  Writing the answer sheet of the times to reform and strengthen the army

  — — Summary of achievements in national defense and army building in the new era (II)

  ■ Liberation Army Daily reporter Qian Xiaohu Han Cheng

  In the desert Gobi, a certain unit of the army organizes multi-arms cross-domain maneuver and three-dimensional attack and defense; Over the East China Sea, the J -20 fighter formation thundered forward to carry out actual combat drills in the maritime direction; In the western Pacific, the carrier formation of Liaoning ships is breaking waves and tempering its offshore combat capability … … On the occasion of the people’s army’s 95th birthday, we can truly feel the profound changes brought by the reform and strengthening of the army through the turbulent pictures on the training ground of the three military exercises.

  A strong country must strengthen the army, and a strong army must reform. In November, 2015, when the snow began to fall in Beijing, the Central Military Commission’s reform work conference was held. President Xi issued a mobilization order to deepen the reform of national defense and the army: fully implement the strategy of strengthening the army through reform and unswervingly follow the road of strengthening the army with China characteristics. The unprecedented integrity and revolutionary changes in the strength, depth and breadth of our military history have thus begun.

  The spring tide is surging, and the torrent is brave. The organizational structure of our army has undergone a historic transformation, the road to elite soldiers with China characteristics has taken a historic step, and Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s military policy system is becoming more and more complete … … Today, the people’s army reborn from the fire is accelerating towards the goal of a world-class army by leaps and bounds.

  Strategic plan, "key trick" to win the future

  It is often a keen and powerful ideological lever that incites history.

  Standing at the new time coordinate point, looking back at the course of national defense and military reform again, and looking back at the holistic and revolutionary reconstruction and remodeling brought by this round of reform to the people’s army, we feel more deeply the profound historical vision, broad strategic considerations and strong mission responsibility of the military commander.

  Back to November 15th, 2012, just after the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China closed, President Xi presided over the first executive meeting of the new Military Commission, which clearly pointed out that we should always forge ahead in the spirit of reform and innovation and strive to seize the initiative in military competition. More than 20 days later, President Xi came to the forefront of China’s reform and opening up — — Guangdong, inspected the Haikou ship at Shekou Port in Shenzhen and sailed with the ship for 4 hours.

  "President Xi has high hopes for reforming the strong army and building a strong navy." After a lapse of 10 years, when President Xi inspected the scene overlooking the sea, Shan Donghui, the captain of Haikou Ship, was still vivid; The earnest entrustment of the commander-in-chief always haunts the hearts of naval officers and soldiers. Now, the photo of President Xi and the sailors at the bow of the ship is displayed in the Military History Museum of the detachment where Haikou Ship is located, always encouraging officers and men to be strong in the chart.

  If you can’t make the sea, you must make it. The Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, more than 100 years ago, was a very painful "national mourning" in the history of modern China, and was called "the pain of gouging out one’s heart" by President Xi.

  Gaze at history and observe reality. In the second decade of 21st century, China has become the second largest economy in the world. However, the road from the big to the strong is doomed to be uneven.

  Looking around the world, the international pattern and system are undergoing profound adjustment, the global governance system is undergoing profound changes, and the international power balance is undergoing the most revolutionary changes in modern times. In this unprecedented great change, the new military revolution in the world, with the essence of fighting for the strategic initiative, has developed in depth, and major countries have adjusted their security strategies and military strategies one after another, and adjusted their military organizational forms. Its speed, scope, depth and influence are rare since the end of the Second World War.

  "Once the military backwardness is formed, the impact on national security will be fatal. I often read some historical materials of modern China, and it hurts me to see the tragic scene of being beaten behind! " President Xi warned the whole army that the new military revolution provided us with a golden opportunity. We must hit the water in the middle stream, and we can’t do it without changing it, and we can’t do it if we change it slowly. This is a big exam that we can’t avoid. The army must hand over a qualified answer to the party and the people and to history.

  A hundred battles struggle, and those who struggle first. Focusing on the multiple considerations of history and reality, international and domestic, war and peace, a blueprint for profound changes in the future of the people’s army has been brewing in the commander’s mind.

  "What I think most is whether our army can always uphold the absolute leadership of the party when the party and the people need it, whether it can pull up and win the battle, and whether commanders at all levels can lead troops to fight and direct the war." At an important meeting of the army, President Xi’s words struck a deaf ear. This is the questioning of the times and the questioning of the mission.

  Examination and questioning come from a deep insight into the risk challenges on the road ahead, and more from a clear understanding of our military’s capabilities and shortcomings — — "There is still a big gap between the modernization level of our army and the national security demand, and between our army and the world’s advanced military level", "Our army is not capable of fighting modern wars, and cadres at all levels are not capable of commanding modern wars", "Without reform, we can’t fight and win battles" … …

  National rejuvenation, read here; Strengthen the army and build the army, and linger at night. President Xi profoundly pointed out: We must deepen the reform of national defense and the army with greater wisdom and courage. This is the requirement of the times to realize the Chinese dream and the dream of strengthening the army, the only way to strengthen the army and the key measure to determine the future of the army.

  Seek the layout of the article, and make a sound. On March 15, 2014, a message from Xinhua News Agency attracted much attention at home and abroad: the supreme leader served as the leader of the Central Military Commission’s leading group for deepening national defense and army reform. It is the first time in the history of the party that the general secretary of the party personally serves as the leader of the leading group for deepening the reform of national defense and the army.

  This year marks the 120th anniversary of the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. After two Jiazi, China’s army embarked on a brand-new starting point of transformation and strength.

  "The easy and happy reform has been completed, all the delicious meat has been eaten, and the rest are hard bones." Facing the tough battle of national defense and army reform, President Xi encouraged all officers and men of the army: The more difficult it is, the more determined they must be and forge ahead, and they must never be hesitant and timid. As long as the whole army unites its will, dares to gnaw hard bones, and dares to wade in dangerous beaches, there will be no flaming mountain that can’t be crossed!

  At the critical moment, the strategic vision and political determination of the supreme commander are the decisive factors for the success of the reform. Focusing on promoting the reform of national defense and the army, President Xi presided over the collective study of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee twice, presided over the meeting of the leading group for the reform of the Military Commission three times, listened to the opinions and suggestions on the reform of large units many times in person, and personally organized and studied major issues of reform.

  Where are the institutional obstacles? What are the structural contradictions? How many policy issues are there? A number of reform special groups and expert advisory groups conducted extensive research, concentrated wisdom and repeatedly demonstrated — —

  More than 690 military units, more than 800 symposiums and demonstration meetings, more than 900 on-the-job and retired military leaders and experts, more than 2,000 team members of units above the military level and officers of divisions and brigades, and more than 3,400 opinions of officers and men of the army. The reform plan has been adjusted, revised and improved more than 150 times before and after … …

  The reform of national defense and the army concerns the overall situation and the whole country. From inside the military to outside the military, from the central government to the local government, all localities and departments have given strong support to deepening the investigation and demonstration of national defense and military reform and drawing up plans, thus forming a touching situation in which the party, government, army and people in Qi Xin work together to help reform. The National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Bureau of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense actively participated in the reform demonstration; The Central Organization Department, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security launched an in-depth study on the reform of management and security for retired military personnel & HELIP; …

  Fighting day and night, the Military Commission Reform Office launched a high-intensity, high-density and wide-ranging investigation. Opinions and suggestions from all sides, like a clear spring, inject fresh vitality into the scheme.

  In July 2015, President Xi presided over the third plenary meeting of the leading group for the reform of the Central Military Commission, and reviewed and approved in principle the Proposal on the Overall Plan for Deepening the Reform of National Defense and the Army. Subsequently, President Xi presided over the executive meeting of the Central Military Commission and the The Politburo Standing Committee (PSC) meeting respectively to review and approve the Overall Plan. A set of reform designs that solve deep-seated contradictions, have major innovation breakthroughs, and reflect the characteristics of the people’s army have emerged.

  The hoof is fast and steady, and the "three major battles" are like a rainbow.

  Some moments are destined to be unforgettable, and some events are destined to go down in history.

  In the snowy midsummer, the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the harsh alarm cuts through the tranquility of a brigade camp of the 76 th Army. Personnel gathering, unpacking equipment and loading formation … … A full-loaded pull drill kicked off. Looking at the new barracks which integrates the functions of command, training, living and security, Qiu Shaoyun’s company commander Dunzhi Bading really felt the strength of reform: five years ago, when the company moved thousands of miles from Hexi Corridor, it was still a desolate Gobi.

  Reform affects the hearts of every officer and soldier. "What is discipline, that is, the party will do whatever it wants." As a witness and witness, Dun Chi-Badin knows well the difficulty of relocation and the pain of reform. "But no matter how difficult and painful it is, we must be resolute and resolute."

  This is a historic moment: at 0: 00 on January 16, 2016, the seven military regions of Shenyang, Beijing, Lanzhou, Jinan, Nanjing, Guangzhou and Chengdu stopped exercising their command, and the five war zones in the east, south, west, north and central began to operate.

  In less than a month, 15 functional departments of the Central Military Commission were adjusted and formed, and the army leadership, rocket army and strategic support forces were established, which made a big step in the reform of the leadership and command system.

  Focusing on implementing the requirements of political army building under the new situation, promoting the organic unity of leading and commanding troops and deepening the reform of national defense and the army, the "first battle" starts with breaking the headquarters system, the military region system and the continental army system, and the first move is to build a leadership and command system of "the Central Military Commission is in charge of the general, the main battle of the theater and the main construction of the service".

  With one order, the headquarters system that has been running for decades has become history overnight. Among them, the number of institutions above the division level has been reduced by more than 200, and the number of personnel has been reduced by one third. Military Commission — War zone — The operational command system of the army and the Central Military Commission — Services — The leadership and management system of the army started to operate, and the long-standing institutional obstacles of the army were effectively solved.

  According to experts’ evaluation, the new pattern is of great significance for ensuring the party’s absolute leadership over the army, ensuring the efficient command of the army by the military commission, ensuring the scientific planning of the military commission and strengthening the management of army building.

  The first battle laid the foundation stone and took advantage of the situation. In December 2016, a conference on the reform of the military scale structure and strength of the Central Military Commission was held in Beijing. President Xi personally deployed and deepened the "second big battle" of national defense and army reform.

  The reform of scale structure and strength organization is not simply "addition and subtraction", but the optimization of structure and function leads to scale adjustment, focusing on cracking structural contradictions and realizing the revolutionary reshaping of our military strength system, which is "slimming" and "strengthening the body". Throughout the history of world military development, the scale structure and strength of the army cannot be fixed, but must change with the changes of war forms and combat methods, as well as with the changes of national strategic needs and military missions and tasks. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the army is, it will be out of date and even vulnerable.

