A new way of rural revitalization in the first place of precision poverty alleviation

  A new way of rural revitalization in the first place of precision poverty alleviation

  — — Insight into the rural development prospect from Shibadong Village

  Guangming daily research group

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that after the victory in tackling poverty, it is necessary to comprehensively promote rural revitalization, which is a historic shift in the focus of the work concerning agriculture, rural areas and farmers. To promote rural revitalization in an all-round way, we must accelerate the development of rural industries, strengthen the construction of socialist spiritual civilization, strengthen the construction of rural ecological civilization, deepen rural reform, implement rural construction actions, promote the integration of urban and rural development, and strengthen and improve rural governance.

  As the pioneer of accurate poverty alleviation, Shibadong Village in Shuanglong Town (formerly Paibi Township) of Huayuan County, Hunan Province has effectively connected from deep poverty to rural revitalization, and has made a historical leap and profound change from closed, conservative and backward to civilized, open and confident, creating a miracle in the history of Miao Village in western Hunan for thousands of years. In the stage of tackling poverty, Shibadong village has embarked on a road of poverty alleviation that can be replicated and promoted; From a new starting point, Shibadong Village further highlights the industrial development, the combination of culture and tourism, land improvement, rural governance and the mobilization of the mass experience model, actively explores and tries first, and strives to find a new way for rural revitalization.

  The mass mobilization mode of "typical leading and positive motivation"

  Entering a new stage of rural revitalization, Shibadong Village has summed up valuable experience in the past, further adhered to the masses as the main body in the reform and development, stimulated endogenous motivation, fully mobilized the enthusiasm, initiative and creativity of the masses, and supported rural revitalization with the endogenous motivation of the people.

  The research team learned in Shibadong Village that an effective local practice is to combine typical guidance with positive motivation.

  The first is to dig out advanced models of starting a business and getting rich among the masses.Online, villagers can learn about the changes in the village and learn about the typical local figures and advanced deeds through the live broadcast of Eighteen Holes Today every day. "Eighteen Holes Today" has broadcast live the touching stories of a number of typical figures, such as Long Jian, Long Jinli and Shi Yanqin, guiding all villagers with the things around them, and creating a strong atmosphere of being positive and striving to become a typical entrepreneur. In recent years, 32 households have been promoted by the media.

  Second, positive incentives are provided through star-rated management of villagers’ ideology and morality.The villagers told the research team that the village regularly organized all villagers’ moral appraisal meetings, and even the 16-year-old villagers participated. According to the survey, the evaluation is based on the village group, and each household is rated in six aspects, such as law-abiding, social morality, self-reliance and civilized fashion. Each household is given an average score according to the number of family members, and the score results are announced on the spot and posted on the list. According to the score results, it is graded, and more than 90 points are posted with a "five-star" sign at the door. The masses scored "fighting for face" to grab the advanced, and their mental outlook has been greatly improved. Shi Jintong, secretary of the village branch, took the lead in giving up his responsibility field for free to help the construction of the village. Up to now, the village has invested more than 5,300 workers voluntarily, and voluntarily ceded and exchanged 136 mu of contracted land to support public welfare undertakings and infrastructure construction.

  It is understood that on November 3 every year, Shibadong Village will hold a commemorative party for the first day of precision poverty alleviation and launch a "big evaluation and small award" activity. At the party, honorary certificates will be awarded to outstanding villagers such as "the most beautiful 18-hole man", "the most beautiful cleaner", "excellent party member", "the cleanest household" and "the most beautiful farmer" who have been selected through mass sea selection, group selection and online selection, and each person will be awarded a reward ranging from 300 to 1000 yuan.

  Through the combination of typical guidance and positive encouragement, the masses have improved their sense of acquisition and happiness, and actively participated in the cause of rural revitalization. This is conducive to the transformation of villagers from "I want to be rich" to "I want to be rich" and "I can be rich".

  The industrial development model of "seeking truth from facts and adapting to local conditions"

  Mobilizing the masses is the foundation of rural revitalization, and developing industry is the key to rural revitalization.

  During the on-the-spot investigation, the research team felt that Shibadong Village adapted to local conditions, insisted on vigorously developing rural industries, and industries such as characteristic planting, resource development and rural tourism flourished, and embarked on a road of sustainable development with production development, affluent life and good ecology.

  Characteristic breeding industry is booming.According to local cadres, in view of the problem of "more people and less land", the village explored and implemented the "enclave economy" model in accordance with the idea of "jumping out of 18 holes and developing 18-hole industries". Miaohanzi Fruit Company in Shibadong Village, Huayuan County was established in the village, and 1,000 mu of land was transferred in the county agricultural park to build a boutique kiwifruit base through joint-stock cooperation. It was certified as an organic product and awarded as an "export demonstration base", and some villagers received dividends. The breeding industry is mainly based on native chickens and bees. Long Xianlan, a young man with "three noes" in the past, has become a "king of beekeeping". He not only keeps more than 400 boxes of bees himself, but also invites 18 villagers to form cooperatives to drive 118 households with 562 people to keep bees together, with an annual income of more than 1.5 million yuan.

  Resource-based industries are in the ascendant.The intangible cultural heritage resources are mainly Miao Xiu. The village has set up cooperatives around Miao Xiu industry, signed cooperation agreements with enterprises such as CRRC Zhuzhou Machinery Co., Ltd. and local universities, innovated creative design, expanded Miao Xiu’s order business, and let 54 left-behind women find jobs at their doorstep, with an annual output value of more than 400,000 yuan in recent two years. The material resources are mainly the development of 18-hole mineral water. Enterprises have been introduced into the village to invest in Shanquan Waterworks, and annual dividends are paid to the village collectives in the form of "50+1". In the past two years, the annual dividends of the village collectives are 600,000 yuan. The benchmarking industry in Shibadong Village comes from the development of red resources. Around the party spirit education base, the youth research base and the patriotism education demonstration base, the village strives to build "three teams" of red tour guides, party spirit education teachers and red scarf lecturers, and create excellent red education classes, party spirit education classes and patriotism education classes. In 2021, it received more than 3,500 batches of study groups with more than 140,000 person-times. The 18-hole party history learning and education experience is listed in News Network and Briefing on Party History Learning and Education.

  Eco-tourism industry is in full swing.Shibadong Village is one of the "Red Eight Scenery" in Xiaoxiang, Hunan Province. It was selected as one of the "100 Excellent Red Tourism Routes in the Centennial of the Founding of the Party" and "Beautiful Leisure Village in China" and was awarded the National 5A Scenic Spot. There are mountain canyons, jungle caves, traditional Miao villages, Miao songs and dances and other tourism resources in the village, which are hot spots for research and rural tourism. The village has built 18-hole tourist center, exhibition hall for poverty alleviation, e-commerce service station, specialty product store, financial service station, hiking trail, parking lot, signs and other tourism service facilities. There are 234 people in the village who participate in tourism services and surrounding industries, and there are more than 20 farmhouses and homestays, each with an average annual income of more than 200,000 yuan. In the past two years, the village has received 400,000 tourists a year, and achieved a tourism income of more than 10 million yuan.

  The labor export industry continued to consolidate.The village has carried out vocational skills training for spare laborers, actively docked with the state human resources and social departments, opened an "18-hole" special train, and actively transported laborers to coastal developed areas such as Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, etc. In the past two years, 183 laborers in the village have been transferred to employment, increasing their income by more than 6 million yuan.

  The rural construction mode of "keeping homesickness, keeping integrity and innovating"

  Arriving at Lizizhai, an upgraded 18-hole village, tourists are everywhere, and the ancient village is full of vitality.

  It is understood that Shibadong Village has established the general principle of "harmony between man and nature, harmony between construction and original ecology, and perfect combination of architecture and national characteristics" in accordance with the requirements of "no bonsai planting, no landscape setting" and "no specialization and no change", and has persisted in improving the infrastructure with the concept of "retaining homesickness", "repairing the old as before" and "building the countryside more like the countryside" At the same time, combined with the "Huayuan Garden Change Campaign", the "three treatments, three kinds and one innovation" were implemented in the whole village (toilet treatment, garbage treatment and sewage treatment; Planting trees, flowers and vegetables; Create a beautiful farmhouse).

A new way of rural revitalization in the first place of precision poverty alleviation

  The research team saw that the front and back of the village houses were paved with green slates, and the transformation of the rural power grid was fully completed. Every household was connected with tap water, and every household used safe electricity. Those who were willing installed wireless networks. Up to now, 16.58 kilometers of village roads have been built in Shibadong Village, and all 225 houses in the village have been transformed and "toilet revolution", making the original houses more comfortable, livable and beautiful. With the combination of beautiful countryside and homesickness, Shibadong Village has been awarded as "Beautiful Leisure Village in China" and "the first batch of traditional village demonstration villages in China". The old people in the village also sang a happy life into Miao songs: "Miao people live in a gold and silver nest, and there are many resources in green waters and green mountains; Water, electricity and access, all live a good life. "

  Shibadong Village has firmly established its cultural self-confidence in innovation, carried out great innovation in the new era in the inheritance of local civilization, and realized transformation and development on the basis of guarding the imprint of national culture.

  Shibadong Village has also permeated the whole process of rural construction with the local traditions of respecting nature, conforming to nature and caring for nature, which has made the Miao village houses antique, the village appearance completely new, and fulfilled the villagers’ "dream of happiness and beauty". Greening, hardening, lighting, beautification and other construction and transformation have injected modern civilization elements into ancient villages. The imported art is full of vitality, and the local cultural skills are thick inside. Shibadong Village promotes the integration of cultural tourism and agricultural tourism, so that the thick culture can empower new industries, do a good job in the protection and development of Miao Miao Village in Miao Mountain, excavate and inherit the Miao Miao Song and Miao Dance Festival, and promote the creativity of Miao Xiu Miao Dyed Miao Food.

  Highlight the true colors, and the local culture awakens the original power of the countryside; Art empowerment has activated the power of characteristic rural construction. The practical exploration on the road of rural revitalization makes the rural natural scenery, folk customs and ethnic traditions interact harmoniously.

  Rural social model of "mutual assistance, five prosperity and common prosperity"

  The rural grass-roots governance model of "mutual assistance and five prosperity" is a new contribution to the exploration of rural revitalization in Shibadong Village.

  "Mutual Assistance and Five Prosperities" is a new grass-roots governance model of "Village Party Branch-Mutual Aid Group-Farmers" formed by summarizing and improving in practice in the 18-hole village. Specifically, it is the "1553" working mechanism, that is, a party member contacted five households to form a mutual aid group, from "learning mutual aid to promote ideas, producing mutual aid to promote industries, rural customs to promote civilization, neighborhood mutual aid to promote harmony, and green mutual aid to promote homes" A total of 41 mutual aid groups have been set up in the whole village, realizing the full coverage of party member and the masses, solving many things that the government can’t "guarantee", the family can’t "do" and the individual can’t "do", forming a joint force of "1+1 > 2". "Mutual assistance and five prosperity" was formed in tackling poverty and developed in rural revitalization, and achieved remarkable results in rural harmony and common prosperity.

