History must not be forgotten! Be alert to the trend of Japanese neo-militarism

  Xinhua News Agency, Tokyo, August 14th (international observation) History must not be forgotten! Be alert to the trend of Japanese neo-militarism

  Xinhua news agency reporter

  On August 15th, 1945, Japan declared its unconditional surrender. The Nanjing Massacre that shocked the world, the infamous 731 Japanese troops invading China, and the inhuman "three light policies" & HELIP; … The Japanese invaders committed countless heinous crimes in China. However, Japan selectively "forgets" history, and only emphasizes itself as a "victim of war" in commemorative activities such as the Hiroshima nuclear explosion. Some Japanese politicians also openly pay homage to the Yasukuni Shrine, which honors Class-A war criminals of World War II. Since last year, the Kishida government has made major adjustments to its security foreign policy, which has pushed Japan to the wrong path of abandoning pacifism and returning to militarism.

  Analysts pointed out that Japan’s new militaristic trend not only made the Japanese people panic and uneasy, but also aggravated the vigilance and worry of Asian neighbors and the international community about Japan’s future development direction. On the occasion of the 78th anniversary of Japan’s defeat, Japan should deeply reflect on its historical guilt, remember the historical lessons and avoid going further and further on the wrong road.

  Breaking the post-war taboo and seeking military loosening

  Since the end of World War II, the Japanese right wing has never given up the dream of a political power and the dream of a military power. However, the clause in Article 9 of the Japanese Peace Constitution about "giving up war, giving up the use of force, and not retaining land, sea and air and other combat forces" has put on Japan a "tight spell" of "defending exclusively" and has become an obstacle for the Japanese right wing to realize its dream.

  On May 3rd, people held a procession and rally to protect the Constitution in Youming Disaster Prevention Park in Tokyo, Japan. They put up slogans and flags that protect the Constitution, oppose strengthening the army and expanding its arms, do not fight back, and oppose amending the Constitution, calling for protecting the Constitution and peace.

  However, since the end of last year, the Kishida government has successively broken many taboos, actually overhead the peace constitution and realized the military loosening. First of all, through the new version of the National Security Strategy and other three security policy documents (referred to as the "three documents"), we seek to gain "the ability to attack enemy bases", break through the peaceful constitutional constraints and "defend exclusively" commitments, marking a major change in Japan’s security policy after the war. Secondly, it is determined to substantially increase the defense expenditure to match the military expansion, and plans to achieve the goal that defense expenditure accounts for 2% of GDP in fiscal year 2027, breaking the convention that the Japanese government basically followed after the war that defense expenditure accounts for no more than 1%. Third, lift the ban on arms exports. The "Three Principles of Arms Export" which prohibited Japan from exporting weapons after the war was replaced by the "Three Principles of Defence Equipment Transfer" during the reign of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Now, the "Three Documents" propose to revise the "Three Principles of Defence Equipment Transfer" and its detailed rules in an attempt to greatly relax arms export restrictions.

  The signs of Japan’s military expansion and preparation for war have triggered Japanese public criticism and public concern. Japan’s anti-war peace organization "Peace Ideas and Suggestions Conference" issued a statement saying that the "three documents" will once again make Japan a country capable of waging war, thus inciting an arms race in East Asia, which is extremely dangerous. Yan Haohou, an honorary professor at Yamaguchi University in Japan, believes that the "three documents" will aggravate the tension between Japan and its Asian neighbors.

  Upgrade Japan-US alliance and link NATO eastward.

  In recent years, the United States has led the construction of a "quadrilateral mechanism" among the United States, Japan, India and Australia in the Asia-Pacific region, and has formed a "small circle" to encourage camp confrontation.

  Since taking office, the Kishida government has been bent on following the United States, willing to be the United States in Depth Charge in the Asia-Pacific region. The new version of the "three documents" on security upgrades the military alliance between Japan and the United States, and switches from the original "defending the US attack on Japan" to the "attacking and defending together" mode. To this end, Japan will purchase and install a large number of American Tomahawk cruise missiles in the next five years, and develop high-speed gliding bombs and hypersonic missiles. Kishida’s abacus is to be humble and small in front of the United States, take the opportunity to expand armaments, and step forward to a "normal country" and a "military power."

  The Kishida government has also actively expanded multilateral military cooperation. In addition to cooperating with the United States to build a "quadrilateral mechanism" among the United States, Japan, India and Australia, the US-Japan-ROK military alliance, the US-Japan-Australia, the US-Japan-Philippines and other small multilateral mechanisms, it has also linked NATO countries to intervene in Asia-Pacific affairs, including holding joint military exercises with NATO countries in the Asia-Pacific region and Kishida himself attending NATO summits twice. At the NATO summit in July this year, Japan and NATO reached an agreement on a new military cooperation plan, upgraded the previous plan, and added new contents such as cyber defense, coping with emerging technological challenges such as artificial intelligence, and space security. The cooperation areas increased from 9 to 16. However, at this meeting, NATO’s proposal to set up a liaison office in Japan, which attracted much attention, was not passed due to opposition from France and others.

  The trip to Kishida’s NATO summit was strongly opposed by many Japanese people. Protesters criticized NATO as a war group, which would only pose a threat to world peace. The frequent interaction between Kishida’s government and NATO was to introduce war into the Asia-Pacific region. Bi Valerian said that Japan’s approach to NATO and the creation of tension in Asia violated its commitment to China when China and Japan concluded a treaty of peace and friendship 45 years ago.

  Rendering "Taiwan Province has something" to incite regional tension

  It’s the consistent behavior of some Japanese politicians to follow the US strategy of "controlling China with Taiwan" and deliberately intervene in the Taiwan Province issue. Taro Aso, vice-president of the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan, made wild remarks during his visit to Taiwan Province this month, exaggerating the tension in the Taiwan Strait, provoking confrontation and rudely interfering in China’s internal affairs.

  Aso’s remarks during his flight to Taiwan were strongly criticized by people of insight in Japan. Saionji, a representative of the Future-China Research Association, issued a protest statement saying that Aso’s rude words and deeds were naked hostile remarks against China, which violated the Japanese Constitution which renounced the right to participate in the war, the Japan-China Joint Statement and the Japan-China Treaty of Peace and Friendship, and undermined peace and stability in Northeast Asia.

