Mobile phones without internet or electricity can also open subway gates, and digital RMB tax payment can be applied in all scenarios. Access control, consumption, and salary distribution in industrial parks can be handled with a digital RMB hard wallet with one card... Recently, reporters interviewed and researched in the first batch of digital RMB pilot cities in Suzhou, and learned that the pace of expanding the application scenarios and upgrading the user experience of digital RMB is constantly accelerating. Data shows that the pilot scope of digital RMB has been expanded to 26 pilot areas in 17 provinces and cities, showing many highlights and potential in terms of benefiting enterprises and the people. "Before, every time I took the subway, I had to start looking for the ride code in advance. Since I got a digital RMB SIM card hard wallet, I can pay with just a touch of my phone." At Qihe Station on Suzhou Metro Line 2, passenger Yuan Jing gently leaned her black screen phone against the gate, and the subway gate was opened, making the entire process of entering the station very "slippery". Wu Chao, Deputy General Manager of the Clearing and Ticketing Department of Suzhou Rail Transit Operation Co., Ltd., told reporters that for the first time in China, Suzhou Rail Transit has achieved the application scenario of using intelligent locking to directly enter and exit subway gates through a digital RMB SIM card hard wallet in a state of no network or electricity. "Users who have opened a digital RMB SIM card hard wallet can still enter and exit the gate normally when their phone is locked or turned off," he said. While continuously improving convenience, digital RMB is also making efforts to benefit enterprises. The reporter saw at the Government Service Hall in Xiangcheng District, Suzhou that the digital RMB tax payment guidance video playing on the large screen is attracting many people to watch. It is understood that the Xiangcheng District Taxation Bureau has implemented the application of digital RMB tax payment in all types, scenarios, and venues. "Our company has been using digital RMB for tax payment since January 2023. This was the most surprising measure for me in handling tax related business that year." Rui Jieqiong, an accountant at Suzhou High Speed Rail New City Innovation and Entrepreneurship Investment Co., Ltd., introduced to reporters while using digital RMB to complete the company's tax payment for the fourth quarter of 2023. She admitted that due to the frequent use of digital RMB in daily business operations, when both the daily business account and tax payment account are merged into the digital RMB account, there is no need to "flip back and forth between the two accounts", making work much more convenient. "We have been exploring how to use digital RMB for tax payment since 2020. Digital RMB has advantages such as real-time receipt and low transaction fees, and can be used as a new type of tax payment method to meet the diversified tax payment needs of enterprises and individuals." Chen Zhong, Secretary of the Party Committee and Director of the Xiangcheng District Taxation Bureau of the State Administration of Taxation in Suzhou, introduced that as of the end of 2023, nearly 20000 taxpayers and payers have used digital RMB for tax payment of nearly 20 billion yuan. In addition to tax payment, the comprehensive application of digital RMB and related financial services have also brought obvious convenience and benefits to enterprises. At the Huangqiao Future Factory Digital RMB Pilot Demonstration Industrial Park, the digital RMB consumption closed-loop scene integrating park management, supporting services, and employee consumption is eye-catching. Feng Xiaoming, Director of the Digital Finance Industry Development Center in Xiangcheng District, told reporters that the distribution of digital RMB hard wallets has achieved full coverage within the park