  Mutual assistance focuses on the revitalization of rural industries.For the industrial development of Shibadong Village, Long Dongjie, an old party member, pondered over persuading young people who went out to work to return to their hometowns to start businesses and provide support for the local industrial development. She went door-to-door to do ideological work, and repeatedly persuaded young people who went out to work to return to the 18 holes. The industry in the village was developed, the elderly and children were taken care of, and the life of the villagers became more and more prosperous. Villagers who start businesses first teach experience and technology, help other villagers start businesses, or directly attract surrounding villagers to become shareholders, thus realizing the full coverage of the whole village’s industries.

  Mutual assistance is embodied in the road of running towards a well-off society together.Yang Chengjia, a villager, accidentally caught fire, his house burned down, and his belongings were gone. Yang Cheng suddenly got into trouble and sat on the charred ruins and wept bitterly. Yang Wuyu, an old branch secretary, is the leader of Yang Cheng’s mutual aid group. He sees it in his eyes and hurts in his heart. Yang Wuyu called on the villagers to help each other at the theme party day activities. Under his leadership, every household in the village donated money, with the help of the government, and donated more than two or three thousand yuan. Yang Cheng soon built the new house. The problem of villagers leaving their orders has been greatly changed under the mutual aid mode. Most single villagers have successfully left their orders, and "Meet 18 holes and run towards a well-off society hand in hand" has also become a brand program holding hands with Hunan Satellite TV.

  Mutual assistance is implemented in the evaluation system.On the theme party day every month, everyone should comment on the mutual assistance activities of each group in that month, and the evaluation results will serve as an important basis for selection and commendation, promotion of joining the party, selection of reserve cadres, and distribution of collective economic benefits. Relying on the village-level collective economy, the village also established the "Mutual Assistance and Five Prosperities" bank in the 18-hole village. In their daily lives, villagers "exchange points with actions and goods with points". Everyone can exchange points coupons for daily necessities such as oil, salt, rice and flour at the "Huzhu Wuxing" bank and enjoy tangible benefits.

  The goal of "mutual assistance and five prosperity" is common prosperity. Taking the "mutual assistance and five prosperity" group established by party member and the masses as the basic unit, taking the evaluation of central households (group leaders) in party member and the incentives for exchanging points in kind as the starting point, we will help each other in five aspects: study, production, rural customs, neighborhood and green, and combine individual prosperity with collective prosperity to make the whole village prosperous in life, industry and rural customs.

  Grass-roots governance model of "branch leading, party member driving"

  On the road to rural revitalization, Shibadong Village insists on strengthening the construction of grass-roots organizations, giving play to the role of "backbone" and "fixed star" of party organizations, exploring and promoting grass-roots governance mode according to the structure of "leading by branches and driving by party member", giving full play to the role of grass-roots party organizations as fighting bastions and the vanguard and exemplary role of party member, forming a vivid pattern of mutual help and mutual progress between the party and the masses.

  Select the best and strengthen the branch team.Through the system of "double narration and double evaluation", we should pay attention to the selection of candidates who are political, literate, capable and prestigious; Recruit and train outstanding university student village officials to be responsible for village-level office and administrative matters, and improve the efficiency of village affairs; Actively develop party member, from 16 in 2013 to 36 now, including 11 young party member under the age of 35 and 15 party member with college degree or above, so as to realize the younger age structure of branches. A rural revitalization leading group with knowledge of rural areas, grounding gas, strong skills and vitality has significantly enhanced the combat effectiveness and cohesion of village branches.

  Focus on building the "five modernizations" branch.According to the standardization of branch establishment, the branch is divided into four party groups, which are responsible for public services, rural tourism, agricultural production and so on. Highlight the refinement of management services, and set up eight types of service posts for party member, such as publicity and education, civilized persuasion and tourism information, to serve the masses in an all-round way; Promote the systematization of work system, and establish a scientific and complete work system around six aspects: organizational construction, village management, villagers’ deliberation and village supervision; Realize the normalization of organizational life, standardize and implement the basic systems such as "three meetings and one lesson", organizing life meetings and democratic appraisal of party member; Focus on the standardization of position construction, build a village-level service platform, set up a convenience service center, party member activity room, etc., and implement the online service platform of "Xiangxi e-Road Link". Villagers can’t go out of the village and handle various village-level affairs in various forms, and the satisfaction rate of the masses to the two committees of the village branch has increased from 68% to over 98%. Through the "five modernizations" construction, the Party branch will be truly built into a strong fighting fortress for rural revitalization.

  Highlight the leading role of the Party branch.In Shibadong Village, a party group was established on the farmer cooperative organization, industrial chain and village grid, and four service party groups were set up, namely, industrial prosperity, rural tourism, public service and sunset red. Members of the branch committee took the initiative to take the lead as leaders of new economic organizations such as Village Miao Xiu Company and Kiwi Cooperative. Send branch members to economic organizations such as Shibadong Mountain Spring Water Co., Ltd. and Huayuan Eighteen Cave Tourism Development Co., Ltd. as party building instructors to guide the important decision-making of the company. The tentacles of the party organization have achieved full coverage in the fields of economic development, public welfare undertakings, public security and stability in the 18-hole village, which has effectively led the development of the village and really played a leading role: there is no money to make up for the road construction in the village, and party member Long Taijin took the initiative to say "Dig from my home first"; The village needs land to build a bacon workshop, and Shi Shunlian, the old branch secretary, voluntarily changed his contracted land to the villagers who occupied the land.

  After completing the task of getting rid of poverty as scheduled, Shibadong village has comprehensively marked the strategy of rural revitalization, and achieved certain results in "prosperous industry, ecologically livable, civilized rural customs, effective governance and affluent life", and its series of fruitful practices have been promoted in Xiangxi and even Hunan Province.

Investigation on the loan suspension storm: the owner’s suspension of supply is a helpless move, and the guarantee of the building has become a dilemma in many ways

  The loan suspension storm has intensified, and many owners who are troubled by unfinished buildings have followed suit.

  At present, the owners of uncompleted residential flats in many places have issued statements to stop repayment of loans until the related projects are fully resumed, including Henan, Shanxi, Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Guangxi, Shaanxi and other provinces. According to the data of Kerui Research Center, as of July 13th, the number of buildings with compulsory loan suspension issued by owners has reached 106.

  Respondents believe that the loan suspension storm has a strong demonstration, and it is easy to spread in a large area across the country, undermining business order and adversely affecting the stability of the financial system. It is suggested that the local government actively communicate with the owners in an appropriate and effective way to speed up the implementation of substantive measures to ensure the delivery of the building; At the same time, because most of the owners involved in the uncompleted residential flats are just-needed groups, the suspension of loans does have the realistic constraint that their financial situation deteriorates and they are temporarily unable to pay. It is suggested that financial funds should strengthen the subsidies for the trapped groups, and banks should make appropriate profits based on commercial principles and social responsibilities.

  The delivery of the building is slow.

  Owner: It is helpless to stop lending.

  Although according to the current law, the lending bank signed a mortgage loan contract with the owner himself, and the performance of the contract should not be affected by the developer’s real estate progress. The owner stopped the loan rashly, and the personal credit report would be "stained". However, from the interview with the owner, the owner of the unfinished building knew that issuing a notice of compulsory loan suspension might not solve his actual debt burden, but it was also a desperate move.

  Zhang Heng (pseudonym), an owner of Wuhan Evergrande Times New Town, told reporters that the community opened for pre-sale in the second half of 2019. At that time, it was agreed to start handing over houses in March 2022 and hand over all houses at the end of June. At present, there are nearly 6,000 community owners. Since Evergrande "thundered" last year, the construction progress of the residential area has been extremely slow. The unit building where the owner’s property is located was capped in the middle of last year, but the progress was still the same until the end of May this year. Since October last year, the owners have collectively made representations to the Housing and Construction Bureau, the Letters and Calls Office and other relevant departments for many times, and so far there has been no obvious substantive progress.

  Wu Tian (pseudonym), another owner of the community, told reporters that because the property is located in the suburbs of Wuhan, most of the people who buy houses here just need it. Some owners are from Hubei, and people are working in other places, and they are trying to save money to buy the first suite in Wuhan. However, since last year, affected by the epidemic and other factors, some owners have lost their jobs and their incomes have fallen, which is really unable to support the pressure of repaying loans. I have also negotiated with banks before, and some banks have given the answer that they still need to repay the loans on time without receiving the relevant notice.

  "I sold the house I lived in before and made a down payment. In order to buy the house here, I applied for a mortgage loan and a decoration loan from the bank. The monthly repayment is nearly 7,000 yuan. Now I have no room to live in and rent a house, and the monthly rent is 1,500 yuan. The burden is very heavy. Among the owners, there are many people like me who have to pay the rent, pay the mortgage, and still can’t get the house. " Wu Tian said.

  Many owners pointed out that compulsory loan suspension is not the core appeal of the owners, but a helpless move to exhaust various methods, and the owner’s loan suspension is not not to repay the bank loan, but to wait until the house is handed over. The owner’s core appeal is to complete the building construction as soon as possible, but after nearly a year of negotiations with relevant government departments, the progress of the building has not made obvious substantive progress, and the owner is dissatisfied with the superficial article that the local authorities take the lead in ensuring the delivery of the building.

  "When the government just set up a special class at the end of last year, we still trusted and promised to postpone the delivery of the building for three months. We also expressed our understanding. However, after the Chinese New Year this year, there was no substantial progress in the construction site and the owners were very anxious." Zhang Heng said.

  The core reason why there are many unfinished buildings is that some developers are still in a cash flow crisis and unable to pay builders and suppliers. Wu Tian revealed that the building was a hardcover building. When he communicated with the decorator at the beginning of the year, the other party also hoped to advance the money to deliver the decoration project, expecting Evergrande to pay the money later. However, when he communicated again recently, he said that he would not do it, and the more money he advanced, the more he lost.

  Lack of funds and confidence

  Baojiaolou has become a multi-faceted dilemma

  Comprehensive reporters interviewed the owners of uncompleted residential flats, banks, housing enterprises and many other parties, and the loan suspension storm was the result of continuous fermentation intertwined by many factors.

  Judging from the notice of multi-site loan suspension, the pre-sale funds of housing enterprises seem to be the "fuse" of this storm — — The owner or accused the bank of issuing mortgage loans when the main structure of the building was not capped; Or accuse banks of putting mortgage loans into unregulated accounts in violation of planning; Or criticize the bank for failing to fulfill its obligation to supervise the pre-sale funds.

  However, two senior people from real estate enterprises told reporters that the pre-sale standards are different in different places. Not all places require the main structure of the real estate to be capped to meet the pre-sale conditions. As long as the developer obtains the pre-sale qualification and announces the mortgage registration, the bank can issue mortgage loans. As for the use of funds in the pre-sale funds supervision account, most places allow developers to withdraw funds in proportion to the project completion progress, and some places will strictly limit the scope of application of the funds withdrawn by developers, such as only giving priority to the project construction, etc. Generally, the local housing and construction departments bear the main responsibility for account supervision, and banks operate the transfer instructions according to documents such as certificates issued by relevant departments. However, because there are many capital transactions involved, it is not excluded that there are gray operations between developers and local departments and banks.

