5 1 月, 2023

On December 28th, a flight themed around the open-world role-playing game Genshin Impact flew from Shanghai to Sanya. The flight was operated by Juneyao Air, and on the flight, there was a joint live-streaming event held in collaboration with the Sanya Tourism Promotion Board (STPB), Trip.com, and Genshin Impact. Using in-flight WiFi, live streamers from Trip.com broadcast their exciting content from the cabin up in the sky, introducing Sanya’s seasonal entertainment and attractions, and delivering gifts and prizes to passengers on the flight. This was part of a drive by STPB to attract Generation Z (Gen Z) tourists in the ever-changing and competitive tourism market. In addition to bringing live streaming to the skies, the themed flight also included strong elements of Genshin Impact and Sanya as part of the plane’s decor, adding a touch of vibrancy to the flight. Genshin Impact is an adventure role-playing game developed and published by miHoYo. The game takes place in an anime-based open world called Teyvat, where characters can roam freely. It saw 23 million downloads on mobile platforms within a week after its debut release in 2020, and has gained a legion of fans, especially among the Gen Z demographic. Genshin Impact is popular with the Gen Z demographic around the world. For Sanya, Genshin Impact is an ideal choice to work with as the city is upgrading its tourism resources to garner more attention from young tourists and international visitors. With tourism recovery expectations ahead, the STPB plans to conduct a series of initiatives to present Sanya as an international destination to audiences worldwide. Boasting all year-round warm weather, spectacular scenery, and diverse experiences, Sanya is the perfect backdrop for work, travel, and play. In recent times, the STPB has focused on cultivating new tourism opportunities and hotspots to attract different types of travelers to Sanya. With surfing, camping, diving, and other trendy sports becoming increasingly popular among young people, the outdoor lifestyle is becoming closely associated with Sanya, as the city continues to cater towards a younger demographic. Tourism destinations represented by Sanya have recently experienced rapid growth. According to data from Trip.com’s FlightAI platform, tourists from various destinations flocked to Sanya from December 20 to December 27, with Sanya Phoenix Airport ranking fifth in China in terms of civil aviation passenger traffic, while the year-on-year recovery rate in passenger traffic is ranked among the top four of all airports in China. As China eases its restrictions for inbound tourists in 2023, the STPB will focus on highlighting new attractions in the tourist destination and preparing an exciting lineup of events to attract new international travelers, as well as enticing travelers who have previously visited to return.

19 7 月, 2022

Dubai, UAE, July 19, 2022 – (SEAPRWire) – With a collection of 1,500 handpicked NFTs now open for mint on their website, FierceCrowd’s aim is to use Web3 technology to create a positive impact in the real world. The technology behind NFTs and Why it matters? Blockchain technology: A blockchain is a digital ledger, consisting of records called blocks that are used to record transactions and track assets. It is decentralized, distributed and most of all, public. Social impact and Web3: Blockchain technology, because of its benefits cuts out the middle-man and enables full financial inclusion – despite a person’s current circumstances. With the rise of NFTs, any individual now has a chance to mint their own work and sell it on an NFT marketplace, or buy and own valuable tokens themselves through the same Web3 platforms. Many have found their lives flipped upside down because of those new technologies. FierceCrowd NFT aims on creating change by bringing some of those opportunities back into the real world…Despite the current market situation. “Just because Bitcoin went from 60K to 20K doesn’t mean the underlying technology has lost value” – FC founder states. According to the FierceCrowd team, blockchain technology, decentralization and Web3 as a whole remain powerful innovative tools. A bear market does not put into question the value of those underlying technologies, the way they are currently being used though, maybe. With a combination of 560 attributes, including over 250 hairstyles, 60 backgrounds, and 18 skin tones, FierceCrowd aims to emphasize the concept of inclusion in the digital/generative art field. With many projects claiming they strive to create change but with no real long-term projects to do so, FierceCrowd’s roadmap lines up real steps the team intends on taking in order to reach that goal. Through NFTs and blockchain technology, social impact projects finally have a space to grow while offering something in return to the contributing people.

