The national conference on propaganda and ideological and cultural work was held in Beijing. The most important achievement of this conference was to formally put forward and systematically expound the cultural thought of the supreme leader, emphasizing "continuously strengthening the study, research and interpretation of the cultural thought of the supreme leader, and consciously implementing it in all aspects and the whole process of propaganda and ideological and cultural work". The cultural thought of the Supreme Leader is the cultural chapter of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, which provides a powerful ideological weapon and scientific action guide for doing a good job in propaganda and cultural work in the new era and new journey and shouldering a new cultural mission.

　　1. Deeply understand the great significance of the supreme leader’s cultural thought.

　　 　To realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must have theoretical thinking for a moment; Building a socialist modern country in an all-round way is inseparable from the guidance of scientific theory for a moment. In the field of cultural construction, it is necessary to lead by pluralism and neutrality, seek consensus in diversity, set the direction in change, establish the heart for the country and the soul for the nation, and it is even more inseparable from the shining of truth. In-depth study and implementation of the supreme leader’s cultural thought is of great practical significance and far-reaching historical significance for doing a good job in propaganda and ideological and cultural work in the new era and new journey, for building a strong country, for national rejuvenation, for raising the flag, and for long-term stability.

　　 　This means that Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era of enriching and developing the supreme leader has made new landmark achievements. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has put forward a series of new ideas, new ideas and new strategies in the aspects of reform, development and stability, internal affairs, foreign affairs and national defense, and governing the party, country and army, scientifically answering the questions of China, the world, the people and the times, and creating and constantly enriching and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era. The "Ten Definitions", "Fourteen Persistences" and "Thirteen Achievements" put forward by the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee summarized the main contents of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era. The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward "six musts", which outlined the world outlook, methodology and standpoint and method of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the supreme leader in the new era. The supreme leader’s thought of strengthening the army, economic thought, ecological civilization thought, diplomatic thought and rule of law thought formed in various fields have made its scientific theoretical system increasingly extensive and profound. The supreme leader’s cultural thought not only has the innovation and breakthrough in cultural theory, but also has the deployment requirements of cultural work layout, which indicates that our party’s understanding of the law of cultural construction in Socialism with Chinese characteristics has reached a new height, indicating that our party’s historical self-confidence and cultural self-confidence have reached a new height.It marks that the new ideas, new viewpoints and new conclusions of our party in the field of propaganda and ideological and cultural work in the new era have achieved a systematic leap and creative sublimation, making the theoretical system of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s ideological science of the supreme leader in the new era more systematic, comprehensive, logical, rich in connotation and internally unified.

　　 　This means that the party leadership’s propaganda and ideological and cultural work condenses the new essence of the times. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has placed propaganda and ideological and cultural work in an important position in governing the country, attended a series of important meetings, delivered a series of important speeches, and made a series of important instructions. He has made overall planning, classified guidance, deployment and promotion in various fields such as online information, literature and art, journalism, philosophy and social sciences, ideological and political education, and cultural inheritance and development, and guided the propaganda and ideological and cultural undertakings to achieve historic achievements and make historic changes in raising the flag and clearing the roots. In this process, the leadership, management, discourse, cultural self-confidence, new cultural mission and "two combinations" of ideological work have been put forward one after another and constantly improved. This series of theoretical creations has strung together the ideological development track from the original breakthrough of one thought point to the original breakthrough of many thought points, and then to the overall improvement of the ideological and theoretical system. It can be seen that the cultural thought of the supreme leader is the inevitable result of the continuous accumulation and sublimation of our party’s new ideas, new ideas and new judgments on cultural construction in the new era. This important thought fully reflects the fact that the theoretical achievements of cultural construction in the new era are becoming more and more perfect in systematization, physics and chemistry, which indicates that our party has reached a new height in its understanding of the law of cultural construction in Socialism with Chinese characteristics, its original contribution to Marxist cultural theory, and its historical and cultural self-confidence.It is a milestone in the development history of the party’s propaganda, ideological and cultural undertakings.

