On January 25th, the State Council Press Office held a press conference, and the relevant person in charge of the General Administration of Financial Supervision introduced that up to now, the balance of real estate development loans and personal housing loans in China was 12.3 trillion yuan and 38.3 trillion yuan respectively. In 2023, Chinese banks issued 3 trillion yuan of development loans and 6.4 trillion yuan of housing mortgage loans respectively, which add up to nearly 10 trillion yuan. In addition, in 2023, banks also provided real estate enterprises with M&A loans and stock extension loans, which add up to more than 1 trillion yuan.

As for Baojiaolou, by the end of 2023, most of the 350 billion yuan special loan for Baojiaolou has been put into the project, and commercial banks have also provided corresponding commercial supporting financing to ensure the completion of the task of Baojiaolou.

The relevant person in charge of the General Administration of Financial Supervision said that in order to maintain the stable and healthy development of the real estate market, the following main tasks will be focused on in the near future:

First, accelerate the implementation of the coordination mechanism of urban real estate financing. Under the coordination mechanism led by the city government, according to the principle of fairness, the list of real estate projects that can be given financing support is pushed to financial institutions within their respective administrative areas. Financial institutions shall evaluate the support objects pushed by the coordination mechanism according to the principles of marketization and rule of law, and actively meet the reasonable financing needs for projects with normal development and construction, sufficient collateral, reasonable assets and liabilities and guaranteed repayment sources; For projects that encounter temporary difficulties in development and construction, but the funds can be balanced, we should not blindly draw loans, pressure loans or cut off loans, but give greater support through the extension of existing loans, adjustment of repayment arrangements and new loans.

The second is to guide financial institutions to implement the management requirements for operating property loans. The Notice on Doing a Good Job in the Management of Operating Property Loans was issued on January 24th. The Notice allows banks to issue operating property loans. For real estate development enterprises with standardized operation and good development prospects, the operating property loans issued by national banks to these real estate enterprises can be used to repay their stock loans and open market bonds before the end of this year.

Third, we should continue to provide financial services for individual housing loans. Support local city governments and housing construction departments, further optimize individual housing loan policies such as down payment ratio and loan interest rate due to city policies, and guide and urge banks to better serve the financing needs of the broad masses of people’s rigid and improved housing.

The fourth is to guide and require banks and other financial institutions to vigorously support the construction of "three major projects" such as "emergency and emergency" major infrastructure and urban village reconstruction, and to form physical workload as soon as possible.

　　Xinhua News: The 41st American Super Bowl Finals started in the drizzle in Miami on the 4th. The Indianapolis Colts came from behind, beating the Chicago Bears 29-17 to win the Vince Lombardi Cup.

　　In America, rugby is called American football. Founded in 1920, the NFL reached a merger agreement with its main competitor, the American Football League (AFL), who is 40 years younger than it, in 1966, and decided that the champions of the two leagues would hold a "World Championship" every year. In 1970, after the NFL, the Super Bowl became synonymous with the finals.

　　In the first quarter, the bears played well in attack and defense, leading by 14: 6. However, in the second quarter, the colts stepped up their attack. Organized by the famous quarterback Manning, they tied 10 points in a row and ended the first half with 16: 14. In the third quarter, the two sides were basically in a stalemate, and the colts and bears only scored 6 points and 3 points by shooting.

　　In the fourth quarter, the colts basically grasped the initiative on the field and extended their lead to 12 points. The energetic bears launched an active attack in the final stage, but failed to turn the score card again in the face of the colts’ solid defense.

　　Although there is only one American football game, it is a festival for American football fans in the United States and even the whole world. Tens of millions of American families watch the live broadcast of the game, and tens of millions of Americans go out to attend various parties.

It is predicted that there will be no severe weather such as low temperature, freezing rain and snow in China during the Spring Festival holiday in 2023 (from New Year’s Eve to the sixth day), and cold air activities will be frequent, with large temperature fluctuations in the central and eastern regions, obvious cold temperatures in eastern and northeastern Inner Mongolia, and extreme cold in some areas. In many places in the south, there will be rain to welcome the Spring Festival, and there will be rain around New Year’s Eve, the first day and the fifth day, so it is necessary to pay attention to travel safety.

　　The cold air in the north is frequently disturbed, and it will be extremely cold in the northeast and other places.

　　The Central Meteorological Observatory predicts that there will be no severe weather such as low temperature, rain, snow and freezing in China during the Spring Festival holiday. There are frequent cold air activities in the central and eastern regions; Most areas in the north are dominated by sunny to cloudy weather, and the average temperature is 1 to 3 C lower than normal. There was a large-scale light rain in the southern region, and the average temperature was about 1℃ higher than normal.

