Maoming CDC experts answer hot issues of AIDS prevention and control →

What disease is AIDS?

What behaviors are at risk of contracting AIDS?

Can high-risk behaviors be remedied?

How to prevent AIDS transmission …

Deng Xinyan, head of the AIDS Prevention and Control Department of Maoming CDC, took the opportunity of the series of publicity activities of World AIDS Day in 2023 to answer questions on the hot issues of AIDS prevention and control that the public is more concerned about.

Three ways of transmission should be known.

Don’t be afraid of daily contact.

Deng Xinyan introduced that AIDS is a systemic disease caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, which will lead to progressive immune dysfunction. At present, there are three ways of transmission of AIDS, namely blood transmission, sexual transmission and mother-to-child transmission.

The main route of transmission is sexual transmission. If you have unprotected sex with people who don’t know the HIV infection status, you may get infected, especially unprotected homosexual sex between men, and the risk of infection will be higher. Blood transmission is the most direct route of infection, and it is very dangerous to import blood contaminated by virus, use intravenous drugs contaminated by blood without strict disinfection and share syringes. In addition, pregnant women infected with HIV may also spread to the fetus if they do not accept standardized mother-to-child blocking.

Generally speaking, the high-risk behaviors of HIV infection in life include unsafe sex, sharing needles, importing blood or blood products without anti-HIV antibody detection, and occupational exposure history. In addition, daily contact, respiratory droplets and water will not cause the spread of HIV, such as sharing school supplies, eating together, sharing toilets, shaking hands, hugging, etc., AIDS patients or infected people cough or sneeze, and generally will not spread AIDS; Mosquito bites will not spread AIDS in summer. You don’t have to be overly "afraid of AIDS", and you should correctly understand AIDS with a scientific and rational attitude.

After high-risk behavior

Knowing "self-help" is very important.

Deng Xinyan suggested that in life, once a high-risk behavior that may be infected with AIDS occurs, you should immediately go to the local disease prevention and control institutions, medical institutions and testing points for testing and consultation together with those who have high-risk behaviors. Individuals can also buy self-testing reagents for testing. If the test is positive, they should go to medical institutions and CDC in time for further confirmatory testing. Testing is the only way to know whether you are infected with AIDS.

It should be noted that it generally takes 2 to 12 weeks for a human body to produce a sufficient number of antibodies after being infected with HIV before it can be detected by clinical test methods. The period from HIV infection to the detection of HIV antibodies in blood is called "window period". The "window period" is usually half a month to three months, and a few people can reach six months. If the HIV antibody is tested in the "window period", even if there is HIV in the blood and it can spread to others, the test result is still negative. Therefore, during the "window period", what we can do is to calm our minds and stop high-risk behaviors.

"Some people get scared after having high-risk sex. But please don’t be too flustered first. After the exposure of AIDS, it can be prevented and remedied. " Deng Xinyan said that at present, taking post-exposure drug prevention has become one of the important means of AIDS prevention. Post-exposure drug prevention refers to people who have not been infected with HIV. Under the guidance of a doctor, they should use blocking drugs as soon as possible within 1 to 2 hours (or earlier) after exposure, and take them for 28 days at the latest within 72 hours after exposure, which can effectively reduce the risk of HIV infection, and the drug use effect is the best within 2 hours. At present, Maoming Chronic Disease Prevention Center and Dianbai District People’s Hospital can provide post-exposure preventive services.

Do a good job of self-protection

Is the most effective means of prevention

At present, according to Maoming’s AIDS surveillance data, the overall AIDS epidemic in our city remains at a low epidemic level, and the mode of transmission is mainly sexual transmission, which increases the risk of general population involvement. Among the newly reported cases this year, sexual transmission accounted for 95.5%, of which heterosexual transmission accounted for 89.7% and homosexual transmission accounted for 5.8%; The majority of cases are in the senior age group, and the proportion of newly reported cases in the age group over 50 years is basically between 57% and 72% in recent five years. The case was found late and the death rate was high.

"The people who need to focus on prevention and control in our city are concentrated in the elderly and adolescents, mainly due to poor awareness of self-protection, resulting in a high proportion of infections. At the same time, most infected people were diagnosed after entering the AIDS period and missed the best treatment opportunity. " Deng Xinyan said that the difficulty of AIDS prevention and treatment lies in the difficulty of incurability and control. At present, no drugs have been developed to cure AIDS, and there is no effective vaccine to prevent AIDS. Under the current medical level, patients or infected people must take drugs for life. Therefore, it is particularly important to master the knowledge of AIDS prevention.

At present, our city actively promotes the publicity and education work of AIDS prevention and control "into the community, into the enterprise, into the hospital, into the campus and into the family". From January to November this year, Maoming CDC went into 17 towns (streets) in various districts (county-level cities) and went to many enterprises, universities and vocational schools to carry out AIDS publicity and education activities. Up to now, more than 80 AIDS "Five Enters" publicity activities have been carried out, covering more than 50,000 people.

In December, taking the 2023 "World AIDS Day" series of publicity activities as an opportunity, Maoming CDC successively carried out publicity activities to eliminate AIDS free clinics, "promoting buses to enter the campus and the community", intervention activities for men who have sex with men, "World AIDS Day" and related knowledge publicity. Through the development and promotion of activities, the public’s awareness of AIDS prevention and control has been significantly improved, and good results have been achieved, which has played a positive role in the in-depth development of AIDS prevention and control work in our city.

Liqun shares: the road to evergreen of a century-old brand

  Since 1933, Liqun brand has been deposited in Shandong Province for nearly 90 years.

  Compared with modern shopping centers such as () and Vientiane City, which represent the young trend, "Liqun" is more like an "old brand" specializing in department stores and home appliance supermarkets in the impression of local people. However, it is this old brand that stands firm in the shopping mall. As an evergreen tree in Shandong’s commercial field, it continues to grow and flourish.

  Reconstruct traditional commercial elements and launch "quasi-shopping center"

  Compared with the business format of shopping centers, "department stores and supermarkets add appliances" is the "three axes" of Liqun’s traditional offline business format, which has made a good record for improving the territory. Facing the change of modern consumption concept and the diversified impact of shopping centers, Liqun chose its own development road-"quasi-shopping centers".

  Once upon a time, "department store-shopping center" became a fixed upgrading model of the industry. Some people think that the biggest difference between shopping centers and department stores is the difference in thinking. The former is flow thinking and demand orientation, while the latter is sales thinking and performance orientation. "The shopping center is a market, and the department store is a business". The most essential difference between shopping centers and department stores is the separation of place management and retail management. The advantages of shopping centers lie in their large area, various formats and complete types of goods, but there are also disadvantages such as large investment, low rate of return, lack of brand resources and difficulty in realizing traffic.

  Is there only one way for traditional department stores to upgrade to shopping centers? () gives a negative answer. The company’s concept of "quasi-shopping center" focuses on the organic combination of the two advantages: Liqun’s superior business layout of traditional "department stores, supermarkets and electrical appliances", plus various business elements such as shopping center catering, cinemas and entertainment, so that emerging, young and distinctive brands can find the display position closest to consumers, and Liqun can also meet consumers’ consumption needs with more diversified goods and services, and improve its own business performance.

  The concept of "shopping+eating, drinking and having fun" is perfectly reflected in Jinding Square on the west coast of Liqun in Huangdao District, Qingdao: here, customers can buy inexpensive necessities such as people’s livelihood and home, high-quality and fidelity jewelry, gold ornaments and cosmetics of well-known brands, fashionable household appliances and clothing, and enjoy delicious meals and drinks, reading, watching movies, equestrian skating and so on after shopping. In the future, Liqun will continue to upgrade on this basis to create a unique shopping style belonging to Liqun.

  Stick to the essence of retail and open up digital operation

  Someone said, "The sadness of China Department Store is that when the market share is not big enough, it meets e-commerce. The business model has not yet begun to change, and it has met the shopping center. "

  The impact of e-commerce on physical retail seems to be an indisputable fact. According to the data of the top 100 chain enterprises in China, the sales of the top 100 chain enterprises accounted for 9.3% of the total retail sales of social consumer goods in 2012, which was lower than the level of 11% in 2011. This is the first time that the proportion has decreased since 2003, and it also proves that the traditional retail industry is constantly being squeezed by e-commerce.

  Since then, many physical retail enterprises have begun to practice hard and pursue transformation in various ways, and have spawned various new concepts and models, such as new entities, new consumption and new retail.

  As early as 2004, Liqun began to set foot in the emerging format of e-commerce, set up an e-commerce company, opened Liqun. com and started to build a PC. After the rise of mobile e-commerce, the company began to develop O2O services. In August 2017, Liqun’s online procurement platform was launched, serving the bulk procurement of enterprises, institutions, restaurants, convenience stores and other front-end channels, which indicates that Liqun’s O2O and B2B business models have achieved certain results. In 2018, Liqun started the intelligent and digital reconstruction of the supply chain, used new technical means to improve operational efficiency and reduce operating costs, and built a smart supply chain information management platform, which was successfully launched in 2021, providing an effective guarantee for Liqun to realize the standardization, standardization and simplification of business operations. Today, the "Liqun Online Merchant" APP has moved more than 1 million items operated by nearly 100 shopping malls and supermarkets online. (1) It is deeply integrated, sharing inventory at the same price, and customers can stay at home and visit Liqun. With its smart logistics system, it can deliver goods to consumers efficiently, safely and quickly.

