On December 12th, Country Garden Holdings Limited announced that the directors’ salary was adjusted.

According to the announcement, in combination with the actual business needs of the industry and the company, Ms. Yang Huiyan, Mr. Mo Bin, Ms. Yang Ziying, executive directors of Country Garden, and Mr. Chen Nai, non-executive directors, offered to reduce their salaries, and signed a supplementary agreement and a supplementary letter of appointment with the company on November 1, 2023, which will be the latest annual salary adjustment for directors as follows (adopted by the board of directors of the company on the date of this announcement and effective on November 1, 2023): Yang Huiyan will be adjusted from 370,000 yuan to.

It is understood that Country Garden has made several adjustments to executive compensation in the past two years.By 2023, executive compensation will drop by 86% compared with 2021.These executives include the vice president of the company headquarters, the general manager of the functional center and above, and the regional president.

According to Country Garden’s official micro-display, the whole group tried its best to reduce administrative expenses, all of which were based on the principle of zero, and unnecessary expenses were not spent. Rigid expenses were reduced as much as possible through integration and intensification. In 2023, administrative expenses were significantly reduced by nearly 60% compared with 2021.

At present, Country Garden has cancelled all senior executives’ car allocation. When there is a real need for work, it can achieve intensive vehicle cost control and cost reduction by applying for official car allocation or using its own car. For all group buses including the former senior executives’ car allocation, assets are revitalized through internal public bidding and foreign workers’ debt repayment. In addition, including the reimbursement of senior executives’ medical examinations and the free canteen for senior executives, etc. have also been cancelled.

Streamlining organizational structure: 14 to 7

Recently, Country Garden has adjusted its organizational structure and merged 14 regional companies into 7 new regions: Hebei and Beijing merged into North China; Shandong and northern Jiangsu merged into Lusu region, northwest and Shaanxi merged into central and western regions, Anhui and Zhejiang merged into Zhejiang-Anhui region, Jiangxi and Fujian merged into Jiangxi-Fujian region, Yunnan and Sichuan merged into Sichuan-Yunnan region, and Guangxi and Jiangzhong merged into Jiangzhong region.

In this regard, Country Garden said that under the current industry situation, this adjustment is aimed at further improving the adaptability between the organization and the business, promoting flat and efficient management, complementing the available resources, and doing their best to ensure the realization of the strategic goal of "guaranteeing delivery".

Yang Huiyan said at the management meeting that the overall organizational structure of the company has reached a relatively stable stage after certain adjustments at the group headquarters and regional project level. What we need to do next is to lock in outstanding talents, adhere to the open and transparent mechanism of selecting and employing people and cultivating talents, and better improve the short, medium and long-term salary and incentive mechanism.

Guaranteed delivery: It is estimated that the delivery will exceed 400,000 sets next year.

Country Garden said that ensuring delivery is the company’s vital corporate responsibility and the safety bottom line of the property market.

According to public information, in 2022, Country Garden Group and its joint ventures and affiliated companies delivered nearly 700,000 houses, ranking first in the industry in terms of delivery volume. In the first 11 months of 2023, the Group has delivered more than 500,000 houses with a total delivery area of 60.43 million square meters, involving 240 cities in 31 provinces (municipalities and autonomous regions), and the delivery volume once again ranks first in the industry.

At the management meeting of Country Garden Group in December, Yang Huiyan pointed out that in the next 12 months, the delivery challenge will enter the deep water area.The delivery volume of Country Garden is expected to exceed 400,000 sets in 2024.The number is still huge. "Guaranteeing delivery is a very difficult but also very important task. I hope that everyone will be ready, attach great importance to it and do a good job in pre-planning."

Open source: "selling hematopoiesis"+"two wings" business

At Country Garden Group Management Meeting in December, Yang Huiyan, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Group, said:"The family will definitely support the company by selling iron, and the company will strive to explore an effective path to resume normal operations as soon as possible."

It is reported that, as the controlling shareholder, Yang Huiyan family has supported a total of about HK$ 41 billion by borrowing money, increasing stock holdings, purchasing bonds, and paying interest by shares. Among them, HK$ 1.56 billion interest-free unsecured loans were provided to the Group in 2021, and HK$ 5.05 billion was raised in December 2022 for interest-free unsecured loans to the Group.

(1) Promote sales and realize hematopoiesis.

Recently, the management and financial department of Country Garden Group conducted a sensitivity simulation analysis of the extreme situation that the company may face in its operation. Yang Huiyan said: "Under conservative calculation, as long as our inventory assets are sold normally, Country Garden will continue to maintain positive assets in the next decade even assuming that we don’t buy land, there is no tax reduction, and the new contribution of the two wings is not considered."

Mo Bin, president of Country Garden, said that what Country Garden is doing now is mainly hemostasis and blood transfusion. At the same time, it is necessary to cultivate internal strength, get through difficult times, and strive to increase sales and realize hematopoiesis, so that enterprises can truly return to the track of healthy development. In addition, Mo Bin stressed that in order to realize sales hematopoiesis, first, we should grasp the key sales nodes in December, increase the renovation of existing buildings, mobilize national marketing, strive to break through special revitalization and promote the return of cash. Second, we should pay close attention to the payment at the end of the year and do a good job in collecting overdue receivables at the end of the year. At the same time, it is necessary to plan the work of returning home during the Spring Festival in advance, and the returning areas should make full preparations in advance to prepare for a good start in supply and sales arrangements.

However, the current sales situation of Country Garden is still not optimistic.From January to November, 2023, the cumulative sales of Country Garden was 212.45 billion yuan, down 52% year-on-year, which was the largest year-on-year decline among the TOP30 housing enterprises. In addition, the monthly sales of Country Garden are still in a downward trend: since July this year, the sales of Country Garden have dropped sharply, of which the contracted sales in June was 16 billion yuan, which fell to 12.07 billion yuan in July, 7.98 billion yuan in August and 6.17 billion yuan in September respectively. In October, the sales volume was 6.31 billion yuan, compared with the previous month, but the latest data showed that the sales volume showed a downward trend again, and the sales volume in November was 6.11 billion yuan.

