　　The Ministry of Environmental Protection recently announced that the fourth batch of central environmental protection inspectors have completed the work of stationing inspectors in eight provinces including Jilin, Zhejiang and Shandong. During this period, 8 provinces interviewed 4210 people due to environmental problems and held 5763 people accountable.

　　From the end of 2015, when the central environmental protection inspector visited Hebei as a pilot, the storm of environmental accountability set off in various places and covered 31 provinces across the country, and more than 15,000 people have been held accountable.

　　Inspectors cover 31 provinces and have more than 15,000 people accountable.

　　Environmental protection inspector is an important institutional arrangement for environmental protection in recent years. In July 2015, the 14th meeting of the Central Deep Reform Group reviewed and approved the Environmental Protection Supervision Scheme (Trial), and clearly established the environmental protection supervision mechanism.

　　The inspector’s "first sword" refers to Hebei, where environmental problems were prominent at that time. At the end of 2015, the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group was stationed in Hebei to carry out the pilot inspection. Subsequently, the environmental storm was continuously pushed to the whole country.

　　In July 2016, the first batch of eight central environmental protection inspectors stationed in Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Henan, Guangxi, Yunnan and Ningxia; In November 2016, the second batch of 7 inspectors inspected Beijing, Shanghai, Hubei, Guangdong, Chongqing, Shaanxi and Gansu; In April 2017, the third batch of 7 inspectors inspected Tianjin, Shanxi, Liaoning, Anhui, Fujian, Hunan and Guizhou; In August 2017, the fourth batch of inspectors successively stationed in Jilin, Zhejiang, Shandong, Hainan, Sichuan, Tibet, Qinghai and Xinjiang (including the Corps).

　　So far, in more than two years, the environmental storm has covered 31 provinces without dead ends. Many people regard inspectors as "scraping bones to cure poison". "It turns out that pollution control is like slapping. This time, I feel that the knife is really on my neck." A company said that if environmental protection is not up to standard, it will "die miserably".

　　Many experts believe that environmental protection inspectors not only inspect enterprises, but more importantly supervise the "government", and the environmental storm drives the accountability storm. According to the inspectors’ feedback released by the Ministry of Environmental Protection, there are more than 15,000 environmental protection inspectors in China.

　　The people have actually felt the real changes in environmental protection, and more and more people have taken the initiative to provide clues to the inspector group. The data shows that the first batch of central environmental protection inspectors sent letters and calls to the local people to report 13 thousand pieces; The second batch exceeded 15,000 pieces; The third batch of 31,000 pieces; The fourth batch of nearly 40,000 pieces … …

　　Inspectors found that four types of problems were prominent in various places.

　　— — Environmental protection makes way for the economy, and cadres’ thoughts are "smog".

　　The heavy chemical industry accounts for a large proportion in Guanzhong area of Shaanxi Province, but in recent years, a large number of high-pollution projects are still being built and expanded, which not only aggravates regional air pollution, but also brings a heavy burden to the future industrial structure adjustment. Behind this is that some places are still "talking about heroes with GDP" when formulating assessment objectives and tasks. The inspector group found in Hebei, Anhui and other places that the weight of eco-environmental indicators had declined in the performance appraisal of local governments’ target management. Jingmen, Qianjiang and other places in Hubei even listed the completion of the investment promotion task as the "one-vote veto" item of the annual evaluation by the environmental protection department.

　　The "smog" of party and government leadership thoughts in some places is even more serious than reality. The inspector group pointed out that some grassroots leading cadres in Beijing are used to blaming environmental problems on objective reasons in their ideological understanding; In Inner Mongolia, the Standing Committee of the Party Committee of half of the League cities rarely studies environmental protection, and some even have not studied environmental protection issues for one year.

　　— — The pollution problem is "not exposed and not solved" and the governance is "opportunistic".

　　The site selection of garbage disposal facilities in Chaoyang District, Shantou City, Guangdong Province has been changed three times in three years, and it has not yet started when the inspection team is stationed. Liujia Wharf Village in Beichen District, Tianjin has gathered nearly 1,000 waste recycling workshops, and accumulated a large amount of garbage, muck and sewage, which has not been solved for a long time. It was not until April 2017 that the Ministry of Environmental Protection inspected and was exposed by the media that it was rectified.