  On April 18th, 2017, President Xi met with the heads of 84 corps units newly reorganized by the whole army. Ten days later, the regular press conference of the Ministry of National Defense revealed that the army’s 18 group army titles were revoked, and the 13 group army titles after adjustment and formation were announced at the same time. In that reform, Qiu Shaoyun’s former army, like many troops deployed for relocation, left the old camp that had been stationed for more than 40 years, came to a strange new station, and came to a place closer to the front line of military struggle, set up camp, and prepared for training and consolidation.

  The boldness and boldness of China’s military reform once again shocked the world: the number of military posts was reduced by 300,000, and the total number of active posts was reduced to 2 million; More than 1,000 units and institutions above the corps level have been reduced, the number of active posts in non-combat institutions has been reduced by nearly half, and the number of combat troops has increased rather than decreased, making it more substantial; The thinking pattern and historical inertia of the concept of mechanized warfare in the "Great Military Region" and "Continental Army" have been gradually changed. The mode of focusing on military groups and winning by quantity, the power structure and deployment of land-based and homeland-defensive forces have been changed, and the degree of integration of troops, the flexibility of operational grouping and application have been significantly improved.

  If the reform of the leadership and command system focuses on "strengthening the brain", the reform of scale structure and strength formation focuses on "strengthening the bones and muscles", and the reform of the military policy system focuses on "connecting the meridians". In mid-November 2018, the Central Military Commission’s policy system reform work conference was held in Beijing, which opened the prelude to deepening the "third big battle" of national defense and military reform.

  "The military policy system regulates military relations, standardizes military practice, and ensures military development. The reform of the military policy system is very important for realizing the party’s goal of strengthening the army in the new era, building the people’s army into a world-class army in an all-round way, and realizing ‘ Two hundred years ’ The Chinese dream of striving for the goal and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is of great significance. " President Xi’s important speech pointed out the direction for promoting reform.

  Four days after the meeting, the list of policies and systems issued just before was released. Twenty-seven policies and systems were included in the list, including strengthening the construction of party organizations, selecting and transferring cadres in war zones, improving the relevant policies of troops stationed in plateau islands, encouraging scientific and technological innovation, managing employment contracts for civilian personnel, and providing medical care for military personnel and their families.

  Promote the reform of military expenditure management, military salaries, housing and medical security, improve the management and security system and mechanism of retired military personnel, and build and improve the military honor system … … A series of policies and systems embodying the characteristics of military occupation have been stepped up, providing a solid institutional guarantee for improving the combat effectiveness and stimulating the vitality of the troops.

  Rebuild and rebuild, and the "big country array" has taken on a new look.

  Time is the best developer and the best touchstone.

  At the foot of Helan Mountain, the wind and thunder surge. The "Western Joint -2021" exercise, which attracted worldwide attention and was full of bright spots, was launched at the Army Qingtongxia Contract Tactical Training Base.

  In this exercise, China and Russia sent more than 10,000 troops, invested in multi-type aircraft, artillery and armored equipment, and conducted dozens of exercises such as joint air defense, joint obstacle breaking and joint three-dimensional capture. The armed forces of the two countries reached a new height in coordinated operations.

  The exercise was led by our army, instead of the independent grouping planning before, it was changed into the mixed grouping and joint planning of the two armies, and the bilingual command information system was used throughout, and the situation data was shared … …

  Seeing many new changes, the military experts on the spot can’t help feeling the performance of China’s army: the command level of this exercise is flatter, the operational grouping is more flexible, and the degree of integration and modularization is higher. It can be seen that a joint combat force system with elite combat forces as the main body is taking shape, which vividly shows the new achievements and new leaps of China’s military reform.

  Looking back at the Gobi smoke, focusing on the future battlefield. In just a few years, the People’s Army has accelerated its changes in the "new system time": the army’s mobile operations and three-dimensional offensive and defensive capabilities have been significantly enhanced, the navy has accelerated the transformation from offshore defense to offshore defense, the air force has accelerated the transformation to air and space integration, and both offensive and defensive capabilities have been enhanced. The Rocket Army has continuously strengthened its nuclear and conventional capabilities, and the strategic support forces have made every effort to promote the leap-forward development of key areas & HELIP; … With a new system, a new structure, a new pattern and a new look, a new combat force with a leaner scale, a more optimized structure and a more scientific organization is accelerating its rise.

  — — The command system is lean and efficient. Military Commission — War zone — The operational command system of the army started to operate, and the highest leadership and command of the army were concentrated in the CPC Central Committee and the Central Military Commission. Compared with the original four headquarters, the new Military Commission has a clearer path of command, construction, management and supervision, a more rational allocation of functions of decision-making, planning, implementation and evaluation, and a more focused strategic planning and macro management, and has truly become a staff organ, an executive organ and a service organ of the Military Commission. The focus of joint operational command is on the war zone, and the focus of army construction management is on the arms and services. The war zone specializes in fighting and is mainly engaged in joint operations, and the services take fighting to lead and seize construction as the battle. Implement the military in the main combat troops of the whole army — Brigade — The battalion system, the combat forces of various arms have been strengthened, the command level has been reduced, the operational command has become flatter and smoother, and the combat formation has become more comprehensive and flexible.

  — — The scale structure is constantly optimized. An exercise of crossing the sea and landing on the island started in the summer storm, and the Marines dressed in starry camouflage uniforms made a new appearance. In this round of reform, the Marine Corps, Air Force Airborne Forces, Rocket Forces, Strategic Support Forces, Joint Logistics Support Forces and many other new combat forces were newly adjusted and formed, and the active posts of the Navy and Rocket Forces were moderately increased. For the first time, the posts of the Army were reduced to less than 50% of the total posts of the whole army, and the proportion of services and arms and the proportion of officers and men were greatly improved; The establishment of organs at all levels has been reduced, the internal organs, leadership levels and personnel of organs at all levels have been reduced, and the staff of organs at or above the regimental level have been reduced by about a quarter; Elite combat forces such as aircraft carriers, large destroyers, strategic early warning aircraft, air assault and special operations have been strengthened, which has effectively promoted the transformation of the people’s army from quantitative scale to quality and efficiency.

  — — Joint war and joint training start a new game. The roar of air fighters, the array of ground missiles, and the galloping of warships at sea … … In early May, the Eastern Theater organized naval, air and naval forces to conduct normalized live-fire drills in a certain sea and airspace. After the reform and adjustment, the whole army’s concept of preparing for war and joint training has been further strengthened: the Central Military Commission has made great efforts to solve practical problems such as the theory and regulations of theater construction, and established a theater joint operation command system with "four beams and eight pillars"; Each theater plays the role of joint warfare and joint training hub, pulling joint training with realistic tasks, leading joint training with operational plans, inciting joint training with inspection and evaluation, and truly realizing joint training to lead and support joint training of arms and services; All services and arms closely meet the needs of joint combat capability in the theater, innovatively organize a series of service and arms campaign training, and jointly train with the service and arms capability training support system to continuously improve the contribution rate of winning the war.

  — — The policy system has become more perfect. On January 1, 2021, the "Provisional Regulations on the Administration of Officers in Active Service" and related supporting regulations were implemented; On March 31, 2022, the Provisional Regulations on Non-commissioned Officers, the Provisional Regulations on Conscripts and related supporting regulations were implemented … … Officers and men have called for reform, and a large number of laws and regulations that are in urgent need of reform and preparation for emergency have been formulated, promulgated or revised. Establish the professionalization system of military officers, optimize the treatment guarantee for military personnel, improve the policy system of military training, equipment development, logistics construction, military scientific research, national defense mobilization, etc. The system of military laws and regulations with China characteristics has been continuously improved, so that all factors conducive to the construction of combat effectiveness can compete with generate’s vitality, attract and gather outstanding talents to the maximum extent, and effectively stimulate the enthusiasm, initiative and creativity of officers and men in reforming and strengthening the army.

  China’s military reform has attracted worldwide attention. At the School of International Defence of National Defense University, middle and senior officers from multinational armies once held a round-table discussion entitled "Military Reform in China". A foreign military student said with emotion, "The military reform in China involves a wide range of issues, and it is a huge and complicated project. The smooth progress of the reform fully reflects the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s strong leadership. "

  Standing at the new historical tide and looking back at the magnificent picture of reforming and strengthening the army, we firmly believe that under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the supreme leader as the core, the people’s army in the middle stream will always maintain its determination to reform and the courage to overcome difficulties and create "new and greater miracles that will impress the world"!

Some "social fear" may really be a disease.

     ◎ Intern reporter Zhou Sitong

  A few days ago, Vestazine Company of the United States published in the official website that the drug PH94B developed by the company for "social phobia" reached the standard in the third phase of clinical trials. The researchers of the company said that they had tailored the treatment plan for some patients based on PH94B, and observed the overall reduction and improvement of patients’ social anxiety symptoms. The release of this news has aroused widespread concern of "social terrorists" everywhere.

  At present, "social fear" has become a popular word. Many young people label themselves as "social phobia" to express their discomfort in social situations. So, is "social fear" really a disease? Do you need medication? With these questions, the reporter of Science and Technology Daily interviewed relevant experts.

  Some pathological "social phobia" is also influenced by genetic factors.

  "Many times, what people call ‘ Social fear ’ It is not necessarily a real disease, but more of a psychological state. " Meng Fanqiang, deputy chief physician of Beijing Anding Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, said that, for example, it is common to feel nervous in certain scenes, and it is not a pathological "social phobia". The dividing line between "normal" and "disease" lies in the severity of symptoms and the influence of symptoms on life, work and study.

  When a person’s social anxiety symptoms make it impossible for him to carry out social activities normally, such as avoiding social places a lot, making him nervous at the thought of social scenes, and even fearing to meet others, etc., and similar symptoms last for more than 6 months, there may be pathological "social phobia".

  Social phobia in medical sense, also known as social anxiety disorder, is a mental disease. Its main feature is persistent fear of social situations or behaviors that may induce social interaction. Once faced with this situation, patients will have anxious physiological reactions. Although many patients are aware of this situation, because this physiological reaction is not controlled by patients, many patients will still try their best to avoid relevant social occasions, and some patients will even completely isolate themselves from society.

  Meng Fanqiang introduced that there are generally two causes of social anxiety disorder: the first is biological genetic factors, and more than 30% of patients with social anxiety disorder are affected by genetic factors; The second is the social and psychological factors, such as the bad growth environment in adolescence and repeated failures in social situations, which will distort people’s cognition of social behavior and thus produce persistent negative thinking.

