"Brave" topped "Star Wars" and "Former 3" at the box office, ranking eighth in film history.

        Special feature of 1905 film network With the momentum of (hereinafter referred to as "Former 3") slowing down, the popularity of the mainland film market cooled slightly in the second week of 2018 (from January 8 to January 14, 2018), and the total box office closed at around 1.1 billion, down 600 million from the previous month, which was very close to the decrease in the box office of "Former 3" compared with last week’s data.

        However, Previous 3, which has been released for three weeks, still topped the weekly list with a strength of about 460 million, and the cumulative box office has exceeded 1.76 billion. This week, the key new films were ranked second and third. The former won the weekend box office championship with 257 million yuan, and the latter gained nearly 140 million yuan in three days after its release.

"Former 3" broke the 1.7 billion movie history, and the eighth "Don’t Ask West East" broke the word-of-mouth box office.


Ask nothing about the west and the east

        Compared with last week’s market performance, this week’s box office trend of "Former 3" has returned to a stable level after a slight cooling. However, as an "old film" that has been released for three weeks, "Former 3" still maintained a strong performance of contributing nearly 70% of the box office output with a film schedule of about 40% in the first four working days of this week, and finally accounted for 460 million. Through a comprehensive re-release, the film accurately positioned the aesthetic orientation of the audience in third-and fourth-tier cities, the post-1995 group and some female consumers, which made "Former 3" an eye-catching achievement today. At present, the cumulative box office of the film has exceeded 1.76 billion, and it has successfully entered the TOP10 of the mainland film history, ranking eighth.

        This week, another high-profile Chinese-language film, No Questions, West and East, was opened. Although it has been six years since the announcement of the filming to the release, the super-strong lineup composed of Zhang Ziyi, Huang Xiaoming, Zhang zhen and Wang Leehom still makes people look forward to it. Based on the time clues of the history of Tsinghua University, this paper tells the life trajectories of different characters in different time and space, and reveals and sublimates the theme of good and evil and human nature. The story style of "Nothing to Ask about the West" is full of literary flavor.

        On the first day of painting, the film ranked third in the box office list, and Douban scored 6.2. With the widespread discussion and word-of-mouth fermentation after the film was released, the score gradually rose to 7.4 points, ranking among the top films released in the same period. This change is also reflected in the first weekend box office performance of "Don’t Ask West East": the film finally attracted nearly 140 million yuan in three days, and the box office in a single day rose from the initial 35 million to 53 million.

The Brave Game attracted 250 million yuan in the first three days of the week, and then pressed Star Wars 8 in the mainland market.


Brave Game: Battle of the Jungle

        As a classic work, The Brave Game: The Battle of the Jungle (hereinafter referred to as the Brave Game) is undoubtedly a great success. Previously, the film has taken the lead in painting in North America and many other countries and regions, and both box office and word-of-mouth have achieved a double harvest. In the face of its strong rival Star Wars: The Last Jedi (hereinafter referred to as Star Wars 8), The Brave Game has achieved counter-attacks in many major ticket warehouses around the world.

        Coming to the mainland market is no exception: Star Wars 8, which just landed in the mainland cinema last week, did not have much room to play under the strong suppression of Previous 3, and its painting performance even set the worst result in this series in recent years. In addition, China audiences don’t have many "Star Wars" series complexes. Therefore, after the next week, even if the momentum of "Previous 3" slows down, Star Wars 8 has no improvement. At present, the cumulative box office has just passed 250 million, and it is expected that the total box office will hardly break through the 300 million mark.

        On the other hand, "The Brave Game" occupied the first place in the single-day box office list after it was released on Friday. On the first day, it attracted nearly 78 million yuan (including zero point field), broke through 100 million yuan in a single day the next day, and recorded about 80 million yuan on Sunday. Only counting the box office of the first 3-day weekend, the 257 million Brave Game has surpassed its biggest rival, Star Wars 8, in the mainland market. At present, audience ratings of Douban, Cat’s Eye and Taobao Film are higher than the latter, and the final box office is expected to be higher than 500 million.

Week 3: Li Bingbing’s return to the tomb was touched.

        There are many kinds of film works that will meet the mainland audience in the third week of 2018, and there are many excellent works with high reputation.

        In 1980s, The True Color of Heroes, written by Chow Yun Fat and Leslie Cheung, not only made Hong Kong films an eternal classic, but also became a memory in the hearts of a generation. Now, this work has been restarted by director Sheng Ding again, and will be performed by Wang Kai, Ray Ma and Darren Wang in a new era. Will it satisfy the original fans? The answer will be found on January 18th. Li Bingbing, who hasn’t released a new film for a long time, this time cooperated with Chun Wu, the "frozen age male god", to bring a co-production film, which tells the thrilling exploration of the mysterious underground world by a professional search and rescue team with the ancient tomb as the background. The film will land in the mainland cinema on January 19th.

        In terms of imported films, Aamir Hussain Khan, who just brought Indian films into the mainland audience’s field of vision with "Wrestling Dad" in 2017, completed an inspirational film with "Daughter". Only this time, the Olympic wrestling platform became the stage of singing contest. It remains to be seen whether Aamir Hussain Khan, who has turned into a "superstar", can be moved again. On the same day as Mysterious Superstar was released on January 19th, there was another warm-hearted work, Miracle Boy. The film has gained a high reputation since it was previously opened in North America. The experience of Ogi, a deformed boy, entering the society for the first time not only touched the people around him, but also taught everyone how to grow up.

Authoritative Interpretation: Adhering to the People First, Practicing the Service Purpose, Building a Digital Government with Two-way Empowerment of System and Technology

