Hou Jiayi.

After the Tokyo Olympics was postponed, the Olympic flame has been placed in a "secret location" for preservation. For those torchbearers of the Tokyo Olympic Games, the dream of passing on the Olympic spirit can only wait for the coming year.

In the waiting crowd, a torchbearer is different. She is not an athlete or a celebrity, and even knows a little about sports itself, but she once occupied the "C" position in the front page news of official website of the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee.

The "non-compliant" torchbearer is Hou Jiayi, a 27-year-old girl from China, who went to work in Japan after graduating from American graduate school in 2018. At present, she works as an engineer in a German company in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan.

In an exclusive interview with a reporter from The Paper, Hou Jiayi admitted that she would inevitably feel some regret. However, for this young man, his ambition to connect with the world has only been postponed for one year. "I will be a torchbearer next year."

Hou Jiayi’s countdown clock for Tokyo Olympic Games.

The Olympic flame, so far and so close.

"count down has started again." On April Fool’s Day, Hou Jiayi wrote on her social media, accompanied by a photo of the countdown card, which read "478 days before the opening of the Tokyo Olympic Games" …

Everything seems to be back to the starting point.

Due to the delay of the Olympic Games, the Olympic torch relay scheduled for March 26th was also cancelled. However, the Japanese Olympic Organizing Committee later decided that the flame will be exhibited in Fukushima for one month on April 2-this city that suffered from nuclear disaster is the first stop of the torch relay.

"I saw in the news that the flame will be exhibited in Fukushima for a month, and I felt that I was not far from there, so I drove to see it." Two days after the Olympic flame was exhibited on April 4, Hou Jiayi arrived at Fukushima National Football Center by car for three hours from Tochigi Prefecture.

Like Hou Jiayi, many Japanese people have come here to see the "true content" of the flame. However, in order to avoid crowded people, strict admission measures have been taken in the Flame Exhibition Hall. "I feel that the protective measures here are still in place."

According to the regulations, only six people can enter the museum to watch the flame at a time, and each visitor must keep a distance of more than 1 meter, and stay for no more than 30 seconds. In addition, everyone must wear a mask and disinfect their hands before entering the museum.

"Although 30 seconds feels a little short, it is quite interesting to see the kindling lamp at close range." Hou Jiayi recalled to the The Paper reporter the scene at that time. "Many local people in Fukushima went, and it felt good to bring them hope in this form."

As a torchbearer, Hou Jiayi is undoubtedly lucky. Although she just looked at the flame from a distance, she felt the sacredness more closely than most people. However, after three days (7th), the flame exhibition was urgently stopped due to the severity of the epidemic …

"One in a Million" China Torchbearer

Hou Jiayi once went to her torch relay. "Each torchbearer is about 200 meters away and needs to run in 3 minutes."

Although it’s only a short distance of 200 meters-the conditions for being an Olympic torchbearer are far more demanding than those for being an Olympic volunteer, and they are often celebrities in sports and other fields in China.

For example, Satomi Ishihara, a Japanese superstar, is the torch ambassador for the Tokyo Olympic Games and will participate in the torch relay.

In contrast, Hou Jiayi, who is also a torchbearer, is neither a Japanese celebrity nor an athlete. According to the incomplete statistics of the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee, among the 10,000 torchbearers, about 0.2% are from China.

Then, why was this 27-year-old China girl chosen as the "chosen son" for the torch relay in Japan?

"Maybe I was chosen by accident." Hou Jiayi is very modest about her identity as a "one in a million" torchbearer. She originally wanted to take part in the second leg of the domestic relay in Japan-the Tochigi torch relay in the middle of Honshu Island.

According to the rules of Tokyo Olympic Games, there are many ways to openly recruit torchbearers. For example, you can register directly with the local government, or through Olympic sponsors and insurance companies. In addition, the organizing committee will have its own recommended places.

Hou Jiayi registered with Tochigi County Government. The reason is also very simple. She has worked in a German machinery manufacturing enterprise here for two years. "I work and live here now, and I really want to do something for it."

Therefore, in the column of declaration reasons of Olympic torchbearers,Worked as a volunteer in Sochi and Rio Olympics.Hou Jiayi wrote: "I hope to promote the charm of that beard by becoming a torchbearer." It is precisely this and her experience that BOCOG took a fancy to-promoting local natural and cultural features to Japan and the world..

Hou Jiayi (middle) is a volunteer for the Rio Olympics.

"I was relieved after announcing the extension."

In fact, the torch relay of this Olympic Games was originally "ill-fated"-the torch relay originally planned to be held in Greece was terminated after only one day, and all the performances at the handover ceremony were cancelled. Even the torch was blown out twice by strong winds after arriving in Japan …

Hou Jiayi is very calm about the torch relay under the epidemic situation. She believes that the torch relay should not be carried out under such circumstances. "If I am infected and passed it on to others without knowing it, I personally think it is very unworthy."

Hou Jiayi told the The Paper that it was stipulated in the Torchbearer’s Manual issued to them by the Japanese Olympic Organizing Committee that torchbearers should not wear masks in the torch relay. "When I saw this article, combined with the news at that time, I felt very dangerous."

Later, the Japanese Olympic Organizing Committee changed this rule in an email to torchbearers: The Olympic Organizing Committee said that torchbearers can choose to wear masks if they are worried about the COVID-19 epidemic, and warned everyone to take their own temperature. If it exceeds 37.5℃, they should not participate.

In this regard, Hou Jiayi is still not too optimistic. "The torch relay is two-way. It is not only to convey Japan’s determination to host the Olympic Games to the world, but also to be responsible for its own people. If the epidemic spreads, people should be considered first. "

"So, I feel relieved to announce the extension." Hou Jiayi said bluntly.

Although the desire to participate in the torch relay this year has been dashed, BOCOG assured these torchbearers that they can continue to participate in the torch relay next year. "As far as I know, most torchbearers in Japan are still willing to wait, and so am I.."　

Japanese actress Satomi Ishihara participated in the rehearsal of the Tokyo Olympic torch relay.

"I want to be a bridge connecting the world"

Like most post-90s generation, Hou Jiayi has the unique characteristics of this generation of young people: compared with previous generations, they often have a distinct sense of self and independence, a broader vision and greater ambitions.

Hou Jiayi was born in Zhengzhou, Henan Province in 1993. As early as 17 years old, she left home to attend high school in the United States and obtained a master’s degree from Washington University in St. Louis, USA. It is this overseas study experience that makes this China girl attached to the Olympic Games.

Like most American students, Hou Jiayi also hopes to have a "Gap Year" to increase her experience. Therefore, she has been paying attention to various voluntary activities since her freshman year (2013). "This will allow me to understand the cultures of different countries faster."