  Liqun shares believe that cultivating consumers’ habits is the core work of the retail industry. Whether it is live broadcast with goods or new formats such as community group buying, it is essentially a change in habits brought about by technology to better cater to and even create the needs of consumers. The company will adhere to this core theory, work hard and quietly in its own main business field, and provide the most comfortable service to consumers with the concept of "high quality and low price, complete categories", "saving every penny for you" and the spirit of "doing with heart and never being satisfied".

  Deeply ploughing retail is the foundation, and perfecting supply chain is the guidance.

  Liqun shares describe its business model as a supply chain integrated enterprise that adheres to the principle of "whole industry chain+self-management". The company is committed to building a four-in-one retail and platform operator of "source batch direct mining+brand agent operation+warehousing and logistics distribution+self-operated terminal retail (e-commerce)".

  There is a saying that "one minute on the stage, ten years off the stage". The retail industry has a wide range of categories, and it is an industry that needs to be "finely crafted". There is no shortcut, and only the continuous refinement and innovation of the supply chain system is the "king". Liqun adopts the integrated operation mode of "whole industry chain+self-operation", focusing on source procurement and brand wholesale operation companies, and fully controls the whole supply chain link of "purchase, sale, adjustment and storage", thus making Liqun an industry leader in commodity selection, circulation and inventory control.

  Today’s Liqun, in the field of brand wholesale operation, the source procurement channels of goods are all over the country. Fuxingxiang Logistics Group, a subsidiary of Fuxingxiang Logistics Group, has more than 30 brand agents and wholesale operation companies, all of which are mainly operated by buyout and self-operation, and are equipped with professional buyers and operation and maintenance teams, covering all categories of commodities such as grain and oil, drinks, supermarkets, household appliances, clothing, shoes and hats, baby products, sports, cosmetics and jewelry, forming a diversified and professional brand agent echelon. Operating more than 4,000 brands, with channels and channel agency rights of more than 500 well-known brands; We have established a stable cooperative relationship with nearly 3,000 upstream suppliers, and the proportion of supermarkets and home appliances is 95%.

  In terms of terminal distribution capacity, Liqun’s brand export operation has continued to expand, and its market share has continued to increase. The sales share of some brand operating companies’ non-Liqun systems has exceeded Liqun’s internal distribution, and external customers involve other commercial enterprises, large farmers’ markets, convenience stores, enterprises and institutions, schools and military units, showing strong anti-risk ability.

  At the same time of channel operation, Liqun has continuously consolidated the construction of supply chain hardware facilities in recent years, and successively invested 5 billion to build more than 500,000 square meters of Fuxingxiang Logistics two large-scale smart warehousing and logistics centers in Huai ‘an, Jiangsu and Licha, Jiaozhou, enabling Liqun to expand rapidly around 300 kilometers with the support of the two major logistics bases in the north and south. Among them, JIAOZHOU Smart Logistics and Supply Chain Base is the first commercial supply chain base in China to build an automatic unmanned operation system of "automatic warehouse building+circular shuttle car +3D vision reading, disassembling and stacking robot", with a dynamic inventory of about 3 billion yuan. Liqun’s central kitchen can provide more than a thousand kinds of processed products, such as Chinese and Western pastry, hot halogen products, aquatic products, box lunch, prefabricated vegetables, etc., with a daily designed output of more than 80 tons and an annual designed output value of 500 million yuan; Bean products factory is the largest and most modernized new bean products processing factory in Shandong province with single format. It designs and puts into production 40 tons of dried beans and produces more than 60 kinds of bean products in a single day, and the bean sprouts factory designs and produces 30 tons of bean sprouts in a single day. Healthy baking brand "Maiguqianqian", bean product brand "Fuxing Tofu" designated by Shanghe Summit in 2018, and natural rice brand "Gurenzhuang" with "farm food and native flavor".

  On the one hand, the supply side constantly innovates the supply of goods to reduce costs and increase efficiency. On the other hand, the continuous innovation on the sales side can improve the quality of service and marketing and enhance the customer experience. From Liqun, an old brand, we can’t help thinking: Perhaps, throwing away the routine, discarding the false and retaining the true, returning to the essence of the retail industry, and impressing consumers with "more, faster, better and more economical" is the way for commercial enterprises to last forever.

Just now! Vanke responds to everything

China fund newspaper

China fund newspaper Taylor

Just now, Vanke issued an announcement to respond to many recent incidents.

On the afternoon of April 14th, Vanke held an offline investor meeting, accepted institutional research, and many well-known brokers participated. Yu Liang, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Vanke, and Zhu Jiusheng, President of Vanke, were responsible for the reception and exchanged views with investors on some hot issues.

Taylor sorted out some of the main points.

1. Operation of Vanke

At present, Vanke has indeed encountered phased operational difficulties, and its liquidity is under pressure in the short term. However, a package of stable operation and debt reduction plans has been formulated, which can properly resolve these stage pressures.

Vanke said that it will make full use of all kinds of existing financing tools and actively mobilize all front-line forces to make good use of a series of policy financing tools issued by the central government that are conducive to the industry to resolve risks. I am confident that the debt scale of Vanke will drop by 100 billion yuan this year and next, and the debt risk will be substantially resolved. Vanke solemnly promises that all projects of Vanke Group will be delivered on time and with high quality.

2. What caused the current challenge?

Vanke said that there are three reasons.

First, although Vanke was the first in the industry to realize the need for transformation and development, there are problems of taking too big steps and rushing in the actual operation process. The transformation business exceeds the matching ability of resources, takes up too much development business funds, and the scale is too large to keep up with the management ability, and the business objectives cannot be achieved as planned.

Second, we have failed to resolutely get rid of the inertia of the industry. In many cities, including some key cities and first-tier cities, there have been rash investments and mistakes. After the central government clearly put forward the high-quality development goals and requirements of the industry, it failed to make a more thorough adjustment to the "three highs" model prevalent in the industry, resulting in a passive situation today.

Third, the understanding of the trend change of financing mode was not comprehensive enough at first. The group has started the adjustment of real estate financing mode, but it still needs a process to change from total credit financing to new financing mode.

3. Respond to the market’s doubts about the management’s self-interest.

In the recent negative public opinion, there are some doubts about the moral hazard of management.

Vanke said that there is no management seeking personal gain. Today, it seems that some past models and practices have not adapted to the new development stage of the industry, and will be comprehensively reviewed and sorted out to formulate corresponding strategies. If violations are found, they will be actively rectified; If illegal problems are found, the group will not tolerate them.

4. Current relationship with shareholders

Vanke said that it has made a detailed report with Shenzhen SASAC and major shareholders. Shenzhen State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and Shenzhen Metro support Vanke as always. During the market adjustment period, the company is fortunate to have the full support and trust of Shenzhen state-owned assets and major shareholders, and is deeply grateful for this, and will cherish the trust and redouble its efforts.

5. Respond to the real name report about Yantai.

Vanke said that the real-name reporting company was mainly a subsidiary of Yantai Riying Group, whose actual controller was Li Jun. Yantai Vanke and its partner Li Jun (hereinafter referred to as "Yantai Partner") have cooperated in developing real estate projects for nearly 10 years and cooperated in 7 projects.

Since 2021, affected by the overall market environment, the sales of many projects in Yantai fell short of expectations, and the profits could not reach the initial feasibility study index. In order to ensure the funds needed for project construction delivery and normal operation, the funds of the project company cannot be distributed according to the wishes of Yantai partners. At the same time, Yantai partners, as shareholders, ignored the needs of the project company’s construction, delivery and normal operation, and put forward a huge demand of 1.6 billion yuan without reasonable basis. Although Yantai Vanke and Yantai partners have communicated many times, they have never reached an agreement. Yantai partners subsequently reported to the government, public security, tax bureau, CSRC, Shenzhen Stock Exchange and other institutions many times, and exposed them in the media many times.

Vanke said that the Yantai informant reported the case of Vanke’s misappropriation of funds to the Yantai public security organ in 2023 and was accepted. After three months of investigation and evidence collection, Yantai Public Security Bureau made a decision not to file a case in November 2023.

In addition, the tax authorities inspected Yantai Vanke, and Vanke did not refuse to pay the accounts. At present, the tax authorities have not determined that Yantai Vanke has the subjective intention to evade taxes.

Vanke also said that there is no private interest of the so-called Vanke management team in the cooperative project. Vanke began to implement the project follow-up plan in 2014. According to the existing system, Vanke’s directors, supervisors and senior management personnel are not allowed to participate in the project follow-up, let alone get any personal benefits from the cooperative project.

Employees and investors are all minority shareholders, and they have equal rights with other shareholders and bear the same shareholder obligations, so there is no particularity.

In April, 2024, Yantai partners slandered the company and the chairman of the board of directors on the Internet, which had a bad nature and influence. Vanke Group is bringing a civil lawsuit to the court and reporting a criminal case to the public security organ.

6. Xiao Jin’s being taken away by the public security organs has nothing to do with Yantai.

Vanke said that Xiao Jin was an individual case and had nothing to do with Yantai’s report. The Group has arranged for the Beijing regional and Jinan companies to communicate with the Jinan Political and Legal Committee and the police investigating the case. The police said that Xiao Jin’s case was his personal case and had nothing to do with Yantai’s report.

Vanke also said that the Jinan Municipal Political and Legal Committee said that the Xiao Jin incident was a personal issue, which should be distinguished from the normal business activities of Vanke Group and Jinan Vanke. As always, it will support Vanke’s business development in Jinan and help the implementation of the strategy of "strengthening the province". In the guarantee delivery work, if the political and legal system services are needed, special personnel will be arranged to coordinate and dock.

7. Are executives controlled by the border?

What is the situation of Cai Ping and Wang Runchuan, the leaders who have not returned from abroad? It is rumored that after Cai Ping, the head of Central China, went to the United States and never returned, all the vice presidents and above of Vanke Group are now under border control.

