The Behind-the-scenes Team of Decomposing Corpses and Building Prosthetics to Explore The Battle at Lake Changjin’s Most Important Taste


Special feature of 1905 film network If you pay close attention to the movie credits, you will find a special department — — Corpse prosthetic prop group.

 

This department has been standard in Hollywood blockbusters, but it is the first time in domestic films.


 

Realistic injuries, delicate prostheses and tragic corpses have become an indispensable part of the film through the skillful hands of these behind-the-scenes craftsmen, allowing the audience to feel the cruelty of war and the fearless sacrifice spirit of the volunteers.

 


Xue Song, director of The Battle at Lake Changjin’s series of cadaver prosthetic props, revealed that they produced a total of 110 corpses and a large number of corpses and injuries for the film, the largest scale of which was made in China.

 

In this issue of Behind the Scene, let’s follow Xue Song to explore this little-known special department together.

tirelessly seek improvement

Restore the cruelty of the battlefield with details

 

What is the responsibility of the "corpse prosthetic prop group", which sounds a little mysterious and scary? Xue Song summed it up with four key words: "Scar and corpse blood".

 

"The first is the design of the blood effect of the injury; Second, it is necessary to solve the production of prosthetic props and cosmetic materials for corpses; The third is to complicate the execution in live shooting. "


 

Once upon a time, the scenes of death and injury in war films were mainly played by extras. However, with the development of visual effects technology and the increasing demand of audiences for war films, professional cadaver prosthetic props departments came into being to create effects that real actors could not achieve.

 

"For example, burning, burying, crushing, hanging, flooding, rotting, etc., this kind of thing is impossible for a real actor." Xue Song said, "You can also use artificial limbs to connect with real actors. For example, the body has been exploded in two parts, and it is impossible to use real people to do this effect. We need to use artificial limbs to connect with real people."


 

In this case, it is necessary to pay special attention to details and realism. "The reduction degree of the’ corpse’ and the real person should reach more than 90%, and it must withstand the level of large close-up and meticulous shooting of pores. The direction of hair scales, the texture of the skin, the blood vessels under the skin, the posture of death, and the expression before death must be restored. "

 

Take The Battle at Lake Changjin as an example. In the scene of fighting in a residential building in the Mid-Levels, an American soldier’s body was crushed by a tank in the process of fighting, so he needed to use a "corpse" to meet the actor.

 

It takes about 20 days to make such a "lifelike" corpse, from the scanning, modeling and sculpture of actors to the restoration of injuries and the texture of hair and eyeballs. The effort is reflected in the details.


 

Another common use of props such as cadaver prostheses is to "lay out the battlefield", which shows the extreme environment of the battlefield with a large number of corpses, body pieces, plasma and so on, showing the tragic cruelty of the war.

 

In The Battle at Lake Changjin, Wu Wan Li, who plays the first time in the battlefield, lies on the dry river bed with his comrades to avoid the US bombing, which is impressive. The air-dried bodies around the soldiers are also chilling.


 

During the production, Xue Song and his team referred to the cold, dry and windy climate in northern Korea, and did not make the corpse rotten, but made it air-dried.

 

"The atrophy of muscles, the collapse of soft tissues, the exposure of teeth, and the natural aging of clothing after wind and sun have formed the final effect."


 

For this kind of corpse prop that doesn’t need to take part in the play with the actors, Xue Song pays more attention to the visual effect shown to the audience and the communication of the film theme in the design.

 

"This scene wants to show that Wan Li, as a recruit, really feels the cruelty of war, which is very necessary for his personal growth. Our task is to create a battlefield environment full of death and promote his growth."

 

Pay equal attention to technology and art

Advanced assistance for domestic war film technology

 

Prop making and special effect makeup of cadaver prosthesis are not only hard-core technical activities, but also need rich knowledge reserves, including human anatomy, forensic medicine, military medicine and so on.

 

"First of all, we must have an understanding of the human body, subcutaneous fat layer, muscle layer and bone layer. The whole effect design is carried out according to the human muscle tissue structure."


 

According to the different ways of injury, injuries can be divided into different types, from the simplest subcutaneous bruises to superficial scratches, knife wounds, gunshot wounds, injuries, burns, chemical injuries, biological injuries, mechanical injuries, etc. "For each play, we will do the restoration of injury effects and the design of injuries in the environment described in the script," Xue Song explained.

 

Take it as an example, the old iron who was shot in the face formed a penetrating wound. The entrance of the bullet was very small, but after tumbling in the human body, the exit "exploded" the whole muscle tissue. These injury effects were supported by medical knowledge.


 

What is the difference between the wounds caused by pistols and rifles? What are the injuries caused by grenades, mines and incendiary bombs?


In order to restore the injury realistically, prop artists usually look through a large number of forensic anatomical illustrations and battlefield trauma materials to accumulate real materials.

 

Xue Song said with a smile that the team members, both boys and girls, are very "taste-oriented". Instead of being afraid of seeing pictures of various injuries, the first thought is "This injury is really beautiful. This person died with characteristics. I want to make them."


 

When evaluating excellent domestic war films, the two most common words are "truth", but this truth is enclosed in double quotation marks.


Prop design should also grasp the balance between restoring reality and artistic processing. Being too realistic and bloody will bring psychological and physical discomfort to the audience and affect the artistic expression of the film.

 

"Props are a part of the violent aesthetics of war movies, and it is more necessary to restore the artistic truth, filter out the bloody parts, and then become an artistic creation to serve the idea of the whole movie. We have always stressed the need to make technology with stories, and technology should be hidden behind art, not before it, "Xue Song said.


 

With the development of domestic war films, Xue Song and the props team have been accumulating behind-the-scenes production experience, from The Eight Hundred’s injury effect design to The Battle at Lake Changjin’s corpse prosthesis production.

 

During the production of The Battle at Lake Changjin, the team developed a batch of wearable injury effects, including frostbite finger covers, foot covers, etc. It is easy to wear, and the preparation time is only 10 minutes, which can meet the close-up level shooting and can be reused, saving costs.

 


After The Eight Hundred, a special technical system of domestic war films was gradually established, including creation mode, production mode and service mode, which provided reference for subsequent film production.

 

At the end of the The Battle at Lake Changjin film, the "corpse prosthetic prop group" first appeared in the behind-the-scenes team of domestic films, which was only the beginning and a new starting point for the continuous breakthrough of domestic war films.


Sinking resources, carefully guarding-knowledge of epidemic prevention and control at grass-roots level during the Spring Festival

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, January 24thTitle: Sinking resources are carefully guarded — — Prevention and control of grass-roots epidemic situation during the Spring Festival

  Xinhua news agency reporter

  The Spring Festival of the Year of the Rabbit is the first long holiday when China’s epidemic prevention and control has entered a new stage. The reporter learned from interviews at the grassroots level in many places that all localities coordinated the dispatch of urban and rural medical resources and weaved a "protective net" at the grassroots level. The majority of medical workers and epidemic prevention personnel adhered to the front line and devoted themselves to the safety and health of the people for the New Year.

  Consolidate various prevention and control measures

  Implement epidemic prevention measures in key places, establish management accounts, and continuously publicize epidemic prevention knowledge … … In order to let the people live a safe and healthy Spring Festival, many places have taken a series of powerful actions.

  During the Spring Festival, the Qingming Shangheyuan in Kaifeng, Henan Province launched the 2023 Kaifeng Folk Carnival, with hundreds of performances and hundreds of folk customs to celebrate the Spring Festival, attracting many tourists.

  Xing Xiaoyue, a staff member of Shangheyuan Scenic Area in Qingming Festival, said that the park strictly implements the requirements of "limiting, making an appointment and shifting peaks", completes the work of eliminating and killing public facilities, and arranges special personnel to patrol. "In terms of personal protection, wearing masks in public places has become a habit, and everyone consciously becomes the first responsible person for their own health."

  In view of the many cultural activities and dense personnel in various places during the Spring Festival, various places have implemented epidemic prevention work in key places by setting up special epidemic prevention classes, broadcasting reminders and regular disinfection. Zhang Mingzhi, director of Gaozhou Xiantaimiao Management Office in Maoming City, Guangdong Province, said that during the Spring Festival, the daily flow of people in the scenic spot was about 20,000 to 30,000, including many returnees and rural people. "The staff should disinfect the internal and external environment, and there is a warm reminder card for wearing a mask at the entrance."

  Xihua County, Henan Province, made great efforts to find out the base number of key populations, established a dynamic management account for 125,000 elderly people over 60 years old, 4,408 left-behind children, 2,048 pregnant women, 24,019 disabled people, 2,230 elderly people living alone and 162,000 migrant workers, and established a transfer and treatment mechanism for infected people to ensure that they should be cured.

  Wushan County, Chongqing has set up 42 fever clinics (consultation rooms) according to the principle of "all facilities should be set up and all services should be opened", and mobile diagnosis and treatment vehicles (mobile fever clinics) and fever diagnosis and treatment stations have been opened in urban areas to facilitate residents to seek medical treatment during the Spring Festival.

  Pass forward to the community

  In Dayu Village, Zhenjiang Town, Gaozhou City, Guangdong Province, Deng Bobo, a 90-year-old villager who had been infected with Covid-19, was discharged before the Spring Festival and returned home with his family. The old man feels gratified to have a reunion year with his children. Son Deng Lianjin said that the hospital has prepared medicines for the elderly to recover at home, and the nearby Shigu Town Central Health Center is only 10 minutes’ drive from home. My father’s recovery is guaranteed, and the whole family has lived with peace of mind this year.

