China Network August 25 th According to the official WeChat message of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, the official WeChat of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security issued an urgent reminder. Be careful when receiving calls from these 170 and 171 numbers. Many people have been cheated!

　　Sections 170 and 171 were originally special sections for virtual operator, but they can be purchased without real-name registration because the regulatory measures are not in place, which has become a hotbed of fraudulent phone calls and text messages, which makes people turn pale.

　　Mention your name directly in the text message and try not to open it! The most serious consequence is that your mobile phone will be infected with Trojan virus, and valuable information in your mobile phone will be stolen.

　　The above is a scam message.

　　Real case 1: "You are suspected of money laundering"

　　On March 10, 2016, Ms. Zhu reported to the police that she received a phone call claiming to be a police officer of a city public security bureau that she was suspected of money laundering, and the police were about to freeze her bank account involved, and asked her to immediately transfer all the money in her account to the "safe account" provided by the police. After the investigation is clear, if there is no criminal suspicion, she will return the funds in full. Ms. Zhu transferred 7,000 yuan according to her request and found that she was cheated. The case is under further investigation.

　　Real Case 2: "Your credit card is overdrawn"

　　On April 24, 2016, Ms. Chen received a phone call claiming to be a courier, saying that Ms. Chen had a credit card in it, and this credit card had been overdrawn. Then the other party transferred the phone to a city public security bureau, and a man claiming to be a certain police officer claimed that this credit card was indeed Ms. Chen’s. If she didn’t pay back the money, she would be criminally liable and demanded to pay a deposit of 10,000 yuan. After doing so, Ms. Chen found that she had been cheated.

　　Coincidentally. On March 26th, Mr. Huang said that his mobile phone received a short message to increase the credit card limit that day. After he entered the link on the information (wap.zgpqe.com) and filled in the relevant information, he received a call to increase the credit card limit by 1718714XXXX, asking him to tell the other party the verification code. After Mr. Huang told the other party the verification code, he found that his credit card had been transferred by more than RMB 10,000.

　　Real case 3: "Your mobile phone number was stolen"

　　On June 12, 2016, Ms. Ke reported that she received a phone call on the same day. The other party said that a mobile phone number she handled in a business hall owed 4,000 yuan, and now she transferred the call to the Public Security Bureau. A man who claimed to be a policeman said that someone had impersonated her ID card information. Now the mobile phone number has been suspected of illegal fund-raising, otherwise he will be punished for half a year. Then the man claimed to investigate his bank account. Ms. Ke followed the other party’s operation and transferred more than 50,000 yuan to the so-called "safe account", and found that she was cheated.

　　Real case 4: "If there is something wrong with your online shopping, you can get a refund."

　　On January 1, 2016, Ms. Ye received a phone call at 1708133xxxx. The other party said that there was something wrong with what Ms. Ye bought online, and now she could get a refund, and sent her a short message with a link through this number. After Ms. Ye entered the bank card number and verification code on the website page where the link jumped, she found that her bank card had been transferred away by more than 5,000 yuan.

　　Since the beginning of this year, 17 telecom fraud "prologue"

　　The following is the "prologue" of the call fraud at the beginning of the number 17 this year. Please be vigilant.

　　1. This is Taobao customer service XX. Due to system problems, there is something wrong with what you just bought online (clothes/game prepaid cards). Now I can give you a refund … …

　　2. Hello, I am a staff member of a certain bank. In view of your recent good credit of XX Bank, I can help you to apply for increasing the credit card limit of this bank … …

　　3. I am the leader of your friend XX, and I need to borrow some money from you because of something urgent. Please remit the money to the bank account of XXXX, with the account name XX… …

　　4. Hello, I’m a staff member of the dating website you just registered. If you want to make friends on our website, you have to pay a deposit first, 1000 yuan, and the deposit can be paid to the company’s designated account XXXX. …

　　5. I am a staff member of the Finance Bureau. I now inform you that you will go to the ATM of your nearby bank this morning to receive the car purchase subsidy (newborn subsidy, second child subsidy, house purchase subsidy) according to the prompts, and the contact number is 170XXX… …

　　6. I am a teacher of a certain university. According to the application for tuition subsidy submitted by you, it has been studied by the school. Now I inform you to go to the cash machine of your nearby bank and follow the prompts to receive the relevant subsidy … …

　　7. I am your daughter’s teacher. Your daughter is doing very well in school. Now the school wants her to participate in the XX competition, but now she needs to pay a training fee of 9800 yuan, which can be transferred to the XX account. Contact: Teacher XX, tel: 170XXX… …

　　8. Hello, I am a staff member of an airport. The ticket you just purchased has not been successfully issued due to system problems. Now I can give you a refund. Please provide your bank account and call the staff at 170XXX… …

　　The police once again reminded that when you receive a phone call or text message with the number beginning with 170 and 171, please identify the authenticity of the content in detail, try not to click on the link, and please check with the relevant departments in time to avoid cheating.

　　Minnan Net May 16 (Fujian Daily New Media Minnan Net reporter Chen Yuling correspondent Lin Yongkun) lax review, mismatch between people and vehicles, and lack of effective safety management … … In view of the problems existing in the current online car rental, Quanzhou Municipal Transportation Commission today convened the city’s online car rental platform companies and offline operating enterprises to issue the Notice on Strengthening the Management of Online Booking Taxi Management Services (hereinafter referred to as the "Notice"), which puts forward clear requirements for the management of online car rental platform companies, vehicles and employees. Fujian Daily New Media Minnan Net (www.mnw.cn) reporter learned from the meeting that from now on, the city’s online car-hailing platform is not allowed to send orders to non-compliant vehicles and drivers, and it is necessary to clean up the non-compliant vehicles in the platform before July 1, otherwise it will face treatment.

