　　CCTV News:The latest data shows that in the first half of this year, China’s cross-border e-commerce exports exceeded 600 billion yuan, up more than 40% year-on-year, and the total scale of cross-border e-commerce increased tenfold in five years. During the first-line investigation, the reporter found that small cross-border orders with an average of 20 to 30 dollars per order are becoming a new force for China’s foreign trade growth, and small orders have become a big global business.

　　As soon as 5 pm, the staff of the e-commerce department of this enterprise in Ningbo began to get busy. In less than half an hour, the salesman Zhang Zheying received more than 20 cross-border orders.

　　Although the single amount is not high, five salesmen can take about 500 orders a night. When it comes to promotion, they can take five or six thousand orders a night at most. In the first half of the year, the sales of cross-border e-commerce of enterprises increased by 65%.

　　The person in charge of the enterprise told the reporter that since last year, the traditional foreign trade business has encountered problems such as rising costs and high freight rates. The increasing small orders of cross-border e-commerce have eased some of the pressure of cost growth.

　　In the production workshop that the enterprise has just renovated, the reporter found that there are two devices on the production line of this water purifier that look different from other products.

　　To meet the demand and seize small foreign trade orders has become the main direction for many foreign trade enterprises in Ningbo to expand their markets. However, it is an unavoidable problem for foreign trade enterprises that one case is hard to find and the freight rate is high.

　　In the Ningbo Cross-border E-commerce Association, the most difficult thing in the office meeting every morning is to coordinate the shipping space.

　　LCL and LCL alleviate the problem of small orders going out. In addition, the local commerce department is also coordinating foreign trade enterprises to form alliances, and adopting the way of "chartering a boat to the sea" to meet the demand of fast delivery of cross-border e-commerce.

The fourth is to gather less. Try not to go to crowded places with poor air circulation, stay away from people with fever or cough symptoms, reduce gathering activities and maintain a safe social distance.

The fifth is to maintain environmental sanitation. Daily household cleaning is the main task, and preventive disinfection is carried out when necessary; Kitchen utensils, countertops, tableware, etc. should be cleaned and disinfected in time; Regularly clean and disinfect the sanitary ware and floor in the toilet. When the surface is dirty or moldy, it should be cleaned and disinfected in time; Cover the toilet before flushing and keep the trap water sealed.

Sixth, actively vaccinate COVID-19 vaccine. The whole population in Covid-19 is susceptible, and the elderly are the most vulnerable group, with a high proportion of basic diseases. They are the high-risk group that will cause severe illness after being infected with Covid-19. Vaccination with COVID-19 vaccine is always one of the most effective preventive measures. It is suggested that the elderly who meet the vaccination conditions should be vaccinated as soon as possible, and the booster immunization should be completed as soon as possible after three months of complete vaccination.

Seventh, develop a healthy lifestyle. Strengthen physical exercise, adhere to the law of work and rest, ensure adequate sleep, maintain a healthy mentality, eat healthily, quit smoking and limit alcohol, maintain a healthy mentality, and do not believe in rumors or spread rumors.

Eighth, do a good job in health monitoring. Make good use of nucleic acid detection and antigen self-test. If you have symptoms such as fever and dry cough, don’t go to work or school with illness, don’t take part in social activities, don’t take public transportation, wear a mask, and go to the hospital fever clinic for investigation in time to reduce the risk of family transmission and cooperate with the implementation of various prevention and control measures.

Ten academic papers (9 SCI and 1 new journal with high starting point) were published in 4 years, including 6 first authors and 4 co-authors. The total impact factor of SCI papers was about 93.

Liu Ying, a Ph.D. student at University of Science and Technology Beijing, has recently attracted a lot of attention due to this brilliant academic achievement.

At present, Liu Ying is studying in the Italian Institute of Technology, following Professor Liberato Manna, a big bull in chemistry and deputy editor of the internationally renowned journal Nano Letter. Liberato was ranked 24th in the ranking list of the top 100 cited chemists in the world published by Thomson Reuters from 2000 to 2010.

In March this year, Liu Ying will return to China and take part in the defense of doctoral thesis. Now he has received an offer from a key university in central China to directly hire a researcher. It can be said that Liu Ying has been ahead of her peers in the starting link of scientific research, so how did she do it?

Liu Ying is in Europe (Norway)

I would rather reread than change my major.

In September 2012, Liu Ying became a freshman at University of Science and Technology Beijing, majoring in industrial design.