  Tomoyuki Quanchuan, a special researcher at the Institute of Regional Studies of Okinawa University in Japan, said that Taiwan Province is not a part of Japan, and the Taiwan Province issue is his internal affair. Aso is the platform of Democratic Progressive Party authorities, and his irresponsible remarks will involve Okinawa in the war, which is extremely immoral.

  On April 25, in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Tokyo, Japan, Okinawa Prefecture Councillor Dangshan Shengli (third from left) was interviewed by reporters. On April 24th and 25th, respectively, in Tokyo, Japan, a delegation of members from Okinawa Prefecture submitted a resolution on peaceful diplomacy adopted by the prefectural assembly to the Japanese Defense Ministry, the Cabinet Office of Japan and the Japanese Foreign Ministry, calling on the Japanese government not to turn Okinawa into a battlefield, but to solve the problem peacefully through dialogue and diplomacy.

  In recent years, the Japanese government has stepped up efforts to build the southwestern islands, including Okinawa Prefecture, into military fortresses. In March this year, the Ground Self-Defense Force opened a base in Ishigaki Island and deployed garrison and missile units, claiming to fill the long-standing defense gap. This is another base set up by the Self-Defense Forces in the southwest islands after Nagano Island, Miyako Island and Amami Island. In addition, according to the United States-Japan joint operational plan about the so-called "something happened to Taiwan Province" exposed in December 2021, the United States will set up military bases for attacks in the southwest islands with the support of Japan, and there are about 40 candidate sites.

  The above actions were strongly opposed by Okinawa residents. They criticized the Japanese government for excessively strengthening its defense and military forces, making them feel that Okinawa may once again become a battlefield. The Governor of Okinawa Prefecture, Yucheng Denny, issued the Peace Declaration at the memorial ceremony for the Okinawa war dead in June this year, saying that the Japanese government has continuously strengthened its defense forces in Okinawa, making the Okinawa people with deep war memories uneasy, and hoped that the Japanese government could ease regional tensions through dialogue. These statements clearly show that Okinawa residents want an island of peace, not a military fortress.

Global news: Apple Head Show has been sent to the distribution warehouse in the United States? "Electronic Spring Festival Evening" CES is about to open.

  On January 8th, last week was the first trading week in 2024, but judging from the performance of risky assets, the start of the new year was not ideal.

  In the first week of the year, the major stock indexes of US stocks fell across the board, and the S&P 500 index fell by 1.52%, which was the first decline in the past 10 weeks, ending the longest consecutive gains in the past 20 years. Both US Treasury bonds and corporate bonds recorded their biggest weekly declines since October. According to the statistics of Zerohedge, in terms of evaporated market value, in 2024, the global bond and stock markets lost more than $3 trillion for the worst start in history.

  The market value of the seven major technology stocks including Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, Amazon, NVIDIA and Tesla evaporated by more than 400 billion US dollars last week, and their share prices almost retreated all the gains in December.

  All this is mainly due to the callback of the Fed’s interest rate cut transaction. Last week, both ADP employment data and non-farm employment data exceeded expectations, indicating that the US job market is still full of resilience, which suppressed the market’s expectation of the Fed’s interest rate cut in March.

  Guotai Junan, the first window of the interest rate cut transaction began to show fatigue after two months. The rush of the market is the most fundamental reason: interest rate cuts would have brought loose liquidity, but the congestion of "interest rate reduction transactions" has brought new problems. For fear of missing trading opportunities, the accumulation of a large number of positions on the one hand makes the negative spread of long-term debt trading more significant, on the other hand, it also leads to the increasingly tight liquidity in the market.

  It is worth noting that Apple’s performance was the most "bleak" last week. Apple’s share price fell for the fifth consecutive day last Friday, with a drop of 5.9% in 2024. Due to concerns about the future prospects of the iPhone, it was downgraded by two investment banks within a week. To make matters worse, the US Department of Justice is close to filing an antitrust lawsuit against Apple, and it is possible to file a lawsuit in the first half of this year at the earliest.

  According to the report, the US Department of Justice is focusing on the entire Apple ecosystem: how Apple uses its control over hardware and software to make it more difficult for consumers to give up the company’s equipment and make it more difficult for competitors to compete. Investigators’ concerns include the closed iMessage service and payment system, which performs better when Apple Watch is paired with iPhone.

  At present, the market value difference between Apple and Microsoft is only 3%. If there is any mistake in the consumer electronics leader, the position of the "stock king" of the US stock market may be handed over to the AI ​ ​ trendsetter Microsoft.

  Looking at this week, the most global concern is the 2024 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), which is known as the "Electronic Spring Festival Evening". On January 9th, it will be opened in Las Vegas, USA, when all kinds of new consumer technology products around the world will be exhibited. The industry expects more AI products to be unveiled this year.

  The giants of this year’s CES show are gathered, and it is estimated that more than 130,000 industry participants and more than 4,000 companies will participate. Major technology companies such as AMD, Hisense, Lenovo, LG, Nvidia, Panasonic, Qualcomm and Samsung are expected to make major announcements and product releases at CES 2024. This year’s CES keynote speech focused on artificial intelligence and technology for good. As the upsurge of generative artificial intelligence continues to spread, CES 2024 is expected to create a new wave of artificial intelligence innovation.

  In addition, this week will focus on the inflation data of China and the United States, and many senior officials of the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank will deliver speeches; OpenAI will go online to customize GPT store; Bank of America shares started the Q4 earnings season.

  [Market Review]

  Last week, the Nasdaq Composite Index fell 3.25%, the S&P 500 Index fell 1.52% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.59%. The three major indexes of U.S. stocks ended the record of rising for nine consecutive weeks.

  NVIDIA’s share price hasn’t peaked yet. Can it rise by 42% this year?

  According to the latest report released by Bank of Nvidia, as continues to make use of its success in developing and selling artificial intelligence chips, the sharp rise in its share price last year may continue into 2024.

