Connecting stations It looks like Guangzhou will soon be added to the short list of mainland Chinese cities that offer free Wi-Fi on the Metro. According to an article posted on the China News Service (CNS), Southern Galaxy Valley – which manages roughly 70 percent of all subway Wi- Fi services in mainland China – has partnered with Guangzhou Metro to implement the Internet undertaking. Zhou Fazhan, the chairman of the Shenzhen-based company, is reported as stating that the project will commence after Chinese New Year. Pegged to cost RMB200 million (USD32.3 million), if everything rolls out smoothly, Wi-Fi services will be available on select lines by July 2015, with the entire Metro covered sometime in 2016. Guangzhou will be the third city to join The lottery the list of Wi-Fi-available Metro networks, after Shenzhen loves its cars.

This quickly turned to anger, especially since, in September, when Southern Metropolis Daily, Guangzhou is one of China's most heavily used subway systems. city would not implement a license plate restriction policy.

what those listening can do to help conserve these sites. “Antarctica is another planet, a fairytale scene, paradise. Everything is so quiet – no humans, no activity. You feel it so deep in your heart. Your heart gets shocked in an extraordinary, fabulous way,” Wang says. He relies on this ‘heart shock’ to impress upon his clients the importance of conservation. “Antarctica itself guides your own behavior to not pollute it. Experiencing it makes you want to protect it more through your own efforts.” Wang’s polar explorers start their Antarctica experience from Argentina’s southernmost town, Ushuaia, where they board a cruise ship bound for Antarctica’s South Shetland Islands. To reach the Shetlands, they must cross Drake Passage.

he can make a positive environmental impact once back in Shenzhen. For example, Wang doesn’t drive anymore. “I take the number 11 bus,” he likes to say, referring to his own two legs. He also gives lectures about his experience at two of the most prestig- ious universities in China: Peking and Qinghua. The exchange center arm of Polar Explorer pays for the space and the talks are open to the general public. The intrepid entrepreneur has also spoken at many other universi- ties and science museums, including several venues in Shenzhen, where his exchange center is based. Additionally, the center holds open forums and pho- tography exhibits about the Arctic and Antarctic. He calls for personal account- ability in individual polluting, as well as explaining China’s role in Antarctic affairs since its signing of the Antarctic Treaty in 1983. “Many people ask me, ‘Don’t you get bored of going to Antarctica?’ I ask them, ‘Do you get bored of looking at sunsets?’ Every time I go, I get different feelings, inspirations,” Wang says. Until his next trip, he’ll be lecturing, meeting with old clients to brainstorm new ven- tures and doing a lot of walking. Currently, Polar Explorer has an ex- hibit at the Shenzhen Science Museum’s lobby in both English and Chinese until February 28. If you haven’t yet had the rare opportunity to make your own foray into Antarctica, you can still ad- mire the sublime splendor that Wang and his company are striving to protect for future generations.

www.thatsmags.com / GZ / February 2015 21 Travel The Capital of Heavenly Country Should you be living in Chengdu?

by Tom Lee

ost of China’s large, famous, economically thriving cities lie in the east. Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Tianjin – these are the cultural and industrial centers of the Middle Kingdom, the municipalities most populated and most attractive to foreign eyes. Chengdu is arguably the country’s sole western Moutpost, one that is both a fascinating historical and culinary hub and a hive of modern activity.

The Food Chengdu is the capital of Sichuan Province, popularly known as the ‘heavenly country’ because of its profuse natural re- sources. The regional cuisine is famed for its numbing spice (花椒, huajiao) and a broad variety of dishes, including staples such as dandan mian (担担面, noodles with sesame paste, minced pork, various chilies and a scat- tering of vegetables) and mapo doufu (麻婆 豆腐, tofu with chili bean sauce and minced meat). In 2010, Chengdu was only the second place in the world to be named a UNESCO City of Gastronomy. Unsurprisingly, it’s not hard to track down good eats. Ignore the overrated Kuanzhai Xiangzi (宽窄巷子, ‘wide and nar- row alleys’), which is popular for the (largely reconstructed) Qing Dynasty architecture and ostentatious restaurants, and head instead to Jinli Ancient Street (锦里古街). Rather than just a single lane as its name suggests, Jinli is a sprawling maze of markets and food stalls, boasting all manner of delicious street delica- cies, as well as ubiquitous trinkets and kitschy souvenirs. The richness of Chuan cuisine is readily apparent, and you can stroll along the row of vendors eating a bowl of wontons with chili oil here and a smattering of spicy rab-

