The list of insomnia in milk tea attracts attention, and Xicha reveals the secret of caffeine in tea.

  In the past beginning of autumn, the "first cup of milk tea in autumn" was once again screened. According to the data of Meituan, on the same day in beginning of autumn, Meituan’s take-out platform sold over 53 million drinks, up 34% year-on-year, and the sales of 10 brands exceeded one million drinks.

  Greeting beginning of autumn with milk tea is a unique sense of ceremony for a new generation of young people, but after the milk tea carnival, some people began to regret it a little. The reason is that, in the words of netizens, "the first cup of milk tea in autumn became the first insomnia in autumn".

  In Little Red Book, as of August 13th, there were more than 650,000 notes on the topic # Insomnia after drinking the first cup of milk tea in autumn # and as many as 380,000 notes on the topic #. Many netizens vomited in the middle of the night, "Tea is drunk at nine o’clock, and people haven’t slept until six o’clock", "I like drinking milk tea and staying up all night" and "Insomnia comes here to gather".

  What puzzles many consumers is: Why is milk tea so refreshing?

  The answer is that caffeine is naturally contained in tea, so caffeine is generally found in tea drinks containing tea. How much caffeine does a cup of milk tea contain? When can drinking milk tea easily lead to insomnia?

Is drinking milk tea easy to lose sleep?

"Milk tea insomnia list" attracts attention

  Before "Caffeine in Milk Tea" caused concern, some netizens spontaneously started the "Milk Tea Insomnia Ranking" on social platforms. Because it is a subjective evaluation, the evaluation dimensions adopted by netizens mainly lie in insomnia times and insomnia time. For example, a certain milk tea drinks insomnia every time, a certain milk tea starts to feel refreshed in the afternoon, and a certain milk tea prolongs the sleep time by two or three hours … Some netizens spontaneously started the "Insomnia Milk Tea Collection".

  Behind these competing "folk lists" is that with the increasing consumption of tea and gradually becoming a part of daily life, people are paying more and more attention to insomnia caused by drinking milk tea. At the same time, because the "factors" that cause insomnia in tea are not clear, consumers can only "cross the river by feeling the stones" and use their bodies to do tests.

  In November last year, Bawang Tea Ji announced the caffeine content of some of her drinks. Subsequently, the caffeine content of her drinks exceeded that of Red Bull drinks, which caused a heated discussion. Red Bull Beverage, which claims to relieve fatigue, contains about 75mg (mg) of caffeine in 500ml of two cans, while the caffeine content in Boya Juexian, a 580ml classic drink of Bawang Chaji, is about 166mg. In this regard, some netizens commented that "it is the first time to know that milk tea contains caffeine content".

  In May of this year, the topic of "Wan Li Mulan, whose netizens dominate Wang Chaji, couldn’t sleep after drinking" was rushed.The hot search list ranked first, and the reading volume of the topic exceeded 120 million. Bawang Chaji responded that the caffeine content of Wan Li Mulan is 235mg, which is equivalent to a cup of latte of the same specification.

  In fact, many consumers don’t know that tea contains caffeine. According to the Survey on Consumers’ Cognition and Attitude towards Caffeine in China (2023) released by Kexin Food and Health Information Exchange Center in September 2023, 52.15% of the respondents did not know that tea contained caffeine. However, according to the countryThe dietary caffeine intake level of China residents and its risk assessment issued by the Risk Assessment Center in May 2021. In China, for adult consumers, the highest contribution rate of caffeine intake is tea, tea beverage, milk tea and coffee.

  Because tea contains caffeine, drinks containing tea will inevitably contain caffeine. However, the caffeine content of different drinks still varies greatly.

  From the "Collection of Insomnia Milk Tea", "Collection of Insomnia Milk Tea" and "List of Insomnia Milk Tea" spontaneously produced by netizens, it can be seen that consumers are not only eager to know the specific content of caffeine in milk tea, but also hope to know in a simpler and more intuitive way: How strong is a cup of milk tea? Is it easy to cause insomnia? Is it suitable for drinking? What time is suitable for drinking? To this end, some tea brands decided to respond to the demand.

The Secret of Caffeine in Milk Tea

Hi Tea Industry is the first to announce the "Caffeine Traffic Light" health label.

More than half of decaffeinated and labeled as "green light" drinks

  On August 15th, Xicha fully publicized the caffeine content of the ready-made drinks currently on sale in WeChat applet, online store and cup labeling. From August 15th to 17th, consumers who buy any products of Hi-Tea can also receive a complimentary caffeine traffic light identification card with the order.

  As a new brand of tea brewed with original leaf tea, the tea soup in hi-tea drinks naturally contains caffeine.According to the caffeine content, Xicha classifies the drinks into four levels: decaffeinated, green, yellow and red, where green represents caffeine content < 50mg/ cup, yellow represents caffeine content 50-100mg/ cup and red represents caffeine content > 100mg/ cup.

  The grading results show that,Among the ready-made drinks currently sold in all stores of Xicha, there are 19 products with caffeine-free and caffeine content marked as "green light", accounting for about 53%., including most popular fruit tea products such as succulent grapes, succulent peaches and plums, succulent mangmangmang, and two 0-caffeine drinks, namely roasted brown sugar bobo milk and brown sugar bobo real milk; There are 8 products with caffeine content labeled as "yellow light", accounting for about 22%, including tea products such as Zhizhi Lvyan tea queen and pure Lvyan tea queen, and a small number of fruit tea products such as Qingti light lemon tea. There are 9 products with caffeine content marked as "red light", accounting for 25%, including American coffee drinks, lattes and some light milk tea products. The caffeine content of "red light" drinks is mostly within 125mg/ cup, and the highest caffeine content is 175.5mg/ cup.

  In addition to helping consumers clearly understand the caffeine content of drinks through the "traffic light", Xicha also provides guidance on the recommended drinking time of each drink according to the principle of caffeine metabolism in human body and related research.Products with caffeine content marked as "red light" are recommended to be drunk before afternoon; "Yellow light" products are recommended to be drunk before evening; "Green light" products can be easily enjoyed anytime and anywhere; The two "0 Caffeine" products can be drunk even at night.

  That is to say, consumers who are afraid of insomnia and are prone to insomnia should "brake" when they encounter "red light" products at night; When you encounter a "green light" product, you can "walk freely" without fear.

  This drinking time guide is similar to the "milk tea insomnia list" made by netizens spontaneously, but the evaluation by netizens is subjective, because everyone’s physical condition and caffeine tolerance are very different, which leads to the evaluation list made from this. It can’t really and objectively feedback the actual caffeine content of drinks. However, the "Caffeine Traffic Light" logo and the suggested drinking time guide on the line after the evaluation by authoritative organizations are more objective, simple and clear, and the applicability is more universal, which reduces the difficulty for consumers to identify and choose caffeine drinks.

