□ Chutian Metropolis Daily’s most eye-catching journalist Chen Lingyan correspondent Belan Zeng Zuokuan

Liu Liming is the director of the Department of Hepatology of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine in the Third People’s Hospital of Hubei Province. He has been fighting hard in the field of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine to tackle liver diseases. He is kind to patients and often helps them out of his own pocket. Since joining the work, he has been using weekends and holidays to go to districts, counties and mountain villages to train grassroots medical staff, teach them to choose cheap but effective drugs, and help local patients control their illness.

What is the relationship between doctors and patients? Liu Liming’s answer is: the relationship of "treating each other with sincerity".

Doctors treat diseases.

Try your best to carry the patient across the river.

In 2006, Liu Liming entered the hepatology department of the Third People’s Hospital of Hubei Province. Since then, he has been dealing with various liver diseases. "Doctors treating diseases are like carrying patients across the river one by one." The metaphor of Wu Mengchao, an academician of China Academy of Sciences and the father of hepatobiliary surgery in China, is deeply engraved in Liu Liming’s mind. Doctors should try their best to pick up the patient and then deliver the patient to the other side of health.

Patients put their rehabilitation hopes in the hands of doctors, and doctors need to constantly improve their skills to help them realize their rehabilitation wishes. Liu Liming delves into the business, constantly summarizes it at the same time, and makes adjustments and innovations according to the needs of patients. Based on the characteristics of liver diseases in China and the changes of liver disease spectrum in recent years, he set up a sub-specialist diagnosis and treatment team for liver diseases in the department, including liver cancer diagnosis and treatment team, fatty liver diagnosis and treatment team and autoimmune liver disease diagnosis and treatment team to provide accurate personalized diagnosis and treatment for patients with liver cancer at all stages. For example, the fatty liver diagnosis and treatment team gives full play to the characteristics and advantages of traditional Chinese medicine, and combines traditional Chinese medicine treatments such as medicated diet, acupuncture, catgut embedding and packaging; The diagnosis and treatment team of autoimmune liver disease innovatively launched the disease management model of "self-immune liver diagnosis-treatment-long-term follow-up" to be a long-term "healthy housekeeper" of patients. Liu Liming led a team to carry out a number of scientific research achievements, such as "anti-fibrosis and liver softening prescription", "anti-liver failure compound prescription" and "strengthening the body to detoxify and dispersing stagnation prescription", some of which reached the international advanced level, and the department also successfully established a key specialty of traditional Chinese medicine in Hubei Province.

Not only save lives

He also wants to save money for patients.

In addition to saving lives, Liu Liming also has a small habit-helping patients to make careful calculations and calculate "economic accounts". In his view, patients are suffering from diseases, and doctors should not only cure them, but also help them save money as much as possible, which is what doctors should do. Driven by Liu Liming, every doctor in the department has set himself an extra requirement: screening examination items and medication according to the patient’s condition and economic affordability. Can do or not do the inspection, don’t do it; Drugs that can be used or not, no need; If you can solve the problem with cheap medicine, you don’t need expensive medicine.

Liu Liming not only saves money for patients, but also often subsidizes patients in need. Last August, an 80-year-old man in Xinzhou District came to see a doctor with an old hen. "Doctor, my son is not at home, can I use my old hen to pay for medical expenses?" The old man asked. Without saying anything, Liu Liming immediately paid for 600 yuan’s medicine for the old man, and repeatedly urged the old man to take the chicken back. Who knows that when the old man left, he quietly left the old hen behind the door of the clinic. When the old man came to see a doctor again, Liu Liming took out 200 yuan and "bought" the old hen.

Among Liu Liming’s WeChat friends, more than 700 are patients he treated. Everyone will leave messages for him every day when he meets any health problems, and he will reply one by one, which has become everyone’s "family doctor". This "family doctor" has been friends with many patients for many years. He not only treats them, but also treats their hearts.

The 80-year-old Xiao’s mother-in-law has suffered from hepatitis B and liver cirrhosis for many years. Liu Liming designed the treatment of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine for her, and the old man’s condition was well controlled. However, three years ago, Xiao’s wife died unfortunately, which made her fall into depression. Liu Liming found that the old man’s mood was wrong. After learning about this situation, he would accompany his mother-in-law Xiao to say a few words every time he made a diagnosis or made a follow-up, trying to comfort her mood, thus "helping" the old man out of his grief step by step.

In 2021, a 3 cm tumor appeared on Xiao’s mother-in-law’s liver. Liu Liming completed interventional therapy for her, supplemented by traditional Chinese medicine, and helped the elderly get out of danger again. Every three to five, he also asked questions through WeChat. Grandma Xiao said to everyone, "Director Liu is better to me than my children!"