  Yan Yuejin, the research director of the think tank center of Yiju Research Institute, pointed out that the supervision of pre-sale funds is not in place, which will lead to the vacancy of housing construction funds, thus aggravating the problem of unfinished business. In the case of strict implementation of the supervision policy of pre-sale funds, it is not easy to appear unfinished, because the supervision part of pre-sale funds can theoretically ensure the completion of the project on schedule.

  At present, it is not clear whether there are irregularities in the supervision policies of mortgage loan issuance and pre-sale funds in various places. But since last year, some places have strengthened the supervision of pre-sale funds of commercial housing. The relevant person in charge of the Beijing Municipal Commission of Housing and Urban-Rural Development pointed out in November last year that since last year, some projects of Taihe and Evergrande Group in Beijing have experienced tight capital chain, shutdown and misappropriation of pre-sale funds, reflecting the illegal use of pre-sale funds in some projects.

  In November 2021, the Beijing Municipal Commission of Housing and Urban-Rural Development issued the Measures for the Supervision and Management of Pre-sale Funds of Commercial Houses in Beijing (revised in 2021) (hereinafter referred to as the Measures), which clarified that before banks pay pre-sale funds, local authorities should conduct on-site surveys or verify the progress of the project through the municipal engineering quality risk classification control platform, further strengthening the supervision responsibility of the territory in the management of fund withdrawal.

  The "Measures" specifically stipulates that when there are major risks in the pre-sale project, the district housing and urban-rural construction department should fully take over the pre-sale fund supervision account or establish a government supervision account, implement closed management to ensure the safety of funds, and give priority to engineering construction.

  In the research report, Kerui Research Center emphasized that the storm appeared to be a contradiction between banks and real estate owners, but in fact it was the real estate purchased by the owners. Due to the developer’s financial problems, it faced the risk of shutdown or delayed delivery, and some of them were even on the verge of unfinished business. In order to protect their legitimate rights and interests, the owners have to "cut off the supply" to protect themselves, hoping that the government will attach great importance to it.

  Respondents told reporters that the reason for the mortgage suspension storm is the lack of funds and confidence: First, the progress of ensuring the delivery of houses is slow, including the slow resolution of risks of problem housing enterprises, the significant decline in sales after the accident, and the obvious shortage of available resources of enterprises. The root cause of the problem of guaranteed housing is that the problem housing enterprises switch from the original fund pool model to the project’s own hematopoietic model, and the fund gap of guaranteed housing projects is large, so it is difficult to solve it by relying on their own sales returns without external resources injection. A vicious circle has been formed, that is, the more housing enterprises need money, the greater the decline in sales, the greater the difficulty of financing, the greater the pressure of ensuring the delivery of houses, and the further slowdown in construction and construction. Second, the lack of confidence of buyers, the suspension of loans forced to guarantee the delivery of houses, and the appeal was reasonable.

  Financial risks are generally controllable.

  Derivative risk should not be underestimated

  From the perspective of laws and regulations, every party in this loan suspension storm will face risks, and the financial risks it may cause have also become the focus of market attention.

  According to the "Measures", if development enterprises and regulatory banks use pre-sale funds in violation of regulations, resulting in unfinished projects and serious consequences against the legitimate rights and interests of buyers, the competent departments of various industries will transfer them to the public security departments for execution, and if the case constitutes a crime, criminal responsibility will be investigated according to law.

  Some owners who stop lending face the risk of dishonesty. A legal person told reporters that if there is no fault in the supervision bank after investigation, if the buyer fails to repay the loan after losing the case, it will be included in the blacklist of dishonesty. If the buyer not only said that he would stop lending, but actually failed to repay the loan for several months, if the buyer fails to repay the loan after losing the case, he will be included in the blacklist of dishonesty.

  From the perspective of financial risks, although the loan suspension storm only occurred in individual projects in individual cities, Kerui Research Center pointed out that from the current situation that the number of buildings with compulsory loan suspension is increasing day by day, there is still a steady expansion trend in the follow-up, which should attract the attention of relevant departments. Regardless of whether the owner’s unilateral default behavior is legally tenable, it is easy to cause a follow-up effect and financial risks in the short term simply from the harm of public panic and the continuous spread of negative emotions caused by the incident.

  Sun Tianqi, director of the Financial Stability Bureau of the People’s Bank of China, said at the press conference of the State Council Office on July 13 that China’s financial risks are convergent and generally controllable, and 99% of the banking assets are within the safe boundary. At the same time, he stressed that financial management departments must be highly vigilant against all kinds of financial risks, further lay a good foundation for preventing and defusing financial risks, and firmly hold the bottom line that systemic financial risks will not occur.

  Respondents pointed out that mortgage suspension may also dampen residents’ purchase behavior, delay the return of housing sales to normal state, increase the operating pressure of real estate chain, and drag down the steady growth effect to some extent.

  Calm down the loan suspension as soon as possible

  It also needs active communication from local governments.

  The core appeal of the owner is to guarantee the delivery of the building. In the opinion of many experts, whether the local government and relevant departments can communicate and deal with the work as soon as possible is the key to quell the loan suspension and eliminate the derivative effects.

  The root of calming down the loan suspension as soon as possible in the short term lies in the need for local governments to actively communicate with owners in an appropriate way. Respondents suggested to reporters that it is necessary to compact the main responsibility of local governments to guarantee the delivery of houses, provide incremental resources, adopt cooperative construction and project transfer to stabilize the confidence of consumers, ensure the smooth implementation of legal and effective purchase contracts, and promote the stopped projects to resume work as soon as possible, and promise to guarantee the delivery of houses within a certain period of time for overdue delivery projects.

  At the same time, because most of the owners of uncompleted residential flats involved in the loan suspension storm in the country are just in need, many of them are facing difficulties such as unemployment and income decline under the current economic pressure, and they do have debt repayment pressure. It is suggested that the financial department and banks work together to alleviate the debt repayment pressure of trapped individuals, but the premise of this move is that they cannot break the foundation of commercial operation of banks that borrow and repay money.

  An economic policy expert in Beijing, who did not want to be named, told reporters that we can refer to foreign treatment methods, and commercial banks are not required to directly make profits free of charge, but financial funds are involved in giving appropriate subsidies to the trapped groups, which can also stimulate consumption. He stressed that financial activities have their own market rules, and mortgage is only one of many debts. If mortgage is not repaid, other debts are easy to follow. Therefore, commercial banks need to follow commercial rules when they participate in the rescue.

  Another financial analyst suggested to reporters that the loan suspension incident should be handled steadily. For buyers’ reasonable demand for loan suspension, the repayment is allowed to be suspended in stages, the bank will not confirm the default and the risk will not be downgraded for the time being, and the personal side will not be included in the credit information, so the problem of loan interest during the loan suspension period will be carefully handled.

  In addition, further increase financial support. Financial institutions contracted the financing of problem housing enterprises in the early stage, and there was no reasonable compliance means to support the funding gap of Baojiao Building. To solve the problem of "guaranteed house delivery", incremental capital injection is needed, and the insurance of problem housing enterprises needs stable expectation of continuous operation. The policies that can be adopted include but are not limited to: promoting the issuance of REITs for commercial properties, relaxing the increase of listed housing enterprises with the participation of major shareholders, building a stable fund or guarantee fund for guaranteed house delivery to construction enterprises in the form of preferential creditor’s rights, promoting the supplementary mortgage loan (PSL) model, encouraging local governments to buy the assets of problem housing enterprises "commercial houses into public rental houses" and withdrawing REITs, and promoting AMC policy acquisition under the principle of guaranteed profit.

What are the odds of TikTok suing the US government for "seven deadly sins"?

  Beijing, Beijing, August 27 th: TikTok v. the US government’s "seven deadly sins". What is the odds?

  Zhongxin. com reporter Wang Qingkai

  In response to the executive order signed by US President Trump on August 6th, TikTok (Tik Tok International Edition) filed a complaint with the US judicial authorities on August 24th (Beijing time on August 25th). The complaint advocates the abolition of the executive order issued by Trump on August 6, and advocates prohibiting the Ministry of Commerce from implementing the executive order.

  Prior to this, on August 6, Trump signed an executive order, which will ban any transaction between anyone or enterprise under the jurisdiction of the United States and TikTok’s parent company after 45 days. On August 14th, Trump signed another executive order, requiring ByteDance to sell or divest the company’s TikTok business in the United States within 90 days.

  Why does the US government ask ByteDance to sell or divest the company’s TikTok business in the United States? If the U.S. government’s ban comes into effect, what impact will it have on TikTok? What are the odds of TikTok suing the US government?

  "Seven deadly sins"

  The content of the complaint provided by TikTok to the reporter of China News Service pointed out that the administrative order of the US government involved "seven deadly sins", four of which were unconstitutional and three were ultra vires. For example:

  The process of the executive order is unconstitutional: ByteDance and TikTok were not informed about the TikTok ban, and no opportunity to appeal was provided, which violated the provisions of the Fifth Amendment of the US Constitution on due process.

  The basis for the promulgation of the executive order is illegal, which constitutes ultra vires: IEEPA gives the President of the United States the power to restrict and control economic transactions in order to protect national security, foreign policy and economy, based on the national emergency to deal with "abnormal conditions and special threats". The executive order uses vague expressions such as "potential", "possible" and "reported" throughout, and there is no evidence that ByteDance poses an actual threat.

  It is unconstitutional for the executive order to force the payment to the US Treasury for the sale of TikTok’s American assets: this violates the provisions of the Fifth Amendment on restricting the government’s power to deprive private property.

  … …

  According to the complaint, ByteDance has been trying to actively communicate with the US government for nearly a year since October 2019. However, according to the agency, it has repeatedly refused to contact ByteDance about its concerns.

  It is reported that this lawsuit was jointly filed by TikTok and ByteDance, and the litigants included US President Trump, US Secretary of Commerce Ross and US Department of Commerce.

  At the same time, in response to the previous ban on all transactions with TikTok and ByteDance, ByteDance is also preparing a "shutdown plan".

  What is the basis of the executive order of the US government?

  The executive order signed by U.S. President Trump on August 6th means that from September 20th, any American company or individual will not be able to trade with ByteDance, TikTok’s parent company in China. For example, TikTok will not be able to APPear in American app stores such as Apple AppStore; TikTok can’t pay American employees either.

  This is a chronic poison for TikTok. TikTok has more than 100 million users in the United States. If it can’t APPear in the app store in the United States, TikTok will gradually be abandoned by users with the iteration of smart phones.

  What is the basis for the overbearing "ban" of the US government?

  Sun Yuanzhao, executive director of the Asia-Pacific Institute of Law (APLI) in the United States, told the China News Service that the presidential order issued by the President of the United States to TikTok was based on the International Emergency Economic Power Act (IEEPA) as amended in 1977. This bill empowers the president to impose economic sanctions when he encounters "unusual and very serious threats", such as "national security is threatened".

  According to the precedent that the president of the United States was authorized by IEEPA to issue an executive order, the conditions for the president to be authorized are: when the United States is in wartime or emergency, it faces "abnormal or special threats." Only when these two conditions are met can the president invoke the executive order issued by IEEPA to regulate international economic transactions.

