Cultural context, Huazhang, Liangzhu: the rebirth of Qingshan Greening Site

  Liangzhu, which means "a beautiful continent in water", is located in the plain of Yuhang District, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province. In 1936, Mr. Shi Xingeng of Lixihu Museum in Zhejiang Province first discovered and excavated many prehistoric sites in Liangzhu Town. In 1959, Liangzhu culture, named after Liangzhu site, was confirmed, which became an important witness to the 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization.

  Liangzhu has always touched the heart of the Supreme Leader General Secretary — — I visited the site twice and made important instructions on the protection and application of Liangzhu site many times.

  It is hard to imagine that this important root of Chinese civilization was once in jeopardy.

  At the beginning of the new century, due to the excellent quality of andesite produced in the local area, Liangzhu became a "gold mine" for stone mining. A large number of mountains and rocks were blasted, which seriously affected the development and protection of the site.

  On July 16th, 2003, the supreme leader of Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee came to Liangzhu site for investigation.

  "Liangzhu site is a sacred place to prove the history of China’s 5,000-year civilization, and it is a rare treasure. We must protect it!" In the conference room of Liangzhu Cultural Museum, the supreme leader watched the video of Liangzhu site protection and archaeological excavation, and listened to the report.

  When it was learned that it was difficult to shut down six stone mines in Deqing county, Huzhou, which affected the safety of the site, the supreme leader made a decisive decision, "Tomorrow, I will go to Huzhou."

  Soon, these quarries were completely shut down.

  Under the care and guidance of the supreme leader, the protection of Liangzhu site and archaeological work are getting better and better.

  On March 18th, 2005, Liangzhu Museum broke ground. This is an archaeological site museum integrating collection, research, exhibition and publicity of Liangzhu culture, with a construction area of about 10,000 square meters. On September 29th, 2008, it was officially completed and opened to the public.

  In 2007, an important discovery was made at the archaeological site of Liangzhu Site, and a prehistoric ancient city that had disappeared for more than 4,000 years appeared, which shocked the archaeological community in China. Subsequently, the archaeological excavation and research of the ancient city continued to deepen, and its spatial pattern, functional zoning and the connotation of various remains became increasingly clear.

  After working in the central government, the supreme leader has always been concerned about Liangzhu.

  On October 31, 2008, the Supreme Leader once again inspected the protection of Liangzhu Site. In Liangzhu Museum, he earnestly entrusted: "Liangzhu Museum should be built into a center for the exhibition and popularization of Liangzhu culture, an academic research center and a patriotic education center", and "the cultural relics collected in the museum should be ‘ Live ’ Get up. "

  On June 13, 2016, four archaeologists jointly sent a letter to the Supreme Leader, hoping to promote the Liangzhu site to declare the world cultural heritage as soon as possible. On July 13th, the Supreme Leader made an important instruction: "The work of declaring the world cultural heritage should be arranged as a whole, and the declared projects should be conducive to highlighting the historical and cultural value of Chinese civilization, embodying the spiritual pursuit of the Chinese nation, and showing the world the comprehensive and true ancient China and modern China."

  Liangzhu’s application for the World Heritage has thus entered the fast lane.

  On July 6, 2019, the 43rd meeting of UNESCO World Heritage Committee held in Azerbaijan brought good news — — Liangzhu Ancient City Site was successfully listed in the World Heritage List.

  "It represents the achievements of China’s great prehistoric rice civilization more than 5,000 years ago" and "it is an outstanding representative of urban civilization" — — The UNESCO World Heritage Committee spoke highly of it.

  Castle peak is still green, and the site is reborn. Nowadays, Liangzhu site is presented to the world with a brand-new look, showing the long history and humanistic heritage of Chinese civilization.

Chongqing Iron and Steel Steelmaking Plant No.1 Continuous Casting Operation Area: There are ingenious ways to change small leather into small leather, make the best use of it and reduce costs

  Insist on accounting management

  Firmly establish "all costs are available"fall"idea

  Based on the post and constantly improving.

  Let the small change small leather bear great fruit.

  Let’s look at the first continuous casting operation area of the steel plant

  What are the tricks?

 

  Oil leakage improvement of main equipment

  No.4 continuous caster fan-shaped frame roll gap control valve block plug-in seal,hardPipe joint sealing, drive roller transitionValve blockThere are different degrees of oil leakage in the seal, and the single oil leakage reaches more than 10 barrels in peak period, which affects the quality of billet and brings safety risks.

