Take-away lunch boxes that are difficult to recycle: biodegradable and recyclable, no one cares.

  At 1: 00 pm on September 1, there were still food delivery staff wearing various overalls in the stairwell of Jinlong Building "flying" in the corridor. A delivery man took six takeaways in one hand and waited by the elevator. He told reporters that his site delivered about 800 takeaways a day on average, and if it was raining and other bad weather, the delivery volume exceeded 1,000.

  Correspondingly-a large number of fast food boxes are thrown into the garbage every day. The reporter saw in the unsealed garbage bin that the takeaway boxes were scattered and piled up, and some had more than half a bowl of soup left. "On weekdays, an average of 17 or 8 cars of garbage are collected a day, and each car is about 30 bags of takeaway garbage."

  According to the statistics of Ai Media Consulting, a third-party research institution, 256 million takeaways were produced every day in 2016, including at least 256 million lunch boxes and plastic bags, which will take at least 470 years to degrade after use. Besides incineration, according to statistics, about 8 million tons of plastics are dumped into the sea every year.

  "Degradable" lunch boxes will also pollute the environment.

  "1000 in 55 yuan, wholesale degradable lunch boxes." "Biodegradable plastics are non-toxic and harmless." In lunch box wholesale markets and online stores, such word descriptions can be seen everywhere.

  On Taobao, the reporter saw some disposable foamed lunch boxes with the words "degradation" clearly written on them. A lunch box supplier who settled in Tmall told reporters that their sales volume is calculated by trucks, and they sell an average of 3,000 trucks a year, with 200 boxes in each car and 300 sets in each box, which can sell 180 million sets a year.

  Because they are "degradable", most people think that these plastics can eventually be degraded in the environment, which is green and harmless, and there is little psychological burden when they are discarded. But in fact? Experts say that biodegradable plastics will not degrade in the natural environment, but will cause lasting pollution to the environment, especially the marine environment. Therefore, the widespread use of products labeled as "biodegradable" will not significantly reduce the amount of garbage entering the ocean, or reduce the physical and chemical risks brought by plastics to the marine environment.

  "Many things called biodegradable plastics do meet the standards set by some international institutions, but this only means that they can degrade at certain high temperatures." Han Shuo, a master of materials science at Zhengzhou University and editor of Materials+WeChat in WeChat official account, said. The most commonly used plastics, such as polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride, are not biodegradable in the ocean. It is almost impossible to achieve the specific conditions required for the degradation of some biodegradable polymers in the marine environment. For example, these polymers need to be treated at a high temperature above 50℃ for a long time before they decompose in industrial compost. There are a few very special plastics that do miraculously degrade, such as oxygen-degradable plastics, but these plastics have few uses and are more expensive.

  In particular, Han Shuo pointed out that some surveys found that the decomposition of oxygen-degradable plastics in the marine environment is quite slow, which may take as long as five years. Moreover, the broken oxygen-degraded plastics continue to pose a threat to the marine ecosystem, and the resulting microplastics particles will be absorbed by marine organisms, resulting in the transport of harmful microorganisms, pathogens and algae.

  In response to the quality monitoring of lunch boxes, the reporter learned that there is no standard for the specific ingredients of takeaway lunch boxes at present, and the personnel of relevant departments said that it is "non-toxic and harmless, as long as it meets food safety standards".

  Hungry? The customer service staff of the takeaway platform told the reporter that the packaging of the takeaway platform is currently the responsibility of the merchants themselves, and the platform has no special requirements for the material and quality of the lunch boxes of the settled merchants. "Lunch boxes are sold by merchants to customers, and they are all charged and provided by the merchants themselves."

  A Meituan takeaway rider said that the platform has no requirements for the environmental protection of lunch boxes, but "it must not contain harmful substances". For packaging, the platform requires that there should be no leakage, nor can it directly contain food in plastic bags.

  "Recyclable" lunch boxes are mostly reduced to domestic garbage.

  At present, there are mainly four kinds of take-away lunch boxes on the market, namely PS (polystyrene) packaging boxes, PP (polypropylene) packaging boxes, paper packaging boxes and degradable lunch boxes made of natural straw pulp or corn starch.

  The reporter visited more than 10 merchants in the city and found that all the lunch boxes used by take-away merchants were purchased by online and wholesalers, and the material was mainly PP5 (polypropylene). The lunch box provided by a braised chicken rice merchant shows that the service temperature is "20℃-100℃", and the words "PP5", "QS" and "microwave oven permission" are also marked on it, and some merchants’ lunch boxes are also marked with the triangle symbol of "recyclable".

  The owner of a Lamian Noodles in Lanzhou said that he didn’t know whether the lunch box was environmentally friendly, but he could guarantee that it was non-toxic and harmless. "This kind of lunch box is basically used for take-out in the market now, but to be on the safe side, we still remind customers to use it once and do not heat it." According to the boss, lunch boxes are purchased from the wholesale market, the price is one in 0.5 yuan, and the daily usage is about 50.

