Jews in China.

The Jewish nation originated in Canaan (present-day Palestine). In the first century A.D., due to the uprising against the Roman Empire, it was driven out of its hometown and scattered in all directions. From then on, until the founding of Israel in 1948, they drifted for almost two thousand years.

▲ In 70 AD, the resistance to Roman rule failed, and the Jews were driven out of their homes and scattered in all directions.

The vast majority of Jews are scattered in Eastern Europe, the Middle East and the Mediterranean, and some Jews continue to migrate to China in the farther east. Although the Silk Road is long, it has already spread China’s influence to every corner of the world. According to modern archaeological discoveries, as early as the Zhou Dynasty, Jews had arrived in China to engage in trade.

At the beginning of the 11th century, Kaifeng, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, formed the first Jewish community, and gradually achieved the same social status as the Han people. From modern times to World War II, the number of Jews in China reached tens of thousands, reaching a historical peak.

After World War II, the vast majority of Jews left China, so that a brand-new minority was not formed, and only a few Jewish descendants were integrated into the Chinese nation. What happened in the meantime?

I the rise and fall of the Jewish community in Kaifeng

According to archaeological experts, as early as the Zhou Dynasty and the Qin and Han Dynasties, there were Jews doing business in the Central Plains. It has been confirmed by archaeological excavations that a large number of Jews arrived in China in the Tang Dynasty.

At the beginning of the 20th century, British and French explorers discovered Hebrew letters and prayers in Xinjiang, and the writing time was determined around 718 AD, that is, the early reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. Experts believe that these Jews came to China to do business through the overland Silk Road.

▲ The British explorer Stein discovered the earliest Hebrew letter, and he is also one of the biggest cultural relics thieves in China.

The northern song dynasty failed to regain control of the western regions, and the silk road on land was no longer safe and prosperous, and the silk road on the sea rose accordingly. In October 998, a group of Jews arrived in China by Arab merchant ships, then passed through Quanzhou and Yangzhou, and arrived in Kaifeng, the capital at that time.

Modern research shows that these Jews should belong to the Jewish community in the Persian region. Their preserved Jewish scriptures are consistent with Persian Jews, and their DNA is closer to Middle Eastern Jews. This view occupies a dominant position in the current academic circles.

The Song Dynasty was a relatively open and tolerant dynasty. Arabs, Persians, Europeans and other foreigners were not discriminated against, and their business was unimpeded. They could also become officials in the DPRK, and Jews were no exception.

▲ Jews from the Middle East arrived in Kaifeng through the Maritime Silk Road.

Because of good management, Jews began to buy real estate, formed their own community in a street in Kaifeng and Heshun District, and their lives were quite rich. Kaifeng people call Jews "people who give happiness", which is the transliteration of "Israel" by Song people.

Kaifeng people like exotic goods brought by Jews, but they are also curious about their religious rituals and customs, but they are not offended at all, which makes Jews feel safe and satisfied. In order to gain the official recognition of the Song Dynasty, Jews learned from other foreigners and made an audience with Song Zhenzong through the Ministry of Rites, hoping to live in Kaifeng forever.

In 1008, Song Zhenzong issued a letter, saying, "It’s midsummer for me, and I will abide by the ancestral style and leave the capital of song dynasty", allowing them to take the imperial examination and keep their own customs. In 1127, Song Huizong ordered that one hundred and twenty pieces of silver be appropriated to help them build a synagogue.

▲ In the Qingming Riverside Map, Kaifeng was the largest city in the world at that time, accommodating all foreign nationalities.

Unfortunately, before this hall was built, Jurchen from the north had already arrived in Enemy at the Gates, breached Kaifeng, and captured Emperor Huiqin, and the Northern Song Dynasty ended, which was known as the "Jingkang Change".

The Jewish community in Kaifeng has just emerged, with a population of just over 500, and it has to face a brand-new "Jin" dynasty. Jews chose to stay in Kaifeng and continue to run their own business. In fact, due to the lack of talents in financial management in the "Jin" and "Yuan" Hu dynasties, the status of Jews has been improved.

Jin Dynasty Emperor Wan Yanliang intended to follow the example of the Northern Song Dynasty in issuing paper money "Jiaozi", but all the coin-making officials in the Song Dynasty fled south, and Wan Yanliang was unavailable. Therefore, some ministers proposed that Jews should finish this work.

▲ Jin Dynasty’s "Jiaozi" and its impression. The Jews designed the first edition of "Jiaozi" for the Jin Dynasty in the style of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Jews learned from the mature experience of paper money in the Northern Song Dynasty, coupled with their own business talent, and designed the Jin version of "Jiaozi" in just a few days. In addition, they also suggested that the Jin Dynasty set up a special paper money management institution "Pedestrian", which can be regarded as the embryonic form of the bank and has some functions of the central bank.

In 1163, in order to reward the contribution of the Jews, the Jin Dynasty allocated funds to build the first synagogue in the Hutong of Kaifeng. After the destruction of gold in the Yuan Dynasty, Jews continued to serve the Yuan Dynasty, which was also recognized by the Yuan Dynasty. In 1279, the hall was rebuilt, with an area of more than 10,000 square meters.

The real peak of the Jewish community in Kaifeng was in the Ming Dynasty, which grew to more than 500 households with more than 5,000 people. They not only gave themselves the Chinese surname, but also became officials through the imperial examination, and began to accept Confucianism, naturalized Chinese civilization, and their social status was completely equal to that of Han people.

▲ At the end of the 20th century, overseas Jews visited the Jewish old site in Kaifeng.

In other parts of the world, Jews insist on using their own Hebrew language and writing, but this situation has changed in China. During the hundreds of years from Song Dynasty to Ming Dynasty, Kaifeng Jews gradually learned Chinese in their long-term common life with Chinese. What’s more, Chinese never discriminates against them, which makes them have no reason to refuse to learn Chinese.

The problem of intermarriage with Chinese also experienced the process from prohibition to relaxation. After the Song Dynasty, there were wars in China, and there were few foreign Jews. In order to maintain the reproduction and survival of the Jewish community, they began to intermarry with Chinese. According to statistics in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Kaifeng Jews married at least 40 non-Jewish women.

In language, marriage, culture, employment and so on, Kaifeng Jews are more and more like Chinese. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, Zhao Jincheng, the leader of Kaifeng Jews, did not know Hebrew. They still kept their ancestors’ scriptures and genealogy, but no one gathered for church again and the synagogue was in ruins.

▲ Jewish memorial hall and Jewish genealogy in Kaifeng city.

In 1854, the Yellow River flooded, the Kaifeng synagogue was razed to the ground, religious ceremonies stopped completely, the whole Jewish community disintegrated completely, and some remaining cultural relics were snapped up by foreign missionaries. The former site of the synagogue was later sold and turned into the present Kaifeng Chinese Medicine Hospital.

At this point, the Jewish community in Kaifeng was founded in 998 AD, dissipated in the early 20th century, went through a whole thousand years, and finally completely integrated into the Chinese nation. At present, there are about 200 descendants of Jews in Kaifeng. Some people are still trying to get back the memories of their ancestors, but they all think they are Chinese, just to find their roots.

▲ The last relic of Kaifeng Jewish synagogue is an ancient well in Kaifeng Chinese Medicine Hospital.

Second, Jewish businessmen doing business in China in modern times

After being forced to leave Canaan, Jews scattered in all directions. By the middle ages, it had been divided into three main groups: Eastern Jews distributed in the Arab region; Sefadi Jews are distributed in the Mediterranean region; Ashkenaz Jews are distributed in continental Europe. Since modern times, the global colonization activities of Europeans have made the activity areas of three parts of Jews overlap.

Many Sefadi Jews have joined Britain, France and other nationalities. They followed the footsteps of European colonists and established business networks around the world. As soon as China was opened to the world by the Opium War, Sefadi Jews beat us to it and made investments and business in China. Sassoon was the representative among them.

▲ Sassoon Building, located at the Nanjing intersection of the Bund, is now part of the Peace Hotel.

David sassoon, the founder of Sassoon Foreign Firm, is a British Jew and one of the British businessmen who export opium to China the most. After 1840, Sassoon opened foreign firms in Hong Kong, Guangzhou and Shanghai, especially in Shanghai, which was a great success, dealing in opium, cotton yarn, arms and so on, with branches all over the country.

The flourishing development of the Sefadi Jewish business group in Shanghai led to the establishment of the Jewish community in Shanghai, including Jewish cemeteries, synagogues and schools. In 1910, the Shanghai Jewish Association was formally established, and then a larger synagogue was built and Jewish newspapers were founded, which played a role in rallying Shanghai Jews.

▲ The former site of Shanghai Jewish General Association, founded in 1911, is located at No.722 Nanjing West Road.

The Shanghai Jewish community, dominated by Sefadi Jews, is relatively small in number, but has strong economic strength. Their main purpose is charity relief, and they also set up the Shanghai Jewish Saint Society, which specializes in this work. The agency opened a hospital in 1934 to help Jews living in Shanghai.

Almost at the same time that Sefadi Jews established the Shanghai community, another group of Jews also established their own community in China. They are Jews from Russia and belong to Ashkenaz Jews on the European continent. Unlike the wealthy Sefadi Jews, these Russian Jews came to China to take refuge.

Third, Russian Jews who took refuge in China in modern times

At the end of 19th century, Ashkenaz Jews were mainly distributed in Germany, Poland, Russia and other countries, among which the living environment of Russian Jews was worse. The czar government not only forced them to convert to the Orthodox Church, but also imposed heavy taxes and military service. The constant wave of anti-Semitism in Russia also frightened Jews.

Just in order to develop the Far East and encourage Europeans to emigrate, the czar government adopted a more relaxed ethnic policy in the Far East. As a result, Jews poured into the Far East, and the Soviet Union even established a Jewish autonomous prefecture on the Sino-Russian border. Some Jews also entered Harbin, a city in China occupied by Russia, and the Shanghai Concession.

▲ Harbin Jewish Church, which has been changed to Jewish History and Culture Museum.

Before the October Revolution in Russia, more than 6,000 Jews lived in Harbin and operated hundreds of industrial and commercial enterprises. After the "October Revolution", a large number of wealthy old Russian aristocrats fled Russia for fear of the red regime, and many of them came to Harbin and Shanghai.

The number of Russian Jews in Harbin has soared to more than 20,000, and the number of Russian Jews in Shanghai has also exceeded 4,000. There are also some Russian Jews who moved from Harbin to Tianjin Concession, reaching 3500 at most.

▲ Tianjin synagogue, located at the intersection of Nanjing Road and Zhengzhou Road in Heping District.

Russian Jews in Shanghai did not completely join the Sefadi Jewish community from the beginning, and kept their independence. After their number was greatly increased, they set up their own independent organization in 1932.

Compared with the charity function of Sefadi Jewish community, Russian Jews pay more attention to the propaganda and activities of Zionism. Zionism is the idea of returning to Palestine and establishing a Jewish homeland. Russian Jews all over China have established Zionist organizations to unite Jews.

Russian Jews are the majority of modern Jews who have lived in China for a long time. They came to China because of persecution and were full of enthusiasm for Zionism.

Fourth, Jewish refugees who took refuge in China during World War II

In 1933, the German Nazis came to power, showing an obvious anti-Semitic tendency. Some German Jews began to leave their motherland and went to relatives and friends all over the world. By the summer of 1937, about 1,500 Jews had arrived in Shanghai by normal sea.

▲ Nazi Germany set off a climax of anti-Semitism, and Jews fled Germany and German-controlled areas.

In August 1937, Germany set off a large-scale wave of anti-Semitism, and the number of Jews coming to China increased sharply. In two years, at least 20,000 Jews arrived in Shanghai. When the world closed its doors to Jews, Shanghai opened its doors to these Jewish refugees for two reasons:

The first is that Shanghai was in a delicate period at that time. After the Battle of Songhu in 1937, most of Shanghai was occupied by the Japanese, and the China government lost its jurisdiction over Shanghai. As a result, Shanghai has become a "free port" and can enter without any proof or guarantee.

▲ Jews fled Nazi Germany.

The second reason is the act of He Fengshan, Consul General of China in Austria. Seeing that the Nazi persecution of Jews is getting worse, He Fengshan, Britain and the United States and other countries refused to accept more Jewish refugees, issued Chinese visas to a large number of Austrian Jews to help them leave this country that was about to be annexed by the Nazis.