(2) Cultivate new business growth points

In addition to the real estate sector business, Country Garden is also making efforts in technology construction and escrow construction. It is reported that since June this year, Bozhilin robot under Country Garden has started to sell to the market. At present, it is mainly leased to buy and repurchased by old customers. In terms of agency construction, Phoenix Zhituo has added four new projects, including Qinhuangdao in Hebei, Luoyang in Henan, Shangqiu in Henan and Yancheng in Jiangsu, on the basis of the original projects since its establishment two months ago. Country Garden said that it will continue to cultivate new business growth points in the future.

CCTV News:The Spring Festival is coming, and it is the choice of many families to take family photos in the photo studio. The reporter recently visited the Beijing market and found that the passenger flow of many photo studios has increased significantly, and some places even have to make an appointment many days in advance.

Reporter:I am now in Dabei photo studio on Qianmen Street in Beijing. The staff told me that with the approach of the Spring Festival, more and more customers come here to take photos, especially the family photos are selling more and more hot.

Beijing consumers:Once a year, I added this family of five, and I took my parents with me. It was also the first time to take a photo with my baby.

Beijing consumers:Want to take a picture of her (mother) every year, (she) is a little nervous.

In the photo studio, the staff told reporters that in recent days, family photos, black and white and color headshots are still the main products in the store, and most customers are coming from this classic nostalgia.

Beijing consumers:We were born in the 1980s, and there weren’t many color photos at the beginning. It’s quite retro to bring children to take pictures.

Meng Qingyi, manager of Beijing Dabei Photography Front Store:At the end of the year, the passenger flow still increased. Usually, we take more than 200 photos (every day), but now we can take between 300 and 400 photos, mainly because we have more photos.

Reporter:Different from the traditional photo studio, we see more young people in this fast and fashionable photo studio in Xidan, Beijing. For them, taking a photo at the end of the year is the pursuit of a sense of ritual in life.

Beijing consumers:We want to shoot something academic, or something related to the New Year.

Beijing consumers:This suit is also suitable for the occasion, just in line with the new year atmosphere.

The reporter learned that with the continuation of Christmas and New Year’s products and the launch of family photo products in the Spring Festival, there are more choices of products in the photo studio at present. The price of a single person ranges from 300 to 500, and the daily reception volume has also increased by about 20% compared with usual.

Wang Xinwei, manager of a fast fashion photo studio in Beijing:Many customers choose to take a photo at the festival just to increase the sense of ceremony and send a circle of friends. Basically, every day is a full state, and weekends are full. The best sellers are Weiyang and Chiying in the national tide. Because it is red and Chinese style, customers will have more choices.

　　CCTV News:South Korean Presidential Palace Cheongwadae announced on the 8th that Moon Jae in will meet with a visiting high-level delegation from the DPRK on the 10th. Members of the delegation include Jin Yongnan, Chairman of the Standing Committee of the Supreme People’s Assembly of the DPRK, Jin Yuzheng, First Deputy Minister of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea, Cui Hui, Chairman of the State Sports Steering Committee, and Li Shanquan, Chairman of the Peaceful Reunification Committee of the Motherland. According to Xinhua News Agency, the DPRK delegation arrived at Incheon Airport in South Korea by special plane at noon on the 9th.

　　Who’s Jin Yuzheng? What is the future trend of the situation on the peninsula? Will the representatives of North Korea, South Korea and the United States interact outside of sports events? The PyeongChang Winter Olympics in 2018 was full of topics before it started.

　　Rare! Kim Jong-un once only took his twin sister to inspect the troops.

　　Jin Yuzheng is the daughter of the late North Korean leader Kim Jong Il and the younger sister of Kim Jong Un.

　　On March 9, 2014, Jin Yuzheng made her first "official appearance" in a report on North Korean national television. At that time, Kim Jong-un was elected as the representative of Baitoushan Constituency No.111 with 100% support rate. Jin Yuzheng, known as "Comrade", appeared for the first time in the report, and a "close-up" of her voting was shown.

　　On November 27th, 2014, Kim Jong-un inspected the 426 Animation Studio. Korean Central News Agency mentioned Jin Yuzheng, Vice Minister of the Central Committee of the Labor Party, when introducing the accompanying personnel. This was the first time that the North Korean media publicized Jin Yuzheng’s position, which attracted the attention of foreign media.

　　After that, Jin Yuzheng can always be seen in Kim Jong-un’s activities reported by North Korea’s official media. From watching performances, to inspecting factories and museums, to inspecting military training activities, Jin Yuzheng’s name can always be found in the list of accompanying persons.

　　From March 9, 2014 to March 12, 2015, Jin Yuzheng accompanied Kim Jong-un on 25 inspections. Since November, 2014, Jin Yuzheng has been accompanying Kim Jong-un to inspect more and more frequently, accounting for more than half of the total times. Generally speaking, Jin Yuzheng’s people’s livelihood and cultural performances are twice as many as her military and political visits. However, since November 2014, her visits to the army have been basically the same as other activities. In January 2015, Jin Yuzheng’s public activities were particularly active, and he accompanied Kim Jong-un on seven inspections.

　　On March 12, 2015, Kim Jong-un, the top leader of North Korea, visited a defense squadron in the front post on the east coast of North Korea. In Korean Central News Agency’s report, only the name of Kim Jong-un’s sister Jin Yuzheng was mentioned, but the names of other accompanying persons were not mentioned. Judging from the pictures released by the Workers’ Party of Korea, Jin Yuzheng not only accompanied Kim Jong-un to inspect the whole process, but also participated in the final photo. This kind of situation is rare. Usually, the entourage of Kim Jong-un does not take part in the group photo during the inspection activities, and it is the first time that only Kim Jong-un’s brother and sister inspect the troops in the official media of North Korea.

　　At present, it is a critical moment for the DPRK and the ROK to release goodwill and improve bilateral relations. Kim Jong-un sent Jin Yuzheng to represent North Korea in the opening ceremony of the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, and the position of the younger sister in North Korea’s political arena is self-evident.

