How many kinds of traditional dances do you know?

  "Singing tells the story, dancing tells the story". There are traces of dance origins in Lingnan, which can be traced back to three or four thousand years ago. The dancing pottery pieces found in the Shixia site in Maba Town, Qujiang, Shaoguan City in 1985 and the stone carvings and rock paintings found in the Treasure Cave in Baojingwan, Gaolan Island, Zhuhai in 1989 all prove that the local ancestors had the custom of dancing as early as the pre-Qin period.

  There are also many traditional dances in Guangzhou’s rich intangible cultural heritage list. They either come from the fields or grow in the waves; Or beautiful, or thick Together with many other intangible cultural heritages, they form a kaleidoscope of life and paint a splendid spiritual picture. The origin of many traditional dances is related to agricultural society. Today, with the changes of urban and rural areas, the cultural ecology on which many traditional dances depend is changing rapidly. On the other hand, the emergence of some new technologies and new ways has also made many traditional dances that have never left the "small world" become the "new favorites" in the digital world, making people see the diversity of culture.

  Fish lanterns, props of aquarium dance and octopus dance, are popular.

  In recent years, with the spread of new media, one of the traditional dances in Guangzhou is Shui nationality dance. "Conghua Shuizu Dance, also known as’ Carp Dance’ or’ Fish Lantern Dance’, originated from Caotang Society in Longqiao Village, Conghua District. It has been more than 200 years since the reign of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty," Li Jianzhong, a representative inheritor of Conghua Shuizu Dance, a provincial intangible project, told reporters. "Every household in ancient times could weave props. At the beginning of the new year, everyone should take part in the team of’ dancing carp’. Due to historical reasons, it was once interrupted, and it was re-emphasized in the 1990 s, and it was passed down to today by the excavation and protection of cultural centers. "

  Li Jianzhong said that the aquarium dance consists of three parts: making props, offering sacrifices to fish gods and swimming in fish dances. At first, people paraded around the village holding homemade carp props for blessing. Because they had to do farm work during the day, most of them chose to do it at night, so they put candles in the props, accompanied by gongs and drums and conch boats, paraded around the fish pond in front of the village, and then went through the village to perform. Li Jingquan, a scholar at the end of the Qing Dynasty, wrote two pairs of essays for this purpose: one is "grass carp go to the door, and fish jump in the pond"; The second is that "the carp jumps from the spring drum waves, and the fish swim at the beginning of the night."

  Up to now, there have been four movements of Shui dance: "Fish swimming in spring water", "Fish frolicking with shrimp", "Fish leaping over the dragon gate" and "Fish rising with joy", and the performance lineup is even larger, with the roles of dragon ball, anchovy, big carp, small carp, shrimp soldier and crab general, and more than 60 people participated in the dance. The influence of the team is also constantly improving, and they can be seen in large and small activities from district level to national level. In May, 2022, the project of "Conghua Shuizu Dance" was included in the catalogue of "The Eighth Batch of Provincial Intangible Cultural Heritage Representative Projects in Guangdong Province".

  Li Jianzhong introduced that in addition to the unique performance form, the Shui dance props are also deeply loved by the public, and they have entered the relevant cultural and archival institutions. Props are made from bamboo in the village, and then through a series of steps, such as weaving the skeleton, installing light belts, sealing rice paper, sealing light cloth, painting scales and finishing touches, a puffed carp can be completed. "Eyes are the charm of the whole carp, and it is necessary to paint with a sense of light to show its spirit!"

  Under the guidance of Conghua District Cultural Center, Caotang Society’s "Conghua Shui Heritage Service Team" was formally established in April 2021. All the members came from the villagers in the village, ranging from 63 years old to 21 years old. Every Friday night, they organize rehearsals. At this time, not only the players, but also the villagers have a happy time.

  It’s somewhat similar, and there’s the fish dance. Aoyu, people have given it a good meaning of academic progress, and at the same time, it is also the protector of fishermen. Aoyu Dance is a unique folk art in Panyu District, with a history of more than 600 years. As a kind of fish lantern dance, Aoyu dance has one male and one female, which shows the unique color of water town in the dance performance plot and props production.

  "God beast" dance

  Full of celebration and blessing for the bumper harvest.

  Dance

  Like a lion pouncing on a rabbit, a tiger steps into the wind.

  "Guangzhou dances to see Zengcheng, and Zengcheng dances to see Paitan Jiasongling". Zhang’s "Dance Dance" in Jiasongling Village, which started in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, was listed as an intangible cultural heritage project in Guangdong Province as early as 2007. It is also a performance activity that local Hakkas hold on every happy occasion.

  Dance pays attention to "the horse should be steady and the punch should be fierce, like a lion pouncing on a rabbit, and the tiger steps will give birth to the wind." In folklore, the animal is the ninth son of the dragon and a famous "lucky beast". When dancing, one person dances the head, two people dance the body and the tail, and the other two people play the Monkey King and the sand monk respectively. After performing some jumping and tumbling on the spot, with the accompaniment of gongs, drums and cymbals, the brave warrior and Friar Sand and the Monkey King performed the plot actions of worshiping the mountain, coming out of the mountain, teasing the monkey, picking green trees and returning to the mountain in sequence, showing a lively and peaceful atmosphere.

  In recent years, with the support of all parties, there are two Guangzhou-level heritage bases and one Zengcheng-level heritage base, and there are high-level teachers composed of Guangdong-level inheritors Zhang Yongmu, Zengcheng-level inheritors Zhang Jingbin and Zhong Weihong. At present, the inheritance of dance is completely open, and it is very popular in schools. In 2023, there were more than 30 students enrolled in Paitan No.2 Primary School and as many as 60 students in Paitan Middle School.

  kirin dance

  Draw lessons from lion dance, martial arts and other movements

  Another kind of "god beast" dance is the unicorn dance distributed in Huangge Town, Nansha District. It draws lessons from the movements and skills such as lion dance and martial arts in the Pearl River Delta. According to ancient legends, Kirin is shaped into the image of a benevolent beast with a dragon head, a lion’s body, antlers, sheep’s hoofs and oxtail, which is vivid and vivid. When dancing, there are specific artistic routines and dance skills, and the accompaniment music adopts rhythmic gongs and drums. It is still an important entertainment for local people.

