The "2022 Young People’s Domestic Consumption Trend Report" was released, and the post-95 s are more inclined to "pay for love"

Recently, according to the "2022 Young People’s Domestic Consumption Trend Report", young consumers have bought more domestic goods than before this year. Among brands that have formed a certain sales scale, the proportion of domestic users after 1995 increased by 11% year-on-year, and the overall ratio of users who bought domestic goods to imported goods was 1.7, which was 1.3 in the same period of 2021. The top three domestic goods that young consumers love to buy are kitchen utensils, fresh food and household appliances, while the top three imported goods that they love to buy are personal care, beauty and skin care, toys and musical instruments.

Why do young people become more patriotic

China brand is constantly improving product quality through innovative research and development, and embracing the younger generation of consumers.
According to the report, China brand has launched more fashionable products that are in line with young people’s aesthetics. In the era of paying attention to the ratio of beauty to price, practicality can no longer meet the needs of young consumers, who are more inclined to choose products that can improve their happiness.

For example, in the category of kitchenware and small kitchen appliances with a high preference for domestic products, young consumers will choose to exchange their cooking experience in their own kitchens through videos or words, which also makes various high-value trends of online celebrity kitchen products become popular, such as the octagonal non-stick pan made in online celebrity, the air fryer with "one pot can do everything", the stewing beaker with heat preservation and fresh keeping, and the kitchen storage utensils with lovely patterns, all of which bear the innovative marks of China brand products.

China brand also pays more attention to young people’s application scenarios and experience. The report shows that the consumption of domestic products formed by traditional festivals and cultures is becoming increasingly popular, which is mainly reflected in the consumption of food. In addition to the traditional classic tastes, major food companies are constantly developing new products and new combinations in terms of packaging and taste, attracting the attention of more young consumers. At the same time, in the use experience, young consumers show a change in their expectations of domestic products through commodity evaluation keywords. They no longer only pay attention to "affordable" and "big brand replacement", but pay more attention to "product quality" and "whether family/friends like it".
In the surge of "national tide", time-honored products are constantly innovating and attracting young consumers. The survey shows that 75% of young people are interested in the innovation of time-honored brands, and the consumption trend also proves this point. After 1995 in 2021, the amount of time-honored goods purchased increased by 315% year-on-year. During the "618" promotion period in JD.COM, the sales of white rabbit toffee only accounted for 20% after 1995, but in the sales of white rabbit perfume and shower gel, the sales of white rabbit after 1995 accounted for 46% and 41% respectively. Among the Ejiao sold by Tongrentang, the purchase amount after 95 accounts for only 4%, but the mask of Tongrentang accounts for 23% after 95. It is not difficult to see that relying on the cognitive advantages of time-honored brands in culture and brand, coupled with products, functions, designs and marketing methods that resonate with young consumers, the probability of success in breaking the circle will be very high.

The new generation advocates "paying for love"

CCTV’s consumption survey shows that the younger generation of China born in the Millennium has gradually become the dominant force in China’s economy, culture and consumption. They have strong social needs and extremely high aesthetic requirements; They are keen on consumption, but they are not consumption-oriented; They advocate ideas, and quality content is more culturally confident.
From the point of view of shopping demand, contemporary young people return to rationality in the consumption of brands and products, no longer blindly follow the big names, and no longer follow the crowd to buy explosions, but choose products according to their own preferences, and they have also become a group of "paying for love". Under this trend, a large number of new brands or products have emerged, such as foods and beverages with reduced fat and sugar, household appliances with high-tech applications, and beauty and skin care products that highlight ingredient effects. To some extent, young people are reshaping business brands and business culture.

From the perspective of typical categories, since January this year, the post-1995 generation prefer domestic products in the selection of kitchen utensils, fresh food, household appliances and other categories, and even the proportion of domestic products in coffee sets, audio-visual entertainment equipment and other categories has gradually increased.

According to the report, water utensils, wine utensils, kitchen accessories and tableware are the top three sub-categories in the category of kitchen utensils, and the number of domestic users in these categories accounts for more than 60%, 80% and 90% respectively. The sub-categories with faster growth of domestic users are coffee utensils, cooking pots and tableware, with year-on-year growth rates of 181%, 140% and 84% respectively.

Among the fresh food categories, fruits, pastry baking and dairy cold drinks are the top three sub-categories in terms of the number of shopping users after 1995, and domestic products account for more than 90%, 80% and 70% respectively. Instant cooked food, pastry baking and vegetables are the sub-categories with rapid growth in the number of domestic products, with year-on-year increases of 257%, 72% and 50% respectively.

In addition, among sports goods, puffed food, beverages, convenience food, sports nutrition, women’s clothing, drinking water, paper wipes, vegetarian preserved meat and other categories, consumers after 1995 are also very concerned about domestic products.

"Small Town Youth" should pay attention to the consumption of domestic products.

There is more sense of identity with domestic products, and young consumers are also pursuing high-quality and cost-effective consumption in the face of China brands, which also inspires enterprises to constantly establish their own sense of quality when developing and promoting products, and continuously improve their word of mouth in order to win the favor of more young consumers. On the whole, among the young consumers in the sinking market, both big brands and small and medium-sized brands will usher in more development opportunities.
According to the report, Shanxi, Gansu, Hebei, Guangxi and Guizhou are the top five provinces in terms of the ratio of the number of users who buy domestic goods to imported goods, with the ratios ranging from 1.8 to 1.9. At the same time, the top five cities in terms of the growth rate of users purchasing domestic products are Lishui, Zhejiang, Jixi, Heilongjiang, Xuzhou, Jiangsu, Luohe, Henan and Quanzhou, Fujian.

According to the report, under the epidemic situation, China brand plays an important role in ensuring supply and cultivates the domestic consumption habits of young people. With the open market and the recovery of international supply chain, consumers’ shopping choices are still diverse. From the data point of view, in the categories of beauty and skin care, personal care, toys and musical instruments, young people have a higher preference for imported brand goods, while in the categories of kitchen utensils, fresh food and household appliances, young people have a higher preference for China brand goods. Geographically, compared with imported brands, young people who love domestic products are more concentrated in "non-first-tier cities", especially those in the sinking market have a higher preference for domestic products. When developing and promoting new products, major China brand enterprises can focus on the shopping needs of "young people in small towns".

Once again, the Security Council failed to adopt the draft resolution on the situation in Palestine and Israel, and China expressed shock and disappointment.

  China news agency, United Nations, October 18th The UN Security Council voted on another draft resolution on the situation in Palestine and Israel on the 18th. The draft resolution was not adopted because the United States, a permanent member, exercised its veto. Speaking after the vote, Zhang Jun, Permanent Representative of China to the United Nations, said that China was shocked and disappointed that the draft resolution was not adopted.

  The draft resolution proposed by Brazil was voted on that day. The draft resolution condemns the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) and all acts of violence against civilians, urges all parties to abide by international law and provide basic goods and services to civilians continuously, fully and unhindered, and calls for the withdrawal of civilians and United Nations staff from the northern part of the Gaza Strip to ensure humanitarian assistance.

  The voting results showed that 12 countries in the Security Council voted for it, the United States voted against it, and Russia and Britain abstained. Because the United States, a permanent member of the Security Council, exercised its veto power, the draft resolution could not be adopted. Before the vote on the draft resolution, Russia also proposed two amendments to add two paragraphs, which were also not adopted.