　　The South Korean side also attaches great importance to the first entry of North Korean Kim family members into Korea. A spokesman for South Korea’s Cheongwadae said that all preparations would be made to ensure the smooth visit of the DPRK high-level delegation to South Korea to participate in the Olympic Games, and called Jin Yuzheng’s visit "of great significance". As Jin Yuzheng is an important figure in the Labor Party, the ROK expects that she will have considerable discretion in this trip, which is more important than Jin Yongnan’s coming to hankyung alone, and the ROK and the DPRK may take this opportunity to have a more meaningful dialogue.

　　The close interaction between the DPRK and the ROK, the United States and Japan secretly "make bad"

　　The 23rd Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea in 2018 is destined to be an "unusual" Winter Olympics. Before that, the Vice President of the United States invited "special guests" to pour cold water on the relations between the DPRK and the ROK, and then members of the North Korean "Baitoushan family" (Kim family) entered Korea for the first time. During this period, it was reported that Trump’s daughter would attend the closing ceremony of the Winter Olympics and the South Korean Unification Ministry made intensive statements four times in three days … … The "feature film" of the 2018 Winter Olympics has not yet started, and the "trailer" alone is as wonderful as any Hollywood movie.

　　At the beginning of the new year in 2018, the DPRK and the ROK changed the normal state of "arrogance" and "angry words", shelved the dispute between nuclear weapons and Sadr, and launched active "ice-breaking" talks around the Winter Olympics in a "double pause" posture, which achieved many results. For example, the DPRK and the ROK will jointly hold the flag of the Korean Peninsula at the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics, the Korean art troupe will perform the opening ceremony in South Korea, and the DPRK and the ROK have expressed their positive will to improve the bilateral relations in the future … …

　　At the same time of close interaction between the DPRK and the ROK, the United States began to "pour cold water" on the slowly warming DPRK-ROK relations.

　　US President Donald Trump confirmed last month that he would send Vice President Burns as the head of the US delegation to attend the PyeongChang Winter Olympics. However, it is not known what attitude Burns will take to intervene in the situation on the Korean Peninsula. A White House official said that Burns believed that the DPRK wanted to use the Winter Olympics to "engage in propaganda activities" and he intended to "show up" at the Winter Olympics to "offset" the DPRK’s influence and self-promotion efforts.

　　According to Washington post, Burns will invite a "special guest", namely Fred, the father of the late American college student Otto Warmbier, to visit Korea. Otto Warmbier was charged and convicted of conspiring to subvert the state in North Korea, and was detained for more than a year. He was released to China in June last year, but he was in a coma and died a few days later. This incident once prompted the State Council to issue a travel ban to the DPRK.

　　It is also reported that US President Trump’s daughter ivanka will lead a presidential delegation to attend the closing ceremony of the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics. Some South Korean media analysts said that if ivanka really attended the closing ceremony of PyeongChang Winter Olympics as reported by CNN, and Kim Jong-un’s younger sister Jin Yuzheng also went south for a pre-meeting, it might be possible for them to meet in the closing ceremony of Winter Olympics.

　　The DPRK, the United States and South Korea are playing hot, and Japan is also joining in the fun. According to the news released by the Japanese government on the 3rd, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will meet with Burns before attending the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics, suggesting that the US-South Korea joint military exercise should not be scaled down after the Winter Olympics.

　　… …

　　The Korean Peninsula crisis has lasted for more than 20 years, and the biggest obstacle is the "return to Asia-Pacific strategy" of the United States. However, this "door-to-door talk" between the DPRK and the ROK is a sincere attempt by the DPRK. It is hoped that with the efforts of all parties, the stability of the DPRK and the ROK will be further developed, and the rare "warm drama" between the DPRK and the ROK will not become a "farce" with no end in some countries.

　　In August, the temperature rises, the rainfall increases, and the humid and hot weather is conducive to the growth and reproduction of microorganisms and vectors, causing the spread of many infectious diseases.

　　Experts from Henan CDC hereby remind residents to focus on hand-foot-mouth disease, fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome, brucellosis, novel coronavirus infection, monkeypox and food poisoning this month. In addition, special attention should be paid to the prevention of extreme weather events and accidental injuries of children and adolescents during summer vacation.

　　Key tips

　　First, hand, foot and mouth disease

　　Hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) is a common infectious disease in children, which is caused by various enterovirus infections. Children under 5 years old are more likely to be infected through close contact, respiratory droplets and digestive tract. Recently, the incidence of hand, foot and mouth disease in our province has decreased, but it is still at a high level, exceeding the level of the same period in the past two years. We should pay attention to the health status of young children, maintain good personal hygiene habits, and regularly clean and disinfect the family and the surrounding environment.

　　Protective measures:

　　1. Pay attention to personal hygiene, especially hand hygiene. Wash your hands with clean water, hand sanitizer or soap before touching your mouth and nose, before eating and defecating, before processing food, after touching herpes/respiratory secretions, after changing diapers or handling items contaminated by feces; Cover your nose and mouth with a handkerchief or paper towel when sneezing or coughing, then wrap the paper towel and throw it into the covered trash can.

　　2. Do not share towels or other personal items with others; Do not contact patients and their contaminated articles, and pollute the environment; Do not swim or play in the unsterilized swimming pool. During the epidemic of hand, foot and mouth disease, try to avoid taking children to participate in group activities.

　　3. Always clean and disinfect the surfaces of articles or objects that are often in contact, such as toys and furniture. After cleaning, wipe them with chlorine-containing disinfectant or soak them for disinfection. After 30 minutes, wipe them with clean water or rinse them off.

　　Second, fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome

　　Fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome is a new infectious disease caused by a new Bunia virus, which is spread by tick bites. The rain increases in August, and the high temperature and humid environment is suitable for the growth and reproduction of ticks. When you are active in parks, fields and other places with dense vegetation, you should be well protected to prevent ticks from biting.

　　Protective measures:

　　1. Personal protection should be done during outdoor activities, such as wearing long-sleeved underwear, tightening trouser legs, and applying repellent to bare skin, so as to avoid sitting and lying for a long time in the main habitats of ticks, such as grass and Woods, and prevent ticks from biting. Don’t pull hard after being bitten by a tick, spray it with alcohol and then clamp the tick head with pointed tweezers to peel off slowly.

