In the domestic market, it has won the title of the top seller in this field for 22 years in a row. Due to the high market share of its products, there has been a saying that "there are only two kinds in China, one is called, and the other is called". Being able to make it popular in China naturally has its unique charm. On March 19th, it also opened up a brand-new market segment in China-Chinese off-road. As the first model in this market segment, gun off-road also attracted consumers’ attention.

It is understood that the off-road gun will be officially launched in the second quarter of this year. As a product specially designed for off-road, the off-road gun will be equipped with an original winch with a towing mass of 9,500 pounds. Three handles, wading throat, COO crawling mode, TAB tank turning around, plus seven all-terrain driving modes, many functions of gun off-road equipment are also applied for the first time in China, which truly meet the requirements of all-weather, all-road conditions and random switching of the whole scene.

It is worth mentioning that the off-road expert mode has been added to the gun off-road. Under extreme conditions, by pressing the P close button continuously, the off-road expert mode can close electronic control systems such as P, TCS traction control, VDC vehicle dynamic control, DTC dynamic traction control, RMI rollover prevention, etc., so that extreme off-road is no longer limited by electronic systems and enjoys the ultimate fun of off-road.

The gun is the first one in China with multiple rear mounts, which improves the comfort and gives consideration to off-road performance. As an advanced version of the gun, the off-road system of the gun has been upgraded again, with K-MAN shock absorption and adjustable height. At the same time, it is equipped with KO2 and armor to enhance off-road performance and protect the safety of vehicles at all times.

In terms of intelligent safety configuration, gun off-road is also not disappointing, and the new car is equipped with six, reaching the high-end safety level. Bosch’s latest 9.3 version P, ACC adaptive cruise, AEB initiative, LDW lane keeping, and a new generation of intelligent network connection system, etc., let the gun escort every adventure.

In addition, in response to this epidemic, the off-road artillery also comes standard with CN95 air filtration, and it has passed the authoritative certification of China Automotive Research Institute. For particles over 0.3 micron, the filtration efficiency is over 95%, providing users with medical-grade defense technology and effectively blocking the invasion of viruses and bacteria.

In terms of appearance, the black wheel eyebrows connected by rivets are used in gun cross-country, which makes the whole body form an aggressive wide-body effect and gives a unique violent aesthetics with the 18-inch one. The large-capacity cargo hold is specially designed with black matte metal, which is durable and practical and suitable for all kinds of adventure scenes. On both sides of the rear bumper, black metal pedals specially designed for high-strength off-road are convenient and ensure passability. In addition, the rear trailer hook and 220V power socket are also indispensable practical configurations when off-road.

Undeniably, gun cross-country has received extensive attention from the industry since its debut. Especially during the 11th of last year, the car completed the T3 Challenge of Alashan Heroes’ Club in the original state, instantly detonating the off-road circle. Last year, 99 off-road guns were pre-sold in limited quantities and sold out in less than half a day, which shows their popularity.

I believe that with the official launch of the new car in the second quarter of this year, more domestic and overseas consumers can enjoy the unique charm brought by Chinese style.

　　Since the National Bureau of Statistics released the main economic data for the first quarter of this year on April 18th, various provinces have released local data one after another recently.

　　According to The Paper’s incomplete statistics, as of April 21st, at least 17 provinces including Beijing, Tianjin, Shanxi and Ningxia have released their economic data for the first quarter of this year.

　　From the data point of view, the GDP of Zhejiang, Sichuan, Hubei, Hunan and Shanghai in the first quarter of this year exceeded 1 trillion yuan.

　　In terms of year-on-year growth rate, 13 of the 17 provinces are higher than the national data (4.5%), namely Jilin (8.2%), Ningxia (7.5%), Hainan (6.8%), Inner Mongolia (5.6%), Tianjin (5.5%), Hubei (5.1%) and Qinghai (5.1%). Among them, Jilin Province performed brilliantly, with a year-on-year growth rate of 3.7 percentage points higher than that of the whole country.

　　Earlier, the National Bureau of Statistics released data on April 18, and preliminary accounting showed that China’s gross domestic product (GDP) in the first quarter of this year was 28,499.7 billion yuan, an increase of 4.5% year-on-year and 2.2% quarter-on-quarter over the previous year at constant prices.

Original stories FM stories FM included in topic # 61 career stories

Aizhe press:

My friend Theo is an eccentric person. He always studies some particularly obscure knowledge. Once, I heard that he bought a title in an online shop in a country.

Theo: I’m Theo, from the north of China, and now I live overseas.

At that time, it was 2014, and only three titles were sold: one was called Lord, which is generally translated as "Lord" in our country; One is Baron, or "Baron"; There is also a man named Count, that is, the Earl.

At that time, I was surprised: this kind of thing can still be bought? As a Chinese, the word that comes to mind is "selling officials and titles".

I picked and chose, and felt that Lord (Lord or Lord) was a little low in status and Count was a little expensive. So I decided and bought the title of Baron.

■ Theo title certificate bought by Theo.

What kind of country is it that actually sells titles on the Internet? This aroused my strong curiosity.

Baron Theo told me that the name of this country is the Principality of Ceylon, so I went to Google. The moment I saw the photo, I was shocked.