Editor’s Note: A few days ago, the State Council issued "Guiding Opinions on Strengthening the Construction of Digital Government" (hereinafter referred to as "Guiding Opinions"), making arrangements for actively adapting to the trend of economic and social digital transformation, fully releasing the dividend of digital development, and creating a new situation of digital government construction in an all-round way. In order to further publicize the significance, core value and implementation key of digital government construction, People’s Daily Online launched a series of authoritative interpretation manuscripts from now on. In this issue, Cui Shuqiang, member of the Standing Committee of Beijing Municipal Committee, executive deputy mayor, deputy secretary of the party group of the municipal government and vice chairman of the CPPCC, published the article "Adhering to the People First, Practicing the Service Purpose System and Building a Two-way Empowering Digital Government with Technology".
Adhere to the leadership of party building and always uphold and strengthen the party’s overall leadership over the construction of digital government.
Adhere to the overall coordination, strengthen the top-level design and work coordination of digital government construction … To help the transformation of government functions through digital reform, we must adhere to the overall layout, break down the barriers between regions and departments from the top-level design, and adhere to "one map planning, integrated deployment, and one chess game promotion" to form a joint effort of all parties.
Adhere to the people-centered development thought and better meet the urgent needs of the people for a better life.
Adhere to the system concept and build an interconnected, intensive and efficient digital government platform system … In accordance with the principle of intelligent and intensive, we should strengthen the overall management and scheduling of basic resource services and the intensive construction and sharing of common application capabilities, and integrate and build a reasonable, interconnected, intensive, efficient, safe and controllable digital government platform support system.
Adhere to data empowerment and regard data security as the "lifeline" of digital government.
On April 19th, the 25th meeting of the Central Committee for Comprehensively Deepening Reform deliberated and adopted the Guiding Opinions on Strengthening the Construction of Digital Government (hereinafter referred to as the Guiding Opinions). When presiding over the meeting, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that it is necessary to fully implement the strategy of strengthening the country through the network, widely apply digital technology to government management services, promote the digital and intelligent operation of the government, and provide strong support for promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. Recently, the "Guiding Opinions" was officially issued by the State Council. The publication of the document indicates that China’s digital government construction has a master plan, a general strategy and a road map, and has embarked on the fast lane of reform and development.
In recent years, Beijing has conscientiously implemented the work arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council. Under the strong leadership of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, around the digital transformation of the government, with the goal of improving the sense of gain of the enterprise masses, it has continuously improved the top-level design of the digital government and accelerated the construction of digital government with digital services, digital supervision and digital business as the core. It has achieved remarkable results in serving the high-quality development of the capital, optimizing the business environment and improving the efficiency of government affairs. The satisfaction, sense of gain and happiness of the enterprise masses have been significantly improved. Below, I will talk about the knowledge and understanding of digital government construction from five aspects.
First, adhere to the leadership of party building, and always uphold and strengthen the party’s overall leadership over the construction of digital government.
"Party, government, military and civilian studies, east, west, north and south, the party is leading everything". The leadership of the party is the fundamental guarantee for doing all the work well. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has made a series of major arrangements around the implementation of the strategy of strengthening the country by network and the strategy of big data, and made new progress in all aspects. The Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee clearly proposed to implement the strategy of strengthening the country by network and the national big data strategy, and the 19th CPC National Congress proposed to build a strong country by network, a digital China and a smart society. In the 14th Five-Year Plan, a separate chapter on "Improving the level of digital government construction" was set up, which further clarified the task of digital government construction. Accelerating the construction of digital government is an important starting point for thoroughly implementing the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, building a network power, a digital China and a smart society, and is also an important engine and urgent need for comprehensively modernizing the national governance system and governance capacity and building a service-oriented government that people are satisfied with. At present, the construction of digital government has entered a period of all-round acceleration. We must give full play to the leading core role of the Party in taking the overall situation into account and coordinating all parties, and stick to and strengthen the Party’s all-round leadership throughout all fields and links in the construction of digital government. Under the unified leadership of the Party Committee, governments at all levels should thoroughly study and implement the spirit of the important speech of the Supreme Leader General Secretary on the construction of digital government, fulfill the main responsibility of the construction of digital government, carry out all the decisions and arrangements of the central government to the letter, plan and implement all the tasks of the construction of digital government, and ensure that the reform is striding forward in the right direction. Secretary Cai Qi has repeatedly stressed that it is necessary to strengthen the construction of digital government.Let the people run less errands and run more data, and make clear arrangements for formulating and implementing smart city actions, building a digital government, a digital twin city, and promoting digital transformation after receiving complaints. Mayor Chen Jining made several special dispatches, and promoted the establishment of the city’s leading group for big data work, which he personally chaired, fully implemented the national big data strategy and strengthened the requirements of informatization work, timely studied and solved major problems affecting the construction of digital government, and ensured the systematic, all-round and high-standard promotion of all work in the construction of digital government.
Second, adhere to the overall coordination and strengthen the top-level design and work coordination of digital government construction
The construction of digital government is an overall requirement and a strategic move, and it is a systematic project to promote the government’s administrative operation from a fragmented and closed structure to an open, collaborative and cooperative one. To help the transformation of government functions with digital reform, we must adhere to the overall layout, break the barriers between regions and departments from the top-level design, and adhere to "one map planning, integrated deployment, and a chess game" to form a joint effort of all parties. In response to the requirements of the Guiding Opinions, all localities should strengthen unified leadership over the construction of digital government and list it as the "number one" project. Starting from the height of overall planning, they should formulate plans and top-level designs, improve supporting systems and working mechanisms, clarify the promotion path, provide solid guarantees, and ensure scientific, efficient, solid and powerful organization and promotion. In recent years, under the unified leadership of the Municipal Big Data Work Promotion Group, Beijing has adhered to the idea of promoting overall coordination. Planning documents and implementation plans at different levels, such as the Action Plan for the Development of Smart Cities in Beijing during the Tenth Five-Year Plan, the Action Plan for the Construction of Digital Government in Beijing (2021-2022), the Implementation Plan for Digital Services in Beijing, and the Work Plan for Innovating and Strengthening the Supervision after the Event and Building an Integrated Comprehensive Supervision System in Beijing, have been formulated successively. It also focuses on digital reform tasks in areas closely related to corporate satisfaction, such as government services, market supervision and law enforcement, and business environment reform. It has set up a special digital government work class and set up a professional operation company, forming a work pattern with overall layout, urgent need priority, commonality and overall planning.Comprehensively strengthen the overall planning and work coordination across departments, levels and fields. For example, the construction of digital services is guided by the "one thing" from the user’s perspective, focusing on the whole life cycle of individuals and enterprises, comprehensively sorting out the policies, matters, processes and handling channels involved in the scene, strengthening the support of technology empowerment and digitalization, and creating an integrated service of "one notification, one application form, one acceptance and one communication" through measures such as departmental collaboration, policy collection, process reengineering and data sharing. The construction of digital supervision is the first in China to establish a "6+4" integrated supervision system after the event. Six supervision methods, including risk supervision, credit supervision, classification supervision, science and technology supervision, collaborative supervision and co-governance supervision, are used to implement scene-based comprehensive supervision in 11 fields such as catering, medical care and pension. Digital business construction promotes the closed-loop management of the whole process of urban two-level reform tasks, from online distribution, handling, supervision, statistics, to "last mile" monitoring and evaluation, and realizes the coordinated promotion of reform tasks.
Third, adhere to the people-centered development thought and better meet the urgent needs of the people for a better life.
"Satisfying people’s yearning for a better life should be the starting point and the end result of digital government construction". This argument clearly shows that the construction of digital government is an important project that takes the people as the center and starts from the needs of the people to provide better services for the people. Therefore, when promoting the construction of digital government, all localities should firmly establish the people-centered working concept, and take better meeting the people’s urgent needs for a better life as the core goal and the first priority of digital government construction. In the process of promoting the construction of digital government, Beijing has firmly grasped the "bull’s nose" of serving the people, and widely applied various digital technologies such as blockchain, artificial intelligence and big data in the fields of government services, public services, supervision and law enforcement, business environment, and handling complaints immediately, and comprehensively promoted the digitalization and intelligence of government operation mode, business process and service model, effectively promoted the quality change, efficiency change and power change of administrative management and service, and promoted the government reform decision to be more scientific, powerful and dynamic.
Digital services have been strengthened, and an online government service system covering four levels has been built, with a total number of online users reaching more than 39.7 million. Except for special circumstances such as confidentiality, all government service matters should be handled on the municipal government service network, and 97.98% of the matters can be handled online. More than 1,100 matters can be handled in four mobile channels, and more than 230 services can be handled nearby on 2,832 self-service terminals. 116 items and 142 items of high-frequency services have been run nationwide, and 242 items of "Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei+Xiong ‘an" have been run in four places. Personalized services such as guided service guide, online guidance and user space have been continuously improved, and the integrated service experience represented by "online service, handheld service, self-service, intelligent service and inter-provincial service" has been continuously optimized, which has significantly improved the service ability and service efficiency of convenience and enterprises.
Strengthen digital supervision, explore the supervision of "one code co-governance", integrate Beijing city code with electronic business license enterprise identity code, and support the application of enterprises, regulators and other parties. By scanning the code, enterprises can receive the "compliance manual" pushed by the direction, carry out compliance self-inspection against it, and promote the autonomy of market entities; The supervision end can realize "code scanning and inspection according to the single sheet", view the information of the inspection object in real time, and implement the closed-loop inspection process against the inspection list to realize full transparency of the supervision process.
Strengthen digital business, build a three-level unified service package work platform for cities, districts and streets (towns), and form a working mode of "unification, separation and coordination", timely grasp the development situation of key enterprises and key industries, accurately judge the development trend, provide more accurate and precise services for enterprises, and help high-quality economic development. At present, it has supported the demand docking service of nearly 10,000 enterprises in the city, and provided the closed-loop management of the whole process of demand, such as enterprise inclusion, demand collection, demand distribution and feedback implementation, as well as the joint evaluation function with the 12345 enterprise service hotline.
Strengthen the digital transformation of handling complaints immediately, promote the intelligent construction of the 12345 citizen service hotline platform, use big data analysis, intelligent algorithms, artificial intelligence and other technologies to build scene applications such as intelligent acceptance, intelligent bill dispatching and intelligent return visit, improve the accuracy of bill dispatching and citizens’ perception, and promote the extension of handling complaints immediately to the Internet. At present, there are 17+N network channels to realize full-time acceptance. Establish a unified public opinion appeal database, collect more than 53 million records of people’s complaints, more than 2.7 million corporate data and more than 7,500 community (village) point information, analyze the pain points of people’s livelihood through big data, establish a "one question per month" mechanism, and strengthen active governance and source governance for the "urgent difficulties and worries" of corporate people.
Fourth, adhere to the concept of system and build an interconnected, intensive and efficient digital government platform system.
The information platform is the cornerstone to promote the construction of digital government, and it is also the necessary support to promote the technical integration, business integration and data integration of various departments, and to improve the collaborative management and service level across levels, regions, departments and businesses. According to the principle of intelligent and intensive, we should strengthen the overall management and scheduling of basic resources and services, the intensive construction and sharing of common application capabilities, and integrate and build a digital government platform support system with reasonable structure, interconnection, intensive efficiency, security and controllability. Beijing has deepened the overall design of the "four beams and eight columns deep foundation" of a smart city, and formed a "seven connections and one leveling" common support base including city code, space map, basic tool library, computing facilities, perception system, communication network, government cloud and big data platform (abbreviated as: one yard, one map, one library, one calculation, one feeling, one network, one cloud and one leveling). Consolidate the "trinity" common ability of technical support, business support and data support, form a "implementation map" of digital government affairs, provide intensive, secure and intelligent common resources and services to the whole city, and comprehensively promote the coordinated development of digital "one chess game in the whole city". For example, the common functions such as electronic seal and electronic certificate have been widely used in the field of government services. 4,412 electronic seals of government departments have been engraved and applied for 26.42 million times in the acceptance, correction and approval of government services, and 120 million pieces of electronic certificate data in 573 categories have been collected and applied for 21.48 million times in the scenes such as no submission of office materials and mobile display of certificates.Building a unified directory blockchain in the city, bringing together 31,000 data items and 34 billion government affairs data from 57 municipal departments, supporting more than 150 business application scenarios in urban areas such as epidemic prevention and control, monitoring of resumption of production and work, guarantee of major activities, and brain construction of regional cities; Promote the unified application of "Jingtong", "Jingban" and "Jingzhi" for service, office and decision-making, and enrich and enhance the service functions of smart cities. For example, in order to help prevent and control the epidemic situation in the capital, Beijing Health Treasure was launched, which can display personal health code, nucleic acid test results and vaccination status by scanning or flashing the code once, and provide functions such as "old and young health code to help query", "other people’s health code to query", "nucleic acid vaccine service query", "visitor information register" and "Jingxin help" on the basis of functions such as scanning and registration, so as to let the public.
Fifth, adhere to data empowerment and regard data security as the "lifeline" of digital government.
As one of the five major factors of production, data plays a more and more important role in the digital age. In the construction of digital government, all localities should vigorously improve their data governance capabilities, accelerate the activation of the potential of data elements, and develop and utilize data resources in an orderly manner. At the same time, they should adhere to the concept of safe development, strictly implement the requirements of the Data Security Law and the Personal Information Protection Law, strengthen data security, and regard data security as the "lifeline" of digital government. In recent years, Beijing has continuously strengthened data governance, focusing on the needs of high-frequency sharing applications in the process of handling matters in the field of government services. It has cleaned 357 types of government service-related data in three batches, and has gathered 250 million pieces of cleaned data to the city’s big data platform to ensure timely, complete and accurate data availability, and promote data sharing, process optimization and business collaboration. At present, the data resources of national and municipal big data platforms have been fully utilized, and they have been applied in high-frequency scenes such as epidemic prevention and control, house purchase qualification review and provident fund withdrawal for over 3.3 billion times. At the same time, make full use of the opportunity of the national business environment innovation pilot, promote the docking of 18 private networks and 22 systems of the State Council departments, call 22 types of electronic licenses and 88 data of the country, and support the application scenarios of 500 enterprises in the city, such as mass work and departmental supervision, and achieved positive results. For example, the time required for the examination and approval of the purchase qualification, which originally took one working day, was reduced to less than 30 minutes, and the time limit for examination and approval was over 90%. Deepen the innovation of data-driven operation, understand user behavior, find blocking points and blocking points through data embedding in the process of handling government service matters,Carry out optimization and rectification, and at the same time, focus on 21 quantifiable indicators such as time reduction, link reduction, running reduction and immediate operation rate in the process of handling. Scientifically carry out the "internet plus" evaluation of business environment, establish a data sharing and analysis system for the city’s business environment evaluation, build an evaluation index analysis model, dynamically monitor the business situation, assist all districts and departments to judge the effectiveness of the reform, and further enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of the reform. In order to keep the safety bottom line, Beijing strictly carries out data classification management, which is divided into four categories according to the attributes, characteristics and influence degree of the data, and combined with the scale and degree of influence, a safety supervision mechanism with clear responsibilities and clear division of labor is formed. At the same time, we will carry out data security operation, and build a systematic, streamlined and closed-loop management data security operation system through the organic integration of personnel, processes and tools from multiple dimensions such as data asset management, threat monitoring and identification, early warning, analysis and judgment, and disposal.
At present, China has started a new journey of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, and accelerating the construction of digital government is not only to meet the growing needs of the people for a better life, but also to promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, which puts higher demands on all party member cadres’ network literacy and digital skills. We must raise our awareness, develop our thinking and improve our skills, so as to promote the all-round and systematic digital transformation of the government, better meet the needs of enterprises, better serve the construction of a new development pattern, and promote the formation of the China standard for building a high-quality digital government, so as to contribute China wisdom and provide China’s solutions to the development of digital civilization in the world.

150 Years of Meiji Restoration-The Preacher of Iwakura Mission: The First Dispatch of Japan to Europe

As we all know, the Meiji Restoration in Japan was one of the most successful "modernization transformations" in modern Asia. Among them, the "Iwakura Mission", led by the reformists, made great contributions-a trip to the west in just two years, which carefully investigated all aspects of western powers and laid the foundation for the restoration in the next 50 years. However, the famous "Iwakura Mission" was not the first time that Japan took the initiative to "make Europe". The process of Japan’s understanding of the West and the world was also started before the Meiji Restoration. As early as more than 400 years ago, during the Warring States Period, Japan sent the European Mission-"Tianzheng Mission" for the first time.

Day is sending European youth envoys and accompanying priests.

From Nagasaki to Lisbon: The Journey to the West of "Extremely" Teenagers

In 1534, the Jesuits were founded in Paris. Jesuits traveled all over the world to spread Catholicism, and the earliest place where they made progress in the East was Warring States Japan, which was politically competitive and therefore relatively diverse in thought. According to scholars’ investigation, in 1582, when the "Tianzheng Mission" was dispatched, only one Jesuit order had 150,000 followers in Japan, and the successful missionary activities attracted many Kyushu names, such as Fei Qianguo, to convert to Catholicism. For a while, Japan became one of the most prosperous Catholic countries in East Asia at that time.

Kyushu is one of the most prosperous regions of Jesuits in the East.

Facing the prosperous situation of "faith", the Christian celebrities in Kyushu gradually came up with the idea of sending envoys to Europe, which coincided with the Jesuit society, which urgently needed to show its missionary achievements through "believers in the ends of the earth". Soon, with the support and financing of Fan Lian, the head of the Jesuit "East Indian Region", Ma Qingxin, Ōtomo Sōrin and Tadashi Omura, a "mission to Europe" composed of aristocratic teenagers was quickly established. They are Ōtomo Sōrin’s relative Ito Sukeyoshi, Ma Qingxin’s relative Qian Qian Shijie, Tomura’s relative Yuan Martin, and Kyushu aristocrat Zhongpu Julian. Because the oldest member of all the missions is only 15 years old, they are also called "Youth Envoys Sent to Europe by Heaven" by later generations.

In 2014, the portrait of Ito Sukeyoshi painted by the 16th century painter Tintoretto was discovered in Italy.

On February 20, 1582, carrying letters and gifts from three famous Christians, the first European mission in Japanese history officially set sail from Nagasaki Port. In addition to the four teenagers mentioned earlier, the mission also included Mesquita, a missionary, and other entourage, who were responsible for the daily life and education of the teenagers, and Fan Lian himself went with him. The fleet reversed along the commercial road developed eastward by the Portuguese maritime empire all the way to the west, from Nagasaki to Macau, and reached Goa, an important stronghold of Jesuits’ missionary work in India. The mission stayed in Goa for a long time because of the unfavorable climate. During this period, Fan Lian received a letter from the President of the Jesuits, asking him to stay in Goa and direct the missionary work in the East, and not to come with the mission. Therefore, Fan Lian had to appoint another Jesuit as the attache to accompany the mission to Europe after completion. After a stop-and-go voyage, the mission finally arrived off the coast of Lisbon in August 1584, ending two years of drifting at sea.

From Goa to Nagasaki, the establishment of eastern strongholds outlined the development track of Portugal’s maritime empire. Detailed reference to the new book History of Portuguese Maritime Empire by Gu Weimin, a scholar.

