Professor Wang Shouming: Recalling the famous teachers in the Chinese Department of East China Normal University

Author: Wang Shouming (Professor, Department of Chinese as a Foreign Language, East China Normal University, librarian of Shanghai Literature and History Research Institute)

In the autumn of 1958, I entered the Chinese Department of East China Normal University, and suddenly I have passed a year. After graduating in 1962, I stayed in the Chinese Department to teach. Although I was transferred from the Chinese Department to the Department of Chinese as a Foreign Language, I spent most of my time in the Chinese Department of Normal University. Most of the teachers of Chinese Department who taught me when I was at school or taught me after work, except Xu Zhongyu and others, have died in the west, but the past is still often in front of me.

Mr. Xu Zhongyu made great efforts for the construction of Chinese Department.

On the evening of December 17th, 2014, the 6th Shanghai Literature and Art Award awarded "Lifetime Achievement Award" to 12 teachers, one of whom was Mr. Xu Zhongyu.

Mr. Xu was born in 1915 and is 103 years old this year. When I entered the school, he was supposed to be in his prime, but in 1957, when he was "speaking out", he advocated that universities should be "taught by professors" and "academic supremacy", so he put on a "Rightist" hat in early 1958 and was deprived of the qualification to go to the podium. I took off my hat in 1960, and I had to listen to my teacher’s lecture in 1961. What he gave us was "Selected Works of China Ancient Literature". In a big classroom on the third floor of the school’s literature and history building, Mr. Wang was stiff and his face was angular. In Mandarin with a southern Jiangsu accent, he told us about the book of songs, such as tenderness, sincerity, resentment and innocence, Liu Xie’s Wen Xin Diao Long and Zhong Rong’s Mr. Wang’s lectures are extremely rigorous, and he has a strong taste of "scholasticism". He often holds cards in his hand and solicits extensive quotations. Later, I learned that Mr. Wang was diligent in writing transcripts by hand, and accumulated tens of thousands of cards, accounting for more than 30 million words in calligraphy!

At the end of the "Cultural Revolution", Mr. Wang served as the head of the Chinese Department, later as the honorary head, and was also responsible for the work of the East China Normal University Committee of the NLD; During this period, I first served as the director of the ancient Chinese teaching and research section, then as the deputy director of the department, and joined the NLD. Although my major is different from Mr. Wang’s, I have more contacts. Mr. Wang was over 60 years old when he presided over the Chinese Department, but he still made great efforts for the construction of the Chinese Department with abundant energy. He attaches great importance to the cultivation of students, and tries out the exemption system, credit system and elective course system in the department. At that time, graduate students had not officially started enrolling students. He proposed the mode of "directional training", that is, senior undergraduates who are interested in their studies can choose their tutors according to their own specialties in some aspects, and after passing the examination, they will "directionally train" with their tutors. Mao Shi ‘an, a famous literary critic today, was a student of 1978 at that time. It was in this way that he became a "directional cultivation" student and was personally promoted by his teacher. At that time, some students had published some good novels or poems before entering the school, and they were very diligent in writing literary works after entering the school, such as Zhao Lihong and Sun Yong. According to this situation, Mr. Wang suggested that students who have made achievements in creation can use literary works instead of graduation thesis, which also contributed to the formation of "East China Normal University Writers Group". Because of my work, sometimes I go to my husband’s house, and every time I go, I always see a manuscript spread on his desk, either written by him or being judged by others. At that time, Mr. Wang was the editor-in-chief of three magazines, namely, Research on Literary Theory, Research on Ancient Literary Theory and Guidance on Chinese Self-study.He has worked hard for these magazines. In the early 1980s, Mr. Wang and President Kuang Yaming of Nanjing University jointly initiated the resumption of the course "College Chinese", which should leave a strong mark in the history of higher education in new China. The textbook College Chinese, edited by Mr. Wang, is a second edition, which is now the tenth edition, with a total print run of more than 20 million copies!

In the front row, Mr. Xu Zhongyu is the third from the right, Mr. Shi Cunzhi is the third from the left and Mr. Shi Zhecun is the fourth from the left.

In the early spring of 1995, entrusted by Qunyan magazine, I made an exclusive interview with Mr. Wang in his very simple living room and study. Mr. Wang talked about how he embarked on the literary road, the influence of Lao She, You Guoen, Tai Jingnong and Hong Shen on him on this road, his views on the literary situation at that time, and his experience in cultivating graduate students. This interview was later published in the 6 th issue of Qunyan in 1995. Through this interview, I have a better understanding of Mr. Wang, and feel that Mr. Wang’s mentality is mature without losing passion, heavy but still pure, and he is a person who is cold outside and hot inside, rigid outside and soft inside.

It’s a pity that Mr. Wang’s health has been in violation in recent years. I wish his old man a long life!

Mr. Qian Gurong, who does not compete with others.

Mr Qian Gurong (1919-2017) was also the winner of the 6th Shanghai Literature and Art Award and Lifetime Achievement Award. Mr. Wang was originally named Guo Rong, and Gu Rong was his pen name. When I first entered the Chinese Department of East China Normal University, Mr. Wang was criticized for publishing the article "On Literature as Human Studies" in 1957. Later, I heard that Xu Jie, Xu Zhongyu and Shi Zhecun had all been labeled as "Rightists". At that time, the main person in charge of Shanghai and Chairman Mao’s "good students" said that it would be boring to criticize all dead tigers in the future, so I had to keep two live tigers, so that my husband could escape, instead of being a "Rightist" and become a "fish escaping from the net". It was in the late 1950s and early 1960s that Mr. Wang gave us the course "Modern Literature in China". It’s been a long time, and I can’t remember the specific content of the lecture, but my husband’s style in class is still vivid. Every class, Mr. Wang always wears a suit and tie, a beret on his head and a suit coat, which makes him personable. It seems a little hot when talking, so I took off my coat while talking and put it on the back of the podium chair; Talking, it seems that it is a little hot again, so I take off the top of my suit again. This natural and unrestrained lens is fixed in my mind.

I got to know my husband after I stayed in school. After I stayed in school, Mr. Shi Cunzhi and Mr. Shi Cunzhi lived in the second village of Normal University. They were partners walking around Biluo Lake in changfeng park, and their personalities were similar. From Mr. Shi, I know that Mr. Shi is an outsider. In the early 1970s, my husband and I went to Dafeng May 7th Cadre School for education. On the rest day, Mr. Common sat on the dormitory bed or sat at the door of the dormitory with a small stool in his hand, reading "Shi Shuo Xin Yu". From this I know that my husband likes Shi Shuo Xin Yu very much. Two years ago, Mr. Wang distributed many of his books to the students, leaving only a few, but there were six different versions of Shi Shuo Xin Yu, which showed Mr. Wang’s love for this book! Mr. Wang said that the "Shi Shuo" is a paragraph, which is suitable for browsing at will. But judging from Mr. Wang’s personality, I feel that he actually loves the "Wei-Jin demeanor" that pursues the true self and is willful and comfortable. In 1987, I joined the NLD. Since 1988, I have served as the deputy director of the department, in charge of graduate work, and Mr. Li Ruifu has served as the head of the East China Normal University of the NLD, so I have more contact with Mr. Li. At that time, when recruiting graduate students, Mr. Wang asked for an essay in the entrance examination, which seemed not required by other professional tutors. To this end, I had a chat with my husband. He said: From the composition, we can see whether the student has "aura", and as for professional knowledge, it can be supplemented. My husband is very modest. Every time I go to my husband’s house, he always asks my aunt to make tea and take out sweets and cakes.When you leave, you must personally take me to the stairs and watch me go downstairs; Every time I talk to my husband on the phone, he always asks "Xiao Liu" (my wife’s surname is Liu).

In the mid-1990s, I was transferred from the Chinese Department, so I lost contact with my husband at work. But sometimes I went to his home. When I went, I saw him playing chess with his student Professor Yin Guoming on the balcony several times. Mr. Wang told me that his chess skill is not high, but he just likes it; And asked me if I would like to play with him. For one thing, I live off campus, and for another, my chess level is really poor, so I have never played chess with my husband!

The first one on the left is the author, the second on the left is Mr. Qian Gurong, the third on the right is Mr. Xu Zhongyu, and the fourth on the right is Mr. Zhang Shengkun, then deputy director of the Standing Committee of Shanghai Municipal People’s Congress.

In 2015, I met Mr. Wang at the commemoration of the 35th anniversary of the graduation of the Chinese Department of East China Normal University Night University in 1980, and his style remained the same. I asked my husband, are you still going for a walk in changfeng park? He said that when the weather is fine, he still goes every afternoon, but instead of walking around Biluo Lake, he just sits by the lake for a while. I asked my husband, do you still play chess often? He said, not often. Mr. Wang asked me with a kind smile, is "Xiao Liu" okay?

In November 2016, Mr. Wang attended the Ninth National Writers’ Congress at the age of 98. After Mr. Wang returned to Shanghai, I went to visit him with "Xiao Liu" Mr. Wang is sitting on a cane chair alone, watching the opera program broadcast by CCTV Opera Channel. He has obviously lost a lot of weight, but he is still hale and hearty. During the conversation, he said that he was not the oldest in this generation meeting, and Ma Zhitu was older than himself, but Ma Lao did not attend the meeting. Mr. Wang also talked with us about the recent daily diet and daily life; Also talk about Yu Jiaxi’s Notes on Shi Shuo Xin Yu and Xu Zhen’s Annotations on Shi Shuo Xin Yu. Of course, he also told "Xiao Liu" many times that he had not seen him for a long time. When leaving, my husband insisted on sending us to the door!

On Teacher’s Day in 2017, I called my husband and wished him a happy holiday. From the phone, Mr. Wang’s Mandarin voice with a little soft voice of Wu Nong is still so soothing and full of gas. At the end of the call, my husband asked me to say hello to Xiao Liu again! After hanging up the phone, I conveyed Mr. Liu’s greetings, and we also discussed that after the National Day holiday, it would be a little cooler and we would invite Mr. Liu to have dinner together. We have had this wish for a long time, and we have discussed it with his student Professor Ni Wenjian, but it has never been realized. I wish we must fulfill this wish this fall anyway! Who knows, on September 28th, I received Wen Jian’s WeChat, telling my husband to drive the crane to the west! I can’t believe it! However, after verification, it is finally confirmed that Mr. Wang is really separated from us forever! Unexpectedly, a phone call on Teacher’s Day turned out to be a farewell! Our wish to eat together will never come true!     

On October 2, 2017, I saw Mr. Wang again in the lobby of Longhua funeral home. He was lying among the flowers, still wearing a beret on his head, and still looked kind, but we could never hear his beautiful words with a southern Jiangsu accent again!

During his lifetime, Mr. Wang often said that he was incompetent and lazy. In fact, in my opinion, this is a kind of "quietism" life style that Mr. Wang was deeply influenced by "Wei-Jin demeanor", and he can be at ease no matter what situation he is in. Mr. Wang once commented on his teacher, Wu Shuzhuo: "His natural and unrestrained manner, open-minded mind, indifferent to fame and fortune, and his arrogant appearance of disdaining to compete with others have made me infinitely fascinated." What I like about Mr. Qian is his "natural and unrestrained demeanor, open-minded mind, indifferent to fame and fortune, and disdainful of competing with others"!

