Notice of the office of the municipal government on strengthening the safety management of existing buildings

County, District People’s government, the relevant units of the city:

In order to thoroughly implement the important exposition of the Supreme Leader’s General Secretary on safety in production, firmly establish the concept of safe development, strengthen the bottom line thinking and red line consciousness, profoundly learn the painful lessons from the "3 7" Quanzhou, Fujian and "8 29" Linfen, Shanxi, further strengthen the safety management of existing buildings in our city, ensure the safe use of buildings, and earnestly safeguard public safety and public interests, according to the Notice of the General Office of the Provincial Government on Effectively Strengthening the Safety Management of Existing Buildings (Su Zhengban made)

First, fully understand the importance of safety management of existing buildings.

Existing buildings refer to residential buildings, industrial buildings and public buildings such as offices, schools, medical and health institutions, cultural and sports venues, stations, shopping malls, hotels, restaurants, bazaars, pension and welfare institutions, places for religious activities, etc., which involve all walks of life, and have a wide range of property rights. With the rapid development of urbanization, the number of existing buildings has increased year by year, and the structural components, equipment and facilities of existing buildings are gradually aging due to disrepair, which is easy to cause security risks. At the same time, in the process of using existing buildings, the main structure of the building is damaged or the building structure and equipment are used beyond the design load due to the unauthorized demolition and modification of the building structure or unauthorized change of the use and function of the building space by the property owner or user, which leads to frequent safety accidents in building use.

Strengthening the safety management of existing buildings from completion, delivery, use and maintenance to scrapping and dismantling is of great significance to ensuring people’s lives and property safety, maintaining social stability and promoting economic development. The CPC Central Committee and the State Council pay great attention to the safety of existing buildings. In view of the casualties caused by building collapses in various parts of the country in recent years, they have repeatedly stressed the need to effectively strengthen the safety management of existing buildings. All relevant units in counties (functional sectors) and cities should further improve their political positions, unify their ideological understanding, take the modernization of governance system and governance capacity as the guide, and conscientiously perform their duties in accordance with the principle of "territorial management, standardized use, prevention first, combination of prevention and control, and ensuring safety", speed up the construction of existing building safety governance system, strictly control illegal activities in the process of building use, carry out in-depth and sustained investigation of building hidden dangers, and effectively implement the governance of dangerous buildings.

Second, strengthen the construction of existing building safety management system

(a) to further improve the existing building safety system.Counties and districts (functional sectors) should formulate or improve the existing building safety management system according to the actual situation and the relevant policies and regulations of higher authorities. The management objects should cover all kinds of existing buildings such as urban and rural residential buildings, industrial buildings and public buildings, and the management contents should include the use of existing buildings, safety appraisal, renovation and expansion, decoration, termite control, building exterior decoration and curtain wall, maintenance of key facilities and equipment (including fire-fighting facilities, etc.), and emergency treatment.

(two) to further clarify the existing building safety responsibility.The owner of the existing building is the person responsible for the safety of the existing building. Existing buildings owned by the state or the collective, whose management unit is the person responsible for the use of safety; The actual user or manager of an existing building whose owner is unaccounted for and whose ownership is unclear shall bear the responsibility for the safety of the existing building. It is necessary to further consolidate the main responsibility for the use of existing buildings, urge those responsible for the use of existing buildings to abide by the provisions of relevant laws and regulations on building safety management, and standardize the constructionBuilding use behavior, regular safety inspection and maintenance of buildings, and timely eliminate potential safety hazards.

(three) to further clarify the existing building safety supervision responsibilities.Departments in charge of various industries should conscientiously perform their duties of production safety in accordance with the requirements of "three management and three necessities", and departments of housing construction, natural resources, finance, public security, emergency, fire protection, market supervision, urban management, etc. should do a good job in existing building safety management according to the division of responsibilities; Education, health, cultural tourism, sports, transportation, commerce, civil affairs, religious affairs and other departments should, according to their respective functions and duties, urge those responsible for the safe use of public buildings such as schools, medical and health institutions, cultural and sports venues, scenic spots, stations, shopping malls, hotels, restaurants, bazaars, pension and welfare institutions, religious activities places, etc. to carry out construction safety inspection and maintenance, and eliminate potential safety hazards.

(four) the establishment of existing building archives management system.It is necessary to attach great importance to the information collection of housing safety archives, fully grasp the information of dangerous housing safety, and establish a daily management ledger of housing safety to make the process management clear, continuous and complete, and ensure that the ledger is true and reliable; Actively rely on provincial and municipal information statistical platforms and systems for building safety investigation and rectification, give full play to the application of information technology in building safety management, improve existing building safety management files, and realize dynamic management.

(E) Building a grid management system for building safety.. All counties and districts (functional sectors) should, in accordance with the work requirements of "horizontal to the edge and vertical to the end", pay attention to giving full play to the role of towns (streets) and property service enterprises, promote the shift of management focus, and make overall plans to establish a grid management system for existing building safety in the region, so as to form a good situation in which governments at all levels, administrative departments, industry management departments and grass-roots organizations work together to form a full coverage of management scope without blind spots. Through the grid management system, the management areas should be refined step by step, and all kinds of situations that affect the safety of building use should be clearly classified by menu, so as to compact the responsibility of territorial safety management, ensure that each area has special personnel to inspect and take charge of, and find and deal with existing building safety problems in time.

Three, strengthen the supervision and management of existing building renovation and decoration.

(a) to further clarify the existing building renovation and expansion, decoration engineering capital construction procedures management requirements.Construction renovation and decoration projects with an investment of more than 300,000 yuan or a construction area of more than 300 square meters must apply for construction permits in accordance with the law, and carry out legal procedures for construction drawing review, quality and safety supervision, and completion acceptance and filing; For those who do not reach the scale of applying for construction permits and carry out building renovation and decoration projects, counties and districts (functional sectors) should further clarify the implementation of regulatory responsibilities, refine the division of labor, and strengthen process management in accordance with the requirements of territorial management principles to ensure that no behaviors that endanger the building structure occur. Urban management, housing construction, resource planning and other departments should decentralize the power of law enforcement, shift their focus, take the initiative, strengthen supervision, and strictly investigate and deal with illegal construction behaviors that endanger the safety of building structures. Villages and towns (streets), communities and property management institutions should strengthen inspections, find and stop illegal construction in time, and report to the local government platform and competent authorities in accordance with regulations. Existing building renovation and decoration projects need structural transformation or may affect structural safety, and construction can only be started after the original design unit or the design unit with the same qualification has issued design documents and passed the drawing review. Severely crack down on illegal construction, illegal transformation, unauthorized change of building purposes, etc., and give administrative punishment and credit joint punishment to those responsible for illegal use of safety according to law.

For the transformation of existing buildings into crowded places, before going through the business or opening formalities, the operator should entrust an appraisal (testing) institution to issue a building safety assessment opinion or report, which will be kept for future reference as proof of the legal use of the place, and market supervision, towns (streets), communities and other relevant departments will strengthen supervision afterwards.

(two) the establishment of interior decoration renovation project fire design review and acceptance permit pre safety evaluation system.Renovation of existing buildings. For indoor renovation projects with an investment of more than 300,000 yuan or a construction area of more than 300 square meters, the renovation subject shall fully perform the current legal procedures for project construction before applying for fire control acceptance.On the basis of, complete the appraisal (detection) of building structural safety. Without the safety appraisal (test) report, the fire department will not accept it. Below the scale, refer to the implementation.

Four, increase the investigation of existing building safety hazards.

