Special feature of 1905 film network From the extension of the Spring Festival to the re-release, just as the movie poster wrote, I pursued my "comeback against the wind" with the attitude of "not being optimistic".

It’s not easy to make sports movies, and it’s even harder to make them well.moreoverChina Ping PongWhat I want to tell is the story of China’s competitive sports "Ace Teacher" and the world table tennis overlord. Follow the characters to "cross" back to the moment of preparing for the World Table Tennis Championships 30 years ago, starringTimmy Xu、Duan Bowen、Cai Yida、guansen dingIn an exclusive interview with the 1905 film network, I admitted that, like most viewers, I couldn’t imagine where to start writing, which was enough to match the glory of China men’s table tennis.

In the end, the "Five Tigers" met in the trough before the Jedi counterattack: failure, regret, injury and doubt … … Competitive sports has never been an overnight success. Why can China table tennis become the "strongest king"? They gave the answer with the 1995 World Table Tennis Championships.

Before becoming the "big devil"

The average age of the "Five Tigers" in "China Table Tennis Fight Back" was less than 30 years old when shooting, among which Dong Shuai was even "After 05". Compared with the training in ball skills, it is more important for them to find their own fulcrum close to the role from the real events and prototype characters of the year more quickly and accurately.

At that time, the Five Tigers were a special group of "representatives" of China men’s table tennis. They were not only the strongest players in the whole system, but also the hope and "undertaker" of China table tennis. The five men are different in age and style of play, each with its own characteristics, but the ultimate goal is only one: to help the men’s team play a "turnaround battle" in the shortest time before the World Table Tennis Championships.

It was the most difficult period of table tennis in China. On the one hand, compared with the fast-moving European rivals and the "old rivals" in Asia, our talents had a certain "broken file"; On the other hand, the targeted research on China in tactics by countries all over the world has also made our traditional dominant "first three boards" technology gradually lose its leading position.

The backwardness in concept, experience and training means has made China men’s table tennis fail many times. It was at this time that the "Five Tigers" were assembled by the new coaching staff from all echelons.

Duan Bowen, who plays Huang Zhao, is unanimously recognized as the most similar prototype in China Ping Pong. In order to achieve this effect, he needs to gain 30 pounds while doing a lot of exercise. However, being fat is more than just pursuing superficial "looking like". In the director’s view, this weight has become the "soul" of this role to some extent.

Duan Bowen revealed that Wang Tao played raw rubber backhand, and this time his practice in the film was mainly based on fast break of raw rubber backhand. Nowadays, this technology is not used much in the field, but Wang Tao fought against opponents from all over the world with backhand raw rubber. It is precisely because of "fat" that he has a strong enough core strength to support his own play, and the speed of backhand has become the main "killer" of Huang Zhao in the film.

The similarity between Duan Bowen and the prototype has been recognized by one of the "Five Tigers" and Ma Wenge, the technical director of China Table Tennis. Having really experienced the "lowest period" of China men’s table tennis, the former champion was particularly excited to see this story put on the big screen.

It is an unforgettable and valuable experience for Timmy Xu, who plays this character, to have a prototype directed by the crew at close range.

Before the film was released, his "face-changing" makeup was once on the hot search list, and "I can’t recognize Timmy Xu" became the feeling mentioned by the most viewers. Pull out eyebrows and apply black powder … … However, compared with making an issue of "face", Timmy Xu wants to be closer to the characters from the point of view.

"The change of appearance is only the most basic. The athletes at that time were actually in a different mood from the young people today. I was more (thinking) about feeling their spirit at that time. "

Seeing the "1995 World Table Tennis Championships" again on the set, Ma Wenge, as the technical director, felt that several actors really had the "Five Tigers" status and momentum, and he seemed to recall the feeling of winning every ball in that year. This is the most emotional game: there is excitement in front of the people in my hometown, tension in the face of the final "life and death", and pressure to fight a turnaround for many years.

However, for the actors who experienced this historical moment for the first time and the audience who saw the past behind the Wesling Cup through the lens for the first time, the "Jedi counterattack" presented in China Table Tennis has far exceeded the victory itself.

Looking at this "dream team" that dominates the world, we always have the confidence that "China table tennis will not lose". But at that time, it was more like an endless road and a group of "underdogs" in front of the "Five Tiger Generals". No one knows whether the result of hard work is to win or fail again, so before becoming the "big devil", be an invincible "Xiaoqiang".

It’s never "can’t lose", but it’s not afraid to lose or admit defeat. "If others have practiced for 1000 times, we will practice for 10,000 times", which is the China table tennis spirit that people are most proud of.

Today’s "Ma Long",is the answer of China table tennis for 30 years.

"How far are you from the world champion of the real national team?" During the filming of Ping Pong in China, Ding Guansen, who played the role of Liu Guoliang as the director of his youth in the film, chatted with the members of the second national team who assisted in the filming.

"In my heart, they are already one in a million," Ding Guansen recalled, "but he said,’ Guansen, I tell you, I play with Malone, and you play with Malone, and the result is the same. "Can only score by Malone’s mistakes.

When hearing this sentence, Ding Guansen admitted that he and several other teammates "stood up": "I really realized how cruel competitive sports are. And why can China table tennis be so powerful? Because there have been layers of people trying to go up. "

Ma Wenge, the technical director, including Ding Song and Kong Linghui in the "Five Tigers", once recognized the technical movements of several young people after watching them hit the ball: "The curve and speed of the ball are really real, and the playing posture can’t be exactly the same, but it’s not easy to achieve this level in a short time."

However, during the interview, several young actors "denied" their training achievements for more than 8 months in unison: Do you want to imitate any "killer" in front of the camera?

What I have learned in these months is just the fur in the fur.Through actual combat and training, they actually felt the "China table tennis" inside story, and they also had a completely different understanding of competitive sports and China sports "dream team".

"Director Deng Chao often says that this is not a story about success, but this film is about how to face failure." At the beginning of receiving the project invitation, Timmy Xu, like the vast majority of the audience, could not imagine where the glory of China table tennis should be most convincing.

The special "trough period" 30 years ago became the most suitable entrance.Every word is brilliant, but every word is brilliant: "Only this turnaround in 1995 laid a good foundation for the decades after (China table tennis)." Kong Linghui, who was still a "young player" in the team, said this after learning the story of China Ping-Pong.

Up to now, China has won the Wesling Cup 22 times. In the last 10 World Table Tennis Championships, the China table tennis men’s team has never let this honor fall by.

"Why is table tennis in China prosperous now? It is because so many predecessors were sweating and bleeding at that time, casting our last Great Wall. This history is worth being understood by more people (through this film), and they are the only ones who have table tennis in China now." Ding Guansen regrets.

Competitive sports has never been a smooth sailing "cool article". "When you choose to be an athlete, you choose the most difficult road."

"China Table Tennis" is a complete core of China sports "Dream Team" with its hard work on the field and cruelty outside the field. Now, the success of "Malone" is the most satisfactory answer to China’s ping-pong spirit.

