Self-heating hot pot causes smoke sensor alarm? Experts remind us to use the heating package strictly according to the instructions.

In recent years, self-heating instant hot pot has become a best-selling food, which has both the delicious taste of hot pot and the rapidity of instant food, and is deeply loved by consumers.

However, when eating self-heating hot pot, many foodies have encountered a "strange thing". When using self-heating hot pot, an alarm is often triggered.

The netizen named @ Grandpa even caused a smoke alarm because he used a self-heating hot pot in a German hotel, and also attracted the German fire brigade and was eventually fined.

In order to find out why the self-heating hot pot will cause the alarm, the reporter bought several self-cooking products that are common in the market. On the outer packaging of a product, the reporter found the introduction of the special heating package for food and the instructions for use.

Investigation on journalists’ purchase of various products

The spontaneous combustion package contains aluminum powder.

On the outer packaging of several self-cooked products purchased by the reporter, only one of them indicates the components of the heating package, showing that the main components are calcium oxide, aluminum powder and sodium bicarbonate, and the main reason why the self-heating package can heat itself is that calcium oxide reacts with water to generate calcium hydroxide and release a lot of heat. It is worth noting that after aluminum powder reacts with water, it will produce a small amount of hydrogen.

 

Shang Zhaocong, Executive Deputy Director of National Chemical Product Safety Quality Inspection Center:

We have done a lot of experiments. After that, basically, each heating package can produce 40 liters of hydrogen at standard atmospheric pressure, so the combustion limit of hydrogen in the air is 4% to 75.6%. If the content exceeds 4%, then hydrogen will cause the risk of combustion or explosion.

According to experts, hydrogen is a combustible and reducing gas. Pure hydrogen burns quietly in the air, while impure hydrogen may explode when burning. Experts told reporters that in a relatively closed state, many people use this heating package together, which requires special attention to avoid hydrogen deflagration. In this regard, the person in charge of the manufacturer said that there was absolutely no danger, and at the same time admitted that it was indeed the trace hydrogen generated when the heating package was heated.

Aluminum powder reacts with water to produce hydrogen.

Manufacturer’s response: No danger.

Person in charge of heating package manufacturer:

It doesn’t matter. If it’s dangerous, it can’t be so hot in the market. Don’t think so dangerous, these big companies are doing it every day.

The heating package generates heat when it meets water.

Incomplete reaction will have hidden dangers.

In order to verify the safety of self-heating products, the reporter randomly opened two self-heating products for testing.

The heating bag used for the first time generates heat quickly after it meets water. Not only that, the reporter also found that putting the same heating bag into water repeatedly can also generate heat.

The reporter then cut off another reusable heating bag and threw it into the garbage bag, and then poured a small amount of water. It can be seen that after the heating bag meets the water, the garbage bag gradually expands, and the chemicals in the heating bag also boil in the bag after meeting the water. Experts said that it is a safety hazard to discard the heating package at will before it is uncertain that it will release all the heat.

He Shaopeng, National Chemical Product Safety Quality Inspection Center:

For example, if we throw it in the trash can or it rains, the rain will generate hydrogen when it enters the trash can, and then in a semi-closed environment, for example, if cigarette butts or other fire sources are introduced, there may be risks of explosion or burning.

The heating package in the closed space meets water.

Expansion and explosion of mineral water bottle

Subsequently, the reporter tested the explosion possibility of the heating package. The reporter cut open the unused heating bag and poured the gray chemicals inside into the mineral water bottle. It can be seen that these chemicals begin to boil when they meet water, and the heat generated makes the bottle body change obviously.

In fact, many self-heating products have operating instructions and safety reminders on the outer packaging, such as "Be careful of steam burns", "Don’t let children operate independently", "Only add cold water", "When your hands are wet, please don’t touch the heating bag", "If you need air transportation, please check it with luggage", which also shows that there will be great safety hazards if you use this kind of products improperly.

Experts gave five suggestions for use:

1. The vent hole on the cover of "self-heating food" should not be blocked, otherwise it will easily cause explosion;

2. Be sure to use the heating package in strict accordance with the instructions to avoid accidental injury;

3. If you use a glass dining table at home, it is best to add a heat insulation pad under the "self-heating food";

4. "Self-heating food" belongs to aviation dangerous goods, so don’t carry it or check it by plane;

5. "Self-heating food" should be kept out of children’s reach to prevent danger.

Remember Shen Yinluo, former chairman of Hubei Provincial Political Consultative Conference

  Xinhua News Agency, Wuhan, December 1st Title: A tree, a grass, a steelyard — — In memory of Shen Yinluo, former chairman of Hubei Provincial Political Consultative Conference (I)

  Xinhua News Agency reporter Tan Yuanbin

  On February 20th this year, Shen Yinluo, former chairman of Hubei Provincial Political Consultative Conference, died in Wuhan due to illness at the age of 96. From setting foot on the battlefield of anti-Japanese national salvation, to leading WISCO to create brilliance, and then to taking the leadership position in Hubei Province, I was unwilling to publicize my Shen Yinluo all my life, but after my death, it caused strong repercussions in Jingchu.

  "He doesn’t care about his family, but only knows how to work." Shen Yinluo’s widow Cao Junmin said. In the living room of Shenyang, there are two bottles of earth under the portrait of Shen Yinluo, which were brought back by Shen Yinluo’s niece from Yan ‘an, Shaanxi and Wuxian, Jiangsu. One bottle is "holy earth" and the other is "native land".

  Red gene, green heritage. Shen Yinluo struggled for the cause of the party and the people all his life, and was deeply cherished and commemorated by the broad masses of cadres and people, leaving a valuable spiritual wealth. Hubei Provincial Party Committee is carrying out learning activities from Shen Yinluo among cadres in party member.

  He is like a tree, "insisting that the green hills will not relax."

