Eating, sleeping, breathing, all-round attention, healthy ecology, and intensive care.

Young people are troubled by practical problems such as lack of sleep, irregular diet and lack of exercise, and begin to pay more attention to health problems. The healthy ecology of six health scenes, such as table health, health care, home health, health care, emotional healing and deep sleep, has entered a new stage of development.

Six scenarios of healthy ecology evolving into a new order are the most typical.

The "14th Five-Year Plan" clearly points out that we will continue to promote the transformation from disease treatment to health management, and put "prevention" in a more prominent position. This coincides with the current health concept of Chinese people. The public is not only concerned about treatment and drugs, but also expects prevention and maintenance to become a sustainable daily life.

In recent years, medical enterprises, financial and insurance companies, and Internet companies have continued to lay out the big health market by virtue of their own track advantages. Some have integrated the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain to build a full-cycle big health management platform, and some have created a comprehensive service system for refined health management through technologies such as artificial intelligence and cloud services. The demand side and the supply side jointly promoted the whole healthy ecology to evolve into a new order.

According to the Report on Nutrition and Chronic Diseases of China Residents, there are nearly 300 million patients with chronic diseases in China, and the number is increasing year by year, showing a trend of youthfulness.

On the one hand, young people suffer from practical problems such as staying up late (56%), irregular diet (35%) and lack of exercise (35%), on the other hand, they also give play to their subjective initiative to "save themselves". For example, insomnia, search on the e-commerce platform found that the monthly sales of melatonin products in the head are more than 10,000; On the bilibili, more than 20 million sleep-aid videos such as rain, white noise and 432 Hz panoramic sound were played.

Sleep is only one aspect. Diet health, sleep health, exercise health and even respiratory health and scalp health are infiltrating into all aspects of Chinese life, and are developing in the direction of refinement and daily life. The whole healthy ecology has also entered the "intensive cultivation era".

According to the Insight Report on Healthy Living Trends in China in 2023 released by CBNData, the intensive care mode of six health scenes, namely, table health, health care, home health, health care, emotional healing and deep sleep, is the most typical.

Food is healthy, grab snacks, and care for the scalp.

Providing healthy vegetables with rich nutrition with fewer calories-With people’s increasing concern about food health, "super food" has entered the public’s field of vision. In the past year, the number of discussion posts related to "super food" on the platform of Little Red Book has doubled. Kale, brown rice, chia seeds, raw cocoa powder … a series of once slightly unpopular foods now have many fans who pursue a healthy and slim figure.

We should not only satisfy our cravings, but also make our bodies lightly burdened-besides three meals, people’s health of food is also refined to snacks. According to the report, more than 60% of consumers are concerned about whether the products meet the health needs such as no addition and little addition. With the increasing demand of users for health, leisure snack brands also smell the breakthrough point of differentiation. Taking the dried mango introduced by a domestic brand as an example, Xiaotainong No.1 mango was selected, and the ingredients were simplified in the production process, and the original flavor of mango was restored by zero flavor pigment, which stood out among many pickled dried mangoes with heavy taste.

At the same time, healthy snacks also expand a variety of consumption scenarios. For example, in the New Year gift-giving scene, the nut gift box becomes the preferred category.

In the field of washing and care, people have never returned on the road of refinement, and started the intensive care from scalp, teeth to skin. For example, in the field of body care, people’s demands have been upgraded from basic cleaning to functions such as mite removal, bacteriostasis and acne removal.

The upgrading of people’s demand for nursing experience makes the brand innovate products based on its own characteristics to provide a better experience. For example, a national care brand used to focus on medicated soap, but now it has also introduced liquid soap, which changes the traditional rubbing method, makes care more convenient by pressing and foaming, and is more friendly to the skin barrier by the combination of colloidal sulfur and amino acids.

Home health runs through drinking water and breathing. Intelligent technology cuts into sleep scenes.

In terms of home health, China families pay more and more attention to drinking water health and respiratory health, and home water purifiers and air purifiers have become popular products.

According to the Report, 53% of the respondents are concerned about drinking water health, which is reflected in the consumption data. From January to September 2023, the scale growth rate of the TOP brand of home water purifier on e-commerce platform is considerable.

In the new field of respiratory health, people are most concerned about the "circulation problem", which has also led to the rise of household air purifiers and oxygen generators.

At the same time, technological innovation is helping to solve the sleep problem, and intelligent technology products are popular.

Insomnia is a scourge for contemporary people. According to the survey, nearly 300 million people in China have sleep problems. Retaliatory staying up late and mental stress make it difficult to sleep peacefully.

At present, intelligent technology has cut into the "sleep" scene, and many "sleepy households" have begun to seek a safe night’s sleep with the help of smart wearable devices such as smart sleep devices and sleep ventilators. The report shows that the "sleepy households" in the post-00, post-95 and post-90 age groups have a strong preference for related technology products.

Young people’s ancient health care "blood awakening" light outdoor light healing to find dopamine

Health care products are no longer exclusive to silver-haired people, and many young people have entered the ranks of "fourth meal" consumption in advance. People of different ages have different needs for health care products, but daily nutrition balance, relieving visual fatigue and bone and joint health have become consensus issues of many ages.

Intergenerational differences are also reflected in the way of health care, and the blood of young people’s ancient health care has been "awakened". In bilibili, the video of Ba Duan Jin’s tutorial has been played more than 10 million times, the topic of "holding trees" in Little Red Book has been viewed more than 10 million times, and there are more than 50,000 notes on "basking in the back". The new generation has begun to give their bodies to nature and experience the true energy of heaven and earth.

Another representative of embracing nature is the outdoor lifestyle. From camping to upstream, from hiking to citywalk, lightweight outdoor sports with "low threshold and strong socialization" have become a popular way to decompress. According to the Report, emotional relaxation and healing (55%), releasing the pressure of life and work (53%) and being close to nature (52%) are the main factors for people to participate in outdoor sports every day.

In addition to natural outdoor, directional sensory therapy provides people with a new way of emotional experience. According to the odor market survey of MoodMedia, 75% of the emotions generated by human beings every day are caused by odor, and the emotional value of olfactory economy is constantly being amplified. Different kinds of products, such as scented candles, aromatherapy essential oils and scented body lotions, continue to emerge, providing various functions such as relaxation and healing, helping sleep and calming the nerves.

The sound healing represented by ode bowl and ASMR (also known as "ear sound") is also quietly "breaking the circle" by the minority. According to the report, during the period from September last year to August this year, the number of posts related to "ode to healing and meditation" in Xiaohongshu reached 120,000, an increase of 124% year-on-year, and the amount of interaction increased by 87% year-on-year.

The Indian statement did not mention the one-China principle. My Ambassador to India: I hope that India can publicly reaffirm its adherence to the one-China principle like many countries.

[Text/Observer Network Qi Qian] After Pelosi’s flight to Taiwan caused tension in the Taiwan Strait, as a member of the "Quad(Quadrilateral Security Dialogue)" of the United States, Japan, Australia and India, Indian officials have remained silent. While the outside world was speculating about India’s attitude, the Indian Foreign Ministry suddenly voiced on August 12th that "India’s relevant policies are consistent and need not be repeated", but it did not directly mention "adhering to the one-China principle".
This statement has attracted the attention of Indian and American media. Bloomberg mentioned that the Indian government adheres to the one-China principle, but in recent years, due to border conflicts and other reasons, India has not reiterated this position in bilateral documents and public statements.
On August 13th, local time, Sun Weidong, Chinese Ambassador to India, held a media forum on Pelosi’s flight to Taiwan. Sun Weidong said that the one-China principle is the political basis of China-India relations and the fundamental prerequisite for China to develop relations with other countries, including India. "We hope that India can publicly reaffirm its adherence to the one-China principle like many countries."