  On take-away platforms such as Hungry, Meituan, etc., consumers will display the cost of lunch boxes when ordering food. Generally, according to the ordering quantity and usage, a lunch box is 1 yuan.

  It is understood that all qualified PP5 lunch boxes have "QS" and number on them, which is equivalent to the product ID card and is also issued by the AQSIQ. This kind of product has undergone strict quality audit, that is, its raw materials, production environment and production technology, including the health requirements of personnel, are strictly regulated.

  Marked with a triangle symbol, indicating that this material can be recycled. However, the reporter interviewed relevant departments and learned that at present, the recycling amount of plastic products in take-away garbage is extremely low, and most of the take-away garbage is incinerated. Why do lunch boxes marked recyclable end up as domestic garbage disposal?

  Sheng Min, Secretary-General of China Renewable Resources Recycling Association Recycling Plastics Branch, said that these materials themselves do have recycling value, but the recycling price is not high. Pure polypropylene (PP) transparent lunch box, which is currently used as the mainstream lunch box, is one of the higher quality plastic materials, and the purchase price is only two or three yuan per kilogram. Moreover, after being used as take-away tableware, it is basically impossible to enter the recycling chain.

  "From the recycling situation, no matter whether it is a scavenger or a recycling enterprise, he usually only chooses relatively simple types such as coke bottles at the front end. Such a dirty lunch box containing oil stains cannot be recycled." Han Shuo said that most of the wastes did not enter the recycling channel for reuse, but were directly incinerated. If some lunch boxes cut corners in order to simplify the process in the production stage, it will cause more pollution to the incineration treatment, so that the degradable materials themselves are actually "non-degradable".

  It is too expensive to separate food from plastic tableware.

  In the interview, the reporter also found that almost no one separated the remaining food in the box from disposable plastic tableware. Many discarded plastic lunch boxes contain leftover food.

  Should waste food in takeaway garbage be separated from disposable plastic products? The staff of relevant departments said that the cost of secondary sorting and cleaning is high, and the value of recycling plastic products is limited. Therefore, most of them will not be sorted twice.

  This statement was recognized by Fang Peng, Ph.D. in Materials Science of Northwestern Polytechnical University and a partner of Beijing Fanrui Technology Co., Ltd. He explained that once food is mixed with disposable plastic products, the cost of sorting is too high. Judging from the current situation, most of these disposable plastic tableware can not be recycled after separation.

  At present, paper lunch boxes are the most environmentally friendly. In developed countries, paper tableware is often used for takeout. There are also some foreign fast food and baking businesses in China who choose paper take-away packaging.

  Fang Peng said that the raw materials of paper tableware are mostly wood pulp, and then they are pressed and shaped by stamping tools, and then chemical additives are coated on the surface to prevent water seepage. At the same time, paper tableware is also harmless. In some high-end takeaway shops, they usually use this kind of tableware to package food, which looks exquisite. "But the disadvantages of paper tableware are also obvious. First, the price is high, and second, it is impossible to package soup."

  There is also a real degradable tableware, which is mainly made of plastic, but with photosensitizer or starch added. Under the action of microbial enzymes in the natural environment, this tableware will be decomposed into carbon dioxide and water, which will not cause harmful effects on the environment. "The disadvantage is also the high price. If there is no special requirement, the merchants will not take the initiative to use it." Fang Peng said.

  So how much pressure will the plastic lunch boxes and packaging entering the garbage disposal system bring to the environment? Fang Peng introduced that for plastic waste, incineration and landfill are still two mainstream ways.

  It is incumbent on take-away enterprises to fulfill their environmental responsibility.

  According to the information released by official website, the daily order volume of Meituan is 12 million, with a cumulative user of 200 million. According to the China takeaway big data released by NGO Sushe citing Hungry, the market size of China has reached 600 million. In 2016, the frequency of online take-away users’ consumption was as high as 63.3%. According to the statistics of this non-profit organization, at least 400 million takeaways "fly in the streets of China" every week, resulting in at least 400 million disposable packaging boxes and 400 million plastic bags, and 400 million disposable tableware discarded.

  A lunch box manufacturer said that although the lunch boxes they produced were food grade, the state did not put forward the "degradable" standards or requirements for lunch box manufacturers. If we use 14.6 billion lunch boxes a year now, and each lunch box will increase the cost of 0.5 yuan, the take-away industry will spend 7.3 billion yuan more. Who will pay for these expenses?

  "The take-away industry has changed from the Three Kingdoms to two leading companies. At this time, we should consider garbage disposal and environmental protection issues." Someone suggested this.