  The reporter learned from the interview that before the Spring Festival, the guidance on primary treatment was strengthened by means of on-site diagnosis and treatment, remote consultation, etc., and emergency equipment and medicines were prepared at the same time to move forward the barrier of health protection and prevention of severe illness.

  In Xiaowang Village, Tiankou Township, Xihua County, Henan Province, the reporter saw that the village health center has two floors, one is the diagnosis and treatment area, and the other is the living area. The first floor diagnosis and treatment area, seven rooms, such as diagnosis and treatment room, propaganda classroom and observation room, were cleaned neatly, the remote diagnosis and treatment system waited for the call online in real time, and the commonly used drugs for reducing fever and relieving cough in the pharmacy were well prepared.

  Chongqing clearly requires coordination in the prevention and control of epidemic situation in urban and rural communities. Adhere to the "moving forward" and strengthen care services for key groups such as "one old and one small" and "one trapped and one disabled".

  A team of family doctors and village doctors in Wushan County, Chongqing, went to the door to check and evaluate the health of key personnel before, and made a closer observation of relatively serious personnel. Zhang Liao, director of guandu town Central Health Center in Wushan County, said: "During the Spring Festival, more than half of our medical staff were on duty, and the hospital always kept an emergency team, and the fever clinic was waiting for 24 hours."

  In Anping County, Hengshui City, Hebei Province, in order to meet the needs of residents for medical treatment and provide timely health consultation and medication guidance, the health and health departments set up 245 family patrol teams, covering all 230 administrative villages and 15 communities in the county. The members of the team are composed of township or community cadres, village or community cadres, and grassroots medical staff to carry out home follow-up services.

  Rural clinics and health centers "don’t close"

  "This year’s Spring Festival obviously feels popular and lively." Tian Quanbin and Sheng Airong, doctors from Xiaowang Village, Tiankou Township, Xihua County, Henan Province, said, "There are more people coming back from holidays, wearing masks, washing hands frequently, gathering less and ventilating more. Most villagers are familiar with these epidemic prevention knowledge. I hope everyone can protect themselves and spend a healthy year. "

  Tian Quanbin and Sheng Airong have lived and worked here for 27 years. This rural health clinic guards the health of more than 2,800 villagers. Before the Spring Festival, the clinic and the village committee have arranged the situation of the key people in the village.

  The reporter visited and learned that many village clinics and township center hospitals "don’t fight" during the Spring Festival holiday. They publicized epidemic prevention knowledge to the villagers through WeChat groups and loudspeakers, and at the same time went to the village to send medicines to doctors.

  "There are medicines for relieving fever and pain, relieving cough and asthma, as well as some masks and antigen detection reagents. If you feel unwell, you must contact the hospital in time." Yan Daxin, a doctor from guandu town Central Health Center in Wushan County, Chongqing, came to the home of Yan Xianjun, a villager in Yanglin Village before the festival, and sent the 75-year-old man a "health package" of epidemic prevention love. Then he carefully measured his blood pressure, blood sugar and blood oxygen. It is understood that Wushan County, Chongqing has given free "health packages" to the elderly over 60 years old in batches, and distributed more than 100,000 "health packages" by relying on community grid workers and village cadres.

  Follow Li Yongan, Dean of Tiankou Township Health Center, into the pharmacy, where the commonly used antipyretic and cough medicine has been reserved for three weeks. "More than ten days before the Spring Festival, the number of fever clinics has dropped to two or three people a day." Li Yongan said that during the Spring Festival, they should be on duty in hospitals, and strengthen communication with 30 village doctors in 17 village clinics under their jurisdiction. After discovering cases, they can seek medical treatment in time according to individual conditions, and if necessary, they can contact city and county hospitals to organize remote consultation, or refer them according to the graded diagnosis and treatment mechanism.

  "Village clinics and township health centers are the first pass for epidemic prevention in rural areas. By integrating medical resources in counties, townships and villages in advance, they will play a linkage role and build a solid epidemic prevention barrier for rural areas." Li Yongan said.

In the Long Farewell to Amazon Rainforest, Animal Protector’s "Fifty Steps and Hundred Steps"

Xiaonan heard that this winter is very cold, but Xiaonan is still very lucky, not only active in warm areas, but also talking with animals all the time! Love! Love (Xiao Nan is by no means a single bird! ), hugging little lions in South Africa, hooking up with slow sloths in the Amazon rainforest, and going deep into the forests of Indonesia to find orangutans. ……

However, many things are not as simple as imagined, just as even the best couples still have misunderstandings and contradictions with each other. As a common good friend of animals and human beings, Xiaonan often faces the question of "stepping on two boats with one foot".

-For example, in the Amazon rainforest, Xiaonan found many things, which are much more complicated than expected. If you don’t believe me, you can see how Mr. Huang, who is with Xiao Nan, "struggles internally" in the following article.

Wen Miao Huang Hongxiang

"This is not the real Amazon rainforest. Look around, there are low shrubs and tall trees have disappeared. "

With the roar of the motor of the small wooden boat and the agitation of the Amazon river, pointing to the "forest" on both sides of the strait that tourists are moved by, our orientation has made us sigh like this. He has been to the depths of the Amazon river basin, where the trees are towering, and the banks can see flying macaws and drinking leopards.

In our location, around Iquidos, the capital city of the Amazon rainforest region in Peru, such forests and animals no longer exist because of logging and human activities.

Trees along the Amazon River are no longer "towering" | Huang Hongxiang 

The indigenous people here have also lived a modern life. They will only take off their clothes when tourists arrive and perform the gesture of "primitive tribe". After work, they will put on T-shirts to watch TV and soak in bars.

Amazon rainforest is the largest tropical rainforest with the richest biodiversity in the world. It is called the lung of the earth. 60% of this rainforest is in Brazil and 13% in Peru. From Peru’s point of view, 60% of the country is Amazon rainforest.

It is saying goodbye to us: the rainforest is disappearing rapidly because of various reasons such as timber industry, oil exploitation, road development and rubber planting; River water has been polluted more and more because of mining and chemical industry. A large number of wildlife smugglers grab wild animals from the forest and sell them to zoos and local tyrants all over the world.

Of course, on the way to say goodbye, the rainforest is not without some struggles, even if it is twisted and wriggling, not too elegant. And this may also be the epitome of the global animal protection and environmental protection.

Eco-tourism: disturbing animals or keeping them at gunpoint?

Trying to tear off Teman’s Goma map | Huang Hongxiang

Goma leaned the wooden boat against the shore, struggled to pull a rich vine three or four meters high among the trees, and finally pulled it off.

"See the sloth’s face?" Goma pointed to the sloth that was exposed because the cover was torn off and began to crawl higher slowly, and smiled at us innocently.

Goma is the local guide of a leading travel agency on an internationally renowned travel platform, and this company takes "responsible travel" as its publicity highlight.

During the three-day and two-night trip, he dutifully helped tourists to see as many animals as possible at close range and gain a deeper and three-dimensional jungle experience: he would feed bananas to wild monkeys with long wooden poles, so that they could come to the branches and leaves of the river bank from the high treetops;

He will grab the small caiman in the water with his bare hands during the night flight and take photos for tourists. He will also help tourists catch piranhas and bring them back to the camp to become the food of the guests.

Follow Goma to catch small crocodiles at night | Huang Hongxiang

Seeing the palm-sized piranha being strung on a stick and its mouth moving, I felt a little uncomfortable. I remembered the experience of another ecological trip in Ecuador six years ago: the guide caught piranha, took pictures of us and then threw it back into the water.

At that time, I wondered whether these fish could survive even if they were put back into the water, and whether this kind of eco-tourism that would bring harm to wild animals was "ecological" enough, or compared with the "pot calling the kettle black" that directly hunted animals.

At that time, I desperately wanted to maximize the interests of animals. Therefore, in my critical eyes, eco-tourism is not good enough. The most "ecological" way should be that humans should never set foot in this rainforest. Otherwise, even the floating gasoline on the river brought by ships, the huge roar of motors and the activities when tourists approach may be disturbing animals.

Compared with the trip in Ecuador, I saw a series of great disturbances to animals, and my doubts were even stronger this time.

Will the initial intention of eco-tourism be gradually forgotten in commercialization, or are we slipping from "fifty steps" to "one hundred steps" unconsciously?

I returned to Iquidos from the jungle with doubts and met the hospitable boss in a Chinese restaurant. He told us that the Chinese bought a lot of jaguar teeth here. It is illegal for Chinese to hunt jaguars, so they just tell the aborigines who have the right to hunt legally that they are willing to buy them, and the aborigines will hunt them.

In the past, the aborigines only killed jaguars when they were threatened, and the amount of hunting was very small, maybe one or two a year. Today, however, nearly 100 leopards in this area have become tiger teeth in the hands of Chinese to ward off evil spirits and tiger whips to strengthen yang every year. In a few years, the jaguar tooth has changed from a few sols (one sol is about two yuan) to a few hundred or even thousands of sols.

"The number is getting smaller and smaller," local hunters will sigh. Then they stepped up hunting, because "staying there will be killed by others and the money will be earned by others."

"We used to kill a lot of monkeys, tigers and cats and other animals here. Today, because of tourism, we kill a lot less. After all, we can make money by showing tourists." Goma told us.

In his village, because of the eco-hotel where he works, the income of villagers increases every year. In order to please tourists, the aborigines have to say that they are disturbing wild animals on a scale different from that of hundreds of years ago, but at least they are no longer hunting wild animals.

Breeding and export of wild animals

Turning animals into playthings or replacing illegal capture?

Brother Yu counted the capybara in the yard and proudly told us that he exported 80% of the legal capybara in China Zoo and Mengchong Paradise.