The Secret of Caffeine in Milk Tea

Tea becomes high-frequency consumer goods

Consumers are prone to excessive caffeine intake.

  On the daily intake of caffeine, at present, the Chinese government has not issued the recommended standard, nor has it issued relevant laws and regulations on the labeling of caffeine content in freshly made tea.

  In the international market, the recommended intake of caffeine is 300-400mg per day for adults. According to the Scientific Opinions on Caffeine Safety issued by the European Bureau in May 2015, the daily caffeine intake of children is below 3mg/kg, that of pregnant/lactating women is below 200mg, and that of adults (non-pregnant women) is below 400mg. A single intake of 200mg or less will generally not bring safety problems to healthy adults; The US Food and Drug Administration suggested that the intake of 400mg of caffeine for healthy adults is safe, but advised pregnant women to "try not to eat or eat less caffeinated foods and drugs".

  Excessive caffeine intake does have an impact on the human body. Ceng Ting, an attending physician in the Clinical Nutrition Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, said that excessive caffeine intake will induce symptoms such as accelerated heart rate and palpitations, and it will also have a certain impact on the nervous system. It may also extend the time required to fall asleep; Long-term excessive intake can also cause an increase in blood pressure and blood sugar. Many studies have shown that it is relatively safe for most adults to consume less than 400 mg of caffeine a day, while those who are lighter or special people should choose according to their adaptability. For example, people with caffeine intolerance, pregnant women, menstruating women, children, patients with gastric ulcer/gastritis, etc., should consume less products containing caffeine.

  However, with the increasing frequency of tea consumption, people’s caffeine intake may increase unconsciously. Last year, the research teams of Tsinghua University and Central University of Finance and Economics conducted a survey on 5,281 college students in Beijing. The results showed that 21.3% of the respondents drank 1 cup of milk tea per week, 21.3% drank 2-3 cups of milk tea per week and 20.6% drank 4-6 cups per week. Along with the high frequency of milk tea consumption, the discussion about "drinking milk tea for insomnia and palpitations" has also become a hot topic many times.

  Research on Tsinghua University and Central University of Finance and Economics

  In order to avoid drinking milk tea for a while and regretting after drinking milk tea, it is particularly important to master the specific caffeine content of each drink and take caffeine scientifically and reasonably to avoid its damage to the body, especially to sleep. Previously, Ding Guanghong, a representative of the National People’s Congress, had proposed grading the caffeine content in beverages. For prepackaged and bottled beverages, caffeine content should be added to the nutritional composition list of bottled beverages containing caffeine, and beverages with caffeine content exceeding 40mg should be marked; For take-away street drinking shops, caffeine labels can be affixed to menus and take-away cups.

  Considering the universal tolerance of Chinese people to caffeine and the frequency of drinking, Xicha marked the caffeine content of its drinks, and classified drinks with a content greater than 100mg as "red light" drinks, which brought stricter standards. At the same time, under the psychological demand that consumers are generally afraid of insomnia when drinking milk tea, Xicha further provides guidance on the recommended drinking time of each drink according to the principle of caffeine metabolism in human body.

  This is undoubtedly a pioneering move in the domestic tea industry. In this regard, Kai Zhong, director of Kexin Food and Health Information Exchange Center, believes that there is no mandatory labeling requirement for caffeine in existing drinks in China at present, and it is worthy of recognition that enterprises are willing to take the initiative to label it, which will not only improve consumers’ right to know, but also help them to arrange their diet and consumption rationally.

The Secret of Caffeine in Milk Tea

Visualization, health and standardization

Xicha promotes the continuous upgrading of tea industry.

  With the gradual popularization of health concept and the rise of health awareness, consumers are now paying more and more attention to the ingredient list and ingredients of tea. As one of the head brands of new tea, hi-tea dares to be the first and has made many pioneering moves in promoting the health, transparency and standardization of drinks.

  In October, 2023, Xicha disclosed the formula raw materials, nutritional components and traceability information of the products on sale, and simultaneously announced the main nutritional components of the drinks on sale, including calories, protein, trans fatty acids, fats, carbohydrates, etc. After that, "formula disclosure" has become a "standard" for all products of Xicha.

picture

  At present, there is no mandatory regulation on the labeling of ready-made and ready-to-sell foods in China. Judging from the existing policies and regulations, whether or not to disclose the formula information depends more on the new tea brand’s own considerations, and the extent to which the formula information is disclosed still depends mainly on the independent decision of the enterprise. Under the leading role of Xicha, other brands in the industry have followed suit.

  On the basis of product transparency, Xicha continues to improve product quality and promote healthy drinks. In March of this year, Xicha and Pamela, a global top-stream fitness blogger, launched a series of products with "light burden recommendation". After that, Xicha also launched an all-round sugar control action. Since May 2024, Xicha has gradually launched a free "true zero calorie sugar" for fruit tea products, and launched a "+slow sugar succulent grape" made of low GI sugar raw materials, bringing more healthy product choices to consumers.

  In July, 2024, Xicha also issued the enterprise standard of "Fresh Tea Drinks" based on "four truths and seven zeros". "Four truths and seven zeros" means that the fresh tea must be made of "real tea, real milk, real fruit and real sugar", and the products meet the requirements of "0 creamer, 0 essence, 0 fructose syrup, 0 non-dairy creamer and 0 hydrogenated vegetable oil.

picture

  Compared with other head tea brands, this standard is more detailed and strict, and it is called the strictest healthy tea standard in the industry. In this regard, some insiders pointed out that the standard of hi-tea has the role of a weather vane, which will drive other tea brands to gradually follow up and help promote the upgrading and development of the tea industry.

  The latest caffeine "traffic light" grading label and drinking time guide are another pioneering move of tea-loving. Xicha hopes that through the active disclosure of its own product formula, it will bring consumers clearer tea drinking guidelines, continuously promote the healthy upgrading and iteration of products, and continuously promote the healthy level of tea products.

The kebabs with Dai flavor in Xishuangbanna must be tasted!

Source: Le Tu Travel Network and columnist Mo Xiaohe

It will basically take a whole day to fly to Banna in Changchun, but it is also much faster than the 61 hours by train at that time. After all, it is from one end of the motherland to the other, and it arrived in the night, but it regained its vitality at the moment of landing, put down its luggage and washed away the dust, and it appeared on the crowded street of Binjiang Night Market. When you come to Xishuangbanna, you must not miss the wonderful nightlife here, visiting the night market and eating barbecue.

