This multi-party strategic cooperation was finally reached in the form of electronic agreement.
Singapore Done the fund management organ CEO, the chief executive of CTC, Daniel Smith, for six side chain fixed anchor (Vienna, Austria, Lima, Peru, Havana, Cuba, Mexico City, Warsaw, Poland, Venice, Italy), the characteristics of human geography environment and beautiful landscape, said after the outbreak must personally go to feel the unique local customs. It is reported that six new side chain operation centers are set up in the business centers of six cities, and reached strategic consensus with the famous local travel companies.
Vienna, on the Danube river in northeastern Austria, is known as the “capital of music” in the world. Stopping on this city street full of musical notes is always a romantic scene, which makes people easily fall in love unawares, just like the nature of romance in Vienna. Most of Vienna’s tourist attractions are open all year round, such as The Schonbrunn Palace, hofburg Palace, Belfort Palace and the Vienna Museum, of which the Schonbrunn Palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Lima is the capital of Peru and the largest economic and cultural center in the country. It is located on the coastal irrigation oasis. In Lima is always most of the colonial period, South America is the most important political and commercial centers of power, therefore retained a large number of colonial buildings, such as large monasteries catacombs Francis, the central plaza, SAN street plaza and the buildings also earned Lima, scientific and cultural organization UNESCO awarded the “world cultural heritage” of reputation.
Located on the northwest coast of The Island of Cuba, Havana is the capital of the Republic of Cuba. It is located in the tropics, with a mild climate and pleasant seasons. It is known as the “Pearl of the Caribbean”, with many ancient churches, castles, squares, museums, monuments, parks, libraries and so on. The port city of distinctive and lasting appeal, classical and modern, the new world and old world, white and black, high culture and the lowbrow, all elements full of collision, there are telltale signs here, all seemingly independent individuals, together in the sunshine and the vibrant tropical port harmonious unify.
Mexico City is not only the capital of Mexico, but also the largest city in Mexico. Architectural buildings, historical sites, museums, palaces, monuments, shopping malls, government buildings, everything in Mexico City. The water garden on the Hochmirco Canal is the city’s largest tourist attraction, as well as landmark buildings such as the El Angel Daily Independent newspaper and the Angel of Independence Victory Column. Mexico City is the headquarters of many large media companies and Spanish newspapers. About 20% of the Mexican population lives in Mexico City, so this city is also known as the city that never sleeps.
Warsaw is the capital of the Republic of Poland, and the famous Warsaw Convention was signed here. Today, Warsaw still maintains the layout of the old and new cities. Various historical monuments and places of interest are mostly concentrated in the old city, attracting a large number of tourists from abroad every year. The Old Town is located on the west bank of the Vistula River. It is a cluster of majestic and majestic red spire buildings in the Middle Ages. The famous ancient buildings include the former Royal Palace known as the “Polish National Cultural Monument” and the most beautiful and magnificent Baroque building in Warsaw. Base Palace, Lazienki Palace, an outstanding representative of Polish classical architecture, etc.
Venice is the capital of the Veneto region in northern Italy, a world-famous historical and cultural city, and the birthplace of the Venetian school of painting. Its architecture, paintings, sculptures, operas, etc. have an extremely important position and influence in the world. The water city of Venice is the essence of the Renaissance, and it is also the only city in the world without cars. God shed tears here, but made it more crystal clear and tender, just like a romantic dream floating on the blue waves, enjoying “because of water There is the reputation of life, beautiful because of water, and prosperity because of water, and the reputation of “water city”.
In the context of the global epidemic situation is not optimistic and the economy is complex and changeable, the tourism industry is still an industry with stable market demand and a good development momentum in recent years. It has exceeded the global economic average growth rate for 7 consecutive years and has become the fastest growing industry one. With the integration of the global tourism industry and digitalization, the future will gradually achieve leapfrog development, bringing new horizons to the holiday economy and new development opportunities for the digital cultural tourism industry.