　　Quanzhou Traffic Law Enforcement Detachment also said at the meeting that it will formulate a special rectification work plan for network car, increase the intensity of road inspection, and comprehensively check whether the network car operator carries the Network Booking Taxi Transport Certificate and the Network Booking Taxi Driver’s Certificate, and deal with it in strict accordance with relevant laws and regulations.

　　Network car platform: clean up non-compliant vehicles before July.

　　According to the relevant regulations, in order to engage in online car rental business in Quanzhou, three certificates are required, namely, Online Booking Taxi Business License, Online Booking Taxi Driver’s License and Online Booking Taxi Transport Certificate. As of May 15th this year, nine platform enterprises in Quanzhou have obtained the License for Online Taxi Reservation, including one in Licheng District, six in Fengze District, one in Jinjiang and one in Shishi. At present, a total of 1,590 drivers in the city have obtained the Network Booking Taxi Transport Certificate, and 1,430 vehicles have applied to the traffic police department to change the nature of their vehicle driving licenses to "Network Booking Taxi", of which more than 100 have obtained the Network Booking Taxi Transport Certificate, and other vehicles are urging relevant platforms to speed up processing.

　　The notice requires that from July 1 this year, network car platform companies that have not obtained the "Network Appointment Taxi Business License" issued by Quanzhou shall not engage in network car business services in Quanzhou. At present, there is also a network car platform company in Quanzhou jurisdiction that has not obtained legal qualification, that is, the first car about the car.

　　For the qualified network car platform companies, the notice requires that orders should not be sent to non-compliant vehicles and drivers from now on, and the non-compliant vehicles in the platform should be cleaned up.

　　The notice also requires that all network car platforms should standardize platform operation management and data transmission, and the network car license information and operation data of relevant platform companies should be transmitted to Quanzhou network car supervision platform in real time. The data includes basic static information, order information, business information, positioning information, service quality evaluation, etc., that is, each order information should be transmitted to the supervision platform in real time to achieve seamless supervision. Among them, the delay of order information, business information and service quality evaluation shall not exceed 300 seconds, and the delay of real-time transmission of positioning information shall not exceed 60 seconds. Before December 1 this year, platform companies that fail to meet these requirements will be rectified within a time limit until they meet the business license conditions.

　　In addition, since July 1, vehicles with online car rental must apply for transportation licenses. When submitting the pre-audit, they must provide an operation or service agreement signed with the online car rental platform. The online car rental platform should improve the people-vehicle matching system to ensure that the vehicle and driver information match.

　　Driver: You need to pass the exam before you start working.

　　[Financial News]

　　The U.S. economic expectations in 2024 have been greatly raised, and options trading highlights the concern of raising interest rates.

　　Economists have lowered their forecasts for the US recession again, because they expect that a strong job market and strong consumer spending will support stronger economic growth in the short term. Bloomberg’s latest monthly survey of economists shows that the annual growth rate of the US economy is expected to reach 2.1% this year due to the growth of household demand and government expenditure, which is higher than the 1.5% expected last month. Respondents now expect that consumer spending (accounting for two-thirds of GDP) will increase by more than 0.5% each year in the next two years compared with last month’s forecast. Although forecasters generally expect that the American economy will lose some momentum after the major events in 2023, the still strong labor market and the fading inflation continue to support basically stable household demand. Given this continued resilience, respondents now expect the unemployment rate to peak at 4.1% later this year, lower than the 4.2% expected last month. They also predict that by 2026, American employers will add more jobs.

The "end" of the Dragon Boat Festival is the original meaning. In ancient times, May 5th was also called noon, and noon was a sunny day, so the Dragon Boat Festival was also called Duanyang Festival, Duanwu Festival, Chongwu Festival, Tianzhong Festival and Zhengyang Festival.

"Dragon Boat Festival" is the first of the four traditional festivals in China (Spring Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival) to be selected as an intangible festival in the world. Originally, it was a festival for Chinese people to get rid of diseases and prevent epidemics. Later, due to the death of poet Qu Yuan on this day, it became a traditional festival for China people to commemorate Qu Yuan. In some areas, Wu Zixu and Cao E were also commemorated.

The Dragon Boat Festival originated in China, and the culture of the Dragon Boat Festival, which has been continuously developed by the Chinese nation since ancient times, is profound. The customs of the Dragon Boat Festival are quite different in different regions in ancient times. However, with the increase of personnel flow and information exchange, they are gradually converging.

May 5th is the anniversary of Qu Yuan’s death in the river. Therefore, most of the customs of Yichang Dragon Boat Festival are to drive away drugs and diseases, preserve health and prolong life, and commemorate Qu Yuan. According to the records in "Records of Yichang Prefecture and Local Records" in 1866, the fifth year of Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty:

"May 5, hanging YiPu in the door, with Angle of millet, salted eggs phase feed heritage. At noon, drink realgar cinnabar wine, and use Aipu to pour it into male yellow wine, and sprinkle it all over the house walls, so that the clouds will open up snakes and insects. Apply its juice to children’s otorhinology, and the cloud will be poisonous. Catch toads again, put ink into the belly, take them out once they are dry, and smear them with swollen poison. Women use cocoons as tigers and wear mugwort leaves on their heads. It’s a day of dragon boat racing, and Chu customs are the same. On the fifteenth day, it was called Daduanyang, and it also ate corn and drank Pu wine. On the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth days, the dragon boat won the championship, which was different from other counties. "

It can be seen that there were 12 folk customs of the Dragon Boat Festival in ancient Yichang. The Dragon Boat Festival in Yichang inherits the ancient customs today, and some customs have been submerged in the long river of history and are unknown.

