News analysis: ChatGPT, change and risk

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, February 13th  News analysis: ChatGPT, change and risk

  Xinhua News Agency reporter Peng Qian Huang Kun

  ChatGPT, the big language model of American artificial intelligence company OpenAI, has reached 100 million monthly active users in January about two months after its launch, making it the fastest growing consumer application in history. Relevant experts predict that ChatGPT is not only a breakthrough of a new generation of chat robots, but also will bring great changes to the information industry. However, the risks brought by it, such as academic fraud, technology abuse and public opinion security, cannot be ignored.

  The prototype of a new generation operating system platform

  Write imaginative poems in multiple languages, write operational programs, quickly generate abstracts of papers, automatically make data tables, correct grammar and expression errors in articles, and write a news summary of the week … … ChatGPT can not only understand many human problems and instructions, but also smoothly carry out many rounds of dialogue, and also show its ability to solve a variety of general problems in more and more fields.

  ChatGPT also easily passed some professional-level tests that are difficult for human beings: it recently passed the Google Code L3 (entry-level) engineer test; Passed the final exam of MBA in wharton school and the postgraduate exam of four courses in the University of Minnesota with B and C+ respectively; Passed the qualification examination of American medical practitioners … … The industry described its birth as an "iPhone moment" in the era of artificial intelligence, which means that artificial intelligence has ushered in a revolutionary turning point.

  "The success of ChatGPT should not only be regarded as a breakthrough of a new generation of chat robots, but also pay attention to the revolution it has brought to artificial intelligence and even the entire information industry." Huang Tiejun, dean of Beijing Zhiyuan Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, said in an exclusive interview that the past decade in the field of artificial intelligence was a decade of deep learning, but there was no outbreak of mobile Internet and cloud computing level in the industry as a whole. "The emergence of ChatGPT is epoch-making, and the big model +ChatGPT has formed the prototype of a new generation of operating system platform."

  Huang Tiejun said that ChatGPT adopted the route of "big data+big computing power+strong algorithm = big model" in the technical path, and explored a new paradigm in the direction of "basic big model+instruction fine-tuning", in which the basic big model is similar to the brain, and instruction fine-tuning is interactive training, and the combination of the two realizes language intelligence approaching human beings. ChatGPT applies the training mode of "reinforcement learning based on human feedback", and uses human preferences as a reward signal to train the model, which makes the model more and more consistent with human cognitive understanding mode.

  "This kind of AI can help human beings to make real creation, especially to help human beings improve their creative efficiency, such as improving the efficiency of obtaining information or putting forward novel ideas, and then people can solve their authenticity problems. The improvement of creative efficiency will have great benefits and various influences, which can change the world information pattern. " Chen Xiaoping, director of the Robotics Laboratory of China University of Science and Technology, told reporters.

  Initiate a new round of artificial intelligence technology competition

  The advent of ChatGPT is triggering a new round of science and technology competition in the field of artificial intelligence. In the early morning of February 8th, Beijing time, Microsoft launched the latest version of bing search engine and Edge browser supported by ChatGPT, and announced that it would "reshape search". All products such as Microsoft’s Office and Azure cloud services will be integrated with ChatGPT across the board.

  In the early morning of February 7th, Beijing time, Google also released Bard, the next generation dialogue AI system based on Google LaMDA model. On the same day, Baidu officially announced that the large-scale model project "ERNIE Bot" under development is scheduled to complete internal testing in March and then open to the public. China enterprises such as Alibaba and JD.COM also indicated that they are developing or planning to develop similar products.

  The global competition in the field of artificial intelligence big model has become increasingly fierce. Huang Tiejun believes that ChatGPT is expected to evolve into a new generation of operating system platform and ecology in the future. This change is similar to the transformation of mobile Internet from personal computer to mobile phone, and most of the computing load will be taken over by the new generation information infrastructure with big model as the core. This new paradigm will affect all levels from application to infrastructure, causing great changes in the whole industrial structure. The ecological dispute between the big model and its software and hardware support system will become the focus of the information industry in the next decade.

  It is worth noting that ChatGPT sometimes "talks nonsense in a serious way", and there are many problems such as factual errors, blind spots in knowledge and common sense deviations. It also faces the general risks of artificial intelligence such as compliance of training data sources, bias in data use, generation of false information and copyright disputes. Many world-renowned academic journals have updated their editorial guidelines, including that any large-scale language model tool will not be accepted as a signed author of research papers.

  "The signed author of an academic paper must meet at least two conditions. One is to make ‘ Substantive contribution ’ The second is to be able to bear relevant responsibilities. At present, these two conditions ChatGPT (and other AI systems) are not satisfied. " Chen Xiaoping said.

