Guangxi version of the high imitation "Great Wall" became popular and the person in charge of the controversial project responded.

  Guangxi Baziling Great Wall VS Beijing Badaling Great Wall

  Built in imitation of the Badaling Great Wall in Beijing, the Baziling Great Wall in Luchuan County, Yulin City, Guangxi Province quickly became popular and became a popular "punch-in" point for local people. On the 23rd, the reporter went to Luchuan County to visit this building which was called the Guangxi version of the "Great Wall" by netizens.

  Starting from Luchuan County, it takes about an hour to drive to the Guiling Valley rural tourist area located in Baziling, Gao Qing Village, Shapo Town, Luchuan County, Yulin City. The gate of the scenic spot is a "Little Great Wall" built after the Badaling Great Wall, and the words "The Great Wall for Sightseeing in the Guling Valley" are impressive.

  Climb up the stone steps and come to the highest "beacon tower" of the "Baziling Great Wall", surrounded by mountains and sometimes misty clouds. From afar, you can see Xiexianzhang, the highest mountain in Luchuan County. As can be seen from the aerial picture, the "Baziling Great Wall" is shaped like a "eight" and extends to both sides.

  It was named "Baziling Great Wall" because it was built in Baziling.

  Ruan Guansheng, the person in charge of Guilinggu Rural Tourism Zone, introduced that the "Baziling Great Wall" project was built under the guidance of Luchuan County Party Committee and Government, and efforts were made to create a new bright spot in the combination of industrial poverty alleviation and rural tourism. The project is planned to build 2000 meters. At present, the first phase of the project has been completed 450 meters, and the trial operation began during the National Day holiday this year.

  Ruan Guansheng introduced that the "Baziling Great Wall" is actually a sightseeing corridor in the tourist area, named after it was built on the local Baziling. Before the project construction, it has been approved by Luchuan County Environmental Protection Bureau.

  Ruan Guansheng said that the "Baziling Great Wall" was built on the ridge, which was originally a forest fire zone with sparse vegetation. Mountain fires often occur in the local area. After the "Baziling Great Wall" is repaired, Gao Qing Village and Bei ‘an Village on both sides will be separated to play the role of isolation and fire prevention. Considering the problem of environmental protection, the cement sand used in the construction of the "Baziling Great Wall" is all carried up the mountain by horses.

  Quickly became popular and controversial.

  Ruan Guansheng introduced that the "Baziling Great Wall" began trial operation during the National Day holiday this year, which attracted many tourists to visit and visit, and the small holiday received about 35,000 tourists. "At that time, tourists were full and meals were in short supply."

  The reporter noticed that on the network platform, the topic of "high imitation of the Great Wall" has attracted the attention of many netizens. Netizens have different views on the "high imitation of the Great Wall". Some people think it is a "knockoff", which has no historical connotation and is meaningless. Some people think that it is good to climb the Great Wall in Guangxi.

  On the 23rd, there was an endless stream of tourists visiting the "Baziling Sightseeing Great Wall". People have taken photos at the "Haohanpo" of the "Baziling Great Wall".

  Xie Xiaoqin, a tourist from Yulin City, said that it is not surprising that the "Baziling Sightseeing Great Wall" attracted attention because it imitated the famous Badaling Great Wall. But it doesn’t have the cultural background of Badaling Great Wall, and it doesn’t tap the local characteristics. It’s hard to say how long it will be popular.

  Ms. Luo, a tourist from Guangzhou, has been to the Badaling Great Wall in Beijing. She thinks that the "Baziling Great Wall" can’t be compared with the Badaling Great Wall, but for local people, the construction of the "Little Great Wall" can bring new leisure tourism projects, which is also good.

  The project leader responds to the dispute.

  Ruan Guansheng doesn’t care about these disputes. Ruan Guansheng said that the Great Wall of Wan Li is a famous tourist attraction and a place that Chinese yearns for. When she was in her seventies, my mother urged me to take her to the Badaling Great Wall in Beijing. However, it is a long way from Guangxi to Beijing and the cost is high. Many people, especially the elderly, rarely have the opportunity to experience climbing the Great Wall.

  Ruan Guansheng introduced that Gao Qing Village is one of the second batch of key rural tourism villages in China. The rural tourism project of Guilinggu, located in Baziling, Gao Qing Village, covers an area of more than 130 hectares, and is planted with economic trees such as camellia oleifera, orange peel and camellia chrysantha, with an original ecological forest landscape stretching for dozens of miles, forming a new development path of "characteristic industry+characteristic tourism".

  Over the years, Guilinggu Rural Tourism Zone has absorbed 72 poor households in the village to participate in rural tourism poverty alleviation industry, and implemented the model of villagers’ cooperatives+tourism enterprises+poor households to develop and expand tourism, providing a platform for poor households to get rid of poverty and increase their income.

  Ruan Guansheng is a native of Gao Qing village. He worked in architecture in his early years and has some experience. He thought that Baziling Mountain was very suitable for building a sightseeing corridor, so he came up with the idea of building a condensed version of the Great Wall. "One is to satisfy the villagers’ desire to climb the Great Wall, and the other is to increase the attractions for rural tourism and promote tourism development, thus helping poor households to increase their income."

  Ruan Guansheng said that Luchuan County has a good geographical location. In September this year, the Yulin-Zhanjiang Expressway in Guangxi was fully opened to traffic, making it very convenient for Guangdong tourists to travel to Luchuan County by car. In the future, the "Baziling Great Wall" will attract more tourists from Guangdong Province and even all over the country to experience it. "We are accelerating the improvement of tourism infrastructure and preparing for receiving more tourists."

festival

February 26th, 2021 is the Lantern Festival, which is near the weekend. During the holidays, people and vehicles flow heavily. In order to ensure the safe and smooth road traffic during the holidays and create a good road traffic safety environment for celebrating the festival, the Traffic Management Bureau of Jilin Provincial Public Security Department issued the "Lantern Festival Two Announcements and One Prompt" in Changchun City, asking the majority of traffic participants to reasonably choose travel time, travel routes and travel modes, avoid travel peaks and easy-to-block sections, drive safely and travel safely.

Weather conditions during the Lantern Festival

During the Lantern Festival, expressways are not free. According to the "Implementation Plan for Exempting Small Bus Tolls for Major Holidays", the policy of free passage of 7-seat (including 7-seat) small bus expressways will be implemented for four national statutory holidays: Spring Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Labor Day and National Day.

Prediction of traffic flow during Lantern Festival

It is estimated that the population flow in the Lantern Festival in 2021 is significantly lower than that in previous years, and there is a strong uncertainty in traffic flow. Before the holiday, the traffic flow will be relatively dispersed, and after the holiday, it will be more concentrated, and the road traffic flow in the bustling business district will increase greatly.

Traffic safety tips for Lantern Festival

1. During the Lantern Festival, family reunions with relatives and friends and short trips increase. Drivers are requested to travel at the wrong peak as much as possible. In case of traffic congestion, please obey the traffic police’s command, do not force traffic jams, and do not fight for roads.

2. Friends get together to celebrate the Lantern Festival and drink more. Drinking alcohol will lead to slow response and slow action, and the driver’s ability to control the vehicle will decrease. For the safety of you and others, please remember "drink without driving, drive without drinking!"

3. Take part in the Lantern Festival folk celebrations. Never drive or take overcrowded minivans or passenger vehicles. Never take tractors, low-speed trucks or illegally operate "black cars" to travel.

4. When driving minivans and passenger vehicles through icy wading roads, please keep driving at a constant speed, keep a distance from the vehicle in front, and do not brake suddenly to avoid side slip.