  In Fang Peng’s view, if the policy level can guide and encourage enterprises that are willing to bear environmental costs not to suffer losses, they can use economic leverage to incite the enthusiasm of enterprises through the compensation mechanism, so that maintaining the environment becomes a rational choice for all parties. "Takeaway enterprises should bear the responsibility of recycling plastic lunch boxes and allocate special funds to lunch box recycling or processing enterprises according to sales." Considering the characteristics of Chinese catering, PP lunch boxes can only be used in many cases. "In terms of technology and policy, support PP lunch box manufacturers to develop degradable PP lunch box production technology, sign a recycling plan for PP lunch boxes with take-away merchants and take-away platforms, and advocate diners who use PP lunch boxes to consciously clean their lunch boxes and put them in designated recycling places to facilitate later recycling."

  In June this year, Meituan Takeaway, China Cuisine Association and China Environmental Protection Foundation jointly launched the Green Takeaway Industry Convention (Green Ten Articles) with a number of food and beverage take-away brands, including the content of "promoting the use of green tableware", and called on the scientific research community to provide intellectual support for the industry and develop degradable and environmentally friendly lunch boxes with high quality and low price. However, at present, the implementation of the "Green Ten" can only rely on industry self-discipline, and its effect needs time to test.

  ● Reporter’s Notes

  How to crack the garbage pollution of take-away packaging

  In many developed countries, the food take-away industry is very prosperous. Why are there no serious take-away garbage pollution in these countries?

  The reason is that in these countries, paper and degradable lunch boxes are the mainstream of take-away packaging. In the domestic catering industry, for the sake of cost, most merchants choose cheap plastic lunch boxes and abandon green lunch boxes such as degradable cartons. However, the manufacturing cost of plastic lunch boxes is low, but the environmental cost is very high.

  If you only hit the board on the ordering platform, it may be biased. The defects of relevant industrial policies and the imperfect garbage recycling system have greatly aggravated the seriousness of this problem. Just as Fang Peng said, to solve the pollution problem of take-away plastic waste, it is necessary to clearly define the responsibilities of individual consumers, take-away enterprises, garbage disposal enterprises and the government, and all parties should work together.

  The state should greatly increase the use cost of plastic lunch boxes and reduce the use cost of green lunch boxes such as paper boxes through tax leverage, so as to curb the source of take-away packaging pollution.

  In addition, the pollution of take-away packaging has also exposed the backwardness of the current garbage recycling system. At present, our garbage disposal is still in an extensive stage, and there is no effective classified recycling system. Take-away packaging, as a recyclable resource, has not been effectively recycled, resulting in annoying garbage. It not only causes pollution, but also brings waste.

  The take-away ordering platform needs to actively fulfill its environmental responsibilities and cannot turn a blind eye to the problem of increasing garbage. At the same time, it also needs an effective public governance mechanism under the leadership of the government for take-away packaging and garbage recycling. Only by working together can we find a way to crack the "garbage siege" of take-away packaging.

Happy life in the farmer’s market

  Editor’s Note: The farmers’ market is the "vegetable basket" of thousands of households, which is the responsibility of the people’s livelihood, the government and the necessity of public services. The Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government attach great importance to the transformation and upgrading of farmers’ markets as an important unit to promote the high-quality development of our city and build a model city of common prosperity. This year, the city once again incorporated the transformation and upgrading of the farmer’s market into the annual livelihood practical project, and intensified efforts to build a farmer’s market that is more people-friendly, convenient, beneficial and beneficial to the people. This issue of "Politics for the People" focuses on the transformation and upgrading of the farmers’ market and pays attention to the happy life in the "vegetable basket", so please pay attention.

  Life is in the "vegetable basket". The quality of the "food basket" is directly related to the quality of citizens’ life and the taste of the city.

  Since last year, Jiaxing has started a new round of transformation and upgrading of farmers’ markets. This year, the transformation and upgrading of farmers’ markets will once again be included in the municipal government’s livelihood projects, and 74 urban and rural farmers’ markets will be transformed and upgraded to achieve full coverage of the city.

  After the transformation and upgrading of the farmers’ market, how is the public’s "vegetable basket"? What kind of happy new experience is it to visit the farmer’s market? In the past few days, reporters have conducted in-depth interviews.

  The characteristic vegetable market is full of fireworks.

  In September, the favorite bite of Jiaxing people-Nanhuling went on the market. After Portunus, hairy crabs also climbed the table of Jiaxing people. People who are busy pasting autumn fat are also used to adding some beef and mutton to the vegetable basket. These foods are undoubtedly on the C position of the food market booth.

  Just as there are popular dishes in every season, there are some good "conspicuous bags" in every market. Their prominence lies in the long queues of customers, the comfort of closing the stalls early, and even the posture of opening the cash box to count banknotes.

  There are three "conspicuous bags" at the Happy Li Farmers’ Market in Yangliuwan, the urban area. The "Dongdong Beef and Mutton" booth is one of them.

  Xiao Yumei, the stall owner, said, "I can sell a cow in one day on weekends." In addition to retail, she also supplies wholesale for several other food markets. "We have slaughterhouses, which can guarantee that the beef and mutton are fresh and cheap every day, so old customers will come to buy them." Xiao Yumei said confidently, for example, on the day of the interview, the beef tenderloin of the stall was sold at 50 yuan per catty in 46 yuan, and other food markets had to sell it.