  Fire dragon dance

  Become an online and offline carnival

  "Dance faucet, no sorrow; Touch the dragon beard, step by step; Wear the dragon bottom, eye-catching; Not long ago, children in Qinghu Village, Junhe Street, Baiyun District were carrying lanterns and singing songs while walking through the streets. The fire dragon shuttled through the crowd, shining brilliantly.

  The tradition of dancing dragon to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival bears the beautiful expectation of good weather, peaceful country and people’s safety. On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival every year, people compete to see the fire dragon in Qinghe Street, Shima Village, Jianggao Zhenjiang Village, Baiyun Lake Xiamao Village and Da Lang Village. There are 25 dragon parades in Junhe Street alone this year. The "dragon" made of rattan and banyan leaves in each village is gathered in the archway and square, and the dragon dances wildly in the sound of firecrackers, which is shocking and vigorous. The dragon making ceremony and parade ceremony have become the carnival of countless people online and offline.

  In Baiyun District, the fire dragon has become a unique cultural "IP". Huang Junying and He Baowen, Cantonese opera crosstalk performers, performed the original works of "Talking about the Ancient Fire Dragon"; Pop-up book’s production of the dragon, the Dragon Culture Theater, the VR experience of the dragon, the original hand-painted IP puppet of "Dragon King" and other interesting and interactive ways make people close to the dragon culture and love the local nostalgia.

  Fire dog

  Is it "nine" or "dog"?

  The dance related to "fire" is not just dragon dance. Dancing the fire dog, also known as "Night on Mache", is a large-scale folk art activity popular in Mache Village of Zengcheng, with a history of more than 600 years. In fact, "Fire Dog" is not a dog, and its dance props include nine animal models made of bamboo sticks, such as dragon, phoenix, lion, unicorn, deer, rhinoceros, toad, precious duck and koi fish. The Cantonese dialect "Nine" is homophonic with "Dog", so people are used to calling it "Dance Fire Dog".

  When dancing the fire dog, the incense on these props is lit, and the thick smoke emitted by the incense envelops the village in the misty mountains and seas, which is spectacular. The activity of dancing fire dogs not only contains the will to drive away plague and evil spirits, but also is full of celebration of bumper harvest and blessing for the coming year.

  Hakka lion

  The lion’s head looks like a cat.

  Hakka lion, also known as head lion, Yi and Bian, has a cat-like head, which is popular among the Hakka people in Conghua. It is a kind of folk lion dance with a long history and is rare. On occasions such as New Year’s greetings and birthday celebrations, in Shuizhai, a village where Hakka people live in Conghua, people will beat gongs, drums and suona, set up a lion with a cat’s head, put on a mask and dance the lion in a flash.

  The lion dance with a cat’s head is different from the general lion dance in its modeling, dance steps and drum music. The lion’s head is smaller than the general local lion’s head, with two bundles of lush wheat straw on its head, which is full of vitality.

  "The honeysuckle fire tree, the dancing platform, the drama of fish dragons and dragons, and the skill of stepping on the swing are incomparable", which is a spectacular scene of festival dance on the land of Lingnan written by the ancients.

  Today, similar scenes are still passed down among high-rise buildings and thousands of lights. (Text/Guangzhou Daily, all-media reporter Bu Songzhu/Li Jianzhong, provided by Guangzhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Center)

Dali Erhai Pollution Control Restaurant has been closed for one year, and some of it has been transformed and opened.

   Yunnan Net News (Reporter Xiong Qiang Zhao Lihao) On March 31 last year, Dali City, Yunnan Province issued the "Notice on Special Renovation of Catering Inn Service Industry in the Core Area of Erhai River Basin Water Ecological Protection Zone", announcing the demarcation of the core area. It is required that before April 10, including the core area and the Erhai natural village around the lake where the red line in the core area passes, all relevant catering and inn operators will suspend business by themselves and accept business licenses, environmental protection and other inspections.

  As a result, nearly 2,000 inns and restaurants in Erhai Lake were shut down, which was called the strictest rectification in history, and the poems and distant places of netizens all the way to the west were temporarily put on hold. Nowadays, a year has passed in a hurry. For inns and restaurants, it is a process of waiting for rebirth in pain.

  Shuanglang Town, located on the northeast bank of Erhai Lake, has been visited by tourists from all over the country every year because of the beautiful scenery of the fishing village, and it is hard to find a room on holidays. However, since April last year, in order to protect the water ecological environment of Erhai Lake Basin, Dali has carried out special rectification of the catering inn service industry in the core area, and Shuanglang Town has shut down and reformed the inns and catering industry within its jurisdiction. The bustling scene in the past no longer exists, and it has been replaced by construction pollution control.

  On the evening of May 9, it was reported that some inns in Shuanglang Town had been rebuilt and started to resume operation after hanging the "green card" issued by the government. On the morning of May 10th, Shi Guodong, deputy director of Shuanglang Ancient Town Scenic Area Management Committee, confirmed the news to the reporter.

  According to Shi Guodong, there are 628 registered inns and restaurants in Shuanglang Town, of which 80 have reached the standard of resuming business, including 53 inns and 27 restaurants. As of May 9th, 7 inns and 2 restaurants have officially opened. "In addition to the land certificate, planning certificate, business administration certificate, environmental guarantee, food hygiene and safety certificate, public security fire protection certificate and industry license, the opened inn catering industry also needs to install electronic tax control equipment and public security gold and silicon system." He said that for business households that meet the requirements, they still need to meet six indicators to pass the acceptance and publicity of Shuanglang Town, and these six indicators mainly involve sewage treatment, landscape improvement, fee collection, tax system, gold and silicon system and smart tourism.

  Shi Guodong further explained that for business operators who intend to resume business, it is necessary to ensure the normal operation of environmental protection facilities and do a good job in sewage collection, treatment and entering the municipal pipe network; Transform the buildings it manages into more beautiful and tidy; Pay the sewage treatment and garbage removal fees in full according to the standard; Install electronic tax control equipment in time; Open the gold-silicon system and cooperate with the public security to manage foreign personnel; All business households must also combine "global tourism" and "a mobile phone tour Yunnan smart tourism" to set aside ports to ensure docking when the APP is opened.