  In his explanatory speech after the vote, Zhang Jun said that the Russian draft resolution was put forward the night before yesterday, focusing on the humanitarian concerns of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and calling for an immediate ceasefire to protect civilians, which was supported and co-sponsored by many Arab countries. However, some countries chose to vote against it because they were willing to ask for more time to seek consensus on the basis of the draft resolution proposed by Brazil. Brazilian colleagues and many members of the Security Council showed a constructive attitude and agreed to postpone the voting for 24 hours, and then postponed it until now. In the past 40 hours, they have neither expressed their opinions nor expressed their opposition to the Palestinian draft, which makes us expect that they can support the draft today and the Security Council can pass the resolution smoothly, but the final voting result is unbelievable.

  Zhang Jun pointed out that China believes that there is still room for improvement in Brazil’s draft resolution, and it should send a strong signal to demand a ceasefire, protect civilians and avoid a humanitarian disaster. For this reason, China put forward suggestions to improve the text and supported the Russian amendment. We are very sorry that the amendment was not passed. Nevertheless, considering that the situation on the ground in Gaza is deteriorating rapidly, the air raid on the hospital yesterday caused hundreds of civilian deaths, and the Security Council needs to take swift and forceful action. China strongly condemns the air strikes on hospitals and urges Israel to earnestly fulfill its obligations under international humanitarian law. China calls for an immediate ceasefire to protect civilians and avoid a greater humanitarian disaster.

  Zhang Jun said that the draft resolution put forward by Brazil generally reflects the universal voice of the international community, represents the initial step for the Security Council to promote a ceasefire, and may be the only text that the Security Council can reach an agreement under the current situation. The countries concerned verbally stressed that the Security Council should take correct actions, but their voting position made us suspect that they didn’t want the Security Council to take any action at all and didn’t want to really solve the problem. In any case, the Council cannot stand still. At present, the situation in Gaza is escalating, and more civilians are paying their lives and suffering. The Security Council should listen to the just cry of the Arab countries and the Palestinian people, and earnestly fulfill its responsibilities and play its role in stopping the war, protecting civilians and avoiding a greater humanitarian disaster.

Taking stock of the peach scandal between teachers and students in colleges and universities, the tutor’s hidden marriage has a relationship with students

  From the perspective of accelerating the construction of China’s modern university system, it has become an urgent issue that cannot be avoided in the healthy development of China’s higher education to re-examine the ethical relationship between teachers and students.

  The roles between teachers and students in colleges and universities are not equal. Even if the relationship between teachers and students is pure, it will undermine fair competition, which is not in line with the principle of interest avoidance in the modern university system.

  It is also in line with the basic principles of professional ethics to prohibit the love between teachers and students. This means that if you choose a teacher as a profession, you should give up some aspects of freedom.

  Should other forms of relationships beyond teachers and students be allowed on campus?

  In 2010, the General Office of the State Council issued the Notice on Launching the Pilot Reform of the National Education System, which clarified the reform task of establishing a modern university system. The author finds that bringing the connotation and extension of modern university system into operation under the national conditions of China will inevitably face various obstacles and contradictions. Among them, the enrollment corruption, academic misconduct and the scandal between teachers and students are some realistic problems with great negative influence, and they are also urgent problems that must be solved in building a modern university system in China. For the latter, because it will involve sex, extramarital love and family conflicts, stimulating and challenging China’s traditional family ethics will often become the focus of public opinion and news media.

  Especially in recent years, some well-known universities in China have frequently exposed the scandals of teachers and students. For example, a male professor of a university in Xiamen was reported to have been photographed half naked by students, and Professor jane doe was reported to have seduced his doctoral students. An associate professor at a university in Beijing was reported for having sex with female students; Long-term sexual abuse of female students by the vice president of a university in Shanghai was reported … … Similar cases occur frequently, and the list is endless.

  The author sorts out some incidents in recent years and finds that the love between teachers and students is mostly due to conflicts such as interest disputes, emotional deception, family disputes, etc., and finally it is made public in the form of revelations, reports and sex scandals. One of the worst cases is that some teachers with corrupt moral character have sex with students through deception, hidden marriage, and even coercion and inducement, which has a very serious impact and consequences.

  This kind of phenomenon has a bad influence on the reputation of colleges and universities, which greatly worsens the public’s perception of college teachers. There are even various malicious banter words such as "calling animals" instead of "professors" in society. The "rat excrement" effect of sex scandals in colleges and universities makes university teachers, who were originally intellectuals and shouldered the heavy responsibility of educating and educating people for the country, lose their dignity and reputation.

  Therefore, from the perspective of accelerating the construction of China’s modern university system, it has become an urgent issue that cannot be avoided in the healthy development of higher education in China to re-examine the ethical relationship between teachers and students in universities, especially how to regulate and restrain the abnormal emotional and sexual relations between teachers and students on campus.

  Under the modern university system, should the university campus allow other forms of relationship between teachers and students beyond teachers and students?

  "Teachers and students can’t fall in love" is a well-known common sense in American universities.

  We might as well look at how foreign universities view and deal with this problem.

  Before the 1980s, there were no explicit provisions or restrictions on the emotional or other relationships between teachers and students in the teachers’ codes of American universities. However, in 1983, the dean of the School of Arts and Sciences of Harvard University publicly pointed out that the romantic relationship between teachers and students was wrong, which aroused a great discussion on this ethical relationship between teachers and students in the educational circles, feminist organizations and judicial circles in the United States. In 1984, Harvard University was the first to issue a ban on romantic relationships between professors (including their student assistants) and their direct students. In 1986, the University of Iowa also stipulated that professors were not allowed to have romantic relationships with students who were taking their own classes or guiding themselves. However, if students do not attend the professor’s class and are not the students instructed by the professor, this relationship can also be acquiesced.

  This management mode of Harvard and the University of Iowa became the main mode for American universities to standardize the management of similar ethical relations between teachers and students in the 1980s and 1990s. Until 2001, a teacher at William and Mary College in Virginia revealed her love story with a married student, which caused a great sensation in the United States. This incident forced nine universities in California to jointly revise the teachers’ code and introduce stricter regulations, prohibiting all teachers and students from having any other relationship beyond the teacher-student relationship. This is the first time in American universities that teachers and students who have no direct guidance relationship can’t fall in love. The ban points out that no matter whether teachers are married or unmarried, they are not allowed to have a relationship with students. If there is a love affair, one of the parties must choose to leave school voluntarily — — Teachers leave or students drop out of school.

  In practice, because teachers are on the power side, once this relationship between teachers and students is made public, schools often punish teachers instead of students. With few exceptions, any teacher who has this relationship will be fired or expelled once he is found out. At present, this code has been adopted by most American universities, especially famous private universities.

  After more than 30 years of constant debate and revision, it is now a common sense that "teachers and students can’t fall in love" in American colleges and universities.

  Japan is a relatively open country, but the requirements and supervision of university teachers are very strict. In Japan, the relationship between teachers and students is very sensitive. Once the abnormal relationship between teachers and students is found, the parties will face severe punishment, and students will not dare to sacrifice their reputation to have intimate relations with teachers. In 1993, Professor Kyono Chang of Kyoto University was forced to quit his teaching post because of the affair of sex, and went to Tofuku-ji Temple, the capital of Kyoto, to practice, and was soon expelled from the temple. In 1996, he had to leave Japan and was abandoned by Japanese society. In 1999, he died in another country, with a miserable end.

