　　Cctv newsAccording to the website of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, in April, 2020, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment issued the Guiding Opinions on Implementing the Reward System for Reporting Violations of Ecological Environment, guiding all localities to establish and implement the reward system for reporting violations of ecological environment, and requiring provincial and municipal ecological environment departments to establish and implement the reward system for reporting violations of ecological environment before the end of 2020.

　　Recently, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment reported the progress and typical cases of reporting and rewarding violations of ecological environment. At present, 30 provincial-level and 313 prefecture-level ecological and environmental departments have formulated and promulgated reward regulations for reporting. In 2020, 13,870 reward cases were implemented nationwide, an increase of 44% year-on-year; The total reward was 7.19 million yuan, up 100% year-on-year. From the geographical distribution of cases, Henan, Anhui, Sichuan, Shandong and Guangdong are in the top. From the total amount of awards, Guangdong, Hebei, Henan, Anhui and Jiangsu are in the top.

　　The Ministry of Ecology and Environment pointed out that the reward system for reporting has played an important role in encouraging people to participate in the cause of ecological environmental protection, broadening the channels for finding environmental pollution problems, optimizing the law enforcement methods of ecological environment, raising the awareness of enterprises to abide by the law consciously, and promoting the realization of "three pollution control". Through the reward system for reporting, various localities have investigated and dealt with a number of major cases, which has effectively deterred all kinds of environmental violations.

　　The Ministry of Ecology and Environment said that the reward system for reporting is an important measure to optimize the law enforcement methods of ecological environmental protection and improve the efficiency of law enforcement. All localities should further promote the implementation, make full use of the reward system for reporting, further improve the pertinence and operability of this system, and use it as a bridge between the ecological environment department and the people to further enhance the people’s ecological environment satisfaction and happiness.

　　At the same time, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment also reported 10 typical cases of implementing the reward system for reporting. The eco-environment departments of Henan, Anhui, Sichuan, Shandong, Guangdong, Hebei and Jiangsu provinces, as well as the eco-environment departments (bureaus) of Tianjin, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Henan, Guangxi and Gansu provinces (municipalities and autonomous regions), Jinjiang, Quanzhou, Fujian, Rencheng, Jining, Shandong, Dongguan, Guangdong, and Suining, Sichuan, which have achieved remarkable rewards for reporting.

　　Ten typical cases of implementing the reward system for reporting are:

　　Case 1: Tianjin Eco-environment Bureau rewarded people for reporting cases of illegal disposal of waste lead-acid batteries.

　　In July, 2020, people reported by telephone that someone illegally collected and disposed of waste lead-acid batteries at an unnamed collection point in wuqing district, Tianjin, causing environmental pollution. According to the tip-off, Tianjin Comprehensive Administrative Law Enforcement Corps, together with Tianjin Public Security Bureau, wuqing district Ecological Environment Bureau and wuqing district Public Security Bureau, responded quickly and conducted joint on-site inspection at the first time. It was found that there were dozens of tons of waste lead-acid batteries (classified as HW31 hazardous waste) at the site of the collection point. After the operators poured out some acid from the waste lead-acid batteries, they used the workshop sewer pipe to discharge them into the external environment for natural leakage. After sampling and monitoring the wastewater in the underground pipe, the pH value is less than 1, which is strongly acidic, and the total lead concentration is 10.4 mg/L. The public security organ immediately fixed the evidence and took compulsory measures against the relevant responsible persons. Tianjin wuqing district Ecological Environment Bureau investigated and dealt with the collection point according to law, and transferred its suspected environmental pollution crime to the public security organs. At present, the public security organs have arrested 44 suspects and the case is under investigation.

　　On September 27th, 2020, Tianjin Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment gave the whistleblower a reward of 200,000 yuan according to the relevant provisions of the Interim Measures for Reporting Environmental Violations in Tianjin and the Special Action Plan for Comprehensive Investigation and Remediation of Hazardous Wastes in Tianjin.

■ Cheng Manli

The word "Public Relations" is imported, which is called public relations in English, abbreviated as PR, and "public relations" in Chinese.

