Rise to the sea, set sail and compete for first class. Since 2012, it has been a decade of passionate progress in Daya Bay, and it has been a decade of pioneering exploration in Daya Bay. Daya Bay bravely undertakes the mission and strives to build a domestic first-class development zone with high quality; Carry forward the great spirit of party building, strengthen historical self-confidence, keep in mind the initial mission, comprehensively promote the overall layout of the "five in one", work hard, focus on solving new development problems, and strive to write a new chapter in sustainable development and improving people’s livelihood and well-being.

　　From 40 billion yuan to 80 billion yuan, Daya Bay has reached four 10 billion yuan steps in ten years. In 2021, the GDP of the whole region reached 80 billion yuan, with a cumulative increase of over 85% in ten years; The added value of industrial enterprises above designated size was 53.33 billion yuan, a cumulative increase of 101.5% in ten years; The total tax revenue of the whole region (including tax collected by customs) was 50.46 billion yuan, with a cumulative increase of 67.4% in ten years; In the past ten years, the total investment in fixed assets in the whole region has reached 310.31 billion yuan, with an average annual investment of 31.03 billion yuan …

　　Groups of data are the imprint of Daya Bay’s solid steps in accurately and comprehensively implementing the new development concept. Nowadays, Daya Bay, which is sailing for the sea, is seizing the great opportunity of "two-zone" construction, building a world-class green petrochemical industry highland with high quality, and striving to become an important supporting area for Huizhou to build a happier domestic first-class city.

Daya Bay firmly adheres to the road of ecological priority and green development.

　　Entering Daya Bay, key national, provincial and municipal projects such as ExxonMobil Huizhou Ethylene Project and Hengli (Huizhou) PTA Project are in full swing. On the other side of Huizhou Port, ships enter and exit, and vehicles shuttle; In the newly planned 100 billion-level Daya Bay Emerging Industrial Park, the production line of Zhouming Technology Daya Bay Science and Technology Park, the world’s largest intelligent LED display base, is running rapidly; Wanda Commercial Circle, Canbang Plaza and Yitian Commercial Circle are three pillars, with towering high-rise buildings, various commercial centers and vigorous consumption … With the rapid economic and social development of Daya Bay in the past 10 years, a new coastal city with integrated development of production, life and ecology has taken shape, and the future can be expected.

　　On November 8, 2021, ExxonMobil announced its investment decision to the world, and increased the first phase of total investment of the project from $5.5 billion to $6.7 billion. With the construction of the project, ExxonMobil Asia-Pacific R&D Center has also settled in Huizhou, which shows the confidence and determination of this oil and gas giant to invest in Daya Bay.

　　In recent years, in the face of the COVID-19 epidemic and the complicated and severe challenges of the domestic and international economic situation, Daya Bay District has continuously optimized its business environment and promoted the construction of major projects at an extraordinary speed. Investing in the development of highland has become a new label of Daya Bay, and leading enterprises in Chinese and foreign industries are coming in droves. According to statistics, in recent years, 129 foreign-invested enterprises (projects) have been newly established in total investment of the project, amounting to 7.16 billion US dollars.

　　Sharpen a sword every ten years. Today, Daya Bay has become one of the seven national petrochemical industrial bases, and Daya Bay Petrochemical Zone has topped the top 30 chemical parks for three consecutive years. Daya Bay has gradually formed the orientation of "attracting large investment, attracting large businesses and developing greatly" in the development of economy, and has drawn a "investment map" of high-quality projects that are helpful to extend, supplement and strengthen the chain.

　　In recent years, Daya Bay District has made precise investment promotion around the industrial chain and further improved the "Investment Promotion Map". A set of investment project evaluation system consisting of 15 rigid quantitative indicators has been translated into English, Korean and Japanese, which has become a "hero post" for investment promotion issued by Daya Bay District to the world.

　　Keeping a close eye on the world’s top 500 enterprises and leading enterprises in the industry, Daya Bay gives full play to the leading role of leading enterprises such as CNOOC, China Shipping Shell, ExxonMobil, Hengli PTA and Guangzhao Lubricant, and conducts business attraction and investment promotion in the industrial chain, focusing on extending, supplementing and strengthening the chain. For example, China Merchants in Daya Bay said that the PC/DPC project of China Shipping Shell will become the only PC project in South China after it is completed and put into operation, forming a highly competitive PC industrial chain and leading the development of the C2 industrial chain. The third phase ABS project of Lejin Chemical will become the largest ABS production base in South China after it is completed and put into operation, and will continue to expand into a long C4 and aromatics industrial chain.

　　The advantages of these large projects are highly consistent with Daya Bay’s concept of building a world-class petrochemical industry highland and adhering to safe and green development, and are also a true portrayal of Daya Bay’s practice of high-quality and green development concepts.

　　The petrochemical industry has made precise efforts, and emerging industrial parks are also a thriving atmosphere. This vibrant park has attracted businessmen from the United States, Japan, Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, China and other countries and regions. At present, more than 100 projects have been settled, with a total investment of over 30 billion yuan. Well-known enterprises include BYD, Dongfeng Honda, Guanghong Technology, Sumitomo Forging, Xinlitai, Zhouming Technology, etc. The electronic information and auto parts industry has begun to take shape. "In the past ten years, with the vigorous development of Daya Bay, Guanghong Technology has made remarkable achievements." The person in charge of Guangdong Guanghong Technology feels that the progress of Guanghong in the past ten years is the best proof of Daya Bay’s development, from the upgrading of processing to intelligent manufacturing, and now it ranks among the high-quality listed companies.

　　"In the past ten years, the changes in the urban appearance of Daya Bay are amazing!" A senior media reporter spoke the voices of many people.

　　In Daya Bay Mangrove City Wetland Park, the plank road is clean and tidy; In the modern office building, energetic engineers are brainstorming; As night falls, the major shopping centers in the city are very busy … In the past ten years, the energy level of Daya Bay city has been continuously improved and the quality of the city has been constantly refreshed.

　　"Urban management should be as delicate as embroidery". Since the beginning of this year, the value of the entrances and exits of toll stations in Daya Bay has been higher, and the greening along the roads at intersections has become more exquisite, especially at night, with bright lights and charming scenery. These changes benefit from the implementation of the pilot project of upgrading urban quality nodes in Daya Bay District. With the issuance and implementation of the Construction Plan for Key Construction Projects in Daya Bay in 2022, Daya Bay District will carry out wall chart operations on 32 key construction projects, involving 6 road traffic projects, 9 industrial supporting projects, 8 human settlements projects, 7 people’s livelihood security projects and 2 flood control and drainage projects.

　　In order to comprehensively improve the urban quality of Daya Bay, Daya Bay has learned from domestic advanced urban management experience and practices, and carried out pilot projects to improve urban quality nodes throughout the region. This project includes the disc quality improvement project of Daya Bay West Area, the quality improvement project of Zhongxing South Road (Zhongxing Middle Road-Zhongxing Fifth Road Section), the elevation renovation project of Songtao Road (Xiaojingwan Toll Station-Shihua Avenue Section), and the quality improvement project of the entrances and exits of five high-speed toll stations such as Xiaojingwan Toll Station. The main facilities include the quality improvement of sidewalks and greening projects, and the lighting project of night scenes. The reporter learned from the Daya Bay Municipal Garden Management Office that the quality improvement project of each node in the project has been basically completed and the finishing work is underway.

　　Daya Bay will carry out the second phase of the urban quality node upgrading project this year, which will upgrade the quality of seven nodes, including Ximenlou of Shihua Avenue, Zhongxing Middle Road (Zhongxing South Road-Shugang Avenue) and Longshan No.1 Road (Longhai No.1 Road-Longhai No.3 Road). The main contents include pavement replacement, green belt combing, tree replacement and relocation, turf laying, micro-topography construction, and lighting engineering renovation and upgrading along the line.

　　It is understood that among the key construction projects in Daya Bay in 2022, there are eight residential environment projects, including Daya Bay Binhai Bidao and Landscape Construction Project (from Baguang to Fisherman’s Wharf), Daya Bay Lion Mountain Park Phase I Construction Project, Daya Bay West Old Community Reconstruction Project, Daya Bay Aotou Old Community Internal Quality Improvement Project, Daya Bay Aotou Old City Intelligent Parking Project and Daya Bay Second Water Purification Plant Phase III Project, etc. These projects are all being accelerated according to the set time nodes.

　　In order to improve the quality of the city, seize the opportunity of the times and practice high-quality development, Daya Bay has compiled the Urban Landscape Planning and Overall Urban Design of Daya Bay. "Overall Urban Design" has built an overall development pattern of "two mountains, one sea, five corridors and one network", cultivated a new platform for urban development at the level of business cards, improved the level of urban public service facilities, and improved public service facilities such as education, medical care, parks, culture and commerce.

　　There are more and more park squares around the people. In recent years, Daya Bay combines natural ecological conditions, with Tieluzhang and Bijiashan as the background mountains, Xiangshui River, Banzhangling, Hutou Mountain, Luoling and Mangrove as the core, Pingshan River and Dan ‘ao River as the main axes, featuring the coastal green spaces of Xiayong and Houzai Bay, and connecting with each other through the urban road greening system, forming a complete, rich, reasonable and urban green space system. At present, a large number of parks and squares, such as Banzhangling Park, Mangrove Urban Wetland Park, Hutoushan Park, Binhai Park, Fisherman’s Wharf, Huimin Square, Haiyun Square and Gold Coast, have met the leisure and recreation needs of residents.

　　In terms of commercial facilities, according to the layout idea of point, line and area, a large number of commercial complexes such as Wal-Mart, wanda plaza, Yitian Holiday Plaza, Canbang City Plaza, Century City Shopping Mall and Longguang Commercial Plaza have been built one after another along the main roads of the city, and citizens’ consumption experience is getting better and better.

　　In recent years, with the promotion of special rectification of municipal facilities, Daya Bay District has effectively improved the green environment of parks such as primary and secondary roads, kerbs, sidewalks, street lamps, Huimin Square, mangrove parks and coastal parks in accordance with the requirements of "purification, beautification and lighting", and the urban landscape has been continuously beautified. At the same time, improve the rapid response mechanism and the maintenance and acceptance mechanism of municipal facilities and landscaping, improve the traffic microcirculation, and make the management and operation of municipal facilities more smooth and effective.

