  The agricultural output value has increased, and Zhaoqing has shown a new trump card.

  Zhaoqing City, with superior location and developed traffic, is adjacent to Foshan, Guangzhou. It is the pilot area of Guangdong facing the hub and gateway city of Southwest China, and it is also one of the most promising areas in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Some agricultural products in Zhaoqing have gradually become famous abroad, becoming popular all over the country and going international. Taking Deqing Citrus as an example, in November 2021, RCEP Citrus International Purchasing and Trading Center landed in Deqing, Guangdong; In December 2021, Deqing Gonggan was first exported to Thailand, a member of RCEP; In January, 2022, Deqing Gonggan passed the EU’s good agricultural practices certification and was officially exported to Vietnam, Cambodia and other countries, becoming the first Guangdong fruit to catch a ride with RCEP. Besides, Sihui Orchid is another "trump card" in Zhaoqing. In May this year, Sihui actively deployed the construction of "12221" market system, and took the lead in launching the "12221" marketing campaign of orchids in the whole province. Under the influence of strong publicity in the early stage, the sales volume of orchids in Sihui in June this year increased by three times compared with the same period of last year, and the unit price increased by nearly 50%.

  Create a brand of prefabricated vegetables and create a model of new farmers.

  Speaking at the meeting, Lu Kaichao, director of the Agricultural Office of Zhaoqing Municipal Committee, party secretary and director of the Municipal Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau, and director of the Municipal Rural Revitalization Bureau, said that the next work direction of Zhaoqing Agricultural and Rural Affairs Bureau is threefold: to brand "Xiaozhao serving" prefabricated vegetables and vigorously promote the high-quality development of Zhaoqing prefabricated vegetables industry; Introduce the new farmer policy, create a new farmer model, implement 101 new farmers this year, play an exemplary role, and lead the rural revitalization and development with new farmers; The agricultural investment policy was introduced, and the construction of local leading enterprises in Zhaoqing was promoted through the agriculture+enterprise model. The industry of workers and peasants complemented each other and kept pace. At the same time, the next focus of Zhaoqing’s agriculture is to make Zhaoqing’s agricultural products brand bigger, stronger and louder under the construction of Guangdong’s "12221" agricultural products market system; Promote the construction of Zhaoqing Harvest Festival, show Zhaoqing’s rich agricultural products to the whole country and the world, and tell Zhaoqing’s agricultural story well.

  Wen Tianwei, member of the Standing Committee of Sihui Municipal Committee and Minister of Propaganda Department, said that with the full guidance and support of the provincial department, Sihui used 50 days to build the county IP "Father loves like a orchid" and successfully made a circle, setting a model of Sihui for cultural empowerment of agricultural brands. Next, Sihui will continue to strengthen the construction of talent team and focus on cultivating talents for planting, sales and live broadcasting; Strengthen the inheritance and construction of orchid culture, and promote the high-quality development of the combination of orchids and cultural tourism in Sihui; Strengthen the extension and construction of orchid industrial chain, and enhance the added value through deep processing of orchids; Strengthen the construction of orchid development policy, expand orchid planting area and land, and build an industrial park; Strengthen the construction of "the hometown of China’s father orchids" and tell the story of Sihui orchids well.

  Tang Ying, executive deputy director of the Agriculture Office of Zhaoqing Municipal Committee, deputy secretary of the Party Group of the Municipal Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau and executive deputy director of the Municipal Rural Revitalization Bureau, said that the "12221" marketing project of Sihui Orchid needs to be further promoted for a long time; Sihui should learn from the successful experience of RCEP of other agricultural products and vigorously promote the RCEP export project of Sihui orchids.

  Play the four agricultural cards well and implement the "12221" market system

  The person in charge of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs said that in order to promote, explore and build the high-quality development of Zhaoqing agriculture, we must play the four cards of "marketization, internationalization, digitalization and industrialization". To play a good market card, the most important thing is to grasp the relationship between supply and demand of agricultural products in Zhaoqing, take price as the core, put the market ahead of production, and pay attention to market production; To play an international brand well, the most important thing is to realize the geographical nature of agricultural products, sell Chinese fruits abroad, and maximize the value of agricultural products; To play a good digital card, the most important thing is to recognize the digital characteristics of the digital age, make full use of big data empowerment, insert digital wings for agricultural products, fly to the whole country and go global; To play a good industrial card, the most important thing is to grasp agriculture with industrial thinking, extend the industrial chain and value chain with industrial thinking and industrial model, turn agricultural raw materials into necessities in industrial life, and realize the value change of agricultural products.

  At the same time, the person in charge of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of Guangdong Province pointed out that this series of figures for the construction of the "12221" market system for orchids in Sihui highly condensed the experience and practice of the construction of the agricultural product market system in Guangdong: namely, around the package goals of increasing farmers’ income, industrial efficiency and local development in Sihui, the "1" orchid big data platform was launched, and "2" teams of buyers and brokers in sales areas were formed to expand sales areas and production areas. Plan the "2" activities of buyers entering the producing areas and agricultural products entering the big market, and realize the "1" goals of brand building, sales promotion, market guidance, variety improvement and farmers getting rich. The brand building of Sihui Orchid can stand in a higher international perspective and be compared with the tulip in the Netherlands — — Take the efforts of the whole province to turn "orchids" into "tulips" and let Sihui orchids go global.

  Promote the new development of agriculture and embark on the road of revitalizing Zhaoqing’s characteristic villages

  After the meeting, Lu Kaichao said in an interview: "In fact, there are few agricultural investment policies in China, and it is the first case in Guangdong. Under the great attention of Zhaoqing Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, our Agricultural and Rural Bureau has drafted the first draft of agricultural investment promotion policy. This is based on two basic conditions: on the one hand, Zhaoqing is a big agricultural city, and we have six leading industries: rice, fruits, vegetables, aquatic products, animal husbandry and pesticides, all of which have a fairly solid foundation; On the other hand, Zhaoqing City has an empty foundation, but it lacks the corresponding leading agricultural enterprises to drive development. Based on this, we intend to attract investment in agriculture, introduce policies to support the growth of local enterprises, attract foreign capital to develop, promote the formation, development and gathering of leading enterprises, and promote the high-quality development of Zhaoqing agriculture. "

  Lu Kaichao also said: "Now vigorously developing rural revitalization, we must start from two aspects, not only to maintain the amount of cultivated land and grain production in rural areas, but also to maintain the market development and consumption demand of cities, so as to complement each other and enrich the people and industries. Only by developing modern agriculture based on Zhaoqing’s characteristics, grasping modern agriculture with industrial thinking, and playing the four cards of marketization, internationalization, digitalization and industrialization can we finally get out of the road of revitalization of Zhaoqing’s characteristic villages.

Scientific and technological innovation leads the high-quality development of manufacturing industry

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that "the high-quality development of manufacturing industry is the top priority of the high-quality development of China’s economy" and "we should base ourselves on the existing industrial base, solidly promote the high-quality development of advanced manufacturing industry, accelerate the upgrading of traditional manufacturing industry, and give play to the incremental role of scientific and technological innovation". The Decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Further Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese Modernization, adopted by the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, made special arrangements for accelerating new industrialization and cultivating and expanding advanced manufacturing clusters, and clearly put forward "establishing a mechanism to maintain a reasonable proportion of manufacturing investment". All these have pointed out the way and direction for leading the high-quality development of manufacturing industry with scientific and technological innovation. Today, scientific and technological innovation permeates all factors of productivity and is running through the whole process of manufacturing, giving birth to new industries, new models and new kinetic energy, and empowering the manufacturing industry to develop towards high-end, intelligent and green. In the face of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, we must do a good job in scientific and technological innovation, transform and upgrade traditional industries, cultivate and expand emerging industries, lay out and build future industries, improve the modern industrial system, and lead the high-quality development of manufacturing industry.

  Focus on transformation and upgrading to support the transformation of traditional industries.

  Traditional manufacturing industry is the base of modern industrial system, plays a vital role in the national economic system, and is the basis to meet people’s growing needs for a better life. However, the problem of "big but not strong" and "all but not refined" in China’s traditional industries is still outstanding, and the problems of low-end oversupply and high-end shortage coexist. Therefore, we should accelerate the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, improve the "advanced nature" of traditional industries, and form new kinetic energy for development.

  To transform and upgrade traditional industries, we must make full use of the key measure of high-level technological transformation and improve the system and mechanism to enhance the leading position of advantageous industries. The first is to promote the high-end transformation of traditional industries. At present, the chain of scientific and technological innovation is more dexterous, and technological innovation and transformation of achievements are faster. The achievements of scientific and technological innovation should be applied to traditional pillar industries such as petrochemical industry, chemical industry, light industry, steel, construction, textile, machinery, automobile, etc., and the chain of superior industries should be supplemented and the chain of traditional industries upgraded to improve the position and competitiveness of traditional industries in the global industrial division of labor. Make good use of various policies and measures for large-scale equipment renovation, carry out in-depth technical renovation and upgrading of manufacturing industry and large-scale equipment renovation projects, promote the construction of major technical renovation projects, fill outstanding shortcomings in core hardware and basic raw materials, and improve the toughness and safety level of industrial chain supply chain. The second is to promote the green transformation of traditional industries. At present, China’s traditional industrial structure and energy structure have obvious high-carbon characteristics. We should correctly handle the relationship between development and carbon reduction, promote carbon neutrality in peak carbon dioxide emissions in an orderly manner, improve the regulation of total energy consumption and intensity, strengthen institutional constraints such as environmental protection and safety, establish and improve a green and low-carbon development policy system, improve energy use efficiency, and promote green and low-carbon transformation of enterprises. Accelerate the innovation of green science and technology, promote the application of energy-saving and energy-efficient technologies, technologies and equipment, and promote the economical and intensive utilization of various resources in manufacturing industry. The third is to promote the diversified development of traditional industries. Focusing on the individualized, diversified and escalating material needs of the people,Promote traditional industries to implement industrial base reconstruction projects and major technical equipment research projects, improve product quality and technical performance, enrich product categories, and better meet people’s growing needs for a better life.

  Integrate innovative resources and cultivate and expand emerging industries.

  With the development of scientific and technological innovation, cutting-edge technologies and disruptive technologies are constantly emerging and spreading, giving birth to new products, new models and new formats, and forming a series of emerging sub-industries. At present, China has a world-class team of researchers and engineers, a huge amount of R&D investment, and the effectiveness of innovation-driven development is increasingly apparent. The achievements of scientific and technological innovation are fruitful, and the development of emerging industries shows a good momentum. However, the foundation of scientific and technological innovation in China is still not solid, the relationship between scientific research and economy is not close, the conversion rate of scientific and technological achievements is not high, and the situation that key core technologies in some fields are controlled by people has not fundamentally changed. To solve these outstanding contradictions and problems, we must fundamentally rely on reform, adhere to the problem orientation, turn the scientific and technological innovation achievements in the laboratory into a realistic driving force to promote the high-quality development of the manufacturing industry, cultivate and expand emerging industries, and lay out and build future industries.

