　　Facing the severe and complicated international environment and arduous domestic reform, development and stability tasks, China’s economy has made a good start. What do you think of this report card? The "Xinhua Viewpoint" reporter combed the key data.

　　GDP increased by 4.5% year-on-year: the economy stabilized and rebounded.

　　In the first quarter, GDP increased by 4.5% year-on-year, and the growth rate was 1.6 percentage points higher than that in the fourth quarter of last year; The chain increased by 2.2%.

　　"With the rapid and smooth transition of epidemic prevention and control, various policies and measures to stabilize growth, employment and prices have been put forward, positive factors have accumulated and the national economy has stabilized and rebounded." Fu Linghui, spokesman of the National Bureau of Statistics, said.

　　Since the beginning of this year, the World Bank and other international organizations have raised the economic growth forecast of China. "Under the current situation that the overall recovery of the world economy is weak, China’s economy has shown a positive momentum and injected beneficial increments into global growth." World Bank President Malpas said.

　　Fu Linghui said that considering the low base affected by the epidemic in the second quarter of last year, the economic growth rate in the second quarter of this year may be significantly faster than that in the first quarter; With the increase of the base, the growth rate will fall back in the third and fourth quarters. On the whole, however, the endogenous driving force of China’s economic growth is gradually enhanced, and the macro-policies are effective, and the economic operation is expected to improve as a whole.

　　Total consumption exceeds 11 trillion yuan: the overall recovery is improving.

　　In the first quarter, the total retail sales of consumer goods in China was 11,492.2 billion yuan, up 5.8% year-on-year, down 2.7% in the fourth quarter of last year; The contribution rate of final consumption expenditure to economic growth reached 66.6%.

　　With the gradual release of residents’ consumption demand, the growth of upgrading consumption has accelerated, and the consumption of basic life has continued to grow. In the first quarter, the retail sales of goods increased by 4.9% year-on-year, and decreased by 1.7% in the fourth quarter of last year.

　　"The overall consumption has shown a good recovery trend." Fu Linghui said that with the continuous efforts of the consumption promotion policy, the market sales have rebounded significantly, especially the service consumption has improved significantly, and the consumption has significantly enhanced the economic growth.

　　Yang Guangpu, an associate researcher at the State Council Development Research Center, said that at present, efforts should still be made to enhance residents’ confidence and ability in consumption, do everything possible to increase residents’ income, so that people can spend more confidently, and actively increase quality supply, effectively combine consumption expansion with supply-side structural reform, and continuously release consumption potential.

　　Fixed assets investment increased by 5.1% year-on-year: the steady growth of investment is expected to continue.

　　In the first quarter, the national investment in fixed assets increased by 5.1% year-on-year, which was the same as that of the previous year.

　　Fu Linghui said that since the beginning of this year, China has insisted on expanding domestic demand, actively played the key role of investment in optimizing the supply structure, increased investment in key areas and key links, and expanded investment in people’s livelihood, effectively safeguarding and improving people’s lives. The steady growth of investment has effectively enhanced the development potential.

　　It is worth noting that investment in high-tech industries grew rapidly in the first quarter, with a year-on-year increase of 16%. "The rapid development of high-tech industries is conducive to further enhancing the resilience of China’s industrial chain supply chain, and is conducive to continuously improving China’s industrial added value and its strength in global industrial competition." Xu Zhaoyuan, deputy director of the Industrial Economics Research Department of the State Council Development Research Center, said.

　　Yang Guangpu said that with the sustained economic recovery, the technological transformation, transformation and upgrading of traditional industries are expected to accelerate, digital transformation and green and low-carbon transformation continue to advance, and with the implementation of various support policies, investment is expected to maintain steady growth.

　　Foreign trade increased by 4.8% year-on-year: export growth was higher than expected.

　　In the first quarter, the total import and export value of China’s goods trade was 9.89 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.8%. In March, the total import and export value was 3.71 trillion yuan, up 15.5% year-on-year, of which exports increased by 23.4% year-on-year and imports increased by 6.1%.

　　Lu Daliang, director of the Statistics and Analysis Department of the General Administration of Customs, said that since the beginning of this year, China’s economic operation has stabilized and rebounded, production and demand have gradually improved, and foreign trade imports and exports have stabilized significantly. "In the first quarter, China’s foreign trade import and export showed strong resilience, and the start was stable and good, laying the foundation for achieving stable and improved foreign trade throughout the year."

　　Zhuang Rui, a professor at university of international business and economics, said that the rapid export growth is mainly reflected in the bright export of electromechanical and high-tech products represented by new energy vehicles, as well as the improvement of export growth to countries along the Belt and Road Initiative and countries with regional comprehensive economic partnership agreements (RCEP) and other trading partners. In addition, due to the narrowing of the year-on-year increase in international commodity prices, the growth rate of imports is relatively low.

　　CPI rose by 1.3% year-on-year: prices remained stable.

　　In the first quarter, the national consumer price index (CPI) rose by 1.3% year-on-year, maintaining a moderate increase, and domestic prices continued to run smoothly.