　　Daya Bay District fully implements the responsibility system of "three guarantees in front of the door", implements three-level supervision, and includes "three guarantees in front of the door" in the annual inspection and assessment. At the same time, take the mechanism of creating civilized cities such as "hand-to-hand shooting" as the starting point to carry out rapid supervision and response.

　　A series of refined management has brought citizens and tourists a sense of identity and reputation for Daya Bay.

　　The water is clear and the banks are green, and gulls and herons fly in pieces. After ten years of renovation, the Tam O River has become a good place for citizens to relax.

　　"In the past ten years, the deepest feeling is that Daya Bay’s economy has developed, the city is more beautiful, and the ecological environment is better." In the past ten years, Daya Bay District has adhered to the concept of "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets", unswervingly followed the road of ecological priority and green development, and strived to form a spatial pattern, industrial structure, life and production mode of saving resources and protecting the environment. The air quality has been ranked in the forefront of all counties and districts in the city for many years, and "good mountains, good water and good air" is becoming a beautiful business card for Daya Bay District.

　　The policy of paying attention to eco-environmental protection makes the green industry stimulate lasting and abundant development momentum, and the beautiful environment makes the green lifestyle a regional green trend. In Daya Bay Petrochemical Zone, the positive and negative list system is implemented for the EIA approval of projects entering the park, and all those that do not meet the requirements of industrial policies, relevant norms and energy conservation and emission reduction will be rejected by one vote; Take the lead in realizing full coverage of ecological towns and villages in the city.

　　Today, the east, west and north sides of the petrochemical area are wrapped by 2.33 million square meters of green isolation belt. The park is also sky-blue and green. It is difficult to link this environment with the annual output of 22 million tons of oil refining and 2.2 million tons of ethylene, and the scale of refining and chemical integration is the first in China. Here, every production link adheres to the technologies and concepts of recycling, green and low-carbon, safety and environmental protection.

　　The high-end, intelligent and green development of petrochemical industry is a true portrayal of Daya Bay District actively practicing the "five development concepts". "Green water and green mountains" and "Jinshan Yinshan" are mutually integrated and win-win, which lights up the beauty of Daya Bay District.

　　Since 2017, Daya Bay Petrochemical Zone has been recognized by the National Development and Reform Commission as a key support park for recycling transformation of national parks, and by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology as the first batch of national green manufacturing system construction demonstration parks and national new industrialized industrial demonstration bases; The correlation degree of circular economy industrial chain in the park is as high as 95%, and 100% enterprises in key industries have carried out cleaner production audit, and four centralized sewage treatment plants have been built.

　　Daya Bay District continues to maintain high investment in safety and environmental protection, and has increased investment in environmental protection for many years in a row. In recent years, it has explored the governance strategy of "controlling, reducing and supplementing", that is, controlling source pollution, reducing total emissions, and supplementing ecological shortcomings, so as to comprehensively resolve the impact of development on the environment; In the prevention and control of air pollution, four sets of automatic atmospheric monitoring stations were built to monitor 46 atmospheric characteristic factors for 24 hours, and the air quality in the whole region was monitored and released in real time.

　　From January to June, 2022, the comprehensive index of ambient air quality in the whole region was 2.31, an improvement of 12.8% over the previous year, and the excellent rate was 100%, an improvement of 3.3 percentage points over the same period of last year. The air quality ranked second in seven counties and districts in the city. All the 16 rivers in the whole region meet the requirements of water functional zones, with a compliance rate of 100%, and the water environment quality ranks second among the seven counties in the city. The water quality in the coastal waters remains good; The water quality compliance rate of drinking water sources is 100%; The forest coverage rate is 44.37%, and the per capita park green space is 18.5 square meters, which has achieved the goal of ecological civilization construction with bluer sky, clearer water, more beautiful city and happier people, and presented a beautiful picture in which man and nature live in harmony and the economy, society and ecological environment complement each other.

Since September, Nanjing Children’s Hospital has received nearly 400 cases of influenza, which ushered in a small peak of influenza treatment.

Recently, the National Health and Wellness Commission held a press conference, suggesting that with the cold weather, it is the epidemic season of respiratory infectious diseases. Wang Huaqing, chief expert of immunization program of China CDC, suggested that influenza vaccine should be vaccinated before the end of October.

He mentioned that vaccination is usually better before the flu epidemic season, and it is generally recommended to complete vaccination before the end of October. If the vaccination is not available before October for various reasons, the vaccination should be completed as soon as possible in the follow-up so that the effect of the vaccine can be better played. Because it takes about 2 to 4 weeks for the vaccine to have an effect.

How to choose the flu vaccine? Who should be vaccinated the most? Who doesn’t recommend vaccination? About 13 questions about influenza vaccine, Jiangsu CDC authorities answered questions-

Q1. Why should I get the flu vaccine?

Influenza is not a common cold, but an acute respiratory infection caused by influenza virus. According to the estimation of the World Health Organization, influenza can cause 3 million to 5 million severe cases and 290,000 to 650,000 respiratory diseases-related deaths worldwide every year. Vaccination against influenza is an effective means to prevent influenza and reduce influenza-related severe illness and death.

Q2. What are the types of influenza vaccines? How should I choose?

There are inactivated vaccines (including split vaccines and subunit vaccines), attenuated live vaccines and recombination vaccines. According to the components contained in the vaccine, it can be divided into trivalent and tetravalent influenza vaccines. Compared with trivalent influenza vaccine, tetravalent influenza vaccine strains have added a pedigree of influenza B. Inactivated vaccine was injected intramuscularly, and attenuated live vaccine was sprayed intranasally.

The influenza vaccines approved for marketing in China this year include trivalent inactivated vaccine, tetravalent inactivated vaccine and trivalent attenuated live vaccine. People aged ≥6 months can be vaccinated with trivalent or tetravalent inactivated vaccine, and people aged 3~17 can also choose trivalent attenuated live vaccine. For people who can be vaccinated with different types of vaccine products from different manufacturers, they can voluntarily vaccinate any kind of influenza vaccine, and there is no priority recommendation.

Q3. When should I get the flu vaccine?

Usually, the antibody can reach the protective level after 2~4 weeks of influenza vaccination. The time and duration of the annual peak of influenza activity are different in different parts of China. It is suggested that the recipients should be vaccinated with influenza vaccine one month before the influenza epidemic season. If the vaccination is not completed before the arrival of the epidemic season, it can be vaccinated throughout the epidemic season.

Q4. Where can I get the flu vaccine?

Influenza vaccines can usually be vaccinated in community health service centers or hospitals. Vaccination units may vary from place to place, so please consult the local health administrative department for details.

Q5. Who needs influenza vaccination?

People who are over 6 months old and have no vaccination contraindications should be vaccinated against influenza.

Combined with the epidemic situation of influenza and the prevention and control strategy of multi-disease prevention, the harm of influenza is reduced as much as possible, and the following key and high-risk groups are recommended to be vaccinated in time:

① Medical personnel, including clinical rescue personnel, public health personnel, health and quarantine personnel, etc.

② Older people over 60 years old;

③ people suffering from one or more chronic diseases;

(4) Vulnerable people and employees in gathering places such as old-age care institutions, long-term care institutions and welfare homes;

⑤ Children aged 6 ~ 59 months;

⑥ Family members and caregivers of infants under 6 months old;

⑦ Crowds in key places such as kindergartens, primary and secondary schools and supervision places.

Q6. Who can’t be vaccinated?

① Those who are allergic to any ingredients contained in the vaccine (including auxiliary materials, formaldehyde, cracking agents and antibiotics) or who have had a history of severe allergy to any kind of influenza vaccination are prohibited from vaccination;

② Patients suffering from acute diseases, severe chronic diseases or acute attacks of chronic diseases, as well as patients with fever, are advised to be vaccinated after recovery or stable control of their condition;

③ Patients with Guillain-Barre syndrome within 6 weeks after previous influenza vaccination are advised to be evaluated by doctors before considering whether to vaccinate.

It should be noted that the following populations are prohibited from receiving live attenuated vaccines:

① Persons with low immune function due to drug use, HIV infection and other reasons;

② Children and adolescents who have been treated with drugs containing aspirin or salicylic acid for a long time;

③ Children with asthma aged 2-4 years;

4 pregnant women;

⑤ Those with a history of Guillain-Barre syndrome;

⑥ Those who used antiviral drugs such as oseltamivir and zanamivir 48 hours before inoculation, or those who used palamivir 5 days before inoculation, or those who used balosevir 17 days before inoculation.

Q7. What should I pay attention to after influenza vaccination?

After vaccination, you need to stay in the vaccination unit for half an hour. If there is no abnormality, you can leave on your own. After returning home, pay attention to rest, eat lightly and avoid strenuous exercise. If there is any abnormal phenomenon, you can consult and report to the vaccination doctor and go to the hospital if necessary.

Q8. Why do you have to get the flu vaccine every year?

First of all, influenza virus is prone to mutation. The World Health Organization proposes the recommended components of influenza vaccine for the next epidemic season every year based on the results of global influenza surveillance, and the influenza virus strains targeted by influenza vaccines may be different in different years. Secondly, the immunity of influenza vaccination will gradually weaken over time. Therefore, in order to provide more effective protection, it is recommended to vaccinate against influenza every year.

Q9. Is it safe to get the flu vaccine? Are there any side effects?

Influenza vaccination is safe, but like other medical products, influenza vaccine may also have adverse reactions. The common adverse reactions of influenza vaccination include local reactions (redness, swelling, induration, pain, burning sensation, etc.) and systemic reactions (fever, headache, dizziness, lethargy, fatigue, myalgia, general malaise, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, etc.). These adverse reactions are usually mild, and usually disappear on their own within a few days, with few serious reactions.

Q10. Can people with egg allergy be vaccinated against influenza?

Egg allergy is not a taboo in People’s Republic of China (PRC) Pharmacopoeia (2015 and 2020 editions). The current pharmacopoeia stipulates that the content of ovalbumin in inactivated influenza virus vaccine should not be higher than 250ng/ dose, and the content of ovalbumin in split vaccine should not be higher than 200ng/ml. There is no description of attenuated live vaccine at present. The measurement of egg protein content in commonly used influenza vaccines in China shows that the highest content is not more than 140ng/ml. At the same time, foreign scholars’ research on the inactivated vaccine or attenuated live vaccine inoculated to those who are allergic to eggs shows that no serious allergic reaction has occurred. Therefore, egg allergy is not recommended as a taboo for influenza vaccination.