  ChatGPT also has the potential to be used in public opinion information warfare. The research team of McGill University in Canada used the previous generation model GPT-2 of ChatGPT to read about 5,000 articles about the COVID-19 epidemic broadcast by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and then asked it to generate "counterfactual news" about the crisis. Even OpenAI warns users who use ChatGPT that it "may occasionally generate incorrect information" and "generate harmful instructions or biased content".

  "In order to solve these problems, we need to control the application boundary of ChatGPT while developing technology, establish the management regulations for the content generated by artificial intelligence, and evade the use of artificial intelligence to generate and disseminate false and bad content. At the same time, strengthen the development of governance tools and identify the content generated by artificial intelligence through technical means. This is an important prerequisite for content detection and work confirmation. " Tang Jiayu, vice president of Beijing Ruilai Smart Technology Co., Ltd. said.

Military police coup? American intervention? The resignation of Bolivia’s leadership shook America.

  [Global Times correspondent in Venezuela Zhang Weizhong Global Times correspondent Chen Xin] On the 10th local time, the Bolivian political situation changed dramatically: President Morales announced his resignation, and then the vice president, the speaker of the Senate, the speaker of the House of Representatives and several senior government officials also announced their resignations. Venezuela, Cuba, Mexico and other countries believe that there has been a coup in Bolivia. Some analysts believe that the drastic changes in Bolivia are related to the political intervention of the Organization of American States (OAS). On the day Morales announced his resignation, OAS issued a report saying that there was fraud in Bolivia’s recent general election, suggesting that the results of this election should be abolished and the election should be held again. The commander-in-chief of Bolivia’s armed forces and the commander-in-chief of the police later issued separate statements demanding that Morales resign. Morales’ resignation did not improve the chaotic situation in the country that lasted for weeks. On the evening of the 10th local time, there were incidents of vandalism and looting in several cities, including La Paz.

  The president was arrested?

  According to Bolivia’s "Daily" and "Russia Today" TV stations, Morales said at a news conference on the 10th that Bolivia experienced violence and provocation provoked by supporters of the "defeated party" and confrontation among citizens. The leftist leader in South America, who has served for the longest time, said that he didn’t want domestic confrontation and resigned in order to maintain peace and restore social stability in Bolivia. "I decided to resign as president, so that Mesa (the former president of Bolivia and the rival of Morales) and Camacho (the leader of the Bolivian opposition) would stop persecuting Bolivian brothers and sisters and never let them get hurt."

  After Morales announced his resignation, there was news in Bolivia that he was ordered to be arrested and fled. According to Sputnik news agency & radio, Bolivian Health Minister Montano said on the 10th that Bolivian police planned to arrest the former president, and Camacho also revealed this information. Morales confirmed on Twitter that he had been arrested. However, the commander-in-chief of the Bolivian police, Calderon, denied issuing an arrest warrant against Morales. In addition, it is reported that Morales intends to "escape" and may fly to Venezuela. In this regard, the former president said that he did not plan to leave Bolivia. "I don’t need to run away. I hope the Bolivian people know that I have not stolen anything. "

  According to the Bolivian National News Agency, the Bolivian police arrested the president and vice president of the Supreme Electoral Court and the heads of some regional branches on the order of the Ministry of the Interior. They were accused of violating the electoral law as described in the OAS report. Jenny Anes, an opposition politician and the second deputy speaker of the Senate, told Bolivian newspaper Seven Pages that she would be the acting president. The Bolivian Constitution does not stipulate who will take over the presidency if the President, the Vice President, the Speakers of the Senate and the House of Representatives and the First Deputy Speaker of the Senate all resign. Anes believes that after the resignation of the Speaker and the First Deputy Speaker of the Senate, she should be the Speaker of the Senate, so she should be the Acting President.

  Foreign interference?

  One of the most important factors contributing to Morales’ resignation is the Bolivian election audit report released by OAS10. According to media reports such as "Deutsche Welle", the Bolivian opposition did not recognize the results of the presidential and parliamentary elections held recently, and serious conflicts broke out between the supporters of the government and the opposition camps. Up to now, related activities have caused three deaths and hundreds of injuries. In order to quell political disputes, all parties in Bolivia invited OAS to review the election results. After OAS published the relevant report, Morales immediately announced that he would replace all members of the Supreme Electoral Court and hold a new general election. However, the opposition party demanded that he resign immediately. Subsequently, the Bolivian military also asked Morales to resign.