▲ China diplomat He Fengshan, who saved a large number of Jews from escaping from the tiger’s mouth, and a sculpture commemorating him.

Due to the large number of Jewish refugees and poor economic conditions, most of them can only live in Hongkou District in the north of the public concession. Under the pressure of the Nazis, the Japanese occupation authorities set up an isolation zone in 1943, limiting Jewish refugees to live only in Hongkou and Yangshupu areas.

Despite the hard years of Japanese occupation, Shanghai residents still tried their best to help Jewish refugees. They vacated their houses for Jewish refugees to live in and treat Jewish refugees injured in the war.

▲ Memorial Hall for Jewish Refugees in Hongkou District, Shanghai, the main settlement of Jewish refugees in that year.

At first, Jewish refugees joined the early Russian Jewish community. With the increase in the number of refugees and the complexity of nationality, refugees have set up their own associations and become the main organizations to contact and help Jewish refugees.

Generally speaking, although the Jewish refugees who took refuge in Shanghai are hard, their life safety is still guaranteed. Many people do business in Shanghai and their lives are not so bad. So they spent the whole World War II.

V. The disappearance of Jewish communities in China.

On May 14th, 1948, the State of Israel was proclaimed, and the Jews finally had their own homeland. Three Jewish communities in modern China also welcomed their own homes.

▲ On May 14, 1948, Israel announced the founding of the country in the birthplace of Palestine (Canaan).

Sefadi Jewish businessmen, mainly British and American, became enemies of the Japanese authorities after the outbreak of the Pacific War. They were put into concentration camps and all their property was confiscated. After World War II, as the privileges of Shanghai Concession and foreign powers in China were taken back by China, Sefadi Jews lost their original advantages and gradually moved their property and business to Hong Kong, and their organization and influence basically disappeared.

After the Japanese occupation of the three northeastern provinces, the Russian Jewish community in Harbin began to flee or move southward in large numbers, leaving only 1,100 people in 1937. When the Soviet Red Army liberated the Northeast, the Jewish community was cancelled and all the Jews were scattered.

The Russian Jewish community in Shanghai began to disintegrate during the War of Liberation. Before the liberation of Shanghai, their number was less than 1000. In 1956, the last synagogue in Shanghai ceased to be used, which marked the complete demise of the Jewish community.

▲ Schematic diagram of the comparison between the State of Israel stipulated by the United Nations and Israel in the period of David in the 10th century BC.

The Jewish refugee community that took refuge in Shanghai in World War II began to disintegrate after the war. Refugees are returning home one after another, and many people have responded to the Zionist call and gathered in Palestine to prepare for the establishment of an Israeli state.

▲ The population growth trend of Israel since 1948.

At this point, the Jews in Chinese mainland basically dissipated, but the love between Jews and China did not end. Many Jews who have lived in China call themselves "Chinese Jews". Former Israeli Prime Minister Olmert is the second generation of "Chinese Jews", and his parents were born in Harbin.

▲ The establishment of the State of Israel has finally realized the Jewish dream of the motherland that lasted for two thousand years.

To this day, in Israel, the United States and other places, there are still active international friendship organizations commemorating the years of China and Shanghai. Many Jews who lived in China in those days came to China to seek their roots with their children, so that they could remember this precious time.

In the first year, the General Secretary led high-quality development in this way.

  "Firmly grasp the primary task of high-quality development." This year’s National People’s Congress, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed when attending the deliberation of the Jiangsu delegation.

  After the National People’s Congress and the National People’s Congress, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made many arrangements and demands around Chinese modernization and high-quality development.

  Walking the land of Lingnan, traveling thousands of miles in four days, points out the direction for Guangdong to "walk in the forefront in promoting Chinese modernization".

  Arriving in xiong’an new area, I entrusted "to truly turn the high-standard urban planning blueprint into a high-quality realistic picture of urban development".

  I went to Xi ‘an, the ancient capital, to listen to the work report of the Shaanxi Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government, demanding "efforts to achieve new breakthroughs in realizing self-reliance in science and technology, building a modern industrial system, promoting coordinated development of urban and rural areas, expanding high-level opening up, and strengthening ecological environment protection".

  Traveling in the Hetao Plain, investigating in the two places, holding two meetings, and emphasizing the construction of an important ecological security barrier in northern China are the "big country" that Inner Mongolia must bear in mind.

  Looking at the land of plenty, I profoundly pointed out that "the key to Chinese modernization lies in scientific and technological modernization", and hoped that Jiangsu would take the lead in making new breakthroughs in scientific and technological innovation, build an important industrial scientific and technological innovation highland in the country, and make high-quality development rely more on innovation-driven connotative growth.

  To the land of abundance, we emphasize "deepening the reform of development mode, development power, development field and development quality, and creating a new situation of high-quality development in China".

  … … … …

  Development is the top priority of the party in governing and rejuvenating the country. Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Party put forward: "High-quality development is the primary task of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way."

  This year is the first year to fully implement the spirit of the 20th Party Congress, and it is also the 45th anniversary of reform and opening up and the 10th anniversary of the Third Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee. Doing a good job in this year’s economic and social development and promoting the overall improvement of economic operation are very important for building a socialist modern country in an all-round way.

  The beginning is related to the overall situation, and the beginning determines the future.

  On July 17th, the semi-annual economic report of China was published. Looking at the "shape" and "potential" in the report card: the GDP in the first half of the year increased by 5.5% year-on-year, which was significantly faster than the economic growth rate of 3% last year; Since the beginning of this year, the national economy has continued to recover, the overall recovery has improved, high-quality development has been solidly promoted, industrial upgrading has accumulated, food and energy security has been effectively guaranteed, and the overall social situation has remained stable, laying a good foundation for achieving the annual economic and social development goals.

  On July 24th, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over the the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee meeting, which analyzed and studied the current economic situation and made arrangements for economic work in the second half of the year.

  In the first year of endeavor, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, all localities and departments adhered to the guidance of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, adhered to the general tone of striving for progress while maintaining stability, fully, accurately and comprehensively implemented the new development concept, accelerated the construction of a new development pattern, comprehensively deepened reform and opening up, intensified macro-policy control, focused on expanding domestic demand, boosting confidence, preventing risks, and continuously promoted the continuous improvement of economic operation, endogenous power and social expectations.

  "We must implement the new development concept completely, accurately and comprehensively"

  The electric welding robot is radiant with arc light, and the mechanical working arm can expand and contract freely. On July 3, China’s 20 millionth new energy vehicle drove off the Guangzhou Guangzhou Guangzhou Automobile Ai ‘an production line.

  From the first car to the 10 millionth car, 27 years; From the 10 millionth vehicle to the breakthrough of 20 million vehicles, 17 months. The leaping figures indicate the speed and strength of "China Zhizao".

  "Take the road of self-reliance and realize self-reliance and self-reliance in science and technology." In April, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came to Guangzhou Automobile Aian New Energy Automobile Co., Ltd. and walked into the enterprise exhibition hall, assembly workshop and battery production workshop to learn about the progress of enterprises in breaking through key core technologies and promoting high-end, intelligent and green manufacturing.

  Developing new energy vehicles is the only way for China to move from a big automobile country to a strong automobile country. As early as 2014, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made a judgment during an inspection.

  "Three Electricity" technology continues to innovate, low-carbon environmental protection and green travel, and exports climb to the world … … Today, China has become the largest producer, consumer and exporter of new energy vehicles in the world. With the new development concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing, the new energy automobile industry has become a vivid window to observe the high-quality development of China.

  "High-quality development is a development that can well meet the people’s growing needs for a better life, a development that embodies the new development concept, a development in which innovation becomes the first driving force, coordination becomes an endogenous feature, green becomes a universal form, openness becomes the only way, and sharing becomes the fundamental purpose."

  This is a scientific judgment of time and potential. From "have" to "good", the development environment and conditions are changing, and the development concept is also advancing with the times and changing with the situation. "The five development concepts of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing are formed on the basis of deeply summarizing the development experiences and lessons at home and abroad, and also on the basis of deeply analyzing the development trend at home and abroad." "We must implement the new development concept completely, accurately and comprehensively."

  The new development concept is the strategic guidance and important follow-up to promote high-quality development in the new era. On the new journey of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, the concept is clearer and the path is clearer.

  At the two sessions of the National People’s Congress this year, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed during the deliberation of the Jiangsu delegation that "high-quality development is the primary task of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way. We must implement the new development concept completely, accurately and comprehensively, and always grasp, measure and promote development with the internal unity of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing "; When visiting the members of the Democratic National Construction Association of Industry and Commerce who attended the CPPCC meeting, he stressed that "it is necessary to guide private enterprises and private entrepreneurs to correctly understand the principles and policies of the CPC Central Committee, enhance their confidence, travel lightly and boldly, and realize the healthy and high-quality development of the private economy."

  Under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, all localities and departments have thoroughly studied and implemented Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era, fully grasped, accurately understood and fully implemented the new development concept, and promoted quality change, efficiency change and power change.

  Advocate innovation and stimulate the change of motivation.

  In the Purple Mountain Laboratory in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, the 6G pulse is exciting and the future scene is desirable.

  On July 6th, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came to Zijinshan Laboratory and walked into the exhibition hall and the 6G comprehensive laboratory to learn more about tackling key scientific and technological tasks, stressing that "with the rapid development of information technology, subversive technologies may appear at any time, we should take a realistic and solid innovation path and make contributions to achieving high-level scientific and technological self-reliance".

  Innovating "gene" and deeply planting it in Zijinshan laboratory. Completed the world’s first 6G photon terahertz 100Gbps real-time wireless transmission communication experiment, and released the world’s first large-scale network operating system. In recent years, a number of breakthrough achievements have emerged. Live up to expectations and continue to tackle key problems, and the research team will move towards the maturity and practicality of key technologies.

  The weak innovation ability is the Achilles heel of development. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that "whoever takes the lead in innovation will have the initiative to lead development" and "grasping innovation means grasping development, and seeking innovation means seeking the future".

  Deepen the reform of the scientific and technological system, strengthen the dominant position of enterprises in scientific and technological innovation, and promote the development of strategic emerging industries. In the first half of the year, the output of aerospace aluminum materials, industrial control computers and systems increased by 23.3% and 34.1% respectively, and the output of new energy products such as new energy vehicles, solar cells and charging piles increased by 35%, 54.5% and 53.1% respectively. The "first driving force" of innovation is even stronger.

  Pay attention to coordination and enhance endogenous motivation.

  In May, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over a symposium to further promote the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, stressing that "it is necessary to firmly grasp the function of resolving Beijing’s non-capital ‘ Bull’s nose ’ " "We should strengthen collaborative innovation and industrial cooperation" and "further promote intra-regional cooperation". In three forums in ten years, the general secretary directed the pulse for the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei.

  Xiong’ an is connected to the national high-speed rail network; The list of eco-environmental measures in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei in 2023 was announced; In May, the three places signed the "Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Key Industrial Chain Coordination Mechanism Plan", joined strong chains to make up the chain, and opened up "card points" and "blocking points"; In the first half of the year, Hebei undertook the transfer of Beijing and Tianjin to 526 industrial activity units, and xiong’an new area’s investment in fixed assets increased by 17.8% year-on-year & hellip; … The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei on the track runs faster and faster, and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei under the blue sky screens the "friend circle", and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei on the industrial transfer chain is prosperous.

  China is in the stage of moving from a middle-income country to a high-income country. International experience shows that this stage is a period of concentrated outbreaks of various contradictions, and it is inevitable that the development is uncoordinated and there are many shortcomings. "To coordinate development, we must find out the shortcomings, make more efforts to fill the shortcomings, tap the development potential and enhance the development potential by filling the shortcomings."

  Make up for shortcomings, promote integration. Since the beginning of this year, xiong’an new area has entered the stage of paying equal attention to large-scale construction and undertaking the function relief of Beijing’s non-capital. The rectification of outstanding ecological problems in the Yangtze River Economic Belt has been steadily promoted, the construction of Hengqin, Qianhai and Nansha cooperation zones has been accelerated, and the pace of integration of science and technology and industry in the Yangtze River Delta has been accelerated. The "endogenous characteristic" of coordination is more prominent.

  Advocate green and polish the background of development.

  Forest and sand compete, green and yellow interweave, Hetao plain, and the Yellow River meanders. In June, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader visited Inner Mongolia. In the work report meeting of the Party Committee and government of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, high-quality development, ecological priority and green development are still "primary" and "guiding" in the work emphasized by the general secretary.

