Report on the implementation of China’s fiscal policy in the first half of 2022

  CCTV News:According to the website of the Ministry of Finance, 2022 is an important year for China to build a socialist modern country in an all-round way and March into a new journey towards the goal of the second century. In the first half of the year, faced with the complicated and severe international situation and the arduous and arduous tasks of domestic reform, development and stability, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, all localities and departments conscientiously implemented the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, effectively coordinated the prevention and control of epidemic situation and economic and social development, intensified macro-policy adjustment, effectively implemented a package of policies and measures to stabilize the economy, and solidly carried out the work of "six stabilities" and "six guarantees". The rebound of epidemic situation was effectively controlled, the national economy stabilized and rebounded, and people’s livelihood was effectively guaranteed. In the first half of the year, the GDP increased by 2.5% year-on-year, and in the second quarter, the GDP increased by 0.4% year-on-year. The main indicators stopped the downward trend and achieved positive growth.

  Since the beginning of this year, financial departments at all levels have adhered to the guidance of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the New Era, carried forward the great spirit of party building, adhered to the general tone of striving for progress while maintaining stability, implemented the new development concept completely, accurately and comprehensively, accelerated the construction of a new development pattern, conscientiously implemented the requirements of "active fiscal policy should improve efficiency and pay more attention to accuracy and sustainability", strengthened the overall planning of financial resources, and implemented a new combined tax and fee support policy. Taking into account the needs of steady growth and risk prevention, appropriately reduce the deficit ratio, rationally arrange the debt scale, ensure the intensity of fiscal expenditure, optimize the focus and structure of expenditure, promote the sinking of financial resources, continuously improve people’s livelihood, strictly enforce financial discipline, and strive to stabilize the macro-economic market.

  First, increase efforts to reduce burdens and relieve difficulties and enhance the vitality of market players. Adhere to the combination of phased measures and institutional arrangements, and reduce taxes, refund taxes and delay taxes simultaneously. Vigorously improve the system of value-added tax credit and tax refund, and implement large-scale tax refund for tax credit. Increase the deduction ratio of R&D expenses of small and medium-sized science and technology enterprises to 100%. Small-scale taxpayers are exempted from value-added tax in stages. Reduce the purchase tax of some passenger cars in stages. We will continue to implement the policy of tax reduction and fee reduction to support manufacturing, small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households, and increase the scope of reduction and exemption and expand the scope of application. Strengthen financing support for small and medium-sized enterprises, and comprehensively use financing guarantees, loan interest subsidies, incentives and subsidies to guide and incite financial resources to flow to small and medium-sized enterprises. Staged holdover of social security fees and efforts to expand the scope. We will promote the employment priority policy, improve the quality and strength, continue to implement the unemployment insurance return policy, and implement interest subsidies and awards for entrepreneurial guarantee loans. It is estimated that the annual tax rebate and tax reduction will be about 2.64 trillion yuan, of which the tax rebate will be about 1.64 trillion yuan.

  The second is to maintain an appropriate expenditure intensity and optimize the financial expenditure structure. Deficit ratio is appropriately lowered to about 2.8%. Through certain state-owned financial institutions and franchisees, the balance of profits in recent years was turned over according to law and transferred to the budget stabilization fund, etc., and the national general public budget expenditure was arranged to be 26.71 trillion yuan, an increase of more than 2 trillion yuan over the previous year, and the available financial resources were significantly increased. Optimize the structure of fiscal expenditure, give priority to supporting key projects that have been included in the national "Fourteenth Five-Year Plan" outline and key special plans, moderately advance infrastructure investment, and increase support for scientific and technological research, ecological environmental protection, basic people’s livelihood, modern agriculture and other fields and major regional strategies.

  The third is to arrange local government special bonds reasonably to ensure the construction of key projects. The overall leverage ratio of the government was basically stable, and the amount of special bonds for local governments was 3.65 trillion yuan, which was the same as that of the previous year. After being reported to the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) for the record, the special bond quota of 1.46 trillion yuan was issued in advance in December 2021, and all the special bond funds used for project construction were issued to local governments before the end of March. Adhere to the principle of "funds follow the project", make a deep and detailed reserve of special bond projects, make full use of special bonds as a major project capital policy, optimize the investment fields of special bonds, include new infrastructure and new energy projects in the key support scope, strictly supervise the use of funds, and focus on supporting projects under construction that can start as soon as possible, and expand effective investment. From January to June, all localities issued a total of 3.41 trillion yuan of new special bonds, basically completing the issuance task.

  The fourth is to promote the sinking of financial resources and support the grassroots to do the work of "three guarantees". Greatly increase the scale of transfer payments from the central government to local governments, especially general transfer payments, and tilt to difficult areas and underdeveloped areas. The central general public budget allocated nearly 9.8 trillion yuan to local transfer payments, an increase of about 1.5 trillion yuan, an increase of 18%, and the growth rate was significantly higher than in previous years. The provincial finance also sinks its financial resources to the maximum extent, supporting the grassroots to implement the policy of helping enterprises to bail out and ensuring basic people’s livelihood, wages and operation. Improve the direct mechanism of normalized financial funds, further expand the scope, and promote the rapid and accurate release and use of funds.

  Fifth, adhere to the tight life of party and government organs and promote the construction of conservation-oriented organs. The central government took the lead in living a tight life, focusing on ensuring rigid expenditures and urgently needed expenditures, strictly controlling general expenditures, strengthening the budget management of "three public funds", and striving to reduce administrative operating costs. In 2022, the expenditure of the central government decreased by 2.1%. Local governments at all levels are strict and tight, freeing up more financial resources to improve basic people’s livelihood and support the development of market players, so as to effectively save money for the people. We will improve the financial expenditure restraint mechanism, revitalize the financial stock funds and idle assets, promote the sharing of assets in administrative institutions, constantly improve the institutional system for living a tight life, and strengthen the evaluation of implementation.

  Sixth, strict financial discipline and financial order in put in order. Strictly implement financial laws and regulations and management regulations, tighten the "cage" of the system, and resolutely safeguard the seriousness of the system. Manage and make good use of financial funds and standardize income and expenditure behavior. Improve the tax collection and management system and severely crack down on tax evasion and tax fraud according to law. Further standardize the financial audit order and curb financial fraud. Organize and carry out special rectification actions of local financial and economic order, strictly investigate the serious violations, and make financial and economic discipline an untouchable "high-voltage line".

  In the next step, the financial department will conscientiously implement the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, adhere to the principle of stability, strive for progress in stability, implement the requirements of preventing the epidemic, stabilizing the economy, and ensuring safety in development, effectively coordinate the prevention and control of the epidemic and economic and social development, coordinate development and safety, increase macro-policy adjustment, plan incremental policy tools, arrange ahead, speed up the pace, and make timely efforts to continue to do a good job in "six stabilities" and "six guarantees"

  First, the financial operation suffered from the impact of epidemic situation and other factors, and the budget implementation was generally good.

  This year, China’s economic operation started smoothly, and the national general public budget revenue increased by 10.5% in January and February. In March, due to the complicated situation and epidemic situation at home and abroad, the growth rate of income in that month dropped to 3.4% year-on-year. In April and May, the fiscal revenue declined due to the influence of the centralized implementation of the VAT tax refund policy. With the gradual improvement of the epidemic situation and the effect of stabilizing the economy, the fiscal revenue stabilized and rebounded in June, with an increase of 5.3% after deducting the tax rebate factor, and the growth rate turned from negative to positive. In that month, the fiscal revenue of 25 provinces in China achieved positive growth. Overall, the budget implementation in the first half of the year was generally good.

  (1) Affected by the epidemic and other factors, the growth rate of national fiscal revenue has declined.

  In the first half of the year, the national general public budget revenue was 10,522.1 billion yuan, a cumulative increase of 3.3% after deducting the tax rebate factor, and a year-on-year decrease of 10.2% in natural terms. Affected by epidemic situation, industrial structure and other factors, regional fiscal revenue differentiation is more obvious. After deducting the tax rebate, the revenue of the central and local general public budgets increased by 1.7% and 4.7% respectively, while the revenue of the eastern, central, western and northeastern regions increased by -1%, 13.7%, 16.5% and -3.5% respectively. The income growth in the central and western regions is relatively high, mainly driven by the increase in energy and resources industries, in which Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi and Xinjiang increased by 44%, 49.4%, 34.7% and 40.9% respectively, and maintained a rapid growth trend. In the eastern region, Fujian, Shandong and Zhejiang maintained steady growth, with the growth rates of 6.7%, 6.3% and 4.2% respectively after deducting the tax refund factor; Guangdong decreased slightly by 0.5%, which was 2.5 percentage points narrower than that in January-May, with an increase of 8.9% in June.