Hanging Aipu

In the fifth month of the lunar calendar, at the beginning of midsummer, the sun’s spirit began to flourish, and all the five poisons came out. Yichang people’s custom of hanging mugwort and calamus at home has been inherited to this day.

Both Artemisia argyi and Acorus calamus are commonly used Chinese herbal medicines. Artemisia argyi can dispel cold and remove dampness, warm meridians and stop bleeding, while Acorus calamus can eliminate phlegm, regulate qi and promote blood circulation, invigorate spleen and stomach. Artemisia argyi and Acorus calamus have strange fragrance, which can dispel filth and turbidity, detoxify and drive away evil spirits and prevent diseases.

eat Zongzi

Eating zongzi is the standard of Dragon Boat Festival. The ancient zongzi, also known as horn millet, was made by wrapping the millet into a triangle with bamboo leaves or reed leaves and winding it with colorful threads. Legend has it that the origin of zongzi is related to the memorial to Qu Yuan. People throw zongzi into the river to prevent fish and turtles from eating Qu Yuan who threw themselves into the river, so Yichang people eat zongzi to commemorate Qu Yuan on the Dragon Boat Festival. This custom has always been followed.

The most traditional zongzi in Zigui County, Yichang City, Qu Yuan’s hometown, is red-hearted zongzi. Adding red dates to glutinous rice is called jujube zongzi, which places people’s good wishes of "learning early in school". At present, Zigui County has also produced navel orange dumplings, yellow peach candied dates dumplings and other flavor dumplings with unique local characteristics.

Eat salted eggs

Salted eggs are carefully preserved duck eggs. Zongzi and salted eggs are not only eaten at home, but also gifts for relatives and friends during the Dragon Boat Festival.

"Qu Yuan went to the Miluo River in May, but the natives chased it to Dongting Lake, but the lake was big and the boat was small, so those who didn’t benefit from it sang,’ How can we cross the lake? Because of the drums and drums, it is a game of racing. Its rapidity, singing, shaking land and water, the audience is like a cloud, and the counties are straightforward, while Nanjun is especially prosperous. "

The custom of rowing dragon boats has a long history and a wide range of inheritance. Dragon boat race is generally believed to have originated in memory of Qu Yuan. In ancient Yichang, dragon boat races usually lasted for several days.

Su Shi wrote in a poem:

"Chu people are sad about Qu Yuan, and they have not rested for a thousand years. Where the spirit floats, the father choked. ….. The legacy has become a race, lamenting that Chushan is cracked. "

In Zigui, Qu Yuan’s hometown, dragon boat races are especially admired by people. On May 5, Quyuan threw himself into the river, and his hometown elders sacrificed on the river. Long song evokes spirits, races in a canoe, and shouts loudly, which is very tragic.

Figure/Hubei Daily

Dragon boat race is the soul of the Dragon Boat Festival, and it is the most grand and grand mass activity of the Dragon Boat Festival. The dragon boat race is held in the Yangtze River, and the drums in the river are loud, the river bank is crowded with people, and the whole city is empty, which has become a magnificent scenery of the Dragon Boat Festival in Yichang.

Drink realgar wine

Realgar and cinnabar, both mineral Chinese medicines, are toxic. Realgar is mainly used for eliminating dampness, expelling wind, killing insects and detoxifying, while cinnabar has the effects of clearing away heart-fire, calming the nerves and detoxifying. Realgar cinnabar wine is a medicinal liquor, so it must be prepared very carefully, otherwise it will be easy to be poisoned and worry about your life. The custom of drinking realgar cinnabar wine has been lost, which is probably related to this.

Drink realgar cinnabar wine at noon on Dragon Boat Festival, and choose it at the peak of yang in the day, in order to get the drug into the body, eliminate evil spirits and strengthen the body. Realgar containing arsenic and cinnabar containing mercury were two very mysterious substances in ancient China. Not only does Chinese medicine "fight poison with poison" surprise, but it is also loved by Taoist alchemists, among which cinnabar is the main raw material for alchemy.

Xiaosa courtyard

Soak Artemisia argyi and Acorus calamus in realgar cinnabar wine and sprinkle it all over the corners of indoor doors and windows and the bedside of tables and cabinets to drive away mosquitoes and prevent snakes and scorpions.

Dianzhusha

Apply realgar cinnabar wine to children’s eyebrows, behind their ears, palms and soles, and belly buttons, in order to avoid all kinds of poison.

Wearing a cocoon tiger (Ai Hu)

Women choose yellow new silkworm cocoons, paint them as tigers, decorate them with mugwort leaves, and hang them on their hairpins, so that they can be worn by people of all ages to drive away poison and evil spirits and pray for health and longevity.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ying Shao’s "Customs Tongyi" recorded: "On May 5 th, the life was renewed, and the custom was beneficial to human life."

