96525 psychological assistance hotline is called "mental emergency room"

"525" is the homonym of "I love me", reminding everyone to "cherish life and care for themselves". To this end, from May 25th to June 25th, various departments of our city jointly launched the theme activity of "Sunshine Escort, Enjoy the Soul". Through a series of publicity and the promotion of the 96525 psychological assistance hotline, we called on everyone to be kind to themselves and care for themselves, so as to further enhance the public’s psychological quality and promote the harmonious development of physical and mental health.

From more than 100 calls a year to thousands.

Increase in demand

It is understood that in 2020, the Provincial Health and Wellness Committee applied to the provincial communication management department for a short number of 96525, and in that year, it was determined to be the psychological assistance hotline of Zhejiang Province. Wenzhou City opened this hotline for the first time, and the hotline answering work relied on the professional strength of the Seventh People’s Hospital of the city.

In fact, the Seventh People’s Hospital of the city has a long history of psychological assistance hotline work and has rich experience. As early as 2005, the hospital opened the first psychological assistance hotline 0577-88434567, and also opened the QQ online psychological assistance group. At that time, the service team was already very professional, consisting of psychiatrists and psychological counselors. However, there are not many consultation calls, only one or two every day.

Later, with the increasing demand for public psychological services, coupled with the integration of the 12355 youth psychological special line set up by Wenzhou Communist Youth League Committee, the number of psychological assistance hotlines increased significantly. The hospital also made full use of the social platform and added the WeChat psychological assistance "Wen Qi Yi Talk Channel", which was well received.

In 2017, in order to standardize all kinds of psychological assistance hotlines in our city, the hospital integrated some free psychological assistance hotlines in our city into 12320, and concentrated professional talents to provide professional and high-quality psychological assistance services for the people in the city.

"The number of psychological assistance hotlines has increased from more than 100 per year to thousands today." Huang Guoyong, secretary of the Party Committee of the Seventh People’s Hospital, said that since the opening of the city’s unified psychological assistance hotline 96525 in 2020, up to now, a total of 14,538 psychological counseling calls have been received. Since the beginning of this year, a total of 1629 calls for psychological counseling have been received. Judging from the problem of telephone consultation, the emotional problem of minors under the age of 18 ranks first, accounting for 25%; Followed by emotional problems of adults, accounting for 11%. In the process of consultation, the problems of 15 callers with high-risk situations such as depression and suicidal ideation were successfully solved.

"In recent years, the number of telephone consultations has increased, reflecting the public’s greater demand for professional psychological counseling." Huang Guoyong said that these psychological problems mostly come from work, family, school and so on. Due to the great pressure of life and work, modern people will have some minor psychological problems more or less. If they can get benign guidance, they will easily return to normal.

From student problems to various crisis events.

Expand the scope of consultation

May 25th is "National Mental Health Day for College and Middle School Students". From this perspective, the original 96525 was more of a "special line" for students. However, in the past two years, with the increase of public awareness of 96525, the caller group has already expanded from students to all ages and occupations, and the consultation questions are also varied, and there are even high-risk situations.

Recently, a young mother called to tell her anxiety. It turned out that her child had otitis media, and the elders at home took the child to the hospital to see a doctor. She is worried that they will be infected with other diseases during the treatment, and then infect themselves, so they are in anxiety every day and even affect their sleep. She will continue to wash her hands and take her temperature. But in fact, her family has been in the hospital for more than half a month, and there are no symptoms of discomfort. At this time, she feels that there is something wrong with her excessive worry and she almost collapses. After the normalization and positive explanation of the counselor, the counselor relaxed a lot, and she accepted her state more.

Huang Guoyong said that 96525 received calls from graduate students asking how to deal with the relationship with their tutors, parents asking how to educate adolescent children about sex, middle and high school students seeking ways to relieve anxiety before exams, and middle-aged men trying to relieve the pressure brought by family and work. "The psychological assistance hotline has a clear functional orientation, which is the first-level prevention of the crisis. Of course, everyone has a different understanding of the crisis. As long as you feel that something has an impact on you and it will get worse if you don’t solve it, then this is a crisis. At this time, you can call the psychological assistance hotline. " He said that even some people who have not encountered practical problems but just want some advice and suggestions can seek help from the hotline service. In a word, the function of the psychological assistance hotline is to help counselors to relieve emotional stress, learn to face reality and restore their sense of control over life.

From tinkering around the edges to becoming stronger and bigger.

Building a high-quality "lifeline"

The 96525 psychological assistance hotline is online 24 hours a day, providing free consultation and counseling services around the clock.

"Offline clinics are’ visible and tangible’, which can be comprehensively judged and evaluated by the patient’s face-to-face, speech, body posture and other aspects; On the online, you can only communicate through voice. This requires psychological counselors and psychotherapists who answer calls, and can use professional knowledge to quickly judge and solve problems. The team behind this phone line is quite strong. " Huang Guoyong compared the 96525 psychological assistance hotline to a "mental emergency room". Once it encounters a high-risk situation, it is a "lifeline".

Huang Guoyong said that next, we will continue to strengthen team building and train professional talents. Constantly improve the professionalism, professional ability and service awareness of the operator team, and help the consultants to stabilize their emotions, find out the reasons, provide psychological support and guidance, and find themselves through reflective listening. Establish a dynamic updating mechanism of knowledge base information, and equip professionals to improve service quality and professional quality, and realize the "quantity and quality" Shuang Sheng for mental health talents.

Pan Jianfen, deputy director of the Department of Disease Prevention and Control and Occupational Health of the Municipal Health and Health Commission, said that since the beginning of this year, the city has accelerated the integration of various psychological service hotlines, and achieved "mental health number one" through withdrawal and merger. For example, the youth rights hotline 12355, the women’s Federation rights hotline and the family education hotline all realize two-way transfer with 96525, and the 12345 and 96525 run in parallel, and the special psychological service is accepted by 96525. Citizens can get free professional mental health consultation service anytime and anywhere by dialing 96525.

Pan Jianfen said that next, the city’s psychological assistance hotline management center will be upgraded by relying on the 96525 hotline, and feedback information from psychological assistance hotlines, official portals, WeChat WeChat official account, offline self-service terminals, offline venues and other mental health service portals will be gathered, and 110 public security alarm systems and 120 medical emergency systems will be embedded to realize 24-hour free and efficient psychological emergency assistance. Make the 96525 hotline a "heart-to-heart bridge" to communicate social psychology, a "happy lock" to promote mental health, and a "hard brand" to show first-class service.

"Of course, while promoting the psychological assistance hotline, the hospital will also actively carry out diversified popular science propaganda and comprehensively carry out mental health promotion and education, such as spreading mental health knowledge through psychological lectures into the campus and community clinics, advocating a healthy lifestyle, improving mental health literacy, and cultivating a good social mentality, so that everyone can become the’ first person responsible for their mental health’." Huang Guoyong said.(Reporter Hu Ning)

Sichuan cuisine pilgrimage site, two words-of course not Chengdu.

Original Tian yi chi huo institute

It’s Zigong

Yanbang cuisine, by its name, feels like a heavy-flavored cuisine. The fact is true, salt-helped dishes are born of salt, and the characteristics of the cuisine are fragrant, spicy, fresh and heavy.

Yanbang cuisine, also called "Xiaohe cuisine" in the pedigree classification of Sichuan cuisine, takes Zigong in southern Sichuan as the center and also includes Yibin cuisine, Luzhou cuisine and Neijiang cuisine around it.

Zigong in Sichuan

/Food nourished by salt resources/

Zigong is a prefecture-level city in Sichuan, and one of its subordinate districts is called ziliujing district. According to the older generation of salt workers, "gravity flow" is not an adjective, but a reality. Brine water is on the surface of the ground, gently cut a hole, and brine "gurgles" like a mountain spring.

