During the event, the office held a tourism information session for local residents titled "Nihao! China — Starting from Hokkaido, Explore China." At the booth, the office distributed the latest editions of Chinese travel guides and tourist maps, and organized interactive lucky draws. Visitors were encouraged to follow the office's official social media accounts and scan QR codes to access digital travel brochures. The information session began with a systematic introduction to China's policies and services designed to facilitate travel for foreign visitors. The office then highlighted tourism resources in Beijing and Shanghai, with a focus on direct flight routes from Sapporo's New Chitose Airport to China. For Beijing, the presentation covered practical travel services, including entry procedures, subway travel and tax refunds for departing visitors, as well as cultural experiences popular among overseas tourists. For Shanghai, the office promoted classic itineraries such as the Bund historical area and water towns, along with a new Shanghai Disney Resort package recently launched on Japanese online travel platforms, giving individual and family travelers more options. The office also introduced the "Jingdezhen Handmade Porcelain Industry Heritage," which was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in July 2026. Known as the "Porcelain Capital" for its centuries-old ceramic tradition, Jingdezhen offers heritage sites and pottery-making experiences that highlight the connection between traditional culture and modern tourism.

。在 2022 年离职前,
萨莱克曾长期负责谷歌的 TPU 业务,主导并交付了前七代 TPU 芯片。

二 | 萨莱克还曾就职于英伟达,在离开谷歌后,萨莱克曾出任私募股权投资机构塞伯罗斯资本管理公司的高级董事总经理。目前,Anthropic 的芯片主要采购自英伟达、谷歌以及亚马逊等多家供应商。不过,这家总部位于旧金山的公司近期已释放出打造内部自研芯片业务的信号,并已启动相关岗位的招聘。IT之家获悉,与其他 AI 巨头类似,Anthropic 正全力扩充数据中心基础设施以支撑其发展野心。自研定制芯片不仅有望缓解供应链紧缺的压力,还能通过量身定制的硬件架构更好地匹配自身算法需求。其竞争对手、ChatGPT 的母公司 OpenAI 也在布局相同赛道。OpenAI 此前已公布了与博通联合研发的自研芯片“Jalapeño”,并计划于今年晚些时候正式投入使用。
