Top 10 most advanced automobile engines in the world! The story behind these famous engines.

Jaguar’s 5.0-liter V8 supercharged engine can be said to be a real "beast". This first appeared in 2009 and immediately attracted the attention of many fans. It is not only full of horsepower, but also quite intoxicating. The birth of this engine actually has an interesting experience. Jaguar was owned by Ford at that time, but Ford intended to sell Jaguar. Jaguar engineers were worried that the new owner would cut the project, so they worked overtime to develop it and finally got the engine done before Jaguar changed hands.

This engine was installed on Jaguar’s various models as soon as it was launched, such as XF, XJ and so on. Its power output ranges from 470 horsepower to 575 horsepower, which can make these elegant British cars instantly transform. Interestingly, this engine was later borrowed and installed on their high-performance models.

With the changes of the times, large-displacement engines are gradually out of favor. However, this 5.0-liter V8 has always been strong in luxury models of Jaguar and Land Rover, and has become a symbol of feelings. Its roar seems to tell the story of an era, which makes many old car fans cry. Although there are more environmentally friendly substitutes now, this ""still survives tenaciously in some special edition models.

The 2.0L I4 SkyActiv-X engine is an interesting guy. It is like a hybrid of a gasoline engine and a new one, which combines the advantages of both engines. This idea actually existed as early as the 1990s, but the technology at that time was not mature enough. Mazda’s engineers didn’t give up, they have been working hard silently. Finally in 2017, they announced the development of this revolutionary engine.

The biggest feature of SkyActiv-X engine is the compression ignition technology. Simply put, it is to create an ultra-high pressure environment in the cylinder and let the fuel ignite itself. In this way, not only the high speed characteristics of gasoline engine are retained, but also the high efficiency of diesel engine is obtained. In 2019, this engine finally made its official appearance in the world, which made many fans excited.

However, many things happen. After the launch of SkyActiv-X engine, it also encountered many challenges. Some people say that its fuel economy has not improved obviously, while others think that its price is too high. However, Mazda was not discouraged. They continue to improve technology and strive to reduce costs. In this process, engineers can stay up late and work overtime. Although this engine is still being perfected, it has become a symbol of Mazda’s innovative spirit.

Ford’s 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine can be said to be an amazing little guy. It was born in the late 2000 s, when the automobile industry was looking for a fuel-efficient and powerful engine. Ford engineers had a brainwave and came up with this idea: why don’t we combine it with direct injection technology? Just do it, and they began to work hard.

In 2009, this small steel gun finally came out. As soon as it appeared, it was amazing for four seats, full of horsepower and fuel saving. It was simply a flexible player in the big guy. Ford put it into various models, from cars to truck and even GT. This engine is very popular, even competing with Land Rover.

As time goes by, engineers constantly improve the engine. They adjusted various details to make it stronger, more fuel-efficient and more reliable. Now, this engine has become one of Ford’s trump cards, and it can be said that it is a household name in the automobile industry.

Although some people say that it is a bit complicated and may be troublesome to maintain, it is undeniable that the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost is indeed a model of technological innovation. It shows how to improve while maintaining motivation and points out a new way.

Toyota’s 2.5-liter four-cylinder hybrid engine can be said to be a milestone in hybrid technology. The story of this engine starts from the 1990s. At that time, people’s awareness of environmental protection and energy saving became stronger and stronger. Toyota saw this trend and began to develop hybrid technology. After several years of hard work, they launched the first generation in 1997, equipped with a 1.5-liter hybrid system. Although this system is energy-saving, it lacks power and many people find it boring to drive.

Toyota listened to users’ feedback and constantly improved its technology. In 2009, they introduced a 2.4-liter hybrid engine, which is more powerful, but the fuel consumption is still very low. This engine has won a lot of praise and is equipped on other models. But Toyota didn’t stop there. They continued to optimize the engine.

In 2017, Toyota finally launched a brand-new 2.5-liter four-cylinder hybrid engine. This engine adopts many new technologies, such as higher compression ratio and more advanced combustion system. It not only has stronger power, lower fuel consumption, but also runs more smoothly and quietly. This engine soon became the main force of Toyota’s hybrid vehicles, and it was widely welcomed by consumers.

Speaking of Tesla motors, that’s an interesting story. This thing was actually invented by this genius inventor at the end of the 19th century. Everyone was using it at that time, but Tesla came up with a useful idea. He designed a motor that can turn alternating current into mechanical power, which is the prototype of Tesla motor.

This kind of motor is amazing, with high efficiency, simple structure and special durability. However, it was not taken seriously at first. It was not until later that people gradually realized its benefits. At the beginning of the 20th century, Tesla motors began to be widely used in industrial fields, such as factory machinery and elevators.

Later, with the advancement of technology, Tesla motors became more powerful and efficient. In the 21st century, it shines brilliantly in the field. That electric car company named after Tesla uses this kind of motor as its core technology.

Now, Tesla motors have become the benchmark in the electric vehicle industry. It not only makes the car run fast, but also improves the energy efficiency. From a small invention to the technology that affects the world today, the story of Tesla motor can be said to be a microcosm of the development of science and technology. This invention has not only changed industry, but also changed the way we travel.

Audi’s 2.5-liter inline five-cylinder turbocharged engine can be said to be a small legend. The story of this engine starts from the 1970s. At that time, Audi engineers wanted to do something new, so they came up with this unique five-cylinder design. It is more powerful than a six-cylinder engine and saves space and weight, which can be said to be the best of both worlds.

This engine made its debut on the 1976 model. Its unique "whoops" sound suddenly attracted many car fans. Later, this engine was also used in the famous four-wheel drive car, which showed its talents in the rally field and won many honors for Audi.

What is the reliable way to bid farewell to the debt of gratitude when high human consumption becomes rural vulgarity?

Cartography/Gao Yue  

  Our reporter Chen Lei

  Intern Chen Jiayun of our newspaper

  Marrying a daughter-in-law, marrying a daughter, the death of an elderly person, building a house, moving a house, opening a shop, entering a university, joining the army, giving birth to a child, having a child at the age of 10, and having an adult at the age of 36 are all names for farmers to hold banquets.

  In some rural areas of our country, human customs are alienated, projects increase sharply, and gift money soars. Some farmers borrow money to give away their feelings, which affects their production and life, and "good customs go to bad customs".