Q11. Won’t you get the flu after vaccination?

In most years, influenza vaccine has a good match with influenza epidemic strains and has good protection. However, there is also a certain probability that the strain of influenza vaccine does not match the epidemic strain, which further affects the protection effect of influenza vaccine. In addition, influenza vaccination can only prevent influenza caused by influenza virus, but can not prevent such symptoms caused by infection of pathogens other than influenza virus (such as parainfluenza virus, adenovirus, etc.).

Q12. Can I get the flu vaccine while using antiviral drugs?

Inactivated influenza vaccine can also be inoculated during the prevention and treatment of influenza antiviral drugs. Preventive or therapeutic use of anti-influenza drugs will affect the immune effect of attenuated live influenza vaccine, and it is not recommended to use both at the same time. If you have used any other vaccines or drugs, including over-the-counter drugs, please inform the vaccination doctor before vaccination.

Q13. Can the flu vaccine be vaccinated at the same time as other vaccines?

Inactivated influenza vaccine, other inactivated vaccines and attenuated live vaccines, such as enterovirus 71 vaccine, pneumococcal vaccine, herpes zoster vaccine, chickenpox vaccine, measles vaccine and DTP vaccine, can be inoculated in different parts at the same time.

There is limited research evidence that live attenuated influenza vaccine and other vaccines are vaccinated at the same time. After vaccination with live attenuated influenza vaccine, other live attenuated vaccines can only be vaccinated after an interval of more than 4 weeks. (Wang Tian)

庆祝中国共产党成立100周年大会上，最高领袖总书记发表重要讲话，铿锵有力的话语声中，一幅壮阔恢宏的“百年答卷”徐徐展开。

△2021年7月1日上午，庆祝中国共产党成立100周年大会在北京天安门广场隆重举行。这是国旗护卫队准备升旗。

“百年答卷”主题深刻鲜明。

“一百年来，中国共产党团结带领中国人民进行的一切奋斗、一切牺牲、一切创造，归结起来就是一个主题：实现中华民族伟大复兴。”最高领袖总书记的精辟论述，高度概括了中国共产党百年历史。

△独家V观丨最高领袖总书记：为中国人民谋幸福、为中华民族谋复兴是中国共产党的初心使命

犹记得2012年11月29日，当选中共中央总书记仅15天的最高领袖同志，与十八届中央政治局常委一起参观《复兴之路》展览时明确提出，实现中华民族伟大复兴，就是中华民族近代以来最伟大的梦想。

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has put the distinct theme of "realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation" into all aspects of governing the country. Today, China’s GDP exceeds 100 trillion yuan, making it the second largest economy in the world. 98.99 million poor people in rural areas have all been lifted out of poverty and completely got rid of absolute poverty; Maintaining social harmony and stability for a long time and people living and working in peace and contentment have been praised by the international community as one of the most secure countries … …

Give an outline and read it, solve a volume and make it clear to all. The little "red boat" became a mighty "great ship", and after realizing the first century-long struggle goal, it continued to ride the wind and waves and sailed steadily to the second century-long struggle goal.

Great achievements in writing "Centennial Answers".

Focusing on the theme of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader comprehensively concluded that the Communist Party of China (CPC) United and led the people of China to create the great achievements of the new-democratic revolution, socialist revolution and construction, reform and opening up and socialist modernization, and Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

These great achievements have made China grow from a "sick man of East Asia" who is bullied by others to an oriental power that makes the world sit up and take notice, and from a bystander of the international system to a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development and a defender of the international order … … It was under the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC) that China approached the center of the world stage step by step.

After a hundred years’ history, looking back has changed a lot. As General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said, "China has been able to look down on the world", and Chinese has more ambition, backbone and confidence to make a solemn declaration to the world!

"Centennial answer sheet" contains great spirit.

People can’t stand without spirit, and countries can’t stand without spirit. A hundred years after the founding of the Party, a large number of revolutionary martyrs, a large number of heroic figures with tenacious struggle and a large number of advanced models with selfless dedication have emerged.

There is Li Dazhao who firmly believes that "if you look at the world in the future, it will be a world with red flags"; Yang Jingyu, who was in a world of ice and snow, ran out of ammunition and was alone in a bloody battle with the Japanese aggressors; There are Wang Ganchang, Deng Jiaxian and other anonymous "two bombs and one satellite" fathers; There is Jiao Yulu, who is in the late stage of liver cancer and sticks to his liver to keep working; There are Wang Jicai, Gu Wenchang, Nan Rendong, Huang Wenxiu … …

General Secretary of Supreme Leader once solemnly stated that the great spirits such as Jinggangshan spirit, Long March spirit, Zunyi Conference spirit, Yan ‘an spirit, Xibaipo spirit, Hongyan spirit, the spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, the spirit of "two bombs and one satellite", the spirit of the special zone, the spirit of fighting floods, the spirit of earthquake relief and the spirit of fighting epidemics have built up the spiritual pedigree of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people.

Nowadays, the Communist Party of China (CPC) people’s spiritual pedigree is further enriched, and the General Secretary clearly put forward the 32-word great party-building spirit at the celebration of the centenary of the founding of the Communist Party of China (CPC).

The great party-building spirit, generated with the great practice of communist party people from generation to generation, is the source of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s spirit, leading countless communist party people to wave upon wave and China people to write the most magnificent epic in China.

Feeling the great spirit of party building is like touching the historical pulse of the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s century-long development.

On the eve of "July 1st", the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee conducted a special collective study around making good use of red resources and continuing the red vein. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said earnestly: "The great spirit and glorious tradition of the Party are our precious spiritual wealth and a powerful spiritual driving force that inspires us to forge ahead bravely."

"Centennial Answer Sheet" continues to write a new journey.

The history of the Party is the most vivid and convincing textbook. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly asked all party member to repair the compulsory course of Party history, and he himself has taken the lead in learning Party history.

In October 2017, shortly after the closing of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made a special trip to Shanghai and Zhejiang to pay tribute to the site of the First Congress of the Communist Party of China and the Nanhu Red Boat, and led Comrade The Politburo Standing Committee (PSC) to review the pledge of joining the Party.

今年6月18日，总书记专程来到新落成的中国共产党历史展览馆，察看一件件文物实物，倾听一个个党史故事，又一次带领中央领导同志重温入党誓词。

回望奋斗之路，眺望新的征程。如何以史为鉴、开创未来？最高领袖总书记在庆祝中国共产党成立一百周年大会上提出“九个必须”，为新的伟大征程指明前进方向。

“中国人民也绝不允许任何外来势力欺负、压迫、奴役我们，谁妄想这样干，必将在14亿多中国人民用血肉筑成的钢铁长城面前碰得头破血流！”

“任何人都不要低估中国人民捍卫国家主权和领土完整的坚强决心、坚定意志、强大能力！”

…………

最高领袖总书记的铿锵话语，赢得了天安门广场上潮水般的掌声和热烈的欢呼声！

“时代是出卷人，我们是答卷人，人民是阅卷人。”建党百年，中国共产党向人民、向历史交出了一份优异答卷。

今天，向着实现第二个百年奋斗目标，中国共产党踏上了新的赶考之路，开始书写新时代的历史答卷。

At the commendation meeting, Yang Xiong said that last year, the achievements of major projects and practical projects in this city were gratifying, the shortcomings of urban management were remarkable, and the task of aiding Xinjiang was successfully completed, achieving the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" and "a good start". This year is an important year for implementing the 13th Five-Year Plan and deepening the structural reform on the supply side. Facing the new situation, we should conscientiously implement the general tone of striving for progress while maintaining stability, sum up experience, blaze new trails, roll up our sleeves and go all out to complete various construction tasks.

"Safety and quality are the lifeline of major engineering construction and must always be put in the first place." Yang Xiong pointed out that it is necessary to pay strict attention to construction safety, take effective measures, consolidate the main safety responsibilities of construction, survey, design, construction and supervision, pay close attention to key construction links, and strengthen the safety control of major risk sources. It is necessary to continuously improve the quality of the project, adhere to the international first-class benchmarking, comprehensively consider the design, construction and operation, adopt more advanced international quality standards, vigorously carry forward the craftsman spirit, and strive to create more excellent projects. To improve the level of civilized construction, the construction unit should further strengthen the overall awareness, focus on improving internal management, reduce related social costs, and minimize the impact of engineering construction on the city. The construction of rail transit stations should strive to occupy less roads and return them early. It is necessary to strengthen dust control on construction sites and roads, and urge transportation enterprises to reduce "leakage" in muck transportation. We should persist in scientific and technological innovation and promote the transformation and upgrading of the construction industry. To become an important carrier of scientific and technological innovation, major projects should promote prefabricated buildings in major projects throughout the city, and constantly increase the proportion of prefabricated components used in each project. It is necessary to speed up the popularization of building information model technology (BIM), and establish and improve the matching project approval mode and standard system. It is necessary to make more use of new technologies such as the Internet of Things and big data to explore intelligent life cycle management of buildings.

Shanghai leaders Ying Yong and Xue Chao, and Yi Li Pinghe Garrison leader Ma Jiali attended the meeting. A number of advanced collectives and individuals who made outstanding contributions to the construction of major projects and practical projects in this city in 2016 were commended.

It is reported that in 2016, 122 major engineering projects in the city were comprehensively promoted. By the end of December of that year, a total investment of 128.01 billion yuan had been completed, and 123.6% of the plan was completed at the beginning of the year.

　　Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, December 18th: Four Questions about Vaccination for the Elderly — — Investigation report from the front line of epidemic prevention and control

　　Xinhua news agency reporter

　　90.37%, which is the proportion of people who have completed the whole vaccination of Covid-19 vaccine in China; 86.6% and 66.4%, respectively, are the proportion of people over 60 years old and over 80 years old who have completed the whole vaccination.

　　With the weakening of pathogenicity in Omicron, the popularization of vaccination and the accumulation of prevention and control experience, China’s epidemic prevention and control is facing a new situation and new task.