  To lead strategic emerging industries and future industrial development with scientific and technological innovation, we should base ourselves on the advantages of resource endowment and industrial base, make full use of cutting-edge technologies and subversive technologies, and build advanced manufacturing clusters. The first is to strengthen original and basic research. Adhere to the market orientation, focus on the national strategy and the practical needs of economic and social development, take key common technologies, cutting-edge leading technologies, modern engineering technologies and subversive technological innovations as breakthroughs, increase the proportion of scientific and technological expenditures for basic research, and encourage high-risk and high-value basic research. Highlight the dominant position of enterprises in innovation, give play to the advantages of the new national system, implement major scientific and technological innovation projects, and make new breakthroughs in original and subversive scientific and technological innovation achievements. Deploy innovation chain around the industrial chain, integrate all kinds of innovative resources, accelerate the transformation and industrialization of scientific and technological achievements, and cultivate a good innovation pattern of combining Industry-University-Research, connecting the upper, middle and lower reaches, and coordinating large, medium and small enterprises. The second is to cultivate and expand strategic emerging industries. Vigorously develop high-end equipment, new energy vehicles, aerospace, biomedicine, artificial intelligence, next-generation information technology and other strategic emerging industries with high technology content, strong market competitiveness, great driving effect and good economic benefits, promote the development of emerging industries’ integrated clusters, and form an industrial layout with complementary advantages and reasonable structure. The third is to lay out future industries in advance. Scientifically plan the future industrial development direction, establish the future industrial investment growth mechanism, dig deep into the fields of artificial intelligence, life sciences, quantum technology, low-carbon energy and advanced materials, boldly innovate and explore, and promote the accelerated growth of future industrial clusters.Strive to form a competitive advantage in some new industrial fields. Fourth, vigorously develop modern producer services. Modern producer service industry is an important support for empowering the development of manufacturing industry. We should focus on key links to promote the high-quality development of producer service industry in different fields, accelerate the development of modern producer services such as research and development, design, consulting and patents, realize the deep integration of modern service industry and advanced manufacturing industry, and further increase the added value of manufacturing industry. Focus on railways, highways, cold chain logistics, etc., moderately advance the construction of a modern infrastructure system, accelerate the construction of an integrated comprehensive transportation system, improve the modern business circulation system, reduce the logistics cost of the whole society, and enhance the core competitiveness of manufacturing.

  Make good use of digital technology to promote the intelligence of manufacturing industry

  With the accelerated innovation and wide application of Internet, big data, artificial intelligence and other technologies, the digital economy is booming and is becoming a key force to reshape the manufacturing mode of production and influence the global competition pattern. In 2023, the added value of core industries in China’s digital economy accounted for 10% of GDP, and the digital economy has become an important engine for the high-quality development of China’s economy. China has the advantages of super-large-scale market and massive data resources, and the data-enabled manufacturing industry has great space and potential, which is promising in promoting the intelligent transformation of manufacturing industry.

  To support the intelligent transformation of manufacturing industry, digital technology should be used to empower manufacturing industry in all directions, all angles and all chains to improve total factor productivity. The first is to strengthen key core technology research. Strengthen scientific and technological research and development in key areas such as basic materials, integrated circuits, semiconductors, high-precision sensors and core electronic components, and consolidate the digital hardware support of manufacturing industry. Cultivate software enterprises with international influence, focus on breaking through key software, and enhance the technological innovation and supply capacity of key software. The second is to speed up the construction of new infrastructure. Build a new infrastructure planning and standard system, plan digital infrastructure in a forward-looking way, moderately advance the construction of new information infrastructure such as 5G, data center and computing power, implement the industrial Internet innovation and development project, and form a number of globally competitive industrial Internet platforms. The third is to strengthen the application of digital empowerment. Promote the large-scale application of industrial internet, aim at the digital pain points of manufacturing enterprises, and provide targeted digital transformation programs. Encourage small and medium-sized enterprises to use cloud storage, cloud security and other application services, support enterprises to build digital workshops, smart factories and intelligent production lines, and promote intelligent, digital and networked manufacturing.

  Promote system innovation and create a good development environment.

  Running an effective system and mechanism is not only a strong support for scientific and technological innovation, but also an important guarantee for the high-quality development of manufacturing industry. With the deepening of high-quality development, China’s economic development system and mechanism have been continuously improved, and the development momentum of manufacturing industry has been continuously enhanced. In the future, we should further deepen the reform in an all-round way, give full play to the role of the market mechanism, establish a high-standard market system, expand high-level opening to the outside world, optimize the efficiency and maximize the benefits of resource allocation, and create a fairer and more dynamic market environment.

  To promote institutional innovation, we should focus on talents, capital and business environment. The first is to innovate the system and mechanism of talent development. Talent is the key to promoting scientific and technological innovation and empowering the high-quality development of manufacturing industry. Combined with the development trend of manufacturing technology, we should optimize the discipline setting and talent training mode of colleges and universities, strengthen the training of scientific researchers and workers’ skills, and continuously improve the quality of all kinds of talents. Optimize the distribution mechanism of scientific research achievements, build a salary system suitable for scientific researchers, managers and technical talents, better reflect the market value of knowledge, technology and talents, and attract outstanding talents to the manufacturing industry. The second is to deepen the reform of the financial system. We will further promote the structural reform of the financial supply side, improve the multi-level fund supply system, promote the integrated development of technology and finance, inclusive finance and green finance, and use more financial resources for technological innovation, advanced manufacturing, green development and small and medium-sized enterprises to improve the adaptability of financial services. Actively develop venture capital, establish an investment orientation of investing early, investing small and investing in hard technology, and guide more long-term capital and patient capital to invest in high-tech manufacturing. The third is to create a market-oriented, legalized and internationalized first-class business environment. Accelerate the construction of a unified national market, improve the comprehensive market supervision ability and level, improve laws, regulations and technical management standards that are compatible with the high-quality development of manufacturing industry, improve the market environment and credit evaluation system, and create a stable, fair, transparent and predictable business environment.

News observation: adhere to scientific, accurate and effective prevention and control of epidemic situation

CCTV News:At present, the local epidemic situation in China presents a severe and complicated situation of wide spread, many spread chains, fast spread and expanded epidemic coverage. The analysis pointed out that the more severe and complicated the situation, the more important it is to highlight scientific and precise prevention and control. In the past few days, all localities have adhered to the ninth edition of the prevention and control plan and the 20 optimization measures, unswervingly, based on early, based on fast, scientifically and accurately carry out epidemic disposal work, and promote the implementation of optimization measures and then speed up.

Covid-19 continues to mutate, and the mutant in Omicron has also evolved into several subfamilies, which are concealed and spread quickly. As an important part of epidemic prevention and control, the speed of "chasing Yang" and "looking for Yang" is directly related to the efficiency of cutting off the virus transmission chain. Experts say that if early prevention and control is delayed, the number of infected people will increase geometrically.

Xu Wenbo, Director of the Institute of Viral Disease Prevention and Control, China CDC:Without effective protective measures in the early days, its R0 value reached 21, which means that one person can pass 21 people. If you don’t prevent and control it, 10 times 20 will become 200 people, which is increasing geometrically.

The faster the virus spreads, the faster it must be. Shanghai optimized, adjusted and implemented relevant prevention and control measures in detail, and issued a series of requirements; Beijing has established a dispatch and command mechanism of "chasing the sun" for mixed management, and implemented rapid detection of the single sample book of personnel involved in mixed management according to the principle of proximity, convenience and quickness; Guangzhou Baiyun District dynamically adjusted the prevention and control measures, lifted the restrictions on the flow of people in some streets where there were no new socially positive infections for three consecutive days, and gradually restored the normal production and living order and production and operation … … All localities have continuously improved the level of accurate prevention and control of zoning and differentiation.

The ninth edition of the prevention and control plan and the twenty optimized prevention and control measures all propose to strengthen the protection of key institutions and key populations, formulate safety protection plans for the elderly, patients with basic diseases, pregnant women and hemodialysis patients, and optimize the management of places where vulnerable people are concentrated, such as nursing homes, especially for the elderly.

Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province has set up special designated hospitals and fever clinics to treat related patients, so as to ensure that the sealed and isolated personnel can seek medical treatment in time. Haizhu District of Guangzhou has optimized and adjusted the epidemic prevention and control measures, and the area where the epidemic prevention and control measures are strengthened has been further reduced, connecting the main channel of Haizhu District — — Liede Bridge and South China Bridge have resumed traffic, and some districts and streets are returning to work in an orderly manner.

In the critical period of fighting the epidemic, we will do our best to ensure the production and living services. In order to keep the people’s "rice bags" and "vegetable baskets" stable, the Ministry of Commerce has increased the supply organization and capacity adjustment in areas with severe epidemics, guided and optimized the terminal distribution measures, and the Ministry of Transport has also taken a series of measures to "ensure smooth traffic". Beijing has established a "white list" mechanism for insurance suppliers to co-ordinate the epidemic prevention of take-away riders and the distribution of living materials. In order to ensure the safety of the supply chain of daily necessities in the epidemic-affected community, Daxing District of Beijing organized a through train team to pick up goods directly from Shangchao and transport them to the community point to point.

Xu Wenbo, Director of the Institute of Viral Disease Prevention and Control, China CDC:The virus is our common enemy, and the government, the public, the community and the people should be twisted into a rope to fight the virus together. The government and professionals are also optimizing the prevention and control measures according to the variation characteristics of the virus and the changes in its transmission and pathogenicity, so as to protect people’s lives, health and safety as much as possible.

It is estimated that 385 million people will travel during the Spring Festival holiday, and these 10 cities are the most popular.

  Beijing, Feb. 8 (Reporter Li Jinlei) The National Tourism Administration released a travel guide for the Spring Festival holiday in 2018 today. During the Spring Festival holiday in 2018, the domestic tourist market will reach 385 million person-times, and tourists choose the top ten popular tourist destination cities: Sanya, Harbin, Hangzhou, Xiamen, Zhangjiajie, Beijing, Shanghai, Kunming, Chengdu and Chongqing.

  According to the data center survey of the National Tourism Administration, during the Spring Festival holiday in 2018, the domestic tourism market will reach 385 million person-times, and it is estimated that the tourism revenue will reach 476 billion yuan, up by 12% and 12.5% respectively.

  In the era of mass tourism, tourism has become an important way for the masses to celebrate the Spring Festival, and this year’s Spring Festival tourism market continues to flourish. According to the survey, in the first quarter of 2018, the willingness of Chinese residents to travel was 83%, of which 48.9% of tourists chose to travel during the Spring Festival. Judging from the content of travel, the theme tourism and leisure market, such as study tour, island tour, cruise tour, ice and snow tour and country tour, which serves family tourists, is hot.

  Among the residents who are willing to travel during the Spring Festival, 65.9% chose domestic long-distance travel, with the highest proportion. The top ten popular tourist destination cities for tourists are Sanya, Harbin, Hangzhou, Xiamen, Zhangjiajie, Beijing, Shanghai, Kunming, Chengdu and Chongqing. It can be seen that going south to avoid the cold and going north to play with snow is still an important motivation for tourists to travel during the Spring Festival.