  Recently released "No.1 Document of the Central Committee" in 2017 — — "Several Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Deepening the Structural Reform of Agricultural Supply Side and Accelerating the Cultivation of New Kinetic Energy for Agricultural and Rural Development" proposes to strengthen the work of changing customs in rural areas and guide the masses to resist stereotypes and bad habits such as weddings, funerals, weddings, and debt of gratitude.

  Experts interviewed by the reporter of "Legal Daily" believe that on the one hand, stereotypes and bad habits such as weddings, funerals, weddings, lavish activities and debt of gratitude can be guided by village rules and regulations; On the other hand, party member’s cadres and public officials are prohibited from doing big things through legislation, so as to promote rural customs.

  Social customs are deteriorating.

  In recent years, China Rural Governance Research Center of Huazhong University of Science and Technology has been organizing teachers and graduate students to return home for investigation during the Spring Festival. In more than 10 provinces such as Central China and Northeast China, nearly 100 post-80 s and post-90 s researchers have set their sights on their hometowns.

  In an ordinary agricultural village in northern Anhui, the per capita arable land is 1.5 mu, and the older generation stays behind to farm, mainly planting food crops such as wheat and rice. Young and middle-aged people go out to work, and working has become the main source of income for many families.

  Three years ago, the standard for villagers who belong to the same natural village and have a general relationship was 50 yuan or 60 yuan, while the nearest neighbors and friends were generally in 100 yuan, and the nearest brothers and sisters were 500 yuan or 600 yuan.

  In the past three years, this standard has generally doubled, and villagers with ordinary relations have been carried to 100 yuan, and their closest brothers and sisters have reached more than 1000 yuan.

  Gui Hua, an associate researcher at China Rural Governance Research Center of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, sorted out the names of banquets hosted by farmers in Zigui, Hubei Province. After 2000, human customs began to change, especially in the last five or six years. Nowadays, the names of banquets hosted by farmers in Zigui generally include: marrying a daughter, marrying a daughter, the death of the elderly, building a house, selling a house and moving, opening a shop, entering a university, joining the army, having children, children reaching the age of 10, adults reaching the age of 36, and so on, with more than ten items.

  According to media reports, in Wuxi County, Chongqing, a typical mountainous county and a national key poverty alleviation and development county, there is a "comfort wine" for failing in the college entrance examination, a "reformed wine" for returning home from prison, and a "baby-protecting wine" for children before they are born. Even sows have to drink the whole wine when they give birth.

  Guihua believes that human feelings have existed since ancient times, and it is the basic means to maintain social life in a relatively static traditional rural society. Farmers transmit their feelings through human interaction, thus building a stable social relationship and meeting the daily mutual needs of farmers.

  "Folklore is a social activity and a product of society. It has strong spontaneity and sociality." Guihua told the reporter of Legal Daily that great changes have taken place in rural social life since the reform and opening up more than 30 years ago. Many long-standing folk customs have been "alienated" under the current social background of great changes, and the growing popularity of human banquets in many areas is one example.

  "We have seen in the national survey that farmers in some places are competing to hold banquets, and human feelings have even become a means of collecting money, and social customs have deteriorated." Guihua said, "Good customs go to bad customs."

  Zhi Zhenfeng, an associate researcher at the Institute of Law of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told the reporter of the Legal Daily that in recent years, there has been a phenomenon of weddings, funerals and weddings in rural areas, and even a big banquet was held under various pretexts to compare with each other, resulting in bad customs and bad habits. The vicious circle continues, leading to worse and worse rural customs and great harm.

  There is no winner in front of human consumption.

  All kinds of birthday banquets, such as full moon, centenary, first birthday, birthday, junior high school, high school, university and other "happy events" such as buying a house and a car, have made rural residents overwhelmed by the rising cost of living.

  A survey by Guihua and others in Zigui, Hubei Province shows that about one third of farmers’ household income is used for human expenditure, and some families even reach half.

  According to media reports, in a village in Wuxi County, in 2016, more than 100 banquets were held in the village, and the villagers gave gifts of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan a year, and even 40,000 to 50,000 yuan. The per capita annual income in the village is less than 6000 yuan, and most villagers go out to work. "For the sake of human feelings, some villagers even gave away their pension insurance money."

  The Qinghai Investigation Corps of the National Bureau of Statistics conducted a sample survey on the "human expenditure" of rural residents in Qinghai, and found that the average annual growth rate of "human expenditure" was 12 percentage points higher than the average annual net income growth rate of people.

  In the face of debt of gratitude, every family has become a loser.

  Guihua explained that human feelings themselves are consumptive. On the surface, it seems that you come and go in balance. But in fact, every human activity requires banquet expenses. The more frequent human activities, the more banquet expenses. In the end, a lot of farmers’ income is consumed by catering.

  "In the end, either those with less income can’t afford to play ‘ Friends circle ’ Withdrawing from social activities can only affect family development by sticking to the scalp. " Guihua believes.

  Guihua believes that the current changes in human customs stem from two aspects of changes in social life: first, urbanization accelerates population mobility, traditional rural social relations tend to disintegrate, farmers’ daily contacts expand, and "friends circle" has changed; Second, employment opportunities have increased, farmers’ income has become diversified, there has been a certain degree of differentiation within rural society, and money and material factors have played a greater role in interpersonal communication. In this way, there has been a strange phenomenon that it is difficult for farmers to talk about feelings without human feelings.

  It is difficult to change customs by simple legal means.

  Human relationship was originally a traditional virtue in China, and it was a link to maintain good social relations, but now it has become a bad habit of consumption.

  So, how to solve this problem?

  In the "No.1 Document of the Central Committee" in 2017, the central government proposed to strengthen the work of changing customs in rural areas and guide the masses to resist stereotypes such as weddings, funerals, weddings, and debt of gratitude.

  Zhi Zhenfeng told the reporter of Legal Daily that it is difficult to change customs in rural areas simply through legal means. First, the obstacles in legislative adjustment, "changing customs is not the scope of local legislation authorized by the legislative law."

  Zhi Zhenfeng said that the second is the obstacle in the implementation of the law. "Many rural customs, even some bad habits, are part of the whole rural social environment. The social environment does not change, and it is very difficult to get rid of bad habits only by means of legal prohibition. After all, this is a voluntary behavior of the villagers and does not violate the mandatory laws and regulations of our country. "

  Guihua told the "Legal Daily" reporter that rural weddings, funerals, weddings, lavish activities, debt of gratitude and other stereotypes have not violated or violated any national laws, but are a social activity, which is difficult to be bound by the mandatory provisions of the law.

