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.

Liu Qingfeng said that code ability is the key dimension to support the wisdom of cognitive big model, and multimodal ability is the only way to realize general artificial intelligence, which is also the long-term strategy of artificial intelligence technology in Iflytek. The big future of empowering individuals and industries by big model is coming.

Everyone can program and develop.

"Code data can enhance the’ wisdom’ of cognitive big model, and code ability is an important symbol of the intelligence of cognitive big model." Liu Qingfeng said that code ability is an effective means to build and link the digital world, which can greatly reduce the threshold and cost of starting a business in the digital economy.

This time, iFLYTEK Spark 2.0 upgraded the code ability in five dimensions, including code generation, code completion, code error correction, code interpretation, unit test generation, etc., so that ordinary people don’t need to be programming experts, but they can improve development efficiency and realize related entrepreneurship by exerting their imagination and based on their knowledge of application scenarios.

In the live demonstration, we used Python to draw a red heart line, draw a three-dimensional diagram of the saddle equation and set up a gradient color, and generate a "greedy snake" with code … "iFLYTEK Spark" was completed one by one, and even the need to use a small video as an expression pack could be quickly solved.

According to Liu Qingfeng, according to HumanEval, a public test set of code ability built by OpenAI, the effect of Spark V1.5 Python language is only 41 points, and V2.0 has reached 61 points, which is close to ChatGPT. According to the test set of real-life code usage scenarios constructed by the State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Intelligence, the dimension of code generation and completion has surpassed that of ChatGPT. According to the plan, iFLYTEK Spark Code will surpass ChatGPT in all dimensions on October 24th this year, and benchmark GPT-4 in the first half of next year.

Programming assistant iFlyCode is online

The upgrading of iFLYTEK Spark code capability not only enables ordinary people to program and develop, but also enables developers to improve efficiency. At the scene, the intelligent programming assistant iFlyCode1.0 was officially released. In Liu Cong, the function of "handwriting in the air" has been realized immediately without writing a single line iFlyCode after a few simple steps of Prompt. In the past, it took even experienced engineers half a day to complete it, but now it only takes a few minutes.

According to the statistics of more than 2,000 employees tested and used iFlyCode1.0 in iFLYTEK internal R&D efficiency platform within one month, in some typical scenarios, the code adoption rate reached 30%, the coding efficiency increased by 30%, and the comprehensive efficiency increased by 15%.

"Zero code" ability can also build a digital campus.

The upgrading of iFLYTEK Spark’s code ability, on the one hand, helps professional programmers to improve their efficiency, get rid of tedious routine work, and exert greater creative value, on the other hand, helps non-professional "Little White" enter the code world with zero threshold.

At the press conference, Iflytek released an industrial application case of code ability: teachers with "zero programming foundation" can also use the educational digital pedestal as a development assistant to meet the individual needs and customized development in the digital transformation of school management.

"Please help me build a school leaving management application. Parents can help students apply for leaving school. The application information needs to be approved by the class teacher." Only a simple instruction is needed to complete the application construction on the digital education base. After the voice input of parents’ leave, it becomes an automatic leave note, which is approved by the class teacher online. Teachers can see the list of students consulted today on the class board synchronously, and can also complete the statistics of school leavers under limited conditions according to their needs.

Liu Qingfeng said that the code capability is not only applied to the digital base of education in iFLYTEK, but also widely used in hospitals, universities, enterprises, governments and other different institutions, and it can be built quickly and presented quickly at low cost through iFlyCode.

Multi-modal capability applies multiple scenarios.

Code ability is the key dimension to support the wisdom of cognitive big model, and multimodal ability is the only way to realize general artificial intelligence.

On the same day, Liu Qingfeng released the multimodal ability of iFLYTEK Spark, and iFLYTEK Spark upgraded its image description, image question and answer, image recognition creation, text generation and virtual human synthesis, resulting in "iFLYTEK Zhizuo 2.0" which can create videos, "Spark Teacher’s Assistant" which can help teachers generate courseware with one click, "Spark Language Partner 2.0" which is oriented to students’ oral practice, and so on. "iFLYTEK Spark’s multimodal ability is a measurable model in the industry.

Liu Qingfeng said that at present, multimodal capability has been widely used in education, medical care, industry, automobiles, robots and other fields. It can obtain more and more data from the real world, and has learning, training and upgrading at the product terminal, including more flexible and autonomous industrial robots, better autonomous driving, and companion robots entering the home.