  The bank said that NVIDIA’s fast-growing income and profits will enable it to generate 100 billion dollars of free cash flow in the next two years. By contrast, NVIDIA’s free cash flow in the past two years was less than $30 billion. Arya, an analyst at Bank of America, reiterated his "Buy" rating on NVIDIA and his target price of $700, which means that the company’s share price has a 42% upward potential compared with the current level.

  "Electronic Spring Festival Evening" CES 2024 will open AI "Singing Drama"

  Apple Head Display Vision Pro has been sent to the US distribution warehouse or the release date will be announced next week.

  According to Mark Gurman, a well-known science and technology reporter, Apple’s retail department and supply chain are fully preparing for the launch of the head-mounted Vision Pro. This headset has been shipped to the distribution warehouse in the United States, and it seems that it can provide sufficient inventory for Apple retail stores for sale in February. He predicted that Apple would soon release an official statement about the release date of Vision Pro, probably next week, so as not to be upstaged by the new product information from CES Electronics Show. Some retail employees are already in the process of going to Apple Park to receive Vision Pro sales training.

  Apple may release a generative AI tool in June.

  Mark Gurman revealed in the latest issue of "Power On" that Apple plans to launch a series of tools based on generative artificial intelligence at the World Developers Conference (WWDC) in June. Gourmain said that these new tools will appear as part of iOS 18, including an improved version of Siri. The new version of Siri is said to have more natural conversation ability and provide a more personalized user experience.

  The initial US$ 1.66 trillion budget agreement between the two parties in the United States is expected to prevent the government from shutting down.

  The leaders of the US Congress reached a $1.66 trillion agreement on Sunday local time to provide funds for the federal government in 2024, which will reserve funds for key domestic and social safety net projects in the event that the Republican Party demands to cut the government budget. At present, parliamentarians are faced with a severe deadline to pass legislation, compile agreements and avoid a partial government shutdown. About 20% of government funds, including some necessary projects, will be exhausted on January 19th, and the rest will be exhausted on February 2nd.

"Rabbit Violence" has attracted attention. What happened to director China’s collective promotion of new people


Special feature of 1905 film network After four days of release, the box office exceeded 20 million, and the real-time prediction of related platforms is expected to reach 40 million, which is the achievement achieved so far from the young director support program of the China Film Directors Association called the "Green Project".

 

Among the 25 young directors selected in the past five sessions of the Onion Project, 15 films have been made, and 5 films including "Rabbit Violence" have been presented to the audience. It can be said that it is one of the most efficient new director plans in China at present.

 

But at the same time, we will also have a question. At present, Rabbit Violence, which has the highest box office, has 20 million, while Over the Spring, which has a high reputation, has a total box office of only 10 million. And there have been several billion new directors in the market. Under such circumstances, why do we need these new director support programs?

When talking about what kind of directors Shallot is planning to find for China films, Sun Yang, the producer of Under the Sun, said, "I don’t think so. You can’t say that the talents you must ask Shallot to find are, must be, and. In fact, the person was the last person to look at. For example, at that time, the person who signed up for the green project could not be so good — — It is more important to see the potential of a future. "


Liang Ming, the director who filmed "Under the Sun", was selected as one of the top five directors of the Third Green Project in 2018 with this project. After the film was completed, it was shown in several international film festivals and was released in China in November 2020. It took two years from selection to release.


Compared with other venture capital activities in the mainland, the speed of the Green Onion Program to support young directors is quite fast, and compared with the previous two sessions, it seems to the outside world that young directors have completed their own projects more smoothly.

 

The chairman of the Green Onion Project believes that this is an inevitable trend from market development to brand building. At the beginning of the Green Onion Project, the industry still held a wait-and-see attitude towards young directors.

 

Since the first green onion plan launched in 2015, the market has indeed experienced a change from indifference to new directors to venture capital and new director plans. And the shallot project, which has entered the sixth session, has always held a good hand — — This plan initiated by China Film Directors Association is equivalent to gathering the collective strength of directors in China to tap new talents for the industry.

 


Jia Zhangke,,, and other directors have all held the post of chairman, and the evaluation instructors include directors and producers of,,,,, and so on. It is the best industry resource to help the new director complete his feature film debut.

Most of the young directors selected for the Green Onion Project have relevant film and television education background and certain professional experience, and this phenomenon has become more and more obvious in recent years. However, unlike other venture capitalists, after five years’ development, the Shallot Project pays more attention to training, and the selected directors will go through several months’ mentor training before choosing the final five.

 

We are also very curious, why do these young directors with certain experience need training?

 

"All of our training courses are facing actual combat." Chairman Wang Hongwei explained, "Facing the front line of creation, facing the current environment and market. Maybe college education can’t keep up with the market and the environment so fast. Then our training as this industry must not be divorced from the market and the environment. "

 


Many reports have also talked about the training mode of the Shallot Project, which is a series of training from creation to distribution. But what is more important is obviously the further support for their creation after the selection of the top five directors. Sun Yang, the producer, told us that the reward mode of the Onion Project now is to put the bonus into the crew account after the crew is established, so as to ensure that the funds can be used as film investment, and at the same time, the funds for the director’s reward have become the director’s share in the film.

 

However, only 1 million funds are not enough to support the operation of a crew. The project selected for the Green Onion Project may not be the more commercial theme favored by the market, so Xiaodong Hou, the chief producer of the Green Onion Project, is also helping the project with financing. For example, negotiate with companies such as Ali and Wanda, give these companies priority investment rights and jointly support young directors.

 

An industry veteran revealed that every year, Xiaodong Hou would go to major companies to introduce projects related to the Green Onion Project, hoping to promote cooperation and jointly launch a new director.

However, when the project is filmed and put on the market, it will have the commodity attribute. The market is more looking forward to the commercial performance of these films. Wang Hongwei has been thinking about the arrival rate of these films. He mentioned that the Sixth Shallot Plan, which has already started, is working hard to improve the arrival rate and the influence on the audience and the market in terms of selecting projects and training directors.

 

In Sun Yang’s view, the success of the Shallot Project is to make directors recognized in the industry. "This goal may be different from that of the Pure Art Film Festival. We still have to consolidate the market, consolidate the team of young directors, and update the market, genre and film awareness. "

 

"Rabbit Violence may be expected to reach more than 40 million, which is a good state. I think the box office is really not the first important thing for these young directors. "

 

"Including our" Under the Sun ",although from the market point of view, it didn’t get a very explosive harvest, but the director Liang Ming actually gained more because he was recognized in the industry and won some related awards. I think these are enough things."