■ Panorama of the "Principality of Silan"

Theo: The Principality of Sealand is located on the sea in the southeast of England. It was founded on a British naval fortress during World War II. Its founder was Roy Bates, who declared the sovereignty of this place.

From the photos, it seems that saying it is a "fortress at sea" is a bit flattering. I think it’s like two huge concrete pillars supporting an iron plate, and the area of this iron plate is not much larger than that of a basketball court.

But let’s call it a fortress for the time being, because people used to be a fortress. During World War II, Germany often sent bombers to bomb London. At that time, the plane didn’t have a GPS positioning system, so how did the Germans find London?

-just by the naked eye. The pilot first found the mouth of the Thames, then went up the Thames and found London.

When the British see it, since you always come to the mouth of the Thames, I’ll just build some anti-aircraft guns at the mouth of the Thames and wait for you to come.

So Britain bombed and sank several berthed ships at that time, built a fortress on each sunken ship and set up anti-aircraft guns on it.

■ Fort at sea

But after World War II, the battery was demolished, leaving only one deck and abandoned at sea.

Among them, the deck called "Stormy Castle" was spotted by Roy Bates in the 1960s.

Theo: Roy Bates believes that since this place used to be a base and was in the sea, not only did Britain not declare it as its territory, but no country declared its occupation right, then it was an ownerless territory. Theoretically, the ownerless territory is the sovereign owner who occupies it first.

So he found a group of people, rented a boat, arrived at the sea fortress and occupied it. He announced the establishment of the "Principality of Ceylon" and designed his own national flag and emblem. He also established a national motto: E mare libertas (Latin: freedom comes from the sea), and even wrote the constitution of the Principality of Siland.

Knowing this, I am still a little confused. Find an unwanted deck at sea and you can build a country? Can the founding of the country be so casual? Moreover, this is on the coast of Britain. How can the British government tolerate such treason? How did the Principality of Sealand exist today? I am very curious and especially want to interview them.

But I did a little research and found that Roy Bates died in 2012 and his wife died in 2016. The current monarch is Prince Michael Bates (Michael Bates). I sent an email to the prince with a try attitude. I didn’t expect the prince to reply soon and accepted my interview with pleasure.

This makes me a little nervous, after all, it is the first time in my life to interview the head of state.

Just to be clear, considering that many listeners may have a little trouble listening to English, I asked Peng Han to give Prince Michael a voice.

-1-

Say hello to the prince

Edgar: Should I call you Your Highness, Prince Michael, or Michael?

Michael: Brother, just Michael. It’s no big problem. You can call me whatever you want, but you have to bear the consequences, you know.

The prince is very approachable, and he is quite joking. Is his last sentence a joke? )

The prince introduced me to the historical background. It turned out that his father had occupied other fortresses before "Nu Tao Bao".

The history of pirate radio

Michael: Before that, my father built a radio station on another fort called pirate radio. Because in Britain at that time, if people wanted to listen to songs on the radio, they had to listen to the BBC. On the other hand, the BBC only arranges an hour for children to play pop songs (such as Top 20 charts) at around 6 pm every Sunday.

At that time, there was a great demand for pop music, and the BBC broadcast time was too short, so some people moved radio stations to ships and decks-places where they could broadcast in the sea three miles away from the shore, and broadcast pop songs to the whole UK. Because according to the British law at that time, the government had no right to manage these radio stations more than three miles offshore.

These radio stations are so popular that they can even sell advertising space to make money. Later, the British government amended the law and declared these pirate radio illegal. So my dad found a new place-here now.

declare independence

Michael: On September 2, 1967, on my mother’s birthday, my father made my mother a princess in a very romantic way, and then declared independence here.

■ Old Bates and his wife Joan raised the flag of the Principality of Silan for the first time.

Michael’s father Roy actually consulted a lawyer before doing this, and the lawyer told him directly that you can’t do this.

Roy asked him, why not?

Michael: The lawyer said to my father, I don’t know why you can’t do this, but you really can’t.

My father still refuses to accept, "Why not?"

The lawyer said, "They will put you in a prison in London, convict you of treason, and then cut off your head.". (Laughter)

However, my father finally did it.

Seeing that someone dares to make independence when they occupy a platform, the British government is in a hurry: what if someone else follows suit? It seems that something must be done.

Michael: At that time, there was another fortress. After the British government sent a boat to blow it up, it passed us and warned that "you are next".

However, things didn’t develop like that.

Have a conflict with my father’s friend

As we all know, there are few peaceful and independent countries in history. Usually accompanied by war. Although the principality of Silan is small, local conflicts to defend the country have been constant.

The first opponent the Bates family met was Roy Bates’ partner. Because the two of them originally occupied this platform together to run pirate radio, but Roy Bates actually abandoned his partner and became king on his own. The partners are very dissatisfied.

Michael: When we came here, there was actually another pirate radio family here. We drove them away by non-violent means. But then these people came back and attacked seven or eight times.

I was 14 years old. I made a shotgun out of a steel pipe, searched for materials on the deck, pieced together incendiary bottles, and ran around the ship, looking for cover to launch an attack … Now I think about it, these experiences are quite interesting.

