In recent years, China’s air pollution situation is grim, the problem of PM2.5 (fine particulate matter) exceeding the standard is prominent, and heavily polluted weather appears in many places at the same time, showing obvious regional characteristics. This is still far from the goal of building an ecological civilization and a beautiful home with "sky blue, green land and clean water" proposed in the report of the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.

With the attention of the whole country, the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) actively responded to the people’s environmental concerns, and decided to go to Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and other key areas this year to carry out law enforcement inspections on air pollution prevention and control laws, and vigorously promote the improvement of atmospheric environmental quality through the supervision of the National People’s Congress. As the capital of the motherland and the "four centers" (political center, international exchange center, cultural center and scientific and technological innovation center), Beijing has a great responsibility to prevent and control air pollution, which is one of the key points of this law enforcement inspection.

From July 8th to 10th, the inspection team of the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) Air Pollution Prevention and Control Law led by Vice Chairman Shen Yueyue went to Beijing for inspection. Wang Yunlong, deputy director of the Environmental Protection Committee of the National People’s Congress, Yang Wei, member of the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) and the Environmental Protection Committee, Yang Gengyu and Pu Changcheng, NPC deputies Chen Jun and Wang Xiaoke, Vice Minister of Environmental Protection Zhai Qing and heads of relevant departments attended the inspection.

Shen Yueyue emphasized that the central government attaches great importance to the construction of ecological civilization and environmental protection. The purpose of the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC)’s law enforcement inspection of air pollution prevention and control law is to fully understand the implementation of air pollution prevention and control law, promote the in-depth development of air pollution prevention and control, and lay a foundation for the revision and improvement of air pollution prevention and control law.

In the meantime, the law enforcement inspection team listened to the report of the Beijing Municipal Government, went deep into the relevant districts, counties and enterprises, and inspected the industrial pollution control, motor vehicle pollution prevention and control, clean energy transformation, etc., and had discussions with some NPC deputies, environmental experts and scholars, and business leaders to listen to their opinions and suggestions on the implementation of the air pollution prevention and control law.

Shen Yueyue pointed out that it is necessary to thoroughly study and understand the spirit of the important speech delivered by General Secretary Supreme Leader during his inspection tour in Beijing in February this year, and enhance the consciousness of doing a good job in air pollution prevention and control; It is necessary to enhance the initiative of doing a good job in air pollution prevention and control from the height of promoting the development of the capital and building the first good area; From the perspective of responding to people’s concerns, we should enhance our sense of responsibility in the prevention and control of air pollution and strive to build Beijing into a world-class harmonious and livable capital.

Shen Yueyue stressed that it is necessary to do a good job in law enforcement inspection of air pollution prevention and control law, adhere to the problem orientation, fully understand the implementation of the law, and seriously study the key and difficult issues in law implementation. It is necessary to take this law enforcement inspection as an important opportunity to promote the work and comprehensively improve the quality of the atmospheric environment. It is necessary to listen to opinions and suggestions from all sides on revising and improving laws and supporting regulations, conscientiously sum up experience in scientific governance, and revise and improve the air pollution prevention and control law.

Beijing’s "trick" to prevent and control air pollution: taking multiple measures and combining regional efforts to control haze

On the morning of July 8th, Guo Jinlong, member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and secretary of Beijing Municipal Party Committee, had a discussion with the law enforcement inspection team. Guo Jinlong pointed out that air quality is related to people’s health and the image of the country. Beijing should make the greatest determination and take the most effective measures with the highest standards to fight the tough battle of air pollution prevention and control. Beijing has formulated a clean air action plan, refined its objectives and tasks, and at the same time unified its thinking and reached a consensus through legislation, focusing on reducing coal burning, controlling vehicles and reducing oil consumption, pollution control and emission reduction, cleaning and dust reduction, and actively implementing regional joint prevention and control. The previous stage of air pollution prevention and control began to achieve positive results. I hope that the inspection team will put forward more valuable opinions and suggestions to help Beijing further improve its work level and mobilize all sectors of society to invest in the prevention and control of air pollution.

On September 12th, 2013, Beijing Clean Air Action Plan for 2013-2017 was officially released. The "Five-year Action Plan" clearly stated that after five years of efforts, the average annual concentration of PM2.5 in Beijing will be reduced by more than 25% compared with that in 2012, and it will be controlled at about 60 micrograms per cubic meter.

Zhang Gong, vice mayor of Beijing, said that the new target means that with the economic and social development, the average annual concentration of PM2.5 will drop from 89.5 to 60 in just four years, with an average annual decrease of 8%-9%, an unprecedented improvement. The Five-year Action Plan is the most comprehensive, systematic, meticulous and vigorous air pollution control measure in Beijing in recent years.

In order to strengthen the accountability of assessment, Beijing regards PM2.5 as a binding indicator of economic and social development, builds a target responsibility assessment system with environmental quality improvement as the core, and incorporates action plan objectives and task completion into the performance assessment system. At the beginning of each year, the district and county governments, relevant municipal departments and municipal state-owned enterprises will be assessed for the completion of the annual tasks. As an important part of the assessment and evaluation of the leading bodies, the assessment results will be announced to the public in a timely manner, and a "one-vote veto" will be implemented.

Zhang Gong particularly emphasized that, under the deployment of the central government, Beijing has launched regional joint defense and control, and set up the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding areas air pollution prevention and control cooperation group headed by Secretary Guo Jinlong to control air pollution through coordinated regional development.

The inspection team fully affirmed the characteristics of Beijing’s air pollution prevention and control, such as multi-measures, regional linkage and joint efforts to control haze. The law enforcement inspection team said that through this law enforcement inspection, efforts will be made to promote the whole society to form an awareness of air pollution prevention and control of "breathing together and fighting together" and further promote the construction of Beijing’s first good district.

The initial effect of prevention and control is still in its infancy.

The first to set up a PM2.5 monitoring station, the first to issue an emergency plan for heavy air pollution days, and the first in the country to raise the discharge charges of four major pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, by about 15 times … The inspection team learned that Beijing has made up its mind, made an iron fist, and comprehensively implemented policies, starting with reducing coal burning, controlling vehicles to reduce oil consumption, and improving industrial quality, and made solid progress and achieved initial results.

Zhang Gong, vice mayor of Beijing, said that in the first half of this year, the average concentration of PM2.5 in Beijing was 91.6 μ g/m3, down 11.2% year-on-year. The concentrations of inhalable particulate matter (PM10), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) all decreased year-on-year. In the first half of the year, there were 25 days of heavy air pollution, 15 days less than the same period last year. Faced with the dual pressures of rapid "incremental" growth of pollution and difficulty in reducing "stock" of pollution, Beijing has made great efforts to overcome objective difficulties such as being surrounded by mountains on three sides, drought and little rain, and small environmental capacity, and implemented a number of emission reduction measures, thus achieving a sustained and obvious improvement in Beijing’s air quality.

Controlling coal pollution and reducing the consumption of coal are the longest-lasting and most effective air pollution control measures in Beijing. Since 1998, Beijing has taken a series of measures, such as withdrawing from high-energy-consuming and high-pollution enterprises, limiting production, and "changing coal to electricity" and "changing coal to gas", which has promoted the adjustment of energy structure and achieved certain results. Compared with 2001, in 2012, the proportion of highly polluting fuel coal in the primary energy consumption structure decreased from 51.1% to 25.4%, clean energy natural gas increased from 4.8% to 16.7%, and external electricity adjustment increased from 17.4% to 25.7%. The utilization of clean energy increased rapidly, the use of coal was restrained, and the concentrations of many pollutants represented by sulfur dioxide decreased.

In the control of motor vehicle pollution, Beijing has been in line with the international standards, leading the national level, and achieved "five firsts": taking the lead in implementing the emission standards for new vehicles, and taking the lead in implementing the national I, II, III, IV and V emission standards for motor vehicles in 1999, 2002, 2005, 2008 and 2013 respectively; Take the lead in upgrading vehicle oil standards. Since 2012, the fifth phase of vehicle oil standards has been implemented nationwide, which can reduce the emission pollution of various motor vehicles in Beijing by about 15%. Take the lead in implementing the elimination and renewal of old cars (including yellow label cars); Take the lead in establishing a supervision system for in-service vehicle emission standards; Take the lead in completing oil and gas recovery and management.

Beijing strives to build a high-standard industrial pollution emission standard system in industrial pollution control. In 2013, Beijing shut down two cement production enterprises, Jinyu Shunfa and Pinggu Cement Company, and the cement production capacity in the city was reduced by 17%. The cement enterprises have completely completed the flue gas denitrification project of cement kiln and the sealed transformation of material storage; While promoting the implementation of the coal-to-gas project, the power industry has fully completed the flue gas denitrification project of the existing gas-fired power plant. In 2013, Beijing issued 9 local environmental protection standards for air pollution prevention and control, which was the year with the largest number of standards issued. At present, there are 33 effective local atmospheric environmental protection standards in Beijing, covering a wide range, ranking first in the number of provinces and cities in China, and the pollutant emission limits are all at the domestic leading level, and some of them have reached the international advanced level.

Shen Yueyue fully affirmed Beijing’s efforts in the process of implementing the air pollution prevention and control law. She pointed out that in recent years, Beijing has continuously stepped up efforts to control outstanding problems such as coal burning, motor vehicles, industry and dust pollution, and achieved remarkable results. Good experience has been gained in strengthening the adjustment of industrial structure, optimizing the economic layout of the capital, developing clean energy substitution, promoting the transformation of energy structure, and improving the emergency disposal level of heavy air pollution. However, it should be noted that the current situation of air pollution in Beijing is still grim, and new situations and problems in the prevention and control of air pollution also need to be solved urgently.

