On Taiwan’s election and criticism of "Taiwan independence", the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council responded to hot spots on both sides of the strait.

  BEIJING, April 24 (Xinhua) On the morning of the 24th, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a regular press conference. Spokesperson Ma Guang Xiao answered reporters’ questions on the recent 2020 election in Taiwan Province, Tsai Ing-Wen’s "Taiwan independence" remarks, cross-strait exchanges, and the draft amendment to the Regulations on People’s Relations across the Taiwan Strait. Ma Xiaoguang said that the mainland has never intervened in the elections in Taiwan Province, and the Democratic Progressive Party authorities have constantly obstructed and restricted the exchanges and contacts between compatriots on both sides of the strait, suppressed the voice calling for cross-strait reunification, raised cross-strait opposition, and exposed its true features of seeking one-party interests and seeking "Taiwan independence".

  [Talking about the 2020 election: the statement of "mainland intervention" is sheer nonsense]

  Tsai Ing-Wen said a few days ago that in the "general election" in 2020, Kuomintang candidates appeared in South Korea’s Yu and Guo Taiming successively. She did not believe that the mainland did not intervene. Ma Xiaoguang said that we have emphasized many times that we have never been involved in elections in Taiwan Province. Democratic Progressive Party authorities are used to spreading slanderous words and spreading rumors to discredit the mainland. The question of Taiwan Province is an internal affair of China, and no external interference is allowed. The so-called "mainland intervention" is sheer nonsense with ulterior motives.

  [Criticism of Tsai Ing-Wen’s "Taiwan independence" remarks: undermining the peaceful development of the two sides of the strait]

  In an interview a few days ago, Tsai Ing-Wen declared that he did not accept the "1992 Consensus" and insisted on the so-called "sovereign independence", saying that "maintaining the status quo" means maintaining the so-called "independence" status quo. Ma Xiaoguang pointed out that the remarks made by the leader of the Democratic Progressive Party authorities were unsolicited, exposing a political plot to overthrow the common political foundation of the "1992 Consensus" and undermine the peaceful development of cross-strait relations, and fully demonstrating that the Democratic Progressive Party authorities are the makers of cross-strait conflicts, the saboteurs of peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait and the injurers of the interests of the people in Taiwan Province.

  In addition, Li Yi, a mainland American scholar who was invited to visit Taiwan, was expelled from the country by the Taiwan authorities a few days ago. Tsai Ing-Wen said, "If people from mainland China come to Taiwan to promote ‘ One country, two systems ’ 、‘ Unification by force ’ Wait, control measures should be taken to refuse entry when necessary. " Ma Xiaoguang said that for some time, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities have constantly obstructed and restricted the exchanges and contacts between compatriots on both sides of the strait, suppressed the voice calling for reunification on both sides of the strait, raised cross-strait opposition, and exposed their true colors of seeking one-party interests and "Taiwan independence".

  [Comment on South Korea’s remarks on Yu’s visit to the United States: Cross-strait affairs should be discussed by family members]

  South Korea Yu said during his visit to the United States a few days ago, "Taiwan Province ‘ National defense ’ Relying on the United States, technology depends on Japan, and the market depends on the mainland. " In this regard, Ma Guang Xiao emphasized that compatriots on both sides of the strait are a family, and cross-strait affairs are the family affairs of compatriots on both sides of the strait, which should be handled by family members through consultation. I hope all Chinese people, including Taiwan Province compatriots, will conform to the historical trend, share the national justice, firmly hold the national destiny in their own hands, and create a bright future for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

  [On the Draft Amendment to the Regulations on Cross-Strait People’s Relations: Ruining the Future of Taiwan Province]

  The "Draft Amendment to the Regulations on People’s Relations between the Two Sides of the Taiwan Strait" recently passed by Taiwan’s administrative authorities, in which it is proposed to add that "the signing of political agreements through cross-strait negotiations should be subject to double deliberation and referendum by the legislature" and stipulate that "it shall not be an item of agreement". Ma Xiaoguang pointed out that the Democratic Progressive Party authorities violated the common aspiration of compatriots on both sides of the strait for peace and development for the sake of one party and one self-interest. The peaceful development of cross-strait relations is the common aspiration and common interest of compatriots on both sides of the strait. Everything that is beneficial to the interests of compatriots on both sides of the strait and the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation should be vigorously promoted.

  On April 17th, Chief Executive Chui Sai On (right) of the Macao Special Administrative Region met with James Soong, Chairman of the People First Party, at the government headquarters. The two sides exchanged views on deepening exchanges and cooperation between the two places and promoting Taiwan Province compatriots to participate in the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area in the future.

  [The Taiwan authorities distorted James Soong’s delegation’s visit to Hong Kong and Macao: obstructing exchanges and cooperation]

  A few days ago, James Soong, Chairman of the People First Party, led a delegation to visit Hong Kong and Macao to enter the Liaison Office of the two places and met with the directors of the Liaison Office of the two places respectively. The Mainland Affairs Council claimed that the mainland arranged this trip with the intention of "united front" and eliminating the so-called "sovereignty of Taiwan Province". Ma Xiaoguang pointed out that James Soong led a delegation to visit Hong Kong and Macao, and the heads of the Liaison Offices in Hong Kong and Macao met with him respectively, which was a normal exchange. Democratic Progressive Party authorities distorted and slandered, fully exposing their attempts to obstruct cross-strait exchanges and cooperation with Hong Kong and Macao and harm the interests and well-being of compatriots.

  [Taiwan people’s residence permit in the mainland has not been declared or the practice of being punished by the Taiwan authorities is unpopular]

  A few days ago, the Taiwan Province Affairs Council worked out to issue an administrative order in the second half of the year, stipulating that people who receive mainland residence permits must declare voluntarily, or they will be punished. Ma Xiaoguang said that the mainland issued residence permits to Taiwan Province compatriots in order to meet the needs of Taiwan Province compatriots, which was a good thing to benefit Taiwan and the people, and was also welcomed by the vast number of Taiwan Province compatriots. For the sake of one-party interests, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities are everywhere against the interests of our compatriots in Taiwan Province and sabotage the good deeds of our compatriots in Taiwan Province. This is unpopular and will not succeed.

  [The mayor of Taixian County came to the mainland to communicate and meet the needs of the people]

  Recently, many county mayors in Taiwan Province visited the mainland for exchanges. Ma Xiaoguang pointed out that the mayor of Taiwan county came to the mainland to meet the needs of the people. We are willing to continue exchanges and cooperation with Taiwanese counties and cities in various fields on the basis of adhering to the "1992 Consensus" to enhance the well-being of Taiwan Province compatriots.

  [Encourage Taiwanese enterprises to invest in the mainland without discrimination]

  Want Want Group, a Taiwan-funded enterprise, has issued a statement to refute the report that it has received high government subsidies in the mainland and tried to "smear and discredit" the enterprise. Ma Xiaoguang said, over the years, we have encouraged and supported Taiwan-funded enterprises to invest and start businesses in the mainland, and taken active measures to provide them with various conveniences and equal treatment, so as to share the opportunities for development in the mainland and help them achieve greater and better development in the mainland. Our policy is inclusive, in accordance with laws and regulations, and all Taiwan Province enterprises are treated equally.

  [Introduction to two activities: the Straits Forum is well prepared, and the Taiwan Province Garden of the World Expo has its own characteristics]

  When introducing the situation of the 2019 Straits Forum, Ma Xiaoguang said that the 11th Straits Forum will be held in Fujian Province on June 15th, and will continue to focus on and serve grassroots people and youth groups. At present, all preparations are progressing smoothly. Taiwan Province compatriots are welcome to actively participate in this forum, and media friends on both sides of the strait are also welcome to report.