　　The comprehensive group of joint prevention and control mechanism in the State Council optimized the implementation of the "New Ten Articles" of epidemic prevention and control, and accelerated the Covid-19 vaccination for the elderly. The Central Economic Work Conference just held also proposed that we should optimize epidemic prevention and control measures according to the current situation, conscientiously implement various measures for epidemic prevention and control in the new stage, focus on the prevention and control of the elderly and groups suffering from basic diseases, and strive to maintain health and prevent severe diseases.

　　Why should we emphasize the necessity of vaccination for the elderly? Does vaccination work? Is vaccination safe? The reporter launched an investigation on the front line of epidemic prevention and control.

　　On December 15th, at the COVID-19 Vaccination Point in Zhongguancun Street, Haidian District, Beijing, medical staff vaccinated the elderly with COVID-19 vaccine. Xinhua News Agency reporter Ren Chaoshe

　　How necessary — — The defense line of the elderly group is relatively fragile.

　　Li Cuiwen, 78, lives in a remote village in the central province. Children are all in the city. On weekdays, they send rice flour oil, and the vegetables are grown in their own fields. They go to the town to catch a gathering once a month.

　　"I can’t see outsiders." Li Cuiwen and his wife have not been vaccinated with Covid-19 vaccine so far. "Is everyone fighting, even if we don’t fight, we can’t infect us?"

　　Li Cuiwen is not the only one who has similar questions. In this regard, Xia Gang, director of the Department of Health and Immunity of the National Bureau for Disease Control and Prevention, said that there are quite a few disabled and semi-disabled people in China who live at home for a long time and rarely go out, but they may still be infected when they are accompanied by relatives or visited by relatives.

　　Compared with the previous strains in Covid-19, the pathogenicity of Omicron is weakening, but the infectivity is becoming stronger. The extremely fast transmission speed is multiplied by China’s huge population base. Even if the severe illness rate and mortality rate are already very low, the number of people at risk should not be underestimated.

　　During the epidemic in Shanghai from March to June this year, compared with those who were not vaccinated, the death risk of people over 60 years old who completed the booster immunization was reduced by 98.08%, and that of people over 80 years old who completed the booster immunization was reduced by 95.83%.

　　At the press conference of the State Council Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism held recently, Xia Gang introduced that according to the research, if the elderly over 80 years old are not vaccinated with one dose of vaccine, the risk of death after being infected with Covid-19 is about 14.7%; If one dose of vaccine is inoculated, the risk of death will be reduced to 7.16%; If three doses of vaccine are inoculated, the risk of death will be reduced to 1.5%.

　　"I strongly call for accelerating the vaccination of vaccines, especially for vulnerable people such as the elderly." Zhong Nanshan, an academician of China Academy of Engineering, said.

　　On December 15th, two groups of communities were prepared in Kangmei Street, Liangjiang New District, Chongqing, and the medical staff of the community health service center checked the information of the elderly who had been vaccinated with COVID-19 vaccine. Xinhua News Agency reporter Huang Weishe

　　How effective is it — — Survey data show that the risk of severe illness can be greatly reduced.

　　In Chongqing, Zhang, an 84-year-old rehabilitation patient, told reporters that he suffered from many basic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. He completed the third dose of vaccination in July this year and was infected with Covid-19 in November. After treatment, his condition was effectively controlled and he has been discharged.

　　On December 16th, in the home of residents in Honghe Road Community, Zhongshan Road Street, Yongchuan District, Chongqing, the mobile vaccination team conducted pre-vaccination consultation and physical examination for the vaccinated elderly. Xinhua News Agency reporter Huang Weishe

　　"Studies at home and abroad confirm that vaccination has a good effect in preventing serious illness and death." Xia Gang said that after being infected with Covid-19, the elderly are more likely to develop into severe illness or even death, and Covid-19 vaccine will benefit the most.

　　At most, beijing ditan hospital has treated more than 100 COVID-19 patients over 80 years old. Chen Xiaoyou, vice president of the hospital, said that the vaccination rate of these elderly patients is generally low, and the incidence of severe illness after illness is relatively high, especially in COVID-19, which is aggravated by basic diseases.

　　COVID-19 Designated Treatment Hospital in Hefei — — Ding Zhen, director of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of Hefei Binhu Hospital, told the reporter: "For some elderly people with basic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes, Covid-19 infection may aggravate the inflammatory reaction in the body, aggravate the condition of the basic diseases, and even lead to multiple organ failure."

　　Ding Zhen introduced that from the observation of their clinical treatment, the elderly who have been vaccinated are less likely to get worse and the time required for nucleic acid to turn negative is shorter.

　　In October, 2022, The Lancet Infectious Diseases published a research result based on the real-world vaccination population, which was released by the relevant research team of School of Public Health, Li Ka-shing Medical College, HKU. The study shows that the effective rate of preventing severe illness is about 70% for the elderly over 60 years old who are vaccinated with two injections of domestic inactivated vaccine, and the effective rate of preventing severe illness is over 95% after the third injection of intensive immunization.

　　On December 13th, in the Community Health Service Center of Baihedong Street, Liwan District, Guangzhou, medical staff made information entry and consultation for the elderly residents who came to receive COVID-19 vaccine. Xinhua News Agency reporter Deng Hua photo

　　Security geometry — — Make clear the taboo of vaccination and ensure safety to the greatest extent.

　　In the past few days, in Huanghuagang Street, Yuexiu District, Guangzhou, the average number of elderly people who take the initiative to consult and make an appointment for vaccination has exceeded 300, which is significantly higher than usual.

　　Yu Shu and Ye Yi, who live in Nongben community, had concerns about vaccination because of their basic diseases. After many door-to-door publicity by community workers and volunteers, Ye Yi was vaccinated under the health monitoring of doctors, and there were no adverse reactions. The next day, Uncle Yu also completed the vaccination. "Now I know that the previous concerns are redundant."

　　On December 12th, in Guanggang New Town, Liwan District, Guangzhou, elderly residents got off the convenient vaccination vehicle after receiving COVID-19 vaccine. Xinhua News Agency reporter Deng Hua photo

　　The reporter found in many places that the enthusiasm of the elderly for vaccination has improved significantly recently, but some elderly people are still worried about the safety of vaccines. Many elderly people admitted to reporters that they were mainly worried that "they are old and have basic diseases, which will bring adverse reactions after vaccination".

　　"Chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension are not absolute taboos for vaccination in Covid-19. As long as these chronic diseases are well controlled and in a stable period, Covid-19 vaccine can be vaccinated." Zheng Zhongwei, director of the Science and Technology Development Center of the National Health and Wellness Commission and head of the working group of the vaccine research and development special class of the the State Council Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism, said.

　　According to the situation of vaccine research and development and the practice of vaccination, the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council has defined the vaccination taboos of the elderly in the Work Plan for Strengthening Covid-19 Vaccination for the Elderly, including four types of situations in which vaccination cannot be carried out or postponed. At the same time, local health departments should implement the "four haves" requirement that vaccination units should have emergency personnel stationed in general hospitals with level 2 or above, emergency equipment and medicines, 120 ambulances on duty, and green channels for treatment in general hospitals with level 2 or above to ensure vaccination safety.

　　Step by step to carry out training on judging vaccination contraindications, and guide medical staff to scientifically judge vaccination contraindications; Well-known doctors from various specialties were transferred to form a vaccination consultation expert group to patiently answer various consultation questions … … Many places are refining the work of answering questions and doubts to eliminate the doubts of vaccination for the elderly to the greatest extent.

　　How convenient is it — — The "last 100 meters" is constantly getting through.

　　Every Tuesday and Saturday afternoon, it is the day when the "Medical Qingqi Team" comes to the door for vaccination in Pingguoyuan Street, Shijingshan District, Beijing. The "Medical Qingqi Team" consists of 5 to 6 street, community workers and medical staff, and is divided into two groups, each group can enter about 12 households.

　　"Conduct a health assessment first, ask the elderly whether they have basic diseases, look at past medical history, etc., and confirm whether the elderly are suitable for vaccination." Luo Yan, one of the medical staff of the "Medical Qingqi Team" and the medical department of Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, said, "After the assessment, we will further communicate with our family members, and after the family members agree, they will sign an informed consent form and vaccinate."

　　Similar situations have appeared in many places recently. A special session of Covid-19 vaccination was held in Jinbi Yayuan Community, Baiyun District, Guangzhou. 63-year-old Ms. Liu suffers from rheumatoid arthritis. The medical staff inquired about her physical indicators in detail. After assessing that she met the vaccination requirements, she was instructed to take the third shot of vaccine.

　　On December 10th, He Lingling (left), a nurse from Fangmiao Street Community Health Service Center, vaccinated the elderly in the community with COVID-19 vaccine at COVID-19 vaccination site in Yaohai District, Hefei. Xinhua News Agency reporter Guo Chenshe

　　Li Zizhen, director of the immunization room of the Community Health Service Center of Dongcheng Sub-district Office in jieshou city, Anhui Province, told the reporter that twenty or thirty elderly people have come to get Covid-19 vaccine every day recently, and the telephone number for consultation is also from morning till night. A mobile door-to-door vaccination service team was set up in the local area, equipped with first-aid equipment and medicines, and came to the door at any time.

　　Set up green channels for the elderly, temporary inoculation points and mobile inoculation vehicles; Medical staff with rich experience in diagnosis, treatment and vaccination are selected to form vaccination teams, carrying common equipment and medicines needed during post-vaccination observation, and providing home vaccination services for disabled and semi-disabled elderly people … … Many places are optimizing various convenience measures as required, and getting through the "last 100 meters" for the elderly.

　　For the country’s 267 million elderly people over the age of 60, every 1 percentage point increase in vaccination rate means that more than 2 million people have built a barrier against serious illness and death. "The Spring Festival is coming, and now vaccination usually takes half a month to be effective, which is of great benefit to prevent large-scale spread when people go home and a large number of people migrate during the Spring Festival in Spring Festival travel rush." Zhong Nanshan said.

Special feature of 1905 film network On April 8, 2022, a fantasy adventure film directed by, mads mikkelsen, and starring was released in national cinemas. As the third part of the Fantastic Animals series, the film’s reputation was low and its performance was not satisfactory.

In the quick question-and-answer session, Liu Yanyan, a visiting professor, director and screenwriter of Beijing Film Academy, gave humorous answers to the host’s questions.

