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.

  affect

  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.

  extend

  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 series of achievements has continuously confirmed SHEIN’s outstanding performance in global operation, brand influence and business model innovation.
SHEIN constantly innovates its digital flexible supply chain, taking rapid response to market demand as the core, and promotes the technological upgrading and internetization of domestic garment industry. At the same time, its platform strategy uses the advantages of supply chain management to empower third-party brands and businesses and drive the internationalization of industrial clusters. 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.
Employees are folding bedding. Ma Lin photo
"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)

Happy health | Skiing is afraid of injury? Learning these will help you avoid risks.

This article is transferred from: Workers Daily
The footsteps of the Beijing Winter Olympics are getting closer and closer, and people’s enthusiasm for ice and snow sports is getting higher and higher. Recently, the rainy and snowy weather in Beijing, Henan, Hubei and other places has increased, and many people are more eager to ski and skate.
Skiing can bring fresh and exciting feelings and meet the needs of leisure and decompression, but it may also lead to falls and injuries if you are not careful. Today, this article will tell the snow field "Xiaobai" how to avoid risks and how to deal with injuries such as frostbite, bone injury and snow blindness.
Beginners learn how to fall before they learn skiing.
Learn how to fall properly before you learn skiing. During skiing, if you feel that you have lost your center of gravity and can’t control your speed, skiers can quickly bend their knees to lower their center of gravity. If you have a snow pole in your hand, remember to loosen it, stretch your arms naturally and sit your hips up the hill. The skis are slightly raised to prevent rolling.

