　　Recently, official website, the US Department of Commerce, issued a statement saying that the special relevant treatment for Hong Kong has been cancelled, including the suspension of export license exemption, and the differential treatment is being evaluated, while the export policy of related technologies to Hong Kong is being adjusted. These changes mean that the United States began to restrict its exports to Hong Kong.

　　Under the background of the COVID-19 epidemic, the actions of the US Department of Commerce are quite damaging to the global industrial chain system. The epidemic is wrapped in trade protectionism and continues to impact the global industrial chain system, and the risk of industrial chain interruption is accumulating.

　　Compared with the global economic recession is affected by short-term external events, the impact of the industrial chain is more worrying, because the destruction of the global industrial chain system is more like a long-term and more difficult to recover.

　　The industrial chain system has been destroyed, and the epidemic situation is only a fuse, but this fuse may evolve into a major blow to the globalization process. Today, globalization has a history of 600 years. Will it end because of this epidemic?

　　A brief history of globalization

　　Globalization originated from the great geographical discovery. During the 600 years from the 15th century to the present, globalization has been affected and hindered in various ways, but the overall trend is deepening.

　　1. Great geographical discovery

　　From the 15th century to the 17th century, European fleets appeared in the oceans all over the world, looking for new trade routes and trading partners to develop Europe’s nascent capitalism.

　　Sailors led by Columbus and da Gama have opened up many new sea routes, and also created the "era of great navigation", which is also called "geographical discovery" in history.

　　After the era of great navigation, colonialism and free trade began to appear, and globalization experienced intermittent development, reaching its peak in the 1910s, but then came World War I, when the process of globalization was paused, and then fascism appeared, which led to World War II.

　　2. Globalization after World War II

　　After World War II, many international organizations, such as GATT, have greatly reduced the barriers to international trade, especially the World Trade Organization, which evolved from GATT in 1995, has obviously accelerated the process of free trade and globalization in the past 30 years.

　　After stagflation and local wars in 1980s, globalization began to exert its strength in 1990s and continued until the global financial crisis in 2008. During this period, the proportion of global trade in the global economy increased from less than 15% to nearly 26%.

　　In 2008, the global financial crisis had a direct impact on global trade, which made countries start to consider the chain reaction of risk events brought by global contact again. However, this impact was not fatal to globalization, and trade remained large in the following years.

　　In addition to trade in goods and services, international capital flows are also a major manifestation of globalization. The core member and leader of the WTO is the United States. In fact, the United States has indeed exported dollars and economic hegemony through globalization, and gained a lot of benefits. In particular, American multinational companies have made use of low-cost production factors to produce and sell nearby all over the world and made a lot of profits.

　　Similar to international trade, the scale of foreign direct investment in countries around the world has been increasing since the 1990s. Despite the impact of events such as the bursting of the Internet bubble, the September 11th incident and the global financial crisis, the general trend of increasing capital flows has not changed.

　　3. Globalization and China’s Reform and Opening-up.

　　The accelerated globalization in recent decades has just matched the process of reform and opening up in China. China’s economic growth has experienced a rare high-speed growth in human history.

　　After the reform and opening up, China actively integrated into the global free trade system led by the United States, and continued to enhance its economic strength through the strategies of "export orientation" and "import substitution". At that time, the United States was busy with the cold war with the Soviet Union. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, it was busy exporting political, military and economic hegemony, cleaning up the "backyard" of South America, fighting two Gulf wars and catching bin Laden everywhere, which made it "too busy to look east" and its attitude towards China’s integration into the global economy was open and welcome.

　　In the process of integrating into the free trade system, China’s trade scale has continued to grow, even reaching 4.62 trillion US dollars in 2018, surpassing the United States (4.28 trillion US dollars) to become the world’s largest trading country, which is quite a bit like "doing something for another". It should be said that China may be one of the countries that have benefited most from globalization in recent decades.

　　Epidemic situation impacts trade and industrial chain.

　　Under the epidemic, production activities in many places around the world stagnated, which directly hit trade. Since March, the increase in unemployment, the decrease in income and the suspension of production activities have caused the trade between the United States and the European Union to shrink significantly. Even Japan, which has done a good job in epidemic prevention and control, has experienced a relatively obvious decline.

　　In the case of global recession and trade contraction, although China’s current domestic demand accounts for a larger proportion, it can resist the greater impact of external demand, but it is still inevitably impacted in both demand and industrial chain. What is even more worrying is that the contraction of foreign trade has caused a large number of enterprises in the foreign trade field, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, to go bankrupt and potential unemployment.

　　From the historical data, the fluctuation of China’s export growth is highly consistent with the fluctuation of GDP growth. According to statistics, if the global economic growth rate drops by 1 percentage point, China’s export growth rate will drop by 6-8 percentage points. Such a large-scale contraction of export business will inevitably lead to the contraction and even bankruptcy of a large number of foreign trade enterprises.

　　Because China and the global industrial chain system have formed a criss-crossing deep connection, the blow to the industrial chain also involves a very wide range of industries in China. In a large number of industries (especially automobile industry and electronics industry), China is an exporter of other countries in some links, but in other links, China is an importer of other countries. The stagnation of one link may affect the normal production of the whole industry.

　　Here, give an example of my personal experience to illustrate:

　　Once, the author took Didi, talked with the driver’s master, and learned that he was a builder working in a nearby construction site. He used to use his spare time to start Didi, but after the epidemic came, the construction site stopped working and he began to start Didi full-time.

　　He said that the shutdown was not due to the fact that it was not allowed to resume work at home, but because a foreign key device manufacturer stopped working. Without this device, the construction process had to be suspended.

　　This subverts the author’s understanding of the degree of integration of the global industrial chain, because when it comes to international trade, it is often not associated with the construction industry, but even the construction industry is now deeply bound to the global industrial chain.

　　In addition, there are two factors that aggravate this influence:

　　First, in the process of globalization, China is more and more deeply involved in the transmission process of global value chain. China’s participation in global value chains has reached 62% in 2017. Therefore, all kinds of raw materials and energy are cut off due to the global epidemic, which has also brought a big impact to China’s industrial chain.

　　Second, China is downstream in the global value chain. The upstream degree of China in the global value chain is 1%, far lower than the 4% of open economies and 29% of the United States (in 2017). The interruption of import supply chain of upstream products, especially energy and raw materials, will have a great impact on some industries in China.

　　From the import data over the years, it can be found that the import scale of raw materials, energy and primary products in China shows an overall upward trend, and a large number of export products in China are manufactured goods. It can be seen that China’s trade field is highly dependent on foreign upstream products, and the risk of "grain shortage" in China’s industrial production caused by supply shortage is still relatively high.

　　Behind the impact of industrial chain: anti-globalization

　　The impact of industrial chain not only comes from external events such as epidemic situation, but also is the result of intensified anti-globalization in recent years.

　　1, the epidemic is the fuse.

　　In January and February, after China’s production activities stopped due to the epidemic, the European and American economies were greatly affected. The supply of intermediate products and materials needed for production activities in many countries was interrupted, and more seriously, the supply of final consumer goods was interrupted, which affected the basic consumption of residents.

　　In March and April, European and American countries urgently needed masks, protective clothing, ventilators and other anti-epidemic materials, but suddenly found that not only did they not have the production capacity of ventilators, but even the simplest masks could not be produced, and finally they had to rely on China for export, which not only led to an increase in prices, but also failed to guarantee the supply in time. At this time, European and American countries were alert: "You can’t put eggs in the basket of China".