  In Britain, due to many sexual harassment incidents on campus, in 2007, many universities stipulated that teachers should report to the school if they fall in love with students, so as to prevent teachers from "favoritism" or sexually harassing students.

  In Germany, although there is no special law explicitly prohibiting the love between teachers and students in colleges and universities, the so-called love between teachers and students or similar relationship beyond teaching and learning will not only be condemned by morality, but also violate the professional standards of teachers. Especially in recent years, with the younger teachers in Germany and the increasingly precocious students, teacher-student love and other events that are not in proper relationship, the relevant German institutions have begun to appeal in the Federal Parliament to draft special laws as soon as possible to prohibit teachers from having love relationships and sexual behaviors with students.

  It can be seen that some countries, such as Japan and the United States, have strict control over teachers and students’ feelings beyond teachers and students or proper relationship.

  The "Red Seven Articles" in colleges and universities should explicitly prohibit any form of teacher-student love.

  The author believes that on the basis of learning from foreign experience, it is necessary to carefully examine and sort out the new ethical relationship between teachers and students in modern university campuses, make detailed definitions and norms, and introduce relevant measures and management methods.

  Traditionally speaking, China has been a country that respects teachers and values education since ancient times. It has the traditional thought of "learning to be a teacher and being a model", and even more, it has the ethical concept of "being a teacher for a day and being a father for life". It is these cultures that are deeply rooted in people’s hearts that make teachers a noble and sacred profession, and also have higher expectations and requirements for teachers’ ethics.

  In 2014, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized at the Teachers’ Day Symposium of Beijing Normal University: "A qualified teacher should first be morally qualified, and a good teacher should first be a model of teaching and standing by virtue. We must actively guide the majority of college teachers to be good teachers who are satisfied with the party and the people with ideals and beliefs, moral sentiments, solid knowledge and kindness. "

  In response to the call, the Ministry of Education immediately issued the "Opinions on Establishing and Perfecting the Long-term Mechanism of Teachers’ Morality Construction in Colleges and Universities", and drew out the "Red Seven Articles" of teachers’ morality prohibition behaviors that have warning and educational significance for college teachers. Article 7 clearly stipulates: "Sexual harassment of students or proper relationship with students, and other behaviors that violate the professional ethics of college teachers are strictly prohibited." The author believes that the "Red Seven Articles" is of milestone significance for standardizing the ethical relationship between teachers and students in colleges and universities under the modern university system and building teachers’ ethics in colleges and universities.

  The launch of the "Red Seven Articles" in colleges and universities is just the right time, especially the seventh article, which sets a circle and rules for establishing the normal ethical relationship between teachers and students in colleges and universities. Here, the author also wants to put forward specific suggestions on article 7 from the implementation level:

  On the one hand, it is necessary to explicitly prohibit any form of college teacher-student love.

  One view is that teachers and students in colleges and universities are adults, and there is no identity problem. It is normal for teachers and students to fall in love freely. China’s cultural tradition holds a favorable or tolerant attitude towards other forms of relations between teachers and students in colleges and universities that surpass teachers and students. Tracing back to the Republic of China, there are many literary stories in which teachers and students such as Lu Xun and Xu Guangping, Qu Qiubai and Yang Zhihua, Shen Congwen and Zhang Zhaohe fell in love and got married. In 2014, the media reported that a senior student of a university in Jilin successfully proposed marriage to a university teacher who had been in love for three years, and public opinion was full of support and praise.

  In fact, from the perspective of ethics, in addition to the traditional basic relationship between teachers and students, in the modern university system, emotional and even sexual relations between teachers and students have become more and more sensitive in the ethical relationship between teachers and students. Because it is difficult to define, standardize and deal with, it forms a vague area in people’s understanding and also causes great controversy.

  In my opinion, although college students are adults, their world outlook, outlook on life and values are still in a critical period of formation, and their minds are not fully mature, so the love between teachers and students is hardly pure love. What is important is that the roles between teachers and students in colleges and universities are not equal, and there are relationships in management, power and interests. Even if teachers and students are pure emotional relationships, this relationship will undermine fair competition and does not conform to the principle of interest avoidance in the modern university system.

  It is also in line with the basic principles of professional ethics to prohibit the love between teachers and students. Just like doctors and patients, lawyers and clients, priests and church members can’t fall in love or have sexual relations, the requirements of teacher-student relationship should also be in line with these occupations. This means that if you choose a teacher as a career, you should give up some aspects of freedom.

  On the other hand, strengthen the supervision and management of the ethical relationship between teachers and students in colleges and universities, and strengthen the accountability of those who touch the red line. According to the author’s observation, in recent years, the relevant units have been excessively lenient in dealing with the exposed peach affair and sex scandal. After the incident is exposed, the radish is often pulled out and the mud is brought up. With other lesions such as academic misconduct and misappropriation of funds, the units involved classify emotional and sexual relations as private morality and pay insufficient attention to them. Often, the board is held high and gently put down. In particular, some people involved in the case have certain academic attainments, titles and hats, and the units concerned even use the excuse of cherishing talents and rare talents to minimize major issues and avoid troubles. What’s more, some parties can continue to stay in the teaching staff by changing units, which is not affected at all.

  In addition, the relevant accountability means are not clear and specific enough. It can be seen from the handling results of several incidents exposed on the Internet that it is difficult to find relevant basis and clear explanation for the handling and punishment of teachers and students who are not proper relationship, and even the Red Seven Articles have not given specific disciplinary measures and measures; As a weak group, it is difficult for students to find effective complaint channels and departments after the incident, and their interests cannot be protected. In the end, they can only be exposed on the Internet, forming a whirlpool of public opinion. This also shows that the supervision responsibility of discipline supervision units in some units is not in place, and discipline is lost.

  China’s higher education is in the process of all-round modernization, and many universities are drafting university statutes to establish a modern university system. The author hereby appeals that we should start with standardizing and reconstructing the ethics of teachers and students in colleges and universities, seriously consider and sort out how to establish a healthy and good relationship between teachers and students under the modern university system, unify our thinking and understanding, and pay more attention to the frequent campus peach scandals in recent years, and increase the handling and punishment. By establishing rules and regulations, prevention comes first, and the campus atmosphere is further purified, creating a clean environment for the healthy growth of students and escorting the training of young talents.

Smooth "double circulation", Jiangsu "hot metal combined transport" enters the fast lane

Jiangsu Tongjiang reaches the sea and is endowed with unique water transport resources. The total length of railways built in the province has exceeded 4,500 kilometers, and the comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network has been improved day by day. Both railways and waterways have the characteristics of large capacity, low cost, green and low carbon. In recent years, focusing on building a transportation pattern of "iron is suitable for iron, water is suitable for water, and public is suitable for public", Jiangsu has continuously promoted the adjustment of transportation structure, developed multimodal transport, improved comprehensive transportation efficiency, and reduced social logistics costs. Hot metal combined transport is an important type of multimodal transport. According to the latest statistics, in 2023, the province’s waterway and railway freight volume totaled 1.26 billion tons, a year-on-year increase of 6.5%. The container multimodal transport volume and inland container transport volume were 2.32 million and 1.455 million TEUs, up by 15.2% and 19.9% year-on-year. The volume of "iron-water combined transport" has been rising all the way.

Convenient and efficient, the railway reaches the port and is connected with a huge ship.

Recently, a sea-rail intermodal train loaded with photovoltaic modules blew its whistle from Yancheng North Railway Freight Yard, headed for Shanghai Port, and then transferred to Europe by sea.

