China’s statement denouncing the US for launching a trade war was refuted by the US think tank.

  This article also quotes an American science and technology think tank that ranks first in the world, saying that China’s statement is seriously divorced from the facts, just like writing a novel, and lists how this American think tank refuted China’s official statement to pieces.

  However, in Brother honest and frank’s view, this article, which has caused many "haters" to climax, especially the refutation of us by the American think tank, is full of loopholes and serious injuries … ..

  Text:

  Let’s first introduce this so-called "No.1 in the world" science and technology think tank. It is called "American Information Technology and Innovation Foundation" (ITIF for short), and its chairman is robert Atkinson. It has served as a consultant in the fields of trade and scientific and technological innovation in former US presidents Obama, Clinton and George W. Bush.

  Therefore, when such a figure jumps out to criticize China, the people who eat melons will naturally be intimidated by his title and resume, and it is easy to listen to his story.

  What’s more, this Mr. Atkinson has been publishing articles and reports that criticize China’s trade behavior "systematically" since a long time ago, such as Enough: Facing China’s New Mercantilism in 2012 and False Commitment: The Great Gap between China’s Commitment to the WTO and Reality in 2015.

  What is mentioned in the popular article in the WeChat circle of friends today is an article that he specially wrote to "criticize" our statement one by one after the Ministry of Commerce issued a statement on the US trade war behavior.

  But although Atkinson has painstakingly coded more than 1000 words to criticize the statement of our government, his refutation is full of all kinds of rhetoric traps such as "stealing concepts", "logic inversion", "selective blindness" and even "making things up".

  Let’s talk about it one by one:

  【1】

  In the first article of its statement, China’s Ministry of Commerce accused the US of "fabricating a whole set of distorted truth about Sino-US economic and trade relations" under the pretext of "suppressing China’s development for domestic political needs". Atkinson’s refutation is that China did not give a satisfactory answer to a series of allegations in the official statement of the United States and his own article "Enough: We must face China’s new mercantilism" published in 2012. (The original words are "China has yet to satisfactorily responded to all of the claim")

  However, the problem is that the accusations against China in the US 301 Report and the accusations against China in Atkinson’s own report in 2012 are simply unrealistic "crooked theories" and have been criticized by us all the time, so how can we "satisfy" you with China’s reply?

  Moreover, Atkinson’s 2012 report was refuted by scholars in China at the time of publication. Among them, Dr. Yang Zhihuang from Peking University, who works for the Ministry of Commerce, wrote "Confrontation of Confrontation — — Refuting the article "China’s innovative mercantilism" of American think tank, 1 vividly reveals that Atkinson knows that China is not "mercantilism" at all, so he invented a so-called "new mercantilism" by expounding in detail the aspects of "dollar hegemony", "China’s economic growth structure", "China’s family planning policy" and "China’s trade and foreign investment policy".

  More importantly, the so-called huge "trade deficit" between China and the United States is the core reason for Trump’s trade war with China. This is also the basis for Trump to launch the 301 investigation and trade war against China, and it is clearly written in the "background" column of the US 301 investigation report.

  However, Trump’s obsession with the "trade deficit" has long been criticized by American media, scholars and think tanks, which is a very wrong practice, because it ignores the respective positions of China and the United States in the global industrial chain. For example, the Brookings Institution of the United States pointed out in an article that the added value of China’s products exported to the United States is actually very low, and it is harmful for the United States to engage in trade wars.

  Therefore, we accuse the United States of "fabricating a set of policy logic that distorts the truth of Sino-US economic and trade relations for the purpose of domestic political needs and suppressing China’s development", and there is no problem.

  【2】

  In view of China’s Ministry of Commerce’s refutation of the US accusation of "mercantilism", that is, the success of China’s economy depends not on "mercantilism" but on "firmly promoting market-oriented reform and constantly expanding opening up", Atkinson criticized us and said, "What about your China enterprises taking money from the China government to buy American technology companies? This is not mercantilism? "

  However, Atkinson obviously hasn’t read the Report on Overseas Sustainable Development of China Enterprises issued by the Ministry of Commerce and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. Because this annual report clearly shows that bank loans are the most important source of funds for overseas mergers and acquisitions of China enterprises, and these banks include both domestic banks and overseas banks.

  Another data further shows that in 2016, China Chemical acquired Swiss Syngenta for US$ 43 billion, that is, a consortium of 17 banks at home and abroad provided financing, with a bank loan amount of about US$ 33 billion; In the same year, Tencent acquired game developer Supercell for $8.6 billion, of which $3.5 billion was loans provided by many banks at home and abroad.

  In addition, it is worth mentioning that the China Municipal Government actually does not encourage China enterprises to blindly engage in "mergers and acquisitions" abroad. On the one hand, it will increase financial risks, and on the other hand, it will have a negative impact on China’s foreign investment.

