Hand, foot and mouth disease enters a high incidence period. Experts suggest paying attention to vaccination.

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, May 24 (Reporter Fan Xi) With the coming of summer and the rising temperature, hand, foot and mouth disease has entered a high incidence period. Experts say that for hand, foot and mouth disease, the best way to protect susceptible people is to vaccinate and take precautions.

  Ceng Guang, chief epidemiologist of China CDC, said that summer and autumn are the key periods for vaccination. If the vaccination of hand, foot and mouth disease is neglected, the number of severe hand, foot and mouth disease cases may be significantly higher than the current level.

  According to statistics, among the reported cases of national legal infectious diseases in 2018, hand, foot and mouth disease ranked first with 2.376 million cases. Ceng Guang said that the transmission coefficient of hand, foot and mouth disease is 4.2 to 6.5, which is three times that of Covid-19.

  Hu Bing, deputy director of the Department of Infectious Diseases of the National Children’s Medical Center and Beijing Children’s Hospital, said that the best way to protect susceptible people is to vaccinate, especially for children aged 6 months to 3 years. In addition, we should wash our hands frequently, eat cooked food, drink clean water, strengthen exercise, open windows for ventilation, and go to crowded places less. The incidence of hand, foot and mouth disease is large, and there is still no specific treatment. The most effective response is to prevent it.

Global news: U.S. stocks rebound, chip stocks outperform the broader market, and Bank of America is optimistic about Apple’s rise over 3%.

  On Thursday (January 19th), EST, driven by the general increase of technology stocks, the three major US stock indexes collectively closed up, with the Nasdaq rising by more than 1% to smooth out the decline during the year, and the Nasdaq 100 index reached a record high.

  At the close, the Dow rose 201.94 points, or 0.54%, to 37,468.61 points. The Nasdaq rose 200.03 points, or 1.35%, to 15,055.65 points. The S&P 500 rose slightly by 41.73 points, or 0.88%, to 4,780.94 points.

  The eye-catching performance of technology stocks overnight was mainly driven by two news sources. First, the performance of the chip foundry giant TSMC Q4 exceeded expectations, and its share price also rose by nearly 10%. Goldman Sachs analysts said on Thursday that TSMC management believes that manufacturing AI chips may account for more than 10% of its revenue within five years, which will have a positive impact on NVIDIA and AMD. Sure enough, NVIDIA and AMD’s share prices closed at record highs.

  Some analysts said that technology stocks were boosted by TSMC’s latest performance today, and the company has many positive views on the forward-looking guidance of semiconductors and AI.

  On the other hand, Apple, which has been hit by the headwind recently, has been favored by Bank of America against the market. It upgraded Apple’s stock rating to buy, and predicted that Apple’s share price will rise by more than 20% in the next 12 months. This has also boosted the confidence of the market to a certain extent. After all, the former "stock king" was an important heavyweight in Nasdaq.

  On the macro level, the US Senate passed the short-term expenditure bill of the federal government, and about 20% of the government funds due are expected to "renew their lives" in the short term. Although this is nothing new, at least a big stone hanging above the market has landed.

  In addition, Bostic, chairman of the Atlanta Federal Reserve and the voting committee of the Federal Reserve this year, said that he now thinks that the time to cut interest rates is the third quarter of this year. However, if inflation slows down "much faster than he expected", then he will be open to taking action earlier.

  It is worth mentioning that the number of people applying for unemployment benefits in the United States reached 187,000 in the first week of January 13, the lowest since the week of September 24, 2022, indicating that the US job market is full of resilience. After the data was released, the yield of US bonds continued to rise, and the yield of 10-year US bonds remained above 4.1%, and finally closed at 4.142%. The yield of two-year US bonds, which is more sensitive to the Fed’s policy interest rate, closed at 4.354%.

  Us Senate passes short-term spending bill

  The short-term spending bill passed by the Senate on Thursday extended the federal government’s spending funds to March. If it fails to pass, including funds from the Ministry of Communications, some veterans’ assistance and food and drug safety projects, about 20% of government funds will expire after 0: 00 am on the 20th. The short-term spending bill has been submitted to the House of Representatives, which is expected to vote later on Thursday.

  What is Trump’s "market significance"? Goldman Sachs: US dollar and US bond yields rise

  Goldman Sachs believes that if the Republican Party wins and sweeps the Senate and the House of Representatives, then the US market may experience a strong dollar, rising inflation, rising US Treasury yields and a steep yield curve in the future, which will increase the risk of large fluctuations in energy prices.

  Federal Reserve Voting Committee: The first rate cut is most likely in the third quarter. If inflation accelerates, we are open to taking action earlier.

  Bostic, president of Atlanta Federal Reserve, said that he wanted to see more evidence of "disinflation" before the Fed cut interest rates, and reiterated that he now thought that the time to cut interest rates was the third quarter of this year. Bostic added that if inflation slows down "much faster than he expected", he would be open to taking action earlier. However, he also reiterated that he is still looking for more evidence to prove that "we are on the track to 2%".

  Minutes of ECB meeting: Need to remain vigilant and patient.

  High interest rates will continue for some time, and the fear of a "hard landing" in the economy will ease. Some officials of the European Central Bank are worried that premature relaxation may affect anti-inflation efforts, so they prefer to maintain high interest rates for a while.