　　Core reading

　　In the first quarter, the national banking insurance supervision system received a total of 22,651 complaints about insurance consumption, which was 9.90% lower than the same period of last year, but it was still running at a high level. The fundamental reason is that insurance companies have not really established the business philosophy of customer first, the awareness of protecting consumers’ rights and interests is weak, the implementation of the main responsibility is not in place, especially the management and control of sales behavior is weak. In this regard, the regulatory authorities have further strengthened the investigation and punishment of misleading insurance sales, organized and carried out "precision strike action", strictly rectified, dealt with quickly, and paid more attention to accountability, played a warning and deterrent role, and better protected the legitimate rights and interests of consumers.

　　Recently, the Insurance Regulatory Commission of the Bank of China, in combination with the evaluation of handling complaints about insurance consumption in 2017, held supervision talks with the principal leaders of 10 insurance companies, including Xinhua Life Insurance, China Life Insurance, People’s Life Insurance, Sunshine Life Insurance, Taikang Life Insurance, Zhonghua Property Insurance, Yongan Property Insurance, Taiping Property Insurance, Yingda Property Insurance and Zhongan Online, which ranked lower in complaint handling evaluation.

　　According to industry insiders, it is the first time that executives of various companies have been interviewed by the regulatory authorities, which reflects the determination of the regulatory authorities to protect consumer rights.

　　In recent years, with the improvement of people’s living standards, insurance products and services not only cover all walks of life, but also go deeper into people’s lives. While residents’ awareness of insurance consumption has been significantly improved, various consumer disputes have followed suit, and consumer complaints have emerged in large numbers.

　　What are the "hot spots" of these complaints? What are the deep-seated problems behind the development of the industry? How to improve? Our reporter interviewed the heads of relevant departments in China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission.

　　Insurance complaints are still running at a high level, and claims disputes and sales disputes are more prominent.

　　The data shows that in the first quarter of this year, the national banking insurance supervision system received a total of 22,651 complaints about insurance consumption, which was 9.90% lower than the same period of last year, but it was still running at a high level. In terms of property insurance, consumer complaints involved 10,944 pieces of property insurance. Among them, there are 8628 claims disputes, accounting for 78.84% of the total property insurance complaints. The claims disputes are still dominated by auto insurance claims, which mainly reflect the disputes over liability identification in the stage of loss determination and compensation, the slow limitation of claims, the disagreement over the amount of claims, the disputes over the reasons for refusing claims, and the claims disputes caused by the failure to explain the obligations of underwriting.

　　In terms of personal insurance, consumer complaints involved 11,707 personal insurances. Among them, there were 4,907 complaints about sales disputes, accounting for 41.92% of the total complaints about personal insurance, which mainly reflected the exaggeration of insurance liability or income, the failure to truthfully explain the important contract contents such as insurance period, consequences of failure to pay fees on time, loss of termination and maturity of payment, and false and untrue propaganda. There were 3246 complaints about claims disputes, accounting for 27.73%, which mainly reflected the disputes about responsibility identification, slow limitation of claims and the amount of claims. There were 1140 complaints about surrender disputes, accounting for 9.74%, mainly reflecting the disputes over surrender amount and the slow time limit for surrender. In terms of types of insurance, complaints about insurance services such as sickness insurance and medical insurance increased significantly, with a year-on-year increase of 41.63%.

　　"The complaint data and the market operation mastered by the regulatory authorities also confirm each other." The relevant responsible comrades in China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission said, "For example, in personal insurance complaints, sales disputes are relatively concentrated. In 2017, complaints caused by insurance sales accounted for 45.60% of personal insurance complaints, and complaints caused by misleading insurance liability or income accounted for more than 80% of sales disputes."

　　"There are many insurance complaints. The fundamental reason is that insurance companies have not really established the business philosophy of customer first, consumers’ awareness of protection of rights and interests is weak, and the implementation of the main responsibility is not in place, especially the management and control of sales behavior is weak." He said that the problem of some insurance companies "focusing on front-end sales but neglecting back-end claims, focusing on performance and neglecting services" is more prominent, and it is difficult to meet the growing insurance demand of consumers. At the same time, some marketers have unilaterally explained product terms and deliberately concealed important contents of insurance contracts, infringing on the right to know and legitimate interests of insurance consumers.

　　"The sales behavior of quick success and instant benefit not only damages the legitimate rights and interests of consumers, but also damages the reputation of insurance institutions and the social image of the industry." The person in charge said.

　　Internet insurance complaints have increased, and flight delay insurance and travel accident insurance are hot spots for complaints.

　　The chronic disease has not been removed, and the troubles are coming again. In recent years, complaints about Internet sales channels have increased rapidly. In 2017, insurance regulators received a total of 4,303 complaints about Internet sales channels, an increase of 52.64% over the same period in 2016. Among them, flight delay insurance, travel accident insurance, return freight insurance and hotel cancellation insurance sold through the Internet are the "hardest hit areas" for complaints.

　　Insiders pointed out that the reason for the surge in Internet insurance complaints is that the sales method is not suitable for fully protecting the legitimate rights and interests of consumers. Different from face-to-face sales, online insurance mostly explains insurance clauses, insurance liabilities and other contents to consumers by means of "tick reading", which easily causes consumers to ignore or misunderstand important information that affects their insurance coverage, leading to contradictions and disputes in later claims settlement. Second, the service package does not match the speed of business development. Online new business has expanded its territory, but there are not enough physical service outlets and personnel to match it offline; The data systems of some third-party Internet platforms are lagging behind, and they can’t be connected with the business systems of insurance companies in real time, resulting in the problems that consumers can’t inquire about insurance policies and enjoy insurance services in time after being insured. Third, when some large Internet platforms cooperate with insurance companies, they are in an advantageous position in terms of capital, information, customer resources, etc. The latter is difficult to effectively control their sales behavior, and it is easy to cause complaints.

　　"There are still some insurance companies that lack the scientificity and rigor of product design and development in pursuit of explosions and eye-catching, which is easy to lead to insurance consumption disputes." China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, the responsible comrade, said that the regulatory authorities have been continuously cracking down on old problems and new problems.

　　On May 28th this year, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission notified the administrative penalty decision of Quanzhou Central Branch of PICC Life Insurance Company. On the one hand, the company deceived the insured, lied that the product was sold within 7 days, and stated that "6% of the latest interest rates of major banks have been killed" and "the company enjoys dividend every year". At the same time, it refused to provide relevant information to the inspection team, which hindered supervision and inspection according to law. To this end, the company was fined 250,000 yuan, and the responsible person was severely dealt with.

　　The regulatory authorities will continue to maintain strict punishment and strict accountability.

　　The main problems of the 10 insurance companies interviewed this time focus on the high number of complaints about insurance consumption, the inadequate implementation of the complaint handling system, and more complaints about sales disputes and claims disputes. In addition to the top leaders, business department heads who caused more complaints were also required to participate in regulatory talks.