  The American "Nation" magazine said that OAS was suspected of interfering in Bolivia’s general election under the pressure of the United States. According to the report, Morales was one of the few left-wing leaders in Latin America, and the US government has been committed to letting them step down. The US government has always supported the former Bolivian President Mesa, and has been hostile to the Bolivian government since Morales took office in 2005. The two countries have no longer maintained diplomatic relations at the ambassadorial level since 2009. In addition, the United States government bears about 60% of the funds of OAS, which has been instructed by Washington to dictate the election results of other countries more than once. According to the report, when the first round of general election in Bolivia just ended, OAS questioned whether the general election was legal without evidence. The organization’s series of statements are consistent with the positions of the US government and some lawmakers, which has influenced some media reports and become a tool to discredit Bolivia’s election.

  Multinational solidarity

  According to Sputnik news agency & radio, after Morales resigned, many Latin American countries expressed their support for him. Venezuelan President Maduro said on Twitter that he "resolutely condemned" the coup against Morales. Diaz Canel, President of the Republic of Cuba, believes that Morales’ resignation is the result of a coup. Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez said that Cuba called on all countries to support and protect Morales’ life and freedom. Mexican Foreign Minister Ebrard said that Mexico is willing to provide asylum if Morales needs it. According to the British "Daily Mail" report, even Labour Party leader Corbin expressed sympathy for Morales. He believes that "it is shocking that this person who brought great social progress was forced to step down by the military."

  However, the Brazilian government believes that Morales’ stepping down was forced to resign under pressure, not being ousted in a coup. The Russian Foreign Ministry issued a statement calling on all political forces in Bolivia to take responsibility and seek a constitutional solution to the current crisis. China’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Geng Shuang said that China hopes that all Bolivian parties concerned will resolve their differences peacefully within the framework of the Constitution and laws and restore social stability as soon as possible.

  The struggle is not over yet.

  According to the Bolivian media Razon, after Morales announced his resignation, riots and arson and attacks on officials’ houses continued in the administrative capital La Paz. Fifteen buses were burned. Morales’ house in Cochabamba was damaged. A business in El Alto, near La Paz, was set on fire and looted. Local residents in La Paz said in an interview with the Global Times on the 11th that there were incidents of vandalism and looting in some neighborhoods on the evening of the 10th. In order to avoid being targeted by mobs, many people were afraid to turn on the lights and light candles for washing at night. After Morales resigned, there was a power vacuum in Bolivia and the political prospect was uncertain, which made the people in the country very worried.

  Qatar Al Jazeera said that the current political situation in Bolivia is very unstable, and the situation seems to continue to deteriorate. "If you don’t keep calm, a slightly angry Mars will ignite a fire." The British "Daily Mail" said that Morales is the idol of leftists in Latin America, and left-wing parties have a rising trend in some Latin American regions. Under this background, Morales’ stepping down may bring impact to the region.

Lutong Technology: The company’s products have covered the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, Vietnam, India, France, Italy, Britain and other countries and regions.

  () Financial Research Center on August 8th, some investors asked (), Hello, Secretary Dong. 1. The company vigorously promotes UTV electric all-terrain vehicles. Are there sufficient orders at present? What are the advantages of the company’s products compared with similar products in the same industry? How many moats (patents) are there? 2. The company’s products are mainly exported, and the customers are relatively single. The sales volume of the largest customer accounts for a high proportion, which is highly dependent and risky. How to deal with this? 3. Does the company enjoy tax incentives and government subsidies as a specialized and innovative small and medium-sized enterprise? 4. The company’s share price has been broken for more than half a year. What positive measures has the management taken to appease investors (such as repurchasing shares, acquiring and merging high-quality upstream enterprises, and holding a seminar on investors’ stock price breaking)?

  The company replied, Dear investors, hello. In response to your concerns, the reply is as follows: 1. The company’s UTV all-terrain vehicle products are under development and optimization, and have not been mass-produced yet. The company will actively pay attention to market opportunities according to the industry development and market demand, combined with the actual situation of the company; 2. The risk you mentioned: (1) About the region: the company mainly exports, which is determined by the market demand. The global golf courses are mainly concentrated in North America, Europe and some developed countries, and the number of domestic golf courses is small. To this end, the company continues to promote the sales of electric sightseeing bus, trucks, patrol cars and other products in China to increase the domestic market share; (2) About customers: In recent years, the company has adopted the strategy of cultivating high-quality big customers and giving priority to meeting the order demand of big customers, and its performance has been rapidly increased in the past few years. At present, the share of the company’s major customers in the US market is still low. To this end, on the one hand, the company will continue to cooperate with major customers to actively explore the American market and increase its market share; On the other hand, the company is also constantly strengthening its marketing capabilities and striving for more non-American market share. At present, the company’s products have covered the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, Vietnam, India, France, Italy, Britain and other countries and regions. However, the customer dependence problem you mentioned will still exist in the short term, so please pay attention to the investment risk; 3. At present, as a high-tech enterprise, the company pays enterprise income tax at a preferential tax rate of 15%; 4. The management of the company has been working hard with a highly responsible attitude towards all shareholders.Ensure the steady development of the company and return to investors. If there are relevant specific plans, the information disclosure obligations will be fulfilled in strict accordance with the regulations. Above, thank you for your attention to the company!