　　Stabilizing prices is an important task for doing a good job in economic work this year. Fu Linghui said that the CPI increase continued to fall, mainly affected by some stage factors: after the Spring Festival, the market demand fell, the weather turned warmer, the listing of fresh vegetables increased more, and the prices of some foods fell; The supply of live pigs is sufficient and the price of pork has declined; The international energy market, especially the crude oil market, has generally declined, which has led to lower domestic energy prices and so on.

　　Although the increase of CPI has declined, the market supply and demand have remained basically stable. In the first quarter, the core CPI excluding food and energy prices rose by 0.8% year-on-year, which was the same as that in January and February.

　　"Looking forward to the whole year, China’s industrial and agricultural products and services are well supplied, production and marketing are smoothly connected, the market order is good, and the overall economic recovery trend will gradually appear in prices. It is expected that the overall price level will generally operate in a reasonable range." Guo Liyan, director of the Comprehensive Situation Research Office of China Macroeconomic Research Institute, said.

　　PPI decreased by 1.6% year-on-year: it is expected to gradually return to a reasonable level.

　　In the first quarter, the national producer price index (PPI) decreased by 1.6% year-on-year, of which the price of means of production decreased by 2.3%.

　　Fu Linghui said that since the beginning of this year, world economic growth has slowed down, market demand has weakened, supply bottlenecks have eased, and commodity prices have fallen, which has driven down the prices of domestic oil, nonferrous metals and other related industries. In addition, the high base in the same period last year has led to a decline in PPI. Expanded.

　　Judging from the ring comparison, the PPI is basically stable. In January, PPI decreased by 0.4% month-on-month, while in February and March, it was flat.

　　Fu Linghui said that from the next stage, domestic demand generally tends to pick up, which has a certain pull-up effect on PPI, but the import transmission of international commodity prices still exists, and with the high base in the same period last year, PPI may be in a downward range in the short term. However, with the recovery of domestic economy, cardinal utility will gradually decline, and PPI will gradually return to a reasonable level.

　　The national industrial added value increased by 3% year-on-year: achieving steady growth.

　　In the first quarter, the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 3% year-on-year, and the growth rate was 0.3 percentage points faster than that in the fourth quarter of last year.

　　From the perspective of industry, among the 41 major industries in the first quarter, 23 industries maintained growth year-on-year, with a growth rate of over 50%. Compared with the fourth quarter of last year, the growth rate of added value of 20 industries rebounded.

　　Production of small and micro enterprises has improved. In the first quarter, the added value of small and micro enterprises above designated size increased by 3.1% year on year. According to the questionnaire survey, the prosperity index of small and micro-industrial enterprises under the regulations increased by 1.7 percentage points over the fourth quarter of last year, and the proportion of enterprises with good production and operation conditions increased by 1.2 percentage points.

　　"In the first quarter, the steady growth policy continued to be effective, the market demand picked up, the supply chain of the industrial chain accelerated to recover, and industrial production showed positive changes, but there was uncertainty in the growth of external demand, and the prices of industrial products were still falling." Fu Linghui said that in the next stage, it is necessary to deepen the structural reform of the supply side, vigorously transform and upgrade traditional industries, cultivate and expand emerging industries, and promote the healthy development of industries.

　　The average unemployment rate in national urban surveys is 5.5%: the employment situation has improved.

　　In the first quarter, the national urban survey unemployment rate averaged 5.5%, down 0.1 percentage point from the fourth quarter of last year. Among them, the urban survey unemployment rate in March was 5.3%, down 0.3 percentage points from February.

　　In March, the unemployment rate of the labor force aged 25 to 59 was 4.3%, down 0.5 percentage points from the previous month; The unemployment rate of migrant agricultural registered labor decreased by 0.7 percentage points from last month … … The unemployment rate of the main employment groups has dropped significantly, and the employment of migrant workers has accelerated.

　　Stabilizing business entities is the key to stabilizing employment. The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and other three departments have issued a notice at the end of March, which will continue to implement the policy of reducing unemployment and industrial injury insurance rates until the end of 2024. It is estimated that the average annual burden reduction this year and next will be about 180 billion yuan, and all kinds of business entities including small and medium-sized enterprises will generally benefit.

　　Fu Linghui said that with the economic recovery and the expansion of employment demand, the employment situation is expected to continue to improve. However, in view of the structural contradiction of employment, we should continue to increase employment assistance for young people, especially college graduates, accelerate the pace of industrial upgrading, and provide more high-quality jobs.

In June this year, Ziwudu Internet Cafe, located next to Qingdao University of Science and Technology in Shandong Province, opened its doors on the first day after its transformation and upgrading into an Internet Cafe. On the opening day, the Internet users were full, which made Wang Xiaodong, the owner of the Internet Cafe, happy.

Wang Xiaodong told reporters that he has been engaged in the Internet cafe industry for more than ten years. In the past, the illegal operation of Internet cafes was serious, security accidents were frequent, and the overall image of the industry was bad. "Two years ago, the Laoshan District Government of Qingdao issued relevant policies to promote the transformation and upgrading of the Internet service industry." Wang Xiaodong recalled that in 2014, the district government introduced two chain Internet cafes, Shanghai Wangyu Network and Beijing Bayou Network. Their spacious and clean environment, the service function of Internet cafes and coffee bars, and the standardized, branded and professional operation mode brought a lot of impact to local Internet cafes.

