Seeking competition is to run a city, and running a city is to benefit the people.
On the one hand, it is a high-level competitive venue for the Universiade, and on the other hand, it is a leisurely and comfortable leisure sports venue — — In Dongan Lake Sports Park, the two are perfectly integrated. "Chengdu is building ‘ Fitness center ’ Through various forms of flexible sports space, it is easy to realize people’s fitness, which is also a great improvement to the city’s appearance. " Zhu Kui, deputy director of competition service of track and field center in Shuangliu Division of Chengdu Universiade, said.

The Universiade satellite is a microcosm of the construction of the "Wisdom Universiade". The reporter learned from the Executive Committee of Chengdu Universiade that Chengdu Universiade has implemented 44 smart APPlication projects and developed the "Dayuntong" app in nine aspects, including all-green energy supply, low-carbon transportation, 5G sharing, scientific and technological epidemic prevention and safe competition.
On the roads around the Universiade venues, nearly 500 "wisdom trees" attract attention.

Chengdu is accelerating the construction of smart cities. Taking people’s sense of gain and happiness as the fundamental starting point, we have solved the problem of "fragmentation and decentralization" in community governance. Nowadays, cutting-edge technologies such as the Internet of Things, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and blockchain have taken root in large and small communities in Chengdu, and the communities here are becoming more and more "avant-garde".

"Tianfu Citizen Cloud" platform.
The community quickly opened up a map of residents’ online life for one kilometer, relying on the platform of Chengdu government service "Tianfu Citizen Cloud". Since its launch in 2018, "Tianfu Citizen Cloud" has integrated more than 700 urban services, with the number of registered users exceeding 11 million, and the satisfaction of citizens has exceeded 92% for three consecutive years. The service scope covers the whole life cycle, and the service tentacles reach from the municipal level to the community. "Tianfu Citizen Cloud" has become a "must-have" APP in Chengdu.
According to the latest data, the permanent population of Chengdu at the end of 2021 was 21.192 million. Chengdu has always been a city of good governance, from Zhang Yi to Li Bing. The history of more than 2,300 years of city construction has nurtured the spirit of openness, tolerance and pioneering spirit of this city, and also nourished the vitality source of continuous innovation.
In the decisive battle for the Universiade, epidemic prevention and control is also a top priority. In January this year, the "Smart Rongcheng" epidemic prevention and control platform was officially launched, including many functions such as grassroots investigation and nucleic acid detection. The epidemic prevention and control will achieve "one code to the end, one person and one file, and one end is universal". Closed-loop management will be implemented during the whole competition, and all the closed-loop staff serving the competition will live in a centralized manner during the competition and be isolated after the competition. If there is an emergency, people outside the closed loop must enter the closed loop, and the venue has also set up a buffer zone to protect people from entering and leaving. "At present, epidemic prevention materials have been counted and all general materials have been put in place." Wang Ling, manager of the central medical working group of the swimming and diving hall of Dong ‘an Lake Sports Park, said that from the end of February to the beginning of July, she and her colleagues will stay in the venue for nearly five months to ensure the epidemic prevention and medical safety of the event.
Build a safe defense line for epidemic prevention and control, and the plan should be ahead. The reporter learned that the Chengdu Universiade has also established a big data statistics platform, which realizes real-time dynamic management of "pre-epidemic prevention, remote prevention and control, pre-competition verification and post-competition tracking" in the whole process. Through data analysis, event management can grasp the epidemic prevention situation of each event in real time and do a good job in epidemic risk prevention and control to the maximum extent.
New development concept makes the city upgrade iteratively.
At the intersection of Jiannan Avenue and Tianfu 1st Street along the Universiade, there is a small garden with green grass — — Diligence Garden. In the past, it was a wasteland, but now it is full of vitality. The bright green space has become a good place for nearby citizens to take a walk and relax.

Splicing urban space with ecological background, Universiade reshapes urban form, and is embroidering a green "new picture" for Chengdu.
Mr. Xu, a citizen who lives near Chenglong Road in Jinjiang District, has recently found a new place to play football — — Jinjiang district sports park. As the Universiade approaches, this small park in the past has been demolished and illegally built, and a football field and sports equipment have been added, which has become a punching place for the surrounding citizens’ sports and fitness, which is very popular.
The reporter learned that at present, Chengdu is taking the opportunity of hosting the Universiade to seek the city, starting with the demolition of illegal buildings, the demolition of fences and the increase of public open space, and promoting the "micro-renewal" of the city on a small scale and gradually.

In Chengdu, the "15-minute fitness circle" can be seen everywhere, and at the same time, the public service system of national fitness with Tianfu Greenway as the link is becoming more and more perfect. To build a fitness and vitality capital, Chengdu’s greatest strength is the 16,900-kilometer world’s longest "Tianfu Greenway" system under construction. The "Tianfu Greenway" running through the whole region is a sports track around Chengdu people, with mountains, forests, lakes, pastoral areas and other landscapes superimposed, providing a natural environment for daily sports and professional outdoor events.

According to the Construction Plan of Chengdu’s "14th Five-Year Plan", by 2025, the total scale of sports industry in Chengdu will exceed 150 billion yuan, and the total scale of sports consumption in the city will exceed 80 billion yuan. The new scene of sports consumption that is constantly "implanted" in the greenway has also made the sports industry of this city take off.
Located in Qingyang District, Chengdu, the sports complex of Xicun Courtyard is semi-enclosed, with 1.6 kilometers of air runway, light football field and other facilities, with an annual average reception volume of 3.5 million. Recently, the list of national sports industry demonstration bases, units and projects was announced, and three Chengdu projects, including Nishimura Courtyard, were successfully selected into the "national team" of sports industry.
From the first mention of the park city to the construction of a park city demonstration area practicing the new development concept, sports Chengdu is becoming a "new expression" of the vitality of the park city, which also drives the city’s energy level to jump.
