  I was born in poverty. When I was a child, my parents kept telling me to be grateful. I am grateful for our times, and it is the reform and opening up that has given me a bigger platform to display my skills.

The hard experience of the fiery red age



  I was born in Shanghai in 1943. According to my father, my ancestors were poor farmers near Zaozhuang. In the early years, my great-grandfather fled to Jiangning rural area outside Nanjing with his family. Later, my grandfather went to married with children to work and earn a living. At that time, my father was only 9 years old.

  Living in this poor family, I am also a sensible child. I watched my father go to work in such a distant unit to support his family, and my mother had to manage the affairs of this large family and get busy with her work. As the eldest son, I had the idea of sharing responsibility in my heart. At that time, Shanghai Railway Bureau was implementing the construction project of Shanghai-Nanjing double track, and it was urgent to set up a construction team of tens of thousands of people. As a result, I just turned 16 and became a construction team member. Every day, I devoted myself to the iron flow of Shanghai-Nanjing double-track construction. After a year, the double-track project was completed, and I was honored as an "excellent team member".

  After the Shanghai-Nanjing double-track project, I reported back to the street. Soon, the street recommended me as an "excellent member" of the railway front to work in Shanghai Steel No.3 Plant. It was the end of 1959, and I became a steel worker. Shanghai Steel No.3 Factory is located in Zhoujiadu, Pudong. I work in the steel casting workshop. The heat is scorching, and my clothes are soaked again and again every day. I’m a rigger in the steel casting workshop. After steelmaking, I have to use a crane to lift and haul away the remaining slag bags. I got used to the smell of sulfur and asphalt accompanying steelmaking. I suffered hardships, endured tiredness, sweated and performed well, and was rated as the production model of Shanghai Steel No.3 Plant every year.

  In 1962, a number of key projects were dismounted, and the economic front contracted, which also brought trouble to our steel mills. By February 1963, I reported back to the street. Less than a month later, the street introduced me to work in the municipal engineering team. I finally found a job that I can entrust for life. Looking back now, the positions I have experienced and the jobs I have engaged in seem to be preparing for this job that suits me best.

  I joined the 101st Engineering Team of the First Engineering Brigade of Shanghai Municipal Corporation on March 5th, 1963. At that time, I was young, quick-witted, in good health, full of energy, and had many years of experience as a worker. Considering that I worked as a rigger in a steel plant, the company arranged for me to work in the lifting team of the 101 engineering team. This type of work gives full play to my specialty and makes me work like a duck to water. There are nearly 20 workers in the lifting team, among them, several old wizards are level 6 or level 7 workers with rich experience and high level. I humbly learn from my teacher and study hard.

  I made rapid progress in the lifting team. In 1965, I was appointed as the captain of the lifting team. I brought our team together with my sincerity.

Construction team leader who takes the construction site as his home.

  Municipal construction means building bridges and roads; Building bridges and roads is to benefit the people. Some people think that building roads and bridges is an open-air job, which is too bitter because of the sun, rain, wind and frost. I don’t feel bitter. I like this job from the bottom of my heart. I have decided that this job is suitable for me and it is my "golden rice bowl". I will hold it tightly.

  From then on, I put my mind into my work and spilled my sweat on the construction site. In 1965, I was named "Five Good Workers" in Shanghai. In 1971, I joined the Party at the Suzhou Creek Bridge Construction Site. When I raised my right fist in front of party flag to take the oath, I sincerely felt that my shoulders were heavier. That was the sense of responsibility of Communist party member.

  In 1975, the municipal company appointed me as the captain of the 101 construction team. From the date of this appointment, I moved the bedroll to the construction site and regarded the construction site as my residence. Since then, all the year round, from morning till night, I have been eating at the construction site, working at the construction site, sleeping at the construction site, and even lying on the construction site when I am sick. Anyway, where the project is, the construction site is. Or camp along the river, or set up a tent in the wild, or set up a tent everywhere, spread a straw mat on the ground, and put the bedding on the floor. In a word, it’s common in cold and hot weather, rain and snow, and let it go when mosquitoes bite.

  I remember that the project of Suzhou Creek Hengfeng Road and Bridge was complicated. At that time, our construction equipment was old and the construction period was long. During the construction period, I didn’t go home once for five months. I remember the Suzhou Creek Cao Yang Road and Bridge Project, which was more difficult to construct because of the busy water transportation in the bend and the complicated land traffic. At that time, my home was in Jinsha New Village, Cao Yang Road, only 10 minutes away from the construction site, but my mind was focused on the bridge-building project. The Suzhou River ebbed and flowed every day, and the construction conditions were different. Construction problems would pop up at any time. I didn’t dare to be careless at all, and I didn’t dare to leave the construction site for a minute.

  The Wusong Bridge project, which is related to the construction and development of Baosteel and affects the travel and life of Baoshan people, was originally scheduled to last for three years. However, after our construction team undertook this 968.7-meter-long bridge project, it took only 19 months to build it with high quality by going all out, innovating processes and overcoming various problems.

  One day, during the construction of the No.10 pier of Wusong Bridge, serious seepage suddenly occurred, and the foundation pit of the pier with a depth of 5 meters was leaking, which was very critical. I led the construction team to drain water while building dams. After three days and three nights of continuous rescue, I finally eliminated the danger and saved the foundation pit. We have been immersed in the river for so long that we can’t move any further.

  After serving as the construction team leader, I not only don’t live at home at ordinary times, I don’t eat at home, and even I can’t guarantee to eat at home for the New Year’s Eve. I remember that during the construction of major projects such as Songpu Bridge, Jinshan Bridge, Hujia Expressway, Wusong Bridge, Taipu River Bridge, nanpu bridge, Hengfeng Road Bridge, North-South Elevated Bridge, etc., in order to ensure the quality and the construction period, during the construction period, I can’t go home to reunite with my family every New Year’s Eve, stay at the construction site for the new year’s eve, and have dinner with my workers during the construction.

Tempering the "Bridge-building Heroes" in the Storm



  In our municipal construction front, bridge building is a job with the greatest technical difficulty, labor intensity and construction risk.

  Bridges are different: there are bridges on the river, bridges on the river, bridges on the lake, bridges on the bay, dry bridges on the railway and elevated roads. Bridges on rivers are the same. The rivers are wide and narrow, and the bending potential of the coastline is not the same. Moreover, the geological conditions and soil characteristics of each bridge are different, and the traffic conditions and transportation vehicles carried by each bridge are different. The situation of bridge construction in urban areas and rural areas is even different. Our construction plan, construction equipment, construction period and construction progress will be handled flexibly according to the situation.

  Suzhou Creek is the mother river of Shanghai, and the construction team led by me, as the main team of bridge construction in Shanghai, has been dealing with Suzhou Creek for decades. In the process of exploring the law of bridge building, I am more and more familiar with the temperament characteristics of Suzhou River. For example, when we build the Suzhou Creek Bridge Project, we will avoid the high tide every day. The Suzhou River ebbs and flows twice a day, which is roughly the same as other rivers. However, the ebb time of Suzhou River is different every day, and its ebb time will be 45 minutes every other day. We know its temper thoroughly, and we can always accurately "you retreat and I advance" to race against time and improve work efficiency.

  In the summer of 1986, Kangqu Bridge Project, a practical project of Zhongshan Nanyi Road, which is matched with Luban Road Cross-river Tunnel in Huangpu River, entered a tense construction stage. This project has a complicated construction environment and high design requirements. Besides, "Kangqu Bridge" seems to be a bridge. In fact, there are seven bridges to be built in this bid section. In order to make the Luban Road cross-river tunnel open to traffic on schedule and benefit the citizens, the municipal government has given a dead order to the "Kangqu Bridge" project, and must win this arduous project within five months.

  I know this is a tough battle, and I can’t be vague. I jump on the construction site every day, keep an eye on every link, overcome all the problems, and compress my sleep time to about 4 hours every day. During this time, due to overwork and little sleep, periodontitis broke out, my cheeks were red and swollen, and half of my face was painful. However, "toothache is not a disease, but the project is the most important", and the Kangqu Bridge project was completed on December 23 of that year.

  The Zhenbei Road overpass we built left an unforgettable impression on me. This overpass connects Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway and Wuning Road, and is known as the majestic west gate of Shanghai. The investment of this bridge is 500 million yuan, accounting for a quarter of the total investment of Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway. It is the largest bridge undertaken by our municipal construction team since its establishment.

  On Zhenbei Road overpass site, we have laid nearly 3,000 concrete piles, dug out 200,000 cubic meters of soil, erected more than 2,000 beams, poured 380 meters of concrete box beams, poured 14 kilometers of concrete for scour walls, buried 12 kilometers of rainwater pipes and sewage pipes, and paved 79,000 square meters of bridge pavement and 89,000 square meters of asphalt ground roads. My team and I have created a miracle of completing this grand project with high quality in 600 working days.

  Zhenbei Road Interchange Project is the pride of our team and a monument to the history of Shanghai’s municipal construction.

  I am 76 years old this year. In retrospect, I have participated in the construction of nearly 90 bridges in my life. I have devoted my hard work and wisdom to the cause of bridge building. At the beginning of 1994, the leading group of Shanghai key project practical competition named the municipal 101 construction team I led as "Bridge-building Heroes Team".

Deep debt to family.

  For decades, I have been focusing on engineering and taking the construction site as my home. Naturally, I care very little about my family. My wife, Tang Hongmei, worries about big and small things at home.

  I got married on December 31st, 1968. On the third day after my marriage, I packed my bags and went to Minhang construction site.

  Since the 1970s, one task after another, and then catch up with the development opportunities of Shanghai in three years, our municipal engineering company has undertaken more and more projects.

  For decades, I lived and ate on the construction site. My wife has adapted to me not going home for a month, two months or even three months, and she will be very surprised when I suddenly go home every two weeks.

  My wife is very understanding and supportive of my work. My wife only complained about me once. That was in 1988. My daughter Xiaojun was ill and had a high fever. She didn’t have a fever for seven days. My wife was so anxious that she called me at the construction site in the telephone room. I got the call at about 6 o’clock in the evening, but unfortunately, there were a lot of difficult things on the construction site that day. By the time I got home, it was already more than 9 o’clock in the evening. That night, fortunately, I hurried home. Near midnight, my daughter not only had a high fever, but also her whole body twitched. I quickly carried my daughter down from the fourth floor, caught the last bus and sent her to the hospital for emergency treatment. My daughter didn’t have a fever until 3 am. My wife muttered, "I owe you to go home tonight. Otherwise, what should I do?"

