After the outbreak of COVID-19, all aspects of our lives have been greatly impacted, and education is also an area that has been deeply influenced and changed. Due to the demand of prevention and control, face-to-face teaching was forced to stop. In order to solve the teaching problems of all kinds of students, especially those in the basic education stage, an upsurge of online teaching has been set off around the world since 2020.

Our country has also responded quickly in developing online teaching. As early as January 29, 2020, the Ministry of Education issued a notice: advocating the use of online platforms to achieve "suspension of classes without stopping teaching and learning", so as to gradually restore the order of education and teaching. Subsequently, major universities, primary and secondary schools responded to the call and began to implement online teaching. Although offline teaching was also carried out during the slow epidemic, it was not until this year that offline campus teaching was basically completely restored. It should be said that the implementation of online teaching not only protects the health of teachers and students, but also minimizes the impact of the epidemic on teaching activities.

Of course, the emergence and application of anything new has a complicated impact. There are many difficulties and challenges, but it also brings innovation and hope. With the small series, we will sort out and summarize the influence and enlightenment brought to us by the online courses in the next three years in stages.

Chapter 1

Past lives of online class

As a new teaching method, Internet teaching has two main ways: live teaching and recorded teaching. Live teaching is the real-time classroom teaching and interaction with the help of the network platform, such as the popular Zoom abroad, the Tencent conference commonly used in domestic universities, and all kinds of nails that are collectively scored low by primary school students. Live teaching is equivalent to "moving" the classroom to the network platform. Recording and broadcasting teaching means uploading course videos and related materials made in advance on the network platform for learners to view and learn by themselves. The pioneer of recording and broadcasting teaching is the famous Coursera, and there are similar platforms in China, such as Netease Open Class and China University MOOC.

In fact, before the epidemic, Internet teaching had a broad audience in China, mainly concentrated in college students and adult self-learners. Online courses are widely used in all kinds of postgraduate entrance examinations, overseas examinations and civil service examinations, which makes large-scale training and teaching possible. When Xiao Bian was preparing to go abroad for the exam n years ago, he participated in the GRE full-course and braille class of an institution. At that time, YY voice platform was adopted for online teaching.

Compared with adult learners, students in the basic education stage had less opportunities to contact online teaching before the "online class tide". For basic education, classroom education is not only a form of imparting knowledge, but also an important place for students to make friends and complete socialization. Therefore, compared with the online teaching of graduate students like Xiaobian, students and teachers in primary and secondary schools have encountered many problems in the process of accepting online teaching.

Chapter 2

Difficulties and challenges in online courses

The first challenge that online classes bring to teachers and students in primary and secondary schools is the technical problem. First of all, in terms of network and equipment, some students can’t get a stable network connection due to economic constraints, or they don’t have computers at home. Many students use mobile devices to attend online classes, which may damage their eyesight because of the small screen. In terms of acceptance, primary school students’ acceptance is greater than that of high school students, which may be related to the complexity of the teaching content.

Teachers also have similar network and equipment problems, but what teachers reflect more is their unfamiliarity with teaching software and lack of live broadcast experience. How to organize teaching and interaction in virtual environment is a big challenge for teachers, especially for older teachers, who need to spend more time getting familiar with and applying new technologies. The research points out that most primary and secondary school teachers have negative emotions such as "nervousness and anxiety" when they just turn to online teaching. After using it for a period of time, with the improvement of teachers’ mastery of new technologies, their self-confidence in online teaching has also improved significantly. Technology-related problems are obvious in the initial stage of online course application. With the increase of familiarity, most of the problems have been solved.

Compared with technical problems, the quality of online teaching is the focus of attention. In a nationwide survey of online classes in primary and secondary schools, most parents said that they didn’t recognize the effect of their children’s learning. The main reason was that parents thought that their children’s autonomous learning ability was poor, and they could not effectively supervise and restrain their children because the teachers were not present. Common problems such as absent-mindedness, inattention in listening, and inattention in completing homework. On social media, Xiao Bian also saw a post. A teacher opened the teaching software to check the homework, only to find that the homework photos uploaded by the students were net maps, and all the students uploaded the same photo. What’s even more outrageous is that in order to avoid the teacher’s discovery, some students added different filters to the photos, and when they saw the students’ "Sao operation", the teacher also said that he was speechless.

The classroom in colleges and universities needs more interaction and discussion between teachers and students, while in online courses, teachers and students lack opportunities for face-to-face communication. The form of online teaching is like a "enough paper" for communication and interaction. Although it is only a thin layer, it is difficult to attract students to break it in class. Without asking to turn on the camera, many students are confused, lying down and listening to classes while walking, and the learning effect is naturally not good.

In addition, due to the differences of students’ family environment and family relationship, online teaching will amplify the influence of family background on students. Children from wealthy families will have a better learning environment and a better learning effect than children from low-income families. Therefore, how to improve the teaching quality of online teaching for students in compulsory education stage is a subject worth studying in the future.

Chapter 3

Surprises and opportunities brought by online courses

The popularity of online teaching has promoted the development of internet teaching technology, innovated teaching methods and promoted the development of various online teaching platforms and software. As a nail, the school-based function is convenient for teachers to check and correct homework and improve teaching efficiency. In the process of developing online courses, teachers have innovated teaching methods and accumulated teaching experience supported by new technologies.

Although some students are even more reluctant to participate in interaction in online classes, due to the absence of the Internet, some students who are usually silent in the classroom can participate in classroom interaction more actively after switching to the Internet platform, which is also a pleasant surprise in online teaching.

In the process of online teaching, parents’ participation in their children’s education has increased significantly. Due to the absence of teachers, parents assume the role of supervision and management of their children, which gives many parents who are usually busy with their work and less involved in their children’s studies an opportunity to get to know their children better. In the process of supervising and tutoring children’s homework, the interaction between parents and children has also increased significantly, which is helpful to improve family relations (of course, when the academic performance is not good, it will also have the opposite effect).

The popularity of online courses has also greatly enriched Internet educational resources. In the past, some teaching resources that were difficult to retrieve on the Internet can now be easily found on various platforms, which will help reduce the cost of education and give everyone a more equal opportunity to obtain educational resources. Some things that you used to have to take remedial classes can now be found on the Internet. At the same time, the online teaching resources have realized "paperless" teaching and learning, which is conducive to saving resources and protecting the environment.

More importantly, the popularity of online courses is a new opportunity for friends who are interested in lifelong learning and improve themselves through self-study. For example, on Coursera, you can hear courses from top universities in the world, such as Harvard University and University of California, Berkeley, and most of them are provided free of charge. If your English is not very good, there are many Chinese Coursera courses for you to choose from in Netease open class. The bridge of the internet allows many people who have no chance to study abroad to dream of famous schools. The popularity of online courses is a great boon for lifelong learners.

To sum up, although online education has encountered some difficulties and challenges in the initial stage of application, it is very valuable in the long run. Online teaching not only promotes the innovation of teaching technology, but also greatly enriches educational resources; It greatly reduces the cost of receiving education, is conducive to the popularization and sinking of knowledge, and improves the overall quality of the people. Therefore, in the future, as educators, we should pay more attention to the value of online education and focus on solving the problems found in the teaching process, so that online education can benefit a wider group.

The company is suspected of huge fraud! Securities and futures commission strikes hard.

After Henan Xinye Textile Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "*ST Xinfang" or "Xinye Textile") was put on file by the Securities and Futures Commission on March 21st, the regulatory authorities dealt with it strictly and promptly. In just over a month, the case quickly ushered in new progress.

The CSRC believes that the above-mentioned behavior of Xinye Textile is suspected of violating the provisions of Article 63 of the Securities Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) revised in 2005 (hereinafter referred to as the Securities Law of 2005) and the second paragraph of Article 78 of the Securities Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) revised in 2019 (hereinafter referred to as the Securities Law), which constitutes the first paragraph of Article 193 of the Securities Law of 2005 and Article 100 of the Securities Law.

Strict supervision and management, and heavy punches are also reflected in the precise attack on the "key minority." According to the Advance Notice of Administrative Punishment and Market Prohibition, Wei Xuezhu was then the chairman of Xinye Textile, and organized and planned the illegal information disclosure involving a long time and huge amount, which seriously disrupted the order of the securities market. According to the relevant regulations, the CSRC intends to decide to ban Wei Xuezhu from the securities market for life.

As director, deputy general manager, then chief financial officer and secretary of the board of directors of Xinye Textile, Xu Qinzhi organized and implemented financial fraud according to Wei Xuezhu’s instructions, and the circumstances were serious. According to the relevant regulations, the CSRC intends to decide to ban Xu Qinzhi from the securities market for 10 years.

Financial fraud touches the bottom line of the capital market and must be resolutely cracked down. Recently, the CSRC has repeatedly stressed that it will continue to strengthen the supervision of listed companies, crack down on financial fraud, illegal occupation and other illegal acts, and effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of investors.