  IEA: IEA:2024, the oil market was "sufficiently supplied"

  IEA predicts that oil supply outside OPEC+ will grow faster than global demand, and inventories may increase from the second quarter to the end of the year. This conclusion is completely contrary to the report released by OPEC yesterday. But at the same time, IEA, like OPEC monthly report, also expects the global oil demand to grow strongly. In the monthly report, IEA will increase the expected increase of oil demand in 2024 by 180,000 barrels per day.

Four-valent vaccine is recommended for influenza prevention this year: it can prevent four virus strains.

  Many people still remember the fierce flu and vaccine shortage last year. What is the situation this year?

  Yesterday, the reporter learned from the "Symposium on Influenza Prevention and Control Countermeasures under the New Situation" held by Guangdong Preventive Medicine Association that the "tailing" effect of influenza in southern China is obvious this year. In order to prepare for the winter and spring influenza, the state is stepping up the batch issuance of influenza vaccines.

  The World Health Organization (WHO) has finally determined and announced the composition of influenza vaccine in the northern hemisphere influenza season from 2019 to 2020, and it is recommended to use tetravalent influenza vaccine. China’s self-produced tetravalent vaccine has doubled its output this year, and 11 million vaccines are being issued in batches. Guangdong is on the list of the first shipments and is expected to arrive at the end of August and early September at the earliest.

  Text/Guangzhou Daily All-Media Reporter He Xuehua Correspondent Yin Dongmei and liuyong

  Tetravalent vaccine: especially protecting the elderly and children.

  To prevent influenza, we need to carry out it according to what influenza virus is prevalent. Therefore, every year, the world pays attention to the components of the influenza vaccine strain of the World Health Organization, which means that global experts predict the epidemic type of the virus.

  At the seminar, Dr. Zheng Jiandong from China Center for Disease Control and Prevention introduced that the World Health Organization officially released the recommended components of seasonal influenza vaccine in the northern hemisphere in 2019-2020 on March 21st this year, and gave priority to the components of tetravalent influenza vaccine, which means that tetravalent influenza vaccine will become the first choice for preventing influenza virus in the northern hemisphere in the future, including China. This northern hemisphere vaccine formula contains H1N1, H3N2, Victoria strain B (BV) and Yamagata strain B (BY).

  Because of trivalent vaccine in 2018, it failed to play a very good role in protecting Yamagata(BY (by) virus that was popular in that year, just as the formula of traditional Chinese medicine lacked blindly important components, and the immune effect was not satisfactory. The situation in recent years shows that it is imperative to capture the two lineages of influenza B in one fell swoop and prepare them in the influenza vaccine formula. The tetravalent vaccine has become the WHO’s priority recommendation for influenza vaccine in the northern hemisphere, which is the latest major change, including Yamagata(BY (by) component.

  Dr. Zheng Jiandong said: "I will choose the tetravalent influenza vaccine for vaccination this year." Because of one more protection, the BY flu virus that can’t be prevented is quite powerful without new components.

  Influenza B virus is mainly a local outbreak, and tends to infect specific groups, such as children and the elderly with poor immunity, so it is easy to cause complications in addition to typical infection symptoms. The related research in China from 2003 to 2008 suggested that the mortality rate during the period when influenza B virus was mainly prevalent exceeded that during the period when H3N2 was mainly prevalent.

  It is not difficult to understand the truth that "a simple cold can still kill people", and it is easier to empathize with Middle-aged Beijing under the Influenza. It is precisely because of this that the immune expectation of tetravalent influenza vaccine can be said to protect people with poor immunity, especially the elderly and children.

  Vaccine supply: Guangdong is included in the first batch of 8 provinces and cities delivery list.

  Last year, the supply of influenza vaccine was tight in the whole country, and "one vaccine is hard to find" is still fresh in people’s memory.

  Dr. Zheng Jiandong from China Center for Disease Control and Prevention pointed out that this year, China’s influenza vaccine immunization program still followed the recommendation of WHO. Different from last year, the supply of trivalent and tetravalent vaccines should no longer be in short supply. "Last year, some enterprises stopped producing influenza vaccines because of insufficient production capacity."

  Due to the obvious "tail effect" of influenza in southern China this year, the reporting rate has been maintained near the baseline of 5%. In order to prepare for the winter and spring influenza, the state is stepping up the batch issuance of influenza vaccines.

  Tetravalent influenza vaccine is recommended as the first choice to prevent influenza virus this year. Are manufacturers ready? The reporter was informed that Hualan tetravalent influenza vaccine is a tetravalent vaccine independently produced in China, and it is also the only influenza vaccine in China that has passed the pre-certification of the World Health Organization, which also means that the vaccine has obtained a "passport" for exporting to Europe, America and other countries and regions.

  According to the person in charge of Pan in South China, the production of tetravalent influenza vaccine has doubled this year, and it is expected to reach 11 million people. Although WHO’s component formula came out late, the first batch of 560,000 people has been approved and issued. Guangdong is included in the first batch of delivery lists of 8 provinces and cities, and it is expected to arrive at the earliest end of August and early September.

  After the vaccine is used, antibodies are produced 15 days later, and the immune protection can be maintained for at least one year.