  Regarding the 2019 China Beijing World Horticultural Exposition to be held in Yanqing District, Beijing on April 29th, Ma Xiaoguang said that at the invitation of the Beijing World Horticultural Exposition Bureau, Taiwan Province Garden covers an area of 2,000 square meters, which is divided into six landscape nodes: Xiangshan, Orchid, Time Road, Sun Moon Lake, farmland and mountain top. The garden is very attractive with Taiwan Province characteristics.

Look quickly, the day after tomorrow, these nine provinces and cities will levy water resources tax. Will your water fee go up?

  CCTV News:One and a half years after the pilot water resource tax reform in Hebei Province, from December 1, nine provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) including Beijing, Tianjin, Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Henan, Shandong, Sichuan, Ningxia and Shaanxi will also be included in the pilot water resource tax reform, and tax levers will be used to curb unreasonable water use behavior. After the reform, what will happen to the water charges in these places?

  Nine provinces and cities, including Beijing, were included in the pilot project.

  On November 28th, the Ministry of Finance, the State Administration of Taxation and the Ministry of Water Resources jointly issued a notice on the implementation measures for expanding the pilot reform of water resources tax. According to the deployment, on the basis of the pilot water resource tax reform in Hebei last year, starting from December 1, 2017, the pilot water resource tax collection and management will be carried out in 9 provinces including Beijing, Tianjin, Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Shandong, Henan, Sichuan, Shaanxi and Ningxia; At the same time, the fee for raw water resources was stopped.

  Water resource tax is not a new tax in China, but a tax item under the resource tax with a history of more than 30 years. The plan makes it clear that all units and individuals who directly use surface water and groundwater should pay water resource tax, except for emergency water intake such as agricultural drought relief and small amount of water intake for family life.

  Overall principle: tax and fee translation

  Do not increase the burden on residents and general industrial and commercial enterprises.

  The change from "water resource fee" to "water resource tax", although it is a word difference, can contain many changes. The collection department has changed from the water conservancy department to the tax department, and it has become more mandatory after becoming a "tax". Will the water fee change?

  During the pilot period, the specific applicable tax amount shall be levied according to the standard of raw water resource fee, and in accordance with the principle of shifting taxes and fees, so as not to increase the normal production and living water burden of general industrial and commercial enterprises and urban and rural residents.

  At present, the water fee paid by ordinary people is "comprehensive water price", which consists of three parts: basic water price, water resource fee and sewage treatment fee. Some of the water resources fees in the nine areas expanded by this tax reform are collected outside the basic water price (such as Beijing) and some are included in the basic water price. After the fee is changed to tax, the water company pays the tax, and residents do not have to declare and pay the tax. Compared with the collection standard of raw water resource fee, the tax standard of residents and general industrial and commercial enterprises has not changed, that is to say, no matter what form is reflected in the water bill, it will not affect the comprehensive water price.

  Optimize water use structure

  Three improvements and six reductions and exemptions

  This water resource tax reform is to play the role of tax adjustment, by setting differential tax, strengthening collection and management according to law, restraining groundwater overexploitation and unreasonable water demand, and adjusting and optimizing water use structure.

  Among them, there are three improvements:

  Determine the tax from a high level for the use of groundwater and strictly control the over-exploitation of groundwater.

  For special industries to take water, the tax amount shall be determined from a high level.

  For over-planned (quota) water intake, the tax amount shall be determined from the high level.

  Judging from the pilot situation, Li Jiegang, deputy director of the Finance Department of Hebei Province, introduced that in 2016, more than 100 urban public water supply enterprises in Hebei Province changed from pumping groundwater to using surface water, and the groundwater intake in the province decreased by 6.6% compared with the previous year.

  In addition, the water burden of enterprises in special industries such as golf, bathing and car washing, which are located in over-exploited areas and use more groundwater, has indeed increased, but through this forced way, enterprises have adopted water-saving measures one after another, and the water-saving effect is remarkable. Some enterprises in Hebei said that although the unit water price has increased, the water consumption has been reduced by saving water, and the overall burden has decreased instead of increasing.

  In order to support agricultural production, the water used for agricultural production within the prescribed limits is exempt from tax;

  In order to encourage the recycling of water resources, it is tax-free to take reclaimed water from sewage treatment;

  In order to support national defense construction, the military and armed police forces are exempted from taking water by means other than accessing the urban public water supply network;

  Considering that pumped storage power generation does not consume and pollute water resources, it is tax-free to take water for pumped storage power generation;

  Considering that the special production process does not consume water resources, it is tax-free to re-inject the oil production drainage after separation and purification in the closed pipeline;

  Other circumstances under which the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation stipulate tax exemption or reduction.

  Reform will be pushed to the whole country.

  There is a big gap in tax standards in different places.

  Specifically, the nine pilot areas will formulate detailed rules according to the general implementation measures and local conditions. Due to the diversity of water resources endowments in different places, the difference between the tax standards of water resources tax in different places in the same industry is as high as 20 times. For example, Beijing and Tianjin are economically developed and seriously short of water, and the current water resources fee collection standard is relatively high. After the taxes and fees are translated, the minimum average tax payment is also relatively high.

  According to different places and different industries, different tax rates are adopted, so as to achieve the purpose of resource conservation and promote the full and effective utilization of water resources through the leverage of resource tax.

  According to the Ministry of Finance, the next step will be to summarize and evaluate the implementation of the pilot project in a timely manner, fully consider the differences between regions, further improve the water resource tax system, and take the opportunity to comprehensively push forward the water resource tax reform across the country when conditions are ripe.

Discovery of military history: the whole story of Chinese expeditionary force going to Burma to fight [Figure]


  In December 1941, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and the Pacific War broke out. Since then, the Japanese divided forces to attack all parts of Southeast Asia, and the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway and Hong Kong Passage, two major transportation lines connecting China and the outside world, were cut off one after another. Western aid materials to China could only be delivered to Yangon, Myanmar, and then to Kunming via the Yunnan-Myanmar Highway. "If the Japanese invaders invade Myanmar, the soldiers and civilians behind us will be trapped in the isolated city and sit still."


  In December 1941, the vanguard troops of the 15th Army of the Japanese invaders invaded southern Myanmar, pushing Yangon. China, Britain and the United States held a joint military meeting in Chongqing that month, and decided that China would "send troops to Myanmar in a few days to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese aggressors".


  One hundred thousand troops marched south.


  For Chinese, which is in the arduous period of Anti-Japanese War, ensuring the security of Myanmar is directly related to the safety of the rear area of the Anti-Japanese War. But for Britain, Myanmar is at best a peripheral barrier of India. Although the British who colonized Myanmar have taken care of their own affairs, they have not forgotten to plan their own "career"-what if China’s army beat the Japanese away in Myanmar and persisted? In this way, the Chinese Expeditionary Force’s operation in Myanmar was delayed by the British, and it lost its excellent fighter plane to "strike it halfway" while the Japanese army was unstable in Myanmar. American President Roosevelt was determined to convince the British, because he knew that only China persisted in the war of resistance in Asia could Britain and the United States concentrate on dealing with Nazi Germany in Europe. At the end of 1941, the Allied Forces decided to merge the war zones of Myanmar, Thailand, Viet Nam and China into the China-Myanmar-India war zone. In order to coordinate the relationship between the British and Chinese armies, Roosevelt also sent General Stilwell as the chief of staff of the theater.


  While Roosevelt was busy threading a needle between China and Britain, the Japanese were not idle. On December 23, 1941, the Japanese army began a full-scale invasion of Myanmar. In January of the following year, the British garrison collapsed and Yangon fell on March 8. However, the Japanese did not expect that at this time, the 100,000 troops of the 5 th, 6 th and 66 th armies of the Chinese Expeditionary Force were marching into Myanmar. China National Government took out 9 of all 15 mechanized divisions to fight in Myanmar, which shows that it attaches great importance to this campaign.