  In 1937, 17-year-old Shen Yinluo left his hometown and set foot on the battlefield of resisting Japan and saving the nation. He arrived in Yan ‘an in 1938 and joined the Communist Party of China (CPC) in the same year. During his stay in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, he participated in the "Hundred Regiments War"; During the War of Liberation, he participated in the "Central Plains Breakthrough".

  After the founding of New China, Shen Yinluo successively held leadership positions in the 41st Army of the People’s Liberation Army and Wuhan Iron and Steel Company, and later held important leadership positions in Hubei Provincial Committee and Hubei Provincial Political Consultative Conference.

  From March 1961 to October 1982, Shen Yinluo worked in WISCO for 21 years and 7 months, and served as deputy manager and manager, deputy director and director of the company’s revolutionary Committee, second secretary and manager of the company’s party Committee, and first secretary of the party Committee. When I first arrived in WISCO, it coincided with three years of natural disasters. The Soviet Union terminated aid construction and withdrew experts, and a large number of projects in WISCO stopped construction and production. Shen Yinluo was ordered by the crisis to bring the army’s good tradition and style into WISCO and lead WISCO on the right track.

  Cao Junmin still remembers that during the Cultural Revolution, although Shen Yinluo was repeatedly hit, he never complained in front of his family. At that time, he put forward a slogan: "WISCO can’t be chaotic, the stove can’t be turned off, and production can’t stop."

  It is Shen Yinluo’s greatest contribution to WISCO to implement the central government’s decision to deploy and introduce a 1.7-meter rolling mill. Previously, the quality of steel produced in China was not high, which was called "noodles" and "belts". High-end products such as strip steel, sheet steel and silicon steel are totally dependent on imports, which not only costs a lot of foreign exchange, but also is blocked by developed countries.

  As the general representative of Chinese technical negotiation, Shen Yinluo spared no effort to overcome all difficulties and won the contract. Subsequently, as the main leader of the engineering headquarters, he led a hundred thousand construction troops to participate in the battle.

  At the end of 1981, the 1.7-meter rolling mill project passed the national acceptance and was officially put into production. It has changed the structure of steel products in China and become a model for China to introduce and digest international advanced technology.

  During his tenure as an important leader of the Hubei Provincial Party Committee and the Hubei Provincial Political Consultative Conference, Shen Yinluo was strict with himself and worked hard for the cause of the party and the people. After retiring, Shen Yinluo always cares about the development of Hubei, actively exerts the waste heat, and makes suggestions. The day before his death, his eyesight was severely impaired, and he asked his secretary to read him the new Central Document No.1.

  It is the lofty ideals and beliefs of communist party people that support Shen Yinluo. "In Shen Lao, we have seen the political quality of a party member cadre with firm belief and infinite loyalty to the party." Liu Yanhong, deputy director of the Organization Department of Hubei Provincial Party Committee and director of the Bureau of Retired Veteran Cadres, said.

  He is like a grass, rooted in the soil of the people.

  "Come on, Yin Shi, I’ll give you some rice!" For more than 40 years, Chen Yinshi, an associate professor at the Party School of Wuhan Iron and Steel Company, still remembers this call. That year, as an ordinary young worker, he had a meeting with a group of WISCO personnel such as Shen Yinluo in Beijing. At lunch, everyone crowded around a big round table for dinner, with Chen Yinshi sitting in the corner and Shen Yinluo sitting opposite him. "I was just about to get up and add rice. Manager Shen stood up and naturally reached for the bowl."

  Keeping close contact with the masses, Shen Yinluo persisted all his life. Wang Guolian, a retired cadre of WISCO, said that Shen Lao’s memory is very good. He can remember the names of great families after one or two contacts, and the workers are willing to tell him anything.

  A bicycle, a yellow military satchel, a notebook and a pen, Shen Yinluo’s footprints are all over Shili Steel City and Baili Mine of WISCO. He ate, lived and worked with the workers for several months, jumping into slag pits, moving ore, eating cold meals, and working hard and dirty.

  When he goes to factories and mines to check production, he always goes to the canteen to have a look, telling the logistics staff to arrange the food, saying, "There is steel in the food, and the workers can only concentrate on refining steel when they are full."

  After retiring, he went deep into grassroots research, including running in the countryside for 102 days in 2002, reaching the junction of Hubei and Shaanxi as far as possible.

  Putting the masses in a prominent position, Shen Yinluo is consistent. Last year, Shen Yinluo, as a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War, won the medal for the 70th anniversary of the victory of China people’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and a 5000-yuan solatium. He immediately entrusted the Bureau of Retired Veteran Cadres of Hubei Provincial Party Committee to transfer solatium to the needy people in the old revolutionary base areas. In the end, the solatium was divided into two parts, which were sent to Min Xinzhou and Zhao Zhiliang, martyrs of the Red Army in Hong ‘an County, Huanggang City, Hubei Province.

  "He left before he met the benefactor!" Min Xinzhou said. Min Xinzhou fell from the sky last year, and his spine was injured, so he couldn’t work. His lover suffered from mental illness and couldn’t take care of himself. "Shen Lao’s financial assistance is to help us tide over the difficulties."

  When the staff of the Bureau of Retired Veteran Cadres of Hubei Provincial Party Committee helped to sort out Shen Yinluo’s relics, they found 106 donation receipts in an envelope, many of which were donated in the name of Cao Junmin, with a total amount of more than 140,000 yuan, but the donations without receipts were unknown.

  "Shen Lao always has the masses in his heart." Wang Shengtie, former chairman of the Hubei Provincial Political Consultative Conference, who was in charge of agricultural work in the province, said that seeing good experiences in newspapers and periodicals involved the interests of farmers. Mr. Shen wrote them in strokes and sent them to him by letter. "I have worked in the provincial government, provincial party Committee and provincial political consultative conference for 11 years, and I received a publication sent by Shen Lao at least once a month on average."

  He is like a steelyard, and he has a good style of seeking truth and being pragmatic.

