The Party is Stronger in Revolutionary Forging —— The CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core leads the new era to strictly manage the Party in an all-round way

  In the new era of China, the dawn rises and everything grows; On the new journey, the Communist Party of China (CPC) is in full bloom and high spirits.

  In the first century, the Communist Party of China (CPC) United and led the people of China to write the most magnificent epic in the history of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s new era is a glorious page, and it is also the chapter of the era that we are writing and will continue to write. A century of struggle has forged a great, glorious and correct party, and the key to reviewing the history of the party is to "see clearly why we succeeded in the past and understand how we can continue to succeed in the future." In the new era, the strict administration of the party in an all-round way has achieved the self-reconstruction of the party, and our party is more mature, confident and stronger. Reviewing and summarizing the great achievements and fresh experiences of the new era is to better focus on what we are doing and better answer the questions of the times and practice.

  History, reality and future are interlinked. Those valuable experiences accumulated after a hundred years of tempering deserve to be remembered forever and passed down from generation to generation. "Without the Communist Party of China (CPC), there would be no new China, and there would be no great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation." This is the most important historical conclusion. "The key to running China well lies in the party. The key lies in the party’s management of the party and the strict administration of the party in an all-round way." This is the most incisive and profound revelation.

  To promote high-quality development, we must give full play to the leading and safeguarding role of strictly administering the party in an all-round way.

  "Unite under the banner of the party into ‘ A hard piece of steel ’ "

  Resolutely safeguard the authority of the CPC Central Committee and centralize and unify leadership.

  Strictly administering the Party in an all-round way is a distinctive feature of the Party Central Committee governing the country with the Supreme Leader as the core, which fully embodies the characteristics of the new era and meets the requirements of the new era.

  In December 2014, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader put forward "strictly administering the Party in an all-round way" for the first time during his investigation in Jiangsu, and juxtaposed it with building a well-off society in an all-round way, deepening reforms in an all-round way, and governing the country according to law in an all-round way, forming a "four comprehensive" strategic layout. In October 2017, the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China wrote "strictly administering the Party in an all-round way" into party constitution … … Looking back at the course of struggle in the new era, strictly administering the Party in an all-round way is the key layout of the Party Central Committee in planning the "big chess game" for the cause of the party and the state, which endows the Party’s construction with new era connotation and historical mission, and guarantees the great social revolution under the guidance of the Party’s great self-revolution.

  As the world’s largest Marxist ruling party that has been in power for a long time in the most populous country, it is self-evident that it is long-term, complex and arduous to strictly manage the party in an all-round way. With the profound insight and foresight of Marxist politicians and strategists, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly pointed out that all problems existing in the Party are essentially political issues, and always insisted on politically understanding and promoting the comprehensive and strict administration of the Party, emphasizing that "the core of comprehensive and strict administration of the Party is to strengthen the Party’s leadership" and "upholding the Party’s leadership is first and foremost to uphold the centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee".

  Throughout the ages, great powers in the world have collapsed or declined, and one of the common reasons is the loss of central authority and the inability of countries to centralize and unify. The history of the Party and the history of the development of New China have repeatedly proved that it is the life of the Party to stress politics with a clear-cut stand and ensure the unity and centralization of the Party, and it is also the key for our Party to become a century-old party and create great achievements in the century.

  We must face up to the fact that due to the problems of ineffective and lax management of the Party, the phenomenon of ignoring the authority of the CPC Central Committee exists in a few party member cadres and even leading cadres to varying degrees, and some of them are still very serious. Some positions are unstable, lose their principles, vacillate and ambiguous in the face of big and big issues, and fail to maintain a high degree of consistency with the CPC Central Committee; Some are self-righteous and outspoken, publicly expressing opinions that are contrary to the spirit of the CPC Central Committee on major political issues and making irresponsible remarks about the major policies of the CPC Central Committee; Some orders can’t be done, and there are prohibitions. They discount, make choices, and make changes to the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, resulting in the deformation and failure of the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee in the implementation; Some of them are ambitious, power-hungry, and even secretly oppose the Party Central Committee.

  The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader issued a sobering warning to the whole Party: "Without the authority of the CPC Central Committee and centralized and unified leadership, strict political discipline and rules, and a good political ecology, if it becomes a loose club with numerous factions and a power field for power struggle and intrigue, it will lose its creativity, cohesion and combat effectiveness, its ruling foundation and ability, and it will be seriously divorced from the people.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee has incorporated the party’s political construction into the overall layout of the party’s construction in the new era as a fundamental and leading construction, and made it the primary task of the party’s political construction to ensure that the whole party obeys the Central Committee, safeguard the authority of the Party Central Committee and centralize and unify leadership, and unswervingly push forward the comprehensive and strict administration of the party.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader focused on the overall situation of the great rejuvenation strategy of the Chinese nation and the unprecedented changes in the world in the past century, profoundly summed up the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s ruling experience and made a series of major judgments on the nature, orientation and role of the party’s leadership. "the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership is the most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and the greatest advantage of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s system" … … These scientific expositions, as the important contents of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, have become a powerful ideological arm and scientific action guide for all party member, and have enabled the whole party, the whole army and the people of all ethnic groups in China to form an unbreakable consensus.

  The core of leadership is very important for a country and a political party. In October 2016, the Sixth Plenary Session of the Eighteenth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China formally established the core position of the Party Central Committee and the whole party. The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China wrote the core position of the Supreme Leader, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee and the whole party into party constitution. This is the common will of the whole party and the common, solemn and inevitable choice of history and people. The whole party regards "two maintenance" as the highest political principle and fundamental political rule of the party, which is more unified in thought, more United in politics and more consistent in action, and the party’s political leadership, ideological leadership, mass organization and social appeal have been significantly enhanced.

  The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued a series of major institutional arrangements, which made the overall leadership of the Party have stronger institutional binding force and higher legal effect. The amendment to the Constitution adopted at the first session of the 13th National People’s Congress put "the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership is the most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics" into the general program of the Constitution. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee listed "upholding the centralized and unified leadership of the Party" as the first of 13 obvious advantages of China’s national system and national governance system, and made arrangements for upholding and improving the Party’s leadership system and improving the Party’s scientific, democratic and legal governance levels. "Several Guidelines on Political Life within the Party under the New Situation" and "Regulations on Requests for Instructions and Reports on Major Matters in the Communist Party of China (CPC)" … … By strengthening the top-level design, the party’s leadership system has been further improved, which has provided a strong guarantee for ensuring that the party can give full play to its core role of commanding the overall situation and coordinating all parties, and ensure the unity and unity of the whole party.

  A clear-cut stand on politics is the fundamental requirement of Marxist political parties, and political discipline is the most fundamental and important discipline of the party. The CPC Central Committee has repeatedly stressed that it is necessary to strictly observe political discipline and rules, resolutely manage the "seven haves" problem, resolutely eliminate the "two-faced people" who disobey the sun, and ensure the implementation of the major policies and decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee with accurate and powerful political supervision. After the comprehensive and strict management of the Party, the political ecology within the Party has undergone fundamental changes. The whole Party has maintained a high degree of consistency with the CPC Central Committee in political stance, political direction, political principles and political road, and its political judgment, political understanding and political execution have been significantly improved. The "four consciousnesses" have become more solid, the "four self-confidences" have become more firm, and the "two safeguards" have become more conscious.

  The new era is an era of connecting the past and the future, and it is also an era full of challenges. These years since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China have been extremely unusual and extraordinary in the development of the cause of the Party and the country. The complexity and severity of the situation and environment faced by the Party, and the heaviness and arduousness of its tasks are rare in the world and history. Today, the world admires the miracle created by China’s decisive victory in building a well-off society in an all-round way and fighting poverty, marvels that China has become a "boat of life" and "boat of hope" in the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic, and laments China’s resilience and determination in resisting and countering external extreme suppression and containment. The whole party and the people of all ethnic groups in China deeply feel that when the storm strikes, the strong leadership of the Party and the authority of the CPC Central Committee are the most solid backers, and having a correct, firm and mature core is the great fortune of the country, the great fortune of the people and the great fortune of the cause!

  The vivid practice in the new era proves once again that upholding and strengthening the overall leadership of the Party, insisting that the Party should manage the Party strictly and comprehensively, and uniting the whole Party into "a hard piece of steel" can unite the people of all ethnic groups in the country, form a majestic force with one heart and one mind, and overcome all powerful enemies and all difficulties and obstacles.

  "The problem of style is fundamentally a problem of party spirit."

  Bring good traditions into a new journey and carry forward good work style in a new era.

  The style of the party is the image of the party, and it is a barometer to observe the relationship between the party and the masses and the people’s hearts. "If the Party’s style of work is correct and the people’s mood is smooth, the Party and the people can share weal and woe", which is a profound conclusion drawn by the Communist Party of China (CPC) people from generation to generation in practice.

  In the new era, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has a deep understanding of the political nature and harm of unhealthy trends, and pointed out that the "four winds" issue "fundamentally deviated from the party spirit and lost its purpose" and "let it develop … … Our party will lose its foundation, lose its blood, and lose its strength. "In the end, it will seriously damage the party’s advanced nature and purity, and seriously damage the party’s ruling foundation and ruling status." Every word is sonorous and direct, which shows the strong political consciousness and high political consciousness of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people in the new era.

  Whether going to local investigation or visiting abroad, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader takes the lead in setting an example and strictly implementing the eight central regulations. During the inspection tour in Gansu in August 2019, the general secretary and his party traveled day and night, with a journey of more than 1,000 kilometers. They tried not to let the local reception and ate five meals on the train. In order to understand the progress of poverty alleviation and solve the outstanding problems of "two worries and three guarantees" on the spot, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader used three means of transportation to dissect sparrows in Shizhu Tujia Autonomous County, Chongqing, which is deep in the mountains, after more than seven hours by plane, train and bus. … Seeking truth from facts, being pragmatic, self-denial and strict self-discipline, the General Secretary has set an example for all cadres in party member, and has also made the hearts of hundreds of millions of people closely attached to the CPC Central Committee.