In the process of the development of public relations theory and practice, people explain its connotation from different angles and give many definitions. In these definitions, "public relations" has many meanings, which can be regarded as a state, an activity, a consciousness, an idea, a theory, or an art and method. For example, the Mexico Declaration issued at the World Public Relations Association Congress held in Mexico in August 1978 pointed out that public relations is an art and social science. The implementation of public relations is to analyze trends, predict consequences, give advice to institutional leaders, and perform a series of planned actions to serve the interests of the institution and the public. The Encyclopedia Britannica published in 1981 defined public relations as various policies or actions aimed at conveying information about individuals, companies, government agencies or other organizations and improving public attitudes towards them.

In China, researchers generally believe that public relations is an activity that enterprises or social organizations use various means of communication to communicate with the relevant public in order to achieve some organizational goals.

No matter what the angle or emphasis of the definition of public relations is, it contains three interrelated elements: organization, public and communication.

I. Organization

"Organization" is the subject of public relations and the initiator of public relations activities. As the main body of public relations, organizations can be all kinds of companies, enterprises, government departments at all levels, schools, associations, societies and other social groups. The reason why social organizations carry out public relations activities is because they have the goals they hope to achieve and the tasks they need to complete. Companies and enterprises carry out public relations activities in order to build brand image, improve product visibility and reputation, and gain wide recognition from consumers. The purpose of the government’s public relations activities is to establish a better information communication channel with the public, so that the major policies and important administrative measures of the country can be known to the public and translated into practical actions, thereby enhancing the credibility of the government and shaping a good image; Social organizations carry out public relations activities in order to achieve some organizational goals, such as expanding the scope of charitable donations and mobilizing more people to participate in social welfare activities; Wait a minute. It can be seen that public relations face the relationship between the organization and the public, not the personal relationship; Public relations is an organizational activity rather than a personal affair.

Second, the public

"The public" is the object of public relations and the object of public relations activities. The so-called public refers to a social group composed of individuals with common interests, and the common interests exist and change around a particular social organization. It is precisely because of the existence of common interests that people who were originally individuals have common interests, common attitudes and common cultural psychology, and they are facing common problems, hoping to achieve common goals through common actions; It is precisely because of the existence of common interests that these individuals surround specific social organizations and form relatively consistent social needs. Therefore, when making public relations plans and schemes, public relations subjects should first understand the public objects and constantly adjust their behaviors according to their characteristics and needs. Furthermore, "the public" is an individual, mass or organization directly or indirectly associated with a social organization, and they have actual or potential interests or influence on the organization’s goals and development; The development and change of the organization will have a greater or lesser effect and influence on their interests.

Third, communication

The word "communication" comes from Latin, which means "to establish a common consciousness with others". It can be seen that communication is the process of human information exchange, and it is the information transmission and sharing between people. From the perspective of public relations, communication refers to the process that social organizations use media and other means to interact with the public in order to achieve a certain goal. Communication can be carried out directly, such as face-to-face communication between people; It can also be done indirectly through various means of communication. Several main forms of human communication can be widely used in public relations activities. For example, interpersonal communication, group communication and organizational communication are generally adopted for a small specific public, for the public who need more information feedback, and for the public who expect to establish a long-term stable relationship; For a wide range of the public and those who need to get information quickly to meet the needs of knowing, mass communication can be adopted. The emergence of the Internet and the development of social platforms and intelligent media have provided a broader space and greater possibilities for the dissemination of public relations. Of course, in order to achieve the best effect, various modes of communication can be used alternately.

In a word, communication is the means of public relations activities, and it is the link and bridge between the subject and the object of public relations. Without communication, it is impossible to establish contact between social organizations and the public, let alone communicate effectively between them.

Food safety consumption tips

The long shelf life of canned food depends entirely on preservatives?

Open the lid (bag) to eat, delicious, convenient storage, recently, canned food has become a must-have item in many families’ inventory. However, an online micro-survey conducted by the reporter of China Consumer News recently on more than 200 consumers shows that most people’s comprehensive "goodwill" towards canned food is actually not too high because of the doubts that the food is not fresh, too many preservatives must be added, and too many nutrients are lost. But do these doubts really make sense? Let’s listen to experts in the field of food science.

Respondents’ cognition of canned food

Have you ever heard of soft cans?

In the era of relative scarcity of materials, canned food used to be a different flavor full of "luxury". In many memories of post-70s and post-80s, canned food is a nutritional product that can only be eaten on holidays or when you are sick.