　　It will be extremely cold in parts of Inner Mongolia and Heilongjiang.Affected by the cold vortex, the temperature in eastern and northeastern Inner Mongolia is obviously low during the Spring Festival, and there will be a large number of areas with the lowest temperature this winter. Many places in central and northern Heilongjiang and eastern Inner Mongolia may also break the historical record of low temperature since 1951.

　　Among them, Harbin, the capital of Heilongjiang Province, has the highest temperatures of only -23℃ and -24℃ in the first and second days, which will hit a new low this winter, and the lowest temperature will drop to -35℃, which shows the strength of the northern winter. The lowest temperature in the Tuli River in eastern Inner Mongolia is -49℃ for four consecutive days, which is extremely cold. Since 1951, the local minimum temperature has reached below -49℃ for only two days. The small partners in these areas must prepare the thickest equipment for the New Year and be fully armed to keep warm and cold.

　　The temperature in most parts of northwest China and northern North China is low, with little rain and snow.In addition to the Northeast, the temperature during the Spring Festival in most parts of the northwest and northern North China will be lower than normal, with the highest temperature hovering around the freezing point and the lowest temperature dropping to around -10℃. In addition, rain and snow are scarce in these areas, so it is necessary to replenish water and prevent dryness in time while keeping warm and cold during the Spring Festival.

　　There was haze in the south-central part of North China and the early days of Huanghuai holiday.The cold air on New Year’s Eve and the first day affects the intermission, and the atmosphere is quiet and stable. Haze weather may occur in central and southern North China, Huanghuai and other places. With the arrival of cold air on the second day, the air quality has improved.

　　Large-scale rainfall in the south is disturbing, and the southwest of South China is wary of heavy fog

　　Rain opens in most holidays in the south.Most areas in the south will encounter precipitation on New Year’s Eve and the first day, and the intensity is weak. Among them, there may be sleet or light snow in the higher altitude areas in western Hubei; From the second day to the fourth day, the weather turns fine, and only the eastern part of the southwest may have scattered weak precipitation, but due to the spread of cold air southward, there may be a temperature drop of 4 to 6 C; Before and after the fifth day, the rain in the south will increase again, and Spring Festival travel rush’s return trip may be affected.

　　This year, with the adjustment of epidemic prevention and control policies, many people who work outside the home have chosen to return home for the New Year. At this time, epidemic prevention cannot be completely relaxed. On the way home, personal protection is still necessary, and wearing a mask is essential; At the beginning of returning home, we should strengthen self-health monitoring and try to avoid contact with the elderly with basic diseases at home; During the Spring Festival, don’t stay up late, avoid fatigue, don’t drink too much, and don’t overeat.

　　In the next few days, the cold wave will gradually move south, from west to east and from north to south, gradually affecting most parts of China.

　　△ On November 4th, the impact of the cold wave has been highlighted, with cooling in Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia.

　　With the penetration of cold air, the temperature in most parts of the north to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River will hit a new low after autumn, and the situation of abnormally high temperature in the previous period will also change, and the temperature in eastern Inner Mongolia and northeast China will be reversed from significantly high to low.

　　△ National temperature anomaly in the past ten days VS temperature anomaly in the next ten days. From warm to cold.

　　On the evening of the 4 th,The Central Meteorological Observatory issued four early warnings of cold wave, blizzard, strong wind and strong convection.!

　　It is estimated that from 20: 00 on the 4th to 20: 00 on the 7th, the temperature will drop by 6 ~ 10℃ in the central and eastern parts of northwest China,The temperature in central and eastern Inner Mongolia, south-central Northeast China, central and eastern Jianghuai and other places will drop by 12 ~ 14℃, and the local temperature drop in southwestern Jilin, northwestern Liaoning and southeastern Inner Mongolia will reach more than 16℃.; The lowest temperature appeared on the morning of the 7th, and the lowest temperature 0℃ line will be located in northern Hebei, southern Beijing, southwestern Shanxi, Guanzhong Plain in Shaanxi and southeastern Gansu, and the lowest temperature in most areas along the Yangtze River will drop to about 10℃. There are 4 ~ 6 northerly winds in the north of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, with gusts of 7 ~ 9, and the local level can reach 10.

　　The temperature drop is most severe in Northeast China, especially in Jilin, where the drop is generally above 16℃. The highest temperature in Changchun will be 11℃ tomorrow, and it will drop to -5℃ on the 7th, with a cumulative drop of 16℃.