  With the pursuit of old customers, Xiao Yumei’s business is handy. At 11 o’clock in the morning, she has already collected the stalls and counted out the hundred-dollar bills from the box where the money was collected. "There are more than 7,000 pieces here, and there should be more than 10,000 pieces paid by scanning the code."

  Xiao Yumei has been engaged in beef and mutton business for more than 30 years, and has been in Yangliuwan farmers’ market for nearly 17 years. Four years ago, the transformation of Yangliuwan Xingfuli Farmers’ Market was completed. She was optimistic about the business here, invested money when bidding, and got the top position near the Xiaojing rest area at the front end of the East Gate Corridor.

  "In the first two years of transformation, many people knew about the farmers’ market in Yangliuwan Happiness, and they all came here to punch in, which brought me a wave of business. I am right in Yangliuwan, and I am prosperous here. " Xiao Yumei is quite satisfied.

  Another "conspicuous bag" of the farmers’ market in Happiness in Yangliuwan is "Old Wang Bai Chicken". The stall owner, Lao Wang, can cook more than 20 white-cut chickens a day. One white-cut chicken is about 5 kg, and it sells for one kg in 32 yuan. It was sold out before 10 am on the day of the interview. "If it is a holiday, it will be sold out at 8 o’clock in the morning." Lao Wang is a little proud.

  Because it sells cooked food, the operating rooms of "Old Wang Bai Chicken" are all separated by glass, and the air conditioner inside shows 25 degrees Celsius, so "three defenses" and "three whites" are in place. "I’ve been making boiled chicken for 14 years, and it tastes authentic in Jiaxing." Lao Wang said, "After the market is transformed, everything is comfortable, and doing business here is always accented."

  After the completion of the transformation, aquatic products have become the characteristics of the farmers’ market in Yangliuwan Happiness. The most conspicuous position in the market is the aquatic product booth at the east gate. At eleven o’clock in the morning, there were only four "disabled soldiers" left in a big red basin. In addition to setting up a stall here, the stall owner also supplies other food markets, and it is also fresh and cheap. When she was about to interview, she shook her hand at the reporter: "Wait for me, I’ll go to the bathroom first, and I haven’t stopped all morning."

  Waiting for her gap, the reporter went to see the passenger flow registration system in the farmer’s market. The system showed that by 11 am, the passenger flow in the farmer’s market had exceeded 5,000. Wang Huiliang, head of the farmer’s market, said: "It is normal to have more than 5,000 people on weekends, and we usually have more than 4,000 people."

  The market is rejuvenating and people’s livelihood is seeing feelings.

  Every farmer’s market has one kind or another "conspicuous bag". For example, the pork stalls and vegetable self-produced and self-sold stalls in xincheng town Farmers’ Market in Xiuzhou District have driven the annual operating income of the market to exceed 100 million yuan; The seafood stalls at the New Farmers’ Market in the Economic Development Zone of Jiaxing are hot for holiday king crabs, and the fish platter makes people shine. An egg stall in the neighborhood center of Xingfuli, Lingtang Road, sells more than 20 varieties of eggs …

  These online celebrity products and online celebrity stalls with management ideas, quality awareness and persistence in sustainable management can continuously attract customers and brand the farmers’ market with fresh, cheap and distinctive dishes.

  During the transformation and upgrading of this round of farmers’ market, market operators invariably choose to support these excellent booths and enlarge the booth area so that they can display them. Yangliuwan Xingfuli Farmers’ Market has been reduced from more than 300 booths before the transformation to 89 booths at present, and it has been fully rented. Changxin farmers’ market also takes the route of "big stalls", which makes the whole market more stretched and transparent.

  The original intention of the transformation and upgrading of the farmers’ market is to make people feel more at ease and comfortable in buying food. In the final analysis, it is necessary to implement the daily operation and benign service of business households and make people fall in love with buying food. After the transformation is completed, the market business will be better than before, and the transformation will be successful, and the hot and exquisite fireworks will be there.

  This exquisite fireworks gas comes from the high standard, high starting point and high level of this round of farmer’s market transformation and upgrading. Different from the previous minor repairs, this round of farmer’s market transformation and upgrading has greatly improved the overall software and hardware facilities in accordance with the requirements of star-rated farmer’s market by means of reloading and reappearing.

  Jiang Xiongwei, director of the Market Management Department of Jiaxing Municipal Market Supervision Bureau, told the reporter that just taking the renovation and upgrading of 29 farmers’ markets at the city level this year as an example, the total capital investment of all parties has exceeded 600 million yuan. "Market operators also have a strong willingness to transform, and they are conceptually aware of the sense of crisis that they will be eliminated if they do not change."

  After this round of transformation and upgrading, the face of the farmer’s market has changed, which is obvious to all and well-known. "The food market is like a supermarket" has become a unified impression and unanimous evaluation of Jiaxing citizens on the farmers’ market around them.