It’s the first time to try Dai barbecue, which is very different from Lijiang barbecue, especially with the aftertaste of chicken bean jelly. In Dai barbecue, there are many kinds of fish, which are especially tender and delicious. At the beginning, I didn’t dare to order too many pieces of string. When serving, it was not a string, but a plate. It seems that the plate is not big, and I was full before I ate it. Potato chips, grilled fish and eggplant.

In Binjiang Night Market, a particularly interesting thing happened. Standing in front of rows of barbecue stalls, I didn’t really know what to choose, so I ordered a restaurant at random. But just as I stepped inside, there was already a table of guests who repeatedly told me, "Don’t come to this restaurant to eat, our order hasn’t come up yet … Don’t come to this restaurant …" I went to the next door with a skeptical step, and the boss patiently and carefully followed. What are the flavors, and many people who are wrapped up and can’t see the ingredients inside also explained them to me one by one, until we all got up and left, and glanced at the next door. I am glad that the table was in a mess.

Binjiang night market is more lively in a circle of border trading market. It takes about an hour to get back to the starting booth while walking. There are a wide range of border commodities, cigarettes, ornaments and clothes. Of course, there are many beads and jade here. Gadgets are my favorite. There are many small bars outside the night market square. Locals love to come here. It takes about 30 yuan to take a taxi back to the hotel from here ~

Gaozhuang Night Market on the other side of the city is not my dish. The business atmosphere here is rich, and it is full of meaning for tourists. I don’t like those uniform roads and buildings with almost the same decoration style. The Banna style I want to find should be in the streets and lanes, but in the ordinary life of the Dai people.

Another must-taste of Dai flavor is roast chicken, so I actually came to Gaozhuang Night Market to eat roast chicken. I was not surprised when I heard the word roast chicken mentioned by my friends. I just thought that it might be a chicken different from the previous practice. After all, there are many nationalities in China, and 56 practices are not unusual. However, as soon as I stepped into the store, I was shocked by this battle. The stacked bamboo plates and the flying kitchen knives never stopped for a moment. The long carbon stove, There are about a hundred chickens with two rows of plucked hair on them, bubbling with oil by the charcoal fire. Workers turn over their faces from time to time, and there are long bamboo sticks with 50 chicken legs and feet on them, and fresh chicken on one side is being tied with sticks …

I thought this was all, but it wasn’t. Many small dishes with Dai flavor were served first and surrounded the table. There were pineapple rice, bean jelly, Baba, rice noodles, grilled fish and many others I couldn’t name, and the main event was always the last one, which was the delicious roast chicken.

There is a striking Pagoda in Gaozhuang Night Market. From day to night, hot air balloons are constantly put into the air, and there are an endless stream of tourists. No one is allowed to stand under the hot air balloon. Except the person who grasps the direction, I have also chatted with him and asked him what is in the Pagoda. He said with a smile that there is nothing in it, and there is no need to go in to pay homage. Just when I was startled, he said, how can there be a real pagoda every day?

From January to November, the ex-factory price of industrial producers decreased by 0.3% year-on-year, and the purchase price of industrial producers decreased by 0.7%.

Seven, import and export from down to up, to further optimize the trade structure.

In November, the total import and export of goods was 2,861.4 billion yuan, up 1.8% year-on-year, down 0.4% last month. Among them, the export was 1,567.8 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1.3%; Imports reached 1,293.6 billion yuan, up 2.5%. Import and export balance, with a trade surplus of 274.2 billion yuan. From January to November, the total import and export volume of goods was 28,504.8 billion yuan, an increase of 2.4%. Among them, exports reached 15.555 billion yuan, up by 4.5%; Imports were 12,949.8 billion yuan, which was the same as that of the same period last year. The trade structure continued to be optimized. The import and export of general trade increased by 4.8%, accounting for 59.2% of the total import and export, up by 1.4 percentage points over the same period of last year. The import and export of private enterprises increased by 10.4%, accounting for 42.5% of the total import and export, an increase of 3.1 percentage points over the same period of last year. Industrial enterprises above designated size realized export delivery value of 11,231.1 billion yuan, up 1.5% year-on-year.

At the same time, it should be noted that the current international environment is unstable and uncertain, the world economic and trade growth continues to slow down, and the downward pressure on the domestic economy is still relatively large. In the next stage, we should fully implement the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the Second, Third and Fourth Plenary Sessions of the 19th National Congress, implement the decision-making arrangements of the Central Economic Work Conference, closely follow the goal and task of building a well-off society in an all-round way, adhere to the general tone of striving for progress while maintaining stability, adhere to the new development concept, adhere to the supply-side structural reform as the main line, and take reform and opening up as the driving force to accelerate the construction of a modern economic system. We will do a good job of "six stabilities" in an all-round way, make overall plans to promote steady growth, promote reform, adjust the structure, benefit people’s livelihood, prevent risks, ensure stability, keep the economy running in a reasonable range, and promote high-quality development. Thank you.

Attack Yan Chun:

Thank you for your introduction. Let’s enter the question-and-answer session. Please inform your news organization before asking questions.

CCTV reporter from the Central Radio and Television General Station:

Judging from your introduction just now, the main index data in November was better than expected. What is the reason? How do you evaluate the performance of economic operation in November? Thank you.

Fu Linghui:

Thank you for your question. In November, under the influence of a series of policies and the joint efforts of the whole country, the economic operation showed positive changes, and the overall stable and steady economic operation was further manifested. From the main indicators, it can be summarized into the following characteristics: first, "two accelerations", second, "two stabilities" and third, "two improvements".

Two accelerations: First, the growth of industry and service industry accelerated. Judging from the situation just introduced, the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 6.2% year-on-year in November, 1.5 percentage points faster than last month. From the industry point of view, the growth rate of 33 of the 41 major industries is faster than that of last month, accounting for about 80% of all industries. From the perspective of major products, more than 60% of the more than 500 major industrial products are faster than last month. In November, the service industry production index increased by 6.8%, 0.2 percentage points faster than last month, and the growth of most service industries also accelerated than last month. Second, the market sales accelerated. In November, the total retail sales of social consumer goods increased by 8% year-on-year, 0.8 percentage points faster than last month. Among the 18 categories of goods in statistics, 14 categories accelerated compared with last month, accounting for more than 70% of the total. The acceleration of market sales has a great relationship with the growth of online retail in November. The growth rate of online retail in November was significantly faster than that of last month, which played a positive role in stimulating the growth of total retail sales of consumer goods in that month.

