Science and technology event: Apple will launch curved screen mobile phone in 2017.

     Apple will launch a curved screen phone in 2017.

  It is reported that Apple will launch a new three-piece iPhone next year, one of which is a curved screen model similar to Samsung Galaxy S7 mobile phone. According to informed sources, this curved screen model has two styles: 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch. The 5.5-inch model has a dual camera system, while the 4.7-inch model has only one lens. People familiar with the matter did not explicitly mention OLED technology, but OLED technology is essential to realize curved screens. For example, Galaxy S7 Edge uses Super AMOLED panel. It is unclear whether the other two iPhone use OLED screens or continue to use traditional low-temperature polysilicon panels.

  Amazon plans to launch discount music streaming subscription service.

  Amazon recently plans to launch a subscription service for music streaming media, which is expected to cost $4 to $5 per month, and only users of Amazon Echo speakers can enjoy this service. Prior to this, Amazon Prime already had a subscription service for music streaming media. Prime music can make users who subscribe for the whole year play songs of any singer, but the only drawback is that compared with competitors, the music catalog is slightly limited. And Echo music will improve this. Echo Music will provide advertising-free music with a wide range of directories, but it can only work on Echo speakers, and there is no way for web pages and mobile apps to play. This is a bold attempt now that mobile phones are gradually occupying the main stage in music streaming services.

  Opera will provide free VPN for Android users.

  Earlier this year, Opera brought free VPN service to IOS users. Now, the company also provides such free service to Android users, so as to provide users with a safe and pure network without advertisements. Opera VPN can help users to remove the geographical browsing restrictions of some websites for free. In addition, Opera VPN can not only block advertisements, but also allow users to change their virtual locations, prevent web pages from tracking users’ browsing content and protect users’ online privacy. It can also prevent the invasion of advertisements, but ironically, Opera has prevented the invasion of other advertisements, but it will still push advertisements to users.

  Mobileye and Delphi will jointly launch a fully self-driving system in 2019.

  Two top self-driving companies in the world will jointly launch a fully self-driving system in 2019. The two companies are Mobileye in Israel and Delphi, which is headquartered in Britain. It is reported that Mobileye has recently launched a chip supporting Tesla’s automatic driving system. Before, these two companies provided software and some self-driving systems to automobile manufacturers, but in the future, with the development of self-driving system technology independently developed by automobile manufacturers, they will face a more severe test from customers. For example, Ford announced last week that they would join hands with Israel’s SAIPS Company to make a completely self-driving system by 2021. Volvo also announced this week that they will cooperate with Uber to develop completely self-driving tools.

Qingdao: From October 15 to 31, the nucleic acid detection in the normalized area of the city was adjusted to "one check every two days"

  CCTV News:According to "Qingdao Health" WeChat official account, the Office of the Leading Group (Headquarters) of Qingdao Municipal Committee for Coordinating Epidemic Prevention and Control and Economic Operation issued a notice on October 13th. At present, the situation of epidemic prevention and control is still severe and complicated, with frequent personnel turnover and increased imported risks. In order to effectively do a good job in the work of "external defense input and internal defense rebound" in Qingdao, and better protect the health and safety of the general public, the frequency of nucleic acid detection in the normalized areas of Qingdao has been adjusted from October 15, 2022 to October 31, 2022, as decided by the municipal finger prevention research. The relevant matters are notified as follows: 

  First, the frequency of nucleic acid detection in the normalized area of the city was adjusted to "one check every two days", which was carried out every single day, and the first detection was carried out on October 15th. Participants are all residents within the jurisdiction (including permanent residents and foreigners). 

  Two, all kinds of key population detection frequency is lower than the "two-day inspection" should be carried out in accordance with the "two-day inspection", other key population in accordance with the original provisions and frequency to carry out nucleic acid testing. 

  Three, during the implementation of the policy, all kinds of public places and public transport in the city must check the negative records of nucleic acid detection for 72 hours. If there is no negative record of nucleic acid detection for more than 72 hours, the "place code" nucleic acid detection sign will change from blue to yellow, that is, "bright yellow card". 

  Four, who did not participate in nucleic acid testing as required to cause the spread of the epidemic or cause the risk of transmission, shall be investigated for legal responsibility according to the law. 

Orderly promote the trade-in of consumer goods.

Since the reform and opening up, China’s economy has grown rapidly, and people’s living consumption level has greatly improved. With the change of development stage, people’s yearning for a better life is stronger, and the demand for upgrading the stock of consumer goods is constantly improving. Promoting the trade-in of consumer goods and releasing potential consumption is conducive to the formation of a higher level of dynamic balance between demand and supply, and supply creates demand. In March, 2024, the State Council issued the Action Plan for Promoting Large-scale Equipment Renewal and Trade-in of Consumer Goods, proposing the implementation of trade-in of consumer goods.

Consumption of durable goods has shifted from incremental expansion to stock optimization.

What trade-in actions did the consumer goods market experience in the past? What is the development situation and effect?

Chen Lifen (Researcher, Institute of Market Economy, the State Council Development Research Center):The nationwide trade-in policy for consumer goods is not the first time. In order to cope with the international financial crisis in 2008 and expand consumer demand, from 2009 to 2011, China implemented a vigorous trade-in policy for household appliances and automobiles.

