"The more authentic and natural the food, the safer and healthier it will be", which is the idea of many people now. When people buy food in the supermarket, "no addition" and "zero addition" often become the selection criteria. However, recently, the State Administration of Market Supervision issued the Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Food Labeling (Draft for Comment) (hereinafter referred to as the "Measures") to solicit opinions from the public. The "Measures" clearly stipulate that "no addition" and "zero addition" cannot be used in food. Why is this?

　　"Food additives are the needs of seasoning and quality assurance, and modern food production and processing are inseparable from food additives, which is really ‘ Zero addition ’ There is almost no food, so-called ‘ Zero addition ’ It’s just a trick of business promotion. " Wang Hao, an associate professor at the School of Food Engineering and Biotechnology, Tianjin University of Science and Technology, said.

　　Therefore, once the regulations such as "zero addition" are officially passed, it will be beneficial to standardize food labeling and greatly limit the operation of some businesses to fool consumers with "zero addition"; It is conducive to strengthening the supervision and management of food labeling and protecting consumers’ right to know and choose; It is conducive to guiding consumers to correctly understand food additives and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of consumers and food producers and operators.

　　Modern food production and processing are inseparable from additives.

　　With the improvement of living standards, consumers’ standards for eating are getting higher and higher. Many people are flustered at the sight of a string of unfamiliar chemical terms in food instructions, and they are worried that the irregular use of additives in food will bring safety problems, even to the point of talking about "adding". Once food safety problems occur, additives often become "back-pot men".

　　"Food additives are one of the most active, developing and improving parts in the food industry. It is a synthetic or natural substance added to food to improve the quality of food such as color, fragrance and taste, and to meet the needs of anti-corrosion, preservation and processing technology. " Wang Hao said, "Food additives have greatly promoted the development of food industry. Only using food additives can prolong the storage period of food, ensure food safety, provide people with more delicious and nutritious food and meet people’s different needs. Food additives are the product of the development of modern food industry. Without food additives, there would be no modern food industry. Therefore, food additives are also known as the soul of the modern food industry. "

　　"After entering the food industrialization, it is quite difficult for prepackaged foods, which has been processed by enterprises, to find food without food additives." Wang Hao said that some people think that they can stay away from additives when cooking at home. In fact, there are many additives in various seasonings used in cooking. For example, soy sauce contains food additives such as caramel color, potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate, and anti-caking agents added in salt and antioxidants added in edible oil are all food additives. This is why edible oil has no "spicy taste" after being put for a long time, and salt is not easy to agglomerate in summer.

　　"Some people will compare the ingredient list when buying food, and think that foods with fewer kinds of food additives are healthier than foods with more additives." In this regard, Wang Hao emphasized that "as long as food additives are used legally and in moderation, the number of types added does not affect the quality and safety of food."

　　Writing "zero addition" does not necessarily mean that there are no additives.

　　"If illegal additives are not added, it’s like a salted duck egg package that says ‘ Sudan Red ’ is not added; Similarly, it should not appear in the product, let alone on the packaging, because it is the responsibility and obligation of the manufacturer that the product does not contain illegal additives. " Wang Hao analysis, and if "zero addition" refers to the absence of legal additives, this situation is even more interesting. The state originally stipulated that additives can be added, but the products are marked in bold and bold, which will cause misunderstanding to consumers and think that these additives are harmful.

　　"In addition, some business logos will not say that no specific substances have been added, but only that they have not been added in general, which makes people think that this is food without any additives." Wang Hao said, for example, some foods that don’t need preservatives themselves, because they don’t have an environment for corrupt microorganisms to "have children", such as honey (high sugar), instant noodle cakes (dry) and pickled foods (high salt). Although these foods may not contain preservatives as food additives, they will contain other food additives, which will mislead consumers.

　　Wang Hao pointed out that the real problem is that some food packages are secretive, and although they are marked with "zero addition" and "no addition", they are actually added. In other words, the so-called "zero-addition" and "no-addition" have become the propaganda tactics of merchants, which not only damages consumers’ right to know, but also disrupts the competition order in the food market. Therefore, it is forbidden for food production and operation enterprises to mark "no addition" and "zero addition" on food packaging, which not only helps to standardize and restrict the production and operation behavior of enterprises, but also fully protects consumers’ right to know.