  In addition, the proportion of residents who choose to travel in the suburbs is 34.5%, which indicates that family reunions and short-distance family trips will heat up during the Spring Festival. Combined with the peak of returning tourists, commercial blocks, museums, theme parks, playgrounds, zoos and temple fairs in second-and third-tier cities will welcome a large number of tourists.

  With the continuous implementation of the paid annual leave system for employees, residents are more inclined to choose off-peak leave. The survey shows that the proportion of early travel and delayed return is getting higher and higher, and the Spring Festival tourism market has a trend of breaking through the holiday and expanding after the holiday.

  From the way of travel, free travel has become the most important way for residents to travel during the Spring Festival, and the proportion of family self-help travel is as high as 52.7%. In terms of transportation, the proportion of self-driving travel reached 44.7%, and high-speed rail travel and train travel accounted for 18.8%.

  More and more tourists pay more attention to the service quality and brand image of travel agencies, and are less sensitive to prices. According to the survey, when choosing a travel agency, 36.7% take brand as the primary consideration, 17.9% choose a travel agency that they know well and are nearby, and only 6.2% choose a travel agency with low price.

  The National Tourism Administration reminds us that when purchasing tourism products, we should pay attention to verifying the business qualifications of travel agents and signing standardized travel contracts. After payment, you should take the initiative to ask the other party for the invoice and keep it as proof. We should keep in mind the "12301" national tourism service hotline and defend our rights by calling for consultation, help or complaint. When defending rights, we should be reasonable and reasonable, and we should not extend our rights without restrictions and take excessive actions to cause adverse effects. (End)

In the first three quarters of this year, the performance of foreign trade "transcripts" was outstanding. "Soft" environment+"hard" strength helped stabilize the quality increase.

CCTV News:In the first eight months of this year, the total import and export value of China’s goods trade was 28.58 trillion yuan. Since this year, China’s export performance has been particularly eye-catching. Both traditional fields and new formats have grown, and old and new kinetic energy have gone hand in hand.

Since the beginning of this year, the cultivation of new kinetic energy in China’s foreign trade field has been fruitful, the export of labor-intensive products such as services has been revitalized, the export of high-tech products such as ships has accelerated, and the old and new kinetic energy have gone hand in hand; The international contribution has been continuously improved, and the export of machinery, equipment and intermediate products has strongly supported the relevant countries to develop production and expand investment, and maintained the stability of the global industrial chain and supply chain; New models and new formats are developing vigorously. Advanced technical means and models such as digital economy and market procurement enable the sustainable development of foreign trade, and new platforms and carriers such as e-commerce and free trade zones activate the vitality of foreign trade import and export.

Tu Xinquan, Dean of China World Trade Organization Research Institute of the University of International Business and Economics, said: "China’s export product structure has been continuously optimized and upgraded. After decades of accumulation, the high-end and advanced nature of China’s export products have been further improved in recent years. Some product markets that were difficult for China to enter in the past have now become the territory for Chinese enterprises to expand their territory. A landmark development is that China will become the world’s largest automobile exporter in 2023. Even in some traditional fields, the technical content and brand value of China’s export products have also increased rapidly. It can be said that China’s industrialization has entered a stage of all-round rise and is rapidly entering a leading position. "

China’s economic third quarterly report: the import of bulk commodities increased steadily.

Judging from the foreign trade performance up to August this year, China imported 12.13 trillion yuan, an increase of 4.7%, of which the import of energy and mineral products increased by 4.9%. China’s imports of bulk commodities have steadily increased.

In Fangchenggang Wharf, Guangxi, the iron ore imported by enterprises is intelligently controlled with the cooperation of the terminal front conveyor belt and intelligent inspection terminal. The import of zinc ore at Guangxi port accounts for 1/3 of the country’s total, and the import of copper, manganese, lead and other mineral products accounts for 1/4 of the country’s total.

Wu Guojing, deputy section chief of Fangcheng Customs Supervision Section 7 under Nanning Customs, said that the "intelligent commodity inspection+imported iron ore inspection supervision mode" reduced the customs clearance time of imported iron ore by more than 50%, improved the efficiency of port loading and unloading operations by more than 20%, and saved the ship rent by 300,000 yuan at a time.

In March this year, Guangxi’s first pilot project to optimize the inspection and supervision mode of imported copper concentrate was launched in Nanning. According to statistics, the cumulative remote inspection of iron ore exceeded 7 million tons, reducing the cost for enterprises by more than 40 million yuan.

Zhou Caide, manager of the supply and sales department of Guangxi Jinchuan Nonferrous Metals Co., Ltd. said: "Now, as soon as the copper concentrate arrives in Hong Kong, we can send a car to the warehouse immediately, and the goods don’t have to be blown by the wind and rain at the dock. This model really saves us time and money, and it is ‘ Real money and silver ’ Good policy. "

From the perspective of imports, the China market continued to bring development opportunities to countries in the first eight months. Crude oil in the Middle East, natural gas in Central Asia, and metal ore in South America, all kinds of advantageous commodities in the "Belt and Road" countries are exported to China.

Tu Xinquan, Dean of the China World Trade Organization Research Institute of the University of International Business and Economics, said: "The increase in imports more reflects the changing trend of domestic production and consumption demand. From the perspective of production materials and consumption materials, China’s imports have increased rapidly in the first three quarters of this year, which shows that China’s economic vitality is constantly consolidating and strengthening. The increase in imports has actually provided strong support for China’s export growth. The benign interaction between imports and exports reflects the good trend of healthy economic development. "

The third quarterly report of China economy: continuous optimization of port business environment promotes foreign trade to speed up and increase efficiency

This year, China’s foreign trade continues to grow, which is not only the blessing of the subjective initiative of foreign trade enterprises, but also the help of the continuously optimized port business environment. Especially on the long coastline, China’s marine ports support more than 30% of the world’s foreign trade and shipping.

Entering Rizhao Port, Shandong Port, customs officers are conducting quarantine inspection on more than 40,000 tons of imported wood chips at the special loading and unloading berth. After the inspection, the wood chips are directly transported to the enterprise raw material storage yard with a straight line distance of 800 meters without reloading, thus realizing seamless connection from the dock to the factory.

Xu Guangli, director of pulp and paper company, said: "The advantages of port resources and business environment attract enterprises to invest nearly 30 billion yuan in Rizhao, and the annual import and export value of enterprises is nearly 1.5 billion US dollars."

Shandong port plays a geographical advantage of connecting the north and the south and connecting the east and the west. The transportation volume of crude oil, iron ore, bauxite and grain accounts for 1/3, 1/4, 3/5 and 1/5 of the national total respectively.

Cao Ning, general manager of Rizhao Port Minggang Crude Oil Terminal Co., Ltd., Shandong Port, said that at present, there are more than 90 national routes for building the Belt and Road Initiative and more than 120 routes serving RCEP, which provides an important boost for China’s northern trade to reach the whole world.

The import volume of fuel oil in Shandong port ranks first in China. In view of the focus problems reflected by imported fuel oil enterprises, such as repeated inspection of goods in and out of the warehouse, inconsistent results, pressure on goods and increased customs clearance costs, Qingdao Customs innovatively put forward the "one-stop test" reform in April this year, and the General Administration of Customs has now implemented it nationwide.

The continuously optimized business environment not only presses the "shortcut key" for the import and export of goods, but also attracts more domestic and foreign enterprises to accelerate their gathering. The new measures for the reform of Qingdao Port are an example of the five-month special action to promote cross-border trade facilitation, which was launched in April this year. Reducing the burden and increasing the vitality for foreign trade enterprises is a portrayal of the effective implementation of cross-border trade facilitation measures. At present, the relevant departments are constantly reforming and innovating, and constantly strengthening their efforts. Through the "two-wheel drive" of reform and science and technology, they are constantly optimizing the "soft" business environment, continuously cultivating and developing "hard" strength, and helping China’s foreign trade to increase steadily.

Huang Xingguo’s two younger brothers were taken away and have been active in the fields of machinery, construction and real estate all the year round.

Behind almost every fallen official, there is a huge and unusual network of political and business relations.

For Huang Xingguo, the former acting secretary and mayor of Tianjin Municipal Committee, his political and business network must be inseparable from his own brother.

The minister-level official who came up from the secretary of the Communist Youth League Committee of the commune has four younger brothers at home. Over the years, with the continuous "progress" of Huang Xingguo, his eldest brother, his younger brothers have also devoted themselves to the business field, involved in machinery, construction, real estate, marine economy and other fields.

This situation continued until September 10, 2016.

Huang Xingguo China Net Map

At 10: 30 that evening, the website of the Supervision Department of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection released a message that Huang Xingguo was under investigation for serious violation of discipline. Shortly thereafter, Huang Xingguo’s younger brothers Huang Xingyu and Huang Xingrong were also taken away by the relevant departments.

The latest official bulletin of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection on Huang Xingguo’s "double opening" also confirmed this point from the side.

The website of the Supervision Department of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection reported on January 4, 2017 that a few days ago, with the approval of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Commission for Discipline Inspection of the CPC Central Committee filed a case review on the serious violation of discipline by Huang Xingguo, a member of the 18th Central Committee, acting secretary of the former Tianjin Municipal Party Committee and mayor.

After investigation, Huang Xingguo seriously violated political discipline and rules, discussed the central government’s major policies, undermined the party’s centralization and unity, acted in a blind manner, engaged in superstitious activities, inquired about clues about his own problems, and opposed organizational censorship; Violation of organizational discipline, illegal selection and appointment of cadres and acceptance of property, official vows, cronyism; Violation of integrity discipline, accepting gifts and cash gifts,Conniving and acquiescing relatives to gain huge profits by taking advantage of their position influence, and taking advantage of their authority and position influence to seek personal gain for their sons.,Seek benefits for others and accept huge amounts of property in business operations.; Violation of work discipline, illegal arrangements for visiting entourage, oversight of staff around. Taking advantage of his position to seek benefits for others and accepting property is suspected of committing a crime.

The traces left by the Huang brothers’ active business for many years have just revealed the tip of the iceberg.

hometown

Xiangshan in September is not calm. Around the Mid-Autumn Festival, typhoons "Moranti" and "malka" came one after another, which made this small port county belonging to Ningbo and adjacent to the East China Sea stormy.

More powerful than a typhoon is the fall of Huang Xingguo.

As the hometown of Huang Xingguo, Xiangshan has long been proud to be a ministerial official.

xiangshan county

Local people say that compared with several counties and cities around Ningbo, Xiangshan’s economy is at the lower middle level. Especially before the Xiangshan Port Bridge was completed in 2012, it was very inconvenient to travel. In this case, it is difficult for Xiangshan officials to achieve political achievements and there is not much room for promotion.

But Huang Xingguo is an exception.

He is a native of Xiangshan, and his parents still live in Xibiantang Village, Xiaotang Township, south of Xiangshan. In the 1970s, Huang Xingguo started as the secretary of the Youth League Committee of Xiangshan Xiaotang Commune, and was gradually promoted to the posts of secretary of Xiangshan County Committee, secretary of Taizhou District Committee and secretary-general of Zhejiang Provincial Government.