The responsible comrades of the relevant departments of the CSRC said that in the next step, the CSRC will strengthen joint efforts with various regions and departments to build a comprehensive punishment and prevention system to combat financial fraud, focusing on cracking down on five types of behaviors. First, long-term systematic fraud and third-party cooperation fraud, for the planners and helpers of fraud, we must seriously pursue responsibility and resolutely break the "ecological circle" of fraud. The second is the fraudulent issuance of stocks and bonds. We must resolutely keep counterfeiters out of the capital market and resolutely remove those who have mixed in. The third is the financial "bathing" behavior of abusing accounting policies and accounting estimates and adjusting profits at will. The fourth is the act of counterfeiting through financing trade, "idling" and "taking orders". Fifth, a series of fraudulent acts accompanied in the process of encroaching on the interests of listed companies and hollowing out listed companies.

Facing multiple delisting risks

It is noteworthy that the company also faces multiple delisting risks.

On the evening of April 28th, the company issued an announcement about the delisting risk warning of the company’s shares being superimposed, and the company received the Notice on the same day. According to the "Notice", it is found that Xinye Textile has illegal facts such as inflated business income, inflated business cost, inflated inventory, inflated research and development expenses, inflated profits and so on. The aforementioned matters may touch on the situation of forced delisting due to major violations of laws, and the company’s shares may be forced to be delisted due to major violations of laws. At present, the company is verifying the illegal facts and financial data of the Notice, and the final result is subject to the formal decision. The company will continue to pay attention to and disclose relevant information in time after receiving the formal punishment decision.

There are other risks of termination of listing in the company’s stock. On the evening of April 28th, the company announced that the matters that caused the company’s 2022 financial report to be unable to express opinions by audit institutions included: correction of accounting errors in the previous period, major defects in internal control of financial reports, and major uncertainties related to going concern. The company’s 2023 annual financial report is intended to be issued by the audit institution with non-standard opinions, thus touching the delisting situation.

At the same time, according to the relevant regulations, listed companies that only issue A shares in Shenzhen Stock Exchange will be terminated if the daily closing price of their shares is lower than that of 1 yuan for 20 consecutive trading days. As of the disclosure date of this announcement, the closing price of the company’s shares has been lower than that of 1 yuan for 18 consecutive trading days. If the closing price of the company’s shares is lower than that of 1 yuan for 20 consecutive trading days, the company’s shares will be terminated from listing, and investors will be reminded to pay attention to investment risks.

Up to now, the company has not disclosed the 2023 annual report. According to the suggestive announcement issued by the company on April 26 on delaying the disclosure of the 2023 annual report, the 2023 annual report of the company postponed the disclosure date to April 30. According to the company’s announcement on April 28th, the company’s 2023 annual financial report is intended to be audited by an audit institution with non-standard opinions, thus touching the delisting situation. From this calculation, the company may first touch the financial delisting index.

"The above-mentioned cases have released the heavy signal that the CSRC insists on cracking down on financial fraud. Through this case, we find that securities supervision and law enforcement is by no means a "three cups of fines", let alone a "break the money to avoid disaster" and get rid of it once. It will help to rebuild a good market ecology by attacking counterfeiters who try their own laws and hitting "don’t dare to do it again", which will make them learn a lesson and remember for a long time, especially for vicious illegal acts such as financial fraud. Lv Chenglong, an associate professor at Shenzhen University Law School, thinks.

Lv Chenglong also said that at present, with the start of a new round of delisting reform, the number of "delisting contacts" for financial fraud has increased. Among them, the revision of the delisting rules proposes to strictly apply the scope of major illegal delisting, lower the threshold for two years of financial fraud to trigger major illegal delisting, and add one year of serious fraud and years of continuous fraud delisting. "In the future, these measures will help build a safe, standardized, transparent, open, dynamic and resilient capital market." Lv Chenglong said.

The chairman of Guangxi Yicheng Investment Company took bribes of 4.93 million yuan and donated 500,000 yuan to his hometown.

On August 20th, Feng Rong Zhen was sentenced to 12 years’ imprisonment by Fangchenggang Intermediate People’s Court for gambling. @ Guangxi News Network

Fangchenggang, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, with its back to the southwest and facing Southeast Asia, has experienced rapid economic development and rapid urban construction in recent years with its special geographical advantages along the coast. With the large-scale development of urban construction, corruption has also been quietly bred. Feng Rong Zhen, former chairman and general manager of Fangchenggang Urban Construction Investment Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Urban Investment Company), embarked on the road of corruption in the process of urban road construction. Feng Rong Zhen’s bribery case, which was investigated and prosecuted by Fangchenggang City Procuratorate, was recently pronounced by the court in the first instance. Feng Rong Zhen was sentenced to 12 years’ imprisonment for accepting bribes of 4.93 million yuan and confiscated 500,000 yuan of personal property.

The road has been transformed into a "road to collect money"

Beibu Gulf Avenue (formerly Xinggang Avenue) in Fangchenggang City is the main road of the city. It comes out of the toll station in Fangchenggang City and directly enters Beibu Gulf Avenue. In order to meet the needs of urban development, in 2010, Fangchenggang Municipal Government decided to completely transform the original Xinggang Avenue to improve the overall taste of the city.

Fangchenggang City Investment Company is a wholly state-owned enterprise invested and established by the municipal government. Its business scope mainly includes: construction investment and management of urban infrastructure projects, comprehensive development of real estate, wholesale and retail of building and decoration materials, nursery stock management and greening project undertaking, etc. It is also the owner of the above-mentioned Xinggang Avenue reconstruction project. Feng Rong Zhen, the chairman and general manager of the company, holds the important decision-making power in the construction, project payment, completion acceptance, project settlement and other aspects of the project, and is of course the object of public relations of many bosses of the project construction party.

In two blocks of road reconstruction project from Yuluoling to Daoshuiao on Xinggang Avenue, a construction engineering company is the contractor, and Ma is the manager of the contractor. Feng Rong Zhen and Ma know each other because of their business ties. In order to get Rong Zhen’s attention, Ma often sends some gifts to bring them closer together.

One night in May 2011, Ma called Feng Rong Zhen and said that he would send some tea, and agreed to meet him at Taoyuan Street in the port area. Rong Zhen drove to Taoyuan Street and stopped. When Ma saw that Rong Zhen’s car arrived, he came to Rong Zhen’s car with a schoolbag and said, "Mr. Feng, this is the tea I gave you." Say that finish and left. Holding this heavy schoolbag, Feng Rong Zhen knew it well. When he opened it, he found that there was RMB cash in 100 yuan denomination, and each bundle was bound with plastic tape, making a total of 1 million yuan in cash.

Why did Ma send 1 million yuan in cash? There is not much communication between them. Afterwards, Feng Rong Zhen said: Maybe because I am the chairman and general manager of the city investment company, I will send money to me in order to get my care in the construction, project payment, completion acceptance and project settlement of the project. However, Ma has never verbally asked me for any care and help, and I have never deliberately taken care of or made things difficult for Ma or the construction party in my work. In Feng Rong Zhen’s view, even accepting money, as long as it is not deliberately taken care of at work, is not a bribe.

As a matter of fact, Feng Rong Zhen took care of the construction party in the process of organizing two blocks of projects, and received a total of 1.47 million yuan from Ma, the person in charge of the construction party, for six times.

In addition, Feng Rong Zhen also took care of the construction party in other bid projects, and received 560,000 yuan and 200,000 yuan from two other construction party leaders, Yang and Liu, five times.

The reconstruction project of Xinggang Avenue has become a "way to collect money" for Rong Zhen. After the completion of the project, there are serious quality problems, especially the section from Yuluoling to Daoshui ‘ao. Not long after the renovation, the pavement is pitted and uneven, which seriously affects the travel of citizens and the overall image of the city. The masses are quite complaining about this.

Bonded Logistics Center in Fangchenggang City

Building a "road network" is good for "fishing" money

In the process of urban construction in Fangchenggang City, "road network engineering" is a word with high frequency. The owners of major road network engineering such as "three horizontal and two vertical" road network engineering in the administrative center area and the road network engineering in the municipal bonded logistics center are all Fangchenggang City Investment Company. As the head of the company, Feng Rong Zhen will naturally receive many "sugar-coated shells".

One afternoon before the Spring Festival in 2010, Liu, the owner of the road network project, called to meet Rong Zhen. After the meeting, Liu took out two bags of things from the car and put them in the trunk of Rong Zhen’s car. He said, "Mr. Feng, this is 2 million yuan in cash, of which 800,000 yuan was returned to you by a friend of yours, and the other 1.2 million yuan is my own gift." Liu left after he finished speaking.

Rong Zhen didn’t say much and didn’t check the money, so he took it back to Fangchenggang and lent it to his brother to run his personal business. Feng Rong Zhen knows very well that the money came entirely for his own rights. Liu is the manager of the construction party of Fangchenggang’s "three horizontals and two verticals" road network project and Fangchenggang Bonded Logistics Center road network project. Liu wants to be taken care of in terms of project construction, project payment, completion acceptance and project settlement before sending this 1.2 million yuan.