　　"Zero addition" does not mean healthier and safer.

　　"In fact, even if it’s true ‘ Zero addition ’ It does not mean that it is safe, healthy and nutritious. " Wang Hao explained that, for example, food preservatives are a major category of food additives, which are used to prevent or delay food spoilage and prolong food preservation and storage period. There are some foods with high protein content, and preservatives must be added to ensure the quality and safety of the products, otherwise it will be more prone to spoilage. Therefore, adding preservatives in a suitable range is actually a guarantee for consumer food safety.

　　"Sometimes the right amount of food additives can reduce and eliminate the output of harmful substances in the food production process." Wang Hao, for example, said that when curing food, adding proper amount of ascorbic acid, which is commonly known as vitamin C, can effectively reduce the content of carcinogenic nitrite.

　　"For example, many people like to eat air-dried cured meat, fermented foods and bean products. In the production process, it is easy to produce botulinum that can release highly toxic toxins. A very small amount can paralyze nerves, which in turn causes respiratory failure and death." Wang Hao said that in the industrial production of this kind of food, professional technicians are responsible for controlling the usage and dosage of additives, and there are also standard production procedures to reduce the generation of harmful substances. In the production process and before entering the market, we should also carry out quality inspection on products according to national standards.

　　"Standardizing the use of food additives has the function of ensuring safety, ‘ Zero addition ’ There will be no more advantages in security. " Wang Hao said.

Special feature of 1905 film network When the opera meets the film, since its release, it has been evaluated with the high score of Douban 8.2 by virtue of the audience’s good reputation.

As the first 4K panoramic Cantonese opera film, it was shortlisted for the best opera film in the Golden Rooster Award for Chinese films, and also won the Golden Coconut Award for the best technology in Hainan Island International Film Festival. Through film technology, traditional Chinese opera is given a new look, and behind this, it is also inseparable from the credit of editing technology.

The editor of this film is a national first-class editor. His previous representative works include Youth Fight, Deep Sea Sword and Men’s Gang. Sun Yiqun’s mother is also an editor. She is Yang Xingyuan, the former president of China Film Editing Society, and her representative editing works are various.

Can editing technology be inherited? In this issue of Behind the Scene, Yang Xingyuan and Sun Yiqun, the editors, lead us into china national film museum to reveal the history of film film editing, and experience the technological changes of film editing together from the film age to the digital age.

Behind the scenes: Film editor Yang Xingyuan reveals the tools of "film film editing"

Film clip: "Manual sewing machine"

I have a particularly cordial feeling. I can feel the temperature of all these devices. Entering china national film museum, Yang Xingyuan knows a lot about the film editing machines in the museum.

Facing a splicing machine full of historical colors, Yang Xingyuan introduced that Premier Zhou Enlai cared about film splicing and specially entrusted Tianjin No.2 Optical Instrument Factory to develop this splicing machine for them, also known as the four-way sound painting machine.

From the end of the 1960s to the end of the 1990s, this was the only tool for their editors, and the frequency was controlled in the frequency of 24 squares by hand. "My editing of Man to Middle Age, Zhou Enlai and Armageddon was cut out by such a machine."

The process of film editing is particularly complicated. After the film is finished, it should be washed in the studio, and then printed into samples with the negative, and the editor and the director and other producers will jointly review it.

When editing, the sound and picture of the sample should be synchronized with the negative, so the first step of editing is not to cut, but to arrange, and each of the specific scenes, shots and sound tapes in all the shooting materials should be completely recorded first, otherwise the material synchronized with the negative can not be found later.

"So it’s not easy to start editing. All this work has to be done before you can enter the creative stage." Yang Xingyuan said that it is more difficult at the stage of revision. For example, if there are ten films and one place is revised, these ten films will have to be hand-cranked from beginning to end on the film receiver. "After shaking it down, it is a lot of films, and then it is lifted one by one. At that time, the state positioned the editor as a light manual worker. "

Recalling the editing work of "Zhou Enlai", at that time, the version of mixed editing of picture and sound was completed, but the director had to modify the picture temporarily. "I was so angry that I wouldn’t change it for you, but he personally took a dozen films upstairs and asked me to change it." In order to make the film better, Yang Xingyuan said that even if the editing process was not easy at that time, it still had to be modified.