  Under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, a series of practical measures and hard measures against the disadvantages of the style of sword and finger frequently attack. From curbing "waste on the tip of the tongue", stopping "corruption on wheels" and rectifying "unhealthy practices in clubs", to investigating and handling public funds for eating, drinking and traveling, and then to continuously solving formalism and bureaucracy … … Some foreign media commented that at that time, few people foresaw that the "long-standing problems" in China officialdom, such as eating and drinking with public funds and meeting the sea in Wenshan, had such obvious improvement. Nine years have passed, and the changes made by the eight central regulations to China in the new era are still deepening. The party style and political style are brand-new, the social style and people’s customs continue to improve, and the land of China is rising and people’s hearts are gathered.

  Historical experience tells us that the problem of style is the easiest to rebound. If we don’t firmly grasp it, some problems that have been initially suppressed are likely to resurface. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly stressed that "we should keep our strength, never budge, and prevent old problems from re-emerging, new problems from sprouting, and minor problems from getting bigger." ‘ Half-pull project ’ , let alone go through the motions "… … Move at the command, follow the command. Discipline inspection and supervision organs not only continue to rectify the outstanding problems such as illegal eating and drinking, illegal payment of subsidies for Tianjin, but also point to the invisible variation and makeover problems such as accepting and sending electronic red-envelope, using private cars for public support, traveling with public funds in the name of study, training, investigation and research, and "eating the boss without public funds", and always maintain perseverance, and constantly accumulate small victories for great victories.

  To win the battle to build a well-off society in an all-round way and to fight against poverty, it is even more necessary for the whole party to come up with a good style of work to ensure the final victory. Formalism and bureaucracy hinder the implementation of the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and become the enemy of the Party and the people. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has a profound insight from the political height, pointed out the ideological and interest roots behind it, and put forward that "opposing formalism should focus on solving the problem of untrue work" and "opposing bureaucracy should focus on solving the problem of not maintaining and inaction in the interests of the people", demanding uncompromising, comprehensive inspection and targeted correction. Discipline inspection and supervision organs keep a close eye on the mistakes of the Party Central Committee’s major decision-making and deployment, such as not being awed, not caring, shouting slogans, pretending, etc., and seriously investigate and deal with outstanding problems such as vague statements, making a fuss, perfunctory work, and not making efforts, and urge party member cadres to be conscientious and entrepreneurial.

  Formalism and bureaucracy, such as meeting the sea in Wenshan, too many inspections and examinations, and too many marks, have brought many troubles to grassroots cadres and dampened their enthusiasm for work. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made important instructions in this regard, and the CPC Central Committee subsequently issued a series of targeted measures to play a set of pragmatic and effective combination boxing to reduce the burden on the grassroots and empower them. All localities have taken hard verification measures from the aspects of strengthening ideological education, strictly controlling issuing papers and meetings, strengthening management supervision, improving accountability system and incentive and care mechanism, so as to untie grassroots cadres and let them devote more energy to doing practical things and seeking practical results.

  With the deepening of work style construction, the "playing style" is also constantly upgrading. Since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly expounded the concept of "three noes" and provided an important methodology for deepening the governance of work style. In practice, while strictly investigating and reporting the exposure, Party organizations at all levels actively take the case as a mirror, promote reform by taking the case as a guide, strengthen warning, improve the system and supervision, and realize the long-term effect of work style construction. At the same time, combined with the theme education of "Do not forget your initiative mind, keep in mind the mission" and the study and education of party history, it promotes party member cadres to inherit and carry forward the glorious tradition and fine work style of the party, and constantly releases the comprehensive effect of treating both the symptoms and the root causes.

  After unremitting rectification, the "four winds" problem has been effectively curbed, but it is far from the time to retreat. According to the typical cases of "four winds" recently investigated, some disciplinary actions occurred or continued after the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and some of them were cloaked in invisible variation. The responsible personnel were in important positions or even "top leaders", and showed obvious characteristics of changing from wind to corruption and integrating wind with corruption. This reminds us once again that work style construction is always on the road. The more severe and complicated the situation is, the more we should strengthen the construction of the party’s work style, inspire the spirit, inspire the fighting spirit, establish the image, win the hearts of the people, and take a new road to catch the exam.

  "Our party is a Marxist political party organized with revolutionary ideals and iron discipline."

  Ideological Party Building and Institutional Party Governing Work in the Same Direction

  The Second Plenary Session of the 19th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection made a systematic summary of the important experience of strictly administering the Party in an all-round way since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, among which "adhering to the unity of ideological party building and institutional party management" ranked first, which reflected our party’s profound grasp of the law of ruling party building. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly expounded the dialectical relationship between ideological party building and institutional party management, and proposed that "strict party management depends on education as well as institutions, and both of them should be flexible and rigid, and they should work in the same direction and at the same time". "We should make the process of strengthening institutional party management a process of strengthening ideological party building, and also make the process of strengthening institutional party management a process of strengthening institutional party management", which provides ideological guidance and action guidance for comprehensively and strictly administering the party.

  "The Long March is a great expedition of ideals and beliefs." "The suffering, twists and turns and death on the Long March have tested the ideals and beliefs of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people and proved to the world that the ideals and beliefs of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people are indestructible." On October 21, 2016, at the conference commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Red Army’s Long March, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader explained the great Long March spirit with deep affection. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary has repeatedly emphasized that ideals and beliefs are the spiritual pillar and political soul of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people, and education has guided all party member to "consciously be firm believers and faithful practitioners of the lofty ideal of communism and the common ideal of Socialism with Chinese characteristics". Communist party people’s political nature is fully demonstrated by earnest exhortation and earnest exhortation.

  The firmness of ideals and beliefs comes from the firmness of ideological theory. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that to strengthen our ideals and beliefs, we must "let the truth arm our minds, let the truth guide our ideals, and let the truth strengthen our beliefs". The CPC Central Committee has successively carried out the Party’s mass line education and practice activities, the special education of "three strictness and three realities", the study and education of "two studies and one doing" and the theme education of "Do not forget your initiative mind, bearing in mind the mission", and insisted on arming the whole Party with the Party’s innovative theory, especially the Supreme Leader’s New Era Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought, so as to thoroughly clean up the source, consolidate the foundation and cultivate the yuan ideologically.

  On the occasion of the party’s centenary birthday, the study and education of party history is in full swing in the whole party. In 2021, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader walked all the way in the vast red hot land, explaining the study of history in Fujian, emphasizing the study of history in Guangxi, advocating morality in Qinghai, and calling for the study of history in Xizang. A vivid and profound "Party History Teaching Course" has given party member cadres a comprehensive and profound political education, ideological tempering and spiritual baptism, and deeply realized that the Red regime, the new China and Socialism with Chinese characteristics are hard-won, the foundation of faith is more solid and the calcium of spirit is more abundant.

  "Stick to the truth, stick to the ideal, practice the initial intention, undertake the mission, be not afraid of sacrifice, fight bravely, be loyal to the party and live up to the people". The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader put forward and expounded the profound connotation and great significance of the 32-word great party-building spirit for the first time at the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China (CPC). As scholars have said, "Insist on truth and ideals" ranks first. These eight words reflect the characteristics of our party’s advanced thinking and firm belief, are the concentrated expression of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people’s ideals, beliefs and value pursuit, and show the party’s powerful ideological advantages.

  The light of ideals and beliefs has greatly aroused the patriotic and professional enthusiasm of the broad masses of cadres and people, and turned it into an enterprising responsibility for their own work. The film The Battle at Lake Changjin won the box office title in China’s film history. Many viewers read the power of faith from the blood and iron of the volunteers, and enhanced their ambition, backbone and confidence to be Chinese. Many young people who watched TV series The Awakeing Age spontaneously offered flowers to the graves of revolutionary martyrs Chen Yannian and Chen Qiaonian, conveying great patriotic feelings. Behind "Zhu Rong" exploring the fire, "xi he" exploring the stars day by day, and "Heaven and Earth", it is precisely the result of the determination of the vast number of astronauts to serve the country and work hard to tackle key problems, which shows their firm belief and will. Under the battle slogan of "Clear love, only for China", Chen Xiangrong, a martyr guarding the border, is the loyalty and responsibility of the border guards to protect the border and defend the country with their youth, blood and even their lives.

  No rules, no Fiona Fang. Strictly administering the Party in an all-round way requires both ideological education and institutional strictness. From "to put power into the cage of the system, we must first build a cage", to "we must formulate and improve it on the one hand and implement it on the other", and then to "strengthening the construction of laws and regulations within the party is the long-term and fundamental strategy for comprehensively and strictly administering the party", a series of important expositions by the Supreme Leader General Secretary have become the ideological weapons for governing the party by the system and by the rules in the new era. As of July 1, 2021, our party’s current effective internal laws and regulations reached 3,615, and the "four beams and eight pillars" of the internal laws and regulations system were established, forming a relatively complete internal laws and regulations system, which provided a standardized and legalized guarantee for the comprehensive and strict administration of the party.

  The vitality of laws and regulations lies in their implementation. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly stressed that it is necessary to strengthen the implementation of the system, and seriously investigate and deal with acts that are forbidden, forbidden, and disobedient, so that the iron rules can exert their strength and the ban can flourish. Take the implementation of the regulations on disciplinary action as an example. After the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee revised the regulations on disciplinary action twice, and clarified the party’s six disciplines. Party organizations at all levels earnestly fulfill their political responsibilities of strictly administering the Party in an all-round way, strengthen daily supervision, pay attention to grasping the early and the small, and govern the whole Party with strict discipline. Discipline inspection and supervision organs continue to make good use of the "four forms" to make the system "teething" and discipline "charged". The data shows that from the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China to the eve of July 1, 2021, the discipline inspection and supervision organs used the "four forms" to criticize and educate 8.834 million people, and gave 3.742 million people disciplinary sanctions, which showed a clear attitude of strict discipline and strict investigation of violations, and effectively safeguarded the authority and seriousness of laws and regulations.

  Ideological party building is a family heirloom of our party, and system construction is a long-term strategy for comprehensively and strictly administering the party. On the new journey, we will unswervingly rely on ideological and political work, rely on discipline and law system to govern the party and push forward the new great project of party building in the new era.

  "Offend thousands of people and not bear 1.4 billion"

  Anti-corruption has no choice but to advance despite difficulties.

