Dear Shenzhen-er, 

Hainan has surpassed 7500 cases and a total of 17 provinical-level regions broke the 2000 daily case mark as of Sunday. Silver lining to this latest wave is the situation here in Shenzhen is stabelizing (there was only 1 reported case yesterday). Hope those of you that made your way down to Sanya have managed to get back to Shenzhen :). Unrelenting heat continues to be an issue country-wide, Jiangsu issued a warning that surface temperatures could exceed 72°C / 161°F yesterday (eggs cook at 70°C / 158°F) according to this article. Rain may have been a bummer this past week but perhaps a small blessing in disguise as well. Lastly, I selected an article on a local initiative to make our city a pivotal player in the fuel cell technology for those of you interested in hydrogen powered cars.

A big thanks to those of you that literally weathered the storm to join us for our Amazon meeting this past Wednesday at Mambo. Michael delivered exceptional value in the 20 minutes or so he spent on stage sharing his experience with Excaliber Brothers. We'll be supporting our friends at After Math Parties at their Camping Music Festival this weekend and are prepping for our 2nd community event (hint: it will involve our furry friends) towards the end of this month. As always please visit our full event page for all the up and coming events in town!  

Note to fellow dog owners: it's hot out there and blazing hot concrete can hurt your pups paws. When in doubt, test the temperature of the ground by placing the back of your hand on it, if it hurts your hand it will hurt their paws. 🐶