Just at this time, the Sochi Winter Olympics was recruiting volunteers, so Hou Jiayi signed up and volunteered for three months. She was deeply touched by this Olympic experience. "I think this is not just a sports event, but more an economic and cultural exchange."

Hou Jiayi is in Sochi Winter Olympics.

Although she usually doesn’t pay much attention to sports, Hou Jiayi was shocked by the Olympic spirit. At that Winter Olympics, when Zhang Hong won the first gold medal in the history of the Winter Olympics for China’s speed skating, she couldn’t help being proud and excited.

The Olympic Games has an intangible charm that makes Hou Jiayi very "superior". After that, she once again became a volunteer for the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, and also set up a domestic volunteer organization to help more Chinese who are interested in serving the Olympic Games to realize their dreams.

"When you are a volunteer, someone tells you what help he needs, and then you help him; But as a torchbearer, I think more about what I can do for others, and I may take the initiative to think more. "

Of course, Hou Jiayi is not satisfied with this. She wants to gain rich life experiences through different experiences.

"I hope I can not only become a bridge between Japan and China, but also become a bridge connecting the world."

Recently, many countries around the world have started large-scale vaccination programs, but the global epidemic situation is still grim, and every link of vaccine supply makes governments particularly nervous. On January 8th, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) updated the regulations, allowing the COVID-19 vaccine jointly developed by Pfizer and German company BioNTech to take 6 doses of vaccine per bottle, one more dose than before. This seems to be good news, but the move by pharmaceutical companies to reduce the supply of vaccines has caused a storm.

On December 28th, 2020, in a hospital in Rome, Italy, medical staff prepared for COVID-19 vaccination. Xinhuanet

One bottle =6 doses of vaccine?

Pfizer -BioNtech vaccine is packaged in a small glass bottle, and it needs to be extracted with a syringe when it is injected. When European Medicines Agency（EMA） approved the vaccine in December last year, it stipulated that a bottle should extract 5 needles. According to the British "Financial Times" reported on January 20th, some health professionals have found that there are often extra vaccine liquid left in the bottle. Xinhua News Agency previously quoted the Associated Press as saying that pharmaceutical companies usually inject more vaccines into bottles than needed to ensure that sufficient doses can be provided even if there are losses such as spillage.

Pfizer and BioNtech decided to reduce the number of vaccine bottles shipped to European countries in view of the increase in the dosage that can be extracted from each bottle. According to a statement sent by Pfizer to the Financial Times, the company can make such adjustment because the delivery agreement between the company and governments has always been based on "dose" rather than "vial" quantity.

Drug regulators in the United States and the United Kingdom have also suggested that 6 doses of vaccine can be extracted from each bottle. British supply contracts with Pfizer and BioNTech are also based on dosage rather than vials.

Pfizer also said that it will supply to countries according to the supply agreement and the effective dose label on each bottle of vaccine, and will fulfill its supply commitment according to the existing agreement.

However, for practical operation, this adjustment is not just as simple as changing the dose of each bottle. In order to ensure that 6 doses can be extracted from a bottle of vaccine, medical personnel must use a special "low dead volume syringe".

It is understood that this syringe is specially developed for COVID-19 vaccine. The so-called "dead volume" comes from the gap between the plunger and the needle of the syringe, which will leave a small amount of vaccine liquid, while the low dead volume syringe can reduce the amount of vaccine left.

But even if this syringe is used, it does not mean that the "complete sixth dose vaccine" can be extracted from a bottle. Medical staff may need to extract as much vaccine liquid as possible from one vaccine bottle, and then combine it with the liquids extracted from other vaccine bottles to form an appropriate dose and inject it into the human body.

However, European Medicines Agency（EMA） expressed its opposition to the practice of "mixed vaccine". The agency warned that if the residual liquid in a single vaccine bottle is less than 0.3 ml after pumping 5 doses of vaccine, it should be discarded together with the vaccine bottle.

On December 27th, 2020, a medical worker was vaccinated with COVID-19 in an infectious disease hospital in Bucharest, Romanian capital. Xinhuanet

Pharmaceutical companies reduce supply and vaccination plans slow down.

Although the EU allows one more dose of vaccine per bottle, the actual landing is not easy. After the vaccine supplier announced a reduction in delivery, health officials across Europe warned that the change in delivery prevented them from completing the vaccination schedule set at the beginning of this month and carrying out the first vaccination for enough people.

The health department in Hamburg, Germany, said that this change means that the vaccine vaccinated now is about 20% less than before. Melanie Leonhard, head of the department, said that the epidemic situation in this area is getting worse with the further tightening of vaccine supply.

Pfizer -BioNtech vaccine has been widely inoculated in the European Union since December 27th, 2020, but about one third of the EU member states complain about insufficient vaccine supply.

In November last year, Pfizer and BioNTech reached an agreement with the European Commission to supply 200 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine in 2020 and 2021, and the EU has the right to purchase up to 100 million additional doses. It is understood that the vaccine delivery will be carried out in stages to ensure the fair distribution of vaccines within the EU according to the terms of the contract. Vaccines for Europe will be produced at BioNTech’s manufacturing plant in Germany and Pfizer’s manufacturing plant in Puurs, Belgium.

In addition to reducing the supply due to the "six doses per bottle" regulation, Pfizer and BioNTech issued a statement on January 15 this year, saying that in order to achieve the goal of increasing vaccine production, the company changed its production process, which would "temporarily affect" the vaccine delivery progress from the end of January to the beginning of February.

Domenico Arcuri, Commissioner of the Emergency Committee of Covid-19, Italy, said earlier that Pfizer will cut the vaccine dose delivered to Italy by 29% from January 18th, and this situation will continue after this week.

Will the "saved" dose be supplied to developing countries?

The decrease in supply caused by the adjustment of production process, coupled with the impact of the new European Medicines Agency（EMA） guidelines on the dosage of each bottle, has led to increased tension between Pfizer and BioNTech and European governments.

Arcuri said that Italy planned to take legal action against Pfizer "in the next few days". "The vaccination work cannot be slowed down, especially for Italians who have already received the first dose of vaccine."

Some EU member states have called on the EU to take a tough stance against Pfizer and other vaccine suppliers. An EU diplomat said: "We need the European Commission not only to act as a coordinator with pharmaceutical companies, but also to negotiate with them on behalf of 450 million Europeans." The official also said, "Only by taking a tough stance can 70% of adults be vaccinated before summer."

Pfizer and the European Commission held an emergency conference call on January 18th to discuss how to ensure that all countries can extract the sixth dose of vaccine from each bottle and the future production schedule.

In a statement to the Financial Times, the European Commission said that Pfizer and BioNTech "must respect" the vaccine delivery reached with the EU. The European Commission "very much welcomes" the extraction of the sixth dose from a bottle of vaccine, but at the same time emphasizes that it is not allowed to waste any dose or bottle of vaccine.