When she first entered school, Liu Ying’s major courses were sketching and color, but she found that she didn’t like drawing very much. So, she came up with the idea of changing her major and put it into practice. In the first half of the freshman year, Liu Ying submitted an application to the school to transfer to the major of materials science and engineering, and finally passed the interview.

In September 2013, Liu Ying became a freshman again, majoring in materials science and engineering. Because of the great difference between the two subjects, she can only accept the price of changing her major-demotion.

However, Liu Ying is satisfied with his new major. Later facts also proved that she did the right thing in this multiple-choice question. During the undergraduate course, Liu Ying achieved excellent results and won many honors such as "People’s Scholarship" and "Three Good Students". In 2017, she obtained the qualification of insurance research in our school.

After changing majors, Liu Ying’s study is like a duck to water. In the first year of master’s degree, she applied for the qualification of master’s degree and doctoral degree.

Formal scientific research work has just begun. Liu Ying studied under Xia Zhiguo, a professor from the Department of Materials Physics and Chemistry, University of Science and Technology Beijing, mainly engaged in the synthesis and luminescent properties of inorganic perovskite nanocrystals.

She was shocked when she first saw with the naked eye that the synthesized nanocrystals showed bright green light. "The luminous efficiency of general materials is not so high."

Later, as the research on perovskite continued to heat up, Liu Ying began to carry out research on related luminescence fields around perovskite materials. In 2018, as co-first author, Liu Ying published an article entitled "Synergistic Preparation of High Stability/High Efficiency Perovskite Nanocrystals by Water Post-treatment Strategy" in Chemistry of Materials.

This is the first research paper related to perovskite published by Liu Ying. In 2018, Liu Ying published two papers as the first author and one as a co-author.

Two articles a year, writing quickly and correcting slowly is the trick.

From 2019 to 2021, Liu Ying published two papers every year.

Among them, Liu Ying’s most satisfactory paper was published in Angewante Chemie International Edition in 2020, which proposed a design idea of rare earth-doped lead-free perovskite nanocrystals, expanding its luminescent application.

Write quickly and change slowly, which is the paper writing skill summarized by Liu Ying. This article took about two weeks from the beginning of writing to the completion of the first draft, and it took about three to four weeks for the tutor to guide the revision of the paper. From the preliminary preparation to the final publication, it took about a year.

Liu Ying is very grateful to his tutor Xia Zhiguo and his research group. The tutor is very strict about the progress of scientific research, and the members of the research group need to submit weekly reports to the tutor to report their own experiments and work progress. The tutor asked the students to be good at finding and summarizing problems while ensuring the experimental time.

"A large number of experiments have accumulated to build a reasonable scientific framework for the paper, and then select appropriate journals to contribute according to the research field." In Liu Ying’s eyes, it is not difficult to send papers. Her tutor has always stressed that don’t send papers for the sake of sending papers, do more experiments, think and summarize more. In such an atmosphere, the quality and quantity of papers will not be bad.

"We are studying luminescent materials, and there are many scientific problems to be further discussed." Xia Zhiguo believes that publishing a paper is like selling your own research results, and only good results can get big sales.

He also asked students to go out more, participate in academic exchanges and integrate into the academic community as soon as possible. For example, Liu Ying’s article "Preparation of Perovskite Nanocrystals with High Stability/High Efficiency by Water Post-treatment Strategy" mentioned above was presented as an excellent poster paper at the Seventh National Academic Conference on Luminescence Properties of Doped Nanomaterials.

So, why did Liu Ying choose to study in Italy? It turns out that Liu Ying had previously cooperated with Liberato, and the research of Liberato’s research group is in line with her research on lead-free perovskite nanocrystals in China. So, she contacted Liberato, received an invitation letter, and later applied for a scholarship from the China government.

In February, 2021, Liu Ying officially went to Italy and began his one-year study and life.

I won’t stay in Beijing after graduation, but I will continue to do scientific research.

In China, Liu Ying will arrive at the laboratory before 8 am on weekdays, start work and leave the laboratory at 22 pm; In Italy, according to the working schedule of the research group, Liu Ying’s daily working hours were shortened by four hours. In her words, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do. If it is too early or too late, there will be no bus."

Compared with the pace of work and life in China, Liu Ying obviously felt much slower in this year. In a strange country and a brand-new environment, there will be some problems and many maladjustments. In the experiment, from synthesis to testing and calculation, the progress of each stage is very slow. What Liu Ying can do is to learn how to make rational use of time and plan his study life while slowly adapting.