5. There are many people in tourist attractions, so drivers should pay attention to civility and courtesy, obey traffic signals, don’t make a sharp turn at intersections or narrow sections without traffic lights, and pay attention to slowing down when driving through crosswalks or intersections to avoid unnecessary traffic injuries.

6. During the festival, the traffic volume is heavy. If there is a traffic accident, please call the police in time. If there are no casualties and minor traffic accidents, you should leave the scene immediately after taking photos, and drive to an open place to negotiate or call the police for handling, so as to prevent traffic congestion or secondary accidents; If there are casualties, protect the scene, rescue them in time, and call the police immediately. Don’t be lucky enough to escape.

Expressway driving tips

First, prevent the car from being in bad condition

Before leaving the vehicle, check the vehicle and keep it in good condition.

Second, prevent improper overtaking of passing cars

Try to avoid overtaking, and when passing, the qualified party should take the initiative to stop for courtesy; At night, the lights are used to signal to ensure that they meet slowly under safe conditions.

Third, prevent turning too fast

When turning, you should slow down the speed ahead of time, hold the steering wheel steady and tap it slowly. When the line of sight is not good, turn left to the right as far as possible to expand the driving sight.

Four, prevent braking too fast

Concentrate on driving, try to use predictive braking, and make good use of the engine’s drag to slow down to avoid emergency braking.

The Lantern Festival will remain unchanged.

If you encounter an emergency on the expressway, please call the 24-hour alarm number in time: 0431-12122.

Data speak: Where does China’s economic stability come from?

  Recently, China’s economic indicators from January to July were released one after another, which aroused a lot of concern.

  As the largest trading partner of more than 120 countries and regions in the world, the next trend of China’s economy affects the pulse of the global economy.

  In the past ten years, the air routes of 11 international hub ports along the coast of China have increased by 60%. The maritime service network connects the major ports of more than 100 countries and regions, making it the country with the highest maritime connectivity in the world.

  At present, the century-old changes and the century-old epidemic are intertwined, and countries around the world are deeply impacted. How should we understand the challenges that China’s economy is experiencing and the expectations of future growth?

  And how to find the right coordinates to evaluate China’s economy?

  Master Tan worked out an account with the authority.

01

Which epidemic prevention and control mode has the lowest cost?

A research team of the National Bureau of Statistics has made a model calculation on the relationship between epidemic prevention and control policies, macroeconomic policies and economic loss rate in various countries since the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic. The results show that:

  From 2020 to the first half of 2022, the total economic loss rate of China was only 2.3% under strict prevention and control.

  However, the economic loss rate under tight prevention and control (such as Japan and South Korea), passive prevention and control (such as Germany and France) and passive prevention and control (such as the United States and Britain) reached 3.9%, 5.5% and 5.9% respectively.

  At the same time, after excluding the impact of macroeconomic policies, China’s economic loss rate dropped to.floor level.

  The international media pointed out in an article entitled "China’s policy of" dynamic clearing "of COVID-19 infection contains lessons for other countries" that China’s anti-epidemic policy of "dynamic clearing" has achieved the goal that every country sought two years ago: low mortality and as little economic chaos as possible.

  China’s epidemic prevention model has been achieved.Give consideration to anti-epidemic and production developmentThe effect.

  A typical example is that in the first half of this year, China’s export data became the bright spot of growth, while the economic growth expectations of major countries in the world were declining.

  02  

  Why has China become a global lifeline?

  This is one of the perspectives of epidemic prevention cost accounting. China insists on "dynamic zero clearing", which reduces the manpower, material resources and economic and social costs as much as possible, in exchange for overall economic and social stability.

  Behind China’s low economic loss rate is the stability and toughness of China’s supply chain and industrial chain under the policy of "dynamic clearing".

  In the past two years, repeated outbreaks have made this more prominent.

  Recently, Tan Zhu chatted with Yan Ci, the chief representative of China, the global container shipping logistics giant Maersk Group.

  The year when Maersk invested in the first fully automated storage project in China was 2020, when the epidemic had just begun.

  Maersk has a reason to dare to cast this project against the wind.

  At the China International Fair for Trade in Services in 2020, Yanci praised the company for maintaining normal operation and uninterrupted supply chain with the help of China government.

  During the epidemic, China fully guaranteed the production of enterprises with a stable soft and hard environment. The goods manufactured in China are continuously transported to the world through logistics companies like Maersk.

  According to the statistics of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development,During the epidemic, China’s share of global merchandise exports increased from 13% in 2019 to 15% by the end of 2021..

  Among them, China’s share in global electronic products exports increased from 38% in 2019 to 42% in 2021, and its share in textile exports increased from 32% to 34%.

  China’s increased export share has become the "lifeline" for countries such as the United States and Britain to maintain their operations.

  In 2020, when the epidemic just broke out, 83% of the imported masks in the United States were made in China, two-thirds of the protective clothing came from China, and 90% of the imported box refrigerators specially used for storing vaccines came from China, showing an explosive growth.

  The epidemic prevention and control in China has stabilized the industrial chain and supply chain, making China a ballast stone to meet the needs of global epidemic prevention, production and life.

  Stability in the face of wind and rain comes from the accumulation of a sword in ten years.The "Decoding Decade" broadcast by the main station is the best example.

Despite the epidemic, the number of China-Europe trains that are still running smoothly in the Eurasian continent has exploded in this decade, reaching nearly 900 times that of the opening year. Now, there are an average of 42 trains running between China and more than 190 European cities every day.

In the complicated global epidemic situation, stable policies and environment are more attractive, and the keen international capital flow is very convincing.

A few days ago, the Ministry of Commerce announced that from January to July this year, the actual amount of foreign capital used nationwide was 798.33 billion yuan, an increase of 17.3% on a comparable basis.

Investment is confidence.

  03  

  Who has more confidence in China?

  You can look at the four sources of investment in China highlighted by the Ministry of Commerce:

  The United States, which has failed to prevent and control the epidemic, has increased its investment in China by 36.3%, and the rest of the countries are also allies that the United States is trying to win over.

  You know, for a long time in the past, a focus of American diplomacy was to build small courtyards and high walls on the industrial chain with these countries as the axis.

  But what is it?as the trend of the times indicatesMultinational enterprises have given their choices by voting with their feet.

  According to the 2022 White Paper on American Enterprises in China released by the American Chamber of Commerce in China this year, more than two-thirds of the member companies continue to list China as the primary market.

  Starbucks, a Seattle-based coffee chain, is committed to opening 6,000 stores in China before the end of the year.

  Germany, in the first half of this year, set a record high for its investment in China in the first half of this year since 2000. Among the industries in which Germany increased its investment in China, there was its manufacturing "crown jewel" — — Automobile industry.

  This year, German Volkswagen, which has been producing and operating in China for nearly 40 years, set the first subsidiary of its software company CARIAD in China — — This is also CARIAD’s first overseas subsidiary.

  Nearly 40 years ago, the presence of Volkswagen once planted the seeds of growth for China automobile industry.

  Today, in the eyes of the public, the establishment of a new factory in China, which ranks first in the world in the new energy automobile industry, represents the hope of the public.

  Bringing the "leader" of China’s top industries to China means more precious confidence besides economic considerations.

  From a global perspective, the United States, Japan, South Korea and Germany are the economic leaders in America, Asia-Pacific and Europe respectively, and they are also the weathervanes in their regions. Their choices are very convincing.

  In fact, the Americans themselves have long forgotten: China is one of the countries with the highest total rate of return on foreign direct investment in the United States.

  According to the U.S. Department of Economic Analysis, from 2000 to 2020, the average rate of return on American direct investment in China is14.7%, much higher than the US overseas direct investment.9.7%Yield.