The Fantastic Animals series is very interesting. As a series of movies, each one has a different style. In the first part, the relaxed and interesting magical animals attracted many audiences, while in the second part, it began to become deep and difficult to understand. In the third part, The Mystery of Dumbledore began to take the popcorn route again and played the emotional card. What is the problem with such a series of films with inconsistent tonality?

The tonality of the first Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is the closest to that of the Harry Potter series, and it does not show a complete adult magic world. Although the protagonist Newt is an adult, he maintains his innocence. "Fantastic Animals: The Crime of Grindelwald" began to want to turn the series to more mature and adult topics, and to change the works of children to a wider age, so as to be more convenient for the audience to substitute. For example, Newt’s brother works in the Ministry of Magic and thinks that he should find a decent job within the system, which is a copy of real history and a re-expression of discourse expression. It can be said that the fact that the tonality of each series is different is the business plan of the creative team, but there are problems in its implementation. For example, the role of Grindelwald has changed corners, and what happened in the objective world has affected the presentation of the magical world in the film.

Originally, Grindelwald was played by, and Fantastic Animals: The Mystery of Dumbledore was changed to mads mikkelsen. Liu Yanyan said: "These two are very good, but they are not the same type of actors. Depp, an actor, belongs to him sitting on the side of the road. When you pass by, you will take a look, because you will feel that this person’s temperament is very strange and always carries an unstable factor; At first glance, Micol Sen is the kind of person who has experienced everything. He is particularly calm in his heart. He has seen everything and won’t panic. No matter what kind of business leader he is, he must be the backbone of his business. Choosing two completely different types of actors in tandem will have problems with the coherence of tonality. "

"Fantastic Animals: The Mystery of Dumbledore" encountered a storm of temporary angle change, but the temporary angle change was not the key reason for the low reputation. Many bad reviews mentioned that the film’s plot was dull and lengthy, and its logic was weak. It put too much pen and ink on Dumbledore and Grindelwald, two close friends and enemies, and gave up the control of the main plot and the much-anticipated magical animals. What "hidden rules" does this reflect in the operation of Hollywood film projects? First of all, the most fatal problem is that they don’t stick to their original intention, bow to the flow excessively, are keen on speculating the so-called CP, encroach on the normal narrative atmosphere, do nothing in the drama, and damage the quality of the product itself for marketing. The characters in the film are quietly laid very deep in the first two films, and as a result, in the third film, they suddenly become just characters from villains, which is very unconvincing because they lose the support of the dramatic structure. The film’s handling of the transition from rhythm to combination is also lacking, which does not give the audience a refreshing feeling of climax scenes, and does not have the basic ethics of transition from combination as a commercial film.

Liu Yanyan mentioned: "Like playing house, everyone took the characters to the place where the incident happened, put them there, pressed a button to do it, and there was nothing beyond expectations. This is actually the amusement park mentioned by some excellent American directors when they criticized superhero movies in recent years, saying that this is not a movie, but an entertainment project in an amusement park. When you sit in it, you know exactly how to upset you and turn you, and the next movie is still the same.

To build a brand, the core logic needs long-term development, which is just contradictory to traffic thinking. One of the important reasons for the success of the Harry Potter series is that it has not completely bowed to the flow, but has its own persistence, winning by narrative and completely portraying the characters and the world, and at the same time, telling the story with great restraint, which will not change the plot because of the audience’s hope. Many British national treasure actors appeared in Harry Potter, but they often left after a guest appearance. At the same time, the United States produced a number of classic original remakes of movies, such as percy jackson series and very famous series, and their embrace of traffic was much higher than that of Harry Potter series. From this point of view, the interesting thing about Fantastic Animals series is that it came from the early days before the flood of Hollywood superheroes, and its transformation is epochal, and it can be seen that it struggled when the traffic was rampant. Liu Yanyan thinks: "Fantastic Animals is a good research specimen for the film industry." It can be said that the birth of "Fantastic Animals" series has two eras.

At present, the planning of the series is to shoot five films, and some viewers have begun to call for a new director for the latter two films. Can a new director solve the current problem? In this regard, Liu Yanyan held a negative attitude: "I don’t think so. If the director of the next film changes and there is no change, then you will know that the problem of the film is not the director, but the producer. The producers in Hollywood are very strong. Commercial films like this series are stable in business, and the directors don’t have much right to speak. The damage to a film industry is obvious. If you really get a son of destiny and turn decadence into magic, you need a very strong game ability with the producers, and the producers must be determined to decentralize before they can turn the tide and return the film to a more comfortable direction. "

"Fantastic Animals" series films bear the romantic feelings of countless magic fans. In other words, it is a series of magical films. I hope the producers can learn this lesson and stick to themselves instead of catering to the market, which will eventually damage the film and make people who love it sad and lost. Looking forward to the series rekindling the magic of magic, so that fans can continue to unite and believe in magic together!

　　In April 2022, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader visited Hainan and came to the "brain" of Nanfan Scientific and Research Breeding Base — — Sanya yazhouwan seed laboratory. The general secretary said: "Only by grasping the seeds of China with your own hands can you stabilize China’s rice bowl and achieve food security."

　　Nanfan, a large number of agricultural workers’ repeated migration journey. From September every year to May the following year, they come to Hainan from all over the world to take advantage of the unique tropical climate conditions here to carry out a series of scientific research activities such as crop seed breeding, hence the name "Southern Breeding".

　　At the moment, it is the season of the south. Let’s follow a rice seed to observe how it will grow from creating materials to breeding and seed production.

　　Sampling — — Sanya, Hainan

　　It took 10 years to produce a good variety.

　　Some have just been sown or seedlings, some are heading green, and some are golden to be harvested — — Walking into the Nanfan Base in Sanya, Zhongzhong Group, you can get a glimpse of rice at all growth stages.

　　"The advantage of Hainan is that there are abundant light and temperature resources, and we will sow here every one or two months." Shi Yitao, assistant of rice breeding in Zhongzhong Group, is a good way in the crop field. "Farmers will, we will;" Farmers won’t, and we understand. "

　　For a year, he guarded the experimental field like a child, and his broad face was tanned. "Water carefully every day to observe, prevent snails, birds and mice. I want every seedling to sprout and thrive. " Shi Yitao said.

　　It’s windy, rainy and sunny, which is a summary of the local climate by Nanfan people.

　　Sowing in the hot sun, sometimes, you have to hide from the rain four or five times for half a day. Whenever it rains, Shi Yitao is on tenterhooks: when the seedlings were young, he was afraid of the heavy rain and washed up the nutrient soil and washed away the seedlings; The rice is a little longer, catching up with the typhoon. The water in the field is more than 60 centimeters, leaving an ear on the water surface. It is raining against the wind and drowning again and again. "Danger is not afraid, and nothing is important to keep the seedlings."

　　In the corner of the experimental field, the iron fence was deeply embedded in the soil, and a small rice field was specially taken care of. "Specially rat-proof, afraid of gnawing materials." Shi Yitao gently pulled open the iron door and walked through a ridge, and the green and tall seedlings came into view.

　　"these are breeding materials R1607 with low cadmium gene introduced, which is already in tillering stage." Shi Yitao bowed down and took off a piece of leaf with tweezers, about 1 cm long, and carefully put it in a deep hole plate. "I hope it will be successful in one sampling."

　　From the summer of 2021 to now, this batch of materials has been planted in Hainan for three consecutive seasons, plus one season in Hainan in winter of 2020 and one season in Hubei in early 2021. It has been crossing, backcrossing and selfing for more than two years, and it has been five generations. Preliminary laboratory data show that the genetic traits of low cadmium gene have already appeared in future generations.

　　"If there is no problem with the re-inspection data, after maturity, you can select a trial plant with the best growth and the best laboratory genetic data from these 2000 strains." Shi Yitao said.

　　Just pick one plant, will it be too few?

　　"You don’t look down upon it, the seed setting rate is very high, one plant also has one or two thousand grains, and the ear of rice is half an arm long. This is also the reason why the rice variety Youyou 607 is favored by the market. "

　　"If you compare Quanyou 607 to an excellent ‘ Baby ’ Then R1607 is like an excellent ‘ Father ’ 。” Zhou Hua, director of rice testing of Zhongzhong Group, said that R1607 not only aggregated 8 rice blast resistance genes and 3 lodging resistance genes, but also aggregated 17 genes of sheath blight resistance, cold tolerance, flood tolerance, nitrogen efficiency and yield. Now, after introducing the low cadmium gene, even if rice is planted in fields with excessive cadmium content, it is low in adsorption or insensitive to cadmium.

　　How long does it take to breed a fine variety like Quanyou 607?

　　"It took 10 years from breeding to variety approval!" Zheng Ruifeng, the head of the R&D team of Quanyou 607 and the director of rice breeding of Zhongzhong Group, said that the creation of new materials is very uncertain. "There have been 52 cross combinations, and finally only R1607 was bred."

　　The R&D team will then introduce genes against bacterial blight, rice planthopper and fragrance, etc., and constantly upgrade and transform R1607 to become an all-around champion, so that the "baby" born will be better.

　　What is the most difficult thing in breeding?

　　Zheng Ruifeng replied in this way: if the varieties that show "leverage" are planted in other places for trial planting, some unexpected situations may occur, such as not resisting high temperature, low temperature, lodging, a certain disease, or a certain climate. Sensitive, "this will make all previous efforts and investments zero."

　　The early research and development is difficult, but the heart is still not hanging. Once it enters large-scale production, the strings in the heart will be tightly stretched. The bigger the promotion area, the more worried it is. "If farmers fail to harvest food, we will have trouble sleeping, and we will be relieved when we harvest it." Zheng Ruifeng said.

　　Detection — — Wuhan, Hubei

　　Breeding experts wear "gene glasses"

　　In Wuhan, Hubei Province, the genotyping laboratory of the Life Science and Technology Center of China Seed Group, the low cadmium sample sent from Sanya base, finally ushered in the key experimental link — — DNA genetic material was extracted and analyzed.

　　Zhang Xiaobo, the head of the laboratory, tapped the button, and the shaker, centrifuge and PCR instrument ran one after another. The data showed that the recovery rate of differential loci was 88.7%, and the recovery rate of whole genome reached 97.5%.