  In the first half of the year, the national tax revenue increased by 0.9% after deducting the tax refund factor, showing a gradual recovery trend, and decreased by 14.8% according to the natural caliber. After deducting the tax rebate, the domestic value-added tax decreased by 0.7%, among which, it decreased by 1.1% in June, which was significantly narrower than that in April and May, mainly due to the gradual improvement of industrial added value, service industry production index and other related economic indicators. Corporate income tax, personal income tax, value-added tax on imported goods and consumption tax increased by 3.2%, 8.7% and 14.9% respectively. Revitalizing idle assets through multiple channels led to an increase in non-tax revenue. In the first half of the year, the national non-tax revenue was 1,965.7 billion yuan, an increase of 18%.

  (two) to ensure the intensity of fiscal expenditure, expenditure protection in key areas.

  We will increase the overall planning of financial funds, turn over the profits accumulated in recent years according to law through specific state-owned financial institutions and franchisees, and transfer them to the budget stabilization fund to maintain an appropriate expenditure intensity. In the first half of the year, the total expenditure of the national general public budget was 12.89 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.9%, which was higher than the increase of fiscal revenue. Among them, the central government’s expenditure at this level was 1,563 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.8%; Local expenditure was 11,325.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.9%.

  We will optimize the structure of fiscal expenditure, give priority to supporting key projects that have been included in the outline of the 14 th Five-Year Plan and key special plans, and increase support for scientific and technological research, ecological environmental protection, basic livelihood, modern agriculture and other fields and major regions. Among them, the expenditure on science and technology was 434.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 17.3%; Transportation expenditure was 635.5 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 12%; Expenditure on agriculture, forestry and water was 1,038.3 billion yuan, up 11% year-on-year; Health expenditure was 1,125.9 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 7.7%; Education expenditure was 1,920.8 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.2%; Expenditure on social security and employment was 2,019.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 3.6%.

  Accelerate the progress of fiscal expenditure. After the National People’s Congress approves the budget, the central government will complete the departmental budget approval on the same day, and at the same time pay close attention to the transfer payment budget. Up to now, except for some funds such as factual settlement, all other qualified transfer payments have been issued. Closely track the implementation of local and departmental budgets, supervise and guide the strengthening of budget implementation management, and promote the early implementation of funds and policies.

  (3) Continue to live a tight life and make better use of financial resources.

  Adhere to the requirement of tight days throughout the whole process of budget implementation, which not only fully guarantees the necessary expenditure demand, but also strictly controls the expenditure barrier, hardens the budget constraint, strictly controls the general expenditure, and fully guarantees the key expenditure. The central government takes the lead in living a tight life. On the basis of the negative growth of the central government’s expenditure for two consecutive years, the central government’s expenditure will continue to be negative in 2022, down by 2.1%. During budget implementation, the supplementary budget shall be strictly controlled, and the newly-added urgently needed expenditure of the department shall be given priority through the existing budget as a whole. For matters that really need to be used, the budget shall be strictly examined and submitted to the State Council for approval before being issued. Vigorously revitalize the department’s stock funds and idle assets, and recover the surplus funds and carry-over funds that have not been used up for two consecutive years in accordance with the regulations to avoid idle funds. Evaluate the tight life of the central departments on a quarterly basis, link the evaluation results with the budget arrangement, and urge to strengthen the awareness of thrift. At the same time, local governments should be guided strictly to ensure that precious funds are used in critical areas of development and urgent needs of people’s livelihood.

  Second, increase efforts to help enterprises bail out difficulties and focus on stabilizing the macroeconomic market.

  In view of the needs of market players, we improved fiscal macro-control, paid attention to the coordinated combination of various policy tools, implemented new combined tax and fee support policies, and continuously increased the efforts to reduce burdens and bail-outs. In the first half of the year, 507.4 billion yuan of tax rebates were added and 1,845.5 billion yuan of tax rebates were processed, which effectively boosted the confidence of market players, enhanced the endogenous motivation for development, and promoted stable and healthy economic development.

  (1) Accelerating the implementation of the tax reduction and tax rebate policy.

  First, the value-added tax allowance is refunded in advance on a large scale. Focus on small and micro enterprises and key industries to increase tax refund. All qualified small and micro enterprises and six industries, such as manufacturing, will be included in the scope of policy implementation, and further expanded to seven industries, such as wholesale and retail. The incremental tax allowance will be refunded in full every month and the stock tax allowance will be refunded in full at one time. The total amount of new tax refund for the whole year is about 1.64 trillion yuan. Accelerate the progress of tax refund. Priority will be given to small and micro enterprises, and the stock of medium and large enterprises will be reserved for tax refund in advance. Among them, the remaining tax credits of micro-enterprises and small-scale enterprises will be refunded before April 30 and June 30, 2022 respectively; The stock tax allowance for medium-sized enterprises will be implemented in advance on May 1st and returned centrally before June 30th; Large-scale enterprises’ stock tax allowance will be implemented ahead of June 1 and returned centrally before June 30 to ensure the accelerated release of policy dividends. Strengthen the guarantee of treasury funds. The central government has arranged a special transfer payment of 1.2 trillion yuan to support the grassroots to implement tax reduction and fee reduction and key people’s livelihood, and all of them have been issued; Establish a separate allocation and pre-allocation mechanism for tax refund funds, pre-allocate monthly and roll liquidation to ensure the funds needed for local tax refund, and bring the funds into the direct monitoring system to ensure the timely refund of funds. From April 1 to June 30, the country handled 1,722.2 billion yuan of tax refund for 1.865 million taxpayers. In addition, in the first quarter, it continued to implement the previous old policy of tax refund for tax refund, and in the first half of the year, a total of 1,845.5 billion yuan of tax refund was refunded to taxpayers’ accounts.It has reached 2.9 times the scale of tax refund in the first half of last year, and successfully realized the "big head landing" of the tax refund policy.

  Second, other tax reduction and fee reduction policies to support manufacturing, small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households will continue to be implemented. Small-scale taxpayers are exempted from value-added tax in stages. Expand the scope of application of the "six taxes and two fees" relief to small and meager profit enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households. For small and micro enterprises, the annual taxable income of 1 million yuan to 3 million yuan will be halved, and the actual tax burden will be reduced to 5%. We will intensify the implementation of the policy of adding and deducting R&D expenses, increase the proportion of adding and deducting R&D expenses of small and medium-sized science and technology enterprises to 100%, and improve policies such as accelerated depreciation of equipment and appliances. In the first half of the year, the preferential policy of "six taxes and two fees", the reduction of value-added tax for small-scale taxpayers and the increase of income tax incentives for small and micro enterprises reduced the burden on taxpayers by 83 billion yuan, 79.3 billion yuan and 47.7 billion yuan respectively.

  Third, industries with special difficulties have received precise assistance. The public transportation services such as public transport, which are greatly affected by the epidemic, and the express delivery service of necessary living materials for residents are exempted from VAT. Suspension of air transport and railway transport enterprises to pay VAT in advance for one year. Continue the policy of adding and deducting value-added tax for production and life service industries. In order to stabilize automobile consumption, the vehicle purchase tax will be halved in stages for passenger cars with a displacement of 2.0 liters or less not exceeding 300,000 yuan, which will benefit about 8.7 million passenger cars. Encourage all localities to give relief to taxpayers who have real difficulties in paying urban land use tax.

  (two) the extension of the phased holdover of social security fees.

  The first is the expansion of the industry. On the basis of implementing three social insurance premium policies of phased holdover for the aged, unemployment and work-related injury in five extremely poor industries, such as catering, retail, tourism, civil aviation and highway, waterway and railway transportation, the holdover policy will be further extended to 17 difficult industries, such as agricultural and sideline food processing industry and textile industry, in which the implementation period of holdover for the aged insurance premium will be until the end of 2022, and the holdover period for work-related injury and unemployment insurance will not exceed one year, and the late payment fee will be exempted during the holdover period.

  The second is to postpone the payment. All small and medium-sized enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households with temporary difficulties in production and operation in areas seriously affected by the epidemic can apply for holdover of the unit contributions of pension, unemployment and work-related injury, and the implementation period of holdover will be until the end of 2022, during which the late payment fee will be exempted. Individual industrial and commercial households who participate in the basic old-age insurance for enterprise employees in their personal capacity may voluntarily suspend payment until the end of 2023 if it is difficult to pay the old-age insurance premium in 2022.

  The third is to study and introduce incremental policies. We will implement a phased deferred payment policy for employees’ medical insurance units, make it clear that the accumulated balance of the overall fund can be paid in the overall planning area for more than six months. Since July 2022, small and medium-sized enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households insured by units will be deferred for three months, and the late payment fee will be exempted during the deferred payment period, and the "free application and enjoyment" handling mode will be fully implemented.