In January 1998, 44-year-old Huang Xingguo stepped into the ranks of deputy ministerial leaders and began to serve as the vice governor of Zhejiang Province. Ten months later, he became a member of the Standing Committee of Zhejiang Provincial Committee and concurrently served as the secretary of Ningbo Municipal Committee.

In November 2003, Huang Xingguo was transferred to the post of Deputy Secretary and Vice Mayor of Tianjin Municipal Committee. As a municipality directly under the central government adjacent to the capital, Tianjin has a special political status, and this adjustment has also been favored by the outside world.

Huang Xingguo, who works in Tianjin, has a special concern for his hometown.

According to public information, since 2011, the party and government leaders of Xiangshan and Ningbo have led many delegations to study in Tianjin, and all of them were received by Huang Xingguo.

According to Zhejiang Online, in 2010, Song Qintang, who served as secretary of Xiangshan County Party Committee in his early years, died. Huang Xingguo, then deputy secretary of Tianjin Municipal Committee and mayor, sent a message of condolence and laid a wreath. Huang Xingguo’s wife Han Lingling personally went to Xiangshan to offer her condolences.

In 2013, Chen Yongzhong, then deputy head of Xiangshan County, died of illness. When introducing the relevant situation, official website of Xiangshan Port, China mentioned, "During Comrade Chen Yongzhong’s illness, Comrade Huang Xingguo, deputy secretary of the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China and mayor of Tianjin, was very concerned and sent someone to visit the hospital."

Years of care and interaction have made many Xiangshan people feel sorry for Huang Xingguo’s defeat.

Some people who have had contact with him have given a relatively positive evaluation to this fellow countryman-Huang Xingguo, who was still working in the county in those days, has a good memory, outstanding ability, and a little precocious, and his career is also reasonable.

In contrast, people have some different views on Huang Xingguo’s younger brother.

According to many related sources, Huang Xingguo is the eldest in the family, and there are four younger brothers below. Compared with the eldest brother, these younger brothers have low education level and average quality, and more often rely on their special status to get involved in various businesses.

According to The Paper (www.thepaper.cn), Huang Xingguo has four younger brothers, namely Huang Xingchang, Huang Xingfang, Huang Xingyu and Huang Xingrong.

Among them, Huang Xingchang, Huang Xingyu and Huang Xingrong are all directly involved in business. In addition, since 2002, Huang Xingchang has served as the director of the village committee of Xibiantang Village in Xiangshan County, and was elected as the representative of the 17th People’s Congress of Xiangshan County in January 2012.

Another authoritative source from Xiangshan revealed that the next morning after Huang Xingguo’s fall, several strange faces appeared in the Huang family in Tangcun, west of the local area, and Huang Xingyu was immediately taken away. Huang Xingrong, who usually does not live in the village, was also taken away by the relevant departments.

marine economy

With the fall of Huang Xingguo and his two younger brothers being taken away, some companies related to the Huang brothers surfaced.

First of all, pay attention to the marine economy.

In August 2012, China Supply and Marketing Group (Ningbo) Marine Economic Development Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "China Supply and Marketing Group Ningbo Company") was incorporated in Xiangshan. The company has a registered capital of 205 million yuan and its legal representative is Zhang Jincheng.

There were two shareholders at the earliest: China Supply and Marketing Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "China Supply and Marketing Group") and Ningbo Xixiang Investment Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Ningbo Xixiang"). Among them, China Supply and Marketing Group is a wholly-owned enterprise of the All-China Federation of Supply and Marketing Cooperatives, holding 60% of the shares of China Supply and Marketing Group Ningbo Company.

In February 2016, Chongqing Innohill Import and Export Trading Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Chongqing Innohill") joined the investment ranks. The shareholders of China Supply and Marketing Group Ningbo Company became China Supply and Marketing Group, Ningbo Xixiang and Chongqing Ainuo Hill, and the shareholding ratio of the three companies was about 1: 3: 6.

In terms of personnel structure, the chairman of Ningbo Company of China Supply and Marketing Group is Zhang Jincheng, the vice chairman is Dai Xiyang, and the general manager is Hu Wei. Huang Xingguo’s younger brother, Huang Xingyu, was a member of the board of directors of the company.

It is reasonable for Huang Xingyu to be associated with Ningbo Company of China Supply and Marketing Group.

According to industrial and commercial data, Ningbo Xixiang, the second largest shareholder of China Supply and Marketing Group Ningbo Company, was established in May 2012 with a registered capital of 5 million yuan.

Ningbo Xixiang has three natural person shareholders: Huang Xingyu, Dai Xiyang and Dai Yongqi. Among them, Huang Xingyu contributed 2.5 million yuan, making him the largest shareholder.

This also means that Ningbo Company, a China supply and marketing group with a registered capital of more than 200 million yuan and a "national name" background, has Huang Xingyu’s investment behind it.

As one of the investors, this "mayor’s younger brother" is mostly hidden behind the scenes.

People close to Ningbo Company of China Supply and Marketing Group said that Huang Xingyu had hardly been seen in the company. Huang Xingguo’s fall has not affected the enterprise yet.

According to public information, Ningbo Company of China Supply and Marketing Group has gained the attention of leaders at all levels since its establishment in Xiangshan, and its development trend is good.

The project of Xiangshan International Aquatic Logistics Park invested and built by the enterprise has attracted much attention and has been written into the work report of Xiangshan County Government for many years. In 2015, the first phase of Xiangshan International Aquatic Logistics Park Project was included in the list of key construction projects in Zhejiang Province.

According to official website, a company, since 2013, many leaders from the national supply and marketing system, Zhejiang Province and Ningbo City have visited.

At the same time, Ningbo Company of China Supply and Marketing Group is constantly expanding its business field.

The company has successively invested in nine enterprises, including Ningbo Ocean Real Estate Co., Ltd., Ningbo Xinrou Protein Technology Co., Ltd., Ningbo Xinhaitong Da Trading Co., Ltd., Ningbo Xinmao Tongda Aquatic Products Trading Co., Ltd., Ningbo Taiken Industrial Co., Ltd., Shanghai Nongkun Industrial Co., Ltd., Beijing Huakang Yida Trading Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Qianhai Nonggan Industrial Co., Ltd. and Dalian Xinyang Tongda Industrial Co., Ltd., totaling more than 100 million yuan.

Elevator industry

Huang Xingyu also appeared in the elevator industry.

In July 2010, Tianjin Riyang Elevator Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Tianjin Riyang") was incorporated in Beichen District, Tianjin. The registered capital of the company is 10.1 million yuan, the legal representative is Jin Guoying, and shareholders Jin Guoying, Zhang Hongsheng and Huang Xingyu serve as supervisors of the company.

According to some public recruitment information, in recent years, Tianjin Riyang has repeatedly recruited personnel for Tianjin Branch of Express Elevator Co., Ltd., and the two companies are closely related.

According to industrial and commercial data, Express Elevator Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Express Elevator") was incorporated in Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou in March 2012 with a registered capital of 35.04 million yuan and its legal representative is Huang Lianyong.

The company has five shareholders, namely natural persons Fang Liang, Zhou Jinlin, Huang Lianyong and Huang Xingyu, and corporate shareholders Hangzhou Kuaidao Investment Consulting Partnership (Limited Partnership).

Among them, Huang Xingyu subscribed for 7.75 million yuan, second only to Chairman and General Manager Huang Lianyong, and was the second largest shareholder of Express Elevator.

According to Express Elevator official website, Express Elevator is a British brand elevator company headquartered in London. In 2012, the British Express Elevator entered the China market and established the British Express Elevator Asia-Pacific Industrial Park in Hangzhou, with a total investment of 60 million US dollars and a factory area of about 100,000 square meters.

Official website of this enterprise also introduced that Huang Lianyong, the chairman of the board, was born in Xiaowan Village, Shipu Town, Xiangshan County in October 1979.

The Paper found that Xiaowan Village is located in the south of Xiangshan County, only 8 kilometers away from Xifangtang Village in Xiaotang Town, Huang Xingguo’s hometown.

Official website, the express elevator, also mentioned that since the operation of the enterprise, it has successfully won the bid for the elevator installation supporting projects of several projects, such as Chongqing Xiushan Railway New Passenger Station Square, Shaanxi Xi ‘an Prison, Guizhou Central Tianjie, Tianjin Lilong Commercial Plaza, Yuanchuang International Building Grade A office building, Baoding Swan Lake Community, Changchun Yuanchuang Ziyuetai, Quanzhou Engineering Vocational and Technical School, Lanzhou Heping Jiasheng Business Center and so on.

Attention should be paid to the Tianjin Lilong Commercial Plaza project.

This project was developed by Tianjin Zhili Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Tianjin Zhili").

According to industrial and commercial data, Tianjin Zhili was established in December 2011 with a registered capital of 100 million yuan and its legal representative is Zhang Jian. Natural person shareholder Tao Huang and corporate shareholders Tianjin Huachen Investment Development Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Tianjin Huachen") hold 49% and 51% of the shares respectively.

Tianjin Huachen, another shareholder of Tianjin Zhili, is also worthy of attention.

The company was established by Tianjin Huabei Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Huabei Group").

Official website, North China Group, introduced that the enterprise was established in 1999, and now it has become a large-scale comprehensive group company based on copper industry, integrating cable industry, financial industry, real estate industry and modern logistics. The comprehensive strength of the Group has been ranked among the top 500 private enterprises in China and the top 500 manufacturing enterprises in China for many years, with total assets exceeding 10 billion yuan and annual turnover reaching 20 billion yuan.

The legal representative and the largest shareholder of North China Group are Zhou Wenqi, who is also one of the directors of Tianjin Zhili.

In public reports, there is not much information about Zhou Wenqi.

The most common introduction is: Zhou Wenqi was born in 1999, bought Tianjin Huabei Cable Factory, and began to set foot in the copper processing industry. Two years later, the enterprise turned losses into profits, and now produces wires and cables and copper plates and rods, which is the largest copper production base in North China.

In July 2014, the China Banking Regulatory Commission officially approved the application for the establishment of three private banks in China. North China Group, Tencent, Zhengtai, Huafeng and other well-known enterprises jointly entered the list of the first seven sponsors, which is the latest intensive concern of Zhou Wenqi.

In addition, Zhou Wenqi is a representative of Tianjin Beichen District People’s Congress, vice chairman of Beichen District Federation of Industry and Commerce and the first director of APEC China Business Council.

real estate

The intersection of Zhou Wenqi and the Huang brothers is not just the elevator industry.

In July 2006, Sanmen Wenfeng Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Wenfeng Real Estate") was registered and established in Sanmen County, Taizhou City. The registered capital of the company is 10 million yuan, and there were three shareholders at the earliest: Zheng Minjie, Sun Meiqin and Dai Zhaofei.

One year later, the shareholders of Wenfeng Real Estate were changed to Huang Xingyu and Zhou Wenqi. Each of them contributed 5 million yuan, with Huang Xingyu as the general manager and executive director and Zhou Wenqi as the supervisor.

In April 2009, Huang Xingyu and Zhou Wenqi increased their capital contribution to 10 million respectively, thus increasing the registered capital of Wenfeng Real Estate to 20 million. Two years later, Huang Xingyu stepped down from the relevant positions of the company and only retained the status of Wenfeng Real Estate.