  【3】

  In response to my Ministry of Commerce’s accusation that "the US side imposed artificial restrictions on the export of high-tech products with comparative advantages out of the Cold War mentality", thus aggravating the US trade deficit with China, Atkinson retorted to the Ministry of Commerce that "your China administration pursues [import — Alternative] policy, and you also restrict the import of American semiconductors. "

  Actually, brother honest and frank has to thank Mr. Atkinson for specifically mentioning the example of semiconductor. Because people who have long been concerned about the development of China’s semiconductor industry know very well that it was the Wassenaar Agreement, which was made by the United States and its allies in 1994 and was full of cold war meaning, which prohibited the export of modern international semiconductor equipment to China, which forced China to make efforts to develop its own industry, so as not to be strangled by the United States and lose the country’s independent ability.

  Therefore, Atkinson’s criticism of China confuses "cause" and "effect".

  【4】

  Regarding China’s Ministry of Commerce’s statement that China is constantly improving the legal system of intellectual property protection and promoting relevant trials to refute the US statement that China stole American intellectual property rights, Atkinson sarcastically said, "Is this the reason why Qualcomm, an American company, was found to have violated the anti-monopoly law only in your China court and was severely punished by $1 billion? And you also used this case in 2015 to force Qualcomm to sell its technology license at a low price, which is unique in the world. ".

  In other words, what Atkinson means is that you in China are not protecting intellectual property rights at all, but infringing on and attacking American enterprises in the name of protection.

  But Atkinson seems to forget that in January this year, the European Union also fined Qualcomm more than $1 billion for violating the anti-monopoly law, and in 2016, Qualcomm was fined more than $800 million by a Korean court.

  What is even more puzzling is that anti-monopoly and intellectual property protection are obviously two things. Why does Atkinson want to mix these two things? — — Could it be that "intellectual property protection" in Mr Atkinson’s eyes is to allow enterprises like Qualcomm to abuse their dominant market position?

  In fact, in terms of intellectual property protection, China has indeed safeguarded the interests of the United States and Qualcomm. Last year, for example, a company named "Qualcomm" in Shanghai touched porcelain in Qualcomm, USA, and asked Qualcomm, USA to pay 100 million yuan for trademark infringement. In the end, Qualcomm not only won the case, but also Qualcomm was fined 10,000 yuan by Beijing Intellectual Property Court for forging evidence. 8。

  【5】

  In response to China’s Ministry of Commerce’s denial of China’s request for "compulsory technology transfer" to foreign-funded enterprises accused by the US, Atkinson’s attack was "how come an EU survey found that only 12% of foreign companies are willing to continue the current joint venture model if the relevant requirements for joint ventures in China are cancelled?"

  Atkinson also claimed that many American economists knew that China had a policy of compulsory technology transfer. Although China didn’t require foreign companies to abide by it, it would be bad luck if they didn’t.

  Of course, Atkinson’s statement itself is not new. After all, this is what the US government has been accusing China of for more than 10 years.

  Moreover, it is not only the United States that "accuses" China of asking foreign companies to "force technology transfer". The survey conducted by the European Union in 2013 mentioned by Atkinson shows that the foreign-funded enterprises interviewed are generally dissatisfied with the requirements of the joint venture required by the laws of China, and only 12% of the enterprises interviewed said that they can accept the existing joint venture arrangements.

  However, this dissatisfaction is mainly due to the restriction on the share ratio of the joint venture, that is, the foreign shareholding cannot exceed 50% at most. Among them, more than half of foreign companies indicated in this survey that they hope to own all the shares in the enterprise.

  In fact, some foreign-funded enterprises are dissatisfied with the share ratio distribution of joint ventures in China, which is one of the main reasons why they constantly accuse China of "compulsory technology transfer" out of thin air. At the same time, the rapid rise of China, especially the progress in science and technology, has also made these enterprises feel that their advantages over China are gradually weakening, which has further aggravated their anxiety and intensified their clamour for "compulsory technology transfer".

  However, as Wei Jianguo, the former vice minister of the Ministry of Commerce, said, this accusation is totally groundless, because China has never had any official laws and policies requiring foreign investors to transfer technology. China News Service also quoted professionals as saying in a report that there is only a "paid license for technology use" in China that will benefit foreign investors, but there is no law or policy requiring technology ownership transfer. It is "nonsense" to accuse China of compulsory technology transfer.

  In addition, this year, the China government has relaxed the restrictions on the share ratio in joint ventures, so that foreign investors can have a decisive say in joint ventures. China also promised in "black and white" that the relevant share ratio restrictions will be lifted by 12% around 2021 and 2022.

  In view of the statement that the industrial policies such as "Made in China 2025" put forward by the Ministry of Commerce of China are only guiding and leading policies under the market economy, and are also open to foreign investment, Atkinson retorts that "all the subsidies are given to enterprises in China, but not to the United States, so you are not guiding policies at all, but subsidizing China enterprises to attack American enterprises".