In ancient Dragon Boat Festival, colorful silk was wrapped around the left arm to avoid ghosts and evil spirits, avoid military disasters (war), get rid of illness and plague, and prolong life, which was called life-prolonging silk. Cocoon tiger, choose cocoon, cocoon can be peeled and stretched continuously; Broken cocoon become a butterfly, life cycle; Being a tiger, a tiger is a king of beasts, which can cure all kinds of poisons. Wearing a cocoon tiger is probably the evolution and extension of the custom of winding silk. Young women wear cocoons and tigers, and they also pray for more children and more happiness. Girls wear cocoon and tiger headdresses, which often show off their ingenuity. Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, there have been many vivid descriptions of women wearing cocoon tigers or Ai Hu in poems.

Sun toad venom ink

Venenum Bufonis ink is an almost lost folk prescription of traditional Chinese medicine, which is mainly used for treating carbuncle, promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, relieving swelling and pain, and clearing away heat and toxic materials. Some elderly people may still remember suffering from mumps or herpes, and they will ask Mr. Xue to dip his brush in ink and paint on the affected area for treatment. The ink used by Mr. Wang is not ordinary ink, but toad venom ink.

On the Dragon Boat Festival, toads (commonly known as toads), which are among the top five poisons, are the most toxic, and making toad venom ink has the strongest medicinal properties. People catch large toads, put ink blocks (referring to Four Treasures of the Study ink, also known as Mo Ding or ink sticks) from their mouths into their bellies, tie them tightly with thread, and hang them to dry. Venenum Bufonis secreted by toad is a precious traditional Chinese medicine. Dry ink block can fully absorb Venenum Bufonis in toad body before it can become Venenum Bufonis ink.

Venenum bufonis ink is a common medicine at home. Due to the large number of toads caught in the Dragon Boat Festival as medicine, the number of toads suddenly decreased, and the folk joked that "toads hide in the Dragon Boat Festival".

Collecting herbs

In Yichang mountain area, there is a custom of collecting herbs and storing them at the Dragon Boat Festival. People think that the medicinal properties of herbs on this day are the best, and the herbs collected with dew are precious.

Dragon boat festival

It is a unique custom in Yichang that the fifth day of May is Xiaoduanyang and the fifteenth day of May is Daduanyang, which has continued to this day.

Before the Dragon Boat Festival, all the girls married in Yichang have to rush back to their parents’ homes for the holidays, which is a characteristic custom, which is called "hiding from the sun" by the people. According to legend, it is to "hide in the afternoon", and May 5 is an evil day, so parents have to take their daughters home to avoid the "evil day".

On the day of Daduanyang on May 15th, besides eating zongzi, every family should drink Pu wine. A large-scale dragon boat race will be held on this day.

Drink pu wine

On the fifth day of May, people brewed Pu wine with fresh calamus, and after ten days of sealed fermentation, they unsealed it and drank it on the day of Daduanyang.

Pu wine is a health-preserving medicinal liquor, which has the effects of eliminating dampness and promoting blood circulation, refreshing and resolving phlegm, improving hearing and eyesight, strengthening body weight and strengthening bones, and can prolong life, which is talked about by the people. In addition, Pu wine is beautiful in color, elegant in aroma and sweet in taste, which is liked by palaces and literati in past dynasties, and there are a lot of ancient poems praising Pu wine. The custom of drinking Pu wine is rare now.

　　[car home’s deep comment] On March 26th, the anniversary of Ding Maoyue’s death, it was appropriate to set up a coupon and open the market. At about 18 o’clock in the afternoon, when most of the autobots got off work, a notice was posted on the website of the Ministry of Finance-Notice on Further Improving the Financial Subsidy Policy for the Promotion and Application of New Energy Vehicles (hereinafter referred to as the Notice or Caijian [2019] No.138). The Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Science and Technology and the National Development and Reform Commission "set up a voucher" together, and set a contract between the central government and automobile manufacturers and consumers of new energy vehicles on the subsidy policy for the promotion and application of new energy vehicles in China in 2019, which also means that the new energy vehicle market in 2019 can finally be opened.

　　"It’s finally out." The author contacted several colleagues in the industry, and the attitude towards this notice was surprisingly consistent. After months of waiting, the industry is more concerned about when the policy will be implemented, rather than the level of subsidies.

● What is "Deep Comment"?

　　《Asked deeply.""is the first program created in car home for users in the industry, written by senior practitioners in the automobile industry, to exclusively analyze/reveal major events in the industry. In addition to the lively appearance, we want to show you the exploration and thinking of the essence, cause and effect and future possibility of things.

　　Current industry commentator-Khufu, an atypical autobot working in an automobile company. Over the past ten years, I have traveled around Industry-University-Research, a city related to the automobile industry, and I have my own understanding and thinking about the industry, learning from each other through the platform of "car home".

Read the full text in 30 seconds:

　　● In 2019, the state subsidy was less than the legend, and the threshold for obtaining subsidies was higher; Local subsidies are directly suspended.
　　● This time, the government’s expectation management has been done very well. What the industry practitioners are most concerned about is not the amount of subsidies, but when the policies will be released.
　　● For the industry, a sharp decline in subsidies is a powerful medicine to screen out strong multinational companies that are about to enter in a big way.

First, the late subsidy policy in 2019

　　Let’s turn the clock back to February 12, 2018. On that day, the four ministries and commissions issued the subsidy policy for the promotion and application of new energy vehicles in 2018. It is clearly stated in the document that "relevant ministries and commissions will study and release the thresholds of key technical indicators in 2019 and 2020 in advance according to factors such as technological progress, industrial development and scale of popularization and application of new energy vehicles".