   

  In order to solve this problem, the steelmaking plant carried out tackling key problems and rectification, mobilized maintenance and spot inspection personnel under the overall organization of a continuous casting operation area, set up a tackling key problem team, found out the causes of seal leakage, formulated corresponding measures, and stopped losses quickly and in time. The research team replaced more than 480 sets of plug-in seals, more than 2,000 rack seals and more than 80 drive roller hoses.Strictly graspThe details of oil leakage and the practical implementation of the landing can ensure the stable and smooth production of the caster and save about 135 thousand yuan/month.

  Lubrication and consumption reduction of caster

  Grease mainly provides equipment lubrication for each caster during production.letThe key equipment of the caster is kept in good running condition. The first continuous casting operation area of the steel plant consumes about 60 barrels of grease every month, with a total cost of about 160,000 yuan, accounting for 30% of the monthly consumption of "Class 08" productive materials. In order to solve this problem, a series of measures have been taken in a continuous casting operation area:

   

  A set of perfect oil supply system has been reformed in the operation area. When the caster is in production, the oil supply system regularly adds grease to each lubricating point. According to the different positions of the caster, the caster is gradually enlarged without affecting the normal operation of the caster.thatOil supply cycle.

  After the implementation of this measure, the consumption of 5 barrels of grease can be reduced every month, and the cost can be saved by 13,400 yuan/month.

  The dosage of iron filings is fineminus

  A continuous casting operation area firmly establishes "all costs are acceptable"fall"Concept, start on-site production, and dig deep into projects that can reduce costs and increase efficiency. Iron filings are essential when starting the machine.coldMaterial, the monthly consumption of about 10 tons, its role is to shop in the plugging lead.ingotPaperrope, to avoid molten steel burning through the paper rope orblankThe accident of steel leakage caused by poor cooling of the head.

   

  In order to further reduce the consumption of scrap iron, the operation area passes throughWith othersSteel mills benchmark, and organize on-site evaluation of technical and operational backbones to accurately control the consumption of iron filings and changeNarrow edgeThe laying height of the iron filings and the thickness of the cambered iron filings not only ensure that the iron filings completely cover the paper rope, but also ensure thatblankHead cooling effect.

  After improvement, everyflowThe consumption of scrap iron is reduced by about 20kg compared with before, and the consumption of scrap iron can be saved by 10 tons per year, and the production cost can be saved by 53,000 yuan.

  Be careful and live a tight life

  Everyone controls costs and everyone reduces costs.

Businessmen give directions? Kun Peng trail "signpost streamer" leads to controversy

In the seventh paragraph of Kunpeng Trail, the reporter saw that many trees were hung with road signs and streamers, with QR codes attached.

Shenzhen Business Daily reporter Wen Canwen/map

Recently, a little red book user posted that the trees along Shenzhen Kunpeng Trail were covered by a large number of colorful "road signs". Although these streamers are euphemistically called "guiding signs", they actually become "camouflage" for commercial advertisements. Netizens called for strict rectification of this phenomenon.

It is reported that most sections of Kunpeng Trail have set up official signs at intervals of 500 meters. In this case, is it still necessary to hang additional outdoor road signs? A few days ago, the reporter visited the 7 th and 10 th paragraphs of Kunpeng Trail on the spot and found that most of the so-called road signs in the wild along the way had a strong commercial atmosphere, which had deviated from the original intention of "guiding the way".

On-site: Commercial advertisements put on the coat of "guiding the way"

Outdoor signposts (commonly known as "signpost streamers") are intended to prevent getting lost and provide directions at key paths or fork roads. The reporter found on the spot that the streamers on Kunpeng Trail are mainly divided into three categories: activity propaganda streamers, commercial advertisements streamers and temporary government guidance streamers.

In the seventh section of Kunpeng Trail (from Zijian Garden to Jimuge), although the official signs are clearly visible along the way, many trees are still hung with road signs and streamers. Although they are under the banner of "helping the donkey friends to guide the way", they are mostly advertising carriers, and many of them are accompanied by QQ numbers or QR codes.

The reporter scanned a streamer QR code printed with the words "Shenzhen is fun and outdoor" and entered a small program of a travel agency. After registering and logging in, users can sign up for travel activities all over the country, and the cost ranges from 0 yuan to several thousand yuan. Another streamer with the small print of "outdoor hiking group" is displayed as a personal WeChat of an employee of a jewelry company in Shenzhen after scanning the code, and its signature includes jewelry products, courses and cultural tourism projects. A similar situation also exists in section 10 of Kunpeng Trail (Wutongshan section).

Controversy: Is it necessary to "flag streamer"?

In response to the phenomenon of "road signs floating" in Kunpeng Trail, the reporter interviewed some citizens randomly.

