Steady progress! "Four Highlights" Eye-catching China’s economy opens a new game in the first quarter.

CCTV News:The State Council Press Office held a press conference on the morning of April 16th, and the relevant person in charge of the National Bureau of Statistics released the main data of national economic operation in the first quarter. From the perspective of various core indicators, China’s economy continued to pick up and made a good start.

According to preliminary accounting, in the first quarter of 2024, the GDP was 296.299 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 5.3% at constant prices. In terms of industries, the added value of the primary industry was 1,153.8 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 3.3%; The added value of the secondary industry was 10,984.6 billion yuan, an increase of 6.0%; The added value of the tertiary industry was 17,491.5 billion yuan, an increase of 5.0%.

In the first quarter, industrial production grew rapidly. The added value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 6.1% year-on-year, and that of high-tech manufacturing increased by 7.5%, 2.6 percentage points faster than that in the fourth quarter of last year. 1— In February, the total profits of industrial enterprises above designated size reached 914.1 billion yuan, up 10.2% year-on-year.

In the first quarter, market sales grew steadily and service consumption grew rapidly. The total retail sales of social consumer goods was 12,032.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.7%. Retail sales of services increased by 10.0% year-on-year.

The total import and export volume of goods was 10,169.3 billion yuan, up 5.0% year-on-year, and the trade structure continued to be optimized. Investment in fixed assets in China increased by 4.5% year-on-year, 1.5 percentage points faster than that in the previous year, and investment in high-tech industries increased rapidly.

In the first quarter, the national consumer price was flat year-on-year, and the employment situation was generally stable. The income of residents has increased steadily, and the income of rural residents has increased faster than that of urban residents.

Sheng Laiyun, deputy director of the National Bureau of Statistics, said that on the whole, the national economy started well in the first quarter, and the positive factors accumulated, which laid a good foundation for achieving the goals and tasks for the whole year.

The contribution rate of consumption to economic growth reached 73.7% in the first quarter.

In the economic data of the first quarter, we also selected several highlights:Strong consumption vitality, overall stable prices, continuous cultivation of new quality productivity, and industrial recovery.. First of all, in terms of consumption, in the first quarter, the contribution rate of consumption to economic growth reached 73.7%, which played an important supporting role in the economic recovery.

In the first quarter, physical consumption was generally stable. The total retail sales of social consumer goods increased by 4.7% year-on-year in the first quarter, and the total retail sales of social consumer goods exceeded 12 trillion yuan.

At the same time, service consumption grew rapidly. In the first quarter, the retail sales of services increased by 10% year-on-year, which was 6 percentage points higher than the retail sales of commodities. Residents’ service consumption expenditure accounted for 43.3%, an increase of 1.6 percentage points over the same period last year. Service consumption is accelerating.

In addition, online consumption continues to be strong. In the first quarter, the online retail sales of physical goods increased by 11.6% year-on-year. Driven by some new technologies, the new online sales model was constantly innovated and the sales record was constantly refreshed.

Since the beginning of this year, the upgrading consumption of Chinese residents has continued to improve. From the retail point of view, the year-on-year growth rate of sales of sports and entertainment products and communication equipment exceeded double digits. From the perspective of residents, the expenditure on transportation and communication, education, culture and entertainment are also double-digit growth.

In the first quarter, the consumer price index was generally stable.

Consumption is full of vitality. At the same time, the consumer price index (CPI) is generally stable. Official website, the National Bureau of Statistics, released a trend chart on the rise and fall of consumer prices in China, with the blue chart showing year-on-year and the yellow chart showing month-on-month. It can be seen that in March 2024, the national consumer price rose by 0.1% year-on-year and decreased by 1.0% quarter-on-quarter. At the press conference, Sheng Laiyun, deputy director of the National Bureau of Statistics, analyzed that the data in March was mainly due to the seasonal decline in prices after the Spring Festival, and the prices of services such as food and tourism dropped significantly. From a quarterly perspective, the consumer price index is generally stable.

Sheng Laiyun said that from the CPI index itself, the CPI was negative in the fourth quarter of last year, and the average CPI in the fourth quarter was -0.3%, while the CPI in the first quarter of this year was flat year-on-year. From the perspective of ring comparison, the ring comparison in the first quarter of this year was 0.3 percentage points higher than that in the fourth quarter of last year, which is consistent with the economic recovery.

Sheng Laiyun said that from the future trend, consumer prices will slowly pick up at a low level. On the one hand, the economy continues to improve and the total demand is picking up, which is a very important fundamental factor to support the CPI recovery. In addition, the prices of some agricultural products have also reached the inflection point of price adjustment, such as the price of live pigs. The next holiday consumption, including "May Day", will continue to drive the tourism-related travel consumer prices to pick up.

New quality productivity is constantly being cultivated and developed.

Judging from the relevant data in the first quarter, the development of new quality productivity has also begun to show new results in some industries and products.

From the perspective of new industries, emerging industries continue to accelerate their development. In the first quarter, the added value of high-tech manufacturing above designated size increased by 7.5% year-on-year, up by 2.6 percentage points over the fourth quarter of last year; The high-tech service industry continued to maintain a rapid growth trend, with the added value of information transmission, software and information technology services increasing by 13.7%, 2.5 percentage points higher than that in the fourth quarter of last year.

New investment and new infrastructure continued to show a good momentum of development. In the first quarter, investment in high-tech industries increased by 11.4% year-on-year, 1.1 percentage points higher than last year; Investment in high-tech service industry increased by 12.7%.

The upward trend of industrial economy will continue.

Sheng Laiyun, deputy director of the National Bureau of Statistics, introduced at the press conference that under the influence of various factors, the industrial recovery was good in the first quarter, and from the perspective of the development of the post-trend, the industrial economy will continue to recover. However, he also said that China is still in the stage of structural adjustment, transformation and upgrading, and some enterprises have to carry out transformation and upgrading, so they have to bear some pains of transformation.

Sheng Laiyun introduced that the industry recovered well in the first quarter, first of all, it was promoted by policies, and the confidence of enterprise development was increasing.

At the same time, there were positive changes in both internal and external demand in the first quarter. Exports in the first quarter were better than expected, and the industrial product export delivery value was 0.8% in the first quarter of this year, up 3 percentage points from the fourth quarter of last year. From the perspective of domestic demand, the added value of consumer goods in the first quarter of this year increased by 4.2% year-on-year, rising by more than 4 percentage points.

In addition, the industrial recovery is also related to the promotion of some recent policies.

Sheng Laiyun introduced that the central government has introduced a large-scale policy of upgrading equipment and replacing consumer goods with old ones, which has also enhanced the confidence of enterprises to a certain extent. Some enterprises can arrange production in advance. There is also a good reason for the rebound, which is related to the continuous cultivation of new kinetic energy.

Sheng Laiyun said that from the perspective of the post-trend, several reasons that support the industrial recovery will continue to play a role in the future, so comprehensive judgment shows that the industrial economy will continue to recover.

Sheng Laiyun said at the press conference: "In the next stage, China is still in a critical stage of structural adjustment, transformation and upgrading, and some enterprises have to carry out transformation and upgrading, so everyone has to bear some pains of transformation. Due to the adjustment of traditional industries and the cultivation of new kinetic energy, it is normal for some economic growth fluctuations to occur, but the quality of development is constantly improving and high-quality development is constantly improving. This is the fundamentals of China’s economic recovery. "

Sheng Dehua: In the depths of Gobi, the spirit of Populus euphratica flourishes.

CCTV News:106 "missile soldiers" from the frontline of combat readiness training, national defense construction and operational support were promoted to the highest rank of soldiers with their superb professional skills. They took the "letter of appointment" from the general and put on a brand-new rank of first-class master sergeant. Sheng Dehua is one of them. He said that it is a special honor and pride to be promoted to the rank of first-class master sergeant and participate in the centralized awarding ceremony. We must take the goal of strengthening the army as the guide and continue to play our professional expertise in our posts to contribute to the upgrading of combat effectiveness.

In June 1975, Sheng Dehua was born in an ordinary peasant family in Group 3, Chengwen Village, Caoyan Town, Dafeng City, Jiangsu Province. It was Sheng Dehua’s wish to be a soldier, and it was his dream in life to go to the battlefield.

Sheng Dehua joined the army in 1993, joined the party in July 1997, put on a green military uniform, entered the military camp, came to the Gobi Desert, and became a glorious plateau rocket soldier. Sheng Dehua’s shooting range post is located on the east side of Taklimakan Desert, 50 kilometers away from Fiona Fang. The surface temperature is as high as 50 degrees Celsius in summer, and the lowest temperature is MINUS 40 degrees Celsius in winter. It is windy and dusty all the year round, and there is no trace of green.

"The environment is bitter, but it is more important to work hard without suffering." Over the years, the spirit of plateau rocket soldiers has been inspiring Sheng Dehua. He and his comrades-in-arms have not been intimidated by the difficult environment and dangerous operations, and have always been meticulous in learning majors, practicing skills and building shooting ranges.

One day in May 2004, Sheng Dehua performed a dud removal task. Under the surface temperature of more than 50 degrees in the Gobi desert, he wore a bulletproof vest weighing 12 kilograms and an airtight bulletproof helmet, and drove an explosion-proof excavator to carry out the bomb disposal operation. After three hours of suffocating excavation, he finally completed the task. The fear is that a dud almost sticks to the inner wall on the right side of the bucket. If the bucket deviates from 10 cm, it is likely to trigger detonation, resulting in car crash and death.