In 2009, the Implementation Plan for Promoting the Expansion of Domestic Demand and Encouraging the Trade-in of Automobile and Household Appliances proposed that nine provinces and cities, including Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shandong, Guangdong, Fuzhou and Changsha, should be selected to carry out the trade-in of household appliances. Since June 1, 2010, the policy of replacing old household appliances with new ones has been gradually extended to the whole country in combination with the dismantling and handling capacity of old household appliances in various regions. From this round of trade-in policy, it is mainly to stimulate the elimination and renewal potential of durable consumer goods such as household appliances and automobiles through replacement subsidies, further expand domestic demand, especially consumer demand, promote energy conservation and emission reduction, develop circular economy, and stabilize and expand employment. On the one hand, the central finance and the pilot provincial and municipal finance work together to share the subsidy funds. In terms of household appliances, the central finance and provincial finance bear 80% and 20% respectively. For automobiles, subsidies will be given to those who scrap "yellow-label vehicles" in advance and buy new ones. Local authorities can adjust the subsidy standards according to the models, years and urban management of "yellow-label vehicles". On the other hand, establish an effective incentive mechanism to stimulate consumption potential and benefit enterprises and the people. Subsidies will be given to consumers who sell five types of old household appliances, such as televisions, refrigerators, washing machines, computers and air conditioners, and buy new ones. The subsidies for buying old ones will not exceed 10% of the sales price of household appliances, and the transportation expenses will be subsidized for the old ones that are within the scope of recycling subsidies and sent to dismantling and processing enterprises.

The trade-in policy has achieved good results, and the pilot provinces and cities have initially established an integrated network system for home appliance sales, recycling and dismantling, which has obvious economic, social and resource benefits.

The first is to effectively stimulate consumption. In the 21st century, the growth rate of per capita disposable income of residents has been accelerated, the consumption power has been significantly improved, and the consumption demand of durable goods has increased. The trade-in policy has played a good "catalytic" role in stimulating the consumption growth of durable goods. Automobile-related policies continued until the end of 2010, and about 460,000 vehicles were subsidized for car trade-in, which boosted the consumption of new cars by 49.6 billion yuan. The policies related to household appliances continued until the end of 2011, and 92.48 million new household appliances in five categories were sold, which boosted direct consumption by more than 342 billion yuan, effectively releasing the consumption potential of urban residents.

The second is to promote the production and marketing of durable consumer goods and promote industrial development. In terms of home appliances, in 2011, the trade-in sales of home appliances exceeded 110 billion yuan, accounting for about 1/5 of the total sales of home appliances that year. With the policy of home appliances going to the countryside, the number of home appliances in rural areas has greatly increased. In 2012, the number of refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines and color TVs per 100 rural households increased by 41.2, 16.8, 21.3 and 22.5 respectively compared with 2007. In terms of automobiles, since China joined the World Trade Organization in 2001, the automobile industry has been steadily opening to the outside world, while private automobile enterprises have accelerated their development. In addition, residents’ income has increased substantially, and private automobile consumption has flourished. At present, some cars have reached the replacement period, there are more products to choose from in the market, and the demand for changing cars among residents has increased. In 2009, China’s automobile production and sales exceeded 10 million vehicles. According to statistics, in 2010, the number of subsidized cars was the highest, accounting for 46.4%.

The third is to promote energy conservation and emission reduction and develop circular economy. With the acceleration of industrialization and urbanization, it is urgent to change the extensive growth mode. In 2005, "Several Opinions of the State Council on Accelerating the Development of Circular Economy" was issued, proposing "to realize the unification of economic, environmental and social benefits and build a resource-saving and environment-friendly society". Thanks to the promotion of the trade-in policy, the energy efficiency of automobiles and household appliances has been significantly improved. The fuel consumption of old automobiles is 5% to 10% higher than that of new ones, and the power consumption of old household appliances is 20% to 30% higher than that of new ones.

The fourth is to stabilize and expand employment. Household appliances, automobiles and other durable consumer goods have a long industrial chain, and the trade-in policy not only promotes the development of retail industry, but also promotes the development of logistics, after-sales service, recycling and dismantling industries, which are labor-intensive industries and have strong ability to absorb employment. It is estimated that there are more than 400,000 employees who serve the trade-in of household appliances. This round of trade-in of consumer goods has effectively expanded the scale of employment.

In the new round of trade-in of consumer goods, the replacement of durable goods is still the focus of stimulating consumption potential, but different from the last round, the growth of residents’ durable goods consumption is mainly reflected in structural changes, driven by incremental expansion and more driven by stock optimization. By the end of 2023, the number of automobiles in China was 336 million, and the number of refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners and other major categories of household appliances exceeded 3 billion. There is great demand and potential for upgrading automobiles and household appliances. It is worth noting that from the situation and effect of the last round of trade-in, there are still some problems in recycling and dismantling, such as the recycling enterprises can not obtain invoices for tax deduction, the coverage of dismantling enterprises is small, and some household appliances are recycled by small vendors and then flow into the second-hand market. At present, the recycling system of household appliances, automobiles and other durable goods in China is not perfect, there are few qualified recycling enterprises, many decentralized self-employed households and a lack of professional and technical personnel, and the proportion of waste household appliances recycled through formal channels is not high. Therefore, it is very important to build a closed loop of "replacement+recycling" and improve the recycling system. The new round of trade-in of consumer goods may bring about the centralized release of demand. It is suggested to benchmark the international advanced level, give play to the leading role of standards such as energy saving, low carbon, health and safety, promote the development of industrial upgrading and consumption upgrading in the same direction, guide the updated consumption and echelon consumption in an orderly manner, and release the consumption potential continuously and stably.