"Dark and noisy, malodorous, is people’s main impression of Internet cafes, so we must first guide Internet cafes to change the environment. For the first time, the regulatory authorities regard brightness and neatness as a requirement for the whole industry, and encourage them to pay attention to the upgrading of the online environment when preparing for renovation, so as to make it a bright, elegant and open public cultural place. " Wang Shaomei, director of the Cultural Press and Publication Bureau of Laoshan District, said that through active guidance and nearly two years of practice, the online service industry in Laoshan District has presented a new scene.

"In addition to improving the environment, the regulatory authorities also encourage Internet cafes to take advantage of their advantages and cooperate with various education and training institutions and other service units to carry out community education and training, online purchasing, remote consultation and other services." Wang Shaomei said that the regulatory authorities and Internet cafes explore special operations together, and some organize e-sports, book corners and chess competitions. Some open leisure stations, providing online coffee, leisure snacks, reading books and newspapers, etc., expanding consumer groups and enriching cultural consumption.

"I prefer this internet cafe model. Now I have time to sit inside with my friends for a while, and the environment is bright." Feng Li, a college student who often spends money in Ziwu, said.

In the first half of 2016, about 80 Internet service enterprises in Laoshan District were transformed and upgraded in the whole industry. Internet service places began to be combined with online competition, and virtual reality equipment and manufacturers gradually entered the Internet service places, seeking win-win cooperation and becoming a new driving force for the development of the industry.

Tan Hui

　　"Everyone mentioned Tan Hui during the start-up, but if you want to be a century-old shop, I hope everyone will only mention Xingmei." As the younger brother of Tan Hui, Qin Hong, the boss of Stellar Group, said so when interviewed by this reporter.

　　On July 20th, Stellar International announced that SMIIC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stellar International, was going to spend HK$ 55 million to win 25 cinemas from Tan Hui, and had signed a letter of intent.

　　　　　　 According to the plan, Stellar Group will abandon the coexistence of several businesses in the past and focus on the film industry.

　　And this strategic evolution, the Qin brothers have experienced more than 10 years of struggle.

　　The legendary big brother

　　Tan Hui seems to be an inextricable link, whether it is the Xingmei Department or the lace-colored "Heaven and Earth".

　　According to the industrial and commercial registration data, Beijing Changtai Song and Dance Hall Co., Ltd., the predecessor of "Heaven and Earth", was established in 1993. In May 1997, Changtai Song and Dance Hall was approved by the State Trademark Office to obtain the registered trademarks of "PASSION" and "Heaven and Earth" in both Chinese and English. In September, 1999, the State Trademark Office approved the change of the registrant of the registered trademark to Beijing Changqingtai Catering and Entertainment Co., Ltd. funded by Tan Hui.

　　It was in 1999 that Tan Hui took the first step to become a legend. He placed 75% of the shares of "Heaven and Earth" in his Beijing Sino-foreign joint venture Changqingtai Catering and Entertainment Company, with a registered industrial and commercial investment of 1.95 million US dollars. After the renovation, the "Heaven on Earth" changed from an old nightclub to a KTV-style business structure, and the consumption standard also soared.

　　According to people familiar with the matter, when the "Heaven and Earth" was light, the daily water recorded reached more than 300,000. It is estimated that the annual profit of "Heaven on Earth" is at least 20-30 million yuan.

　　Such a stable cash flow gave birth to Tan Hui’s "Zhuojing Department", and at the same time, it also completed Tan Hui’s capital accumulation from "stubborn master" to capital player.

　　In addition, the high-end communication field of "Heaven and Earth" has brought a large number of powerful people to Tan Hui. In the case of Zhang Enzhao, the former president of China Construction Bank, the prosecution’s indictment disclosed such details: In May 2002, Zhang Enzhao accepted $10,000 from Tan Hui for the first time in the "Heaven and Earth" parking lot, and after that, he went through various experiences and got a loan of 650 million yuan. The acquaintance with Li Peiying, chairman of the Capital Airport, is exactly the same.

　　In the face of the media, the Qin brothers did not deny that they once owned "heaven and earth", but stressed that "they were transferred out five years ago".

　　However, it was the creation of "heaven and earth" five years ago that made Tan Hui, the legendary big shot, succeed in his future fate.

　　In contrast, although Tan Hui’s "business childhood" is not well known by the outside world, it has some primitive accumulated strength.

　　In August, 1997, Tan Hui cooperated with his brother Qin Hong to establish Chongqing Changfeng Communication, invested in 800Z mobile communication (the predecessor of CDMA), and began to enter the telecommunications industry.

　　After Tan Hui controlled "Heaven and Earth" for one year, with the annual profit of 20-30 million yuan, in 2000, it invested in Chongqing Changfeng Communication (000892.SZ), the first capital platform in China. At the same time, it has acquired an optical fiber backbone network covering the whole country, and established a broadband metropolitan area network covering the whole province in Sichuan, Chongqing, Hubei and Jiangsu. A broadband network platform covering the whole network and accessing four provinces was formed.