  (3) The employment policy of stabilizing posts has been effective and intensified.

  First, the security of employment funds has been increasing. We will give priority to employment. In 2022, the central government allocated 61.758 billion yuan of employment subsidies, an increase of 5.168 billion yuan. At present, 59.758 billion yuan has been allocated to support local governments in implementing employment and entrepreneurship support policies.

  Second, the policy of aiding enterprises to stabilize their posts has been effective. Continue to implement the policy of reducing unemployment insurance rates and industrial injury insurance rates by stages until April 30, 2023. We will continue to implement the policy of stable return of unemployment insurance, and increase the return ratio of large enterprises from 30% in 2021 to 50%, and the return ratio of small and medium-sized enterprises from 60% to 90%. Cities and counties in areas with medium and high-risk epidemic in 2022 may grant a one-time stay-at-work subsidy to all insured enterprises that are temporarily unable to operate normally due to the serious impact of the epidemic, according to the standard that each employee participating in unemployment insurance does not exceed that of 500 yuan, and the policy will be implemented until the end of 2022.

  Third, the employment of key groups has been carried out in a solid manner. For enterprises that recruit college graduates in the graduation year, sign labor contracts and participate in unemployment insurance, they will be granted a one-time job expansion subsidy according to the standard of no more than 1,500 yuan per person; Small and medium-sized enterprises that recruit college graduates in the graduation year and sign labor contracts for more than one year will be given a one-time employment subsidy. The policy of one-time post expansion subsidy and one-time employment subsidy will not be enjoyed repeatedly, and the two policies will be implemented until the end of 2022. Newly established "Central Special Lottery Public Welfare Fund to Support College Students’ Innovation and Entrepreneurship Education Project" and arranged funds of 100 million yuan to promote the development of college students’ innovation and entrepreneurship education. Introduce the national student loan interest-free and principal deferred repayment policy, exempt the national student loan interest that should be repaid in 2022 by graduate loan students in 2022 and previous years, and the interest-free funds shall be borne by the finance; The repayment of the principal can be postponed for one year without penalty interest, which is expected to benefit more than 4 million college graduates.

  With the gradual recovery of the economy and the gradual implementation of various policies to stabilize employment, the trend of rising unemployment rate in urban surveys has been reversed. In the first half of the year, 6.54 million new jobs were created in cities and towns nationwide, and the national average unemployment rate reached 5.7%, and the employment situation generally improved.

  (4) Accurate efforts in government procurement.

  The first is to facilitate the participation of small and medium-sized enterprises in procurement activities. Urge all regions and departments to strengthen the management of procurement demand, standardize the setting of qualification conditions, flexibly reserve the whole project, reasonably reserve procurement packages, require large enterprises to form a consortium with small and medium-sized enterprises, and require large enterprises to subcontract to small and medium-sized enterprises to ensure the contract share of small and medium-sized enterprises. By increasing the proportion of advance payment, introducing credit guarantee, supporting small and medium-sized enterprises to carry out contract financing, and providing free electronic procurement documents, it is convenient for small and medium-sized enterprises to participate in procurement activities. Pay purchasing funds in time in strict accordance with regulations, effectively reducing the financial pressure on SMEs.

  The second is to adjust the price evaluation concessions of small and micro enterprises. Deduct the discount from the original 6%— 10% to 10%— 20%, that is, in the procurement activities, the quotation for small and micro enterprises will be given 10% first & mdash; 20% deduction, after winning the bid, sign the contract according to the actual quotation of small and micro enterprises. The preferential evaluation for large and medium-sized enterprises to form a consortium with small and micro enterprises or for large and medium-sized enterprises to subcontract to small and micro enterprises is changed from 2% to mdash; 3% to 4%— 6%, adding orders, increasing motivation and stabilizing expectations for SMEs.

  The third is to increase the reserved share of government procurement projects. In principle, all engineering procurement projects below 4 million yuan are reserved for small and medium-sized enterprises. For the project procurement projects with more than 4 million yuan that are suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, the reserved share for small and medium-sized enterprises will be gradually increased from 30% to more than 40% in the second half of 2022 on the premise of adhering to the principles of openness, fairness and fair competition and unifying quality standards, so as to further expand the share of small and medium-sized enterprises in obtaining project contracts.

  With the active support of the above policies and measures, the contract amount awarded to small and medium-sized enterprises in national government procurement accounts for about 75% of the national government procurement scale.

  (5) Financing support continued to increase.

  First, inclusive finance’s development support has been further strengthened. In 2022, the central government allocated a special fund budget of 10.707 billion yuan for the development of inclusive finance, and continuously enhanced the ability of financial services to the real economy. In conjunction with relevant parties, the first batch of 83 demonstration zones supported by the central government for inclusive finance’s development were launched, and 2.28 billion yuan of award and compensation funds were allocated to support various localities to build inclusive finance demonstration zones with their own characteristics according to local conditions, so as to promote the expansion, increment, cost reduction and efficiency improvement of inclusive finance’s services.

  Second, the small and micro enterprise financing guarantee fee reduction incentive policy continued to be implemented. We will issue 3 billion yuan as bonus for fee reduction of financing guarantee for small and micro enterprises, focus on expanding the scale of first loan, single-family loan of less than 10 million yuan, medium-and long-term loan guarantee and innovative small and micro enterprise guarantee business, increase support for small and micro enterprises in special difficult industries such as transportation, catering, accommodation and tourism, reduce the rate of financing guarantee, and promote the solution of financing difficulties and expensive financing for small and micro enterprises.

  Third, the government financing guarantee will expand the scope and increase efficiency. We will expand the coverage of government financing guarantees to small and micro enterprises, clarify the target and task of adding more than 1 trillion yuan of re-guarantee cooperation business to the national financing guarantee fund during the year, and give better play to the countercyclical adjustment role of government financing guarantees. In the first half of the year, the national financing guarantee fund has completed the re-guarantee cooperation business scale of 596.2 billion yuan, an increase of 85% year-on-year; Serving 780,000 market players, up 214% year-on-year; The scale of supporting agriculture with small businesses was 588.9 billion yuan, up 86% year-on-year, and the scale of supporting agriculture with small businesses accounted for 98.78%, up 0.09 percentage points year-on-year.

  Third, accelerate the issuance and use of local government special bonds and expand the scope of support to promote the expansion of effective investment.

  Accelerate the issuance and use of special bonds, optimize the investment fields of special bonds, and continuously strengthen the management of special bonds, which has better guaranteed the reasonable financing needs of local governments and effectively played a positive role in promoting the expansion of effective investment and stabilizing the macro-economy.

  (1) The newly-added special bond quota has basically been issued, so as to promote the formation of physical workload as soon as possible.

  According to the requirement of keeping the overall leverage ratio of the government basically stable, in 2022, the National People’s Congress approved a new limit of 3.65 trillion yuan for local government special bonds, which was the same as the previous year. Planning the issuance and use in advance, authorized by the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC), in December 2021, the amount of new special bonds was 1.46 trillion yuan, three months earlier than the previous year, and the amount of new special bonds of 3.45 trillion yuan used for project construction at the end of March was all issued. Optimize the allocation of special bond quotas, give full consideration to local financial conditions, debt risk levels, project reserves and other factors, and tilt the allocation to areas with strong solvency and sufficient project reserves. Make full use of special bonds as the capital policy of major projects, optimize the investment fields of special bonds, and require all localities to give priority to special bond funds for key projects included in the national "14 th Five-Year Plan" and major regional development strategies, and resolutely do not spread "pepper noodles." Guide the local authorities to arrange the issuance time in advance, pay close attention to the budget adjustment procedures, decompose the newly issued quotas into cities and counties in time, and promote the formation of physical workload as soon as possible.

  From January to June, a total of 3.41 trillion yuan of new special bonds were issued. Among the special bonds issued, 1,169.1 billion yuan was used to support municipal construction and industrial park infrastructure, 577.7 billion yuan for transportation infrastructure, 638.9 billion yuan for social undertakings, 529.6 billion yuan for affordable housing projects, 283.2 billion yuan for agriculture, forestry and water conservancy, 127.6 billion yuan for ecological protection and 80.2 billion yuan for energy and urban and rural cold chain logistics infrastructure, which played an important role in stabilizing the macro-economy. Among them, all localities have arranged more than 240 billion yuan of special bond funds as capital for major projects, effectively giving play to the inciting role of government investment. Under the premise of compliance with laws and controllable risks, guide commercial banks to provide supporting financing support for qualified special bond project construction entities.

  (2) Incorporate new infrastructure and new energy projects into the scope of support, and prepare key projects in advance.