For Vanke, the actual situation is that Cai Ping, the former chief partner of Central China, was born in the United States, and now he has reached the stage of receiving education and needs family companionship. It resigned in 2023 and obtained the company’s consent.

Wang Runchuan, the former lead partner of the headquarters collaboration center, resigned because he went to Hong Kong for further study. At present, he lives in Shenzhen.

The overseas business trips of the management of the Group are normal. Zhu Jiusheng, president of the group, has just returned from an inspection project in Hong Kong. Baoquan Zhu, co-president of the Group, flew to Japan for business investigation at noon on April 14th.

Recently, Vanke A’s share price has seen a wave of decline, with a large short-term decline. As of April 12, the latest market value was 76.7 billion yuan.

Welcome to read April 14th.

It is rare for Xinjiang to have low temperature and snowfall, and the field has broken through the extreme low temperature for 30 years.

Special topic: All parts of the country are United in fighting snow disasters.






Water pipes are blocked by freezing in Tianshan, water, sand and new urban areas.







Sanitation workers sweep the streets in the cold wind


    Affected by the strong cold air from western Siberia heading south and the trough in Central Asia, from 17th to 27th, there was a large-scale cooling and snowfall in Xinjiang, which was not only unbearable in most parts of northern Xinjiang, but also a rare continuous snowfall in southern Xinjiang, and the temperature continued to drop. Changji suffered the coldest 49 in 37 years, while Hotan broke through the extreme low temperature in 30 years.


    Yesterday (January 27th), Dou Xinying, a senior engineer of Urumqi Meteorological Observatory, said that the lowest temperature in Urumqi was below -20℃ for five consecutive days from 19th to 23rd during the "April 9th" period. Although it did not break through the continuous low temperature of -23℃ to -24℃ from January 19th to 23rd, 1962, it was also a rare continuous low temperature weather in recent 40 years. 


    Changji Prefecture suffered the coldest April 9th in 37 years. According to the data of Changji Meteorological Observatory, up to now, except for the April 9th average temperature in two counties, the April 9th average temperature in Changji Prefecture has been the second lowest since 1971, and the average temperature in other places has reached the lowest historical extreme since 1971. The April 9th average temperature at Caijiahu Meteorological Station in Changji Prefecture is -30.4℃, which is the coldest than the previous April 9th.

Inventory of double 11 Consumer Electronic Battle Report: National subsidies are favorable, and services become the new focus of the platform.

In double 11 in 2024, some platforms started the Double Eleven promotion as early as October 14th, a whole month ahead of schedule, which can be said to be "very forward-looking".

With the end of the first phase, some consumer electronics have released battle reports. Although the battle report that "every family comes first" is always teased, double 11 is indeed a weather vane of the consumer industry. As Lei Technology, which focuses on AI hard technology, what trends have you seen in the consumer electronics industry from these battle reports?

Xiaomi is the first, and the consumption behaviors of different platforms are quite different.

In the field of smart phones that everyone is most concerned about, only Xiaomi announced the sales results of the "first stage" of the Double Eleven. According to the data released by Xiaomi, as of 23:59:59 on November 1, 2024, Xiaomi’s omni-channel cumulative payment amount has exceeded 19.7 billion yuan. Among the three core platforms of Tmall, JD.COM and Pinduoduo,Xiaomi also won the cumulative sales volume of domestic mobile phone brands, the double crown in sales volume (Tmall, Pinduoduo) and the first sales volume of mobile phone brands (JD.COM).

Comparing the difference of single product sales in the three core platforms, it is not difficult to find the "preference" of users on different platforms for mobile phones. For example, the Xiaomi 15 mobile phone, which was also just released, won the first place in the cumulative sales of domestic mobile phones on the Tmall platform.Considering that Apple is the only overseas mobile phone brand that can pose a threat to Xiaomi in China market, Xiaomi 15′ s performance can be said to be excellent.

The situation of JD.COM platform is similar to that of Tmall.However, it is not Xiaomi 15(4000-5999 yuan grade) that has just been released, but the Redmi K70 Extreme Edition (2000-2999 yuan gear) released in July that won the first place in the sales of domestic mobile phones.Of course, Xiaomi 15 also achieved the first cumulative sales in its own price range. As for Pinduoduo, only Xiaomi 14 and Redmi K70 Extreme Edition got the first cumulative sales volume and sales volume in their own price range, and there was nothing wrong with Xiaomi 15.

Image source: Xiaomi

Comparing the three platforms, it is not difficult for us to sum up such a rule:Consumers in Pinduoduo platform are more sensitive to the final preferential strength and the available price, while the buying habits in JD.COM are more "polarized".

AI PC has become the core driving force for PC sales growth.

If Xiaomi "dominates" the mobile phone sales of the three core platforms, Lenovo’s sales in the PC category can also be described as "dominating". Lenovo won 23 titles in the JD.COM 11.11 computer racing rankings.It covers a number of lists, such as the sales of self-operated brands and the sales of Beijing-selected stores, especially in the category of thin and light books and games.

Image source: Lenovo

It is worth noting that there is no classification of AI PC in the sales classification of Tmall or JD.COM. Some people may think that this is because AI PC is not a climate. But in my opinion, this just proves that the concept of AI PC has penetrated into various categories.

Abstracting AI from actual hardware products to virtual software or services, this change makes the function of AI PC no longer constrained by high-performance game books.It has become an ecological function that spans thin and light notebooks, business notebooks, game books, tablet computers, all-in-one machines, and even servers and workstations.

Smart cleaning brands rely on product innovation to "fire fully"

In the field of intelligent cleaning that has risen in recent years, Xunmi Technology has also performed brilliantly in the opening stage of the Double Eleven: according to Xunmi’s data, in the "opening stage" alone, the total sales volume of Xunmi Technology’s core channels of all categories reached 2.1 billion yuan, with a year-on-year growth rate of over 100%, and it won the first place in many platforms such as JD.COM, Tmall, Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker.

As a leading brand in the cleaning electrical appliance industry, the sales performance of Xunyi directly reflects the market demand for intelligent cleaning products, and also shows that technological progress is the best driving force to promote product sales.As far as the development of the industry is concerned, the market of sweeping robots is still in the stage of subversive innovation. Compared with cost and channels, technological leadership plays a decisive role in the competitiveness of enterprises.

Image source: Chasing Technology

Long-term investment in innovative R&D is the most important cornerstone for establishing a "moat" for enterprises. There are many remarkable places in the domestic home service robot industry. At the beginning of its development, it quickly became famous with perfect technology. However, if it wants to build a solid moat permanently, its investment in technological innovation cannot be relaxed.

At present, Xunmi, Cobos and Roborock all have the potential to bring new development direction to the sweeping robot market, which can also be seen from their products launched in the first half of this year.Although it is not a big upgrade at first glance, it is generally developing in a more and more perfect direction. Moreover, there are many innovative functions. If it can be further improved and promoted to the market in the future, Xiaolei believes that more and more consumers will be interested in sweeping robots.

Parents pay the bill and let the intelligent education hardware sell out.

Like smart cleaning, intelligent educational hardware is also a hot item in recent years. As the education counseling industry has shifted from offline to online, intelligent education hardware has also become popular. According to data from JD.COM,Only in the "first stage" of the Double Eleven, the transaction volume of learning machine category increased by over 100% year-on-year, and the transaction volume of electronic education category and electronic paper book category increased by over 50% year-on-year.

In the category of learning hardware, there is definitely a dictionary pen that can’t be bypassed. With excellent product capabilities, Youdao Dictionary Pen has won double first place in JD.COM, Tmall platform industry and single product list.

On the whole, the hot sale of intelligent educational hardware reflects the urgent demand of parents and students for high-quality educational resources, and the progress of technology has also made AI more and more widely used in the field of education.From the perspective of intelligent education, personalized and intelligent learning methods are gradually replacing the traditional education model.It can be predicted that with the support of education policy and the continuous growth of consumer demand,The intelligent education hardware market will maintain rapid development in the future, bringing more innovations and changes to the education industry.

State subsidies are a major feature of this year’s Double Eleven.

Judging from the sales trend of this year’s Double Eleven, "state subsidy" is undoubtedly an important keyword throughout the whole shopping festival.Whether it is AI PC, smart cleaning or intelligent educational equipment, the preferential strength of 20% state subsidies is quite attractive. For the platform, the intervention of state subsidies has made consumers who had a wait-and-see attitude join the shopping army.

For consumers, the introduction of the state subsidy policy has also effectively stimulated the potential consumer demand:The combination of subsidies and preferential activities of e-commerce platforms has formed a superposition effect, further amplifying the attraction of promotion.Take the M4 Mac mini just launched by Apple as an example. Under the dual effects of subsidies and preferential treatment, the Mac mini with an original price of 4,499 yuan has quickly changed from a "unproductive vase" to the "best mini computer for home use", and even sold out of stock for many times in JD.COM.

In contrast, without the promotion of state subsidies, consumers’ willingness to buy will never be so strong. As in 2023, under the joint influence of economic environment and consumer confidence, everyone’s enthusiasm for large-scale promotion activities has weakened.Consumers are more rational and pay attention to actual needs.If we only rely on the promotion efforts of the merchants themselves, it is estimated that it is difficult to open the gap between this year’s Double Eleven and last year’s achievements.

In addition to low prices, consumers pay more and more attention to service.

Service has also become the focus of this year’s double eleven platform competition.Due to the limited space for price concessions, e-commerce brands have also begun to develop competitiveness beyond price.Taking JD.COM as an example, with the excellent warehousing and logistics system in JD.COM, many mobile phone brands have reached cooperation with JD.COM, striving to deliver products to consumers as quickly as possible.