  Suitable vaccines:

  Six high-risk groups

  Influenza is highly contagious, spreads quickly and is easily confused with the common cold. About 65 million to 190 million people are infected with influenza every year in China. "Unfortunately, the influenza vaccination rate in China is only about 2%." Dr. Zheng Jiandong pointed out that six high-risk groups, including medical staff, students, infants, the elderly, pregnant women and patients with chronic diseases, are the key groups for influenza vaccination.

  The benefit-cost ratio of influenza vaccination is 6.48:1, which is even higher for the elderly aged 65 and above. Previous monitoring results indicate that the risk of influenza activity in winter in Guangdong province is increasing, and the risk of outbreak in kindergartens, schools, nursing homes, prisons, detention centers and other collective units is increasing. It is recommended that the public be vaccinated as soon as possible.

  Be careful with vaccines:

  Egg allergy

  Many citizens have consulted reporters, and heard that if there are allergic eggs, it is not appropriate to get the flu vaccine. Is it the same with tetravalent? In this regard, disease control experts said that in China Pharmacopoeia and vaccine instructions, people who are allergic to eggs are classified as "cautious" rather than "banned" tetravalent influenza vaccine, and even "cautious" has been cancelled in the United States. In fact, the residual content of egg ingredients in tetravalent vaccine is very low. However, whether or not to vaccinate depends on personal wishes.

  Many expectant mothers also want to be vaccinated with tetravalent influenza vaccine. However, pregnant women are listed as "forbidden" in China Pharmacopoeia and vaccine instructions. Even though clinical results abroad, including Europe, the United States and East Asia, show that 987 pregnant women have good immunogenicity and safety after using tetravalent vaccine, it is still "forbidden" in China and is not recommended.

Electronic firecrackers become "New Year’s goods": they are declared "harmless" and some of them are "three noes" products.

As a traditional custom of the Spring Festival, setting off firecrackers is as popular as sticking Spring Festival couplets. If you don’t listen to a few firecrackers during the New Year, you always feel that there is no flavor of the year. However, setting off fireworks and firecrackers has many hazards to personal safety and ecological environment. After the ban, in order to increase the flavor of the year, recyclable electronic firecrackers came into being, and many e-commerce platforms began to recommend this kind of "New Year goods". The reporter’s investigation found that although this kind of "New Year’s goods" earned enough attention, it also concealed mystery.

Shopping malls hang up recycling to add flavor to the year.

On February 14th, in Yuehui Shopping Mall in Shibei District, the reporter saw that six strings of firecrackers had been hung at the door, which was full of Chinese New Year’s atmosphere. However, when you look closely, you can see that there is a speaker under the top word "Fu", which will play realistic firecrackers after being turned on. This is the most common electronic firecrackers.

"Now Qingdao is forbidden to whip, and putting this in the New Year can be lively and environmentally friendly." Yuehui staff revealed to reporters that these firecrackers have been used since last year. "Anyway, they are battery-powered and can be recycled."

Electronic firecrackers are hung at the entrance of Yuehui Shopping Mall. All the pictures in this article are peninsula network.

Firecrackers are a symbol of good fortune. During festivals, the sound of firecrackers is deafening, sparks are flying and everyone’s heart is surging. After the implementation of the ban on burning in Qingdao on January 1, 2020, there are no more sales points for fireworks and firecrackers in the urban area. For occasions where there is demand, electronic firecrackers can meet it.

There are three kinds of electronic firecrackers commonly seen in the market. One is the lightning simulation electronic firecrackers, which has vivid sound, flash, no gunpowder, no pollution and can be reused. This one is the most common. Second, recording firecrackers, playing firecrackers recorded in the chip through audio decoding; The third is the electronic firecracker, which uses the mixed fuel of gas and oxygen, making a loud noise, just like gunpowder firecrackers, but there are potential safety hazards when the mixed gas is ignited. For consumers, the first two are safe, environmentally friendly and practical.

The reporter searched for electronic firecrackers on Taobao platform and found that the main selling point of almost all merchants is "loud", such as "super loud noise" and "realistic sound", and the second selling point mentioned is "recyclable". The biggest difference between electronic firecrackers and traditional firecrackers is that they are not disposable products, but can be used repeatedly with electricity. For some businesses, festivals, opening and housewarming can be used to create lively scenes.

E-commerce sales are hot, "safety and environmental protection" becomes a selling point.

At present, electronic firecrackers are mainly sold on e-commerce platforms. In short video platforms such as Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker, many merchants will take short videos or bring goods live. "Friends will celebrate the New Year soon. Are your firecrackers ready? There is no shooting in the Spring Festival, and there is no taste in the New Year. " In the live broadcast room of Tik Tok platform, in the room where electronic firecrackers and cardboard boxes were piled up, a seller tried his best to show his products, swinging up and down with the festive electronic firecrackers.

During the Spring Festival, many sellers make money online through short videos. The seller claims that this product is "safe and environmentally friendly" and "tasteful". In order to prove its security, many videos released by sellers are shot indoors. The reporter saw on the Tik Tok platform that nearly half of the 137 videos released by a seller with 150,000 fans were showing electronic firecrackers.

A merchant on the network platform is displaying electronic firecrackers.