　　What do these data mean? "This shows that the low cadmium gene has indeed been stably passed on to the offspring of R1607. After the upgraded version of R1607 matures, a new trial production process can be started." Zhang Xiaobo explained.

　　"In the breeding process, the laboratory and the experimental field are closely linked." Ye Rongjian, deputy director of the Technology Platform Department of the Science and Technology Center of Zhongzhong Group, said that the genetic performance after the introduction of low cadmium gene is difficult to observe by experience. "Is cadmium adsorbed into rice seeds? The naked eye can’t see it at all."

　　"When R1607 was first created, molecular biological breeding technology was just beginning, and we took the path of traditional cross breeding combined with molecular breeding assisted selection. Nowadays, molecular marker detection and genome breeding technology have become very common, which is like wearing a pair of glasses that can see through the function of genes for breeding experts. " Zheng Ruifeng said that intelligent breeding in the future, relying on artificial intelligence, big data and biotechnology, will be more efficient and accurate.

　　Of course, the powerful function of this pair of glasses depends on the breakthrough of basic research. "The reason why the introduction of low cadmium gene has achieved results for more than two years is because the functional sequence of low cadmium gene is very clear." According to Ye Rongjian, there are about 50,000 genes predicted in rice. At present, about 4,000 genes are cloned and their functions are clear. It may take many years for a gene to know its functions, and the road ahead is still very long.

　　"The laboratory not only undertakes the task of detection and analysis, but also explores the mystery of genes." Nie Dongming, the seed administrator, pushed open the heavy security door, and a germplasm resource bank with more than 100,000 rice materials was presented. Here, at the temperature of 4 degrees Celsius, the seeds enter a dormant state and can be safely stored for 5-mdash; Ten years.

　　Zhou Hua said that the germplasm resource bank is a treasure house for creating breeding materials. At that time, Academician Yuan Longping discovered the special material of wild rice sterile plant "Wild Abortion" in Sanya, and achieved the breakthrough of hybrid rice breeding.

　　R1607′ s breakthrough in rice blast resistance is also due to the germplasm resource bank. "At that time, we were making a breakthrough in the technology against rice blast. I heard that the Chinese Academy of Sciences discovered a gene with strong resistance, but breeding experts did not have this material at hand. We went to the germplasm resource library to search and found the original material. " Zheng Ruifeng introduced that this peasant variety was used to cross and backcross with indica rice varieties, and a series of materials containing rice blast resistance genes were bred.

　　"If things in nature are lost, you may not find them when you want to use them in the future. The importance of the germplasm resource bank is now more and more deeply understood. " Zheng Ruifeng said that it is a source protection when its value is not clear and the advantages of germplasm resources are not tapped.

　　Zhou Hua introduced that China Seed Group and Yazhouwan Seed Laboratory jointly issued a list for the first-class scientific research institutes and universities in China, and Industry-University-Research jointly integrated gene resources, and there were more than 10 topics in the field of rice alone. In addition to further cooperative research on low cadmium genes, there are also cooperation in herbicide resistance and rice false smut resistance. "The goal is to make excellent rice varieties full of treasures."

　　Seed production — — Hainan dongfang

　　One mu of seed production can be used for more than 100 mu of fields.

　　"Yanmei, throw me the seedling!" "Good, then!" Fu Yanmei didn’t lift her head. A bunch of tender rice seedlings came out and flew over eight or nine women who worked hard, drawing an arc over the paddy field and accurately "delivering" it to Zeng Yabei.

　　On February 3rd, gancheng town, Dongfang City, Hainan Province, after the Spring Festival, seed production and rice transplanting have been busy for more than a week. The villagers cooperated skillfully, transplanting rice in the field, and there were bursts of laughter from time to time.

　　Such busy and cheerful scenes often appear in the process of seed production. In the whole seed production process, the most attractive thing is heading and flowering, which is also called catching powder.

　　At the end of October last year, in this field, the reporter witnessed a scene of catching powder. The sky clears up, the temperature rises, the male parent and female parent materials in the rice field bloom and spit, and pale yellow flowers are dotted with light green ears of rice swaying gently in the breeze. A 40-meter-long rope hangs in an arc on the ear of rice. The two workers each held one end and walked quickly forward in parallel. Where the rope passed, the ears of rice touched, the stamens trembled, the pollen floated to the pistil of the female parent, and suddenly a pale yellow powder fog was stirred in the field.

　　Wang Shiming, general manager of Hainan Nongle Nanfan Technology Co., Ltd. said: "Breeding is to bring a bag of seeds and carry a bag of seeds back. Seed production is different. One acre of seed production can be used for more than 100 acres of fields. "

　　There are many seed production processes, so it is necessary to plant seeds in reverse order to let parents meet this flowering period. For example, it takes 100 days for the male parent of Quanyou 607 to plant and 80 days for the female parent, so the male parent should plant 20 days in advance; After that, we constantly observe the leaf period, analyze the flowering period, and sometimes adjust it through water and fertilizer to ensure that the flowering period meets.

　　"Artificial powder driving can improve the seed setting rate of hybrid rice." Wang Shiming introduced that many years ago, there were as many as 100,000 people in Hainan from Pingxiang City, Jiangxi Province. In recent years, the country has revitalized the seed industry, and Pingxiang has also introduced measures such as subsidies for large seed producers and subsidies for grain production. Encouraged by this, many Jiangxi farmers who have produced seeds in Hainan have returned to their hometowns for development.

　　"Raising seedlings, transplanting seedlings, heading and pollination, harvesting and drying seeds, selecting seeds and packaging, I can play when I am young." Wang Shiming has been following his parents to Hainan for more than 20 years. His skin is tanned and he speaks slowly. In 2022, Dongfang City, where he lives, was recognized as a national seed production county, with a million mu of fertile land in Thanksgiving Plain. "Winter seed production starts at the end of December every year, and the seeds are harvested in April and May of the following year, which is just the time for the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River."

　　Affected by rising land rent and labor costs, Hainan rice seed production has been moving westward, from Sanya to Ledong Li Autonomous County, and then to Dongfang City. "The average annual land circulation per mu in the East is 1,300 yuan, but it has already exceeded 3,500 yuan in Sanya." Wang Shiming said.

　　In the middle and late September of 2022, Wen Mincao, deputy manager of the production department of Zhongzhong Agricultural Science and Technology Company, received an urgent task. When the seed production area of Quanyou 607 Hainan suddenly increased from the original six or seven thousand mu to more than 20,000 mu, his head was buzzing. Where can he find the producer and production base?

　　The Chinese company implements the order system and gives plans to manufacturers and professional teams all over the country every year. However, the farming season in the mainland has passed in winter and it is difficult to produce seeds; Although Hainan can produce seeds, it is also the winter melon and vegetable season, with less open space, high land rent and early seed delivery time. At one time, it is a bit intense to "grab the base".

　　Thanks to Wang Shiming’s contacts in many ways, Wenmin Cao took only one week to reach an intention on 6,000 mu of land and finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Seed production counties support the integration of production, processing, warehousing, packaging and logistics. With favorable policies, we have signed a cooperation framework for the integration of production and supply chain with local manufacturers, which can be produced locally, packaged locally and sent to the market, and can be stored locally if they are not sold out."

　　All the efforts are worthwhile.

　　In the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, farmers who have tasted the sweetness have long been thinking about good seeds. In Shilou Village, Wudian Town, Zaoyang City, Hubei Province, Chen Bangguo, a large grain grower, called Qiu Yunze, a seed dealer in Wudian Town, after planting winter wheat.

　　"Good seeds are in demand! When we tried to plant Quanyou 607, it was Laoqiu who came to sell it, and he guaranteed it, saying that it was not good to compensate my output. As a result, two or three hundred kilograms of rice were added to an acre of land. I am happy to invite Laoqiu to eat! " Chen Bangguo said.

　　"In the early stage, we will build a model field display, and invite large households to go to the scene to observe the harvest and yield measurement, so that more farmers can see the comparative advantages of varieties. In the later stage, collect information about high-yield farmers, make posters, and organize seedling meetings from seedling stage to heading stage to expand influence. " Speaking of the promotion experience of good seeds, Wang Hanyong, deputy sales manager of Hubei Branch of China National Seed Group, talked endlessly.

　　The field of hope, season after season, the story of a fine variety will be told constantly.

　　Planning for this issue: Yin Xinyu, Wu Yan and Cheng Juxin

　　Recently, the report that "domestic down jacket sold for 7000 yuan" attracted attention. As a clothing manufacturer and trader, Meng Zhuo is puzzled by this.

　　"Some high-priced situations are marked, and there are often discounts when actually selling." Meng Zhuo opened the e-commerce platform on his mobile phone and said, "You see that some of them have a price tag of 2,000 yuan, and after the discount, it will be 129 yuan."

　　In his long-term experience, the price of conventional down jackets has not risen for many years, and even showed a downward trend in the price war of involution. The prediction of this year’s warm winter also made the down jacket not rebound obviously when the consumption recovery was not as good as expected.

　　To this end, the first financial reporter conducted an investigation and interview, and the suppliers of winter clothes told the truth: the price tag is not the actual price, and the high price is not the price increase.

　　There is no price increase for the regular basic model.

　　Pu Xiaojuan, deputy general manager of Suzhou Fannuo Textile Co., Ltd., has the same feelings as Meng Zhuo. "The cheap down jacket brand, the overall pricing this year is similar to last year." She told CBN that the sales of most brands in various time periods are discounted, and in the end, they must cater to the psychology of the market. The general actual price cannot be ridiculously high.

　　Suzhou Fannuo Textile Co., Ltd. mainly supplies fabrics for high-end down jacket brands. Pu Xiaojuan said that in terms of fabrics, the price of conventional fabrics has not risen, which is basically the same as last year. The affordable e-commerce and lightweight down jackets corresponding to these conventional fabrics sold well in previous years, but this year they only lasted for a week and ended. The total amount is not as good as in previous years, and there is naturally no motivation for price increases.

　　"The price of down jackets sold domestically is basically more than five times the actual price. Some e-commerce platforms are even cheaper. " Meng Zhuo said that in proportion, light down jackets have accounted for the majority of sales in recent years, and they are also one of the most commonly bought winter clothes by ordinary consumers. The price of this kind of clothing has never risen in the context of rising global prices.