Grasp the key links and make precise efforts.

Why launch a new round of consumer goods trade-in? What is the market demand and development potential of consumer goods in China?

Wei Qijia (Director and Researcher, Industrial Economics Research Office, Economic Forecasting Department, National Information Center):Looking at the trade-in of consumer goods should not be limited to the consumer goods themselves, but should be understood from the perspective of economic cycle. Carrying out a new round of trade-in of consumer goods accurately and orderly is an important measure to expand effective demand and smooth the cycle of supply and demand. The implementation of this policy is conducive to the formation of a virtuous circle of mutual promotion of consumption and investment, and the realization of benefiting enterprises and the people.

It is timely to promote a new round of trade-in of consumer goods. After the smooth transition of epidemic prevention and control, consumption recovery needs a process, and it can get twice the result with half the effort to really boost consumption from the needs of thousands of households. The data shows that by the end of 2023, the number of cars in China reached 336 million, and the number of household appliances in major categories such as refrigerators, washing machines and air conditioners exceeded 3 billion. According to this volume estimate, the upgrading of automobiles and household appliances is expected to create a market space of one trillion yuan. In terms of related consumption potential and growth rate, in the first quarter of this year, the retail sales of consumer goods such as household appliances and audio-visual equipment were 205.3 billion yuan, up 5.8% year-on-year, the retail sales of sports and entertainment products were 30.7 billion yuan, up 14.2% year-on-year, and the retail sales of automobiles were 1,116.3 billion yuan, up 3.8% year-on-year. From the perspective of absolute quantity and growth rate, these consumer goods have a large market space. If the policy can play a better role, it will be able to release huge demand and play a more significant role in supporting and promoting economic growth. From a broader perspective, as the economy stabilizes and rebounds, the consumption growth potential will be further released. At present, accelerating the trade-in of consumer goods will help stimulate consumption potential. The data shows that the total retail sales of consumer goods in the first quarter of this year exceeded 12 trillion yuan, up 4.7% year-on-year, and there is still room for improvement. The recovery of consumption is a slow variable, but the trend of accelerating recovery is emerging.

The new round of trade-in of consumer goods focuses on the fields of automobiles, household appliances, home improvement, kitchen and bathroom, which is closely related to the development stage of China’s economy. The data shows that the urbanization rate of permanent residents is 66.2% in 2023, but the urbanization rate of registered population is less than 50%. The urbanization process is progressing steadily, and the consumer market still has great potential. At the present stage, consumers’ demand for automobiles, home appliances and home improvement kitchens and bathrooms has a large room for growth. Promoting trade-in in these areas can boost consumption and help improve the consumption environment. From the perspective of industrial development, on the one hand, it provides a driving force for the convergence of production and demand, keeping inventory and sales in a dynamic balance, on the other hand, it is conducive to broadening the sales channels of energy-saving products and further enhancing their market share. Recycling is an important focus of industrial green development. Trade-in of consumer goods will innovate and enrich application scenarios and promote high-quality economic development.

Promoting a new round of trade-in of consumer goods is a systematic project, which requires precise efforts in policy and a good grasp of the three key links of "standard clearance", "capital clearance" and "operation clearance".

"Standard Pass" emphasizes the leading role of highlighting standards. Reasonable standards can promote the healthy development of the industry and promote the improvement of product quality, while backward standards are not conducive to product upgrading. For consumer goods, standards are very important. Taking the automobile industry as an example, the mandatory scrapping standards for motor vehicles and the vehicle safety and environmental protection inspection standards are directly related to the cycle of automobile product upgrading, involving equipment safety issues, and need to form a long-term mechanism conducive to the implementation of standards. Taking home appliances as an example, energy consumption standards affect the product system construction of the whole industry. Only when the relevant standards are dynamically updated can the preferential policies related to the buyer play an effective role. In addition to "hard standards", "soft standards" are also indispensable. For example, the definition of recycling valuation needs a frame of reference, a reference object, and a clear calculation process and standards, so as to promote the smooth operation of all aspects of trade-in.

"Capital Pass" emphasizes the optimization of various financial support methods. Financial support is not "flood irrigation", it is not for the sake of support, and it must be accurate and effective. For the trade-in of consumer goods to be supported, it is necessary to comprehensively calculate the amount and proportion of financial support from various information resources and set a reasonable range. For example, the insurance premium rate of new energy vehicles and the down payment ratio of automobile consumption loans all have the problem of optimizing the ratio and effect. Setting a suitable ratio is conducive to the healthy development of the industry. At the same time, we should define the source of funds. Some need financial support, but it doesn’t mean that financial funds can do everything. It is suggested to guide producers to make a balanced calculation according to sales quantity, pricing and profit, and promote trade-in by flexibly adjusting prices.