Two stabilities: First, the employment situation remains stable. In the first 11 months, the number of new jobs in cities and towns reached 12.79 million, and the expected target for the whole year has been fulfilled ahead of schedule. From the perspective of the whole year, the level of new employment is expected to reach more than 13 million, which will be 13 million for seven consecutive years, which is very difficult. Judging from the survey unemployment rate, the national urban survey unemployment rate in November was 5.1%, which was the same as last month. Among them, the survey unemployment rate of employed people aged 25 to 59 was 4.6%, which was also the same as last month, and employment remained stable. Second, the growth of foreign trade and foreign investment remained stable. In the first 11 months, the total import and export volume increased by 2.4%, of which the export volume increased by 4.5%, the total import and export volume with major trading partners such as the European Union increased by 7.7%, the total import and export volume with ASEAN countries increased by 12.7%, and the import and export volume with countries along the "Belt and Road" increased by 9.9%. The situation of foreign trade growth was stable. From the perspective of foreign investment, the actual utilization of foreign capital in the first 11 months increased by 6% year-on-year, of which the utilization of foreign capital in high-tech industries increased by nearly 30%, and foreign trade remained stable.

Two improvements: First, the economic structure continues to improve. We also see that domestic demand continues to increase the economic growth, and the growth rate of both investment and market sales is faster than that of exports. In domestic demand, the growth of consumption continues to be faster than that of investment, and the structure of domestic demand continues to be optimized. From the perspective of industrial structure, the high-tech industry and equipment manufacturing industry in the industry grew by 8.9% and 8.5% respectively in the month, which were obviously faster than the growth of industries above designated size; Among the service industries, modern service industries, such as information technology, software transmission, business and leasing services, are growing faster than the production index of all service industries. This is an improvement in the economic structure. Second, market expectations are improving. In November, the index of manufacturing PMI was 50.2%, up 0.9 percentage points from last month, and it rose for the first time after falling below the critical point for several months, reaching above threshold. The PMI of non-manufacturing industry is 54.4%, and the PMI of service industry is 53.5%, both of which are obviously higher than last month.

Judging from these circumstances, the economic operation has maintained a generally stable and steady development trend. This fully shows that under the complicated and severe international environment, China’s economy does have strong resilience, potential and room for maneuver, and it also shows that the basic trend of China’s economic stability and long-term improvement has not changed. Of course, we should also see that the current world economic growth is generally slowing down, and there are still many unstable and uncertain factors in the growth of economic and trade pressure. The domestic economy is still in the critical period of transforming the development mode, optimizing the economic structure and transforming the growth momentum. Structural, institutional and cyclical problems are intertwined, and there is still downward pressure on economic operation. In the next stage, we should further do a good job of "six stabilities" in accordance with the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council to promote sustained and healthy economic development. Thank you.

Attack Yan Chun:

Please keep asking questions. Do foreign journalists have any questions today?

Reuters reporter:

From the data in November, there are signs of stabilization and even positive changes. Does this mean that the economic growth in the fourth quarter can curb the downward trend in previous quarters, and may even be higher than 6%? Thank you.

Fu Linghui:

Thank you for your question. Since the beginning of this year, the overall economic growth in China has been steady, with the GDP increasing by 6.2% in the first three quarters. Judging from the situation in the fourth quarter, there have been some positive changes in the main indicators in November. We think it should be basic and conditional to achieve the expected growth target for the whole year. However, we must also see that the current international environment is still relatively complicated, and there is still downward pressure in economic operation. In the next stage, we should further do a good job of "six stabilities" according to the central government’s deployment, promote innovation-driven development, and promote sustained, healthy and stable economic development. Thank you.

Central Radio and Television General Station Yang Guang reporter:

My question is about the growth rate of industrial production in November. We noticed that the index accelerated obviously. What are the main reasons? In addition, can industrial production stabilize and rebound in the next stage? Thank you.

Fu Linghui:

Thank you for your question. Since the beginning of this year, industrial growth has maintained a generally stable trend, especially the structural optimization trend of industrial production is emerging, and some new growth momentum is accumulating. Judging from the main indicators in November, the industrial production in November accelerated by 1.5 percentage points compared with the previous month, of which the manufacturing industry increased by 6.3%, which was 1.7 percentage points faster than the previous month. From the perspective of industry, 80% of industries and about 60% of products are accelerating. This is the first characteristic of performance.

The second feature, structural optimization, is continuous. As mentioned earlier, industrial development is changing from quantitative expansion to qualitative improvement. According to the main data, high-tech industries and equipment manufacturing industries maintained relatively rapid growth, with an increase of 8.9% and 8.5% respectively in November, both of which were significantly faster than industrial growth above designated size.

The third feature is that the kinetic energy of industrial growth is actually increasing. With the upgrading of industry and the upgrading of residents’ consumption, the growth momentum of some new products is very strong. For example, in November, the output of smart watches and 3D printing equipment increased by more than one time. There are also products related to energy conservation and environmental protection, such as charging piles, and the output of the month increased by more than 40%. At the same time, we should also see that a series of measures to reduce taxes and fees and promote the development of private economy and small and medium-sized enterprises have also been effective this year. In November, the added value of private enterprises increased by 8.9% year-on-year, which was significantly faster than the growth of all industries above designated size. Judging from the situation in the first 10 months, the profits of private enterprises increased by 5.3% year-on-year; At the same time, we can also see that the profit growth of high-tech manufacturing industry also maintained relatively fast, with a year-on-year increase of 7.5%. Based on the above situation, it can be concluded that industrial development continues to advance on the road of upgrading to quality.

From the future, there is still a very good foundation for industrial production, which is mainly manifested in the following aspects: First, our industry category has all the major categories of industries in the United Nations industry category, and the output of about 200 kinds of products ranks first in the world, and the industrial supporting capacity of enterprises is very strong. Second, China has a huge market scale, which provides a good foundation for the upgrading and development of enterprises and the future growth of enterprises. Third, the innovation drive has injected new impetus into the development of industry. As mentioned earlier, some new products and industries are thriving, especially high-tech industries.

From the perspective of future development, industrial growth is still an important driving force to support China’s economic growth. Of course, we also see that there are still structural contradictions between industrial production and market demand, and it is still difficult to fully adapt to the development of consumption upgrading. In the future, we must adhere to innovation-driven and promote high-quality industrial development. Thank you.

Japan Economic News reporter:

Sino-US trade talks reached the first stage agreement. What impact do you think this will have on China’s economic trend? Thank you.

Fu Linghui:

Thank you for your question. China and the United States are currently the two largest countries in the world, and mutual cooperation between China and the United States is a relatively good development for China, the United States and the world. The economic markets of China and the United States are relatively large, and their economic complementarities are relatively strong. At present, the two sides have reached an agreement on the text of the first phase of the agreement, which reduces the uncertainty of the market and is of positive significance for enhancing market confidence and promoting economic and trade development, whether for China, the United States or even the world. Against the background of the slowdown of world economic and trade growth, the two sides continued to promote consultations on the basis of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit, and gradually abolished or even completely abolished tariff increases, thus contributing more to world economic growth. Thank you.