　　Others are eager for quick success and instant benefit, resulting in money spent and work done, but the effect is minimal. Tianjin Binhai New Area and wuqing district have taken utilitarian measures such as controlling traffic flow and increasing the number of washing and cleaning in the surrounding areas of air quality automatic monitoring stations.

　　— — Report data "fiddling" and monitor data fraud.

　　From 2013 to 2015, the Development and Reform Commission of Hebei Province basically did not conduct on-site verification on the storage projects of reduced steel production capacity reported by cities, and some storage equipment was still in production. Relevant personnel in Chang ‘an District and yanliang district City of Xi ‘an are not aware of the bottom line of environmental protection. They artificially interfere with the normal operation of the national air quality monitoring substation and falsify the air quality monitoring data.

　　— — Environmental problems in nature reserves and key river basins are outstanding.

　　Qilian Mountain is an important barrier for ecological security in northwest China. After the State Council approved the adjustment of the demarcation of protected areas in 2014, Gansu Provincial Department of Land and Resources still approved and extended 9 mining rights and 5 exploration rights in protected areas in violation of laws and regulations. Dulbert County, anniversary City, Heilongjiang Province illegally implemented a development project in Zhalong National Nature Reserve, resulting in the destruction of more than 10,000 mu of wetlands in the reserve. Due to the local illegal occupation of the lake for tourism development, the lakeside wetland in Chaohu, Anhui Province was destroyed, and the water quality of the Shiwuli River entering the lake was inferior to five categories for a long time.

　　Rebuilding the bottom line of environmental protection red line to prevent "one size fits all" and "one gust of wind"

　　Over the past two years, with the sword of environmental protection, a series of gratifying changes are taking place.

　　The local government’s awareness of environmental protection red line has been greatly enhanced, and the transformation of local industries has also been upgraded and accelerated. As the "first stop" of the central environmental protection inspector, Hebei has investigated and rectified more than 80,000 "scattered pollution" enterprises this year. Among them, Wen ‘an County, one of the domestic plywood production bases, stopped production and rectified more than 7,000 wood-based panel enterprises. After the integration, all 200 enterprises reached the standard, the number of enterprises was reduced to one tenth, but the output value and tax payment doubled.

　　With the continuous implementation of the new development concept, all localities have improved the system of assessment and accountability of cadres, and put on a spell for party and government cadres. Hegang, Heilongjiang Province, incorporated environmental protection work into the annual target assessment of county work, and the evaluation weight increased from 6 points to 10 points. In the past, the phenomenon of environmental protection departments fighting alone has also been improved, and a series of long-term mechanisms have been established and improved. Drawing lessons from the central environmental protection supervision mode, provincial environmental protection supervision systems have been established in many places, and the reform of vertical management system for monitoring, supervision and law enforcement of environmental protection institutions below the provincial level has been carried out in pilot provinces and cities such as Hebei and Chongqing.

　　At the same time, some experts suggest that it is necessary to prevent individual places from being "across the board" and "a gust of wind" in local rectification under the pressure of inspector accountability.

　　Under the pressure of environmental protection, some places have simply and rudely taken "one size fits all" temporary closure measures for enterprises in people’s livelihood-related industries such as car wash shops, restaurants and laundries during the rectification of problems. For such problems, Chengdu issued an urgent notice in early August this year, not allowing temporary closure to deal with environmental protection inspectors, not allowing formalism, and not allowing the normal production of enterprises and the normal life of the people to be affected in the name of environmental protection inspectors.

　　Wang Yukai, a professor at the National School of Administration, and other experts suggested that environmental protection inspectors can learn from the experience of inspections, combine full coverage with "looking back" to prevent local governments from making a "gust of wind" to cope with inspections, and also increase the intensity of special inspections on key issues, so as to keep the sword of environmental protection hanging at all times, consolidate the achievements of environmental protection governance, and let the people see more actual environmental changes after accountability.

　　The Spring Festival of the Year of the Rooster is approaching, and the high-end liquor market, which has been depressed for more than four years, has finally entered the sales season. Beijing Youth Daily reporter visited the market yesterday and found that Wuliangye (commonly known as Puwu), a 52-degree 500ml crystal bottle, has risen from 729 yuan to 829 yuan, while Maotai (commonly known as Pufei), a 53-degree 500ml flying bottle, is a price like a stock every day. After New Year’s Day, it stood on the step of 2,000 yuan, but later the discount promotion price was close to 1,700 yuan. Yesterday, its single bottle price fell back to the level at the end of last year — — 1280 yuan.