Go from the countryside to the town

Let more people "know more"

As a doctor, Liu Liming has a good reputation among patients, and more and more people are looking for him to see a doctor. But he understands that it is not enough to rely on the strength of one person or one department in the face of the huge needs of patients.

"My aunt was less than 50 years old and died unfortunately because of liver cancer caused by hepatitis B. Her child was infected with hepatitis B virus through mother-to-child transmission." Liu Liming said that this incident had a great influence on him, which was also the reason why he decided to study medicine. "Later, I used what I learned to successfully let my cousin block mother-to-child transmission."

Liu Liming realized that ordinary people don’t know much about medicine. When faced with diseases, they are often at a loss. "In fact, many diseases are preventable and controllable, especially liver diseases. Sometimes, as long as you know more, the results will be completely different."

Since joining the work, Liu Liming has always insisted on one thing: being a "healthy volunteer". On weekends and holidays, he went to various districts, counties and mountain villages to carry out free clinic propaganda and health science popularization, train primary medical staff, and help the construction of hepatology department in primary medical institutions. Village doctors have relatively little experience, so Liu Liming popularized and updated new knowledge of diagnosis and medication for them. "As long as I have been to places, village doctors have mastered better medication methods. They will prescribe cheap but effective anti-hepatitis drugs for patients in need. "

In 2020, the Third People’s Hospital of Hubei Province set up a youth master group, with Liu Liming as the head, and organized the doctors of the youth master group to go to the community and go to the grassroots level. In the past two years, the Youth Expo Group has given free clinics and health talks to more than 2,000 people, and has also conducted more than 40 academic salon lectures for young doctors and training for primary doctors, and trained more than 1,000 primary medical and health personnel.

　　A few years ago, "brushing your face" was used by friends to tease each other. In a blink of an eye, eating by "face" has become a reality. Previously, the first smart subway in Guangzhou achieved "brushing face". Under the 5G tuyere, the major payment giants are gearing up, and the payment for brushing their faces begins to speed up.

　　Brush face payment makes people’s lives more convenient.

　　Bus card, change, mobile phone … … You don’t need to bring them all. In Guangzhou, just brush your face by subway! According to media reports, recently, Guangzhou’s first smart subway station was opened, and passengers can brush their faces without feeling the barrier. Face recognition is completed within 300 milliseconds, and 40 people can pass every minute.

　　Guiyang, as an inland capital city, opened the experience scene of subway face-brushing payment to the public as early as this year’s Expo. The general feedback from the public is, "It’s too fast and convenient to brush your face for seconds!"

　　At present, Guiyang is taking advantage of its own big data development to implement the application project of public transportation brush face. It is expected that by the end of 2019, some lines of Guiyang subway and bus will try to pay for brush face. Guiyang will gradually build a face-brushing consumption ecology, and realize "one registration, face brushing in the whole city" in the urban area.

　　I don’t know when it started, but face-brushing payment has penetrated into people’s daily life.

　　Xin Yang, deputy director of the National Engineering Laboratory of Disaster Recovery Technology and professor of Cyberspace Security College of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, said that from the original KFC KPRO restaurant to today’s pharmacies, supermarkets, convenience stores and many other offline retail scenes, more than one million consumers across the country have taken the lead in experiencing the convenience of paying by brushing their faces. At the same time, in the field of "internet plus government affairs", users in more than 170 cities have completed identity verification by brushing their faces, and handled matters such as provident fund withdrawal and tax inquiry online.

　　The era of brush face payment is gradually approaching.

　　"Brush face" under 5G tuyere speeds up and warms up.

　　Up to now, with the advent of the 5G era and the deep integration of technologies such as internet plus, AI intelligence, cloud computing and Internet of Things, the payment for face brushing has started to speed up and warm up.

　　Xinyang believes that compared with scanning code payment, face-brushing payment will bring more convenience to people, such as easy payment in the case of carrying heavy objects; Moreover, due to the superposition of AR capabilities, the payment scenario is more interesting.

　　On the other hand, in the face of increasing labor costs, face-brushing payment can better open up sources and reduce expenses for businesses.

　　The daily workload of a face brushing machine is equivalent to three cashiers. If 10 consumers check out at the same time, the traditional mode takes 56 seconds, while the face brushing only takes 10 seconds.

　　In Xinyang’s view, the greater imagination of face-brushing payment lies in its drainage ability and interactive marketing. "This is a new traffic portal in the future. Before and after payment, merchants can make unlimited extensions, such as combining consumption records and preferences to recommend suitable products to consumers. This is the real value of brush face payment and the future development direction. "

　　Xinyang predicts that Ali and Tencent are spending huge sums of money to promote and research the face-brushing payment technology, and the whole industry has great development prospects. In the next five years, face-brushing payment will show a spurt of growth and reshape the ecology of the entire payment industry and retail catering industry.

　　Strengthening the security line will be the top priority.