  Zhi Zhenfeng believes that what can be done to change rural customs and get rid of bad habits is to strictly implement the Party’s internal laws and regulations, strictly manage the Party in an all-round way, and at the same time, amend the relevant laws and regulations of state civil servants, clarify the professional ethics of public servants, and prohibit party member cadres and public officials from throwing banquets, receiving big gifts, eating and drinking, so as to drive the change of the rural stereotypes and bad habits.

  Experts interviewed by reporters all believe that the government can also guide the masses to resist stereotypes such as weddings, funerals, weddings, and debt of gratitude through village rules and regulations.

  Guihua said that social customs are a tradition, and the appearance of stereotypes and bad habits is essentially the disintegration of norms under the traditional lifestyle. Moreover, once the social order is out of order, it is difficult to spontaneously evolve in a benign direction. At this time, intervention from external forces, such as government intervention, is needed to help form good social customs.

  How should government departments intervene?

  Guihua believes that a better way is for the government departments to issue some initiative documents for the problems strongly reflected by the people, such as some initiative documents to change customs and habits in the construction of beautiful rural areas, and clarify the standards of public order and good customs.

  "After the publication of the document, it is not the government departments that use administrative means to enforce it, but to encourage and guide farmers to formulate village rules and regulations that conform to the village conditions and people’s feelings by means of villagers’ autonomy, and to form a set of new customs and standards that are suitable for farmers’ needs and adapt to local social and economic life." Guihua said that only the norms formed by farmers’ participation can be recognized and consciously observed by farmers.

  Zhi Zhenfeng said that in addition to national legislation, government departments can be guided by township regulations or village regulations to rebuild rural communities and get rid of bad habits.

  "It is necessary to pass ‘ Hard method ’ It is also necessary to ban the stereotypes and bad habits of cadres and public officials in party member through ‘ Soft method ’ Guide the masses to resist stereotypes and bad habits, and both will form a good public morality and a benign social atmosphere. " Zhi Zhenfeng said.

Counting the economy: continuous recovery shows strong resilience and vitality to the good China economy

From the demand point of view, the manufacturing market demand continues to recover, the new order index and the new export order index are both above the critical point, and the overall export business of enterprises continues to improve.

The new kinetic energy continues to expand rapidly. In April, the purchasing managers’ index of equipment manufacturing industry and high-tech manufacturing industry was 51.3% and 53.0% respectively, both higher than the overall level of manufacturing industry.

In addition, the business activity index of non-manufacturing industry was 51.2% in April, which continued to be above the critical point of 50%, and the non-manufacturing industry continued to expand.

In the first quarter of this year, there were 1.419 billion domestic trips, and the "May Day" tourism fever continued to climb.

The Ministry of Culture and Tourism released on April 30th that in the first quarter of this year, the number of domestic tourists in China was 1.419 billion, a year-on-year increase of 16.7%. Domestic tourists spent a total of 1.52 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 17.0%. It is expected that during the May 1 holiday this year, domestic travel and consumption will reach a new high, and the trend of diversification of consumption scenarios is significant. At the same time, the sinking trend of the tourism market is obvious. At present, the hotel booking orders in the county market increased by 68% year-on-year, and the travel booking orders in the fourth-tier and below cities increased by 140% year-on-year. The passenger flow of minority tourist destinations such as Jiangmen in Guangdong, Huainan in Anhui and Changjiang in Hainan will increase rapidly.

According to the monitoring data of the State Post Bureau, as of April 29th, China’s express delivery business has exceeded 50 billion pieces in 2024, 32 days ahead of 2023.

Today, more than 100 million express parcels flow in rural areas every day. Express delivery enterprises actively adapt to the characteristics of "many products, fresh quality and large quantity" of agricultural products, constantly innovate the collection mode, increase investment in cold chain, and promote the large-scale development of agricultural products delivery business.

Since 2024, the business volume in the central and western regions of China has accelerated and become an important force driving the development of the industry. At the beginning of the year, the State Post Bureau proposed to continuously optimize the delivery service of e-commerce express mail sent to some areas, guide major express delivery enterprises to optimize their operation modes, promote e-commerce platforms to improve their sales methods, and realize the goal of "delivering everything" for express delivery enterprises. The data shows that in 2024, with the joint efforts of express delivery companies and e-commerce platforms to gradually implement the service improvement plan in Xinjiang, the average daily delivery volume in Xinjiang increased by nearly one million pieces, which played a positive role in promoting the acquisition of Xinjiang agricultural special products in Xinjiang and the sales outside Xinjiang.

Nowadays, the intelligent transformation of large-scale express distribution centers has been accelerated, unmanned warehouses, unmanned vehicles and drones have been rapidly applied, and the level of informationization and intelligence in the industry has been continuously improved.

Wang Yuehan, director of the Industrial Economics Research Department of the Development Research Center of the State Post Bureau, said that the express delivery industry is playing an increasingly important role in reducing the logistics cost of the whole society and improving the circulation efficiency. The market scale is expanding rapidly, the development ability is continuously improved, and the industry is full of vitality and strong motivation. The good development of the express delivery industry reflects that China’s economy is continuing to resume its growth trend and continues to pick up.

Who are you for donating money to protect the ecology of the Yangtze River every month for 23 years? Where are you?

■ Tracing back to the source of millions of square kilometers of river basins, we will find that the magnificent Yangtze River, Yellow River and Lancang River all originate from one place — — Located in the hinterland of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the source of the Three Rivers. The source of the Three Rivers seems far away from the city where we live, but for every handful of water we scooped up downstream, maybe some of it comes from the source of the Three Rivers.

  ■ In 1995, Yang Xin established an environmental protection organization — — Sichuan Green River Environmental Protection Promotion Association (referred to as Green River) began to carry out environmental and ecological protection work in the source area of the Yangtze River with non-governmental forces. On this road, there are thousands of people in Qian Qian who walk with Yang Xin, but there is one person who has always been moved by his concern and urged him to move forward.

  ■ This person has never appeared. Is it a person or a group? Is it a man or a woman, and what kind of occupation is it? Yang Xin doesn’t even know, except that since 2000, this person’s donation has come from Guizhou, starting from 10 yuan to 20 yuan every month and then to 30 yuan every month, and it has never stopped for 23 years. On the money order, only one name is left: "Panjiang Green". This made Yang Xin and others very moved: Only by sincerely loving the Yangtze River can we have such persistence.