According to the news from the Embassy in India, on August 13th, Ambassador Sun Weidong held a media forum on US House Speaker Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan, China. A number of mainstream Indian media, as well as Xinhua News Agency, China Central Radio and Television Station and other media stationed in India and China participated.
Sun Weidong said, as we all know, the cause of the current tension in the Taiwan Strait is that the US insists on arranging Speaker Pelosi to visit Taiwan, China despite China’s resolute opposition and repeated representations. It is only natural that China should respond resolutely and defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity, which is reasonable, legal and justified. The cause and effect of the incident are clear at a glance, and the responsibility lies entirely with the US.
Sun Weidong emphasized to the Indian media that Pelosi’s channeling to Taiwan was an out-and-out political farce, and the initiator was the United States. Taiwan Province has belonged to China since ancient times and has never been a country. Both sides of the strait belong to the same China. This is the status quo of Taiwan Province since ancient times. Faced with the perverse actions of the US and the Democratic Progressive Party authorities in Taiwan Province, China has no choice but to fight back.
He further pointed out that China hopes that India will adhere to an independent foreign policy, understand and support China’s just stand and its efforts to safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests, and abide by the one-China principle. I also hope that our friends in the Indian media will be alert to the instigation of the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces, adhere to the principles of objectivity, rationality, independence and justice in their reports on Taiwan, abide by the one-China political commitment made by the Indian government, and will not be led by the anti-China forces and the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces.
Sun Weidong also claimed that,The One-China principle is the political basis of Sino-Indian relations and the fundamental premise for China to develop relations with other countries including India. "We hope that India can publicly reaffirm its adherence to the one-China principle like many countries."
According to The Hindu, Sun Weidong’s remarks were in response to questions from Indian media. At the symposium, a reporter asked, what do you think of the Indian Foreign Ministry spokesman’s statement on the situation in the Taiwan Strait the day before, but he did not reiterate the one-China principle?

On August 12th, a spokesman for the Indian Ministry of Foreign Affairs suddenly made a statement on the Taiwan Province issue, saying that "India’s relevant policies are well known and consistent, and there is no need to repeat them". He added that India urged all parties to exercise restraint and oppose any unilateral change in the status quo in the Taiwan Strait.
It is worth noting that after Pelosi’s flight to Taiwan caused tension in the Taiwan Strait, Indian officials have remained silent, neither reaffirming the one-China principle like most countries in the world, nor making irresponsible remarks on Chinese military exercises on the side of the United States. Bloomberg previously quoted an analysis as saying that "no response is also a response", which shows that the degree to which India is prepared to turn to the "American track" when seeking to manage its relations with China is limited.
The Indian side suddenly voiced but did not directly mention "one China", which attracted the attention of Indian and American media. Among them, Bloomberg mentioned that although the Indian government pursues the one-China principle, due to border conflicts and other reasons, in recent years, the Indian side has not reiterated this position in bilateral documents and public statements.

In addition, Ambassador Sun Weidong also had frank and in-depth exchanges with reporters on China-India relations, the border situation and bilateral economic and trade cooperation.
Sun Weidong told Indian media that Indian students would return to China "soon".
In July this year, Wang Wenbin, spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, responded that the work of returning Indian students to China has made positive progress recently, and the competent authorities of both sides will continue to maintain close communication and strive for the first batch of Indian students to return to classes as soon as possible.
When talking about Sino-Indian relations, Sun Weidong pointed out that China attaches great importance to bilateral relations and is "trying to get Sino-Indian relations back on track". He stressed: "We hope that this kind of effort can get a response from India. We believe that when we achieve this goal, it will certainly benefit not only our two sides, but also the region and the world. "

A new round of deposit interest rate cuts opens today! The biggest drop is 25 basis points, and the interest of 200,000 yuan saved for three years is 1,500 yuan less.

On May 20th, the market had expected a new round of deposit interest rate cuts to open. Six big state-owned banks and China Merchants Bank all announced the latest listing interest rates of RMB deposits in official website, which will be implemented from today. Every time the reporter noticed that this adjustment, the medium and long-term deposit interest rate dropped even more. Specifically, demand deposits are lowered by 5BP, and the interest rates for lump-sum deposit and withdrawal for three months, six months, one year and two years are all lowered by 15BP, and the interest rates for three years and five years are all lowered by 25BP.

"In fact, customers have expectations. I thought that the deposit interest rate would drop before, but I just don’t know when it will be implemented." The person in charge of a big bank outlet told reporters. Based on the current latest interest rate, if 200,000 yuan is deposited, the total interest for three years will be reduced by 1,500 yuan compared with before.

This is the seventh round of deposit listing interest rate reduction led by big banks since the establishment of the market-oriented adjustment mechanism of deposit interest rate in April 2022, and it is also the first time this year. Judging from the pace of downward adjustment of deposit interest rates in previous rounds, all of them are led by big banks, followed by stock banks, city commercial banks and rural commercial banks.

The reporter noticed that after the deposit interest rate of big banks was lowered today, some wealth management managers of stock banks actively opened their business, and informed customers through WeChat friends circle, etc., that some deposits above 2% still have quotas, and they can pay close attention to them if necessary. A wealth management manager said: "Today, our bank temporarily does not adjust, and it is estimated that it will be adjusted tomorrow, and it will be saved and cherished."

In addition, some wealth management managers recommend wealth management products to customers by lowering the deposit interest rate today. The reporter noted that the deposit interest rate has been declining in recent years, and the one-year deposit interest rate has fallen below 1% after this adjustment. In this context, will the phenomenon of "deposit moving" be further highlighted?

Some interviewees believe that lowering the deposit interest rate will objectively reduce the attractiveness of deposit products and bring incremental funds to the wealth management market. However, considering the low-risk preference of most depositors, it is not expected that there will be a large-scale "deposit move". In addition, because cash and bank deposits account for more than 20% of the wealth management asset allocation structure, the reduction of deposit interest rate will also bring income pressure to some wealth management products.

On May 20th, the six major banks collectively announced the adjustment of the deposit listing interest rate, and the current demand was lowered from 0.1% to 0.05%, a decrease of 5 BP. In the lump-sum deposit and lump-sum withdrawal time deposit, the three-month, six-month, one-year and two-year term declines are all 15BP, and the three-year and five-year declines are all 25BP. China Merchants Bank, a joint-stock bank, also lowered the deposit listing interest rate at the same time today, and the adjustment range of each term was consistent with that of the big bank.

Specifically, after this adjustment, the five major banks, namely Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, China Construction Bank, Agricultural Bank, Bank of China, Bank of Communications and China Merchants Bank, have lump-sum deposit and withdrawal rates of 0.65%, 0.85%, 0.95%, 1.25% and 1.5% respectively for three months, one year, two years, three years and five years.

The six-month and one-year lump-sum interest rates of the Postal Savings Bank are 0.86% and 0.98% respectively, which are slightly 1BP and 3BP higher than those of the above-mentioned banks for the same term, and the lump-sum interest rates for other terms are consistent with those of the above-mentioned banks.

For this round of deposit interest rate reduction, the market generally expected. On May 7, Pan Gongsheng, the governor of the central bank, announced a package of monetary policy measures such as interest rate reduction and RRR reduction at the press conference held by the the State Council Press Office, and mentioned that commercial banks would be guided to lower the deposit interest rate accordingly through the interest rate self-discipline mechanism.

"In order to implement the macro-control policy, after the central bank introduced a package of monetary policy measures such as interest rate cuts and RRR cuts, the interest rate of bank assets will be further reduced. In order to alleviate the pressure of net interest margin, the six major banks and China Merchants Bank took the lead in a new round of deposit interest rate adjustment. Subsequent small and medium-sized banks will follow up, and the subsequent adjustment space of large banks needs to look at the implementation effect of this round of regulation and control policies. " Yang Haiping, a special researcher of Beijing Wealth Management Industry Association, said in an interview with reporter WeChat.

"Under normal circumstances, large state-owned banks tend to take the lead in adjusting deposit interest rates because of their stable liabilities and strong customer base, thus establishing an’ anchor’ for the market; Subsequently, small and medium-sized banks followed up the downward adjustment in order to maintain the interest margin and refer to the market competition. " Ceng Gang, chief expert and director of the Shanghai Finance and Development Laboratory, said in an interview with reporter WeChat that, on the whole, the reduction of deposit interest rate by state-owned banks is an important part of the interest rate reduction policy on May 7.

Ceng Gang further explained that the transmission path of monetary policy interest rate cuts affecting the real economy is usually as follows: First, the central bank’s policy interest rate is lowered, which promotes the decline of the capital cost of the financial system; Second, state-owned banks first lowered the deposit interest rate and led the industry adjustment; Third, small and medium-sized banks have followed suit and successively lowered their prices, forming an industry linkage; Fourth, the downward trend of deposit interest rate has further reduced the loan interest rate and reduced the cost of entity financing.

The reporter noted that since the establishment of the market-oriented adjustment mechanism of deposit interest rate in April 2022, the deposit listing interest rate, led by big banks, has been lowered for seven rounds. Behind the continuous downward adjustment of deposit interest rates is the increasingly prominent spread pressure of the banking industry. According to the disclosure of the General Administration of Financial Supervision, in the first quarter of 2025, the net interest margin of commercial banks was 1.43%, down 0.09 percentage points from the previous quarter, hitting a record low, and deviating from the regulatory consensus level of 1.80%.