  There are these reference standards for judging social anxiety disorder.

  Although the word "social phobia" has been widely known, in real life, people often can’t accurately judge their social psychological status, and often overestimate or underestimate their mental health. So, as an ordinary person, how can we judge whether we have social anxiety disorder?

  To solve this problem, lei fu, a national second-level psychological counselor and expert in mental health service for Qingdao Federation of Trade Unions, gave three criteria: whether the mood is too tense, whether there is abnormal behavior and whether there is obvious social function damage. Patients with social anxiety disorder are afraid of socializing for a long time, lasting for more than half a year; In the social environment, it is easy to be overly anxious and worried, and there will be symptoms such as trembling, stuttering, sweating, frequent urination and diarrhea; Try to avoid most social occasions, which obviously affects normal life and leads to the inability to complete study or work tasks. When these three kinds of obvious symptoms appear, it means that people may suffer from social anxiety disorder and need the help of professional doctors.

  "Because patients with social anxiety disorder lack normal interpersonal communication and the social network is weak, it is very difficult to fight the disease on their own. Therefore, after a preliminary assessment of their own state, patients need to go to the psychiatric department to ask a doctor for diagnosis. After the diagnosis of the disease, targeted treatment will be launched. " Lei fu said.

  Meng Fanqiang introduced that when the patient’s condition is serious, medication will be used clinically. Under the guidance of professional doctors, patients with severe social anxiety disorder can choose to take some anti-anxiety drugs. For patients with more serious symptoms and often in a state of anxiety, some anti-anxiety drugs that can be taken continuously will be used clinically. For patients with mild symptoms, you can take some short-acting drugs half an hour or an hour before starting social behavior to relieve anxiety.

  Rely on psychotherapy to get rid of social fear

  Although drug therapy can produce results quickly and obviously, it can not be ignored that improper use of drugs may produce side effects or dependence, which will cause further damage to patients. Therefore, for most patients with social anxiety disorder, besides drug therapy, psychological therapy is more considered in clinic.

  Lei fu told reporters that there are many psychotherapy methods for patients with social anxiety disorder, such as meditation and desensitization training, and the most mainstream method is cognitive behavioral therapy. Lei fu said that the biggest feature of patients with social anxiety disorder is excessive and unreasonable fear of social situations. Therefore, the focus of treatment is to eliminate this excessive and unreasonable fear.

  "For example, because a patient made a mistake in a social situation, he felt in trouble and thought that others would definitely have a negative evaluation of himself. Then in psychological intervention, we let him look for a ‘ Exception ’ For example, has he ever heard or seen someone else have a similar situation, but this person did not get a serious negative evaluation in the end. " Lei fu said that in general, patients will find that this situation is common in daily life. Under this guidance, patients will know that there are exceptions to everything, and their own unreasonable cognition will be gradually deconstructed. Once this cognition is deconstructed, the degree of catastrophic feeling produced by patients will be reduced.

  Zheng Shiyan, the former consultant of the Psychological Counseling Center of East China Normal University and the consultant of Hefei Shanyuan Psychological Counseling Center, said: "For social anxiety disorder, we naturally have to pay attention to it. But how to face and solve this problem still lies in the cognition of the parties and society about this psychological state. " He said that there are many factors that may lead to social anxiety disorder in today’s society, such as not being fully loved and not being fully accepted in childhood, which will make people feel that they are flawed and unworthy of being loved, and thus fear being criticized and denied. Therefore, in addition to turning to professionals, what patients with social anxiety disorder need to do is to take courage and be brave.

  interlinkage

  Online social interaction can’t replace real social interaction.

  Nowadays, more and more young people prefer to socialize online through online social media or online communities, and even many offline "social fear" young people have become very active online, with obvious contrast. So, can cyberspace really make people get rid of "social fear"?

  In this regard, Professor Yuan Hongmei, director of the Mental Health Education Research Center of the Student Affairs Department of Central South University of Forestry and Technology, once pointed out that online socialization is an extension and supplement of real socialization and cannot completely replace real socialization. Deliberately avoiding real social interaction is not conducive to physical and mental health.

  If you want to overcome "social fear", you should also communicate and interact with others in reality. People who are "socially fearful" can invite more friends to go to the movies, take part in outings, or just get together with others to chat, try to enjoy real life and feel the pleasure brought by real social interaction. Giving yourself positive psychological hints and bravely taking the first step are the key to getting rid of "social fear".

Promoting steady growth, adjusting structure and preventing risks with reform as the driving force —— Unswervingly accomplishing the objectives and tasks of economic and social development throughout

  Deepening reform in an all-round way is the fundamental driving force for promoting Chinese modernization.

  On July 30th, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over the the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee meeting to analyze and study the current economic situation and work. The meeting stressed: "We should take reform as the driving force to promote steady growth, adjust the structure and prevent risks, give full play to the traction role of economic system reform, and launch a number of mature and sensible reform measures in time."

  "this year is another important year for comprehensively deepening reform." In the face of arduous and complicated reform tasks, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader personally planned, personally deployed and personally promoted the comprehensive deepening of reform work, guided new practices and led new changes with new reform theories, made efforts to enhance the systematicness, integrity and synergy of reform, and made great efforts to make major institutional innovations. The reforms in key areas were carried out at a steady pace, stimulating the endogenous motivation and innovation vitality of the whole society, and providing strong support for the overall stable and steady progress of the national economy.

  The Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China built "four beams and eight pillars" to further comprehensively deepen reform and promote Chinese-style modernization, drew a magnificent, clear and concrete blueprint for reform, and released a strong signal of unswervingly holding high the banner of reform and opening up.

  "Reform must be re-planned, and it must be re-implemented." Under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, all localities and departments have further deepened reforms in an all-round way around promoting Chinese modernization, intensified macro-control, deepened innovation-driven development, deeply tapped the potential of domestic demand, constantly enhanced new kinetic energy and advantages, enhanced the vitality of business entities, stabilized market expectations, enhanced social confidence, enhanced sustained economic recovery, effectively guaranteed and improved people’s livelihood, maintained social stability, and unswervingly completed the objectives and tasks of economic and social development throughout the year.

  Increase the momentum through reform, persist in striving for progress while maintaining stability, focus on steady growth, and lay a solid foundation for economic development throughout the year.

  Reform is the driving force of development, and development is the purpose of reform.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "To further deepen the reform in an all-round way, we should highlight the problem orientation, focus on solving the problems of blocking points that restrict the construction of a new development pattern and promote high-quality development, the pain points and difficulties in the development environment and people’s livelihood, and the hot issues that are contrary to social fairness and justice, effectively prevent and resolve major risks, and constantly add momentum and vitality to economic and social development."

  Since the beginning of this year, in the face of the complicated and changeable domestic and international situation, all localities and departments have paid attention to the breakthrough and leading role of reform, actively introduced reform measures conducive to stabilizing growth, adjusting structure and preventing risks, and relied on reform to add momentum to development. China’s economy has continued to rebound to a good trend, and high-quality development has taken new steps.

  — — Expand profitable investment and give play to the traction role of reform.

  Machines in the CNC machining center roar, the intelligent production line runs at high speed, the mechanical arm moves up and down, left and right flexibly, and rows of hydraulic components flow off the production line in an orderly way … … After introducing three automatic production lines and updating 900 sets of high-end equipment such as CNC lathes, the production efficiency of Zhongwei Zhuote Hydraulic Technology Co., Ltd., located in Linxi County, Xingtai City, Hebei Province, has increased by 50%.

  In the first half of this year, the tax department of Xingtai City implemented the structural tax reduction and fee reduction policy in detail, so that Zhongwei Zhuote enjoyed the deduction of R&D expenses, the reduction of corporate income tax for high-tech enterprises, plus the deduction of value-added tax and export tax rebate. The tax reduction amount on the tax list is very considerable.

  The more investment, the more tax reduction, the positive pace of transformation and upgrading has been "rewarded" by the tax reform, and enterprises have increased their horsepower. "The tax incentives in the first half of the year were all invested in the research and development of the bent shaft hydraulic pump that is urgently needed in the current market, and an additional 20 million yuan was invested in new equipment to achieve full coverage of high-end CNC equipment this year." Han Shujuan, head of the company, said.

  A list of taxes and fees, recording the strength of reform.

  Comprehensively deepening reforms requires precise efforts. The reform of value-added tax has continued to deepen, the tax refund system has been continuously improved, and the structural tax reduction and fee reduction policy that focuses on supporting scientific and technological innovation and manufacturing development has been accelerated … … The burden reduction policy allows more enterprises to go into battle lightly. In April this year, the "Guidelines on Major Tax and Fee Preferential Policies for Supporting the Development of Manufacturing Industry in China" was issued, which provided a clear list for manufacturing business entities and helped them to better enjoy preferential tax and fee policies.

  Deepen reform in an all-round way and pay attention to system integration. China pays great attention to "hard investment" and "soft construction" as a whole, and combines project construction with supporting reforms. It not only compiles perfect plans, strengthens project management, creates a number of landmark projects, but also optimizes system supply, and breaks deep-seated obstacles with reform methods and innovative measures.

  The deeper the reform, the more attention should be paid to coordination. Focusing on stabilizing expectations, growth and employment, China has strengthened the countercyclical and cross-cyclical adjustment of macro policies, strengthened the coordination of fiscal, monetary, employment, industrial, regional, scientific and technological, environmental protection and other policies, incorporated non-economic policies into the consistency assessment of macro policy orientation, strengthened policy coordination, ensured concerted efforts and formed synergies, fully mobilized the enthusiasm of business entities, stimulated the endogenous motivation of economic development, and formed synergies to jointly promote high-quality development. In the first half of the year, investment in fixed assets increased by 3.9% year-on-year, of which investment in manufacturing increased by 9.5%, which promoted steady growth of investment, structural optimization and improvement of quality and efficiency, laying a solid foundation for steady growth.

  — — Stimulate potential consumption and make good use of the key variable of reform.

  Open and log in to the mobile phone application of Zheli Office, enter the item of "Registration of Self-employed Workers (Flexible Employees)", and click "Online Processing" … … In just 3 minutes, Ms. Wang, a domestic hourly worker working in Dongyang City, Zhejiang Province, completed the insurance procedures for flexible employees.

  A social security bill, recording the temperature of reform.