　　The responsible persons of the insurance companies interviewed all said that they would strictly implement the regulatory requirements, rectify within a time limit, properly handle complaints and disputes with effective measures, continuously improve their operating level and service quality, and effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers.

　　"To purify the insurance market and protect consumers’ rights and interests, we must fight a tough battle and fight a protracted war." China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, the responsible comrade, said that the regulatory authorities will adhere to the "people-centered" regulatory concept, solidly promote the work of rectifying market chaos, severely investigate and deal with all kinds of illegal acts that harm consumers’ legitimate rights and interests, and continue to strengthen the management of misleading insurance sales and difficult claims.

　　Recently, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, China has further strengthened its efforts to investigate and punish misleading insurance sales, organized a "precision strike operation", strictly rectified, dealt with quickly, and paid more attention to accountability, playing a warning and deterrent role. "The regulatory authorities will continue to maintain a high-pressure situation of strict punishment and strict accountability for violations of laws and regulations, rectify and standardize market order, and better implement the protection of consumers’ legitimate rights and interests, forming a normal state." The person in charge said.

　　Insiders pointed out that after the merger of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, supervision showed stronger execution — — In view of misleading bank insurance sales, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission recently hit a heavy blow. According to the report of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission official website on June 6, the contents of insurance period and annualized rate of return declared by Sunshine Life Insurance when selling products were seriously inconsistent with the provisions of the insurance contract, which deceived the insured, and the illegal acts of Hohhot Jiadi Sub-branch of Bank of China, which allowed the insurance company staff to stay in the office to sell, participate in the bank’s agency insurance sales and "double record" work, Administrative penalties were imposed according to law: the insurance institutions involved were stopped accepting new business from banks for one year and fined 600,000 yuan; the banks involved stopped accepting new business from agency insurance for one year and fined 300,000 yuan; and the relevant responsible persons were also warned and fined.

According to the client news of Henan Daily, the epidemic prevention and control headquarters of Henan Province requires all localities to strictly implement the Administrative Measures for Epidemic Prevention and Control of Health Codes in COVID-19, Henan Province and the rules for assigning and transcoding health codes. Health codes are only used for epidemic prevention and control to serve people’s health, and are never allowed to be used outside the circumstances stipulated by the national and provincial epidemic prevention and control headquarters, and are never allowed to be used in scenes unrelated to epidemic prevention and control, and are never allowed to add or delete the database of health code risk personnel beyond the rules.

The provincial epidemic prevention and control headquarters once again asked all cities and counties to strengthen the management of health codes, and severely dealt with those who caused serious consequences due to improper use of health codes.

　　On December 23rd, the Office of the US Trade Representative announced that it had launched a 301 investigation against the chip industry in China. The target of this survey is mainly the mature process chips in China.

　　In the past few years, we have the impression that the United States is more concerned about advanced process chips. The United States has done the same. From products to technology and manufacturing equipment, every time the United States introduces trade restrictions, it is restricting China from acquiring advanced process chips from different dimensions.

　　But now, America’s goal has changed.

　　How to understand such a change?

　　This time, there are many clues about the changes in the United States in the official notice of the United States launching the 301 investigation.

　　In the notice, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative mentioned that it would investigate whether there is overcapacity in China’s chips and the dependence of downstream industries in the United States on China caused by these chips.

　　The reason why these investigation directions are related to the specific problems that the United States is worried about.

　　Recently, the U.S. government completed a study, and according to the research results, two-thirds of American products use mature process chips from China.

　　For this phenomenon of "dependence" on China chips, the US government has a great anxiety.

　　In the eyes of the US government, the development of China’s chip enterprises not only means that the market share and jobs of American chip enterprises have been "robbed", but also means that China has more chips and "threatens" the safety of the American industrial chain.

　　Therefore, according to the "investigation results", the United States will decide whether to impose tariffs or introduce other measures to prevent China chips from entering the US market.

　　In this way, many people can feel that the American rhetoric is already a cliche — — From the relatively elementary manufacturing industries such as chemicals and textiles in previous years to the electric vehicles in recent two years, as long as China has established an advantage in the global market, the United States has initiated investigations and imposed tariffs on the grounds of "disrupting market order at low prices" and "threatening American economic security".

　　However, after inquiring about the data of China’s export of chips to the United States, Mr. Tan found that things were not so simple.

　　△ Since the export data of December this year has not been released, the statistics have selected the data of the same period in the past ten years.

　　It can be seen that China’s exports of chips to the United States have not changed much in the past three years. In other words, "the United States relies on China’s mature process chips" is not a new phenomenon this year, which is not the time when the United States launched an investigation.

　　And the timeline goes back to 2022 — — At the end of this year, China’s chip exports to the United States gradually stabilized at today’s level. Taking 2022 as the coordinate, and then combing how the United States has discussed mature process chips in these years, we will find that,What really promoted the 301 survey is that the cognition of mature process chips in the United States has changed.

　　American media, American think tanks and American government were selected as the statistical objects. In 2022, there was little discussion about "China mature process chips". This year, Biden’s export control measures have just been introduced, which are full of restrictions on China’s advanced manufacturing processes. Americans also have their own hot spots to catch up with.

　　By the end of 2022, China’s chip exports to the United States have increased by more than 60%, reaching the biggest increase in the past decade. At this time, a different voice appeared.

　　At the beginning of 2023, an American think tank published an article pointing out that the focus of the US government was biased, and they ignored the importance of mature process chips.

　　Tan Zhu noticed that this article pointed out a key problem: it is misleading to divide chips into "advanced process" and "mature process".

　　Unlike many people’s first reaction, "mature process chips" do not use outdated technologies, including new technologies such as silicon carbide, which are all used in mature process chips. At the same time, such chips will be continuously improved to meet new requirements and applications.Therefore, traditional chips are destined to maintain a high degree of correlation with emerging industries and technologies for a long time.

　　Tracing back to the source, the term "mature process chip" was originally a military term. In order to promote the development of military technology, the United States made a distinction between "advanced process chip" and "mature process chip". This distinction has nothing to do with industrial logic.

　　The importance of this article lies in the fact that this cognitive rectification has had an effective impact on the US government:

　　｜｜In January this year, the US-China Special Committee on Strategic Competition of the US House of Representatives sent a letter to the US Department of Commerce and the Office of the US Trade Representative, requesting to launch an investigation into mature process chips in China. This is the starting point of the investigation.

　　｜｜Soon, the US Department of Commerce responded first. This year, the U.S. Department of Commerce launched a research on the basis of the U.S. semiconductor industry. This study draws the conclusion that the United States "depends" on China’s mature process chips through statistics.

　　｜｜Based on the evidence provided by the US-China Special Committee on Strategic Competition and the data studied by the US Department of Commerce, the Office of the US Trade Representative finally decided to launch the 301 investigation.