In order to strengthen the vigilance and flood control capability of the shooting range, in June 2010, he volunteered to the brigade leader to dig a warning flood control ditch around the shooting range. At that time, the melting water of the distant snow-capped mountains was coming. In order to catch up with the time, he got up first before dawn every day and worked against the stars and the moon at eleven or twelve in the evening. There was no place to stay, so he simply lived in the cave. One night, the quilt was blown away by the wind, and he chased it for hundreds of meters with a flashlight. During the day, when the temperature in the cockpit is as high as 40 degrees, he takes off his coat and works with bare arms. A month later, a 1.5-meter-deep, 2-meter-wide and 45-kilometer-long warning flood ditch was successfully completed. With excellent operation skills, he dug the flood control ditch as straight as a ruler in the Gobi without reference objects around. Leaders who have been to the shooting range will give a thumbs up: "There is this ‘ Great Wall ’ Guarding, the shooting range safety has nothing to say. "

In the military camp, Sheng Dehua was on duty, driver and position safety officer in a certain regiment’s security company. He also served as the monitor of the road maintenance class of the array company, and he was needed to operate eight types of large machinery such as excavators, elevators and bulldozers. Soldiers regard obeying orders as their bounden duty, and every time they change their posts, they take it easy.

With enthusiasm and persistence, Sheng Dehua went deep into 12 points, including classes and posts, preached the spirit of the 18th National Congress for more than 600 officers and men for more than 20 times, conveyed the party’s voice with the real feelings of participating in the grand event, and answered the concerns of officers and men in military language, which narrowed the distance between everyone and the CPC Central Committee and strengthened the determination and will of the officers and men to take root in the plateau desert and make contributions to the military camp.

On the one hand, it is a lonely outpost, on the other hand, it is a prosperous and wealthy hometown, on the one hand, it is a job that you love, and on the other hand, it is a loved one who has always loved and deeply felt guilty. How to choose? "What makes this profession brilliant is not the military uniform, but the belief that it is hidden in the heart. As a contemporary revolutionary soldier, we must always insist on not abandoning our yearning for ideals and not giving up our persistence in faith. " This is the answer given by Sheng Dehua.

Resolutely rectify market chaos. In the past two years, the cumulative disposal of non-performing loans has exceeded 4 trillion yuan.

  Cctv news: "Balance the relationship between steady growth and risk prevention. We are confident and capable of winning the battle to prevent and resolve financial risks. " On July 4th, the State Council held a press conference on the effectiveness of measures to promote the structural reform of the financial supply side. The relevant person in charge of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission said that since the beginning of this year, China’s banking and insurance industry has continuously promoted the structural reform of the financial supply side, and the quality effect of financial services to the real economy has been continuously improved.

  That night, "News Network" broadcast the relevant content. In fact, the conference also said a lot about preventing and defusing financial risks, especially what measures China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission has used and what results have been achieved in the past two years.

  Positive progress has been made in preventing and resolving financial risks.

  Liang Zhou, Vice Chairman of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, China, said that China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission dares to fight, take responsibility and confront difficulties, resolutely rectify market chaos and increase penalties. Over the past two years, more than 6 billion yuan has been confiscated, exceeding the total punishment in the previous ten years, and more than 8,000 people have been punished for violating the rules, which has formed a powerful shock.

  Punishment is a means, not an end. The purpose is to force banks and insurance institutions to implement their main responsibilities through supervision and responsibility, maintain market order, protect the fundamental interests of the people, and firmly hold the bottom line that systemic financial risks do not occur.

  With the efforts of all parties, the risks of high-risk institutions have been gradually resolved, and major cases of illegal fund-raising are being disposed of in an orderly manner. The effect of risk reduction in peer-to-peer lending is quite obvious.

  The number of online lending institutions decreased by 57% compared with the beginning of 2018.

  Unswervingly dismantle the high-risk shadow banks, and over the past two years, we have greatly reduced the high-risk financial assets with layers of nesting, complex structure and self-circulation by 13.74 trillion yuan, effectively curbing the financial reality.

  At the same time, vigorously eradicate the soil of credit risk. In the past two years, the cumulative disposal of non-performing loans has exceeded 4 trillion yuan. At present, the non-performing loan ratio of the banking industry has stabilized at around 2%, and the provision coverage ratio has exceeded 175%. The main regulatory indicators such as the capital adequacy ratio of commercial banks and the comprehensive solvency adequacy ratio of insurance companies are at a good level.

  Liang Zhou pointed out that "ammunition" to resist risks is sufficient. Financial risks have gradually turned from divergence to convergence, which is generally controllable.

  Liang Zhou also said that he was clearly aware that there were still many gaps and deficiencies in the banking and insurance industry. If you want to understand and say it clearly, you must finally implement it. In the next step, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission will continue to deepen the structural reform of the financial supply side, focus on enhancing the ability of financial services to the real economy, deepen financial reform and opening up, and balance the relationship between steady growth and risk prevention.

  "We are confident and capable of winning the tough battle to prevent and resolve financial risks, promoting the continuous development of the banking and insurance industry to high quality, and providing stronger financial support for building a well-off society in an all-round way." Liang Zhou said firmly.

  Cure chaos, make up shortcomings, maintain high-pressure situation, and rectify according to laws and regulations.

  Liang Tao, Vice Chairman of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, China, made supplementary remarks on the work of dealing with chaos and making up shortcomings in the insurance industry. He said that in recent years, due to various reasons, China’s insurance institutions have experienced a rapid development stage, and there have also been blind expansion and chaos. Chaos is mainly manifested in weak corporate governance, illegal use of funds, improper product innovation, misleading sales, untrue financial business data and so on.

  After the Party Committee of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission was formally established, in May 2018, a meeting was held to promote the work of deepening the rectification of chaos in the banking and insurance markets. Require a comprehensive self-examination, leaving no dead ends. Deploy all insurance institutions to focus on the rectification of market chaos, check their own problems and make serious rectification.

  The regulatory authorities also focused on key points and carried out regulatory inspections in a solid manner. In 2018, the regulatory authorities conducted 1,466 inspections of insurance institutions, with a total investment of 9,793 person-times. This year, the regulatory authorities at all levels continue to pay attention to the outstanding risks and problems in the insurance industry, and are now entering the market one after another to carry out inspections, which mainly cover corporate governance, solvency, capital utilization, auto insurance, agricultural insurance, short-term health insurance and so on.

  Through strict punishment according to the law and regulations, we will maintain a high-pressure situation. In particular, the double penalty system has been implemented, and the punishment for senior executives has been strengthened. Various punishment measures have been taken comprehensively, such as limiting the business scope, ordering to stop accepting new business, revoking business licenses, revoking qualifications, and prohibiting entry into the insurance industry, so as to effectively increase the cost of violating laws and regulations, making institutions afraid, unable and unwilling to violate regulations.

  Through continuous rectification, obvious results have been achieved, and the chaos in the insurance market has been corrected to a great extent.

  Powerful shock the illegal subject. From January to May this year, 277 insurance institutions were punished, and institutions were fined more than 44 million yuan, ordered to stop accepting new business for 15 times, and their business licenses were revoked for 2 times. 416 responsible persons were punished, individuals were fined nearly 16 million yuan, and 18 people were disqualified.

  The shortcomings of the system have been effectively compensated. Since 2018, more than 20 regulations and normative documents have been revised. Some problems such as lag, absence, overlapping and conflict have been effectively solved, and the institutional systems in key areas such as corporate governance, capital utilization, product management, consumer rights protection and self-construction of regulatory capacity have been further improved and perfected.

  There are major risks in institutions, and the failure of corporate governance is an important reason.

  Corporate governance is the "bull’s nose" for banks and insurance institutions to prevent risks and develop steadily. Many institutions have major risks, and the failure of corporate governance is an important reason. Some reporters have raised relevant questions.

  In response to a question, Liang Tao said that some time ago, some cases occurred in the financial field, reflecting some outstanding problems in corporate governance of some operating institutions, mainly manifested in opaque and irregular equity relations, such as the problem of holding shares on behalf of others; There is also extensive management of related party transactions, and there is a problem of interest transfer; The development strategy blindly pursues extensive expansion, and the internal control does not match the development speed. In some institutions, the equity management is chaotic, the governance mechanism is ineffective, the "three meetings and one layer" is ineffective, and risks are accumulating.

  China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission attaches great importance to corporate governance. Since the establishment of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission in late March 2018, a symposium on corporate governance of small and medium-sized banks and insurance institutions was held in April to improve the corporate governance mechanism, organize research and deployment of banking and insurance industries.

  After the promulgation of the "three-set plan", the corporate governance supervision department was set up to co-ordinate the corporate governance supervision of banks and insurance industries. By filling the shortcomings of the system, strengthening inspection and evaluation, and strengthening accountability, we will continue to promote the banking and insurance industries to improve the compliance and effectiveness of corporate governance. In the practice of supervision, we will implement differentiated supervision for different institutions according to specific conditions.

  For large state-owned banks and insurance companies, we should improve the contents, rules and procedures of "three majors and one big" decision-making. For small and medium-sized commercial banks and insurance companies, we will focus on rectifying the chaos of shareholders’ equity and management transactions, and severely crack down on violations of shareholders’ equity and the transfer of benefits through illegal related party transactions.

  In the next step, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission will focus on improving the effectiveness of corporate governance of banking and insurance institutions, and continue to strengthen corporate governance supervision. First, make up for the shortcomings of corporate governance supervision system, improve the supervision system of corporate governance in banking and insurance industry, and fill the shortcomings in corporate governance mechanism, equity management and transaction management. The second is to evaluate the corporate governance of banking and insurance institutions, and rectify and implement the problems found. The third is to promote the construction of information system of corporate governance supervision, and improve the information level and scientific level of corporate governance supervision.

