Just after the holiday, the whole world reported that the box office of the Spring Festival movie in 2024 reached 8.016 billion yuan, setting a new box office record for the Spring Festival movie. Among them, YOLO is the box office champion temporarily, and Pegasus 2, Boonie Bears: Time Twist and Article 20 rank second to fourth respectively in the box office list of the Spring Festival.

Although the Spring Festival holiday has ended, the spicy strip war has officially begun. (YOLO and Article 20).

The film "Article 20" fell for four days in a row, and the attendance rate exceeded other films for three consecutive days, winning the one-day championship. In this regard, although the box office is leading at present, it is obvious that Jia Ling is in a hurry, and he has started to keep pushing, trying his best, one by one, all of which are big moves. According to these big moves, we can also see that Jia Ling’s ferocity towards himself in the past year has made people admire him more and more.

Compare before and after and be sure that you can succeed.

YOLO was shown in the film for a few days, and there were fresh materials. The crew released the latest MV of "It’s all in time", a hot transmutation song sung by Jia Ling. In the video, Jia Ling is wearing a yellow evening dress and has long hair. The special effects also design two Jia Ling duets from the past and now. The contrast is very shocking. One is Jia Ling, who is hunched over and fat to the end, and the other is Jia Ling, who is surprisingly thin and tall and straight, and doesn’t look like a person at all. Such a radical change makes people feel incredible. As we all know, the best thing is that when Jia Ling first sang this song, she knew that she could make it. She not only dared to conceive the difference before and after, but also achieved the goal that ordinary people could not achieve.

There is another promotional video, that is, Li Xueqin P picture. The cooperation between the two of them should be that during the filming, the first half of the video was made, and Li Xueqin was sitting there, or the chubby Jia Ling disliked her slow speed. As soon as the next shot is switched, this picture of P is already another version of Jia Ling. To tell a joke, Jia Ling, who has lost weight, dare not look like this.

In a word, both videos were shot by Jia Ling before, and finally produced the bursting effect through post-editing. In other words, as early as a year ago, Jia Ling knew what it was like a year later and designed a long layout, which made people think more and more terrible.

Doing a good job in product marketing is not afraid of being accused.

At this stage, people don’t resent Jia Ling’s use of so many marketing methods, because the content of YOLO itself is relatively solid.

Because, in fact, Jia Ling’s thin appearance is not shown too much in the film, but more about a process, and even the role played by Jia Ling has not achieved success in the secular sense in the film. What is more subtle is that this film, from the perspective of female directors, shows the diversity of female actors and women in modern life, finds the right topic and makes clear the theme of the film around the core of women. That is to say, during the filming period, Jia Ling made the products solid with his heart, and then he dared to make bold marketing in the later period, fearing that he would be overused by marketing.

Just imagine, if Jia Ling just blindly takes the matter of losing weight as a stunt, there must be many other negative voices. Once the film is very bad, for Jia Ling, the box office of the film is uncertain, which will ruin her future reputation, but it will not be worth the candle.

Drive the industry to radiate hot discussion in the whole society.

Because it happens that during the Chinese New Year, all of Chinese eats and drinks at home. However, most people, while tasting delicious food in their mouths, are under great pressure and always want to go back to the gym to lose weight after the Spring Festival. And this time, Jia Ling’s whole body tendon meat undoubtedly gave everyone a very good kidney hormone. Since Jia Ling can do it, why can’t we! Everyone hopes to be like Jia Ling and change his body after the year. Then, if there is demand, there will be capital to follow the wind. Look at the circle of friends, whether they are engaged in beauty industry or fitness yoga, they all take Jia Ling as a gimmick. Ordinary people casually brush their circle of friends with Jia Ling. No matter what the film is about, Jia Ling has the help of the whole world to promote it.

　　The long-term positive trend of China’s economy has not changed and cannot be changed. It is constantly shifting from high-speed growth to high-quality development, and the old and new kinetic energy are continuously converted. The short-term economic operation may fluctuate and be unstable in stages, but in the whole development process, it will have ten trend changes, which determines the potential and future prospects of China’s long-term economic development.

　　First, the final consumption expenditure growth has become the first driving force for economic growth.

　　From 2014 to 2018, according to the demand expenditure method, among the three major demand growth: fixed capital formation, final consumption expenditure and net export of goods and services, the final consumption expenditure growth has become the first driving force for China’s economic growth for five consecutive years.

　　Moreover, the popular and wave-free consumption of some consumer goods is turning to the pursuit of high-quality, differentiated and diversified selective consumption. In 2018, the total retail sales of consumer goods in China was 38.1 trillion yuan, up 9.0% over the previous year. Although the growth rate slowed down by 1.2 percentage points over the previous year, the contribution rate of the overall final consumption growth (including service consumption) to economic growth was 76.2%, up 18.6 percentage points over the previous year.

　　Second, the consumption structure is advanced: the proportion of service consumption in household consumption is rising.

　　In recent years, the Engel coefficient of urban and rural residents in China has dropped significantly. In 2017, food consumption expenditure only accounted for about 28% of the total expenditure of urban residents, and only accounted for about 32% of the total expenditure of rural residents. The growth of consumption expenditure has increasingly turned to other consumption fields.