"The logo system of Shenzhen Kunpeng Trail itself is actually quite perfect," said Zhipeng, a senior hiker. "The density of official road signs is very high, and there is one every few hundred meters. In addition to the standard signs, there are also animal and plant science cards and emergency guidance cards along the way, and there are also clear reminder cards at key intersections. " He bluntly criticized the commercial streamers: "Many streamers are obviously printed with QR codes, that is, the commercial team is propaganda under the guise of’ guiding the way’, and the motivation is too explicit!"

Kobayashi, a novice hiker, holds a different view: "For those of us who are inexperienced, seeing the streamer will really feel at ease, at least indicating that someone has walked this route." She believes that streamers can provide intuitive assistance for hikers who are not familiar with trajectory navigation.

Suggestion: the organizer of outdoor activities should bear the responsibility of cleaning up.

In response to this phenomenon, Cao Jun, vice president of Shenzhen Mountaineering Outdoor Sports Association, pointed out that the organizers of outdoor activities should bear the responsibility of cleaning up. "It is recommended that outdoor clubs clean up the left streamers after the activities. In the road section where the official logo is clear enough, it is not necessary to hang additional signs. "

Pan Xiang, a lawyer of Guangdong Zhongan Law Firm and director of Shenzhen Law Society, said, "The streamer hung by the merchants is called a road sign, which is actually an outdoor advertisement. It is suspected of violating relevant regulatory regulations and is an outdoor advertisement set without approval." He pointed out that the road signs designed by merchants themselves are not necessarily accurate, which may mislead "donkey friends", occupy public resources and pollute the environment after being abandoned.

Official response: Private commercial streamers will be included in the "blacklist"

With the basic connection of the "Three Trails and Three Lines" hiking trail network in Shenzhen, the "road signs" left by various hiking teams are also increasing day by day. "Any commercial advertising streamers and unregistered activities are strictly prohibited from hanging in the Kunpeng Trail area. At the same time, we will also increase the lack of dangerous road signs based on the feedback from hikers, and add safety signs as needed. " The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Urban Management and Comprehensive Law Enforcement Bureau said.

The Municipal Urban Management and Comprehensive Law Enforcement Bureau is speeding up the formulation of the Measures for the Administration of Hiking Trails in Shenzhen, incorporating the relevant management requirements into the legal system, and blacklisting the activity organizations that fail to report as required, set up commercial streamers privately or fail to clean up, so as to restrict them from carrying out activities in Kunpeng Trail. And encourage citizens to participate in supervision and reporting by dialing 12345.

The effect of measures to ensure supply and price stability continues to appear, and there are good conditions for market price stability.

  CCTV News:The State Council held a press conference on September 16th. At the press conference, Fu Linghui, spokesman of the National Bureau of Statistics, said that China’s market supply capacity is relatively strong, the effect of measures to ensure supply and stabilize prices will continue to appear, and there are good conditions for market price stability.

  In August, despite the influence of extreme weather such as high temperature and drought, the efforts to ensure supply and stabilize prices in the domestic market were gradually effective, the supply of domestic goods and services was generally sufficient, and the lagging influence of the downward trend of international oil prices was also emerging. In August, the consumer price changed from 0.5% in the previous month to 0.1% in the previous month, up 2.5% year-on-year, and the growth rate dropped by 0.2 percentage points from the previous month.

  From the ring comparison, the decline in consumer prices is due to the decline in the price increase of pork and fresh vegetables. The supply of live pigs was promoted in an orderly manner, and the slaughter of live pigs gradually recovered, which led to a decline in the price increase of pork. In August, the month-on-month increase in pork prices and vegetable prices dropped by 25.2 percentage points and 8.3 percentage points respectively.

The difference between domestic e-commerce and cross-border e-commerce

The difference between domestic e-commerce and cross-border e-commerce

When it comes to e-commerce, we all know that the familiar e-commerce platforms include Taobao, JD.COM and Pinduoduo, all of which are domestic e-commerce, but when it comes to cross-border e-commerce, many people may not understand.

Cross-border e-commerce is an international business activity in which transaction subjects belonging to different customs reach deals, make payment and settlement through e-commerce platforms, and deliver goods and complete transactions through cross-border logistics.

From the definition, we can see such three key words: transaction subjects in different customs, payment and settlement, and cross-border logistics. The difference between cross-border e-commerce and domestic e-commerce is also reflected here.

Take B2C export e-commerce as an example:

(1) Transaction subjects in different customs: Different customs means that compared with domestic e-commerce, cross-border e-commerce will face many complicated and changeable customs procedures, trade policies and other issues in import and export trade. For example: import and export tariffs, customs declaration, inspection and quarantine and so on.

(2) Payment and settlement: the cost is high, the payment takes a long time and there is exchange rate risk.