  I take building bridges as my life’s mission, and I have no regrets for paying more for it. However, when three of my relatives died successively, it was because the construction project just entered the critical construction stage. As the on-site commander, I couldn’t leave immediately, so I couldn’t rush to bid farewell. I regret this for life.

  My father was honest and worked hard all his life. He moved from Nanjing to Shanghai with my grandfather at the age of 9; In order to earn money to support his family, he went to work in a leather workshop at the age of 10.

  When my father reached middle age, he was diagnosed with emphysema, and he coughed badly, especially at night. At the beginning of February, 1990, my father became ill again, and he was very fierce. He was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. As a result, he found out that his father had lung cancer, which was advanced. His father was 72 years old that year. Upon learning of this terrible news, I rushed to the hospital from the bridge site in Jinshan County, and hurried into the ward to visit my father lying in the emergency bed. I inquired about the illness and rescue situation in detail, and my sister and brother comforted me. My sister said, "You are busy, you should go first. We have arranged for six brothers and sisters, and we will take good care of my father." Unexpectedly, this trip turned out to be a farewell to my old father.

  Only seven days later, my father left us forever. At that time, I was devoting myself to the construction of Zhujing Bridge in Jinshan County. That day, when I received an urgent telegram from my sister reporting that my father was critically ill, our construction team was rushing to build the main pier, so I couldn’t leave the command post immediately. Besides, the road from Jinshan to Shanghai was very narrow at that time, and there were not many long-distance bus flights. When I arrived at the hospital with great anxiety, my father had already died, and the family was waiting for me in the ward with his body. Seeing this, I was so sad that I burst into tears.

  Unexpectedly, just one year after my father’s death, my older brother had a heart attack, and my sister called to report the emergency. I was at the site meeting of the finishing project of Jinshan Bridge. As the commander in chief, I was adjusting the plan, assigning tasks, making demands and telling details. At this juncture, I really couldn’t leave immediately. At 7: 30 that night, the family called again, and the emergency call turned into a funeral call. This time it was my wife. She choked on the phone and said, "Don’t come back, your brother has left!"

  1993 was a "bumper year" for our major projects in Shanghai, and many projects that benefited the citizens were successfully completed in this year. This year, I fought day and night on the construction site of Wusong Bridge, a major project, because I was too busy building the bridge to bid farewell to my mother, which left me with eternal pain in my heart!

  My mother suffered from diabetes in her later years, and her blood sugar index was very high. Later, she gradually couldn’t see clearly, suffered from glaucoma, and finally became sick and complicated, causing several comas. In those years, every time she was hospitalized, I would make time to visit. Of course, my elder sister and younger sister are the main caregivers. In June, 1993, my mother got sick for the last time. At about 3 pm that day, my sister sent an urgent telegram to report the news that my mother was dying. At that time, I was presiding over the emergency meeting of the closure construction of Wusong Bridge. This time, I left the scene as quickly as possible, but I got on the bus and arrived at Putuo District Central Hospital from Wusong. It was nearly 6 o’clock in the evening, and it was late again. My mother had left us forever.

Piling on "Long Mai"



  In the early 1990s, in order to meet the needs of Shanghai’s rapid economic development, Shanghai municipal engineering ushered in a construction climax. According to the blueprint of "Three-year Great Change", following the completion of the Inner Ring Road and Yan ‘an Road Elevated Road, the magnificent construction of the North-South Elevated Road has been launched again. This is an important stroke of Shanghai’s "Shen" shaped elevated road running through the north and south.

  Naturally, the municipal 101 construction team led by me will not be absent in the construction of the north-south elevated road. At that time, the bid section of our team was the Suzhou River Bridge which was elevated from north to south. This bridge is more than 1000 meters long, and its widest point is 56 meters. In order to ensure the safe and efficient construction in the complex land and water environment, we innovated the technology in this river-crossing project, and all of them adopted the construction of hanging basket without support, which took only 16 months from the start to the completion.

  In the construction of the north-south elevated road, our team originally built the Suzhou Creek Bridge, but who would have thought that the well-known battle of piling on the Yan ‘an Road overpass "Long Mai" happened to hit me again!

  Yan ‘an Road Overpass, where the north-south viaduct and Yan ‘an Road viaduct meet, was ranked first in Asia at that time with a height of 31 meters. This overpass runs through the east, west, north and south, and the ramp turns left and right, which is divided into five floors. In order to support the multi-storey bridge deck and reduce the number of piers, the designer designed an extra-large cylindrical pier with a diameter of 4.2 meters, which effectively supported the four-storey bridge deck of the whole interchange.

  It is this extra-large cylindrical pier, and the story of piling on the "Long Mai" around it in those days can be spread to the gods.

  The project of Yan ‘an Road Overpass was undertaken by a large company in this city. They subcontracted the piling project of the main pier to a partner-a foreign construction company. Although this construction company has the professional ability of piling, it used to lay foundation piles for plant construction, and it has never encountered such a "hard bone" with broken teeth.

  The company is based in Baosteel, and the construction team members are picked up and dropped off by shuttle bus every day. On the way back and forth, it coincides with the rush hour. It takes nearly two hours for a single trip. At 9: 00 a.m., they arrive at Yan ‘an Road site to start piling, stop piling at 3: 00 p.m. and get back to the station in the evening. This stop-and-go piling method is exactly the taboo of piling.

  According to the original design, Yan ‘an Road Overpass will be driven with 6 rows of steel piles, totaling 36 piles, each with a diameter of 90cm and a length of 64m. The company’s piling equipment is a large-tonnage pile hammer imported from abroad, and the piston core weighs 8 tons, which is qualified.

  However, there was something wrong with the company’s construction method. The first pile was not driven down, only 46 meters deep, and the remaining 18 meters of piles were exposed to the ground. They drove a total of six piles, the deepest one was the first pile, which went down 46 meters, the shallowest one only went down 26 meters, and the pile exposed to the ground was 38 meters.

  In the face of such a big problem, piling had to be suspended, but rumors spread. He said that this is where Long Mai is, and piling piles here caused the Dragon to get angry, but he had no choice but to invite the abbot of the eminent monk to make up for the "ritual". Although red candles were fragrant for days, it still had little effect.

  The engineering headquarters believes that rumors must be stopped, superstitions must be broken, and problems must be solved. On that day, the leaders of engineering headquarters and municipal design institute invited me to the construction site for "consultation". I checked the relevant geological data, and learned about the previous piling situation, and pointed out that there was something wrong with the original piling method. This 64m steel pile must be continuously piled, and the situation should be taken advantage of. When piling, water should be continuously injected to reduce the resistance, and all the steel piles should be continuously driven down before stopping for a rest.

  After listening to my construction suggestion, the leaders of the headquarters and design institute agreed, but the frustrated company spent three months here only driving six piles, and none of them were driven to the end. They refused to continue to work if the construction plan was to be adjusted. So the engineering headquarters agreed to the company’s withdrawal, and instead asked me to "go out of the mountain", and our bridge-building heroes immediately stationed at the Yan ‘an Road overpass site, and hit 36 64-meter-long steel piles in "Long Mai".

  After we entered the site, we didn’t start work immediately. Instead, we first won the support of local street organizations and environmental protection departments to do a good job with the surrounding residents, agreed to our continuous construction day and night, and understood and supported us to complete major municipal projects as soon as possible.

  After research, our construction team decided to adopt the piling method of "from shallow to deep". We will not move the pile that has been hit the deepest for the time being, but start to make up the piling from the pile that has been hit slightly shallowly. The piling machine is divided into four grades. When starting, we don’t need a heavy hammer first, but use a low-grade light hammer to test and inject water while hitting, so as to reduce the piling resistance, and gradually get the right temper, and then hit it faster and faster, and hit it more and more.

  Within a few days, we felt the pattern and mastered the progress. Generally, we laid a pile every day and drove it for 16 hours in a row. We started at 6 o’clock in the morning and finished at midnight. In this way, workers can catch up with their sleep, the equipment can not be overused, and the surrounding residents can have a quiet environment for 6 hours.

  In this way, one pile after another, completely in accordance with the design requirements, hit 64 meters deep, 36 piles formed a strong foundation, produced a great force, firmly supported the magnificent Yan’ an Road overpass, and endured the rumbling of vehicles from south to north.

  After the completion of the Yan ‘an Road overpass project, the engineering headquarters simply wrapped a layer of metal skin on the outside of the towering big column pier, and there were protruding Kowloon reliefs on it. These nine golden dragons seemed to tell people the story that Shanghai builders did not believe in rumors, were not afraid of difficulties and opened up new roads.

Reform and innovation is my unremitting pursuit goal.


  I became a worker at the age of 16, and I didn’t read much. At first, I only had junior high school education. I know my shortcomings and my soft files. On the one hand, I use my spare time to make up for my shortcomings in cultural study. For example, when I was working in the No.3 Plant of Shanghai Steel, I attended night school and high school for two years. On the other hand, I have been thinking more, asking for advice and learning more in my work practice. In practice, I have learned knowledge by combining problems and learned knowledge to solve difficult problems. Fortunately, practice is my textbook, construction site is my big classroom, and bridge building is my main major.

  For decades, on the municipal front and on the bridge-building site, although I have been busy with the wind and rain every day, I have never regarded myself as a "lout" and never worked blindly. Every time I receive an engineering task, I carefully study the engineering drawings and compare the construction schemes repeatedly.

  A philosopher said that it is impossible to step into the same stream twice. Similarly, each bridge project we undertake is different. Therefore, our construction team has different methods of implementation every time. In the construction of Hengfeng Road and Bridge, according to the actual situation, we adopted a new technology of "prestressed post-tensioned box continuous beam", which changed the previous practice of "full-house support", but hung a "hanging basket" on the main beam of the bridge and pushed it towards the river center bit by bit. This new process is three to five times more efficient than the old one.

  In the construction of Wusong Bridge, a key project, we innovated the technology. On both sides of the river, four hanging baskets were used for opposite construction. Previously, we used computers to accurately calculate the prestress of the bridge, thus ensuring the accuracy of the north-south opposite construction. After that, when the continuous beams hundreds of meters long from north to south are closed, the butt joint height difference is only 4 mm, which is much lower than the international standard of allowable error of 20 mm. Such a high-quality and high-precision closure depends on scientific construction, innovative technology and knowledge.