In the past, when editing technology was underdeveloped, a small machine supported the creation of many excellent classic films. Sun Yiqun recalled, "At that time, my mother stayed up late at night, so I slept next to her with a small quilt. I always wanted to shake this film, and my mother was particularly afraid that I would destroy it. She said that if you broke it, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Nowadays, computer technology is very simple to operate the effects of transition editing, such as fade-in, fade-out, cut-in and cut-out, overlapping, etc., but it is very troublesome in the film age. It is necessary for the editor to make specific marks on the film with a special pen, and then let the special effects producers use optical skills to make them on the film.

The complicated and exquisite technology of film film editors bears the heavy history of China films.

"For example, there are seven kinds of scenes to record a dialogue and an action now. I think the workload is very heavy. There are more than 200 shots as soon as I open the folder, but it is much more complicated than us to hear these things that the predecessors are editing. My mother sewed by hand at that time, and now it is equivalent to using an electric sewing machine. "

Hearing his mother’s introduction to film editing technology, Sun Yiqun felt a lot. "Now we have mastered new technologies and brought us convenience, while the older generation got through it like that and admired it."

Digital editing: White Snake’s secret recipe

The era of film editing has ended, and digital computer technology has been fully popularized. Nowadays, Sun Yiqun’s editing work is no longer just a simple operation technology, but also needs to integrate his own ideas at the creative level.

Talking about her latest film White Snake, Sun Yiqun said that in editing skills, she paid special attention to the balance between drama and film.

"There are many stylized things in traditional Chinese opera. Actors often communicate with the audience and the camera, which breaks the spatial illusion that the film has carefully established." Therefore, she will especially avoid editing the lens that highlights the "fourth wall" and choose more pictures of actors communicating with each other.

When the traditional Chinese opera performance is put on the movie screen, it is easy to have a magnifying effect. In addition, it is 4K quality, and any tiny expression of the actor can be clearly captured. When editing, Sun Yiqun will also avoid the scenes that will appear exaggerated on the big screen.

"The hand, eye, body and steps of an opera actor, his figure is a very important aspect of expression. If I edit excessively or even choose inappropriate scenery, it will destroy the good rhythm of the opera, so I still have to pick up its rhythm and grasp it well." How to find a moderate point is a difficult part of this editing.

Sun Yiqun is also worried that if the aria is too long, it will affect the audience’s desire to watch. Among them, there is a scene of "Broken Bridge and Residual Snow", in which lady white snake complains to Xu Xian after suffering, and the recorded aria is very long. She took the initiative to discuss the reduction with the director. "Otherwise, it would ruin lady white snake’s image and become a dissatisfied housewife." Finally, after coordination and careful cutting, it was cut for more than 30 minutes.

White Snake reinterprets classic stories and boldly tries new editing techniques of combining drama with film. Yang Xingyuan feels that today’s editors have a higher pursuit than the older generation. "They need to have the ability to master the lens and handle the structure, not the things we have learned. Those things have passed. They can put more energy into creation. "

Two generations of editing methods

Yang Xingyuan was originally an actor, but later transferred to Changying and changed to editing. "Having been an actor for more than ten or twenty years, I can still understand the performance and rhythm, and this accumulation will be useful. I just thought I could learn to edit and play my little role."

Thanks to her experience as an actor, Yang Xingyuan switched to editing, and she can better handle the rhythm of performances and shots.

When cutting "Man to Middle Age", because Lu Wenting and Yang Xingyuan are both of the same generation, Yang Xingyuan said that she edited the character completely according to the character and her own feelings. "Lu Wenting went to see the child, and the editor must understand how she looked at it in order to impress the audience. So I chose her to post it in the nearest place to watch the child sleeping, so that I can understand the psychological feelings of this character. "

With more than 40 years of experience in behind-the-scenes editing, Yang Xingyuan concluded that editors should think about editing from three angles.

The first is the director. "I must know what he wants to do, what he wants to show and what he wants to give to the audience." Then there is the character, "to understand the character’s mentality and his various things."

