2024 marks the 25th anniversary of Macau's return to the motherland. On this auspicious occasion, the second season of the Silk Road Exhibition, "Macau Morocco Exhibition: A Leaf's Journey," jointly planned and launched by the International Online Loulan Operations Center and CGTN Cultural Program Department, was held at the Spring Morning Courtyard of Shijingshan Sculpture Park in Beijing. The theme of this event is "A Leaf's Journey: From Macau Port to Morocco", aiming to use tea as a medium to invite cultural ambassadors from all over the world to share tea feelings and showcase the exchange and mutual learning of Eastern and Western civilizations.

Hubei Tea Group, as an invited enterprise, participated in this event with its AI intelligent tea brewing machine and six capsule teas.
The AI intelligent tea brewing machine can intelligently recognize tea types such as black tea, green tea, green brick tea, flower tea, etc. with just a scan, and calculate the corresponding tea brewing temperature and time through AI. Using modern tea extraction technology, beneficial substances are extracted, simplifying the previous tedious tea brewing process into a simple cup of coffee. In 30 seconds, novice tea makers can enjoy "master tea", allowing more consumers to easily and conveniently taste Chu Tian's good tea.
The current six capsule teas are Enshi Yulu, Lichuan Hong, Hongfen Jiaren, Jasmine Tea, Chibi Green Brick Tea, and Chibi Rice Brick Tea. The tea leaves of these six capsule teas are all produced in Hubei, allowing guests from home and abroad to taste the taste of Chutian tea and showcase the charm of Hubei tea.
This event carefully set up a unique segment - a live PK between a real tea artist and an AI intelligent tea brewing machine. In this showdown, several tasting guests were specially arranged to wear eye masks to ensure that they would not know in advance who brewed the tea they were tasting.

With the host's command, the tea artist skillfully carried out a series of operations such as warming the cup, waking the tea, brewing, etc., showing composure and composure in every movement; And the AI tea brewing machine also did not fall behind, completing a series of tea brewing processes in an orderly manner according to the preset program, from adjusting the water temperature to controlling the brewing time, each step is precise and efficient.
During the competition between the two sides, the atmosphere on site was lively and tense. The audience was fully focused on the exciting collision of traditional skills and modern technology. As the competition ended, the guests took off their blindfolds and entered the tea tasting session. They carefully observe the difference between two cups of tea, striving to distinguish which cup is the meticulous work of a tea artist and which cup is the result of an AI tea brewing machine.

This PK between a real tea artist and an AI intelligent tea brewing machine is not only a competition of skills, but also an in-depth exploration of the broad application scenarios of artificial intelligence. I believe that in the near future, artificial intelligence will bring convenience and surprises to more people's lives with its unlimited potential.
Hubei Tea Group will continue to implement the "Ten Measures for Tea", vigorously carry out brand optimization and market development actions, promote international tea culture exchange, mutual learning and cooperation, contribute more tea wisdom, tea technology and tea strength, enhance the international popularity and reputation of “CHUTIANHAO” Tea brand, and promote the historical famous tea of Hubei to spread throughout the world.