  In March, 1942, Dai Anlan led the 200th Division to leap thousands of miles and arrived in Tonggu, an important town in southern Myanmar.


  Tonggu is located 260 kilometers north of Yangon, which is at the crossroads of land and water. When the 200th Division arrived here, the first thing they saw was not the Japanese army, but a large number of British troops defeated from Yangon. These British troops were really frightened by the Japanese, and many of them, together with the ancient capital, fled to Mandalay in the north, leaving a large number of abandoned weapons on both sides of the road. It was here that the Chinese Expeditionary Force fought the first fierce battle with the Japanese aggressors since they entered Myanmar. From March 19th, the 200th Division, which was alone, and the 55th Division of the Japanese Army in the north were killed in utter darkness. On the 24th, more than 100 Japanese death squads touched the most cup position, and the platoon leader Ma Licheng was killed by six bullets. On the 26th, the Wudun position was lost twice, and the 3rd Battalion of the 597th Regiment repeatedly fought with the Japanese army, all of them died heroically … Although the Japanese army dispatched more than 100 sorties every day to bombard the ancient city, the Tonggu defense line was still not broken. However, 11 days later, the Japanese army tore open the defense line of the 200 th Division. The reason is not that Hironaka Takeuchi, the head of the 55th Division, has made any amazing move, but that their reinforcements, the 56th Division, suddenly appeared. On the evening of the 30th, under the cover of the new 22nd Division, the 200th Division fought its way out and successfully broke through. In the end, the Great War with Ancient China ended with the active withdrawal of China troops.


  In April, 1942, the Chinese Expeditionary Force set out for a decisive battle with the Japanese main force in the Pingmanna area of central Myanmar. The war is just around the corner, but the British on the west side of the front line have lost their chains again. On 16th, the 33rd Division of the Japanese army quickly crossed the three lines of defense of the British army and surrounded nearly 10,000 British troops in yenangyaung. On the evening of 17th, at the moment when the British commander began to pray to God, a miracle really appeared-an China army suddenly appeared, and a United wing of the Japanese aggressors was destroyed, which opened a retreat channel for the trapped British army. This unit is the new 38 th Division of the 66 th Army of the Chinese Expeditionary Force. To thank China’s army for its rescue, the Queen of England awarded the "Commander of the Empire" to General Sun Liren, the commander of the new 38th Division. Although the victory of the battle of Ren ‘an Qiang can’t be called "brilliant", it was the first victory of the Chinese expeditionary force after it entered Myanmar, which dealt a severe blow to the arrogance of the Japanese aggressors.


  Poor cooperation leads to a thousand miles of failure.


  Due to the British army’s flight on the West Road and the defeat of the Chinese Expeditionary Force on the East Road, the plan of Pingmanna Battle fell through. At that time, however, the strength of the allied forces in Myanmar was still stronger than that of the Japanese army. Based on Mandalay, an important town in central Myanmar, they planned to concentrate the 5th, 6th and 66th armies of China and five British divisions, with a total of 250,000 troops to fight the Japanese aggressors. However, the British once again abandoned his China allies. On April 20th, 1942, the British and Burmese troops on the front line in Mandalay once again began to retreat without informing the friendly forces in China. The treacherous British completely shook the last confidence of China’s army, and the expeditionary force was forced to change the battle plan of Mandalay to "defense in depth" to keep the enemy out of the country and focus on defense in Lashio.


  腊戍是滇缅公路的门户和远征军回国的通道。1942年4月28日,由日本本州造船工厂工人组成的第56师团奔袭1500公里绕到了盟军防御空虚的后方,对腊戍发起了猛攻,当天腊戍失守。此时中国远征军被三面包围,留给他们的出路只有撤退。然而,日军第56师团并没有停止进攻。4月30日,该师团分兵两路,一路扑向缅甸密支那,以切断中国远征军的退路,另一路沿滇缅公路向中国境内推进。一周后,密支那被攻占,中国远征军回国的最后一条通道被掐断了。


  此刻,摆在远征军面前的只有两个选择——要么往北杀回祖国,要么往西退入印度。以师长孙立人为首的新38师果断撤往印度,实力得到较好保存。而远征军指挥官杜聿明则坚持把部队带回祖国,其心情亦可以理解——回想当初远征军是以消灭日军为目的开赴缅甸的,而今不仅没能歼灭日寇,还被追得狼狈不堪,要是连所剩部队都没带回国内,他还有什么脸面去见江东父老?于是,杜聿明带领主力大部队向北进发。1942年5月10日,当他们来到缅北境内的野人山附近时,侦察部队传来消息:日军正张网以待。杜聿明决定扔下重武器,率部队一头扎进野人山,而这个决定竟成为生还远征军军人心中永恒的噩梦!


  After the main force of the expeditionary force fled into Savage Mountain, the 200th division, which served as a defender, was divided by the enemy. Dai Anlan was fearless in the face of crisis and decisively commanded the troops to break through. Unfortunately, he was seriously injured in the fierce battle and died heroically on May 26, 1942, at the age of 38. Like the 200th Division, other troops of the Chinese Expeditionary Force who withdrew from the north also paid a heavy price in the savage mountain. The unpredictable climate, poisonous snakes and beasts, plagues and hungry teams went hand in hand, and this black jungle swallowed tens of thousands of expeditionary officers and men. According to the figures released by the allied forces after the war, the number of Chinese expeditionary forces entering Myanmar for the first time was 100,000, with a total of more than 61,000 casualties, of which nearly 50,000 people died or disappeared during the retreat.


  远征军在野人山苦苦挣扎的同时,日军攻入滇西。从1942年5月2日开始,日寇相继攻陷畹町、遮放、腾冲等地,所幸惠通桥守军及时炸毁了这座连接天险怒江两岸的唯一通道,日军前进的铁蹄才被迫停止。不久前热播的电视剧《我的团长我的团》中龙文章带领大伙在南天门抵挡日军,讲述的应该就是这段历史。之后,中国守军和日本侵略者在怒江两岸对峙了1年多。剧中炮灰团在祭旗坡上的那段“安逸”日子,也正源自于此。


  重整旗鼓痛击日寇


  1942年5月2日,史迪威在给美国总部的一份急电中,首次提到在印度建立基地训练中国军队和反攻缅甸的计划。随后,中国国民政府将退到印度的新22师、新38师残部整编为X部队,将撤退到云南的远征军与新增派的部队整编为Y部队。


  1943年,为提高部队战斗力,中国的昆明、大理和印度的兰姆伽等地分别设立了干部训练团和训练学校,对官兵进行兵器、射击、战术等训练,并配备盟军提供的新式装备。


  1943年10月20日,在中国远征军曾经的伤心地——野人山,孙立人率领的新38师对素有“丛林作战之王”之称的日军第18师团发起攻击。上午11时,新38师搜索连在行进途中与日军的一个大队遭遇,双方几乎同时向对方开火。从前,日军一个营的战斗力相当于或超过中国军队一个师。所以,此次战斗一开始,日军根本没把中国士兵放在眼里,立即发起冲锋。他们做梦也没想到,此时的中国军队已今非昔比:搜索连配有迫击炮12门,反坦克炮3门,轻重机枪25挺,300余名士兵人手一支美制“汤姆逊”冲锋枪。战斗一打响,手持“三八大盖”的日本人便被密集的子弹打得血肉横飞。


  接下来,X部队势如破竹,连克欣贝延、达邦加、孟拱、密支那等战略要地。“孙立人”这个名字更是让日寇闻风丧胆。值得一提的是,曾有名军官请示孙立人如何处理一个被擒的日本兵,孙立人大喝:“你去审审,只要到过中国的一概枪毙,以后都照此办理。”


  与X部队相呼应,1944年5月中旬,中国远征军Y部队近20万人也渡过怒江向日军据点发起雷霆般的攻势。《我的团长我的团》结尾描写的攻击南天门战斗,应该是取自Y部队发起的松山大反攻。和剧情相比,真实的战斗更加惨烈——


  One morning in July, an expeditionary force commander rushed to the front to fight the enemy. Lao Cui, the cookhouse squad, took out the most exquisite craftsmanship and prepared to greet the brothers with a delicious meal. After the meal was ready, Lao Cui waited from noon to evening, and finally there was good news from the front. He shouted excitedly, "What are you waiting for? Go! " After that, he led the cooking soldiers to pick up the food and send it to the front line. The Songshan Mountain in the sunset is a river of blood. The cookhouse squad turned several hills and didn’t meet a brother. Suddenly, someone exclaimed, "Brothers are here!" Old Cui hurried over, but tears streamed down. I saw that the brothers were bloody one by one, and lying with them were double the dead bodies of the Japanese army. Counting carefully, all 141 officers and men of the company died … The kitchen soldiers cried into tears one by one. Lao Cui wiped a tear and cried, "We can’t let the brothers be starved to death. Even if we feed them, we have to feed them and send them on their way!"