　　After that, in 2001, the telecommunications map of Tan Hui took shape after seven years of business. In order to build the content platform of Changfeng Communication, connect with the network terminal users of Changfeng Communication, and establish the industrial model of "Telecom+Media+Technology", Zhuojing Investment and Changfeng Communication jointly established Xingmei Media Group Co., Ltd. The "Xingmei Department" was born.

　　　　　　 ride on a horse to enclose

　　With money and "capital strength" in 2002, Tan Hui’s business expansion was extremely exciting.

　　In October of that year, Tan Hui served as the chairman of Changfeng Communication, and began to invest in large-scale acquisition of content companies and media assets. Its subsidiaries include more than a dozen companies including Beijing Huaxia Culture Communication Company, China Film Stellar Cinema Co., Ltd., Feiteng Film and Television Base, Stellar Film and Television Culture Co., Ltd., Stellar Digital Media Co., Ltd., Stellar Shanghai Zhonglu Culture Co., Ltd. and Instek Video Technology Co., Ltd. in China Electric Film Archive.

　The industrial model of "telecommunications+media+technology" has made Stellar Group a dark horse in the industry for a while, and its M&A speed and business model have attracted attention.

　　In 2003, Tan Hui launched its capital market. In order to integrate overseas entertainment content and lay out Hong Kong’s capital platform, it acquired Oriental Charm (00198.HK, later renamed as "Stellar International"), Jingqi Publishing Group (8010.HK, later renamed as "Stellar Publishing") and mobile advertising (8036.HK) in.

　　As a result, the Qin brothers controlled four listed companies, and an industrial structure with capital as the leader, new media as the core and content as the support was formed.

　　However, the expansion of the Qin brothers has not stopped. In 2003, through the acquisition and publication of the banner, it controlled Cheng Bao, the oldest Chinese newspaper in Hong Kong. At the same time, it acquired Sunshine Satellite TV and established a content production and broadcasting platform. In July of that year, the first digital entertainment channel in China was launched in cooperation with Fujian Cable TV Network. In September, it signed a strategic agreement with China Telecom and became one of the first 13 strategic partners of China Telecom’s "Connected Star".

　　In 2004, relying on Stellar International (00198.HK), Tan Hui acquired the chain business of Internet cafes in Sichuan, and used the group resources to acquire Hunan Hunan Computer (SZ000748) to lay out the digital terminal equipment industry.

　　It has been impossible to verify the views of the Qin brothers on Xingmei Group at that time. However, when Qin Hong reviewed the original situation of Stellar Group to our reporter, he said, "The stall is too big, which puts great pressure on management, manpower and capital."

　　In fact, around 2004, due to the rapid expansion, Stellar Group has owned 17 companies of various types. At the same time, it has formed the capital platforms of four or five listed companies with Zhuojing Capital as the investment link, and the scale of fixed assets has reached nearly 2 billion yuan.

　　However, Stellar Group’s cash flow is facing torture. Qin Hong clearly remembers that "the debt ratio of the group was very high at that time". And this pointed to the pain of Xingmei Group’s expansion at that time.

　　Not surprisingly, Tan Hui still defined 2005 as the expansion year in the brief history of his enterprise.

　　At that time, Tan Hui bought Great Wall Broadband, with the intention of connecting the huge user base of Great Wall Broadband with Xingmei content industry and establishing an aircraft carrier giant of telecommunications media. When negotiating with CITIC Group and Great Wall Group (300089, Share Bar), the shareholders of Great Wall Broadband, the case of Zhang Enzhao, the president of China Construction Bank, involved Tan Hui.

　　Although it was later unscathed, Stellar Group and its related subsidiaries were affected one after another. In 2005, Stellar began to divest non-performing assets on a large scale, repay bank debts, sell Sunshine TV and reorganize Changfeng Communication.

　　Also in 2005, Tan Hui went through the relevant legal procedures and officially withdrew from "Heaven and Earth".

　　It is impossible to find out from the hidden known information whether quitting the "Tianshan Human World" helped Tan Hui. However, perhaps because of his sensitivity, in the case of Li Peiying, the chairman of the Capital Airport in 2009, he turned the tables again.

Qin hong

　　　　　　 Difficult reorganization

　　However, the impact of such twists and turns on this entertainment tycoon is obvious.

　　Qin Hong recalled, "trapped by the negative influence at that time, from 2005 to 2009, we have been in the process of restructuring."

　　In addition to retiring from Changfeng Communication, Sunshine Satellite TV and "Heaven and Earth" in 2005, in 2009, Tan Hui withdrew from Xingmei Union and was taken over by Du Huikai, the son-in-law of Zheng Yutong, Chairman of New World (600628, Share Bar) Group. In 2009, Tan Hui signed an agreement with Yang Jiacheng to withdraw from Chengbao.

　　　　　　 To be exact, Stellar Group has spun off almost all industries except the film industry.

　　In fact, Tan Hui has handed over the main business of Stellar Group to Qin Hong. Qin Hong is now the chairman of Stellar Group. At the same time, in March this year, Tan Hui increased his shareholding in Stellar International to 64.23% as a major shareholder. Almost at the same time, Wang Kui-cheng gave the position of chairman of Stellar International Board of Directors to Qin Hong.

