  Recently, the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline has once again attracted the attention of the international community. A few days ago, the public prosecutor in charge of investigating the incident in the Swedish Procuratorate said that although the possibility of an explosion by an independent organization is not ruled out in theory, the current investigation results show that the explosion is most likely to be directly or indirectly involved by state actors.

  In September 2022, the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline that transported natural gas from Russia to Europe via the Baltic Sea exploded, and all parties generally believed that this incident was "deliberate destruction". Who is the culprit? More than half a year has passed, and the truth is still confusing.

  What is even more intriguing is the attitude of the United States and Europe in investigating the incident. Washington post recently quoted a European diplomat as saying, "Don’t talk about ‘ Beixi ’ " Now it has become an unwritten rule when NATO and EU policymakers meet. Why do American and European political circles and western mainstream media avoid talking about "Beixi"? What is the truth? Will the explosion of "Beixi" natural gas pipeline really become a secret that can’t be said or solved under the heavy cloud of doubt?

  What are the questions about the incident?

  At the end of September, 2022, there were four leakage points in the parts of the "Beixi No.1" and "Nord Stream 2" pipelines located in the waters near Sweden and Denmark. At that time, the Swedish survey station detected two strong underwater explosions in the sea area where the pipeline leaked, and all parties generally believed that the pipeline was deliberately damaged. A few days after the incident, Denmark, Sweden and Germany began independent investigations, and no clear conclusion has been reached so far. During this period, around the key issue of "who is behind the scenes", all parties speculated and broke the news.

  In February this year, Seymour Hirsch, a senior American investigative journalist and Pulitzer Prize winner, wrote that the "Beixi" pipeline was secretly destroyed by US intelligence agencies and US military personnel. In this regard, the US government denied it. On March 7, the US media reported that a pro-Ukrainian group had created the explosion with US government officials as the source. Ukrainian Defense Minister Reznikov immediately denied that Uzbekistan had anything to do with the explosion. Russian President Vladimir Putin once said that the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline was a terrorist attack at the national level.

  Wang Zhen, a researcher at the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, said in an interview with this reporter that from the comprehensive information of all parties, there are two judgments that are relatively positive at present: First, the bombing of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline was a man-made destruction; Second, the destruction may be supported by transnational official background, and general organizations do not have such strong attack means and tactical coordination ability.

  "Specifically, the current ‘ Beixi ’ There are three main questions about the explosion of natural gas pipeline: First, the biggest question is who is the direct perpetrator. After the incident, the United States, Europe, Ukraine and Russia blamed each other, but they did not produce conclusive evidence; Secondly, the attitude of western countries towards this incident is intriguing. This incident involved an attack on important civilian infrastructure, which had a great impact and was of a bad nature. However, Western countries and the media remained almost silent, not only selectively ignoring Seymour Hirsch’s report, but also taking a negative or even opposing attitude towards Russia’s call for the establishment of an international commission of inquiry. Third, Germany, Denmark and other European countries launched an investigation into the incident. Why is the progress slow? Is it because of the difficulty in investigation and evidence collection, the lack of clues, or the results of the investigation are too sensitive to be announced under great external pressure? " Wang Zhen said.

  Seymour Hirsch once again pointed his finger at the United States when interviewed by the German media a few days ago. He said that the United States wanted to blackmail Russia by blowing up the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline. In a heavy report of more than 5,000 words published in February, he described in detail the whole process of planning by the US national security department, personally ordering by US President Biden, implementing by the US Navy and cooperating with the Norwegian military, and finally blowing up the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline.

  Karina Zhao, director of the Russian and European Institute of the International Strategy Institute of the Central Party School (National School of Administration), told this reporter that the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline is an important artery related to European energy security, involving the energy interests of almost all EU countries. After the destruction of such an important infrastructure, in addition to the unexpected calm reaction of relevant European countries and the abnormal attitude of refusing to conduct a joint investigation with Russia, what role the United States played in this incident is also an important question.

  "As we all know, the United States has been opposed to ‘ Beixi ’ Natural gas pipelines, trying to interfere and prevent pipeline construction through sanctions and other means, do not want too close energy cooperation between Russia and Europe. Objectively speaking, the United States is indeed this time ‘ Beixi ’ Strategic beneficiary of natural gas pipeline explosion. " Karina Zhao said.

  Why do the United States and Europe dodge?

  The truth of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline explosion is confusing, as is the evasive attitude of political circles in the United States and Europe and most mainstream western media in investigating the incident.

  Washington post recently reported that although the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline aroused many people’s curiosity and speculation, some western officials were in no hurry to find out who blew up the pipeline. In the absence of specific clues, embarrassing silence prevailed. The newspaper quoted a European diplomat as saying that it was like a body at a family gathering. Everyone could see a body lying there, but they were pretending that everything was normal. "It’s better not to know (the truth)."

  Juan gonzalez, founder of the All-American Hispanic Journalists Association, pointed out that the American media and Congress paid little attention to the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline. "The media didn’t seem to be interested at all and didn’t want to know what happened there, and no one in the US Congress asked questions about it."

  Why do American and European political circles and most western mainstream media avoid talking about "Beixi"?

  "First of all, the investigation of this matter has not yet reached the final result, and the relevant discussion inevitably involves various ‘ Conspiracy theory ’ This will inevitably affect the unity and trust within Europe and NATO. Secondly, after the outbreak of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, ‘ Support Ukraine and oppose Russia ’ Has become a kind of western countries ‘ Political correctness ’ , related to this ‘ Beixi ’ Natural gas pipelines are also highly politicized. In this context, for ‘ Beixi ’ The discussion of the natural gas pipeline explosion is likely to be accused of having illusions about Russia, and politicians may not be willing to take such risks. " Wang Zhen pointed out that for European countries that rely on Russian energy, they are victims of the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline, and the situation is actually very embarrassing. They have to endure the domestic inflationary pressure caused by "expired gas" without showing their nostalgia for Russian energy, and they are quite passive in terms of energy independence and strategic autonomy.

  Karina Zhao believes that behind the evasive attitude of the United States and Europe is the concern of both sides about their so-called "overall situation". "In Europe’s view, the Russian-Ukrainian conflict led to the destruction of the European security pattern established after World War II, and Europe’s own geopolitical security was directly threatened. At present, the most important thing is to restore the security pattern in Europe, which cannot be separated from the military support of the United States. The United States hopes that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine will completely weaken Russia’s military challenge to the United States. To achieve this goal, it also needs the cooperation of Europe. Both the United States and Europe realize that ‘ Beixi ’ It is a topic that can easily intensify the differences between the two sides. If the investigation goes on, it is likely to damage the unity of the transatlantic alliance. Therefore, the United States and Europe very tacitly choose to ‘ Overall situation ’ I don’t want to touch it now ‘ Beixi ’ This highly controversial topic is likely to aggravate the conflict between the United States and Europe, so as not to affect their most important strategic security. "

  As Washington post said, Western officials would rather not know who the culprit is than find their allies responsible for the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline.