  On the contrary, if American companies reduce their investment in China by half, it will cause very direct damage to the American economy, and the one-time loss of gross domestic product (GDP) will be as high as 500 billion US dollars.

  Even during the COVID-19 epidemic, the overall rate of return of foreign investment in China is still rising. In 2021, foreign investors can still get a rate of return of over 6% when they invest in China.

  From a longer time dimension, the rate of return on investment in China in 2020 and 2021 remains at a stable level compared with before.

  Under the epidemic, it remains stable, which is very telling.

  Pan Yuanyuan, an international investment expert at China Academy of Social Sciences, told Tan Zhu:

  The first characteristic of foreign direct investment is the long time period; Second, foreign-funded enterprises will also participate in management, bringing their own technology, experience and channels to China, and combining them with China’s resources for transformation. Therefore, unlike short-term speculative investment in the securities market, direct investment pays more attention to the fundamentals of the economy and is also more alert to risks and uncertainties.

  In other words, the most important thing for foreign direct investment is the stability of a country’s economic expectations.

  04

  Where does the stability of China’s economic expectations come from?

  Recently, the International Monetary Fund also increased the RMB weight in the Special Drawing Rights (SDR) from 10.92% in 2016 to 12.28%.

  This figure is the confidence of the international community in the stability of China’s economy and financial market, and also the recognition of effective epidemic prevention and control in China.

  In 2020, under the epidemic crisis, countries’ economic policies to deal with the impact are completely different.

  Countries represented by the United States, passive prevention and control, but in order to get quick results in the short term, have adopted unlimited quantitative easing policies.

  From the second quarter of 2020 to the first quarter of 2021, the year-on-year growth rate of M2 in the United States remained above 20%, and the average growth rate of M2 after the epidemic was about 10 percentage points faster than that before the epidemic.

  Moreover, the United States has repeatedly introduced large-scale economic rescue bills. In 2021, the fiscal deficit ratio reached 12.4%, even higher than the historical high of 9.8% during the financial crisis in 2009.

  The "strong medicine" seems to be effective quickly, but it has led to bad consequences.

  During the epidemic, the United States not only ranked among the countries involved in the survey with an economic loss rate of 6.5% (excluding the impact of macroeconomic policies). The more direct performance is that the inflation level in the United States has reached a 41-year high.

Inflation in the United States not only makes American enterprises and consumers bear high production and living costs, but also transfers the crisis to the whole world.

  According to the assessment of the Bank for International Settlements, the annual inflation rate of nearly 60% developed economies exceeds 5%, the highest level since the late 1980s. The inflation rate of more than 50% developing countries has also exceeded 7%.

  The rapid interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve in response to inflation has expanded the debt scale of emerging market countries. According to the International Monetary Fund, there are currently 38 developing countries facing debt risks.

  Under the impact of global inflation and the Federal Reserve’s interest rate hike, Sri Lanka was forced to declare bankruptcy due to "insolvency" and became the first new market country to default on its sovereign debt in 2022.

  Compared with the strong stimulus measures of the United States, during the epidemic, China’s macroeconomic policies were always guided at a steady pace. In the first half of this year, the national consumer price index (CPI) rose by 1.7% year-on-year, far below the level of European and American countries.

  Because of this, the US dollar index has risen by more than 11% this year, and the depreciation of the euro, pound and yen against the US dollar is between 10% and 17%. Compared with these major global currencies, the performance of RMB is relatively stable — — It depreciated by about 5.8% against the US dollar.

  As Lu Jinyong, director of the university of international business and economics Foreign Direct Investment Research Center, said, China still gives people an expectation and hope — — A growth expectation, profit expectation and better and better hope.

  One of the articles in the international media commenting on China’s economy was titled "China’s economy has hidden power".

  What are the hidden forces of China’s economy?

  It is to plan development and safety as a whole, and it is a prominent problem to deal with economic development with systematic concept.

  It is the wind and waves that are high, but it is as tough as a rock, and it is slow and steady, and it has its own sky.

Sudden death of 19-year-old female college students in Nanjing dormitory: relatives questioned the cause of death as a mystery

Sudden death in a sophomore girl's dormitory in Nanjing: no injuries on the body surface, excluding electric shock, and the police ruled out the cause of homicide as a mystery

Sudden death of a sophomore girl’s dormitory in Nanjing: no injuries on the body surface, accused of sudden death, police ruled out homicide, relatives questioned the cause of death.

  Sudden death in the dormitory of sophomores: On November 19th, 19-year-old Zhu Ge, a sophomores of Southeast University in Nanjing Jiangning Jiulonghu Campus, was found lying on the ground in the dormitory, looking pale. About half an hour later, the 120 doctors who arrived found that Zhu Ge had no signs of life.

  The reporter learned from the police that the public security organs have ruled out homicide for Zhu Ge’s sudden death. On the 23rd, family members received a notice from the police that Zhu Ge’s autopsy report concluded that he had died suddenly.

Sudden death in a sophomore girl's dormitory in Nanjing: no injuries on the body surface, excluding electric shock, and the police ruled out the cause of homicide as a mystery

Sudden death of a sophomore girl’s dormitory in Nanjing: no physical injuries. Police ruled out homicide of relatives and questioned the cause of death as a mystery.

  Stay alone in the dormitory

  Zhu Ge, a native of Suqian, Jiangsu Province, is a sophomore majoring in financial engineering at Southeast University and the only daughter in her family.

  In the eyes of good friend A Tong (a pseudonym), Zhu Ge is very cheerful, very kind to people and never gets angry. The night before Zhu Ge’s death, she also used WeChat to ask Zhu Ge to watch the movie My Girlhood, but she couldn’t make it because Zhu Ge had to prepare for the exam next week.

  "Zhu Ge’s accident can’t be suicide." A Tong speculated to reporters.

  On November 19th, it was Thursday. At about 7: 30 in the morning, her dormitory, Room 8D132, Meiyuan, and the other three roommates all went to class because they studied other majors. On the morning of the first or second class, Zhu Ge had no class and stayed alone in the dormitory.

  The accounting class she had planned to attend was in the third or fourth period, but she didn’t appear in the classroom. "Teachers in universities generally don’t explain the situation to counselors when they find that students don’t come." The roommate explained this.

  Roommate Chen Lele was the first person to find out the situation. After class at 11: 25 in the morning, she came back from the canteen to buy a meal, took out the key and opened the door. The door was half open, but it couldn’t be opened. It turned out that Zhu Ge was leaning on the door. Surveillance video shows that it was 11: 39 in the morning.

  "I stretched my head and looked in. Her lips were white and her eyes were closed. I quickly knocked on the door of the dormitory next door. No one was there, and then I found my aunt." Chen Lele spoke in a low voice.

  "After 120 arrived, the doctor found that Zhu Ge had no signs of life." As he spoke, his roommates began to cry. Roommates don’t understand that girls who are usually humorous and cheerful will suddenly leave them.

  Harmonious relationship with classmates, the cause of death is a mystery.

  According to the roommate’s memory, the aunt of the boarding house mentioned to them that there were still unfinished cakes and a cup of porridge on Zhu Ge’s table.

  When Zhu Ge died, he was dressed in military green, and his clothes were flat, as usual. However, there is a hot kettle lying on the ground next to Zhu Ge.

  That morning, Zhu Ge was going to wash her hair, and when she left, her roommate Chen Lele also asked. However, the switches in the bathroom are all button-type, not socket-type, so people are unlikely to touch the switch chip. This ruled out the possibility of electric shock.