　　When describing the whole structure of Stellar Group, Qin Hong said, "Listed companies are the platform for us to operate the whole strategy. Therefore, first of all, after four years of difficult resumption of trading, it was finally realized in late 2009."

　　Regarding focusing on the film industry, Qin Hong explained to our reporter, "From a realistic perspective, our Stellar Media was established for digital media, and then it entered the traditional media. By 2005, when we sorted out the company’s assets, we felt that the film sector was relatively complete. At that time, as a pioneer, Stellar Media has always been the first and second cinema in China and has been in this position. "

　　According to relevant information, in 2009, the box office market of the whole movie reached 6.3 billion yuan, and from the overall income of the whole industry, according to the industry practice of 1:3, all movie-related market plates reached 20 billion yuan.

　　In Qin Hong’s view, the film industry in the cultural industry, in terms of economic benefits, is the last large undeveloped industry that can be seen at present. The data shows that the box office of the film industry keeps growing by 30% every year.

　　start a new undertaking

　　"No matter how the outside world understands it, I prefer to regard this transformation of Stellar Group as a second venture." Qin Hong said, "And this idea of transforming the film industry is also the result of my discussion with Tan Hui."

　　Qin Hong’s film industry includes film production, cinema distribution, cinema construction and management, and film and television base development.

　　In January, 2010, Tan Hui injected capital into Stellar International with the gesture of "returning the carbine". According to the announcement, the company issued a convertible note with a principal amount of HK$ 100 million to its major shareholder, Tan Hui, and the net proceeds of HK$ 99 million were used as funds for possible future investments and general working capital.

　　As a result, Tan Hui and Smil (Strategic Media International, a major shareholder affiliated company) hold 59.41% of the company’s equity. If all convertible notes are converted, the total shareholding will increase to 64.23%.

　　At the same time, Stellar Group controlled by the Qin brothers injected high-quality assets into Stellar International. At the end of June, Stellar International announced that Stellar International would acquire its Admiral Team at a cost of about HK$ 1.2 billion, including issuing HK$ 480 million convertible notes and about 2.44 billion shares to Tan Hui. The company already owns two companies, GDL and SMIIC, which hold relevant shares in the operating companies of 12 cinemas in China.

　　In the cinema map of Stellar Group, Qin Hong said, "We have eight cinemas in Beijing next July, and we have three in Shanghai. We actually want to form four domestic cinema centers, the northeast and north China with Beijing as the leader, the east China with Shanghai as the leader, the south China with Guangzhou and Shenzhen as the leader, and the southwest center. "

　　BEIJING, July 24 (Xinhua) According to RIA Novosti, sobyanin, the mayor of Moscow, Russia, said that at about 4 am local time on the 24th, the city recorded two drone attacks, which did not cause serious damage or casualties, and emergency service personnel rushed to the scene.

　　"At about 4:00 this morning, it was recorded that drones attacked two non-residential buildings. No serious damage or casualties were caused. " Sobyanin wrote.

　　According to the news from the emergency service department quoted by the Tass news agency on the 24th, the wreckage of the drone was found on the Communist Youth League street in Moscow, and the preliminary information showed that there were no casualties. The social media channel of Moscow traffic department said that some traffic along Communist Youth League Street was blocked.

　　The Tass news agency also reported that a drone crashed into a commercial center building on Likhachev Street and exploded. Preliminary information showed that there were no casualties.

The procuratorial organs of Sichuan Province have integrated the spirit of the Red Army’s Long March into grassroots party building.

"Procuratorial Blue" on the Long March Line

Editor’s note  Sichuan was called Tianfu in ancient times. During the Red Army’s Long March, the three main forces of the Red Army traveled 15,000 miles in Sichuan for eight months a year, crossing the snow-capped mountains and grasslands with extremely harsh natural conditions, leaving important revolutionary sites such as Luding Bridge and the Red Army’s Long March Monument. In recent years, under the guidance of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the New Era, the procuratorial organs in Sichuan Province have thoroughly practiced the Supreme Leader’s thought of rule of law, solidly carried out the study and education of party history, and integrated the spirit of the Red Army’s Long March into grassroots party building and procuratorial team building, so as to promote the vigorous development of procuratorial business and make the "procuratorial blue" shine in the land of abundance.

Gulin County, Sichuan Province, is the first county where the Central Red Army entered Sichuan in the Long March, and the famous "Sidu Chishui" campaign took place here. This red hot land bred by Chishui River has a profound cultural heritage. Gulin County Procuratorate has refined the spirit of hospital motto of "Red Inheritance, Farunlang Township", and integrated it into the publicity and education of teenagers’ rule of law to help children button their first buttons in life.

"Gulin County has 400 schools with 150,000 students. Our hospital set up a juvenile prosecution team in Naai Button Classroom, and used the shared classroom system covering the whole county to carry out legal education. " Zhong Xingyu, deputy procurator-general of Gulin County Procuratorate, introduced.

In May, 2021, the party branch of the hospital organized police officers to go to Taiping Town, where the Battle of Sidu Chishui took place, to carry out on-site teaching of party history study and education. "The old man Hu Jinghua, a descendant of the Red Army, sat by the Chishui River and told his father’s heroic deeds." Yuan Xudong, a member of the juvenile prosecution team in Naai Button Classroom, said that the pursuit of red memory and the inheritance of patriotic feelings should be spread more widely through our classroom.