  From 1996 to 1998, I took advantage of my spare time on weekends and evenings to attend the advanced course of Master of Economic Management organized by Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, and got a certificate with qualified results.

  The spirit of the 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of China inspired the enthusiasm of our construction team, encouraged us to be brave in innovation and constantly explore the construction field. During the five years from the 14th Congress to the 15th Congress, the output value of our construction team increased at a rate of 40% every year, and the profit of 10 million yuan was paid to the superior company every year, and the return on assets was about 250%.

  In those years, our team not only innovated in the construction technology, but also actively brewed changes in the system reform of the construction team. On November 15th, 1997, with the support of Comrade Huang Ju, the first Shanghai municipal engineering company named after me was established.

  According to the relationship between assets and bonds, the company is established on the principle of "invigorating the operating mechanism and making big and high-quality assets", and is controlled by Shanghai Zhengyi Company of Urban Construction Group. Of the registered capital of our company, state-owned assets account for 62.5%, and operators and employees hold 37.5%. I am the chairman.

  Reform has brought China’s economic development into the "fast lane", brought profound changes to our society and greatly improved people’s living standards. The reform has also brought a brand-new system, new vitality and great changes to our municipal industry.

How busy is the class teacher in senior three: arrive at school at 7 am and go home at 11 pm to decompress fancy.

  There is only one month left before the college entrance examination, and the majority of senior three students are preparing for the college entrance examination nervously, so as to seize the last time to review the sprint. The teachers in the graduating class are not easy. "What if the students’ grades decline?" "How to deal with emotional fluctuations?" "Can students achieve ideal results in the college entrance examination?" … … Teachers also have their own pressures and anxieties. Yesterday, our reporter interviewed the graduating class heads of many high schools in Haikou and listened to their stories about preparing for the college entrance examination with the students. Reporter Lin Wenxing Cao Baoxin

  go out early and return late

  Get to school before 7: 00 a.m. and go home at 11: 00 p.m.

  Since the students were promoted to Grade Three, Zhao Tao, the head teacher of hainan overseas chinese middle school Science Experimental Class, has spent more time in school every day. It is morning reading time at 7: 00 in the morning. Zhao Tao has to get to class earlier than the students to communicate with the teachers about the teaching arrangements for the day. In addition to completing his teaching tasks, Zhao Tao always pays attention to the learning status of every student in the class, answers questions for students in time, encourages them, and guides them to study in a good state. Under normal circumstances, at 11 o’clock in the evening, when the last student left the classroom, Zhao Tao packed his teaching AIDS and left school for home.

  This year’s senior three is not the first graduating class brought by Zhao Tao. Since he taught in Hainan Overseas Chinese Middle School 10 years ago, he has accompanied three students through their high school careers and sent them to the next stage of their lives. Senior three is an important period for students. Under the pressure of college entrance examination, many minor problems of students will be exposed during senior three, which will affect their preparation for the exam. Zhao Tao also summed up three issues that should be focused on: physical fitness, class style and study style, and preparation mentality.

  Students’ physical fitness is a problem that can’t be ignored during the third year of high school. "In the process of high-intensity and fast-paced preparation, the pressure is great, and you may get sick if you don’t pay attention, which will affect your study progress." Zhao Tao said that it is a good way to exercise by running exercises, physical education class and outward bound training, which can also effectively relieve the pressure of study. "We organize students to go hiking every semester. From the feedback, the effect is very good." Zhao Tao said that, coupled with the irregular sports competitions in grades, students’ anxiety has been significantly improved.

  Zhao Tao said that at present, the learning atmosphere in the class is very good, and there is cooperation and competition among students, which is conducive to the overall progress of the class. However, the pressure brought by the college entrance examination is still reflected in some students. "A small fluctuation in grades may bring students an emotional gap. It is the responsibility of every class teacher to do psychological counseling." Through classroom performance and heart-to-heart talks with students, Zhao Tao can master the learning and psychological state of most students, and help them to relieve their stress and eliminate their anxiety by means of inter-class communication and seminars.

  Wear several hats.

  In addition to attending classes and enlightening students, we must also communicate with parents.

  Like many class teachers, Xu Min, the head teacher of the key class of liberal arts in senior three of Haikou Experimental Middle School, is not easy. This senior three class is the eighth graduating class led by Xu Min, with more than 50 students. As a history teacher, she is also responsible for the teaching of another class. "She is responsible for nearly 100 students, and their studies and even their emotions should always be concerned." Xu Min said that all the teachers and class teachers in the third grade of senior high school implement the "sitting class system", and they should be guaranteed to be in school without curriculum arrangement, so as to provide timely guidance to students. "Basically, they will not leave school before 10: 30 in the evening."

  As a class teacher, Xu Min undertakes more responsibilities than a classroom teacher, including doing a good job in student counseling and communication with parents. In the graduating class with Xu Min, the ratio of male to female is 1:4. "There are more than 40 girls and only 10 boys." One of the problems brought by girls is that the class mood fluctuates greatly. "In the face of pressure, boys and girls react differently. Girls are more emotional, and they are more likely to be scared and nervous when they encounter setbacks in their studies, which will affect other students." Xu Min told reporters that a girl once cried to her for a whole morning because she slept for half an hour more than her roommate. "This is a bit ridiculous to outsiders, but it can be seen that the college entrance examination has caused her great pressure."

  At the same time, the pressure from parents also made Xu Min a little overwhelmed. "The school’s important exams are analyzed by online marking, and parents can see their children’s scores in various subjects. After the results of the monthly exam last month came out, my phone was blown up by my parents, basically consulting my children’s learning problems. " Xu Min said that most senior three students are boarding, and parents can’t fully understand their children’s situation. Whenever they see their children’s grades in individual subjects decline, they can’t wait to ask why, sometimes adding pressure to their children. In this case, Xu Min should not only do a good job in psychological counseling for students, but also communicate with parents to avoid family factors affecting students.

  Work in spite of illness

  In order not to delay students’ study, they don’t rest when they are ill.

  The teaching work in senior three is heavy, and teachers are often faced with both physical and psychological pressures. "Our senior three teachers all call themselves ‘ Can’t afford to get sick ’ No matter how tired and painful it is, it can’t delay the children’s study. " Xu Min said that many senior three teachers have been working with illness for a long time. "The Chinese teacher’s eyes are overworked, and he was warned by the doctor that there is a risk of retinopathy, but he still insists on attending classes; The English teacher suffers from rheumatism, and her waist and hands have been blocked. The geography teacher has a prominent lumbar disc and will come back to class immediately after staying in bed for less than a month. " Xu Min said that she suffers from arthritis and it is very hard to go upstairs and downstairs, but she has never stopped teaching because of this. "Fortunately, the students understand the teacher’s hard work and help with teaching AIDS and help the teacher go up and down the stairs every day."

  Xu Min said that in fact, every senior three teacher has his own pressure and anxiety. Students’ grades are related to the future, as well as teachers’ teaching achievements and career development. "Teachers are human beings, and sometimes they are upset because of personal and family affairs, but no matter how stressful they are, as long as they walk into the classroom, they always have a smile on their faces." Xu Min said that teachers are the reliance of students at school. Even if they work hard, they should be full of confidence to cheer for the students. "One more second with the children may make them make more progress."

  Hold "adult ceremony" for students and organize running.

  Although it’s the first time for teacher Tang Chenghui from hainan overseas chinese middle school to be the head teacher of grade three in senior high school, in fact, she has been the teacher of the graduating class for eight consecutive years. "I was a little embarrassed when I first took over the work of the graduating class, but after a period of contact, I found myself able to adapt to this rhythm." Tang Chenghui said that especially in the countdown to the college entrance examination, students can abandon their distractions and work hard with teachers towards a common goal.

  Tang Chenghui introduced that at present, students’ review has entered the final stage, and teachers in all subjects will carry out targeted intensive training. "It is inevitable that students are nervous, but moderate tension is also an incentive. As long as they can play normally in the college entrance examination, I don’t think the results will let me down. "

  Tang Chenghui said that what students need to pay attention to at present is to adjust their mentality and achieve better improvisation. To this end, she recently organized a "coming-of-age ceremony" and an oath ceremony for her classmates to give them psychological counseling. Tang Chenghui said that she usually organizes students to run and decompress. In addition, a "coffee time" activity is held once a week in the class, and parents send cool food, mung bean soup, fruit, etc. to supplement the children’s nutrition and relax.

  There is joy in suffering.

  It is gratifying to see the growth of the students.

  Liu Bingfei, a teacher of Hainan Agricultural Reclamation Middle School, has taken more than ten graduating classes since he graduated from teaching physics in 1992. She admits that the college entrance examination is approaching, and her mentality is relatively peaceful, but the heavy work still brings a lot of pressure. "It is very busy to have classes and do a good job as a class teacher." Liu Bingfei said that she usually gets up at 6: 40 in the morning and goes to school around 7: 30 to check the students’ morning reading. Students will be organized to sing and relax during the break at 9 o’clock; After class at 6 pm, the school organizes students to run, and as a class teacher, they must be present to accompany them; At the evening self-study at 7: 30 in the evening, she will basically arrive in advance to answer questions for the students, and at the same time, she will also do a good job in preparing lessons. It is already around 11 o’clock in the evening.

  "If you have classes, you will attend classes. When you don’t have classes, you will often go to the classroom and pay attention to the students’ dynamics." Liu Bingfei said that when he was the head teacher of the graduating class, he could not go to bed until after 12 o’clock at night, and the telephone was kept open 24 hours a day. "The hardest thing is to deal with a lot of trivial matters, but on the whole, I still have fun in bitterness. After staying with students for a long time, my mentality will become younger. I will also feel very gratified to see that children can properly handle their own problems."

Foreign media questioned the slow progress of the "Belt and Road" project, and China made a clear statement.

  CCTV News:At the press conference on November 3, the AFP reporter asked that the local "Belt and Road" projects were observed in Laos, Pakistan, Kazakhstan and other countries, and it was found that some projects were progressing slowly. Why do these projects encounter problems? How does China prepare to deal with these problems? What is the overall goal of the "Belt and Road" strategy?

  Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying replied, I don’t know where the AFP reporter’s views came from. What is the basis?

  The main purpose of China’s "One Belt, One Road" initiative is to complement each other’s development strategies and promote win-win development by strengthening international cooperation. Over the past four years, the "Belt and Road" construction has progressed smoothly and achieved fruitful results, which has been widely recognized and supported by the international community. More and more countries have participated in cooperation, and a large number of cooperation projects are progressing steadily. Many projects have begun to bring tangible benefits to the people of the countries concerned. On November 2nd, the spokesman of the Ministry of Commerce introduced the latest situation of the "Belt and Road" economic and trade cooperation at a regular press conference, saying that the "Belt and Road" economic and trade cooperation has achieved remarkable results, and a number of major cooperation projects are being accelerated, including the highway construction in China-Laos Railway and Pakistan and the oil and gas pipeline projects in China, Russia, Kazakhstan and Myanmar.

  "One Belt, One Road" is an open and inclusive cooperation initiative, adhering to government guidance, enterprise main body and market operation. The "Belt and Road" is a long-term undertaking jointly promoted by all parties, but it is not a uniform group gymnastics. The actual promotion of specific projects depends on the willingness of all parties involved to cooperate and reflects the objective laws of economic cooperation. The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has made important arrangements for promoting the Belt and Road international cooperation, and promoted the construction of the Belt and Road, which fully reflects China’s determination and confidence in firmly promoting the Belt and Road international cooperation. China will continue to adhere to the principles of mutual consultation, joint construction and sharing, adhere to the Silk Road spirit of peaceful cooperation, openness and tolerance, mutual learning and mutual benefit, and deepen mutually beneficial cooperation with relevant parties. This will not be shaken or changed.

China has signed 19 FTAs with 26 countries and regions.

  Vehicles are transferring containers at the modern terminal of Xiamen Free Trade Zone. In recent years, Xiamen Free Trade Zone has innovated the supervision mode of imported wine platform, implemented "one-stop" wine inspection area and "imported wine quick inspection" service, and promoted the rapid development of imported wine trade.

  Data show that up to now, China has successively signed 19 free trade agreements with 26 countries and regions. Accelerating the promotion and implementation of free trade agreements has also become a practical action to stabilize foreign trade and foreign investment under the new situation. Practice shows that the signing and implementation of high-level free trade agreements can effectively promote economic and trade cooperation with relevant countries and regions and effectively reduce the uncertainty of foreign trade and investment of enterprises.

  Milk powder from New Zealand, fruits from Southeast Asia, salmon from Iceland, and red wine from Georgia and Chile … … These goods are increasingly appearing in China people’s homes, and the prices are very close to the people. At the same time, China’s toys, electronic products, daily necessities, clothing, shoes and hats and other commodities have also entered some countries’ markets duty-free or low. Consumers have more choices, enterprises have a broader market and more partners. All this has benefited from the implementation of the Free Trade Agreement (FTA).

  Data show that up to now, China has successively signed 19 free trade agreements with 26 countries and regions. Accelerating the promotion and implementation of free trade agreements has also become a practical action to stabilize foreign trade and foreign investment under the new situation. "At present, the regional trade liberalization represented by the free trade agreement is booming, which is becoming a ballast stone for trade and investment stability and a touchstone for new rules of economic governance." Zhang Shenfeng, vice president of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, said.

  Hedge foreign trade pressure

  Save enterprise cost

  At present, the world economy is undergoing profound and complex changes, trade protectionism is on the rise, and anti-globalization trends are surging. Major economies have adopted free trade agreements as a new platform for regional cooperation among countries. Practice shows that the signing and implementation of high-level free trade agreements can effectively promote economic and trade cooperation with relevant countries and regions and effectively reduce the uncertainty of foreign trade and investment of enterprises.

  "Enterprises can reduce or exempt tariffs when they import products that meet the rules of the FTA. When exporting products, we can also reduce the customs clearance cost of foreign importers through relevant rules, maintain good relations with importers and reach more trade cooperation. More importantly, we can also promote international operations through free trade agreements. " Chen Lilin, director of professional operation of Jiangsu Sumeida Group Co., Ltd., told the reporter that the company had deep cooperation with the local Council for the Promotion of International Trade and made full use of preferential certificates of origin under existing trade agreements.

  For example, the main customers of textile products are located in the EU, but the EU import tariff is as high as 12%, using China — The ASEAN Free Trade Agreement and the EU’s GSP trade rules for Myanmar have achieved zero tariffs on export products. Through the FTA, the company invested and set up a factory in Myanmar, and exported noodle accessories from China to Myanmar, where they were processed and then exported to the European Union, thus reducing the export cost and promoting local employment and economic development in Myanmar.

  A set of data proves the special value of FTA under the current severe economic and trade situation. Affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, the total import and export value of China’s goods trade in the first half of this year was 14.24 trillion yuan, down 3.2% year-on-year. From January to May, 2020, the import and export of China and its free trade partners increased against the trend, which was about 4.8 percentage points higher than the overall growth rate of foreign trade import and export in the same period, reflecting strong anti-risk ability.

  "Comprehensive consideration and flexible use of preferential policies of various free trade agreements is one of the important measures for enterprises to carry out international operations and improve their international level. Legal and compliant use of relevant rules of origin can avoid certain trade risks, save enterprise costs and enhance competitiveness in the international market. " Yan Yun, director of the Commercial Certification Center of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, said.

  Promote the introduction of advantages

  Enjoy preferential policies

  In the interview, the reporter noticed that for a long time, Chinese enterprises have not paid enough attention to the use of FTA, especially small and medium-sized enterprises pay more attention to production links and ignore the understanding and tracking of national policies. In addition, the evaluation systems and standards adopted by different FTAs are different. Based on factors such as production and processing location, raw material source, product composition ratio, etc., the rules of origin of FTAs are complicated, and sometimes obtaining certificates of origin will increase additional costs.

  "FTA work is professional, and for most foreign trade enterprises, what is lacking is professionals." Liu Wen, a professor at Shandong University (Weihai) Business School, said that this made many foreign trade enterprises in China still have a superficial understanding or even a lack of understanding of FTA. In addition, from the actual situation, the signing of some free trade agreements has achieved some policy objectives, but the applicability of many implementation rules and standards needs to be enhanced.

  The key to improve the utilization rate of FTA lies in that foreign trade enterprises can be familiar with and make good use of it. In this regard, in 2019, the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade established 50 local service centers for free trade agreements across the country, and carried out more than 130 activities such as free trade agreement promotion, training and forums, benefiting more than 15,000 enterprises.

  "When we entered the enterprise research, we introduced them to the advantages of FTA. When the enterprise came to apply for the certificate of origin, we also took the initiative to remind them to inquire about the relevant information carefully." The staff of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade Free Trade Agreement (Hangzhou) Service Center told reporters that in the past year, in order to strengthen the service of the service center to enterprises, on the one hand, they organized and set up special classes to answer questions for enterprises, on the other hand, they actively promoted the digital reform of FTA preferential certificate of origin "online".

  "Since the FTA of China, South Korea, China, Australia, China and ASEAN came into effect, our product tariffs have been reduced to zero, reducing transaction costs and enhancing the competitiveness of our products in the international market." Wang Cuiping, the head of Beijing Yingtaijia and International Trading Co., Ltd., said that with the promotion of paperless office, the preferential certificate of origin of FTA has also realized that enterprises can print at home, which further saves time and labor costs.

  It is understood that in order for more enterprises to obtain the information and services related to the FTA in time and enable more enterprises to enjoy the preferential policies of the FTA, the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade started the construction of a new batch of local service centers of the FTA this year, and the CCPIT in Qinghai, Dalian, Huizhou and Zhuhai won the award.

  Keep up with the development of the situation

  Create a three-dimensional service

  The promotion of FTA is an important policy measure to stabilize foreign trade, which can optimize the business environment of foreign trade enterprises, improve the level of trade facilitation, save enterprise costs and stimulate the vitality of market players. According to the statistics of the Commercial Certification Center of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, from January to September, the number of preferential origin visas issued by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade based on the FTA was 643,000, amounting to US$ 23.9 billion, with a year-on-year increase of 10.5%. Enterprises can get different levels of tariff reduction and exemption by handling the preferential certificate of origin of FTA. If calculated according to the conservative 5% tariff preference, enterprises can get nearly $1.2 billion in tariff reduction and exemption.

  Zhang Shenfeng said that the promotion and implementation of the FTA is an important part of the implementation of the FTA strategy by the national trade promotion system and a practical action to stabilize foreign trade under the new situation. "This work has specific and clear data indicators, and the results are tangible, quantifiable and traceable, which is one of the most pragmatic and effective trade promotion work."

  "To improve the utilization rate of FTA, we can learn from the methods of Japan and South Korea to achieve ‘ Precision promotion ’ On the one hand, the government and foreign trade enterprises should actively cooperate, exchange industry trends in time, and provide FTA training and business guidance according to the characteristics of FTA in different countries, industries and sub-regions; On the other hand, the government and public institutions should also publicize the FTA to enterprises; At the same time, it is necessary to cultivate interdisciplinary talents with both foreign languages and professional skills. " Liu Wen suggested.

  In order to keep up with the changes in the international trade situation and further improve the promotion and service of FTA, the government and public institutions will also hold online training according to the latest changes in the situation, timely transmit information trends, and carry out authoritative interpretation of relevant rules and policies.

  On July 15th, the Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs and the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade jointly issued the Notice on Further Improving the Implementation of Bilateral and Regional Free Trade Agreements. In order to strengthen the cooperation among the three departments, fully mobilize the enthusiasm of local, industrial and enterprises to make joint efforts to promote and implement the Free Trade Agreement, arrangements were made.

  "In the context of the complicated international trade situation, FTA work is becoming more and more important and its role is more prominent. In the future, we should speed up the implementation of the notification requirements, strengthen cross-departmental and cross-unit cooperation in the promotion and implementation of FTA, strengthen external coordination, and further enlarge the function of the CCPIT, so as to do a solid job ‘ Six stabilities ’ Work and full implementation ‘ Six guarantees ’ The task makes due contributions. " Zhang Shenfeng said.

A man in Xi ‘an bought 10.01 million prizes in the lottery, but was falsely claimed by relatives of the lottery shop owner.