  From July 17th to 18th, the National Conference on Ecological Environment Protection was held. The Supreme Leader General Secretary delivered an important speech, comprehensively summarized the great achievements that attracted worldwide attention in China’s ecological civilization construction, deeply analyzed the current situation faced by ecological civilization construction, profoundly expounded the major relations that need to be handled in the new journey to promote ecological civilization construction, and systematically deployed strategic tasks and major measures to comprehensively promote the construction of beautiful China, providing direction guidance and fundamental follow-up for further strengthening ecological environment protection and promoting ecological civilization construction.

  "We must explore new ways of high-quality development oriented to ecological priority and green development." Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the construction of ecological civilization has undergone historic, turning and overall changes from theory to practice.

  "Support high-quality development with high-quality ecological environment and accelerate the modernization of harmonious coexistence between man and nature." The next five years will be an important period for the construction of beautiful China.

  Carbon reduction, pollution reduction, greening and growth have been promoted in coordination. In the first half of the year, the proportion of sections with excellent water quality in the national surface water assessment increased by 2.1 percentage points year-on-year, the energy consumption per unit GDP decreased by 0.4% year-on-year, and the environmental quality continued to improve. The "universal form" of green is more distinct.

  Thick planting is open, which helps internal and external linkage.

  Xi ‘an, Shaanxi, the eastern starting point of the ancient Silk Road. "China — At the Central Asia Summit, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out, "We should continue to build ‘ Belt and Road ’ Cooperation is at the forefront "and" fully release the potential of traditional cooperation such as economy, trade, production capacity, energy and transportation ".

  Today’s "Silk Road", roads cross mountains, pipelines shuttle through the desert, and trains in Central Europe fly. "Belt and Road", the scenery is just right.

  Opening-up has become a necessity for the high-quality development of China’s economy, and Chinese-style modernization is a modernization that takes the road of peaceful development. "We must unswervingly develop an open world economy, share opportunities and interests in openness, and achieve mutual benefit and win-win."

  The "Invest in China Year" series of activities was launched, and the Consumer Expo and Canton Fair were successfully held one after another, making the circle of friends wider and the development world wider. Up to now, China-Europe trains have reached 216 cities in 25 countries in Europe; In the first half of the year, the total export of "new three products" such as electric manned vehicles, lithium-ion batteries and solar cells increased by 61.6%. Opening up this "only way" is more accessible.

  Promote sharing and accelerate the change of happiness.

  Maoming, Guangdong, a litchi, tastes the initial heart.

  In April, in Baiqiao Village, Genzi Town, Gaozhou City, the "hometown of litchi", General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Developing characteristic industries is an important way to realize rural revitalization, and efforts should be made to ‘ Local products ’ The article promotes the comprehensive revitalization of the countryside with industrial revitalization. " "the Communist Party of China (CPC) has no self-interest. Being in power means serving the people and making the people happy."

  "I hope that the life of the villagers will be more prosperous and as prosperous as litchi!" Baiqiao Village is the first village visited by the General Secretary in China this year. Simple words, deep feelings and heavy righteousness.

  Chinese-style modernization is the modernization of common prosperity for all people. "Only by adhering to the people-centered development thought, insisting that development is for the people, development depends on the people, and development results are shared by the people, can we have a correct concept of development and modernization."

  The affairs of thousands of families are placed on the desk and hung in my heart. At present, 429 cities have completed the preparation of the overall solution of "one old and one small" to achieve full coverage at the prefecture level; This year, 156.7 billion yuan was allocated to help the needy; In the first half of the year, about 65% of the monitored objects eliminated the risk of returning to poverty. The "fundamental purpose" of sharing is more clear.

  The heavy answer sheet has attracted international attention. In June, the 14th Summer Davos Forum was held in Tianjin. Schwab, President of the World Economic Forum, said: "The whole world has benefited from the development of China."

  Carrying out the new development concept is the only way for China to develop and grow in the new era. We will carry out the new development concept in the whole process of economic and social development and in all fields, and strive for innovation through change, progress through innovation, and breakthrough through progress. On the new journey, China will stride forward towards high-quality development.

  "We must better coordinate the effective improvement of quality and the reasonable increase of quantity"

  Two metaphors about "head" are meaningful.

  First, in July this year, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader was quite emotional after his inspection in Jiangsu: "In the past, people thought that we were less than one meter and two, so we didn’t have to buy tickets; Now that we have developed into a 1.89-meter-tall man in Northeast China, we must take the road of self-reliance and self-improvement, and only when the rice bowl is in our own hands can we have ‘ Grain ’ Don’t panic in your heart. Strategic significance, so I spare no effort to promote the strong chain to supplement the chain and extend the chain everywhere. "

  First, in January 2016, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out at the seminar on studying and implementing the spirit of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 18 th CPC Central Committee at the provincial and ministerial level: "Economic development is facing a speed shift node, just like a person, from 10 to 18 years old, he is very long, and the speed of being long slows down after 18 years old."

  At that time, with the increasing economic aggregate, China encountered a series of new situations and problems in its development, which was in the "three-phase superposition" of the growth rate shift period, the structural adjustment pain period and the early stimulus policy digestion period.

  At present, unilateralism, protectionism and anti-globalization are spreading, and China’s development has entered a period in which strategic opportunities and risk challenges coexist and uncertainties and unpredictable factors increase.

  How can you be stronger when you are longer? Two metaphors, one pointing to, "One of the most important aspects of our party’s leadership in governing the country and politics is to answer the important question of what kind of development to achieve and how to achieve it."

  The two overall situations are intertwined, and new situations and new problems follow. At the helm, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader deeply understands that "the effective improvement of quality and the reasonable growth of quantity must be better coordinated".

  From quantitative change to qualitative change is an objective economic law.

  This is a pass that must be crossed. Looking at the world, since the 1960s, only a dozen of the more than 100 middle-income economies in the world have become high-income economies. Those countries and regions that have achieved success have all realized the economic development from quantitative expansion to qualitative improvement after experiencing the stage of rapid growth. "Economic development is a spiral rising process, and the rising is not linear. When the quantity accumulates to a certain stage, it must turn to qualitative improvement".

  This is a transformation that must be faced directly. Looking at itself, the problem of "is there" in most fields has been basically solved, and the problem of "good" is more prominent. When Socialism with Chinese characteristics entered a new era, major changes have taken place in the main social contradictions in China, and the problem of insufficient development imbalance has become more prominent. The contradictions and problems in development are mainly reflected in the quality of development. "We must promote high-quality development to adapt to the new changes in science and technology and the new needs of the people, form a high-quality, efficient and diversified supply system, and provide more high-quality products and services. In this way, supply and demand can be balanced at a new level, and China’s economy can continue to develop healthily. "

  Overall planning of quality and quantity, a necessary question for development, and a crucial question for high-quality development.

  The the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee meeting held on April 28th put forward that "the combination of giving full play to the effectiveness of policies and stimulating the vitality of business entities will form a powerful driving force to promote high-quality development" and "promoting the effective improvement of quality and reasonable growth of the economy".

  The the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee meeting held on July 24th proposed that we should make good use of policy space, find the right direction of development, and solidly promote high-quality economic development.

  Outline of the Strategic Plan for Expanding Domestic Demand (2022— In 2035), the Implementation Plan for the Strategy of Expanding Domestic Demand in the 14th Five-Year Plan was accelerated, and the Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting the Development and Growth of Private Economy was officially issued, which has a strong driving force and full of vitality to promote high-quality development.

  In the first year, all localities and departments implemented the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, insisted on winning by quality, and constantly shaped new development advantages.

  "We keep in mind the entrustment and continue to forge ahead ‘ No man’s land ’ , win the key core technology battle. " Bu Aimin, president of China Electric Power Industry Basic Research Institute, said that the innovative research and development of a series of products provided solid support for the development of manned space flight, lunar Mars exploration, Beidou networking and other equipment and digital economy industries.

  In May, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader who visited Hebei came to China Institute of Electric Power Industry Foundation in Shijiazhuang, stressing that "to promote modernization, we must rely on powerful countries in science and technology and industry. A strong country in science and technology cannot be separated from a scientific and technological elite and a scientific and technological phalanx. "

  Effective improvement of quality is the proper meaning of high-quality development. All regions and departments rely on scientific and technological innovation to improve the quality of supply, adhere to the priority of efficiency, constantly open up new areas of development, and expand new development momentum.

  The effective improvement of quality makes the momentum of "progress" more sufficient.

  The development momentum is surging. In the first half of the year, investment in high-tech industries increased by 12.5% year-on-year. Investment in professional technical services and scientific and technological achievements transformation services increased by 51.6% and 46.3% respectively; Investment in manufacturing industry increased by 6% year-on-year, of which investment in equipment manufacturing industry increased by 14.4%, which played an obvious supporting role in manufacturing investment growth.

  The economic structure has improved. In the first half of the year, economic growth was mainly driven by industry last year, and it was promoted by service industry and industry together; The contribution rate of service industry growth to economic growth has exceeded 60%, which has greatly increased.

  Market vitality is released. By the end of May, there were 50,927,600 registered private enterprises in China, which was 3.7 times higher than the 10,857,000 registered private enterprises at the end of 2012. There were more than 25 million private enterprises with new technologies, new industries, new formats and new models.

  Maintain a reasonable growth in quantity and lay a solid foundation for achieving high-quality development.

  "The economy should continue to develop, and there should be no ups and downs." General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out.

  Dialectically understanding and scientifically coordinating the relationship between quality and quantity of economic development is an important experience of our party in leading economic work. For an economy as big as China, it is helpful to ensure the smooth economic cycle and maintain the overall social stability to persist in striving for progress while maintaining a reasonable increase in quantity.

  The reasonable growth of quantity makes the foundation of "stability" stronger.

  On May 5th, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over the first meeting of the 20th Central Financial and Economic Committee, which emphasized "understanding, adapting and leading the new normal of population development" and "supporting Chinese modernization with high-quality population development".

  On July 20th, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over the second meeting of the Central Financial and Economic Committee, emphasizing "effectively strengthening the protection of cultivated land, making every effort to improve the quality of cultivated land, fully tapping the comprehensive utilization potential of saline-alkali land, steadily expanding the agricultural production space and improving the comprehensive agricultural production capacity".

  Go all out to fix the chassis. This year’s summer grain output reached 146.13 million tons, and another bumper harvest; In the first half of the year, the total primary energy production increased by 2.7% year-on-year, and we stabilized the two "rice bowls" of grain and energy.

  Do everything possible to stabilize employment. Beijing expands job supply to promote the employment of college graduates; Shaanxi has introduced six new measures, such as raising employment subsidy standards and fully discounting business guarantee loans; In the first half of the year, the stable employment policy of the human and social departments released dividends exceeding 150 billion yuan.

  Take more measures and draw the bottom line. We implemented the youth employment and entrepreneurship promotion plan focusing on 10 actions such as improving the quality of employment internships, and issued the Opinions on Promoting the Construction of the Basic Old-age Service System, expanding the variety of centralized procurement of pharmaceutical consumables, and the people’s sense of acquisition, happiness and security continued to increase.

  If the quality and quantity of economic development are organically unified, and a vivid situation and a strong synergy are formed in which the whole country is competing to promote high-quality development, it will certainly continue to stimulate the endogenous motivation of economic development.

  Insight into danger and opportunity — —

  "Accelerate the construction of a new development pattern with the domestic big cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycles promoting each other"

  Changes in the world, times and history are unfolding in an unprecedented way.

  Accurately recognizing change, responding scientifically and actively seeking change, contemporary the Communist Party of China (CPC) people calmly respond.

  Silicon wafer assembly, photovoltaic concentration, green electricity to ten thousand households. Manufacturing and new energy are closely linked. In the Central Industrial Park in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, we are aiming at the localization of semiconductor monocrystalline silicon and tackling key problems.

  Small silicon chips are connected with major strategies. On June 7th, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader visited the Central Industrial Park. After some exhortations, I earnestly said: "To build a new development pattern, we must first do a good job in the domestic macro-cycle, which is the fundamental solution." "We open our doors and anyone who comes to cooperate with us is welcome."