　　By uploading your own high-definition photos, you can replace the face of the protagonist in the classic film and television drama clips with your own face and perform with your beloved idol … … A few days ago, an APP called "Face Change" became popular on the Internet, which triggered a network carnival. However, because users need to blink and look up when they change their faces, which is similar to the face information collected when they pay by brushing their faces, the public can’t help but ask: At the moment when face-washing payment is becoming more and more popular, will the small video after "face-changing" fall into the hands of others, will it endanger the security of face-washing payment?

　　Xinyang said that compared with fingerprints and irises, human face is a biological feature with weak privacy, so the threat to citizens’ privacy is particularly worthy of attention when paying for it. "No matter what kind of face recognition technology, it can be cracked. Whether it is worth cracking depends only on the cost and benefits of cracking. "

　　Xinyang said that it is precisely because of the lack of mobile phone that the use of face information becomes easier. In the era of bio-payment opened by face-brushing technology, how to launch a fierce battle of attack and defense against new technologies, minimize the loss of interests of businesses and consumers, and make the security line stronger and stronger will be the top priority for the future development of face-brushing payment.

　　An embarrassing fact is that due to the imperfection of equipment maturity, customer acceptance and payment security, face-brushing payment has not achieved large-scale popularization in China. At present, users prefer to use relatively safe mobile phones to pay. (Correspondent He Chun, reporter He Xinghui)

West Solicitation Order: If you are also a shopkeeper who takes Taobao as a career, and you feel that your products or business philosophy are different and willing to share with you, then you are the protagonist of our Taoxiu platform. If you are a buyer who is obsessed with Taobao, you will be flustered if you don’t do it for a day. You have countless experiences about online shopping and want to share them with your sisters and sisters. You are also welcome to come to our Taoxiu platform and show your different style … The exclusive hotlines for shopkeepers and buyers are: 028-86969298 and 86969527.

The first online shopping was fooled.

Perhaps most people will be hit by some "network and reality" more or less when they start to go to Taobao, and Zhang Peng is no exception. In 2005, Zhang Peng, who tried online shopping for the first time, still remembers the failure brought by a hairdo that practiced haircut.

Because I am a hairdresser by profession, I will inevitably add some hairdressing products from time to time. At that time, Zhang Peng began to try to buy some things he needed at work on Taobao. "I spent more than 200 yuan to buy a model head on Taobao to practice hair cutting. I saw that the owner wrote 100% real hair, and the price was cheaper than that in the store. I bought it without hesitation." But when things come to hand, Zhang Peng was a little scared. "When I got it, I found that it was not 100% real hair at all, more than half of it was real hair, and the rest were all artificial fiber fake hair to pretend."

The feeling of being fooled surged up. Zhang Peng immediately contacted the seller and asked for a return, but the other party gave a variety of excuses, and Zhang Penglai was required to bear the freight. Zhang Peng said angrily, "The first time I encountered such a thing, it was simply a blow, and I suddenly lost confidence in online shopping."

Online shopping again to regain confidence

After the first failure, Zhang Peng didn’t go online shopping for about a year. However, when I open my own shop, I am busy with work and many things, and I often can’t leave, so the purchase of hairdressing supplies consumed in the shop becomes a problem. It happened that Zhang Peng had a friend who was a Taobao maniac, and he often saw that he was very happy to buy on Taobao, and the things he basically bought were very good. Zhang Peng once again became interested in Taobao. "I saw that what others bought was good, so I thought, maybe I don’t have enough experience, and there are so many sellers, there will be conscientious sellers after all."

With the mentality of taking a chance, Zhang Peng started online shopping again. "Although I have rekindled my interest in Taobao, I am still very cautious. After all, the first lesson is too profound." This time, Zhang Peng no longer just looked at the price, pictures and descriptions of the goods blindly, but also talked with the shopkeeper about the products to judge the authenticity of the goods. Sure enough, the success rate of the things he bought later increased every time, and he regained his confidence in Taobao.

Accumulate experience to save time and money.

Shopping on Taobao is an absolute good way to save time and money, and it is the same for Zhang Peng. "I need this way of shopping, I can buy things without going out to the mall, and I can shop around." Zhang Peng mentioned that he was able to buy good things later, which had a lot to do with his accumulated Taobao shopping experience. It was worthwhile for him to be cautious from the original lessons.

Seeing that he has bought goods with guaranteed quality every time, Zhang Pengquan owes it to his own experience. Speaking of this, he is gushing. "Generally, when I look at a product, I will call the merchant. First, chat, because when chatting, you will feel that the shopkeeper is professional or unprofessional. Some shopkeepers don’t even know what brand of shampoo they sell. Do you dare to buy his goods? " Zhang Peng stressed, "In fact, I don’t like some big shops very much, because for me, what I need is speed and accuracy. Some big shops are customer service staff to answer your questions and submit orders." And Zhang Peng himself prefers some slightly smaller shops, which generally don’t press the goods, and the service attitude is good. The most important thing is that the owner communicates directly with himself, so that it is guaranteed to buy, and his heart is also more comfortable.