  "On September 5, at 6: 40 in the morning, I visited the vegetable wholesale and retail markets and found that the price difference between wholesale and retail was 50% to 100%. The wholesale price of Chinese cabbage is 0.20 yuan/kg and the retail price is 0.40 yuan/kg; Chili pepper wholesale 0.80 yuan/kg, retail after classification 1.6 yuan/kg; The retail price of eggplant is 1.50 yuan/kg. Exotic vegetables come from Henan. " This is a note on people’s feelings written by Shen Yinluo in 1996, when he retired.

  Touching the truth, telling the truth, making practical moves and seeking practical results, Shen Yinluo opposes formalism and emphasizes seeking truth and being pragmatic. Chen Ming, his last secretary, said that Shen Lao was most disgusted with cadres who spoke Mandarin but failed to take practical actions.

  At the end of the 20th century, Hubei Province once took over the farm management right, which triggered a series of problems such as farmers’ petition, and the farm directors, local leaders and ordinary people were very anxious. At that time, Shen Yinluo, who was over 80 years old, conducted research on this and spent more than 120 days traveling to all provincial state-owned farms in the province.

  After the investigation, he wrote a report to the Hubei Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government. After in-depth study, the Hubei Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government re-delegated the farm management right and mobilized the local enthusiasm.

  "Shen Lao knows all about some major construction at the grassroots level, the planning in the province, the strategic layout of the country, and the resource characteristics of various cities and States. Even the places he visited decades ago are clear to him." Chen Ming said.

  Shen Yinluo gave suggestions to the Hubei Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government. If you are not sure, you will definitely consult relevant experts and cadres first to find out the situation. Every time he goes out for research, he takes notes carefully.

  "He is such a person who is strict with himself with the standards of Communist party member everywhere." Cao Junmin said.

Porsche cayenne 2021 offer

The starting price of the 2021 Porsche Cayenne is RMB 2.43 million, and the guide price of the highly anticipated TURBO GT model is RMB 2.48 million. The bare car price of this model is enough to attract people’s attention.

In terms of power performance, despite the similarities with Audi Q, the Cayenne is equipped with a 6-cylinder V6 engine with an output of 290 HP and a 6-speed automatic manual transmission with a top speed of 227 kilometers per hour. However, the fuel consumption is slightly high, which is 19 liters /100 kilometers.

The charm of Cayenne is not limited to performance, and its luxurious temperament is hard to ignore. As an SUV, its design is unforgettable and embodies the unparalleled luxury style of Porsche brand. However, for consumers who pursue cost performance, Cayenne has many optional accessories, such as lane keeping system, which costs an extra 7,200 yuan, and even the front door replacement price is expensive, about 60,000 yuan.

If you are pursuing environmental protection, the Porsche Cayenne plug-in hybrid version Cayenne SE-Hybrid is also available. This model uses green brake calipers and Michelin tires with low rolling resistance, giving drivers a greener choice.

保时捷卡宴

To sum up, the Porsche Cayenne is undoubtedly a desirable luxury SUV, but its high price and optional cost also reflect the brand positioning. If you are a loyal fan of Porsche or have endless pursuit of luxury experience, Cayenne is undoubtedly your ideal choice.

News Person: "Gold Crocodile" Zhang Yong














  Up to now, the transaction amount involved exceeds 60 billion yuan (the contract transaction amount after the margin is leveraged), involving tens of thousands of people, and the initiator Zhang Yong was finally formally prosecuted by the procuratorate.
  On the 20th, relevant persons of Shangcheng District Procuratorate in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province confirmed that the review of Century Gold and Zhang Yong and others illegally operating gold futures by Shangcheng District Procuratorate had ended. "Zhang Yong was prosecuted for the crime of suspected illegal business operation and capital evasion, and on the 16th, Century Gold was also accused of the crime of illegal business operation." The Shangcheng District Procuratorate said that Zhang Yong’s case will be heard by the local court at a later date.

[detailed]















  Zhejiang Century Gold Company began to illegally operate gold futures in July 2005 under the decision of the legal representative Zhang Yong. Zhang Yong instructed Wang Jianping, an employee of his company, to design and develop an online gold futures trading system, and through vigorous publicity, attracted a large number of customers from all over the country to speculate on gold futures. The gold speculation business is conducted through the company’s network system, which is not in line with the international gold market, but only roughly according to the floating quotation of the international real-time gold price. [detailed]
















   As early as November-December, 2006, Shangcheng Public Security Bureau received feedback from more than 30 people in the province. They said that Century Gold Company, on the 8th floor of a building in Zhonghe Middle Road, set up an online gold electronic trading platform privately in June, 2005 in order to seek illegal benefits, and set up rules of the game with reference to the basic characteristics of futures business such as margin system, capital amplification leverage mechanism and forced liquidation, and extensively recruited customers to conduct online gold futures trading, which caused many people huge losses. [detailed]
















  On January 12, 2007, Shangcheng Public Security Bureau officially accepted the case. The first question before the police is to characterize this case. "What is the nature of this behavior?" On January 31, 2007, Zhejiang Securities Regulatory Bureau of the State Securities Regulatory Commission, Hangzhou Central Sub-branch of the People’s Bank of China and other relevant departments received relevant reports on the petition of Shangcheng Public Security Bureau. On February 13th, Zhejiang Securities Regulatory Bureau of the State Securities Regulatory Commission officially replied that the behavior of Century Gold Co., Ltd. could not be recognized as gold futures trading. [detailed]





















  After a large number of investigations, it was found that Century Gold Company set up a "gold product sales and repurchase (reverse repurchase) system" platform with the nature of illegal futures on the Internet without obtaining the qualification of futures operation, but this is actually a closed inner market, in which Century Gold Company plays multiple market roles, and all the funds bought and sold by everyone are inside this system.
  The company collects trading commissions in various names and devours a lot of customers’ funds through forced liquidation. [detailed]