　　2. Trade protectionism is on the rise

　　In recent years, in developed countries, due to their own reasons, such as the solidification of social class and the widening gap between the rich and the poor, most ordinary people have not enjoyed the benefits brought by globalization, and more benefits have been divided by large industrial groups and multinational companies.

　　In order to safeguard the interests of the people, leaders of many countries have opposed free trade and global industrial division of labor, which has led to the rise of populism and trade protectionism, and also the phenomenon of anti-globalization. The global epidemic will inevitably lead to more intensified internal contradictions and increased social instability in Europe and the United States. This will in turn stimulate populism and trade protectionism, further aggravating the degree of anti-globalization. China has gained great benefits from globalization after its accession to the WTO, and these benefits may be reduced by the above changes in the future.

　　How serious will the industrial chain impact be?

　　Generally speaking, there are three forms of industrial chain impact: manufacturing industry moves to emerging markets such as India and Southeast Asia; The manufacturing industry in developed countries has returned and the industrial chain has been localized; Western countries’ restrictions on China’s imports and exports in certain fields.

　　However, these three forms of shocks either have conditions that do not fully meet the reality, or have corresponding countermeasures. In the long run, China still has great opportunities and space to meet these challenges.

　　1. Manufacturing industry moves out.

　　Now it seems that the destination of manufacturing migration is nothing more than India, Vietnam and other markets. However, there are more or less three fatal problems in these markets: First, although the labor cost is low, the scale and quality of the labor force cannot be compared with China in the short term, the economies of scale are not obvious, and the production efficiency is not high; Second, poor infrastructure conditions, poor transportation, production equipment and other facilities, production quality can not be guaranteed; Third, the lack of producer services can not provide high-quality supporting services for the manufacturing industry. Therefore, in the short term, these countries cannot effectively undertake large-scale manufacturing.

　　2. The return of manufacturing industry in developed countries.

　　After the outbreak, Japan plans to allocate 243.5 billion yen from the economic stimulus plan to adjust its production line in China, of which 220 billion yen will be used to help Japanese enterprises move their production lines back to China.

　　Developed countries, such as the United States, have been calling on their manufacturing enterprises to move back, but the effect is not very satisfactory. Because this kind of relocation faces two problems: first, because foreign capital has been invested in China, the cost of relocation is very large. Of course, this "moving fee" enterprise is unwilling to bear, and even the government will feel great financial pressure; Second, the cost and benefit evaluation often does not support relocation. Under the huge relocation cost, the cost of local manpower and supporting services after relocation is obviously higher than that of China, and the products produced are sold to China, and there is an extra tariff out of thin air, which is not cost-effective.

　　In addition, for China, after the economy developed to a certain level, the proportion of service industry increased, while the proportion of manufacturing industry decreased, and the overall impact brought by the relocation of manufacturing industry was also discounted.

　　3. Western countries’ restrictions on China’s imports and exports in certain fields.

　　This may be the most intractable problem facing China in the short term, and the US Department of Commerce’s actions against Hong Kong fall into this category. However, China has a relatively complete industrial system, which can resist this risk to some extent.

　　In the United Nations industrial classification, all industries can be divided into 39 industrial categories, 191 medium categories and 525 subcategories. China has 39 industrial categories, 191 middle categories and 525 sub-categories, making it the only country in the world with all the industrial categories listed in the United Nations Industrial Classification, and all the industrial categories listed in the United Nations Industrial Classification can be found in China. Among more than 500 major industrial products announced by the United Nations, China ranks first in the world in terms of output of about 220 kinds.

　　Therefore, it is preliminarily judged that the impact of global supply chain interruption on China’s industrial production can be controlled in the field of foreign trade, and the risk of spreading to internal larger-scale manufacturing industry is still controllable.

　　How to deal with it?

　　Although in the long run, the impact of industrial chain can be effectively alleviated, but in the short term, China’s economy, especially China’s enterprises, still have to face the challenges of trade and industrial chain turmoil. In addition to the government’s hedging and rescue policies, China enterprises can adjust their business and development strategies in the face of increasingly harsh internal and external environment in order to tide over the difficulties through the following methods.

　　1. Streamline business and shrink the development front.

　　Faced with the shrinking demand and the interruption of supply chain, enterprises need to strictly control the business content, strengthen the management of the main business, and at the same time shrink the development front, so as to avoid more potential risks. If enterprises increase investment against the trend and implement diversified development, they may face operational risks in many fields. For example, failure in a specific market often leads to a chain reaction, which breaks through the cash flow of enterprises, resulting in damage to the main business.

　　Streamlining business, at the same time, also means "reducing expenditure", strictly controlling investment, eliminating redundant phenomena, and even involving appropriate downsizing and salary reduction, so as to retain more concentrated energy to develop major businesses and enhance core competitiveness.

　　2. Adjust the target market to meet the change of market direction.

　　In a worse external environment, a large number of foreign trade enterprises are facing the challenge of exporting to domestic sales. Fortunately, the domestic demand market in China is constantly expanding, and new market demands are constantly emerging. Enterprises need to seize these opportunities, find the right market direction on the basis of their own operating advantages, and actively cater to the future development trend of emerging industries, such as offline to online, and seize opportunities such as Internet and platform transformation.

　　3. Maintain cash flow and persist in survival.

　　China’s role as a safe haven for financial assets is more obvious. Under the logic of economic development, China’s economy and assets are more attractive than before, and foreign capital continues to flow into China. It is obviously less difficult for China to stabilize its economy than other countries. Once the economy stabilizes, it is still possible for China to upgrade its position in the global economy, and continue to maintain the first position in the global consumer market scale and economic activity. At that time, China enterprises will also have broad demand again.

　　The brand awareness of Haier refrigerator is very high. Many people have heard that Haier Commander Refrigerator and Haier Refrigerator are the same. What is the difference between Haier Commander Refrigerator and Haier Refrigerator? Why is the price gap so big? The following small series will give you a specific analysis. Let’s take a look.

　　Haier tongshuai refrigerator

　　Commander-in-Chief is the third sub-brand of Haier Group after Haier and casarte, and it is a customized home appliance brand launched by Haier Group under the background of the Internet era. In 1998, the commander-in-chief brand was exported to the European market as an overseas marketing platform.

　　Haier Group products have three brands, Haier, casarte and Commander-in-Chief. Haier refrigerator and Haier Commander refrigerator are both brands of Haier refrigerators, but they are put into different markets. Commander series belongs to Haier’s low-end and mid-end brands. In the early stage, home appliances went to the countryside as Commander refrigerators, and casarte series was the high-end brand of refrigerators.

　　The product appearance of Haier refrigerator and Haier commander refrigerator may be different. Haier staff said that Haier’s commander-in-chief brand and Haier brand refrigerator are the same in terms of development and production technology, but the brands are different and the materials of some refrigerators are different. The product quality is the same, and the commander-in-chief also provides product customization.

　　Generally, Haier refrigerators have refrigerator specification labels (or refrigerator nameplates) attached to the inner wall of the refrigerating room or the back of the refrigerator, which indicate the specifications, models (such as "BCD-216YH silver gray" for a 216-liter silver gray refrigerator), power, circuit diagram and so on. Haier’s products exclusively used in urban and rural areas are generally not fully labeled or not labeled at all, but the performance of the products is the same as other products. For the refrigerators exclusively used, only the refrigerators are more suitable for the supply and demand sides.

　　The difference between Haier commander refrigerator and Haier refrigerator is here for everyone. You should be able to distinguish between the two refrigerators now, and also introduce the relationship between them. In the future, you can clearly distinguish when buying Haier refrigerator. I hope the content introduced above can help those in need.