"Screenshot of Notice of New Energy Subsidy Policy in 2018"

　　This sentence brings hope to the relevant practitioners: in 2019, the business policies of various enterprises are expected to be formulated in advance, so it is not necessary to "look forward to it" as in 2018. But what I didn’t expect was that the release date of the subsidy policy for the new year came late and was not released until the end of March. However, it is understandable that, after all, it is not an easy task to squeeze tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of yuan from the central budget to subsidize the promotion and application of new energy vehicles under the background that the country is facing "increasing downward pressure on the economy".

　　To put it simply, the core content of the subsidy policy in 2019 can be summarized as the following three points: the amount of state subsidies is less, the technical threshold is higher, and the land subsidies are forcibly cancelled.

　　1. "The amount of state subsidy is less" means that compared with the subsidy standard in 2018 and previous years, this year’s standard has dropped the most. For example, the subsidy for electric passenger cars decreased by 47% from the lowest to 100% from the previous year. And in the case of non-personal purchases, the national subsidy standard will be further discounted by 30%.

　　2. "Higher technical threshold" includes three aspects. Take passenger cars as an example. First, the minimum requirement for cruising range is increased from 150km in 2018 to 250km；. Second, the starting value of battery energy density requirement increased from 105Wh/kg last year to 125 Wh/kg; The third is to tighten the energy consumption of the whole vehicle, and it needs to be more than 10% higher than the threshold set by the 2018 policy before it can be subsidized.

　　3. "Compulsory cancellation of land compensation" means that after June 26, local governments are not allowed to give users subsidies for the purchase of new energy vehicles (except buses and fuel cell vehicles), otherwise the central government will make corresponding deductions from relevant financial subsidies.

　　Car home has a special article on the analysis of the policy provisions in 2019, so I won’t go into details here. For interested readers, please click "Quick Review: Seven Major Changes to Interpret the New Direction of Subsidy Policy in 2019".

Second, expectations are managed in place, and the focus of enterprises is no longer more money than less money.

　　Although the subsidy in 2019 was much less than last year, a common feeling of Khufu when communicating with his peers was: "It was finally introduced." The reason for this attitude is that after months of waiting, people are more concerned about when the policy will be introduced than whether the subsidy amount is high or low. To use the popular expression some time ago, it is that the four ministries and commissions, including the Ministry of Finance, have put the "expected value management" of the automobile industry in place this time.

　　As mentioned above, the policy of 2018 stated that the policy of 2019 would be introduced in that year, but until December of that year, the leaders of the Ministry of Finance were still leading a team to the automobile enterprises to investigate how to formulate the subsidy policy. At that time, the industry practitioners had roughly predicted that the business policy of the new energy vehicles of this enterprise would cross the river by feeling the stones again in 2019.

　　When selling new energy vehicles at the terminal, it is a great trouble to be unable to predict the government subsidy policy. Because it is impossible to determine the subsidy policy, how much subsidy should be paid in advance in sales invoicing has become a problem that drives people in sales and finance departments crazy. From the perspective of risk control, it should be opened less, but users will not recognize this practice; If you invoice with reference to the national subsidy standard in 2018, you will face tens of thousands of yuan in profit losses. For example, a pure electric passenger car with a cruising range of 200km can get a state subsidy of 24,000 yuan last year. However, according to the regulations of the new subsidy policy in 2019, if it is licensed within three months from March 26, it can only get a state subsidy of 2,400 yuan. There is a price difference of more than 20 thousand every day.

　　On the other hand, considering that a new model should be tested at least nine months in advance before the announcement, it is difficult for automakers to determine the development and launch plan of new products this year due to the delay in the release of subsidy policy in 2019. After all, if a new car is launched, it will be excluded from the scope of national compensation as soon as it comes into the market, and the loss may only be borne by a local automobile manufacturer like FAW-Volkswagen. The battery energy density of the new electric vehicle released by the company on March 25th is 121 Wh/kg, which is "perfectly" excluded by this year’s new policy.

"The battery energy densities of the newly released Bora Pure Electric, Golf Pure Electric and LaVida Electric versions are below the subsidy standard"

　　Therefore, for industry practitioners, it is actually more important to avoid this uncertainty: only when the policy is determined can the enterprise operation strategy and strategy be determined accordingly. From January to the first month, the subsidy policy was delayed in 2019, which not only made everyone feel uncomfortable, but also objectively reduced the expectations of the industry, making everyone’s focus change from "how much subsidy this year" to "when will the policy be introduced?"

Third, a sharp slope retreat is a powerful medicine, but the effect may not be bad.

　　What does such a large subsidy retreat mean for the whole industry? In my opinion, it is more like a dose of croton. This is an analogy that is not necessarily appropriate but vivid.

　　With the downward adjustment of subsidies, the profits of all competing automobile manufacturers will inevitably be affected, but its effect on each company is not the same-strong, this laxative can help him defeat the fire, clear his intestines, and then go into battle lightly; However, those with poor physical fitness, ranging from weak legs, can’t keep up with the competitive team, and even plummet, directly withdraw from the competition.

　　The reason for this analogy is that, in my opinion, China’s local new energy automobile industry has gone through a stage of barbaric growth, and it must be adjusted on the supply side in order to compete with multinational new energy vehicles that are about to fully enter the China market.

　　First of all, the amount of state subsidies is expected to exceed 100 billion yuan, and there are areas that become financial burdens.

　　After 10 years of development, the sales volume of new energy vehicles in China reached 1.256 million last year, accounting for 3.8% of the total market. In this case, the purchase subsidy will be a heavy burden on the central finance. In 2017, the subsidy for vehicles is currently only 9.084 billion, and will be publicized in batches in the future. In 2016, the number of approved subsidies reached 346,400, totaling about 50.321 billion yuan. Previous information showed that from 2009 to the end of 2015, the central government arranged a total of 33.435 billion yuan of subsidy funds, and after six public announcements, the vehicle subsidy in 2015 increased by 3 billion yuan. So far, about 95.84 billion central subsidies for new energy vehicles have been cleared or distributed.