 

Sun Yang’s remarks have indeed been confirmed by other directors. For example, Liang Ming, Bai Xue and other directors’ next works are already in preparation. Chen Shizhong, who was selected as one of the top five directors of the 5th Green Project, has not started shooting his own selected project, The Wild Romance, but he has been recognized by the industry. His new film, Finding Her, is invested by Wanda and Dongshen, starring in it, which is also a very good opportunity for the new director.

Compared with other domestic venture capital and new director support programs, the biggest feature of the Green Onion Program is that there is no related film festival to form a closed-loop system. But in Wang Hongwei’s view, this just gives directors more freedom.

 

Wang Hongwei said that once the support plan has formed a closed loop, it may not be a healthy phenomenon, and it may be the best choice for the director to complete the final inspection of the works more openly facing the market. "Our annual plan will last for about four months, which is actually beyond the span of any film festival. And if it is based on a certain film festival, then it feels like it has become a relatively closed system. "

 

When the works are handed over to the market, they are faced with the consideration of real money and silver. When "Over Spring" was released, the producer and director of the film once asked whether the Shallot Project could continue to travel with the film for a period of time in the film’s announcement stage.

 


However, Wang Hongwei also admitted that the strength of China Film Directors Association is not enough to cover the stage of publicity and development, and the industry association is not a publicity and development company, and more can only rely on the strength of the big coffee industry to complete the follow-up work.

 

"The box office is not ideal. There are reasons why the content of the film itself is relatively small, and some of them are really unable to keep up with the announcement of these low-cost films. Then, in the current market environment, Xuanfa has become a thing that needs real money to do, so it will be relatively difficult. This is also a new director. If it is said that after shooting a film that is actually professionally qualified or even better, then the problem faced at the export end. "

 

For example, "Rabbit Violence", which was produced by the producer, cooperated with Cat’s Eye in the release stage, and became the best-selling film in the box office. "Over Spring" has been escorted by Wanda. Looking at the film of the current green onion project, the one who is photographed is likely to become a little dark horse.

 

This film, which was selected for the 4th Green Project, starred by Yao Chen,, and so on, can be called the best combination of personal expression and commercialization pursued by the current Green Project, and it has been finished. And, as a producer, was selected for the fifth shallot program, which was officially launched in July this year.

 

Talking about the future development direction of the Green Onion Project, Wang Hongwei said that even if the reaction in the market is weak, I hope that the industry can see the ideas, concepts and the ability to shoot feature films of this group of young directors: "Our goal is not only to push a film, but more importantly, a group of directors can become such a generation that can take over in the future China films, especially in the mainstream film market."

  (Supervision Committee of Yunnan Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection)

The National Energy Administration issued the Development Policy of Biodiesel Industry.

The Biodiesel Industry Development Policy (hereinafter referred to as the Policy) recently released by the Energy Bureau proposes to build a sustainable raw material supply system that is suitable for the characteristics of China’s resources, mainly based on waste oils and supplemented by wood (grass) non-edible oils.

  In order to achieve the above objectives, the Policy proposes that the provinces that develop the biodiesel industry of waste oil should build a relatively complete recycling system of waste oil and improve the laws and regulations on recycling; Initially establish an oil supply model for energy crops (plants); Explore and optimize microalgae culture and oil extraction technology to achieve a breakthrough in microalgae biodiesel technology.

  The Policy also requires that biodiesel production enterprises must build a complete and reliable raw material supply system. Biodiesel production enterprises with waste oil as raw materials should formulate a perfect waste oil supply plan, focusing on the connection with the provincial biodiesel industry special plan, and sign a long-term contract or agreement with the waste oil supply unit that has obtained the business license to clarify the source and quantity of waste oil. With oil-bearing energy plants as raw materials, raw material planting bases of corresponding scale should be built.

  The Policy also requires that the yield of biodiesel products (calculated by convertible substances) should reach more than 90%, the consumption of methanol per ton of biodiesel products should not be higher than 125 kg, the fresh water should not be higher than 0.35 m3, and the comprehensive energy consumption should not be higher than 150 kg of standard coal; By-product glycerol must be recovered, separated and purified; "Three wastes" are discharged up to standard. Biodiesel production facilities that still fail to meet the requirements within two years should be eliminated.

  The Policy encourages the promotion and use of biodiesel in key areas of air pollution prevention and control such as Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta. Encourage automobile and ship manufacturers and related research institutions to optimize the design of diesel engine systems and give full play to the power, energy saving and environmental protection characteristics of biodiesel blended fuels.

Mengsong Township, Menghai County: "Small Fruit" Drives "Great Development"

Menghai Jinshi Agriculture Co., Ltd. is located in Banggang Village, Mengsong Township. The company focuses on standardized cultivation, large-scale production and industrialized operation of citrus, with 26 full-time employees. With the strong support of the county party committee and the county government, the company actively explores and implements the development model of "Party organization+company+cooperative+farmer", builds the party organization in the industrial chain, gathers party member in the industrial chain, makes the people rich in the industrial chain, builds the brand in the industrial chain, and takes the road of the whole industrial chain development, with about 300 employees per season, which drives the local people to increase their income by more than 1.1 million yuan every year.

Build a strong organization to lead the development of enterprises

The company attaches great importance to the leading role of party building in development. In June 2017, it established a party branch, insisted on building teams, strengthening organizations, grasping demonstrations, promoting the construction of party organizations and promoting the development of enterprises.

First, build a strong team to lead the development.

Adhere to the "three trainings", train the production backbones into party member, party member and party member, and train the production backbones into managers, and truly select people who know how to operate, manage and have leadership skills to the post of branch secretary, thus building a party member team with high quality, strong ability and good function.

The second is to promote development by pairing and building together.