　　Initially, the US-China Special Committee on Strategic Competition paid attention to the progress of mature process chips in China, largely because it saw this article.

　　In their letters asking the US government to launch an investigation on mature process chips in China, a large number of opinions and data of this article appeared.

　　△ Letter from the "US-China Special Committee on Strategic Competition" requesting an investigation on mature process chips in China.

　　In other words, this 301 survey reflects that the cognition of the relationship between industrial competition and technological progress in the United States is changing. This also makes this 301 survey more symbolic than before.

　　Cao Yun (Former practitioners of chip enterprises in China）：

　　● From the perspective of our industry, technological innovation will be divided into different links to discuss. Now, the improvement of chip production process is the most important, not the innovation of the source.

　　●　The improvement of chip production process is divided into process node improvement, material improvement, yield improvement and detail optimization. As mentioned above, using silicon carbide on mature process chips belongs to material improvement.

　　China has a unique advantage that it has the most comprehensive manufacturing category in the world, which means that we can promote innovation in all processes and links of the chip industry chain.

　　From this point of view, it is unrealistic for the United States to try to block the development of advanced process chips in China and then suppress the whole chip industry in China.

　　Now, the United States is beginning to understand that simply blocking other countries’ access to advanced technology and products in areas where it has technological advantages cannot maintain its advantages for a long time.

　　From this "reflection", we can also better understand the objective law of the development of the chip industry.

　　You can look at such a set of data.

　　In 2024, the US chip market is expected to grow by 23.7% year-on-year. But there are two important driving forces behind this data:

　　In 2024, the global chip market is picking up, and it is expected to increase by 20.7% year-on-year. At the same time, NVIDIA’s revenue in 2024 is expected to increase by over 100% year-on-year, becoming the biggest driving force for the growth of the US chip market.

　　But it also means that most chip companies behind it are "dragging their feet".

　　Master Tan counted the top ten chip companies in the United States except NVIDIA, and found that 80% of them had a revenue growth rate far lower than that of the global chip market this fiscal year. Even, five companies are expected to have negative growth this year.

　　By combing the chip policy of the U.S. government in the past four years, we can see that the thinking of the United States is basically "two-legged": subsidizing American enterprises through the Chip and Science Act, and restricting the export of advanced technologies to curb the development of China enterprises.

　　After four years, obviously, the result is not ideal.

　　US Commerce Secretary Raymond recently said: It is futile to try to contain China. But there is still a half sentence that she failed to say. At the same time, the US government’s assistance policy was not successful. These two factors have jointly caused the dilemma of American chip companies today.

　　The Chip and Science Act was signed in August 2022, but it was not until the end of 2023 that the US government approved the first subsidy. According to relevant disclosures, as many as 40% of large-scale projects have been postponed or stopped indefinitely because of the ineffective promotion of the Chip and Science Law and the Inflation Reduction Law.

　　Not only can the US government not help American companies, but more importantly, this year was originally a year of recovery in the global chip market, and many chip companies are expecting a rebound in profits. However, the "chip method" has become an obstacle to this vision — — The "chip law" has set up protectionist provisions, and accepting subsidies from the United States means giving up markets in other countries.

　　The choice of market is a particularly important issue this year.

　　Professionals told Tan Zhu that a large number of chip companies were pushed to set up factories in the United States through huge subsidies and political pressure, resulting in industrial transfer under non-market conditions, which would lead to increased costs. According to estimates, the cost of opening a new chip factory in the United States is about 30% to 50% higher than that in Asia, which will be shared among chips produced in the United States in the future.

　　In the long run, perhaps the profits of these factories in the future can make up for these costs. But for many companies, they don’t have the luxury to think about the market in 10 years.

　　In the past three years, every year, the global chip market has a new atmosphere:

　　｜｜From 2022 to 2023, the phenomenon of "hoarding goods" first appeared in the global chip market, which promoted enterprises to expand production, and then there was the problem of oversupply.

　　｜｜In 2024, the focus of the global chip market shifted from the previous CPU chip to the GPU chip driven by artificial intelligence.

　　When the wind is high and the waves are urgent, should we choose the mature industrial chain that has been verified in the global chip market, or choose the illusory idea of the US government to build a new industrial chain?

　　Professionals told Tan that the United States interfered with the balance of supply and demand of global chips, and trade disputes would follow. For enterprises, these are risks.

　　The more global scientific and technological innovations emerge and new development opportunities emerge, choosing unknown risks is essentially giving up development opportunities.

　　In other words, the act of reshaping the global chip industry chain has not made the United States more "safe" as the US government said, but has destroyed the market environment on which American enterprises depend for survival and growth.

　　Master Tan once discussed a question with chris miller, the author of Chip Wars. What was the final result of American intervention in the global chip industry chain?

　　Chris miller (American historian, author of Chip Wars.）：

　　●　The most likely situation is that there are more and more "separated" supply chains, which eventually produce completely independent or parallel supply chains. At present, this trend has appeared.

　　●　An obvious impact is that this will lead to inefficiency, and countries will spend a lot of manpower, financial resources and time on the same research. The cost is huge, and the sacrifice of the chip industry is also huge. You know, we could have made progress together and accelerated the development of technology.

　　The peak of human wisdom should have been used to explore the sea of stars. It would be a pity if it was consumed in meaningless competition for the sake of zero-sum game.

　　Not to mention, the way of competition chosen by the United States has been proved to be the wrong way.

　　From 2018 to 2021, American importers paid nearly $123 billion to cover the increased tariff costs. According to the report of the American Chamber of Commerce, if the tariff rate of 25% of the previous administration is continued, the United States will lose $190 billion annually by 2025 and $250 billion annually by 2030, which will make the United States lose nearly $1 trillion in economic growth potential.

　　According to the United States’ own forecast data, by 2029, China will further expand its global market share, accounting for about 50% of the global market for mature process chips.

　　On this basis, the chip will also be related to the normal operation of key industries such as communications, enterprises, electronic equipment and industrial manufacturing in the United States.

　　If the United States imposes tariffs on China chips, it will surely bring huge losses to itself.

　　Not to mention, this time, 301 survey is used, which points to unfair trade in global trade. Professionals told Tan Zhu that in the global chip industry, the United States has the largest subsidy, and the United States is the biggest unfair manufacturer.

　　What the U.S. economy really needs is not to think hard about what kind of China products to suppress, but more importantly, to completely jump out of this thinking and help American enterprises return to the wave of free flow of global trade to find opportunities for growth.

　　For any American government, this is the truth they need to see.

CCTV News:At present, the nucleic acid testing of all staff in Wuhan, Hubei Province is being carried out in an orderly manner. How to finish the task efficiently in the shortest time? The power behind this is not only the concerted efforts of medical staff and citizens to fight the epidemic, but also the "hardcore" technology "weapons" invested by medical institutions and technology enterprises.