　　Therefore, it is imperative to reduce the total amount of state subsidies. In addition, in the practice of popularization and application in recent years, there are more and more local governments whose financial resources are difficult to support the purchase subsidies. They either do not introduce subsidy policies or set explicit or implicit terms to implement total control.

　　Secondly, China’s new energy automobile industry chain has basically taken shape, and what we need to do at this stage is to get rid of the weeds and save the cyanine.

　　As a strategic emerging industry selected by our government, new energy vehicles have become a key investment field. Statistics from China Automotive Technology Research Center show that in 2017, the investment in the whole industrial chain of the automobile industry reached 1.31 trillion yuan, and the total investment in manufacturing industry in that year was 6.76% of the national 19.36 trillion yuan. Among them, the total investment of investors from all walks of life in the industrial chain of new energy vehicles reached more than 740 billion yuan, which historically exceeded the total investment in the industrial chain of traditional fuel vehicles (about 570 billion yuan). This investment boom continues. According to the statistics of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, by the end of 2018, the accumulated investment in the entire industrial chain of new energy vehicles exceeded 2 trillion yuan. Massive funds, reflected in the vehicle production capacity, are up to 9 million new production capacity. As far as the demand at this stage is concerned, this is indeed too much, and it is only a matter of time before the price war breaks out. Reducing subsidies will accelerate this process and let those enterprises with insufficient competitiveness withdraw from the market as soon as possible. Because there are more important things waiting for us in 2020 for the whole industry.

"Source: Blue Book of New Energy Vehicles (2017)"

　　Third, the window of industry development is about to close, and there may be opportunities, but they are reserved for prepared players.

　　In the past six months, two events —— the start-up of SAIC Volkswagen Anting New Energy Automobile Factory (October 2018) and Tesla Lingang Factory (January 2019) —— have profoundly affected the historical process of the development of China’s new energy automobile industry. This can be regarded as a landmark event for multinational companies to formally enter the new energy vehicle market in China. These two companies, one of which is the leader in the mass-produced fuel automobile market, and the other is lonely in the pure electric luxury car market, have announced to the local automobile enterprises in China by investing huge sums of money to build factories: "We are serious about promoting new energy vehicles in China! "(Feng Sihan, CEO of Volkswagen passenger car brand China)

　　Whether we are willing to admit it or not, the day when local new energy automobile companies begin to confront multinational companies is not in 2020 or in 2021; The specific year depends on the construction speed of their new energy automobile factories in China. In this case,For local new energy automobile enterprises, if they want to compete with multinational companies, they must gain a foothold this year and next, or build a moat (to make the brand good enough) or achieve scale effect (to make the cost low enough). No matter what kind of development path, it is obviously difficult for those automakers who still expect subsidies to make profits.

　　In short, the sharp decline in the national subsidy standard in 2019 is not only a rational choice made by the central government based on the current financial situation, but also a measure to force China’s new energy automobile industry to carry out supply-side reform. At the time when multinational companies are about to enter in a big way, if there are some bubbles in our new energy automobile industry, it is a useful choice to puncture it by reducing subsidies.

　　Last year, Beijing ushered in the closing year of the first phase of the national "Atmosphere Ten". What is the effect of five-year atmospheric control? Yesterday morning, the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau held a press conference to take stock of the air quality improvement and air control measures in 2017 and the past five years.

　　(Reporter Wang Bin) The Beijing Youth Daily reporter learned from the press conference held by the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau that the average annual concentration of PM2.5 in this city was 58 μ g/m3 last year, which was 20.5% lower than that of the previous year, and the national "Ten Atmospheric Articles" mission goal was achieved. Excellent days increased by 28 days compared with 2016, reaching 226 days; The number of heavy pollution days decreased by 16 days to 23 days. In addition, in the past five years, the average annual concentration of major pollutants in Beijing has dropped significantly, especially sulfur dioxide. In 2017, the average annual concentration of sulfur dioxide dropped to single digits for the first time, only 8 μ g/m3.

　　Last year, the heavy pollution day was only 23 days.

　　According to the relevant person in charge of the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, in 2017, the average concentration of PM2.5 in Beijing was 58 μ g/m3, down 20.5% from the previous year; It decreased by 35.6% compared with 2013. In addition, the average annual concentrations of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and PM10 were 8 μ g/m3, 46 μ g/m3 and 84 μ g/m3, respectively, which were all improved year-on-year, and decreased by 20.0%, 4.2% and 8.7% respectively compared with 2016.

　　Among the above four main pollutants, the average annual concentration of sulfur dioxide has reached and is far superior to the national standard, but the average annual concentrations of nitrogen dioxide, PM10 and PM2.5 still exceed the national standard. Especially PM2.5, compared with the national standard of 35 μ g/m3, exceeded the standard by 66%. This shows that the improvement of air quality in Beijing will still be a long-term process.

　　In 2017, the number of days with excellent air quality in Beijing was 226, an increase of 28 days over 2016; The heavy pollution day was 23 days, 16 days less than that in 2016.

　　The number of days when air quality reaches the standard will increase by 50 days in five years.