"Operation Pass" emphasizes the cooperation of the whole chain, such as dismantling and recycling, construction of the main body of operation and after-sales service. From the perspective of policy promotion and implementation, the above link is the "last mile" and will promote the full release of policy dividends. The whole chain link involved in trade-in has a complete and relatively independent internal system, so how to achieve connectivity, penetration, specialization and standardization of the operating subject is very important. It is suggested that by cultivating specialized enterprises, the closed-loop circulation of second-hand goods can be realized, the integration of resources in the whole chain can be promoted, and the after-sales service level can be brought into the big network of trade-in, which will form a strong traction for the accurate and orderly development of trade-in business.

Multi-measures to stimulate consumption vitality and achieve remarkable results

What measures have been taken by various localities to support trade-in? What are the bottlenecks to form the scale effect of upgrading?

Yi Shaohua (Director and Researcher, national academy of economic strategy Market Circulation and Consumption Research Office):With the steady improvement of China’s economic development level and the increasing consumption power of residents, higher requirements are put forward for the quality of consumer goods, and the focus of consumption has changed from survival to development. In the field of physical commodity consumption, some consumer goods markets, represented by automobiles and household appliances, have entered the stage of paying equal attention to stock and increment from the incremental stage. By exchanging the old for the new, it can not only stimulate potential consumption, but also better meet the people’s needs for a better life and form a virtuous circle of mutual promotion of consumption and investment.

At present, the trade-in of consumer goods mainly includes durable consumer goods, bulk consumer goods, such as household appliances, electronic products, automobiles, etc., and joint promotion activities are carried out through government support and profit-making by enterprises. Encouraged by policies, various localities have stimulated consumption vitality and facilitated consumer groups in various ways, and achieved positive results.

Jiangbei New District, Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province, combined with Nanjing International Consumer Festival (Spring) activities, with the theme of "revitalizing the new season", distributed a total of 10 million yuan of automobile consumption subsidies. The Municipal Bureau of Commerce cooperated with two leading enterprises, Suning.cn and JD.COM, to carry out home appliance trade-in activities. JD.COM Wuxing Electric Co., Ltd., in conjunction with the head brand of household appliances, will increase subsidies for trade-in for air conditioners, color TVs, cooking stoves, digital mobile phones and other categories, with a maximum subsidy of 4,000 yuan for a single unit; Suning.cn provides free door-to-door, disassembly, handling and other services, making it more convenient for consumers to replace their home appliances.

The Department of Commerce of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region arranged 16 million yuan to carry out the subsidy activity of replacing old household appliances with new ones. By means of government subsidies, business concessions and platform support, the channel of industry cooperation was opened through the renovation of second-hand houses and old residential quarters, and the home improvement business was catalyzed by home appliance resources, thus promoting the upgrading of home appliances. Take Liuzhou as an example, the city provides diversified supplies and services according to the differentiated needs of consumers, providing consumers with one-stop transformation services of personalized design, garbage removal and preferential replacement, which directly promotes the release of household appliances consumption demand.

Shenyang City, Liaoning Province, through the joint subsidy of home appliance sales enterprises and manufacturers, increased the intensity of trade-in. At the same time, it organized home appliance distribution enterprises to join community streets to carry out trade-in public welfare activities, and provided services such as free cleaning and free testing of home appliances for special people. Hainan Province subsidizes the scrapping and replacement of old cars and the purchase of green household appliances, organizes household appliance enterprises in the province to carry out trade-in activities, encourages tax-free enterprises to give preferential benefits, and forms a multi-party linkage promotion trend. In terms of home improvement and kitchen renovation, Hunan Province has carried out activities such as home rejuvenation season, home improvement consumption festival and home consumption festival, and built 100 green, intelligent and aging-suitable model rooms in the province, taking the model rooms as a demonstration to lead the home improvement and renovation activities, so that consumers can feel the charm of smart life on the spot.

Of course, there are still some bottlenecks that need to be broken.

First, the innovation of financial instruments is insufficient, and the profit margin of enterprises is limited. Trade-in of consumer goods involves a wide range, showing the characteristics of long cycle and large span. It is difficult to achieve it by the enterprise itself. It needs to be supported by fiscal and taxation policies and financial instrument innovation to ease the financial pressure of enterprises and release policy dividends. At present, some financial institutions have made useful explorations in this regard. For example, Fujian Branch of China Construction Bank launched the "five new" measures to update financial support equipment and trade-in consumer goods from the aspects of support equipment, product innovation, consumption scenarios, preferential activities and policy guidance, which effectively improved the quality and efficiency of financial services, helped expand domestic demand and promoted consumption.

Second, it is necessary to find the right entry point to stimulate consumers to change their motivation. Although residents have a demand for upgrading consumer goods, there are many influencing factors. Durable consumer goods such as household appliances are large-sized goods, and the price of a single product is high. Most consumers rarely change their products when they can use them. Even if there are some price concessions, most people are difficult to put them into action. At present, the recycling price of old household appliances, old furniture and other items is low, which is far from consumers’ psychological expectations, and has also become one of the factors affecting trade-in. It is still a challenge to push consumers to turn potential demand into real demand and make them willing to change and actively change.

