On April 30th, the Shanghai Stock Exchange officially issued nine supporting business rules, including the Rules for the Examination of Stock Issuance and Listing. The relevant person in charge of the Shanghai Stock Exchange answered the reporter’s questions on the formulation and revision of the rules. The main contents are as follows:

1. Please introduce the general situation of the business rules issued this time.

A: The Shanghai Stock Exchange has revised and issued nine business rules, including five major business rules, such as the Rules for the Examination of Stock Issuance and Listing, and four supporting business rules and guidelines. Specifically, it includes three categories: first, six rules for review of issuance and listing, second, one rule for underwriting of issuance, and third, two rules for continuous supervision, namely, the Main Board and science and technology innovation board Stock Listing Rules.

In addition, the Shanghai Stock Exchange is formulating other business rules to revise and implement the new "National Nine Articles" and will release them to the market as soon as possible.

II. What are the considerations for the revision of the Interim Provisions on the Declaration and Recommendation of the Issuance and Listing of Enterprises in science and technology innovation board?

A: In order to better support and encourage "hard-tech" enterprises to issue and list in science and technology innovation board, strengthen the requirements of science and technology attributes, and further highlight the characteristics of "hard-tech" in science and technology innovation board, the China Securities Regulatory Commission recently revised the "Guidelines for the Evaluation of Science and Technology Attributes (Trial)", and the Shanghai Stock Exchange simultaneously revised the "Interim Provisions on the Reporting and Recommendation of the Issuance and Listing of Enterprises in science and technology innovation board".

First, improve the evaluation criteria of science and technology innovation board science and technology innovation attributes, and strengthen the key indicators to measure scientific research investment, scientific research achievements and growth. Adjust the amount of R&D investment in the last three years from "accumulated above 60 million yuan" to "accumulated above 80 million yuan", adjust "more than 5 invention patents applied to the company’s main business" to "more than 7 invention patents applied to the company’s main business and able to be industrialized", and adjust the compound growth rate of operating income in the last three years from "reaching 20%" to "reaching 25%" In the exception clause, "there are more than 50 invention patents (including national defense patents) that form core technologies and are applied to the main business", and the requirement of "industrialization" of invention patents is simultaneously increased.

The second is to focus on promoting the needs of scientific and technological innovation and compact the recommendation responsibility of sponsors. Sponsors are required to conform to the national strategy and industrial policy orientation, base themselves on promoting the development of new-quality productive forces, implement the concept of high-quality development, accurately grasp the positioning of science and technology innovation board, and recommend "hard-tech" enterprises with key core technologies, outstanding scientific and technological innovation ability, outstanding transformation and application ability of scientific research achievements, prominent industry position or high market recognition, and strong growth to apply for science and technology innovation board.

3. What amendments have been made to the Guidelines for the Acceptance of Application Documents?

A: The new "National Nine Articles" clearly points out that the sudden "clearance dividend" before listing should be included in the negative list of issuance and listing, and the Shanghai Stock Exchange’s Application Guide No.1 — — The Acceptance of Application Documents has been revised, and a negative list of issuance and listing has been added to clarify the requirements of relevant application documents. The sponsor shall issue special verification opinions on whether the issuer, its actual controller and the "key minority" such as Dong Jiangao have a significant negative reputation, and whether the issuer has a surprise "clearance" dividend, and include the verification opinions in the scope of the declaration documents.

The aforementioned "Assault ‘ Clearance type ’ The standard of "dividend" is: the cumulative dividend amount in the three years of the reporting period accounts for more than 80% of the net profit in the same period; Or during the reporting period, the cumulative dividend amount in the three years accounts for more than 50% of the net profit in the same period and the cumulative dividend amount exceeds 300 million yuan. At the same time, the total proportion of replenishment and repayment of loans in the raised funds is higher than 20%.

4. What arrangements have been made for the revision of the Guidelines for On-site Supervision in order to further compact the "gatekeeper" responsibility of intermediaries?

A: Shanghai Stock Exchange’s Guidelines for the Application of the Rules for the Examination of Issuance and Listing No.3 — — On-site supervision has been revised, focusing on the following three aspects.

The first is to clarify the principle of "one supervisor to the end". In order to strengthen the warning and shock of strict supervision, it is clear that the withdrawal of the application by the issuer or the withdrawal of the sponsorship by the sponsor will not affect the implementation of the supervision work, nor will it affect the handling of the problems found by the supervision according to the regulations.

The second is to broaden the coverage of on-site supervision. Increase the "random sampling" on-site supervision mode, randomly select the accepted projects according to the evaluation results of the practice quality of the sponsors oriented by the quality of listed companies, and start on-site supervision for sponsors. It is clear that after the deliberation at the meeting of the Listing Audit Committee and before the listing of stocks or depositary receipts, if there are any matters that have a significant impact on the issuer’s compliance with the issuance conditions, listing conditions or information disclosure requirements, the Exchange may start on-site supervision as needed.

The third is to strengthen self-discipline supervision in on-site supervision. Strengthen the self-discipline and punishment of illegal intermediaries and practitioners, urge them to better perform the responsibility of verification and check, clarify the heavier handling situation, and emphasize that sponsors, securities service institutions and their related personnel refuse, hinder or evade the on-site supervision of the Exchange, and falsely report, conceal or destroy relevant evidence, and the Exchange may give disciplinary punishment to the application documents and information disclosure documents submitted or signed by them within a certain period of time.

5. Please briefly introduce the situation that the Stock Listing Rules set up strong restraint measures for dividend failure?

A: This revision of the rules introduces the "other risk warning" (ST) measures for cash dividends that are not up to standard, with the aim of urging companies to return investors with stronger constraints. Unlike "delisting risk warning" (*ST), listed companies will not be delisted just because dividends are not up to standard.