■ Michael and Old Bates as children.

First clash with the police

It is not enough to repel the partners, and the British government has not given up its attempt to overthrow Bates’ regime. Once, while old Bates was away, a naval ship came to Fort Nu Tao.

Michael: Once, they sent a navy ship here with two policemen besides the navy. At first we thought it was an ordinary policeman, but later we found out it was a military police.

They offered to talk to us on the deck, so we threw a rope down as a rope ladder.

I was young at that time, facing the police, so I trusted them. I said, "Don’t come up, I’ll go down. My mother stayed on it. "

One of the policemen said to me, "Your father has sold us this fortress. We’ll send two marines up, so you don’t have to come down. "

I was a little skeptical when I heard it. So I came down and asked me to see my dad before I could let them go up.

But they said that they must go up anyway.

At this time, they found that it was too dark under the deck to stop the ship. So I offered to help them stop the boat.

But the captain was a little anxious, and with a wave of his hand, he said, "Stop sailing! You two go straight up! 」

The two policemen were ordered to climb the rope ladder at once.

If the rope ladder is put on the boat, it is no different from the general ladder and is easier to climb; But this rope ladder is hanging, so it is not easy to climb, and it has to be clever. In a word, the "James Bond" sent by these two governments climbed no more than one meter and gave up.

I was a little nervous, so I started to walk next to the rope ladder and said to the captain, "Brother, I have to go up. 」

Hearing this, the captain immediately ordered the navy soldiers to climb the rope ladder.

As soon as I saw this posture, I immediately shouted at my mother, "Mom, if they climb up, you can shoot them!" When my mother heard this, she immediately took out an automatic pistol.

When the captain saw it, he waved his hand again: "Navy! Get off the rope ladder! 」

At this moment, I felt that if I didn’t leave again, I might not be able to walk away, so I walked to the rope ladder carelessly and climbed up quickly.

In retrospect, this thing is quite interesting. Even later, the captain shouted at my mother, "I want to get your son a job in the navy. Let him be a navy!" "(Laughter)

Store materials for six months

It is not easy to defend the territory. Apart from external troubles, there are also internal worries. Think about it, living on the sea 10 kilometers away from the coast, without water, electricity and food. The Bates family must ensure that there is always a six-month material reserve on this platform. All materials have to be shipped from land, which is quite expensive.

So they also studied how to fish by reading books and made use of all kinds of resources they could find to survive on it.

In 1968, a British naval patrol boat entered the territory of the Principality of Sealand. Old Bates and Michael fired warning shots at them and threw incendiary bottles at the boat. As a result, they were later ordered to stand trial by a British court.

But in the end, the court declared that they had no right to intervene in the incident because it happened outside British territorial waters.

This case demonstrates Britain’s non-intervention attitude towards the Principality of Sealand, which allowed the Bates family to spend the next nine years peacefully.

Until a sunny morning in August 1987.

coup

Michael: At that time, my dad was talking about business in Salzburg, Austria. He planned to build a leisure island, but it hasn’t been done yet. So I stayed alone in the principality of Ceylon.

Suddenly, a huge Dutch Airlines helicopter flew in with a cameraman holding a camera on the door. They couldn’t land because there was a flagpole under us, so they hung two people down with a rope.

Seeing the man hanging from the rope, Michael began to understand what was going on.

Over the years, old Bates has conferred some titles on officials. In fact, they are all friends or partners, half-jokingly conferring titles. Among them, a foreign minister was appointed. He was a West German named Alexander Achenbach. This time, old Bates went to Austria to talk business, which was fooled by this foreign minister.

But he was tricked by the foreign secretary. After the foreign minister cheated him away, he sent several German and Dutch mercenaries to take the opportunity to occupy the Principality of Sealand. Therefore, this is an out-and-out coup.

Why did Michael begin to understand at this time? Because one of the people who got off the helicopter was Winfred Brings, who was the attendant of the Foreign Minister.

Michael: To make a long story short, after an operation, I was put in a very airtight iron room with only two windows for four days.

The next morning, the gang gave me three choices, either to stay in this iron house; Either follow the fishing boat, they will send me to London; Or send me to the Netherlands-look at this posture, our country has been controlled.

At that time, I thought, if my dad didn’t know the situation here and came back from Austria, wouldn’t he die?

So I chose to go to England. As a result, the captain of the Dutch fishing boat said that he would not go to England for the time being. So I said, Holland can do it.

After several twists and turns, I returned to London from Holland. By the way, when I flew back to England from Holland, I didn’t bring my passport with me, but I found a big brother to help me with it.

Back in London, I finally met my dad. He didn’t know exactly what happened, but he felt something was wrong. So after we met, we began to discuss how to take back our country.

We had a rubber inflatable boat at that time, so we thought about making a fire escape and putting it on the boat. After we drove past, we rushed up with the ladder, just like soldiers attacked the castle in the Middle Ages.

I called a good friend, who is the owner of a helicopter company. We have a very good relationship and used to go to his house for dinner.