  Consumption is the "main engine" that drives economic growth. The reform of the social security system has firmly grasped the bottom line of people’s livelihood, making residents more daring to spend and willing to spend. The income distribution system has been further improved, and social security systems for flexible employees, migrant workers and new employment forms have been continuously improved in various localities, and the adjustment mechanism for income redistribution has been strengthened. At the same time, the business environment is constantly optimized to stabilize employment and income by promoting the development of small and medium-sized enterprises and individual and private economies & HELIP; … A series of reform measures have promoted "lowering" and "expanding". In the first half of the year, the per capita disposable income of the national residents actually increased by 5.3%, which was basically in sync with the growth of GDP, and the per capita consumption expenditure actually increased by 6.7%.

  Residents’ income grew steadily and their consumption level continued to improve. In the first half of the year, final consumption expenditure boosted GDP growth by 3.0 percentage points. The long-term mechanism for expanding consumption has been gradually improved, and the basic role of consumption in economic development has been further enhanced.

  Expand consumption to do "addition" and limit consumption to do "subtraction". "No new automobile purchase restriction measures shall be added in all regions, and the automobile purchase restriction measures shall be optimized according to local conditions in the regions where the purchase restriction has been implemented" and "Allow relevant cities to cancel or reduce the housing purchase restriction policy" … … Restrictive measures have been continuously reduced, which has "loosened" residents’ consumption.

  — — Accelerate the cultivation of new kinetic energy of foreign trade and release the development dividend of reform.

  A remanufactured engine, the cost of which is only 60% of that of the new engine, was successfully cleared and transported to Volvo Construction Equipment (China) Co., Ltd. in Pudong New Area, saving 40% of the cost for the enterprise — — China’s first import of remanufactured products landed in Shanghai. Breaking the import restrictions on used and second-hand mobile phones, at present, some pilot free trade zones have relaxed the import of 62 kinds of remanufactured products such as automobile engines, boosting the new trend of green trade.

  A customs declaration, recording the depth of reform.

  Reform should be deepened, and opening up needs to be deepened and broadened. With the relaxation of the import of remanufactured products and a series of new achievements, the first batch of pilot measures for connecting the Pilot Free Trade Zone with international high-standard rules have been fully implemented, which has led to a steady increase in the quality of foreign trade. In the first half of the year, the total import and export value of goods trade increased by 6.1% year-on-year, a record high in the same period of history.

  Market access reform enhances the "magnetic attraction" to foreign investment. The negative list of service trade "goes" to the whole country, completely cancels the restrictions on foreign investment access in the manufacturing sector, and promotes the orderly expansion and opening up of telecommunications, Internet, medical care and other fields … … Market access was further relaxed, allowing more foreign companies to share the dividends of China’s reform and opening up. In the first half of the year, the number of newly established foreign-funded enterprises was nearly 27,000.

  Since the beginning of this year, "taking system construction as the main line", various reforms have strengthened coordination, the construction of a high-standard market system has been steadily advanced, the system and mechanism for market-oriented allocation of factors have been improved, the formation of a unified national market has been accelerated, all kinds of ownership economies have participated in market competition more fairly, and market vitality has flowed fully, laying a solid foundation for achieving the expected goals of economic development throughout the year.

  Deepen reform in an all-round way, with a clear direction and a clear road. "It is necessary to continue to work hard in an all-round way to make the reform measures comprehensively cover the outstanding problems that need to be solved to promote Chinese modernization; We must continue to use real strength in deepening, highlight the focus of the economic system, and strive to break down deep-seated institutional and institutional obstacles and structural contradictions. "

  The Ministry of Finance will speed up the improvement of the budget system and the tax system, and use precious financial funds in the critical areas of development; The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security will improve the labor rights protection system that adapts to flexible employment and new employment forms, and create a fair employment environment; The Ministry of Commerce will improve the high-level opening-up system and mechanism, enlarge the open cake and lengthen the list of cooperation … … In the second half of the year, relying on reform and opening up to enhance the endogenous driving force for development, all localities and departments have made a good list of tasks and launched a number of reform measures that are mature and sensible, giving birth to strong momentum for unswervingly fulfilling the goals and tasks of economic and social development throughout the year.

  Add vitality through reform, persist in promoting stability through progress, vigorously optimize the structure, and shape new development momentum and new advantages.

  The reform trend is strong, and the tide of innovation is even stronger.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "To develop new quality productive forces, we must further deepen reform in an all-round way and form a new type of production relationship that is compatible with it. It is necessary to deepen the reform of the economic system and the scientific and technological system, focus on opening up the blocking points that constrain the development of new quality productive forces, establish a high-standard market system, and innovate the allocation of production factors so that all kinds of advanced and high-quality production factors can flow smoothly to the development of new quality productive forces. "

  The "Decision" of the Third Plenary Session of the Twentieth CPC Central Committee put forward: "Improve the system and mechanism of developing new quality productive forces according to local conditions."

  Since the beginning of this year, all localities and departments have anchored to "develop new quality productivity according to local conditions", accelerated the transformation mode, adjusted the structure, improved quality and increased efficiency, continued to deepen the structural reform on the supply side, accelerated the construction of new production relations that are compatible with new quality productivity, constantly opened up new fields and new tracks for development, constantly shaped and developed new kinetic energy and new advantages, and promoted Chinese modernization with high-quality development.

  — — Strengthen the supply of new fields and new track systems, and enhance the innovation power through economic system reform.

  In Xilihu International Science and Education City, Nanshan District, Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province, the laboratory and production line are very close. Nanshan District has set up a proof-of-concept platform here to help technicians cross the laboratory to the "first mile" of marketization.

  "Proof of concept helps us to transform scientific research results in a small scale first, and improve the success rate of subsequent substantive transformation. The platform provides accurate assistance around the whole chain of proof of concept, pilot-scale ripening and achievement transformation, not only for seed funds, but also for docking resources." Cai Chao, founder of Nanke Hegu Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. said that the platform helped the company to accelerate the industrialization of hydrogen production catalyst technology.

  Focusing on "strengthening the dominant position of scientific and technological innovation of enterprises", all localities and departments have made great efforts to open up the blocking points that constrain enterprise innovation, innovate the allocation methods of production factors, and let all kinds of advanced and high-quality production factors flow smoothly to all kinds of business entities, so that the "tangible hand" of the government and the "invisible hand" of the market can jointly cultivate and drive new quality productivity.

  The Science and Technology Department of Henan Province introduced measures to vigorously cultivate innovative leading enterprises and enhance industry consolidation’s ability; Fujian Province promotes the popularization and application of the first set of technical equipment; Around the three leading industries of integrated circuit, biomedicine and artificial intelligence, Shanghai has set up an industrial investment parent fund with a total scale of 100 billion yuan … … Reform promotes the deep integration of innovation chain’s industrial chain, capital chain and talent chain, and promotes scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation to go hand in hand. In the first half of the year, the added value of China’s high-tech manufacturing industry above designated size increased by 8.7% year-on-year.

  — — Transform the institutional advantage into the competitive advantage of science and technology, and the reform of science and technology system stimulates the vitality of innovation.

  China’s first "ground space station" passed the acceptance test, with a total of seven C919 large passenger planes delivered, the Shenzhen-China channel officially opened for trial operation, and the Chang ‘e-6 realized the sampling return on the back of the moon, successfully building the first international 6G test network integrating communication and intelligence … … Since the beginning of this year, major scientific and technological achievements have emerged one after another, big countries have frequently "upgraded their weapons", and the level of self-reliance and self-improvement in science and technology has continued to improve, injecting new kinetic energy into accelerating the development of new quality productive forces. This is inseparable from the support of scientific and technological system reform.

  Improve the new national system, strengthen the construction of national strategic scientific and technological forces, and optimize the positioning and layout; Establish a mechanism for the overall arrangement and use of central financial science and technology funds, "set tasks according to needs and set funds according to tasks", and strengthen the overall layout of science and technology resources; Empower scientific researchers with greater decision-making power of technical route, control of scientific research funds and resource scheduling, and stimulate scientific and technological personnel to innovate and create vitality … … From top-level design to specific measures, the reform of science and technology system has been deepened, removing fences and cultivating soil for scientific and technological innovation. As of June this year, the effective number of domestic invention patents in China reached 4.425 million.

  — — Untie the rope that binds scientific and technological innovation, reform the talent mechanism and build a good innovation ecology.

  The classroom is also a laboratory, which builds a bridge between outstanding students and technical talents.

  This year, Song Junteng, an undergraduate from Shenzhen University of Technology, found his future research direction by participating in the research group of the Institute of Digital Studies, Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences: "The school helps students enter the laboratory, and the integration of production and education, science and education, makes me clearly focus on data."

  More and more colleges and universities cooperate with scientific research institutes to promote the reform of the system and mechanism of educational science and technology talents, so that talents, the first resource, can fully flow in and better transform China’s educational advantages and talent advantages into development advantages and competitive advantages. The trinity of education, science and technology and talents has promoted more outstanding young scientific and technological talents to take the lead. As of March this year, more than 1,100 national key R&D projects have been led by young scientists under the age of 40, which has reached more than 20% of the total.

  The depth of reform is the time when innovation is surging.

  The transformation of traditional industries has accelerated. In Hunan, through the comprehensive application of cutting-edge technologies such as intelligent scheduling, industrial AI, digital twinning and industrial Internet, an excavator can be produced every 6 minutes on average.

  Emerging industries are booming. In Shanghai, drones have increased the efficiency of take-away distribution by 40%, and the low-altitude economy has "taken off" to empower all walks of life.

  Accelerate the layout of industries in the future. In Anhui, the third-generation independent superconducting quantum computer "Benyuanwukong" was launched, and this computer has successfully completed 250,000 global quantum computing tasks.

  … … … …

  Traditional industries live because of "newness" and the economic structure advances because of "newness". Firmly grasping the "bull’s nose" of scientific and technological innovation, opening up a new development track with new quality productivity, enhancing new development momentum, shaping new development advantages, and striving to win the initiative in future development will provide a strong impetus for unswervingly completing the goals and tasks of economic and social development throughout the year.

  Solve problems through reform, coordinate high-quality development and high-level safety, and prevent and resolve various risk challenges.

  Security is the premise of development, and development is the guarantee of security.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader profoundly pointed out: "Insist on overall planning development and security, insist on paying equal attention to development and security, and realize the benign interaction between high-quality development and high-level security."

  The "Decision" of the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee clearly stated: "Deal with the major relations such as economy and society, government and market, efficiency and fairness, vitality and order, development and security".

  The summer grain has been harvested again, and the energy security guarantee ability and the toughness of the industrial chain supply chain have been improved, keeping the bottom line of not having systematic risks … … Since the beginning of this year, all localities and departments have further deepened reforms in an all-round way, and used more perfect systems to prevent and resolve risks and effectively meet challenges.