Zigong people laughed at themselves: "This palm-sized place", at most, there were more than 10,000 salt wells, which showed that the well salt resources here were rich and the salt merchants’ trade was prosperous.

The salt needs to be boiled after it is beaten.

Under the prosperous trade, the taste of relying on salt to survive has grown: salt workers have to work hard, heavy oil and salt can ensure physical strength and fast meals, and they eat "salt workers’ dishes" with heavy taste.

Salt merchants are rich, paying attention to face and ostentation. They make the dishes carefully crafted by the chefs in your house known as "salt merchants’ dishes". Salt merchants’ dishes abandon some heavy tastes and have a light taste.

The heavy profit of salt drove businessmen from all over the world to gather in Zigong, where they set up provincial guilds, thus giving birth to "guild dishes" that gathered local characteristics and absorbed the practices of various factions.

Light and tasty chicken tofu pudding

Maybe many people haven’t seen the salt well with their own eyes. It doesn’t have a wide wellhead and water surface visible to the naked eye as most people think. Most of the bittern is buried several hundred meters or even thousands of meters from the ground. People use all kinds of heavy tools to dig the well bit by bit, 5 years, 10 years, 20 years, 200 meters, 300 meters and 800 meters, until the bittern water is produced, and the wellhead is no bigger than a sea bowl.

To draw bittern is to put a long bamboo tube deep into the bottom of the well, pour bittern and lift it to the ground. Whether drilling wells or extracting brine, you need to rely on ladders, winches and cows up to tens of meters. The work on the well is around the clock, and so are the cows pulling the winch. It takes about 50 turns to draw a bucket of bittern. Because of the excessive labor intensity, many cows will die in less than one year.

Dead cows can’t be wasted. For salt workers who are also working hard, beef is an excellent energy source. Many traditional beef dishes in Yanbang cuisine were born.

Nowadays, boiled beef, which is common in major Sichuan cuisine restaurants, is one of the representatives of salt industry dishes. The spicy taste is thick, smooth and palatable, and the flavor is strong. The enthusiasm of boiled beef is very similar to that of Sichuan people.

Authentic yanbangcai

/Not just spicy and spicy/

When I went to Zigong a while ago, I was lucky enough to invite a famous local chef to cook a table of authentic salt dishes for us. The impression that salt dishes are spicy and heavy was greatly subverted, and we can also get a glimpse of the reason why Sichuan cuisine can go out of Sichuan and conquer the world.

■ Boiled beef

Let’s start with boiled beef. Is this dish particularly common? But this time I ate something unusual.

At present, the common practice of boiling beef in water is to fry lettuce tips, bean sprouts and other vegetables first, then put the pickled beef in a pan and lubricate it, and finally put it in the sauce and fry it together, and finally pour oil on the table.

However, in the traditional way of boiling beef, you should first stir-fry the ingredients, then stir-fry the vegetables. The sauce has the smell of vegetables, then use it to cook the beef, and finally put in the knife-edge pepper and serve it with oil.

Traditional boiled beef

Although it is only a small difference in steps, it actually tests the chef’s temperature. Stir-fry vegetables first, then beef. If you don’t master the heat well, it will burn. Therefore, for the convenience of the map and the stability of the product, vegetables and beef are usually cooked separately in general restaurants by default.

In the traditional way, vegetables, beef and sauces are combined, and you have me and I have you, and the hemp, spicy, fresh, fragrant and fragrant are compound and rich in layers-this should be the reason why boiled beef is the first Sichuan dish to catch fire.

■ Fireside beef

Another beef dish, which can be served as a cold dish or as a snack, is fireside beef.

Legend has it that this is also the invention of salt workers. In the old days, salt merchants paid beef as part of their wages to salt workers. The salt workers first soaked large pieces of beef in brine to taste, then cut them into extremely thin, almost light-transmissive slices, salted them, spread them flat on a shelf and dried them, and then smoked them by the fire with cow dung as fuel, from which came the "fireside beef". The dried beef slices are crisp but not cotton, and the entrance is crisp and tough.

Huobianzi beef

According to the chef, the process of this dish is not complicated, but it needs a lot of care and experience, because if the beef is cut thin and then spread flat on the bamboo sticks for air drying and smoking, if the experience or patience are insufficient, the meat slices will not be formed, and it will be impossible to become a dish. Therefore, this is all meticulous work, which is very wasteful.

Sichuan has always been one of the places where beef is eaten the most and can be eaten in a variety of ways. Hot yellow throat, hot hairy belly and other dishes made by cattle in the water are also the favorite of salt workers. While salt workers were boiling, frying and baking, chefs working for wealthy businessmen and nobles began to disassemble and cook cows in more detail.

■ Yipin Niutoufang

Yipin Niutoufang is considered as a typical official dish of Shanghe Gang in Sichuan cuisine, and it can also be found in the guild dishes of Yanbang.

Niutoufang is made by burning the skin at the top of the cow’s head to remove the rough epidermis and hairy roots. After a long time, the meat is thick and soft, the gum is elastic and tough, and the aroma is solid and rich. Niutoufang is by no means a stunning taste, but a thick and delicious food in a silent place. Now there are only a handful of chefs who can produce this dish.

Yipin niutoufang

This delicate idea has also been used in other dishes-liver cake soup, a famous and almost lost old dish.

■ Liver cake soup

Liver cake soup is one of the three clear soup dishes in Sichuan cuisine. It is made of liver, clear as water and mellow in taste. Luo Chengji, a scholar of Zigong literature and history, once mentioned "mushroom liver ointment soup" in his works. If it is not difficult for many professional chefs to cook clear soup like water, then making "liver cream" is not the secret that everyone can master.

Liver cake soup

This time, in the hands of Zigong famous chefs, we are also fortunate to taste it. For this dish, the chef began to cook soup from 9: 00 in the morning, with old chicken, ribs, chicken feet, lean meat and ham as the base materials, and kept it boiling for 7 hours with minimal fire.

And the other protagonist: liver, the traditional practice is to use pig liver, and modern chefs will choose a more delicate foie gras. The method of making liver cake was gently taken by the chef, and it was "steamed". In fact, there are secrets in seasoning and modulation. Of course, the cooking skill is still the key. If you don’t master the cooking well, the liver cake is too tender or too rough, and you can’t form a delicate and dense taste.

When the broth has been boiled for enough time, add chicken breast meat and pork meat to absorb blood foam impurities, and then filter for several times until the soup is clear as water and yellowish in color. Then put the shaped and flavored liver cake into the clear soup and steam it in the cage for several minutes before the liver cake soup is ready.

In this dish, the taste of soup is very light, and all the delicious ingredients have been melted into the soup. The elephant is invisible, as elusive as a shadow, and people can’t help but want to catch up and take another look. The entrance of liver cake is delicate and mellow, which is in contrast with the lightness of soup.

However, in the eyes of local people, the dish that can best get through the upper and lower classes in Zigong is the rabbit.

Tutu is so cute, it must be delicious.

There are too many ways for rabbits to eat in salt dishes, such as cold rabbit, double pepper rabbit, dried pepper rabbit, dry pot rabbit, soaked rabbit, scalded rabbit …

Dried pepper rabbit

There were two rabbits in the chef’s banquet: fresh pot rabbit and scalded skin rabbit.

■ Fresh pot rabbit

Fresh pot rabbit, strictly speaking, belongs to the new school of salt-help dishes, which evolved from the traditional double pepper rabbit. No Zigong chef is not perfect in cooking rabbits.

Double pepper rabbit

Fresh pot rabbit is seasoned with fresh pepper, and the soup is used as the base. It is hot and spicy, heavy oil and heavy salt, and it must be served with two bowls of white rice, which is really enjoyable. Diners joked: it’s really a salt-helped dish, so I’m too willing to put salt in it, so I have to use a big bowl of rice to match it. This combination means that I have to do something.