Leading indicators show that the overall economic recovery in China is obvious.

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, March 31st Question: The leading indicators show that the overall economic recovery in China is obvious.

  Xinhua News Agency reporters Zhou Wenqi, Xin Guo and Zhang Wenjing.

  According to the latest data, the purchasing managers’ index (PMI) of China’s manufacturing industry was in the expansion range for the third consecutive month in March.

  According to the data released by the Service Industry Research Center of the National Bureau of Statistics of China and China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing on the 31st, the purchasing managers’ index (PMI) of manufacturing industry was 51.9% in March, which was 0.7 percentage points lower than that of the previous month and higher than the critical point, and the manufacturing industry kept expanding.

  "Affected by factors such as the high base last month, the manufacturing PMI declined in March, and the prosperity level was still the highest in the past two years. Among the 21 industries surveyed, 13 industries had higher PMI than last month." Zhao Qinghe, senior statistician of the Service Industry Research Center of the National Bureau of Statistics, said.

  From October to December, 2022, China’s manufacturing PMI was 49.2%, 48% and 47% respectively, and it was in the contraction range for three consecutive months. In January 2023, it jumped to 50.1% and returned to the expansion range. In February, it climbed to 52.6%.

  Zhang Liqun, a researcher at the the State Council Development Research Center, said that since October last year, the manufacturing PMI has relatively quickly returned from threshold to the line of prosperity and decline. Although it fell back in March this year compared with February, 51.9% is still at a higher level on the line of prosperity and decline.

  "Although there is a slight fluctuation, the situation that the manufacturing PMI has been on the line of prosperity and decline for three consecutive months shows that the level of economic activity in China has continued to rise, the vitality of business entities has gradually increased, and the overall economic recovery trend is obvious." Zhang Liqun said.

  According to statistics, the PMI of large, medium and small enterprises in March was 53.6%, 50.3% and 50.4% respectively, all above the critical point.

  Zhao Xijun, co-dean of China Capital Market Research Institute of Renmin University of China, said that in the past, sometimes the manufacturing PMI was higher than 50%, but the performance of SMEs was poor. Nowadays, the PMI of large, medium and small enterprises is in the expansion range, indicating that the production and operation of various business entities are steadily recovering.

  In addition, the production index in March was 54.6%, and the new order index was 53.6%.

  Zhao Xijun said that these two figures have reached a high level of prosperity, which not only shows that the manufacturing enterprises have increased their production tasks, started well, and the overall market has improved, but also shows that the policy of "stabilizing the economy and expanding domestic demand" is constantly showing results.

  The performance of non-manufacturing industry is even brighter. In March, the business activity index of non-manufacturing industry was 58.2%, up by 1.9 percentage points from the previous month, which was significantly higher than the critical point, indicating that the pace of recovery and development of non-manufacturing industry was accelerated.

  Zhao Qinghe said that from the perspective of industry, the business activity index of retail, railway transportation, road transportation, air transportation, leasing and business services is higher than 60.0%, indicating that residents’ willingness to consume and travel has increased recently, and the market activity of related industries has rebounded rapidly.

  Like the latest manufacturing PMI and non-manufacturing business activity index, many economic indicators released in March all showed an "upward curve", conveying the warmth and vitality of China’s economic recovery.

  In the first two months of this year, the total retail sales of consumer goods in China increased by 3.5% year-on-year. Investment in fixed assets increased by 5.5% year-on-year, 0.4 percentage points faster than the annual growth rate of last year; Total export value increased by 0.9% year-on-year & hellip; … The "troika" driving economic growth is in a steady trend.

  Qunar. com statistics show that in the first three weeks of March, the number of flight bookings in several cities in China exceeded the same period in 2019; According to the monitoring data of the State Post Bureau, as of March 8, the express delivery business in China reached 20 billion pieces in 2023, 72 days ahead of 2019; According to data released by the People’s Bank of China, the scale of social financing increased by 3.16 trillion yuan in February, 1.95 trillion yuan more than the same period last year … … The activity of people flow, logistics and capital flow has been significantly improved.

  After raising the GDP growth forecast of China in 2023 from 5.2% to 5.5% in January, the investment bank Goldman Sachs recently raised the growth forecast to 6%.