Yuge, from Shanghai, is in his forties this year. He runs the top three local animal export companies in Iquidos, Peru. What he has done is to export all kinds of capybara, monkeys, macaws, reptiles and tropical fish from the Amazon rainforest to China Zoo and Mengchong Paradise. His family has a long-tailed tiger cat, a wild animal with beautiful fur in the Amazon rainforest.

Holding brother Yu’s long-tailed tiger cat

Zoos, cute pet parks and animal trade are sensitive topics for international animal protectors today. A few years ago, Zimbabwe sold a batch of baby elephants to China Zoo. Although it was legal, it still attracted many people’s criticism. It is criticized by many people to take the elephant away from his parents and send it to other distant villages for people to enjoy, but it is easy to die in the process.

"Boycott zoos, aquariums, contact with animals and taking photos with animals" is the political correctness of many environmentalists today.

But is it really that simple?

According to Yu Ge, their animal sources must be legal: they were seized from poachers, or they were rescued wild animals that could not be released. After getting these animals, they will breed and export their offspring. These animals have a strict numbering and recording system, and the legal export of an animal takes up to half a year.

The tortoise map that Yuge’s family will import to China in the future | Huang Hongxiang

Faced with the demand for animals from zoos and even private buyers all over the world, such a system is bound to be in short supply. Brother Yu knew an American who was in Iquidos and focused on raising snakes. He had an extremely rare jade tree, and after waiting for 20 years, he could not find another one to pair with, so it was hard to say when he could breed.

Even so, he refused to buy jadeite trees from illegal sources.

Therefore, in fact, there is a large amount of illegal animal trade today: smugglers directly buy wild animals from local people and smuggle them around the world. The price of such animals may be a fraction of that of legal animals, and the delivery cycle is very short, so it can be delivered quickly.

Wildlife trade is the third largest illegal trade in the world after drugs and guns.

Different from drugs, the punishment of animal trade is still very light in many countries today, and it can often be fined. Smugglers are the least afraid of fines-an animal can be bought for hundreds of dollars in its place of origin, and it can be sold for tens of thousands of dollars or more in China. It’s no big deal to smuggle ten times and get caught several times.

"Today, China is the largest market for wildlife in the world, and a large number of wildlife are smuggled in the China market." Brother Yu told us that in fact, legal animal traders are on the opposite side of illegal animal traders-although no animal protection organization has ever cooperated with him to fight.

Many animal protection organizations and their sponsors are afraid of being seen standing with controversial people, even if cooperation can better protect animals.

Today, many animal breeding, traders and breeding bases have become white washing places for poaching animals. Brother Yu said that he didn’t do those illegal things, but only bred wild animals legally and sent them to zoos and cute pet parks to get close to people and play.

Not to mention whether it is really legal will be questioned, even if it is legal, because of many problems such as animal trafficking, contact, photo taking, etc., the business itself is also condemned.

How high a threshold should we set for animal protection?

As an investigator of international wildlife products trade, and as an educator concerned about animal protection and nature education, many people have asked me many questions about zoos, animal trade, animal contact and animal protection.

I always say that these things are very complicated and difficult to sum up in one word, and it is best not to let your existing prejudices stop you from hearing different voices.

Many people always like to see people and things from a black-and-white perspective: those who buy and sell ivory are heinous criminals; It is inhuman to take tourists hunting; Close contact with wild animals is to turn animals into playthings.

Photo taken with a sloth of a family in Amazon rainforest | sherry

I don’t support these behaviors, but after seeing the complicated aspects of the world, I am worried about oversimplifying judgment.

The world is not black and white, and we need to remember more that what we see may not be all. We need to listen more to what we don’t hear and understand people and things we don’t understand-especially when we want to find a solution to the problem instead of just "condemning" ourselves.

Smith, a friend of mine in South Africa, is engaged in "volunteer tourism". Every year, he sends a large number of volunteers from all over the world to a big cat base to get in close contact with several lions in the base. Those lions lost their ability to return to the wild because they were taken away by poachers and sold to zoos or rich people’s homes, and became pet lions accustomed to living with people, even after being rescued.

Walking with KAI, a little male lion growing up beside human beings | Banete

Many people attacked him, thinking that what he did violated the rules of animal protection-wild animals should not be in close contact with people and become pets and playthings.

Smith, who considers himself an animal protector, is very wronged:

"In a perfect world, people and wild animals should certainly not be in close contact. But the world is not perfect. Humans are constantly destroying the habitats of animals and hunting them. In this case, these individual animals have been unable to return to the wild for various reasons. Why can’t they interact with people on the premise of their comfortable life and play a certain educational role, so as to cultivate people’s love for animals, especially those who don’t like animals that much? Today, you don’t let people who don’t like animals themselves touch animals, saying that it violates animal protection ethics, but one day he may directly hunt animals or take away their habitats! "

Interview with Smith and park staff in South Africa

Smith called these animal protectionists Purist. These people live in their own world, have a lot of "should", speak a lot of terms, and judge others with these moral superiority, but they don’t realize that those who participate in their activities and recognize their propaganda are not those who would buy illegal animal products and hurt animals. They have long been separated from the public who really decide the fate of many animals in the world.

"They feel good about themselves, but they don’t really contribute much, because they just move in their own small circle."

Smith feels that every year, for various reasons, including the reason that it is not particularly "correct" to take photos with lions, international visitors who come to South Africa gradually like animals and develop the concept of animal protection in the project, which is a real contribution.

Close contact between the students and the little lion in the big cat park | ansen

"People who feel that there is something wrong with my project, please come to investigate in person to understand the specific situation. If there is any problem, please report it. Don’t come and have never been here. If you don’t investigate, you will be self-righteous."

He was a little angry with an American woman who tirelessly "reminded" everyone not to go to his project on facebook, because the American woman who said that their project was not good at all had never been to their base for investigation, or even to South Africa.

What Smith said resonated in my heart.

In the past few years, especially in the investigation, I have come into contact with too many people who are completely different from the "animal protectionists": they don’t like animals, don’t care about animal protection, and turn a blind eye to or even hate the education of various animal protection organizations. Therefore, the propaganda and education of animal protection organizations can’t touch them, but they are directly related to many behaviors that bring harm to animals and the environment.

In order to let them enter the world of animal protection, we may need to provide a low enough threshold-sometimes, the activities that can attract them are to feed the baby elephant, kiss the giraffe and take a walk with the lion.

Students walking with the little lion KAI Figure | Wang Zhen

Of course, a certain degree of guidance and education is needed in this process, and there are still many precautions in these activities, but at least, they came to us and gave us a chance to talk to them.

In the field of animal protection, today I have seen too many condemnations about zoos, contact with animals and taking photos with animals. However, I can’t deny my past:

When I was a very young child, it was precisely because my grandfather took me to the small zoo in my hometown where animals were kept in a small space every day and went to Mengchong Paradise to get in touch with all kinds of animals that I gradually became so fond of animals. If traced back, it may be the source of my ivory investigation, the establishment of Zhongnan House and my continued active work in animal protection.

Many western animal protectionists will tell me that people should go directly to Africa and South America to see wild animals, and zoos should not exist at all.

The truth seems right, but the question is, how many people have such economic strength and opportunities?

If such a small zoo and a cute pet paradise didn’t exist according to the wishes of Purist, I probably wouldn’t have the opportunity to get in touch with those animals and like them like those rich children living in developed areas.

It is definitely wrong to disturb wild animals, but when I hold a sloth, its body temperature makes me really feel warm and heart-warming, which is beyond my reach; It is probably wrong to turn wild animals into playthings, but when touching capybara, I really feel more impulse to protect these lovely animals.

Walking with elephants | Zhou Yuecheng

In wildlife protection, if zero step is to keep human beings completely away from the world of wildlife, what is the first step for the zoo to trade with legal animals? What is the first step to disturb the tourism of wild animals to some extent? What is the first step to play with the raised wild animals? What’s the first step in legal hunting? What is the next step in the illegal wildlife trade and mass killing of wildlife? In an imperfect world, if we can’t stop at all, where should we stop?

I haven’t been able to form an answer yet, and I don’t want to form an answer so soon, because the world is not black and white, and I still have too much to learn and understand humbly.

The plane climbed slowly, watching the Amazon jungle that I dreamed of when I was a child gradually go away, and I couldn’t help but get lost in thought about all kinds of contradictions. I also know that there is not much time left for us to meditate. Farewell, even if it is long, the Amazon rainforest is actually leaving us-maybe once she turns around, she just disappeared while waving.

Huibo Company loaned 7.2 billion yuan? Nanning official: There is no actual loan of 7.2 billion yuan.

  On May 23, Nanning held a press conference to respond to the recent complaints from the general public and netizens about the high standard of road parking fees, unreasonable delineation of parking spaces and chaotic charging.

  Hou Gang, deputy secretary of the Nanning Municipal Party Committee and mayor, said at the meeting that during this period, some citizens and netizens have reflected the problems of high road parking fees, unreasonable parking spaces and chaotic charges in our city, and made criticisms on our urban management work, which fully shows that everyone really loves Nanning, and it also shows that there are obvious shortcomings and deficiencies in our work in this regard. As the mayor of Nanning, I have a responsibility, because the government’s work is not done in place, which has brought inconvenience and influence to everyone’s work and life. These days, I feel deeply uneasy and blame myself. Here, on behalf of the municipal government, I would like to express my deep review and deep apologies to the general public.

  All along, Nanning’s economic and social development has been concerned and helped by the people of the whole country, and has been actively participated and strongly supported by all citizens. It is precisely because of everyone’s concern and love for this city that the city of Nanning keeps growing and making progress. I would like to express my sincere thanks to all of you.