Zhang Gong said frankly that the prevention and control of air pollution in Beijing has achieved initial results, but it is still in its infancy. Chen Tian, director of Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau, said that with the deepening of air pollution prevention and control work in Beijing and the development of economy and society, the air pollution situation in the capital has shown new characteristics. At present, the problem of fine particles is prominent, compound pollution is more prominent, the proportion of pollution caused by urban operation and daily life is getting higher and higher, and the interaction of regional pollutant transport is getting bigger and bigger. It is necessary to adhere to the coordinated emission reduction of various pollutants, implement "double control" on the total amount and concentration of pollutants, and also need the joint participation, action and regional joint prevention and control of the whole society to solve the pollution problem.

Can motor vehicle pollution prevention be done better?

Source control can effectively prevent and control. Automobile exhaust is becoming one of the main sources of air pollution, and it is also a common concern of the general public. Therefore, understanding the situation of motor vehicle pollution control in Beijing is the focus of this law enforcement inspection.

The relevant person in charge of Beijing told the reporter that the proportion of tertiary industry in Beijing has exceeded 70%, leading many cities in the country. There are few industries, and more pollution comes from emissions in life, especially motor vehicle exhaust. The results of PM2.5 source analysis in Beijing show that among the local pollution contributions, motor vehicles account for 31.1%, coal combustion accounts for 22.4%, industrial production accounts for 18.1%, dust emission accounts for 14.3%, and other emissions such as catering, auto repair, livestock and poultry breeding and architectural painting account for about 14.1%. According to the analysis results, motor vehicle exhaust pollution has become the most important source of air pollution in Beijing.

On July 9, the old motor vehicles in Beijing were eliminated and updated in the South Center. After listening to the introduction of the center, members of the inspection team asked the relevant staff to learn more about the situation.

"How many old motor vehicles were eliminated by the center last year?" "Last year, we eliminated 200,000 old motor vehicles. The number of vehicles eliminated in Beijing last year was 366,000. " "Which of these 200,000 vehicles accounts for a larger proportion of family cars, official cars and taxis?" "Government official vehicles are not within the scope of our elimination. Generally, family vehicles and taxis are eliminated more." "How many years does the family car generally scrap, and how many kilometers are it generally scrapped?" "Taxis are scrapped after six years, and family cars are in 1989, but how many kilometers are not clear, because they are not collected when government subsidies are usually distributed." The inspection team met an old man who happened to apply for a motor vehicle scrapping subsidy at the scene. The old man happily told the members of the inspection team that the conditions are good now. He just scrapped a van that has been driving for more than 9 years and bought a new Jinbei. According to the subsidy policy of Beijing to eliminate and update old motor vehicles, he can get 7,000 yuan of government subsidies within 10 years, and he can get more than 1,000 yuan of scrapped cars after he arrives at the scrapping factory. After buying Jinbei, the automobile manufacturers will also give corresponding financial rewards, and he can get subsidies and other expenses of 10,000 yuan before and after.

Shen Yueyue pointed out that the elimination and renewal of motor vehicles should consider not only the year of use, but also the number of kilometers traveled, because the amount of pollutants emitted by family cars and taxis is very different. "Beijing promotes the prevention and control of air pollution in all directions, and the most important thing is the motor vehicle problem. Beijing has introduced an economic subsidy policy to speed up the elimination and renewal of old motor vehicles, and to make money more efficient, more targeted policies must be put forward in this regard. "

Adhering to the problem orientation, not only seeing achievements, but also seeing problems, is a distinctive feature of this law enforcement inspection. The inspection by the inspection team in Beijing Motor Vehicle Emission Management Center also fully demonstrated this point.

After observing the monitoring of motor vehicle exhaust by laser remote sensing equipment on the spot and feeling the efficiency improvement brought by science and technology to motor vehicle pollution enforcement, the members of the inspection team also came prepared and put forward their own problems. "I heard that some unqualified cars often borrow a purifier from the repair shop on the side, and then return it after passing the test. With 100 yuan, you don’t have to spend 3000 yuan to buy equipment. " "This is the case." "How to put an end to temporary borrow one? Things outside the annual inspection factory should be solved by comprehensive measures. Now is to plug the loophole. Don’t let opportunists benefit. "

At present, there are 43 annual inspection sites and 274 inspection lines for motor vehicles in Beijing, and they are networked with environmental protection departments. At present, on average, about 10 annual inspection sites are suspended for rectification due to fraud. The members of the inspection team learned that according to the newly issued regulations on the prevention and control of air pollution in Beijing, testing enterprises that do not meet the testing requirements or fail to check carefully will be punished by 5,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan.

"It is necessary to strengthen the supervision of testing institutions according to law." Shen Yueyue stressed. At the same time, Shen Yueyue also focused on the pollution prevention of diesel vehicles. "Although diesel vehicles are small compared with gasoline vehicles, the absolute value of their emissions is large. Is there any potential for reducing emissions of diesel vehicles in Beijing in terms of quantity and quality? If we break through from diesel vehicles, we can still make considerable improvements. "

The reporter learned that in order to reduce the intensity of motor vehicle use, the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission and the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau are working hard to study and formulate policies for low-emission areas and pollution congestion fees. Regarding the lever of charging congestion charges, Chai Fahe, vice president of china environmental science Institute, said that charging sewage charges is actually to increase the cost of using oil to discharge pollutants. We should encourage residents to use cars reasonably and moderately and reduce unnecessary use. Through congestion charging, a more balanced distribution of traffic in time and space can also be achieved. People who don’t pay fees may suffer losses in traffic, but they benefit from air quality, which makes the system more efficient and beneficial to everyone.

Prevention and control of air pollution: what potential can be tapped?

Work together to control air pollution and the whole country should respond. Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei should be at the forefront, and Beijing should become a model and benchmark. In the process of law enforcement inspection in Beijing, questioning and exploring Beijing’s "potential that can be dug deep" in controlling PM2.5 has become the key content of this law enforcement inspection of air pollution prevention and control law.

At the end of February this year, when General Secretary of the Supreme Leader visited Beijing, he stressed that the prevention and control of air pollution is one of the most prominent problems facing Beijing’s development. In order to strengthen the control of air pollution, the primary task of dealing with smog pollution and improving air quality is to control PM2.5, and major measures should be taken from reducing coal burning, strictly controlling vehicles, adjusting industries, strengthening management, joint prevention and control, and managing according to law.

The prevention and control of air pollution in Beijing has entered a new stage of "taking PM2.5 as the core". Whether it is from the Five-Year Action Plan that the annual average concentration of PM2.5 is controlled at about 60 micrograms per cubic meter in 2017, or Beijing takes PM2.5 as a binding indicator of economic and social development, the law enforcement inspection team can deeply feel this.

In the process of law enforcement inspection, the inspection team heard the voices expressed by all parties in Beijing: on the one hand, Beijing should do its own work well, on the other hand, regional prevention and control should make greater efforts. Due to the fluidity and regional characteristics of air pollution, it is impossible to improve the air quality only by one province and city in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen regional joint prevention and control while controlling local pollution sources. Specific to Beijing, from the perspective of coal burning and industrial pollution, Beijing’s economic structure and industrial structure have been adjusted in recent years, and many of them have been transferred outside, which may not be as difficult as neighboring provinces and cities such as Hebei and Tianjin. At present, Beijing’s coal consumption is 21 million tons, Tianjin’s is almost 70 million tons, and Hebei’s is nearly 300 million tons. It is not enough for Beijing to make a substantial reduction, and it is very important to coordinate with the surrounding areas. However, the development stages of different places are different, and the focus of governance objectives is different, so it will be difficult to coordinate. Another example is oil products. Different oil standards implemented in the three places will also affect the prevention and control of motor vehicle emission pollution.

"Now Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei has reached a good consensus on regional cooperation, and established the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding areas air pollution prevention and control cooperation group, and cross-regional cooperation should be strengthened. It is not only air pollution control, but also industrial layout, population gathering and distribution. The task of strengthening regional overall planning at the national level is very heavy and I hope to further strengthen it. " Yan Aoshuang, a NPC deputy from Beijing, pointed out.

At the symposium held during the law enforcement inspection, many experts said that even if the Beijing Clean Air Plan refines the tasks to people and time points, there is still great pressure to achieve the goal that the average annual concentration of PM2.5 is less than 60 μ g/m3 in 2017. Take the prevention and control of vehicle emission pollution as an example. Apart from the vehicle itself, there are also problems of oil quality and road congestion-vehicle emissions will increase a lot in the congested state, which is one of the complicated reasons.

Despite the enormous pressure, the inspection team was deeply impressed by Beijing’s determination and confidence in preventing and controlling air pollution. Beijing is going all out to fight the tough battle of preventing and controlling air pollution. Zhang Gong introduced that the Five-Year Action Plan has been broken down into 84 specific tasks, including 22 on the prevention and control of motor vehicle emission pollution, including that by 2017, the number of motor vehicles will be controlled within 6 million, and the total fuel consumption for vehicles will be reduced by more than 5% compared with 2012 by 2017. One million old motor vehicles will be eliminated, and the application scale of new energy and clean energy vehicles will strive to reach 200,000. Research and development will be made to increase the cost of vehicles and reduce the intensity of motor vehicle use.

Many of these measures have been initiated. It is understood that at present, many bus lines in Beijing have replaced or are replacing gasoline-powered vehicles with clean energy vehicles such as natural gas or electric vehicles. By 2017, the proportion of public transport vehicles with new energy and clean energy in Beijing will reach about 65%, and the fuel consumption of public transport vehicles will be reduced by 40% compared with 2012.