① Domestic e-commerce: The domestic e-commerce payment and settlement system is mature, and most of them use online banking payment and third-party payment methods such as Alipay and WeChat, which are convenient and fast, with low cost and short payment cycle (mostly within 15 days).

② Cross-border e-commerce: The payment system of cross-border e-commerce is relatively immature, especially for B2B large-scale trade. Most of them are paid by international payment tools such as PayPal, and the handling fee is as high as 3%-5% of the transaction amount, which has exchange rate risk and the payment period can be as long as 1-6 months. There is a great financial pressure on cross-border e-commerce sellers.

(3) Cross-border logistics: logistics has long time limit, high cost, low service level and high packet loss rate.

The difference between cross-border e-commerce and domestic e-commerce

1. Differences in business links

Cross-border e-commerce business links are more complicated. It needs to go through customs clearance, inspection and quarantine, foreign exchange settlement, export tax rebate, import tax collection and other links.

In the transportation of goods, cross-border e-commerce leaves the country by express delivery, and it takes longer for the goods to be sold to foreign consumers. Because of the long distance, the goods are easy to be damaged, and the express delivery capacity of various countries is relatively limited, and the growing number of parcels is also easy to cause trade friction. Domestic e-commerce takes place in China, and the goods are delivered to consumers by express delivery, with short journey, fast arrival speed and low probability of goods damage.

2. Differences of transaction subjects

The subjects of e-commerce transactions are generally in China, domestic enterprises to enterprises, domestic enterprises to individuals or domestic individuals to individuals. And the theme of the cross-border electronic commerce deal must be between customs.

It may be domestic enterprises to overseas enterprises, domestic enterprises to overseas individuals or domestic individuals to overseas individuals. Trading subjects spread all over the world and have different consumption habits, cultural psychology and living habits, which requires cross-border e-commerce to have a deeper understanding of the introduction of traffic from various countries, the promotion and marketing of various countries, the behavior of foreign consumers, and the construction of international brands, and the complexity is far beyond that of domestic e-commerce.

3. Differences in transaction risks

Domestic enterprises only have a weak awareness of property rights, and a large number of brand-free and low-quality goods and counterfeit goods flood the cross-border electronic commerce market, infringing on intellectual property rights and other phenomena occur from time to time.

In countries with perfect business environment and legal system, it is easy to cause intellectual property disputes. Domestic e-commerce behavior takes place in the same country, and both parties have a unified understanding of intellectual property rights such as trademarks and brands. There are fewer disputes caused by infringement, and disputes arise in time, which is shorter and more convenient.

4. Differences in applicable rules

Cross-border e-commerce needs to adapt to more detailed and complicated rules than domestic e-commerce. The first is the platform rules. In addition to domestic platforms, cross-border e-commerce operations may also conduct transactions on foreign cross-border e-commerce platforms, and each platform has different operating rules.

Cross-border e-commerce should be based on international general trade agreements and bilateral changeable trade agreements. Cross-border e-commerce should keep abreast of changes in the international trading system, rules, import and export controls and policies, and also have a deeper understanding and analysis of import and export forms.

Standardization of sign language and Braille in China ushered in a new milestone.

  A few days ago, the National Common Sign Language Glossary and the National Common Braille Program were officially released by the Ministry of Education, state language commission and China Disabled Persons’ Federation, and officially implemented on July 1, 2018. This means that sign language has "Mandarin" and Braille has "standard words".

  What is the significance of the publication of Thesaurus and Scheme? How was it developed? What are the characteristics? What problems should be paid attention to in the process of understanding and using? The reporter interviewed the heads of the two specification development teams.

  Further safeguard the language rights of the disabled.

  "This is an important achievement and a new milestone in the standardization of sign language and Braille in China, which has laid a solid foundation for future application and promotion, basic research, personnel training, discipline construction and social services." The person in charge of the development team of the two specifications said.

  In his view, the publication of the Thesaurus and the Program is the enrichment and supplement of the national common language, and it is the guarantee for the language rights of hearing-impaired and visual-impaired people to use sign language and Braille; It provides convenience for them to participate in social life equally and fully and share the development achievements of building a well-off society in an all-round way, which will further accelerate the standardization process of sign language and Braille and greatly promote the prosperity and development of culture and education for the disabled.

  The Thesaurus follows the principle of "adding new words, correcting mistakes and deleting old ones", and greatly supplements the number of commonly used words in sign language that reflect the development and changes of modernization, informationization and urbanization, so that it can basically meet the needs of hearing-impaired people in study, work and daily communication; Revise the actions in the original Chinese Sign Language that do not conform to the rules and characteristics of sign language expression for hearing disabled people; Delete obsolete words. After passing the final appraisal in 2015, it was piloted in 15 provincial deaf associations and 18 schools that enrolled deaf students, with thousands of participants.