　　2. Management of infected persons. In general, it is not necessary to isolate patients. Medical staff and patients’ families in medical institutions should do personal protection when caring for patients, and the patients’ blood, secretions, excreta and the environment and articles polluted by them can be disinfected by means of high temperature, high pressure and chlorine-containing disinfectant.

　　Third, brucellosis

　　Brucellosis (brucellosis) is a zoonotic disease caused by Brucella. The main clinical manifestations are fever, hyperhidrosis, joint pain and so on. Sheep are the main source of infection. People in pastoral areas, aquaculture and other occupations can be infected through skin and mucous membrane contact during slaughter, peeling and milking. Eating undercooked meat, drinking raw milk or inhaling contaminated droplets can also lead to brucellosis. In recent years, brucellosis has also occurred from time to time in non-pastoral areas, so we should pay attention to self-protection.

　　Protective measures:

　　1, sheep breeding, grazing, trading, slaughtering and other professional people should pay attention to daily personal protection, timely medical treatment after illness.

　　2. Try to avoid direct contact with any animals, especially those of unknown origin.

　　3. Do not eat undercooked meat, eggs, milk and other animal products. Choose fresh and safe animal food raw materials, and pay attention to the separation of raw and cooked food when processing.

　　Fourth, monkeypox

　　Monkeypox is a zoonotic disease caused by monkeypox virus infection, and its clinical manifestations are mainly fever, rash and lymphadenopathy. In the past, it mainly occurred in Central Africa and West Africa. Since 2022, monkeypox outbreaks have occurred in many non-endemic areas around the world, with a mortality rate of about 0.1%. Most cases have mild clinical manifestations, and the deaths are mainly people with low immunity such as untreated HIV-infected people. Since June 2023, many provinces in China have reported many cases of monkeypox, most of which are young and middle-aged men, mainly transmitted through sexual contact. Men who have sex with men are the key groups infected with monkeypox. People are generally susceptible to monkeypox virus, and smallpox vaccine has a certain degree of cross-protection against monkeypox virus.

　　Protective measures:

　　1. Entry-exit personnel should pay attention to the epidemic information of monkeypox in destination countries and regions, and avoid contact with monkeypox-like symptoms, rodents, primates and other animals.

　　2. Returnees who have a history of suspicious contact abroad should do a good job in self-health monitoring to avoid close contact with others. In case of monkeypox-like symptoms such as fever, rash and lymphadenopathy, they should take the initiative to see a doctor and truthfully report their epidemiological history.

　　3. Key people need to raise awareness of prevention and reduce high-risk behaviors. If they have a history of suspicious contact, they should consciously monitor their health and take the initiative to see a doctor if symptoms appear.

　　V. novel coronavirus infection

　　Recently, the number of people infected in novel coronavirus in our province has shown a downward trend. The elderly, key people with basic diseases and low immunity still need to adhere to personal protection and actively vaccinate. Those who have not completed basic immunization and are not infected with Covid-19 should complete basic immunization first.

　　Protective measures:

　　1. Actively vaccinate. Elderly people aged 60 and above, people aged 18-59 with serious basic diseases, people with low immune function, people with high risk of infection, and people who have completed basic immunization or have been infected with Covid-19 should be actively vaccinated to further strengthen their autoimmune ability.

　　2. Pay attention to personal protection. Residents should wear masks in their daily trips, minimize unnecessary gatherings and keep social distance. Maintain good personal and environmental hygiene, wash hands frequently, often ventilate, pay attention to rest, pay attention to nutrition and enhance physical fitness.

　　3. Use drugs rationally and see a doctor as needed. After infection, residents should take corresponding treatment measures according to the severity of their own symptoms, implement self-care at home, reduce contact with their roommates, rationally use symptomatic drugs according to relevant guidelines, do a good job in health monitoring, and go to medical institutions in time if the condition worsens.

　　Six, food poisoning

　　In August, the temperature is high and the humidity is high, and food is perishable. Improper food processing or storage can easily lead to food poisoning. Recently, food poisoning incidents have occurred frequently in many parts of the country. People must pay attention to food hygiene when eating at home or out. When they have symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea, they should induce vomiting as soon as possible to reduce the absorption of toxins and send them to the hospital for treatment in time.

　　Protective measures:

　　1. Avoid eating in public places without health protection. Buy food in supermarkets or vegetable markets with health protection. Try not to buy bulk food.

　　2. Fresh food should be fully heated before eating, and attention should be paid to the cleanliness of processed cold and raw foods. Avoid mixing raw and cooked food, mixing chopping boards and kitchen knives, and prevent cross-contamination of raw and cooked food. Try not to leave any food in each meal. Don’t store the leftover food in the refrigerator for too long. It must be heated thoroughly before eating.

　　3. Develop good personal hygiene habits, wash your hands before and after meals and before processing food.

　　VII. Extreme weather events

　　With global warming, extreme weather events occur frequently. Typhoon No.5 "Du Surui" landed in Fujian on July 28, and the residual circulation went all the way north, resulting in large-scale heavy rainfall in Henan, Shandong, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and Liaoning, with heavy rain in the local area. Recently, there have been heavy rains in many places in our province, and heavy rains have occurred in some counties and cities, accompanied by complex strong convective weather. At present, the impact of Typhoon Du Surui on Henan Province has ended, but it is still rainy in our province in the near future due to the strengthening of the westward extension of the subtropical high, the uplift of typhoon Kanu and the windward slope in mountainous areas.

　　At present, it is in the critical period of "seven downs and eight highs" (from late July to early August). Due to the influence of typhoon and subtropical high, our province will usher in the humid and sultry weather of "rainfall+high temperature". The public should pay close attention to the warning signals of meteorological disasters, respond in time, and do a good job in heatstroke prevention and cooling.

　　Eight, children and adolescents accidental injury

　　Summer vacation is a period of high incidence of accidental injuries among children and adolescents. While celebrating the holiday, special attention should be paid to preventing accidental injuries such as drowning, traffic accidents, falls, poisoning, burns, electric shock, airway foreign bodies, and animal bites.