  Expand the scope of priority support for special bonds. According to the deployment requirements of the State Council, we will study and reasonably expand the scope of special bonds, and on the basis of existing transportation infrastructure, energy, ecological and environmental protection, affordable housing projects and other fields, we will clearly include qualified government investment projects in new energy and new infrastructure areas into the scope of local government special bonds to help the development of emerging industries.

  Do a deep and detailed project reserve. Guide the local authorities to do a good job in the normalization of special bond projects in accordance with the requirements of "putting a batch of reserves into storage, issuing and using a batch, and starting construction a batch". In 2022, 71,000 special bond projects will be reserved in two batches. In the first half of the year, the newly issued special bonds supported more than 23,800 projects, including about 10,800 projects under construction and about 13,000 new projects.

  (3) Strengthen the supervision and management of bond funds, and further improve the efficiency in the use of funds.

  Strictly implement the negative list management of special bonds, and it is strictly forbidden to use bond funds for buildings, halls, image projects, performance projects and non-public welfare capital expenditure projects. Strengthen daily supervision and management, carry out penetrating monitoring of special bond projects, report the progress of early warning of special bond expenditures on a monthly basis, regularly carry out special inspections on the use and management of special bonds, comprehensively tighten the management responsibilities of competent departments and project units, strictly implement the punishment mechanism for handling special bond funds, strengthen the rigid constraints on violations, and promote the legal and compliant use of special bond funds.

  Fourth, improve the direct mechanism of normalized financial funds, and release funds quickly and accurately.

  Further expand the scope of direct funds, speed up the release and use of funds, strengthen monitoring and management, and the direct mechanism of financial funds works well, with obvious policy effects, and the role of benefiting enterprises and benefiting the people is effectively brought into play.

  (a) expand the scope of funds, the total scale of direct funds is about 4 trillion yuan.

  All eligible funds for benefiting enterprises and benefiting the people will be included in the direct range, with a total capital scale of about 4 trillion yuan, an increase of about 1.2 trillion yuan over the previous year. In particular, this year’s one-time transfer payments to support grassroots implementation of tax reduction and fee reduction and key people’s livelihood will be included in the direct fund management, and the direct mechanism will effectively play an important role in safeguarding people’s livelihood and supporting grassroots operations. At the same time, local governments are required to include local financial funds corresponding to the direct funds of the central government in the direct scope, and local governments are encouraged to include their own funds for benefiting enterprises and benefiting the people in the direct scope in light of actual conditions, so as to further amplify the effect of the direct mechanism.

  (B) quickly issued for use, direct funding effect.

  First, the budget funds were quickly released and implemented. In the first half of the year, out of about 4 trillion yuan of direct funds, the central government has allocated 3.992 trillion yuan, accounting for 97.9%. All qualified funds have been allocated, and the outstanding funds are mainly factual settlement projects. The local finance has allocated 3.625 trillion yuan to the fund users, accounting for 90.8% of the central finance, and promoted the timely implementation of funds.

  Second, the overall use of expenditure is relatively fast. In the first half of the year, in addition to the funds allocated by local governments to support tax refund, tax reduction and fee reduction, 357,000 projects were arranged through direct funds, resulting in an expenditure of 1.848 trillion yuan, accounting for 57.9% of the 3.192 trillion yuan issued by the central government, 7.9 percentage points higher than the scheduled progress, and the overall use of funds was nearly one month faster. The focus of expenditure is tilted to the grassroots level, with provincial expenditure of 0.646 trillion yuan, accounting for 35%; The expenditure of cities and counties was 1.202 trillion yuan, accounting for 65%.

  Third, the policy of benefiting enterprises and benefiting the people has achieved remarkable results. In terms of protecting the main body of the market, all localities not only support enterprises by offsetting income such as tax refund, tax reduction and fee reduction, but also help enterprises through financial expenditure. According to incomplete statistics, related direct benefits to enterprises cost about 350 billion yuan, benefiting 680,000 market participants, totaling 2.56 million times. In terms of ensuring residents’ employment, it is preliminarily estimated that the expenditure directly used for employment exceeds 20 billion yuan, which promotes the implementation of the employment priority policy and stabilizes the employment situation. In terms of ensuring basic people’s livelihood, according to preliminary statistics, the expenditure on basic people’s livelihood such as pension, compulsory education, basic medical care and basic housing reached 1.17 trillion yuan, helping to firmly grasp the bottom line of people’s livelihood.

  (3) Strengthen the supervision of funds to ensure that the direct use of funds is standardized, safe and efficient.

  (two) strictly implement the responsibility to ensure that the "three guarantees" expenditure is given priority.

  In accordance with the principle of "county-level-oriented, municipal-level assistance, provincial-level bottom-up, and central incentives", the graded responsibility system is implemented. The financial operation of established counties (including county-level cities) is mainly responsible by the provincial finance, and the financial operation of municipal districts is mainly responsible by the prefecture-level cities where they are located, and the responsibility of "three guarantees" is always the same. We will improve the incentive and restraint mechanism, and when arranging general transfer payments, the central government will reward areas that have achieved remarkable results in strengthening the "three guarantees" guarantee and improving the county-level financial level and balance. Strengthen work guidance and supervision, require local governments to take the "three guarantees" expenditure as the focus of budget arrangements, adhere to the priority of the "three guarantees" expenditure in fiscal expenditure, and take practical measures to ensure that the salaries and pensions of key groups such as teachers are paid on time.

When will the traffic anxiety stop? Kaimeng lays out Alipay’s "Star Plan" to help businesses reduce costs and improve efficiency.

With the rising cost of online and offline customer acquisition in recent years, many businesses are caught in traffic anxiety. If a mature offline brand wants to quickly open online marketing channels and get twice the result with half the effort, is there any low-cost and efficient method?

Hangzhou Kaimeng is a service provider that helps offline brands to make digital transformation and traffic growth. Up to now, the number of cooperative businesses has exceeded 50, including Mao Geping, Nature Hall, Kans and other beauty head chain brands. As a service provider deeply involved in Alipay platform, Kaimeng launched Alipay applet for Mao Geping in May last year, and helped Mao Geping actively expand online marketing with its powerful public domain traffic and its own rich operation methods.

Recently, Kaimeng noticed that Alipay upgraded its "Star Plan", and announced that it would subsidize over 10 billion public domain traffic within six months, and open core public domains such as Alipay homepage card and payment success page. Kaimeng knew that this was a good opportunity to use Alipay public domain to help businesses grow up in private domain, so it seized the bonus period and took the lead in opening a more efficient online customer acquisition channel for Mao Geping, achieving a great effect.

First, master the platform subsidy policy and seize the first-Mover advantage of traffic

The basic rule of "Star Project" is that merchants first attract users to visit Alipay applets by guiding users to scan code, actively search, card package, my applet, life number and messages. According to the monthly user access increment, Alipay will calculate the incentive points and return them to the merchants, who can use these points in the public domain such as the payment success page to make greater promotion.

Through various activities in the early stage, Kaimeng has helped Mao Geping to accumulate huge user assets, and established a return visit path and recall means for users. Now, these return visits can be converted into incentive points through the Star Project, which will be put into a new round of promotion and attract more users to visit. This is equivalent to the free traffic that the platform sends to merchants.

Second, actively do a good job in daily private domain operations and obtain more incentive income.

Mao Geping has actively participated in various activities and games since launching Alipay applet. In fact, these actions were not for the "Star Project" at the beginning, but they needed to carry out these operations themselves.

"Star Plan" is a traffic incentive plan, which can also be understood as a traffic amplifier. It provides a proportional return of traffic for businesses that meet the incentive conditions. Therefore, there is a premise here, that is, to obtain traffic incentives, we must first do a good job in daily operations, especially the means of building private domain capabilities and recalling them. These are the key points of policy incentives.

Third, improve the closed loop of traffic and enhance the delivery effect.

In the process of participating in the "Star Project", merchants should also do a good job in link design to form a positive cycle of increasing traffic. Considering the price, past transformation data and stock preparation, Mao Geping locked in the products, and after careful design and early testing, we can clearly see the effect and value brought by the Star Project in the process, and constantly optimize the promotion strategy according to the data.

Up to now, Kaimeng has helped Mao Geping to launch the incentive points obtained through the Star Project for three times, and finally gained over 46 million exposures and over 2.5 million direct conversion hits.

Kaimeng believes that Alipay’s "Star Plan" is very effective for merchants’ traffic blessing, brand influence shaping and private domain users precipitation. If there are service providers who have mastered mature methodology, there will be more opportunities for merchants.

Wuzhen: "Touching" the Internet has turned into a world Internet window in five years.

