In the past Beijing Winter Olympics, China's ice and snow athletes won glory for the country, won 1 gold, 6 silver and 4 bronze records, setting a number of "firsts" in China's snow events. And this is partly thanks to the blockchain technology used in the Beijing Olympics. Shilian.com understands that blockchain technology is used in all aspects of the Winter Olympics, providing strong support for food safety, green power supply, copyright protection and government services for the Winter Olympics. The Winter Olympics established a food safety traceability management system based on blockchain technology. In addition to the food safety traceability system, blockchain technology is also used in other important links of the Winter Olympics.
Blockchain empowers traceability systems such as food safety for the Winter Olympics
Everyone knows that food-borne doping has always been a very important food safety issue for large-scale sporting events. Food-derived stimulants usually refer to stimulants that come from food. Food-borne stimulants involve two categories, one is naturally present in the process of food from production to processing; the other is artificially increased in the process and remains in the food. Therefore, food-derived stimulants are divided into two categories: endogenous stimulants naturally present in food and artificially increased exogenous stimulants.
If an athlete unfortunately ingests doping from food and is detected, the consequences will be disastrous. At that time, not only the medals but also the reputation of the country and the reputation of the individual will be lost. Therefore, the elimination of food-derived doping is the primary issue to ensure the food safety of the Winter Olympics.
Don't think that food-derived stimulants are far away from us. In fact, the most common bay leaf in our kitchen contains such stimulants. Yang Chen, chief chef of Yanqing Village for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, said, "Pepper cannot be used in the dishes of Winter Olympic athletes. cannot appear." . Therefore, the food safety of the Winter Olympics athletes is quite strict, especially in the global sports events held under the background of the normalization of the new crown pneumonia epidemic. The food safety of the Beijing Winter Olympics is also facing the challenge of the new crown pneumonia.
So, how to ensure food safety? Food supply chain supervision is one of the key links.
In the words of Xu Jin from the National Center for Food Safety Risk Assessment, it is the whole process of food from entering the general warehouse to being placed on the dining table, and every link may be contaminated by microorganisms. Especially for some imported food, its supply chain is longer.
Therefore, in the long food supply chain, how to efficiently and accurately control the food supply chain is already a big problem. Once a problem is found, how to quickly find out which link has a problem is also very important. The technical characteristics of blockchain technology, such as decentralization, immutability, openness and transparency, and data sharing, just solve these problems.
The Winter Olympics established a food safety traceability management system based on blockchain technology. It is reported that the system anchors food physical and digital identities, ensures that labels and traceability information cannot be forged and tampered with, enables the temperature of the whole process to be monitored, and ensures that the source and destination of food and raw materials from the farm to the dining table are all in the same place. within the scope of control. Once any food safety issues arise, relevant materials can be retrieved as soon as possible to ensure the smooth holding of the Beijing Winter Olympics.
In addition to the food safety traceability system, blockchain technology is also used in other links of the Winter Olympics
On October 26, 2021, the Winter Olympics green power traceability application system based on the main node of the State Grid Changan chain was officially put into use at the Winter Olympics Power Security Service Center of Shougang State Grid Corporation. It is understood that this system integrates the green power module of the Beijing Winter Olympics power operation safety command platform, and with the help of the independent and controllable storage professional capabilities of the Changan Chain, it provides the production, transmission, transaction and reliability of the entire chain of green power for the Winter Olympics. Letter traceability provides strong support, and also provides data support for 100% green power supply.
In addition, Wang Jianxin, the second-level inspector of the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission and the Zhongguancun Management Committee, once affirmed the blockchain technology. He said that the blockchain technology has improved the efficiency of the government. At the same time, China Central Radio and Television also specifically pointed out in the copyright protection plan formulated by the Winter Olympics that with the support of blockchain and other cutting-edge technologies, it has realized the real-time collection of evidence of piracy and infringement such as live broadcasts and short videos, which is convenient for later investigations. Administrative enforcement and legal proceedings.
Therefore, the ice and snow Olympic athletes can win gold medals for the motherland in the Olympic Games, which cannot do without the help of blockchain technology. It is precisely because of the support of blockchain technology that Olympic athletes can eat safe and secure food, and can tell the world at the moment of winning the championship that we won this medal with our own true ability, not because of doping. This is not just an honor for a person, but also for a country. And all of this, in addition to the efforts of athletes and others, is also due to cutting-edge technologies such as blockchain. Without the support of these technologies, the Beijing Winter Olympics may not have been so successful, becoming the second only to Beijing. The Summer Olympics is in people's hearts.