　　Protective measures:

　　1. Parents should carry out safety inspection on daily necessities at home, so as to eliminate those foreseeable and avoidable safety hazards, such as hot water bottles, hot water cups and kitchen utensils with hot soup, which should be placed out of children’s reach; Household electrical equipment and power supply should be kept away from children’s reach; Take good care of household chemicals, and it is best to store medicines in safe packages that prevent children from opening them.

　　2. In terms of children’s diet and daily life, it should be fresh and non-toxic to prevent food pollution and deterioration. Teach children not to run or cry when eating, and correct the bad habits of children’s mouth contents.

　　3. Never leave children alone by the open water source. No matter in the water at home, indoors, outdoors or other places, the distance between parents and children should be within reach and concentrate on nursing. Parents must educate their children not to swim in dangerous waters/water bodies or informal swimming pools to prevent drowning. If you encounter a drowning companion, don’t rescue yourself by force. You should shout for help and ask people around you to help you.

　　4. Pay attention to cultivate children’s safety awareness, guide children to obey traffic rules, don’t chase and fight on the side of the road, and sit in the child safety seat and fasten the seat belt when traveling by car.

In the wheat field of Fangguan Town, Li Keqiang talked with grain farmers, harvesters from other provinces and grain merchants. Everyone reported that this year’s wheat harvest was good and the grain was full, and Li Keqiang was very happy. He said that it is now a "bumper harvest in the field", and it is necessary to pay close attention to harvesting the "bumper harvest in hand" and do a good job in storing and storing the "bumper harvest in storage". Wheat is one of the main rations in Chinese, and the place where we are standing now is basically the last harvest stop in the main wheat producing areas of Huang-Huai-Hai. Overall, the national wheat production this year is higher than last year, and the harvest is a foregone conclusion. This reassured people and laid the foundation for stable grain production throughout the year. China’s grain supply is abundant, which is very important for stabilizing prices. To keep the economy running in a reasonable range, two important indicators are stable employment and stable prices, and food and energy are the basic supports for stabilizing prices. In recent years, we have been implementing a prudent monetary policy, and there is no excess currency. At present, the main indicators of monetary policy are in the normal range. It is very important to prevent inflation and leave room for flexible implementation of monetary policy in response to new challenges. This year’s bumper wheat harvest has guaranteed China’s own demand and the stability of China’s grain market, and to a certain extent, it has also contributed to the stability of the global grain market. Seeing farmers sowing corn by machine, Li Keqiang carefully examined the soil moisture. He said that if summer is late for one day and autumn is late for ten days, it is necessary to implement the summer sowing area, so as to ensure a bumper harvest of autumn grain and add weight to the national food security.

Li Keqiang came to Dapu Village, inspected the dried wheat, sat around and talked with the villagers, and worked out the cost and income of growing grain together. Everyone reported that the price of agricultural materials has increased this year, but the state has increased subsidies many times, and the market food price has also increased. Calculated income is higher than in previous years. Li Keqiang said, food is the most important thing for the people, and food stabilizes the world. Your growing grain has increased your income and guaranteed more people three meals a day. Let’s work together to secure more than 1.4 billion jobs in Chinese.

Li Keqiang listened to the report on energy supply in Hebei Province. In Zhuozhou Jingyuan Thermal Power Company, he learned in detail about the number of generating hours, coal consumption level and the implementation of the bail-out policy, inspected the coal yard, and encouraged enterprises to make full efforts and generate more electricity. Li Keqiang said that development is the basis and key to solve all problems in China. Now is the key period to meet the peak summer. It is necessary to release the advanced coal production capacity and fully exploit it, implement the long-term coal supply, further strengthen the power supply, resolutely prevent power cuts, and ensure economic operation and basic people’s livelihood. It is necessary to increase the efficient and clean coal-fired power production capacity in an orderly manner through expansion and transformation, and accelerate the construction of pumped storage projects, which not only increases the power supply capacity, but also provides support for the development of new energy sources such as wind, light and electricity, and improves the consumption capacity. He emphasized that China is a contributor and beneficiary of world trade, and the stability of the international energy market is beneficial to all countries. Making good use of China’s coal-based energy resource endowment is not only conducive to enhancing its own energy security capacity, but also conducive to world energy prices and the stability of the international industrial chain supply chain.

Li Keqiang fully affirmed the achievements of Hebei’s economic and social development, and hoped that under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, he would work hard and innovate, push economic development to a new level and continuously improve people’s livelihood and well-being.

Xiao Jie and He Lifeng accompanied the inspection.

Recently, the medical profession has made such a sound:In order to be promoted, hospitals tend to give priority to first-line medical care against epidemic diseases, but this team is too large. Therefore, without first-line medical care for various reasons, promotion is basically hopeless and in the foreseeable future.

Everyone’s spit is concentrated in two aspects:

First, there are differences on the definition of front-line personnel.Some people did not enter the isolation ward, but they also treated patients in clinical departments, and lacked protective clothing and other equipment. At the worst of the epidemic, their danger was not lower than that of the isolation ward, so they trembled and took the initiative to isolate their families, but they were not included in the first-line file. In fact, the isolation ward was even considered as the safest department in the hospital at a certain time, and the protector won the world.

Second, there are many medical staff in hospitals all over the country actively signing up for the first line, and the reserve echelon is large enough.However, China’s anti-epidemic effect was so high that many medical workers did not wait for the opportunity to go to the front line, and the epidemic ended. The results show that tens of thousands of medical staff in Fangcang Hospital have zero infection and are relatively safe, and the aid workers in Hubei have received not bad rewards both mentally and materially, and now they enjoy preferential treatment in promotion, further crowding out the opportunities of non-frontline personnel.Not only a little worried, is it really reasonable to give priority to the promotion of doctors in the front line of anti-epidemic?

And recently"Abolish the deputy chief physician and chief physician, and abolish the doctor promotion system!"The voice is high.

Xu Yonggang, a magic dentist, thinks:

The evaluation mechanism for promotion to full and deputy titles has always been only scientific research, papers and patents as important indicators, and at the same time, it has created the largest academic misconduct groups and individuals in the world and the most intensive academic industry chain.