Go up and down for fun when you are free.

Not long ago, Zhang Peng opened a new studio of its own. Although it is not big, the business is good, and it is busy late almost every day. It can be said that work and life are full of flavor. "Work has never been idle, so Taobao has never stopped over the years. Once I have time, I will go to Taobao to pay attention to some new shops and find some good and cheap goods. " Zhang Peng said that although he doesn’t buy these goods every day, many customers feel good after using them every time, and he often buys them for customers to share with them.

Recently, Zhang Peng began to find some sellers in Chengdu on Taobao. "After seeing several shops in Chengdu, you can get the goods directly, which is absolutely guaranteed in quality, more convenient and more reassuring. After all, you can see the real thing yourself without express delivery, which also saves a sum of money." In addition to buying some hairdressing products, Zhang Peng also buys some daily necessities and clothes on Taobao. After seeing the real thing in the shopping mall, she will try the size before buying it on Taobao. He also feels that Taobao has brought convenience to him, and he has also found the pleasure of shopping on Taobao.

The huge capacity of the domestic demand market and the development of the Internet have enabled domestic consumers to gradually develop the habit of "Haitao" through cross-border e-commerce. Many heads of multinational companies said that with the improvement of China residents’ income level and the change of consumption concept, the potential of China market will only grow.

According to the statistics of E-commerce Research Center, in the first half of 2018, the scale of cross-border e-commerce import transactions in China reached 1.03 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 19.4%. By the end of June 2018, there were 75 million users who regularly conducted cross-border online shopping in China.

The development of cross-border e-commerce has also brought new business models and new operating systems for the operation, management and service of the entire logistics system. In this regard, international logistics companies feel particularly deeply. Chen Wenhong, managing director of FedEx China Marketing Department, said earlier that in recent years, the growth rate of China’s imports is much higher than that of its exports in both B2B (business-to-business) and B2C (business-to-customer) fields, making it the fastest growing market for cross-border e-commerce in the world.

A series of timely and effective reform measures have also promoted the growth of cross-border e-commerce. For example, the the State Council executive meeting held in November 2018 decided to continue and improve cross-border electronic commerce’s retail import policy and expand its scope of application, so as to stimulate consumption potential.

E-commerce platform seizes opportunities

With the increasingly important role of cross-border e-commerce in China’s foreign trade, major e-commerce companies also seize the opportunity to compete for layout. During the China International Import Expo held last year, Ali, Suning, JD.COM and other e-commerce platforms announced their import plans one after another, and took the opportunity to purchase goods and explore sources of goods. Among them, Suning has released a three-year global procurement plan of 10 billion euros, and will conduct large-scale procurement on a global scale. More than half of the procurement amount will be used for high-quality lifestyle products such as home appliances, mothers and babies, and supermarket beauty department stores.

At the same time, the vigorous development of cross-border e-commerce in China has also provided overseas businesses with new channels to enter the China market. Many internationally renowned brands regard cross-border e-commerce enterprises in China as their preferred trading partners in China. Experts said that China consumers’ import consumption has gradually become normal, and the imported consumer groups are younger, which provide a solid foundation and new opportunities for the faster development of cross-border e-commerce in China.

It is not only e-commerce companies that seize opportunities, but also local governments. In July 2018, the State Council agreed to establish cross-border electronic commerce Comprehensive Experimental Zone in 22 cities including Beijing, Hohhot and Shenyang, and actively deepen the "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services" reform in foreign trade. As of 2018, the number of cross-border e-commerce comprehensive experimental zones in China has reached 35. Relevant reform measures have been introduced in many pilot areas to realize the liberalization, facilitation and standardized development of cross-border electronic commerce.

Industry insiders predict that the central and western regions will become the development focus of cross-border e-commerce in the future, and the "Belt and Road" countries will be the focus of cross-border e-commerce development and open a new channel for supply-side reform.

Favorable policies encourage development

With the implementation of favorable policies related to cross-border e-commerce, the development of cross-border e-commerce in China is expected to enter a "golden age". The E-commerce Law, which has been implemented since New Year’s Day this year, clearly states that the state promotes the development of cross-border electronic commerce, establishes and improves the management systems of customs, taxation, entry-exit inspection and quarantine, payment and settlement, etc., which are adapted to the characteristics of cross-border electronic commerce, improves the facilitation level of all links in cross-border electronic commerce, and supports cross-border electronic commerce platform operators to provide cross-border electronic commerce with warehousing, logistics, customs declaration, inspection and other services.