At 8 o’clock in the evening, more than 200 people in Longyang Street, Hanyang District were waiting in line to do nucleic acid. Liu Zhilian, the person in charge of the scene, had a special interview during the busy interval.

Wu Hui, who came for an interview, has 11 years’ experience as a nurse, and she is eager to participate in this epidemic.

Volunteer Wu Hui:Although I have left the hospital now, I think we need to come forward and contribute our little strength in this epidemic.

Because of her rich experience, Wu Hui passed the interview. She immediately put on a red vest and prepared for tomorrow’s nucleic acid test with other volunteers. In more than 2,800 sampling points in Wuhan, there are still many "uninvited" volunteers like Wu Hui.

In Donghu Road community nucleic acid testing point, every resident has a special guide when testing nucleic acid.

Li Feng, the fourth-level director of the directly under the authority Working Committee Office of Hubei Provincial Party Committee:I started to make preparations at 6 o’clock in the morning and worked until the early morning. Last night, I worked until nearly 12 o’clock.

The strength of science and technology is also helping the whole staff to detect nucleic acids. Ms. Wu of Donghu community felt a robot doing nucleic acids.

Ms. Wu, a resident of Donghu Community in Wuhan:It will move left and right, then turn around, and you will obviously feel something circling in the upper part of your throat.

This is the first mobile nucleic acid detection vehicle in Hubei. The robotic arm equipped with artificial intelligence algorithm collects one sample in one minute, and can detect nucleic acid of 24 samples at the same time, and the results can be obtained within 45 minutes at the earliest.

Li Yirong, Director of Laboratory of Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University:The traditional PCR technology is divided into three temperatures to amplify it (sample), which means that it takes time for the instrument to switch between the three temperatures, but it only has a temperature of 60, so it can shorten the time.

Tengshi DENZA, a joint venture brand between BYD and Daimler, launched its brand and concept car at the Beijing Auto Show last year. The production model will be launched this year, and the debut of the production model is likely to be at the Shanghai Auto Show in April. A few days ago, we once again obtained the spy photos of the test car of Tengshi DENZA, and with the passage of time, more details gradually became clear.

[The taillights and headlights in the production version have clear outlines, which are obviously different from the concept headlights. The charging socket is hidden under the sealed cover plate in the middle of the air intake grille]

Although the taillights of the production model are temporary light groups like the headlights, the contours have become clear, which is very obvious from the design of the light groups of the concept car. However, the outline of the car body is basically similar, and it adopts a pattern similar to a hatchback and a half. From the side, it is a hatchback model, and the wide C-pillar and the tail box are completely integrated. But from the tail, it is basically a sedan version, with the rear windshield concave, and the trunk is the same as the sedan, with only the trunk lid and the rear windshield fixed.

The side door is still a conventional open design, rather than a concept car split structure. The charging socket is hidden under the sealed cover plate in the middle of the air intake grille. According to the information we have before, the DENZA model does not use the old Mercedes-Benz B-Class platform as reported earlier. For example, the rear suspension system is a torsion beam non-independent suspension, while the Mercedes-Benz B-Class does have a multi-link independent suspension structure. At this point, it is also different from BYD’s own E6 pure electric vehicle, which is also a multi-link independent rear suspension structure.

Previously, the spy photos of the central control panel of DENZA model and the integrated multimedia system panel with black piano paint have been exposed. However, it is not a sci-fi suspended central control panel that can slide horizontally on the concept car. The production model also does not use the camera-type exterior rearview mirror on the concept car. However, the newly exposed gearbox gear lever area is still very scientific and technological, which should be the same as E6 pure electric vehicle. The so-called gearbox gear lever is mainly an adjustment switch of motor drive mode, including four different gears: R, N, D and P. However, the gear of DENZA model adopts a design similar to Lexus’ Remote Touch, like a floating mouse. At the front of it is a water cup holder with a hole.

As a joint venture brand between BYD and Daimler, DENZA’s future is still difficult to determine. Obviously, both manufacturers have left their own hands. Daimler’s aim is to fully absorb the global technical resources of electric vehicles in the new energy era. Not only did Daimler cooperate with BYD, but also took a stake in Tesla, a famous American electric vehicle manufacturer, and the cooperation was further deepened, applying its electric vehicle technology to its own Mercedes-Benz brand models.

Daimler walks on two legs, and the cooperation enthusiasm with Tesla is higher. It is still difficult to determine whether the DENZA model jointly invested with BYD can go to overseas markets as expected. However, it is obvious that BYD has left a back road for itself, and the purpose of cooperation with Daimler is more to grasp the automobile manufacturing standards faster and more accurately, with a view to greatly improving its own car-making technology.

At the same time, BYD’s own electric vehicle technology is still being continuously developed and improved. For example, the bidirectional inverter charging and discharging technology is its latest research and development achievement. Many new modes, such as "vehicle-to-grid mode", electric vehicles can not only charge through the grid, but also feed electricity back to the grid; "Car-to-car mode" can realize mutual charging between electric vehicles. It integrates the functions of drive motor, vehicle charger and DC charging station, which greatly reduces the investment of professional charging stations, simplifies the charging standard and can easily adapt to the power supply situation in different markets.

In February, Sohu Auto first exposed the first spy photos of BYD Daimler Electric Vehicle Joint Venture Company. Last week, Sohu Auto once again exposed the product logo of BYD-Daimler joint venture company and the possible Chinese name. Today, Sohu Auto brings you the interior of the first new car of this joint venture company. Similarly, this is the first time that this new car interior has appeared in the public eye.

Denza new carInterior first exposure and cashMercedes-benz class bStyle approximation

The spy photos of the car’s appearance show that the first model of the joint venture between BYD and Daimler is code-named PT1, which we will call it hereinafter.

From the interior spy photos, the overall interior style design of PT1 is highly similar to that of Mercedes-Benz B-Class, and the design from instrument to center console is almost the same. It’s just that the LED display screen installed on the center console is expected to have a size of 7 inches, which makes the whole interior show the difference and reflects more sense of science and technology. The interior of the whole car adopts the color matching of black on the top and rice on the bottom, which is a common color matching, and the middle is inlaid with mahogany decorative strips, which is suitable for the style of the family car.

Although the new car adopts the consistent steering wheel design of BYD in recent years, it is learned from insiders that the steering wheel installed on the test car does not belong to PT1, but is borrowed from BYD. In the future, the steering wheel of PT1 may adopt a brand-new design. Due to the tight camouflage of the test car, we can’t see other details of the interior.

Along with the exposure of the interior, there is also a clearer photo of the front face. Through it, we also know more specifically the specific appearance of the front face design of this model. Because it is an electric vehicle, the size requirement of the air inlet of the vehicle is not so high, so there is a large area of decorative plate in the middle of the air intake grille of PT1, and the new logo of the joint venture company is in the center of the decorative plate.

The bumper design of the new car doesn’t have much brilliance, but although it is an electric car, it still has a large air intake on the bumper. It seems that its front face is no different from that of an ordinary gasoline car.