People familiar with the matter told the Financial Times that according to European Medicines Agency（EMA）’s guidelines, Pfizer believes it is only fair to fulfill its contractual obligations with European countries and supply the remaining doses to developing countries.

1905 movie network news With the grand opening of the 9th Beijing International Film Festival, Alfonso Cuarón, as one of the three filmmakers focused by the "Focus" unit of the film festival, will show two of his works at the film festival. Alfonso Cuarón, who won two Oscars and the Golden Globe Award for Best Director in the United States, is undoubtedly a successful foreign director in Hollywood, bearing the pinnacle of his endless homesickness, and is determined to introduce to the mainland.

Alfonso Cuarón used "Rome" to remember the past honor and set off expectations.

There is no doubt that the two works shown at the Beijing International Film Festival are Alfonso Cuarón’s representative works. Sons of Man and, which are both sci-fi themes, contain Alfonso Cuarón’s thoughts on the future and science, while Rome is the director’s memory of the past. Alfonso Cuarón, who is used to doing a lot of study and research before shooting, was more concerned with inner excavation when preparing Rome. He once said: "This film is to cooperate with my past and face my past directly, which makes me have to explore more private private areas. There are 90% scenes in the film, which have long been invisible in my memory. More directly, in fact, this film is also a process of reshaping self and reshaping collective memories. "

Alfonso Cuarón was born in Mexico City, and he has been in Hollywood for many years. He returned to his hometown of Mexico for filming this time, and reached the peak of his career with "Rome". Up to now, Rome has won 120 awards and nominations, including the Golden Lion Award at the 75th Venice International Film Festival, the best director, the best cinematography and the best foreign language film at the 91st Oscar, as well as many heavy awards such as the british independent film awards, the New York Film Critics Association Award and the Golden Globe Award in the United States. The honorary Rome has also set off the expectations of many film critics and mainland fans.

The picture is simple and magnificent, and the feeling is pleasing to the eye. An epic film praising women.

Alfonso Cuarón, who is always full of all kinds of metaphors in the camera, brings this trait to the extreme in Rome. Rome, which uses black-and-white images and natural lighting effects, can bring the audience a simple but magnificent impression, such as a slowly opening picture scroll. In Alfonso Cuarón’s seemingly restrained but affectionate camera language, this film brings the audience an epic film praising women.

The film tells the story of Cleo, a young maid, who works for the Sophia family who has been separated from her husband for a long time. Cleo and Sophia, two women of different classes, are hurt and betrayed by the other half almost at the same time. In Mexico, which was in turmoil in the 1970s, they seemed to be weak, and faced the hardships of life with tenacity and courage. The whole film is full of strong feminist colors.

Natural resources such as land, ocean and energy are the material basis, space carrier and energy source of economic and social development. In the new year, how to ensure that these natural resources elements and macro policies work together to support high-quality economic development? How to firmly hold the red line of 1.8 billion mu of cultivated land and ensure national food security? What new progress has been made in building a beautiful China where man and nature coexist harmoniously? Wang Guanghua, Minister of Natural Resources, accepted an exclusive interview with a reporter from CCTV.

Optimizing the guarantee of resource elements and stabilizing the economic market

　Wang Guanghua said that since 2022, faced with the impact of unexpected factors, the CPC Central Committee and the State Council have adopted a series of macro-control measures to maintain overall economic and social stability. In order to implement the deployment of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, the Ministry of Natural Resources has issued a series of policies to ensure the use of land and sea elements, which strongly supports the stabilization of the economic market.

Accelerate the compilation of land spatial planning at all levels to provide spatial planning basis for the landing of major construction projects. The delineation of three control lines, namely, the national red line for the protection of cultivated land and permanent basic farmland, the red line for ecological protection and the urban development boundary line, has been completed in an all-round way, and the first "multi-regulation" national land spatial planning outline has been compiled, making arrangements for the national spatial development, protection, utilization and restoration pattern.

Continue to adhere to the land elements to follow the project, and enhance the pertinence of land use planning. For the project land included in the key protection, the planning indicators will be directly allocated when the land is approved; For other project sites, indicators will be arranged according to the local digestion of existing construction land, which will force the use of existing land to be revitalized.

Take unconventional measures, combine the use of advance land use, commitment system and other security policies, and promote the implementation of effective investment in important projects.

Accelerate the approval of land use and sea use, support the real economy and related industrial industries to reduce the cost of land use, and so on.

At present, the effects of various policies have been shown, and many projects will be started in an all-round way this year, which will play a huge role in stabilizing growth and promoting stable economic development. Wang Guanghua also specifically told reporters that in 2022, there was no legally established regulation project that started due to the impact of land use and sea use.

Appropriately increase land planning indicators to ensure major projects.

In 2023, the Ministry of Natural Resources will conscientiously implement the major deployment determined by the Central Economic Work Conference, continuously optimize the policy of ensuring natural resources elements, and work together with macroeconomic policies to promote the overall recovery of economic operation.

What are the supporting policies in 2023? Wang Guanghua is clear:

In 2023, land planning indicators will be increased, major projects established in the 14th Five-Year Plan will be supported to accelerate construction, and modern infrastructure construction in urban agglomerations and metropolitan areas will be supported.

By increasing the efforts to revitalize the use of historical reclamation, priority will be given to ensuring the use of sea for major projects and people’s livelihood projects; New reclamation continues to be strictly controlled, but the demand for sea use for major national projects is guaranteed.

Promote the "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services" reform of land use approval authority, so that provincial governments have greater autonomy.

Launch a new round of domestic prospecting for strategic minerals in an all-round way to ensure national energy security

Strengthening the domestic exploration and development of important energy and mineral resources, increasing reserves and increasing production, and improving the national strategic material reserve support capacity are one of the important tasks deployed by the Central Economic Work Conference.

China, as a big manufacturing country, must take the energy rice bowl into its own hands in order to develop the real economy. According to relevant statistics, some important mineral resources in China are highly dependent on foreign countries. Once the international situation changes, it will inevitably affect China’s economic security and even national security. In the past decade, China has promoted the implementation of the Strategic Action Plan for Prospecting Breakthrough (2011-2020), and accumulated 1.7 billion-ton oil fields and 21 billion-cubic meters of gas fields. This year, the Ministry of Natural Resources will highlight the shortage and bulk strategic minerals, focus on important oil-gas-bearing basins and key metallogenic belts, launch a new round of domestic prospecting for strategic minerals in an all-round way, speed up the exploration and development of energy resources such as oil and gas, and ensure the safety of national energy and mineral resources.