Xianguotu

■ Scalded rabbit

The scalded rabbit is a typical traditional salt merchant dish. "Hot" is actually boiled. The beauty of the word "hot" is that the rabbit meat is delicate. After a short period of boiling, the rabbit meat with a little oil is smoother. It is slightly salty and tender when eaten directly, and the taste is progressive step by step when dipped in water, which is enough to satisfy the guests from all walks of life.

Scalded rabbit

In addition, because of the Tuojiang River, Minjiang River and Fuxi River, in the eyes of the salt chef, fresh river and waterfowl can also have ever-changing tricks.

Salt helps a duck. Take an old duck, remove its bones, stuff it into pork belly, ham and dried bamboo shoots, steam it, and scoop it with a spoon when eating it. It is unusually soft and delicious. Eat loach cold, fry fresh loach first and then fry, let it cool before eating, crispy with glutinous rice, heat and seasoning are indispensable; The young ginger frog, which Zigong people think is small and flexible, is fresher than the bullfrog with thick meat. After the young ginger is fried with the frog, its position is not only an auxiliary material, but often robbed by everyone with the frog …

Young ginger frog

Only after eating this meal did I know that the folk saying that "a salt merchant has a dish and a salt worker has food for half a year" is not empty talk, but it does not mean how valuable ingredients salt merchants like.

Just like the "eggplant" that surprised granny Liu, eggplant and old hen are nothing but ordinary things, even if abalone has wings and belly, it is not rare. What is really rare is to find someone who is willing to spend time and effort to cook ordinary food to amazement. That is the gorgeous chapter seen in the ordinary.

Serbia in Chinese Memory

  Cctv news(Reporter Li Shaofei) Because of the state visit of the Supreme Leader of president, China, the reports on Serbia have suddenly warmed up.

  But in fact, in China, most people know little about Serbia. Talking about this country with the "key to the Balkans", Chinese people are still more impressed by the "Yugoslavia" era, which has become a historical term.

  In that distant but unforgettable memory, there are Tito, the leader who never bowed to power, Walter, the elusive guerrilla hero, the passionate Yugoslav football, and the vicissitudes and beautiful ancient city Belgrade … …

  Man of iron "Tito"

  There is no doubt that Tito is the totem of modern Yugoslavia. In the special era of the two world wars, in the face of the invasion of fascism, Tito, as commander-in-chief of the People’s Army, United the divided Balkan Peninsula into a powerful whole with his super personal charm, and Yugoslavia, which was formed by the union of six republics including Serbia and Croatia, twisted into a rope and fought bravely against the invaders.

  Tito’s legend goes beyond that. After World War II, unlike most socialist countries, Yugoslavia under his administration deliberately kept a distance from the Soviet Union and insisted on independence and non-alignment movement. Yugoslavia is the only socialist country in Europe that has not joined the Warsaw Pact, openly challenging Big Brother.

  After successive assassinations, Tito said strongly in his letter to Stalin: Don’t send someone to kill me. We have arrested 500 people, some with bombs and some with guns … … If you still send someone to kill me, then I will send someone to Moscow, and I will definitely not send the second one.

  In 1974, 82-year-old Tito became the lifelong president of Yugoslavia. In 1977, the communist party revolutionary was invited to visit China. Tito, who insisted on independence and was not afraid of power all his life, was warmly sought after in China.

  In 1980, Yugoslavia’s "God-given leader" died of illness. Twelve years after Tito’s death, the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, which was founded by this great leader, was dissolved.

  Guerrilla hero "Walter"

  If Tito is a realistic hero of Yugoslavia, then Walter is a superman on the screen.

  Walter is from the classic Yugoslav film Walter Defends Sarajevo. In the 1980s, this film was introduced into China and gained a large number of fans.

  Walter, the hero, is brave and witty, and the heroic image of leading guerrillas to fight against German Nazi aggression is deeply rooted in the hearts of Chinese people. Walter has also become synonymous with Yugoslav nationals, so that today, more than 40 years later, the death of Bata Zivojinovic, the leading actor in the film, still arouses a flood of nostalgia in China, which shows the influence of Walter in China.

  This reflects the popularity of Yugoslav films in China in those years. Apart from Walter Defending Sarajevo, films and TV works such as The Bridge and The Blacklist are also popular in China. It can be said that in the 1970s and 1980s, Yugoslav films were as popular in China as domestic audiences loved Hollywood blockbusters.

  The Golden Age of Yugoslav Football

Red Star Belgrade, which won the Champions League in 1991

Red Star Belgrade, which won the Champions League in 1991

  Football is another indelible impression of Yugoslavia. In the second half of the last century, Yugoslav football, with both European body and American skills, was at its peak.

  In the first World Cup after World War II, Yugoslavia finished fifth, and in the 1962 World Cup, they reached the semi-finals. The record of the European Cup is even more brilliant. In 1960 and 1968, Yugoslavia won the runner-up twice.

  After entering the 1980s and 1990s, Yugoslav football reached its peak. The domestic league champion Red Star Belgrade won the Champions League in 1990-91 and the Toyota Cup in 1991, and a number of talented players such as Suk, Bo Ban, savicevic and Pan Caifu were born. At that time, European giants such as Real Madrid, Barcelona and AC Milan often had Yugoslav players.

  However, in a longer period of time, Yugoslav football is playing a sad role. Although there are many talented people, due to internal consumption and disputes, Yugoslav football at the national team level has never won the championship.

  In 1992, the Yugoslav team, which was at its peak and had a high voice to win the championship, had to quit because of the civil war, resulting in a romantic "Danish fairy tale", which replaced Yugoslavia and won the championship in one fell swoop.

  After the dissolution of the Yugoslav Federation, that beautiful and sad golden age also went with it. However, the glory and beauty of the past are still amazing from time to time. The words of former Bosnia and Herzegovina coach Susic are the epitome of this complex: "If it weren’t for the war, Yugoslavia might win the World Cup one day. I know that thinking like this has long been useless, but sometimes you still dream that all this can happen. "

  The city called Belgrade. 

Belgrade

Belgrade 

  As the former capital of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and now the capital of Serbia, Belgrade, together with Havana in Cuba and Tirana in Albania, has been regarded as the three bright lights of socialism for a long time, and Chinese people have special feelings for this historic city.

  But sadly, due to fierce and frequent wars, this beautiful city has experienced hardships and scars. During World War II alone, it was bombed twice: in 1941, the attack by German troops paralyzed all the public service systems in this city, and the destroyed buildings included the National Library and most government agencies. At the end of the war in 1944, British and American planes bombed Beicheng under the Nazi occupation of Germany for another half year. After the end of World War II, more than one third of the houses in this city were in ruins. In 1999, this modern city was attacked by NATO again.

  After entering the new century, this ancient city finally ushered in a relatively quiet period, and Belgrade was able to regain its glory. Today, beautiful sava river passes through the urban area, dividing Belgrade into two parts, an antique old city on one side and a new city with modern buildings on the other.

  People can easily stroll in the Mikhail Square in the center of the city, or walk in the artistic old street of Scatania. You can also climb the ancient castle in Kalemegdan Park and look out. Here, the clear sava river pours into the long Danube, and the whole city has a panoramic view.

  On 17th, it will welcome the distinguished guests from China and continue to write the friendship story between two legendary countries.

Placing gambling machines in supermarkets led to more than 20 million yuan and 278 people were arrested.

  Xu Peng correspondent Chang Yongzhen recently learned from Zaozhuang Public Security Bureau of Shandong Province that after three months of careful layout, Xuecheng Public Security Bureau destroyed criminal gangs that set up casinos in Shandong, Jiangsu, Anhui and other places, arrested 278 suspects including Zhou, destroyed 404 dens and seized 380 gambling machines, involving more than 20 million yuan. To this end, the Ministry of Public Security specially sent a congratulatory message to congratulate the bureau on successfully detecting the case of "6 19" opening a casino.

