The latest World Economic Outlook released by IMF shows that the global economic recovery still faces persistent challenges.

  The International Monetary Fund (IMF) recently released the latest World Economic Outlook, which predicts that the global economy will grow by 3% in 2023, 0.2 percentage points higher than the forecast in April this year, but still lower than the historical annual average of 3.8% (from 2000 to 2019). The IMF said that the pace of global economic recovery is slowing down, and the gap between various economic fields and regions is widening. Some major economies are not expected to bottom out before the second half of 2023, and the world economy will still face lasting challenges.

  "There are more and more signs that global economic activities are losing momentum." Pierre, chief economist of IMF — Olivier Gourinchas said at the press conference that although some adverse risks have eased, the risks facing the global economy are still on the downside. These risks include that interest rate hikes adopted by central banks to fight inflation continue to drag down economic activities, and the core inflation rate excluding energy and food prices is still far above the central bank’s target.

  The growth rate of developed economies slowed down.

  The slowdown in the growth rate of developed economies continues to be the main reason for the decline in global economic growth, which is mainly due to the weak manufacturing industry and other factors that offset the pulling effect of strong service industry activities. The IMF predicts that the growth rate of developed economies will drop from 2.7% in 2022 to 1.5% in 2023, and the economic growth rate of about 93% developed economies will slow down in 2023. In 2024, the growth rate of developed economies is expected to further drop to 1.4%.

  Specifically, the IMF predicts that the economic growth rate of the United States will slow down from 2.1% in 2022 to 1.8% in 2023, and then further slow down to 1% in 2024. Due to the strong consumption growth in the first quarter of this year, compared with the previous forecast in April, the growth forecast of the United States in 2023 was raised by 0.2 percentage points. However, as the extra savings accumulated by consumers during the COVID-19 epidemic are decreasing, and the Federal Reserve may raise interest rates further, this consumption growth momentum will not continue.

  The economic growth rate of the euro zone is expected to drop from 3.5% in 2022 to 0.9% in 2023, and then rise to 1.5% in 2024. This forecast remains basically the same as before, but the composition of economic growth in 2023 has undergone new changes. Among them, due to the strong growth of service industry and tourism, Italy’s economic growth rate was raised by 0.4 percentage points to 1.1%. Spain was raised by 1.0 percentage points to 2.5%. However, in the first quarter of 2023, Germany showed signs of weak manufacturing activity and economic contraction, which reduced its economic growth rate by 0.2 percentage points to -0.3%.

  In addition, the IMF predicts that the British economy will grow by 0.4% and 1% respectively this year and next; Japan’s economy will grow by 1.4% and 1% respectively this year and next.

  In contrast, the economic growth prospects of emerging markets and developing economies are basically stable in 2023 and 2024, and their economic growth rates are expected to reach 4.0% and 4.1% respectively. However, there are significant differences among regions, among which the economic growth rate of emerging markets and developing economies in Asia is expected to rise to 5.3% in 2023.

  The IMF maintained its forecast for China’s economic growth, and predicted that China’s economy would grow by 5.2% and 4.5% this year and next. In this regard, Gita Gopinath, the first vice-president of IMF, said that the developed economies are generally weak in growth this year, while the emerging markets and developing economies are expected to achieve faster growth, among which China plays a very important role. In Gopinath’s view, although China’s economy is currently facing adverse effects such as declining external demand and tightening monetary policies in some major economies, China has a large space for relevant economic policies, which can inject new momentum into economic growth through coordinated efforts of fiscal and monetary policies.

  Core inflation has declined slowly.

  Due to the drop in energy prices, the overall inflation rate of most economies has declined in recent months, but the downward rate of core inflation is slower than the overall inflation, which is still far higher than the target of most central banks and more lasting than expected. According to the IMF’s forecast, with the tightening of monetary policy and the fall of international commodity prices, it is expected that the average annual overall inflation rate of about three-quarters of the world’s economies will decline this year. The global inflation rate will drop from 8.7% (annual average) in 2022 to 6.8% in 2023, and further drop to 5.2% in 2024, but it is still higher than the level of about 3.5% before the epidemic (2017-2019).

  The decline of core inflation rate is even slower. The global core inflation rate is expected to drop from 6.5% in 2022 to 6.0% in 2023 and 4.7% in 2024. Take the euro zone as an example. According to Eurostat data, the harmonized consumer price index (HICP) in the euro zone increased by 5.5% in June. From the perspective of sub-items, although energy prices continued to decline, the prices of other sub-items all increased in different degrees. Among them, the prices of food, tobacco and alcohol increased by 11.7% year-on-year, the prices of non-energy industrial products increased by 5.5%, and the prices of services increased by 5.4%. Excluding volatile food and energy prices, the core HICP of the euro zone rose by 5.4% in June compared with the same period of last year, which shows that the core inflation rate of the euro zone is still at a high level, and this data is unlikely to prevent the European Central Bank from raising interest rates by 25 basis points at its meeting in July.

