I can’t go home for the New Year, but I also have the warmth of home. The hometown that comes by express delivery is full of love.

□ Chutian Metropolis Daily News reporter Liu Qin
I received one package after another from my hometown, and the same delicious food was placed on the table. Although they were in a foreign land, they could not reunite with their families, but they still had a warm year.
This year, many people across the country responded to the government’s call and chose to celebrate the New Year on the spot. The care and blessings of relatives come to them with the package, which warms the hearts of wanderers.
A stranger who stayed in Han for the New Year.
Zhang Zhongyi, 26, comes from Yongzhou City, Hunan Province. In October 2020, he became a Selected Graduates in Wuhan, and now he is a member of the poverty alleviation team of Nanhu Street in Shiyang Village, Wuchang District.
In January this year, Zhang Zhongyi made plans to stay in China for the New Year. "I just joined the work and need more responsibility. I can stay in Wuhan and stand by at any time." Yesterday, Zhang Zhongyi told Jimu journalist.
Zhang Zhongyi and his wife
Zhang Zhongyi is an only child. After he told his parents about his decision to stay in Han for the New Year, he got their support.
On January 30th, Zhang Zhongyi married his girlfriend who had been in love for many years. To his delight, after his wife learned of his plan, she also gave up going back to her hometown in Yueyang, Hunan Province for the New Year and decided to stay in Wuhan to accompany him for the New Year.
"It’s the first time for both of us to spend the New Year outside." Zhang Zhongyi told reporters.
Compared with Zhang Zhongyi, Huang Hua from Enshi will spend the Spring Festival alone in the rental house. This will be his second time to spend the New Year alone. "The last time was last year, and I took the initiative to stay in Wuhan. I am still not used to it. After all, every Spring Festival before, I was with my relatives, and my rural hometown was lively and fun. " Huang Hua said. When he decided to stay in Han for the New Year again this year, his mind was full of scenes of family reunion, and he felt a little indebted to his parents.
Yang Tianchen and his wife
Also staying in Wuhan for the second Spring Festival is Yang Tianchen from Xiangtan City, Hunan Province. At the age of 30, he has worked in Wuhan for 9 years. He got married in September 2019, took his parents to Wuhan in January 2020, and the family spent the New Year in their new house. Due to the epidemic, his parents didn’t go home from Han until mid-April last year. "For more than ten years, this is the longest time I have stayed with my parents. I cherish the time I spent with them." Yang Tianqi said. Originally planned to return to his hometown in Hunan for the New Year this year, he responded to the call of the local government and decided to stay in Han for the New Year again, which not only reassured himself, but also reassured others.
Hubei people far away from home
Five years ago, in order to support her husband’s career and for the healthy growth of her children, Tian Xiujuan took her children and followed her husband to Hami, Xinjiang, 2300 kilometers away.
Tian Xiujuan’s family
Tian Xiujuan, 36, was born in a small mountain village in Hefeng County. For her, her hometown and Chinese New Year are closely related. In the first three years in Xinjiang, she and her husband returned to their hometown for the New Year.
Before the Spring Festival last year, Tian Xiujuan and her husband worried that the children had to travel too hard because their eldest son had just entered elementary school, so they decided to stay in Hami for the New Year. The three children were a little unhappy and often asked her, "When can we go back to our hometown? When can I see my grandmother? " At this time, Tian Xiujuan will miss her hometown and her relatives more.
"We originally planned to take our children home for the New Year this year, but we decided to stay after seeing local initiatives to celebrate the New Year." Tian Xiujuan said.
Tsang Man
Ceng Min, 26, comes from Xuanen County. After graduating from a master’s degree in 2019, she became a teacher in a school in Dongguan, Guangdong Province. Her brother is one year older than her and works in Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province. In 2020, both brothers and sisters harvested love. They made plans early and went back to their hometown for the New Year with their respective partners.
More than a month ago, Ceng Min and her boyfriend booked a high-speed train ticket from Dongguan to Enshi on January 25th. Her brother is going to return home on February 5.
Ceng Min’s parents are very happy to learn that the children are going home for the Spring Festival. Her father worked in Jiangsu, and went home more than a month in advance, renovated his home, installed air conditioning, and bought new quilts and shoes.
A few days before leaving, Ceng Min saw that all parts of the country called on everyone to celebrate the New Year on the spot, and most of her colleagues chose to stay. She couldn’t help but feel a little tangled. After much deliberation, late at night on January 24th, she withdrew her high-speed rail ticket and decided to stay in Dongguan for the New Year.
On January 25th, Ceng Min got up the courage and told his parents his decision. At the other end of the phone, my mother’s tone was full of disappointment: "How can you spend the New Year outside alone …"
To Ceng Min’s comfort, her brother was very supportive and he decided to stay in Zhongshan for the New Year.
A foreign land also has a taste of hometown.
These days, the Zhang Zhongyi family’s necessities are getting more and more every day. His parents bought two native chickens in their hometown and sent them by express delivery. This is his wife’s favorite food when she first went to her hometown with him. Zhang Zhongyi’s mother also specially called to teach him to cook chicken soup and stir-fry chicken. A big box full of express delivery, as well as homemade bacon, lotus roots, sweet potato chips …
My parents-in-law also sent many hometown delicacies to the young couple: beef, mutton, pig’s feet … The refrigerator at home was stuffed to the brim. "When eating New Year’s dinner, I will definitely make a big table dish and take a video for the elders of both sides to reassure them." Zhang Zhongyi said cheerfully.
Huang Hua
Huang Hua also received new year’s goods from his brother. He can’t wait to open the package, bacon, sauerkraut, etc. have been washed clean, and he only needs to fire and heat, and he can taste the happiness from his hometown.
"My brother asked me to open my mouth and said that he would send it after eating." Huang Hua told reporters. These delicious hometowns satisfied his appetite and made him miss his relatives in his hometown more.
Yang Tianchen, who has always loved to eat lard noodles, received 5 kilograms of lard and 2 native chickens from his mother, as well as more than 20 kilograms of meat, vegetables and radishes from his mother-in-law. "I don’t have to buy new year’s goods this year, I have everything ready." He said with a smile.
The rice cake made by my mother is Tian Xiujuan’s favorite, and the bacon in my hometown also reminds her. In order to make her daughter’s family have a delicious year, her mother, who is far away from home, sent Tian Xiujuan bacon, rice chaff, dried potato chips, local honey and fried rice … After receiving a heavy package, Tian Xiujuan was in a particularly good mood and carried it back to her home on the fourth floor.
Ceng Min’s brother and sister also received the New Year’s goods delivered by their parents. "Bacon, sausage, kang tofu, bean skin … and a vacuum-packed braised pork." Ceng Min introduced. These things, all made by my mother, are smells that can’t be bought outside.
"Next year, we can definitely go home for the New Year." Ceng Min said. No matter where you spend the New Year, your hometown is always a concern for wanderers. She hopes that when the spring blossoms and the epidemic dissipates, she will return to her hometown and reunite with her relatives.