"Multimodal capability is also Iflytek’s established long-term strategy of artificial intelligence technology." In the last three years, Iflytek has won 17 international authoritative evaluation champions in the multimodal field. In early 2022, iFLYTEK released the "iFLYTEK Super Brain 2030 Plan" which includes core competencies such as multimodal perception, deep understanding, multidimensional expression and sports intelligence, so that robots with knowledge, good learning and evolution can enter every family. "With the opportunity of general artificial intelligence, we will strive to build everyone’s AI assistant and release everyone’s unlimited dreams."

Building a new ecology of general artificial intelligence

"The development of artificial intelligence in China is by no means the mission of a single enterprise or a single research institute, but the opportunity of the whole society. The development of ecology determines the prosperity of the industry." Liu Qingfeng said at the press conference that since the release of iFLYTEK Spark on May 6, the number of developers has increased by 282% year-on-year, and the number one in the developer industry distribution is "enterprise service", "indicating that the big model has really begun to be empowered to just need applications."

In addition to the original initiatives such as opening up capabilities, co-construction of industries, and dual-innovation empowerment, Iflytek announced at the press conference that it would further open up the assistant ecosystem, plug-in market and Spark Camp, and build a new ecosystem of general artificial intelligence with the developer team.

How to restore the poverty alleviation industry? What should I do if I return to poverty and become poor? —— Focus scanning of poverty alleviation under flood.

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, July 30th Question: How to restore the poverty alleviation industry? What should I do if I return to poverty and become poor? —— Focus scanning of poverty alleviation under flood.

Xinhua News Agency reporters Hou Xuejing, Wu Huiying and Wei Yukun

Since the flood season, many places in China have suffered from continuous heavy rainfall and severe floods, and the flood situation has continued to develop. In the year of decisive battle against poverty, has the basic livelihood of the affected people been settled? What measures have been introduced by various localities and departments to ensure the recovery and development of poverty alleviation industries? What should I do if I return to poverty due to disasters? In response to these hot issues of social concern, the reporter recently visited the disaster-stricken areas and relevant departments.

Is the basic livelihood of the affected people settled?

Since July, many places in China have suffered from continuous heavy rainfall and serious floods. As of the 28th, 54.811 million people in 27 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) such as Jiangxi, Anhui and Hubei were affected by floods, and 3.76 million people were resettled.

In the centralized resettlement site for the reconstruction of a primary school in Poyang County, Jiangxi Province, the affected people in Gui Hu Village near Wengui Road in Poyang County were resettled. A few days ago, the reporter walked into the resettlement site and saw that the classroom had been sterilized and equipped with mineral water, instant noodles, mats, moisture-proof mats, toiletries and medicines. The local cadres prepared lunch boxes for the resettlement people, including two meats, one vegetable and one soup.

Recently, the National Defense General and the Emergency Management Department held a meeting to ask for strengthening the security guard of Zhuangtai dam, ensuring the safety of housing, electricity, fire and gas at the resettlement sites, and doing a good job in epidemic prevention and control.

In many resettlement sites across the country, the basic livelihood of the affected people has been settled, and the two "dams" of flood control and epidemic prevention have been adhered to in many places.

Don’t miss a household, don’t leave a person-

In Anhui, from the banks of the Yangtze River to the mountainous areas in southern Anhui, and from Dabie Mountain to the areas along the Huaihe River, as of July 27th, 464 resettlement sites have been set up, with 39,633 people staying, and basic daily necessities such as food, clothing and shelter are guaranteed by the government to ensure that no one affected by the disaster is displaced.

Ensure that the epidemic will not be spread by gathering-

In Hubei, when setting up centralized resettlement sites in many places, schools and other places with good sanitary conditions should be selected as far as possible, and the information closed-loop management jointly constructed by community (village) cadres, disaster relief teams, roving medical teams and fever clinics of medical institutions should be established to strictly screen and quickly dispose of them.

Open a leisure room to provide psychological counseling-

In Jiangxi, in addition to ensuring basic living, medical emergency teams at resettlement sites also provide professional psychological counseling, organize calisthenics, dance square dances, etc., so as to relieve the anxiety and anxiety of the affected people as much as possible.

How to restore the poverty alleviation industry?

