SPring, a large synchrotron radiation source in Japan

First, the third generation synchrotron radiation light source with the highest energy in the world


SPring-8, a large-scale synchrotron radiation facility in Japan, is located in Harima Science Garden City, Hyogo) in Hyogo Prefecture, the center of the Japanese archipelago. It is the third generation synchrotron radiation source with the highest energy in the world. Its English name is Spring-8, which means "8GeV Super Photon Ring", that is, the output power is 8 GeV.


In 1991, under the leadership of MEXT (Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology), Jaeri (Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute) and Riken (the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research) of Japan began to jointly build SPring-8. The construction cost of the first phase is about 110 billion yen, and the land is donated by Hyogo Prefecture for free. With the joint support of the county government, the county university, various research institutes and commercial enterprises, the project was completed in 1997, and the facilities were opened, which were managed by JASRI (Japan Synchrotron Radiation Research Institute), including the operation, maintenance, transformation, user service and scientific research and development of light sources. JASRI is the only statutory management organization of SPring-8, which is private and non-profit, and employs more than 1,000 employees, 80% of whom are researchers and technicians. From October 1997 to 2010, SPring-8 has built 55 beam line stations.It has served more than 100,000 people in science, industry and business circles in Japan and the world.


Spring-8 in Japan, advanced photon source APS (Argone) in Argonne National Laboratory of the United States and European synchrotron radiation facility ESRF (Grenoble) in Grenoble, France are the three largest high-energy synchrotron radiation facilities in the world.

Third, structural exploration


The accelerator of SPring-8 mainly consists of four parts: 


* injector, Linac, 1GeV;; 


* Booster, 8 GeV;


* large Storage Ring, storage ring, 8GeV, used for high brightness X-ray; 


* Small storage ring, NewSUBARU, 1.5GeV, used for medium short pulse soft X-ray.



  1. Injector (Linac) 


The linear accelerator section is equipped with 26 3-meter-long accelerating units to accelerate the electron beam energy to 1GeV. The red part in the picture below is a quadrupole magnet used to focus the electron beam.  



Linear accelerator unit 1 


The electron beam is generated by a thermionic gun impregnated with barium and tungsten. The ion gun is located on the high-voltage board with a voltage of about 180KV. The pulse duration is 1ns or 40ns. The selected beam is focused on a buncher and accelerated to 1GeV energy with 25 accelerating cavities. Electron beam energy dispersion is reduced by energy compressor system (ECS). Then, the linear accelerator as the injector transports the electron beam to the intensifier or the NewSUBARU small storage ring. 


Some parameters of linear accelerator:



2. Booster Synchrotron


Annular, with a circumference of 396 meters. The 1GeV electron beam output from the linear accelerator will be accelerated to 8GeV in the intensifier. The blue image below shows the deflection magnet, which is used to generate synchronous radiation light; The yellow part is a six-stage magnet for stabilizing the electron beam.


Inside the synchrotron tunnel Branch point of the synchrotron (left) and SSBT (right)


Intensifier tunnel intensifier branch point (left) electron beam transport line SSBT (right) 


In FODO, the magnetic focusing structure of the intensifier, bending magnets and quadrupole magnets are alternately arranged, and the repetition frequency of injection, acceleration and output is set to 1Hz, and the harmonic number is 672. If a single beam is injected into the storage ring, an RF elimination system is installed to eliminate other electron beams adjacent to the main beam. The special timing system injects different beams according to the types of light required by each outlet station of the storage ring. 


Some parameters of the enhancer:



3. The large Storage Ring (storage ring)



The electron beam is injected into the storage ring from the transport line SSBT (left).


Huge ring with a circumference of 1436 meters. Its conventional unit consists of 2 deflection magnets, 10 four-stage magnets and 7 six-stage magnets, and its length is about 30 meters. The linear joints are located between conventional units, and are used to install plug-ins, RF accelerating cavities, beam injection systems, beam diagnosis systems, etc., with a total of 44 linear joints. 


Some parameters of large storage ring:




The large storage ring can store 8GeV electron beams for a long time, more than 100 hours. The energy consumed by synchrotron radiation is replenished by accelerating equipment installed in four radio stations around the storage ring. The constant current (top-up) injection mode effectively ensures the constant beam current intensity in the storage ring. 


Link: The 86th academic seminar of the Oriental Science and Technology Forum was held on December 7-8, 2006, with the topic of "beam orbit stability of the third generation synchrotron radiation light source". 


Dr Kouichi Soutome from Japan synchrotron radiation research institute (JASRI) gave a special report on "constant current injection and beam orbit stability of SPring-8". He first emphasized the necessity of providing users with a stable X-ray beam for precision experiments. In order to stabilize the beam position, it is necessary to restrain the beam trajectory change. He pointed out that the top-up injection mode with constant beam intensity in the storage ring can effectively ensure the stability of the synchrotron radiation light intensity. For this reason, SPring-8 has made great efforts to study the sources of various factors that cause orbit change, such as the change of magnet power supply and the vibration of vacuum chamber caused by cooling water.


SPring-8 also improves the beam trajectory correction system and the corresponding measurement system. For top-up implantation, SPing-8 adopts many measures, such as reducing the vibration of stored electron beam caused by implantation, reducing the loss of implanted electron beam, and maintaining long-term high-purity single beam implantation. Finally, he reported the stability of SPring-8 in beam orbit and the performance of top-up injection operation mode. The total current stability in SPring-8 storage ring is controlled within 0.1%, and the current intensity inconsistency of each beam is also controlled within 10%. 


4. NewSUBARU



  NewSUBARU storage ring 


NewSUBARU, a small storage ring with 1.5GeV, is mainly used to study the application of soft X-ray in industrial field. Built in 1998, Lasti (Laboratory of Advanced Science and Technology for Industry) of Hyogo University is responsible for its operation. 


The circumference of the small storage ring is about 119 meters, and it consists of two 14-meter and four 2.6-meter straight-line sections. In the long straight section, an 11-meter-long undulator and an optical klystron free electron laser device are installed. The electron beam of 1GeV in the linear accelerator can be directly injected into the storage ring.



  11-meter-long undulator


Some parameters of small storage ring:




Four, beam line and experimental station


SPring-8 has 22 beam lines led by deflection magnets, and up to 24 can be built. There are 26 beam lines led out by the insert, up to 34 can be built, and the length of the straight line section is 4.5 meters; There is one beam line led by the long insert, and at most four beams can be built, and the length of the long straight line section is 25m. These beam lines are generally designed within 80 meters, but 9 can extend to 300 meters and 3 can extend to 1 kilometer.

V. Major scientific research achievements


1. Uncover the secret of the mysterious structure and movement mode of water molecules.


Water is a familiar substance, and the structure of water molecule H2O is well known. But perhaps people haven’t thought deeply: where does ice store huge cooling energy? Why is the density of water the highest at 4oC? But above or below 4oC, the water density decreases? Why is the density of solid ice less than liquid water?


Japanese scientists analyzed the structure of water and ice in SPring-8, and some new discoveries solved the long-debated problem about the nature of water. They successfully conducted Compton scattering experiment by using high-energy inelastic scattering beam line BL08W, directly observed the structure and function of ice at high resolution, and verified the accuracy of molecular dynamics simulation. This basic research result can help to develop thermal storage materials and analyze the thermal storage of new materials in the future. The paper was published in the top American science journals.


In fact, as early as 2008, scientists from RIKEN Institute of Physics and Chemistry in Japan proposed two water states with different hydrogen bonding modes by using BL17SU beam line and soft X-ray spectrum of SPring-8, as well as small angle scattering and Raman scattering.