"The Mediterranean World in the Age of Philip II": Japanese Teenagers’ Journey to Europe

On the evening of August 11, 1584, the delegation officially landed on the land of Europe. As the title of Braudel’s masterpiece reveals, southern Europe at this time belongs to the "Mediterranean world" of Habsburg family Philip II-under his rule, it not only covers the whole of western Portugal today, but also includes Italy and the Netherlands; If you count his colonies in Latin America and Asia, Philip II ruled all over the world. Because of its close ties with the Vatican, the so-called "the strongest monarch in the Christian world" is well deserved. Under this historical background, the teenagers of "Tianzheng Mission" traveled to Europe slowly.

The first stop of the mission is Lisbon, the capital of Portugal. There, they met with the Portuguese governor many times and gained wide attention. After the tour in Portugal, the mission entered Spain in September, and arrived in Madrid on October 19th, heading for Wang Ting, the world’s first "empire that never sets". However, due to the nationwide swearing-in ceremony being held in Madrid at this time, the mission’s audience was postponed to November.

On November 14th, the audience ceremony was held as scheduled. Under the leadership of the King’s splendid guard of honor, four teenagers in kimonos slowly drove into the palace with letters from Japanese names and exquisite lacquerware gifts in the eyes of many citizens. King Philip II personally received them and thanked the famous Japanese for their gifts. The king also invited them to make a speech in Japanese. A few days later, the four members of the delegation visited the royal church and other places successively, and also visited the newly completed Escorial Palace, and were fortunate enough to witness the "highest sacred objects" such as the thorns of Jesus, which shows that the world monarch attached great importance to visitors from the far east.

Escorial Palace, the "eighth wonder of the world" costing countless American silver.

Farewell to Philip II, the mission continued to set out for the Italian territory of the empire by sea. In March 1585, the fleet arrived in Pisa, the residence of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. In the palace, Archduke Francis personally stepped down to meet him and invited a group of four people to attend the dinner. At the dinner party, an interesting thing happened that is still talked about: in the middle of the banquet, the Grand Duchess suddenly pulled up the sleeve of the chairman Ito Sukeyoshi and invited him to dance. After receiving the religious approval of the accompanying priest, Ito accepted the invitation of the Grand Duchess; Chichiishi and Zhongpu were also involved, and the atmosphere was warm for a while, which led to laughter.

Ito’s escape from being invited to dance with the Grand Duchess is still being interpreted on the stage.

After visiting Tuscany, the mission also visited Florence and other places. Because the original intention of the mission itself included the consideration of religious pilgrimage, they did not stay in these places for a long time. After a brief visit to the local nobles and a tour of the main holy places, the teenagers marched non-stop towards Rome, the "holy city" of Christianity.

Experience the moment of pope change: Rome of four teenagers

In March 1585, three years after sailing from Nagasaki, the mission finally arrived in Rome. Although according to the original plan, the Pope would meet the four teenagers informally in the form of private meetings, Pope George XIII at that time temporarily decided to meet these visitors from the Far East with a solemn public ceremony.

On the 23rd, the ceremony was held as scheduled. With the salute of the musket team roaring, and under the gaze of the guests and citizens present, Masato Ito, wearing a kimono, accompanied by two archbishops, was at the front of the team, followed by Chichiishi and former Martin, and headed for the Vatican Palace. When the believers from the other side of the distant earth appeared in the lobby, the Pope was filled with tears for a moment. He invited Ito and Chichiishi to read letters from three famous Japanese names in public, and asked the children about the religious and social situation in Japan in detail. Because the ceremony was short and unfinished, the Pope met the delegation again on April 3 and arranged for them to visit their bedrooms, which shows the Pope’s love for children.

Mission audience scene

However, things are unpredictable. Shortly after the second interview, Pope Emilio suddenly suffered from nasal mucositis and passed away on the afternoon of April 10th. In response to this unexpected situation, the College of Cardinals held a closed-door meeting on Easter that month, and elected Cardinal Montaldo to succeed Pope for Sistine V..

Because the old pope was very concerned about missionary affairs and gave the mission a high courtesy, the sudden death of the old pope caused deep concern among the members of the mission, who were worried that the new pope was not interested in the distant East. However, it turns out that their worries are unnecessary. At the subsequent coronation ceremony of the Pope, the mission teenagers were not only invited by the new Pope, but also invited to stand behind the Pope and put up a canopy for him, even before the representatives of France, the so-called "eldest daughter of the Catholic Church". Since then, in January, the new Pope has led teenagers to participate in various activities many times and awarded them honorary titles such as "Roman aristocrats".

An inscription recording the mission’s visit to Rome

In this way, after receiving the courtesy of the new Pope and the promise of supporting the Japanese missionary cause, the mission left Rome on June 3, passing through Venice, Milan and other places, and returned to the Iberian Peninsula by boat again. In Iberia, the mission stayed in Barcelona and Lisbon to wait for the weather suitable for sailing. A year later, in April, 1586, the time came to return to China. After four years away from home, the teenagers embarked on a long journey home.

Shangluo: a tortuous but extraordinary way to return home

Due to the high winds and high waves, the mission’s road to return home was not smooth, and it stopped and stopped all the way until it finally arrived in India in June 1587. However, just as the mission was about to complete the last leg of its long journey, the situation in Japan changed dramatically. In July, 1587, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the actual supreme ruler of Japan at that time, suddenly issued the Order of Pursuing and Releasing with the Celestial Company after completing the "Kyushu Conquest", which was the first time to ban religion in Japan, which added great variables to whether the "Tianzheng Mission" originally shouldered the religious mission could return to China smoothly.

"Companion with Heaven" (バテレン) means "priest". This order is the first missionary expulsion order in Japanese history.

Worried about the situation in Japan, the delegation deliberately slowed down and stayed in Goa and Macao, China for a long time to ensure the safety of returning home. However, due to the ability of Fanlian, the head of Jesuit East India, and the Portuguese Governor in Goa also promised to fully cooperate, the "Tianzheng Mission" was not only successfully allowed to return to China in 1590, but also got the opportunity to go to Kyoto in person the following year and see Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a "world person".

In March, 1591, Toyotomi Hideyoshi summoned the members of the mission in the "Juledi" mansion in Kyoto. Due to the previous prohibition of religion, the audience took a more flexible way, that is, let the teenagers of the mission wear Portuguese clothes and participate in the audience as European missions rather than their own nationals. However, in the specific reference process, the teenagers still adopted the traditional Japanese etiquette, and presented Toyotomi Hideyoshi with generous gifts and told them all kinds of experiences of the trip. Toyotomi Hideyoshi obviously showed great interest in the extraordinary experience of teenagers. After the audience ceremony, Toyotomi Hideyoshi summoned the delegation several times, and even once invited Ito Tomoyoshi to join him to contribute to his upcoming Korean expedition (the Battle of Nonchen). No, Toyotomi Hideyoshi’s invitation was declined by Ito, who claimed that it was an unjust act to abandon the priests who raised him just because of his high official position. Toyotomi Hideyoshi appreciated this. Before finally allowing the delegation to return to Kyushu, he inquired about the situation in Europe and India in detail.

With the completion of the "Visit to Shanghai", the "Tianzheng Mission", which lasted for more than 8 years, finally completed all its historical missions and officially returned to Kyushu in 1591.

The west wind spreading eastward: the significance and enlightenment of "Tianzheng Mission"

Through the historical retrospect of the first Japanese mission to Europe "Tianzheng Mission", we can see that, unlike the traditional narrative of "shutting the country out", Japan in early modern times, especially Kyushu, was not ignorant and indifferent to the great changes in the world. On the contrary, they have great interest in the distant west, and this interest is not a unique phenomenon that is only concentrated in the highest ruling class. This provides some clues for us to understand why Japan in Meiji era was able to transform rapidly after nearly 200 years.

From the top of society. First of all, in the historical field of early modern times in the 16th century, being able to send a mission to Europe on its own initiative was enough to reflect the interest of some Japanese political elites in the outside world at that time. In just 20 years later, the mission headed by Hasekura Rokuemon Tsunenaga once again made Europe (from the route, the mission even passed through America), which is another proof of this interest. Secondly, as a result of this trip to Europe, the teenagers of "Tianzheng Mission" brought back a large number of paintings and books from Europe, which brought a very comprehensive and brand-new world picture to the upper class who had access to these precious materials, and provided valuable original thrust for inspiring their desire to further explore the world. According to the research, Guan Bai Toyotomi Hideyoshi was very fond of The Atlas of the World (Theatrum Orbis Terrarum) presented by the youth of the mission, and even ordered painters to draw it into a screen for daily appreciation. It can be said that although geographically isolated, the upper class of Japanese society has always been more curious about the outside world.

A screen drawn by a Japanese painter according to The Complete Works of the Universe.

Similar to the upper class, the middle class and ordinary people, especially the ordinary people in Kyushu, have also been positively influenced by the visit of the "Tianzheng Mission". First of all, a large number of western paintings brought back by teenagers have been imitated by ordinary "Na Man paintings" (that is, western paintings). Secondly, and more importantly, the mission brought back the first Gutenberg metal movable type printing machine in Japanese history from Europe. Although movable type printing was invented in China and spread to Japan at that time, it is still very inconvenient to print western works. The bringing back of Gutenberg printing machine solved this problem well. Later, western language learning books, textbooks, and western religious literature were printed vigorously (the so-called "Geely Zhidan Edition" in later generations), which made the printing of Jesuits in Japan the climax. Through these books, western knowledge gradually entered the world of ordinary Kyushu people. The spread of knowledge from the outside world, though restrained by the later policy of the edo shogunate to ban religion, can never be obliterated. It was not until the Meiji Restoration era two hundred years later that they were awakened again, and then turned into a great innovation force at the lower level. Just like all successful reforms in history, "modernization of the country" and "modernization of the people" have always been complementary. As can be seen from the case of "Tianzheng Mission", the Japanese people’s interest in knowledge of the outside world started long before the Meiji Restoration.

Alipay released "Eight Discoveries of May Day Holiday": reverse tour of small towns, going out to ask AI, and setting up a concert stall as a new trend.

On May 5, Alipay released "Eight Discoveries of May Day Holiday", and traveling on business to ask AI, traveling to a small town in reverse, setting up stalls in concerts, and washing away the taste of classes have become new life trends worthy of attention.

"reverse tour" niche city, Ningxia stunning everyone

The May Day tour of YOLO has quietly changed: many young people choose to avoid the "conformity" of large scenic spots and go to minority scenic spots to start "reverse tourism".

According to Alipay data, ten small cities, such as Yili in Xinjiang, Yanbian in Jilin, Diqing in Yunnan, Guyuan in Ningxia, Ganzi in Sichuan, Tianshui in Gansu, Jingdezhen in Jiangxi, Zhongwei in Ningxia, Wuzhong in Ningxia and Pu ‘er in Yunnan, saw the largest year-on-year increase in off-site payment, among which Ningxia monopolized three cities. It is said that "Ningxia in Huang Hefu is the best in the world", and the places where treasures such as Danxia landform, Bronze Long Gorge and Shahaixing River are punched have also made Ningxia the most popular "reverse tourism" resort on May 1.

Millions of people travel to ask about AI, and they love to ask about the weather.

During the May 1 ST period, millions of people used Alipay intelligent assistants based on AI research and development as "work partners" for life tourism. Among them, asking about the recent weather, checking the nearby food and looking for coupons in the App are the three types of questions that humans ask AI the most.

Refuse to "talk about money shame", and small pockets become a good tool for sharing travel expenses.

Establishing a small purse in Alipay and transparently sharing travel expenses through this "shared small vault" has become a necessary action for many people before going out. More and more young people choose this way of traveling with human touch and a sense of boundary.

One month before the May Day holiday, the number of small wallets newly built for travel increased by 500% year-on-year.

Friends around the world favor "new national style" tourism, and inbound consumption has increased sevenfold.

With the introduction of the visa-free policy, inbound tourism continues to heat up, and it is more convenient for global tourists to pay for entry. During the May 1 ST period, the consumption of Alipay for inbound guests to tie foreign cards increased by 7 times year-on-year; Merchants have also ushered in new business opportunities. The number of China merchants who use Alipay to do global tourist business has increased by 4.5 times year-on-year.

The "new national style" tourism is increasingly favored by friends around the world-among the scenic spots with the highest year-on-year increase in Alipay consumption by inbound guests, more than half of the cultural tourist attractions such as Emei Mountain in Sichuan, the ancient city of Qufu in Shandong and Huaqing Palace in Shaanxi.

If you have a good trip abroad, it will cost you less.