China people’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression is extremely tragic, from strategic defense to strategic stalemate, and then to strategic counterattack. Whether on the frontal battlefield or the battlefield behind enemy lines, the people of China shared the same enemy and went to the national disaster together, and their iron bones clanked and died, playing a heroic victory. Yang Jingyu, Zhao Shangzhi, Zuo Quan, Peng Xuefeng, Tong Linge, Zhao Dengyu, Zhang Zizhong, Dai Anlan and many other heroic groups are outstanding representatives of the Chinese people who are fearless of violence and die for their country.

Qu Yuan, a great patriotic poet.

Qu Yuan is a great patriotic poet in the history of China and the founder of China’s romantic literature. He is known as "the ancestor of Chinese poetry" and "the ancestor of Ci Fu" and is called "the soul of poetry" by later generations. His main works include Li Sao, Nine Songs, Nine Chapters and Tian Wen. The Songs of the South, written by him, is the source of China’s romantic literature, and is also called "coquettish" with the Book of Songs, which has a far-reaching influence on later poetry.

Qu Yuan was an important politician in Chu State. He was trusted by Chu Huaiwang in his early years, and served as a Zuotu and a doctor in San Lv, in charge of internal and external affairs. He advocated that the reform plan should be strong, that is, he should promote talents and improve statutes internally, and that he should unite with external forces to fight against Qin. Being slandered by the nobles, he was exiled to Hanbei and Yuanxiang Valley successively. In 278 BC, the Qin general attacked Chu Duying (now Jiangling, Hubei Province) in vain, and Qu Yuan was filled with grief and indignation. Huai Shi sank in the Miluo River and died.

The "Several Policies and Measures on Promoting the Stable Growth of Foreign Trade" issued by the Ministry of Commerce recently proposed to promote the development of cross-border e-commerce. The status and importance of cross-border e-commerce does not stop there. At present, it has been included as a new clause in some newly signed and escalating bilateral free trade agreements.

In recent years, new foreign trade formats and new modes have emerged in China, especially cross-border e-commerce, which has become a "new engine" to stimulate foreign trade growth with its rapid development. Relying on strong supply capacity, faster customs clearance efficiency and more cost-effective customized services, cross-border e-commerce is promoting more China products to link to the global market. Cross-border packages smoothly shuttle between more countries and regions, bringing China closer to the world.

"New clause" of FTA

Data show that in the first three quarters of this year, the import and export of cross-border e-commerce in China increased by 11.5% year-on-year, accounting for nearly 6% of China’s foreign trade. As a new format and model in the field of foreign trade, the rapid development of cross-border e-commerce is a pragmatic achievement of China’s continuous expansion of high-level opening-up and promotion of bilateral and multilateral economic and trade cooperation.

On November 14th, China and Peru signed a protocol to upgrade the FTA, adding five chapters to the original FTA, including e-commerce. On August 22nd, the joint communique between China and the Belarusian government pointed out that the two sides will strengthen cooperation in the field of e-commerce and encourage Belarusian enterprises to enter the major e-commerce platforms in China … Recently, the newly signed bilateral free trade agreement or the upgraded free trade agreement has included cross-border e-commerce as a new clause, which has injected momentum into the development of cross-border e-commerce between China and its free trade partners.

"The inclusion of cross-border e-commerce as a new clause in the bilateral free trade agreement has released a new signal that China attaches great importance to the role of cross-border e-commerce in international trade and regards it as an important tool to promote trade liberalization and facilitation." Hong Yong, a think tank expert of China Digital and Real Integration 50 Forum, told the International Business Daily reporter.

"This is a very positive signal." Wang Chunming, executive director and general manager of Harbin Fuhuo International Supply Chain Co., Ltd., told the International Business Daily that the inclusion of cross-border e-commerce in the terms of the bilateral free trade agreement not only simplifies the trade process of enterprises, reduces the barriers to cross-border transactions of enterprises, but also deepens the cooperation between enterprises and other countries in e-commerce. "On the other hand, this move also shows that while promoting the high-quality development of foreign trade, China has taken the digital economy and cross-border e-commerce as a key link in its future development, which is bound to promote more enterprises to participate in the international market."

In Hong Yong’s view, this move also reflects China’s determination to play a more active role in global digital economic governance and trade rule-making. "China has always been committed to jointly formulating rules through international cooperation to promote the healthy and orderly development of cross-border e-commerce."

Cross-border e-commerce "acceleration"

"Our e-commerce sales have nearly tripled year-on-year, and the logistics speed has been shortened from more than 40 days to about 25 days now." Wang Chunming said that the company’s latest batch of orders were delivered from Belarus to Erenhot, and the goods were distributed to all parts of the country after unloading. "Five cars were delivered this morning, and four cars will be’ taken’ later."

There are many foreign trade enterprises like Wang Chunming that enjoy the dividend of cross-border e-commerce development. In Guangzhou and Baiyun Airport Comprehensive Bonded Zone, batches of small packages imported directly by cross-border e-commerce such as beauty and skin care products and clothing accessories were sorted and sent to all parts of the country. In Sichuan, in eight provincial-level cross-border e-commerce industrial parks, 400 cross-border e-commerce source factories operate efficiently, and batches of products with Bashu characteristics go overseas from here.

Since 2014, cross-border e-commerce has been written into the government work report for 11 consecutive years. From 1.06 trillion yuan in 2018 to 2.38 trillion yuan in 2023, the import and export of cross-border e-commerce in China increased by 1.2 times in five years.

Hong Yong believes that the rapid development of cross-border e-commerce in China is mainly due to its ability to effectively reduce transaction costs, shorten transaction chains, improve transaction efficiency, and meet the personalized and diversified needs of consumers.

According to customs statistics, in the first eight months of this year, there were 630,000 foreign trade business entities with import and export performance in China, up 8.8% year-on-year. According to preliminary statistics, the number of cross-border e-commerce entities in China has exceeded 120,000, and the number of cross-border e-commerce industrial parks has exceeded 1,000. Relying on 165 cross-border e-commerce comprehensive test zones in China, cross-border e-commerce has driven more enterprises from various industrial belts to participate in international trade.

Wang Chunming said that these data reflect the great changes in global consumption and trade patterns. "In the past, international trade mainly relied on traditional channels and logistics models. Nowadays, consumers can purchase global goods more conveniently through e-commerce platforms, and enterprises can also use e-commerce platforms to break geographical restrictions and enter the international market."

However, the industry has also noticed that the development of cross-border e-commerce still faces some challenges, such as the inconvenience of cross-border exchange, the need to improve cross-border e-commerce service capabilities, and differences in laws and regulations. In the next step, how to promote the "new engine" with high quality is the key to the industry’s stability and far-reaching.

In this regard, Wang Chunming suggested: First, strengthen policy coordination with other countries, increase the promotion of overseas markets, and promote more cross-border e-commerce enterprises to enter the international market. The second is to promote the combination of cross-border e-commerce platforms and localized services to help domestic enterprises better adapt to the international market, especially to provide more support in product compliance and payment security. "Only when policy, technology and market work together can we provide a better ecological environment for cross-border e-commerce and further promote its healthy and sustainable development."

Hong Yong suggested that the first is to strengthen infrastructure construction, such as improving domestic and international logistics networks and improving the security and convenience of cross-border payment systems. The second is to optimize the policy environment and reduce the operating costs of cross-border e-commerce enterprises through measures such as decentralization and reduction of examination and approval links. The third is to strengthen personnel training and technical support, establish a training mechanism for cross-border e-commerce professionals, and promote the application of technological innovation. Fourth, strengthen international cooperation, actively participate in the formulation of international rules, and create a fairer and more transparent external environment for cross-border e-commerce enterprises.