2. Develop general-purpose plastic materials as strong as iron.


Plastic products such as plastic bags and plastic buckets have become widely used and indispensable items in our daily life because they are light, waterproof and cheap. But at the same time, it also has some disadvantages: low tensile strength, easy deformation and not high temperature resistance. They are synthesized from polymers such as polyethylene and polypropylene, and their structures at the molecular level are composed of long chains of carbon atoms. This "string" structure of polymer makes plastic products as soft as biomaterials. However, scientists have found that the tensile strength of materials will increase with the increase of polymer chain length; When carbon chains have tensile strength similar to covalent bonds of carbon atoms in diamonds, general plastics will harden, but they will not have diamond-like strength.


Distinguished professor Hikosaka of The Graduate School of Integrated Arts and Sciences (Hiroshima University) focuses on the study of polymer long chains and their structural and characteristic changes. He examined the blending phase structure of polyethylene long chain and its influence on properties by X-ray diffraction and other methods. The growth mechanism, sliding and diffusion effect mechanism of ideal polymer crystals are formulated. In 1987, the "sliding diffusion theory of polymer crystallization" was put forward.


The research team led by Professor Iwasaka and his doctoral student Kiyoka Okada, who used BL40B2 beam line in 2003-2007, observed the process of nuclear nucleation. ) From 2007 to 2010, using the X-ray scattering device of SPring-8, a new polypropylene-based plastic with strong tensile force and super heat resistance was successfully developed for the first time: NOCs(nano-oriented crystals).


The reason why ordinary plastics have poor tensile strength is because of low crystallinity. High-quality plastics are those with crystallinity of about 50%. In other words, the higher the crystallinity, the stronger the intermolecular interaction, and the stronger the tensile strength and heat resistance. When polymer molecules are regularly arranged, crystals form. Therefore, in order to improve the crystallinity, it is necessary to arrange the polymer molecules regularly as much as possible.



Professor Masamichi Hikosaka, Dr. Kiyoka Okada, holds a new type of polypropylene.


The research team led by Professor Iwasaka found a method to make polymers regularly arranged when plastics are in molten state, and proved that the crystallinity of the method is 92%. Because the structure of NOCsS looks like a real armor, it is composed of small pieces of iron plates, so the model is called "real armor" model. The tensile strength of the new polypropylene is about seven times higher than that of the ordinary plastic material, the heat-resistant temperature reaches 170°C or higher than 176°C, the light transmittance is 99%, and it is recyclable and cheap, because only one process is needed in the traditional polypropylene production process.


This wonderful new plastic material is most likely to be used in the transformation of steel body in traditional automobile industry. Although the thickness of the body will be doubled, its weight is only a quarter of that of steel.


3. Analyze the change of dynamic structure of calcium pump.


A variety of ions participate in the biological activity of organisms. Calcium 2+ ion promotes muscle movement and is one of the most important ions in organisms. It is stored in the endoplasmic reticulum of myofibrils. When calcium ions are released into muscle cells, muscles contract. At the same time, calcium ions need to return to the endoplasmic reticulum to relax the muscles. A membrane protein called calcium pump is responsible for pumping back calcium 2+ ions.


Pumping back calcium ions involves two processes: obtaining and releasing, and the structure of calcium pump changes accordingly. Chikashi Toyoshima (Institute of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences of the University of Tokyo) first discovered this structural change and analyzed the calcium pump structure in nine states.


His research results were published in the British journal Nature in 2000, 2002 and 2004. In view of this series of outstanding achievements, Professor Toyoda was awarded the Asahi Prize in 2009.

4. Discovery of new magnetic materials on meteorites


Every year, thousands of tons of meteorites fall to the earth. Although their surfaces are burnt black, their internal metal and mineral components remain unchanged, so they are called "fossils" in space. It provides powerful evidence for human beings to understand the mysteries of the solar system.


Masato Kotsugi, JASRI) of Japan Synchrotron Radiation Research Institute used the Photoelectron Emission Microscope (PEEM) on BL25SU beam line of SPring-8 to analyze the structure of iron meteorites. Iron meteorite is composed of α phase rich in iron and γ phase rich in nickel. Dr. Xiao Shan confirmed that there is a nano-scale mineral layer at the interface between iron and nickel, which is called Tetrataenite. However, it does not exist on the earth and will become an excellent new magnetic material. Dr. Xiao Shan further analyzed the characteristics of Tetrataenite, which is composed of 50% iron and 50% nickel, and the iron and nickel atoms are alternately arranged, which is a regular periodic crystal structure. It produces a kind of hard magnetism, that is, the magnetization direction will not change easily. Famous hard magnetic materials include permanent magnets and materials used in engines of hybrid vehicles.



Another important discovery of Dr. Xiao Shan: Tetrataenite will be a potential substitute in hard disk manufacturing. Platinum is an indispensable material for the next generation hard disk, but it is a rare metal, and its price is rising. At present, the demand for platinum has exceeded its production capacity. About 2 tons of platinum is used in global hard disk production every year. If Tetrataenite synthesized by iron and nickel can be used as hard disk material, the consumption of platinum will be greatly reduced, thus promoting resource conservation and low-cost production of hard disks.


Chiharu Mitsumata (Toho Kyu University) of Tohoku University in Japan is carrying out basic research on the synthesis of Tetrataenite.


As a result, Dr. Koyama and Professor Sanyan won the second place in Dubose-Crouse Award (international metallic graphic contest) in 2010.

 5. Successfully developed all-solid-state safety battery by nanotechnology.


Professor Hiroshi Kitagawa (Kyoto University) of Kyoto University and Dr Rie Makiura (Kyushu University) of Kyushu University have studied nano-scale silver iodide (AgI) particles. They proved for the first time in the world that it is possible to realize stable solid electrolyte at room temperature. This research achievement is highly valued because of its great development potential. The paper was published in the British scientific journal Nature Materials in May 2009.



6. the three-dimensional structures of Rab27B and Slac2-a are analyzed.


In 2004, Dr. Mitsunori Fukuda (Tohoku University) of the Graduate School of Life Sciences of Northeastern University clarified the transmission mechanism of melanin in melanocytes at the molecular level. In 2008, in cooperation with Shigeyuki Yokoyama of RIKEN Institute of Physical Chemistry, he successfully analyzed the three-dimensional structures of Rab27B and Slac2-a in BL41XU Experimental Station of Structural Biology on SPring-8. Their structural data will greatly promote the research and development of new skin whitening products and drugs to prevent white hair.


7. The new chewing gum Pos-Ca can effectively prevent tooth decay.


Dr. Tomoko Tanaka (the Health Science Laboratory of Ezaki Glico Co., Ltd.) found that calcium phosphate oligosaccharide supported the remineralization of teeth, which promoted the appearance of new chewing gum with calcium phosphate oligosaccharide (Pos-Ca).

8. Research and development of new drugs against influenza virus


Influenza virus consists of eight RNA genes, and there are two types of spike proteins on the surface of virus particles: hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). Because of its simple structure, the virus cannot replicate itself. However, they can be skillfully replicated by using the replication system of human cells after invading human host cells.


HA, like a key, can invade the human body after combining with glycoprotein on the cell surface. NA plays an important role in the separation and release of progeny virus from cells, and is an enzyme that helps the virus infect other bacteria. The amino acids that make up the above two proteins are prone to mutation. So far, scientists have discovered 16 kinds of HA and 9 kinds of NA proteins. These protein are arbitrarily combined into various types of influenza viruses (H1N1–H16N9). For example, influenza A H1N1, which was prevalent in 2009, and H5N1 virus, avian influenza, which became prevalent in 1997.


Influenza virus encodes 10 kinds of proteins, among which RNA polymerase is very important in virus gene replication. It includes three subunits: PA, PB1 and PB2. When one of them is lacking, RNA polymerase loses its enzyme function and the virus cannot replicate. Therefore, if we can determine the three-dimensional structure of these three subunits, we can block the function of RNA polymerase.


In July 2008, Dr. Sam-Sam (Graduate School of Nanobioscience, yokohama city university) successfully analyzed the combined structure of PA and PB1, and analyzed the enzyme structure related to virus replication, which will accelerate the research and development of new antiviral drugs. It is not far away to realize the wish that people don’t have to worry about the flu in winter.