  Shuanglang "Xieyu Luozhou Inn" obtained the permission to resume business on May 8, and the green sign of "Resume Business" has been hung on the gate of the inn. Ms. Li, the person in charge of the inn, told the reporter that since the inn was closed for rectification, sewage and water purification facilities have been installed, and at the same time, the landscape of the inn has been upgraded, including the newly added green garden on the top floor, which cost more than 200,000 yuan. For these expenses, Ms. Li thinks it is worth it, because she wants to make the inn fine and fine, and at the same time create a good reputation. With a huge cost, will the hotel accommodation price increase? Ms. Li said that she still charges at the original price and will not raise the price.

  "It has reached the discharge standard and it is acceptable to start business." Mr. Zhao, a native of Dali, said after learning that the restaurant in Shuanglang was about to resume operation, he hoped that Shuanglang would be strictly planned and no new inn restaurants would be built. He believes that there is no water source injected into Erhai Lake in Haidong, and the pressure of sewage discharge will increase if there are too many people, which is easy to cause pollution and the tourism experience is poor, so it is necessary to limit the flow appropriately.

  Li Meng (not his real name), who lives in Shuanglang, said that during the renovation period, all the restaurants and restaurants in the inn were closed, and there was no place to eat, drink and have fun with friends when he got home on holiday. It is obvious to all that the environment of the Double Corridor is getting better now. The stone road on the main street, the greening along the roadside and the buildings at the entrance of the village are completely different from the past. The green algae in Erhai Lake were gone before. She hopes that this rectification can be thorough and avoid repeated tossing.

  Talking about the scenery of the Double Corridor, the "big head" of tourists from other provinces is still full of interest. A few years ago, he and his friends traveled by car and experienced the experience of "parking for one night in 50 yuan" in this small town. He hoped that the renovated Double Corridor would not only change the environment, but also need to be improved in terms of infrastructure facilities and service capabilities, so as to keep the hearts of tourists.

Call of Duty 17 Chaos Action Raiders Chaos Action Disk Password Cracking

What is the password of Call of Duty 17 Chaos Operation Disk? I believe many players will get stuck when playing this task of Chaos Action. After all, the process involved in this task is a bit long, and the password is random, so the password that most players look for on the Internet is basically unusable, because this password is their own password, and if you want to crack it, you have to look at your own process.

Clue acquisition mode

1. Encrypted message: choose to capture Kassin after catching him at the level of "no escape".

2. Digital radio station: on the basement table where the informant is held in the "high wall spy" checkpoint.

3. Newspapers: There is an optional challenge in the "red light and green light" level "Collect photos", which requires taking 6 map photos, and this clue will be automatically obtained when 3 map photos are taken.

Solving puzzles

The password information obtained by each player is different, so it can only be based on the numerical values and laws of his own game.

The first is the encrypted message, as shown below. My numbers are: 59, 70,? 、? 65、78、71、82、79、86。

Take out the red numbers as 59,? , 65, 71, 79, it is concluded that each number is N+2, N+4, N+6, N+8, so the red unknown number is 61.

Then take out the blue number as 70,? , 78, 82, 86, the interval of each value is 4, so the blue unknown value is 74. In this way, the password of the encrypted message can be obtained as "6174". The specific tutorial is as follows

Evidence acquisition:

In the task: green light and red light

[Encrypted message] In the task: nowhere to escape

[Digital Broadcasting] In Task: The Stone of the Lost Wall

Look at [encrypted message] first. My number is 78 41? ? ? ? 88 47 93 53 98 61

Put 78 in red text? ? 88 93 98 list can be seen that the mathematical law is +5 in turn, and red is deduced? ? It’s 83.

Put 41 in blue text? ? List 47 53 61 It can be seen that the mathematical law is N+2, N+4, N+6 (some people start from N+1), and blue is deduced. ? It’s 43.

The deduced numbers are 8343 and 8343, which point to Oakland in my tape evidence.

The red part of [newspaper] is Raleigh, and the number of Raleigh in [digital broadcast] is 7996, and the tape evidence 8343 derived from [encrypted message] is Auckland.

The digital password entered during decryption is 7996, while the city password is Auckland.

Therefore, the input password is the red letter of newspaper corresponding to the password of digital broadcasting, while the city password is the password of digital broadcasting derived from the mathematical law in encrypted message.

Subissue of Cell: Discovery of Enterobacteria Degrading Uric Acid

The original Singularity Cake Singularity Network is included in the collection # 62 Intestinal Microbes # 57 Cardiovascular Diseases.

* For medical professionals only.

It’s summer. Have you arranged all the beer skewers and juice in little seafood? Singularity cake every time I watch this kind of food electronic mustard tuber, the barrage will float past the "gout package!" Hmm … Everyone has a high awareness of health!

Foods such as beer, seafood and animal offal are rich in purines, and some purines, such as xanthine, hypoxanthine and uric acid, the final metabolites of purines, are considered as uremic toxins (wastes that patients with impaired renal function cannot metabolize normally) [1], which are related to some symptoms of chronic kidney disease [2].

It is also a typical symptom of gout that uric acid can not be metabolized normally, resulting in the formation of pro-inflammatory crystals deposited on joints. However, some studies have found that uric acid concentration within the solubility range can also promote atherosclerosis through AMPK pathway-mediated inflammation [3]. Isn’t the kidney working hard enough? However, intestinal microbes will shoot!

Recently, the research team at the University of Wisconsin-Madison found that intestinal microorganisms can affect the progression of atherosclerosis by regulating the level of uric acid circulation. They identified intestinal microorganisms that use purines such as uric acid as carbon and energy sources in anaerobic environment, as well as gene clusters encoding key steps of purine degradation. This is a potential new way for intestinal microorganisms to affect health, which may provide a new way for treating gout or preventing cardiovascular diseases. The research results were published in Cell, Host and Microorganism [4].

Previous studies have shown that the atherosclerosis burden of more than 100 inbred mice in the Hybrid Mouse Diversity Group (HMDP) is very different, and the composition of intestinal flora is also obviously different [5,6].

In this study, the researchers selected four kinds of HMDP, two of which showed obvious atherosclerosis (experimental group) and two of which showed almost no signs of disease (control group), transplanted their flora to aseptic APOE knockout mice (which could spontaneously form hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis) and fed them with a diet supplemented with 0.2% cholesterol for 8 weeks.

