[Hubei 200000 ton polycrystalline silicon project starts construction]Recently, Longchang (Hubei) Silicon Industry Co., Ltd., located in Dawu County Economic Development Zone, Xiaogan City, Hubei Province, started construction of a 200000 ton annual polycrystalline silicon project. This project aims to process and produce high-purity industrial silicon through the recycling of discarded photovoltaic power panels and the purification and regeneration of waste silicon powder after photovoltaic crystal silicon cutting. The planned investment is 500 million yuan, covering an area of 110 acres and a factory building area of 80000 square meters. After all projects are put into operation, the expected annual output value is 2 billion yuan, the annual tax revenue is 60 million yuan, and 200 job opportunities are provided. The commencement of this project will further strengthen the recycling and utilization industry chain of waste photovoltaic modules, promote the efficient utilization of renewable energy, improve the resource utilization rate of the photovoltaic industry in Dawu County, and inject new vitality into the development of Dawu's green circular economy.

On May 28th, the Ministry of Natural Resources and eight other departments issued the "Guiding Opinions on Accelerating the High Quality Development of Marine Drugs and Functional Products", which is the first policy document at the national level for the development of the marine biopharmaceutical industry. The guidance emphasizes the overall strengthening of the construction of the full chain innovation system of "resource chain+technology chain+industry chain+application chain" in the industry, promoting the deep integration of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation, and achieving the listing of multiple marine innovative drugs by 2030, with the added value of the industry exceeding 130 billion yuan. Marine drugs have a wide range of sources, novel structures, unique activities, and strong differences. Currently, China's independently developed marine drugs account for nearly 30% of the global marketed categories.Editor/Gong Ziwei
According to the data on May 27, 2026, since the opening of the China Laos Railway in December 2021, more than 100000 passenger trains have been operated, 73 million passengers have been sent, and 840000 cross-border passengers have been sent. After nearly five years of operation, the passenger flow of the entire line has significantly increased, with both the middle and old sections experiencing a significant increase in operating schedules and daily passenger flow. International passenger train capacity and seats continue to increase, port clearance efficiency is optimized, and cross-border travel is becoming increasingly convenient. The continuous release of connectivity value by the route has driven increased consumption and revenue along the route. This year, passenger and cross-border flow data have steadily increased year-on-year, with significant benefits and empowerment effects for the people.Editor/Gong Ziwei