"The’ Yancheng North-Shanghai Port’ sea-rail intermodal train runs regularly every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. When the goods exported by enterprises get on the train, it is equivalent to arriving at Shanghai Port, which is fast and efficient. This train can reduce the logistics cost of 1000 yuan for enterprises." Xi Peng, deputy general manager of Xinchang Company of Provincial Railway Group, said that in the freight volume of Yancheng North Freight Yard last year, the sea-rail combined transport volume accounted for more than 90% of the total shipments. Up to now, the company has opened more than 10 sea-rail combined transport lines, including Hai ‘an-Luchao Port, Yuanbei-Beilun Port and Wuxi West-Guangzhou International Port. A total of 51,775 vehicles, accounting for 1,400,143.2 tons, were delivered by sea-rail combined transport, with the number of vehicles delivered increasing by 78% and the tonnage increasing by 79% year-on-year. The opening of these classes has greatly boosted the local economic extroversion.

In 2023, Changzhou’s sea-rail combined transport operation was in good condition. In the first 10 months, 65,166 TEUs of heavy containers were delivered, a year-on-year increase of 33.7%, and the annual plan of 60,000 TEUs was completed ahead of schedule.

"In 2018 and 2019, Changzhou-Ningbo Port and Changzhou-Shanghai Port sea-rail intermodal trains were opened one after another. The sea-rail intermodal trains have developed from the initial one train per week to the current 17 trains per week, and the delivery volume has also increased from the original 12,000 TEUs per year to 77,000 TEUs in 2023, saving transportation costs for enterprises by over 100 million yuan." Shi Zelin, General Transportation Department of Changzhou Municipal Transportation Bureau, introduced that since 2020, the Changzhou-Shanghai Port sea-rail train has become the train line with the largest volume and the most stable operation among all the sea-rail trains in Shanghai Port, and was awarded the "Shanghai Port Sea-rail Intermodal Transport Demonstration Base" by Shanghai Port.

On January 12, Lianyungang Port Terminal. Looking around, the container yard is very spectacular. The railway leading to the port is connected with a huge ship, and the efficient hot metal combined transport system sends containers to their destinations between the sea and the sky.

"In 2023, Lianyungang completed a total of 854,012 TEUs of container hot metal combined transport, an increase of 8.1% year-on-year." Xu Yue, director of the container train in the container division of Lianyungang Port Holding Group, said that since last year, Lianyungang Port has accelerated its integration into the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta, and provided competitive "one-price" products for the majority of enterprises in the central and western regions, gradually achieving the goal of combined transportation of hot metal and water.

"Relying on the seamless connection between the Yaohuamen Station of China Railway and Nanjing longtan port Railway, the company has launched three excellent multimodal transport lines, including Nanjing-Shanghai and Huainan-Nanjing, which have realized the fixed-point, fixed-line, fixed-train, timed, priced and scheduled operation of intermodal transport lines, ensured the stability and timeliness of logistics transport channels, and actively served key enterprises in Nanjing and surrounding areas, such as Nanjing LG, Chuzhou Jingke Photovoltaic and Longji Photovoltaic." Shi Qingsong, general manager of Nanjing Shenghai Multimodal Transport Co., Ltd., introduced that in 2023, Nanjing Port completed 156,800 TEUs of container multimodal transport, up 49.8% year-on-year, maintaining the number one inland port, and achieving remarkable results in reducing comprehensive logistics costs and carbon reduction targets of enterprises.

Rich in goods, think what the enterprise wants and what the enterprise wants.

In 2019, Changzhou established a professional sea-rail combined transport company, which was guided by the supply chain thinking, thought about what enterprises thought and what enterprises were anxious about, standardized various modes of transport and set reasonable transport prices.

"At the beginning of the operation of the sea-rail intermodal train, the supply of goods included diesel engines, syringes, cables, tractor accessories, intelligent sensing equipment, pharmaceutical products, traffic track accessories and other traditional advantageous industrial products in Changzhou." Shi Zelin said that in recent years, with the construction of Changzhou’s new energy capital, the transportation volume of products in the new energy industry has risen sharply, and the sea-rail combined transport has been continuously adjusted. In February 2023, the first sea-rail combined transport train for new energy vehicles was opened. Last year, more than 17,000 vehicles were sent, which became an important channel for the export of new energy vehicles in Changzhou.

Photovoltaic industry is another business card of Changzhou’s new energy industry. In the Science and Technology Warehouse of Trina Solar Changzhou Base, boxes of finished photovoltaic modules are waiting to be loaded and sent to all parts of the world. As the main chain enterprise of photovoltaic industry, Trina Solar’s sales area has expanded to more than 150 countries and regions around the world, and the shipment volume has increased by more than 10 times compared with 10 years ago. The stable delivery channel is the lifeline to ensure the development of enterprises.

"Highway transportation is basically about 300 kilometers. For transportation over 300 kilometers, we will use multimodal transportation, such as railway and waterway connection, which makes the transportation capacity more flexible and abundant, and the transportation cost is reduced by about 10%." Su Huizhong, head of Trina Solar’s global logistics, said that the sea-rail intermodal trains actively connect with photovoltaic enterprises and provide stable delivery channels for enterprises by expanding transportation capacity. At present, single photovoltaic products have exceeded 10% of the total transportation volume.

Yan Peng introduced that in order to better meet the strong transportation demand of photovoltaic enterprises, on the basis of the normal operation of photovoltaic trains such as Yancheng North-Karamay North and Yancheng North-Golmud, a number of photovoltaic trains such as Yangzhou North-Jinta, Yangzhou North-Jiuquan and Taizhou West-Baotou West were successively added. The company promoted the implementation of the "more active and closer" "sinking" service measures, sent employees to take root in the front line, helped the transportation of photovoltaic modules to continue to increase, and ensured the stable delivery of photovoltaic modules. Last year, the company sent a total of 12,837 vehicles and 367,938.68 tons of photoelectric plates, an increase of 11,994 vehicles and 344,369.98 tons respectively.

"The goods of Lianyungang Port’s hot metal combined transport mainly include Xuzhou construction machinery parts, tires, Henan pebbles, Hefei white goods, cassava starch in Southeast Asia, and tiles in South China." Xu Yue analyzed the rapid growth of freight volume since last year, saying that the first reason is to set up 11 overseas container office outlets and Henan marketing centers at important nodes such as Sulu, Henan, Anhui, etc., focusing on "connecting goods and transportation" and the hinterland market along the Longhai, and newly opening trains from Pangu Temple to Lianyungang, Hefei to Lianyungang and Lianyungang to Zhengzhou and Xinxiang westbound to help the goods in the central and western regions go to sea in an all-round way. The second is to pilot the business process of "multimodal transport+direct loading in Hong Kong" in Lianxu, and quickly realize the high-quality development of the train operation of Xulianhai railway combined transport. Third, actively integrate into the construction of "Lianhuaixu" combined hub, cooperate with Xuzhou dry port to operate the digital platform of multimodal transport, and jointly develop market supply.

"Thanks to the rapid development of export-oriented economy in Nanjing and its surrounding metropolitan areas, there is a strong demand for logistics products exported to Europe and the United States. With key enterprises such as LG Electric, Jingke Photovoltaic, Longji Photovoltaic and Jiangsu Sumeida as representatives, the main foreign trade export products include washing machines, refrigerators, solar module, monitors, auto parts, furniture and daily necessities, which provide excellent basic conditions for the operation of sea-rail trains along the Yangtze River." Shi Qingsong said that by continuously strengthening the efficient serial port and railway, the company provides "one-stop" service to foreign trade enterprises within the radiation range of Nanjing metropolitan area, and the supply of goods is still increasing.

