China city nightlife competition, who loves eating, drinking and having fun?

Nightlife guide
Recently, "night economy" has been discussed more and more frequently.
First, the dispute between North and South. Southerners said, I came to the north, and there was no nightlife since then; Northerners retort, who says there is no nightlife in Beijing?
The discussion about nightlife is not limited to the dispute between North and South. Since the beginning of this year, Beijing, Tianjin, Chengdu, Chongqing, Shanghai, Jinan and other places have made moves to "light up" urban nightlife. The most striking thing is probably Shanghai. In April this year, Shanghai appointed the first batch of night district heads and nightlife CEOs.
Then, the ultimate test is coming. Which cities are the most active at night?
The country is a through train.

In China, many people’s food problems are solved by take-away. Some people spent 250,000 yuan a year ordering takeout, others ordered 2,567 takeout orders a year, and some people bought 74 Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs at a time …
If you stay at home, you will have something to eat, and the takeaway brother has contributed. They are not only busy during the day, but also active in delivering bills at night. From the night delivery trajectory of takeaway brother, we can also judge the activity of a city’s "night economy".

Judging from the activity of night riders, many cities with "night economy" are well-deserved.

From 23: 00 to 24: 00, nearly half of Guiyang, Wuhan and Guangzhou are still walking through the city.

Of course, the night lifestyle is inseparable from the bar. "Have a drink" often marks the beginning of urban nightlife. Bars and nightclubs in Beijing Sanlitun Bar Street and Chengdu Shaoling Road Bar Street are well-known bar gathering areas.

eight

On December 6, 2023, the table tennis mixed team World Cup continued, and the second stage started. After the six rounds of round robin, the title was decided. The Japanese won 8-0, easily defeating China Taipei without Lin Yunru and Zheng Yijing. This result was as expected. As soon as the young teenager Yoshiyama Liao made his debut, Zhang Benzhi and/or Hayata Hina played in the first set of mixed doubles.

In the second stage, eight teams competed for the championship, and the contest between China, Japan and South Korea became the focus of attention of outside fans. In addition, the French team could not be ignored. Japan lost suspense in the first round against Taipei, China, so there was a big gap between the two teams. The Japanese team was the main lineup, and many famous players from Taipei, China, were absent. Only Chen Siyu was ok.

Japan is the main opponent of Guoping in this competition, led by Zhang Benzhihe and Hayata Hina, as well as Yukuke Inoguchi, Zhang Benmihe, Miyuki Hirano, Miyuki Muhara and others. Although Miyoshi Ito didn’t come, on the whole, it is undoubtedly a first-class standard, and Zhang Benzhihe is in good condition. Earlier, Felix was sealed, so we can see the clue, and we really need to pay attention to it.

The situation of China Taipei Team is the opposite. Although it is also a temporary decision to sign up, many famous players are absent, such as Lin Yunru, Chuan Chih Yuan, Gao Chengrui and Zheng Yijing, who are familiar to everyone. These players with good strength have not come over, and Chen Siyu alone is basically hopeless. Being able to enter the second stage is regarded as completing the expected goal. The main thing behind is to train young people and give newcomers more opportunities to play.

In the first set of mixed doubles, Zhang Benzhi and/or Hayata Hina swept Wang Chen 3-0 and/or Chen Yingqian (11-6, 11-5 and 11-5), China Taipei trained newcomers, and Chen Siyu was not arranged to play, so it was understandable to give up this round in advance. In the second set of women’s singles, Hirano Meiyu beat Li Yu 3-0.

In the third set of men’s singles, Yoshiyama Liaoyi defeated Yang Jia ‘an (11-8, 11-8) 2-0, and finally the Japanese beat China Taipei 8-0, winning the first victory in the second stage. This result was in line with expectations. After all, the overall lineup of the China Taipei team was not good, even if it could be played now.

It is worth mentioning that the first show of the second stage of table tennis was held at 19: 30 on December 6th. The opponent was Slovakia with weak comprehensive strength. There was no difficulty in this game, so no matter how the coaching staff arranged it, there was no suspense in winning the game. Many fans predicted that they would win eight games in a row easily, so let’s wait and see, and wish China players excellent results in advance. Come on!