  According to lawyer Wang Xinrui, a senior partner of Beijing Anli Law Firm, the International Emergency Economic Power Act (IEEPA), on which the executive order is based, is an implementation rule of the National Emergency Law. Therefore, according to the law, the US Congress has the right to terminate the national emergency by means of a joint resolution, or to introduce laws to restrict the president’s power in IEEPA.

  However, Wang Xinrui told the China News Service reporter that from the public information, so far, no member of Congress has proposed a resolution to terminate the state of emergency, which also shows that the US Congress is consistent with the president on this issue, and it is not a state of mutual restraint.

  What are the odds?

  In fact, Tiktok himself knows that he told the China News Service reporter on the 25th that "this is a challenge with little chance of winning".

  In Sun Yuanzhao’s view, as far as the first executive order of the U.S. government on August 6 is concerned, there are many flaws in both procedure and substance. However, because the United States adopts a constitutional system of separation of powers, the courts generally give high respect to the president’s behavior in handling national security or foreign affairs, and are unwilling to say more, so as not to exceed their powers and improperly interfere with the executive power.

  Sun Yuanzhao said that the president of the United States enjoys great discretion in this field, and the courts generally give the president "great respect" in past cases.

  However, recent cases show that if there are serious flaws in the rights and interests guaranteed by the constitution or the procedures behind it, the court may still intervene. Therefore, this case is not completely one-sided.

  Sun Yuanzhao believes that TikTok should have the opportunity to fight with the US government. And this case does not rule out the possibility of eventually going all the way to the Federal Supreme Court. This means that there is still a long and arduous road to go. "But this also allowed TikTok to win valuable time."

  In Wang Xinrui’s view, there is little chance for ByteDance to sue the US government, but the proceedings are meaningful, which can further clarify the problem and show confidence to the outside world. "If you silently accept an unjust administrative order, it is tantamount to admitting that you are indefensible. Even if you can’t win in the end, forcing the other party to make this matter clear and make the rules clearer is also beneficial to the enterprise. "

  Sun Yuanzhao predicted that if the federal district court agreed to grant an injunction, the US government would immediately appeal. This means that before the whole case has entered the real substantive trial stage, the two sides will spend several months entangled in this point. This can also buy Tik Tok valuable time. If the district court refuses to grant an injunction, Tik Tok can still appeal, but at this time, I’m afraid the order has taken effect, so there is no time.

  "The best result is, of course, to overturn or partially overturn the administrative order, but it seems difficult; The worst result is that the court decides to continue to execute the administrative order, and the lawsuit will not have the effect of delaying the procedure, "Wang Xinrui said.

  The content industry has a long way to go.

  TikTok achieved explosive growth in the United States and around the world before it was banned by the executive order of the US government. At present, TikTok has covered more than 200 countries, with more than 2 billion downloads worldwide and more than 91 million monthly active users in the United States.

  "There are two bans on Tiktok, which shows that the US government is arrogant and unreasonable." Li Mingde, a professor at Xi ‘an Jiaotong University and dean of the School of Journalism and New Media, told the China News Service that managing the Internet according to law is a common practice in all countries in the world, but the reason given by the executive order of the US government is national security, which is unreasonable and far-fetched.

  In fact, in order for the enterprise to operate normally, TikTok has been actively proposing solutions to reduce American concerns about national security. For example, the top security measures in the industry have been taken to ensure users’ privacy and data security, and a transparency center has been set up, so that internal and external experts can observe TikTok’s content audit and check the algorithm source code in real time.

  "This transparent behavior is unmatched by other major social platforms and makes TikTok ahead of the industry." The complaint pointed out that surpassing the safety of the industry did not help TikTok avoid deliberate encirclement and suppression.

  In Li Mingde’s view, behind the high-sounding reason is distrust of China enterprises, which is also a kind of political manipulation: all technologies that come from China and are superior to the United States are all in the range of "decoupling". Although it has a high usage rate and credibility among the American people. "This also corrects a long-standing stereotype: technology has national boundaries and application is politics."

  In recent years, China’s network technology has developed by leaps and bounds, and various software development and application for different consumer classes are surging. However, software is often closely tied with content and applies to each other. Li Mingde believes that Tiktok’s restriction in the United States will affect China’s content industry to go abroad. After all, there are a large number of active followers behind the United States, which have the role of demonstrating and leading.

  Wu Fei, director of the Center for Public Diplomacy and Strategic Communication of Zhejiang University, said that the TikTok incident sounded the alarm for China, that is, if TikTok is kicked out of the United States, it may mean that the globalization of such industries in China will be very difficult in the future.

  TikTok told China News Service that the company has made the worst plan to shut down its business in the United States. Because the shutdown involves more than 1,500 employees and thousands of partners of TikTok in the United States, the company is intensively evaluating the damage to the legitimate rights and interests of employees, users and partners after the shutdown, and simultaneously making security plans.

Innovative subject, how to attract "external wisdom" and strengthen "bones and muscles"

  [Core Tip] Enterprises are the main body of innovation. However, in the fierce market torrent, the technological innovation of enterprises faces many challenges such as time, cost and talents. To solve this contradiction, Industry-University-Research integration plays an important role. In recent years, the provincial electronic information group has explored the Industry-University-Research integration of various modes by linking member enterprises, universities and research institutes, and promoted the gathering of various innovative elements to enterprises, making innovative breakthroughs in the frontier field of electronic information industry.

  In mid-April, Fujian Zhaoyuan Optoelectronic Co., Ltd., located in Fuzhou, held a video conference.

  The video is the backbone of the research and development of Zhaoyuan Optoelectronics; At the other end, it is an expert in the field of display technology in our province — — Dr. Yan Qun from distinguished professor of Fuzhou University, Dr. Zhu Haomiao from Institute of Structure of Chinese Academy of Sciences and Dr. Li Yang from Mindu Innovation Laboratory.

  On the same day, all parties re-evaluated the test data of the combination of the quantum dot material of the expert team and the chip of Zhaoyuan Optoelectronics. The results are encouraging — — The absorption and conversion efficiency of quantum dots for blue light is greatly improved!

  "This is a great improvement!" Zhang Fan, director of Zhaoyuan Optoelectronic R&D Technology Center, said that this means that the "four-party joint team" is another key step away from conquering the full-color high-pixels per inch Micro LED chips and driving modules, and then leading the display technology replacement.

  The project "test questions" work together to tackle key problems

  "Enterprises should innovate and introduce ‘ Waizhi ’ It’s crucial. And the achievements of high-tech must be ‘ Cross-border ’ Output, relying on production, learning and research alone, is difficult to achieve. "

  Zhaoyuan Optoelectronics is a member enterprise of Provincial Electronic Information Group and a national high-tech enterprise. Over the years, it has become the third generation semiconductor industry base in our province.

  Although the production and sales of LED chips are among the best in China, and the products cover general lighting chips, automotive lighting chips, backlight chips, etc., the top management of the enterprise is very clear: "To lead the display chip industry, we must lay out the future!"

  It is a new generation of display technology — — Micro LED (micro light emitting diode) chip.

  What is a Micro LED?

  "If the single pixel of the existing top-end mobile phone screen is more than 100 microns, the Micro LED shows that a single pixel is only more than 10 microns. This means that the pixels per inch of the same area screen has been greatly improved. Generally speaking, the definition will be increased by 10 times. " Distinguished professor of Fuzhou University and Yan Qun, global secretary general of the International Information Display Society, told reporters.

  Dr. Yan Qun established a research and development team based on the National and Local Joint Engineering Laboratory of Flat Panel Display Technology of Fuzhou University, and Micro LED is its main research direction.

  In his view, high-definition Micro LED will greatly improve the interactive experience of virtual reality. "After mass production, it will lead the replacement of the display industry, and it is expected that a new industrial cluster will be derived in the future, with a volume ten times or even a hundred times that of the existing display industry."

  Zhaoyuan Optoelectronics is one of the earliest enterprises in China to mass-produce and ship Micro LED chips. But they encountered a bottleneck: at present, they can only make monochrome Micro LED.

  "Monochrome Micro LED products are mainly used in high-precision and high-pixel military and police equipment and aircraft driving." Zhang Fan admits that the market in these areas is limited.

  We must break through the color Micro LED technology in order to face the hundreds of millions of consumer markets — — This is a new "test question" given by the market to Zhaoyuan Optoelectronics.

  At this time, the "light-color conversion technology" owned by experts from Fuzhou University, Mindu Innovation Laboratory and Institute of Physics of Chinese Academy of Sciences has attracted the attention of enterprises. With the help of quantum dot materials, this technology stimulates the "photoelectric effect", thus realizing the technical iteration from "monochrome" to "full color".

  Enterprises have demand, and universities and scientific research units have technology. The quartet hit it off immediately, and then formed a joint research team in the form of project cooperation.

  In this cooperation, the Quartet team is indispensable — — The quantum dot preparation and spraying technology of Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, the quantum dot forming technology of Mindu Innovation Laboratory and the display control technology of Fuzhou University team are all industry leaders, while Zhaoyuan Optoelectronics has advanced chip manufacturing technology and expensive equipment such as MOCVD, optical coating machine and mask aligner.

  From conception to engineering, to mass production, it is necessary to cross many technical barriers. From the beginning of the cooperation, it is convenient for everyone to be like a family. Discussion in the meeting room and research in the laboratory have become commonplace. Even under the epidemic, there is no relaxation, which is the technological breakthrough. In 2021, this project undertook a major project of scientific and technological innovation in the province. At present, the first phase of the project, that is, the theoretical and technical engineering, is coming to an end, and it is expected that full-color Micro LED will be mass-produced in 3~5 years.

  Joint research brings win-win results. If we only rely on the enterprise to make chips and quantum dot materials, it may take several times more time and miss the development opportunity; The electronic information industry is a capital-intensive industry, which often invests hundreds of millions or even billions of yuan. Without the investment of capital and equipment from enterprises, it is difficult for universities and research institutes to achieve technology landing.

  At present, most of the more than 30 first-class subsidiaries of Provincial Electronic Information Group have adopted the Industry-University-Research model of project cooperation to tackle key problems. "Enterprises should innovate and introduce ‘ Waizhi ’ It’s crucial. And the achievements of high-tech must be ‘ Cross-border ’ Output, relying on production, learning and research alone, is difficult to achieve. " Yan Qun said.

  Create a "consortium" for collaborative innovation

  "Industry-University-Research cooperation is not a temporary need, but to make enterprises truly become the questioners, respondents and reviewers of scientific and technological innovation. Only by forming a long-term mechanism can we truly achieve this goal. "

  In the spacious and bright computer room, the orderly cabinets form a supercomputer, and there is a huge amount of data rushing every second. Here, it is the second phase of the provincial supercomputing center operated by Digital Fujian Cloud Computing Company, a subsidiary of Fuzhou Binhai New City Electronic Information Group.

  At present, the second phase of provincial supercomputing can provide floating-point computing capacity of not less than 3000 trillion times per second, and it will provide floating-point computing capacity of not less than 100 million times per second by the end of this year, leading the province!

  But even such a "super brain" has "growing pains".