9. Reveal the secret of solar system formation by analyzing comet dust.


The American Stardust Project, 1999-2007) collected scattered dust samples of comet Wilder II (81P/Wild) and brought them back to Earth. It is expected that by analyzing these samples, information about the origin of comets and the entire solar system 4.6 billion years ago can be obtained.


Dr. Tomoki Nakamura (Kyushu University) of Kyushu University has conducted in-depth research on comet dust. He used the X-ray diffraction experimental device of BL37XU on SPring-8 and the synchrotron radiation facility of KEK to analyze and determine the crystal types and abundance ratio of dust. After that, Professor Akira Tsuchiyama (Osaka University) used the CT scan of BL47XU to visualize the internal structure of comet dust.


Dr. Nakamura found that "meteorite chondrules" originated from comet dust outside the solar system, so they can no longer be explained by the traditional model of solar system formation. "Meteorite chondrules" are the main components of ancient meteorites, rich in magnesium, silicon and a small amount of iron. The doctor believes that the migration of "globules" occurred in the primitive solar system composed of dust disks; However, he said that the analysis accuracy of at least 20 samples will be improved to obtain statistically significant conclusions. He will also continue to carry out comet meteorite dating and determine the migration time. It is expected that a new solar system formation model will be established soon.


10. Nanotechnology promotes the innovation of "new materials"


The shape characteristics of fullerenes discovered in 1985-containing 60 carbon atoms, like a football-have aroused widespread concern in the scientific community. In 1991, columnar carbon nanotubes were discovered. In January, 2008, Associate Professor Kitura & Hisa Nori Shinohara (Nagoya University) of Nagoya University successfully synthesized a nano-scale metal wire.

Carbon allotropes: diamonds and graphite, fullerenes and carbon nanotubes.


Pure gold is prone to oxidation reaction, but a very thin nanowire can exist stably in the air because nano-scale materials have a unique stable structure. In order to observe the internal structure of nanotubes, Associate Professor Bei Puliang conducted solid soft X-ray spectroscopy experiments at BL25SU experimental station in Spring–8. He observed that the absorption of Er by X-rays was unique, thus confirming that ErCl3 line was formed in carbon nanotubes.

Professor Tian Zhuo (University of Tokyo/RIKEN) of Tokyo University and Institute of Physical Chemistry is regarded as the most imaginative and productive polymer chemist in the world. In recent years, he took SPring-8 as an important research tool, and first successfully determined the structure of a new type of conductive graphite nanotubes. Then, he showed with solid evidence that the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of graphite molecules were closely connected in hydrophobic groups, forming tubular spiral molecular pairs. In addition, he also successfully designed a liquid crystal phase with short intermolecular programs. Both research results were published in the Journal American Chemical Society in 2008. In 2009, the design of "bicontinuous cubic liquid crystal materials in discoid molecules" was published on the cover of the magazine of American Chemical Society, and he also won the Polymer Chemistry Award of American Chemical Society.

11. Develop earthquake observation technology.


With the joint efforts of Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan Agency of Marine-Earth Science and Technology and Japan Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (JASRI), it is found that the deepest part of the earth’s core is made of iron with hexagonal close-packed structure. The state of metallic iron under ultra-high pressure and ultra-high temperature conditions is similar to the state of the earth’s core simulated by ultra-high pressure and ultra-high temperature. Scientists used SPring-8 high-brightness X-ray to observe the changes of single crystal structure of metallic iron, and found for the first time that the hexagonal close-packed structure was stable under extreme conditions of high temperature and high pressure. The analysis of the crystal structure is helpful to the analysis of earthquake observation and greatly strengthens people’s understanding of the formation and development of the core. This achievement was published in the American journal Science on October 15th, 2010.


12. Analyze the gel mechanism of self-assembly from the molecular level.


Recently, a joint research group of The University of Kitakyushu and JARSI announced that the molecular structure of the solvent in the gel state was analyzed on the BL03XU Advanced Soft Materials and BL40B2 Structural Biology II Experimental Station by using SPring-8 high-brightness synchrotron radiation. The research results benefit from organogelator (low molecular weight compound). As long as 1% solvent is added to it, the whole solvent will gel, which will greatly help to prevent environmental pollution caused by offshore oil spill. The paper was published online in the October 2010 issue of Polymer Journal.


Sixth, look forward to the future


The resolution of traditional optical microscope is limited by the wavelength of light, while the wavelength of X-ray is 10,000 times shorter than that of visible light, and the resolution reaches the atomic level, which means that the three-dimensional structure of a single atom in matter can be observed. X-ray is widely used in medical treatment, life science and material science. However, the light generated by X-ray light sources (including synchrotron radiation) is not uniform and the wave fields are inconsistent. Laser can produce uniform light by using a pair of mirrors. This urges scientists to make every effort to explore a new technology to realize a mirrorless laser, that is, XFEL: X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL). XFEL is an X-ray that combines the characteristics of free-electron laser. It is called the most promising new light source in the future with the most scientific exploration and discovery value. It is also called "dream light source" and "new dawn of the scientific era". It has the dual characteristics of laser and radiation light, and can work in the whole X-ray band. It is much better than the third generation synchrotron radiation light source in brightness, coherence and time structure, and is internationally recognized as one of the feasible technical routes of the "fourth generation light source".



The United States, Europe and Japan have successively developed XFEL, and raised it to the height of national strategy to deploy and implement it. LCLS(Linac Coherent Light Source, Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, USA), the first X-ray free electron laser device in the world, came out in 2009. The European Free Electron Laser Facility (European XFEL) is jointly participated by DESY of Germany and 11 other European countries. The core project is a 3.4-kilometer underground tunnel, which was officially started on July 1, 2010. It is expected to be completed in 2014 and the first scientific experiment will be conducted in 2015.



SPring-8 has already started the prefabrication and research of XFEL, and the accelerator prototype has successfully produced the first laser beam. In 2006, the XFEL project started. At present, the 700-meter-long 8GeV X-ray free electron laser device is under final construction and is expected to be put into operation in fiscal year 2011. exist

2.XFEL facilities


SPring-8′ s X-rays can produce light 10 billion times brighter than the sun, while XFEL produces light 1 billion times brighter than SPring-8, and the pulse is 1000 times shorter than the existing X-ray source. The higher brightness light source enables scientists to observe the three-dimensional structure of atoms and their ultra-fast motion more realistically.


Design parameters:


Electron beam energy: 8 GeV


Electron beam diameter: 40 um


X-ray wavelength: > 0.06 nm


X-ray peak power: 5 GW


X-ray pulse length: < 100fsec


X-ray peak brightness: 1033 photons/s/mm2/mrad2/0.1% b.w. 。


The original quality of electron beam determines the quality of free electron laser. Scientists have specially designed an ultra-high voltage thermal electron gun, which uses a single-crystal cerium-hexabromoboride cathode (CEB 6) to emit a fine, highly collimated and stable electron beam. Then, it is transported into the electron beam compression system, and the peak current will be strengthened to several thousand amperes.


The electron beam energy is rapidly increased to 8GeV by a C-band linear accelerator, and then transported into a vacuum undulator to generate intense XFEL radiation.

C-band linear accelerator was developed by SPring-8 and KEK. C-band acceleration gradient (35MeV/m) greatly shortens the length of the accelerator. The total length was originally an accelerator structure with a precision of 1282mia and micron, and it was finally installed in a tunnel with a length of 400m.

3. Create new technologies


Coherent X-ray imaging technology: Microscopic images of various materials at atomic level can be obtained.



Imaging process: X-ray laser → sample → coherent scattering mode → phase recovery → clear structure image.


XFEL’s ultrashort pulse can detect the ultrafast motion of matter in femtosecond.



Protein Structure Analysis: The analysis of new materials will surely lead to the birth of new functional products in biology and medicine.