The five-day holiday has also made the travel radius of Chinese people longer. Alipay launched the "Global Money Saving Link" with global merchants, and the offers from Thailand, South Korea and Malaysia were the most popular, while China, Hong Kong, Macao, Japan, South Korea, the United States and Thailand were the most popular destinations for Alipay users.

Taking the local bus with Alipay bus code has also become a new way of outbound travel. Hong Kong and Macao can take Alipay by bus, which is cost-effective and low-carbon. The number of public transport transactions in Hong Kong alone increased by 63% year-on-year.

Jason, Hua Chenyu and G.E.M. Cheng Wuyi Concert "King of Goods"

During the May Day period, hundreds of concerts and music festivals were held throughout the country. Some people went to the mountains and seas to listen to the voice of idols, while others loved the voice of Alipay. The concert also led to the rise of the surrounding "stall economy", with banners, light sticks and other AIDS and concert color makeup.

Jason, Hua Chenyu, G.E.M. Cheng Wuyi concert "King of Goods" has the largest number of small vendors around, and there are hundreds of stalls around each performance site.

The heart that wants to get rich never takes a holiday: first get the coupon and then pay the bill, and nearly 3 million people watch Buffett’s live broadcast of "Receiving Money".

Which province do young people like best on May Day? "Exquisite province". In this year’s "Spring Consumption Festival" organized by national merchants in conjunction with Alipay, nearly 100 million taxi tickets and 650 million coupons were collected, among which bath care, cosmetics and local food are the most popular preferential categories, and people who love to eat are also the "gods" of hoarding tickets. "Getting the tickets first and then paying the bill" has also become a new trend for young people to practice rational consumption.

There is no holiday for those who want to get rich: during the May Day period, the video broadcast volume of Alipay Pan-Finance Business increased by 30% compared with last month, and nearly 3 million people flocked to Buffett’s live broadcast room overnight to comment on "receiving money".

Washing clothes and washing dogs wash away the smell of class, and reborn a favorite Degang Guo to sleep with you.

In the "big wash" days of holidays, many people choose to return to life and concentrate on pleasing themselves. The number of visits to pet service head applet increased by over 100% year-on-year, and the number of visits to housekeeping cleaning maintenance head applet increased by over 300% year-on-year. Washing clothes, quilts, dogs and dogs washed away the smell of class. Nearly half of reading and listening users listen to books for more than 4 hours every day, and the five high-frequency words of book titles are: sleeping aid, rebirth, imperial doctor, favorite princess and Degang Guo. Four Great Classical Novels’s Dream of Red Mansions and Romance of the Three Kingdoms are also in the forefront.

Tucki MONA M03 evaluation intelligence and practicality coexist.

Tucki MONA M03 evaluation

The 2024 Tucki MONA M03 adopts a minimalist design style, with most functions integrated in the central control panel and no physical instrument. Although it has a strong sense of science and technology, it is a little inconvenient to check the vehicle information and operate the air conditioner. The upper part of the center console is made of soft material, which has a good touch. During the test, it was found that the lighting of the makeup mirror of the co-pilot sun visor was flickering, which was suspected of poor contact.

Despite the hatchback shape, the panoramic sunroof design has not greatly affected the rear head space. The central passage in the front row is divided into upper and lower floors. The upper floor provides a cup holder with a limiter and a wireless charging board for mobile phones, and the lower floor is an open storage compartment. The disadvantage is that the back row lacks a central armrest and a cup holder, so it is generally practical.

The 15.6-inch central control panel is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155P chip, and the system runs smoothly with good display effect. Equipped with "full scene voice" function, it supports four-tone zone recognition and multi-round dialogue, and has quick response to actual measurement, and can operate air conditioning and seat heating.

The 2024 Tucki MONA M03 is equipped with a front single motor, and the evaluation car is a high-power version with relatively conservative parameter settings. The accelerator pedal stroke is moderate, the starting power output is soft, and the acceleration process is smooth and powerful, creating a comfortable driving atmosphere. The brake pedal feedback is clear and definite, the braking stability is good, the steering wheel has no obvious deviation during full braking, and the tire grip performance is satisfactory.

The steering system provides three modes: comfort, standard and sport. In the first two modes, the steering wheel is light and suitable for urban driving; After switching to sports mode, the steering wheel becomes heavy, which is more suitable for high-speed driving and improves the handling stability. The chassis adopts the combination of front McPherson independent suspension and rear torsion beam non-independent suspension, which filters the road surface finely and bumps neatly. However, due to the tight adjustment of the suspension and the general sense of chassis thickness, the vibration and noise transmitted to the car are more obvious when passing through the rough road or speed bump quickly.

The evaluation car is equipped with L2-class auxiliary driving system, and the full-speed adaptive cruise is started by pulling the shift lever down twice continuously, with moderate acceleration and deceleration during car following, and the car following distance supports multi-gear adjustment. The distance between the nearest gear and the preceding vehicle is large, which is easy to be jammed by other vehicles.

Based on the test results, the overall performance of 2024 Tucki MONA M03 is in line with expectations in terms of objective data and subjective feelings. The thickness of paint film is quite satisfactory, and the body technology and paint film spraying uniformity of individual parts need to be improved. The hatchback model not only provides excellent visual impression, but also takes into account the practicality of the trunk. Man-machine interaction and dynamic ride comfort are satisfactory, but the problems such as the lack of rear cup holder and the unreasonable distance between cruise system and car still need to be optimized. The commercial performance of 2024 Tucki MONA M03 is in the middle and upper reaches of the same class.

Tucki MONA M03, positioned as "intelligent pure electric hatchback", focuses on home use and intelligence, and strives to achieve balanced performance in terms of price, performance and intelligence, so as to meet the diversified needs of consumers. Since its launch, the car has won the favor of young consumers because of its close price and excellent product performance. According to the data, as of press time, the cumulative number of complaints about 2024 Tucki MONA M03 is 16, and the word-of-mouth performance is stable in the short term. This evaluation will comprehensively show the true performance of the 2024 Tucki MONA M03 through objective data and subjective feelings.

In the body process test, the average gap of most parts of the 2024 Tucki MONA M03 is controlled within 4mm, but the average gap at the joint between the rear fender and the trunk on both sides is high and the uniformity is average. The test results of paint film level show that the average thickness of paint film of the whole vehicle is about 111.4μm, which is at the middle level among the tested vehicles. The paint film thickness of the front fender is slightly lower, while the paint film thickness of the rear door and trunk lid is obviously higher, reflecting that the spraying uniformity needs to be improved.

In the indoor air quality test, the formaldehyde content of 2024 Tucki MONA M03 is 0.01 mg/m, which meets the relevant national standards. In the static noise test, the noise value in the static state of the car is 35.4dB. The air conditioning noise test shows that the noise value at the highest gear is 66.9dB, which is at the middle level of the same class. In the static interior vibration test, the vibration value of the steering wheel position is always 0, and the vibration value of the front and rear seats is low and remains unchanged.

The tests of parking radar, lighting/vision, control system, tires, sunroof, seat and trunk show that the trunk is practical and the hatchback design provides a wide opening area. Panoramic skylight has a considerable lighting area and a good sense of transparency. Equipped with Michelin E PRIMACY series tires, effectively reducing tire noise. Relatively speaking, the length of the rear seat cushion is short, and the field of view of the external rearview mirrors on both sides is small, which needs to be optimized.

In the evaluation of external feelings, the 2024 Tucki MONA M03 adopts a brand-new design language, showing a strong sense of the future and recognition. The T-shaped headlight group is built with 300 LED bulbs, and the longest irradiation distance can reach 150m, which improves the driving safety at night. The concealed door handle reduces the drag coefficient and optimizes the endurance performance. Tail hatchback modeling has both sports visual effect and practicality. The electric engine room cover only provides one-sided manual support rod, which is laborious to open and close and is not equipped with sound insulation cotton, and the details need to be improved.

Blizzard suspended its cooperation with Netease Games. Where is the user data of players in World of Warcraft going?

Wen Yun You Yunting (Senior Partner of Shanghai Dabang Law Firm, Intellectual Property Lawyer)

Recently, American Blizzard Company releasedannouncementIt is said that since the license agreement with Netease will expire on January 23, 2023, the two parties have not reached an agreement on the renewal of the agreement that conforms to Blizzard’s operating principles and promises to players and employees, so most Blizzard game services such as World of Warcraft will be suspended in Chinese mainland. Let’s talk about it today, including is it possible to renew the agreement? If the renewal fails, will the game stop? If Blizzard replaces the agent in China, can the user data of the majority of players be translated?

The author’s personal judgment: the current differences are obviously difficult to bridge, so the possibility of renewing the contract is very small. There are two reasons:

oneTime is tight.The two sides must have talked for a long time, but they have not reached an agreement. The cooperation between Blizzard and Netease is very complicated, involving a variety of games, including PC, mobile and Battle.net. Most of the games are developed by Blizzard and jointly developed, and the various terms in the license agreement will take a long time technically. I was in charge of the renewal of legend of mir when I was a lawyer in Shanda. At that time, Shanda had a major dispute with South Korea’s Artos and Entertainment Meide Company. In the case of several lawsuits and arbitrations, the parties reached a renewal four months before the contract expired. At present, it is only two months and more than a week before Blizzard issued a statement. From the author’s experience, there is little room for recovery.

2There are great differences.If this cooperation breaks down, it will have a great impact on both sides, so if it is a small dispute, one side will definitely make concessions. Everyone is a listed company and an established enterprise, and mistakes due to small losses will not be made. Time is tight, but the core is still divided.

If Blizzard and Netease can’t reach an agreement on the license agreement in the next two months, the games covered by the current agreement, including World of Warcraft, will stop serving, and may stop for a long time. Online games belong to electronic publications. According to the Publication Regulations, they need a version number for domestic operation, but if the imported games change operators, they need to apply for a new version number. The General Administration of Press and Publication has also issued a special document:

Online games that have been pre-approved or import-approved by the General Administration of Press and Publication must go through the pre-approval or import-approval procedures again if their operating units are changed. From the date when the operating units are changed to the time when they are re-approved, online games should stop all operational services. Offenders shall be dealt with according to illegal online publishing.

However, if Blizzard changes its operation agent, it may take a long time to approve the version number. At present, the cooperation between Blizzard and the new operation agent has not been signed, and the version number can only be applied after signing the contract. And according toRecords on the website of the edition departmentThe last time an imported game was issued, it was in June 2021. Even if the imported game version number is issued normally from this month, there are a lot of applications for the imported game version number. It is possible that it is the turn of Blizzard’s new operation agent and it will be passed the next year.

This problem is more complicated. Let’s start with the conclusion: If Blizzard changes agents, the player’s user data can be translated to the new operator with a high probability, but the time is uncertain. According to Blizzard’s culture, there must be a clause in its license contract with Netease that requires Netease to transmit user data to Blizzard or its designated operator after the contract is terminated. After the ninth city terminated its cooperation with Blizzard more than ten years ago, the ninth city passed all the user data of World of Warcraft to Blizzard, and then Blizzard gave it its new operation agent Netease.

However, the current legal environment is different from that when Blizzard changed operators in 2009. In 2021, China promulgated the Law on the Protection of Personal Information, and the user data of players contains personal information. If Netease wants to give the user data to Blizzard, it must also fulfill the compliance procedures for data leaving the country. The user data of players in the game is divided into two parts: login data and play data. Login data can identify individuals, such as email number, mobile phone number, id number and ID number, which belong to personal information, while play data is user data generated by playing in the game, which does not belong to personal information because it cannot identify individuals.

according toWorld of WarcraftandBlizzard battle. netAt present, the login data and play data in the game are stored by Netease, but Blizzard can obtain play data without personal information. Blizzard can only obtain login data (or part of it) when it involves account security, cracking down on cheating, or processing and analyzing data. If the game operation is terminated, Netease will send all user data including login data to Blizzard, because Blizzard is an American company, so data transmission belongs to data exit.

If Netease wants to take the player’s personal information out of the country, according to the Personal Information Protection Law, it should first obtain the player’s separate consent. If the player does not agree, it cannot be transmitted. Even if the player agrees, Netease still has the compliance obligation of data exit to fulfill.

There are tens of millions of players in Blizzard Games in China, so the personal information in the user data also involves tens of millions of people. For such a large amount of personal information to leave the country, it needs to be assessed by the relevant departments. The basis is Article 4 of China’s "Data Exit Safety Assessment Method": Data processors who process personal information of more than 1 million people provide personal information overseas, and data processors who provide data overseas shall report the data exit safety assessment to the national network information department through the local provincial network information department. The security assessment and review of data leaving the country is relatively wide, and it takes a long time for the government to review the personal information of tens of millions of people leaving the country. Everyone should understand. Of course, you can also look on the bright side. It takes a long time to approve the version number of imported games, and the time for data exit security assessment should not be as long as the version number. Therefore, when the World of Warcraft with a different operator gets the version number, the data exit security assessment should have already produced the results.