  In 2010, the research on universal Braille was listed as an annual major project of the Twelfth Five-Year Scientific Research Plan of the State Language Committee and the China Disabled Persons’ Federation. The main task of the research is to fully absorb the advantages of existing Braille at home and abroad, adjust the existing rules of Braille transcription, realize comprehensive transcription, and reduce the length through simplification.

  Reflect the characteristics of the times and have stronger applicability.

  The person in charge introduced that the Thesaurus consists of two parts: one is to explain the scope of application, the definitions of some core terms used, the style and meaning of graphic symbols of sign language action lines, the basic principles of compilation and instructions for use; Secondly, according to the word order, the sign language widely used by the majority of hearing-impaired people in real life is included, which replaces many sign languages that correspond to Chinese characters in the past, greatly reducing the use of finger letters, paying attention to describing the changes of body movements and facial expressions during sign language expression, and focusing on embodying the language characteristics of sign language.

  "The Scheme follows the initial consonants, vowels, tones and punctuation marks of the current Braille, without changing, deleting or adding any symbols. It only perfects the current Braille phonetic transcription rules and standardizes the usage of tone symbols, which is the inheritance and development of the current Braille." The person in charge said that the "Program" shows the characteristics of convergence between the old and the new, accurate pronunciation, time-saving and party-saving, and is conducive to informationization.

  It is reported that accurate pronunciation is the primary goal of revising the rules of tone adjustment, and the tone of Braille, which is commonly used in the country, must be accurate. The perceptual characteristics of touch determine that Braille, as a tactile character, must be concise and try to improve the reading and writing speed of Braille as much as possible.

  Exploration of incorporating sign language norms into national language norms

  It is the first time since the reform and opening up 40 years ago that sign language norms have been included in the standard category of language and writing norms of the State Language Committee. The expression of sign language is as rich and flexible as audio language. What content is suitable for standardization and how to standardize it need further study. In this regard, the Lexicon has made a meaningful exploration.

  "At this stage, when using the Glossary, we need to grasp four groups of relationships, such as lingua franca and local sign language, life sign language and teaching sign language, sign language lexicology and use, and the Glossary and other countries’ common sign language reference books." The person in charge introduced that in terms of the use of common sign language and local sign language, the sign language actions presented in the Thesaurus are required to be used in official activities, school education, TV media, book publishing and other occasions or fields, as well as in the sign language level assessment held in the country in the future; Local sign language will still be used for a long time. In terms of life sign language and school sign language teaching, the Glossary specifically mentions "seeking common ground while reserving differences" and "beneficial to teaching". If there are regional differences or multiple ways of playing sign language vocabulary expressing the same thing and concept, the Glossary is juxtaposed, and there is no exclusivity. In terms of sign language lexicology and usage, the Thesaurus only shows the sign language actions of words, and the use of these words requires different sentence patterns. Sign language grammar has its own laws and characteristics and needs special study.

  "In addition, in terms of promotion, the China Disabled Persons’ Federation is working with the Ministry of Education, the State Language Committee and the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television to formulate a national universal sign language and national universal Braille promotion plan, focusing on special education institutions and public services, breaking through the difficulty of hearing and visual disabilities in society, and promoting national universal sign language and Braille step by step through backbone training, offering courses and improving relevant norms." The person in charge said. (Reporter Dong Luyi Long)

Haier’s Internet Transformation: 60,000 employees are "starting businesses"

On Haier’s entrepreneurial platform, more and more non-Haier employees are pouring in, and Qiu Xingyu is one of them.

Before joining Haier as a maker, Qiu Xingyu worked in a financial consulting company that had business dealings with Haier. At that time, the consulting company made a due diligence report for the World Bank’s support to China, and Qiu Xingyu’s team undertook the task of in-depth analysis of agriculture. They believe that in the future, China’s agriculture will enter a stage of rapid development, and may even usher in a blowout state like the real estate industry.

Such an experience has accumulated a lot of experience for Qiu Xingyu to later grab Haier Financial’s entrepreneurial project. In 2013, when she participated in the consulting project of Haier Finance, she learned that the other party had plans to carry out financial leasing business, specifically providing financial services for external industries. To this end, Haier also established a financial leasing company in Shanghai Free Trade Zone with Bohou Strategy Company where Qiu Xingyu is located.

The five major industrial financial projects released by Haier Financial Platform include consumer finance, food agriculture, medical care, green finance and community finance. Interested teams can participate in the competition with business plans. Haier is responsible for providing start-up funds and corresponding entrepreneurial services, while small and micro companies are responsible for specific management, and all decisions are finalized by makers themselves.