Optimize the passage, break through the blocking point and build the hub adjustment structure

With the continuous construction and improvement of Jiangsu high-speed rail network, the freight capacity of trunk railways such as Beijing-Shanghai, Longhai, Xinchang and Ningwu has been effectively released, and more than 110 multimodal transport demonstration lines and 24 China-Europe train lines have been expanded, supporting the growth rate of railway freight volume.

Pei Jianping, deputy chief planner of Huashe Design Group, said that although railway freight has developed rapidly in recent years, the backbone role of railway freight in Jiangsu’s comprehensive transportation system has not been fully exerted, and the railway freight volume and turnover are only about 3%; The railway transportation of bulk materials such as mining construction, bulk groceries, oil, natural gas and products is also less than 6%. In short, Jiangsu’s freight structure still has a lot of room for optimization and adjustment, and the freight volume of railway and water transport needs to be further accelerated.

"Under the current background, around the deployment of the Implementation Plan for Promoting High-quality Development of Iron-water Intermodal Transport in Jiangsu Province (2023-2025), to further enhance the railway freight volume and promote the development of iron-water intermodal transport, it is necessary to speed up the improvement of the’ three vertical and three horizontal’ railway freight passages, especially the construction of railway passages behind the port." Pei Jianping believes that in view of the bottleneck problems such as saturated transportation capacity of railway freight corridors in our province, low standards of some lines, and insufficient cross-river freight capacity, we can speed up the improvement of the functions of coastal freight corridors by expanding the capacity of new lines and opening the freight functions of green salt and salt. Through the construction of high-speed railway along the river in the north and the expansion and transformation of Ningwu, the westward radiation capacity of the channel along the river will be accelerated. Relying on the capacity building of freight channels and inland terminals, we will focus on building hot metal combined transport channels along the new Eurasian continental bridge, along the river and along the coast.

At the same time, it is particularly critical to smooth the "last mile" of railway transportation. According to the survey, at present, the coverage rate of special railway lines in the whole province is insufficient and the utilization level is not high, which is about 55%. The railway entry rate of 20 key port areas along the Yangtze River and the coast is only 40%. "It is necessary to focus on resource-rich areas, major ports and logistics parks, speed up the construction of railway special branch lines, form a modern railway collection and distribution system with effective connection of trunk and branch lines and multimodal and efficient intermodal transport, and realize full coverage of railway special lines in key port areas along the Yangtze River." Yan Jianping said.

At present, there are eight special railway branches under construction in the province. According to the plan, the special railway line of Lianyungang Economic Development Zone Processing and Assembly Park, Binhai Port Railway Line and Canal Suqian Port Railway Line will be built this year.

Zhao Guobin, general manager of Nantong Yanglu Railway Company, said that Yanglu Railway is a key project for the construction of a new international first-class port in tongzhou bay, connecting four ports and connecting with Ningqi and Haiyang Railway. It is a special railway line integrating the combined transport of iron, sea and molten iron. Since the first bid section was officially put into operation last year, it has mainly transported coal for Zhongtian Iron and Steel, and now it has transported 37 trains, totaling 73,000 tons. The future prospect of Yanglu Railway can be expected.

"Synchronization should further improve the multimodal transport hub system and improve the service level of freight nodes." Pei Jianping said that while further improving the functions of existing multimodal transport freight hubs such as Nanjing longtan port, Suzhou International Railway Logistics Center and Lianyungang SCO International Logistics Park, it is necessary to accelerate the construction of a number of multimodal transport freight hubs such as Xuzhou land port Logistics Base, Lujiabang Freight Yard and Xinyi Public Railway Logistics Base. Make full use of Jiangsu’s "six vertical and six horizontal" high-speed rail network resources, study the layout of high-speed rail logistics nodes and air-rail intermodal hubs, and build an efficient and convenient high-speed rail logistics channel with internal communication and external communication. In addition, it is necessary to enrich the connotation of China-Europe trains and expand the radiation range of trains; We should actively innovate the freight mode and improve the efficiency of intermodal service.

Xi Peng said that the company is actively docking local logistics development planning, accelerating the expansion and transformation of key freight yards such as Taizhou West and Yancheng North, promoting the integrated development of modern railway parks, logistics parks and industrial parks, and comprehensively improving freight capacity and logistics service level. At present, relevant strategic cooperation framework agreements and project agent construction agreements have been signed with Yancheng City and Taizhou City to promote the implementation of the capacity expansion and reconstruction project of the railway freight yard in Yancheng North and Taizhou West Station, and jointly build a regional railway logistics park.

Xu Yue introduced that this year, it is planned to promote the inclusion of classes in Xuzhou and Zhengzhou, develop classes in important nodes such as Hefei, speed up the construction of empty container centers in Xuzhou and other regions, promote the pre-positioning of empty containers and the establishment of container return points by shipping companies, and carry out domestic trade business in combination with the "one-single system", and strive to complete 850,000 TEUs by sea-rail combined transport and 25,000 TEUs by water tank loading and unloading.

"Around the sea-rail combined transport, Changzhou will continue to exert its efforts on the development of" one single system "and" one box ",promote platform construction, break through information barriers, form a high-energy logistics hub network, and let resource elements gather in Changzhou on their own initiative. Accelerate the construction of the empty container circulation center to make the import and export logistics and transportation channels smoother. " Shi Zelin said.

Multi-measures to strengthen agricultural disaster relief

  Cctv news(News Network): Recently, extreme heavy rainfall in North China and Northeast China caused floods, which had a great impact on agricultural production. At present, many measures have been taken by various localities to implement disaster relief and post-disaster production recovery measures for agriculture, and strive to reduce disaster losses.

  Heilongjiang Province is an important grain producing province in China, and recent heavy rainfall has caused floods in some cities and counties such as Harbin and Mudanjiang. In Shuangcheng, the traditional dominant corn industry planting area, local cadres and masses are making every effort to repair drainage ditches, clean up silt and allocate agricultural materials, and strive to minimize losses.

  In the past few days, the agricultural and rural departments in Hebei Province have organized forces to seize the "window period", speed up the drainage of accumulated water in the fields, shorten the flooding time of crops and reduce the affected area. In Yongnian District of Handan City, the accumulated water in the 500-mu corn and soybean strip compound planting plot of Hao Yunying, a large grain grower, has been basically drained. After carefully checking the soil moisture and seedling situation, the agricultural technicians informed him of the key points of autumn grain management after the rain.

  In order to help the disaster-stricken areas resume production as soon as possible, Hebei Supply and Marketing Cooperative has urgently allocated 50,000 tons of chemical fertilizers and 200 tons of pesticides, and sent 10 working groups to guide flood control and disaster relief work in various places. In view of the current disaster situation, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has made further arrangements for agricultural disaster relief and autumn grain production, requiring all localities to pay attention to drainage and disaster relief in the affected areas, do their utmost to reduce disaster losses, pay attention to autumn grain field management in the unaffected areas, and go all out to increase yield per unit area, and strive to achieve more production in non-disaster areas, stable production in light disaster areas, and less production reduction in severe disaster areas.

How should the economic situation be viewed?