  Overall, among the economies that implement the inflation targeting system, the inflation rate of 96% will continue to be higher than the target in 2023, and the inflation rate of 89% will be higher than the target in 2024.

  The IMF warned that extreme weather conditions such as high temperature have frequently occurred in the world recently, and the El Niñ o phenomenon may make global warming more extreme, aggravate drought and push up commodity prices. In addition, if the Ukrainian crisis intensifies, it will further push up the prices of grain, fuel and fertilizer. If there are more shocks, inflation may remain high or even rise, thus triggering further tightening of monetary policy. If the market adjusts as the central bank tightens its policies further, the turmoil in the financial sector may reappear.

  Downside risks still exist.

  The report believes that the multiple risks facing the global economy will keep the possibility of downside high.

  First, financial markets may re-price. Since April, the financial market has raised its expectation of monetary policy tightening, but it still expects that the degree of policy tightening will be smaller than the signal sent by policymakers. This increases the risk that unfavorable inflation data will lead to a sudden rise in interest rate expectations and a fall in asset prices, and may further tighten the financial environment, putting pressure on banks and non-bank financial institutions whose balance sheets are extremely vulnerable to interest rate risks.

  Second, the debt dilemma may intensify. Since the banking crisis broke out in the United States in March 2023, the global financial environment has generally relaxed, but the borrowing costs of emerging markets and developing economies remain high, reducing their fiscal space for priority spending and increasing the risk of getting into debt trouble.

  In addition, in view of geopolitical tensions such as the Ukrainian crisis, global economic fragmentation remains another major risk, especially for developing economies. This may lead to more restrictions on trade, especially in the cross-border movement of key minerals, capital, technology and workers. At the same time, it may aggravate the fluctuation of commodity prices and hinder multilateral cooperation among countries.

  Therefore, the IMF said that central banks should continue to focus on fighting inflation and strengthening financial supervision and risk monitoring. If there is further financial shortage, countries should provide liquidity quickly. In addition, the IMF suggested that countries should establish financial buffers to cope with further shocks and ensure support for the most vulnerable groups.

Yantai baby seal was named "Little Lucky" and was initially judged to be a wild seal.

    Recently, a seal came to the East Fort Seal Bay in Zhifu District, Yantai City, Shandong Province, which aroused widespread concern among citizens and netizens. Netizens named the seal "Little Lucky". On April 26th, Qilu contacted many parties to answer your questions.

    The relevant staff of Zhifu District Marine Development and Fisheries Bureau introduced that on April 17, the bureau received a report that the staff of East Fort Seal Bay found a western Pacific spotted seal and immediately arranged personnel to go to the scene to check and dispose of it, and reported the relevant situation to the Municipal Bureau.

    According to the on-site observation of the staff, it is judged that the seal is about 4 -8 years old, healthy and can eat normally, and the lens in the right eye is turbid, which may have vision problems. However, due to the large number of reefs in the current sea area, it is easy to cause accidental injuries by rushing to provide medical assistance to the seal. At present, the seal is fed daily by the keepers of the East Fort Seal Bay and its physical condition is observed.

    In the next step, Zhifu District Marine Development and Fisheries Bureau will continue to pay attention to the health status of this seal, and once its vital signs are found to be declining, it will cooperate with provincial and municipal experts to take further rescue measures.

    Where do seals come from? A professional in the field of marine fisheries analyzed that the statement of "sneaking out of the aquarium" was not reliable, because all the seals in the aquarium were numbered, and no numbering and positioning equipment was found on this seal. "Although the seal is close to the staff of the East Fort Seal Bay who first discovered it, it is understood that the staff initially fed by throwing food at a distance. Seals are very smart, and their IQ is equivalent to that of a five-year-old child. With these days of getting along, it is not uncommon to get closer to people. "

    He further analyzed that the main distribution range of spotted seals in the western Pacific Ocean includes the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea in China, and Yantai fishermen often see seals when they go out to sea, so the preliminary judgment should be that they are wild seals from the sea.

    On social media, many netizens joked that "seals can be’ collected’ into Seal Bay". In this regard, the professional believes that it is much better to leave it in the wild than in the artificial environment. First of all, if wild seals are "collected" into Seal Bay, the mortality rate is very high, and it is easy to scare them. Once the seals are frightened and enter a strange environment, they will refuse to eat, which will do great harm to their health. Secondly, this seal is an adult, not as receptive as a young seal, and it is difficult to get used to the environment of artificial captivity. In addition, if the seals in Seal Bay find strange seals joining in, they will also reject them. Therefore, at present, the living condition of this seal is the best.

