Chen Hongbin, deputy to the National People’s Congress: Establishing a long-term guarantee mechanism for after-school delay service in primary and secondary schools

  Hotspot dialogue

  During the two sessions of the National People’s Congress, Beijing Youth Daily reporter interviewed Chen Hongbin, deputy to the National People’s Congress and director of the Supervision Office of Yancheng No.1 Primary School.

  Classroom efficiency has been improved after "double reduction"

  Beiqing Daily: How many years have you worked in Yancheng No.1 Primary School?

  Chen Hongbin: I was assigned to work in Yancheng No.1 Primary School in 2001. Since 2009, I have served as the director of the comprehensive department of Yancheng Experimental Primary School, the director of the information center of Yancheng No.1 Primary School Education Group, and now I am the director of the supervision office of Yancheng No.1 Primary School.

  Beiqing Daily: It has been more than a year since the "double reduction" policy was introduced. What is the current academic status of primary school students?

  Chen Hongbin: It is definitely different from the situation before the "double reduction".

  First of all, the burden of off-campus training for students is basically gone. Take Yancheng, where I live, as an example. Through the strict control and governance of our education authorities, there are no cultural extracurricular tutoring institutions now. For children, it really lightens the burden. Secondly, the children’s homework burden is also reduced, and the classroom efficiency is higher.

  It is suggested that social professionals participate.

  Beiqing Daily: The "double reduction" policy has achieved the goal of reducing the burden and improving the quality. What are the difficulties at present?

  Chen Hongbin: After the "double reduction", the workload of teachers has increased, and they may spend up to 10 hours in school every day, which reduces the time for teachers to participate in scientific research, teaching and research activities. Why do teachers spend more time at school? Because of the after-school delay service.

  In order to better meet the diverse after-school service needs of students, the Ministry of Education has made special arrangements for further improving the after-school service of compulsory education for many times, and promoted the after-school service to be further detailed and practical.

  Our school is also trying to create such an environment. However, after all, there are still insufficient professional personnel, because there are so many teachers who teach music, physical education, beauty, science and technology. So this time I have a suggestion — — Establishing a long-term and effective guarantee mechanism for social professionals to participate in after-school delay service can enrich the content of students’ after-school delay service, and on the other hand, it can reduce the time burden brought by "double reduction" to teachers to some extent.

  Beiqing Daily: How did your school solve the above problems?

  Chen Hongbin: On the one hand, we seek some professionals to enter the campus to participate in after-school delayed service through resources from parents and society. However, this is often a feeling, and the liquidity is relatively large, which brings difficulties to the quality assurance of delayed service.

  Our school is also strengthening teaching and research activities, especially the teaching and research of homework. For example, we have developed some long-distance homework, and the content of homework is not only around grades, but also to increase children’s practical experience, such as adding small experiments in science and technology, which has expanded students’ practical ability.

  Delayed service after class needs financial support.

  Beiqing Daily: How do you think to establish a long-term and effective guarantee mechanism?

  Chen Hongbin: I think it is necessary to establish a financial guarantee mechanism. If the relevant social workers are allowed to participate in the after-school delayed service for a long time, they need financial resources as a guarantee. According to their workload, it is both recognition and respect for them to pay appropriate labor remuneration.

  In addition, the human security mechanism should also keep up. At present, most university teachers and professionals participate in the delayed service in their personal capacity, and the original unit has no corresponding support mechanism. In order to let them participate in the after-school delay service in primary and secondary schools for a long time, it is necessary for these units, preferably the higher authorities, to introduce relevant systems, recognize and support their work, and include them in the assessment category, so as to establish a long-term guarantee mechanism.

  Gun advertisements issued by American arms dealers

  Overseas Network May 27thAccording to a report by Washington post on the 27th, it was revealed that Daniel Defence Company of the United States had posted an advertisement on the Internet, using children as models to promote assault rifles. It was the assault rifle produced by this arms dealer that led to the shooting tragedy of Texas primary school on May 24.

  On May 16th, Daniel Defence Company posted an advertisement on Twitter, in which a little boy sat on the floor and played with an assault rifle, but the caption was "Educate the child to make him walk the right path, and he will not walk the wrong path when he grows up", with a gesture of prayer.

  The US media pointed out that what appeared in the advertisement was a DDM4V7 semi-automatic rifle, belonging to the AR-15 series, which was improved from the American M4 assault rifle and sold for about $2,000.

  In the recent shooting tragedy in Texas primary school, the 18-year-old gunman used the same gun and shot 19 students and 2 teachers. He also exposed two guns he bought on social platforms three days before committing the crime.

At present, the company has set its Twitter account to be closed to the public. (Overseas network Liu Qiang)

HarmonyOS Zhixing Starlight Night is dazzling, and the top five M9 buildings in the world have become the focus of the industry.