(a) to carry out the safety investigation of existing buildings in a timely manner. Relevant units of counties (functional sectors) and cities should timely organize the safety investigation of existing buildings within their jurisdiction in combination with the investigation and rectification work of dangerous buildings carried out in recent years, and focus on checking whether the existing buildings have exceeded the design service life, whether there is overload use, unauthorized changes in building use and use functions, and whether there are illegal acts such as renovation and expansion, decoration, etc. Whether there are abnormal conditions such as settlement, cracks, deformation, damage and corrosion of the foundation or main structural members, whether there are peeling of the exterior wall veneer, cracking and damage of the thermal insulation layer of the exterior wall of the building, loosening of the interior and exterior decorative members of the building, whether there are situations such as failure to configure and set the fire-fighting facilities according to the standard or failure to keep them intact and effective, etc., and grasp the state of complete damage of the building, and timely implement the governance responsibilities and remediation measures for the potential safety hazards found in the investigation.

(two) to strengthen the construction safety inspection under certain conditions. We should attach great importance to the safety of existing buildings under severe weather conditions such as typhoon, lightning, rain and snow, and those responsible for the safety of existing buildings should conscientiously do a good job in self-inspection of the safety of existing buildings. For buildings with major security risks, personnel should be evacuated in time to avoid casualties caused by building collapse.

(3) Accelerate the establishment of a normalization mechanism for the investigation of potential safety hazards in existing buildings. All counties and districts (functional sectors) should, in combination with the investigation work, encourage the establishment of "responsible person self-inspection, grassroots grid investigation, departmental joint investigation, third-party professional inspection and government supervision" by purchasing public services and setting up professional inspection teams. Normalized safety hazard investigation mechanism,The existing building safety inspection, regular inspection of dangerous buildings and special inspection of existing building safety under certain conditions are organically combined to achieve early prevention, early detection and early elimination of potential safety hazards.

For existing buildings that have reached the designed service life, foundation or structural components are abnormal or damaged and still need to be used, as well as crowded places such as schools, medical and health institutions, cultural and sports venues, scenic spots, stations, shopping malls, hotels, restaurants, bazaars, pension and welfare institutions, public places of entertainment and religious activities, it is necessary to actively implement regular building safety inspection (identification or testing) and maintenance systems.

Five, do a solid job in the supervision and resolution of dangerous buildings.

(a) standardize the construction safety appraisal work. Housing construction departments at all levels should set up housing safety appraisal institutions, equipped with corresponding technical personnel and necessary instruments and equipment, strengthen the construction of appraisal teams, and ensure the smooth development of housing safety management. City housing safety appraisal management center is responsible for the business guidance of the city’s housing safety appraisal work, and is responsible for the identification of dangerous houses, and the implementation of the "Identification Standard for Dangerous Houses" (JGJ125). Housing safety appraisal is an important content and means of housing safety management. Appraisal institutions should follow the principles of fairness in appraisal procedures, fairness in entities and neutrality and impartiality in appraisal subjects to ensure objectivity, accuracy and authenticity of appraisal conclusions.

(2) Strengthen the classified supervision of dangerous buildings. Counties and districts (functional plates) shall assign special personnel to be responsible for tracking and supervising the dangerous buildings that have been investigated or identified before they are solved. For dangerous buildings observed and used, a supervision plan should be formulated to implement the responsible person; To deal with the dangerous buildings used, we should take effective measures to solve the danger in time, implement the main body of solving the danger, and eliminate hidden dangers in time; For dangerous buildings that are temporarily inconvenient to dismantle and do not endanger adjacent buildings and affect the safety of others, but need to be stopped, personnel should be evacuated in time, obvious warning signs should be set up, and effective sealing measures should be taken to prevent secondary disasters; For the need for overall demolition, it is necessary to strengthen the capacity building of emergency rescue and emergency support in accordance with the requirements of Lianyungang City Construction Safety Emergency Plan.

(3) Accelerate the renovation of dangerous buildings. Counties and districts (functional sectors) should strengthen the management and supervision of dangerous buildings within their jurisdiction, urge those responsible for the use of existing buildings to take the initiative to take responsibility for solving the crisis, implement measures to solve the crisis, and encourage the implementation of the social measures of "insurance+service". For a piece of housing that exceeds the designed service life or is identified as a dangerous house, priority may be given to urban renewal or shantytown renovation. The management of dangerous houses requires the use of special residential maintenance funds, and the management department of special residential maintenance funds should provide convenience within the scope of management regulations; Encourage the establishment of crisis relief funds and support property owners to reinforce and repair the crisis; If conditions permit, we can take the form of government subsidies and property owners sharing funds to rebuild or appropriately expand dangerous houses in situ, so as to solve the problems of insufficient funds for housing safety appraisal and renovation.

Six, strengthen the publicity and guidance of existing building safety management.

Counties and districts (functional sectors) should strengthen publicity and guidance, improve the main responsibility consciousness and public safety consciousness of property owners, users and managers, consciously abide by the laws and regulations on building safety management, standardize the use of buildings, reduce behaviors that affect and undermine the safety of building use, and effectively fulfill the obligations of building maintenance; It is necessary to give full play to the supervisory role of public opinion and the public, urge property owners, users and management service units, strengthen the safety management of building use, promptly discourage improper use, and ensure the safe and normal use of buildings.

Mitsubishi Pajero off-road vehicle imported in 1980s.

From 1984 to 1986, China experienced a round of Japanese automobile import peak, during which three types of Japanese off-road vehicles were imported; Toyota Land Cruiser LC60, Nissan Toure and Mitsubishi Pajero. Among the three off-road vehicles, Mitsubishi Pajero has a higher exposure, which is the first generation product of Mitsubishi Pajero.

From 1953 to 1973, Mitsubishi has been manufacturing Jeep CJ3 off-road vehicle (introducing production license). From the production of this vehicle, Mitsubishi Motors has accumulated experience and technology, and has the technical strength to develop off-road vehicles with better performance. The first prototype of a brand-new off-road vehicle was launched in 1973, and the second prototype was launched in 1978. In 1982, the first generation Pajero came out. At first, there were only three-door models with short wheelbase. In 1983, Mitsubishi introduced its five-door model with long wheelbase, and the model sold in the United States was called Montero.

Mitsubishi Pajero has got rid of the commercial compartment design of the previous off-road vehicle, and the comfort of the compartment has improved a lot, so it has completely changed from the previous off-road vehicle in function, and some private SUVs taste. The chassis design is also brand-new, giving up the leaf spring and front hard axle suspension design of Jeep CJ3, and using the front suspension design of double wishbone plus torsion bar and anti-roll bar, which is not only suitable for high-intensity off-road but also for highway high-speed driving.

In terms of power, there are three (2.0, 2.0T and 2.6) four-cylinder gasoline engines and three (2.3, 2.3 turbocharged and 2.5 turbocharged) four-cylinder diesel engines. In 1987, Mitsubishi launched a flagship model of Pajero with more luxurious configuration. In 1988, its power was upgraded to a 104 kW 3.0-liter V6 gasoline engine (6G72), which became From 1982 to 1990, Mitsubishi Motors Corporation manufactured 300,000 first-generation Pajeros. Because of Pajero’s success, Mercedes-Benz was invited to talk about cooperation. At that time, Mercedes-Benz did not have an SUV with high taste.