The party branch of the company gives full play to the advantages of the enterprise’s industrial characteristics, actively cooperates with the general party branch of Banggang Village, and carries out work in the aspects of activity interconnection, complementary development and common solution of difficulties, so as to promote the deep integration of party building work and industrial development. Through the leadership of the Party branch, we fully mobilized the enthusiasm and initiative of the masses, further revitalized idle land resources, successfully transferred 3,000 mu of idle land, paid more than 6 million yuan of land transfer funds, and built 1,500 mu of "standardized orchard+citrus planting base".

The third is to give full play to advantages and help development.

The company actively organized party member to carry out household publicity and policy guidance, and organized the masses in the mode of "company+farmers" by adopting the mode of "big growers showing themselves". More than 20 households participated in citrus industrial planting, attracted about 300 seasonal employees and paid more than 800,000 yuan in wages every year.

Doing a good brand to promote industrial development

Adhere to green agriculture, quality agriculture, strong brand agriculture, and promote mountain specialty products to become high-quality goods.

The first is to expand the industrial scale. Relying on the good business environment in Menghai County, in 2022, the company signed an investment agreement with Shuangjiang Siwu Citrus Fruit Industry Co., Ltd. through the government platform of state investment projects, with a total investment of 150 million yuan, and will build a large-scale pollution-free citrus production base of 3,000 mu, with an annual output of 10,000 tons, total sales of more than 80 million yuan and tax revenue of more than 5 million yuan.

The second is to overcome technical problems. The company pays close attention to the transformation and study of modern agricultural technology, establishes citrus demonstration planting base, vigorously develops environmental protection and comprehensive development of resources, and integrates livestock and poultry breeding, biogas production, intelligent greenhouse and micro-drip irrigation water-saving technology to build a modern orchard with less consumption and more output and multi-level recycling. The citrus planted by the company went on the market one month earlier than the products of the same period on the market, winning the market opportunity; The newly developed "seedless citrus" has won wide recognition from consumers, and truly transformed the resource advantage into industrial advantage, competitive advantage and development advantage.

The third is to optimize the management mode. The management mode of "company+technology+order base+demonstration base+farmers" was adopted, which effectively reduced the procurement and transportation costs in other places, promoted the development of upstream and downstream industrial chains, and effectively promoted the people to increase their income and become rich.

Interest connection drives the development of the masses

The company constantly improves the system and mechanism, adopts the mechanism of linking agriculture with agriculture such as order purchase, drives farmers from "small production" to "big market", forms a pattern of complementary advantages and division of labor and cooperation in the industrial chain of enterprises and farmers, and promotes the stable income increase of the masses.

The first is to enhance the development stamina of the masses. On the basis of helping the masses to develop, the company extended the chain of assistance. The company established a guaranteed purchase mechanism with poverty-stricken households in Mengsong Township. On the premise of ensuring quality, it gave priority to purchasing oranges from poverty-stricken households, and provided unified services such as "material supply, technical guidance, and market sales" to help the masses cut costs and increase income, which not only enhanced the development potential of enterprises, but also carried the development support of the masses.

The second is to improve the overall quality of the masses. In view of the technical shortcomings of fruit farmers in orchard management, pest control, etc., party member, who is familiar with the national language and has technical expertise, and his employees have been waiting for a long time to carry out technical guidance on cultivation and management. Regularly carry out citrus planting guidance and business training, invite state and county experts to carry out various trainings for more than 10 sessions, benefiting 3000 people, realizing the transformation of orchard from extensive management to refined management, and improving product quality and family income.

The third is to fulfill corporate social responsibility. Always adhere to the principle that "non-public enterprises will always follow the Party" and show their gratitude to the Party with practical actions. In 2021, the Party branch of the company organized employees to express condolences to the frontline guards on the border for many times, and donated 30,000 yuan for strengthening the border and preventing and controlling the epidemic, supporting the infrastructure construction of villages, subsidizing poor students, etc., and helping the masses solve practical difficulties with their hearts.

From "Rough Man" to "Exquisite boy" and "double 11" men’s make-up sales increased!

This year’s "double 11" campaign is underway, and beauty and skin care products have become the main battlefields for businesses to snatch consumers. However, buying skin care products and make-up is not a patent for women. With the increasing number of "exquisite boys", the sales of men’s make-up and skin care products have also surprised many people in this "double 11".
The client reporter of South China Morning Post visited and learned that there are also many interesting phenomena behind the sales changes of various commodities.
Perfume sales accelerated under the epidemic.
Ms. Chen, a citizen of Nanning, is a makeup artist and likes to buy lipstick. Now, because you have to wear a mask when you go out, lipstick will stain the mask. Ms. Chen began to transfer the money originally spent on lipstick to perfume. She has bought 10 perfumes in the past six months because "masks can’t block the smell of perfume."
Looking at the financial reports of major cosmetics groups in the world in the first half of 2021, we can find that the growth rate of perfume category sales is relatively high. For example, the sales revenue of perfume and beauty products under LVMH Group reached 3.02 billion euros in the first half of 2021, achieving a 37% increase. The financial report of L ‘Oré al Group in the first half of 2021 shows that in the high-end cosmetics department, the sales increased by 28.1% to 5.47 billion euros, and the perfume category increased obviously, which was higher than the market average, especially in China market.

"Other economy" has become a new trend of consumption.
Previously, the forecast of the new consumption trend of "double 11" released by an e-commerce platform showed that in the first round of pre-sale for one hour, men’s make-up increased by nearly 2 times year-on-year, and men’s grooming increased by 6 times year-on-year.
"It used to be rough, just simply washing your face and applying a cream. After work, I pay more attention to my external image, pay attention to skin care and clothing collocation, and enhance my personal taste. " After 90, Mr. Ou, a citizen of Nanning, was engaged in the real estate industry. The price of skin care products he bought ranged from several hundred yuan to 1,000 yuan. "Men pay attention to self-image management and will be more confident when they go out."
In the major shopping malls in Nanning, the attention of men’s skin care products is also increasing rapidly. A male shopping guide said that many men’s awareness of improving their own face value is increasing, and there is an increasing demand for beauty and skin care products. In addition to conventional skin care products, such as sunscreen and plain cream, it also attracts many men to buy.