1. Follow the protective points told by the coach.
Before beginners ski, it is best to learn a few tricks from professional coaches, including how to start safely, "brake", fall and get up. In addition, it is necessary to understand the norms of skiing itself, as well as the environmental facilities and management system of ski resorts, especially the terrain, snow quality, weather, crowd density, signal boards, signs and warning signs related to safety.
2. Go to a well-equipped venue to play.
Beginners should try to avoid going to informal ski resorts and skiing in the wild. Although informal ski resorts save money, there are many security risks because there are no management and protective measures. In addition, under normal circumstances, skiers can get corresponding compensation from ski resort operators and insurance companies if they are injured in the snow track of regular ski resorts, but if they are accidentally injured during "skiing in the wild", the expenses such as treatment can only be borne by themselves.
3. Choose protective equipment that suits you.
When choosing skiing equipment, skis, snowshoes, anchors and ski pole are all necessities. The snowboard for beginners with double boards should not be too short, but it should not be longer than the height. For those who plan to ski for a long time, it is best to equip themselves with a full set of skiing equipment. Appropriate taxiing equipment is the guarantee of taxiing safety. The protective gear of ski equipment includes helmet, snow goggles, mask, wristband, gloves, knee pads, hip pads and armor from head to toe.
Ski "masters" should always guard against danger.
In skiing, beginners and intermediate skiers should prevent skiing injuries, and the "masters" in the snow field should also be vigilant.
For the ski "Xiaobai", you must not be "fearless" when you first enter the snow field. You should practice and receive formal training off the field first, and master certain basic skiing movements before you go on the field, which is conducive to preventing the injury of ice and snow sports.
Intermediate skiers who have mastered conventional techniques should pay attention to increasing physical training in peacetime, especially the muscle strength training of lower limbs. The data show that 60% of serious skiing injuries occur in the knee joint, such as cruciate ligament injury and meniscus injury. These injuries will have an irreversible impact on the knee joint.
Do the "masters" of the snow field also need to worry? The answer is yes. Although there is nothing wrong with the skills, physical fitness and experience of the "master", we should pay special attention to the sports injuries caused by external factors, such as a large number of skiers and a high density of people. The "master" should also pay attention to observing the surroundings to avoid being accidentally collided by skiers with other skills.
In addition, with the gradual warming of the temperature, some areas on the snowy road are easy to turn snow into ice, and the friction coefficient changes obviously, so it is easy to fall when sliding to these areas. Ski lovers should carefully observe the situation of snow trails to prevent falls.
What should I do if I get injured on the snow field?
As the saying goes, there are no wet shoes when walking by the river. For skiers, it is inevitable that injuries will occur on the snow field. After the following injuries occur, they can be handled according to the corresponding methods.
frostbite
Skiers are most prone to hypothermia and frostbite because of the low temperature in the snow field. Once this happens, skiers should leave the low-temperature field immediately and change their wet clothes, shoes and socks in time. You can soak the frostbitten area with warm water at 40℃ and put on thick clothes to keep warm. But pay special attention to, can’t immediately fire, or soak in high temperature water. Don’t take off your elastic socks for frostbite and blisters on your feet, and then treat them after rewarming and swelling.
Joint and ligament injury
Skiing falls are often accompanied by sprained ankles and knees, elbow and shoulder injuries, and sometimes dislocations. Once you sprain, your joints can’t bear weight or your activities are obviously limited, you should immediately call rescuers. You need to go to a hospital with the ability to treat the injury and treat it in time to avoid leaving sequelae.
Muscle injury
If you exercise for too long, don’t panic when you encounter spasm. Just gently try to pull the injured muscle in the opposite direction to lengthen it, and the pain will be relieved. What needs to be paid attention to is that after putting on the equipment in the ski resort, don’t rush to the snowy road immediately, but do a few stretching actions seriously to fully activate the parts that are about to be stressed, so as to make them more flexible in sports.
Bone injury
Once a fracture occurs during skiing, don’t move, let alone massage or pull, because the fracture is likely to damage the surrounding blood vessels, causing congestion and edema, further increasing the difficulty of treatment. You should lie flat immediately and call rescuers.
Eye injury
The reflection of snow is very strong. If you are completely naked when skiing, you are prone to snow blindness. It is best to equip with professional ski glasses. If there are symptoms of snow blindness, don’t rub your eyes with your hands. Wash your eyes with pure water or eye drops, then cover your eyes with soft medical cotton yarn and close your eyes to rest.
Health science-what is snow blindness?
"Snow blindness" is an inflammation caused by the damage to cornea and conjunctival epithelium caused by strong sunlight reflected through snow, which is called "electro-optic ophthalmia". Usually, the eyes will be stinging and burning, and there is even the danger of temporary blindness, which mostly happens in snow and glaciers in high mountains.
Therefore, try not to have fun in the snow for too long on a sunny day, and it is best to control it within 1~2 hours. If you don’t enjoy yourself for too short a time, you should take protective measures for your eyes. You can wear sunglasses to prevent strong light from irritating your eyes.
Will a large-scale epidemic come back during the Spring Festival?
On the afternoon of January 22nd, the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council held a press conference on epidemic prevention and control during the festival.
Liang Wannian, head of the expert group of the epidemic response and disposal leading group of the National Health and Wellness Commission, said that as the Spring Festival holiday approaches, the flow and gathering of people will increase, which will indeed increase the risk of epidemic spread. However, as long as the current prevention and control strategies and measures in China are strictly implemented, and as long as we ordinary people effectively carry out personal prevention and control, such as vaccination, wearing masks, washing hands frequently and trying not to gather as much as possible, this risk can be effectively avoided or even controlled.
On the whole, it is unlikely that a large-scale epidemic will come back due to the flow and gathering of people during the Spring Festival holiday.
How to visit relatives and friends and hold banquets during the Spring Festival? Mao Dezhi, deputy director of the Rural Cooperative Economic Guidance Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and a first-class inspector, said that it is necessary to celebrate festivals and effectively prevent epidemics. There are four reminders and suggestions:
First, try to reduce visits, visits and dinners. If you really need to go out, you must wear a mask scientifically, change it on time, wash your hands frequently, keep less contact and keep a certain distance. If you have fever or abnormal conditions, you should report and see a doctor at the first time.
Second, if farmers have family gatherings or hold banquets during the Spring Festival, they should strictly follow the requirements of local epidemic prevention and control, try to reduce the scale of personnel and avoid large-scale gathering.
Third, rural grass-roots organizations should take various effective ways to strengthen publicity, education and guidance in a deep and lasting way, and enhance farmers’ awareness of self-protection. At the same time, we must do a good job in the plan, and start the corresponding plan in time once there is a situation.
Fourth, there may be places where people gather in rural areas, such as restaurants, hotels, homestays, bazaars, etc., and special attention should be paid to implementing the regulations on epidemic prevention and control. For example, people should take temperature measurements, scan codes, and wear masks when entering and leaving. At the same time, ventilation and disinfection should be strengthened in these places.