Economic Daily reporter:

In November, the growth rate of total retail sales of social consumer goods accelerated by 0.8 percentage points year-on-year, which also returned to 8% after four months of adjustment. Is this mainly due to the short-term factors of "Double Eleven"? In addition, what are the strong supports for future consumption growth? Thank you.

Fu Linghui:

Thank you for your question. In November, the market sales obviously accelerated, and the growth rate in that month was 8%, 0.8 percentage points higher than that in the previous month. As you said, the "Double Eleven" shopping festival is very obvious for online retail sales. Just now, it was actually mentioned in the introduction that the growth of online retail sales of physical goods in that month was obviously accelerated, which played a great role in stimulating the total retail sales of consumer goods in that month. The development of this new consumption pattern and new consumption format really plays an important role in promoting the growth of consumption, but in this process, we should also see other characteristics. For example, the trend of consumption upgrading is continuous, such as cosmetics and sports and entertainment products increased by 16.8% and 20.1% respectively. At the same time, we should also see that the current consumption is gradually changing from the past consumption in kind to more service consumption. According to preliminary calculations, the current service consumption accounts for about 50% of household consumption. According to our calculation, service consumption has maintained double-digit growth this year. We are not only improving the quality of traditional goods, but also expanding the demand for services such as tourism, health, education and old-age care. The development of consumption will play a more and more important role in stimulating China’s economy.

From the perspective of future development, China’s consumption prospects are very broad. China has a population of nearly 1.4 billion, and we have a middle-income group of about 400 million. This is the largest middle-income group in the world, and the market scale is huge. Second, the income of China residents is increasing gradually. At present, according to the standards of the World Bank, China’s national income level is among the upper-middle income countries. In 2018, China’s per capita gross national income level will probably be more than 9,700 US dollars, and we will move towards a high income level in the future. Judging from the situation in the first three quarters, the per capita disposable income of residents increased by 6.1% year-on-year, which means that the consumption power of residents is increasing. Third, the employment situation is relatively stable, and the coverage of social security is expanding, which is conducive to stabilizing consumption expectations. In the first 11 months, the number of new jobs reached 12.79 million, and the survey unemployment rate remained at 5.1%, which is a relatively low level. Our coverage of medical care and old-age care is also gradually expanding, which is conducive to enhancing consumer confidence.

Finally, a series of measures to encourage and support consumption development are also conducive to consumption growth. Under the development trend of "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services" reform, "mass entrepreneurship and innovation", a large number of new consumption formats have emerged. As we have just seen, online retailing played a great role in promoting the growth of consumption in November. Taken together, the future development of China will be dominated by domestic demand and driven by consumption, and the sustainability of growth will be further improved. Thank you.

Hong Kong South China Morning Post reporter:

In terms of investment, the growth rate of infrastructure investment and manufacturing investment is still at a low level and has slowed down. I don’t know how to evaluate the reasons for this. In addition, there have been some recent analysis and discussions that China’s economic growth rate should be maintained at 6% next year. What do you think of the current discussion on "guarantee 6"? Thank you.

Fu Linghui:

Thank you for your question. There are mainly two issues, one is about investment and the other is about the consideration of economic growth next year.

In terms of investment, investment in fixed assets in the first 11 months increased by 5.2% year-on-year, which was the same as last month. Among them, investment in manufacturing increased by 2.5%, investment in infrastructure increased by 4% and investment in real estate increased by 10.2%. Among them, investment in manufacturing and infrastructure is not growing fast. Of course, we also see that there is great potential for investment in China in the future. At present, the industrialization and urbanization of our country have not been completed, and the investment potential in the future is very huge. Especially in terms of industrial upgrading, with the evolution of industrial development to the middle and high end in the future, the investment of enterprises in R&D and e-commerce is increasing. If we look at it, in the first 11 months, the investment in R&D design service industry and e-commerce service industry all increased by double digits, which means that the industrial structure and manufacturing investment structure are optimized. In terms of infrastructure investment, although the growth rate of infrastructure investment is not very high, we still have great potential in infrastructure investment. After all, at present, our per capita infrastructure investment stock is not high compared with the world average. In the future, there is still a lot of investment space in the areas of people’s livelihood such as pension, education and medical care; A new generation of infrastructure, such as the Internet and communication 5G development, still has a relatively large space; There is also a lot of investment space in transportation construction such as railways, rail transit and urban parking lots. In the next stage, according to the deployment and requirements of the Central Economic Work Conference, all localities and departments should do relevant work well, and there should be more room for investment growth.

The second question is about economic growth next year. After 40 years of high-speed growth, China’s economy has now changed from the past high-speed growth to a medium-high-speed growth that meets the requirements of high-quality development. In the past, China’s high economic growth was achieved by a lot of resource consumption and investment. In the future, great changes have taken place in the economic development stage of China, which has changed from the growth characterized by high input and high consumption in the past to the development stage characterized by improving quality and efficiency, which means that our economic growth rate will not be as high as in the past. According to the requirements of high-quality development, if employment is sufficient, prices are stable, residents’ income is constantly increasing, the ecological environment is improving, the quality and efficiency of development are improving, and the economic growth rate is higher or lower, I think it is acceptable as long as it meets the requirements of the development stage. Thank you.

Xinhua News Agency China Economic Information Agency reporter:

In November, pork prices have dropped to some extent, but the consumption peak season of New Year’s Day and Spring Festival is coming soon. How do you predict the trend of pork prices? What impact does this have on CPI?

Fu Linghui:

Thank you. Everyone is more concerned about the price issue. In November, the CPI rose by 4.5% year-on-year, 0.7 percentage points higher than that of the previous month, mainly due to structural influences such as food prices. The price of food rose by more than 10% in that month, which was mainly driven by the price of pork. The price of pork in that month rose by 1.1 times year-on-year, and the influence of pork price was about 60%. The rise in pork prices will also drive up the price of related meat. In the face of rising pork prices, on the one hand, the State Council and local governments at all levels have introduced a series of measures to promote the expansion of production. For example, some positive changes have been seen in increasing pig production, expanding large-scale breeding, and gradually pushing all localities to cancel unreasonable measures to ban and limit raising. Judging from the month-on-month increase in pork prices in November, there has been a decline. On the other hand, relevant departments are also actively increasing pork imports and putting reserve pork into the market, which has also played an important role in stabilizing prices. At the same time, temporary price subsidies will be started in time to ensure the basic livelihood of the disadvantaged groups.