Liu Ying is doing experiments in an Italian laboratory.

Talking about work and experiments, Liu Ying can always explain; When it comes to achievements and life, Liu Ying is a little shy.

Although Liu Ying rushed very hard in the initial stage of scientific research, she ran on the next way, hoping to advance at a constant speed. "I shouldn’t stay in Beijing after graduation. The work and life here are a little stressful for me." Liu Ying, who is about to return to China, is ready for her graduation. "I will settle in a second-tier city and continue my research in colleges and universities."

"I respect and firmly believe that my students’ choices are correct." As the tutor Xia Zhiguo said, "I hope students can continue to do scientific research and do what they like."

The comedy sci-fi movie Crazy Alien, directed by Ning Hao and starring super comedies Cass Bo Huang and Shen Teng, was officially released today. As the third part of the "Crazy Series" directed by Ning Hao, the film tells a cosmic absurd comedy story that happened in China. Shen Teng, Bo Huang, is pleasantly surprised, playing wits with the alien "Chica" skillfully, and the "grassroots counterattack" between the mysterious alien visitors and the ordinary people is expected. After the preview of the film was released, many netizens said, "I actually missed this immortal combination before", "Bo Huang and Shen Tengguang stood there and I wanted to laugh" and "I can’t see this lineup in the Spring Festival Evening now, but Bo Huang and Shen Teng must see it". Today, the film will return to the big screen to meet the audience, and an absurd and crazy journey of joy is about to appear. Let’s taste this "cosmic" hilarious story again and laugh together!

Bo Huang and Shen Teng join hands with aliens to go on a crazy trip. The "Circus" style poster is mysterious and eye-catching

The film surprises a poster released today, which depicts the crazy life of Bo Huang Shen Teng in a lively and grotesque circus style. Three striking colors, red, yellow and blue, are selected to collide in the color matching of the poster, which highlights the joyful and interesting overall style of the film. However, the two protagonists, Bo Huang and Shen Teng, sit side by side with scars on their faces and bandages on their heads. The seemingly stable mental state hides the "cry" that is about to break out, and the striking words on the poster are "2024 is tired, destroy it!" Echoing each other, we can’t help wondering what kind of crazy journey this pair of he is my brother has gone through. In addition, an alien’s hand is stretched out in the upper left corner of the poster, and the index finger seems to want to touch something, which seems to imply that the experiences of the two protagonists are related to the control of aliens. Many details revealed in the cheerful and contrasting poster attract the audience to go into the cinema to find out.

The film, starring Bo Huang and Shen Teng, can be called the "ceiling" of the "cosmic" comedy Cass. The "chemical reaction" produced by the combination of he is my brother played by the two people in the film makes netizens sigh that "I want to laugh when I stand there". In addition, the film also has a group of comedy comedians to join in the surprise, and Xú Zhēng specially starred in the foreign object "Chica" in the film; The appearance of Yu Hewei, Lei Jiayin and other national familiar actors makes people shine at the moment. The film was released in the Spring Festival in 2019, and became the mainland box office champion of comedy movies in 2019 with a box office of 2.213 billion. With the approach of 2025, the re-release of the film brings a happy atmosphere of "celebrating the New Year in advance" to the audience. After the release of the movie’s release, the audience sighed on social platforms, such as "I am looking forward to the release, and I feel that I will celebrate the New Year ahead of schedule when I see Bo Huang Shen Teng", "I missed the previous release, so I must make up this movie ticket this time" and "I want to brush it again", hoping to enter the theater again to witness the surprise combination of the two comedy masters. "Cosmic-level" super-card companies gathered together to stage a "Cosmic-level" joke suitable for decompression at the end of the year and open a comedy feast suitable for the whole family to watch movies!

Local elements and sci-fi themes surprise and collide, and the mental state is leading, making a year-end declaration for the current audience.

2024 is a special year. Looking back at the end of the year, it seems that history has come back once again. Many netizens exclaimed on social platforms that "I think it’s terrible, I seem to have traveled back to 2019" and "all this is too similar to 2019". The various details in the film are in one-to-one correspondence with the current reality. Shen Teng’s classic line "Destroy, Hurry, Tired" has once become a "high-frequency vocabulary" in recent years, and many viewers lamented that "the mental state of this film is really advanced, directly five years ahead of me" and "the original real prophet has already appeared". The film was released again at the end of 2024, and the advanced mental state of Bo Huang and Shen Teng, the two brothers, was also in line with the life creed that young people dare to say and go crazy, and became the "strongest excuse" for the declaration of contemporary young people at the end of the year.