Third, the recycling system of used household appliances needs to be improved. In the process of releasing the demand for the replacement of household appliances, the recycling of waste household appliances is facing difficulties. Some household appliances and furniture manufacturers give up recycling related products because of the high recycling cost. At the same time, factors such as the lack of storage space for waste goods and the difficulty of recycling vehicles entering the city have also restricted the expansion of the market scale of household appliances and furniture. It is suggested to build a regional transfer station for waste household appliances in a suitable place, collect waste household appliances and furniture at home through platforms, merchants and third-party resources, and transport them to the dismantling site. At the same time, home appliance manufacturers are encouraged to build a recycling system of "recycling-dismantling-regeneration-remanufacturing" to achieve green and low-carbon development.

Let the recycling of old goods be efficient and smooth

How to realize efficient recycling of old goods with new ones?

Peng Bo (researcher, Institute of International Trade and Economic Cooperation, Ministry of Commerce):In March 2024, the State Council issued the Action Plan for Promoting Large-scale Equipment Renewal and Trade-in of Consumer Goods (hereinafter referred to as the Action Plan). According to the Action Plan, the replaced consumer goods can be recycled efficiently through the circulation of second-hand goods, remanufacturing, step-by-step utilization and recycling.

The Action Plan proposes to support the circulation of second-hand commodities. The complete automobile market includes new car and used car market, and the trading volume of used cars in major developed countries exceeds that of new cars. By the end of 2023, China’s car ownership reached 336 million, with 34.8 million newly registered motor vehicles, and the cumulative transaction volume of used cars nationwide was 18.4133 million, up 14.88% year-on-year. In terms of export, the export volume of used cars in China exceeded 100,000 vehicles in 2023, accounting for only 2% of the total export scale of 4.91 million vehicles. Most of them are parallel export vehicles, and the used car market has broad development potential.

The market potential of second-hand electronic products is huge. Apple once launched the iPhone trade-in business in the United States. Consumers can exchange old iPhones for certain points in the Apple Store and offset them when buying a new generation of mobile phones. In recent years, China’s mobile phone and home appliance market is developing with each passing day, product updating iteration is fast, and consumer demand is growing rapidly. The data shows that in 2023, China’s total mobile phone shipments totaled 289 million units, and the idle amount of used mobile phones increased year by year. It is estimated that the total idle amount will reach 6 billion units during the 14 th Five-Year Plan period. Trade-in will accelerate the update iteration of mobile phone production, and the electronic product industry will usher in greater development space.

Second-hand furniture transactions continue to develop. According to the survey data of Beijing Municipal Bureau of Statistics, among more than 3,000 citizens who participated in the survey, 11.1% of the respondents abandoned large furniture in 2023, and 46.5% of them chose to sell waste products. Furniture with good color and brand will usually be sent to the second-hand market for resale, among which solid wood and second-hand furniture with certain collection value are relatively popular.

The Action Plan proposes to promote remanufacturing and step-by-step utilization in an orderly manner. This requirement also applies to consumer goods. The earliest "remanufacturing" appeared in the 1930s. In 2010, the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments jointly issued "Opinions on Promoting the Development of Remanufacturing Industry", which proposed that remanufacturing can save energy by 60%, materials by 70% and costs by 50% compared with manufacturing new products, and almost no solid waste is produced, and the emission of air pollutants is reduced by more than 80%. At present, the market size of the global remanufacturing industry has exceeded 150 billion US dollars. The annual output value of China’s remanufacturing industry has exceeded 100 billion yuan, making it one of the largest remanufacturing markets in the world.

The price of engine remanufactured products of Jinan Fuqiang Power Co., Ltd. is only 75% of the original price of new products. If the old engine is exchanged for remanufactured products, it can also offset 25% of the price. BYD is committed to the production of new energy vehicles, and attaches great importance to the remanufacturing and cascade utilization of automotive power batteries. When the available capacity of the power battery is 60% to 80%, which can not meet the use requirements, the waste power battery will be recycled for testing and maintenance, and then sent to the power and communication fields for building energy storage power stations after reorganization; When the available capacity of the power battery is further attenuated to 20% to 60%, it can be recycled and disassembled into single batteries for solar street lamps, UPS power supplies and other small energy storage tools. When the usable capacity decays to less than 20%, it will be scrapped, from which useful chemical components and metal elements will be extracted and recovered for the production of new power batteries. Gemei is one of the leading enterprises to recycle electronic wastes and used batteries economically and on a large scale, and has built a life cycle value chain from recycling, remanufacturing to step-by-step utilization to ensure the efficient recycling of used power batteries.

The Action Plan proposes to promote high-level recycling of resources. Improving the ability and level of resource recycling can significantly reduce the demand for primary resources and reduce the pressure of mineral resources exploitation on the natural environment.