According to public information, Wenfeng Real Estate once developed the "Hutang Yuese" project in Sanmen. The property opened in October 2009, covering an area of about 33,000 square meters, and has been basically sold out.

After Sanmen in Taizhou, the cooperation between Zhou Wenqi and Huang Xingyu continued in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.

In August 2011, Shijiazhuang Xinhua Chiyun International Trading Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Jane)say/call"Chi Yun Business") was incorporated.

The registered capital of the company is 100 million yuan, which is jointly invested by Hebei Zhengyuan Packaging Group Co., Ltd., Tianjin Zhanyu Investment Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Linwo Industrial Co., Ltd. The legal representative is Lu Xiaofeng. Zhou Wenqi served as the chairman, and six directors, including Lu Xiaofeng and Huang Xingyu, served as directors.

In May 2012, Chiyun Commerce invested 10 million yuan to establish Shijiazhuang Chiyun Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Chiyun Real Estate").

The legal representative of Chiyun Real Estate is still Lu Xiaofeng, with Zhou Wenqi as the chairman and Huang Xingyu as the director.

The development of "Chi Yun Department" in Shijiazhuang is not smooth.

According to public information, Chiyun Commercial and Chiyun Real Estate "landed" in Shijiazhuang, with the main purpose of developing and operating the World Trade Center project in Xinhua District of the city. The project is estimated to have a total investment of 25.6 billion yuan and a planned area of 20,000 mu. In 2012, it was included in the key planned start-up project of Shijiazhuang City.

This huge project did not start as scheduled.

On April 26, 2016, yanzhao metropolis daily reported that the real estate market inspection brigade of Shijiazhuang Housing and Construction Bureau announced seven local real estate development projects to remind the majority of buyers to guard against the risks of buying houses. Among them, the World Trade Center project located in Xinhua District of the city has not obtained any development and construction procedures, does not have sales conditions, and there is a great risk of buying a house.

This situation may be related to Lu Xiaofeng, a business partner of Huang Xingyu and Zhou Wenqi.

According to public reports, Lu Xiaofeng came from Dongyang, Zhejiang Province, and started from trade. He developed the World Trade Center project in Tongxiang, Zhejiang Province and the Qiaosi Mall project in Hangzhou.

In the last two years, due to the break of the capital chain and the inability to fulfill the promised high rent return to the owners, Lu Xiaofeng faced a "crusade" from many owners.

In May, 2016, China Business News learned through many owners’ representatives in Tongxiang and Hangzhou and relevant persons of the local government that Lu Xiaofeng claimed to have gone to the United States for medical treatment because of stomach cancer, and it was difficult to get in touch. The company under its name is heavily in debt, and some assets have been seized.

intermediary/Middle Men

Compared with Huang Xingyu, Huang Xingchang and Huang Xingrong started their business earlier.

According to sources, Huang Xingchang has been involved in the construction industry since the late 1980s, and worked as a project manager in Xiangshan Municipal Engineering Construction Company.

It should be pointed out that Xiangshan is also known as the "hometown of architecture". In the 1980s and 1990s, when the local construction industry started and developed, many construction teams went to Ningbo, Shanghai and other places to explore the market, including famous Xiangshan enterprises such as Longyuan Construction and Hongrun Construction listed on the main board of Shanghai and Shenzhen.

In this context, the Huang brothers are also eager to try.

In December 1996, Huang Xingchang and Sun Yunfu invested 4.5 million yuan and 500,000 yuan respectively to establish Ningbo Great Wall Real Estate Co., Ltd..

In October 1999, Huang Xingchang and Huang Xingrong invested and established Ningbo Wanxing Construction Co., Ltd., with a registered capital of 6 million yuan and Sun Yunfu as the legal representative.

At present, Ningbo Great Wall Real Estate Co., Ltd. and Ningbo Wanxing Construction Co., Ltd. have been cancelled.

When Huang Xingchang was exploring the construction industry, Huang Xingrong turned his attention to foreign trade investment.

Relevant information shows that as early as the early 1990s, Huang Xingrong served as the legal representative of Xiangshan Oriental Materials Company. The company was established in July 1992, with the nature of collective ownership, and its business scope includes metal materials, coal, chemical raw materials and textile raw materials.

In June, 1993, Xiangshan Oriental Materials Company established Ningbo Bonded Area Rongda Economic Development Co., Ltd. with foreign investment. The legal representative of the latter is Huang Xingchang, whose business scope includes international trade, entrepot trade, export processing, warehousing and many other contents.

Xiangshan Oriental Materials Company and Ningbo Bonded Area Rongda Economic Development Co., Ltd. have also been cancelled.

In the middle and late 1990s, it was also the stage when Huang Xingguo made efforts from the main hall to the deputy department. In August 1996, he was transferred from Taizhou Municipal Party Committee Secretary to Secretary-General of Zhejiang Provincial Government, and was promoted to Vice Governor of Zhejiang Province one and a half years later.

In November, 1998, Huang Xingguo stepped into the Standing Committee of Zhejiang Provincial Committee and started to serve as the secretary of Ningbo Municipal Committee. During this period, his younger brothers appeared low-key and secretive in business.

A number of people familiar with Ningbo officialdom said that Huang Xingguo’s brother’s business was not completed by a physical company as an immediate relative of the main leaders. More often, they are just "middlemen" who bridge the gap between the government and businessmen and benefit from it.

A widely circulated case is the change of taxi in Ningbo in 1999.

Many related people recalled that at the end of July, 1999, the Ningbo Municipal Government issued relevant policies, requiring that more than 2,000 taxis in the city be replaced by Santana owned by Shanghai Volkswagen. Buy a new car, mainly through a local designated car dealer in Ningbo.

A few months later, some of the newly replaced Santana had quality problems. The "good friends" suspected that it was a defective product returned by the previous buyer, so they went to the Ningbo Municipal Government to discuss it. Without a satisfactory reply, hundreds of "brothers" intend to drive to the headquarters of Shanghai Volkswagen. The matter was intervened by the Zhejiang provincial government and stopped urgently, and all the vehicles in question were subsequently replaced.

Many years later, some taxi drivers in Ningbo who have experienced this incident are still deeply impressed by the "car change storm". Some drivers recalled that things could make a big deal at that time, in addition to the quality problems of the new car itself, it was also related to the designated model.

"At that time, it was not cheap to change Santana, and we didn’t accept it in our hearts." Some taxi drivers in Ningbo recalled that there was a rumor among "friends" that Huang Xingguo’s younger brother was involved in the operation behind the car change incident.

Now it’s so old that it’s hard to see the ins and outs. A number of people familiar with Ningbo officialdom told The Paper that it was true that Huang Xingguo’s younger brother Huang Xingrong was involved in the taxi change in 1999. It was also during Huang Xingguo’s tenure as secretary of Ningbo Municipal Party Committee that there were rumors of "Huang Xingguo’s younger brother’s participation" in Ningbo’s municipal projects such as greening and street lamp installation.

Multiple fields

Time has entered the 21st century. In November, 2003, Huang Xingguo left Zhejiang for the first time and went to work in Tianjin.

One month later, in December 2003, Huang Xingrong invested and established Ningbo Fulian FRP Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Fulian FRP") in Ningbo.

It is worth noting that at this time, Huang Xingrong was already a citizen of Hong Kong, and there was a company registered in Hong Kong in March 2000, named Hong Kong Hongxin Investment Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Hong Kong Hongxin").

The earliest shareholder of Fulian FRP is Hong Kong Hongxin.

As a Hong Kong-funded enterprise, Fulian FRP has a registered capital of US$ 4 million, with Huang Xingrong as the chairman, Sun Yunfu as the vice chairman and Huang Xingchang as the director.

At the beginning of the company’s establishment, its business scope was the manufacturing and processing of FRP products, and it was planned to realize the production scale with an annual output value of 150 million yuan and annual sales of 130 million yuan.

According to other data, in December 2003, Fulian FRP acquired 75.75 mu of land in Ningbo (Camel) Electromechanical Industrial Park to build a factory building. The total construction area of the plant is 35,000 square meters, and the first phase of the project lasts for two and a half years. The construction unit is Ningbo Great Wall Real Estate Co., Ltd. established by Huang Xingchang in 1996.

After 2004, the commercial map of Huangjia Brothers gradually expanded, and the equity and business direction of Fulian FRP also experienced several changes.

According to industrial and commercial data, in August 2004, Hong Kong Hongxin transferred 75% of its shares to Shanghai Rongshan Investment Management Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Shanghai Rongshan").

Shanghai Rongshan was established by Ningbo Great Wall Real Estate Co., Ltd., Zou Ying and Sun Yunfu with a registered capital of 10 million yuan.

In March 2005, Fulian FRP changed its business scope from the original manufacturing and processing of FRP products to the manufacturing and processing of ordinary mechanical parts and auto parts products, and the company name was also changed to Ningbo Fulian Machinery Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Fulian Machinery").

In April 2006, Hong Kong Hongxin transferred 2.55% equity to Huang Xingrong. The shareholders of Fulian Machinery were changed to Hong Kong Hongxin, Shanghai Rongshan and Huang Xingrong.

However, Fulian Machinery is not the main direction of the Huang brothers in business. Over the years, their road to business has not focused on a certain industry, but has spread its net widely and spanned many times.

Take Huang Xingchang as an example. In addition to the construction, real estate, trade and machinery manufacturing mentioned above, he also participated in the textile and aquaculture industries. The location of the enterprise is not limited to Ningbo, but also includes Shanghai, Anhui and even Hainan.

In March 2006, Hainan Fulian Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., jointly invested by Ningbo Great Wall Real Estate Co., Ltd. and Hong Kong Hongxin, was incorporated in Haikou. The registered capital of the company is US$ 1.28 million, and the legal representatives are Huang Xingchang and Huang Xingrong as vice-chairmen.

In August 2006, Huangshan Fulian Textile Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Fulian Textile") was established in Huangshan City, Anhui Province. The company has a registered capital of 4 million yuan, and its legal representative and executive director are Huang Xingchang.

At the same time, huangshan district Branch of Shanghai Jinshan Real Estate Management Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Shanghai Jinshan Real Estate Huangshan Branch") headed by Huang Xingchang was incorporated in Huangshan City, Anhui Province.

At present, both Hainan Fulian and Huangshan Fulian have their business licenses revoked, and Shanghai Jinshan Real Estate Huangshan Branch has been cancelled.

In 2009, Huang Xingchang also briefly held a 10% stake in Ningbo Southern Wildlife Breeding Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Southern Breeding"). In less than a year, he will transfer the shares in his hand.

At present, Dai Xiyang is the largest shareholder of Southern Aquaculture. This person is also a business partner of Huang Xingyu, who once invested with Huang Xingyu in Ningbo Company of China Supply and Marketing Group.

Associated person

In addition to the Huang brothers, several common associates around them are also worthy of attention.

In May 2008, Zou Ying and Ren Qingsui, who had previously invested in Fulian Machinery, jointly established Huangshan huangshan district Yinhe Advertising Planning Co., Ltd. With a registered capital of only 500,000 yuan, the company invested 10 million yuan abroad and established Tianjin Binhai Fulian Logistics Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Fulian Logistics").