　　Compared with commodity consumption, service consumption has maintained a faster growth. Tourism, culture, sports, old-age care and domestic service consumption are very active. According to the Ministry of Commerce, service consumption accounted for 49.2% of household consumption in 2017, an increase of 5.2 percentage points over 2012. In 2018, the proportion of service consumption reached 49.5%, an increase of 0.3 percentage points over the previous year, which also explained the decline in the growth rate of total retail sales of consumer goods in China in 2018. Internationally, in 2018, the proportion of service consumption in the United States reached 68.9%, and other developed countries were 59.4% in Japan, 58% in Britain, 54% in France and 52% in Germany. China accounts for 49.5%, which is close to German and other continental European countries.

　　Third, production and consumption upgrading: production inputs are scientific and digital.

　　In 2018, the expenditure on national research and experimental development (R&D) increased by 11.6% over the previous year, and the ratio to GDP was 2.18%, an increase of 0.03 percentage points over the previous year. At the same time, data becomes a new factor of production and is consumed. In the era of digital economy, the role of data in economic activities is becoming more and more important. It can not only help people to better organize and plan production and operation, but also make effective judgments and predictions. Moreover, it becomes a direct input factor in artificial intelligent manufacturing. In many fields of production and management, it has been regarded as a new factor of production. As early as October 9, 2016, the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee had a collective study on the implementation of the strategy of strengthening the country through the Internet. On December 8, 2017, the Political Bureau of the Central Committee once again conducted collective study on "Implementing the National Big Data Strategy", and proposed "Building a digital economy with data as the key element", which made it clear that data is a production factor. The amount of data generated and stored in the world has increased dramatically, and it is estimated that it will reach 44 trillion GB by 2020. The amount of data generated in China will account for nearly 20% of the total global data. As of 2017, the United States has 44% of the world’s large data centers, and the number of large data centers in China is second only to the United States. In the next few years, with the completion of a number of innovation platforms in the field of big data, 13 national big data laboratories will have their own achievements in different fields, providing support and services for related technological innovations in the field of big data.

　　Fourth, the digital economy has become a new industry and opened up new fields in the network market.

　　At present, applications based on new technologies such as Internet, Internet of Things, big data and cloud computing are increasingly entering social production and exchange, resulting in digital media, e-commerce and e-financial services, and many new products, industries and formats. The Internet is changing the production and lifestyle of human beings. According to the World Internet Report 2017, 22% of global GDP is closely related to the digital economy. In 2016, the total scale of China’s digital economy reached 22.58 trillion yuan, ranking second in the world, accounting for 30.3% of China’s GDP. According to the World Internet Report 2018, by 2018, the global Internet users had reached 3.6 billion, more than half of the global population. The number of users in cmnet was 753 million, an increase of 8% over the previous year in 2017, and the use of mobile data increased by 162% year-on-year. In the China market, online entertainment (long and short videos and mobile games), new retail and mobile payment have all made further development, and China is becoming a global Internet giant center.

　　The opening of new fields of digital economy and network market has posed new challenges to modern economics and statistics. The concept of total retail sales of social consumer goods provided in short-term economic operation statistics can no longer reflect the whole picture of household consumption. Data input factors have not yet entered the PPI price index statistics; The concept of fixed capital formation or fixed assets investment can no longer accommodate the investment in production and production tools in the network field; The direct exchange value and consumption value of online market also failed to enter the current statistical system; The concept of "gross domestic product" in modern economics can no longer accommodate and cover the economic activities of the whole society and the creation of total social output in the new era. Paying too much attention to the increase or decrease of 0.1 or 0.2 percentage point of GDP will make us fall into the misunderstanding of observing the economic situation.

　　In October, 2016, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that it is necessary to increase investment, strengthen the construction of information infrastructure, promote the deep integration of the Internet and the real economy, speed up the digitalization and intelligentization of traditional industries, make the digital economy bigger and stronger, and expand new space for economic development. In March 2017, the "Government Work Report" first proposed to accelerate the development of the digital economy. In October of the same year, the digital economy was written into the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. Developing digital economy has become a national strategy. At the China International Import Expo on November 5, 2018 and the APEC meeting on November 18, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader emphasized that all countries should seize the opportunities brought by the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation and strengthen cooperation in frontier fields such as digital economy, artificial intelligence and nanotechnology to jointly create new technologies, new industries, new formats and new models. Digital economy is the future development direction of Asia-Pacific and even the world.

　　Five, high-end manufacturing and intelligent manufacturing change the industrial economic structure.

　　In 2018, the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Three-year Action Plan for Enhancing the Core Competitiveness of Manufacturing Industry (2018-2020)", and organized and implemented special actions for the industrialization of key technologies in key areas such as rail transit equipment, high-end ship and ocean engineering equipment, intelligent robots, smart cars, modern agricultural machinery, high-end medical devices and medicines, new materials, manufacturing intelligence, and major technical equipment.

　　In recent years, the new kinetic energy of manufacturing industry has been gradually enhanced. The high-end equipment manufacturing industry represented by high-speed rail and large aircraft, and the high-tech industry represented by information technology have maintained a rapid growth trend. Wind data shows that in 2018, the added value of high-tech industries, equipment manufacturing industries and strategic emerging industries increased by 11.8%, 8.3% and 8.8% respectively, and the growth rate was faster than that of industrial output above designated size. The new kinetic energy promotes the optimization of the kinetic energy structure of the traditional economy. In 2018, the proportion of high-tech manufacturing industry in industries above designated size reached 14.4%, an increase of 1.4 percentage points year-on-year; Investment in high-tech manufacturing industry increased by 16.1% year-on-year, and the growth rate was 6.6 percentage points higher than that of all manufacturing investment.