Historical evolution of fireworks

□ Li Xuepu
The high-tech fireworks at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics are dazzling, among which the gorgeous welcoming pine fireworks bloom above the Bird’s Nest, and the pine needles are very realistic.
Fireworks, also known as fireworks, are filled with gunpowder and some metal salts in containers such as paper tubes, which are ignited and then sprayed with various colors. In fact, fireworks have become a common form of folk entertainment in the Song Dynasty. In the North Song Dynasty, Meng Yuanlao’s Dream of China in Tokyo mentioned many times, such as "fireworks rising" and "setting off fireworks on the spot", which was sandwiched between "hundred plays" to increase the atmosphere.
Beijing Winter Olympics welcomes visitors with pine fireworks.
China is the first country to invent gunpowder, and it is also the hometown of firecrackers and fireworks. Emperor Yangdi has a poem saying, "There are thousands of lights on the trees, and seven flowers bloom." It refers to fireworks, which stretch out like branches when they are sprayed. Since Meng Haoran, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, vividly called it "fire tree", the word "fire tree" has also become synonymous with fireworks.
Fireworks are generally considered to be a festive product developed on the basis of firecrackers. When the earliest fireworks appeared, there is no unified statement at present. But there is no doubt that the real fireworks should appear after the invention of gunpowder. As far as the origin of fireworks is concerned, there was a program of "swallowing a knife and spitting fire" in the performance of hundreds of operas in the Han Dynasty. In the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Xiao Qi also quoted Huainanzi as saying: "The skill of spitting fire with thunder comes from the home of thousands of people" (this article has been lost in this edition of Huainanzi). "Containing thunder" describes the sound of firecrackers, while "spitting fire" describes the effect of spraying. This shows that there was the illusion of "spitting fire" in the Han Dynasty, and this illusion performance of "spitting fire" was the embryonic form of fireworks.
In the Song Dynasty, the fireworks production technology and color categories have reached a considerable level, such as starting a wheel, walking a line, shooting stars, field mice and so on. According to records, Li Waining in Bianjing, Kyoto (now Kaifeng) in the Northern Song Dynasty, Chen Taibao and Xia Daozi in Lin ‘an in the Southern Song Dynasty were all famous fireworks designers and performers. Fireworks had become a folk entertainment commodity at that time, and there were fireworks workshops on the market for sale.
Wu Zimu in the Southern Song Dynasty said in "Dream of Liang Lu in December": "The market is full of tin and spring … and there are explosions and fireworks." The scale of fireworks in the court is very large. According to the careful "Old Wulin Story Yuan Xi", more than 100 fireworks were set off in the palace on the night of the last Yuan Festival, and the "Record of the Old Man’s Numerous Victory in the West Lake" in the Southern Song Dynasty described the situation of "setting off five-color fireworks" among the people and the court. It is said that in Song Lizong, Rizong and the Empress Dowager watched the fireworks being set off in the court, and suddenly a "field mouse" broke into the seat of the Empress Dowager, and the Queen Dowager was scared to panic with bursts of noise and dazzling sparks.
The victory of fireworks in Bianjing, Kyoto in the Northern Song Dynasty is also very famous. Historical records also talk about the emergence of "medicine puppet" or "medicine puppet" at this time, and its specific situation can no longer be tested. Some people say that it is the kind that shows the image of opera in fireworks. In the Southern Song Dynasty, although it was partial, Zhou Mi recorded the scene of Xiaozong watching fireworks in the twelfth year of Chunxi (1185) in "Old Stories of Wulin", saying: "The palace leak was deep, and more than 100 fireworks were set off, so the music was everywhere, and the candles were everywhere, but the driving was still going on." It can be seen that the situation is prosperous. Among the dignitaries, there are many people who set up a hundred pieces of ingenuity and set off fireworks all night for fun.
The fireworks industry in Ming Dynasty developed very rapidly. At the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, Tao Zongyi recorded the scientific formula of fireworks in his book Mo E Xiao Lu. Twenty-two kinds of pyrotechnic formulas such as "Golden Lamps and Silver Platforms", "Bai Mudan", "Matsuzaka Plum", "Aquarius Flower" and "Purple Grape" are listed in the sixth volume of the book. There are many kinds of fireworks in Ming Dynasty. According to Shen Bang’s Miscellaneous Notes of Wan Department, "Those who have voices say that they sound guns; Those who rise high say fire, and those who carry guns in the fire say three waves; If you don’t make a noise, you can’t afford to be a mouse on the ground … "In Ji Sheng at the age of Emperor Jing, in addition to the above names, fireworks such as china pink, Golden Pot Fishing for the Moon, Big Pear Flower and Mud Tube Flower are also introduced. Some books, such as A Brief Introduction to the Scenery of the Imperial Capital, Memories of Taoan Dreams, also talk about varieties such as grape trellis, pearl curtain, ever-burning lamp, wasp leaving the nest and beasts spitting fire.
In the Ming Dynasty, there were not only many kinds of fireworks, but also various ways to release them. In order to increase the lively atmosphere, fireworks are often not set off sporadically one by one, but are combined by tying frames, and all kinds of fireworks are tied to wooden frames in groups, and then connected in sequence with gunpowder lines. Once lit, they are kept for a long time. During the period, lights and meteors of various colors appeared, and from time to time, flowers and birds, pavilions and pavilions appeared, which was very spectacular. As stated in Miscellaneous Notes of Wan Department, "A rich family gathers hundreds of ingenuity on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, and the heat is transferred at the second time, and it is fun all night."