Maker and Xiaowei are one of the internal reform concepts put forward by Zhang Ruimin, Chairman and CEO of Haier Group. According to his idea, Haier is now mainly composed of three types of people. The first is the platform owner, and positions like Zhou Yunjie, the rotating president of Haier, belong to the big platform owner. The second is small and micro-owners, which refer to start-up companies established on different platforms within Haier. The third type of makers are entrepreneurs who hold certain shares in small and micro companies. They need to sign a gambling agreement with Haier, and only when they reach a certain target value can they cash in their shares. For example, Qiu Xingyu’s company belongs to micro-owners, and Qiu Xingyu himself is a maker.

Qiu Xingyu led a four-person team to win food and agriculture projects from a group of small and micro companies that grabbed orders at the same time, leading the way to do industrial finance. This is just the same as Haier’s industrial finance thinking. Previously, she had 8 years’ experience in financial leasing consulting industry. Financing lease, also known as equipment lease, refers to a lease that essentially transfers all or most of the risks and rewards related to asset ownership. The ownership of assets may or may not be transferred eventually.

In all food agriculture, Qiu Xingyu chose to start with the egg industry in the aquaculture industry. By investing in fixed assets for the upstream egg companies, laying hens were used as a kind of equipment for financing, and the related companies in the upstream industrial chain were joined together to achieve overall food quality control and ensure stable output. So far, the financial products developed by this small and micro company have been updated to the fourth generation products.

Specifically, in order to ensure the safety of food raw materials, egg companies need to fully control the purchased feed, vaccines, chickens, breeding environment and processes, and inevitably have a large amount of fixed assets investment. Qiu Xingyu’s first generation products mainly solve the problem of fixed assets investment, and lease the equipment to egg enterprises for use.

After the fixed assets are built, aquaculture still needs liquidity. This small and micro company has also developed a model of using biomass as a tool to carry out financing. Generally speaking, in the financial field, real estate and cars were usually used as collateral, but Qiu Xingyu’s team realized that domestic animals such as chickens, cows and pigs could be used as collateral. This is the second generation product.

In the third generation, it mainly solves the problem of liquidity in sales. The fourth generation is to build an ecological circle with feed suppliers, breeding equipment suppliers, leading enterprises of egg products and farmers. Feed suppliers provide feed and vaccines, guarantee companies are responsible for loans, Qiu Xingyu’s Xiaowei is responsible for providing fixed assets, farmers are responsible for breeding, and egg products companies are responsible for sales. Next, this small and micro company also wants to develop into a platform.

This model quickly gained market recognition. From May 2014 to August this year, the business volume of this small and micro company has reached 1 billion yuan, and the team members have expanded from 4 to 24, all of which are from outside Haier.

According to Qiu Xingyu’s introduction to the interface journalist, there are 9 maker teams under the entire Haier industrial financial platform, covering medical care, healthy consumption, intelligent transportation, community finance, logistics, food agriculture and other aspects. Among these maker teams, Qiu Xingyu’s small and micro companies have the highest comprehensive income and financial indicators, especially gross profit, although the business volume is not the largest. The gross profit in the first half of this year reached more than 30 million yuan. In the next three years, she hopes that the company’s business volume will reach 10 billion yuan.

From the perspective of Haier Group, Haier’s industrial finance is a big platform. Maker and Xiaowei are only part of Haier’s industrial finance, and Haier Finance itself has many investment projects. Haier Finance is also divided into two small platforms: one is called Sharing Center, which mainly provides financial and human resources services for small and micro companies on the platform; The other is called the resource center, which is mainly responsible for the consulting business of small and micro companies. There is a cooperative relationship between small and micro companies and the above platforms, and the completeness of small and micro companies determines the resources that can be obtained at the level of Haier’s big platform and the mechanism of profit distribution.

If the team maturity of small and micro companies is 80%, it means that many functions need to depend on the platform. Due to the settlement relationship with the platform, you need to pay separately for some services provided by the platform, and you need to pay part of the profits to the platform. If the functions of small and micro companies are relatively perfect, and the business, administration, finance and other work are all done by themselves, then all the profits distributed may be owned by themselves.

At the beginning of the business, Qiu Xingyu’s team started in the form of Haier Microfinance Division, and they further derived their own small and micro company Hainong Investment Co., Ltd. to match the above projects. "It is usually necessary to get a financial license to carry out financial business. If I set up a company alone, it is difficult to get this license. It is not a problem to do this on Haier’s financial platform." She said.

Haier’s financial business, together with traditional household appliances and logistics business, has become the three major components of Haier’s overall revenue. Although this large-scale company has a strong gene for home appliance manufacturing, it has been trying to transform to the Internet since 2012.