Compared with the control group, the pathological changes in the experimental group are obvious. Traditional cardiovascular risk factors such as body weight and cholesterol intake, as well as intestinal microbial metabolites lipopolysaccharide, trimethylamine -N- oxide (TMAO) and short-chain fatty acids can’t explain this difference.

Macrogenome analysis identified 1649 functional features and 52 bacterial taxonomic features, and correlation analysis identified several bacterial functions related to atherosclerosis load, including those related to purine production and transformation. Among the 682 metabolites in mouse plasma, purine metabolites, including xanthine, xanthine nucleoside, inosine and uric acid, are positively correlated with the size of atherosclerotic plaque.

Correlation between xanthine, xanthine nucleoside, uric acid and inosine and atherosclerotic plaque size

In the cohort of human volunteers, there is a significant positive correlation between coronary artery calcification (CAC) score and uric acid level, and several taxonomic units in Clostridium have a negative correlation with uric acid level, which may affect uric acid level.

Compared with conventional mice, most purine levels in cecum/feces of sterile mice decreased, and only uric acid and allantoin levels increased. Similarly, the level of uric acid in plasma of sterile mice also increased significantly. Therefore, intestinal microorganisms may be able to regulate the level of purine in intestine and whole body. This strengthened the researchers’ determination to isolate purine-degrading bacteria in the intestine.

Intestine is the key organ of purine homeostasis. Dietary purine is absorbed in the intestine, and intestinal microorganisms produce and recover purine needed for its anabolism. About 30% uric acid produced by body metabolism will be secreted into the intestine.

The researchers tried to enrich anaerobic bacteria on the culture medium with uric acid as the main source of carbon and energy by using human feces samples, and obtained several bacteria from Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, which were identified as Enterocloster bolteae and Escherichia coli by 16S rRNA sequencing. The model strain ATCC BAA-613 of Enterocloster bolteae was cultured in a medium supplemented with 12mg uric acid. 10ml of strain culture degraded 49.6μmol of substrate within 24 hours, and produced 106.9μmol of acetate.

Based on the success of this small-scale attempt, the researchers expanded the search for intestinal microorganisms with purine degradation ability, and identified 34 kinds of bacteria from 6 phyla by the same method. The purine utilization ability of different bacteria is different. For example, Escherichia coli MS200-1 and I-11 have stronger uric acid utilization ability than Escherichia coli K12. Allantoin can support the growth of Enterocloster bolteae and Escherichia coli, but it cannot support the growth of Clostridium difficile or Edwardsiella tarda.

Representatives of 34 kinds of bacteria

By comparing the conserved chromosome regions of these intestinal microorganisms, the researchers found that five genes (dpaL, hydA, ssnA, ygeY and xdhD) were conserved. Compared with the sterile mice with non-purine degrading flora and the sterile mice with conserved gene deletion mutant flora, the plasma uric acid level of the mice with wild-type strains was significantly lower. There was a negative correlation between the level of purine-related metabolites in cecum and the abundance of five genes in APOE knockout sterile mice. This shows that these genes and their encoded intestinal bacteria have the ability to regulate uric acid homeostasis in vivo.

Identification of conserved genes

Generally speaking, this study found a previously neglected factor affecting uric acid circulation level-intestinal microorganisms and the corresponding key genes. In the future, more research is needed to answer the effects of aerobic and anaerobic purine consumption pathways on purine and intestinal microecology, as well as atherosclerosis and other health conditions.

See also the marriage scam! Married men hired "mother" to cheat 320,000 female white-collar workers and were prosecuted!

Fake identities, fake academic qualifications, fake house purchase contracts, and even a fake mother … Xu Kai, who only has junior high school education, took great pains to defraud money and put on a "good show". Recently, the court sentenced the defendant Xu Kai to five years’ imprisonment for fraud after prosecution by the Procuratorate of Suzhou Industrial Park, Jiangsu Province.

Conceal one’s married status

Pick up unmarried white-collar women

Xu Kai, who was in his early thirties, went to school in Suqian, Jiangsu Province, and graduated from junior high school. He went to the society early, got married in his hometown and had a pair of children. After marriage, his wife and two children lived in their hometown, and Xu Kai worked alone in Suzhou.

On the day before the Tomb-Sweeping Day holiday in 2018, Xu Kai and his younger brother drove back to their hometown together, and took two people with them for a ride. Xu Kai and one of the girls, Wen Qiu, had a good talk on the road and exchanged WeChat messages. During their vacation in their hometown, they also kept chatting. During the chat, Xu Kai claimed to be single, graduated from a famous university in Shanghai and worked in the financial department of a company. After the holiday, the two met again and returned to Suzhou.

A few days later, Wen Qiu went back to her hometown because her mother was going to have an operation, and Xu Kai accompanied her back to her hometown. Xu Kai stayed in the hotel for three days in order not to let his wife find out. After returning to Suzhou this time, Wen Qiu’s affection for Xu Kai doubled, and he felt that his own conditions were good and he was still an understanding man. After graduating from Wenqiu University, she has a well-paid job, and she has been eager for a sincere relationship.

Since then, the contact between the two has become more and more frequent. A few days later, Xu Kai made an appointment with Wen Qiu to do steaming and try to make physical contact. See Wen Qiu didn’t resist, Xu Kai simply asked her to stay in a hotel at night, and they established a relationship that night. A few days later, Xu Kai withdrew her rent and moved to Wen Qiu’s community, and they formally lived together.

Xu Kai said frankly that she never told Wen Qiu about her married status. At first, she wanted to have sex with her, and then she wanted to cheat her.

In order to gain trust

I actually found a fake mother to assist.

In May 2018, Xu Kai made an idea about Wen Qiu’s money. He found someone to forge a purchase deposit invoice for a property, and told Wen Qiu that he was ready to buy a house in Suzhou, and he was still short of 50,000 yuan. Wen Qiu went to the bank and loan platform without saying anything, and called Xu Kai with his own savings.

From May to July of the same year, Xu Kai borrowed money from Wenqiu for many reasons, such as buying investment and wealth management products, his cousin doing loan business, his parents having a hard life at home, and preparing to start their own business.

Wen Qiu felt that her boyfriend used money for legitimate purposes and never refused. At the same time, she also expressed her desire to marry Xu Kai, hoping to arrange for her parents to meet as soon as possible.