It can’t be said that all patents of medical research papers are false, and there are outstanding people in any industry who lead the development of medicine, but there are too few. The vast majority of medical scientific research, whether self-written or plagiarized, takes promotion as the original intention. From project establishment to research, it has neither clinical practical significance nor promotion prospect, but basically it will produce "achievements" and eventually be labeled as "domestic leading level" or "domestic advanced level", which also gives medical staff a relatively objective understanding of the domestic level of China medicine, and medical staff are tacitly aware of this.

This year, the promotion evaluation mechanism of many hospitals has been changed, which has reduced the proportion of scientific research papers in principle, and increased clinical medical records, personal performance, social evaluation, patient satisfaction and so on under the premise of giving priority to the first line of anti-epidemic, which has strong flexibility in the implementation process due to the lack of focus and quantitative indicators.

Starting from the essence of medical treatment,The most reliable evaluation should be patient satisfaction, which can truly reflect the doctor’s skill and service level, but because this index is more difficult to quantify,The space for fraud can even exceed that of scientific research papers, so it can’t be referenced in the evaluation, which is a serious injury.

Both the old standards and the new evaluation standards have disadvantages objectively, and this promotion system has done great harm to the medical industry.

First, it destroyed the relationship between cadres and the masses.The leaders of all hospitals have repeatedly optimized the evaluation criteria in order to be fair and just as far as possible, but they still can’t satisfy all the medical staff, and the spearhead and pressure are pushed to the leadership and personnel departments.

Second, destroy the relationship between colleagues.In order to compete for the quota, all means are used, and the surface is calm, but in fact it is undercurrent.

Third, destroy the relationship between superiors and subordinates.The director of the department has to make a difficult balance between adjusting the work of the promoted person and maintaining the operation of the department, which is easy to lose sight of one thing and lead to a stiff relationship.

This system affects not only the interests of doctors, but also the interests of patients.If doctors can’t concentrate on treating diseases and saving lives, but they spend their time catering to policies, practicing fraud and speculating, cheating on each other and so on, it will mean disaster for patients.

The basis of the promotion of professional titles is to control the proportion of posts.

However, controlling the proportion of posts cannot maintain the old, middle-aged and young structure of hospitals and the construction of talent echelon! The common dilemma of hospitals is:More and more senior doctors are getting together and retiring slowly, and fewer and fewer new recruits are leaving, resulting in high resignation rate, resulting in tension in senior positions.The solution should be to introduce more new people to expand the denominator, not to reduce the numerator.

Since there are so many disadvantages, why must we control our posts? There seems to be only one answer left,Control wage file. Every time you add one more post, you will increase your expenditure, and you will get a higher salary after retirement.

howeverObviously, the salary of medical staff should not be controlled.And this year’s medical reform and rectification, especially the space for medical equipment rebates has basically been eliminated.

In fact, many doctors are looking forward to this day. Everyone hopes to have a reasonable sunshine income and use wages to reflect the value of labor. After the epidemic, most hospitals have reduced their financial performance and their income is directly based on wages. However, wages have not been raised accordingly.

Under such circumstances, it is necessary to raise wages reasonably.

It is the most realistic, feasible and least costly scheme to abolish the senior post system and automatically raise the salary scale according to the qualifications of medical staff. On the one hand, it can stabilize the medical team and mood, on the other hand, it can let young doctors see the prospects, reduce turnover and establish a lasting sense of professional belonging.

Then, once you get rid of the pressure of promotion, will it make doctors lose their goals, muddle along their qualifications, lack the motivation of scientific research and innovation and be mediocre?

He believes that not only will it not, but it will make it easier for outstanding talents to produce results, becauseScientific research that does not aim at promotion will be more pure, scientific research projects will be sharply reduced to fine, but investment will be saved, and the survival of the fittest will play the self-purification function of the industry.

If the rules are abolished and the promotion system is abolished, it is conservatively predicted that more than 95% of medical research, papers and patents in China will disappear completely, which will inevitably lead to the instantaneous collapse of that huge industrial chain, and the interest chain involved is complicated, and the vested interests have the right to make rules, which is a game in another dimension.

People in the medical profession express their views:

@ Chunqiu:Although this proposal is good, it is not realistic. If we just cancel the deputy director and the chief physician. Then it is not good for most departments and doctors. You can modify the evaluation and assessment system. However, without such classification, just one night shift and duty will affect the normal operation of a department. Personally, I think our current assessment system has not adapted to the development of the hospital now, nor can it reflect the ability and dedication of doctors. We all say that a department depends on the efforts of the whole team. However, it cannot be denied that sometimes having a master in a department will improve the influence of the department, but the income and honor won by a master in technology are not the most.

@ Cloud light and wind light:Resolutely supporting the cancellation of the so-called evaluation of sub-high and regular high professional titles is meaningless, but it wastes doctors’ time to concentrate on their work. Some people are busy with the promotion of professional titles every year, some are busy with hospital interpersonal relationships, and some are busy writing so-called papers that are not practical, which wastes manpower and material resources and has no meaning at all. I hope to cancel it as soon as possible so that doctors can do their work wholeheartedly.

@NATURE：If there is no benchmark to eat from the same pot, who will do scientific research? Anyone can learn clinical skills in three months, and it is really difficult to do scientific research without getting started for three years. If you don’t ask for it, then no one will do scientific research, and the country’s scientific and technological development will soon go backwards. The disadvantages of big pot rice appeared decades ago. Needless to say, all walks of life must be divided into levels in order to develop healthily. As for the evaluation of professional titles, SCI is still the most fair evaluation index at present, and people have to have pressure to have the motivation to go up. However, in view of the serious fraud at present, the effective way is to strictly investigate and control, and not to engage in administrative management, but to be an expert. The implementation of the representative system is to try to avoid making up the numbers with low scores, recommend those who make good ones and make high ones, and gradually improve the current disadvantages.

@ Dr. Huang Dentistry:This is just like the college entrance examination. Although people say that the college entrance examination is unfair every year, there is a college entrance examination every year because it is the best platform under the current conditions. The current rating method is the same. As long as you can find a more reasonable and beneficial evaluation method, you can definitely replace it. The key is that there is no …

@ Chen Gongjian:In fact, as a doctor, the most important responsibility is to cure diseases, so all medical-related evaluations should be based on the efficiency of treatment! The cure rate was the core of the medical system in Song Dynasty. In modern society, the main body of evaluating the therapeutic effectiveness of diseases is physical and chemical indicators, in fact, the improvement ratio of patients’ subjective symptoms should also be added. In addition, the incidence of related diseases, long-term recurrence rate, etc. should be weighted in proportion. But in this way, how many medical staff who are now in high positions can still have the face to continue saying: I am a doctor? ! As for other derivative fields such as papers, it is enough to set attractive special awards.