Two Mr. Shi

At that time, there were two Mr. Shi in our Chinese Department, and their names were similar in pronunciation: Shi Zhecun (1905-2003) and Shi Cunzhi (1904-1994). One was engaged in literature and the other was engaged in language. I stayed in school to work, especially after the Cultural Revolution. People often ask me: How is Mr. Shi in your department? At first I thought I was asking Shi Cunzhi, but later I found out that many of them were asking Shi Zhecun, because both gentlemen were surnamed Shi!

Mr. Shi met me shortly after I entered school, and he was also my tutor after I stayed in school. Mr. Wang is Geng Jie, rigorous in his studies, poor in life and sincere in treating others. He joined the revolution in his early years and was legendary. I have been in contact with my husband for a long time, and he has a great influence on my study and life. I have written another short article about Mr. Shi, which was published in the third issue of Century in 2017, so I won’t say much here.

Mr. Shi is famous. However, I have never been in contact with Mr. Shi during my four years in college, and I have never been told by him. I only occasionally saw him in a corner of the reference room of the Chinese Department. He was hunched over sorting cards, sometimes with a pipe in his mouth. It gives me the feeling that he is not like a "foreign market villain" at all. Knowing that Mr Wang had translated the novel Under the Yoke by Bulgarian writer Ivan Vazov, he borrowed this book from the library to read. The real contact with Mr. Wang was after the beginning of the "Cultural Revolution". During the "Cultural Revolution", I also worked in the reference room for a while, and I began to have a "nodding acquaintance" with my husband. I gradually discovered that he could not only translate, but also write novels, and was proficient in classical literature and the study of inscriptions. He was a knowledgeable and humorous person. I also heard that Mr. Wang joined CY in his early years, that is, the Communist Youth League, and later left for some reason. After the Cultural Revolution, I lived in Taoyuan Square, Yuyuan Road, and my husband’s "Beishan Building" was above the post office next to Qishan Village, Yuyuan Road, not far apart. I always went to pay my respects to my husband during the New Year. Every time I go in through the back door of the post office, because the stairs are dark and my husband’s house is hit, many bookstores can’t put it down, so I have to pile it up at the corner of the stairs, so I have to be extra careful when going up the stairs. Mr. Wang’s room faces south, with a big desk by the window and a small bed on the north wall. Sometimes he sits at a desk full of books and newspapers in a nightgown with a cigar in his hand; Sometimes he leans against the small bed with a hair-pressing hat, holding a book in his hand, and the light on the shelf of the iron bed is still on. Mr. Wang is hard of hearing, so you must talk to him loudly.The topic of his conversation is all over the world. Once I talked about Zhang Ailing, there was a craze for Zhang Ailing at that time, and my husband thought that she was too high. Because I am not engaged in modern literature, and I have read very few novels, I have not been able to have a deep talk with my husband. On another occasion, Mr. Wang talked about Shikumen in Shanghai. He said that this kind of building is the best, and three generations live together happily! According to the students who have listened to Mr. Wang’s class, he never gave a lecture and didn’t follow the script. He gave a lecture on Biography of Xiang Yu for a class, and copied one of the vertical editions of Historical Records from three annotation books as a teaching material. During the lecture, he not only talked about the text, but also talked about the historical and cultural knowledge in the annotations, quoting classics and quoting extensively. After one semester, a biography of Xiang Yu was not finished, but the students benefited a lot. In 1993, Mr. Mi Shou won the Shanghai Outstanding Contribution Award for Literature and Art, but he said that this award should be awarded to young people, which means nothing to me.

The two Mr. Shi have different personalities, Mr. Shi is unsmiling and Mr. Shi is humorous, but I think they still have some similarities: they both participated in the revolution in their early years; People are honest and sincere; Everyone can be awarded the last place.

Everyone gathered in the teaching and research section of classical literature.

When I was studying, the teaching staff in the Classical Literature Department of East China Normal University was very strong, and there were many people who taught us.

It was Mr Cheng Junying (1901-1993) who taught The Book of Songs. Mr. Wang graduated from Beijing Women’s Normal College, was taught by Li Dazhao, Hu Shi, Huang Kan, etc. He participated in the May 4th Movement, and heard that he played the role of Liu Lanzhi in the drama Peacock Flying Southeast directed by Li Dazhao. When she was in Beijing Women’s Normal University, she and her classmates Lu Yin, Wang Shiying and Chen Dingxiu were called "Four Childes". In 1923, Lu Yin, a female writer, wrote the novel "Old Friends on the Seaside" with the theme of "Four Childes". Mr. Wang is not tall, fair-skinned, and his behavior shows the demeanor of a good family. In the pulpit, she read "Guan Guanluo dove, in the river continent, a gentle and graceful lady, a good gentleman" in a sweet voice, which left a very deep impression on us. Since the early 1960 s, she has served as the deputy director of the department, and she is very diligent in her work. She can often be seen bending over her desk in the office of the department head. For our young teachers, we are always considerate and caring for women. Mr. Wang is weak in appearance, but in fact he has a tenacity in his heart. During the Anti-Japanese War, she was in Shanghai and encouraged each other with her close friend Zheng Zhenduo and others to "maintain national integrity". At that time, in order to repay the medical expenses of treating the eldest son, I reluctantly sold the books such as Four Reserves in my family, and I would never do anything shameful. After the Anti-Japanese War, the wooing of Kuomintang dignitaries and the invitation of friends of the National Social Party to be officials were all ignored. In 1964, her husband, Professor Zhang Yaoxiang, a famous psychologist, died, and I went to the funeral home of Wan Guo to attend the memorial service. She had three daughters and two men, but both of them died before her. Even in this situation,Mr. Wang still works and lives tenaciously. She has made great achievements in the study of The Book of Songs, and her works published successively in her later years, such as Random Talk about The Book of Songs, Translation Notes of The Book of Songs, Selected Translation of The Book of Songs and Analysis of The Book of Songs, have been well received by academic circles. In the early 1990s, she also wrote the novel "Colorful Lost in England", as a sequel to "Old Friends by the Seaside", which wrote the legendary life of "Four Childes".

Xu Zhen Tuan (1901-1986) taught ancient poetry. Mr. Wang graduated from Nanjing Normal College and studied poetry and music from Wu Mei. I remember one night in a classroom in the Literature and History Building, when Mr. Wang told us a poem, his expression was very bleak and his tone was very cold. When he talked about the words "Peach blossoms after horses and snow before horses", he was doubly sad. This scene is unforgettable so far. Later, I learned that it was the day before that Mr. Wang’s only son died unexpectedly in Beijing! Although Mr. Wang teaches ancient literature, he is actually very interested in foreign literature. According to Mr. Wang, when he was studying at the university, his translation was praised by Wu Mi, who taught western literature at that time. Mr. Wang is fluent in English, French, German, Italian, Russian and Spanish, and is also proficient in Esperanto. In a lecture, Mr. Wang told us that he started learning Italian with an Italian version of Dante’s Divine Comedy and an Italian-English Dictionary. He told us that he had studied Japanese several times, but because of his resentment against Japanese aggression, he failed to learn it in the end. He told us his views on a famous translator’s translation of Madame Bovary by French writer Flaubert. He thought that the translator’s translation language was very fluent and easy to read, but his style was quite different from the original, and he translated the aristocratic language of the original into the language of the Tianqiao entertainer, and so on. Rumor has it that just after the "Cultural Revolution", the school had not arranged Mr. Wang’s work well. At that time, a department in Beijing suggested that if East China Normal University didn’t need this person, it was ready to transfer him to Beijing to work in Esperanto.Mr. Yin has translated and introduced a large number of China’s literary works to foreign countries in Esperanto, and also created some poems in Esperanto, which have spread abroad and are very influential internationally. Of course, the school still didn’t let Mr. Wang go north. In 1982, the Institute of Ancient Books Arrangement was established in Normal University, and Mr. Wang was the first director.

Mr. Zhao Shanzhi (1911-1988) also taught ancient literature. Mr. Wang graduated from Guanghua University. He taught us Fan Zhen’s Theory of Deity Extinction during the Qi and Liang Dynasties in the Southern Dynasties, read "the essence of form and the use of form" in soft Mandarin with Suzhou accent, and explained Fan Zhen’s atheistic thoughts to us. Before the Cultural Revolution, Mr. Wang was the dean of the department. At that time, he was always the first to appear in the office every morning and the last to leave the office after work. He is very concerned about the growth of young teachers, from time to time to listen to some young teachers’ lessons and make suggestions. During the difficult period in the early 1960s, some young teachers had a hard life. From time to time, he would greet several teachers to have lunch together in the canteen, as if inadvertently ordering more dishes to improve their food. Sometimes he would take out some fruits from his hand-held artificial leather bag and say that he couldn’t eat them, so he would give them to everyone. Mr. Wang is kind to young teachers, but he is very strict with himself. In difficult times, he felt that he was a Communist party member and should share the sorrow for the country, so he voluntarily paid the party dues 100 yuan every month, which was already a large amount at that time, accounting for almost half of his salary. Besides, Mr. Wang’s family burden was not light. His son died young due to illness, leaving his young grandchildren to live with him. After the Cultural Revolution, I once went to my husband’s house and accidentally talked about the book "Caigen Tan". He explained that this book by Hong Yingming was very interesting, but it was not well collated. I heard that the Japanese paid more attention to this book.They learned a lot of business management ideas from it. During that time, I was teaching Chinese to the Japanese Consul General in Shanghai. There was a word hanging in his office, which was written in Caigen Tan: "The wind came to disperse bamboo, and the wind passed without leaving a sound; The geese cross the cold pool, and the geese go to the pool without taking pictures. " I told the Consul General about the book Caigen Tan, and he said that many Japanese entrepreneurs really attached great importance to this book. Later, he helped me to bring several different versions of Caigen Tan from Japan. I took these books to my husband’s house. My husband talked with me about some ideas that I hope our school can collate and verify the book. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, I have not been able to finish what my husband told me. I am deeply ashamed!

A teacher who teaches teaching materials and methods

Normal students must learn to teach, so Chinese teaching materials and methods are compulsory courses. Mr. Ye Baifeng (1913-1986) taught us the teaching method of textbooks.

Mr. Ye is a descendant of Tongcheng, with a good family background. It is said that he studied poetry and calligraphy from Zheng Xiaoxu in his early years. He is of medium height and slightly thin. He had an operation because of lung disease, his left lung was removed and two ribs were removed, so his shoulders were a little high and his shoulders were low. He told us in class that a qualified middle school teacher must have three things: he can write a good blackboard writing, he can speak standard Mandarin, and he must have a hundred ancient poems in his stomach. Once, he told us about his teaching in a middle school before liberation: he stepped on the pulpit and put his speech on the platform. This day, he was going to talk about "Zheng Boke was in the middle of Zuo Zhuan". He wrote a topic on the blackboard with chalk, and when he turned around, he found that the speech on the table was actually missing! He knew this was a naughty student, weighing himself up, so he took his time, turned around again, and wrote on the blackboard with chalk, "At the beginning, Zheng Wugong married Yu Shen, saying Wu Jiang. Sheng Zhuang Gong and Gong Shu Duan. Zhuang Gong was born, surprised by his style, hence the name "Born". He wrote the whole article on the blackboard word for word, so the students took it orally and listened to it. Mr. Wang said that when you go to a restaurant, you don’t know the taste of the food just by looking at the menu without tasting it, so the teacher must "get into the water" and write it by himself. Mr. Wang instructed a young teacher to write in classical Chinese. The young teacher used the word "wholeheartedly" in his article, and Mr. Wang changed it to "all his heart" from the perspective of classical Chinese.