This guy is very unusual. He has participated in several James Bond movies, such as flying a helicopter indoors. He is very professional. I asked him for help, and he said, "OK, Lao Tie, no problem. 」

We’ll buy ropes, think of various ways and do all kinds of research. Because there was no movie like Black Hawk Down at that time, we had never seen the picture of people sliding down from helicopters, so we all figured it out by ourselves …

Old Bates called a few more friends, plus his son, to form a five-person action team.

By the way, old Bates fought in North Africa, Italy, Iraq and Lebanon during World War II. He was a brave and hard-core veteran. Therefore, this kind of offensive and defensive warfare has not been played less. For him, retaking the Principality of Sealand is a small case.

Michael: In a word, we were fully prepared. We went to the airport at three o’clock in the morning and tied the rope to the seat. My dad is sitting opposite me, wearing a helmet, where he can talk to the captain. We flew over.

Later, a man who was on the deck of the Principality of Silan described to us that he saw the helicopter flying from the ground, and my father and I grabbed the rope on the doors on both sides, which looked cool.

At that time, the captain agreed with us that when the plane was pulled up, we would let go and jump, because he had to keep flying and avoid obstacles.

I had planned to fold the middle mast after landing so that the helicopter could land. But after landing, I thought that the Germans would definitely run out of the house. So I ran across the tarmac, grabbed my shotgun and rushed to the door. As soon as I saw someone running out, I slammed it with the butt of my gun.

Brother, this is the battle of Westland.

Without causing casualties, Bates’ team easily captured the Principality of Silan, and later they released most of the prisoners. Only a German lawyer named Herr Putz was left, because he held a passport of the Principality of Siland. Old Bates thought he had committed treason. It is reasonable to say that it can be shot.

■ Prisoners caught after the coup

Michael: We don’t know the background of this man, but the Germans seem to have the habit of invading other people’s territory.

Later, when the West German government heard that one of its nationals was detained, it quickly contacted the British government and said that it was on the British coast, so you should take care of it. The British government quoted the court case in 1968, saying that Sealand was not within our jurisdiction and we could not control this.

The west german government had no choice but to send a diplomat to mediate.

-8-

"indirectly recognized" by the German government.

Michael: Later, the German ambassador to Britain arrived at South London Airport and took a helicopter with my mother at his own expense to the Principality of Siland.

Before taking off, my mother asked him to be searched. He was so angry that he waved his diplomatic passport and refused to agree.

After some pulling, he finally agreed to search him. But my mother found a new problem at this moment: who will search him?

She looked around and found two handsome young policemen at the airport. So she ran over and asked politely, "Excuse me, young man, can you search this diplomat for me? 」

It’s also interesting to recall. (Laughter)

When he got to the Principality of Ceylon and got off the plane, we searched him again.

He was mad with anger. "What are you searching for? 」

We replied, "Search for weapons. 」

He said, "Don’t you all have weapons? 」

So I went back and said, "If you had managed your people well, none of this would have happened, right? 」

Later, we had a negotiation, but he didn’t take the prisoner away as he wished.

But that negotiation meant a lot to us. Brother, a German diplomat negotiated with us, which means that the German government indirectly recognizes the existence of the Principality of Silan.

After all, the appearance of West German diplomats represents the first time that the Principality of Silan is on an equal footing with sovereign countries, which is a milestone. The Bates were so happy that they released the German lawyer soon afterwards. This coup ended.

By way of digression, the German lawyer and the foreign minister Achenbach later set up a government in exile in Germany. The government in exile is also good at doing business. They sold many passports of the Principality of Ceylon, which were later involved in some international crimes. In 1997, the Bates family simply declared all passports of the Principality of Sealand invalid.

As mentioned earlier, in 2012, old Bates died, and in 2016, Michael’s mother died. Michael succeeded to the throne and became the monarch of the principality of Ceylon. Until today.

Princess sealand

But after so many years, what good is it to go through all kinds of hardships just to keep an iron plate?

I don’t know anything else. I only know that this is very helpful for "chasing girls."

Shi Dongmei: My name is Shi Dongmei, and now my name is Dong Mei Bates.

I’m 49 years old. I’m Michael’s wife. After I got married, my name was "Princess Ceylon".

Yes, the princess is Chinese. It’s called … What winter plum? Yes, Dongmei Bates, married with the chicken, married with the husband’s surname. However, considering our understanding habits of Chinese, we still call her by her real name, Shi Dongmei.

Shi Dongmei went to England in 1999 and worked in a casino near Chinatown in London. Then I met Michael on the dating website. But because Shi Dongmei’s work is very busy, they have never had a chance to meet.

Shi Dongmei: Michael once gave a radio interview to the BBC. He said that after the interview, he would come to see me at my workplace. I was so busy that day that I almost forgot. When I was free, we sat together and chatted, and he told me his story.

As soon as we met, Michael told Shi Dongmei that I really wanted to associate with you. I am a prince, and my country is called the Principality of Ceylon.

Shi Dongmei: He said that he was writing a book, Hollywood was going to make his film, and so on.

I looked at him for a long time, puzzled, and didn’t understand what this man was saying. I even thought he was joking with me, and I felt like a bird in the sky.

Later, I found out that he read my information on LinkedIn website. When I got home, I also went online to check his information, and I gradually learned about his stories.