@ 中中中:Most of those who say that they want to abolish it are blind to the eye. People in any industry should be graded to distinguish the good from the bad. The professional title evaluation system formed over the years has contributed a lot to distinguishing talents, and has also formed many recognized talent evaluation standards, such as academic qualifications "Promotion with relevant educational experience", such as working years "Promotion with sufficient work experience", such as inter-provincial evaluation "Try to eliminate human feelings evaluation". For example, the professional business exam "Must be qualified for professional knowledge and clinical skills".

@ 味味:The wage system in China is too complicated, which is neither scientific nor reasonable. The salary items are full and the salary amount is very skinny. It is better to learn from the west and implement the annual salary system! The unfair distribution of bonuses and coefficients has been eliminated. I have been an attending physician for 20 years, and I don’t feel too excited to be promoted to higher vocational colleges. Apart from not publishing papers in journals, I have also written papers that have not been published. Although I have received many invitations to write and send, I have not stepped out of this step. I wrote a lot of popular science articles, and I also sent some in WeChat official account, with a total reading of tens of thousands. I think that if the paper is too utilitarian just for the title, it is better to write some popular science articles. In fact, many promotions are just for that benefit, to get more money, and there is only a hollow reputation. Maybe I won’t be promoted to higher vocational education before I retire, but I don’t regret it, just a little regret. At the thought of the patient’s trust and satisfaction, I still feel a lot of comfort and satisfaction when I see the red banner.

What do you think of "abolishing the deputy chief physician and the chief physician, and abolishing the doctor promotion system!" What about the advice?

Many people have had this feeling that their chest suddenly "thumped" as if their heart had stopped. This situation is likely to be premature beats.

Premature beat is that a heartbeat rhythm is advanced, and there is a long interval after beating ahead. Some patients with less premature beats have no obvious feeling, but occasionally feel some discomfort or slight palpitation in the chest. If premature beats occur frequently, it will cause symptoms such as palpitation, shortness of breath, chest tightness and fatigue, and even worsen the original heart disease, which requires active treatment.

Western medicine treatment of premature beats is mainly "anti-"

For the treatment of premature beats, the traditional western medicine treatment method is to choose antiarrhythmic drugs, which only aim at a certain level and a certain part of arrhythmia, ignoring the interaction between factors at the same level and the interaction between different levels, and then aiming at the single cause of arrhythmia, blindly adopting the "anti-"treatment method can not solve the fundamental problem. Moreover, the side effects of antiarrhythmic drugs are increasingly obvious, which not only has serious extracardiac toxicity and leads to liver and kidney damage, but also may cause more complicated arrhythmia and even worsen the original arrhythmia symptoms. Another point is that western medicine can not effectively treat bradyarrhythmia, so there is no good way to treat arrhythmia such as sinus bradycardia with ventricular premature beats.

The treatment of premature beats with traditional Chinese medicine focuses on "regulating" 　 　 　 　 　 　 　 　 　 　 　 　 　

Shensong Yangxin capsule, a traditional Chinese medicine, has realized the thinking change from "resistance" to "modulation" in clinical treatment of premature beats. "Modulation" is the whole regulation, which takes the integration of various factors and mechanisms for regulating premature beats as the core, and starts from the interrelation among molecules, cells, tissues, the whole heart and even the whole human body, so as to regulate the autonomic nervous function of the heart, block multi-ion channels, improve the metabolism of myocardial cells, and restore the whole function of the heart, and has a good curative effect on all kinds of premature beats.

In the evidence-based medical research of Shensong Yangxin Capsule, which was attended by more than 500 doctors from 36 3A hospitals in China, 188 cases of non-organic ventricular premature beats and 671 cases of organic ventricular premature beats caused by heart diseases such as coronary heart disease and myocarditis were treated with Shensong Yangxin Capsule. Compared with the curative effect of slow heart rhythm, the results of 24-hour dynamic electrocardiogram examination show that Shensong Yangxin capsule has a good therapeutic effect on both non-organic ventricular premature beats and organic ventricular premature beats, and its curative effect is significantly better than that of slow heart rhythm, and there is no adverse cardiac reaction. By taking Shensong Yangxin Capsule, the symptoms such as palpitation, shortness of breath, chest tightness, fatigue, dizziness and sweating disappeared.

In addition, the curative effect of Shensong Yangxin Capsule on sinus bradycardia with ventricular premature beats and heart failure with ventricular premature beats has also been confirmed by evidence-based medical research.

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center clinical study of Shensong Yangxin Capsule in the treatment of sinus bradycardia with ventricular premature beats, which was jointly participated by 33 3A hospitals in China, showed that the number of premature beats in the treatment group decreased by 1827 times /24 hours, the rate of decrease of premature beats was 71.01%, the heart rate increased by 6.25 times/minute, and the heart rate percentage increased by 11.38%. The research results show that Shensong Yangxin Capsule can improve ventricular premature beats safely and effectively, and at the same time, it can increase sinus heart rate, thus screening out effective and safe therapeutic drugs for patients with sinus bradycardia and ventricular premature beats at home and abroad.

Evidence-based medical research on Shensong Yangxin Capsule in the treatment of heart failure with ventricular premature beats was completed by 31 domestic 3A hospitals for two years. The results confirmed that Shensong Yangxin Capsule can significantly reduce the number of patients with 24-hour ventricular premature beats and significantly improve the decline rate of 24-hour ventricular premature beats on the basis of standardized treatment of chronic heart failure. At the same time, it can increase the left ventricular ejection fraction, improve the cardiac function classification, reduce the plasma concentration of pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-ProBNP), increase the walking distance of 6 minutes, improve the quality of life of patients, and have good safety.