For example, vivo and Glory’s "one step ahead" plan will deliver the mobile phone immediately after its release, and deliver the new machine to the user as soon as the next day; With the support of "second delivery" in JD.COM, Xiaomi 15 mobile phone, which has won the first sales volume in multi-platforms, can be delivered to consumers in the store under Xiaomi Rice Noodle within one hour at the earliest.

In addition to the aging upgrade of distribution, pre-sales and after-sales value-added services such as trade-in and extended warranty services have also become a new battlefield for e-commerce platforms.This trend from price competition to service competition also reflects the maturity of the e-commerce industry and the upgrading of consumer demand.For e-commerce platforms and brands, only by constantly innovating in services can they stand out in the fierce market competition. In the future, the e-commerce platform needs to continue to make efforts to improve the user experience in order to win more market share.

This year’s Double Eleven Shopping Festival is not only an increase in consumption figures, but also a profound change in market structure and consumption concept.Price is no longer the only battlefield, and service, quality and innovation are becoming the new focus of competition.In this consumption transformation, as consumers, we are also the promoters of this e-commerce transformation. And the choices we made during the Double Eleven will also guide the market to develop in the right direction.

India Air Show: The United States and Russia compete for orders and develop their own "loyal wingman" to show their ambitions.

The Indian military research institute exhibited a self-developed full-scale model of the "loyal wingman" stealth drone at this air show, which reflected the ambition of the Indian aviation industry.

On February 3rd, Bangalore Aerospace Exhibition (India Air Show) was held at Yelahanka Air Force Base. Indian Defense Minister Rajnath Singh attended the opening ceremony.

Although the epidemic in India is still raging, the United States and Russia have sent a large lineup of exhibitors for the potential large orders of the Indian Air Force, and they have all produced a variety of advanced fighters. This year’s air show attracted more than 600 exhibitors, including 78 foreign exhibitors. It is worth mentioning that the US bomber B-1B flew from South Dakota for 26 hours and arrived at the air show in Bangalore, India. Accompanied by an LCA fighter of the Indian Air Force, it passed the field at low altitude.

Warrior UAV adopts stealth design, and its shape is very similar to that of American Valkyria and Loyal Wingman.

For huge orders, the United States and Russia showed advanced fighters regardless of the epidemic.

According to the "India Times" reported on February 3, at the opening ceremony of the air show that day, The representative of the United States said at the press conference that Washington suggested that the Indian Air Force purchase American fighters, and the optional models include F-18, F-15 and F-16 (the United States later gave the specific number F-21).

The representative of the United States said that it is possible that the United States will produce American fighters in India as part of the "Made in India" plan. The representative of the United States also said that India is an important defense partner of Washington and the two sides will continue to cooperate to strengthen security in the Asia-Pacific region. The representative also said that Washington knew about India’s purchase of Russian-made S-400 air defense missile system and had asked India to abandon the deal, but the United States would consider this issue separately.

In June 2017, during the Paris Air Show in France, Lockheed Martin, an American military enterprise, announced that it had signed an agreement with India’s Tata Group to produce the F-16 Block70 in India at the Paris Air Show. India and the United States signed an agreement with a total value of over 10 billion US dollars, which became a heavy news during the air show and triggered a heated discussion. However, due to technology transfer, funds and other issues, the plan for the United States and India to jointly produce the improved F-16 has not yet landed. India plans to buy 114 multi-role fighters, with a budget allocation of about $17 billion. Several rounds of bidding have been conducted, but there has been no result. American F-16, Russian MIG -35, French Gust and Swedish Gryphon all participated in the bidding.

In recent years, the defense relationship between the United States and India has been deepening. Not only have high-level joint military exercises been conducted frequently, but the United States has also sold more and more advanced weapons to India. In the past 12 years, the United States has provided India with more than $18 billion in weapons and equipment, mainly including P-8 anti-submarine patrol aircraft, C-17 large transport aircraft, MH-60 anti-submarine helicopter, AH-64 armed helicopter and large-caliber artillery. At present, the United States has become the second largest exporter of weapons to India after Russia. According to the data at the end of 2018, Russia accounts for about 65% of India’s arms imports, the United States accounts for about 15%, and Israel accounts for about 11%.

F-16 is the third-generation fighter with the largest number of production in the world, and it is still in production today. With the expansion of the stealth fighter in the United States, the demand for the third-generation fighter is gradually decreasing. Transferring the F-16 production line to India can further extract the surplus value of the fighter and earn more money, and further deepen the defense cooperation between the two countries.

In addition to the F-16, the United States also actively promoted the F/A-18 carrier-based fighter to India. In August last year, the US F/A-18 carrier-based fighter successfully carried out the ground takeoff test, which proved to India that the aircraft can take off in the Indian Navy. At present, India has an aircraft carrier "Vikla Matia", and the aircraft carrier "Viklandt" is scheduled to enter the train next year. Both aircraft carriers take off in a skid mode, and the carrier aircraft is a Russian MIG -29. India has purchased 45 MIG-29s in total, but the performance of the aircraft is not good after being equipped in India, and the intact rate is less than 50%. So far, six MIG-29s have crashed. In this regard, the Indian Navy can be said to be "suffering", and the performance of domestic LCA carrier aircraft cannot meet the demand, and MIG-29s can only make do with it. Now, with the deepening of the defense relationship between the United States and India, the choice of carrier aircraft has increased by one.

The F/A-18 carrier-based fighter successfully carried out the ground takeoff test.

As India’s largest supplier of weapons, Russia also sent a core lineup to participate in this air show. Among them, the full-scale model of Su -57E fighter made its debut at the Indian Air Show.

Su -57 is the latest fifth-generation multi-role fighter developed by Russia. The fighter adopts stealth design and composite materials, and its weapons will include hypersonic missiles. The Su -57 prototype made its first flight in 2010, and the first mass production machine was delivered to the army in December 2020. Russia decided to purchase 76 Su-57s and equip three aviation regiments before 2027. Su -57E is the export model of Su -57, which made its debut at the Moscow Air Show in 2019. Its target customers include several Russian traditional fighter sales customers such as India, Vietnam, Indonesia and Algeria.

Victor Kladov, director of international cooperation and regional policy of Russian National Technology Group, said on February 1st that many foreign customers showed great interest in Russian foreign trade weapon Su -57E fifth-generation fighter. "This fighter has aroused great interest in many countries because of its unique combat performance and flight characteristics," Kladov said.

India has reached an agreement with Russia to jointly manufacture FGFA fighters based on Su -57 fighters. In 2007, India and Russia agreed to jointly manufacture FGFA fighters, and signed a cooperation agreement in 2010. In 2018, a senior Indian Defense Ministry official revealed that India will withdraw from the FGFA cooperation project that started 11 years ago. It is said that the FGFA project ended because the two sides have differences in research and development costs and technical capabilities.

Full-scale model of Su -57E fighter.

FGFA is actually an export version of Su -57, but some changes have been made according to the needs of India. At present, the fifth-generation aircraft that India is expected to acquire are only Russian products, the American F-22 is not for sale, and the F-35 has not been exported to India. Moreover, there are many orders for the F-35 from project partners and American allies. Even if the export is agreed, it is unlikely that India will equip the F-35 in the next few years.

Despite the twists and turns, the Su -57 was officially delivered to the troops last year, which is of great significance to this project. With the increase of stealth fighters in India’s neighboring countries, India is likely to buy Su -57 fighters again.

In addition, the close defense cooperation between India and Russia is also an important reason why India chose Su -57. More than 70% of the weapons of the Indian armed forces are Soviet-Russian products, and Russian equipment accounts for 80% of Indian combat aircraft, including Su -30MKI, MIG -29 multi-function fighter and Mi -17 military transport helicopter. Since India put forward the "Made in India" plan in 2014, Russia and India have implemented more than 200 joint projects under this framework.

Following the military frontier technology, the Indian version of "loyal wingman" appeared.

In recent years, the UAV named "loyal wingman" has become a popular equipment in the field of UAV development. The concept of "loyal wingman" was first put forward by the United States in 2015. Subsequently, Russia, Australia, Britain and other countries also launched their own versions of "loyal wingman" drones.

Literally, the "loyal wingman" UAV mainly plays the role of wingman, has autonomous combat capability, can effectively integrate with manned fighters, complete coordinated operations, and improve operational efficiency. The specific operational roles of the "loyal wingman" drone are: acting as a weapon launching platform and launching attacks on targets designated by manned pilots; Strike the target set perceived by the drone; Attract anti-aircraft fire for manned aircraft and destroy threatening targets; Implement anti-interference outside the area; As an information fusion node of ISR.

Valkyria UAV developed by the US Air Force.

There are three main types of "loyal wingman" drones: one is modified from manned fighters; The other is a newly developed UAV. Some high-end UAVs generally adopt stealth design, and some low-end UAVs adopt non-stealth design. The "loyal wingman" drone sacrifices itself when necessary to ensure the safety of manned aircraft, so it is also fully considered in terms of cost and belongs to a product that can be quickly consumed. The "loyal wingman" who cooperates with the fifth-generation aircraft generally adopts stealth design, such as the American XQ-58A and the Russian "Grom".

The XQ-58A "Valkyria" UAV prototype completed its first flight in March 2019. It was jointly developed by the US Air Force Research Laboratory and Karatos UAV Systems Company, with a length of 9.14 meters and an internal bomb bay capable of carrying 272 kilograms of payload. It was mainly designed to cooperate with F-22, F-35 and other manned stealth fighters. The "Grom" UAV designed by Kronstadt Company of Russia was announced for the first time at the 6th International Military and Technical Forum held in August 2020. Airborne weapons, including laser-guided bombs, TV-guided bombs and air-to-ground missiles, were also displayed with the UAV. From the appearance, the stealth UAV is similar to the American XQ-58A UAV, both of which adopt a diamond nose and a backpack inlet.