Some of the fragments mentioned above are just snow mud claws. What I feel happy in my life is that I can be kissed by many giants in college. In addition to the above-mentioned teachers, Wang Xiyan, a famous writer, told us about Lu Xun; Rui Liu, a disciple of Huang Kan, told us about ancient Chinese; Mr. Ding Mianzai and Mr. Lin Xiangmei, linguists, told us about modern Chinese; Mr. Wan Yunjun, a disciple of Wu Mei, a master of ci poetry, taught us about the pre-Qin prose; and Mr. Tan Weihan, a writer, taught us about the teaching methods of Chinese textbooks .. However, due to his ignorance, he was an intellectual.

Liu Yabin: A Case-solving Expert Sticking to the Front Line

Liu Yabin preached in primary school.

Liu Yabin preached in primary school.

CCTV News:Liu Yabin is the squadron leader of the intelligence squadron of the Criminal Police Brigade of Cangzhou Canal Branch, Hebei Province. After graduating from college, he briefly worked as a teacher for three years, but out of love for criminal investigation, in 2005, he gave up his stable job and was admitted to the Canal Branch to become a criminal policeman.

There is a lot of pressure at the grassroots level and little room for promotion, but since the police, Liu Yabin has been working at the grassroots level. He firmly believes in "empty talk about making mistakes in the country and prospering the country by hard work". In the past 14 years, he has started as an ordinary investigator and served as a detective, deputy squadron leader, instructor and squadron leader. From cracking the theft case of several hundred yuan to the biggest fraud case in China, he recovered more than 3 billion yuan for the masses step by step, which was well received by the leaders.

Defend people’s safety regardless of safety

Criminal investigation is a hard and dangerous job, which requires patience, care and extraordinary courage. During his years as a criminal police officer, Liu Yabin has caught pickpockets in the street and desperate drug dealers. When there is a dangerous incident, he always rushes to the front line.

Liu Yabin is a famous anti-pickpocketing expert in the city bureau. He has basically caught the old thieves in Cangzhou, whether they are in the mall or on the bus, playing with blades or carrying bags directly. When asked why he can catch thieves that others can’t catch, he said: "Anti-pickpocketing is hard work, as long as you are not afraid of hard work, there is no thief that can’t be caught. At the peak of work, most people are on their way home. I stand next to the bus stop sign and stare at the thief who follows the car. On Saturday and Sunday, when others are at home with my wife and children, I take a camera near the mall to take photos for evidence. That’s all. "

Relatively speaking, anti-pickpocketing may be the least dangerous in Liu Yabin’s work. Drug control is also one of his daily work, and because transporting and selling one kilogram of ice is enough to sentence the suspect to death, the suspect often struggles desperately. In November 2016, when Liu Yabin led a team to arrest drug trafficking suspects, he was fiercely resisted. The suspects even rushed to try to snatch the guns of the police. The two sides fought until they collapsed, and finally captured them.

There are many similar dangerous cases. For example, on one occasion, a time bomb tied with a petrol tank was found in Bohai Commercial Building. In the face of the bomb that may explode at any time, Liu Yabin did not hesitate, and immediately transferred the bomb to the safety zone of Cangxian County with his colleagues. Just as they had just arrived at their destination, waiting for the arrival of bomb squad, the bomb suddenly exploded and the explosion-proof blankets were blown up. If they had been transported to a slower speed, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Thinking of this, Liu Yabin also felt scared. However, whenever he thinks of the trust and satisfaction of the people behind him when he carries away the bomb, his heart will feel very full.

Innovative thinking to combat new crimes

With the popularization of information technology, all kinds of new crimes emerge in an endless stream, and all kinds of information-based investigation and solving methods have sprung up. Liu Yabin is keenly aware that informatization is the direction of future investigation and solving cases. Since then, he has devoted himself to studying the theory of information-based crime solving, seriously studying the methods of information-based crime solving in advanced provinces and cities, and actively exploring the means of information-based crime solving, and soon became an expert in this field.

As early as 2008, Liu Yabin discovered a loophole in the system through the study of the escape system: many suspects surf the Internet in many places, but the case-handling unit does not necessarily know. Through comparison, he compared more than 3,000 fugitives who were released on bail nationwide at one time, more than a squadron caught in 30 years. Driven by this comparison work, the Hebei Provincial Public Security Department has specially carried out a special action to compare fugitives and normalized this action.

In 2012, the Canal Public Security Bureau found that the number of cases reported by leasing companies accepted by the branch was on the rise, and many vehicles were resold or mortgaged at low prices after being leased by suspects, and almost all the vehicles used by suspects were from leasing companies. In this regard, the Canal Public Security Bureau decided to take the management and service of car rental industry as the starting point and explore a new way in the informationization of criminal investigation basic work. After Liu Yabin was appointed as the person in charge of the project, he first went deep into various car rental companies to understand the vehicles and operating conditions, sorted out and registered the car rental companies and vehicles in the city one by one, and established data files. Subsequently, according to the data and current situation, he independently developed the information management system of car rental industry, and started it in 24 rental companies in the urban area at the same time.

This management system soon came in handy. On September 20, 2012, the Canal Branch received a request from Dacheng County Public Security Bureau for investigation, claiming that a suspected vehicle was heading for Cangzhou, hoping that the Branch would investigate the track of the suspected vehicle in Cangzhou. Upon hearing the case, Liu Yabin immediately inquired about the vehicles during the incident period through the bayonet system of the Municipal Bureau. After the inquiry was fruitless, he immediately inquired about the vehicles of Cangzhou urban leasing company through the car rental industry management system and found that a car had been to the scene at the time of the crime. The lessee of the car is called Yan, and he often rents a car with Yan.

By analyzing the GPS trajectory of the suspect’s rented vehicle, Liu Yabin finally found the location where Yan and others hid the stolen goods. Through the car rental industry management system all the way, Yan, who returned from the crime, was arrested, and four mahogany chairs and two mahogany coffee tables were seized on the spot, with a case value of 200,000 yuan.

Due to his outstanding achievements in information-based crime solving, Liu Yabin was selected into the talent pool of information experts of the Provincial Public Security Department in 2012, the talent pool of anti-fraud experts of the Provincial Public Security Department in 2013, and the first batch of information-based crime solving experts of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security in 2015.

Be a preacher of safe Cangzhou

It is important to combat crime, but nip in the bud is the foundation of building a peaceful society. Since 2009, Liu Yabin has given full play to the advantages of being a teacher, and has organized primary and secondary school students and community residents to study many times to explain the knowledge of preventing telecom fraud and drug control. He coordinated the city post office to print a letter to all students and parents by greeting card, which included 16 common types of telecom fraud and preventive measures. He also contacted a total of 25,152 students from 26 primary schools in Canal District to carry out the interactive activity of "I study with my parents", and made students become propagandists to prevent telecom fraud crimes by playing promotional videos and conducting micro-classes. This activity was also selected as "the most satisfying thing for the masses".

In addition, Liu Yabin also opened the WeChat official account of Canal Interpol in Cangzhou Bar and Sina Weibo. Practice has proved that the opening of WeChat official account has played a positive role in the control of online public opinion, the early warning of high-incidence cases, the collection of criminal information and many other aspects. Up to now, the police have obtained more than 30 valuable clues through communication with netizens, and have cracked more than 20 cases accordingly.

Due to his outstanding work achievements, Liu Yabin has been awarded the third-class merit three times since 2005, and has been awarded the honorary titles of "Strike Hard Advanced Individual", "Excellent Investigator" and "Informatization Advanced Individual" by Cangzhou Municipal Party Committee, Municipal Government and Municipal Public Security Bureau in successive years. "Public security work is not just a job to make a living, it is also a glorious cause. The crackdown is the main business of public security, and criminal police are the main force of this work, so I will still choose to stick to the front line of criminal investigation. " Liu Yabin said. (Source: Hebei Provincial Federation of Trade Unions)

Botger: From the Alchemist to the Decipher of China Porcelain.

If you talk about the Maritime Silk Road, you may imagine that big ships are full of silk and sold all over the world. In fact, when it comes to hard currency in marine trade, it is porcelain.

In 1557, the Portuguese established a trading port in Macau, which started the colonization of this area and opened a new chapter in the export of China porcelain. Before that, China’s export porcelain was mainly controlled by Arabs. With the arrival of Portuguese, Europeans occupied a dominant position in China’s porcelain trade for the first time. When the exquisite porcelain was transported to the European court, these treasures from the East quickly attracted the attention of European nobles. In English, these porcelains are called "china-ware". Since then, the meaning of this word has changed further, and porcelains produced anywhere are called "china".

Although Europeans quickly ignited the enthusiasm of imitating porcelain, they were deeply troubled by the mystery of porcelain. Because of the translucent characteristics of porcelain, Europeans tried to mix glass powder into clay at that time in order to make exquisite porcelain. As a matter of fact, as early as in The Travels of Marco Polo, there were descriptions of porcelain recipes, but they were all whimsical and could not be copied. In 1570s, the Medici family successfully copied it for the first time in Florence, but it was difficult to compare with Chinese porcelain in hardness and quality. Many people believe that Yin Hongxu, a Catholic missionary in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, sent her observations in Jingdezhen and samples of kaolin and porcelain clay to Europe, so that Europeans finally learned the secret of porcelain making in China. But before Yin Hongxu, Europe had actually guessed the secret of porcelain. This story happened in Dresden, then the Principality of Saxony, and there is a legendary story behind this legendary discovery.

Medici family made porcelain in 1575-1587. As can be seen from the picture, they mainly imitated the style of blue and white porcelain, but the quality was not good.

The arrested alchemist

Meissen, Germany, has an unparalleled position in the history of European porcelain production, because it is the first place to start the high-quality imitation of China porcelain, and makes Meissen become the iconic brand of European porcelain. However, this critical moment in the history of European porcelain originated from an absurd case.

In 1700, John Friedrich Friedrich BTTGER (February 4, 1682-March 13, 1719), an 18-year-old genius, was arrested in Vittenburg and taken to Dresden. Augustus the Strong "elector of Saxony, ordered his arrest. The young man said that he had not committed any crime and should not be treated illegally. However, Augustus is hiding something from him. I don’t know where this elector heard that this young man is a gifted alchemist who can refine gold from some scrap metal and soil. Rumors of alchemy have reverberated in Europe for thousands of years. Although no one has really succeeded, most people have no doubt about the real existence of this technology. Therefore, Augustus asked the boy to make gold for him in Dresden, otherwise, he would be imprisoned for life.

A bust of Botger

The rumors that Augustus heard were not groundless. During his stay in Berlin, Botger followed the famous chemist Zorn in experiments. Chemists at that time often had a belief that there was a mysterious substance (Alltinktur) in the world that could extract a magic medicine that could cure all diseases, or that ordinary metals could be turned into precious gold through a special reagent (so-called Goldmachertinktur). It is said that Zon mastered the secret, and this mysterious formula was stolen by young Botger. Frederik 1 of Prussia also hoped Boteger would make gold for him, but because of the leak, Boteger was able to escape from Berlin. Unexpectedly, he went out of the wolf’s den and into the jaws of death, and fell into the hands of Augustus.

Mathematicians’ feelings about porcelain

He was imprisoned in a secret cabin and forced to carry out hopeless chemical experiments. Augustus sent another chemist to supervise Botger’s work, and this person was Ehrenfried Walther von tschirnhaus (April 10, 1651-October 11, 1708).