  Accelerating the construction of a new development pattern is a strategic decision based on achieving the goal of the second century, overall development and security, and a strategic deployment to grasp the initiative of future development. In April, 2020, at the seventh meeting of the Central Financial and Economic Committee, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader proposed for the first time to build a new development pattern with the domestic big cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycles promoting each other.

  Report to the 20th CPC National Congress, the Communist Party of China, put forward that "we should speed up the construction of a new development pattern with the domestic big cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycles promoting each other".

  The key choice of the overall development of the relationship comes from the profound insight into the crisis and opportunity. From the domestic cycle before the reform and opening up to joining the international cycle, the "world factory" development model helps to rapidly enhance economic strength. In recent years, economic globalization has met with counter-current, the game between big countries has become increasingly fierce, and the environmental conditions of big entry and big exit have changed. "Only by unblocking the domestic circulation and striving to cultivate a body that is invulnerable to all poisons and indestructible to the king kong can we let the international situation change and always survive and develop with vigor, and no one can knock us down and jam us."

  The the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee meeting held on July 24th pointed out that the current economic operation is facing new difficulties and challenges, mainly due to insufficient domestic demand, difficulties in some enterprises’ operation, many hidden risks in key areas and complicated and severe external environment. After the smooth transition of epidemic prevention and control, economic recovery is a process of wave development and tortuous progress.

  Strive to cultivate opportunities in the crisis and open a new game in the changing situation. Under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, all localities and departments have better coordinated the two overall domestic and international situations, expanded domestic demand, increased advantages, supplemented shortcomings, and smoothed the cycle, presenting a new atmosphere and showing new achievements in service and integration into the new development pattern.

  The key to building a new development pattern lies in the unimpeded economic cycle.

  "Two guarantees" are very important. Based on oneself, smooth circulation.

  All terrain crane vigorously pulls mountains and rivers. The general secretary is very concerned about this major technical equipment.

  In December 2017, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came to Xugong Group during his inspection in Jiangsu, and boarded the cab of XCA220 all-terrain wheeled crane with great interest.

  During the National People’s Congress this year, the representative of Shan Zenghai from Xugong Group brought good news: "In 2017, the key indicators of the 220-ton all terrain crane you took when you visited Xugong have reached the top in the world, and the localization rate has increased from 71% to 100%."

  "I often say that two things will be guaranteed. One is that China, a grain rice bowl, must be firmly secured, and another manufacturing industry must be firmly secured. A big country with a population of more than 1.4 billion must solve these two problems on its own, and cannot ‘ Eat all over the sky with one stroke ’ No international market can protect us. " The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader expressed his feelings.

  Upstream, the whole body has more than 10,000 kinds and more than 100,000 parts; Downstream, the construction field covers municipal, chemical, wind power and other scenes. All terrain crane, grasp the industrial chain, smooth the upstream and downstream.

  "The new development pattern is based on the modern industrial system, and the smooth economic cycle requires orderly links and efficient smoothness of all industries."

  In the past 10 years in the new era, the scale of manufacturing industry has ranked first in the world for 13 consecutive years, and the output of more than 220 kinds of industrial products has ranked first in the world. The endogenous power and reliability of domestic large-scale circulation have been continuously enhanced.

  Short-board industries complement the chain, advantageous industries extend the chain, traditional industries upgrade the chain and emerging industries build the chain. In the first half of this year, the added value of 26 of the 41 major industrial sectors maintained a year-on-year growth, and China continued to move towards a modern industrial system that is self-controllable, safe, reliable and competitive.

  The most essential feature of building a new development pattern is to achieve a high level of self-reliance and self-improvement.

  Walking nonstop, I am worried about "innovation" along the way.

  In May 2020, in Shanxi Taigang Stainless Steel Precision Strip Co., Ltd., General Secretary of the Supreme Leader encouraged enterprises to "make persistent efforts in scientific and technological innovation and bravely climb the peak". Grateful to forge ahead, the "hand-torn steel" was reduced from 0.02 mm to 0.015 mm, and the "soft fingers" was upgraded.

  In June 2022, in Donghu New Technology Development Zone, Wuhan, Hubei Province, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized "Breakthrough ‘ Get stuck in the neck ’ Key core technologies are urgent. " Work hard, a beam of laser turns into "the fastest knife, the most accurate ruler and the brightest light" here.

  Talk about hope and point out the path. "Self-reliance in science and technology is the fundamental support to promote the overall development, and it is the key to ensure the smooth domestic circulation and shape China’s new advantages in the international circulation." "To promote the construction of a new development pattern and achieve high-quality development, it is urgent for us to strengthen basic research and solve key technical problems from the source and the bottom."

  In the past 10 years in the new era, from the vast fields to the sea of stars, the innovative notes of high-quality development marches are passionate and loud. The longest sea-crossing bridge, the largest 5G network and the longest quantum communication … … The total number of R&D personnel ranks first in the world, and the effective number of invention patents ranks first in the world. China has entered the ranks of innovative countries with its head held high.

  "Grasping innovation will seize the ‘ that affects the overall economic and social development; Niubi ’ 。” Under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, China has unswervingly taken the road of independent innovation with China characteristics, vigorously built an innovative country and a powerful country in science and technology, and promoted historic, holistic and structural changes in science and technology.

  To accelerate the construction of a new development pattern, we must firmly grasp the strategic basis of expanding domestic demand.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "The formation of a strong domestic market is an important support for building a new development pattern and is also the economic advantage of a big country."

  The pedestrian street is crowded with people, and it is hard to get a ticket for the scenic spot. During the May Day holiday, the number of domestic tourists increased by 70.83% year-on-year; During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, domestic tourism revenue reached 37.31 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 44.5%. In the first year, mobile China was full of vitality.

  Super-large-scale market advantage, super-large population size and super-large economic volume contain high-quality development momentum.

  Consumption is picking up. "Combination boxing" has been played one after another, and the consumption season is brilliant, exerting new consumption, new scenes and new kinetic energy to promote energy consumption, dare to consume and be willing to consume. In the first half of the year, the total retail sales of social consumer goods increased by 8.2% year-on-year, maintaining rapid growth; The contribution rate of final consumption expenditure to economic growth reached 77.2%, significantly higher than last year.

  Invest in strength. The construction period is reversed, and the horsepower is fully open. The project of diverting water from Han to Wei benefited Qinchuan. The world’s first 16 MW offshore wind turbine is connected to the grid to generate electricity, and gurgling green electricity is generated at sea. We will accelerate the implementation of 102 major projects in the Tenth Five-Year Plan, promote private capital to participate in the construction of major national projects, and increase investment in infrastructure and manufacturing by 7.2% and 6% respectively, giving full play to the key role of effective investment.

  To speed up the construction of a new development pattern, we must coordinate the internal and external. “‘ Double cycle ’ We don’t want to close our doors, but when others don’t open the door for us, we can live and live better ourselves. " "Economic globalization is the avenue, and cooperation and win-win is the best."

  The second anniversary of the global development initiative, the tenth anniversary of the initiative to jointly build the Belt and Road, and the tenth anniversary of the concept of building a community of human destiny … … Standing at a new historical starting point, China will only open wider and wider. All localities and departments persist in comprehensively deepening reforms, expanding high-level opening to the outside world, continuously enhancing the momentum and vitality of the domestic and international cycle, and adding new kinetic energy to promote high-quality economic development.

  Unify knowledge and action — —

  "Continuously improve the ability to promote high-quality development, serve the masses, and prevent and resolve risks"

  Unswervingly promote high-quality development and promote Chinese modernization. What do you think and do in the first year?

  After four investigations and four "party classes", the theme education went deep and practical.

  In April, in Guangdong, the Supreme Leader’s General Secretary emphasized that "learning should be used to build a soul" and "it is necessary to deepen, internalize and transform the study and implementation of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era".

  In May, in Shaanxi, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader explained that "learning to increase wisdom" and "learning the skills of housekeeping, rejuvenating the party and strengthening the country".

  In June, in Inner Mongolia, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader called for "learning to correct the wind" and "adhering to the combination of goal orientation and problem orientation, and integrating learning, investigation and reform".

  In July, in Jiangsu, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader called for "learning to promote dry work", "enhancing the motivation of dry work, forming a joint force of dry work, and achieving tangible results in promoting dry work with learning".

  The knower begins to walk, and the walker knows what to do. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader profoundly pointed out that it is necessary to educate and guide party member and cadres to learn their thoughts and actions, establish a correct view of power, achievements and career, enhance their sense of responsibility and mission, constantly improve their ability to promote high-quality development, serve the masses, prevent and resolve risks, strengthen the cultivation of struggle spirit and struggle skills, and boost their spirit of forging ahead and acting as promising people.

  Practicality is a prominent feature of Marxism, and the purpose of learning is to use it. Take learning as the traction, seek first, and do it in practice.

  Based on the current situation, the endogenous motivation is not strong and the demand is still insufficient. There are still many difficulties and challenges to be overcome to promote high-quality development. Face up to difficulties and be brave.

  Taking a long-term view and promoting Chinese modernization is an unprecedented pioneering cause. Glorious expedition, work hard to prosper the country.

  New journey, new departure, new charge. In the first year, we thoroughly studied and implemented the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, worked hard, and hundreds of millions of people gathered the surging force of high-quality development.

  Looking at the overall situation from the beginning, with a more perfect system guarantee, we will go forward bravely.

  On May 28th, through the grand Watergate Ceremony, C919 completed its commercial maiden voyage.

  Twenty-two provinces and more than 200 enterprises have worked together to tackle key problems, overcome 163 key technologies and form 1935 patents. How many people have worked hard day and night, and several generations of aviation people have worked hard.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader praised in his New Year message in 2023: "The third aircraft carrier ‘ Fujian ’ Launched, the first C919 aircraft was officially delivered, and Baihetan Hydropower Station was put into full operation … … All this is condensed with the hard work and sweat of countless people. A little spark, gathered into a torch, this is the power of China! "

  Up to now, the Three Gorges Power Station has sent more than 1.6 trillion kWh of green electricity in 20 years, and the new generation of EMU test trains run at a maximum speed of 453 kilometers per hour in a single row and 891 kilometers per hour in two directions & HELIP; … Since the beginning of this year, new report cards have been handed over by national heavy weapons and century projects, all of which prove that "our greatest advantage is that China’s socialist system can concentrate on doing great things." This is an important magic weapon for our career. "

  Chinese’s "big plane dream" has been flying for more than half a century, which is closely related to the development of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and the great changes in the new era in the past 10 years.

  Stabilize the economy, promote development, fight poverty, build a well-off society, control the epidemic situation, resist major disasters, cope with the situation and resolve the crisis. In the past 10 years in the new era, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has placed system construction in a more prominent position, adhered to and improved the party’s leadership system, adhered to and improved the basic socialist economic system, adhered to and improved the system of prospering and developing advanced socialist culture, and adhered to and improved the social governance system of co-construction, co-governance and sharing … … Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s system is more mature and stereotyped, and the modernization level of national governance system and governance capacity has been significantly improved.

  China today has backbone. Upholding the Party’s overall leadership is the only way to uphold and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and Socialism with Chinese characteristics is the only way to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

  On the new journey, we will be able to overcome all the risk challenges and push Socialism with Chinese characteristics forward in the new era by thinking in one place and making efforts in one place to better transform China’s institutional advantages into the effectiveness of national governance.

  Looking at the overall situation from the beginning, we have a more solid material foundation, and we are struggling to run.

  In the Pearl River Delta, 95% of the parts in a mobile phone can be quickly assembled in the one-hour commute circle in Dongguan; A finished drone can be manufactured without leaving Nanshan District, Shenzhen.

  In the Yangtze River Delta, on average, five new energy vehicles rolled off the assembly line in one minute, and 70,000 pieces of express delivery were unblocked, accounting for less than 4% of the country’s land area, creating nearly a quarter of China’s total economic output and more than a third of its total import and export volume.

  "China has strong economic resilience, great potential and full vitality, and its long-term positive fundamentals remain unchanged. As long as we are confident and strive for progress steadily, we will certainly achieve our set goals. "

  Today’s China has confidence. We won a major decisive victory in epidemic prevention and control, and remained the second largest economy, the largest industrial country and the largest trader of goods in the world. The country’s economic strength, scientific and technological strength and comprehensive national strength have leapt to a new level and embarked on a higher quality, more efficient, fairer, more sustainable and safer development path.