Mitsubishi Pajero, imported from China in 1980s, is widely used in the western region. It is much better than GAZ 69 and BJ212 used in the western region before, and it has more face when going out for business. Compared with the Toyota Land Cruiser introduced at the same time, it is not fast and comfortable. However, after several years of use in the western region, it showed that its reliability and durability were not as good as that of Toyota Cruiser (at that time, there were few roads in the western region and the road conditions were very poor. In Tibet, the failure rate increased obviously after 80,000 kilometers in Pajero, but there was no problem when the land cruiser was 120,000 kilometers). After 1990s, the field in western China was dominated by Toyota Land Cruisers.

In-depth investigation of box office of Chinese export films: Beijing meets Seattle meets Waterloo in North America.

Compared with the indiscriminate bombing of Hollywood imported films in the mainland film market, sporadic Chinese films that occasionally "go out" have not received much attention in North America, which directly leads to the unsatisfactory or even poor box office performance of most films. However, since 2010, the pace of Chinese films going abroad has obviously accelerated, and the number of films appearing in North American cinemas has increased year by year, reaching a record 22 this year. However, it is worth noting that quantitative change has not contributed to qualitative change, and the status of Chinese films in North America has not been improved much, and their performance has not improved much — — In 2013, Chinese export films were still "looking for feelings". (Editor’s Note: Tai Chi Xia and shanghai calling are jointly produced by China and the United States; The box office list data in this foreign language does not take inflation into account)

Among them, movies with good box office in China, such as "Beijing meets Seattle" and "Search", have suffered from waterloo in the United States. It is decided that the North American box office performance of "Beijing meets Seattle" of the American Empire State Building is only 0.008% of the domestic box office; "Big shot" is the worst result of maintaining the North American box office of Chinese films for many years. "Beijing meets Seattle" and "Search" are all hard to shake their position … …

Beijing meets Seattle’s North American box office? You have to jump from the Empire State Building to "find the feeling"

Although the film shows the American image of a paradise on earth, the height of the Empire State Building can’t prevent the film from becoming a bottomless black hole at the North American box office. Compared with the film’s 500 million yuan in China, its box office in the North American market is like a "free fall" from the Empire State Building. "Beijing Meets Seattle" was released in North American cinemas on November 8th. By the time the film went offline on the 21st, it only earned $6,579, which set a new record for the North American distributor Huashi Company to release domestic films in North America.

North American box office of Chinese export films

"Beijing meets Seattle" is the most unsuccessful domestic film that Chinese lion introduced into the North American market. Among the 29 films that China Lion Company introduced into the North American market, this film is the only one with a box office not exceeding 10,000. In contrast, If You Are the One 2 and 1942 were relatively gratifying at the box office in North America through China Lion. The former reached $426,894, while the latter also recorded $312,954.

Although most of the location of Beijing meets Seattle was shot in Seattle, USA; Although most American media spoke highly of "Beijing meets Seattle", they thought that "it is different from common romantic comedies and restores the real life of American immigrants". Although director Xue Xiaolu personally attended the film’s premiere in Los Angeles … … But judging from the box office, the American audience didn’t care about the kindness of friends in China. The only cinema in Seattle that showed the film hastily took it off the production line after a week … …

The film’s three-day premiere in North America was $3,430, with an average box office income of 1,143 yuan, ranking 80 th in the box office list of 109 films released in North America during the same period. Its first week opened at the box office (11.8— — 11.14) was only $5,371, and the average box office income of a single museum was $1,790, and the box office ranking slipped to 83rd place. It seems that American cinema companies are not very interested in such "small fresh" romantic films as "Beijing meets Seattle", which were only shown in three cinemas in Seattle, Los Angeles and new york in the early stage. To make matters worse, on November 15th, the film was released in Seattle and new york cinemas … … The box office of a cinema in Los Angeles alone was unsustainable after the 15th. 15th — — On the 17th, the film’s three-day box office revenue was only $924; During the period from 15th to 21st, the revenue of all cinemas and single libraries in this film was $1,208 … …

The North American box office achievement of Finding Mr.Right … …

Up to now, in the list of 656 movies with box office income released in North America in the past year, Beijing Meets Seattle ranks 574th at the box office. Since 1980, the United States has introduced 1579 foreign language films. In this box office list of foreign language films in North America, "Beijing meets Seattle" is located at 1411. On December 8, 2000, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the best Oscar foreign language film jointly produced by China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and the United States, appeared in North America. The film finally fought in the cinema for nearly seven months and ended with a record $128 million. So far, it still holds the title of the highest-selling foreign language film in North America — — It can be said that this is the most important "first" for Chinese films in Hollywood. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is far behind Beautiful Life with a box office of 128 million dollars. The latter grossed nearly $57.6 million, less than half of the former. The hero directed by Zhang Yimou followed closely, with a box office score of $53.71 million ranking third in the list of foreign language films in North America.

Nothing is worse, only the worst, and "Big shot" is not without feeling.

Of course, "Beijing meets Seattle" is not the most unsuccessful Chinese film released in North America. Chen Kaige’s "Search" and Xiaogang Feng’s "Big Shot" have even worse box office results in North American cinemas. Search, which was delayed for 10 months, earned $1,067 at the box office in North America this year, almost breaking the embarrassing record of the lowest box office in North America for Chinese films held by Big Shot — — 820 dollars.

Up to now, a total of 656 new films have entered the North American cinema this year. Including Private Custom, which just appeared on the 20th, the number of Chinese films has reached 22, which is also higher than last year (20), creating a new high. In terms of box office revenue, the total box office of all new films was 9.613 billion US dollars, of which 7,639,800 were Chinese films. Although it rose by more than 60% compared with last year in terms of books, we should know that only "The Grand Master" contributed 6.595 million. Apart from The Master, which supports the facade, only four films, Drug War, Private Order (which is being released and the box office will increase), Destiny and Tai Chi Xia, barely passed the box office line of 100,000.

On the other hand, last year, as many as 10 films crossed the threshold of 100,000, mainly distributed in the range of 200,000-300,000, and the relatively average performance was much better than the generally bleak scene of Chinese films this year.

Analysis of Chinese film distributors: although Chinese lions are single-minded, their output is limited

In-depth investigation of Chinese export films: Beijing meets Seattle meets Waterloo in North America.

Huashi is a "foreign monk" who devotes himself to making Chinese films distributed in North America. Founded in October 2010, Huashi has successively released two Xiaogang Feng masterpieces, Tangshan Earthquake and If You Are the One 2. In particular, the latter finally earned nearly 430,000 US dollars, which still holds the highest box office record for Huashi’s films.

In 2011-2012, Huashi indirectly released 21 Chinese films in two years, including many romantic films, such as Global Love, Love, love in the buff and Girlfriend • Boyfriend, etc., and the distribution of schedules is relatively even, which can be regarded as finding the rhythm of distribution, and also letting North American audiences develop corresponding viewing habits. However, due to the CEO milt &bull before February this year; Barlow’s resignation led to the reorganization of the company’s management. Until mid-June, China Lion released its first work "To Youth" in 2013, and the audience’s enthusiasm was not high. In the end, it only achieved a single performance of less than $4,000. However, the box office of the following two "Tiny Times" was significantly higher, and the revenue of a single museum exceeded $7,000.

Throughout the past three years, the scale of Huashi’s films has obviously decreased, from the average number of 25 cinemas in 2011 to single digits this year, and the performance of a single museum has also declined. It seems that it will take time to recover. When asked about the challenges faced by the company, Robert &bull, vice president of China Lion North America; Lundberg admitted to the Tencent reporter that "piracy is a big blow and a big problem". In addition, compared with the first two local teams who are willing to spend money on advertising, Chinese lions are also quite restrained in the cost of publicity. In addition to paying for outdoor advertisements for individual films [such as "1942"], they still focus on low-cost social platform promotion and grassroots word-of-mouth marketing.