At the executive meeting of the State Council held at the end of 2018, it was pointed out that on the basis of zero tariff within the limit for the goods in the cross-border e-commerce retail import list, and the import value-added tax and consumption tax are levied at 70% of the statutory taxable amount, the scope of goods enjoying preferential policies will be further expanded, and 63 tax items with large demand from the public will be added. In addition, the Ministry of Finance, the General Administration of Customs and the State Administration of Taxation jointly issued a notice saying that the tax policy for cross-border e-commerce retail imports will be adjusted, the upper limit of commodity quotas enjoying preferential tax policies will be raised, and the scope of the list will be expanded. The notice will be implemented as of January 1, 2019.

Experts pointed out that these measures will accelerate the development of new formats and new models such as cross-border e-commerce, help improve the level of openness, promote the steady growth of foreign trade import and export and new kinetic energy growth, and increase consumption and employment.

While encouraging and guiding development, we should also strengthen the supervision of cross-border e-commerce. According to the statistics of the State Administration of Market Supervision, in recent years, complaints and reports involving cross-border e-commerce have been on the rise, with milk powder, food, diapers, health care products and cosmetics having the highest number of complaints. How to make consumers feel at ease is a question that cross-border e-commerce must answer.

In this regard, the e-commerce law makes it clear that e-commerce operators engaged in cross-border electronic commerce should abide by the laws and administrative regulations on import and export supervision and management. The the State Council executive meeting also made it clear that the responsibilities of cross-border e-commerce enterprises, platforms, payment and logistics service providers will be strengthened in accordance with the principle of inclusive and prudent supervision, and the quality and safety monitoring and risk prevention and control of commodities will be strengthened.

Strive to basically cancel the national highway provincial toll stations before the end of the year-
Constructing and perfecting the charging system and speeding up the popularization and application of ETC

On May 10th, the State Council held a routine briefing on the State Council policy to interpret the implementation plan of deepening the reform of toll road system and canceling provincial toll stations on expressways. Dai Dongchang, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Transport, and Wu Dejin, Director of the Highway Bureau of the Ministry of Transport, introduced the cancellation of provincial toll stations on expressways.

Dai Dongchang said that the Ministry of Transport, on the basis of comprehensively summarizing the experience of pilot cancellation of provincial toll stations on expressways between Jiangsu and Shandong, Sichuan and Chongqing in 2018, has studied and put forward the Implementation Plan for Deepening the Reform of Toll Road System and Cancelling Provincial Toll Stations on Expressways, which has been submitted to the the State Council executive meeting for deliberation and adoption. The overall requirement of the "Proposal" is to basically cancel the provincial toll stations of national expressways within two years in accordance with deepening the reform of the toll road system, improving the efficiency of the comprehensive transportation network and reducing the logistics cost, and strive to basically cancel the provincial toll stations of national expressways before the end of 2019 to realize the fast toll collection without stopping.

Dai Dongchang said that in May last year, the the State Council executive meeting deployed the task of promoting the cancellation of provincial toll stations on expressways. The Ministry of Transport chose Jiangsu, Shandong, Sichuan, Chongqing and other provinces and cities to try first, and took the lead in canceling all 15 provincial toll stations on expressways at the end of 2018. According to statistics, under normal traffic conditions, the average time for buses to pass through provincial boundaries is reduced from 15 seconds to 2 seconds, and the time for trucks to pass through provincial boundaries is reduced from 29 seconds to 3 seconds.

"The cancellation of provincial toll stations is a complex systematic project, and it is the reconstruction of charging mode and charging technology. To complete this task, we need to do a good job in four aspects. " Dai Dongchang said: First, speed up the construction and improvement of the expressway toll collection system. It mainly includes the clearing and settlement at the central and local levels, the upgrading of the operation management system, the standardization construction and transformation of the hardware and software of toll stations, toll lanes and ETC portal systems, and the security reinforcement of the system network.

The second is to speed up the popularization and application of ETC electronic toll collection system. "The cancellation of provincial toll stations is not the cancellation of highway tolls, but the realization of fast charging without stopping through technical means. Vehicle identification, path recording and non-stop charging mainly rely on ETC vehicle-mounted devices, so it is very important to accelerate the popularization of ETC. " Dai Dongchang said that it will speed up the installation of ETC in-vehicle devices for existing vehicles free of charge, and by the end of 2019, the proportion of vehicles at the entrance of expressways using electronic non-stop express toll collection systems will reach over 90%; Promote the front installation of automobiles and upgrade and optimize ETC vehicle-mounted devices; Expand service functions and encourage the application of ETC in car-related places such as parking lots; Realize the sharing of motor vehicle registration information and facilitate the installation of ETC vehicle-mounted devices.