Mr Yao from Huyi District of Xi ‘an once said,

The owner of the lottery shop is an honest man.

That’s why we have been using WeChat.

Let him buy lottery tickets on his behalf,

Unexpectedly,

I still underestimated the tens of millions of prizes.

A test of human nature.

In July 2019, Mr. Yao bought two lottery tickets with 10 note numbers through WeChat, and the owner of the lottery shop also sent a photo to confirm. Later, Mr. Yao found that one of the note numbers won a million prizes, but when he went to the store to pick up the lottery ticket, he was told by the store owner that he had sent the wrong photo. This lottery ticket with the largest prize was someone else’s. In the past two years, Mr. Yao has been running around defending his rights, and finally the final judgment was ushered in on October 28 this year. This lottery ticket belongs to Mr. Yao. But the grand prize has already been taken away by others. How can Mr. Yao get back his own grand prize?

When the ticket was collected for 10 million yuan, the store owner said there was a mistake.

He won 150,000 mental damage compensation.

Mr. Yao from Huyi District, Xi ‘an is a water delivery worker. He has been buying lottery tickets for more than ten years. Whether it is the lottery or the Fucai two-color ball, he will buy several bets in almost every issue. "If you have time, you will go to the lottery shop to choose your own number. If you are busy, you will transfer it to the lottery shop owner through WeChat to make a few bets on the machine selection number. The boss will take photos of the machine-selected lottery tickets and send them to me on WeChat. If you win the prize, you will receive the physical lottery ticket. " Mr. Yao said.

At about 17 o’clock on July 17, 2019, Mr. Yao still remembers that day. It rained that day and he was not very busy in the afternoon. He went to a friend’s house to play chess. During this period, I suddenly thought that I hadn’t bought the lottery lottery ticket of that day, so I turned to 20 yuan for the owner of the lottery shop, Wang, and asked him to help me with the 10-note lottery ticket. Soon, the owner of the lottery shop sent two photos of the lottery tickets with a total of 10-note numbers to Mr. Yao through WeChat. On the same day, Mr. Yao was at a friend’s house and didn’t go to the lottery shop to pick up the 10 lottery tickets. At 8: 30 pm, the lottery was opened. At about 8: 35 pm, Mr. Yao saw that someone in the circle of friends had issued the winning number of the current period, and the 10-note lottery ticket he bought was not with him. Mr. Yao had to take the photo sent by the owner of the lottery shop and start comparing the numbers.

Red balls 06, 18, 20, 21, 31, blue balls 03, 04. All in, 10 million in a note number! Mr. Yao’s head was suddenly bloodshot, but he still tried to restrain himself and didn’t dare to let his friends see the clue. After all, the owner of the lottery shop still has the lottery ticket that won the grand prize, and only photos can’t be redeemed.

I was told when I picked up the ticket that the lottery ticket did not belong to me.

The boss said that he sent the wrong photo.

"These 10 lottery tickets have won two prizes in total, and one is 10,000 yuan." Mr. Yao said, "I found a reason to come out from my friend’s house and quickly rode an electric car to the lottery shop to get the lottery ticket in the rain, but who knows that the owner of the lottery shop is not there."

When Mr. Yao went to the lottery shop, only Wang’s mother looked after the shop. Mr. Yao called Wang by video to tell him that he had come to pick up the lottery ticket and asked Wang to hurry back to the shop. Mr. Yao kept an eye on it and didn’t tell Wang that the 10-note lottery ticket he bought on the previous generation of WeChat won 10 million prizes.

"Wang didn’t come back to the store immediately, but waited until around 9: 30, and his wife came to the store. She took something from the lottery machine and put it in her bag, then went into the lottery shop. At that time, I didn’t think much about what his wife was doing in the store. I didn’t dare to tell his wife about taking the lottery. I was waiting for Wang to come back in the store. " Mr. Yao said.

Until around 10 pm, Wang returned to the lottery shop, accompanied by a staff member of Huyi District Sports Lottery. I thought that Wang and the staff came to congratulate him, but who thought that Wang told Mr. Yao that the lottery ticket that won the prize of 10 million yuan was not Mr. Yao’s, but was bought for others, and he accidentally sent it to Mr. Yao. Peer staff also confirmed that the winning lottery ticket was issued at 1: 03 pm, while Mr. Yao purchased the ticket at 5: 24 pm.

"Wang’s wife even knelt on the ground and swore that the lottery ticket that won the prize belonged to someone else." Mr. Yao said, "I didn’t talk about a result that night. The next morning, under the coordination of others, I signed an agreement. Wang mistakenly sent me a photo of the winning lottery ticket and compensated me for the mental loss of 150,000 yuan. " After signing the agreement, Mr. Yao deleted the chat record of letting Wang buy lottery tickets on WeChat on July 17 according to the meaning of the other party.

He chose to trust the boss.

Even a little guilty.

I chose to believe because I have known Wang for many years, and Mr. Yao learned from Shaanxi Sports Lottery Management Center that the winning lottery ticket was indeed issued at 1: 03 pm, earlier than the time when he transferred money to Wang WeChat to buy lottery tickets.

Another reason that convinces Mr. Yao is that Wang’s lottery shop not only won this grand prize, but also another person won the first prize and added it, with a winning amount of 18 million. A lottery ticket for sports lottery is two yuan, and the highest prize can be 10 million. If 1 yuan money is added, the highest prize can be 18 million. The Sports Lottery Center put a plaque of 28 million in Xizhong on the lottery shop, and the lottery shop held a lively celebration that day.

Wang once explained to Mr. Yao that the person who won 18 million yuan chose five groups of numbers by himself, made five bets first, and then made five additional bets. A total of 18.02 million won in 5 notes, and 10.01 million won in 5 notes that were not added. The two groups of lottery tickets were purchased by the same person at 1 pm on the same day.

"Many lottery shops haven’t even opened a first prize. Wang’s shop opened two first prizes at the same time, and I believe that these two first prizes are the same person." Mr. Yao said, "And the lottery ticket that Wang sent me on WeChat won 10.01 million, which is exactly the same as another five groups of numbers that won 18.02 million lottery tickets." The more I think about it, the more Mr. Yao feels guilty about it. After all, Wang lost 150,000 yuan to himself because of negligence. We used to know each other so well, but then we looked up and didn’t see each other.

Suspicion resurfaced

The newspaper saw that the winner only bought a lottery ticket.

The days gradually returned to calm, and Mr. Yao began to live in the past. During the day, he made a living by delivering water, and when he was free, he would patronize lottery shops to buy a glimmer of hope for his future. On July 24, 2019, when Mr. Yao selected his favorite number in another lottery shop to prepare for betting, he saw the China Sports Lottery on the table, and there was an article on it that reported the lottery winner of the Xizhong Million Prize in Huyi District. The lottery winner won the grand prize, but only 18.02 million yuan. In an interview, the lottery player said that he only bought a lottery ticket, and five groups of numbers were added. "Who is the remaining 10.01 million? Wang told a lie? The person who won 18.02 million and the person who won 10.01 million are not the same person at all. " Mr. Yao’s suspicion was ignited again. He confronted Wang, but Wang explained that with so much money, can’t people keep a low profile and get it twice? Once the suspicious heart resurfaces, such an explanation simply makes Mr. Yao unconvinced.

"I often went to Wang during that time, and I had to let him explain it to me. In the end, when Wang saw me, he hid, even the door of the lottery shop was not locked, and he left on an electric car. You know, there are still thousands of instant lottery tickets in the store, and he doesn’t want them. " Mr. Yao said, "I have an intuition that Wang is guilty."

The original screenshot left the only evidence.

The lawyer analyzed the facts of buying lottery tickets.

Mr. Yao said that at first he called the police to deal with it, but the police felt that it was a bit awkward and did not know who won the lottery. The police did not accept it. Mr. Yao also looked for Shaanxi Sports Lottery Management Center, but the center often met all kinds of "swindlers" who packaged themselves as winners, and they regarded Mr. Yao as such people.

At the beginning, the chat record with Wang was also deleted. Mr. Yao said that fortunately, the screenshot of WeChat chat record was saved. Not only did he transfer 20 yuan to Wang, but he also said, "Choose Lotto 10 by machine", and then Wang sent two lottery photos with a total of 10 bets. In the photo, two lottery tickets are stacked together, and the lottery ticket that won the 10.01 million grand prize is placed below, and the time of issuing the lottery ticket is naturally covered by the other lottery ticket above.

Yu Shengxiu of Shaanxi Zhizheng Law Firm represented the dispute over the ownership of lottery tickets. "We reasoned according to the existing evidence: at 1 pm on July 17th, someone selected five groups of numbers to pay 15 yuan for the purchase in Wang’s shop, probably because Wang made a mistake in hand and produced a lottery ticket with these five groups of numbers, but the lottery player didn’t want it, so Wang had to re-annotate these five groups of numbers and produced another lottery ticket. This led to Wang’s extra lottery ticket. If no one wants this lottery ticket before the draw, Wang needs to pay for it in 10 yuan. " Yu Shengxiu said, "The profit of the lottery shop is very thin, and the lottery ticket of 10 yuan money can’t get the commission of 1 yuan. At 5 pm, Mr. Yao asked the boss to choose a 10-note lottery ticket on WeChat, and the boss sold the wrong lottery ticket to Mr. Yao to cover the ticketing time. Mr. Yao also recognized these five groups of lottery tickets, so the ownership of the lottery ticket should belong to Mr. Yao."

The day after the court filed the case.

The relatives of the lottery shop owner went to redeem the prize.

On July 31, 2019, Yu Shengxiu, as Mr. Yao’s attorney, sent a letter to Shaanxi Sports Lottery Management Center, saying that the ownership of the lottery ticket with 10 million grand prize had been seriously disputed, and he hoped that Shaanxi Sports Lottery Management Center would suspend the redemption. At the same time, Mr. Yao tried to confirm the lottery through justice. On September 4th of the same year, Huyi District People’s Court accepted Mr. Yao’s lawsuit and put it on file. On the second day after the court filed the case on September 5, Shaanxi Sports Lottery Management Center redeemed the 10 million grand prize and distributed it to the holders of the lottery. The Sports Lottery Center has explained that the redemption period is only 60 days, and the holder of this lottery keeps calling the Sports Lottery Center to urge the redemption. Because the lottery ticket is anonymous, the Sports Lottery Center can only redeem the prize in accordance with the current national laws.