Jiulong town, yugan county, Jiangxi Province, is located at the end of Poyang Lake. Affected by the disaster, 12,000 mu of farmland was flooded, making it a severely affected area.

Wan Kuai, a 43-year-old villager from Min ‘an Village, Jiulong Town, raised funds to breed crayfish and plant rice after taking off his hat in 2018. "Crayfish could have been listed at the end of August, but all the water ran away." Wan Gaoxing said that he recently went to the fields every day to find ways to reduce losses. "After the water recedes, we must pay close attention to planting late rice and continue to develop aquaculture, and we must try our best to save ourselves."

Luo Guosheng, deputy director of the yugan county Poverty Alleviation Office, said that the flood disaster involved 269 poverty-stricken villages, and the poverty alleviation industry suffered losses of more than 20 million yuan.

"We have bought poverty alleviation industrial insurance for poor households since 2017. At present, we are counting the industrial disasters, actively docking underwriting institutions, and doing a good job in post-disaster claims." Luo Guosheng said that it is necessary to ensure that the people in the disaster areas can resume normal production and life as soon as possible.

According to the statistics of the Emergency Management Department, as of July 28th, the flood disaster has caused 5,283.3 thousand hectares of crops in 27 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) such as Jiangxi, Anhui and Hubei, with direct economic losses of 144.43 billion yuan.

Poverty alleviation industry is a solid foundation for stabilizing poverty alleviation. In order to help the poor people to resume the development of poverty alleviation industries as soon as possible, many departments have taken active actions to deploy.

The State Council Poverty Alleviation Office issued policies to help poor people to help themselves in production, replant crops in time, develop "short-term and quick" planting and breeding projects, help to carry out agricultural insurance claims, and minimize the impact of disasters on poor people’s production.

The Ministry of Finance and the Emergency Management Department have successively allocated 935 million yuan of central natural disaster relief funds to Anhui, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan and other provinces.

As of July 10th, China Development Bank has issued the first batch of emergency loans of 1.02 billion yuan to Xuancheng, Tongling, Chizhou, Anqing and Huangshan, which are severely affected by the disaster in Anhui, for emergency maintenance of infrastructure damaged by the disaster, relocation of the affected people and purchase and allocation of relief materials.

The National Defense Office and the Emergency Management Department, together with the State Grain and Material Reserve Bureau, have allocated 8 batches of central flood control materials to Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Anhui and other provinces to do everything possible to ensure the basic livelihood of the affected people.

What should I do if I return to poverty and become poor?

"yugan county has purchased the liability insurance for returning to poverty for all the people out of poverty, and the insurance for preventing poverty for the rural marginal population, and issued an early warning of the risk of returning to poverty due to disasters. The villages will summarize and report it to the townships for review, and the county poverty alleviation office will verify it. The insurance institutions will conduct surveys and claims, and make every effort to prevent poverty from returning to poverty due to disasters." Luo Guosheng said.

In the investigation, the reporter found that in the disaster dispatch, all localities focused on poor households and marginal households with weak ability to resist disasters and risks, and timely included assistance through monitoring and early warning to ensure that no one was missed and no one was left behind, and they were rescued at the first time.

In an effort to overcome the impact of geological disasters such as floods on poverty alleviation, the State Council Poverty Alleviation Office explicitly included timely monitoring and assistance for poverty caused by geological disasters caused by floods, and at the same time introduced a series of measures to prevent people from returning to poverty.

-Properly arrange new jobs to promote employment nearby and prevent disasters from causing the income of some poor people to drop sharply. The "returning" poor laborers will be included in the monitoring and assistance in a timely manner, and the poor laborers who go out to work will be well employed to prevent the "returning" from returning home due to disasters and epidemics. For the poor laborers who have "returned", actively help them solve their difficulties and encourage them to go out to work again to increase their income.

—— Timely monitoring and helping the poor products that are "difficult to sell", solidly promoting the action of poverty alleviation through consumption, and vigorously supporting the poor people to increase their income and get rid of poverty through developing industries.

-Give full play to the role of the monitoring and assistance mechanism to prevent poverty, timely record the eligible people who have returned to poverty due to disasters, epidemics, diseases and disabilities into the monitoring system, and implement the comprehensive security policy for the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled.