    Regarding the future whereabouts of the seal, the insider said, "It should not stay here all the time. In the future, it may meet a group of spotted seals swimming nearby and then leave with the big troops."

    The staff of the East Fort Seal Bay said, "Netizens gave the seal a name called’ Little Lucky’. Now, many people have come to see this seal, some have fed it themselves, and some have taken pictures of it with’ long guns and short guns’. If it doesn’t leave during the May 1 holiday, it is likely to attract tourists to punch in here, and then it will really become a’ online celebrity’ seal. " 

"Beauty and the Beast" released 3D special effects to help upgrade the classic romantic legend

Beauty and the beast, produced and produced by Disney Pictures, was released nationwide on the 17th. This world-famous classic of film history is in a state of nirvana, offering a romantic, intoxicating and beautiful 3D audio-visual feast, and inviting the new generation of idol superstars Emma Watson and Dan Stevens to reproduce the immortal legend of true love that eulogizes the beauty of the soul. On the occasion of this weekend in white day, the most unmissable date movie romance of 2017 strikes.

 

The classic of film history, Huacai rebirth, romantic new ideas, two-pronged approach

 

"Beauty and the Beast" was originally a classic love fairy tale. It tells the story that Belle, a beautiful woman, was imprisoned instead of her father who angered the beast, but she found that the beast was kind and noble in her heart in the morning and evening. In the end, true love overcame the spell, and all’s well that ends well. Praise for the beauty of the soul that transcends secular prejudice has made the fairy tale Beauty and the Beast last for hundreds of years.

 

In 1991, Disney Pictures put it on the big screen in the form of animation, which achieved unprecedented success. It not only won the Golden Globe Award for Best Film, but also set a precedent and became the first animated film nominated for the Oscar for Best Film — — There is no doubt about the status of classics, and legends are more deeply rooted in people’s hearts.

 

In 2017, Disney Pictures launched a live-action version of Beauty and the Beast, integrating this classic story into the latest trend of the 21st century, and completely rewriting the story branch, making an epoch-making innovative interpretation, striving to revitalize the legend and achieve a romantic classic belonging to a new generation of audiences. On March 17th, when white day weekend comes, this annual romantic masterpiece is worthy of being intoxicated in the cinema.

 

3D special effects reach the peak, investing huge sums of money to dream beautifully

 

The animated version of Beauty and the Beast was only a 2D animation, which represented the peak level of animation technology at that time. A quarter of a century later, technology has developed by leaps and bounds, and Disney has repeatedly polished its technical effects. This time, in addition to the 2D version, the live-action version of Beauty and the Beast has also been launched with a stunning 3D version, leading the audience to wander around the French town or the Beast Castle and feel the thrill of true love. The immersive 3D special effects can make the female audience dream of a princess, feel the warmth and romance of dancing with wild animals in the gorgeous palace hall, and make the fairy tale world that originally existed only in imagination within reach.

 

Complementing the dazzling 3D effect is the exquisite film texture and colorful scenes of Disney Pictures. From the old castle Yuan Ye and the palace ball to the embroidered carpet decoration, it is not only magnificent, but also delicate and beautiful. Under the care of the world’s top special effects team, the magic scene of the film is amazing, and the servants who are transformed into furniture and furnishings by magic curse can make the most critical "detail control" amazing. After the accumulation of experience in the Oscar-level gold medal for best special effects, Disney artists have pushed the audio-visual feast of Beauty and the Beast to a new height.

 

Behind the scenes, Starlight Glimmer’s youth idols join forces with powerful superstars.

 

The lineup of Beauty and the Beast is as luxurious as the texture of the film. With emma watson, Hermione’s worldwide fame in Harry Potter, leading the heroine "Belle", the identity of high flyers, an Ivy League school, is in perfect harmony with the intellectual beauty of the role; The "Beast" is deeply interpreted by the dream lover, "big cousin" Dan Stevens; The villain "gaston" is played by Luke Evans, whose archer Bud in The Hobbit 3 is a household name. The supporting cast of the film also plays an important role. Many acting stars including Ewan McGregor, Ian McKellen, Emma Thompson and Stanley Tucci are willing to be green leaves to protect the quality of the film.

 

Bill Condon, the director who is in charge of the overall situation of Beauty and the Beast, is also brilliant. The Dreamcatcher he directed once won an Oscar. His ability to control song and dance scenes and delicate handling of emotional interaction complement the demand of Beauty and the Beast, and the quality of the film is expected.

 

Classic Melody Overturns Memory Gold Medal, Rebuilds a New Movement by the Team

 

Musical elements have always been a great contributor to the success of the animated version of Beauty and the Beast, winning two Oscar statuettes for the film, the best score and the best original song. The animated version of the soundtrack, alan menken, once again joined the live-action version, and the classic melody merged with new creation, which is bound to recreate the heart movement.