　　At the same time, intelligent manufacturing has become a new trend of high-quality development of industrial economy. In July 2017, the State Council officially issued the "New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan"; In November 2018, the "Work Plan for Revealing the Key Tasks of New Generation Artificial Intelligence Industry Innovation" issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology proposed that by 2020, China will reach or approach the international advanced level in key technologies, computing power, communication capabilities, and standards related to vehicle intelligent platforms. In 2019, the "Government Work Report" proposed "smart+"; On March 19, 2019, the seventh meeting of the Central Committee for Comprehensively Deepening Reform reviewed and approved the Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Deep Integration of Artificial Intelligence and the Real Economy, and proposed to build an intelligent economic form that is data-driven, man-machine collaboration, cross-border integration and sharing. This means that the pace of promoting artificial intelligence to empower and upgrade traditional industries in China has been greatly accelerated. It can be predicted that artificial "intelligence+"will become an important direction of manufacturing development in the future, and will also become a new kinetic energy engine to accelerate the development of emerging industries.

　　The application exploration of artificial intelligence in manufacturing industry is forming four typical application modes. One is to improve manufacturing efficiency, the other is to optimize production technology, the third is to optimize supply chain management efficiency, and the fourth is to improve after-sales operation and maintenance value. With the deepening of technology application, the coupling of capital investment is also increasingly strengthened. Driven by technological breakthroughs and application requirements, artificial intelligence technology has stepped out of the laboratory, accelerated its penetration into various fields of the industry, and greatly improved its industrialization level. In this process, capital has played an important role as an accelerator of industrial development. In the first half of 2018 alone, the global financing scale in the field of artificial intelligence reached 43.5 billion US dollars, of which the investment scale in China reached 31.7 billion US dollars, accounting for more than 70% of the world. At the same time, artificial intelligence has been widely used in intelligent robots, drones, finance, medical care, security, autonomous driving, search, education and other fields. Among them, autonomous driving is one of the most promising landing areas in the field of artificial intelligence. Traditional domestic automobile companies such as FAW, SAIC, BAIC, Chang ‘an and Dongfeng have invested heavily in intelligent and autonomous driving.

　　Six, the supply of some public goods has become a new service industry.

　　The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that the main contradiction in our society has been transformed into the contradiction between the people’s growing need for a better life and the unbalanced development. People’s basic needs for food, clothing, housing and transportation have changed to more needs for fairness, environment and various public products and services.

　　In cities, insufficient development is the main problem. Mainly for the lack of public products and public services, not excellent. The so-called public goods generally fall into two categories. The first category is transportation, urban infrastructure, water, electricity and heat; The second category is science, education, culture, health and sports insurance (insurance). These products are in short supply or poor quality, so they cannot meet everyone’s needs for a better life. In the case that the supply of these products and services depends entirely on government input, it can only lead to insufficiency or inferiority. Therefore, market mechanism and competition mechanism should also be introduced into the supply of some public goods. The supply of public goods and public services should give consumers choices, and the pricing of public goods should be flexible, so as to attract more social capital into the production and supply of public goods and form new industries. In the primary stage of socialism, public goods have different degrees of welfare and different degrees of commodity, so they should be properly classified, treated differently, specifically implemented and priced differently to attract social capital investment and alleviate the shortage of government investment.

　　For example, in the fields of education and medical care, the welfare should be guaranteed by the government, and the commodity price should be guided by the government to regulate the market. The health industry is an emerging industry that integrates medical treatment, rehabilitation, old-age care, leisure and tourism. In western developed countries, the health industry is the second largest industry after the financial industry. In 2017, the health industry in the United States accounted for 17% of GDP. China is stepping into an aging society, the proportion of middle-income groups in social strata is rising, and the demand for health is growing. It is necessary to combine the supply of public services such as medical care and rehabilitation with the supply of competitive services such as leisure and tourism, allocate resources through market mechanisms, and create supply. Of course, the special industry formed by the supply of some public goods should not take profit as the sole purpose, and it has the characteristics of inclusiveness, but it also needs to solve the problems of investment return and commercial interests of enterprise development.

　　Seven, economic agglomeration in the Bay Area and urban agglomeration to form the scale effect of resource allocation.

　　China’s economy will gather in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Bay Area, Shanghai and Yangtze River Delta Bay Area, Beijing and Tianjin and Bohai Bay Area, and become the growth pole of China’s economy. By 2016, the population, land area and port container throughput of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Bay Area ranked first among the four Greater Bay Area cities in the world, with a total GDP of 1.38 trillion US dollars, second only to new york Bay Area. In North China, the sub-centers of xiong’an new area and Beijing will also be the signs of regional economic agglomeration. Master Plan of xiong’an new area, Hebei (2018— 2035) closely follows xiong’an new area’s strategic positioning, and proposes to orderly undertake the function relief of Beijing’s non-capital, optimize the pattern of land space development and protection, create a beautiful ecological environment, promote the integrated development of urban and rural areas, shape the features of the new district, create a livable and business-friendly environment, build a modern comprehensive transportation system, build a green and low-carbon city, build a world-class innovative city, and create a city of digital intelligence. The construction of xiong’an new area has attracted international attention. The Nihon Keizai Shimbun commented that the construction of a new city "xiong’an new area" is a grand plan put forward by China in 2017 as a "Millennium Plan". It will build a smart city using a new generation of cutting-edge technologies, and the infrastructure construction will be completed by 2022. It is estimated that the population of the new district will exceed 2 million in the future. The estimated total investment is 2 trillion yuan.