  The time goes back to April 28th, 2018. During the daily public security management, the police of Tao Zhuang Police Station of Xuecheng Branch found that someone in a supermarket in this town used gambling machines to gamble. The police immediately inspected the supermarket and seized four gambling machines on the spot. Then the police summoned the supermarket owner Cao to the police station for investigation. During the inquiry, the keen police found that Cao was unclear about the basic situation of machine maintenance and the amount of gambling funds, and suspected that the case was otherwise hidden.

  On May 12th, Xuecheng Branch continued to investigate Cao’s suspicion of opening a casino as a criminal case. With the unremitting efforts of the police, Cao confessed the basic facts of the case. Since April 2017, he and others have placed gambling machines and fishing machines in supermarkets operated by individuals for others to gamble, involving more than 30,000 yuan. At the same time, Cao confessed that the gambling machine in his store was placed by Anhui people, and Anhui people would regularly collect gambling money and maintain the gambling machine.

  After investigation, Cao was an Anhui native who set up gambling outlets in many provinces. According to the idea of "information flow looking for clues, capital flow looking for evidence", the task force started with the bills involved and the flow of funds, made full use of big data resources such as public security cloud and police thousand degrees, and with the technical support of relevant business departments of Zaozhuang Public Security Bureau, strengthened in-depth analysis and judgment on the information of criminal suspects’ social activities, information communication, etc., and made comprehensive analysis of public security big data, screening and tracking at different levels, and carefully combed the network and organizational structure of the criminal gang.

  After preliminary investigation, it was determined that the leader of the gang was Zhou Mougan, a native of Huaibei, Anhui Province, and Zhou Moushuai and Chen Mou Dong were its backbone forces. The crimes were committed in ten leeway cities such as Anhui, Shandong and Jiangsu provinces.

  On the basis of fully grasping the suspect’s foothold, on July 17, more than 30 police officers of the task force went to Huaibei City to carry out the network-closing operation, and arrested 10 gang members such as the suspect Zhou Mogan. Shortly thereafter, the 10 action teams of the task force rushed to Yicheng, Shizhong, Shanting, Tengzhou and other districts and cities in Zaozhuang City, Suzhou City in Anhui Province, Xuzhou City in Jiangsu Province, Linyi, Jining, Heze and other surrounding cities in our province, respectively, and concentrated on the key targets that were sorted out in advance, and arrested 22 suspects.

  On August 8, 2018, in accordance with the unified deployment of the "broken chain" action of the Ministry of Public Security, the area involved in the case carried out a centralized sweeping operation, and 38 gambling machines of various types were seized, 5 people were detained in criminal detention, 1 person was released on bail pending trial, and 7 people were administratively punished. At present, the case has arrested 278 suspects, destroyed 404 dens and seized 380 gambling machines.

  Because the case spans many provinces and cities, involving many people, it is very difficult to investigate the case, and the Ministry of Public Security, provincial offices and municipal bureaus have given strong support in technical strength, regional coordination, judgment and analysis. Due to the seriousness of the case, Xuecheng Branch established a task force with Sun Hongwei, deputy head of Xuecheng District Government and director of the branch, as the commander, and the main responsible comrades of various police types as members. More than 130 police officers and auxiliary police officers were deployed to participate in the investigation of the project. All police types and departments firmly established the idea of "playing a game of chess", fighting joint warfare, synthetic warfare and regional coordinated warfare, and formed a concerted effort to tackle the problem.

Multi-win situation of government procurement

Improve public services, help overcome poverty, lead green environmental protection and support small and medium-sized enterprises.
Multi-win situation of government procurement

In 2019, the national government procurement scale was 3,306.7 billion yuan, accounting for 10% and 3.3% of the national fiscal expenditure and GDP respectively. The government procurement system not only regulates and saves financial expenditure, but also undertakes more policy functions, which strongly supports the development of various national undertakings. With the continuous improvement of standardization and transparency of government procurement, it has a direct role in promoting budget performance management and promoting government affairs openness.

On December 29th, 2020, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the Administrative Measures for Government Procurement to Promote the Development of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises to further support the development of small and medium-sized enterprises in the field of government procurement. Government procurement helps "small" and "micro", and the measures are practical.

In recent years, the term "government procurement" has frequently entered the public eye. What policy role can this expenditure mode play? How to further improve government procurement? The reporter conducted an interview on this.

The scope of government procurement is constantly expanding and its functions are constantly upgrading.

In 2019, the national government procurement scale was 3,306.7 billion yuan, accounting for 10% and 3.3% of the national fiscal expenditure and GDP respectively. The government procurement system not only regulates and saves financial expenditure, but also undertakes more policy functions, which strongly supports the development of various national undertakings.

-Improve the efficiency in the use of government procurement funds for public services and safeguard social public interests.

"Government purchasing services" is a major innovation in the way government services are provided in recent years-from the services required by the government to public services, from the initial sanitation cleaning services to public legal services, public cultural services, public sports services, medical and health services, education services, disabled services, old-age services, youth services and other fields.

On January 3, 2020, the Ministry of Finance promulgated the Measures for the Administration of Government Procurement of Services, which regulated the subjects, undertakers and contents of purchases. "In the future, public services in the field of people’s livelihood will be more provided by the market, and the government will choose to undertake the main link and apply the relevant policies and regulations on government procurement, which will enhance the cost performance of the purchased services and safeguard national interests and social public interests." Yang Zhiyong, vice president of the Institute of Finance and Economics of China Academy of Social Sciences, said.

-purchasing agricultural products from poverty-stricken areas to help fight poverty.

At present, "poverty-relief commodities" from 22 provinces and 832 poverty-stricken counties in China are being purchased in batches by budget purchasing units on the "online sales platform for agricultural and sideline products in poverty-stricken areas" built by the Ministry of Finance and the National Supply and Marketing Federation. As of December 27th, 2020, this government procurement e-commerce platform, referred to as "832 platform", has put more than 90,000 items on the shelves, with a total turnover of 8 billion yuan.

"Integrating government procurement policies into the fight against poverty will help the poor to increase their income and get rid of poverty, and promote the stable poverty alleviation of the poor and the sustainable development of industries in poverty-stricken areas." Shen Xuefeng, a researcher at the China Academy of Fiscal Science, said.

-expanding the scope of green procurement and giving play to the demonstration effect of environmental protection.

"Coal to electricity projects, urban black and odorous water treatment, water source protection, soil pollution prevention and control projects, mainly by government procurement. In addition, the use of energy-saving and environmentally-friendly products by government procurement has a significant leading demonstration effect on the formation of energy-saving and emission-reducing and green consumption habits in the whole society. " Yang Zhiyong said.

The data shows that in the "bill" of national government procurement in 2019, the national compulsory and priority procurement of energy-saving and water-saving products was 63.37 billion yuan, accounting for 90% of the procurement scale of similar products, and the national priority procurement of environmental protection products was 71.87 billion yuan, accounting for 88% of the procurement scale of similar products.

-expand the share of procurement contracts for small and medium-sized enterprises and support the realization of national macro-control objectives.

As early as 2011, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the Interim Measures for Government Procurement to Promote the Development of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises, which expanded the share of small and medium-sized enterprises in government procurement contracts through measures such as reserving shares and evaluating preferential treatment. In 2019, the contract amount awarded to small and medium-sized enterprises by national government procurement was 2,451.91 billion yuan, accounting for 74.1% of the national government procurement scale. The new policy at the end of 2020 will further expand the share of government procurement for small and medium-sized enterprises, which will more strongly support the development of such enterprises.

Improve the standardization and transparency of procurement, and promote the openness of government affairs by "understanding accounts"

In July, 2020, with the supplier successfully completing the online decryption of bidding documents in the remote bid opening hall of "Zhengcaiyun" platform of Guangxi Government Procurement Center, the property service procurement project of Guangxi Public Resource Trading Center entered the bid opening procedure.