  On New Year’s Day in 2022, the website of the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection released the 2021 Tiger Fighting Briefing. This report, which is full of points of view, has aroused widespread concern. In the whole year, 25 middle-ranking cadres were notified to be examined and investigated, involving politics and law, finance, state-owned enterprises, universities and other fields. On January 8, 2022, the website of the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection successively released the news that Zhang Yongze, Vice Chairman of the Xizang Autonomous Region Municipal Government, and Wang Bin, Party Secretary and Chairman of China Life Insurance (Group) Company, accepted the review and investigation by the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. Fighting two tigers in a row in the beginning of the year, the attitude is consistent, and the actions are consistent, which once again clearly shows that there is no turning back arrow before opening the bow and there is no rest in anti-corruption.

  Corruption is the biggest threat facing our party. Opposing corruption, building clean politics and keeping the party healthy are the distinct political positions that our party has always adhered to. In the eventful years of revolution, construction and reform, no matter how steep the external environment is, no matter how arduous the mission is, our party’s determination to resolutely fight corruption has never wavered and its position has never retreated, thus ensuring its advanced nature and purity.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has raised anti-corruption to a height that concerns people’s hearts and lives, and stressed that "the anti-corruption struggle must first be viewed politically", and has always pushed the anti-corruption struggle deeper with a strong sense of historical responsibility, deep sense of mission anxiety and tenacious will.

  In December 2012, the 18th CPC National Congress just concluded, and Li Chuncheng, former deputy secretary of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee, became the first provincial and ministerial cadre to be dismissed after the 18th CPC National Congress. "Fighting tigers", "swatting flies" and "hunting foxes" take a multi-pronged approach, and the soul-stirring high-pressure anti-corruption and iron fist anti-corruption are launched. By May, 2021, the discipline inspection and supervision organs had put on record 392 leading cadres at or above the provincial or ministerial level, 22,000 cadres at the bureau level and more than 170,000 cadres at the county level. After the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the whole country investigated and dealt with more than 390,000 issues involving people’s livelihood and infringing on the interests of the masses, and handled 359,000 people. Investigate and deal with 280,000 problems in the field of poverty alleviation and punish 188,000 people; In the "protective umbrella" against evil forces, 93,000 cases were investigated and 84,000 people were handled. Since 2014, when the international anti-corruption campaign "Skynet Action" was launched, by the eve of "July 1st" in 2021, a total of 9,165 fugitives had been recovered, and 60 "100 Hongtong personnel" had been brought to justice.

   

  Looking around the world, there are a large number of ruling parties, but few dare to fight corruption on a large scale, vigorously and persistently like our party. Some people tout the western multi-party system of taking turns to govern and "separating the three powers", and don’t believe that our party can cut the blade inward and self-destruct. Such absurd misjudgments are due to the failure to realize that the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s uncompromising insistence on anti-corruption is determined by its nature and purpose. As far as our party is concerned, anti-corruption has always been not only to punish several corrupt cadres in party member, but also not to struggle for power and exclude dissidents. It is because "the people hate all kinds of negative corruption and privileges, which are the most lethal to the flesh-and-blood ties between the party and the people." "We must do our utmost to solve the problem of negative corruption and ensure that the party always shares the same destiny with the people."

  Under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, the contest between the party and the people and corruption never stops, and it continues to develop in depth. Since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly stressed that the situation is still grim and complicated, and repeatedly warned that new situations and new features have emerged in corruption, such as the interweaving of political issues and economic issues, the interweaving of traditional corruption and new corruption, the interweaving of corruption and unhealthy trends, and the prominent corruption in the fields of finance, state-owned enterprises, politics and law, resources, etc., which has affected the implementation of the new development concept.

  In recent years, major cases of leading cadres violating discipline and law have been investigated and dealt with, which fully confirmed the scientific judgment of the CPC Central Committee. Among the "tigers" who were picked out, there were not only political and legal tigers such as Fu Zhenghua, Sun Lijun and Wang Like, but also financial tigers such as He Xingxiang and Cai Esheng, including Lai Xiaomin, the first financial giant who was executed since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, as well as state-owned tigers such as Yin Jiaxu, Luo Jiayu and Hu Wenming, and "relying on coal to eat coal". In addition to the traditional bribery and corruption, in Xiao Yi, a member of the former party group and vice chairman of Jiangxi Provincial Political Consultative Conference, there was also a report of "violating the new development concept, abusing his power to introduce and support enterprises to engage in virtual currency that does not meet the requirements of the national industrial policy ‘ Mining ’ Activity "content; Sun Lijun, the former member of the Party Committee and vice minister of the Ministry of Public Security, has seriously violated the law and discipline, which has written something like "engaging in group gangs, forming gangs, cultivating personal power, forming interest groups, and controlling key departments in groups", which has become a typical example of political corruption … … Although the anti-corruption struggle has won an overwhelming victory and been consolidated in an all-round way, its long-term, complex and arduous nature cannot be underestimated at all, and we must always adhere to the strict main tone.Keep the overwhelming force always there and unswervingly carry out the anti-corruption struggle to the end.

  Punishment is to cure. In January, 2020, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly pointed out at the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection that it is not only the basic policy of the anti-corruption struggle, but also an important strategy for comprehensively and strictly administering the Party in the new era to promote the integration of corruption, corruption and non-corruption. At the Fifth Plenary Session of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection held at the beginning of last year, the integration of "three noes" rose to the level of strategic objectives, and its position in the party and state governance system continued to improve. In practice, while taking strict words as the first priority and imposing high-pressure punishment, we have deepened the reform of discipline inspection and supervision system, improved the supervision system of the Party and the State, promoted the integration of various kinds of supervision, and at the same time, relying on warning education and centralized education within the Party, guided the broad masses of party member cadres to tighten their discipline and improve their ideological consciousness, so as to realize the integration of punishment, restraint and awareness-raising, and promote the integration of "three noes" to achieve more institutional achievements and greater governance results.

  Continue to be brilliant for a hundred years and aim at great achievements in the future. Stepping on a new road to catch the exam, there are infinitely bright prospects ahead, as well as various risk tests and even unimaginable waves.

Dong Liang, a 29-year-old boy, is a volunteer and often participates in love porridge activities. In July this year, his parents in Shaanxi came to Luoyang to see him. Moved by his son’s behavior, they took part in activities with him and became the backbone of the team. In the early morning of the same day, the three of them cooked porridge together and then went to Peony Square to serve porridge with more than a dozen other volunteers.


Wang Junli, 39, is a security guard in a hospital in our city. In March of this year, when he sent his children to study near Peony Square, he did not hesitate to join the team after seeing the love porridge activity. In order to get up early every Wednesday to cook porridge, he deliberately changed shifts with his colleagues. The day before, he had to work 24 hours in a row.


Around 8: 10, volunteers took off their aprons and vests, some hurried to work, and some went back to clean with pots and spoons … "As long as there is a citizen to drink, we will continue to stick to it." Volunteer Hu Yiguang said.


What is given out is love, and what is taken back is touching. This team, named Ren Aixin Stack Luoyang Peony Stack, was founded by more than ten caring people in Luoyang, including Zhang Haoting, and has now grown to more than 200 people. Such a scene has been staged since the team was established on January 30 this year, and it is like this every day. The venue for cooking porridge is provided free of charge by Love Hotel, and the material expenses are donated by volunteers.


Recently, volunteers began to plan new love projects. They take the family as a unit, and each family donates 50 yuan every month. The charity money raised will be used to help orphans and disabled children who need medical assistance. Now, 70 families have joined this team and are trying to find orphans and disabled children who need help.


A bowl of love porridge warms the cold winter. In the early morning, while we were still asleep, many people got up and worked silently to prepare for our trip and the awakening of this city. They braved the cold and even the snow. At the same time, they also got up with volunteers from Love Stack Luoyang Peony Stack. They used bowls of hot porridge to warm people who got up early in the cold winter and warm the society. Although a bowl of porridge is small, it drives the society to be good. Let’s do it here and say thank you to all the volunteers in Luoyang Peony Stack.

Improve the quality of law enforcement and standardize law enforcement behavior

In order to explore the establishment of the performance evaluation system of administrative punishment, improve the quality and efficiency of urban management law enforcement, and standardize the administrative law enforcement behavior of law enforcement members, Chongqing recently issued the Interim Measures for the Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Urban Management Law Enforcement of Chongqing Urban Management Comprehensive Administrative Law Enforcement Corps (hereinafter referred to as the "Evaluation Measures"), which requires compliance with laws and regulations, objectivity and fairness, seeking truth from facts, highlighting key points, focusing on performance, supervision and restraint, incentive and guarantee, hierarchical supervision and self-supervision.

Highlight 1: Set up a leading group for law enforcement effectiveness evaluation.

The "Evaluation Method" clarifies that the Corps should set up a leading group for the evaluation of law enforcement effectiveness, with the main leaders of the Corps as the team leader, the deputy team leader in charge of the Legal Department as the executive deputy team leader, and other members of the team as the deputy team leader. The main leaders of the General Department of the Corps, the Political Department (discipline inspection room), the Legal Department, the municipal public facilities law enforcement detachment, the city landscaping law enforcement detachment, and the urban illegal building law enforcement detachment are members. The leading group has an office in the Legal Affairs Department of the Corps, which is responsible for daily work.

The Legal Affairs Department of the Corps is responsible for coordinating, organizing and implementing the evaluation of law enforcement effectiveness, and putting forward suggestions on the results of the annual evaluation of law enforcement effectiveness. Each law enforcement detachment of the Corps is responsible for carrying out internal self-evaluation and supervision in accordance with the "Evaluation Measures" and providing basic data and information in the annual law enforcement effectiveness evaluation. The evaluation of law enforcement effectiveness is mainly based on verifying the basic data, and when necessary, it can investigate and verify the relevant situation to the law enforcement detachment and law enforcement personnel. The evaluation results of law enforcement effectiveness are suggested to be submitted to the chief captain’s office for deliberation, and the annual report on the evaluation results of law enforcement effectiveness will be released after deliberation and approval.

In addition, in order to ensure objectivity and fairness, the "Evaluation Measures" require that the evaluation results of law enforcement effectiveness should be informed to the evaluated law enforcement detachment. If the evaluated law enforcement detachment has any objection, it shall feedback the opinions to the Legal Affairs Department of the Corps within 5 working days. The Legal Affairs Department of the Corps shall review the evaluation results and suggestions, and make corrections in time if there are any irregularities.

Highlight 2: Set up "7+22" evaluation index.