At the same time as the deposit interest rate was lowered, the latest LPR quotation was also released today. The one-year LPR was 3.0%, and the five-year LPR was 3.5%, both of which were 10BP lower than the previous period, which was also the first decline of LPR in a year.

Wang Qing, chief macro analyst of Oriental Jincheng, said: "Based on the current proportion of various types of deposits, we judge that after the six major banks cut the deposit interest rate and drive other commercial banks to follow up the adjustment, the overall deposit interest rate will be lowered by 0.11 to 0.13 percentage points, which can basically cover the impact of the lower LPR quotation on the bank’s asset-side income and stabilize the bank’s net interest margin."

Wen Bin, chief economist of China Minsheng Bank, believes that lowering the RRR and lowering the deposit listing interest rate will continue to improve the debt cost of banks. He said that last year, two reductions in the deposit listing interest rate, the suspension of "manual interest payment" and interbank deposit interest rate control made the bank’s debt cost control continue to be effective, which partially offset the downward pressure on the asset-side rate of return.

On May 15th, the RRR cut of 0.5 percentage point officially landed, providing the market with long-term liquidity of about 1 trillion yuan, optimizing the bank’s debt structure and saving the debt cost; At the same time, the structural policy tools cut interest rates by 25BP, which is expected to save the bank’s capital cost by about 15 billion to 20 billion yuan each year, and to some extent alleviate the pressure of narrowing the net interest margin.

"The reduction of deposit interest rate is greater than the decline of LPR, which also helps to reduce the cost of bank debt and create space for the downward adjustment of LPR quotation." Wen Bin said.

According to the calculation of the Bank Group of Zhongtai Securities Research Institute, this round of interest rate cuts, deposit interest rate cuts and RRR cuts are expected to increase the comprehensive level of bank interest margin by 2.9BP in 2025, and the reduction of deposit interest rate exceeds the decline of LPR, thus effectively supporting the interest margin.

Ceng Gang told reporters that for banks, lowering the deposit interest rate can effectively reduce the cost of capital and increase the net interest margin, thus enhancing their profitability and capital accumulation capacity, and at the same time improving their own business stability, providing space for subsequent expansion of credit supply. In addition, lowering the deposit interest rate can also guide more funds to flow to non-deposit financial products such as wealth management and funds, which will help banks adjust their asset-liability structure and expand their income sources.

In recent years, with the continuous decline of deposit interest rates, some depositors have turned their attention to bank wealth management products. After this adjustment, the one-year deposit rate has fallen below 1%. In this context, will the phenomenon of "deposit moving" be further highlighted?

Ming Ming, chief economist of CITIC Securities, mentioned in the research report that the new round of deposit interest rate cuts will help banks control interest costs, but at the same time it will also increase the difficulty of saving, and low-risk asset management products such as bank wealth management will usher in incremental funds. For the bond market, the reduction of deposit interest rate may push the broad-spectrum interest rate, including the national debt interest rate, down further. At the same time, it will also promote the "deposit moving" to continue, and the scale of financial management may exceed the historical high of 33 trillion yuan during the year.

"The downward adjustment of deposit interest rate objectively reduces the attractiveness of deposit products. It is expected that a certain proportion of deposits will look for alternative products, which is conducive to the scale of bank wealth management to a certain extent. However, it is difficult for the current public risk appetite to change greatly. Most ordinary people pay more attention to the safety of funds, so we judge that there will be no large-scale deposit move. " Yang Haiping told reporters.

In an interview with national business daily reporter WeChat, Wang Qing said that lowering the deposit interest rate, especially the medium and long-term deposit interest rate, will reduce the attractiveness of bank deposits, and depositors may readjust their asset allocation and transfer some deposits to wealth management products, bringing incremental funds to the wealth management market. However, it should be noted that in the asset allocation structure of wealth management, cash and bank deposits account for more than 20% (23% in the first quarter of 2025). Therefore, lowering the deposit interest rate will also bring income pressure to some wealth management products.

Calligraphy and painting | 40-year nine-character formula for special economic zones

  In 1980, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Shantou and Xiamen were formally established! As the "testing ground" and "window" of reform and opening up, special economic zones have opened a brand-new page for China’s economic and social development. After 40 years of hard exploration, countless builders, entrepreneurs and strugglers bravely stood on the forefront and braved the wind and waves.

  "Only innovators are strong, but those who reform and innovate win." There is too much pride and hardship behind the 40 years of glory. If you use nine words to sort out these 40 years, would you choose these words? ↓ ↓ ↓

  Forty years have passed in a flash, and the witnesses must want to say "special love to special you" to the SAR. Yes, the SAR is "special", so are countless people’s love and dedication to her. The harvest and growth are also "special" for individuals and countries. The 40 years of the SAR are worthy of this word!

  Without reform and opening up, there would be no special economic zones! And special economic zones are also a banner of reform and opening up. As the ancients said, running water does not rot, and a family member does not bite. The world has changed, and the word "change" is in the chest, so that it will not be complacent and will not set limits on itself.

  Crossing the river by feeling the stones is easier said than done, so the word "brave" is more needed. Without "courage", what can we talk about? Without "courage", what can we talk about? The brave win when they meet in the narrow road. The special economic zone has today’s situation. We need to pay tribute to a group of brave people!

  Only "courage" is not enough, and both wisdom and courage can make the special economic zone walk on two legs! Over the past 40 years, every step of the special economic zones has concentrated the wisdom of countless people, and the amazing achievements have proved to the world that the ancient peoples in the East have never lacked intelligence.

  "Dare to be the first in the world" is the first sentence that many people think of when they mention special economic zones. It is "safe" to keep pace with others, but without the courage to be a pioneer, where can there be the glory and achievements of special economic zones?

  How many difficulties have the special economic zones overcome in the past 40 years? How many stones have been kicked away? It depends on Chinese’s belief that "if you don’t fight at this time, when will you fight?" It depends on the enthusiasm of "if you love to fight, you will win".

  "The martial arts in the world are fast and unbreakable", and the construction and development of special economic zones also highlight the word "fast". In just forty years, how many miracles have been created that others may not be able to accomplish in a hundred years? Time is money, and efficiency is life. People in the SAR have the deepest understanding of this saying, and the concept of seizing the day has already been integrated into their blood and bone marrow of more and more Chinese. "China speed" is not built!

  How much pride does an ordinary word "Chuang" contain in belonging to a special economic zone? Establish one enterprise after another, create one brand after another, innovate one product after another, create a batch of talents, and more importantly, create an era that will benefit and make all Chinese proud!

  New era, new ideas, new goals, new actions and new achievements! It’s only forty, and the special economic zone has a long way to go! People in the SAR, Chinese, never sleeps on the credit book. If you ask them about their most brilliant achievements and most satisfactory results, they will always be next!

Two common misunderstandings about probiotics

  ◎ He Guoqing (Professor, School of biosystems engineering and Food Science, Zhejiang University)

  What is the hottest thing in nutrition now? "Probiotics" is definitely an existence that can’t be ignored, and it has become a hot topic on the Internet, giving birth to online celebrity products with all kinds of probiotics as elements.

  While the topic of "probiotics" is hot, consumers can’t help but have many questions. What kind of bacteria is probiotics? Is there any substantial benefit to ordinary people? The following experts will come out to explain the misunderstandings about probiotics that have appeared in recent years.

  Myth 1: Probiotic health foods can replace drugs to treat diseases.

  Tell you for sure: no.

  First, probiotic health foods are not medicines.

  So what is a drug? There is a strict definition of drugs. Let’s talk about the purpose of using drugs first. Drugs are used to prevent, treat and diagnose human diseases and adjust human physiological functions purposefully. It is stipulated that there are clear indications or functional indications, in short, what diseases and their symptoms are targeted at, such as colds, fever, cough, pneumonia, enteritis and so on; It must also be clear about the usage: oral (fasting, after meals), intramuscular injection, intravenous injection, and which drugs can not be used at the same time, and the dosage (excessive dosage may have serious consequences, such as sleeping pills can improve sleep, and excessive dosage can kill); It is also necessary to explain what side effects there are. As the saying goes, "drugs are toxic in three ways", that is to say, drugs are allowed to have side effects, because if you want to treat a disease, you can only take the lesser of the two evils, and you should stop taking drugs when you recover, or you should stop taking drugs and change to other drugs after using them for a certain period of time (course of treatment).

  Second, probiotic health food is food, not for the purpose of treating diseases.