After verification, in addition to the above-mentioned road network project, Feng Rong Zhen took care of the construction party in the process of organizing the construction of a bid section of North-South Avenue, the earthwork project of Fangchenggang Vocational Education Center, the Bailu Park project, and the road reconstruction project of Yuluoling-Daoshuiao section of Xinggang Avenue, and received a total of 2.5 million yuan from Liu, the person in charge of the construction party, three times.

Feng Rong Zhen not only lavished money on big projects, but also spared some small projects. Feng Rong Zhen gave convenience to the project contractor in the process of purchasing and installing weak current system engineering equipment for Fangchenggang City Investment Company’s comprehensive building project, and accepted 100,000 yuan; In the process of building a bid section of Dongwan Avenue in Fangchenggang City, he gave convenience to the project contractor Yang and accepted 100,000 yuan in cash.

500,000 yuan of stolen money was donated to my hometown.

In 2014, the procuratorate of Fangchenggang launched a massive special campaign to crack down on duty crimes in state-owned enterprises. During this campaign, nine people, including Feng Rong Zhen, chairman and general manager of Fangchenggang City Investment Company, and Zhang Hengyu, deputy general manager, were investigated for criminal responsibility.

Feng Rong Zhen was born in an ordinary family in Gongcheng County, Guilin. He was determined to get ahead from an early age, and then he was admitted to the university through hard work and worked as a postgraduate. Because of his outstanding work performance, Feng Rong Zhen had a smooth career path. At the age of 31, he was appointed as the director of Fangchenggang Fangcheng District Construction Bureau. Before he was 40, he became the chairman and general manager of Fangchenggang Urban Construction Investment Co., Ltd., a member of the party group of the Municipal Development and Reform Commission, and the deputy director and deputy director of the municipal major project construction office. Because of the struggle as a child, Feng Rong Zhen has a deep affection for his hometown, and he never forgets what he can do for his hometown. In fact, Rong Zhen also took action, but in a shameful way.

In the process of investigating Feng Rong Zhen’s case, when tracing the whereabouts of the stolen money, a sum of stolen money attracted everyone’s attention: from 2010 to the end of 2013, Feng Rong Zhen invested about 500,000 yuan in building bridges, roads and Little Square in his hometown of Gongcheng County, and the money was paid by his brother Feng.

The 4.93 million yuan illegally accepted by Feng Rong Zhen was mainly used for buying houses, investing in mining partnerships and personal consumption, in addition to investing in public welfare undertakings. Feng Rongzhen spent 1.4 million yuan to buy a property in Nanning at the end of 2009; In 2012, in my hometown of Gongcheng County, I invested 500,000 yuan to mine in partnership with my relatives.

In the investigation stage, the case-handling organ recovered 489,000 yuan from Feng Rong Zhen’s bank account and stock account, and recovered 100,000 yuan from others, and his relatives withdrew 300,000 yuan from the court during the trial stage, and a total of 889,000 yuan was withdrawn before and after Feng Rong Zhen.

On February 2nd this year, Feng Rong Zhen’s suspected bribery case was heard in the Fangchenggang Intermediate People’s Court. Facing the accusation of the procuratorate, Feng Rong Zhen confessed his criminal facts. Because he voluntarily surrendered himself and truthfully confessed his criminal behavior, he pleaded guilty with a good attitude and withdrew part of the money, the court finally gave him a lighter punishment and made the above judgment according to law.

When the gavel fell, Feng Rong Zhen’s expression was dim, and his hard work and high spirits were all gone with a verdict.

Ten tips on the Spring Festival: Why is the Spring Festival also called Xinzheng and Yuanri?

  BEIJING, Beijing, January 22 (Reporter Shangguan Yun) "The sound of firecrackers is one year old, and the spring breeze warms Tu Su." Another Spring Festival is coming, and people greet the long-awaited Lunar New Year with rich and varied festival customs.

  Meng Lingfa, an associate professor at chongqing technology and business university College of Law and Sociology, mentioned in an exclusive interview with Zhongxin.com that the Spring Festival reflects the exchange between the old and the new in natural time and space, and has a beautiful meaning of getting rid of the old, praying for the good fortune, giving thanks first and reuniting the family.

  In fact, no matter how the customs change, the Spring Festival is always a reunion festival valued by Chinese, and it also reflects the profoundness and long history of Chinese excellent traditional culture from all aspects.

  1. What is the meaning of the Spring Festival?

  Spring Festival is one of the most important traditional festivals in China. As the saying goes, "one hundred years is the first" and "four seasons spring is the first", which reflects the exchange of old and new natural time and space.

  Therefore, as a title of "Year", the Spring Festival has a beautiful meaning of getting rid of the old and spreading the new, praying for happiness, giving thanks and family reunion in various sacrificial ceremonies and celebrations.

  In essence, "Chinese New Year" can also be regarded as a time period. In ancient times, there was no word "Spring Festival", but "the first day of the first month" was often called Yuanshuo, Yuanri, SGD, New Year’s Day, Zhengri, Yuanchen or Xinzheng.

  Meng Lingfa said that until the Republic of China, "the first day of the first month" was named "Spring Festival" and it has been used ever since.

  Second, why is the Spring Festival called Xinzheng?

  Among the various names of the Spring Festival, "Xinzheng" has been widely used since the Sui and Tang Dynasties. For example, Meng Haoran’s poem "The New Year’s Eve will be a happy house in Zhang Shaofu" says: "The old plum blossoms sing, and the new Zhengbai wine bottle."

  In Yuan Xi, an old story of Wulin, Zhou Mi of the Song Dynasty wrote: "As soon as you enter the new school, the lights are getting brighter." In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the name "Xinzheng" was also continued. In "Cold Swallow in Pingshan", a mountain man wrote: "Because I spent the New Year at home at the end of the year, Xinzheng got up and took office."

  The title of "Zhengri" may have appeared in the Han Dynasty. In the Book of Beginners of Tang Xujian, four quotations from the Four People’s Moon Order of Han Dynasty said: "The first day of the first month is called Zhengri." Whether it’s a new day or a new day, these titles all reflect the ancient people’s understanding of the first day of the New Year.

  In essence, these words have certain beautiful meanings. No matter which word is used to refer to "the first day of the first month", the concepts such as "new", "positive" and "yuan" embodied in it all show people’s time positioning for the beginning of a year and their recognition of Vientiane’s renewal.

  Third, how to set the festival with the beginning of the year?

  The Spring Festival can become a traditional festival in China, and it has experienced a long development process, which is also related to the choice of calendar.

  According to Meng Lingfa, China has a very long history of observing images and giving time, but there are still differences from one dynasty to another, which has a direct impact on the tradition of observing festivals at the beginning of the year.

  In ancient times, people took the Big Dipper as the benchmark, and determined that "bucket handle Huiyin" was Chunzheng and "beginning of spring, who built Zhengyin Moon", was the beginning of the year. This is exactly the method of the era of the main branch, or the star calendar.

  Simply speaking, the first month of the summer calendar is in Meng Chun, the first month of the business calendar is in winter and December, and the first month of the week calendar is in winter and November. After Qin unified the six countries, the Qin calendar (Zhuan Xu calendar) was adopted, and the first month was set in October.

  In the early Han Dynasty, the Qin calendar was used. By the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, astronomers Tang Dou, Luo Xiahong, Deng Ping, etc., while absorbing the solar terms, made the "taichu calendar" and restored the first day of the spring of the summer calendar as the beginning of the year. This laid the time foundation for today’s Spring Festival, and Luoxiahong, a native of Langzhong, Sichuan, became the "first person in the Spring Festival" recognized by contemporary scholars and was regarded as the "grandfather of the year".

  4. Why was "Nian" extended to the name of the year?

  Nowadays, when people mention the Spring Festival, they always say "Spring Festival". Meng Lingfa explained that "Nian" belongs to the word "He", and Xu Shen wrote "Nian" as "Bang" in Shuo Wen Jie Zi, which means "which is the valley".

  "Gu Liang Chuan Huan Gong Three Years" records that "all grains are ripe for years". Based on this, "year" has the meaning of "year achievement", that is, "one year’s harvest" Based on this original meaning, "year" gradually extended to the meaning of expressing time, and thus concepts such as "year festival", "age", "anniversary" and "age" appeared.

  The same is true of the "year" of "Chinese New Year". As the so-called "spring planting", "summer hoeing", "autumn harvest" and "winter storage" go round and round, it is not difficult to understand that people regard "Chinese New Year" as a festival to celebrate the harvest.

  In addition, "food is the most important thing for the people" and "community" and "millet" are extremely important to people, and in such an important period of the Spring Festival, posting Spring Festival couplets with the meaning of "bumper harvest", holding performances of "social fire" and "social drama", and praying for "good weather" and "bumper harvest" have become very important belief activities.

  5. What is the relationship between New Year’s Eve and Spring Festival?

  From the time point of view, New Year’s Eve is connected with the Spring Festival, but it has its origin, that is, "expelling diseases and ghosts". Han stone reliefs have "Nuo Opera Map", and Song Yi’s painting "Da Nuo Map" is proof.