Compared with Botger, Zienhaus is already a renowned physicist, mathematician, chemist and medical scientist. Zienhouse studied mathematics, philosophy and medicine at Leiden University in the Netherlands in his early years, and served in the Dutch army from 1672 to 1673. He has made a lot of friends in European academic circles, not only having a good talk with the philosopher Spinoza in Holland, but also going to England to discuss mathematical problems with Isaac Newton. When he was in Paris, he met Leibniz, who had a bad relationship with Newton, became his lifelong friend and kept a lot of letters. Therefore, we have reason to think that he is more willing to believe that calculus is Leibniz’s masterpiece.

Zienhaus portrait

In addition to mathematics and philosophy, Zenhouse has been trying to reveal the secrets of China porcelain, and has achieved some breakthrough results, but he can’t repeat his experiments on a stable basis. He suggested to Botger that they study the secret recipe of porcelain together. He told Boteger that it was more feasible to find out the formula of China porcelain than alchemy, and if it could produce exquisite porcelain, it would be enough to give Augustus an account. In the European market at that time, the value of exquisite porcelain was not inferior to that of gold and silver, and even comparable to that of platinum. Although Botger himself was depressed, Zienhaus’s suggestion was accepted by Augustus. So, under the surveillance of a group of guards, Botger went to Mason to engage in porcelain experiments. Even when Swedish troops invaded the Principality of Saxony in 1706, they were looking for Botger. In order to keep this "big baby", Augustus transferred him to a distant black forest and imprisoned him during the war.

Explore the secret recipe of porcelain

Just after the war ended in September, 1707, Augustus personally ordered Botger to cooperate with Zienhouse to try to imitate China porcelain with some chemists and craftsmen in the laboratory in a castle in Dresden. At that time, Yin Hongxu had not written "China Ceramics", and this letter about the secrets of Jingdezhen porcelain did not reach Europe until 1712. So the main method at that time was to conduct repeated experiments on massive raw materials. In January 1708, they found the first workable formula. In this formula, the key step is to use kaolin and alabaster from Schneeberg. Augustus was very satisfied with this result, and even placed an important position in the Privy Council for the laboratory commander-in-chief, Zienhaus, and asked him to lead a porcelain production factory in the future. Zienhouse modestly replied to the king that he hoped to wait until all the experiments were finished and a way of mass production was found before accepting the king’s reward and position.

Unfortunately, Zienhaus died on October 11th of that year, and the whole process of porcelain decryption was handed over to the young Botger. What is puzzling is that the production of porcelain has been at a standstill. On March 20th, 1709, Melchior Steinbrück, the manager of the Zienhouse family business, signed an asset certificate with Boteger, and eight days later, Boteger suddenly informed King Augustus that he had invented the formula for making good porcelain.

In the early summer of 1709, the Dresden factory began to produce porcelain on a large scale and sold it at the Easter market in Leipzig in 1710. At the same time, Augustus also built a royal porcelain factory in Myson, which was operated remotely by Botger in Dresden to supervise the production of porcelain. It is worth noting that the early porcelain of Meissen is red in color, which is more similar to the purple sand (then called B?ttgersteinzeug, which is still used in German to represent purple sand), and then it is glazed and fired again, and decorated with silver carvings in the baroque style that was popular at that time.

Mason porcelain made in 1708-1710. It can be clearly seen from the picture that there is still a big gap in quality between white porcelain and later white porcelain.

Beginning in 1713, Botger further improved the process, which enabled Meissen’s factory to produce white porcelain, and mastered the glaze process in the following years, which became popular in Europe. Botger is deeply proud of his creation, and even thinks that his porcelain is superior to Chinese porcelain. In any case, in the European market, Saxony porcelain has become a symbol of new fashion and status.

In 2010, Germany issued a commemorative stamp commemorating the 300th anniversary of German porcelain making. The portrait selected for the stamp was drawn by Paul Kie?ling in Albrechtsburg in 1880, in which Botger was the one who operated the experiment in front, while Zienhaus was sitting in the back with a wig.

Although Botger, who created great wealth for Saxony, was rewarded with a mansion, there were still guards at the door and he failed to regain his freedom. Because Dagong was worried that he would leak the secret recipe of porcelain making, which would affect Saxony’s leading position in the European porcelain making industry. In 1714, Botger, who had been imprisoned for nearly fifteen years, was finally set free. Although the archduke was furious at Botger’s failure to find the secret of alchemy, Meissen’s exquisite porcelain won him great wealth. Sadly, however, this talented chemist died in 1719. This may be because he worked in a porcelain kiln for a long time without protective measures, and his health was fatally endangered. Some people say that he died of a killer sent by Augustus and put deadly poison in the wine he drank. It is said that shortly before his death, Botger wrote a poem to describe the misery of his life and the greed of the king:

The king longed for the fruit of gold,

But these weak hands are hard to make.

Only the crystallization of porphyry and borax,

Presented in front of the king’s throne as a sacrifice.

Yes, because of inner greed, these hands reached out to the big ship full of porcelain.

Disputes over the right of invention

However, this story did not end with the death of Botger. His right to discover the secrets of porcelain-making was questioned after his death. Many people in the industry believe that Botger stole Zienhaus’s discovery that his room was stolen three days after Zienhaus’s death. People believe that Botger is the thief and stole the secret recipe written by Zenhouse. Others believe that Botger got the recipe only when Steinbrook arrived in Dresden to deal with Zienhaus’ relics together. For Steinbrook, after taking charge of the Wangs porcelain factory, Botger appointed him as supervisor and married his sister to him.

In addition to these strange events, there are also some witnesses who publicly accuse Botger of stealing the achievements of Zenhaus. Samuel St?lzel, a porcelain craftsman who defected from Myson to Vienna at that time, proved in 1719 that Zienhouse first discovered the secret of porcelain, but it was not further revised and made public because of his sudden death. In the same year, Caspar Bussius, secretary general of Meissen’s Handicraft Guild, also made it clear that the invention of porcelain should be attributed not to Botger, but to Zienhouse, because the former got the formula from the latter.

In 1731, Peter Mohrenthal, president of the Meissen Chamber of Commerce, wrote: "The whole of Saxony will remember von Zienhouse. As long as Meissen’s porcelain factory is unique outside China, his reputation will last forever … because Mr. Zienhouse was the first lucky person to find the secret of porcelain, and the controversial Mr. Bergent only developed in details later … Feng.

It is worth mentioning that Mason’s porcelain-making tradition still exists today. At the end of 18th century, the German civil war continued, and once the factory with 700 employees was moved to Berlin. After World War II, Germany, as a defeated country, was forced to send a lot of equipment to the Soviet Union as compensation. Due to the division of Germany, Meissen’s porcelain factory became a joint venture between the Soviet Union and the Democratic Republic of Germany (East Germany), and became the main source of foreign exchange for East Germany after 1950.

Therefore, no matter who was the first person to discover the secret of porcelain in Europe, Europeans nearly 300 years ago got a glimpse of the mysterious fate of China porcelain, which made European porcelain-making technology enter a new stage. The discovery of this secret has also had an impact on China, especially on the decline of many export-oriented porcelain factories in Jingdezhen, which is another story.

The glazed porcelain made by Maisen in the 1720s is obviously influenced by China porcelain, among which the "nondescript" Chinese style of painting is similar to the "Jesuit porcelain" made in China.

@ Jiading car owners, Volvo and Ford recalled 250,000 cars!

On August 18th, the website of the State Administration of Market Supervision published a batch of vehicle recall information, involving Volvo, Ford and other brands.

From December 13th, 2013 to December 23rd, 2019, a total of 142,730 S60L vehicles of 2014-2020 were produced.

For some vehicles within the scope of this recall, due to design reasons, if the seat belt fixing cable installed outside the front seat is in a specific position, the driver and the front passenger may cause the seat belt fixing cable to bend repeatedly and exceed the yield strength of the cable, resulting in the cable stretching, and long-term fatigue and wear may lead to the cable breaking. When a vehicle collides, it may affect the seat belt restraint function, and in extreme cases, the seat belt restraint function may fail, which increases the risk of personal injury in the accident and has potential safety hazards.

Volvo Car Sales (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. and Zhejiang Haoqing Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will replace the improved front seat outer seat belt fasteners for vehicles within the recall range free of charge to eliminate safety hazards.

In addition, official website, the State Administration of Market Supervision, showed that before the vehicle is recalled for maintenance, it is suggested that the driver and the front passenger should ensure that the seat belt fixing piece is vertical when entering the vehicle, which is consistent with the direction of the seat back, so that the seat belt fixing piece will not bend to the seat cushion when the driver and the front passenger sit in the seat, and the seat belt fixing piece can be prevented from being damaged.

02

Ford recalls some imported Lincoln cars;

Seat airbag may not work properly.

Ford Motor (China) Co., Ltd. filed a recall plan with the State Administration of Market Supervision according to the requirements of the Regulations on the Management of Defective Automobile Product Recall and the Measures for the Implementation of the Regulations on the Management of Defective Automobile Product Recall.

It is decided to recall some imported Lincoln MKX cars from May 28, 2015 to July 30, 2018 from August 21, 2020, totaling 10,649 vehicles; And some imported Lincoln Navigator cars produced from September 27, 2018 to September 30, 2019 in 2019-2020, totaling 4,010.

For some vehicles within the scope of this recall, due to the narrow gap between the front seat harness and the seat pan frame, when the seat pan angle adjustment function is used, the edge of the seat pan frame may interfere with the seat harness, which may lead to the wear of the seat harness in extreme cases, which may cause the front seat airbag system to fail to work normally and pose a safety hazard.

Ford Motor (China) Co., Ltd. will entrust Lincoln authorized dealers to install flocking tape on the exposed edge of the front seat basin frame for vehicles within the recall scope free of charge, and at the same time, check the seat harness and repair or replace it as necessary to eliminate potential safety hazards.

Sichuan issued an urgent notice to further strengthen the prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic.

Emergency Notice of Sichuan Province on Responding to novel coronavirus Epidemic and emergency headquarters on Further Strengthening the Prevention and Control of COVID-19 Epidemic

On July 28th, the website of Sichuan Provincial Government issued the Emergency Notice of Sichuan Province on Further Strengthening the Prevention and Control of COVID-19 Epidemic in Response to novel coronavirus Epidemic in emergency headquarters (hereinafter referred to as "Emergency Notice"). It was mentioned that on July 27th, the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee made a comprehensive deployment and put forward clear requirements for doing a good job in the prevention and control of the epidemic in our province.

What should immigrants do when they come to Sichuan?

14-day centralized isolation +7-day home isolation, and nucleic acid detection needs to be completed in 1, 4, 7, 10 and 14 days of centralized isolation and 2 and 7 days of home isolation.

According to the "Emergency Notice", it is necessary to implement 14-day centralized isolation and 7-day home isolation for all people entering the port of our province. Those who do not meet the conditions for home isolation should be centralized isolation. After lifting the centralized isolation, the entry personnel will be taken back to the local area by the closed loop of each city (state) to continue the 7-day home isolation, and the entry personnel who return to other provinces through our province should be sent to the airport and station in a closed loop, and the information of the entry personnel at the destination and the information of the means of transportation should be informed in advance.