  ■ On August 30th, Yang Xin told the Chengdu Business Daily-Red Star journalist that he hadn’t thought about looking for "Riverside Green", but he couldn’t start without clues. He hopes that more people can look for "Panjiang Green" together and find each other on the premise of respecting their wishes. He also expects that this search will awaken more people’s awareness and actions of eco-environmental protection, and more "Yangtze River Green" will emerge to pay attention to the Yangtze River and participate in eco-environmental protection in China.

  A

  Nearly 30 years of persistence

  "Protecting the first person in the Yangtze River" has never thought of retreating.

  In 1986, Yang Xin, who was only 23 years old, joined the "China Yangtze River Scientific Investigation and Drifting Expedition" as an accountant and participated in the first "Yangtze River Drifting". Since then, Yang Xin has visited and filmed the Yangtze River source area many times. In this process, he discovered ecological problems that can’t be ignored: Tibetan antelopes were killed, grassland degraded, glaciers melted, and garbage pollution … … In the 1990s, Sonam Dajie, deputy secretary of the county committee of Zhiduo County, Qinghai Province, fought a gun battle with 18 poachers alone to protect Tibetan antelopes in Hoh Xil, and was shot and killed. After hearing the story of Sonam Dajie, Yang Xin decided to do something anyway.

  In 1995, Yang Xin founded the environmental protection organization — — Sichuan Green River Environmental Protection Promotion Association aims at promoting and organizing natural ecological environmental protection activities in the upper reaches of rivers, promoting the development of folk natural ecological environmental protection in China, improving the environmental awareness and environmental ethics of the whole society, and striving for the sustainable development of the social economy in this basin. In the second year, an investigation team composed of scientists, journalists and environmental protection volunteers entered the source area of the Yangtze River, revealing poaching and ecological problems here, which attracted national attention. At the same time, Yang Xin wrote a book "Soul of the Yangtze River" and sold it for charity, raising the first folk nature reserve in China — — The construction funds of Sonandaje Protection Station. Then, the Hoh Xil National Nature Reserve was established, and the Sanjiangyuan National Park was established, and the protection efforts continued to increase.

  In 2011, Yang Xin led volunteers to establish the second private nature reserve in China — — The "Yangtze River Source Water Ecological Environment Protection Station" promotes the ecological protection and garbage recovery of the Yangtze River source, and with the support of the government, it has established 12 stations, including the Qinghai-Tibet Green Station, the Sichuan-Tibet Green Station, the Bande Lake Wildlife Observatory and the Yangtze River Theme Post Office, to monitor the glacier degradation in the Yangtze River source and protect the highest flying bird in the world — — Bantouyan, Developing the First Gorge of the Yangtze River — — Investigation on biodiversity of tobacco plants, linear garbage recovery of Qinghai-Tibet Highway and Sichuan-Tibet Highway & HELIP; … Yang Xin is also called "the first person to protect the Yangtze River" by many people. When asked if he ever felt tired, Yang Xin’s answer was "never". Yang Xin never wanted to back down. There were some things he didn’t have to do, but he turned it into something he had to do, including looking for "the green river".

  B

  23 years of moving

  The mysterious man "looks forward to the river green" and never stops donating money.

  The first time I learned about "Panjiang Green" was on May 14th, 2000. Green River received a money order from 10 yuan, which came from Guiyang, Guizhou. The remitter’s address came from the post office, and the name column read "Panjiang Green". In the message office, "Panjiang Green" wrote: "May 14th is Mother’s Day. I think the Yangtze River is also the mother of our Chinese nation. Thank you for your dedication to your mother. I will always support your work." At first, Yang Xin and others didn’t care too much. After all, there are many anonymous donors. By the time they noticed again, "Panjiang Green" had been donating for a period of time, and the amount was 10 yuan every month. "I don’t think his financial conditions are very good, otherwise he won’t only donate ten yuan at a time, but it’s touching to donate even if his income is limited."

  Since 2000, the annual donation of "Panjiang Green" has never fallen, with the amount from 10 yuan to 20 yuan in 2009 and 30 yuan in 2011. The donation method of "Panjiang Green" is changing. At first, it was a handwritten money order from the bank, then it became a printed money order, a wire transfer order, and then it was transferred to the post office. The only thing that remains unchanged is the donation and signature as promised: "Panjiang Green". Who the hell is "Panjiang Green"? Yang Xin has always hung in his mind and thought about how to find it, but he only knows that "Panjiang Green" is in Guiyang, and there is no other clue. "Only once, when he donated money, he sent an email to the public mailbox of Green River, saying that the donation had been remitted this year. Please check it." Yang Xin said, "I quickly replied to a letter and invited him to the protection station to have a look." But reply like Shi Niu into the sea. However, the donation of "Panjiang Green" has not been interrupted. Yang Xin said that the office of Green River has moved several times, and every time it has a new address, "Panjiang Green" knows that remittances are all remitted to the new address. Yang Xin also thought: Since he didn’t want to show up for 23 years, "Panjiang Green" may not be to show himself, so he has been silently paying attention and supporting.These small details made Yang Xin and others warm and moved. When they were weak, they thought of these, and they straightened their backs and moved on. Sometimes, Yang Xin himself has become a "green river". He said that his photographic works often use the name "Panjiang Green". In Yang Xin’s view, no one can participate in all public welfare, but there will always be people involved. They are here, and the power to move forward is there.

  C

  Looking for "Panjiang Green"

  Pay tribute to the 10 million supporters of Qian Qian.

  Yang Xin mentioned in many interviews and speeches that what moved him most was not the person who donated the most, but the "Panjiang Green" who donated for the longest time and had never met. After a recent speech, his idea of looking for "looking forward to the river green" began to spread again. In Yang Xin’s view, "Panjiang Green" is a person and a group of people, representing the people who have been silently supporting the public welfare undertakings for years. "We lead the public welfare undertakings forward, but behind them are countless ‘ Panjiang Green ’ This is their recognition and encouragement to us. "

  Looking for "Panjiang Green" is to awaken more people’s awareness of ecological environment, let more people know about green rivers, know that "Panjiang Green" continues to support public welfare and pay attention to the ecological environment protection of the Yangtze River for 23 years. In addition, Yang Xin also wants to let everyone know that it is these material support and spiritual strength that have become the driving force for himself and his peers to persist. I hope that through this search, more "looking forward to the river" will emerge, and we will work together to pay attention to the Yangtze River and participate in ecological environment protection.