Adhere to the coordination between ensuring resource security and protecting green mountains and green hills. Wang Guanghua said that he will organize and implement the strategic reserve project of mineral land, promote the increase of reserves and production, and enhance the long-term support capability of strategic mineral resources. For the strategic mineral resources potential areas within the red line of ecological protection and nature reserves, the state will invest in key exploration, and then use them as strategic reserves for future generations or for coping with extreme situations. At this stage, we will focus on protecting green mountains and green rivers, and in the future, technological progress can give consideration to both up and down before mining.

Strictly observe the red line of cultivated land and promote the green transformation of economic and social development

Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to consolidate the foundation of food security in an all-round way, fully implement the responsibility of the party and the government for food security, firmly hold the red line of 1.8 billion mu of cultivated land, and ensure that Chinese’s rice bowl is firmly in its own hands. In 2022, the national total grain output reached 1.37 trillion Jin, which effectively responded to the uncertainty of the external environment with the certainty of stable domestic production and supply.

Wang Guanghua said that the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attached great importance to the protection of cultivated land, stressed the need to protect cultivated land like a giant panda, and adopted hard measures of "teething" to ensure that 1.8 billion mu of cultivated land deserved its name. The Outline of National Land Spatial Planning (2021— In 2035), it is also clear that the national farmland protection task target is 1.865 billion mu, which will remain unchanged until 2035. Wang Guanghua said that withCompaction, stabilization, optimization and legislationThese eight words resolutely curb the "non-agricultural" of cultivated land, effectively prevent the "non-grain" of permanent basic farmland, and take many measures to ensure that this goal is achieved as scheduled.

Compaction, stability and optimization of legislation to ensure national food security

Compaction:Protection responsibility of compacted cultivated land. According to the deployment of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, responsibility letters will be signed at different levels, and the party and government will share the responsibility for farmland protection, and strict assessment, one-vote veto on major issues and lifelong accountability will be implemented.

Stability:Stabilize the total amount of cultivated land. Fully implement the "two balances and one freeze", the cultivated land occupied by non-agricultural construction should be balanced, and the cultivated land converted into other agricultural land and agricultural facilities construction land should be balanced. For those occupied by illegal construction, the same amount of supplementary cultivated land indicators should be frozen to ensure that the cultivated land can be used stably for a long time.

Optimization:Optimize the layout of cultivated land. Taking villages and towns as a unit, we will promote the comprehensive improvement of land in the whole region, so that the spatial layout of agricultural production will be more in line with the natural geographical pattern and agricultural production laws, and all kinds of agricultural production will be in their proper places.

Legislation:Accelerate the legislation of farmland protection. In 2022, farmland protection legislation was launched, and this year, the legislative process will be accelerated and promoted as soon as possible, so as to protect farmland and ensure national food security with a stricter rule of law system.

Increase ecological protection and restoration to help build beautiful China.

With the increasing efforts of ecological protection and restoration in China, great strides have been made in the construction of beautiful China. As the main department responsible for ecological protection and restoration, the Ministry of Natural Resources continues to implement the integrated protection and restoration project of mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, grass and sand to enhance the diversity, stability and sustainability of the ecosystem.

Wang Guanghua told reporters that just last month, the "China Landscape Project" was selected as one of the first ten "flagship projects of world ecological restoration" by the United Nations, which showed our concept of respecting nature, adapting to nature and protecting nature internationally and effectively spread the ecological civilization thought of the supreme leader. 　　　　　　　　　　　　

According to the latest data, from 2016 to 2022, the country implemented 44 "landscape projects", involving natural ecosystems such as forests, rivers, wetlands, lakes and coastal zones, and the accumulated ecological protection and restoration area reached 3.5 million hectares. According to the Ministry of Natural Resources, this year, a number of "landscape projects" will be launched in the Yangtze River and Yellow River basins, focusing on national key ecological function area, the red line of ecological protection and nature reserves, and a beautiful scene of harmonious coexistence between man and nature will be vividly displayed in China.

In the future, about 50 national parks will be built throughout the country.

China’s ecological space control has become stricter, and the red line of ecological protection has been basically completed, covering the key areas of biodiversity protection in the country. Wang Guanghua said that the State Council has approved the spatial layout plan of national parks, and will gradually build a number of national parks throughout the country to accelerate the formation of a nature reserve system with national parks as the main body.

Activating the potential of geographic information data to serve the new format of digital economy

In addition to farmland protection and ecological protection and restoration, geographic information industry is also the industry in charge of the Ministry of Natural Resources. Wang Guanghua said that with the improvement of science and technology, all aspects of our lives can enjoy the convenience brought by geographic information technology, such as mobile navigation, bike-sharing and smart travel. Not long ago, the CPC Central Committee and the State Council issued opinions on building a basic data system and giving full play to the role of data elements, which provided a rare opportunity to activate the potential of geographic information data. China Geographic Information Industry Development Report 2022 shows that the total output value of China’s geographic information industry will reach 752.4 billion yuan in 2021, which has become a new growth pole of China’s digital economy.

This year, the Ministry of Natural Resources will focus on overall development and safety, and continuously enhance the ability of surveying and mapping geographic information data acquisition and service support; Comprehensively carry out the construction of real-life three-dimensional China and smart city spatio-temporal big data platform to provide a unified spatio-temporal data base for digital China and digital economy; Promote the transformation of data resources into data assets, and give full play to the important value of spatio-temporal data as a new production factor.

Key words for next year’s work: stimulating vitality and releasing potential

For next year’s work, Wang Guanghua wrote eight words to stimulate vitality and release potential.

Wang Guanghua said that China’s economy is strong in resilience, great in potential and full of vitality, and its long-term positive fundamentals have not changed. After the state optimizes and adjusts the epidemic prevention and control policies, social production and life will be accelerated, the vitality of the market will be further stimulated, and the potential of economic growth will be fully released. We will continue to optimize the protection of natural resources, strengthen national food and energy security, further promote the green transformation of economic and social development, and promote the overall recovery of economic operation.

(CCTV reporter Zhang Qin Wang Wei Cui Xia Tan Zhenhua Yu Di Jaco Zhang Hao Liu Shijun Li Ziguo Shao Chen Fei Wentao Yin Lisha Sun Xiran)

Produced by CCTV, Iqiyi and Haohan Entertainment, the spring scenery is produced, starring Qian Sun, Zhai Zilu, Liu Lin and Tian Yu, starring Li Naiwen, Ceng Li, Jia Bing and Huang Man, starring Liu Guanlin, Li Jiaqi, Lin Jing and full stop, starring Feng Bing and Deng Kai, starring Li Qing, Qi Yuchen, Liu Xiaobei and Li Yutong, and Li Jianyi and Fang Qingzhuo.