Dividends are not up to standard, and the ST situation is implemented. For the companies that have made profits in the last year and the undistributed profits at the end of the parent company’s statements are positive, the overall dividend situation in the past three years is evaluated. When the accumulated dividend ratio and dividend amount in the last three years do not meet the requirements (that is, the company whose net profit in the last fiscal year is positive and the undistributed profits at the end of the parent company’s statements are positive, the total accumulated cash dividends in the last three fiscal years are lower than 30% of the average annual net profit in the last three fiscal years, and the accumulated cash dividends in the last three fiscal years are lower than 5,00 The repurchase cancellation amount is included in the above cash dividend amount. The index design takes into account the investor’s return demand and the company’s sustainable development needs. The company can independently make dividend plans according to the company’s profit and cash flow during the three-year evaluation period. In addition, the rules fully consider the large R&D investment of science and technology innovation board enterprises and make differentiated arrangements.

When setting specific indicators this time, various factors that affect the dividends of listed companies, such as undistributed profits and profitability, are comprehensively considered. It is expected that a large number of companies will not be implemented ST because the cash dividends are not up to standard. Based on the data of 2022, the number of companies involved in Shanghai stock market is about 30. The rule will be officially implemented on January 1, 2025. The first "last three fiscal years" refers to the year from 2022 to 2024, and the companies involved still have time to improve their dividends. After the formal implementation of the rules, it will promote more companies to return investors with real money.

6. What arrangements does the Shanghai Stock Exchange have for the implementation of the new delisting rules?

A: Based on the feedback from the market, the Shanghai Stock Exchange further explained the formulation and subsequent implementation of the rules:

The first is to clear out accurately and advance steadily. In the case of financial delisting, the operating income index has been tightened, and the market situation and sector differences have been comprehensively considered; Adjust the delisting index of the main board market value category, and fully evaluate the current market situation; Revising the delisting situation of normative and major illegal categories reflects the scientific setting and the orientation of cracking down on fraud. Judging from the overall impact assessment, this revision of delisting rules is aimed at "empty-shell zombies" and "black sheep" as a whole, reflecting "all should be retired" and highlighting the quality and value of listed companies, not at "small-cap stocks". At the same time, the implementation of the rules has set up a new and old cut-off arrangement to ensure a smooth transition, severely crack down on companies that have been faking for many years and companies that have occupied the funds of controlling shareholders and will not be rectified, clarify the investor expectations of delisting risk companies, and strengthen risk disclosure.

The second is to increase efforts and be strict according to law. The revision of delisting rules focuses on cracking down on vicious violations of laws and regulations such as financial fraud and capital occupation. For major illegal delisting, a multi-level and three-dimensional delisting situation has been formed. On the basis of initial public offering fraud, reorganization of fraudulent public offering, fraud to avoid financial delisting and serious damage to the interests of the state and the public, this revision tightens the two-year fraud, adds one-year serious fraud and three-year continuous fraud, scientifically sets the scope of application of major illegal delisting, and further increases the crackdown on serious financial fraud. In addition, this time, companies with ineffective internal control and funds occupied by controlling shareholders will also be strictly delisted. In particular, those who refuse to rectify after repeated occupation and reoccupy after rectification will be resolutely cleared.

The third is to strictly pursue responsibility and strengthen relief. Continue to promote the strengthening of accountability and the protection of investors’ interests. On the one hand, we will resolutely take disciplinary action against delisting companies that violate laws and regulations, and promote the strengthening of administrative, civil and criminal accountability. On the other hand, strengthen the risk disclosure of delisting risk companies, and promote the comprehensive use of representative litigation and advance payment to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of investors if there are false records and other behaviors that infringe on the interests of investors.

In the follow-up, the Shanghai Stock Exchange will earnestly shoulder the main responsibility of delisting implementation, conscientiously perform important duties such as delisting decision-making, information disclosure supervision and transaction monitoring, strengthen delisting supervision, and promote the formation of a normalized delisting pattern that should be retired and cleared in time.

7. What specific measures will the Shanghai Stock Exchange take to strengthen restructuring supervision and reduce the value of "shell" resources?

A: In order to prevent the "empty shell zombies" and "black sheep" who should be cleared out from cashing out, avoiding delisting, disrupting market order and harming the interests of small and medium-sized investors by means of "flickering" restructuring, "three highs" mergers and acquisitions, and blind cross-border acquisitions, the new "National Nine Articles" clearly require strengthening the supervision of mergers and acquisitions and further reducing the value of "shell" resources. In the next step, the Shanghai Stock Exchange will carefully supervise the major asset restructuring of "shell" companies, and strictly supervise companies that have been "delisting risk warning" (*ST) due to lack of sustainable operation ability, and companies that are on the verge of trading delisting indicators to plan major asset restructuring and prevent illegal "shell protection" and "shell speculation"; Improve the coverage of on-site inspection for major asset restructuring of other *ST, ST and other companies, and effectively control the quality of the underlying assets.

While strengthening the supervision of the restructuring of "shell" companies, policy measures such as improving the "small and fast" audit mechanism, appropriately improving the valuation inclusiveness of M&A targets, and encouraging listed companies to absorb mergers have been implemented one after another, and the market policy environment for M&A and restructuring has been continuously optimized. In order to support leading enterprises in the industry to efficiently acquire high-quality assets, listed companies with high quality and large market value will be quickly reviewed according to the provisions of Article 43 of the Audit Rules for Major Asset Restructuring, so as to give full play to the market function of mergers and acquisitions to optimize resource allocation. In the next step, the Shanghai Stock Exchange will continue to support listed companies to implement standardized restructuring transactions, and promote companies to inject high-quality assets and enhance investment value.

8. What arrangements has the Shanghai Stock Exchange made for the implementation time of the new rules?

A: In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the newly formulated revised rules, the Shanghai Stock Exchange will make the following arrangements according to the characteristics of the rules and regulations and with reference to market opinions and suggestions:

First, the audit rules will be implemented as of the date of promulgation. The provisions of the original audit rules shall apply to the first project that has passed the deliberation of the Shanghai Municipal Committee; The first project that fails to pass the deliberation of the Shanghai Municipal Committee shall meet the requirements of the new main board listing conditions and science and technology attributes.

Second, underwriting rules will come into force as of the date of promulgation. The lead underwriter and other investment value research report writing institutions shall write and provide investment value research reports in accordance with the requirements of the Guidelines on Matters Concerned in Investment Value Research Reports.