Of course, it does not rule out the possibility that Netease and Blizzard think that the data exit security assessment procedures are complicated, and it is stipulated in the contract that Netease will directly hand over the user data to the next domestic operation agent designated by Blizzard after the cooperation is terminated. This will bypass the data exit security assessment review, and the time will be much faster. I hope there is this provision in the contract between Netease and Blizzard.

Ten highlights of Labor Contract Law show the legislative direction of "people-oriented"

  


  BEIJING, Jan. 10 (Xinhua)-Hong Kong Ta Kung Pao published a commentary entitled "Ten Highlights of the Labor Contract Law" on Jan. 10, saying that China’s Labor Contract Law unified enterprises and workers in the spirit of "law". "Labor Contract Law" highlights the legislative direction of "people-oriented", which is the embodiment of socialist legislative principles and a new milestone in the legal construction of labor and social security in China.


  The original extract of the article is as follows:


  The Labor Contract Law came into effect on January 1, 2008. This is another milestone in the legal construction of labor and social security in China since the Labor Law. This law highlights the concept of "people-oriented" and embodies the legislative direction of Socialism with Chinese characteristics.


  The author believes that the Labor Contract Law has 10 highlights in people-oriented:


  Highlight people-oriented


  Highlight 1: There are new regulations on "probation period". Clearly defined the "probation period", "minimum wage level" and "not arbitrarily dismissing probationary workers", and blocked the legal loopholes in the Labor Law.


  Highlight 2: "One sign a year" is restricted. It is stipulated that "if a fixed-term labor contract is concluded twice in a row, an open-ended labor contract should be concluded", and "when the contract is terminated, the employer should pay economic compensation to the laborer according to the standard of one month per year, with a maximum of 12 months", which limits the short-term contract of "signing once a year".


  Highlight 3: "Labor dispatch" has laws to follow. It is stipulated that "the employing unit shall not set up a labor dispatch unit to dispatch workers to its own unit or subordinate unit" and "the labor dispatch unit shall pay monthly remuneration to the dispatched workers according to the minimum wage standard stipulated by the local people’s government during the period when they are not working", etc., to limit the phenomenon of abuse of labor dispatch by the employing unit.


  Highlight 4: "Contract termination" should be compensated. It is stipulated that "unless the laborer is unwilling to renew the labor contract, the employer must give the employee economic compensation", and "the employer is unwilling to renew the contract and needs compensation at the expiration of the contract; The employer shall terminate the contract in violation of the law in double indemnity ". Ending the history that employers don’t have to give employees any economic compensation after the expiration of fixed contracts.


  Highlight 5: "Arrears of wages" plus compensation. It is stipulated that "if the employer is in arrears or fails to pay the labor remuneration in full, the laborer may apply to the local people’s court for a payment order according to law, and the people’s court shall issue a payment order according to law", and "the employer shall pay additional compensation at a standard of 50% to 100% of the payable amount." This is a heavy hammer to the phenomenon of unpaid wages.


  Highlight 6: The "written contract" must be concluded within one month. It is stipulated that "if a written labor contract has not been concluded with the employee after one year from the date of employment, in addition to paying twice the salary in accordance with the above provisions, it shall also be regarded as having concluded an open-ended labor contract with the employee". Increased the legal responsibility for not signing a written labor contract.


  Highlight 7: "Illegal layoffs" should bear the responsibility. It is stipulated that "when retrenching personnel, priority should be given to retaining the following personnel: those who enter into fixed-term labor contracts with a longer term; Concluding an open-ended labor contract; There are no other employees in the family, and there are elderly people or minors who need to be supported. Otherwise, they will bear legal responsibility.


  Highlight 8: "Occupational hazards" must be specified in advance. It is clearly required that "occupational hazards" and "protective measures" should be clearly stated in the labor contract.


  Highlight 9: Prevent "useless" workers. It is stipulated that "the salary of a worker during the probation period shall not be lower than 80% of the lowest salary of the same position in the unit or the salary agreed in the labor contract, and it is emphasized that the salary during the probation period shall not be lower than the minimum wage standard where the employer is located".


  Highlight 10: "freedom of choosing a job" liquidated damages. The labor contract can be "agreed to keep the business secrets of the employer and confidential matters related to intellectual property rights". The employer shall give economic compensation to the workers on a monthly basis during the period of non-competition. Workers who violate the non-competition agreement shall pay liquidated damages to the employer as agreed.


  The law has also caused controversy, with three main focuses:


  The first is "increased labor costs". Many enterprises are worried that labor costs will be greatly increased. Xin Chunying, deputy director of the NPC Law Committee, believes that "after careful calculation, the labor cost of law-abiding enterprises will not increase" and "returning the low wage level to a reasonable level will help promote industrial upgrading". The second is to "rebuild the iron rice bowl." This is also a traditional one-sided understanding, because the law also stipulates that "an enterprise can dismiss its employees". For example, in addition to the dismissal reasons such as "being investigated for criminal responsibility according to law", the contract can be terminated at any time for "the employee seriously violates labor discipline or the rules and regulations of the employer", "has a serious impact on the completion of the work tasks of the unit, or refuses to correct after being put forward by the employer". This is the legal protection of the "autonomy" of enterprises in labor and employment. The third is "whose interests should the law protect". Many business people believe that the law "favors workers and harms the interests of enterprises". Many foreign-funded institutions (such as the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China and the American Chamber of Commerce) have proposed that "the implementation of laws that excessively protect the rights and interests of workers will have a negative impact on the investment environment in China".


  The author thinks that the one-sided understanding of the Labor Contract Law is caused by the long-term insufficient protection of workers’ rights and interests, taking unreasonable labor relations as a matter of course, or ignoring the disadvantaged groups. In essence, the law is intended to protect the legitimate rights and interests of both parties, not to harm the interests of enterprises.


  Whether people-oriented or capital-oriented is the direction of socialist legislation. A few days ago, the research results of 24 experts and scholars, which lasted more than one year ―― The Current Situation of Employment Discrimination in China and Anti-discrimination Countermeasures ―― and Overseas Anti-employment Discrimination System and Practice came out, which is the largest and most authoritative research in the theory and practice of anti-employment discrimination in China. A total of 3,454 questionnaires in 10 major cities, including Beijing, Guangzhou, Nanjing, Wuhan, Shenyang, Xi ‘an, Chengdu, Zhengzhou, Yinchuan and Qingdao, show that the phenomenon of employment discrimination in China is serious: 85.5% think it is "discriminatory" and 50.8% think it is "very serious" and "relatively serious". Yang Jingyu, director of the NPC Law Committee, said that the new law "is the need to improve the labor legal system in China. Balancing labor relations and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of workers have always been the principle that China labor legislation must follow. ". Sun Baoshu, vice minister of the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, believes that "on the basis of respecting the employer’s autonomy in employment, it is stipulated that labor contracts must be concluded with workers" in order to "effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of workers".


  The author thinks that "Labor Contract Law" unifies enterprises and workers in the spirit of "law". Emphasizing the protection of the legitimate rights and interests of workers is the general principle of international labor legislation; Putting people first is the sublimation of "the guiding ideology of legislation". From the Labor Law to the Trade Union Law, from the Employment Promotion Law to the Labor Dispute Mediation and Arbitration Law … The rule of law in China’s labor system is constantly maturing. "Labor Contract Law" highlights the legislative direction of "people-oriented", which is the embodiment of socialist legislative principles and a new milestone in the legal construction of labor and social security in China.

Round table | The origin of rice writing, the value and significance of "going up the mountain for thousands of years"

In the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China, the earliest rice cultural sites in the world are concentrated. Since November 2000, archaeologists have successively excavated the earliest cultivated rice, the remains of settled villages and a large number of painted pottery in the world in Pujiang County, Zhejiang Province. The archaeological discovery of Shangshan site has attracted worldwide attention, which fully proves that this is the origin of the world’s rice civilization and an important starting point for the formation of Chinese civilization based on the southern rice civilization and the northern millet civilization.

 In mid-May, the first regular meeting of the special class for the protection and application of Shangshan cultural sites was held in Pujiang County, Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province, and the formal application of Shangshan cultural sites took the first step. What is the heritage value and significance of the "golden business card" of "going up the mountain for thousands of years"? The Paper excerpted some speeches made by experts attending the meeting and published them.

Mountain culture and the origin of rice cultivation

Jiang Leping (researcher of Zhejiang Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, discoverer of Shangshan culture);As for the cultural characteristics of rice cultivation, we think that we have found the characteristics different from the cave stage. A series of evidence chains were found, including the evidence of cultivation, harvesting, processing, grinding and eating. It has been confirmed that rice has become human food for the first time. I think this is a very important discovery. I don’t need to talk about the evidence of cultivated rice identification with the experts present. There are few carbonized rice found in the early stage, but the amount found in the middle and late stage has increased obviously. With the expansion of settlement scale in Shangshan Cultural District, the scale of rice cultivation is also expanding. This is the most familiar piece of pottery with charcoal, and it is mixed with broken rice husk, which is used to make pottery after rice is eaten. This is the discovered wine vessel, the latest achievement published, and it may also be mentioned in Teacher Liu’s video. Simple conclusion. Actually, I wrote some small articles for China Cultural Relics. Compared with the early Neolithic cave sites in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, which also revealed some rice information, the culture of going up the mountain has three distinct characteristics:

First, mountain rice cultivation includes a series of evidences of cultivation, harvesting, processing, grinding and eating, and a brand-new farming behavior system has been initially formed.

Second, going out of the cave and occupying the wilderness area that settled in the activity center of Neolithic Age marked the real beginning of an era. I always feel that the basic concept of the Neolithic Age is agricultural settlement, but it is not easy to find a conclusive evidence of it. We found the earliest evidence in the mountains.

Thirdly, the rice farming culture on the mountain is a phenomenon of uninterrupted and steady progress, and a kind of business economic behavior has a real relationship with the survival and reproduction of a group. This information and its cultural significance have surpassed the historical and historical attributes of the early cave sites. This sentence is a little abstract, I think it can be understood. In the 1980s, I saw someone say in an English article that farmers would return to hunter-gatherers, and the initial farming economy returned to hunter-gatherer economy. This phenomenon exists. I remember Mr. Chen Chun said in an article that rice is not the best food from the perspective of nutrient and calorie supply. The main function is to satisfy hunger, so many primitive ancestors have turned back. However, the people who go up the mountain are not like this. The farming culture on the mountain has been in the process of development for two thousand years, which is a very important feature that the culture on the mountain is different from the cave stage. The Yangtze River valley in China is one of the few independent agricultural origins in the world, and Shangshan culture provides the earliest evidence that "cultivated rice originated in China".

The earliest carbonized rice. The Neolithic Shangshan Culture (about 11,000-8,500 years ago) was unearthed at the Shangshan Site in Pujiang, Zhejiang Province in 2006.

The position of Shangshan culture as the origin of rice farming and its academic thinking

Zhao Zhijun (researcher, Institute of Archaeology, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences):In several sites where we have unearthed the remains of early rice, only Shangshan culture provides us with sufficient archaeological evidence of human farming behavior, for example, the evidence of settlement life closely related to human farming. Just now, I specially mentioned that F2 is the early stage of going up the mountain. Of course, I think we should consider the early and middle stages of going up the mountain together. If we consider them together, it will be more sufficient, and F1 is even worse. It is a large row house. Humans have settled down, and we have found a set of agricultural production tools related to farming behavior, such as the stone sickle suspected as an agricultural harvesting tool in the early stage, a set of stone tools, stone millstones and stone grinding sticks related to agricultural production in the middle stage, and some I think are stone axes and spears, which should be related to slash and burn. It seems a bit reluctant, but in fact they should be related. Why are these grinded stone axes and spears? I’ve been talking about this problem for a long time. As soon as we talked about axes and spears, we immediately thought of handicraft processing tools, which coincided with the emergence of agriculture. Do you think it has nothing to do with agriculture? What should we do first when we consider slash-and-burn cultivation? The first step is to develop the vegetation that grows on this land.