  The word health food contains two meanings: health care and food, that is to say, it has health care function, but it retains the basic requirement of food: safety. Health food is suitable for a specific group of people, generally a group (s) with poor physiological function, or a sub-healthy group. Moreover, different health foods have different health functions, which are suitable for different groups of people, such as constipation or diarrhea due to disorder of intestinal flora, frequent colds due to low immune function, fatigue and other different conditions, so the corresponding health foods are used. The state stipulates that health foods have 27 functions, and there are 27 different health foods; The purpose of eating health food is also to regulate the body function, prevent and reduce the occurrence of diseases, but not to treat diseases.

  Health food belongs to food, and the most basic requirement of food must be maintained, that is, it is safe and does not cause any acute, subacute or chronic harm to human body. Any health food must complete acute, subacute and chronic toxicology tests before it is declared. Probiotic health food must also ensure that it will not produce antibiotic resistance tests. Only when it is determined that it will not produce any acute, subacute or chronic harm can it be approved as a health food.

  Third, the law forbids health food to replace medicine.

  The Food Safety Law has clear provisions on health food, formula food for special medical purposes, health food and other special foods. It is clearly stipulated in the health food clause that health food cannot replace medicine. At the same time, the law also requires that the label of health food must be marked: "This product is irreplaceable."

  Fourth, health food can be used for patients, but it still cannot replace medicines.

  As mentioned earlier, health food is suitable for a certain (some) people with poor physiological function or sub-health. These people can choose health food with corresponding functions, such as probiotic health food, according to their feelings in daily life, such as frequent constipation, frequent diarrhea, fatigue and frequent colds, and some indicators found in routine physical examination reports and medical examinations deviate from normal values, but have not yet reached the disease state, such as high blood pressure, blood lipid, blood sugar and uric acid.

  As far as patients are concerned, they have serious physiological dysfunction, and when they are in a state of disease, they should seek medical treatment and medication. However, the disordered function in many diseases is consistent with the function that health food can regulate, and health food can be used under the guidance of a doctor. If antibiotics are used, it is often easy to cause intestinal flora disorder and even antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Probiotics can be used to adjust or rebuild the balance of intestinal flora. Nowadays, many doctors will recommend the use of probiotic health foods for intestinal diseases or antibiotics. Of course, when taking antibiotics, probiotics should be eaten after 2 hours to prevent being killed by antibiotics. I would like to remind you once again that patients need to consult a doctor or related professionals when eating probiotic health foods.

  Myth 2: Long-term consumption of probiotic health foods will lead to dependence.

  Tell you for sure: no.

  First, probiotics are not common bacteria in the whole life cycle of human body, "they will not stick to you and depend on you".

  As we all know, during the fetal period, that is, when the fetus is still in the mother’s stomach, the intestinal tract of the fetus is sterile. After birth, the baby obtains all kinds of bacteria from the outside, including the mother’s birth canal, nipple, milk, and the surrounding environment of the body, and quickly stays in the intestinal tract and grows and reproduces, which constitutes the intestinal flora, which is very important for life activities. Apart from helping digestion, it is also conducive to enhancing immunity, preventing infection, promoting development, and so on. The composition of infant intestinal flora is related to many factors, including the mode of production (natural delivery, cesarean section), the mode of breastfeeding (breast milk, formula milk), the time and type of complementary food addition, etc. With the increase of age, changes in diet, environment and other factors, the intestinal flora has also changed.

  In infancy, the proportion of beneficial bacteria in the intestine is high, such as Bifidobacterium. With the increase of age and non-dairy food, the types of intestinal flora are increasing, reaching hundreds, including beneficial bacteria, harmful bacteria and neutral bacteria (conditional pathogens).

  Usually used as probiotics, some strains exist in the intestine at some time, and some are not intestinal bacteria, such as Lactobacillus plantarum.

  Second, the role of probiotics is to promote the balance of intestinal flora. After stopping eating probiotics, symptoms reappear, which does not mean that probiotics are dependent.

  On the one hand, probiotics can produce beneficial metabolites, vitamins, etc., regulate the physiological function of the body, enhance immunity, etc., at the same time, it can inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria (pH, bacteriocin, etc.) and adjust or rebuild the balance of intestinal flora; Another important aspect is to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria, such as the production of butyric acid by probiotics, which can promote the growth of bifidobacteria in the intestine, repair digestive tract ulcers and become dominant bacteria in the intestine. These dominant bacteria, like probiotics, produce beneficial metabolites and inhibit harmful bacteria. This is the purpose of using probiotics, which I call "intestinal righting".

  Some people found that the symptoms reappeared after stopping taking probiotics, which was thought to be due to the dependence on probiotics after long-term use. Actually, it’s not. It’s that your intestinal microecology has not been restored to balance, or the unfavorable factors to your intestines have not been eliminated.

  There are many factors that are unfavorable to the intestinal tract, such as unrestrained entertainment (staying up late, playing cards, surfing the Internet), unreasonable diet (overeating, high-fat and high-sugar diet, excessive alcohol and tobacco, etc.), excessive stress (mental stress, irregular diet and rest), lack of exercise (sedentary), abrupt climate change (too fast alternating hot and cold), use of antibiotics, etc., all of which will destroy the intestinal microecological balance. As long as these factors are not eliminated, it is difficult to balance the intestinal flora. Therefore, it is also very important for the balance and health of intestinal flora to develop good living habits and laws, balance diet and combine work and rest.

  Third, there has been no research report on correlation dependence in the past hundred years.

  Intestine and its flora constitute an open microecosystem, and probiotics are a powerful assistant to maintain the stability of this system. Probiotics have been studied and applied for more than 100 years, but there is no report on the dependence caused by the loss of the reproductive ability of beneficial bacteria in the intestine due to long-term consumption of probiotic health foods.

What are the obvious advantages of the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system? Experts talk in detail

      CCTV News:After more than 90 years’ struggle in the Communist Party of China (CPC), especially 70 years’ exploration, practice and reform in New China, the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system has not only established "four pillars and eight pillars" such as fundamental system, basic system and important system, but also woven a strict "system network" through a series of specific systems, and has formed a scientific system with complete systems, scientific norms and effective operation, providing a strong institutional guarantee for promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity.

      The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee defined the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system as a scientific system. What are the obvious advantages of this scientific system? Many experts expressed their views in the column "On Tao".

      Moderator: We saw that this communique also summed up the remarkable advantages of the China system, which is called thirteen "persistences". Some people regard it as a manifestation of China’s confidence in the system. What do you think is the root cause of Professor Xin Ming’s confidence, and where did it come from?

      Xin Ming: Why do you feel confident? Two o’clock. First, Socialism with Chinese characteristics system is rooted in China, belongs to China’s own system, grows in China’s own historical and cultural soil, and comes out in China’s own social and historical practice.

      Second, this system has created remarkable practical and institutional effects. Attention, everyone, in the decision of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee, we used a sentence called "creating a miracle of rapid economic development and long-term social stability that is rare in the world". The history of western development shows that when a country’s economy develops rapidly, its society tends to be more active, it is in a period of transition, it is more turbulent, and even prone to chaos. But when a society can maintain long-term stability, it will inevitably appear a stagnant pool or stagnate, so these are two opposing goals. However, China society has achieved both with the development of our system for 70 years, which is remarkable.

      What is the greatest advantage of Socialism with Chinese characteristics system? The leader of the Communist Party of China (CPC). Everyone knows that we want to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and build a socialist modern power in an all-round way, which has never been done before. How can we ensure that we always move forward in the right direction without deviating from the direction and looking back? There must be a helmsman, and this helmsman is the Communist Party of China (CPC). China society is such a big country, how can we really unify everyone, let everyone think in one place and work hard in one place, and rely on what? There must be a handsome man who is in the middle of the army. What is this handsome man? That is, the Communist Party of China (CPC) is our Party Central Committee. The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in China society will not be achieved easily by beating gongs and drums, but will encounter many contradictions, difficulties, challenges and risks. In fact, the simplest thing is to feel that the international community is actually putting a lot of pressure on us. What should we do if we don’t flinch, hesitate or hesitate in the face of pressure? To have a backbone, the Communist Party of China (CPC) is our backbone, so the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC) is the biggest advantage of the system.

      Pay attention to these 13 advantages and tell them in different categories, because it makes it clear that when we talk about the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system, I hope that we can regard the 13 advantages as a whole, which is not a simple whole from 1+1+1+1+to 13. I hope that we can understand them as 1, 1, 1 and 1, and think about what these 13 1s are together, one, ten, hundred and thousand. The advantage of our Socialism with Chinese characteristics system is a trillion-dollar overall advantage. Only in this way can we achieve the two miracles that others can’t, and we can accomplish the tasks that others can’t. This is the advantage of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and it is precisely because of this advantage that we are confident and qualified.