In order to stabilize Wen Qiu and continue to cheat her out of money, Xu Kai agreed to Wen Qiu’s request to meet her parents. Remembering that in the circle of friends, he often watched a netizen advertise for actors, Xu Kai contacted him and hoped that he would find a woman in her fifties to play his mother.

According to Xu Kai’s request, the fake mother met Wen Qiu in the house where they lived together. After taking some housework, she left on the pretext of taking care of Xu Kai’s sister’s children. Xu Kai registered another WeChat to chat with Wen Qiu as a fake mother.

One day, the "fake mother" anxiously told Wen Qiu that Xu Kai’s grandfather was ill and could not contact others, hoping that he would go home quickly. Wen Qiu quickly conveyed the words of "fake mother" to Xu Kai. Xu Kai said, grandpa has passed away, I hope to borrow some money and go to my hometown to do grandpa’s funeral. Wen Qiu borrowed 20,000 yuan from a friend to Xu Kai.

Later, Xu Kai went to his hometown to meet Wen Qiu’s mother and fake mother, and the two sides formally settled the marriage. Wen Qiu also trusted her boyfriend more.

In October of the same year, Xu Kai told Wen Qiu that the house he had bought was to be renovated, and he had to pay the renovation deposit to the property, plus the renovation of the floor tiles of the house, which required a total of more than 40,000 yuan. Wen Qiu thought that Xu Kai’s house would be her own house in the future, and it was normal for her to need money for decoration. She borrowed 30,000 yuan from the boss of her company, and added her own savings to make up 40,000 yuan for Xu Kai.

Before the Spring Festival in 2019, Wen Qiu received a salary and year-end award of more than 100,000 yuan. Xu Kai took this opportunity to cheat Wen Qiu in the name of opening a supermarket in his hometown. The money was basically squandered by Xu Kai. In order to support her boyfriend’s "career", the year-end bonus that Wen Qiu just got soon ran out.

In February 2019, Xu Kai and Wen Qiu said that the factory in their hometown was going to be demolished (he had previously made up with Wen Qiu that his parents were doing wood business). He wanted to get the demolition money early and needed to invite people to dinner, so he borrowed 10,000 yuan from Wen Qiu. The "fake mother" also sent WeChat and Wen Qiu to say that this kind of thing needs to spend more money, get the demolition money earlier, and Wen Qiu transferred another 10,000 yuan to Xu Kai.

Capture the cheating object in the marriage information

In April 2019, Xu Kai saw a marriage advertisement on the convenience information column in his hometown, so he contacted the other party with the WeChat of "Fake Mom" and said that he would introduce his son to her. After the other party agreed, Xu Kai added the other party with his own WeChat. In the long run, they also established a relationship, and Xu Kai began to borrow money from his new girlfriend Zhou Tong.

In the same month, Wen Qiu invited her friend Peng Ling to dinner at home. Peng Ling talked about raising leeches, which aroused Xu Kai’s interest. After that, Xu Kai went to Peng Ling’s beauty salon to do several weight-loss projects, but none of them paid. When Peng Ling mentioned that she had to pay for the project, Xu Kai introduced herself to the other party as a financial project, which could help her increase the credit card limit. Peng Ling gave Xu Kai her bank card account number and password.

In the process of associating with Xu Kai, Zhou Tong heard Xu Kai say that she was doing business at home, and all the watches she wore were several hundred thousand yuan, but she found that Xu Kai didn’t have to go to work. In addition, there is always a person called "Wen Zong" on Xu Kai’s mobile phone, and Xu Kai always goes to a place where no one is there to pick it up. Zhou Tong also found this person in Xu Kai’s car’s driving license and WeChat, which made her suspicious.

Zhou Tong went to ask Xu Kai if he had a wife, but Xu Kai said he was not married and was going to break up with Wen Qiu. Seeing this situation, Jay Chou doesn’t intend to fall in love with Xu Kai again. She just wants her money back, but Xu Kai never pays it back, and she is slowly alienated from her.

Be exposed

Thousands of routines can’t get around "money"

After discovering that she was cheated, Zhou Tong added Wen Qiu’s WeChat and saw many photos of Xu Kai in the circle of friends. She told Wen Qiu about her experience. Wen Qiu asked Xu Kai in her hometown and found that he was married and had children. Later, Wen Qiu met Xu Kai’s real mother and checked the purchase invoices provided by Xu Kai, and found that they were all forged. In addition, Wen Qiu has repeatedly received dunning information from a number of online lending platforms, and found that Xu Kai has borrowed and cashed out more than 100,000 yuan from a number of lending platforms in his own name.

It turns out that Xu Kai’s association with himself is a complete scam. Wen Qiu was disheartened. She called Peng Ling to remind her that Xu Kai might be a liar. Peng Ling immediately searched for two credit cards that she had given to Xu Kai to ask him to raise the amount for herself, and found that the amount had been brushed up by Xu Kai. Peng Ling reported the loss of her credit card to the police. The police arrested Xu Kai on August 21 of the same year after putting on record for investigation.

The prosecutor found that Xu Kai defrauded Wen Qiu of more than 320,000 yuan by fraudulent means for the purpose of illegal possession, such as buying a house, opening a shop, and his grandfather’s death. The amount was relatively large, and he should be investigated for criminal responsibility for fraud. Therefore, he filed a public prosecution with the court on December 31, 2019.

After sorting out many similar cases, the prosecutor found that the usual routine of swindlers is to package themselves as single and rich aspiring young people, but the essence is to cast a wide net and cheat more money. Either they need money to buy a house, or they are ill and in urgent need of money. They can’t get around the word "money" all the time. When they cheat money, they will try their best to gain the trust of each other and make false promises. The prosecutor reminded: Try to verify the identity of the other party in communication, and beware of stepping into the trap carefully designed by criminals, leaving both people and money empty.

Is the frequent quality problems of Lexus behind the shutdown of CT200h the main reason?

  As early as many years ago, in order to make up for the shortcomings of Toyota’s high-end brand Lexus in compact models, CT200h was introduced to enhance its overall competitiveness. However, according to the sales data, from the launch of the CT200h to the first quarter of this year, the global cumulative sales volume is only about 267,000 vehicles. In this big market of China, the sales volume of the CT200h accounts for less than 10% of the total sales volume of Lexus. It can be seen that this entry-level car, which has been launched for nearly six years, has not brought surprises to Lexus.