The third is the continuous supervision rules, which will be implemented as of the date of promulgation. In order to realize the smooth implementation of new regulations such as dividend distribution and delisting to the greatest extent and better protect the rights and interests of investors, the Shanghai Stock Exchange has made specific arrangements for the implementation time of dividend distribution and delisting (including four types of mandatory delisting) in the notice issued by the main board and science and technology innovation board, which has drawn the attention and knowledge of listed companies and investors.

　　Recently, the reporter learned from the Baise Border Management Detachment in Guangxi that they cracked a serious smuggling case, seized 230 "three non-"foreigners, arrested 50 organized transporters and destroyed 7 criminal gangs. This extra-large smuggling case has a long time span, many people have been arrested, and the first clue of the case is that the van is overcrowded.

　　One day in October, 2022, the police at Tongling border checkpoint in Jingxi, Guangxi, found a suspicious van during routine inspection.

　　Guangxi Baise Border Management Detachment Jingxi Brigade Immigration Management Police
Pang Jiaxing: A mini-car has transported 21 people, and the car is full of heads, which is very suspicious. We asked everyone on the bus to come down for inspection. They were all foreigners and they were very nervous because they didn’t speak Chinese. According to work experience, we know that these people are "three non-"foreigners.

　　The "three non-"foreigners refer to foreigners who enter the country illegally, reside illegally and are employed illegally. After the van was found to be overloaded with "three non-"foreigners, the police at the border checkpoint followed the line and successively seized eight batches of 78 "three non-"foreigners who illegally entered the country to work. After a surprise trial, the police found some important clues.

　　Guangxi Baise Border Management Detachment Jingxi Brigade Immigration Management Police
Pang Jiaxing: These foreigners gathered in Fujian and Guangdong first, and then the "snakehead" arranged vehicles. They stayed at the transit point, had payment records in their mobile phones, and took photos when they felt fresh in a place.

　　After the police conducted multiple comparisons on the information in the mobile phone, several "snakeheads" such as Guo Mouquan, Liao Modong and Yao Mouzhi surfaced, and behind the "snakeheads" may involve multiple criminal chains of a cross-border criminal gang.

　　Guangxi Baise Border Management Detachment Law Enforcement Investigation Team Immigration Management Police
Lu Jungu: Through the serial investigation of several cases, we found that these illegal immigrants were smuggled by the same foreign organization (smuggling gang). In order to make huge profits, this gang has been organizing smuggling activities in the border areas of Guangdong, Guangxi and China and Vietnam, seriously undermining social order and endangering border security.

　　The small leader led out the "big boss" and "top snake head" and was arrested.

　　Although the police have seized many stowaways, the real backbone members continue to commit crimes thousands of miles away. They lured drivers at high prices, organized "three non-"personnel to return and smuggle, and people were arrested in Nanning, Guigang and other counties and cities in Guangxi. The task force decided to extend the attack.

　　After surprise trial and extended investigation, the task force has the latest knowledge of the network structure and the relationship between superiors and subordinates of criminal gangs, and Pei, the highest-level "snakehead" in the gang, has surfaced. In view of the complexity of the case and the large number of suspects involved, the National Immigration Bureau listed the case as No.001 supervised case, focusing on investigation.

　　Guangxi Baise Border Management Detachment Jingxi Brigade Immigration Management Police
Pang Jiaxing: The structure of this criminal gang is: first, there are "three non-"foreigners, second, there are transport drivers, third, there are transit points and responsible persons, and fourth, there are foreign "snakeheads".

　　The task of the police at this time is to break down the four-tier structure of the criminal gang layer by layer, and the breakthrough point is the temporary transit point for stowaways. The police have learned that the gang has set up transit points in four key cities, and the transit point in Foshan, Guangdong Province is ripe for arrest.

　　Guangxi Baise Border Management Detachment Jingxi Brigade Immigration Management Police
Pang Jiaxing: We squatted for two days, and a suitable time to close the net was captured together with the person in charge of the transit point, the "three non-"foreigners and the transport driver.

　　Subsequently, the illegal transit dens in Guangzhou, Guangdong and Nanning, Guangxi were successively destroyed by the police. However, the top of the gang, Pei, is still at large and continues to commit crimes.

　　Through close monitoring, the police finally successfully locked Pei’s transit point in Tunbu Town, Chaozhou City, Guangdong Province. The task force immediately cooperated with the public security organs of Chaozhou City to carry out a centralized network-closing operation and arrested Pei, the "snake head", in a rented house.

　　Dig deep, strike hard and completely destroy criminal gangs

　　Pei, a 44-year-old Vietnamese gang member, had been working illegally in China before he was arrested. He hid in a tableware factory in Guangdong, used his identity to collude inside and outside, and gradually formed a gang to commit crimes, and the characteristics of collectivization and chain were obvious. After Pei was arrested, the task force pursued the victory. After nearly eight months of concentrated attack, the case has carried out more than 30 arrests and seized 230 "three non-"foreigners. At present, 230 "three non-"foreigners have been deported after being punished according to law.

　　Guangxi Baise Border Management Detachment Jingxi Brigade Immigration Management Police
Pang Jiaxing: Because he has resources, he was originally a "three non-"personnel and knew where the "three non-"personnel gathered. He is also familiar with Chinese and can communicate with the delivery drivers in China.

　　Pei confessed that he usually attracts customers through some social platforms. At first, Pei only helped stowaways to dock with Vietnamese "snakeheads".

　　As Pei discovered the huge potential benefits, he began to build his own transit point and train his own personnel.

　　According to Pei’s confession, the task force pursued victory, inspected the factories that recruited "three non-"foreigners, and arrested the rest of the behind-the-scenes organizers. After nearly eight months of concentrated attack, the case has carried out more than 30 arrests, seized 230 "three non-"foreigners, arrested 50 organized transporters, smashed 6 transit dens, and 7 criminal gangs integrating overseas recruitment, border leading and transit hiding were completely destroyed.