      Long Yongtu: We usually talk a lot about these advantages, but the Fourth Plenary Session highlighted the most important advantage of the Party’s leadership. The other advantages were finally concentrated because of the advantage of the Party’s leadership. I think this is the greatest contribution of the Fourth Plenary Session, which makes us more clear about this article. If we recognize this article, I think we have found the most important point about the spirit of the Fourth Plenary Session.

      Xin Ming: There are fundamental systems, basic systems and important systems in Socialism with Chinese characteristics. In the past, the fundamental system was a fundamental political system, but the Fourth Plenary Session made it clear that the party’s leadership system is the fundamental leadership system of the country, that is, the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership runs through the other 12 systems, and it is also the fundamental system of China’s social state leadership.

The latest survey of McKinsey enterprise AI status: only 16% introduced deep learning; Most of them have no awareness of AI risks.

McKinsey’s report surveyed 2,395 corporate executives and described the current situation of corporate AI.

The conclusions of the report are divided into four aspects:

Firstly, an overview of the application of AI in enterprises is given. The report shows that at least half of the respondents have adopted AI, and its value in enterprises is that the increase in income is greater than the decrease in cost, but only 16% of the respondents have introduced deep learning.

Secondly, from the analysis of enterprise practice, why can some enterprises use AI to generate greater value? What are the characteristics of these enterprises? Practice is divided into six aspects: strategy; Talent and leadership; Methods; Tools and technologies; Data; AI deployment.

The third is to check the enterprise’s perception of AI risk, and find that most enterprises have no awareness of the possible risks of AI, and few enterprises manage the risks. Network security is still the only risk that most enterprises consider.

Fourth, the report found that the epidemic actually accelerated the application of AI by enterprises and the digital transformation process of enterprises.

Every year, McKinsey publishes a global survey of artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze the current situation of AI application in enterprises. This year’s survey was conducted from June 9 to June 19, 2020. McKinsey collected feedback from 2,395 participants from different regions, industries, company size, functional expertise and tenure.

Among them, 1,151 people said that their enterprises have adopted AI in at least one project and answered some questions about how to use AI. In order to adjust the difference of response rate, the data is weighted according to the contribution of each respondent country to global GDP.

The report shows that enterprises are increasingly using AI as a tool to create value, but this value is more reflected in increasing revenue than reducing costs. More than two-thirds of the respondents said that AI can increase revenue, mainly through functions such as inventory and parts optimization, pricing and promotion, customer service analysis, sales and demand forecasting. In addition, a small number of respondents from different industries attributed 20% or more of their organization’s earnings before interest and tax to AI.

In addition, the gap between companies that perform better in AI deployment and other companies is also widening. Better companies tend to have higher annual growth rate, better overall leadership and higher technical investment.

However, with the deepening of practice, the risks in AI application have gradually emerged, among which the most noteworthy risk is the lack of model interpretability. Although some enterprises have made some progress in reducing AI risks, most enterprises still have a long way to go.

The authors of the report include: Tara Balakrishnan, consultant of McKinsey Silicon Valley Office; Michael Chui, Partner of the San Francisco Office of McKinsey Global Institute; Bryce Hall, Deputy Partner of Washington DC Office; And Nicolaus Henke, a senior partner in the London office.

one

Overview of AI deployment:

Only 16% of enterprises introduce deep learning.

In terms of the adoption of AI, the McKinsey report shows that half of the respondents have used AI in at least one business. Last year, the acceptance of AI in different regions was roughly the same. This year, the acceptance of companies in Latin America and other developing countries was much smaller than that in other regions. The high-tech and telecommunications industries once again became the industries most willing to adopt AI, followed by automobiles and manufacturing.

From the internal business line of the company, the following figure shows the AI utilization rate of each department (unit:%):

As shown in the figure, the AI utilization rate of product and service development, service operation and marketing remains high, among which product and service development is the department that uses AI the most, and the AI utilization rate of new product development based on artificial intelligence is 24%, and product function optimization is 21%.

In terms of the impact of AI, more than two-thirds of the respondents said that using AI can bring revenue growth through functions such as inventory and parts optimization, pricing and promotion, customer service analysis, sales and demand; More than half of the enterprises said that they can use AI to reduce costs, mainly in talent management, customer service center automation, warehouse automation and so on.

In addition, the survey results show that some companies using AI are seeing value added at the enterprise level. 22% of the respondents said that in 2019, more than 5% of the earnings before interest and tax in their organizations were attributed to the use of artificial intelligence, and 48% of the respondents said that the proportion was less than 5%.

It is worth noting that most companies use AI to increase their income, but the cost reduction is not common. The following figure shows the revenue growth brought by enterprises using AI in 2018 and 2019 (unit:%):

As shown in the figure, among the three departments of marketing, strategy and corporate finance, and supply chain management, AI has the greatest impact on revenue.

This year, McKinsey asked about the use of deep learning for the first time, and found that only 16% of the respondents said that they had introduced deep learning into the pilot stage, mainly in the high-tech and telecommunications industries. In these two industries, 30% of the respondents said that they had embedded deep learning capabilities.

Michael Chui, a partner of McKinsey Global Institute, commented on the above information, "The method of using income to measure where AI can bring value to enterprises still applies. We will see more and more companies using AI to increase revenue rather than reduce costs-not because AI can’t reduce costs. "

two

How can enterprises get more value from AI?

In the practice of AI deployment, there are always some companies that have better effects than others, and the report calls them "high-performance companies".

So what are the advantages of companies that see the greatest value from the use of AI (think that 20% or more of earnings before interest and tax within the enterprise in 2019 can be attributed to the use of AI) compared with other companies? The report lists the following points:

Higher annual growth rate: The research results show that the companies that get more earnings before interest and tax contribution from AI have better annual growth rate than other companies. Respondents of high-performance companies are almost twice as likely as others to report a 10% or more increase in EBIT in 2019.

Better overall leadership: These companies have more efficient top management and are more likely to have an active and capable leader.

Higher investment in technology: Compared with their peers, they have invested more in AI and are more likely to increase their investment in AI in the next three years. Moreover, compared with buying third-party solutions, high-performance companies often have the ability to develop their own AI solutions and hire more relevant talents. And has established a standardized end-to-end platform for AI-related data science, data engineering and application development.

At the same time, McKinsey also focused on the practice of enterprises deploying AI this year to judge which practices can make enterprises get more value from AI. The number of enterprises concerned this year is about twice that of the past.

These practices are usually divided into six categories: strategy; Talent and leadership; Methods; Tools and technologies; Data; AI deployment.

As can be seen from the following table, taking "strategy" as an example, there are still some differences between high-performance enterprises and other enterprises. For example, in the evaluation standard that "the whole organization consistently adheres to the implementation process and is regarded as the key to obtaining value from artificial intelligence", the success rate of high-performance enterprises is 55%, while that of other enterprises is 29%.

"We found that companies with better performance often develop or deeply customize their artificial intelligence capabilities from within. Many executives now realize that AI usually works closely with business teams to meet real business needs and realize real value creation. Because, we see more and more enterprises training AI talents internally and launching training programs to improve the overall ability of the organization. " Bryce Hall, co-partner of McKinsey, commented on this.

Company executives who have made progress in the application of artificial intelligence also said in an interview with McKinsey that many leading practices are very important.

The head of analysis and insight of a global pharmaceutical company said, "We are investing heavily in talent training. If you have thousands of employees, you must consider how to make the whole workforce move forward. Investment has two directions: first, cooperate with a leading technology company to improve the data and artificial intelligence skills of employees; Second, a special course to improve the skills of senior managers and their understanding of artificial intelligence. "

three

Neglected AI risk perception

With the deepening of practice, the risks of AI have gradually emerged. However, the survey results show that only a few companies recognize the risks of AI, and fewer companies want to reduce the risks.

In terms of risk perception, most enterprises believe that network security, legal provisions and mode interpretability are AI-related risks, among which national security and personal safety have received more attention.

As the figure shows, network security is still the only risk that most interviewees consider relevant.

The situation of risk management is similar, but it is worth noting that more and more enterprises are beginning to realize and solve the problem of "model interpretability".

Roger Burkhardt, a partner in new york, said, "Due to the lack of interpretability, that is, people’s understanding of risks has improved.

Health care and financial services industries have the highest risk awareness due to stricter supervision, in addition, high-tech, commercial, legal and professional services industries are also in the leading position in risk awareness.