Fulian Logistics was established in March 2009, with Ren Qingsui as the legal representative and executive director and Sun Yunfu as the supervisor.

In addition to the "rich connection" composed of Fulian Machinery, Fulian Textile, Fulian Real Estate and Fulian Logistics, enterprises related to the Huang brothers and named after Rongshan are enough to form a series.

Among them, Shanghai Rongshan, one of the investors of Fulian Machinery, established in 2004, Ningbo Rongshan Investment Holding Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Ningbo Rongshan Investment") established in 2011 and Ningbo Rongshan Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Ningbo Rongshan Environmental Protection") established in 2016.

From 2006 to 2015, Ningbo Rongshan Investment set up three other enterprises, namely Hangzhou Rongshan Greening and Maintenance Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Hangzhou Rongshan Greening"), Ningbo Rongshan Auto Parts Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Ningbo Rongshan Auto Parts") and Ningbo Free Trade Zone Yongchuang Zhilian Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd.

The investors of these three enterprises include Zou Ying.

In addition, The Paper noted that the legal representatives of Hangzhou Rongshan Greening and Ningbo Rongshan Auto Parts are Huang Hua. He is also one of the shareholders of Rongshan Environmental Protection in Ningbo.

According to relevant sources, Huang Xingguo has a nephew named Huang Hua, who is likely to be an investor in the above-mentioned "Rongshan Department".

Among the enterprises related to the Huang brothers, Huang Hua’s name does not only appear in the "Rongshan Department".

In July 2008, he and Zhang Chunxu, Yang Jiyin and others invested and established Ningbo Baiye Real Estate Investment Consulting Co., Ltd..

In January 2013, Huang Hua once again cooperated with Zhang Chunxu to invest in the establishment of Ningbo Baiyi Real Estate Investment Consulting Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Ningbo Baiyi").

According to industrial and commercial data, Ningbo Baiyi has a registered capital of 2 million yuan, with Huang Hua as the legal representative and executive director and Zhang Chunxu as the supervisor.

At present, Ningbo Baiyi has been revoked its business license, and Ningbo Baiyi is still in business. The latter works in the same place as Fulian Machinery, whose legal representative is Huang Xingchang.

In September 2016, The Paper visited Fulian Machinery and Ningbo Baiyi in an office building in jiangdong district, Ningbo. The door of the company is tight, and the staff are extremely wary of strangers who come to visit and refuse to disclose any information about the boss.

In addition, Ren Qingsui, who has a high correlation with the Huang brothers, is also the head of huangshan district Branch of Ningbo Xinhengde Real Estate Co., Ltd..

Relevant information shows that huangshan district Branch of Ningbo Xinhengde Real Estate Co., Ltd. was established in July 2009. In 2013, the company developed the property "Xintiandi Garden" in Yungu Road, huangshan district, Huangshan City, and the property is still on sale.

It should be noted that the parent company of this property is Ningbo Xinhengde Real Estate Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Ningbo Xinhengde").

Ningbo Xinhengde was established in September 2000 with a registered capital of 50 million yuan, which is an enterprise under the name of Yu Nengjian, a native of Juexi, Xiangshan.

In the Xiangshan rich circle, Yu Nengjian and his younger brother Yu Guoxiang are "legends". In 2003, Yu Guoxiang, who was previously unknown, bought Hilton Shanghai Jing ‘an, which made him famous. In 2004, Yu Nengjian spent $1 billion to buy the management right of Hangzhou Ring Expressway, which caused a sensation again.

In the impression of many Xiangshan people, the Yu brothers act in a low-key and mysterious way, and most of their friends are dignitaries. According to Caijing, in 2006, Yu Guoxiang, known as "Little Ningbo", once lost his freedom.

In November 2008, the Intermediate People’s Court of Tongling City, Anhui Province made a first-instance judgment on the case that Shanghai Shanchuan Real Estate Co., Ltd. and its actual controller, Yu Guoxiang, bribed four calligraphy and paintings totaling 3.737 million yuan, and sentenced the two units to a fine of 2 million yuan each for bribery, and sentenced Yu Guoxiang to two years’ imprisonment with a suspended sentence of three years. Yu Guoxiang said in court that he would not appeal.

A number of related sources said that in recent years, Yu Guoxiang has been active in the business field as the boss of Sanli Holding Group, a Hong Kong-funded enterprise. He has a very good relationship with Huang Xingguo’s youngest brother, Huang Xingrong. In late September 2016, after Huang Xingrong was taken away, news came from Ningbo that Yu Guoxiang cooperated with the investigation.

However, in late October 2016, The Paper verified this rumor with the Shanghai headquarters of Sanli Holding Group. The staff of the company explicitly denied it and said that the boss was not in Shanghai at present.

The hundred-dollar bills in the poster were flying all over the sky like bubbles, and ordinary little people were tempted by money and made different reactions. The poster highlights the dual themes of "money" and "humanity": it implies that the film takes "money" as a clue and the characters in the film pursue unrealistic interests; The ugly and fierce characters also reflect the sharp exposure of the dark side of human nature, such as greed and violence. "Great World" is another domestic adult animated film that will be shown in the cinema. The poster "Recommended for adults to watch" attracts attention. The film is scheduled for January 12, 2018.

The new poster "Drunk with Money" highlights the true humanity in front of money.

"Great World" tells the story that the construction site driver Xiao Zhang robbed the boss of a huge sum of money to give his girlfriend a facelift, which triggered the pursuit of various forces. The most impressive thing about the poster of "Becoming Rich" released this time is the money flying everywhere in the picture. Under the temptation of money, the characters in the play react in different ways, as if they were fighting for huge sums of money by any means. From the poster, we can see many clues and connotations of the film:

First of all, the main clue of the film plot is money. Money is a real problem that everyone will face, and "becoming rich" is almost a dream that every ordinary person has had to make a fortune. Money connects all the forces in the film, which not only makes the plot more suspenseful, but also enhances the audience’s sense of substitution for the role’s desire to "chase money". After careful observation, we can also find that the money in the poster is transformed from a bubble and broken at the touch of a finger, suggesting that the characters in the film are pursuing unrealistic interests, and there is also a moral that "ill-gotten wealth is not desirable"; Secondly, all kinds of characters in the poster compete for huge sums of money, revealing the ugliest side of human nature and showing all beings under the temptation of money. Posters cover different classes of "big and small people", including social dignitaries such as real estate developers, as well as small people in the market such as working youth and billiards stalls. The same pursuit of money interests, they showed different attitudes: Zhang, the driver of the construction site, waved his knife at each other, the young women in the billiards booth showed fear, and the killer in black remained calm — — Violence, impulsiveness and ruthlessness in human nature are interpreted by the characters in the poster, which not only reflects the director’s multi-angle excavation of human nature, but also easily resonates with the audience.

After the Great Protector, another adult animation masterpiece sharply depicts extreme realism.

Since the first self-rated animated film "The Great Guardian" in the Mainland (recommended for viewers over 13 years old), "Great World" has become another animated film with a remarkable "adult label". From the poster, you can see the eye-catching "Recommended for adults" prompt and "Welcome to the adult world" slogan.

Different from ordinary animated films based on aerial fantasy stories, Big World presents the real "adult world" without mercy: the film not only involves real social events such as plastic surgery, real estate development, American presidential election, but also chooses sharp adult issues such as money and desire as its theme. In order to compete for huge sums of money, each character in the plot does not hesitate to use cruel and violent means, just as the characters in the poster "wield a knife" and "lift a hammer"; Every character shows the "dark side" of human nature in The Great World, which highlights the ultimate "realistic" style of the film. The cruel and hypocritical presentation of reality in Big World once again broke the stereotype of "childish", "fantasy" or "fairy tale" in cartoons, and was even more cruel in revealing reality than in real movies. The appearance of this kind of adult animation works can be said to enrich the market choice of China audience.

Although Great World is a unique type of realistic adult animation, it has been widely recognized both inside and outside the industry and won many awards: it not only became the first Chinese animated feature film shortlisted for the main competition unit of Berlin Film Festival, but also won three important nominations for the 54th Taiwan Golden Horse Award and won the best animated feature film award. 

The film "Great World" was hand-painted by Liu Jian for three years, and it has been announced by Striped House Pictures that it will be finalized on January 12, 2018. At that time, you can experience the ultimate "realism" in animated films in the cinema.

For the lights of thousands of families: "the most beautiful Zhejiang police" interprets the new era of "strong grass and real gold"

  Zhongxin. com, Hangzhou, January 10 (Guo Qichen) In the daily life of fireworks, it contains peace and harmony; In the moment of emergency and danger, it highlights the step forward; At the intersection of the new and the old, there is a surge of innovation and reform … The "most beautiful" appearance of the people’s police is reflected in the retrograde charge at the critical moment and also reflected in the silent persistence of ordinary years.

  January 10th is "China People’s Police Day", and the Zhejiang Provincial Public Security Department held a press conference to announce the "Most Beautiful Zhejiang Police" in 2021. Among them, there are the "most beautiful policemen" who care about the masses and catch up with the exam in the new era, the "most beautiful auxiliary police" who dream of police camp and fight side by side with the police, and the "most beautiful police sister-in-law" who is deeply attached to her husband’s career.

  Different identities, different contributions, for the same cause, for the lights.

  "Dispel evil and reunite love"

  February 12, 2021, New Year’s Day. Li Xiaorong, director of Luoshe Police Station of Deqing County Public Security Bureau, Huzhou City, finished his work and went back to his mother’s house for a late "New Year’s Eve". When waiting for the red light on the road, I suddenly heard someone shouting loudly. Li Xiaorong, who has been a policeman for 24 years, immediately got off the bus and ran to the river.

  In the cold river, a woman is struggling up and down. The water does not pass her head from time to time, and the woman’s position is in the deep water area in the middle of the river. The situation is very critical. Li Xiaorong didn’t think much, took off his coat and jumped into the cold river, struggling to pull the woman ashore.

  When the medical staff and police officers arrived, Li Xiaorong squeezed the water on his clothes and left the scene silently.

  This "guardian blue" is not only Li Xiaorong’s unswerving leap in the days of family reunion. Tong Lijian, the deputy commander of the patrol (special) police brigade of Chun ‘an County Public Security Bureau in Hangzhou, used his quick wits to hold the suspect’s sharp knife against the child’s throat with his bare hands in just a few seconds and quickly rescue him. It is also the life-and-death rescue of Fu Yingke, a policeman of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Public Security Bureau of Shengzhou City, Shaoxing, on the way of business trip, escorting intussuscepted babies for emergency medical treatment.

  Keep evil behind you and let love reunite with the world. A group of Zhejiang police who light up the stars and help find relatives have made the realistic version of Lonely Lost have a perfect ending, making "not seeing" connected with "not leaving".

  Sui Yonghui, a policeman from Xihu Branch of Hangzhou Public Security Bureau, who is known as the "Commander-in-Chief of Tracing People", implicated the blood ties scattered in the streets and helped more than 7,000 families reunite. Ke Weili, a policeman from the Criminal Science and Technology Office of Luqiao Branch of Taizhou Public Security Bureau, used forensic technology to decipher the "reunion password", which turned the "reunion" in the DNA library into a miracle on the road to finding relatives again and again.