　　Wu Dongming, the person in charge of Hengxin Weaving Co., Ltd. told CBN that the price of the basic down jacket fabric has not changed. "It basically can’t go up, even if it has gone up slightly recently, it may only make the enterprise lose a little."

　　The person in charge of Jiangsu Tianwei Textile also admitted that from the overall supply, the market demand this year is lower than expected. In terms of price, "basically, it can’t go up unless new products and old products are reduced in price."

　　Taking into account the shelf life of the market, Meng Zhuo said that for manufacturing factories, the export orders for down jackets have been delivered this winter, and overseas sales are coming to an end in November, as is the case in China. "After New Year’s Day, there are basically few people who buy them … … Needless to say, the factory for domestic sales has basically slowed down at present, mainly supplying small-scale replenishment orders.

　　That is to say, on the one hand, the tag price is not the actual price, on the other hand, the high price on the market today is only some high-end or differentiated products, which does not correspond to the "general increase" of the industry — — A large number of conventional affordable clothing and even raw materials have not seen price increases.

　　Hu Kehua, deputy director of the Social Responsibility Office of China National Textile and Apparel Council, told CBN that the overall global economy was tired, and even though the China market was stable as a whole, there was no obvious improvement in terms of the prices of fabrics and clothing. Recently, the lower-priced down jackets have ushered in some sales due to the approaching cold wave, which has led to certain price increase expectations at the end of down and other materials.

　　Supply chain behind high price

　　"Last year, the same thing sold more expensive this year, but this year’s things are different from many before. (The pricing of different products is different) is not called price increase." Zhou Jianchun, general manager of Wujiang Shengwei Bauhinia Textile Co., Ltd. told CBN. Zhou Jianchun, who is also a fabric supplier of down jackets, thinks that the word "material" can describe their products more accurately than fabric. Because the material of down jacket now goes beyond the scope of traditional fabrics, it emphasizes more and more the sense of science and technology and new functions, and also incorporates materials such as nano-breathable film, volcanic materials and parachutes.

　　Wu Dongming also mentioned that there is no change in the basic model, and the price is increased by the deep-processed materials. "The fabrics used in winter clothes such as down jackets this year are completely different."

　　Pu Xiaojuan said that this year’s hot-selling and high-priced down jackets are mainly those with certain scientific and technological content and partial functionality. This is also the differentiation strategy pursued by brands in recent years in order to seize the mid-to high-end market. Correspondingly, it is the change of consumer demand — — From the original emphasis on warmth and appearance style, it has become more and more functional and scientific, and is willing to pay for it.

　　Zhou Jianchun also said that consumers’ demand for clothing has changed obviously, and the pursuit of technology and functionality of a garment has become a new fashion trend. "This year, the fabrics of the technology series and the corresponding down jackets sell particularly well."

　　"In the past few years, the prices of some conventional down jackets went down, and the involution was seriously playing a price war. However, the prices of down jackets of some brands have been raised all the time, and it is true that things have been done better. " Zhou Jianchun thinks that 70% of the differentiated competition of brands comes from the difference of fabrics, and "more functional and technological fabrics are needed to meet the needs of the consumer market". More functional needs to be realized by science and technology. For example, some down jacket materials can not only prevent wind, store heat and keep warm, but also prevent dirt and oil. When the materials originally used in parachutes are used in clothing, the strength can be improved by more than 1.5 times compared with the traditional ones. A nano-scale film can let water vapor out, but liquid water can’t enter, and at the same time, it has the functions of perspiration, ventilation and waterproof.

　　In addition to functionality and technology, under the global trend of low carbon, high-priced down jackets and fabrics usually need low-carbon environmental protection and renewable elements. These are directly reflected in the product structure, order volume and profit rate of the supply chain.

　　"We started this year, and the conventional lining materials are all renewable materials." Pu Xiaojuan said that today’s materials must have their own characteristics, and they cannot follow the crowd. Those traditional homogeneous materials are highly competitive and have little profit. To this end, since 2019, they have given up their original customers and conventional products, added independent R&D and sample management teams, changed the passive mode of doing development with business, and actively transformed into renewable and technological fabrics. After several years of running-in, they have also gained a doubling of the order amount in these two years. "This year’s orders are expected to increase by 1.75 times, and last year’s increased by 1.2 times." Prior to this, the annual orders were almost flat.

　　Traditional fabrics are declining instead of increasing, but for Pu Xiaojuan, the price of their new materials is more than 30% higher than that of conventional fabrics, which is a rise in volume and price. "Some friends’ enterprises also achieved the performance of last year in August this year."

　　Pu Xiaojuan revealed that they have a vest heating lining jointly developed, and one meter of cloth can be used on several down jackets. The recent orders have been added. "The original order should have ended in October, and now the scale of replenishment has doubled. A domestic brand of this down jacket may have sold more than 1 million pieces. "

　　Zhou Jianchun said that the company’s overall sales this year were the same as last year, but the sales increased by more than 30%. "The price of some (new) fabrics is 2-3 times that of the conventional ones".

　　Jiangnan, head of Romulan Group Outdoor New Materials Co., Ltd., told CBN that since 85% of the company’s orders are mainly for export, this year is inevitably affected by geopolitical and weak market factors. "Originally (this year’s sales) were expected to increase by 20% this year, but the actual forecast is only 8%." However, this growth is in the case of constant quantity, which also means that the price has been significantly improved because of the innovative transformation of outdoor fabrics and the introduction of new products.

　　Not only the high-end functional down jackets, but also the changes in the market and supply chain have made outdoor-related jackets sell better this year. "Many listed textile companies may not meet the overall performance standards, but the related sales of jackets are good". However, Jiangnan believes that, like down jackets with functions such as coping with extreme cold, this kind of clothing is a product with a small customer base in scale, and it is also a high-end subdivision that is less affected by the transfer of traditional textile and clothing production capacity.

　　Whether it is clothing or material manufacturing, another motivation to support high prices lies in branding. As enterprises in China pay more and more attention to brand building, the polarization of the consumer market will become more and more obvious.

　　"Now more and more brands and garment manufacturers are using the design concept of Chinese and foreign integration, and at the same time, they are more and more concerned about the brand effect, which will be expensive." Jiangnan feels that, more accurately, brands have brought about an increase in the added value of products, and there will be two extremes in the future — — Cheaper and more expensive.

　　Zhou Jianchun said that, like clothing brands, the development and transformation of fabric enterprises also need brand building, and in recent years, with the brand transformation of local industrial chain and the introduction of designers, they have also achieved certain brand effects, which is one of the reasons for raising prices. "Some similar fabrics can be sold a little more expensive than their peers."

　　In terms of design and style, Wu Dongming said that Chinese style elements have also become popular recently.

　　Regarding industrial transfer, Jiangnan pointed out that compared with Southeast Asia, China’s manufacturing industry still has certain advantages. First, the demographic dividend is not as good as before, but it still exists. Secondly, the completeness of China’s industrial chain is the most important reason, especially the functional fabric and clothing innovation, which takes time and experience to accumulate. Thirdly, China has a vast domestic market. Even if the export uncertainty increases, it can find a greater balance in the two-legged walk of domestic and foreign trade. Therefore, in addition to adapting to changes in market demand and brand transformation, they will also make a more rational global layout.

During the Spring Festival, for pet owners who have travel plans, "staying behind" pets has become a big problem.

During the Spring Festival, the orders of pet foster care institutions around the country increased greatly, and there was a situation that "one cage is hard to find", and the price also rose. Some foster care institutions launched SVIP rooms as high as 1299 yuan/day, and the price was comparable to that of five-star hotels. In addition to pet foster care, "door-to-door feeding" is also a more cost-effective choice for pet owners. During the Spring Festival, the lowest price for door-to-door feeding of pet cats in Beijing is in 100 yuan/time, which is about 25 yuan’s holiday fare increase compared with the usual door-to-door feeding price.

For businesses, it is natural not to miss this good opportunity to make money. Pet foster care service is becoming a hot business. Before this year’s Spring Festival, Box Horse launched services such as on-site pet feeding and dog walking in Shanghai during the Spring Festival. The original price was 128 yuan, and the snapping price was 98 yuan.

In order to make pets have a good Spring Festival, pet owners and businesses have exhausted their minds. How is the pet foster care business during the Spring Festival? Which companies have laid out pet foster care business? This issue of titanium media and titanium map brings you attention.

The price of pet foster care per night is equal to that of five-star hotels.

Home feeding is more cost-effective

During the Spring Festival, many pet shops received a large number of foster care orders. The demand for pet foster care in Shanghai pet foster care shop this Spring Festival has increased by about 30% compared with last year. In October 2023, customers in Beijing pet foster care shop began to book rooms during the Spring Festival, and in December 2023, pet foster care rooms were fully booked. The owner of pet foster care in Guangzhou said that he would receive more than a thousand foster care orders during the Spring Festival. It is found that in some pet shops in Beijing, the Spring Festival foster care service should be reserved 15 -60 days in advance, which can be described as "a nest is hard to find".

The strong demand has also pushed up the price of pet foster care. Some pet owners said that the cost of pet foster care for 8 days during the Spring Festival has even been equal to the rent of apartment rooms in Beijing. The data of several pet foster care shops in Beijing were selected, and it was found that most pet shops have introduced rooms with different stalls, and basically every foster pet shop is equipped with a camera for pet owners to check the situation in real time. In addition, cleaning and disinfection are also standard in pet shops. In some rooms with higher fees, its supporting services will also increase services such as massage, accompanying play, free shuttle and bathing in the sun.

In some pet shops for cats, the price of some ordinary rooms is 100-200 yuan/day, and the daily price of luxury rooms is as high as 500 yuan. The difference between "deluxe room" and "ordinary room" lies in the size of the room, the number of cats accommodated and the supporting services. The price of "Sunshine Suite" in a pet shop in Sanlitun, Beijing is 899 yuan/day, and the daily price of "SVIP Room" in a pet shop in Baiziwan, Beijing is 1000 yuan/day, and the daily foster care price exceeds that of five-star hotels.

In addition, the price of foster dogs is higher than that of cats. In the pet shop in Sanlitun, Beijing, the price of the same type of room type foster dog is 100-300 yuan/day more expensive than that of the cat. If the foster care is calculated as 8 days during the Spring Festival, at least 800 yuan is needed, which is equivalent to the cat’s living expenses for nearly two months. If you want pets to receive better services, the total cost of foster care can reach 10392 yuan.