  Up to now, the average progress of the renovation and upgrading project of farmers’ markets in the city is 73.5%, including 52 in-situ renovation, 16 relocation and reconstruction, and 6 transformation and production conversion. A new batch of farmers’ markets in Happiness will be reloaded soon.

  Buying food+full of happiness in life

  Blowing air conditioners and selling vegetables, Xia Mingrong, a farmer’s market operator in Yangliuwan Happiness, said: "The electricity bill is a small sum of money, and it is well spent. When the environment is good, guests are willing to buy food and they are comfortable. "

  After the renovation and upgrading of this round of farmers’ market is completed, people will find that the familiar market not only has a beautiful environment and complete facilities, but also has many "small fortunes" that are eye-catching and happy.

  For example, it is particularly convenient to drive to Changxin Farmers Market to buy food. The market has been upgraded to the standard of five-star farmers’ market, including not only ground parking lots, but also underground parking lots, and the underground parking lots have elevators directly to the market.

  In addition to excellent seafood and aquatic products, this market also has many kinds of pork, including high-end brand pork and cheap pork. There is even a flower booth introduced here, which allows you to buy food, meat, fruit and flowers at one time, which is of high quality.

  The reporter noted that paying attention to the renovation and improvement of barrier-free facilities is a warm point in the renovation and upgrading of this round of farmers’ markets and has become a window of urban civilization.

  In addition, small animals are also concerned. A number of farmers’ markets visited by the reporter have posted "no pets allowed" tips. On the day of the interview, the reporter met a couple at the Happy Li Farmers’ Market in Yangliuwan, and tied the dog to the post outside the security room of the market, so that the security brother could help him take care of it.

  When market stalls are operated through electronic display screens, electronic price tags and code scanning payment become "standard", and some markets begin to think about how to do customer interaction well.

  For example, on the entrance screen of Xiuxin Farmers’ Market in Xiuzhou District, in addition to scrolling the pesticide residue detection results of various vegetables, the information of special dishes of the day is also published on the screen, which is convenient for customers to follow the map.

  Insert wisdom wings to make it easier to buy food. In terms of the construction of smart farmers’ markets, Haining is at the forefront of the city.

  In February last year, Haining proposed to vigorously promote qualified and qualified farmers’ markets to implement "changing agriculture into supermarkets", explore the construction of a new urban farmers’ market with "new retail and smart farmers’ markets", realize the functions of "smart farmers+experiential canteen area+brand convenience store +App online convenient shopping", accelerate the application of smart management system in farmers’ markets, and build a management platform for background software (transaction database) of farmers’ markets. The digital system of "vegetable basket" has basically been established.

  In the increasingly trendy farmers’ market, minor repairs and small supplements have made the public feel the "ancient warmth". Mending, repairing shoes, repairing umbrellas, matching keys, sharpening knives, sticking films on mobile phones, and cleaning range hoods … these convenience services that ordinary people need are still reserved in the farmers’ market. A special area for small repairs was set up on the second floor of Changxin Farmers’ Market. The area of Xingfuli Farmers’ Market in Lingtang Road is not large, but it still retains a booth for making and changing clothes, and a convenient booth for matching keys in a conspicuous position.

  "Minor repairs are needed by the people; Needle thread brain is also a business. " Jiang Xiongwei said, "We advocate that the farmer’s market should keep small repairs and make up booths, which is also the meaning of improving the’ quarter-hour convenience service circle’."

  The "small fortunate" of the farmer’s market is also reflected in the integration of community services and cultural facilities into the farmer’s market and the completion of the "food market+"article, which has become a warm color for the transformation and upgrading of the farmer’s market this round. It is nothing new to walk the baby upstairs in the market, to participate in community cultural and sports activities in the market and even to have tea, walk and chat in the garden upstairs in the market.

  When the farmer’s market is becoming more and more fashionable, diversified and capable, the action of buying food is used to connect the convenience life circle in series, which reflects the "happy life" in the farmer’s market and also embodies the governance wisdom of "politics for the people".

Female college students peel crayfish part-time: charge 15% service fee, and peel 12 Jin a night when they are busy.

  Specially peeling crayfish for guests, with a service charge of 15%. Recently, a restaurant in Huangpu District of Shanghai launched such a "shrimp peeling service on behalf of customers" and hired two part-time "shrimp peelers".

  On May 23, 2018, He Nanxin peeled crayfish in the restaurant. The Paper reporter He Yingwei Intern Zhu Yushe

  Soon after the service was launched, it quickly sparked a heated discussion on the Internet. Some netizens questioned the store’s "making gimmicks" and worried about the sanitary condition of peeling shrimp. A reporter from The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) visited and learned that two part-time "shrimpers" in this restaurant are college students. When peeling shrimps, they will wear disposable gloves and white masks, and they can sit opposite the customers to peel shrimps, or they can take them to the kitchen and serve them to the customers’ table. When business is good, a "shrimp peeler" can earn 300 yuan a night.