　　At present, 230 "three non-"foreigners have been deported after being punished according to law, and all the suspects involved have been sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from three years to six months.

　　BEIJING, Dec. 12 (Xinhua) According to Politico, on the 11th local time, John Kirby, strategic communication coordinator of the National Security Council of the White House, said that the Biden administration expressed "concern" about Israel’s previous use of white phosphorus bombs provided by the United States in Lebanon.

　　According to reports, Kirby told reporters on the same day, "We are worried about these reports. We will ask questions to try to learn more. "

　　Prior to Kirby’s remarks, Washington post reported on the 11th that in October, Israel bombed several areas on the Lebanese side of the temporary border between Lebanon and Israel, and used white phosphorus bombs in the attack.

　　Image source: Washington post report screenshot

　　At the time of the attack, a journalist from Washington post found fragments of three 155mm shells in a small village in the southern Lebanese border area. At least four houses in the village were burned and at least nine civilians were injured in the attack. According to the report, the marks on the ammunition fragments show that they were made in Louisiana and Arkansas in 1989 and 1992.

　　Kirby also said on the same day that the white phosphorus bomb has "legitimate military use", which is used for lighting and generating smoke to hide actions. "Obviously, whenever we provide items like white phosphorus bombs to another army, we fully expect that these items will be used for legitimate purposes … … And in accordance with the law of armed conflict. "

　　On the same day, Pentagon spokesman Pat Ryder said that since the outbreak of the new round of conflict between Palestine and Israel on October 7, the United States has not provided Israel with white phosphorus bombs.

　　Asked whether Israel used white phosphorus bombs against Lebanon, Israeli Defense Minister galante said, "The IDF and the entire Israeli security agency have always acted in accordance with international law. This is the way we have acted in the past and in the future. "

Special topic: earthquake-resistant site: the cutest soldier

Topic: A strong earthquake of magnitude 7.8 occurred in Sichuan.

Topic: Love Donation for Earthquake Relief

　　　　The "512" earthquake in Wenchuan, Sichuan Province always touched the hearts of Hunan fire officers and soldiers. At 8: 30 am on May 13th, loaded with the entrustment of 68 million sons and daughters of Hunan Province and the expectations of nearly 5,000 fire officers and soldiers, a 110-member Hunan fire earthquake emergency rescue team set off from Changsha and went straight to the Wenchuan disaster area in Sichuan. Later, two fire earthquake emergency rescue teams were assembled to fly to the disaster area from May 13th to 1,000.

　　　　The fire officers and soldiers at home who were affected by the disaster resolutely challenged.

　　　　During the "5.12" earthquake in Wenchuan, Sichuan Province, the families of hundreds of officers and men in Hunan Province were affected, mainly in officers and men from Sichuan, Shaanxi and Chongqing. Among them, the families of two fire fighters in Changsha detachment were seriously affected, and all the houses in their homes collapsed. One of the officers and men was unable to get in touch with their families.

　　　　However, in the face of the disaster, the fire officers and soldiers were selfless. After learning that they were going to dispatch officers and soldiers to Wenchuan, Sichuan for earthquake relief, the fire officers and soldiers in the whole province strongly demanded to participate in the war. The military and political officials of various cities and States took the initiative to ask for the battle to the captain and political commissar. The remote areas such as Zhangjiajie, Huaihua and Xiangxi also repeatedly requested to participate in the war by telephone. The enthusiasm for participating in the war was high, and none of the fire officers and soldiers affected by the disaster took time off. Two soldiers of Changsha detachment also joined the commando team and went to the front. The fire brigade that the earthquake relief team will pass along the way also supports the earthquake relief work in various ways. They hope to reinforce the disaster area with their own strength and hope that the people in the disaster area will get out of trouble as soon as possible.

　　　　Olympic torchbearers go to the front line of disaster relief.

　　　　Jiang Aibing, the vanguard of the first-line earthquake relief team, is particularly familiar with it, and has also become the focus of your media reporters to capture the lens. He is the acting deputy squadron leader of the Special Service Squadron of Changsha Fire Brigade, the "leading soldier in fire fighting and rescue" of the national fire brigade, and also the torchbearer of the Hunan section of the Olympic torch relay. After getting the information that the corps will team up to go to the disaster area for reinforcements, he volunteered to ask the detachment to fight on the front line. When the media reporter asked: "If the rescue in the disaster area lasts for a long time, will you feel regret if you can’t attend the activities of the Beijing Olympic torch relay in Changsha on June 2?" He firmly replied: Being an Olympic torchbearer is the highest honor given by the country and the people, but going to the front to rescue the disaster is the sacred mission entrusted by the party and the people, and it is the unshirkable duty of fire officers and soldiers to save the people from dire straits.

　　　　Coincidentally, Wang Yonglin, the first volunteer of the national fire brigade who successfully donated hematopoietic stem cells and was also the Olympic torchbearer, also appeared in the earthquake relief team. He also rushed to the front line without hesitation. Having stood the test of thousands of fires and disaster relief scenes, he was extraordinarily calm. He said that he would race against time and death to win more time for the people in the disaster areas and rescue more victims.

　　　　At the scene where the fire-fighting and earthquake-relief commandos set out, the vows of fire officers and soldiers are particularly powerful, and they will realize their promises with actions!

　　　　Seven contract firefighters were granted special permission to go to the front line.

　　　　On the evening of May 14th, the meeting room of the Party Committee of Changsha detachment was brightly lit, and members of the Party Committee of Changsha detachment were urgently studying to send the third batch of commandos to Sichuan for earthquake relief. While Li Hao had packed his backpack and stood at the door of the conference room.

　　　　Li Hao, an ordinary contract firefighter in Changsha detachment, felt the mission and responsibility as a contract firefighter after the Wenchuan earthquake in Sichuan, facing the bloody bodies of the people in the disaster area on TV and the crying of babies in the cracks of the ruins. After learning that the detachment will transfer the third batch of reinforcements, he could no longer hold back his enthusiasm and strongly demanded to go to the front line for earthquake relief.

