Our next run is…
Beijing HHH #2086- Inner Mongolia Run II -Ordos run
Huge pure Copper statue in front of Ordos` municipal building (this picture is from Times,Of course, every foreign media would give the pictures of China 50 shades of grey to make it looks like an abandoned Silent Hill ).
You may or may not see a report from New York Times:
Ordos: China’s Modern Ghost Town
Quote: “Founded in February of 2001, Ordos, whose name translates from the Mongolian into “palaces,” is an enigmatic riddle. It is an empty city although it is inhabited and it is richer by far than the nation’s capitol, Beijiing.
Explanations are in order. The city’s 1,548,000 could hardly classify it as a ghost town as far as population numbers go, but much of its futuristic infrastructure is over-developed, unused and under-designed.
The growth of Ordos is positively absurd; its density remains 17.8 people per square kilometer. By comparison, New York City has 157.91 habitants per square kilometer.
(image via: time)
It took five years to build this ghost town with funds created by a $585 billion stimulus package meant to bolster China’s economy despite its painful recession. The Inner Mongolian city was meant to accommodate some one million residents and yet it remains empty.”
“It’s been called the Dubai of northern China, showered with wealth, packed with public infrastructure and located near to precious natural resources in a region plagued by water-supply troubles. But the urban center of Ordos City, known as ‘Kangbashi New Area’, has been mostly deserted for five years. Kangbashi isn’t a ghost town due to economic issues, contamination or any other common cause of such abandonment – the government simply can’t convince people to move there.”
That is the city we are talking about today. If you talk to a Chinese people, mentionning Ordos, first thing coming up is : ghost city. Even though, that is the story of 15 years ago, the stereotype image has been made. “However, by 2017, Kangbashi had become more populated with a resident population of 153,000 and around one-third of apartments occupied. ”
Of course, Ordos is much more than a ghost city.
Ordos is one of the most prosperous regions of China when measured by GDP figures. With a nominal per-capita GDP of US$34,352 and ppp per capita GDP of $65,192 in 2016, it ranks first among prefecture-level divisions in the entire Chinese mainland, and second in the PRC (including Hong Kong & Macau), behind Macau (Nominal GDP per capita: US$67,079; GDP (PPP) per capita: $96,148). It is extremely rich in natural resources, having one sixth of the national coal reserves. The pillars of its economy are textiles (wool), coal mining, petrochemicals, electricity generation, production of building materials, and bitcoin mining. An industrial park in Dalad Banner is home to one of the world’s largest bitcoin ‘mines’ – really a massive server farm – owned by Beijing-based Bitmain.
China is building a third ICBM site near Hanggin Banner, Ordos City, in Inner Mongolia. It will hold more than 100 new DF-41 intercontinental ballistic missiles. It joins two other ICBM fields at Yumen and Hami. (You wankers wouldn`t read it, but fyi,these information might be in the quiz)

Beijing H3 Full Moon#183: Zombie Hashocalypse
Beijing H3 Full Moon Hash is back, with a brand-new pandemic in tow! Unlike other horrible runs planned by shitty hares, this FMH will be a true hashocalypse; you’ll try to outrun (or outwalk) a serious infection rampaging through hashers.
So many of our beloved hashers have already fallen ill to a new disease, which, according to The Institute of Pathology and Hashochemistry, causes symptoms such as uncontrollable whining and complaining, increased participation in so called “Dry” months, and in some cases, severe diarrhoea.
Photo of the vaccine, courtesy of IPH labs.
Luckily, the fine researchers at the IPH have already found a cure, a healthy yeast-fermented malt beverage flavoured with hops, doses of which will be administered to infected hashers this Friday.
But the path towards healing is a treacherous one, and so many brave hashers will risk their sanity and face the infected head on.
Runners will try to deliver the healing potions in time, facing harder than usual open checks; if as a runner you go down the wrong way once, hoards of zombies will cum on your face (that’s how the disease spreads, in case you didn’t know) making you incapable of solving any more open checks for the rest of the leg.
In the meantime, walking hashers are split into two groups indistinguishable from each other: zombies and regular walkers. You won’t know who to trust, who’s a zombie and who’s a hasher, while both try to leave their stickers on you. The team that successfully leaves the most stickers on the opposing team members wins.
We know that anything slightly different than the thousand hashes you’ve been to confuses your brain, so the rules will be explained again during chalk talk.
Dresscode:
Can’t be arsed: Zombies are not known for their bold fashion choices. Wear what you’ve been wearing for the last hash century, like any good zombie would.
Theme-lovers: Zombies! Torn clothing, makeup, fake wounds!
Hares:
Nail Me Jesus, Lost in Sex
What; A-to-A hash (bag drop at paddy’s), and is not dog-friendly as well as not kid-friendly.
When: Friday, 17th of February.
Hash starts at 7:00 pm.
Where: Paddy O’shea’s (Dongzhimen Outer Street Branch)
D`rection to paddy`s:
Hash cash: 30 RMB covers water and beer on trail and circle.
Restaurant: on Paddy’s!
As usual, this is an adult activity in which we behave like children so expect to see nonsense, licentiousness, a modest level of drunkenness and considerable rude behaviour going on. And partial nudity. Don’t be offended; it’s jocular, we’re always like that and if you’re here you’re doing it too. For all of those reasons this isn’t a kid-friendly activity so – unless you’re table 1 – best stay home. More regular members of society are of course very welcome and can of course take part, but please be polite, be tolerant, don’t be purposefully rude and remember that if you’re running there’s no winner.

Beijing H3 #2078: Recycling Hash
Recycling, as defined by the Hashional Agency of Beervironmental Protection, is the collection and processing of hash marks that would otherwise be discarded, and turning them into new shitty trails. It is an alternative to "conventional" trail marking techniques that can save hares’ time and reduce the consumption of chalk. It can also prevent the waste of potentially useful photo [...]

BJHHH #2076, the “Is It Hashmas Yet?” Run
This weekend wants to be a return to a degree of predictability and normality. We can (probably) come and go with less grief than recently, the essentials of life are opening doors again and even travellers from outside Beijing, if such a place exists, can be accepted as apparently safe. And, this evening it’s Hashmas! But, before that, we need [...]
The Advent of (not) Hashmas – Run #2075
It's finally (not) upon us. No, not the end of Covid19, not the opening of schools, not even the opening of our hash bar (soon hopefully). We're talking about Hashmas! [At the time of writing we're envisioning the event will go ahead as planned, albeit on a small scale] {It will also be delayed so stay tuned}. But before all [...]

There’s a feeling of lots of unexpected surprise and delight going on right now, what with all the uncertainties of working at home, playing online, random requirements for testing, the ludicrous and exploitative World Cup, no bars, club Liangma freezing its ass off and a nash-hash bag o’goodies full of other distractions. As we know as (as we know) the [...]

BJH3 #2074 Plan 69 From Outer Space

While there might not be oxygen, vegetation or anything else to support habitable life, there will be frosty beer and plenty [...]