Judging from the future situation, it may take some time for the supply of live pigs to recover, and the high price operation may also last for some time. However, there are good conditions and foundations for food price stability. This year’s grain production has achieved another bumper harvest, with the annual grain output reaching 1,327.7 billion Jin, an increase of 0.9% over the previous year and a record high. Grain is an important foundation of food, and the stability of grain production plays a very important supporting role in the stability of food prices. With the effectiveness of a series of policies to support pig production, it can be expected that pork prices will gradually stabilize or even fall back. As far as other fresh foods are concerned, the overall supply is relatively sufficient. In November, the prices of fresh fruits and aquatic products were still falling. Judging from these circumstances, we feel that there are foundations and conditions for food prices to remain stable.

In addition, in addition to food prices, the prices of industrial consumer goods declined slightly in November, while the prices of services rose slightly. At present, the supply capacity of industrial consumer goods is very strong, and the supply of services is gradually increasing with the development of service industry. It is worthwhile to keep the price stable in the future.

Attack Yan Chun:

Do you still have any concerns? If not, today’s press conference is over. Thank you, Mr. Fu Linghui, and thank you all.

The Heilongjiang Provincial Department of Finance has made great efforts to support the construction of digital governments around the country, and the results have begun to show.

  In order to thoroughly study and implement the important exposition of the Supreme Leader General Secretary on strengthening the construction of digital government, conscientiously implement the major decision-making arrangements of the provincial party committee and the provincial government on strengthening the construction of digital government, promote the transformation of government departments’ governance means, and enhance their governance capacity, the Finance Department of Heilongjiang Province raised funds from various sources to help improve the quality and efficiency of digital government projects throughout the province. 

  With the approval of the provincial government, the Provincial Department of Finance arranged 290 million yuan of bond funds to support the construction of digital government projects in eight cities (prefectures) such as Mudanjiang City, Shuangyashan City, hegang City and Jixi City, including the construction of government data resource centers, government data sharing and exchange platforms, subject database of special question bank, unified government service website, mobile terminal featured content, integrated security operation center and grid management platform. 

  Over the past year, all localities have adhered to the concept of "a game of chess in the whole province" and actively promoted the construction of digital government in accordance with the unified deployment of the province. 

  Mudanjiang City has accumulated more than 6.2 billion pieces of data by integrating the scattered heterogeneous data resources within the government and using the government data sharing and exchange platform and government data resource center, which has increased by more than 60 times compared with the same period of last year, eliminating the "data island" in Mudanjiang City; The special service "one thing at a time" was launched, including 15 special business themes, which formed a new integrated service mode of "one form declaration, information reuse, unified acceptance and collaborative approval" in the city. The business processing time was reduced by an average of 2 working days, the number of runs was reduced by an average of 3 times, the required materials were reduced by an average of 4 copies, and the processing links were reduced by an average of 2. 

  Shuangyashan Data Resource Center gathers 2 billion pieces of government data, and the shared exchange platform mounts more than 500 pieces of data directory resources, with a mounting rate of 100%. The integrated security center and integrated operation and maintenance platform can manage government cloud, government extranet, government data and government information systems, forming an integrated government resource management system; Relying on the province’s integrated government service platform, 40 integrated services with the theme of "one thing at a time" will be built, and 107 convenient service applications will be launched on the government service network and mobile terminal to further enhance the government service capacity of Shuangyashan City. 

  Hegang applies digital technology to government services to effectively simplify administrative processes, establish a flat management model with workflow as the center, smooth information and proper authorization, thus breaking the barriers between departments and regions and strengthening the coordination among regions and departments, so as to realize more data running and less errands for the masses, and let more people enjoy the "digital dividend"; By promoting the online operation and dynamic management of all kinds of matters, we can realize online processing and "one online operation" of all kinds of businesses, greatly reduce the time limit for project investment approval and enterprise start-up, "loosen" the business activities of enterprises and effectively optimize the business environment. 

  Jixi upgraded the first plane of the city’s e-government extranet, built the second plane, and built the wide area network and metropolitan area network of the city, county (city), township (street) and village (community) e-government, realizing "one network with two planes", dual devices, dual links, load balance and mutual backup, with coverage rate and dedicated line access rate reaching 100%, forming the city’s e-government. A new monitoring platform for urban underground space is built, and the three-dimensional detection data subject database of shallow surface of urban roads is built by using the technologies of three-dimensional ground penetrating radar, laser pavement detection and multi-source data fusion of Chinese Academy of Sciences, which can provide information such as pavement cracks, pavement damage, underground cavity location and underground pipe network layout, and improve the ability of hazard early warning and monitoring. 

The giant panda "baby" in the United States is about to return to China, and the American people are reluctant to send blessings.

  China news agency, Washington, February 17 th: The giant panda "Baby" in the United States is about to return to China, and the American people are reluctant to send their blessings.

  China News Service reporter Diao Haiyang

  In less than four days, the giant panda "Bao Bao" in the United States will soon embark on a trip back to China. In the past few days, many Americans have gone to the National Zoo in Washington to bid farewell to their beloved "baby" and send their best wishes.

  Baby, a female giant panda, was born at the National Zoo in Washington on August 23rd, 2013. Her parents are Tian Tian and Mei Xiang, giant pandas living in the United States. Rui Thompson, a biologist and deputy director of the Panda Pavilion at the Washington National Zoo, said that Mei Xiang didn’t give birth to a second cub until 2012 after giving birth to the male giant panda "Taishan" in 2005, but it only survived for a week. Therefore, the birth of a "baby" is simply a miracle.

  "Baby" has attracted the attention of the United States since its birth. Its first public appearance made the whole Washington National Zoo very lively, and some fans drove for 9 hours just to see its budding state.

On February 16, local time, many Americans came to the National Zoo in Washington to bid farewell to the giant panda "Baby" in the United States. "Baby" will leave for home on the 21st of this month. <a target='_blank' href='http://www.chinanews.com/'width=

  The name "Baby" comes from an online voting activity jointly sponsored by the Washington National Zoo, the China Embassy in the United States and the US Embassy in China. On its centenary, the wives of the heads of state of China and the United States each sent blessings to it through a video. When it was one year old, the zoo also held a special "grab the week" ceremony.

  In a blink of an eye, "Baby" has grown from a cute pink cub to a giant panda weighing 188 pounds (about 85 kilograms). According to the agreement between China and the United States, the "baby" needs to return to China before he is 4 years old.

  The Washington National Zoo announced on the 6th of this month that Baby will leave for China on the 21st of this month, and the zoo will hold a six-day "Farewell to Baby" special event from the 16th.