The "Evaluation Measures" set up seven types of law enforcement efficiency evaluation indicators, such as law enforcement case handling, law enforcement action, law enforcement inspection, law enforcement inspection, handling of letters and visits, and file review, with a full score of 100 points. Among them, the evaluation index categories of municipal public facilities law enforcement detachment and city landscaping law enforcement detachment are law enforcement case handling, law enforcement action, law enforcement inspection, law enforcement inspection, handling of letters and visits and complaints, file evaluation, and implementation of the law popularization responsibility system; The evaluation index categories of urban illegal construction law enforcement detachment are law enforcement cases, law enforcement actions, law enforcement inspections, letters and visits, complaints and reports, file evaluation, and the implementation of the legal responsibility system.

At the same time, combined with the actual dynamics, the number of cases handled, the settlement rate, and the performance rate of administrative punishment authority were formulated, and 22 annual evaluation indicators were set. For example, in terms of bonus points, it is stipulated that the Municipal Urban Management Bureau or other municipal departments should be promoted to issue targeted and innovative normative documents on urban management law enforcement or relevant documents on urban governance, and each item should be added with 1 point; Promote the municipal government or the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development to issue targeted and innovative normative documents on urban management law enforcement or relevant documents on urban governance, and add 3 points for each piece. In terms of reduction of sub-items, 1 point will be deducted for each case that does not meet the requirements of the basic project of the Guide for the Evaluation and Search of Administrative Punishment Files of Housing and Urban-Rural Construction System, and 1 point will be deducted for each uncivilized law enforcement behavior.

Highlight 3: nine situations of "one-vote veto" are clarified.

The "Evaluation Measures" stipulates that if each law enforcement detachment of the Corps has one of nine situations, the evaluation result will be directly determined as substandard, and the person in charge of the law enforcement detachment and relevant responsible personnel will be interviewed.

These nine situations include: finding clues about illegal acts, meeting the conditions for filing a case, and not filing a case for investigation without justifiable reasons; Receiving letters and visits and complaints, refusing to accept matters within the scope of statutory duties or failing to handle and correct the problems according to law; Altering, concealing, forging, stealing evidence materials or instigating, supporting or instructing others to commit perjury, which affects the fair handling of administrative punishment cases; The people’s court or the administrative reconsideration organ makes a judgment or decision to revoke or partially revoke, change or confirm the violation of the law; Being determined by the people’s court or the administrative reconsideration organ as failing to perform the statutory duties, and the judgment or decision is fulfilled within a certain period of time; Being decided by the administrative organ at a higher level to revoke the specific law enforcement act or order it to perform its statutory duties; Due to the fault of law enforcement, resulting in state compensation; Law enforcement officers have been given disciplinary sanctions or investigated for criminal responsibility for law enforcement faults, violations of discipline and law; Due to work mistakes or law enforcement mistakes, serious law enforcement conflicts or negative public opinion events have occurred, resulting in adverse social impacts.

Highlight 4: Set up a fault-tolerant mechanism for four situations.

Considering some special circumstances, the "Evaluation Measures" set up a fault-tolerant mechanism to guide law enforcement team members to be realistic and pragmatic, and to create achievements that can stand the test of practice.

The "Evaluation Measures" clarify that if one of the four situations occurs in each law enforcement detachment of the Corps, no points will be deducted, including those that are controversial due to unclear laws, regulations and rules; Due to the fault of the administrative counterpart or due to unpredictable and irresistible reasons, the law enforcement fault occurs; Having fulfilled the obligation of reasonable inspection, investigation and review, but the law enforcement fault has occurred due to the pre-behavior errors such as inspection, detection, expert conclusion and assistance in identification; Due to the limitation of objective conditions such as science and technology, supervision means, etc., the problems can not be found or the law enforcement mistakes can not be determined.

Highlight 5: further strengthen the combination of examination and use

Only by combining the assessment results with training and education, management and supervision, encouragement and restraint, accountability and accountability, promotion and demotion, and treating mediocrity and laziness can the enthusiasm, initiative and creativity of party member cadres be mobilized to the maximum extent.

The "Evaluation Method" defines three grades of evaluation results: excellent, up to standard and not up to standard. Among them, those who score more than 90 points are excellent grades, those who score more than 60 points but less than 90 points are up to standard grades, and those who score less than 60 points are not up to standard.

Among them, the evaluation result of law enforcement effectiveness is excellent, and the person in charge of law enforcement detachment and relevant law enforcement personnel are given priority in the evaluation. If the evaluation result of law enforcement efficiency is not up to standard, the person in charge of the law enforcement detachment shall be disqualified from the annual assessment and evaluation, and the corps shall admonish the person in charge of the law enforcement detachment; If the evaluation results of law enforcement effectiveness are not up to standard for two consecutive years, the responsible person of the law enforcement detachment shall be transferred from his post according to the cadre management authority.

CCTV News:December 29, 2018, November 23 of the lunar calendar. One day later, that is, the New Year’s Day holiday, 2019 came quietly.

In 2018, we are busy on the road and strive for the future.

Li Yuanmin: "Jamila" in the hearts of villagers

one

The word "Jamila" means warm-hearted in Uighur. Li Yuanmin, who mentioned "Jamila" in Gaimai Village, Yining County, Xinjiang, went up to the elderly and down to the children, and everyone knew him. How did a Han girl from Shandong come to Gaimai Village, Yining County, Xinjiang, win the respect of local people?

"Buy and buy, no one will come!" It used to be a widely circulated sentence in Yazi Town, Alakazam, Yining County, Xinjiang. Because it is poor here, the village "two committees" team is weak, the economic development is slow, and the people’s hearts are scattered. When Li Yuanmin took over as the deputy director of the village committee in 2010, the villagers were not optimistic.

Li Yuanmin started with a strong team, and recommended the formation of a team of village cadres through competition and assessment, so that young cadres with ideas and enthusiasm could take office. When she was on duty, she smashed the table where the cadres on duty drank and played cards, and successively retired a number of illegal village cadres. The incident of "smashing wine bottles" and her "violent temper" spread like wildfire.

To get rich, build roads first. Li Yuanmin led the villagers to build roads, and after several years of hard work, Gaimai Village, which was once messy and poor, gave new vitality. In July last year, a flood broke out in Jirigelang River in Yining County, Xinjiang, which destroyed the bridge where villagers traveled on both sides of the river. In order to grab the progress, Li Yuanmin led the village cadres to rush to the front line. Under the influence of Li Yuanmin, the villagers also participated in it and worked together to build the bridge.

Now, Gaimai Village has begun to develop courtyard economy, and the villagers have established cattle and chicken cooperatives, and the per capita income has increased from 6,500 yuan in 2010 to 12,400 yuan now.

Zheng Wentai: Indonesia’s Returned Overseas Chinese Rebuild "Tropical Rainforest Gene Bank" in 26 Years

2

A person, in 25 years, has invested hundreds of millions of RMB in succession to build a plant kingdom of 10,000 mu, for nothing but a "green dream" for himself.

Zheng Wentai, a 73-year-old Indonesian returned overseas Chinese, has invested hundreds of millions of RMB since 1992 to build a plant kingdom of 10,000 mu in Xinglong Overseas Chinese Farm in Wanning City, Hainan Province.

At that time, Zheng Wentai sold his assets one after another in exchange for hundreds of millions of yuan of "green cause" funds, while entering the mountains to find species, transplant and breed, and reclaim land for afforestation. At that time, it was the real estate development boom in Hainan. A successful overseas Chinese businessman changed into a gardener’s outfit and plunged into the barren hills, which made his relatives and friends unable to understand.

Zheng Wentai persisted, replanting from the foot of the mountain with low wind and strong drought resistance, attacking cities and pulling out villages, restoring the original ecological structure step by step, saving and preserving tropical rainforest species, and leaving a "tropical plant gene bank" for future generations.

Now Xinglong Tropical Garden has expanded to about 12,000 mu, and there are 65 species of rare and endangered plants. Many endemic tree species and rare and endangered plants, such as Cycas hainanensis, Alsophila spinulosa, Joan Brown, Dracaena hainanensis, Dalbergia odorifera, Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae Viride and Bambusa longifolia, were collected by Zheng Wentai from home and abroad after several twists and turns, and were transplanted into the garden. Xinglong Tropical Garden has become a tropical ecological garden integrating sightseeing, leisure and holiday, popular science education and other functions, and has been recognized by the state as one of the four environmental ecological demonstration education bases and a species gene bank.

Cui Jiuxiu: "Little Cui Guli" in the community

2

"Doing something meaningful" is Cui Jiuxiu’s dream.

At the age of 25, she is a member of the Party Committee of Tokzak Town, Shufu County, Xinjiang, and the first secretary of Saybagh Community. Cui Jiuxiu’s hometown is in Rizhao, Shandong Province. After graduating from college, she chose to work here. Now she can speak fluent Uighur, and the community residents affectionately call her "Little Cui Guli".

Four years ago, Cui Jiuxiu just graduated from college and came to Shufu County. At first, he was not used to language or eating habits.

In order to integrate into the new environment more quickly, Cui Jiuxiu first learned Uighur, and the communication was smooth. Community residents are willing to talk to her if they have any thoughts.

In 2015, several elder sisters in the community found Cui Jiuxiu and told her that she wanted to run a textile cooperative. Cui Jiuxiu went to the county to apply for sewing machines and spare houses for them, helped them to start a small clothing processing cooperative, and registered the clothing brand "Kashgar in Xinjiang". Now the cooperative has moved into a new factory, recruited more than 20 employees, and provided technical training for more than 50 women from low-income families.

In the community, Cui Jiuxiu also met a Uighur "mother", a 76-year-old Tuni sahan. The old man’s daughter is disabled and can’t work, and his wife is paralyzed in bed all the year round. Cui Jiuxiu helped the old man solve many practical difficulties.

"In fact, I didn’t do anything particularly big. I just helped her solve the small things within her power. I was very touched that they were so grateful to me. It is this kind of touch that brings me closer to the local residents. I understand a truth: only through little things can we get closer to the people of all ethnic groups. This is the most important feeling for me to do a good job at the grassroots level. " Cui Jiuxiu said.

Zhang Liming: Innovative Blue-collar "Maker"

three

He has been rooted in the front line of power emergency repair for 31 years, from a grass-roots power worker to an outstanding representative of "learning, knowledge-based and innovative" industrial workers in the new era. He is Zhang Liming, the "blue-collar craftsman" of Tianjin Binhai Power Supply Company of State Grid.