  "The solid material and technical foundation for economic development, the rapid and stable transition of epidemic prevention and control, the appropriate and effective macroeconomic policies, and the increasing confidence of business entities have made China’s economy steadily pick up and continue to improve after the start of the year." Zhang Liqun said that China’s economy has steadily entered the track of recovery, and the prospect of recovery is relatively clear, and it is expected to get out of the economic growth curve of sustained recovery throughout the year.

  In 2023, China’s economic operation started well. Looking forward to the whole year, people in the industry believe that although China’s economic development is still facing pressure and challenges, with the gradual consolidation of the foundation of economic recovery and the continuous implementation of measures to stabilize the economy, it is expected to continue to recover to a good situation throughout the year.

It’s about you and me Five major changes will take place in social security this year.

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, April 6th Question: It’s about you and me! Five major changes will take place in social security this year.

Xinhua News Agency "Xinhua Viewpoint" reporters Jiang Lin and Peng Yunjia

Pensions for retired employees will usher in "18 consecutive rises", and reimbursement for medical treatment in other places will be more convenient, and pilot projects for occupational injury protection for flexible employees such as take-away riders will be carried out …

Social security concerns thousands of families. This year, our social security will usher in many new changes.

Change 1: How much does the retirement pension increase? Have the answer before the end of June.

This year’s government work report proposes to appropriately raise the basic pension standards for retirees and urban and rural residents to ensure timely and full payment. This means that the pensions of retired employees will usher in "18 consecutive rises" and the pensions of urban and rural residents will also be improved.

In terms of employee pension insurance, the pension benefits were raised in 2021, which benefited 127 million retirees. How will it rise in 2022? How much is it going up? The "Opinions on Implementing the Division of Key Work in the Government Work Report" recently issued by the State Council requires that the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the Ministry of Finance take the lead and issue relevant policies before the end of June.

"Insist on improving people’s livelihood in development, not only do your best, but also do what you can." Zheng Gongcheng, president of China Social Security Society, said that in 2022, China will also promote the national overall planning of old-age insurance, and the funds will help each other across the country, so that the pension payment in difficult areas will be more secure.

In terms of endowment insurance for urban and rural residents, in the past year, 17 provinces and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps raised the basic pension for urban and rural residents, benefiting more than 78 million elderly people, most of whom were rural residents.

This year, in addition to raising the national basic pension standard determined by the central government, up to now, seven provinces including Fujian, Jiangsu, Hainan, Xizang, Ningxia, Guizhou and Shanxi have announced the provincial-level basic pension raising plan for urban and rural residential insurance. Sichuan and other provinces have also made it clear that it will be raised during the year.

Change 2: How to promote the direct settlement of cross-provincial medical treatment? Announced before the end of June

According to the requirements, improve the direct settlement method for medical treatment across provinces and different places, and introduce relevant policies before the end of June. It will undoubtedly be the direction of policy to make it easier for people to go through the reimbursement procedures for medical treatment in different places.

At present, the inter-provincial direct settlement of hospitalization expenses has covered all provinces, all overall planning areas, all kinds of insured persons and main out-going personnel.

The coverage of inter-provincial direct settlement of outpatient expenses has been further expanded. There are 826 designated medical institutions in 63 co-ordination areas across the country, and pilot projects have been launched to directly settle the treatment expenses related to five outpatient chronic and special diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes, radiotherapy and chemotherapy for malignant tumors, uremia dialysis and anti-rejection treatment after organ transplantation.

By the end of February this year, 49,200 designated medical institutions and 89,800 designated retail pharmacies had been directly settled across provinces.

According to Long Xuewen, the person in charge of the Medical Insurance Management Center of the National Medical Insurance Bureau, the pilot areas will be guided to speed up the transformation of information systems, expand the pilot scope of cross-provincial direct settlement of outpatient chronic and special diseases, and promote the online and offline settlement of hospitalization and outpatient expenses by classification.

Previously, the State Council requested that there should be at least one designated medical institution in each county before the end of 2022, which can provide inter-provincial direct settlement services for medical expenses, including outpatient expenses.

Change 3: How to invest personal pension? Clear before the end of April

Developing a multi-level and multi-pillar endowment insurance system is an important measure to actively cope with the aging population and realize the sustainable development of the endowment insurance system.

In China, the basic old-age insurance system as the first pillar is basically sound; As the second pillar, the enterprise annuity and occupational annuity systems have been initially established and gradually improved; However, the development of the third pillar is not standardized, especially the individual pension system has not yet been introduced, which makes residents lack the pension investment channels to obtain more stable and greater benefits.