　　With the construction of a number of central cities, urban agglomerations around central cities will rise, thus further accelerating the agglomeration effect of China’s economy and the scale effect of resource allocation.

　　Eight, the new urban-rural and regional relations shape a new division of labor and expand new exchanges.

　　The opposition between industrial production and agricultural production, and the opposition between physical and chemical economy and bio-economy were once the basic contents of traditional urban-rural exchange and urban-rural relations. Now and in the future, there will be subversive changes, and the development trend will be: big cities and economic core areas will focus on intelligent services (scientific research and development design, etc.), data and information, digital economy and public goods production; Small and medium-sized cities are dominated by industrial physical and chemical economy and labor service economy; Rural areas are dominated by bio-economy and eco-economy, forming a new exchange relationship among them. This not only provides a wider employment space for various labor factors, but also forms a more detailed and exquisite professional division of labor. The content of urban-rural and regional exchange relations is more diverse and there is more room for development.

　　At the same time, the development of urban rail transit provides greater convenience for the division of labor and cooperation between cities, and the phenomenon of "commuting" between cities is becoming more and more frequent, which means that the tradeability of service labor is further enhanced and the service trade is further expanded, and at the same time, it creates new foundations and conditions for the transformation and upgrading of service industry.

　　Nine, new opportunities for rural revitalization.

　　The strategy of rural revitalization put forward by the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China is to give priority to the development of agriculture and rural areas, establish and improve the system, mechanism and policy system of urban-rural integration development in accordance with the general requirements of industrial prosperity, ecological livability, rural civilization, effective governance and affluent life, and accelerate the modernization of agriculture and rural areas. This will become the general grasp of the work of agriculture, countryside and farmers in the new era. According to this strategy, agriculture must first become a human capital-intensive industry. It is necessary to professionalize agricultural management and cultivate a modern new peasant team. Encourage new farmers to actively participate in the construction of cooperation, credit and mutual aid organizations, so as to become modern and efficient commodity agricultural laborers and agricultural producers and operators. Secondly, we should support the popularization of agricultural scientific research and build a stable scientific and technological support system; Scientific research support and personnel training are the foundation of modern agriculture and an important way to solve the bottleneck constraint of resource elements, which need to be accumulated for a long time. Third, rural renovation is an important measure to promote rural revitalization. With the development of urbanization, the structure, layout and function of rural land use will change dramatically. It is difficult to adapt to this rapid change by relying solely on the land market, and the government needs to intervene in the form of law, planning and construction projects. China’s rural renovation should be given more complete functions as an important platform for implementing the rural revitalization strategy, and the combination of land renovation with agricultural scale management, rural tourism, infrastructure construction, landscape and environmental protection should be promoted. Fourth, to be a "new node" for small and medium-sized towns. To create "Living in the countryside and working in cities and towns "has promoted the development of rural areas." In the future, we should create conditions for the development of county towns and small towns in infrastructure investment, medical and educational resources layout and land index distribution. Work on the node of small cities and towns. Fifth, build beautiful countryside and develop ecological economy. Rural revitalization is not the revitalization of every village. In some natural villages, there has been a phenomenon of natural disappearance of young and strong labor force and large-scale land abandonment. We should promote their disappearance naturally, reduce the ratio of administrative villages to natural villages, and make land resources and construction funds more rationally allocated. On this basis, we will implement "village renewal" to improve the quality of rural life and build beautiful countryside. Implement rural construction marked by "toilet revolution" to improve the quality of livable life in rural areas. Through the implementation of village renewal projects, these villages will form a distinctive style and a pleasant ecological living environment, and promote the development of ecological economy.

　　X. China is more closely linked with the open world economy.

　　In the face of trade protectionism and the US trade war, China’s policy of opening to the outside world has not changed, and the steps of opening to the outside world have become more solid. China’s basic strategy to meet the challenge is to develop itself and overcome trade protectionism in building an open world economy. China has set up 12 free trade pilot zones, implemented more open trade and investment facilitation measures, and further expanded the opening of service trade. At the same time, it has explored new paths for deepening reform in the whole country, copied and popularized new experiences, and gathered new common interests with other countries in the world, which will become a new hub for China to connect with the open world economy.

　　In 2018, China ranked first in world trade in goods and second in service. Since 2013, the foreign investment of China enterprises has exceeded 100 billion US dollars, and it has stabilized at about 120 billion US dollars in 2018, and the stock of overseas investment has reached about 1,929.5 billion US dollars. China has become the third largest economy in the world with foreign investment, and it is the second largest economy if China and Hongkong are included. China’s economic ties with the world are hard to isolate. It is wishful thinking for American protectionist forces to try to decouple China’s economy from the world economy.