Zhang Liming is the squad leader of the distribution emergency repair class of Tianjin Binhai Power Supply Company of State Grid. He has worked for 31 years and has patrolled more than 80,000 kilometers. In the emergency repair of power supply failure caused by a heavy rainstorm, Zhang Liming led the emergency repair team, and 81 emergency repairs were completed overnight, which enabled many enterprises and residents to quickly resume power use.

In 2011, an innovation studio was established in Zhang Liming. Zhang Liming, who only has a secondary school education, led the workers’ team to realize more than 200 technological innovations, which translated into economic benefits of more than 100 million yuan. At the just-concluded Second World Intelligence Conference, he explained the live working robot invented by himself, which can replace manual work and carry out high-risk, high-intensity and high-altitude live working.

Zhang Liming is also the captain of the Dawn Communist party member Service Team, who is on call 24 hours a day, from installing energy-saving light bulbs to solving the problem of black corridors in old buildings to setting up a love fund to help the elderly, the sick and the disabled. Zhang Liming often said that volunteering, though not his job, is closely linked with the initial intention and mission of Communist party member.

Xu Wentao: The "Spiritual Long March" of the University Interpreter

five

"The soldiers and horses have not moved, and the food and grass go first." In the history of our army, although the logistics forces did not take the lead, they built a bridge of material supply with flesh and blood to ensure the frontline soldiers’ food, clothing, housing and transportation.

In order not to let these eventful years be forgotten. In 2004, Xu Wentao volunteered to build the shenyang military area command Logistics History Museum. After that, Xu Wentao had no holidays. He consulted a lot of materials, visited veteran cadres, wrote an exhibition outline and collected cultural relics. After more than 600 days and nights of fighting, more than 3,000 square meters of exhibition halls were built, with more than 2,000 pictures of Zhang Zhengui and nearly 1,000 cultural relics.

After the opening of the History Museum, Xu Wentao became a volunteer commentator again. No matter how many visitors there are, he insists on explaining. For more than ten years, the Logistics History Museum has received nearly 200,000 visitors. Xu Wentao said that he would stick to it as long as his body allowed.

In Xu Wentao’s view, it is more valuable to keep this history well: "History can enlighten, shock and give strength. A military history museum is a school, a cultural relic is a story, and a character is a monument. " (Text/Xiao Xiaodi Chenchen)

Publish a 100-page report to short the Indian Adani Group, and Hindenburg, an emerging short-selling institution in the United States, has a big head!

Source: Global Times
[Special correspondent of Global Times in the United States Zheng Ke Special correspondent of Global Times Yuan Ziyou Ye Man] The research on Hindenburg, an emerging short-selling institution in the United States, has caused an uproar in the capital market recently. This small company, which was established only six years ago, plunged gautam Adani, the richest man in Asia, into a quagmire, and foreign capital withdrew from the Indian stock market one after another, which made Indian Prime Minister Modi heckled by the opposition. The company named after the "air crash" dealt a heavy blow to the Indian economy with a short report.
Adani data map
Adani Group may be attacked by organized short selling again.
Singapore’s Lianhe Zaobao reported on the 5th that Adani, the richest man in Asia and chairman of Adani Group, was recently surrounded by the hungry shark-like market short selling force like a bloody whale. In a 100-page report, Hindenburg Research described the rapid rise of Adani Group as "the biggest scam in the history of enterprises".
According to National Public Radio, the market value of Adani Group has evaporated by more than 100 billion US dollars in just 10 days, and the bond price of the group has fallen to the level of junk debt. Adani’s personal net worth has also shrunk by nearly $50 billion, and the Indian tycoon who was once richer than Warren Buffett and Bill Gates has since lost the title of "Asia’s richest man".
The crisis of Adani Group is still fermenting. Moody’s, an international rating agency, warned on the 3rd that the plunge in share prices may hit the financing capacity of Adani Group. On the other hand, Standard & Poor’s downgraded the ratings of two listed companies of Adani Group from stable to negative because of the risk of rising financing costs and decreasing financing channels. The Indian Stock Exchange also suspended the stock trading of five listed companies in Adani.
Lianhe Zaobao said that as of the 5th, Adani was still unable to fully respond and explain all the accusations against his group. Now Credit Suisse has stopped accepting Adani’s bonds as collateral, and the Norwegian Petroleum Fund has also cut its stake in Adani. Many market analysts have predicted on various platforms that there will be organized short selling attacks in the market in the short term, once again targeting the enterprises of Adani Group.
The crisis of Adani Group also affected Indian politics, and the close relationship between Adani and Modi made the Indian government questioned. Reuters reported on the 4th that two Indian government officials revealed that the Indian Ministry of Enterprise Affairs had begun a preliminary review of the financial statements and other regulatory documents submitted by Adani Group for many years. On the 4th, the Indian Securities and Exchange Commission (SEBI) issued its first statement on this matter, saying that "an abnormal change in the stock price of a commercial group was observed". The market regulator also said that if any information comes to its attention, it will review it and take "appropriate action".
CNN reported that the crisis of Adani Group cast a cloud over Indian enterprises. The World Bank predicted last month that India’s economic growth will be the strongest among the major economies in 2023. However, after the release of the Hindenburg Research Report, foreign capital is accelerating its withdrawal from the Indian stock market. Chowdhury, research director of Stoxbox, an Indian stockbroker, said that the crisis of Adani Group will bring a series of troubles, and the "Indian story" is not attractive to foreign investors now.
Hindenburg research was unknown six years ago.
Hindenburg Research, the driving force behind the Adani Group crisis, is a small short-selling research institution in the United States. According to The Times of India, the founder of this institution, Nathan Anderson, lived in a small apartment in Manhattan six years ago. Anderson has rich work experience. After graduating from the University of Connecticut, he was first employed by a data company to deal with investment management companies, and then he worked as an ambulance driver in Israel for some time. In 2017, Anderson founded Hindenburg Studies in new york. The name "Hindenburg Research" comes from the airship "Hindenburg" which crashed over New Jersey in 1937. "We regard Hindenburg as a microcosm of man-made disasters that can be completely avoided," the company’s website reads. "We look for similar man-made disasters in the market and expose their evil deeds before they lure more unsuspecting victims." The agency focuses on the analysis of stocks and derivatives, aiming to find "man-made disasters" such as accounting irregularities, poor management and undisclosed related party transactions.
Although it has not been established for a long time, this young institution has made remarkable achievements in short selling in the past. According to Bloomberg statistics, since 2020, Hindenburg Research has published short-selling reports on about 30 companies, and the share prices of these companies have dropped by about 15% on average the day after the report was released, and by 26% on average six months later.
In September, 2020, Hindenburg made a name for itself by carrying out a precise attack on Nikola, a hot electric truck manufacturer at that time. According to the report of Reuters, Hindenburg research claims that Nikola cheated and misled investors in technology development. A promotional video released by Nikola shows its electric truck galloping on the highway, but a survey conducted by Hindenburg Research shows that the truck was actually towed to a hillside, and then Nikola filmed it sliding down the mountain. In addition, Hindenburg Research also collected a lot of evidence such as telephone recordings, short messages, emails and photos, accusing Nikola of making dozens of false statements about semi-trailer trucks, battery technology, hydrogen production and other aspects, calling the company a "sea of lies". After the short-selling report was published, public opinion was in an uproar, and the US Department of Justice and securities regulators followed up the investigation. The founder of Nikola was finally convicted of fraud and the company’s share price plummeted by 94%. In March, 2021, Hindenburg Research accused Lordstown, an electric vehicle manufacturer, of forging orders and misleading investors in terms of production capacity. The company’s market value once exceeded $5 billion, but now it has shrunk to less than $260 million, and its stock plunged more than 90% after the Hindenburg research short report was released.
Hindenburg Research also intervened in Musk’s acquisition of Twitter. After Hindenburg Research announced shorting Twitter, Twitter’s share price dropped from $49.80 to $37.39, and then Anderson announced that he would close his short position. In mid-July last year, when Twitter’s share price was near the low point, Hindenburg Research announced that it would switch to multi-tweeting, and Twitter’s share price rose by about 8%.
Those "muddy waters" in America
In addition to the emerging short-selling Hindenburg research, famous American short-selling institutions also include Muddy Waters, Citron Research, Melvin Capital, etc. These short-selling institutions disclose the problems of some listed companies that are overvalued or have fraudulent behaviors by issuing short-selling reports, which hit the stock prices of related companies, while short-selling institutions make profits by borrowing bonds to short. Some people think that short-selling institutions are "scavengers" in the financial market, exposing scandals of listed companies to avoid investors being cut off, but some institutions will also maliciously short for profit.
Brock, the founder of Muddy Water Company, which was established in 2010, worked in Shanghai for many years. The company’s name "Muddy Water" comes from the idiom "Fish in Muddy Water", which is intended to find out companies that are faked in the muddy water of capital, and also make profits by muddling the water of capital and shorting. The main target of Brock’s short selling is Asian companies, and China Stock Exchange is its key target. In the past ten years, Muddy Waters Company has frequently exposed its sword to China Stock Exchange. Many China companies have been attacked by Muddy Waters, and some companies have been forced to delist from the market. However, with the more frequent short-selling reports of Muddy Water Company, some media think that it is more and more like an indiscriminate attack on China Stock Exchange.
Lefort, who founded Citron Research, was called "the bounty hunter of Wall Street" by The New York Times. The agency has "attacked" 20 China companies, of which 16 have seen their share prices fall. Lefort also tried to short the American company "Game Station", but was collectively countered by retail investors, which triggered short-term short selling, and Lefort lost 100%. In January 2021, Lefort had to announce that it would stop short-selling research.

After working in Guangzhou Yixiang Chemical Research Institute, Guangzhou Yagaoli, Guangzhou Baoshengtang and other enterprises, in 2006, Leng Qunying established Bawei Cosmetics Co., Ltd. in Baiyun District, Guangzhou.

The company’s main business is OEM cosmetics (ODM mode). In 2015, Bawei was officially changed into a joint stock company, and the next year, it was listed on the New Third Board, which was the only representative of nearly 1,000 cosmetics foundries in Guangzhou Baiyun who successfully listed the New Third Board.