  On the new journey, by changing the mode, adjusting the structure, increasing the kinetic energy, making good use of the deep and broad advantages of big countries’ economies and building a strong and resilient national economic circulation system, we will certainly be able to achieve greater breakthroughs and take a higher step.

  Looking at the overall situation from the beginning, we have more active spiritual strength and we are full of confidence.

  Vast fields, season after season. "The facilities are upgrading, the scale is expanding, and the average income per mu exceeds 20,000 yuan. The way is right, and the more dry it is, the more it will be." Ye Minglan, head of the Four Seasons Spring Agricultural Park in Xianfeng Village, Dantu District, Zhenjiang City, Jiangsu Province, said. The villagers in Pioneer Village can’t forget that in December 2014, in Pioneer Village Agricultural Park, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader told them that "modern and efficient agriculture is a good way for farmers to get rich".

  The blades fly and generate electricity with all their strength. At 12: 01 on June 25, 100 billion kWh! "After three years of production, the transmission of green electricity to Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has exceeded 100 billion kWh. Next, we will manage it carefully and operate it lean, and take good care of ‘ A great country is a heavy weapon ’ 。” Wang Jintao, director of Wudongde Power Plant of China Three Gorges Group, expressed emotion. All the staff of the power plant will never forget that in June 2020, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made an important instruction to "strive to make wudongde hydropower station into a high-quality project".

  China today is ambitious. "If everyone does one thing and does a good job, the cause of the party and the country can move forward."

  "It is a matter of one or two generations to achieve the goal of the second century. We are at the right time, live up to it, and make contributions to our generation."

  Firmly grasp the top priority of development, firmly grasp the top priority of high-quality development, firmly establish the concept of political achievements for the benefit of the people, get up the spirit of entrepreneurship, and form a good situation of paying close attention to implementation. On the new journey, we will promote high-quality development with new weather and new actions and achieve new results.

E-commerce platform cracking "pain point" is expected to open up the stock space of used cars.

  In the first 10 months, the growth rate of used car trading volume was 14.3 percentage points higher than that of new car sales. From the development history of developed countries, the volume of used cars in the United States, Germany and other automobile countries has been more than twice that of new cars; On the other hand, the trading volume of used cars in China is still less than half of the sales volume of new cars, which fully shows the future development potential of China’s used car market. With the entry of e-commerce platform, problems such as integrity that hindered the development of used car market in the past are expected to be solved — —

  While the new car market is weak, the used car market has ushered in spring. A few days ago, statistics from china automobile dealers association showed that the national second-hand car transaction volume was 1.267 million in October, up 7.3% year-on-year. In the first 10 months, a total of 11.853 million used cars were traded, up 4.6% year-on-year. The growth rate of used car trading volume was 14.3 percentage points higher than that of new car sales. Experts said that the used car market continued its good trend of "Golden September and Silver 10" in October, and the market prospect was promising.

  The stock market will dominate.

  The automobile industry has always been hailed as a "macroeconomic stabilizer", which not only plays an important role in upstream manufacturing, but also plays a significant role in downstream industries such as finance, insurance, maintenance, tourism and catering. Authoritative data show that the contribution rate of automobile consumption to the year-on-year growth rate of retail sales of social consumer goods can reach 20%. With the slowdown of new car consumption, promoting the circulation of used cars has become one of the important means to expand domestic demand.

  It is understood that the world’s major automobile countries have a huge used car market far exceeding the sales of new cars. During the ten years from 1986 to 1996, the sales of new cars of the top 500 retailers in the United States decreased by 8.8%, but the sales of used cars increased by 40%. Since 1990, the annual transaction volume of used cars in the United States has been stable between 40 million and 45 million, which is about three times that of new cars. The average price of each used car is about $16,500. From this calculation, the annual used car market in the United States is about $600 billion to $700 billion.

  In recent ten years, the volume of used cars in Germany has been more than twice that of new cars, and the ratio in South Korea and Japan is basically stable at 1.45∶1. At the same time, the penetration rate of German auto finance reached 76.7% in 2017.

  From 2009 to 2018, the transaction volume of used cars in China increased from 3.8 million to 13.82 million, nearly tripling in 10 years, with a strong development momentum; However, compared with the sales of 28.1 million new cars in 2018, the transaction volume of used cars is still less than half of that of new cars, which shows that there is still much room for development in China’s used car market. In the past eight years, the compound annual growth rate of used car transactions has also exceeded 22%; It is estimated that the transaction volume of used cars is expected to exceed 1 trillion yuan this year.

  The insiders believe that according to the development of automobile industry in developed countries and the increasing trend of new car ownership in China, there is still room for growth of automobile consumption in China in the future, but the growth rate will gradually slow down; The dominant force will shift from the incremental market dominated by new car sales to the stock market dominated by used car circulation.

  Lack of integrity hinders the release of potential

  In recent years, relevant departments have jointly issued favorable policies to encourage the consumption of used cars for many times, so as to stimulate the growth of market capacity and protect the development of the used car market from the policy level. A few days ago, the State Council issued "Guiding Opinions on Further Expanding and Upgrading Information Consumption to Release the Potential of Domestic Demand", which clearly put forward new formats and models to encourage the establishment of online and offline omni-channel and format-integrated experiential consumption scenarios, so as to effectively release market vitality and consumer demand. In addition, in promoting the circulation of used cars, the implementation of the policy of completely canceling the restrictions on the movement of used cars has also been mentioned many times, further stimulating the consumption of used cars from all aspects.

  At present, if the owner wants to transfer the used car, there are roughly the following ways: First, transfer it to someone he knows, also known as "acquaintance transaction"; The second is to replace new cars through 4S stores; The third is the offline used car market transaction. Among them, because of the short transaction time and high proportion in the second-hand car market, the sale time and procedures are more convenient, which is the mainstream second-hand car trading method at present.

  However, due to the uniqueness of used car products and the imperfect market supervision system and policy norms, the business philosophy, trading model and market environment are very backward. In the traditional offline second-hand car trading market, there are often some "black car dealers", and dishonest behaviors such as trading fraud, concealing car condition and profiteering are common, which not only damages consumers’ rights and interests, but also brings serious security risks to users and road traffic.

  According to the statistics of china automobile dealers association, there are more than 150,000 used car dealers at present, and the average annual transaction volume of each car is less than 100. The fragmented transaction has seriously hindered the large-scale development of the industry. In addition, due to the asymmetric information between buyers and sellers and the lack of transparency in car condition and price, users have great distrust of traditional used car transactions, which seriously affects the overall reputation and reputation of the used car industry and the release of the potential of the used car market.

  E-commerce platform cracks "pain points"

  In recent years, the booming of second-hand car e-commerce has made it possible to break through the "bottleneck" of the above industries, which has boosted the accelerated development of China’s second-hand car market. Taking the second-hand car of melon seeds as an example, the new technologies, new formats and new models based on the platform economy have infiltrated and reconstructed the traditional industrial structure, and made efforts to solve the "pain points" of the industry and better protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers. At the same time, the platform itself has also achieved rapid development.

  Feng Hua, director of the Institute of Service Economy and Emerging Industries of Beijing Jiaotong University, believes that in the era of new Internet economy, automobile trading has entered a new stage of the development of platform economy, and the national unified second-hand car trading platform will inevitably rise rapidly. The industrial ecology formed on the basis of the platform, the leading enterprises in the industry are the organizers and leaders of the platform, which is meaningful to the standardization and innovation of the whole industry and will effectively promote the standardized and high-quality development of the used car market.

  Feng Hua said that the Internet platform has the following promoting effects on the traditional used car industry. First, it promotes the transparency of the industry. Through the application of big data and artificial intelligence technology, Internet platform enterprises have built a trading mode with transparent vehicle conditions and standardized pricing. The second is to accelerate cross-regional automobile circulation. Internet can easily break the physical space restrictions, effectively gather vehicle sources, and build related infrastructure such as logistics and equipment, which can more effectively promote cross-regional automobile circulation. The third is to enhance the industrial value. Compared with the traditional second-hand car trading, the internet platform has transformed the second-hand car trading from low-frequency trading to high-frequency service by building and improving the ecological service chain, greatly improving quality and efficiency.

  In addition, compared with traditional formats, Internet platforms have more incentive to strengthen their own responsibilities and protect consumers’ rights and interests. Xiong Bingwan, a researcher at the Institute of Future Rule of Law of Renmin University of China, said that platforms have market attributes, and platform operators should not only cultivate and operate the market, but also have the responsibility to carry out market supervision. For example, the platform should review the access of merchants, design the platform agreement, carry out credit management for settled merchants, deal with illegal behaviors of merchants, resolve consumer disputes, persuade bad merchants, and so on. In fact, the platform itself has the motivation and ability to play a self-regulatory role in platform affairs.

  Experts said that the overall market size of the used car industry is huge. At present, the penetration rate of used car e-commerce in the whole used car industry is low, and it is still in the early stage of development, which has huge room for development. At present, China’s second-hand car market is in disorder, in fact, in the United States and Japan and other countries with mature second-hand car industry. In the future, with the gradual improvement of the second-hand car testing system and trading system, China’s second-hand car e-commerce and second-hand car market are also expected to mature.

Alibaba: Growth benefits from the opportunities of the times and the confidence of China market in future development.

On November 9, 2022 world internet conference opened in Wuzhen, Zhejiang.

At the plenary meeting after the opening ceremony, Zhang Yong, Chairman and CEO of Alibaba Group, shared his observation and practice on the integration of digital economy and real economy.

Zhang Yong said,Ali’s growth benefits from the opportunities of the times and the big market in China. Alibaba will always take root in the real economy, make good use of digital technology to help small and medium-sized enterprises, and accelerate the arrival of industrial changes.

Alibaba: Growth benefits from the opportunities of the times and the confidence of China market in future development.

The following are the main contents of Zhang Yong’s speech at the conference:

In the past 20 years, the wave of Internet and digital technology has swept the world. As a pioneer in actively embracing digitalization, the upsurge of building a digital economy has risen in an all-round way in China. By last year, China’s digital economy reached 45.5 trillion yuan, accounting for nearly 40% of GDP, and became one of the important engines to promote China’s economic growth.

We see that,Data has become a new cell of the whole society, digital infrastructure constitutes a new skeleton of society, and digitalization of industry has become a new texture of social operation.Digital economy is increasingly integrated into economy, society and people’s daily lives.

Report to the 20th CPC National Congress put forward that "the focus of economic development should be on the real economy" and mentioned "accelerating the development of digital economy". The real economy is the basic guarantee for a country’s modernization, while the digital economy is the most active and penetrating economic type in the world at present.

Both digital industrialization and industrial digitalization are the products of the integration and development of digital economy and real economy. You have me, and I have you.The integration of the two will surely become a strong driving force for national economic growth and social progress.

Alibaba: Growth benefits from the opportunities of the times and the confidence of China market in future development.

With the continuous development and evolution of digital wave in the past 20 years, and the continuous integration with social economy and life, Alibaba’s development has also experienced three major historical stages: participating in the construction of digital circulation, digital logistics and digital computing. Here, I also share my own summary and thinking from our years of practice.

First of all, looking back at the early days of Internet development, China’s huge population and market provided natural soil for the development of digital economy, which made the commerce and trade service industry take the lead in directly connecting with end customers or consumers by building digital circulation channels, and became the driving force for the rapid growth of digital economy in China in the early days.

Alibaba’s growth benefits from this opportunity and the development potential of the unique China market.By building a digital commerce and trade circulation platform, on the one hand, it connects the vast number of China consumers on the demand side, on the other hand, it connects tens of millions of merchants and diversified service ecology on the supply side.

Today, Taobao Tmall, Box Horse, a new retail representative of Ali, and RT Mart, a large supermarket after digital comprehensive transformation, are using digital distribution channels and digital marketing methods to gain insight and create market demand and better serve consumers’ pursuit of a better life. On the other hand, through the promotion of demand side, it can not only create supply, but also reduce the circulation cost of merchants, improve business efficiency, and promote or even force the reform of supply side.

Second, the change of digitalization to the real economy not only occurs in the field of large circulation, but also is more widely integrated into other fields. The construction of "great circulation" has also spawned a digital "great logistics" system that is closely related to everyone today. The logistics system is related to the national economy and people’s livelihood, which not only runs through all links of production, distribution, circulation and consumption, but also relates to the first, second and third industries, especially in the emergency such as epidemic situation, which highlights its strategic importance.