"Opening bids without meeting" lightens the burden of bidding enterprises, is conducive to epidemic prevention and control, and also improves the procurement efficiency, which is the latest achievement of "internet plus government procurement" reform. Online operation in the whole process of bid opening and evaluation, leaving traces step by step, and open and transparent online inquiry and response can effectively reduce corruption in the field of government procurement.

"Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the government procurement management system has been improved day by day, and the system of government procurement transactions with public bidding as the main procurement method has been continuously enriched, the’ internet plus government procurement’ has been steadily promoted, the construction of central and local electronic stores has been strengthened, the procurement efficiency has been improved, the regulations and practices that hinder fair competition in the field of government procurement have been comprehensively cleaned up, and the business environment for government procurement has been optimized." The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Finance said.

In recent years, it is the top priority of government procurement management to establish the whole process information disclosure mechanism and carry out "transactions under the sun". In 2020, the Ministry of Finance made it clear that all procurement projects implemented by the central budget units should disclose their procurement intentions to the public in accordance with regulations, further improve the transparency of government procurement, ensure all market entities to participate in government procurement activities on an equal footing, and improve procurement performance.

In recent years, all localities have continuously improved the transparency of procurement, and achieved remarkable savings. For example, the government procurement center of the central state organs saved 3,150,650 yuan in procurement funds in the disabled elderly care service project of the China Red Cross Society Career Development Center, with a saving rate of 39.38%.

"Improving the government procurement policy not only saves financial funds, but also has a direct role in promoting budget performance management, promoting government affairs openness and curbing corruption." Yang Zhiyong said.

Accelerate the establishment of a modern government procurement system, expand the scale of procurement and improve procurement efficiency.

"China’s government procurement system has made gratifying achievements, but it is not mature enough to fully meet the requirements of the current national governance capacity and modernization of the governance system." Xu Hongcai, Vice Minister of Finance, believes that there are some problems in the current government procurement system, such as extensive management of procurement transaction system, poor policy transmission mechanism, and the performance level of procurement agencies and evaluation experts needs to be improved.

In Xu Hongcai’s view, these problems will lead to low procurement efficiency and satisfaction, and limit the implementation effect of procurement policies.

To this end, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Finance said that in order to solve the current problems in government procurement, relevant reform measures will be steadily promoted in accordance with the requirements of the "Deepening the Reform Plan of Government Procurement System" adopted by the Central Committee for Deep Reform.

For example, in view of the shortcomings of the current government procurement law in the implementation process, the government procurement laws and regulations are revised. For another example, based on the principle of "who purchases, who is responsible", establish and improve the purchaser’s responsibility mechanism for procurement results, improve the internal control management of purchasers, and improve the purchaser’s professional procurement ability.

"In addition, it is necessary to further improve the government procurement transaction mechanism and strengthen the government procurement policy function." The person in charge said that it is necessary to promote the realization of the procurement goal of "high quality and good price", and clarify the application of different competition scopes and different procurement methods in combination with different project demand characteristics, performance objectives and market supply and demand, so as to improve procurement efficiency and capital application efficiency. At the same time, efforts should be made to build a standard system of government procurement requirements and improve the implementation measures of government procurement policies.

"International government procurement generally accounts for about 15% of GDP, and in China it is less than 4%, and there is still great potential to be tapped." Yang Zhiyong said that the government procurement laws and regulations system should be further improved, and a more scientific government procurement system should be designed according to the requirements of incentive compatibility mechanism, so as to stimulate the enthusiasm of government purchasers and fully release the policy role of government procurement. "In the final analysis, it is still necessary to accelerate the establishment of a modern government procurement system that adapts to the characteristics of market transactions and stimulates the enthusiasm of all participants."

  Article 38 These Measures shall come into force as of the date of promulgation.

China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission issued seven opening measures: encouraging overseas financial institutions to invest in wealth management subsidiaries.

  According to the website of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission continues to promote the opening of banking and insurance industry to the outside world, optimize the business environment for foreign investors in the financial sector, enrich market supply, enhance market vitality, enhance competitiveness and promote the healthy development of China’s financial industry. Recently, seven new policies and measures for opening to the outside world have been studied and released.

  I. Encourage overseas financial institutions to participate in the establishment and investment of financial subsidiaries of commercial banks.

  The Measures for the Administration of Financial Subsidiaries of Commercial Banks clearly stipulates that financial subsidiaries of banks can be wholly-owned by commercial banks, or jointly funded with domestic and foreign financial institutions and domestic non-financial enterprises. Introducing foreign financial institutions with expertise and international influence in wealth management and investing in bank wealth management subsidiaries is conducive to introducing advanced and mature investment concepts, business strategies, incentive mechanisms and compliance risk control systems in the international asset management industry, further enriching the supply of financial products, stimulating the vitality of market competition and promoting the healthy and orderly development of China’s bank wealth management business. China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission will guide qualified and willing banks to strengthen active contact with relevant foreign-funded financial institutions, and continue to encourage and guide bank wealth management subsidiaries to do a good job in introducing foreign capital.

  Two, allow overseas asset management institutions and subsidiaries of Chinese banks or insurance companies to set up a foreign-controlled wealth management company.

  China’s asset management market has a huge scale and development potential, and it is difficult for existing asset management institutions to fully meet the rapidly growing diversified market demand. Compared with international advanced asset management institutions, most of the asset management institutions of Chinese banks and insurance companies, including wealth management subsidiaries, have been established for a short time and have less experience. At present, Chinese banks, insurance companies and foreign advanced asset management institutions are mainly engaged in business cooperation, allowing joint ventures to set up foreign-controlled wealth management companies, which is conducive to introducing international advanced asset management practices and professional experience, promoting the steady development of asset management industry and capital market, giving play to the respective advantages of Chinese and foreign asset management institutions, further enriching market players and business products, and meeting the diversified service needs of investors. At the same time, the existing asset management subsidiaries of Chinese banks and insurance companies can complement each other with their foreign wealth management companies, and develop at a moderate dislocation.

  Overseas asset management institutions and subsidiaries of Chinese banks or insurance companies are allowed to jointly set up foreign-controlled wealth management companies. In the early stage, pilot methods can be adopted to give priority to supporting the entry of mature and stable wealth management institutions recognized in foreign markets. Both RMB funds can be raised and some foreign currency long-term funds can be raised. In the pilot process, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission will pay more attention to the professionalism, prudence and stability of supervision, pay more attention to the supervision after the event, guide the steady development of institutional compliance through on-site inspection and off-site supervision, sum up the pilot experience in a timely manner, and study and expand the pilot scope in a timely manner.

  Three, allow overseas financial institutions to invest in the establishment and shareholding of pension management companies.

  At present, China’s pension management market is dominated by the second pillar enterprise annuity fund management, with limited scale and growth. However, the domestic pension management company is still in the pilot stage, and the pilot adopts the method of one mature company and one approved company. There is only one Jianxin pension management company established by CCB. Allowing foreign investors to set up pension management companies is conducive to increasing the types of subjects, enhancing market vitality, introducing mature pension management experience and improving the level of pension investment management. In the next step, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission will promote the improvement of relevant laws and regulations, and continue to adopt the method of "one mature company, one approved company", and work with relevant ministries and commissions to do a good job in the licensing of pension management companies.

  Four, support the establishment of wholly foreign-owned or equity money brokerage companies.

  In 2005, the State Council approved the pilot of money brokerage companies. Since the pilot, five money brokerage companies have been established to actively carry out transactions in foreign exchange market, money market, bond market and derivative products market at home and abroad, which has played a positive role in activating China’s financial market, improving transaction efficiency and reducing transaction costs. At present, the top five money brokerage companies in the world have all participated in the establishment of five money brokerage companies in China through joint ventures.