  In the process of the Expeditionary Force’s counterattack against western Yunnan and northern Myanmar, there are many tearful stories like this. It is this indomitable spirit that enabled the Chinese Expeditionary Force to conquer several cities and kill tens of thousands of enemies, and won the counter-offensive operations in western Yunnan and northern Myanmar. It is also this kind of loyalty that casts the unyielding soul of the Chinese nation! History will not forget, and we should not forget this group of magnificent China soldiers on the battlefield in Yunnan and Burma more than 60 years ago!

Issuing 20 kinds of MLM coins in one year to attract 4 million members: revealing the "history of collecting money" of MLM group Vpay

  Invited author of Wen Shu’s mutual chain pulse, fire failure

  Unauthorized reproduction is not allowed!

  Cross-chain pulse: compared with a so-called direct selling platform, it took more than 20 years to develop millions of members in China; Under the guise of blockchain, VPAY has developed 4 million members after issuing MLM coins for more than a year, and has escaped many regulatory attacks. How does VPAY do it? Cross-chain Pulse Invitation has been tracking VPAY’s "failure" and deciphering this pyramid scheme’s money-collecting practices from its "history of money-collecting".

  Among the pyramid schemes, if VPAY (now renamed "Vtoken") says second, I’m afraid no one dares to say first.

  Since its establishment on November 23, 2017, Vpay has rapidly "expanded" under the banner of "blockchain". According to the public data of VPAY to its members, more than 20 kinds of MLM coins have been intensively issued in more than one year, which has rapidly developed 4 million members. Incomplete statistics have raised more than 4.1 billion yuan. The number of 4 million members is second to none in the pyramid schemes that have been investigated or in batches.

  Looking beyond the blockchain industry, MLM organizations that can grow to millions of people in a short time may be beyond the reach of even the sensational "Health Empire Quanjian". What is even more surprising is that after other MLM projects have "closed the net", this MLM platform, which has been operating for a year, has not collapsed, and there is a faint momentum of whitewashing itself.

  (Vtoken’s Nasdaq big screen advertisement)

  Behind-the-scenes bosses never reveal their "real bodies", and the main operators are "three caves of cunning rabbits". How did the Vpay platform develop step by step? What is the operation mode hidden behind Vpay?

  "MLM+crowdfunding", attracting 4.1 billion yuan a year.

  In November 2017, Vpay issued the first virtual currency asset-Vpay coins ("VPC") at the moment when the concept of blockchain was in vogue, with the initial 10 million pieces as seed assets, and each 1.2 yuan, VPAY called it "platform mother coin".

  Unlike other digital currency, new users can’t buy Vpay coins directly, and they must buy the balance from the recommender before they can convert it into Vpay coins. However, Vpay’s money-making mechanism is very attractive. Its static income allows users to enjoy "five times the leverage of points and six times the reinvestment" immediately after purchasing the balance, and then release two thousandths of points every day, while its dynamic income allows members to continuously develop offline, accelerate the release of points and get balance rewards.

  With this reward mechanism and pyramid scheme, Vpay members have developed by leaps and bounds. According to the information released by Vpay operating members in April 2018, by the end of March 2018, the number of its members had reached 173,000.

  (Source: Vpay published data)

  With the rapid growth of Vpay members, the "bubble" in Vpay’s treasury board is also getting bigger and bigger. In order to eliminate the internal bubble, Vpay raised 5 million pieces and 10 million pieces of Vpay coins at the price of 6 yuan/piece and 31.4 yuan/piece on March 13 and June 13, 2018 respectively.

  By June 2018, Vpay claimed that its membership had reached 892,000. Although there was a lot of water in it, this month was a watershed in the development of Vpay.

  On June 19th, 2018, Vpay launched a crowdfunding campaign for the second air coin Uselink (ringcoin) besides Vpay. The number of crowdfunding was 42 million pieces, and the crowdfunding price was 10 yuan/piece. However, this crowdfunding campaign was not perfect and only 72.28% of the original plan was completed.

  (Source: Vpay published data)

  Then, on August 19 and August 28, 2018, Vpay successively completed the crowdfunding of smart home chain (SMTH coin) and game chain (GCC coin).

  Since then, Vpay has started the crazy mode of pyramid selling coin crowdfunding. According to the author’s statistics, in the second half of 2018, the number of air coins raised by Vpay reached as many as 12 times, and the types of pyramid schemes reached 11 kinds, basically there were two pyramid schemes crowdfunding every month on average.

  Among them, the large amount of crowdfunding includes ABS chain, VTS coin love chain (CLC coin) and SFIS (super interstellar file system) in the name of "Ma Yun". According to the actual progress and crowdfunding price, the final crowdfunding amount is 200 million yuan, 250 million yuan, 150 million yuan and 198 million yuan respectively.

  Of course, there are also projects with less successful crowdfunding, such as IPC coin (IPchain) and the fourth Vpay coin crowdfunding, which only completed 59.62% and 49.25% of the planned progress.

  However, this does not affect the crazy development of Vpay and its off-line and wanton accumulation of wealth.

  In January 2019, the Vpay operator announced that its membership reached 4 million, which means that its membership has increased 22 times in 11 months.

  In addition to the surge in the number of members, Vpay has made a lot of money through crowdfunding and pyramid schemes. According to the author’s rough statistics, from November 23, 2017 to the end of January 2019, Vpay conducted a total of 21 pyramid schemes, with a total amount of 4.103 billion yuan.

  However, behind the crazy crowdfunding, hidden dangers are growing. After Vpay brought the crowdfunding model and pyramid scheme to the extreme, the "bubble" of the capital plate was difficult to digest, and the balance in the hands of a large number of Vpay members was not taken over. Finally, in November 2018, a large number of large households with more than 10 million yuan in currency were smashed.

  Affected by this, in December 2018, a large number of Vpay members began to panic. Although Vpay was replaced with a new vest "Vtoken" in January this year, it is obvious that a large number of Vpay members do not buy it.

  In the five air coin crowdfunding in January 2019, three air coin projects on the Vpay platform failed to meet expectations, among which RDC coins (random chain) and FAC(Fashion-chain) only completed 32.23% and 31.92% of the original planned progress, which basically failed.

  In the crowdfunding in February, the STO crowdfunding project originally planned to start on February 14th has not been followed, and there is no news.

  Even some Vpay members have revealed in the Weibo that "Vpay’s fund disk is almost untenable. At the end of 2018, Vpay changed the reinvestment system and restrictions, which may be because Vpay operators are trying to delay the running time."

  Reveal the operation mode of Vpay

  From the quiet birth of Vpay coins more than a year ago, it has developed into a 4 million-member organization. Although Vpay organizations have been repeatedly exposed by the media and attacked by the police, they can still expand wildly, and it is inseparable from its carefully planned operation mode.