  "The monitoring at the entrance of the dormitory shows that Zhu Ge went out at 8: 30 and returned to the dormitory in less than 10 minutes." Zhu Ge’s brother-in-law Lin Qingbai told reporters.

  A roommate said that aunt Zhu Ge suspected that she might go out and buy breakfast after washing her hair.

  Lin Qingbai, Zhu Ge’s cousin, said, "When the police arrived at the scene, Zhu Ge was unharmed. However, the police found that Zhu Ge had put a piece of cake on his desk and seemed to have bitten two times. "

  For more details, Lin Qingbai said that he is not very clear. When he arrived, the police had blocked the scene and Zhu Ge’s body was sent to the funeral home.

Li Tiaotiao, who helped you jump the advertisement, received a lawyer’s letter. Is this reasonable?

Original bad review jun bad review

Li tiaotiao was sent a letter.

But I’m not surprised because it’s only a matter of time.

Introduced by friends who are not familiar with "Li Tiaotiao", Li Tiaotiao is an Android App that can help you skip open-screen advertisements.

We have recommended Li Tiaotiao to everyone many times. You can also see a bunch of grass planting posts by just searching on social media platforms.

There are many bad reviews of Watching Pioneer 2.

Why is it so popular? Let me tell a cousin’s story:

One day, my cousin opened the mobile App to quickly check important information. At this time, a 5-second open-screen advertisement appeared in front of him.

He was a little impatient, but he had to squint like a hunter and look for the "skip" button all over the screen.

However, the button was too cunning. It was almost five seconds before he lit it-

And because the button is too small, he actually clicked on the advertisement. . .

He hates himself. Why can’t his fingers be as small as jumping buttons? It must be his problem!

Just when my cousin was disheartened, I recommended Li Tiaotiao to him.

Since then, my cousin has been upgraded, and he is no longer fighting alone.

The moment the advertisement pops up, Li will say: Let me do it.

After about 0.0925 seconds, Li Tiaotiao successfully found "Skip" and clicked it.

Cousin was so frightened that he didn’t even see the advertisement clearly.

He also found that Li Tiaotiao has built-in multiple scanning modes, and even if the advertisement has a fake skip button, Li Tiaotiao can get to the truth.

And such a software, it doesn’t cost money, it doesn’t need to be connected to the internet, and it doesn’t have to worry about privacy. . .

Now, you can understand why Li Tiaotiao has received countless praises.

Ok, let’s tell the story from another angle.

Imagine that you are a small company owner with a mobile phone application. For the sake of the company’s operation, you opened the advertising space.

Generally speaking, the charging method of open-screen advertising is CPC, which charges according to the number of times the advertisement is clicked.

You find that because of the existence of software like Li Tiaotiao, the number of times users click advertisements is much less.

Accordingly, your income has also decreased, and your salary will not be paid next month.

Whether you are angry or not, whether you want to fuck them or not, you even think that you have done it correctly, and the other party is in the wrong anyway.

That’s what I said at the beginning. It’s reasonable that Li Tiaotiao was engaged, because it affected the interests of others.

Let’s go back to the matter itself.

In the early morning of the 24th, Li Tiaotiao announced on the official WeChat official account that "the software will stop working indefinitely" and attached a lawyer’s letter.

The lawyer’s letter is coded and it can be seen that it comes from a large internet company.

The reason given by the other party is unfair competition.

It probably means that the software interferes with the operation mode and profit mode of the browser by shielding and filtering the advertisements of a browser, which constitutes unfair competition.

Let’s not talk about whether Li Tiaotiao can constitute unfair competition software.

There are many similar cases in the past, which can be used as reference.

Adblock Plus (hereinafter referred to as ABP), an advertising blocking plug-in in Germany, has been sued many times, basically for "constituting unfair competition".

In these cases, ABP has lost and won.

In 2015, ABP was considered as unfair competition by the Frankfurt state court and ruled that a temporary injunction was issued.

In 2018, Springer, the publisher of Le Monde, filed a lawsuit against ABP, and the German Supreme Court ruled that ABP did not violate the competition law.

People’s courts think that users have the right not to watch advertisements, just like advertisements in newspapers and magazines, and everyone can choose to ignore or turn pages.

After a year, Springer said that ABP infringed, and sued again in a different posture, but ABP still won.

The court will generally pay attention to two key factors-subjective will and degree of influence.

For example, in 2016, the court in Cologne, Germany, ruled that ABP itself did not violate the competition law (but other aspects lost), mainly saying two points.

First, ABP is not targeted to hinder others.

ABP is an open source software, which filters the advertisements of corresponding websites according to the list.

Note, however, that the list is public and can be modified and used by anyone.

ABP only intercepts content according to the list provided by users.

To make an inappropriate analogy, whether a kitchen knife is bought to cut vegetables or people depends on the buyer’s subjective will, and the kitchen knife is only responsible for "cutting".

Therefore, ABP is technology neutral and does not hinder others.

Second, ABP did not harm others excessively.

The court held that although ABP affected the plaintiff’s model: advertising+free content, there was no evidence that the plaintiff could not provide content without advertising. In addition, the plaintiff already has the technology to block users who use plug-ins.

This means that ABP does not affect other people’s business models too much.

There are similar cases in China.

In 2015, ADsafe was sued by Aiqiyi and PPTV, and violated the Anti-Unfair Competition Law by "infringing on others’ legitimate business model and making profits for themselves without justifiable reasons".

In 2019, Window of the World browser was sentenced to violate recognized business ethics for blocking Tencent video advertisements, which constituted unfair competition and compensated 1.89 million yuan.

In the same year, 720 browser was judged as unfair competition for intercepting and blocking mango TV advertisements, and compensated 800,000 yuan.

Although the legal provisions at home and abroad are different, the key points of such cases are quite consistent.

Blocking advertisements like 720 browser is actually a built-in ABP plug-in, which emphasizes that it is technology neutral in court.

However, the court held that he did not simply provide users with ABP technology for the benefit of users, but increased the browser’s own resources and sought more trading opportunities.

What he said about "technology neutrality" is obviously inconsistent with the facts.

The plot of the Window of the World browser case is also quite ups and downs.

At the first trial, the court held that Window of the World browser did not target Tencent video and did not cause fundamental damage, so it did not constitute unfair competition.

Later, Tencent refused to accept the appeal.

The court of second instance held that the browser violated the Interim Measures for the Administration of Internet Advertising in 2016.

"Internet advertising activities shall not provide or use applications, hardware, etc. to intercept, filter, cover, fast-forward and other restrictions on other people’s legitimate advertisements. 」

The court said that even if this provision is not considered, it is also an act of taking the initiative to directly intervene and intervene in other people’s business operations, which violates recognized business ethics and violates the anti-unfair competition law.

In addition, the court also held that Window of the World browser destroyed people’s business model, which would not only harm the interests of consumers, but also endanger the development space of online video industry in the long run.

So to sum up, the key points of this kind of cases are technical neutrality, subjective will, whether it has a far-reaching impact, and whether it violates the law and recognizes business ethics.

After reading the past cases, let’s go back to Li Tiaotiao.

First of all, the bad reviewer wants to ask a question from the operational logic:

Li Tiaotiao is a little different from filtering advertisements. It just helps people click "Skip".

It’s like I hired a brother who has been single for 30 years. He just responded a little faster and his hand was a little faster. After the advertisement appeared, he helped us to "skip".

This, this doesn’t work either. . .

Moreover, it can be seen from Li Tiaotiao’s confession that Li Tiaotiao has no profit.

In order to solve the question, the bad judge consulted a lawyer friend, who said that Li Tiaotiao may indeed constitute "unfair competition".

You may wonder, Li Tiaotiao is not profitable, and he is not an operator. How can it constitute unfair competition?