  Guo is over 60 years old this year. After retirement, he returned to Zhuji from Beijing to support the elderly. Two years ago, he couldn’t resist the temptation of "making a steady profit without losing money, making a lot of money easily" and was pulled into the century gold by the salesman and became a "gold speculator".
  At the beginning, Guo didn’t "play" much, and invested more than 100,000 yuan, but it soon disappeared. At the suggestion of "investment consultant", he increased the deposit again and again, and later even sold the house for the aged, but the result of such "investment" was to lose nearly 2.4 million.
[detailed]
















  As for the investigation and punishment of "Century Gold" being late, it is not certain that there are human factors, but the absence of system supervision is certain. Because after the public security department submitted the materials to the Zhejiang Banking Regulatory Bureau, it was difficult for even the banking regulatory bureau to determine whether it was illegal. [detailed]
















  "He is an extremely smart person, a typical high IQ crime." Police officer Gu said.
  There are three lawyers employed by Zhang Yong. The proposed Customer Agreement has three samples, one of which is more detailed than the other.
Zhang Yong changed the "deposit" in the original agreement to "deposit" after consulting a lawyer; Change "forced liquidation" to "default disposal"; He also changed the "commission" into "overnight fee" and "network usage fee" in order to cover up the essence of his futures business. Over the years, Zhang Yong has spent four or five million yuan on consulting fees for lawyers alone.

[detailed]















  Ironically, in late September, 2006, Zhang Yong said confidently and calmly to the media: "What we are doing is something that no one has ever done before, which must be guaranteed by a high sense of social responsibility and good professional quality. The public interest is greater than everything else. " [detailed]

  In the summer of 1984, at the age of 19, Zhang Yong was admitted to Hangzhou University to study journalism. After graduation, he joined the army.

  After retiring in 1990, Zhang Yong was assigned to the then Hangzhou Refinery as a security officer. However, he was not satisfied with this boring job, so he went into business.

Ministry of Finance: Accelerate the budget expenditure and the issuance of local government bonds in the second half of the year.

  CCTV News:According to the website of the Ministry of Finance, 2021 is the first year to implement the 14th Five-Year Plan and start a new journey of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way. In the first half of the year, 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, continued to consolidate and expand the achievements of epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, solidly carried out the "six guarantees" work, fully implemented the "six guarantees" task, and accurately implemented macroeconomic policies.

  (1) Maintain moderate expenditure intensity and enhance financial sustainability. This year, deficit ratio is arranged at around 3.2%, which is lower than last year. The deficit scale is 3.57 trillion yuan, which is 190 billion yuan lower than that in 2020. We will coordinate the needs of macro-control and guard against financial risks, improve the inter-cycle adjustment mechanism, effectively guarantee the key tasks set by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, and leave policy space for dealing with new risk challenges in the future. The national general public budget expenditure exceeded 25 trillion yuan, an increase of 1.8%, which enhanced the financial security of major national strategic tasks and promoted the economic operation to remain in a reasonable range. The arrangement of new special bonds was 3.65 trillion yuan, a decrease of 100 billion yuan over the previous year, and local government debt risks were actively prevented. Special anti-epidemic bonds will no longer be issued, and expenditures on infrastructure construction such as local public health and basic livelihood will be guaranteed through normal channels.

  (2) Continue to reduce taxes and fees to stimulate the vitality of market players. We will continue to implement the institutional tax reduction policy, extend the implementation period of some phased policies such as value-added tax concessions for small-scale taxpayers, and implement new structural tax reduction measures. Highlight the strengthening of tax incentives for small and micro enterprises, while continuing to implement policies such as inclusive tax reduction for small and micro enterprises, further increase tax relief for small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households, vigorously support manufacturing and technological innovation, and enhance the vitality and development potential of enterprises. It is estimated that the new burden reduction for market players will exceed 700 billion yuan throughout the year.

  (3) establish a normalized direct mechanism to improve the efficiency of financial funds. Improve the management system of direct funds, expand the scope of direct funds, and bring 27 transfer payments into the direct scope as a whole, with a total amount of funds reaching 2.8 trillion yuan, an increase of 1.1 trillion yuan over the previous year. Improve the monitoring system of direct funds, keep a close eye on the distribution, disbursement and use of direct funds, and further improve the performance of financial funds.

At the same time, speed up the establishment of an all-round and full-coverage budget performance management system, promote the substantive embedding of performance management into the budget management process, strengthen the application of performance results, and make good use of limited financial funds.

  (4) Increase the transfer payment and firmly grasp the bottom line of "three guarantees". In the case of limited actual financial resources, the central government arranged 8,337 billion yuan of transfer payments to local governments this year, including 7,501.8 billion yuan of general transfer payments, an increase of 7.8%, which was significantly higher than last year. Increase the sinking of financial resources, the central financial transfer payment funds to the central and western regions and difficult areas, support the normal operation of local areas, especially difficult areas, as well as the provision of public services and the development of people’s livelihood, and enhance the local "three guarantees" guarantee capacity.

  (5) Vigorously support scientific and technological innovation and accelerate the development of the modern industrial system. Efforts will be made to improve the quality and efficiency of economic development and support the accelerated cultivation of a complete domestic demand system. Vigorously promote scientific and technological innovation, strengthen investment in basic research, promote key core technology research, support the improvement of independent innovation capability, accelerate the development of modern industrial system, and promote the modernization level of industrial chain and supply chain. Support the development of foreign investment and foreign trade.

  (6) Do our best and do what we can to ensure and improve people’s livelihood. According to the financial situation and actual needs, reasonably determine the people’s livelihood policy and promote the management of people’s livelihood expenditure list. Establish and improve the incentive and restraint mechanism to improve the scientific management of people’s livelihood expenditure funds. Improve the redistribution mechanism and strengthen the bottom-up protection for low-income groups. Do everything possible to increase the scale of transfer payments from the central government to local governments, and tilt to financially difficult areas and underdeveloped areas to enhance the ability to protect basic people’s livelihood.