　　The cooling in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River is also very intense. The highest temperature in Shanghai, Hangzhou and other cities is still around 30℃ on the 4th and 5th. In particular, the highest temperature in Hangzhou will reach 31℃ tomorrow, but it will drop to 19℃ on the 6th, and seasonal and cliff-like cooling will be staged.

　　Moreover, this cold wave is still an effort. Although it is a "spent force" to go to Guangdong, it will still cool down Guangdong and send some coolness ~

　　In addition to strong winds and cooling, the cold wave will also bring a wide range of rain and snow weather to China. It is estimated that from 20: 00 on the 4 th to 20: 00 on the 6 th,There have been heavy snowstorms from west to east in the central and eastern Inner Mongolia, the central and western parts of Northeast China and the north, and there have been heavy snowstorms in some areas and local heavy snowstorms.(30 ~ 34 mm), the new snow depth is 10 ~ 20 cm, and the local area can reach more than 25 cm. The main snowfall period is from the night of the 5th to the 6th.

　　The precipitation in eastern and northeastern Inner Mongolia lasts for a long time, and the accumulated precipitation is large, and the precipitation phase is complex. In the early stage, the temperature is high before the rain snows, and the snow will turn from tomorrow night to the day after tomorrow, accompanied by strong winds, and there will be snowstorms in some areas, which is extremely extreme.

　　Why is the snowfall in Northeast China so strong this time? Zhang Juan, a meteorologist of China Weather Network, said that there was a cold vortex at high altitude and the ground cooperated with cyclones, which made the water vapor in the Yellow Sea and the Sea of Japan rise strongly after being involved. The snowfall intensity was rare in early November.

　　Remember the rain and snow process in early November 2021? The daily precipitation of 151 national stations in Northeast China, Inner Mongolia, North China and Huanghuai broke the historical extreme in November. The phase transition of rain and snow in Northeast China is complex, and freezing rain occurs. The snow depth in Inner Mongolia, Jilin and Liaoning is more than 40 cm.

　　Although the scope of rain and snow in Northeast China is not as wide as that in 2021, there will still be rain and snow conversion, and the snow potential is relatively strong.

　　In addition, the Central Meteorological Observatory issued a strong convective warning on the evening of the 4th. It is estimated that from 20: 00 on the 4 th to 20: 00 on the 5 th, there will be 8-10 thunderstorms or hail weather in parts of southern Anhui, south-central Hunan, north-central Jiangxi, southern Guizhou and northwestern Guangxi; There will be short-term heavy precipitation in parts of central and southern Anhui, eastern Hubei, most of Hunan, central and northern Jiangxi, southeastern Chongqing, eastern and southern Guizhou, northwestern Guangxi, southwestern Guangdong, Hainan Island and other places, with a maximum hourly rainfall of 20-30 mm and a local area of more than 50 mm.

　　The heavy snowfall in Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning, coupled with the superposition effect of previous snowfall, has a medium and high risk of snowstorm and low-temperature rain, snow and freezing disasters. Relevant departments and the public should pay attention to the traffic congestion or accidents that may be caused by snow and ice on road sections, and agriculture and animal husbandry should pay attention to preventing the possible adverse effects of heavy snowfall; Strong convection and strong cooling in the south are coming, and the public should also pay attention to prevention.

　　"This is a profound tragedy and a multi-level global anti-epidemic failure." On September 14th, The Lancet, an internationally renowned medical journal, published a research report on the COVID-19 epidemic, clearly pointing out that the World Health Organization and most governments were too slow to respond to the COVID-19 epidemic, and many failed policies led to millions of avoidable deaths.

　　"Lessons Learned by The Lancet Members from the New Crown Epidemic" Screenshot of The Lancet magazine website.

　　According to public information, the The Lancet COVID-19 Epidemic Committee, which wrote this report, was established in July 2020, and its members include 28 global experts from public policy, international cooperation, epidemiology, vaccinology, economics, mental health and other fields. The Committee also supervised the work of 12 thematic groups composed of 173 experts.

　　The report criticized the performance of the World Health Organization (WHO) in the early stage of the outbreak of COVID-19, arguing that the organization was "too cautious and slow" in warning Covid-19’s interpersonal communication ability, listing the new epidemic as a "public health emergency of international concern" and supporting the public to wear masks.

　　The report also pointed out that the governments of most countries and regions in the world were also too slow to recognize the importance of the COVID-19 epidemic in time and take countermeasures. Although countries are highly interdependent, most governments have insufficient policy coordination to curb the epidemic. "As a result, millions of avoidable deaths have been caused and the process of sustainable development in many countries has been set back."