  "Over the years, we have invested heavily in hardware infrastructure, and the computing power of data centers has improved rapidly, but the application of computing power has always been a shortcoming." Chen Xiang, assistant general manager of Digital Fujian Cloud Computing Company, analyzed that in the field of supercomputing, it is not possible to "calculate" without data, but must be supported by relevant application software and calculation models. "This is our weakness."

  Cooperation with colleges and universities to solve the application difficulties has become the way to solve the problem sought by Digital Fujian Cloud Computing Company.

  "Artificial intelligence is the main field of supercomputing applications. Beijing Institute of Technology has great advantages in artificial intelligence applications, not only with strong scientific research capabilities, but also with many practical application scenarios." Chen Xiang said that after learning that the Southeast Institute of Information Technology of Beijing Institute of Technology landed in Putian, the company actively contacted each other.

  After continuous communication, a long-term mechanism of Industry-University-Research cooperation was formally formed — — In November last year, the two sides jointly established a collaborative innovation center for cloud computing and big data, and was approved for the collaborative innovation platform project in Fuzhou area of Fuxiaquan National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone.

  The Innovation Center has just been established for half a year, and a number of substantive cooperation have been launched.

  "The two sides are working together to develop an intelligent analysis engine based on artificial intelligence." Chen Xiang said that the system is based on intelligent analysis of network hot search and network language, and assists users to turn the analysis results into operational decision-making command ability. "This application can be widely used in multi-industry and multi-scene deep integration applications, such as screening cyber violence behavior and mastering brand popularity."

  This hand in hand is just a "stepping stone". In the future, this "consortium" will also carry out joint innovation in the fields of cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, blockchain and information security, industrial Internet, etc., and provide support for the development of cloud computing and big data technology in our province.

  "Form an innovation consortium, and achieve the goal of breaking the ‘ through the coordinated operation of you coming and going and deep cooperation; Information island ’ , realize ‘ Group innovation ’ The purpose. " In Chen Xiang’s view, from single project cooperation to long-term platform construction, it is the embodiment of Industry-University-Research’s deep integration.

  As a leading enterprise in machine vision industry and artificial intelligence Internet of Things in our province, Star Internet of Things, a subsidiary of Star Network Ruijie, and Haixi Research Institute of China Academy of Sciences jointly established "Haixi Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences-Star Internet of Things AI Innovation Research Center". In recent years, the two sides have conducted in-depth cooperation on the "Smart Campus-Smart Classroom" project.

  "In the past, it was necessary to send a duty teacher to inspect the eye exercises between classes. Now, with the system jointly developed by us and the team of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, we can judge through the fine motion recognition of AI." Tian Zhongmin, director of Starnet Ruijie Technology Center, said.

  Among them, the algorithm model for precise motion recognition by the team of Strait Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences can be directly used by enterprises, and various applications can be derived through joint secondary development.

  "Long-term cooperation with research institutes can reduce the research and development time of enterprises, save research and development costs, and also make the research and development achievements of research institutes face the market directly. This is a win-win choice." Tian Zhongmin believes.

  He said that Industry-University-Research’s cooperation is not a temporary need, but to make enterprises truly become the questioners, respondents and reviewers of scientific and technological innovation. Therefore, only by building a more systematic and comprehensive organizational model and forming a long-term mechanism can this goal be truly achieved.

  Build a "connector" to match "super brain"

  "Predict the development trend of the industry, participate in the policy formulation of government departments, and match and graft the group member enterprises ‘ Super brain ’ , is our goal. "

  Zhaoyuan Optoelectronics "joined hands" with Fuzhou University, Institute of Physics of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Mindu Innovation Laboratory to lay out "future industries"; Southeast Institute of Information Technology of Beijing Institute of Technology has long-term cooperation with Digital Fujian Cloud Computing Company & HELIP; … Industry-University-Research’s "hand in hand" actually has a "matchmaker" behind it — — Applied Technology Research Institute of Provincial Electronic Information Group (hereinafter referred to as "Applied Research Institute").

  It is rare for provincial enterprises to set up applied research institutes at the group level in our province. As a wholly-owned first-class subsidiary of Provincial Electronic Information Group, the Applied Research Institute is a provincial state-owned new think tank and the first batch of key think tank pilot units in our province. The most direct purpose of setting up this institution is to carry out industrial research and innovation cultivation.

  Entering the Applied Research Institute, the reporter found that this is a young and mature team. "The backbone of the team is mostly ‘ Post-80s ’ ‘ After 90 ’ And the vast majority of people have rich industrial experience in new display, optoelectronic devices, integrated circuits and other industries. " Zhang Jian, a senior engineer at the Applied Research Institute, said.

  Zhang Jian introduced that around 2020, the Applied Research Institute undertook the research of the "White Paper on Technology Development of Four Electronic Information Industries in Fujian Province, such as Micro LED" by the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology.

  "Through market research, we learned that Micro LED has a broad market prospect as the next generation display technology, and it is also an area that the province intends to focus on supporting development. This industry is related to the current layout of Zhaoyuan Optoelectronics, a member of the group. " Zhang Jian said that their research results eventually played an important role in promoting the cooperation between Zhaoyuan Optoelectronics and various teams.

  In the view of Xian Yongzhang, deputy general manager of Applied Research Institute, Applied Research Institute is not only a "bridge" between group member enterprises, government decision-making and scientific research in universities, but also a "think tank". Xian Yongzhang said: "Predict the development trend of the industry, participate in the policy formulation of government departments, and then match and graft the group members ‘ Super brain ’ , is our goal. "

  Guided by the goal, in addition to guiding the group enterprises to climb the high ground of Micro LED technology, the Applied Research Institute is actively promoting the group member enterprises to lay out future "tracks" such as automotive electronics, third-generation compound semiconductors and flexible electronics.

  The Applied Research Institute, with a strong "pushing hand", promotes the Industry-University-Research cooperation among the group member enterprises, universities and research institutes from a "short-term and quick" mode with a project as the cooperation cycle to a long-term and strategic cooperation.

  Last year, the Institute participated in the formulation of the special plan for strategic emerging industries in Putian during the 14th Five-Year Plan. In this process, after learning that the information of Southeast Institute of Information Technology of Beijing Institute of Technology was introduced locally, the institute "matched" its cooperation with Digital Fujian Cloud Computing Company, and the two sides hit it off.

  Nowadays, in the provincial electronic information group, such Industry-University-Research platforms emerge one after another — —

  Star Network Ruijie signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Fujian Research Institute of China Academy of Engineering to carry out in-depth cooperation; Fuzhou University, Institute of Physics of Chinese Academy of Sciences and Fuxin Electronics have carried out collaborative innovation in technology research and development, achievement transformation and industry consolidation. The Provincial Electronic Information Group and the Fifth Institute of Electronics of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly built the Xinchuang Adaptation Testing Center and the public service platform of Xinchuang Industry … …

  "The development of electronic information industry must rely on the innovation of enterprises, universities and research institutes ‘ One small step ’ , converge into a breakthrough ‘ Get stuck in the neck ’ Key technology ‘ A big step ’ 。” Xian Yongzhang said that during the Tenth Five-Year Plan period, the provincial electronic information group was positioned to develop into a strategic innovation highland of China’s electronic information industry. "By exploring the operation mode of innovation platform of state-owned enterprises, we hope to become ‘ Connector ’ Take substantial steps in promoting collaborative innovation in the whole industry chain. "

  Under a series of innovation-driven development strategies, Provincial Electronic Information Group has made continuous breakthroughs in the fields of domestic memory chips, new generation display technology and Xinchuang technology. In 2021, the R&D expenditure of the whole group was 3.295 billion yuan, accounting for 6% of the total investment.

  "The electronic information industry is capital-intensive, technology-intensive and talent-intensive, and Industry-University-Research cooperation is an important driving force for the Group’s innovation and development. Next, we will continue to promote various forms of Industry-University-Research cooperation, such as project cooperation, joint research and development, the formation of Industry-University-Research Alliance, and technology transfer, to promote the quality change, efficiency change and power change of Fujian’s electronic information industry. " Bian Zhihang, general manager of the provincial electronic information group, said. (Reporter Huang Qing Lin Biao)

"Rabbit Violence" has attracted attention. What happened to director China’s collective promotion of new people


Special feature of 1905 film network After four days of release, the box office exceeded 20 million, and the real-time prediction of related platforms is expected to reach 40 million, which is the achievement achieved so far from the young director support program of the China Film Directors Association called the "Green Project".

 

Among the 25 young directors selected in the past five sessions of the Onion Project, 15 films have been made, and 5 films including "Rabbit Violence" have been presented to the audience. It can be said that it is one of the most efficient new director plans in China at present.

 

But at the same time, we will also have a question. At present, Rabbit Violence, which has the highest box office, has 20 million, while Over the Spring, which has a high reputation, has a total box office of only 10 million. And there have been several billion new directors in the market. Under such circumstances, why do we need these new director support programs?

 

one


When talking about what kind of directors Shallot is planning to find for China films, Sun Yang, the producer of Under the Sun, said, "I don’t think so. You can’t say that the talents you must ask Shallot to find are, must be, and. In fact, the person was the last person to look at. For example, at that time, the person who signed up for the green project could not be so good — — It is more important to see the potential of a future. "


Liang Ming, the director who filmed "Under the Sun", was selected as one of the top five directors of the Third Green Project in 2018 with this project. After the film was completed, it was shown in several international film festivals and was released in China in November 2020. It took two years from selection to release.


Compared with other venture capital activities in the mainland, the speed of the Green Onion Program to support young directors is quite fast, and compared with the previous two sessions, it seems to the outside world that young directors have completed their own projects more smoothly.

 

The chairman of the Green Onion Project believes that this is an inevitable trend from market development to brand building. At the beginning of the Green Onion Project, the industry still held a wait-and-see attitude towards young directors.

 

Since the first green onion plan launched in 2015, the market has indeed experienced a change from indifference to new directors to venture capital and new director plans. And the shallot project, which has entered the sixth session, has always held a good hand — — This plan initiated by China Film Directors Association is equivalent to gathering the collective strength of directors in China to tap new talents for the industry.

 


Jia Zhangke,,, and other directors have all held the post of chairman, and the evaluation instructors include directors and producers of,,,,, and so on. It is the best industry resource to help the new director complete his feature film debut.

Most of the young directors selected for the Green Onion Project have relevant film and television education background and certain professional experience, and this phenomenon has become more and more obvious in recent years. However, unlike other venture capitalists, after five years’ development, the Shallot Project pays more attention to training, and the selected directors will go through several months’ mentor training before choosing the final five.

 

We are also very curious, why do these young directors with certain experience need training?

 

"All of our training courses are facing actual combat." Chairman Wang Hongwei explained, "Facing the front line of creation, facing the current environment and market. Maybe college education can’t keep up with the market and the environment so fast. Then our training as this industry must not be divorced from the market and the environment. "

 


Many reports have also talked about the training mode of the Shallot Project, which is a series of training from creation to distribution. But what is more important is obviously the further support for their creation after the selection of the top five directors. Sun Yang, the producer, told us that the reward mode of the Onion Project now is to put the bonus into the crew account after the crew is established, so as to ensure that the funds can be used as film investment, and at the same time, the funds for the director’s reward have become the director’s share in the film.