  Can the mystery of "Beixi" be solved?

  After the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline, the voices of the international community calling for an objective, fair and professional investigation have come and gone. A spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China recently said that it has been more than half a year since the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline. Finding out the truth as soon as possible and publishing the investigation results are related to the global transnational infrastructure security, as well as the international rule of law and justice.

  Hungarian Foreign Minister Jardot West also said earlier that the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline was the first attack on an important infrastructure in Europe and should be regarded as a terrorist attack. Hungary supports a comprehensive, in-depth, systematic and detailed investigation of the incident, so that the international community can know the truth.

  When will the truth of the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline surface? Or, is it possible for the world to know the truth?

  Wang Zhen believes that there are three possibilities for the investigation results of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline explosion: "First, the relevant countries will announce the truth after completing the investigation, and the facts will be revealed to the world, which is the most anticipated result of the international community; Second, after completing the investigation, the relevant countries sealed up the results in the name of confidentiality and national security, and refused to publish the truth to avoid negative impact on the relevant countries and parties; Third, some countries publish false information in the name of investigation to confuse people and obstruct the international community from conducting objective investigations. Judging from the current situation that some countries refuse to conduct international joint investigations, the second situation is more likely, that is, the relevant countries refuse to publish the truth or selectively publish the investigation results in various names. "

  No matter what the truth is, the serious negative impact of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline explosion on the global geopolitical pattern and energy security has emerged and will deepen day by day.

  Finland’s Helsinki Times pointed out that the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline caused huge environmental and social consequences, and many European countries, including Germany, suffered huge losses in industry, and European energy prices soared.

  "The truth of some major events may never be known to the world, but it will inevitably affect or change the trajectory of historical development. ‘ Beixi ’ The explosion of natural gas pipelines will undoubtedly have a major geopolitical impact. " Karina Zhao analyzed that on the one hand, the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline was destroyed, which basically cut off the energy cooperation link between Russia and Europe objectively, making Europe even want to maintain or resume energy cooperation with Russia, but it has become very difficult in physical conditions; On the other hand, at present, there are still many people in European political circles and public opinion circles who accept the American statement that Russia may have destroyed the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline, which further aggravated the antagonism between Russia and Europe.

  Wang Zhen pointed out that in the short term, the explosion of the "Beixi" natural gas pipeline forced some European countries to reduce their energy dependence on Russia, and created opportunities for American energy to enter the European market better and faster after the "shale gas revolution"; In the long run, the incident further highlights NATO’s strategic value in dealing with the so-called "Russian threat", breaks the illusion of reconciliation and cooperation between Russia and Europe in the future, and blocks Europe’s step towards greater strategic autonomy.

In the first quarter, cross-border capital flows were stable, and the two-way opening of capital projects and foreign exchange markets was steadily promoted.

  Topic:In the first quarter of this year, China’s cross-border capital flows remained stable, and supply and demand in the domestic foreign exchange market were independently balanced. At present, the impact of Sino-US trade friction on China’s balance of payments is generally controllable. In this context, the foreign exchange bureau will continue to promote trade and investment facilitation, steadily and orderly promote the two-way opening of capital projects and foreign exchange markets, and at the same time focus on preventing and defusing financial risks, improve the management framework of cross-border capital flows, and safeguard national economic and financial security.

  "Overall, in the first quarter of this year, China’s cross-border capital flows remained stable, and supply and demand in the domestic foreign exchange market were independently balanced." On April 19th, at the press conference of the State Council Office, Wang Chunying, director and spokesperson of the Balance of Payments Department of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, said that in the first quarter of this year, the global economy continued to recover steadily, and the volatility of the international financial market increased. China’s economic operation has maintained a steady and positive trend, the transformation and upgrading have been further promoted, and the quality and efficiency have been continuously improved. The exchange rate of RMB against the US dollar fluctuated in both directions and remained basically stable, and the exchange rate expectation was reasonably divided.

  Two-way flow of cross-border funds

  The situation is more stable.

  With the normalization of monetary policies in major economies and the intensification of international financial market volatility, cross-border capital flows have attracted much attention in recent years. For the situation in the first quarter, Wang Chunying refined it into one sentence: the two-way flow of cross-border funds is more stable, and the pattern of independent balance between foreign exchange supply and demand is further consolidated.

  According to the data released by the foreign exchange bureau, in the first quarter, the foreign-related income, expenditure, settlement and sale of foreign exchange of market entities showed steady growth. Foreign-related income of banks on behalf of customers increased by 25% year-on-year, foreign-related expenditure increased by 19%, foreign exchange settlement by banks increased by 16%, and foreign exchange sales increased by 9%, indicating that foreign-related economic activities of China’s market players have been promoted in an orderly manner and steadily.

  It is worth noting that foreign exchange trading has not fluctuated greatly. In the first quarter, the RMB exchange rate showed a two-way fluctuation trend driven by market forces. In the first three months of this year, the central parity of the RMB against the US dollar appreciated by 3.9%, mainly reflected in the appreciation of 3.2% in January, and the two-way small fluctuations have become more obvious since February.

  At the same time, the settlement and sale of foreign exchange by enterprises and individuals and the foreign exchange trading of market institutions such as banks are self-balanced. On the one hand, from the point of view of the settlement and sale of foreign exchange by enterprises and individuals, the balance is good, which has continued the trend of alternating small surplus and deficit for more than half a year. From January to March this year, the bank’s settlement and sale of foreign exchange on behalf of customers was a surplus of $2.3 billion, a deficit of $1.6 billion and $2.6 billion respectively; On the other hand, in the foreign exchange market, the foreign exchange supply and demand caused by forward and option transactions, as well as the foreign exchange trading of some overseas institutions participating in the inter-bank foreign exchange market, are other major foreign exchange supply and demand factors, which form a balanced relationship with the difference between the settlement and sale of foreign exchange by enterprises and individuals and realize the independent clearing of the market. Individual purchases of foreign exchange declined slightly month by month, and the cumulative purchases of foreign exchange in the first quarter decreased by 1% year-on-year.

  "We believe that the overall balance and smooth operation of China’s cross-border capital flows will not change." Wang Chunying emphasized that China’s cross-border funds will still maintain a two-way flow and overall balance this year. Internationally, the momentum of global economic recovery has not changed, and the process of monetary policy normalization in major economies still meets market expectations. Of course, external unstable factors continue to exist, and the volatility of the international financial market has increased recently, but the stable factors still dominate. Domestically, the supporting factors of policies and economic fundamentals are more stable. The economy started well, and from the perspective of financial risk prevention and control, very strict arrangements have been made, including promoting the reform of financial supervision system, which have laid a solid foundation for the stable, sustained and healthy development of financial markets.