　　　　Li Hao said with great pride: "As a contract firefighter, we have the responsibility and obligation to do our bit for the people in the disaster area with everyone. As long as the organization needs it, it is incumbent on us to participate in earthquake relief." He went on to say: "I have three reasons to go to the front. First, I am a contract firefighter, and it is my duty to go to the front to fight earthquake and provide disaster relief. Second, when I came to be a fireman, I was ready to bleed or even die. Third, I have good physical fitness and strong fire fighting business. I am the first in the Changsha contract firefighter training business competition! "

　　　　Li Hao’s behavior brought us surprise, but also deeply moved. In the past few days, more than 300 contract firefighters have volunteered to rush to Sichuan for earthquake relief. With the special approval of the Party Committee of the Corps, seven contract firefighters, including Li Hao, Liu Chunhui, Wang Jia, Yu Ningxia, Tu Hongjun, Huang Chao and Yi Haiwen, formed a rescue class and participated in the earthquake relief of the Third Commando. With the common wish of more than 300 contract firefighters of Changsha detachment, they embarked on a journey to Sichuan earthquake-stricken area with confidence at 8: 30 am on May 15th.

　　　　Three demobilized cadres of Hengyang detachment invited to the front line of earthquake disaster

　　　　On May 15th, three comrades including Qin Zhifeng, Zhou Fawu and Xie Guobin came to Hengyang detachment early. Due to the need of work, the organization has arranged for these three comrades to work in other places this year. This is the first time that they have returned to their "parents’ homes" after arranging to change jobs. In the detachment office, they couldn’t wait to put forward the "requirements": first, they hoped to donate money to the people in the Sichuan disaster area through the organization, and second, they requested to go to the front line of earthquake relief as a firefighter.

　　　　They always pay attention to the situation in the disaster area, care about the people in the disaster area, and pay more attention to the participation of fire forces in earthquake relief. When they learned that the corps had set up a fire-fighting earthquake emergency rescue commando to go to the front line of earthquake relief, they eagerly hoped to go to the front line of disaster relief with their comrades. They said emotionally that although the organization has arranged for them to work in other places, they are always firefighters, trained and educated by the party and the army for many years. When the party and the country need it, when the people are in danger, they have the responsibility and obligation to stand up and make their own contribution.

　　　　In the face of the severe earthquake disaster, both cadres and soldiers, and even comrades who have arranged to change jobs, have expressed their strong desire to support disaster relief and go to the front line in different ways. With infinite loyalty to the party and the people, the fire officers and soldiers in the province have made full preparations and always listen to the call of the organization. When the people in the disaster areas need it, they will go forward bravely and resolutely.

　　　　As of May 16th, three commandos of the Hunan Provincial Fire and Earthquake Emergency Rescue Team have successively carried out rescue work in Dujiangyan City, Mianyang City, Sichuan Province and other severely affected areas. Together with the brothers, they have rescued eight buried people, dug up more than 20 bodies of the victims, evacuated more than 150 people and rescued a large number of living materials. At present, all three commandos have rushed to Mianyang City to participate in the rescue. A total of 216 people from the first commandos and the third commandos joined forces in Nanba Town, Pingwu County, and are cleaning up the collapsed ruins and searching for survivors.

　　Xinhua News Agency, Paris, August 2nd　Question: How does the "Olympic effect" boost the French economy?

　　Xinhua News Agency reporter Li Wenxin Liu Fang

　　The Paris Olympic Games is in full swing, and the influence of the "Olympic effect" on the French economy has attracted people’s attention. French economic research institutions believe that the Paris Olympic Games will help boost the French economy in the short term and bring long-term benefits to French tourism.

　　This is the Eiffel Tower, which was shot on July 26th. On the same day, the opening ceremony of the 33rd Summer Olympic Games was held in Paris. Xinhua News Agency reporter Xu Changshe

　　According to a recent report released by the French National Institute of Statistics and Economics, the Paris Olympic Games will contribute 0.3 percentage points to France’s GDP growth in the third quarter. Among them, the income from Olympic tickets and broadcasting rights contributed 0.25 percentage points, and the increase in the number of tourists led to the contribution of transportation, hotels and restaurants by 0.05 percentage points.

　　Dorian Ruxie, director of the Institute’s Economic Situation Department, said that the above situation is similar to the boost to the British economy from the 2012 London Olympic Games. In the third quarter of 2012, Britain’s GDP increased by 1 percentage point month-on-month, of which the contribution of London Olympic Games was about 0.2 to 0.4 percentage point.

　　According to the French Center for Sports Law and Economics (CDES), from 2018, when the Paris Olympic Games began to be prepared, to 2034, 10 years after the end of the event, the economic benefits brought by the "Olympic effect" to the French island region where Paris is located are estimated to be between 6.7 billion and 11.1 billion euros.

　　The center believes that more than 80% of the "Olympic effect" will be released during the preparation and hosting of the Olympic Games, and the rest of the driving effect will gradually emerge in the 10 years after the Olympic Games. The tourism industry in the French island region will gain economic benefits of 201 million to 1.236 billion euros.

　　Didier Arino, director of "Promoting Tourism", a French tourism consulting company, believes that the positive impact of the Paris Olympic Games on French tourism will continue to appear in the next few years, "because the Olympic Games have given France an extraordinary image".

　　According to the Paris Tourism Bureau, during the Olympic Games this year, Paris is expected to welcome 15.3 million tourists, while under normal circumstances, Paris receives about 12 million tourists from July to August. According to the statistics of Paris Tourism Bureau, from July 24th to 27th, Paris has received 650,000 tourists, a year-on-year increase of 16%. On the day before the opening ceremony, the number of visitors to Paris increased by 34.6% year-on-year.

　　Corinna Menago, director of the Paris Tourism Bureau, said that Paris has always been "quiet" in August, but the tourism situation in Paris will be "very good" in August this year. The Paris Tourism Bureau predicts that the occupancy rate of hotels in Paris will be close to 90% in the first weekend of August.

　　According to the statistics of the French Tourism Development Agency, the occupancy rate of hotels in Paris will exceed 80% during the whole Olympic Games, and the number of days for booking short-term rental houses with furniture will increase by 60%.