  (Vpay slogan)

  From the very beginning, the Vpay project was publicized, saying that it planned to build the so-called "nine strategic layouts of V ecology", including V payment (Vpay), V mall, V community, V public welfare, V credit, V loan, V chat, V cash and V capital, and gave this goal a resounding slogan: "Vpay, create human financial freedom!" .

  And Vpay claims that the value of all digital assets is also based on the realization of this "nine strategic layouts of V Ecology". However, it is not enough to have a grand vision. Like all pyramid schemes and air coins, Vpay also found a so-called "former Google executive" Mark Mino as its platform.

  (Vpay "founder": Mark Mino)

  But what really confuses the audience with the Vpay model is that it has built a number of self-media websites that can sound at any time.

  According to the author’s statistics, there are at least 10 self-media websites operated by the team behind Vpay. Although these websites have rough pages and have not been filed in China, they update Vpay-related information every day, and the update frequency is even as high as that of most blockchain media.

  For example, the V Assistant website updates the audio content of Vpay leaders and team "teachers" every day, which is almost one of the main positions for "online brainwashing" of new Vpay members.

  (v assistant)

  In addition, the "footprint" of the Vpay team has frequently appeared on various classified content platforms, such as Himalayan, Sina Weibo, Baidu Post Bar, Simple Book and Zhihu, among which many Vpay fans have spread and developed offline for it.

  (Vtoken Himalayan course)

  On the online platform, another core position of Vpay is WeChat community. Through the first-level referees, Vpay can establish WeChat communities all over the country in a relatively short time, so as to quickly control a large number of members.

  For example, on January 20, 2019, the annual meeting planned by Vpay in Chengdu, there were only 20 local Vpay WeChat communities in Chengdu, with thousands of people.

  These Vpay WeChat communities are well-organized and well-organized, and it is basically difficult to join the group without referees. In the WeChat community, not only Vpay team leaders regularly share courses, members exchange messages, but also referees at all levels recycle the "balance" and even airdrop and pull the offer.

  In addition to the online platform, frequently holding offline meetings is also a common practice of the Vpay team to brainwash new and old members.

  (Vpay and SFIS participate in industry summit)

  In 2018, Vpay not only organized offline meetings, raised funds or issued new coins in Shenzhen, Chengdu, Hong Kong and other cities, but also participated in the blockchain industry summit repeatedly, becoming one of the regular army circles in the business world and clearing its name for itself.

  (Vpay participates in blockchain industry conference)

  It is worth noting that if the above-mentioned operation modes of the Vpay team are aimed at pyramid schemes and offline development, then in the second half of 2018, the emergence of projects such as Vpay Mall, Vpay Hotel, Vpay Supermarket and Vpay Restaurant is worthy of attention, and Vpay may be trying to whitewash itself.

  (Vpay Hotel and Vpay Commercial Street)

  Especially in January this year, after the upgrade of Vpay, the interface and operation mode of the new version of Vtoken APP are almost indistinguishable from the mainstream blockchain wallet.

  (Vtoken wallet operation interface)

  Imagine that when a MLM platform with billions of dollars and 4 million members completely puts on the cloak of "blockchain" and begins to "enter" the physical industry. Can you really tell the truth from the falsehood?

After nearly ten years of development, the business scope of China-Europe Train (Zhongyu) covers more than 140 cities in more than 40 countries, with special trains such as postal trains and timber trains, and more than 6,000 domestic and foreign partners.

In 2017, most of the cross-border films directed by actors failed to pass the box office and had a low reputation.

Since 2012, the film "Sorry for Thailand" directed by Zhao Wei and directed by Xú Zhēng has become "explosive" one after another, and acting with excellence has become a very remarkable phenomenon in the China film market in recent years. In the past year, there were more than a dozen works directed by actors. Although the proportion of them was not high compared with the annual output of more than 400 domestic films, they were a batch of works with their own flow and attention.

??

Debuts generally have a low box office reputation.

??

Last year, some directors who were transformed from actors handed in the second examination paper, and more were the first directors. The former includes Jason Wu, Alec Su, Han Han and Dapeng; The latter are from Wang Baoqiang, Huang Lei, Liming, Wang Xiaokun, Cai Kangyong, Jerry Lee, Gao Xiaopan and Wu Junru.

??

Regardless of word of mouth or box office, the former wins the latter. The highest box office was Wolf Warriors 2 (5.68 billion yuan), followed by Braving the Wind and Waves, with 1.049 billion yuan. The Dedication of Suspect X is not as good as the first two films at the box office, but it is also a qualified commercial film. Hu Jianli, editor-in-chief of the film and television weathervane, believes that this shows that Alec Su has become a mature commercial film director with stable level through experience.

??

"Grab the Red" directed by Dawn (16.9 million yuan) and "Brother, stop it!" directed by Gao Xiaopan! "(12.09 million yuan) is at the bottom of the box office and the score is 3.3 and 3.1 respectively. Among other films, Wang Baoqiang’s "Make a Big Scene in Tianzhu" won 758 million yuan at the box office, but it mainly relied on the star effect and the Spring Festival schedule. In addition, "Hunting in the Sky" and "The Demon Rinrin" also exceeded 300 million yuan each, but no matter whether the box office is good or bad, all the directors’ first films failed in word of mouth, and the douban scores were mostly between 3 and 5. According to Hu Jianli’s analysis, when an actor is a director across the border, the works produced actually have certain commonalities. For example, the actors’ performances and lines are the easiest to shine, and the overall grasp of the film, especially the structure and connotation of the film, needs to be tempered.

??

Tan Fei, an investor in film and television, believes that compared with previous years, the threshold for actors to make a blockbuster and successfully transform with the director’s debut has become higher and higher, because "the requirements of the audience are getting higher and higher. Although you are famous as an actor, if the director’s work is not good, the audience will not buy it".

??

Cross-border directorship becomes "addiction"

??

Over the past few years, actors’ campaigns as directors in the film market have not all been successful. Only a few people have truly transformed smoothly, and more people’s works have been put into the market, which soon became cannon fodder.

??

The film critic Sai Ren said, in fact, no matter in the world film industry or in China film industry, it is an uninterrupted tradition to play well and guide. Moreover, in all kinds of films, the success rate of actors transforming into directors is much higher than others. He casually cited a lot of examples, such as Wu Tianming, Zhang Yimou, Li Hsing, Hou Xiaoxian, Li Hanxiang, Zhang Aijia, etc. "So I don’t agree that many actors have lowered the threshold of directing. How do you know that people can’t direct good films?"

??

Indeed, the transformation of actors into directors has many inherent advantages. Hu Jianli analyzed that stars have popularity and influence, which is not only easy to attract investment when preparing movies, but also has a fan consumption base at the box office, which makes it easy to succeed in the market with half the effort. Cui Ting, a film critic, believes that there is a lot of hot money in the China film market, and many investors have money and no projects. "As long as actors get along well in the industry, they are not only investments, but also scripts and teams. And many actors know the audience better. "

??

So, why are some actors’ works not recognized? Fang Li, a famous producer, believes that the key factor is the motivation of filming. "Some actors have stayed in this circle for a long time, have the impulse to express and have their own ideas; There is another one, which is trapped by capital. Isn’t IP particularly popular in recent years? The name of the star can also be regarded as an IP. It is irresponsible to the audience to rush into the horse and circle money. " He recalled that when he helped Han Han’s directorial debut as a producer, he took a fancy to Han Han’s "no hurry" and "impulsiveness". "He first came to talk to me in 2011 and said that he had the idea of becoming a director. He had already made several short films with his photography partner Liao, but he didn’t start making movies until 2014."

??

A new wave of cross-border works is on the road.