The Emergency Notice mentioned that all entry personnel completed the nucleic acid detection of nasopharyngeal swabs on the 1st, 4th, 7th, 10th and 14th days of the centralized isolation period, and on the 2nd and 7th days of the home isolation period. For the nucleic acid detection on the 14th day of the centralized isolation period and the 7th day of the home isolation period, two nasopharyngeal swabs should be collected and tested with different nucleic acid detection reagents, and the two tests should be carried out by different testing institutions (hereinafter referred to as double sampling and double testing).

After the centralized isolation was lifted from outside the province, Sichuan personnel or invited teams who arrived in Sichuan for less than 21 days should be sent to the home isolation place by the territorial closed-loop transfer, and the home isolation will be implemented until the full 21 days; If there is no home isolation place, the local designated isolation hotel will conduct centralized isolation, and nasopharyngeal swab nucleic acid detection will be carried out twice during the isolation period, and double collection and double inspection will be adopted when the isolation is lifted.

What should I do if I come to Sichuan from a high-risk area in China?

Before the risk area is delineated, 48 hours of negative nucleic acid report and 14 days of community management should be provided.

After the risk area is defined, it will be isolated at home for 14 days, and centralized isolation will be carried out if there is no home condition.

According to the Emergency Notice, requirements are made when the risk area is not delineated and after it is delineated.

Among them, in terms of personnel management when the risk area is not demarcated, the Emergency Notice mentions that when there are confirmed cases in China and the epidemic area is not demarcated as a medium-high risk area, all localities should issue health tips, and conduct community investigation and traffic barrier investigation for returnees who have lived in the county (city, district) where the epidemic occurred within 14 days, requiring negative reports of nucleic acid testing within 48 hours, and failing to provide reports, they should complete them within 24 hours. If the nucleic acid test is negative, it will be included in community management and health monitoring will be carried out until it is 14 days after leaving the epidemic area.

In terms of personnel management after strict risk area delineation, the Emergency Notice mentioned that after the epidemic area is divided into medium and high risk areas, all localities will complete regional cooperation investigation and red and yellow code personnel investigation management within 24 hours according to the push data, and implement home isolation for returnees from medium and high risk areas until they leave the risk area for 14 days. Those who do not have home isolation conditions will be centralized isolation, and nasopharyngeal swab nucleic acid detection will be completed every three days during the isolation period, and double sampling and double inspection will be adopted when the isolation is lifted. During the isolation period, the middle and high-risk areas were reduced to low-risk areas, and the isolation was lifted after the nucleic acid double collection and double test were negative. Where the location of the high-risk area requires to hold a negative certificate of nucleic acid detection within a specified time when leaving, all localities should conduct personnel investigation and nucleic acid negative certificate inspection in accordance with its specified scope and time.

How to arrange the vaccination work?

Take vaccination as a key measure to strengthen epidemic prevention and control, and ensure that people over the age of 12 who have no contraindications should receive it.

The "Emergency Notice" also mentioned that it is necessary to highlight the prevention and control of key populations and key places and vaccination. First, strengthen the monitoring of high-risk groups, such as railway, highway, civil aviation, port, medical and health, imported cold chain and other industrial systems. In accordance with the latest requirements of the national industry authorities, we should refine the COVID-19 monitoring plan for all employees, organize nucleic acid testing, and find the signs of the epidemic in time; The second is to implement prevention and control measures in key places, strictly implement the system of first consultation and pre-examination and triage in various medical institutions at all levels, and make an epidemiological inquiry for all patients, and all patients in fever clinics (clinics) will be under observation before the feedback of nucleic acid test results. All kinds of medical institutions at all levels that have not set up fever clinics shall refer patients with fever according to regulations. Strictly implement the site selection requirements for centralized isolation places, and effectively strengthen personnel training and protection. Medical care, pension, supervision, entry and exit ports, hotels, closed entertainment and other key places must implement measures such as wearing masks, measuring temperature and scanning codes. Airports, passenger stations, railway stations, subway stations, and public places with large crowds should be required to wear masks, take temperature measurements, and light codes to encourage code scanning. Public transport should implement protective measures such as wearing masks all the time. The third is to promote vaccination in Covid-19. According to the principle of "territoriality first, compartmentalization combined", the responsibility of territoriality and the responsibility of industry leaders should be consolidated, and vaccination should be taken as a key measure to strengthen the prevention and control of epidemic situation, so as to ensure that people over 12 years old who have no contraindications should meet all the requirements and complete the assigned tasks on time.

Strengthen emergency response to epidemic situation.

Centralized isolation and nucleic acid detection shall be conducted for close contacts and close contacts of close contacts as required.

The "Emergency Notice" also mentioned strengthening the emergency response to the epidemic. The first is to strengthen the investigation and management of close contacts. After the occurrence of local epidemic, close contacts are determined in time, and those who have close contact with them in the same space, unit and building and have not taken effective protection four days before the symptoms of suspected cases and confirmed cases appear, or four days before the samples of asymptomatic infected people are sampled, are all determined as close contacts. Centralized isolation and nucleic acid detection for close contacts and close contacts of close contacts as required; The second is to implement the circle management of epidemic risk areas. According to the epidemic situation and epidemiological investigation, four layers of management can be implemented in closed area, sealed control area, surrounding area of risk area and other areas. The closed area shall be fully enclosed, and personnel shall stay at home. Except for the needs of prevention and control and living security, other personnel and vehicles shall not enter or leave. Personnel in the closed control area can only enter and leave, only the living security places are open, and gathering is strictly prohibited. The area around the risk area maintains normal life and production order, all kinds of large-scale activities are prohibited, and the business of cinemas, dance halls, game halls and other leisure and entertainment places is suspended. Other areas strictly implement various epidemic prevention and control measures to reduce personnel gathering. The third is to carry out population nucleic acid testing. According to the order of closed area, closed control area and surrounding area, multiple rounds of nucleic acid detection were taken, in which at least four nucleic acid detection were carried out in the closed area on the 1st, 4th, 7th and 14th days, at least three nucleic acid detection were carried out in the closed control area on the 1st, 7th and 14th days, and at least two nucleic acid detection were carried out in the surrounding area of the risk area on the 1st and 7th days. In other areas, according to the development of the epidemic situation, all staff will be tested for nucleic acid in a timely manner.  (Reporter Wei Feng Ren Hong)

Review on the Management of the Board of Directors of Sinopharm in 2021

() The business review of the Board of Directors in 2021 is as follows:

  I. Industry situation of the company during the reporting period

  (A) the macro environment facing the industry

  2021 is the first year of the 14th Five-Year Plan, and the macro environment continues to change. China’s economy continues to repair in the context of the epidemic, GDP is growing steadily, and the economy is developing to high quality; Medical reform policies are frequent, and the state has implemented the healthy China strategy in depth to promote the balanced distribution of high-quality medical resources; The process of population aging has gradually accelerated, and the "three-child" policy has been fully liberalized, which has increased the market demand for health industry and the old-age service industry that combines medical care and health care, and the demand for children’s medication. With the release of the Outline of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area’s Development Plan, a number of policies have provided new dividends for Greater Bay Area’s medical and health construction.

  (two) the basic situation, development stage and cyclical characteristics of the industry.

  In 2021, the scale of the pharmaceutical market continued to grow, the linkage reform of "three medicines" continued to deepen, and the policies of the pharmaceutical industry were intensively introduced, which ushered in greater challenges and opportunities for the pharmaceutical industry.

  1. Development of medical terminal market

  In 2021, the growth of the medical terminal market picked up, but the development of the medical terminal market continued to be under pressure due to factors such as the multi-point spread of the epidemic and the accelerated promotion of centralized procurement.

  PDB (data released by China Pharmaceutical Industry Information Center) Statistics of domestic sample hospital market show that the market size of sample hospitals rose by 10.24% in the first three quarters of 2021 compared with the same period in 2020. However, due to the low base in 2020, the growth rate of hospital market continued to slow down due to factors such as epidemic situation and centralized procurement, and only increased by 1.86% in the third quarter of 2021 compared with the second quarter. The annual hospital market sales in 2021 remained the same as that in 2011.

  Zhongkang CMH retail data shows that in the first three quarters of 2021, the sales scale of retail pharmacies nationwide increased by 3.0%. In the second half of 2021, due to the repeated epidemic situation in some parts of China, the prevention and control measures of epidemic situation in retail pharmacies in some areas became stricter, the drugs related to the epidemic situation were banned, and some patients returned to hospitals and primary medical institutions under the influence of centralized procurement by medical institutions, and the passenger flow in retail pharmacies was challenged, with an increase of only 0.3% in the third quarter.

  2, the pharmaceutical industry policy and influence

  In 2021, the pharmaceutical industry policies were introduced intensively, and the linkage reform of "three doctors" continued to deepen. In medicine, it mainly involves many policies such as drug registration and approval, raw materials, drug patents, drug vigilance, development of traditional Chinese medicine and formula granules; In terms of medical insurance, there are mainly policies such as purchasing with quantity, adjusting and negotiating medical insurance catalogue, dual-channel medical insurance, DRG/DIP payment method, and medical insurance for urban and rural residents. Medical treatment mainly includes long-term prescription, public hospital reform, graded diagnosis and treatment, medical and health service reform and popularization of Sanming medical reform experience.

  (1) The normalization and institutionalization of quantity procurement and the gradual expansion of its coverage have a great impact on the pharmaceutical industry.

  The centralized drug collection organized by the state has been carried out in 6 batches, and a total of 234 kinds of drugs have been purchased. The market amount involved accounts for about 30% of the purchase amount of chemical drugs and biological drugs in public medical institutions. In 2021, the special procurement of insulin was carried out, and the centralized collection was expanded from chemical drugs to biological drugs for the first time. The collection of high-value medical consumables focuses on cardiology and orthopedics, two areas that the masses are most concerned about. The centralized procurement of cardiac stents has been running smoothly for one year, and the total number of selected stents is 1.69 million, which is nearly 1.6 times of the annual agreed procurement. In 2021, the state organized the collection of artificial joints for more complex orthopedic consumables, which further expanded the coverage of the reform.

  The influence of quantity procurement on pharmaceutical business: the decline of sales revenue and gross profit margin has a great impact on the income growth and profit space of commercial companies; With the increase of distribution cost, the distribution frequency of centralized procurement products is often higher, especially in the newly opened primary medical institutions, which presents the phenomenon of small single purchase volume and high distribution frequency, which obviously increases the distribution cost; The gap between pharmaceutical commercial enterprises is widening, and the variety of centralized procurement is increasing, which also brings challenges and opportunities to commercial enterprises: due to factors such as scale, collectivization, informationization and capital chain, weak commercial enterprises can no longer support and bear the burden of purchasing with quantity. Large pharmaceutical commercial enterprises have a large variety of reserves, strong financial strength, fast delivery capacity, and a wide range of hospital customers, which provide convenient conditions for enterprises. Although the gross profit of overall distribution has declined, the industry position has been further consolidated due to the scale effect of purchasing with quantity, which can digest some costs.

  The influence of quantity procurement on pharmaceutical retail: the winning varieties were shortlisted for price reduction, and the prices of pharmacy operating varieties were upside down, facing the pressure of price reduction. Even if you participate in centralized purchasing and solve channel problems, you still face price pressure; Monomer pharmacies lose their competitive advantage under the trend of centralized purchasing, accelerate the merger and acquisition of pharmacies, and further improve the chain rate of pharmacies; Accelerate the online layout, reduce the price of drugs, increase the operating cost of pharmacies, and gradually develop online business in pharmacies.