  "From the first world internet conference in 2014 to the present, Wuzhen has gradually become a sample and window for the development of the Internet in the world. In recent years, I have always felt the little changes in the ancient town." Jiang Fuliang, the driver of car ferry in Wuzhen Xizha Scenic Area, has worked here for nearly 10 years. Whenever a passenger talks to him about this wise ancient town, this Wuzhen fellow always likes to talk about these words.

  Wuzhen is unique because of its unique style of "every family has a pillow river and a small bridge with flowing water"; Wuzhen, as the permanent meeting place of world internet conference (also known as "Wuzhen Summit"), witnessed the "butterfly road" in the Internet age. In the view of Sheng Yongjun, secretary of Tongxiang Municipal Committee of Zhejiang Province, Wuzhen used to be a symbol of tourism, and later evolved into a symbol of drama and culture. Now it has become a symbol of the Internet and digital economy.

  In the past five years, what "net stories" have been staged in this Millennium ancient town between white walls and black tiles? What changes have taken place here after the dividend accumulation of the previous four Wuzhen Summits?

  Internet Town "Renovating" Dream Water Town

  "One brick, one tile, one bridge and one pavilion in the scenic spot are coming from the 8K ultra-HD picture … …” With the help of the low delay and high speed of 5G, people basically realized the synchronization of "I am on the scene" and "I am on the TV screen" through the 5G experience car screen next to the business hall of Zhejiang Mobile Wuzhen Fenshuidun. At present, a number of 5G base stations in Wuzhen are being opened one after another. During this summit, the construction of 5G trial network will be launched in Wuzhen.

  Only by double verification of "ID card+face", no one can participate in the hotel from check-in to check-out. In the natural and cultural village of Tanjia Qixiang, Wuzhen, which is less than 200 meters away from Wuzhen Xizha Scenic Area, a smart homestay experience has recently been launched. "Through ‘ Full portrait routing hub ’ The system is connected in series with almost all the intelligent subsystems of the hotel. Visitors can not only control TV, air conditioner and curtains, but also experience wireless charging. " Zhu Zhaokui, the person in charge of the hotel project, said.

  Not far from Smart B&B, Wuzhen Zhicai Primary School is famous for "Internet+Education". Here, students’ foreign language classes can not only be taught by foreign teachers through the network, but also 3D printing, drones and laser engraving have become normal courses. Peng Jianqing, the principal of Zhicai Primary School, said: "Through the project-based curriculum, students have the opportunity to use knowledge both inside and outside the classroom, and through the combination of online and offline, they are intelligently integrated ‘ Play ’ With ‘ Learn ’ 。”

  "Wuzhen Avenue" undertakes the overflow bonus of the summit

  In the process of economic take-off in many parts of the country, one avenue often plays an important role. For example, Shenzhen has a "Shennan Avenue" that focuses on innovative industries, and Suzhou Industrial Park has a "Jinjihu Avenue" that carries the development of advanced manufacturing industries; In July this year, in Tongxiang, Zhejiang, a "Wuzhen Avenue" was officially opened to traffic. Starting from Wuzhen at the northern end and heading south along the avenue, this road not only connects many scenic spots, but also passes through Tongxiang Economic Development Zone, Puyuan Town and other "three towns, two districts and three streets", forming the "Wuzhen Avenue Science and Technology Cluster" which has attracted much attention.

  Why should we lay out "Wuzhen Avenue" and the science and technology gathering area? Sheng Yongjun said that a large number of traditional enterprises in Tongxiang are relatively low-end and the output rate is not high, but they occupy relatively more land, environmental capacity and energy, and need to develop into high-end industries urgently; In addition, world internet conference has become a platform for Internet sharing and co-governance. As the permanent venue of the conference, it is also the meaning of the topic to undertake the spillover effect of the conference.

  How to accept the summit bonus? On this avenue that runs through the north and south of Tongxiang, we can find the answer: not a wool is produced, but 700 million sweaters flow from here to various places every year. Take Puyuan Town, the "first town of sweaters" famous for its traditional industries, for example, to realize the double growth of online and offline sales through the Internet and turn it into an Internet fashion town; In Tongxiang Economic Development Zone, a large number of high-quality intelligent manufacturing projects are constantly gathering, and more than 20 foreign-funded projects have been signed in the first nine months of this year.

  Innovation and entrepreneurship gather to cultivate new kinetic energy for development.

  Chenzhuang Village in Wuzhen is a famous hometown of bamboo weaving. In the first two years, the handicrafts of Qian Lihuai, a young bamboo weaver born in 1980s, appeared at the Wuzhen Summit for two consecutive years. More than 10 years ago, after graduating from Qian Lihuai University, he returned to his hometown Wuzhen to start a bamboo weaving business. With Internet e-commerce and live broadcast, Wuzhen bamboo weaving became more and more famous. "As a carrier of culture, bamboo weaving should continuously enhance its cultural value and artistic connotation on the basis of using the Internet platform in order to go far." When I saw Qian Lihuai several times, he told reporters like this.

  "High-capacity tamper-proof digital technology based on biometric information can effectively help ‘ Run at most once ’ 。” In a narrow studio in Tongxiang Science and Technology Park, Yi Shen, the founder of Unitek Technology, talks about the technical concept of "digital chip". Last year, he gave up the generous treatment of foreign companies and returned to his hometown to set up the science and technology company in front of him. "The Internet entrepreneurial atmosphere in his hometown is good, and through world internet conference, our products and technologies can be widely used."

  With the "dividends" released by previous summits, more and more makers like Qian Lihuai and Yi Shen have settled down in Wuzhen and Tongxiang. In the future, Tongxiang will also regard the digital economy as the "No.1 Project" and strive to build a digital economy highland. In fact, a wave of dividends has affected Wuzhen, Tongxiang, and the whole of Zhejiang Province and even the whole country.

  In the tide of digitalization, Xinhua Group has set up administrative and operational headquarters in Hangzhou and Beijing, and has also added several R&D bases in Chengdu and Hefei in two years. "All localities are gathering Internet talents and developing advantageous industries according to urban positioning, which gives us the opportunity to realize the national industrial layout and help the digital transformation of various industries." Sun Minglan, senior vice president of Xinhua Group III, said.

  From November 7th to 9th, the world Internet will once again enter "Wuzhen Time". This conference will set up 19 sub-forums, focusing on hot topics such as artificial intelligence, 5G, big data, network security and digital silk road. "From the initial participation and exchange, to brainstorming with the industry big coffee in the sub-forum last year, and then to give a keynote speech this year, my annual trip to Wuzhen has reached a higher level." Kevin Jiang, founder of Tongdun Technology, is full of expectations for this conference.

  As night falls, the International Convention and Exhibition Center, the permanent site of the conference, is still brightly lit, and the banquet center separated from the other road will be officially opened. The two landmark buildings combine Internet elements with the characteristics of Jiangnan water town, and complement each other with this Millennium-old town, waiting for the opening of this grand event.

Gale+rainstorm+lightning strikes! Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei once again ushered in heavy rainfall.

  BEIJING, July 24 (Xinhua)-According to comprehensive news, the No.10 typhoon "Abe" landed on the coast of Chongming Island in Shanghai at noon on the 22nd, passed through Jiangsu and Shandong, and entered Hebei Province in the early morning of the 24th. Affected by the weakened cloud system around the low-pressure system, there will be heavy rains in northern Shandong, central and eastern Beijing, eastern Hebei and Tianjin from 20: 00 on the 23rd to 20: 00 on the 24th. Among them, there will be heavy rain in parts of northwestern Shandong, eastern Hebei, Tianjin and northeastern Beijing. Please ask the local people to take safety precautions.

  The No.10 typhoon "Abe" is the typhoon that has affected China the most widely this year. "Abe" landed on the coast of Chongming Island in Shanghai, all the way north, passing through Jiangsu and Shandong, and entered the territory of Hebei Province in the early morning of the 24th.

  Historically, typhoon No.9608, No.9406, Tim, No.9711, Winnie, No.0509 and Mai Sha all had similar tracks to Abe, and all of them had caused heavy rainfall in the north. It is rare for Beijing to be affected by typhoons. The last time was 0509 "Mai Sha", which landed in Zhejiang, China, and continued northward to Jiangsu and Shandong, affecting Beijing.

  [Hebei and Tianjin issued typhoon warnings for the first time]

  The Meteorological Observatory of Hebei Province issued a blue warning signal for typhoon at 15: 26 on the 23rd: due to the weakening of the low pressure caused by typhoon Abe, it is estimated that the winds in coastal waters and coastal areas will reach 7-8 and the gusts will be 9-10, and the coastal tidal level will increase significantly from the night of the 23rd to the day of the 24th. The land winds in Tangshan, Qinhuangdao and Cangzhou can reach 5-6, and the gusts are 7-8.