　　The report specifically mentions that before 2019, it is generally believed that the United States and Britain have the strongest ability to cope with the epidemic, and China and other western Pacific countries have lower scores. However, after the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, the actual situation was completely contrary to expectations. These western Pacific countries took timely response measures and generally implemented policies to contain the epidemic.

　　The Lancet magazine’s COVID-19 Epidemic Committee pointed out that according to the report of the Institute of Health Indicators Assessment (IHME) of the University of Washington, as of the end of May this year, the number of deaths reported by COVID-19 epidemic worldwide exceeded 6.9 million. However, considering that a large number of deaths have not been officially counted, the agency estimates that the actual death toll may reach more than 17.2 million.

　　"This amazing figure is a profound tragedy and a multi-level global failure." "Too many governments have failed to abide by the basic principles of institutional rationality and transparency, too many people have failed to respect and oppose basic public health preventive measures, and too many countries have failed to cooperate to control the epidemic," the Committee wrote in its report.

　　On September 21, 2021, a white flag was erected in national mall, Washington, USA to commemorate the image of COVID-19’s deceased.

　　With regard to the current spread of virus strains in Omicron, The Lancet also pointed out that most countries prematurely canceled public health policies such as nucleic acid testing, wearing masks and social distance, which will bring high costs, and the extremely high infection rate will also disrupt education and work, bring considerable burden to health services and undermine economic recovery.

　　"At this stage, we should keep in mind three major risks. First of all, future variants may be highly contagious and deadly. Secondly, people who are not vaccinated at present are still vulnerable to morbidity and mortality, and provide opportunities for the virus to spread freely, increasing the risk of dangerous mutations. Finally, the Omicron epidemic shows that even people who are highly vaccinated may have economic chaos. The epidemic will lead to shortage of health and basic industries, suspension of schools, interruption of commercial operations, and hinder the recovery of tourism and international travel. "

　　Based on the reflection on the failure of most countries to fight the epidemic, the The Lancet COVID-19 Epidemic Committee called on the whole world to coordinate efforts to end the COVID-19 epidemic on a fast and fair basis.

　　The recommendations put forward in the report include that countries should implement vaccine strategies aimed at protecting the population on a sustainable basis; Strengthen national health systems and formulate plans to prevent epidemics; Pursue a global strategy to strengthen the R&D and production capacity in all regions of WHO, including low-income areas; Reform WHO, strengthen its functions and substantially increase its budget.

　　Regarding the report published by The Lancet magazine, the World Health Organization responded on September 15th that they agreed with the general recommendations listed by the Committee in the report, which is consistent with WHO’s commitment to strengthen the capacity of epidemic preparedness, prevention and response. However, WHO also claimed that there were several "key omissions and misunderstandings" in the report, especially underestimating the speed and scope of WHO’s handling of the COVID-19 epidemic.

　　Screenshot of WHO statement

　　Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of WHO, said at the press conference on 14th, "We haven’t reached that step yet, but the end point is just around the corner … … But marathoners will never stop when they see the finish line, but will try their best and run harder. Now is the time to run harder to ensure that we cross the finish line and reap the fruits of our hard work. "

　　Regarding the upcoming epidemic situation in autumn and winter, WHO experts believe that there may be a new wave of infection in the future, and urge countries to maintain high vigilance. Maria Van Kerkhoff, technical director of WHO’s health emergency project, said at a news conference on 14th that Covid-19 is still spreading at a high level all over the world, and the actual number of confirmed cases has been underestimated.

　　She predicted that there might be an infection tide caused by Omicron subtype strains or even new mutant strains in different places and at different time points in the future. However, she also stressed that because people already have anti-epidemic tools such as vaccines and antiviral drugs, the new wave of infection does not necessarily mean more new deaths.

　　According to the Financial Times, Jeffery Sachs, the chairman of The Lancet magazine’s COVID-19 Epidemic Committee and a professor at Columbia University, also warned that it was time to "face the grim facts".

　　Sachs pointed out in his report that the COVID-19 epidemic exposed the weakness of the multilateral system based on the United Nations. He believes that these failures mainly stem from vaccine nationalism, inflexibility of intellectual property system and political erosion of multilateral solutions.

　　"Our most basic proposal is to strengthen multilateralism in all key areas such as politics, culture, institutions and finance." Sachs wrote, "We call on all countries, especially the richest and most powerful countries, to support, maintain and strengthen the work of the United Nations system."