  Trade friction on China

  The influence of balance of payments is controllable

  Under the background of Sino-US trade friction, all parties are also concerned about whether China will consider strengthening the management of cross-border capital flows or taking other measures to deal with it. "From the current point of view, the impact of Sino-US trade friction on China’s balance of payments is generally controllable." Wang Chunying said that the SAFE also made an in-depth analysis on the possible impact of cross-border capital flows in China.

  At present, China’s current account balance is more balanced and will remain within a reasonable range. In recent years, China’s current account revenue and expenditure have been in a reasonable range of basic balance, and the ratio of current account surplus to GDP in 2017 was 1.3%. In the future, under the influence of internal and external economic and policy environment, the current account revenue and expenditure may be more balanced.

  "In the short term, it is not ruled out that there will be fluctuations in individual quarters, but in the medium and long term, the current account revenue and expenditure will be a stable and orderly development process." Wang Chunying said that the new pattern of China’s opening to the outside world will continue to be promoted in an orderly manner, and the two-way opening of financial markets will be conducive to the balanced flow of cross-border capital. In addition, trade protectionism is not favored by the international market, and the sustained recovery of the euro zone, Japanese and other economies will restrain the sharp strengthening of the US dollar exchange rate, which will also help stabilize China’s cross-border capital flows. Therefore, the two-way flow and overall balance of cross-border funds in China will not change much.

  "Of course, we will continue to pay attention to the progress of Sino-US trade friction, objectively evaluate and judge in time." Wang Chunying emphasized that in fact, we believe that the most fundamental way to adapt to or respond to external shocks or changes in the external environment is still to do our own thing and maintain the stable and healthy development of the domestic economy.

  To this end, on the one hand, the SAFE will continue to promote trade and investment facilitation, focus on promoting trade and investment facilitation, deepen the reform of foreign exchange management, steadily and orderly promote the two-way opening of capital account and foreign exchange market, and serve the new pattern of comprehensive opening up of the country and the development of the real economy. On the other hand, we should focus on preventing and resolving financial risks, improve the management framework of cross-border capital flows, prevent cross-border capital flows risks, ensure the safety, flow, preservation and appreciation of foreign exchange reserves, and safeguard national economic and financial security.

  Steady and orderly progress

  Capital account convertibility

  "We will steadily and orderly promote capital account convertibility and promote the two-way opening of financial markets. In this regard, we will continue to promote the opening of domestic stock and bond markets, improve bond links, study Huluntong, and support the interconnection mechanism of Shanghai-Hong Kong and Shenzhen-Hong Kong stock markets." Wang Chunying emphasized.

  Recently, at the 2018 annual meeting of Boao Forum for Asia, Yi Gang, governor of the People’s Bank of China, announced the specific measures and timetable for further expanding the opening up of the financial industry, and made it clear that the opening up of the financial industry will cooperate with the reform of the exchange rate formation mechanism and the process of capital account convertibility to advance together.

  Since the end of 2017, Shanghai and Shenzhen have launched a new round of QDLP (Qualified Domestic Limited Partner) and QDIE (Qualified Domestic Investment Enterprise) related work, and the market response has been positive. Wang Chunying introduced that recently, according to the pilot demand and foreign exchange situation in Shanghai and Shenzhen, the foreign exchange bureau plans to increase the total amount of these two places. In the next step, we will steadily support the opening of the financial market according to the pilot and balance of payments, and further improve the foreign exchange management systems such as QFII, RQFII and QDII, actively support domestic enterprises with the ability and conditions to carry out real and compliant foreign investment, optimize financial services and business environment, and promote the steady growth of foreign investment in China.

  Next, China will steadily promote capital account convertibility, deepen the reform of the formation mechanism of RMB exchange rate marketization, establish and improve a more open and competitive foreign exchange market, and further enhance the freedom and convenience of cross-border trade and investment. At the same time, strengthen the supervision capacity building of the foreign exchange market, strengthen infrastructure construction, strengthen the operational capacity building of foreign exchange reserves, actively support the "Belt and Road" and international capacity cooperation, and ensure the safety, flow, preservation and appreciation of foreign exchange reserves.

Do your duty, do your duty, cooperate with each other, and pay close attention to implementation-do a good job in flood control, flood control and disaster relief from beginning to end with caution

  Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, the Communist Party of China, held a meeting on August 17th to study and deploy flood control, flood relief and post-disaster recovery and reconstruction. The meeting pointed out that "seven downs and eight rises" is a critical period for flood control. Under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the supreme leader as the core, party committees and governments at all levels have strengthened organizational leadership and strictly implemented their responsibilities. The National Defense General and relevant departments and units have performed their duties and worked together. The national comprehensive fire rescue team has rushed ahead, the People’s Liberation Army and the Armed Police Force have rushed to help, the central enterprises and social forces have bravely shouldered heavy burdens, and the broad masses of the people have worked together to build a flood control and disaster relief and protect their homes.

  At present, China is still in the main flood season, and disasters such as heavy rain, floods and typhoons are still high in many parts of the country, and there are still risks of floods in some river basins. The meeting stressed that all relevant regions, departments and units should always tighten the string of flood control and disaster relief, always put the safety of people’s lives and property first, and do a good job in flood control, flood control and disaster relief with a sense of responsibility of "always worrying".

  Based on the first year, it is more significant to prevent floods and disasters. The National Defense General and all relevant departments and units resolutely implement the spirit of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee Conference, perform their duties with due diligence, make concerted efforts and pay close attention to implementation, earnestly do a good job in flood control, flood relief and post-disaster recovery and reconstruction, and ensure high-quality development with high-level safety.

  Make every effort to speed up post-disaster recovery and reconstruction, and effectively guarantee the safety of people’s lives and property.

  Measure, take photos and check … Early in the morning, in Qiu Zhuangzi Village, Dongyangzhuang Township, Bazhou City, Langfang City, Hebei Province, Zhao Ke, a surveyor, was busy surveying and registering. Langfang started the post-disaster reconstruction work and comprehensively explored the housing safety situation.

  "In the past few days, we are going to replant fast-growing vegetables with no harvest plots, so we should pay close attention to the light disaster ‘ One spray and three defenses ’ 。” Zhao Xiaobo, a big grain grower in Yongnian District, Handan City, Hebei Province, said. Yongnian District Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau instructed the affected people to remove stagnant water as soon as possible, plow and scatter soil moisture, and minimize losses.

  The flood receded, roads were rushed through, villages resumed communication, and farmland was repaired, and the production and living order in the affected areas was accelerating.

  To implement the spirit of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee Conference, all relevant departments and units have always been tight-fisted, never slackened, made comprehensive arrangements, highlighted key points, made overall plans, continued to do a good job in flood control and flood relief, and made every effort to speed up post-disaster recovery and reconstruction.

  — — Post-disaster reconstruction was carried out in an orderly manner.

  Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission proposed to work out a high-quality master plan for post-disaster recovery and reconstruction, effectively implement consistency and overall planning throughout the reconstruction work, and solidly complete the post-disaster recovery and reconstruction tasks in urban and rural residents’ housing, public service facilities, major infrastructure and other fields.

  The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council organized central enterprises to participate in emergency rescue and disaster relief in severely affected areas, and has invested 420,000 person-times and 140,000 sub-equipment vehicles. Next, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council will further fully mobilize the strength of central enterprises to do a good job in flood control, emergency rescue and disaster relief, recovery and reconstruction.

  — — Emergency allocation of disaster relief funds.

  3.83 billion yuan for agricultural disaster prevention and mitigation, 3.83 billion yuan for water conservancy and disaster relief, 1 billion yuan for flood storage and detention areas, and 240 million yuan for highway emergency access … … Since entering the critical period of flood control, the Ministry of Finance, together with the Emergency Management Department, the Ministry of Water Resources, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the Ministry of Transport and other supporting places, has done a good job in emergency rescue and post-disaster recovery and reconstruction.

  Since the flood season, the central government has issued a total of 9.684 billion yuan of flood control and disaster relief funds, which strongly supports the emergency rescue in disaster areas, the assistance of the affected people, the recovery of agricultural production, the repair of water conservancy facilities damaged by floods, and the rushing of roads damaged by floods.

  — — Optimization and simplification of claims procedure.

  In Fangshan District and Mentougou District in Beijing, the insurance institutions set up a "claim service station at home" to answer questions for car owners on the spot. In shangzhi city and wuchang city, Heilongjiang Province, insurance institutions carried out unmanned aerial vehicle flight and ground survey, and opened a green quick compensation channel for affected farmers.

  In view of various property losses such as houses, vehicles and crops, how to settle claims has attracted much attention. The State Financial Supervision and Administration Bureau recently issued the Notice on Strengthening Insurance Prepayment and Doing a Good Job in Flood Control and Disaster Relief Insurance Claims, proposing the use of scientific and technological survey methods such as drones in agricultural insurance, the implementation of mutual recognition mechanism for survey and loss determination in auto insurance, and the implementation of "one enterprise, one policy" service measures in enterprise property insurance. According to the data of Tianjin Supervision Bureau of the State Financial Supervision Administration, as of August 18th, property insurance companies in Tianjin had received 9,110 insurance reports with an estimated loss of 279 million yuan.

  Adhere to the bottom line thinking and do everything possible to minimize losses.

  Unify thoughts and actions with the spirit of the important instructions of the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader and the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, and escort the affected people to rebuild their homes. We must adhere to the people first, life first, and bottom line thinking.

  How to ensure grain production?

  "Flooded corn should be supplemented with quick-acting fertilizer as soon as possible." In the past few days, Chen Wencai, an agronomist of the Agricultural and Rural Bureau of Yongqing County, Hebei Province, has been stuck in the field to guide the villagers.

  The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs recently issued the "Notice on Grasping the Recovery of Production after Floods and Winning the Annual Grain and Agricultural Harvest", requiring all localities to take unconventional measures, implement ten measures to restore production after agricultural disasters and stabilize the production of grain and important agricultural products, and resolutely win the tough battle of fighting disasters and winning grain and agricultural harvest.

  Liu Lihua, deputy director of the Planting Management Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said that it is a major event in the current work of agriculture, rural areas and farmers to do a good job in agricultural disaster relief and resume production, and agricultural and rural departments at all levels should constantly grasp the field management. Up to now, governments at all levels in the disaster areas have invested a total of 540 million yuan to implement 26.38 million mu of post-disaster field management measures such as spraying foliar fertilizer and preventing and controlling pests and diseases. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs’ agricultural dispatch on August 18 showed that the growth of autumn grain in most parts of the country is generally normal except for the local flood-stricken areas in northeast China.

  How to prevent the population in poverty-stricken areas from returning to poverty?

  Effectively run the monitoring and assistance mechanism to prevent poverty, do everything possible to increase the income of people affected by poverty, and accurately arrange and use financial convergence to promote rural revitalization subsidy funds & HELIP; … The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs (National Rural Revitalization Bureau) will give a tilt to the allocation of subsidies for rural revitalization in 2024, and resolutely hold the bottom line of not returning to poverty on a large scale.

  How can the affected people and business entities tide over the difficulties?

  The People’s Bank of China has decided to increase the amount of small loans for supporting agriculture in six provinces of Beijing, Hebei, Jilin, Heilongjiang, Fujian and Chongqing by 35 billion yuan, and continue to support the disaster relief and post-disaster reconstruction of financial services in these severely affected areas.

  The National Defense General Office, the Emergency Management Department and the State Grain and Material Reserve Bureau jointly allocated woven bags with a total value of 87.64 million yuan and other central emergency rescue and relief materials to support places. Next, we will guide local governments to refine their work plans, strengthen housing safety appraisal, epidemic prevention and disinfection, and organize the transfer of people to return in an orderly manner. Increase support for the repair and reconstruction of damaged houses, provide timely assistance in winter and spring, and ensure a warm winter.

  Based on the long-term, further enhance China’s disaster prevention, mitigation and relief capabilities.

  The Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee meeting held on August 17th emphasized that it is necessary to make careful investigation and summary, pay close attention to the shortcomings and strong and weak items, and further enhance China’s disaster prevention, mitigation and relief capabilities.

  Flood control and disaster relief is an encounter and a protracted war. Relevant departments and units conscientiously implement the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, make overall plans for the present and the long term, and make systematic plans and scientific policies.

  Further strengthen the linkage between meteorological early warning and disaster prediction. The China Meteorological Bureau held a party meeting on August 18th, proposing to do a good job of point-to-point accurate forecasting and rolling update, strengthen the warning prompting and directivity, and strive for more early warning.

  Further strengthen the emergency headquarters system at all levels. The National Defense Department and the Emergency Management Department put forward the idea of combining far and near, making overall plans, actively planning and promoting a number of projects that lay a solid foundation and benefit the long term, filling shortcomings, strong and weak items and plugging loopholes, consolidating the engineering foundation for flood and drought disaster prevention and response, and improving facilities and systems such as dispatching command, consultation and judgment, and business support.

  Further improve the river basin flood control engineering system. The relevant person in charge of the Flood and Drought Disaster Prevention Department of the Ministry of Water Resources said that the next step is to focus on long-term stability, focusing on key aspects such as the function of forecasting and early warning rehearsal plan, the construction of river basin flood control engineering system, the construction of digital twin river basins, and the rule of law management of flood control system and mechanism, and strive to improve the flood prevention capability of river basins.

  To get through flood control, disaster relief, recovery and reconstruction, we must also coordinate as a whole and adhere to the system concept.