  (seven) adhere to the government’s tight life, and further optimize the structure of fiscal expenditure. We will strictly control the budget expenditure, strictly examine the new fiscal expenditure, vigorously reduce or cancel inefficient and ineffective expenditure, and deeply tap the potential of saving expenditure. The central government took the lead in living a tight life, further drastically reduced non-urgent and non-rigid expenditures, further reduced general expenditures, and freed up more valuable financial resources to improve basic people’s livelihood and support the development of market players.

  In the next step, the Ministry of Finance will resolutely implement the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, adhere to the general tone of striving for progress while maintaining stability, take the promotion of high-quality development as the theme, take the deepening of supply-side structural reform as the main line, take reform and innovation as the fundamental driving force, and take meeting the people’s growing needs for a better life as the fundamental purpose, accurately implement macro policies, enhance the effectiveness of proactive fiscal policies, and speed up the budget expenditure and the issuance of local government bonds in the second half of the year. Focus on supporting the real economy and promoting employment, further stimulate the dynamic vitality of market players, at the same time improve the inter-cyclical adjustment mechanism, maintain the continuity, stability and sustainability of macroeconomic policies, make overall plans for the convergence of fiscal policies this year and next, deal with possible cyclical risks, consolidate the stable and positive economic situation, and strive to complete the main objectives and tasks of economic and social development throughout the year.

  First, the overall implementation of the budget is good, and the overall support capacity is continuously enhanced.

  In the first half of the year, the national economy was steadily strengthened and improved. On this basis, fiscal revenue showed a recovery growth, expenditures in key areas such as people’s livelihood were strongly guaranteed, and budget implementation was generally good.

Take vocational skills training as a key measure to alleviate structural employment contradictions, and guide all localities to speed up the use of vocational skills upgrading action funds.

  Second, the policy of aiding enterprises to stabilize their posts continued to exert strength. We will continue to implement the policy of stable return of inclusive unemployment insurance. In the first half of the year, we distributed unemployment insurance to 375,000 enterprises with 9.52 billion yuan of stable return funds, benefiting 9.429 million employees. We will continue to implement the policy of expanding the scope of employment by replacing training with industry, and support small and medium-sized enterprises to absorb the employment of key groups.

  Third, the action of improving vocational skills has been steadily advanced. Cooperate with relevant departments to formulate and improve relevant policies and measures for vocational skills training, adjust the subsidy standards for vocational skills training, appropriately expand the coverage of subsidies for vocational skills upgrading actions, and reasonably relax the conditions for applying for subsidies. We will implement the new apprenticeship system for enterprises with China characteristics, and give vocational training subsidies to enterprises that carry out apprenticeship training according to regulations. For the poverty-stricken population, people with employment difficulties, and zero-employment family members who participate in vocational training, living expenses (including transportation expenses) will be subsidized according to regulations during the training period.

  Fourth, the employment support system for key groups continued to improve. Do a solid job in the employment of key groups such as college graduates, migrant workers and retired military personnel.

We will issue 120.485 billion yuan of subsidy funds and continue to implement the subsidy policy for farmland fertility protection. Arrange a one-time subsidy of 20 billion yuan for actual grain farmers to mobilize their enthusiasm. The central government allocated 17.98 billion yuan to local grain risk funds to support local grain reserves and maintain the stability of the grain market. Promote the expansion and bidding of agricultural insurance. We will expand the scope of full cost insurance and planting income insurance for three major grain crops: rice, wheat and corn, and gradually provide insurance coverage covering the full cost of agricultural production or planting income for all farmers in 500 major grain-producing counties in 13 major grain-producing provinces.

  Second, the energy security capacity continued to improve. Adjust and improve the support policies for new energy vehicles. Adhere to the gradual subsidy retreat. In 2021, the subsidy standard for new energy vehicles will retreat by 20% on the basis of 2020, and the technical index system and technical requirements threshold will remain generally stable. Optimize the subsidy policy for renewable energy power generation, and issue a budget of 89 billion yuan for additional subsidies for renewable energy electricity prices to support renewable energy power generation such as photovoltaic and wind power. Accelerate the announcement of the subsidy list to confirm the right, and solve the financing problem of renewable energy power generation enterprises. From 2021, new centralized photovoltaic power stations, industrial and commercial distributed photovoltaic projects and onshore wind power projects will be added to realize cheap internet access, which will enter a new stage of large-scale popularization and application. Strengthen illegal supervision, clarify the corresponding suspension and reduction of subsidy funds for biomass power generation projects with substandard emissions, and force enterprises to strengthen emission control, achieve emission standards, and ensure the safety and effectiveness of subsidy funds.

Launch a special plan for patent transformation to meet the technical needs of SMEs and help them innovate and develop.

  (6) Increase the scale of transfer payments from the central government to local governments, and firmly grasp the bottom line of "three guarantees" at the grassroots level.

  First, the central government has further increased the scale of transfer payments to local governments. In the case of limited actual new financial resources, we will increase the scale of local transfer payments by reducing the level and adjusting the structure. In 2021, the central government transferred 8,337 billion yuan to local governments, a slight increase over 2020. General transfer payments increased by 7.8%, of which the transfer payments of common financial affairs increased by 6.1% and other general transfer payments increased by 9.2%, which was significantly higher than last year.

Up to now, 1,852.7 billion yuan of balanced transfer payments have been issued, and all the county-level basic financial security mechanism award funds have been issued. Judging from the monitoring situation in the first half of the year, the actual available financial resources in all counties and districts can guarantee the national standard "three guarantees" demand, and the guarantee situation is better than that in the same period of last year.

  The third is to strengthen the supervision and guidance of local "three guarantees" work. From January this year, we will carry out monthly monitoring of local financial operations, focusing on strengthening local "three guarantees" monitoring, and urge and guide local verification and resolution of problems and risks found in monitoring at the first time. At the same time, constantly improve the monitoring system to ensure accurate and timely collection and analysis of various monitoring data, and strive to prevent and resolve the "three guarantees" risks.