??

I haven’t had time to recover from last year’s cross-border works, and recently several works directed by actors are about to be released. For example, Zhang Xinyi’s romantic film, which is about to meet the audience, is directed and acted by herself. It is said that for this directorial debut, she spent nearly two years, during which almost all other work was put off.

??

Just at the end of December, another batch of cross-border films were also killed. On the evening of December 23rd, Rene Liu issued a document in Weibo, announcing that his directorial debut was finished. The film, starring Zhou Dongyu and Jing Bo Ran, tells a love story similar to a song and will meet the audience this year. On December 24th last year, comedian Xiao Shenyang also announced that his first film as a director was finished. The film was prepared for nearly two years and shot for more than three months, with Taiwan Province actress Vivian Sung as the No.1.

??

In addition to these finished works, some have been started or are being prepared. For example, the love movie "Writing Poems for You", directed and performed by singer Wu Kequn, recently got the news that it was turned on in Guangzhou. The title of the movie comes from a song he once sang. The comedy directed by Song Xiaobao also announced that it will be launched after the Spring Festival. In addition, Chinese film versions in Tony Leung Ka Fai, Bo Huang and Wallace Chung are also being filmed.

??

Avoiding cannon fodder requires more precipitation.

??

So many works on the road, how to avoid becoming cannon fodder?

??

Hong Kong director Chen Kexin once said that among many actors, he is very optimistic about Bo Huang as a director, because it is actually easier for a good actor to be a director. Bo Huang "not only has excellent analytical skills, but also has rich studio experience". The contestants also mentioned that good actors, especially drama actors, tend to be good directors. "This is because they have to take care of many things when performing, such as the reaction of the actors in the play, such as the audience. This is actually a kind of director thinking training. Nowadays, many film and television actors can’t even take care of themselves, let alone more complicated director thinking. "

??

Tan Fei said that it is actually a good thing for many actors to transform into directors. "It shows that our industry is more open and inclusive, but the bad side is that many people may be impetuous." He said that the director is a miscellaneous person, who needs to reserve a lot of knowledge and practical ability and learn more. "A film will take at least two or three years to make, and actors must be prepared to give up many things, such as many opportunities to make money. The job of directing must not be false."

??

"No matter what you do, you will have a failed experience. Movies need to be precipitated. Few directors are particularly good when they come up with several films. If you really want to be a director, you have to calm down and shoot for ten years." In Cui Ting’s view, a really good director should shoot all kinds of films. "Now these actors are transforming into directors, and the types of films they shoot are too single, not comedies or romantic films. They should try different types."

Hou Qunfeng, a volunteer of Zhangjiakou Winter Olympics English, developed a team of 2,000 people in one year.

On April 19th, Winter Olympics English volunteers came to Yaojiafang Primary School in Zhangjiakou.

Volunteers after 90s became attached to Winter Olympics.

Come to Zhangjiakou alone and pull up the volunteer team.

"Heads knees shoulders…… …" Accompanied by a simple and lively melody, pupils sang and danced under the guidance of volunteer teachers, with simple English words catchy and humorous and exaggerated movements full of movement. After singing a song, the children swarmed around Mr. Hou, scrambling to find him to sign his book and hand.

On the afternoon of April 19th, Hou Qunfeng, a post-90s volunteer, was treated like a star in the English class of Yaojiafang Primary School in Zhangjiakou.

Hou Qunfeng is the head of the Winter Olympics English Project of Zhangjiakou Charity Volunteer Association. He is 27 years old and is from Chenzhou, Hunan. Hou Qunfeng was born in a peasant family. He experienced the hardships of life from an early age and learned to give back to the society early. Since high school, he has been collecting waste products to support students with difficulties; In 2011, he was admitted to the English Department of Hunan University of Humanities and Science, and participated in voluntary service activities during his college years, serving as the head of a public welfare organization; Teach in a school for the deaf, and support more than 20 children by collecting waste.

In July 2014, Hou Qunfeng started his "one-dollar travel around the world" and joined the earthquake volunteer rescue twice during his journey.

In August 2014, Yunnan Ludian earthquake, he set up a rescue team and joined local militia to rescue three survivors. "I searched and rescued in the ruins once, but I didn’t have time to run, and I was buried alive once." He saved people and was saved by others.

In April 2015, Hou Qunfeng heard of a major earthquake in Nepal during his trip and decided to participate in the rescue. The rescue lasted for two months. He helped carry and distribute relief supplies, disinfected and prevented epidemic in disaster areas, and then began to raise funds to build schools, help school teachers take care of orphans together, and help organizations for the elderly, the sick and the disabled raise money …

In Nepal, Hou Qunfeng met Jia Qinghe, a volunteer from Zhangjiakou. In April 2017, Zhangjiakou Charity Volunteers Federation was established, with Jia Qinghe as the president. After receiving the invitation, Hou Qunfeng quit his job in Beijing and came to Zhangjiakou.

How to pull up the volunteer team when you are a stranger? In Hou Qunfeng’s own words, he was enthusiastic and "cheeky". A few days after he first came to Zhangjiakou, a foreigner in the street asked him for directions. "He is an international student of Hebei North College. I have been chatting and talking to him about the idea of forming a team of English volunteers for the Winter Olympics. He is also very interested and promised to try to mobilize his classmates. " As a result, Richy from Ghana became the first teammate. With their efforts, more than 400 students from Northern College joined the volunteer team. More and more volunteer groups in Zhangjiakou have also joined the Winter Olympics English Volunteer Service Team of the Charity Volunteer Association. In a year, the team has been expanding, with more than 2,000 registered volunteers, including foreign volunteers from more than ten countries, including Ghana, Bangladesh, Britain, Pakistan and Nepal.

The team is up, which groups are served? From the uncles and aunts in the community, to taxi drivers, hotel service personnel, to primary schools in urban and suburban areas, Hou Qunfeng began to "lobby". How can old people in their sixties and seventies persuade them? Hou Qunfeng figured out how to mark the pronunciation with Chinese characters, which made it easy for the elderly to remember. He took this booklet and walked around the streets, chatting with uncles and aunts to mobilize. How to arrange the time for primary school students to attend classes, and what content is suitable for teaching to lay the foundation for the next school textbook teaching? He contacted and communicated with the urban areas and surrounding schools one by one, and arranged students’ courses without affecting their daily courses.

Winter Olympics English class, the most passionate teacher

On the afternoon of 19th, three foreign students from North College attended Yaojiafang Primary School with Hou Qunfeng.

FJ has rich teaching experience. In class, FJ is persuasive, introducing English pronunciations of various parts of the body to children through cards and slides, and leading them to read aloud over and over again. Then divide the class into three groups, choose representatives to PK, listen to the words and point out the corresponding body parts, and the winner will get a "medal".


Hou Qunfeng, the founder of the volunteer service team, is with the children.

 

Vicky is a girl with a bright smile and affinity, and she is very popular among students. Every class, she will bring a lot of candy, and students who answer questions will get this sweet encouragement. Almost all students raise their hands to answer every question.

Among the three classes, the class led by John reads aloud the loudest. John’s reading is very vivid and his body language is varied. When he heard who had nonstandard pronunciation, he patiently corrected them one by one. Some students pronounced hair as head, and John grabbed his hair and reminded him over and over again until the pronunciation was correct, and high-fived them. "I can see you? John is actually a shy boy. " Hou Qunfeng said that John is a little shy on weekdays, and when he comes to class, he feels like a different person, and he is full of passion.

"Volunteer English class is the children’s favorite. It starts at 4 pm, and they are waiting in the classroom early." The teacher of Yaojiafang Primary School said. Gao Ruixue, a child from Class Two, Grade Two, told the reporter that he especially likes these volunteer teachers and is very fun and happy to learn English.