　　Beijing, July 31 (Reporter Tang Ming) According to World Finance, the economic voice of the Central Radio and Television General Station, the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics showed that in the first half of this year, the per capita consumption expenditure of the national residents reached 10,330 yuan, and consumption is still an important driving force to lead the stable economic growth. With the release of economic data of provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in the first half of the year, a more detailed "consumption map" is presented to people: where do residents spend the most money? Where is the fastest growth in consumption?

　　The per capita consumption expenditure is generally higher than last year.

　　In the first half of this year, the ranking of per capita consumption expenditure of residents in various provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) was basically the same as last year, and the amount of consumption expenditure generally increased compared with last year. The data shows that the top rankings of per capita consumption expenditure in the first half of this year were Shanghai, Beijing, Tianjin, Zhejiang and Guangdong, which were consistent with the first half of last year.

　　Among them, Beijing’s per capita consumption expenditure exceeded 20,000 yuan, Hubei, Chongqing and Inner Mongolia exceeded 10,000 yuan. In the first half of this year, the per capita consumption expenditure exceeded 10,000 yuan, an increase of three compared with the same period last year.

　　The southeast coastal market is huge, and the western region is growing rapidly.

　　Looking at the "consumption map" in the first half of the year, the strong economic provinces in the southeast coast are generally stable and the consumer market is huge. Among the top 10 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in the first half of the year, the southeast coastal provinces and municipalities accounted for half of the country, and the per capita consumption expenditures of Shanghai, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Jiangsu and Fujian all exceeded the national average, ranking in the forefront.

　　Although the consumption market in the central and western regions is not as large as that in the southeast coast, the growth rate is generally faster. Among them, the total retail sales of social consumer goods in Sichuan Province in the first half of the year increased by 10.5% year-on-year, and the growth rate was 2.1 percentage points higher than the national average.

　　Expanding consumption scenes in various places to stimulate consumption vitality

　　In order to further stimulate the vitality of consumption, many regions have expanded the consumption scene. Recently, Beijing residents have fully felt the changes brought by the "night economy" to people’s lives. Guangdong has issued the Implementation Plan for Improving the System and Mechanism of Promoting Consumption in Guangdong Province, and put forward 29 specific measures in nine aspects in view of the outstanding problems that restrict consumption at present. Among them, in order to optimize the automobile consumption environment, measures such as gradually relaxing the car lottery and auction indicators in Guangzhou and Shenzhen and expanding the scale of quasi-purchase were put forward.

　　Service-oriented, development-oriented, and experience-oriented consumption are featured.

　　With the development of mobile Internet technology, in the "consumption map" in the first half of the year, service-oriented consumption, developmental consumption and experiential consumption have become the consumption characteristics of all localities. For example, in the first half of the year, Shanghai’s retail sales without stores reached 117.3 billion yuan, an increase of 20.4% over the same period last year; The contribution rate of service consumption in Beijing to the total consumption growth reached 70.4%, and the contribution rate of upgrading consumption such as communication to the total consumption growth reached 60%.

　　Xing Ziqiang, chief economist of Morgan Stanley China, believes that in the future, 5G will inject new vitality into consumption. "The application of 5G is expected to help smart cities, the Internet of Things, the Internet of Vehicles and other applications to a big step, and finally make those more close to consumers. The vitality of tailor-made services, experiences, shopping and medical consumption will be further released, which may be the next stage."

　　Transfer money during love, do you need to return it after breaking up? Buying a wedding room and registering your girlfriend’s name is a gift or a joint house purchase? Buying a car before marriage is a bride price or a gift. Can I ask for a return after breaking up? Recently, Haidian court tried many such cases, and the judge explained them in detail and gave a prompt.

　　Case:

　　Forced by his girlfriend to write an iou? If "coercion" is not proved, it will be returned.

　　Xiao Na said that during her love with Xiaolei, Xiaolei borrowed 600,000 yuan from her on the grounds of revolving business, and then repaid 30,000 yuan. In July 2015, Xiaolei issued a debit note to her, promising to repay it at maturity, but failed to fulfill the repayment promise after the expiration. She repeatedly urged for no results, so she sued Xiaolei for repaying the loan principal of 570,000 yuan and paying interest.

　　During the trial, Xiao Na submitted the IOUs and transfer records to the court. The content of the loan shows: "Xiaolei borrowed 600,000 yuan from Xiaona today, and has already paid back 30,000 yuan, leaving 570,000 yuan to be paid off before October 2015. On July 30, 2015, the borrower Xiao Lei. " According to the personal account statement of Xiao Na Bank, Xiao Na transferred RMB 600,000 to Xiaolei from 2014 to 2015 by mobile phone.

　　Xiaolei recognized the transfer record, but said that he and Xiao Na were originally in love, and they often transferred money to each other during their love. He did not borrow money from Xiaona. The two parties originally planned to hold a wedding in August 2015, but a few days before the wedding, Xiao Na and several people forced him to write this IOU.

　　The court held that according to the evidence submitted by Xiao Na, it can be concluded that there is a private loan relationship between her and Xiaolei, and Xiaolei should fulfill the repayment obligation, but the failure to repay all the loans so far has constituted a breach of contract. Xiaolei claimed that the IOU was issued under the coercion of Xiao Na, but no evidence was provided, so the court refused to accept it. Finally, the court ordered Xiaolei to repay Xiao Na’s loan of 570,000 yuan and pay corresponding interest.

　　The judge suggested that the lender should keep the payment voucher.

　　Hu Meiqing of Haidian Court said that it is very common for lovers to transfer money to each other. After the relationship ends, it is not uncommon for one party to advocate "transferring money to borrow money" and sue. Because many lovers write IOUs to each other for emotional reasons, but no loans actually occur, it is more complicated to identify such loan relationships.

　　Is it a loan relationship to transfer money during the relationship? The judge believes that the party who advocates the establishment of the loan relationship generally bears the burden of proof on whether the loan relationship is true and the actual delivery of the loan. Therefore, it is particularly important for lenders to keep relevant payment vouchers. Borrowing between lovers, it is best to leave traces by means of transfer, etc., and at the same time pay attention to keeping the bank’s running water and transaction records. If you need to pay a large amount of cash, you should keep the bank’s withdrawal records, and if necessary, you should ask the other party to issue an iou or sign a loan agreement.

　　Case:

　　Before marriage, the court awarded 50% of the property rights under the name of one registered person.

　　Another pair of lovers, Zhou Yang and Li Ting, have been dating since they were in college, and they broke up in 2015. In October 2012, the two parties jointly invested to buy a house in Haidian District, Beijing. Because Zhou Yang was not qualified to buy a house at that time, they negotiated and signed a sales contract with the real estate company in the name of Li Ting. After that, Zhou Yang paid the down payment of 1,588,519 yuan, the purchase price of 160,000 yuan, and Li Ting paid the remaining house price of 440,000 yuan. The house was registered in the name of Li Ting. On June 30, 2016, after obtaining the qualification to buy a house, Zhou Yang contacted Li Ting to handle the house transfer, but Li Ting ignored it. Zhou Yang found out that she planned to sell the house through an intermediary company.

　　In this regard, Zhou Yang believes that the joint purchase of a house by both parties and Li Ting’s unauthorized sale have seriously infringed on their legitimate rights and interests, so he sued his ex-girlfriend and demanded that the house be divided according to law, with himself and Li Ting accounting for 78.3% and 21.7% respectively.