Of course, talking about the box office can’t just look at the overall performance. When measuring the box office results, North American publishers also value the single-store income (the average box office of each theater) because it can more objectively reflect the performance of the film. For example, the box office champion "The Grandmaster", due to the large-scale release of the film in 804 theaters in the United States, its single-room income ($8,202.7) is not as good as the small-scale release of the well-known masterpiece "Destiny" ($16,853.2) — — The latter was only shown in six cinemas for a short time (recently, IFC Cinema in new york began to show the film at the request of the audience). Looking at the 22 Chinese films this year, as many as 14 films earned less than $5,000 in a single library, while only 6 films did not cross the line last year.

In the past four years, Chinese films have been stumbling forward in North America. From 6 movies in 2010 to 1.093 million, 16 movies in 2011 to 3.072 million, 20 movies in 2012 to 7.64 million this year, although the number has been increasing, the pattern of limited influence, excessive dependence on individual movies and large box office fluctuations has not changed. (Editor’s Note: snow flower and the secret fan is usually counted as an English film, so it is not included in the following table)

In-depth investigation of Chinese export films: Beijing meets Seattle meets Waterloo in North America.

Chinese films are struggling.

How much did the North American film market leave for China?

In the entire North American film market, American films account for 92%, European films account for 6%, and only the remaining 2% is reserved for other countries, including India, South Korea and Japan. Many people in the industry believe that even if the 2% market share is completely won, it will not have much effective effect on the development space of China films. Nowadays, Japan and South Korea have gradually lost their local film markets, and all of them have been "occupied" by Hollywood films. China’s film market is also facing the same problem. Therefore, in the face of the dilemma of the loss of the local market, the capital behind the film is even more reluctant to take risks.

Nowadays, a large amount of hot money has poured into the mainland market, which makes more film practitioners turn their attention from export to domestic sales. Some production companies have figured that instead of spending a lot of money to invest overseas, it is better to quickly dig for gold in the domestic market.

Luo Sidian, an expert on film studies in China, once said that such a problem is a structural obstacle for all non-English films to enter the American film market. Because in the eyes of American audiences, non-English movies are "art movies", and "art movies" can only be released in the category of art theaters.

The publisher team has expanded, but it is still a game for a few people.

In North America, cinema distribution itself is a highly competitive and difficult business, while Chinese films are obviously not mainstream films, and the market space is very narrow, so the number of "players" that can be accommodated is also limited. Among them, there are companies like China lion and WellGo that are struggling to survive; There is also the unfortunate Indomina Media who was dragged down after several films were released; The remaining filmmakers with deep pockets only occasionally taste the "freshness" of Chinese films — — In the past four years, although the number of Chinese film distributors in North America has expanded slightly, from the initial five or six to about ten now, its niche market is still an indisputable fact.

 

The impact of "beating" will eventually change, and urban love is difficult to "try and make mistakes"

What kind of Chinese films sell well in North America? I’m afraid the film, the creator and the media people can’t give a standard answer. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero and other films have set box office records for more than ten years, but Chinese films are still at the level of "beating" a few mainstream audiences in North America. However, it’s a bit reluctant to let the series of Ip Man and various films around key words such as "Tai Chi" and "Kung Fu" prop up the whole situation. Therefore, it is a gratifying progress to see that the Chinese lion pays attention to developing the market for Chinese students and new immigrants, and tries to introduce various urban youth romance films from mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Although the effect is still mixed, no matter how "wrong" it is, you can finally try "right" only if you keep trying.

Schedule? Piracy? It is king to choose the right film and publicize it in place.

Speaking of the reasons for the bleak box office in North America in Chinese films, it is often simply and rudely attributed to the publisher’s failure to choose the right screening date, which made piracy take advantage of the loopholes and lost the box office. However, this year’s sharp contrast between The Master and The Dragon King, the capital of Di Renjie, makes this excuse really untenable: The release date of The Master in North America is seven and a half months later than that in the Mainland, while Di Renjie released by AMC appeared in North America simultaneously with the Mainland; On the one hand, there are theme types with broad market potential, coupled with precise marketing with full firepower, on the other hand, there are stories that are too foreign and appear quietly. In the end, the vastly different box office performances of both sides speak for themselves.

Analysis of Chinese Film Distributors: Varnstam has deep pockets and hard skills.

In-depth investigation of Chinese export films: Beijing meets Seattle meets Waterloo in North America.

This year’s 22 Chinese films are distributed by 12 different companies, and they can also be roughly divided into several echelons. First of all, Varnstam, a well-known independent publisher in Hollywood, has always been famous for his "winning a good film", "generous publicity expenses" and "tough public relations skills", and is regarded as the leader in the industry. This time, the release of "The Grand Master", Varnstam not only let director Wong Kar-wai and starring Zhang Ziyi go to all parts of the United States for publicity, but also marked "Martin • Scorsese strongly recommended the localization label, and invited him to attend the grand premiere of the film in new york. In addition, the group went to the San Diego Comic-Con, and of course, the special screening for Oscar held in Los Angeles earned enough attention.

At the same time, Varnstam also cooperated with The New York Times, LA Times and other major media and professional magazines in all kinds of film reviews, advertisements and public relations manuscripts, and created wonderful trailers for North American audiences. Both online and offline, the publicity work was done quite well. On the day of the film’s release in Los Angeles, the author went to watch the movie at the first time and found that most of the audience were Americans. The cinema I went to, which is located in the west of Los Angeles and adjacent to Beverly Hills, rarely showed Chinese movies before because of its superior geographical position. Presumably, only such a strong distributor as Varnstam can seize a place from it.

Even a rough calculation shows that the publication cost of "The Grand Master" is definitely more than one million dollars (the "admission fee" paid to the cinema alone is 8-1,000 dollars/home, and more than 800 cinemas have counted nearly 800,000), but I just don’t know whether the box office of less than 7 million in the end can make Varnstam return to the book. But Varnstam doesn’t seem to care — — It is said that Harvey, the boss of the company, took the film mainly to "please" Megan &bull, the owner of Annapurna Pictures, the nominal publisher of the film; Ellison — — Larry &bull, the founder and CEO of Oracle Bone Inscriptions; Ellison’s daughter is a well-known local tyrant in Hollywood, and she has invested in masterpieces such as The Master, Hunting Bin Laden and american hustle. As an investment and production company, Annapurna Pictures didn’t publicize its resources and experience, but Varnstam’s joining just sold his personal feelings in exchange for further cooperation between the two companies in the future. Therefore, regardless of the film’s profit and loss geometry, Varnstam will bear it.

Medium players have their own main characters.

Secondly, it is a medium-sized independent publisher with a good reputation in North Varnstam, including’s newly established sub-brands, such as Radius-TWC, VarianceFilms, Kino Lorber, First Run and Magnolia (CJ Entertainment, a Korean company, has only released a Chinese-language film of Breaking Up Contract co-produced by China and South Korea, so it is not included). Except for Variance Films, which has a lot of experience in publishing Chinese films, the others have released one occasionally every two or three years, which can be said to be in the stage of cautiously testing the water, but almost every one has its own main genre.

For example, this year brought Keanu • Radius-TWC, the debut film of Tai Chi Xia directed by Reeves, released its last Chinese film at the end of last year, and it seems that it is still conservatively following the traditional blockbuster themes of Chinese films such as "action" and "martial arts". Magnolia’s last film was Warlords in 2010. After three years, it chose the fantasy film The Legend of the White Snake, and still promoted Jet Li, which is quite appealing in North America. Although these companies are a long way behind Vivern Stein in the publicity strength, the number of cinemas is only single digits, and the number of cinemas is only around 30, but due to better control on the scale, almost all of their films released this year have earned more than or close to $5,000. Of course, the performance of Tai Chi Xia is really disappointing — — Because of its global and prestige background, Radius was able to spread in more than 100 theaters in the United States, but as a result, the box office of a single museum was reduced to a pitiful $910, which really lost a lot of money.