Then there is the audience. "You must know what the audience wants to see and where his interest lies. I can’t say that I am an old lady now. My rhythm is slow, so I don’t appreciate the audience’s appreciation ability. I also deal with the film according to my rhythm and speed, and the audience will definitely stop watching it. "

Daughter Sun Yiqun did a lot of work that had nothing to do with art. Later, her mother thought she should learn a skill, so she taught her to edit and took her into the business. The two later jointly edited the TV series Behind the Vanity.

"They always ask why the play they cut is not good-looking. I said that because you cut the process, it is not a play." Sun Yiqun believes that a good editing is to "pick up" the scene and find the eye of the scene, while a bad editing is to exert an average force. "If the scene and the scene are not more energetic, it will not work."

In her view, editing and scriptwriting have a lot in common, they all want to tell stories, and they all want to think about how to make this story vivid, interesting and arresting.

From Yang Xingyuan to Sun Yiqun, from film editing to digital editing, the editors of mother and daughter have great enthusiasm for this art, which has been passed down from generation to generation not only for the iterative upgrade of film editing skills, but also for the consistent dedication, concentration, lean and innovative craftsmanship as editors.

　　Yesterday, Jiangsu Education Examinations Institute held an open day for marking the college entrance examination. Yangzi Evening News reporter and 12 candidates and parents’ representatives from Nanjing came to the marking site of the college entrance examination, visited the answer sheet storage group, scanning group and Chinese subject marking group successively, and got in touch with the marking work of the college entrance examination at zero distance, feeling the fair, just, rigorous and orderly working atmosphere of the marking of the college entrance examination.

　　site

　　The electronic image of each candidate’s answer sheet is kept for 4 years.

　　At the examination paper scanning point of the Provincial Education Examinations Institute, the staff are busy unpacking and scanning the examination paper, storing the information in the warehouse, and scanning it through a high-speed special scanner, cutting the contents of the examination paper into pictures, encrypting the candidates’ names, admission ticket numbers and other information, and sending them directly to each marking point through special optical fiber.

　　Fu Yaozhang, director of the Network Information Center of the Provincial Education Examinations Institute, said, "The scanning number of all answer sheets in all subjects must be consistent with the data of candidates participating in the arrangement, and the electronic image of each candidate’s answer sheet should be kept for 4 years."

　　As in previous years, this year, all subjects of the college entrance examination in our province will continue to carry out computer-aided online marking, and the Provincial Education Examinations Institute will undertake the scanning of answer sheets and the marking of multiple-choice questions. For non-multiple-choice questions, the marking of Chinese, mathematics and foreign languages will be handled by Nanjing Normal University, and the marking of six selected subjects and small languages will be handled by Nanjing University.

　　Wu Renlin, vice president of the Provincial Education Examinations Institute, said that there were more than 2,200 marking teachers this year, all of whom were selected from the database of marking teachers in the province. Among them, the marking teachers who mark the test questions with large scores and strong subjectivity, such as composition questions, discussion questions, calculation and solution questions, experiments, etc., all have more than 3 years of teaching and research experience and some marking experience.

　　"Four-evaluation system" makes marking more fair

　　The marking method is also particular: the "four-evaluation system" is implemented in the non-multiple-choice part of all subjects. "After the test paper is scanned and entered into the computer, it will be cut into several blocks. After cutting, the computer will automatically process all the blocks with secret numbers. All the secret numbers correspond to the candidates one by one, but the marking teacher can’t see any identity information of the candidates, and no one can change the answer sheets after secret number processing, which can ensure the fairness and justice of marking work." Wu Renlin said that each marking group marked the cut blocks separately, and each block was randomly distributed to two different marking teachers for independent marking. If the scores scored by the two people are within the scoring threshold set by the subject marking expert group, the average of the scores scored by the two people is taken; If it exceeds the scoring threshold, it will be submitted to the third marking teacher for three evaluations; If it still exceeds the scoring threshold, it will be submitted to the fourth marking teacher for four evaluations. The difficult problems encountered in the marking process are collectively discussed and solved by the marking expert group.

　　Marking progress

　　Chinese: the score of the test questions is accurate to 1 point.

　　Professor Cao, a member of the Chinese marking group of the college entrance examination, introduced that this year’s marking was more orderly, rigorous, scientific and stable. On the second day after the end of the college entrance examination, marking experts entered the marking site to prepare for marking. At present, the scores of most topics are accurate to 1 point, ensuring that the hard work of each candidate is properly reflected.