Power system or source e6,baseNot completely copiedb grade

Through the appearance we have exposed and the interior spy photos of this exposure, I believe that we have a relatively emotional understanding of PT1. Then, what is the relationship between the powertrain and chassis of this model and the two companies?

Whether PT1′ s power system completely copied BYD e6′ s power system has not been confirmed, but according to insiders, the car’s battery system is closely related to BYD e6. That is to say, at least the battery system of this model comes from BYD’s iron battery system. BYD started with the battery business, which is exactly their strength.

Although we have basically confirmed that this new car is based on Mercedes-Benz B-Class, we found through spy photos that the rear suspension of the test car is obviously different from the current Mercedes-Benz B-Class. Mercedes-Benz Class B is a multi-link independent rear suspension, while PT1′ s rear suspension is a torsion beam semi-independent suspension. The main reason for the change of rear suspension may still be based on cost considerations. Due to the high battery cost of electric vehicles, in other aspects, cost optimization is a must.

After communicating with relevant people, we learned that the PT1 motor, battery and electronic control (the three core components of electric vehicles) are all BYD’s, and its body will be slightly longer than Mercedes-Benz B, and some of its technologies are indeed similar to BYD e6, but it has also been greatly improved.

At the end of this month, BYD-Daimler joint venture company (the new joint venture company is just a research and development center because it has no production qualification) will soon release a brand-new brand and logo, and the English official website of the company can be linked at present. Although it can be linked, it is not known whether the website content is the final confirmation version). The first model of the joint venture company, PT1, will be exhibited at the Beijing Auto Show next month, when we can read the true face of Lushan Mountain.

　　This year is a highlight year in the history of marathon. On October 12, Kenyan male athlete Kipkog broke the human limit in Vienna and successfully ran into the two-hour marathon. On October 13th, Kenyan woman Bridget Koschi broke the world best result in the women’s marathon, which has been maintained for 16 years, in Chicago. In the 39th Beijing Marathon, which ended on November 3rd, the men’s race record was also refreshed again.

　　In recent years, the number of marathon events and various road running events has been blowout. With the participation of more and more people, road running has gradually become an urban culture that leads the national fitness trend.

　　According to the Business Value Report of Sports Industry in China, among the sports that people often participate in, running ranks among the best with 43% participation. Road running, represented by marathon, has become one of China people’s favorite fitness exercises and an important platform for national fitness. In 2018, the total number of participants in the national marathon and related events was 5.83 million, an increase of 4.33 million over 2015.

　　A group of statistics released by IAAF on amateur runners and runners around the world in June this year show that in the past 10 years, only about 12% of all runners took part in marathon (marathon duration is 42.195 kilometers), while the number of people who took part in half marathon (hereinafter referred to as "half horse") kept increasing, accounting for about 30%. The "5 km" has the largest number of participants, accounting for about 35% of all runners. In China, the scale of road runners is also growing.

　　So "5 km", "10 km", "half horse" and "whole horse", which event is suitable for you and how to run healthier? On November 2nd, more than 50 people, including leaders of more than 20 national road running/marathon trade associations and runners from Beijing, Inner Mongolia, Anhui, Jilin, Hebei, Jiangsu, Shandong, Shanxi, Shaanxi and Jiangxi, gathered in Beijing to participate in the symposium on "Marathon and Great Health" jointly held by "Healthy China" edition of China Youth Daily and Beijing Marathon Association. Participants discussed the relationship between road running and personal health, marathon and industry health, and marathon and social health atmosphere from the perspectives of education, medicine, media communication and the development of road running industry, so as to convey the concept of scientific fitness to fitness enthusiasts.

　　Marathon is an extreme sport, and every participant should treat it with caution.

　　There are probably the following motivations for people to participate in road running: at the physiological level, in order to keep healthy or lose weight; On the psychological level, in order to increase self-confidence, pursue the meaning of life and cope with negative emotions, gain a sense of accomplishment in competing with others and achieving personal goals; At the social level, I hope to associate with others and get recognition.

　　From illness to running 59 marathons (including 22 "all horses"), Wen Caifeng, a runner over 50 years old, started running for health. Because of encephalitis, she was once "immune" in college. After graduation, she went from sub-health to minor illness, and then she was hospitalized almost every year. Wen Caifeng realized that hospitals can only treat diseases and only exercise can make herself healthy, so she started running and ran into the marathon. Wen Caifeng’s running goal for himself is "no injury, longer, faster and healthier".

　　How to know the marathon, and what are the misunderstandings of the public about the marathon? Zhao Fuming, president of Beijing Marathon Association, said that people who never run talk about "horses", while some enthusiasts will excessively pursue personal best (PB). "First of all, we should realize that as amateur runners, we are far away from competitive sports. Even those who have the best performance among runners should also realize the gap and not aim too high; Secondly, it should be Do not forget your initiative mind. When running, ensuring health is the top priority, without affecting normal work and life, scientific fitness, and enjoying a healthier life through exercise. " Zhao Fuming believes that the marathon itself is an extreme sport, and every participant should be treated with caution.

　　Sports medicine experts teach you how to run safer.

　　Zhu Jingxian, a medical supervisor and sports physician in Peking University Institute of Sports Medicine, started with the case of sudden death in a marathon and analyzed who was not suitable for running a marathon. She warned everyone to run scientifically and safely, and to keep running for health.

　　"Marathon is a typical extreme challenge project, and its first finisher died suddenly at the finish line, which is enough to show us the risks of this sport. However, it is also a sport full of challenges and enjoyment. Regular running will make the brain secrete more dopamine and endorphins, which will make people happy and even ‘ Addiction ’ 。” Zhu Jingxian said.

　　According to incomplete statistics, since 2014, more than 20 runners in China have died suddenly in the "Half Horse" or "All Horse" race or after the race. Foreign literature statistics show that the incidence of sudden death in marathon is 0.6/100,000-1.9/100,000, while in China, the incidence of sudden cardiac death in the whole population is 41.84/100,000, which is much higher than that in horse racing. Zhu Jingxian believes that "we can do more work to further avoid tragedies, and nip in the bud is the key."

　　Zhu Jingxian said that people with cardiopulmonary diseases and potential heart diseases are not recommended to participate in the competition. How to find potential heart diseases, such as congenital heart disease and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, is the key to reduce sudden cardiac death during or after the game. "We suggest that the contestants go to a regular hospital for the following examinations before the competition: electrocardiogram, echocardiography and cardiopulmonary exercise experiment. Physical examination before the game is very important. " Zhu Jingxian said.