Who took the grand prize? The original defendant in the lottery confirmation case was only Wang, and now the grand prize has been cashed by others. The confirmation case needs an additional defendant. Lawyer Yu Shengxiu applied for an investigation order and learned that the winner of the 10 million grand prize was Gao. After further understanding, Gao turned out to be Wang’s cousin! Mr. Yao said that when he knew this situation, he was more determined to get back the grand prize. "Everyone said that I repeatedly asked the other party for a grand prize, and some people came to make peace and said that I would forget it if I gave it 4 million. But I can’t figure it out. This lottery ticket is obviously mine. Why did others get the grand prize by fraudulent means? "

Both the first instance and the second instance ruled that the store owner lost the case.

But the grand prize hasn’t been shown yet

At the first trial of the Huyi District People’s Court, Wang said that at 5 o’clock in the afternoon of July 17, 2019, Mr. Yao sent a red envelope on WeChat, indicating "machine-selected Lotto 10". When sending lottery photos, he mistakenly sent the lottery ticket purchased by Gao in the afternoon to Mr. Yao. This lottery ticket was originally a lottery ticket with a number chosen by another lottery player at 1 pm that day. Because of the mistake in issuing the ticket for the first time, the ticket was reissued, and finally the extra lottery ticket was resold to Gao, who forgot the lottery ticket at the counter.

During the trial, Gao said that after purchasing the printed lottery ticket on the 17th, he chatted with Wang in the store and left the lottery ticket, cigarettes and lighters in Wang’s store. At 8 o’clock that night, Wang returned the lottery ticket. The prize was awarded on September 5 of the same year.

The court of first instance ruled on May 14th, 2021 that the previous settlement agreement between Wang and Mr. Yao was invalid, and the ownership of the winning lottery ticket belonged to Mr. Yao. Wang and Gao refused to accept the appeal.

In Gao’s appeal, he claimed that the lottery number purchased by the appellant was 065449, winning 10,000 yuan, and the number was 739658, winning 10 million yuan. "The number mentioned in Gao’s appeal is actually the code of the lottery, not the winning number at all. It can be seen that Gao is not a lottery player, and he doesn’t even know how to play the lottery. " Mr. Yao said.

Secondly, in court, Wang’s explanation of Mr. Yao’s transfer to 20 yuan on WeChat was full of contradictions. Wang explained that Mr. Yao gave 10 yuan money and only bought a 5-note lottery ticket. In the payable record, Mr Yao paid 20 yuan to Wang. On October 28th, the Xi ‘an Intermediate People’s Court made a final judgment, and this lottery ticket was owned by Mr. Yao.

Get back the ownership of the lottery ticket

But how can I get my bonus back?

The reporter from Huashang Daily contacted Wang, the owner of the original lottery shop. "I play hundreds of lottery tickets a day, and it is impossible to leave him with this extra lottery ticket until 5 pm." Wang said, "Gao did buy this lottery ticket that day, but the court did not recognize the relevant evidence and finally awarded the ownership to Mr. Yao."

As for what to do next, Wang said that he didn’t know what to do after the court decided. "The judgment is only the ownership of the lottery, not who should be given the ten million prizes. Anyway, I didn’t win the prize and didn’t take the money. It’s his business who Mr. Yao wants money from. " Wang said, "This kind of thing happened in the store, and it was always harassed by Mr. Yao. I couldn’t continue to operate, so I simply transferred it to others." Regarding Mr. Yao’s transfer to 20 yuan WeChat at that time, Wang explained: "At that time, he noted that the lottery machine chose 10, so I thought it was a lottery ticket in 10 yuan. Mr. Yao often buys lottery tickets on credit in the store, and I think the extra money is paid back. " Huashang Daily reporter also tried to contact Gao, but failed.

"I got back the ownership of the winning lottery ticket, but this lottery ticket has been redeemed by Gao. How to get the money back, I have to discuss it with the lawyer again." Mr. Yao said that he intends to report the case of Wang and Gao suspected of fraud to the police in Huyi. "Whether there is an ulterior secret between them can only be investigated by the police."

The lawyer said:

Lottery players have the right to ask the Sports Lottery Center to cash it.

Sports Lottery Center will recover the wrong prize again.

Zhao Liangshan, a senior partner of Shaanxi Hengda Law Firm, believes that although the lottery ticket issuing time involved in the case is around 1 pm and the lottery ticket purchasing time occurs around 5 pm, the shop owner involved in the case deliberately covers the lottery ticket issuing time and is willing to sell the lottery ticket involved in the case to the lottery. As electronic data, WeChat chat records belong to one of the forms of evidence and are protected by law. Therefore, the transaction between the lottery player and the shopkeeper is completed, and the behavior of buying and selling lottery tickets by both parties is established.

Zhao Liangshan said that if the Sports Lottery Center refuses to listen to the advice and insists on cashing the lottery after the lottery reminds the lottery center to suspend the redemption by a lawyer’s letter or other written forms, it shows that there are mistakes in the work of the Sports Lottery Center. If the losses caused by cashing are due, it should be borne by the Sports Lottery Center. Therefore, the Sports Lottery Center cannot be exempted from its obligation to continue cashing the lottery tickets of the lottery players involved in the case.

Zhao Liangshan pointed out that if the court decides that the lottery involved in the case is brought to justice, then the lottery involved in the case will enjoy the benefits generated by the lottery involved in the case according to law, and the lottery involved in the case has the right to ask the Sports Lottery Center to cash it, and the Sports Lottery Center will recover the wrong prize.

Zhao Liangshan said that after investigation, the owner’s relatives did not buy lottery tickets that day, just to gain the benefits of the lottery involved in the case. In order to illegally possess the lottery involved in the case, the owner colluded with his relatives and lied that the lottery involved in the case was purchased by the owner’s relatives, thus defrauding the Sports Lottery Center to cash in. The behavior of the owner and the owner’s relatives violated the Criminal Law and was suspected of fraud. In this regard, the lottery involved in the case can report the case to the local police, and the police will file an investigation.

Revealing the truth of the 100th Army of the Japanese Bacteriological War against China: Why is it little known?

  Xinhua News Agency, Changchun, September 17th Title: Suffering Witness: Revealing the 100th Army of Japanese Bacteriological Warfare invading China.

  Xinhua News Agency reporters Liu Shuo and Zhang Boyu

  The 100th Army of the Japanese invaders (referred to as "the 100th Army" for short) is a mysterious and unfamiliar serial number. During Japan’s invasion of China, this mysterious army under the guise of "epidemic prevention" studied all kinds of deadly bacteria and made bacterial weapons. Countless people were killed, countless animals and plants were reduced to experiments, and the whole northeast and even the whole country were shrouded in the great threat of bacterial warfare.

  Nowadays, the terrible germ warfare has become history, and the historical truth that the Japanese invaders tried to cover up has been uncovered. We should accuse the invaders of their terrible crimes in those years, and remember our compatriots who struggled tenaciously under such threats in those years. These compatriots witnessed the sufferings brought by the 100th Army and fought unyieldingly for the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.

  The "devil" of germ warfare has quietly arrived.

  In August 1945, in a mysterious courtyard near Mengjiatun in the western suburbs of Changchun, many Japanese soldiers were busy burning photos, experimental records and some related materials. There is a terrible fact that has been covered up for many years in the information they tried to burn completely.

  In December 1949, a germ warfare trial presided over by the former Soviet Union revealed the true meaning of the long-hidden 100th Army. According to war criminals Gao Qiao Longdu, Hirasakura Quanzuo, Sanyou and a man, the 100th Army of the Japanese invaders worked to prepare for germ warfare.

  In December 1949, a germ warfare trial presided over by the former Soviet Union revealed the true meaning of the long-hidden 100th Army. According to war criminals Gao Qiao Longdu, Hirasakura Quanzuo, Sanyou and a man, the 100th Army of the Japanese invaders worked to prepare for germ warfare. The secret was revealed.

  According to Liu Long, director of the research center of the Puppet Manchuria Palace Museum, cavalry was once an important arm in the Japanese invasion of China, and a large number of veterinarians were needed to treat and prevent diseases, so a veterinary force was set up to meet such needs. However, with the expansion of Japan’s war of aggression, Japanese invaders need more lethal weapons, which gave birth to their idea of studying bacterial weapons and launching bacteriological warfare. As a result, the infamous 731 unit was born, and at the same time, the "devil" of the 100 th unit quietly began to create evil.

  Zhao Shijian, a researcher at the Puppet Manchurian Palace Museum, found that the predecessor of the 100th Army was the temporary sick horse shelter set up by the Kwantung Army in November 1931. In February 1933, the Kwantung Army Command ordered the temporary sick horse shelter to be reorganized into the temporary sick horse factory of the Kwantung Army, and the site was moved from Fengtian (now Shenyang) to Xinjing (now Changchun). On April 23, 1936, the Chief of Staff of the Kwantung Army, Banyuanzheng Shiro, submitted the "Opinions on Enriching the Soldiers in Manchuria" to the Army Province, proposing "adaptation ‘ Kwantung Army Temporary Sick Horse Factory ’ , making it a research institution for treating injured horses, epidemic prevention and germ warfare countermeasures, newly established ‘ Guandong Army Veterinary Epidemic Prevention Factory ’ (At the time of listing, the official name was ‘ Kwantung Army Horse Epidemic Prevention Factory ’ )”。

  On August 1, 1936, the Kwantung Army Horse Epidemic Prevention Factory was established, marking the formal establishment of the 100th Japanese Army. At the end of 1940, according to the order of the Kwantung Army, this unit adopted a secret serial number, namely the 100th Manchurian Army.

  The cover of animal epidemic prevention, such as horses, was quickly torn down. In 1937, an order document named "Guan Shen Yi Fa No.1877" was officially issued. The commander of the Kwantung Army, Kenji Ueda, ordered Japanese Army Minister Hajime Sugiyama to submit a report on the "Order for Military Bacteriological Research Practitioners" and appointed Kazuo Takashima and others to engage in military bacteriological research. At this point, the 100th Army officially moved from the previously declared epidemic prevention research to the organized national military bacterial research. "This marks that the 100th Army has officially gone to the point of no return of national organized crime." Zhao Shijian said.