　　However, Li Ting said that the house was registered in her personal name and belonged to personal property, and Zhou Yang had no right to divide it; Moreover, the purchase price paid by Zhou Yang is a gift to her, and there is no common property between the two parties.

　　During the trial, both of them said that they intended to buy a house as a wedding room, but later they broke up due to emotional reasons, and the house has been occupied by Li Ting. The court held that it was an act of jointly purchasing property with marriage intention to jointly invest and buy a house in the name of Li during their love. Now the two sides have failed to get married and end their love relationship, and the purpose of buying a house has been impossible to achieve. Although the property right is registered in the name of the woman, it should still be recognized as common property. In the end, the court ruled that the house was jointly owned by two people, with each party holding 50% of the property rights, and Li Ting assisted Zhou Yang in the registration of the property rights.

　　The judge suggested that buying a house together during love is regarded as common property.

　　It is more and more common to buy a house jointly before marriage. Hu Meiqing believes that houses, cars and furniture jointly invested by both parties during the period of love should be regarded as common property. At the termination of the joint ownership relationship, the division of the joint property shall be handled according to the agreement if there is an agreement, and if there is no agreement, the factors such as the contribution of the co-owners, the contribution to the joint property and the actual needs of the co-owners in production and life shall be considered. In order to avoid disputes in the future, we should be cautious in buying a house together during the period of love. We can sign a capital contribution agreement in advance to stipulate their respective shares, and at the same time, we should keep relevant evidence such as bank transfer records and payment vouchers.

　　Case:

　　Buying a car, registering in the name of the prospective mother-in-law, breaking up, and the court awarded the refund of the car.

　　A couple decided to get married. Li Wen said that he spent 226,856.9 yuan to buy an SUV as a wedding gift at the request of his girlfriend Zhang Xia. Because they were not qualified to buy a car in Beijing, they registered the car in the name of Zhang Xia’s mother Wang. However, the two sides broke up soon due to personality and other reasons. Li Wen’s request for Zhang Xia to return the car purchase fee was rejected, so he sued Zhang Xia’s mother and daughter for returning the engagement price of more than 230,000 yuan.

　　During the trial, Zhang Xia’s mother and daughter argued that there was no engagement between Li Wen and Zhang Xia, and the vehicle involved in the case that Li Wen invested and registered under Wang’s name was not an engagement bride price. Because of their long relationship, Li Wen mentioned breaking up many times. Before buying a car, Li Wen broke up with Zhang Xia again. This time, he proposed to buy a car for Zhang Xia to make up for his feelings. Moreover, when buying a car, the old car under Wang’s name is discounted to 8000 yuan, so the newly bought car also has Wang’s rights and interests, which should be divided before disposal. The used car has been depreciated and should not be returned at the new car price.

　　The court held that the car purchase money should belong to Li Wen’s expenditure for the purpose of marriage and has the nature of bride price. Although Zhang Xia’s mother and daughter claimed that Li Wen’s contribution was a gift, they did not provide sufficient evidence and the court did not support it. In view of their failure to get married, Li Wen has the right to demand that the other party return the corresponding expenses incurred for marriage. Regarding the amount of money to be refunded, it should be judged according to Li Wen’s actual expenses for purchasing the car. Finally, the court ruled that Zhang Xia’s mother and daughter returned Li Wen’s car purchase price of 232,983.79 yuan.

　　Judge’s tip: unmarried people ask for the support of the bride price court.

　　Hu Meiqing said that the phenomenon of paying bride price before marriage is a custom, which is popular in many parts of China. If both parties fail to go through the marriage registration formalities, and one party requests to return the bride price, it shall be supported. If unmarried men and women have indeed lived together but are not registered to get married in the end, the court can determine whether to return and the amount of the bride price according to the time of their living together, the amount of the bride price and the local rural customs and habits. In addition, the actual payers and recipients of the bride price are not limited to men and women themselves. If the actual recipients of the bride price are the parents of the woman or other people, when the man sues for the return of the bride price, the woman and the actual recipients can be listed as co-defendants.

　　The Beijing Municipal Health and Health Commission, the Municipal Education Commission and the Municipal People’s Social Security Bureau jointly released the work plan for influenza vaccination in Beijing in 2022. The influenza vaccination work in this city will be implemented in batches in mid-September, and the free vaccination work is initially scheduled to end at the end of November.

　　Free influenza vaccination population is — —

　　Older people over the age of 60 with the city’s resident ID card/social security card;

　　All primary and secondary school students (including domestic and foreign students in primary schools, general middle schools, technical secondary schools, vocational high schools, technical colleges, reform schools and special education schools);

　　Emergency support personnel for major activities identified by the health administrative departments of all districts (including frontline personnel for epidemic prevention and control in COVID-19).

　　Routine immunization clinics in all districts are responsible for providing self-funded and free influenza vaccination services, and actively organizing qualified medical institutions and medical personnel within their respective jurisdictions to provide self-funded influenza vaccination services. In areas with large vaccination needs, at least one qualified secondary and above medical institution should be organized to provide vaccination services during this year’s influenza vaccination. Choose suitable places in each district to set up temporary inoculation points reasonably, and when necessary, open temporary inoculation points of COVID-19 vaccine to meet the population’s centralized inoculation demand. Each district should take various measures to further improve the vaccination service capacity in its jurisdiction, such as setting up district-level mobile vaccination teams, extending the vaccination time of vaccination clinics, setting up weekend clinics, and encouraging physical examination centers to set up vaccination clinics.

　　In 2022, the city will further promote the influenza vaccine appointment vaccination system under the situation of epidemic prevention and control in COVID-19. Each district is responsible for organizing primary and secondary schools, secondary specialized schools, technical colleges, old-age care institutions, villages/neighborhood committees and other units under the guidance of the district CDC to make an appointment and docking with the vaccination clinics in the jurisdiction for free vaccination. Citizens who are willing to vaccinate can make an appointment at the vaccination clinic through various appointment methods such as internet, telephone and on-site appointment.

　　The first batch of vaccination work is scheduled to start in mid-September, mainly for the elderly aged 60 and above in Beijing, and the vaccination publicity and mobilization of students in primary and secondary schools, secondary specialized schools and technical colleges will be started simultaneously.The second batch is scheduled to start in late September, mainly for students in primary and secondary schools, secondary specialized schools and technical colleges, and simultaneously start the self-funded vaccination of influenza vaccine in the city. The third batch is scheduled to start in early October, mainly for emergency support personnel of major events (including front-line personnel of epidemic prevention and control in COVID-19). If there is no special reason, the free vaccination of influenza vaccine in the city is initially scheduled to end at the end of November.

　　All vaccination clinics should arrange the vaccination work of schools, old-age care institutions and other collective units in advance to avoid large-scale vaccination in concentrated periods. At the same time, do a good job in registering the demand for pneumococcal vaccination, arrange vaccination reasonably, and provide joint vaccination services for pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine and influenza vaccine for the elderly.

　　All vaccination clinics should strengthen vaccine management, standardize vaccination operations, strictly implement epidemic prevention and control measures such as daily ventilation and disinfection, temperature measurement, code test, negative nucleic acid test, and keeping a one-meter line at the vaccination site to ensure vaccination safety. At the same time, they should take various convenient service measures such as cold protection, rain protection and anti-skid, and do a good job in vaccination warm-hearted service and humanistic care for key groups such as the elderly and students, so as to further enhance the comfort and satisfaction of the citizens.

We also hope that all parties concerned will actively consider the "double suspension" initiative and the "two-track parallel" idea put forward by China, work with China to promote dialogue and consultation, and make efforts to promote the denuclearization of the peninsula and achieve peace and stability on the peninsula.