"We had classes on the fourth floor last year, and now we have changed to the first floor." Hou Qunfeng said with a smile that the classroom atmosphere was particularly High. He sang and danced with English songs and felt the floor shaking.

After the course, the students reluctantly bid farewell to the volunteer teacher. Some children quietly left a small gift for the teacher, a card made by themselves or a small doll on the podium.

"Although I am very tired, every time I see the children’s smiles, I feel that my work is valuable." Hou Qunfeng revealed that the current Winter Olympics English project covers more than 40 communities and nearly 40 classes in 10 primary schools in Zhangjiakou. His office is full of volunteer service schedules, and now there are more than 80 activities every week.

This team of English volunteers for the Winter Olympics is still expanding. "Our goal this year is to break through 3,000 people," Hou Qunfeng told reporters. In order to further popularize Winter Olympics English, they opened two English columns with Zhangjiakou TV and Zhangjiakou Daily. At the same time, we will jointly establish a volunteer team for consultation and translation with major hospitals in Zhangjiakou to provide translation volunteer services for foreign friends. Another preparatory team is a volunteer service lecturer group for sign language promotion jointly organized by Zhangjiakou Special School to prepare for the upcoming Paralympic Games.

Save the hero and form a team

We hope to have our rescue team in the Winter Olympics.

The Winter Olympics English Volunteer Service Team is one of the teams of Zhangjiakou Charity Volunteer Federation. At present, the Federation has a total of 95 volunteer teams with more than 8,000 registered members, and more than 30,000 volunteers are contributing to creating a civilized city for Zhangjiakou and welcoming the Winter Olympics.

As a winter Olympic city, it is an inevitable requirement to realize green travel. Zhangjiakou charity volunteer Green Zhangyuan Environmental Protection Team promotes environmental protection and advocates green travel, making green transportation a new business card for Zhangjiakou’s traffic development.

More and more Zhangjiakou people regard ice and snow sports as a new way of life, and major snow resorts have also attracted ice and snow sports enthusiasts from all over the country. The Winter Olympics is approaching, and a group of volunteers with professional rescue experience in Zhangjiakou are preparing for the ice and snow rescue team.

Shen Zhanjun, 50, is now the captain of the Emergency Rescue Corps of the Charity Volunteer Association. He was awarded the title of being a hero in Hebei Province and a model in Zhangjiakou. In 2017, the Qingshuihe Rescue Team was established.

Qingshui River is a tributary of Yanghe River in Yongding River system, which runs through Zhangjiakou city. "Every year in the summer, someone will fall into the river, sometimes more than 20 people a year. Last year, I discussed with a few like-minded friends and decided to set up a professional rescue team. " Shen Zhanjun introduced that there are currently 106 rescuers in the rescue team, with a total of more than 380 volunteers. More than 20 members come from Zhangjiakou Swimming Team and Zhangjiakou Winter Swimming Team, 4 of them hold national outdoor water rescue certificates and have rich experience in river rescue. In addition, there are more than 100 specialized drivers, medical care and logistics support personnel. According to the individual time, the team members will conduct uninterrupted inspections in three shifts from 5 am to 10 pm. "Last year we rescued 11 people and saved three people." Shen Zhanjun told reporters that in addition to water rescue, they also organized volunteers to set up an outdoor mountain rescue team and prepared to set up an ice and snow rescue team. At the end of last year, he proposed a plan to the Chongli District Government, and under the organization of the district government, he discussed with the heads of major ski resorts. "All major ski resorts have their own rescue teams, but after all, the scale is limited. If we gather together and set up an ice and snow rescue team through targeted training, it is much better than fighting alone and can improve rescue efficiency. " Shen Zhanjun is brewing this professional ice and snow rescue team that unites all forces. According to the plan, the selected players will receive a three-month professional training. "I hope that in the 2022 Winter Olympics, there will be an ice and snow rescue team set up by our Zhangjiakou volunteers themselves!" Shen Zhanjun said.

Employment or entrepreneurship? "Multiple-choice Questions" for 8.2 million college graduates

  Beijing, April 24 (Leng Haoyang), the client of Zhongxin. com, is also in the graduation season. At this time of the year, the whereabouts of college graduates will attract social attention. This year, more than 8.2 million college graduates will leave school. How will they choose between starting a business and getting employment? At the same time, what about the view that "employment is a compulsory course before starting a business" in recent years?

  Choose entrepreneurship or employment?

  "I have the idea of starting a business, but I feel that the time is not ripe. I’d better find a job first and get familiar with the social environment before watching." A senior student of Beijing Normal University told the reporter of Zhongxin.com..

  In the interview, the reporter found that there are not a few students with similar ideas. According to the 2017 China University Students’ Entrepreneurship Report released by China Renmin University, China university students’ entrepreneurial will continues to rise, and nearly 90% of them have considered starting a business, among which 26% have a strong or strong entrepreneurial will.

  In September 2017, at the press conference held by the Ministry of Education, Wu Yan, director of the Higher Education Department of the Ministry of Education, introduced that the entrepreneurial rate of China university graduates has reached 3%, nearly double the level of 1.6% in developed countries.

  Zhang Yuan was admitted to Sichuan University in 2011. During his stay at school, he participated in many college students’ innovation and entrepreneurship competitions and won awards. In the eyes of many students, Zhang Yuan has always been associated with entrepreneurship.

  In 2015, after graduating from college, Zhang Yuan did not choose to start a business. In his view, the lack of social resources and the lack of ability to control the market are still stumbling blocks on his entrepreneurial road. So, he joined a consulting company, prepared to exercise himself, and wanted to take the opportunity to see if there was market demand for his entrepreneurial projects.

  In June 2017, Zhang Yuan, who has been working in the consulting industry for two years, embarked on the road of entrepreneurship. With his carefully prepared projects, he not only got the investment smoothly, but also got the qualification to settle in Tianjin and the tax exemption for enterprises.

  Now, Zhang Yuan, who is about to start a business for one year, has set up a team of five people and got his share in the market. Zhang Yuan said that the feeling after starting a business is still very different. "It is a great sense of accomplishment to see that your project can grow up gradually through your own efforts."

  "But I often feel that it is difficult to ride a tiger." Zhang Yuan told the reporter of Zhongxin. com that after starting a business, the work intensity suddenly increased and the pressure was much greater, so he had no time to take care of his own life. "I can’t slack off for my own entrepreneurial dream and for the efforts of every member of the team."

  Employment is a compulsory course before starting a business?

  Although the entrepreneurial enthusiasm of graduates is high, the success rate of entrepreneurship is not high. In recent years, there is a voice in the society that employment is a "compulsory course" for college graduates who have just left school. How should this view be viewed?

  Chu Zhaohui, a researcher at China Academy of Educational Sciences, said in an interview with Zhongxin. com that rationality is very important for graduates to choose entrepreneurship. In his view, many graduates are impulsive in choosing to start a business, and the risk will be higher if they choose to start a business without corresponding social resources and sufficient entrepreneurial ability.

  But he also believes that the term "compulsory course" is not accurate. "You don’t have to find a stable job before starting a business. Some students pay close attention to the social environment at school and take part in many social activities. Entrepreneurship is a good choice for students with this ability and resources. " Chu Zhaohui said.

  Zhang Baoyi, director of the Institute of Sociology of Tianjin Academy of Social Sciences, told Zhongxin. com that after leaving the campus, college students have entered the society for a short time and their understanding of the market is not clear enough. It is best to observe the market and gather resources through employment first, so as to accumulate experience and ability for starting a business.

  At the same time, he also said that students with strong entrepreneurial will had better choose Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen and other cities to start businesses, because the entrepreneurial environment in these cities is relatively mature, entrepreneurs have good projects, and there are many opportunities for other marketing and venture capital.

  Career planning is very important.