Shi Dongmei and Michael met in 2016. Less than a year later, Michael proposed to Shi Dongmei. Shi Dongmei became a happy Dongmei Bates.

Shi Dongmei: I have a similar background to him. Because I was a soldier at the age of 13, and when he was 13, he was taken to the Principality of Silan by his father, so we hit it off, we both have stories and a lot in common.

Now, as soon as my friends see me, they joke about "seeing the princess". I am speechless, but it is also quite fun.

■ Prince Michael and Princess Sealand are attending a beauty contest.

The Princess’s Two Visits to the Principality of Ceylon

Shi Dongmei: I have been to the Principality of Ceylon twice. Last year, the Daily Mail was going there for an interview, so I followed.

We went there by boat and were very excited. Because when we went up, we were hung up with something similar to a hanging basket, so it was very exciting.

When I first went there, I had just finished the August 1st Army Day. In Britain, we have a comrades-in-arms association composed of retired China soldiers, and I am the president. At that time, we had just held an activity, and there were many red flags. I insisted on taking the five-star red flag to take pictures, which is quite interesting to recall now.

In addition to catching up with girls, of course, another advantage of establishing a country is that, as mentioned at the beginning, you can make money by selling titles.

-11-

Idea selling knighthood

Michael: I thought about this before the internet age. It was not an easy thing at that time.

At that time, I saw the king of France in the 13th century. Because he was short of money for the war, he publicly sold his title to finance the war.

So I thought, our country doesn’t have any natural resources, and it has always been short of money. Why don’t you try it? Unexpectedly, the response was so enthusiastic.

I went to official website, the principality of Ceylon, and looked at their store. Shopping was quite convenient, and even Alipay supported it.

The most expensive earl title in the store now sells for 499.99. It is not cheap. My friend Theo bought the title of Baron, which is only 29.99, which is much more cost-effective.

But I think the most cost-effective thing is that you can buy a square foot of land for 19.99, which is much cheaper than Beijing’s house price.

I asked Michael how many titles he sold and how much money he earned after selling them for so many years. But he said he couldn’t tell me. It seems that the business is quite good, otherwise it would not be kept secret.

Moreover, Michael has signed a Hollywood film contract, and the copyright is estimated to have sold a lot of money.

Interesting things about other micro-countries

In addition to the Principality of Ceylon, there are actually many tiny countries that are self-reliant in this world. They are generally called micro-countries, or private countries. For these countries, my friend Theo has also done a little research.

Theo: There are many micro-countries in the United States, and some towns in Australia, with the support of the local government, announced the establishment of the "XX Kingdom" in order to develop tourism. The mayor also formally established himself as "King XX" and held grand ceremonies in local churches and town halls.

There are also some micro-countries, such as Italy, which has a micro-country called "Principality of Cyberport".

The villagers in this place found that their land had no lords after a certain year, which means that they don’t belong to any country now. So they declared their independence and established the Principality of Cyberport.

These private countries have also held several summits, such as the World Private Countries Conference. They will wear their own formal clothes and go to meetings, where they will establish diplomatic relations and sign various agreements.

Before that, some people wanted to establish the world’s first private space country. They made a website where people can become its citizens by signing up.

There is also a network private country, which is a network country based on all cyberspace and territorial disputes between countries.

There is another interesting story about private countries.

In the United States, there was a girl whose biggest dream was to be a princess, so her father searched online and found that there was a territory between Egypt and Sudan that was unoccupied. So he went there, announced the occupation of this territory and established the Kingdom of North Sudan. In this way, his daughter became a princess-the princess of northern Sudan.

■ Private National Summit

The existence of these private countries has actually added a lot of fun to the world. Like Theo, life has become colorful since he bought that title.

Theo: At that time, Game of Thrones was still a hit, and the Prime Minister was called "the hand of the king". I followed this example and made one of my friends my "Baron’s Hand", another my "Treasurer" and another my "Commander of the Army".

I bought a 1:1 replica of the sword used by the wizard Gandalf in The Lord of the Rings on the Internet, and used this sword to canonize the three of them.

I also bought a photo frame, mounted my knighthood certificate in it and kept it in the most conspicuous place in the living room. Everyone who comes to visit will run to see it and ask me curiously, "What is this?". I will give them a good introduction.

Now no matter where I go, I will take my folder and title certificate with me, because it is also my "property".

Succession of offspring

Prince Michael now lives with his family on land, 40 miles away from London by the sea. Their family is engaged in fishing business, mainly fishing and processing clams. The affairs of the Principality of Sealand are now mainly represented by sons.

Michael: I’m basically semi-retired now, and my son is taking care of everything. I have two sons, Prince Liam and Prince James, who are all involved, and my grandchildren Harry and Freddie, who I believe will take over in the future.

Many countries were born in history, and many countries died out. My wife and I got engaged in a restaurant on Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai. At that time, I thought that when the Principality of Ceylon declared its independence, Dubai was not on the map, and the United Arab Emirates was not yet born.

* The national anthem of the Principality of Ceylon is played here (32’35”) in the audio.

After listening to today’s program, if you are moved, you also went to the Principality of Silan to buy a title, which can be indicated from the story FM. This way, if the prince is happy, maybe he can give me an official position.