  Make overall plans for flood control and drought relief. Since June, there have been staged meteorological droughts in Southwest China, Southeast Inner Mongolia and Northwest China. The National Defense General and the Emergency Management Department have increased their support for drought-resistant funds, technologies, materials and equipment in arid areas, and tried every means to increase drought-resistant water sources. The Ministry of Water Resources has made fine allocation, and dispatched working groups and expert groups to Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Qinghai and Ningxia provinces to guide and help local governments to do a good job in drought resistance and water supply.

  Coordinate flood control and disaster relief with economic and social development. On the one hand, we will focus on the restoration and reconstruction of damaged houses, and on the restoration and reconstruction of key public facilities, and advance simultaneously. The housing and construction departments acted quickly to ensure that the affected people could go home or move into their new homes before winter, and spend the winter safely and warmly. Fangshan Branch of Beijing Municipal Planning and Natural Resources Commission, together with the Municipal Planning Institute, gathered experts and backbone forces in the industry to study and deploy the site selection and planning evaluation of post-disaster resettlement in Fangshan District. While accelerating the restoration of damaged communication facilities, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has strengthened the application of new equipment and new technologies, strengthened the equipment such as drones and all-terrain vehicles, and improved the emergency communication support capability.

  At present, China is still in the main flood season, and flood control and disaster relief cannot be relaxed at all. Thoroughly implement the spirit of the important instructions of the Supreme Leader General Secretary and the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, and do all the work carefully from beginning to end, we will certainly win a comprehensive victory in flood control, flood relief and post-disaster recovery and reconstruction.

The General Offices of the General Office of the Central Committee of the CPC and the State Council issued the Notice on Doing a Good Job during the Spring Festival on New Year’s Day in 2024.

  Recently, the General Offices of the General Office of the Central Committee of the CPC and the State Council issued the Notice on Doing a Good Job during the Spring Festival of New Year’s Day in 2024. The full text is as follows:

Migratory Birds Move and Fly, Fate Together —— Observation on the Practice of Ecological Civilization in China

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, June 5th Title: Migratory birds move and fly, sharing fate and common destiny — — Practical observation of ecological civilization in China

  Xinhua News Agency reporter Luo Qi Wei Mengjia Cheng Yunjie

  As the sun sets in the west, hundreds of birds hover in the Wulong Pavilion of Beihai Park.

  "I am very excited, my old friend is back." One day in early April, Beijing citizen Zhang Liting quickly recorded the location and number of these birds and shared the news with volunteer friends in the WeChat group.

  Every spring, Beijing Swift, which overwinters from southern Africa, will experience an epic flight, leap over the Red Sea, cross Inner Mongolia and arrive in Beijing — — Their important habitats and breeding grounds.

  Zhang Liting is the leader of the observation point of Beihai Park, a scientific investigation project of Beijing Swift. She and her volunteer partners made a special trip to Beihai Park at least once a week to take photos of the Swift population here, which not only provided basic monitoring data for the survey of migratory birds, but also contributed to the protection of migratory birds.

  Every year, billions of migratory birds migrate across continents. Of the nine migratory routes in the world, four pass through China. On the important migration routes related to the survival and reproduction of migratory birds in the world, more and more Chinese loves and protects birds with the heart of common destiny and the wisdom of ecological innovation, and the modern vision of harmonious coexistence between man and nature is becoming a sensible reality.

  Caring — — Building a "migrant-friendly" city

  Beijing Swift is a subspecies of common Swift in Beijing. In 1870, a British scientist first discovered the specimen of Swift in Beijing, and named this kind of bird with long and narrow wings and resembling a sickle "Beijing Swift".

  In the eyes of many Beijing residents like Zhang Liting, Beijing Swift is the "image ambassador" of Beijing. It is the only bird named after Beijing. The prototype of Nini, the mascot of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, is Beijing Swift.

  In addition to Beijing Swift, every spring, a large number of migratory birds such as cranes, black storks and gulls migrate from south to north via Beijing.

  During the investigation and interview, the reporter found that there are many bird-friendly buildings in Beijing. Located in the northwest of Beijing, Guanting Reservoir National Wetland Park Museum is a typical representative. The cracks between the skins of this building can be used for birds to build nests, and its glass curtain wall has specially adopted a grid-like design with more sensitive bird vision, which can effectively prevent birds from hitting.

  In addition, Beijing is committed to improving the quality of forests in mountainous areas, restoring wetland ecosystems and providing necessary habitats, food and water for birds. Since 2017, Beijing has built nearly 60 urban forests with "close to nature" characteristics, and built artificial shrubs and ecological islands.

  Volunteers of the Beijing Swift Scientific Investigation Project found that more and more Swifts built "new homes" between the gaps of overpasses and skyscrapers. "Swift is gradually adapting to the urban life in Beijing." Zhang Liting said.

  In February this year, China officially launched the National bird migration Passage Protection Action. The National Forestry and Grassland Bureau issued the National bird migration Passage Protection Action Plan (2021— In 2035), it is clear that 1140 places such as the Ming Tombs Reservoir in Changping District of Beijing and Poyang Lake in Jiangxi Province are important breeding sites, wintering sites and migration stopovers for migratory birds.

  "With the restoration of the ecological environment and the strengthening of people’s awareness of ecological protection, I hope that in the future cities, people and birds will become the best ‘ Neighbor ’ Can live more harmoniously under the same sky. " Beijing Forestry University East Asia — Jia Yifei, a young researcher at the Australasian Migratory Bird Migration Research Center, said.

  Guarding — — Revive the migratory birds’ homes.

  Bird migration is a long and dangerous process, and the migration distance is often thousands of kilometers. From October every year to April the following year, the globally endangered species black-faced spoonbill, together with tens of thousands of migratory birds, will gather in the southeast coastal areas of China such as Funing Bay and Luoyuan Bay in Fujian for the winter.

  "It was difficult to see black-faced spoonbills before, but now they appear every year, and the number is basically stable at hundreds." Zheng Zhiwu, a senior birdwatcher in Fujian, said that the wetland environment has improved year by year, and rare birds have become "frequent visitors".

  The reporter saw in Luoyuan Bay that 10,000 mu of lush mangroves formed green waves under the sea breeze, which separated the beach where birds lived from the activity area of local residents, greatly reducing the impact of human activities on migratory birds.

  Yu Sunli, a resident near Luoyuan Bay, told reporters that local villagers have been eating the sea for generations, and aquaculture is the main industry. Improper breeding behavior once affected the habitat of local waterfowl, and the ecological balance was once destroyed.

  In order to revitalize the wetland, the local marine ecological protection and restoration projects have been implemented, and a large number of aquaculture ponds have been transformed into high-tide waterfowl habitats. Many birdwatching plank roads have also been built in nearby fishing villages, and ecological birdwatching tourism has become a "new business card" for local development.

  Yu Sunli opened a restaurant near the mangrove wetland park in Luoyuan Bay. "The ecological improvement of Luoyuan Bay in recent years has not only made it a paradise for migratory birds and bird friends, but also brought tangible benefits to our locals." Yu Sunli said.