In the early Ming Dynasty, Qu You (word Zongji) had such a poem: "Smallpox blooms in countless months, and five-color auspicious clouds circle the platform." This also refers to the shelf fireworks, the so-called shelf fireworks, that is, on a ladder, stake or bamboo pole one or two feet high, there is a colorful pavilion like the themoon Moon Temple (or on the tower), and all kinds of fireworks and firecrackers are placed in it. Once lit, it crackled, and from time to time, meteors flew and bright bullets burst, and then thousands of flowers broke out, like dragons leaping, like a phoenix startled, and finally lightning thundered and smallpox blossomed. Perhaps this is the scene described in Qu You’s poems.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Ma Shiying also made a special fireworks with an organ and presented it to the emperor. It is said that when it was lit, there was a flying dragon hovering between the temple columns, which was temporarily legendary. "A Dream Record" describes the fireworks in the Lantern Festival in the capital of Liang, saying: "On the fireworks stand, there are ingenious stories, and rabbits are placed vertically. There are names such as fire helmets, fire umbrellas, fire horses, braziers, guns hitting Xiangyang, Wulong taking water, archways, etc. The sound of fireworks is deafening. In front of the two learning palaces, there are high-altitude lanterns, fireworks, fires, water rabbits entering the water and piercing the waves, and people are driven by the wind. There are moon races, high-altitude guns, nine dragons taking water, and nine turns to rise. " The so-called walking rabbit hangs a rabbit-shaped firework on a long line, and after burning, it sprays fire at the tail and runs quickly along the line. When the walking line hangs on the water, the rabbit can dive into the water and then jump out of the water to run to the other end of the line, which is also called "water rabbit enters the water and wears waves". The so-called "fire horse" and so on are filled with pyrotechnics in the shape of lacquered animals. "When moving, hundreds of animals burst into fire and trampled vertically and horizontally." Fireworks are also combined with lion dance, dragon lantern and other forms of entertainment, which is more attractive.
"Tao An Meng Yi" recorded "Lu Fan Fireworks" and said: "When fireworks are set off, the scenery in the lamp is collected as the scenery in the fireworks. The world’s lamp watchers look outside the lamp and fireworks, but they don’t flicker in the lamp, light, shadow, smoke or fire. They don’t know whether it is fireworks in the palace or the palace in the fireworks. " Its wonderful degree can be seen from this.
Jin Ping Mei, known as one of the four wonderful books of Ming Dynasty, depicts the plot of setting off fireworks on the Lantern Festival in the 42nd chapter "Setting off fireworks in front of luxurious doors and enjoying the drunken lanterns on the Lantern Festival". Zhang Dai, a writer in the late Ming Dynasty, described the grand occasion of setting off fireworks in Yanzhou, Shandong Province in his Dream of Taoan Volume II, and recorded the scene of watching lanterns and setting off fireworks and the types of fireworks in Beijing Lantern Festival in the Qing Dynasty. The types of fireworks and the setting-off scenes described in these materials can be described as wonderful and ingenious.
The story of setting off fireworks and firecrackers is also involved in Volume 8 of Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio: "Qingcheng is in Zhongyin, and it is sexual. When he was in charge, Yuanxi tied the donkey with sparks and firecrackers, and the head and tail were full. He led him to the door of the prefect, struck him and invited him, confessing,’ A donkey who offered fire was lucky to get a glimpse.’ When the satrap has a beloved son suffering from acne, he is in a bad mood and resigns. Please ask it in solid. The satrap had to make the man unlock the key. Just open the door, fire the engine and push the donkey in. The knocking donkey was shocked and ran wildly; Fei Huo shoots people again, so people dare not approach. The donkey went into the room, broke the ou and destroyed the retort, the fire turned to dust, and the window screens were all burnt. Family uproar. The pox child was stunned and died all night. The satrap hates it and will uncover it. It’s not necessary for you to go to court in all the schools. "
The variety of fireworks in Qing dynasty was more abundant, and the fireworks manufacturing industry developed further. Lvyuan Li, a Qing Dynasty poet, listed dozens of kinds of fireworks in the 104th chapter of The Road Lights, such as "the combination of the sun and the moon", "two immortals preaching", "five-star couplet beads", "respecting morality and washing horses", "Zhang Xian beating dogs", "a monk turning into a donkey" and "Li Sanniang pushing the mill". There is also a record about fireworks in Yanjing’s Chronicle of the Year: "On the Lantern Festival, there is a banquet in the imperial palace, fireworks are set off, and lights are put on in the shops … Fireworks shed makes all kinds of fireworks, which are competitive and curious, including boxes, flower pots, fireworks poles, thread-pierced peony, water-watered lotus, golden plate falling on the moon, grape trellis, two kicks, flying ten rings, five ghosts making a noise, and octagonal. In the Qing Dynasty, fireworks were set off in combination with scaffolding, and there was also a "combined device setting method", that is to say, two or even dozens or hundreds of fireworks were set off "coincidentally into a drama".
Zhao Yi described watching this kind of fireworks in the fifteenth year of Qianlong (1705) in Zhan Exposed Miscellanies, saying: "The medicine thread was ignited, and the results were painted in five colors. Dozens of fireworks, each of which will be finished, will burn out pagodas and pavilions, and dozens of caged pigeons and magpies will fly out by fire. The fireworks are so loud that the sound is like thunder, and the candle is half empty, but seeing millions of red fish jumping in the sea of clouds is a wonder of the world. " In the Qing Dynasty, there was also a monograph describing the production technology of fireworks-A Brief Introduction to Fireworks, which introduced in detail the discharge principle, raw material preparation, production techniques, operating procedures and other matters. Zhao Xuemin, the author, has carefully inspected the fireworks workshop. This book can be said to be a summary of the experience of fireworks production at that time, and it still has high reference value today.