　　Since 2013, China has made continuous progress in jointly building the Belt and Road Initiative with relevant countries. In 2017, it implemented new investment in 57 countries along the route, with an investment of US$ 20.17 billion, up 31.5% year-on-year, accounting for 12.7% of foreign investment, up nearly 5 percentage points from the previous year. In 2018, new non-financial investment in countries along the route reached US$ 15.64 billion, up 8.9% year-on-year, and the proportion of foreign investment further rose to 12.8%. By the end of 2018, China-Europe trains had accumulated more than 13,000 trains, and the return rate increased by nearly 20 percentage points, reaching 49 cities in 15 countries abroad; 387 civil aviation routes reach 33 countries along the route. Financial cooperation continued to strengthen, with 11 Chinese banks setting up 71 first-level institutions in 27 countries along the route. Carry out joint financing cooperation with multilateral development banks such as African Development Bank, Inter-American Development Bank and European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. RMB clearing arrangements have been established in seven countries and regions along the route, and the RMB cross-border payment system covers 41 countries and regions along the route. People’s hearts are also deepening. Cultural cooperation agreements have been signed with more than 60 countries along the route, more than 300 cultural exchange implementation plans have been determined, 17 overseas China cultural centers have been built in countries along the route, and 85 overseas educational institutions and projects have been held in countries along the route. In deepening cooperation, we have continuously reached a new consensus on international economic and trade rules and reached 17 free trade agreements with 25 countries and regions.Although no bilateral investment agreement has been reached with the European Union, relevant bilateral investment agreements have been signed separately with many European countries.

　　In the future, China will further build and improve the "One Belt, One Road" information platform for foreign investment, and reduce the asymmetry of foreign investment information of enterprises. Reasonably guide the investment direction of enterprises in the Belt and Road Initiative, promote the transfer of superior production capacity to countries along the Belt and Road Initiative, improve the investment layout of enterprises in key industries and regions of the Belt and Road Initiative, improve the quality of investment in the Belt and Road Initiative, and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results with the host country.

　　(The author of this article is Pei Changhong, a member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and a professor at China Academy of Social Sciences. Source: Economic Daily)

The reporter learned from Shanghai Customs that at 22: 30 on March 17th, 21,200 boxes of imported Covid-19 therapeutic drug "Naimatvir/Ritonavir Tablets" (Paxlovid) were cleared by Shanghai Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone, and all the import clearance procedures were completed, and they were rushed to the national anti-epidemic front line. This is the first import of this drug in China after it was included in the latest version of COVID-19’s diagnosis and treatment plan.

On February 11th, 2022, according to the relevant provisions of the Drug Administration Law and the special drug approval procedures, National Medical Products Administration conducted emergency review and approval, and conditionally approved the import registration of the combined packaging (Paxlovid) of nematevir tablets and ritonavir tablets in Covid-19, Pfizer. On March 15th, the main points of the revision of novel coronavirus Diagnosis and Treatment Plan (Trial Ninth Edition) issued by the National Health and Wellness Commission showed that the specific anti-Covid-19 drugs of Naimatevir Tablets/Ritonavir Tablets (Paxlovid) approved by National Medical Products Administration were written into the diagnosis and treatment plan.

Hu Xiaoming, deputy director of the General Department of Shanghai Customs, said that the goods were imported from Pudong Airport. They connect with enterprises in advance to understand the import situation of goods, formulate and start the whole customs clearance guarantee plan, and guide enterprises to adopt the "declare in advance" model. After the goods arrived at Pudong Airport, they were immediately removed and transferred to Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone, which provided valuable time "ahead of schedule" for enterprises to declare imports and distribute shipments.

After the customs in the bonded area "receives the stick", a green channel is set up at the business site to ensure the safe and convenient customs clearance of goods. In view of the strict requirements for the storage environment of this batch of drugs, after receiving the application for making an appointment for inspection from the enterprise, the customs of the bonded area appointed customs officers to go to the enterprise to carry out warehousing inspection under the premise of doing a good job of safety protection, and complete the on-site inspection according to the inspection instructions to realize the "zero waiting" for customs clearance.

We give full play to the function of the logistics distribution center in the special customs supervision area, and help enterprises to reasonably arrange the batch exit and the corresponding transportation plan according to the actual situation and demand, and provide all-weather customs clearance guarantee, so as not to delay drugs for one second."

CCTV News:Some people say that the charm of competitive sports lies in the uncertainty of results. But for the audience who like weightlifting, diving and table tennis in China, there are not many opportunities to experience the fun of this uncertainty. Although it is a bit "Versailles" to say this, these three traditional advantages of China won 18 gold medals in this Tokyo Olympic Games, and many projects won the championship and runner-up, continuing to write brilliantly.

The first enumerated heavy gold medal in the history of China Olympic Games came from the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games, which was won by Ceng Guoqiang in the men’s 52kg event. China weightlifting team is a veritable "gold medal winner". In this Tokyo Olympic Games, China’s weightlifting team still performed brilliantly, and its achievements of 7 gold medals and 1 silver were amazing. In men’s weightlifting, there were four men and four gold medals, among which the total scores of Li Fabin, Chen Lijun and Lv Xiaojun all broke the Olympic record, while the total score of Shi Zhiyong broke the world record. Four women weightlifters won three gold medals and one silver, among which Hou Zhihui and Li Wenwen both broke the Olympic record. China’s "Heavenly Weightlifting Team" created China’s strength legend with its perfect report card.