  How should the economic situation be viewed?

  Juli

  Scientific understanding of the economic situation is the basic prerequisite for doing a good job in economic work. The current economic situation is complicated. What should we think? Widely concerned at home and abroad. In order to penetrate the layers of fog, grasp the development law, see the development trend clearly and draw a correct conclusion, we must have scientific theoretical guidance. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that learning and understanding the basic principles and methodology of Marxist political economy will help us master scientific economic analysis methods. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has persisted in applying the basic theory and methodology of Marxist political economy, scientifically analyzed the economic situation from the combination of history and reality, theory and practice, and domestic and international, grasped the general trend of development, and made a systematic exposition on the important issue of "how to look at the economic situation" in the new era, which provided a scientific basis for "how to do economic work" in the new era, further deepened our party’s understanding of the laws of China’s economic development, and was an important part of the Supreme Leader’s economic thought. We should thoroughly study and understand the spirit of these important expositions, especially the positions, viewpoints and methods that run through them, further unify our thinking, strengthen our confidence, work hard, consolidate and enhance the economic recovery, and strive to turn the grand blueprint of Chinese modernization into a beautiful reality step by step.

  First, judge the orientation and changes of China’s economy from the historical, realistic and future trends, and deeply understand the new features and requirements brought about by the development and changes of the main contradictions in our society.

  A correct understanding of the historical position and development stage of the cause of the party and the people is the fundamental basis for our party to clarify the central task of the stage and formulate the line, principles and policies. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has profoundly analyzed the new historical conditions for China’s development, made a major judgment that the main contradictions in our society have changed, emphasized that Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, and China’s economic development has also entered a new era. Its basic feature is that it has changed from a high-speed growth stage to a high-quality development stage, which has clearly defined the historical position and stage characteristics of China’s economic development, and provided a fundamental basis for us to correctly analyze the economic situation and formulate economic policies.

  In the new stage, the main feature of the change of economic situation is that the economy has changed from high-speed growth to medium-high-speed growth. Since the reform and opening up, China’s economy has maintained a double-digit or nearly double-digit high-speed growth for a long time, creating a miracle of sustained and rapid growth, from 1979— In 2012, the average annual economic growth rate of China reached 9.9%. After entering a new stage, the growth rate dropped significantly, from 2013— In 2022, the average annual growth rate of China’s economy is 6.2%, and the average annual growth rate of anti-epidemic three years is 4.5%. What caused the obvious change of economic growth rate? There are various reasons, and it is certain that this change is trend rather than periodicity. This trend change reflects the changes of the main social contradictions, the development stages, development environment and development conditions, and the great logic of China’s economic development. On the one hand, after more than 30 years of high-speed growth, China’s economy is facing a series of new problems, such as rising labor costs, reaching a bottleneck in the carrying capacity of resources and environment, prominent problems of poor economic cycle, and slowing down the growth of international market demand, which requires us to change the extensive development mode and maintain a reasonable economic growth rate in order to achieve sustainable economic development. If the stimulus policy is only implemented for short-term economic growth, it will inevitably overdraw future growth. On the other hand, economic development is a spiral process, and when the quantity accumulates to a certain stage, it must turn to qualitative improvement. With the changes of major social contradictions in our country, the contradictions and problems in development are mainly reflected in the quality of development.This requires us to pay more attention to the quality and efficiency of development, speed up the transformation of development mode, adjust the economic structure, strive to improve the quality and efficiency of development, better meet the people’s growing needs for a better life, and promote China’s transformation from an economic power to an economic power.

 The scenery project of 1 million kilowatts of scenery hydrogen storage in Fengning, Chengde, Hebei Province is a large-scale clean energy base planned by the state in the 14 th Five-Year Plan — — The landmark project of clean energy base in northern Hebei. After the completion of the project, it is estimated that 1.8 billion kWh of green electricity can be produced each year, and carbon dioxide emissions will be reduced by about 1.4 million tons. The picture shows that on January 12, 2024, the workers of this project are installing fan hub accessories. Xinhua News Agency issued Wang Liqun/photo

  It can be seen that the change of economic growth rate is an inevitable reflection of the stage characteristics of China’s economic development, and it should be understood objectively and rationally, and based on this, policies should be formulated correctly. As General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out, "If the speed of economic development is not higher, the situation will be ‘ Very good ’ It’s not that if the economic development slows down a little, the situation will be ‘ Very bad ’ " ; "We should adhere to the correct view of political achievements, not simply talk about heroes by the growth rate of GDP, and not be influenced by the fluctuation of short-term economic indicators"; "Based on improving quality and efficiency, we will promote sustained and healthy economic development, pursue a real and moisture-free GDP, and pursue effective, quality and sustainable economic development". Lenin once pointed out that when analyzing the situation, Marxists should not proceed from the possibility, but from reality. In analyzing the economic situation, we should also proceed from reality, not from subjective wishes.

  The key to correctly understand the stage characteristics of economic development and the changes of its situation is to grasp the main contradictions. At different stages of economic development, the main contradictions of economic development are also different. The principal contradiction in our society has been transformed into the contradiction between the people’s growing need for a better life and the unbalanced development. In line with this, the principal contradiction in China’s economic development at this stage has been transformed into a structural problem, and there are aggregate, cyclical and institutional factors, which are intertwined and quite complicated. To correctly analyze the economic situation, we must firmly grasp the basic characteristics of the changes in major social contradictions and the fact that China’s economic development has entered a stage of high-quality development, focus on solving the problems of insufficient development imbalance, quality and efficiency of development, and make a correct judgment. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that "high-quality development is the development that can well meet the people’s growing needs for a better life, is the development that embodies the new development concept, is the development that innovation becomes the first driving force, coordination becomes the endogenous feature, green becomes the universal form, opening up becomes the only way, and sharing becomes the fundamental purpose", "that is, from ‘ Is there ’ Turn ‘ Ok ’ " . That is to say, in the new stage, judging whether the economy is good or not depends not only on the total volume and speed, but also on whether the development momentum is strong and the economic structure is reasonable.See whether the driving force for innovation is stronger, whether the development is more coordinated, whether the green background is thicker, whether the level of openness is higher, and whether the people are happier and healthier. In the final analysis, we must adhere to high-quality development as the last word in the new era, implement the new development concept completely, accurately and comprehensively, and promote the effective improvement of quality and reasonable growth of quantity in the economy. It should be noted that behind the change of economic growth rate, after the great changes since the new era, the quality of China’s economic development has been greatly improved, and it has embarked on a road of higher quality, more efficient, fairer, more sustainable and safer development. The long-term trend of high-quality development is irreversible, which is a basic point that must be firmly grasped in correctly analyzing the current economic situation.

  2. Insist on analyzing the economic situation from a comprehensive, dialectical and long-term perspective. The fundamentals of China’s long-term economic improvement have not changed and will not change.

  It is advisable to be open-minded when the scenery is long. To scientifically analyze and judge the economic situation, in the final analysis, we should stick to the basic stand, viewpoint and method of Marxism, look at the essence through the phenomenon, look at the long term through the short term, grasp the economic law, and see clearly the inevitable trend of economic development determined by the objective economic law; It is to insist on accurately grasping the general trend of development with a comprehensive, dialectical and long-term vision, not confined to temporary fluctuations, nor to temporary gains and losses, and always maintain a firm strategic strength.