  We attach great importance to the criticisms and opinions put forward by the general public and netizens, reflect deeply, act immediately, carry out relevant work, and rectify while finding problems. Today, we hold a press conference here to inform you about the relevant situation since this time.

  Nanning has taken work measures:

  The first is to further understand the public’s demands.Nanning organized nine research groups, led by leaders of Nanning, to go deep into the surrounding areas such as farmers’ markets, schools, supermarkets, small restaurants and residential quarters, to learn about the parking fees and management of urban roads on the spot, and to listen to the opinions and suggestions of citizens on parking space setting, optimizing and adjusting parking fees and improving the management service level. At the same time, through online means such as the 12345 mayor hotline and the portal website of the industry authorities, the channels for the masses to reflect their demands will be further unblocked. Nanning has set up a leading group for special work, and started the related work of soliciting opinions, price investigation and price hearing in an all-round way.

  The second is to optimize road parking measures to facilitate the people and benefit the people.The price adjustment of urban road parking spaces is a major administrative decision. According to the law, the adjustment needs to go through legal procedures, and it will take some time for it to be formally implemented. According to the opinions reflected by the masses, Nanning adopted two transitional measures to establish and reform. First, adjust the free parking time of road parking spaces. According to the survey, citizens and friends understand parking charges, but generally hope to eat a bowl of powder for free. After research, from today, the free parking time of motor vehicles in road berths will be extended from 15 minutes to 30 minutes. On the one hand, it can not only "stop quickly and go quickly" to improve the use efficiency of limited parking spaces. On the other hand, it can meet the public’s time requirement of "eating a bowl of powder". Second, optimize the setting of road parking spaces. In areas with high parking demand, such as primary and secondary schools, kindergartens, etc., reasonable limited-time free parking spaces will be added. These two measures will expire when the new "Nanning Road Parking Parking Parking Service Charging Scheme" is implemented.

  The third is to cancel the non-motor vehicle storage service fee.According to the problem of charging storage fees for non-motor vehicles strongly reflected by the masses in the survey, Nanning decided to cancel the existing parking storage service fees for non-motor vehicle parking areas from today, but continue to provide storage services, and the relevant expenses arising therefrom will be borne by the government.

  The fourth is to send an audit team to Huibo Company to carry out the audit.From May 21st to June 15th, the audit team conducted a special audit investigation on the operation and management of urban road parking spaces. During the audit, you are welcome to send letters, letters and calls to reflect the relevant situation to the audit team realistically.

  Fifth, Nanning Public Transport Group took over the operation and management of urban road parking spaces.From May 22nd, Huibo Company stopped operation, closed down for rectification and accepted audit, and Nanning Public Transport Group took over the operation and management of urban road parking spaces.

  The sixth is to suspend the inspection of the relevant responsible persons.The Nanning Municipal Committee decided to suspend five people, including Zhao Hui, member of the party group and vice president of Qingxiu District Court, Liang Fangyan, member of the party group and director of the Executive Board of Qingxiu District Court, Liu Xuan, member of the party group and deputy director of the Municipal and Landscape Administration Bureau, Lai Hong, member of the Party Committee and deputy general manager of Nanning Public Transport Group, and Guo Zhihua, secretary of the Party branch and chairman of Huibo Company, for inspection.

  The relevant departments are investigating and verifying the situation in depth, and will deal with it according to the results of the investigation and verification in accordance with the rules and regulations.

  The next step in Nanning:

  Nanning will adhere to the people-centered development idea, coordinate efficiency and fairness, vitality and order, continue to "visit people’s feelings, listen to people’s opinions and solve people’s worries", and constantly optimize the management of parking fees on urban roads to better meet the travel needs of the masses and improve the modernization level of urban governance system and governance capacity.

  First, complete the price adjustment as soon as possible.According to the statutory time requirements for major administrative decisions, Nanning will hold a price hearing on time on June 21st to fully listen to the opinions and suggestions from all walks of life. Carry out legal procedures such as price investigation, cost investigation, listening to social opinions, price hearing, legality review and collective deliberation according to law, optimize and adjust parking fee standards as soon as possible, and pay close attention to the introduction of a new "Nanning City Road Parking Parking Parking Service Charging Scheme".

  The second is to optimize and adjust the setting and management of parking spaces.Carry out sorting, investigation and evaluation of on-street parking spaces in Nanning, optimize the setting of on-street parking spaces, reasonably add free parking spaces, and effectively protect the parking needs and travel safety of citizens.

  The third is to comprehensively improve the standard service level.Optimize and improve the parking fee management service, rationally allocate and efficiently manage the parking resources in urban roads, and strengthen the on-the-job training and assessment of staff, so that everyone can enjoy better parking services.

  The fourth is to strengthen the supervision of road parking charges.Integrate more efforts to invest in the field of urban road parking management, strengthen inspection and supervision, strictly and fairly enforce the law, and severely investigate and punish arbitrary charges and other violations of price laws and policies.

  The fifth is to continue to respond to the concerns of the masses.Open channels for complaints to citizens and friends, make public telephone numbers for feedback, listen to the opinions and suggestions of citizens and friends, and take the initiative to accept social supervision. At the same time, standardize the complaint handling process, investigate and handle the problems fed back by the 12345 hotline, internet, letters and visits at the first time, rectify them in place at the first time, respond positively at the first time, and safeguard everyone’s legitimate rights and interests.

  On the Legality of Urban Road Parking Charge

  Road parking spaces are different from conventional parking lots, and the purpose is to meet the parking needs of citizens for temporary work. In order to avoid being occupied as a fixed parking space by neighboring merchants or residents for a long time, which will affect the parking of citizens who really need it, it is a common practice to improve the level of urban governance to properly charge parking spaces for the people on the premise of having a reasonable free parking time. Huibo Company was authorized by the municipal government to obtain the management right of urban road parking service in 2017. The charging standard is based on two policies. First, "Several Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting the Reform of Price Mechanism" is about "implementing a parking fee policy that is conducive to promoting the construction of parking facilities, alleviating urban traffic congestion, and effectively promoting the priority development of public transportation and the utilization of public road resources". Second, the Guiding Opinions of the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, and the Ministry of Transport on Further Improving the Charging Policy for Motor Vehicle Parking Services on "Accelerating the Implementation of Differentiated Charging. Encourage all localities to implement different parking service charges in different regions, different locations, different models and different time periods, curb unreasonable parking demand and alleviate urban traffic congestion.

  On Road Parking in NanningchargeThe problem of high standards

  Judging from the recent investigation in Nanning and the situation reflected by the masses, there are some problems in the current charging standard in Nanning, such as short 15-minute free parking time, high accumulated charges for the whole day and unreasonable classification of individual lots. At present, Nanning has taken two transitional measures to establish and reform.

  At present, Nanning has started a new round of procedures to optimize and adjust the road parking charge policy. According to the "Rules of Government Pricing Behavior", a hearing can be held within one month from the date of announcement. On May 21st, Nanning has issued relevant announcements.A hearing was held on June 21 to try to introduce a new policy at the end of June.

  About netizens’ comments on Qingxiu District Court and Huibo CompanyDoubts about signing the Memorandum of Cooperation

  Qingxiu District Court signed a Memorandum of Cooperation with Huibo Company, promising to open up a green channel and give "four priorities" treatment, which is contrary to the principle of fairness and justice.. The court independently exercises judicial power according to law, and should not give special care or commitment to a specific subject of a specific enterprise, but should uphold the principle of fairness, justice and equal treatment. On May 19th, after examination, the High Court of the Autonomous Region instructed Qingxiu District Court and Huibo Company to dissolve the Memorandum of Cooperation.

  Nanning also noticed that some netizens questioned whether Huibo Company would use the court to recover parking arrears by signing the Memorandum of Cooperation, or include those who defaulted on parking fees in the list of untrustworthy enforcers.Upon verification, at present, Qingxiu District Court has not received a lawsuit filed by Huibo Company for parking arrears, and no one has been directly included in the list of untrustworthy enforcers by Qingxiu District Court for parking arrears.According to the relevant regulations of the Supreme People’s Court, only when the person subjected to execution fails to perform the obligations specified in the effective legal documents and has legal circumstances, will he be included in the list of people subjected to dishonesty.

  According to the investigation, Qingxiu District Court signed the Memorandum of Cooperation with Huibo Company, the original intention of which was to use Huibo Company’s parking charge system to find the information of the executed person, improve the implementation rate and solve the problem of difficult implementation. However, this practice of Qingxiu District Court is very inappropriate. In view of the problems reflected in this matter, the courts in the city should profoundly learn lessons and draw inferences from others, constantly improve their ability to perform their duties according to law, and keep the last line of defense of fairness and justice.

  About the existence of Huibo CompanyThe problem of marking parking spaces privately

  On the problem of "Huibo Company has privately designated parking spaces". Nanning responded that the setting of parking spaces on urban roads was uniformly defined by the municipal public security traffic management department according to the "Specification for Setting Parking Spaces on Urban Roads".Huibo Company has no right to designate parking spaces without authorization.After verification, Huibo Company has not been found to have the above behavior.

  About "Parking spaces on urban roads in some areas"The setting is not scientific and reasonable enough "

  During the recent investigation, Nanning City found that there are indeed some places that are not scientific and reasonable enough. For example, some parking spaces are set on narrow roads, and some parking spaces are set too close to intersections, which affects the safety of vehicles and pedestrians.Next, Nanning plans to optimize and upgrade from the following three aspects:

  First, quickly carry out the investigation and rectification of on-street parking spaces.Nanning will organize the investigation and evaluation of parking spaces on urban roads in the whole city, focusing on the problems that affect the access of fire engines, the traffic safety sight distance, and the narrow carriageway and traffic congestion caused by netizens. According to the evaluation results, timely rectification will be carried out to eliminate the hidden dangers that affect the safe and smooth road traffic.