Canned food was once a fancy food on the monotonous table of ordinary people. Almost all food can be canned. It is said that the selection of canned food is diverse, which can make people feel the richness of Manchu-Han banquet.

However, if your knowledge of canned food remains at the level of fruits, vegetables, fish and meat packed in tin cans or glass bottles, it may be a bit "outdated".

The National Standard for Food Safety "Canned Food" clearly defines canned food as a commercial aseptic canned food which is made of fruits, vegetables, edible fungi, livestock and poultry meat, aquatic animals, etc. as raw materials and processed by pretreatment, canning, sealing and heating sterilization.

Wu Xiaomeng, an associate professor at the College of Food Science and Nutritional Engineering of China Agricultural University, explained in an interview with the reporter of China Consumer News that the first meaning of canned food is sealing, and the second is to achieve commercial sterility. Its packaging can be either hard packaging represented by traditional metal cans or glass cans, or flexible packaging such as aluminum foil bags and high-temperature retort pouch, which is generally called soft canned food. For example, aluminum foil bagged vegetable bags in all kinds of self-heating foods, or prefabricated normal-temperature cooking bags such as Sichuan-flavored pork slices and fish-flavored shredded pork, all belong to the category of canned food.

Around 2000, as the earliest industrialized category in the food industry, canned food was gradually labeled as "unhealthy".

In 2003, an online list of "Top Ten Junk Foods Published by WHO" (canned food is on the list) was generally regarded as the fuse of canned food being cold among the people. Although this list has been fully falsified, it seems that it is difficult to open the tongue code of Chinese people, especially the traditional "hard cans" (metal or glass cans).

The data shows that although China’s canned food production ranks among the top in the world, the per capita consumption of canned food is less than 8 kilograms, and many people even consume less than two boxes a year.

Respondents’ purchase of canned food

Eating canned food is about the same as eating preservatives?

This micro-survey shows that 69.68% of the respondents rarely buy canned food, and 21.72% only buy it occasionally. At the same time, although 57.92% of the respondents believe that canned food is easy to store and suitable for hoarding at home, 32.58% of the respondents still believe that canned food "has a long shelf life and must have too many preservatives".

In fact, canned food is one of the few foods without preservatives or with the least amount of preservatives.

According to the National Food Safety Standard for the Use of Food Additives, except canned bayberry (propionic acid and its sodium salt and calcium salt are allowed to be added, the maximum dosage is 50g/kg), canned bamboo shoots, pickled vegetables, edible fungi and nuts (sulfur dioxide is allowed to be added, the maximum dosage is 0.5g/kg) and canned meat (nitrite is allowed to be added, the maximum dosage is 0.15g/kg), which requires very low dosage.

Then, cans that can be kept for 1 to 3 years or even longer at room temperature can be kept fresh by "frozen age".

Wu Xiaomeng told the reporter of China Consumer News that canned food actually protects food safety through sterilization technology and sealed storage. In most cases, food spoilage is caused by bacteria, molds and other microorganisms. Processing canned food by sterilization means such as high temperature and high pressure can kill a large number of these microorganisms. At the same time, processes such as venting and sealing can greatly reduce the oxygen content in food and containers, make some potential microorganisms in the containers grow stagnant, and block the passage of oxygen or microorganisms outside the containers into the containers, thus ensuring food safety. With the development of food processing technology, new technologies such as modified atmosphere sterilization and microwave sterilization have shorter heating time, lower energy consumption and more efficient sterilization.

Therefore, it is unnecessary to worry about too many preservatives in canned products. The "popular science" on the Internet that "eating canned food is about eating preservatives" is completely alarmist.

Canned food is not fresh and nutritious?

The survey found that among the respondents who "never bought" canned food, 52.94% thought canned food was not fresh.

Although some consumers began to consider choosing canned food that is easier to preserve because of epidemic prevention and control, hoarding goods at home and other factors, this did not change people’s understanding of its "stale".

In fact, the appearance of canned processing technology itself is to keep food fresh.

Wu Xiaomeng explained that foods such as meat and fish will rot quickly if they cannot be processed in time. If vegetables and fruits are not processed in time after picking, the nutrition will be lost continuously. Therefore, some brands with a relatively complete supply chain generally choose to adopt and make the ingredients at the mature stage with the largest output, and the whole material selection and processing process even takes less than 10 hours. Compared with the route of fresh ingredients from picking, transporting and selling to consumers’ refrigerators, there is no more nutritional loss.