 

The theme song of the film "Beauty and the Beast" was sung by Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson, the love song diva, with deep feelings and lingering sound, and became a classic sung around the world, which is still familiar to us today. This year, the live-action version of Beauty and the Beast appeared in Nirvana, and the classic theme song was reborn — — The new English version was jointly presented by the popular singer "Sister A" Ariana Grande and "Legendary Brother" john stephens, while the Chinese version was performed by Chinese music diva Hebe (Hebe Tien) and popular singer Jing Bo Ran.

Premiere feedback, good reputation, record-breaking pre-sale in North America

 

The popularity of the live-action version of Beauty and the Beast has always been high. According to the statistics of Fandango, the largest online ticketing platform in North America in early March, the pre-sale results of the film in North America have broken the previous record of family fun movies, and even surpassed such superhero movies, which shows the enthusiasm of the audience. According to an authoritative industry survey in Hollywood, Beauty and the Beast is expected to earn more than $100 million in the first weekend of its release in North America, making it the biggest box office bomb in the spring of 2017.

 

The film’s reputation is also remarkable. After the North American premiere, the media praised it one after another. Time magazine praised: "There is no doubt that the live-action version of Beauty and the Beast has surpassed the original animation in 1991; Although the director borrowed more or less from the original plot, this live-action version shines with its own brilliant brilliance. USA Today praised: "Beauty and the Beast perfectly combines visual wonders and exquisite scenes, and the story is even better than the original. Both original fans and contemporary fans will fall in love with this film." Entertainment Weekly praised the heroine emma watson: "Bright smile, deer-like eyes and faint freckles on the nose — — Emma has the innocence and wisdom that perfectly fits with Belle, and she plays the classic heroine of Disney. The Times also sent praise: "Gorgeous and invincible, infinite magic, boundless joy! The live-action version of Beauty and the Beast will bring you the most unforgettable viewing experience in 2017.


Today’s Film Review | Is there a threshold for Oppenheimer? It is enough to read this article.


Special feature of 1905 film network On August 30th, the director’s new film was released in mainland China, which is Nolan’s first biopic.



Oppenheimer’s box office exceeded 100 million in three days, and by 17:00 on September 5th, Oppenheimer had included 246 million box office.



As the director of films with great international influence, Nolan returned to the screen with his new work Oppenheimer, and had already gained infinite expectations before the screening. After the release, Oppenheimer lived up to expectations, and his reputation rose all the way. The score of Douban rose from 8.6 to 8.9.



Oppenheimer, theoretical physicist, head of Manhattan project research, is known as the "father of atomic bomb".



In the three-hour story in Oppenheimer, Nolan told us about Oppenheimer’s development of the atomic bomb during World War II, and also brought the unfair hearing that Oppenheimer faced to the screen after changing the course of human history.



In the story that the audience is so familiar with, how does Nolan, a director who is famous for his "real shooting", show the abstract landscape of the physical world with a film IMAX camera, and what kind of film art does he use to show the life of legendary physicist Oppenheimer?


Physics and art

Seek the balance between accuracy and freedom


If art creates romance in freedom, physics seeks romance in an accurate framework. Such a pair of seemingly contradictory words merged into Oppenheimer in Nolan’s lens.



Nolan’s films are always connected with science, such as Interstellar’s transmutation reference to Einstein’s twin paradox in special relativity and the accurate construction of multidimensional space in Inception.



However, as a biographical film recording the life of a physicist, seeking the balance between accuracy and artistry has become a very difficult but extremely important key point in Oppenheimer’s creation.



In order to better create a real era for the audience, Nolan and his art production team spent several years carefully studying the historical archives of that year, watching documentaries and scrutinizing all the details. And in order to achieve the picture effect of "real shooting" of the atomic bomb explosion, Nolan and the team conducted many experiments, simulated the real explosion scene through different kinds of explosives combinations, and combined the film with the real world texture through superb photography technology to create the "atomic bomb explosion" scene with Nolan’s characteristics.


But the figuration of art can’t fully show the abstraction of physics. Although Nolan and his team have highly restored the physical beauty in the micro-world, they are still different from the accurate real world in scenes such as releasing shock waves after nuclear explosions.



In this discrepancy, Nolan thinks that he is always exploring how to describe it in the language of movies on the big screen, and how to influence the way people receive information, and rebuild the movie world seen by the audience. Accuracy is truth, while freedom is mixed with magic, and drama always dances on the balance between truth and magic.


Subjectivity and objectivity

Defining the boundary between scientific research and morality


Due to the limited duration, the film selected the most dramatic experience of Oppenheimer’s life for interpretation, and the audience followed the star scientist’s perspective to the peak of achievement, and then fell to the altar.