　　 　This means that the new era, the new journey and the construction of the modern civilization of the Chinese nation have created a new guide to action. It is our new cultural mission in the new era to continue to promote cultural prosperity, build a cultural power and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation at a new starting point. To accomplish this new mission, there are many new contradictions, new problems and new challenges, and there are laws to follow, which need to be guided by scientific theories. Under the guidance of the supreme leader’s cultural thought, we should better raise the banner, gather people’s hearts, educate new people, promote culture and display image, unify more than 98 million party member’s thoughts with those of the CPC Central Committee, lead more than 1.4 billion people’s thoughts under the banner of the Party, and unite the majestic forces to promote the construction of a strong country and national rejuvenation. In the international situation where the world changes rapidly in the past century and the international environment has undergone profound changes, we will not only strengthen our ambition to be Chinese, but also embrace all kinds of world civilizations with an open mind, and constantly enhance the national cultural soft power and the influence of Chinese culture. Under the new situation of the rapid development of information technology and the emergence of media matrix, we should better grasp the leadership, management and discourse power of ideological work in our hands, turn the variable of Internet into the increment of career development, and gather online and offline concentric circles. Under the guidance of the supreme leader’s cultural thought, we will better strengthen our cultural self-confidence, uphold openness and tolerance, persist in being upright and innovative, solve a series of problems faced by propaganda and ideological and cultural work with the wisdom of knowing change, the way to adapt to change and the courage to seek change, and open up a new world of career development.

　　2. Accurately grasp the distinctive features of the supreme leader’s cultural thought.

　　 　Accurately grasping the important characteristics of the supreme leader’s cultural thought is the key to fully understand the core essence and spiritual essence of this important thought. The cultural thought of the supreme leader is rich in connotation and profound in exposition. It is a theoretical summary of the practical experience of the party’s leadership culture construction in the new era, which enriches and develops Marxist cultural theory and realizes the internal unity of scientificity, popularity, practicality and openness.

　　 　Access to truth, through rigorous scientific. The supreme leader’s cultural thought, with scientific theoretical category, strict logical structure and profound historical vision, incorporated cultural self-confidence into Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s "four self-confidences", incorporated the adherence to the socialist core value system into the basic strategy of adhering to and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, clearly publicized the mission and task of ideological and cultural work "raising the banner, gathering people’s hearts, cultivating new people, rejuvenating culture and displaying image", and put forward a major conclusion of "two combinations". He profoundly answered the important theoretical and practical questions such as what flag to raise, what road to take, what principles to adhere to and what goals to achieve in building Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture. This important thought is a systematic, logical and interconnected scientific theoretical system, which enriches and develops Marxist cultural theory and broadens the road of cultural development in Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

　　 　The people’s nature of serving the people and casting souls. Comrade Mao Zedong once pointed out at the Yan ‘an Forum on Literature and Art: "The question of why people are a fundamental question and a question of principle." The cultural thought of the supreme leader always adheres to the mass viewpoint and mass line, which fully embodies the basic principle of historical materialism that the people are the creators of history. This important idea requires that we should persist in serving the people and socialism, that a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend, that we should persist in creative transformation and innovative development, and that we should constantly create new glories of Chinese culture. This important idea requires adhering to the people-centered creative orientation, putting the people in the highest position in the heart, taking people’s satisfaction and dissatisfaction as the highest standard to test art, and creating more excellent works that meet people’s cultural needs and enhance people’s spiritual strength. This important idea requires that social benefits should be put in the first place, social benefits and economic benefits should be unified, cultural undertakings and cultural industries should be developed in an all-round way, and more and better spiritual food should be provided for the people.

　　 　The practicality of achieving the purpose of the body and connecting the body with the use. Marx said, "All social life is practical in essence", "Philosophers only explain the world in different ways, and the problem is to change the world". The viewpoint of practice is the basic viewpoint of Marxist epistemology, and practicality is a remarkable feature that distinguishes Marxist theory from other theories. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, with the historical initiative, extraordinary theoretical courage, outstanding political wisdom and strong mission of Marxist politicians, thinkers and strategists, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has adhered to and strengthened the Party’s overall leadership over propaganda and ideological and cultural work, strengthened his self-confidence in continuing the history and culture, charted a blueprint path for building a strong cultural country, made clear the mission and tasks of propaganda and ideological and cultural work, and pushed the propaganda and ideological and cultural construction to open a new chapter. The cultural thought of the supreme leader has both epistemology and methodology, both the overall guidance at the macro level and the practical path at the specific level, which shows the distinctive characteristics of this important thought, and shows great power in the construction of socialist culture in China.