This sentence may have worked in the past, but the unfair competition law was changed in 2017.

The revision in 2017 expanded the scope of operators from the perspective of "behavioral characteristics", from the original "commodity management or profit-making services" to "commodity production, management or service provision", and the providers of commodity production and non-profit services were also included in the scope of operators.

Therefore, even if Li Tiaotiao is not profitable, he may be an operator, and his subjective will constitutes "unfair competition."

Of course, whether Li Tiao Tiao constitutes unfair competition law or not, at the end of the story, Li Tiao Tiao all chose to stop the watch indefinitely. . .

I don’t think people need to feel too bad.

First, as long as there is an installation package, you can continue to use it, but the App can’t be updated and maintained later.

Second, we should be clear about what phenomenon Li Tiaotiao is the product of.

It is the phenomenon that advertisers cross the sea, show their magical powers and try their best to deceive and mislead users to click on advertisements.

Some advertisements have no skip buttons, some have fake skip buttons, some are so small that they are almost invisible, and some skip buttons need to be pressed twice.

Some advertisements put a "fake play button", some put a "fake return button", and some put a "fake message pop-up".

Even some obviously click skip, but there is still a certain probability to enter the details. . .

At that time, as soon as we opened the mobile App, we had to fight with advertisers and fight with each other on a few inches of screen.

Under this kind of internet advertising chaos, Li Tiaotiao appeared.

For users, Li Tiaotiao is Robin Hood who robs the rich and helps the poor. If it is done by the iron fist of capital, most people will naturally take their side.

But that was before.

Since May 1st this year, the State implemented the Measures for the Administration of Internet Advertisements, which explicitly prohibited all kinds of situations of cheating and misleading users to click on advertisements, the above phenomenon has actually decreased a lot.

Of course, you can’t say no.

I want to say that the demand for this kind of software is negatively related to the standardization of advertising.

The more standardized your advertisement is, the less people will resent it, and the fewer people will naturally use Li Tiaotiao.

If one day, when all the open-screen advertisements can make users simply find the skip button and click it quickly and conveniently, then everyone doesn’t need Li Tiaotiao. . .

To some extent, Li Tiaotiao has a sense of Dying to Survive. They are not absolutely correct products, and they will not be invincible in the law because they are widely supported by everyone.

However, as a former beneficiary, as a user who was deeply poisoned by open-screen advertisements, I still want to say thank you to the developers behind Li Tiaotiao.

I heard that you don’t look at the nutrient list when you buy food? It is necessary to popularize science!

The third week of May is National Nutrition Week.

This year’s theme is "How to cook, how to choose and how to read labels"

Learn to read nutrition labels

Do on-demand meal preparation and nutrition catering.

Koppjun believes that

This is a compulsory course for everyone.

So, how do we read food labels?

Make a reasonable meal plan?

The higher the ranking of ingredients, the more content.

It is stipulated in our country that all prepackaged foods must be printed with nutrition labels on the outer packaging, including ingredient list, nutrition ingredient list, nutrition claim, etc. Otherwise, it is an illegal product.

Just know one key point about the ingredient list: the higher the content, the higher the ranking.

Therefore, no matter how extravagant the advertisement is, you can understand it at first glance.

For example, if you buy dried fruit, if white sugar is at the top of the ingredient list, or if there is edible salt and oil, it is not recommended to give it to children, which will easily lead to excessive sugar and sodium in one day.

In addition, we need to pay attention to the food additives in the ingredient list.

The purpose of food additives is to meet the needs of color, fragrance, seasoning, preservation, preservation and processing technology.

The following ham sausage and instant noodles cover almost all additives.

↓ View food additives for various purposes ↓

● Color matching-colorant, color fixative and bleach.

● Flavoring-edible essence

● Seasoning-salt, flavor enhancer, sweetener, sour agent, salty agent and umami agent.

● Anticorrosion-preservatives and antioxidants

● Preservation-antioxidant

● Processing technology needs-thickener, emulsifier, etc.

● Nutritional fortification-nutritional fortifier

To sum up, the conclusion can be drawn from the ingredient list is that materials are the best for food, and the shorter the ingredient list, the better.

Understand the nutrient composition table

There are usually three main contents in the nutrient composition table. From left to right, the names of the nutrients, the contents of the nutrients and the nutrient reference values (NRV%) are listed.

The contents that must be marked in the nutrient composition table are:

01

Nutrients that need to be listed:

China adopts the "1+4" model, that is, energy+four core nutrients (protein, fat, carbohydrate and sodium). Except for some exempted foods, all nutritional ingredients must have these five ingredients on the list.

In addition, when there are raw materials (hydrogenated and/or partially hydrogenated vegetable oil, non-dairy creamer, etc.) that may contain trans fatty acids in the ingredient list, it must be marked.

Merchants can also selectively add some nutrients. For example, dairy products usually add "calcium" and coarse grain products often add "cellulose".

Examples of nutritional components of basic models in GB 28050-2011

02

Specific values corresponding to five items:

Generally speaking, how much is contained in "every 100g", drinks are used in "every 100ml", and many snacks with high energy will be used in "each serving" or "each package".

03

Nutrient reference values percentage (NRV%):

The country has a recommended daily intake value for ordinary adults for each nutrient, and the latter percentage value represents how much share you used today when you ate 100g/ml of this food.

After learning the above "basic knowledge"

It helps to know yourself.

How many calories have you eaten?

How do you know what you eat?

How much heat is there?

According to the national standard, the content in the table of nutrients is per 100ml, or per 100g, or in a serving of food.

net content

If it is 100g or 100ml, it needs to be combined with the "net content".

For example, the net content of a bottle of beverage is 500ml, and the energy value in the nutrition table is 190 kilojoules per 100ml, so the energy of the whole bottle of beverage is 190×5=950 kilojoules.

a part; a portion; a share

According to the "one copy", the specific amount of "one copy" will be written.

For example, if a packet of instant coffee powder is 15g, its nutrient content table may be "one serving (15g)", so you can look at it directly without counting.

convert

In addition, the energy unit of food labels is kilojoules (KJ), which is an internationally used unit for labeling calories, but the calories we normally say are kilocalories (Kcal), which are also called calories and calories. The conversion relationship between them is as follows:

1kcal=4.184kJ

Calculate daily requirements according to NRV

As we said earlier, NRV% is the content that must be marked in the nutrient composition table. NRV is short for Nutrition Reference Values, which is translated into Chinese as Nutrient Reference Values.

Nutrient reference values refers to the amount of certain nutrients that ordinary people should eat every day under normal circumstances.

The NRV value of each nutrient is given in the national standard General Rules for Nutrition Labeling in prepackaged foods (GB 28050-2011):

Understand what NRV is, add a percent sign and write it as "NRV%" or "nutrient reference values%", which means that the actual content of a nutrient in this food accounts for the proportion of its NRV.

It is difficult for ordinary consumers to see the level of a certain nutrient in food from the digital surface. For example, the fat content in a nut nutrient composition table below is 53.2g/100g, and consumers can’t know whether the "53.2 g" here is high or low, but it is easy to understand if it is expressed by NRV%. Eating 100 grams of this food can probably meet 89% of the fat I need in a day, and other foods with more fat should be eaten less!

NRV%= content ÷NRV×100%

The above picture shows the nutritional composition table of a dairy product. We can see that every 100ml of dairy product contains 110mg of calcium, and nutritionists suggest that adults consume 800mg of calcium every day, and 110÷800×100%=13.75% (about 14% in the composition table), which is the meaning of our NRV%.

If the whole box of milk has 250 ml, when you finish it, you have completed 34.4% of today’s calcium intake task.