In the second echelon, Variance Films should be regarded as a special case. Since 2011, the company has issued Ip Man 2 and Jingwu Fengyun • Zhen Chen, New Shaolin Temple, Revolution of 1911, Let Bullets Fly, Tai Chi 1: Starting from scratch and this year’s Drug War are seven action-oriented films, and their box office results are above average. However, after investigation by the author, it is found that the distribution rights of these films are actually in the hands of another company, WellGo USA, which is good at the distribution of DVDs, VOD and other media platforms. For example, many Chinese films seen by North American audiences on Netflix and other video sites are distributed through WellGo. However, in terms of cinema distribution, WellGo has no advantage, which can be seen from its single-room revenue struggling on the qualified line: Four films released by WellGo this year, Love on the Rooftop, Ip Man: The Last World War, Tai Chi 2: The Rise of Heroes and guillotines, all rank in the middle and lower reaches of the list in terms of box office and single-room revenue.

Therefore, in many cases, WellGo will choose to hire more powerful Variance Films to be responsible for cinema distribution, while focusing on other platforms. Thus, the publishers of Taiji series and Ip Man series jumped back to WellGo from Variance. In fact, the same company was behind it, but the people who came forward were different. Besides Chinese films, WellGo will also release Korean films. In view of the different performances of Chinese and Korean films in North America, WellGo CEO Anne • In an exclusive interview with Tencent reporters, Walker bluntly said, "Chinese people have a poor habit of watching movies."

Analysis of Chinese film publishers: Wanda’s acquisition of AMC has hit a wall.

In-depth investigation of Chinese export films: Beijing meets Seattle meets Waterloo in North America.

Finally, AMC cinema is also worth mentioning. Since it was acquired by Wanda Group in May last year, AMC, as the second largest cinema group in the United States, began to try to make film distribution across borders. This year, it released "It’ s too embarrassing for people to stop" and "Di Renjie • Three films: The Dragon King, the God Capital, and the Chinese Zodiac.

Among them, the first two films were screened in its 35 better cinemas, while the last film was spread to 102 cinemas in the United States. However, due to the unclear audience positioning and lack of publicity and promotion, the box office of the three films is not ideal, especially "Zodiac" by Jackie Chan, although it is a good selling theme of action comedy, only earned a mere $100,000 at the box office, and the income of a single museum was only $970.

Closing statement:

Unlike the mainland film market, which has entered a period of rapid and vigorous development, the journey of Chinese films in Hollywood is still in a difficult initial stage. In 2014, a series of works, including Detective, Demon Journey to the West, Magic Police and Frozen, will appear on the other side of the ocean one after another. Although the final box office performance will probably not improve, it will promote the progress of Chinese films in North America again. Chinese export films still have a long way to go. ……

Building sites become "low-carbon gardens" to create "good scenery" around residents.

Science and Technology Daily reporter Zhang Wei correspondent Wu Qi

On April 20th, on the occasion of the 56th World Earth Day, a construction site in Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province opened its doors to popularize the technological achievements of low-carbon construction for the citizens.

"This is the pier of the bridge, just like the’ leg’ of the bridge. Under our feet is an integrated ladder cage and an outer frame platform used for pier construction. Different from other construction sites, these facade platforms are composed of modularity, just like building blocks, which can be assembled by themselves according to production needs, which reduces the steel loss by 25% compared with traditional scaffolding, which is both environmentally friendly and efficient. " The technician of Zhenghe Avenue Project of China Railway Eighth Bureau, the construction party, said.

"In the past, we were faced with all units in the industry. This time, opening the door to the general public is not only a test of the project construction level, but also enhances the communication between enterprises and society." At the activity site, Yang Zhiqiang was introducing the energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies, green construction techniques and the results of resource recycling applied in the project construction to the surrounding residents who came to visit.

Walking into the construction site, there was no smoke and dust generated by mechanical exhaust, and rows of piers rose from the ground to take shape. The standardized and intelligent construction scene made the visiting residents stop to take pictures. Yang Zhiqiang said: "This is an automatic dust monitoring system, which can be intelligently linked with the enclosure spray device. When the values of PM2.5 and PM10 on site exceed the standard, the system will automatically trigger the spray to let the dust’ fall to the ground’, thus realizing dynamic control." Not only do environmental protection in the enclosure be well implemented, but the project department also upgraded the automatic car washing device at the entrance and exit of the construction site. The sewage after precipitation and filtration can be used for secondary washing of vehicles and sprinkling water on roads to suppress dust. Through recycling, the construction water can be saved by 2000 tons on site every year.

From the construction point of view, it is not an easy task to achieve low carbon. Since entering the site, the Zhenghe Avenue project team of China Railway Eighth Bureau has insisted on integrating the concept of "zero carbon" into the construction details, and introduced a number of environmental protection measures in view of the high energy consumption and high pollution points in traditional construction. Through the linkage of mechanization+intelligence+greening, the project construction has started at full speed.

According to Jiang Yong, the person in charge of the project, the idea of reducing carbon in the project department starts from "replacement" and "reduction". For example, after the construction wastes are classified, hard wastes such as concrete blocks and masonry are broken into construction access roads, steel scraps are recycled into safety guardrails, and wood scraps are processed into temporary facility templates, with a comprehensive utilization rate of over 60%; The temporary facilities on the site are all made of reusable materials, and 70% of the components can be reused after the project. In addition, the introduction of solar outdoor lighting in the living quarters of the construction site can save about 12,000 kWh of electricity every year.

"It’s really not the same as the imagined construction site. I used to worry that the production of construction sites nearby would affect my life. Today, I see that there are so many scientific and environmental protection measures to ensure it, and my heart is much more practical!" Ms. Zhang, a surrounding resident who participated in the event, said with emotion. As a key project in Huishan District, Wuxi City, the construction of the bridge substructure of the project is currently in full swing. Talking about the follow-up construction plan, Jiang Yong said that in the future, the project department will actively apply AI technology to help in resource allocation and further realize the carbon reduction goal of the project construction.

A number of well-known pharmaceutical companies have been sold (attached list)

▍ Source: Announcement of Pharmaceutical Companies

▍ Finishing: Cypress Blue-Corn

▍ Industry concentration has been further improved.

In 2019, there were frequent mergers and acquisitions between pharmaceutical companies. Observing these cases, we can find that some of them spun off their subsidiaries and some strengthened their own strengths through acquisitions. In addition, the sale of non-core assets by foreign pharmaceutical companies and the takeover by domestic pharmaceutical companies have also caused industry analysis.

In these cases, some of them have been completed and some are still in progress. Through the inventory of one-year acquisition cases, it seems that the industry is progressing in the direction of increasing concentration.

With the deepening of medical reform, the implementation of policies such as consistency evaluation, quantity procurement and DRG, and the improvement of industry access threshold, SMEs will be acquired more frequently by large enterprises.

Of course, this is just like the plan of "supporting the merger and reorganization of pharmaceutical production enterprises, cultivating a number of large enterprise groups with international competitiveness, and improving the concentration of pharmaceutical industry" in the "Several Opinions on Further Reforming and Improving the Policy of Drug Production, Circulation and Use" issued by the State Council in early 2017.