  After low interest rate funds are lent to enterprises, the relevant funds are used for arbitrage.

  In the first five months of this year, the average interest rate of new loans for inclusive small and micro enterprises issued by five large commercial banks was 4.79%, which was 0.65 percentage points lower than the average level of last year. Some people worry that the interest rate is too low and will not be sustainable in the future. Yang Liping, chief procurator of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, China, answered this question by herself when answering a reporter’s question. She said that it can be analyzed from the following aspects:

  From the positioning point of view, large banks issue loans to small and micro enterprises, and the positioning is to protect capital and make small profits. By strengthening cost accounting, improving risk control and constantly improving products and services, banks position micro-financial services as protecting capital and making small profits.

  Second, the state has given preferential policies for loans to small and micro enterprises. For example, the People’s Bank of China implemented the targeted cuts to required reserve ratios in inclusive finance to create targeted medium-term lending facilities, and the finance and taxation departments also have relevant policies, all of which are required to be reflected in the loan pricing of small and micro enterprises.

  Third, through big data and cloud computing, large banks can identify risks more accurately and reduce excessive dependence on mortgage guarantees, thus reducing their own capital costs, operating costs and risk costs.

  Finally, she added that the relevant departments also noticed that there were very few cases in the supervision practice. After individual banks lent low-interest funds to enterprises, the relevant funds were used for arbitrage and bought wealth management products. In this regard, banks are also required to strengthen the management of loan flow, so that low-cost funds will not be misappropriated and better serve small and micro enterprises.

  In the next step, we will continue to promote services related to small and micro enterprises, including formulating an evaluation system and conducting unannounced visits to enterprises. We will conduct unannounced visits to enterprises in July, August and September this year.

People’s Daily reporter visited Myitsone Hydropower Station in Myanmar after the shutdown: Both China and Myanmar lost.

Recently, the People’s Daily reporter visited Myitsone Hydropower Station in Myanmar after the shutdown, and investigated the living conditions of local people in Myanmar and the losses suffered by China Power Investment Group (hereinafter referred to as China Power Investment Corporation) after the suspension of the project. The People’s Daily published this survey article on January 3, 2014.

Myitsone Hydropower Station is the largest hydropower station in the hydropower development project in the upper reaches of Irrawaddy River signed by the governments of China and Myanmar. In March 2009, the governments of China and Myanmar signed the Framework Agreement on Cooperative Development of Hydropower Resources in Myanmar. The installed capacity of Myitsone Hydropower Station is 6 million kilowatts, with a total investment of 3.6 billion US dollars. Construction started first in December 2009, and the first unit is planned to generate electricity in 2017. However, on September 30, 2011, Myanmar President Thein Sein suddenly announced that the Myitsone hydropower project was temporarily put on hold during his term of office on the grounds of "people’s will".

Due to the suspension of the project, both China and Myanmar have suffered huge losses. The main investor, China Power Investment Corporation, bears the brunt. It goes without saying that the initial investment of 7 billion yuan is self-evident, and the financial interest and personnel maintenance fees of these funds are increasing at a rate of 300 million yuan per year. At the same time, the company faces huge claims for breach of contract from suppliers, construction units and other relevant contractors.

Myanmar suffered even more losses. According to the original plan, 30,000 people need to be employed locally for the construction, but only 78,000 people have emigrated to all the Yijiang projects, and all the laborers can be employed during the construction of the power station. Nowadays, many immigrants have no livelihood. Secondly, the confidence of foreign investment has been hit hard. Foreign investment in Myanmar has dropped sharply from $20 billion in fiscal year 2010-2011 to $1.49 billion in fiscal year 2012-2013. Third, economic growth has been frustrated. Experts estimate that Myanmar’s GDP will lose $5 billion every year when Myitsone Power Station is stopped, compared with $40 billion last year. The development of electric power is blocked, which may affect the realization of its goal of tripling its GDP in 2030.

According to the People’s Daily reporter, the Burmese people who opened a shop near the construction site said: "The villagers are actually not opposed to the construction of hydropower stations. Everyone is more concerned about livelihood and safety. We certainly welcome the construction of a safe hydropower station that allows us to use electricity and promote employment."

Among the reasons why some non-governmental organizations oppose the construction of Myitsone Hydropower Station, the clause of selling 90% of electricity to China has aroused nationalist sentiment in the hearts of Burmese people and catered to the western accusation that "China plundered Myanmar’s resources". But these accusations are untenable. According to the calculation, the installed capacity of Myitsone Power Station is 6 million kilowatts, and the annual power generation is three times that of Myanmar’s annual electricity consumption in 2011, which cannot be fully digested by Myanmar’s domestic market. According to the agreement signed between China and the Myanmar government, the Myanmar government will receive 10% of the free electricity from Myitsone Hydropower Station, and at the same time, it will give priority to power supply to Myanmar, waiting for the demand in the Myanmar market to increase. It is possible for the Myitsone Hydropower Station to transmit 100% electricity to Myanmar in the future. Some non-governmental organizations don’t know this situation, and they exaggerate that "China plunders Myanmar’s resources" and incite public opinion.

China Power Investment Corporation has never given up its efforts to restart the Myitsone project. Not long ago, China Power Investment Corporation invited Wu Saimin, deputy speaker of Kachin State Parliament, to lead 21 Kachin State legislators and media representatives to inspect the Myitsone Hydropower Station project, and also invited many Myanmar media as well as international media such as Asia News Channel and BBC to interview the project site. Domestic analysts in Myanmar generally believe that whether the new government can restart Myitsone Hydropower Project after the general election in 2015 depends largely on how China persuades the Myanmar government and local political forces to accept Myitsone Hydropower Project, which is a mutually beneficial project between China and Myanmar. Cheng Zhonghua, director of Myitsone Management Department of China Power Investment Group Yijiang Upstream Hydropower Co., Ltd., told the People’s Daily reporter: "We look forward to returning to work as soon as possible."

The following is the full text of the People’s Daily reporter’s visit to Myitsone Hydropower Station in Myanmar after the shutdown.

Myitsone Hydropower Station is the largest hydropower development project in the upper reaches of Irrawaddy River signed by the Chinese and Burmese governments. According to the plan, seven cascade hydropower stations will be built in the upper reaches of the Yi River, with a total installed capacity of 20 million kilowatts, of which the installed capacity of Myitsone Hydropower Station is 6 million kilowatts.

"This project is a cooperative project signed by the governments of China and Myanmar and invited by the Myanmar government to participate in the development," Cheng Zhonghua, director of Myitsone Management Department of China Power Investment Group (hereinafter referred to as China Power Investment Corporation) Yijiang Upstream Hydropower Co., Ltd., told People’s Daily reporter that in October 2006, the Myanmar government participated in the third China — An invitation was sent to China Power Investment Corporation at the ASEAN Expo; In March 2009, the governments of China and Myanmar signed the Framework Agreement on Cooperative Development of Hydropower Resources in Myanmar. Since then, the hydropower development in the upper reaches of the Yijiang River of China Power Investment Corporation has been comprehensively promoted.

People's Daily reporter visited Myitsone Hydropower Station in Myanmar after the shutdown: Both China and Myanmar lost.

密松水电站位置

仅设备停放导致中方损失每月就高达上千万元人民币

从缅甸克钦邦首府密支那向北行驶约38千米,就是密松水电站项目部。项目部门口尽管有数名保安把守,但大门周围已经长满荒草。进入施工区域后,经常能够看到修了一半的道路,还有很多刚刚打了地基或建了一半的房屋。由于无人看管,杂草从水泥地面的裂缝中钻出来,有的已经有一人多高。

在中电投负责修建的跨伊江大桥前,记者看到这座仅仅完工了一半的桥体静静地矗立在江面上。青绿色的江水从几个巨大的混凝土桥墩旁绕过,桥墩上暴露出已经锈迹斑斑的钢筋和横梁。按照中国公司的计划,水电站修建过程中,中电投将负责为伊江两岸修建共计约800千米的公路,极大方便两岸人民的出行和交通。然而在密松水电站被叫停后,伊江两岸的公路施工也陷入停顿。

Talking about the losses caused by the shutdown to China Company, Cheng Zhonghua said that the annual loan interest of the project reached 300 million yuan. After the construction started, the company delivered large-scale construction equipment worth 700 million yuan from China to the construction site. After the work was stopped in September 2011, the equipment was parked on the construction site. For these large-scale construction equipment maintenance, maintenance and rental costs, the company will lose tens of millions of yuan every month. After a year and a half of coordination with the Myanmar government and local armed forces, and the damaged bridges were repaired, all the equipment was finally shipped back to China at the end of March 2013.

People's Daily reporter visited Myitsone Hydropower Station in Myanmar after the shutdown: Both China and Myanmar lost.

Myitsone hydropower station area

Tens of thousands of local jobs have been lost.

The reporter then went to the immigrant new village next to the project department of Myitsone Hydropower Station. This new immigrant village built on the right bank of the Yi River is Anminda Village, with a total of 325 households, while about 85 immigrants on the left bank of the Yi River are placed in Mariyang Village. According to Cheng Zhonghua, these 400-odd households with more than 2,000 people are mainly villagers in Myitsone Dam area, and they need to be resettled first.

Immigrants’ New Village was completed as early as 2010. Most of the new immigrant villages are tall wooden houses with two-story frame structure, and each household has an independent courtyard. Some villagers with better economic conditions have built cement walls on the basis of wooden houses and planted economic trees, fruit trees and flowers around the courtyard. Immigrants’ new village has opened a wide cement road and running water, with 24-hour free power supply.

