China-Singapore Jingwei Client, May 23 (Zhang Yanzheng Gao Ping Ning) Wang Jinming from Chongqing, 42 years old this year.

Now I can talk and communicate, and my body is recovering better.

When I first entered the hospital, I was tired and confused, his hands and feet were cold, his hands, feet, and knees were injured, and he was stabbed by stones and plants.

  Wang Jinming said that this is his first time participating in the Gansu Mountain Marathon cross-country competition.

"A total of 9 replenishment stations have been set up throughout the journey, with one replenishment station every 10 kilometers or so. The extreme weather occurred between the two stations, all of which were uphill and steep."

  "My senior sister's friend participated in the Baili cross-country race in this Gansu mountain marathon. Before the departure, the other party took a photo with the cross-country runner Liang Jing. I didn't expect such an excellent cross-country runner to stop the silver." Beijing senior cross-country runner Mr. Jia told the Sino-Singapore Jingwei client that his friend had withdrawn safely, and he was still immersed in grief and he did not want to be interviewed.

  As of 12 a.m. on the 23rd, 21 people have been confirmed dead in this 172-person race, including elite runners including Ningbo Jiangnan 100-mile champion Liang Jing, well-known Chinese runners Cao Pengfei, Huang Yinbin, and Paralympic champion Huang Guanjun. .

  The Yellow River Stone Forest Mountain Marathon 100-kilometer Cross-Country Race Lost Rescue Headquarters introduced that on the morning of the 22nd, the Yellow River Stone Forest Mountain Marathon 100-kilometer Cross-Country Race was held in the Yellow River Stone Forest Scenic Spot in Jingtai County, Baiyin City, Gansu Province.

At about 1 p.m. that day, the high-altitude stage of the 100-kilometer cross-country race was between 20 kilometers and 31 kilometers. Affected by sudden extreme weather, severe weather such as hail, freezing rain, and strong wind occurred locally, the temperature dropped sharply, and participants experienced physical discomfort. In the event of loss of temperature, some participants lost contact, and the game was stopped.

At 8 o'clock in the morning on May 23, the official Weibo of the Yellow River Stone Forest Scenery announced that the scenic spot will be closed urgently and the opening time will be notified separately.

"1600 yuan subsidy will be issued upon completion of the competition"

  One of the first runners to safely withdraw to the finish line, the runners of the mountain marathon 100-kilometer cross-country race "Living in the South" wrote an article that recalled what happened.

  "Living in the South" revealed in the article that this event is the fourth marathon.

In the previous competitions, the organization work was so-so, but after the competition, a subsidy of 1,600 yuan will be issued. After the 1,000 yuan registration fee is removed, the net profit of 600 yuan will be earned at the end of the race. The competition fees for players in general regions are basically covered.

  Some people think that the cross-country race track is the easiest in the country, because the overall climb is not large and the track difficulty is low.

However, from the perspective of "Living in the South", the overall track altitude is around 2000 meters, and most of them are in no-man's land after exiting the scenic spot. In addition, the closing time of the track is 20 hours, which is difficult for some entry-level players to complete.

  "Living in the South" said that the problem with this year's competition was extreme weather, and the temperature in the scenic spot dropped sharply within a short period of time.

In addition, in the most difficult stage of CP3, the mountain was a mixture of rock and sand. Players needed to use both hands and feet to climb up, and no supplies were provided in this stage.

With his whole body drenched and his fingers cold to the point of unawareness, he chose to retire.

  In the view of Mr. Jia, a marathon enthusiast, the "Gansu Mountain Marathon Accident" was not only a natural disaster, but also a man-made disaster.

Mr. Jia believes that the biggest difference between a mountain marathon and an urban marathon is that most sections of the mountain horse are carried out in a mountain environment, and there are certain requirements for the height difference and slope of the road surface.

"The climate in mountainous areas is changeable. The activist should have various emergency plans and invest in more supply stations. However, the activist's supply station and rescue capabilities are obviously insufficient this time."

  "Generally speaking, the threshold for participating in a 100-kilometer cross-country marathon is very high. For example, it is required to have completed at least 2 full marathons or 1 cross-country race of 50 kilometers and above in the past year. So athletes who can participate in this level of competition Most of them are top cross-country players." Mr. Jia said that this event "lost half of the outstanding cross-country personnel."

The operator won nearly 4 million bids in the first three years

  According to Xinhua News Agency, the event was hosted by the Baiyin Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government and undertaken by Jingtai County. The operation of the event was handled by Gansu Shengjing Sports and Culture Development Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Gansu Shengjing Sports).

  According to Tianyancha APP, Gansu Shengjing Sports Culture Development Co., Ltd. was registered on September 2, 2016. The registered address is No. 14, Xinglong Street, Jingyuan County, Baiyin City, Gansu Province. The registered capital is RMB 5 million. The legal representative is Wu Shiyuan. The scope includes: corporate marketing planning, marketing planning, corporate image planning, sports event planning, etc.

From the perspective of shareholding structure, executive director and general manager Wu Shiyuan holds 50% of the shares, and supervisor Zhang Xiaoyan holds 50%.

  In addition to operating the aforementioned Gansu Shengjing Sports Company, Wu Shiyuan also worked in 8 companies including Gansu Fuyuantang Biological Health Co., Ltd., Gansu Qianye Runcheng Landscaping Co., Ltd., and Gansu Taiyuan Agriculture Co., Ltd., covering areas including catering, agricultural products, and greening projects. And other items.