  Third, optimize and implement the tax reduction and fee reduction policy, and effectively stimulate the vitality of market players.

  In accordance with the spirit of the Central Economic Work Conference and the deployment requirements of the government work report, we will optimize and implement the policy of tax reduction and fee reduction, comprehensively consider the needs of fiscal sustainability and the implementation of the policy of helping enterprises to bail out, implement relevant policies of tax reduction, resolutely reduce the tax reduction in place, and reduce the cost of enterprises in the real economy, optimize the development environment of enterprises, and stimulate the vitality of market players. In 2021, it is estimated that the annual tax reduction and fee reduction will exceed 700 billion yuan.

  (1) The institutional tax reduction and fee reduction policy will continue to be implemented.

  We will continue to implement institutional tax reduction policies such as reducing the value-added tax rate, retaining the value-added tax refund, and special additional deduction of personal income tax, and implement institutional fee reduction policies such as reducing the basic old-age insurance rate for employees, and continue to release the policy superposition effect.

  In 2020, the phased tax reduction and fee reduction policy to deal with the epidemic will be introduced, and the classification will be adjusted and orderly withdrawn. Extend the implementation period of policies such as reducing value-added tax for small-scale taxpayers introduced during the epidemic, and maintain the necessary support for economic recovery. Temporary and emergency policies involving epidemic prevention and control, supply and supply shall be stopped after expiration. Considering the demands of enterprises, the social security benefits of the insured and the ability of fund support, we will resume the normal collection of social insurance premiums in 2021, and extend the policy period of reducing unemployment and work-related injury insurance rates in stages to April 30, 2022. In 2021, the upper and lower limits of the social insurance payment base will return to normal in principle, and the provinces with real difficulties can make a two-year transition.

  (3) The tax incentives for small and micro enterprises have been strengthened.

  While implementing the inclusive tax reduction and fee reduction policy for small and micro enterprises, we will further increase the tax reduction and exemption for small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households. From January 1 this year, the annual taxable income of small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households will be reduced by half on the basis of the current preferential policies; From April 1st, the threshold of value-added tax for small-scale taxpayers will be raised from 100,000 yuan to 150,000 yuan in monthly sales.

  (five) resolutely prevent arbitrary charges, fines and levies.

  Continue to clean up the standard fee fund, cancel the port construction fee, and lower the collection standard of airline civil aviation development fund. Comprehensively investigate the government funds and administrative fees related to epidemic prevention and control at various ports in various regions since 2020, intensify the rectification of illegal fees charged by various enterprises, seriously investigate and deal with problems such as setting up fees without authorization, raising collection standards, expanding the scope of collection, and arbitrarily apportioning, strictly control the unreasonable growth of non-tax revenue, and prevent weakening the dividend of tax reduction and fee reduction policy.

  In the first half of the year, with the joint efforts of all parties, tax reduction and fee reduction measures were effectively implemented, which better helped enterprises to bail out their development. The vitality of market entities has been effectively enhanced, and the number of newly established tax-related market entities has reached 6.243 million, an increase of 27.3% compared with 2020 and 22.8% compared with 2019. The benefits of enterprises have generally improved, and profits have increased significantly.

Market participants’ confidence in future economic growth continues to improve. In June, the purchasing managers’ index (PMI) of manufacturing industry was 50.9%, which has been in the boom zone for 16 consecutive months.

  Fourth, the direct mechanism of financial funds is normalized, and financial funds benefit enterprises and the people more accurately and efficiently.

  Seriously sum up the effective experience of the direct access mechanism in 2020, normalize the implementation of the direct access mechanism of financial funds, expand the scope of direct access funds, optimize the distribution process, and strictly supervise funds. In the first half of the year, the normalized direct access mechanism was promoted in an orderly manner, and the implementation was good. The funds quickly reached the grassroots and units, and the expenditures in key areas were effectively guaranteed, which promoted the accurate implementation of the policy of benefiting enterprises and benefiting the people.

  (1) The scale of direct funds exceeded 2.8 trillion yuan, and the implementation was generally good.

  The first is to expand the scope of funds. The scope of funds was adjusted from new funds to stock funds, and 27 transfer payments were included in the direct scope as a whole. The total amount of funds reached 2.8 trillion yuan, an increase of 1.1 trillion yuan over the previous year, and the central government’s livelihood subsidy funds were basically covered.

  The second is to improve the institutional system. A series of documents such as the Notice of the Ministry of Finance on Doing a Good Job in the Direct Mechanism of Financial Funds in 2021 were issued, and an institutional system covering the whole process of fund allocation, disbursement, use and supervision was established. We will continue to implement measures such as filing audit and beneficiary real-name registration system, effectively meet the supply and demand of funds, "precise drip irrigation", and further improve the scientific and normative management of funds.

  The third is to optimize the distribution process. Considering the local actual situation, the allocation of funds is adjusted from all the arrangements to cities and counties to the needs of provincial overall planning, and the ability of provincial overall planning is moderately enhanced. According to the current financial system, the main body of project implementation, the beneficiaries of funds, etc., the local government can reasonably determine the budget allocation plan according to the fund management measures, and tilt the incremental funds to the grassroots level of cities and counties. By issuing in advance, pre-notification of indicators and other means, the local operation time will be increased from one week last year to less than 30 days stipulated in the budget law, leaving time for local governments to formulate detailed plans, prepare projects and fulfill the approval procedures.

  By the end of June, the direct funds from the central government had been allocated 2.59 trillion yuan, accounting for 92.5% of the total. All the qualified funds had been allocated, and the outstanding funds were mainly the actual settlement funds, which was released earlier than last year. Local finance has allocated 2.506 trillion yuan to fund users, accounting for 96.8% of the funds allocated by the central government. Expenditure in various regions reached 1.635 trillion yuan, with the expenditure progress reaching 63.1%. From the level of expenditure, the provincial expenditure was 0.614 trillion yuan, accounting for 37.5%; The expenditure of cities and counties at the grass-roots level was 1.021 trillion yuan, accounting for 62.5%, which reflected the institutional arrangement of the normalized direct mechanism of "allocating and using funds according to the facts and inclining to the grass-roots level incrementally".