Press the switch, the colored lights will flash, accompanied by crackling firecrackers. It seems that the carefree and jubilant Spring Festival will come back when I was a child.

Online sales are booming, but in the offline market, electronic firecrackers are rare. The reporter observed in some supermarkets in the island city that most of the Spring Festival decorative goods are lantern pendants and blessing stickers, and there are no electronic firecrackers. In the wholesale market, we can see that some merchants sell simulated electronic firecrackers, and their propaganda words are mostly "environmental protection", "safety" and "reuse".

There are no electronic firecrackers in the Spring Festival decorative goods area of a large supermarket in Shibei District.

Remediation of safety hazards of cold fireworks can not be ignored

Most of the e-commerce platforms promote simulated firecrackers that make sounds, but many sellers sell another kind of electronic firecrackers that receive cold light fireworks.

It is understood that an electronic firecracker that can emit cold light fireworks appears on the market at present, and it is also labeled as "safe and environmentally friendly" and "not restricted by prohibition". The cold light fireworks placed by electronic firecrackers do not need an open flame to ignite, just turn on the power supply. When electrified, the current increases and the temperature rises rapidly, thus igniting the fireworks. The internal ignition point of cold light fireworks is more than 600 degrees Celsius, while the external ignition point is only 50 to 60 degrees Celsius, which is easy to give people an illusion. You can touch it with your hands. In fact, your hands will be burned after more than two seconds. And the cold light fireworks sold are mostly "three no" products, and there are also hidden risks in transportation and storage.

Electronic firecrackers seem harmless, but are they really safe?

On February 14th, the State Council Security Committee Office and Emergency Management Department issued a message to bring cold light fireworks into the management of fireworks and firecrackers, and centralized clean-up and rectification of illegal online sales.

In view of the rise of cold light fireworks, the the State Council Safety Committee Office and the Emergency Management Department emphasized that although the flame temperature of cold light fireworks is low and there is less smoke, the temperature of the jet is still as high as 700-800℃, which can burn people and ignite articles. As fireworks, its basic attributes of inflammable and explosive dangerous goods have not changed. When producing, managing, storing and transporting cold light fireworks, we must still strictly abide by the provisions on the safety management of fireworks and firecrackers, and must obtain corresponding safety licenses. It is strictly forbidden to produce and sell in any form in disguise. All localities should incorporate luminescent fireworks into the management of fireworks and firecrackers, strengthen safety supervision and strengthen law enforcement inspection, especially focus on cleaning up and rectifying illegal online sales of luminescent fireworks, and effectively eliminate regulatory blind spots. When setting off cold light fireworks, we should also take safety measures that are generally applicable to fireworks and firecrackers. It is strictly forbidden to set off fireworks indoors and in any place where fireworks and firecrackers are prohibited, so as to prevent fires and other accidents caused by incorrect discharge methods.

Electronic firecrackers can’t be sold as soon as they want, let alone released as soon as they want, and their safety can’t be ignored. According to firefighters, consumers buy cold fireworks from the Internet and put them at home. Once they are ignited by open flames and other conditions, the consequences are unimaginable. Therefore, consumers should be cautious about the selling point of "safety and environmental protection" advertised by businesses.

(The original title is"Electronic firecrackers are really" harmless "? The new year’s goods earn enough attention and also hide the mystery.)

Apple industry transformation problem: weak disaster resistance and insufficient planting scale

On August 28th, fruit farmers packed apples in Fangxiang Village, Yongxiang Town, Luochuan County, Shaanxi Province. Xinhua News Agency reporter Tao Mingshe

  Since the beginning of this year, the price of apples has continued to rise, which is due to natural disasters such as frost, which led to the reduction of production in the main apple producing areas. This reflects that the apple industry has a weak ability to resist natural disasters and market risks, and at the same time faces rising costs such as labor and land. A few days ago, the Economic Daily reporter walked into the main apple producing areas to learn about the problems encountered in the transformation of the apple industry.

  Since the beginning of this year, due to tight supply, the price of apples has been rising continuously. The average monthly retail price of first-class red Fuji apples in Shaanxi market was once close to 9 yuan per catty. Why is the supply of apples suddenly reduced? What are the challenges facing the development of Apple industry? The Economic Daily reporter recently came to Shaanxi, one of the main producing areas of apples, to find out the source.

  The ability to resist natural disasters needs to be strengthened.

  "At present, the total planting area of apples in China is about 38 million mu, and the output of Bohai Rim region and Loess Plateau region accounts for more than 85% of the total output of apples in China." Cha Yangliang, the stationmaster of Xianyang Horticulture Station in Shaanxi Province and the stationmaster of Xianyang Comprehensive Experimental Station of National Apple Industry System, told the reporter.

  More than 10 years ago, Shandong ranked first in the country with more than 9 million mu of apple planting area. In recent years, with the adjustment of planting area, the apple planting area in Shaanxi Province has developed rapidly, reaching 10 million mu at present. The output of apples in Gansu has also increased to be second only to Shaanxi and Shandong.

  With the transfer of planting area and the expansion of planting area, the influence of weather on apple planting has become more and more prominent. In the face of natural disasters such as frost, gale and hail, the defense ability of the existing technology is very limited. In April, 2018, Shaanxi apples suffered a frost that had not happened for many years during the flowering period, resulting in a large reduction in production, which became one of the main reasons for the sharp price increase of apples this year.