  But Atkinson’s rebuttal seems to deliberately omit two messages: 1. The Ministry of Commerce still has such a half sentence in its reply about "Made in China 2025": "Ironically, the United States itself has a large number of subsidies in agriculture and manufacturing" 13; 2. Many government departments in China have repeatedly stated through the media that the policy of "Made in China 2025" will bring equal opportunities to foreign-funded enterprises.

  For example, Xin Guobin, vice minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said last year that China’s first domestic large aircraft C919 is a "model of cooperation between Chinese and foreign enterprises": its engines, avionics and flight control systems come from several European and American joint ventures or wholly-owned companies, and its suppliers include General Electric Company and Honeywell Company, among which there are more than a dozen overseas enterprises among the first-class suppliers, and there are about hundreds of second-class and third-class suppliers. Moreover, after the successful first flight of C919, GE made a special news announcement, stating that it participated in the China Large Aircraft Project 14.

  【7】

  In response to China’s Ministry of Commerce’s statement that China has been actively negotiating with the US on trade differences, instead of "ignoring it" as the US said, and the statement that the US started a trade war, Atkinson retorted that "you started a trade war in China more than 20 years ago, and Trump just responded, and in recent years, you in China have been constantly delaying and avoiding the questions raised by the US".

  So don’t try to "grab the moral high ground", Atkinson said.

  But Atkinson is actually "stealing the concept". As Brother honest and frank said earlier, the root cause of the Trump administration’s trade war against China is that he thinks there is a "huge trade deficit" between China and the United States, and the persistent trade differences between China and the United States are all aimed at narrowing the trade deficit.

  At the same time, the "trade deficit" is also the main reason why Trump launched a trade war against several American allies at the same time.

  Therefore, China’s Ministry of Commerce is right to say that the United States fired the first shot.

  As for the trade disputes between China and the United States, before Trump came to power, the trade negotiations between the United States and China in the past few years actually managed to control these differences, and made gradual adjustments to each other on a rational basis. On the contrary, Trump broke this mode of cooperation as soon as he took office, threatening China and its allies with tariff sticks that American experts and think tanks and even Atkinson himself opposed, and his own negotiating team was even more confused, which had already been exposed by the American media for many times.

  Therefore, our Ministry of Commerce is not wrong about trade differences and negotiations.

  In addition, Brother honest and frank thinks that Mr. Atkinson should also make up the basic knowledge of "trade war", and then look at how many benefits Sino-US trade has brought to the United States in recent years. Finally, think about if China launched a trade war against the United States as early as 20 years ago, are these benefits for the United States blown by strong winds?

  【8】

  In response to the statement made by the Ministry of Commerce of China in the last paragraph that China will "continue to promote opening up, create an attractive investment environment, firmly support economic globalization, and firmly safeguard the international economic and trade system", Atkinson sarcastically said, "You said it well, but in fact you didn’t do it at all".

  His reason is that he wrote a report in 2015 claiming that China has not fulfilled most of its commitments after its accession to the World Trade Organization.

  However, after this report was published in 2015, it was immediately refuted by domestic scholars in China. Among them, Professor Cui Fan of university of international business and economics refuted the so-called unfulfilled promises of China listed in Atkinson’s report one by one.

  Professor Cui even found that most of Atkinson’s accusations against China in the WTO were not only absurd, but also made up many nonexistent "commitments" of China’s accession to the WTO 17… …

  【8】

  Finally, I believe that when you read this, you will find that although Atkinson and the "American Information Technology and Innovation Foundation" he founded do have certain authority in the United States, many of his viewpoints cannot withstand the cross-examination of evidence from China, and even many of his viewpoints are further exposed to the problem of "falsification" under this cross-examination.

  However, his poor "refutation" of China’s Ministry of Commerce can be spread on WeChat, not only because the spectators have excessive emotions and lack of common sense, but also because our media and even think tanks have not done enough in the field of communication for the public.

  Therefore, although Atkinson’s point of view is absurd, his hard work to discredit China should bring us some touches and thoughts.

Complete solution of HPV vaccine | Not about nine-valent HPV vaccine, should we vaccinate bivalent and tetravalent vaccines first?

Cctv news(Reporter Kan Chunyu, Lu Yuanyuan): HPV vaccine has entered the China market for five years, but the public still has many questions about this only vaccine that can prevent cancer. CCTV specially launched a series of programs called "Complete HPV Vaccine" to connect Qiao Youlin, a professor from the School of Medicine and Public Health of Peking Union Medical College and a member of the cancer prevention expert group of WHO Director-General, to dispel the doubts for readers.