  The Tianjin Meteorological Observatory issued a blue warning signal for typhoon in Tianjin at 13: 22 on the 23rd: due to the weakening of low pressure caused by typhoon Abe, it is expected that there will be windy weather in Tianjin from the night of 23rd to the day of 24th, and the wind will reach 6-7, with a gust of 8. At the same time, there will be 8 ~ 9 winds and 10 gusts in the Bohai Sea.

  This is the first time that Tianjin and Hebei have issued typhoon warning information since China Meteorological Bureau officially implemented the Measures for the Issuance and Dissemination of Meteorological Disaster Warning Signals in 2007.

  The Beijing Meteorological Observatory issued blue rainstorm warning, blue gale warning and yellow warning signal of meteorological risk of geological disasters at 6: 00 on the 24th. During the day on the 24th, there was moderate to heavy rain in Beijing and heavy rain in the east, accompanied by gusts of magnitude 7 or so. There will be secondary disasters such as floods, flash floods and geological disasters in small and medium-sized rivers in mountainous areas and shallow mountainous areas, and there will be water accumulation in low-lying areas of cities.

  The Beijing Municipal Planning and Land Commission and the Municipal Meteorological Bureau jointly upgraded and issued a yellow warning of meteorological risk of geological disasters at 20: 00 on the 23rd. In the next 24 hours, the risk of geological disasters such as mudslides, collapses and landslides will be high in Fangshan, Mentougou, Haidian, Fengtai, Shijingshan, Changping, Huairou, Miyun, Yanqing and Pinggu in Beijing, so please take precautions.

  [Capital Airport: Please adjust the itinerary in time if the weather affects the take-off and landing of flights]

  Weibo, the official news of Beijing Capital International Airport: After verification with the meteorological department, it was found that there was heavy rain at the Capital Airport from 6: 00 to 11: 00 on the 24th, which lasted until the night of the 24th, and the accumulated precipitation could reach heavy rain, which may have an impact on the production and operation of the Capital Airport. All the security units of the Capital Airport have made preparations for the handling of flight delays in advance.

  The Capital Airport reminds that bad weather will have a great impact on the operation of civil aviation. Passengers are requested to pay attention to the flight information released by their airlines and adjust their itinerary in time.

  [Beijing Flood Control Headquarters: It is recommended to go to work at the wrong peak]

  Beijing Flood Control Headquarters reminds that there will be heavy rainfall in Beijing from the night of 23rd to 24th. Please make reasonable arrangements for travel, choose public transportation as far as possible, avoid morning and evening peaks by car, stay away from rivers and dangerous mountainous areas, and pay attention to prevent geological disasters such as mountain torrents and mudslides. It is suggested that qualified units go to work at the wrong peak.

  The rainfall in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region was influenced by the low-pressure peripheral cloud system after the typhoon Abe landed weakened, and its intensity was not the same as the storm brought by the typhoon when it landed directly in the southern coastal cities.

  As there is still uncertainty about the falling area of heavy rainfall, the public is reminded to pay close attention to the approaching forecast in time, pay attention to travel safety, and try not to go to dangerous areas in mountainous areas, rivers and areas with hidden dangers of geological disasters. Relevant departments should also strengthen inspections of hidden dangers to prevent geological disasters such as floods, mountain torrents, mudslides, landslides and collapses in small and medium-sized rivers that may be induced by heavy rainfall in mountainous areas.

  The wind and rain impact of the low-pressure system after the typhoon weakened on the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region will end on the 25th. However, due to the influence of weather systems such as cold air and westerly trough, there are still scattered showers and thunderstorms in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region from 25 to 26.

  Suggestion: Remember to take an umbrella when traveling. Although it rains, it is still sultry, so you still need to pay attention to heatstroke prevention and cooling.

"Export to Domestic Sales" Transfers out of New Space

  Recently, the Ministry of Commerce announced that it will deepen the integration of domestic and foreign trade and help foreign trade enterprises whose exports are blocked to explore the domestic market. Under the policy call, leading retail enterprises such as JD.COM, Box Horse, Yonghui Supermarket and CR Vanguard responded quickly, helping foreign trade enterprises to expand domestic sales by opening up "green channels" and setting up special procurement funds.

  Speaking of "export to domestic sales", people with a little experience will not be unfamiliar. In the 1980s and 1990s, "export to domestic market" and "foreign trade goods" often meant high quality, which was synonymous with good things and tight goods. Nowadays, times have changed. Helping foreign trade enterprises "export to domestic sales" is a trend, and it has strong practical pertinence and urgency.

  For foreign trade enterprises, expanding domestic sales channels can alleviate the pressure of export obstruction and inventory backlog, and solve the urgent need; For consumers, the entry of export products into the domestic market will effectively enrich commodity categories, promote market competition and enhance the sense of "buy in buy buy"; For e-commerce platforms and offline supermarkets, this move will also help to expand the supply chain and enhance their attractiveness and competitiveness … It can be seen that "exporting to domestic sales" is a real win-win move.

  In the long run, this move is not an expedient measure. According to statistics, in 2024, among the hundreds of thousands of enterprises with export performance in China, nearly 85% enterprises are engaged in domestic sales at the same time, and it is a general trend to give consideration to both inside and outside. "Export to domestic sales" has long-term significance for foreign trade enterprises to enhance their resilience and enhance their overall strength. From the overall situation, it is self-evident that the significance of boosting consumption and expanding domestic demand in an all-round way at present. Boosting consumption needs supply innovation and good goods to help-promoting the "silky" foreign trade products into thousands of households is of great benefit to boosting consumption.

  How to "turn" exports to domestic sales? It must be noted that foreign trade and domestic demand markets are different, with different standards and different channels, and many foreign trade enterprises are facing the problem of "acclimatization". In particular, it is very important to unblock channels. In this regard, the e-commerce platform can play a strong assisting role through direct procurement, traffic tilt, marketing support and intensive training. For example, in view of the pain points and needs of foreign trade enterprises, some platforms indicated that they would directly purchase high-quality products of foreign trade enterprises by relying on the self-operated mode and supply chain capabilities, and set up a foreign trade excellent product area to accelerate the opening of sales through traffic tilt and omni-channel marketing support.

  At present, all parties are speeding up the opening of the "export to domestic sales" policy. Focusing on "export to domestic sales", large enterprises such as e-commerce and Shangchao have moved at the news, showing the responsibility of enterprises, which is also the transmission of confidence and the convergence of strength. I believe that with the efforts of all parties, "export to domestic sales" will become a new blue ocean and open up a new world.

Why did Gree sell Gree? The change of control rights ushered in new progress.

Wen | Biange @ Shijin Institute

Gree Electric’s control rights change ushered in new progress!

On the evening of April 8, Gree Electric announced that Gree Group intends to transfer 15% of the total share capital of Gree Electric held by Gree Group through public solicitation of transferees.

After the transfer is completed, the controlling shareholder and actual controller of Gree Electric may change. On April 9, Gree Electric resumed trading, and the daily limit was directly increased after the opening.

Information shows that Gree Electric landed on the main board of Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 1996. After listing, Gree Group has been the controlling shareholder, and the actual controller is Zhuhai SASAC. In 2004, Zhu Jianghong, then the chairman of Gree Electric, said that Gree Electric would introduce strategic investors instead of monopolizing state-owned shares.

In March 2006, Gree Electric started the share-trading reform, and the shareholding ratio of Gree Group decreased to 41.06%. By realizing the circulation of state-owned shares, Gree Group set aside some shares from its holdings as the stock source of Gree Electric management’s equity incentive plan.

In order to introduce the dealer alliance into the company’s strategic investors, Gree Group transferred part of its equity to Hebei Jinghai Guarantee Investment Co., Ltd., which is the shareholder of Gree Electric’s major dealers. These measures have reduced the shareholding ratio of Gree Group.

Gree Electric’s 2010 annual report shows that Gree Group holds 1.096 billion shares, with a shareholding ratio of 18.22%. Subsequently, it has been maintained at this shareholding number and shareholding ratio.

Gree Electric’s third quarterly report in 2018 shows that apart from Gree Group, the second largest shareholder among the top ten shareholders is Hebei Jinghai Guarantee Investment Co., Ltd., which is owned by the main distributor in Gree Electric and holds 8.91% of the shares in Gree Electric. The third to ninth shareholders are all institutional investors, and the tenth largest shareholder is Dong Mingzhu, with a shareholding ratio of 0.74%.

If the transfer of shares is successful, the proportion of shares held by Gree Group in Gree Electric will drop to 3.22%, and it will still rank among the top 10 shareholders.