  Alibaba’s charity "Everyday Positive Energy" team responded quickly after learning about this incident. Together with Chengdu Business Daily-Red Star News, Guizhou Metropolis Daily, the media where the money order was first issued, and the media along the Yangtze River, on the eve of China Charity Day on September 5 this year, a special action was launched to "look for the riverside green", find TA, pay tribute to TA, and pay tribute to thousands of "riverside green" in Qian Qian, China.

  Yang Xin was moved by this move. He said that environmental protection work is diversified. Green River has gone through 28 years, and now there are more than 3,000 volunteers. These volunteers participate in public welfare and environmental protection in a variety of ways. They have the money to pay, make great efforts, and have technology. Among them, there are many big names such as stars. There are thousands of people in Qian Qian who are "looking forward to the river green" in society. I hope that everyone will participate in more ways and make more contributions to environmental protection and charity, so that more people can become "looking forward to the river green".

  Of course, the value and significance of looking for "Panjiang Green" do not stop there. Yang Xin said that it’s certainly good to find TA. If you can’t find TA, it’s also a process to show the society, so that more people can know it and become it.

  "What would you say if you found it and met?" The reporter asked. Yang Xin thought for a moment, and his expression became serious: "At the same time of thanking, I will sincerely invite TA to visit the protection station when she has time. It is precisely because of Qian Qian Wanwan ‘ Panjiang Green ’ With the same supporters, the ecological environment protection of the Yangtze River has achieved so much. " When he said this, Yang Xin seemed to be back on the plateau. The clouds dispersed, revealing the sky and snow-capped mountains. The setting sun hung in the west, and the sun shone on every mountain and river. Chengdu Business Daily-Red Star Journalist Jiang Lin

"Delicious" Museum Wenchuang: When Cultural Relics Hit Food

  If you only know that the "online celebrity" in the museum has lipstick, it is out of date. After all, the long and profound Chinese culture is not only condensed in cultural relics, but also has a more grounded carrier — — Chinese cuisine. When the cultural relics hit the food, the picture was so beautiful.

  There are still more than half a month before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and many museums have already been unable to hold back.

  The National Museum of China has developed "Ruyi Cake", with the head as the main shape, and two catfish jumping in the water with shallow relief on the surface, which is homophonic "more than one year". "Ruyi cake" has a traditional shape and a modern taste: mocha, black cheese, cranberry, fragrant mango, matcha honey beans and baiyu pomelo, which cater to the picky taste buds of young people.

  The Summer Palace launched a "Yihe Box" mooncake gift box, which was inspired by the Yue embroidery screen of Leshou Hall, six kinds of auspicious birds such as phoenix and magpie, and six kinds of buildings such as Foxiang Pavilion and Seventeen-hole Bridge, and was matched with traditional mooncakes such as golden leg five kernels, egg yolk lotus seed, red dates and walnuts, taking a classic route.

  The "lever handle" of museum cultural and creative circles — — The Palace Museum once screened its circle of friends with corner coffee and icehouse restaurant. Last Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon cake "Guicai Mid-Autumn Festival is specially round" produced by the Forbidden City, the theme of which comes from the poem "Leaping Mid-Autumn Moon" written by Zhao Ji, Song Huizong. The gift box is based on the azure of Ru kiln in Song Dynasty, decorated with ice cracks and dark lines. The moon cake patterns are all from the flower-and-bird paintings drawn by Song Huizong, which makes people feel unbearable. This year, a "Mid-Autumn Festival Everything Ceremony" mooncake gift box has been quietly sold in Wenchuang flagship store of the Palace Museum.

  In fact, the museum has been working hard to eat this important event.

  As early as 2014, Suzhou Museum produced cookies based on the cultural relics in the collection. The most popular cookie is the secret color porcelain lotus bowl cookie with matcha flavor. In the same year, Sanxingdui Museum in Guanghan, Sichuan Province also developed "Bronze Mask Biscuits", which made you feel comfortable with a bite of bronze.

  If it was just a spark before, then this year, the "delicious" museum has gradually become a prairie fire. Eating this big event not only happens on holidays, but also all the time.

  At the beginning of 2019, the Guangdong Provincial Museum presented three kinds of cakes, named "Guangdong Tibetan", "Guangdong Guangbao Box" and "Fashion", which instantly "went out of the circle" and attracted a large number of foodies. "Guangdong Tibetan" refers to the rich collection of Guangdong Bo, and the dark black grain on the top of the cake is the LOGO of Guangdong Bo; "Yueguang Treasure Box" imitates the architectural appearance of Guangdong Boxin Museum, just like a treasure box; "Fashion" was inspired by export fans. The mid-18th-19th century was the golden age of Guangzhou’s foreign trade. Export fans exuded the charm of Chinese style and European rhyme, and they were popular in the western market. And this fan-shaped cream cheese and green apple cocoa cake has now become a popular commodity in Guangdong Bo.

  Zhou Ziniu, head of Wenchuang in the Summer Palace, introduced that Wenchuang cuisine was also launched for the first time this year in the Summer Palace, among which "Yihe Eight Scenery" was the most distinctive. Eight landmark landscapes, such as promenade, Buddha Pavilion, bronze cow, seventeen-hole bridge, jade belt bridge, stone boat, Wenchang Pavilion and Guishou Wuji, were selected and made into cakes with different fillings. Palace cakes, which used to be enjoyed only by the royal family, entered the homes of ordinary people by inheriting and carrying forward traditional cultural elements.

  On March 10th, the Dong Qichang Painting and Calligraphy Art Exhibition closed in Shanghai Museum, which is the largest Dong Qichang exhibition held in mainland China. Another "selling point" of the exhibition is that 1,500 sets of "Dong Qichang Afternoon Tea" were sold in three months. Drinking a cup of coffee or special tea according to Dong Qichang’s painting style, coupled with a small dish of "Xuanshang" rice cake and landscape mung bean cake, has become an "immersive" way for people to watch the exhibition.

  It is said that no matter what you see, you will ask "how can you be good": can you eat, is it delicious, and how to eat. For the museum, to solve the problem of being able to eat and delicious, it is necessary to let the audience "eat" things other than food.

  Liao Fei, director of the Food Culture Center of the National Museum of China, studied cultural relics appreciation at the university. He has worked in Guobo for 15 years, and he knows a lot about cultural relics in permanent exhibitions. Since he started to do food and beverage culture creation, as soon as he saw the cultural relics, he pondered "how to eat".