The "Grom" UAV can carry a variety of precision guided munitions.

At this air show, the Indian military industrial organization also demonstrated the Indian version of the "Loyalty Wingman" drone. Hindustan Aviation Co., Ltd. (HAL) first demonstrated the full-scale Warrior UAV model. The aircraft was developed within the framework of AMCA battle plan, which has been implemented for about five years. In addition, India’s Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO) and Aviation Development Agency (ADA) launched the dual-engine carrier aircraft (TEDBF) program.

From the appearance, the UAV is very similar to Boeing’s "loyal wingman". It adopts stealth design, the inlet is located above the fuselage, the cross section of the fuselage is irregular and polygonal, and the tail nozzle is stealth-treated, which can greatly weaken the radar reflection signal and infrared characteristics. The power system consists of two small turbojet or turbofan engines, which can ensure the UAV to fly at high subsonic speed.

In the vision of the Indian military industry organization, Warrior UAV can cooperate with the domestic AMCA fifth-generation fighter to keep up with the transformation of the combat style of the world-class air force. However, it is one thing to make a model, and it is one thing to really develop a reliable real machine. In the past, Indian military institutions often showed various advanced fighter models at air shows, but few of them were really developed successfully. AMCA’s fifth-generation fighter model has appeared for nearly 10 years, but the project has not been officially launched so far.

In the first three quarters, financial institutions increased their lending to the real economy by 13.9 trillion yuan.

  Economy is the body, finance is the blood, and the two coexist and prosper together. According to data released by the People’s Bank of China recently, in the first three quarters, RMB loans issued by financial institutions to the real economy increased by 13.9 trillion yuan, an increase of 1.1 trillion yuan over the same period of last year, focusing on key areas such as infrastructure and manufacturing, and private and small and micro enterprises.

  Financial flowing water is smooth, stimulating the vitality of the real economy. Recently, reporters came to Zhejiang, Shandong, Anhui and other places to investigate how the financial industry serves the real economy and explore how to improve the long-term mechanism and further enhance the ability of financial institutions to serve the real economy.

  The structure of "quantity" increasing and "price" decreasing is excellent

  Advanced manufacturing, private small and micro enterprises, and people’s livelihood in agriculture, countryside and farmers and other key areas and weak links are getting more and more financial support.

  Oulong Pump Industry Co., Ltd. is located in Wenling, Zhejiang, and the pump industry is a local characteristic industry. "A few years ago, the production mode of enterprises was simple assembly and processing. In this mode, the quality of workers’ skills directly affects the quality of products, and the return rate of pumps once remained high. " Zhang Jianjun, head of the company, recalled.

  After understanding the situation, Taizhou Bank Wenling Daxi Sub-branch provided loans to help enterprises transform and upgrade, with a comprehensive credit line of 4.5 million yuan. With funds at hand, Zhang Jianjun has carried out technical transformation on the painting workshop, coil workshop and installation workshop, which greatly improved the production efficiency of the enterprise, and the output value reached more than 70 million yuan last year. "Without financial support, the transformation and upgrading of enterprises will not be so smooth!"

  "In order to better serve the real economy, the relevant departments have made great efforts to launch a number of initiatives and achieved remarkable results." Ceng Gang, deputy director of the National Finance and Development Laboratory, said that since the beginning of this year, the proactive fiscal policy and prudent monetary policy have continued to exert their strength, and the financial services to the real economy, especially private and small and micro enterprises, have been continuously strengthened, and the "obstruction" of the flow of living financial water to the real economy has been gradually opened.

  Ceng Gang said that in terms of total volume, the prudent monetary policy is moderately tight, and the monetary policy tools such as the deposit reserve ratio and open market operation are used flexibly, which has kept the market liquidity reasonably abundant and the scale of social financing reasonably increased, providing a good monetary and financial environment for high-quality economic development. From the price point of view, in the first eight months of this year, the interest rate of new loans for small and micro enterprises was 6.8%, which was 0.59 percentage points lower than the annual average in 2018. In August, the central bank announced the reform and improvement of the formation mechanism of LPR (loan market quotation rate), which actually pushed down the market interest rate and benefited the real economy.

  "While maintaining a moderate total, the structure of financial supply is also being optimized, with advanced manufacturing, private small and micro enterprises and ‘ Agriculture, countryside and farmers ’ Key areas and weak links such as people’s livelihood are getting more and more financial support. " Ceng Gang said that this depends on the precise efforts of structural policies such as targeted cuts to required reserve ratios and TMLF (targeted medium-term lending facilities). Regulatory requirements such as a 30% increase in the balance of inclusive small and micro enterprise loans of large banks compared with the beginning of the year have also effectively guided the investment of credit funds.

  Under the "precise drip irrigation" of financial running water, the bones and muscles of the real economy are stronger.

  — — Increase financing in key areas such as private enterprises, small and micro enterprises and advanced manufacturing industries.

  "By the end of September, ICBC had lent more than 1 trillion yuan to private enterprises in the real economy, such as manufacturing, software and information technology, and scientific research services." Hu Guangwen, a senior expert in the financial business department of China Industrial and Commercial Bank, said that in terms of resource allocation, ICBC has increased its inclination to private enterprises, giving preferential funds to the departments that provide loans to advanced manufacturing private enterprises, and the price of lending funds has come down, which has reduced the financing cost of enterprises from the source.

  The data shows that as of the end of September, the balance of Pratt & Whitney small and micro loans and private enterprise loans increased by 23.3% and 6.9% respectively. The balance of medium and long-term loans in manufacturing industry increased by 11.3% year-on-year, among which the balance of medium and long-term loans in high-tech manufacturing industry increased by 41.2% year-on-year.

  — — Support the development of weak links such as infrastructure construction, agriculture, rural areas and people’s livelihood.

  "There is no need to find a guarantor anymore, and the red book really works!" Yin Yurong, a farmer in Xiaogang Village, Fengyang, Anhui Province, has successively borrowed nearly 400,000 yuan from the County Agricultural Bank, which has revitalized the low production area of the village and developed the industry of rice and shrimp co-cultivation.

  The "red book" in Yin Yurong’s mouth is the stock certificate. Ma Wu Jun, deputy secretary of the Party Committee of Xiaogang Village, said that the village has set up a collective assets joint-stock cooperative and issued share certificates. "Villagers get global credit by virtue of share certificates. As long as the share certificates are pledged to Xiaogang Village Innovation and Development Co., Ltd., they can apply for a loan of 3,000 yuan to 300,000 yuan from the county agricultural bank."

  "Rural financial services have played an important role in promoting agricultural production, rural economic development and increasing farmers’ income, and are an important part of financial services in the real economy." Dong Ximiao, chief researcher of Xinwang Bank, believes that rural finance is one of the focal points of rural revitalization, and should be based on the needs of new agricultural business entities and innovate financial business models and products and services.

  Establish and improve a long-term mechanism

  The financial information service platform accurately connects supply and demand, and the due diligence exemption mechanism still needs to be improved.

  "I thought that the first loan was cumbersome and took a long time, but after this loan, I completely changed my mind." Huang Yongchao, general manager of Shandong Dezhou Sheng Bang Sports Group Co., Ltd. said with deep feelings.

  Sheng Bang Sports is a high-tech enterprise specializing in the design, research and manufacture of SMC polymer composite products. This year, due to the adjustment of business strategy, the production scale has expanded and the capital turnover pressure has increased. Enterprises have never lent money before, how to deal with banks? Huang Yongchao is at a loss.

  "By chance, I learned that a financing service network system has been built in the province, just at ‘ Shandong government service network ’ ‘ Enterprise financing demand collection ’ In the section, I tried to publish financing information. " Huang Yongchao said that I didn’t expect Dezhou Bank to find the financing needs of enterprises through the platform, and immediately went to the door to dock and give the company a credit of 10 million yuan. "It took only 10 days from the release of financing demand to obtaining a loan, which is really convenient!"

  One of the biggest troubles for financial institutions to serve private and small and micro enterprises is information asymmetry, but this situation is slowly changing. In many parts of the country, various financial information service platforms are constantly emerging, setting up a "connecting bridge" between banks and enterprises:

  The National Development and Reform Commission and the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission recently jointly issued the "Notice on Deepening the Support of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises with Credit Loans", demanding that the information asymmetry between banks and enterprises be solved by strengthening the collection and sharing of credit information; In Shaanxi, the credit financial service platform led by the government has collected the basic information of more than 2 million enterprises in the province and the in-depth information of social security, taxation and land of nearly 17,000 enterprises, realizing the financing demand docking of 18 billion yuan; In Jiangxi, in the first eight months of this year, 84.53 billion yuan of loans were issued through the financing service platform for small and micro enterprises, accounting for 33.3% of the total amount of small and micro loans granted by the province in the same period.

  The "Several Opinions on Strengthening Financial Services for Private Enterprises" issued earlier proposed that we should pay close attention to building and improving big data service platforms such as finance, taxation, market supervision, social security, customs and justice, and realize cross-level cross-departmental cross-regional interconnection. Improve and optimize the information docking mechanism between financial institutions and private enterprises, and realize efficient online docking between the supply and demand sides of funds.

  "Encouraging and guiding finance to support the real economy requires many supporting measures." Ceng Gang said that the construction of financial information service platforms in various places is a useful exploration to establish and improve a long-term mechanism. Local governments are rich in social security, justice and other information, and have the ability to integrate the information originally scattered in various departments to form a huge database. If used legally and in compliance, these precious data will greatly help financial institutions to improve their service level.