  During the existence of the 100th Army, "talons" extended to many places. According to reports, the 100th Army is a systematic germ warfare force, which consists of three parts: the headquarters, the branch factory and the Legion Veterinary Force. The headquarters is composed of the General Affairs Department, the Ministry of Education and the first, second, third and fourth business departments, with branches mainly in Dalian, Mudanjiang and other places. The so-called "Legion Veterinary Unit" is a special germ unit established by combining the 100th unit with the frontline units, such as the 2631st unit of the 20th army and the 2630th unit of the 11th army of the Japanese army.

  While the Japanese invaders were busy secretly studying bacteriological weapons and preparing to launch a bacteriological war, the struggle of anti-Japanese armed forces in Northeast China under the leadership of the Party never stopped. At the same time that the 100th Army was formally established, in Tonghua, Fusong and other northeastern places, the First Army and the Second Army of the Northeast Anti-Union Army dealt a powerful blow to the Japanese invaders. The anti-United team has been growing and growing in successive battles, and the heroic northeast people have also been involved in the torrent of fighting against the brutal rule of the Japanese invaders. This situation has also stimulated the almost crazy invaders, trying to destroy the resistance force with more lethal bacterial weapons.

  Struggle tenaciously in suffering.

  For a long time, Unit 731 of the Japanese invaders was notorious, and its extensive use of human bodies to commit crimes such as bacteria test was appalling. Research shows that the 100th unit, as the "devil brother" of the 731 unit, has more terrorist crimes than the 731 unit.

  However, why has the truth of the 100th Army been little known?

  Zhao Shijian said that the Japanese invaders were worried about the exposure of their crimes after the defeat. On the eve of the defeat, the Japanese Army Province ordered the headquarters of the Kwantung Army to destroy or take away all the information and equipment related to the 100th Army, and the factory building was seriously damaged. According to the investigation data in Changchun after the war, Wang Jun, a citizen who worked as a coachman in the 100th Army, said that he saw someone burning thousands of photos with gasoline in front of the army office at that time, which was obviously destroying evidence.

  The brutal crimes of the 100th Army cannot be burned out. Zhao Lingshi, former party secretary and vice president of Jilin Provincial Museum, has been engaged in related research of the 100th Army since 1980s. Through many visits to witnesses in that year, experts such as Zhao Lingshi uncovered the numerous crimes that this unit has been trying to hide.

  According to Zhao Lingshi, the 100th Army, following the orders of the Japanese Military Department, has devoted its headquarters and its detachments to intense research and development since its completion, in order to research and manufacture germ weapons for germ warfare on animals and plants as soon as possible. All the bacteria that might carry out germ warfare on animals and plants have been studied repeatedly, and finally they have determined that malleolus, anthrax, rinderpest, plague and mottle are the main bacterial weapons.

  Zhao Lingshi said that the 100th Army used a large number of animals for experiments, but it was not used for real epidemic prevention, but for cultivating and manufacturing bacteria. At that time, the 100th Army kept a large number of animals in more than 20 buildings and more than 10,000 square meters, most of which were rats and horses. According to the post-war investigation, the 100th Army bred and acquired tens of thousands of experimental animals such as rats, rabbits and horses every year. Among them, a considerable number of animals such as horses used in experiments were plundered from the families of China people.

  With the gradual deepening of research, experts discovered a more frightening aspect of the 100th Army: conducting human experiments in vivo. After Japan’s defeat, some people near the site of the 100th Army inadvertently discovered the truth. Zhao Lingshi said that in the spring of 1949, when some villagers went to dig horse bones for fertilizer near the site of the 100 th Army, they dug up human bones and dug more and more. The villagers also found a huge body burial site, and the tragic situation could not be described.

  Various sources further prove that the 100th Army once regarded the living as the object of bacteria test. According to the records, Keitaro Ando, a member of the 100th Army and an army veterinary second lieutenant, confirmed that he had witnessed experiments on living people as guinea pigs. After the war, army veterinarians Ohuchi and Takeshi Nishimura of the 100th Army revealed to the Allied Command in Japan that Ruosong Yujiro, the chief of the 100th Army, had conducted a live human experiment. The existing "A Report" and "G Report" in the United States directly point out that the 100th Army had conducted experiments on the efficacy of anthrax and malleolus with human living bodies and conducted cruel vivisection.

  According to the book "Trial Materials of Former Japanese Army Soldiers Accused of Preparing and Using Bacteriological Weapons", three friends and one man, an experimenter of Japanese Army Cao Chang (Staff Sergeant), confessed that he participated in the experiment of using living people to make bacterial infections or poison drugs in the 100th Army. Some people took the experimental poison mixed with food unconsciously, and everyone was asked to eat these toxic foods many times for three friends, one man and others to observe. Sanyou and a man confirmed that, in order to keep secret, the people who were used in the experiment were all killed by injecting toxic substances after the experiment was completed.

  Carrying out germ warfare is an important means for the Japanese army to launch a war of aggression against China. According to experts such as Liu Long, the archives found now prove that the 100th Army once conducted field bacterial tests in Hailar and other places, and also participated in the delivery of solutions and bacterial bombs containing virulent infectious germs such as plague and cholera to the Soviet Union in the Battle of Nomenkan. At that time, the plague in some places in Northeast China was also proved to be related to the 100th Army.

  In the northeast trampled by the invaders, innocent civilians and soldiers who fought against the Japanese invaders became victims of germ warfare. In such suffering and threats, the sons and daughters of China are still tenacious and unyielding to resist. Yang Jingyu, Cao Yafan, Wei Zhengmin, Zhou Baozhong, Zhao Shangzhi and other famous anti-Japanese soldiers and people with lofty ideals made the Japanese invaders restless with immortal struggles and great sacrifices, and finally led these beasts to their demise.

  The cruel past will always be remembered

  In 1925, representatives of 37 countries signed the Protocol for the Prohibition of the Use of Asphyxiating, Poisonous or Other Gases and Bacteriological Methods of Warfare (Geneva Protocol), and Japan was a signatory. However, the Japanese invaders trampled on their original promises in the war.

  "Japan studied and used a large number of bacterial weapons in the war of aggression against China, which not only caused a large number of casualties among residents, but also left great psychological trauma to the victims and destroyed the natural environment." Liu Long said. According to reports, some bacterial weapons released by the 100th Army at that time not only infected and killed a large number of people and animals, but also polluted rivers, grasslands and forests. On the eve of the defeat, the Japanese invaders who fled in haste did not forget to release some animals infected with germs in the experimental field to harm innocent people.

  Regrettably, the brutal invaders did not get the punishment they deserved. "In 1945, the 100 th Army was a force of about 940 people, but very few people actually accepted the trial afterwards." Peng Chao, a researcher at the Research Center of the Puppet Manchuria Palace Museum, said. Peng Chao’s research found that most people of the 100th Army returned to Japan after the war, and most of them chose to hide this history except for some people who voluntarily exposed the crimes of the 100th Army in conducting human experiments. Some people even became famous figures in Japanese veterinary science after returning to China. The officers of the 100th Army, Kazuo Takashima, Caisan Kazuhe and Ruosong Yujiro, were not tried after returning to China, but lived a stable life.

  Fortunately, the tenacious anti-Japanese armed forces and the broad masses were not knocked down by bacterial weapons. "This spirit of struggle and national spirit is an indispensable force in beat the devil." Liu Long said that in the face of the horrible germ warfare, the tenacious soldiers and civilians in China did not give in, but won the final victory with a long and arduous struggle, great dedication and selfless and fearless sacrifice.

  Zhao Shijian, a researcher at the Puppet Manchuria Palace Museum, looked up relevant historical materials in the database (photo taken on September 14). Xinhua News Agency reporter Xu Changshe

  The historical truth has not been buried forever. In the 1950s, Changchun organized an investigation into the crimes of the 100th Army and took photos and other materials. In 1950, Changchun New Newspaper published many photos of criminal evidence of the 100th Army. Some people who once worked as laborers in the 100th Army also restored the truth of this "demon army" with their own experiences.

  Now, Changchun has built a ruins garden on the basis of the ruins of the 100th Army, for people to remember that humiliating history. In the Puppet Manchuria Palace Museum, a special research group composed of several researchers has achieved a series of research results. According to the plan, some documents and physical exhibits of that year will be exhibited this winter.

  "We are contacting experts and scholars at home and abroad to carry out relevant research, looking for more historical archives and objects to reveal that little-known history and expose this crime against humanity." Zhao Jimin, vice president of the Puppet Manchuria Palace Museum, said that in the future, the museum will let more people know the far-reaching impact of the Japanese invaders’ germ warfare on the people of the world through digital exhibitions and other means.

  "Today, we study the numerous crimes of the 100th Army in order to let people remember the horrible consequences of the germ warfare in those days and the historical stain left by the Japanese aggressors that can never be erased. Taking history as a mirror, we hope that more people will know this history, love peace more, better inherit our national spirit and struggle spirit, and prevent historical tragedies from repeating themselves. " Zhao ling told the truth.

Compromise with American companies? Biden administration will impose tariffs on China this time or will exempt photovoltaic equipment.

[Text/Observer Network Yan Shanshan] On May 13th, Bloomberg quoted people familiar with the matter as saying that the Biden administration will announce this week that it will impose new tariffs on key strategic industries such as electric vehicles, among which the tariffs on electric vehicles in China will be raised from 27.5% to 102.5%, and other industries will be doubled or tripled.

However, while American companies continue to express their concerns about the possible impact on the photovoltaic industry and warn that tariffs will further weaken the importance of the United States in the clean energy supply chain, sources said that the Biden administration has sent a signal to the US photovoltaic industry that it will exclude products such as production equipment for solar panel components from this tax increase.

Bloomberg said Biden’s plan to impose new tariffs on China was mainly "symbolic" because the targeted industries in China did not depend on American consumers. The White House has not responded to this matter at present.

In response to Biden’s administration’s intention to impose new tariffs on China, China’s Foreign Ministry said on May 10th that it urged the US to abide by WTO rules, cancel all tariffs imposed on China, and even refrain from increasing tariffs.

With the approaching of the US presidential election in November, the political needs of candidates and the anxiety of the United States towards China are increasingly revealed. Democratic candidate Biden and Republican candidate Trump have shown tough stance towards China.