Nowadays, Bawei has made multi-dimensional innovation on the traditional ODM model, and has grown into a one-stop service provider that can monopolize brand product planning, formula research and development, large-scale production and efficacy testing.

Bawei’s growth history is the epitome of the growth of the entire cosmetics OEM industry. With the change of channels and the rise of e-commerce, the development of beauty cosmetics not only drives the growth of brands, but also the growth of OEM industry.

Looking back at the beginning when foreign brands entered the China market, KA (General Store) and CS (Daily Chemical Store) were the main sales channels, and beauty chain stores began to slowly penetrate into the beauty retail market in China. At the beginning of this century, Hong Kong Wanning, French Sephora and other chain retailers entered the mainland of China and expanded rapidly. At the same time, the e-commerce platform gradually rose, and the combination of e-commerce and entities urged the transformation of traditional brands. Today, various e-commerce platforms have accelerated the online development of the beauty industry, forming various channels such as C2C, B2C, and self-operated online shopping malls.

According to Euromonitor data, online sales of cosmetics and skin care products have reached 54.3% and 41% respectively. Especially when the epidemic situation leads to poor offline channels, the contribution of online channels increases more obviously. Online has gradually become dominant, and it has also spawned more cutting-edge brands on the main line, and traditional brands are gradually transforming to online.

In the 2010 s, the online and offline parallel channel model promoted the rapid development of the foundry industry. From the offline perspective, the brand of CS channel has expanded in magnitude, and the demand for OEM has surged; From the online point of view, asset-light strategy, an emerging brand promoted by e-commerce, has also become the first choice. After online e-commerce has become the mainstream channel, the emerging new brands have pushed the demand for cosmetics OEM to the peak. After more than ten years of development, China’s cosmetics OEM industry tends to be mature, and the number of licensed cosmetics manufacturers has increased from 4,542 in 2015 to 5,512 in 2022.

On the whole, the cosmetics OEM industry has maintained a relatively scattered competitive situation for many years. Although several large-scale leading enterprises have been born, their market share is small, and most of the market share is still in the hands of small and medium-sized factories.

There are many OEM enterprises, but the pattern is quietly changing.

On July 1, 2022, the "Quality Management Standards for Cosmetic Production" and the "Inspection Points and Judgment Principles for Quality Management Standards for Cosmetic Production" were officially implemented; On October 1st, the Measures for the Monitoring and Management of Adverse Cosmetic Reactions was formally implemented.

The new regulations not only make specific provisions on hardware such as production equipment, production workshops and water standards of cosmetics production enterprises, but also require enterprises to keep samples of key raw materials and products, so as to achieve "traceability of all activities".

According to the incomplete statistics of Cosmetics Watch, in 2022, a total of over 420,000 cosmetics in China were cancelled for not meeting the requirements of the new regulations.

Hundreds of billions of industries are mixed, which not only shows that the threshold of cosmetics production is relatively low, but also indicates that the beauty OEM has reached a critical moment when it has to be transformed.

Due to the stricter regulations, the entry threshold of the cosmetics industry is constantly improving, and the responsibility for production lies with people, which makes many small brands in the initial stage choose more large-scale OEM enterprises. However, in fact, the survival rate of new brands is low, which reduces the customer stability of OEM enterprises. OEM enterprises need to constantly develop new customers to keep their performance growing.

Changes in the market have also made "big customers and small orders" the norm. Brands that have developed to a certain level will form their own supply chain system, and large enterprises that have not built their own supply chain will not put their eggs in the same basket, but hand over their products to different foundries for production, reducing risks.

Cosmeesh, the super leader, is the first Korean cosmetic ODM company to enter the China market. Ten years ago, TOP 20 among thousands of customers of Smears could contribute 80% of the performance, but now 40% of customers can contribute 80% of the performance. In the past, the order size of the largest customer could exceed 1 billion yuan, but now, the order size of the largest customer has dropped below 500 million yuan.

As far as the consumer market is concerned, consumers’ knowledge of science and technology is by going up one flight of stairs, and their knowledge of beauty cosmetics has changed from "looking for big names" to the emphasis on efficacy and raw materials. This also forces excellent brand customers to move closer to OEM with brand effect, quick response, excellent quality and outstanding product differentiation.

In the face of stricter regulatory situation and further upgrading of consumers’ cognition, the beauty factory has accelerated the reshuffle, and the Matthew effect has become more and more prominent. At the same time of brand involution, OEM enterprises are also reconstructing scientific research system, service system and product development logic, and changing from "serving brand" to "serving consumers with brand".

02 cooperation to the sea, the upstream factory is strong.

At the beginning of the rise of e-commerce, ultra-short new cycle, ultra-low product prices, coupled with overwhelming online marketing, a cutting-edge brand with small volume and light assets can quickly gain a foothold in the market.

Nowadays, the competition of domestic beauty cosmetics is fierce, the product homogeneity is serious, the low-price competition and the marketing cost are pushing up, and all kinds of problems have become obstacles to the long-term development of the brand. This is a headache for both brands and foundries. Under this development trend, a number of beauty brands have turned their attention to overseas and looked for increments in overseas markets.

Among the overseas brands, some brands choose to be deeply tied with OEM companies, and go to the world together to find the increment, such as Bawei and Skintific, Meishang Manufacturing and FOCALLURE, Sanhao Technology and Y.O.U

Southeast Asia is the preferred destination for these beauty brands. Both friendly trade policies and booming e-commerce have paved the way for domestic products to go to sea in Southeast Asia. In addition, the low market cost in Southeast Asia makes it relatively easy to copy experience and expand business, which is also a major reason for Nanyang’s entrepreneurship under brand selection.

From "OEM" to "brand quality", the cosmetics foundry that has grown into a one-stop solution provider has laid a solid foundation for new brands to go to sea.

FOCALLURE is a domestic beauty brand that went to Southeast Asia earlier. It mainly promotes lip gloss, eye shadow and beauty tools, and is very popular among urban women aged 25-36. For cutting-edge brands such as FOCALLURE, which have some experience in e-commerce operation in China, just copying their own homework can achieve good results in the Southeast Asian market. Its success has inspired many latecomers to March into Southeast Asia, such as Skintific and SACE LADY.

FOCALLURE worked as a foreign trade factory for overseas cosmetics in 2013-2016. In the process, she was exposed to a lot of flexible supply chains of beauty products and a large amount of overseas beauty data. Its own strong supply chain advantages and strong cooperation with Meishang Manufacturing make FOCALLURE form a mature flexible supply chain system.

It is reported that the total SKU of FOCALLURE is as high as 6,000. At present, there are more than 400 products on sale in its Shopee store, including more than 50 lip makeup products, each with more than 10 color numbers, and some hot-selling products have as many as 30 color numbers.

The advantage of the supply chain is not only to help the rapid iteration of products, but also to reduce costs to the extreme and provide cost-effective products. Compared with the price of L ‘Oré al cosmetics of 7-15 dollars, the price of the best-selling items in Southeast Asia is no more than 3 dollars, and the high cost performance is an important factor for the brand to rapidly produce fission effect in some countries with low per capita GDP in Southeast Asia.

In addition, the updated and iterated OEM enterprises also have certain technical ability advantages, which can provide the brand with one-stop service from research and development to product testing to product listing.

Take Bawei shares as an example. In the first half of 2023, the company invested 89.1578 million yuan in R&D, accounting for 6.36% of its operating income. By the end of June 2023, the company and its subsidiaries had 129 patented technologies, including 112 invention patents. The company independently developed more than 6,000 cosmetic formulas. In addition, Bawei has the qualification of human efficacy testing, and can continuously test the quality and efficacy of products from the research and development of product formulas. After the formulation of new products is completed, efficacy evaluation and testing can be carried out simultaneously without external inspection.

With the all-round help of foundry enterprises, the new brand can deliver the most cost-effective products that best match the needs of local users to all parts of the world, and then quickly cut into the market through localized play, layout multiple channels and occupy market share.

03 conclusion

After iteration, the cosmetics foundries upgraded by "Zhizao" have occupied a very important position in all aspects of brand building, and the mode of brand+foundry cooperation in the sea is no longer strange.

In 2022, HEBE BEAUTY and the foundry company Sanhao Technology announced a joint venture in Indonesia. Among them, HEBE BEAUTY is a domestic beauty product in Southeast Asia, with sub-brands such as Y.O.U and Glamfix. This new combination has also upgraded the mode of brand and foundry going out to sea hand in hand.

In fact, in the upsurge of going to sea, the foundry has always been the first batch.

As early as 2017, Guangdong Sanhao Technology Co., Ltd. officially put into production in the garden-style factory in Indonesia, providing OEM production of cosmetics for the Southeast Asian market; In June 2019, Sanhao Technology established a factory in Australia to develop a series of natural ingredients products.

In addition, Bei Hao Group also established a company in France in 2017. The whole workshop was built according to the standards of pharmaceutical companies, with an independent technology research and development team, focusing on mask production.

A similar example is Northbell, which established the Northbell Korea Research Institute in 2016, and also established long-term strategic cooperation with world-renowned raw material suppliers. It is reported that the daily production capacity of Northbell mask has reached 6.5 million pieces, and its products are exported to more than 40 countries and regions around the world.

Under the background of the factory’s "intellectual creation" upgrade, the active attempt and layout of the cosmetics foundry will inevitably inject new energy into the internationalization of China’s cosmetics industry.

In the future, the binding of brands and foundries will be deeper, and this cooperation mode will be further upgraded.

Directly hit the new domestic crime film | After Broken Bridge, there will be more fierce!

Special feature of 1905 film network The summer war in 2022 is coming to an end, and two domestic crime films released during the period have attracted widespread attention:Detective warsThe box office has exceeded 700 million, and it has won the fourth place in the summer file and the first place in the annual Hong Kong film.Broken bridgeOver 200 million, become a director.Li YuUp to now, it is the highest box office.



There are also shortcomings in achievements. It is also a Hong Kong-made crime film, and Detective Wars has not surpassed it.Shock Wave 2The word-of-mouth ceiling of the box office and the "loophole" in the story of Broken Bridge have become a major factor in the decline of the box office trend of the film.The audience has always had a high demand for crime movies. After Detective Wars and Broken Bridge, more high-quality domestic crime movies are expected to hit hard.