 

However, only 1 million funds are not enough to support the operation of a crew. The project selected for the Green Onion Project may not be the more commercial theme favored by the market, so Xiaodong Hou, the chief producer of the Green Onion Project, is also helping the project with financing. For example, negotiate with companies such as Ali and Wanda, give these companies priority investment rights and jointly support young directors.

 

An industry veteran revealed that every year, Xiaodong Hou would go to major companies to introduce projects related to the Green Onion Project, hoping to promote cooperation and jointly launch a new director.

However, when the project is filmed and put on the market, it will have the commodity attribute. The market is more looking forward to the commercial performance of these films. Wang Hongwei has been thinking about the arrival rate of these films. He mentioned that the Sixth Shallot Plan, which has already started, is working hard to improve the arrival rate and the influence on the audience and the market in terms of selecting projects and training directors.

 

In Sun Yang’s view, the success of the Shallot Project is to make directors recognized in the industry. "This goal may be different from that of the Pure Art Film Festival. We still have to consolidate the market, consolidate the team of young directors, and update the market, genre and film awareness. "

 

"Rabbit Violence may be expected to reach more than 40 million, which is a good state. I think the box office is really not the first important thing for these young directors. "

 

"Including our" Under the Sun ",although from the market point of view, it didn’t get a very explosive harvest, but the director Liang Ming actually gained more because he was recognized in the industry and won some related awards. I think these are enough things."


 

Sun Yang’s remarks have indeed been confirmed by other directors. For example, Liang Ming, Bai Xue and other directors’ next works are already in preparation. Chen Shizhong, who was selected as one of the top five directors of the 5th Green Project, has not started shooting his own selected project, The Wild Romance, but he has been recognized by the industry. His new film, Finding Her, is invested by Wanda and Dongshen, starring in it, which is also a very good opportunity for the new director.

Compared with other domestic venture capital and new director support programs, the biggest feature of the Green Onion Program is that there is no related film festival to form a closed-loop system. But in Wang Hongwei’s view, this just gives directors more freedom.

 

Wang Hongwei said that once the support plan has formed a closed loop, it may not be a healthy phenomenon, and it may be the best choice for the director to complete the final inspection of the works more openly facing the market. "Our annual plan will last for about four months, which is actually beyond the span of any film festival. And if it is based on a certain film festival, then it feels like it has become a relatively closed system. "

 

When the works are handed over to the market, they are faced with the consideration of real money and silver. When "Over Spring" was released, the producer and director of the film once asked whether the Shallot Project could continue to travel with the film for a period of time in the film’s announcement stage.

 


However, Wang Hongwei also admitted that the strength of China Film Directors Association is not enough to cover the stage of publicity and development, and the industry association is not a publicity and development company, and more can only rely on the strength of the big coffee industry to complete the follow-up work.

 

"The box office is not ideal. There are reasons why the content of the film itself is relatively small, and some of them are really unable to keep up with the announcement of these low-cost films. Then, in the current market environment, Xuanfa has become a thing that needs real money to do, so it will be relatively difficult. This is also a new director. If it is said that after shooting a film that is actually professionally qualified or even better, then the problem faced at the export end. "

 

For example, "Rabbit Violence", which was produced by the producer, cooperated with Cat’s Eye in the release stage, and became the best-selling film in the box office. "Over Spring" has been escorted by Wanda. Looking at the film of the current green onion project, the one who is photographed is likely to become a little dark horse.

 

This film, which was selected for the 4th Green Project, starred by Yao Chen,, and so on, can be called the best combination of personal expression and commercialization pursued by the current Green Project, and it has been finished. And, as a producer, was selected for the fifth shallot program, which was officially launched in July this year.

 

Talking about the future development direction of the Green Onion Project, Wang Hongwei said that even if the reaction in the market is weak, I hope that the industry can see the ideas, concepts and the ability to shoot feature films of this group of young directors: "Our goal is not only to push a film, but more importantly, a group of directors can become such a generation that can take over in the future China films, especially in the mainstream film market."


The highest frequency in history! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

1. Preface: The GPU with the highest frequency in 6nm process was born.

In 2016, NVIDIA and AMD entered the 14/16nm era almost at the same time, but the GPU they released at that time was completely unlike the products of the same era.

At that time, the frequency of GTX 1080 could easily break through 2GHz, but AMD’s RX 480 has been struggling around 1.3GHz.

Six years later, the running frequency of NVIDIA’s latest generation RTX 3000 is still stuck at 2GHz, while AMD’s RDNA 2 GPU with 7nm process technology has reached 2.4GHz, and it is far away from the latest generation of N cards in terms of energy efficiency ratio.

Now the RX 6500 XT with TSMC’s 6nm process is coming, and it will be completely invincible in frequency.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

RX 6500 XT still adopts RDNA 2 architecture, but the manufacturing process has been upgraded from TSMC’s 7nm to 6nm. The core of RX6500XT is a smaller Navi 24, with 16 groups of computing units (1024 stream processors) and 16 Ray Accelerators optical tracking units, and the acceleration frequency has reached 2825MHz.The power consumption of the whole card is 107W, in which the power consumption of GPU core is 90W.

Different from the previous RDNA 2 GPU, the real operating frequency of RX 6500 XT can easily exceed the acceleration frequency of 2825MHz. If AMD is willing, it is not difficult for RX 6500 XT to run at a frequency above 3GHz.

The video memory is matched with 64-bit 4GB GDDR6, with a video memory frequency of 18GHz and a bandwidth of 144 GB/s. There is still an Infinity Cache integrated inside the GPU, but the capacity is only 16MB.

Therefore, this is a graphics card for 1080P, which is not suitable for running games with a resolution of 2K or higher.

The detailed parameters of RX 6500 XT are as follows:

The highest frequency in history! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

As can be seen from the above table, with the support of 6nm process technology, Navi 24 accommodates 5.4 billion transistors with a chip area of 107 square millimeters, and the transistor density is 10% higher than that of Navi 23 with 7nm and other RDNA 2 GPU.

Of course, in addition to the improvement of transistor density, the 6nm process technology also makes the frequency of RX 6500 XT reach an unprecedented height.

For the purpose of controlling the chip scale,The AV1 and H.265/HEVC codes are cut off from Navi 24 core, and AMD suggests using the coding ability of CPU instead of operation.

In addition, Navi 24 can only support PCIe 4.0×4, which is used on motherboards supporting PCIe 4.0. The bandwidth of x4 is still sufficient for RX 6500 XT (equivalent to PCIe 3.0 x8).However, if the motherboard or CPU only supports PCIe 3.0, there will be obvious performance loss.

The suggested retail price of RX 6500 XT starts from 1599 yuan, which doesn’t look cheap. But nowadays, the GTX 1650 Super with lower performance is generally more than 2,000 yuan, and the GTX 1660 Super is more than 3,000 yuan.

Second, the sapphire RX 6500 XT Platinum Edition Tour

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

We received the sapphire RX 6500 XT platinum version, and the design continues the design concept of the platinum version.

The whole front is black, with two 95mm double ball fans. The height of the radiator is about 1~2cm higher than that of the whole PCB.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

There has to be a metal backboard anyway.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

The output interface has only one HDMI 2.1 and one DP1.4.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

Two pure copper nickel-plated heat pipes with pure copper base can easily cope with players of RX 6500 XT level.

The memory and power supply module are also attached with heat-conducting adhesive.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

The PCB board is very short, in fact, it can be made into ITX specifications after being replaced with a single fan radiator.

The design of 4+3 phase power supply circuit is a bit extravagant for RX 6500 XT.

Close-up of power supply circuit.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

The core of Navi 24 has 5.4 billion transistors, and the chip area is only 107 square millimeters, which is nearly 1/3 less than the 158 square millimeters of RX 5500 XT.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

Samsung GDDR6 memory, with a single capacity of 2GB and a frequency of 18GHz. RX 6500 XT has two video memories with a bit width of 64bit, a total capacity of 4GB and a bandwidth of 144 GB/s..

Third, theoretical performance test: the operating frequency is stable at 2875MHz.

The test platform is as follows:

It should have been the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

1、3DMark

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

In the 3DMark test of 2K resolution, the graphics score of sapphire RX 6500 XT Platinum Edition reached 6654 points, the highest core temperature was 60℃, the highest core operating frequency was 2877MHz, the highest fan speed was 1500RPM, and the highest power consumption of GPU was 91W.

In addition, although the highest running frequency of RX 6500 XT is 2877MHz, in fact, it has been running all the GPU test projects of 3DMark at this frequency.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

In the 3DMark Fire Strike Ultra test, the graphics score of RX 6500 XT is 3495, the highest core temperature is 62 degrees, the highest Hot Spot is 91 degrees, the highest core operating frequency is 2874MHz, and the maximum power consumption of graphics card reaches 91W.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

In the test of 3DMark, the sapphire RX 6500 XT is almost the same as RX 580 8GB in both 2K and 4K resolutions, and it is slightly ahead in general.

However, compared with RX 6600 and RX 6600 XT, the gap is very obvious.

2、3DMark Time Spy

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

In the 3DMark Time Spy test with 2K resolution, the graphics score of sapphire RX 6500 XT reaches 4947, the highest core temperature is 63℃, the highest Hot Spot is 94 degrees, the highest power consumption of GPU is 91W, and the highest running frequency of the core is 2876MHz.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

When "castle wolfenstein: New Blood" is tested under extreme image quality, it will always prompt that there is not enough video memory, and forced testing will lead to a sharp drop in frame rate.

This game suggests lowering the picture quality appropriately.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

The data are summarized as follows:

It should have been the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

Of the 15 games we tested, at least 5 of the RX 6500 XT have burst the video memory (marked with yellow) if tested with the highest image quality, so it is suggested to lower the image quality appropriately during the game.

The performance of RX 6500 XT is very close to that of RX 5500 XT, with a difference of 4%, if we don’t consider the flash memory or lower the image quality properly.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

At the resolution of 2K, the 16MB Infinity Cache+4GB GDDR6 video memory is somewhat stretched. In order to obtain a higher frame rate at this resolution, the image quality needs to be further lowered.

V. Overclocking test: Unfortunately, it was limited to 2975MHz.

The RDNA 2 GPU of the previous 7nm process can easily reach 2750~2800MHz through overclocking. Then, after upgrading to the 6nm process, what kind of overclocking capability can the RX 6500 XT achieve!

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

Unfortunately, the BIOS of sapphire RX 6500 XT limits the maximum frequency, which can only be pulled to 2975MHz. The default voltage is 1.2V, which can only be reduced but not increased.

The video memory frequency can be up to 2400MHz, which is equivalent to 19.6GHz, which is no worse than GDDR6X.

In addition, the default GPU power consumption of 90W can be up to 104W.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

Run 3DMark Fire Strike Extreme after overclocking,The operating frequency of RX 6500XT is like a straight line, which has been stable at 2975MHz without any fluctuation.For many years, we have seen such a situation for the first time, and the operating frequency is stable at the set highest frequency.