Logistics is connected, materials are connected, production can be sustained, the market can prosper, and life can be stable. In the past ten years, the annual express parcel volume in China has increased from 5.7 billion to 108.3 billion, ranking first in the world for eight consecutive years, and the annual parcel volume in 2021 will account for more than half of the world. Behind all this, the role of digitalization is crucial.

Alibaba Group’s smart logistics platform rookie was founded nearly ten years ago. In the past ten years, starting with the electronic face sheet, we have first realized the digitalization of express parcels, and are now moving towards the comprehensive digitalization of logistics elements.The low-cost and high-efficiency operation mode brought by digitalization, combined with the unique consumption and labor market pattern of China, has made today’s efficient express delivery network.

This network is also striding towards overseas markets. At present, rookie has more than 240 charter flights for trunk transportation every month in the world, and has cooperated with more than 50 ports around the world to open up an intelligent customs clearance system, and a high-quality global parcel network is taking shape.

Third, the agricultural age depends on water conservancy, the industrial age depends on electricity, and the digital age depends on computing power. With the deepening of trade circulation and the development of logistics, digitalization not only changes sales and marketing, but also extends to all fields of production and operation of enterprises such as R&D and manufacturing, and can also be applied to all aspects of urban and social public governance. The use of data in all walks of life is increasing geometrically, and computing is becoming an indispensable universal ability. The real era of cloud computing is coming.

As early as 2017, the country proposed the construction of industrial Internet, and digital technology began to promote more traditional industries for digital transformation. Through the digital reconstruction of production, design and manufacturing links, the best process is deduced by using big data model, the labor cost is reduced, the productivity and efficiency are improved, and the traditional industries are full of new vitality.

Alibaba is also involved in a series of processes to help digitize traditional industries.For example, Zhoushan Port in Ningbo is known as the "No.1 port in the world", and its throughput ranks first in the world for many years, which is closely related to the concept of "digital strong port".

Based on the technical services provided by Alibaba, such as cloud computing, artificial intelligence and 5G, Zhoushan Meishan Port has developed its own terminal operating system to create a "port brain", including cooperative automatic driving of vehicles and roads in the port area, intelligent cooperative scheduling of yards, high-precision positioning of gantry crane loading and unloading, berth prediction, and so on. According to the data such as the duration of the ship’s stay and the type of goods, the berth can be allocated reasonably, and the storage yard for loading and unloading can be analyzed, even to the exact location. This alone is equivalent to saving a berth with a cost of 1 billion for Zhoushan Meishan Port every two years.

These practices and cases all illustrate that the digital economy can be fully integrated with the real economy, and such integration can also make the digital economy more inclusive.At present, the society is entering a new stage of development, and in pursuit of higher quality development, it is necessary to make the development results more inclusive.

Alibaba Group has been making continuous efforts in the popularization of digital technology, hoping to create more employment opportunities by helping more industries, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, enjoy digital dividends. We believe that this is the best way for a platform-based enterprise like Ali to create social value.

2022 is destined to be a very crucial year in history.Although challenges such as climate change, recurrent epidemics and global inflation are still around, we are full of confidence in the future.This confidence stems from the high consistency between Ali’s own development goals and the country’s long-term development goals, and from the high consensus of the whole society on promoting the development of the real economy with digital technology.

Alibaba will always take root in the real economy, actively participate in the construction of a community of destiny in cyberspace, make good use of digital technology, participate in the process of digitalization of industries in all walks of life, and serve consumers’ continuous pursuit of a better life. Based on full consensus and common belief, let’s be firm in our peers and create a better digital future.

86.4% of the respondents said that plastic bags should be controlled. They are used most in the vegetable market.

  This year is the ninth year of the official implementation of the "Plastic Restriction Order". In some places, the situation of plastic restrictions is getting more and more embarrassing, and many small shops still provide free plastic bags. What do you think of the implementation effect of the plastic limit order?

  Last week, a survey of 2007 respondents conducted by the Social Investigation Center of China Youth Newspaper showed that 41.9% of the respondents thought that the "plastic restriction order" was implemented well, 31.6% thought it was average, and 26.4% said it was not effective. Vegetable market (69.4%), street vendors (65.5%) and supermarkets (56.3%) were cited as the places where plastic bags were used most. 86.4% of the respondents believe that the use of plastic bags needs to be further controlled.

  Vegetable market (69.4%), street vendors (65.5%) and supermarkets (56.3%) were accused of using plastic bags the most.

  Zhang Hongyan, a 35-year-old staff member of a supermarket in Beijing, said that many people have developed the habit of bringing their own shopping bags when shopping in the supermarket. "The plastic limit order has still produced great results. I just feel that in the past two years, there has been some slack in implementation. " Zhang Hongyan said that the consumption level is rising, and some young people don’t care about a few cents, and sometimes they buy it for convenience.

  Zhang Hongyan said that the vegetable and fruit areas are the places where plastic bags are used the most. "These should be classified and repackaged for weighing, so there is no way to avoid using plastic bags, and there is no way to restrict their use. Tearing plastic bags by hand in the supermarket is the biggest consumption every day. " Zhang Hongyan said frankly that some people think that plastic bags for fruits are free, so they will tear off a lot of them and take them away. "Now supermarkets can only put plastic bags near the staff to remind consumers to take them as needed.".

  Liu Yufen (a pseudonym), a 61-year-old retired teacher, usually brings her own shopping bag when she goes to the supermarket, but she still needs plastic bags from supermarkets or businesses to buy food and fruit. "I can’t say that I bought two potatoes and still hold them in my hand. They are all soil and can’t be mixed." She believes that the "plastic limit order" has provided an excuse for some businesses to buy and sell plastic bags. "Plastic bags are still used everywhere, especially in the vegetable market." She said that there are still many products that are over-packaged, which is "a waste".

  Do people care about spending a few cents on plastic bags when shopping at ordinary times? 60.1% of the respondents would care, while 39.9% said they didn’t care. On which occasion are plastic bags used most frequently? The vegetable market (69.4%), street vendors (65.5%) and supermarkets (56.3%) were the most frequently used, followed by express delivery and take-out (32.9%) and shopping malls (22.1%).

  Regarding the implementation effect of the "Plastic Restriction Order", 41.9% of the respondents thought it was good, 31.6% thought it was average, and 26.4% said it was not effective.

  Liu Junhai, a professor at the Law School of Renmin University of China, believes that the enforcement effect of the Plastic Restriction Order is not ideal. Judging from the current social situation, it is basically that merchants make money, consumers pay the bill, and plastic bags are used at will. This is not the original intention of the "Plastic Restriction Order", but the original intention of the "Plastic Restriction Order" is to curb and put an end to the prevalence of plastic bags. But now, plastic bags are still produced as before, sold as before, used as before, and businesses make money as before.

71.6% of the respondents believe that consumers do not establish environmental awareness and actively abide by the "plastic limit order"

  The "Plastic Restriction Order" has been implemented for nine years, and some people say that the effect is not as good as the original one, or even "exists in name only". Liu Junhai believes that there are four main reasons for this: "First, since the implementation of the policy for nine years, there has been no evaluation of the effect after the event, and there will be no greater progress without evaluation. Second, businessmen are mercenary, basically putting ‘ Plastic limit order ’ As a way to make a profit, while charging for plastic bags, consumers are not provided with free environment-friendly shopping bags at the same time. At that time, on the one hand, merchants should be required to limit the sale of plastic bags, on the other hand, they should be required to provide free paper bags or cloth bags at appropriate prices. Third, consumers are irrational about the consumption of plastic bags and don’t care about buying plastic bags for a few cents. It is not enough to promote consumers to use environmentally friendly paper bags and cloth bags and recycle them. "

  The implementation effect of the "plastic restriction order" is not satisfactory, and 71.6% of the respondents believe that consumers have not established environmental awareness and do not take the initiative to comply; 62.4% of the respondents pointed out that supervision is not in place and it is difficult to establish a plastic-limited environment; 52.3% of the respondents believe that the policy lacks specific regulations and guidance; 41.3% of the respondents pointed out that retail merchants still offered plastic bags for free.

  Liu Junhai believes that the "government’s hand" is missing in regulating the use of plastic bags. Liu Junhai introduced that the "Plastic Restraint Order" was interpreted as "selling" in some places when it was implemented. He felt that consumers would definitely not be willing to use it as long as they needed to spend money. After a long time, businesses would naturally not be able to sell it, and they wanted to use the "invisible hand" of the market to regulate the use of plastic bags. This design idea is good, but it does not solve the problem because it is not operable. In the eyes of many consumers, plastic bags are just needed, so they can only buy plastic bags from merchants without shopping bags, and with the improvement of residents’ living standards, a few cents can no longer be used as a means of market regulation.

  "As long as it is continuously produced, it will definitely be used in large quantities. Now the farmer’s market is still using a large number of unqualified plastic bags, which has not been curbed from the beginning. Moreover, industrial policies and regulatory policies are not compatible. " Liu Junhai said, "The manufacturer’s illegal production of plastic bags has not been detected, which is the failure of supervision by the regulatory authorities and the lack of administrative punishment means. It is also debatable whether macro-control means such as tax rate, interest rate and government procurement can serve the macro-control policy of limiting plastics."

  86.4% of the respondents think that the use of plastic bags should be further controlled.

  According to the poll, 86.4% of the respondents think that it is necessary to further control the use of plastic bags, and 36.1% of the respondents speak frankly.

  Zhang Hongyan hopes that the government will strengthen publicity, raise consumers’ awareness of environmental protection and consciously reduce the use of shopping bags. "Secondly, we should produce more high-quality plastic bags for everyone to recycle and reduce waste."

  Liu Yufen believes that the supply should be cut off from the source. "In the past, when there were no plastic bags, we all bought vegetables with baskets and wrapped them in kraft paper. There was nothing inconvenient and there would be no white garbage. Later, plastic bags were made, which was convenient, but the pollution was also serious. "

  Effectively reduce the use of plastic bags, and 56.0% of the respondents suggested strengthening the supervision and implementation of the plastic limit order; 54.7% of the respondents believe that it is necessary to strengthen scientific research and innovation and develop and upgrade environmentally friendly plastic bags; 51.2% of the respondents suggested that it is mandatory to stipulate that certain places cannot be bought or sold; 51.0% of the respondents hope that the policy will block the details gap; 39.9% of the respondents hope to strengthen citizens’ environmental publicity and education and consciously reduce the use of plastic bags.

  Liu Junhai suggested changing the "plastic restriction order" into "plastic prohibition order". "It is forbidden to produce and use plastic bags, and plastic bags are replaced by paper bags, recyclable cloth bags and woven bags. Take green business models and lifestyles such as green production, green sales and green consumption as review, reflection and improvement ‘ Plastic limit order ’ The important guiding ideology. "

  "Industrial policies and regulatory policies and macro-control measures should be coordinated. Evaluation, supervision and administrative punishment must be kept up. Hearings and expert argumentation meetings are necessary, and representatives of consumers, environmental protection organizations, enterprises and experts are allowed to participate to discuss and find out the problems existing in implementation, the blind spots of system design, the shortcomings of policy implementation, and the reasons for regulatory failure. Take the right medicine, improve the system design, and ensure that a good policy system takes root. " Liu Junhai said, "We should combine environmental protection, resource protection, building a resource-saving society, an environment-friendly society, building a new socialist countryside and a farmer-friendly society to create a resource-friendly, environment-friendly and farmer-friendly market ecological environment shared by consumers, operators and farmers".

  Among the respondents, 33.9% live in first-tier cities, 40.4% in second-tier cities, 19.9% in third-and fourth-tier cities, 4.3% in small towns and counties, and 1.4% in rural areas. 16.1% were born after 90, 51.8% after 80, 24.2% after 70, 6.6% after 60 and 1.0% after 50. (Reporter Du Yuanchun)

Perspective of Shanghai Auto Show: Ecological Reconstruction of Intelligent Driving and L3 Landing Controversy

Domestic suppliers changed from supporting role to leading role at Shanghai Auto Show, and the end-to-end intelligent driving route was further deepened. World model and VLA technology became the key trends, and L3 became the core topic of the industry.

Although the craze of "all-people intelligent driving" has been cooled down by supervision, many companies have adjusted their expression to "assisted driving", but Chinese and foreign intelligent driving companies and some OEMs are still actively promoting the landing preparation of L3 or even L4.