  Further increasing the proportion of foreign shares in money brokerage companies is conducive to giving full play to the management advantages of foreign shareholders, improving the operating efficiency of money brokerage companies, promoting orderly competition in the industry, and improving the transparency and transaction efficiency of financial markets. China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission actively supports Chinese and foreign shareholders of existing currency brokerage companies to determine their own foreign share ratios on the basis of equal consultation. At the same time, on the basis of comprehensive evaluation of the impact of newly established currency brokerage companies on the existing market competition pattern, we will steadily promote the establishment of new foreign currency brokerage companies.

  5. Shorten the transition period from 51% to 100% for foreign-funded life insurance companies to 2020. 

  On July 2, 2019, Premier Li Keqiang delivered a special speech at the opening ceremony of the 2019 Davos Forum, saying that the original stipulation of canceling the foreign life insurance share ratio limit in 2021 would be advanced to 2020. Abolishing the share ratio restriction of foreign-funded life insurance companies will help attract more high-quality foreign-funded insurance institutions to enter the China market, introduce more advanced business concepts and more diversified life insurance products, enhance the vitality of the life insurance market and provide better services for the real economy. In the next step, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission will promote the promulgation of "Regulations on the Administration of Foreign-funded Insurance Companies in People’s Republic of China (PRC)" and other relevant laws and regulations, and timely implement the regulations in relevant administrative licensing work. At the same time, strengthen post-event supervision and maintain market order.

  Six, cancel the provisions of domestic insurance companies holding the shares of insurance asset management companies shall not be less than 75%, allowing foreign investors to hold more than 25% of the shares. 

  Loosening the restrictions on the foreign shareholding ratio of insurance asset management companies is conducive to absorbing the experience and practices of excellent overseas insurance institutions, stimulating the vitality of the domestic insurance asset management market, promoting the improvement of the asset management capabilities of insurance asset management companies, and better serving the preservation and appreciation of insurance assets. 

  In the next step, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission will promptly revise the Interim Provisions on the Administration of Insurance Asset Management Companies and implement the opening-up measures. While opening wider to the outside world, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission will continue to improve the regulatory requirements of insurance asset management companies, strengthen the management of shareholders’ qualifications, further strengthen the continuous compliance requirements of insurance asset management companies, and effectively guard against various risks. 

  Seven, relax the access conditions of foreign-funded insurance companies, cancel the 30-year operating life requirement.

  At present, foreign insurance companies to set up foreign-funded insurance companies in China need to meet the requirements of operating insurance business for more than 30 years. In recent years, with the deepening of opening to the outside world, most foreign insurance companies in Fortune Global 500 have entered China and played an active role in the insurance market in China. The cancellation of the 30-year operating life requirement has created conditions for foreign insurance companies with operating characteristics and expertise but insufficient operating life to come to China, which is conducive to further enriching insurance market players and insurance professional services and promoting the high-quality development of the insurance industry.

  Welcome more qualified foreign insurance companies to set up business offices in China, combine their advanced experience with the reality of China, and promote each other with Chinese companies in the competition to jointly serve the real economy and the increasingly diversified financial service needs of consumers. China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission will immediately start the revision of relevant laws and regulations, and put them into practice upon completion.

ByteDance and Iqiyi are constantly making new moves, and the long and short video platforms are in close combat?

Wen | Different View Finance

In the field of long video, three video platforms, iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video, have formed a "three-legged" trend. Three platform opportunities can lead the development direction of the long video industry.

On February 28th, Beijing time, iQiyi (NASDAQ: IQ) announced the unaudited financial report for the fourth quarter and the whole year as of December 31st, 2019. The financial report shows that in the fourth quarter of 2019, iQiyi’s revenue was 7.5 billion yuan and its net loss was 2.5 billion yuan. Both revenue and net loss were better than expected.

Although iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video are backed by BAT, they still lose money and continue to burn money. The profit seems to be in the foreseeable future. Judging from the latest financial report released by iQiyi, the loss is narrowing. Is this a positive signal?

Why is the long video platform difficult to make a profit from the iQiyi financial report?

According to the financial report, Iqiyi’s Q4 revenue in 2019 was 7.497 billion yuan, up 6.7% from 7.027 billion yuan in the same period of last year, up only 1.4% from 7.397 billion yuan in the previous quarter.

As can be seen from the above figure, although iQiyi’s revenue maintained growth, the year-on-year growth rate continued to decline. Iqiyi’s income mainly consists of membership services, online advertising services, content distribution and other income.

In the fourth quarter, Iqiyi’s membership income was 3.861 billion yuan, up 20.6% from 3.201 billion yuan in the same period of last year, up 3.9% from 3.717 billion yuan in the third quarter. In the fourth quarter, membership service revenue accounted for 51.5%, making it the largest source of income for iQiyi. Iqiyi said that the revenue growth was mainly due to the high-quality content and diversified operations, which promoted the growth of the number of subscribers.

Gong Yu, founder, director and CEO of Aiqiyi, said that the revenue of Aiqiyi’s membership business increased by 36% in 2019, and the number of subscribed members reached 107 million. Looking forward to the next decade, the upcoming continuous innovation of 5G commercial and artificial intelligence technologies will bring great opportunities to Aiqiyi. As users in China are more and more willing to pay for high-quality content and use convenient payment methods, they will jointly bring great growth potential to the iQiyi business.

According to the financial report, as of the end of the fourth quarter, the number of subscribed members of iQiyi reached 107 million, and the number of subscribed members increased by 22% year-on-year. On the whole, the growth of subscription members is also slowing down, and with the decline of demographic dividend, membership growth seems to have peaked.

Online advertising revenue was 1.883 billion yuan, down 14.6% from 2.204 billion yuan in the same period of last year and down 8.9% from 2.067 billion yuan in the third quarter. In the fourth quarter, online advertising revenue accounted for 25.1%, and the contribution of online advertising revenue continued to decline. Iqiyi said that macroeconomic challenges have led to a decline in online advertising revenue. Yiguan Finance believes that the decline in online advertising revenue is also related to the rapid development of short video platforms. With the rise and rapid development of short video platforms such as Aauto Quicker, Tik Tok and bilibili, users’ attention and advertisers’ budget have shifted, and the advertising business of long video network has been robbed of "share".

Content distribution revenue was 878 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 68%. Content distribution income mainly comes from broadcasting authorized content. In 2019, hit dramas, such as Little Joy, Dear, Love, and Joy of Life, were distributed by iQiyi. From the perspective of revenue growth, the distribution of these hit dramas has achieved good results.

In the fourth quarter, the income from other businesses of iQiyi was 874 million yuan, down 21% year-on-year. In 2019, the annual revenue was 3.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 30%. This is mainly due to the growth of many vertical businesses, especially the strong growth of game business after the acquisition of Tianxiang Mutual Entertainment.

Thanks to the reduction of content cost, iQiyi’s Q4 net loss in 2019 was 2.49 billion yuan, narrowing by 28% year-on-year and 32.6% quarter-on-quarter. However, in 2019, iQiyi lost 10.3 billion yuan for the whole year, still showing an expanding trend year-on-year.

According to the financial report, in Q4 of 2019, the operating cost of iQiyi was 7.914 billion yuan, and the content cost was 5.7 billion yuan, accounting for 72% of the operating cost. Content cost includes copyright purchase cost and content production cost.

Gong Yu, founder, director and CEO of iQiyi, mentioned in the earnings conference call that the content cost in 2019 only increased by 6% because of the continuous optimization of the content structure. The financial report shows that in 2019, the content cost of iQiyi was 22.2 billion yuan.

As can be seen from the balance sheet of iQiyi, the content assets of iQiyi include current assets-net value of copyright content, non-current assets-net value of copyright content, and non-current assets-net value of self-made content.

The financial report shows that as of December 31, 2019, iQiyi’s self-made content assets were 4.355 billion yuan, an increase of 16.6% compared with 3.736 billion yuan in the same period of last year; At the end of the period, the authorized content assets totaled 7.51 billion yuan, down 3.7% year-on-year.