In addition, we also found exquisite pottery, and a large number of evidences of human utilization of rice, etc. All these evidence chains are similar to the fact that human beings have started to implement agricultural production behavior in the early and middle period of Shangshan culture, and this archaeological evidence is currently found in China, which is the earliest related to rice farming. Undoubtedly, there is no earlier one, so it is the most important to re-evaluate the position of Shangshan culture in our research on rice farming. It is the source, which is why Mr. Yan Wenming said that Shangshan culture is the source of farming villages. This sentence is of profound significance, because Mr. Yan used farming and villages here, which has actually pointed out a very important content to us, that is, if we want to explore the origin of rice farming, we should pay more attention to human behavior. From this perspective, Shangshan site is the earliest archaeological site of rice farming evidence that we have found in China.

At present, our pursuit of rice farming in China can only be traced back to Shangshan culture.

The Origin of Rice Cultivation and the Road of Rice —— The Community of Destiny of Early Human Beings

Qinling Mountains (Professor, Peking University Institute of Archaeology and Culture):I don’t think I’ll repeat it. I may add the particularity from three angles to the points they didn’t talk about. First, where is the particularity of rice as a plant chosen by human beings? Second, what is the biggest feature of Shangshan culture when we discuss the origin of rice farming? Finally, what is the difference between the formation of rice as a community of human destiny and the particularity of other agricultural factors? I will talk about these three items.

The particularity of rice is the most unfamiliar to the teachers and experts here today, because most of us are doing archaeology and history, and we will not consider this issue. Simply speaking, the particularity of rice is too professional, and it is ecologically the only derivative plant in the wetland used in human history, that is, all the crops we use are two categories, except rice, one is the so-called summer monsoon or millet that uses summer rainfall. From millet in China to all kinds of millet in India, to African sorghum, pearl millet and even American corn just mentioned by Fu Daolian, they are all a large category of dry land plants that rely on summer rainfall. Another big category is wheat, barley and oats, but they are also dry land plants. The biggest difference between them and rice is that they all live in dry land, that is, people will not live in ponds when they go out to produce in the wilderness, so they are completely discovered and utilized in the process of using and transforming their living environment, while rice is only discovered and utilized when people consciously use the special environment of wetlands. This is the most fundamental difference.

The second is their reproduction. Now all the domesticated crops we see are annual weeds except rice itself. For example, Setaria viridis is an annual grass. We can see and know that they will grow and grow every year by the roadside. Their habits are easy to be discovered by humans, but rice is very different, especially the origin of our japonica rice. Its wild ancestors are perennial plants. What do you mean? When there is a lot of water, it won’t bear fruit at all, so you can’t eat it. It’s a wild plant. Finally, its perennial nature, its viability for many years, and the plants that don’t necessarily bear seeds and grow seeds every year, have been transformed and used, and become plants that are out of perennial nature and have the highest yield, that is, people’s transformation ability is too strong.

The third very important thing is the particularity of hereditary rice. Compared with wheat, we know that wheat has changed from haploid and diploid to hexaploid, which is the wheat we eat today. It is through hybridization that genetic mutations constantly occur, and finally the wheat that we make bread and noodles today is formed. It is hybrid. It has the earliest wheat produced in West Asia, and at the same time, the wheat produced in West Asia hybridizes with local weeds in the grasslands of Central Asia when it spreads abroad. In the process of transmission, heredity is not so simple. It is constantly being transformed by people in different regions by adapting to the environment. In the end, for example, the common wheat spread to China is a hexaploid.

Hereditarily speaking, the characteristics of rice are really very simple. Even the indica rice and Indian rice we see today are diploids and subspecies, but their production is also unique. There is evidence from molecular biology research that all the phenotypic characteristics of domesticated genes in japonica rice can be found in indica rice at last. What does this mean? That is to say, japonica rice originated first, and then in the process of spreading, new varieties were produced there, resulting in indica rice, which was the result of hybridization with other early wild rice that had been planted locally.

I think these three are the first starting points for us to discuss why rice is different from other crops in the future. Biologically speaking, human beings have discovered and utilized ecological environments that do not belong to them, and their reproduction is so weak and simple, and they have always been a single-line evolution species, which is really a concentrated embodiment of human creativity.

The second thing to say is the particularity of going up the mountain in the origin of rice cultivation.

Just now, everyone mentioned a lot of remains of early rice cultivation. Simply speaking, before 8,000 years ago, because of the warming climate, the whole environment was pushed more than 600 kilometers north. According to the surface pollen, 600 kilometers went to Shandong, and the whole ecological environment was the same as that in the south. Under this background, we naturally found that people in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River basin were using rice cultivation. There are also middle reaches and lower reaches in the Huaihe River Basin, one is the Jiahu site in the middle reaches, and the other is the downstream center of the mountain-gathering culture that Mr. Dai and his colleagues did together with Jiangsu Province, which you didn’t have a chance to talk about today. There are also some rice, millet and millet used in post-Wenhua Li at the northern foot of Mount Tai, because the climate was getting warmer at that time, and it was not used in this area, but in many areas.

But what’s the point of going up the mountain? First, there is really continuity. It started at the earliest and lasted for the longest time, and it is a process of the same strain until the emergence of Liangzhu national civilization. Moreover, this process is very much the result of its own development, because the situation in the middle reaches is not the same. The development of the middle reaches has always been a process of North-South exchanges. The development of Qujialing and Shijiahe has high factors, and even the cultures of Qujialing and Shijiahe are in communication and integration with the Central Plains. Of course, it’s a pity that the Huaihe River basin mentioned earlier, because of the change of environment, Jia Hu, Shunshan and even Wenhua Li have no sustainable development at all. The wetland resources used by people 8,000 years ago have turned into dry farming. Therefore, on such a sustainable scale, it is very important to understand the foundation and root of the whole single rice civilization.

Another very important particularity is that Shangshan culture itself gives us many clues to reconsider the rate of domestication and the definition of domestication in the whole world. Why do you say that? Just now, Teacher Zhao Zhijun mentioned that the materials in West Asia will take thousands of years to be domesticated, and when Fu Daolian spoke, we will also take thousands of years to be domesticated. When the bridge comes out, it will be completely changed. We have made full use of rice husk and rice in the pottery pieces that have been up the mountain for ten thousand years, but how high is the proportion of domestication yet? However, in 9000, the Qiaotou site in the middle of the mountain was the representative, because Mr. Deng from Peking University had been systematically working with Mr. Jiang Leping, and the domestication rate was 80%. We are very confident about this, including the fish scale decoration of some phytoliths made by Mr. Lu.

It itself has to solve a problem, how can we see that the domestication speed has become faster and completed within a culture? This is different from the domestication law in other parts of the world, and it will be of great theoretical and even subversive significance for the whole future world to study the agricultural origin model and even the domestication mechanism. I also spoiled this in advance, and we went on to solve it with Teacher Jiang. Because early rice can’t be found, there are so many rice husks and spikes in pottery pieces, and now Mr. Deng Zhenhua is still cooperating with Mr. Jiang. We take these pottery pieces to do micro-CT, which is micro-CT, so we take these pottery pieces to do fault scanning, extract the gaps inside, that is, the gaps of these spikes, and quantify them. We hope to come up with some preliminary results soon to discuss why we saw the speed of rice domestication so fast on the mountain, and to explain that from the early stage to the middle stage, whether it is the settlement form or the degree of social differentiation, the pottery group has changed, and these changes are related, which will become a bright spot in the next stage of mountain research.

Last but not least, I would like to add that if we understand the whole rice planting, the topic that Mr. Jiang gave me is the community of human destiny. After rice planting came into being here, it has several levels of significance in the long history of human evolution. There are about four levels. They are not the relationship between layers, but the different directions of communication and the impact of these communication on human history.

First, it is the foundation of China. It first appeared the communication with the Yellow River Basin. We are developing our own civilization by pure rice cultivation, but it has caused the whole Central Plains region to embark on the road of bumper harvests in the future, which has caused the Central Plains region to accept wheat in the future. The background color of the whole Yellow River Basin is that it will use different forms of subsistence economy to improve productivity and support more people. Because we want to use different cultivated land, we have found a set of things about how to mediate the relationship between people and society. Undoubtedly, the spread of rice to the North has promoted the communication between the Yellow River and the Yangtze River valley, and finally promoted the emergence of the so-called China background multicultural fusion culture, which is produced from the neutralization and fusion of agricultural forms, which is the most basic aspect, and the economic forms are all like this, not to mention the ideological culture behind it.

Then we saw its spread to the outside world. The first and most important thing was to promote the formation of indica rice. Simply put, now everyone knows that the Ganges Valley in India is the origin of indica rice, and the earliest data is that it was definitely domesticated indica rice 5000 years ago or 4500 years ago. However, whether we say that it takes the Hexi Corridor down from Pamirs and passes through the Indus Valley or the Hengduan Mountains, our southwest region passes through Southeast Asia and then enters, no matter which route, it shows that China’s japonica rice spread to the South Asian subcontinent and crossed with the local people who planted the wild ancestors of primitive indica rice to form the final indica rice, which has been proved by genetics, but we can’t discuss the route clearly. Indica rice also has a high yield, which has low requirements for the ecological environment and can feed more people, including the work done by Mr. Yuan later. This is the first important point, that is, the origin, development and spread of japonica rice promoted the emergence of the second most important subspecies-indica rice.

Secondly, I don’t think it is necessary to say much about its spread to Southeast Asia. Everyone knows that its spread to Southeast Asia, whether through the Southeast Asian continent or through the Southeast Asian islands, eventually formed the so-called Neolithic of the Pacific Rim islands, that is, the theory of agricultural language communication, formed the Austronesian language family, and formed the cultural pattern of the entire Pacific island we see today. This is its second very important contribution and its role in the emergence of a human cultural pattern.

Thirdly, in Northeast Asia, we know that the so-called Korean Peninsula culture, rope pattern culture and Yayoi culture are all the way from the Korean Peninsula to Kyushu Island to Honshu Island. A series of rice crops from rope pattern and Yayoi in Japan and South Korea all came from China. This spread caused the formation of the East Asian cultural circle, which was not formed by millet or wheat. Its real formation, the identification of China in the Han Dynasty and the identification of sinicization began with Yayoi culture.

I will talk about these angles. One is the influence on the formation of China, the influence on the formation of indica rice, the influence on the Austronesian language family, the formation of the entire Pacific cultural pattern, and ultimately the influence on the formation of the East Asian cultural circle. These are all from the origin of rice cultivation, and I may finally feel that it meets the requirements put forward by Teacher Jiang. From the perspective of the community of human destiny, we think about how big the real role of rice cultivation is.

The Origin of Rice Cultivation and the Road of Rice —— The Community of Destiny of Early Human Beings

Wang Renxiang (researcher, Institute of Archaeology, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences):Just now, I listened to several people who focused on farming culture. Shall I turn to industry and handicrafts here? Talk about making pottery, talking about art and talking about painted pottery. I have a little experience about the pottery itself. I think the pottery on the mountain is very primitive, but I always feel that it has the techniques of porcelain making, including the screening and molding of pigments, especially the exhibition today. I don’t see it clearly, but I think it is made of the makeup soil of later porcelain. In fact, its pottery is still relatively rough, because it has charcoal or something, and then it is usually necessary to put on a layer of pottery at the back, whether it is good or not, in fact, for the feeling of light. Later, the appearance of porcelain makeup technology was relatively late. When? By the time of the Han dynasty. But I noticed that this technology first appeared in the distribution area of Shangshan culture, and its technical tradition, in fact, whether there will be some evidence in the middle of the missing period, I think we can think again from these aspects. The only thing it lacks is the lack of heat. What will happen if the heat arrives? Are all the pottery burnt out, or will there be porcelain, because the minerals are not clear now, so it is still pottery. This pottery is particularly exquisite because it not only uses the makeup soil technology, but also paints and even dyes. Some of it is red all over the body, like the most exquisite red bottle just mentioned. The shape of the pottery is a bit strange, and it is already very advanced. We don’t think there should be that pottery in that era, but there is, and the whole body is red, not only for one utensil, but also for other utensils.A large piece of red. There are mainly white colors besides red. I have seen and analyzed this white color. This color has never appeared anywhere, so it should be the earliest.

These painted patterns are relatively simple, a little bit, wired, parallel lines, dotted-line structure, and staggered broken lines. In short, they are relatively simple, but they make you feel that the head here is intentional, and it should have its symbolism, especially when we see the sun at the bridgehead, which should be the most realistic. It is no problem to say that it is the sun. But there is also a decorative combination next to the sun, which is a triangle of contrast. I think the catalogue and the pictures of the exhibition are separated. It is actually a picture with the sun, which is very important. I think it should at least symbolize the sun. We also see the whole sun and half the sun. There must be a thin symbolic meaning here that needs to be studied. I pay special attention to this triangle, which is actually very common in Yangshao painted pottery. This picture of our exhibition separates it. Of course, that piece of pottery is there, so it will feel different when put together, and you will have associations.