Many departments acted immediately after the disaster occurred, and introduced measures to focus on protecting special personnel and marginal population to ensure that there was no poverty caused by the disaster.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs requires all localities to pay relief funds in full and on time, so as to effectively guarantee the basic livelihood of people suffering from disasters and prevent them from returning to poverty due to disasters. In view of the special groups such as scattered support for poor people, scattered orphans, left-behind elderly people, left-behind children, children in distress and disabled people, all localities are required to take timely measures such as giving social assistance and referring them to relevant departments to solve their practical difficulties.

The National Defense Office and the Emergency Management Department have made it clear that they should provide assistance and support to poor areas, people suffering from disasters and severely affected households, and effectively prevent poverty from returning to poverty due to disasters.

According to the monitoring of the State Council Poverty Alleviation Office, the current disaster situation mainly leads to the damage of infrastructure such as houses, transportation and drinking water safety projects in poverty-stricken areas. In terms of poverty caused by geological disasters caused by floods, the affected provinces have taken timely measures to overcome the impact of the disaster on the production and life of poor people. At present, most provinces have not experienced poverty caused by disasters, and some provinces have been included in the assistance in time.

The relevant person in charge of the the State Council Poverty Alleviation Office said, comprehensively investigate the hidden dangers of infrastructure, speed up the maintenance and reconstruction of poverty alleviation projects such as damaged houses, roads and water conservancy projects, ensure the safety of housing and drinking water for poor people, and timely prevent and resolve the risk of returning to poverty due to geological disasters such as floods. For those who may return to poverty, it is found that one household monitors one household to help another. (Participating in writing: Li Jiaying, Cheng Shihua, Jiang Gang)

Guqin producer in Guangxi farmhouse: Go to Taiwan Province to bring his craft back to his hometown.

  BEIJING, May 16 (Xinhua) Title: Guqin producer in Guangxi farmhouse: Going to Taiwan Province to bring his craft back to his hometown.

  Author Liu Juncong Huang Lijie

  In a field manor in Liujiang District, Liuzhou City, Guangxi Province, firewood for cooking by the fireside is sizzling. At this time, Wei Xing held a brush and skillfully painted the guqin blank with "big paint" over and over again. This is a natural paint made from plants, and only the traditional guqin production will go through this important process step.

  Born in 1985, Wei Xing is a guqin producer who has been studying guqin production for more than three years. She studied guzheng in the Conservatory of Music at the university, and never imagined that she would get involved with the guqin one day and become the inheritor of the production skills of this ancient musical instrument.

  In the 2008 Olympic Games, an ethereal guqin piece "The Legacy of Taikoo" echoed over the "Bird’s Nest" Stadium, attracting the attention of the whole world, including Wei Xing, who just graduated from college. "At that time, I was fascinated by its unique timbre. Before the song of the Olympic Games was played, almost no one knew guqin, and many people would mistake guqin for guzheng, so it was very difficult to learn it. " Wei Xing said.

  As a last resort, Wei Xing at that time could only teach himself to play guqin with the help of relevant textbooks. With the rapid development of playing skills, Wei Xing became more and more fond of this ancient instrument. In 2015, while visiting relatives in Taiwan Province, Wei Xing met Lin Lizheng, a well-known local guqin producer. This coincidence made guqin completely change Wei Xing’s life.

  "At that time, I wanted to worship Master Lin as a teacher and learn the production process of Guqin. But master Lin watched a girl film of mine, but he didn’t agree anyway. In the end, it was a long time before the master reluctantly accepted me as an apprentice. After I really got started, I discovered that guqin production is not an easy task. " Wei Xing said.

  Wei Xing said that the production of guqin should strictly follow the tradition and the process is complicated. Just the process of painting surface polishing needs to be polished step by step and repeatedly by hand. "The key point of this process is not to use force, but to polish it gently. Brothers and sisters joked that they should’ not eat for three days’ before starting polishing, so the intensity is just right. " Weixing laughed.

  The tedious and boring production process, coupled with the master’s high-standard production requirements, made this girl who had left her hometown once think of giving up. However, an extremely harsh rebuke from the master made Wei Xing’s psychological defense completely collapse.

  "At that time, I immediately wanted to pack my bags and go home. But then I calmed down and thought about it carefully. If I don’t learn this skill, then this instrument is very likely to be lost in the future. " With the comfort of brothers and sisters, Wei Xing picked up the carving knife again. "Learning to make guqin is also tempering and practicing, which has taught me meditation." She said.