  To promote the construction of a long-term mechanism to serve the real economy, we should not only solve the problem of information asymmetry, but also improve the "dare to lend" mechanism of financial institutions. Zhu Shumin, vice chairman of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, said that China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission continued to push banks to further improve the due diligence exemption mechanism, and urged banks to include micro-loan business in the assessment system.

  The reporter learned that Chongqing Banking Insurance Regulatory Bureau recently conducted a thorough investigation on the due diligence exemption of small and micro enterprise loans of banks under its jurisdiction. From the feedback, it has achieved certain results in practice. According to the data, in the first half of this year, the banks under the jurisdiction of Chongqing Banking Insurance Regulatory Bureau exempted 542 million yuan of non-performing loans of small and micro enterprises from due diligence, involving a total of 1,043 exempted employees, including 221 bank managers, 163 approval positions and 659 credit account managers. In order to improve the efficiency of exemption, Chongqing Rural Commercial Bank delegated the exemption authority, giving the branches the due diligence exemption recognition authority within 500,000 yuan.

  The insiders believe that although some progress has been made, the due diligence exemption mechanism is still not perfect, and it is difficult to completely eliminate the worries of account managers. For example, although the regulatory authorities’ tolerance for non-performing loans to small and micro enterprises has increased to 3 percentage points, many banks pay more attention to the assessment of the overall non-performing rate, and they have not separately assessed the non-performing rate of small and micro enterprises, so it is difficult to reflect the policy preferences.

  The key to a good policy is implementation.

  We will implement various policies that have been introduced to reduce taxes and fees and reduce financing costs.

  The Monetary Policy Committee of the People’s Bank of China pointed out at its regular meeting in the third quarter of 2019 that it is necessary to optimize the financing structure and credit structure in accordance with the requirements of deepening the structural reform of the financial supply side, increase support for promoting high-quality development, and improve the adaptability of the financial system to the supply system and the demand system. We will make great efforts to unblock the transmission of monetary policy, adhere to market-oriented reforms to promote a significant reduction in real interest rates, and guide financial institutions to increase their support for the real economy, especially private and small and micro enterprises.

  "At present, the downward pressure on the economy is increasing, and the real economy is facing certain difficulties. We should play a good policy ‘ Several lifts ’ Together, we will implement various policies such as tax reduction and fee reduction and financing cost reduction, flexibly use macro-policy countercyclical adjustment tools, do a good job in policy coordination and linkage, strengthen pre-adjustment and fine-tuning, ensure economic operation in a reasonable range, and stabilize the expectations of private and small and micro enterprises. " Ceng Gang said.

  How to further improve the due diligence exemption mechanism and get through the "last mile" of serving private and small and micro enterprises? Dong Ximiao believes that the supervision of banking institutions should be continuously carried out, and banks should be forced to further improve their internal mechanisms through on-site inspections, window guidance and quarterly discussions. Explore the basic identification standards of due diligence in all aspects of small and micro enterprise loans, and eliminate the concerns of grassroots account managers to the greatest extent by clarifying the boundaries of due diligence and exemption.

I was at the scene and the story behind the photo was born in the sun-the story of Wang Yongcheng’s performance of his duties


    Before the Spring Festival, we met representative Wang Yongcheng in Fujian Strait Massage Guidance Center for the Blind. He just finished his research in Sanming, Fujian, and is preparing to further sort out and revise this year’s proposal materials.

    There were a lot of things before, so I should quickly record the recent research content. Picking up the Braille dot ruler, Wang Yongcheng quickly wrote on the manuscript paper, and the silent corridor rang with the "click" sound when writing in Braille.

   With the help of volunteers, Wang Yongcheng (right) went to Hongqiangxiang Community, Gulou District, Fuzhou City to investigate the enrollment of children from blind families and the occupancy of affordable housing (photo taken on February 18).

    At the age of 18, Wang Yongcheng overcame many difficulties and gradually became the chief physician of medical massage for the blind. He held a training course on blind massage, founded the Fujian Strait Blind Massage Guidance Center, and trained more than 6,000 blind masseurs free of charge, driving more blind people onto the road of self-reliance.

    After being elected as a deputy to the National People’s Congress, Wang Yongcheng constantly received demands from friends with disabilities from all over the world. He conducted in-depth research and actively spoke for this group. Over the past year, Wang Yongcheng has faithfully performed the sacred duties of deputies to the National People’s Congress. He said that his dream is to let the voices of 85 million disabled people be heard and the wishes of 17 million visually impaired people be "seen".

   Wang Yongcheng wrote advice materials in Braille in the studio of Fuzhou Strait Massage Guidance Center for the Blind (photo taken on February 6).

    At last year’s National People’s Congress, as the only blind representative in the 14th National People’s Congress, Wang Yongcheng submitted four suggestions on issues such as employment, education and barrier-free environment construction for the blind.

    "I was very excited when I received the Braille reply for the first time." Wang Yongcheng took out the Braille reply and read it aloud with his fingers.

   Wang Yongcheng (first from right) teaches blind friends the essentials of blind pressing at Fujian Strait Massage Guidance Center for the Blind (photo taken on February 6).

    On the ninth day of the first month, just after the Spring Festival holiday, accompanied by volunteers, Wang Yongcheng went to Hongqiangxiang Community, Gulou District, Fuzhou City to investigate the enrollment of children from blind families and the occupancy of affordable housing. Picking up the four-year-old blind child, Wang Yongcheng asked about the child’s situation. When he learned that the blind child went to school and the blind family security room had landed, Wang Yongcheng smiled.

   Wang Yongcheng (first from left) sent New Year greetings to blind families in Hongqiangxiang Community, Gulou District, Fuzhou (photo taken on February 18).

    On March 5th, the Second Session of the 14th National People’s Congress opened in Beijing. In the resident room, we chatted with Wang Yongcheng about our performance in the past year.

    Wang Yongcheng said: "Last year, I attended the National People’s Congress for the first time. My wife accompanied me all the way as a guide. The resident room was equipped with a Braille computer and the venue was equipped with barrier-free access. This year, the conference provided me with a document in Braille. As a representative of the blind, I am deeply encouraged to continue to drum up and shout for the cause of the disabled. "

   On March 3, representative Wang Yongcheng was interviewed by reporters in his resident room in Beijing.

   On March 3, representative Wang Yongcheng showed his Braille notebook computer in his resident room in Beijing. The computer has no display screen, the upper part is an ordinary keyboard, and the lower part is a refreshable Braille display. Visually impaired people can get information by touching it with their hands.

   On March 3, representative Wang Yongcheng showed his suggestion of writing in Braille in his resident room in Beijing.

    It is because of his own special experience that Wang Yongcheng has a more real understanding and feeling of the practical needs of the blind group in his performance of his duties than others. After being elected as a deputy to the National People’s Congress, he often walked among the blind people, and continued to pay attention to the "urgent difficulties and worries" of the disabled people, seeking good strategies for better promoting the development of the disabled.

   At the opening meeting of the second session of the 14th National People’s Congress, Wang Yongcheng read the conference documents in Braille with his fingers (photo taken on March 5th).

    At the second session of the 14th National People’s Congress, the government work report and other conference documents were simultaneously published in Braille, which made the representative of Wang Yongcheng perform his duties more smoothly. In 2024, he prepared two suggestions on improving the construction of the old-age service system, paying attention to the special needs of the disabled for the elderly, and promoting the integrated development of the cause of the disabled on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, in order to do his part to better promote the development of the cause of the disabled.

   On March 5, in the resident room in Beijing, representative Wang Yongcheng touched and read the government work report in Braille with his finger.

    On March 8, Wang Yongcheng stood in front of the national media at the second centralized interview activity of the second session of the 14th National People’s Congress. His speech was forceful, so that people all over the country could hear him speak for the disabled.

   On March 8, at the second "Delegate Channel" of the Second Session of the 14th National People’s Congress, the delegate Wang Yongcheng (front right) walked forward with the help of the staff, ready to answer the reporter’s questions.

   On March 8, at the second session of the Second Session of the 14th National People’s Congress, representative Wang Yongcheng answered questions from reporters.

    "Although I can’t see the colorful spring, I can feel the warmth of spring." Wang Yongcheng said.

    "I will not only bring the voices of disabled brothers and sisters to the National People’s Congress, but also convey the concern and care of the party and the people to the vast number of disabled people, and encourage disabled brothers and sisters to live in the sun and embark on a road of self-improvement, high spirits and brilliance."

How to measure the price level and the current price level in our city

I. Meaning of price level?

The price level of a society is determined by the average price of the whole society, not the price of a certain item or a certain category of goods. It is a very important indicator to measure the market consumption capacity and analyze its economic situation. At the same time, it also represents the middle value of the common labor income of material producers in the whole society, so the price level is not determined by individuals or individual groups, but by the labor productivity of the whole society. ????

Two, the price level measurement index and legal accounting institutions

The most commonly used Consumer Price Index (CPI) in the international community, also known as consumer price index (CPI), is used as an indicator to measure the price level. The National Bureau of Statistics mainly investigates the consumer prices of residents, which are divided into eight categories: food, alcohol, tobacco, clothing, housing, daily necessities and services, transportation and communication, education, culture and entertainment, medical care, and prices of other goods and services. The National Bureau of Statistics announces the CPI increase level last month every month, which is the change of price level. The consumer price index (CPI) of our city is legally counted by the Qinzhou investigation team of the National Bureau of Statistics. ????

Third, the significance of price level accounting?