The smog problem in Beijing needs regional linkage between Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. In June this year, the Office of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and Surrounding Areas Air Pollution Prevention and Control Cooperation Group issued the "Key Work of Joint Prevention and Control of Air Pollution in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and Surrounding Areas in 2014". This year, the planning of regional air quality standards will be started, and the red line of atmospheric environmental carrying capacity will be defined. At the same time, study the economic policy to control the intensity of motor vehicle use. This means that economic policies to control motor vehicles such as congestion charges and sewage charges may be studied and implemented in the region.

Beijing has also put forward a number of suggestions to the law enforcement inspection team on the revision of the air pollution prevention and control law, such as adding strict source control measures, adding and refining motor vehicle pollution prevention and control regulations, improving the pollutant discharge permit system, adding relevant regulations on regional cooperation in air pollution prevention and control, and increasing penalties. The law enforcement inspection team said that it will fully listen to the suggestions for amending the law and lay a good foundation for the next revision and improvement of the law.

interlinkage

Beijing issued the most stringent air pollution prevention and control regulations and started a protracted war to control haze.

Beijing’s timely promulgation and implementation of the Regulations on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution left a deep impression on the law enforcement inspection team, believing that this local regulation on air pollution control provided a strong legal guarantee for Beijing to control pollution according to law in the new period. At the People’s Congress in early 2014, Beijing deliberated and passed the Regulations on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution in Beijing, which played a positive role in building consensus and forming joint efforts to control pollution according to law.

Du Deyin, director of the Standing Committee of the Beijing Municipal People’s Congress, pointed out that the Regulations on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution in Beijing was formally implemented on March 1 this year, and the law enforcement inspection of the regulations was started in April. The law enforcement inspection organized by the Standing Committee of the Beijing Municipal People’s Congress will continue until the end of October. It is unprecedented for the Beijing Municipal People’s Congress to exercise its voting rights, issue laws and regulations and carry out law enforcement inspections in the past 13 years, which fully shows that the Beijing Municipal People’s Congress attaches great importance to the prevention and control of air pollution.

It is understood that in the face of severe air pollution reality, the newly implemented "Regulations on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution in Beijing" has added corresponding provisions for environmental violations that were not clearly stipulated in previous laws and regulations but did exist in reality. For example, improper use of the lampblack disposal device can be punished by 5,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan; In the terms of motor vehicle emission reduction, the content of stopping for 3 minutes and turning off the fire, which is most concerned by the public, has been added. To say that it is "the most severe" mainly means that the regulations stipulate that many similar illegal acts will be doubled and punished without an upper limit; The discharge of atmospheric pollutants, which causes serious pollution and constitutes a crime, will be investigated for criminal responsibility according to law.

Beijing’s air pollution control is "making a heavy blow" to polluting enterprises according to law. Chen Tian, director of the Beijing Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, said that since the implementation of the Regulations on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution in Beijing on March 1, the environmental protection department has filed 518 cases of atmospheric environmental violations, with a penalty amount of 10.26 million yuan, and the urban management department has filed 442 cases with a penalty amount of 1.9437 million yuan. All illegal units and violations have been exposed. On July 7th, Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau delivered a decision on administrative penalty to Beijing Bawei Company, with a penalty amount of 600,000 yuan. Previously, in May this year, the Beijing Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau imposed a fine of 300,000 yuan on Beijing Bawei Company in accordance with the regulations for its illegal discharge of waste gas containing volatile organic compounds directly into the atmosphere due to large-scale open-air painting in the factory area. This is the first time that Beijing has implemented "second violation of the law and double punishment" in air pollution control according to the regulations. This is also the highest penalty for atmospheric violations in Beijing since the formal implementation of the regulations.

Zhong Chonglei, head of Beijing Environmental Monitoring Corps, told the reporter that in the first half of 2014, Beijing’s environmental protection system inspected more than 31,000 pollution source units, an increase of 76% over the same period last year. 1206 cases of environmental violations were filed for punishment, and the amount of punishment was 33.097 million yuan, an increase of 76.3% and 199% respectively compared with the same period of last year. Among them, 790 cases of atmospheric environmental violations were filed for punishment, with a penalty amount of 18.36 million yuan.

When an emergency specialist needs first aid.

      This is a silent storm.

  On the operating table, Miao Ting’s eyes were half open and there was no light. His clothes were cut open and electrode pads were attached to his body. The ECG monitor sends out a rapid alarm sound, indicating that the patient is experiencing fatal arrhythmia, and a violent curve on the screen keeps rolling forward.

  Cardiac ventricular fibrillation is coming.

  In the emergency room of the First People’s Hospital of Chengdu (hereinafter referred to as the first hospital), it is not uncommon for patients to have ventricular fibrillation, which will make medical staff enter the most tense state every time. It often appears before people die, caused by circulatory failure, almost as dangerous as "a straight line"

  Next, every minute of the rescue is divided into 60 seconds. The actions of doctors and nurses are like pressing the fast-forward button, relaying chest compressions, establishing venous access, putting on a simple ventilator, and preparing a defibrillator … They can’t bear to look up, while operating, reporting various physiological indexes and issuing instructions.

  Miao Ting couldn’t hear this. His heart stopped, his breathing stopped, his consciousness was completely lost, and he looked extraordinarily calm, and he didn’t respond to the rescue. But under the skin and bones, his heart is experiencing a stormy storm.

  In medicine, the phenomenon that ventricular fibrillation occurs at least twice within 24 hours is called "electrical storm". This is one of the last symptoms that doctors want to see when accepting patients with acute myocardial infarction (hereinafter referred to as acute myocardial infarction). Miao Ting went into fibrillation four times in 20 minutes.

  If you think of an acute myocardial infarction as a person hanging from a branch on the edge of a cliff, then when the "electric storm" comes, the branch will split open. One of the most authoritative cardiology organizations in the world, the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) defines "electrical storm" as "the most serious malignant arrhythmia caused by extremely unstable ventricular electrical activity".

  The storm also stirred the emergency department of a hospital. After the rescue began, 11 doctors and nurses were surrounded in the 15-square-meter rescue room. Someone keeps hearing the news and can only stand by and watch.

  The patient in front of us is both their "old director" and their "instructor". Miao Ting was the director of the emergency department of a hospital for 10 years, and then transferred to the Chengdu Emergency Command Center (hereinafter referred to as the Emergency Center) to be in charge of first aid training. At the moment, almost every medical staff who participated in the rescue or just stood by and waited anxiously in the emergency department had received his first aid skills training.

  Now, it’s time for the exam.

  one

  February 27th was a Sunday. After several days of continuous rain, the temperature in Chengdu dropped to 12 degrees Celsius. Apart from this sudden "cold spring", that day was nothing special.

  Near noon, Miao Ting put on a woolen coat and prepared to go out. Every weekend, he and his wife visit their mother in the old city. My wife remembers that he was in good spirits that day and drove down easily for more than half an hour.

  Miao Ting always looks energetic when he does things, and his friends like to sum up his character with "boldness". He is 65 years old and has just retired from the training department of the emergency center for two years. He was a member of the Standing Committee of the First Aid and Resuscitation Branch of China Cardiovascular Anesthesia Society and the Standing Committee of Sichuan Emergency Medicine Committee, and he was an expert in the field of first aid, especially in the field of sudden cardiac death.

  Miao Ting, who retired three years later, is still busy. Public security, railways, airports, and his most familiar medical system often invite him to give lectures. He is always happy to go to appointments to teach basic or advanced life support skills. In the first 57 days of 2021, he did at least 18 first aid trainings.

  The day before the accident, he was still giving an AHA (American Heart Association)-certified ACLS (Advanced Cardiac Life Support) training course to the medical support team of the Universiade. On the same day, he uploaded 9 photos of class in the circle of friends, with the text "Continue training".

  On the 27th, he seldom had a rest. At 1 o’clock in the afternoon, the old mother prepared her son’s favorite handmade buns, pork and cabbage stuffing. Miao Ting ate three as usual. In the meantime, the family talked a lot, and there was no topic worthy of emotional excitement.

  After chatting, my mother and wife cleaned up the dishes, and Miao Ting lay on the sofa watching TV, and soon began to snore-a habit he developed in the emergency department of the hospital. He always worked the night shift and took a nap.

  My wife went to sleep after she was busy. I don’t know how long it took. In confusion, she felt some noise around her. Open your eyes, she saw Miao Ting frowning, pale, clutching his chest with one hand, moving back and forth on that three-person sofa, looking restless.

  She became alert. At home, Miao Ting asked all family members to master first aid skills. "Even my 10-year-old grandson knows the principle of cardiopulmonary resuscitation.". For decades, every time Miao Ting successfully rescued a patient, she had to be an audience, watching him dance and retell the whole process, and she knew the characteristics of those patients.

  Miao Ting likes to socialize, and his friends are mostly colleagues in the medical circle. She has lost count of how many cases she has heard from them. "Chest pain", "facial change" and "sweating" are the most common words.

  She reached out to touch her wife’s forehead, which was "tidal" and did not sweat as often as acute myocardial infarction.

  "What’s the matter with you?" She’s a little worried.

  "I have chest pain and woke up with pain." Miao Ting replied, clutching his chest hand didn’t put down.

  This is an extremely dangerous signal. The wife recalled that after hearing her husband’s answer, the familiar and frightening disease flashed through her mind: acute myocardial infarction.

  In the eyes of many people, Miao Ting can be called a healthy person. I haven’t had any serious illness, but I can maintain my vigorous energy. Minor ailments rarely come to him, and sometimes he won’t catch a cold once a year.

  But his wife knows that he has been "walking on thin ice" all these years. He has high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, frequent smoking and drinking, and his weight has gradually increased in recent years, which has become an obese figure-all of these are high-risk factors for acute myocardial infarction.