  One of Guobo’s "treasures of the town hall", Siyang Fangzun, is a special-grade cultural relic forbidden to leave the country, but now the audience can take away the "Siyang Fangzun 3D Chocolate". Liao Fei believes that a piece of cultural and creative food, only the face value is not enough, the key depends on the connotation. The most extensive symbolic meaning of sheep among the people is "auspiciousness", and sheep have the habit of "kneeling and nursing", which is interpreted as a model of filial piety to parents. Therefore, Guobo retained the image of the Four Sheep’s Square, and "sprouted" it into delicious black and white chocolate to symbolize auspiciousness and filial piety.

  Liao Fei introduced that in the traditional decorative patterns of China, "the picture must be intentional, and the meaning must be auspicious" is emphasized to express the good wishes in the heart, which is especially manifested in colored porcelain, such as happiness, fortune, longevity, happiness and wealth. Thus, during the Spring Festival this year, the most "sweet" cultural creation in the history of Guobo — — The lollipop gift box was born.

  Five groups of lollipops selected five decorative patterns of colored porcelain in Qing Dynasty: famille rose hollowed-out dragon-shaped revolving heart bottle (dry dragon), with dragon-shaped dragon-shaped dragon, bat, money and wishful thinking as the theme, which formed the meaning of "happiness in sight, good luck and wishful thinking"; Pastel deer pattern statue (Qianlong), painted with a picture of a hundred deer, "deer" and "Lu" are homophonic; Pastel peach-patterned celestial bottle (dry dragon), with peach bat pattern painted on the outer wall of the bottle, which means "Five Blessingg holds longevity"; Multicolored flowerpots in Hua Niaowen (Kangxi), where magpies live on plum branches, are said to be "beaming"; A rectangular flowerpot with red goldfish pattern (Xianfeng), in which "goldfish" and "golden jade" are homophonic, meaning "happy ever after".

  In Liao Fei’s view, no matter what cultural and creative products are made, it is always culture that gives them connotation and soul. "Now the homogenization competition of cultural and creative products is fierce. Can you make your own characteristics, convey the meaning to be expressed, and compete with the theme?"

  There is a Guishou Wuji Courtyard in the Summer Palace, which is a resting place for the Empress Dowager Cixi to have tea and snacks before going to listen to go to the opera, a museum of birds, which provides a cultural environment for the research and development of royal cakes. The Summer Palace not only made the cakes mentioned above, but also designed a matching napkin with the patterns of ancient buildings on the roof and verandah of Guishou Wuji Hospital as elements, which is very suitable for cakes.

  The museum is so delicious, but the research and development of food culture and creation has its own difficulties.

  In Zhou Ziniu’s view, the biggest difficulty in developing food culture and innovation is that there is no benchmark to learn from, and there is no standard to learn from. "To turn an idea into a food, it is necessary to ask professional personnel and manufacturers to make numerous preparations in terms of materials, tastes, shapes, etc., taking into account quality and cost, and it is possible to complete a cultural and creative food that has both characteristics and is suitable for mass consumption." Zhou Ziniu said that the early research and development time is long, the investment is large, the food control is strict, the shelf life is short, and the future sales are uncertain … … Are all risks.

  Liao Fei said frankly that there are two main difficulties in making food culture: first, food has a shelf life; Second, there are limited food manufacturers with creative research and development capabilities, and it is difficult to find cooperation. At present, Guobo’s products are independently developed.

  Yu Na, head of the Cultural and Creative Industries Section of Yuanmingyuan, feels the same way. Other cultural and creative products have relatively mature processing plants and production lines, which can be converted into products by providing design drawings. However, there are fewer companies that can connect catering cultural and creative products, and many foods cannot be mass-produced.

  The difficulty is very realistic, and the solution can be thought about slowly. After all, this audience is full of enthusiasm for the museum, and the support for Wenchuang cuisine is even more with wallets.

  The most timely wenchuang cuisine this summer is probably the lotus ice cream in Yuanmingyuan, and there is a legendary archaeological story behind it. In 2017, eleven ancient lotus seeds were discovered in Ruyuan site in the southeast corner of Changchun Garden. After careful cultivation by experts from Chinese Academy of Sciences, six lotus seeds successfully germinated after sowing and blossomed in Yuanmingyuan this summer. From July 31st, Yuanmingyuan will sell lotus-shaped ice cream. Yu Na told reporters that she sold 50,000 pieces in less than half a month. (Reporter Jiang Xiaobin)

The Power of Thought: Chileans and China Shield Machine

  23 days, with a journey of 20,000 kilometers. This is the time for "Cherry Express" to transport Chilean cherries into China, which is about 10 days shorter than ten years ago. Garces, from Chile, operates the largest local production and export enterprise of cherries, 82% of which are sold to China. Garces said: "The business environment in China is very friendly, and there are unlimited possibilities in China."

  High-level opening to the outside world requires both introduction and going abroad. This year, China Railway Equipment will soon complete the export of the 100th shield machine. Shield machine, also called full-face tunnel boring machine, is a sharp weapon to build subway, railway and highway tunnels. In the past ten years, Wang Dujuan’s team has sold China shield machines to more than 30 countries and regions such as France and Italy, winning the trust of the international market and representing the high level of China’s opening to the outside world.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has continuously promoted high-level opening to the outside world, repeatedly stressing: "The door to China’s opening will not be closed, but will only grow wider. The pace of China’s promotion of a higher level of openness will not stagnate. "

  Nowadays, there are more and more open platforms such as China China International Import Expo(CIIE), Service Trade Fair and Consumer Expo.

  China has set up 21 free trade zones and one free trade port, with free trade partners spread across five continents.

  In the past ten years, China’s average contribution rate to world economic growth reached 38.6%, ranking first in the world.

National Medical Products Administration standardizes the chaos in the medical and beauty market, and clarifies the management of water needles according to Class III medical devices.

  In the future, if a medical and beauty institution comes up with a product that is not a class III medical device and sells it to you as a "water needle", then this institution can directly pull the black. The Beijing Youth Daily reporter learned that National Medical Products Administration issued a notice on adjusting some contents of the Classification Catalogue of Medical Devices, and "Shuiguangzhen" was clearly regulated according to Class III medical devices.

  survey

  Water-light needle slightly corrects the fire.