Car home fell 2.18% to $24.65 per share.

On January 29th, car home (ATHM) fell 2.18% in intraday trading to 24.65 USD/share at 23:18, with a turnover of 750,400 USD.

According to financial data, as of September 30, 2023, car home’s total revenue was 5.273 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.46%; The net profit of returning to the mother was 1.489 billion yuan, up 18.04% year-on-year.

Important reminder:

On February 6th, car home will disclose its annual report for fiscal year 2023 before the market closes.

Ministry of Finance: Impose a 10% consumption tax on ultra-luxury cars in retail.

  The industry believes that a consumption tax on luxury cars in the retail sector will not only reasonably guide consumption, but also increase fiscal revenue.

  The Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation issued a notice yesterday, saying that in order to guide rational consumption and promote energy conservation and emission reduction, with the approval of the State Council, consumption tax will be imposed on ultra-luxury cars. This regulation will be implemented as of December 1, 2016.

  Tax will be increased by 10% on the sales of ultra-luxury cars.

  The notice pointed out that the sub-tax item of "super luxury cars" will be added under the tax item of "cars". The scope of collection is passenger cars and light commercial buses with a retail price of 1.3 million yuan (excluding value-added tax) and above, that is, ultra-luxury cars in the sub-tax items of passenger cars and light commercial buses. For ultra-luxury cars, on the basis of the consumption tax levied at the current tax rate in the production (import) link, the consumption tax is levied at the retail link, and the tax rate is 10%. The notice makes it clear that the units and individuals that sell ultra-luxury cars to consumers are taxpayers in the retail link of ultra-luxury cars.

  10% consumption tax will not be levied on the sold vehicles for filing within 5 days.