  According to reports, more than 20 years ago, the flowering period of apples in Xianyang, Shaanxi Province was mostly in mid-April, a little later than now, and the probability of encountering frost was small. However, with the change of environment and temperature, the flowering period tends to advance, which leads to the annual flowering period just encountering frost in recent years.

  "Traditional methods mainly rely on measures such as smoking and spraying water to alleviate the impact of frost, but last year, we encountered a longer and lower temperature frost, and these methods could not solve it." Cha Yangliang said that researchers are now studying delaying flowering to avoid frost, such as watering apples before they sprout in spring to delay germination, and then delaying flowering to avoid frost. However, this method needs to comprehensively consider the actual situation of water shortage in the Loess Plateau and the possible cost increase.

  Experts believe that there are multiple factors behind the transfer of apple’s main producing area to high altitude areas, and the shift from pursuing "high yield" to pursuing "high quality" is one of the core driving forces.

  At the same time, the pressure of planting structure transformation is increasing. Liquan County, Xianyang City, Shaanxi Province is a famous production base of high-quality apples in China and the largest fruit distribution center in northwest China, with an annual output of millions of tons of apples and an annual distribution of more than 3 million tons of fruits. Cui Haiyang, chief engineer of the Fruit Industry Bureau of Liquan County, told the reporter: "Early and middle ripe apples in Liquan County only account for 17.5% of the total apple area, forming ‘ Shortage of early maturity, insufficient middle maturity and excessive late maturity ’ The variety pattern of. The proportion of late-maturing varieties is too large, and the listing is concentrated, which makes the fruit sales pressure increase. Therefore, we are now focusing on accelerating the transformation of fruit structure. "

  Scale development should also reduce labor costs

  For a long time, insufficient planting scale is an important factor restricting the development of modern apple industry. Nowadays, in the northern counties of Xianyang City, Shaanxi Province, the trend of large planters and social capital developing large-scale planting through land transfer is becoming more and more obvious. It is understood that there are more than 20 enterprises with an apple planting scale of more than 500 mu in Xianyang; There are more than 100 large-scale farmers, cooperatives and enterprises.

  Zhang Zhaolong, head of production of Shaanxi Fruit Industry Group Liquan Co., Ltd., told reporters that the company’s planting base has transferred 1,000 mu of land, of which 800 mu is planted with apples, and the rest are planted with peaches and grapes. This year’s apple output is expected to reach about 500,000 Jin.

  The reporter walked in the planting base of Shaanxi Fruit Industry Group Liquan Co., Ltd. and found that there was a sharp contrast between the two sides of the road: on the one hand, there was an orchard planted on a large scale, with tall and straight fruit trees and plump apples; On the other side is the farmer’s own orchard, with sparse leaves and thin fruit. "Many young people have gone out to work, and there is a lack of manpower at home. The orchard is neglected and even abandoned." Zhang Zhaolong said.

  "Once young people go out to work, they rarely come back to grow apples. Why? Earn a lot outside, and it is not as hard as planting fruit trees, and the risk is still great. " A local villager told reporters.

  The advantages of large-scale planting are obvious, but it is followed by problems such as increased land transfer costs and shortage of manpower. "We have hired more than 40 people, and the per capita salary is about 3,000 yuan. The salary cost of employees will be more than 1.5 million yuan a year." Zhang Zhaolong said that the company is starting to build a new orchard, which can better realize mechanized operation. After completion, it is expected to reduce the labor cost by about 70%.

  Cha Yangliang said that at present, both apple planting techniques and management methods are developing in the direction of saving labor. For example, in the past, it was mostly artificial fruit thinning, but now it can greatly save labor by spraying flower thinning agent; The labor-intensive bagging technology of apples will gradually be replaced by bagging-free cultivation technology.

  Strengthen the industrial chain to resist market risks

  In addition to the challenges in production, the storage and sales of the Apple industry still need to strengthen the chain. Experts believe that at present, the storage of apples in cold storage accounts for a low proportion of production in China. If the storage capacity of cold storage can be further improved, the sales chain will be lengthened, the ability to cope with production risks and market fluctuations will be improved, the risk of unsalable sales will be reduced, and the interests of fruit farmers will be better safeguarded.

  Bai Pingjun, the person in charge of cold storage management of Shaanxi Qingfeng Modern Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. told the reporter, "Our cold storage scale is about 10,000 tons, and the storage cost is about 2 cents per catty. Last year, the fruit was greatly reduced by the disaster, and only 70% of the cold storage was used; This year’s fruit harvest is expected, and the reserves will definitely be even greater. "

  Now in Liquan, there are 105 modern cold storages like this, with a storage capacity of 350,000 tons, an annual supply period of 10 months, and an annual storage appreciation of over 100 million yuan. At the same time, Liquan has also built more than 200 fruit packaging bags, packing boxes and foam net factories, becoming the largest production base of fruit packaging materials in northwest China.