Gilead scientific Inc.

The symptoms of the first confirmed patient in novel coronavirus in the United States improved rapidly after using a new antiviral drug, Remdesivir. On January 31st, local time, Merdad Parsey, the chief medical officer of Gilead, the developer of this new drug, issued a statement in official website, saying that Remdesivir has not been officially listed anywhere in the world, but it is conducting trials in cooperation with the health department of China.

The statement mentioned that Gilead is working closely with the global health department to carry out appropriate experiments on the anti-epidemic effect of Remdesivir. These cooperative departments include the World Health Organization (WHO), China CDC and National Medical Products Administration, the US CDC, the US Food and Drug Administration and the US Department of Health.

The statement stressed that Remdesivir has not been approved for listing anywhere in the world, and its safety and effectiveness have not been confirmed. At the request of the attending doctor and with the support of the local regulatory authorities, after weighing the advantages and disadvantages of using experimental new drugs, Gilead provided Remdesivir to a small number of patients in novel coronavirus for emergency treatment when there was no other choice.

In addition, Gilead is cooperating with the health department of China to establish a randomized controlled trial to determine whether Remdesivir can be safely and effectively used against novel coronavirus, and Gilead will also speed up the appropriate laboratory tests.

According to the statement, although there is no antiviral data of Remdesivir against novel coronavirus at present, its performance against other coronaviruses gives people hope. Remdesivir has proved the activity of MERS and SARS virus in vitro and in vivo in animal models, and has also accumulated limited clinical data in the emergency treatment of Ebola infected patients.

Headquartered in Foster, California, USA, Gilead is a research biopharmaceutical company. Remdesivir is a new drug developed by the company to fight Ebola virus, which can inhibit RNA-dependent RNA synthetase.

According to the latest diagnosis and treatment process of the first confirmed case in the United States published in the New England Journal of Medicine, the patient received intravenous infusion of Remdesivir on the seventh day of hospitalization, and no oxygen was needed the next day, leaving only dry cough and runny nose.

It is worth noting that on January 28th, Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences and Institute of Toxicology and Drugs, Academy of Military Medical Sciences also mentioned Remdesivir. The above-mentioned institutions jointly discovered three existing drugs, namely Remdesivir (GS-5734), chloroquine (Sigma-C6628) and Ritonavir, which have good inhibitory effects on novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) at the cellular level. Its subsequent clinical use is going through relevant procedures for approval.

Original title: Keep You Safe: Warm heroism in intertextual narration

As a unique cultural phenomenon in human society, rumors map the power structure in a specific period and intervene in the operation of real society with virtual emotional shocks. The sinologist Kong Lifei’s "Calling the Soul" tells the operating mechanism of traditional social rumors; The director dissects the rumor production mode in the network age through intertextual narration that spans the cyberspace and the real society, and praises the warmth of ordinary people with heroic romantic narration.

Rumors of Intertextuality: Ethical Dilemma in Dual Narration

Wei Ping-an, the hero of the movie "Keep You Safe", lives by selling cemeteries and is down and out. His client, Han Lu, was slandered after his death. Wei Ping ‘an sees rough roads, but he also falls into new rumors. At the beginning of "Keep You Safe", the core conflict of the whole film was directly presented to the audience. Rumors that are constantly fermenting in cyberspace eventually overflow the virtual world, changing the real fate of the dead, and also holding Wei Pingan, a cemetery agent, pushing his career to the edge of a dangerous cliff.

The victims of online "yellow rumors" are the dead who can’t prove their innocence, and there are no relatives who defend the dead. They have also taken a stand by while connecting orphanages with millions of donations. Although the rumors that are hard to match will soon be "sealed by the coffin" due to the lack of discourse confrontation, and will soon be forgotten, the Internet memory mechanism of "flying geese and leaving a sound" can completely change the life image of rumor victims. It is precisely this that stimulated Wei Pingan, who could have stayed out of it. He jumped into the whirlpool of "yellow ballads" at the risk of his life, trying hard to distinguish right from wrong and to compete with the huge and secret network power.

Once involved in this grand "yellow rumor" carnival, Wei Ping-an is like a lantern bearer in the "dark forest law", replacing the late Han Lu as a new prey of online rumors — — Not only is his relationship with Han Lu distorted, but even his just "criminal record" that he was jailed for standing up for his friends will become a new rumor that cannot be said.

The intertextuality between Wei Ping-an and Wei Ping-an is the reality rumor impact that Wei Ping-an’s daughter Wei Mo faced. If Wei Mo-li, who witnessed the truth, wants to expose rumors, he will be reviled by rumor makers like Wei Ping-an and become a new "back-pot man" and "scapegoat".

The similar experience of Wei’s father and daughter directly points to the ethical dilemma in the operation of rumors. In the anonymous field of the internet, rumors are only the entrance to the carnival of words and imagination, and also the outlet for netizens to vent their pressure. The existence of rumors satisfies the spiritual pleasure of rumor producers, disseminators and onlookers. Once someone wants to deprive this pleasure, he will sacrifice himself to become a new "plaything". Internet rumors use this kind of "person-to-person" pyramid scheme to ensure their vitality and value, and also deter the intervention of rumors. In real life, rumors, through the words and physical threats of rumor makers, shield the opponents of rumors from the rumor field and are ready to swallow up the rumors at any time. Whether in virtual space or in real life, rumors are burdened with heavy mental pressure and suffer in the ideological struggle of watching and intervening.