As the third work of "Crazy Series" directed by Ning Hao, the film tells a hilarious sci-fi story with China local temperament. Geng Hao (Bo Huang) and Dafei (Shen Teng), brothers of "Niu Ma", who are struggling for their lives, accidentally meet Chica, a higher creature in the Milky Way, and encounter a series of incredible "mysterious forces", and stage a ridiculous journey. Geng Hao, played by Bo Huang, lives hard and insists on inheriting the intangible monkey drama, but it is despised. Dafei, played by Shen Teng, dreams of making a fortune, but has repeatedly fallen into the investment trap. The film also incorporates many traditional folk elements in China: intangible monkey drama, Chinese medicine massage, traditional opera, etc., which makes people feel strong Chinese local characteristics. Through the comedy expression of grounding gas, the film starts from the life of the little characters and blends into the unique Chinese fireworks. Under the surprise collision between the local and sci-fi, I hope to bring the audience a new experience of watching sci-fi movies.

The film Crazy Alien is directed by Ning Hao, starring Bo Huang and Shen Teng, and produced by Huanxi Media Group Co., Ltd., Bad Monkey Film and Beijing Light Film Co., Ltd. The film was released today, and an absurd and crazy hilarious journey was staged. Meet the audience and bid farewell to this year happily!

　　At noon on June 5th, 2020, chengdu research base of giant panda (hereinafter referred to as Panda Base) giant pandas "Yuanrun" and "Ellie" each gave birth to a female panda cub. The two cubs are very healthy and energetic, and they can both eat breast milk independently.

　　At 12: 32 noon, under the care of experts and breeders, the giant panda "Yuanrun" successfully gave birth to a female panda cub, with a birth weight of 172.6 grams and a very healthy body. "Yuanrun", who was upgraded to a mother, showed strong motherhood and quickly held her cub in her arms after birth.

　　At 13: 06 on the same day, the giant panda "Ellie" also successfully gave birth to a female panda cub, and the cub’s birth weight reached 219 grams, which was a "little fat man". After the cub was born, the mother "Ellie" immediately held it in her arms.

　　Experts from the Panda Base said: At present, the two giant panda babies and their mothers are in good health, and the breast milk supply is also very adequate. Among them, Ellie’s baby is the heaviest newborn panda cub since the panda base was recorded, reaching 219 grams, which is very energetic. She ate 6 grams of breast milk at birth, much higher than the average newborn panda baby’s food intake. (CCTV reporter Chen Kai)

The newsroom in America is undergoing important changes. Mergers, closures and layoffs have affected various media organizations, especially newspapers. These trends are changing the media landscape in the United States.

According to the data provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Census Bureau and other sources, we have prepared the following 10 charts for you to show the employment situation of newsrooms in the United States today.

Reality 1:

Between 2008 and 2019,

Employment in journalism in the United States has dropped by 23%.

In 2008, there were about 114,000 employees in American journalism, including journalists, editors, photographers and cameramen, who were distributed in newspapers, radio, television, cable television and other information services. According to the data of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, by 2019, this number has dropped to about 88,000.

Most of the decline in the total number of employees in journalism occurred in the first half of this period. Between 2008 and 2014, the number of employees in journalism dropped to 90,000. After 2014, the number of journalists tends to be stable, with little change.

Reality 2:

Between 2008 and 2019,

The number of employees in the editorial department of American newspapers has decreased by about half.

The long-term decline in the number of employees in journalism is mainly driven by one kind of media: newspapers. From 2008 to 2019, the number of employees in newspaper editorial department decreased by 51%, from about 71,000 to 35,000.

The number of newsroom employees in the other four news production industries—television, broadcasting, cable services and digital media—remained relatively stable, even slightly increasing after 2014. From 2008 to 2014, the average number of employees of these media was stable at 43,000, and by 2019, it increased to about 53,000.

More than 9,000 jobs in the non-newspaper industry almost offset the loss of about 11,000 employees in the newspaper editorial department after 2014. However, this is far from enough to offset the total loss of about 3.6 jobs in newspapers during the whole period of 2008-2019.

The sharp decline in the number of people employed in the newspaper industry means that newspapers now account for a much smaller proportion of the total number of people employed in the news industry than in the past. In 2008, newspaper employees accounted for 62% of all news employees. By 2019, this proportion has dropped to 40%.