This story of two generations’ youth growth, which is based on the oil field base, outlines a real and vivid "Linqi Oil Field Base" by breaking through the typed narrative style, full of warm and cheerful perspectives, and resonating visual aesthetics. With the perspective of the protagonist Cheng Miaomiao (Qian Sun), it leads countless audiences into a "parallel world" experience journey about youth, growth, family, dreams and reality.

In the play, the younger generation, represented by Cheng Miaomiao, Li Si (Zhaizi Road), Cheng Yaya (Li Qing), Yuan Shanqing (Qi Yuchen), Qiang Xiaowa (Liu Xiaobei) and Hu Qiumin (Li Yutong), are eager to get out of the bondage, while Jia Daiyu (Liu Lin), Cheng Pengfei (Tian Yu) and Yang Songbai (Li Naiwen). Their quiet life is full of challenges and changes with the encouragement of dreams and the joining of new members. Two generations of five families have ushered in different degrees of self-reconciliation and growth in their true self and ideal self, warm family and realistic society, stable life and changing future.

From the perspective of looking back, build a story of youth growth with intertwined ideals and reality.

"Youth in the Wind" unfolds her youth story for the audience from the perspective of Cheng Miaomiao. The story focuses on the fact that under the triple impetus of adolescent agitation, changes in the times and the choice of college entrance examination, Cheng Miaomiao, Li Si, Cheng Yaya, Hu Qiumin and others constantly want to break away from the shackles from the outside world, think about future life choices and have new stories with new friends.

The play not only presents the growth experience of teenagers, but also has the youth story of parents’ generation. Taking the parents’ young past as an incision, it shows that young people in different times have a desire for freedom, but with the increase of life experience, the youthful impulse gradually turns into the pursuit of life stability with the passage of time. Parents pursue stability, and teenagers yearn for the vast world. When two generations of different ideas collide fiercely, the inherent balance of life will be broken, and various contradictions and disputes between parents, couples and friends will follow. The windward teenager finally chose to resist the heavy pressure, stick to his ideal to the end, and blow away the layers of obstacles in the torrent of growth with firm belief.

Sketch various group images, highlighting that each generation has its own windward growth.

Youth in the Wind conveys the core and values of youth, growth and life to the audience through the stories of five families and two generations. The director presents the life stories of two generations to the audience with a relaxed and lively life style. Because of the different background of growing up, life experience and the environment of the times, different roles in the play have different reasons even if they make the same choice. The teenagers in team Lin Qi are eager to go out of their hometown and go to a bigger city. The children who grew up in a family full of love and freedom simply want to know the outside world with a curious mind, while the children who are quarrelling and stressed at home are motivated to "go out". In the process of growing up, teenagers will gradually grow and change their mentality with the change of family relations and the emergence of parents’ old memories.

Everyone has a life topic about growth, and they will also try their own way to smooth the regrets of life, pursue their ideals, and realize their own windward growth. Like Cheng Miaomiao, Li Si, Hu Qiumin, Cheng Yaya, Yuan Shanqing, Qiang Xiaowa and others in the play, everyone is more self-centered when they are young, and they all want to get rid of the shackles from family or environment and yearn for freedom. But when freedom really comes, they face unimaginable challenges, and at the same time, teenagers have given birth to unprecedented courage.

People can’t have youth and feelings for youth at the same time, but Youth in the Wind shows the audience the ongoing youth of the younger generation through the youth stories of two generations, and also lets the audience see the zigzag imprint of youth in the life of their parents. The drama uses the stories of Cheng Miaomiao, Li Si, Jia Daiyu and Cheng Pengfei to encourage people to face up to the problems of life and growth, to look at changes from a positive perspective, and more importantly, to stick to their original hearts and dreams no matter how the age and times change.

　　According to the data of the National Bureau of Statistics, there are about 200 million flexible employees in China. How to solve the social security problem for such a huge flexible employment group? What are the difficulties for flexible employees to participate in insurance? Recently, a survey of 1,502 respondents released by the Social Investigation Center of China Youth Newspaper shows that the high personal payment fee is the main reason for the difficulty of participating in insurance for the interviewed flexible employees, followed by the difficulty of ensuring continuous payment and easy to cut off payment.

　　In this survey, flexible employees accounted for 65.5%.

　　The high personal payment fee is the main reason why the interviewed flexible employees do not pay social security.

　　In late July, the summer heat in Beijing was strong. At three or four o’clock in the afternoon, the takeaway buddy ushered in a short break. On the street of Dongzhimen, the reporter interviewed several takeaway brothers randomly. When it comes to social security, they said that there is no social security. Some takeaway brothers know the "five insurances", but it is not clear which five are specific.

　　Liu Hongliang, whose hometown is in Shandong, has been delivering food in Beijing for one year, and he has never had social security. "There are old people and young people. Although he can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month, he spends a lot. It is a great burden to pay one or two thousand yuan in social security."

　　What are the difficulties for flexible employees in participating in insurance? According to the survey, 55.7% of the respondents feel that the fees paid by individuals are too high to afford. Interactive analysis shows that 57.5% of the flexible employees surveyed think so.

　　Yuan Yang, a 25-year-old takeaway brother, said that the company had paid social security before sending a courier in his hometown, but it was cut off after arriving in Beijing. Referring to the reason, he said frankly, "It won’t take long to send takeout, and maybe he will leave one day."

　　Li Xianhuan, born after 1995, who lives in Huizhou, Guangdong Province, is a freelance writer. When he was working in Beijing before, the company paid social security, but he didn’t renew it after leaving his job years ago, and now he is in a state of suspension. "I’m a little confused about why I have to pay social security and I’m not sure what I can get from it." Li Xianhuan feels that it is not worthwhile to spend several thousand yuan on social security every month after leaving the company. "Now I mainly consider getting cash, and I won’t think too much about the future."

　　According to the survey, the participation rate of social security for flexible employees is low, 50.0% of the respondents think that it is difficult to ensure continuous payment, and it is easy to cut off payment. 38.8% of the respondents think that the system is not perfect and the protection for individuals is limited, and 33.7% of the respondents say that they are not clear about where and how to handle it.

　　Others are: in order to get more money (33.0%), the social security transfer and connection procedures are complicated (32.4%), and the employer refuses to handle them (20.8%). 4.9% of the respondents said that they simply don’t want to pay them, so they feel it is unnecessary.

　　What inconvenience will it bring without social security?

　　Zhang Fan, a 28-year-old blogger after graduating from university, has been in a state of flexible employment and has never paid attention to social security issues. As he grows older, he admits that he will consider his future life and hopes to have some security. "My health is not very good. Now this job often needs to stay up late, which will cause great loss to my body. I will consider joining medical insurance and endowment insurance in the future."