　　In the center near Paris by car — The "Olympic effect" is also very obvious in the Loire Valley region, Champagne region and Normandy region. According to the French Tourism Development Agency, this is partly driven by foreign tourists who come to watch the Olympic Games.

　　As the Olympic Games are distributed in many cities in France, there are more than 1,000 Olympic preparation centers in France, which are used as training and rest bases for Olympic delegations. Almost all French cities that host Olympic events and provide training venues will benefit from the "Olympic effect".

　　In Marseille, a tourist city in southern France where football and sailing events are held, local institutions predict that the city will receive 825,000 visitors during the Olympic Games and gain economic benefits of about 179 million euros.

　　In terms of employment, according to French media reports, the Paris Olympic Games will create nearly 90,000 jobs for the French island region, which are distributed in hotels, restaurants, logistics, tourism and other fields. The International Olympic Committee predicts that the Paris Olympic Games will create a total of 181,000 related jobs and enable 30,000 people to acquire vocational skills through training.

"Love without regret" special analysis of professional advantages to truly present the car to every detail

The racing scene of the movie "Pegasus 2" is exciting and shocking. Many viewers commented: "Watching racing on the big screen is exciting. Han Han must be the director who knows racing best!" The newly released special "Love Without Regret" focuses on Han Han, a screenwriter and director who has made many achievements as a racing driver. He used his passion for racing and his professional advantages in Pegasus 2, and he knew exactly what he wanted. Shen Teng believes that few people can have such professionalism as Han Han in the dual fields of racing and directing. Adam, on the other hand, revealed that Han Han has high requirements for racing movements, such as eye angle and movement range. As Marin, the director of Group B, said, "Because he is a racing driver, he not only looks at every shot from the perspective of a director, but also looks at every shot from the perspective of a racing driver." Han Han pursues the truth about the overall shape, interior, center console and other details of the racing car, and has made great efforts in every place. He is called "crazy about racing details" by Xue-hao Zhao, production designer. Norman Luo, the action director, also pointed out that Han Han also has high standards and strict requirements for racing pictures, "making every shot achieve the best effect".

In the movie, Zhang Chi’s love for racing also "echoed" with Han Han. When talking about the continuation of the speeding story, Han Han confessed his preference for Zhang Chi, hoping to continue the fate of this character and present a story that he was covered in scars and suffered injustice but did not change his love. When creating the scene in which Zhang Chi met himself five years ago, Han Han also thought about what Zhang Chi would say to himself. Finally, he felt that he didn’t need to say anything, and it was enough for him to give his present self an affirmation to carry on. I believe the audience can feel the firm love of Han Han and Zhang Chi besides being shocked by the high-energy and high-burning racing scene.

The footage of the feature film "Rushing in the Blizzard" is thrilling. Zhang Chi is not afraid of the snow sprint to detonate the cool mood

The Bayinbuluke Rally shown in the movie "Pegasus 2" not only has a cool shock from the audio-visual level, but also has a strong appeal from the inner level of the characters. The feature clip of "Running the Line in the Blizzard" is one of the highlights that make countless audiences excited, and the line "I have tried countless times, but the opportunity will only appear once or twice" that resonates strongly also comes from it. Zhang Chi came back from five years’ dormancy and drove, but he had to face the extreme weather at Bayinbuluke Rally. The storm and hail brought a series of problems, such as sudden drop in temperature, slippery road surface and blocked sight, which made the danger soar. However, rally was originally designed to challenge all kinds of natural conditions, and all racing cars and drivers were born for it. Zhang Chi didn’t want to miss this hard-won and last Bayinbuluke Rally. Although his car was not ready and his physical fitness was not as good as before, he still chose to face the difficulties. With superb technology, rich experience and persistent belief, he flew all the way without fear of snow and ice, and finally completed the difficult "Scandinavian pendulum" with the help of the navigator Sun Yuqiang and rushed out of the snowy road. This scene set off an extremely cool mood, which made countless audiences admire it. They all said, "It exploded, and tears filled their eyes." "Zhang Chi sprinted in the snowstorm, and my palms were all sweaty." "I walked through the snowstorm and got rid of all obstacles.Live up to love and surpass yourself, really burning and moving. "

The audience of Chengdu roadshow called the film "Laughing and Burning" Han Han Adam Sean shared the moment of touching tears.

On the fourth day of Lunar New Year’s Eve, screenwriter and director Han Han, actors Adam and Sean appeared in the chengdu railway station activity of the national roadshow "Fill up the tank and fly all the way". The audience at the scene expressed their feelings of watching movies, saying that "the movie is particularly beautiful, laughing, refreshing, burning and exploding", "very passionate and very bloody" and "I hope I can bravely overcome the difficulties in life like Zhang Chi. There are also viewers who bluntly cried several times. After finding the lead seal, Zhang Chi said that he only wanted innocence, and when he looked at himself five years ago, he said, "I can hold on, Zhang Chi" and other plots were burning, moving and inspiring.

When asked about the moment when he was moved to tears in the movie, Han Han revealed that it was the scene where Zhang Chi overturned in the driving school late at night, and shared the behind-the-scenes story. At that time, he filmed for several nights. Shen Teng had just finished surgery and needed to hang Weiya upside down. Moreover, it was an emotional outburst scene in Zhang Chi, which was difficult to shoot. While shooting, he was worried about Shen Teng’s physical condition, and he could not even tell whether Shen Teng was in pain or performing Zhang Chi’s pain. Adam was deeply impressed by the scene in which Li Xiaohai saved Zhang Chi: "Brother Teng finally laughed, which may make everyone laugh, but I feel more bitter about Zhang Chi. It’s not easy to see him these years. "Sean frankly was deeply moved by many lines of Zhang Chi’s race, especially the dialogue" We all know that this car is not ready "and" But I am ready ".He was not at the scene when shooting this scene, and heard Zhang Chi say this sentence on the big screen." I was really moved to tears at that moment ". In addition, many spectators came prepared.