　　Secondly, the contestants need to run step by step before the race, and regular running habits are the basis to ensure the completion of the marathon. "Generally speaking, people who have never run for a long distance, even if their physical fitness is good, are not recommended to participate in the marathon. For the first time, a strange sports event is prone to sports rhabdomyolysis, and in severe cases, renal failure may occur. " Zhu Jingxian said that for the first-time marathon runners, only after completing the running training equivalent to the whole marathon distance before the competition can they better play their level in the official competition, and at the same time reduce the risks of sports injuries and sudden death. Amateur masters who have participated in many marathons should also be careful not to blindly pursue achievements. "You should pay attention to your feelings in the race. If you are unwell, stop the race in time and seek medical support. If you stay up late, catch a cold and are in poor health before the game, it is recommended to give up the game. "

　　"The most prone to cardiac arrest is the runner whose pace (a concept often used in marathon training, which refers to the time required for a runner to run 1 kilometer) is between 5 minutes and 6 minutes and 30 seconds, that is, ‘ Quanma ’ The competition takes 3.5 -4.5 hours ‘ Amateur master ’ . 52% of cardiac arrest occurred in the last 10 kilometers of the marathon. " Zhu Jingxian said.

　　The common sports injuries in running are mostly concentrated in hips, knees and ankles. Dr. Zhu reminded runners to do what they can. "For short-term injuries, they can be cured through rest and physical compensation; Reversible long-term damage can be cured by drug therapy+physical factor therapy+rehabilitation training; However, for irreversible long-term damage, surgery is needed, and it may also cause permanent functional loss. "

　　Dr. Zhu Jingxian reminded runners: nutritional supplements at ordinary times, before, during and after the game should be paid enough attention; Running equipment should be based on ensuring safety, and it is not expensive to be right. Finally, she particularly emphasized that muscle strength training is very important for runners. "Muscle strength is the armor that protects joints and the cornerstone of PB."

　　The road running industry is in its infancy and full of opportunities.

　　Zhu Donghui, secretary of the Party Committee of Beijing No.3 Middle School, is also a marathon runner. Together with the headmaster of No.3 Middle School who is also a runner, he has formed a 70-person teachers’ running group and has participated in several events organized by Beijing Marathon Association. At the same time, the school also designed a 3 km -10 km running training plan for students of different ages. "The sense of accomplishment of students holding special medals after the game is more effective than any kind of verbal mobilization. It is our ultimate goal to cultivate students’ healthy habits through the guidance of teachers. Running is a lifelong benefit, and I believe that running students can also influence parents and friends around them. " Zhu Donghui said.

　　Road running industry associations and various running groups all over the country are grass-roots organizations that undertake and lead the vast number of road running people. Zhao Fuming believes that at present, the road running industry is in its infancy and has good development opportunities.

　　In this year’s National Day mass parade, Beijing Marathon Association organized more than 200 members to participate in the first set-up running group phalanx. Up to now, Beijing Marathon Association has hosted, undertaken and co-organized 13 events, conducted 1,140 public welfare trainings and 20 certification trainings, with about 58,000 participants, covering the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.

　　How should local trade associations achieve healthy development? Zhao Fuming believes that the nature and positioning of industry associations should be clarified; Form a work team with common goals; Implement valuable work items; In line with the national strategy of healthy China, it is the key to actively cooperate with government policies and requirements.

　　Create a social atmosphere of scientific movement and healthy life

　　Hou Pengcheng, director of the Beijing Sports Federation Office, said that one of the functions of the Beijing Sports Federation is to strengthen the function of social organizations to lead the national fitness and activate the vitality of social organizations. As the organizer of the half-horse race in Beijing Park, the Beijing Sports Association is most concerned about the running safety and the health problems caused by it. The social atmosphere of healthy running is created by every runner. "The theme of this conference is to make scientific fitness the top priority in every runner’s mind. Don’t just throw yourself into a sport with cool fashion or beautiful equipment, but slowly integrate into it on the basis of fully understanding the risks, advantages and disadvantages of the project."

　　Hou Pengcheng suggested that runners should be responsible for their own health, combine their own characteristics and learn from others’ experience in running, and form the habit of lifelong exercise.

　　Xu Zhengbiao, deputy head of Huai ‘an Running Group in Jiangsu Province, and Lei Huashou, chairman of Nanchang Athletics Association, shared local experience in carrying out activities at the meeting. Cen Chuanli, honorary president of Beijing Marathon Association and former editor-in-chief of CCTV Sports Channel, made an analysis from the perspective of media promotion of running and great health. He thought, "Create a ‘ Scientific movement and healthy life ’ A good atmosphere is the responsibility of the media to serve the public. "

The fourth in a series of reports on China’s new measures to expand and open up.
Foreign trade innovation measures make opening up benefit the world

On April 10th, the Supreme Leader of president, China attended the opening ceremony of the 2018 annual meeting of Boao Forum for Asia and delivered a keynote speech. The Chairman of the Supreme Leader announced the major measures that China will take in opening wider to the outside world. The Supreme Leader pointed out that China does not aim at pursuing a trade surplus, and sincerely hopes to expand imports and promote the balance of current account.

In recent years, the China government has always attached importance to changing the development mode of foreign trade, not aiming at the pursuit of trade surplus, promoting the balanced development of foreign trade, actively expanding imports, and continuously improving the breadth and depth of market opening.

Taking the initiative to expand imports as one of the four major measures to open wider to the outside world, this innovation in foreign trade practice once again shows the world China’s determination and confidence to actively open up to the outside world, which is generally welcomed by the international community. International public opinion believes that China’s clear release of such a positive import policy signal shows China’s responsibility for maintaining the process of globalization and free trade.

This year will be the first year to expand imports.

"2018 will be the first year for China to expand imports." Lu Jinyong, a professor at university of international business and economics Institute of International Economics and Trade, judged this. He believes that the policy information on "expanding imports" released by the Chairman of the Supreme Leader in the keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the 2018 annual meeting of Boao Forum for Asia is positive and clear.

A series of actions, such as reducing tariffs, increasing the import of products with distinctive advantages, accelerating the process of joining the World Trade Organization’s Agreement on Government Procurement, and holding the first China International Import Expo, show that China is starting from the direction of policy strength, taxation and building an international trade platform to expand imports.

In terms of tariffs, in recent years, China has substantially reduced import tariffs on some products. According to the data of the Ministry of Commerce, as of January 11th, 2018, China has achieved zero tariff on more than 8,000 kinds of imported products. Taking agricultural products as an example, the import tariff of red wine in Georgia and Chile has been reduced from 14% to 30% to zero. Taking industrial products as an example, the import tariffs on some Swiss watches have been reduced by 50%; South Korea’s import tariffs on refrigerators, rice cookers and other products have been reduced by 40%, and will be reduced to zero tariffs in a few years. Gao Feng, a spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce, said that products with nearly one-third of China’s total imports can enjoy preferential tariff treatment in the FTA, most of which are end consumer goods.

China has also actively guided the import of products with distinctive advantages. On May 1st this year, China abolished import tariffs on 28 drugs, including anticancer drugs, and encouraged the import of innovative drugs. Experts in the industry have assessed that the import of anti-cancer drugs is expected to achieve a price reduction of at least 20% after comprehensive consideration of measures such as zero tariff on imports, reduction of VAT tax burden and centralized government procurement. This means that the cost of importing anticancer drugs from China market can be greatly reduced, and the drug quality and legal problems caused by "Haitao route" can be avoided.