The reporter visited the schools and hospitals in Xincun. Both hardware and software conditions are first-class in Myanmar. The school not only accepts students from immigrant villages, but also students from many nearby villages. The teacher of the school, Duo Changda, told the reporter: "There are only three college students in the history of Myitsone. Since the establishment of Anminda Village School, students have been admitted to universities every year, and five students have been admitted this year."

Larry, pastor of Kachin Christian Baptist Church in Anminda Village, told the reporter that some villagers originally planted fruit trees or upland rice on the mountain. After moving into the new village, the land allocated to them by the Myanmar government was far away, and the quality of the land was not good. After the project was stopped, many villagers secretly returned to the reservoir area, continued to plant fruit trees and upland rice, or went to the rivers around the Yi River to engage in activities such as gold panning.

Cheng Zhonghua told reporters that due to the shelving of the project, many people lost their jobs, and the livelihood of immigrants had problems. The company still insisted on distributing rice to immigrants every month, with a total of more than 1,000 tons, which was welcomed by the villagers. If the Myitsone project is under construction, there will be tens of thousands of direct jobs in the peak period, and the number of indirect jobs such as service industry is incalculable. The company requires that local employees be used as much as possible.

"In the past, there were many shops near the construction site, and the business and catering industries were very prosperous. However, after the suspension of the Myitsone project, not only the business of nearby shops was bleak, but also the villagers who used to work on the project lost their jobs, "Minta, who opened a shop near the construction site, told reporters." The villagers are actually not opposed to the construction of hydropower stations. Everyone is more concerned about livelihood and safety. We certainly welcome the construction of a safe hydropower station that will enable us to use electricity and promote employment. "

People's Daily reporter visited Myitsone Hydropower Station in Myanmar after the shutdown: Both China and Myanmar lost.

Myitsone hydropower station site

 

If conditions permit, it will supply 100% power to Myanmar. Is this robbing Myanmar of resources?

Among the reasons why some non-governmental organizations oppose the construction of Myitsone Hydropower Station, the clause of selling 90% of electricity to China has aroused nationalist sentiment in the hearts of Burmese people and catered to the western accusation that "China plundered Myanmar’s resources". Cheng Zhonghua told reporters that in fact, when the company inspected the feasibility of the Myitsone Hydropower Station project, it was most worried about the issue of power sales. If the power sales could not be solved, the project would not be economically feasible, and the investment would not be established.

The construction of Myitsone Hydropower Station was put forward by Myanmar as early as 1952, but it could not be implemented due to technical, financial and market problems. Since the 1960s and 1970s, many enterprises including Kansai Company of Japan have visited Myitsone successively, among which Japanese companies submitted the preliminary development plan of Myitsone to the First Ministry of Electric Power of Myanmar Government in 2002.

Although Myanmar is a country short of electricity, the current consumption of electricity in Myanmar is still in its infancy. According to the calculation, the installed capacity of Myitsone Power Station is 6 million kilowatts, and the annual power generation is three times that of Myanmar’s annual electricity consumption in 2011, which cannot be fully digested by Myanmar’s domestic market. According to the agreement signed between China and the Myanmar government, the Myanmar government will receive 10% of the free electricity from Myitsone Hydropower Station, and at the same time, it will give priority to power supply to Myanmar, waiting for the demand in the Myanmar market to increase. It is possible for the Myitsone Hydropower Station to transmit 100% electricity to Myanmar in the future. However, some non-governmental organizations do not understand this situation, and they exaggerate that "China plunders Myanmar’s resources" and incite public opinion.

People's Daily reporter visited Myitsone Hydropower Station in Myanmar after the shutdown: Both China and Myanmar lost.

Some people in Myanmar oppose China’s construction of Myitsone Hydropower Station.

China introduced the development situation comprehensively, objectively and truly.

At present, the Myanmar government is secretive about the Myitsone hydropower project, and government officials are basically reluctant to mention it in public. Wu Saimeng Rui, Minister of Electric Power and Industry of Kachin State, refused to express his position on the Myitsone Hydropower Project in an interview with People’s Daily. However, there is a hydropower planning map of Kachin State hanging next to Wu Sai Meng Rui’s desk. When introducing Kachin State’s hydropower resources to reporters, Wu Sai Meng Rui deliberately pointed out seven cascade power stations planned and built in the upper reaches of the Yi River on the map.

Wu Saimeng Rui emphasized that hydropower has a unique advantage compared with other electric power. "It is not only cheap, but also recognized as a clean energy source in the world. Kachin State has the richest hydropower resources in Myanmar, but the current utilization rate is only 2.2%. In addition, the lack of high-voltage transmission network in Kachin State is also a big problem." Wu Saimeng Rui said that Myanmar welcomes foreign investment, but believes that the rights and interests of foreign investment can only be guaranteed after peace is achieved in Myanmar.

China Power Investment Corporation has never given up its efforts to restart the Myitsone project. Not long ago, China Power Investment Corporation invited Wu Saimin, deputy speaker of Kachin State Parliament, to lead 21 Kachin State legislators and media representatives to inspect the Myitsone Hydropower Station project, and also invited many Myanmar media as well as international media such as Asia News Channel and BBC to interview the project site. China Power Investment Corporation also published a book "Questions and Answers on the Development of Yijiang Hydropower" in Chinese, Myanmar and English, so that the public can fully, objectively and truly understand the development of Yijiang Hydropower.

Domestic analysts in Myanmar generally believe that whether the new government can restart Myitsone Hydropower Project after the general election in 2015 depends largely on how China persuades the Myanmar government and local political forces to accept Myitsone Hydropower Project, which is a mutually beneficial project between China and Myanmar. At the end of the interview, Cheng Zhonghua solemnly told reporters: "We look forward to returning to work as soon as possible."

Medical imaging manufacturers benefit first from the introduction of 1.7 trillion central discount loans by the state.

  Recently, the state issued 1.7 trillion central discount loans, of which 200 billion flowed into the renewal of medical equipment, which sounded the "assembly number" of the new infrastructure of medical equipment. This has also injected a "shot in the arm" into the medical device industry in the deep collection vortex.

  After the good news was released, the A-share medical device sector rose sharply in recent days, with UIH Medical (688,271), Kaikai Medical (300,633), Mindray Medical (300,760), Candeley (603,987) and Xinmai Medical (688,016) leading the gains.

  Solve the financing problem of hospital equipment procurement

  Feng Jian, the head of a private hospital group in Zhejiang, told the First Financial Reporter that a local hospital under the group just happened to purchase medical equipment when the discount loan policy was issued, and soon received a phone call from the local bank and offered discount loans.

  "Because it is precisely to purchase these equipment, the benefits of exempting interest are immediate." Feng Jian told the First Financial Reporter, "For private hospitals that are still in a difficult period of operation, purchasing large-scale medical equipment is a big investment in infrastructure costs, and it is still of great significance to get the actual capital cost concessions."

  Li Bing, an investor in a private hospital in Shandong, told the First Financial Reporter that the loan interest rate within the support period of refinancing and financial discount policy (3 years) is not higher than 3.2% and not lower than 2.5% (financial discount level). If a hospital buys 20 million yuan of equipment, it will save 500,000 to 700,000 yuan in interest each year and 1 million to 1.5 million yuan in two years.

  "The direct benefit of the hospital purchasing equipment is to increase the competitiveness of the hospital. If the loan allows, there are still hospitals willing to purchase equipment, and our hospital will declare it. However, if some hospitals are in poor operating conditions, such as high debt ratio, and banks do not approve them, that is another matter. " Li Bing told the First Financial Reporter.

  He also reminded that the original intention of the discount loan policy is good, which can promote hospitals to improve the level of diagnosis and treatment, but for hospitals, they should also do what they can, especially private hospitals. "This policy provides a space for the hospital to operate. After all, it can get actual financial support. As a hospital, it should make full use of this policy. After all, it is necessary to increase investment and debt when purchasing equipment, and the money still needs to be paid back." Li Bing told the First Financial Reporter.

  Yi Zhu, executive director of Sullivan’s Greater China Medical Group, told the First Financial Reporter: "2022 is a difficult year for the real economy, and the situation of financing difficulties has intensified. It is urgent to introduce the discount loan policy to alleviate the problem of financing difficulties and expensive financing for enterprises."

  Yi Zhu believes that hospitals are an important part of social services and will be one of the beneficiaries of this policy. In addition to private hospitals, public hospitals also benefit obviously, because the funding channels of public hospitals are relatively simple, mainly relying on financial subsidies and loans. This policy can effectively solve the problem of insufficient funds in the development of hospitals, reduce the capital cost of hospitals, and promote the upgrading of hospital equipment to better serve the majority of patients.

  "Large-scale tertiary public hospitals are of course strong, and all kinds of medical equipment are complete. Because patients gather in the head hospital, these hospitals always have to purchase equipment regardless of whether they are subsidized or not." A medical system person told the First Financial Reporter, "So this discount loan policy may benefit more grassroots public hospitals with weak medical infrastructure."

  The relevant person in charge of a large tertiary hospital in Shanghai told the First Financial Reporter: "As we are the unit responsible for the budget of the Health and Health Commission, in the past, infrastructure construction and equipment investment needed to be purchased by ourselves. If it is really necessary to purchase equipment, we can consider loans. Through this discount loan policy, we can indeed buy some equipment."

  The deputy director of the Radiology Department of another large tertiary hospital in Shanghai told the First Financial Reporter: "Many hospitals have applied for procurement, and we are still evaluating it. After all, the cost of purchasing an advanced medical imaging equipment is very high."