  Meng Lingfa explained that the original meaning of "except" is "transaction" and "evening" means "night", and this day is generally on the 30 th of the twelfth lunar month, commonly known as "the 30 th of the year" It is night people who "stay up all night", which is commonly called "keeping the old age".

  Therefore, from its original meaning, it can mean "abandoning the old and welcoming the new" and "exorcising evil spirits and avoiding filth" on the last night of the year. Therefore, there are similarities and differences between Spring Festival and New Year’s Eve, and the former can also include the latter to some extent — — Folk custom says that "it is the year after Laba", and "Year" is called "Spring Festival" in modern and contemporary society.

  In addition, according to different kinship, people go to relatives’ homes to pay New Year greetings at different times from the first day of junior high school. For example, in some places, they "return to their parents’ homes" on the second day of junior high school and "aunts and uncles" on the third day.

  6. When does New Year’s Eve appear at the earliest?

  People in China often refer to New Year’s Eve as "New Year’s Eve", which is called "New Year’s Eve" if it is a day or a night. In some areas, the day before New Year’s Eve is also called "New Year’s Eve".

  From the perspective of classics, the appearance of "New Year’s Eve" may be much later than the Spring Festival. The earliest reference to "New Year’s Eve" in the existing literature is the "Records of Local Customs" written by the Western Jin and Zhou Dynasties. "On New Year’s Eve, if you don’t sleep, it is called keeping the year."

  Most of New Year’s Eve falls on the 30th of the twelfth lunar month, but it also falls on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month. Meng Lingfa said that the traditional calendar in China is generally a combination of yin and yang, which considers both the sun and the moon, and the Big Dipper and the Twenty-eight Nights. However, in order to bridge the time difference between the sun, the moon and the stars, a flat year and a leap year were established.

  Therefore, there are 30 days and 29 days in the last month of the lunar year, but there are more than 30 days.

  Seven, why do you want to keep the age?

  "Shounian" is also called "Shounian Fire", according to the age, etc. Simply put, after dinner, the whole family entered the first day of the first month from "New Year’s Eve" until dawn.

  Meng Lingfa believes that one of the reasons for this custom may be that "Shounian" originated from ancient nature worship and people’s reasonable explanation of it. People take the behavior of "staying up late" to resolve the survival crisis brought by the imaginary "Nian beast".

  In other words, people hope to build an invisible force in the span of two periods to drive away all evil diseases and epidemics, so as to realize the effective protection of family or collective members.

  In a word, the custom of "keeping the old age" on New Year’s Eve mainly comes from a symbolic expression of people’s alternation between the old and the new, which embodies people’s perceptual cognition and treatment of the cyclical changes in natural time series, and gradually moves towards national entertainment.

  8. What are the main customs of the Spring Festival?

  During the Spring Festival, there are various festival customs, such as eating jiaozi, setting off fireworks, paying lucky money and visiting temple fairs.

  After eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, I also took back the Kitchen God. When the first day of the first month, everyone went to visit relatives and friends as usual, and "Happy New Year" in turn. People put on their favorite new clothes, prepare refreshments and sweets, and entertain guests warmly.

  In the old folk customs, from the first day to the seventh day, everything is exquisite every day, which is quite ceremonial.

  Nine, why do you want to eat "five spicy dishes"?

  Interestingly, some places eat "five spicy dishes" during the Spring Festival, which are cold dishes composed of five kinds of plants: raw leeks, raw onions, Polygonum cuspidatum, Polygonum cuspidatum and Artemisia scoparia, and some also use onions, garlic sprouts, ginger, peppers and mustard.

  In the Southern Dynasties, Liang Zonggu’s Chronicle of the Age of Jingchu recorded: "Spring cakes, radishes and spiced spring plates are eaten in the New Year". It can be seen that the "five-spice plate" was widely distributed in Chu.

  The "five-spice plate" is basically based on spicy dishes, and its homonym is "new", which means the beginning of a new year. In addition, eating "five spicy dishes" has the meaning of eliminating evil and diseases, and praying for "good health in the new year".

  Ten, saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new is the core topic of the Spring Festival?

  "Thousands of families always change new peaches for old ones every day." Meng Lingfa said that "saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new" is indeed the core topic of the Spring Festival. It can be said that most Spring Festival activities are inseparable from this.

  Sticking Spring Festival couplets, door gods, etc. generally appear on New Year’s Eve (noon); The bowing in New Year’s greetings on the first day of the first month, the auspicious words when greeting each other, etc., can all show that both of them have the characteristics of "resigning the old and welcoming the new".

  Meng Lingfa believes that, comparatively speaking, the "farewell to the old" attribute of New Year’s Eve is prominent, and the custom of the first day of the first month is more inclined to "welcome the new".

  In his view, celebrating the Spring Festival is an important activity that China has inherited for thousands of years. We should pay attention to the role of traditional culture in the development of contemporary society, do a good job in the process of protection and inheritance, and better maintain the cultural identity function of traditional festivals.

Strong flavor of the year, delicious food and fragrance (New Year special)

  I love the bacon in my hometown.

  Zhou yujiao

  When there are mountain people on the street who pick fragrant cypresses, I know that the year is approaching.

  Zunyi, located in the southwest, mostly belongs to the alpine mountainous area, with abundant rainfall and humid climate all year round, and food, especially meat, is not easy to store. In the years when there was no refrigerator, the mountain people made bacon, which was hung on the stove for many years and was smoked and roasted by the stove fire. This kind of bacon gradually changed from light chestnut to burnt black, but the taste became more and more mellow.

  Living in the city, there is no firewood to cook, but smoked bacon is still an essential new year’s goods, otherwise it will lose its flavor in 2008. I still remember that there was a big tin bucket in the family courtyard where I lived. Before and after the winter solstice, the tin bucket came in handy. Since the first family began to smoke bacon, the smell of smoke in the small courtyard has been floating until the 28 th of the twelfth lunar month, never stopping.

  Smoked bacon, for any family, is a major event in the New Year. Early, my mother went to the vegetable market to buy fat and thin "two-knife meat" and pork belly, and cut them into strips of moderate size. When you come home, first smear high-alcohol liquor on the meat, which can not only disinfect and sterilize, but also benefit the taste. Then add the salt to spices such as pepper and star anise, stir-fry slowly with low fire until the salt is slightly yellow, and rub it repeatedly on the pork while it is hot to let them penetrate into the meat. Marinate it for about a week, turn it twice, then take it out and dry it, and you can smoke it.

  Just as there can be no bacon in the annual flavor, can there be no sausage in the bacon? The most technical part of sausage is seasoning, and each seasoning has its own advantages, whether it is spicy or sweet, depending on preferences.

  Filling sausages is also a technical job, too tight, and it is easy to break the extremely thin casing; It’s too fluffy to cut into pieces after steaming, even if it’s a housewife’s hand, when she eats a "round meal" in the first month, it will definitely make her relatives talk for a long time. After the meat is poured into the casing, one section is tied tightly with cotton thread. The last process should not be vague. Punch the hole with a needle to let out the air in the sausage.

  Marinate for about a week, turn and knead once in the middle, air dry for two days, remove the water, and you can smoke. Mother took out the usual accumulated seed shells, peanut shells, dried orange peels and bagasse, and went to the street to find a load of cedarwood and some sawn wood surfaces, and everything was ready.

  Put the meat and sausage on the steel bar that crosses the tin bucket in an orderly way, cover it with several layers of thick linen, light the stove door specially opened under the tin bucket and add cypress, and the bacon will begin. The fragrance of cedarwood and nut shells floated out with the white smoke, and in a short time, the oily smell of bacon also escaped. In the crackling burning sound, the meat creaked slightly. From time to time, a drop of oil dripped into the fire, and a spark burst out, and another spark burst out.

  Bacon is a chore. Mother has to stay by the iron drum all day, and can’t leave for a moment. It is necessary to add fuel from time to time to ensure that there is smoke coming out continuously. More attention should be paid to controlling the fire not to be too big, not to burn the meat, and to turn it off once in the middle to make the meat smoked more evenly.

  At dusk, the meat was finally smoked, brought home and hung on the balcony. The fragrant smoke filled the whole room instantly, and glittering oil beads dripped from time to time. This is the fragrant smell of "Nian".

  On New Year’s Eve, bacon sausage is undoubtedly the protagonist. After this day, relatives began to eat "turn around". Each family’s signature dishes have their own merits, but the position of preserved meat has never been shaken, and it is the most popular whether it is drinking or eating. Each family has its own bacon flavor, which is an important criterion for judging a housewife’s cooking.

  Bacon in the mother’s hands can be described as endless changes, which can be combined and perfect — — Stewed square bamboo shoots with preserved pork feet, stewed rice with preserved ribs, fried turnips with preserved meat, fried ferns, and fried broken ears with sausage … … Everything is an authentic taste of northern Guizhou.