  (2) Promote graded diagnosis and treatment and the construction of medical associations, and gradually open the grassroots market.

  On November 4, 2021, the National Health and Wellness Commission issued the Work Plan for Improving the Comprehensive Capacity of County Hospitals under the "Thousand Counties Project" (2021-2025), aiming at meeting the medical service needs of the people in the county, consolidating and expanding the achievements of poverty alleviation and effectively connecting with rural revitalization, accelerating the improvement of the graded diagnosis and treatment system, and pushing county hospitals into a new stage of high-quality development. Through five years’ efforts, at least 1000 county hospitals in China will reach the level of medical service capacity of tertiary hospitals, laying a solid foundation for solving common diseases in cities and counties.

  On November 22, 2021, the General Office of the National Health and Wellness Commission issued the Notice on Promoting the Experience of Classified Diagnosis and Treatment and the Construction of Medical Consortium in Sanming City, and put forward eight key tasks to promote the graded diagnosis and treatment and the construction of medical consortia with the goal of building a pattern of primary diagnosis, two-way referral, rapid and slow division and treatment, and linkage up and down, with the focus on promoting the high-quality development of public hospitals.

  Graded diagnosis and treatment and the construction of medical associations have pushed the joint procurement of hospitals and the control of medical insurance fees to the ground. First of all, unify the catalogue, and the general minimum threshold for drugs to enter the catalogue will be price; Expanding the promotion coverage and entering the medical association procurement catalogue means that the products have entered many hospitals within the medical association, and the crowd tactics that every hospital used to run in the past are expected to reduce costs. Secondly, unified distribution, the initiative of medical institutions to upstream distribution businesses and pharmaceutical companies has been greatly improved. Whether it is secondary bargaining, distribution or payment, the trend of medical institutions suppressing upstream and downstream industries and businesses is even more difficult to reverse. Finally, on the basis of purchasing with quantity, linking quantity with price, reducing price with quantity and centralized purchasing, all medical associations further bargain with quantity to form a second bargaining.

  (3) "dual channels" help negotiate the landing of drugs, which is beneficial to the development of retail business.

  The dual-channel policy accelerates the circulation of prescriptions and the separation of medicines, and transfers part of the functions of the original in-hospital management of medicines to the outside of the hospital, so as to ensure that the compliance institutions in and outside the hospital enjoy equal medical insurance payment rules; Relevant national conferences also show that the supervision of medical insurance funds will be strengthened with the prescription circulation center as the core. In the future, under the background of higher and higher requirements for policy guidance, compliance and professionalism, the competitiveness of leading pharmaceutical enterprises will be strengthened and the industry concentration will be further enhanced.

The sales of prescription drugs have brought great influence to chain pharmacies.

  In order to better undertake the outflow of prescriptions, it is necessary to strengthen the professional service ability and establish a chronic disease management team. In 2021, Guoda Pharmacy organized online study for diabetes specialists and hypertension specialists every week, covering 26 regions, and actually trained 2,593 diabetes specialists and 2,568 hypertension specialists; Accumulated 1.01 million diabetes members and 970,000 hypertension members were filed, and the sales of diabetes and hypertension products increased by 11.7% and 14.2% year-on-year.

  10. Development of innovative business

  In 2021, the innovative business of Guoda Pharmacy will be driven by the business model of "medicine+medicine+insurance". In November 2021, Jialong Health, a shareholder of Guoda Pharmacy, obtained the qualification of Hainan Internet Hospital, laying the foundation for Guoda Pharmacy to realize online service and medical care. In terms of commercial insurance, sales in 2021 increased by 159% year-on-year, involving various types of fund insurance, serious illness, chronic illness and other multi-faceted business attempts. E-commerce business continued to maintain rapid growth in the self-operated platform construction and O2O. The self-operated platform realized the mode of dividing employees’ commission, and introduced some large health products for online distribution. In 2021, Guoda Pharmacy achieved a breakthrough in self-media and live broadcast business, and completed more than 340 live broadcast businesses throughout the year, and jointly created short videos and other publicity with Meituan, Hungry and cooperative brands to enhance the overall brand image of the company.

IV. Prospects for the future development of the company

  (A) the industry pattern and trends

  1. The concentration of the pharmaceutical industry will increase, and the business model will be reconstructed. According to the Guiding Opinions of the Ministry of Commerce on Promoting the High-quality Development of the Pharmaceutical Circulation Industry during the Tenth Five-Year Plan period, the overall goal by 2025 is to cultivate and form 1-3 large-scale digital and comprehensive pharmaceutical circulation enterprises exceeding 500 billion yuan and 5-10 enterprises exceeding 100 billion yuan, and the retail chain rate of pharmaceuticals is close to 70%. From this, it can be seen that the state supports and encourages the formation of national and regional leading patterns, whether it is the upstream original research drugs, generic drug manufacturers or the middle-stream circulation enterprises, which will accelerate the leap of centralized measurement level in the market, and the small and medium-sized circulation enterprises with weak comprehensive strength will be eliminated and the business model of the circulation industry will be reconstructed.

  2. Centralized mining speeds up the expansion, and the gross profit space is further compressed. The scope of centralized procurement with quantity will continue to expand, the price of drugs will be further reduced, and the gross profit space will be further compressed. The three major sectors of chemical medicine, Chinese patent medicine and biological medicine will carry out centralized procurement in all directions, and high-value medical consumables will focus on orthopedic consumables, drug balloons, dental implants and other varieties. At the same time, cross-regional alliance with quantity procurement will gradually become a trend; At the same time, more and more varieties of Chinese patent medicines and biological agents will be brought into centralized collection. With the further expansion of centralized purchasing, the gross profit margin of pharmaceutical consumables will further decline.

  3. Innovation, transformation and upgrading of the pharmaceutical market, and accelerated reshuffle of the industry. With the medical reform entering the deep water area, the quantity procurement and medical insurance negotiation have greatly changed the medical ecology. Policies encourage innovation. Facing the new pattern, traditional pharmaceutical companies seek transformation in marketing model, R&D strategy and overseas layout, so as to cope with or lead the development of industrial trends. According to the national policy guidance and the increasingly fierce competition among circulation enterprises, circulation enterprises will continue to promote business model innovation and service innovation, and improve their business performance by steadily developing their scale.

  4. The market demand for pharmaceutical consumption and diversified payment funds will jointly support the scale and volume of the pharmaceutical retail market. According to the forecast of Minenet, by 2029, the drug market scale of retail pharmacy terminals alone will reach 1.15 trillion yuan.

  5. Innovative drugs, traditional Chinese medicine and other categories will become the main force driving the increment of China’s pharmaceutical retail market. According to the "14th Five-Year Plan for Pharmaceutical Industry Development" jointly issued by nine departments in January, 2022, the innovation-driven development pattern will be fully formed, and the number of original new drugs and "leading" products will increase, and China will become an important source of pharmaceutical innovation in the world. According to IQVIA’s forecast, in the next five years, driven by the increase in the number and dosage of innovative new drugs, China’s drug expenditure will increase by 3.8% CAGR, and the main contribution to the growth will be the original brand drugs, and the CAGR will be 10.4% in 2022-2026. Retail pharmacies will enjoy this wave of innovative drugs out-of-hospital market dividends through the "dual-channel" qualification.

  6. With the "three-medical linkage" reform, the drug price has dropped in an all-round way, and retail pharmacies urgently need to accelerate the development and transformation driven by innovative services and cultivate new income growth points. Based on the innovative ideas of the transformation of world-class enterprises and the health service strategy of Wobolian (), we will vigorously develop medical and health clinic services such as VillageMD and HealthCorner.

  (2) Possible risks

  1, novel coronavirus epidemic continued to affect. Although the domestic COVID-19 epidemic has been effectively controlled, it is still sporadic. Once there is an outbreak in the company’s business area, under the current strict prevention and control measures, the decline in hospital outpatient service and outpatient drug use still has a noticeable impact on the company’s business.

  2. Policy risk: National policies have direct guidance and influence on the development of pharmaceutical retail industry. Under the premise of medical insurance cost control, the centralized procurement of drugs with quantity is normalized and institutionalized, and the price of drugs has dropped overall; In addition to the comprehensive spread of the variety of drugs collected, the drug price linkage mechanism has also landed in some areas. The supply chain capacity and profitability of retail pharmacies are facing challenges. At the same time, the supervision of medical insurance funds is becoming stricter in an all-round way. The construction of medical insurance informatization will be accelerated in an all-round way, and a unified national medical insurance information platform will be built. In the future, the unified national medical insurance information platform will be vertically connected, horizontally connected, internally and externally interconnected, and ecologically integrated, and the medical insurance information will be fully transparent. The supervision of medical insurance fund will be upgraded in an all-round way, the requirements for compliance operation of pharmacies will be improved, and the compliance cost of pharmacies will increase. The related policies of Internet diagnosis and treatment norms have been issued, and strict restrictions have been imposed on such behaviors as prescribing for the first visit, unifying prescriptions and supplementing prescriptions. Online diagnosis and treatment of pharmacies, medical e-commerce and other business operations are also facing greater compliance requirements.

  3. Market changes and market competition risks: the pharmaceutical retail industry has entered a stage of high-quality development, the growth rate of market scale has slowed down, and the overall number of stores is still expanding. In this environment, the competition in the industry has intensified, and major chains are seizing the opportunity to expand their store size and scramble for land through self-opening, joining and mergers and acquisitions, and the industry concentration has been continuously improved. The passenger flow in offline pharmacies is blocked, which is not only squeezed by online channels, but also affected by the return of some patients to the hospital due to centralized purchase. Retail pharmacies are facing challenges from peer competition, online channel competition and medical institutions, especially primary medical institutions. Guoda Pharmacy, as a leading chain pharmacy enterprise in the industry, has a network of stores covering 20 provinces and cities across the country, backed by Sinopharm Holdings and Sinopharm Consistency, and has competitive advantages in terms of supply chain capability, hospital channel resources, brand value and logistics capability. However, with the intensification of industry competition, how to maintain the leading position, scale and competitive advantage of the industry is still facing challenges.

  4. Risk of public opinion: The popularity of the Internet leads to the rapid spread of network information. With the continuous expansion of social networks online, the spread of information is not only through traditional media, but also through the dynamics shared by social accounts, and public opinion has become a more important risk point.

  5. Compliance risk: In recent years, drug management has become stricter, and GSP regulations have become stricter. For example, the appearance of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces does not meet the requirements, as well as mildew and moth-eaten. Penalties for violations have increased. In addition to the gradual increase in exposure and fines, penalties such as revocation of medical insurance qualifications have also occurred from time to time. The implementation of the new version of the Drug Administration Law faces the most severe punishment under the strongest supervision. Government market management behaviors such as supervision, inspection and punishment, such as cooperation with epidemic management, are also becoming more and more frequent.

  6. Risk of impairment of goodwill: On December 31, 2021, the book value of goodwill in the company’s consolidated financial statements was RMB 2.776 billion, which was allocated to the asset groups corresponding to the distribution segment and the retail segment. According to the provisions of the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises, the company conducts impairment test on goodwill every year. (For the disclosure of impairment of goodwill, please refer to Notes III, 17 and 33 and Notes V and 18 in Section X of the Financial Report. )

Looking back on the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" Fujian Basic Education

  During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, the province’s basic education system has always adhered to the fundamental task of cultivating people by virtue, closely focused on the theme of promoting fairness and improving quality, and strived to achieve the goal of "learning from school" to "learning from school". The main development indicators of the province’s basic education have remained at a high level in the country. In 2020, the enrollment rate of school-age children in the province for three years before school, the consolidation rate of nine-year compulsory education and the gross enrollment rate in senior high school will reach 98.81% and 99.36 respectively. Compared with 2015, it increased by 1.52, 1.16 and 3.23 percentage points respectively, and the enrollment rate of school-age disabled children and adolescents reached over 99%, successfully completing the planning objectives and tasks.