  Some insiders also said that although some large tertiary hospitals are large in scale, their debts are also very serious, and they are very cautious about the decision to purchase equipment. Take Zhengda First Affiliated Hospital as an example. According to statistics, the balance of the hospital in 2021 was less than 1 billion yuan, accounting for less than 5% of the revenue.

  "Our hospital will tend to build joint laboratories with some enterprises, so that the equipment of enterprises can be put into the hospital for free, saving a lot of money." The person in charge of the scientific research department of a hospital in Shanghai told the First Financial Reporter, "For example, we are preparing to cooperate with a domestic medical imaging equipment giant company to build a laboratory."

  The director of the Radiology Department of a large tertiary hospital in Shanghai told the First Financial Reporter: "The key problem lies in the demand. The equipment is purchased according to the demand, and it is bought when there is demand, not because there is a discount policy, and there is no need to borrow money to buy it. It is unnecessary."

  Imaging equipment manufacturers benefit first.

  In Li Bing’s view, the most direct and first beneficiaries of the discount loan policy should be medical device manufacturers and distributors, not hospitals. "This means that the market of manufacturers has room for substantial growth." He told the first financial reporter.

  Other investors also believe that the medical device industry, which has been silent for a while, may be reborn because the new infrastructure of medical devices has been put on the agenda. "In the past, the market did not attract enough attention to the new infrastructure of medical devices." A medical device investor told the First Financial Reporter, "Now the discount loan policy has shaken this undercurrent market."

  Yi Zhu told the First Financial Reporter: "The policy limits the use direction of this loan to the purchase of medical equipment such as diagnosis and treatment, clinical examination, severe illness, rehabilitation and scientific research transformation. Correspondingly, it will mainly benefit the fields of imaging, IVD, monitoring and rehabilitation equipment."

  Multinational giants first "liked" the discount loan policy. GE Medical told the First Financial Reporter: "Recently, we are concerned about the decision of the Standing Committee of the People’s Republic of China to determine special refinancing and financial interest subsidies to support the upgrading of equipment in some areas, expand market demand and increase development potential, and the Health and Health Commission took the lead in issuing a notice to confirm the use of financial interest subsidies to upgrade and transform medical equipment. This has undoubtedly injected a shot in the arm into the medical and health field, which is good for the overall domestic medical equipment industry. "

  GE medical said that the implementation of a series of discount and loan combination boxing will be beneficial to the development of medical equipment manufacturing industry and accelerate the innovation iteration of enterprise equipment and products; On the other hand, it is also conducive to the overall development of medical equipment manufacturing industry, encouraging enterprises to expand production scale and improve production capacity and efficiency, which has a great impetus to the road of high-quality development of medical equipment in China.

  At present, GE Medical has developed, produced and put more than 100 products into the market in China, covering a series of innovative products such as 256-slice CT, 3.0T magnetic resonance, obstetrics and gynecology, heart, whole-body ultrasound and ventilator, anesthesia, monitoring and ECG.

  Some multinational medical device manufacturers also said that the favorable policies should be viewed more rationally. "It is still difficult to assess how much this policy will benefit our business, and we will have to wait until the final result comes out." The president of a European multinational medical imaging equipment company in China told the First Financial Reporter.

  "The overall policy of discount loans is favorable. After all, in the short term, it will help to promote hospitals in need to buy or replace equipment as soon as possible." A senior official in China, a large German intensive care equipment manufacturer, told the First Financial Reporter, "But we should also see clearly that these demands are only released in advance. After all, equipment is not a high-frequency procurement commodity, unlike consumables. Now I buy more, and I may buy less in the future."

  However, according to an internal document circulating in the industry, it seems unnecessary to worry about future demand reduction. "Some equipment may be purchased in advance, but with the increase in personnel and manpower investment in hospital equipment procurement, the ability to receive medical treatment will gradually increase, bringing new medical needs, which in turn will promote the hospital’s investment in new infrastructure." A summary of internal interviews with relevant departments wrote.

  "I think as a hospital, they are more inclined to purchase some medical instruments and imaging equipment with shorter return period, such as CT, MRI, color Doppler ultrasound, IVD, and monitors, because there are a large number of patients’ needs, and for equipment such as surgical robots and gene sequencers that are expensive and difficult to return to their original cost, the demand of hospitals may not be so urgent." Seimi Zhang, a senior person in the medical device industry, told the First Financial Reporter.

  Gu Xin, an executive of a multinational gene sequencing equipment manufacturer in China, told the First Financial Reporter that the types of equipment purchased by hospitals are closely related to clinical cognition. "At least at the present stage, the demand for using gene sequencing in clinical diagnosis is relatively small. This is because gene diagnosis is a relatively new discipline, and not many clinicians know this new technology. On the other hand, it is also related to cost. If gene diagnosis can be included in medical insurance in the future, the demand will increase significantly." Gu Xin told the First Financial Reporter.

  Demand for innovative technology and equipment to be released

  The first financial reporter learned that although some large tertiary hospitals are actively promoting the construction of research hospitals and strengthening their scientific research capabilities, the medical talent pool in emerging frontier technologies such as gene therapy is still in the early stage.

  "Some hospitals pay more attention to scientific research, and the dean himself is an academician. They will be more active in the early layout of these new technologies, but the awareness of more hospital leaders is still lacking. Coupled with the current economic challenges, the investment in non-essential equipment will be less active." Gu Xin told the First Financial Reporter.

  A deputy chief physician of the Department of Cardiology, a large tertiary hospital in Shanghai, told the First Financial Reporter that some genetic diagnosis techniques may be used in the field of structural heart disease, especially congenital heart disease, but they are rarely used as a whole, and their usefulness has not been fully revealed.

  However, the situation is also changing. With more and more scientific research proving the influence of genes on diseases, precise treatment driven by gene diagnosis will surely receive more attention in the future. "For example, structural heart disease, current research has found that the incidence of a considerable number of patients is related to heredity. With the promotion of related research, precise treatment will definitely become the future trend." Gu Xin said.

  In the eyes of the industry, this discount loan can not only release part of the clinical equipment demand, but also help accelerate the development of domestic medical equipment.

  "At present, it is in the historical opportunity period when the country vigorously supports domestic innovative medical device products. I think hospitals may get greater support and encouragement when purchasing domestic devices and equipment." Seimi Zhang, an insider, told the First Financial Reporter.

  UIH recently publicly responded to the new infrastructure of medical equipment on its WeChat WeChat official account. "We provide customized services for diversified scenarios for medical institutions at all levels for discount applications with tight time and difficult planning." UIH wrote. Since UIH went public at the end of August this year, its share price has risen steadily, and its current market value exceeds 160 billion yuan.

  In addition, with more and more domestic surgical robots approved for listing by NMPA in China, the market believes that the discount loan policy will also stimulate the demand for technical equipment in this emerging field. For example, Tumai, the first domestic four-arm laparoscopic surgery robot independently developed by minimally invasive medical care, was approved by NMPA not long ago.

  A domestic head surgery robot manufacturer has told the First Financial Reporter that since the release of the discount loan policy, the enthusiasm of hospitals for purchasing surgical robots is higher than in the past.

  Jiang Tengfei, senior consulting director of Sullivan’s medical team in Greater China, believes that in terms of surgical robots, China enterprises can combine the advantages of the local market and exert their innovative ability in integrating AI intelligence. "In recent years, in terms of professional surgical instruments, a number of domestic brands with independent intellectual property rights have emerged in the China market, such as endoscopic/orthopedic surgical robots. How these enterprises develop in the future is worthy of attention." Jiang Tengfei told the First Financial Reporter.

  "Now it seems that China’s centralized procurement policy will continue for a long time, which requires medical device companies to develop more innovative and core technologies that can be independently controlled, and serve the clinical unmet needs at a more competitive price." Seimi Zhang told the First Financial Reporter.

  In recent years, the state has also issued a series of policies to encourage domestic medical device enterprises to accelerate innovation and become bigger and stronger. Last month, the National Medical Insurance Bureau clearly stated in the Reply of the National Medical Insurance Bureau to Recommendation No.4955 of the Fifth Session of the 13th National People’s Congress that "innovative medical devices will not be included in centralized procurement for the time being", and a certain market should be set aside outside centralized procurement to provide space for innovative products to open up markets.

  However, in the field of domestic medical devices, there are still some problems in the industrial chain, such as duplication of low-end production capacity and waste of production resources, and there is still an objective gap with the world advanced level. Many products still need to be tested by the market. Enterprises need to further increase investment in R&D, achieve technological breakthroughs, gradually break through the core technical barriers of high-end equipment, and improve the localization rate of high-end medical device products. Take the high-end medical imaging products as an example. At present, the localization rate is less than 10%.

  Cui Xiaobo, medical managing director of Ipsos medical industry, a consulting company, told the First Financial Reporter: "At first, domestic factories were engaged in the production of some relatively low-end medical device products. In the past few years, with the independent innovation and research and development advocated by the state, some manufacturers also began to develop high-end medical device products, but the core components still rely on imported supply chains, such as tubes and detectors of CT equipment. The problem caused by this is that the procurement cost is high. When it does not reach a certain amount, the enterprise has no bargaining power, so it loses money year after year. "

  Cui Xiaobo said that although some local manufacturers of head medical devices are doing some independent research and development for some core components and referring to foreign enterprises, it is one thing to assemble medical devices, and it is another to use them well in clinical application. "Especially for the setting of some parameters, because international brands have a lot of overseas research and development or experience in other markets and then get it to the China market, I think there is still a certain gap in this part." He told the first financial reporter.

Interview with Yu-sheng Tian: If you can’t shoot "Ex 4", you must let go.