  "Different epaulettes, same faith"

  In the public security team, there is a group of auxiliary police who also guard the safety of one side in the name of the police. They fight side by side with the police and jointly build a safe home.

  In January 2021, Yao Forest, an auxiliary police officer of Renhuangshan Police Station of South Taihu New District Branch of Huzhou Public Security Bureau, was unfortunately injured by an exploded gas tank when handling a fire with the police. A burn photo is tearful compared with the previous one.

  When the fire went out, Yao Senlin’s hair and eyebrows were burned away, and the original delicate face was burned beyond recognition. "I didn’t know what I had become at that time. Later, I took a selfie with my mobile phone and found that I was like a different person."

  After only one and a half months’ rest, Yao Senlin returned to his post and put on his police uniform again. "Honor will eventually pass, and I will continue to protect the peace of this people." Yao Senlin, who was awarded the "most beautiful auxiliary police" this time, said.

  Cross the sea, and you will show your true colors. Zhang Chong, an auxiliary police officer of Nanmen Police Station of Haishu Branch of Ningbo Public Security Bureau, bravely stepped forward in the face of the art knife suddenly pulled out by the suspect during an arrest.

  In a dangerous situation where the neck cut by the suspect was as deep as 15 cm, Zhang Chong still held the suspect under control and arrested him with the help of his colleagues. After Zhang Chong was taken to the hospital, he was rescued with 240 stitches.

  Looking at all public security fronts, there are Tang Wenjie, an auxiliary police officer who "descended from the sky" and bravely rescued the little girl hanging outside the balcony on the 11th floor, He Dawei, an auxiliary police officer who carried out anti-fraud propaganda at his wedding, and Lin Yi, an auxiliary police officer who used his computer technology to help trace the source of the epidemic …

  They use the beauty of anti-epidemic, persistence, responsibility, serving the people and fighting for the people to interpret the "most beautiful" of the auxiliary police, either on the front line of anti-fraud, at the scene of solving crimes or at the window of handling permits.

  "You protect peace, I protect you."

  On February 25, 2021, Chen Chongke, a criminal policeman of Pingyang County Public Security Bureau in Wenzhou City, took the suspect to the hospital for a medical examination. Zhang Meila, his wife who was pregnant for six months, was waiting for a pregnancy test alone in her seat. Although her mood was a little low, Zhang Meila knew that her husband could not leave his post without leave, and advised him to work with peace of mind and insist on finishing the examination by himself …

  In peacetime, the public security team is the team that gives the most and sacrifices the most. As police sisters-in-law, they are used to their husbands frequently working overtime and running around, and also guarding the peace of their home country with their own strength.

  The epidemic situation was so fierce that one by one "police doctor families" stepped forward and went to the "epidemic" line. Zhu Ying, a respiratory physician at Wenzhou People’s Hospital, is the wife of Li Buhui, a policeman from Wenzhou Public Security Bureau. In early 2020, she was sent to Wuhan to fight the epidemic and became the first medical team member to aid Hubei in Zhejiang. In the 72 days of the expedition, she faced life and death to save lives, and her husband was on duty for a long time without taking a rest. The husband and wife became a couple of wars.

  People’s teachers, medical staff, journalists, community workers … Among the 100 "most beautiful police wives", many people give full play to their professional expertise, support public security work with practical actions, and become veritable "good wives".

  Xu Shuangshuang is the vice principal of Hangzhou Yucai Dengyun Primary School. Together with her police husband Wu Jianli, she created and published a series of children’s books "Mathematical Police" with the theme of "Mathematics+Anti-fraud", which was widely welcomed by young readers. Hua Xiaoxia, a reporter from Wenzhou Metropolis Daily, and Chen Mengyan, a traffic police husband, have been married for 12 years, and they have jointly planned to spread the "good voice" of the traffic police, calling on all sectors of society to further care for the public security police.

  The "most beautiful policeman" cannot be separated from the understanding and support of the "most beautiful police sister-in-law". He shouldered the weathered Leng Yue of the public security front with iron shoulders, and she shouldered the daily necessities of family life with soft shoulders, jointly guarding the lights of thousands of families.

Eight years of begging for a child will be empty? "Songzi Clinic" in Nigeria

In the government building of Anambra State, Nigeria, a woman named Chioma hugged her baby boy Hope tightly, with tears in her eyes and repeatedly said, "This is my own son! You see, he looks exactly like my husband! "

She and her husband Ike sat side by side on the sofa, opposite Evy Obinabo, the local Commissioner for Women’s Affairs and Social Welfare. This female official, who has handled numerous family disputes, is frowning at the file at the moment-five relatives of Ike are still sitting in the room, and they all question: "This child is definitely not his own!"

01

It started eight years ago, when Chioma and Ike got married and never got pregnant, and her husband’s family gradually lost patience.

"My mother-in-law called me a’ barren girl’ in front of the whole village, and my sister-in-law even introduced Ike to a new object." Chiaoma trembled slightly as she clutched the infant’s hand.

Last winter, she saw the small advertisement of "helping pregnant hand" on the telephone pole of the market, and found it like a straw.

The "clinic" hidden in the slum injected her with unknown drugs and announced "successful pregnancy" three months later. Chiaoma touched her flat belly with disbelief, but the clinic sent her B-ultrasound photos every week.

"Watching the little hands and feet grow up in the image, I am so happy that I can’t sleep," she suddenly became excited. "I am really pregnant for 15 months! Although it is longer than ordinary people, the child is particularly healthy! "

"Nonsense! The longest human pregnancy is only 12 months! " Ike’s cousin got angry.

Commissioner Obinabo signaled everyone to be quiet, turned around and opened the files in the computer-the screen was a photo taken by the police when they raided the clinic: boxes of baby milk powder were piled up in the simple ward, and more than a dozen pregnant women’s birth inspection records were posted on the wall, but all the names were forged.

It turns out that this is a black industrial chain. Liars first attract infertile women with "ancestral secret recipe", create the illusion of pregnancy with false tests, and buy babies from traffickers when the "due date" approaches. A survey by BBC reporters found that most of these babies came from orphanages in war-torn areas, and each child could sell for 5,000 dollars.

"Look at Hope’s birth certificate. It clearly says to deliver a baby in a public hospital." Chiaoma was still arguing, but her voice gradually dropped.

The Commissioner sighed and pointed to the official seal on the certificate: "This hospital was demolished three years ago."

Ike, who has been silent, suddenly hugged his wife: "Don’t be afraid, even if the child is not biological, we can go through the formal adoption procedure."

02

Aminah (not her real name), 35, trembled and lifted her skirt at a market in a small town in southeastern Nigeria, revealing a slightly bulging abdomen. "The doctor said it was a miracle that the fetus was growing next to my liver." She stroked her stomach with morbid hope in her eyes.

Such scenes are being staged in many corners of the country-according to United Nations data, every woman in Nigeria has an average of 4.6 children, and women who can’t get pregnant are often regarded as "the curse of the family".

BBC investigative reporters lurked for three months and finally got into an underground clinic in Lagos. In the dark consulting room, the man who claimed to be the "master of gynecology" was showing three women ultrasonic images: "Look, this is your child’s toe, although it is not easy to find it behind the kidney."

In fact, these images are all fake materials downloaded from the Internet. Women who receive so-called "embryo transfer" have to pay 300 dollars equivalent to half a year in exchange for injecting a tube of turbid liquid.

"The burning sensation of the drug injected into the body convinced me that the treatment was effective." Fioma, who was deceived in Abuja, recalled. Three weeks later, her abdomen began to swell and her menstruation stopped. These physiological changes made her completely fall into a state of doubt.

What’s more frightening is that the clinic forbids them to contact with regular medical treatment-"those quack instruments will kill your angels", so the scammers threaten.

When the "due date" approached, the scam reached its climax. In a remote farmhouse in Kano state, women in labor were asked to pay an extra $500 for "God-given oxytocin".

Kira, a 26-year-old victim, described: "They gave me an injection and the whole world began to spin. I heard the baby crying in my trance. When I woke up, I had a suture in my lower abdomen and a baby boy in my arms. " Forensic tests showed that the concentration of sedatives in her body was enough to anesthetize an adult zebra.

According to a survey conducted by the Nigerian Child Protection Organization, most of these babies come from orphanages in war-torn border areas. Criminal groups buy babies for $200 each, and then sell them at ten times the high price in the name of "God-given son".

In the latest raid, the police found 47 test tubes labeled "embryo culture solution" in the freezer of a "fertility clinic"-the actual composition is normal saline mixed with hallucinogens.

"This is not a simple fraud, but a systematic mind control." Dr. Ngozi, a clinical psychologist, analyzed that swindlers accurately use the fertility worship in traditional culture to construct a complete virtual pregnancy experience in the victim’s consciousness through drug hallucination and group hypnosis. With the deepening of the investigation, 12 transnational trafficking gangs have surfaced, and their criminal networks have even extended to the European adoption black market.

03

In a dilapidated hotel in Ihiala town, southeastern Nigeria, an absurd drama is staged on the second Saturday of every month: at 7: 00 in the morning, more than 20 women with bulging bellies have lined up in the corridor, waiting for the legendary "seeing off Guanyin" Dr. Ruth. The BBC investigation team pretended to be a couple who had not had children for eight years and knocked on the door of room 306 with an invisible camera.

At the moment when the door was opened, the waves of cheers came to my face-the woman who had just been diagnosed as "pregnant" was crying with her relatives and friends, and the room was full of glass bottles with the words "God gave the holy medicine". Dr. Ruth, wearing heavy makeup, sat on a faded velvet sofa with a forged certificate from a well-known medical college hanging on her badge.

"Congratulations on finding the right person!" She scanned our forged physical examination report. "As long as you inject this tube of genetic optimizer, you can not only get pregnant, but also choose the sex of your fetus!"

Seeing his wife’s hesitation, she immediately changed her strategy and took out a bag of crushed pills: "This is an ancestral pregnancy-promoting powder. With the same room every Tuesday and Saturday, I will see you next month." The asking price of this "basic package" is 350,000 naira, which is equivalent to the salary of local civil servants for three months.

We’ll make a follow-up visit in four weeks. Ruth slipped on the reporter’s abdomen with an imitation ultrasonic instrument, and the sound suddenly came out with a "thump" heartbeat. "twins! Or twins! " She pointed to the jumping light spot on the display-it was actually a pre-recorded video. When we asked for details, she lowered her voice: "Now we need to inject fetal nutrients, otherwise the baby will be malnourished."

This "premium package" is priced at 2 million naira, which is equivalent to a 12-fold increase in the amount of fraud.

The investigation found that the second floor of the hotel was actually a temporary delivery room. The woman who gave birth here recalled: "They gave me a pink potion, and when I woke up, my stomach was flat and there was a crying baby around me." What’s even more amazing is that the so-called "gene optimizer" is only vitamin B12 injection after testing, while the "pregnancy-promoting powder" is actually ground by antidepressants.

04

It is not clear whether these women really believe these lies. But why do they easily fall into this naked scam? The answer may be hidden in the pregnancy rumors that are rampant on social media.