  (two) strict supervision of funds, the use of financial funds more standardized and efficient.

  First, upgrade the direct fund monitoring system, expand from data tracking to full-process management, comprehensively cover the indicator flow, cash flow and information flow, realize the full chain tracking and monitoring of funds from the source to the end, and synchronize the release, use and supervision of funds to ensure that the source of funds is clear, the flow direction is clear, the accounts can be checked and the accounts are consistent, further improving the standardization and effectiveness of direct fund distribution and use.

  The second is to strengthen collaborative supervision. According to the expansion of direct funds, we will increase the member units of the inter-ministerial special working mechanism and improve the multi-departmental collaborative linkage working mechanism. Strengthen data information sharing, fully open monitoring system data to auditing, human resources and social security, civil affairs and other departments, strengthen the coordination of various departments in fund supervision, find problems in the implementation process in time, and ensure that funds are used in cutting-edge and critical places. Compacting the responsibilities of local governments at all levels, strengthening the supervision of the use of funds, improving the efficiency of the use of funds, and preventing funds from being misappropriated and deposited idle.

  The third is to intensify the investigation and punishment of violations. Give full play to the local supervision advantages of the local supervision bureaus of the Ministry of Finance and conduct on-site verification of major doubtful issues. Establish and improve the notification and interview system for major issues, and seriously investigate the responsibility of those who violate laws and regulations. We will not tolerate any illegal acts such as false reporting, impersonation, interception and misappropriation, and we will find them together, investigate them together and hold them accountable together.

  (3) Direct funds have achieved remarkable results, and local governments and market players have benefited significantly.

  All localities resolutely implemented the spirit of the the State Council executive meeting and the requirements of the central government’s direct fund management policy, focused on optimizing the expenditure structure, highlighting the key points in the use of direct funds, promoting the flow of funds to the directions and fields that the masses hope and enterprises expect, effectively offsetting the impact of some phased policies, providing timely and powerful financial support for local governments to implement the "six guarantees" task, especially to ensure residents’ employment, market players, basic people’s livelihood and grass-roots wages and operations, and laying a solid foundation for the completion of this year’s major economic and social development goals. According to incomplete statistics, more than 70% of the total expenditure of direct funds in the first half of the year was used for local pension, compulsory education, basic medical care, basic housing and other basic livelihood aspects. In terms of supporting the insurance market players, the accumulated expenditure of relevant funds of Hui enterprises exceeded 270 billion yuan, benefiting nearly 580,000 market players of various types.

  Five, improve the government debt financing mechanism, government debt management has been continuously strengthened.

  Insist on improving the government debt management mechanism, open the "front door" and strictly block the "back door", earnestly prevent and resolve the local government debt risks, and effectively play the role of the government in regulating debt to promote the smooth operation of the macro economy.

  (1) The task of issuing treasury bonds was successfully completed.

  According to the decision of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, no special anti-epidemic bonds will be issued in 2021. The Ministry of Finance made overall plans for the issuance of government bonds, reasonably controlled the scale and pace of issuance of government bonds (referring to domestic debts, the same below), successfully completed the issuance of government bonds in the first half of 2021, and the market operation was generally stable. In the first half of the year, 2,816.9 billion yuan of treasury bonds were actually issued, up by 10.8% year-on-year, of which 2,688.2 billion yuan was issued by book-entry treasury bonds and 128.7 billion yuan was issued by savings bonds, providing a solid guarantee for meeting the financing needs of the central government.

  (2) The scale of local government special bonds was moderately reduced.

  In view of the large scale of special bonds issued in 2020, the policy effect will continue to be released in 2021. This year, the special debt limit for local governments will be 3.65 trillion yuan, a decrease of 100 billion yuan from the previous year. Considering the needs of cross-cycle policy design and adjustment, combined with the project preparation, scientifically arrange the release and issuance rhythm of new special bond quotas and maintain support for key projects. In the first half of the year, a total of 1,014.3 billion yuan of special bonds were issued. After preliminary summary, about half of the new special bonds are invested in major projects in transportation infrastructure, municipal and industrial parks; About 30% invested in affordable housing projects and major projects in social undertakings such as health, education, old-age care and cultural tourism; About 20% invested in major projects in the fields of agriculture, forestry, water conservancy, energy, urban and rural cold chain logistics, which better guaranteed local reasonable financing needs, accelerated the filling of shortcomings in people’s livelihood areas such as health care, and better served the national strategy.

  (3) The government’s debt financing mechanism has been continuously improved.

  First, continuously improve the issuance mechanism of national debt.

We will optimize the bidding and issuance rules of book-entry treasury bonds and improve the renewal mechanism of book-entry treasury bonds. Actively and steadily carry out the savings bonds (electronic) pilot of mobile banking sales, and broaden the sales channels in savings bonds.

  The second is to reasonably determine the new debt limit. The National People’s Congress is requested to approve the new local government debt limit of 4.47 trillion yuan in 2021, a decrease of 260 billion yuan compared with the previous year. While maintaining active fiscal policy support and basically stable macro leverage ratio, it will leave policy space for coping with new risk challenges in the future.

  The third is to improve local government debt projects and fund management mechanisms. According to the principle of "funds follow the project", do a good job in project reserve and preliminary preparation. Use information technology to implement penetrating supervision of special bond projects and strengthen the full-cycle and normalized risk monitoring of the projects. We will issue performance management measures for special bond funds, conduct "double monitoring" on the budget implementation progress and performance target implementation of special bond funds, suspend or stop funding for projects that seriously deviate from performance targets, and allow provincial governments to adjust their use in a timely manner according to procedures for projects that are difficult to build and implement in a short period of time due to insufficient preparation to ensure that legal bonds do not have any risks. Standardize the management of local government bond information disclosure platform and further promote the disclosure of local government debt information.