　　Guangzhou Daily News (all-media reporters Jessica Fong Ching correspondent Li Xiaoyuan and Zhou Bo) On March 23rd this year, a movie-like "car-chasing and intercepting play" was staged on Jinsha Road in Haizhu District, Guangzhou. In order to stop a car, two large trucks did not hesitate to chase the car for one kilometer, cross the line, turn around and even hit the other car’s head. It turned out that the driver of this car had beaten with another car driver, Zhou, because of the problem of not giving way to each other in the narrow road. When Zhou was angry, he called relatives driving big trucks to intercept each other. On the morning of July 30th, Guangzhou Haizhu District People’s Court held a public hearing on Zhou’s case of suspected trouble-making, and pronounced a sentence in court. Zhou was sentenced to seven months’ imprisonment.

　　According to the prosecution’s allegations, at 22: 40 on March 23 this year, when the defendant Zhou drove a car out of Innovation Road via Xinmin Sixth Street in Haizhu District, he met Kuang Mouming driving a car from Innovation Road to Xinmin Sixth Street. Because of the narrow road, two cars cannot pass at the same time. Due to the problem of avoiding the car, the defendant Zhou had an argument with Kuang Mouming and his co-pilot Kuang Mouhua, and then the two sides beat each other.

　　After a "scuffle", Kuang Mouming and Kuang Mouhua drove away first, and the defendant Zhou immediately left a voice message on his relatives’ WeChat group using WeChat, claiming that he was injured in Xinmin Sixth Street and asked his relatives to come over to help chase him by car. At the same time, he also called relatives to inform them to drive to the scene.

　　Later, two large trucks called by the defendant Zhou arrived at the scene, and Zhou sat on one of the large trucks and commanded to catch up with the car for nearly one kilometer. When chasing after the Jinsha gas station near Jinsha Road in Haizhu District, Zhou’s big truck intercepted the small car driven by Kuang Mouming. When Kuang Mouming saw it, he turned around and fled. At this time, another big truck rushed from the opposite lane and crossed the line and crashed into the small car driven by Kuang Mouming, causing damage to the left front of the car and the left rear mirror.

　　After Kuang Mouming was hit and stopped, Zhou’s big truck immediately stepped forward to intercept. Zhou and others got off the cab and wanted to rush to the vehicle driven by Kuang Mouming. When Kuang Mouming saw it, he immediately drove away from the scene and called the police for help. Subsequently, the defendant Zhou was arrested by the police. After identification, the injuries of Kuang Mouming and Kuang Mouhua were all minor injuries, and the loss price of the car driven by Kuang Mouming was RMB 8663.22.

　　The prosecutor asked in court, "Do you know the consequences of chasing cars on the main road?" "Why didn’t you call the police immediately?" Zhou argued that the reason why he informed his relatives to chase and intercept Kuang Mouming’s driving vehicle was that Kuang Mouming and Kuang Mouhua beat him and fled. He didn’t remember their license plates, only recognized cars and people, "just wanted to intercept the other vehicle and call the police", but there was no alarm after the collision.

　　After trial, Haizhu District People’s Court held that the defendant Zhou chased and intercepted others, and the circumstances were bad; Arbitrary destruction of public or private property, if the circumstances are serious, has constituted the crime of stirring up trouble. The defendant Zhou confessed his crime truthfully after arriving at the case and voluntarily pleaded guilty, which can be given a lighter punishment according to law. The defendant, Zhou, had an altercation with Kuang Mouming’s party because of the meeting, and then beat each other. After Kuang Mouming’s party left, he still called others to drive the truck to catch up with and intercept the vehicle driven by Kuang Mouming. His behavior of catching up and intercepting had a great impact on traffic order, and he was given a heavier punishment as appropriate. Considering that Kuang Mouming was at fault, and the defendant Zhou had actively compensated Kuang Mouming for his losses, he was given a lighter punishment as appropriate. In the end, the court ruled that the defendant Zhou constituted a crime of seeking trouble and sentenced him to seven months in prison.

　　On May 24 this year, a newborn finless porpoise cub was separated from its mother and ran aground on the beach. Its fate touched the hearts of countless Nanjing people. But after 18 hours of emergency rescue, the "smiling angel" left us. "Even with artificial assistance, it is still difficult for cubs who leave their mothers to survive." Professor Yang Guang, Dean of the School of Life Sciences of Nanjing Normal University, told a cruel truth: the fate of this little finless porpoise may have been doomed. He believes that the only way to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy is to improve the ecological environment of the Yangtze River in all aspects, one of which is to restore the bait resources and prevent the finless porpoise from starving.

　　Yesterday morning in Nanjing Jiangbin Park, all the 1 million fry subscribed by deji plaza were put into the Yangtze River. The reporter learned that this is the first time in China that an enterprise has initiated a release activity for the protection of finless porpoises.

　　Intern Xu Linchen Yangzi Evening News All-Media Reporter Zhang Ke

　　A rescue that was doomed from the beginning.

　　The latest hot event about the finless porpoise was the "beaching incident of finless porpoise cubs" in Nanjing at the end of last month. This little finless porpoise was found by the public on the river beach of Yanziji Wharf at 4 pm that day. It was born about two or three days ago, but it hasn’t opened its eyes yet, and its breath is weak. At that time, the people involved in the rescue contacted the experts of Nanjing Underwater World, and on the other hand, the water police drove speedboats to patrol the river to find the trace of the female finless porpoise. "The finless porpoise is a mammal, and the newborn calf must be with its mother. This little finless porpoise must have been separated from its mother when it appeared alone, and the mother finless porpoise is likely to come back to find the child." Jiang Meng, secretary-general of the Nanjing finless porpoise protection association who participated in the rescue at that time, said.

　　Until 8 o’clock in the evening, the female finless porpoise was still not found, and the little finless porpoise was forced to transfer to the underwater world for treatment. Regrettably, at 10 o’clock the next morning, the little finless porpoise died unfortunately before he opened his eyes to see the world. At that time, Jiang Meng waited all night in the underwater world and witnessed the whole process. He told the Yangzi Evening News reporter that the finless porpoise was once in good condition and could eat and breathe with artificial assistance. "But in the end, it was short of breath and emotional anxiety, and experts took various emergency measures. All have no effect." Jiang Meng said.

　　The finless porpoise is a clever but fragile creature. Its intelligence is close to that of gorillas, and it knows how to hunt and prey collectively. However, the underage or newborn finless porpoise has almost no ability to live independently. Professor Yang Guang, dean of the School of Life Sciences of Nanjing Normal University, told the Yangzi Evening News reporter that the cub can’t eat and prey independently without its mother, and it must rely on breast milk for nutrition. "About half a year after birth, cubs can learn to live independently."

　　The Yangzi Evening News reporter learned that the adult finless porpoise had survived under artificial rescue, but the cubs have not been successfully rescued so far. "The finless porpoise is too sensitive to the outside world. The artificial environment is different from nature, which will make it nervous. If the tension continues, it will lead to endocrine disorders and illness, which is fatal to the cubs." Professor Yang Guang said.

　　What caused the little finless porpoise to be separated from its mother? "It may be a sudden encounter with a jet stream or an undercurrent, or it may be a human activity such as a ship sailing, a sudden whistle or a sudden increase in the sound of a motor, which may cause fright." Professor Yang Guang believes that the impact of human activities on the ecology of the Yangtze River is really interfering with the normal life and reproduction of finless porpoises.

　　Finless porpoises at the top of the food chain but not enough to eat.