  The second is to add convenient parking spaces in specific areas.Focus on the surrounding areas of primary and secondary schools, kindergartens, etc., and reasonably add limited-time free parking spaces or parking belts to ensure the safety of citizens’ travel and parking demand.

  The third is to establish a dynamic adjustment mechanism for parking spaces.Comprehensive consideration of road and traffic conditions, parking demand, off-street parking facilities supply, parking utilization rate and other factors, fully listen to public opinions and suggestions, timely and dynamically optimize and adjust parking spaces.

  On the issue of "Huibo Company’s loan of 7.2 billion yuan"

  Some citizens and netizens pointed out that Huibo Company has a loan of 7.2 billion yuan, and Huibo Company has problems related to unreasonable charges, irregular charges by individual toll collectors and recovery of arrears. Nanning responded:

  After verification, citizens and netizens pointed out that Huibo Company had a loan of 7.2 billion yuan.This is the financial institution’s evaluation value of Huibo Company’s operating right income in the next 25 years according to a qualified third-party evaluation agency, and there is no actual loan of 7.2 billion yuan.At present,A special audit team has been sent to conduct a comprehensive audit of the company’s production and operation, loan financing and other issues.If the audit finds violations of laws and regulations, the relevant departments will deal with the relevant responsible persons according to the law. In response to related problems, the Nanning Municipal Government instructed relevant departments and bus groups to set up reforms to ensure that the rectification was in place.

  In view of the problems of arbitrary charges and irregular charges of individual toll collectors in Huibo Company, Nanning will seriously carry out special rectification and severely deal with those who violate the rules. At the same time, strengthen the education, training, supervision and management of staff, further improve the supervision system, plug loopholes, and effectively improve the quality and level of parking management services.

  In view of the problems related to the recovery of arrears left by Huibo Company, Nanning has set up a special disposal team to investigate the problems in a realistic way and put forward targeted solutions on the basis of widely listening to the rationalization opinions of the citizens.

How did the Anti-Japanese War transform old China?

  As early as 1939, Mao Zedong pointed out in the article "China Revolution and the Communist Party of China (CPC)" that the China Revolution had two tasks: national liberation and class liberation and modernization. The first task was completed with the establishment of People’s Republic of China (PRC) in 1949, and the second task continues today. In this way, the Anti-Japanese War is a part of the new-democratic revolution, which exists in the process of dual tasks at the same time. It is not only an anti-aggression war, but also a social revolution, political power building and cultural innovation. Only by comprehensively understanding the Anti-Japanese War can we understand the origin, national nature and development logic of the People’s Republic of China and link the historical continuity between the Anti-Japanese War and New China.

  Mao Zedong wrote in "On Protracted War": "Revolutionary war is an antitoxin, which not only eliminates the enemy’s poisonous flame, but also cleanses itself. Any just revolutionary war is very powerful. It can transform many things or open the way for transformation. The Sino-Japanese War will transform China and Japan; As long as China persists in the war of resistance and the United front, it will certainly be able to turn old Japan into new Japan and old China into new China, and people and things in China and Japan will be transformed after this war. " So, how did the Anti-Japanese War transform old China?

one

  During the eight-year national anti-Japanese war, the armed forces led by the Communist Party of China fought against the enemy more than 125,000 times, annihilating more than 520,000 Japanese troops and 1.18 million puppet troops. Compared with these flat data, the media prefer to talk about all kinds of guerrilla tactics in Shan Ye’s dense forests, underground tunnels and green tents, but the media rarely touch on the ideological roots of these unconventional military means, that is, the line of national resistance proposed and implemented by the Communist Party of China, widely mobilize and organize the masses, take root in the countryside with the people, and surround the Japanese aggressors in the Wang Yang sea of the people’s war. This series of practices has completely changed the fragmented situation of "what is Dili for me" in the traditional society of China, and the regime has the ability to absorb grassroots resources and mobilize grassroots people for the first time. Liang Shuming concluded in "The Road to the Founding of the People’s Republic": "It turns out that groups cause struggles, and struggles promote groups. Group is actually associated with struggle, while laxity is related to peace. " It is at the critical juncture of national peril that the CPC mobilized the broad masses of peasants by means of class struggle, integrated resources with high degree of organization, flexible representation and super action, and finally completed the transformation of modern countries. The people are closely related to the fate of the country, and the country finally obtains its reality.

  During the Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese Communist Party developed 19 base areas behind enemy lines, covering an area of nearly 1 million square kilometers and a population of nearly 100 million. The base areas behind enemy lines have made remarkable achievements in economy, politics and culture, and laid the basic form of modern China. Politically, a "three-thirds system" democratic regime was established and three large-scale democratic elections were held. In order to let the illiterate peasants truly master politics, the base areas adopted election methods such as voting, drawing circles, marking roads, burning incense holes, throwing beans, decentralized voting, and moving ballot boxes. Qin Jin ballad sings: "Jin Doudou, Yindoudou and Doudou can’t vote casually, choose the right person, do a good job, and vote in the bowl of good people". For this reason, American journalist Smedley once described the bean selection of farmers in Jinzhong in "Battle Hymn of China", thinking that this is a more thorough universal suffrage than Britain and the United States. Economically, the base areas should adjust their strategies to reduce rents and interest rates in a timely manner to safeguard the anti-Japanese democratic United front. The Yan ‘an Mass Production Movement made the labor field public by means of political mobilization, and the military and civilians worked together, and leading cadres and ordinary people worked together, which not only successfully overcame material shortage, but also created equal politics in Yan ‘an period. The movement of reforming loafers has made labor a means to realize self-worth, and workers have gained dignity and hope for survival. Culturally, literature and art serving the workers, peasants and soldiers has become the basic principle of literature and art in the new China. The new literature and art, in a way that people like it, makes ordinary people "turn over" and "turn over their hearts" at the same time, shaping a new socialist.

  Carlson, the captain of the US Marine Corps and a close confidant of President Roosevelt, went to Yan ‘an to observe and understand, and his attitude towards the Chinese Communist Party changed dramatically. Even right-wingers like Wilson Peterkin, the third leader of the US military observation group in Yan ‘an, praised the efforts made by the Chinese Communist Party at the grassroots level. Si Nuo’s Red Star over China regards Yan ‘an as a new beginning of Chinese civilization, while Latimer regards Yan ‘an as a continuation of China’s kingly way. However, the facts that even foreigners have seen are today framed as disgusting. "To destroy people and govern the country, we must first go to its history; It simplifies the war of resistance to Japan into a human tragedy or pure violence of "tearing the devil by hand", and consciously obliterates and ignores the class liberation, social revolution and political power construction in the anti-Japanese democratic base areas, which is the first nothingness in the memory of the current war of resistance to Japan.

  After World War I, the geopolitical pattern of the world has undergone great changes: the decline of Europe, the rise of the United States, the birth of the Soviet Union, and the rise of a new global order and global vision. China’s tenacious struggle in the Asian battlefield held back Japan’s main military power and prevented it from going north and south, which made great contributions to the world anti-fascist war and profoundly influenced the post-war world pattern. The victory of the Anti-Japanese War dealt a blow to the colonial system of the imperialist world, created an international environment for the post-war colonial and semi-colonial liberation movement, and effectively rebuilt the world order. Japanese historian Yu Nabarun compares China’s war of resistance against Japan to playing chess, while Japan’s attack is similar to playing chess, which vividly reveals the differences of war thinking modes between China and Japan. It is with the help of grasping the world situation that the CCP can find opportunities in the unbalanced geographical pattern and finally win the war. It is undoubtedly the second nihility of the war of resistance against Japan to obliterate China’s world vision and efforts to rebuild the world order, ignore the Wang Daoism and civilization view of "Long live the great unity of the people of the world", turn it into narrow nationalism and pure hatred of Japan, and automatically give up China’s right to speak internationally.

The American "Dixie Mission" in China military uniform

  The essence of talking about national liberation while ignoring class liberation and social revolution is to deny the unique modernization road of socialist China. Only talking about nationalism without talking about China’s revolutionary world vision and civilization concept will certainly encourage China’s threat theory and consolidate the existing hegemonic order. The essence of the struggle for the memory of the Anti-Japanese War is the difference between the concept of state and the concept of development. When we understand how all kinds of realistic political forces make history "diverted", crooked ways and evil ways can no longer be concealed.

Governing the country according to law must first adhere to the constitution.

Reading tips

The Fourth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee took "ruling the country according to law" as the theme for the first time, and clearly and comprehensively promoted the rule of law, built Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s legal system and built a socialist country ruled by law.

"Improve the socialist legal system with Chinese characteristics with the Constitution as the core and strengthen the implementation of the Constitution."

"To adhere to the rule of law, we must first adhere to the constitution, and to adhere to the rule of law must first govern according to the constitution."

"Improve the constitutional implementation and supervision system, improve the constitutional supervision system of the National People’s Congress and its Standing Committee, and improve the procedural mechanism of constitutional interpretation."

……

The series of statements in the communiqué of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee are raising the full implementation of the Constitution to a new level, and have laid down a clear "road map" for comprehensively promoting and governing the country according to the Constitution, and then fully implementing the basic strategy of governing the country according to law.

