  Moutai has always been one of the “pronouns” of Guizhou Province from its “one fall to fame” at the Panama World Expo a hundred years ago to becoming the first stock of China’s A stock market in 2020. However, Guizhou, known as China's "park province", actually has not only Moutai, but also "poems and distant places."

  Relying on the unique ecological environment and unique microbial resources of the Chishui River Valley, Chinese Maotai-flavored liquor represented by Kweichow Moutai is thriving. In the Chishui River Basin, nine of China's top ten sauce-flavor liquor companies are located in Guizhou. The Chishui River Basin in Guizhou accounts for 83% of the national liquor production capacity with a liquor production capacity of more than 500,000 kiloliters.

  The government work report issued at the two sessions of Guizhou Province in 2020 proposed that it will promote the construction of a world-class sauce-flavor liquor industry cluster. The official will build the Chishui River Basin Industrial Belt into the core area of ​​soy-flavored wine in the world, and promote the growth of Guizhou liquor industry cluster as a vane for the future development of the industry.

  In order to realize the above vision, Guizhou, as one of the first batch of national ecological civilization experimental areas in China, established a cross-provincial river basin ecological compensation mechanism with Yunnan and Sichuan, signed the "Chishui River Basin Horizontal Ecological Compensation Agreement", and jointly developed the Chishui River Basin Ecological environmental governance.

  The Governor of Guizhou Province Chen Yiqin once said that a good ecological environment is the biggest development and competitive advantage of Guizhou Province. It is necessary to build a national ecological civilization experimental zone, consolidate, improve, and make good use of the ecological advantages, so that the green water and green mountains will always become the "happy real estate" and "green cash machine" for the people of Guizhou.

  Located in Chishui City on the banks of the Chishui River, 1.328 million acres of bamboo forests are filled with infinite wealth. According to Tang Shangqiu, a villager in Aihua Village, Bing’an Town, Chishui City, “The green mountains and green waters of his hometown are the “golden rice bowls”. Travel, homestays, dendrobium, and bamboo can all make a fortune. “As long as you work hard, you will not be well-off. Question." Tang Shangqiu, who became a "net celebrity" by posting puppy videos on social platforms, seized the business opportunity and incorporated local agricultural products such as Dendrobium nobile and bamboo shoots into the video and joined the trend of "carrying goods" on the Internet.

  As the only province in China that is not supported by plains, 92.5% of Guizhou's landform area is mountainous and hilly. The province's forest coverage rate reaches 58.5%. The forest coverage rate is expected to reach 60% in 2020. The unique natural ecology and the extraordinary craftsmanship of nature have created Guizhou’s dotted waterfalls, karst caves, canyons, and hot springs; the "colorful Guizhou" created by 17 ethnic minorities for a long time is infiltrated by the national culture, language, song and dance, festival customs, costumes, and architecture. With a unique national customs.

  Affected by the epidemic, in the first half of 2020, the total number of tourists in Guizhou Province was 173 million, down 69.9% from the same period in 2019; total tourism revenue was 142.401 billion yuan, down 75.2% from the same period in 2019.

  However, Guizhou is still full of confidence in the development of tourism. The Ministry of Culture and Tourism of China resumed inter-provincial (regional, municipal) team travel and "air ticket + hotel" business on the evening of July 14. On the 15th, Guizhou invited tourists to start a summer vacation. Zhang Yuguang, director of the Guizhou Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, said that with an average altitude of 1,100 meters and an average summer temperature of 23°C, Guizhou has ushered in the most pleasant and pleasant season of the year.

  The green waters and green mountains are about to make Guizhou completely tear off the label of absolute poverty. In 2019, the province's regional GDP was 1,676.934 billion yuan, an increase of 8.3%, and the growth rate ranked first in China for 9 consecutive years, and ranked first in China for 3 consecutive years. Since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the number of registered poverty-stricken people in Guizhou has decreased from 9.23 million to 308,300, an annual reduction of more than 1 million, and the incidence of poverty has dropped from 26.8% to 0.85%. There are 57 impoverished counties in 66 national-level counties. The “decapitated” exits and completed the relocation of 1.88 million people, the largest in China. Guizhou has changed from the province with the largest number of poor people in China to the province with the largest number of poverty reduction in China.

  At the National Two Sessions in 2020, Guizhou Provincial Party Committee Secretary Sun Zhigang said that Guizhou will keep the two bottom lines of development and ecology, speed up the construction of three national pilot zones, and truly turn green mountains and mountains into golden mountains and silver mountains.