After full preparation, on October 27, 2021, the first red rule of law education class for minors in Na ‘ai Button Class was officially opened. More than 200 students from four primary schools, namely Taiping, Erlang, Longshan and Shuangsha, took part in the rule of law education class simultaneously through online and offline methods. The prosecutor explained the heroic protection law and the public interest litigation system in a simple way with cases, and implanted the seeds of patriotism and law-abiding into the hearts of children. The students also participated in the story of the Red Army. "Today, after listening to the explanations of the prosecutors and classmates, I seem to see the scene of the Red Army’s Long March, the tragic blood of Chishui, and the legal knowledge of how to protect the red relics." After receiving the education of the rule of law, Taiping primary school students said with deep feelings.

In Gulin County Special Education School, the juvenile prosecution team of Naai Button Classroom invited Tan Ting, the first deaf-mute lawyer in China who passed the national unified legal professional qualification examination, to carry out sign language popularization for deaf-mute children three times and record two excellent sign language rule of law classes, so as to inspire children to be confident and self-reliant with their experiences.

The juvenile prosecution team of Nai ‘ai Button Classroom also established a youth research base for the rule of law, leading children to experience the food safety testing process in the green vegetable base, identifying rare plants in the old forest of Huangjing, and providing more opportunities for children to practice the rule of law.

In Mianning County, Sichuan Province, the word "Long March" was first mentioned in the Bulletin of the Chinese Workers and Peasants Red Army issued in the name of Commander-in-Chief Zhu De. Liu Bocheng made an alliance with Xiao Yedan, the leader of the Guoji tribe of the Yi nationality, leaving many red stories and revolutionary sites for this small town.

"We insist on relying on red resources to guide prosecutors to inherit the red genes and continue the red veins, and strive to improve their ability to serve the overall situation and serve the masses." Jon, director of the Political Department of Mianning County Procuratorate, said.

From July to September, 2021, the procurator of Mianning County Procuratorate found that many sites, such as Lugu Defender’s Strike Back Site and Liao Zhigao’s old house in the old street of Shilong Town, were in disrepair, which seriously affected the overall appearance of the Red Revolutionary Site. In addition, many sites are located in densely populated areas, and the influence of local people’s daily production and life has intensified the damage to the sites.

It is urgent to protect the sites of the Red Revolution. Aiming at 11 problems such as fire safety hazards, man-made destruction and no obvious signs, the hospital quickly launched a special supervision action for public interest litigation of red revolutionary resources protection. "On the one hand, we strive for strong support from party committees and governments through active appeals such as county party congresses and two sessions; On the other hand, the county culture, radio, television and tourism bureau, the Veterans Affairs Bureau and other departments are invited to communicate and cooperate to discuss measures to protect the Red Revolution sites. " Tang Jian, chief procurator of Mianning County Procuratorate, introduced. At the end of 2021, with the support and cooperation of many departments, Mianning County Party Committee and County Government carried out protective renovation work on Mao Zedong’s residence in Mianning County during the Long March, and listed it as an important base for red education.

In Luding County, Sichuan Province, the iron cable bridge suspended on the Dadu River is famous for the "Twenty-two Warriors Flying over Luding Bridge" in the Long March of the Red Army. Although the smoke of war has gone far away, the spirit of the Long March, which swallowed mountains and rivers and shook the earth, has lasted forever. In recent years, the Luding County Procuratorate has adhered to the working philosophy of "Red Heart" in Party building and "Ingenuity" in business, and served the construction of a famous red tourist county in Luding by performing its duties.

"Is there a special dumping point for construction waste and domestic waste?" "How often do you conduct regular inspections?" "Is the joint law enforcement special activity plan formulated?" Recently, beside the Mozigou Bridge, the procurator of Luding County Procuratorate paid a field visit with the county ecological environment bureau and the comprehensive administrative law enforcement bureau. At this time, the 318 National Road was rectified by many departments and restored to its former cleanliness.

In March this year, the Luding County Procuratorate received a report clue from public interest litigation observers. Around the Mozigou Bridge and on the hillside next to the 318 National Road, there were cases of dumping and stacking domestic garbage and construction garbage, which were unsupervised for a long time.

"Domestic garbage is scattered everywhere, giving off a stench; Construction waste contains a lot of organic pollutants, heavy metals and non-heavy metal pollutants; The mountain of garbage has led to the encroachment of land resources and the destruction of the ecological environment, which has seriously affected the appearance of the county. " Prosecutors Chen Yongfen and Cai Yongkang of Luding County Procuratorate reported to the chief procurator of the hospital, Buluo, after visiting and investigating. After full research, the hospital issued procuratorial suggestions to the county ecological environment bureau, the comprehensive administrative law enforcement bureau and the governments of Luqiao Town and Lengzhai Town to strengthen supervision and control pollution.

After receiving the procuratorial suggestions, the four units actively implemented the rectification measures, treated the domestic garbage and construction garbage harmlessly in time, and set up temporary stacking points.

