To witness and celebrate the monumental moment of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, a globally acclaimed endeavor, starting from the 14th, Shiyan Evening News has launched a special commemorative issue titled "The Great River Flows North" for the Middle Route of the project. In collaboration with Taiji Lake Cultural Tourism Company, they are hosting a "Read the Newspaper, Answer Questions, Win Big Prizes" campaign. Readers who correctly answer five daily questions about the South-to-North Water Diversion Project can receive a 128-yuan yacht ticket for the "Taiji Lake Witness Tour."
Since the launch of the event, reader participation has been enthusiastic, with many holding their answer sheets and heading to the Shiyan Evening News and Taiji Lake pier ticket offices to redeem tickets. The daily limit of 600 boat tickets has been consistently replenished. Starting on the 14th, Taiji Lake’s water attractions have seen a steady stream of readers arriving with tickets. Last Saturday, the number of readers visiting Taiji Lake with tickets reached a new high.

Readers are reminded that even after all the boat tickets are claimed, the quiz will continue. Participants can still submit their "answer sheets" to the Shiyan Evening News editorial office to enter the draw for the "Grand Prize." Prizes include: three first-place winners, each receiving an experience cruise on an Italian luxury yacht Ferretti (each winner may bring three guests); nine second-place winners, each receiving an experience cruise on an imported French sailboat or an imported American yacht named “Carefree” (each winner may bring three guests); and 30 third-place winners, each receiving a seaplane experience cruise.
Additionally, to further reward participants, Taiji Lake Company promises that ticket holders, besides enjoying a free yacht ride and attending the evening torch carnival featuring ethnic performances such as authentic Wa ethnic rituals, fire ceremonies, torch relays, torch parades, cold firework celebrations, and glow-in-the-dark masquerade parties, will also receive a 20% discount on all water activities including jet skis, seaplanes, water bicycles, kayaks, speedboats, and parasailing boats. Moreover, Taiji Lake Company reminds participants to keep their event tickets, as follow-up free or discounted wellness and entertainment services will be offered to event attendees.
