NANCHANG, CHINA - Media OutReach Newswire – 15 November 2024 - Recently, at the 8th China Intangible Cultural Heritage Expo, Jiangxi's paper-cutting, traditional Chinese medicine, ceramics, and other intangible cultural heritage crafts gained great attention from many media outlets and visitors.

Jiangxi's intangible cultural heritage is rich and varied. These crafts and projects not only reflect the remarkable achievements of Jiangxi people in opera, textile, ceramic production, folk culture, and other areas but also showcase the diversity and uniqueness of Jiangxi culture.

Jiangxi Ruichang paper-cutting is one of the national-level intangible cultural heritages. During festivals such as the Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, local residents will use ordinary red paper to cut out patterns of flowers, birds, insects, fish, and other designs, expressing their aspirations for a wonderful life.

The skills of Chinese herbal medicine processing are also techniques accumulated over thousands of years by Jiangxi people, attracting the attention of many foreign friends. Jiayi, a graduate student majoring in acupuncture and thermosensitive moxibustion at Jiangxi University of Chinese Medicine, is currently learning the skill of processing Fructus Aurantii.

In Nanchang, Jiangxi, porcelain plate painting has been handed down through generations. This craft involves painting on porcelain and firing it, developing on the basis of traditional Chinese painting techniques, ceramic painting, and Western photography. It is now also popular among young people.

Jiangxi's intangible cultural heritages originate from the lives of ordinary people and reflect the unique local materials and culture. These special skills are also favored by many international students.

Recently, Jiangxi will also hold a series of intangible cultural heritage performances, hoping that more young people and overseas friends can learn about these crafts' culture and ensure they are passed down and preserved for future generations.

• Trade Republic set a new standard for the banking industry, by passing through the ECB interest rate directly to its customers since January 2023. This accumulated to more than 1 billion euro in interest payments in under 2 years.

• Europe's largest savings platform is thus once again demonstrating its commitment to change the status quo as the average European household loses over 700 euro per year, by not getting enough interest on their cash deposits.

• With 3.25 percent interest per year, 1 percent Saveback on card payments, and free savings plans, Trade Republic offers the fairest savings options for all Europeans.

BERLIN, GERMANY - EQS Newswire - 15 November 2024 - Trade Republic, Europe's largest savings platform, has reached the next milestone: Since the introduction of the interest offer in January 2023, over 1 billion euro in interest has been passed on to customers across Europe. For several months now, Trade Republic has been setting a new standard in the banking industry by passing the full ECB interest rates directly through to its customers. The average European household loses over 700 euro per year by not receiving enough interest on their cash deposits according to the latest figures shared from the European Central Bank.

"It's a wide belief that banks only serve their needs and neglect the customer. With Trade Republic we strive to change that. We pursue to offer the most attractive banking offering, fair and transparent. That's why we pass the full ECB interest rate to our customers. While all other banks keep a margin to themselves, introduce hidden conditions and time limits", says Christian Hecker, co-founder of Trade Republic. "With our 1 percent Saveback offering on all payments, free ETF savings plans and 3.25 percent interest per year on uninvested cash, a new generation of European savers can now shape their entire financial life with Trade Republic."

According to the latest figures from the European Central Bank the average European household receives just 0.37 percent interest per year. At the same time, 200 Million European households hold around 5 trillion euro in overnight deposits in their accounts. To put this into perspective: The average European household receives an annual interest of 93 euro on their savings, losing over 700 euro by not getting the full ECB interest rate, unlike Trade Republic customers.

Over recent years Trade Republic evolved from a brokerage platform to a broad savings platform with a banking license including an interest bearing account and a card that automatically invests 1 percent of card payments into an asset of your choice, free of charge. Connecting every banking feature with the most efficient way of saving and investing underlines the company's claim to continue to be an innovation driver in the financial technology industry in Europe.

LIMA, PERU / SHANGHAI, CHINA - Media OutReach Newswire - 15 November 2024 - "From Chancay to Shanghai," this expression has become quite popular in Peru, and it has finally become a reality.

China's financial hub Shanghai, which has the world's largest port, is expected to welcome more goods from Latin America. And from Shanghai, these products will be shipped throughout Asia.

The Chancay Port, which was constructed by Chinese companies, allows cargos to be shipped directly from Peru to China — the short transit time will only be 23 days. It has officially opened on November 14.

The port is expected to generate 4.5 billion US dollars of annual economic benefit for Peru, accounting for 1.8% of the GDP. It will also provide thousands of direct and indirect jobs for local people.

All these mean immense business opportunities to Peruvian entrepreneurs.

Alpaca plush toy makers Ysabel Zea has been doing business with China for eight years. She has been attending the China International Import Expo for three years for showing her new products to Chinese consumers.

In the past, it took over 60 days for goods to be shipped from Lima to Shanghai. But the shortening transit means a lot to her.

"It means future. It means works for more artisans in Peru. It means opportunities, more income for families, better education for sons and daughters. It means just hope," says Zea.

It's not only about China and Peru. The Chancay Port also provides growing space to the Asia-Pacific region.

Cargo shipped from Peru to China can make a stop in Shanghai and then go to places like Japan, South Korea and South East Asia.

That means residents in Asia will have better opportunities to enjoy fresher coffee, avocados and blueberries from Latin America.

To Peruvian exporters like Ysabel Zea, the Chancay Port also means their products can reach a larger market.

"Now with the new port of Chancay, many opportunities acome. It will be easier for us to bring our products here to Chancay and then to Shanghai," says Zea.

Now, "From Chancay to Shanghai," this expression has become a reality.