1. If the nine-valent HPV vaccine is not available, should the bivalent and tetravalent vaccines be inoculated first?

Qiao Youlin: In fact, a large number of data at home and abroad have proved that the main genotypes causing cervical cancer are 16 and 18, and both bivalent and tetravalent vaccines cover these two genotypes, and tetravalent vaccines also add two low-risk genotypes — — Type 6 and type 11, these two genotypes mainly prevent condyloma acuminatum and other benign diseases.

 

The preventive effects of these two vaccines on cervical cancer are actually the same. Internationally, everyone’s consensus is that vaccination should be as early as possible, as small as possible and as soon as possible. If there are bivalent seedlings but have to wait for tetravalent seedlings, and there are tetravalent seedlings but have to wait for nine-valent seedlings, there will be eleven-valent seedlings and fourteen-valent seedlings after the nine-valent seedlings. Is it necessary to wait forever?

Nine-valent vaccine has five more genotypes, and its protection coverage can reach more than 90%, but in fact, the risk of cervical cancer in women’s life is not that high, less than 1%. In this case, you can’t wait for a little more protection. In the process of waiting, many women are often infected. In this case, we suggest that you should get whatever vaccine you have.

2. In some areas, girls are vaccinated with HPV free of charge. Why not include adult women?

Qiao Youlin: There are indeed some adult women who are very anxious. They feel that they didn’t get the vaccine before, but now they finally have the vaccine. They should be vaccinated first. In fact, these women should also be vaccinated, especially young women who are sexually active. However, I have to admit that the protective effect of her vaccination is definitely less than 99% and 100%, because she may have been infected before, and the virus may already be in her body. At present, the vaccine has just begun to be popularized and there is still a shortage of supply. I think it is still necessary to vaccinate the most protected girls under the age of 15 with the best immune effect.

Consumption refers to good shops, "heavy" price reduction.

21st century business herald reporter He Yuyuan and intern reporter Liu Jingxi reported.

The wave of price reduction in good shops continues.

On December 28, 2023, the company responded to the second round of price reduction rumors. According to a number of media reports, the staff of the securities department of Liangpin Store said that the news of price reduction is true, but it does not exist in the second round, but has been going on. According to its introduction, there were 300 snacks in the good shop before, including nuts, baking, meat, vegetarian food and other core categories, and some products were sold at 30% to 47% lower than the original price.

At the end of November, Liangpin Store announced that it would implement the largest price reduction for the first time in 17 years. The average price reduction of 300 products was 22%, with the highest drop of 45%, mainly focusing on snacks with cost optimization without affecting quality and high repurchase rate. In the investor relations activities in early December, Liangpin Store said that the driving force for price reduction mainly came from the supply chain to improve efficiency.

In fact, good shops have to change. The financial report shows that in the first three quarters of 2023, the company’s revenue was 5.999 billion yuan, down 14.33% year-on-year.

In the third quarter, the revenue of good shops was 2.013 billion yuan, down 4.53% year on year. In terms of channels, online business sales reached 852 million yuan, down 19.42% year-on-year; The sales of offline business was 1.39 billion yuan, up 8.97% year-on-year. "The price of our products must be more close to the people." The company said.

And price cuts are eroding profits. In the third quarter, the net profit of good shops returned to their mothers was 1,998,400 yuan, down 97.88% year-on-year. Specifically, the gross profit margin decreased by 2.06pct to 27.74% year-on-year, while the expense ratio increased by 3.57pct to 27.06% year-on-year, in which the sales expense ratio increased by 2.3pct, management fee rate increased by 0.92pct, R&D expense ratio decreased by 0.06pct, financial expense ratio increased by 0.4pct, and business tax and surcharges decreased by 0.1pct.

The high probability of the gross profit decline of good shops is related to the active adjustment of product price belt to increase the proportion of some low-priced products, and the obvious increase of sales and management expenses is related to the expansion of direct stores against the market.

In the third quarter, Liangpin Shop Company opened 45 net stores, including 92 directly operated and -47 franchised stores respectively. The number of offline stores is 3,344.

As the scale of franchisees is relatively reduced, good shops put the growth weight on direct sales, which makes it particularly important to reduce prices and increase transaction volume. However, under the double pressure, its profits will continue to be under pressure.

This is a "heavy" price that it must accept in order to restore growth.

On December 28th, good shops closed at 21.49 yuan/share, an increase of 5.24%.

On the same day, the Shanghai Consumer 80 Index closed at 4,854.29 points, up 2.33%.

When our impression of the price range of domestic new energy cars was still around 100,000 yuan, the listing information of BYD Seal gave us a blow, and the official set the price at 209,800-286,800 yuan. BYD Seal is the first pure electric medium-sized car under Ocean Net, with high value, high configuration and good performance.