According to the agreement between the two parties, Bristol-Myers Squibb will acquire Xinji Company in the form of $74 billion in cash and stock transactions to build a first-class biopharmaceutical giant that can compete with the world’s largest pharmaceutical manufacturer.

In fact, the merger and acquisition of pharmaceutical companies in 2019 is far more than that. By combing the actions of well-known enterprises, the purpose is to find the trend of industry changes under these mergers and acquisitions. In addition, in the announcements of many listed pharmaceutical companies selling assets this year, many properties were thrown out. Some analysts believe that pharmaceutical companies sell houses to survive, but a more rational view should be due to the limited value-added space of real estate.

People who die suddenly have these rules.

You may think that you are in good health and there will be no major problems, but you know what? Some people suddenly fell down and never woke up because of temporary excitement or fatigue. This is sudden death, an unpredictable fatal event.

There seems to be nothing wrong. Why did you die suddenly?

Is there any rule of sudden death? Is there any warning? Can we avoid it? To answer these questions, let’s take a look at a recent study.

This study was published in the journal chinese journal of critical care medicine in April, 2020, entitled "Analysis of Epidemiological Characteristics of 5,516 Cases of Autopsy Sudden Death in China". The researchers dissected the bodies of 5516 cases of sudden death and found the following important findings:

1. Emotional excitement and fatigue are the most common causes.

The study found that among the causes of sudden death, emotional excitement accounted for 26%, fatigue accounted for 25%, and blood volume change accounted for 8.95%. Other inducements include drinking, satiety and minor injuries.

2. Heart problem is the main reason.

It was found that among the causes of sudden death, cardiogenic sudden death accounted for 57.76%, pulmonary sudden death accounted for 21.63%, and brain-derived sudden death accounted for 9.21%. Sudden cardiac death is mainly caused by coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction and arrhythmia.

3. There are often some uncomfortable signals before sudden death.

It is found that people with symptoms and signs in sudden death are most often manifested as sudden attack (20.10%), rest and sleep (16.71%), followed by vomiting (7.49%), dyspnea, chest tightness and sweating, dizziness, chest pain, abdominal pain, convulsion, headache, palpitation, cough and disturbance of consciousness.

People with chronic diseases are more prone to sudden death.

It was found that hypertension (37.95%), heart disease (30.02%) and diabetes (23.79%) were the most common among those with past history. Followed by dysplasia, hyperlipidemia, tumor, infection, hyperthyroidism and so on.

5.30 ~ 63 years old is the high incidence age of sudden cardiac death.

People in this age group are at an important stage of their career and family, with high work pressure, fast pace of life, irregular diet, and addiction to cigarettes and good wine, which may easily lead to "three highs" and coronary heart disease.

How to avoid sudden death? Please do the following three points.

From these laws, we can get some enlightenment:

Middle-aged people should pay attention to controlling their emotions!

Do you often get angry and quarrel with others because of some small things? Are you sometimes so excited that you get carried away and even laugh until you cry? You may think these are normal emotional expressions, but you know what? These mood swings may bring fatal danger to your heart!

A media person once witnessed such a tragedy. Her father-in-law was taken to the hospital because of a sudden acute myocardial infarction, and survived after the rescue. However, she found that in her father-in-law’s ward, the other six patients have one thing in common: they are all quick-tempered and short-tempered, and they are emotional, angry and angry when things happen.

She learned a lesson from it: these people are all out of control because of their emotions, which leads to heart problems!

Why is emotional excitement harmful to the heart?

It turns out that when we are angry or excited, the body will secrete a lot of hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol, which will double the blood flow of the heart, strengthen the contractility of the heart and accelerate the heartbeat. At the same time, blood vessels will contract, blood pressure will increase and blood viscosity will increase. In this way, the heart will bear a greater burden, prone to arrhythmia, myocardial ischemia, chest tightness, palpitation and other symptoms. If the duration is too long or the frequency is too high, it may induce serious cardiovascular events such as angina pectoris or myocardial infarction.

Therefore, middle-aged people should learn to adjust their emotions and maintain peace. Don’t vent or suppress things that don’t go your way, but find a suitable way to release the pressure. For example, you can chat with friends, listen to music, do sports and read books. This can not only relax the body and mind, but also enhance the physical fitness, which is beneficial to the heart.

Middle-aged people should rest moderately and avoid overwork!

Are you often so busy with work and family that you even ignore your physical discomfort? You may think it’s your responsibility and responsibility, but you know what? This lifestyle may make your heart stop beating at any time!

Research shows that many sudden deaths have experienced high pressure, long-term and high-intensity working conditions. This kind of work will make your sympathetic nerves overexcited, leading to heart overload, arrhythmia and myocardial ischemia. If the duration is too long or the frequency is too high, it may lead to fatal cardiovascular events such as arrhythmia or myocardial infarction. Some people die suddenly because of working overtime overnight, mood swings and nervous stress, which leads to neurological dysfunction, coronary artery spasm and sudden stop of blood supply to the heart.

Therefore, middle-aged people should arrange their work and rest reasonably, don’t be overworked, and don’t stay up late to hurt themselves. It is necessary to do some aerobic exercise properly to relax and enhance physical fitness. It is necessary to have a regular physical examination to find and treat chronic diseases in time. Keep good living habits and stay away from alcohol, tobacco and greasy food. Only in this way can you protect your heart from the threat of sudden death.

Middle-aged people should pay attention to body signals and seek medical treatment in time!

You may not know that before sudden death, your body actually gave you many warnings. If you can find and deal with it in time, it is possible to avoid the tragedy.

So, what are the signals before sudden death? According to research, the most common symptom before sudden death is chest discomfort, which mainly has the following three manifestations:

Angina pectoris. This is a feeling of pain or oppression in the chest or precordial area, which usually lasts less than 15 minutes and is often accompanied by dysphagia or chest tightness. This is caused by heart ischemia and hypoxia.

Flustered. This is a feeling of rapid or irregular heartbeat, which usually lasts less than 10 minutes and is often accompanied by discomfort such as chest tightness, fatigue and dizziness. This is due to cardiac electrophysiological dysfunction.

Low blood pressure. This is a state in which blood pressure drops below the normal value, which generally lasts less than 5 minutes, and is often accompanied by symptoms such as cold sweat and dyspnea. This is because the pumping function of the heart is weakened.

These signals mostly occur after physical activity, emotional excitement or satiety. If they can be relieved after rest, it means a mild heart problem. However, if it still doesn’t improve after rest, or there are frequent or persistent signals, it means that it is a serious heart problem and needs immediate medical attention.

In addition to these signals, there are some less obvious signals, such as left arm pain, sore throat or toothache. These signals may be nerve reflexes caused by heart problems, which also need attention.

In short, middle-aged people should pay special attention to their physical changes. If there is any chest discomfort, dull pain or fatigue, they should go to the hospital for examination in time and don’t take it lightly. Only early detection and treatment of heart problems can effectively prevent and reduce the risk of sudden death.

Hospital management reform policy: it is more convenient for doctors not to participate in income-generating medical treatment

  BEIJING, Beijing, July 27 (Wu Tao) Recently, the General Office of the State Council issued "Guiding Opinions on Establishing Modern Hospital Management System" (hereinafter referred to as "Guiding Opinions"), which made a series of arrangements for establishing modern hospitals. What will the modern hospital be built into? Is it more convenient for people to see a doctor? What changes have been made to the salary of medical staff? Zhongxin. com has combed and summarized this.

  What will a modern hospital look like?