Of course, some vitamins with low heat resistance will be lost in the process of canned food processing, but most nutrients will be preserved. Compared with the loss of nutrients caused by daily household processing and cooking vegetables, this loss is not more.

Sometimes, canned food may be beneficial to the maintenance of vitamins. For example, although canned tomatoes have been sterilized, most of the vitamin C content is still there when they leave the factory, and it is relatively stable. Another example is canned fish. After high-temperature and high-pressure sterilization, not only the meat quality and bones of the fish are softer, but also a large amount of calcium is dissolved out. The calcium content of a box of canned fish can even be 10 times more than that of fresh fish with the same weight, and minerals such as iron, zinc, iodine and selenium in fish meat will not be lost.

Why can’t "fat" cans be eaten?

In most cases, consumers are advised to buy products from regular manufacturers in large shopping malls or supermarkets, and judge the quality of canned food from the aspects of appearance, packaging, sensory quality, label and brand.

Wu Xiaomeng reminded that the cans of normal metal cans should have a complete shape, no deformation, no damage, no rust spots and a concave bottom cover; The center of the metal cover of the glass bottle can should be slightly concave downward, and the contents should be complete in shape, clear in soup and free of impurities when viewed through the bottle body.

What needs special reminder is that if you encounter the following situations, no matter how attractive the contents of the can are, don’t eat it.

One is canned "fat listening", that is, expanding cans. The main reason for tank expansion is that the inside of the can is polluted by microorganisms and produces gas. When these gases gather to a certain extent, the can will be deformed. Therefore, the can’s "getting fat" is a very obvious danger signal that it has gone bad.

Second, the canned packaging is leaking and moldy. In the process of storage and transportation, canned products will be deformed due to bumps and other reasons, and the seal of the can cover will leak, which will lead to the contact between the products in the can and the outside world, and microorganisms may take the opportunity to enter.

The survey found that 93.21% of the respondents had the right choice. However, about 7% of the respondents still thought that the collision caused by transportation was not a big problem and chose to buy and eat.

Wu Xiaomeng reminded that most canned meat and fruits and vegetables are not heavy, so it is recommended to eat them as much as possible after opening. If you can’t finish it, you should pour it into enamel, ceramic or plastic food containers, seal it with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator and finish it as soon as possible.

As for canned sugar sauces and jams, the sugar content is generally 40%-65%. Relatively speaking, it is not easy to deteriorate after opening, but it is still not careless. If you can’t eat it all at once, you should cover the jar, or pour it into other containers and seal it with plastic wrap, and then put it in the refrigerator for preservation. Try to eat it in two or three days. In autumn and winter, it can be stored for a few more days. (Reporter Li Jian)

Today (January 25th), the National Health and Wellness Commission held a press conference to introduce the prevention and treatment of respiratory diseases and health tips in winter in China. At present, the epidemic situation in COVID-19 in China is still at a low level, and the influenza activity is on the decline. The daily diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases in outpatient and emergency departments of medical institutions in China continues to decline, and the medical order is generally stable and orderly.

At present, influenza is the main acute respiratory disease in China, and other respiratory diseases are at a low level;

The monitoring data of epidemic situation in COVID-19 showed signs of rising, but the growth rate was small. The proportion of JN.1 mutant strains in local cases continued to rise, and the clinical manifestations were basically asymptomatic and mild.

Since the opening of Spring Festival travel rush in the Ming Dynasty, the risk of respiratory infectious diseases has increased, and scientific prevention and control should be remembered;

According to the duration of cough, it can be divided into three types, and the most important thing for repeated cough is to clarify the cause;

After a child has a respiratory infection, it may develop into pneumonia, especially in younger children. Be alert to some "signals" of pneumonia in children;

When traveling in winter, patients with cardiovascular diseases should be prepared in advance.

Current acute respiratory diseases

Still dominated by influenza.

At the meeting, Peng Zhibin, director of the Respiratory Infectious Diseases Department of the Infectious Diseases Management Office of China CDC, introduced that the monitoring data showed that acute respiratory diseases in China declined for two consecutive weeks after peaking in early December 2023; It rebounded slightly at the end of December 2023 and continued to fluctuate at a high level; It began to fall in the past week. At present, the acute respiratory diseases in China are mainly influenza, and other respiratory diseases are at a low level. Among them, the proportion of influenza B has increased recently, leading to a slight fluctuation in the influenza epidemic.