　　 　Keep pace with the times and develop continuously. Time is the mother of thought and practice is the source of theory. "Marx has repeatedly warned people that Marxist theory is not a dogma, but a guide to action and must develop with the changes in practice." The cultural thought of the supreme leader is an open and continuous ideological system, which will be enriched and developed with the deepening of practice. From August 2018, the National Conference on Propaganda and Ideological Work summarized the regular understanding of propaganda and ideological work with "nine persistences" to the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, which focused on cultural construction from five aspects; From the profound exposition of "two combinations", especially "the second combination" and the construction of the modern civilization of the Chinese nation in June 2023 to the important requirements of "seven efforts" in this important instruction, the connotation is very rich and the discussion is extremely profound. These new ideas, viewpoints and conclusions are the theoretical summary of the practical experience in the construction of the Party’s leadership culture in the new era, and are the fundamental follow-up for doing a good job in propaganda and ideological and cultural work, which must be persistently implemented and continuously enriched and developed for a long time.

　　3. Based on the new era and new journey, thoroughly study, publicize and implement the cultural thought of the supreme leader.

　　 　The value of theory lies in guiding practice, and the purpose of learning lies in application. In the new era and new journey, to study, publicize and implement the cultural thoughts of the supreme leader, we should base ourselves on the new situation and new tasks of accelerating the evolution of the world’s unprecedented great changes in the past century, the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation entering a critical period, and the coexistence of strategic opportunities and risk challenges, and work hard to learn, believe and use, deepen the internalization and transformation, continuously improve the political position, deepen understanding and recognition, and promote the implementation of the transformation.

　　 　Raise your political position. Political position is the most fundamental, basic and important position for party member cadres. It is necessary to thoroughly study and implement the cultural thought of the Supreme Leader at a height related to the party’s future and destiny, strengthen the party’s overall leadership over propaganda and ideological and cultural work, implement political responsibilities, resolutely and effectively prevent and resolve ideological risks, and solidly promote cultural construction in Socialism with Chinese characteristics. We should thoroughly study and implement this important thought from the perspective of national foundation and national movement, deeply realize that "spiritual poverty is not socialism", widely practice socialist core values, and improve the construction of innovative spiritual civilization. Standing at a height related to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we should thoroughly study and implement this important thought, constantly consolidate the common ideological foundation of the United struggle of the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country, cast a solid sense of the community of the Chinese nation, and make all ethnic groups hold together like pomegranate seeds in the big family of the Chinese nation, thus providing strong ideological guarantee, strong spiritual strength and favorable cultural conditions for comprehensively promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

　　 　Deepen understanding and recognition. Only by understanding can we agree; Only when you agree with it will you consciously practice it. It is necessary to strengthen the comprehensive understanding and mastery of the cultural thought of the Supreme Leader, and link it with Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era, instead of studying it unilaterally; Learn by systematically grasping its basic viewpoints and scientific system, rather than learning piecemeal; Develop geoscience in combination with the propaganda of ideological and cultural work in the new era, rather than static geoscience. Grasp the Marxist standpoint and method that runs through it, and learn the housekeeping skills of doing a good job in propaganda and ideological and cultural work. Deeply understand the decisive significance of "two establishment", constantly strengthen "four consciousnesses", strengthen "four self-confidences", achieve "two maintenance", and enhance the political recognition of the supreme leader’s cultural thought; Deeply understand the essence and charm of this important thought and enhance ideological identity; Deeply understand the milestone significance of this important thought in the development history of Marxist cultural theory, and enhance theoretical recognition; Deeply understand the people’s feelings and mission of this important thought, and enhance emotional identity.

　　 　Promote the implementation of transformation. Only by transforming and implementing ideas can we constantly show our great power. We should consciously use the supreme leader’s cultural thought to guide the practice of cultural construction in the new era, master the leadership methods, thinking methods and working methods contained therein, and constantly improve our political ability, thinking ability and practical ability to do a good job in propaganda and ideological and cultural work in the new era and new journey. Apply the cultural thought of the supreme leader to the implementation of the strategic deployment of cultural construction at the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, earnestly enhance the sense of responsibility and mission, and implement the requirements of various tasks in a precise and detailed manner with the spirit of nailing nails. Turn the learning achievements into a strong driving force to overcome difficulties and start businesses, be good at using this important idea to solve various contradictions in the field of propaganda, ideological and cultural work, consolidate and expand the mainstream ideological public opinion in the new era, and show new weather and new actions in the practice of building a socialist cultural power and building a modern civilization of the Chinese nation.

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.

　　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.