Experts pointed out that the import trade platform that China is building mentioned by the Supreme Leader in his speech on April 10th will be an important support for China to actively expand imports. In this regard, Xing Yuqing, a professor at the National Policy Research Institute of Japan, said that China will expand its domestic market, build a larger import platform, greatly reduce tariff and non-tariff barriers, and lower the threshold for foreign investment to enter oil refining, communications, finance and Internet services, which will bring new growth impetus and source to China’s economy. He said: "I believe that many enterprises in China will win the competition with foreign capital. An open China will become a defender of the fairness and stability of the international trade order. "

Increasing imports and promoting consumption return

On the second day of the May Day holiday, Wang Lewei, a resident of Shilibao, Chaoyang District, Beijing, and his family came to the nearby box horse fresh supermarket. Australian lobster, French oysters, Russian king crab, Norwegian arctic cod … are not only rich in variety, but also affordable. Wang Lewei’s family enjoyed a delicious imported seafood dinner. "Before I wanted to eat imported seafood, I had to go to a big hotel, which was expensive. Now I can feast my eyes on it in the supermarket. It feels great."

Thanks to the development of new formats such as cross-border e-commerce and the reduction of import tariffs, more and more high-quality consumer goods from all over the world have entered China. "Easy to buy the world" has brought convenience and dividends to consumers. "Expanding imports has limited impact on domestic consumer goods. More importantly, in the long run, expanding imports is of great significance for promoting industrial transformation and promoting consumption upgrading. " Zhao Ping, director of the International Trade Research Department of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, said.

Huang Songping, spokesman of the General Administration of Customs, said that this year, we will reduce the import tariffs on automobiles by a considerable margin, and at the same time reduce the import tariffs on some other products, and strive to increase the import of featured and advantageous products with concentrated demand from the people. Lu Jinyong believes that moderately expanding imports can promote and promote the high-quality development of China’s economy in many ways.

"Some imported consumer goods are not available in China before, which may refresh domestic consumer awareness and drive domestic related industries to achieve progress from scratch." Ye Changqing, Marketing Director of Shenzhen Baoshijie Sanitary Ware, said that a few years ago, many domestic consumers didn’t know about smart toilet seats, and most domestic manufacturers OEM for foreign brands, with few independent brands. Later, with the increase in the import of smart toilet seats, the awareness of domestic consumers is getting higher and higher, and the demand is constantly being released. Many domestic smart toilet seat manufacturers not only have their own brands, but even set up R&D centers in Japan.

In addition, expanding imports will help to keep a large amount of outflow consumption at home.

In 2016, China has become the world’s largest outbound tourism source market and the largest outbound tourism consumer. According to the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Commerce, according to preliminary estimates, at present, Chinese residents spend about $200 billion a year shopping abroad, and the shopping list includes a large number of high-end goods and daily consumer goods. The price difference between domestic and foreign products is the main reason for consumption outflow.

With the implementation of China’s measures to expand imports, this trend is changing.

"It’s much more convenient to buy imported goods than before." Li Li, an employee of an Internet company in Zhongguancun, Beijing, often buys imported snacks, toys and daily necessities for her children. A few years ago, she either made a big purchase when she went abroad, or entrusted a friend who went abroad to buy it. Nowadays, with cross-border e-commerce, most of the "explosive" imported goods can be easily bought.

Liu Dingming, general manager of Sichuan Hezhongxing International Logistics Co., Ltd., who is engaged in import and export business, believes that lowering tariffs has created conditions for expanding imports of consumer goods and lowering commodity prices, and consumers will directly benefit from it. At present, there are more than 50 merchants imported through the company’s logistics platform, and the goods mainly enter community stores and cooperative O2O stores. "In the future, people will buy some imported goods, and the price will be more favorable."

Zhang Jun, chief economist of Morgan Stanley Huaxin Securities, believes that in the process of economic restructuring in China, in order to achieve consumption upgrading and industrial upgrading, it is an inevitable trend to expand imports. With the increase of residents’ income, the demand for overseas high-end consumer goods is rising, and the corresponding reduction of tariffs on high-end consumer goods can meet the demand brought by this consumption upgrade.

In the context of expanding imports, it is promising to strengthen the docking of domestic and international markets. Zhao Ping said that in November, the first China International Import Expo will be held in Shanghai, which is a major policy announcement and action of our initiative to open the market. For domestic governments and enterprises at all levels, this grand event can also form a positive demonstration effect, create more convenient and diverse display channels for imported products, and better serve China consumers.

Innovative measures bring more "China opportunities"

Practice has proved that China’s expansion of imports not only promotes the sustained and healthy development of the capital market and modern industrial system, but also greatly improves the market environment in China, and brings huge market opportunities to all countries in the world.

Su Jian, executive deputy director of Peking University Economic Research Institute, pointed out that in the 2018 government work report, the expression of expanding imports was "actively expanding imports", while the Boao Forum focused on "actively expanding imports". Higher import tariffs and other taxes and fees are important factors that affect China’s import growth. It can be expected that the reduction of import tariffs will make imports grow considerably.

"China’s expansion of imports is not only conducive to better meeting domestic demand, but also conducive to the world sharing China market opportunities." Huang Zhilong, director of the Macroeconomic Center of Suning Financial Research Institute, believes that China has become the second largest economy in the world, with huge potential in the consumer market. It has taken the initiative to expand imports, which reflects the responsibility of a big country and can bring more development achievements and dividends to the world. For other countries, the increase of China’s imports means the increase of their exports, thus gaining more market returns and creating more employment opportunities.

"China has never taken the pursuit of trade surplus as the goal, but has tried to expand imports through a series of pragmatic measures to promote the balance of current account." Zhao Ping said that according to the data of the Ministry of Commerce, up to now, there are 15 free trade agreements in force in China, involving 23 countries and regions, covering more than 8,000 kinds of zero-tariff imported products.

International public opinion has also responded positively to China’s measures to expand imports.

The US "Wall Street Journal" reported that the Chairman of the Supreme Leader promised China to relax its market access in the fields of finance and manufacturing, which shows that China is committed to defending the free trade system. This information pushed up the global stock market.

Craig emerson, former Australian Trade Minister, believes that the world is encouraged by the Supreme Leader’s proposal that China will take the initiative to expand imports. The first China International Import Expo to be held this year will further prove that China welcomes competitive goods.

Hu Yishan, chief consultant of Malaysia Pacific Research Center, believes that the Chairman of the Supreme Leader announced a series of measures to open the market and expand imports, which made neighboring countries including Malaysia sincerely agree. It is hoped that China will continue to hold high the banner of free trade, oppose trade protectionism and safeguard the authority of the multilateral trading system in the face of rising protectionism and anti-globalization.