Different from many traditional manufacturing companies’ attempts to set up related departments separately for Internet, Haier’s reform wants to be more thorough, or to completely deny the current management system and subvert itself from various aspects such as organizational structure, management methods, revenue structure and profit distribution. In the past three years, small and large micro-companies have been established in Haier. Employees who join the micro-companies no longer enjoy Haier’s original fixed salary and need to advance and retreat with the micro-companies. In addition, some people choose to leave Haier.

"At the beginning of the reform, we didn’t understand why the company did it, and even many people would have resistance, which would touch some people’s interests after all ‘ Cake ’ . However, with the step-by-step advancement of maker thinking, some small and micro companies have achieved initial results, and everyone has slowly begun to accept it. More and more people are looking for entrepreneurial projects that suit them. " An employee who has worked in Haier for many years told the interface journalist.

According to the interface journalist, with the acceleration of Haier’s internal reform in the past two years, about 20 platforms and 183 small and micro companies have been formed. The entrepreneurial projects involve products such as home appliances and smart wearable devices, as well as services such as logistics, commerce and culture. There are also more and more outsiders who choose Haier platform to start their own businesses.

Before the reform, Haier had 86,000 employees, and after the reform, it was 60,000. According to the statement given by Haier, these 60,000 people belong to makers, and it can also be understood that Haier’s internal entrepreneurship is that every employee is involved. The remaining 26,000 people have been laid off by Haier.

"We encourage nearly 10,000 managers to transform, either to become entrepreneurial teams or to leave." Zhang Ruimin said earlier when attending a business forum. In this way, he hopes to speed up the efficiency of organizational communication, make the huge Haier have flexible components, and can set up or disband the team at any time as needed, and at the same time encourage each employee to become more active and work with the mentality of entrepreneurs rather than executors.

Just as many startups will face various business risks, these small and micro companies on Haier platform may declare failure at any time. After all, only a few people like Qiu Xingyu can quickly open the market, and more small and micro companies are still in the stage of arduous exploration and development.

Luciano Pavarotti

How did you become the king of the century?


In 1935, Luciano Pavarotti was born in the northern Italian city of Modena. In fact, before he became a singer, he was a primary school teacher and lived in poverty. In his spare time, he needed to sell insurance to supplement his family. But he inherited his father’s good voice, and both father and son joined the local choir.


Little Pavarotti and his parents.


At the age of twenty, Pavarotti’s choir won the championship in an international vocal competition. This gave him the idea of taking the road of professional singing. However, his father disagreed. According to my father’s own experience, even with the sound of nature, it is not easy to achieve success in the tenor field.


But his mother encouraged him to try bravely: "My son’s singing is very pleasant." So with the support of his mother, Pavarotti practiced his singing skills for six and a half years, and finally got the opportunity to play Rudolph, the leading actor in the famous opera Bohemian.


The third from the right is Pavarotti.

Affinity with China


Pavarotti has performed in China for four times, and his complex with China lasted for twenty years.


In 1986, Pavarotti came to China for the first time and performed his famous work Bohemian in Beijing Tianqiao Theater. At the same time, a solo concert was held in the Great Hall of the People, which made him the first western musician to perform in the Great Hall of the People.

Let Classics Rejuvenate in Fashion.


In the early 1990s, Pavarotti had become one of the richest singers in the entertainment industry, but he never forgot the embarrassing life of his childhood. Since 1993, every summer, he will hold a charity concert called "Pavarotti and His Friends" in his hometown of Modena, Italy, with his friends, and give his modest contribution to the displaced refugees, children and other people in need around the world.

Ricky Martin and celine dion were both guests at the charity concert. It was an era when pop music occupied the mainstream market, and Pavarotti, as a representative of classical music, became one of the most influential figures of that era. He brought bel canto, which has been confined to the classical music hall for hundreds of years, to the public by extremely relaxed entertainment, and injected new life into classical music.

director

And Pavarotti


The documentary film Pavarotti was directed by Ron Howard, a director who is very good at making biographies. In 2001, he won the Best Director Award at the 74th Academy Awards for his biopic. In addition, the film he directed was adapted from Nixon’s interview with host Foster. The film he directed is based on the true story of two F1 racers competing with each other in the 1970s.

In 2016, when Ron Howard directed the documentary film Eight Days a Week: The Beatles’ Tour Era, he became interested in music. At the suggestion of the producer, he decided to try to direct a film about Pavarotti.


Because in his view, although many people love opera and know who Pavarotti is, they don’t know him.


Director Ron Howard once said: "The Beatles’ documentaries let more people know the true side of the Beatles and give everyone a chance to understand and respect them. Pavarotti’s documentaries are also directed to do the same thing."