According to the deployment, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the Ministry of Finance and China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission will take the lead in the work of "continuing to standardize the development of the third pillar endowment insurance", and relevant policies will be issued before the end of April.

According to the reporter’s understanding, the top-level design has been made clear at present, and the third pillar includes two parts: personal savings endowment insurance and commercial endowment insurance, all of which are voluntarily participated by individuals. Among them, the design of tax policy and preferential strength are the key factors.

The Opinions on Promoting the Development of Personal Pension was reviewed and approved by the Central Committee for Deep Reform in December 2021. "After the document is issued, our department will work with relevant departments to formulate supporting policies to promote the implementation of the system and provide a better institutional guarantee for the people’s pension." The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security said.

According to industry insiders, there are two main tasks. First, establish a personal pension system supported by taxation and other policies, and plan to adopt a personal account system to provide more institutional options for workers participating in basic old-age insurance to accumulate personal pensions. The second is to standardize the development of personal commercial pension financial products and operate and supervise them in accordance with market rules. The two support each other and jointly promote the development of the third pillar.

Change 4: When will the scope of national medical insurance drugs be unified? Completed before the end of December.

Led by the National Medical Insurance Bureau, the related work of basically unifying the scope of medical insurance drugs in China will be completed by the end of December. This indicates that the national basic unified medical insurance drug list is coming soon, and the chemical drugs and proprietary Chinese medicines included in the basic medical insurance payment scope will be basically the same.

According to the opinion of deepening the reform of the medical security system, it is required to "reasonably divide the responsibilities and authority of the central and local catalogues, and each region shall not make its own catalogue or adjust the limited payment scope of medical insurance drugs".

Previously, the National Medical Insurance Bureau has issued the Interim Measures for the Administration of Medication for Basic Medical Insurance, continuously promoting the digestion of supplementary drugs at the provincial level, and laying a good foundation for unifying the scope of medication for basic medical insurance in the country and standardizing the medical insurance payment policy.

The reporter learned from relevant departments that on the basis of unification, the state will further establish and improve the regulation and index system of medical insurance drug list, and timely include drugs with high clinical value, obvious benefits for patients and excellent economic evaluation into the scope of medical insurance payment according to procedures, so as to provide more new drugs and good drugs for the people.

Since the establishment of the National Medical Insurance Bureau, the national medical insurance drug list has been adjusted for four consecutive years. A total of 507 drugs have been added to the national medical insurance payment scope, and a number of "magic drugs" and "zombie drugs" have been transferred out of the list. More than 40 kinds of drugs for rare diseases listed in China have been included in the national medical insurance drug list.

Change 5: How to protect occupational injury protection? Continue to advance during the year.

Occupational injury protection is a "new type of industrial injury insurance" created for take-away riders and network car drivers. The Opinions on Implementing the Division of Key Work in the Government Work Report proposes to strengthen flexible employment services, improve the social security policy for flexible employment, and carry out the pilot project of occupational injury protection for new employment forms, which will be continuously promoted during the year.

Due to the lack of stable labor relations, it is often difficult for new employment forms to obtain work-related injury insurance protection. However, with the promotion of relevant policies, the new employment forms of employees in pilot cities and related platforms this year will fill the shortcomings of occupational injury protection.

Wang Xing, CEO of Meituan, said recently that Meituan will actively participate in the pilot project of occupational injury protection under the guidance of policies, ensure that the pilot project is carried out according to the planned schedule, and will pay all the expenses of participating riders.

"At present, Beijing, Shanghai, Sichuan and other provinces have begun to carry out pilot preparations for occupational injury protection in the travel, take-away, instant delivery and freight transportation industries in the same city." Zhang Chenggang, director of the New Employment Form Research Center in China, capital university of economics and business, said that with the establishment of a national unified information platform, the pilot project of occupational injury protection will officially land, and explore experience and accumulate data for later promotion throughout the country.

What situations can occupational injury protection cover? How about compensation? According to industry insiders, occupational injury protection is paid by platform enterprises, and employees do not pay. The scope and situation of its protection and the standard and level of treatment are consistent with the industrial injury insurance as a whole.

Inter-provincial support for all-out rescue; electricity consumption of affected residents in parts of Hebei and Beijing has basically recovered.

  In the past few days, in order to cope with the impact of extreme rainfall in many places, the State Grid has made overall arrangements for emergency repair forces, and set up rescue teams in Beijing, Hebei, Jilin, Heilongjiang, Liaoning and other places to go all out to repair and ensure power supply.