Become the first explosive movie in 2018.


Special feature of 1905 film network "Ex 3: Goodbye Ex", the first explosive movie in 2018! Since its release on December 29th, the film has been bringing surprises — — The series broke 500 million for the first time and 1 billion &hellip in the first week; … Now it has been released for 18 days, and "Former 3", which has won 1.76 billion yuan, has ranked fourth in the box office of domestic movies and is moving towards 2 billion yuan.

"Former 3" has ranked fourth at the box office of domestic movies.

 

"Previous 3" was released for half a month, and its stamina is still strong. Under the impact of Chinese and foreign films, last weekend (1.12-1.14), more than 100 million box offices were still firmly in the bag.

 

Recently, we also had the honor to interview Yu-sheng Tian, the director and screenwriter of the "predecessor" series, and chatted with him about the story behind the "predecessor". Yu-sheng Tian, born in 1980s, is like a cheerful big boy. From the moment he entered the studio, he talked about Kan Kan. For him, the interview was completely comfortable.

 

Filming is like playing with brothers. Han Geng and Ryan suffer when they are together as actresses.

 

From 2013 to 2015, and then to "Previous 3", Ryan runs through the trilogy of "Previous", while Han Geng missed the second one because of the schedule, and returned again in the final one. The three people who have cooperated for many times have become an "iron triangle", and filming together is more like playing with brothers.

Han Geng took the opportunity to "steal food" when filming a hot pot scene.

 

Yu-sheng Tian said that he and Han Geng had reached a tacit understanding that "I said a close-up and a flashback look, ok, too". As long as one sentence can immediately understand the director’s meaning, it is not only the improvement of Han Geng’s acting skills, but also the embodiment of tacit understanding with the director and the whole crew.

 

However, Han Geng, who played with Yu-sheng Tian, was also "tricky". At that time, the crew ate hot pot every day in Chengdu, but Han Geng’s next play asked him to keep fit and lose weight. "He always hides far away and eats that cabbage soup by himself, which is very miserable," Yu-sheng Tian said. As a result, when filming the scene of "Former 3" eating hot pot, "I think he is a little intentional, deliberately blocking a word or something, just one more, one more, and eat two more."

Han Geng and Ryan are a pair of he is my brother in the play.

 

In the play, there are good buddies with very different personalities. One of them is lovelorn and the other is lovelorn. Outside the play, Han Geng and Ryan have a very good relationship. "As long as they are both there, actresses suffer and are often teased and bullied." I don’t know whether Yu-sheng Tian’s revelation is a compliment or a loss to them.

 

There will be no fourth film in the "Ex" series, but there is no guarantee that there will be "Ex-wife"

 

Yu-sheng Tian, who claimed that she had never been in love before she went to college, felt that she lacked the experience of "predecessor". These three films had already hollowed out her body, so the "predecessor" series could only end there, and the rumor that the fourth film was shot because of the box office success of "predecessor 3" was shattered. Yu-sheng Tian said, "Han Geng told me that in a few years, you will get an ex-wife." Although it is a joke, who knows if an explosive IP was born in such a casual ridicule?

Yu-sheng Tian’s "Ex" series was inspired by a lovelorn partner.

 

Referring to the original intention of "Ex 3", Yu-sheng Tian recalled that the inspiration came from one of his lovelorn partners. Yu-sheng Tian, the partner who just broke up, asked him to go for a drink and told him about the ambiguous relationship between his girlfriend and his ex, so the topic of "ex" popped into Tian Yusheng’s mind. Later, my partner was dragged by Yu-sheng Tian to talk about creation and script, and thus the "predecessor" series came out.

 

It is no exaggeration to say that Yu-sheng Tian himself is a real "chatterbox", so it is not surprising that his films are full of witty remarks. Many classic lines in "Ex 3" come from Yu-sheng Tian’s private stock. He said that he has a small notebook dedicated to memorizing sentences. Every time he chats with friends (nonsense), funny sentences pop up in a flash of light, he will silently record them in the notebook. And "predecessor 3" used about one-third of the "inventory".

Han Geng dressed up as the supreme treasure in Ex 3.

 

It is worth mentioning that under the shell of comedy, Ex-3 abandoned the usual happy ending, and the hero and heroine failed to get back together again. Regarding the handling of the ending, Yu-sheng Tian said, "Don’t break up easily, but if you do, let it go". The core of the film is also about cherishing and thinking about love. As for being asked which line he thought was the most heartfelt, Yu-sheng Tian nominated Han Geng’s inner monologue when he dressed as the Supreme Treasure. "Only when Zi Xia leaves the Supreme Treasure forever will the Supreme Treasure grow into the Monkey King."

 

I don’t want to be a spokesperson for romantic comedies, but I want to make police, gangsters and war movies.

 

As a leader in the same period, Yu-sheng Tian thinks that the success of "Previous 3" is similar. In the movie market where fantasy movies are popular, the audience wants to see realistic movies that are close to life. The online exposure of many viewers crying in the cinema after watching "Former 3" for a long time also confirmed their strong resonance with the story of "Former 3".

 

Yu-sheng Tian’s "predecessor" series not only broke the curse of the sequel of the series, but also made better and better, which is not unrelated to his daily accumulation of materials and patient polishing of scripts.

Yu-sheng Tian wrote the screenplay for the first time.

 

Yu-sheng Tian, a screenwriter, made a movie script for the first time, and wrote "A Man on the Road", which was a success. Then, he directed the "predecessor" series of three films, which successfully made him among the 1.5 billion box office directors. Yu-sheng Tian seems to have been labeled as "comedy" since "A Man on a Embarrassed Road", but he himself has not positioned himself as a director of comedy films. "In fact, I like policemen, gangsters and wars very much, which are very bloody and passionate." Yu-sheng Tian confessed his "ambition" of making other films.

 

When talking about the plan for the next play, Yu-sheng Tian said that there is no plan at present, "it still depends on the story itself", and said that he would also consider his old partners Han Geng and Ryan in his new work. Let’s expect Yu-sheng Tian to create a new script after her personal experience of marriage, and look forward to the "Ex-wife" which may be reunited with the "iron triangle" sometime in the future.

How to break through China TV series in the era of "content is king"

  The annual meeting of Shanghai TV drama production and broadcasting held every spring is an important gathering of domestic TV drama industry after the year, which plays a certain role as a weather vane for the TV drama industry. Especially in the industrial forum, many elite guests from the industry jointly feel the pulse of China TV drama, and various dialogues and speeches have a far-reaching impact on the development of the industry.

  China’s TV drama industry is entering a new era in which content is king. Last year, a number of high-quality "hot dramas" and "big dramas" were just signals. The industrial forum held the day before yesterday was based on the theme of "A New Start of China TV Drama in the New Era", and invited many industry elites and company bosses who were active in the front line to discuss three major topics: "New Integration of Television Networks in the New Era", "Breakthrough and Innovation of Realistic Theme Creation in the New Era" and "Breakthrough and Innovation of Ancient Costume Theme Creation".

  Website and TV Station: From Game to Resonance

  In 2017, after experiencing multi-screen interaction, network-platform linkage and other modes, China TV drama industry appeared a lot of big dramas that were broadcast in the background or even on the internet alone. However, Chen Yuren, vice president of Shanghai Culture, Radio, Film and Television Group Co., Ltd., pointed out that "the real explosive dramas are all network-platform resonance", so he advocated that producers, traditional platforms and network platforms should "join hands" on the spot. If we can build products that are basically close to the common denominator, we can make its broadcast benefit the most.

  Chen Yuren’s words made all the guests agree very much. Regarding the integration of networks, Yang Weidong, the rotating president of Alibaba Culture and Entertainment Group and the president of Dayouku Business Group from the network platform, said: "The mentality between TV stations and network platforms may be the most critical basis for cooperation."

  After the topic of "mentality" was put forward, the producer also pointed out the topic of "posture". Hou Hongliang, the chairman of Noon Sunshine Film and Television Co., Ltd., said: "In order to win-win, everyone should consider each other as much as possible, including our content production. It will be difficult for all platforms to adjust the content production conditions to the highest level. This is not necessarily a virtuous circle for the whole industry. The gesture of cooperation is to make the other party satisfied and comfortable. "

  When the three parties can cooperate smoothly, the discussion on the broadcast mode becomes the top priority. In order to maximize the influence of TV series, Sun Zhonghuai, vice president of Tencent and CEO of Penguin Film and Television, said with his own experience: "Video websites and first-line TV prime files are broadcast simultaneously. At the same time, paying members of video websites have certain priority. We have basically tried and tested, and this model will not affect the ratings of TV stations, but also benefit the paying members of video websites. " In this regard, Wang Zhonglei, co-founder, vice chairman and CEO of Huayi Brothers Media Co., Ltd. agrees that this will be the mainstream model in the future: "Network broadcast, members give priority to it in advance, it must be a masterpiece."

  Process and result: respect the creative system and don’t expect "explosion"

  On the screen of China in 2017, the performance of realistic TV series is very eye-catching, and a series of realistic masterpieces, such as My First Half of Life and Bright Days of Life, have achieved fruitful results in terms of word of mouth and ratings. Therefore, the topic of the second forum was "Breakthrough and Innovation in the Creation of Realistic Themes in the New Era", and invited Chen Xiao, Huang Lan, Liu Liu, Li Xiao and Shen Yan, who are active in the field of realistic TV dramas, to participate.