The third is to revise and improve laws and regulations. Dai Dongchang said that the cancellation of provincial toll stations on expressways is a change in the national expressway operation mode and toll technology route. It is urgent to revise and improve the Highway Law and the Regulations on the Management of Toll Roads, optimize the free passage of minibuses on major holidays and the "green passage" for the transportation of fresh agricultural products, and clean up and standardize the local toll reduction policies involving parking inspection and affecting fairness and efficiency. It is necessary to adjust the toll charging method of trucks, install ETC vehicle-mounted devices for trucks, and realize the fast passage of trucks without stopping.

The fourth is to promote the stock of government toll roads in bond swap. It is reported that in order to prevent and resolve the debt risk of toll roads, the Ministry of Transport will cooperate with relevant departments to increase the issuance of special bonds for toll roads, promote local government bonds to replace the existing debts of government toll roads that meet the policy requirements, optimize the debt structure, and prevent and resolve debt risks.

Dai Dongchang introduced the specific time schedule for the implementation of the task: various schemes and requirements, including technical standards, overall design scheme, engineering construction scheme, etc., will be issued before the end of May; Complete the construction of the project from June to October, including the renovation of toll lanes, the renovation of toll stations, and the upgrading of software and hardware; In November, the joint debugging test was started, so as to achieve the conditions for switching between the old and new systems before the end of December. On this basis, timely organize the implementation of system switching to ensure the completion of the goal of basically canceling the provincial toll stations of national expressways before the end of the year.

The first batch of "fruit powder" in Britain to buy iphone4S was shown to the media.

People queuing outside Japanese specialty stores

The scene outside the Japanese store was once chaotic.

Since the launch of the iphone, Apple has been sought after by users all over the world, and some fanatical Apple fans are even called "fruit powder". According to foreign media reports, Apple iphone4S has been sold in the United States, Canada, Australia, Britain, France, Germany and Japan on October 14th. Because this generation of iphone is regarded as the legacy of Steve Jobs, one of the founders of Apple, die-hard fans can be seen waiting in line outside the store all over the world. Many crazy "fruit powders" have even been waiting in line in the cold wind for 17 days.

In the Apple store in London, England, there are as many as 778 people queuing to buy the iphone4S. According to a well-known mobile phone website, 89% of the "fruit powder" who came to line up were men.

The first person who bought the iphone4S in London that day was a Danish man named Jonas, who was one of many foreign "fruit fans" who made a special trip to Britain to buy the phone. When interviewed by local media, Jonas couldn’t restrain his excitement. He said, "I’m so happy. I can’t wait to go home and experience this iphone. "

Due to the time difference, Australia became the first country in the world to sell the iphone4S. When the store opened at 8: 00 a.m. local time, the clerk in the specialty store saw hundreds of fans crowding the whole block.

In the Apple store on Fifth Avenue in New York, USA, a large number of fans have been waiting in line in the cold wind for a long time, and some even started to queue up 17 days ago. In Japan, the first country in Asia to sell, the queue in front of the Apple flagship store in Tokyo was endless, and the scene was once chaotic due to the failure of the shopping mall system.

It is not uncommon for many people to wait in line for many days for the products to be listed in today’s society. Whenever new video games, movies and even bestsellers such as Harry Potter are released, fans will set up tents in front of the store a few days in advance, just to "try early" at the first time. But in the field of science and technology, this kind of thing is like "rare", and this kind of grand occasion will only appear every year when Apple releases new products.

Iphone4S has no breakthrough in appearance compared with the previous mobile phone, but its new Siri voice assistant is undoubtedly the most concerned function. A "fruit fan" who bought the mobile phone showed this function to the media. He said to the mobile phone, "How far is it from Washington, DC?" The mobile phone screen directly displays the navigation map, marks the road to Washington, DC, and tells the user the distance. When asked "How can I go to Shanghai", the mobile phone replied: "Sorry, there is no map of China."

Interestingly, if you prepare some interesting questions, you will also get interesting answers. When asked "Would you like to marry me" on the mobile phone, the iphone4S gave the answer: "Let’s just be friends, ok?"

Most buyers are not buying Apple products for the first time. Many of them not only have iPhone, but also replace them with new ones every generation. It is reported that the first-day pre-order of iPhone4S has exceeded 1 million units, surpassing the 600,000 units of the last iPhone4. The three major American telecom companies also said that the iPhone4S for pre-order has been sold out, which shows that its charm has fascinated the world. Bloomberg predicts that the sales of iphone4S will reach 4 million units.

　　Cctv newsOn the 15th local time, the Lima Group Foreign Ministers’ Meeting was held in Santiago, Chile. On the eve of the Foreign Ministers’ Meeting, US Secretary of State Pompeo visited Chile, Paraguay, Peru and Colombia, the main members of Lima Group, in order to further coordinate their positions and win support for solving the Venezuelan issue. In this regard, some experts in Latin American countries believe that the United States and Lima Group have obvious differences on whether to intervene militarily in Venezuela. For a long time, the United States has wantonly criticized the foreign policies of Latin American governments, which shows that the American government lacks respect for other sovereign countries.