The so-called hero sees the same. The heads of CTC and the six new side chains agreed that the future development trend of the cultural and tourism industry will be to integrate blockchain technology into it, which is the need for the in-depth development of the integration of culture and tourism in the new economic environment. By building a new industrial ecological application system through blockchain technology, the cultural tourism industry will accelerate the circulation of assets, empower the growth of the digital economy, and promote the sustainable development of the cultural tourism industry’s digitization, capitalization, and ecologicalization.

Design as a Long-Term Capability: How Geekvape and Geek Bar Drive Systematic Innovation in the Global Design Ecosystem
China, 4th Feb 2026 – In 2025, Geekvape and Geek Bar achieved a major breakthrough on the global design stage, driven by years of deep investment in design capability and systematic innovation. Together, the two brands won a total of 14 internationally recognized design awards—with Geekvape receiving 10 awards and Geek Bar securing 4—spanning top-tier global design systems such as the German iF Design Award, Red Dot Award, as well as the MUSE Design Awards, International Design Awards (IDA), European Product Design Award, and the Paris Design Awards.
This was not a coincidental “harvest of awards,” but rather the result of long-term design methodologies, organizational capabilities, and systematic user research working in concert.
Multi-System Recognition in Design Awards”
Multi-System Recognition as Proof of Design Leadership
Design awards have long served as an important external benchmark of brand design capability. Within the industry, most brands’ design honors tend to be concentrated within a single award system—such as the MUSE Awards or the German Red Dot Awards. Brands that achieve recognition simultaneously across multiple design evaluation systems in the United States, Europe, and France remain rare.
Among the award-winning products:
Geekvape Aegis legend 5 received the European Product Design Award – Honorable Mention, seamlessly combining a powerful exterior with professional-grade durability, setting a benchmark for high-end functional product design.
Warning Statement：This product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical.

Warning Statement：This product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical.
Recognition across multiple design systems signifies that these products are not merely visually appealing, but achieve a mature and stable balance among functionality, user experience, aesthetics, and manufacturability. This is the fundamental reason why Geekvape and Geek Bar continue to earn recognition from international design institutions.
Where Design Leadership Comes From:
High Investment, Early Integration, and User-Centered Design Systems
Within Geekvape and Geek Bar, design is not a downstream decoration added after product development—it is a core driving force embedded throughout the entire process. From the very first day of project initiation, design thinking is deeply involved, defining not only how a product looks, but how it should be experienced.
In the early stages of product planning, design teams invest substantial time and resources in refining creative direction and design language, continuously studying and benchmarking international design trends, and systematically deconstructing real user needs and usage scenarios.
This early-stage, high-investment approach ensures that products are thoroughly refined in terms of experience and aesthetics before entering engineering and mass production—rather than relying on late-stage “patch fixes.”
Above: brainstorming sessions within the design team.
Inside the Design Department:
A Systematic, User-Experience–Centered Workflow
In practice, the work of the design department is not driven by isolated bursts of inspiration, but by a highly structured, end-to-end process centered on user experience.
1. Forward Collaboration: Extracting Real Needs from Market Noise
Design begins with systematic information input and goal alignment.
At the start of each project, the design team conducts desktop research to analyze industry trends, competitor strategies, and evolving user behaviors, establishing an initial design framework. At the same time, they proactively collaborate with product, marketing, and sales teams to integrate diverse perspectives on user needs and business objectives.
The team also regularly conducts on-site market observations and user interviews to capture authentic usage scenarios and latent pain points. For example, during the design of Geek Bar Pulse X, the team identified strong user demand for visible e-liquid and battery indicators, as well as differentiated flavor experiences. This insight led to the creation of the world’s first vaping device featuring a 3D curved display, inspired by a “cosmic aesthetics” visual motif. Through dynamic visual interaction and selectable flavor modes, device status and inhalation feedback are transformed into intuitive visual language—making each use perceptible and shareable.
2. Creative Exploration and Solution Validation: Finding Optimal Answers Within Constraints
Once design objectives, engineering conditions, and cost boundaries are clarified, the design enters a systematic creative exploration phase.
This stage typically begins with extensive sketching and mood board exploration to quickly define design language and overall character, followed by iterative cycles of “design–validation–optimization.”