  On the first day of the event, a large number of fans and media reporters went to the panda hall of the zoo to bid farewell to the "baby". People raised their mobile phones and cameras to record its last week in Washington.

On February 16, local time, many Americans came to the National Zoo in Washington to bid farewell to the giant panda "Baby" in the United States. "Baby" will leave for home on the 21st of this month. After that, the number of giant pandas in the Washington Zoo will be reduced to three, namely, the parents "Tian Tian" and "Mei Xiang" and the younger brother "Beibei". <a target='_blank' href='http://www.chinanews.com/' alt=

  In order to let people fully express their thoughts and wishes for the "baby", the zoo has prepared exquisite postcards. People can write messages on it and post them in the "mailbox". According to Allen Starbuck, a zoo worker, these postcards will go to China with the baby.

  Stephanie Smith, who lives near the zoo, told China News Service that "Baby" is like her neighbor. She often walks to the Panda Pavilion to see it. She said that she likes "Baby" so much that it is hard to imagine what she will feel when she comes to the Panda Pavilion after it leaves. In order to see the "baby" more, she decided to come to the zoo to see it every day from the 16th.

  Debbie Davis, a volunteer at the zoo, said that she witnessed the birth, growth and departure of Mount Tai, and now the same thing will happen to the baby. She said that in more than three years, she went to the Panda Pavilion countless times to see the "baby", but when it finally left, it was still very sad.

  On the zoo website, the keepers of "Baby" wrote down the details of getting along with it day and night. Jenny Spoton wrote, "This is the first giant panda I have come into contact with since I worked. I watched it grow from the size of a butter stick to today. During this period, I have gained too many things. "

  Stacy Taipola Rio wrote, "Sometimes it looks introverted, sometimes it looks active. At night, it will jump up and down, throw its toys around and have a good time. "

  On the morning of 21st of this month, "Baby" will depart from Washington National Zoo and go to Washington Dulles International Airport. Later, it will fly to Chengdu, China on a cargo plane of FedEx.

  The breeder Marty Dilry said that recently, they have been helping the "baby" adapt to its aviation box. He said with a smile, "Baby" has performed very well and may have fallen in love with its aviation box.

  "Baby" is a crystallization of the cooperation between China and the United States in the field of giant panda research and protection, and it is also the messenger of Sino-US friendship. Netizen Heather Heckel left a message on the Facebook page of "Baby" on the 16th, saying, "Dear &lsquo; Baby &rsquo; Thank you for letting us watch you grow up, for giving us hope for protecting endangered species, and for bringing the people of the United States and China closer together.

In 1989, it was renamed Chengdu Shengshi Industrial Corporation. In just a few years, "Chengdu Shengshi" has developed into a local star enterprise. In 1996, Chen Zhiwu established Sichuan Shengshi Group Company with a registered capital of 40.45 million yuan with Shengshi Industry and other companies as sponsors.

  After Huang Jinjiang became the branch head of Agricultural Bank of China, Dazhou, Chen Zhiwu began to contact Huang Jinjiang and others. Chen began to "give gifts" to Huang, from Rolex watches, a house in Chengdu, and finally directly to RMB. From 1993 to 1997, Huang Jinjiang received a total of 2.27 million yuan and 550,000 US dollars, totaling more than 7 million yuan.

The first observation: General Secretary Tong elaborated on further improving the comprehensive and strict party management system from five aspects.

  On June 27th, when presiding over the 15th collective study in the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that it is necessary to "further improve the comprehensive and strict governance system with complete elements, complete functions, scientific norms and efficient operation".

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has unswervingly promoted the comprehensive and strict administration of the Party, built a system of comprehensive and strict administration of the Party, and opened up a new realm of self-revolution of the Party for a century. In order to constantly push forward the new great project of party building in the new era, the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward a major measure of "improving the system of strictly administering the party in an all-round way" for the first time. On the basis of a profound analysis of the risks and challenges faced by the Party in the new journey, this collective study in the Political Bureau of the Central Committee clearly put forward "to further improve the system of strictly administering the Party in an all-round way".

  Party building in the new era is a systematic project. From "building a comprehensive and strict party management system" to "improving the comprehensive and strict party management system" to "further improving the comprehensive and strict party management system", it fully embodies the systematic thinking and scientific method of the CPC Central Committee with the supreme leader as the core to keep pace with the times.

  How to further improve the system of comprehensively and strictly administering the party? General Secretary of the Supreme Leader elaborated from five aspects.

  &mdash; &mdash; Improve the organizational system that runs through from top to bottom and implements a strong force.

  Regarding the importance of the organization, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader once made a vivid metaphor: "A loose and sparse organization can’t do anything, and it can’t be done. If the party organization is like a cart shop or a hypermarket, it can come and go whenever it wants, what core strength can it have? "

  A big party with more than 5 million grass-roots organizations and more than 98 million party member, only when the party organizations at all levels are sound and excellent, and a strict organizational system is formed that runs through from top to bottom and is effectively implemented, can the party’s leadership be "like an arm, like an arm."

  In this collective study, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader focused on the goal of "linking up and down, implementing effectively" and put forward all-round requirements for improving the organizational system, with both clear guiding ideology and specific methods.

  &mdash; &mdash; Improve the education system of consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan, concentrating on the soul and casting the soul.

  Insisting on arming the whole party, guiding practice and promoting work with the latest achievements of the modernization of Marxism in China is an important experience for our party to create history and achieve brilliant achievements.

  In the new era, a series of centralized education and regular education within the Party have been carried out one after another and promoted at different levels, and the study and implementation of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era has been carried out throughout, and the theoretical arm has been continuously deepened.

  This collective study, from grasping the foundation of ideological construction, to insisting on regular education and centralized education, combining theoretical arms with practical application, strengthening party spirit and enhancing skills, and then grasping the ongoing party discipline study and education, the Supreme Leader General Secretary made a profound explanation and put forward clear requirements.

  &mdash; &mdash; Improve the supervision system with precise efforts and both the symptoms and the root causes.

  Our party’s overall leadership and long-term governance, the biggest challenge is the supervision of power.

  In this collective study, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader focused on improving the supervision system and highlighted the "four mechanisms" &mdash; &mdash; Party member’s management mechanism, strict management and supervision of cadres, normalization of discipline and discipline, and integrated promotion of working mechanisms that dare not rot, cannot rot, and do not want to rot; "One System" &mdash; &mdash; A unified leadership, comprehensive coverage, authoritative and efficient supervision system of the Party; "Four key points" &mdash; &mdash; Political supervision, the supervision of the leading group, especially the "number one", the supervision of "three majors and one big" and the supervision of key areas such as centralized power, intensive capital and rich resources reflect the target requirements of "accurately exerting strength and treating both the symptoms and the root causes".