  For distribution channels, will the vehicles that have signed automobile sales contracts before November 30 be affected by the adjustment of the consumption tax on ultra-luxury cars? It is understood that for ultra-luxury cars that have signed automobile sales contracts before November 30 (inclusive), but have not delivered the real thing, taxpayers will file the signed automobile sales contracts with their competent tax authorities within 5 working days from December 1 (inclusive). According to the notice information, the retail consumption tax with the tax rate of 10% will not be levied for those who are filed according to the regulations, and the retail consumption tax will be levied if they are not filed and not filed within the prescribed time limit.

  It is difficult to manage the tax after tax collection.

  According to the information, when the consumption tax was implemented in 1994, it included automobile tax items. In the consumption tax reform in 2006, the automobile consumption tax was adjusted. It is understood that the current car tax items are divided into two categories: passenger cars and medium and light commercial buses. Among them, the larger the cylinder capacity of passenger cars, the higher the tax rate of consumption tax, and the tax rate ranges from 1% to 40%. Passenger cars with a cylinder capacity of more than 4 liters will be subject to a consumption tax rate of up to 40%. The consumption tax rate of 5% is applicable to medium and light commercial buses. The taxation link is in the production and import links.

  According to industry analysts, a consumption tax will be levied on luxury cars in the retail sector, with the aim of reasonably guiding consumption and increasing fiscal revenue.

  "The consumption tax collection link is changed to the retail link. The advantage is that the final selling price of goods can be taxed, and the tax base is obviously expanded, which can increase fiscal revenue and reasonably guide consumption, but the challenge is that the collection and management are difficult." The above analysis pointed out that the relevant departments took luxury cars as a breakthrough and imposed a consumption tax on the retail sector, which is also based on the fact that there are not many 4S retail stores in China compared with retail stores such as tobacco and alcohol, and it is relatively easy to control. This will provide experience for the next stage of other tax items to move back.

  The actual impact on car buyers will not be great.

  At present, the models with more than 1.3 million yuan are basically ultra-luxury car brands such as Bentley, Maserati and Porsche. In addition, some brands such as BMW X6, BMW 7 Series, Mercedes-Benz GL Series and Audi A8 have reached this level. Therefore, the influence of the new consumption tax policy is relatively small and fixed. But at present, it should not have much impact on the sales in this market.

  China’s automobile consumption tax was established in 1994, and the latest automobile consumption tax reform was in 2008. The tax rate for passenge cars with displacement of 3.0L to 4.0L is raise from 15% to 25%, and that for passenger cars with displacement of 4.0L is raised to 40%. Reduce the consumption tax rate of small-displacement passenger cars, and reduce the tax rate from 3% to 1% for passenger cars with displacement below 1.0L This time, the tax rate will be increased by 10% for ultra-luxury cars with a price of more than 1.3 million yuan. This adjustment mainly affects the sales of imported vehicles.

  According to the previous consumption tax policy, the tax rate of ultra-luxury cars is basically 40% high-end. Compared with the consumption tax of 40%, the current 25% tariff and 17% value-added tax have become small heads, so for luxury cars with a price of several million yuan, the consumption tax itself is an important factor to increase the difference between domestic and foreign car prices. Judging from the new policy introduced this time, an additional 10% consumption tax will be imposed on ultra-luxury cars with a price of more than 1.3 million yuan, which will not have a great impact on car buyers. In fact, many 4S shops will basically increase the price of ultra-luxury cars by 100 thousand to several hundred thousand yuan above the manufacturer’s guide price before they can pick up the car, and most car buyers also acquiesce to this.

  Whether the purchase tax on small-displacement vehicles will continue to be halved is inconclusive.

  In fact, in the automobile consumption, there is also an essential expenditure, which is the purchase tax. China’s automobile purchase tax rate is set at 10%, which accounts for a large proportion in the cost of car purchase. However, at present, China has adopted a preferential policy of halving the purchase tax for small-displacement vehicles of 1.6 liters or less, that is, it is levied at 5% of the vehicle price, which has played a significant role in promoting the consumption of small-displacement vehicles.

  The preferential policy of halving the purchase tax on small-displacement vehicles has been implemented since October 1, 2015. According to the plan at that time, the policy will expire on December 31, 2016, which means that there is still a whole month left. Up to now, there is no official explanation on whether the preferential policy of halving the purchase tax will continue, and more is speculation from outside. It is also reported that various departments at the government level have different opinions on whether to continue this policy. Earlier, some media reported that on November 1, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Communications, the Ministry of Finance and other ministries and commissions held departmental meetings to study whether to continue this policy, but no news came out since then.

  The data shows that the prices of 1.6-liter and below displacement models are mostly concentrated below 200,000 yuan. According to the current preferential policies, the purchase tax for bicycles ranges from 3,000 to 10,000 yuan. Once this policy is cancelled next year, it is likely to drive the sales ratio of models above 1.6 liters to increase in a short time. According to the data of China Automobile Association, in 2015, the sales of passenger cars of 1.6 liters and below reached 14,508,600, an increase of 10.38% over the same period of last year, which was higher than the overall growth rate of passenger cars and accounted for 68.6% of the sales of passenger cars.