Controversy caused by "No Alarm" in Broken Bridge


After the release of Broken Bridge, the negative comments focused on the story logic and emotional relationship of the film. "The story of the broken bridge reduces intelligence" and "Why didn’t the woman who broke the bridge call the police" have boarded the hot search one after another, causing great controversy.


The main questions raised by the audience are: Why didn’t Wen Xiaoyu call the police immediately after he got the U disk evidence? What is the necessity of Wen Xiaoyu and Meng Chao’s "one kiss to save lives" and Meng Chao’s sacrifice for justice?



Regarding the motive of "not calling the police", director Li Yu responded on the Internet: "Human nature is complex and unpredictable, not black and white. This is precisely the most real place of the film. It may be true and uncomfortable, but it is a complex gray human nature under the sun."


The film also released two hidden clips that were not edited into the feature film. One was that Xiao Yu directly explained to Meng Chao why he didn’t call the police to get revenge, and the other was that Meng Chao revealed to Xiao Yu the mystery of his life story of protecting his sister from murder as a child.


The main creator tries to explain to the audience through these ways and make up for the shortcomings of story plot and emotional existence. However, the film has taken shape and "damage" has been caused.



Some viewers will be biased in judging the genre of Broken Bridge. The film is not a suspense film, but a crime film with suspense color. It takes the suspense that is not difficult to solve as the entrance and a single linear narrative as the trajectory to explore the emotional depths of the offender and the victim.


In the film, the relationship between Wen Xiaoyu and Zhu Fangzheng’s foster father and daughter, and her psychological struggle for the kindness of Chou He who killed her father have not been fully demonstrated; Although Meng Chao tells the story of her sister, and the film also wants to play the role of Xiaoyu as her sister, the relationship between Xiaoyu and Meng Chao is not more convincing.



The core of this film is to express the mutual redemption between Wen Xiaoyu and Meng Chao. When these obvious deficiencies appear in the narrative level, many viewers’ understanding and empathy for the role’s behavioral motives are blocked and unreliable.


The story frame of Broken Bridge follows the genre paradigm of crime movies, but there are many counter-type operations in the main details, which I want to present with the psychological reality logic of "unpredictable human nature". Unfortunately, most viewers don’t buy it, and everyone needs to see objective facts and reasonable causality.



Chen Yu, the screenwriter of Rock Solid, once wrote: "At present, China’s crime films are only statements of crimes, and few films are interpretations of crimes." He believes that "interpretation" means understanding society and human nature through understanding criminal behavior.


The creation of Broken Bridge has such a starting point. As a crime film with the theme of anti-corruption, it has thought-provoking significance in expressing the chaos of collusion between officials and businessmen, appealing to social conscience, caring for real human nature, etc., but it is regrettable that the expression method and structural process are missing.The balance between genre and anti-genre, reality and psychology needs to be paid attention to and considered in the creation of domestic crime films.


How do domestic crime films perform?


Up to now, only four domestic crime movies have been released in 2022, and the order of box office ranking is Detective Wars, Broken Bridge, Marginalist and Hunting, and the total box office of the four movies only accounts for less than 5% of the total box office of the year. On August 26th, a new crime film "The Man Who Loves Me Most in the World" will be released, and the volume is not big.



Previously, affected by the epidemic, the number of films released was small, which directly led to the reduction of this type. Although crime movies are hot, compared with plot, war, science fiction, animation, comedy and suspense, they have not been the mainstay of the box office in the mainland market, and their performance is relatively unstable.


However, from a single point of view, "Detective Wars" is in deus ex in the summer file; Although the operating rate of cinemas in China was once less than 40% due to the epidemic, The Marginalist still made a firm release to save the market and achieved a performance of 160 million box office, which shows that crime films have a lot of hidden strength.



"Detective Wars" and "Edge Walker" are both created by the Hong Kong team, and Hong Kong-made crime films have long been the mainstay of this type in China.


Various crime themes and crime cultures have always permeated into different types of Hong Kong movies, and Hong Kong crime movies are also integrated with gangster movies, action movies, gangster movies and heroic movies, which can no longer be simply summarized by a single type, so the content is richer and more entertaining.



Crime films made in the mainland are constantly developing a completely different type from Hong Kong films.


Chen Sicheng’s producer, Sheep Without A Shepherd series, strengthens suspense content on the basis of crime films. Both films have entered the top ten box office of China’s film history crime films, which has set a successful creative path in the domestic market.



"Nobody" and "Crowd" are both absurd comedies and crime films with realistic reflection consciousness, which have unique value of localization.


China’s public security organs have made breakthrough achievements in anti-drug and anti-gang activities, which have provided real and powerful adaptation materials for operation mekong and Anti-gang Battle, and this theme will continue to be publicized in crime films focusing on different cases.



30 new films of crime types are worth looking forward to.


Although there are only a handful of crime films released so far this year, there are a large number of similar new films that have been officially announced and will meet the audience one after another in the future. The 1905 film network also sorted out 30 films worth looking forward to.



Hong Kong-made crime films will still be the main force in the future market. Where the Wind BlowsFocus on the history of the "Detective Shuangxiong" who has dominated Hong Kong for 30 years;Assassination stormAdapting the best-selling mystery novel Death Notice: The Dark Ones in China;Temporary robberyIt is the taste of authentic Hong Kong-style gangster films; It’s booked for September 9 thBroken networkBased on online financial crimes, these films are all aimed at being released this year.



Goldfinger will unveil the shady business battlefield in Hong Kong in the 1980s. Insider goes deep into the truth behind the charity case; "Anti-drug 3 Days" continues the series of firepower, and these more powerful blockbusters are expected to debut next year.


Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Andy Lau, Aaron Kwok, Liu Qingyun, Louis Koo, Yam Tat-wah, Wu Zhenyu and other leading actors continue to gather and stimulate different energies in Hong Kong-made crime films through arrangement and combination.



In terms of mainland output, the integration and overlapping of crime films with other themes and types are more diverse.


In 2021, the anti-corruption theme of "Sweeping the Black Storm" was in full swing, and 500 continued to direct the film "Sweeping the Black and Seeing the Sun"; "New Order" featuring gangster action scenes is also scheduled to be released this year. In addition, Zhang Yimou’s "Rock Solid" and Gao Qunshu’s "Trident", two "stocks" have kept fans waiting for a long time.



The anti-drug theme in the crime category will usher in "Drug Hunting" and "The Secret World", both of which are starred by Wang Qianyuan, a professional gangster film. The theme of economic crimes is "Fox Hunting Action" and "Fishing Action" with the theme of anti-network telecom fraud.



Crime films adapted from real cases have always been highly concerned. "Playground" is based on the case of burying a corpse in a playground that has been dusty for 16 years and shocked the whole country. The Eighth Suspect focuses on a major case of armed robbery of an armored car in 1995. In addition, there are Reindeer, which focuses on human trafficking, and Victim, which focuses on robbery and murder.



From the film The Sacrifice of Suspect X and The Worry-Free Grocery Store to the series The Ten-Day Game and The Cloister Pavilion, the adaptation of Keigo Higashino’s novels in China has never stopped, including the film version The Wandering Blade, The Cloister Pavilion and The Kidnapping Game, which are scheduled for release on December 23rd. These crime films are mainly based on suspense.



The success of Better Days and Sheep Without A Shepherd proves that the market favors crime films with emotion as the core.


In the future, Chen Sicheng’s producer, Zhu Yilong’s The Disappeared She and Zhou Dongyu and Haoran Liu’s The Flame on the Plain are all based on love crimes, and the public has high expectations.



Cao Baoping’s new film Across the Furious Sea, which is good at shooting commercial crime films in China, combines crime with family affection, with starring Bo Huang and Zhou Xun. The collocation of Wu Zhenyu and Ren Suxi in Prosperity Is Coming is also fresh.



"Prosecutorial Storm" and "The Last Truth", which investigate cases from the perspective of prosecutors and lawyers, cut into criminal cases from the professional perspective of the legal system. In addition, it is worth looking forward to "The Man in the Wig" with strong artistic temperament, which is suitable for the film festival route, and the comedy+crime commercial film "Inverted Sting".



When domestic genre films gradually mature, the quality of crime genre films is also upgrading, and the future can be expected.


In 2021, the national ecological quality index was 59.77, and the comprehensive evaluation of ecological quality was "Class II".

CCTV News:The Ministry of Ecology and Environment recently released the national ecological quality index for the first time, and comprehensively evaluated the ecological quality in 2021. The results show that the value of "National Ecological Quality Index" is 59.77, and the comprehensive evaluation of ecological quality is "Class II". What does this evaluation represent? What reference does this index have for improving the ecological environment in various places? Come and see the reporter’s observation.

It is understood that in 2021, the national ecological quality index value is 59.77, and the comprehensive evaluation of ecological quality is "Class II", which shows that China is rich in biodiversity, with a high proportion of natural ecosystem coverage, a complete ecological structure and perfect functions. Among them, the county area with "Grade I" ecological quality accounts for 27.7% of the national land area, mainly distributed in Daxing ‘anling, Changbai Mountain and southeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the northeast; The second-class county area accounts for 32.1%, mainly distributed in Sanjiang Plain, Inner Mongolia Plateau, Loess Plateau, Kunlun Mountain, Sichuan Basin, Pearl River Delta and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. The county area of "Class I" and "Class II" accounts for about 60% of the national territory.

Dong Mingli said that carrying out ecological quality assessment is a "comprehensive physical examination" for the overall situation of the ecosystem. Mainly from four aspects, namely "ecological pattern", "ecological function", "biodiversity" and "ecological stress".

"Ecological pattern" reflects the type, quantity, spatial distribution and configuration of ecological land such as woodland, grassland and wetland in regional ecosystem, which is similar to the surgical examination of human height and weight. "Ecological function" reflects the stability and adjustment ability of the ecosystem, just like the medical examination of general functional indexes such as "liver, kidney, spleen and stomach" in physical examination; "Biodiversity" reflects the biodiversity at the regional species level and the vitality of the ecosystem, which is similar to the examination of core functional indicators such as the human heart. The "ecological stress" reflects the interference and pressure on the ecosystem, similar to the health hazards of some people "smoking, drinking and staying up late".

The supermarket industry is "breaking through" losses.

People all over the country have seen what happened in Shanghai in the past month or so. Beijing is facing the risk of a new round of epidemic, and Beijing citizens have chosen to "stock up" without hesitation. We have seen that many supermarket stores have empty fresh shelves, almost empty frozen shelves, and long queues at checkout counters.