By 2018, the total operating income of Gree Group is expected to exceed 200 billion yuan, the net profit exceeds 26 billion yuan, and the net profit attributable to state-owned shareholders exceeds 4 billion yuan, up by 33.37%, 19.15% and 12.90% respectively. Among them, Gree Electric made a great contribution.

According to Gree Electric’s performance forecast, in 2018, Gree Electric is expected to achieve operating income of 200 billion to 201 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of more than 33.33%; It is estimated that the net profit will be 26-27 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 16%-21%.

In addition, Gree Electric pays large dividends almost every year. Since its listing in 1996, Gree Electric has paid dividends for 19 times, with a cumulative dividend of 41.8 billion yuan, with a dividend rate of 40.65%. Statistics show that after listing, Gree Group received more than 8.8 billion yuan in dividends from Gree Electric.

In fact, this sale plan of Gree Group makes investors quite puzzled. With low valuation, sufficient cash flow and high profit level, Gree Electric is a high-quality "white horse stock" envied by everyone in the capital market. For the major shareholder Gree Group, it is definitely a quality asset. Then, why did Gree Group sell the equity of Gree Electric and give up its controlling position?

(1) Liquidating funds and investing in other projects

According to the announcement issued by Gree Electric on April 8, equity transfer price is not lower than the arithmetic average of the daily weighted average price in the 30 trading days before April 9, and the final transfer price is subject to the result of public solicitation and approval by the state-owned assets supervision and administration department.

According to the average share price of 45.59 yuan/share in the 30 trading days before April 9, the market value of Gree Electric’s 15% equity is about41.1 billion yuan.

If the equity transfer plan goes smoothly, Gree Group will recover more than 40 billion yuan in one time, accounting for one-third of Zhuhai’s fiscal revenue in 2018.

According to public information, Gree Group was founded in March 1985 and has grown into the largest and most powerful state-owned leading enterprise in Zhuhai, covering manufacturing, financial investment, construction investment, construction and installation, and island tourism.

Gree Group owns more than 20 companies, including Gree Electric, Gree New Technology, Zhuhai Jian ‘an Group, Gree Energy Trade, Gree Aviation Investment, Gree Petrochemical and Gree Finance.

Official website, Gree Group, said that it will deepen the strategic pattern of "one core and four pillars" around the goal of "building a domestic first-class comprehensive enterprise driven by investment and innovation" and create a new situation of "second venture" with greater achievements.

2018 is the foundation year of Gree Group’s "second venture". At the 2019 work conference held by Gree Group in January 2019, Zhou Lewei, chairman of Gree Group, proposed that in the work of 2019, we should actively promote all work to make bright spots and show the new image of Gree Group’s "second venture".

For the huge amount of money harvested after the sale of Gree’s equity, Gree Group can not only increase its capital, but also set up industrial funds to invest in other potential industries.

In addition, on April 1st, after the central government lowered the value-added tax, the fiscal revenue of the Pearl River City may be compressed, and the sale of Gree shares can also supplement some government coffers.

(2) conform to the trend of mixed reform of state-owned enterprises

In fact, as early as 2013, the National Development and Reform Commission issued a document to support private enterprises and foreign enterprises to acquire holding state-owned enterprises. The so-called mixed reform (mixed ownership reform of state-owned enterprises) is to add private (unofficial) capital to the state-controlled enterprises, making the state-owned enterprises become multi-holding, but still state-controlled enterprises to participate in market competition. The ultimate goal of mixed reform is to make the state-owned enterprises more competitive and dynamic in the reform and make the governance system of state-owned enterprises more in line with the modern corporate governance mechanism.

In October 2018, the central government successively issued a number of policies to promote mixed reform. the State Council, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and local governments successively issued policies to allow private enterprises to participate in shares, even holding state-owned enterprises, without setting an upper limit on the shareholding ratio. In January 2019, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) once again clearly put forward the policy of supporting mixed reform.

It is against this background that the controlling rights of many state-owned listed companies have changed recently. For example, the actual controller of Zhongju Gaoxin was changed to Yao Zhenhua of Baoneng Department, and the actual controller of Hanshang Group was changed from Wuhan SASAC to Yan Zhi, a natural person.

Facing the trend of mixed reform of state-owned enterprises, it is the general trend for Gree Group and Zhuhai Municipal Government to promote the reform of mixed ownership in Gree Electric.

Specifically, the strategic reduction of Gree Electric by Zhuhai State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission is a key measure to promote the reform of state-owned enterprises to "manage capital", which has reference significance for Guangdong Province and even the whole country to further implement the reform of mixed ownership of state-owned enterprises.

In September 2018, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of Zhuhai issued a guiding opinion on improving the quality of state-owned enterprises, proposing to steadily implement the reform of mixed ownership, taking diversification of property rights and introducing strategic investors as a breakthrough to promote the mixed reform of municipal enterprises.

On the timetable, this opinion pointed out that by 2021, the coverage rate of mixed ownership reform of Zhuhai municipal enterprises at all levels should reach more than 70%, and 2-3 mixed reforms will be implemented at the group level, and 2-3 listed companies will participate in investment in advanced manufacturing industries.

Gree Electric is a commercial state-owned enterprise in fully competitive industries and fields, and it is also a very famous high-quality asset, so it is of great significance to mix and reform it.

The reform of mixed ownership will make Gree Electric truly realize the transformation from mixed ownership to reform. By introducing strategic investors, three system reforms will be further promoted in the process of mixed ownership reform, and market-oriented selection and employment and incentive and restraint mechanisms will be established, which will help Gree Electric to establish an effective corporate governance structure with checks and balances and a flexible and efficient market-oriented operating mechanism.

As one of the earliest four special economic zones in China, Zhuhai’s move of "returning and bringing in" will not only conform to the deepening situation of state-owned enterprise reform, but also strongly promote the transformation of government image and the "second venture" of Zhuhai’s economy. In this process, Gree Electric is expected to lead a new round of mixed reform in Zhuhai.

(3) The control right of Zhuhai SASAC has already been weakened.

From the perspective of shareholding structure, Gree Group is the largest shareholder in Gree Electric, with a shareholding ratio of 18.22%, and Dong Mingzhu personally holds 0.74% of Gree Electric, making it the tenth largest shareholder in Gree Electric.

However, for a long time, the control right of Zhuhai SASAC over Gree Electric has been greatly weakened. Under such circumstances, it is understandable that Gree Group "has" backed out.

Since Dong Mingzhu took charge of Gree, the wrestling between Dong Mingzhu and Zhuhai SASAC, the major shareholder of Gree Group, has been going on.

In May 2012, when Zhu Jianghong stepped down as the chairman of Gree Group and Gree Electric, Dong Mingzhu took over as the chairman of Gree Group, but Zhuhai SASAC appointed Zhou Shaoqiang, the former deputy director of SASAC, as the party secretary and president of Gree Group, and nominated him as the director of Gree Electric.

According to the conventional script, Zhou Shaoqiang will be the chairman of Gree Electric, but he failed to pass the election of the board of directors and only got 36.6% of the votes.

In January 2013, it was revealed that Zhou Shaoqiang spent 12 bottles of red wine in a luxury club, and was removed from the leadership position of Gree Group.

In October 2016, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of Zhuhai dismissed Dong Mingzhu as the chairman, president and legal representative of Gree Group on the grounds that the chairman of the listed company and its affiliated group could not serve concurrently.

The fierce control struggle is coming to an end in 2018, and the newly appointed Zhuhai Municipal Party Committee Secretary said, "I hope Dong Mingzhu will lead the young Gree to continue to create brilliant achievements".

On January 16th, 2019, the list of the new board of directors of Gree Electric was finally released. This time, there were 9 directors, 2 more than the previous one. Among them, there are still three independent directors, namely Liu Shuwei, Xing Ziwen and Wang Xiaohua. The number of non-independent directors increased from 4 to 6, namely Dong Mingzhu, Huang Hui, Wang Jingdong, Zhang Wei, Zhang Jun Governor and Guo Shuzhan.

Almost all of these six non-independent directors come from the senior management of Gree Electric, among which Gree Group, the major shareholder of Gree Electric, has acquired four directors, namely Dong Mingzhu, Huang Hui, Wang Jingdong and Zhang Wei. Huang Hui is the CEO of Gree Electric, Wang Jingdong is the vice president, financial controller and secretary of the board of directors of Gree Electric, and Zhang Wei is currently the executive vice president of Gree Group.

The other two non-independent directors, Governor Zhang Jun and Guo Shuzhan, are also the backbone of the Gree Electric dealer system built by Dong Mingzhu. Such a list once again ensures Dong Mingzhu’s controlling position in Gree Electric.

According to the shareholder information of Gree Electric, the current shareholding ratio of Gree Group, the controlling shareholder, is 18.22%. After the transfer of 15%, Gree Group will continue to hold 3.22% of the shares.