  Combining the previous business projects of Gansu Shengjing Sports Company, we can see that in May 2018, the company won the bid for the "Yellow River Stone Forest Scenic Area Management Committee 2018 First Yellow River Stone Forest International 100-kilometer Cross-country Race and the First Yellow River Stone Forest International Marathon Operation Service Project". Won the bid amount of 1.5 million yuan; in July 2019, won the bid for the "First Pingchuan Half Marathon Operation Service Project in Pingchuan District Sports Center, Baiyin City", with a bid of 976,800 yuan; in October of the same year, won the bid for "Jingyuan County Sports, Sports, Radio, Television and Tourism Administration's 2019 Jingyuan Third International Marathon Operation Service Project", won the bid amount of 1.495 million yuan.

  According to Jingtairong Media, this year's Yellow River Stone Forest 100-kilometer Cross-Country Race has set up three events: healthy running, 21 kilometers cross-country and 100 kilometers cross-country.

Among them, the 100-kilometer cross-country race route is: the entrance of the Yellow River Stone Forest Scenic Area (starting point)-Baozigou Square-viewing platform-Changsheng Village-Zhujiayao-Fujiaxian-Jinping Village-Qijiaquan-Baozigou Square (end point), 100 The number of participants in the kilometer cross-country race is limited to 400 people.

  However, the Sino-Singapore Jingwei client inquired on the China Government Procurement Website and the official website of the Baiyin City Public Resources Trading Center, but did not find relevant bidding information for the Yellow River Stone Forest Mountain Marathon.

  In an interview with the Sino-Singapore Jingwei Client, the person in charge of a sports event, Mr. Yang, said that from the perspective of the competition process, any sports competition must first be reported to the local government.

Secondly, you must get in touch with the local sports bureau. Only after obtaining the approval of the relevant department can you be qualified to bid and introduce the relevant organizer to organize the corresponding competition.

  Mr. Yang said that, generally speaking, as the organizer of sports events, after receiving the project, he will first explore the route and investigate the local site conditions and climatic factors.

The competition is set according to factors such as closed or open competitions, and the level of participants.

In addition, the competition organizing committee will also set up emergency plans to fully ensure the safety of all participants' lives and property.

  "Neither can be careless about regular events. As time and environment change, the conditions of the event venue are also different. For example, some sections of the road will be damaged or interrupted, requiring the event party to adjust the route and logistical support in time." Mr. Yang introduced, organizing large-scale events. Outdoor marathon cross-country running is more difficult. In view of the diversity of mountain climate, it is not only necessary to keep track of weather changes, but also to refer to the weather change data of the region in the past three years.

In the event of an unexpected situation, the organizer must promptly stop the game.

  "It can be said that any game is a'crowd tactic'. For example, the service staff of the Beijing Marathon is about 1:5, or 1:3. That is to say, a player participating in the competition has at least three people to serve, including Photography, videography, volunteers and other service personnel, while cross-country marathons are generally located in very remote places, which increases transportation and labor costs." Mr. Yang said.

The marathon race becomes a "sweet potato"

  As people pay more and more attention to sports, the marathon industry has ushered in development opportunities. Marathons have been held across the country. The number of related games and the number of runners have increased significantly, and the scale of marathon-related markets has increased sharply.

  According to the "2019 Marathon Data Analysis Report" released by the Chinese Athletic Association, in 2019, China held a total of 1,828 marathon-scale events, an increase of 247 from the previous year, an increase of 15.6% year-on-year; the total number of participants in the national marathon and related events has reached a cumulative total of It was 7,125,600, an increase of 22.22% from the previous year's 5.83 million. Compared with the 4.98 million in 2017 and the 2.8 million in 2016, the number of runners increased significantly.

  As the country's top individual event with the longest history, the highest popularity, and the largest scale, the number of registrations for the Beijing Marathon has been increasing year by year.

Because of the large number of applicants, the organizers of the Beijing Marathon designed a lottery system. In 2019, the winning rate of the Beijing Marathon was only 16.9%.

  In addition to the low winning rate, in recent years, marathon registration fees have generally increased in price.

Mr. Wei, who has participated in the full marathon four times, told the Sino-Singapore Jingwei client, “For example, in 2018, the registration fee for a full marathon in a city I participated in was 120 yuan. In 2019, it rose to 150 yuan, and now it is generally around 200 yuan. The registration fee for the marathon is more expensive, rising from four to five hundred yuan in previous years to about one thousand yuan now."

  Financial data of Zhongao Road Sports Management Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Zhongao Road Running), the long-term event operator of Beijing International Marathon, shows that in 2019, the net profit of Zhongao Road Running exceeded 55 million yuan.

  However, due to the impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, sporting events once stalled.

The financial report of Wisdom Sports Group, a Hong Kong-listed company, shows that in 2020, the revenue of the competition operation department will sharply drop by 99.1% to only 700,000 yuan, and the group's total revenue will drop by 94.4%, totaling 8.942 million yuan, and a loss of 43.985 million yuan.

According to the 2020 annual financial report of China Sports Industry, the net profit of Zhongao Roadrun fell to 393,100 yuan.

  With the gradual improvement of the epidemic situation, marathon events in various regions will fully recover in 2021, and Beijing, Xi'an, Chengdu and other places have "fired and started."

The Sino-Singapore Jingwei client searched the China Government Procurement Network and found that since 2021, there have been 75 announcements about bidding and winning bids related to marathon events in various regions.