As the film says: "When you open your mouth and say that a woman is a lady, whether she is or not, she is already." The production of rumors does not require cost, but to compete with rumors, it requires the rumors to constantly consume themselves until they fall into an ethical dilemma of self-doubt. Compared with the film directed in 2012, the breakthrough of "Keep You Safe" is to shift the focus from the victim of rumors to the rumor-maker, and to show the chain destructive power of rumors more integrally with the structure of intertextual narration, so that the audience has a deeper understanding and vigilance against rumors in the Internet age.

Romantic warmth: heroism in daily fireworks

Wei Ping-an is an elderly citizen with no special skills, who lives by selling graves in the cemetery with the help of his former friends. But it is such a humble little person who has shouldered the banner of fighting against the "yellow rumors" on the Internet without hesitation. After losing the battle for the right to speak in cyberspace, Wei Ping-an struggled with General Feng and Chairman Wolongshan, who were eager to move their graves, to gain time. On the other hand, he "hacked" Chairman Jin, the key person in the rumor spreading chain, and finally tracked down the clues of the rumor maker. Then, it was a thrilling adventure of "riding a thousand miles". After spending a lot of time, money and energy, Wei Ping-an ended the rumor with "one-man fighting".

Walking in the same direction as Wei Ping’s rumor-dispelling trip is the spiritual growth process of Wei Li, a female middle school student, from hesitation to firmness. She was bullied on campus because of rumors. Instead of falling into depression as her parents feared, she quickly revived with blood based on the belief of "doing what you think is right", which provided a firm value support for Wei Pingan, who is thousands of miles away.

In the process of breaking the two rumors, we did not focus on social organizations and schools as representatives of power discourse, but shaped little people like Wei’s father and daughter into civilian heroes against rumors. In this rumor war, as heroes, they have no weapons to rely on, only the warmth of caring for kindness in their hearts. The film’s display of Wei Ping ‘an and Wei’s inner tenacity is actually to pin the hope of dispelling rumors and stopping rumors on the audience and every ordinary person in real life.

The production and dissemination of rumors are based on people. To eradicate rumors, we must eradicate the psychological mechanism of producing rumors and spreading rumors. In the process of Han Lu’s "yellow ballads", "Mr. Perfect 421" certainly played a fundamental role, but the pursuit of self-exposure by a large number of netizens eventually turned this insignificant snowflake, which was originally submerged in the information ocean, into a snowball that crushed the real world. In the comparative narrative of spreading rumors and dispelling rumors, the film actually raises a sharp question: which producer or disseminator played a greater role in making rumors "rumors"?

At the end of the story, the late Han Lu arranged fireworks for Wei Ping ‘an in the form of a will. Naturally, this splendid fireworks is not a thank you to Wei Pingan for defending his reputation, but a thank you for the warmth he has always kept in his heart. In the fireworks all over the sky, Han Lu’s warmth to the world and Wei Ping’s warmth to Han Lu met across time and space. The heroic portrayal of Wei’s father and daughter in the film also declares a distinct value position: "Rumors stop at the wise" does not require everyone to be observant, as long as the warmth in their hearts is not lost in the information carnival, everyone can become a hero in the fireworks world.

In the "information cocoon" of the Internet and big data, the production and dissemination of rumors are easier and faster than at any time in history, and the difficulty of dispelling rumors has reached the peak of history. Everyone can be a gossip, and naturally they can also be rumors. "Keep you safe" uses a warm heroic narrative to praise the Wei father and daughter who "don’t believe in rumors and don’t preach them"; With the warmth of heroism, I look forward to everyone who is not afraid of "tempering".

　　[Editor’s note]

　　Another year of college entrance examination. The annual national unified college entrance examination is coming.

　　There are still two days before the 2023 college entrance examination. How to kick the final "one foot at the door"? Shanghai’s famous teachers have given many clever tricks to the candidates through The Paper.

　　You and I are both dark horses. May the candidates be full of passion and fighting spirit, live up to their youth and sail by dreams.

　　When candidates are nervous about preparing for the exam, their parents may be more nervous than candidates, hoping to be perfect in diet. How to prepare a reasonable diet for children and how to avoid dietary misunderstandings has become a difficult problem for many parents.

　　Ji Yuping, an advanced individual in health work in Shanghai and a health care teacher in Shanghai Gaojing No.1 Middle School, said that during the sprint of college entrance examination review, candidates need to consume a lot of energy in preparing for the exam, which is naturally inseparable from reasonable nutrition and diet every day. Good physical condition is the basis for candidates to get good grades, and a reasonable nutritious diet can effectively help candidates maintain a good learning state.

　　Ji Yuping reminded parents that nutrition, like knowledge, depends on the usual accumulation. It is not that the more good things you eat, the better. The principle of arranging meals should be nutrition, comprehensiveness, moderation and balance. As long as the diet is healthy and balanced, the food you usually eat already contains various nutrients needed by the human body, so it is not recommended to supplement health care products.