　　Visit: high-end liquor sells well

　　In the exclusive liquor cabinet of Carrefour supermarket in Jiandeqiao, the price tag of Puwu has changed from 729 yuan/bottle a month ago to 829 yuan/bottle, and the price of Pufei has actually dropped from 2,000 yuan per bottle to 1,280 yuan, which is the price standard at the end of last year. According to the observation of the reporter of Beiqing Daily, the price fluctuation of Pufei is like a stock, with ups and downs, almost one price a day. Last Mid-Autumn Festival and November, the retail price of its supermarket was around 1000 yuan, and it rose to 1280 yuan per bottle near New Year’s Day. After New Year’s Day, its price soared again. This time, it stood on the step of 2000 yuan in one breath, but it was quickly discounted, and the discounted price was close to 1700 yuan. But now, customers can buy a bottle of Pfeiffer for 1280 yuan, which is only more 450 yuan than Wuliangye. For consumers, the cost performance is more suitable. According to the survey, at present, in JD.COM Mall and Tmall Mall, the price of Puwu single bottle is 816 yuan, and the price of Pufei single bottle is 1288 yuan.

　　Impact: Serious shortage of stock.

　　Different from Pufei’s performance of price reduction for the market, it is said that Puwu still has the impulse of price increase. It is understood that at present, the mainstream market price of Puwu is about 780 yuan/bottle, and some insiders predict that from the current trend of brisk sales, when it enters its peak next week, the regions with better market performance are expected to break through 800 yuan/bottle. As for the reasons for the price increase, some dealers said that since January this year, all kinds of business banquets, friends gathering for drinks, and new year purchases have begun. According to dealers, another reason for the price increase of high-grade liquor is that there was a rebate phenomenon between liquor enterprises and distributors in the past. Later, manufacturers canceled the rebate policy. After canceling the rebate policy, only the price increase can make money. In fact, as early as the end of last year, the price of a batch of Puwu had exceeded 739 yuan/bottle.

　　Regarding the relatively tight sales during the Spring Festival and the serious shortage of dealers, Wuliangye said that Wuliangye was seriously out of stock in many markets across the country because of the growth of consumption during the Spring Festival peak season and various factors of logistics. The delivery time of Wuliangye is until January 21st. At present, there are indeed many requests, and most dealers are asking for increments, but the company has no limit to increase at present. Because the dealer inventory has reached the lowest point in history, only around 8%. The person in charge of Wuliangye market told the media that in January this year, the shortage of Wuliangye was not an individual regional phenomenon, and the incremental demand of dealers was more urgent.

　　Research report: Liquor market is picking up.

　　According to the analysis of Southwest Securities Research Report, this round of liquor industry is picking up, and high-end liquor is the first to achieve recovery. After shuffling during the adjustment period, the absolute advantages of Maotai, Wuliangye and Guojiao in the high-end liquor market are established, and the pattern of the strong and the strong is interpreted.

　　It is difficult for Wuliangye to surpass Maotai in the short term, but its second position is stable, and it is expected to gradually narrow the gap. Maotai’s volume and price strategy has a strong suppression effect on Wuliangye. In 2016, driven by the dual demand of terminal consumption and channel replenishment, a batch of Maotai prices rose rapidly, from 840 yuan at the beginning of the year to 1,100 yuan. The huge gap between supply and demand in the future will push the prices up continuously.

　　Benefiting from the price increase of Maotai, Wuliangye took many measures in 2016 to promote the smooth price increase of core brands, and the ex-factory price was raised from 659 yuan to 739 yuan, and at the same time, the terminal was sold at a suitable price. In 2017, the company continued to control the price, and the supply in the fifth five-year plan decreased by 25%, and the price is expected to continue to rise.

　　A few days ago, the Ministry of Public Security announced that the crime of abducting and manipulating deaf people in 13 provinces involved was successfully solved. The public security organs of 13 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, including Sichuan, Chongqing, Jilin, Gansu and Liaoning, have carried out special centralized network-closing operations. Up to now, 464 suspects have been arrested, 75 criminal gangs have been destroyed, 98 abducted deaf-mute people have been rescued, and 859 illegal and criminal cases have been cracked.