  — — Adhere to public welfare and control the scale of special needs services in hospitals

  The Guiding Opinions pointed out that modern hospitals first adhere to the public welfare of public hospitals, adhere to the people’s health as the center, and put people’s health in a strategic position of giving priority to development. Modern hospitals adhere to the separation of government affairs and management, reasonably define the government’s supervisory responsibilities, and give public hospitals the right to operate and manage independently.

  The reporter observed that the Guiding Opinions put forward some particularly detailed requirements for modern hospitals. For example, it is necessary to strictly control the bed size, construction standards and large-scale medical equipment in public hospitals, prohibit debt construction and luxury decoration, and gradually compress beds that exceed the scale standards. Control the scale of special services in public hospitals, and the proportion of special services provided shall not exceed 10%.

  The opinions in the Guidance also suggest that an accountability mechanism should be established for acts such as arbitrary charges and bad practices that have a major social impact, acts that have caused major medical accidents and major safety accidents, serious cases of violation of laws and discipline, and serious violations of the construction of professional ethics.

  It is worth noting that modern hospitals put forward a series of requirements for the position of dean. The dean should be fully responsible for medical treatment, teaching, scientific research and administrative management. The president’s office meeting is the administrative and business decision-making body of public hospitals, which makes decisions on discussion and research matters. At the same time, the annual and term target responsibility of the president is assessed, which is linked to the president’s salary, appointment and dismissal, rewards and punishments.

  Wu Ming, a professor at peking university health science center College of Public Health, believes that the Guiding Opinions not only gives public hospitals the right to operate and manage independently, but also promotes the reform of medical insurance payment method, cancels drug addition, adjusts the price of medical services, reduces the price of medical consumables, and the "two-vote system", and establishes an effective competition mechanism in the medical service market to form an effective constraint on public hospitals, so as to ensure that the dean has the right not to be willful.

  It is more convenient for patients to see a doctor.

  — — Strengthen the emergency power and smooth the green channel

  What impact does the establishment of modern hospitals have on patients? First of all, the doctor-patient relationship that everyone is concerned about is mentioned in the Guiding Opinions, for example, promoting the construction of the "three mediations and one insurance" mechanism that organically combines hospital mediation, people’s mediation, judicial mediation and medical risk sharing mechanism, properly resolving medical disputes and building a harmonious doctor-patient relationship.

  The Guiding Opinions also pointed out that patients’ satisfaction is an aspect of the assessment of medical staff, and the assessment of medical staff is directly related to their salary level and even job appointment and dismissal. City doctors have served at the grassroots or counterpart medical institutions for not less than 1 year before being promoted to the title of attending physician or deputy chief physician.

  In addition, the "Guiding Opinions" proposes to carry out information-based convenience services such as medical guidance, settlement between clinics, push of inspection results, and settlement of medical treatment in different places. Develop high-quality nursing services and strengthen the services of social workers and volunteers. All these provide better services for people to see a doctor.

  In addition, tertiary public hospitals should all participate in the construction of medical complexes and play a leading role. Further improve medical services, optimize medical procedures, rationally arrange facilities in consultation areas, scientifically implement appointment diagnosis and treatment, and implement day surgery, telemedicine and multidisciplinary joint diagnosis and treatment models. Strengthen the emergency rescue force and smooth the green passage in front of the hospital.

  The hospital informatization construction proposed in the Guiding Opinions is also closely related to the convenience of people seeking medical treatment. Zhang Wei, secretary of the Party Committee of west china hospital, analyzed that the Guiding Opinions put forward the effective docking of medical insurance, budget management, drug electronic supervision and other systems, and well designed and implemented medical services, medical quality and safety, internal audit and other systems, so as to minimize the burden of patients seeking medical treatment and the repeated work of medical staff caused by information and communication barriers and cumbersome workflow.

  How to change the salary of medical staff?

  — — Do not set revenue targets, and shall not be linked to the business income of the department.

  Will the salary of medical staff change in the process of establishing modern hospitals? How to change? Presumably this is a problem that many people care about. According to the Guiding Opinions, public hospitals should make independent distribution within the approved total salary, reflecting post differences, taking into account the balance of disciplines, and achieving more work and more rewards.

  According to the relevant regulations, hospitals can explore the implementation of target annual salary system and agreed salary. The salary of medical personnel shall not be linked to the business income of drugs, sanitary materials, inspection and testing. It is strictly forbidden to set income-generating targets for medical staff.

  The Guiding Opinions also show that public hospitals should establish a public welfare-oriented assessment and evaluation mechanism, regularly organize public hospital performance assessment and dean’s annual and term target responsibility assessment, and the assessment results are linked to financial subsidies, medical insurance payment, total performance salary and dean’s salary, appointment and dismissal, rewards and punishments, etc. The assessment results will also be linked to the employment of medical staff, promotion of professional titles and personal salary.

  Wang Hufeng, director of the Medical Reform Research Center of Renmin University of China, analyzed that it is an important aspect to establish a modern hospital management system to grant public hospitals autonomy in salary distribution and management under the framework of laws and regulations. "Only in this way can the enthusiasm of managers and medical staff be fully mobilized, so that medical institutions can provide quality services and efficient services." Wang Hufeng said. (End)

Chinese was born unfit to drink milk? Is there any basis for this statement?

  The artificial meat company has just listed in the United States, and the artificial milk has come. Recently, Mike Shedlock, a columnist of MishTalk, a global economic research website, introduced artificial milk that is more environmentally friendly, healthier and more expensive. This makes many people lament that with artificial milk, the problems existing in milk can finally be solved.

  Rumors about milk have never been broken. "Milk causes cancer", "Milk is not suitable for Chinese’s physique" and "Milk will send mankind to the grave" … … Are these terrible stories about milk circulating on the Internet true?

  Rumor 1: Hormones in milk can cause cancer.

  An article entitled "Milk sends human beings to the grave" was once heated up, causing widespread panic among the masses. According to the article, milk contains the hormone IGF-1. Women who drink too much will suffer from breast cancer and ovarian cancer, while men are prone to prostate cancer.

  "The full name of IGF-1 is called insulin-like growth factor No.1, which has a similar effect to insulin, mainly regulating people’s blood sugar and promoting people’s growth and development. Judging from the current experimental or scientific evidence, it does not indicate that it has a carcinogenic effect. " Li Yajun, a professor at the School of Life Sciences of Guizhou Normal University, said in an interview with the Science and Technology Daily reporter.

  In this regard, some experts have explained that IGF-1 is a protein with important physiological functions, which exists widely in human body. Milk does contain this hormone substance, but the content is very small. Previously, an epidemiological survey showed that IGF-1 seems to have a certain relationship with prostate cancer and other cancers, but so far there is no evidence that IGF-1 is the direct cause of cancer. "Having a certain relationship" does not mean that it will directly induce cancer. In addition, the amount of IGF-1 obtained by drinking milk is insignificant compared with the amount of IGF-1 contained in the human body itself. Moreover, IGF-1 in milk has no biological activity in human body after heating, digestion and absorption, let alone causing cancer.

  In 2017, Song Xiaomei and other scholars from the School of Chemistry and Environmental Sciences of Hebei University published a paper pointing out that the main argument of "milk carcinogenesis" comes from some epidemiological research results (especially for prostate cancer), but it often avoids intake, which is misleading to people who generally lack systematic health knowledge. Its argument is mainly the view of the China Health Survey Report compiled by Cornell University, the main purpose of which is to advocate people in Europe and America to change their bad eating habits mainly based on animal foods. However, the intake of dairy products by Chinese residents is far from the highest intake in European and American epidemiological studies (more than 600 grams per day), even lower than the recommended daily intake of 300 grams in the Dietary Guidelines for China Residents (2016).