From the changes of self-made content assets and authorized content assets, iQiyi achieves structural optimization by increasing the proportion of self-made content and decreasing the proportion of authorized content.

Gong Yu said at the conference call that film and television plays are still the main driving force for members to add value. At present, the hit dramas on the platform of iQiyi, such as Joy of Life and Dear, Love, all belong to copyrighted works.

Self-made video content, which will involve IP copyright purchase of film and television dramas, actor pay, shooting and other production costs, which are all important items of cost expenditure. The self-made variety "Qi Pa Shuo" has continued for six levels, and the topic heat has remained unchanged. "Sword Dynasty", starring Li Xian, a streaming star, is popular in Iqiyi. Although the limitation of star pay and the rising trend of drama prices slow down, the cost of purchasing copyright and the cost of self-made drama and variety shows decrease, it still cannot reverse the loss of video platforms.

In the case of membership growth meeting the ceiling, video websites began to change their thinking and tap the value of membership. If video websites want to turn losses, they need to constantly try new business models.

In terms of member value-added services, the charging mode of "member-on-demand in advance" launched by the video platform was criticized by the whole network and was questioned as "ugly", but it did not stop the determination of video websites to implement the charging mode of "member-on-demand in advance", which will become a normal broadcasting mode in the future.

Gong Yu thinks that although there are relatively few dramas adopting this mode at present, it accounts for a small proportion of the total revenue, but this mode is successful. "In the future, we will take this mode as a normal way of broadcasting. At present, the impact of advanced on-demand on the average revenue per user (ARPU) in the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2020 is not great, but it will be an important way to improve ARPU in the future. "

Iqiyi is constantly changing in the form of advertisements, such as patch advertisements and original small theater advertisements for online dramas. Iqiyi is also constantly trying to make use of advertising resources. Although Iqiyi members have purchased VIP members, they still have to watch advertisements. For example, in a 45-minute episode, all kinds of advertisements are inserted in the title, preview, film and ending, and even members are not spared. Some members can close it manually, while others can’t close it by force.

Iqiyi also said that the membership fee has increased. With the development of video websites for many years, people in China have a certain understanding of the paid membership model, but the acceptance of the paid membership model in China is not so high. In the long-term competition, video websites attract paying members through promotion, although it can boost revenue growth, but it is difficult to achieve profitability. Under the situation of tripartite confrontation, if only one party announces the price increase, it is likely to cause the loss of users.

Video websites are still content-oriented. Yiguan Finance has conducted a small-scale survey. Most paid members of video websites said that a video website member can almost meet their own needs for watching movies/dramas. Which platform can meet your own viewing needs, you will choose which platform, and you will not love a certain platform alone. There are also some users who have registered a number of platform members, but they will not buy annual members, but will only choose monthly membership when chasing a favorite film and television drama.

From this point of view, the loyalty of video platform users remains to be assessed. Whether the video website has enough rich content such as TV dramas and variety shows is the key to retain users. After all, users pay for high-quality content, and the continuous output of high-quality content is the key to the continuous growth and retention of paying users on the platform.

In addition, some insiders told Yiguan Finance that there is another factor in the loss of video websites, that is, the pressure on servers and bandwidth. The video platform should ensure that hundreds of thousands or even millions of people can watch online at the same time, and sometimes upload data traffic such as barrage. These fixed expenses are not small.

With the sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, everyone was forced to stay at home and play drama. As a result, when I wanted to meet you was updated on February 26th, iQiyi collapsed, and "iQiyi collapsed" was returned to Weibo for hot search. From the technical principle, there are two reasons for the server crash, one is that the server content is tight, and the other is that the service design is flawed. It seems that Ali, JD.COM and others built their own cloud computing data centers for a reason.

In the layout, short videos, long videos and short videos erode each other and fight hand in hand?

Typical Internet users will allocate their online entertainment time to many different fields, including video (Youaiteng’s three long video websites; Tik Tok, Aauto Quicker and other short video sites) game videos (Tiger Tooth, bilibili, Betta Fish, etc.) and news push platforms. With the disappearance of traffic bonus, the peak of membership and the continuous loss, iQiyi needs new stories to enhance its commercial imagination. With the rapid rise of short videos, Iqiyi is constantly trying to seek new breakthroughs.

In fact, iQiyi has launched a variety of short video products, such as gingerbread, whale eating, natto, Jinshi and many videos. Although it failed to attract enough attention, it never gave up. Currently in the "Small Video" entrance of the top column of iQiyi app.

According to Tech Planet, iQiyi recently launched a short video featuring short videos of young trends. Iqiyi launched the "Shake Short Video" this time, on the one hand, it is an expansion and attempt of its own short video classification, on the other hand, it is to seize the popularity of 5G, constantly innovate, accelerate trial and error, and strive to create an explosive short video APP.

For the layout competition in the field of short video, at the conference call of Iqiyi’s 2019 Q4 and annual financial report, Gong Yu, the founder and CEO of Iqiyi, announced that he planned to launch a YouTube mode App called "On Time", and said that Ge Hong, who had rich technical and management experience in companies such as Facebook and Airbnb, would fully lead the business. This seems to show the determination of short videos in the layout of iQiyi.

It is reported that there will be two main categories of "on-demand" video content. The first category is PUGC content, which is mainly uploaded by MCN, individuals and professional organizations. In addition, the long video content of iQiyi will also be played on-demand, thus forming a strategic synergy of "long video+short video".

The content production methods of short videos are mainly PGC (professional production content) and UGC (user-produced content), which are mainly realized by advertising. The long video is either self-made or needs to buy copyright, and the realization methods are mainly user payment and advertising.

In the field of short and medium videos, iQiyi will face the competition from headline department, bilibili and Tik Tok.

Headline has a huge user base and a high daily activity rate, which lays the foundation for the commercial realization of long video. Headlines rely on its good recommendation algorithm to analyze and summarize users’ video preferences and playing habits through big data, and apply them to headline-made videos. They can even customize headline users’ exclusive homemade dramas and homemade variety shows according to the results of big data analysis and user preferences.

Compared with short video platforms, the advantages of long video platforms such as Youaiteng come from the copyright and IP resources of a large number of content creators. Youaiteng takes the lead in the segmentation field in the short video industry through its own areas of expertise. Strict supervision has, to some extent, "forced" the short video head platform to enhance the awareness of copyright, continuously expand the content map, and cultivate and expand the long video user base.

With the sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, all the films for the Spring Festival in 2020 were withdrawn. On January 24th, Lost in Russia, directed by Xú Zhēng, announced that he would cooperate with ByteDance’s platform, and the "Headline System" short video platform (Tik Tok/Watermelon/Volcano) was broadcasted independently for free, which aroused the attention and heated discussion in the industry. Many people think that this is not only a symbol of headlines entering the long video and film industry.

With the expansion of users, long and short video platforms have already eroded each other. Short video platforms pay more and more attention to original content, and the competition for original content between long and short video platforms will become more and more fierce.

On the National Heroes on the Screen: Supporting the Backbone of the Nation from "Dangkou Fengyun"

Poster of "Dangkou Fengyun"


Special feature of 1905 film network In the splendid history of the Chinese nation for 5,000 years, there have been countless epic national heroes, and their stories have been constantly reshaped in various artistic forms. Since the birth of China’s films, there have been endless films praising national heroes. This year, there are still many films on this theme in China film market. In addition to the hit "Wandering in the Wind", films based on the Sino-French War in the late Qing Dynasty will also be shown in the summer file. This gives us a chance to review the light and shadow and capture all the great national hero images on the screen.

 

China has a vast territory since ancient times, and wars have been going on constantly, so a fighting hero like Yue Fei has emerged. With the rapid expansion of western forces, the Ming and Qing Dynasties, where wars were frequent, became a historical opportunity for national heroes to be tempered and born in the war. The story of the movie Dangkou Fengyun took place during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty. The Japanese pirates constantly harassed and plundered the southeast coast of China, and the government troops were helpless in the face of foreign pirates, and the local people were in dire straits. Qi Jiguang, a young military attache from a military family, came to Zhejiang to take charge of the military affairs against Japan. In order to organize a truly effective army in the face of the enemy, Qi Jiguang recruited brave miners from the local area for strict training, and formed the "Qijiajun" which made the enemy fear.