Friends who have special needs for food, such as gaining muscle, losing weight and controlling salt, need to pay special attention to NRV%. Through these values, calculate your daily intake.

How’s it going?

Want to achieve "can cook and choose, can read the label"

Isn’t it that difficult?

Congratulations!

Cole and the Development of Sino-German Relations

Former German Chancellor helmut kohl (1930-2017). Oriental IC data map

On June 16, 2017, former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl passed away at the age of 87. Cole was born into a Catholic family in ludwigshafen, Germany on April 3, 1930. From 1982 to 1998, he served as the Prime Minister of the Federal Republic of Germany and the unified Germany, witnessing the unification of the two Germans.

Cole visited China four times during his tenure as Prime Minister, which made positive contributions to the development of Sino-German relations. He was called "an active promoter of Sino-German relations and an old friend of the German people" by German leaders. In fact, as early as 1974, before China’s reform and opening up, Kohl visited China and became one of the earliest politicians in the Federal Republic of Germany to visit China. This paper focuses on reviewing Kohl’s outstanding contribution to the development of Sino-German relations, so as to cherish the memory of this great politician.

First, Cole’s first trip to China

In 1972, China established diplomatic relations with the Federal Republic of Germany, but for a long time after that, the ruling Social Democratic Party (SPD) government still regarded the Soviet Union as the focus in its New Oriental policy, unwilling to offend the Soviet Union by developing diplomatic relations with China. Therefore, the Federal German government’s political contacts with China are very cold. "Doing (economic) business with Beijing and talking about detente with Moscow" has become an important feature of the Federal German government’s policy towards China and the Soviet Union, two eastern powers.

In contrast, Cole’s Christian Democratic Union (CDU) not only played an important role in the process of establishing diplomatic relations between China and the Federal Republic of Germany, but also became the main political force of the Federal Republic of Germany to promote the development of bilateral relations between the two countries after the establishment of diplomatic relations. In 1971, the visit of CDU party member and former Federal German Foreign Minister Gerhard Schr?der (1910-1989) to China became a prelude to the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries. Franz Josef Strauss (1915-1988), the leader of Christian Social Union (CSU), the sister party of CDU in the Bundestag, also visited China many times and held talks with Mao Zedong.

Before Cole’s first visit to China in September, 1974, Willy Brandt (1913-1992) had resigned as prime minister, and the Social Democratic Party began to make adjustments to its China policy. The CDU still held the initiative in its China policy. Cole, who has become the chairman of the CDU and the governor of rheinland-pfalz, held talks with Deng Xiaoping, then the deputy prime minister of the State Council, and established a personal friendly relationship with Deng Xiaoping. This visit to China has deepened his understanding of China, and he thinks: "As a potential superpower, China plays a decisive role in international politics. China’s support for Western European Union and German reunification is very important. "

Second, promote the development of Sino-German relations in the 1980s

In 1982, the Social Democratic Party government, which had been in power for more than ten years, went out of office, and the CDU regained the position of Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany. Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany also changed from Helmut Schmidt (1918-2015) to Kohl. The relationship between China and the Federal Republic of Germany has ushered in a more rapid development.

In October 1984, Cole visited China for the first time as Prime Minister. According to the Germans at this time, a "revolution" is taking place in China, and Deng Xiaoping is regarded as the leader of this revolution. The Federal German reporter who visited China with Cole at the same time believed that the Chinese side showed a brand-new external appearance in the reception process, "from exporting revolutionary ideology to praising the market economy". During his current visit to China, Cole’s conversation with Deng Xiaoping, who is leading China’s reform and opening up, is also more relaxed than it was 10 years ago. The two sides not only talked about state affairs, but also had a relaxed exchange on issues such as height and longevity. In order to show respect for this guest and attach importance to the technology of the Federal Republic of Germany, Deng Xiaoping even said modestly to Cole that it will take China another 50 years to catch up with the economic level of the Federal Republic of Germany.

Cole told the Bundestag after returning home that China and the Federal Republic of Germany have a lot in common on issues such as safeguarding world peace, European union and dealing with national division. In a government statement on October 18th, 1984, he emphasized China’s important position in world politics as the world’s most populous country, a nuclear power and a permanent member of the UN Security Council, and pointed out that "China’s opening to the world and its modernization process will not be reversed".

Cole’s trip has also greatly promoted the economic, trade and cultural exchanges between the two countries. More than 20 people from the industrial and commercial circles of the Federal Republic of Germany came to China to discuss with the Chinese side such issues as nuclear power plants, television satellites and Sino-German joint-venture automobile enterprises. During his current visit to China, Cole personally witnessed the signing ceremony of Shanghai Volkswagen Co., Ltd., a joint venture between the two countries and one of the models of Sino-foreign joint ventures. Tongji University, also located in Shanghai, has a long history with Germany and was once the focus of Germany’s cultural policy toward China. During Cole’s first visit to China, he visited Tongji University on October 13th, which was the first visit to Tongji University by the Federal Chancellor after the founding of New China. During his visit to Tongji University, Cole pointed out that he hoped Tongji University students would become a bridge between the two countries. By 1987, the number of China students studying and studying in the Federal Republic of Germany had reached 2,150, which was the largest among China students in western European countries.

The closer relationship between China and the Federal Republic of Germany indirectly urges the Democratic Republic of Germany, another country of the German nation, to accelerate the normalization of relations with China. Since 1960, the relationship between China and the GDR once deteriorated to the brink of breaking off diplomatic relations. After 1976, the GDR observed the political and economic situation in China for a long time, and became the first country in the Soviet-East camp to normalize relations with China before the Soviet Union. It regards China not only as a force that can be used in diplomacy and international politics, but also as an economic partner with great potential. Cole’s visit to China put great pressure on the top political leaders of GDR. Erich Honecker (1912-1994), the leader of the GDR, pointed out that the cooperation between China and the Federal Republic of Germany and other western countries "will only benefit the reactionary forces of international imperialism" and lead to "Beijing’s hostility to socialist countries", and the GDR urgently needs to normalize relations with China.        

Against this background, in October 1986, two years after Cole’s visit to China, honecker, the first figure in the GDR, finally successfully completed his planned visit to China for many years. The normalization of the relationship between China and the GDR means that the relationship between China and the two Germans has begun to emerge from the shadow of the Cold War.

When Cole came to China again as Prime Minister in July 1987, he was called "an old friend of the people of China" by China leaders at that time. In fact, before his visit to China, both the political and economic circles of the Federal Republic of Germany were uncertain about the domestic situation and future development of China at that time. When meeting with Cole, Deng Xiaoping, then director of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China Advisory Committee, said that China’s reform and opening-up process will continue, and there are no contradictions and disputes between China and the Federal Republic of Germany. Therefore, long-term cooperation between the two countries is entirely possible. Cole said, "China’s great development can be seen everywhere", "China is constantly fighting against backwardness and complacency with vigorous energy".

At this time, the economic and trade relations between the two countries continued to develop rapidly, and the trade volume between the two sides reached 8.9 billion marks. The Federal Republic of Germany has become the fourth largest trading partner of China after Hong Kong, China, Japan and the United States. However, due to the lack of foreign exchange and huge trade deficit in China at that time, the export of the Federal Republic of Germany to China was greatly restricted, making it difficult to further expand and many large-scale projects were difficult to carry out. To this end, the Federal Republic of Germany has increased its efforts to provide government loans to China in order to promote the growth of exports to China. A representative project is the Metro Line 1 built for Shanghai by the Federal Government of Germany. On the condition of government loans, the Federal Republic of Germany also exported its trains and electric equipment to China.