  Of course, it is more common to cook directly without any side dishes. In the more mellow and thick wax fragrance, the fat is crystal clear, the thin ruddy is firm, and it is fat but not greasy, thin but not firewood, and the thick oil fragrance is accompanied by a touch of vegetation fragrance, which is an unusually rich annual flavor, from the first year fragrance to the end of the year.

  Now that there are abundant materials, there is no need to store meat by smoking. Home-cooked bacon is becoming less and less. All the year round, we go to the market to purchase finished products, and we can feast on them with a little cooking. But I still miss the time when I smoked bacon at home, because the smell of bacon filled with fireworks carries the memory of time and the taste of family.

  "Aunt Li, let’s make a big steamed bun by soaking in the starter and making a good face!"

  "Uncle Zhang, steamed bread is up to you. The wind should be strong and the flames should be strong! "

  In the cramped painting, all the shouts rang out, and all the people in the hospital could hear clearly. Then Aunt Li was busy finding out the basin and soaking the starter. Aunt Wang washed and washed a bunch of "clips" and wiped and wiped them; Zhang Shu lit the stove with firewood, then "Huda Huda" pulled up the bellows, and the flames burst out of the furnace, making the kitchen red. In a short time, hot steam floated out of the open window, and the bellows rang even louder.

  Steaming steamed bread in the New Year is one of the important contents of welcoming the New Year. In Qingdao, my hometown, in the past, steamed bread must be among the sacrifices offered to ancestors at festivals, which shows the position of steamed bread in people’s minds. Nowadays, although steamed bread has become a common thing, its meaning is still far-reaching. Making steamed bread should be "steamed" and "steamed", which is related to homophonic words such as "getting rich" and "thriving" and is also an expression of people’s New Year’s vision. Therefore, despite the abundant food and convenient purchase, many people still keep the custom of steaming steamed buns for the New Year.

  Making steamed bread is indispensable for "jujube cake". Insert the washed dates evenly into the round dough, which looks like a "jujube hill" at first glance. Some also cut the jujube into pieces, remove the jujube core and insert it on the steamed bread, which looks like a fish scale, like a fat "jujube fish" and a "hedgehog" full of thorns. The interpretation of jujube in the workshop is mostly homophonic: lucky strike, thriving, is a symbol of happiness and auspiciousness. Jujube cakes are not only visually beautiful, but also sweet and auspicious. Eating Chinese New Year’s jujube cake will usher in a year of good luck.

  In addition to making steamed bread, steamed "clips" are also indispensable pasta for the New Year. "Clip" is a kind of woodcut mold, which is specially used to make various kinds of pasta, and the pasta people will make with it is also called "clip". "Clip" is actually a kind of steamed bread, but the style is different. The "clip" dies are large and small, long and short, square and round. There are many patterns of "clip", such as fish, peach, lotus, cicada, zodiac, etc., as well as the word "Xi", "Fu" and "Shou", which means that there is more than enough every year, good luck and peace.

  Generally, after off-year, the compound will be lively. Neighborhood help each other, some provide "old introduction", some guide "hair face", and aunts will help the families of dual employees; Anyone who has a "clip" at home will contribute, and each family will take turns using the "pass the parcel". In those days, people with big iron pots even went to their neighbors to cook, and the big iron pots were specially used to steam steamed buns for their neighbors. From morning till night, you come and I go, and the owner goes west. The joyful, harmonious and warm atmosphere hangs over the whole compound, which makes people feel the beauty of the New Year.

  After steaming steamed bread, put it in a cool and dry place. Half a century ago, ordinary people didn’t have refrigerators and freezers, and the cool places such as aisles and corridors were used. Wrap the steamed bread and "clip" with clean gauze, and then wrap it with a protective layer, or put it in a jar, jar or carton for more than ten days. Some of them are preserved properly, and they are as delicious as ever after the first month.

  The first month is a day of delicious food. With braised pork, fried fish and freshly fried vegetables, drinking two or two small wines and eating a white and soft steamed bun or "clip", there is simply no way to say that happiness!

  In the 21st century, some traditional customs are slowly changing, but their "roots" are still there, and they are endowed with new contents and new forms, becoming more and more popular.

  Now during the Spring Festival, people can go to the supermarket to choose all kinds of steamed bread and "clips" at will, and there is no need to ferment, mix flour and knead shapes by themselves. Steamed bread has also become a tool for hometown people to get rich. Wanggezhuang, Qingdao, set up a big steamed bread production base more than ten years ago, and the sub-district office is responsible for ensuring "materials", "quality" and "reputation": yeast is provided in a unified way, and flour is invited for bidding once a year, which not only ensures the nutrition and grade of flour, but also encourages surrounding farmers to grow a variety of good grain. The industrial chain, with big steamed bread as the main product, accompanied by fancy steamed bread such as "Swallow", "Fushou Peach", "Fugui Fish" and "Jujube Flower Cake" as the secondary products, has made this land at the foot of Laoshan Mountain present a prosperous and beautiful scene, and let the local villagers really taste the sweetness of common prosperity.

  "No hairpin but a new year"

  Zhong Zhaoyun

  In the Hakka mountainous area at the junction of Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi provinces, there is a kind of delicious food called "Zan", which generally refers to the food made by grinding rice into powder or pulp. There are many kinds of them, which should be made in solar terms. According to the stuffing, color, shape and so on, they can be used as snacks, staple food or even a dish. Hakka people have it on their dining tables all year round, and it is a "hard dish" during the Spring Festival, which can be seen from the saying that "there is no hairpin but the New Year".

  Since I was a child, I have an extraordinary hobby for hairpin, especially the special fried hairpin in Yanqian Town, Wuping County, my hometown in western Fujian. It is golden in color, crisp on the outside and tough on the inside, sweet and delicious. After eating it overnight, it becomes crunchy when bitten, and it is famous for its long shelf life.

  As soon as the New Year’s Eve arrives, every household begins to make chopsticks, and when they arrive at the village entrance, they can smell the fragrance floating in the air. At this time, no matter how naughty and active the children are, they can quietly wait around the steaming stove to eat. After the "small balls" reach their mouths, they often catch a few out of the house to show off their "wealth" to the village friends and eat with relish like greedy cats. Hakka people are simple, kind, warm and generous. They have fried the hairpin at home. As long as they know who has not cooked the pot next door, they will bring a bowl to taste it together.

  As far as I can remember, during the Chinese New Year, my father took care of the hairpin at home, from cooking brown sugar, rubbing the hairpin balls to frying with fire, and my mother and my brother and sister were responsible for passing the "small balls" in the hall. The "small balls" are well-proportioned, and dozens can be arranged in a big bamboo basket, not next to each other, not to overlap, in case of sticking. When a basket is made here, a pot is almost fried in the kitchen, and several large bamboo baskets are replaced by turns. Both sides are in full swing, and they must do it in one go before the 29 th of the New Year’s Day, and they have to give up the stove for the New Year’s Eve.

  Gradually, my position rose from the firewood worker in the kitchen to the main player of the hairpin, but I never replaced my father’s "handsome" position. In fact, the coach is not good, the ratio of indica rice flour to glutinous rice flour is out of balance, the sugar water is not in place, and the heat is not enough, which will easily lead to the phenomenon of fried dough, incomplete frying, and a pot of coke. Under normal circumstances, when the oil temperature is 60% hot, the ball table turns yellow in a few minutes, and then it is fried for an hour or so with a small fire. From time to time, the ball is turned over with a spatula to avoid burning the sticky pot, then covered with a bamboo cover, and placed in a fixed porcelain basin until the oil drops dry before entering the cylinder. Hairpins are fried crystal clear one by one, and they are caramel color soon after they are taken out of the pot, and they will become the famous fried hairpins in front of the rock after being put on overnight. Making a good pot of hairpin requires the cooperation of many people, but the technical work still depends on the veteran at the helm.

  The happiest thing at the labor site is to cook and eat now, and take a bite of incense. Adults always fry the first pot for seven minutes in order to let the greedy children eat the hairpin early, which is called "seed fire hairpin", which is soft and sweet and won’t get angry if they eat more. Once I ate a dozen in a row, and a big bowl filled with them turned upside down in an instant. The more children eat, the happier their mothers are. When my mother is happy, she will sing the ballad that my grandmother taught when she was alive: "The foreign leaf (butterfly) leaves Ye Fei, and my mother will return to her daughter; Take the big hairpin to sister, and leave the small hairpin to tease the younger brother. " Full of sound and emotion, people feel that happiness is so simple and family affection is so priceless.

  Pots of round, hot, delicious hair sticks are fried, fat and thin bacon is available, fragrant rice wine is brewed, red Spring Festival couplets and door gods are posted, and all the rooms are clear and cool, and the laughter and laughter at home and in the village are transmitted in the spring breeze.

  Most families in my hometown will keep some chopsticks and take them with them when they go to spring ploughing, which are called "supporting bones" as dry food or snacks. If you have a bad mouth, you can steam it with breakfast or cut it into small pieces to eat cold. Some old people also stew porridge or stewed sweet potatoes, the taste is unchanged, and the teeth are stiff. This flavor of the year is still original after the Dragon Boat Festival.