The original biography of Oppenheimer reveals a living person for us. He was once put on the altar, but his body is still mortal. "He is ambitious and insecure, he is brilliant and naive, he is decisive and fearful, he is tenacious and indifferent and full of confusion." He is a great man and an ordinary man. You will see an Oppenheimer who is full of ambition and selfish desires and whose conscience is tortured and pulled.



Like the novel, the film does not blindly deify the great man, but unfolds the ups and downs of Mr. Oppenheimer’s life for us through an objective and rational perspective. He is strong, persistent and forbearing. Although he has retreated, he is even a little timid, but this is the real Oppenheimer.



In Christopher Nolan’s mind, the stage of script creation is the most difficult. Nolan said: "Because I am not making a documentary, but making a dramatic interpretation of a story." Nolan wrote the script in the first person for the first time, which facilitated the audience to enter Oppenheimer’s heart and faced an irreconcilable moral dilemma with him.



The most intuitive is the conversion between black and white and color pictures, as well as the nonlinear narrative structure. Nolan not only shows the characters’ determination, charm and willpower in a large number of scenes and bridges, but also does not shy away from the characters’ personality defects, desires and inner struggles. This should be the result of the unification between Nolan’s observation of real life history and film types, programs, narrative formulas and fictional techniques.


Take the contrast between black and white and color, black and white is the objective statement of Oppenheimer from the perspective of others, while the color picture is Oppenheimer’s inner self-analysis.



The film began with an internal hearing about Oppenheimer in 1954, that is, the American Atomic Energy Association decided whether Oppenheimer still had the "safety qualification" to continue to participate in nuclear work, which can be simply understood as "political review". The background of this conference is that the United States launched a persecutive "political investigation" on a large number of key personnel in the 1950s due to the cold war with the Soviet Union and under the influence of domestic McCarthyism, which resulted in many unfair results.


This part is colorful in the film, and there is a subtitle called "Fission", which is the basic principle of making atomic bombs. It implies that Oppenheimer’s life achievements and his life experiences, like nuclear fission, are a chain reaction of constant collision until nuclear explosion.



After that, the film soon showed another scene in black and white, with the subtitle "Fusion". Nuclear fusion is the basic principle of making hydrogen bombs. The U.S. successfully tested the hydrogen bomb in the early 1950s, which further aggravated the armament upgrade in the Cold War era, and also showed that Oppenheimer’s position in nuclear science and technology research began to become dispensable. Oppenheimer’s depression in the second half of his life after the hearing was basically the result of the change of scientific research goals after the political line dominated.



The protagonist of the black-and-white scene is Lewis Strauss, president of the American Atomic Energy Association. Simply put, he can be regarded as the villain in the story. When Oppenheimer’s popularity was in full swing, the "father of atomic bomb" was excluded from the follow-up study of atomic energy because of the harm of villains.


From the perspective of black-and-white pictures, Lewis Strauss’s comments on Oppenheimer’s career also represent a "more objective narrative position". If the story of "fission" belongs to the growth of Oppenheimer, Prometheus who stole fire, then the story of "fusion" represents a more complicated evaluation for later generations. After all, it is hard to say that Oppenheimer has no moral responsibility for eventually promoting the birth of weapons of mass destruction. We should know that big men like Einstein and Bohr deliberately stayed away from the research process of the atomic bomb. It can be said that Oppenheimer, as the leader of the atomic bomb, had complex motives for longing for glory in addition to the patriotic factors of dying in World War II.



Nolan tries to balance the image of "hero" through the narrative clue of Lewis Strauss and present more controversial characters in the biographical film. The interweaving of subjective and objective clues constitutes the overall development of the film.



Compared with movies, real life is not black and white, and it is a more real normal life that characters grope and advance in the gray area.


History and future

Looking for the end of creation and destruction


When Oppenheimer read the Bhagavad-gita in Sanskrit to his new girlfriend:


"Now I am dead and the destroyer of all the worlds."


What’s he thinking?



A large number of complex background texts are intertwined in the film, which contains many contents of history, physics, sociology and psychoanalysis. If you can learn more knowledge points, you can understand many things that Nolan wants to express. Otherwise, the film will only become a so-called idle chat between characters, and become boring.


In the original biography of Oppenheimer, the author describes Oppenheimer’s inner anxiety after the Hiroshima and Nagasaki events through a lot of profiles, and he seems to realize that he has opened Pandora’s box to some extent. Only three days after the American victory, Oppenheimer told the president that the United States had no defense against these new weapons.