Cole’s trip is also trying to solve the problem that the Federal Republic of Germany has less investment in China. At that time, among the 3,000 Sino-foreign joint ventures in China, there were only 19 joint ventures between China and the Federal Republic of Germany. During this trip, Kohl reached an agreement with Chinese leaders that the two sides will set up a special expert group to discuss the investment of Federal German enterprises in China every year.

Thanks to the joint efforts of senior leaders of both sides, throughout the 1980s, China and the Federal Republic of Germany exchanged more than 20 visits of officials at the level of deputy minister or above each year. During these mutual visits, the issue of economic and trade cooperation has become the central topic of both sides. Trade between the two countries also increased rapidly from $3.141 billion in 1985 to $4.918 billion in 1988. The advanced scientific and technological experience, products and strong financial strength of the Federal Republic of Germany have greatly helped China’s reform and opening up.

Third, respond to the crisis of Sino-German relations

Cole’s other great contribution to Sino-German relations was to maintain bilateral relations in the crisis of 1989, so that they did not fall into further deterioration.

In 1989, the international situation was in a period of intense turmoil and transition, and both China and the Federal Republic of Germany were faced with great challenges. The collapse of socialism in the Democratic Republic of Germany and the wave of reunification of the two Germans have made the (federal) German society more tough on the ideological issue of China, which is also a socialist country. After the political turmoil in China in June 1989, the Bundestag immediately announced sanctions against China. These sanctions mainly include suspending high-level political exchanges, re-examining cooperation projects between the two countries, no longer providing loans and stopping development assistance to China. The deterioration of bilateral political relations between the two countries has directly led to a sharp decline in trade, scientific and cultural exchanges between the two countries. The relationship between China and the Federal Republic of Germany is in the biggest crisis since the establishment of diplomatic relations.

The economic circles of the Federal Republic of Germany expressed their worries and dissatisfaction with the economic sanctions against China. As Heinrich Weiss, who was the chairman of the China Working Group of the Asia-Pacific Committee of the (Federal) German economic circles from 1982 to 1997, said, the punitive measures taken by the government for too long at that time not only caused short-term trade losses, but also damaged the priority position of the Federal Republic of Germany in trade with China. However, despite domestic sanctions, Federal German enterprises continue to develop relations with China. Volkswagen announced in July 1989 that it would expand the production of Shanghai Volkswagen. At the end of November 1990, Volkswagen and Changchun FAW agreed to establish a joint venture to produce Audi cars.

We now know that it was the Parliament of the Federal Republic of Germany and the Social Democratic Party that actively encouraged sanctions against China at that time. In contrast, the Federal Government of Germany led by Cole tried to maintain the relations between the two countries in a difficult situation. Regarding the domestic situation in China, the basic judgment of the Federal German government is that "it is in China’s actual interests to continue reform and opening up, while the continued tough sanctions imposed on China by the outside world are not conducive to this development". Therefore, "the existing development assistance projects guaranteed by contracts should continue". A document issued by the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Germany on June 9, 1989 not only holds that the government should resist sanctions such as stopping development assistance and recalling its ambassador to China, but also points out that "we can only influence China if we maintain relations with it" and that "continuing to isolate China will destroy the international balance of power, which is not in our interest".

On August 15th, the document of the Foreign Ministry of the Federal Republic of Germany pointed out that the continued sanctions imposed by the Federal Republic of Germany and the West on China may bring China and the Soviet Union closer together politically and economically, thus changing the balance of international political power, which is unfavorable to the Federal Republic of Germany. The goal of the Federal Republic of Germany’s China policy is to prevent China from falling into international isolation and readjusting the policy of reform and opening up. Therefore, "the Federal Republic of Germany will resume high-level exchanges with China step by step".

In practice, the Federal German government not only rejected the Social Democratic Party’s request to temporarily close the Goethe Institute in Beijing (established in 1988) and stop scientific and technological cooperation with China, thus maintaining the cultural relations between the two countries, but also tried to maintain the cooperation projects between the two countries, including the Shanghai subway aided by the Federal Republic of Germany. In late May 1991, before the Bundestag officially lifted the sanctions against China, the unified German Foreign Ministry resumed political consultations with China. The State Secretary of the German Ministry of Economy and the Minister of Economy also visited China successively. During this period, most of the high-ranking German politicians who visited China came from the German government or members of the Union Party in the parliament (such as Hans Klein, deputy speaker of the Bundestag who visited China at the end of January 1992).

We now know that all measures aimed at maintaining China’s relations with the Federal Republic of Germany at that time and normalizing relations with China were "jointly carried out by the (Federal) German government and its Foreign Ministry". Cole, as the then prime minister of the government, undoubtedly played a key role in maintaining the relations between the two countries during the crisis in 1989, which eventually prompted the Bundestag to cancel the economic cooperation and export restrictions to China and provide development assistance to China again. At the end of October 1992, German Foreign Minister kinkel (1936-) visited China, which normalized Sino-German relations.

IV. Visit to China under the New Asia Policy Background

In October 1990, Germany was reunified. For reunified Germany, the Asia-Pacific region is an attractive but underinvested region. The temporary difficulties in German economy after reunification and the new situation in German diplomacy after reunification make it urgent for Germany to strengthen cooperation with China. It coincides with the 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of China held in October 1992, and the goal of economic reform is to establish a socialist market economic system. The 14th National Congress pointed out that whether China can accelerate its economic development is not only a major economic issue, but also a major political issue. In this case, China urgently needs investment from Germany and the resumption of Sino-German trade.

Compared with the United States, Germany’s economic and trade activities in the Asia-Pacific region are obviously insufficient. Winston Lord (1937-), then Assistant Secretary of State of the United States, once said: "No other region in the world is more important to the United States today than the Asia-Pacific." More than 20% of American foreign investment is in Asia. However, Germany’s investment in Asian countries is less than 5% of its total foreign investment.

In February and March of 1993, Cole visited India, Singapore, Indonesia, Japan and South Korea. This visit made him deeply shocked by the vigorous development of Asian economy. Immediately after his return to China, he said that Asian affairs were the "priority" for Germany. During the talks with cabinet ministers, Kohl put forward a plan for Germany’s new Asian policy, which was approved at the cabinet meeting at the end of September. This document points out that Germany needs a "more active Asian policy", which will "guarantee Germany’s future".

Cole believes that Asia will become the most important continent in the 21st century. Strengthening economic ties with the fastest growing regions in the world is the central point of Germany’s Asian policy. In foreign affairs and foreign economic activities, Germany gives priority to Asia and Asia-Pacific countries, but no country in Asia is experiencing rapid economic development like China. He regards China as a country with global significance, and strengthening economic and trade exchanges with China is one of the focuses of this new Asian policy.

Cole’s visit to China in November 1993 was launched under this background. This is also the first time that German top leaders have visited China since reunification. Cole not only talked with the new leadership of China, but also successfully signed an economic cooperation contract of $2.927 billion. Through this visit to China, the relationship between Germany and China has accelerated.

By the time he visited China for the last time as German Chancellor in November, 1995, Sino-German relations, especially bilateral economic and trade relations, had grown. According to statistics, in 1997, Sino-German trade volume reached US$ 12.67 billion, accounting for one third of China-EU trade at that time. In 1996, a total of 963 German enterprises invested in China, with investment agreements amounting to more than US$ 8 billion, distributed in 1,886 projects. By 1998, China had imported 2,951 technology contracts from Germany, amounting to US$ 14.46 billion, second only to China’s technology imports from the United States. By the turn of the century, Germany has become the European country with the largest technology transfer to China.