　　"Delivery is a high-risk job, and falls and injuries are common." Liu Hongliang said that the platform has limited the delivery time of each takeaway. Because the delivery fee of each takeaway is higher than that of the normal time, the rider will desperately grab the order at this time, and there are many orders in his hand. If he wants to deliver it within the specified time, he must speed up. "I was hit by someone the other day, and I rested at home for three or four days. Now I have to apply medicine every day."

　　Regarding insurance, Liu Hongliang said that when going online every day, the platform will automatically deduct 2.5 yuan’s accident insurance fees, but for what situation, Liu Hongliang is not very clear. "No one reports minor injuries, and I am not sure how much I can report major injuries."

　　What inconvenience will it bring without social security? According to the survey, 56.2% of the respondents are worried that it is difficult to protect from occupational injuries, and 50.0% of the respondents said that they could not receive relevant subsidies. Others include: affecting children’s schooling in the city where they live (47.1%), having no pension when they retire (43.9%), and being restricted in buying a house (40.6%).

　　After 1995, Zhou Jun Ling once worked as an anchor. She said that when she first entered the business, she didn’t know anything about social security, and she felt that it didn’t matter whether she paid or not. Moreover, she found that many small companies did not pay social security during the probation period of employees, and it was difficult for ordinary workers to defend their rights. It seems that it is not uncommon to not pay social security.

　　According to the survey, 83.0% of the respondents care about whether the employer pays social security for themselves when looking for a job.

　　"I want to buy a house in Chengdu, but the condition of buying a house is that I need to pay social security for two years in a row without a hukou. Therefore, I have been paying social security, which costs about 1,500 yuan per month. " However, Zhou Junying admits that his social security has been paid off for some time. "For freelancers, it is difficult to guarantee continuous payment because of the lack of fixed units. I have also tried to open a company to pay social security myself, but I can’t afford it."

　　57.8% of the respondents hope to reduce the payment base or proportion of flexible employees participating in insurance.

　　Zhou Junling thinks that for many flexible employees, it is undoubtedly a "huge sum" to pay more than 1,000 yuan in social security if they earn three or four thousand yuan a month. "Although it is already the minimum payment standard to pay about 1,500 yuan per month, I personally think it is still a bit high. However, I don’t know much about social security, and I don’t know if there is room for downward adjustment. "

　　It is convenient for flexible employees to participate in insurance. 57.8% of the respondents hope to reduce the payment base or proportion of flexible employees. 55.7% of the respondents expect to break the barriers of region and household registration and allow them to participate in insurance in their places of employment. 54.4% of the respondents suggest dividing multiple insurance payment grades for flexible employees to choose independently.

　　Others include: combining individual contributions with government subsidies, paying more and making up more, paying less and making up less (50.9%), gradually eliminating the obstacles to cross-regional transfer of social security (49.6%), giving a certain buffer period for the payment of social security, allowing payment or renewal (42.8%), establishing a one-stop digital service platform, simplifying enrollment procedures (32.2%) and increasing publicity.

　　Li Xianhuan feels that there are many systems now, but some systems are not interoperable, which makes people feel more complicated and chaotic, and will form a higher psychological threshold. "When I was in Beijing before, I was particularly afraid of going to the hospital because I was not sure whether I could see a doctor at the scene, so I would call to ask if I needed to make an appointment and what number to hang before I went." Li Xianhuan believes that the current social security system also has the problems of opacity and high processing threshold. "If there is no company to handle it, it may be difficult for you to find out how to pay it." Li Xianhuan hopes to establish a special website or platform, which clearly indicates the handling process by means of menu, so as to make the system more humanized and convenient.

　　Zhang Fan is troubled about how to pay social security for individuals. "I haven’t learned about social security before, but I always feel it is a very troublesome thing, such as where to pay, what procedures are needed, whether to pay monthly or yearly, and how much to pay at a time. I don’t know how to handle it. I hope I can have clear guidance."

　　In the survey, 77.6% of the respondents think it is necessary to set up a special insurance system for flexible employees.

　　Li Xianhuan thinks that it may be necessary to learn again to establish another system, so it is best for the new system to be connected to the existing system and form an integrated handling process.

　　Respondents in this survey accounted for 21.8% after 00, 48.8% after 90, 23.6% after 80 and 5.9% after 70. 34.5% came from first-tier cities, 37.8% from second-tier cities, 20.2% from third-and fourth-tier cities, 5.5% from counties or towns, and 2.0% from rural areas.

Special feature of 1905 film network　 "Very comforting, very comforting!"

In the face of the box office success of the film, the original author published a document in Weibo, which was very gratifying.

At present, the total box office of Antique close encounter of mahjong has reached 350 million, ranking first in the box office list in December. The film scored 8.9 points on the ticketing platform and 6.3 points on Douban Film.

　

While winning praise for its visual spectacle and suspense comedy elements, the success of the film’s drastic adaptation of the original book has also triggered heated discussions between book fans and fans.

　　

Coincidentally, almost at the same time as Antique close encounter of mahjong, the drama "The Wind Rises in Luoyang", which was also adapted from Ma Boyong’s novels, was also broadcast online, with a score of 7.0.

From the birth of Hidden Dragon of the Three Kingdoms Secrets, to the fame of The Longest Day In Chang’an, and then to the double release of Antique close encounter of mahjong, there has been a real "Ma Boyong fever" in the film and television circle, and there are more than ten related projects to be shown and developed.

Why is Ma Boyong IP popular? What are the difficulties in film adaptation and where is the future?

Emphasis and difficulty

How to adapt Antique close encounter of mahjong?

　

Antique close encounter of mahjong, one of Ma Boyong’s representative novels, has four volumes, which were published in succession from 2012 to 2015. In the 1990s, the elements of antique identification, collection, forgery and deception were fused in one furnace, and a vast and complicated antique Jianghu was built.

The director said that the adaptation of Antique close encounter of mahjong was based on the martial arts sense and Jianghu spirit in the original work. However, it is not easy to visualize the first novel with more than 200,000 words into a two-hour image. The creative team mainly started from three aspects.

　

One is stories and characters. In order to bring freshness to the audience, the film simplifies and adapts the process of treasure hunting decryption in the original, making the clues more simple and clear, and reducing the characters and plots accordingly.

　

The hero, Wishing for a Wish, is an ordinary antique shopkeeper in the original work, but in the film, director Guo Zijian compares it to Ling Huchong in the legendary swordsman, contrasting the decadence in the early stage with the awakening in the later stage, which makes the drama more prominent.

Emotional refinement and sublimation are also crucial. The film strengthens the hidden elements of father-son affection in the novel, making a wish goes hand in hand with the "father-son affection" between Xu Yicheng and Fu Gui, and also raises the inheritance of father and son to the level of national emotion, setting off a higher theme of protecting national treasures and inheriting traditional culture.