The seals in the front part of the car inherit the essence of the Ocean X concept car, and take the "X" in the dynamic perspective as the framework, giving the front part of the car a strong sense of forward impulse, an "X" shape with upward convergence and downward divergence, which has a strong visual impact and is extremely electric. As an extension of the front face shape, the front cabin cover of the seal has a visual sense comparable to that of a sports car, and its full sculptural surface is amazing and charming, which has both the momentum of surging waves and the profound feeling of ups and downs of mountains, which makes people feel excited and shows a strong dynamic design.

The lighting combination adopts Serene double-U suspended headlights and the bulges on both sides of the front hatch cover, and the inside of the lamp cavity is a double-U suspended LED light-emitting component, which makes the whole headlight more slender and creates sharp eyes for the seal, which can be called the finishing touch of the whole vehicle design. The decoration of the car lamp body and its outer boomerang shape together form the shape of the letter C, which is in harmony with the shape of the turn indicator lamp on the rearview mirror.

The side of the vehicle, supplemented by excellent rhythmic lines, makes the vehicle show a good vitality. From the design, it fully embodies the concept that the design of the vehicle yearns for dynamic and youthfulness. The surface contour is smooth and natural, with a low-lying front cabin cover, an inclined A-pillar, a rounded top cover, a fast back that slides down and a slightly upturned duck tail shape in one go, which outlines the unique shape of the sports coupe.

The tangent line of water extending from the edge of the front engine room cover forms a forward dive posture, and rises slightly behind the C-pillar, which makes the D-pillar visually simpler and the car body more fluid, and also balances the proportional relationship between the window and the car body. In addition, the shoulder line is connected with the edge of the front engine room cover, and like a smooth water flow, it naturally disappears in the back door, showing the natural and energetic side lines of the vehicle.

Correspondingly, the D-pillar triangular window is decorated with two kinds of decorations, one is reminiscent of the shape of coastal reefs, and the other is like water drops, which further highlights the marine theme. The bold and novel design shows the young people’s ultimate pursuit of individuality.

The double waistline of sea waves is the highlight of seal side design, and the long waistline that leans back starts from the back of the front wheel eyebrows, creating the unique elegant style of the coupe when it is static. The black decorative shape at the beginning comes from the ripples on the water surface, and it can also remind people of the tail fin of a seal, which is vivid and lively.

The tail of the seal has a full curved surface and lines full of tension, and the very large light receiving surface effectively improves the texture of light and shadow. The rear bumper doesn’t adopt a simple whole-body design. The decorative pieces on both sides of the vehicle use dense transverse ribs, which are exquisite in detail and have an electric feeling. The large-area black diversion structure in the middle not only effectively reduces the wind resistance, but also shows the sporty temperament like a racing car. At the same time, it also outlines the shape of the seal tail fin through color contrast, which skillfully responds to the theme of naming "seal".

The extremely narrow linear light strip of 5mm is connected in series with water drop lattice lights, and lined with slim and textured high-brightness chrome trim strips, creating a wonderful visual sense of the sea and sky line. Parametric distribution of point light sources is progressive from large to small layers, full of depth and science and technology.

The sense of interior technology is still bursting, and there is no shortage of chip space to meet the level.

After entering the car, the comfortable cockpit of Haiyun Zia built by Seals based on the design concept of "marine aesthetics" is full of various marine elements, which makes people relaxed and happy, and at the same time, they can feel the soft, smart and energetic overall atmosphere. Excellent ergonomic design and exquisite workmanship explain the connotation of thoughtfulness and high quality.

Outside the car, we can see that the theme and design of the front face are very strong, but inside the car, the central control unit is often presented in front of the driver and members, and it also presents a strong design and theme. The "wave-chasing" instrument panel has a complete outline with strong recognition, softness and perseverance, showing a purer design form. Although this design has been common in other models of BYD e platform 3.0, the seal has a stronger sense of theme in the car and a stronger marine element.

Based on smooth and natural lines, the instrument panel is divided into different functional areas through the differences in materials and colors, which further enhances the sense of suspension of the overall shape and has a better sense of space. The seal’s A-pillar is located in the front. In order to eliminate the emptiness of the instrument panel, the upper part of the instrument panel adopts a shape similar to the surging waves. The air outlet of the seal air conditioner is hidden behind the modeling lines and naturally integrated with the instrument panel, balancing the relationship between function and modeling.

The seal’s auxiliary instrument panel is elegant, smooth and dynamic, and it can also remind people of Guangzhou’s landmark building "Little Man’s Waist". Exquisite crystal gear lever is the visual core of the auxiliary instrument panel area. It forms the control center called "in the heart of the sea" with a group of mechanical buttons. Its design is inspired by water droplets, and it integrates common functions including start button, power mode selection, air conditioning and audio control, and it is simple and convenient to operate.

The depth mode of the system can automatically switch the depth mode of the system according to the sunrise and sunset time where the vehicle is located, and the screen can be seen clearly in the daytime when the light is strong, and it is not dazzling at night. The flat design makes the menu hierarchy simpler, the logic clearer and the operation more convenient.