When it comes to China diving team, Chinese people often regard it as the "dream team". Since Zhou Jihong won the first Olympic medal for the China team in 1984, this gold medalist has won 47 Olympic gold medals, and created several diving legends such as Gao Min, Fu Mingxia and Guo Jingjing. At this Tokyo Olympic Games, China’s diving legend continued, winning 7 gold medals and 5 silver medals, winning the first and second place in 4 events. In addition to the gratifying results, the newcomers emerging in this diving team are also eye-catching. "Surprise combination" Chen Yuxi and Zhang Jiaqi, two girls with an average age of only 16 years old, led the way in the competition and won the women’s synchronized 10-meter platform gold medal without any suspense; Quan Hongchan, who was only 14 years old, even staged the "water spray disappearing" in the women’s 10m platform final, and the "three-jump perfect score" broke the highest score record in Olympic history. Before, some veterans went out to continue to write brilliant stories, and after that, some teenagers rose and new stars shone. Diving Dream Team keeps the legend of China shining in the Olympic Games.

Table tennis was officially listed as an event in the Seoul Olympic Games in 1988. So far, the China table tennis team has won 32 of all 37 gold medals in the 9th Olympic Games. In this Olympic Games, China table tennis team won 4 gold medals and 3 silver medals, but only the mixed doubles event regretted losing the gold medal. Among them, the men’s doubles and women’s doubles events achieved four consecutive Olympic championships, while the women’s singles events achieved nine consecutive Olympic championships, and the 32-year-old Malone became the first person to win the Olympic table tennis men’s singles championship, and became the player who won the most Olympic gold medals in the history of the national table tennis team with a proud score of 5 gold medals. Some netizens said that you can always trust the China table tennis team. In fact, what we believe is not the unbeaten legend, but their determination, belief and courage to keep fighting for the glory of the national ball.

It is not easy to achieve a legend, but it is even more difficult to continue it. Behind the applause and glory are the athletes’ silent persistence and hard work under great pressure.

Liu Guoliang, President of China Table Tennis Association:Everyone has worked hard for five years and everyone has paid a lot. This huge pressure is unimaginable to ordinary people, but we gritted our teeth and did it. What’s important is that we have demonstrated the fighting capacity, cohesion and the spirit of unity of the China team to the people and the world at an extremely difficult time.

On the morning of March 7, the Jiangsu delegation of the Second Session of the 14th National People’s Congress held a plenary meeting, at which the topic of how to protect, utilize and innovate the intangible cultural heritage in Jiangsu in the new era was discussed. In recent years, by strengthening protection, cultivating talent teams and innovating artistic expressions, Jiangsu has made Kunqu Opera, one of the world’s intangible cultural heritages, constantly glow with new charm.

Intangible protection

Ancient Kunqu opera reappears the glory of the times

Kunqu Opera is one of the oldest existing operas in China, and it is called "the father and teacher of hundreds of operas". In May 2001, Kunqu Opera was awarded the title of "masterpiece of oral and intangible heritage of mankind" by UNESCO. Kunqu opera has both cultural heritage and cultural products. Its protection and inheritance will help to enhance people’s awareness of traditional culture and group identity, and promote social cultural prosperity and development.

Kunshan, Jiangsu Province is the birthplace of Kunqu Opera. In recent years, Kunshan regards the protection of Kunqu Opera as an important part of exploring new experiences in building the modern civilization of the Chinese nation, strengthens cultural self-confidence, highlights the spirit of the city, shows the characteristics of the city, and thoroughly implements the three-year action plan for promoting the brand of Kunqu Opera. At the same time, it holds brand activities such as "Beautiful Days and Elegant Collection", "Kunqu Opera Home" and "Chongyang Music Festival", and at the same time, it strengthens the creation of excellent Kunqu Opera, promotes the tour of excellent Kunqu Opera, and promotes it with multiple subjects, types and channels.

Since 2022, the "New Three Years, New Hundred Operas" program has been launched in the Grand Festival of Traditional Opera (Kunshan), focusing on the selection and training of leading opera talents, the support of endangered operas and the construction of China opera heritage base, actively exploring new modes such as "Opera+Tourism", "Opera+Fashion" and "Opera+Industry", which has effectively promoted the protection and development of China operas.

One stage will be Kyushu, and one city will watch hundreds of plays. Since the opening of the Hundred Drama (Kunshan) Festival in 2023, 40 opera troupes across the country have given 26 wonderful performances, with over 15,000 people watching live performances, over 70 million people watching online performances, and nearly 300 million people in five sessions. Sina Weibo has read 400 million people and over 1.6 billion people in five sessions. The Tik Tok has been broadcast for 300 million people, with the cumulative number exceeding 1.2 billion people in five sessions, which fully shows the enduring vitality and colorful weather of Chinese opera.

personnel training

"Xiao Kun Ban" blooms the flower of inheritance

The performance of Kunqu Opera lasted for 400 to 500 years, and there were strict norms for oral instruction. Besides, cultural elites have been involved in the refinement process of Kunqu Opera for a long time since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, so it was inherited in an orderly manner and left us a valuable cultural heritage. Inheritance is the soul of Kunqu Opera’s eternal life. Only by getting more young people to participate in the creation and appreciation of Kunqu Opera can we store endogenous power for the sustainable development of Kunqu Opera.