  In the domestic luxury SUV market, the customer M9 is undoubtedly a bright star. With its excellent product strength and market performance, it has successfully broken the monopoly position of traditional high-end brands such as BBA. Now, with the official listing of the top five M9, this luxury feast has been pushed to a climax again, bringing more diversified choices to the high-net-worth users.

  According to the official data, up to now, the M9 has been released for more than eight months, and its delivery has reached 15,386 vehicles, more than twice that of the BMW X5. For four consecutive months, it has been ranked as No.1 in the domestic sales volume of more than 500,000 luxury cars regardless of body form and energy form, and its sales volume has even surpassed the sum of the second to twentieth models in the list. According to the public information, the M9 in China broke the sales record of luxury brand models in the domestic automobile market, and it was the undisputed first among luxury models above 500,000.

  There are five seats in the world of inquiry M9, and six seats in the world of inquiry M9. The differentiated competition shows the truth.

  Recently, the public data of Jielan Road, an automobile industry research institute, shows that the user groups who buy large-size and high-end SUVs all have the commonality of high income, strong purchasing power and high product quality requirements, which can basically be summarized as being young and strong, reading many cars and pursuing the ultimate. What they like in common is that they all like the customized configuration of ultra-luxury SUVs such as fishing benches and champagne cabinets.

  At the peak of M9 sales, we chose to launch the big five-seat version at this time. The differentiation and contrast between the two has become the focus of market attention. From the perspective of user groups, although both belong to the high-end SUV sequence, the user portraits are quite different. With its spacious seating space and excellent household attributes, the six-seat version M9 has won the favor of many consumers who pursue the comfort of family travel. The big five-seat version pays more attention to personal travel needs and drivers’ enjoyment and personality expression.

  According to Jielan Road’s survey of the owners of the M9 in the asking world, the first owners of the M9 in the asking world are mostly engaged in manufacturing, wholesale and retail, and many of them are merchants or entrepreneurs in traditional industries. They have a high income and a well-off family, with an average annual household income of 920 thousand after tax; More than 90% of them are family cars, and luxury brands account for 50%. Even 40% of users said that if the M9 was not released, they would not buy a car. Obviously, this is the greatest affirmation of M9.

  The biggest highlight of M9′ s five blocks in the ever-changing space.

  The sense of vision and space of the M9 five-seater car far exceeds the traditional luxury flagship SUV. The whole car comes standard with Shu Yun seat, which uses Huawei’s patented technology of seat separation, and can be folded and stretched, and the dual-enjoyment mode can be changed with one key. The seat is softer and has better support and fit. The seat comes standard with heating, ventilation and massage functions. The maximum inclination angle of the backrest of the second-row seat reaches 43, and it is equipped with dual electric four-way adjustable leg rest, and the maximum adjustment range reaches 75, which is comparable to the double zero gravity seat in experience.

  When the two rows of central seats are laid down, they can form multifunctional super-large luxury handrails, which are wrapped in NAPPA leather, and the color matching of solid wood decorative panels and door panels is consistent. Integrated with dual 50W wireless super fast charging and 66W wired super fast charging, equipped with oversized double cup holders, mobile phone slots, storage boxes, etc., it is both luxurious and practical. Users can switch between the flagship five-seat and luxury four-seat layouts at any time.

  The M9 five-seater car has 38 storage spaces, including fully enclosed central lockers, private lockers for the main driver and exclusive side cabinets for the co-driver. The storage space of the five-seat trunk of Wenjie M9 can be flexibly adjusted, and it is equipped with a variety of luxury accessories such as double slide rails, loading trays and boutique storage boxes, which can broaden more application scenarios.

  Play new tricks in the trunk and create more luxury life.

  The super DIY combination ability of the trunk is also very attractive. The space of the trunk with five seats in the M9 is far beyond the same level, and it can easily accommodate four 28-inch suitcases and one 20-inch boarding box under normal conditions. The two rows of seats are laid down, and the trunk volume reaches the largest in the same class, which can easily accommodate pulp boards, golf bags, snowboards and other items. At the same time, the top five seats of the M9 in Wenjie are equipped with double slide rails, and the trunk space can be expanded with a variety of luxury accessories, such as limiters, loading trays, boutique storage boxes, mountain and sea seats, etc. Through these accessories, the five-seat M9 can be turned into a camper, and you can get close to nature and enjoy life anytime and anywhere.

  Huawei’s black technology is fully on the bus, and technology leads the future travel.