But overall, the results are still worrying. Although some risks, such as personal safety, are only applicable to specific industries, it is difficult to understand why many common risks have not been recognized by more respondents.

For example, fairness should be one of the concerns of any enterprise in any industry. What is particularly surprising is that people are concerned about racial prejudice and other discriminatory treatments (such as age discrimination in job advertisements on social media), but they have not paid attention to and alleviated the prejudice that AI may produce. "

Lack of model interpretability is a risk in almost every industry, especially in the fields of health care and finance. However, in addition to its own risks, interpretability may also bring another risk: lack of AI applications, leading to wasted investment and falling behind competitors. "

Some enterprises have also made targeted measures. In an interview with McKinsey, the director of artificial intelligence transformation of a global material manufacturer pointed out that it is almost impossible for front-line workers to adopt AI without an interpretable model. Workers need to be able to trust AI’s judgment, not only to take the most effective action, but also for their personal safety.

When AI suggests running a potentially dangerous heavy equipment in some way, the staff need to be sure that the reasons behind the decision are reliable and safe. This material manufacturer uses the simplest and most transparent model to realize interpretability, which to a great extent makes workers confident in using new artificial intelligence applications.

The company also improved its operation through AI and analysis measures, which increased its profit before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization by 15%.

four

Epidemic situation accelerates AI application

Although epidemic prevention measures have brought economic challenges to many companies, those companies that can see the greatest value of AI are still increasing their technical investment. According to the report, most respondents from high-performance companies said that their investment in AI has increased, mainly in the automobile, assembly, health care services, pharmaceuticals and medical products industries.

As shown in the figure, during the epidemic, most outstanding companies increased their investment in AI, but the changes in different industries were different.

However, the more AI technology is deployed, the more you can feel its risks. Many high-performance companies say that their AI models are particularly fragile in marketing, sales, product development and service operation.

As shown in the figure, since the epidemic, the deployment of AI model in marketing and sales business has not performed well.

There are also some companies that have used AI to find new growth points under the pressure of the epidemic. As Nicolaus Henke, senior partner of McKinsey, said, "The epidemic has rapidly shifted consumers and businesses to digital channels. During the epidemic, enterprises in various industries expanded artificial intelligence much faster than expected. Many enterprises cooperate with their analysis teams to update demand patterns, reconsider supply chains, build scenario plans around resource requirements, and realize automation in factories and other industrial environments.

For example, a global pharmaceutical company linked multiple epidemic scenarios, established a view of product supply and demand by country, and integrated it into its regular financial and operational planning process. In some cases, the short-term analysis solutions of enterprises are not very accurate, but executives realize that these solutions are’ good enough’ compared with other methods.

Many enterprises have turned to longer-term opportunities. For example, with more and more data from digital channels, AI-based system recommendation can provide better customer experience, more personalized content and automated digital customer service.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the epidemic has prompted people to increase their investment in AI. However, companies that do not perform well in the AI field obviously do not invest so much money, and there is a risk of further falling behind the leaders. "

This survey also found many companies that invested in AI in the epidemic. For example, the epidemic has accelerated the integration of online and offline service data of banks. Based on these data, a global bank launched an intelligent chat robot to provide customers with contactless and more targeted services.

"The epidemic has become an accelerator and catalyst for AI application and digital transformation. For those enterprises that have deployed AI in advance, the epidemic can promote the faster, more accurate and more reliable landing of AI projects. In the future, enterprises will become more and more dependent on the capabilities brought by AI." An analyst of a large pharmaceutical company said in an interview with McKinsey.

Holography: The Future of 3D Display

Written by | Yan Yue (Ph.D., Chinese University of Hong Kong)

Physicist Dennis Gabor was arrested for inventingHolographyHe was awarded the 1971 Nobel Prize in Physics.Holography is a technology that can record the wavefront (including its amplitude and phase) and reconstruct it. It mainly uses the diffraction of light to produce virtual three-dimensional images.

Pioneers have long predicted that holography is the ultimate way to achieve perfect 3D display, because holography is the only way to meet the optical requirements of human visual system. For many years, researchers have been working hard to achieve this goal.

Recently, fromUniversity of Arizona School of Optical Sciences, USAofPierre-Alexandre BlancheProfessor in the latest issue ofLight: Advanced ManufacturingPublish an article entitled ""Holography, and the future of 3D display"ofSummary article.

First of all, it explains why it is an arduous challenge to realize holographic 3D display at present.

Then, starting from the human visual system, the mainstream 3D display technology and its characteristics are introduced.

Then, focusing on holographic 3D display, the new progress of real-time holographic computing using machine learning and neural network algorithm is summarized.

Then, the holographic data transmission model and data compression algorithm are discussed.

Finally, the hardware generation method of holographic data and its progress are introduced.

1. Why is holographic 3D display a formidable challenge?

In order to describe the difficulty of holographic 3D display intuitively, the author usesData transmission rate (bit rate, b/s)As a measure.

Assuming that a holographic color display with 45 visual field, 60Hz refresh rate, 8-bit resolution and screen size of 50cm×50cm is realized, the required bit rate is about 3× 10b/s when the light source is 500nm.

Figure 1 shows the comparison of data rates (in chronological order of development) required by holography and other communication technologies.

The rocker signal in 1798 can transmit about 2~3 symbols per minute, about 0.4 bit/s.

In the 1840s, telegrams transmitted in Morse code became popular, about 100 b/s.

In 1876, the appearance of telephone began to transmit sound signals, and the transmission rate was 64 KB/s.

Black-and-white TV, which appeared in the 1940s, can display 29.97 frames /s video with a transmission rate of 26 MB/s..

The transmission rate of color TV, which appeared in 1950s, has tripled to 78mb/s..

Digital video began to appear in 1990s, and the required rate of HDTV 720p reached 1.33 GB/s..

In the 2010s, the transmission rate of 4K HDTV 2160p was 12.7 GB/s..

The latest 8K HD requires 47.8Gb/s transmission. (Note: the above required transmission rate is the amount of data before compression) And the bit rate of holographic 3D color display is 60,000 times that of 8K HD, so the difficulty of realizing holographic 3D display is obvious.

Figure 1: The Road to Holography: Over time, the bit rate required by different communication systems.

According to the prediction of the development time axis in Figure 1, it will be about to realize the commercial holographic 3D display.In 2100.

The development trajectory may not be unchangeable, and all this depends on the continuous efforts of human beings. Although it is very difficult to realize, holography is still considered as the ultimate technology to realize 3D display. This is because holography is the only method that can meet the optical requirements of human visual system at present.

Second, human vision and 3D display

Understanding how the human visual system perceives 3D information is very important for developing 3D display.

The human visual system perceives depth from a large number of information obtained from the outside, and most of the important depth perception elements are two-dimensional information, includingShading+shadowing, perspective, relative size, occlusion and ambiguity..

Figure 2 below shows three balls on a two-dimensional plane, but it contains the two-dimensional depth perception elements listed above. After these two-dimensional depth perception elements pass through the human visual system, we will think that they are balls in three-dimensional space. Therefore, whether it is painting, photo or image, as long as the above two-dimensional depth perception elements are implanted, our human eyes will have a three-dimensional perception effect, otherwise the optical image illusion will occur. Therefore, the 3D display system needs to ensure the above two-dimensional depth perception factors first, and then add and solve other three-dimensional perception factors, such as stereoscopic parallax, motion inspection and visual convergence conflict (VAC) and so on.

Figure 2: Two-dimensional depth perception elements and their influence on depth perception

Based on the above information, the author discusses several main 3D display technologies and their characteristics:

1. Based on Stereo disparity:It is common in 3D cinemas now, and needs to wear 3D glasses, and there is a VAC.

2. Autostereoscopy 3D display:Commonly used lens array to realize three-dimensional imaging of light field; Users need to be fixed in a specific location, and there is a VAC.

3. Based on Motion Parallax (Multiview):It is equivalent to the user’s movable naked-eye 3D, with VAC, and the required bit rate is low, about 10 GB/s, which is also the focus of current research.

4. volumetric displays:Light is emitted, scattered and illuminated through a predefined three-dimensional space to display a three-dimensional image. Images are suspended in the air, giving people a great visual impact. However, there is occlusion problem and the imaging volume is limited.

These 3D display technologies have their own advantages and disadvantages and their applicable application scenarios, and many of them are limited by the human visual system and cannot be solved. However, these technologies will continue to move forward in the direction of more comfortable and better display effect for users before the final holography matures.