Waiting for the "reunion dinner" in spring

Wei Li

The reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve is also called reunion dinner, which means family reunion, happiness and auspiciousness. During the interview against COVID-19 epidemic this year, the author heard that an old father suffering from cancer and his three sons who were in traffic law enforcement posts had a reunion dinner that was postponed again and again, waiting for the spring dinner. After many twists and turns, I found the client.

Du Hongping, Du Taoping and Du Jiangping are all traffic law enforcement officers, and their parents are also retired employees of Liangping traffic system, which can be described as a typical "second generation".

The eldest Du Hongping and the second Du Taoping worked in Liangping, and the third Du Jiangping was transferred to the high-speed law enforcement department in 2014. As traffic law enforcement officers, Spring Festival and Spring Festival travel rush are the busiest times for the three brothers. But according to tradition, every year on New Year’s Eve, the family will try their best to get together and have a lively reunion dinner.

Different from previous years, my 81-year-old father has been suffering from lung cancer for many years, and he has been treated with chemotherapy three times before and after, and his health is getting worse. The three brothers privately agreed that this year’s Spring Festival reunion dinner must bring together all the family members, old and young, with no one missing, and take a family photo to make the old father on his deathbed happy for one year.

"The plan is at six o’clock in the evening, and everyone will have a reunion dinner together after the third child comes back. Because my father is so old, plus it is terminal cancer, it may be the last reunion dinner. " Boss Du Hongping said.

Just as my mother was preparing the ingredients for the New Year’s Eve dinner, Du Jiangping, the third son of the law enforcement brigade in Chongqing’s main city, told everyone that she would be on duty on New Year’s Eve and suggested that the time for the New Year’s Eve dinner should be adjusted to the second day of the first month …

Everyone thinks it is ok to postpone it for two days, as long as the family can be reunited and have a sense of ceremony during the Spring Festival to meet the wishes of the elderly.

In order to prepare for this postponed reunion dinner, my father specially arranged for my mother to cook dried pig’s feet in advance and buy Liangping’s special product "Daoer Mie" braised dishes, so that my children and grandchildren can get together and feel the warmth of the big family. The second child Du Taoping also arranged for his wife and daughter to go to the supermarket on the first day of the first month to buy fresh fruits and vegetables.

At noon on the second day of the first month, Du Jiangping, the third son, hurriedly drove back to Liang Ping’s hometown from the main city of Chongqing after work. Just when I arrived at the stairs of the traffic family home where my parents lived, a phone call stopped Du Jiangping and he was in a dilemma. The phone call was made by a colleague from the company-due to the severe epidemic situation in COVID-19, all people on leave are required to return to their posts immediately!

"It is complicated to get this notice, because my father’s condition is getting worse and worse, and it is rare to have such an opportunity to reunite. Returning to work immediately means that this reunion dinner has to be given up again."

Colleagues also kindly reminded Du Jiangping that due to the complicated identity of the people who came into contact during work, they must be disinfected before meeting their parents, so as to be careful to infect their families.

After much consideration, Du Jiangping informed his eldest brother at home to come downstairs, handed over the honey, cereal and other gifts he bought back to his father, and decided to return to work in the main city of Chongqing immediately.

"Just as I turned around, I heard a familiar voice-my mother shouted my nickname on the balcony on the third floor and told me to pay attention to safety and wear a mask during work. At this point, my heart is particularly sad, and my eyes are full of tears … "

In this way, the Dujia reunion dinner, which was originally postponed, can only be postponed for another time …

Among the three brothers, Du Jiangping, the third, spends the least time with his father. "When I was young, my father was a soldier and I was at home. When I grew up, my father was at home and I went to be a soldier again. Later, I went to work in high-speed law enforcement, and I always lacked companionship with my parents. Due to busy work, the last time I went home was more than two months ago. "

In Du Jiangping’s eyes, the father of a military background is particularly strict with the three brothers. He is often taught that a soldier will not fade after he leaves the army, and he should always keep his true colors as a soldier. Over the years, the three brothers have kept in mind their father’s teachings and worked hard to do their own jobs, all of which have become the backbone of the unit.