"Yan value fever" stimulates male consumption demand
Tang Yusheng, a professor at the School of Business Administration of Guangxi University, believes that the hot sale of perfume is an "odor economy" that is not restricted by isolation. It is endowed with multiple meanings, such as covering the original body odor, enhancing personal image, improving happiness and relieving life anxiety. In addition, the promotion of some beauty experts and live broadcasts on social media will also have an impact on everyone’s consumption demands.
Nowadays, the male consumer market in the fields of skin care and beauty is also expanding, which is also inseparable from the promotion of the current "face value fever".
"Now, Yan value has become a part of the personal value system, men’s aesthetic consciousness has gradually been awakened, and the consumer market has gradually expanded." Li Sijie, a teacher in the Marketing Department of the School of Business Administration of Guangxi University of Finance and Economics, believes that the current "other economy" mainly involves young men born after 1980s and 1990s. Young people’s consumption is not only looking at the function of the product, but also the social attribute of the product is an important influencing factor in consumption decision-making, which is indeed a change in lifestyle and consumption psychology.
Lu Yimin, a doctor of economics at Guangxi University of Finance and Economics, believes that men’s pursuit of external image is a very reasonable phenomenon, which has also formed a new trend in the male consumer market. However, we should also avoid over-marketing and misleading about "Yan value". Whether men or women, the pursuit of "face value" should be healthy and positive, in order to promote the healthy development of the consumer market.

Meng Xianmin, Professor of Peat Research Institute of Northeast Normal University: The introduction and development of peat has become a strategic emerging industry in China.