Living cell biology: Real-time data acquisition will open a new way for the study of living cells.


Nanotechnology: Ultra-short wave XFEL will help to create new functional materials.


With XFEL, scientists can observe extreme phenomena in astronomy, plasma science and basic physics.


The Institute for Molecular Science, Niigata University, Nagoya University and JASRI/RIKEN of the National Research Institute of Japan jointly studied the intense ultraviolet free electron laser irradiated to argon atoms, and successfully analyzed the specific process of multi-electron emission.


In order to accurately measure the fluctuation in free electron laser, scientists analyzed all the electronic energy of argon atom irradiated by laser pulse at the speed of 20 pulses per second. They found that the absorption of electrons and multiphotons only occurs when the light intensity is very high, and clarified the importance of resonance state in multiphoton absorption. The research results show that the research of nano-science, nano-technology and material preparation can be promoted by using X-free electron laser on the basis of selecting appropriate laser wavelength and corresponding resonance conditions. The paper was published in american physical society’s scientific journal Physical Review Express on September 24th, 2010.

The information comes from http://www.spring8.or.jp/en/.

Shenzhen Railway officially became the major shareholder of Vanke, and Evergrande transferred all its shares at a unit price of 18.8 yuan.

Vanke’s largest shareholder has changed.

On the evening of June 9th, China Evergrande (0333.HK) announced that it had transferred 1553210974 shares of Vanke A(000002.SZ) to Shenzhen Metro Group for 29.2 billion yuan, with a shareholding ratio of 14.07%.

Subsequently, Vanke Enterprise Co., Ltd. (000002.SZ) also announced that Shenzhen Metro Group Co., Ltd. will hold 3242810791 shares of Vanke A shares, accounting for 29.38% of the company’s total share capital, becoming the largest shareholder of Vanke.

According to the information disclosed by both parties, the consideration for the sale of Vanke A shares by Evergrande this time is 18.80 yuan/share. According to the previously disclosed data, the cost of holding Vanke A by Evergrande is 23.35 yuan/share. Evergrande’s loss from the sale of Vanke A shares was 7.07 billion yuan. Evergrande plans to use the proceeds from the sale mainly to repay the debts of the Group.

At this year’s performance conference of Evergrande, a reporter asked if he would be unwilling to accept Vanke’s investment loss. Xu Jiayin’s answer is, "How can you say that you are unwilling to do something? Everything you do is a pleasant thing."

For Shenzhen Metro, this is the second time this year that it has received the equity of Vanke.

On January 13th this year, Shenzhen Railway has bought 15.31% shares of Vanke A from China Resources. Together with the shares of Vanke bought from Evergrande this time, it has become the largest shareholder of Vanke with a shareholding ratio of 29.38%, while Baoneng has retired to the second largest shareholder of Vanke with a shareholding ratio of 25.4%, and Anbang is the third largest shareholder with a shareholding ratio of 6.73%.

At this point, Evergrande has completely withdrawn from the battle of "Bao Wan".

Since Evergrande first disclosed the purchase of Vanke A on August 4, 2016, Evergrande spent 36.273 billion yuan on the acquisition of Vanke A..

Before the sale of Vanke’s shares, Evergrande irrevocably entrusted the voting rights, proposal rights and the right to attend the shareholders’ meeting of Vanke to Shenzhen Railway on March 16, and Shenzhen Railway decided to exercise it at its own discretion. At that time, the agreed period was one year.

It is worth mentioning that after Evergrande made this decision, it also indicates that Evergrande will give up the nomination right of Vanke’s director candidates.

At that time, Shenzhen Railway once said that as an important shareholder and strategic investor of Vanke, Shenzhen Metro Group is optimistic about the future development prospects of Vanke and does not rule out continuing to increase its shareholding in Vanke in the future.

As the largest shareholder of Vanke, there is only about one month left before the lifting of the ban on Vanke shares held by Baoneng Department. According to the provisions of the Securities Law and the Measures for the Administration of the Acquisition of Listed Companies, in the acquisition of listed companies, the purchaser’s shareholding shall not be transferred within 12 months after the completion of the acquisition. According to the regulations of the CSRC, investors who acquire shares of listed companies and become the largest shareholder, but the shareholding ratio is less than 30%, should also abide by this regulation.

According to the fact that Baoneng was the largest shareholder of Vanke before, every time it increased its holdings, the shares held by its name and its concerted parties needed to be correspondingly extended and locked for 12 months. Up to now, the last time Baoneng purchased Vanke A was on July 6, 2016. Based on this calculation, Baoneng’s shares in Vanke A can be sold after July 6.

At the close, China Evergrande reported HK$ 16.64 per share, down by 0.12%. Vanke’s announcement on the same day showed that the company will resume trading on June 12.

According to the previous arrangement, Vanke will hold the 2016 annual general meeting of shareholders on June 30, 2017. However, the issue of "general election of the board of directors", which is generally concerned by the market, is still not mentioned in the agenda of this shareholders’ meeting. As of the end of June, Vanke’s board of directors will serve for three months.

In this regard, Vanke told The Paper that there is still no timetable for the re-election of the board of directors. According to Vanke’s statement when answering investors’ questions in Shenzhen Stock Exchange on May 16th, the change plan is being actively brewed, and once it is mature, it will start the change immediately.

Revealing the Happy Life of "Tang Priest" Zhongrui Chi and the richest woman in China


  Zhongrui Chi and Chen Lihua, the president of Fuhua Group, who is a teenager older than him. (data picture)


  Beijing Youth Weekly reported on May 7. Becoming famous because of "Tang Priest", being controversial because of marriage, and being calm because of Buddhism-


  Born into a family of Peking Opera, he was deeply influenced by art since childhood and naturally embarked on the road of performing arts.


  Passing Yang Jie, the director of The Journey to the West, made him become attached to Tang Priest, and successfully shaped the role of Tang Priest in The Journey to the West, becoming the last Tang Priest to "get the true scriptures";


  His marriage with Ms. Chen Lihua, who is ten years older than him, has caused a lot of controversy, and he laughed it off.


  After the marriage, he quietly walked off the stage, quit the screen, and then walked out of the public eye.


  ● Yesterday reappeared.


  On December 23rd, 1952, Zhongrui Chi was born into a family of five generations of Peking Opera in Beijing. He was deeply influenced by the art of Peking Opera since childhood. However, Zhongrui Chi failed to take the road of Peking Opera in the end, for one thing, he was 1.80 meters tall, and for another, he caught up with the Cultural Revolution in China.


  Although he didn’t enter Beijing Opera, the artistic edification he received since he was a child can’t be lost. Zhongrui Chi took a tortuous artistic path: first he worked as a farmer in Heilongjiang Construction Corps, and then he worked as a literary and art soldier in Yunnan. After he retired, he was admitted to China Broadcasting Art Troupe. Two years later, he was sent to Shanghai Theatre Academy to go to college and became the first batch of college students after the Cultural Revolution.


  After graduation, Zhongrui Chi came to China TV production center and became a professional actor. He has shot a large number of film and television works, playing Du Mingguang in Golden Late Autumn. The second son Huan in "Love in the Pen"; Sun Shuikang, the leader of aquatic products in This is not a misunderstanding; Characters such as Sai Shang Xiao in Harbin at Night.


  One day in 1984, Zhongrui Chi finished filming Harbin at Night and went back to the troupe to get his salary. In the dark corridor, he almost ran into an oncoming stranger, Yang Jie, the director of The Journey to the West.


  At that time, The Journey to the West had just filmed half of it. Xu Shaohua, the actor of Tang Priest, had to leave the crew for some reason. Without the "master", the whole crew was in a state of downtime, and director Yang Jiezheng was so anxious about it that she met Zhongrui Chi.