Although the epidemic delayed this "reunion dinner", the father in the hospital bed often called the three brothers who fought in the front line of the epidemic and told them to pay attention to their health and take precautions.

In the prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic, Du Hongping, the boss, is the head of Yunlong exit traffic health quarantine station of G42 Chongqing-Yichang Expressway. "Commanding more than 1,000 cars to pull over every day during the rush hour means making thousands of gestures. When eating after work, it is difficult to hold the chopsticks steadily and it hurts all over."

Du Taoping, the second child, is guarding the card at Qixing Station of X116 Line adjacent to Guanyin Town, Dazhu, Sichuan. When he returns to the unit, he must do a good job in ensuring the supply of rice bags, vegetable baskets, meat plates and fruit plates in the city and the normal agricultural production.

At the Dawan Toll Station in Yubei District, Chongqing-adjacent section of G65 Baomao Expressway, I found the third Du Jiangping who was inspecting the vehicle. Du Jiangping’s brigade is the third brigade of Chongqing Traffic Administrative Law Enforcement Corps Expressway. During the duty, be responsible for patrolling the 101-kilometer-long road surface in the jurisdiction and handling emergencies. Referring to this postponed reunion dinner, Du Jiangping choked several times: "When I was a teenager, my father sheltered me from the wind and rain and raised me to grow up; When my father is old, I can’t be filial before bed and accompany him. I only hope that this epidemic will end as soon as possible, and the family will take a family photo and have a reunion dinner. "

There are no heroes who fall from the sky, only mortals who stand up. It is these countless "retrograde people" who, regardless of holidays or during the epidemic, give up their small families for everyone, keep one side safe, and protect the stability of a city, in exchange for peace in the world and good years.

We also expect that this postponed "reunion dinner" will open as scheduled in the flowers and spring breeze.

"One table is hard to find" for the annual banquet of the state group, and the chef’s door-to-door service has become a new trend

All-media reporter Tan Faxin

Entering the twelfth lunar month, the pace of the Spring Festival is getting closer and closer, and handling new year’s goods and preparing for the reunion dinner has become a matter of concern to most citizens. Recently, the reporter visited a number of hotels and restaurants in the city and learned that before the New Year’s Eve, the reservation for New Year’s Eve dinner was "hard to find". Many hotels and restaurants were fully booked after the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, and only a few halls had seats left.

Through the reporter’s visit, I learned that in addition to going out to eat the group annual banquet, many citizens choose to make the group annual banquet at home, and some also invite chefs and cooks to come to the door to serve and leave the group annual banquet at home, which not only saves trouble but also has the atmosphere of the New Year.

Reservation for the annual banquet of the restaurant group is "hard to find a table"

In order to seize the rare business opportunity of the Chinese New Year, the merchants took precautions, put up a publicity banner to book the annual banquet of the group one or two months in advance, and some even launched a series of preferential activities, making the idea of the Chinese New Year early. In anticipation of the Spring Festival, the citizens put the group annual banquet on the family’s important agenda early, and willingly "pay big money" for a comfortable year.

On January 10, Mr. Wang, who worked in a public institution in the city, was depressed. On the morning of the same day, he called six hotels in the city to book the group annual banquet, and they were all told that the reservation was full and only a few seats were available for reservation. "I didn’t expect that I couldn’t book it more than ten days in advance. It didn’t seem so popular in previous years?" Mr. Wang introduced that in the past two years, he and his family had a reunion dinner in the city hotel, and the booking time was equivalent to this year. Although the price of the banquet was higher than usual, there was no phenomenon that seats could not be booked.

"We don’t have a private room now. If we want to book the group annual banquet, we can only spell the table in the hall." The staff of a restaurant near the sewage treatment plant in Zhoucheng said that at the end of December last year, the reservation of the group annual banquet had already begun, and even the reservation hall should be "the first to strike first."

The staff of a large restaurant in Shinan Ancient City told the reporter that there were many people who booked the group annual banquet this year. As early as last October, someone called to make an appointment, but the hotel didn’t start accepting reservations until December. "The private rooms from the 24th to 28th of the twelfth lunar month have already been booked, and there are few big private rooms left at noon." It is understood that the restaurant began to have a holiday on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month.

The reporter found that compared with small private rooms and large private rooms, during the Spring Festival, thousands of families were reunited, and large private rooms were obviously more popular.