  Chen Xiao, vice president of iQiyi, is optimistic about the frequent trend of "explosion" of realistic themes, and even predicts that "this recovery may continue until 2018 or even later". However, the directors, screenwriters and producers at the scene are quite calm. They said that they are focused on creation and it is difficult to predict whether their works will become "explosive". Shen Yan, director of My First Half Life, said, "Every play has its own life, I think ‘ Explosions ’ It is really something that can’t be met. " Producer Huang Lan pointed out with a burst of blood: "I hope that when I come up, I think I am an explosion, and often people like that will not succeed." Screenwriter Li Xiao also believes that the key to making a good TV series is to "like yourself and put your true feelings into it", and the result is unpredictable.

  The result of the work is hard to predict, and the creation of all the guests has its own system. The screenwriter Liu Liu said seriously that every work needs her to experience three or even five years of thinking and experience life: "You don’t have three or five years of infiltration, no in-depth communication, you don’t go into the souls of the characters, you are not familiar with their normal language system, and you can’t write such a play." Huang Lan also shared: "Without the investment of time, it is difficult to truly gain universal recognition in details and lines. This is the biggest difficulty."

  Huang Lan also said: "Although the investment is great, you get a high income, and you can get the evaluation of so many viewers within a wide broadcast range. That kind of happiness, I think, is a lifetime harvest and memory."

  Theme and Market: Broadening Dimensions and Avoiding Homogeneity

  Despite the rise of realistic themes, costume drama is still a magic weapon for the traffic and viewing of many platforms. Facing the implementation of new control policies, the creation and broadcasting of costume drama are also undergoing new adjustments, and the content of costume drama is also undergoing "variation". Ma Boyong, a screenwriter and writer, said: "In recent years, the creation of historical themes is obviously not limited to the struggle for political power. The themes are very wide, and even what kind of industries have a stage for costume dramas. I think from the general trend, costume drama can indeed be extended to a very broad dimension. For example, it is also a good attempt to adapt the costume TV series to the style of spy war. "

  In the writer Chang Jiang’s view, the theme expansion of such costume dramas is "the market forces everyone to produce something new and look good" and "because there are many costume dramas on the market, everyone is considering how to avoid homogenization". After the theme is expanded, the big coffees are also thinking about how to close the distance between the costume drama and the audience. Ding Hei, who created the series "Daqin Empire", said that although they wrote "imperial dreams", they focused on emotions, including family ties and friendship. "It is this kind of costume drama that brings closer communication with today’s audience." Fang Ying, vice president of Huacekerton, agrees: "This is the emotional communication between the audience and us, including people’s understanding of society and their experience, which will resonate more easily."

  One of the difficulties in the creation of ancient costume themes is the bridge between historical truth and artistic fiction. Ma Boyong said: "After all, historical dramas are not historical papers, and there will definitely be fiction, but we must respect historical logic. Many times, the audience thinks that this costume drama is not good-looking, not that it does not conform to history, but does not conform to historical logic. " Fang Ying also mentioned that some changes are inevitable. "We want to make the vision itself look better, so we will make some minor adjustments in colors and fabrics, which may not be reached by ancient people at that time, but the picture will look better."

  "Quality Festival" pays tribute to China TV series for 40 years

Sun Li, the heroine, won the honor of "Outstanding Quality Star of the Year (Female)". When taking the stage to receive the award, the host asked Sun Li to put his "crescent moon" and a "half moon" together, and this "half moon" must be a choice between Wu Pin and Shen Xing. The witty Sun Li finally decided to put the two "half moons" together and put on his own "crescent moon" to make the "flowers that year" perfect "full moon". The appearance of "Wu Pin" and "Shen Xing Shift" on the same stage also captured the audience’s attention.

Accompanied by music on the big screen, China TV dramas that have been popular for 40 years have been played. These four actors with many years of performance experience expressed their "most unforgettable experiences as actors" before singing. Wang Kai said that when filming "Educated Youth" in the northeast of MINUS 40 degrees, the crew used a blower to blow snow on them because of the need to create a snowstorm scene. After that, his fingers were frostbitten, and water dripped from his chin to form ice ballast. Through that role, he realized the value of courage.

High-profile! Will Trump and Burns "flag-waving" the world for this matter be more dangerous?

  CCTV News:"Carry the space army to the end!" A tweet from US President Trump on August 9 made the outside world once again focus on the militarization of space. Just a few hours before this tweet was sent out, the US government announced that it would form the sixth service of the US armed forces by 2020 — — Space army.

  High-profile vice president’s speech, the president pushed for the space army to "wave the flag and shout"

  Host of CBS USA: "The White House and the Pentagon took the first step towards establishing the sixth service of the US military and the space army. The Vice President delivered a speech and the Commander-in-Chief also tweeted ‘ Carry out the space army to the end ’ 。”

  Burns: The time has come to form a space army.

  On the morning of August 9, local time, US Vice President Burns came to the Pentagon. The purpose of his trip was to announce the specific plan and timetable for the formation of the space army in the United States.

  Us vice president burnsNow, in order to prepare for the next battlefield, it is time to write a new great chapter in the history of the American armed forces. The United States will summon the best and bravest fighters to shock and defeat the new generation of threats we face, and the time has come to form a space army. "

  On the same day, Burns officially announced that the United States will form a space army by 2020.

  What exactly is a space army? To put it simply, the establishment of the Space Force means that the American armed forces have an independent service again after more than 70 years.

  The last time the United States formed a new service was in 1947 when the Air Force was established.

  At present, the US armed forces include five major services — — That is, the army, navy, marine corps, coast guard and air force. Among them, the first four services were established in the 18th century, and the last new service was established in 1947 — — This year, the US Air Force was formally established. For many years after that, the concept of "the army in space" appeared more and more in Hollywood film and television works: for example, in 1997, the "mobile infantry" in starship troopers.

  Trump first publicly mentioned considering the establishment of a space army in March.

  Eleven years back, the "Space Marines" appeared in the work Alien 2 by the great director James Cameron. Further, george lucas’s "Star Wars" series came out, and the classic image "Storm Soldiers" was born. The U.S. government’s high-profile announcement of the formation of a space army is the biggest promoter of President Trump himself.

  US President Trump"Space, like land, sky and ocean, is a combat space. We may set up a space army as another independent service. We have an air force now and a space army in the future."

  Trump White House named the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to set up a space army.

  In March of this year, when Trump visited a military base in California, he first showed his willingness to form a space army in public. Just three months later, Trump asked Dunford, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, to start studying related matters at the White House.

  US President Trump: "Here, I ask the Department of Defense to immediately start the necessary work to form a space army as the sixth largest service of the US armed forces. This is great news. We will have both air force and space force, different services but equal status. This is extremely important, General Dunford. I would be honored if you could undertake this task. Where is General Dunford? General, let’s act! "

  Russian media: the formation of the space army in the United States has become a hot topic in the global network

  The great enthusiasm of the president of the United States for the space army seems to have infected netizens all over the world.

  Russian TV reporter today: "Trump’s formation of a space army has inspired the unlimited imagination of netizens. Many people joked that Trump will become ‘ Guardians of the Galaxy ’ A member, or will he train an army composed of power rangers or storm soldiers to emit lasers in the face of alien threats? "

  So, why did the United States choose to propose the formation of a space army now?

  Us vice president burns"The once peaceful and uncontested space is now crowded and hostile, and other countries are trying to disrupt the system deployed by the United States in space and challenge the absolute superiority of the United States."

  US media: The US military has the ability to hunt satellites by relying on more than 140 satellite opponents.

  CBS reported that at present, the US military operates about 140 satellites, whose functions range from providing communication signals to guiding weapons to attack targets, and it is increasingly dependent on space. On the other hand, the United States believes that its competitors have developed weapons that can kill satellites, enough to disable them.

  In fact, the US military now has a space command under the jurisdiction of the Air Force. Founded in 1982, the headquarters is located in Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado, with more than 30,000 personnel. Its main responsibilities are the launch of US military satellites and early warning of ballistic missiles. But obviously, in the Trump administration’s view, such a configuration is far from enough to ensure the superiority of the United States in space.

  Will the Space Force be operational in two years? According to the provisions of American law, the formation of an independent new service will eventually require the approval of Congress. Therefore, it is still unknown whether the Space Force can be formed before 2020 as Trump wishes. However, according to US media reports, many members of Congress believe that it is costly to set up a new service specifically for space, so they are opposed to the concept of space army.

  Todd Harrison, an American military expert"Even if Congress makes a decision today, it will take several years. First of all, Congress must decide how to operate. When Congress makes a decision, it needs to be implemented in detail. I think it will take at least five or even ten years to establish a new space force. "

  Will "Star Wars" really become a reality? Experts say that we can’t see such a scene in a short time.

  Todd Harrison, an American military expert: "War in space will not be like Star Wars, nothing ‘ Space Marine Corps ’ It won’t be like that. There will be no military personnel fighting in space. They are all remote-controlled and unmanned satellites. The space military projects in the United States have always been unmanned. The projects that some people in the United States have entered space are all civilian, and they are all carried out through NASA. "

  Will the world become more dangerous because of this? According to Russian TV today, in 2009, 2011 and 2014, the United States abstained or voted against the ban on militarization of space three times. Will the contradiction between the United States and Russia further intensify? According to the US Political News Network reported on the 7th, when meeting with Trump in Helsinki, Finland on July 16th, Russian President Vladimir Putin asked the United States not to deploy weapons in space. The US media believes that Putin’s face-to-face warning is a move against the United States to form a space army.

Crowding into the new traffic track, whose ambition has the released prisoners become "inspirational online celebrity"?

  The anchor Wang (a pseudonym) posted his "Release Certificate" on the cover of his circle of friends, which stated his household registration, the cause of the crime and the time of serving his sentence. I don’t know when I started searching for "released from prison" in Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker, and I saw many bloggers who said they were released from prison, sharing and creating with short videos or live broadcasts.