  "Whether it is employment or entrepreneurship, it is a stage to realize the value of life. For graduates, the most important thing is to make a good career plan. " Huang Feikai, head of the student section of the School of Public Administration of the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, told the reporter of Zhongxin.com.

  In addition, he also said that employment and entrepreneurship have different emphases and different requirements for students’ ability. There is no absolute advantage or disadvantage. What really matters is to choose the one that is more suitable for you. I hope students don’t follow the trend and think carefully about their own situation and market environment.

  A person in charge of the recruitment of a company in Beijing told the reporter of Zhongxin.com that many job seekers she came into contact with lacked clear career plans. "Many students don’t know what they want to do in the future and lack understanding of their core competitiveness. Such job seekers will naturally lack competitiveness." The person in charge said.

  In this regard, Chu Zhaohui suggested that graduates should first grasp the general direction in their career planning. One is to be clear about their aspirations, advantages and potential. The second is to find the needs of society and know whether their own advantages are compatible with the needs of society.

  Chu Zhaohui suggested that graduates should combine these two points. First set the general development direction, and then consider other factors comprehensively. (At the request of the interviewee, some characters in the text are pseudonyms) (End)

Decompression consumption is favored by experts: "Emotional consumption" urges heat to decompress the economy

  The fast pace of city life makes everyone pursue spiritual "healing" after work. The need to relieve stress and relax has also spawned some new formats, such as archery, Muay Thai, land surfing and playing tufting, which are being sought after by more and more young people.

  Draw your bow, take a deep breath, hit the target with a "whew", and the troubles and pressures are invisibly taken away by the arrows that leave the string. In an archery hall in Wuhan, the arrow path is full of young people who experience archery fun and relax.

  Customer Ms. Ren:When an arrow goes out and you are very focused, you forget other pressures around you.

  He Long, coach of Archery Hall:Compared with last month, the flow of people this month has increased by about 70%.

  In Kunming, Yunnan, an indoor venue of more than 7,000 square meters, the experiencer can jump freely in the trampoline area, complete fancy dunks in the slam dunk area, climb the eaves like a martial arts expert in the movie in the rock climbing area, and sweep away all the pressure in the scenery full of science and technology and the music with strong rhythm. Mengchong Experience Hall is a good place for many young people to relax on weekends. Handmade a canvas in the museum, a tufting gun and several rolls of wool, and operated on the cloth board "chug chug", can also make people immerse themselves in it and play for hours.

  Customer Ms. Zhou:Cats and puppies have no sense of distance, and they will come to you actively, and you will feel the warmth of being needed.

  Ms. Wang, a tufting experiencer:Tufting (tufting) uses wool to print some patterns that you like, which makes people feel very fulfilled.

  The demand for decompression has also spawned some new formats. In this upside-down museum in Wuhan, Hubei Province, the whole space is designed with a 180 inverted real scene, and all objects are fixed on the "roof". Just stand, lie down, set up the photo action and rotate the mobile phone, and you can reverse the earth, and easily unlock the "flying over the eaves" and the "super power" suspended in the air in one second. In this indoor decompression hall in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, wonderful scenes and creative devices allow young people to get more diverse experiences here.

  The rising sales of decompression products bring new entrepreneurial opportunities.

  With the rising demand for decompression consumption, businesses from all walks of life are also eyeing this decompression market, which is "popular" by young people. Last year, data showed that the overall growth rate of decompression toys in a shopping platform reached 40%, emerging decompression products kept emerging, and various new services related to decompression kept emerging, which also provided more new space for entrepreneurship.

  In an online shopping platform, fresh small toys such as fingertip gyro and decompression Rubik’s cube, which are mainly decompressed, range in price from several yuan to several tens of yuan, and the sales are very hot. In the product introduction, merchants will also mention that these toys are helpful for emotional adjustment.

  From the feedback of buyers, this unconscious pressing action and simple "bam bam" sound effect can relieve stress and psychological anxiety to some extent. At present, in addition to the online shopping platform, all kinds of decompression toys are also sold in online stores.

  In the small commodity market in Yiwu, Zhejiang Province, the reporter found during the visit that many shops sold more than 10,000 pieces of decompression toys, and the monthly sales of some "explosive" decompression toys could reach 700,000 to 800,000 pieces.

  The increase in market orders has also boosted the production enthusiasm of the decompression toy factory. In Yiwu, a large toy manufacturer, 50 injection molding machines are running at full capacity to make a batch of decompressed toy orders.

  In addition to the hot sales of decompression products, new services related to decompression are constantly emerging, and many entrepreneurs are also targeting this market. This one-year-old handmade museum in Kunming, Yunnan, can experience many handmade projects such as quartz sand painting and tufting. During the peak period, the shops are often full, and the daily income is around 1000 yuan.

  Expert interpretation: "Emotional consumption" urges heat to decompress the economy.

  Why are more and more young people keen on decompressing consumption now? Mainly because young people are more willing to pay for consumer products that can provide emotional value.

  Relevant data show that there are currently 810 enterprises in China whose names or business scope or products, services or trademarks contain "decompression". Last year alone, there were more than 70 newly registered enterprises, a year-on-year increase of 94.59%. In the opinion of experts, behind the hot consumption of decompression is the result of the joint action of market supply and demand. In the long run, it is necessary to meet the needs of consumers more accurately and cultivate new growth points for decompressing the consumer market.

  Wang Yun, Associate Professor, School of Economics, Renmin University of China:Such an explosive growth of decompression products and services is also due to the joint role of both sides of the market. Then, from the supply side of the market, (in the future) can they provide consumers with better services and commodities, including some upgrades to their own products and services, so that everyone can better relieve the pressure and relax their physical and mental feelings, which is also a very good kinetic energy to help these businesses continue to develop in this industry.

China Mobile responds that mobile phone traffic "runs fast": or it is automatically updated in the background.

Phoenix Technology News On October 27th, in response to the recent media concern about the problem of "mobile phone traffic running fast", the relevant person in charge of China Mobile said: the relevant reports are not true, and mobile phone traffic will not "run fast".

China Mobile said that the billing system has a strict inspection and verification mechanism, and has passed the continuous inspection and testing by competent departments at all levels and independent third parties. The efficiency, stability and accuracy of the system are at the leading level in the world. If the traffic is not cleared in the current month, it changes the charging rules, which realizes the rolling function of traffic and does not affect the traffic measurement. For the same picture or video, there is no change in the traffic measurement before and after the traffic is not cleared in the current month.

In response to relevant reports, China Mobile said that it had specially organized a traffic billing test, and found no problem of "mobile phone traffic running fast", and promised that "billing error will be returned twice".

At the same time, Mobile said that with the continuous improvement of the 4G network, more intelligent terminals were launched, and richer mobile phone applications stimulated and improved customers’ traffic consumption to some extent. In addition, many applications in smart phones "inadvertently" generate online traffic without customers’ knowledge. For example, the weather forecast program automatically updates the weather data regularly; Mobile phone antivirus software automatically downloads virus database; In order to ensure the timely receipt of mail, the mobile phone mail receiving and dispatching software regularly visits the mail server for inquiry; The software regularly checks the version, upgrades or downloads patch software; Free games with advertising banners or advertising pop-up content updates. There is also a part of traffic consumption caused by viruses and Trojans in mobile phones.

In order to avoid unnecessary data traffic, China Mobile advises customers to pay attention to the following items when using smart phones:

1. When quitting the application software on the smart phone, try to use the "Quit" option in the software menu instead of simply quitting the operation interface.

2. Regularly clean up background running programs. According to the operation method of the used smart phone, enter the task manager, find the application that has been used but is still running in the background, and forcibly stop the application to ensure complete exit.

3. Turn off the functions of data push and automatic update in the settings of various application programs, use manual update control, and then manually update when you need to query.

4. Turn off the automatic sending and receiving function of mobile email.