　　Experts believe that the intention of the United States to intervene and influence the foreign policies of Latin American governments is obvious. As a sovereign country, every Latin American country has the right and ability to independently formulate its foreign policy. Taking Latin America as its sphere of influence and promoting power politics are taking the old road of "Monroe Doctrine".

　　For the recent remarks that the US government has repeatedly mentioned that "Monroe Doctrine" has returned to Latin America, many Latin American scholars also said that in the current environment, Monroe Doctrine has no room for survival and development. On the other hand, in the context of globalization, Latin American governments will also formulate foreign policies that are most in line with their own interests according to their own development needs.

　　Members of the public: US sanctions aggravate economic difficulties

　　At the same time, the Venezuelan people believe that on the one hand, the United States claims to be a true friend of Latin American countries, on the other hand, it constantly increases sanctions against Venezuela, in fact, it implements "double standards" in its foreign policy, and in order to achieve its own political goals, it does not hesitate to aggravate Venezuela’s domestic economic difficulties.

　　Announcement No.3 in 2021 issued by the central bank in March this year shows that all institutions engaged in loan business should show the annualized interest rate to borrowers in an obvious way when marketing through websites, mobile applications, posters and other channels, and indicate it when signing the loan contract, or display information such as daily interest rate and monthly interest rate at the same time as needed, but it should not be more obvious than the annualized interest rate. The annualized loan interest rate can be calculated by compound interest or simple interest method. If the simple interest calculation method is adopted, it should be explained that it is simple interest.

　　Recently, the Beijing Youth Daily reporter found that many loan apps are still playing "cleverness" with consumers in displaying interest rates, and only show the daily interest rate or the lowest annualized interest rate with a small value. Only when consumers actually get the loan, do they find that the real interest rate is much higher than they thought.

　　survey

　　A few apps still violate the rules to promote customers at daily interest rates.

　　The announcement of the central bank has been released for nearly two months. However, the reporter of Beiqing Daily found that there are still some loan apps that use the daily interest rate to promote customers, and they have not marked the annualized interest rate at the same time.

　　For example, the application page of Vipshop’s "only cash withdrawal for flowers" only shows "the minimum daily interest fee of 13,60 seconds will arrive at the account quickly"; Mango TV’s "Mangli Good Loan" is known as "low interest, and the daily interest rate is as low as 0.02%"; On the "Financial Services" page of the "My Wallet" page, the car APP of Shouqi Car shows "the maximum is 300,000, and the minimum daily interest rate is 22,000". After clicking enter, you will see four loan products with annualized interest rate display.

　　In addition, some loan products have neither annual interest rate nor daily interest rate, only the maximum loan amount. For example, the activation page of JD.COM Gold Bar only shows the maximum loan amount of 200,000 yuan, and the words "50,000 yuan is free for 15 days", "fast loan", "installment repayment" and "low interest rate", and there is no specific interest rate description, which can only be seen after opening; After other apps enter, only the maximum amount that can be applied is displayed, and you need to register to see the details; Xiaomi’s satellite loan shows that "the maximum loan amount is 300,000 yuan", "the fastest one-minute loan and flexible repayment", and you need to log in to learn more information.

　　There are fewer loan products marked with simple interest.

　　According to the requirements of the central bank, all loan products should clearly indicate the annualized interest rate of loans; The annualized loan interest rate can be calculated by compound interest or simple interest method; If the simple interest calculation method is adopted, it should be explained that it is simple interest. The calculation method of compound interest is the internal rate of return method, that is, the annualized internal rate of return (IRR) calculated after considering compound interest according to the borrower’s loan principal, repayment amount per period, loan period and other factors. The annex to the central bank’s announcement called it "a fair way to calculate the annualized interest rate of loans".

　　After investigation, the reporter of Beiqing Daily found that at present, the loan products of most formal institutions have been marked with annualized interest rates according to the requirements of the central bank. Alipay borrowing, micro-loan, and US group living expenses also show the daily interest rate and annual interest rate, and some also list the conversion formulas of the two.

　　However, only a few products have "simple interest" next to their interest rates. For example, the homepage of Anyihua shows that "the annualized interest rate is at least 7.2% (simple interest) and risk pricing is implemented"; Today’s headline shows that "the annual interest rate (simple interest) is 10.80%-24%"; The "Goose Spending Money" docked by Tencent Video APP indicates that "the annual interest rate is as low as 7.20% (simple interest), calculated on a daily basis".

　　reveal a secret

　　The result of compound interest calculation for the same loan is higher than simple interest.

　　What effect will simple interest or compound interest have on the real interest rate of consumers? Two examples are provided in the announcement of the central bank, and the result of the same loan calculated by IRR method is higher than that of simple interest.