  &mdash; &mdash; Improve the scientific, complete and effective institutional system.

  System is a fundamental, overall, stable and long-term issue related to the development of the cause of the party and the state.

  In this collective study, around the improvement of the institutional system, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made clear requirements from two aspects: on the one hand, he focused on strengthening system integration, emphasizing "making the institutional construction adapt to the needs of managing the party and the party, matching with the party’s various constructions, and weaving the cage of the system in all directions"; On the other hand, it focuses on the key word "reform", emphasizing deepening the reform of laws and regulations within the party and "promoting good experiences and good practices into systems in a timely manner".

  &mdash; &mdash; Improve the responsibility system with clear subject and clear requirements.

  Only by strengthening responsibility can we take strong responsibility.

  This collective study has put forward clear requirements for the Party Committee (leading group) to strictly manage the party’s main responsibility, the supervision responsibility of discipline inspection commissions at all levels, the responsibility of the Party Committee (leading group) secretary as the first responsible person, the responsibility of leading group members to manage the party and the specific responsibilities of party member and cadres.

  The Communist Party of China (CPC) is about to celebrate its 103rd birthday. Different from the lost country and broken mountains and rivers more than a hundred years ago, today we are closer, more confident and capable of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation than at any time in history, and we must be prepared to make more arduous and arduous efforts.

  As General Secretary of the Supreme Leader profoundly pointed out: "Strictly administering the party in an all-round way is always on the road, and the party’s self-revolution is always on the road."

The finless porpoise is in distress, and life and death rescue is staged here!

On the morning of February 22nd, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province ushered in the first snowfall in the Year of the Loong. At the same time, in the backyard of Nanjing Underwater World, a rescue work concerning the fate of the Yangtze finless porpoise, a national first-class protected wild animal, is under intense progress.

The treatment pool is surrounded by professional rescue teams and volunteers, whose eyes are fixed on the figure in the water-a wild injured finless porpoise found in the main stream of the Yangtze River. Three staff members gently lifted the finless porpoise out of the water with a special stretcher cloth and placed it on a padded treatment table. The waiting ambulance team quickly started the diagnosis and treatment work.

The ultrasonic probe glided slowly over the chest of the finless porpoise, and the sectional image of the finless porpoise viscera was clearly presented on the display screen. The portable X-ray machine is ready for further examination of the lesion; The blood drawing needle accurately pierces the blood vessel on the caudal fin of finless porpoise, and takes the blood sample needed for laboratory analysis; Not far away, the drip stand has been set up, and the medical staff are preparing anti-inflammatory drugs … While observing the data on the screen, the experts are whispering about the condition of the finless porpoise.

Where does this Yangtze finless porpoise come from? How did you get hurt?

On February 11th, the second day of the Lunar New Year, while Nanjing citizens were immersed in the festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival, the members of the photography team of the Nanjing finless porpoise Aquatic Biological Protection Association still stuck to the coastline of the Yangtze River to photograph and monitor the Yangtze finless porpoise. "In the afternoon, a team member sent a group of worrying photos of the finless porpoise to the work group. In the picture, the tail of the finless porpoise was scarred and attached with a large number of abnormal vegetation, and there were some traces of entanglement on it. We judged that the injury was likely to threaten the life of the finless porpoise and immediately reported the relevant situation to the Nanjing Yangtze finless porpoise provincial nature reserve management station. " Jiang Meng, secretary general of the Nanjing finless porpoise aquatic biology protection association, said.

A rescue against time began. On February 13th, Nanjing Municipal Bureau of Greening and Landscape Architecture organized experts to hold an emergency meeting to judge the injury and rescue plan of finless porpoise, and entrusted the Freshwater Fisheries Research Center of Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences to organize and implement the search and rescue mission of injured finless porpoise. On the evening of February 15th, six scientific research and monitoring vessels and more than 50 professional ambulance crews from two provinces and three places were assembled in place. On the morning of February 16th, the search and rescue fleet was dispatched decisively, and the injured finless porpoise was successfully searched and rescued on board at 11: 15 that morning.

"The hydrological conditions in the main stream of the Yangtze River are complex, and there are many navigable ships. It is very difficult to catch and rescue the Yangtze finless porpoise. The rescue process requires the skilled cooperation of many ships and the combination of various nets. Thanks to the work experience accumulated by our normalized finless porpoise rescue and emergency drills, this fishing and rescue operation was very smooth, and it was the first successful case in China to carry out active fishing and rescue for injured finless porpoises in the mainstream of the Yangtze River. " Liu Kai, a researcher at the Freshwater Fisheries Research Center of the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences, said.

After examination, it was confirmed that the injured finless porpoise was female, aged about 5 years. The initial diagnosis of the injury was that the tail fin and tail stalk were infected by debris, and there were 5 hyperplastic tissues, and the lungs were infected to some extent, which was serious. As of February 22, the injured finless porpoise has received the first-stage emergency treatment for 6 days, and whether the treatment work is effective or not affects the hearts of everyone in the team.

"Blood tests show that the immune function of finless porpoise has recovered, and the symptoms of anemia have improved significantly, but there are still infections; Image examination showed that the lung inflammation of finless porpoise was initially controlled. The ulcerated lesions on the body surface are gradually healing, and the symptoms of suppuration basically disappear … "At noon on February 22, Liu Kai took the test report that had just been released, and his brow, which had been tight for several days, gradually stretched out. "Although the phased results have been achieved, we can’t take it lightly! The rescue of cetaceans and dolphins is a worldwide problem. In particular, there are few cases of diagnosis and treatment of injured finless porpoises. We must further rely on the collective strength of the treatment team to optimize the treatment and nursing plan and do our best to help finless porpoises recover as soon as possible. " Liu Kai said.

Jiang Meng also breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the news that the Yangtze finless porpoise was in stable condition. "Come on, I’ll take you to the active section of the Yangtze finless porpoise, which is in the main city of Nanjing!"

After coming to the Yangtze River Smile Station near the Gulou River in Nanjing, in just 10 minutes, the reporter saw more than a dozen finless porpoises coming out of the water for air. Their smart figures jumped on the river as if dancing with snowflakes. "Nanjing has a history of more than 3,000 years, and it has been a neighbor of the Yangtze finless porpoise for more than 3,000 years. It is our responsibility to protect them. At this time, there are many female dolphins pregnant in October in the river, and they are feeding their offspring in this rushing river, and they are endless! " Jiang Meng’s words are full of power along the Yangtze River in the heavy snow.