The previous RDNA 2 GPU was set to 2850MHz, which usually only reached 2700MHz.

Unfortunately, AMD’s BIOS limits the overclocking limit, otherwise it will be extremely easy to break through 3GHz.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

After overclocking, we also conducted a game test. In Tomb Raider: Shadow, the running frequency of RX 6500 XT Platinum Edition was always kept at 2975MHz.

With the increase of frequency, the frame rate of the game has also increased from 59FPS to 62FPS.

VI. Power consumption and temperature test: The running frequency of the game is stable at 2850MHz, and the actual power consumption is lower than the preset TDP.

1. Temperature test

Furmark was used to test the baking machine of RX 6500 XT platinum edition, and the room temperature was 24 degrees.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

Furmark’s parameters are set to 1920*1080 resolution and 0AA. After running for 37 minutes, the temperature of RX 6500 XT is stable at 63 degrees, the Hot Sport temperature is 83 degrees, the GPU power consumption is 90W, and the fan speed is 1277RPM.

In addition, the GPU frequency is as high as 2577MHz when baking. If you have no idea about this number, here are some examples.

The baking frequency of RX 6600 is 1859MHz, and that of RTX 3060 is 1575MHz.

To put it another way, if AMD properly controls the frequency, RX 6500 XT can actually do without external power supply.

2. Power consumption test

We re-tested the power consumption of all graphics cards by using the extremely cool V850 gold medal power supply, and tested the power consumption performance of the whole machine during standby, games and FurMark baking.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

The power consumption of baking machine is closely related to the preset TDP. Basically, when baking machine, the power consumption of baking machine can reach the preset power consumption of GPU.

However, when running games, the GPU core of RX 6500 XT actually does not need to reach 90W power consumption to make the GPU frequency run above 2800MHz.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

For example, when we are running Survival of the Jedi, RX 6500 XT can run stably at 2864MHz* (not overclocked) with only 80W power consumption.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

In Age of Empires 4, only 73W is needed to maintain the operating frequency of 2868MHz.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

In Cyberpunk 2077, only 63W power consumption is needed to stabilize at the frequency of 2870MHz. Of course, there are some factors that cause the GPU to fail to run at full speed and full load.

Therefore, for RX 6500 XT, most games actually don’t need 90W power consumption, and the core frequency can be stabilized above 2850MHz.

VIII. Summary: It could have been the first 3GHz GPU.

The performance of this graphics card did not bring us too many surprises. What really surprised us was that the 6nm process technology could make the frequency and energy efficiency ratio of RDNA 2 GPU reach an unimaginable level.

Summarize the test results as follows:

1, the operation frequency of terror

RX 6500 XT is the GPU with the highest running frequency so far. NVIDIA is dragged down by Samsung’s 8nm process technology, and the frequency of Ampere GPU can’t even exceed 16nm Pascal, which has been stuck at 2GHz for many years.

The acceleration frequency of RX 6000/6700/6800 graphics card with 7nm technology can reach 2600MHz, and the actual operating frequency is also 2200~2400MHz.

After upgrading to 6nm process technology, the acceleration frequency of RX 6500 XT reached a horrible 2825MHz, and even more frightening, its actual operating frequency was even higher than the nominal acceleration frequency.

In most games, the GPU core of RX 6500 XT can be kept at 2850~2875MHz, and rarely below 2800MHz.

RX 6500 XT’s first RDNA 2 GPU with actual operating frequency higher than the nominal acceleration frequency.

2. Game performance

A graphics card with such high running frequency and excellent energy efficiency ratio should not be bad in game performance. However, due to the limitation of 16MB Infinity Cache, 4GB video memory and 64bit width, its actual performance is only equivalent to RX 5500 XT, and some latest 3A masterpieces will have burst video memory.

The best resolution of RX 6500 XT is 1920*1080. When playing 3A games with this graphics card, players are advised to lower the image quality level appropriately, and the game experience will be much better.

Almost became the first 3GHz GPU! AMD RX 6500 XT first evaluation

3. Ray tracing

The RX 6500 XT has 16 built-in Ray Accelerators, which can support real-time ray tracing. We made a little test, and when real-time light tracking is enabled in the game, the frame rate will drop obviously.

However, AMD supports RSR. If you want to experience optical tracking, it is recommended to wait for AMD’s upcoming driver supporting Radeon Super Resolution. RSR can greatly reduce the GPU’s rendering pressure and memory capacity requirements, and then appropriately reduce the image quality. RX 6500 XT will not have much problem running the light-chasing game.

In addition, opening SAM and FSR technologies in some games can also improve the running frame rate to some extent.

4, overclocking

Overclocking is the most regrettable thing, because AMD officially limits the upper frequency limit of BIOS. We have tried several non-public RX 6500 XT graphics cards, and the highest frequency can only be set at 2975MHz.No matter in the game or the test of 3DMark, the overclocked graphics card can always be stable at the running frequency of 2975MHz.

In the future, if someone can unlock the BIOS limit or rewrite the BIOS with tool software, the operating frequency of RX 6500 XT will easily exceed 3GHz.

Perhaps AMD wants to leave the title of the first 3GHz graphics card to the 5nm Radeon 7000.

5. Power consumption

The preset GPU power consumption of RX 6500 XT is 90W, but in fact, in most games, 90W power consumption is not needed at all to make the GPU fully loaded and maintain the running frequency of 2850MHz+.

On the i9-12900K test platform, the power consumption of the whole machine is less than 200W when the RX 6500 XT single-bakes the GPU. If it is matched with the processor of Ruilong 5 5600X or i5-12400, the power consumption of the whole machine can be controlled within 300W even if it is double-bakes.

When installed, a power supply with rated power consumption of 350W can meet the demand.

6nm has been terrible, and now we are very much looking forward to what kind of subversion Radeon 7000 GPU with TSMC’s 5nm process can bring!

The Ultimate Winner of the World Cup and the "Magic" of Generative Artificial Intelligence