Strictly speaking, L3 is regarded as a stress test of one’s own ability, which involves the competition of discourse power. China local intelligent driving company is facing a technological breakthrough, and L3 is imminent. Twenty-three supply chain enterprises, including Huawei, Horizon and Momenta, collectively entered the vehicle pavilion, and the exhibition area of automotive technology and supply chain increased to 100,000 square meters, accounting for nearly one third.

Zhijia has formed a global industrial chain with local startups in China as the core. International giants such as Bosch, Continental and Denso signed contracts with Horizon to build a smart driving scheme based on local chips. With the cooperation with Black Sesame Intelligence and Face-wall Intelligence, Intel laid out the ecology of China automobile industry.

Japanese cars represented by Toyota and Nissan, and brands such as GM and Audi fully embrace China Zhijia Company. Momenta reached cooperation with six major brands, and the "Intel Inside" model in the PC era reappeared in the field of smart cars. OEMs gradually accept the fact that suppliers improve their intelligent driving ability, and the traditional Tier 1 model has changed.

Most OEMs give up self-research and turn to external cooperation. On the technical route, "one-stage end-to-end" evolved into VLA architecture, and the discussion focused on the choice of expert system or generalist system and the technological leap from L3 to L4.

Momenta shows a large model of R6 flywheel based on reinforcement learning, which is planned to be launched in the second half of the year. Its assisted driving scheme covers the global market and supports cartographic technology. Robotaxi business is expected to enter the trial operation stage at the end of the year.

Xiaoma Zhixing released the seventh-generation Robotaxi system, which achieved 100% popularity of car-level hardware and reduced the cost by 70%. The system is suitable for many models and has all-weather operation ability. Peng Jun said that 2025 is the first year of mass production of Robotaxi.

Zhuoyu Technology has launched a new type of blind-supplementing LiDAR "knowing the week", which strengthens the combination of learning and world model to improve safety. Shang Tang Jueying shows the R-UniAD scheme of generative intelligent driving, emphasizing the synergy between reinforcement learning and world model.

Guangzhou Automobile Group cooperated with Didi to launch Robotaxi for pre-installation mass production, and planned to deliver it in mass production by the end of 2025. Huawei Gankun Zhizhi drives the ADS 4 high-end version to position the high-speed commercial L3 scheme, and canoe Zhihang promises to share the responsibility with the OEM.

Traditional Tier 1, such as Bosch, is deeply involved in the China market, providing full-stack solutions covering technologies such as urban assisted driving, brake-by-wire and steering. An Bofu builds the localization full-stack capability, and the software and hardware decoupling design supports flexible customization.

The Shanghai Auto Show also showcased emerging fields such as humanoid robots and flying cars. Citigroup predicts that the market size of humanoid robots will reach 7 trillion US dollars in 2050. AI technology promotes the transformation of automobile industry to multi-scene intelligent terminal.

Seven suspects in the incident of "selling birth certificates" in Xiangyang Jianqiao Hospital have been taken criminal compulsory measures.

※ A hospital in Xiangyang City, Hubei Province was recently reported as "colluding with intermediary gangs in many places to sell birth medical certificates", which aroused social concern.

The medical certificate of birth is the legal medical certificate stipulated in the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Maternal and Infant Health Care, and it is an important basis for the household registration authority to register births. The national health authorities have repeatedly stressed the need to strengthen the management of birth medical certificates. Under strict regulations, why is the birth certificate "lost" here? The reporter of "Xinhua Viewpoint" conducted an investigation.

The obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital involved has been closed for rectification.

On November 7, the reporter went to the hospital involved-Xiangyang Jianqiao Hospital in Xiangcheng District, Xiangyang City, Hubei Province. Walking into the hall, the reporter saw that the hospital was in normal operation, and a banner was hung in a conspicuous position. Look at the floor signs. In addition to the various departments of the hospital, there is also a month center in the building.

On November 6th, the abduction volunteer Shangguan Zhengyi (net name) posted a message on social platforms, saying that after more than a year of unannounced visits, he found that Ye Moumou, the president of Xiangyang Jianqiao Hospital, colluded with many intermediary gangs and used social platforms to publicly release birth certificate information, find customers, and sell birth medical certificates and vaccination books. According to Shangguan Zhengyi,These sold birth medical certificates are "true and verifiable", some for abducted children, some for surrogate children, and some for abandoned babies.

The reporter learned that the Xiangyang Jianqiao Hospital involved was formerly known as Xiangyang 102 Hospital. In 2011, the hospital was restructured into a private hospital, and it was renamed in 2017. In 2020, Xiangyang Jianqiao Hospital (East District) was officially opened. According to the brief introduction at the hospital gate, Xiangyang Jianqiao Hospital (East District) is a combination of medical care and nursing in Xiangyang, which provides integrated services such as pregnancy examination, prenatal diagnosis, nutrition guidance, psychological consultation, delivery, confinement, baby care and early education.

The reporter learned from the Fuyang Municipal Health and Wellness Committee on the 8 th that the obstetrics and gynecology department of Xiangyang Jianqiao Hospital has been closed for rectification, and the authority to issue birth medical certificates has been suspended. At the same time, a professional team has been arranged to consult and take care of the pregnant women involved in the hospital, and fully protect the health and safety of pregnant women in the hospital. Up to now, the reporter searched the hospitals involved on the Internet and found that the official website link could not be found.

A staff member of Xiangyang Health and Wellness Committee told the reporter,Xiangyang Jianqiao Hospital does have the qualification to issue birth medical certificates. The relevant departments will regularly check the issuance of birth medical certificates. However, maternity hospitalization involves many departments within the hospital, and the usual supervision is often aimed at a specific link. I didn’t expect the hospital to falsify the hospitalization records and other materials.

The reporter learned from an interview with the Xiangyang Municipal Health and Wellness Committee that,The disputes between doctors and patients in Xiangyang Jianqiao Hospital have been constant, and the frequency of punishment by health and health departments is relatively high, but it mainly focuses on medical services and medical safety, and does not involve the issue of issuing birth medical certificates.

The relevant person in charge of Xiangcheng Branch of Xiangyang City Public Security Bureau told reporters on the 8 th that since the evening of November 6, the public security department has been involved in the work, and has completed the investigation and control of relevant information and personnel control in stages. At present, the focus is on reporting clues one by one. The investigation, evidence collection and verification work is now in full swing. In order to improve the efficiency of investigation, the public security organs at the two levels in urban areas have set up a multi-police task force to fully promote related work. Seven suspects, including the hospital director and relevant staff, have been taken criminal compulsory measures.

Fill the loopholes and secure the "gateway" of issuing registration

As early as 2009, the health department issued a notice to further strengthen the standardized management of birth medical certificates, and the issuing institutions must implement the requirements of managing birth medical certificates and seals by special personnel respectively, and strictly issue the process. In December 2020, the national health department held a national conference on the management of birth medical certificates, emphasizing the need for strict issuance management and ensuring the implementation of the system. The relevant departments have repeatedly applied for strengthening education and training, and the alarm bells are always ringing.

"Selling the medical certificate of newborn birth can whitewash the identity of the abducted population." A grassroots policeman who has been engaged in "abduction" for a long time told reporters that when investigating human trafficking cases, DNA comparison results, birth medical certificates and household registration information constitute a basic evidence chain. If the abducted population has obtained a legal birth medical certificate, it can be legal. registered permanent residence; It is difficult to form sufficient evidence only by DNA comparison results, which will bring serious challenges to case investigation.

Pan Yu, a partner of Hubei Yingchu Law Firm, pointed out that the birth medical certificate is a legal medical certificate used to prove the identity of a baby, and it is a state organ certificate printed by relevant state departments and issued by hospitals. The behavior of the hospital director involved is suspected of forging and buying and selling the certificates of state organs.

In this regard, some respondents said that,We must fill the loopholes, improve the relevant management system, and firmly secure the "gateway" for the issuance and registration of birth medical certificates as soon as possible.

The police handling the case of Xiangcheng Branch of Xiangyang Public Security Bureau said that at present, the task force is taking reporting clues as the starting point to speed up the investigation. If new clues and new crimes are found in the process, they will never let go, and they will be thoroughly investigated and will never be tolerated.

Ministry of Ecology and Environment: In 2017, the air quality of 99 cities at prefecture level and above reached the standard.

  CCTV News:Today, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment released the Bulletin on Ecological Environment in China in 2017: In 2017, the quality of atmospheric and water environment in the whole country was further improved, the risk of soil environment was contained, the pattern of ecosystem was generally stable, and the people really felt the positive changes in the quality of ecological environment.

  The quality of air and water environment in China has been further improved.

  The communique shows that the blue sky defense war has achieved remarkable results. The average concentration of PM10 in 338 cities at prefecture level and above decreased by 22.7% compared with 2013.The average concentration of PM2.5 in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions decreased by 39.6%, 34.3% and 27.7% respectively compared with 2013.,The average concentration of PM2.5 in Beijing dropped from 89.5 μ g/m3 in 2013 to 58 μ g/m3.The air quality improvement objectives and key tasks of the Air Pollution Prevention and Control Action have been fully completed.

  Increase the intensity of water pollution control. The proportion of excellent surface water quality sections in China has been increasing.The proportion of I-III water bodies reached 67.9%, and the proportion of inferior V water bodies decreased to 8.3%.The water quality of the main stream of major rivers has improved steadily.The black and odorous water bodies in the built-up areas of 36 key cities have been basically eliminated.All the 490 environmental problems identified by drinking water sources in cities at the prefecture level and above in the Yangtze River Economic Belt have been cleaned up and rectified.

  Central environmental protection inspector solves a large number of environmental problems

  According to the 2017 Bulletin on Ecological Environment in China, in 2017, the national environmental supervision and law enforcement was continuously strengthened, and the third and fourth batches of inspectors from 15 provinces were completed, which achieved the full coverage of the first round of central environmental protection inspectors and promoted a large number of environmental problems to be solved.

  According to the communique, during the inspector’s presence, the central environmental protection inspector held more than 18,000 party and government leading cadres accountable.Accepted 135,000 environmental reports from the masses, and directly promoted the solution of more than 80,000 environmental problems around the masses.. Among them, special supervision was carried out on the ecological problems of Qilian Mountain National Nature Reserve in Gansu Province, and 11 cadres with leadership responsibilities, including 3 middle-ranking cadres, were seriously accountable. At the same time, strengthen the supervision of environmental protection, and interview 30 cities (counties, districts), departments and units in 2017; Regional restrictions were imposed on cities such as Linfen, Shanxi Province, and the atmospheric environmental problems in Langfang, Hebei Province were listed and supervised. Typical cases such as poor rectification of Nantong inspectors in Jiangsu Province and serious air pollution in Heilongjiang Province were carried out with mobile and acupoint-type special inspectors.

  In 2017, we will continue to carry out the annual activities for the implementation of the Environmental Protection Law, severely investigate and punish human interference with environmental monitoring, carry out the special action of supervision and inspection of the "Green Shield 2017" national nature reserve, investigate and deal with violations of laws and regulations, and steadily promote ecological protection.

  There are still 70% cities whose air quality is not up to standard.

  In 2017, the quality of the national atmospheric environment was further improved, but 70% of the cities still failed to meet the standards, and the overall situation was still not optimistic.

  According to the current air quality standards, that is, the average annual concentration of PM2.5 is not more than 35 μ g/m3, PM10 is not more than 70 μ g/m3, and other comprehensive indicators of six pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide,In 2017, among the 338 cities at prefecture level and above, 99 cities met the air quality standards, 239 cities failed to meet the standards, and 70.7% cities failed to meet the standards.In 2017, the average annual concentration of PM2.5 in 338 cities nationwide was 43 μ g/m3, and the average annual concentration of PM10 was 75 μ g/m3, which still exceeded the standard.

  According to the comprehensive air quality index evaluation, in 2017, among the 74 cities where the new standards were monitored and implemented in the first phase,The ten cities with relatively poor air quality are: Shijiazhuang, Handan, Xingtai, Baoding, Tangshan, Taiyuan, Xi ‘an, Hengshui, Zhengzhou and Jinan.The ten cities with relatively good air quality are Haikou, Lhasa, Zhoushan, Xiamen, Fuzhou, Huizhou, Shenzhen, Lishui, Guiyang and Zhuhai.

  Surface water generally improves the stability of coastal seawater quality.

  According to the 2017 Bulletin on Ecological Environment in China, in 2017, the surface water in the whole country improved, the quality of coastal seawater remained basically stable, and the water quality level was average.