  The fourth is to further improve the issuance of local government bonds. Continue to take the initiative to act as an agent for local bond issuance operations to ensure efficient and smooth financing of local bond issuance during the epidemic.

We will fully open the counter issuance of local government bonds, encourage all localities to reasonably increase the frequency and scale of issuance, and guide seven provinces including Hebei and Sichuan to issue 4.36 billion yuan of local government bonds through the counters of commercial banks.

  Fifth, the work of resolving the hidden debt risk of local governments should be done. Comprehensively strengthen the demonstration of project financial affordability and budget review, and all the financial expenditures are included in the budget management according to law.

LYRIQ sharp song opens the big deal, Cadillac insists on not making excessive commitments.

On June 6th, Lyriq Ruige, the first pure electric vehicle under the Cadillac brand of SAIC-GM, officially opened.

According to reports, a total of three models are sold this time, namely, the rear-drive long-life luxury version, the rear-drive long-life premium version and the four-wheel drive high-performance premium version, with a price range of 439,700-479,700 yuan.

As the pioneering work of Cadillac’s electric transformation, Cadillac has always emphasized that LYRIQ Ruige is a good car that breaks through itself and creates with users. However, an interesting phenomenon is that many innovative electric vehicles in this market often encounter concentrated doubts from potential car owners at the crucial point where they really need to be finalized and delivered. Cadillac believes that products really need to break through innovation, but enterprises should keep the basics of buying and selling.

"Cadillac does not make excessive commitments, nor will it give consumers corresponding active compensation after failing to make previous commitments due to some force majeure." On June 6th, Pan Mengmeng, head of new energy strategy department of SAIC-GM, told the The Paper reporter.

Affected by the epidemic in Shanghai, the delivery time of LYRIQ sharp song was a little later than expected. According to the official, LYRIQ Ruige will be delivered to users from late September to early October this year. The first delivery models are the rear-drive long-life luxury version and the rear-drive long-life premium version, and the delivery time of the four-wheel drive version will be longer, which is expected to start at the end of the year.

Pan Mengmeng said that in order to give consumers mature products, some software functions of LYRIQ Ruige still need some verification time. If the products finally delivered to consumers are not finished products, Cadillac’s solution is to take the initiative to introduce some compensation rights. For example, "A new generation of Super Cruise and 360-degree high-definition panoramic images and related functions may not be opened at the time of delivery". In order to compensate for the lack of user experience, Cadillac will provide five-year free maintenance for some users who can’t use these two functions when they get the car. The value rights and interests are about 9,000 yuan.

In addition to active compensation, the final pricing of Cadillac LYRIQ is somewhat unexpected. In order to resist the survival pressure brought by soaring raw material prices, raising the terminal price is the choice that car companies have to make this year. Faced with the current situation of the industry, despite the difficulties, Cadillac decided not to raise prices, "the choice and pre-sale price remain consistent in configuration and price."

Pan Mengmeng said, "Since Ruige is Cadillac’s first pure electric product, we must ensure the high satisfaction of customers. This is our initiative, and the starting point is to provide customers with a quality experience."

It is reported that in order to better meet the needs of Ruige customers, Cadillac will also build experience stores in various cities, continue to explore the direct mode, and connect more closely with users through the "Cadillac IQ" online APP.

Pure electric IQ space, direct marketing system and energy-supplementing system are all new attempts made by Cadillac in sharp songs, and to a certain extent, Cadillac is adapting to market changes. When everyone is running on the same track, what kind of people can run longer? Cadillac’s answer is focus, focus on itself, not the game.

"Although all friends are on the same track as us, for all players on this track, the primary goal is to consider how to meet the needs of different consumer groups. We hope to bring more derivative value to consumers through products, services, rights and interests, and the whole brand, and give consumers a value-for-money experience. " Pan Mengmeng said.

Le Jia disciple Cui Wanzhi sent Weibo the original text is as follows:

    Last night (June 8th), I saw many netizens saying that Master Le was drunk, and even said that he was hyping himself. I felt very surprised, shocked and very sad. I knew that Master had put himself under great pressure and grievances for me, and I thought I could no longer remain silent.

    Anyone who is familiar with the musician knows that speaking is something he loves and devoted his life to. He loves everyone in our Nirvana team. Every time I give a speech, he teaches me by hand and inspires me word by word. In the face of my game, he pays more behind the scenes than I do. I know in my heart that he always hoped that he could fulfill his promise to the man I made in the audition.

    Master Yue believes that the quality of a speech mainly depends on how many people can be touched and how far the influence is. He doesn’t want me to just win sympathy points on the speaker stage, but to speak with real strength. His passion on the stage, I think, is that he has been worried that disabled people will suffer on this stage. He really hopes that I can go to the end, but I can go to today, in fact, I am very satisfied.

    Yesterday’s first speech, my state was not very good. Before the last lecture, in order to let me completely lay down my burden and stimulate my fighting spirit and potential, Mr. Le did not hesitate to be strong with wine. He asked me to drink half a glass of wine and said to me, Wan Zhi, I hope you will devote yourself to this lecture, forget your achievements, and pass on the sentence "Being a good person is much more important than being a successful person" to all people, so that your son will be proud of having a father like you in the future. He is totally trying to inspire my potential in this way, so that I can play better in the final. When Master Le encouraged me and canvassed for me, he was a little emotional when he spoke. Everyone who studied with him knows very well that I appreciate his painstaking efforts, but this may make some unfamiliar friends misunderstand or unhappy. Please understand.
 
    Thank you, Mr. Le Jia, for your careful guidance, companionship and encouragement over the past few months. Meeting Master Le is a blessing for my life.