According to the statistics of China Renewable Resources Recycling Association, in 2023, the amount of scrapped cars increased by 7.56 million, up by 32%, the amount of recycled furniture exceeded 200 million, the total amount of recycled household appliances reached 4.5 million tons, and the amount of discarded mobile phones could reach more than 400 million every year. It is estimated that after a scrapped small car is finely disassembled, it can decompose about 36 kilograms of rubber, 70 kilograms of plastic, 740 kilograms of scrap iron and 100 kilograms of aluminum; An ordinary refrigerator can recover 9 kilograms of plastic, 38.6 kilograms of iron and 1.4 kilograms of copper; One ton of used mobile phones can extract 400 grams of gold and 2300 grams of silver.

Miluo City, Hunan Province has gathered more than 100 enterprises specializing in the treatment of used household appliances, forming a relatively complete industrial chain, and nearly 10,000 tons of usable substances are obtained after recycling and dismantling used household appliances every day. Among them, recycled metals are sold to auto parts manufacturers in this city for reproduction, which is environmentally friendly and reduces production costs. Haier Group practices the concept of sustainable development, supports the green and sustainable development of the whole industrial chain, and builds the industry’s first home appliance recycling interconnected factory integrating "recycling-dismantling-recycling-reuse", covering three systems of recycling, dismantling and recycling, and has customized six dismantling lines for used household appliances, one cleaning and sorting line for recycled plastics and 13 high-quality recycling new material granulation lines. At present, the factory has an annual dismantling capacity of 2 million sets of waste household appliances and a recycling capacity of 30,000 tons of recycled materials.

Multiple signal towers were vandalized! Where did the rumor "5G spreading virus" come from?

  Although officials and scientists have voiced their voices and made it clear that the idea of linking the new coronavirus with 5G is "complete nonsense", it does not seem to prevent rumors from continuing to be sought after.

  The latest news is that after Britain, there have also been incidents in the Netherlands where 5G signal towers were set on fire and vandalized. Some people even planned to hold a larger-scale protest against 5G on Easter on April 12th through social media.

  Some British mobile operators said that under the influence of conspiracy theories, some telecom employees have been threatened.

  one

  On April 10th, local time, the signal tower in the northern Dutch city of Groningen was set on fire.

  According to Dutch media reports, at least six signal towers were set on fire and destroyed. In the past week, there have been four similar incidents in the Netherlands.

  In Europe, similar incidents appeared in Britain earlier.

  On April 2, local time, a 21-meter-high mobile signal tower in Birmingham, England was set on fire, and firefighters put out the fire after two hours. The next day, a 5G signal tower in Merseyside was also set on fire … …

  The Guardian reported that at least 20 cell phone base towers were deliberately set on fire or vandalized.

  In this regard, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) said that two consecutive incidents of burning mobile signal towers coincided with the widespread spread of the "unfounded" conspiracy theory that "5G caused the spread of Covid-19".

  The British "Daily Mail" bluntly said that these incidents were related to the rumor that "5G network spread Covid-19".

  In fact, there are not a few people who believe and spread the rumor that "5G leads to Covid-19" on social networks in Europe and America, and even many celebrities participate in it.

  In response to various rumors since the outbreak, a research institute of Oxford University found that 20% of Covid-19 rumors were spread by celebrities or politicians, and their content published on social media accounted for nearly 70% of the total content published.

  As you can imagine, once the star politicians with hundreds of millions of fans spread rumors, their "influence" is equally huge.

  two

  Tracing back to the origin of this absurd statement, it may first come from a health summit held in Arizona on March 12th, USA, in which a doctor named Thomas Cowen claimed that 5G caused the spread of Covid-19.

  He even argued that there was no outbreak in Africa because there was no 5G there.

  This rumor has been widely circulated in the United States, forwarded by many celebrities and spread to more western countries.

  With the increase of confirmed cases in Africa, this statement was quickly "slapped". However, the spread of this conspiracy theory by foreign social media has not stopped, and many statements have been deduced … …

  Rumors are flying all over the sky, which also makes some people smell business opportunities.

  A British company claims that it has developed a product that can prevent 5G radiation and protect users from Covid-19. Each product costs as much as 350 pounds.

  In this regard, the four major telecom operators in the UK issued a joint statement refuting the relevant statements, arguing that the conspiracy theory linking the 5G signal base station with the spread of Covid-19 is dangerous and false information, which is totally wrong.

  The BBC’s "fact check" column also interviewed a number of scientists, clearly indicating that the idea of linking the new coronavirus with 5G is "complete nonsense", without any basis and biologically impossible.

  British officials later came forward and pointed out that this "conspiracy theory" is completely nonsense.

  three

  In fact, anti-5G organizations have always existed abroad, but why is this reaction so fierce?

  In this regard, some media articles pointed out that on the one hand, the COVID-19 epidemic spread, and related topics naturally attracted high attention; On the other hand, rumors can spread quickly, which also reflects the social panic behind them.

  Christian Lindemeyer, a spokesman for the World Health Organization, once said that people should treat Covid-19 rationally and not panic.

  But it is easier said than done. In reality, many people hold the attitude of "believing what is there, not believing what is not" to some rumors, and intentionally or unintentionally become the disseminators of rumors.