  "Although the Liquan apple industry has been developing steadily and the industrial chain has been continuously improved for many years, there are still some problems. For example, fruit enterprises generally have problems such as small scale of operation and weak processing value-added ability, and lack deep processing projects such as fruit vinegar, fruit wine and preserved fruit. " Cui Haiyang said that at present, we are fully implementing the cultivation project of new fruit business entities, supporting a number of new fruit business entities with the integration of primary and secondary industries, moderate scale and diversified operations, cultivating a model family farm, demonstration cooperative and demonstration agricultural industrialization consortium, and promoting the continuous upgrading of Liquan fruit industry.

  "Compared with the past, Apple’s sales channels are wider, but off-site sales, retail and wholesale are still the mainstream, and the proportion of e-commerce sales and direct docking of production and marketing is very limited. This situation has restricted the further development of the Apple industry. " Cha Yangliang said that to further broaden the sales channels, it is necessary to connect farmers with family farms and cooperatives more closely, reduce management costs through scale, and realize fruit classification. Under the support of large-scale production and quality classification, it will bring more opportunities for sales and make growers more profitable, thus forming a virtuous circle.

Not to mention the joining of the powerful actors, the word "Director Jiang Wen" alone is "sexy" enough, not to mention that Eddie Peng Yuyan randomly shows an eight-pack abdominal muscle, which can be said to be quite "attractive".

When Xiao Dianjun interviewed the screenwriter Li Fei before, he learned that the style of this film would be closer. When "Let Bullets Fly" was released in 2010, it won 636 million box office and became the champion of Chinese movie box office that year.

Nowadays, "Evil Doesn’t Suppress Righteousness" is released in summer, and the box office ambition is directed at 1 billion. As for whether it can replicate last year’s market performance, this is also what everyone is paying attention to.

 

Of course, there is definitely more than one Chinese film directed at the box office of 1 billion.

 

Tsui Hark’s "Di Renjie" series will return again! To tell the truth, this series is Xiao Dianjun’s personal favorite Chinese commercial film, and Xu Laoguai has been trying to play various new film techniques in recent years. Even so, the plot content can guarantee enough wonders.

However, I sincerely hope that the Andy Lau version of Di Renjie will return at an early date.

 

The first two works in this series won 286 million box office and 600 million box office respectively. Previously, it was shown in the National Day file, and this time the re-election is in the summer file. I wonder if the results will be by going up one flight of stairs.

These two works have been sharpened by famous directors for many years, which has given Xiao Dianjun infinite expectations.

 

It’s just a pity that Xiao Dianjun got reliable news that Zhang Yimou’s new work originally planned for summer release may be postponed for a while. However, in the first notice released a while ago, it looks very good.

The old man abandoned the "big dye vat" this time. I don’t know what surprise it will bring to the audience.

 

In addition to the works of the above-mentioned veteran directors, Xiao Dianjun’s must-see list also includes a wave of works from "new people".

 

Don’t underestimate the performance of "new people", because Jason Wu was still a new director when he made Wolf Warriors 2. Generally speaking, to see the possibility of a director, we must first look at their first three works.

Therefore, Xiao Dianjun Pick up the works of four new directors for everyone. Whoever can win the 1 billion debut depends on everyone’s choice.

 

These four works are very topical before they are officially released, which is no less than the popularity of other films. However, now it seems that the popularity rankings of these films are a little unexpected for Xiao Dianjun.

As can be seen from the above table, Bo Huang’s works, which were originally thought to be grounded and recognized by the public, will have a high popularity. As a result, except for the popularity of Douban in The Island, the data of the other two ticketing platforms are not ideal.

 

It seems that Mr. Bo Huang’s pre-suspense-style propaganda has not sunk well into the third-and fourth-tier cities. But even so, Xiao Dianjun still thinks that it will be a late-stage force and become a dark horse in this summer’s file.

Unexpectedly, two works with relatively low popularity in Douban have high popularity on other platforms. Especially, when it is difficult for more and more people to have confidence in the quality of this sentimental movie, it can still earn the expectations of many viewers through "ten years of feelings".

 

So, which newcomer can have the last laugh this summer? Xiao Dianjun once again turned on the magic stick mode and had a few words with you.

 

Dying to Survive

Competitors:,

Possibility of explosion point: 75%

 

At first glance, our schedule is the safest of the four films at present. At present, there are 4 movies scheduled for July 6th, and only "Grand Prix 2" will have a certain impact on it. Of course, Animal World, which was released a week earlier, still poses a relative threat to it.

Han Yan directed Mangai’s works again. Although the style is different, according to the insiders, Animal World is better this time. It can be seen that it is still very possible for a long time to reach the second week.

 

At the same time, after the box office and word-of-mouth losses of the first series, the overall performance was flat.

 

Although TFBOYS are gathered in the cards of "Grand Prix 2", as far as Xiao Dianjun knows, more fans of the three little ones don’t pay the bill. It seems that this most critical purchasing power will be discounted. The first film finally closed at 382 million box office. Now it is still one month away from the release, and the publicity is far from as hot as the previous film. Therefore, we have to draw a question mark here to maintain the box office performance of the first film.

On the contrary, from the very beginning, Dying to Survive grasped the two trump cards of Xú Zhēng and Ning Hao. Especially for Xú Zhēng, this is his third producer work this year. The first two producer works (and) have accumulated more than 1.1 billion box office, which has been recognized by many audiences in terms of word of mouth.