  Three years later, Wei Xing bid farewell to his master and classmates, and returned to his hometown successfully. Wei Xing, who had a "garden dream" since childhood, rented a farmhouse quadrangle in the suburbs of Liuzhou and engaged in guqin production in a beautiful and secluded environment every day. She said that it takes one to two years to make each guqin. At present, she has completed a number of customized guqin works, and the price ranges from 10,000 yuan.

  It is understood that the history of guqin can be traced back to the pre-Qin period, and it has a history of at least 3,000 years. Its timbre is low and its aftertaste is long. As a musical instrument with high cultural status in ancient China, Guqin has been a bridge for many scholars to exchange ideas since ancient times, and it is known as "scholars never withdraw their harps and instruments without reason".

  After years of silence, Guqin has once again attracted the attention and love of China people, and has gradually become one of the teaching subjects in major music colleges in recent two years. "The domestic environment is slowly getting better, and more and more people are beginning to learn about this ancient musical instrument from me. I am glad to see that it has not been forgotten." Wei Xing said.

  At present, Wei Xing has also opened guqin playing classes for adults and teenagers, so that more people can feel the charm of the voice of the ages. "Everyone likes it very much, and I will try my best to teach them playing skills. I don’t want this instrument to be lost in our generation." Wei Xing said. (End)

Constructing and perfecting the charging system and speeding up the popularization and application of ETC

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.

China’s Wisdom in the Development of World Socialism

  On the occasion of the Spring Festival, people in Tulou, Zhangzhou, Fujian, dressed up for a party and danced the China Dragon, wishing a better life. Bright pictures/vision china

  How to develop world socialism is a question that all socialist countries explore and think about, and it is also a question of global concern and discussion. In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s entering a new era "means that scientific socialism is full of vitality in China in the 21st century and holds high the great banner of Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the world", which is of great significance in the history of world socialist development. Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era embodies the China wisdom of the development of world socialism, which has important reference and enlightenment significance for the development of world socialism.

  1. Adhere to the people-centered value pursuit.

  For whom development is for and who it depends on is the first problem that must be clarified in the development of world socialism. Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era not only emphasizes that development is oriented to the interests of the people and aimed at improving their well-being, but also emphasizes that people are the main body of development, and development must rely on and trust people. Adhering to the people-centered value pursuit is of universal significance to the development of world socialism.

  Develop for the people. The Communist Party of China (CPC)’s initial intention and mission is to seek happiness for the people of China and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly stressed that people’s yearning for a better life is our goal. Building a well-off society in an all-round way is in line with the people’s yearning for a better life. The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China regards "the contradiction between the people’s growing need for a better life and the unbalanced development" as the main contradiction of our society in the new era, and puts forward that the party’s mass line should be implemented in all activities of governing the country, and the people’s yearning for a better life should be the goal of struggle, which embodies our party’s concept of putting people’s interests first and developing for the people. Taking the satisfaction of people’s interests and the acquisition of people’s happy life as the aim should also be the starting point of the development of world socialism.

  Development depends on the people. In the eyes of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people, the people are the creators of history and the masses are the real heroes. The enthusiasm, initiative and creativity of the people, and their practical exploration and wisdom are the source of strength for the development of Socialism with Chinese characteristics. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Every breakthrough and development in understanding and practice of reform and opening up, the emergence and development of every new thing in reform and opening up, and the creation and accumulation of experience in every aspect of reform and opening up all come from the practice and wisdom of hundreds of millions of people." This is a full affirmation of people’s dominant position in the process of reform and opening up. At the first session of the 13th National People’s Congress, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized: "We must always uphold the people’s position and the people’s dominant position." It can be said that the development of world socialism must rely on people’s strength, unite people’s wisdom, and leave people’s support and people’s practice, so it is difficult for world socialism to move forward.

  The fruits of development are shared by the people. Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s practice must be recognized by the people, so that the people can get tangible benefits and enhance their sense of acquisition and happiness. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader clearly pointed out: "Let the people live a good life is the starting point and the end result of all our work." The test of the effectiveness of all our work ultimately depends on whether the people have really benefited and whether the people’s lives have really improved. It is the destination of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s development and the goal of socialist development in the world to make a big cake and divide it well, so that people can share the fruits of development and realize the common prosperity of all people.