　　Five "Taboos" of Diet before Exam

　　There are still two days to go before the college entrance examination. Ji Yuping summed up five "taboos" of the college entrance examination, especially the diet before the exam.

　　1. Avoid big changes in recipes before exams.

　　Before the exam, don’t deliberately increase your diet too much, and don’t make too much changes during the exam. You should be consistent with usual. In addition, eat foods that you usually eat less carefully to avoid food allergies and intolerance. Don’t eat low-sugar and diuretic fruits before the exam.

　　2. diet is the most taboo to reduce staple food

　　Candidates’ diet should first ensure the intake of staple food, which is rich in carbohydrates. 50%-65% of the energy needed by the human body should be provided by carbohydrates in food. People who don’t eat staple food will not only feel hungry, but also affect the thinking ability of the brain.

　　3. Food should be cold and unsanitary.

　　Don’t buy things to eat in street stalls, and don’t eat or eat less cold drinks. In hot weather, parents can prepare mung bean soup, boiled water or fresh fruit at home for their children to quench their thirst. Do not eat or eat less raw and cold food such as sashimi or cold salad before the exam, and pay attention to food hygiene before eating, so as not to cause gastrointestinal diseases.

　　4. Don’t talk too much about exam topics when eating.

　　When the examinee has a meal, parents can take the initiative to talk about some pleasant topics and create a relaxed dining atmosphere, which is helpful for the secretion of digestive juice and the digestion of food.

　　5. avoid dinner before the exam

　　Recently, the number of infected people in COVID-19 has increased, so we don’t have dinner or eat in crowded places to avoid re-infection and affect the performance of the exam. Eating too much is not easy to digest, and it is mainly light before the college entrance examination.

　　So how to eat better for candidates, Ji Yuping also gave a more suitable "college entrance examination recipe".

　　Two days before the college entrance examination, especially three days before the college entrance examination, three meals a day are arranged in this way, which is nutritious and educational: a normal diet is the best tonic, and it is necessary to match the staple food with coarse and fine grain; Non-staple food, mixed with meat and vegetables. And "eat well early, eat well at noon and eat skillfully at night" is a simple but practical key to eating.

　　Eating well at breakfast helps to refresh the mind.

　　Breakfast is the basis of diet to ensure energy throughout the morning. A good breakfast should include: sweet potatoes, milk or dairy products, animal food, fresh vegetables or fruits.

　　Porridge, noodles, jiaozi and other staple foods are rich in carbohydrates, which can provide energy for the brain to use quickly, so that candidates can have a full spirit in the morning. Fried dough sticks, hemp balls, pancakes, etc. are not easy to digest because they contain a lot of fat. It is recommended to eat as little as possible for breakfast.

　　In addition, you should eat a proper amount of high-quality protein foods, such as lean slices, eggs, milk, etc. Those who are intolerant of milk and dairy products can be replaced by high-quality vegetable protein soybean products such as soybean milk and tofu brain. High-quality protein foods can not only supplement essential amino acids, increase satiety, but also prevent hypoglycemia before lunch.

　　Eating enough at lunch helps to improve intelligence.

　　Lunch is the most important meal in a day. Whether candidates can get nutritional supplements for their intense study and exams in the morning and get nutritional preparations for their hard work in the afternoon depends on lunch. On the basis of meeting children’s tastes, lunch should ensure sufficient calories and various nutrients.

　　First of all, the staple food should be sufficient to ensure the continuous supply of energy and maintain the balance between energy consumption and supply in brain tissue.

　　Secondly, high-quality proteins should be supplemented. Foods can be selected such as fish, shrimp, eggs, milk, chicken and lean meat, especially deep-sea fish, which are rich in EPA and DHA. Lecithin in EPA, DHA and egg yolk can protect eyesight, improve cerebral cortex function and enhance memory.

　　Third, we should pay attention to supplementing other nutrients, such as B vitamins, vitamin C and minerals such as calcium and zinc, among which vitamin C can promote the absorption of iron in food and increase the utilization of oxygen in brain tissue; Adequate calcium can inhibit the abnormal excitement of cranial nerve and peripheral nervous system activities, calm and prevent mania.

　　Among them, fruits rich in vitamin C such as strawberries, cherries, kiwis, apples, oranges, etc. and fresh vegetables such as tomatoes, cauliflower, bitter gourd, green leafy vegetables, etc. Foods rich in calcium include shrimp, black sesame, black fungus, milk, shepherd’s purse, amaranth, rape and so on.

　　Eating at dinner helps soothe the nerves.

　　For dinner, you should make some foods that are easy to digest and moderate in calories. The staple food should not be overeated. The dishes can be bean products, lean meat, fish, fungi and vegetables.

　　When children feel tired, they can add some peanuts, cashews and walnuts, which are rich in B vitamins, vitamin E and protein, and help to restore energy. After a whole day’s review and examination, your eyes are easy to get tired. You should eat some carrots, animal livers, dark green or red, yellow and orange vegetables, etc. These foods are rich in vitamin A, which is conducive to maintaining normal vision.