  ▲ The sales volume is not satisfactory, and the production of CT200h is discontinued.

  Perhaps the sales volume is not satisfactory. According to reliable sources, the CT200h will face production suspension, and Alain Uyrrenhoven, president of Lexus Europe, revealed that "the CT200h will be replaced by a hybrid small SUV". Of course, if we study why the CT200h stopped production according to the meaning of Lexus, we may only think that the SUV market is overheated and the cars are not popular, but is this really the case?

  As we all know, compared with British finidi and Acura, Lexus, as a member of Japanese luxury Three Musketeers, has performed strongly in the market with its excellent quality and good service. Therefore, when the compact car CT200h, which started at more than 200,000 yuan, was launched, many people began to worry that it would more or less destroy the long-standing good image of Lexus.

  ▲ Hidden quality hazards affect the brand image, or become the main reason for the shutdown of CT200h.

  Because it is a hybrid of oil and electricity, CT200h is excellent in fuel economy, and its bold design also shows the charm of Lexus. However, in details, CT200h really proves the truth of "a penny gets a share". First of all, in terms of materials, CT200h’s materials are very general, the suspension is hard and the comfort is average.

  A criticism that is particularly worth mentioning is the sound insulation effect of CT200h h. It has been reported by the media that when the speed reaches above 80km/h, the noise inside the CT200h is as high as 79dB(70-90 dB is noisy and nerve cells are destroyed), which has seriously interfered with the driver’s driving and the safety hazard is very obvious.

  In addition, a friend of Xiaobian’s car owner said that the CT200h he was driving had many problems, especially the abnormal brake noise. When Xiaobian searched online for the abnormal brake noise of CT200h, there was almost a buzz on the Internet. What’s more, some car owners couldn’t wait to show the abnormal brake noise in less than three or four days, which was really a headache.

  Therefore, Xiao Bian guessed that the CT200h had the idea of stopping production because of its poor sound insulation effect and abnormal sound, which was not conducive to the establishment of a good brand image.

  ▲ frequent and numerous recalls, but ineffective and negative?

  Originally, I wanted to fill the gap in the compact car market. Clinker CT200h, an entry-level model, did not give force, did not bring surprises to Lexus, and more or less brought some panic. So, is it the best choice to stop production of CT200h to reverse Gankun and re-establish the brand image?

  In fact, in view of the defects of vehicles, car companies will start a recall plan to improve the problems of vehicles. Although Lexus has not implemented a recall for abnormal noise, Lexus has started a recall plan before because of the hidden dangers of fuel leakage and airbags, involving 37,423 vehicles, including CT200h.

  The number of recalls is amazing, but this is not the problem of this recall. Xiaobian asked the owner’s friend. When he told him that his CT200h was going to be recalled for inspection and maintenance, he said he didn’t know. When he called the local 4S shop, the staff of the 4S shop admitted that his vehicle needed to be recalled. In other words, even if Lexus started the recall plan, it did not take the initiative to contact the owner for inspection and maintenance, but the owner reflected that the 4S shop admitted it. Does such a poor and negative service attitude really come from Lexus?

  Coincidentally, another incident deserves our attention. A car owner once made a complaint on the car complaint network. He said that his newly bought 2014 lexus ES300 had just driven for 200 kilometers when the ABS fault light called the police, and the brake pedal didn’t respond at all. He was asked to replace the ABS controller assembly after going to the 4S shop for inspection.

  The description of this problem coincides with the reason stated in Lexus’ recall regulations in April this year. The recall was as follows: due to the manufacturing reasons of a specific supplier, the oil pressure required for braking anti-lock braking system (ABS) and body stability control system (VSC) may not be provided normally, which may affect the driving stability of the vehicle and have potential safety hazards, and a total of 15,322 lexus ES200, ES250 and RX200t vehicles were recalled.

  Putting the owner’s complaint together with the Lexus recall, we found that the owner’s ES300 also had the problems mentioned in the recall, but the ES300 was not within the scope of the recall!

  Summary:Now, due to various quality problems, the CT200h is already in water under the bridge, and it has to stop production on the pretext of "good SUV market prospects". Apart from the tragic product CT200h, the frequent recalls of Lexus this year and the large number of them are really unsightly, but the negative and ineffective behaviors such as not notifying the owners in time and incomplete recalls are the facts that it is difficult to cover up when CT200h stops production.

2020 opening gift package: how to get to the stock market and property market when the RRR is lowered? Look here

  Zhongxin Jingwei client January 1 ST (Wei Wei Xue Yufei) After many days of market expectation, on the first day of 2020, "Yang Ma" sent a gift package for RRR reduction. On the afternoon of the 1st, the People’s Bank of China announced that in order to support the development of the real economy and reduce the actual cost of social financing, it decided to reduce the deposit reserve ratio of financial institutions by 0.5 percentage point on January 6th, 2020 (excluding finance companies, financial leasing companies and auto financing companies). The industry believes that after the RRR cut, it will have certain benefits for the stock market, bond market and property market.

  Release long-term funds of about 800 billion yuan.

  The central bank said that the RRR cut was a comprehensive RRR cut, reflecting countercyclical adjustment, releasing long-term funds of about 800 billion yuan, effectively increasing the stable source of funds for financial institutions to support the real economy, reducing the capital cost of financial institutions to support the real economy and directly supporting the real economy.

  In this comprehensive RRR cut, small and medium-sized banks, such as city commercial banks, rural commercial banks serving counties, rural cooperative banks, rural credit cooperatives and rural banks, which operate only in provincial administrative areas, have obtained long-term funds of more than 120 billion yuan, which is conducive to strengthening the financial strength of small and medium-sized banks that are based in the local area and return to their original sources to serve small and micro private enterprises. At the same time, the RRR cut will reduce the capital cost of banks by about 15 billion yuan per year, which can reduce the actual cost of social financing through bank transmission, especially the financing cost of small and micro enterprises and private enterprises.

  Looking back on 2019, China has implemented three RRR cuts.

  The first round was a comprehensive RRR cut in January 2019. On January 15 and 25, respectively, the deposit reserve ratio of financial institutions was lowered by 0.5 percentage points, and about 1.5 trillion yuan was released.