  — — Secure the "two rice bowls" of grain and energy and build a solid foundation for risk prevention.

  Food security is the biggest thing in the country.

  On March 19th, during the spring ploughing season, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came to Xiejiapu Town, Dingcheng District, Changde City, Hunan Province. Dai Hong, a big grain grower, said that the net income of farming last year was more than 550,000 yuan, and the government subsidized more than 70,000 yuan. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader was very happy: "Grain farmers can’t suffer losses, and they have money to earn, so they have the enthusiasm to grow grain."

  On June 11th, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over the fifth meeting of the 20th Central Committee for Comprehensively Deepening Reform, which deliberated and adopted important documents to improve the income guarantee mechanism for grain farmers and the interest compensation mechanism for major grain producing areas.

  Cultivated land is the lifeblood of food security. Since the beginning of this year, policies and financial guarantees have been continuously strengthened, and the mechanisms for construction, acceptance and management of high-standard farmland have been continuously improved. In the first quarter of this year, China completed the construction, transformation and upgrading of high-standard farmland area of about 10 million mu, laying a solid foundation for winning the annual grain harvest.

  At the same time, through comprehensively deepening reforms, industrial "food" — — The energy "rice bowl" is also more secure. Since the beginning of this year, the construction of a unified national electricity market system has been accelerated, and more than 60% of the electricity consumption of the whole society has been market-oriented. The oil and gas market system has initially taken shape, and the medium and long-term coal contract system and market price formation mechanism have been continuously improved; The draft energy law has entered the deliberation process of the National People’s Congress, and the revision of the electricity law, coal law and renewable energy law is progressing in an orderly manner … … The dividend of energy reform has been continuously released, inspiring all kinds of business entities to work together to promote high-quality energy development.

  — — Promote the safety of industrial chain supply chain and improve the level of risk response.

  This year, the first prototype of a 300 MW F-class heavy-duty gas turbine independently developed by China rolled off the production line, which has played a significant role in promoting the progress of basic disciplines and industrial technology development of gas turbines in China.

  Core technologies accelerate breakthroughs and help the industrial chain supply chain to be self-controllable. China has continuously improved the new national system, made overall plans to tackle key core technology problems, improved the development system and mechanism of key industrial chains, promoted technological research and application of achievements throughout the chain, and accelerated the development of key industrial chains such as integrated circuits and industrial mother machines.

  Backbone enterprises are constantly emerging, and the supply chain of the traction industry chain is developing and growing. The Law on the Promotion of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises has been revised, the Regulations on the Protection of Payment for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises has been promulgated, the gradient training mechanism for high-quality enterprises has been accelerated, and the golden signboard of "specialization and novelty" has been further polished, making more high-quality enterprises stand out and become the leader in the high-quality development of industrial chain supply chain. By the end of June, China had cultivated more than 140,000 specialized and innovative SMEs.

  — — Properly handle the risks of real estate and local debt, and enhance the ability to resolve risks.

  Since the beginning of this year, policies have been made in the same direction, governance has been coordinated, and positive progress has been made in resolving risks in key areas.

  The work of ensuring people’s livelihood and stability in Baojiaolou continued to advance. Strengthen the supervision of pre-sale funds and establish the coordination mechanism of urban real estate financing … … 297 cities at prefecture level and above have established the coordination mechanism of urban real estate financing, and commercial banks have approved the loan amount of "white list" projects of 1.3 trillion yuan.

  Local debt risks have been further resolved. All localities have continuously improved the long-term mechanism of debt conversion. The People’s Bank of China has instructed financial institutions to rationally use debt restructuring and replacement in accordance with the principles of marketization and rule of law, and make classified measures to resolve the stock debt risks of financing platforms and strictly control incremental debts.

  "Adhere to the concept of system", promote high-level safety with high-quality development, ensure high-quality development with high-level safety, and promote the dynamic balance and complement each other with reform; "Insist on problem orientation", face the risk problems in all fields directly, go ahead with the problems and focus on the problem reform, and enhance the pertinence and effectiveness of the reform … … Firmly grasp the objectives and principles of comprehensively deepening reform, make overall plans for high-quality development and high-level security, achieve new results by solving difficult problems through reform, and promote the stability and long-term development of China’s economic giant.

  "With the accelerated implementation of the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, various policies have been effective, and the foundation for promoting sustained economic recovery will continue to be consolidated and laid solid. We have the conditions, ability, confidence and confidence to overcome the problems in development and the challenges in transformation, and complete the annual goals and tasks with high quality." Zhao Chenxi, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, said.

  Hit the water in the middle stream, and those who are eager to advance; When people get halfway up the mountain, only the brave win.

  Guided by the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the New Era, we should further unify our thoughts and actions with the CPC Central Committee’s judgment and decision-making on the economic situation, cherish a good start, continue to take advantage of the situation, firmly grasp the primary task of high-quality development, take comprehensive deepening reform as the fundamental driving force for promoting Chinese modernization, and persist in solving problems in development and coping with risks and challenges on the way forward through reform and opening up. We will make overall plans to promote deep-level reform and high-level opening-up, resolutely get rid of the ideological concepts and institutional mechanisms that hinder the promotion of Chinese modernization, promote the better adaptation of production relations and productivity, superstructure and economic foundation, state governance and social development, roll up our sleeves and work hard, and we will certainly be able to continuously consolidate and strengthen the economic recovery to a good trend and unswervingly accomplish the objectives and tasks of economic and social development throughout the year.

North America Watch Why can the government only sigh when gun violence is rampant in the United States?

  The proliferation of gun violence has become a cliche in the United States. According to the data of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there were nearly 40,000 people who died at gunpoint in the United States in 2019, of which one-third died of murder and nearly two-thirds died of suicide. In addition, the proliferation of firearms will cause about 115,000 people to be disabled in the United States every year. In contrast, since the US military entered Afghanistan in 2001, the death toll of the US military there is 2,312.

  According to the report of American Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), the annual economic loss caused by gun injuries in the United States is about $300 billion, and the GDP of the United States is nearly $21 trillion in 2020. That is to say, the annual economic loss caused by guns is equivalent to 1.3% to 1.5% of the GDP of the United States. Putting this proportion into the huge economic aggregate of the United States, the absolute value is still very amazing: it is equivalent to Americans destroying a Finnish economy every year because of shooting (Finland’s GDP will be 300 billion US dollars in 2020).

  It can be said that the severity of gun violence in the United States is unique among developed countries. Therefore, the issue of gun control has become a jargon in the debate of the American Congress. However, despite the fierce quarrels among lawmakers, they often start this endless debate whenever there is a large-scale shooting incident. However, in the past 50 years, there has been no real substantive decision on gun control and solving the problem of gun proliferation.

  So, what makes it so difficult for the United States to control guns?

  The reason why Americans have the right to hold guns is a bit roundabout.

  First of all, we must clarify a concept, that is, the argument that people are free to hold guns in the Second Amendment of the US Constitution, which is emphasized by many gun-holding organizations, looks more like an absurd historical "myth" today.

  In 1791, the US Congress passed the Second Amendment, saying that "a well-disciplined militia is necessary for the security of a free country; The people’s right to hold and carry weapons shall not be violated. " The reason for enacting this amendment is that holding guns by citizens will help prevent the expansion of the power of the federal government and prevent the government from imposing tyranny on the people.

  It is true that many armed militiamen joined the struggle against British "tyranny" when the North American colonies became independent, but these militiamen with no military organization and no logistical support could not resist the attack of the British regular army for a long time. Even many militiamen joined the war of independence with the mentality of firing a few shots and sneaking home to continue farming if they failed.

  The American War of Independence can be won, thanks to the French navy’s unprecedented defeat of the British Royal Navy, which has always been invincible in the 18th century. As a result, the British main force entrenched in Yorktown was cut off, and the commander-in-chief cornwallis was forced to surrender to the French army and the Continental Army led by Washington. The powerful "armed militia" is the "founding myth" of the United States, and it is the regular navy and army that really overturns the British.

  △ In the Chesapeake Bay naval battle, the French fleet successfully prevented the Royal Navy from rushing to help the British main force stationed in Yorktown, thus controlling the sea power in the theater, causing the British army to declare its surrender after running out of ammunition, thus ending the American War of Independence.

  Moreover, individuals with guns can never compete with the state machine, and the US federal government does not hesitate to use military power far beyond the firepower of the people’s guns to carry out armed repression. During the American Civil War, a large-scale anti-conscription riot broke out in new york, and the American government responded with artillery. Some even said that warships moored in new york also participated in the suppression of the rioters. Unlike the revolvers commonly used by rioters at that time, the heavy weapons of the army were not available to the people at all, and even if they were held, they could not afford to maintain them.

△ In 1863, there was a conscription riot in New York, and the army used artillery to suppress the participants in the riot. (Source: new york Times)

  In the 21st century, with the rapid progress of military science and technology, the firepower gap between the army and the people holding guns is even greater. Not only that, since the Bush era, the US military has also transferred surplus military equipment to local police through the so-called "Project 1033", and the US special forces have trained police officers, which has made the American police a veritable paramilitary organization. Under such circumstances, the American people also know that there is no good end to engaging in large-scale armed riots. Therefore, when the new york police made a move, the crowd dispersed.

  After this year’s farce of "Occupy Capitol Hill", no one has stood up with guns and opposed the US government’s nationwide night fall.

  The biggest beneficiary of people holding guns is the southern slave owners.

  In fact, I’m afraid that the reason why the Second Amendment to the US Constitution was passed that year was not that members of Congress really believed that people holding guns was conducive to resisting the government’s "tyranny".

  At that time, it was not long after the Shays Uprising (1786-1787) against the Massachusetts authorities, and the argument that people could not be trusted was still popular among the political elites in the United States at that time. In fact, the biggest beneficiary of allowing people to hold guns is the slave owners in the south.

  When the United States was founded, slave farming was the most obvious private industry that relied on guns. In order to prevent slaves from rioting and fleeing, unofficial "slave patrol" system appeared in southern States, which is also one of the origins of American police system. According to the logic of slave owners, these slave patrols are also "well-disciplined militia" mentioned in the Second Amendment to the Constitution. The existence of slavery also explains why the amendment emphasizes that "well-disciplined militia" is crucial to national security, because only whites could join the militia at that time. Emphasizing that "militia" owns guns, not individuals, can exclude blacks from the ranks of gun owners and realize the absolute superiority of whites over blacks in force. At that time, the slave uprising in the French colony of Haiti was in full swing, and black slaves slaughtered a large number of white slave owners, which seriously stimulated American slave owners.

  It can be said that it is an inevitable interest proposition of these people to emphasize the gun support right of white militia.