Bloomberg said that after nearly two years of evaluation and review of existing tariff policies, Biden will announce an increase in tariffs on China in target industries this week, which he claimed was aimed at protecting American workers.

According to people familiar with the matter, the Biden administration will raise the tariff on electric vehicles in China from 27.5% to 102.5%. Other target industries will double or triple their tariffs on China. The specific increase rate is not clear at the moment, and it is not clear which goods are excluded. But what is certain is that Biden will not announce any measures to reduce tariffs this time.

According to a person familiar with the matter, Biden and his aides have only finalized the above measures in recent weeks, including which industries need to be suppressed and which key industries that promote US economic growth should be excluded. Finally, the Biden administration reached an agreement.

According to two people familiar with the matter, Biden’s government has sent a signal to the US photovoltaic industry that it will exclude products such as solar panel assembly production equipment from this tax increase.

According to the report, American solar equipment manufacturers have been seeking this exemption, and they warned that the current tariffs weakened the United States’ efforts to compete with China’s clean energy supply chain.

This latest "exemption" rumor reminds people of Biden’s decision last year to continue to implement tariff exemption for photovoltaic products in four Southeast Asian countries. In May last year, Biden vetoed a new bill of the US Congress asking the US government to end tariff exemption for photovoltaic products in Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam.

Biden said at the time that he did this because the United States could not afford the new uncertainty brought by this to American enterprises and workers in the photovoltaic industry, and the United States would continue to focus on expanding American production capacity to strengthen American energy security.

On the issue of tariffs on China, both Biden and Trump tried to use tariff weapons to attack China in key industries. For example, the two parties recently formed a "consensus" on suppressing electric vehicles in China. The only difference is that Biden followed most of the tariffs of the Trump administration and tried to raise the tariffs of target industries; Trump is seeking to increase tariffs on goods from China in general, and advocates to increase tariffs on electric vehicles from China even more. The latter is suspected to be too radical and will lead to inflation.

On May 11th, local time, Trump claimed at a campaign rally in New Jersey that if he was re-elected to the White House, he would impose a 200% tariff on cars made in Mexico by China enterprises, and threatened to impose a 60% tariff on all goods in China.

Bloomberg reported that Biden’s plan to impose new tariffs on China is mainly "symbolic", because China industries included in the tax increase scope do not depend on American consumers. Many years ago, China’s electric vehicles were blocked from the American market because of tariff barriers, while photovoltaic companies mostly exported to the United States through other countries to avoid similar restrictions.

Greta Peisch, former chief trade lawyer of the Office of the US Trade Representative and a partner of Wiley Rein LLP, a Washington law firm, said that the Biden administration has been "paying attention to industries with long-term concerns", and these measures are aimed at dealing with specific activities and risks, avoiding escalation, and maintaining the relationship between the United States and China "beyond these key products".

Paishi said that the Biden administration’s approach reflects its goal of "aiming at China while maintaining US-China relations". "This is strategic, not a comprehensive upgrade, but a response to China and support for the affected American industries."

The White House has not responded to the imposition of new tariffs on China.

According to people familiar with the matter, Biden will target key industries such as electric vehicles, batteries, solar cells, steel and aluminum. Last month, Biden smeared China with the so-called "overcapacity theory", saying that he would raise the average tariff rate on steel and aluminum products in China from 7.5% to 25%.

According to Bloomberg, Biden’s move is not so much aimed at cracking down on market segments as at preventing the expected import growth: China’s steel, aluminum and automobiles currently account for only a small part of the US supply chain.

For a long time, the Biden administration has been exaggerating the so-called "threat" of China products, claiming that China is promoting "monopoly on key industries" and speculating that China’s "subsidized goods" will enter the US market in large quantities. While the United States is implementing the Inflation Reduction Act and seeking economic decarbonization, it constantly accuses China of "overcapacity" in the field of new energy.

In this regard, China Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said in April that the capacity of China’s new energy industry is an advanced capacity urgently needed to promote green development, not an excess capacity. According to the calculation of the International Energy Agency, in order to achieve the goal of carbon neutrality, the global sales of new energy vehicles need to reach about 45 million by 2030, 4.5 times that of 2022, and the demand for photovoltaic installed capacity also needs to increase substantially. The key problem facing the world today is not the overcapacity of new energy, but a serious shortage. The rapid development of new energy industry in China conforms to economic laws and market principles, not the result of subsidies. It is hoped that the countries concerned will keep an open mind, earnestly abide by the principles of market economy and international economic and trade rules, and provide a fair, transparent, open and non-discriminatory business environment for China enterprises.

Regarding the Biden administration’s decision to impose new tariffs on China’s key strategic industries, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said at a regular press conference on May 10th that the previous US administration imposed tariffs of 301 on China, which seriously interfered with the normal economic and trade exchanges between China and the United States and was ruled by the WTO to be in violation of WTO rules. Instead of correcting the wrong practices, the United States continues to politicize economic and trade issues, abusing the so-called 301 tariff review procedure, and wants to further increase tariffs, which adds to the mistakes. China urges the United States to abide by the WTO rules, cancel all tariffs imposed on China, and must not increase tariffs. China will take all necessary measures to defend its own rights and interests.

New film: Aladdin opens with 86.1 million surprises. Booksmart has a good reputation.


Aladdin, an animated adaptation of the live-action film produced by Disney Pictures, tells the story of a romantic encounter between a kind poor boy Aladdin and a brave Jasmine in the ancient Arab kingdom. With the help of a genie who can satisfy his master’s three wishes, they embark on a magical adventure to find true love and self.


The film was opened on a large scale in 4,476 venues in North America, and it topped the box office list with a score of $86.1 million, which was roughly the same as that in the first week of 2016, and was better than that released in the same period last year (the opening of the first week was $84 million). Compared with Disney’s animated adaptation of the live-action movie Dumbo, which was released on March 29th this year (with an opening of $49.9 million in the first week), the box office performance has also been greatly improved. Disney has suffered a lot in terms of box office and word-of-mouth in recent years in the live-action movie out of the Marvel universe, but this movie has slightly turned the situation around at the box office, and it is expected to be ranked fifth in the Memorial Day weekend box office list. In the international market, "Aladdin" has been painted in major mainstream markets except Japan. The first day’s box office is expected to be 120 million US dollars, while the three-day performance will reach 207 million US dollars. Among them, China was the most outstanding region, with a box office of $18.7 million in the first week.


The horror movie "Magic Child" was released in 2,607 venues, ranking fifth on the list with a score of 7.53 million US dollars. The film tells the story of a childless rural couple who picked up a baby from a spaceship near their home and raised it, and gradually found that the child was a little different, and various supernatural abilities appeared in him. With the R-rating, the film beat another new film, Booksmart, a campus comedy produced by UA, which came in sixth place with a score of $6.5 million.


It is reported that the film "Magic Child" costs about 6 million dollars. Although the first week’s performance is lower than the expected 8 million dollars, the media expects that the final box office will stop at 30 million dollars. In the international market, the film was also opened in nearly 50 regions, with a total of $7.8 million in three days. Booksmart’s $6.5 million achievement is consistent with the producer’s expectation. At the same time, the film appeared on the eve of painting with the excellent reputation of 100% freshness of rotten tomatoes, and also won the most praise among the three films opened this week. At the age of the audience, 61% of the women watched the film, and 79% of the audience were under 35.


Recommended star rating of Aladdin: ★★★

"Magic Boy" recommended star rating: ★★★

Booksmart: ★★★★★


The media reputation of Aladdin was lifted on the eve of its release. At present, the comprehensive media score of MTC is 54 below the passing line, the freshness of rotten tomatoes will be 57% from 83% at the beginning, and the score of IMDb is only 7.3. From the perspective of bad reviews, The Wrap said: "The new version reinterprets the original story in a new form and is pleasing, but it is somewhat perfunctory." The Seattle Times said: "The movie has all the elements it should have: flying carpet, magic lamp and lamp god. But it is a pity that Aladdin lacks real magic. " NPR pointed out: "From Disney’s point of view, an acceptable Aladdin may meet the criteria for restarting the series, because it echoes the fun of the original animation, but the audience has the right to expect more." In terms of praise, some media mentioned that will smith, who plays the magic lamp, played a beneficial role in the film. USA-Today commented: "The film adaptation lost some charm, and the arrival of Will Smith made up for it."


The MTC media score of Magic Boy is 45, rotten tomato index is 59%, and IMDb is 6.7. The film critic of new york Magazine simply said, "I hope there are more magic children in the film", which may mean that the film doesn’t handle the relationship between the protagonists properly. The Chicago Sun Times said: "The premise of the film hypothesis is attractive, but it shows another slashing film with stupid victims." Contrary to the low reputation of the above two new films, Booksmart scored 85 MTC85 points and 97% rotten tomato freshness index. The Globe and Mail said: "Booksmart is a love letter to any young woman." The film critic said: "Director Wilde basically told a story about how young people live and enjoy life and enjoy the outside world. Its description is so real and close to us."


Old film: "Prepare for War" has a good momentum, and "Dumbo" has picked up the momentum.


In terms of old films, keanu reeves’s "Prepare for War" ranked second with a score of $24.35 million, with a decline rate of 57%, with a cumulative box office account of more than 100 million in ten days. The film’s box office is expected to exceed $6 million on Monday, so it will exceed $30 million this holiday weekend. This week’s performance has also made "Prepare for War" surpass the final box office of the first two films (both of which have not exceeded 100 million yuan), and it is not surprising that Lionsgate has scheduled the fourth film in this series to be released in May 2021. In fact, the box office trend of "Prepare for War" is roughly the same as that of "Prepare for War" and will eventually reach $200-300 million.


Disney’s success this week also comes from "Reunion 4". Although the film slipped to the third place, the good momentum of collecting 16.8 million at the box office remained undiminished. The film will earn $22 million this holiday weekend, and the local cumulative box office will exceed 800 million, which also makes the film join hands to become the only local film with a box office exceeding 800 million. However, the media predicts that it will be difficult for the film to break the $936 million score of Star Wars 7. Pokémon Detective Pikachu slipped to fourth place, taking in $13.3 million last Wednesday, and the cumulative box office exceeded $116 million. In addition, due to the release of Aladdin, Dumbo, which was released at the end of March this year, broke into the 11th place from the 18th place outside the circle, soaring by 238% with a score of $1.04 million, and the cumulative box office has reached 112 million.