On the stock market, high-level officials made intensive speeches today to boost market confidence.

  Today’s capital market has a huge amount of information.

  During the downturn of the stock market, Vice Premier Liu He and the leaders of the NPC and CPPCC made their voices in the official media successively, with high specifications and quite consistent pace. They responded to social concerns about the current economic and financial focus (especially the stock market issue) and gave many important judgments and measures, which were highly instructive.

  The market also seems to be "a long drought meets rain", and A shares have ushered in a long-lost surge. Let’s take a look.

  cause

  The Shanghai Composite Index dropped from the highest point of 3,587 in January this year to the lowest point of 2,449 this morning, dropping more than 1,100 points, nearly one third, and the market value of many stocks was below 1 billion yuan. Shareholders joked, "the stock market is this thing, Audi goes in and Alto comes out; Buffett goes in and Hobbit comes out. "

  Under the joke, it revealed the sadness of investors. Last Sunday, Chairman Liu Shiyu of the China Securities Regulatory Commission talked with investors and used "the spring of the stock market is not far away" to cheer up the market.

  However, market participants also said that "spring is not far away, but many enterprises can’t survive winter", which represents the general aspiration of the market. Since the beginning of this year, the financing difficulties of private enterprises and the frequent "explosion" of the equity pledge of major shareholders of private listed companies have caused the market confidence to collapse and attracted the attention of the regulatory authorities.

  China’s stock market fell sharply, which was influenced by many uncertain factors. Liu He summed it up with four reasons:First, external factors; Second, internal structural factors; Third, expected changes; Fourth, market technical factors.

  From the external factors, Sino-US trade frictions have been repeated, the central banks of major countries such as the United States have stepped into the interest rate hike cycle, and global stock markets have significantly adjusted back in the near future. Domestically, the task of economic restructuring has not yet been completed, and the year-on-year GDP growth in the third quarter has also slipped to 6.5%. The development of private economy and the protection of property rights have yet to be implemented.

  From the voice of the regulatory authorities, targeted measures have been taken on specific issues such as "equity pledge financing business risk", "private enterprise financing" and "market long-term capital source". It is worth noting that under the leadership of the State Council Financial Stability Committee, the coordination of supervision has been greatly enhanced, which is refreshing.

  Specifically.

  measure

  Everyone must be deeply impressed by the "skyrocketing" and "plunging" in the abnormal fluctuations of the stock market in 2015. After the deleveraging of the stock market in recent years, the scale of over-the-counter fund-raising and financing has decreased greatly, but the "leverage" mode of "equity pledge" is still an important financing tool for the major shareholders of listed companies.

  Once leveraged funds encounter market volatility, it will aggravate market volatility. Simply put, this process is "stock price decline — Burst positions — Investor confidence is frustrated — — Aggravating the vicious stampede of stock price decline.

  This is also the "technical factor of the market" pointed out by Liu He.

  According to the statistics of a securities company, as of October 17th, there were 2,423 major shareholders of listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets, accounting for 68.2% of all A-shares, with a total market value of 3.9 trillion shares pledged and a total market value of 985.2 billion yuan of open positions. The major shareholders were suspected to have touched the market value of closed positions of 2.95 trillion yuan.

  It can be seen that there are many companies close to the liquidation line, and the potential risks are greater. In response to the "risk of equity pledge financing", Guo Shuqing, Chairman of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, asked "banking financial institutions to scientifically and reasonably manage the risk of equity pledge financing business and take appropriate measures to handle it safely."

  Recently, after Shenzhen invested tens of billions of dollars to help listed companies, Guangzhou, Beijing and other places introduced measures to solve the problem of equity pledge of listed private enterprises, which provided "timely assistance" for high-quality listed companies, especially private high-tech enterprises.

  The CSRC paid more attention to the reform of the basic market system, and put forward seven measures, such as formulating the Administrative Measures for Private Equity Management of Securities and Futures Operating Institutions, improving the share repurchase system of listed companies, deepening the market-oriented reform of mergers and acquisitions, promoting the reform of the New Third Board system, and increasing the support for the listing of scientific and technological innovation enterprises.

  To save the market, not all listed companies have to save it. Some "junk" companies still need to be cleared to make the market more effective. Liu He said that the adjustment and clearing of the stock market is creating good investment opportunities for its long-term healthy development.

  private enterprise

  The speech of the top management reflects the care for private enterprises. Although financial policies have always been beneficial to the release of private enterprises, there are still many "obstacles" in the transmission of actual funds to private enterprises.

  In terms of importance, the private economy plays an important role in the whole economic system, contributing more than 50% of tax revenue, more than 60% of GDP, more than 70% of technological innovation, more than 80% of urban employment, and more than 90% of new jobs and enterprises.