　　The notice proposes to raise awareness and make overall plans to do a good job in open recruitment of teachers. Affected by the epidemic, the employment situation of college graduates is grim this year. The CPC Central Committee and the State Council have issued a series of important measures to stabilize employment and promote the employment of college graduates. All localities should, in accordance with the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, unify their thinking, attach great importance to it, fully understand the importance of the current employment of college graduates and the construction of teachers, make overall plans to promote the prevention and control of epidemic situation and the reform and development of education, stabilize the stock and expand the increment, take various measures to promote the employment of college graduates, comprehensively strengthen the construction of teachers, especially grassroots teachers, do a good job in the open recruitment of teachers in primary and secondary schools and kindergartens in 2020, and encourage and guide more college graduates to supplement them to meet the needs of education development.

　　The circular calls for tapping the potential for innovation and strengthening the security of teaching and administrative staff in primary and secondary schools. All localities should conscientiously implement the relevant policy requirements of the state to further tap the potential and innovate to strengthen the management of primary and secondary school staff, increase the efforts to tap the potential, innovate and coordinate the adjustment of career preparation, make good use of existing resources, especially all kinds of career preparation in the education system, and implement the unified standards for the preparation of primary and secondary school staff in urban and rural areas. Fully consider a variety of addendum factors, scientifically and reasonably verify the staffing of primary and secondary school teachers, and provide more primary and secondary school teachers for college graduates.

　　The notice pointed out that key breakthroughs should be made and kindergarten teachers should be supplemented. All localities should focus on strengthening the open recruitment of kindergarten teachers, implement the "Standards for Kindergarten Staff (Provisional)", innovate personnel management methods, ensure the wages and benefits of kindergarten teachers, and participate in social insurance according to laws and regulations. Support all localities to strengthen the allocation of kindergarten staffing. Conditional provinces approve a certain number of kindergarten faculty staffing every year, and recruit college graduates majoring in preschool education to work in kindergartens. When allocating relevant funds, the central government will make overall consideration of the number of full-time teachers in kindergartens around the country to support the reform and development of preschool education.

　　The notice mentioned that in order to optimize the supply, teachers should be openly recruited to implement "first on duty, then research". In the open recruitment of kindergarten teachers in primary and secondary schools (including the "special post plan"), all localities should set recruitment conditions scientifically and reasonably according to the post requirements, and must not set directional or discriminatory conditions unrelated to the post. According to the requirements of seven departments, such as the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, to implement the phased measures of "taking posts first and then researching" for some professional qualifications in response to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, recruiting college graduates before December 31, 2020 shall not take obtaining teacher qualification certificates as a restrictive condition.

　　The circular pointed out that we should actively support and guide college graduates to teach in schools in hard and remote areas. In accordance with the relevant provisions of the open recruitment of county and township institutions in hard and remote areas, and on the basis of adhering to the basic system of open recruitment, kindergartens in counties and townships in hard and remote areas can appropriately relax the recruitment conditions such as age, education and major, and broaden the recruitment channels; You can take out a certain number of jobs to recruit household registration personnel (or students) in this county, this city or surrounding counties and cities. Among them, township primary and secondary schools and kindergartens recruit college graduates with bachelor degree or above, and county primary and secondary schools and kindergartens recruit college graduates with master degree or above, which can be openly recruited by means of interview and direct inspection in light of actual conditions; According to the registration of candidates, professional distribution and other conditions, the proportion of opening examinations can be appropriately reduced, or the proportion of opening examinations can not be set, and the qualified score line can be delineated.

　　The notice requires that the wall chart be promoted to ensure the completion of the "special post plan" recruitment plan. Local education administrative departments should, in accordance with the work arrangements, formulate work promotion charts, strengthen coordination with human resources and social security, preparation, finance and other departments, earnestly do a good job in the implementation of this year’s "special post plan" recruitment organization, carefully allocate plans, widely publicize policies, and attract college graduates to apply. The provinces that have not completed the plan for one-time recruitment can make up the employment or organize the second recruitment in turn according to the regulations to ensure the recruitment completion rate. The provinces that implement the local "special post plan" should co-ordinate the use of the "special post plan" at the central and local levels and give priority to the completion of the central "special post plan". In 2020, the recruitment of teachers in the "special post plan" of the central government will give appropriate support to the recruitment plan of Hubei Province and the graduates from Hubei and Hubei universities.

　　The notice also mentioned that coordination and cooperation should be carried out to implement the responsibility of teacher recruitment. The departments of human resources, social security, education, establishment and finance at all levels should strengthen coordination and cooperation, perform their duties, increase the open recruitment of teachers according to the situation of the construction of students and teachers in kindergartens of all kinds of primary and secondary schools, refine the measures and clarify the tasks, and expand the recruitment of a certain number of college graduates on the basis of the number of college graduates recruited last year to attract more college graduates to teach.

We will implement the phased social insurance premium reduction policy for private primary and secondary schools and kindergartens in accordance with regulations.

Recently, Zhu Lingthallium poisoning incidents have been heated up on the Internet. What kind of element is "thallium" and what kind of historical story is there? Fang Zhouzi published an article "The Legend of a Fatal Element" on Hexun.com’s personal blog on May 17th, telling us the criminal history of the deadly poison thallium.

Discovering new chemical elements was once the highest glory that chemists dreamed of. The British were far ahead in the list of new elements. During 1807 ~ 1808, David discovered or first isolated seven elements. But after more than 40 years, this glory was no longer missed by the British. More than a dozen newly discovered elements were discovered by Sweden, Germany, France, Denmark and Russia. The content of new elements in nature is becoming scarcer and scarcer, and it is becoming more and more difficult to find them.

In 1860, German Bunsen and Kirchhoff invented a new method to analyze the composition of matter — — Spectral analysis. The principle of this method is that a substance is heated at high temperature, dissociated into a gaseous state, and emitted light, which is decomposed into a spectrum composed of colored lines through a spectroscope. Different elements form different spectra. If new lines are found in the spectra, it means that new elements are found. In this way, Bunsen and Kirchhoff discovered cesium and rubidium successively.