The earliest painted pottery (one), the Neolithic Shangshan culture (about 11000-8500 years ago), was unearthed from Qiaotou site in Yiwu, Zhejiang Province.

Sun-patterned pottery tablets at Qiaotou site in Yiwu

In fact, there are many painted pottery in Yangshao, but there is no explanation. I think this is a very important clue. I hope that such decorative patterns and the image of the sun will coexist in one picture, which will make us resonate and associate. The key issue is that our reporters and excavators believe that the age of painted pottery should be around 9000 years, or as early as 9500 or 9600, which should be the earliest age that can be determined in the world. This is the second phase of Shangshan culture. We don’t know whether there will be the first phase of Shangshan culture, and it may not be there. At this time, the color is very mature. We know that painted pottery in West Asia is more than 8,000 years old and 9,000 years old. In the early days, going up the mountain should be clear and leading. People who go up the mountain dress up in red and white to show their art and their observation and understanding of the world, especially the appearance of symbolic assembly patterns, which is very remarkable. We may have underestimated the prehistoric art in the past. Recently, it is particularly felt that our white pottery in Hunan has a very simple geometric figure for about 8000 years, which has made you think so abstractly about symbolism (if you don’t understand it, it’s really hard to understand it). I think that’s a legendary system with images. It’s amazing, so it’s very promising to go up the mountain, and there are such signs of discovery. We’ll wait and see.

Mountain culture-an important discovery to rewrite the history of human civilization and an important source of Chinese civilization

Wang Wei (Chairman of China Archaeological Society, Member of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences):I summed it up, and I think the discovery of going up the mountain: first, it is a relatively comprehensive and typical site group and culture in the early Neolithic period. It can be said that some characteristics of the Neolithic Revolution summarized by Childe are really comprehensive. The first greatest significance is the emergence of rice cultivation, which is an example of the earliest rice domestication process that can be confirmed now, and it is not very sporadic. We found a lot of rice husks in early pottery, which is not very preliminary. Is it the first time to be cultivated, is it such a stage, or is there a more primary stage ahead that needs to be considered, and is it that rapid progress has been achieved from the early stage to the middle stage, because rice husks are not very sporadic in pottery, and the amount will not be so large in the most primary stage, which I think is also expected to be further studied in the future. But in any case, I think it is not the most preliminary from the early stage, and it has already reached a certain scale. I think this is the first.

Stone millstones and sticks at Shangshan site

Moreover, it has a series of tools for production and consumption, indicating that its proportion in people’s lives is not very sporadic at the beginning, this is a. There are also the earliest villages and settlement groups that settled in the piedmont slope. As we all know, we used to live in caves and then went to the piedmont slope. The reason for coming out is actually worth considering. The change of environment and the increase of vegetation are probably related to the fact that these food sources that became crops after cultivation entered people’s recipes.

Thirdly, through this stone group, the number of ground stone tools increased in the early and middle stages, which is a good example. There is also the increasing diversification of pottery types, and a change can be seen in the early and middle stages. There are also the earliest painted pottery. Just now, Professor Wang Renxiang told us that we were very touched, especially after the test. The shape of porcelain unearthed in it may be like that of Song and Yuan Dynasties, but it turned out to be 9000 years ago. I think it is definitely the most outstanding representative of prehistoric pottery in China prehistoric art, at the level of 9000 years.

Statue of Xiatang Site in Xianju

There are also those depicting symbols that may have profound meanings, which are very worth studying. And Professor Li Liu said that rice wine, which may be the earliest raw material, is more important. I think these aspects are really a series of important contributions in the history of human civilization, and just now Professor Qinling also said that rice farming has expanded from here to the surrounding areas, and the Yellow River basin, Huaihe River basin and Southeast Asia, including Northeast Asia, which we are already familiar with, have a very far-reaching impact. I think this has solved the main food source of people living in low wetlands, which I think is of great significance.

In these respects, it can be said that it is indeed an important discovery of human civilization. To talk about the important source of human civilization, as we all know, agriculture is the foundation of human civilization. We do the source exploration project, and agriculture, the types of crops, the proportion of crops and so on are the first important topics. So I think in this sense, it is indeed the invention of rice that provides a very important foundation for the emergence and development of human civilization. Therefore, I think the importance of the Shangshan site, in a sense, cannot be overestimated.

I think besides its continuity, innovation deserves our great attention. Of course, rice cultivation continues to this day. In fact, at least at present, it seems that there is the earliest mountain culture, which deserves great attention in China’s cultural history and civilization history.

Looking up the Mountain from Liangzhu —— The position of Zhejiang in the history of human civilization in ten thousand years

Zhao Hui (Senior Professor of Peking University Institute of Archaeology and Culture, Vice Chairman of China Archaeological Society):Up to now, we have seen a preliminary stage of going up to the mountain culture. In fact, according to the current findings, we may be able to divide local types. As far as I can judge, for example, the cultural outlook of Xiatang site and Qiaotou site is not the same, which is about 100 kilometers apart, and it is not very close, because there are a series of small basins in the mountains. When we went there in 19 years, we came back from Yongkang and flooded, that place is. The existing findings are not only a preliminary analysis, but also an analysis of the cultural features of different regions and the similarities and differences between the east and the west in the whole cultural distribution range. I mean, the division of our types may be like this.

Plan of Qiaotou Site-Qiaotou Huanhao Site

In fact, the materials provided by the work in recent years are not only these, but also provide us with a more complicated face of the era in which Shangshan culture is located, although it is not very rigorous at first. This is unexpected, at least I didn’t think of it personally. For example, it is a settled form, from the excavation of Xiaohuangshan site and the excavation of Shangshan site, there are still deep moats, which are very deep and large. It is a very complicated form, and its architecture has at least two architectural forms, some are large pillar pits, and three on one side are surrounded by a small square building. There is also a fence or a fence. At today’s exhibition, we saw that there is a square storage hole on the mountain. Is this a different architectural form? Then we saw the change of pottery in agricultural collection. There is a house behind the bridge, but it is unclear whether it is a sacrificial relic or something. Pottery pit by pit is put there. This is a bit like the situation in Cishan, Hebei Province, but not exactly the same, because people have a large area of pits for storing grain next to Cishan. There are tombs. This is not a very simple tomb.

Therefore, of course, this situation still needs our further archaeological work to enrich and perfect it, and we still need to conduct research in different fields.

Looking at East Asia from West Asia —— Shangshan Cultural Sites and "The First Village of Ancient China"

Chen Xingcan (Director of Institute of Archaeology, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Vice Chairman of China Archaeological Society):In fact, I have no research on West Asia, only a little understanding, and I will tell you today. As far as I know, the three areas mentioned just now include the Mediterranean Sea near the east coast, Syria, Israel and Palestine, as well as the Anatolian Plateau in the north, Turkey’s location, especially the southeast of Turkey, and the Mesopotamian plain where the two rivers meet. These areas are what we call West Asia in a broad sense. The origin of agriculture in these areas is actually a very long process, which is generally believed to have been formed slowly from 12,000 to 10,000 years ago. What is certain now is that by 10,000 years ago, all three areas had settled down and all had agriculture. This is different from ours, that is, according to Childs Neolithic Revolution, what is missing? What is lacking is pottery. Besides pottery, other agriculture, including the cultivation of wheat and barley, including the domestication of sheep and goats, basically existed in these three major sub-regions 10,000 years ago. What is different from us is settlement. It was very early to settle in the Near East and West Asia, which is also different from us. The settlement distance before the earliest agriculture is now 23,000-24,000, and small villages have begun to exist. These villages are all hunting and gathering villages, which have developed for about 10,000 years. It was not until wheat and barley were planted that real agricultural planting villages were formed, which is also different from us. There are also different pottery, including pre-pottery A, pre-pottery B, and a longer Paleolithic period.There is no pottery at all. Unlike China, we have had pottery since 20,000 years, probably from northern China to southern China, which is very different from us.

Therefore, from settlement, agriculture and animal husbandry, the animal husbandry I am talking about is actually raising sheep and goats. From this perspective, it has a series of characteristics different from China. One feature is that settlement precedes agriculture; The second characteristic is that agriculture precedes pottery making, which is indeed the characteristic of West Asia. So far, at least our existing archaeological materials do not have this. But China also has our own characteristics. As I said just now, we have invented pottery from the late Paleolithic period to the last Ice Age, which probably existed from the north to the south. This is also fully affirmed by archaeology now. Then there is agriculture, agriculture. In the past, the points that Mr. Joseph criticized us, except those before Peiligang and Cishan, which were discovered in the 1970s, were originally dotted, including Nanzhuangtou, including Lijiagou, which was discovered in Henan in recent ten years. In fact, there is no trace of agriculture now, but it is a wilderness site, and it may have been settled for a while. It is hard to say that it is settled. But in any case, this age is consistent with the early days of going up the mountain, all around 10 thousand years.

Now, from the point of view of settlement and agriculture, it is the most adequate to settle in the mountain. It has both agriculture and settlement even from the early days. Our settlement is basically certain now. Although there are no stone-built rooms, rectangular, round, partitioned houses or even houses made of adobe, we can be sure that the mountain culture has settled in houses since its early days. There may be other forms of buildings. Of course, the proof of their settlement includes all kinds of ash pits, pits for burying utensils, pits for storing grain, and pits for disposing of garbage. If you have been to Shangshan site or other sites to see the dense caves or ash pits, it is the same as in West Asia. There are a lot of storage pits in this period, which is closely related to the development of agriculture and population. In this respect, it is comparable to West Asia. At least from the archaeological evidence now, we can say that agriculture in this area is earlier than pottery and pottery, and agriculture is consistent with settlement.

However, from the point of view of West Asia, it took a long time for West Asia to develop, and then it reached the stage where there were agricultural villages in three areas. Mr. Wang Wei also said, is it true that the first phase of going up the mountain we are talking about is the beginning of agriculture or the beginning of farming behavior? Perhaps we can compare this with other examples of agricultural origin, and there may be a longer source, but we just haven’t found it. Because this thing is hard to find, because we all know that we have been looking for the former Cishan Peiligang for many years since the discovery of Cishan Peiligang in the 1970s, and we have only found Lijiagou after so many years. In this regard, maybe before that, I think there may be a longer history of farming or settlement, because we now find that the most important thing in the south is cave sites, which is the reason why we have not found it. I believe that people in the late Paleolithic period must also have wilderness sites. In fact, we also found a large number of wilderness sites in the early Paleolithic period. Of course, there are such sites in other areas, such as Hanzhong and Hunan, so I believe there must be earlier sites in this area. Of course, it has reached the end of the Pleistocene and the last ice age, but we can find problems that we can’t find. This is an inspiration we can get through comparison.

Tentative ideas on the application for heritage of Shangshan cultural sites

Chen Tongbin (chief planner and researcher of China Architectural Design and Research Institute):Let me briefly talk about the application for going to the mountain, because there are already 20 sites. I ran 18 sites this spring, and basically selected 6 sites as the first batch of sites to be considered for a series of heritages. However, there are still archaeological work to be deepened in each site, and I will talk about the composition of the sites later. We still have some work to do in comparative analysis. Compared with other ten thousand-year-old sites in China, how do you show that you are the most representative? Compared with similar sites in East Asia and South Asia, you may have to have a comparative analysis in time. Compared with the world agricultural origin heritage, it has just been said that there are some preliminary material comparisons, of course, further comparisons are not ruled out. Then, with the legacy of rice farming in the whole world, including the whole story, such as the Philippines, such as Hani terraces, what is the position of going up the mountain in this? According to the value analysis of world heritage, you should compare with all similar things at home and abroad in the same period to show your position in it. This is the next step.

In OUV’s life of highlighting universal values, our value standard III-witness value can be said, which can witness the origin of rice farming in the major process of human civilization, and this can be witnessed. The second is the exemplary value of Standard 4. According to the opinions mentioned by international experts and you, the elements of Shangshan Site can be said to be a model of Neolithic Age in the process of human civilization or you have more suitable words to further refine or be accurate.

It should be said that there is no problem about authenticity. When designing the ruins park in the next step, we must carry out no counterfeiting. The more original things, the less we can do more fake actions. This must be controlled.