  Three days ago, Miao Ting had a brief experience of chest pain, accompanied by a momentary toothache. After several tens of seconds, the pain disappeared. That night, he also attended a friend’s party on time and drank half a catty of liquor.

  "Call 120?" When his wife asks Miao Ting, it’s like asking for a doctor’s advice.

  "No, look again." Miao Ting gave a hand.

  After a minute or two, Miao Ting’s symptoms were still not relieved, and he kept moving back and forth between the two ends of the sofa. The wife can’t sit still, and the common sense learned from her husband tells her that hesitation is "killing life" at this time.

  "I can’t listen to him. He couldn’t make normal decisions at that time." The wife recalled the situation at that time.

  She should act immediately and dial 120, instead of being influenced by a patient’s opinion.

  2

  The wife dialed the emergency number with Miao Ting’s mobile phone and handed it to her husband.

  "I have chest pain and need an ambulance." At this time, Miao Ting can still express himself normally.

  The dispatcher of the emergency center is familiar with this voice and number. On weekdays, Miao Ting often presides over emergency drills and sometimes conducts spot checks. He will use his phone to "raid" the emergency center to check the quality of ambulance visits.

  After putting down the phone, the wife told other family members present to keep an eye on Miao Ting. She hurried downstairs, rushed to the intersection in advance, and guided the ambulance to the downstairs of the unit to save time as much as possible.

  Shortly after going out, she received a call from 120. It wasn’t Miao Ting on the other end of the phone. The other party wondered, "Isn’t it a drill or a spot check? What about Teacher Miao? "

  "He is really ill, so hurry up."

  In the field of first aid, patient treatment is divided into "pre-hospital" and "in-hospital" two links. China Cardiovascular Report 2018 released by the National Cardiovascular Center shows that there are 544,000 cases of sudden cardiac death in China every year. In another data, more than 70% of these sudden deaths occurred in the "pre-hospital" stage.

  In the case, someone, like Miao Ting, found the chest pain tolerable and kept delaying the call to 120. Some people believe that driving to the hospital is faster than an ambulance, and as a result, they encounter traffic jams or get sick on the way.

  Although he knows this better than most people, as a patient, Miao Ting is still making mistakes as dangerous as them.

  It took only seven minutes for the ambulance to reach the gate of the community. After the doctors and nurses went upstairs, they first put an oxygen bag on Miao Ting, and then detected the electrocardiogram on the spot, initially judging that it was an acute myocardial infarction.

  "Not typical enough." Miao Ting shook his head. "Look again."

  Doctors and nurses are his "junior", and some of them are at a loss. They can only gently persuade him, "Uncle Miao, go to the hospital, you are very dangerous." He lay on the sofa without moving, just waving his hand.

  "Go to the hospital right away!" The wife has a firm attitude.

  Throughout the process, she was decisive and calm enough. She said that she had to do this. No one knew that her palms were sweaty and her heart beat significantly faster. "I can feel it."

  Miao Ting seemed to be intimidated by his wife and didn’t resist. Just like the usual exercise, several emergency personnel carried the stretcher and sent him to the ambulance in the fastest and most stable way.

  Before getting on the bus, the doctor took out "a pack of medicine for chest pain" (aspirin, tegrello and clopidogrel, all anticoagulant and platelet aggregation inhibitory drugs) and asked him to chew it up and take it as soon as possible. In addition, patients with acute myocardial infarction are often accompanied by vomiting symptoms. After chewing, patients can try to avoid spitting out the whole medicine.

  Panic, a pill fell to the ground, his wife forgot so much, picked it up and stuffed it into Miao Ting’s mouth with dirt.

  The ambulance sounded the siren, and the vehicles on the road gave way one after another, and the red light was unstoppable.

  In the ambulance, Miao Ting became more agitated and "tossed and turned" on the stretcher. The nasal oxygen tube was repeatedly thrown off and put on. The nurse pressed his shoulder and his wife pressed his leg, trying to control his body.

  The sweat on his forehead increased obviously and fell off one by one. After a while, he touched his throat and said, "It’s like a fire" and it "burned" all the way to his stomach.

  "Huaxi Hospital! Tianfu Avenue! South Railway Station … "Along the way, the nurses were synchronizing the ambulance position with him, reassuring him that" it will arrive soon ".

  Fifteen minutes later, the ambulance arrived at the emergency door of a hospital. The pre-hospital rescue is over, and the process is almost perfect, but the patient’s dangerous condition has not been alleviated. The coronary artery is being blocked a little bit, and every second, the heart may be damaged by ischemia.

  In the treatment of acute myocardial infarction, there is a classic "DtoB" time, which refers to the time from the patient entering the hospital gate to dilating the blocked blood vessel with a balloon. In China, the prime time for DtoB is 90 minutes. After this time, the benefits of patients will decline exponentially until they die.

  In this rescue, the next stage began to time.

  three

  When receiving the call from the ambulance, Li Jiawen, an emergency doctor in a hospital, had just settled a dizzy patient and was communicating with the patient’s family.

  "A patient with acute myocardial infarction will be admitted to the hospital in 10 minutes. Please be prepared." Explain on the other end of the phone. Then added, "The patient is Mr. Miao Ting."

  Li Jiawen was already nervous, but she was "relieved" when she heard that it was Teacher Miao Ting. Like the people in the emergency center, she also felt that "Teacher Miao came to exercise again".

  She worked as an emergency doctor for 8 years. When she joined the company, Miao Ting had been transferred from the position of emergency director, but she was no stranger to Miao Ting. Every year, the hospital conducts rescue training and invites Miao Ting to give lectures. Sometimes the city holds first aid competitions, and Miao Ting often takes part in scoring as a judge.

  "Teacher Miao’s training is very interesting, and it will be particularly passionate and useful in combination with the cases he has encountered before." In Li Jiawen’s impression, Miao Ting devoted himself to first aid training and was "very strict". I learned a lot from him about the operating rules I mastered and the handling methods of some urgent cases.

  She and several colleagues are pushing the rescue bed to prepare for the "patient". The ambulance quickly drove into the rescue channel, and the door opened. Li Jiawen saw Miao Ting lying on a stretcher, one hand on his chest, sweating profusely. There are also family members around, and the expression is tense. This is obviously not a performance.

  Too late to be surprised, the doctor in the ambulance pushed the stretcher out of the car and called them to transfer the patient to the rescue bed.

  On the way to the intensive care room, Li Jiawen even felt a little trance. An expert who teaches people how to rescue myocardial infarction every day is now rescued because of myocardial infarction. "This is too unreal." She picked up Miao Ting’s electrocardiogram, and her doubts disappeared. The curve above suggested that the patient had typical myocardial infarction characteristics.

  In daily life, there are many factors that induce acute myocardial infarction, such as heavy drinking, excessive fatigue, strenuous exercise, emotional excitement and sudden drop in temperature. No one can accurately tell the cause of Miao Ting’s sudden acute myocardial infarction. Perhaps it was the wine game three days ago, or the sudden cold in spring and the fatigue for several days, or it may be related to these factors. But there is no doubt that compared with others, his living habits are more likely to make a heart attack come to you.

  "I should not be a myocardial infarction. I may be an aortic dissection (another serious cardiovascular disease)." Miao Ting was lying in bed, obviously short of breath when he spoke, but he still tried to make suggestions. Even in Li Jiawen’s view, this judgment was a bit strange-in Miao Ting’s class, students loved to listen to him talk about how to read ECG. He is the proposer of ECG in the annual first aid competition in the city.

  Doctors rushed in, and Liu Tong, a cardiologist, happened to be in the second-line class in the inpatient department. He and Miao Ting have been friends for many years and "ran to the rescue room".

  After seeing Miao Ting, he found that the other person’s reaction and dialogue were "more than half a beat slower than when he was awake", and the whole person also seemed very upset. When the nurse wants to draw his blood, he just cuts his hands and needs someone to press it. Miao Ting told Liu Tong that he couldn’t be a myocardial infarction and "can’t put a shelf (coronary stent)".

  At this time, Miao Ting’s second electrocardiogram came out, and it was more clear that the patient had a problem with the right coronary artery. "If he can still misjudge this picture when he is awake, he can basically change careers." The doctor took his blood pressure again. If it is aortic dissection, the blood pressure on both arms will generally have a pressure difference of at least 20 mm Hg, but he didn’t.

  "He was the kind of’ troublesome patient’ at that time. He didn’t listen to the doctor’s advice and had his own views on the condition, which interfered with normal medical procedures." Liu Tong said with a smile that he can understand Miao Ting’s reaction. "He is sensitive to the stimulation of the medical environment, like a person’s self-protection mechanism in dangerous situations."

  Liu Tong judged that Miao Ting should have suffered from cerebral ischemia at that time, which led to confusion and decreased judgment. When this symptom occurs, the patient’s heart function is obviously weak-the contraction and relaxation of the heart depend on the myocardium. Coronary artery is a blood vessel that supplies blood to the myocardium. After occlusion, the blood supply to the myocardium is insufficient, and the ability of heart to relax and contract is affected, so it is impossible to send enough blood to the brain.

  Rescue bed, Miao Ting is still opinionated. The doctor couldn’t help it, and "for the 1% possibility", he promised him to take a CT on the way to the catheter room and "look at the aorta".

  "When he was a patient, his doubts about doctors and his resistance to treatment were no different from those of ordinary people." Liu Tong said that he had experienced this feeling. As a cardiologist, he underwent interventional surgery all the year round, was irradiated by radiation, and his body showed serious symptoms. The hematologist told him that he might be suffering from eosinophilic leukemia. "I first suspected, and then I felt that the sky was falling. That kind of great despair is hard for even doctors to hold back."