Based on the research results of Shensong Yangxin Capsule in treating premature beats, Shensong Yangxin Capsule was recommended by China Expert Consensus of Ventricular Arrhythmia in 2020.

According to the data released by China National Intellectual Property Administration on January 16th, by the end of 2023, the number of effective invention patents in China (excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan) was 4.015 million, up by 22.4% year-on-year, and China became the first country in the world with the number of effective invention patents exceeding 4 million. According to relevant sources, through the data of intellectual property rights in 2023, we can see that the innovation activities of enterprises remain active, the innovation in the digital economy is strong, and new consumption growth points such as "trendy products" of domestic products are accelerating, and China’s economic vitality continues to generate.

High-value invention patents account for more than 40%

On January 16th, Hu Wenhui, deputy director of China National Intellectual Property Administration, introduced at the press conference held by the State Council Office that it took 31 years for the effective number of invention patents in China (excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan) to reach the first 1 million, and it only took one and a half years to break through the fourth 1 million. Among the more than 4 million valid invention patents, high-value invention patents account for more than 40%. China has become a veritable intellectual property power, and continues to make important contributions to global innovation and development.

From the perspective of enterprises, by the end of 2023, there were 427,000 enterprises with effective invention patents in China, an increase of 72,000 over the previous year. Domestic enterprises have 2.909 million valid invention patents, accounting for 71.2%, exceeding 70% for the first time, and the status of innovation subject is further highlighted.

In terms of fields, according to the statistics of 35 technical fields classified by the World Intellectual Property Organization, by the end of 2023, the top three technical fields of effective invention patents in China were information technology management methods, computer technology and basic communication programs, which increased by 59.4%, 39.3% and 30.8% respectively year-on-year, far higher than the domestic average growth level. "This shows that China has maintained a high degree of innovation in the field of digital technology and continued to empower and increase efficiency for the high-quality development of the digital economy. Hu Wenhui said.

From the regional perspective, by the end of 2023, the effective number of invention patents in Yangtze River Delta, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area were 1.308 million, 703,000 and 672,000 respectively, accounting for 65.6% of the domestic total, up 21.1%, 21.0% and 23.2% respectively, and the leading role of innovation in key areas was remarkable.

Hu Wenhui said that China National Intellectual Property Administration will continue to improve the quality and efficiency of examination, vigorously promote the transformation and application of patents, accelerate the realization of patent value, better stimulate the innovation vitality of the whole society and help high-quality economic and social development.

The annual output value of geographical indication products exceeds 800 billion yuan.

According to the data of China National Intellectual Property Administration, in 2023, 13 geographical indication products were approved, and 201 geographical indications were registered as collective trademarks and certification trademarks. 5,842 business entities approved to use special geographical indications.

Hu Wenhui introduced that by the end of 2023, China had approved a total of 2,508 geographical indication products, and 7,277 geographical indications were registered as collective trademarks and certification trademarks, with a total of 26,000 business entities specializing in geographical indications and an annual output value of geographical indication products exceeding 800 billion yuan.

With the continuous development in China, China’s geographical indication products have accelerated their entry into the international market and are favored by more overseas consumers. Wen Guo, Director of the Intellectual Property Protection Department of China National Intellectual Property Administration, said that this year is the third year since the signing of the Agreement on the Protection and Cooperation of Geographical Indications between China and Europe. Since the entry into force of the agreement, many products have been selected into the list of mutual recognition and mutual protection of geographical indications between China and Europe, and the mutual recognition and mutual protection products have won the reputation and affirmation of European consumers for their unique quality characteristics. For example, after Liuyang Fireworks was listed as a product of mutual recognition and mutual insurance, the export volume climbed year after year, reaching 7.06 billion yuan in 2023, accounting for 19% of its total output value, setting a new high.

"The international popularity of China’s geographical indication products is getting higher and higher." Wen Guo said that the number of enterprises that approved the use of special geographical indications has quadrupled to 73 since the wine at the eastern foot of Helan Mountain was selected into the mutual recognition and mutual insurance list. The wines of more than 60 wineries in the producing areas have won more than 1,100 awards in various international wine competitions, and their products are exported to more than 40 countries and regions.

Cultivate new consumption growth points such as domestic products "trendy products"

Hu Wenhui said that the development of "fashionable goods" of domestic products is inseparable from the all-round assistance of intellectual property rights, especially the need to make good use of the trademark system to strengthen brand protection and realize brand value. China National Intellectual Property Administration has thoroughly implemented the trademark brand strategy, vigorously promoted the trademark brand construction, and helped to cultivate new consumption growth points such as "fashionable goods" of domestic products.

-Strengthen policy support. Taking the construction of "a thousand enterprises with thousands of standards" and "a hundred cities with hundreds of products" and trademark brand guidance stations as the starting point, we encourage local and enterprises to strengthen trademark brand construction, support the innovation and upgrading of traditional brands, and actively cultivate emerging brands. Recently, the first batch of 1,105 enterprise trademark brands and 285 regional trademark brands were approved to participate in the trademark brand value promotion action of "Thousands of Enterprises and Hundred Cities", and China National Intellectual Property Administration will give guidance and support in enhancing the trademark brand ability and brand value.

-Improve the service level. Promote the construction of more than 3,900 trademark brand guidance stations nationwide, with an average annual service of more than 400,000 enterprises. We will continue to promote trademark pledge financing to benefit enterprises. In 2023, the national trademark pledge financing amount reached 176.91 billion yuan, up 63.5% year-on-year, which helped enterprises effectively alleviate the financial difficulties in the process of brand development.

-Strengthen brand protection. We will continue to push forward the revision process of the Trademark Law, strengthen the protection of legitimate prior rights of trademark brands and well-known trademarks, conscientiously guide foreign-related intellectual property disputes when domestic products go out to sea, resolutely crack down on all kinds of behaviors such as being next to famous brands, hitchhiking and rubbing hot spots, and boost the confidence of brand development and the sense of gaining business entities.

Hu Wenhui said that China National Intellectual Property Administration will continue to promote the brand value promotion of "Thousands of Enterprises and Hundreds of Cities" to help form more influential national brands and internationally renowned brands, create more "fashionable products" of domestic products and expand the scale of brand consumption.