"Secret pregnancy" is a recognized phenomenon in the medical field, which means that women don’t realize that they are pregnant until the late pregnancy. But the BBC survey found that Facebook groups and pages are full of false information about such pregnancies.

A woman in the United States specializes in operating the "secret pregnancy" homepage, claiming that she has been pregnant for many years, and this experience cannot be explained scientifically. In the closed group of Facebook, many posts package this false "treatment" as a "miracle" in religious terms, claiming that it can help infertile women. These rumors make it easier for women to believe in scams.

Not only Nigerians participated in the group, but also women from South Africa, the Caribbean and the United States. Liars sometimes join groups and take the initiative to contact women who are interested in "treatment". Once someone expresses their willingness to participate, they will be dragged into a more secretive WhatsApp group, where the administrator will introduce the so-called "secret clinic" and its operation process.

In February this year, when the police raided Chioma’s "childbirth" clinic, the shocking picture revealed the bloody truth-behind the seemingly formal clinic building, there was a darkroom where 17-year-old pregnant women were imprisoned. Some of these girls were abandoned by their boyfriends, and some could not afford illegal abortion, and finally sold their own flesh and blood for 470,000 naira.

"They lied to me that their children would be sent to wealthy families to study." 19-year-old Wu Zhu (pseudonym) stroked the scar of caesarean section and sobbed. This girl, who was forced to be separated from her newborn, still has photos of "adopted families" sent by fraudsters in her mobile phone-it was later confirmed that they were all online maps.

05

After four hours of intense inquiry, Commissioner Obinabo finally made a ruling. She pushed a pile of DNA test reports in front of Chiaoma: "Legally speaking, you are not the birth mother of this child." After saying his word, Chiaoma suddenly fell to his knees, and Hope in his arms burst into tears.

"Please look at this!" Ike took out his mobile phone trembling and played a heartbreaking video-Ricky Omar was singing a lullaby to a fake pregnant belly with wet tears hanging from his eyes. The man who has been married for eight years choked: "She reads to the’ fetus’ every day, knits more than 30 baby clothes, and even suffers from prenatal depression."

Finally, Obinabo sighed: "You can raise Hope temporarily, but on one condition-"She pointed to the poster of the African Convention for the Protection of Children on the wall. "If you can’t find your biological parents within three years, you must go through the formal channels for adoption."

When she walked out of the government building, Chiaoma wrapped Hope more tightly. On the telephone pole on the street corner, the small advertisement of "Bao Sheng Boy" rattled in the wind. Dr. Ngozi, a child psychologist, looked at their backs and said, "Let a fake mother go today, and ten real liars will emerge tomorrow. Unless we stop using the uterus to define the value of women, such a tragedy will never end. "

The data shows that there are 1,200 new similar scams in Nigeria every year, but only 3% of the cases are exposed. In neighboring Benin, there are even whole villages involved in baby trafficking. As Adoula, a volunteer of abduction, said: "When the whole society regards fertility as a female examination paper, cheating becomes an inevitable choice."

A kiss of death or a kiss of wedding? In 2022, we will witness the meeting of two stars!

If the probability that two strangers meet and fall in love in the vast sea of people is very small, how likely are the two stars in the vast universe to meet and merge?

At the just-concluded American Astronomical Society, Larry Molnar, an astronomy professor from Calvin College in the United States, released an exciting news: around March 2022, two low-quality stars in the Milky Way will merge.

As soon as the news was published, it aroused strong public interest. After all, not many humans have the opportunity to witness the merger of two stars in their lifetime.

Where are these two stars? How far is it from us? What force created this shocking collision? How many years will the merger of these two behemoths last? Dinosaurs just witnessed the encounter between a comet and a planet, and they were almost wiped out. Then, five years later, when these two stars finally collided, what wonders will we witness? What impact will this collision have on our home planet Earth?

Let’s explore it in detail and do some homework in advance for this cosmic "encounter".

Figure 1: The red dot represents the position of the merged binary system.

1800 light years away: long gestation and rapid merger

As you probably know, in our galaxy, there is a constellation Cygnus, and these two merging stars are in Cygnus. They form a star binary system called KIC 9832227, which is about 1800 light years away from us.

As early as January 2015, Professor molnar and others published relevant contents at the American Astronomical Society, and identified KIC 9832227 as a binary system that is likely to be merged.

They analyzed the data of this system from 1999 to 2014, and found that its cycle was continuously decreasing, and the decreasing trend was very similar to that before the outbreak of Scorpio V1309, and there was also a star merger event in Scorpio V1309. In 2015-2016, Professor molnar and others used further observation data to verify their previous inference, and finally confirmed that the system would be merged one day.

However, there are as many as 200 billion to 400 billion stars in the Milky Way, and nearly one third of them are located in binary or multi-star systems. It seems not uncommon for two stars in a binary system to merge.

Is this really the case? This requires us to understand the classification of binary systems first.

We can easily understand the "binary star system", that is, a system consists of two celestial bodies; These two celestial bodies can be ordinary stars or dense celestial bodies with high density, such as neutron stars or black holes.

In astronomy, we can classify binary systems according to many standards, one of which is the distance between two celestial bodies. For a "wide binary", the two celestial bodies are far apart and have little interaction. Two celestial bodies that are close to each other are called "close binaries", and it is possible for them to influence each other or transmit matter. Among the numerous binary systems in the Milky Way, there are only about 40,000 pairs of close binary stars, which can be said to be very rare.

Some close binary stars are too "intimate" and even come into contact, so we call them "contact binary". In an extreme case, the passing binary stars are so "close" that the two celestial bodies share the same external gas envelope. Generally speaking, it takes millions or billions of years for them to reach the stage of sharing the cladding, and once they enter the stage of sharing the cladding, the two stars will merge quickly, taking only a few months or years. Compared with the long years before sharing the envelope, the process of merger is like a blink of an eye, which is like a couple who have been in love for a marathon and then got married quickly after proposing marriage.

The binary star system KIC 9832227 mentioned above is in the final stage of shared cladding. According to the existing theoretical estimation, the two stars will merge in about five years.

Figure 2: (left): Imagination diagram before merger; (right): Numerical simulation diagram before merger.

The merger of binary stars will bring us a bright new star.

According to the current spectral data analysis, the mass of the two stars to be merged does not exceed 0.4 solar mass, which belongs to the category of the least mass stars we know. They look red, and the surface temperature is about two or three thousand degrees Celsius. Judging from the current observation, the two stars have not merged, and their apparent brightness is about 12 magnitude, which has completely exceeded the lowest limit that human eyes can see (6 magnitude), so we can only observe with the help of telescopes. (Magnitude is a unit used to measure the brightness of celestial bodies. The higher the brightness of stars, the lower the magnitude value; Sirius, the brightest star we see at night, is about 0 magnitude. )

The whole process of merging these two stars will last for several weeks, which is like a flash compared with their life span of 10 billion years. In this "instant", their brightness will rapidly increase by 100,000 times, and the apparent brightness can reach about 2 stars. It will look as bright as Polaris, second only to the three brightest stars we see in the northern sky: Sirius (-1 magnitude), Vega (0 magnitude) and Antares (1 magnitude).

The result of this binary merger is that there is a new bright star in our night sky for the time being, and its color is still red, so we call it "red star". This new star will exist for at least 10 billion years, so why do we say that there is a new bright star "temporarily"? Because it will only be bright for a few weeks, and then it will fade away and hide in the darkness beyond our naked eyes in the vast universe.

The gravitational wave generated by the merger of two black holes in 2015 attracted the attention of the whole world. So, will the merger of these two stars also generate gravitational waves five years later?

The answer is yes. The merger of binary stars will also release gravitational waves with a certain energy, but it is very small and almost negligible. Almost all the energy is concentrated in the electromagnetic wave, so we can only rely on traditional telescopes for observation. The gravitational wave observatory (LIGO) in the United States should not be able to detect this merger.

The merger of binary stars has brought us a bright new star. Will it also bring some dangers?

If we want to predict the impact of this event on life on earth, we need to know how much energy is released during the merger process and whether it will have any impact on the earth’s atmosphere.

There is no doubt that the merger of two celestial bodies will produce explosions and release a lot of energy at the same time, but the amount of energy released depends on the density of the merged celestial bodies. For example, the merger of two neutron stars will produce a so-called gamma-ray burst, which will release a thousand times the energy of a supernova in about 1-2 seconds and produce extremely strong gamma rays-astronomers have discussed the impact of such bursts on the earth-if such celestial bodies erupt at us not too far away in or outside the Milky Way, life on earth will be doomed.

However, we don’t have to worry that the merger of these two small stars will have any impact on life on earth. Compared with the merger of other dense celestial bodies, the energy released by the merger of these two stars is very small, even less than the energy generated by some normal stars, not to mention the energy generated by them is mainly in the optical band. We’d better watch the beautiful red star with peace of mind.

Standing on the shoulder of Scorpio V1309, waiting for the new star.

Theoretically speaking, astronomers always believe that the merger of low-mass binary stars is one of the cradles for the birth of slightly larger stars. However, the real observation has only made some progress in recent decades, which is attributed to the development of some large-scale astronomical survey projects and the improvement of computer processing power. In the past decades, astronomers have observed similar explosions many times, such as M31 RV in the Large Magellanic Cloud in 1988, V4332 in Sagittarius in the Milky Way in 1994, and V838 system in Unicorn in 2002-these explosions may represent merger events, but we are not completely sure.

It was not until 2006 that humans really confirmed a binary merger. The supernova search project of the Lick Observatory found the explosion of M85 OT2006-1 in the M85 galaxy 60 million light years away from the Earth. Astronomers from the University of California, Berkeley and California Institute of Technology made a detailed analysis, and found that the explosion originated from the merger of two low-mass binary stars, which was different from other known nova explosions. However, due to the lack of monitoring information before the outbreak, we are very lack of understanding of the binary system before the merger. In this year, according to the observations, astronomers gave a name to the new star formed by the merger of binary stars: "luminous red novae".

The key to really help astronomers solve the mystery of "Red Nova" is hidden in Scorpio V1309. This system was first discovered by astronomy enthusiasts in China and Japan, and then they submitted the relevant information to the astronomical variable source monitoring organization of the International Astronomical Union. However, the detailed data of Scorpio V1309 comes from an optical gravitational lensing experiment (abbreviated as OGLE;; Optical gravity lens experiment). The project was officially started by astronomers of Warsaw University in Poland in 2001. The original intention was to monitor a large area of the sky, hoping to find celestial sources with changing brightness and discover the phenomenon of gravitational lens, so as to test some celestial bodies, such as black holes, which were originally thought to constitute dark matter. The location of Scorpio V1309 is just within the monitoring sky area of OGLE, so astronomers have obtained a large number of long-term observation data before and after the outbreak. Subsequent data analysis not only confirmed that this is a "red nova" system (a system after the merger of two stars), but also provided us with more important information, that is, how this binary system evolved with time before the merger.

It is on the basis of observation data and modeling before the merger of Scorpio V1309 system that Professor molnar and others judged the system evolution of KIC 9832227, and predicted that the "close contact" between the two stars and the final merger would take place between September 2021 and September 2022.