  2. Comprehensively deepen reform to gain development momentum.

  Where does the motive force of socialist development come from? This is an unavoidable problem in the development of world socialism. Deepening the reform in an all-round way, eliminating institutional and institutional obstacles, resolving social contradictions and realizing the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity are the fundamental driving force for Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s development, which has reference significance for the development of socialism in the world.

  Comprehensively deepen reform and eliminate institutional and institutional obstacles. With the development of the times and social changes, socialist countries will encounter institutional and institutional obstacles to a certain extent in the process of development, and some originally effective institutional mechanisms will become outdated and become the fetters of development. Only by comprehensively deepening the reform can we eliminate the shortcomings of the system and mechanism and gain new development momentum. Without reform and opening up, there would be no development and progress in China. Reform and opening up is the fundamental driving force for the development of China and Socialism with Chinese characteristics. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Reform and opening up is the source of vitality for the development and progress of contemporary China and an important magic weapon for the cause of the party and the people to catch up with the times in great strides." For the development of world socialism, the only way to eliminate the disadvantages of system and mechanism and gain new development momentum is to deepen reform.

  Comprehensively deepen reform and resolve social contradictions. Reform and opening up are developing in depth, and general contradictions and deep-seated contradictions are complicated, and problems in development and problems after development are intertwined. Only by comprehensively deepening the reform can we solve the outstanding contradictions and problems faced by China’s economic and social development, unite social consensus, stimulate social vitality and gather development forces. As General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said, "Contradictions in reform and opening up can only be solved by reform and opening up". There is no other way for world socialism to solve the contradictions and problems it faces in its development than to deepen reform.

  Deepen reform in an all-round way and realize the modernization of state governance. The national governance system and governance capacity are the concentrated expression of a country’s system implementation capacity, which provides sustained impetus for economic and social development. The overall goal of comprehensively deepening the reform established by the Third Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee is to improve and develop the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system, and promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, so as to enhance the efficiency and level of national governance and give China’s economic and social development new growth momentum. This provides a valuable reference for world socialism in the choice of reform breakthrough.

  3. Adhere to the new development concept to achieve high-quality development.

  What kind of development concept to promote better economic and social development is an era topic that world socialism must face directly. The development concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing not only reflects the staged characteristics of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s development, but also reflects the inherent laws of economic and social development. The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China regards adhering to the new development concept as one of the basic strategies for adhering to and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, which shows the importance of the new development concept.

  Adhere to the new development concept to change the development mode. Development concept relates to development mode. Since the reform and opening up, the extensive growth mode has supported the miracle of China’s rapid economic growth. While consuming huge resources, it has caused problems such as tight resource constraints, serious environmental pollution and ecosystem degradation. Nowadays, the traditional mode of development is unsustainable, and the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation in the world is making many breakthroughs. Only by promoting high-quality development and forming a high-quality, efficient and diversified supply system can we achieve a balance between supply and demand at a new level and achieve sustained and healthy economic development. Changing the development mode under the guidance of the new development concept is an inevitable requirement to maintain sustained and healthy economic development, to adapt to the changes in major social contradictions in China, to build a well-off society in an all-round way and to build a socialist modern country in an all-round way, and to follow the economic laws. Under the situation that socialist countries in the world are generally facing the transformation of development mode, the new development concept has leading significance.

  Adhere to the new development concept to optimize the economic structure. Economic structure is closely related to the concept of development. Innovation and development are conducive to promoting the optimization and upgrading of the economic structure. The process of innovation is the process of optimizing and upgrading the economic structure, and the economic structure is optimized by breaking through the core key technologies and upgrading the scientific and technological content of economic development. Coordinated development includes the coordination between industries, which can promote the coordination of industries and optimize the economic structure through the upgrading of manufacturing industry, the development of strategic new industries and modern service industries. Green development is a necessary condition for sustainable development and an important embodiment of people’s yearning for a better life. Only by adhering to green development can we promote the formation of a new pattern of modernization with harmonious development between man and nature. Open development conforms to the trend that China’s economy is deeply integrated into the world economy, which helps to make better use of two markets and two resources and raise China’s open economy to a new level. Optimizing China’s economic structure needs the support of new development concepts, which is also of exemplary significance to world socialism.