Fifth, the aftertaste of Cole’s China policy

As a CDU politician, Cole has always viewed the relationship between the two countries from the realistic perspective of international balance of power since his first visit to China.. He has long regarded China as an important force that Germany can rely on on on the world stage, believed in the important role of China’s reform and opening up to Germany and the world, and tried to promote the development of bilateral relations by developing economic and trade relations.Most of Cole’s many visits to China during his tenure as Prime Minister also focused on economic and trade themes. This became an important tradition of Germany’s China policy, which was inherited by the later German political leaders..

Judging from the tradition of German foreign policy, Kohl’s insistence on maintaining and developing contacts with Chinese high-level officials in the crisis of relations between China and (the Federal Republic of) Germany is actually the embodiment of Germany’s strategy of "promoting evolution through proximity" to countries in the Soviet Union and East Europe. Of course, the result of foreign policy is often more complicated than the designer of the policy thinks. The relationship between the two countries that emerged from the crisis has gradually developed and expanded in recent years. The deepening and further development of economic and trade exchanges between the two countries has promoted the further development and consolidation of bilateral relations in humanities, science and technology, society and especially important political and diplomatic fields. In 2014, the Sino-German Cooperation Action Program jointly issued by the Chinese and German governments pointed out that "Sino-German economic and trade relations are the core component of bilateral relations".

At present, Germany is China’s largest trading partner in the EU, and China has become Germany’s largest trading partner in the world (in 2016). On the basis of strengthening economic and trade exchanges, China and Germany have gradually established close interdependence. The exchanges between the two countries not only enabled the Federal Republic of Germany to "further enter the stage of world politics", but also provided a model for cooperation between countries with different systems.

Sell gold and realize it! Demand for gold recovery is warming up

Huang Yulin

Affected by the uncertainty of US tariff policy, safe-haven assets continue to flow into the gold market. On February 20th, the price of gold surged again, with COMEX gold reaching a maximum of $2,957 per ounce, with an intraday increase of nearly 0.3%.

As the price of gold rose, many investors seized the opportunity to realize it. A reporter from China, a brokerage firm, visited and found that after the year, the passenger flow of gold recycling channels such as commercial banks and gold stalls increased, and some banks took the opportunity to attract customers and launched non-bank gold recycling services.

"Not all outlets support gold recycling." It is understood that under normal circumstances, only the outlets with higher specifications in the region will open the gold recycling business, and the recycling price is linked to the international gold price and gold purchase channels.

Commercial banks actively attract customers.

"There are people who consult gold bars and gold investments almost every day." The manager of a lobby of a state-owned bank in Guangdong told China, a brokerage firm, that since the year, the price of gold has continued to rise, and customers’ demand for gold investment transactions has increased significantly. The reporter saw in the mobile online shopping malls of several banks that the investment gold bars sold showed "out of stock" status.

There is also the gold recycling business, but it is worth noting that not all commercial bank outlets provide gold recycling services.

Take ICBC as an example. According to the "ICBC Gold Repurchase Raiders" issued by the bank, the bank has more than 500 repurchase outlets. China, a brokerage, found that the bank has nearly 30 outlets in Beijing to support this business. The gold repurchase strategy issued by the Agricultural Bank of China Retail Bank shows that the bank has opened nearly 3,000 gold repurchase outlets nationwide to provide customers with convenient gold trading channels and services.

It is understood that most commercial banks have strict requirements on the "brand name" in the gold recycling business they invest in, and most commercial banks can only recycle the gold bars they sell. "Gold bars need to be sold by the Bank, and relevant bills such as packaging and proof of purchase must be kept." The staff of the Agricultural Bank said.

As the demand heats up, some banks also take the opportunity to carry out gold recovery business that is not sold by the bank. ICBC recently launched the repurchase service of "non-ICBC brand gold bars received by ICBC". In addition to the gold products sold by ICBC, it can also repurchase Au99.99 brand gold bars from 14 commercial banks and 2 gold enterprises (China Gold and Shandong Zhaojin).

Regarding the repurchase price, ICBC’s customer service responded: "The basic price of gold repurchase is set with reference to the price of Shanghai Gold Exchange. Generally, a certain repurchase spread is deducted from the basic price of gold repurchase, in which the repurchase spread of brand gold of the Bank is 4 yuan/gram, and the repurchase spread of other gold products is 10 yuan/gram."

Dong Ximiao, the chief researcher of Zhaolian, said that the bank’s gold repurchase business can first meet the needs of customers to realize gold bars to obtain liquidity after the gold price rises. Secondly, banks can also obtain fee income through repurchase price difference. "

"The transformation after the customer’s gold is recovered and realized is also very important." Dong Ximiao said that after the customer’s physical gold is realized, the funds are likely to be used to purchase wealth management and fund needs, which is also an opportunity for commercial banks to acquire customers and increase customer stickiness.

Demand is hot! Brand stores adjust the "trade-in" rule

In addition to commercial banks, branded gold shops and pawn shops are also the main channels for gold recovery. "From the beginning of 2024, the passenger flow recovered every month has increased." Wife of shop-owner Liu, who runs stalls in Shenzhen Shuibei Market, the largest gold and jewelry trading market in China, told China, a brokerage firm.

Many operators said that the recovery price in the shellfish market also fluctuates with the international gold price, and the general recovery price difference is around 7-15 yuan. In contrast, the gold recycling service of brand gold shops has a big difference. Take Chow Tai Fook as an example. On February 20th, the full gold price was 892 yuan/gram, and the gold recycling service price was 666 yuan/gram.

Some operators said that because the price of gold is too high, many consumers choose to buy physical gold in the form of "exchanging old gold for new ones, and the price difference is more refunded and less replenished": "In addition to realizing cash, the guests who come to the Shuibei market want to exchange old gold for new ones, and deduct the total price of new ornaments with old gold ornaments to get physical gold with newer styles or heavier weight."

Data show that on February 21st, the price of gold jewelry of Chow Tai Fook, Leofoo, Luk Fook Jewelry and other brands has reached 892 yuan/gram, while that of Zhou Shengsheng has risen to 895 yuan/gram. Online gold brand stores are still crowded.

During the visit, some merchants reported that due to the recent surge in demand for "trade-in" and "gold recycling", the brand of gold ornaments has begun to adjust the relevant rules of gold recycling business.

"If you recycle it today, you can also’ get grams by grams’ (meaning that 1g of old gold can be deducted and exchanged for 1g of new jewelry), and you only need to make up the work fee. In a couple of days, we will adjust the rules, which may need to be increased by 20% to 30%. For example, if you want to buy 10g new jewelry, you need to recycle 12g and 13g old gold. " On February 19th, a salesperson of a Zhou Dasheng store in Beijing told China, a brokerage firm.

Lou Feipeng, a researcher at the Postal Savings Bank, told reporters that the price of gold has hit record highs recently, and the market expects that the price of gold may fluctuate next. For investors who invested in gold at a low point in the early stage, it is an effective way to increase investment income by choosing to leave their bags for safety.

"For gold recycling, different channels have different risks." Wang Pengbo, a senior analyst in Broadcom Consulting’s financial industry, pointed out that the conditions for bank repurchase are relatively strict, and there are requirements for the appearance and certificate of gold; Moreover, due to profit and risk considerations, the price given by pawnshops is usually low, and customers have to bear the redemption risk; Gold stores may have irregular operations and are greatly affected by their own business strategies.

Wang Pengbo said that investors need to understand the recycling policies of different channels, and then make a decision after comparison according to their actual situation. They should also understand the market conditions and have a rough judgment on the value of gold to avoid being acquired at an unreasonable low price. In addition, if you don’t choose commercial banks, investors are advised to choose big stores or banks with good reputation for trading.