  But when facing the patient as a doctor, professional rationality once again dominated him.

  "He (Miao Ting) wants to talk to me about the conditions, no problem, I want to maintain a soft way of communication, but my principle is to trust my professional judgment and not be influenced by a patient with cerebral hypoxia."

  The doctors and patients finally reached a consensus, but Miao Ting was still fidgety and kept repeating his opinions. The nurse opened the door of the emergency room and prepared to push him to the CT room.

  "My diagnosis should be …" Suddenly, Miao Ting’s eyes turned up and fainted.

  four

  The rescue immediately entered another stage.

  Syncope in patients with acute myocardial infarction is a very urgent situation, which is clinically called "Adams-Stokes syndrome", that is, cardiogenic cerebral ischemia syndrome. At the time of attack, the heart function has been seriously insufficient, and the human circulatory system has almost stagnated.

  The alarm of ECG monitor sounded almost at the same time, and the number of heart rate turned into flashing red, representing "first-class alarm".

  "Ventricular fibrillation!" A doctor shouted.

  The nurse slammed the curtain between the rescue beds, and the family members left and cleared the room routinely. Everyone is like a programmed machine, which suddenly starts and executes quickly step by step.

  Someone was holding a needle and looking for blood vessels in Miao Ting’s hand. Someone smeared conductive paste on his chest to prepare for electric defibrillation. The patient didn’t breathe spontaneously and had no time to intubate. Someone put a simple respirator over his mouth and kept holding the balloon of the respirator with one hand.

  Others patted him on the shoulder, "Old Miao, Old Miao" to confirm his consciousness, but he didn’t respond at all.

  "Defibrillator ready!"

  Everyone stepped back two steps. A doctor stepped forward and pressed the electrode plate in front of Miao’s chest. Discharge, 200 joules of energy instantly penetrated his skin and muscles and reached his heart. His body bounced up and down from the bed.

  When ventricular fibrillation occurs, the patient’s ventricular muscle is ischemic and the cell electrical activity is disordered, and the ventricle will tremble as quickly and weakly as a spasm, so that the heart cannot pump blood. Under the strong direct current pulse, the electrical activity of myocardial cells is completely eliminated, waiting to return to normal, just like restarting after a computer crash.

  In the next few seconds, the rescue site suddenly became very quiet, and almost everyone held their breath and stared at the changes on the monitor screen.

  The violent fluctuation of ventricular fibrillation disappeared, but the ECG on the monitor turned into a straight line, and the original rapid alarm sound became an annoying and uninterrupted buzzer.

  The heart, the most diligent organ of the human body, usually starts to work from the sixth week of embryonic development. For nearly 40 years, Miao Ting has been committed to ensuring that the patient’s heart will not stop. Now, his heart has stopped.

  It was at this moment that the blood in his blood vessels stopped flowing and every organ began to suffer from ischemia and hypoxia, including the brain. Every moment, there are tissues and cells that wither and then die.

  Almost no reaction time is needed, and doctors have rushed to give Miao Ting chest compressions. Every time the chest should be pressed down by 5 cm, and then fully rebound. Just like squeezing a balloon, the heart can perform some functions of contraction and relaxation under the external physical compression, although it does not act autonomously.

  "It is this part of the external force that brings about the relaxation and contraction function. Under the deployment of human advanced nerves, it will give priority to blood supply to important organs such as the brain, heart and kidney to avoid damage to these organs to the greatest extent." Liu Tong said that if a person has a sudden cardiac arrest, he should be given cardiopulmonary resuscitation at the first time. "The golden rescue time for cardiac arrest is only 4 minutes. If it takes more than 4 minutes, brain cells will be irreversibly damaged. If it takes more than 10 minutes, people will basically not come back."

  He once treated a patient who had an acute myocardial infarction like Miao Ting. After being sent to the hospital, the blood vessel opening operation went smoothly, and the heart resumed its spontaneous beating. However, because cardiopulmonary resuscitation was not done in time in the early stage, the respiratory center in the brain was damaged, and the patient lost his spontaneous breathing and was "suffocated alive".

  Fortunately, Miao Ting is lying in the rescue bed now. The doctor pressed the relay, and the high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation was almost uninterrupted. At the bedside, the machine replacing manpower has been debugged, the cardiopulmonary resuscitator similar to "pile driver" can be used at any time, and the parameters of non-invasive ventilator have been set, waiting for intubation and airway opening.

  Defibrillation at the first time when ventricular fibrillation occurs, reducing the patient’s sympathetic excitability with drugs, timely cardiopulmonary resuscitation when cardiac arrest occurs, paying attention to the patient’s acidosis after putting on a ventilator and opening blood vessels …

  Miao Ting, who is in shock, can’t know that these processes and movements are just like his lessons. For Li Jiawen, a doctor who is burying his head in the rescue, all movements are derived from the "muscle memory" formed by repeated training.

  But there are still more difficulties than expected. Li Jiawen is responsible for tracheal intubation, because chest compressions will squeeze the airway at the same time, so intubation must be as fast as possible.

  "5, 10, 15 …" Li Jiawen just started intubation, next to the doctor timing.

  She found that Miao Ting’s trachea was a "difficult airway", and it was difficult for the catheter to enter without the aid of equipment.

  "Stop! Stop! " The on-site commander shouted. Li Jiawen withdrew and CPR immediately resumed. After her blood pressure stabilized, she tried again, but it didn’t work.

  At this time, the alarm sound of ECG monitor suddenly sounded. Ventricular fibrillation is coming again.

  five

  After defibrillation again, Miao Ting’s electrocardiogram had new changes.

  Liu Tong recognized this waveform in front of him, and the ST segment (a band of ECG) suddenly rose like a tombstone, so the medical profession called this waveform "tombstone-like" ECG.

  In patients with acute myocardial infarction with this ECG waveform, the myocardium has usually been seriously damaged.

  Before everyone reacted, symptoms of ischemia and hypoxia began to spread to Miao Ting’s whole body. His blood oxygen content dropped to about 80%, which was seriously lower than the normal value of more than 95%, and the skin on his fingers and face began to turn purple.

  "Can Teacher Miao come back?" A nurse whispered.

  No one answered. At this time, doctors from the emergency department, cardiology department, intensive care department and anesthesiology department have been present, and the rescue team even prepared ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) to deal with the worst possible situation-the patient’s cardiopulmonary failure and establish cardiopulmonary bypass.

  They continued to try conventional means. A shot of adrenaline was injected into Miao Ting at the maximum dose. This "cardiotonic needle" had an effect, and the monitor showed that Miao Ting had recovered his spontaneous heartbeat.

  Just jumped a dozen times, the third ventricular fibrillation came again.

  This time, it was an "electric storm". After defibrillation, Miao Ting’s heart stopped again. This made Liu Tong feel desperate. After defibrillation for three times, the patient gave almost no response. What’s more, in his clinical experience, "even if everything is done perfectly, there are still 15%-20% patients with’ electric storm’ who can’t get out of the emergency room."

  On the same day, Qin Fang, deputy director of the Department of Cardiology, was also at the rescue site. She was Miao Ting’s old partner for many years. She took a photo of Miao Ting with her mobile phone and sent it to the family group. "Old Miao may be dying.". She saw another colleague standing beside her, staring at the rescue bed, her hands clenched and shaking.

  A doctor came forward to shine a flashlight on his eyes to see if his pupils were contracting-the rescue has been going on for more than ten minutes, and they are confirming whether to give up.

  The patient’s pupils contracted. This is one of the most advanced nerve reflexes in the human body, and the rescue continues.

  Li Jiawen again ready to intubation, she bent down, have seen an anesthesiologist is present, suddenly stopped.

  "Teacher, you come." She looked at her colleagues, or teammates.

  The anesthesiologist stepped forward, assisted by electronic laryngoscope, as he did every day, and successfully intubated once.

  Miao Ting’s oxygen saturation gradually improved. From the onset of Asperger’s syndrome, the rescue has been going on for almost 20 minutes, which is a long time in the rescue of cardiac arrest. After that, even if the patient is rescued, the prognosis of the patient may not be optimistic.

  At this moment, Miao Ting had a fourth ventricular fibrillation. After emergency defibrillation, Liu Tong saw that Miao Ting recovered his heartbeat, though it was weak, but it was beating spontaneously.

  Then, a doctor saw Miao Ting’s eyelids beating slightly. Then everyone saw it, and his hands and feet moved. Suddenly, he began to vomit with a "ouch", and the doctor quickly helped his head to the side to prevent accidental inhalation.

  This is not a "neat" ending, but no one cares about it anymore.

  "yeah!" Li Jiawen and his colleagues looked at each other and couldn’t help shouting.

  six

  Outside the rescue room, Miao Ting’s wife stood there, "her mind was blank". In the meantime, nurses kept coming out, holding a bunch of papers for her to sign. She almost agreed without hesitation.

  "I believe the doctor, as long as it is beneficial to him, just go to the hospital." Half a month later, when she recalled the storm, her tone remained firm.

  After more than 30 years of medical treatment, Qin Fang has seen too much life and death, and "has been very open." However, those patients who "had the opportunity to pull back, but failed to stay for some non-medical reasons" will make her worry every time.

  She met some family members of patients with acute myocardial infarction, and had to wait for all family members to come to the scene to discuss before signing the agreement. As a result, the patient had been "delayed". There are also family members who ignore the doctor’s urgent urging and tell the patient that they can’t afford to wait. They still have to make a phone call and find an "authoritative doctor" before agreeing to the operation. The result is tragedy.