  What are the food safety standards for crayfish shops to launch on-site lobster peeling service? In this regard, Zhang Lei, deputy director of the Food and Beverage Supervision Department of Shanghai Food and Drug Administration, told The Paper that peeling crayfish on the spot is similar to cutting the skin of roast duck on the spot. Shrimp peelers should hold health certificates, wash their hands and disinfect before operation (if tools are used, they should also be cleaned and disinfected), and the peeled shrimps should be eaten in time.

  The store told The Paper that all employees in the store have health certificates, and two part-time shrimpers have also obtained health certificates, one of whom is valid from October 2017 to October 2018, and has produced an electronic certificate.

  Part-time "shrimpers" are all female college students.

  On May 23rd, a reporter from The Paper visited the site and learned that at present, two part-time waiters in the store are college students who work part-time. They wear disposable gloves when peeling shrimps for customers, and they don’t communicate too much. According to the store, the service will continue, and other waiters will also provide shrimp peeling service when the business is hot on holidays.

  This restaurant, which offers the service of peeling shrimp on behalf of customers, is located in Huaihai Middle Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai. At 18: 00 on May 23, the night market had just started. When He Nanxin, a part-time shrimp peeling waiter, arrived at the store, he put on an apron in the store first, and picked up a broom to help clean up before the customers arrived. Transparent disposable gloves and a white mask are prepared in the pocket of her apron. "This is to ensure the hygiene of peeling shrimp for customers."

  He Nanxin is from Xinjiang. She is a senior this year. She said that she didn’t really eat shrimp since she was a child. She didn’t learn to peel crayfish until she came to this restaurant for a part-time job. "Now the peeling is becoming more and more skilled. There is nothing special about peeling shrimp, that is, there will be some pain in the fingers after working every day." She said that on weekends when business is booming, she has to peel nearly 12 pounds of crayfish every night and earn more than 300 yuan a night. "Working part-time at night will not hinder daily study, but also support herself with labor."

  Will such service be embarrassing? He Nanxin said that in her own view, this is also the relationship between the waiter and the consumer. At work, she usually doesn’t talk to customers very much, and occasionally she talks a few words, mainly focusing on peeling shrimp. The faster she peels, the more she earns. ""Some netizens doubt our work, but I actually come to work part-time and work as a waiter. " He Nanxin said that he will continue to insist on this part-time job.

  Hotel: Beauty is not the only criterion for recruitment.

  On the day of The Paper reporter’s visit, a customer inquired about this service, saying that this service is quite innovative and can really save a lot of trouble, but it may be more suitable for customers who come to eat alone. Otherwise, it will be awkward for friends to have dinner and someone will sit opposite them. It will be much better if the shrimp can be peeled off and served.

  A few days ago, this "shrimp peeling on behalf of customers" service also caused a heated discussion on the Internet. Some netizens questioned that the store was "making gimmicks" and worried about the sanitary condition of the service. Some even wondered whether there were additional services or hidden consumption.

  "Every time a service is provided, the clerk will first explain to the customer that this service only involves peeling shrimp." Huang Meng, the manager of the store, said that this shrimp peeling service started in early May and may last until the end of September. Shrimp peeling service will charge 15% of the price of crayfish dishes as a service fee, which belongs to the shrimp peeling staff and is settled daily without going through the store account. "During the trial operation, we found that some customers wanted to play with their mobile phones while eating. Some female customers were worried that the shrimp shells were too hard and would hurt their fingers because of manicure. They all hoped that a waiter could help peel crayfish, so we wanted to launch a shrimp peeling service based on customers’ needs."

  Huang Meng said that they were also inspired by the idea of this service. Since the barbecue can be roasted by the waiter, the crayfish can also be peeled by the waiter. At present, there are two shrimpers in the restaurant, both of whom are college students who come to work part-time. Considering the convenience and safety of part-time college students, the general working hours of shrimp peeling waiters are from 6 pm to 11 pm. Based on the customer’s demand, the shrimp peeling waiter can sit opposite the customer and peel the shrimp continuously, or take it to the kitchen and serve it after peeling. When the business is booming on weekends or holidays, other waiters will also provide shrimp peeling service, and they will also charge 15% service fee, which will be owned by the waiter.

  "In fact, the purpose of launching this service is to let diners enjoy food better. I didn’t expect the focus of the network to be so different. We don’t use beauty as the sole criterion for recruitment, but all recruitment in the service industry is to find a good look. " Huang Meng said that this shrimp peeling service will continue at present, and efforts will be made to improve the quality of this service, and medical masks will be purchased for waiters in the future.

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".

A-shares rushed to 3500 points. How much foreign capital will flow in 2021?

  A-shares got off to a good start in 2021. On January 4th, the market went up unilaterally all day, and the Shanghai Composite Index stood at 3,500 points. The turnover of the two cities once again exceeded one trillion yuan after nearly two months. However, the net outflow of northbound funds on that day was 542 million yuan.

