Chinese Tea In Russian Samovar
An exhibition in Moscow connects Chinese suppliers with Russian consumers By Wang Hairong
While a traditional Chinese-style brick-red robe and long braided hair are not every Russian man’s cup of tea, Andrey Gretchin, a tea brewer and tea ceremony master in Moscow, is at home in both.
At the Sokolniki Exhibition and Convention Center in the Russian capital, he was brewing Chinese tea before carefully pouring it into charming ceramic cups with an image of pink lotuses at the bottom. Visitors were then served the tea in cups placed on delicate leaf-shaped saucers.
“I am interested in tea culture. I opened a teahouse in 2013, and I have visited China every year since to choose teas,” Gretchin told Beijing Review at an exhibition held at the center.
The exhibition, held on November 22-24, was organized by Strong Commerce and Exhibition Co. (SCE), a trade show organizer from Fuzhou in Fujian Province, southeast China, under the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative. Some 60 companies from various regions of China growing and producing tea showcased their products. The exhibition also featured a roundtable on the prospects of Chinese tea in Russia and opportunities for cooperation, as well as tea evaluation and tasting.
“Russians like to drink tea, but they do not yet have a good knowledge of Chinese tea, while most Chinese tea producers are unfamiliar with the Russian market,” SCE Chair Huang Jiguang said at the exhibition.
At present, 70-80 percent of tea products in the Russian tea market originate from countries such as India and Sri Lanka, while those from China account for only 7 percent, Huang said.
平遥县汾河灌区片末级渠系配套工程青落村农渠混凝土防渗工程，原设计为底宽70 cm、高70 cm的梯形防渗渠6条（1-1农～1-6农），共计4 834 m。因占地等矛盾久调不决，致使青落村此6条农渠防渗工程无法实施，并且在项目村内其他区域也无法调整实施，项目村委同意将该部分渠道防渗任务调整到其他项目村实施。

1.1.3 子宫肌瘤 子宫肌瘤是女性生殖系统常见的良性肿瘤，可引起经量异常增多、继发贫血、盆腔疼痛等，还可以改变子宫的解剖结构，进而影响子宫的收缩、蠕动以及内膜的容受性。据统计，以子宫肌瘤作为不孕唯一因素的占不孕女性的1%～3%[19-21]。肌瘤类型不同影响妊娠的机制也不同。有研究认为，黏膜下肌瘤是导致不孕的首要因素[22]。黏膜下肌瘤可影响宫腔面积和血供，使妊娠率和分娩率降低；肌壁间肌瘤对于妊娠和分娩的影响并不明显；而浆膜下肌瘤对于妊娠和流产无明显影响[23]。肌瘤的生长部位对于妊娠也有影响，前壁及后壁的肌瘤较其他部位的肌瘤对妊娠的影响小[24]。
Chen Chengzhi, General Manager of Yunxiao Yinkang Food in Zhangzhou, Fujian, echoed these views. “I feel the market potential is huge,” Chen told Beijing Review . Yunxiao Yinkang exhibited a wide variety of products, and Chen said Russian consumers showed a strong interest in them, with all items selling out.
Tea trade between China and Russia prospered after the 17th century, and a trade route, known in Russia as the Great Tea Road, was formed. In March 2013, during his visit to Russia, President Xi Jinping mentioned the close relations between Chinese tea producers and Russian merchants.
He called the exhibition a good platform for promoting cooperation in tea, saying there are broad prospects for such cooperation. “Eighty percent of Chinese companies received orders at the exhibition,” he said.
China produces about 40 percent of all the tea in the world, and Fujian produces 40 percent of that, according to Huang. He said several ongoing initiatives in China, such as building a beautiful countryside and targeted poverty reduction, will boost tea production in his hometown. Tea planting will generate more income while creating a pleasant environment.
一是基于系统论，靠单一学科仅能看到社会组织人才专业化过程中某方面或某环节的问题，而不能概其全貌，因此，社会组织人才专业化的研究需要综合各个学科、系统，考察影响专业化的各种因素，综合考虑各种因素间的关联，加强建构和建立实现社会组织人才专业化的长效机制方面的研究。
In September of that year, an international alliance of cities along the Great Tea Road was established. Chinese cities in a number of provinces including Fujian, Jiangxi and Hunan joined the alliance, along with cities in Mongolia and Russia.
China proposed the Belt and Road Initiative in 2013, and is developing the Polar Silk Road together with Russia. Chen said the initiatives will boost tea trade between the two countries.
周内尿素连续小幅探涨为市场带来新的操作思路，业内谨慎心态渐感释怀，只是追涨的意愿有限，一旦价格继续探涨，下游需求或将被再度刺激。客观分析全国52%左右的开工率确为高价尿素的保障条件。目前，虽尿素外贸因瓶颈无从谈起，但内需方面却渐被业内认可。预计下周国内尿素主产区出厂报价1900-1950元/吨。