  Grasp development and promote fairness

  New achievements have been made in popularizing universal benefits in preschool education.

  We will continue to implement the pre-school education action plan and implement the construction of public kindergarten projects run by the provincial party committee and the provincial government. The three-year enrollment rate of pre-school education and the number of children per 10,000 population have been in the forefront of the country for more than ten years. The proportion of children in public kindergartens is 54.52%, and the inclusive rate is 92.18%. The coverage rate of demonstration pre-school education resources at all levels in the province exceeds 40%.

  New progress has been made in the balanced development of compulsory education

  In 2016, the seventh province in China fully realized the basic balanced development of county compulsory education. On this basis, we will continue to improve the standardization of compulsory education, and 100% of small-scale rural schools in the province will meet the provincial standards. It is the first in the country to start the construction of management standardization schools in an all-round way, and more than 57% of compulsory education schools have passed the management standardization assessment. The proportion of large classes in compulsory education dropped to about 0.4%, down 6.3 percentage points from 2015, and the oversized classes were completely eliminated. The proportion of migrant children attending public schools reached 92.8%. Pay close attention to the control of dropping out of school to help get rid of poverty, and 100% of school-age children from poor families in the province have been persuaded to return to school.

  High-quality characteristics of ordinary high schools achieve new breakthroughs.

  During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, a total of 70 high schools reached the standard and advanced, with 90% of public high schools reaching the standard level and above, 91% of students in high schools reaching the standard level, 30% of high schools reaching the standard level at the provincial level and 44% of students in high schools reaching the standard level at the provincial level. Select and cultivate 44 demonstration high schools, and increase the cultivation of characteristic schools and projects.

  Special education for disabled children has reached a new level.

  We will improve the enrollment ledger of disabled children and implement the "one person, one case" classified education and resettlement, and the enrollment rate of disabled children will reach the highest level in history. We will fully implement the policy of "four exemptions and two subsidies" for disabled students from preschool to senior high school (tuition and miscellaneous fees, textbook fees, exercise books, accommodation fees, and subsidies for boarding students’ living expenses and transportation expenses). In 2020, the average public funds for special education students will reach 9,500 yuan, and the boarding students’ living allowance will be 3,000 yuan, so that disabled students can enter school with bags.

  Grasp reform and improve quality

  The teaching opening system has been gradually improved.

  Since 2017, there have been 33 teaching opening activities at the provincial level, 67 schools have been hosted, and about 70,000 teachers have participated in the observation and discussion, effectively building a communication platform for teachers in the province to show themselves, learn from each other and improve together.

  High-quality resource clusters have initially taken shape.

  At the provincial level, we selected 23 experimental zones for the reform and development of basic education, 424 kindergartens for the reform and construction of guaranteed education, 978 schools for the demonstration of compulsory education reform, 99 high school curriculum reform bases, and 67 high-quality subject curriculum construction projects, forming a new pattern of education and teaching reform that combines point with area and cultivates at different levels.

  The cultivation of teaching achievements has shown results.

  At the provincial level, a teaching achievement selection and promotion system was established, and the second national basic education teaching achievement award was evaluated, winning 21 items, nearly quadrupling the first one, ranking fifth in the country and 21 percentage points higher than the national average. Gulou District and Nan ‘an City were selected as demonstration areas for the popularization and application of outstanding teaching achievements in basic education of the Ministry of Education.

  Smooth implementation of the new curriculum in ordinary senior high schools

  Print and distribute the implementation plan of the new curriculum reform in ordinary high schools, revise and improve the academic level examination and comprehensive quality evaluation system in ordinary high schools, and promote the reform of educational methods. Three schools, including Sanming City and Sanming No.9 Middle School, were selected as national demonstration zones and demonstration schools for the implementation of new courses and textbooks in ordinary high schools.

  Grasp governance and increase efficiency

  The reform of management mechanism continued to deepen.

  We will continue to promote reforms such as district management, "entrusted management" of weak schools, group-run schools, and precise assistance. The number of school groups has expanded to 133, involving 380 schools. The "entrusted management" pilot of weak schools in rural areas covers 590 rural compulsory education schools and benefits 208,500 students; Establish a precise assistance mechanism for kindergartens (classes) attached to small-scale schools in remote rural areas to achieve full coverage and no dead ends.

  The fairness of enrollment has been gradually promoted.

  Formulate and issue the "Implementation Opinions on the Reform of Entrance Examination System for Senior High Schools in Fujian Province" to promote the smooth transition of the reform of the senior high school entrance examination. Adhere to the policy of allocating high-quality ordinary high schools to rural junior high schools and junior high schools in urban areas with no choice of students at least 50% of the total enrollment plan. We will fully implement the simultaneous enrollment policy for citizens’ compulsory education, and the enrollment of "computer lottery" in private schools will be fully promoted.

Provincial-level re-evaluation of first-class high schools, a total of 39 high schools have been rectified or downgraded within a time limit, so as to achieve real progress and promote improvement, and the social response is positive.

  

 

Bohemian Rhapsody is not the only rock biopic that makes people feel excited.

Yu Wei, who won four Oscar statuettes (best actor, best editing, best sound effect and best sound effect editing) in one fell swoop, is based on the film Bohemian Rhapsody, the life story of Queen lead singer Freddie Mercury, which landed in major cinemas in China on March 22nd. Since the film was released in the United States and other places last November, it has won $870 million at the global box office, ranking first in the history of box office music biographies.

At the same time of box office sales, critics did not agree with Bohemian Rhapsody. On the film review website "Rotten Tomato", its favorable rate barely passed the passing line (61%). The film is co-produced by two members of the band, Brian May and Roger Taylor. Although the authenticity of the content is guaranteed, it can also save troubles such as subsequent lawsuits, but it is also inevitably limited and tied. Simran Hans, a film critic of the British Observer, criticized the scripts written by Anthony McCarten (Dark Hour, The Theory of Everything) for being too plain.

In fact, it is always a thankless attempt to shoot biographies of rock musicians, and polarized comments are sparse and common. Although the life experience of rock musicians is often passionate and magnificent, it is an excellent material for movies; However, in view of their high public awareness, there are not a few diehard fans who think they know idols like the back of their hands, so it is inevitable that people are unable to agree. However, the rock biographies that can be recognized by most fans are not unique. For example, the following ten films, the first nine of which are from the "Top30 Best Music Biography in History" selected by Rolling Stone magazine in 2016, and Nicole in 1988 are among the best rock biographies born in recent years. It is worth mentioning that "The Rose" alludes to Janis Joplin’s life, and "Velvet Goldmine" alludes to David Bowie’s contacts with Mick Lan Sen, Iggy Pop and Lou Reed.

The Buddy Holly Story) 1978).

In this film about the late Texas great rock musician buddy holly directed by Steve Rash, Gary Busey, the leading actor, sang Holly’s masterpieces in person, and was well-deserved to be nominated for an Oscar. The rock spirit injected by Busser in the film is quite pure, which is rarely seen in similar works in Hollywood. Fundamentally speaking, the most far-reaching influence of this film lies in its successful re-introduction of Holly’s music to American audiences. In the hottest age of disco, the topic triggered by this film pushed Buddy Holly Lives, a selected record, to the 55th place on Billboard.

Elvis elvis presley (1979)

Since the premature death of Elvis Presley in 1977, many biographies of Elvis Presley have been produced in the film and television industry, but today, this TV movie directed by John Carpenter is still one of the best. Prior to this, Kurt Russell, the leading actor, was mainly known for his role in Disney live-action movies such as The Computer Wore Tennessee Shoes, but he was nominated for an Emmy Award for his wonderful performance as Elvis Presley. He perfectly captured the depth of the superstar in a way that was completely irrelevant to parody. He didn’t really sing in this movie-he was only in charge of lip-synching, and Ronnie McDowell, a country music singer, was in charge of the voice, but his stage performance did highly reproduce the power and shock that Elvis showed when he was on stage. For the darker side of Elvis Presley’s personality, the film has not lightly weakened it; The scene where Russell shot and smashed the hotel TV set is the most unforgettable scene in all Elvis Presley movies.

Sid and Nancy) 1986)

The film records how Sid Vicious, a member of the British rock band Sex Pistol, slipped down the drug abyss step by step until he finally killed his girlfriend and died of an overdose himself. In fact, the relationship between this film and music is not so close. Now, Sid Vicious’s music is not even like punk music, but more like progressive rock’s: look at the slow motion of him and Nancy kissing in the garbage rain next to the trash can, and you will understand that his music is similar to orchestral music compared with the roar that gushes directly from the depths of his throat.

Apart from music, Gary Oldman’s self-destructive personal charm on Sid is so magical that even John Lydon, the lead singer of "Sex Pistol", angrily cursed the director Alex Cox to die after watching the movie, but he was still moved by Odeman’s performance and gave him high praise.

La Bamba) 1987)

With the superb acting skills of Lou Diamond Phillips, who plays Mexican-born rock star Richie Valens, and Esai Morales, who plays his brother Bob, the film Legend of Youth reproduces the ups and downs of the last eight months of 17-year-old Vallans’s life in detail: an ordinary high school student became legendary overnight and soon became a tragic plane crash.

This film not only records his early death, but also touches on the racial conflicts throughout Los Angeles in the late 1950s and the hardships of Hispanics. However, the core of the film is to reiterate Vallans’s enduring influence on pop music: as a result, the film did make Los Lobos’ reinterpretation of Vallans’s classic music reach the top of the record charts.

The Doors) 1991)

When the film was released, the late Roger Ebert, a well-known film critic, complained: "The process of watching this film is like a person who doesn’t drink and is forced to sit in a bar with an annoying drunk." It may be true, but director Oliver Stone has a magnificent sense of movement and absurdity for the commemoration of Jim Morrison, the lead singer of the "Gate" band. The film shows rock and roll to the extreme, and even if it is destroyed, it will be destroyed spectacularly.

Morrison, played by Val Kilmer, is the most wonderful performance in his career. Instead of mythologizing the singer who died young at the age of 27, he represented the hedonism of Los Angeles in the 1960 s by portraying him after being drugged by hormones, alcohol and drugs. His interpretation of Morrison is both like a hero and absurd, full of nonsense and poetic.

As for Morrison, director Si Tong didn’t judge him, but only created a psychedelic voice and a picture of ecstasy. However, the audience who experienced a crazy trip in the film should not want to imitate Morrison’s self-destructive behavior.

Backbeat) 1994)

Although the soundtrack of "Years of Passion" can’t be said to be a real reproduction of the original sound-those songs were re-interpreted by a super group including Thurston Moore, Dave Grohl, Mike Mills and Greg Dulli, but the anarchic energy they burst out was enough to make up for this shortcoming. The film focuses on The Beatles’ early experience of singing in Hamburg, Germany. At that time, they were still covering other people’s works, which also made it less regrettable not to use the original sound.