  It is understood that the State Grid has dispatched personnel from Tianjin, Henan, Shaanxi, Gansu Electric Power and other units of the State Grid to set up nearly 20 rescue teams, carrying emergency generator cars, high-power generators, mobile substations and other equipment to support Hebei and Beijing in an emergency manner, and deployed 5 emergency rescue helicopter units and 2 emergency patrol drone units. In view of Fangshan and Mentougou areas with serious disasters, State Grid Beijing Electric Power deployed more than 4,600 support personnel from various districts and equipped more than 1,100 emergency vehicles. At the same time, State Grid Jilin, Heilongjiang and Liaoning Electric Power also launched the emergency response to flood control and typhoon prevention for the first time, and dispatched operation and maintenance support and emergency repair personnel to ensure the electricity consumption of local residents.

  As of 12: 00 on August 6, 93 residential communities in Zhuozhou City, Hebei Province have resumed formal or temporary power supply, and the residential communities in the main city have recovered more than 95%.

Implement detailed flood control and disaster relief measures

  This is a touching scene in flood control and disaster relief. On August 3rd, in Jingya Middle School, Diaowo Town, Zhuozhou City, Hebei Province, firefighters and rescuers drove rubber boats here to rescue the trapped people. Because the height difference between the platform of the window on the second floor and the rescue boat was more than one meter, most of the trapped people were old people and children. Cao Boyuan, a firefighter involved in the rescue mission, crouched half-way, grabbed the platform with his hands, took his shoulders as a ladder and his back as a bridge, and built a life-saving passage with his own body to let the trapped people step on his shoulders and board the boat. In the past few days, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and other places and relevant departments have made every effort to carry out flood control and disaster relief work, and rescue forces from all sides are racing against time to rescue.

  Flood control and disaster relief are related to the safety of people’s lives and property, food security, economic security, social security and national security. It is very important to do a good job in flood control and disaster relief. During an inspection tour in Jiangsu, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that "all localities and departments should base themselves on preventing floods, fighting droughts and saving major disasters, adhere to the people first, putting life first, and be responsible, responsible and conscientious in defending the soil"; During his inspection tour in Sichuan, the general secretary emphasized that "the main responsibility of flood control and disaster relief should be fully implemented"; Recently, the General Secretary made important instructions on flood control and disaster relief work, demanding "to fully protect people’s lives and property safety and overall social stability" … … A series of important instructions have pointed out the direction for flood control and disaster relief.

  Flood control and disaster relief is a big test, which tests the disaster prevention and relief system and emergency management ability, and tests the feelings and responsibilities for the people. "There are more than 20 villages lost in front, and the people are waiting for us to enter." This is the firm determination of a people’s army to overcome all difficulties. "As party member, I must stand up", which is a solemn oath of a young Communist party member. "To ensure the life, health and safety of the affected people, there is no room for carelessness", which is the unchanging belief of a grassroots doctor to protect health. Emergency rescue is related to the safety of the masses, and we can’t wait or slow down. Adhering to the people first and life first means trying every means to create all conditions, eliminate all difficulties and ensure the safety of people’s lives and property.

  The people’s interests are above everything else, and the responsibility for flood control is more important than Mount Tai. At present, it is the most vigorous stage of "seven downs and eight ups" flood control. The flood in Haihe River basin is flowing to the downstream plain area, with a large number of reservoirs exceeding the flood limit, the opening of flood storage and detention areas has increased, and the rain in Northeast China is still strong. Typhoon Kanu this year has brought strong wind and rain impact to Jiangsu and Zhejiang coastal areas, and the task of flood control and disaster relief is arduous. The more complicated the situation is, the more we must tighten our strings, the more we must maintain a sense of responsibility that we can’t rest assured at all times, enhance the sense of urgency that cannot be delayed, and boost the spirit of taking action. Only by firmly shouldering the responsibility and dealing with the uncertainty of flood with the certainty of various measures can we minimize casualties and property losses. All regions and relevant departments must firmly establish the bottom line thinking and extreme thinking, deal with small probability events with high probability thinking, take the initiative to prevent and resolve risks, strengthen monitoring, forecasting and early warning, strengthen patrol duty, keep a close eye on key parts of flood control, and implement various flood control and disaster relief measures.

  Recently, due to heavy rainfall, the K396 train was forced to stay near Luopoling Station in Mentougou District, Beijing. In order to give nearly 1,000 passengers the greatest possible care, the residents of Luopoling community took out their home materials to help the trapped passengers without reservation. The story of helping each other through thick and thin has touched countless netizens. If we tighten the string of flood control, make more detailed emergency preparations, and take more concrete responsibility measures, we will not be afraid of the wind and rain, face up to difficulties, unite as one, and unite as one, and we will certainly be able to gather the majestic forces to overcome floods and win the tough battle of flood control and disaster relief.

How to calculate power consumption? What is the formula for calculating power consumption?