　　At the press conferenceNanning pays attention to the general public and netizens.Respond one by one ↓ ↓

　　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.

　　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?

　　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 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.

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.

Since the beginning of this year, in the face of the complicated domestic and international economic situation, China’s foreign trade has withstood the pressure. In the first quarter, the total import and export volume reached 9.42 trillion yuan, up 10.7% year-on-year. The overall start was good, which laid a good foundation for achieving the annual target and fully reflected the resilience of foreign trade development.

We should also see that China’s foreign trade development environment is becoming more severe and complicated, and it faces many risks and challenges. A number of experts said that we should do a good job in stabilizing foreign trade policies, study effective new policies, and strive to keep foreign trade running in a reasonable range throughout the year.

Steady foreign trade policy continues to exert strength.

In the first quarter, despite the complicated and severe international environment, China’s export enterprises had a strong ability to adapt to changes in external demand. At the same time, the policy of stabilizing foreign trade continued to exert strength, and the effect of building the "Belt and Road" continued to emerge. The new foreign trade format developed rapidly and achieved a steady start on the whole.

"In the case of a high base, China’s foreign trade still maintains a double-digit rapid growth, which fully reflects the resilience of China’s foreign trade development." Liu Xiangdong, deputy director of the Economic Research Department of China International Economic Exchange Center, said.

Data show that in the first quarter, China’s industrial export delivery value increased by 14.4% year-on-year, and continued to maintain rapid growth. Among them, export delivery value’s automobile manufacturing industry and special equipment manufacturing industry both increased by more than 20%. "China has a complete industrial system and strong supporting capacity, which can quickly adapt to changes in international market demand, and foreign export demand for industrial products in China has expanded." Fu Linghui, director of the National Statistics Department of the National Bureau of Statistics, said.

After entering March, the local cluster epidemic situation in China showed the characteristics of multiple points, wide coverage and frequent occurrence, and the supply chain of foreign trade industry chain was affected to some extent. "At present, China’s foreign trade development is under great pressure." Bai Ming, deputy director of the International Market Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce, said that on the one hand, the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic continues, the bottleneck of the global supply chain has not been alleviated, and the shortage of important raw materials such as chips continues to plague foreign trade enterprises; On the other hand, geopolitical risks are high, commodity prices are rising, and global economic and trade recovery is facing greater uncertainty.

China has issued a series of policy measures to help small and medium-sized foreign trade enterprises improve their production and business environment, and achieved certain results.

Regional cooperation is deepening.

On January 1st this year, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) came into effect for 10 member countries. Up to now, the number of effective members of RCEP has reached 12.

Since the entry into force of RCEP, dividends have begun to appear. Customs statistics show that in the first quarter, China’s total import and export value to the other 14 member countries of RCEP exceeded 2 trillion yuan, up 6.9% year-on-year, accounting for 30.4% of China’s total foreign trade value in the same period. Among them, the year-on-year growth rate of import and export volume with South Korea, Malaysia and other countries exceeded double digits.

Judging from local conditions, the effective implementation of RCEP has played a positive role in stabilizing foreign trade. Take Shandong as an example. In the first quarter, Jinan Customs, Qingdao Customs and Shandong CCPIT issued 24,000 RCEP certificates of origin, ranking first in the country. Shandong’s import and export volume to other 14 member countries of RCEP increased by 20.9% compared with the same period of last year.

According to statistics, in the first quarter, Chinese enterprises used RCEP to import 6.7 billion yuan and enjoy import tariff concessions of 130 million yuan; Enjoy the export of 37.1 billion yuan, and it is expected to enjoy the tariff preference of 250 million yuan from member countries.

At the same time, China’s circle of friends to build the "Belt and Road" continues to expand. Since the beginning of this year, China has signed cooperation documents with Nicaragua, Syria, Argentina and Malawi to jointly build the "Belt and Road". "Up to now, China has signed more than 200 cooperation documents with 149 countries and 32 international organizations to jointly build the Belt and Road." Meng Wei, deputy director of the Political Research Office of the National Development and Reform Commission, said.

China’s trade with countries along the "Belt and Road" has become increasingly close. In the first quarter, the import and export value of China and the countries along the Belt and Road accounted for 31.1% of China’s total foreign trade import and export value, which was 1.4 percentage points higher than that of 2021 and 6.1 percentage points higher than that of 2013.