  "I have to say that this is the Buddha’s edge. When I passed by in the corridor, Yang Jie decided that I was the best candidate for Tang Priest. A week after we met, I put on my cassock and rode on Bai Longma. "


  In 1988, The Journey to the West premiered in China, and the Tang Priest played by Zhongrui Chi was unanimously recognized by the audience. The four men became the most popular stars for a time, and attracted much attention wherever they went. However, at this moment, Zhongrui Chi chose to leave. He married Ms. Chen Lihua, the richest man in China, who was ten years older than him, and retired from the entertainment industry and started a new life.


  Our reporter takes you to visit the new life in Zhongrui Chi.


  They had a glorious history; They may have spent your youth with you; They used to be idols of a generation … Time flies and times have changed. Now they have bid farewell to their glory and started a new life. Show you their second life by comparing them. In this issue, the character-Zhongrui Chi is recorded.


  "Late Chief" in Luxury Palace [nowadays]


  At 9: 00 a.m. in a spring March, we arrived at the gate of China Red Sandalwood Museum on the northwest side of Gaobeidian Bridge in Beijing’s East Fourth Ring Road. Compared with the busy and congested streets in the morning rush hour, it was particularly spacious and deserted.


  At the gate, a big boy wearing a security uniform just pushed out the wooden box for collecting tickets. Under his guidance, we bypassed the museum in front and came to the back. We walked past a stone bridge, and there was a building with more than ten floors. The exquisite decoration of the building made people think of the word "magnificent". Upstairs, in the middle of the building, the three golden characters "Lihua Pavilion" shine in the sun.


  Walking into the interior of Lihua Pavilion, you will immediately feel the solemnity and luxury inside, just like walking into an ancient palace: there is a wide rosewood screen facing you, a huge and beautiful crystal chandelier overhead, all doors, windows and partitions are made of wood, with couplets and carved beams and painted buildings, and two elevators are hidden behind the antique wooden door frame, which makes people have to sigh the perfect combination of classical and modern.


  This is a modern comprehensive building with a classical appearance, with office area, hotel, gym, swimming pool, KTV and so on.


  We were taken into a reception room on the second floor. There are three floors in the room, which are still wooden doors, wooden windows and wooden floors. The outermost room is a rosewood screen, a plush chair and a mahogany long table, the second room is a circle of sofas and coffee tables, and the innermost room is a rosewood collapse. No sooner had we settled down in the plush chair than someone came in and poured tea.


  After sitting for a moment, with the sound of footsteps coming from the corridor and the greeting of the staff, Zhongrui Chi came in. He was in a good mental state, flushed and with a gentle smile on his face. It is still the appearance of the Tang Priest in The Journey to the West in the past, and it is still a loud and magnetic voice. The opening remarks are: "As soon as you see this rosewood museum, you will understand what I have done since I left the audience for more than ten years, at a glance."


  Why did Zhongrui Chi, who successfully shaped the role of Tang Priest in The Journey to the West, put aside his good performing career and open the rosewood museum instead? This has to start with his marriage.

Questionnaire survey on consumption recovery: 90% of the respondents are willing to travel and meet business opportunities.

  In a resort hotel in Suzhou, Ms. Zhang and her family booked a 2-night stay, as well as a 2-day vegetarian meal and Chinese massage. "Our family has &lsquo; Yangkang &rsquo; After a while, the relevant policies have been relaxed, and our family has not traveled for a long time, so we hope to go out for fun, but unlike before, &lsquo; Yangkang &rsquo; After that, we paid more attention to healing tourism, instead of arranging too full a trip, mainly to relax ourselves and even add some rehabilitation projects. " Ms. Zhang said.

  Ms. Zhang’s travel choices and ideas are typical representatives of many tourists this year. CBN recently publicly conducted a questionnaire survey on "Consumer Recovery, Will You Buy in buy buy?" After collecting more than 1,200 valid questionnaires, it was found that it was asked "Which fields of goods or services would you consume?" At that time, tourism ranked first, reaching 91.24%. In other words, tourism that can satisfy people’s spiritual pleasure consumption is what most people will choose in the consumer market this year, and many tourists’ willingness to travel this year is obviously strengthened compared with previous years.

  After recent interviews and investigations, the First Financial Reporter learned that this year, with the recovery of outbound travel and the warming of inter-provincial travel, tourism will inevitably usher in recovery and business opportunities. After experiencing the epidemic, more tourists began to favor healing tours and some extended cultural tours with experience. Of course, how to restart the outbound travel business, do a good job in the derivative projects of Dawen Travel and attract tourism professionals are also challenges that the industry needs to face.

  90% of the respondents want to travel, and nearly 60% of the tourists have a single budget of more than 10,000 yuan.

  In the three years since the epidemic, outbound travel has been suspended, domestic travel has been repeatedly blown, and repeated epidemics in various places have also made scenic spots open and closed. Local consumption has become the main mode of tourism in the past three years, which has given birth to some in-depth local tourism products.

  This year, with the relaxation of relevant policies, people’s willingness to travel, which has been suppressed for many years, seems to have a "small blowout". According to the questionnaire survey of CBN’s Consumer Recovery, Will You Buy in buy buy, 91.24% of the respondents chose to have a travel plan this year. When asked whether this year’s willingness to travel has increased compared with previous years, 85.85% of the respondents said that this year’s willingness to travel has increased or at least remained the same.

  The above questionnaire survey also shows that 60.2% of the respondents have plans for domestic travel this year, and 32.37% of the respondents plan to go both for domestic travel and outbound travel this year.

  In terms of tourism consumption expenditure, 57.39% of the respondents have a budget of 10,000 ~ 20,000 yuan per capita for single tourism consumption this year, and 32.6% of the respondents have a budget of 5,000 ~ 10,000 yuan for single tourism consumption, accounting for 5.63% of the respondents with 1000 yuan ~ 5,000 yuan.

  "In 2019, the tourism industry reached a relative peak. The tourism market in the past few years should have been very vigorous. However, when it encountered an epidemic, both domestic and outbound travel were hit. However, after the epidemic, people have strengthened their willingness to travel, and some spiritual pleasures have been favored by people. You see, in the consumption of Women’s Day just past, &lsquo; Yueji &rsquo; It’s a key word. Women are very particular about their inner experience when they travel. Therefore, we will see that in the process of consumption recovery this year, more subdivided products with spiritual pleasure will be released, and more themed tourist routes and accommodation products will be developed. " Cheng Chaogong, chief researcher of Tongcheng Research Institute, told the First Financial Reporter.

  Inter-provincial tourism is heating up, and the healing market has great potential.

  According to the tourism market data of Spring Festival, Women’s Day and other nodes this year, domestic tourism is the first to recover, and the results of the questionnaire survey of "Consumption Recovery, Will You Buy in buy buy" of CBN also show that 60.2% of the respondents have plans for domestic tourism this year.

  "Last year’s camping was in the market &lsquo; Kill &rsquo; Out of a horse &lsquo; Dark horse &rsquo; In fact, it is also a market cultivated because everyone can only focus on local consumption. Among them, the consumption of camping, RV and related supplies increased significantly in 2022. " Yang Songbai, general manager of RV Life Home, told the First Financial Reporter.

  According to the data of companies such as Ctrip, Tongcheng, Mama Donkey, Flying Pig, Qunar, Tuniu, Mahoneycomb and Spring and Autumn Tourism, last year, in low-risk areas, the "two-hour holiday circle" became the mainstream. Last year, the local tour orders during holidays such as "May Day" accounted for more than 80%, and most of them were non-group tourists, while camping became a "dark horse". The surrounding camping market continued to heat up during the "May Day" last year, and the popularity of "camping" related travel search increased by 117% from the previous month. At that time, the number of camping orders for flying pigs increased by over 350% month-on-month, and Hangzhou, Chengdu, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Wuhan, Beijing, Zhuhai, Changzhou, Foshan and Chongqing ranked among the top ten cities in China as popular camping tourist sources.