Third, holographic 3D display

Holography has been proved to be the only 3D display technology that can meet all the requirements of human visual system. But its challenge is enormous, mainly from three aspects:

1. Holographic 3D information computation.

The appearance of Computed Generated Holograms, CGH) has greatly promoted the development of holographic computing. The arbitrary image generate by that phase plate at a specific diffraction distance is calculated by use Kirchhoff and Feinier diffraction theory. But 10¹⁵The data bit rate requirement of b/s level (720p video) makes the calculation huge and time-consuming. This requires a more concise holographic computing algorithm, and the corresponding specific hardware platform for holographic computing is also very necessary.

2. Holographic information transmission (transmission)

Because of the huge data transmission demand, it is very important to establish an effective data transmission network model and a distortion-free diffraction data compression algorithm.

3. Holographic information alternation generation (reproduction)

In order to generate high-quality holographic graphics, taking the bit rate of 3× 10b/s as an example, it takes about 230,000 4K spatial light modulators (SLM) and 15,000 computers to process the corresponding data. These absurd numbers once again show the difficulty of realizing holographic 3D display. Holographic data generation devices and methods can generally be divided into the following categories:

I. liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS SLM):The resolution is high, but the refresh rate of liquid crystal is low.

Ii. microelectromechanical systems (MEMS):Fast refresh rate and high integration, but the current device efficiency is low. Texas Instruments is in the leading position, and its next-generation high-efficiency phase modulator is also being developed.

Iii. developing holographic materials that can be refreshed in real time;Such as photorefractive polymers and acousto-optic materials.

Iv. phase array photonic integrated chip:Micro-nano scale phase array is composed of a series of optical waveguides and realizes large-scale integration of wafer size. As shown in fig. 3, these phase arrays change their phases through on-chip acousto-optic or thermo-optic modulators, and are coupled out by gratings. Its advantages are high speed, easy phase control and large-scale integration on chip. The disadvantage is that the phase resolution is low, which leads to a large diffraction sidelobe.

Figure 3: Large Scale Integrated Phase Array

At present, no technology can meet the requirements of high resolution, high data generation and high integration at the same time.

Holography is still considered as the final technology to realize ideal 3D display. Although there is no mature and perfect solution at present, it cannot hide the great contribution people have made to it. Scientists are turning this technology into reality as never before.

What’s new in Spring Festival travel rush in 2023? How to ensure travel? Here comes the plan.

  Today (December 27th), the State Council issued the "Overall Work Plan for Prevention and Control of Epidemic Situation in Spring Festival travel rush and Transportation Service Guarantee in 2023". In 2023, the comprehensive transportation of Spring Festival travel rush will start on January 7th and end on February 15th, with a total of 40 days.

  1. What are the new situations and changes in Spring Festival travel rush in 2023?

  With the further optimization of epidemic prevention and control policies, cross-regional personnel mobility will be accelerated. In 2023, the passenger flow of comprehensive transportation in Spring Festival travel rush will rebound from the low level, and the total passenger flow may increase substantially; Second, the transportation of key materials such as energy and grain and materials such as medical care and people’s livelihood is arduous; Third, during the period of Spring Festival travel rush, personnel flow, freight logistics activities are intensive, personnel cross-activities are frequent, and the risk of infection of transportation employees is high; Fourth, the long-term low-load operation of transportation has increased the security risks of facilities, equipment and personnel. If management is not in place, transportation safety production accidents may be prone to occur frequently.

  The "Work Plan" requires that people’s governments at all levels and relevant departments must fully understand the new situation and new tasks faced by comprehensive transportation Spring Festival travel rush in 2023, firmly establish the bottom line thinking, comprehensively improve their ideological understanding, comprehensively strengthen organizational leadership, coordinate and dispatch resources and forces in all aspects, solidly promote the prevention and control of epidemic situation in comprehensive transportation Spring Festival travel rush and ensure transportation services, and put the guarantee of smooth transportation logistics in a more prominent position, with the greatest capacity, best state and best service. Do everything possible to ensure the efficient and smooth transportation of key materials such as energy and grain, and materials such as medical care and people’s livelihood, and do everything possible to get through the whole chain and all links of passenger travel from the starting point to the end point to ensure the safe departure and smooth return of passengers.

  Second, take multiple measures to ensure orderly peak travel.

  (1) Optimize the public travel policy environment. All localities should strictly implement the relevant policies and regulations of the joint prevention and control mechanism in the State Council, and scientifically and accurately implement the optimization measures of epidemic prevention and control and the measures of "Class B and Class B management". No more negative certificates and health codes for nucleic acid testing, no more landing inspection and no more temperature measurement for passengers. Passenger service shall not be suspended or restricted at will, and normal traffic of vehicles and ships shall not be restricted at will. It is strictly prohibited to illegally set up all kinds of check card points on the highway, intercept vehicles at will, and speed up the resumption of suspended passenger service. All localities can take appropriate temporary measures to restrict the flow of people in accordance with the law, and guide the public to avoid traveling at the peak of the epidemic as much as possible. Cities that implement the motor vehicle tail number restriction policy can fully consider the people’s needs for safe and convenient travel, and study the measures to suspend the motor vehicle tail number restriction in stages during the period of Spring Festival travel rush.

  (two) to ensure that relatives go home for the New Year and return to work in an orderly manner. All localities should open information consultation channels through telephone, Internet, Weibo, WeChat, client and other means, so as to facilitate relatives to inquire about relevant prevention and control information in time and arrange their trips home for the New Year and return to work in advance. Combined with the concentrated period of visiting relatives’ going home for the New Year and returning to work, the transportation service and support capacity will be improved by increasing transportation capacity, encrypting transportation shifts, strengthening the connection between urban and rural areas, adding customized passenger lines, and operating chartered buses, so as to smooth the "last mile" of returning home and returning to work. All localities can explore the implementation of flexible vacation and off-peak vacation policies to reduce the pressure on the public to concentrate on travel. The education department should guide primary and secondary schools and kindergartens to further optimize epidemic prevention and control measures. If students and their roommates have foreign trips, it will not affect students’ normal schooling.

  (three) to ensure the orderly return of migrant workers to their hometowns. All localities should carry out the situation of migrant workers returning to their hometowns and prepare for their return to their hometowns in an orderly manner. The centralized export and import places of migrant workers should strengthen cohesion and cooperation, guide parks, enterprises and communities (villages) to strengthen the health monitoring and humanistic care of migrant workers, and the relevant departments at the destination should work together to guide and ensure the safe and healthy travel of migrant workers returning home. If the demand for returning home to work is relatively concentrated and qualified, it can be combined with the actual organization of "point-to-point" transportation such as chartered cars, special trains (cars) and charter flights for migrant workers.

  (four) to ensure that college students leave school and return to school at the wrong peak. All localities should make unified arrangements in accordance with the territorial joint prevention and control mechanism, further optimize the prevention and control of epidemic situation on campus and the arrangement of teaching plans, reasonably determine the time of winter vacation, and arrange to start school in spring to avoid peaks and peaks. In principle, colleges and universities should avoid starting school during Spring Festival travel rush as much as possible; If it is really necessary to start school during the period of Spring Festival travel rush, we should adhere to the principle of "one place, one case", "one school, one policy" and "one level, one policy" to organize the start of school and return to school, and try to avoid the peak period of return passenger flow in Spring Festival travel rush. All localities should comprehensively and accurately grasp the transportation needs of local college students who leave school on holiday and return to school. If the travel needs of leaving school and returning to school are relatively concentrated and qualified, they can organize "point-to-point" transportation such as student chartered cars, special trains (cars) and charter flights.

  (five) to ensure that self-driving personnel travel in an orderly way. All localities should explore the use of mobile phone signaling, map services, search engines, hotel reservations in scenic spots and other data information, further strengthen the analysis of big data, and seriously study the situation of people’s self-driving travel during Spring Festival travel rush. Integrate the data of various traffic factors, strengthen the monitoring of trunk road network and urban road operation, pay close attention to the traffic flow of road networks around inter-provincial borders, popular cities and key scenic spots, timely release information on road conditions and congested slow-moving sections, and guide self-driving personnel to reasonably choose travel routes, times and destinations to avoid peak travel. Strengthen the operation and management of the expressway service area, do a good job in refueling, charging, dining, toilet and other services in the service area, and ensure that the environment is clean and tidy and the service is convenient and efficient.