　　In November last year, the public security organs in Changchun City, Jilin Province found in their work that criminal gangs led by Yang Jun abducted and manipulated deaf people to engage in illegal and criminal activities, and committed crimes in a wide area and involved many people. Under the coordination and command of the Ministry of Public Security, the Sichuan Provincial Public Security Department immediately set up a task force to arrest the people involved in the case in China, and Yang Jun, the main suspect of the gang, was arrested in Mianyang.

　　A few days ago, a reporter from Huaxi Dushi Bao met Yang Jun, who was detained in Mianyang Detention Center. This young man in his twenties looked very sunny. Through the on-the-spot communication with the sign language teacher, he told the story of his crime of abducting and manipulating the deaf after dropping out of college.

　　Deaf-mute college students drop out of school and use QQ group to form pickpockets.

　　On October 12th, Yang Jun, dressed in prison uniform, kept gesturing to reporters with sign language in Mianyang Detention Center, telling her experiences for so many years. According to Yang Jun, he used to be a deaf-mute student in a university in Chongqing. Because of his small circle of communication, he was afraid that he would not find a job in the future, so he dropped out of school and returned to Chengdu to start a street pickpocketing career. Yang Jun, who is physically strong and influential among the disabled pickpockets with him, was recommended as the leader. In 2014, Yang Jun and another partner, Yang Ning, who is also deaf and dumb, and Wang Qiang, a normal person, came up with the idea of forming a team to steal.

　　In order to strengthen their own team, Yang Jun and others used QQ group to release information to the deaf-mute disabled people in the group, saying that they could help introduce their work and get to know more disabled people and their partners through this group.

　　Yang Jun’s girlfriend Xue Yu met through QQ group. At the beginning of 2012, Xue Yu, a minor, found Yang Jun with a try attitude. At the beginning, because Xue Yu was young, when Yang Jun gang members stole, Xue Yu covered the periphery. "Our group can steal hundreds of dollars every day, but we have to hand them in for distribution." Xue Yu said that she made little contribution at that time and earned very little money.

　　Later, Xue Yucheng became Yang Jun’s girlfriend, so Yang Jun stopped letting her steal, and was responsible for keeping the money handed in by small gangs every day. According to Xue Yu, after becoming boyfriend and girlfriend with Yang Jun, Yang Jun took her to drive around and bought her many luxuries such as mink coats and LV bags.

　　Looking for a job, looking for a partner, these tempting information, let many deaf-mute people focus on it and join the gang of Yang Jun and others. "When we invite these disabled people, we always give them tickets first, and then give them tickets when they are satisfied ‘ Work ’ 。” Yang Junyong gestured in sign language.

　　Unified rental management "performance" is sent to other provinces

　　After these deaf-mute disabled people were deceived together, Yang Jun took away their ID cards and disability certificates, rented houses for them in a unified way, managed them in a unified way, and conducted training. After the training is completed, these people will be sent to stations, squares and other intensive places to steal, and the profits will be divided according to "performance".

　　Yang Jun said that Yang Ning, the fat man, was responsible for arranging the theft of their gang, and the person in charge of the area was appointed first, followed by the group leader. The pickpocketing team is a combination of old and new. One of them steals, the other covers, and the new recruits are led by the small leader, who learns pickpocketing experience while covering the periphery. "The people sent out depend on their luck. At most, a group can earn 2,000 yuan at a time."

　　Yang Jun and others, in the manipulation of gangs, also assigned experienced personnel to other places to steal, and then introduced foreign personnel to the local area. "It’s easy to manage and make them rely on us." Yang Jun said that those who failed to get the money for a long time would be kicked out of the team. According to Yang Jun’s account, this pickpocket gang has been growing and finally developed into a pickpocket gang for the deaf and dumb across 13 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, with more than 400 main members. There are more than 20 people just following Yang Jun, and their daily income is considerable.

　　Members are often threatened to "cut their throats" if they don’t listen.

　　Zhao Li, a 21-year-old from Shaanxi, is also a member of this gang. She got married in her hometown and gave birth to a healthy baby. A few years ago, Zhao Li, who had nothing to do at home, listened to a friend’s introduction and joined this criminal gang to take charge of the outer cover. And her superior Gao Cheng is the head of Yang Jun sent to other places. At the beginning of this year, Zhao Li’s son fell ill and was hospitalized. His parents told her about his illness through WeChat, and asked her to go home and visit him.