Looking back at the original intention of developing the atomic bomb, a group of scientists worked day and night in Los Alamos, racing against the Nazis, in order to develop the atomic bomb before fascism. At that time, they had the great ambition of saving the world. Once Oppenheimer was "like Prometheus, the rebellious Greek god — — He stole fire from Zeus and gave it to mankind. "



But when the atomic bomb exploded, Oppenheimer and other scientists realized that the world was not what it used to be. He remembered the verse in the Bhagavad gita: "Now I am a god of death, the destroyer of all worlds." Later, when he saw that the new world he had created was out of control in rolling in the deep and tried to contain it, "those in power rose angrily like Zeus and gave him a hard hand." The "security hearing" that changed the rest of his life was the strangulation ceremony.



The conception of the film Oppenheimer is self-evident.


In December 2022, Biden’s government overturned the decision of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission to revoke Oppenheimer’s safety license in 1954, saying that the revocation was "politically motivated" and was rehabilitated after many years, but Oppenheimer had already passed away in 1967.



When Oppenheimer pressed the button to detonate the first atomic bomb that year, it might ignite the atmosphere and destroy the whole earth, which was an extraordinary moment in human history. From that moment on, mankind entered a brand-new nuclear age. Oppenheimer is faced with a moral dilemma like Prometheus. Prometheus stole the fire of the gods and passed it on to mankind, while Oppenheimer handed over the atomic bomb and delivered the unknown.



Through this history, we can get a glimpse that when the scientific community creates a new technology, the world may not be ready for it. Who should bear the series of lagging chain reactions caused by this? This is also the core theme that Oppenheimer wants to discuss with you — — Consequences.



Mapping to the current technological era, many top artificial intelligence researchers regard the present as their "Oppenheimer moment" and also regard Oppenheimer’s story as a warning. When scientists unlock a technology that may have unpredictable consequences, what kind of responsibility should they bear? The artificial intelligence problem that more and more people are beginning to worry about can be regarded as some kind of signal.



Oppenheimer didn’t give an answer to this, but it made an unavoidable presentation. After all, only in an open society, when people can acquire knowledge without restriction, can we "make a huge, complex, constantly changing, increasingly specialized and expert technical world still be a world shared by all mankind."



It is natural for scientists to seek scientific breakthroughs, and the responsibility of protecting the world from the negative impact of scientific progress should be borne by the whole society. This is Nolan’s reflection on society as an artist, and it also reflects the arc of responsibility and responsibility in his human nature.

Start of "Thousand Counties Project" | Play the leading role of county hospitals, set up county medical communities and promote the sinking of medical resources.

  CCTV News:The National Health and Wellness Commission requires that county hospitals play a leading role and take the lead in establishing a close county medical community to promote the sinking of high-quality medical resources. At present, more than 700 counties across the country have piloted the construction of county medical communities to see the practices of Hunan, Chongqing and Henan.

  Shimen County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Hunan Province and 10 grass-roots medical and health institutions set up a compact medical community, with unified deployment of personnel and property, and the superior departments of county-level hospitals helped township hospitals one to one. Hupingshan Town is more than 100 kilometers away from the county seat. In the past, the medical conditions in the town health center were poor, and it was difficult for people to see a doctor. After joining the Medical Community of the County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine last year, every weekend, Cui Haibo, director of the Department of Acupuncture, Tuina and Rehabilitation, led the team members to Hupingshan Town Health Center for consultation, rounds and teaching, helped them to develop more than 10 appropriate technologies of traditional Chinese medicine, and set up an acupuncture physiotherapy department. In just three months, more than 600 patients were treated.

  Zhongxian county in Chongqing has carried out the reform of "medical communication, human communication and financial communication" in the medical community, and set up "five centers" such as remote imaging, remote ECG and pathological consultation to realize grassroots inspection and county-level diagnosis, and some difficult diseases have been diagnosed in township hospitals. In view of the lack of motivation for county-level hospitals to help the grassroots, Zhongxian established an "interest linkage mechanism" in the medical community. For example, county-level hospital doctors went to a department of township hospitals to help, and their new business income was included in the performance of county-level hospital doctors in proportion.

  In order to encourage medical staff to go to the grassroots level, Zhoukou City, Henan Province stipulates that doctors in medical community hospitals must serve at the grassroots level for not less than one year when they are promoted to senior titles; Suixi County Hospital in Anhui Province established a special fund for the operation of medical community, which was used for the reward and subsidy of doctors at the grass-roots level and the reward performance of branch presidents.

Putin meets with soldiers to quell armed rebellion, revealing that Wagner is paid 86 billion rubles a year.