  As this newspaper has reported before, every time a disaster or major public health incident breaks out, there will be irrational behaviors caused by various rumors:

  Net-transmitted granite can prevent Covid-19 from being infected, causing netizens to rush to buy it; Others believe that drinking alcohol can prevent the virus … …

  Fortunately, many social media have recognized the harm caused by the spread of related rumors and taken action.

  Facebook said it would delete those remarks that "may cause harm to the real world" and would check the authenticity of other related remarks.

  YouTube, a video website, also said that videos linking 5G and COVID-19 would be removed because they "quoted unconfirmed medical content".

  Disaster can test human nature best. What is more terrible than the spread of the virus is the layers of fermentation of false information and the rapid spread of panic.

  As WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said, in the global fight against the COVID-19 epidemic, "facts are needed, not fears", "science is needed, not rumors" and "unity is needed, not stigma".

  Obviously, the campaign against false information and rumors is equally important in the global fight against the COVID-19 epidemic.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs: Sanctions will be imposed on American institutions and individuals who have behaved badly in Xinjiang-related issues.

  Cctv newsOn July 9th, the State Council and the Treasury Department of the United States announced that they would impose sanctions on a Xinjiang, China government agency and four officials according to the domestic laws of the United States. In response, Zhao Lijian, spokesman of China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, expressed firm opposition and strong condemnation at today’s (10th) press conference, and announced that reciprocal measures would be taken against relevant American institutions and individuals who behaved badly on Xinjiang-related issues.

  Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Zhao LijianThe above-mentioned actions of the US side seriously interfere in China’s internal affairs, seriously violate the basic norms of international relations and seriously damage Sino-US relations. China resolutely opposes this and strongly condemns it. In response to the wrong actions of the United States, China decided to take reciprocal measures against relevant American institutions and individuals who behaved badly on Xinjiang-related issues. Xinjiang affairs are purely China’s internal affairs, and the US has no power and is not qualified to interfere.

  Zhao Lijian emphasized that the China government is determined to defend the interests of national sovereignty, security and development, to crack down on violent, separatist and religious extremist forces, and to oppose any external interference in Xinjiang affairs and China’s internal affairs.

  Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Zhao LijianWe urge the US to immediately revoke the wrong decision and stop any words and deeds that interfere in China’s internal affairs and harm China’s interests. If the US persists in its actions, China will resolutely fight back.

Pictures fromWechat WeChat official account "semiconductor industry observation"

In daily life, we can find the types of chips, such as communication chips, artificial intelligence chips, LED chips, computer chips and so on.

Industrial chain of chipsHere’s the thing:

According to the industrial chain division, the core link of the chip from design to factory mainly includes six parts:

(1) Design softwareChip design software is a key tool for chip companies to design chip structures. At present, the structural design of chips mainly depends on EDA (Electronic Design Automation) software.

(2) instruction set systemFrom a technical point of view, the CPU is only a high collection of millions of small switches, without an efficient instruction set system, the chip can not run the operating system and software;

(3) Chip design, mainly connected to the interface of electronic products and services;

(4) Manufacturing equipment, that is, the equipment for producing chips;

(5) Round crystal OEMThe wafer foundry is the production workshop of chips from drawings to products, which determines the performance indexes such as nano-technology adopted by chips;

(6) Packaging test, which is the last link before the chip is sold, is mainly aimed at ensuring the quality of the product and has relatively low technical requirements.

Overall, inIn most industries such as instruction set and design, the status of China chip industry is very weak.There is a big gap between China and European and American chip industry enterprises. However, in the sectors with relatively low technical requirements, such as wafer foundry, packaging and testing, is expected to take the lead in rising and become a field that is expected to catch up with the world average.

Juvenile online shopping simulation gun was seized by customs and sentenced to life imprisonment for the crime of smuggling weapons.

  Zhangzhou, China, April 15 (Reporter Bai Jiege) According to the Voice of China report, people who have played real CS are no strangers to simulation guns. However, a Fujian teenager never imagined that an online shopping brought him jail. Two years ago, 18-year-old Xiao Liu bought 24 "simulation guns" online from a seller in Taiwan Province, but they were seized by the customs. After identification, 20 of them turned out to be guns.

  In August 2014, he was sentenced to life imprisonment for the crime of smuggling weapons. The court held that buying and selling simulation guns was prohibited by law, and the smuggled simulation guns were identified as guns, which constituted the crime of smuggling weapons, and the circumstances were particularly serious.

  Although it is final, lawyers believe that the details of the purchase link are still controversial. This week, the Higher People’s Court of Fujian Province has filed a case for review. So, how did the simulation gun become a real gun?

  The last time Ms. Hu saw her son Xiao Liu was on March 20th this year. She visited Zhangzhou Prison in Fujian once a month. Ms. Hu said that he was very pessimistic. He always feels that he has been sentenced to life imprisonment, and no matter how good his performance is, he will be about our age.

  In 2014, at the age of 18, Xiao Liu bought 24 "BB guns for survival games" from a seller in Taiwan Province through the Internet in his hometown in Sichuan, with a total price of 30,540 yuan.

  Ms. Hu said that she knew that he had discussed with herself, "He likes to play this game. We also told him at that time, so just buy one or two, not so many. He told us that if one or two were delivered in Taiwan Province, it would take 30,000 yuan to deliver the goods."