  The development of Luoyuan Bay is a microcosm of China’s comprehensive promotion of wetland protection and restoration, from excessive demand for nature to meticulous care for nature.

  Since joining the Convention on Wetlands in 1992, China has successively passed the Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) on Wetland Protection and several local regulations on wetland protection, thus building a legal barrier for wetland protection.

  At present, there are 82 wetlands of international importance in China, ranking fourth in the world. Thirteen cities have won the title of international wetland city, and more than 600 wetland nature reserves and 900 national wetland parks have been established, with wetlands accounting for more than 50% of all nature reserves.

  "Year after year, migratory birds come back. The living environment of birds has improved, and there are more people who protect and love birds. This is the change and strength brought about by social progress. " Zheng Zhiwu said.

  Cooperation — — Beyond the time and space of fate and common.

  In the world’s busiest migratory bird lifeline — — The spoon-billed snipe is one of the rarest waterfowl on the migratory passage of birds in East Asia-Australasia. During the migration period, the snipe will stop at the Tiaozi Mud Wetland in Dongtai, Yancheng, Jiangsu Province, and Beijiatujiao, Zhanjiang, Guangdong Province to feed and molt.

  "The characteristics of migratory birds determine that their protection achievements are closely related to every link in the passage path. The East Asia-Australasia bird migration channel involves more than 20 countries and regions, and strengthening international cooperation is a must. " Guan Lei, manager of Bird Flying Project of Beijing Entrepreneur Environmental Protection Foundation, said.

  The reporter learned that at present, the protection of migratory birds’ migration routes still faces challenges such as habitat fragmentation, insufficient capital investment and imbalance between regions.

  "Only by protecting migratory birds’ habitats with the help of global forces and promoting the construction of a community of life can we provide more effective protection for migratory birds." Jia Yifei said.

  At present, China has signed bilateral agreements on the protection of migratory birds with Japan, South Korea, Australia, Russia, New Zealand and other countries, which are focusing on East Asia — Australasia Waterbird Partnership and other related content to carry out international cooperation, and actively participate in the "Belt and Road" migratory bird protection work.

  Jia Yifei introduced that in the project to save the snipe, China’s scientific research team actively participated in the investigation and protection of breeding grounds and wintering grounds in countries along the migration routes such as Russia and Myanmar, organized synchronous investigation and monitoring, carried out breeding ground management education and training, and provided expert technical services, and achieved good results.

  In 2019, the China Yellow Sea (Bohai Sea) Migratory Bird Habitat Heritage Declaration (Phase I) was officially listed in the World Heritage List, becoming one of only two intertidal wetland heritages in the world.

  Guan Lei said: "This achievement not only helps to promote the global joint protection of the East Asia-Australasia bird migration route, but also injects a strong impetus into building a community of life on earth."

  Another comfort to the guardians of migratory birds is that the younger generation is constantly joining the team of loving and protecting birds. In Beijing, Zhang Liting has an extra partner in the Swift Survey every week — — Her thirteen-year-old daughter.

  "I believe that the figure of Beijing Swift will also become a beautiful memory of the sky for the next generation." Zhang Liting said.

Beijing: It is planned to downgrade and issue a high-temperature yellow warning signal at 21: 00 on the 24th.

Approaching the 17th National Congress: the first venue in 40 years-Jingxi Hotel

Topic: Welcome to The 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China


    On March 2nd, waiters in Beijing Jingxi Hotel dressed in red greeted the delegates attending the Fifth Session of the Tenth National People’s Congress. China News Agency issued Mao Jianjun photo


    China news agency, Beijing, October 7 th Title: Guanjing West Hotel, the 40-year venue


    China News Service reporter tensor


    At the west end of Chang ‘an Avenue, opposite the CCTV building, a row of tall poplars stand side by side along the long blue glass fence, as tall as guards at the door. They jointly guard the Jingxi Hotel, which has the reputation of "the crown of the venue" in China. This hotel, which has completed dozens of people’s congresses, party congresses and central plenary sessions with high quality and high standards, was particularly eye-catching before the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.


    Coincidentally, this "old" hotel, which is closely related to China politics, celebrated its 43rd birthday before the 17th National Congress. Can not help but trigger a series of historical nostalgia.


    京西宾馆属于军队编制,归属总参谋部管理局。一九六四年建成时,北京市除北京饭店、民族饭店、前门饭店、华侨大厦外,它的建筑设备算是最好的。所以开馆伊始,一九六四年国庆节,京西宾馆就接待了阿尔及利亚、匈牙利、捷克、保加利亚、巴基斯坦、缅甸等六个国家的党政代表团和来自其他三十四个国家的六十一个专业代表团,并接待了当年十月二十日召开的第三届全国人民代表大会东北、中南、解放军三个代表团和大会的二百六十多名工作人员,此后四十几年间,全国人大几乎所有代表团都曾入住此地,包括台湾代表团。


    京西宾馆被认为是“最安全的宾馆”。据说,它的管理与保卫工作与中南海、人民大会堂和钓鱼台同等级别。在文革冲击中,由于京西宾馆的特殊身份,保护了一大批中共高级干部。


    三层的第一会议室是这座楼里最神秘的所在,因为十一届三中全会就是在这里召开的,改革开放的大政方针就是在这间会议室里确定的。京西宾馆引以为傲,毕竟,这间屋子创造了历史,改变了历史。现在这间特殊的会议室重门深锁,据说这里面翻修后仍“修旧如旧”,从椅子到喝茶的玻璃杯样式等都保持着原样。


    Because of this, Jingxi Hotel is also known as the most difficult hotel in Beijing. Identity cards and work permits are useless, and you need to have a notice of the meeting, and you have to be picked up by the conference group to get in. In addition to the uncompromising strictness, the guards on guard will definitely leave a deep impression on people with their handsome appearance and tall and mighty image.


    There are many parking spaces in the courtyard of Jingxi Hotel, and the planning is neat. In addition to the hotel building for accommodation, there is also a special conference building. In recent years, a large advertising column has been set up on the inner side of the blue glass fence, which has blown a little commercial atmosphere into this hotel with political bearing. In recent years, Jingxi Hotel has not only received important political meetings, but also started to receive some groups with relaxed content, mainly for sightseeing, although it is still not open to the public.


    The conference building of Jingxi Hotel is a Soviet-style building with solemn atmosphere. There are dozens of conference rooms of different sizes on each floor of the conference building. The long aisle is covered with thick red carpets, but most people in the past can keep quiet.  


    In 2001, Jingxi Hotel underwent a major refit, and the facilities for meetings at all levels were more perfect. In addition to the security inspection device at the entrance of the hall, each meeting room is specially equipped with a series of security facilities. Some high-level secret meetings require participants to store their mobile phones in special lockers, which can shield radio signals and ensure that the contents of the meeting will never be leaked.