Experts believe that in winter and spring, China will continue to present a trend of alternating or common epidemic of various respiratory diseases, and in the short term, it will still be dominated by influenza virus. At present, influenza activity has shown a downward trend. With the school holidays, it is expected to return to the inter-epidemic level at the end of January.

National COVID-19 epidemic

There are signs of rising, and the growth rate is small.

Peng Zhibin, director of the Department of Respiratory Infectious Diseases of the Infectious Diseases Management Office of China CDC, said that the epidemic situation in COVID-19 was generally at a low level recently. From the monitoring data such as case reports and the positive rate of sentinel hospitals, there were signs of increase, but the increase was relatively small. The proportion of JN.1 mutant strains in local cases continued to increase, and the clinical manifestations were basically asymptomatic and mild, which had no significant change from the severity of diseases caused by the dominant mutant strains of EG.5 at present. It is estimated that around the Spring Festival holiday, the epidemic situation in COVID-19 may rebound to a certain extent due to many factors, such as the large-scale movement of people, visiting relatives and friends, and the increase of dinner and party activities.

repeatedly cough

Clear etiology and symptomatic treatment ↓

Li Yanming, director of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, Peking Hospital, suggested that patients with recurrent cough should go to the hospital to find out the cause. According to the duration of cough, it can be divided into three types.

The first is acute cough, which occurs within three weeks. The main reason is respiratory infection caused by various pathogens.

The second is subacute cough, which lasts for three to eight weeks, usually after respiratory infection;

The third type is chronic cough lasting more than eight weeks. Chronic cough includes respiratory diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, as well as non-respiratory diseases such as gastroesophageal reflux and taking certain drugs.

The most important thing in the treatment of cough is to clarify the cause and treat it according to the cause. Pay attention to climate change every day, add clothes in time to avoid catching cold, and don’t be too dry indoors and keep proper humidity. Avoid spicy and irritating foods or foods that are too greasy.

After the child is infected,

These conditions may point to pneumonia ↓

Wang Quan, chief physician of Beijing Children’s Hospital, said that children may develop pneumonia after respiratory infection, especially in younger children. If the child has the following conditions, he should be alert to the possibility of pneumonia

High fever persists or persists for more than 3 days.

Cough is frequent or obviously aggravated, which may be accompanied by an increase in sputum volume or a change in sputum color, such as yellow or yellow-green sputum; However, mycoplasma pneumonia often has little sputum, mainly frequent dry cough.

The breathing frequency is obviously faster, which is more urgent than usual, and there is wheezing or choking. Some children may have difficulty breathing, flapping nose, and depression in the upper sternum when inhaling. Seriously, you may have a blue mouth and a bad face. Some older children may express discomfort such as chest tightness, chest pain and breath holding.

Children will also have mental fatigue, or be agitated, crying, difficult to appease, and some may also have drowsiness.

It should be noted that when a baby suffers from pneumonia, the symptoms and signs are often atypical, and there may be no obvious fever and cough, but the main manifestations are shortness of breath, reduced or even refusal to breastfeed, or strenuous breastfeeding, spitting, frequent choking, spitting, choking, wheezing and other symptoms.

When the above symptoms and signs appear, you should take your child to see a doctor as soon as possible.

Cold wave strikes

These people pay attention to protection.

Recently, the cold wave weather has once again affected China, bringing large-scale cooling and rain and snow weather to the central and eastern regions and parts of the south. The drop in temperature can lead to the contraction of human blood vessels and the acceleration of respiratory rate, which is easy to induce diseases of respiratory system, cardiovascular system and cerebrovascular system. In cold weather, we should pay special attention to the elderly, children, pregnant women and other sensitive groups, patients with chronic basic diseases and outdoor workers, and take targeted protective measures to minimize the impact of cold wave on health. Rainy and snowy weather may lead to icy and slippery roads, which will adversely affect traffic and travel, and special attention should be paid to travel safety.

Spring Festival travel rush opens tomorrow.

The risk of transmission increases, so wear masks scientifically during the trip.