 

Qi Jiguang has both civil and military skills in history, so it is wise to choose Chiu Man-Cheuk, who is a martial arts player with elegant temperament, to play in the movie "Dangkou Fengyun". Yu Dayou, another famous anti-Japanese actor in the film, is played by Sammo Hung, a veteran action film director and actor. The incarnation of the two kung fu superstars as historical celebrities has undoubtedly enhanced the visibility of the film from a commercial point of view. However, the point of view of "Wandering in the Wind" is not limited to this. Restoring history through grand war scenes is the focus of the film. Director Chen Jiashang studied Qi Jiguang’s relevant historical materials for nearly ten years, and finally chose Qi Jiguang’s experience of training Qi Jiajun as a "special force" as a breakthrough point to show the fighting spirit inspired by the generals, soldiers and coastal people in the face of the Japanese invasion.

Stills of Lin Zexu

 

Compared with those national heroes who became famous for their martial arts, Destruction of Opium at Humen’s Lin Zexu became a widely spread example for his boldness and courage. Lin Zexu’s deeds have been put on the big screen many times. The two most influential editions are Lin Zexu in 1959 and directed by Xie Jin in 1997. The two films are respectively starred by Zhao Dan, the earliest "national male god" in China films, and Bao Guoan, who is well-known for his role of Cao Cao in the TV series Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Lin Zexu, played by Zhao Dan, is elegant and indifferent, while Bao Guoan emphasizes his concern for the country and the people. There are many subtle differences in temperament between the two versions of Lin Zexu, but on the whole, they all depict Lin Zexu’s upright and unyielding national character in the face of political enemies and aggressors from different angles.

Stills of Opium War

 

In particular, the film Opium War, which creatively added a large section of English drama in all English, examined the situation at that time from a different perspective. The film was released on the eve of Hong Kong’s return to China. At that time, after more than 20 years of reform and opening up, China’s national strength increased greatly, and people’s material and cultural lives were much richer than before. As the film says, only when a nation really stands up can it face up to and reflect on its humiliating history. Many times, the film described the smoking ban situation at that time with smoky and dim scenes, and at the same time, it also alluded to the unbearable political environment. Local officials committed crimes and bullied their superiors and deluded their subordinates everywhere. In this case of corruption and decline, the film vividly depicts a loyal and wise veteran Lin Zexu, and his "loyalty" and "righteousness" are also particularly deplorable.

 

Lin Zexu’s greatest historical achievement lies not only in hosting Destruction of Opium at Humen to show Chinese’s determination and perseverance, but also in his inspiration to the later generations to "open their eyes to the world". Under the guidance of this thought, the Westernization Movement of "learning from foreigners and strengthening ourselves" rose, and the Qing government set up the strongest fleet in Asia — — Beiyang navy. In this fleet, a heroic hero was born, whose name was Deng Shichang.

Stills of the Sino-Japanese War

 

In 1894, in the Sino-Japanese Lunar New Year, the Japanese naval joint fleet broke into the waters of China and challenged the Beiyang Navy in China. The film "Sino-Japanese War" released in 1962 reflects this history. It focuses on portraying the heroic image of Deng Shichang, the leader of Zhiyuan Ship, and contrasts it with Li Hongzhang and Fang Boqian, who are weak and afraid of war. The film is starred by actor Li Moran, who successfully created the hero Deng Shichang, a classic character in the history of China film, with his generous figure and resolute temperament. Although the ship in the film is different from the real history due to the limitation of technical level, the thrilling naval battle scene left a deep impression on that generation of China audience. Countless people feel sorry for the complete defeat of Beiyang Navy, but Deng Shichang, played by Li Moran, commanded the scarred Zhiyuan to crash into the joint fleet’s Yoshino, and this scene showed the spirit of death, which still deeply inspired the audience.

Poster of 1894 Sino-Japanese War

 

Fifty years after the release of "The Storm of the Sino-Japanese War", the audience welcomed the movie "1894 Sino-Japanese War" with the same theme, which was shot by the famous war film director Feng Xiaoning. The film increased the feud between the protagonist Deng Shichang and the enemy officer Ito Sukeyuki before the naval battle, and strengthened the dramatic tension of the whole story. Most of the main actors in the film showed credible acting skills. Although as a film released in 2012, its costume props and war scenes are still far from those of the current large-scale commercial films, the film has created a different kind of tragic, and this tragic comes from the appeal of national heroes themselves.

 

The Opium War made China lose Hongkong, and the failure of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 forced China to admit the Japanese occupation of Taiwan Province. It was not until half a century later that the people of China won an all-round victory in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression that Taiwan Province was recovered. And this troubled treasure island is not the first time occupied by invaders. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, she once fell into the hands of Dutch invaders. The Chinese people on Taiwan Province Island could not bear the exploitation and torture of the Dutch, so they had to turn to the motherland on the other side of the Strait. Zheng Chenggong, as the mainstay of the generals in the Southern Ming Dynasty, organized a fleet to sail for Taiwan Province without hesitation after learning what happened to his compatriots, and with the cooperation of compatriots on the island, he defeated the cunning and ferocious enemy and brought Taiwan Province back to China.

Stills of Hero Zheng Chenggong


Zheng Chenggong’s story was put on the screen by director Wu Ziniu in 2001. The film "Hero Zheng Chenggong" also stars Chiu Man-Cheuk. From Qi Jiguang to Zheng Chenggong, it seems that Chiu Man-Cheuk really has some unique temperament, which accords with the audience’s traditional cognition of national heroes. Compared with Qi Jiguang’s high spirits, the film adds a sadness and resentment to Zheng Chenggong’s ruin. Under Chiu Man-Cheuk’s meticulous interpretation, the heroes are full of masculine beauty, and also perfectly express the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait’s deep affection and their common desire for reunification.

 

Before the Japanese rebellion in the Ming Dynasty, China rarely encountered foreign enemies from the sea; In the Qing Dynasty after the Ming Dynasty, just like the Dutch invaders in Hero Zheng Chenggong, more difficult enemies began to cross the sea from further places. The movie The Battle of the Dragons, which will be released in the summer, is such a story background. In the 1980s, French troops from the European continent brazenly invaded China’s vassal Viet Nam, and approached China’s border, killing China’s border people, and the Sino-French war broke out. In the anti-aggression war, including this war in modern times, China is no longer confronted with an enemy as savage and backward as the Japanese pirates in the Ming Dynasty, but a great power with more advanced weapons and systems. It is under this circumstance that China’s soldiers and civilians, led by veteran Feng Zicai, have shown their tenacious resistance and national integrity.

"Battle of the Dragon" poster

 

In the movie Battle of the Dragons, in order to save the situation of losing ground, the Qing government reactivated Feng Zicai, who was old and retired. And he didn’t live up to the trust of the country. At the age of nearly 70, he personally fought with a knife and gun, bravely fighting the tall and strong black soldiers of the French army, and finally led the Qing army to win the victory in Zhennan. Old general Feng Zicai is also a well-deserved national hero.

 

From The Storm of the Sino-Japanese War to The Battle of the Dragons, generations of filmmakers have created vivid and touching images of national heroes on the big screen. For thousands of years, it is under the inspiration of these heroes that countless Chinese sons and daughters have fought for the land under their feet unswervingly and fearlessly. With the rising of China’s economy and the continuous improvement of film technology, we will be able to make better national hero films, not forgetting history and praising their great national spirit. This is not only the needs of movie audiences, but also the spiritual needs of the nation, because it is these national heroes who prop up the unyielding backbone of the Chinese nation.