    At the same time, in order to provide appropriate targeted services for various conferences, Jingxi Hotel has a special team, that is, telephone female soldiers responsible for communication security. They installed additional telephones according to the requirements of different meetings, and the indoor telephone answering and outdoor climbing lines were all completed by female soldiers. It is said that during major meetings, an operator has to answer tens of thousands of calls a day. Moreover, because some minority delegations live in Jingxi Hotel during the annual "two sessions", each of these female soldiers can speak more than a dozen dialects.


    The most popular among the guests is the dining in Jingxi Hotel, where local flavors can taste the most authentic craftsmanship. Especially during the "two sessions", representatives from the southwest like spicy food. From Laoganma in Guizhou to oily spicy food in Sichuan, restaurants only prepare seven or eight kinds of peppers. The restaurant also prepared roast whole sheep and hand-grabbed lamb chops for Xinjiang delegates, ghee and Ciba for Tibet delegates, and specially set up sugar-free seats, soft food seats and vegetarian seats to meet the needs of different delegates. However, people who are familiar with this place are told by word of mouth that the yogurt made by Jingxi Hotel is delicious.


    Now it is getting closer and closer to the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and Jingxi Hotel has also entered the preparation period before the meeting. A few days ago, ten painters from Jiangsu donated their carefully created works to Jingxi Hotel, adding new scenery to this special venue.

4 minutes will break through 10,000, and Xiaomi SU7 will brush the screen! 5,000 original editions are sold out, will you buy them?

From March 2021 to the present, the three-year contract of Xiaomi Automobile has finally arrived. On the evening of 28th, Xiaomi SU7, the first model of Xiaomi Automobile, officially announced the price: 215,900-299,900 yuan. According to Xiaomi’s official Weibo, four minutes after the price was announced, this new car broke 10,000 sets, 20,000 sets in seven minutes and 50,000 sets in 27 minutes.

There are three versions of Xiaomi SU7, namely standard version, Pro version and Max version, in which the standard version is 215,900 yuan, the Pro version is 245,900 yuan and the Max version is 299,900 yuan. In addition, there is the founding version of Xiaomi SU7 (also divided into standard version and PRO version, with the same price), with a limited edition of 5,000 units nationwide. Before April 30, the car will also be sent to the car refrigerator, luxury stereo, leather seats, etc., and the Pro version and Max version will be sent to the electric tail and plum hub respectively.

The price of Xiaomi SU7 can be said to be the biggest suspense in recent months. Since the end of last year, netizens have been speculating about it, with various prices ranging from 99,000 to 199,000 and 299,000, but Lei Jun, founder, chairman and CEO of Xiaomi, denied it.

After the price of Xiaomi SU7 was announced on the evening of 28th, netizens were still arguing endlessly. Some people say that this pricing is expected, but others say that the final pricing is higher than their own expectations. In the face of competing models such as Tesla Model 3 and Extreme Krypton 001, Xiaomi SU7 has no obvious competitive advantage. However, the Xiaomi Auto APP was opened around 10 pm on the 28th, showing that the original version of Xiaomi SU7 was sold out.

For Lei Jun, no matter what the outside world thinks, Xiaomi finally handed over his first job in the automobile industry on schedule.

At the press conference of Xiaomi’s official announcement of building a car three years ago, Lei Jun said that this was his "last venture in life" and he was willing to "put all my reputation on the line". On March 25th, he said at the Weibo that the listing of Xiaomi SU7 "is the first step of Xiaomi Automobile and the beginning of the last battle of my life." He even made it clear that the goal of Xiaomi SU7 is "the best-looking, best-driving and most intelligent car within 500,000."

215,900 started, did you guess right?

In terms of building cars, Lei Jun and the Xiaomi car he led belong to the out-and-out "rookie", but as a leading brand in the digital industry, Xiaomi understands traffic. With Lei Jun’s frequent appearance on social media, since he announced his entry into the automobile industry in 2021, almost every node of Xiaomi Automobile will attract netizens to watch whether it is production qualification or design drawings, whether it is the price of new cars or the arrival of new cars. It can be called the "traffic star" of the automobile industry.

Especially around the pricing of the first model, Xiaomi SU7, people are even more heartbroken, and various rumors are constantly emerging in the workshop, but they are all officially rumored by Xiaomi. Lei Jun even made a public statement: "The price of Xiaomi SU7 will not be 99,000, 149,000 or 199,000." He also said that "the pricing of Xiaomi SU7 is indeed a bit expensive, but it will make sense."

It seems that in order to give a shot in the arm for the higher-than-expected pricing, Lei Jun sent a message to Weibo on March 20th: "The standard version of Xiaomi SU7 is far more configured than Model 3, with solid materials and high procurement cost at the initial stage of product launch. There is indeed some pressure on pricing, I hope everyone understands. "

However, for Xiaomi SU7, its official pricing is really not easy. It is necessary to consider both its own cost and the satisfaction of rice noodles, as well as the challenge of competing products. Before the listing of Xiaomi SU7, the price war in the domestic auto market, especially in new energy vehicles, has been prolonged. Not only BYD, Tesla, Ideality and other new energy vehicle companies are involved, but also traditional joint venture vehicle companies such as Beijing Hyundai, Buick and FAW-Volkswagen’s oil vehicles and trams have frequently defended their "territory" through price adjustment. Among them, Tesla China promoted the new version of Model 3 Huan and Model Y through price reduction, subsidies and limited-time concessions for four times in a short period of three months.

In this context, it is undoubtedly a considerable challenge for Xiaomi SU7 to make its price meet the requirements of "both ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

On the evening of the 28th, as the price was announced, netizens quarreled again. Some people think that "this price can kill all sides", some people think that "this price is ok", and some people call Lei Jun, "Why not just start with 199,900 yuan?"

I don’t know what you think?

Young people’s first Porsche? Have been involved in appearance disputes.

In addition to pricing, Xiaomi SU7 triggered a hot discussion among netizens about its design.

Since the shape of Xiaomi SU7 was exposed, this car has been controversial. Although Xiaomi officially claimed that its design was inspired by "water droplets in zero gravity blown by the wind", the headlights were designed in the shape of water droplets, and the taillights were inspired by Saturn’s halo, but the appearance was very similar to that of Porsche Taycan, which was dubbed by netizens as "time-keeping meter".

What’s more, a Porsche Paramera owner in Guangxi "exploded" his car into a Xiaomi SU7, which caused onlookers and heated discussions among netizens.

However, regardless of whether Xiaomi borrowed Porsche’s design or not, the face value of Xiaomi SU7 is really attractive: the low-lying front face, penetrating taillights, semi-hidden door handles, petal-shaped wheels, colored brake calipers, electric tail fins … all of them step on the aesthetic line of young people.