Our reporter talks with Meng Xianmin, a professor at the Peat Research Institute of Northeast Normal University.
The introduction and development of peat has become a strategic emerging industry in China.
Meng Xianmin
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the State Council has taken a series of strategic measures to promote the development of factory farming, strengthen the restoration of degraded soil, and form a great demand for peat and peat products. The introduction, processing, popularization and application of peat resources has become a strategic emerging industry that needs to be developed urgently in China. What are the advantages of peat? What is the current situation of peat import, processing, popularization and application in China? How to apply it more reasonably in the next step? When the first China-Europe Peat Class was listed in Gansu, the reporter interviewed Meng Xianmin, a professor at Peat Research Institute of Northeast Normal University.
Meng Xianmin: Professor of Peat Research Institute of Northeast Normal University, executive vice president of Peat Industry Branch of China Humic Acid Industry Association, executive vice president of China National Committee of International Peat Society and member of matrix expert group of International Peat Society. From 1978 to 1982, he studied in the Department of Soil Agronomy of Shenyang Agricultural University, and obtained a bachelor’s degree in agronomy. From 1993 to 1994, he was sent to Macquarie Soil Research Institute in England. From 1996 to 1997, he served as a senior technical officer of wetlands international-China Project. From 1997 to 2000, he studied environmental science and engineering in the Graduate School of China Academy of Sciences and obtained a doctorate in science. He has participated in and presided over 18 national scientific and technological research projects and provincial scientific and technological projects, won 2 third prizes for national scientific and technological progress, 4 second prizes at provincial and ministerial levels, authorized 4 invention patents, published 64 papers in core journals, edited and published 3 monographs such as Peat Engineering, and published 204 peat blog posts.
Meng Xianmin has been engaged in exploration and evaluation of peat resources and research on peat development and utilization for a long time, which is one of the promoters of the formation and development of peat industry in China.
Reporter: What are the unique advantages and characteristics of peat?
Meng Xianmin: Peat is the predecessor of coal and the product accumulated year by year due to incomplete decomposition of dead plant residues. Peat is one of the eleven non-metallic strategic resources in China. According to the different types of plant residues, peat can be divided into three types: herbaceous peat, woody peat and moss peat. Although China has a certain reserve of herbaceous peat resources, it lacks woody peat and moss peat resources with higher economic value. Large-scale introduction, processing and popularization of peat resources are due to its three distinct characteristics.
First, peat has irreplaceable characteristics and advantages of other mineral resources. The content of organic matter of peat is as high as 90%-95%, which is 2-3 times that of commercial organic fertilizer and livestock manure. Peat contains 30%-60% humic acid, which is 6-20 times that of commercial organic fertilizer and livestock manure. Peat is the best fertile soil material for improving soil in existing agricultural inputs. Peat is the best substrate preparation raw material in the world, and it is an indispensable basic raw material for seedling production and substrate cultivation because of its ventilation, water permeability, large buffer capacity and strong water and fertilizer conservation ability. 2. Peat has no germs, no eggs, no grass seeds, no hormones, no antibiotics, and does not spread diseases, weeds and pests. Peat is a real natural, green, healthy and organic agricultural input without any environmental burden. 3. Peat has light bulk density, high compression ratio and low transportation cost, which is convenient for long-distance transportation. Peat has stable grade, soft structure, affordable price, convenient commercial processing and easy realization of mechanization, automation and digital production.
Happily, peat is a renewable resource The total area of peat land in the world is 4 million square kilometers, of which 86% belong to the continuous accumulation of peat land. The total amount of new peat in the world is about 4 billion cubic meters every year, while the annual global peat exploitation is less than 100 million cubic meters, and the new peat production is 40 times that of peat exploitation. Therefore, in 1978, the United Nations General Assembly resolution (33/148) defined peat as a renewable resource, which was further confirmed by the European Commission in 2020, and granted peat enterprises in various countries the right to exploit with licenses. Peat mining targets mainly face those degraded peat wasteland, peat farmland and peat woodland, which can not continue to accumulate peat. After peat mining, these peat fields can be rebuilt as wetlands to restore their peat accumulation functions and benefits.
Reporter: What fields are peat used at home and abroad?
Meng Xianmin: Peat has a wide range of applications. Before 2015, 50% of peat mined in Europe will be used for power generation and heating, and the other 50% will be used for seedling production, substrate cultivation, soil improvement and edible fungi production. However, since 2010, the global prices of oil, natural gas and coal have been depressed, the utilization of peat energy has gradually decreased, and the proportion of horticultural utilization has greatly increased. Although peat is widely used in industry, energy, environmental protection and chemical industry, the dominant and mainstream application fields are seedling cultivation, substrate cultivation, soil improvement and functional fertilizer preparation in modern agriculture. Among them, seedling cultivation and substrate cultivation belong to the high-tech field of modern agriculture, and soil health restoration, cultivated land quality improvement, three-dimensional greening and ecological restoration of abandoned mines belong to the high-tech field of ecological environment engineering.
Taking peat as the organic material source, according to the obstacle factors existing in the target soil, the nutritional demand and target yield of planted crops, scientifically adding targeted functional materials and appropriate inorganic nutrition, digital fertile soil products can be prepared through specific technological processes, so as to achieve high yield and high quality of crops, increase production and income, rebuild the agricultural production environment with clean water, fresh air and safe soil, effectively balance the relationship between agricultural green development and ecological environment protection, food safety and farmers’ income, and realize the organic unity of production, life and ecology.
Reporter: How big is the demand for peat market in China?
Meng Xianmin: Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the State Council, the CPC Central Committee, has put forward the development concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing and the decision of "One Belt, One Road" construction, vigorously advocated scientific and technological innovation and green production, and made great efforts to enhance the capacity of social, economic and environmental sustainable development. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs clearly put forward the strategy of green agriculture and quality agriculture, actively promoted the innovation of agricultural science and technology and the technical progress of inputs, promoted the development of factory farming, and strengthened the restoration of soil environment, thus forming a great demand for peat and peat products. According to the development of factory farming, the restoration of degraded farmland, the construction of sponge city and the restoration of abandoned mines, the total demand of peat in China can reach 300 million cubic meters per year, and the processing and sales of peat can create an output value of 500 billion yuan. The popularization and application of peat products can drive the new output value of factory farming, ecological environment restoration and other related industries to 25 trillion yuan, effectively promoting the internal circulation of domestic economy and forming a brand-new economic growth point.
Reporter: What are the significance of the introduction, processing and popularization of peat?
Meng Xianmin: I think there are four main points.
First, increasing the introduction of foreign high-quality peat resources is conducive to promoting China’s economic external circulation and strengthening international industrial cooperation. The "Belt and Road" connects the domestic peat market with foreign peat suppliers. The market size and potential of China are unique, but the peat resources are poor; Peat resources abroad are abundant, but the demand is weak. Allocating resources from a global scale, encouraging central enterprises and state-owned enterprises to go abroad with capital and technology, and bringing back resource profits can meet the domestic market demand for high-grade moss peat, woody peat, coconut bran and wood fiber resources; To increase the introduction of foreign peat resources, we can rely on the advantages of the "Belt and Road" platform to promote the free flow of peat elements, efficient allocation of resources and deep market integration in countries along the route, carry out high-level and deep-seated peat cooperation in the whole industry chain, work together to create green innovation power, serve the quality improvement of factory farming and cultivated land in China, and innovate and develop, overtake in corners and obtain independent intellectual property rights on the basis of introducing and digesting foreign resources, technology, equipment and certification.
Second, accelerating the development of peat import and processing industry is conducive to grasping market opportunities and promoting the development of peat strategic emerging industries. Peat resources and products are biodegradable, have no environmental burden, and are oriented to factory farming and cultivated land quality improvement. In terms of resources and product categories, it belongs to the Strategic Nonmetallic Mineral Resources (3.1.9) in the Guiding Catalogue of Key Products and Services of Strategic Emerging Industries (2018 Edition) issued by the State Council. In terms of product processing, it belongs to the comprehensive utilization industry of nonmetallic mineral resources (7.3.1). Speeding up the introduction of foreign peat resources, domestic processing and popularization and application can promote the formation and development of domestic peat deep processing and popularization and application of strategic emerging industries, cultivate peat processing and popularization and application of emerging industrial clusters, promote the development of factory farming, the restoration of degraded soil, the preparation of commercial organic fertilizer, urban three-dimensional greening and mine ecological construction, and promote the sustainable development of China’s economy, society and environment. Accelerating the introduction, processing and popularization of peat and the development of strategic emerging industries is conducive to promoting the construction of peat processing industrial clusters and popularization and application industrial clusters, gathering all kinds of essential resources, creating the development source, gathering area and peat cluster of peat processing emerging industries, forming the growth pole of peat innovation, improving the technical added value of peat products, enhancing the independent innovation ability of peat emerging industries, promoting the formation of new technologies, new products and new formats of peat, and accelerating the formation of new kinetic energy for economic and social development.
3. Accelerating the popularization and application of peat products is conducive to promoting the development of factory farming and the progress of agricultural science and technology. Seedling cultivation and substrate cultivation belong to modern agricultural high technology, and three-dimensional greening and mine restoration belong to modern environmental ecological engineering. Accelerating the introduction, processing, popularization and application of peat is conducive to gathering modern factory farming production factors such as big data, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, water and fertilizer integration, building a modern agricultural industrial park with "production+processing+market", giving play to the functions of technology integration, industrial integration, entrepreneurial platform, core radiation, etc., promoting the specialization, standardization and intensive production of new agricultural business entities, and promoting the upgrading of agriculture and the value-added of the whole chain. Reduce the pressure on natural resources such as water, soil, temperature and light, alleviate the contradiction between economic development and environmental capacity, realize agricultural efficiency, increase farmers’ income and increase rural greening, guide and cultivate emerging markets, provide users with high-quality supply and meet consumers’ quality needs. With the help of peat substrate products, the three-dimensional greening of cities can be realized, the construction of sponge cities can be promoted, high-quality vegetables and flowers and beautiful and fresh living spaces can be provided for the urban environment and citizens’ families, and the needs of people’s higher-level material and cultural life can be met.
4. Accelerating the introduction, processing, popularization and application of peat is conducive to improving the soil quality of fruit, vegetable and camellia planting and rebuilding soil health. Accelerating the introduction, processing, popularization and application of peat can promote the popularization and application of peat soil conditioner in improving and fertilizing degraded soil in protected agriculture, effectively improve soil structure, adjust soil acidity and alkalinity, increase soil organic matter and nutrients, improve soil microbial activity, solidify soil heavy metals, repair polluted soil environment, improve the output and quality of agricultural products, create a "green mountain" of agricultural environment, and realize green development and sustainable development under the new economic normal.
Reporter: What suggestions do you have for the benign development of peat supply chain in China?
Meng Xianmin: Peat is an irreplaceable strategic resource for modern agriculture and environmental restoration. We have the following suggestions: First, strengthen public publicity and education, enhance the domestic public and management departments’ understanding of the great significance of peat introduction, processing and popularization, and form an atmosphere in which the whole society supports and encourages the introduction, processing and popularization of peat; Secondly, we will promote state-owned enterprises and state-owned enterprises to invest in the acquisition of peat property rights and capacity improvement in Russia, Belarus, Malaysia and other countries, change the disadvantage of relying solely on procurement but not controlling resources from the source, realize the transnational operation of peat in the whole industrial chain, rapidly expand peat production capacity, reduce the cost of peat introduction, and meet the rapidly growing demand for peat in China. Third, support the General Administration of Customs to strengthen cooperation with relevant countries in peat trade information exchange, certification and accreditation, standard measurement and statistical information, and reduce non-tariff barriers to peat. Arrange peat customs declaration agencies in provincial capitals along the Eurasian Railway, simplify peat customs clearance conditions, formulate customs peat detection standards, and reduce misjudgment of peat quality.
At the same time, the positioning of peat as agricultural means of production is clarified, and the value-added tax in the introduction, processing and popularization of peat is exempted, so as to reduce the user cost, encourage the introduction, processing and popularization of peat resources, and promote the development of modern agriculture and the restoration of degraded environment.
Adopt various financial support means to promote the construction of peat processing industry cluster and popularization and application industry cluster, gather all kinds of factor resources, improve the added value of peat products technology, create the development source, gathering area and peat industry cluster of peat processing and emerging industries, form peat innovation growth pole and accelerate the formation of new kinetic energy for economic and social development.
According to the national conditions and market demand, we will carry out scientific and technological research, establish an all-weather peat mining technology system, greatly improve peat production capacity and reduce peat mining and transportation costs. Vigorously carry out peat processing technology and application technology innovation, improve the added value of peat products technology, and occupy the high end of peat value chain.