  After many years, we have grown up and traveled all over the country, but we can never forget the taste of our hometown. Every year during the Spring Festival, I invite two or three relatives and friends to get together at home to taste the fried hairpin in front of the rock. If there is "Wuping dried pork gall", which is the first of the "eight dry things in western Fujian", and then there is a "rock sheep stew" which should only be in the sky, it will be better than the fairy. The taste of hometown and the feelings of wanderers are worth savoring all your life.

  "Uncle, have a bowl of fried chopsticks … …” Nowadays, when I go home, I often just sit down in the living room and hear the voices of my nephews. There are a dozen exquisite hairpin in the bowl, and the smiles on their faces are just like the "reunion fried hairpin" in front of them, which is festive and brilliant.

  Delicious "flowering"

  Li Dan cliff

  In my hometown of Bozhou, Anhui, before the Spring Festival, people like to make hemp leaves, commonly known as "scorched hemp leaves", and some elderly people call them "scorched leaves". Hemp leaf, as its name implies, is a gourmet with sesame as its main feature. Sesame is divided into black and white, so hemp leaves are also divided into black sesame leaves and white sesame leaves.

  As soon as winter comes, housewives begin to be busy with the New Year. They took the sesame seeds harvested in autumn out of the bag, filtered the dust with clear water and dried them for later use. You can be very particular about noodles. To make noodles with hemp leaves, it is necessary to mix them with vegetable oil, which can ensure the pure taste and the crisp and delicious fried hemp leaves. When the dough is mixed, it needs a disk surface, and then it is rolled into a dough. When the dough is almost rolled, stretch the dough, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and roll it again to ensure that the sesame seeds and the dough stick together. Then roll up the dough on a rolling pin, "stab" it with a knife, and cut the multi-layer dough from the middle. The dough was cut into pieces, then cut into diamonds and dried in a sieve basket.

  The wind at the end of the year soon evaporated the water in the diamond-shaped dough in the sieve basket. At this time, the hemp leaves were initially formed, and sesame seeds were visible on the dough. Then, add raw hemp leaves into the oil and fry them with slow fire. Until the hemp leaves turn yellow, stir them up with a hedge and clatter. After the pot is cooled, the hemp leaves are crispy and delicious, and the house is full of fragrance.

  There are many ways to eat hemp leaves, which can be placed on a plate and served as a dish. It can also be sandwiched in the middle of hot steamed bread to eat. The hot air of hot steamed bread can catalyze the fragrance of oil and increase the taste of hemp leaves. Or break hemp leaves and wrap them into flat food with leeks and shrimps to eat; It’s not bad to eat as a refreshment. There is no trivial matter in the twelfth lunar month in my hometown, and my family sits around and "eats their teeth". "idle teeth" is a dialect, which means eating delicious food and chatting. The family sat in the living room watching TV and eating hemp leaves, enjoying themselves.

  The color of hemp leaves is like gold, so it is called "Jin Yezi". In addition to hemp leaves, there are prickly heat for the Spring Festival. At this time, the prickly heat is "small prickly heat", which is made of sesame oil and flour, sprinkled with sesame seeds and rolled into rectangular pieces. The knife cuts several holes vertically on the dough sheet, and the two ends are kept open. When it is pinched and twisted, it becomes a candy style, which is small and unique and fragrant. On the day of the northern off-year, my grandmother would stack the fried prickly heat layer by layer in a white porcelain plate, like a golden hill, and let the children eat it together with the candy for the stove. Grandma said, "If you eat a small prickly heat, you have to chew something! Otherwise, a good tooth and a crisp mouth are wasted. "

  Eating related to "Year" has a good color. Hemp leaves have the meaning of spreading branches and leaves, and having more children and more happiness; The small scorpion has the meaning of twisting into a rope and family unity. Another delicious fried food — — Jiaowanzi means reunion.

  To make burnt meatballs, you should also use sesame oil and flour. Whether the meatballs are burnt or not, fans are the key. Good sweet potato vermicelli, soaked in hot water for two hours, chopped into pieces, mixed with flour and paste, sprinkled with spiced powder, salt and other things. Grab a handful of dough and hold it in your hand. Squeeze it a little hard, and the batter will come out from the jaws of the tiger and squeeze it into the boiling oil pan. It will "squeak" and immediately rise to a fragrance. The fried burnt meatballs are crispy and delicious, and can be eaten directly, steamed or put in mutton vermicelli soup, which has a unique flavor. Today, burnt meatballs are still a necessary food for people in northern Anhui at the end of the year.

  Hemp leaves, small prickly heat and burnt meatballs are rolled into flowers in the oil pan, and the state of food blooming in boiling oil seems to welcome a hundred flowers after the Spring Festival. Apart from eating hemp leaves, small prickly heat and burnt meatballs, all kinds of sweets, chocolates and biscuits are on the table, and every household seems to have opened a small supermarket.

  When writing this article, I saw that my mother was wearing reading glasses to cut the window grilles, which were the patterns of magpies climbing branches, while my daughter was carrying the hemp leaves that her grandmother had just fried and squeezing the ketchup … … Happy and beautiful days are just around the corner.

  In such an important festival as the Spring Festival, food brings people not only delicious food, but also a sense of reunion and joy. The family is sitting around, the lights are amiable, and the delicious "flowers" live up to the Spring Festival.

South Korea’s president responded to his wife’s acceptance of brand-name bags: she was not "ruthless"

South Korea’s "first lady" Jin Jianxi continued to attract attention after privately accepting the video exposure of brand-name bags. According to Yonhap News Agency, South Korean President Yin Xiyue responded for the first time to the accusation that his wife, Kim Jianxi, accepted a brand-name bag in an interview broadcast on the evening of the 7th local time, saying that she was not "heartless" enough to refuse the other party’s gift.

According to the report, Yin Xiyue said in an interview with KBS TV in South Korea that this video of Jin Jianxi’s "receiving the package" shot through a hidden camera in 2022 was exposed before the Korean election last year, which was a "political means".

"The problem is that she can’t refuse mercilessly. If you can call this a problem, this is a bit regrettable. " Yin Xiyue added, "It is not important to say that this is a political strategy, but that we should draw a clearer line to ensure that such things will not happen again."

The report said that Yin Xiyue has been under increasing pressure since the video of "First Lady Receiving Bags" was exposed. When asked whether he planned to appoint a special investigator to investigate the corruption of the president’s family members, or set up the office of the private secretary of the first lady, Yin Xiyue said that the special investigator should be elected by the National Assembly, and his office was considering setting up the office of the first lady’s affairs, but he also had reservations about the effectiveness of these measures in preventing such incidents. In addition, when asked if he and Jin Jianxi would have a dispute over accepting brand-name bags, Yin Xiyue replied with a smile: "Not at all."

According to previous reports from Korean media, on September 13th, 2022, Jin Jianxi accepted a Dior bag worth about 3 million won (about RMB16,000) from Cui Zaiying, a pastor of overseas Chinese living in the United States. The related video was shot by the built-in camera of Cui Zaiying’s watch, which caused a huge storm after being exposed. Han Dongxun, chairman (temporary leader) of the Emergency Countermeasures Committee of the ruling National Power Party of South Korea, has repeatedly stated that he should deal with this matter from the "national line of sight" and adhere to the position of "or cause national concern and should be treated from the national point of view", but the president’s office believes that the relevant dispute is purely a "sneak shot trap" and Jin Jianxi is only a victim.

It is reported that South Korea’s first lady, Jin Jianxi, was born in 1972 and married Yin Xiyue in 2012. After marriage, they had no children. In 2022, Yin Xiyue was elected as the president of South Korea, and Jin Jianxi was also called the "most beautiful first lady" in South Korea.

However, Jin Jianxi was later exposed to many scandals, including plagiarism of papers and falsification of resumes. Among them, the most controversial issue is that Jin Jianxi is involved in stock manipulation, tax evasion and relatives breaking the law.

According to previous reports, Jin Jianxi was accused of being involved in manipulating the share price of Deutsch Motors, a BMW dealer in South Korea, from 2009 to 2012. During Moon Jae in’s administration, the South Korean government conducted a 19-month investigation on the case, but Jin Jianxi was not prosecuted. On January 4th, the South Korean National Assembly submitted two special investigation bills to the South Korean Presidential Palace, one of which called "the independent inspection law of Kim Jianxi". On January 5, Yin Xiyue exercised the right of reconsideration (veto) and returned the relevant bill to the National Assembly for reconsideration.

In 2019, a report pointed out that the property under Jin Jianxi’s name had been detained by the relevant departments for "unpaid taxes". According to the report of East Asia Daily, according to the information of personnel hearing submitted by Yin Xiyue to the National Assembly, the Tax Section 1 of Seocho District Office of Seoul seized the commercial and residential apartment in Seocho District of Seoul under the name of Jin Jianxi in November 2012, November 2013 and January 2015. According to Yonhap News Agency’s previous report quoted by Zhongxin.com, on July 21st, 2023, Cui Enshun, the mother-in-law of South Korean President Yin Xiyue, was sentenced in the second instance. The court rejected the appeal filed by the defendant, sentenced Cui Enshun to one year’s imprisonment, upheld the judgment of the first instance and arrested her in court. It is reported that the mother-in-law of the current president was arrested in court, which is the first time in the history of Korean constitutionalism.