  The second round is targeted cuts to required reserve ratios, which was put into practice three times in May, June and July of that year, respectively. For small and medium-sized banks that focus on local areas and serve counties, a lower preferential deposit reserve ratio was implemented, and about 280 billion yuan of long-term funds were released.

  The third round is the comprehensive RRR reduction and targeted cuts to required reserve ratios. On September 16, the deposit reserve ratio of financial institutions was lowered by 0.5 percentage point, and the deposit reserve ratio of city commercial banks operating only in provincial administrative areas was lowered by 1 percentage point, which was implemented twice on October 15 and November 15, with each reduction of 0.5 percentage point. The RRR cut released long-term funds of about 900 billion yuan.

  Does continuous RRR cuts mean that the orientation of prudent monetary policy has changed? The central bank stressed that the RRR cut is a hedge with the cash before the Spring Festival, and the total amount of liquidity in the banking system will remain basically stable, flexible and moderate, not flooded, which shows that the scientific and steady control of the counter-cyclical adjustment of monetary policy has not changed.

  Why did you choose to lower the RRR in January?

  In fact, this RRR cut is expected. On December 23, 2019, The Politburo Standing Committee (PSC) and Li Keqiang, Premier of the State Council of the People’s Republic of China of the Communist Party of China made an inspection tour in Chengdu, saying that they would further study and take various measures such as lowering the RRR and targeted cuts to required reserve ratios, refinancing and rediscounting to reduce the real interest rate and comprehensive financing cost.

  "At that time, the market generally expected that the RRR would be lowered in the near future." Dong Ximiao, chief researcher of Xinwang Bank and distinguished researcher of the National Finance and Development Laboratory, analyzed that the fiscal expenditure increased near the end of the year, and the total amount of liquidity in the banking system was at a high level. On December 31, the central bank announced that it would not carry out reverse repurchase operations, which laid the groundwork for the RRR cut in January.

  Wen Bin, chief researcher of China Minsheng Bank, pointed out that in view of the fact that 600 billion yuan of reverse repurchase was due in January, the liquidity was under pressure due to factors such as overlapping tax payment, the issuance of special local government bonds and the cash demand during the Spring Festival.

  Huatai Securities Research Report analyzed that the liquidity gap in January was large, which required the central bank to lower the RRR for hedging.

  First of all, from a seasonal point of view, the cash outflow before the Spring Festival is large. The Spring Festival is on January 27th, 2020, slightly earlier than in previous years. Judging from the months of previous Spring Festival, the outflow of M0 is large, which causes great liquidity pressure on the banking system and requires the central bank to hedge liquidity.

  Second, the issuance of local special bonds in the New Year is just around the corner, and liquidity hedging is also needed. On November 27th, the Ministry of Finance issued some new special debt limits of 1 trillion yuan in 2020 ahead of schedule. On December 20th, the Ministry of Finance issued a new quota of 62.4 billion yuan for some special bonds in Sichuan Province in 2020 ahead of schedule. The first batch of bonds will be issued nationwide from January 2nd, 2020, and other provinces are expected to follow suit. This means that the issuance of local special bonds in 2020 will be earlier than that in 2019, and the issuance scale may be larger, which will cause liquidity pressure on commercial banks.

  Third, January is the traditional peak of tax payment. From 2017 to 2019, the month-on-month increase of fiscal deposits in January was 490.8 billion yuan, 951.8 billion yuan and 688.6 billion yuan respectively, and the tax payment scale was large. In addition, because the Spring Festival in 2020 is in January, the date of tax return may be moved forward, and tax payment is expected to bring a lot of funds back.

  Fourth, the maturity of the open market in January was large. Since the central bank put a number of 14-day reverse repurchase in the open market last week, a number of funds will be concentrated in early January, and a total of 550 billion yuan of reverse repurchase will expire in the first three days of January, which will also increase the liquidity pressure in early January.

  Fifth, the LPR will continue to be lowered through RRR reduction. In December, the LPR did not continue to be adjusted, but under the requirement of "reducing social financing costs" of the Central Economic Work Conference, the central bank’s motivation to guide the decline of LPR remained undiminished. It may also be a more appropriate way to reduce the debt-side cost of banks by lowering the RRR, so as to guide the LPR to continue to be lowered in January.

  Dong Ximiao believes that before the Spring Festival, the scale of cash investment in the banking system will exceed usual. For banks, "early investment will benefit early". At the beginning of the year, credit investment is often more, and there is a large demand for funds. This comprehensive RRR cut will help to ensure the supply of funds for financial institutions, maintain a reasonable and sufficient liquidity before the holiday, promote the smooth operation of the financial market, and help banks to do various financial services before and after the Spring Festival.

  Wen Bin said that on the one hand, the 800 billion yuan of funds released by RRR cuts can meet the above liquidity needs, on the other hand, releasing low-cost long-term funds is conducive to reducing the capital cost of banks and guiding banks to reduce the financing cost of the real economy. It is expected that the quotation of the new phase of LPR will decrease slightly on January 20th, with 1-year LPR of 4.1% and 5-year LPR of 4.75%.

  What is the impact of stock and debt exchange market?

  In fact, after the Prime Minister proposed on December 23, 2019 that "various measures such as RRR reduction and targeted cuts to required reserve ratios, refinancing and rediscount will be further studied", financial markets including the stock market and bond market have responded in the following days, and many people in the industry have overdrawn in advance. However, after the RRR cut, the financial market performance is still worth looking forward to.

  Wen Bin said that the RRR cut is in line with market expectations, which will help boost investors’ market confidence and bring benefits to the stock market. At the same time, the overall downgrade will further play the countercyclical adjustment role of monetary policy tools, stabilize the macro-economy that is gradually stabilizing at present, and improve the performance of listed companies.

  "On the New Year’s Day and the first day of the new year, the central bank announced a reduction of the deposit reserve ratio by 0.5 percentage points, which has formed a major positive for the economy and the capital market." Yang Delong, chief economist of Qianhai Open Source Fund, analyzed that before the holiday, the A-share market continued to grow slowly, and the market successfully stood at 3,000 points. However, before the holiday, the market increased in volume, especially the brokerage stocks regarded as the weather vane continued to attack, which established this round of cross-year market. After the holiday, the market will undoubtedly continue its upward trend and launch a spring offensive. According to experience, spring is often an important time window for the market to do more. This RRR cut is undoubtedly a catalyst for the market and will further promote the sharp rebound of the A-share market.