By inviting NPC deputies, CPPCC members, people’s supervisors, and township, village group and community cadres as observers in public interest litigation, the institute actively broadened the channels for finding clues in public interest litigation. Since the beginning of this year, the hospital has handled 18 public interest litigation cases, providing legal protection for Luding County to create a "red culture+green livable" tourist business card.

Baoxing County, Sichuan Province, is the world’s first scientific discovery place for giant pandas. "Building the Giant Panda National Park is a political task and glorious mission entrusted by the CPC Central Committee. Located in the hinterland of the park, we set up an ecological case-handling team of’ Panda Hometown, Procuratorial Escort’, and used the procuratorial integrated case-handling mechanism to open a full-chain professional case-handling mode from the aspects of combating crime, restoring ecological resources, and supervising the execution of judgments to help the construction of the Giant Panda National Park. " Yang Xuewen, Procurator-General of Baoxing County Procuratorate, introduced.

From May to September, 2021, six people, including Wang, illegally felled four maple trees in the state-owned forest farm in Baoxing County and three maple trees in the collective forest farm in tianquan county, making an illegal profit of more than 250,000 yuan, with a total volume of 34.32 cubic meters of illegally felled trees, all of which were located in the Giant Panda National Park. After the incident, the Baoxing County Procuratorate promptly used the mechanism of linking administrative law enforcement with criminal justice, and the mechanism of investigation, supervision and cooperation, and quickly filed a criminal incidental civil public interest lawsuit. At the same time, the hospital discussed the ecological restoration method with the Baoxing County Court, and jointly promoted the defendant to voluntarily subscribe for 24 tons of carbon sinks (the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed and stored) before the court to repair the damaged ecological environment.

On April 15 this year, the court made a first-instance judgment on six defendants for the crime of illegal logging. "This case is the first judicial case in Sichuan Province to introduce the concept of carbon sequestration to carry out ecological restoration. The purchased carbon sinks will help to achieve a larger range of greenhouse gas balance and even emission reduction, which is a useful exploration and innovation of the concept of public interest litigation repair. " Mao Changchun, procurator of Baoxing County Procuratorate, said.

Since 2021, Baoxing County Procuratorate has handled 51 cases of public interest litigation on ecological environment, and urged relevant units to plant more than 47,000 shrubs and vines, sow 750 kilograms of grass seeds, repair 27,000 square meters of damaged mountains, replant more than 180 mu of green areas, and compensate for ecological environment damage totaling more than 1.03 million yuan.

Hongyuan County, Sichuan Province, was named after Zhou Enlai’s inscription "The Prairie Through the Long March of the Red Army". "In the past, on this prairie, the Tibetan people acted as guides for the Red Army’s Long March, and supported the Red Army with highland barley and yak, which they depended on for survival, making indelible contributions to preserving the revolutionary flame. Mao Zedong affectionately praised it as a unique’ yak revolution’ in the revolutionary history of China." Ni Ling, chief procurator of Hongyuan County Procuratorate, told the reporter.

Stepping into a new era, the deep affection of the party and the people contained in the "Yak Revolution" has become a new driving force for Hongyuan County Procuratorate to perform its duties, serve the masses and overcome difficulties according to law. Keeping the interests of the masses in mind at all times has become the spiritual "password" of the party building work in this hospital.

In 2019, Chen Qian, a policeman from party member, participated in a case of intentional injury and death. Gengmou’s father died in this case, Gengmou’s mother was sickly and had an elderly grandmother at home. Family changes have forced Geng, who is studying in college, to give up his studies and barely support the family burden with the meager income earned by working. "We are particularly saddened by the completion of this case." Chen Wei said.

At the initiative of the Party branch of the hospital, the Hongyuan County Procuratorate set up the party member Assistance Group, which actively provided national judicial assistance to students with difficulties in handling cases, and at the same time actively provided one-on-one contact assistance to help them buy goods and listen to their growing troubles. The police officers also spontaneously raised a scholarship of 58,000 yuan to help eight poor students complete their high school studies through a love relay.

Tongjiang County, Sichuan Province, is known as "the hometown of Chinese Red Army". In the county, there are not only the largest Red Army Martyrs Cemetery in Sichuan-Shaanxi Revolutionary Base, but also 237 revolutionary relics, such as the largest Red Army stone inscription slogan "Chihua Quanchuan", which is called "Open-air Revolutionary Museum".

In addition to red resources, Tongjiang County is also known as the natural oxygen bar, with high forest coverage and rich biological resources, and is a national demonstration county for ecological civilization construction. Tongjiang County Procuratorate has made great efforts to build characteristic business brands such as "Party Building+Public Interest Litigation, Protecting Green Tongjiang".

"In 2019, when our hospital handled two cases of illegal logging of national key protected plants, it was found that a large number of national second-class key protected plants nanmu were growing in Dafosi Village, Tiefo Town, Tongjiang County. We handled the case and sent procuratorial suggestions to the county forestry bureau and the local government, suggesting that nanmu resources in the village should be thoroughly investigated, resource files should be established, protection signs should be set up, and daily management and protection should be strengthened." Fu Yulin, procurator of Tongjiang County Procuratorate, said that Tongjiang County has now demarcated 2,223 mu of nanmu protection zone, and each nanmu has an "identity card" and an "amulet".