Specific to the product level, Xiaomi SU7 has a length, width and height of 4,997 * 1,963 * 1,440 (1,455) mm and a wheelbase of 3,000 mm, and is positioned in a medium and large-sized pure electric car. The car is equipped with a 16.1-inch 3K central control panel, in addition to a 56-inch HUD head-up display and a 7.1-inch rollover instrument panel. The operating system of the locomotive adopts the surging OS operating system, which matches the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 cockpit chip.

In the car, Xiaomi SU7 adopts many humanized designs, such as two umbrella storage slots under the front door panel storage compartment and the rear seat, which are convenient for drivers and passengers to store umbrellas in rainy days; An ecological expansion interface is set on the instrument panel, which is convenient for inserting the mobile phone bracket; Super-large canopy glass is treated with double-layer silver plating, which effectively isolates ultraviolet rays and infrared rays (ultraviolet rays isolate 99.9% and infrared rays isolate 99.1%), avoiding the exposure experience brought by glass canopy to drivers and passengers in summer …

In terms of power, different versions of Xiaomi SU7 provide different batteries, of which the standard version uses a rear-drive 220KW motor and a 73.6KWh Ferrous lithium phosphate blade battery, and the pure battery life is 700 kilometers under CLTC working conditions; Pro version adopts rear-drive 220KW motor and 94.3kWh Ningde Shenxing iron-lithium battery, with pure battery life of 830 kilometers under CLTC working condition; Max version is equipped with four-wheel drive 495KW motor and 101kWh ternary lithium battery, and its pure battery life is 800 kilometers under CLTC working condition.

It is not easy for Xiaomi SU7 to be surrounded by "heroes".

As a high-heat model, Xiaomi SU7 has earned enough attention recently. Since March 25th, Xiaomi SU7 has started offline static car viewing in 59 stores in 29 cities across the country. It is said that all the stores are full of people, and many rice noodles are also eager to try, indicating that they will book cars as soon as the price is right.

However, it remains to be seen whether consumers will buy this "the best-looking, best-driving and most intelligent car within 500,000" in Lei Jun’s eyes. At least in many aspects, Xiaomi SU7 did not completely surpass competing products as advertised.

At present, in the range of 200,000-350,000 yuan, pure electric cars with both performance control and intelligence mainly include Tesla Model 3, Kykrypton 001, Weilai ET5 and Tucki P7. Take the new Krypton 001, which was just launched a month ago, as an example. The whole system comes standard with 800V overcharge and lidar, while the low-profile model of Xiaomi SU7 adopts 400V architecture. The Krypton 001 WE version is equipped with a 140-degree battery, and its pure battery life exceeds 1000 kilometers. In order to surpass other opponents equipped with 100-degree batteries, Xiaomi SU7 MAX version is deliberately equipped with a 101kWh battery, with a pure battery life of 800 kilometers. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 cockpit chip carried by Xiaomi SU7 has also been used in models such as Extreme Krypton 007, Extreme Yue 01, Galaxy E8 and Zero Run C10, especially the price of Geely Galaxy E8 started at 175,800 yuan.

Xiaomi SU7 claims that acceleration, steering, suspension height, suspension damping, front and rear drive distribution and kinetic energy recovery can all be adjusted, and it can be combined into as many as 1.68 billion driving modes. However, for users, too many choices are more gimmicky than practical significance. How many people really need so many driving modes? In the words of the insiders, I feel that Xiaomi is racking his brains to fight for the "first".

In addition, Xiaomi SU7 claims to be equipped with intelligent assisted driving as standard in all departments, including high-speed pilotage that can be started all over the country. However, the urban pilotage assistance (city NOA) will not be opened nationwide until August this year. Compared with Huawei, Tucki and Jiyue, which have already opened the city NOA, Xiaomi SU7 has no advantage.

In fact, many consumers are full of expectations for Xiaomi SU7 because of Lei Jun’s "full ecology of people, cars and homes". The so-called "the whole ecology of people, cars and homes", Xiaomi’s official statement is that it can link all Xiaomi intelligent terminals together, with no sense of interconnection and synergy. However, according to Lei Jun’s introduction at the press conference, the so-called millet equipment collaboration is only that all kinds of millet smart terminals at home can be displayed on cars and mobile phones, and there is not much practical significance. As for how to form an ecological circle and how to develop in the future, Lei Jun did not introduce it.

Many car buyers have previously revealed that they are optimistic about Xiaomi SU7. On the one hand, they are attracted by the product strength of Xiaomi SU7, but more importantly, they expect Xiaomi, the price killer in the field of digital products, to bring you surprise pricing, so they are all waiting to announce the price on the evening of 28th.

With the announcement of the price of millet SU7, rice noodles seem to be quite satisfied. According to the official Weibo of Xiaomi Automobile, this new car broke through 10,000 in 4 minutes, 20,000 in 7 minutes, and 50,000 in 27 minutes. The limited edition of 5,000 founding models was sold out early.

Tatum, a new clip of Hail, Caesar! and a retro poster, sings and dances.

    

    1905 movie network news The upcoming Berlin Film Festival has recently exposed two clips and two retro posters. In the clip, channing tatum and Scarlett Johansson appeared separately. Tatum sang and danced with great joy, demonstrating his good singing and dancing ability. Johnson, on the other hand, quarreled with josh brolin on the set, and the content of the quarrel was nothing more than the cliché about the marriage of men and women and the sinister content on the set. The two retro posters, with distinctive features, are easy to remind people of the famous films of Hollywood’s golden age: and.

 

    Hail, Caesar! is jointly directed by two brothers, Ethan Coen and Joel Coen, who are also writers and producers, so as to ensure that the film will continue their previous film noir style. The original script of the film is about a group of 1920s theatrical troupe actors rehearsing an ancient Roman drama, and later it is changed into a story of Hollywood in the golden age. The protagonist of the film is Eddie Mannix, who works as a private detective, dealing with all kinds of thorny problems for film companies or stars. This profession has a special name — — Hollywood "problem solver" (Fixer). In the current words, it is crisis public relations, but it has a large scale and uses unscrupulous means to track, buy and even use violence to deal with all negative news of customers. This profession has a long history, and it was born with the Hollywood star system.

 

    The works directed by the Cohen brothers have always been famous for their black style. Before that, the two men won the awards of best film, best director and best screenwriter in the 80th Oscar, which is a banner of the American independent film industry. This film has a strong cast, and josh brolin plays the leading role, that is, Eddie, the problem solver. George Clooney plays Baird Whitelock and is a movie star. Channing tatum, who can take off and dance, plays the target client of the leading actor, who is said to be a Hollywood star of gene kelly’s style, while Scarlett Johansson is probably an actress in a musical, with the shadow of esther williams, the heroine of Lotus Out of Water. Tilda Swinton plays a well-known gossip columnist and Ralph Fiennes plays a director.

 

    According to the plan, the film will be released on February 5, 2016, and then the Berlin Film Festival will open on February 11.