In terms of ride and comfort, the sense of space is well created, especially the width of the vehicle brings a good internal space conversion rate. In addition, it is worth mentioning that the body adopting Cell To Body technology makes the vehicle’s site lower, the internal leg and foot space is larger, and the overall riding posture and ergonomic design are more reasonable.

The existence of driving experience not only pays attention to endurance, but also pays attention to control.

After refreshing my knowledge in face value and interior, the driving quality of the vehicle once again gave me a new understanding of BYD brand and its models. The model we tested this time is a long-life version with an official cruising range of 700 kilometers, but the vehicle has occupied a competitive advantage in data.

Technically, the vehicle has an integrated battery body and an eight-in-one powertrain, including a drive motor, a transmission, a drive motor controller, a vehicle controller (VCU), a battery manager (BMS), a high-low voltage DC converter (DC-DC), a bi-directional on-board charger (Bi-OBC) and a high-voltage power distribution module (PDU). To put it simply, it is to make the vehicle’s electricity do work more scientifically and reasonably without wasting the slightest bit.

The 700-kilometer-long rear-drive version uses a battery pack of 82.5 kWh, with a maximum power of 230 kW and a peak torque of 360 Nm. It supports a fast charge of 150 kW and can replenish the power from 30% to 80% in 30 minutes. Basically, it can lead the standard of independent brand new energy vehicles in terms of hardware and software.

The texture of the vehicle driving on the road is excellent, especially the power feeling is very sufficient. Even if it is a long-life rear-drive model, the power reserve is sufficient, and the accelerator pedal will be fully pressed to the end, which will bring full power explosion. This kind of push-back feeling will not feel that the power is not enough. After this short experience, we have enough expectations for the performance version of the four-wheel drive.

In terms of braking, the front four-piston fixed brake caliper is adopted, which gives the vehicle a very linear and guaranteed braking force when driving. In low-speed braking, the pedal of the vehicle will be a little too sensitive, and it will take the driver some time to adapt to ensure the braking comfort at low speed.

On the control hardware, the vehicle adopts a unique double wishbone front independent suspension, and the rear adopts a five-bar independent suspension, which provides excellent control and riding experience. The advanced sense and excellent texture of the vehicle are fully displayed through the chassis part. For the selling price, such chassis texture does not mean that it is overpriced, and both comfort, support and handling are guaranteed.

In terms of adjustment, the setting of the chassis is excellent, which can filter out the continuous speed bump and small vibration at low speed, and with the increase of vehicle speed, the chassis of the vehicle will also have good rebound efficiency and support feeling, and the roll control is in place, so that the members in the car can maintain a very relaxed ride feeling.

BYD Seals sold for 209,800-286,800 yuan, and used the test drive to find out the confidence of such pricing.

In the sense of direction, the vehicle adopts the front double wishbone independent suspension. You should know that the front chassis structure of the ceiling of a general sports car is the double wishbone suspension, so the hardware fully reflects the original intention of the vehicle. The steering is steady and powerful at high speed and light at low speed, and the directivity is accurate enough. However, the feedback lacks the tension of a sports car, which requires the driver to find the best alignment angle. Perhaps this is a comfortable steering direction, which will not make driving particularly nervous, but a driving feeling that remains relaxed from beginning to end, but can always feel the dynamic of the vehicle.

In NVH, the control of vehicles can be called a level benchmark, even surpassing it. The hardware has double laminated glass, which can isolate the surrounding wind noise. The chassis is thick enough to isolate the road noise, and the tire’s grip and sound insulation are also excellent, giving the car a good sense of advanced.

As it turns out, BYD hit me in the face again. I was prepared with a kind of criticism when I tested the Tang DM-P, but I was moved by the real strength of the vehicle, so I got a new understanding of BYD brand and its products. However, I didn’t want to understand why this seal can position itself with the price range of a joint venture or even imported car. However, after a simple test drive for one day, all doubts and doubts were dispelled, and BYD once again proved itself with product strength. Perhaps it is time for independent products, BYD’s products and brands to be completely subverted, because they really have such strength.

Biden made the "most severe condemnation" to Putin: unforgivable!

  [Global Network Report] According to CNN and the British Guardian, US President Biden made the "most severe condemnation" of Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday (16th) local time, claiming to describe the Russian president as a "war criminal" for the first time. In response, the Kremlin quickly responded, calling it "unforgivable remarks."

  CNN said that the change of Biden’s government’s attitude occurred after Ukrainian President Zelensky made a speech to the US Congress via video on 16th. Earlier, US officials, including President Biden, avoided using the term "war crime" to describe Russia’s actions in Ukraine on the grounds that the United States is still investigating whether such words can be used to describe it.