According to Gree Electric’s Articles of Association, shareholders holding more than 3% of shares have the right to nominate directors. Gree Group shares still left 3.22% after the transfer of shares, which may be related to this relevant regulation. In this way, in the corporate governance structure of Gree Electric in the future, Zhuhai SASAC will still retain certain right to speak and make business decisions.

It is worth noting that the retention of shares and the right to nominate seats on the board of directors echo the revision of Gree Electric’s Articles of Association in early 2019. On January 2, 2019, Gree Electric revised the Articles of Association, adding two institutions: the Party Committee and the Commission for Discipline Inspection.

The second, third, fourth and fifth largest shareholders in Gree Electric’s shareholding structure are Hebei Jinghai Guarantee Investment Co., Ltd., with a shareholding ratio of 8.91%; Hong Kong Securities Clearing Company Limited (Land Stock Connect) holds 7.86%; China Securities Finance Co., Ltd. holds 2.99%; Qianhai Life Insurance Company Limited &mdash; &mdash; Haili holds 1.92% every year.

If 15% of Gree Group’s shares are transferred to a single strategic investor, then Gree Group will become the fifth largest shareholder. Looking back, the reason why Gree Group set up two new governance institutions in early 2019 may be to consider maintaining the influence of Zhuhai SASAC beyond the shareholding ratio.

Four Small Ways for Migrant Workers to Wash away "Class Taste" | |WEEKLY

Original simple psychology

Hi, welcome to the column I read literature for the people ~

I have a friend who has been unemployed at home for half a year and recently found a new job. After returning to the workplace for a week, he sent a circle of friends (the boss and colleagues have been blocked): the class has not been on for a few days, and the "class flavor" is already very strong.

It is said that as long as you have been to work, it will smell like work, and it is difficult to get rid of it. What exactly is "banwei"? In fact, it refers to the unique fatigue of migrant workers.

This issue of "Simple Psychological WEEKLY" focuses on: What behaviors will alleviate/aggravate the "class taste" of migrant workers? You can see:

Those who choose actively are called "real rest"

Learn to fish regularly and correctly.

If you want to double the holiday effect, don’t pile up your work after rework.

Doing this after work can effectively relieve fatigue.

01

Those who choose actively are called "real rest"

I don’t know if you have a similar experience: I want to eat a takeaway alone at noon, but I am dragged out to eat by my colleagues; I wanted to go home after work at night, but my boss called me to sing K songs …

Although it is true that I am not working, my sense of fatigue is increasing.

A study published in the Academy of Management Journal by the University of Toronto shows that whether you have a good rest depends on how much autonomy you have in the activities you do during your rest.

The researchers conducted a two-week daily survey of 103 employees engaged in the administrative industry.

These daily surveys assess the extent to which employees participate in three kinds of lunch break activities (relaxation, work and socialization) and their views on the autonomy of lunch break activities. At the end of each day, employees also need to give feedback on their fatigue level that day.

The results show that:

When the autonomy of lunch break is low, it is especially tiring to carry out more complicated work and social activities, but when the autonomy is high, it is not so tiring.

If the autonomy of lunch break is low, even slight relaxation activities will aggravate people’s fatigue at the end of working days, but having higher autonomy of lunch break does not increase the benefits of deep relaxation activities during lunch break.

At least during lunch break, social activities may hinder people from recovering from fatigue-unless people feel highly autonomous in choosing social activities during lunch break.

So, the next time you face these social activities that you are not interested in at all, I hope you can firmly say, "Sorry, I need to rest now.".

Why is secretary Jin like that

02

It is necessary to fish on time, but how to do it is very important.

"Go to the toilet six times a day for ten minutes each time, and the daily working hours will be reduced by one hour", which is one of the secrets of fishing summarized by contemporary migrant workers.

Although many companies strictly guard against employees’ fishing behavior, clever workers can always think of ways.

In fact, moderate fishing itself is a reasonable and necessary behavior. A study published in Journal of Organizational Behavior by the University of Illinois in the United States shows that a short respite at work can effectively alleviate the sense of job fatigue.

In this study, researchers call the short-term breathing activity at work "Micro-break" and divide it into four types:

Relaxing activities, such as stretching, listening to music, staring out of the window, etc.

Nutritional intake activities, such as eating snacks and drinking drinks;

Social activities: for example, sending WeChat with friends and chatting with colleagues.

Cognitive activities, such as brushing mobile phones, reading books unrelated to work, and planning activities after work.

So what kind of "micro-rest" can help people recover their energy quickly?

The researchers recruited 86 Korean office workers and studied the different types of micro-rest activities they carried out on weekdays, as well as the impact of these activities on TAs.

The results show that:

Relaxation and social micro-rest activities can help people temporarily recover their fatigue at work;

The micro-rest activities of nutrient intake are not helpful to people’s recovery of fatigue;

Cognitive micro-rest activities, on the contrary, increase the fatigue at work.

Why don’t eating, brushing mobile phones and reading, which seem to be resting, help people regain their energy?

Researchers believe that when you eat at work, it may come from a habitual behavior, which will not really help you stop from working. For example, if you have a cup of milk tea at hand, you may continue to look at the computer while sipping a few mouthfuls.

Cognitive activities may require people’s energy at work, just as you need to pay attention at work, so you also need it when brushing your mobile phone.

03

Want to double the holiday effect? Don’t put off the work until after rework.

There are still more than 20 days before the Spring Festival. Has your "pre-holiday syndrome" begun to appear? That’s all for this year’s work. Let’s talk about it next year.

But if you want the energy recovered during the holidays not to disappear too quickly after rework, you’d better not put off all the work until you come back from the holidays.

A study published in the Journal of Organizational Behavior by the University of Constance shows that the sense of relaxation will disappear within one month after the holiday, and the busy working state after rework will accelerate this process.

The researchers recruited 267 participants and investigated their working status, emotional exhaustion and relaxation activities in their spare time after a two-week long vacation.

The results show that:

Holidays can restore people’s exhausted energy, but this effect will end within one month after returning from holidays;

When returning to work, more and higher job requirements will accelerate the consumption of holiday recovery; And more relaxation experience in your spare time after rework may delay this process.

Therefore, if we don’t want to be too painful after coming back from vacation, we may need to make a good work plan in advance. Because on the last day before the holiday, no one should be able to work with peace of mind (who can? )。

04

Only by "psychological separation" after work can we effectively relieve fatigue.

The normal state of many friends may be: after a day’s work, they don’t want to do anything after work. But sometimes, lying at home or brushing your mobile phone all the time, not only can’t relieve your fatigue, but you feel more tired.

So, what can we do after work to help us really recover?

Newman and other psychologists put forward the DRAMMA framework, a method to classify recovery experiences. In the DRAMMA framework, recovery experiences are divided into six categories, including:

Detachment-recovery detachment: refers to breaking away from work-related thoughts.

Relax: it means a low level of mental or physical activity and little physical or intellectual use.

Autonomy autonomy: individuals can decide their schedules and activities outside work out of their own will.

Mastery: refers to learning opportunities and challenges, resulting in a sense of accomplishment and ability outside the work field.

Meaning: a leisure experience that helps to "get something important or valuable in life"

Affiliation sense of belonging: an activity that makes people feel social support and interpersonal relationships.

Among them, "detachment", which is also called "psychological detachment" in psychology, is the most decisive factor for the quality of rest and recovery. It means that when your body finishes a day’s work, your mind also needs to leave the working state.

If you are just lying in bed, all kinds of work contents are flashing in your mind; Or you are brushing your mobile phone, but the company’s group news keeps popping up …

These situations may interrupt the state of psychological separation, make you feel that you are still working, and thus deepen the sense of fatigue.

A study published in "Organizational Psychology" by Mannheim University in Germany further found that positive thinking about work or psychological separation from work can make people get a better recovery experience.

The researchers recruited 122 college students and 159 office workers, who were randomly divided into five groups after finishing their day’s study or work tasks.

The first two groups of participants will be guided into a state of psychological separation by researchers, and the last three groups of participants will be guided by researchers to recall happy events, stress events or non-specific events they encountered in their work/study tasks today. After a certain period of time, the researchers will test the participants’ status.

The results show that:

Compared with negative or unspecific thinking work, psychological separation will make people get a better state.

Positive thinking about work is often better than psychological separation: among students/office workers, positive thinking about work can make people have a more positive state.

If you did a good job today, thinking about your work may make you happier.

But if today is just a dull or even a bad working day, forget it, because the simplest way to rest is "don’t-want to-think".

Ok, that’s it for this issue of weekly! If it helps, remember to forward it to your workmates. See you next time!