The second is the visual presentation of the text. How to visualize the description of a large number of antique knowledge in the original works, Guo Zijian chose the form of "literary play and martial arts shooting". Combining action, special effects and soundtrack, the process of treasure detection and treasure capture is made into an action drama with a sense of rhythm and picture.

Among them, the scene of wishing and taking medicine is like a master’s trick in a martial arts film, which is regarded as the "master" of this shooting method.

　

The third is the setting of props. Most of Ma Boyong’s works have detailed and vivid descriptions of scenes, details and sense of time. How to present the features of the antique industry in the 1990s in the original works? The film has made great efforts in setting scenery and fine arts, and built wonders such as the city of Xue Huaiyi, and used hundreds of genuine antiques to add real texture.

　

For the above adaptation, Ma Boyong also wrote a comment on the Weibo after watching the film: "The screenwriter made great efforts in adaptation, but he grasped the core wisely. The special effects interpretation of Jianbao several times is amazing. I didn’t expect to have such a freehand expression, which is a unique advantage of the film … There are regrets, but in terms of proportion, flaws don’t hide Yu. "

This is also the feeling of many book fans. Generally speaking, the film is a relatively qualified film, but there are also some problems, such as too large adaptation of the original, the logic of the new plot part can not stand scrutiny, and the characters are relatively thin and faceless.

　

From words to images, changes in length and form bring both advantages and limitations, which is also the difficulty of adaptation.

Word of mouth is uneven

The Gains and Losses of Ma Boyong’s Film and Television Works

　

Before the movie "Antique close encounter of mahjong" and the series "The Wind Rises in Luoyang", Ma Boyong’s works have been put on the small screen many times.

Those who have met with the audience include Hidden Dragon in the Deep, three series of Antique close encounter of mahjong, The Longest Day In Chang’an, and the two-season animation Whale Ride.

What are the characteristics and advantages of Ma Boyong’s works? Why do film and television circles favor Ma Boyong IP so much?

　

On the one hand, Ma Boyong has published dozens of literary works, covering fantasy, history, suspense, reasoning and other fields, since his first novel "The Wind Rises in Longxi" in 2005.

　

In the creation of historical themes, he is good at relying on real historical materials, giving birth to vivid "little stories" in the "gap of official history", looking at big history from a small perspective, and forming his own "historical possibility novels" and "textual research suspense literature".

For example, the starting point of "Fifteen Days in Beijing" is a 40-word record in "Ming History". Ma Boyong combined imagination to develop Zhu Zhanji’s speedy journey from Nanjing to Beijing on the 15th into a novel with 700,000 words.

　

Although the characters and stories are mostly fictional, the historical details and logic involved in the works are well documented. When writing The Longest Day In Chang’an, Ma Boyong searched a large number of life history, political history, financial history and archaeological reports of the Tang Dynasty, and restored the authentic Chang ‘an City.

On the other hand, "modernity" is also a major feature of Ma Boyong’s historical novels. He once concluded: "The most important thing for readers to read historical novels after thousands of years is resonance, that is, the times."

The era of his little people’s life may be the year before last, but the joys and sorrows, ups and downs of life can resonate with ordinary audiences.

At the same time, Ma Boyong also believes that writing pays attention to the sense of rhythm and fluency of pictures and plots, which is more suitable for film adaptation. His favorite suspense, fantasy, reasoning and other types are also popular in the market, and my own online celebrity attribute adds a "sense of network" to his works.

　

It has both textual research and imagination, which balances literariness, commerce and entertainment. In addition, historical and traditional cultural themes are conducive to enhancing the artistic value and cultural connotation of the works, so it is expected that Ma Boyong will become the "beacon" of film and television adaptation.

However, judging from the broadcast works, except The Longest Day In Chang’an, most of them have a mediocre reputation. IP advantages may not necessarily translate into high-quality film and television works.

　

Ma Boyong’s novels focus on depicting the historical space environment and humanistic features, bringing a strong sense of presence, and most of the film adaptation also focuses on exquisite and elegant service. The exquisite reproduction of the prosperous scene of the Tang Dynasty and the film sense of "The Wind in Luoyang" are also the main reasons for the drama’s praise.

However, if persuasion is a "flower", there must be an excellent script as a "brocade" to be called "icing on the cake", which is also the shortcoming of the above works.

　

The Secret of the Three Kingdoms magnifies the elements of love and brotherhood, and weakens the scheming part, which is accused of mediocrity. The drama version "Antique close encounter of mahjong" was well received for its performance in "Face-to-Face Casting" with a wish, but the second half of the script was criticized for being lengthy and procrastinating.

"The Wind Rises in Luoyang" is also criticized by people and stories. Some people lament that the rhythm is fast and compact, while others think that the characters are relatively thin and the plot is mysterious.

　

In contrast, The Longest Day In Chang’an’s success lies in the rationalization of the original work on the basis of amazing clothing and audio-visual language, with a solid suspense setting, main characters and narrative.

After Antique close encounter of mahjong.

"Ma Boyong Universe" on the road?

　

According to incomplete statistics, there are more than ten film and television projects related to Ma Boyong waiting to meet the audience, including movies, television, animation, live entertainment, and the themes also cover history, suspense, fantasy and so on.

　

Among them, more attention is paid to the drama series "The Wind Rises in Longxi" directed by and starring. Lu Yang directed a TV series for the first time, and it is expected whether he can shoot the wonderful tactics and spy war in this masterpiece of Ma Boyong.

There is also Daming under the microscope, which started in September and directed and starred. It is worth mentioning that the original work is a historical documentary work, which comes from the folk archives of the Ming Dynasty and is not a fiction. Ma Boyong will also be deeply involved in the planning, and make this special theme film and television.

　

As the only live-action movie in the cinema, it is equally eye-catching. Ma Boyong will personally act as a screenwriter and collaborate with director Cao Dun again to present the story of juvenile growth with Dunhuang history and culture as the background.

From the above list, it is not difficult to see two major trends of IP film and television development in Ma Boyong.

First, Ma Boyong’s participation is deepening. The team leader once said in an interview that future projects will be divided into two categories: literary IP development and pure film and television planning.

Literary IP development includes adaptations such as Fifteen Days in Two Beijing and Daming under a Microscope. Pure film and television cooperation is the project of Ma Boyong’s literary script creation, such as "film and television first, then novels", "The Wind blows in Luoyang" and "Bianjing", and "Dunhuang Hero", which is the screenwriter directly.

The second major trend is the "one fish eats more" of the same IP. Taking "The Wind Rises in Luoyang" as an example, apart from online drama, iQiyi will also develop derivative works such as animation, online movies, documentaries and comics, as well as multiple forms of expression such as script killing, VR game experience stores, theme hotels and stage plays to create a complete "Luoyang IP World".