  The market is "mixed"

  "Playing a water-light needle is equivalent to applying 1000 masks", "Aunt turns into a girl, only separated by a mixed water-light injection", "One needle can solve N kinds of problems such as hydrating and moisturizing, shrinking pores, lightening fine lines, whitening and removing spots" and "lunch beauty, minimally invasive without moving the knife" … …

  The hydrating and skin care effect of Shuiguangzhen has been aroused by various road networks, and it has become a hot item in the non-surgical "Light medical cosmetology" market, attracting thousands of women to be obsessed with it. The injection operation of Shuiguang needle is very convenient, and the whole process only takes 1-2 hours. It seems to be an "efficient and safe" entry-level medical beauty project. In Little Red Book, there are as many as 100,000 notes on planting grass related to "Shuiguangzhen" and "Shuiguangzhen Medical Beauty".

  At present, the price of a dose of water-light needle ranges from hundreds to thousands, or even tens of thousands of yuan. TF Securities pointed out that from the classification point of view, the scale of non-surgical medical beauty in China has expanded rapidly, while the proportion has remained at around 70%, which is higher than the global average. It is estimated that the scale of young medical beauty industry will exceed 200 billion yuan in 2023.

  Such a huge market is very chaotic. According to the data of "White Paper on Insights into Medical Beauty Industry in China in 2020", at present, the genuine rate of injections circulating in the medical beauty market is only 33.3%, that is, out of every three injections, two are illegal injections such as parallel imports and fakes.

  Chaos

  Medical dressings and cosmetics are on the scene one after another.

  "Shuiguangzhen" market is chaotic

  When the reporter of Beiqing Daily inquired about some medical beauty platforms, it was found that the types of water-light needles used on the platforms were far more than the "sodium hyaluronate for injection" that had been approved as "Class III medical devices". Not only that, the reporter of Beiqing Daily noticed that some products with the status of "Class III medical devices" have been approved for indications that are irrelevant.

  For example, a water-light needle named "Shu Wei Ke", the product name is "Medical Sodium Hyaluronate Gel", and it has also obtained the level of "Class III Medical Device", but its registered application scope is "Auxiliary for preventing and reducing postoperative adhesion of abdominal (pelvic) cavity surgery".

  The "true identity" of more water needles is actually a medical dressing, which can’t be used for injection, and some even only have the record number of cosmetics.

  The reporter of Beiqing Daily noticed that a kind of human collagen bio-repair dressing named "Kelijin" is a Class II medical device, and it has been approved as a product for healing damaged wounds, but it has been used as a water needle injection in some medical and aesthetic institutions. The product of "Yifuquan" water-light collagen is called yeast recombinant collagen liquid dressing, which is also a class II medical device. It has been approved for "adjuvant treatment of skin diseases caused by impaired skin barrier function and improvement of skin itching caused by dermatitis and eczema", etc., and has not been approved for injection. In September, 2020, it was reported that a Yueyang woman was disfigured when she was given a water-light needle, and the organization injected her with "Femander Youth Essence Enhanced" and "levorotatory VC". Among them, "Feimande" belongs to cosmetics, while the box of "levorotatory VC" does not have any Chinese logo.

  Not only that, on some e-commerce platforms, there are hundreds of cosmetics that are actually essence, cream and mask with the identity of "water needle". However, as a medical beauty project, the word "Shuiguangzhen" cannot be put on record through cosmetics. According to insiders, calling cosmetics "water needle" is nothing more than a gimmick made by merchants to improve sales.

  Supervision

  Clarify the identity of "Shuiguangzhen"

  Clear the "edge ball" behavior

  A few days ago, National Medical Products Administration issued an announcement on adjusting some contents of the Classification Catalogue of Medical Devices, which readjusted the classification catalogue of 27 types of medical devices. Among them, especially the catalogue of some medical beauty products has been greatly adjusted. According to the Catalogue, sodium hyaluronate solution for injection, which is the main component of "water-light needle", is used to inject into the dermis, and the skin condition is improved mainly through the moisturizing and hydrating effects of materials such as sodium hyaluronate, and it is regulated according to Class III medical devices.

  Previously, on November 9, 2021, National Medical Products Administration Medical Device Standard Management Center issued a notice on soliciting opinions on the adjustment of the Classification Catalogue of Medical Devices, which further clarified that Shuiguang needles were classified as Class III devices for supervision.

  Analysts believe that the adjustment of some contents of the Catalogue of Medical Devices will have a significant impact on the medical and beauty industry. The most obvious is to strictly control the use of non-compliant products by institutions. Through the classification of medical devices, the "edge ball" behavior in the market is gradually eliminated.

  According to the Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Medical Devices, enterprises engaged in the operation of Class III medical devices are subject to business license management, and business units need to hold a Medical Device Operation Record Certificate or a Medical Device Operation License, and the requirements for production technology and aseptic preservation will be much higher than those for Class I and Class II medical devices.

  Shuiguangzhen

  The so-called water-light needle is to inject hyaluronic acid (hyaluronic acid), collagen and other substances into the dermis of the skin by using negative pressure needle to make the skin firm and elastic. National Medical Products Administration Medical Device Technology Evaluation Center once said that water-light acupuncture is a kind of therapy that injects sodium hyaluronate as the main component into the superficial layer of facial dermis to improve the skin condition. As a skin-breaking injection project, water-light needles should be certified as Class III medical devices in National Medical Products Administration before they can be produced and sold.

  However, it takes a long time to apply for Class III business license of medical devices and a lot of experiments are needed, and the production company is required to have a quality management organization or full-time quality management personnel suitable for the scale and scope of business, which makes many businesses opportunistic.

"WeChat Shopping" is not protected by consumer law? Relevant parties responded.

  Core reading

  A few days ago, the statement that "WeChat shopping is not protected by the Consumer Protection Law" triggered a heated discussion. Online shopping has increasingly become an important form of consumption, and how to protect consumers’ rights and interests has also become an associated problem. Does WeChat Shopping Apply Consumer Law? What should we pay attention to in online shopping rights protection?

  In the recently released Information Analysis Report of the Command Center of Gansu Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce for the First Half of 2016 (hereinafter referred to as the Report), there is a discussion on the applicable laws of WeChat shopping: "WeChat shopping is not protected by consumer law, and consumers are advised to deal with it through judicial channels." When this statement came out, it caused a heated discussion.

  The person in charge of the 12315 Command Center of Gansu Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce responded during the interview that the Report is a situation analysis based on the complaints in the first half of the year, mainly aimed at the behavior of "private transactions" in WeChat "friends circle", "but the wording and expression are incomplete and imprecise. The applicable laws of WeChat shopping should be treated differently. Now many enterprises or individual industrial and commercial households with legal procedures such as business licenses also carry out sales activities through WeChat, which is within the scope of consumer law adjustment. "

  Consumer law does not protect private transactions in WeChat friends circle.