  So, what conclusions can we draw from a comprehensive, dialectical and long-term view of China’s economy? This is what General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly emphasized. The basic characteristics of China’s economic potential, strong resilience, large room for maneuver and many policy tools have not changed, and the long-term positive fundamentals have not changed and will not change. Facts are the best proof. Entering a new era, based on the miracle of rapid economic development created since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening up, China’s GDP has jumped from 54 trillion yuan in 2012 to 120.5 trillion yuan in 2022, more than doubling; The per capita GDP rose from $6,300 to $12,700, ranking firmly among the middle-income countries. In terms of growth rate, whether it is 2013— The average annual growth rate of more than 6% in 2022, or the average annual growth rate of 4.5% in the three years of anti-epidemic, is much higher than the world average in the same period, ranking among the major economies in the world. The year 2023 is a year of economic recovery and development after the transition of epidemic prevention and control in COVID-19 for three years. In the case of the continuous downturn of the world economy, China’s economy has generally rebounded, with the annual GDP exceeding 126 trillion yuan and the economic growth of 5.2%, which contributed one third of the global growth and remained the biggest engine of world economic growth. In short, the horizontal ratio, China’s economic growth rate in the world’s major economies to maintain a leading; Vertically, at present, the main indicators of China’s economic and social development have improved significantly, and the economy has continued to grow steadily and reached a new level. China’s economy has strengthened its physique and bones in the storm.This is an important manifestation of China’s economy entering a high-quality development stage.

  Furthermore, the "good" economy of China is not only manifested in quantity, but also in quality. For example, in the economic structure, the proportion of added value of high-tech manufacturing industry in the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size has been increasing, from 9.4% in 2012 to 15.5% in 2022. In terms of innovation capability, the report "Global Innovation Index 2023" shows that China ranks 12th, is the only middle-income economy among the top 30, and has entered the ranks of innovative countries. In terms of coordinated development, the proportion of GDP in the central and western regions in the whole country increased from 21.3% and 19.6% in 2012 to 22.1% and 21.4% in 2022, and the income gap between urban and rural residents continued to narrow. In terms of green development, China has supported more than 6% economic growth with an average annual energy consumption growth rate of 3% in the past 10 years, which is one of the countries with the fastest reduction in energy consumption intensity in the world. In terms of opening up and development, China has become the main trading partner of more than 140 countries and regions, with the total import and export volume ranking first in the world for many years in a row, attracting foreign investment and foreign investment ranking first in the world. In terms of shared development, 2012— In 2023, the per capita disposable income of urban and rural residents will increase from 16,500 yuan to 39,200 yuan, which is basically in step with economic growth. It can be said that the characteristics of China’s high-quality development stage are becoming more and more obvious, the driving force of high-quality development is becoming stronger and the pace of high-quality development is becoming more and more stable. In the face of the historic achievements of China’s economic development, the so-called "China’s theory of economic peaking and China’s theory of economic collapse have no factual basis and can only be broken.

 China insists on giving priority to restoring and expanding consumption, and has successively issued a series of policies to promote consumption. The consumer market has recovered and the basic role of consumption has become more significant.

  Why is the basic trend of China’s long-term economic improvement unchanged? This is because China’s economic development has many favorable conditions and strong advantages, and has a solid foundation to support the long-term improvement of the economy. These strong advantages and solid foundations fundamentally reflect the objective laws of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s economic development. In this regard, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made a systematic exposition from many aspects. In an interview in June 2019, the General Secretary profoundly pointed out that China’s stable, healthy and sustainable economic development has sufficient supporting conditions from four aspects: resource potential, endogenous power, development vitality and regulatory capacity. During the two sessions of the National People’s Congress in 2022, the General Secretary emphasized that China’s development still has many strategic advantages: strong leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), obvious advantages of Socialism with Chinese characteristics system, solid foundation for sustained and rapid development, long-term stable social environment and spiritual strength of self-confidence. In a written speech at the APEC CEO Summit in November, 2023, General Secretary pointed out that China has the institutional advantages of a socialist market economy, the demand advantages of a super-large-scale market, the supply advantages of a complete industrial system, and the talent advantages of a large number of high-quality workers and entrepreneurs, and its economic development has strong endogenous motivation, resilience and potential. It is China’s unique comprehensive advantages, such as political advantages, institutional advantages, popular support advantages, basic advantages, development advantages, demand advantages, supply advantages, talent advantages and opportunity advantages, that complement each other, superimpose and amplify, and promote China’s economic development and create great achievements that attract worldwide attention.We often say that the road is tortuous and the future is bright. The road is tortuous because there are all kinds of complicated and changeable situations; The future is bright because there is an unchanging general trend and logic behind the complicated and changeable situation. Standing at a new starting point, these favorable conditions and advantages will surely promote China’s economy to innovate miracles on the road of high-quality development with strong development potential and potential energy, which is the confidence and confidence of China’s long-term economic improvement.

  Three, based on the domestic, look at the world, and deeply understand the impact of the complicated international situation on China.

  Today’s China is a China closely connected with the world. Under the background of deepening economic globalization, expanding China’s opening to the outside world and intensifying international competition, to correctly understand China’s economic situation, we must establish an international perspective, make overall plans for both domestic and international situations, put economic development under the global political and economic background, deeply analyze changes in external environment, and grasp the general trend of development in the interaction between China and the world.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out, "At present, the great changes in the world that have never happened in a hundred years are accelerating, and the world has entered a new period of turbulent change." "The external environment for China’s development has changed dramatically, and uncertainties and unpredictable factors have increased significantly." The profound changes in the external environment have a profound impact on China’s economic development: First, the development gap is widening, multiple crises of food, energy and debt are simultaneously emerging, the recovery of the world economy is difficult, and the momentum of economic growth is insufficient. Second, economic globalization has encountered counter-current, cold war mentality, hegemonism, unilateralism and protectionism have risen, and the stability of the world industrial chain supply chain has been affected. Third, geopolitical turmoil, frequent local conflicts, regional security hot issues one after another, global problems intensified, and the international economic, scientific, technological, cultural, security, political and other patterns are undergoing profound adjustments. This means that China will face more external environment against the wind and water, and seek development in a more unstable and uncertain world, which is an important factor that we must consider when judging the economic situation. For example, weak global economic growth and shrinking external demand have impacted China’s export trade; For example, individual countries generalize national security, politicize and weaponize economic, trade, scientific and technological exchanges, build "small courtyards and high walls", and encourage "decoupling and breaking chains", which affects China’s participation in the global division of labor and expansion of the global market; For example, the global industrial chain supply chain has a trend of localization and regionalization.It may weaken China’s position in the global industrial chain supply chain. In the face of these new challenges, we must strengthen our sense of hardship, adhere to the bottom line thinking and extreme thinking, and ensure that we can withstand the major tests of high winds, high waves and even stormy waves.

  A correct understanding of the current economic situation requires a spirit of self-confidence and self-reliance. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that China’s economy is a sea, not a small pond; Storms can overturn small ponds, but not the sea. The increasingly severe and complicated external environment and obviously increased risk challenges have not changed the strong resilience and development momentum of China’s economy, nor reduced its position and contribution in the world economy; On the contrary, in the rapidly changing world and the deep interaction between domestic and international situations, China’s economic competitiveness is further enhanced and its advantages are further highlighted. The proportion of China’s total economic output in the world economy rose from 11.3% in 2012 to over 18% in 2022, and its annual contribution rate to world economic growth exceeded 30%. China’s important position in the global industrial chain supply chain has been continuously enhanced, from 2012— In 2023, the added value of manufacturing industry increased from 22.5% to nearly 30% in the world, and the scale of manufacturing industry and the output of many industrial products ranked first in the world. China is the main source of investment for more and more countries, and has gradually grown into an important participant from a passive receiver and an active follower of international economic and trade rules; As the world’s largest exporter, it has provided a large number of inexpensive goods for all countries in the world. As General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out, "it depends on what China has achieved, but also on what China has contributed to the world". Facts have proved and will continue to prove that no matter in the past, present or future,China has always been an important promoter of global openness, a stable source of power for world economic growth, a vibrant market for countries to expand business opportunities and an active contributor to global governance reform.