  As the flagship model of Huawei HarmonyOS Zhixing, the technological sense of the M9 has been well received and recognized by everyone since its listing. HUAWEI XPIXEL Megapixel Smart Projection Headlights, HarmonyOS Smart Cockpit, HUAWEI ARHUD Head-up Display System, HUAWEI ADS 3.0 Advanced Intelligent Driver Assistance System, and other top ten smart car black technologies all appeared, bringing unprecedented intelligent travel experience to drivers and passengers. In addition, the top five seats of the M9 also added comfortable braking, non-inductive braking and other control configurations to make driving easier.

  The listing of the top five M9 seats not only injects new vitality into the luxury SUV market, but also provides more diversified choices for high-net-worth users. From the sales performance to the product performance, the M9 has demonstrated its great strength as a representative of high-end automobile brands in China. We have reason to believe that in the future market competition, M9 will continue to maintain its leading position and lead the luxury SUV market in China to a higher and further direction.

  After the successful conclusion of the press conference, "HarmonyOS Zhixing Starlight Night" was as bright as a star. At the event site, the presence of Hu Jun, Liu Yijun, Christy Chung, Tu Songyan, Vengo, Lingyun, Laure Shang and other star guests added infinite starlight to the event. These stars not only shared the warm stories with M9, but also conveyed their sincere feelings about this new car. The event was a great success, which not only won wide acclaim in the industry, but also showed the brand charm and market potential of M9 in the world.

The implementation of the new national standard of "slimming" packaging says "no" to excessive packaging of tea!

  Xinhua News Agency, Hangzhou, September 1st Title: The implementation of the new national standard of "slimming" packaging says "no" to excessive packaging of tea!

  Xinhua News Agency reporter Natalie

  The newly revised Food and Cosmetics for Restricting Overpackaging of Commodities (hereinafter referred to as the new national standard) came into effect on September 1, which means that there are new restrictions on the packaging of food and cosmetics, including tea.

  The reporter learned that since April this year, various localities have continuously promoted the special treatment of tea over-packaging, and the industry has paid more attention to the problem of over-packaging. After the tea packaging was "lightly packed", the "burden" of tea enterprises was reduced, and consumers were much more affordable.

  Say "No" to the over-packaging of tea.

  "Two ounces of tea, two pounds of packaging", in the actual sales process of tea products, many merchants often use their brains on tea packaging in order to "create greater economic value", and the resulting over-packaging problem once became a normal state. According to the survey report released by China Consumers Association in March this year, over 80% of consumers are against over-packaging.

  The picture shows an over-packaged tea investigated by Hangzhou Municipal Market Supervision Administration in May this year. This tea package with a net content of 50g tea has a void ratio of 72%, which does not meet the new national standard. (Photo courtesy of Hangzhou Municipal Market Supervision Administration)

  "Many consumers spend about 150 yuan on buying tea, and some tea packaging costs are 100 yuan." Xu Rongbing, the person in charge of Hangzhou Yuhang Tianlong Tea Co., Ltd., said frankly that some consumers buy tea to give gifts, thinking that the more exquisite the packaging of the gift box, the more decent the gift.

  Aiming at the problem of over-packaging, the new national standard clearly stipulates the number of packaging layers, packaging cost and void ratio of 31 kinds of food and 16 kinds of cosmetics, including tea.

  "According to the new standard, tea packaging cannot exceed four layers, and the packaging cost is less than or equal to 20% of the overall selling price." Jie Yu, head of the quality inspection team of Hangzhou Municipal Market Supervision Administration, said that the standard also specified the package void ratio in detail according to the net content of a single item in the package. "For example, if the net content of a can of tea is more than 50 grams, the pot of tea will be packed in a box, and the void ratio of this box will be less than or equal to 30%."

  On August 29th, the reporter photographed the Zhejiang Xinchang Giant Buddha Longjing packaging in a merchant in Jiangnan tea market. The 125g tea was sealed in an aluminum foil bag in an iron box, which was introduced by the local market supervision department to meet the new national standard.

  At the same time, the No.2 revision of the national standard "Restrict the over-packaging of commodities and require food and cosmetics" is seeking opinions from the society, including "reducing the number of packaging layers from no more than four to no more than three" and "reducing the proportion of packaging cost to sales price from 20% to 15%", etc. These adjustments have undergone rigorous market research and demonstration.

  "The mainstream packaging of tea products in the market is two-tier and three-tier, and the three-tier packaging can fully meet the necessary functional needs of tea protection, display, storage and transportation." Wei Hong, deputy director of the Department of Standards and Technology Management of the General Administration of Market Supervision, said that the survey found that nearly 90% of the product packaging cost was below 15% of the total cost, and the average packaging cost accounted for 7.9%, so there was room for further reduction.

