At 3:30 pm, a convoy carrying "Sihai" and "Beijing" slowly drove out of the Ya'an base, headed to Chengdu Shuangliu Airport , and took a special plane to Qatar. To accompany and help giant pandas adapt to the new environment, the Panda Center sent experienced breeders and veterinary experts to randomly visit. "We prepared steamed buns, bamboo shoots, carrots and other foods for the giant pandas to ensure their journey needs." said Dong Li, a breeder.

In order to ensure that the two giant pandas successfully start a new life in Qatar, both China and Qatar have made full preparations. More than a month ago, the Panda Center implemented quarantine and physical examinations on two giant pandas, and their health was in good condition. China has also sent expert teams to Qatar on many occasions for on-site guidance and on-site evaluation of the venues, assisting the Qatar in forming a professional giant panda breeding and management team, and completing the supply of staple food bamboo. In order to welcome the arrival of the "Four Seas" and "Beijing", the Qatar government carefully built the giant panda hall. The venue is fully functional, and the two giant pandas will have an air-conditioned sports field, an indoor exhibition hall, and an independent "bedroom". In addition, in order to ensure the breeding, food supply and medical safety of giant pandas, there are also nursery rooms, treatment rooms, food preparation rooms, bamboo fresh storage rooms, safety monitoring rooms, etc.