Calculation method of electrical appliances’ power consumption: No matter what kind of electrical appliances are, the power (watts, represented by the letter W) will be marked on the manual or nameplate. Usually, what kind of kilowatt-hour is what we call the power consumption, and the concept is the power consumed by an electrical appliance with a power of 1000(W) in one hour.

In this question, W=P*T, where w is work, that is, the consumed electric energy; P is power; T is time. 350W*1h=350wh=0.35Kwh=0.35 degrees.

Calculation formula: 1KW×1 1h =1 kwh, 350w ÷ 1000w = 0.35kw × 1h =0.35KWH (kwh).

He was once reported by his real name to accept "buying road money", a "big brother" in the calligraphy industry, and was investigated.

On the morning of October 28th, the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Team of the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in the Central Propaganda Department and the Shandong Provincial Supervision Commission announced that Zhao Changqing, the former party secretary and former vice chairman of the China Calligraphers Association, was suspected of serious violation of discipline and law, and was currently under disciplinary review by the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Team of the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in the Central Propaganda Department and supervision investigation by the Shandong Provincial Supervision Commission.

According to the public resume, Zhao Changqing is 66 years old. He joined the work in December 1970 and joined the Communist Party of China (CPC) in November 1971. He has served as deputy secretary of the Heilongjiang Provincial Committee, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee and secretary of the Party Group of the Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles.

Zhao Changqing’s works

As the vice chairman of China Calligraphers Association and a well-known person in the calligraphy field, Zhao Changqing’s investigation has also aroused people’s concern about anti-corruption in the cultural circle.

Zhao Changqing once published an oral article "Calligrapher Zhao Changqing: Write Well and Be a Good Person", which said: I was born in the countryside, grew up in the county, worked and lived in a big city, and I have always been attached to calligraphy. In the northeast words, I have been "walking with words" in my life. Now, I have become a calligrapher, and I am content! A person, you can’t get everything. If you take the right path and realize your own life value, it is your greatest happiness. It is my childhood dream to be fascinated by calligraphy and send love poems, which is the greatest pleasure in my life. Although calligraphy is a "road of no return", I must stick to it.

However, as early as 2015, Zhao Changqing was reported by his real name. The article lists ten channels for Zhao Changqing to collect money through the platform of China Calligraphers Association. Such as "selling words openly to collect money" and "taking advantage of the opportunity of calligraphers to join the calligraphers’ association, accepting them ‘ Buy a road ’ Collect money "and so on.

In fact, there are not a few "official calligraphers" who have been investigated and dealt with in anti-corruption work in recent years. Judging from the existing cases, some fallen officials once had an "elegance addiction" in calligraphy, but in the quagmire of corruption, the original normal hobby has become an "elegance bribe".

On February 3, 2019, Jin Suidong, former deputy secretary and vice chairman of the Henan Provincial Political Consultative Conference, was expelled from the Party. One of the contents in the circular issued by the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection is "selling my calligraphy works at a high price". It is worth noting that "selling my calligraphy works at a high price" is placed under the problem of abuse of power. After the erosion of power and money transactions, the original normal calligraphy price may become "sky-high", but it has deviated from the essence of art. In July, 2019, Zhang Yongle, the former director of Shangqiu Municipal Government Office in Zhengzhou, was investigated. He was a well-known local calligrapher.

Wei Chuanzhong, a member of the former Party Group and Deputy Director of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, who was "double-opened" on September 7, 2019, is very fond of calligraphy and was once a member of the China Calligraphers Association. Before his downfall, he was quite active in the calligraphy field both at home and abroad, and he also published Wei Chuanzhong’s Calligraphy Collection, Wei Chuanzhong’s Calligraphy and Chinese Studies in Mo Yun — — Wei Chuanzhong’s Selected Works of Famous Sentences in Calligraphy and Chinese Studies and many other works. On November 24, 2018, China Excellent Family Style Family Training — — Wei Chuanzhong et al. Painting and Calligraphy Exhibition was held in Zhejiang Province. In his speech at the opening ceremony, Wei Chuanzhong said: "If everyone can take the traditional culture of clean government as the goal, our society will be a harmonious society, a positive society, an honest society and a legal society."

There is no forbidden zone, no time limit and no dead angle in anti-corruption, and the art of calligraphy cannot be defiled. If the atmosphere of corruption erodes the cultural circles, it will inevitably have a bad influence on artistic creation. Zhao Changqing’s case embodies the clear attitude of the Party and the state that greed must be countered and corruption must be eliminated. This is a wake-up call for corrupt officials who are still lucky. In the face of party discipline and state law, no one can be an exception, and the party and the country will surely win this anti-corruption struggle.