With a solid foundation in the early stage, the audience will naturally have confidence in this work.

 

Not only that, Ning Hao also joined hands as producer. It is worth noting that this work is the second work in the "72 Change Movie Plan" launched by Bad Monkey Film in Ning Hao. The first work was released last summer. What’s important is that the word "Ning Hao" has always been the guarantee of business and word of mouth, and the films directed by myself have proved the strength of its input-output ratio again and again.

Now Dying to Survive has officially started the road show mode. Although the whole film has not been shown publicly for the time being, we can feel from the 40-minute footage exposed during the road show that the quality of the film will be guaranteed.

Moreover, in this movie, Cass used powerful actors. In the feedback of watching movies on campus in the early stage, many viewers not only praised Xú Zhēng’s performance frequently, but also specifically mentioned Eric Wang’s performance. Here, Xiao Dianjun digress, Eric Wang has become more and more immortal in recent years, and his role as a "messenger" in the movie can be described as very arresting. After that, I was not afraid of being set up by others, and I became a different person in the entertainment circle. I hope this work can help you to know the actor Eric Wang, not Sekitani Kamiki.

However, in terms of subject matter, compared with the comedies before Xú Zhēng and Ning Hao, Dying to Survive’s work is adapted from a true story, which seems to be more social realism. Therefore, whether it can attract more audiences into the cinema like comedies in the past is also the key to its long-term sales.

After visiting Costco in China, Japan, South Korea and the United States, consumers say so …

  Recently, it was reported that Costco’s first store in Shanghai experienced a phenomenon of centralized queuing to return membership cards after its customers were full. What kind of experience is shopping in Costco? Yangzi Evening News reporters interviewed consumers who had had shopping experience in Costco supermarkets in Shanghai, Japan, South Korea and the United States respectively, and invited economists to talk about the phenomenon of card withdrawal in Costco Shanghai stores.

  Shopping: Costco, China.

  Maotai was sold out long ago, and the price of Wuliangye increased.

  Mr. Fu, a Nanjing consumer, happened to be on a business trip in Shanghai recently. On the evening of September 5th, he went to Costco Supermarket with friends who had membership cards. "Moutai has long been sold out; Wuliangye has also increased its price, more than 1,000 yuan a bottle; Hermes bag can’t be seen either. However, roast chicken is still hot. " Mr. Fu introduced that his most intuitive feeling is that there are many young people in the whole Costco supermarket, mainly consumers aged around 20-40.

  "Like a large warehouse, shelves like IKEA." Mr. Fu introduced that his friend read the recommendation online, knew what was cheaper, and bought a bottle of red wine and a bag of potato chips. He feels that if he wants to buy something cheap, he’d better do his homework in advance. Some foreign-made things are really relatively cheap. He took photos of several commodity prices, and his friends said they were cheap. For example, 25ml or 30ml of Chloe and BOSS perfume costs 399 yuan a bottle. Levi’s jeans cost 429.9 yuan. According to friends, they usually cost around 600 yuan.

  "There are still many people, but they are orderly." According to Mr. Fu, when checking the card at the entrance, it was quite strict, and it was an electronic card. Most people come to the supermarket as a family.

  Mr. Fu said that because he went at night, he didn’t see the queue to return the card. The normal checkout channel still has to queue up around 9 pm.

  Shopping: Costco, Japan

  Go shopping and have a PARTY when you get home.

  Mr. Lin, a consumer in Nanjing, lived in Japan before 2018. He told the Yangzi Evening News reporter that he had a membership card in Costco supermarket at that time, and the price was 4,400 yen, which was less than the RMB in 300 yuan (1,000 yen was about the RMB in 60 yuan). Japanese supermarkets are generally few and fine, while Costco supermarkets are full of American style and large quantity, which is very cheap on average.

  "Buy a trip, and you can have a PARTY when you go home." Mr. Lin introduced that Costco supermarkets are generally located in the suburbs. He lives in the center of Tokyo, 16 kilometers to the south, 40 kilometers to the east and about 50 kilometers to the west from several Costco supermarkets. Generally, family shopping is once every 1-2 weeks. Sushi is in a big box, with 48 pieces in a box, and 12 pieces in Japanese supermarkets. Roasted chicken is also popular in Japan, with a price of 699 yen. You should take the number before Christmas to buy roast chicken. Salmon and pork are also very cheap. Take pork ribs as an example, a large box is only 1800 yen. The most popular thing for children is a large jar of cashew kernel, which sells for 2,400 yen.

  Clothes are also sold very cheaply, such as jeans like Levi’s, which cost about 4,000 yen and are of good quality. He also bought ski clothes and glasses for his children, and bought his own black cotton-padded clothes for 4,000 yen/piece. Before returning to China, he didn’t see any luxury goods sold in Costco supermarket in Japan.

  Shopping: Costco, Korea

  I basically didn’t see the phenomenon of card withdrawal.

  Ms. Yan, a Nanjing native who once lived in Daejeon, South Korea, told the Yangzi Evening News reporter that she had set up a membership card at the local Costco supermarket through a friend’s introduction. She spent 45,000 won on a membership card, which was converted into RMB less than 300 yuan (at that time, 1,000 won was equivalent to 6 yuan RMB).