Measuring the price level of a region mainly depends on the change of CPI. CPI is an important economic indicator reflecting the changes in the price level of consumer goods and services related to residents’ lives, and it is also an important indicator of macroeconomic analysis and decision-making and national economic accounting. Generally speaking, the level of CPI directly affects the introduction and strength of the country’s macroeconomic regulation and control measures, and is the direction standard of market price regulation. ????

Four, the basic situation of the current price level in our city and the comparison with other places.?

(一)、我市物价水平基本情况。据国家统计局钦州调查队调查统计,?1—5月份,各月CPI同比涨幅分别为0.7%、1.8%、1.4%、2.1%、2.0%?;1-5月(CPI)同比累计上涨1.6%。统计数据显示,我市物价水平处于温和上涨区间,比年初市政府制定的3%以内控制目标低1.4个百分点,居民消费价格指数涨幅处在可控范围之内。????

(二)、我市物价水平与各地对比。我市1-5月(CPI)同比累计上涨1.6%。①与全国平均水平及北上广三个城市平均水平相比。比全国平均水平2.1 %低0.5个百分点;比北京市平均水平1.3%高0.3个百分点,比上海市平均水平3.1%低1.5个百分点,比广州市平均水平2.8%低1.2个百分点;②与广西壮族自治区平均水平及毗邻地区相比。比广西壮族自治区平均水平2.2 %低0.6个百分点,比毗邻地区的南宁市1.9%低0.3个百分点,比北海市的1.7%低0.1个百分点,比防城港市的1.0%高0.6个百分点,在广西壮族自治区14个设区市中,我市CPI同比涨幅排名第九位居中下水平。由此可见,我市的物价处于中等水平。????

5. Why do residents in our city feel that prices are higher at present????

1. The price of food has increased significantly, which is deeply felt by residents. ????

From the eight categories of prices that constitute the consumer price index (CPI), from January to May, the eight categories of prices showed a trend of "five rises and three falls", and the prices of food, tobacco, alcohol, clothing, daily necessities and services, education, culture, entertainment and medical care increased by 5.5%, 2.4%, 1.3%, 2.5% and 0.7% respectively. Obviously, food prices are leading the way. The daily necessities that residents contact most are food, especially during the strong cold weather attack and the Spring Festival at the beginning of this year, the prices of pork and vegetables climbed to a record high, and the prices in residents’ "food baskets" felt heavy, which also affected consumers’ psychology. ????

At present, the price of food, which mainly drives the increase of CPI, is affected by the government’s macro-control, and the increase of pork price will gradually narrow and is expected to stabilize; After the Spring Festival, with the warmer weather, the climate is relatively stable, seasonal fresh vegetables are on the market, the market supply is gradually increasing, and the price of vegetables has dropped significantly compared with the previous period. Since mid-March, the vegetable market price has started to show a downward trend. At present, the local leafy vegetables prices are between 2-3 yuan/500g, and the price has dropped by 10% compared with the previous period.

2. The public has a vague concept of price level. People have a misunderstanding. When they see the price of a certain commodity is high, they say that the price level is high, and they don’t understand or understand the meaning of the price level enough. For example, the price of pig’s foot powder, which belongs to the market-adjusted price, was 7-8 yuan per bowl in the previous two years. Now, due to the rising labor costs and raw material prices, the price of pig’s foot powder has increased to 9 yuan, and some consumers only see the price increase of pig’s foot powder, which is a fuzzy measure of the high market price level. For example, in the past two years, the prices of household appliances, mobile phones, daily industrial products, industrial means of production and real estate in the market have all fallen to varying degrees, which has played a pulling role in the price level and some consumers have ignored it. This is a manifestation of the vague understanding of the concept of price level. ????

6. Why do you feel that the prices in small cities are higher than those in big cities???

1. From the consumption level. Everyone’s income level is different, and their tolerance for prices is also different. High-income groups such as big enterprises, big groups, big finance, big consortia, central enterprises and state-owned enterprises are concentrated in big cities, while the industrial capacity of small cities is not strong, and high-income groups are mainly civil servants and state-owned enterprises and institutions, which also causes residents to feel different about price changes. For example, the price of a bowl of beef powder was originally sold in 8 yuan, but later it was sold to 10 yuan because of the rising labor costs and raw material prices. The consumer groups in big cities are not very strong, but they feel differently in small cities. ??

2. From the point of view of competition. Big cities have a large population, a large flow of people and a large consumption of goods. Full market competition will improve efficiency and lower prices. For example, if you sell beef powder, you can sell 500 Jin a day in a big city, but you may only sell 50 Jin in a small city. Selling 500 Jin to earn one yuan will be very impressive. Because of market competition, it will not be a big loss to make another Jin to earn 0.9 yuan. If a small city sells 50 kilograms, it is estimated that it can still make a living if it earns one yuan per kilogram. If it makes a profit again, it is estimated that it is difficult to make a living in 0.9 yuan. In addition, small cities generally have so-called "general agents" and other agents, and the formed commodity prices may not necessarily reflect the fully competitive market prices. ????

3. From the perspective of supply. In big cities, industries, manufacturing, commodities and services are relatively developed, and the supply is relatively sufficient, while in small cities, there is a structural shortage. For example, basic consumer goods, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar may not be much more expensive in small cities than in big cities. Because the local property or production area is close and the labor cost is low, it may be cheaper. In big cities, there are many brands and wide choices, and the competition between manufacturers and merchants is fierce, which may lead to the price of some necessities being lower than that in small cities.

4. From the perspective of logistics cost. The demand for goods in big cities is large, the logistics cost is relatively low, and the price will naturally be low. The logistics cost from big cities to small cities will be attached to the selling price of goods, and the price in small cities will naturally be higher. ??

The above reasons will lead to lower prices in big cities than in small cities, and the feeling that prices in small cities are higher than in big cities will arise. ????

Seven, the price department to regulate and supervise the market price measures.

With the development of market economy, the scope of government pricing has gradually decreased. Except for a few commodities, more than 95% of commodity prices are mainly formed by market mechanism. So does the price department need not care about the market price? That’s not true. The following are the main measures taken by the price authorities to regulate and supervise the price level:

1. Implement the duties entrusted to us by the Price Law. According to the fourth chapter of "Price Law", "Regulation of General Price Level" clearly stipulates. ????

Article 26 Stabilizing the overall market price level is an important macroeconomic policy goal of the state. According to the needs of national economic development and social affordability, the state determines the goal of regulating the overall market price level, which is included in the national economic and social development plan, and comprehensively applies policies and measures in the fields of currency, finance, investment, import and export to achieve it. ????

Article 27 The government may establish an important commodity reserve system, set up a price adjustment fund, regulate prices and stabilize the market. ????

Twenty-eighth in order to meet the needs of price regulation and management, the government price department should establish a price monitoring system to monitor the changes in the prices of important commodities and services. ????

Article 29 When the market purchase price of grain and other important agricultural products is too low, the government can implement protective prices in the purchase and take corresponding economic measures to ensure their realization. ????

Article 30 When the prices of important commodities and services have risen significantly or are likely to rise significantly, the people’s governments of the State Council and provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government may take intervention measures such as limiting the price difference rate or profit rate, setting price limits, implementing a price increase declaration system and a price adjustment filing system.

The people’s governments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government shall report to the State Council for the record if they take the intervention measures specified in the preceding paragraph. ????

Article 31 When the general market price level is in an abnormal state such as violent fluctuation, the State Council may take emergency measures such as temporarily centralizing pricing authority or partially or completely freezing prices nationwide or in some regions. ????

Article 32 After the circumstances of implementing intervention measures and emergency measures in accordance with the provisions of Articles 30 and 31 of this Law are eliminated, the intervention measures and emergency measures shall be lifted in time. ????

2 actively implement the regulatory objectives set by the Standing Committee of the Municipal People’s Congress. On February 27th, 2016, the third meeting of the Presidium of the Seventh Session of the Fourth People’s Congress of Qinzhou adopted the Report of the Financial and Economic Committee of the Fourth People’s Congress of Qinzhou on the Review Results of the Implementation of the National Economic and Social Development Plan in 2015 and the Draft National Economic and Social Development Plan in 2016, which made it clear that the increase of the overall consumer price level in Qinzhou in 2016 should be controlled within 3%. That is to say, if the price level in our city is higher than 3%, intervention measures shall be taken in accordance with the provisions of the Price Law. ????

3. Start the emergency plan for the sale of affordable goods. According to Article 13 of the Measures for the Administration of Fair-price Stores of Agricultural and Sideline Products in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region: In any of the following circumstances, the competent price department shall negotiate with the operators and put forward a plan for the sale of fair-price goods in conjunction with the financial department, which will be implemented after being approved by the people’s government at the same level: (1) The monthly year-on-year increase in the overall consumer price level reaches or exceeds the government’s annual price control target; (two) in each district and city as a unit, based on the monthly increase of CPI, when the year-on-year increase of CPI in each district and city reaches or exceeds 3% for three consecutive months; (3) The month-on-month increase in food prices exceeded 15%; (4) Pork prices rose by more than 10% month-on-month or accumulated by more than 15% for two consecutive months; (five) the price of vegetables increased by more than 20% year-on-year; (six) according to the market situation to determine other circumstances that may cause abnormal price fluctuations.

4. Strengthen market price supervision, and seriously investigate and deal with price violations such as price gouging, price collusion and hoarding. If there is a phenomenon of "high-priced shrimp and high-priced fish", it will not be tolerated and severely investigated. ????