The ultimate winner of the World Cup is transnational capital.
Recently, Majeed Malhas analyzed various comments around the World Cup in jacobin. Western commentators have reason to criticize the political authoritarianism of Qatar, the host country, and the harsh working conditions before the competition. In response, critics in the post-colonial world put forward reasonable views on the hypocrisy of the West. After all, the colonial superpower laid the foundation for the disaster in Qatar. Although each side has put forward reasonable views, the resulting dialogue is not completely fruitful. The political discussion around Qatar in 2022 shows that the narrative of "clash of civilizations" continues to dominate the global political imagination, although the modern reality is that transnational capital, whether eastern or western, is ruling the world and has the ability to bring the government to its knees. While people are busy blaming, international companies are plundering.
On December 15th, 2022, local time, Doha, Qatar, the city scenery of Doha on the eve of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 finals was at a glance.
Qatar, a small oil-rich country, won the bid to host this year’s World Cup under blatant corruption. At the beginning, the country had almost no sports infrastructure, but it launched a large-scale project of $220 billion to host the most watched TV event in the world. Qatar’s economy has long relied on migrant workers from all walks of life, and their number has increased by more than 40% since they won the bid. Today, only 11.6% of the country’s 2.7 million residents are Qatari nationals. Unstable immigrants, mainly from Southeast Asia, have increased greatly, and they are hired to do manual labor in order to build almost non-existent infrastructure by 2022.
Although hundreds of billions of dollars have been invested, the working conditions of these manual workers have always been blatant exploitation. Migrant workers in Qatar are faced with life-threatening working environment, unsafe living conditions, delayed and insignificant payments, withholding passports, and threats of violence. They are engaged in manual labor under the scorching sun in the Gulf. Since Qatar won the bid for the World Cup, 6,751 migrant workers have died.
Although human rights groups and journalists have been documenting the rampant exploitation of migrant workers in Qatar for ten years before the 2022 World Cup, mainstream western media only began to emphasize these injustices one month before the game-tickets have been bought, hotels have been fully booked, and all infrastructure has been completed. The most outspoken western media is the BBC, which refused to broadcast the opening ceremony of the competition and chose to broadcast a round table condemning Qatar’s human rights record.
The BBC’s criticism of Qatar is completely correct. At the same time, they did not recognize the role of British colonial heritage in establishing exploitative working conditions, which existed in Qatar long before the World Cup. Britain intervened in a material and systematic way, which continued to benefit the Qatari monarchy and the global free market dominated by transnational (but mainly western) capital.
In Qatar and the wider Middle East, the core of the systematic exploitation of workers in Southeast Asia is the kafala (sponsorship) system, which makes employers who sponsor migrant workers’ visas exempt from the labor laws that protect Qatari nationals. Migrant workers have no right to find new jobs, to form trade unions or even to travel.
The modern Kafala system can be traced back to a relatively unknown colonial bureaucrat, charles bell Belgrave. After the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in World War I, modern Qatar and the wider Arabian Gulf were colonized by Britain. Belgrave is a British veteran who participated in the war. In 1926, he was appointed as an adviser to the tribal monarch who later became modern Bahrain to help build a modern nation-state with a normal government bureaucracy.
The British administration of the post-Ottoman Middle East relied on "protectorate" or "mandated ruling country" rather than colony, with the intention of ensuring the long-term interests of Britain in the region. Foreseeing that direct colonial rule after the war would eventually be unsustainable, Britain wanted to create a feasible structure for a national government that was friendly to the West and consistent with the free market.
Long before the discovery of oil, Bahrain and its surrounding areas were coastal nomadic societies, which revolved around fishing and pearl picking. The emergence of the border defined by colonialism has brought obstacles to the industry in this region, which relies on cross-sea trade and the free flow of labor, but is now restricted by new concepts such as passports and visas.
In order to solve this problem, Belgrave compiled the first version of the modern Kafala system, which soon spread to other newly established governments in the region. In the end, this enabled Bahrain, Qatar, Oman and other Gulf countries to facilitate labor migration and exploitation from Southeast Asia.
Kafala system was generally unpopular in Bahrain, and Belgrave finally resigned in 1957 amid protests. However, after Belgrave left, and after Britain gave up its rule in the Gulf region in 1960s and 1970s, this system still existed. It was this system designed by Britain that led to the deaths of thousands of migrant workers in Qatar before the World Cup. As this origin story shows, the problem is much bigger than the behavior of a barbaric eastern country, and it is difficult for the western hands to be clean.
Kafala system is just one of many modern exploitative labor systems in the so-called "third world", which can be traced back to western colonial rule. Broadly speaking, the consumption lifestyle enjoyed by many people in the west is realized by outsourcing extreme economic exploitation to post-colonial countries with social oppression.
Therefore, the non-historical accusations made by the West against Qatar were ridiculed as hypocrisy by many people in the post-colonial world, and some commentators quickly pointed out the shortcomings of Western governments in solving their own working conditions, not to mention racism, misogyny and homophobia in their own countries.
These critics have reasonable views, just like the critics of Qatar itself. But the dialogue is doomed to be fruitless in the end. The West blames the backwardness of the East, and the East blames the hypocrisy of the West, which is endless. This kind of discourse relies on the reductive differences between the East and the West, and fails to grasp the common interests of western and eastern governments and companies in maintaining the system of exploitation and social oppression.
Qatar, separated from Iran by a wall, is the largest military base of the United States in the Middle East. It is no coincidence that Biden’s administration gave the green light to sell $1 billion in weapons to Qatar during the halftime of the high-risk competition between Iran and the United States. This kind of behavior is predictable: it is not strange for the United States to turn a blind eye to the behavior of its oil-rich allies in the Gulf and criticize its enemies for doing the same.
European governments and enterprises have also established profitable relations with Qatar. In fact, on December 11th, four members of the European Parliament were accused of accepting bribes from Qatari officials to influence policy decisions.
For western sponsors, sportswear companies, sports broadcasting companies and other multinational enterprises, they have made a lot of profits from the workers who have worked hard to prepare for this event, which is rarely mentioned by critics and partisans. In Qatar’s 2022 dispute, the only western organization that was reasonably criticized was FIFA, a non-enterprise or government entity. Like western governments, western enterprises are largely left to their own devices.
FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022’s narrative of "clash of civilizations" in 2022 has distracted people from the biggest problem that plagues the exploited migrant workers in the Middle East and the world, that is, global neoliberal capitalism. The real winners of the World Cup are transnational capital, whether in the West or Qatar, while the real losers are exploited migrant workers and politically suppressed citizens of Qatar and the post-colonial Middle East.
Both sides’ attention to the imaginary savage eastern countries or hypocritical western countries fails to explain the financialization and transnational nature of capitalism in the 21st century, and how it has changed the global political landscape-often combining the East and the West to benefit from the exploited global poor.
Another author, Paul Fogarty, also wrote in jacobin that this year’s World Cup is the epitome of the company taking over football.
Vague slogans are the common language of modern football, which cover up those morally questionable people who run football and profit from it. For example, one of the major English advertisements that have been playing during this World Cup is the advertisement of Hyundai, a Korean automobile manufacturer.
The advertisement combines the rapidly expanding music with the vast mountain scenery and the illusion of racial harmony and universal brotherhood. Steven Gerrard, a former Liverpool captain, told people that sustainable development is the "century goal" of mankind, and his tone was ridiculously cold.
What’s even more ridiculous is that Steven Gerrard’s former English teammate David Beckham directly equates the dreams of young working-class footballers with those of the extremely wealthy adults in Qatar’s bid to host the World Cup. Beckham’s willingness to say these words is easy to explain. It is said that he earned $150 million as an ambassador.
In the author’s view, this morally corrupt World Cup held in Qatar is the latest stage of the degeneration of modern football. Of course, people have been playing football since ancient times, but the British Football Association officially compiled the rules in 1882. Football club has become a source of pride for the local working class, and it is also a simple way to escape on Saturday afternoon. Today, the top clubs in Europe have become the playthings of the super-rich, making football farther and farther away from its popular foundation.
The monarchs in the Gulf region bought three sleeping giants in European competitions, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester City and Newcastle United. These clubs can now control huge amounts of money.
Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain have dominated their domestic leagues in recent years, while Newcastle was only controlled by Saudi Arabia more than a year ago, so it is in the early stage of competing for world hegemony. There seems to be no doubt that all three national clubs are for long-term development. Qatar won the right to host the 2022 World Cup in 2010 and reached an agreement to acquire Paris Saint-Germain six months later. Prior to this, the bid for the World Cup had been planned for many years. Billions have been invested, and countless billions of investments are coming.
When discussing the influence of these clubs on the competition structure, journalists often quote euphemistic phrases such as "soft power" and "sports washing" (used to describe the practice of individuals, groups, companies or governments using sports to improve their reputation damaged by improper behavior, which can be achieved by holding sports events, buying or sponsoring sports teams or participating in sports as a form of publicity). These terms conceal the level of financial fraud, which is unparalleled in modern games as far as Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City are concerned. But UEFA, the European governing body, responded with only the lightest touch of supervision.
Facts have proved that Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City are particularly good at using creative accounting methods to avoid the restrictions on club expenses. The huge "consultant" fee paid to Roberto Mancini, the former head coach of Manchester City, is just one example. Their strategies also include winning praise for reviving dilapidated areas (or investing in real estate, as others say), reaching inflated sponsorship agreements with state institutions, and hiring a team of insanely high lawyers when the football authorities try to impose any form of sanctions on them.
This means that they can diversify their financial interests to meet the arrival of the post-oil era.
Although FIFA and David Beckham have protested feebly that the World Cup can bring a more open society, we only need to look at the recent Russian anti-LGBQT+ legislation to find evidence to the contrary. In view of Qatar’s official World Cup ambassador’s recent declaration that homosexuality is a "mental injury", it seems that journalists should continue to pay attention to this country after playing the last ball on Sunday night.
Bill Shankly’s most famous quip implies that football is not a matter of life and death, but a matter "much more important than this". It is impossible for him to imagine that thousands of people will die in the stadium built for the World Cup, or allow a series of broken promises and cynical political activities, all of which revolve around Qatar in 2022.
"Magic" of Generative Artificial Intelligence
At the moment when the "magic sense" of science and technology is gradually fading, the recent progress in the field of generative AI has aroused widespread and enthusiastic attention. Both the paintings generated by the artificial intelligence image generator DALL-E 2 for free and the chat content generated by the artificial intelligence chat robot ChatGPT have become the objects that people compete to share on social networks. In the midst of a thriving scene, some people have expressed various concerns about this technology. The article "Money Will Kill ChatGPT’s Magic" recently published by Atlantic Monthly thinks that the problem is that these technologies will eventually be used for profit-making purposes.
The article pointed out that ChatGPT is currently free, but Sam Altman, CEO of its development company OpenAI, said, "We will have to monetize it at some point, and the calculation cost is painfully expensive." This company, which is expected to earn US$ 200 million in 2023, is not a charity. Although it was started as a non-profit organization in 2015, it abandoned this status more than three years later and set up a "capped profit" research laboratory supervised by a non-profit board. The company’s supporters have agreed to make no more than 100 times the profit-if your expectation is that its products will take over the global economy one day, this is obviously insignificant. ) Microsoft has injected $1 billion into the company, and it is conceivable that Clippy driven by ChatGPT will regain its vitality.
Offering free trials is an excellent marketing strategy. It is reported that within a few weeks after the re-release, more than 1 million users have used ChatGPT, and OpenAI paid for it. Today, OpenAI is becoming the most successful consumer-oriented artificial intelligence company, just as Netflix is to streaming video and Google is to search, OpenAI may become the leader of deep learning. David Karpf, the author of this article and an associate professor in the School of Media and Public Affairs at George Washington University, asked the question: What will happen to the use of these tools when they start to generate profits instead of losses? Will it become a paid subscription product, or will it run advertisements, or will it provide power for new companies that will replace existing industries at lower costs?
Karpf thinks that we can learn from the development track of the early Internet. In his course "History of Digital Future", he will show students the film Hyperland in the 1990s. This "fantasy documentary" depicts a journey to the future being created by multimedia technology experts at that time. In the 1990s, technical experts are committed to developing a set of new tools that will subvert media and education: replacing "linear and non-interactive TV" with customizable and interactive "software agents". This sounds a lot like the algorithm recommendation engine and news subscription that define our digital experience today. The key difference is that the software agents in the film are controlled and customized by the users themselves, while today’s algorithms cater to the needs and interests of the companies that develop and deploy them. Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok all try to increase the time you spend on their websites through algorithms. They are designed to serve the interests of the platform rather than the public. As Adrienne LaFrance, executive editor of Atlantic magazine, said, the result is that the architecture of modern network is similar to a doomsday machine.
The article further points out that the future of generative artificial intelligence seems to be an unexplored field, but in fact it is more like a trail in disrepair. This path is not clearly marked, but it has been walked by many people. To put it bluntly, we will live in a future that will provide investors with the greatest return. Now it’s best to stop imagining the possible achievements of tools like ChatGPT when they are used freely and universally, and instead think about which potential uses will maximize the benefits. New markets will emerge over time. For example, in 1998, Google set off a revolution in online search, but at that time, leading online search could not make a lot of money. This technology first needed to become efficient enough to attract people. Since then, Google launched Adwords, an advertising service platform in 2001, and became one of the most profitable companies in history in the following years.
In Karpf’s view, this is the most divorced from reality in the hype of ChatGPT. If history is used as a guide, then tools like ChatGPT will mostly create repercussions in existing industries, rather than subverting them through direct competition. The long-term trend shows that new technologies tend to aggravate instability. Large, high-yield industries usually resist new entrants until they incorporate new technologies into existing workflows. This is the old road we have traveled. In 1993, Michael Crichton declared that The New York Times would be buried within ten years, and it would be replaced by a software agent that provided timely, relevant and personalized news to consumers who were willing to pay. At the end of 2000′ s, massive open online courses were regarded as the emissary of higher education, because from then on, you can watch MIT professors attend classes on laptops and get certificates through online exams without paying tuition fees.
Technical experts often claim that medical care, education and other fields are about to be destroyed, not because these industries are particularly vulnerable to new technologies, but because they are major sectors in the economy. DALL-E 2 may be a great destruction for freelance graphic designers, because the industry is too small and has not been organized to protect itself. The American Bar Association and the health care industry are much more efficient in setting up barriers to entry. ChatGPT will not be the end of the university, but it may be the end of the college homework ghostwriting business; It will not be the end of The New York Times, but it may become another obstacle to the reconstruction of local news. Industries that are connected by freelance piecework may be in big trouble. Experience shows that the more unstable the industry, the greater the risk of being destroyed.
Atman himself imagined in an article entitled "Moore’s Law for Everything" in 2021 that in the near future, professionals in the medical and legal fields will be replaced by artificial intelligence tools: "Within five years, computer programs that can think can read legal documents and give medical advice … We can imagine that artificial intelligence doctors can diagnose health problems better than humans, and artificial intelligence teachers may accurately judge and explain students’ incomprehension. These promises sound very similar to the excitement caused by IBM’s supercomputer Watson more than 10 years ago. In 2011, Watson defeated Ken Jennings in the American quiz show Jeopardy, which set off a wave of speculation that a new era of "big data" had arrived. Watson is praised as a symbol of extensive social change, which will have a fundamental impact on medical care, finance, academics and law. Then the successful business case never appeared. Ten years later, The New York Times reported that Watson had been quietly used for smaller purposes.
Karpf pointed out that the problem with atman’s idea is that even if the computer program can provide accurate medical advice, it still can’t prescribe drugs, make an appointment for radiological examination, or submit documents to persuade insurance companies to pay for it. Medical expenses in the United States are not directly driven by doctors’ salaries. Similarly, the soaring cost of higher education is not driven by the salary increase of professors. He cited the public relations industry as an example, saying that ChatGPT is best at producing cliches, and with a little training, it can find words that are often combined. Most marketing materials are predictable, especially suitable for programs like ChatGPT. But even so, it is hard to imagine that any senior executive would convey such cost-saving measures to the board of directors and shareholders, that is, let a neural network take charge of the company’s advertising work. More likely, ChatGPT will be incorporated into the existing company, so that it can employ fewer employees in the production process, but still charge the original fee.
There are still some questions to be answered, such as how the old and new regulations will affect the development of artificial intelligence.