　　Jiang Meng, secretary-general of Nanjing finless porpoise protection association, often observes finless porpoises on the upper and lower reaches of the Yangtze River Bridge, and organizes volunteers to assist fishery administration departments to release finless porpoises’ food such as fry and bait into the Yangtze River. "Many times when feeding, we found that the finless porpoise soon emerged on the nearby river." The water of finless porpoise is called "Jiang Zhu worships the wind", which was once a unique scenery on the Yangtze River. Today, however, there is something bitter behind such a scene. He believes that the gathering and appearance of finless porpoises during feeding, on the one hand, shows that finless porpoises are very smart creatures, on the other hand, also shows that finless porpoises are starving and very hungry for food. Jiang Meng once paid attention to the records of finless porpoises found in recent years. He found that "finless porpoises were originally round and chubby, but many bodies were salvaged and found to be very thin, and after dissection, they found that their stomachs were empty."

　　Relevant data show that the natural catch of fisheries in the Yangtze River is decreasing year by year, from 540,000 tons in 1954 to 70,000 tons in 2012. There are 175 endemic species in the Yangtze River, and more than half of them have been lost in the past five years. The long-term monitoring data of many scientific research institutions, such as the Institute of Aquatic Sciences of Chinese Academy of Sciences, show that the number of fry of the "four big fish" in the Yangtze River has dropped sharply, from more than 30 billion in the 1950s to less than 100 million in 2013.

　　The reporter learned that in 2016, the closed fishing period of the Nanjing section of the Yangtze River was adjusted from March 1 to June 30, and it was extended from the past three months to four months. This move was to strengthen the protection of finless porpoises and other aquatic organisms in the Yangtze River. However, before the effective intervention of government departments, the phenomenon of cool fishing and overfishing in the Yangtze River was more serious. Illegal fishing activities such as fish frying, electric fishing, "ecstasy" and homeless nets are draining the fishery resources in the Yangtze River.

　　"finless porpoises have no natural enemies in the Yangtze River. They can be said to be creatures at the top of the food chain. They are not very picky eaters, as long as they are fish within 20 cm in length. However, due to the exhaustion of fisheries in the Yangtze River, finless porpoises are in a state of starvation. " Professor Yang Guang said that in addition to accidental incidents such as accidental injuries caused by ship navigation and water pollution, the continuous decrease in the number of finless porpoises is ultimately caused by insufficient food resources.

　　Deji plaza subscribed for 1 million fry to demonstrate scientific "release"

　　Yesterday morning, at the Virescence Expo Aquatic Release Platform, deji plaza held the activity of "Yangtze River Aquatic Proliferation and Release". One million fry subscribed by deji plaza were all put into the Yangtze River. The Yangzi Evening News reporter learned that this is the first proliferation and release activity initiated by social forces in China for the protection of finless porpoises. Deji plaza made a scientific demonstration under the guidance of Nanjing Fishery Administration and Fishing Port Supervision and Management Office and Nanjing finless porpoise Protection Association.

　　The so-called "proliferation and release" is the activity of releasing aquatic species or their parents into public waters such as oceans, rivers and lakes by artificial means. Proliferation and release can replenish and restore the population of biological resources, improve the population structure of organisms, and help maintain biodiversity and protect endangered species. According to statistics, in the past three years, Jiangsu has invested 230 million yuan in proliferation and release. In 2015, the province invested more than 79 million yuan, releasing more than 2.1 billion species, including 815 million marine economic species, 1.281 billion inland economic species and 8.48 million rare and endangered species.

　　The subscription of Deji this time includes the fry of four major fishes in the Yangtze River (black carp, grass carp, silver carp and bighead carp) and the national second-class protected wild animal Myxocyprinus asiaticus. The Yangzi Evening News reporter saw at the scene that the fry were transported to the scene by special transport vehicles from the cultivation base cooked in Jiangning Lake. According to the breeder, these fry were specially bred for this proliferation and release, and cold oxygen transportation was used on the way to fully ensure their survival rate. Under the guidance of the staff of Nanjing Fishery Administration and Fishing Port Supervision and Management Office, the volunteers from deji plaza carefully dumped the fry, and along the long discharge embankment, countless fry swam across the slope and merged into the waves by the river. Fish fry are like countless black lines. As soon as they touch the water, they instantly swim away and go to the middle reaches of the river.

　　The release activity was sponsored by deji plaza and Nanjing finless porpoise protection association. Jia Wei, deputy general manager of deji plaza, introduced the original intention of choosing the theme of "Saving Endangered Animals" on the occasion of the 10th anniversary. "The Yangtze finless porpoise is one of the closest endangered animals to us. We hope that through the release of the Yangtze River and the efforts of all sectors of society, more people will pay attention to the living conditions and protect the finless porpoise. To contribute to the protection of the Yangtze finless porpoise, improve the water quality of the Yangtze River and protect the biodiversity of the mother river. " Jia Wei said.

　　Professor Yang Guang told reporters that finless porpoises mainly eat all kinds of fish in the Yangtze River, and they have no choice about the types of fish they eat, mainly depending on their size. "You don’t see it has teeth, but its teeth can only bite, not like people’s teeth have the ability to chew, so it eats fish, and generally fish within 20 cm can be eaten. "Therefore, the fry released this time, on the one hand, are four local fish, which enriches the fishery resources of the Yangtze River, on the other hand, it is also very suitable for finless porpoises to eat."

　　So which fish or aquatic animals are suitable for release? At the scene, the fishery department also listed a list. Freshwater fish include: herring, grass carp, silver carp, bighead carp, bream, Eriocheir sinensis, fugu obscurus and other indigenous species with regional characteristics; Marine fish include: Pseudosciaena crocea, jellyfish, Cynoglossus semilaevis, swimming crab, prawn, Sole Sole, Meretrix meretrix, Sparus macrocephalus, etc. Rare and endangered aquatic animals: Chinese sturgeon, mullet, etc.

　　Expert reminder > >

　　Don’t throw these creatures into the Yangtze River again.

　　"When volunteers of our association patrol the river, they often see citizens who spontaneously organize release activities in the river or along the Yangtze River." Jiang Meng told the Yangzi Evening News reporter that because the public does not know much about species knowledge, in many cases, the released species can not only improve the ecology and enrich fishery resources, but also cause damage. He listed the three most common creatures that were released by the people.

　　Crocodile turtle: It is huge, up to 70 cm long. In the folk concept, releasing such a large turtle is a matter of "accumulating merits" and is favored by domestic enthusiasts. But in fact, the snapping turtle has nothing to do with compassion. It is extremely aggressive and has few natural enemies except alligators. "The most important thing is that the snapping turtle originated in the southeastern United States. If it is put into the Yangtze River, it will become a veritable intruder. Once it enters the Yangtze River, it will become a’ overlord’ and will take away the already scarce food source of the finless porpoise." Jiang Meng said.

　　Snakehead: It is what we often call "mullet". Unlike snapping turtles, snakehead is a common local fish, which is distributed in all major river systems in China. It is also a delicious food on the table of the citizens and can be easily bought in the food market. "But what people often overlook is that snakehead is fierce, fertile and has a huge appetite, and can often eat all other fish in a lake or pond." Jiang Meng told reporters that because finless porpoises are at a disadvantage in quantity, they are unable to compete with snakehead, the "king of big stomachs", for limited bait resources.

　　Brazilian tortoise: The most widely reared reptile in the world, but it is also listed as one of the most dangerous invasive species in the world because it plunders a lot of living resources. In China, many pet markets can see Brazilian tortoises on sale. Jiang Meng appealed that if citizens keep Brazilian tortoises for viewing, they should not be released into the wild or in the river. "Once they reach a brand-new ecological environment without a sufficient number of natural enemies, they will become a scourge and become an ecological disaster there." Jiang Meng said.