  Proverbs 2: Chinese was born unfit to drink milk.

  In life, we often hear the saying that Chinese is mainly vegetarian, and its constitution is peaceful and cool, so it is useless to digest the cold and wet food such as milk. Therefore, more than 60% of Chinese people have diarrhea when drinking milk, which is because milk hurts spleen yang.

  In this regard, Li Yajun said that for a long time, the academic community thought that milk was flat and sweet and did not belong to cold food. Many people in Chinese will have diarrhea when drinking milk, not because the milk is cold or the milk hurts spleen yang, but because the milk contains lactose, and these people lack enzymes to decompose lactose, which is reflected in the fact that they will not have diarrhea when drinking yogurt or soothing milk with lactose decomposed.

  Adults in China drink less milk, and the body’s ability to decompose lactose will decrease — — Lactases that decompose lactose in the intestine are "unemployed" one after another, which leads to the basic shutdown of the "factory" that produces lactase. The lack of lactase in most people is caused by "using it and discarding it", rather than congenital lack of this gene. The vast majority of Chinese do not have congenital lactase deficiency, that is to say, Chinese is not born unfit to drink milk, just because he usually drinks too little. For non-congenital lactose deficiency, the ability to digest lactose can be restored through gradual adaptation.

  Rumor 3: Drinking milk leads to various skin diseases.

  Some people, especially infants, are prone to eczema after drinking milk, so there is a saying on the Internet: Never drink milk, which will lead to skin diseases such as eczema.

  "This is a chronic allergic problem of food. Some people will be allergic and acne when drinking milk, but it cannot be proved that this food is inedible, because there are always a few allergic people. In fact, many people in life have different allergens, such as eggs, beef, seafood and even all kinds of fruits. We can’t say that everyone should not eat these things just because a few people are allergic. This is typical and a bit ridiculous. " Fan Zhihong, an associate professor in the Department of Nutrition and Food Safety, College of Food Science, China Agricultural University, said.

  Li Yajun also said that this statement is not accurate. It is not milk itself that causes allergies, but some people may be allergic to protein contained in milk, so drinking milk will cause skin diseases, but this does not mean that there is something wrong with milk. Just like many people are allergic to pollen and seafood, there are various allergens. As individuals, it is good to avoid contact as much as possible in life. But it doesn’t mean that what is bad for this person is not good for others to eat.

  Proverbs 4 Casein can increase the prevalence of many diseases.

  An article entitled "The Great Harm of Milk! The online article "Milk, Meat, Fish and Eggs", which is suggested to be completely fasted, has far-reaching influence and makes many people have doubts about eating milk. The article points out that the research by Professor Campbell of Cornell University in the United States shows that protein in milk, especially casein, is a very strong cancer promoter, and it can increase the incidence of heart disease, diabetes, kidney calculi and hypertension. Li Piao, editor of the rumor mill of the shell network and an agronomy major, once said that Professor Campbell’s research on the carcinogenesis of casein in milk "is not the mainstream view in academic circles, and there is no stronger evidence to prove that milk can increase the risk of cancer". According to reports, Campbell’s experiment was to induce cancerous cells in rats by high dose of aflatoxin (a strong carcinogen), but it could not be directly concluded that casein had the same effect on healthy people. Moreover, Campbell also made it clear in an interview with the media that his research does not mean that dairy products can cause cancer.

  Fan Zhihong said that this statement is purely a rumor, because existing studies have proved that casein in milk not only does not increase the risk of the above diseases, but is beneficial to the prevention of hypertension and stroke. A study of 64,191 women in China found that the intake of calcium, magnesium and dairy products was negatively correlated with the risk of diabetes. The nutritional epidemiological study of Institute of Nutrition of Chinese Academy of Sciences also found that the intake of dairy products was negatively correlated with waist circumference, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure, glycosylated hemoglobin content, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, body mass index (BMI) and blood sugar.

  In Li Yajun’s view, not only milk, but also human milk contains casein. Casein in dairy products is a kind of high-quality protein, which contains eight kinds of amino acids needed by human body, especially the combination of casein and calcium, which is beneficial to promote the absorption of calcium by human body.

Reuters: Pyongyang may have the ability to independently develop missile engines.

  CCTV News:In response to the news reported by the US media on the 14th that the Ukrainian Southern Design Bureau sold missile engines to North Korea, the Ukrainian side voiced for two consecutive days, firmly denying the incident and suggesting that Russia was behind the scenes. In this regard, Russia also responded strongly: criticizing Ukraine for wanting to "shabu-shabu".

RD-250 engine

RD-250 engine

  On 14th, The New York Times quoted a military expert as saying that North Korea successfully tested an intercontinental ballistic missile last month, probably because it bought missile engines from Ukrainian enterprises in the arms black market. A research report published by the Institute for International Strategic Studies in London, UK, further pointed out: "No other country can develop from having medium-range missiles to having intercontinental ballistic missiles in such a short time. This speed means that North Korea has obtained a high-performance liquid fuel engine from abroad, and only the RD-250 engine manufactured by the Southern Design Bureau of Ukraine meets the external characteristics of North Korea’s new engine. "

  In this regard, the Ukrainian side voiced for two consecutive days and denied the incident.

Ukrainian Prime Minister Groisman

  Ukrainian Prime Minister Groisman said that this is aimed at sowing dissension against Ukraine. I believe the statement of the National Security and National Defense Commission, and I can assure you that there is no such thing at all.

  The Southern Design Bureau of Ukraine was established in 1954, and its full name is the Southern Machinery Manufacturing Scientific Research and Production Consortium, located in Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine. Its original purpose was to design ballistic missiles for dropping nuclear warheads. After the American media reported, the Southern Design Bureau has issued a statement that Ukraine has not provided military missile engines to any country since its independence in 1991.

  The Ukrainian Space Agency hinted that Russia was behind the scenes.

  The Ukrainian National Space Agency further issued a statement, suggesting that Russia is behind the scenes.

  Yuri Radcenco, head of the Ukrainian National Space Agency, said that this kind of engine was produced in Ukraine before 2001 and was widely used in two projects, namely "Cyclone 2" and "Cyclone 3", which were supplied by the Southern Machinery Factory for Russian projects, but not produced for Ukraine itself.

  When this statement came out, it was immediately countered by the Russian side.

  The host of Russia’s first channel reported that what they mean is that Russia disassembled the "Cyclone" missile into components and gave the most precious engine to North Korea without feeling distressed. That’s ridiculous!

  On 15th, the general manager of Southern Design Bureau suggested that RD-250 could be "copied" by 3D printing technology to meet the demand of North Korea. In this regard, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry rogozin said categorically that this is absolutely impossible.

  Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry rogozin said that some portraits can be reproduced, but the engine is the most advanced technical structure, which requires not only detailed technical documents, but also test stands and various tests. Strictly speaking, what is needed most is professionals who know everything about engines, so this time either the technical documents were leaked or someone sold them directly.

  Just as the two sides were at loggerheads, a piece of news disclosed by the British Reuters on the 16th was quite a "rescue". According to Reuters, Pyongyang may already have the ability to manufacture missile engines, and it does not need to rely on the support of other countries at all.

  A reporter from Reuters, UK, said that the research of the London Institute for International Strategic Studies was only based on the measurement of the engine photos released by North Korea, and there was a heated discussion among experts who had been concerned about the North Korean nuclear issue. Some experts’ judgments were consistent with the assessment of American intelligence agencies, that is, North Korea may have the ability to independently develop and build missile engines.
