dropped much, only 40,000 VND/kg. If you buy 2kg, the price is 75,000 VND “. Crocodile at the beginning of this year is cheaper than last year, only 40,000 VND/kg. (Photo: Facebook) Ms. H. Lan (in Hai Ba Trung, Hanoi) has just bought 2kg of crocodile at the beginning of the season, revealing: My family likes to eat young crocodile because the seeds are very soft. In addition to cooking sour soup, boiled vegetables, young crocodiles are also very delicious with sugar or fish sauce. This year, young crocodiles at the beginning of the season are much cheaper than every year. I think it may be due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic “. Not only sold at the market, young crocodiles are also overflowing the “network market”. Trang, an online seller in Hanoi, said that for about a week now, she has sold nearly 10kg of young crocodiles every day. There were days when customers asked to buy more, but she could not get much to sell. Crocodile pickled with garlic and chili sauce is also quite attractive. (Photo: Facebook) According to Trang, in about a month, crocodiles in the North will enter the main crop. At that time, the crocodile was bigger, firmer and thick. The price of the main crop will also be much cheaper, only about 20,000 VND/kg, possibly even lower. Not only selling fresh crocodiles, Trang also made young crocodiles soaked in chili garlic sauce and sold them for 85,000 VND / 1kg jar. Crocodile is packed in clean jars, stored in the refrigerator, can be eaten for 1 month. Many small businesses also receive packaging, vacuum if customers request. (Photo: Facebook) Currently, young crocodiles at the beginning of the season are very popular, many sellers say that housewives are constantly asking to buy, but due to the lack of goods, they often have to wait.

Ms. Trinh Thi Mai from Yen Xa, Hanoi, two weeks ago started selling Dak Lak pink lychee. She said, this is the first fabric of the season that she imported from the Central Highlands to sell to gourmets. “Dak Lak persimmon usually ripens early and yields earlier than other lychees in the country. Usually, this type of fabric will start to ripen from April, until May is the end of the season. Years ago, many people ordered this pink fabric. Every day, I sell weights even though the price is up to 100,000 VND/kg when I go to Hanoi. But this year, the purchasing power dropped sharply even though the price of lychee fell to only 50,000 VND/kg. While at this price last year, customers can only buy loose fruit, without branches, without leaves, “Ms. Mai said. The first fabric of this year’s season is half as cheap as last year This small trader shared, because it is just the beginning of the season, the lychee is not 100% sweet but only about 70% sweet, still a little sour. However, these lychees are still very fresh and delicious. This fabric is therefore still ordered by gourmets to enjoy and housewives to buy offerings on weekdays and full moon days. “The early season lychee is very fresh and sweet, with thick pulp, thin skin, and large, uniform fruits. Because it is beautiful and has a much cheaper price than usual, many customers still order 1-2kg to burn incense. But in general, purchasing power this year is slower than last year because of the Covid-19 epidemic, consumers spend more sparingly. Every day I can only sell about 10-20 kg of lychee,” said Mai. Also a small trader is selling litchi at the beginning of the season, but Ms. Tran Thi Huyen sells hybrid fabrics. Although at the beginning of the season, Huyen sells for only 25,000 VND / kg, 100,000 VND / 4 kg. Huyen said that these are hybrid lychee branches, sweet and sour taste. They are picked at the lychee garden in her hometown, Hung Yen, so they are very fresh. Because it is the fabric of the house, she sells it at a cheaper price than at the market. “Every year, fabric is usually exported to China. But this year, the export market is very quiet, the gardeners are absent from traders who come to deposit to buy. Therefore, the lychee is ripe until it is cut.” Because it is the first type of Northern litchi at the beginning of the season, it has the same cheap price as other popular fruits, so when she sold it online, it attracted the attention of many housewives. Customers often order from 2kg or more to burn incense or taste. “Last year, my family sold lychee at wholesale markets for about 30,000 VND/kg. Selling online, I offer 40,000 VND/kg. Meanwhile, many online shops also sell 50,000-60,000 VND/kg. However, this year the pandemic ended, so I sold it at that price and received a lot of support from many sisters,” Huyen said. According to PV’s observations, on the online market at this time, many small traders sell hybrid fabrics, pink lychee, and egg yolk litchi grown in Quang Ninh and Hung Yen. Because the small traders said, this time there is no lychee. This fabric is about a month away from the main crop. This small trader commented: “Although hybrid lychees and lychees are not as delicious as Bac Giang lychees, their fruits are quite large, round, succulent, and do not have head decay. In particular, the cloth is clean without preservatives, safer than many other fruits.” Before the complicated development of the new Covid-19 epidemic, many lychee sellers also expressed concern that the purchasing power of lychee was low and could not be exported. Despite the large number of customers ordering, the number of customers decreased significantly compared to last year, and in the main season, the price of cloth will surely decrease even more. “Therefore, our family is considering a plan to promote retailing at markets, especially wholesale markets, toad markets and online markets. In addition, try to connect with supermarkets to see if they can push fabrics to sell. Besides, there will also be a plan to dry and store cold to sell gradually”, Ms. Huyen shared.