It is worth noting that in addition to foster cats and dogs, some pet shops offer foster rabbits and birds, and the daily price is below 100 yuan.

In addition to pet foster care, door-to-door feeding of pets is gradually becoming popular. Before the Spring Festival, there will be advertisements for door-to-door feeding services on social platforms, community corridors, elevators and other places. Most of these people who provide feeding services are private, and such people will label themselves as professionals such as "senior pet owners and pet store clerks". Door-to-door feeding services include food cleaning, adding food and water, shoveling excrement and adding sand, interactive play, health monitoring and so on. The charging standard varies according to the distance, the number of pets and holidays.

According to the titanium media and titanium map, the service price of door-to-door cat feeding in Beijing includes five aspects: cat feeding service fee, basic door-to-door fee, fare increase per kilometer, fare increase for multiple cats and fare increase on holidays. Among them, the prices of more than half of the "pet caregivers" are between 31 yuan and 40 yuan, and the average prices are 35.9 yuan/time and 37.7 yuan/time respectively; The average price of fare increase for "pet tutors" whose door-to-door distance exceeds 1km is 6.6 yuan/time, and the average price of fare increase for feeding one more cat is 7.4 yuan/time.

On holidays, almost all "pet caregivers" will increase their prices, with the range of 11-30 yuan/time accounting for over 70%, and the average price is 25.7 yuan. According to the lowest price during the Spring Festival, the daily price of feeding a cat at home is 99.3 yuan/day. Door-to-door feeding service can be selected once every 2-3 days, and the total cost during the Spring Festival is about 200-300 yuan, which is more cost-effective and cost-effective than pet foster care shops that have to pay every day.

Pet foster care business continues to heat up

There are more than 30,000 related enterprises registered in China.

The data shows that in 2023, the number of pet dogs in China was 51.75 million, an increase of 1.1% over 2022; The number of pet cats is 69.8 million, an increase of 6.8% compared with 2022; The consumption market of urban pets (dogs and cats) is 279.3 billion yuan, an increase of 3.2% compared with 2022. In the pet consumption market of more than 200 billion yuan, more and more pet supporting services are applied. The pet business is said to be a gold-sucking business for enterprises, and more and more brands are eyeing the pet service.

Before the Spring Festival this year, Box Horse APP launched the Spring Festival pet door-to-door feeding and dog walking service in Shanghai. Professional pet companions have more than one year’s experience in raising pets independently, and broadcast live video of the whole process to the owner.

It is reported that the service can only be used during the Spring Festival, and the date can be from the 27th of the twelfth lunar month to the 7th day of the first lunar month. The main contents of the service are changing water and feeding food at home, walking the dog and playing with you. This service was completed by the cooperation of Box Horse and unigo, a pet service brand. The company was established in June 2022, and mainly engaged in pet bathing, pet grooming, dog walking and door-to-door feeding services.

At present, there are more than 30,000 enterprises in China whose enterprise names, business scope or products and services include "pet foster care", and most of these enterprises were established between 2016 and 2020. Among them, in 2016, the registered growth rate of "pet foster care" related enterprises was the fastest, reaching 96.8%; In 2019, the number of registered enterprises related to "pet foster care" was the largest, reaching 7880. In terms of geographical distribution, Shanghai has the largest number of "pet foster care" related enterprises, reaching 3898; In addition, the number of "pet foster care" related enterprises in Guangdong Province and Jiangsu Province also exceeds 2,000.

Whether foster care or door-to-door feeding, there are certain security risks. In pet foster care, it is difficult to guarantee the sanitation of foster care environment, and pet shop staff are not well cared for. In the aspect of door-to-door feeding, it is not uncommon that the property of the pet owner is lost and the door-to-door feeding personnel are bitten by pets during feeding. At present, the pet foster care industry is still in an "extensive" state, and there is no unified service standard for pet foster care in the industry. In the future, the pet industry still needs to be further standardized to reduce security risks, so that this service can develop more sustainably.

Seven kings of writing articles

Nowadays, more and more children’s puberty is ahead of their parents. What is the reason?

In addition to overnutrition, many studies now point to environmental endocrine disruptors, such as bisphenol A(BPA) in plastics, which can interfere with the endocrine system of humans and animals. But today we are going to introduce a stronger food-like hormone, which is widely found in grains, milk and other foods.

The name of this kind of hormone from food is Buddhist, but what it does is very coquettish. It is ZEN.

ZEN is a toxin synthesized by Fusarium fungi, and these fungi like grains best, so ZEN is widely distributed in moldy corn, sorghum, wheat and other grains, and is one of the most widely distributed mycotoxins in the world.

Fusarium, a common fungus that pollutes grains. Image source: wikipedia

In 2000, a report by the Joint FAO-WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) named Safety Evaluation of Certain Food Additives and Containant pointed out that 30-40% of the world’s grain was polluted by ZEN, and the pollution situation in developing countries was more serious than that in developed countries.

Many studies have detected high concentrations of ZEN in local grains. Regina Schoental, a pathologist at the University of London, pointed out that in the wet harvest season, the ZEN content of barley and corn in the barn can exceed 100,000 ppb (100,000 parts per billion), which is 1,000 times higher than the upper limit of ZEN content of cereals set by the European Union for direct human consumption.

So, what impact will ZEN have on animals?

ZEN is similar to the animal estrogen estradiol in structure, so it is also called F-2 estrous toxin. Yes, you are right. ZEN’s effect means literally.

The estrogenic effect of ZEN was first discovered by American scientists in 1926. Many people know that soy products also contain phytoestrogens, but ZEN is much more powerful than them. At that time, after eating corn contaminated by ZEN because of moisture, pigs became sick-their reproductive organs and behaviors were abnormal.

What anomaly?

Because the function of ZEN is similar to estrogen, the bad things it does on livestock include but are not limited to: estrus cycle disorder, premature estrus, abortion and stillbirth, false pregnancy infertility, low pregnancy rate and so on. Animal studies have found that most animals will be adversely affected by ZEN, such as pigs, cows, sheep and rabbits.

For example, after eating the feed contaminated by ZEN, the newly weaned sow will have estrus symptoms, such as redness and swelling of the hindquarters.

After the boar ingests ZEN, it will also become feminized, such as the chest becomes bigger, the balls shrink, the number of sperm decreases, and abnormal sperm is produced. ZEN has a similar effect on cattle and sheep. If the bull before puberty is injected with 36 mg of ZEN, the circumference of the balls will become smaller, the genitals will degenerate and the semen quality will become worse.

Even more frightening is that only a low dose of ZEN (as low as 1ppm) can cause damage to the reproductive system of pigs.

Because of the losses caused by ZEN to animal husbandry, ZEN is often called the second invisible killer in pig industry after aflatoxin.

So, will human beings be influenced by ZEN?

ZEN can be quickly absorbed by the body through oral administration or even through the skin. After entering the human body, it likes to stick to tissues affected by estrogen, such as uterus and leydig cells of testis.

For children who have not yet entered puberty, because their natural estrogen level is very low, they are easily influenced by estrogen in the environment, thus being induced into precocious puberty and making their breasts develop rapidly.

In November, 1977, a school in Milan, Italy, showed that the breasts of girls and boys became bigger. Researchers at the University of Milan then studied more than 200 boys aged 3-14 and more than 100 girls aged 3-7. In 1979, they published this research in The Lancet.

These researchers found that the breasts of children of all ages in this school are bigger than their peers in other schools, regardless of gender, and this phenomenon appeared in children aged 3-5.

These researchers believe that the reason why the students’ breasts are getting bigger in this school is that the grain and meat in the canteen of this school are polluted by estrogen.

Cereals can also understand, what is the problem of meat being contaminated by estrogen?

It turned out that shortly after the estrogen-like effect of ZEN was discovered, scientists found that low-dose ZEN was helpful to promote sexual maturity and gain meat in livestock. Therefore, ZEN and its derivatives have been sold as fattening agents for livestock for a long time. At that time, animal husbandry in many countries, including Italy, fed these synthetic growth promoters to livestock.

Zearalanol (trade name Ralgro), a derivative of ZEN, is now used to promote livestock fattening.

From 1978 to 1984, a large-scale precocious puberty incident occurred in Puerto Rico, which was attributed by many studies to the residue of ZEN or its derivative α‐ZAL (livestock is strong) in dairy products and meat products.

However, a study published in The Journal of Pediatrics in 2008 directly pointed the high incidence of precocious puberty in girls in northwest Italy to ZEN through blood tests.

Let’s look at the situation in our country. In 2012, researchers from Anhui Medical University analyzed the ZEN content in the blood of 78 children diagnosed with precocious puberty in 2009-2010, and found that the ZEN level in these China children was significantly higher than that of their peers without precocious puberty.

As more and more evidence supports the influence of ZEN on children and human reproduction, the World Health Organization recommends that the maximum tolerable daily intake of ZEN is 0.5 micrograms, while the EU’s recommendation is 0.25 micrograms per kilogram of body weight per day.

Although human beings are beginning to realize the harm of ZEN, it does not mean that we have an effective way to remove it. Another danger of ZEN is that it is a very stable substance, even at the temperature of 150 degrees Celsius, ZEN will not decompose. In other words, ordinary families can’t remove ZEN from food by cooking.

However, the traditional physical and chemical methods can not remove ZEN without destroying the nutritional components of grain, so ZEN detoxification of grain has become an agricultural technical problem.

The existing detoxification methods include enzymatic mildew remover, montmorillonite adsorption and so on, but these are only laboratory studies and have not been applied on a large scale. In daily life, the methods of removing ZEN are not beautiful, such as lime water soaking and chlorination.

Because of the reproductive toxicity of ZEN to human beings and livestock and the difficulty of detoxification, the European Union banned the use of ZEN as an animal feed additive in 1988. In 2010, our country also listed the derivative of ZEN, α-ZAL, as a non-edible substance (but it can be used as a feed additive). China’s national standard (GB 13078.2-2006) also stipulates the maximum limit of ZEN in feed.

So how can ordinary consumers reduce the harm of ZEN?

The advice of the World Health Organization is: buy fresh grains as much as possible, store them in a dry and cool place, discard the damp and moldy parts in time, and don’t store them for too long without eating.