This film focuses on the story of idol characters before they become idols, focusing on finding those personality characteristics in them that will make them immortal soon. Ian Hart plays John Lennon, the lead singer of the Beatles, for the second time after The Hours and Times directed by Christopher Münch. His feeling is a little weird, which is not just a simple imitation, but an introduction of thoughts and feelings.

However, the focus of the film is not only on John Lennon. Director Iain Softley wisely focused the spotlight on the forgotten early members of the Beatles, especially the hapless bassist Stuart Sutcliffe played by Stephen Dorff.

The Last Days) 2005)

When Nirvana’s lead singer Kurt Cobain died, he did not forget to tell us that "better to burn out than fade away". However, the doppelganger of Kurt Cobain shown by director Gus Van Sant in "The Last Days" has faded so much that he is almost an invisible man.

In that big empty house in the forest of Washington State, Blake, the hero played by Michael Pitt (Kurt Cobain’s name is not used in this film), walks slowly back and forth, surrounded by a group of parasites who only notice his existence when he reaches out and asks for money or drugs. It seems that he doesn’t look like a person who is about to commit suicide, but more like a walking corpse who has already lost his life-the soul is dead, just waiting for the body to end.

The film imagines a rock star’s suicide path, replaces the explanation with ambiguity, explains everything clearly and tells the whole story so that the audience can feel comfortable, thus launching a challenge. The film itself is as confusing and fragmented as those lyrics written by Kurt Cobain, but there is no cathartic anger in his lyrics at all.

I’m not there (2007)

Bob Dylan can be said to be one of the greatest "chameleons" in the history of rock music. It is not easy to cover his whole life with one movie. Therefore, Todd Haynes, a director who knows the spirit of rock and roll, adopted such an approach. He divided Dylan’s whole life into several parts according to different times and influences, and invited Cate Blanchett, richard gere, Christian Bale, Ben Whishaw and others to interpret every different fragment of Dylan’s rich and colorful life mosaic respectively.

After watching this movie, it will undoubtedly make the audience have no idea about Bob Dylan’s life, but it will make them more curious about him. Instead of adopting the traditional biographical film method of chronological memorabilia, it captures the essence of Dylan at a higher level: for so many years, he constantly reformed himself and rebuilt the whole world. On a certain level, it seems that this film only dabbles in a variety of film styles-imitating the looks and feelings of Ge Daer, A Hard Day’s Night, Eight and a Half, and the American New School Westerns in the 1970s, respectively, but on a deeper level, the film’s wonderful exploration of Dylan himself is as energetic as Dylan himself.

Control) 2007)

Anton Corbijn, a photographer, has been dealing with rock stars for a long time, taking photos for rock musicians with different styles, from U2 to "Depeche Mode" to Tom Waits. Therefore, it’s not surprising that his directorial debut is aimed at rock musicians.

In this biopic of Ian Curtis, the lead singer of Joy Division, the hero played by Sam Riley was a melancholy young man long before he killed himself at the age of 23. However, this drama, which focuses on simplicity, can really make people realize that kind of sadness because it shows the depression that Curtis can’t get rid of all his short life without creating any illusion. In this way, the film avoids the typical route of "from poor to rich and then back to poor" in biographies: Curtis of Riley is not an angry egoist, on the contrary, he is a tortured soul in his heart, and he turns his pain into beautiful music until he is finally swallowed up by it. Like the record of "Happy Team", the film itself has a most direct and diffuse sense of desolation.

Nicole in 1988 (Nico, 1988) 2017

The film focuses on the last year of a woman named Christa P?ffgen (Nicole’s real name), rather than Nicole’s lovely eyes and graceful figure when she is with The Velvet Underground. At the age of 49, she tried to get rid of the label of "Nicole", so she declared: "My life began with leaving underground velvet." She said that she originally wanted to grow old gracefully and calmly, but there were ugly wrinkles on her face and fat on her body. While being trapped by drugs, he is worried about his son who has a tendency to self-destruction; The only constant is that her voice is still hoarse and deep, and she still uses up all her strength when singing. Through this movie, we understand that this woman can never be who she really wants to be throughout her life.

In addition to the excellent atmosphere control of Italian female directors Susanna Nicchiarelli, the interpretation of Danish actress Trine Dyrholm is also the essence of this film: she not only has the right expression and manner, but also has a high degree of restoration when she personally sings Nicole’s masterpieces such as "These Days", "My Heart is Empty" and "Big in Japan".

Gold prices hit a record high, Economic Daily: Gold investment should avoid blindly chasing high.

On March 21st, the spot price of gold in London hit a record high of $2,222.91 per ounce. Since the beginning of this year, the international gold price has been rising, but the high price seems to be unable to stop consumers’ enthusiasm for buying, and it has also ignited the gold accumulation business, which has a tendency of "the higher the price, the more I buy". So, is gold still suitable for buying at this stage?

To answer this question, we must first understand the reasons for this round of high international gold prices. Externally, factors such as the intensification of geopolitical conflicts and the continuous "gold buying fever" of many central banks have provided support for the rise in gold prices, but the core reason is the increase in the market’s expectation of the Fed’s interest rate cut.

In the international market, gold is denominated in dollars, so the direction of the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy has always been an important factor affecting the price of gold. Generally speaking, there is a "seesaw" relationship between the gold price and the dollar trend, that is, when the Fed raises interest rates to make the dollar strong, the gold price falls; Conversely, when the Federal Reserve cut interest rates and made the dollar weak, the price of gold rose. Since last year, against the background of falling inflation data in the United States, the Federal Reserve raised interest rates for the last time in July last year, and the market had already expected the shift of monetary policy. In addition, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell has publicly stated many times this year that it is expected to cut interest rates during the year, and the market’s expectation for the Fed to cut interest rates has further increased, which has continuously pushed up the price of gold.

It should be noted that expectations are only expectations after all. On March 20, local time in the United States, the Federal Reserve announced that it would keep the target range of the federal funds rate unchanged at 5.25% to 5.5%, and said that it was "inappropriate" to lower the target range of the federal funds rate until it had greater confidence in the inflation rate’s long-term goal of 2%. In the eyes of the industry, the Fed’s wavering attitude and this year’s US presidential election will bring more uncertainty to the market.

In the face of uncertain factors, whether to "get on the bus" or not, investors should act cautiously on the one hand, and look at the specific needs on the other. Gold has both monetary and commodity attributes. If there is consumer demand, especially for physical gold at weddings, Chinese New Year and other nodes, then buy it. After all, gold has many beautiful meanings in China, such as "love is stronger than gold" and "good fortune", which has become a consumer’s just need to some extent. At the same time, the weight of jewelry gold is relatively light, so consumers only need to live within their means, and do not have to worry too much about the time of purchase, so they can buy their favorite styles.

From the investment point of view, the more noisy the market is, the more investors need to think calmly. As a traditional safe-haven asset, the greatest value of gold lies in its anchoring value, which can be used as a part of its own diversified asset allocation to realize the dispersion of risks. It is obviously unreasonable and unrealistic to regard gold as the target that can make the value of assets grow rapidly. When dealing with gold investment, investors should accumulate a certain gold knowledge reserve, pay more attention to the macro-index changes that have an impact on the gold market, and form their own judgment logic for the future price trend. It is also necessary to understand the characteristics and risks of financial products such as physical gold, gold accumulation business and gold ETF, and determine the investment mode and allocation ratio of gold in the portfolio according to its own risk tolerance and investment objectives, and do not blindly pursue high investment.

Beautiful shape/quality needs to be improved. Guanzhi 3 Long-term test

● Upgrade software.

  At the same time, the staff of 4S shop told us that we could upgrade the software for the vehicle, including/system, body control module, environmental control unit, control module, electronics, dashboard, lighting control system, multimedia host and parking control module.

  The whole upgrade process takes about 4 hours. In order to ensure that the vehicle is always powered on during the upgrade process, and to avoid the adverse impact of long-term idling on the engine, and also to protect the environment and save fuel, the 4S shop will connect the external power supply to the vehicle during the upgrade process and stop at the exclusive station. In order to prevent power failure caused by misoperation, the staff will basically not do other operations on the vehicle during the whole upgrade process. Therefore, if you want to upgrade the software and replace the window regulator together like us, I suggest you communicate with the 4S shop by phone in advance before going to avoid inconvenience.

  After the upgrade, there are two most obvious feelings. First of all, the opening and closing mode of the high beam has become more dominant. The original way to turn on the high beam is to push the turn signal lever forward, which is the same as most cars, but the way to turn off the high beam is different, which is to push it forward again. It is said that this design has been criticized by many car owners. Therefore, after this upgrade, the way of turning off the high beam has been adjusted, from pushing forward again to dialing backward, and the operation is the same as that of most cars.

  In addition to the high beam switching mode, the background light of the instrument panel has changed from the original linkage with the headlights to a constant light, which has a better visual field effect. At the same time, the font of the color LCD screen in the middle of the dashboard has also been adjusted. In particular, the color of the navigation road name we criticized before has finally changed from the original crimson word to white, which is obviously clearer. However, our wish to improve the recognition rate of navigation handwriting, which we had been looking forward to before the upgrade, was finally failed, and the recognition rate of navigation handwriting was still incomprehensible.

  As for the body control module, environmental control unit, engine control module, electronic power steering and parking control module included in the upgrade, how much impact will it have on the actual car experience, which needs further careful observation, and we will introduce it to you in the next episode.

● Fuel consumption performance in the ninth stage: the average fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is about 10.5L/100km.

Long-term test fuel consumption record of Guanzhi 3 1.6T automatic realization type. date mileage(km) Fuel quantity (l) road conditions oil consumption
(L/100km)
8/22-8/30 12630 40.01 Rush hour+expressway

11.86 Summary: This trip was 1265km, and the fuel consumption was 132.71L, with an average fuel consumption of about 10.5L/100km.

  At the end of this issue, let’s share with you the latest fuel consumption performance, which can be said to have surprised us again. Actually, the "highest fuel consumption since the car was picked up" of 11.86L/100km was opened. Of course, this is related to the traffic jam in Shanghai after the school started in September. It can be clearly seen from the table that at the end of August, the fuel consumption was only 9.25L/100 km, and then it soared. The fuel consumption calculated when refueling on September 4 was 10.18L/100km, and then reached a new high of 11.86L/100km. Taken together, during this period, we traveled 1265 kilometers, refueled 132.71L, and the average fuel consumption was 10.5L/100km. This fuel consumption data is indeed high for a 1.6T model. Fortunately, in the middle and late September, the weather began to turn cold, and the frequency of using air conditioners will gradually decrease. We will continue to pay attention to whether this will improve fuel consumption.

■ Summary of this issue:

  In this issue, we sent 3 to 4S shop to replace the window regulator and upgrade the software. 4S shop can take the initiative to ask questions and make claims during the second insurance, and arrange for subsequent replacement. The service is still good. Just for new cars, it is necessary to disassemble the door trim panel, which I think will make the owner feel uncomfortable, and there is no public recall of such accessories defects, which we think is not very appropriate. As for the software upgrade, as far as the adjustment and upgrade of the opening and closing mode of the high beam we can intuitively feel at present, the result is still worthy of recognition, and it is indeed more comfortable to use than the original, and we commend it. Well, the long-term test update of this issue is over. Let’s spoil the content of the tenth issue, which will include the change of driving state of the vehicle after the software upgrade and the experience with the function of this car. Please look forward to it. (Text/Huang Zhengqiao Sheng Yuanjun Li Dianbin)