  Xiao Liu didn’t get these guns, but waited for the customs staff at home: "The money was later returned. I heard that the seller told my son that this thing was detained by the customs and I will return the money to you." Ms. Hu said that it took more than a month from buying things to returning money, and it took more than half a month for people who came to the customs to go home.

  Ms. Hu said that at first they didn’t realize the seriousness of the problem: "Because they didn’t receive anything, they didn’t see anything. We think it may be closed at most and will be released in a few months. "

  On September 29th, 2014, Xiao Liu was arrested on suspicion of smuggling weapons. On April 30 last year, he was sentenced to life imprisonment by the Intermediate People’s Court of Quanzhou City, Fujian Province for smuggling weapons. On August 25, the Higher People’s Court of Fujian Province rejected the appeal and upheld the original judgment.

  Lawyer Xu Xin, a professor at Beijing Institute of Technology Law School, became Xiao Liu’s defender after this. Last November, he met with Xiao Liu: "His state is very bad, and he feels very wronged and incomprehensible. He said that he just had such a hobby, and he was suddenly sentenced, and it was life imprisonment. He felt that life was hopeless and desperate. "

  Combined with the materials written by Xiao Liu, Xu Xin filed a plea of innocence with the Higher People’s Court of Fujian Province: the main reason for making a plea of innocence is very sufficient, because one of the biggest problems found in the process of studying this case is that it is very likely that his simulation gun was not bought by the party concerned.

  Xu Xin said that the judgments in the first and second instance only proved that Xiao Liu was shopping with a seller named "Blue Sea and Blue Sky" and that a couple from Taiwan Province delivered goods to Xiao Liu, but it could not prove that the couple from Taiwan Province were "Blue Sea and Blue Sky": "The key problem is that the guns he bought are different from the guns he was detained at last. The biggest difference is that the four long guns he bought are all rechargeable, but all the detained guns are inflatable."

  Xu Xin also questioned some evidence in the judgments of the first and second instance. He said that Xiao Liu only bought a toy gun, and there was no subjective intention and no harm: he bought a gun for his own fun and collection, and subjectively there was no criminal intention. And objectively, he didn’t commit a crime. He didn’t get the gun at all, and objectively, he didn’t receive it.

  For a non-standard gun that can’t fire standard ammunition, it also looks like a gun. Is it a real gun or a simulation gun in law? In the "Regulations on Performance Appraisal of Firearms and Ammunition Involved by Public Security Organs" issued by the Ministry of Public Security of China in 2001, the judgment standard is to shoot with a dry pine board with a thickness of 25.4mm, and the muzzle is 1 meter away from the board. If the warhead penetrates this pine board, it is judged that this gun is enough to cause death; The bullet or shrapnel stuck on the pine board, which proves that the gun is enough to hurt people. The above two cases are identified as guns, that is, real guns. In 2010, the Ministry of Public Security revised the "Work Regulations", which did not mention the identification method of this experiment, but clearly stated that the muzzle specific kinetic energy of the projectile fired was greater than or equal to 1.8 Joule/cm2, and it was all recognized as a gun. In 2007, the related Standards for Identification of Simulation Guns and Criteria for Forensic Scientific Appraisal of Guns’ Injuries have already mentioned the demarcation value of 1.8 Joules/cm2, which is based on the fact that it can affect the most vulnerable part of human body — — Bare eyes cause minor injuries, but they cannot penetrate the skin.

  The change of this standard has caused controversy. Xiao Liu’s defense lawyer Xu Xin said: "His case involves the biggest problem, and it is also the biggest motivation for me to pay attention to this case because it involves more and more ordinary people. Because of the current identification of China simulation gun, the standard for identifying it as a real gun is very low, that is, the muzzle specific kinetic energy is 1.8 Joule/cm2, which is equivalent to one-ninth of the standard in 2001, which is much lower than the old standard. Only one red dot can appear at close range, and the skin can’t be injured. "

  According to the inquiry of Zhu Zhengfu, a member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, the standard for determining the lethality of firearms in Japan and Taiwan Province is 20 Joules/cm2, which is 11 times that of the current standard of China Ministry of Public Security. Therefore, guns that are legal toys in neighboring countries and regions will be identified as "guns with China characteristics" as soon as they enter the country, and the punishment for the relevant parties will be the same as the real gun case. Therefore, in the proposal of the National People’s Congress this year, Zhu Zhengfu proposed to re-examine the relevant gun identification standards.

  In order to visit his son and complain about his case, Xiao Liu’s parents left their hometown in Sichuan and went to work in Fujian. Xiao Liu’s mother, Ms. Hu, said that they had been unable to contact the sellers in Taiwan Province after the incident. She learned this week that the Fujian Provincial High Court has filed a case review of Xiao Liu’s case.

  Some media also quoted the relevant person in charge of the Fujian Provincial High Court to confirm this statement.

It is related to your "buy buy Buy", and the central government has made many favorable measures.

  The State Council, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China recently issued "Several Opinions on Improving the System and Mechanism of Promoting Consumption and Further Stimulating the Consumption Potential of Residents".