In 1921, the establishment of Kunqu Opera Studio opened the prelude to the inheritance and development of Kunqu Opera since the 20th century. In April, 1992, the first small Kunqu class in China was formally established in Kunshan No.1 Central Primary School, marking the entrance of Kunqu culture into the campus. By 2023, Kunshan had successively set up 22 small Kunqu classes in primary and secondary schools in the city, and trained more than 5,000 Kunqu students. More than 100 students were selected for further study in professional colleges, and nearly 20 students have become national excellent Kunqu actors.

The establishment of Kunshan Contemporary Kunqu Opera Theatre has also created a platform for outstanding Kunqu students to dream of Kunqu Opera. Many young actors who had the experience of learning opera in Xiaokun class have grown up and matured on the stage of Kunqu Opera Theatre, contributing to the inheritance and promotion of Kunqu Opera culture. At the same time, in the Kunqu Opera Talent Training Class of the Opera School affiliated to Shanghai Theatre Academy, there are also students from Xiaokun Class, who are moving towards the growth of professional actors and waiting for six years to stand on the stage of Kunqu Opera Theatre.

innovative development

Traditional culture realizes cross-border integration.

Under the background of the integration of literature and tourism in the new era, more and more people began to know and like Kunqu opera, and even fell in love with this kind of intangible culture. On the stage, masterpieces of famous rookies such as Peony Pavilion, White Snake and Gu Yanwu continue; In the theater, there are more and more young audiences, which makes people feel that the ancient Kunqu opera art is rejuvenating.

"Immersion" performance is one of the most effective and popular performances of Kunqu Opera. Compared with the past, Kunqu Opera not only exists in professional academies, folk music clubs and inheritance institutions, but also generally appears in various tourist sites and experience projects. Kunqu Opera performances went out of the theater and into the gardens and halls. A series of immersive Kunqu Opera performances were launched, which integrated the appreciation of landscape gardens and listening to operas, making the audience more immersive.

In addition, Kunqu opera is also combined with modern science and technology, relying on technologies such as the Internet and Metauniverse to innovate artistic expression forms. In August, 2022, the Kunqu Opera "Huansha Ji" was performed simultaneously in the Grand Theatre of Kunshan Culture and Art Center and Dayuwan Square through the 5G holographic live broadcast technology, realizing the stage performance "time travel".

This exhibition is an innovation in the way of traditional Chinese opera communication. Holographic projection technology has broken the limit of the number of people and venues in the theater, and made the traditional Chinese opera art really "go out of the theater and approach the public". The first show of "Opera+Science and Technology" has aroused enthusiastic response, which is a new way to promote the spread of opera art to people’s lives. At the same time, the digital guidance of Kunqu opera has also promoted the transformation, application and development of digital resources of traditional culture.

The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Commerce said that it would work with relevant departments to promote digital upgrading in trade-related links, including improving customs clearance efficiency and providing more and more convenient financing support for foreign trade enterprises.

In the field of trade digitalization, the Ministry of Commerce has guided more trade entities to use electronic trade documents and promoted the interconnection between document platform enterprises. Accelerate the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area global trade digital pilot area, and explore the docking of digital infrastructure and rules and standards, so as to accelerate the digital integration development of the whole trade chain.

Ministry of Commerce: It is normal for data fluctuation to attract foreign investment.

Since last year, there have been some fluctuations in China’s data on attracting foreign investment. At the press conference on April 19th, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Commerce said that from the overall situation of global transnational investment and the situation of various economies, fluctuations in data on attracting foreign investment are normal.

In the first quarter of this year, the scale of attracting foreign investment in China exceeded 300 billion yuan. In the same period last year, the scale of attracting foreign investment in China reached the highest level in the history of quarterly investment, and it declined in the first quarter of this year. There are indeed factors affected by the high base. In addition, in the first quarter of this year, the number of newly established foreign-funded enterprises in China reached 12,000, a year-on-year increase of 20.7%, continuing the trend of rapid growth of newly established enterprises since last year.

Ji Xiaofeng, head of the Foreign Investment Management Department of the Ministry of Commerce, said that there is usually a process for foreign investment from project signing, company registration to completion and production. In this process, foreign capital will continue to be invested with the progress of project construction, so data fluctuations are also common.

Ministry of Commerce: China’s investment structure continued to be optimized in the first quarter of this year.

According to the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Commerce, in the first quarter of this year, the actual use of foreign capital in China’s manufacturing industry reached 81.06 billion yuan, of which the investment in high-tech manufacturing industry reached 37.76 billion yuan, accounting for 2.3 and 2.2 percentage points higher than that in the same period of last year, and the investment in medical equipment manufacturing industry increased by 169.7% year-on-year, which fully demonstrated the continuous optimization of China’s investment structure.

At the same time, the person in charge also said that a comprehensive analysis of the situation of attracting foreign investment in China should not only look at the changes in the scale of attracting foreign investment, but also see the optimization of the structure of attracting foreign investment and its future development prospects.

Ministry of Commerce: China deepens national economic and trade cooperation with the Belt and Road Initiative.

At the press conference, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Commerce introduced that since the beginning of this year, China has continuously deepened its economic and trade cooperation with the "Belt and Road" countries and achieved some new progress and new results.

In the first quarter, the import and export of goods between China and co-construction countries exceeded 4.8 trillion yuan, up 5.5%, 0.5 percentage points higher than the overall growth rate of foreign trade, accounting for 47.4% of the total import and export.