  The Paradox between Gun Control and Law

  At this point, we can see that the Second Amendment to the American Constitution is out of touch with the development of the times, and the basis of legislation at that time seems to be contrary to the basic moral standards of mankind today. This amendment is also the most fundamental legal reason for the inability to control guns in the United States today.

  However, as a basic law, the American Constitution can hardly be amended again. According to the current law, amending the Constitution requires at least two-thirds of the members of the Senate and the House of Representatives, respectively. However, in the Congress where politics and lobbying prevailed in Jin and Yuan Dynasties, lobbying organizations, represented by the National Rifle Association of the United States and reflecting the interests of various arms dealers, have long held key members firmly in their own hands. Not to mention amending the constitution, any attempt to tighten gun control at the state and federal levels will be strongly and effectively stopped by the Rifle Association.

△ The National Rifle Association (NRA) is one of the most important political lobbying groups in the United States. (Source: NRA official website)

  Not only Congress, but also the judiciary has played a very disgraceful role in the problem of gun proliferation in the United States.

  Compared with long-barreled firearms, pistols are more secretive, which is beneficial for gunmen to engage in large-scale shooting by surprise, and is also very suitable for suicide. Therefore, the city government of Washington, the capital of the United States, once attempted to completely ban the possession of pistols. However, in 2008, the United States Supreme Court ruled that the actions of the Washington municipal government were unconstitutional, and at the same time reinterpreted the Second Amendment, confirming that the right to own guns was not limited to militia, but included all individuals. Since the ruling of the Federal Supreme Court is final, it means that gun control efforts in many states have been wasted.

  The game of gun control and gun prohibition

  Of course, the justices of the Federal Supreme Court did not forget to show their "neutrality" in their judgments, claiming that guns and gun rights still need to be managed by someone. Nice words, but how to "manage" guns is a mess that puzzles American politicians.

  Due to the federal nature of the United States, the responsibility for formulating specific gun management policies is shared by the federal government and local governments. The federal government is responsible for issuing gun sales licenses and conducting background checks on gun buyers to confirm that they have no criminal record before they can legally hold guns. Local governments are responsible for formulating specific provisions for carrying guns in public places. It seems that governments at all levels have a clear division of labor, but there are many loopholes in actual operation.

  First of all, not everyone needs a federal license to sell guns. If they are selling guns in their own homes, online or at gun exhibitions, they do not need a federal license to sell guns for long-term profit. Because enterprises and individuals with sales licenses have the responsibility to inform the federal government of the identity of gun buyers so that they can conduct background checks, this means that when sellers without licenses sell guns, the federal government cannot investigate the identity of buyers. According to a study conducted by Harvard University in 2017, one-fifth of the gun transactions in the United States have not undergone background checks.

  Second, since gun ownership has become a "natural human right", only a few states require residents to apply for a gun license. Therefore, most of the time, the government passively screens the legitimate owners when the gun trade takes place. Except for those States that need to have a license to buy guns, local governments can’t actively screen gun owners or train gun owners in the code of conduct.

  Third, even if a comprehensive background check system is implemented nationwide, as many gun control groups now support, to plug the loopholes that guns can’t be investigated during gun exhibitions or online purchases, or to implement a nationwide gun purchase license system, it can’t solve a core problem, that is, because guns in the United States have been flooding for a long time, a large number of criminals illegally buy guns through the black market instead of through formal channels. This means that no matter how many gun control policies are formulated by the government, as long as the United States can’t implement a strict national ban on guns, people who want to own guns always have ways to deal with it. All gun control policies instead of banning guns are aimed at preventing gentlemen and not villains.

  Why is there no solution to the rampant gun violence?

  The problem of gun proliferation in the United States is a typical institutional case. The revision of the Constitution, the legislation of Congress, the interpretation of the law by the courts, the separation of powers between the central and local governments, lobbying and the intervention of interest organizations, almost all kinds of gloomy aspects in American politics are reflected in the gun issue. To solve the problem of gun violence in the United States, I’m afraid what we need is not to tinker with a certain law, but to thoroughly reform the system of representative federalism with three powers, which is full of ills. But this is completely impossible to achieve in the United States today, so we can only let it go.

  Now, Americans are completely numb to large-scale gun incidents. Since the beginning of this year, there have been nearly 250 large-scale shooting incidents that have caused more than three casualties. Gun control, like other stubborn diseases that cannot be solved because of the American system, has become a tool used by politicians to attack each other. The more quarrelling, the less means to solve it properly, and the gun violence will continue.

Interview with Director Zheng Xiaolong | Creation should tell the story of "people"

The closing battle report of TV series The Story of Xingfu came one after another. After Empresses in the Palace, who has been tossed and turned for 11 years, Zheng Xiaolong brought an excellent work with both reputation and popularity.

Few directors can expand the audience to all ages like Zheng Xiaolong, so that groups of different generations can find sympathetic emotions and characters in his works. Similarly, few directors can make their works last forever, constantly adding new audiences to the original basic disc, and their works are always new, always keeping the pulse and temperature of the same rhythm with the times.

Zheng Xiaolong, born in 1953, has been directing since the early 1990s. His works in different periods, such as Peking Man in new york, Golden Wedding, Empresses in the Palace, legend of miyue, Red Sorghum, Emergency Doctor, Meritorious Service, etc., have almost covered audiences after 60, 70, 80, 90 and 00, and he is a well-deserved national director. At the same time, he is also a literary and art worker who is very concerned about how individuals survive in the changing times. Under the focus of the camera, they are all concrete "people", and the "play meat" filled in the drama framework is also specific and subtle details. He always believes in a foothold. "Emotion and truth are common, and I mainly tell the story of’ people’."

The Story of Xingfu: Dead Water and Breaking.

The realistic TV series The Story of Xingfu, directed by Zheng Xiaolong and starring Zhao Liying and Liu Wei, has closed recently. As a long-lost rural theme work in the domestic drama market, the first broadcast of the drama set off a viewing craze. The prime-time TV live broadcast attracted the top two attention, and the online broadcast was less than an hour. The market share of the whole network drama reached the top, and the real-time broadcast market accounted for 11.46%. At the same time, because of the portrayal of realistic contradictions and the exposure of human weaknesses, it has repeatedly caused heated discussions on social platforms such as Weibo. In the whole broadcast process in The Story of Xingfu, it occupied the top spot in the lighthouse TV drama feature broadcast market for 22 consecutive days, and ranked third in the 2022 TV drama feature broadcast before closing. These steady and steady data all show the amazing national popularity of this work.

The Story of Xingfu was adapted from Chen Yuanbin’s novel The Legend of Autumn Chrysanthemum. At the beginning, Zheng Xiaolong took a fancy to this story. "It mainly tells the awakening of a woman’s self-awareness and legal awareness. Under the environment of emphasizing the rule of law, literary and artistic creation is of certain significance to the construction of the awareness of the rule of law. I think it is very good." Wanjiazhuang, as a famous star village with ten miles and eight townships, has reached a certain level in material accumulation. However, due to its inherent small-scale peasant ideology and clan consciousness, this village has become a "stagnant water" and gradually has the trend of "one word at a time". "So the theme of our story is to hope that people will pay more attention to the construction of spiritual civilization and legal civilization after the completion of material civilization construction. Because there is no progress in spiritual civilization and the rule of law, this’ rich’ will not grow. "

And the heroine’s happiness is the "breaker" of Wanjiazhuang’s stagnant water.

In the initial casting stage, Zheng Xiaolong decided to let Zhao Liying play He Happiness. "We worked together in the filming of Golden Wedding in 2006, and she played many rebellious third daughters in it. She was so stubborn. Moreover, she is born in the countryside and is no stranger to rural life and the state of farmers. "

Zheng Xiaolong believes that the character He Happiness comes with a "halo". Of course, "halo" is not an illogical protagonist halo, but "He Happiness has a basic personality, and she has a simple sense of justice, fairness and equality." As a rural woman with a low education level, she was so happy that her sister was married. She insisted on an apology and was pointed at by the villagers. However, Wanjiazhuang, whose clan consciousness is solidified, needs such a foreigner to break the deadlock. "Because she doesn’t understand the process of the village construction and the prestige of Wanshantang, the village party secretary, she just thinks that I can apologize if I am wrong, but you have to admit it if you are wrong. You have to apologize."

He Xingfu threw a bench over and smashed the head of Wan Chuanjia, the son of the village party secretary, which prevented the marriage and caused trouble. His in-laws were anxious to apologize to the village party secretary, and her husband, brother-in-law and sister-in-law were also wronged and anxious. On the other hand, Zheng Xiaolong used a series of long shots to show the attitude of He Happiness as a new wife. She changed her clothes, tied up her long hair, skillfully picked vegetables, and packed things for cooking. When her husband questioned that she was still in the mood to eat, her attitude was also obvious: the sky fell and she had to eat, and then she went to seek justice after eating.

"Maybe the audience will be more worried about saying that female stars or famous actresses can’t get down and dress up ugly, but in reality, it can’t be glamorous. You work in the countryside and your daughter-in-law is running a family. You have to be energetic, right?" Zheng Xiaolong admired Zhao Liying’s energy. "If she didn’t understand it, she couldn’t shoot it. She didn’t rely on skill, but brought her true nature in, so you will feel particularly comfortable when she performs."

Since the launch of The Story of Xingfu, many viewers’ comments and barrage have been related to "grieve" and "bring your own antihypertensive drugs when watching the drama". The initial marriage-making incidents, land disputes and compensation for land expropriation, including the protagonist’s experience from the countryside to the city, are all full of realistic entanglements. The material construction of Wanjiazhuang Star Village is indeed rich enough, but the popularization of rule of law awareness and spiritual civilization construction seems to be uncivilized. The main line of the story is how to build the rule of law on the basis of material construction. Happiness is the main thread of this torrent, and her personal progress and growth is also a metaphor for the follow-up of rural spiritual civilization and the rule of law. The anger of netizens, to a certain extent, is also an affirmation that the content of the series is close to real life. Zheng Xiaolong also recognized this point. "We must conform to this creative attitude of realism. Now telling rural stories is to conform to the changes and cognition in the countryside and have a life atmosphere."

At the end of the story, He Xingfu promoted the construction of ecological civilization in Wanjiazhuang, developed environmental protection tourism industry, controlled sewage treatment, broke the original clan pattern, popularized the concept of legal system, and became a new generation of rural revitalization leaders. Behind the destruction of this stagnant pool is not only Zheng Xiaolong’s thinking about the current rural spiritual civilization and legal system construction, but also his inherent sense of responsibility as a literary and art worker. "Creating this thing makes me feel that I can say something and express something that I think is meaningful." He wants to tell the story of a rural woman’s growth, and reflect the fate and struggle of thousands of ordinary people in Qian Qian. This concern and gaze on the little people has always been a humanistic feeling of Zheng Xiaolong’s social responsibility.