Zhang Liqiong, chief procurator of Tongjiang County Procuratorate, said that since 2019, the hospital has handled 78 public interest litigation cases in the field of ecological environment, urged mines to reclaim more than 200 mu, rectified 3 million cubic meters of river earthwork, standardized the disposal of more than 800 tons of rural domestic garbage, and replanted more than 12,000 trees. In the next step, the institute will continue to perform the sacred duty of "the representative of national public interests", protect the blue sky, clear water and pure land of Tongjiang, and serve the green revitalization and development of the old revolutionary areas.

　　[Global Network Reporter Wang Boyaqi] Because of the sudden COVID-19 epidemic, Russia had to postpone the commemoration of the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Great Patriotic War scheduled for May 9 this year.

In this process, the public can play back the video content online, and the relevant staff will also answer the hotline 24 hours a day to provide consulting services on any details of the online activities of the "Immortal Corps".

　　Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the meeting of members of the Russian Federal Security Council held on April 16th that the risks brought by the current COVID-19 epidemic did not allow Russia to hold a military parade to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Great Patriotic War on May 9th, and related preparations were forced to be postponed. On April 28th, Putin announced that on May 9th, some Russian cities will hold air parade and fire salute.

　　On August 3, in the Republic of Tuva in southern Siberia, Russia, Russian Prime Minister Putin rode bareback. Russian media released photos of Putin’s vacation and leisure in Tuva on the 3rd.

　　Riding by the lake, fishing by the cliff, whitewater driving, swimming in the cold pool …

　　Russian media released photos of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin’s vacation and leisure in Tuva region of southern Siberia on the 3rd. The nearly 57-year-old Russian leader showed off his muscles and sports skills under the blue sky and white clouds.

　　Show your muscles again

　　Putin recently visited the Russian Far East, during which he made many "shocking" moves.

　　On July 31, wearing a tight diving suit, he waded in Chekalov Island to personally install a wireless signal transmitter for a great white whale. On August 1st, he took a mini submarine to dive about 1400 meters below the water of Lake Baikal, the deepest freshwater lake in the world.

　　On the 3rd, Putin went to Tuva Republic in southern Siberia to spend a leisure day in sightseeing. Two days later, the Russian media released photos and audio-visual materials of Putin’s trip to Tuva, and Putin, who was muscular, once again attracted the voice of surprise with the image of "tough guy".

　　An edited video shows that Putin takes off his coat to his waist, revealing his strong chest muscles. He rides on a bordeaux horse, holding the reins with both hands, and rides along a blue lake, followed by a local herdsman boy. After arriving at the destination, Putin dismounted, took off a Swiss watch on his wrist, put it on the boy’s right hand, and shook hands with the boy to say goodbye. Prior to this, Putin was a guest at the teenager’s home and had dinner with his father in the tent.

　　On the same day, Putin was still whitewater fishing on a steep cliff; Wearing a cowboy hat and sunglasses, driving a motorboat on the fast-flowing water; Butterfly swimming in the cold lake; Even climb the tree and put on a vigorous posture like a snow leopard. Snow leopard is a local endangered animal.

　　Political interpretation

　　Every time Putin’s "muscle show" attracts admiration, it always attracts "political interpretation" from the western media, and it seems that this time is no exception.

　　From Putin’s trip to Tuva, the Associated Press reporter thought of Putin’s trip to Siberia with Prince Albert II, the head of Monaco, two years ago. At that time, Putin’s presidency was coming to an end, and the outside world was full of speculation about his future. At that time, the Kremlin released a photo of Putin showing his upper body muscles, and the western media speculated that Putin would not be willing to give up power.

　　The Associated Press believes that in view of the fact that the Russian economy has been hit by the global economic crisis, now as prime minister, Putin intends to release a signal to the Russian people that he has the determination and confidence to lead the country out of the predicament.

　　James Rogers, a reporter from the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), "read out" more profound meanings from these photos, thinking that Putin not only showed that "everything is under control", but also seemed to imply that his body was strong enough to run for president again in 2012.

　　Gather popularity

　　Some Russian media interpret these photos of Putin from the perspective of "popularity". Previously, Putin’s judo level and fighting ability, as well as shooting tigers and whales, going into the sea and other moves attracted domestic applause, which also made ordinary Russians proud of having a "tough guy" leader.

　　On the 5th, the Moscow Times mentioned at the beginning of a series of articles reviewing Putin’s ten years in power that since he first became president in 1999, Putin’s popularity in China has remained high, and few other Russian politicians can match him. The report said that even though oil prices began to plummet in the second half of last year, the Russian stock market fell sharply. A poll in September of that year showed that Putin’s support rate was as high as 88%. In 2009, the Russian economy declined further, the unemployment rate soared and the ruble depreciated, but Putin’s support rate still reached 78% in July this year.

　　The Moscow Times analyzed that it can be seen that Putin’s support rate does not depend on the economic development brought about by high oil prices, but his personal image and temperament are in line with Russian expectations of leaders.

　　"They need a father figure, a strong leader who can take responsibility and make important decisions for them," yekaterina Egorova, a political consultant, told the Moscow Times. (Feng Wuyong)