As an important guarantee for interconnection on the "Belt and Road", the overall operation of China-Europe trains is stable and efficient, showing strong development resilience. In the first quarter, China-Europe trains operated a total of 3,630 trains and transported 350,000 TEUs, up by 7% and 9% respectively year-on-year, and the comprehensive heavy container rate was 97.7%. The monthly train volume remained above 1,000 trains for 23 consecutive months, effectively ensuring the stability of the international industrial chain supply chain.

Controlling the epidemic situation is the key to the steady growth of foreign trade

Since the beginning of this year, new changes have taken place in the characteristics of epidemic spread, but as long as we adhere to scientific epidemic prevention, we can gradually block the spread of epidemic and reduce the adverse impact on economic and social development. "If the epidemic situation in Shanghai and other places was effectively controlled in May, China’s foreign trade will continue to grow in the second quarter." Liu Xiangdong said.

"The pressure of foreign trade in the second quarter is not necessarily smaller than that in the first quarter, but the momentum of foreign trade development is still sufficient." Bai Ming believes that the long-term fundamentals of China’s economy have not changed, and the trend of sustained economic recovery has not changed. China’s industrial system is complete, infrastructure is constantly improving, the advantages of super-large-scale market are obvious, and the effectiveness of innovation-driven development is constantly emerging, which has a good foundation for promoting sustained and healthy economic development. "China’s policy toolbox for supporting foreign trade development is well stocked, and measures to stabilize foreign trade are put in place." Bai Ming said that the RCEP dividend is gradually released, and the trading partners tend to be diversified, which are favorable factors to support the steady growth of foreign trade. He also stressed that small and medium-sized foreign trade enterprises are under great pressure at present, so it is very important to stabilize market players.

"Since last year, China has implemented more active policies and measures to stabilize foreign trade and foreign investment, and has achieved remarkable results. In particular, under the premise of normalization of epidemic prevention and control, it has continued to expand trade channels, optimized trade structure, fostered the development of new trade formats, and effectively promoted the high-quality development of foreign trade." Liu Xiangdong said that in the next step, facing the new situation and challenges at home and abroad, it is necessary to comprehensively improve the pertinence of foreign trade development, focus on unblocking the supply chain of industrial chain and ensure the stability of industrial production. In view of the high fluctuation of international commodity prices, we will accelerate the diversification of supply channels. Support foreign trade enterprises to make full use of digital technology to develop new formats such as cross-border e-commerce and overseas warehouses, and effectively do a more precise job in stabilizing trade channels and markets.

"Although the international environment is complicated and severe, on the whole, the world economy is still recovering, and the demand for China’s export products will still increase. China’s export enterprises are also more capable of adapting to changes in external demand. " Fu Linghui said. (Reporter Feng Qiyu)