党内重要文件首提“依宪治国”

党的十八届四中全会闭幕了,一张依法治国的新的“路线图”也由此展开。

“坚持依法治国首先要坚持依宪治国,坚持依法执政首先要坚持依宪执政。”这是新中国成立以来,中国共产党第一次在重要文件里明确提出“依宪治国”和“依宪执政”的概念。

著名法学家郭道晖对此格外看重。他和李步云、江平一起被学界尊称为中国“法治三老”,他说:“这是公报里一个重要的亮点,也是最高领袖总书记在几次会议上提到的。”

的确,当选中共中央总书记刚刚20天,最高领袖就在纪念现行宪法公布施行30周年大会上提出:“依法治国,首先是依宪治国;依法执政,关键是依宪执政”。今年9月他在全国人民代表大会成立60周年大会讲话中再次强调这一理念。

关注有关信息,多位专家认为,这次四中全会公报给出了一个明确的信号,只有推进依宪治国和依宪执政,才能将形式上的法治逐步上升为实质上的法治。

上海交通大学凯原法学院院长季卫东解读认为,对于党来说,依宪治国是一个要不要把统治建立在共识的基础上的问题,要不要履行对人民的承诺的问题,要不要使得整个法律体系不会发生矛盾、一以贯之的问题,更重要的是要不要保障人的基本权利。

Xiaomei Liu, an associate researcher at the Institute of International Law of China Academy of Social Sciences, believes that the leadership of the Party, the people being the masters of the country and the rule of law can form a platform by governing the country according to the Constitution, and the three can be unified under the Constitution.

Another expert explained that the life of law lies in its implementation, and the constitution is no exception. Without the comprehensive and effective implementation of the constitution, the goal of governing the country according to law cannot be truly realized. How the constitution is implemented can be regarded as a "yardstick" for governing the country according to law.

Insisting on governing the country according to the constitution still faces challenges and problems in concrete practice. Han Dayuan, a professor at the Law School of Renmin University of China, said in an interview with Xinhua News Agency that civil servants, especially some senior cadres, have a weak constitutional concept, a weak constitutional consciousness and a lack of constitutional self-confidence on issues related to the core values and interests of the country, which leads to confusion of social values, damage to constitutional authority, and the phenomenon that the society does not act in accordance with the Constitution from time to time.

Mo jihong, vice president of china law society Constitutional Law Research Association, thinks that governing the country according to the constitution mainly refers to the specific strategies and methods of governing the country according to law. Governing the country according to law means that under the leadership of the party, the people are the masters of the country and govern the country according to the law, and the premise is the leadership of the party, and the key point is to govern the country according to the constitution.

Mo jihong said that every piece of legislation put forward in the communique is in line with the spirit of the Constitution. If legislation is not based on the Constitution, the Constitution will be shelved. Therefore, the communiqué of the Fourth Plenary Session particularly emphasized the guiding role of the Constitution in legislative work. To govern the country according to the constitution, we should do a good job in several tasks: constitutional implementation, constitutional interpretation and constitutional legislation.

Improve the constitutional supervision system, and the unconstitutional review will be ready.

The communiqué of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee put forward: "Improve the system of constitutional implementation and supervision, and improve the system of constitutional supervision of the National People’s Congress and its Standing Committee".

This is the first time that the "constitutional supervision system" was written into the important document of the the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China Plenary Session after it was written into the 1982 Constitution.

"A timely investigation of unconstitutional acts is better than a thousand lectures on constitutional provisions and values." According to experts, during the 32 years since the "constitutional supervision system" entered the constitution, there has not been a constitutional review of a certain law, normative document or one of its provisions in China.

In this context, the new formulation of perfecting this system in the communique is particularly interesting. Among them, around "why should we implement constitutional supervision? Who will supervise? How to supervise? " Relevant experts made an interpretation.

"Without the supervision system, the constitution is a constitution without teeth." Li Buyun, a member of the Honorary Faculty of China Academy of Social Sciences, believes that "to establish the authority of constitutional laws, we must establish a constitutional supervision system."

Guo Daohui, on the other hand, said that some laws and regulations and red-headed documents that only take care of the narrow interests of the department and local area, but infringe on the interests of the whole and citizens, and some administrative laws and regulations are ultra vires and violate the legislative procedures in formulating procedures, which are essentially unconstitutional.

The top leadership of the country has noticed that unconstitutional situations exist in different degrees throughout the country. On the 30th anniversary of the promulgation and implementation of the current Constitution, when talking about the shortcomings and problems in the implementation of the Constitution, the Supreme Leader pointed out that "the main performance is that the supervision mechanism and specific system to ensure the implementation of the Constitution are still not perfect".

At present, there are two kinds of unconstitutional review systems in the world, one is the unconstitutional review system of ordinary courts, and the other is the unconstitutional review system of specialized agencies, the names of which are mostly constitutional courts or constitutional committees.

Articles 62 and 67 of the Constitution of People’s Republic of China (PRC) clearly stipulate that one of the functions and powers of the National People’s Congress and its Standing Committee is to "supervise the implementation of the Constitution".

To improve this system, people in the legal field have concentrated their opinions on setting up a special constitutional supervision institution in the National People’s Congress.

Some experts pointed out that a basic common sense of constitutional science is that the ruling of constitutional disputes by the subject of constitutional supervision and unconstitutional review must be legally binding on all public authorities in the country, otherwise the relevant ruling will not be a real constitutional ruling.

A representative idea is that, on the basis of the existing nine special committees of the National People’s Congress, a constitutional supervision committee, composed of members of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress and the most qualified jurists, can be set up to put forward opinions on unconstitutional review and report them to the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC), and finally the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress will discuss and decide.

"It is not of great significance to conduct an abstract review of the constitution, because it is unlikely that there will be a blatant violation of the explicit provisions of the Constitution." Ji Weidong believes that the unification of the legal system and the protection of human rights should be the two most important functions of unconstitutional review.

Improve the procedural mechanism of constitutional interpretation and make the constitution "live"

It is noteworthy that the Central Plenary Session with the theme of ruling the country according to law proposed to "improve the procedural mechanism of constitutional interpretation".

Ma Huaide, vice president of China University of Political Science and Law, explained: "This is a brand-new formulation, which puts forward specific requirements for the interpretation procedure of the Constitution. In fact, it is to make the Constitution’ live’."

"Many provisions of the Constitution are principled provisions and need to be explained in specific implementation." Mo jihong said that without constitutional interpretation, the implementation of the Constitution would fail.

Qin Qianhong, a professor at Wuhan University, believes that when the reform enters the deep water stage, there will often be "fights" between legislation and legislative and judicial interpretations. In order to unify the legal system, there must be a unified interpretation. No one can have the right to interpret the constitution, and everyone is a constitutional judge.

"In 1982, the Constitution was revised many times, which adapted to the development of the country and society to a certain extent. However, not all problems must be solved through constitutional amendment, and establishing a constitutional interpretation mechanism is one way. " Qian Hongdao, a professor at Zhejiang University, said.

Constitutional interpretation is considered as a shortcoming of the current rule of law construction by the legal circles. According to Article 67 of China’s Constitution, the first power exercised by the NPC Standing Committee is to "interpret the Constitution", but the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) has not exercised this power for many years.

Formulating the Constitutional Interpretation Procedure Law has become an important voice in the legal field in recent years, and some experts are committed to seeking the idea of "perfecting the constitutional interpretation procedure mechanism" on the basis of existing laws.

Focusing on the subject of constitutional interpretation, Wang Gongyi, former director of the Research Office of the Ministry of Justice, said: "We have a problem now, that is, replacing legal interpretation with a large number of judicial interpretations, and sometimes even replacing constitutional interpretation, which is not in line with the law."

Another jurist pointed out that under the current constitution and people’s congress system, it is absolutely impossible for ordinary courts (including the Supreme People’s Court) to interpret the constitution.

Focusing on activating the existing system or mechanism, experts suggest that the mechanism stipulated in Article 90 of the Legislative Law can be effectively linked with the constitutional interpretation.

Article 90 of the Legislative Law stipulates that five major organs may request constitutional review of regulations. These five organs include the State Council, the Central Military Commission (CMC), the Supreme People’s Court, the Supreme People’s Procuratorate and the standing committees of people’s congresses of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government.

The article also stipulates that citizens can also put forward suggestions for constitutional review to the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC): "If they think that administrative regulations, local regulations, autonomous regulations and separate regulations are in conflict with the Constitution or laws, they can submit a written request for review to the NPC Standing Committee, and the working organs of the Standing Committee will distribute it to the relevant special committees for review and comments."

Lin Laifan, a professor of constitutional law in Tsinghua University, thinks that citizens can activate the "procedural mechanism of constitutional interpretation" with the help of individual cases, because this mechanism is closely related to citizens’ interests and has sufficient motivation to activate constitutional interpretation.

What does "the leadership of the party" express in the communique for 13 times?

In the communiqué of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee with more than 5,000 words, there were 13 times of "Party leadership". Experts believe that this shows that the rule of law construction in China aims at strengthening the leadership of the Party, rather than promoting the Western-style political system.

"The leadership of the party is the most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and the most fundamental guarantee of socialist rule of law." This important concept was written in the communique for the first time, and it was put forward: "It is a basic experience in the construction of socialist rule of law in China to implement the party’s leadership in the whole process and all aspects of governing the country according to law."

Experts interpret that this is the first time to clarify the relationship between party leadership and governing the country according to law in the form of plenary documents, and to clarify the party’s position in governing the country according to law.

Ma Huaide, vice president of China University of Political Science and Law and professor of administrative law, believes that China has established the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leading position in the Constitution, and upholding the leadership of the Party is the proper meaning in promoting the rule of law.