  A new traffic track has quietly appeared, and the released prisoners who operate personal accounts have jointly stepped on a new track of "The prodigal son turns back to inspire online celebrity".

  However, such an "inspirational online celebrity" also has many problems. Recently, the little red book platform account "Brother Tianlang" published its own "Release Certificate" and wrote "I will not accept charity from others … … Be reborn … … I hope everyone will pay attention to me and get the support of many netizens. But soon, some netizens discovered and exposed the crime of forced prostitution. The account will not be searched soon.

  Released prisoners act as anchors.

  What’s the chaos

  Someone’s past crimes were exposed and his account was closed.

  After the above-mentioned little red book "Brother Tianlang" was exposed for the crime of forced prostitution, netizens expressed that it was "unworthy to start over" and gained support and attention. They thought that "it is absurd and infuriating for such a person to be an inspirational online celebrity".

  At the same time, the anchor of "Did the boy cry tonight", who has an account in Weibo, described his tragic experience of finding a relative, saying that he had gone astray and entered a "social university" (that is, a prison), and gained a lot of sympathy. After attracting more than 120,000 fans on the Tik Tok, "Did the boy cry tonight" began to broadcast the goods live, selling sanitary napkins to female fans at an expensive price, but it was discovered and exposed that his crime was rape — — He once raped female victims under the age of 15 with a knife. After the news was exposed, the public was furious, and the public anger was hard to disappear. Netizens expressed "extreme anger" and "intolerable".

  As of press time, the reporter has been unable to search the above account on both platforms. However, if you search for "released from prison" on multiple short video platforms, there will be a large number of business accounts of released prisoners.

  Some people say that there is no income to "support the family"

  The live broadcast of the anchor Cheng (a pseudonym) often starts early and will not end until 2 am. Cheng told reporters that this is a job that pays off, and the other jobs he can find now are "income and return are not proportional".

  In fact, since a fan told Wang in the live broadcast that the identity of a released prisoner of a Tik Tok account anchor was false and the prodigal son turned back to be his dummy, Wang posted his own Release Certificate.

  The anchor Wang was sentenced for infringing citizens’ personal information. He told reporters that he made a video account because he didn’t spit it out. "One is to vent the depression in my heart, and the other is to hope that others can abide by the law after seeing my things. This is my original intention. Life in prison is really too difficult. “

  Asked if the live broadcast of goods in the account has the purpose of making money, Wang replied: "I don’t have income now. Fans told me that I can hang a yellow car and others can buy things. I certainly don’t exclude the opportunity to make money. Just hang up. But I didn’t explain the goods for this. I don’t even have those goods. "

  Chengmou told reporters that the business accounts are all "supporting the family", and its live reward and delivery income is limited and unstable, but "when it is good, it is higher than the average income of our county".

  After he got out of prison, he lacked skills and found it hard to find a job.

  Wang told reporters that after he was released from prison, he couldn’t find a good job like opening a car, sending a courier, and sending a takeaway.

  Cheng, who is also the anchor of "released from prison", told reporters that most of the released prisoners have low academic qualifications and lack of skills. When they are rejected by professions such as online car drivers, the ideal place to go is a small enterprise that does not need to provide proof of no criminal record.

  Both Wang and Cheng, the anchor of "released from prison", said that they did not sign a company. Cheng told reporters that he once briefly joined the "trade union" — — An organization that helps to plan and push the flow needs to be divided into about 30%. "But my type is too unpopular. They don’t know a lot of content and can’t help. It didn’t take long for me to retire."

  Cheng said that after nearly 10 years of serving his sentence, he did not use the status of being released from prison, but because it was his only source of creation and content. In addition to sharing as a released prisoner, Cheng also tried to operate family-related content, but the feedback was flat. On January 12, 2023, Cheng posted a new video on his account, saying that although operating a video account brought a certain income, Cheng still hoped to find another job after the year. If the work was not smooth, he would concentrate on making an account.

  Who is paying attention to them?

  The reporter watched the live broadcast and participated in the fan group chat. It was found that in the live broadcast room of bloggers released from prison, a large number of prisoners’ families asked questions, interacted with the anchor and rewarded them. They had many puzzles that could not be solved by other channels, such as how much to pay the prisoners and what kind of clothes they needed.

  The anchor Chengmou worked as a "younger brother" in a casino and was imprisoned for more than 9 years for economic crimes. A follower asked Cheng: "(relatives and friends who are serving sentences) always said that I should not go, which is troublesome. Should I go?" Chengmou replied: "If you can go, then you are afraid that you will toss, spend money, and bother. I definitely hope that you will go to see him."

  argue

  Regardless of fairness or not, just talking about social influence, released prisoners are likely to become more serious criminals and go to extremes because they can’t live. The society should be tolerant of such criminals.

  Internet marketers are now fully trained and awarded relevant qualifications, and they need training and certificates in the future. If people with criminal records are not allowed to enter this industry, it will play an important role in the transmission and protection of user values. If there is a MCN company that uses this as a traffic outlet and uses "released from prison" as a traffic to bring goods, the values are wrong.

  Can ex-prisoners be "inspirational online celebrity"?

  Can ex-prisoners be "inspirational online celebrity"? In this regard, different experts have different opinions.

  Chen Jiawei, a lawyer from Beijing Dayu Law Firm, said that, regardless of fairness or not, only the social impact, released prisoners are likely to become more serious criminals and go to extremes because they can’t live, and society should be tolerant of such criminals.

  Zhu Wei, deputy director of the Communication Law Research Center of China University of Political Science and Law, told reporters that anchor is a social image appearing in the public sphere, which represents not only a profession, but also a special profession that needs fans and people to perform externally.

  In April 2022, the Network Audiovisual Program Management Department of the State Administration of Radio and Television and the Publishing Bureau of the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee issued the Notice on Strengthening the Management of Live Games on the Network Audiovisual Program Platform. The notice mentioned that for some time, problems such as chaos in webcasting and teenagers’ addiction to games have aroused widespread concern in society, and it is urgent to take effective measures to strictly regulate them. The notice requires that it is strictly forbidden for people who violate the law and lose their morality to use the live broadcast to make a sound. Webcast platform should strictly control the selection of anchors and guests, and adhere to political literacy, moral conduct, artistic level and social evaluation as the selection criteria. Resolutely do not use those who have lost their morality and decency because of their incorrect political stance, violation of laws and regulations, and violation of public order and good customs.

  Zhu Wei said, "Now, some public figures, such as celebrities who evade taxes and have problems of personal morality, should be banned, so how can this happen to online celebrity? Still have to draw the bottom line. "

  On July 6th, 2020, Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the State Administration of Market Supervision and the National Bureau of Statistics jointly released 11 new occupations, among which the job of "live salesman" under the Internet marketer became the new national occupation this time, and it was included in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) Occupational Classification Ceremony, which attracted attention.

  "Internet marketers are now fully training and issuing relevant qualifications, and they need training and certificates in the future. If people with criminal records are not allowed to enter this industry, it will play an important role in the transmission and protection of user values. If a MCN company uses this as the flow port, use ‘ Released from prison ’ Doing traffic to bring goods, values ? ? are wrong. " Zhu Wei said this.

  Lawyer Deng Qianqiu of Beijing Zhongwen Law Firm said that the principle of "public order and good customs" may be the reason for determining the invalidity of rewarding and giving red envelopes just because the relevant personnel give red envelopes and rewards with the label of "released from prison", but it needs to be clarified by concrete and mature judicial practice, and no relevant precedent has been seen yet.

  Chen Jiawei, a lawyer, suggested that in the above-mentioned two cases that caused netizens’ anger, the released prisoners were forced prostitution, rape and other crimes that were not tolerated by society, with specific victims and real injuries.

  Lawyer Chen Jiawei said that if the released rapist exposes the victim’s personal information or other remarks and behaviors that damage the victim’s reputation in the live broadcast, the victim can demand compensation and stop the infringement through civil litigation, and if a company plans to operate, it can be required to bear joint and several liabilities. If there are other acts that seriously insult the victim and degrade the victim’s personality from the media and live broadcast, the victim can file a criminal lawsuit for "insulting crime".

  "For the crime of rape, the penalty is not deprived of political rights. However, if the crime of insulting is committed again, the penalty for insulting is an additional penalty that can be sentenced to deprivation of political rights. Then, after the release of the sentence, the offender has no freedom of speech within the period of the additional penalty. "

  Internet audit industry insiders:

  The use of criminal facts for speculation and consumption is strictly prohibited by the platform, such as wearing prison clothes for live broadcast, explaining prison content information, and telling the criminal process, which are all covered by the rules of the platform.

  Expert: Live broadcasters need to pay attention to value orientation.

  Zhu Wei told reporters, "But now there are dozens of occupations that people with criminal records are really not allowed to engage in. This is also the law. There is no clear legal provision for live broadcast-related industries, but value orientation is emphasized. On the issue of guidance, if the release from prison is used as a flow port to attract everyone, this is definitely a problem. "

  The reporter’s search found that civil servants, judges, prosecutors, court clerks, people’s bank clerks, journalists, school bus drivers and other occupations are not allowed to engage in all crimes for life. The professions such as direct seller, tour guide, taxi driver, and online booking taxi driver are not allowed to engage in specific crimes (penalties) for life.

  An Internet censorship insider revealed to reporters that the use of criminal facts for speculation and consumption is strictly prohibited by the platform, such as wearing prison clothes for live broadcast, explaining prison content information, and telling the criminal process, which are all covered by the rules of the platform.