Consumer Rights Day takes you to know about invoice rights protection knowledge.

On the occasion of "March 15th International Consumer Rights Day", Chongqing tax authorities, in conjunction with the judicial and market supervision departments, organized personnel to go into business districts, plazas, markets and other places to distribute brochures, popularize consumer rights protection, invoice rights protection, tax law knowledge and other contents, guide business entities to standardize their operations, protect consumers’ legitimate rights and interests, and create a secure consumption environment.

"If the merchant refuses to issue invoices, consumers can provide clues to the tax authorities, which will order them to make corrections and impose a fine of less than 10,000 yuan. If there is illegal income, it will be confiscated." On March 12th, Zhongxian County Taxation Bureau organized a youth propaganda team of "Zhongba Car" to enter the local wanda plaza, and distributed "Invoice Use Risk Tips" to more than 100 settled businesses, informing them that when they collect money from business, they should issue invoices to consumers truthfully in time, and the legal consequences that enterprises will bear if they refuse to open or falsely issue invoices, so as to answer specific problems encountered by businesses in invoicing.

"We are still in the early stage of our business, and we don’t know much about taxation. Taxpayers come to the door to coach and invoice, reminding us of risks, which makes us more aware." Wang Yang, head of the Frodora children’s wear store in wanda plaza, Zhongxian County, said.

In the past few days, Chongqing tax authorities have focused on various small and medium-sized micro-business entities in the consumer market, organized personnel to explain the use norms and risk points of invoices, and provided one-on-one guidance on invoicing operations to guide them to operate in good faith according to law. For the vast number of consumers, through the distribution of brochures, broadcast promotional videos and other means, help consumers understand the tax knowledge closely related to their own rights and interests, encourage citizens to obtain invoices according to law, and actively resist fake invoices.

"Log in to the national VAT invoice inspection platform in State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China and enter the invoice information to check the authenticity of the invoice in your hand." On March 15th, Yunyang County Taxation Bureau and the local market supervision bureau launched a consumer rights day publicity campaign. At the scene, tax officials explained to the public the way to check the authenticity of invoices, and sent hot question-and-answer manuals such as "No invoices for discounts", "No invoices for group purchase packages" and "No invoices for cross-month".

Chongqing tax authorities reminded that the current laws, regulations and related policies do not clearly stipulate the time limit for invoicing. The stipulations of merchants, such as not being able to issue invoices across months, are only unilateral acts and have no legal basis. Invoicing has nothing to do with whether it is discounted or not. Discounting is only a way for merchants to promote sales. Regardless of whether consumers buy goods at regular prices or consume discounted goods, as long as there is business behavior, sellers should issue invoices according to law.

On March 13th, the tax bureau of Wulong District organized eight staff members to distribute self-made comic brochures such as "Asking for invoices from merchants has these benefits" and "Guide to Consumer Invoicing" in the city square. "The merchant said that the service provided is not within the business scope of the business license and the ticket cannot be opened. Is it true?" In response to questions from the public, tax officials in Wulong District said that taxpayers should invoice according to the facts, even if they are beyond the business scope of the business license, except that the state has ordered them to ban sales and have industry access qualifications.

In the series of consumer rights day publicity activities, Chongqing tax authorities also set up a report account according to the reports and complaints of alleged infringement reflected by the people on the spot, and took corresponding measures to deal with, solve and feedback within a limited time to fully safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of consumers.

On the morning of March 15th, at the publicity activity of consumer rights protection held in Jinjie Square, West City, Baishiyi, Hi-tech Zone, the Taxation Bureau of Hi-tech Zone set up a reporting desk for tax violations. Ms. Zhang, a citizen, said, "Last week, I went to eat hot pot with my friends, and the store owner said that the checkout was discounted and I couldn’t issue an invoice."

"You tell me the consumption record, business information and contact information, and we will feedback the processing results to you as soon as possible after investigation and verification." The tax personnel recorded the report information reflected by Ms. Zhang on the spot and contacted the staff to handle the feedback in time.

According to the relevant person in charge of Chongqing Taxation Bureau, invoice disputes account for a large proportion in daily tax-related reporting cases. As long as there is consumption behavior, consumers have the right to ask the payee to issue invoices, regardless of the amount and method of consumption. The payee’s refusal to issue invoices or false invoices for any reason violates the Measures for the Administration of Invoices in People’s Republic of China (PRC).

If consumers encounter merchants who refuse to issue invoices for any reason or have doubts about the invoices they have received, they can call the 12366 tax payment service hotline or log on to the official website of Chongqing Taxation Bureau, and click "Report on Tax Violations" in the "Interactive Communication" column to report online.