  In Yang Songbai’s view, after the rapid recovery of cross-provincial tourism this year, camping and other popular tourism projects last year can still be continued, but we must make sub-products that meet the needs of consumers. "For example, some high-quality local tourism projects can be retained, but they can be combined with inter-provincial RV camping, travel agency channel marketing and local homestays to make domestic tourism products. Nowadays, there are many young guests who like to drive by car, experience special homestays and travel freely. We must understand their needs. " Yang Songbai told the First Financial Reporter.

  In addition to camping and RV tours, three years after the outbreak, a large number of consumers are paying more and more attention to health-related consumption, and healing tourism is one of them.

  According to the survey results of CBN’s "Consumer Recovery, Will You Buy in buy buy?", more consumers have increased their spending in the health field this year, among which 87.18% of the respondents have a willingness to consume healthy food. It is worth noting that as many as 55.24% of the respondents are willing to participate in healing tourism this year, and 30.15% of the respondents have plans to participate in rehabilitation activities this year. It can be seen that healing tourism is a bright direction in the recovery of tourism consumption this year.

  "The epidemic once pressed the pause button for our industry, but this year is definitely a business opportunity for recovery. There are two sides to everything. Although the epidemic situation has a great impact on the cultural tourism industry, it has also made more consumers pay attention to health care, and healing tourism has become a trend. The core products of the project "Yin Yu Shui Zhong Tian" invested and developed by us include the journey of mindfulness life, the series of trips of body and mind co-cultivation, etc. to help guests understand their physical and mental health, and also include service teams such as Chinese medicine practitioners, rehabilitation experts, health coaches and nutritionists. These holiday tourism projects combined with healing courses are very in line with people’s demand for recreational travel this year. This year, our key planning project is the Unity International Cultural Festival, to discuss with the industry how to cope with the challenges brought by the development of the times. This year, we will continue to deepen the health industry and continue to help promote the development of the big health industry. " Cao Weide, chairman of Wanbang Pan Asia Group and founder of Yinyu, said in an interview with China Business News.

  It is precisely because of the warming of healing tourism that according to the data of Ctrip, Tongcheng, Mama Donkey, Flying Pig, Qunar, Tuniu, Mawei and Spring and Autumn Tourism, the heat of cities near and south of the Tropic of Cancer such as Sanya, Zhuhai, Xishuangbanna, Dali, Xiamen, Haikou, Tengchong and Beihai soared. Among them, the healing holiday tour in Sanya and some areas of Yunnan is the most popular. Yang Yang, general manager of Beijing Spring and Autumn Travel Agency, said that at the beginning of this year, many tourists chose to go to Sanya for "continuous recuperation", and most of these tourists were "Yangkang" tourists from North China. Spring and Autumn Tourism has also developed a variety of tourism products suitable for "Yangkang" treatment and recuperation, which directly boosted the recovery of cross-provincial tourism this year.

  Opportunities and challenges of restarting outbound travel

  Recently, for the tourism market, it can be said that there are frequent good news. First, it is pointed out in the government work report that restoring and expanding consumption are given priority. Increase the income of urban and rural residents through multiple channels. Stabilize bulk consumption and promote the recovery of life service consumption.

  On March 10th, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism issued the Notice of the General Office of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism on the pilot resumption of the travel agency’s business of China citizens’ outbound teams to relevant countries (the second batch). According to the circular, starting from March 15th, 2023, the national travel agencies and online travel enterprises will be resumed on a pilot basis to operate China citizens’ outbound group tours to relevant countries (the second batch) and "air tickets+hotels" business. From now on, travel agencies and online travel companies can carry out preparations such as product release, publicity and promotion. List of countries involved in (the second batch of) outbound group tours: Nepal, Brunei, Vietnam, Mongolia, Iran, Jordan, Tanzania, Namibia, Mauritius, Zimbabwe, Uganda, Zambia, Senegal, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Serbia, Croatia, France, Greece, Spain, Iceland, Albania, Italy and Denmark.

  According to the survey results of CBN’s "Consumer Recovery, Will You Buy in buy buy", 32.37% of the respondents plan to travel both domestically and abroad this year. In other words, at least one-third of the respondents have the willingness to spend on this year’s outbound travel.

  At the beginning of February this year, a number of outbound team tours started, mainly in the Southeast Asian market. The major overseas tourism bureaus have also started marketing for the China market in the near future. For example, the National Tourism Administration of Thailand originally planned to attract 5-6 million China tourists to Thailand this year, but after seeing the recent upsurge of China tourists’ enthusiasm for traveling to Thailand, it immediately raised its expected target. "In 2019, the number of tourists from China visiting Thailand was about 11 million, accounting for about a quarter of the total tourists in Thailand. According to the current good recovery momentum, we have raised our expectations. We now expect 7 million to 8 million China tourists to travel to Thailand this year." Yutasa, director of the National Tourism Administration of Thailand, recently revealed in an interview with the First Financial Reporter.

  At the same time, Tourism Dubai, Tourism Australia, Tourism New Zealand and Tourism Singapore are all getting together for promotion.

  "The further relaxation of outbound travel will inevitably play a positive role in the recovery of the tourism market this year. But we must also see the challenges faced by the recovery of the outbound travel market. For example, compared with domestic travel, outbound travel needs to go through a series of procedures, which are different according to the requirements of different countries, and some visa reservations need to be queued. Three years later, the local docking personnel in many outbound destination countries have also undergone great changes. For example, many local Chinese restaurants in Europe and America have switched to other formats, so it is very difficult to make a group meal of Chinese food now, and it is necessary to find a local catering business again. Local tour guides should also be re-docked. Moreover, many hotels in Europe have to book half a year or more in advance, and it is not easy to get a lot of rooms at once. The route of outbound group tour should also be redesigned, and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine has also led to various cost increases in some European tourist destination countries. International flights have not fully recovered, and these factors will make it take some time for some long-distance outbound travel in Europe and America to recover. To restart the docking of ground connection resources, we can foresee that the prices of some outbound travel products may double due to fewer flights and rising local costs. " Gu Wei, assistant general manager of Shanghai Airlines Tourism Group, spoke bluntly to the First Financial Reporter.

  According to the questionnaire results of CBN’s Consumer Recovery, Will You Buy in buy buy, 57.39% of the respondents’ per capita spending budget for a single trip this year is 10,000-20,000 yuan, while 32.6% of the respondents’ per capita spending budget is 5,000-10,000 yuan. Judging from this, the per capita spending budget of the consumers interviewed this year is not low, even higher than in previous years.

  Tourism enterprises pay attention to creating scenes and recruiting talents again.

  In view of the positive recovery of tourism consumption this year, major tourism enterprises, scenic spots, hotels and other operators are gearing up. After three years of epidemic, most of the tourists are very sober and professional in this process &mdash; &mdash; Pure low price does not attract too many consumers, but to create attractive and cost-effective products.

  "In the past, when people talked about tourism, especially group tours, it seemed that the cheaper the better, and this once caused many tourism disputes. Now what we see is that consumers are also mature, and everyone’s requirements for high cost performance of products are prominent. So what we need to do is to integrate the resources of scenic spots and major tourist destinations, and work with them to create some new products that meet the needs of consumers. This year, we will have plans to cooperate with some regional tourist attractions or local tourism-related operators to develop projects. We can participate in investment or act as operators, instead of the past travel agencies blindly serving as organizers to send tourists. " Liu Ning, director and president of Shanghai Jinjiang Tourism Holdings Co., Ltd., revealed in an interview with China Business News.

  This is also confirmed in the questionnaire survey of CBN’s Consumer Recovery, Will You Buy in buy buy? In the questionnaire, what elements can promote consumption? Most respondents said that it was not low price, but high cost performance accounted for 93.9%, high-quality goods accounted for 90.85%, and value-added space accounted for 86.47%. It can be seen that the goods with high cost performance are the ones that consumers are most willing to spend money on, while the low price factor accounts for only 4.93%.