A new mode of renovation of old residential areas in Guangzhou: renovation+operation, rejuvenation and "staying in the face" Recently, the first old residential area renovation design, construction and operation integration (EPCO) project in Guangzhou (15 old residential areas such as Huangshi Garden Community) completed the bidding work. This batch of projects will introduce social capital, invest and operate more than 300 sets of directly managed public houses in the residential area, and promote the introduction of properties in non-property residential areas. In the future, the neighborhood will not only gain a better residential environment and better living facilities, but also welcome young new neighbors and property management companies to realize the effective use of idle public houses and the long-term maintenance of renovation results. Before the renovation, the design effect diagram of the leisure and entertainment area is more in line with the operational requirements. The renovation project of this tender is EPCO integration mode for a long time, which is the first mode adopted in the renovation of old residential areas in Guangzhou. "In the past, the transformation was usually EPC, that is, the general contracting of design and construction. When the project is completed, it will be over. If the community without property is not well managed, the transformation results will be difficult to maintain. This project has added O-operation, and the transformation is only the beginning. It is also necessary to introduce the property and be responsible for the subsequent operation and maintenance. " The relevant staff of the Housing and Construction Bureau of Baiyun District said, "This means that the winning bidder will think about transformation from the whole life cycle, and the design scheme will be more in line with the needs of operation, and it will be’ once transformed and maintained for a long time’." The reporter learned that the consortium dominated by Vision Group won the bid for the project. This "cross-river dragon" enterprise is the first in the country to explore the market-oriented model of the transformation of old communities, because it is built.Beijing’s "Jinsong model" is widely known for its "leading by Party building, guiding by public opinion, sustained meager profit and integration of reform and management". Since the beginning of this year, the Municipal Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau has issued supporting policies such as "Trial Measures for Introducing Social Capital to Participate in the Renovation of Old Urban Residential Areas in Guangzhou" and "Implementation Measures for the Activation and Utilization of Existing Buildings in Old Urban Residential Areas in Guangzhou", clarifying that social capital can participate in the implementation of investment, design, construction, operation and maintenance of old residential area renovation projects in a whole chain or in stages. Social capital can participate in the operation of stock resources in old residential areas according to the actual situation of the project, and activate and utilize stock resources such as public houses, public inefficient idle land, motor vehicle parking spaces and public advertising spaces, and encourage the integration of relevant state-owned enterprise properties and private properties, and jointly transform and upgrade and manage them in pieces. By introducing social capital to fill the shortcomings of people’s livelihood in the community, we encourage and guide the existing buildings to be activated and utilized according to the positive list, give priority to increasing public services and municipal public facilities, appropriately increase convenience commercial facilities, enrich community supply, and improve the living quality of the community and the vitality of the block. The design renderings of the carport before the renovation introduced social capital to lease idle public houses and transform them into youth apartments. The tender announcement mentioned that the batch of projects involved 15 old communities including Huangshi Garden, Provincial Medical Dormitory, Dongfang Community, Yijingju and Metallurgical Community.The renovation contents include, but are not limited to, the protection and custody of tree resources within the renovation scope, the rain and sewage diversion renovation of some residential areas, the third-line renovation of public areas in residential buildings and the third-line renovation of public areas in residential areas, the renovation of the facade of the building body, and the addition (renovation) of non-motor vehicle charging piles. It is worth noting that the tender announcement calls for the integration and utilization of vacant public houses within the tender scope, investment and transformation of this part, so as to make assets meet the requirements of commercial operation, build youth apartments, and realize the development and utilization of idle resources and the socialized and sustainable operation of public houses. In addition, property management will be implemented for the residential areas that meet the takeover requirements within the scope of this tender, and a long-term management and maintenance mechanism for residential properties will be established. It is the first time in Guangzhou to introduce social capital to lease idle public houses and invest in transforming them into youth apartments in the transformation of old residential areas. "This part is invested by the society. After the renovation, the value of public houses will be improved. The rental income of enterprises will be put into operation, the resources of idle public houses in the community will be effectively utilized, the dilapidated environment will be improved, and fitness, reading rooms and coffee shops will be added. The vitality of the community will be much better." The relevant staff of the Baiyun District Housing and Construction Bureau said. The transformation and operation of public houses is a "hard bone" without much fat. If an enterprise operates with its own funds, it will generally take more than 10 years to recover its capital. According to the "Trial Measures for Introducing Social Capital to Participate in the Renovation of Old Urban Residential Areas in Guangzhou", the longest service period of social capital is 20 years, and a low-profit and sustainable operation mode is advocated. The integration of design, construction and operation bidding also adopts the idea of matching fat and thin, combining soft and hard, and solves the "hard bone"No one chews on the problem. The Municipal Bureau of Housing and Urban-Rural Development said that the implementation of the project will be solidly promoted, and the feasible path of market-oriented operation and long-term maintenance of old residential areas will be continuously explored and improved to help the city update and develop with high quality.

In terms of ensuring safety, Xiong Shaoyuan said that China Meteorological Bureau adhered to the principle of putting people first and life first, actively integrated into the national emergency framework, and effectively built the first line of defense for meteorological disaster prevention and mitigation.

According to reports, in terms of emergency linkage mechanism with meteorological disaster warning as the guide, the progressive meteorological service mechanism has achieved national coverage, and a high-level early warning "calling" system has been established and improved. Since 2023, the cumulative number of party and government leaders at all levels and flood control has reached 580,000.

In terms of meteorological disaster risk early warning capability, the first national comprehensive risk survey of natural disasters was completed in 10 categories, and 45 meteorological disaster risk products were released daily. The accuracy of rainstorm warning signal has been improved to 93%, the early warning time of severe convective weather has reached 43 minutes, and the meteorological warning information can be delivered to the public in 3 to 8 minutes, with a coverage rate of 98.8%. In the past five years, the number of deaths caused by meteorological disasters has decreased by an average of 48.5% compared with that between 2014 and 2018, and the proportion of economic losses to GDP has decreased by an average of 0.15%.

　　Huawei-related topics are always one of the hot spots in the industry.