In addition, Jin Jianxi is also considered to have academic misconduct. Plagiarism in doctoral dissertations and other academic works has been criticized by the public. After an eight-month investigation, the National Power Party said that although Jin Jianxi’s works have "shortcomings" and "do not meet the current standards", they do not constitute academic misconduct.

Rent a car and drive home during the Spring Festival. Be careful that these "routines" can’t go!

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, February 1st Question: Rent a car and drive home during the Spring Festival. Be careful that these "routines" can’t go!

  Xinhua News Agency "China Net" reporter Wu Mengda Wang Jing

  As the Spring Festival approaches, plane, train and bus tickets are hard to buy, and more and more people choose to rent a car to return home. The reporter’s recent investigation found that many people have the experience of being "touched by porcelain" and "killed by customers" when renting a car. Because of the vague contract provisions and blank supervision, they can only "worry" when there is a dispute. When renting a car to go home during the Spring Festival, we must be careful, and the regulatory authorities should also take timely actions to fill in the "pit" of the industry.

  Renting a car but encountering a serial "pit"

  According to the data of market research organization iResearch, the number of automobile drivers in China has exceeded 300 million at present, and there is a big gap between drivers and car ownership. The combination of economic growth, lifestyle changes and self-driving travel habits makes car rental a new travel choice. However, compared with the rapidly developing market scale, the market order has become a lagging short board.

  Not long ago, Ms. Min Tian, a Beijing citizen, traveled to Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, rented a car from Chifeng Junyi Car Rental Co., Ltd., paid a deposit of 5,000 yuan and signed a contract, agreeing to return the car that night. After taking a few photos of the car’s appearance, several people drove on the road, but the experience of returning the car made her unexpected.

  When Ms. Tian contacted to return the car by phone, she learned that Ms. Tian would leave Chifeng by plane at night, and Liu, the person in charge of the car rental company, "actively" suggested that she could return the car at the airport. However, after repeated phone calls, Liu arrived more than 40 minutes late.

  Ms. Tian said that after watching the car, Liu said that "there are scratches on the front and left back doors". Some photos taken by Ms. Tian when renting a car prove that scratches already exist. Then Liu suggested that the steering wheel had abnormal sound. Despite Ms. Tian’s objection, the plane waited for no one, so she had to take the opportunity to leave in a hurry.

  Early the next morning, the two parties agreed by telephone that Ms. Tian’s local relatives and the car rental company would test the vehicle together. Not long after, Ms. Tian received a phone call from the car rental company, saying that the car had been unilaterally "inspected". The report sent by the car rental company said that "the trailer parts of the vehicle are loose, causing antifreeze leakage" and asked Ms. Tian to sign and deduct the deposit.

  The reporter contacted Liu, the person in charge of the car rental company. Liu said that the test found that the external scratches and steering wheel of the car had nothing to do with the renter, but the bottom drag parts of the car were faulty, and the renter had to bear the repair fee, which would be deducted from the deposit of 5,000 yuan.

  In this regard, Ms. Tian believes: "It is agreed to inspect the car together, but the other party goes privately, and the test results of the car inspection are a list, which is difficult to convince." Previously, some consumers reported that they encountered a similar situation when renting a car in Chifeng, and they didn’t return a penny of the 2000 yuan deposit, so they could only admit that they were unlucky.

  The reporter interviewed the local traffic management department. After investigation, the car rental company has an industrial and commercial license, but it is difficult for the traffic control department to handle similar situations. It is recommended that the car rental person solve it through litigation.

  Due to problems such as contract loopholes and careless inspection when renting a car, it is easy for many consumers to rent a car and it is difficult to return it. According to the consumer complaints in the fourth quarter of last year published by the tourist city of Sanya, Hainan, car rental and wedding photography became the industries with the largest number of complaints.

  Hard to refund the deposit and hard to guarantee the insurance … … There are many "cheat people" routines.

  The reporter found that when consumers rent a car, the problems in three major areas, such as deposit, insurance and illegal disposal, are concentrated.

  Deposit — — The car is refunded and the deposit is not refundable. According to the common "rules" of the car rental industry, the car rental company can temporarily withhold the deposit for one month after the consumer returns the car, and then refund the deposit after all violations are settled. However, some companies are mixed, and the deposit is gone. Some consumers in Guiyang, Guizhou Province reported that the car was returned smoothly, but while waiting for the deposit to be refunded, the operator turned off and closed the door to play "into thin air", and the deposit of 5,000 yuan could not be refunded.

  Insurance — — If you buy insurance, you can’t protect it. There are still many consumers who report that it is mandatory to buy compulsory insurance when renting a car, but many companies have set up the overlord clause, and they have to pay all their own money if something goes wrong. Some car rental companies will sell higher "all risks", claiming to be "all-inclusive" of accidents, but there are exceptions in the contract, and many projects are difficult to pay. According to the local traffic management department, some car rental companies even deliberately concealed the coverage, which led the lessee to find that the insurance content was inconsistent with that published by official website, a car rental company.

  Violation — — You can also "buy and divide". Mr. Zhao, a Beijing citizen, told reporters that he rented a car in CAR Inc. Xi ‘an North Store last October and drove to Gansu. After that, CAR Inc. informed him that he violated the rules in Gansu: speeding was 50%, and 200 yuan was fined 6 points according to the traffic regulations. And the local CAR Inc. also provides "intimate" service: you can "buy points" from the company for 400 yuan, and if it is too expensive, "it can be discussed again". Consumers themselves inquired about the traffic management bureau in the area where the violation occurred, and the answer turned out to be: no violation information record was found.

  Urgent solution to legislative gaps and regulatory loopholes

  Industry insiders told reporters that there are many gaps in how to supervise the car rental industry. The state has not yet issued relevant laws and regulations on car rental, and grassroots law enforcement also lacks a superior law to refer to.

  Cao Wenke, the relevant person in charge of the Transportation Management Office of Chifeng City Transportation Bureau, Inner Mongolia, introduced that in 2017, the then Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development jointly issued the Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Healthy Development of Minibus Leasing. However, in practical application, the "guiding opinions" of ministries and commissions can not be used as the basis for law enforcement, and it is difficult to carry out supervision work normally.

  "Car rental companies make false invoices to find the tax bureau, seek the industrial and commercial bureau without a license, find the transportation management department without qualification, and find the traffic police without annual inspection and insurance … …” A grassroots cadre said that this kind of segmented management can easily lead to the phenomenon of "kicking the ball".

  Savage growth not only hurts consumers, but also hurts some car rental companies. According to the local traffic management department, after renting a car, some people mortgaged the rented car to others, resulting in the loss of the operator’s interests; After someone rented a car, a serious accident occurred and he left. In the end, it was difficult to deduct the accident loss with a deposit of several thousand yuan.

  Compared with foreign countries, China’s car rental industry is still in the initial stage of development, with huge market potential. Liu Junhai, a professor at the Law School of Renmin University of China, and other experts in the industry suggested that the relevant laws and regulations of the car rental industry should be promulgated as soon as possible, so that this field can be managed and managed, and industry self-discipline can also be explored, and a "blacklist" system can be established to restrict illegal rental companies from carrying out car rental business services.

Policy Interpretation of "Several Measures to Promote the Integration of Domestic and Foreign Trade in Tianjin"

Recently, with the consent of the Tianjin Municipal People’s Government, the General Office of the Tianjin Municipal People’s Government officially issued "Several Measures for Promoting the Integrated Development of Domestic and Foreign Trade in Tianjin" (No.29 [2022] of Tianjin Municipal Government, hereinafter referred to as "Tianjin Measures") to make arrangements for promoting the integrated development of domestic and foreign trade in Tianjin. The promulgation of "Tianjin Measures" will further give play to the market advantages and domestic demand potential, improve the ability to make overall use of two markets and two resources, and build an important node of the domestic grand cycle and a strategic fulcrum of the domestic and international double cycle. The relevant information of the document is now interpreted as follows:

(1) What is the background of formulating the Tianjin Measures?

The Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee put forward that "it is necessary to speed up the construction of a new development pattern with the domestic big cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycles promoting each other". The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader repeatedly stressed that "the new development pattern is by no means a closed domestic cycle, but an open domestic and international double cycle". The government work report of our city in 2022 also pointed out that "we should strive to build an important node of the domestic big cycle and a strategic fulcrum of the domestic and international double cycle, create more application scenarios and better open platforms, and better attract the gathering of high-quality resources at home and abroad. The integration of domestic and foreign trade is an inherent requirement for building a new development pattern, a positive response to the challenges and opportunities in the new development stage, and is of great significance for cultivating and building an international consumption center city in our city and promoting the coordinated development of domestic trade, foreign trade, import and export.