  Since April this year, investigations have been carried out in many places. Up to now, Zhejiang has dispatched 23,000 law enforcement personnel, seized and detained 15,900 illegal packages, and corrected and investigated 548 problems such as excessive packaging of tea; Fujian interviewed local e-commerce 22 times and issued 155 rectification notices; Sichuan carried out 2,705 law enforcement popularization, issued 4,748 public service advertisements against over-packaging, and enterprises signed 1,715 letters of commitment.

  "China is a big tea country, and its planting scale, total output and consumption rank first in the world. There are nearly 1.55 million tea production and operation entities in the whole industry. " Shen Weiwei, deputy supervisor of China Tea Circulation Association, said that since the special treatment of tea over-packaging was carried out, the whole industry has attached great importance to the problem of over-packaging, and enterprises’ active rectification has been speeding up.

  What new changes have been brought about by the "slimming" of packaging?

  What new changes will the implementation of the new national standard of "slimming" packaging bring to the industry, consumers and regulatory authorities?

  — — Tea packaging is "going into battle lightly". Jiangnan tea market is the largest tea distribution base in Hangzhou, and tea buyers come here in an endless stream every day. The reporter walked into the market a few days ago and saw that there were all kinds of packaged tea in the shops on the first floor, mostly in bulk, paper packaging, tin can packaging and gift box packaging, and the packaging layers were all within three floors. Open a tea product named "Laoshu Longjing Gift Box". There are two cans of tea in a book-sized paper gift box. According to the local market supervision department, this product meets the requirements of the new national standard.

  — — The "burden" of enterprises is smaller, and consumers are much more affordable. Chen Ruihong, the head of a tea enterprise, believes that the rectification of over-packaging is of great benefit to the high-quality development of the industry. This allows enterprises to return their attention to the quality of tea itself, instead of using packaging to attract consumers and form healthy competition. "We will now integrate more Chinese style elements into tea packaging to make the packaging more cultural."

  Liao Changyou, the person in charge of Jiangnan tea market, said that taking Jingshan tea in Yuhang, Hangzhou as an example, the packaging cost used to be 50-60 yuan, but now as long as it is around 20 yuan, the product price will also drop after the packaging price drops.

  — — Online and offline joint efforts, supervision to improve energy and efficiency. In view of the characteristics of many e-commerce platforms and active tea trading, the Beijing Municipal Market Supervision Administration concentrated on interviewing platform enterprises such as JD.COM, Meituan and Tik Tok to guide enterprises to strengthen the internal audit of commodity packaging; Relying on the platform economy digital supervision system "Zhejiang Fair Online", Zhejiang Market Supervision Administration established the "Online Monitoring Model of Tea Overpackaging" to monitor 30 e-commerce platforms such as Tmall, JD.COM and Pinduoduo, covering 13,000 online stores and 163,000 product information.

  Let the packaging "simple style" fall into practice

  Excessive packaging of tea is easy to cause waste of resources and environmental pollution, and many tea gift boxes are difficult to be reused, and are often easily discarded as domestic garbage. The implementation of the new national standard will make low-carbon environmental protection deeply rooted in people’s hearts. Respondents believe that the "simple style" of packaging is not a gust of wind, but a multi-pronged approach should be taken to prevent the problem from rebounding.

  Wei Saiming, chairman of the Technical Committee of China Tea Co., Ltd., believes that the new national standard has a very important guiding role in regulating and leading the healthy development of the tea industry, building a resource-saving and environment-friendly society, and accelerating the green and low-carbon transformation.

  The reporter learned that Zhejiang issued the "Operational Guidelines for the Banned Catalogue of Tea Overpackaging Network in the Province" to urge the e-commerce platform to strengthen the packaging compliance audit of operators in the platform. For example, Taobao and Tmall have dynamically monitored and evaluated online product compliance and business rectification effect, and banned the sale of 39 kinds of over-packaged tea products.

  In Fan Ziwei’s view, the innovation of packaging is also very important. The Federation uses platforms such as packaging industry science and technology awards and R&D centers to promote packaging enterprises to use renewable materials, degradable materials and recyclable materials to develop more environmentally friendly packaging methods.

  However, there are still some regulatory difficulties in tea over-packaging. Some consumers will buy tea gift boxes with "exquisite" packaging through workshops and farmers, and regard packaging as "face", and the consumption concept has not completely changed; In order to avoid supervision, some tea operators conduct online transactions through live broadcast, Wechat business and other forms, which is more concealed.

  The market supervision departments in Jiangsu, Fujian, Anhui, Sichuan and other places said that in the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, the work arrangements for law enforcement inspection before and during the festival will be made in advance, the circulation links will be closely watched, the management of commodity packaging will be strictly enforced, and administrative law enforcement will be strengthened to continuously consolidate the governance results.