　　Recently, a chat record involving the dystocia of the first model of the Zhijie brand, which Chery cooperated with Huawei, quickly circulated on the Internet and continued to ferment. In the chat record, a netizen suspected of being a Chery employee directly pointed the finger at Huawei for the dystocia of Zhijie S7, and revealed that "the leader who has been working hard to promote cooperation with Huawei directly resigned."

　　Subsequently, the leader was confirmed as Han Biwen, deputy general manager of Chery Automobile Co., Ltd. and general manager of the manufacturing division. However, on January 31, the reason for Wang Chuan’s departure was denied by Chery’s spokesperson Jin Yibo: the cooperation between the two parties was smooth, and they were making every effort to promote the production and delivery of Zhijie S7, and they had invested more resources and would continue to deepen cooperation.

　　But this response does not seem to be recognized by the public.

　　The intellectual S7 is "far ahead" and "far away"

　　After questioning, M7 went against the trend and returned to the mainstream market after its listing, which made its new cooperation project Zhijie Automobile become the focus of public attention. However, in 2024, the delivery of the new M7 four-wheel drive version, the delayed delivery of Aouita 12 and the dystocia of Zhijie S7 made Huawei’s new models collectively face the delivery problem.

　　For the first two, whether it is CMO Li Pengcheng, vice president and chief marketing officer of Aouita Science and Technology, or all the suppliers visited by Gaspar, it is attributed to the fact that the sales of products far exceeded expectations, resulting in insufficient supply. "At present, the production capacity is climbing, and the supply shortage will be alleviated as soon as possible in the past two weeks." A practitioner who supplies the new M7 precursor parts in the world revealed to Gaspar.

　　However, compared with the sweet burden of the new M7 and Aouita 12, the intellectual S7 is still shrouded in gloom.

　　On January 15th, Zhijie Automobile issued a document on its official account, saying that the factory is making every effort to produce and ensure high-quality delivery. This subsidy is mainly for users who have made a decision between November 28th, 2023 and January 15th, 2024. They can enjoy the subsidy after waiting for more than 6 weeks, and they can get a maximum subsidy of 10,000 yuan in 200 yuan every day.

　　Previously, there had been a lot of rumors on related forums and social platforms that Zhijie S7 was delayed in delivery and not delivered in order. Just one week after the release of the above compensation plan, Gaspar learned from the relevant sales staff that the official promised delivery time has been extended from 6 weeks to 10-12 weeks.

　　On November 28th, 2023, Huawei released the first pure electric car-Zhijie S7 under the smart car selection business model, which is the first product of Zhijie brand and the first model of cooperation between Huawei and Chery under the smart car selection business model.

　　According to the latest news, as of the end of December, the large quantity of Zhijie S7 has exceeded 10,000, and the number of offline stores has exceeded 100 in a single day. However, according to the terminal data of Geshi Automobile Research Institute, in December 2023, the cumulative sales volume of Zhijie S7 nationwide was only 305, and according to the staff of Zhijie Automobile’s delivery center in Shanghai, there was only one centralized delivery in December last year, and there were no new cars afterwards.

　　Obviously, it seems difficult to copy and paste it on Zhijie S7 due to excessive sales and insufficient production capacity. You know, compared with the manufacturing strength of Cyrus, the new "Intelligent Networked Super Factory No.2" built by Chery has a planned annual production capacity of 500,000 vehicles, which makes it hard to believe that Zhijie S7 will be difficult to produce.

　　In this regard, the senior analyst of Gaspar Automotive Research Institute believes that instead of the high centralization of Huawei in software, it is more inclined to the imbalance of production rhythm between the two parties after the release of new cars, the yield of supply chain parts in mass production of new technologies and the insufficient preparation of the production line of the automobile factory are all reasons for the delay in mass production of Zhijie S7.

　　The rumor that "Huawei has no basic respect for Chery" may not be groundless. Some insiders pointed out to Geshi Automobile that in the car-making business, Huawei really wants to dominate the whole process of new cars, but in cooperation with enterprises with scale advantages such as Chery and Changan, they also don’t want to be only supporting roles, and conflicts in product dominance and management styles and cultures of different companies are inevitable.

　　The success of asking the world may be difficult to replicate.

　　As we all know, with more than 30 years of profound accumulation in the ICT field, Huawei has cut into the car track in three modes: standardized parts suppliers, HI mode and HarmonyOS Zhixing, and the cooperation has gone from shallow to deep.