  Adhere to the new development concept to transform the growth momentum. China’s economic development has entered a new normal. From the appearance, it is a shift in the speed of economic growth, but in essence it is a transformation of development momentum. According to the law of economic development, we must rely more on scientific and technological progress and innovation to promote economic development and realize the transformation from factor-driven, investment-driven to innovation-driven in the case of slowing investment growth and declining efficiency. The new development concept emphasizes that innovation is the first driving force to lead development, and greater development space can be obtained through innovation; Coordinated development emphasizes the harmonious and orderly allocation of all production factors, which is an indispensable condition for promoting high-quality development; Open development is a development concept, and it is also the driving force to promote the high-quality development of China’s economy. It is also applicable to world socialism to gain growth momentum by changing the development concept.

  4. Always maintain the development of socialism.

  World socialism should not only learn from the outstanding achievements of human civilization, but also always maintain its own development strength. Choosing the development path based on the national conditions, strengthening Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s road confidence, theoretical confidence, institutional confidence and cultural confidence, and upholding the Party’s leadership over all work are the successful experiences of Socialism with Chinese characteristics in maintaining its strength, which has important reference value for world socialism.

  Maintain development strength based on national conditions. The key to Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s success lies in adhering to the principle of independence, neither rejecting or rejecting western experience, nor blindly advocating and copying western models, but exploring based on the national conditions and embarking on a development path suitable for China’s national conditions. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "China, based on its own national conditions and practice, draws wisdom from Chinese civilization, draws on the strengths of various schools in the East and the West, sticks to it but is not rigid, draws lessons from it but does not copy it, and has formed its own development path through continuous exploration." As far as world socialism is concerned, choosing the development path independently based on the national conditions provides a new path guide for those countries and nations that want to speed up their development and maintain their independence.

  Be firm and confident to maintain development strength. With the rapid development of China, the advantages of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s road, theory, system and culture are gradually emerging, which has won universal praise and recognition from the international community. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out in his important speech at the celebration of the 95th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China (CPC) that the whole Party should be firm in road confidence, theoretical confidence, institutional confidence and cultural confidence. In today’s world, if any political party, country or nation can be confident, the Communist Party of China (CPC), People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Chinese nation have the most reasons to be confident. It is this self-confidence that gives the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China the confidence to persist in and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics without hesitation or slack. Only by establishing full self-confidence can world socialism maintain its development strength.

  Adhere to the overall leadership of the party to maintain the development strength. The most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership, the greatest advantage of Socialism with Chinese characteristics system is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership, and the Party is the highest political leadership. It is by upholding and strengthening the Party’s overall leadership that Socialism with Chinese characteristics kept his certainty and sobriety in choosing the road and avoided directional and subversive mistakes. Upholding the Party’s leadership over all work is one of the basic strategies for upholding and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and it also provides an important reference for the development of world socialism.

  Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era has opened up a new realm for Socialism with Chinese characteristics, which not only promoted the development of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s theory and practice, but also showed the bright future of world socialism, expanded the development space of world socialism and contributed China’s wisdom and China’s plan to the development of world socialism.

Apple's mobile phone iphone4S sells "fruit powder" globally. Waiting in line for 17 days is only for early adopters.
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.

700,000 people were affected by illegal discharge of polluted groundwater by Italian laboratories.

  The court in teramo, located in central Italy, recently announced that after investigation, it was confirmed that 10 senior executives of the National Nuclear Physics Laboratory in Gransaso, Italy, were suspected of illegally storing and handling dangerous goods, and their dereliction of duty caused the groundwater in teramo to face irreversible serious pollution risks.

  In August 2016, Gransasso Laboratory discharged 50 liters of toxic chemical solvent dichloromethane into groundwater, which caused groundwater pollution in 32 cities in Telamo province and affected the water safety of 700,000 people. After the incident, the Italian government invested 80 million euros to improve the polluted water resources.

  Gran Sasso National Laboratory is located in the deep mountain 120km away from Rome, the capital of Italy, and it is one of the four national laboratories under the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics. This laboratory is one of the most important physical research centers in Italy and the world.

  Italy prohibits the storage of dangerous substances within 200 meters from groundwater and drinking water sources, but the laboratory bluntly said that its research is not within the scope of the law. At present, the Italian government has ordered the laboratory to carefully review its research activities and norms to reduce the risk of water pollution.

  Groundwater pollution has always been a big problem for the Italian government. In the report on the collection and analysis of geological water samples recently released by the European Union Environment Agency, the groundwater source pollution in Italy is serious, and the excellent groundwater source is only 58%, far below the average level of 74% in the EU member States.