  The Shanghai Tourism Industry Association revealed to the First Financial Reporter that in order to make more subdivided products and cost-effective products, it is necessary to pay attention to the creation of derivative scenes of Dawen Travel. For example, in the past, tourism was purely a trip, but now many tourism products can be combined with catering and culture, and some high-quality immersive experience projects and script projects can be created as consumption scenes of Dawen Travel. Of course, this kind of project development needs the cooperation of professional planning and cultural tourism resources.

  Nowadays, Ctrip, Tongcheng Travel, Mahoneycomb, etc. are all strengthening cooperation with tourism destination resources, hoping to gather offline scenic spots, accommodation and other partners for common development. For example, recently, Tongcheng Travel announced that it intends to acquire Tongcheng Tourism at a total cost of no more than 700 million yuan. This is an attempt and layout of one-way travel in the leisure tourism and holiday market under the background of strong recovery of the tourism industry. At the end of December last year, Tongcheng Travel announced that it would acquire Tongcheng International Travel Service and promote the deep integration of its tourism and holiday business. The proposed acquisition of Tongcheng Tourism is a continuation of Tongcheng Tourism’s leisure tourism and holiday market. If this intentional acquisition can be achieved, it will effectively supplement and extend the existing business of Tongcheng Travel and deepen the control over the upstream core resources.

  It is noteworthy that due to the three-year epidemic, some travel agencies and upstream and downstream partners still face problems such as resource shortage, and they urgently need support from traffic, technology, data and capital to seize the new opportunities of industrial rejuvenation. How to jointly promote the development of digital intelligence in the industry is a problem that should be considered.

  In addition, the talent plan is also worthy of attention. Many tourism industry feedback, three years since the epidemic, many tourism practitioners have changed careers, this year’s consumption recovery, tourism recovery process needs a large number of professionals to help, which requires recruiting suitable candidates from college graduates and mature talents. Just recently, 10 companies, including Ctrip, announced the joint launch of the "Travel Mulan Plan", which plans to provide more than 20,000+jobs for women in 2023. Sun Jie, the co-founder of the plan and CEO of Ctrip Group, said that this move is to better meet the business growth demand in the first year of tourism recovery, and at the same time help more women get equal opportunities for development in the workplace.

  Cheng Chaogong estimates that domestic tourism can be restored to 70% ~ 80% in 2019 this year, while Southeast Asia tourism in the outbound tourism market may be restored to about 70% ~ 80% in 2019. Of course, everything depends on the actual development of the market.

The state only subsidizes buyers who sell the above five categories of old household appliances and buy the above five categories of new household appliances, but the purchase of new household appliances is not subject to the corresponding restrictions on the types of old household appliances sold. For example, after the buyer sells an old TV and obtains the certificate of recycling household appliances, he can go to the successful home appliance sales enterprise to buy any of the five types of household appliances (such as refrigerators or washing machines), and can apply for price subsidies according to the prescribed standards.

  4. What is the subsidy standard for replacing old appliances with new ones?

  During the promotion and implementation period, the subsidy standard in the pilot stage is still used, that is, 10% of the sales price of new household appliances is subsidized, but the upper limit of the subsidy standard is limited for each type of household appliances. Among them, the maximum subsidy for TV sets is 400 yuan/set, for refrigerators (including freezers) is 300 yuan/set, for washing machines is 250 yuan/set, for air conditioners is 350 yuan/set and for computers is 400 yuan/set.

  Because the country has set a number limit for buyers to participate in the trade-in of household appliances during the promotion and implementation period, if the number of used household appliances sold by individual buyers with the same ID card exceeds 5, the excess part cannot participate in the trade-in of household appliances.

In principle, the buyer sells old household appliances to the nearest recycling outlets of household appliance recycling enterprises responsible for recycling in this area according to the place of residence; Household appliance recycling enterprises provide home recycling services for old household appliances according to the winning recycling area. In addition, enterprises with dual qualifications of selling and recycling can provide a "one-stop" service for sending new and old appliances, that is, buyers first go to the sales enterprise to buy new household appliances, and the sales enterprise recycles and drags away the old household appliances while sending them to the door.

The cross-section ratio of water bodies that have lost their use function (inferior to Class V) in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region has dropped by about 15 percentage points, and the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions are striving to eliminate water bodies that have lost their use function.
  By 2030, the proportion of excellent water quality in seven key river basins in China will reach more than 75% as a whole, the black and odorous water bodies in urban built-up areas will be eliminated as a whole, and the proportion of urban centralized drinking water sources reaching or better than Grade III will be about 95% as a whole.
  First, comprehensive control of pollutant emissions
  (1) Pay close attention to the prevention and control of industrial pollution.Banning "ten small" enterprises. Comprehensively investigate small industrial enterprises with low equipment level and poor environmental protection facilities. Before the end of 2016, according to the requirements of laws and regulations on water pollution prevention and control, all small-scale production projects that seriously pollute the water environment, such as papermaking, tanning, printing and dyeing, dyes, coking, sulfur smelting, arsenic smelting, oil refining, electroplating and pesticides, will be banned.. (The Ministry of Environmental Protection takes the lead, with the participation of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Land and Resources and the Energy Bureau, and the local people’s governments at all levels are responsible for the implementation. The following must be implemented by local people’s governments at all levels, and are no longer listed)
  Special rectification of ten key industries. Formulate special treatment plans for papermaking, coking, nitrogen fertilizer, non-ferrous metals, printing and dyeing, agricultural and sideline food processing, raw material medicine manufacturing, tanning, pesticides, electroplating and other industries, and implement clean transformation. New construction, renovation and expansion of the above-mentioned industry construction projects will implement equal or reduced replacement of major pollutants. Before the end of 2017, the paper industry will strive to complete the transformation of chlorine-free bleaching of pulp or adopt other low-pollution pulping technologies, the coke oven of iron and steel enterprises will complete the technical transformation of dry quenching, the urea production of nitrogen fertilizer industry will complete the technical transformation of hydrolysis and analysis of process condensate, the printing and dyeing industry will implement the technical transformation of low drainage dyeing and finishing, the pharmaceutical (antibiotics and vitamins) industry will implement the technical transformation of green enzyme production, and the leather industry will implement the technical transformation of chromium reduction and closed recycling..(Led by the Ministry of Environmental Protection, with the participation of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology)
  Centralized control of water pollution in industrial clusters. Strengthen pollution control in industrial clusters such as economic and technological development zones, high-tech industrial development zones and export processing zones. Industrial wastewater in the agglomeration area must be pretreated to meet the requirements of centralized treatment before entering the centralized sewage treatment facilities. Newly built and upgraded industrial clusters should plan and build pollution control facilities such as centralized treatment of sewage and garbage simultaneously. Before the end of 2017, centralized sewage treatment facilities should be built in industrial clusters according to regulations, and automatic online monitoring devices should be installed, and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions should be completed one year ahead of schedule; If it is not completed within the time limit, the approval and approval of the construction projects that increase the discharge of water pollutants will be suspended, and its park qualification will be revoked in accordance with relevant regulations.(Led by the Ministry of Environmental Protection, with the participation of the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Commerce)
  (2) Strengthen the control of urban domestic pollution.Accelerate the construction and transformation of urban sewage treatment facilities. Existing urban sewage treatment facilities should be transformed according to local conditions, and meet the corresponding discharge standards or recycling requirements before the end of 2020. Urban sewage treatment facilities in sensitive areas (key lakes, key reservoirs, and coastal water catchment areas) should fully meet the first-class A discharge standard before the end of 2017. In cities where the water quality in the built-up area can’t meet the Class IV standard of surface water, the newly-built urban sewage treatment facilities should implement the Class A discharge standard. According to the requirements of the national new urbanization plan, by 2020, all county towns and key towns in China will have the capacity of sewage collection and treatment, and the sewage treatment rates of county towns and cities will reach about 85% and 95% respectively. The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions were completed one year ahead of schedule.(led by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, with the participation of the Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Environmental Protection)
  Comprehensively strengthen the construction of supporting pipe network. Strengthen sewage interception and collection in urban villages, old urban areas and urban-rural fringe areas. The existing combined drainage system should speed up the transformation of rain and sewage separation. If it is difficult to transform, measures such as interception, storage and treatment should be taken. The supporting pipe network of new sewage treatment facilities should be designed, constructed and put into operation simultaneously. Except in arid areas, rainwater and sewage are diverted in the construction of new urban areas, and areas with conditions should promote the collection, treatment and resource utilization of initial rainwater. By 2017, the sewage in the built-up areas of municipalities directly under the central government, provincial capital cities and cities with separate plans will be basically collected and treated, and the built-up areas of other prefecture-level cities will be basically realized by the end of 2020.(led by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, with the participation of the Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Environmental Protection)
  Promote sludge treatment and disposal. Sludge produced by sewage treatment facilities should be treated and disposed of in a stable, harmless and resource-based manner, and it is forbidden to treat and dispose the sludge that is not up to standard and enter the cultivated land. Illegal sludge dumps will be banned. The existing sludge treatment and disposal facilities should basically complete the standard transformation before the end of 2017, and the harmless treatment and disposal rate of sludge in prefecture-level and above cities should reach more than 90% by the end of 2020..(led by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, with the participation of the Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the Ministry of Agriculture)
  (3) Promoting the prevention and control of pollution in agriculture and rural areas.Prevention and control of livestock and poultry pollution. Scientifically demarcate the livestock and poultry breeding forbidden areas. Before the end of 2017, the livestock and poultry farms (communities) and specialized breeding households in the forbidden areas will be closed or relocated according to law, and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions will be completed one year ahead of schedule. The existing large-scale livestock and poultry farms (communities) should build facilities for the storage, treatment and utilization of fecal sewage according to the needs of pollution prevention and control. Free-range intensive areas should implement household collection and centralized treatment and utilization of livestock manure sewage. Since 2016, new construction, reconstruction and expansion of large-scale livestock and poultry farms (communities) should implement rain and sewage diversion and waste water resource utilization..(The Ministry of Agriculture takes the lead and the Ministry of Environmental Protection participates)
  Control agricultural non-point source pollution. Formulate and implement the national comprehensive prevention and control plan for agricultural non-point source pollution. Promote the pilot experience of subsidies for the use of low-toxic and low-residue pesticides, and carry out green prevention and control of crop pests and diseases and unified prevention and control. Implement soil testing and formula fertilization, and popularize precision fertilization techniques and machines. Improve the standards and norms of high-standard farmland construction, land development and consolidation, clarify environmental protection requirements, and build high-standard farmland to meet relevant environmental protection requirements. Sensitive areas and large and medium-sized irrigation areas should use existing ditches, ponds, pits, etc., configure aquatic plant communities, grids and permeable dams, and build ecological ditches, sewage purification ponds, surface runoff storage pools and other facilities to purify farmland drainage and surface runoff. By 2020, the popularization coverage rate of soil testing and formula fertilization technology will reach more than 90%, the utilization rate of chemical fertilizers will increase to more than 40%, and the coverage rate of crop pests and diseases will reach more than 40%; The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta regions were completed one year ahead of schedule.(Led by the Ministry of Agriculture, with the participation of the Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Land and Resources, the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the Ministry of Water Resources and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine)
  Adjust the structure and layout of planting industry. Retreat land and reduce water in water-deficient areas on a trial basis. In areas where groundwater is easy to be polluted, priority should be given to planting crops with low fertilizer and drug demand and outstanding environmental benefits.