　　Last year, it was the closing year of the first phase of the national "Atmosphere Ten". Compared with 2013, the average annual concentration of major pollutants in Beijing decreased significantly. Sulfur dioxide, the most obvious decline, dropped by 70.4%. Last year, the average annual concentration dropped to single digits for the first time, only 8 micrograms per cubic meter. Followed by PM2.5, with a decrease of 35.6%.

　　According to the relevant person in charge of the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, from 2013 to 2017, the number of days of air quality compliance in Beijing increased significantly, with 176 days in 2013 and 226 days in 2017, an increase of 50 days. Among them, the number of first-class excellent days increased from 41 days in 2013 to 66 days in 2017, an increase of 25 days.

　　From 2013 to 2017, the days of heavy air pollution in Beijing were 58, 47, 46, 39 and 23 days respectively, showing the characteristics of decreasing year by year; The number of days of heavy pollution decreased by 35 days in five years, and the incidence of heavy pollution decreased significantly.

　　In the past five years, the concentration of PM2.5 in various regions of Beijing has been decreasing year by year, and the decline is significant. In 2017, the concentration level in each region was significantly lower than that in 2013, and the overall spatial distribution was still characterized by high in the south and low in the north, but the concentration gap between the north and the south decreased.

　　In 2020, the average annual concentration of PM2.5 will drop to 56 micrograms.

　　What is the goal of improving air quality in Beijing in the future? Xiang Li, director of the Atmospheric Environment Management Office of the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, said that in the next stage, the Beijing Municipal Association will continue to improve air quality. The new Beijing Urban Master Plan clearly states that under normal meteorological conditions, the average annual concentration of PM2.5 in Beijing will drop to 56 μ g/m3 by 2020, and the atmospheric environmental quality will be fundamentally improved by 2035. "This has actually given a clear plan for the goal and roadmap of atmospheric prevention and control, and the next stage will strive to achieve this goal."

　　The overall improvement of the atmosphere is the result of "human efforts"

　　Controlling air pollution is the result of "people work hard and heaven helps". Liu Baoxian, deputy director of Beijing Environmental Monitoring Center, revealed yesterday that in 2017, the frequency of inversion was low, the air was dry and the frequency of north wind was high. In 2017, Beijing’s air quality improved significantly under the combined effect of continuous air pollution reduction and superimposed favorable atmospheric diffusion conditions.

　　So, how much power did "God help" contribute? Wang Shuxiao, a professor at Tsinghua University Institute of Environment, said that after preliminary assessment, the meteorological conditions have not changed much in the past five years. Take 2017 as an example. Last year, the meteorological conditions were more helpful in the fourth quarter. Cold air activities were frequent and the temperature was low. Four heavy air pollution processes occurred, resulting in five days of heavy pollution, which was significantly lower than the previous two years. However, the meteorological conditions in January and February 2017 were not conducive to the spread of pollution. "So overall, the meteorological conditions in each month of 2017 will be offset. In the case of slightly favorable meteorological conditions, the overall situation is ‘ People work hard ’ The result. However, the impact of meteorological conditions on air quality is complicated, and we are still continuing to evaluate it. " Wang Shuxiao said.

　　Yu Jianhua, chief engineer of Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau, said that the focus of "people’s efforts" is emission reduction, and the role of "God’s help" is diffusion. The intensity of "human efforts" can be quantified, but "God helps" can’t be planned. In any case, people will keep trying.

　　A new round of PM2.5 source analysis is underway.

　　In 2014, Beijing released the source analysis of atmospheric PM2.5 from 2012 to 2013. The main components of PM2.5 in the air are organic matter, nitrate, sulfate, crustal elements and ammonium salts, accounting for 26%, 17%, 16%, 12% and 11% of the mass concentration of PM2.5 respectively. Through model analysis, among the sources of PM2.5 in the whole year, the regional transmission contribution accounts for about 28% to 36%, and the local pollution emission contribution accounts for 64% to 72%. Among the local pollution contributions, motor vehicles, coal burning, industrial production and dust are the main sources.

　　In the past five years, based on this, the city has accurately controlled air pollution through emission reduction measures such as clean energy transformation of coal-fired boilers, loose coal treatment in rural areas, adjustment and withdrawal of enterprises that do not meet the functional orientation and pollution of the capital, and scrapping and transferring old motor vehicles. Practice has proved that the source analysis of PM2.5 is a powerful means to improve air quality.

　　In the past five years, the structure of atmospheric energy has been constantly changing, and pollutants have improved significantly. Correspondingly, the source of PM2.5 has also changed. In the future, will Beijing study and release a new source analysis of PM2.5? Liu Baoxian, deputy director of the Municipal Environmental Monitoring Center, said that a new round of source analysis is also in full swing, and relevant results will be released later.

Recently, according to relevant reports, Xiaomi has comprehensively reformed its ecological chain model and launched a new organizational change measure called "SAN hierarchical management strategy". This strategy aims to divide many ecological chain categories through three classification logics: S, A and N. Under the implementation of this strategy, class S products will become one of the core ecological chain categories in the future, including speakers, routers, door locks and cameras.

Prior to this, Xiaomi’s IoT business was divided into seven sub-divisions according to product categories: intelligent connection, cleaning appliances, IoT products, kitchen and bathroom appliances, healthy travel, digital consumption and environmental appliances. However, in this reform, these business divisions have been reduced to three: S-level, A-level and N-level. Among them, the S-class represents the categories that may reach the market scale of 5-10 billion yuan in the future, and they will be jointly responsible by Xiaomi Eco-chain Company and its partners; Grade A represents categories that may exceed 1 billion yuan in the future, such as air fryers, rice cookers, water purifiers and kitchen utensils. These products operate in the same way as before, but there will be no major adjustments; The N-level represents products with a scale of less than 1 billion yuan in the future. Xiaomi will focus on quality and relax the control over pricing system and project standards, so that eco-chain companies can have more autonomy.