  (6) Ensure the orderly flow of tourists. All localities should release cultural tourism consumption policies during the Spring Festival in advance, and strictly implement the optimized epidemic prevention and control measures for the cultural tourism industry. Strengthen data monitoring, share information such as the scale and capacity of tourists in a timely manner, and coordinate the connection between transportation and tourism and the allocation of capacity. In view of large-scale epidemic infection, bad weather, safety accidents, emergencies, etc., formulate and improve emergency plans for stranded tourists, and do a good job in timely and orderly evacuation of stranded tourists.

  (seven) to ensure the safe and convenient travel of people in rural areas. In order to meet the needs of concentrated travel such as visiting relatives and friends and going to the market in rural areas, we will increase the rural transportation service guarantee by encrypting the service frequency of urban and rural public transport and rural passenger transport lines, extending operating hours, running the market and increasing the appointment response service. Focus on rural passenger transport routes, passenger stations, ferries and other key areas, strengthen the input of law enforcement forces, further promote the "internet plus" supervision, intensify the investigation and punishment of illegal operations such as illegal operations, strengthen traffic safety warning tips, promptly persuade and correct unlicensed, drunk driving, overcrowded passengers, illegal manned behavior, etc., and improve the rural passenger transport safety guarantee capacity.

  (eight) to ensure that the masses travel short distances during the "Double Festival" period. All localities should, in view of the substantial increase in short-distance passenger flow that may occur during the New Year’s Day and Spring Festival holidays, strengthen overall planning of work, strengthen the delivery of transportation capacity, scientifically arrange flights, and fully protect the travel needs of the people. Guide road passenger transport operators to open customized passenger lines directly to airports, railway stations, tourist attractions, large communities, etc. in a timely manner, and support customized passenger vehicles to flexibly and regularly stop in areas where passenger flow is concentrated. According to the needs, we will actively open convenient bus lines such as night bus, customized bus, student special line and ferry bus to meet the travel needs of passengers at night and in specific sections.

  Third, how to improve the operational efficiency of transportation logistics

  (1) Ensure the continuous and stable operation of transportation and logistics. Give full play to the role of the working mechanism of logistics at all levels, and strictly implement the optimization policy of transportation logistics. We will continue to implement systems such as dynamic monitoring, supervision and dispatch, supervision and transfer, 7×24-hour duty, one-on-one coordination, information disclosure and notification of typical problems to ensure smooth and efficient transportation and logistics. Incorporate transportation logistics practitioners into the "white list" management. No longer check the negative nucleic acid test certificates and health codes of truck drivers and crew members, and no longer carry out landing inspection for cross-regional mobile truck drivers. It is strictly forbidden to shut down the transportation and logistics infrastructure without authorization, and it is strictly forbidden to restrict transportation services in any form. Key ports, airports, railway freight stations, logistics parks, postal express distribution centers, and operation and management units such as navigation channels, navigation structure, and pilotage institutions should improve and perfect emergency plans, establish front-line personnel reserve teams, and if necessary, implement a post rotation system for closed management to ensure the stable operation of key logistics hubs in emergencies.

  (two) to ensure the smooth and orderly transportation of key materials such as energy and grain. All localities should work closely together, strengthen capacity scheduling, make emergency preparations, and make every effort to ensure the efficient operation of trunk transportation, collection and distribution of key materials such as energy, grain, agricultural machinery and agricultural materials this winter and next spring. Strengthen the on-site management of key railway lines, focus on control and priority protection, and ensure smooth coal transportation channels such as Daqin, Tangbao, Wari, Haoji, Houyue and Shitai. Give full play to the role of 11 main roads in 7 provinces and regions, strengthen the joint guarantee of road services for key materials transportation, resolutely prevent long-term and large-scale vehicle congestion, and set up special roads for coal transportation at expressway toll stations when necessary. Relying on Qinhuangdao Port and other northern coal "launching ports", we will implement the "four priorities" safeguard measures for coal and LNG waterway transportation, strengthen ship-shore connection and emergency transportation support, and ensure the smooth flow of waterway transportation hubs and large passages.

  (three) to ensure the efficient and orderly transportation of medical and livelihood materials. All localities should further strengthen the docking of supply and demand, strengthen the organization and dispatch, do their best to provide priority and convenient access services for medical materials such as vaccines, antigen detection reagents, medicines and masks in Covid-19, and transportation vehicles for daily necessities such as vegetables, fruits, meat and poultry, eggs and milk, strictly implement the "green channel" policy for the transportation of fresh agricultural products, and ensure free and convenient access for vehicles legally loaded with fresh agricultural products in the unified national catalogue and Covid-19 vaccine cargo transportation vehicles. We will make every effort to smooth the "microcirculation" at the end of postal express delivery and urban and rural distribution, and effectively meet the needs of the people for online shopping for medical materials and production and daily necessities. It is necessary to adhere to the principle of "being prepared rather than being used, not being available without being prepared", strengthen emergency preparedness in view of extreme situations such as large-scale epidemic infection, bad weather and serious congestion, and make overall plans to ensure the transportation of medical materials and people’s production and living materials under emergency conditions.

  (4) Strengthen the service guarantee for transportation and logistics employees. All localities should strengthen the living guarantee for truck drivers, couriers and crew members. If they are stranded, they should provide them with necessary basic living services such as drinking water, dining, going to the toilet and basic medical assistance services, and resolutely avoid the difficulties of transportation and logistics employees due to inadequate service guarantee. If it is really necessary to close some areas of expressways and water service areas, it is necessary to ensure the normal operation of basic public service functions such as refueling and going to the toilet. It is strictly forbidden to suspend or refuse to change the crew of international navigation ships at will, so as to ensure the smooth supply chain of international maritime logistics and the legitimate rights and interests of crew members.

  Fourth, scientifically and accurately prevent and control the epidemic situation in Spring Festival travel rush

  (a) continue to optimize the implementation of Spring Festival travel rush epidemic prevention and control measures. To formulate and implement guidelines for the prevention and control of novel coronavirus infection in Spring Festival travel rush. All localities should fully implement the optimization measures of epidemic prevention and control and the measures of "Class B and B management", conscientiously implement the epidemic prevention and control policies in the fields of railways, highways, waterways, civil aviation and postal express delivery, and continue to do a good job in cleaning, disinfection, ventilation and other work in public areas of window units such as passenger stations and highway service areas. Conditional highway service areas can be set up with parking areas for vehicles and rest areas for drivers and passengers to provide drinking water, toilet and rest services for people with fever and other symptoms.

  (2) Strictly protect employees. Supervise and urge the implementation of the relevant prevention and control requirements of railway, highway, waterway, civil aviation, postal express and other transportation employees, effectively guarantee the supply of epidemic prevention articles such as masks and disinfection products, and supervise and urge personal protection, vaccination and health monitoring. Organize front-line employees in transportation to carry out health monitoring and implement symptom management. Practitioners should minimize social contact, advocate "two points and one line" life, implement epidemic-related reporting requirements, and carry out antigen or nucleic acid testing if necessary if symptoms such as fever occur. In principle, personnel with fever and other symptoms are not arranged to engage in transportation activities; For those who have symptoms for more than 7 days or the symptoms disappear, they can resume the work of relevant employees under strict personal protection, in which the principle of strict prudence should be adhered to for drivers to ensure that their physical condition is qualified for safe driving requirements.

  (3) Strengthen the publicity and guidance of passengers’ healthy and rational travel. All localities should carry out extensive publicity to guide the public to travel rationally and at wrong peaks during their stay in Spring Festival travel rush; Guide the public to continuously improve their awareness of protection and be the first responsible person for their own health, especially the elderly with basic diseases, pregnant women and children, to travel healthily and rationally and reduce the risk of infection for themselves and their families. Guide travelers to strengthen personal health monitoring during Spring Festival travel rush, and avoid taking public transport when symptoms such as fever appear. Passengers wear masks during the whole journey, actively reduce gathering, adhere to good hygiene habits such as washing hands frequently, coughing etiquette and keeping interpersonal distance.

  (4) Effectively handling sudden epidemic situations. All localities should improve the emergency plan and disposal measures for sudden large-scale epidemic situation of employees in key hub stations, and carry out emergency response drills in a targeted manner. When Covid-19-infected persons appear in the transportation business service unit, the workplace is not closed and controlled, and it is not isolated from the personnel in the workplace. In case of sudden large-scale epidemic, emergency response should be implemented scientifically according to emergency plans and disposal measures, and reserve teams for key posts should be activated in time, and reserve forces should be dispatched in time to ensure that key hub stations will not be shut down, important transport corridors and line services will not be interrupted, and key materials will not be transported continuously during Spring Festival travel rush.

  V. Safety Supervision and Emergency Disposal in Spring Festival travel rush