  "Miao Ting’s case, at the level of family members, may not be delayed for a minute. The whole rescue is completely led by the hospital." In her view, the trust of family members in the hospital is one of the key factors for the success of the rescue.

  After coming out of the intensive care unit, Miao Ting was pushed to the catheter room, and Liu Tong performed interventional surgery for him to install stents in arterial blood vessels.

  "His entire right coronary artery is blocked by half." Liu Tong lamented.

  At 8: 30 pm, the operation was over. After work, Liu Tong put on casual clothes and made a circle of friends on his way home. "I finally got this disobedient’ old boy’ back."

  After the operation, the doctor gave Miao Ting a sedative, and he was in a coma for three days in the intensive care unit. Two days ago, he had a high fever, and the doctor pulled out foreign bodies from his alveoli, which were cabbage and meat stuffing.

  After leaving the hospital, Miao Ting’s memory of the onset was blank. Apart from this, his health is almost fine. It’s just the pain in his chest, the bruises on his arms, and the blood stasis left by interventional surgery that still reminds him that he experienced a life-and-death test that day.

  For Miao Ting families, the aftermath of this storm has not subsided.

  Once upon a time, Miao Ting was the first to get up in the family every morning. Now, his wife always checks if he still has breath before he wakes up. Walking on the road, his wife should also help him, even if his mobility has not decreased. Even when talking, his wife will touch his forehead from time to time to check if he is sweating.

  He sent a banner to the hospital, emergency department and cardiology department that saved him, and wrote: Saving his life is unforgettable. He is most grateful to his wife.

  "Her disposal is almost textbook-style." Miao Ting answered the call and decided to dial 120 after discovering his family’s chest pain, and chose a hospital with the ability to treat it. Let the patient lie flat as far as possible and don’t move at will, which will increase the burden on the heart. When other family members take care of the patients, guide the ambulance to save time as much as possible. After arriving at the hospital, I completely trusted the doctor and didn’t hesitate.

  Miao Ting once learned a data at a meeting of medical institutions in Chengdu. Only about 17% of the patients with chest pain in Chengdu went to the hospital by calling 120, and most of them went to the hospital by themselves.

  "This should not be the level of’ medical education’ that a large city should have." Miao Ting touched his chest with a heavy tone.

  In fact, according to the China Cardiovascular Disease Report 2018 released by the National Cardiovascular Center, there are 544,000 cases of sudden cardiac death in China every year, and the success rate of out-of-hospital rescue is less than 1%, which is far lower than 2%-15% or even 30% in developed countries. Correspondingly, the penetration rate of cardiopulmonary resuscitation skills in China is also 1%, and that in developed countries is 60%.

  Miao Ting used to smoke more than one pack of cigarettes a day, but now it’s reduced to less than two, and he dare not drink any more wine. He wants to continue to promote first aid technology, and the latest case is this personal experience.

  "I am testing my training with my life." He typed this line on the courseware. (Reporter Yang Hai)

Sword refers to the acceleration of financial supervision in key areas, and a package of new regulations is on the way.

  The reporter of the Economic Information Daily was informed that many departments are intensively planning a package of measures to prevent financial risks in key areas and improve the financial supervision system. The New Deal involves systemically important banks, shadow banks, financial holding companies and other fields. In addition, in view of the new challenges brought by financial technology innovation, we will constantly improve the supervision methods, innovate the supervision methods for financial technology giants, and prevent risks and monopoly in promoting development.

  Experts said that the current targeted financial risk remediation actions have been normalized, and further filling the shortcomings from the policy and system level will effectively strengthen the authority, effectiveness and stability of financial supervision and provide stronger institutional guarantee for financial risk prevention.

  Local risks still exist.

  This year is the end of the tough battle to prevent and resolve major financial risks. For some time, with the advancement of various work, financial risks have changed from divergent to convergent.

  Liu Fushou, chief lawyer of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, said recently that China has made substantial progress in the tough battle to prevent and resolve major risks. The blind expansion of financial assets has been fundamentally reversed, the risk of shadow banking has continued to converge, and the scale has dropped by about 20 trillion yuan compared with the historical peak. The disposal of non-performing assets has made great strides. From the beginning of 2017 to the end of September this year, the non-performing assets disposed by the banking industry exceeded the sum of the previous eight years.

  Internet financial risks have also dropped sharply. The actual number of P2P online lending institutions in China has gradually dropped from about 5,000 in the peak period to zero in mid-November this year. The debt risks of large and medium-sized enterprises have been resolved in an orderly manner, and the momentum of real estate financialization and bubble has been curbed. The hidden debt risk of local governments has been initially controlled.

  Although the overall situation of financial risks is stable, financial supervision is also facing many new and severe challenges. "Risks within the financial system are still accumulating, and some long-term hidden dangers have not been completely eliminated. Under the impact of the epidemic, new and old problems are intertwined and superimposed. High-risk shadow banks with complex structures are prone to resurgence. The rebound pressure of non-performing assets in the banking industry has suddenly increased. The capital gap of some small and medium-sized financial institutions has been accelerated. The debt level of enterprises, residents and local governments has further risen. Illegal financial institutions still exist, and illegal financial activities have been repeatedly banned. " Guo Shuqing, chairman of China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, recently wrote.

  Guo Shuqing pointed out that there are many shortcomings in the current financial related system, and the financial rule of law is still far from perfect. Some basic laws need to be formulated and revised in advance, and some rules and regulations need to be implemented and deformed. The existing laws and regulations are not powerful enough, and the cost of violating laws and regulations is too low. Some laws and regulations are not professional enough. The normalized risk disposal mechanism of financial institutions needs to be improved. The trading activities in the informal financial system lack effective constraints.

  A package of short-board policies is on the way.

  The reporter was informed that in order to continue to effectively prevent and resolve major financial risks, a package of regulatory short-board policies is brewing.

  Among them, the evaluation method of systemically important banks will be officially implemented on January 1 next year. In the next step, the central bank will work with China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission to formulate additional regulatory requirements for systemically important banks, including additional capital, leverage ratio, large risk exposure, corporate governance, recovery and disposal plan, information disclosure and data submission, etc. It will also establish an early correction mechanism to promote systemically important banks to reduce complexity and systemic risks, establish and improve the inherent capital restraint mechanism, improve the ability of banks to resist risks and absorb losses, improve their self-help ability, and prevent risks that are too big to fail.

  For financial holding companies, following the Trial Measures for the Supervision and Management of Financial Holding Companies, the regulatory authorities will improve the institutional framework and formulate more specific operational rules for the supervision of financial holding companies, such as consolidated management, capital management and related party transaction management.

  "This method is mainly aimed at financial holding companies formed by non-financial enterprises holding financial business, and formulating relevant management regulations on systemically important banks for large groups formed by the development of financial enterprises will better complement the regulatory framework of the entire financial group." Yin Zhentao, deputy director of the Law and Finance Research Office of the Institute of Finance of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said.

  For high-risk shadow banks, the regulatory authorities will improve the regulatory system to ensure full coverage of supervision, leaving no regulatory gaps and blind spots; Unify the regulatory standards of similar institutions and products, and reduce the arbitrage of idle funds; Improve the risk classification, risk weight, capital provision and other standards of shadow banking.

  Yin Zhentao said that the risk of shadow banking is mainly the complexity of business, and the risk of financial control companies is mainly large-scale and highly related. Strengthening supervision in these areas is an important measure to fill the shortcomings of financial supervision and prevent systemic financial risks.

  Innovating supervision means to adapt to new challenges

  It is worth noting that while financial supervision is speeding up to fill the shortcomings of the system, the means of supervision will continue to innovate and keep pace with the times to adapt to the new problems and challenges brought about by financial innovation.

  Wen Bin, chief researcher of Minsheng Bank, said that as China’s economy enters the stage of high-quality development, the financing structure will also change, especially the rapid development of technology and finance, which will bring more challenges to supervision. According to market changes, the regulatory authorities need to improve the regulatory means in time to prevent unstable factors brought about by excessive innovation.

  Lu Shuchun, secretary-general of China Internet Finance Association, said that in order to conform to the development trend of financial and technological integration, the application of financial technological innovation supervision tools should be further deepened, and more financial technological innovations in inclusive finance, green finance and science and technology finance should be included in the test scope. At the same time, we should vigorously develop regulatory technology, speed up the improvement of financial technology innovation risk monitoring procedures, and comprehensively use big data, artificial intelligence and other technologies to continuously enhance digital regulatory technology means, so that financial management departments can always understand, penetrate, control and manage financial technology innovation well.

  In view of the supervision of financial technology innovation, new supervision means are accelerating exploration. At present, the "supervision sandbox" pilot project of financial technology has covered nine pilot areas, including Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, Shenzhen, xiong’an new area, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Guangzhou and Chengdu, aiming at creating a supervision tool for financial technology innovation that conforms to China’s national conditions and is in line with international standards, and standardizing and guiding the healthy and orderly development of financial technology.

  Guo Shuqing also said that for financial technology giants, on the basis of grasping the principle of inclusiveness and prudence, special innovative regulatory measures will be adopted to prevent risks and monopoly in promoting development. He also pointed out that the use of regulatory technology will be strengthened and legislation on comprehensive statistics and information standardization in the financial industry will be accelerated. Pay close attention to the construction of a big data platform for supervision and make every effort to promote the informationization and intelligent transformation of supervision work.

Signing a fake agreement and stamping a fake seal, the employment rate of colleges and universities is faked into an open "secret"

  During this year’s college graduation season, reporters interviewed in many colleges and universities in Gansu, Heilongjiang, Fujian and other provinces learned that, driven by interests, the employment rate "water injection" has become a hidden rule in some colleges and universities, which may lead to the education department’s misjudgment of major setting and enrollment plan. It is imperative to reform the traditional employment statistics method, introduce new evaluation indicators such as salary level and the matching between post and major, and establish a scientific employment evaluation system for college students.