　　Zhao Li told Gao Cheng, her head, the idea of going home, but Hu Zi, another member of the gang, refused to return her ID card and disability certificate to Zhao Li. "Without these things, I can’t even go home to buy a ticket."

　　Zhao Li begged several times before he got his certificate. After going home to visit her children and parents, she quickly ran out of money and joined the pickpocket gang again. In September this year, when she committed a crime with gang members in Changzhou City, Jiangsu Province, she was arrested by the local police.

　　According to Zhao Li, front-line personnel like her are often threatened by the people above, and when their performance is not satisfactory, they can’t have a full meal. For deaf people who want to escape, the backbone of the gang will be beaten by threats of violence. "They often use gestures such as cutting their throats to threaten deaf people who are disobedient." Zhao Li said that compared with the physical trauma, the psychological damage of the deaf-mutes who were cheated into the partnership was particularly serious.

　　Being escorted to Mianyang Detention Center, Zhao Li shed tears when he was interrogated by the police. She gestured with her hand that she missed her children and her parents. If she could go back in time, she would never do pickpocketing again.

　　The police jointly collected the net and found LV handbags and other items.

　　In November last year, the public security organs in Changchun City, Jilin Province found in their work that criminal gangs led by Yang Jun abducted and manipulated deaf people to engage in illegal and criminal activities, and committed crimes in a wide area and involved many people. After the case was reported, the Ministry of Public Security attached great importance to it, set up a task force to investigate the case, and deployed public security organs in 13 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, including Sichuan and Jilin, to carry out their work along the line. With the deepening of investigation, the public security organs have gradually sorted out the activity tracks and laws of several criminal gangs and mastered the relevant criminal facts.

　　After the network was closed, the arresting group found that these people had strong anti-detection ability because of various trainings. "Once they find something unusual, they will immediately transfer. Many old policemen in the detachment have been discovered by them several times." Chen Feihu, a policeman from the Criminal Investigation Detachment of Mianyang Public Security Bureau, said.

　　As the leader of the gang, Yang Jun was ready to escape at this time. On October 7th, when Yang Jun and others packed expensive items such as LV handbags and prepared to escape, they were stopped by the task force. In the rental house in Yang Jun, the police found LV handbags, mink coats and other items, as well as car tools ready to escape.

　　Suspect confessed

　　Novices in each group every day.

　　Steal 2000 to 3000 yuan

　　With the continuous arrest of the core members of the gang, the organizational structure of this criminal gang and the means of violent control of deaf-mute people have gradually surfaced.

　　"Novices need to steal from 2,000 yuan to 3,000 yuan per group every day, while skilled thieves have a daily goal of 10,000 yuan. If they fail to achieve their goals, they will have to beat and scold. Only by stealing enough indicators and stealing more can you have a good meal and see meat. " Thinking of that unforgettable past, Pang Mou, the abducted disabled person, burst into tears.

　　In the previous investigation, the public security organs found that the gang was closely organized and had a clear division of labor, and it was managed by a special person from top to bottom. "The gang level is clear, the gang leader can fly by plane and high-speed rail, and others can only travel by train. Deaf-mute people will be taken away by the backbone and leader of the gang every day, and they can’t leave a penny. " Wang Wantao, political commissar of Mianyang Criminal Investigation Detachment, said.

　　Dialogue with Yang

　　Worried about being eliminated by society

　　Finally took a detour.

　　Huaxi Dushi Bao: Why did you go from stealing to abducting and manipulating deaf people?

　　Yang Jun: I am a deaf-mute disabled person. I seldom communicate with normal people at ordinary times, and the sign language of deaf-mute people can’t be understood by outsiders. It is these reasons that make me think that I will be eliminated by society and finally embark on the road of pickpocketing. In the process of stealing, I often encounter being beaten, being discriminated against by normal people, and my reputation in the circle has become bigger, so I began to recruit deaf-mute disabled people to steal.

　　Huaxi Dushi Bao: You are a disabled person, and you recruited disabled people. Why do you want to exploit them?

　　Yang Jun: We need money to rent them a house and provide them with training. Therefore, every time they steal, we will ask them to pay a certain percentage.

　　Huaxi Dushi Bao: Disabled people deserve sympathy, but you use them as a tool to collect money. Have you ever felt guilty about doing so?

　　Yang Jun: After several days of introspection, I also realized my mistakes. Disabled people need care from all walks of life, but I took them astray when they needed care most. They were rescued this time, and I hope they can get out of the shadows.