In the face of this social emergency that triggered a short-term supply run, you will find it very boring to distinguish between online and offline, or that online is suppressing and robbing offline business.

The decline of the physical retail industry, especially the supermarket industry, in the past decade is essentially the lack of purchase value caused by the lag of supply capacity and the rise of fixed costs of the physical industry. The upside-down relationship between the two is becoming more and more obvious.

In 2022, the panic buying caused by epidemic prevention and control in various places seems to have caused the physical retail industry to experience a short-term "recovery", but this does not mean that the supermarket industry has returned to the "golden age". What we see more is the "store closing tide" of Wal-Mart, Yonghui Supermarket, Lianhua Supermarket and CR Vanguard. In 2021, many listed retail enterprises reported a double decline in revenue and profit.

China’s physical retail industry, accurately speaking, has entered a "loss era" in an all-round way.

Phenomenon: ice and fire are two worlds.

In Shanghai in March and Beijing in April, the supermarket industry experienced "two days of ice and fire".

At the end of March, on the eve of Shanghai’s "global static management", many citizens went to nearby supermarkets overnight to snap up materials, and many offline stores extended their business hours. On April 23, a local epidemic broke out in Beijing, and there was a sharp increase in consumption around the closed community in a short time.

According to media reports such as Securities Daily and China Business Daily, on April 25th, some supermarkets such as Huamao Chengpin Supermarket and Shilibao in Beijing Beiyuan area were sold out of vegetables, meat, eggs and milk, and even there were cases where Meituan, Hungry, and other errand boys queued up to buy materials at the entrance of the supermarket. In Wumeipin Supermarket (Caibaidian), there are empty shelves in fruit and vegetable, dry goods, cold storage area, convenience food, flour and other commodity areas.

On the 25th, Beijing Wumeipin Supermarket Caibai Store Map/China Business Daily Ran Longnan

For consumers, the supermarket has a complete range of goods, rich varieties, and the certainty of seeing is believing and taking the goods and leaving, which meets the emergency needs of citizens in special periods. Especially after the short-term orders of some e-commerce platforms surged, and orders could not be placed or the supply was insufficient, and the delivery was delayed, offline supermarkets became the first choice for consumers to purchase materials.

On the surface, the decline of offline supermarket stores almost coincides with the prevalence of online to offline (online ordering and offline fulfillment). The truth is that under the dual influence of the rapid development of e-commerce and the changes of consumer groups, the advantages of supermarkets that were originally inexpensive are no longer available. E-commerce platform transforms the high store cost and labor cost of offline physical stores into price advantage, and online shopping has gradually become an important position for consumers to buy department stores and even luxury goods.

In recent years, integrated e-commerce has in turn accelerated the family category+home-ready business, meeting the full-scene e-commerce shopping needs of consumers with greater, more comprehensive and more cost-effective. Among them, the pre-warehouse model represented by Ding Dong grocery shopping, through the test in Shanghai, verified the family fresh purchase provided by physical retail, which can replace online shopping. Coupled with the experience mind created by Ding Dong’s buying vegetables at the "direct source and quick delivery", the fresh products created by physical supermarkets have suffered a huge impact.

When the world enters the epidemic in 2020, the community group buying promoted by the epidemic further intensifies the supply competition of family purchases. Other small businesses and convenience stores that appear around the needs of the community are also diverting the flow of customers from supermarkets and supermarkets.

According to the latest data from the National Bureau of Statistics, the retail sales of supermarkets, convenience stores, department stores, specialty store and specialty stores in 2021 increased by 6.0%, 16.9%, 11.7%, 12.8% and 12.0% respectively over the previous year. Judging from the growth data, hypermarkets, supermarkets and big formats are not only difficult to compare with online formats; It is far less popular than "small and beautiful" convenience stores, specialty store and specialty stores.

The visitor rate of the supermarket has been quiet for a long time, except for a grab brought by the blockade. Everyone knows that this snap-up phenomenon is a short-term effect. What we need to think about is, since the real industry has really attracted people to snap up, how can we make the short-term effect long-term-attract people again.

02 Trend: Big Store Small Chain and Small Store Big Chain

Traditional supermarkets include hypermarkets+general supermarkets, as well as medium-sized supermarkets and small community supermarkets. China Chain Store & Franchise Association issued the "2021 Supermarket Format Survey Express", showing that in 2021, 67.1% of supermarket enterprises’ sales decreased year-on-year, 72.2% of enterprises’ net profit decreased year-on-year, and 68.39% of enterprises’ passenger flow decreased year-on-year.

These retail enterprises reported losses, including: Gaoxin Retail, Yonghui Supermarket, Lianhua Supermarket, Zhongbai Group, Jiajiayue, Jingkelong, Hualian Comprehensive Supermarket, Renrenle and BBK.

The reasons for the decline in performance given by these retail enterprises are nothing more than two reasons:

First, affected by the repeated epidemic, the decline of offline customers and the economic downturn, consumer expectations have weakened, competition in the retail industry has intensified, and channel diversion has been serious, and revenue has generally declined;

Second, the traditional stores are cautious in expanding their stores, and the increase in expenses due to the implementation of the new lease criteria and the closure of stores to dispose of assets have a certain impact on turnover.

At the same time, these enterprises have given or are already doing change exploration methods, including the following two types:

First, the member stores of big stores and small chains have gradually become the mainstream of consumption, and their advantages have emerged. Traditional supermarket enterprises regard "warehousing member stores" as a new growth point.

Member stores represented by Costco and Sam in the United States have inspired China’s physical retail industry. This format is dominated by middle-class families with cars, and the profit depends on collecting membership fees. As a model and direction that conforms to the current consumption trend and is recognized by the retail industry. In October 2020, since the opening of Box Horse X Member Store, the first domestic warehouse membership brand, "Warehouse Member Store" has attracted much attention and become a hot word in the industry.

From 2021 to the end of March this year, there were more than 100 newly opened warehouse member stores (warehouse stores) in China. Among them, local supermarkets, such as Yonghui, Carrefour China (Suning.cn), Beijing Hualian, Renrenle, which transformed from traditional hypermarket mode, have tried this new format one after another.

Of course, some people in the industry are not optimistic about the clustering of supermarket enterprises into member stores, thinking that they are similar in shape but not in spirit, and it is difficult to really form a climate.

Second, the convenience store format of small stores and large chains has become more convenient for instant consumption and has begun to take shape.

In addition to the loss list of the physical retail industry, there is another bright spot: Hongqi Chain achieved profit with a net profit of 480 million yuan. In fact, the convenience store-based business model is the key to ensure the steady growth of Hongqi chain’s revenue.

Relevant data show that in the first quarter of this year, the year-on-year growth rate of supermarkets above designated size was 3.2%, while convenience stores still maintained a growth rate of 10.1%, which is the highest growth rate in physical retail.

Thanks to the good growth momentum and policy support of the convenience store industry, the impact of new formats such as community group buying and fresh e-commerce is relatively limited. Therefore, in the current downturn of the industry as a whole, Hongqi Chain can still maintain its growth.

Convenience stores are close to consumers, with high accessibility and high consumption frequency; Warehouse member stores have abundant SKUs, high quality and low price, and master the passenger flow and member loyalty. The two physical retail formats have great development potential. Of course, how to further optimize them based on the local environment has become an urgent problem to be solved in the transformation and transformation of retail enterprises.

03 direction: where is the physical retail going?

The traditional supermarket format, represented by the store model, has experienced 20 years of gold in the supermarket industry. The external pressure from e-commerce group purchase has defeated traditional supermarkets, and its internal profit model and backward product selection management have also been exposed one by one.

Affordability is not as good as member stores, convenience is not as good as convenience stores, richness is not as good as e-commerce, and core categories are not as good as professional fresh stores. For consumers, daily shopping seems to find no reason to go to the supermarket. However, it is undeniable that the offline model has human touch and convenience, and physical retail still has vitality.

So, what kind of offline supermarket can survive? In other words, where will the future urban retail form go?

"Retail Business Finance" believes that regional brands and convenience store enterprises represented by Fat Donglai and 7-ELEVEn will become the next development form of urban retail.

First of all, around the regional characteristic retail, we should adjust measures to local conditions and attach importance to the cultivation of retail enterprise culture.

The regional retail brands represented by Fat Donglai in Henan sell not only commodities, but also the ultimate service experience. For consumers, the brand reputation of Pangdonglai, which has been deeply cultivated in the local market for many years, is returned by consumers again and again, and the repurchase rate is close to 100%.

What this enterprise brings to the retail industry is: how to focus on the growth of the enterprise and the progress of employees, and how to pay attention to the happiness of customers and the achievements and happiness of employees while pursuing benefits.

Secondly, around the regional specialized retail, focus on creating 365-day 24-hour service that meets the "daily+extraordinary" period.

"Nihon Keizai Shimbun" once conducted a survey of Japanese consumers on "Why do they like convenience stores?" Most people answered, because it is always open during the day or at night, and it can solve all the needs in daily life.

Indeed, for the student party, single office workers or elderly people living alone, from breakfast rice balls, milk bread; Lunch box lunch to beer snacks at night, three meals a day can be solved in convenience stores. Flexible and compact convenience stores do not need to bear the huge warehouse cost of large supermarkets, and at the same time meet the daily needs of residents with strong supply chain capabilities.

In addition to daily needs, Japan’s 7-ELEVEn has put forward the goal of "evolving into social infrastructure service business", and the standardized chain operation mechanism of convenience stores operating 24 hours a day is also in line with the standard of "social infrastructure".

With the long-term process of urbanization, convenience stores have become more and more a part of urban infrastructure, and they bear the important social functions of ensuring supply, stabilizing prices and emergency hedging in special periods.

Li Ling, a consultant of Lianshang. com, believes that in the face of the surging epidemic, ensuring supply is the foundation of strict control in the society, and the whole society also feels the importance of retail. Retail should become the livelihood infrastructure like hydropower, providing people with living security in the face of major disasters.

The epidemic has brought a big impact on the retail industry, and the transformation of old and new kinetic energy has also provided opportunities and platforms for the development of new business enterprises. Retail enterprises represented by regional characteristics and specialization will also combine the "new infrastructure" such as artificial intelligence, Internet of Things and data centers to evolve into social infrastructure service industries while meeting consumers’ one-stop service needs.