　　Among them, HI mode is provided by Huawei with full-stack smart car solutions such as intelligent cockpit, intelligent driving and intelligent Che Yun, such as the cooperation of BAIC Extreme Fox and Aouita brand; In addition to providing parts and solutions, HarmonyOS Zhixing will also fully participate in product design, brand building, sales channels and other aspects, such as the cooperation with Cyrus, and so on.

　　According to Yu Chengdong’s plan, Huawei’s automobile business unit (Car BU) plans to make a profit in 2025, so as to change the situation that "Car BU is Huawei’s only loss-making business". To achieve this goal, it is necessary to ensure that the cumulative sales volume of HarmonyOS Zhixing and HI mode reaches 1 million vehicles.

　　It is worth noting that according to the terminal data of Geshi Automobile Research Institute, in 2023, the cumulative sales volume including Aouita 11/12, Wenjie M5/M7/M9 and Zhijie S7 was only 114,000.

　　This means that Huawei BU must accelerate the pace of implementation this year. On January 16th, the day after HarmonyOS Zhixing implemented the compensation scheme of Zhijie S7, a wholly-owned new company, Huawei Car BU, was formally established. On the same day, the joint venture between Huawei and Changan also made new progress. Changan Automobile revealed that the new joint venture between Changan and Huawei was tentatively named "Newcool".

　　As for Yu Chengdong, Huawei will also cooperate with BAIC and JAC respectively in HarmonyOS Zhixing business after consulting with the intellectual community. The brand of cooperation between Huawei and BAIC HarmonyOS Zhixing mode is determined as "enjoying the world", and the first model is positioned as a medium and large car, which will be officially released before the Beijing Auto Show in April; The brand of HarmonyOS Zhixing, which cooperates with Jianghuai, is designated as "Aojie", and the first car will be released in Q4, 2024, which is a million-level product.

　　According to the latest news, as of January 28th, the cumulative sales volume of vehicles in the car industry in January has exceeded 28,000, setting a new record for the highest monthly sales volume. According to the data on January 9th, the cumulative delivery volume of the new M7 has reached 48,552 vehicles, and the cumulative sales volume has exceeded 120,000 vehicles. It is worth mentioning that, in addition to the new M7, the two models of the AITO series, the M5 and M9, have also received much attention. With the launch of mass delivery of the M9 and the launch of the new SUV model M8, it is expected to further promote the sales of the M 9 brand to a new high.

　　Therefore, to a certain extent, S7, the first model of Zhijie brand, has become the key to whether Huawei’s HarmonyOS Zhixing model can win the cooperation between car companies.

　　However, in the view of senior analysts of Gaspar Automotive Research Institute, the core sales source of HarmonyOS Zhixing model in the future will still be the contribution of the products that have cooperated with Cyrus, and it is also Huawei’s most "obedient" and recognized partner in this model, and the products of other enterprises may not have much sales performance. "The delay in the delivery of the intelligent S7 will inevitably affect the user’s car purchase choice, which in turn will affect the confidence of cooperation between the two parties."

　　Zhu Huarong, the chairman of Changan Automobile, who established a new joint venture with Huawei, is even more outspoken in his resistance to HarmonyOS Zhixing. He stressed that Changan must have its own brand and choose Hi mode because it conforms to the national industrial policy. The implication is that under the HarmonyOS Zhixing model, the division of labor between Huawei and car companies is unclear, which may lead to problems in the protection of rights and interests in the process of users using cars.

　　There is a clearer positioning, which is the insistence of Changan Automobile, and I believe it is not just the insistence of Changan Automobile.

　　In tHis context, the above analysts believe that hi mode will still have enterprises to adopt cooperation, especially domestic car companies, mainly to complement their intelligent shortcomings and learn from the organization and management of Huawei IPD. In addition, Huawei Car BU Yinwang Technology Co., Ltd. has a very large room for growth in the future by binding car companies to create an "ASML model" in the smart car ecosystem.

　　As mentioned earlier, Huawei’s circle of friends continues to expand rapidly. If all goes well, it is not out of reach to achieve the goal of one million vehicles in 2025. However, the success of the world of inquiry has not made all brands resolutely hand over the dominant position like Cyrus, and the constant disputes in the intellectual world have made Huawei’s future in the last three "circles" full of uncertainty. How to balance the needs and cooperation of different car companies may become a more critical focus of Huawei HarmonyOS Zhixing in the future than expansion. （Garcia）