Since the reform and opening up, especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the scale of China’s domestic foreign trade market has been growing day by day, and it has become the world’s second largest consumer market and the largest commodity trading country. Our city’s foreign trade has also developed rapidly. The import and export trade volume has increased from 150.37 billion yuan when we joined the World Trade Organization in 2001 to 856.74 billion yuan in 2021, an increase of 4.69 times and a record high. At the same time, with the approval of the State Council in July, 2021, Zhuhai took the lead in cultivating and building an international consumption center city, which brought great development opportunities for expanding domestic demand, promoting consumption, guiding export commodities to domestic sales, attracting high-quality goods imports, and smoothing domestic and international markets. In recent years, the docking of domestic and foreign trade markets in our city has been active, foreign trade enterprises have taken the initiative to explore the domestic market, domestic trade enterprises have actively expanded overseas markets, and the integration of domestic and foreign trade has accelerated, and a number of subjects engaged in both foreign trade and domestic trade have grown up, forming a number of industries that integrate domestic and foreign trade. However, there are still shortcomings in the integration of domestic and foreign trade, obstacles in the market access of domestic and foreign trade, imperfect system of domestic and foreign trade integration, insufficient ability to make overall use of two resources in the two markets, and insufficient smooth development of domestic and foreign trade integration, which can not fully meet the needs of building a new development pattern.

(2) What is the basis and process for formulating the Tianjin Measures?

In order to promote the integrated development of domestic and foreign trade, the General Office of the State Council officially issued the Opinions on Promoting the Integrated Development of Domestic and Foreign Trade on December 30, 2021, and made arrangements for promoting the integrated development of domestic and foreign trade, requiring all localities to study and determine specific policies and measures in light of the actual situation to promote practical results.

In order to implement the spirit of the State-run document, in accordance with the work arrangements of the municipal government, the Municipal Bureau of Commerce, together with relevant departments, combined with the cultivation and construction of "double centers" in our city, studied and drafted the "Tianjin Measures", solicited the opinions of 49 units including the people’s governments of various districts, relevant municipal departments, and relevant development zone management committees, fully absorbed and revised them, and reached an agreement through communication. At the same time, the public was consulted. ??

(3) What are the main contents of the Tianjin Measures?

The document defines five parts and 19 specific measures.

First, improve the system of domestic and foreign trade integration. Four measures are put forward, such as perfecting laws and regulations, perfecting supervision system, carrying out standard certification and promoting the homogeneity of the same line and standard. The key points include: timely promoting the revision of local laws, government regulations and administrative normative documents that hinder the integration of domestic and foreign trade; Carry out anti-unfair competition law enforcement in key areas; Promote enterprises to carry out benchmarking, and support third-party institutions such as inspection, certification and accreditation to provide one-stop services for domestic and foreign trade enterprises; Encourage and guide enterprises to develop homogeneity of the same line and standard through self-declaration or third-party evaluation.

The second is to enhance the development ability of domestic and foreign trade integration. Three measures are put forward to support the integrated operation of domestic and foreign trade by market players, guide the digital development of domestic and foreign trade enterprises, and innovate the integrated development model of domestic and foreign trade. The key points include: cultivating a group of high-quality trading enterprises with professional business, excellent service, unique products, new models, integrated development at home and abroad, strong innovation ability and competitive strength; Accelerate the digital transformation of foreign trade enterprises and encourage domestic and foreign trade enterprises to use big data technology to enhance their market analysis and judgment capabilities; Promote the construction of China (Tianjin) cross-border electronic commerce Comprehensive Experimental Zone and support enterprises to actively deploy overseas warehouses.

The third is to build an integrated development platform for domestic and foreign trade. Four measures are put forward, such as building a docking platform for production and marketing, giving full play to the internal and external functions of the exhibition, building a regional business distribution center, and cultivating an integrated service platform for domestic and foreign trade. The key points include: supporting foreign trade enterprises to conduct docking negotiations with large supermarkets, retail wholesalers, core supply chain enterprises, e-commerce platforms and live broadcast platforms to expand domestic sales channels; Support foreign trade enterprises to participate in domestic and foreign exhibitions and expand domestic and foreign markets; Cultivate and build an integrated domestic and foreign trade market; Support third-party platform enterprises to actively carry out integrated domestic and foreign trade services such as brand planning, standard certification, channel development, digital transformation, logistics and distribution, credit insurance financing and legal consultation.

The fourth is to build an integrated ecological environment for domestic and foreign trade. Five measures are put forward, such as building a highland of domestic and foreign trade integration development system, expanding consumption, tapping the potential of domestic demand, optimizing internal and external logistics channels, giving play to the role of financial security, and strengthening the training of professional talents. The key points include: promoting the coordinated development of Tianjin Pilot Free Trade Zone and special customs supervision zone, and expanding the business scale of bonded display transactions and classified supervision of warehousing goods in comprehensive bonded areas; Continue to carry out consumption promotion activities, expand the driving force of Haihe international consumption season, and accelerate the cultivation of new growth points such as night consumption, holiday consumption, customized consumption, green consumption and brand consumption; Improve the domestic and foreign trade service capabilities of Tianjin Port and Tianjin Binhai International Airport, and promote the high-quality normal operation of China-Europe trains; Strengthen the cooperative support of export credit insurance and domestic trade credit insurance for enterprises operating both domestic and international markets; Actively introduce high-level talents such as marketing, business management, e-commerce, digital economy and legal affairs.

Fifth, safeguard measures. Three safeguard measures are put forward: strengthening organizational guarantee, grasping the pilot work and strengthening publicity and promotion.

(four) to ensure the smooth implementation of the "Tianjin measures", what are the main safeguard measures?

First, the "Tianjin Measures" clearly requires all districts and relevant departments to fully understand the importance of promoting the integration of domestic and foreign trade, strengthen organizational promotion, and implement their work responsibilities. As the lead unit, the Municipal Bureau of Commerce should organize the establishment of a coordination mechanism for promoting the integration of domestic and foreign trade in this Municipality, and all relevant departments should be responsible for the division of labor, strengthen horizontal coordination and vertical linkage, form a joint effort, and ensure the effective implementation of all work. Each district should further refine its work measures in light of the actual situation of the district and promote the achievement of practical results.

Second, the "Tianjin Measures" proposes to meet the requirements of the standard country, promote the pilot work of integrated development of domestic and foreign trade, comprehensively sort out the problems and needs of integrated development of domestic and foreign trade, and promote the effective connection of domestic and foreign trade laws and regulations, supervision system, business qualifications, quality standards, inspection and quarantine, certification and accreditation. Study and explore the evaluation system of domestic and foreign trade integration, and feedback the effectiveness and shortcomings from different aspects. Strengthen the phased combing, regularly summarize the progress of key tasks and form an analysis report.

Third, the "Tianjin Measures" emphasizes the use of various media to promote the development of domestic and foreign trade integration, do a good job in interpreting relevant policies and reporting activities, tell the story of "Tianjin enterprises, Tianjin brands and Tianjin manufacturing", and create a good social atmosphere to support Tianjin products to open up domestic and foreign markets.

Wuxi, which is known as the "out-of-print land of the canal, a water alley in the south of the Yangtze River", is rich in canal remains. A Qingming Bridge in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty attracted tourists to take photos and "punch in". The core exhibition garden of Qingming Bridge covers an area of 2.03 square kilometers, where Bodu Port and the ancient canal meet, and there are rows of canals. At present, the renovation project of Qingming Bridge’s historical and cultural block is progressing in an orderly manner, including building restoration and river bank regulation. In the future, it will be more comfortable to visit Qingming Bridge.

  Qingkou Hub and Banzha Site … … These water conservancy relics show you the ancient water transport culture.

  Throughout the ages, the Grand Canal has witnessed the rise and fall of water transport culture. As time goes by, those water conservancy sites still stand, telling the long past. Qingkou Hub Heritage Area is mainly located in Matou Town, Huaiyin District, Huai ‘an City, where the Yellow River, Huaihe River and Canal met during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. During the reign of Qing Kang Gan, a water control project was formed here, which ensured the smooth transportation of water. At present, the construction of related cultural, tourism supporting and public services facilities, including tourist distribution centers and cultural facilities, is progressing in an orderly manner, and the future Qingkou hub will be more comfortable.

Detailed explanation of the adjustment method of online banking transaction limit of banks

In today’s digital financial era, online banking has become one of the important channels for people to handle financial business. However, for the sake of safety and risk control, banks usually set a certain limit for online banking transactions. It is necessary for users to know how to adjust this limit.

Different banks may have different ways to adjust online banking transaction limits, but in general, they can be divided into the following common ways:

1. Online banking self-service adjustment:

Most banks provide the self-service function of online banking. Users can log in to their online banking accounts and find the function of adjusting transaction limit in related settings or security management options. Usually, banks will require users to authenticate themselves, such as entering SMS verification code, dynamic password, etc., to ensure that the account itself is operating.

2. Handling at the bank counter:

Go to the bank’s business outlets and ask the counter staff to adjust the online banking transaction limit. You need to bring your valid ID card and bank card, and the staff will assist you with the relevant procedures.