  According to some college teachers and students who are in charge of employment, there is a phenomenon that employment is rigidly linked with graduation certificates and registration certificates in some colleges and universities, and there is a problem of "water injection" in employment rates such as signing fake agreements and stamping fake seals. "In order to improve the employment rate, some schools guide unemployed students to sign quickly, and students can find a unit to write a letter in order to complete the task and get a diploma." A college employment guidance teacher in Gansu, who did not want to be named, revealed that some colleges and universities also count employment internships as employment, as long as students can "find a place to stamp" as employment.

  "In some colleges and universities, the employment rate fraud is an open secret, and everyone does not mention it in public, but students and colleges know that there are problems." The person in charge of the Admissions and Employment Office of a university in Heilongjiang told the reporter that sometimes a tripartite agreement is signed, and the school or parents help to contact the enterprise and directly tell the other party to help sign dozens of people. The students’ hukou and personnel files are not used in the past, and they are all signed by the school. Students don’t have to work in the enterprise. "Even some colleges and universities fill in flexible employment forms themselves. In order to cope with the inspection by the competent authorities, the verification phone number filled in is also the school teacher’s own phone number."

  Experts believe that on the one hand, the adulteration of employment rate encourages the wind of exaggeration and false reporting, which directly affects the social reputation of colleges and universities, affects graduates’ feelings and trust in their alma mater, and on the other hand, affects candidates’ understanding of the real situation of the schools they apply for. What’s more, it will lead to misjudgment when the education authorities adjust the specialty setting and enrollment plan, which is not conducive to the improvement of the quality of talent training in colleges and universities.

  The reporter’s investigation found that the reason why colleges and universities try their best to pursue high employment rate is mainly because the competent departments will report the employment rate statistically, which is directly related to the social evaluation of colleges and universities and the quality of students. "The employment rate is an important measure of the adjustment of the enrollment plan and the quality of running a school. Students attach great importance to the employment rate index when applying for the exam." A college teacher said that the employment rate has a direct impact on the indicators of college enrollment plan, and it is very stressful for some colleges and universities to reduce the enrollment plan.

  A semi-monthly interview with reporters found that with the increasing popularity of higher education in China, the employment of college graduates has diversified, and a single employment evaluation index with the employment rate as the core is no longer enough to reflect the actual employment situation of college students.

  First, there are "slow employment groups" in colleges and universities. It is common in colleges and universities all over the country that some fresh graduates have a weak desire for employment. Industry experts admit that the mentality of "post-90 s" graduates has changed significantly. Some of them are active in thinking and have less pressure on life, and often postpone employment, which will directly affect the initial employment rate of the school.

  Second, the employment methods of college students are diversified. For example, art students can’t get their employment agreement back if they open their own studios; Students who start their own businesses but are not shareholders can’t get the supporting documents containing the shareholders’ confirmation … … "Now the employment methods are more diversified, such as Wechat business, e-commerce and other occupations. It is impossible to define employment or no employment in the traditional way." Teacher Sun said.

  Third, there is no employment agreement but there are employment facts. According to the teachers in charge of employment in colleges and universities, some small and medium-sized enterprises are unwilling to sign employment agreements and labor contracts with college students in order to reduce the risks and costs of employing people, and often have to wait until the students have passed the trial after graduation. This situation is becoming more and more common, which directly affects the statistics of the initial employment rate in colleges and universities, resulting in the untrue employment rate.

  According to industry experts, the original intention of the education department to announce the employment rate of college graduates is to promote the reform and employment of colleges and universities and improve the quality of teaching. At present, the employment evaluation index of most colleges and universities is the one-time employment rate of graduates, which can only roughly reflect the employment situation of college students and cannot reflect the employment quality of college students.

  Establish a scientific employment evaluation system

  Relevant people believe that it is imperative to change the employment evaluation method with employment rate as the single criterion and establish a scientific employment evaluation system for college graduates under the new situation.

  The first is to introduce the salary level of college students, the matching between posts and majors, welfare and social security into the employment evaluation system. Besides counting the employment rate, the education department should also pay attention to the employment quality of college students. At the same time, the education department should also establish a graduate employment tracking system, improve the quantitative data such as job-hopping frequency, professional coincidence and employment level, and enhance the reference and guidance of employment evaluation.

  The second is to evaluate the diversification of college students’ employment, change the statistical object of the current employment rate, and make statistics and evaluation on different groups such as fresh graduates, self-employed graduates and "slow employment" graduates with employment will.

  Third, squeeze out the "moisture" of the false high employment rate, introduce a third-party evaluation agency to count the employment rate, and make detailed analysis and feedback on the employment quality, so as to provide a scientific basis for schools to improve employment and teaching. At the same time, we can establish verification systems and standards by means of telephone verification and student sample sampling to ensure the authenticity of the employment rate.

Reporting crimes involving wildlife can get a maximum reward of 100,000 yuan.

  Nanfang Daily News (Reporter/Wang Wei) The Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department recently issued the "Measures for Rewarding Reports on Wildlife Crimes in Guangdong Province (Trial)", and rewards will range from 3,000 yuan to 100,000 yuan depending on the situation.

  The reward object is a unit or individual who reports clues about wildlife-related criminal activities within the province to the provincial public security department and meets the reward conditions. The reward object is limited to real-name reporting in principle. For anonymous reporting, if the information card can be provided after solving the case, it will also be rewarded.

  The scope of the reward includes nine types of situations, such as illegal hunting, killing, selling, transporting and purchasing the clues of endangered and wild animals and their products under special state protection. The reward standard is determined according to the contribution of the masses, and the maximum reward is 100,000 yuan. The reporting unit is the Forest Public Security Bureau of Guangdong Provincial Public Security Bureau.

  The content of the reward report should meet three conditions at the same time, including a clear reported object and specific criminal facts or clues; The contents of the report have not been mastered by the public security organs, or although the public security organs have mastered it, the contents reflected by the informants are more specific and detailed, and have played an important role in case investigation or digging deep into the criminal suspects behind the scenes; The contents of the report must be verified by the public security organ and belong to the jurisdiction of the public security organ, so as to detect cases involving wildlife crimes.

  The reporter found out that as early as February 2020, the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Bureau had issued a notice, clearly taking seven kinds of illegal and criminal acts involving wild animals as the focus of the public security organs, involving illegal acquisition, transportation, sale of wild animals and their products, providing trading services for this purpose, and eating wild animals.

  In March of the same year, the 19th meeting of the Standing Committee of the 13th Provincial People’s Congress voted to pass the Regulations on the Protection and Management of Wild Animals in Guangdong Province, which prohibited indiscriminate eating and trading of wild animals, and further increased the punishment for illegal hunting, trading and consumption of wild animals under special state protection, among which consumers can be fined up to 20 times the value of wild animals and their products, which was the first local regulation passed in Guangdong Province that year.

Police in Hengyang, Hunan Province cracked a case of illegal production of explosives and smashed the dens of illegal production of "Chongtianpao"

  Xinhua News Agency, Changsha, September 8 (Reporter Star) The reporter learned from the Public Security Bureau of Hengyang City, Hunan Province on the 8 th that the local police recently cracked a case of illegal production of explosives, and 12 suspects have been arrested, 10 people have been detained in criminal detention, and 2 people have been detained in administrative detention. More than 2.13 million illegally produced "Chong Tian Bao" discs, 2 tons of explosive materials, 3 explosive machines and 321 bundles of fuses have been seized.

  The police handling the case of Hengyang City Public Security Bureau introduced that at 9 o’clock in the morning of August 13, the Hengdong County Public Security Bureau received an alarm from the masses, saying that someone in the west village of Gaohu Town of the county was illegally producing fireworks and firecrackers. After receiving the police, the police immediately rushed to the scene and found illegal production of fireworks and firecrackers in the home of a village in Xicun, Gaohu Town. On the spot, 3,114 unsealed "artillery pieces" filled with gunpowder (127 pieces per piece), 140 packaged "artillery pieces" (98 pieces per piece, 127 pieces per piece), 3 blasting machines and 321 bundles of lead wires were seized, and at the same time, 2 tons of explosive materials used for illegal production of "artillery pieces" were seized.

  After the incident, the public security organs at Hengyang City and Hengdong County attached great importance to it, set up a task force, demanded a full chain attack, and arrested the suspects as soon as possible. The case was filed on August 14, and the suspect Xiao Moping was criminally detained on the same day for allegedly illegally manufacturing and storing explosives; From August 16 to 25, after careful deployment and several days of investigation, the task force arrested 11 suspects including He Mosong, Yang Molin and He Moyun.

  After investigation, from March to August this year, the suspects Xiao Mouping, He Mouyun and others bought raw materials from Song Mouhua in Shangli County, Jiangxi Province, and Li Mou in Liuyang City, Hunan Province, and bought lead wires from Li Mouyuan in Shangli County, Jiangxi Province. They opened processing points for illegally producing semi-finished products of "Chongtianpao" in Yanglin Town, Ronghuan Town and Gaohu Town, Hengdong County, respectively. At present, the case is under further investigation and deep excavation.

How can the hydropower that "depends on the weather" be "guaranteed by drought and flood"? Clean energy helps to meet the peak summer.

CCTV News:Now it is the preparation stage for the peak summer. The National Energy Administration predicts that the national maximum power load will increase greatly this year compared with last year. In Sichuan, hydropower accounts for 80% of the local total power generation. Last summer, there was a "double shortage" of electricity and electricity because of the minimum rainfall in the same period in history. How is the preparation here during the peak electricity consumption this summer?