pastry. The portions are small and the prices bit meat there, beforecheap, finishing so try as withmany a ofsweet the options as you can. Jinli is particularly vibrant at night, when red lanterns illuminate the tra- ditional facades of the buildings. Ask any Chinese person what to eat in Chengdu and

Bizarrely, amidst the greenery- ensconced structures an escalator has been erected to take you up to the highest pagoda. Perhaps it’s a nod to the numerous elderly folk who seem to have made the area their stalking grounds, but we couldn’t help feeling like we’d suddenly stepped into a mall. All that was missing was a bit of Muzak. If you’re looking for a place of pilgrim- age, there is just one spot you must visit: Qingcheng Shan (青城山). Located nearby Dujiangyan, north of Chengdu, it was here that Zhang Ling, the man who transformed Taoism from a philosophical school of thought into an organized religion, preached his creed. According to legend, it was also on Mount Qingcheng that he slipped his earthly bonds and ascended into heaven. To the skeptic, that just means he died there. Regardless of where you stand on spir- itual matters, Mount Qingcheng is a gorgeous scenic marvel, with placid lakes, lush foliage and majestic peaks. Pagodas, temples and pavilions dot the landscape, some with origins dating back to more than a millennium ago. The mountain is divided into anterior and posterior parts, each boasting its share of natural and man-made attractions. Together with Dujiangyan, it has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Both can be easily reached by a direct train or bus from Vanity Fair Chengdu center, with the journey taking an hour maximum.

By Zoey Zha

Billed as the second most-read book in China behind a certain little red specimen, Wolf Totem is getting the 3D-film treatment. Jiang Rong’s bestseller has been adapted by an eye-catching production crew headlined by Academy Award-winning director Jean-Jacques Annaud. Opening on February 19, it will battle Dragon Blade for the Spring Festival’s box office supremacy.

Zhongguancun, the capital’s electron- ics hub, Beijing Makerspace is similar to XinCheJian, if bigger in size. Centering on a sparse communal area, with a few scat- tered chairs and a foosball table (even hack- ers need some old-school distractions, says Wang), the space is alive with a variety of ongoing projects. On one side of the room, a quadcopter – a miniature helicopter-like drone used for aerial mapping – is prepar- ing for takeoff while, in an adjacent room, a small robot scoots about on wheels. Like its Shanghai’s counterpart, Wang’s lab also started as a tiny space – a 20-square- meter room – in 2011. It now covers 1,000 square meters, boasting over 10,000 sub- scribers to its mailing list and collaborating with global companies including Sony and Samsung, who have granted Beijing makers access to their research labs. “There’s a lot of educational and finan- cial potential in what we’re doing,” says Wang, who has just returned from a meet- ing with Microsoft. “One of our makers might develop the next big thing in the tech field. Hence why the higher ranks – both the government and industry giants – are keen to get involved. They are curious.” XinCheJian’s David Li is of the same opinion: “Maker culture is seen as a means to bring economic competitiveness forward. Everyone wants to have a piece of it.” But might such top-down support – par- ticularly from the government – clash with the grassroots essence of the maker move- ment? Both Wang and Li believe that, for now, this isn’t the case. “You can’t have any movement of our size in China without government approv- al,” says Wang. “[Its] involvement allows us to pay rent, work on our own projects, host fairs and initiatives – all essential if we want to bring DIY culture forward.” “The hardest aspect [of] makerspaces is financial sustainability,” adds Li. “And if institutions or bigger tech companies can help then I’m not opposed to it in principle.