Integrity is a big problem. As a layman, it seems to me that plant archaeology and agricultural archaeology were done before the archaeological work in the wild. Now, the integrity of the site and the environment is not concerned, and the hills that may be distributed are concerned, but how big the surrounding environment should be, this must be further determined by archaeology. There is also the integrity of the heritage elements. Just now, everyone mentioned that if our heritage is to meet the integrity requirements, its basic elements: stone tools can be grinded, pottery and cultivated rice, as well as settlement, as well as basic elements related to witchcraft belief, should be systematically and fully expressed in these sites. Looking down now, the stone tool unearthed in Lotus Mountain is very shocking and has never been seen before. The pottery at Qiaotou should be enough to stand out in the history of pottery in China. The rice field has not been found for the next cultivation, that is, the physical evidence. The place of cultivation may be found in the next archaeological step. I hope to find out. Settled settlements are now more fully displayed on the mountain and Xiaohuangshan, but I think the site of Xiaohuangshan is still severely damaged. It is difficult to choose what has been dug before, and it is also difficult to grasp whether a decent settlement site can be selected in the back. It can be said that when going up the mountain, Mr. Fu Daolian uses religion. I think we dare not use the word religion, so let’s use faith, witchcraft and belief. What we think of the site at Qiaotou now needs further explanation.

I think that in the next step of archaeological work, it may be necessary to deepen the work in these areas for the application of the World Heritage. Just now, Mr. Zhao Hui asked whether it is possible to make a systematic design for the next soup. In the future, this will be a particularly good site, which is worth doing in terms of the overall environment and its own obstacles. Next, the remaining protection and management guarantee is to formulate special laws and regulations, that is, a series of heritages, and formulate cultural protection plans, including management plans, and so on.

Finally, let me briefly talk about the significance of going up the mountain to apply for the World Heritage. This is my personal understanding:

First, we can witness China’s great contribution to human civilization in the world, the origin of rice in the origin of agriculture, which is a considerable contribution to breaking through national boundaries and nations.

Second, after the ruins of Liangzhu ancient city, it is another major cultural heritage that can directly enhance the cultural confidence of the Chinese nation. So when I went to the Shangshan site, I said that I would take the initiative to pick this up and promote it. This is the first one of all the heritage projects I took, and others were forced to do it, but I think this site is worth doing for it. Now it is neither a preparation list nor anything, but we have all maintained a close relationship with the government.

Thirdly, I think it reveals the contribution of the development of civilization in Qiantang River basin to the process of civilization in East Asia. I don’t know what to think about archaeology, but now we are doing some geographical divisions or something. Obviously, Qiantang River basin is one of the seven major water systems, which does not belong to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, but what comes out of it affects the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. This is not an independent water system in the great river basin, but a water system in the southeast coast, which has its own characteristics. The real great river basin may be disastrous in the early human days, and it may not necessarily be attached to the great river basin. Therefore, the development of the Qiantang River basin so early should have an enlightenment to human civilization.

Fourthly, it fills the gap of the origin of rice in the world heritage, which can definitely be said. I am surprised that even an important agricultural origin is blank, and I don’t know why West Asia can’t find their declaration point for big wheat.

Finally, I think this site still shows a landmark achievement of China characteristics, China style and China style archaeology, because as Qinling introduced, in fact, the more things found in ancient sites, the more we can find that we are different from East Asia and West Asia, so we are different at the root, so China characteristics are not empty, but we are increasingly discovering that we are not the same thing. I think the value of the Shangshan site group must be of this nature.

People protect the Yangtze River and benefit the people.

"Tianmen interrupted the opening of the Chu River, and the clear water flowed eastward." The Yangtze River, with its vast soup, rushed to the sea, washed away Tianmen Mountain, and brought a new atmosphere: the shore was green, the water was clear, the finless porpoise came back, and the industry was rejuvenated.

The protection and development of the Yangtze River is a long-term concern of the Supreme Leader General Secretary. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has held four symposiums in Chongqing, Wuhan, Nanjing and Nanchang, aiming at promoting the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.

On August 19, 2020, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed during his investigation in Maanshan City, Anhui Province that the construction of the Yangtze River Economic Belt should be jointly protected and not developed. It is necessary to enhance the awareness of caring for and protecting the Yangtze River, realize a virtuous circle of "people protect the Yangtze River and the Yangtze River benefits the people", and reproduce the scenic spot of "one river with clear water flowing eastward" as soon as possible.

Active actions are taken everywhere.

Hubei signed inter-provincial river basin ecological compensation agreements with three neighboring provinces and cities, 100,000 fishermen in Poyang Lake, Jiangxi Province were taken back to shore to change jobs, and Maanshan, Anhui Province set August 19th as an exclusive festival to protect the Yangtze River …

Nowadays, in the Yangtze River Economic Belt, a new story about protecting the mother river is being written every day.

High level protection

After the flood season, Xuejiawa in Maanshan resumed its former hustle and bustle. Looking from the railing, the sun shines lightly on the river, people and water depend on each other, and the city and water blend together, giving a panoramic view of an ecological picture with clear water and green shore.

It is hard to imagine that a few years ago, there were also illegal docks, yards and "messy" enterprises. In 2019, Ma ‘anshan took Xuejiawa as the breakthrough point, promoting the comprehensive improvement and ecological restoration of the 79-kilometer coastline on both sides of the Yangtze River, demolishing illegal buildings, vacating beaches, and planting trees for greening … After a combination of boxing, Xuejiawa was reborn and ushered in a new life.

Since the implementation of the development strategy of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, it is not uncommon to realize the story of "ecological butterfly change" along the Yangtze River such as Xuejiawa.

Guiyang, the capital of summer vacation, once saw a sharp increase in sewage discharge due to the rapid advancement of industrialization and urbanization. The water quality of Nanming River, an important tributary of the Yangtze River, was once labeled as inferior to V, and the call for "rescue" was endless.

The local authorities learned from this painful experience, implemented industrial "returning from the city to the garden", eliminated the "black and odorous water body" in the river basin, and built reclaimed water plants. After a series of comprehensive management of water environment, the water quality of Nanming River has reached Grade IV or above, and the urban rivers have basically achieved long-term stability. In 2023, Nanming River was also rated as a beautiful and happy river and lake in Guizhou Province, and was selected as an excellent case of beautiful rivers and lakes in the Ministry of Ecology and Environment.

As one of the eight deep-water ports in the Yangtze River, Chenglingji Port in Hunan Province was opened as early as 1899. In 2016, the development and protection of the Yangtze River entered a new era. This century-old port was broken down and established, ushered in transformation and rebirth. Nowadays, the first "capsule" fully enclosed bulk bin in the Yangtze River Basin has completely solved the environmental pollution problems such as dust and sewage, and has become a new landmark of Chenglingji Port.

Chishui River, which originated in Zhaotong City, Yunnan Province, is of special significance for building an ecological security barrier in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. In recent years, Zhaotong City has taken the road of ecological priority and green development, dismantled dams and small hydropower stations, closed coal mine sand and gravel yards, implemented ecological restoration of river basins, realized the transformation from point to surface and from water to shore, and protected a clear river from Yunnan. The fish species in Chishui River Basin (Yunnan section) increased from 36 species in 2020 to 43 species now.

In Chongming Island, Shanghai, "rare guests" such as river knives and finless porpoises frequently appear; In Xinjizhou, Jiangsu Province, the sight of fish in shallow water surprises tourists; In Xiangfudang, Zhejiang Province, 48 species of wild birds come here for wintering and breeding every year …

These are the best witness to the ecological improvement of the Yangtze River and the restoration of water functions.

High-quality development

Promote high-quality development with high-level protection and activate new kinetic energy for development with the practice of ecological civilization.

In Nantong Development Zone, "chemical encircling the river" was once a "stubborn disease". In 2021, Nantong Development Zone started the "Space Reengineering", anchoring the "3+1" industrial direction of a new generation of information technology, high-end equipment, medical health and new energy, and projects with high gold content came one after another.

Jiangnan Intelligent Manufacturing Industrial Park, located in Zhangjiagang, Suzhou, was formerly Dongsha Chemical Industry Park. After the closure of the whole system in 2017, more than 2,400 mu of industrial land was vacated, and industries such as intelligent manufacturing and new materials were vigorously developed. The average investment per mu increased by about 4 times.

The change of Jiangsu is the epitome of the transformation of old and new kinetic energy in the Yangtze River.

General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed, "Under the new situation, the key to promoting the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt is to correctly grasp the overall promotion and key breakthroughs, ecological environment protection and economic development, overall planning and long-term success, breaking old kinetic energy and cultivating new kinetic energy, self-development and coordinated development, adhere to the new development concept, adhere to the general tone of striving for progress while maintaining stability, and strengthen reform and innovation, strategic planning and guidance, so as to make the Yangtze River Economic Belt a new force leading the high-quality development of China’s economy."

The key to high-quality development lies in innovation.

On the banks of Poyang Lake and at the foot of Lushan Mountain, there are towering towers and criss-crossing pipelines, lush trees and seasonal flowers on both sides of the road, which makes it difficult to connect it with traditional petrochemical enterprises. In the water ecological scenic spot of Bandove Garden in Jiujiang Petrochemical Company, the production and emission data of enterprises are displayed on the electronic screen in real time. "Not only is the water quality monitoring intelligent, but also the long-distance emergency cut-off valve has been installed in the oil pipeline of the terminal to prevent a drop of oil and excessive sewage from flowing into the Yangtze River." Hu Rongjiang, deputy chief engineer of Jiujiang Petrochemical Storage and Transportation Operation Department, said.

With green content, there must be gold content.

In 2022, on the basis of independent research and development, Jiujiang Petrochemical’s 890,000-ton/year aromatics combined plant was successfully started at one time, completely ending the history that China’s aromatic core technology had to rely on foreign introduction.

In Sichuan, tens of billions of industrial clusters set sail from the Lingang area in southern Sichuan; In Anhui, the "new three" products have gone from Wuhu Yangtze River Smart Port to the world; In Hunan, exquisite bamboo products are exported to the world from Yiyang’s "sleeping" mine …

Looking at the Yangtze River, the background color of green water and green mountains is getting brighter and brighter, and the color of "Jinshan Yinshan" is getting more and more complete.

High quality life

Xiazhong Village, Wuling Town, Wanzhou District, Chongqing, is close to the Yangtze River. At present, it is the tourist season in the village. Along the way, waterfalls, deep pools, strange rocks and jungles are full of good scenery, which brings "good Qian Jing". A river with clear water has made the village beautiful and enriched the people-"After the introduction of tourism projects, the collective income of the village has increased several times. Last year, the number of visitors alone exceeded 150,000." In the words of Chen Shulin, the village party secretary, it is "very comfortable and comfortable!"

Because of the great protection of the Yangtze River, not only coastal villages, but also people’s lives have changed.

Since she married a fisherman, Chen Lanxiang, a "three girls" in Maanshan, has been living on a boat, living a life of "eating by the river": going out to fish in the early morning and going ashore to sell fish in the early morning.

In 2019, Maanshan City fully started the fishermen’s retreat to change production, and more than 10,000 fishermen including Chen Lanxiang in the city completed landing. After landing, Chen Lanxiang got a subsidy for dismantling fishing boats, lived in a resettlement house, and with the help of the local government, she started a labor service company named "Three Girls" in partnership, from a fisherman in the past to a broker today.

"Since the establishment of the company, the business scope has expanded year by year. Last year, the revenue reached 1.85 million yuan. When the business volume came up, the income increased, and the fishermen’s dividends were guaranteed. In three years, the accumulated dividend was 480,000 yuan." When it comes to the development of the company, Chen Lanxiang is really happy.

Cities thrive on water. People love and protect the Yangtze River, but at the same time, they also reap the gifts from the Yangtze River.

In Badong County, Hubei Province, "Mountain City Green Lung" is back. With the launch of children’s parks and hydrophilic squares, watching river fish, blowing river breeze and running trails have become a new fashion for Badong people to be hydrophilic and green.

Strolling through the Jiujiang urban section of the Yangtze River National Cultural Park, ships come and go on the river, the traffic on the bridge is speeding, and the riverside park built along the river is full of tourists. A picture of "there is a new scene along the river and Shuicheng people are in harmony" comes to mind.

The river keeps flowing and developing.

Spread out the map of China, and sit on the Yangtze River Economic Belt with a population of 2.05 million square kilometers and a total economic output accounting for half of the country. The shore is turning green, the water is getting clear, and the sky is turning blue. A virtuous circle of "people protecting the Yangtze River and benefiting the people" is taking shape, and the scenic spot of "one river with clear water flowing eastward" is reappearing.