02

"Feminine consciousness" not only represents women.

The Story of Xingfu has been at the forefront from the beginning to the end, and the whole network urged him to get a happy divorce and start a career. In addition to the characters and plots in the play, there is also director Zheng Xiaolong who was brought to the hot search by real-time comments.

In fact, it’s not long since he was widely discussed by netizens and audiences last time-during the period when the epidemic was banned at the beginning of the year, Empresses in the Palace became a drama and background sound for many people. Since its launch 11 years ago, the ideological trend has changed, the concept has been updated, and the audience has iterated. However, the popularity and discussion of this drama have lasted for a long time. Under the "study" of the younger generation of netizens, an independent "Zhen Xue" has even been derived, which is specially used to analyze characters, plots and subtle scenes, including the production of expression packs and network hotspots.

However, in the eyes of Zheng Xiaolong, who is nearly 70 years old, these new things and fragmented interception analysis are all "distant" and he doesn’t understand them. In the 22nd year of the new century, he still maintains his own work rhythm and relatively "old-school" habits. Only when talking about creation will the chatterbox open, "What are the 100 questions? I can’t even answer it. TV plays and movies are montage art, and they are flowing pictures, not watched frame by frame. When I shoot, I will not think that this drama will have such a big impact in reality. "

From Empresses in the Palace’s "Red Sorghum" and "legend of miyue" to The Story of Xingfu, several representative works of Zheng Xiaolong are all based on the clue of women’s growth and awakening, and are completed by the whole construction of the characters, so as to criticize and convey his inner thoughts and voices. However, the growth of women, or the awakening of gender-limited consciousness, is not that he deliberately caters to the creative standards of the market. Instead of telling the story with a specific group, he chose a reference sample to tell the story of everyone in the society, age and living environment where the sample is located. "Emotion and reason are common, and I mainly tell the story of’ people’."

Empresses in the Palace stills

For example, Empresses in the Palace criticized the feudal and backward marriage system. Zheng Xiaolong said, "I discussed this matter repeatedly before filming, and I told the media that it was critical. But after it was broadcast, many people said that it was a matter of the workplace. I was so dizzy. I never thought that the workplace would be like this." He recalled that mentality more than ten years ago. "At that time, for a long time, it seemed that everyone thought the harem was beautiful and luxurious. Many girls wanted to cross into the harem and run to be concubines for the emperor." "The emperor is a big stallion, marriage in this case, how can you have a single-minded emotion? Impossible. "

The realistic theme does not mean that you must shoot modern dramas, which is also Zheng Xiaolong’s consistent thinking. "You can also shoot historical stories with a realistic attitude. The theme and your attitude are two different things." What Empresses in the Palace conveyed was his criticism of the feudal and backward marriage system, while legend of miyue is another kind of realism-historical materialism, which contains the awakening of women, the germination of the consciousness of family and country and the concept of equality. "Miyue is a concubine of Chu. She gradually developed a sense of home and country around the king of Qin, and she also had a critical awareness of the hierarchical bloodline theory and hereditary system, so she would take risks and return to Qin to pacify civil strife and lay the foundation for Qin Shihuang to unify China. Including the Qin Dynasty’s award for military merits, rather than hereditary, these are also the seeds of equality. "

"legend of miyue" stills

He doesn’t think it is necessary to convey specific ideas through specific themes, and there is no need to limit the gender or identity background of the protagonist. "In fact, people who engage in literary and artistic creation do image, and there is a saying that image is greater than thinking." Zheng Xiaolong is a person who came from the initial period of China TV series, and his attitude is still simple and plain. "After you have done your image well, many people will give it something to think about. For example, when Cao Xueqin wrote A Dream of Red Mansions, he didn’t think so much, he just truly reflected the society. Later, Comrade Mao Zedong said that A Dream of Red Mansions was a mirror of feudal society, and it became a mirror of feudal society, which was the understanding given by later generations. A lot of thinking things don’t mean that we have thought it through in the early stage of creation. We just do a good job in the image. As for the interpretation, how big the subsequent impact is, this is not something that can be thought of at the beginning. "

After being created, the female images in Zheng Xiaolong’s works began to have a lot of interpretations, some of which were even quite different from his original creative ideas, which he had never expected in his creation. However, whatever Zhen Xuan, Mi Yue or happiness, behind their awakening of female consciousness and independent consciousness is actually the awakening of human nature-an awakening of equality, struggle and the rule of law. This has nothing to do with gender, but belongs to everyone’s right consciousness. There’s a line in The Story of Xingfu, which Zheng Xiaolong especially picked out and spoke it again. "Distinguish right from wrong through law, clarify truth through law, and popularize social fairness and justice through law. I think it is very important, because we want to build a society ruled by law. This is also what I want to convey through this drama. "

As for the arguments, contradictions and conflicts intercepted by the fragments, and the remarks urging a happy divorce, they all belong to the endowed "thinking", which is the part that literary and artistic creators can’t control after the completion of their works. Zheng Xiaolong tried to digest the gap between himself and the young audience. "I think literary works still need a little nutrition, and there must be emotional things in them. If the general direction is right, you can."

The significance of realism

After decades of film and television drama, Zheng Xiaolong, which has become a benchmark in the industry, has maintained a stable output, but it is not a "high yield". For the production and polishing of the script, including the preparation before starting, he has to spend a lot of thought and effort to dig the details. Even at this age, the vitality of creation and strong desire for expression are still shining on him.

The Story of Xingfu finalized Zhao Liying, and it also experienced some twists and turns in the middle. Because the actor was pregnant and the script was revised, it was almost more than a year before and after. "After the script was revised, the actor also gave birth to the child and sat down for a month. This is settled."

In the era of fast food, Zheng Xiaolong’s process of polishing the script and preparing the details can be said to be very "burning money". "I have to collect ideas and make field trips. I am particularly concerned about this matter and go to see Anhui local Huizhou architecture. For example, when drilling a well, I have to ask if there was such a photo at that time. The arrangement of the wedding venue for the couple, were they like this at that time? Is the construction of rural houses like this? Moreover, I have to ask the original owner (many details), because a lot of the photos we took are real scenes, and the interior is also real scenes. I am afraid that the art will be wrong. "

At the beginning, in the interview during the broadcast of Golden Wedding, Zheng Xiaolong also mentioned the "obsession" of scene restoration. After the script was polished, it was the preparation of the group, from a food stamp to a bus, which was arranged exactly according to the set points of that era. "Realism" is the key point he has always stressed. Only when the literary image reaches a certain level can the audience’s thinking be attached. "As long as you make a good image, it will have an impact on reality. As long as you make it true and reasonable, it will have an impact on reality."

Stills of "Golden Wedding"

"Influence on reality" is the sense of social responsibility that Zheng Xiaolong’s generation of literary and art workers insisted on. When a work is filmed, it is not just for fun, but for the audience to laugh. It has to be meaningful and effective in reality. As for how long and how wide this role can be played, it is uncontrollable, but at the very least, it must have a little effect.

Even now, there are some records of old reports in the evaluation of Zheng Xiaolong by Zhihu and other platforms: "The broadcast of" Desire "triggered an unprecedented upsurge of national audiences, and actors such as Li Xuejian, Zhang Kaili and Huang Meiying also became popular throughout the country. At that time, in order to watch "Desire", people with TV sets were crowded into the station almost every day. Even the Ministry of Public Security said that thieves did not come out to commit crimes because they were waiting to watch "Desire". "

Zheng Xiaolong couldn’t help laughing when he mentioned these sensational influences. This is the pride of literary and art workers and the great affirmation of a director who has devoted his life to it.

Speaking of Empresses in the Palace’s overseas export and cultural communication, Zheng Xiaolong once again emphasized the importance of realism. "Truthfulness, telling a good story about China’s history, telling a good story about China now and telling a good story about the daily life of China people, I think this is all possible. In particular, telling the story of the daily life of ordinary people must be authentic and have universal typical significance. "

Of course, we also asked Zheng Xiaolong what he thought of the current shoddy and suspended film and television dramas. He replied very quickly, "I don’t watch it. I don’t think it looks good. I don’t watch it. I can’t watch it, and I’m not affected."

This national director, who is nearly 70 years old, just wants to tell his own story-a story about every specific "person".

Adhering to the concept of the community of human destiny, we will unite a strong synergy to overcome the epidemic.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out at the G-20 leaders’ special summit on COVID-19 that major infectious diseases are the enemies of all mankind. The COVID-19 epidemic is spreading all over the world, which poses a great threat to people’s life safety and health, and poses a great challenge to global public health safety. The situation is worrying. At present, what the international community needs most is firm confidence, Qi Xin’s concerted efforts, United response, all-round strengthening of international cooperation, cohesion of a strong joint force to overcome the epidemic, and joint efforts to win this human struggle against major infectious diseases. In the face of the epidemic, as a community of destiny in which you have me and I have you, all countries in the world should act quickly, unite the strong synergy of unity, cooperation and common response, and protect the health and peace of the common home of mankind.

  1, gather together to fight the epidemic.

  At the critical moment when the global situation of COVID-19 epidemic prevention and control is becoming more and more severe, the G20 leaders’ first special summit meeting in response to COVID-19 by video released a positive signal of joint prevention and control by the international community, and opened the world agenda of building a prevention and control cooperation mechanism, which indicates that the global joint efforts to fight the epidemic will move from value consensus to pragmatic operation.

  Global joint efforts to fight the epidemic is an inevitable choice to effectively curb the spread of the epidemic. At present, the COVID-19 epidemic is spreading rapidly around the world. According to the World Health Organization, the COVID-19 pandemic has not been effectively contained, and it is growing at an exponential rate. If the international community fails to take joint measures, millions of people may be killed. At the same time, affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the risk of world economic recession is increasing, the international financial market is in turmoil, the unemployment rate in some countries is rising rapidly, social panic is spreading, and populism and trade protectionism are on the rise. A series of secondary disasters caused by the epidemic are causing more and more concern and anxiety. No country can stay out of it and be immune to it.