The communique pointed out that it is necessary to strengthen and improve the party’s leadership over the rule of law and implement the party’s leadership throughout the whole process of comprehensively promoting the rule of law.

"Implementing the Party’s leadership in the whole process of comprehensively promoting the rule of law" is interpreted by experts as four major responsibilities: leading legislation, ensuring law enforcement, supporting the judiciary and taking the lead in obeying the law. The relationship between "the leadership of the party" and governing the country according to law is clearly defined, from the concept declaration level to the responsibility level. This clarity itself is the adherence to the concept of governing the country according to law.

In the view of Chun Wong, president of China University of Political Science and Law and vice president of china law society, the leadership of the Party used to be mainly ideological, political and organizational, but we neglected that there is another kind of leadership, that is, the leadership of the Party is realized through the formulation and implementation of the Constitution and laws.

At the legislative level, in February this year, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said at the second meeting of the Central Leading Group for Deepening Reform that all major reforms should be based on the law and ensure that reforms are promoted on the track of the rule of law. The person in charge of the research office of the the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) Legal Affairs Commission said that after the CPC Central Committee has made political decisions, it should first legislate and then implement them to ensure that all reform measures are carried out on the track of the rule of law.

Ruling by law requires both the party to govern the country according to the constitution and laws, and the party to govern the party according to the internal laws and regulations of the party. The communique further clarified that "leading cadres at all levels should take the lead in obeying the law, take the lead in handling affairs according to law, and must not exercise their power illegally, let alone substitute words for laws, suppress laws with power, and bending the law."

"Take the effectiveness of the rule of law construction as an important part of measuring the performance of leading bodies and leading cadres at all levels, and incorporate it into the performance appraisal index system, and take whether you can abide by the law and act according to law as an important part of inspecting cadres." Experts believe that this clear requirement of the plenary session will undoubtedly further improve party member cadres’ legal thinking and ability to handle affairs according to law.

Empty cars are overloaded? There are many problems behind "light goods"

  CCTV News:Pay attention to a kind of truck that you will see in the city — — Blue brand light goods are light trucks with blue license plates. Compared with medium and heavy trucks with yellow cards, some cities in China have no restrictions on blue light goods. Since January 1st this year, the transportation department has also cancelled the freight qualification certificate and vehicle operation certificate of blue light goods, and drivers can drive as long as they have a driver’s license for small cars. The data shows that in 2018, the national sales volume of light trucks was nearly 400,000 units. In the first quarter of this year, the sales volume increased by more than 10% year-on-year. However, light goods are light, that is, cars are relatively light, and the goods pulled must not be too heavy. However, people who buy trucks generally want to pull more goods to earn money. In this way, some people secretly came up with a way to produce light trucks that can pull more goods, and many people bought them. However, there were also many subsequent troubles.

  It is "annoying" to buy a car and run on the road.

  The 38-year-old Leevane Hsiung’s hometown is in northern Shaanxi. At the beginning of this year, he went to Xi ‘an. At the suggestion of a friend, he bought a truck and started running transportation. After running for a while, Li Wenxiong discovered that what he was doing was worrying.

  Running transportation was a serious business, but how did it become a thief? Leevane Hsiung said that the problem lies in the weight of this truck. He bought a light truck, the length of which must be limited to 4.2 meters, and it can hang the same blue brand as ordinary cars, so the industry also calls this kind of car 4.2 m blue brand light. According to the regulations, in addition to limiting the length, light trucks also limit the total mass, that is, the total cargo weight, which can not exceed 4.5 tons at most. For this truck in Leevane Hsiung, the door and driving license are marked with a total mass of 4,495 kilograms, that is to say, after loading the goods, the total cargo weight can not exceed 4.495 tons. But Leevane Hsiung said, this label is a complete cover.

  Leevane Hsiung, the owner of the truck, has a self-weight of 4.2 tons. The total weight limit of the truck is 4.495 tons, minus 4.2 tons, only 300 kilograms can be pulled. There are three people in the cab of this car. If you sit on two people, I’m sorry, maybe you don’t want to pull the goods.

  The marked weight is 2.565 tons and the actual weight is 4.32 tons.

  However, the reporter noticed that the nameplate and driving license of Leevane Hsiung vehicles showed that the kerb quality of this truck, that is, its self-weight was 2.565 tons. How could Leevane Hsiung say that its actual self-weight was more than 4 tons? Facing the reporter’s question, Leevane Hsiung drove an empty car and randomly found a weighing station.

  Indeed, the weighing shows that the actual weight of the empty truck has reached 4.32 tons, and this weighing is only under the condition that the fuel tank is half full. Leevane Hsiung said that when running and transporting on the road, the fuel tank was filled with 70 kilograms and the water tank was filled with 200 kilograms. In this way, even if one kilogram of goods was not pulled, it was already overloaded. It’s not just Leevane Hsiung who encounters this dilemma. It’s another owner of Xi ‘an, Wang Xiangdong. This is a blue brand light truck purchased by Wang Xiangdong at the end of 2018, produced by Sichuan Nanjun Automobile Group. The maximum total weight limit of goods marked on the truck door and driving license is 4.495 tons. What’s the actual situation?

  The truck’s self-weight marked on the certificate and driving license is 2.72 tons, but the actual self-weight has reached 5.8 tons, which is also inconsistent with the real situation. According to the tonnage limit of light trucks, even if all the fuel tanks and water tanks are removed, it is overloaded.

  During the interview, the reporter just caught up with Wang Xiangdong and bought a new blue brand light truck, which is the Dexuan X9 dump truck produced by a local enterprise in Shaanxi. The certificate shows that the vehicle weighs 2,600 kilograms, but the actual weight is far more than that.

  Since there is a problem with the vehicle’s own load, why do car owners buy such vehicles?

  The car owners are willing to fight for the moment.

  Small car, flexibility and freedom, convenient access to the city, suitable for urban distribution and low cost, all these advantages make light trucks popular, but they also make some people think badly of temporary benefits. Insiders told reporters that the original positioning of this light truck was to transport lightweight goods such as daily necessities and household appliances, so the self-weight was low. However, in order to seize the transportation market, some automobile manufacturers violate the announcement in actual production, and increase the load capacity of vehicles by weighting them, so as to pull more goods.

  In addition to manufacturing, vehicle registration and registration, relevant laws and regulations also have clear requirements for technical parameters of motor vehicles. The motor vehicle registration regulations revised and issued by the public security department in 2012 clearly pointed out that the relevant technical data of motor vehicles are inconsistent with the announcement data; Not to apply for registration. However, how do the owners of these vehicles with inconsistent self-weight and actual self-weight register and get the license plate?

  According to the owner, in fact, when buying a car, both parties are tacitly aware that the owner pays the money and the salesperson is responsible for licensing. Take Wang Xiangdong as an example, when buying this Dexuan X9 dump truck, in addition to the normal car payment, it also paid 2,500 yuan as the license fee.

  Not only this sales company, but also the reporter interviewed randomly in the largest light truck sales market in Xi ‘an, and all the salespeople they contacted gave a promise to get on the card.

  On-line testing date must be "exquisite" on Saturday.

  Why did it go online on Saturday? The salesperson did not disclose it. Is it really what they said? The reporter decided to follow Wang Xiangdong’s field investigation. About ten days after getting the new car back, the salesperson called and asked Wang Xiangdong to go online for testing on April 27th, and said that all the materials had been handed over to the intermediary and the relationship had been coordinated. Sure enough, it is Saturday. Early the next morning, Wang Xiangdong came to the inspection station designated by the sales staff, Shaanxi Yongzhi Motor Vehicle Inspection Station. There was already a long queue at the door, all of which were blue brand light vehicles similar to those in Wang Xiangdong. Wang Xiangdong got through to the intermediary.

  After a while, the intermediary called again. Wang Xiangdong pulled into the testing station yard and was greeted by a man in overalls.

  After confirming the basic information of the owner’s name and frame number, the man left a piece of material and opened it. Both the reporter and Wang Xiangdong were taken aback. It turned out that this was a pre-filled inspection list, and the kerb quality was self-weight. It was 2600kg, dated April 26th, one day earlier than the inspection date. According to the regulations, if a motor vehicle wants to be registered, it must pass the vehicle inspection, and the kerb quality of the truck is its own weight, which is a mandatory item. However, in Shaanxi Yongzhi Motor Vehicle Inspection Station, there was no inspection at all, so Wang Xiangdong got the inspection record sheet, and it was also a premature delivery certificate.

  After the initial inspection, there was a re-inspection. On April 29th, the reporter and Wang Xiangdong came to the inspection station again.

  The initial inspection of fraud and re-inspection do not check the weight.

  In this way, the truck successfully passed the so-called test and got the license plate and driving license. According to the regulations, the inspection agencies and the traffic management departments of public security organs should conduct supervision and inspection through remote audit, spot check and file review. An insider who used to be in charge of technical work at a testing station in Shaanxi told reporters that under normal circumstances, testing institutions should rest in Japan on Saturday, and choosing such a time period to license the problem vehicles is actually a tacit understanding reached between the regulatory authorities and testing institutions.

  If there is a problem in many links, the car will be checked on the road.

  The lack of supervision in the production process, the tacit understanding of truck owners and sales personnel, and the open cheating of testing institutions have made these problem vehicles drive on the road. However, the inherent problem of empty cars being overweight makes these vehicles face punishment all the time. During the interview, the light car originally purchased by Wang Xiangdong was seized by the traffic police because it was overloaded.

  It turns out that this truck in Wang Xiangdong can only pull 1.58 tons of goods according to regulations, but when the traffic police seized it, his car pulled nearly 14 tons of goods, which was seriously overloaded.