From the perspective of export commodities, there are high-tech products such as electronic information, instruments and equipment manufacturing, which are closely related to the production of enterprises, as well as consumer goods such as household appliances and clothing that meet the needs of people’s livelihood.

From the perspective of imported goods, China and the co-construction countries actively share the opportunity of China’s big market. In the first quarter, the energy and mineral products, integrated circuits, auto parts and other industrial products imported from the co-construction countries continued to grow.

In the first quarter, China’s non-financial direct investment in co-construction countries reached 54.32 billion yuan, up 12%, accounting for 22.4% of the total foreign investment in the same period. From the perspective of investment, investment in RCEP member countries increased by 33.5%, and investment in Central and Eastern European countries increased by 41.3%, both of which were significantly higher than the overall growth rate.

Yang Tao, director of the Comprehensive Department of the Ministry of Commerce, said that in terms of exhibition platform, the just-concluded 4th Consumer Expo and the first phase of the 135th Canton Fair attracted a large number of merchants from countries with the Belt and Road Initiative, and the number of buyers from countries with the Belt and Road Initiative participating in the Canton Fair increased by 46%. In the import sector of the Canton Fair, the proportion of exhibitors from countries with the Belt and Road Initiative reached 64%.

Ministry of Commerce: I am confident to achieve the goal of "stable quality and quantity increase" in foreign trade this year.

At the press conference, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Commerce introduced that looking forward to the next stage of foreign trade situation, there are both opportunities and challenges in general. The Ministry of Commerce is working with all localities and departments to study and launch a series of targeted, pragmatic and effective measures to stabilize foreign trade.

The opportunity is that the domestic economy is picking up and the foundation is constantly consolidating. In the first quarter, the national economy grew by 5.3%, and the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 6.1%, which provided a solid foundation for China to consolidate its foreign trade base.

The company’s expectations continue to improve and its confidence continues to increase. In March, the Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) of China’s manufacturing industry reached 50.8%, returning to the expansion range. Recently, a questionnaire survey was conducted among more than 20,000 exhibitors in the Canton Fair. The survey results show that the proportion of enterprises whose orders have increased or remained flat has reached 81.5%, an increase of 16.8 percentage points over the previous session. Enterprises are relatively optimistic about the order situation and are more enthusiastic about exploring the international market.

Key industries have stabilized and improved, and their motivation has been continuously enhanced. After a two-year down cycle, the trade of main products in the electronic information industry is gradually recovering. In the first quarter, China’s integrated circuits increased by 24.2%, imports increased by 14.3%, and exports of computers and parts increased by 8.6%, which also showed the ability of supporting and integrating China’s industries.

From the perspective of challenges, the growth of external demand is expected to slow down. Recently, the WTO released a global trade outlook and statistical report, in which the growth rate of goods trade in 2024 was lowered to 2.6%, which was 0.7 percentage points lower than the forecast value in October last year. In addition, the risk of geopolitical conflict has increased, the momentum of trade protectionism has risen, and the interference and difficulty faced by enterprises in opening up markets have increased.

Guo Tingting, Vice Minister of Commerce, said that at present, the Ministry of Commerce, together with various localities and departments, is working hard to study and launch a series of targeted, pragmatic and effective measures to stabilize foreign trade to help foreign trade enterprises enhance their motivation and open up markets. The Ministry of Commerce is confident and capable of achieving the goal of "stable quality and quantity increase" in foreign trade this year.

Ten departments, including the Ministry of Commerce, jointly issued the Measures to further support overseas institutions to invest in domestic science and technology enterprises.

The reporter learned from the Ministry of Commerce on April 19th that the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the National Development and Reform Commission and other ten departments have recently jointly issued policies and measures to further support overseas institutions to invest in domestic science and technology enterprises.

Clear policies and measures to support overseas institutions to invest in domestic science and technology enterprises through qualified overseas limited partners. It is clear that the establishment of venture capital funds in China by overseas institutions is treated equally with domestic venture capital funds. Encourage overseas institutions to cooperate with relevant domestic institutions to set up relevant funds, and support technology-based enterprises invested by overseas institutions to deepen industrial chain cooperation with relevant countries. According to the tax treaties signed between China and relevant countries, qualified overseas institutions can enjoy preferential income tax when investing in listed companies in China.

Ministry of Commerce: Three areas of innovation are full of vitality and have sustainable growth potential.

On April 19th, the State Council Press Office held a press conference, and the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Commerce introduced that in recent years, China’s export structure has been optimized and upgraded. In the first quarter of this year, three areas were full of innovation vitality and had potential for sustained growth: first, the export base of complete sets of equipment was solid; second, the export demand of smart products increased; and third, low-carbon energy-saving and environmental protection products were very popular.

Ministry of Commerce: New export growth points will continue to emerge.

In addition, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Commerce also introduced that in the first quarter of this year, the export of China’s labor-intensive products increased by 9.1%. Among them, the export of textiles and clothing increased by 5.4%, the export of plastic products increased by 14%, and the export of furniture and its parts increased by 23.5%. At present, China manufacturing is moving towards China creation. New export growth points will continue to emerge, and the Ministry of Commerce is confident to achieve the goal of "stable quality and quantity increase" in foreign trade this year.