  "To judge whether WeChat shopping is applicable to consumer law, we should conduct classified discussions." The relevant person in charge of the Regulations Department of Gansu Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce said. Wechat shopping behaviors applicable to the adjustment of consumer law mainly include: first, legally qualified market entities conduct transactions through WeChat; Second, transactions conducted on micro-stores (third-party trading platforms) that have obtained legal qualifications; Third, promote products and conduct transactions through WeChat WeChat official account. WeChat official account is not facing a specific target, and WeChat users choose goods and services according to their own needs, so WeChat official account’s marketing behavior should fall within the scope of consumer law adjustment.

  "The transaction conducted by private letter through the circle of friends, the object of the transaction is a specific object, which belongs to the private transaction between individuals. It is difficult to adjust and regulate by the elimination method, and it should belong to the scope of legal norms such as the contract law and the general principles of civil law." The person in charge explained.

  It is also pointed out that after purchasing goods through private transactions, consumers can claim compensation from producers (that is, product manufacturers) according to the law of elimination if personal or property damage is caused by product defects.

  Wechat shopping is not an uncontrollable vacuum.

  The "transaction between private individuals" in WeChat does not apply the elimination method, but it does not mean that consumers have no basis for safeguarding rights, nor does it mean that the industrial and commercial departments can not perform their supervisory duties. The person in charge of the Network Supervision Department of Gansu Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce said that we should encourage and welcome WeChat shopping, a constantly developing emerging format, and believe that relevant laws and regulations will be introduced to regulate and supervise it in the future.

  Lawyer Gao Bingming of Gansu Zhengding Law Firm believes that WeChat shopping is not an uncontrollable vacuum, and disputes can be solved by applying contract law and other laws. If businesses are suspected of violating laws and crimes, they should be further investigated for their responsibilities. There have been cases in which Wechat business was sentenced for selling fake and shoddy goods.

  However, it is also true that it is difficult for consumers to defend their rights in the event of disputes between private individuals through WeChat. The "Report" pointed out that in the first half of this year, there were 2,046 Internet sales service consultations in Gansu Province, up by 100.04% year-on-year. Among them, WeChat online shopping disputes grew rapidly, and the main problems were: the quality of the goods sold was not up to standard; Merchants do not deliver goods after WeChat payment; After-sales service is not guaranteed.

  "Unlike online shopping that needs to be conducted through a formal online trading platform, individuals only need to register a WeChat account to sell goods or services through WeChat, and they can open a business without real-name registration system and handling relevant documents. Consumers cannot accurately know the seller’s information." The person in charge of the 12315 Command Center said that as a social tool, WeChat is closed and highly private, which makes supervision more difficult.

  "Because most consumers can’t determine the seller’s real information and can’t provide corresponding consumption vouchers, complaints against Wechat business are often unacceptable, and the legitimate rights and interests of consumers can’t be effectively protected." The relevant person in charge of Gansu Consumers Association told the reporter that the WeChat shopping disputes that have been successfully mediated at present are basically sellers with physical shops online.

  Wechat will restrict the access of rebate merchants

  What management responsibilities should the operators who provide mobile internet channel access services for Wechat business bear?

  "The common sales behaviors and transactions on WeChat are actually not completed on the WeChat platform itself, but the expansion of various applications through WeChat." The head of Tencent’s WeChat team said in an interview that users have the right to choose their own WeChat usage methods, but the premise is legal and compliant; For violations of relevant laws and WeChat user agreements, WeChat will resolutely crack down on joint rights holders. If users encounter infringement in the process of using WeChat, they can report it through the reporting portal of WeChat.

  The WeChat team also said that it will continue to crack down on fraudulent accounts. From December 13, 2015 to June 11 this year, more than 100,000 titles have been sealed. "We will strictly restrict the access of rebate merchants and even refuse to use the platform interface."

  The person in charge of the relevant departments of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce said

  Enterprises use WeChat marketing to apply elimination method.

  Yang Hongcan, director of the Consumer Protection Bureau of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, said in an interview with the media that it is difficult to protect consumers’ rights and interests according to the terms of the Consumer Law. Consumer law adjusts the relationship between rights and obligations between consumers and operators. However, WeChat purchasing is often carried out in the name of "friends and acquaintances help", which belongs to private entrustment, and many of them are part-time amateurs. In this case, it is difficult to identify the purchaser as the operator, and it is more likely to be regarded as an ordinary civil dispute after a dispute arises, and it is also difficult to apply the provisions of consumer law. If the enterprise conducts marketing through WeChat and conducts purchasing business, the provisions of consumer law shall apply.

  Shenyang consumers’ association zhizhao

  Online shopping should pay attention to retaining evidence such as screenshots.

  Wang Jinwen, secretary-general of Shenyang Consumers Association, suggested that consumers can take the following steps to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests when they encounter problems when shopping in enterprise micro-stores:

  The first is to collect and retain evidence. Take photos of fake and shoddy products from all angles with your mobile phone, and take screenshots of the chat record with the seller for use when complaining. The second is to contact the seller for return. The third is to contact the third-party trading platform (micro-store) for compensation. If the online trading platform knows or should know that the seller infringes on the legitimate rights and interests of the buyer and fails to take measures, or cannot provide real information of the merchant, it may claim compensation from the trading platform. The fourth is to complain to the industrial and commercial department or the Consumers Association where the micro store is located. Fifth, those who are suspected of committing crimes report to the public security organs for filing. Sixth, those who cause personal injury to consumers have the right to claim compensation from sellers and producers.

  Lawyer analysis

  Natural persons may also be identified as "operators"

  Yang Naichao, a lawyer of Beijing Lanpeng Law Firm, believes that the consumer law does not clearly define the operator, but generally refers to the economic entity that has obtained the business license. However, in February this year, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce issued the "Guidelines for Seven Days’ Unjustified Return of Goods Purchased on the Internet" (draft for comments), which defined online sellers as "legal persons, other economic organizations, individual industrial and commercial households or natural persons who sell goods through the Internet", and classified "natural persons" into the category of e-commerce operators, indicating that the definition of "operators" may still change in the future.

  "According to the provisions of the Consumer Law, if the online trading platform provider cannot provide the real name, address and effective contact information of the seller or service provider, consumers can also claim compensation from the online trading platform provider. However, WeChat does not belong to the online shopping platform, and it is difficult for consumers to claim compensation for the WeChat platform. " Gao Bingming, a lawyer of Gansu Zhengding Law Firm, said.