  Yang Delong believes that the A-share market will continue the trend of slow growth in 2020. On the basis of standing firm at 3,000 points, the Shanghai Composite Index will further expand its space, with a rising space of about 20%, which is basically equivalent to the 22% rise of the Shanghai Composite Index in 2019. From the perspective of investment opportunities, there will still be more investment opportunities in 2020, and the three major directions of consumption, brokerage and technology are still my optimistic directions. Insisting on value investment and being a good shareholder of the company is still the most important investment strategy to seize the market in 2020.

  Zhang Yulong, chief strategist of CITIC Jiantou, further pointed out that this RRR cut is very helpful to the market, and A shares will continue to rise substantially, with "cycle+finance" such as real estate, building materials, construction, securities firms and banks as the most dominant varieties.

  In addition to benefiting the stock market, it also brings certain benefits to the bond market. Ming Ming, deputy director of CITIC Securities Research Institute, told Zhongxin Jingwei client that the increased liquidity of the central bank is also beneficial to the preference of banking institutions to allocate bonds.

  It should be noted that some analysts believe that the scale of debt-based issuance has declined, and the rate of return may be adjusted upward after the RRR cut.

  Pacific Securities analyzed in the research report that the logic of short interest rate bonds still exists: the economy continues to stabilize within a quarter, inflation runs at a high level, and trade frictions ease, so the yield of interest rate bonds may face upward pressure again after the RRR cut. According to statistics, the scale of debt-based issuance has declined in December, only about 20 billion in the first half of the year, and the allocation demand may come to an end. Moreover, the funds allocated in the early stage may also be sold for profit, and the upward adjustment of the rate of return may be increased.

  In addition, will the RRR cut affect the exchange rate? According to the previous calculation of the Sino-Singapore Jingwei client, in 2019, the central parity of RMB against the US dollar was adjusted by 1,130 basis points, with an adjustment range of about 1.65% (the central parity of RMB against the US dollar in the last trading day of 2018 was 6.8632), which was 3.4 percentage points narrower than that in 2018.

  In this regard, it is clearly pointed out that the exchange rate is relatively indirectly affected by the RRR cut. Recently, Sino-US trade negotiations are generally improving, so the exchange rate will remain stable as a whole.

  The property market may appear "Xiaoyangchun"

  Zhang Dawei, chief analyst of Zhongyuan Real Estate, told Zhongxin Jingwei client that historically, as long as there is a RRR cut, it will definitely be good for the property market. The RRR cut can ease the financial pressure of real estate enterprises, and property buyers can also get a relatively low mortgage interest rates.

  However, Zhang Dawei said that the impact of RRR cuts on housing enterprises of different sizes is also different. The RRR cut is a good thing for large real estate enterprises, but it has little impact on the financing of small and medium-sized housing enterprises. It is expected that the follow-up market will still be "big fish eat small fish".

  Yan Yuejin, research director of the think tank center of Yiju Research Institute, said that from the current situation, the financial environment of the real estate market is expected to be further relaxed, especially in the fields of real estate development loans and personal mortgage loans, which will help drive more bank loans into the market and have a more positive impact on the property market.

  Yan Yuejin said: "The liquidity in the market after the RRR cut has increased, which is expected to further reduce the LPR (loan market quotation rate), and the mortgage interest rate may be lower, thus reducing the cost of buying a house, and also making the work of converting the pricing method of floating loans in March 2020 better."

  Regarding the impact of market transactions, Zhang Dawei believes that it will slow down the downward trend of the real estate market. From the point of view of time, there was also a RRR cut in January 2019. Due to the RRR cut and the blowout of talent policies in various places, there was a round of "Xiaoyangchun" in the property market that lasted for 2-3 months. After that, the policy tightened and the market cooled down. After the RRR cut, it will increase the possibility of "Xiaoyangchun" in the property market in 2020.

  Yan Yuejin also believes that the RRR cut will stimulate market transactions. After the RRR cut, housing enterprises and intermediaries will take the RRR cut as a marketing breakthrough, and the consultation volume and actual transaction situation of housing sales will rise, and house prices will easily rebound, so relevant departments need to pay attention.

  However, the general trend of "stability-oriented" property market has not changed. Zhang Dawei said that the purpose of the central bank’s RRR cut is clear, that is, to ensure the liquidity of the market, mainly the liquidity of small and micro enterprises, and accurately inject water into the real economy. The purpose is definitely not the property market, and the central government’s determination to curb the rise in housing prices will not change.

  Expert: It is expected that the RRR will be lowered twice this year.

  Will the RRR cut continue this year? Wen Bin believes that the overall RRR cut will adhere to the stable monetary policy and replace short-term and high-cost funds by releasing low-cost long-term funds, so as to keep the market liquidity reasonable and sufficient and the liquidity structure more optimized. In the next stage, there is still room and necessity for comprehensive RRR reduction. Combined with targeted cuts to required reserve ratios, it is expected that there will be room for 2-3 RRR reductions.

  Dong Ximiao predicts that there will be another one or two times this year, and next time it may be targeted cuts to required reserve ratios. However, more will push down the loan interest rate through the path of MLF-LPR, thus reducing the financing cost of the real economy.

  How much room is there for monetary policy this year? In this regard, Dong Ximiao pointed out that although the RRR cut was a comprehensive RRR cut, the central bank stressed that the RRR cut was a hedge with the cash delivery before the Spring Festival, and the orientation of prudent monetary policy remained unchanged. It is predicted that in 2020, China’s monetary policy will maintain a stable tone, increase adjustment efforts, maintain flexible and moderate liquidity, and find a balance among multiple goals such as steady growth, structural adjustment and risk prevention.

       Truffles are usually collected from November to March of the following year, and truffle hounds are trained at the same time. Giovanni’s trick in training truffle hounds is to first make the puppy sensitive to the smell of truffles, then establish the puppy’s conditioned reflex between truffles and rewards, and finally bury the truffles underground so that the puppy can learn to dig them out by himself. The whole training process will last about one month.