Family dinner chefs come to cook.

Do you want to eat New Year’s Eve at home or in a hotel? This is a problem. Eating at home has an atmosphere, but the food is more homely and it is also very troublesome to cook. Eating food and service in the hotel is good and easy, but there is no feeling of Chinese New Year more and more! "Many city residents began to consider the issue of reunion dinner.

As the Spring Festival approaches, the group annual banquets of major hotels and restaurants have already been booked out. Don’t worry, just buy a table of semi-finished reunion dinner home, or book a chef’s home service directly, without doing it yourself.

"When a chef cooks at home, he can enjoy the chef’s special service at home". The reporter visited and learned that there are not a few people who provide on-site service for the chefs of the group annual banquet. Some chefs usually pick up the business of cooking at home, but at the peak of the group annual banquet at the end of the year, orders are constantly coming, and some can’t accept orders because of schedule conflicts. Citizens only need to make a phone call to make a reservation, and determine the number of people to eat and the contents of the menu, so they can wait for the chef to cook at home. Some citizens are too busy to ask chefs to help them buy food.

In addition to booking a chef through usual contact, you can also invite a "cook" through a housekeeping company.

Liu Feifei, a citizen, works in an enterprise in could, so he can have a holiday on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. In previous years, the group annual banquet could only be booked in the hotel. This year, she chose to do the group annual banquet at home. "I was busy with my work and didn’t have time to prepare. I heard that a friend usually invited chefs to come to the door for family dinners, so she tried to contact several chefs. After several times of communication, the chef’s schedule was finally confirmed. At noon on the 29 th of the twelfth lunar month, the chef was invited to make a group annual banquet. " Liu Feifei said, before eating the group annual banquet in the hotel, I always felt almost the atmosphere, so I had the idea of inviting the chef home. Unexpectedly, many citizens have the same idea. She contacted several chefs to determine the right time.

Why did you choose to invite a chef to cook at home instead of going directly to the hotel? Mr. Zhang said that on the one hand, it is more economical to have a family dinner, on the other hand, it is more convenient to invite chefs to visit and reduce waste. "All the ingredients are purchased by yourself, which is cheap and reassuring. Counting the remuneration for the chef saves a lot of money than in the hotel. Moreover, everyone also likes the atmosphere of reunion at home. "

"The raw materials of dishes can be purchased by customers themselves or given to us, because some ingredients, ingredients and sauces are difficult for customers to prepare at home, which will affect the taste of some dishes." Master Xie said that before, he used to cook and cook for others empty-handed. Now, many people try to save trouble and simply let them arrange the whole banquet.

The group annual banquet is a "lively and convenient"

The purpose of the vast majority of citizens booking the group annual banquet is very clear — — That is lively and easy.

Wang Yuchen, a 29-year-old citizen, said that he and his wife are both working in the company, and they are under great pressure at ordinary times, especially at the end of the year. Almost all the preparations for the Chinese New Year are carried out in a hurry. A few days ago, they were busy doing cleaning at home until late at night, so tired that their backs ached. Therefore, he decided to change the group annual banquet from home to the hotel. Although the cost is much higher, there is no need to prepare dishes a few days in advance and clean up after meals. The picture is convenient and easy, and you can take the opportunity to make time to chat with your family and free your wife from the tedious housework. "It is worthwhile to spend more money!"

Ms. Xiao, a citizen, said that in the hotel for the New Year, she can feel the joy and excitement of the Spring Festival. She believes that the Chinese New Year is to be lively, and it is very pleasant to have a reunion dinner in a happy atmosphere.

Liu Yuhang, who works in other places, just returned to Enshi on January 6th. As soon as he got home and put down his luggage, he rushed to a nearby hotel to book a table for the New Year’s party and informed his relatives and friends. He said that according to the usual practice in previous years, in order to spend the next year, he would go to various food markets and supermarkets to buy vegetables, chickens, ducks and fish, and then rush home with big bags, wash vegetables, kill fish and cook, and work hard for a while … … After eating a reunion dinner, he felt extremely tired from running around. This year, he decided to entertain relatives and friends in the hotel. Liu Yuhang told reporters with a smile, comparatively speaking, it is much easier to have a group dinner in a hotel, and it can relax the body and mind.
