Kipchaug, 37, took a long lead in the final stage and crossed the finish line in 2 hours, 2 minutes and 40 seconds, which increased the record of the games by 1 minute and 18 seconds. This is also the fourth best result in the official competition in history, three of which were created by Kipchak himself.

The Tokyo Marathon is also Kipchak’s fourth Grand Slam marathon, after winning in Berlin, London and Chicago. As long as he wins the New York Marathon and Boston Marathon, he can realize his wish for a full slam.

Kipchaug, who won the Olympic Games in Tokyo last year, had the opportunity to challenge his world record, but when he was about 10km away, he and several leading players ran in the wrong direction near a turn back point, wasting about 10 seconds, which also disrupted their rhythm. His final result was 1 minute and 01 seconds slower than his world record.

Another Kenyan player, kipruto, came in second with a score of 2 hours, 3 minutes and 13 seconds, also breaking the record. Japan’s national record holder Kengo Suzuki finished fourth.

In the women’s competition, kosgay won the championship in 2 hours, 16 minutes and 02 seconds, and the record of the competition was 1 minute and 43 seconds faster.

The 2021 Tokyo Marathon was postponed twice because of the epidemic. Although there are still many newly confirmed cases in Japan every day, the organizing committee resumed the mass group competition, but reduced the scale of the competition, with a total number of participants of no more than 25000. The 2022 Tokyo Marathon has been cancelled because of the epidemic. (end)

In terms of version division, N3 is a conventional version, while n3e is a performance enhanced version. It is planned to be mass produced in 2024. However, according to the current technical constraints, n3e has become a simplified version with reduced specifications.

It is reported that the n3e process will use fewer EUV lithography layers, which will be reduced from 25 layers to 21 layers. It is less difficult to put into production, higher yield and lower cost. However, the transistor density will be about 8% lower than that of the N3 version and 60% higher than that of the N5 version.

Although the process has shrunk, the improvement of yield and the decline of cost are not bad for today’s excess performance of consumer chips.

It is reported that the design of the chip is expected to be completed by the end of this month, and mass production is expected to be realized in the second quarter of 2023.

Walking into Dafang County Xinjian Fumin agricultural development professional cooperative, the raw materials of mushroom sticks are stacked on the roadside, waiting for processing, sealing and selling all over the country.

Tian Jineng, 58, is a large Chinese herbal medicine grower in Xintian village. Relying on Dongsun and Gastrodia elata alone, he can earn more than 100000 yuan (RMB, the same below) a year. In addition, Tian Jineng also works in the village’s Xinjian Fumin agricultural development professional cooperative. According to the orders received by the cooperative, he works flexibly and can get a salary of nearly 5000 yuan per quarter. “With a high income, I eat well, my life has improved, and I have saved some money for my children.” Tianji can make its own arrangements for income.

Xinjian Fumin agricultural development professional cooperative, established in September 2016, is the collective industry of Xintian village. At present, the cooperative has Dongsun planting, strain production and other projects, with a total investment of more than 4.72 million yuan, leading the people to develop Dongsun planting of more than 700 Mu and produce 150 tons of strains.

In addition to the village’s cooperatives, Xintian village has also successfully created an “enclave economy” of “jumping out of Xintian and developing Xintian”, realizing the benefit of multiple villages in one industry. In zhuzhonghe village next to Xintian village, five ponds of Wumeng Mountain spring crayfish breeding base are lined up in turn, located between the two mountains.

Xintian village is mainly hilly, with an altitude of 1300-1500 meters. The rocky desertification is serious, and there is no paddy field within the administrative scope of the village.

In 2019, Peng Zhengyu, who was appointed as the first Secretary of Xintian village by the Central Committee of the agricultural labor party, negotiated with the village cadres, transferred more than 100 mu of idle rice fields in the adjacent zhuzhonghe village and Longgong community, raised funds from various sources, and cooperated with zhuzhonghe village to build this crayfish breeding base.

The breeding base adopts the mode of “cooperatives + companies + farmers” and connects 184 households and 570 poor households in Xintian village to obtain share dividends. Since the base was completed and put into operation, it can generate more than 220000 yuan for the collective economy of Xintian village every year and increase the income of each household by more than 1000 yuan. At the same time, the base also led 108 households in zhuzhonghe village, Yangchang village and Longgong community nearby to benefit from land transfer and local work, realizing resource sharing and win-win among village collectives.

“The crayfish here is raised with mountain spring water. The meat is white and the belly is white. It tastes good!” Yang Mingjun, the person in charge of the base, said that the crayfish produced by the base is often in short supply in the market, and are basically booked early by surrounding merchants.

Meng Xianyun, deputy director of Xintian village committee, introduced that the development of Xintian village industry enables people to not only get land transfer fees, but also work in cooperatives. The initial distribution of labor reaches 112000 yuan, benefiting 40 farmers. The developing rural economy also attracts young people in the village to return to the village for development. The road of Rural Revitalization in Xintian village is becoming wider and wider. (end)