Reality 3:

The decline in the number of journalists in the United States,

It is the biggest blow to practitioners in the middle of their careers.

According to the US Census Bureau, between 2008 and 2018, the number of full-time news employees (aged between 35 and 54) in the middle of their careers decreased by 42%. During this period, the number of journalists aged 55 and over increased by 31%. Of course, this is not enough to offset the loss of the middle-aged career. The number of younger newsroom employees (18 to 34 years old) has remained relatively stable, and there has been no significant change in the past ten years.

Reality 4:

In recent years, layoffs have been hitting the American newspaper industry.

According to the Pew Research Center’s analysis of relevant news reports, about a quarter of American newspapers with an average circulation of more than 50,000 on Sunday experienced layoffs in 2018. Some newspapers have experienced more than one round of layoffs in a year. In the daily newspaper of layoffs in 2018, 31% experienced more than one round of layoffs. This figure was only 17% in 2017.

Although news reports don’t always provide the exact number of employees in the newsroom who were fired, we can still draw some broad conclusions from the available data: in 2018, 62% of newspapers laid off more than 10 people, exceeding 42% in 2017.

Reality 5:

In 2018,

The wave of layoffs has had an impact on medium-sized market newspapers.

Compared with newspapers with lower or higher circulation, medium-sized market newspapers (newspapers with an average circulation of 100,000 to 250,000 on Sunday) are more likely to lay off employees in 2018. 36% of medium-sized market newspapers have laid off employees, while 18% of small-sized market newspapers (with a circulation of 50,000 to 100,000) and 29% of large-sized market newspapers (more than 250,000) have laid off employees. From 2017 to 2018, the proportion of layoffs in medium-sized market newspapers increased, while the proportion of layoffs in newspapers with lower circulation and higher circulation decreased.

Reality 6:

1/5 of the employees in journalism.

Live in new york, Los Angeles or Washington, D.C..

The financial, entertainment and political capital of the United States is also the location of most news employees in the country. According to the data of the US Census Bureau from 2013 to 2017, 22% of news employees live in these cities, compared with 13% of the total working population in the United States.

New york has long been known as the "Media Capital of the World", where 12% of news employees live, accounting for the highest proportion. This ratio is more than twice that of Los Angeles (5%) and Washington, D.C. (5%). However, this data does not seem to have undergone drastic changes. According to the data of the US Census Bureau, during the period from 2005 to 2009, the proportion of journalists living in these three metropolitan areas was roughly the same (20%).

Reality 7:

Compared with the overall working population in the United States,

Journalists are more likely to work in the northeast.

About a quarter (24%) of American journalism employees work in the Northeast. Of the total working population in the United States, this proportion only accounts for 18%. The employment of online news organizations is particularly concentrated in the northeast (41%), and another 28% people live in the west.

Reality 8:

Compared with the overall working population in the United States,

Journalists are more diverse.

About three quarters (76%) of journalists are non-Hispanic white. In all occupations and industries, the overall proportion is 64%. Employees in journalism are more likely to be men (61%), and the overall proportion of workers in all industries is 53%. Taking race, nationality and gender into consideration, almost half (47%) of the employees in journalism are non-Hispanic white men, and this proportion is about one-third (34%) of the staff in all industries.

However, young journalists show greater racial, ethnic and gender diversity. About 40% (38%) of journalists aged 18 to 29 are non-Hispanic whites; Among employees aged 30 to 49, this proportion is 46%; Among employees aged 50 and above, this proportion is 56%. However, in every age group, the diversity of newsroom staff is still lower than the overall situation of various industries in the United States.

Reality 9:

A journalist with a college degree.

Earn less than other employees with college education.

Nearly 80% (79%) of journalism employees have a university degree, while less than 40% (37%) of the total working population in the United States have graduated. However, compared with employees with university degrees in other industries, journalists with university degrees earn less. The average annual salary of the former is $61,000, while the latter is only $52,000.

Reality 10:

A journalist with a college degree.

More likely to get a degree in arts and humanities.

About 3/4(77%) college-educated journalism employees have obtained undergraduate degrees in arts and humanities, while only 23% of the total working population in the United States.

About 30% of college-educated journalists have a degree in journalism. Other common de majors include communication (13%), English language and literature (11%) and mass media (7%). About 23% of journalists with university degrees majored in subjects other than arts and humanities.