  Four, adhere to the "two-point theory", not only see the difficulties and challenges, but also see the advantages and opportunities, and strive to cultivate new opportunities in the crisis and open up new opportunities in the changing situation.

  To scientifically analyze the economic situation, we must have a dialectical view and look at the problem in two ways, not only to see the unfavorable side, but also to see the difficulties and challenges; We should also see the advantages, advantages and opportunities in the domestic and international situation.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the economic situation at home and abroad has been extremely complicated. Many situations have not been encountered since the reform and opening up, and many difficulties and challenges have not been encountered before. Focusing on the changed development environment and conditions, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core faced the difficulties and challenges faced by China’s economic development and made a series of important judgments: it pointed out that the contradiction between overcapacity and upgrading of demand structure in China was prominent, the endogenous motivation of economic growth was insufficient, and the problems of imbalance, uncoordinated and unsustainable remained outstanding; It is pointed out that China’s structural, institutional and cyclical problems are intertwined, the influence of "three-phase superposition" continues to deepen, and the sources and risk points of global turmoil have increased significantly; It is pointed out that China’s economic development is facing triple pressures of demand contraction, supply shock and expected weakening, and the external environment is becoming more complicated, severe and uncertain. The Central Economic Work Conference held at the end of 2023 emphasized that it is necessary to overcome some difficulties and challenges to further promote the economic recovery, mainly due to insufficient effective demand, overcapacity in some industries, weak social expectations, and still many potential risks. The domestic big cycle is blocked, and the complexity, severity and uncertainty of the external environment are rising. What should we think about these emerging problems and difficulties? The general secretary of the supreme leader’s answer is firm and powerful. "We can neither hide the difficulties and challenges, resistance and variables, nor turn a blind eye, nor panic and lose our footing." "The more difficult it is, the more we must strengthen our confidence.The more calm and brave you are, "the key to preventing and resolving all kinds of hidden dangers and actively responding to the impact challenges brought about by changes in the external environment is to do your own thing well." These important expositions of the General Secretary clearly express the heroic spirit of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people who dare to struggle and win, and the more difficult and dangerous they are, the more forward they will be.

  Adhering to the bottom line thinking is not passive inaction, but on the basis of respecting objective laws, giving full play to subjective initiative, making the worst plans and striving for the best results. This requires us to overcome difficulties, make use of the situation, accurately grasp the opportunities and challenges faced by China’s development, and win the strategic initiative. "Misfortune depends on happiness, and happiness depends on misfortune." Opportunities and challenges coexist, and overcoming the crisis is the opportunity, which is an eternal dialectical principle. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader profoundly pointed out that crises coexist, crises are organic, crises can turn around, opportunities are more strategic and plastic, challenges are more complex and overall, challenges are unprecedented, and opportunities are unprecedented if we deal with them well. It should be noted that despite the profound and complex changes at home and abroad, China’s development still faces new strategic opportunities, such as those brought about by the new round of scientific and technological revolution and the in-depth development of industrial transformation, those brought about by accelerating the optimization and upgrading of economic structure, those brought about by enhancing the ability of scientific and technological innovation, those brought about by deepening reform and opening up, those brought about by accelerating green development, those brought about by promoting the coordinated development of urban and rural areas, those brought about by the optimization and upgrading of residents’ consumption, and those brought about by participating in the reform of the global economic governance system. We should not only enhance our awareness of risks, but also enhance our awareness of opportunities, adhere to problem orientation, maintain strategic strength, accurately recognize changes, respond scientifically, take the initiative to seek changes, turn pressure into motivation, and turn challenges into opportunities.Firmly grasp the initiative of development strategy, strive to cultivate new machines in the crisis and open up new opportunities in the changing situation.

  5. Enhance confidence and confidence, do a solid job in economic work, and push China’s economic ship forward through the waves.

  Comrade Deng Xiaoping pointed out that "everything in the world is done, and there is no Marxism at all". The scientific answer to the question "What do you think of the economic situation?" aims at solving the problem of "How to do economic work?" On the basis of scientific analysis and judgment of the economic situation, we can make scientific economic decisions and implement effective policy measures to promote sustained and healthy economic development. In the new journey, to fully stimulate the accumulated potential of China’s economic development, turn the advantages of agglomeration into the victory of development, and then continue the new glory of China’s economy, it is basically necessary to carry forward the historical initiative, work hard and move forward bravely. We should closely focus on the biggest politics of promoting Chinese modernization, focus on the central task of economic construction and the primary task of high-quality development, strengthen our confidence, forge ahead, and do a good job in economic work with a spirit of hard work and a sense of responsibility of "always worrying".

  With the guidance of Marxist scientific theory, it is fundamental for us to grasp the historical initiative. The supreme leader’s economic thought insists on combining the basic principles of Marxism with the concrete reality of China and the excellent traditional Chinese culture, scientifically answering the major theoretical and practical questions about how to look at the economic situation and how to do economic work, which embodies our party’s profound insight into the law of economic development, especially the law of socialist economic construction, and is a powerful ideological weapon to guide China’s high-quality economic development, scientifically respond to major risks and challenges, and comprehensively build a socialist modern country. Since the new era, China’s economic development has achieved historic achievements and undergone historic changes. The most fundamental reason lies in the leadership of the Supreme Leader General Secretary and the scientific guidance of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, especially the Supreme Leader’s economic thought, which fully proves that "two establishment" is the greatest certainty, the greatest confidence and the greatest guarantee for us to overcome all difficulties and obstacles and deal with all uncertainties. We should profoundly understand the decisive significance of the "Two Establishments", deeply grasp the regularity of doing a good job in economic work in the new era, persistently arm our minds, guide practice and promote work with the Party’s scientific theory, and constantly open up a new situation in economic work in the new era.

  The party’s centralized and unified leadership over economic work is the fundamental guarantee for the sustained and healthy development of the socialist economy. Whether we can control the world’s second largest economy and maintain sustained and healthy economic and social development fundamentally depends on whether the party plays a leading role in economic and social development. We must uphold and strengthen the overall leadership of the Party, constantly improve the system and mechanism of the Party’s leadership in economic work, and improve the Party’s ability and level of leadership in economic work. It is necessary to profoundly understand the scientific judgment of the CPC Central Committee on the economic situation, thoroughly implement the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee on economic work, faithfully implement them, resolutely implement them, seek truth and be pragmatic, dare to do good deeds, ensure that all major decision-making arrangements are implemented and effective, and strive to achieve various goals and tasks of economic and social development.

  He who observes the situation is wise, and he who controls the situation wins. Facing the grim and complicated situation, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country will work with one heart and one mind, which will surely push China’s economic ship forward and create a new miracle of comprehensively promoting the construction of a strong country and national rejuvenation with Chinese modernization.