  On the 27th, Putin met with representatives of powerful departments involved in quelling the Wagner incident and thanked them for "containing the civil war". He also disclosed that the Russian government paid more than 86 billion rubles (about 1 billion US dollars) to Wagner Group in the past year. Belarusian President alexander lukashenko, who mediated the incident, welcomed Wagner Group to "settle in" and said that this private military enterprise would bring practical experience to Belarus.

  thank

  On the same day, Putin received about 2,500 representatives from powerful departments such as the Ministry of National Defense, the Federal Security Service, the National Guard and the Ministry of Internal Affairs who participated in the counter-insurgency in the church square in the Kremlin, and delivered a live televised speech, thanking them for their courage, loyalty and loyalty to the Russian people. "You saved our motherland from turmoil and actually contained the civil war." Putin said that the rapid and accurate deployment of powerful departments has brought extremely dangerous situations under control, avoided civilian casualties, and let rebel participants see that "the army and the people are not on their side."

  "You saved our motherland from turmoil and actually contained the civil war." Putin said that the rapid and accurate deployment of powerful departments has brought extremely dangerous situations under control, avoided civilian casualties, and let rebel participants see that "the army and the people are not on their side." Putin and the whole audience observed a minute’s silence for the Russian crew killed by Wagner.

  disclose

  In his speech, Putin said that the salary of the entire Wagner Group was completely guaranteed by the state, and the funds came from the Ministry of National Defense and the state budget. From May 2022 to May 2023, the government paid 86.262 billion rubles to Wagner Group for the payment of wages and bonuses.

  According to Putin, although Wagner’s funds came from the state financial allocation, Prigozhin, as the owner of this private military enterprise, made huge profits from the military-related business. In the past year, "he made 80 billion rubles (about 940 million US dollars) by supplying food and catering services to the military". Putin said that law enforcement agencies will investigate where the money paid to Wagner Group and Prigozhin went.

  Prigozhin has repeatedly pointed out that the military competed with Wagner Group for credit, embezzled ammunition supplies to Wagner, criticized the Russian regular army for its ineffective actions in Ukraine, and pointed its finger at shoigu and gerasimov. According to him, Wagner’s motorcade marched to Moscow to "protest", not to overthrow the federal government.

  Xiajia

  Belarusian President Lukashenko confirmed on the 27th that Prigozhin arrived in Belarus on the same day. Lukashenko also said that Belarus will not organize the construction of a camp for Wagner, but will help provide accommodation if necessary. In addition, there will be no recruitment point for Wagner organization in Belarus.

  Yevgeny Prigozhin, founder and commander of Wagner Group, ordered his troops to March into Rostov-on-Don, the capital of Rostov State, on the evening of 23rd, and announced on 24th that he would occupy the headquarters of the southern Russian military region there, that is, the command center for special military operations against Ukraine without bloodshed. Prigozhin asked the Russian Federal Government to dismiss Defense Minister Sergei shoigu and Russian Chief of Staff Valery gerasimov, and Wagner’s motorcade quickly marched to Moscow.

  On the evening of 24th, Prigozhin accepted the mediation of Belarusian President Lukashenko and agreed to avoid bloodshed. The Kremlin guaranteed that Prigozhin could go to Belarus and would withdraw his criminal case. Wagner turned around and returned to the field camp, and the relevant armed personnel were evacuated from Rostov-on-Don. The crisis was finally resolved in less than 24 hours.

  Russian Presidential Press Secretary dmitry Peskov said that Putin spoke highly of Lukashenko’s efforts to mediate the Wagner incident. Lukashenko told Belarusian official media earlier that day that no one was a hero in this attempted rebellion. In his view, the Wagner Group and the Russian military have long been at odds. "We didn’t deal with this situation in time, and thought that the contradiction would be resolved automatically, but in fact it won’t … …”

Policy makes efforts to promote equipment renewal and run out of "acceleration"

  CCTV News:On July 25 this year, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Finance issued a notice on "Several Measures for Strengthening Support for Large-scale Equipment Renewal and Consumer Goods Trade-in", and made overall arrangements for extra-long special treasury bonds of about 300 billion yuan to strengthen support for large-scale equipment renewal and consumer goods trade-in.

  Green, aging-adapted transportation equipment makes efforts to "new"

  Nearly a month has passed. As a key area mentioned in the document, what new progress has been made in the equipment update in the transportation field? What kind of development opportunities have enterprises ushered in? Come and see the reporters’ interviews in many places.

  In Cangzhou, Hebei Province, a new batch of 200 new energy buses have been put into use. In the interview, the reporter found that the size of these new energy buses ranges from 10 meters to 6 meters. The person in charge of the enterprise told the reporter that this arrangement is mainly based on the consideration of reducing costs and increasing efficiency. The 10-meter-class new energy bus has a large passenger capacity and will be put into a large passenger flow line passing through the bustling business district. The 6-meter-class buses are more driving in the back streets and alleys to meet the needs of residents’ doorways.