  In view of the social anxiety about private enterprises, Liu He reiterated his adherence to the "two unswerving" principle. On the one hand, he unswervingly consolidated and developed the public sector of the economy, on the other hand, he unswervingly encouraged, supported and guided the development of the non-public sector of the economy.

  Liu He also cleared up the misunderstandings and deviations in the actual implementation process. "For example, the business personnel of some institutions think that it is safe to provide loans to state-owned enterprises, but it is politically risky to provide loans to private enterprises, so they would rather not do anything and not make political mistakes. This kind of understanding and practice is completely wrong. We must understand this issue from the perspective of politics and the overall situation. "

  If Liu He is pointing out the general direction, the two sessions are concrete implementation.

  Yi Gang, the governor of the central bank, proposed three ways to solve the financing difficulties of private enterprises, namely: (1) bond financing and providing credit enhancement services; (2) equity financing; and (3) supporting commercial banks to provide credit to private enterprises.

  The CSRC focuses on strengthening services from the capital market, which is also three measures: (1) enhancing the financing service function of the GEM and the New Third Board; (2) encouraging all kinds of asset management institutions to participate in mergers and acquisitions of private listed companies; and (3) using various debt instruments to solve the problem of difficulty in issuing bonds.

  fund

  The recovery of the stock market is inseparable from the "liquidity factor", that is to say, where does the "money" come from?

  In the first half of this year, regulatory documents such as the "New Regulations on Asset Management" made strict regulations on the entry of asset management products and funds into the stock market. However, under the current situation, the regulatory rules have been eased and improved to some extent: (1) the public wealth management products issued by bank wealth management subsidiaries are allowed to directly invest in stocks; (2) Do not set the sales starting amount of wealth management products; (3) Individual investors are not required to purchase wealth management products for the first time for face-to-face signing.

  This means that the threshold of financial management is adjusted. Billion-scale bank financial management is a potential capital to enter the market, which is conducive to stabilizing stock market expectations, but investors should also have the awareness of "taking risks at their own risk".

  For a time, insurance funds "made waves" in the stock market. It is undeniable that insurance funds have the advantage of long-term stable investment. China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission’s latest attitude is: "Increase the financial nature of insurance funds and strategically invest in high-quality listed companies, and allow insurance funds to set up special products to participate in resolving the liquidity risk of stock pledge of listed companies, and not to be included in the supervision of equity investment ratio."

  This time, market supervision must keep up.

  confidence

  Does the favorable admission of funds mean that the stock market can be "immediate"?

  Throughout the high-level speech, it conveys the meaning of "stable expectations". No matter from the laws of the market itself, or investors’ expectations, economic fundamentals, etc., there is no basis for a sharp rise.

  From the perspective of opportunities, Liu He believes that "the bubble of listed companies has been greatly reduced, the quality of listed companies is improving, and the valuation is at a historical low. Therefore, many institutions suggest paying close attention to the China stock market and think that the China stock market has a high investment value."

  He also reminded everyone, "I believe investors will make rational judgments."

  When the policy bottoms out, the market will also grind the bottom repeatedly.

  From the perspective of the real economy, China’s economy is still in the "three-phase superposition" stage, and some enterprises are facing some difficulties. This is precisely the stage where entrepreneurs can make great achievements. Entrepreneurs with courage, vision and courage should take the lead and live up to expectations.

  Liu He told everyone that the China government will create an equal environment, strengthen the rule of law, strengthen the protection of property rights and intellectual property rights, adhere to the basic economic system, and deepen reform and opening up. There is no reason why we should not be full of confidence in the broad prospects of China’s economic development. "Now is a critical moment when actions are better than a dozen programs. All aspects should be implemented more vigorously, with a stronger sense of responsibility, dare to take responsibility, act quickly, and effectively introduce some specific policies to promote the healthy development of the stock market."

SHEIN has sprung up among the four major fashion brands in the world, showing the international competitiveness of China brand.

In the rapidly changing international fashion world, SHEIN, a new generation of global enterprise in China, has achieved a sustained surge in sales with its unique "own brand+platform" dual-engine development strategy, and made its mark in the global fast fashion market. Especially in its core clothing independent brand field, SHEIN has successfully created an image beyond the traditional fashion giants by constructing and applying a flexible and efficient digital flexible supply chain and strong online retail capabilities.
Known as "upgraded ZARA", SHEIN stands out from the four giants of global fashion retail brands (SHEIN, ZARA, UNIQLO, H&M) and has become the most popular fashion brand in the world. In 2023, SHEIN once again won the global shopping APP download list and ranked second in the favorite clothing brand of young Americans.