　　Professor Cao said that the marking of Chinese in the college entrance examination has maintained a steady and progressive trend. "This year, the Chinese in the college entrance examination is generally stable. From the results of the trial evaluation, it is easier for candidates to get started, and their thoughts and feelings can be expressed, and the degree of discrimination in the test papers is ideal. For the composition evaluation that candidates and parents care about, we will focus on correcting the phenomenon of high scores and low scores in the process of marking and correcting ‘ False and wrong cases ’ Strictly check the excellent composition and carefully identify the fake phenomenon of low scores and high scores. In addition, the team leader and the staff of the expert group will repeatedly check without any dead ends, and organize the verification team to conduct spot checks on the composition marking. "

　　Mathematics: More than 8 solutions have been prepared for each problem such as function.

　　The math marking team for college entrance examination consists of math teachers from NTU and NTU and more than 80 middle school teachers. Professor Yan, a member of the math marking group and professor of Nanjing Normal University, introduced that the math marking group organized a subject expert group and each topic leader to investigate the answers of the province’s math test papers, and learned about the possible answers of candidates through full investigation. "The expert group has been carefully formulating the scoring rules. For example, function problems and many big problems have provided more than eight solutions, so it is necessary to formulate scientific evaluation criteria. Decompose each solution into knowledge points, and ensure that homogeneous knowledge points give the same scores and fair standards. Once a new solution is found, the marking teacher must report to the subject expert group in time, and then the experts will discuss and study the scoring rules of this solution, and they are not allowed to evaluate it privately. "

　　Professor Yan revealed that the mathematics marking of the college entrance examination should be completed before the 20th.

　　English: enrich the grading rules and take care of a variety of reasonable composition viewpoints and angles.

　　Professor Shao, a member of the English marking group, introduced that the expert group carefully analyzed the characteristics and reference answers of "task-based reading" and "written expression" and refined the evaluation criteria; The writing points and sub-points of the composition part are subdivided. At the same time, through a large number of sample papers covering various regions and examination rooms, starting from the actual situation of candidates’ answers, the scoring rules are enriched and a variety of reasonable composition viewpoints and angles are taken care of.

　　English marking implements a three-level quality monitoring system of subject expert group, marking team leader and team members. Each paper has been reviewed by team members for multiple rounds back to back, arbitrated or spot-checked by team leader, and monitored and spot-checked by experts. At the same time, the online marking system and monitoring system have a clear division of labor. According to the characteristics of English subjects, the software is designed scientifically and matched reasonably, and equipped with real-time marking, quality statistics, bad error monitoring and early warning systems to avoid misjudgment as much as possible.

Country Garden said that the company is actively taking self-help measures, trying its best to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and concentrate resources to ensure delivery.

Reduce expenses: the annual salary of the four directors is reduced to 120,000 yuan, and the administrative expenses are reduced by 60%.

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.

　　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.

Li Keqiang emphasized during his inspection in Hebei.
Carry the responsibility of ensuring food and energy security
Provide solid support for stabilizing the economic market and stabilizing prices

Xinhua News Agency, Shijiazhuang, June 21st-On June 21st, The Politburo Standing Committee (PSC) and Li Keqiang, Premier of the State Council of the People’s Republic of China, accompanied by Ni Yuefeng, secretary of Hebei Provincial Party Committee, and Wang Zhengpu, governor of Hebei Province, visited Gaobeidian and Zhuozhou. He stressed that under the guidance of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era, we should implement the deployment of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, comprehensively implement the new development concept, effectively coordinate the prevention and control of epidemic situation and economic and social development, implement various policies to stabilize the economy, pay attention to solving problems with reform methods, seize the agricultural season to do a good job in harvesting summer sowing in summer, ensure the peak of energy supply, and provide solid support for stabilizing prices, protecting people’s livelihood and stabilizing the economic market.

On June 21st, The Politburo Standing Committee (PSC) and Li Keqiang, Premier of the State Council of the People’s Republic of China visited Gaobeidian and Zhuozhou in Hebei. This is Li Keqiang talking with grain farmers in the wheat field of Fangguan Town, Gaobeidian. Xinhua News Agency reporter Liu Weibing photo

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.