  While the body is more compact, this vehicle update also highlights the characteristics of aging transformation. In the interview, the reporter learned that the proportion of middle-aged and elderly passengers in Cangzhou bus passenger flow is about 80%. The updated new energy bus adopts a low entrance design and is equipped with barrier-free pedals to facilitate passengers with limited legs and feet to get on and off in wheelchairs. The local transportation department said that it plans to open two new special lines to respect and love the elderly this year, and subsidize the updated new energy buses.

  At the same time, equipment renewal also promotes the green and low-carbon development of the transportation industry. This summer vacation, a night cruise on the Pearl River by boat attracted many tourists to punch in. Compared with traditional fuel boats, electric cruise ships bring different experiences to tourists.

  The person in charge of the cruise ship company told the reporter that the electric cruise ship not only brought a good reputation to tourists, but also consumed one-third of the energy of the traditional fuel ship. At the beginning of August, the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of Scrapping and Updating Subsidies for Old Operating Ships in Transportation was released, and he clearly felt that this was a development opportunity.

  With the number of pure electric cruise ships increasing year by year, the supporting facilities of the terminal have also been upgraded. Up to now, five terminals in Guangzhou have completed the upgrading of berthing, charging, pollution prevention and other facilities and equipment, and the relevant supervision and service systems are being improved.

  Equipment renewal, afterburning and efficiency enhancement help the port to glow with new kinetic energy.

  Seizing the opportunity of large-scale equipment renewal, shipbuilding enterprises have ushered in the opportunity of green transformation. As an important transportation hub of land-water combined transport, ports are actively seeking changes through equipment renewal to improve market competitiveness.

  According to the latest data, from January to June this year, the container throughput of Qingdao Port increased by 9% year-on-year, and the cargo throughput increased by 5% year-on-year. Twelve container routes were added in Central and South America, Europe, Southeast Asia and other countries and regions. Busy shipping demand not only puts forward higher requirements for port operation efficiency, but also brings new challenges to traditional hoisting equipment.

  In the face of new challenges, equipment renewal is "afterburning". At present, a newly installed hoisting equipment is undergoing inspection before production. The staff told the reporter that the lifting height of the upgraded equipment is higher, reaching 52 meters, which can meet the operational requirements of various large ships around the world. Compared with the traditional hoisting equipment, it not only has advanced technologies such as automatic control system, intelligent perception, anti-shake and anti-collision, but also is more flexible, and can hoist two 40-foot or four 20-foot containers at the same time.

  Driven by the demand for large-scale equipment renewal, more and more "smart" automation equipment appears in container loading and unloading, transportation and other links, which makes many old docks in Qingdao Port glow with new kinetic energy.

  Since the beginning of this year, China’s water transport infrastructure construction has continued to advance. By the end of June, China has built 21 automated container terminals and 28 automated dry bulk terminals, ranking first in the world in the number of automated terminals built and under construction. Equipment renewal drives the development of port terminals to be large-scale and professional.

  Policy makes efforts to promote equipment renewal and run out of "acceleration"

  Large-scale transportation equipment renewal is one of the key tasks in the transportation field this year. Recently, with the introduction of a series of new measures to promote equipment renewal, the industry demand has been accelerated to help upgrade the transportation sector.

  A few days ago, the Ministry of Transport, together with relevant ministries and commissions, successively issued the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of Subsidies for the Renewal of Buses and Power Batteries in New Energy Cities, the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of Subsidies for the Scrapping and Renewal of Old Operating Ships in Transportation and the Notice on the Implementation of Scrapping and Renewal of Old Operating Trucks, which clarified the scope, standards and application process of subsidies. Experts said that compared with the "Action Plan for Large-scale Transportation Equipment Renewal" issued in early June, the promulgation of these three rules will promote the "acceleration" of transportation equipment renewal.

  At present, many places have taken large-scale equipment renewal as an opportunity to accelerate the pace of intelligent and green upgrading in the transportation field. In Jiangsu, the transportation department will focus on five key areas, such as scrapping and updating of operating ships and upgrading of port equipment. This year, the province will strive to dismantle and update about 2,400 ships and plan to renovate 20 old storage tanks in the port.

  Sichuan Province proposes that by 2027, more than 8,000 new energy buses and 1,200 new energy cold chain transport vehicles will be added and updated, and more than 5,000 electric (including hybrid) bus power batteries will be updated, basically forming a green, low-carbon, intelligent and efficient transportation facilities and equipment system.

  The reporter learned from the Ministry of Transport that China’s transportation equipment is large in scale and has sufficient potential for renewal. According to the latest data, by the end of last year, China had more than 20,000 railway locomotives, more than 12 million operating cars, about 120,000 water transport ships and nearly 700,000 public buses and trams. Large-scale transportation equipment renewal will help to expand investment, improve infrastructure, promote industrial upgrading, and also help to save energy and reduce carbon and logistics costs.