　　Nanjing will launch the first "census" of finless porpoises this summer.

　　At present, how many finless porpoises are there in Nanjing section of the Yangtze River? The statistics of the fishery administration department are "twenty or thirty", but there is no more accurate standard answer. Liu Jun, deputy director of Nanjing Fishery and Fishing Port Supervision and Management Office, told Yangzi Evening News reporter at the site of the proliferation and release activities held in deji plaza yesterday that this summer, the fishery administration department will launch the first "population census" of the Yangtze River finless porpoise in Nanjing, the top university in the United Nations for finless porpoise protection.

　　The Yangzi Evening News reporter learned that the latest data about the Yangtze finless porpoise still comes from the 2012 Yangtze River Freshwater Dolphin Investigation Report. At that time, the population of Yangtze finless porpoises was about 1040, less than half of that before 2006, less than that of giant pandas, and showed an accelerated downward trend. However, the details about the finless porpoise in Nanjing section are still vague. Liu Jun introduced that in this survey, besides finding out the latest accurate data, we should also find out the "destructive factors" that affect the normal reproduction of finless porpoises, so as to provide scientific basis for future artificial protection. "The special funds for the current investigation have been approved and will be launched after the parties are properly prepared."

　　Professor Yang Guang from Nanjing Normal University introduced that on October 9, 2014, Nanjing Yangtze finless porpoise nature reserve was established, covering 90% of the waters of Nanjing Yangtze River. He believes that it is essential to further strengthen the protection of Nanjing finless porpoise population and conduct a systematic scientific investigation. "The original data of 20 to 30 finless porpoises are very vague. As a provincial protected area, how many finless porpoises are there in this place, what are the activities of finless porpoises, and what changes have been made in the range of activities in spring and summer? Mastering some basic information of finless porpoises is the premise for us to effectively protect finless porpoises."

　　Nanjing should also establish a "finless porpoise protection base"

　　The finless porpoise is the flagship species of the Yangtze River ecosystem, and it is also an indicator species of biodiversity and ecosystem health in the Yangtze River. The survival crisis of the finless porpoise itself is like a wake-up call, warning the deterioration of the entire Yangtze River ecosystem. Professor Yang Guang believes that from the perspective of long-term protection of finless porpoises, Nanjing should refer to the model of "giant panda breeding base" and establish a "finless porpoise protection base". "Since there is such a finless porpoise population in Nanjing, if we want to better carry out protection and rescue work, we can consider establishing a finless porpoise protection center. At the beginning, we can use the resources and facilities of the underwater world to help the finless porpoise, but in the future, we need to set up a special finless porpoise protection center. " Professor Yang said that after the investigation, with scientific consideration and demonstration, the finless porpoise can be better protected through protection, rescue and artificial breeding.

　　Deji celebrates its 10th anniversary.

　　Give the stage to the endangered animals around you

　　Jia Wei, deputy general manager of deji plaza, introduced that deji plaza will celebrate its 10th anniversary on June 26th this year. As a shopping center with humanistic care, deji plaza takes "saving endangered animals" as its theme, hoping to arouse Nanjing citizens’ concern for the environment. Yangzi Evening News reporter learned that in addition to subscribing for breeding, breeding and releasing, around the 10th anniversary, deji plaza also held a series of themed activities to protect finless porpoises and endangered animals.

　　The largest finless porpoise sculpture in Nanjing was exhibited on the first floor of deji plaza.

　　The 10th anniversary of deji plaza, with the theme of "Saving Endangered Animals", presented a series of themed activities. Among them, the artistic sculpture of finless porpoise named "Watch and Smile" is the most thought-provoking. The finless porpoise in the sculpture is smiling, but there are sad tears in his eyes. In the list of "Saving Endangered Animals" in the 10th anniversary of deji plaza, the Yangtze finless porpoise is an endangered animal living around us. This finless porpoise sculpture art exhibition is also to arouse more people’s awareness of caring for and protecting finless porpoises through more shocking art forms.

　　The overall size of the work is 10 meters ×3.8 meters, which is nearly seven times the size of the real finless porpoise, showing its process from beginning to end, from real to virtual until it disappears, just like a sketch drawn by a pen that is about to break ink, and finally disappears into a line. After the neck of the finless porpoise, there are a lot of mottled plastic marks, just like the wounds on the finless porpoise, which are shocking; The rising tail is made of more than 2,000 meters of steel bars, which gradually becomes sparse backwards until the lines disappear in the air, symbolizing the process of the disappearance and extinction of the finless porpoise.

　　On the 10th anniversary of deji plaza, the joint artists jointly presented the artistic sculpture of "Watching and Smiling" finless porpoise, which showed the status quo of the gradual disappearance of "smiling angel" finless porpoise with powerful artistic expression. Deji plaza said that through such soul-shaking works of art and theme activities, he hoped that more people could reflect on their indifference to nature and life, and called on more people to cry out from the bottom of their hearts: protect these "angels" who bring smiles to the world, coexist with every equal life and share the warmth from this world.

　　The "Noah’s Ark" came to Deji Outdoor Square to show all kinds of endangered animals.

　　At the same time, a huge boat-shaped device-"Noah’s Ark" also appeared in deji plaza Outdoor Square. This huge "Noah’s Ark" covers an area of about 600 square meters and has a double hull structure, with a total length of about 40 meters, a width of about 18 meters and a height of about 8 meters. In terms of material application, the hull uses a lot of wood grain plates, which truly restores the effect of wood grain hull and people’s original modeling imagination of Noah’s Ark. There are more than 1100 meters of steel and more than 1800 square meters of wood in the cabin, which makes it more in line with the hull structure and more integrated.

　　"Ark" has a video viewing and experience space of 150 square meters. Through 10 sets of world-class projection and audio equipment and the overall super-large screen in the cabin, the public welfare propaganda film for saving endangered animals is broadcast, bringing an immersive audio-visual experience to the audience. On the deck at the top of the Ark, highly restored models of dozens of endangered animals, such as Asian elephants, mountain zebras, polar bears, South China tigers and elk, were also exhibited.

　　Guarding the Yangtze River Beach and Opening the "Popular Science Lecture Hall for Endangered Animals"

　　Deji plaza has also launched a large-scale public welfare environmental protection activity along the Yangtze River "Yangtze River Beauty Plan", recruiting volunteers to go to the beaches along the Yangtze River to collect and sort garbage, contributing to changing the environmental status of the mother river and improving the living environment of the Yangtze finless porpoise. Up to now, four activities have been held. Volunteers, mainly parents and children, went to Qiaobei River Beach, Daqiao Park and Yanziji River Beach in Muyan Scenic Area to carry out activities such as garbage collection and biological knowledge popularization. Deji plaza hopes that the accumulated collection can create a clean home for the finless porpoise.

　　In addition, during the 10th anniversary celebration, deji plaza will carefully select ten premium charity gift packages, each of which contains single items provided by several brands, and the amount of gift packages ranges from 6,000 yuan to 35,000 yuan. All the proceeds from the sales will be donated to the Nanjing finless porpoise protection association for the Yangtze finless porpoise protection project.

　　Recently, deji plaza will also open a special "Popular Science Lecture Hall for Endangered Animals", which will be built into a classroom for children by opening up a space in the square. Experts from Nanjing finless porpoise protection association will come to the scene to explain the knowledge about endangered animals to children. Join the live interactive session to make the class more rich and interesting.