At that time, crookes, an Englishman, turned to science journalism and edited Chemical News after finding nothing new elements. After learning about the discovery of Bunsen and Kirchhoff, crookes was re-inspired to find new elements. In March 1861, when crookes made a spectral analysis of the waste residue from a sulfuric acid plant, he found that a bright green line that had never been seen before flashed and disappeared. He is keenly aware that this may be a new element. Subsequent analysis confirmed this. He named this new element Thallium according to the color of the lines, which means "twig" in Greek and translated into thallium in Chinese. Crookes immediately published his findings, and then tried to separate this new element. However, he had too few raw materials, and only a little thallium was isolated for research in January 1862. He thought thallium was a heavy metal.

克鲁克斯不知道的是，在海峡彼岸，法国人拉米也在做同样的研究，也独立看到了那条亮绿色线条。但是拉米在5月份当地的一次学术会议上公布其发现时，克鲁克斯早已抢先公布了，所以拉米就沿用克鲁克斯的命名，称之为铊。与克鲁克斯不同的是，拉米手上有大量的原料可供分离。2星期后，他用电解法分离获得铊金属锭。

1862年5月1日，克鲁克斯应邀在伦敦世界博览会上展出他的发现，展品中除了一些铊盐，还有一粒粉末，标注“铊，一种新的金属元素”。当年6月，拉米带着铊锭从法国赶来参展。克鲁克斯和拉米碰头后，才知道拉米也独立发现了铊，而且比他更进一步获得了纯化的铊锭。而拉米则认为克鲁克斯展出的那一粒粉末根本就不是金属铊，而是铊的硫化物。两人自此起了争执。博览会组织者的一次失误让这次争执火上浇油。在获奖名单中，拉米作为铊的发现者获得奖牌，却没有克鲁克斯的名字。在克鲁克斯写信抗议后，组织者承认是编辑错误，在获奖者名单第二版中，把克鲁克斯也作为铊的发现者补进去。

Crookes thinks he is the discoverer of thallium, because he first saw the green lines of thallium, determined the elemental properties of thallium, and isolated thallium. Lamy admitted that he saw the green lines of thallium and determined the elemental properties of thallium independently later than crookes, but he first determined that thallium was a metal and really separated thallium for the first time. Lamy’s view is that only by separating the new element can it be truly discovered. Lamy also accused crookes of plagiarizing his viewpoint. Before that, crookes thought thallium was a metalloid, and only after meeting Lamy at the Expo did he know that thallium was a metal. Crookes denied plagiarizing Lamy’s views, because he didn’t know much French and Lamy didn’t know much English. How could he plagiarize when they met?

Crookes made use of his scientific media to publish a series of contributions to support himself. Other British journals have also published articles in support of crookes. British scientists are happy to support him for British honor. After all, this is the first time since David that the British have discovered new elements and compared him with David. Lamy can naturally make his own voice in the French media. Both sides are fighting for their own priority and the honor of the motherland, and they are quarrelling endlessly. Comparatively speaking, the British scientific community needs this priority more and supports crookes more. In June, 1863, nominated by Faraday and others, crookes was elected as a member of the Royal Society of England at an extremely fast speed, and his achievement was simply listed as "the discoverer of thallium". At this point, crookes became famous and no longer argued with Lamy.

Lamy experimented with thallium and found that thallium was very toxic. He once dissolved 5 grams of thallium sulfate in milk and found that it was enough to kill 2 hens, 6 ducks, 2 puppies and a bitch. Crookes doesn’t believe thallium is poisonous. He said that he had done experiments with thallium vapor for a long time and didn’t get sick because of it; He swallowed one or two thallium salts and found nothing wrong.

There is nothing to argue about on this issue. Thallium is toxic and highly toxic. Thallium sulfate is colorless, odorless and highly toxic, so it is very suitable to be used as rodenticide. Mice will not only die if they eat bait mixed with thallium sulfate, but also die if they eat the bodies of poisoned mice. Thallium sulfate has been widely used as a rodenticide in the world since the 1920s. But this rat poison can also kill people. In the early 1950s, thallium sulfate rat poison was even popular in Australia, and many cases occurred. In Sydney alone, hospitals treated 103 cases of thallium poisoning.

Poisoners like to use thallium for poisoning, because thallium is colorless and odorless, requires a small amount (about one gram can kill them), is not easy to be detected, and the symptoms (gastrointestinal reaction, hair loss, peripheral nerve disease, etc.) after poisoning are easily confused with other diseases, and it is difficult to diagnose. Thallium poisoning has therefore become a common theme in detective novels and movies. One of the most famous is pale horse published by agatha christie, a former pharmacist, in 1961. Because of its accurate description of thallium poisoning methods and symptoms, it was criticized as a poisoning textbook. There are indeed some thallium poisoning cases in which the criminals were inspired by reading pale horse. For example, in the thallium poisoning case in Florida in 1988, the police searched the suspect’s room and found a copy of pale horse. In three cases of thallium poisoning in Japan, whether you have read the pale horse or not was investigated as important evidence, especially in the case of the medical department of Tokyo University in 1991, and the witness’s testimony that the suspect had read the book was even regarded as important evidence.

Pale horse also played a positive role. In 1971, about 70 people developed strange diseases in a factory in Bowen, England, and 3 people died. A doctor who read "pale horse" realized that it might be thallium poisoning and contacted the police. It turned out that an employee who poisoned his family at the age of 14 threw thallium into tea for everyone to drink. In 1977, a 19-month-old baby was sent from Qatar to London for rescue because of a strange disease. A nurse who read "pale horse" suspected thallium poisoning. After testing thallium poisoning, she confirmed her suspicion. However, she was not poisoned, but ate rat poison containing thallium sulfate by mistake.

Thallium has its application value in medical treatment, chemical engineering, material engineering and other fields, but its reputation as a poison is so great that people think that it exists as a poison. In fact, due to the progress of diagnosis and medical technology, thallium is no longer a good poison. It usually takes two weeks or more from onset to death after thallium poisoning. If it can be diagnosed and detoxified in time, there will be almost no sequelae. What is needed is that doctors should have enough knowledge and vigilance against thallium poisoning.