Teijin and Fujitsu Agree to Jointly Develop Blockchain-based Commercial Platform to Promote Sustainable Use of Recycled Materials

12 7 月, 2022

TOKYO, Jul 12, 2022 - (JCN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Teijin Limited (hereinafter Teijin) and Fujitsu Limited today launched a joint project to realize a blockchain-based commercial platform for enhancing the environmental value of recycled materials for manufacturers. The collaboration will promote environmentally conscious design(1) by leveraging Teijin's Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Calculation Method for measuring the environmental impact of manufacturing processes across the value chain, as well as Fujitsu's blockchain technology to collect and track primary data on environmental impact (including GHG emissions) to deliver reliable, transparent traceability.Image of platform for enhancing the environmental value of recycled materialsThe new platform will promote the use of recycled materials and environmentally friendly designs by providing manufacturers who design products from recycled materials with accurate information about their environmental footprint, including proof of origin of recycled materials and data on GHG emissions.This joint effort demonstrates the two companies' commitment to contributing to the realization of the common global goal of a carbon-neutral future for humanity.BackgroundMeasuring and reducing the environmental impact of manufacturing processes as well as enhancing the environmental value of recycled materials represents an ongoing challenge for players in the manufacturing industry.To this end, manufacturers are increasingly introducing LCA throughout the life cycle of products, disclosing evaluation results, and taking proactive measures to obtain environmental labels(2) as part of their environmental impact management strategies. The introduction of stricter environmental regulations in Europe in particular requires companies to not only adjust to additional requirements in the manufacturing process, but also to focus on environmentally friendly designs and materials. In particular, fiber reinforced plastics (FRP), which are increasingly used for industrial purposes particularly in the transportation field such as aircraft and electric vehicles (EVs), will require more advanced, environmentally conscious design efforts in the future.To achieve these goals, both the government and the private sector are actively working to regulate waste disposal and develop improved recycling technologies. However, transparency and traceability of recycled materials remain an ongoing challenge, and demand for solutions for reliable information management is expected to grow amidst trends to institutionalize the verification of the usage of recycled resources.To address this issue, Teijin and Fujitsu started collaboration on a blockchain-based commercial platform to promote sustainable use of recycled materials and provide manufacturers with reliable and transparent information on the origin of recycled resources and data on GHG emissions.Outline of the joint projectTeijin has established a method for calculating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from carbon fiber and aramid fiber manufacturing processes and is also promoting initiatives related to FRP recycling. Fujitsu has a strong track record in building systems using blockchain technologies that ensure high transparency and traceability and makes it virtually impossible to falsify information.Features of the new platform- The new platform will improve the reliability and the environmental value of recycled materials by leveraging Fujitsu's blockchain technology to collect and trace primary data on environmental impact (including GHG emissions) across the value-chain- The new platform will promote the use of recycled materials and environmentally friendly designs by providing manufacturers who design products from recycled materials with environmental impact information, including proof of origin of recycled materials and highly reliable GHG emissionsFuture plansAs a first step in their collaboration, Teijin and Fujitsu will start full-scale trials with the aim of realizing business in the FRP field within fiscal 2022. Based on the results of these trials, the two companies will consider expanding the scope of the project for other types of materials.Moving forward, Teijin and Fujitsu will continue to contribute to the materials industry as a starting point for the realization of a "circular economy" and will promote environmentally conscious design in society by promoting the use of reliable recycled materials.The two parties will further promote discussions and field trials with partner companies and organizations that support this initiative to contribute to the realization of carbon neutrality on a corporate and global level.In order to realize a sustainable society, Teijin will provide innovative, people-centered solutions that improve peoples' quality of life. Teijin will further strive to mitigate the impact of its business activities on the environment and society to realize its long-term vision "to be a company that supports the society of the future."