  The customer service of a well-known hotel in Haitang Bay, Sanya also said, "Recently, the booking volume has increased every day. According to the current booking situation, the room occupancy rate is about 50% during New Year’s Day."

  The reporter noted that during the New Year holiday, some rooms in some hotels in Sanya have been fully booked, and the prices have also increased significantly compared with usual. Take a hotel in Yalong Bay as an example. When the reporter inquired in mid-December, the price of a room was less than 1,000 yuan, which had risen to more than 2,000 yuan during the New Year holiday.

  During the New Year’s Day holiday, in addition to going to warm places such as Sanya for winter, popular projects such as hot springs are also welcomed by people, which has led to an increase in bookings of related hotels and homestays.

  Sang Sang, a post-90 s travel blogger, is very keen on winter hot springs. On New Year’s Day this year, she plans to have a hot spring "relay race" with her friends. First, she will go to Tengchong to experience volcanic hot springs, and then go to Guangdong and Haikou to soak in healthy soup. Sang Sang said: "The most basic respect for winter is to be ruined."

  People’s love for hot springs is also reflected in the booking volume. During the New Year’s Day holiday, some popular hot spring hotels and homestays in Beijing experienced a shortage of rooms and some rooms were sold out, and their prices also rose significantly.

  "Now, except for the four-room suite, all the other rooms have been booked." The customer service of a private soup resort hotel in Changping, Beijing told the reporter, "Every year on New Year’s Day, room reservations are very popular, and it is safer to book one month in advance."

  The reporter noticed that the room price of the private soup resort hotel ranged from several thousand yuan to ten thousand yuan. During the New Year’s Day, some rooms of 10,000 yuan have also been fully booked.

  In addition to soaking in hot springs, young people who pursue a sense of ritual have also unlocked more trendy gameplay to welcome the arrival of 2023. According to the data of flying pigs, skiing, visiting parks, visiting lakes, camping, cooking tea around the stove, killing hotel scripts, roaming ancient towns, watching fireworks and climbing mountains are the top ten popular ways to play on New Year’s Day in 2023.

  In addition, the Shanghai Disneyland Hotel was full on December 31st. In the Universal Studios Hotel in Beijing, some rooms have also been booked during the New Year holiday.

  During the Spring Festival, there may be a wave of outbound travel.

  Recently, the "Overall Plan for Implementing" Class B Management "for novel coronavirus Infection" was issued. It is clear that the outbound tourism of China citizens will be resumed in an orderly manner according to the international epidemic situation and various service guarantee capabilities.

  After the news was released, the search volume of international air tickets and hotels on major tourism service platforms rose rapidly.

  According to the data of Flying Pig, the search volume of international air tickets has increased by more than 8 times in an instant, and the service number of Flying Pig Digital Visa Center has increased by more than 8.3 times compared with last year. According to Ctrip data, within half an hour after the news was released, the search volume of popular overseas destinations on Ctrip platform rose 10 times year-on-year, and the search for outbound air tickets (including China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan) and overseas hotels reached the peak in three years.

  People’s enthusiasm for leaving the country is also reflected in the order volume. On the same journey platform, as of 14: 00 on the 27th, the order volume of international air tickets for the same journey increased by more than 400% month-on-month. The bookings of overseas hotels such as Hong Kong, Macau, Dubai, Kuala Lumpur and Pattaya increased significantly. As of 12 noon on the 27th, the single-day orders in Bangkok increased by 147%.

  As the seven-day holiday of the Spring Festival in the Year of the Rabbit will be ushered in next month, a wave of outbound travel in the Spring Festival may come.

  Ctrip data shows that the search popularity of many hot outbound destinations before the epidemic began to increase significantly during the Spring Festival in 2023. The search volume related to the Spring Festival outbound and group tour products has soared six times.

  China tourism academy recently released the annual report on the development of outbound tourism in China (2022&mdash; 2023) shows that from 2020 to 2022, the number of outbound tourists in China has decreased by 400 million, and outbound tourism has been seriously damaged.

  In the eyes of the industry, the resumption of outbound travel inspired by the New Deal will effectively restore the confidence of tourists, so that the backlog of outbound travel demand during the epidemic will begin to be released, and the implementation of the new policy will press the "acceleration button" for the recovery of outbound travel.