  According to the report, a few hours after Zelensky’s speech, Biden also delivered a personal speech. However, Biden applied this word to Russian leaders at an event unrelated to the above-mentioned things on the 16th.

  According to reports, at that time, Biden was first asked by reporters around him whether he thought Putin was a war criminal. He initially responded by saying "no". But he quickly returned to the reporter and asked again to confirm the question. The reporter asked again, and Biden gave a positive reply: "I think he is a war criminal."

  Regarding Biden’s remarks, The Guardian quoted the Tass news agency as saying that the Kremlin responded quickly, calling it "unforgivable remarks". Peskov, a spokesman for Kegong, said Biden’s remarks against Putin were "unacceptable and unforgivable", Tass news agency said.

  Recently, after the United States and the West announced successive sanctions against Russia, according to a report quoted by the Tass news agency on the 15th by the Russian Foreign Ministry, Russia announced on the same day that it would impose sanctions on US politicians and individuals such as US President Biden. The report said that the Russian list of personal sanctions against the US included 13 people. In addition to Biden, US Secretary of State Blinken, Secretary of Defense Austin and others were also included in the sanctions list.

  Supply chain collaborative innovation to promote the holiday economy "different red"

  Chunjiang Plumbing Duck Prophet. The popularity of the "May Day" consumer market is expected for Chen Xinping, a merchant in Yiwu Market who is at the production end.

  As a global distribution center for small commodities, before the "May Day" holiday, many companies in Yiwu worked overtime and worked at full capacity to catch up with orders, providing production guarantees for domestic and international double circulation.

  Chen Xinping, head of Meichen Hat Industry, who has been engaged in foreign trade business for 15 years, told reporters that due to the impact of the epidemic, the company tried to do domestic trade last year, and the road to transformation was not smooth sailing. "There are differences in the size, arc and color of hats in the domestic market and foreign markets."

  After a year of transformation, Chen Xinping said that this year, domestic trade has achieved growth, and foreign trade has taken on many orders transferred from South East Asia. "Now the daily production volume is more than 8,000, and the supply is still in short supply. Orders have been arranged until July."

  Chen Xinping said that for the "May Day" holiday, the company actively innovated and shipped in advance, incorporating outdoor elements such as beaches and forests into the pattern design of hats, and the market response was relatively good.

  Zhu Sufang, the head of Yindi Jewelry, is busy delivering goods to "live streaming host" these days. "Many people like to watch live broadcasts on vacation, and the live streaming host has a higher turnover rate." Zhu Sufang told reporters that before "May Day", many live streaming hosts came to "stock up" in advance, and they all started with hundreds or thousands of shipments.

  From a deeper perspective, the integration of the "double cycle" pattern cannot be separated from the stability of the supply chain system. In recent years, Zhejiang has attached great importance to the modernization of the supply chain, and a number of industrial supply chain collaborative innovation benchmarks have emerged, which continue to input power into the consumer market.

  For example, Wuchan Zhongda and Zheshang Zhongtuo based on the advantages of commodity collection and supply chain finance, innovated business models, and actively served clusters such as Haining warp knitting and Haiyan fasteners, which effectively promoted the innovation of cluster supply chain models and the reduction of costs and efficiency of enterprises; Zhoushan Ocean Base increased investment in cold chain and commercialized processing facilities, created a whole fishery supply chain from "bow" to "stove", and innovatively launched a squid index and delisting trading system to effectively expand the market radiation range of "Zhoushan seafood".

  The reporter learned that the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Commerce recently released the "14th Five-Year Plan" for the development of modern supply chains in Zhejiang Province. By 2025, Zhejiang strives to initially build a modern supply chain system for advantageous industries with leading innovation power in the country, efficient coordination of the whole chain, independent, safe and controllable, and cultivate an industrial supply chain system with 3 trillion-level transactions and 10 100-billion-level transactions. As a major open province and a major consumer province, Zhejiang has made overall efforts to fill short boards and forge long boards, providing solid support for building a new development pattern.

  The flow of things is smooth, and the inner and outer "double circulation" is integrated.

  The essence of circulation lies in its smooth flow, among which the smooth flow of things is one of the key focuses.

  During the "May Day" holiday, Ningbo Zhoushan Port was still busy. At 11:18 on May 4, the "Changyi" ship started loading and unloading at berth No. 5 in Meishan Port Area of Ningbo Zhoushan Port. A total of 4,167 TEUs of containers were unloaded here, and 1,615 TEUs were loaded and exported.

  As a pioneering demonstration area for the construction of smart ports in Ningbo Zhoushan Port, Meishan Port Container Terminal is focusing on piloting smart projects such as remote-controlled bridge cranes, remote-controlled automated tire cranes, and intelligent trucks, with steady improvement in loading and unloading efficiency.