Taking Legend 5 as an example, its ID design went through three major iterations before finalization:
Version 1 established the modern rugged design direction, innovative screen interaction, and fundamental form through more than ten sketches and five rounds of modeling.
Version 2, refined through three additional modeling rounds, optimized component proportions and cross-sections for improved grip, refined top and bottom structures, and introduced metal inlays as visual highlights.
Version 3 focused on detailed elements such as the silicone plug, ALOCK switch, and bottom push button, ensuring overall coherence, layering, and refinement.
For CMF design, the team reviewed the evolutionary strengths and weaknesses of the Legend series and drew inspiration from cross-industry icons such as the iconic rugged automotive designs. Anchored in the brand’s positioning, they defined a design strategy centered on “Born Legendary, Pioneer Exploration, Limitless Rise.” Through multiple rounds of directional exploration, prototyping, and process testing, the final solution incorporated tri-material leather panels, multi-layer laser-engraved aluminum alloy, ALOCK mechanisms, and CNC pyramid textures—creating a rugged device with both depth and sophistication.
Above: design sketches for Legend 5.
Rapid validation is achieved through 3D-printed prototypes within 48 hours to test ergonomics, proportions, and functionality. Once a direction is confirmed, high-fidelity appearance prototypes are produced to precisely evaluate volume, lines, light, shadow, and materials—providing a solid foundation for engineering and supply chain alignment.
Above: comparisons and iterations of 3D-printed prototypes.
3. Backward Collaboration: Bringing Design to Life with R&D and Manufacturing
Once a design direction is finalized, the focus shifts to deep collaboration with R&D, structural engineering, and the supply chain.
Design teams provide clear CMF standards and physical color samples, working closely with suppliers to finalize samples. For instance, achieving the ideal transition between matte leather and polished metal on Wenax Q 2 required more than ten rounds of sampling. For complex surfaces or special structures, the team repeatedly validates mold feasibility and mass-production readiness with engineers, adjusting details down to 0.1 mm to strike the optimal balance between aesthetics, experience, and efficiency.
By integrating the technological sheen of pearlescent films, the warmth of leather, and the precision of metal edging, a clear material hierarchy is established: film for visual impact, leather for tactile comfort, and metal for stability—creating a restrained yet premium overall aesthetic.
Above: Wenax Q 2 sampling visuals.
4. Product Launch Is Not the End, but the Start of the Next Design Cycle
A complete user feedback loop has been established. After each product launch, design teams systematically collect real-world feedback through sales channels, social media, and user communities. These first-hand insights not only drive rapid optimization of current products, but also serve as core inputs for next-generation innovation—exemplified by the evolution from Legend 3 to Legend 5.
After Legend 3 entered real-world use, user interviews, after-sales data, and cross-team reviews revealed opportunities for further refinement. While widely praised for durability and bold design, some users expressed needs for more intuitive physical controls when outdoors or wearing gloves, improved grip stability and hand comfort during prolonged use, and enhanced readability and visual hierarchy in bright or complex environments.
Rather than treating these as isolated issues, the design team re-evaluated ergonomics, structure, and interaction holistically. In Legend 5, these insights were systematically translated into concrete improvements: subtle refinements to grip curves and structural transitions balanced hand pressure; button placement and tactile feedback were recalibrated for reliable operation across environments; and interface contrast and hierarchy were enhanced while maintaining a professional, restrained visual language. Crucially, these upgrades were validated through multiple rounds of prototyping and real-use testing, ensuring that existing users could intuitively feel the improvements with minimal learning cost.
The evolution from Legend 3 to Legend 5 embodies Geekvape’s consistent design philosophy:listen to users, analyze systematically, and optimize cautiously—changing only what truly enhances the experience. This feedback-driven, long-term approach allows products to grow alongside users, rather than being replaced through superficial iteration.
Design as Long-Termism
The multiple international design awards received in 2025 represent a milestone rather than a finish line. For Geekvape and Geek Bar, design is not a short-term competitive tactic, but a long-term capability requiring sustained investment and continuous validation. Looking ahead, both brands will continue to place user experience at the core, exploring within the global design context and driving the ongoing evolution of product innovation and industry aesthetics.