  After paying the fine, Wang Xiangdong drove the truck that was overloaded when it was empty. For him, only by continuing to run fast can he make up for the loss. Overloading, punishment and overloading, shippers are in this vicious circle every day, which also poses a great threat to the vehicle itself and road safety.

  Safety is no small matter "light goods" must be light.

  Professionals told reporters that, as we said just now, these vehicles whose actual weight is higher than the announced weight and are illegally produced and licensed are called "big tons and small labels" by people in the industry. Some car companies regard light goods as a selling point, and they have already exceeded the tonnage limit before leaving the factory. This is an open "secret" in the industry, which has spawned a gray interest chain of forging data and illegally licensing. The country has a series of laws, regulations and standards for trucks, from manufacturing, registration to road transportation. Its primary purpose is to ensure safety, vehicle safety, pedestrians safety and you and me safety. However, in the face of interests, security has been forgotten, supervision has become a decoration, and the system has become a dead letter. In order to change this distorted situation, it is necessary for all departments to work together, especially from the production and registration links, establish a traceability and backward investigation mechanism, strictly supervise and seriously pursue responsibility, create a safe travel environment, and let "light goods" really travel lightly.

Take a few small pills to keep fit. Is IQ tax charged?

  A Fang (a pseudonym) after 90 often feels tired. Last year, on the recommendation of a friend, an online consulting agency of nutrition collocation in personal tailor prepared some health products for him. "It’s a WeChat applet. It took a few minutes to do the questionnaire. According to the results, the platform gave me some health care products, including seaweed oil, vitamin E and other 5-minute pills." Five small pills a day, A Fang feels that the price is not expensive, and the first order can’t reach 700 yuan. Three months’ worth, and I haven’t finished eating for half a year. Although he didn’t see the effect of these nutritional supplements, he was psychologically satisfied.

  A Fang’s friend left a message for the qianjiang evening news Hour reporter, trying to confirm whether this little pill is reliable or not. "Is this an IQ tax?"

  Nutritionist’s statement:

  The conclusion of the questionnaire is unscientific.

  This online consulting organization of nutrition collocation in personal tailor takes WeChat as the main channel, carries out brand promotion through WeChat official account, and advertises in the circle of friends based on big data, and then uses the strong sociality of WeChat to push the brand to a wider audience. At the same time, it also opened up channels such as Tik Tok, Xiaohongshu and Tmall to capture the youth market.

  The founder of the agency mentioned in an interview with other media that "some people can’t keep eating vegetables and exercising every day. He must smoke, drink and eat fast food in his life, then we can recommend him to take some extra vitamins with the goal of making people healthier. "

  The reporter also spent a few minutes making a questionnaire, including topics such as eating habits and lifestyle. The questions are many and detailed, and some are indeed subjective.

  Finally, the platform for reporter personal tailor’s plan requires five kinds of drugs, with a quantity of three months and a cost of more than 600 yuan.

  Is the vitamin supplement obtained by this consultation reliable?

  After reading the complete questionnaire, Lu Yanxuan, a nutritionist at the Second Hospital of Zhejiang University, said: "The questions involved in the questionnaire are quite reasonable, and there is no problem from the evaluation point of view, but the conclusions drawn through these questions are not enough evidence."

  In other words, these surveys can’t determine what your body needs, and the conclusions drawn from them are too one-sided. For example, fatigue means that the body lacks some nutrients, which is unscientific.

  In her view, as long as you follow the Dietary Guidelines for China Residents (2022) issued by the China Nutrition Society on April 26th, 2022, you can achieve a balanced nutrition.

  "Many health care products, including nutritional supplements, are controversial. Whether they can prevent and alleviate diseases, there is no direct and specific conclusion." Lu Yanxi said.

  In fact, in the usual diet, nutrients are enough. For example, vitamin e exists in our usual cooking oil; Vitamin A can be taken from meat, eggs, milk and dark vegetables.

  Just eat reasonably at ordinary times.

  Special people should supplement nutrients.

  Lu Yan-fung’s conclusion is that a reasonable diet can satisfy nutrition and maintain good health, and no additional supplements are recommended.

  For example, too much calcium intake will interfere with the absorption of zinc and iron; Vitamins A and D are fat-soluble vitamins. If they are not easily metabolized, they may accumulate in the body and even have the risk of poisoning.

  "The dosage standard in China is different from that in foreign countries, so foreign health care products may not be suitable for Chinese." She said that even the most harmless probiotics that can regulate the intestines, everyone has different reactions to it, so you can’t blindly follow suit.

  But some special people really need to supplement nutrients, so they can eat some properly.

  Pregnant women, nursing mothers, young children, the elderly, etc., due to the high demand for some nutrients in special physiological periods, should often consult nutritionists, nutrition experts or doctors (hospitals, health centers) to make reasonable nutritional conditioning to ensure the nutritional needs in special physiological periods.

  The means of nutritional conditioning include diet, nutrient supplement, reasonable exercise and other measures.

  On the whole, Lu Yan-fung suggested that you should not eat health care products to supplement nutrients at will, and a reasonable diet can fully meet the nutrition. If you really want to supplement it, you need to supplement it scientifically and effectively under the guidance of professional doctors.

China’s job market continues to heat up, and enterprise recruitment and talent job hunting are "both in supply and demand"

  Since the beginning of the year, the level of macroeconomic prosperity has returned to the expansion range, driving the China job market to continue to heat up. The offline job fairs held by colleges and universities all over the country are crowded, and the online live broadcasts are continuous. Enterprise recruitment and talent job hunting show a booming trend of supply and demand, and the spring recruitment market is warm and harmonious.

  The "2023 Shanghai Spring Employment Promotion Special Action Large-scale Job Fair" kicked off on February 25th. The organizers carefully selected thousands of enterprises to recruit, providing more than 25,000 jobs, covering key industries such as advanced manufacturing, construction, scientific research and information technology, and setting up special recruitment areas for specialized and new "little giant" enterprises and employment trainee bases.

  The job fair attracted nearly 18,000 people, delivered more than 35,000 resumes, reached nearly 10,000 initial intentions, and more than 200,000 people participated in live post activities. The organizer said that the number of participants exceeded expectations, on the one hand, because online recruitment methods have been adopted for more than three years, and enterprises and job seekers have a strong desire to communicate face to face. More importantly, since the beginning of the year, all kinds of enterprises have been busy with production and development, and the recruitment demand has increased greatly.

  In addition to job fairs, Shanghai has also launched a new public recruitment platform online to build a "recruitment Taobao" for the market and job seekers, and will implement the "Shanghai Employment Promotion Regulations" on March 1 to provide legal protection for promoting high-quality and full employment.

  In addition, Shaanxi, Hebei, Jiangsu, Xinjiang and other places have also started large-scale talent recruitment fairs in the spring, using online and offline forms to attract many enterprises and job seekers to enter the market, and the labor market has shown a booming supply and demand situation. Colleges and universities all over the country also actively carry out the "warm heart action" to promote employment, seize the spring recruitment period, and provide diversified employment guidance services for college graduates.

  The analysis pointed out that since the beginning of the year, the level of macroeconomic prosperity has returned to the expansion range, driving the job market to heat up. In addition to consolidating existing employment and absorbing new jobs, we should also focus on the labor demand brought about by the expansion of service industry and industrial upgrading, and create more jobs for the flexible employment population of about 200 million.

Tickets are sold out, venues are full, and the performance market is booming.

Recently, the offline performance market has recovered rapidly, many large-scale concerts have been restarted, and major theaters have also ushered in a long-lost lively popularity.

At 7: 30 on the weekend, at the entrance of this theater in Nanshan District, Shenzhen, many spectators are queuing to enter. That night, a Chinese version of Broadway musical will be staged. The person in charge said that more than 1000 tickets have all been sold out.

In fact, one or two months after the Spring Festival is usually the off-season of the performance market. At present, a variety of offline performances including concerts, dramas, music festivals and talk shows have been staged one after another, and the performance market has ushered in a "good start".

Vigorous China Tourism Market is gradually picking up.

The catering industry is accelerating its recovery, and recently, the tourism market is gradually picking up. Not only the domestic tour after the Spring Festival is full of excitement, but also the consumers and practitioners in the outbound travel market are full of expectations.

Since the tourism recovery this year, the main scenic spot of Huanglong in Sichuan has received more than 102,000 tourists, an increase of more than 400% year-on-year. In Xiasi Ancient Town, Kaili, Guizhou, after the Spring Festival, the tourist flow in the scenic spot is still unabated, and the parking lot is full of tourist cars from all over the country.

Since China’s pilot restoration of the national travel agency’s business of outbound group tourism, the outbound tourism market has gradually warmed up. The market is constantly picking up, and some travel agencies have experienced a "shortage of tour guides". However, with the return of previous tour guides and the addition of fresh blood, this situation is gradually improving.

Philippine: Baguio holds Flower Festival and expects China tourists to return.

Not only domestic travel agencies are well prepared, but also various outbound destinations are using various ways to attract tourists from China.

Baguio City is located in the northern part of Luzon Island, Philippines, with a cool and pleasant climate. Local tourism practitioners expect China tourists to return to the Philippines as soon as possible.

China’s resumption of outbound travel has a positive impact on global tourism.

Recently, the United Nations World Tourism Organization also announced that the resumption of outbound travel in China has had a positive impact on the recovery of global tourism. Before the COVID-19 outbreak, China was the largest tourism market in the world. The recovery of domestic tourism in China will create a linkage effect for other economic sectors and bring greater vitality to China and even the global economy.