  Italian media pointed out that the water pollution incident and its investigation process exposed some structural problems in this field in Italy, such as lax management and lack of emergency plans. While promoting the smooth development of scientific research, it is an important task to fulfill public responsibilities such as ensuring people’s health and social security.

  The continuous fermentation of groundwater pollution has caused Italian people to question and worry about the existence of greater security risks in this laboratory; Environmentalists complained bitterly about the pollution incident and worried that it would have a greater impact on the environment in the future. "It’s not that we don’t support scientific research, but we can’t sacrifice people’s health, and relevant institutions must be responsible for all research activities."

  The investigation and trial surrounding the pollution incident put Gran Sasso National Laboratory in a dilemma. At present, 1100 scientists from 29 countries are engaged in major scientific research and experimental activities such as nuclear physics and particle physics in this laboratory. After the incident, in addition to the challenge of reputation and trust, a large number of scientific research in the laboratory was forced to be interrupted or even suspended, and the investment in scientific research funds will be blocked. According to the latest article in Science magazine, this lawsuit may affect the future research work of the laboratory and have a negative impact on research in related fields.

  Italy’s Ansa commented that the accident should not evolve in the extreme direction of "anti-science", but the national scientific research institutions, environmental protection departments and judicial institutions should shoulder the responsibility together and make promises and guarantees to the people.

Hosts Hantao Wang and Zifeng Zhang send birthday wishes to the children.

    Recently, a special birthday party was being held in a small courtyard in Dajiangwa Village, Nanfaxin Town, Shunyi District, Beijing. This is Beijing Guangai School, which is the home of more than 100 street children in Beijing. All the staff of the film channel "Love Movies" column should send a special birthday wish to these street children and have a warm and meaningful collective birthday with them.

    There were seven birthday girls at the birthday party in March. Driven by Hantao Wang and Li Boer, the hosts of "Love Movies", the atmosphere at the scene was particularly active. Students enthusiastically went on stage to give performances to the birthday girl, singing, dancing, playing nunchakus and playing the piano … … In the special session of "Love to Guess Movies", as soon as Hantao Wang and Li Boer threw out questions, they were actively answered by the students off the field. In the midst of laughter, the birthday party welcomed three special guests, who painted clown makeup and pushed a huge birthday cake to the scene, pushing the birthday party to a climax.

    When the three guests took off their makeup and stood on the stage, the students realized that it was the famous actors Wang Baoqiang, Li Mincheng and Zifeng Zhang specially invited by the column of Love Movies to share the joy of their birthdays with you. Three guests presented birthday presents to the birthday stars on behalf of the column of Love Movies. When one of the children received a DV from Love Movie to Guang ‘ai School, tears filled her eyes with excitement. She said that she had always wanted a DV, not for herself, but to leave wonderful fragments of her life for her dear brothers and sisters at school. She got her wish on this birthday.

    At the end of the birthday party, Wang Baoqiang, Li Mincheng, Zifeng Zhang and the birthday girls lit birthday candles and sang birthday songs together, and together with the column group Love Movies, they took all the students from Guangai School to china national film museum to watch a 3D movie. Shi Qinghua, president of Guang ‘ai School, told us that the youngest children here are only 5 years old and the oldest are over 20 years old. They are homeless and homeless children, and some of them are disabled. Every month, the school will have a collective birthday for the children who have birthdays that month, but this birthday party is especially wonderful because of Love Movie. I hope there will be more such opportunities for children to get in close contact with the society, which will have a positive impact on their growth.

    When saying goodbye to his classmates, a boy in a wheelchair caught the special attention of the column of Love Movies. He sang "Father" at his birthday party and has been sitting quietly in the corner ever since. He said that he had been in this school for four years, and he didn’t know where he came from, and he had no news from his parents at all, but he had a dream and wanted to write a book of his own to share his growing feelings and worries with everyone. I sincerely hope that his wish will come true at an early date.

    The movie channel "Love Movie" always pays attention to people in need in society, hoping to take the initiative to assume social responsibilities and do its best to send warmth and blessings to them. At the same time, I also hope that through the recording of the special public welfare program "Love Movies", more people can join the ranks of public welfare actions, lend a helping hand, and help these homeless children who need care and care, as well as more vulnerable groups in society who need help.