Yalong River Basin, which is rich in hydropower, is the third largest hydropower base in China. There are seven hydropower stations in operation along the Yangtze River, including Ertan, Jinping and Lianghekou. The reporter found in the Yalong River basin that the hydropower stations here are actively lowering the water level. According to the person in charge of the power plant, hydroelectric power generation has the characteristics of depending on the weather. For the purpose of flood control and storage regulation, large-scale reservoir power stations will reduce the water level before the rainy season, free up the storage capacity, and store the excess water in the rainy season for power generation in the dry season.

The effect of self-regulation of a single hydropower station is actually limited. At Lianghekou Hydropower Station, the most upstream of the seven hydropower stations in Yalong River, the reporter saw a large reservoir. Its total storage capacity is 10.8 billion cubic meters, which is equivalent to about 770 West Lakes. This kind of reservoir, which can regulate hydropower stations in the whole basin, is called "leading reservoir".

Besides water energy, the Yalong River basin is also rich in light energy. Cora Photovoltaic Power Station, located at an altitude of 4,600 meters, will be completed and put into operation in June, with an installed capacity of 1 million kilowatts in the first phase and an average annual power generation of 2 billion kWh. It is the largest water-light complementary power station with the highest altitude in the world.

Yang Zhiwei, Project Manager of Cora Photovoltaic Power Station:Photovoltaic light resources (on the plateau) are abundant in winter and weak in summer, so photovoltaic power generation is relatively large in winter, while hydropower is just the opposite.

In dry season, photovoltaic power generation is more, and hydropower power generation is less; In the wet season, photovoltaic power generation is less and hydropower power generation is more. The electricity generated by Cora photovoltaic power station will not be directly connected to the power grid, but connected to the hydropower station first, tied together with the electricity generated by the hydropower station, and then connected to the power grid.

Chen Feixiang, Deputy Director of Lianghekou Power Plant:The output of photovoltaic is a zigzag unstable curve. After water and light complement each other, the sawtooth random fluctuation of photovoltaic becomes a stable or even a straight line stable output, which makes our power more stable.

Wu Bing, Deputy Director of Electric Power Department of National Energy Administration:The integrated development and construction of water, scenery and scenery in major river basins will help to achieve the goal of double carbon and improve the level of energy security.

The reporter learned that during the critical period of peak summer, the supply capacity of cascade hydropower stations in Yalong River in Sichuan is expected to be 49.4 billion kWh, an increase of 2.3 billion kWh compared with last year.

Gangs organized others to smuggle profits and were uprooted. Guangxi destroyed a smuggling gang that occupied the border and arrested 17 people.

The Baise Border Management Detachment of Guangxi Border Inspection Station recently informed the public that the detachment successfully destroyed a smuggling gang entrenched in the border area, and 17 suspects were caught in the net.

At the beginning of March this year, the police of Yuexu Border Police Station of Baise Border Management Detachment learned in their work that some lawless elements used the convenience of being familiar with the routes in border areas to organize others to cross the border illegally, from which they obtained huge illegal benefits, which seriously disrupted the border order. The detachment immediately organized the police to conduct analysis and judgment, and gradually found out the key information such as the hierarchical structure and personnel distribution of the gang. A smuggling gang headed by a foreigner Huang gradually surfaced.

On March 22nd, after investigation, the detachment learned that a group of foreigners were going to sneak into China from the vicinity of the Sino-Vietnamese border boundary pillar, and immediately mobilized elite police forces to conduct surveillance in key border areas such as Yuexu Town in Jingxi City, waiting for an opportunity to catch the gang.
After the success of the first battle, the police pursued the victory and arrested three other people, including Nong and Zhang, who led the group of people into the country illegally in Yuexu Town and Hurun Town.
As the backbone members of the gang were arrested one after another, Huang, the leader of the gang, became very cautious and it was difficult to detect the news.

On March 24, after continuous tracking, the police learned that Huang was hiding in a cowshed in the border area between China and Vietnam, and then took decisive arrest action. The police used drones to search the area, and with skilled control technology, they quickly locked Huang’s hiding place. Half an hour later, the police successfully arrested Huang, a foreigner who was the leader of the gang.
At this point, a criminal gang that has been entrenched in the Sino-Vietnamese border for a long time to transport others across the border was uprooted. At present, the case is being further processed.

It is reported that since the deployment of the "Spring Thunder" operation, the Baise Border Management Detachment has comprehensively stepped up efforts to crack down on border-related illegal and criminal activities, and has cracked more than 200 cases of various illegal and criminal crimes, arrested more than 400 suspects, and collected a batch of guns and explosives, effectively defending national security and border stability.

  The greatest achievement of the United front work in the new era is that it has formed an important thought on doing a good job in the United front work of the party in the new era in practice, and put forward a series of new ideas, new ideas and new strategies on strengthening and improving the United front work. To sum up, there are the following 12 aspects.

  First, we must give full play to the important magic weapon role of the United front.The United front is an important magic weapon for the party to defeat the enemy, govern and rejuvenate the country, and unite all Chinese people at home and abroad to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. It must be adhered to for a long time. Now, the United front work is not outdated and unimportant, but more important. Some major changes have taken place in the historical position of the Party, the internal and external situations it faces, and the missions and tasks it shoulders. The greater the changes, the more it is necessary to develop and carry out the United front work well.

  Second, we must solve the problems of people’s heart and strength.The opposition between people’s hearts and strength is the key to the success or failure of the cause of the party and the people, and it is the biggest politics. The essential requirement of United front work is great unity and unity, which solves the problem of people’s heart and strength. This is a major issue that the party must make great efforts to solve in governing the country.

  Third, we must correctly handle the relationship between consistency and diversity.The key is to persist in seeking common ground while reserving differences and carry forward "unity — Criticism — The fine tradition of "unity" seeks consistency in respecting diversity, finds the greatest common divisor and draws the greatest concentric circle.

  Fourth, we must persist in developing and perfecting the new political party system in China.The United front must adhere to the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), and at the same time promote multi-party cooperation to show a new atmosphere, achieve new improvement in ideological consensus, and perform their duties and responsibilities to show new achievements. All democratic parties should be good advisers, helpers and colleagues of the Communist Party of China (CPC), and strive to become Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s participating parties with firm politics, solid organization, strong performance, excellent style and sound system.

  Fifth, it is necessary to build a strong sense of the Chinese national community as the main line of the party’s national work.The consciousness of Chinese national community is the foundation of national unity. We should unswervingly follow the correct path of solving ethnic problems with China characteristics, push all ethnic groups to firmly identify with the great motherland, the Chinese nation, Chinese culture, the Communist Party of China (CPC) and Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and guide the people of all ethnic groups to firmly establish the community concept of sharing weal and woe, sharing weal and woe and sharing destiny.

  Sixth, we must adhere to the direction of China religion in China.We will fully implement the Party’s theory, principles and policies on religious work in the new era, persist in protecting legality, stopping illegality, containing extremes, resisting infiltration and cracking down on crimes, improve the level of legalization of religious work, support religious circles to strictly manage religion in an all-round way, and actively guide religion to adapt to socialist society.

  Seventh, we must do a good job in the United front work of non-party intellectuals and new social strata.The work of non-party intellectuals is an important work of the United front. To do a good job of non-party intellectuals, full respect is the premise, strengthening guidance is the key, and giving play to its role is the purpose. People from new social strata are builders of the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics, so we should organize them, strengthen their guidance and play their role.

  Eighth, we must promote the healthy development of the non-public economy and the healthy growth of people in the non-public economy.Promoting the healthy development of non-public economy and the healthy growth of non-public economic people is a major economic issue as well as a major political issue. It is necessary to carry out in-depth education on ideals and beliefs, promote the establishment of pro-Qing political and business relations, promote the high-quality development of private economy, and guide non-public economic people to be qualified builders of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause.

  Ninth, we must give play to the role of United front work in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas to win people’s hearts.We will develop and strengthen our patriotic love for Hong Kong and Macao, enhance the national consciousness and patriotic spirit of our compatriots in Hong Kong and Macao, safeguard the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and Macao, and ensure the steady and far-reaching practice of "one country, two systems". Carry out the Party’s general plan to solve the Taiwan Province issue in the new era, develop and strengthen Taiwan Province’s patriotic unity force, oppose the "Taiwan independence" separatist acts, and promote the complete reunification of the motherland. Focusing on the theme of sharing the Chinese dream with the same circle, we will actively guide overseas Chinese and their relatives to devote themselves to the great cause of modernization and peaceful reunification of the motherland.

  Tenth, we must strengthen the team building of non-party representatives.It is our party’s consistent policy to train and use non-party representatives. It is necessary to strengthen training, improve quality, use and play a role scientifically, and strive to train a group of non-party representatives who work closely with our party.

  Eleventh, we must grasp the law of doing a good job in United front work.It is necessary to strengthen unity and contact with non-party people, adhere to the principle of respecting, safeguarding and taking care of the interests of allies, treat them with sincerity, moving with emotion, understanding with reason and helping them with reality, truly win the respect and recognition of non-party people, and make a large number of non-party friends for the party.

  Twelfth, we must strengthen the party’s overall leadership over the United front work.The United front is the United front led by the party, and it is necessary to ensure the party’s overall leadership over the United front work. The United front work is the work of the whole party, which must be paid attention to by the whole party and done by everyone together, so as to build a pattern of great United front work with unified leadership of the Party Committee, coordination led by the United front department, and respective responsibilities of relevant parties.

  The important thought of doing a good job in the party’s United front work in the new era is the wisdom crystallization of the party’s United front development in the past 100 years, and it is the fundamental guideline of the United front work in the new era. The whole party must implement it completely, accurately and comprehensively.