  "Since the beginning of this year, the operation volume of Ningbo Zhoushan Port Meishan Port has been growing steadily. During the May Day period this year, the market demand for transportation was strong, and ships were concentrated in the port. The average daily container throughput of Meishan Port was more than 20,000 TEUs, a significant increase year-on-year." Mao Hua, the operation manager of Ningbo Meidong Container Terminal Co., Ltd., said.

  The eyes shifted to the Yiwu railway port, and the freight flow was also endless. During the "May Day" holiday, the "Yixin Europe" China-Europe train shipped 3 to 4 trains every day to ensure the material transportation needs of Eurasian countries and the import needs of the domestic market.

  "Double circulation" lies in the all-round, wide-ranging, and deep-level interaction and integration of the two domestic and international markets and two resources. As the best adhesive for "double circulation", Zhejiang import enterprises play a good role as bridges and links, vigorously tap the potential of domestic demand, and promote consumption upgrading.

  Wang Fangmao, head of "Haikelai" imported lifestyle supermarket, told reporters that from the current performance, this year’s "May Day" has increased by 18% compared with the same period last year, especially sunscreen products and imported beverages and other summer products are more popular.

  It said that this growth is inseparable from an effective market: with the improvement of people’s quality of life, the demand for imported consumer goods is increasing; at the same time, it is also inseparable from a promising government, including the smooth flow of cross-border logistics channels and the organization of various import consumption exhibitions.

  "Under the global epidemic, ocean freight has risen. We use the’China-Europe Express + Ocean Freight ‘method to combine freight, which is more stable." Wang Fangmao said.

  Regardless of the wind and waves, it is better to take a stroll. It said that the "May Day" holiday is just a window, and with the continuous advancement of building a new development pattern, the potential of the Chinese market can be expected. (End)

Wuhan’s "summer back garden", the real version of the cool little forest, these places must clock in

It’s mid-June

The heat wave began to sweep across Jiangnan

Strong sense of heat and humidity

Cicada Chirping Frog Noise

The summer is getting hotter every day

It kicked off.

As the "back garden of Wuhan"

Some places in Xianning are particularly cool

Let’s clock in!

Summer cool

01. Xianning niche summer resort/bamboo forest in the mountains

In Xianning Tingsiqiao Town, there is a bamboo forest with a full score of summer index. In the summer when the temperature gradually rises, it appears very cool.

Known as one of Xianning’s "New Matai", "Star Bamboo Sea" can be called a summer resort around Wuhan. Compared with most scenic spots I have seen, it has a pastoral feel that is not stained with earthly fireworks.

There were many bamboo seas and stone landscapes in the "small forest "-like natural scenery. Listening to the murmur of water and taking a breath, the whole person felt refreshed. Every time the breeze blows in the mountains, the bamboo tails rise into the air, like the tail of a peacock, like a jade fountain.

Stepping into the cool bamboo forest and mountain road of the bamboo sea of stars, I suddenly felt nothing at all! Here is a large lush bamboo forest, walking in it, as if I had traveled to ancient times and lived the life of a ranger.

02. Xianning Summer "Lung Wash" Guide/Breathe heavily in the green mountains and green waters

For people who stay in the city for a long time, Jiugong Mountain Scenic Area is definitely a rare "lung cleaning" place!

Here "the mountains are the pictures, and the water is the shadow". The most primitive scenery in southern Hubei is so beautiful that it is indescribable.

The cool air in summer must be hidden in the lake in the clouds, covered by ancient trees, faintly revealing a few light spots, rowing a boat, feeling the cool of the natural oxygen bar, and watching the beautiful scenery from a distance.

Summer exclusive blue and white, always make people feel comfortable and comfortable. Jiugong Mountain is clean and pure, plus the blessing of blue sky and white clouds, it can be beautiful without filters~ Staying in such a place, with the sky as the quilt and the ground as the shop, it is estimated that no one can refuse.

03. The beautiful summer/yearning life of Shanyuan Valley is realized here

Looking at Shanyuan Valley from a distance, the fresh painting style seems to have strayed into the summer in the film and television drama, the blue sky, white clouds, lake water, birds… everything is particularly beautiful.

Perhaps the best way to take a boat tour of Acacia Lake, lie on the boat for a nap one afternoon and look up at the clear sky.

Butterfly Spring, Level 3 Lotus Pond, Parent-Child Beach… The romantic and gentle summer is vividly interpreted. Many tourists stroll among them, enjoying the cool summer in Xianning and admiring the lotus leaves in the pool.

If you get tired of playing, head to the central square, where there are several small supermarkets and convenient snack stations that can help you refuel.

This summer, the song of summer cicadas has begun to ring in my ears, Muscovy ducks are playing in the water, and all the scenery is so harmonious and gentle.

sultry summer day

I just want to find a summer retreat and dive into it

Why don’t you come to these wonderful places?

Feel the coolness!