The gangsters robbed the foreign exchange store, the street gunfight was about to break out, the stolen money changed hands several times, and the profiteers, thieves, thieves, police, gangsters and other people of different identities met because of the "bag of money". The mantis caught the cicada, and the yellow bird was behind, and all kinds of people gathered to stage a absurd drama of "you rob me, I rob you". The structure of the multi-line narrative, the humorous atmosphere, the high-energy reversal of the plot… Director Mak Qiguang aimed the camera at the ordinary citizens and the little people at the bottom of the streets of Hong Kong, and depicted the "livelihood" of ordinary people who worked hard for money.


The easter egg at the end of the trailer has planted a new suspense for the audience. In the black and white screen, the temporary robber group is planning a plan. Mei Lantian stuttered and asked: "I don’t know how to divide the money after talking for so long." The stupid and witty tone is anti-" gangster "character, and Murong Hui is like a decision maker waving" adjourning the meeting ". The story is confusing, and the truth is difficult to distinguish. What is the truth? It needs to be released urgently. Since the official announcement of the movie "Temporary Robbery", the popularity has continued to rise. Whether it is the film’s unique temperament, absurd and humorous style, or the image of the buck-toothed bandits starring Guo Fucheng, it has refreshed the audience. They have praised "the three bandits are here" and "I haven’t seen this type of Hong Kong film for a long time". As the characters continue to reveal their characters, the story concepts are also released layer by layer, arousing the audience’s infinite curiosity and conjecture.


The main creator draws materials from ordinary people’s lives and creates sincere creations, absurd + police and bandits to create black humorous Hong Kong films


In a limited space, can there be more drama? On the group portrait poster of the "robbery in robbery" version released simultaneously by "Temporary Robbery", the bright yellow background is filled with scenes from foreign exchange shops, car repair shops and other trailers. The 10 actors are separated on the upper and lower sides of the stairs covered with small advertisements, arranged in an arc, and pointed their pistols at the previous person with interesting expressions and shapes, perfectly restoring the robbery scene of "you rob me and I rob you". The picture is very humorous and at the same time conceals clues. Ren Xianqi and Zhang Keyi are at the beginning and end of the team respectively. Murong Hui, played by Ren Xianqi, holds his head in his hands and has a terrified expression on his face. He is being threatened by the fat fork he plays; Lin Jiadong plays Ah Jiao, holding a bag with "coward" in his hand, and the toy pistol in his hand is very suitable for the scene. He is being pointed at by his wife Yilin with a gun in her pregnant belly; Bingbing hides behind Anan, the thief downstairs, the big head of the thief, the robber Mei Blue Sky, and the underworld shrimp raise their guns less closely. The police officer Jiang Sister holds the gun with both hands at the end of the team, heroic and righteous. Among them, Mei Lantian, the gangster played by Guo Fucheng, is wearing red clothes that attract the attention, carrying a bag of money and holding an AK in hand, and sunglasses can’t hide the hostility, showing domineering behavior. The key prop throughout the movie, the red taxi, is parked at the door of the repair shop, silently watching the absurd robbery that is full of fun.


The movie "Temporary Robbery" tells the story of the gangster Mei Lantian, the taxi driver Ah Jun, and the nursing home social worker Murong Hui who accidentally formed a team to rob. Three decadent middle-aged people were involved in a storm in order to track down a huge sum of money they had stolen. At the same time, the female police detective Jiang also locked the three people. You rob me, I rob you, and for a while the gangsters each have a ghost, and a bag of money actually caused a shocking robbery… Who robbed who? The creative inspiration of this film comes from the plight of the peers around director Mai Qiguang who are short of money, and relies on the insight into the current situation of ordinary people’s lives. After five years of painstakingly polishing the script, the director and team combined absurd and police elements in the creation to deconstruct a series of social issues in a dark and humorous way. Behind the absurd banter, there is also no lack of Maimai’s warmth of humanistic care.


The movie "Temporary Robbery" is produced by Er Dongsheng, directed by Mai Qiguang, starring Guo Fucheng, Lin Jiadong, Ren Xianqi, and Zhang Keyi, starring Lin Xue,,, Wang Minde, Sun Jiajun, Zengbit, Fu Jiajun, Zhang Songzhi, Jiang Zhuowen, Chen Yishen, and Wang Songyin.