The core goal of this reform is to achieve "heavy weight, light weight", that is, to give priority to those products with great market potential in the product line, and at the same time to relax the control of those products with small scale and limited potential. This is undoubtedly an important adjustment and optimization of the Xiaomi ecological chain model.

　　Xinhua News Agency, Washington, January 21st(International observation) The candidates for Biden’s government team are meaningful.

　　After US President Joe Biden officially took office on the 20th, he has introduced a number of administrative measures, including the return of the United States to the Paris Agreement on climate change. The Senate controlled by his Democratic Party is also actively promoting the confirmation process required for relevant cabinet members before taking office.

　　The United States, which Biden inherited, is deeply mired in multiple crises: there are more than 400,000 deaths in COVID-19, unprecedented political tears, weak economic employment and high debt risk. In this context, it is particularly important for the president to be in power. Some analysts pointed out that the main features of Biden’s cabinet nomination are the activation of "Washington Old Man" in order to ensure the rapid operation of the government, the diversification of personnel background in order to achieve political unity, and the reward for running for "hero".

　　Who is in love?

　　In addition to the vice president, the US cabinet also includes 15 heads of administrative departments, including the Secretary of State, the Minister of Finance, the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Justice. In addition, the White House Chief of Staff, Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs, Director of National Intelligence, US Trade Representative and other important positions have cabinet level. Biden completed the nomination or direct appointment of all cabinet and cabinet-level officials before taking office, and the Senate is now beginning to review and vote on the nominees who need to be approved by him. On the 20th, the Senate approved Averil Haynes as the Director of National Intelligence, the first cabinet-level official in Biden’s administration confirmed by the Senate.

　　Biden’s important cabinet nominations include: former Deputy Secretary of State Anthony Blinken as Secretary of State, former Federal Reserve Chairman janet yellen as Treasury Secretary, retired four-star general lloyd austin as Defense Secretary, and Chief Justice merrick Garland as Attorney General. These four positions are traditionally called the "four big members" of the cabinet and have higher importance and exposure.

　　Among several cabinet-level positions concerned by the outside world, Biden appointed Ron Klein, who had served as his campaign adviser, as the White House chief of staff; Jack sullivan, the vice president’s national security adviser when he was the vice president of the Obama administration, was appointed as the president’s national security assistant; Nominated Qi Dai, chief trade adviser of the House of Representatives Ways and Means Committee, as the US trade representative.

　　In addition, Biden also made some "addition and subtraction" for cabinet-level positions. For example, he established the post of presidential special envoy on climate issues and appointed former Secretary of State John Kerry as the post, and re-promoted the permanent representative of the United States to the United Nations to the cabinet level, but the director of the Central Intelligence Agency no longer held the cabinet level.

　　Quite purposeful

　　Some analysts pointed out that many of Biden’s cabinet members were senior officials during the administration of former President Obama, and some even served as the top or second-in-command of federal government agencies. The editorial of USA Today said that many of Biden’s cabinet members are "old rivers and lakes" in Washington. They have rich policy experience and are familiar with the operation of the federal government. The United States is now facing multiple problems, and federal government agencies need these "skilled hands" to take over to bring more stability.

　　At the same time, it is noteworthy that Biden’s cabinet candidates also paid attention to balancing gender, race and other factors, and did not forget to support the younger generation and reward the "heroes" in the election. If all the candidates are successfully approved by the Senate, a series of firsts will be created: the first aboriginal cabinet minister, the first female finance minister, the first African-American defense minister, the first Hispanic health and human services minister, the first immigrant-born homeland security minister, and the first Asian-American trade representative. It is worth mentioning that Kamala Harris has made history as the first female vice president of the United States.

　　Biden also nominated Pete Buttigieg, former mayor of South Bend, Indiana and former Democratic presidential candidate, as the transportation secretary. American media believe that 39-year-old Buttigieg is one of the new political stars of the Democratic Party, and it is only a matter of time before he runs for the presidency again. Biden intends to help him "brush up his resume".

　　In addition, almost all the "heroes" of Biden’s campaign team were entrusted with important positions, which is also the usual practice for the new president to select and employ people.

　　Face obstacles

　　At present, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party each hold 50 seats in the Senate, and the Vice President, as the Speaker of the Senate, holds the decisive vote. This means that, not surprisingly, Biden’s cabinet nomination will be passed more smoothly in the Senate.

　　However, some analysts pointed out that the situation is slightly complicated. At present, the Senate should not only begin to hear the impeachment case against former President Trump after he leaves office, but also consider a new round of economic aid plan for the COVID-19 epidemic. These time-consuming and labor-intensive agendas may affect the progress of the Senate’s deliberation and approval of cabinet nominations.

　　The US "Political News" published an article saying that considering the partisan disputes caused by the impeachment case, it is not easy for Biden’s cabinet candidates to get approval quickly. Biden expressed concern about this and called on the Senate to "work in parallel", with half a day being devoted to hearing impeachment cases, and the other half being devoted to reviewing and approving cabinet members and promoting a new round of economic aid plan for the COVID-19 epidemic.

　　At present, Biden has appointed a series of acting officials to temporarily take charge of important federal government agencies until the Senate approves the official candidates, so as to try to ensure the normal operation of government departments during the transition period.