  Global efforts to fight the epidemic urgently need the concerted efforts of the international community. The outbreak and spread of COVID-19 epidemic in the global scope are different in time, region and degree. This determines that countries must strengthen policy coordination, joint prevention and control, and strengthen communication and sharing of relevant information. On the one hand, the international community should strengthen information sharing, carry out cooperation in drug and vaccine research and development and epidemic prevention, effectively prevent the cross-border spread of the epidemic, and especially work together to help developing countries with weak public health systems improve their coping capacity. On the other hand, with the rapid spread of the epidemic, the demand of countries for medical and health protection and other related materials has surged sharply, which requires the global industrial chain, especially the hub countries, to deepen capacity cooperation, dig deep into capacity potential and achieve the most efficient supply. At the same time, in view of the serious impact of the epidemic on the world economy, countries should also strengthen the adjustment and docking of macroeconomic policies to ensure the openness and stability of the global market and boost the confidence of the world economy.

  2, joint efforts to fight the epidemic need to build consensus.

  The outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic shows once again that human beings are a community of shared destiny. How to effectively curb the spread of the epidemic and prevent and resolve the secondary disasters of the epidemic is a major issue related to the interests of all countries and the future and destiny of mankind. At a critical juncture, is Qi Xin working together to protect the homeland, or is it selfish, narrow-minded and malicious? Is it to join hands to fight the epidemic and overcome the difficulties together, or to create rumors and stigma? It not only tests the governance ability and responsibility of all countries, but also tests the collective rationality and moral spirit of mankind.

  Common challenges need to be met together. Epidemic diseases, regardless of national boundaries and races, are the common enemies of mankind. With the rapid flow of people, goods and information, epidemic diseases can easily break through the time and space boundaries and national boundaries, quickly spread from one country to many countries, and detonate the global public health crisis. What’s more, compared with many diseases, COVID-19 virus has stronger infectivity and higher pathogenicity, which can spread to all parts of the world through individual personnel flow, resulting in a huge global and random risk, and the prevention and control is more difficult than ever. Only by working together can we win the battle. All countries in the world should actively carry out international joint prevention and control from the height of building a community of human destiny to jointly safeguard global public health security and human health and well-being.

  Common goals require unity and cooperation. Building a world of lasting peace, universal security, common prosperity, openness, tolerance, beauty and cleanliness is the common goal and beautiful pursuit of people of all countries, and it is also the rich connotation inherent in building a community of human destiny. The sudden epidemic not only directly threatens the global public health security, but also profoundly affects the economic and social development and prosperity of all countries. As a result, the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic has gone beyond the field of public health and evolved into an overall war and a blocking war to safeguard the prosperity and development of the world and protect human civilization. The international community must establish an effective cooperation mechanism and strengthen communication and coordination in personnel management, scientific research, experience sharing and material production, so as to cope with the crisis and win victory through cooperation.

  The common destiny needs to be in the same boat. There is only one earth for mankind, and all countries coexist in one world. The earth is the common home of mankind and the only home of mankind so far. The objective living conditions and the era environment of "you have me and I have you" make the future and destiny of every nation and country closely linked, with one glory and one loss. As General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized, the occurrence of the COVID-19 epidemic once again shows that mankind is a community of shared destiny. In the era of economic globalization, such a major emergency may not be the last time, and various traditional and non-traditional security issues will continue to bring new challenges. The international community must establish a sense of community of human destiny, help each other, work together to meet the risk challenges and build a better home on earth.

  3. Make China contribution to joint efforts to fight the epidemic.

  China is an advocate of the concept of community of human destiny, and also the most powerful promoter and practitioner of this concept. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed, "I advocate co-construction ‘ Belt and Road ’ And building a community of human destiny is to promote exchanges and mutual learning among different civilizations and mutually beneficial cooperation among countries, and to build a world of lasting peace, universal security, common prosperity, openness, tolerance, cleanliness and beauty. " In this war without smoke, China has been actively supporting the international community’s anti-epidemic efforts with practical actions, and has provided assistance to international organizations including the World Health Organization and more than 80 countries. This is a vivid practice of the concept of a community of human destiny. The speed of China has won precious time for world epidemic prevention, China has built the first line of defense to control the spread of global epidemic, and the practice of China has set a benchmark for human beings to deal with major public health emergencies. The strategic deployment and policy measures adopted by China in the process of epidemic prevention and control, as well as the universally recognized achievements, have greatly demonstrated the urgency and necessity of building a community of human destiny and contributed valuable spiritual wealth to the global joint efforts to fight the epidemic.

  Maintain the heroic spirit of facing difficulties. Difficulties inspire fighting spirit and challenge the spirit. The Chinese nation has experienced many hardships in its history, and has never been crushed. Instead, it has become more frustrated and brave. It is because we always have the belief of winning in the face of any difficulties and obstacles, and dare to struggle and win. The more difficult and dangerous, the more forward we are. After the outbreak of the epidemic, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core United and led the people, braved difficulties and faced difficulties, put forward the general requirements of firm confidence, helping each other in the same boat, scientific prevention and control, and precise policy in time, made clear the overall goal of resolutely curbing the spread of the epidemic and resolutely winning the prevention and control of the epidemic, and quickly launched the people’s war, the overall war and the prevention and control of the epidemic. In the face of the complicated and severe global anti-epidemic situation, all countries in the world should launch a "life-and-death struggle" with the new crown pneumonia virus with heroic spirit to fight hard and fight to the end.

  Adhere to the concept of win-win cooperation. Peace, development, cooperation and win-win are the trend of the times, and they are also the basic principles that must be observed in the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic. During the epidemic period, China, in an open and transparent manner, informed the World Health Organization at the first time, shared information with other relevant countries at the first time, and shared the whole gene sequence of the virus to the whole world at the first time, and actively carried out all-round cooperation with the international community. At present, China has shared many technical documents on epidemic prevention and control with more than 100 countries and more than 10 international organizations and regions around the world, and translated the 7th edition of COVID-19’s diagnosis and treatment plan and the 6th edition of prevention and control plan into many languages for the reference of relevant countries and international organizations, which has effectively enhanced the global anti-epidemic ability and won wide acclaim from the international community. The epidemic is our common enemy. In the face of this struggle, which concerns the common interests of all mankind, all countries in the world should uphold the concept of win-win cooperation, strengthen policy communication and coordination, and work together to set up the strictest joint prevention and control network to fully curb the spread of the epidemic. It is necessary to gather the strength of all countries, work together to speed up scientific research on drugs, vaccines and testing, and strive to achieve breakthrough results that benefit all mankind at an early date. It is necessary to explore the establishment of a regional public health emergency liaison mechanism to improve the emergency response speed of public health emergencies.

  Demonstrate the mission responsibility of a big country. It is the common responsibility of all countries in the world to build a community of human destiny and meet global risk challenges. Among them, big countries play a pivotal role and should take the lead in taking on greater responsibilities and play a mainstay role. In this anti-epidemic process, China took the lead in donating US$ 20 million to WHO, sending medical expert groups to some countries and regions with severe epidemic situation and weak health systems to provide anti-epidemic experience support and medical material assistance, and establishing an online knowledge center for epidemic prevention and control in COVID-19, which is open to all countries, making great contributions to the global anti-epidemic and showing the world feelings of upholding justice and helping each other in the same boat. Fighting the COVID-19 epidemic is a struggle, which requires the firm confidence, unity and cooperation of all mankind. As long as we help each other in the same boat, we will be able to completely overcome the epidemic and write a magnificent chapter in the community of human destiny.

The Ministry of Education responds to the "General-Vocational Diversion" in the senior high school entrance examination | Secondary vocational education will adjust its orientation and increase the op

       CCTV News:Recently, a representative member of the local two sessions suggested that "the diversion of general posts after the senior high school entrance examination should be cancelled", which aroused concern. At the press conference held by the Ministry of Education today (February 23), the relevant person in charge responded that "the separation of general education and vocational education" is necessary, and the diversified development of high school education is the development goal of high school education in China during the 14 th Five-Year Plan period. Secondary vocational education is an important part of high school education and shoulders the heavy responsibility of promoting the diversified development of high school education.

       Chen Ziji, Director of Vocational Education and Adult Education Department of Ministry of Education:The coordinated development of secondary vocational education and ordinary high school education can not only meet the learning needs of students with different endowments, but also provide a space and channel for diversified growth. At the same time, the development of secondary vocational education has made positive contributions to promoting employment expansion, promoting regional economic development and improving people’s livelihood. However, with the economic and social development and the improvement of people’s living standards, people’s demand for high-quality, universal high school education is constantly increasing. The Ministry of Education will actively promote all localities to rationally plan the enrollment scale of secondary vocational schools and ordinary high schools according to the degree of regional economic and social development and the needs of local industrial development. On the other hand, the most fundamental thing is to run secondary vocational education well, improve its own quality, and work hard on on-the-job general education.

       In fact, the social concern about the "separation of general education and vocational education" is mainly that students have no future once they enter vocational schools, and the society has always labeled vocational education as "inferior education" and "eliminated education". At today’s press conference of the Ministry of Education, Chen Ziji, director of the Department of Vocational Education and Adult Education, said that the two major tasks this year will focus on "improving quality" and "enhancing image".

       Chen Ziji, Director of Vocational Education and Adult Education Department of Ministry of Education:In the next step, we will take concrete measures to improve the quality of modern vocational education from the aspects of type characteristics, integration of production and education, school-enterprise cooperation, teaching reform and brand building, so as to effectively improve the quality of vocational education. On the basis of improving quality, we should change the stereotype of vocational education in society, enhance its attractiveness, let parents choose vocational education, let employers rely on vocational education, and gradually form a social atmosphere of "choosing vocational education when going to school, upgrading skills and looking for vocational education", establish a good reputation of vocational education, and make vocational education have a head start, hope and expectation.

Chen Ziji, director of the Department of Vocational Education and Adult Education of the Ministry of Education, also said that this year, the conditions for running secondary vocational education will be improved and the channels for further studies will be unblocked. At the same time, the orientation of secondary vocational education will be adjusted from "employment-oriented" to "paying equal attention to employment and further studies".

Chen Ziji, Director of Vocational Education and Adult Education Department of Ministry of Education:Secondary vocational education is the starting point, not the end point, of vocational education, which promotes the diversified development of secondary vocational schools, changes from "employment-oriented" to "paying equal attention to employment and further education", pays special attention to further education in line with the characteristics of vocational education, strengthens cultural basic education on the basis of ensuring the quality of students’ technical skills training, expands the scale of through training, opens up the growth space of secondary vocational students, and enables secondary vocational students to have the ability to find jobs, have advantages in further education and have channels for development.

In addition, the layout will be optimized, and the "empty, small, scattered and weak" schools will be integrated through measures such as cancellation, merger, transformation, trusteeship, land replacement and group running, and the layout structure of secondary vocational education will be optimized.