  Looking back on 2020, the total inflow of northbound funds was 208.932 billion yuan. According to Morgan Stanley’s latest calculation, if the inflow of foreign capital through QFII/RQFII channels is added, the annual net inflow of foreign capital into A shares will be as high as 52 billion US dollars (about 338 billion yuan at the exchange rate of 65). It is worth mentioning that in 2020, the passive capital inflow is only $3.4 billion, and the active capital inflow is $48 billion, which is becoming more and more important. Therefore, many institutions predict that in the context of the improvement of global risk sentiment in 2021, even if MSCI suspends the expansion and inclusion of A shares (passive capital reduction), the annual capital inflow will still exceed 2020. Essence Securities predicts that the inflow of northbound funds alone is expected to reach 200 billion to 280 billion yuan in 2021; Guosheng Securities predicts that the net inflow of northbound funds will exceed 300 billion yuan in 2021, exceeding 2020.

  Gao Ting, head of China research at Nomura Oriental International, told China Business News that 2021 is expected to be a big year for foreign capital to flow into A-shares. Although the overall valuation of A-shares is above the average of three or five years, foreign capital will bring additional valuation premium. As far as the theme is concerned, Morgan Stanley believes that international funds are particularly optimistic about the opportunities of the following themes in 2021 — — Consumption upgrading, high-end manufacturing (robotics, automation, etc.), new infrastructure (5G, Internet of Things, electric vehicle supply chain, etc.), national defense and aerospace, medical care/medicine/biotechnology, technology localization (semiconductor and hardware, software and application development).

  QFII/RQFII channels catch up with Shanghai-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect.

  In 2020, a total of 208.932 billion yuan of northbound capital flowed into A-shares, which was significantly less than 352.889 billion yuan in 2019 and even less than 291.5 billion yuan in 2018, which was also related to the decline of global risk sentiment under the epidemic. However, the positive trend is that the proportion of active capital inflows is increasing.

  Wang Ying, equity strategist at Morgan Stanley in China, told reporters that 2019 was a big year for passive capital inflows. Of the total foreign capital inflow of $66 billion in 2019, $19 billion (accounting for 29%) was contributed by the rebalancing events of five major indexes (two from FTSE Russell and three from MSCI), while the active capital inflow was $47 billion. In contrast, the passive capital inflow in 2020 is only $3.4 billion, which was triggered by FTSE Russell’s inclusion in the final stage of A-shares, while the active capital inflow is $48 billion. It can be seen that the importance of active funds is prominent.

  At the same time, 2020 is also a year in which the importance of QFII/RQFII channels rises rapidly. Wang Ying said that the capital inflow through this channel is narrowing the gap with the northbound capital inflow through Shanghai-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect. The reform measures of QFII/RQFII implemented in 2020 have significantly improved the accessibility of this channel, the accessibility of derivative tools and the convenience of capital return. Therefore, Morgan Stanley also predicts that the capital flowing into A shares through QFII/RQFII will account for 38% of the total foreign capital inflow in 2020, higher than 11% in 2018 and 24% in 2019.

  "We expect QFII/RQFII channels to contribute more A-share capital inflows in the future. Investors should pay more attention to understanding the dynamics of foreign investment. " Wang Ying said. In the early years, due to the convenience of opening an account with Shanghai-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect, many foreign investors began to use this channel to lay out A shares. However, with the continuous reform of QFII mechanism, especially the convenience of fund redemption, most foreign investors have indicated that they will use these two channels simultaneously as needed. Compared with Shanghai-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect, foreign capital can participate in innovation through QFII/RQFII, and the range of A shares can be wider (Shanghai-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect only covers about 1,500 A shares).

  2021 is expected to become a year of foreign capital inflow.

  It is precisely because of the strong momentum of active funds that international institutions judge that even in 2021, when passive funds may be weak, the momentum of foreign capital flowing into A shares will remain strong.

  However, according to what MSCI said in an interview with the First Financial Reporter, if the reform is accelerated, the process of MSCI’s inclusion may also be accelerated, and passive funds may be increased again in 2021. These related reform measures include: the CSRC approved the listing of MSCI A-share index futures on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, improved the trading holiday arrangement of Land Stock Connect, and solved the problem of short fund settlement cycle of A-shares. But for now, the probability is low.

  The reason why institutions are still optimistic about the momentum of active capital inflow in 2021 is because of the improvement of global risk sentiment, the bright performance of A shares and unique theme opportunities.

  "In 2020, A shares will become the best performing stock market in the world for the second year in a row — — The Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 Index achieved a price return rate of 35.5% (denominated in US dollars) in 2020, ahead of other major stock indexes in the world, and the performance of the Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 Index also surpassed other stock indexes in 2019. " Wang Ying said. Morgan Stanley maintains the view of over-allocation of A shares in 2021, and the target of the Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 Index at the end of 2021 is 5570 points, which means 6.9% upside.