  Standing at the beginning of 2019, which is changing at a second speed, we ask an "old-fashioned" question. As many people know, there are various manners and customs in the Spring Festival, such as endless dinners and parties that can’t be pushed off, and the resulting nostalgia and social embarrassment … …

  But you know what? The Spring Festival is not only a festival, but also contains social changes, economic development, and every tiny change you bring. On February 4, 2019, Zhongxin.com launched a series of planning "Do you know the Spring Festival", trying to outline the great changes in China’s social landscape through the little changes you and I have made in the Spring Festival.

  Author: Yuan Xiuyue

  For Chinese, the Spring Festival is the most grand festival of the year. After a busy year, people stopped to have a rest. Mary, Vivian and David from Beishangguang went home one after another and became Cui Hua, Dani and Ergouzi. As Lu Xun said, even in the sky, there is a weather that will come to the New Year.

  Chinese pays special attention to eating. The most ceremonial thing in the Spring Festival is the New Year’s Eve. The whole family get together neatly, watch the Spring Festival Gala while eating, and then give out red envelopes and say something auspicious to win a good title for the coming year. This meal not only has delicious food, but also carries many stories and emotions, as well as decades of changes.

  Everything can be bought at the door.

  Although old Shanghai is a "ten-mile foreign market", the customs of the New Year have always been very traditional and particular. It is said that Shanghainese will eat some delicious foods, such as peanuts (longevity fruit), egg dumplings (gold ingot), baked bran (homophonic) and wonton (gold ingot).

  As the saying goes: "It’s spring in the first month of the New Year, and farmers are happiest when they are ripe. After eating the rice cake, they will drink sugar tea and then eat shepherd’s purse dumplings and wonton."

  At the beginning of the New Year’s Eve, cold dishes, such as Italian food and boiled chicken, are served first, then hot dishes, fish and shrimp, and, indispensable, soup. Chen Rongfu, 68, said that no matter what you cook, you must first prepare old duck soup and old hen soup, which are loved by adults and children.

  Every year, Chen Rongfu and his wife prepare the New Year’s Eve dinner. Even if they eat it, they have to prepare 20 dishes.

  They don’t use online shopping, and they are not used to fresh supermarkets that are fashionable among young people. Instead, they prefer to go to various vegetable markets to find the most affordable ingredients. A long time ago, they began to prepare materials for the New Year’s Eve dinner. They bought some meat today and some dry goods tomorrow. In recent years, the refrigerators have become bigger and bigger.

  I didn’t dare to think about this before. Chen Rongfu said that before the Spring Festival, every household hung pickles, and the vegetable seller would help pickle them and hang them at home to dry, so that they wouldn’t go bad easily.

  From 1950s to 1980s, materials were scarce, and many things were supplied by ticket. Chen Rongfu recalled that every new year, every household will have a card, and there are many people in the family, and the number will be a little more.

  Anyone who has some fish and meat at home is usually left for guests to eat. "Someone came to be a guest, and I took all these things out of my family. Anyway, it doesn’t matter if the door is closed." Chen Rongfu said.

  I don’t need it at all now. I string relatives during the New Year, and the dishes of every household are similar.

  When he was young, Chen Rongfu was a sailor and drifted around all year round. At that time, the traffic was underdeveloped, the price gap between places was relatively large, and the richness of goods was also different.

  At that time, the most common thing he did was to carry special products back from all over the country, and every time it was a big bag. But now, Chen Rongfu has long lost this habit, and everything can be bought at the door, which is not worth it.

  The only thing that does not change on New Year’s Eve is bean buns.

  Shexian County, Handan City, Hebei Province is located at the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain, in a mountainous area, and is rich in fruit. Zanthoxylum bungeanum, walnut and persimmon are called "Three Treasures in Shexian County". Every new year, of course, they are indispensable in the New Year’s Eve dinner.

  In the northeast, there is a custom of eating sticky bean buns during the Spring Festival. Using yellow wheat to make the skin and wrapping it with bean stuffing made of various beans can not only resist hunger, but also have a good meaning. In Shexian County, Hebei Province, you should also eat bean bags during the New Year. But unlike the Northeast, they used to use corn flour as the skin, but now they use white flour as the skin. There are both red beans and Shexian specialties in the stuffing — — Persimmon.

  Yang Linzhen, 61, has many years of experience in making bean curd. She said that the New Year’s Eve dinner in the village is very simple. Cook some jiaozi, stir-fry some dishes, and then steamed bread with bean curd. Before the Chinese New Year, every household should steam a lot of steamed buns and bean bags and eat them until the Lantern Festival.

  The essence of bean curd lies in the stuffing. After persimmon is peeled, it can be made into persimmon cake, and the persimmon peel is cooked with red beans to make the stuffing of bean curd. Old people like to eat this kind of bean bag, which is soft, sweet and not greasy, and has the smell of persimmon.

  There are many people in Yang Linzhen’s family. Every New Year, she will steam steamed buns and bean bags in the cauldron of the local stove, and she can cook fifty or sixty at a time.

  In the past, many people planted persimmon trees at home, but in recent years, persimmon trees have become less and less. Yang Linzhen said that farming at home made less money, young people went out to work, persimmon trees were left unattended and slowly died. The persimmon that Yang Linzhen ate at home was still grafted from the black jujube tree.

  For decades, the New Year’s Eve dinner of Yang Linzhen’s family has changed a lot, and the only constant is this bean bag.

  More convenient and healthy New Year’s Eve dinner

  Another Spring Festival, Song Yun of Hebei teased himself that he was going home to lose weight. Before the Chinese New Year, their family will also prepare a lot of steamed bread, bean buns, steamed dumplings with instant noodles, and cut cakes, but more of them are meat. Chopped cubes of meat are cooked, with a layer of salt on the surface.

  It is also popular to send meat, donkey meat, beef and mutton, pork and so on. Zhang Yun said that during the Chinese New Year, almost all people eat meat and few vegetables.

  Therefore, every New Year, Song Yun doesn’t eat much. He will buy a box of oranges at home and finish them in a few days.

  Zhang Yun’s father died young, and his two sisters got married one after another, leaving only him and his mother for the New Year. If these years have changed, it is that there are fewer and fewer people. At the New Year’s Eve, their home was exceptionally clean.

  The function of the New Year’s Eve dinner is fading away, and more people are thinking about how to eat conveniently and healthily.

  "It has been the same for more than 20 years, nothing has changed, just being a vegetarian." Meng Zhang, from Hubei, said that on New Year’s Eve in recent years, his family always prepared more vegetarian dishes. Qiu Chen of Nanchang, Jiangxi Province also said that their New Year’s Eve dinner is getting simpler and simpler. Every day, everyone is tired of eating big fish and big meat.

  Cooking and cooking in the New Year is also a physical activity for parents. In order not to make New Year’s Eve a burden, many people are trying to find a way. In the 1990s, it became popular for people in the city to go to restaurants for New Year’s Eve dinner. In recent years, more and more families have gone out for New Year’s Eve dinner. Half a month in advance, many restaurants have been booked out for the New Year’s Eve dinner, and it is hard to find a table for popular restaurants.

  In order to save trouble, some people buy New Year’s Eve dinner online. Online shopping for semi-finished New Year’s Eve dinner has also become a new choice for many young people after 80 s and 90 s.

  "On this day of the Spring Festival, it is a festival, and they have to be prepared for the excitement. It’s just that when I’m old, it’s hard work to cook and cook. " A netizen bought a set of Shanghai-style New Year’s Eve dinner for his parents. He said that semi-finished dishes are convenient and can be cooked quickly, and it can save effort during the New Year.

  Good boys don’t make money on New Year’s Eve.

  Customs vary from place to place in Fujian Province, and New Year’s Eve is also very particular. Rice cakes, seafood, tofu and spinach are common ones. Xie Jia, a 23-year-old, said that every year during the Chinese New Year, my mother would prepare many dishes, such as braised pork, sausage, bacon, preserved duck, jiaozi and soup, which are available every year, and others would be added depending on the situation.

  Although living conditions are better now, Xie Jia especially misses the Spring Festival when she was a child. In her memory, the New Year’s Eve dinner used to be more traditional, but now it is more casual. Although the previous New Year’s Eve dinner was not as rich as it is now, it was more grand and formal, and the annual flavor was more sufficient.

  Chen Rongfu always misses the Spring Festival when he was a child. He said that when I was a child, the Spring Festival was like a reward. I could wear new clothes, eat delicious food, set off firecrackers and not go to school, so I looked forward to the Spring Festival every day.

  Nowadays, children have grown up and gone out to work, and Shanghai can’t set off firecrackers casually. The New Year seems deserted. But the good news is that the material conditions are really much better.

  When he was young, he seldom went home for the New Year. Really homesick, just sing a song to solve it. Now with the high-speed rail, the old couple can go to Beijing on business with their son. With video calling, I can meet my son every day.

  There is an old saying in Fuzhou, Fujian — — "Good kids don’t make money" means that good kids don’t make money on New Year’s Eve. Before New Year’s Eve, Fuzhou people who are working in business will definitely go back to reunite with their families and have a New Year’s Eve dinner together. On New Year’s Eve, there will be no visits, so the whole family should get together, and we can’t have dinner if people are not together.

  For decades, perhaps the taste of the year is not as full as before, and the New Year’s Eve dinner is also casual, but what remains unchanged is the sincerity of returning home and reuniting.

  We no longer buy new year’s goods in big bags and small bags, because of the popularity of e-commerce, we can also buy local specialties at our doorstep; I no longer look forward to the big fish and big meat dinner once a year, because people pay more attention to how to eat healthier … …

  It’s been a hard year. Let’s have a good meal with our family. This is the real meaning of the New Year’s Eve. (At the request of the interviewee, some characters in the text are pseudonyms) (End)