At the same time, "Luoyang Series" also belongs to "Ancient Chinese City Universe", which will also include IP such as "The Wind blows in Luoyang", "The Thirteen Lines in Guangzhou", "The Wind blows in Longxi" and "Two Days in Beijing" to show the historical culture and regional characteristics of China.

In May this year, Sunac Culture also announced that it would cooperate with Ma Boyong to develop the "Millennium Peach Blossom Garden" IP, and develop animated dramas, live-action dramas and animated films, which is expected to achieve real-life landing.

These IP long-chain development plans undoubtedly provide more imagination space for "Ma Boyong film and television universe", but whether the heat and volume of related IP and the quality of each work can support the development of such multiple long-chain projects will test the creativity and ability of the creators.

"Ma Boyong fever" still reflects the strong dependence of film and television creation on IP. However, in the face of uneven word of mouth, the development of related works in the future should have "cold thinking". "The adaptation of Ma Boyong’s works" is not a gold-lettered signboard, but an excellent script, excellent production and superb performance of actors are the essential elements of "the next explosion".

aboutInternational Day for Disaster Reduction

>>Establishment of the International Day for Disaster Reduction:

　　According to the website of the Ministry of Education on January 21st, recently, the Ministry of Education issued the Notice on Promoting the Qualification Reform of Primary and Secondary School Teachers for Normal Students, implementing the decision of the the State Council Executive Meeting, continuing to deepen the "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services" reform, and continuing to carry out the reform of the examination-free accreditation of normal students in relevant colleges and universities on the basis of the reform of the examination-free accreditation of education graduate students and public-funded normal students.

　　The notice pointed out that according to the conditions for running a normal school and the audit results of running a school, the scope of the examination-free certification reform is delineated. Relevant normal majors in colleges and universities that joined the pilot provinces of the national primary and secondary school teacher qualification examination reform in 2017 and before can participate in the examination-free certification reform from 2022.

　　The circular requires that institutions of higher learning that implement the examination-free accreditation reform should establish and improve the assessment system of normal students’ educational and teaching ability, and classify and determine the teaching sections and disciplines according to the talent training objectives of normal majors. It is necessary to increase investment in normal education, integrate resources, and constantly improve the quality of training normal professionals. We should conscientiously do a good job in the issuance of the "Certificate of Teachers’ Professional Ability for Normal Students" and the submission of relevant data for the identification of exemption from examination. Education administrative departments at all levels should strengthen supervision, strengthen the quality monitoring of the training process and results of normal students, and guide colleges and universities to do a good job in the assessment and identification of normal students’ educational and teaching ability.

　　The notice stressed that if the relevant colleges and universities arbitrarily expand the scope of exemption from examination, or fail to issue the "Professional Ability Certificate for Teachers of Normal Students" for unqualified students, or neglect their duties or engage in malpractices for personal gain in the reform of exemption from examination, they will cancel the qualification of exemption from examination for relevant normal majors in accordance with the regulations, reduce the enrollment indicators of relevant normal majors in schools, and investigate the responsibilities of the main responsible persons and related personnel of schools.

China’s reform and opening up has brought many precious revelations to the world, one of which is that a country and a nation must advance in the logic of historical progress and develop in the trend of the times if they want to revitalize.

"Heaven has its regularity" and "it is good to treat it with governance". At the opening ceremony of the 2018 annual meeting of Boao Forum for Asia, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader explained that the success of China’s 40-year reform and opening up was due to the logic of historical progress.

[Interpretation]

"There is regularity in the sky" and "it is good to be governed by it", which comes from the opening sentence of Xunzi’s Theory of Heaven. "There is regularity in the sky, not for Yao’s survival or for Jie’s death. It should be good for governance, and it should be fierce for chaos. " The original meaning is: Nature has its own operating law, which will not exist because of Yao’s sagacity, nor will it die out because of Jie’s tyranny. Dealing with it in a reasonable way will bring auspicious results; Dealing with it in an unreasonable way will lead to disaster.

As an outstanding materialist thinker at the end of the Warring States period, Xunzi absorbed and borrowed the thought of "knowing the truth" from Taoism. Laozi’s Tao Te Ching said: "Knowing the truth is always clear. I don’t know often, I am arrogant and fierce. " Taoism advocates "heaven is natural" and believes that there are objective laws in nature that are not transferred by human will. Laozi called this law "Chang" and thought that people would be wise only if they "knew Chang" (that is, mastered the law). If "I don’t know how often" acts recklessly, it will inevitably lead to fierce disasters and be punished by nature. On this basis, Xunzi put forward the viewpoint of "heaven is always normal", which criticized and denied the Confucian thought of "divine right of destiny" to a certain extent, which was of great historical significance.　

[Interpretation]

Every great social change is based on ideological emancipation. At the end of 1970s, whether to carry out reform and opening up or stick to the rigid dogmatic system was a life-and-death multiple choice before the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China.

At the critical moment, our party’s historic decision to implement reform and opening up is based on a profound grasp of the future and destiny of the party and the country, a profound summary of the socialist revolution and construction practice, a profound insight into the trend of the times, and a profound understanding of the expectations and needs of the people. It is precisely because we grasp the general trend of historical development and seize the opportunity of historical change that we have achieved a great leap and created many miracles in the history of human social development.

Over the past 40 years of reform and opening up, China has gone through hundreds of years of modernization in developed countries. Today, China has become the world’s second largest economy, the largest industrial country, the largest commodity trading country and the largest foreign exchange reserve country. Science, technology, education, culture and other undertakings are booming, and its international influence, appeal and shaping power are increasing day by day. The Chinese nation is closer to the goal of great rejuvenation than at any time in history.

China’s great achievements in reform and opening up over the past 40 years fully prove that the road of reform and opening up conforms to the historical requirements of the people of China for development, innovation and a better life, and conforms to the trend of the times of people all over the world for development, cooperation and peaceful life. It is a basic national policy that we must adhere to for a long time. As General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Reform and opening up is the only way for the development and progress of contemporary China and the only way to realize the Chinese dream."

An era has its own problems, and a generation has its own mission. In today’s world, there are still many unstable and uncertain factors, unprecedented challenges, and anti-globalization trends are constantly emerging. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out in a strategically advantageous position: "We should not be blinded by flowers or clouds when we look at the world, but should take a close look through the telescope of historical laws."

Standing in the new historical position, we must grasp the development course and logical evolution of reform and opening up from the "depth of history" and deeply understand that reform and opening up conforms to the great logic of historical progress, so as to better grasp the historical laws, recognize the general trend of the world, conform to the trend of the times, and constantly push forward the reform and opening up in the new era.