This cross-industry application enhances the toughness of the industrial chain and provides innovative and high-quality products and services for global partners and consumers.
Jamie Salter, founder of ABG Group, thinks that SHEIN is rising rapidly and may become the largest fashion retailer in the world. At the end of October, 2023, ABG brand group announced that it had reached a long-term cooperation agreement with SHEIN for the Forever 21 brand, and SHEIN would design, manufacture and sell a series of Forever 21 brand clothing and accessories. In the previous transaction, SHEIN acquired about one-third of the shares of SPARC Group, which is the parent company of Forever 21. At the same time, Frasers, a well-known British fashion retail group, also announced that its brand Missguided has been transferred to SHEIN. This series of measures has further enhanced SHEIN’s influence in the global fashion industry and its localization development strategy.
In the traditional strong clothing export field of China, SHEIN has achieved a leap from product going out to brand ecological going out in an all-round way by virtue of innovative mode, and firmly grasped the three key elements of technology, sales and brand. Today, SHEIN has become a pioneer in leading the trend of global fashion industry, which has effectively promoted the transformation and upgrading of China’s clothing manufacturing industry to the brand building and technology research and development at both ends of the smile curve. This is a vivid portrayal of the upgrading and development of China’s fashion and clothing industry, and also a substantial manifestation of China’s fashion industry’s increasing influence on the international stage.
Recently, in the latest list of "Top Ten Fastest Growing Brands in America" released by Morning Consult, an authoritative consulting company in the United States, SHEIN is impressively listed, sharing the honor with top global brands such as ChatGPT, OpenAI, Facebook and Coca-Cola, and is the only global fashion brand selected, which fully demonstrates its strong growth trend and extensive influence on a global scale.
In this fierce competition of international fashion, a new generation of China global enterprise SHEIN has demonstrated the innovative power of China’s e-commerce industry with its unique online retail model and flexible supply chain for industry innovation. This strength has not only won the favor of global consumers, but also strengthened the position of China brand in the global fashion stage, which indicates that China e-commerce will lead the trend and change in more fields in the future.

Walking at the grass-roots level in the Spring Festival: Railway Washers: "Sauna" in the workshop

This article is transferred from: People’s Daily Online
Employees put the cleaned bedding into the ironing machine. Ma Lin photo
Walking into the washing workshop of Nanning Passenger Transport Section of China Railway Nanning Bureau Group Co., Ltd., you can feel a heat wave mixed with the smell of wet cloth. There are 228 people in the workshop, who are responsible for the cleaning of 32 pairs of bedding spare parts and 153.5 pairs of motor car seat covers in this section. "During the period of Spring Festival travel rush, there were more trains, and our workload also increased. The washing capacity in one day can reach up to 60,000 pieces." Zhou Guian, secretary of the Party branch of the Labor Service Company of Nanning Passenger Transport Section, introduced.
It is understood that the workshop is hot all the year round, and the four seasons are like "summer". "The temperature comes from the heat dissipation of the machine." Zheng Fengying, the supervisor, said that cleaning depends on 16 large washing machines with a capacity of 150kg, and there are 7 dryers for drying. Employees have big or small sweat stains on the back of short sleeves. Although the water temperature of the washing machine can reach above 90℃, the hottest place in the whole workshop is not here, but the ironing class.
The staff folded the ironed bedding neatly. Ma Lin photo
The working area of the ironing class is covered with brown wooden floors, and the white bedding piles up into hills. The employees repeatedly bend over and stand upright, and hang the wet bedding on the automatic folding roller presses. With a few clicks, I saw that at the other end of the machine, the bedding changed from wrinkled to flat, from wet to dry, from cold to hot, and it was output neatly. The number "+1" on the top of the machine indicated that there was another item waiting for delivery. In order to ensure high temperature sterilization, the machine works above 100℃, and the working environment is around 60℃ in summer, and now it is also around 30℃. You can feel the rolling heat wave emitted by the machine just when you are close. There are several shelves next to the machine to put the staff’s kettles, the smallest of which is about 2 liters. Because of the large amount of sweating, they have to pump water at least three times a day to ensure their physical needs. If there are fever passengers on the train, the bedding will be separately packaged and disinfected at high temperature to ensure foolproof.

"It’s comfortable to work here in winter!" Faced with such a question, Zheng Fengying recalled: January 22nd was the sixth day in Spring Festival travel rush, which coincided with the influence of cold air. The temperature in Nanning dropped to single digits, but the gas in the washable workshop failed. Because the boiler was heated by gas, it was completely shut down that day. Worried about the impact on the train operation, we tried to start work at the first time when the gas was restored. Everyone simply stood by in the empty workshop and waited for 12 hours. Employees sometimes rub their hands and breathe, and sometimes jump to warm up, without flinching. "At that time, I really missed the normal start-up. Hot is better than cold!" Zhang Fengning, an employee of the ironing class, teased. When the gas was restored, the workshop was hot again. Everyone put on short sleeves, immediately entered the state, improved efficiency, took turns eating, and worked hard until 5 am, finally ensuring the smooth packing of bedding spare parts for the day.
"Cut, cut …" The number above the automatic folding roller presses jumped to 5000, and Zhang Fengning inadvertently took a glance, as if he had achieved a small goal. She wiped the sweat on her forehead, went to the shelf to drink water, and then returned to the station to start bending endlessly … "It’s not hard, as long as I see the passengers can lie down safely on the bus, my work is very valuable." Zhang Fengning said with a smile. (Wang Yong, Zhang Yuyun, Ma Lin)