　　For example, a consumer finance company borrows a loan with a term of one year and monthly repayment, with a total of 12 installments and a principal of 100,000 yuan. According to the repayment plan, the borrower pays the 1000 yuan service fee in one lump sum in the current loan period, and repays 8833.3 yuan in equal amount every month from the end of the first month after the loan, in which the principal is 100,000/12 = 8333.3 yuan, and the installment fee (calculated by 0.5% of the initial loan principal) is 100,000× 0.5% = 500 yuan. The comprehensive annualized interest rate of the above loans calculated by simple interest is about 12.80%, and the comprehensive annualized interest rate calculated by IRR method is about 13.58%.

　　A person’s housing loan, with a term of 20 years and monthly repayment, has a total of 240 installments, with a principal of 1 million yuan, and is repaid by matching principal and interest. According to the repayment plan, from the end of the first month after the loan, the borrower will repay the principal and interest of 6599.6 yuan in equal amount every month. The annualized interest rate of the above loans calculated by simple interest is about 5%; The annualized interest rate calculated by IRR method is about 5.12%.

　　Liu Xinyu, a partner of Zhonglun Law Firm, believes that the central bank’s announcement clarified the calculation scope and method of comprehensive capital cost, solved the scope dispute of comprehensive capital cost in legal practice, and provided legal reference for the judicial department to handle loan dispute cases. At the same time, the formal introduction of IRR into the regulatory provisions will help protect consumers’ right to know and prevent consumers from being misled into applying for loans without knowing the true cost.

　　Don’t be tempted by the lowest interest rate. The actual approved interest rate is often much higher.

　　The reporter of Beiqing Daily found that many loan products are marked with "annualized interest rate from 7.2%". If you think that the interest rate you get is 7.2%, you will be greatly disappointed. Because lending institutions will evaluate customers’ credit and risk levels according to various factors, customers need to apply first, and only after the approval of the institutions can they know their final access quota and applicable interest rate. The actual loan interest rate approved by consumers will not be the same, and only the best customers can enjoy the lowest interest rate.

　　According to the investigation of the reporter of Beiqing Daily, the loan interest rates enjoyed by different customers on the same platform are very different, and the interest rates obtained by the same person on different platforms may be different. Few customers really enjoy the lowest interest rate, but many customers complain that the interest rate is too high.

　　For example, the same is Alipay. The daily interest rate of reader Miss Wang is 0.025% and the annual interest rate is 9.125%, while her friend Mr. Zhang is 0.04% and the annual interest rate is 14.6%. The annual interest rate of Miss Wang’s micro-loan is 10.95%, which is higher than that of Borrowing Bai, while Mr. Zhang’s micro-loan interest rate is 12.775%, which is lower than Borrowing Bai.

　　In another application, it is clearly marked that "the daily interest rate starts from 0.02% and the annualized interest rate starts from 7.20%". Miss Huang, who is heading for 7.20%, finally got the interest rate of 0.065% per day and 23.4% per year, which is more than three times that of 7.2%. Her friend Mr. Li was granted a daily interest rate of 0.097% and an annualized interest rate of 34.92%, which is 4.85 times that of 7.2%. They all want to know how many customers have actually obtained loans with an annual interest rate of 7.20%.

　　On the black cat complaint platform, there are more than 40,000 complaints about "annual interest rate", most of which are "the annual interest rate is found to be too high after borrowing". Some complainants reported that the annual interest rate of some lending platforms even exceeded 36%.

　　point out

　　Be wary of network platform inducing excessive borrowing.

　　At the end of last year, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission issued "Warning on Risk of Excessive Lending Induced by Online Platforms". China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission pointed out that in order to obtain a large number of customers, some online platforms over-market financial products such as loans or credit card overdrafts through various online consumption scenarios to induce over-consumption. China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission Consumer Protection Bureau reminds consumers that they should establish a rational consumption concept, use lending products rationally, choose formal institutions and channels to obtain financial services, and be alert to the hidden risks or traps behind excessive lending marketing.

　　According to the risk warning, some organizations or online platforms unilaterally emphasize the favorable conditions such as low daily interest rate, interest-free period and zero interest installment. However, the so-called "zero interest" does not mean zero cost, and there are often "service fees", "handling fees" and "overdue charges", and the actual comprehensive annualized interest rate of such products may be very high. Some marketing activities intentionally blur the actual cost of borrowing, which infringes on consumers’ right to know and easily leads to misunderstanding or recognition.

　　There are also some online platforms that claim that the loan procedures are simple, tempting consumers to click on it, and some institutions even lend excessively to minors, school students, low-income people, etc., and then carry out violent collection, pretend to be malicious collection by judicial organs, and collect for borrowers’ relatives and friends, causing a series of family and social problems.