  Global risk appetite is particularly critical, which can be seen from the northward capital change in 2020. Gao Ting told reporters that 2020 is a small year of foreign capital inflow, and the net inflow is only about half that of last year. The premise of foreign capital flowing to emerging markets is generally the improvement of risk appetite, so it is necessary to find markets with higher investment returns. However, in 2020, the epidemic continued to disturb market sentiment, and the overall global risk appetite was low. "For example, in the second quarter of 2020, due to the release of water by global central banks, northbound funds suddenly poured into A shares, but before the third quarter, they flowed out due to uncertainties such as the US election. By November, the election results were basically clear and the vaccines were favorable, and northbound funds returned to A shares again."

  At present, the basic judgment that global liquidity is heavy and vaccines promote economic recovery remains unchanged. Gao Ting believes that in the first quarter of 2021, the recovery will still be the macro background of the global capital market. It is suggested that investors tactically increase the allocation of optional consumption and cyclical stocks in the first quarter, especially considering the opportunities of automobiles, household appliances, home and media in optional consumption, and the promotion of some cyclical sectors brought about by the global recovery and rising inflation expectations. It is recommended to pay attention to the performance of oil and gas, copper and aluminum and small chemical industry leaders; As far as the whole year is concerned, the growth blue chip will still outperform, which is also related to the preference of foreign capital for the market leader. However, with the increasing familiarity of foreign capital with A shares, it will no longer focus on the traditional leader in the past.

  Foreign capital favors these investment themes.

  What themes do foreign investors favor? In fact, since 2020, foreign capital has bought A-share assets through QFII channel, and the list of industries and awkward stocks in its layout is often sought after by the market.

  Of course, the disclosure data of QFII funds is lagging behind. According to the data, by the third quarter of 2020, Bank of Ningbo, China Pacific Insurance, Changjiang Electric Power and Bank of Beijing were the stocks whose market value exceeded 10 billion yuan. Midea Group, Hengrui Pharma, Gree Electric, CONCH and other core assets called "Super White Horse" by the market have also become one of QFII’s heavyweight targets. In 2020, there are also many leading stocks such as Gree Electric, Midea Group, Oriental Fortune, CONCH and Changjiang Electric Power in the list of buying and selling stocks with active capital in the north.

  The new theme of 2021 is also receiving high attention. Miao Zimei, director of Asia stock investment of Fidelity International, told the First Financial Reporter that the Central Economic Conference set the policy of "no sharp turn" in 2021, kept the macro leverage ratio basically stable, and clarified eight key tasks in 2021, highlighting science and technology, industrial autonomy, expanding domestic demand, reform and opening up, seed farmland, housing, carbon neutrality and other major areas, strengthening anti-monopoly and preventing disorderly expansion of capital. "Therefore, we believe that funds will flow out of real estate and large Internet companies and flow into other key development areas."

  "For 2021, we are particularly optimistic about the following five themes," Miao Zimei said, including the new energy industry (new energy vehicle industry chain, renewable energy, ESG-conscious enterprises), and the valuation of the whole vehicle sector is at a fairly high level, so we are more optimistic about the equipment in the middle reaches and related companies such as raw materials in the upper reaches; Commodities (precious metals, industrial products, agriculture), under the background of COVID-19 vaccine landing, with the deepening of people’s economic activities, the growth rate of consumer demand will continue to improve, and the supply end may tighten, which will make some commodities get a risk premium, optimistic about non-ferrous metals, agricultural products, ferrous metals, etc. Optional consumption (young consumers, green consumption, etc.), before 2017, consumption was mainly contributed by the post-1970 s, but its growth has slowed down marginally, and the growth rate of the post-1990 s is very strong; Health care (vaccine-related companies, innovative drugs, etc.) is more optimistic about the innovative industrial chain after the disturbance of quantity procurement, and the core investment direction is mainly in CXO, innovative drugs, innovative equipment and vaccine track; Network security, although the revenue growth rate of listed companies in this sector in the third quarter of 2020 was lower than the previous market expectation, and the overall industry demand recovered or slowed down under the epidemic, in the long run, the increase in the penetration rate of information security construction will still promote the industry to maintain a high prosperity.

"New Shaolin Temple" Fan Bingbing soaked in cold water in cold winter, Nicholas Tse stepped on Andy Lau

    In the film, Nicholas Tse plays Cao Man, the adjutant of the warlord Hou Jie, who is ruthless and wants to kill his whole family after defection. In addition to beating Yan Xi, who is played by Fan Bingbing, he is thrown into a water tank. During this scene, Fan Bingbing wanted to make the audience feel more real. She told Nicholas Tse that he could really hit her once or twice, so that it might not look very fake. When filming happened last winter, the weather was very cold. Fan Bingbing soaked in cold water for several hours. His dedicated attitude moved director Chen Musheng and the on-site staff and applauded him. When it comes to playing such a hard-working role, Fan Bingbing said, "Actors are like this. In order to play a good role, you need to pay a lot. If the role needs you to live, you have to live, and if the role needs you to die, you have to die. At that time, I suddenly had a very fatalistic feeling." Fan Bingbing, who resists everything alone, also shows her "man" side again.