  Ms. Yan introduced that she felt that the items sold in this supermarket were very rich. She has been there several times and bought bread, beef, eggs, milk, vegetables and other foods. "The food is fresh and full of weight." Ms. Yan recalled that there are also some luxury goods on sale in the supermarket.

  Ms. Yan said that she basically didn’t see the phenomenon of card withdrawal, probably because the positioning of this supermarket is more in line with the needs of the middle class.

  Shopping: Costco, USA

  In 2016, I haven’t seen luxury goods yet.

  Ms. Yang, a citizen of Nanjing, spent more than 20 days in San Francisco, USA in 2016. At that time, she went shopping in Costco supermarket with friends with membership cards. When she traveled to the United States again in 2017, she lived in a homestay all the way. She usually went to an ordinary supermarket to buy daily necessities. Because of these two comparisons, she was deeply impressed by the cheap prices of goods in Costco supermarket.

  "Praise bread, $4.99, 3 dozen 36. A box of Butterfly Crisps is $4.99, 4 dozen 48 pieces. We drove in the west of the United States and didn’t eat all the way. Hershey’s chocolate and coffee are all sold by the package, and each package is more than one kilogram. Starbucks coffee beans are 2.5 pounds and more than ten dollars. " Ms. Yang introduced that this supermarket is suitable for family use because everything it sells is large. She found that if you buy the same product with similar total price in other supermarkets, the amount may be only half that of Costco supermarket.

  She remembers that Costco supermarkets in the United States are generally relatively large, about the size of IKEA or slightly smaller, mainly selling daily necessities such as food, clothing and use, as well as electrical appliances. But I don’t remember selling luxury goods at that time. (Yangzi Evening News/Yangyan reporter Merry ma Xu Wei Fu Yijie Intern Tao Meizhen)

After hot pot and mutton kebabs, mala Tang has also become popular in South Korea.

  "This dish is spicy, okay?" When I go to a restaurant in Korea, the boss often asks such questions after discovering that the author is Chinese. At first, I was curious why I asked, but after living in Korea for a long time, I found that "Chinese doesn’t eat spicy food" seems to be the "consensus" of many restaurant owners and waiters.

  Interestingly, Mala Tang, an out-and-out "Chinese food", suddenly caught fire in South Korea, and the "consensus" of Koreans on "Chinese doesn’t eat spicy food" is changing because of the popularity of Mala Tang. South Korea’s "Central Daily News" recently published a news report saying that Mala Tang has been sought after in South Korea in recent one or two years, and even promoted the sales of China beer in South Korea together with China’s mutton kebabs.

  Two years ago, most Koreans didn’t know what mala Tang was. Almost all of a sudden, several mala Tang restaurants appeared in business districts such as Myeongdong and Hongda. At that time, the author was so excited to eat mala Tang in a foreign country that he shared the address of mala Tang shop with other friends in China as if it were a treasure. Later, something unexpected happened. Mala Tang restaurants have mushroomed and exploded. How much is it now? There is a short alley downstairs in the author’s house. Only in this alley, there are three mala Tang shops.

  Nowadays, there are not only a large number of mala Tang shops in Seoul, but also many shops are getting bigger and bigger, and more and more branches are opened, forming a certain scale. One day, when I was watching TV, I found that the mala Tang restaurant downstairs appeared in an advertisement inserted by a famous Korean TV station. A search on the Internet revealed that this mala Tang restaurant has branches all over Korea, with more than 50 outlets in the capital circle alone, exclaiming that "the original online celebrity store is downstairs".

  Korean mala Tang restaurant, the decoration style is generally very simple, and the boss and employees are mostly Chinese. Although it is called Mala Tang Store, many stores are Mala Tang and spicy incense pot. There are all kinds of meat and dishes in the store for customers to choose and weigh. When making, you can choose to make it spicy or spicy. There are also many shops that offer other China stir-fried dishes and cold salad dishes as auxiliary dishes.

  In terms of taste, Mala Tang restaurants in South Korea have made some adjustments due to the limited variety of ingredients and catering to the tastes of Koreans. Although Chili or Chili powder is generally added to Korean diet, Korean food is relatively mild in spicy taste, and spicy pepper is not used in Korean traditional diet. Therefore, the spicy food, spicy incense pot and spicy pot in hot pot restaurant eaten in Korea are slightly different from those in China.

  When you think about it carefully, it’s not surprising that Mala Tang has spread all over Korea, because before it, many Chinese foods have been on fire. Speaking of Chinese food which is sought after in Korea, Zhajiang Noodles is the originator. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, overseas Chinese introduced Zhajiang Noodles to South Korea, and made localization improvement and opened noodle shops. Today, more than a hundred years later, Zhajiang Noodles has become a part of Korean daily diet. Incheon also has a Zhajiang Noodles Memorial Hall dedicated to this period of history. After the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and South Korea in 1992, Chinese hot pot and mutton kebabs became popular in South Korea, and now it’s Mala Tang’s turn.

  In fact, the introduction of Chinese food into South Korea is itself a product of non-governmental exchanges between the two countries and a microcosm of the history of bilateral relations. With the development of China and the deepening of foreign exchanges, there will be more and more non-governmental exchanges between China and South Korea in the future, and the people of the two countries will gain more understanding and friendship because of "eating".