  Among the major rivers in China,The water quality of the rivers in the northwest and southwest is excellent, the rivers in Zhejiang and Fujian, the Yangtze River and the Pearl River Basin are good, the Yellow River, Songhua River, Huaihe River and Liaohe River Basin are slightly polluted, and the Haihe River Basin is moderately polluted.Of all the 1617 water quality sections, the first-class water quality section increased by 0.1 percentage points over the previous year, while the fifth-class and inferior fifth-class water quality sections decreased by 1.1 percentage points and 0.7 percentage points respectively.

  Among the 112 important lakes (reservoirs), there are 70 with water quality of I-III, 22 with water quality of IV, 8 with water quality of V, and 12 with water quality worse than V. The main pollution indicators are total phosphorus, chemical oxygen demand and permanganate index.

  Water quality in coastal waters,The Bohai Sea is average, the Yellow Sea is good, the water quality in the East China Sea is poor and the water quality in the South China Sea is average.In the important estuaries and bays, compared with 2016, the water quality of Jiaozhou Bay and Minjiang Estuary has improved, the water quality of Yellow River Estuary, Pearl River Estuary and Beibu Gulf has deteriorated, and the water quality of other estuaries and bays has remained basically stable.

Making seafood fresher and cultivating seafood land is the future development trend of aquaculture.

CCTV News:Speaking of seafood, many people will think that it is a specialty of coastal cities. In fact, seafood farming has been started in some inland cities in China. This land farming method shortens the time for seafood to swim to the table and makes seafood fresher.

In the past few days, about 500 Jin of Penaeus vannamei has come out of an aquaculture base in Dongxihu District of Wuhan every day. The person in charge told the reporter that this base was put into operation this year, with more than 300 shrimp ponds with an annual output of 1 million Jin. It is understood that the shrimps in the base are mainly ordered from Hainan, Guangdong and other coastal areas, and the bittern water comes from Shandong, which is desalinated in proportion to control the water temperature and environment. The "waste heat" provided by nearby power plants can realize four-season production.

Also listed in this year, Wuhan produces seafood and groupers. These indoor cultured groupers live in the prepared seawater, and their quality is more stable and safer. Zhang Meilian, who has been engaged in seafood for many years, sold grouper produced in Wuhan for the first time this year, and the quality and price satisfied her.

       The variety of cultured seafood in Wuhan is increasing, and the output is also increasing. The eel fry of this aquaculture enterprise are first cultivated in seawater, and after arriving in Wuhan, they are first cultivated in brackish water simulating seawater, and then gradually transferred to fresh water environment. Last year, the enterprise began to breed eels on a large scale, and the products have been sold to coastal areas such as Guangdong and Fujian. Because it is welcomed by the market, it has also expanded its production capacity this year.

Building factories and adding facilities to cultivate seafood on land and entering the northwest region

Not only in Wuhan, but also in recent years, with the development of protected fisheries, seafood farming areas are also advancing inland farther away from the sea. Let’s go to Gansu and Inner Mongolia to have a look.

During this period, a breeding cooperative in Zhangye, Gansu Province ushered in a bumper harvest of Penaeus vannamei. In January this year, the cooperative put in the first batch of shrimp seedlings, simulated the marine culture environment with circulating water, controlled the water temperature and salt content, and carried out industrial culture.

Xu Yunfeng, General Manager of a Breeding Cooperative in Zhangye City, Gansu Province:We have put in three batches of shrimps one after another, with a total investment of 2 million shrimps. So far, the first batch of shrimps have all been sold, and now the third batch of shrimps is ready to start selling.

Xu Yunfeng said that the cooperative’s Penaeus vannamei can produce 6 crops a year, and the output of each crop can reach 20,000 Jin. Seeing the good market response, the cooperative decided to further expand the production scale of white shrimp, and the second phase of the project has started construction.

A batch of Penaeus vannamei will also be listed in an aquaculture base in Erdos, Inner Mongolia in the near future. It is worth mentioning that the area where this base is located is a saline-alkali land with heavy soil salt accumulation and can not be cultivated. In order to turn waste into treasure in saline-alkali land, technicians built greenhouses according to local conditions, adjusted the water consumption of shrimp seedlings, and overcame the adverse effects of high salinity and cold on aquaculture.

The first crop of white prawns has been sold this year, and the response is good. Three local aquaculture enterprises plan to breed 60 million white prawns this year. Aquatic experts believe that although the types of seafood cultivated on land are not rich enough at present, it will be the development trend of protected fisheries in the future.

Liao Yongyan, Professor, College of Oceanography, Beibu Gulf University:Terrestrial cultivation of seafood is a major development direction of aquaculture in the future. Only when agriculture is industrialized can the benefits of farming be improved and the controllability of farming be improved.

Interview with Hu Mei | It took 18 years, and this masterpiece was filmed!


Special feature of 1905 film network "I never thought it could be made!"


On the occasion of the release, the director shared the creative journey of the past 18 years with the outside world again and again. Hu Mei has always had a special affection for A Dream of Red Mansions, from the time he read this literary masterpiece at the age of 9 to the time it became a nutrient in his life.


"A Dream of Red Mansions" has gone through a long road of 18 years from planning to shooting to release.


Eighteen years is enough to make the world change dramatically, and it is enough to make this film almost difficult to produce. Under the rolling tide of the times, such as the break of funds and the change of audience’s aesthetic standards, A Dream of Red Mansions encountered too many "accidents". In the "Dialogue" column of the 1905 film network, we asked Hu Mei if she had thought about giving up this project. I didn’t expect to attract her feelings, not to mention giving up. "I never thought this film could be made!" .



As early as 2006, Hu Mei began to plan to film A Dream of Red Mansions. In the past few years, 50 or 60 scripts have been written, and tens of thousands of actors have been interviewed. The film volume has been reduced from three to two, and then the essence has been completely concentrated in 116 minutes.


Hu Mei said that the length of A Dream of Red Mansions has been adjusted many times, and the narrative order of the film has also changed compared with the previous one. The theme revolves around conspiracy and love, which is a version of "A Dream of Red Mansions". With the age of classics getting farther and farther away from contemporary people’s lives, traditional culture gradually disappears. I hope it can draw people’s attention to China’s classical literature.


After the film was finished, Hu Mei felt that his work was finished. As for whether it can really reach the audience, she said that the market is unpredictable. After the film was released, it was left to everyone to evaluate.



01

Many people ask Hu Mei, "Why do you have to shoot this difficult Dream of Red Mansions?"


Hu Mei was only 9 years old when she first read A Dream of Red Mansions. At that time when there was no TV set, reading comic books was one of her few pastimes. Mother has a box of books under the bed, and Hu Mei goes to "peek" when she has nothing to do. Masterpieces such as A Tale of Two Cities and A Dream of Red Mansions broke into her world during that time.


For Hu Mei at that time, Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai were all children of their own age, playing with butterflies and having a little temper. The bits and pieces in the Grand View Garden left a deep impression on her as a girl. Whenever something unpleasant happens, she will immediately turn out this book to read.



In the blink of an eye, when asked by the outside world why she wanted to shoot A Dream of Red Mansions, Hu Mei always remembered those distant memories. "Although it didn’t have a direct effect on making this film, it planted a dream seed." When I grow up, this masterpiece is still around Hu Mei. She regards it as a decompression companion, and every time she reads it, she will have new feelings.


"I think I am really too old. How many changes have taken place in the world now." Hu Mei sighed.



The new era is changing with each passing day. All kinds of entertainment have long been popular, and going to the cinema to watch movies has become a popular way to decompress. As a source of happiness for people anytime and anywhere, short videos strongly affect the aesthetic habits of the audience. Nowadays, people prefer fast-paced and exciting visual communication.


The change of the audience’s viewing habits also drives the film creators to make certain adjustments.


Fifty or sixty manuscripts were written for the script of A Dream of Red Mansions. Originally, three films were planned, but in the end, the whole film was condensed to less than two hours. Hu Mei did a lot of subtraction for the film, and many plots were cut out reluctantly, just to concentrate the essence of the text in as short a time as possible.



When getting closer and closer to filming, Hu Mei also asked himself, why do you want to make A Dream of Red Mansions into a movie? "It is important that A Dream of Red Mansions is a pearl that condenses Chinese culture, and this pearl should be passed on to the younger generation." .


In Hu Mei’s eyes, this film is an innovative "red chamber of youth". She used "a good marriage of gold and jade" instead of "the alliance of wood and stone" as part of the title of the film, which is exactly the reverse technique. Good marriage is wrong and should be criticized. It was the marriage of gold and jade recognized by the feudal family that caused the love tragedy of Bao Daichai. "If you see the end, you will feel that the marriage of gold and jade is very relevant." Hu Mei explained.

The youthful "A Dream of Red Mansions" is on the screen, and the public will witness the birth of a group of young actors. Playing Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai respectively, and both stand out from the crowd.


In order to find the actors who fit in with A Dream of Red Mansions, Hu Mei and his team traveled to Shanghai, Suzhou and Hangzhou to interview a large number of new people, hoping to finally find "blank paper" without any performance experience. Hu Mei said frankly that he had never considered using other famous new generation actors to play the leading role.



"A Dream of Red Mansions" was launched in 2018, when Guan Xiaotong was 21 years old. Hu Mei called her a young artist with mature and delicate performances, and considered her to play Lin Daiyu or Xue Baochai. However, because Guan Xiaotong is taller, it is not particularly appropriate to Lin Daiyu described in the original book. Compared with the new couple, Hu Mei thinks the role of "Yuan Chun" is more suitable for her.


"Anyway, listen to the director, just let me participate." Guan Xiaotong is more concerned about joining the film than whether he can play Lin Daiyu. Hu Mei praised the young actor, who can interpret various roles and has the shaping power of one person in thousands of ways.



Bian Cheng, Zhang Miao Yihe, Huang Jia Rong and other new actors all entered the set after long-term training.


The average age of the children from the auditions is only 14. The crew gathered them all together and trained them according to the ratio of 1:3 for each role. During nearly nine months of training, they not only have to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, literature, philosophy and history, manners and postures, but also learn how to perform from breathing methods and learn intangible culture such as traditional Shuang Mianxiu.


"It’s really hard." Hu Mei recalled that when reporting the performance, almost all the people present cried. I didn’t expect the training to change them so much. Bao Dai studied, Bao Chai fluttered butterflies, Dai Yu buried flowers … A group of new actors joined hands to offer a brand-new interpretation of famous scenes.



In addition to the actors, the scenery and costumes in the film all show the characteristics of "the red chamber of youth".


Hu Mei introduced that the crew invited a large number of young designers to create modern aesthetic feeling on the basis of traditional and classical aesthetics, and the original concept map was too illusory and even had avant-garde sci-fi elements. The movie set has been adjusted from the original. As for people’s costumes, from colors and styles to materials, embroidery and wearing methods, they also resonate with young people as much as possible.

"When you have a certain social experience, you will find that it seems not enough to just tell the stories around you. Chinese culture is profound and profound, and wisdom has been passed down for thousands of years. As I grow older, I prefer to return to traditional culture more and more." From Yongzheng Dynasty to Confucius, and then to A Dream of Red Mansions, Hu Mei has been exploring the film and television of traditional culture.


The creation of A Dream of Red Mansions has gone through 18 years, during which it encountered numerous difficulties. Some of them were predicted by Hu Mei when he made this film. Such as the difficulty of adaptation. The "accidents" such as the break of funds greatly surprised her.



Looking back on the past days, Hu Mei admitted that he never thought of giving up, and never thought that the film could be made. "I didn’t deliberately have to go for these eighteen years. During these eighteen years, I was also making other films." .


Scripts are written one by one, shots are shot one by one, and everything is done step by step. When Hu Mei thought that the film could not be made for many times, she always had a chance to tell her that it seemed possible. At the moment when the film was finished, she felt that her work had been finished.



Born out of Chinese classics, whether it is reduction and innovation, or compared with its previous works, A Dream of Red Mansions is bound to attract much attention. In the director’s view, every film has its own soul.


Now the film has been put into the market and accepted by the audience. When talking about whether he was worried about the box office, Hu Mei bluntly said that it was useless to worry. Creators are like athletes. It is unpredictable whether they can stand on the podium after the competition is completed.


But she still hopes that this film can be seen by more people, and everyone can continue to imagine the "Red Chamber World".