Spring Festival travel rush 2024 will be officially opened tomorrow. During this period, people’s mobility and gathering activities will increase, and the risk of respiratory diseases will increase. The National Health and Wellness Committee reminds everyone-

Prepare for personal protection before departure, wear masks scientifically during the trip, and continue to maintain good hygiene habits such as frequent hand washing and cough etiquette to minimize the risk of infection.

All localities should continue to strengthen monitoring and early warning, strengthen epidemic prevention and control of key institutions such as old-age care institutions and social welfare institutions, pay attention to key groups of "one old and one small", strengthen daily health monitoring, and implement various prevention and control measures.

It is necessary to increase the overall planning of medical resources, strengthen the preparation of commonly used drugs, testing reagents and beds in medical institutions, and meet the needs of the people for normal medical treatment.

Establish and improve the cooperation between general hospitals and primary medical institutions, the sinking of experts and the referral mechanism of patients, optimize the treatment process, reduce the waiting time of patients and improve the quality of medical services.

Travel in winter

Patients with cardiovascular diseases should make these preparations →

Xiong Changming, deputy director of the Center for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Respiratory and Pulmonary Vascular Diseases in Fuwai Hospital of China Academy of Medical Sciences, said that when patients with cardiovascular diseases go out in winter and encounter cold, they can cause sympathetic nerve excitement, vasoconstriction, rapid heartbeat and high blood pressure, and may also cause coronary artery spasm, which may aggravate the cardiovascular condition. The main potential risks include blood pressure fluctuation and uncontrollable, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction attack, aggravation of cardiac insufficiency, arrhythmia attack and so on.

Cardiovascular patients should do the following before going out in winter-

It is best to carry out relevant inspections in the hospital before going out to ensure that all indicators are in a satisfactory state.

　　Original title: The horn of Beiping liberation blows from here.

　　Military encirclement, political struggle and peaceful liberation of Peiping have become a shining example in the history of China’s people’s liberation war, which is known as the "Peiping way".

　　As an important witness of this period of history, Wuliqiao Village, a little-known village with less than 100 households, has been recorded in history. The three peace talks from the end of 1948 to the beginning of 1949 sounded the horn of the peaceful liberation of Peiping, and the last Wuliqiao peace talks completely opened the door to the peaceful liberation of Peiping. Today, the negotiation monument of Wuliqiao for the peaceful liberation of Peiping, which is erected in Wuliqiao Park on the east side of Donggao Road in Changying Township, is still telling future generations about the military strategy and great achievements of the revolutionary ancestors in the war years.

　　Overture to peace talks:

　　Military pressure and political struggle go both ways.

　　As early as sketching out the strategic concept of the Battle of Peiping and Tianjin, the Communist Party of China (CPC) took fighting for Fu Zuoyi’s uprising as an important task, and divided it into several lines to do Fu’s work.

　　Prior to this, communist party had left a "pawn" beside Fu Zuoyi. One day in 1946, Wang Yu, alias Zhang Zhigong, was appointed by the CPC Central Committee and found Yan Youwen, an underground member of the CPC who had lost contact with the party organization for seven years.

　　At this time, Yan Youwen’s position and position in Fu Zuoyi’s army is already very high. Besides being the secretary of Fu Zuoyi, he also serves as the director of the 12th War Zone Chief Department, the deputy director of the Political Department and the president of Struggle Daily, the organ newspaper of Fu Department.

　　Yan Youwen, in accordance with the instructions of the CPC Central Committee, exerted a subtle political influence on Fu Zuoyi without being exposed for small local battlefield information.

　　In the second half of 1948, the war of liberation entered a strategic decisive battle. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China thinks that the time is ripe, and under the preparation of armed struggle, he actively strives for political victory for Fu Zuoyi.

　　On a Sunday morning in early October, 1948, the leader of the Academic Committee of the South Department of Tianjin sent someone to Qianmen East Station to stop Fu Dongju, an underground member of the Communist Party of China, who was about to get on the train and return to Tianjin, and let her work in Tianjin Ta Kung Pao return to her father.

　　After returning to Peiping, Fu Dongju was surprised to find that his father was reading Chairman Mao’s works and sketched out the key points with red and blue pens, so he often secretly put the progressive magazines and books in the liberated areas on his father’s desk. Fu Zuoyi sometimes looks through it.

　　Fu Zuoyi has many misgivings. After years of war, can communist party really accept him? If the peace talks are successful, how will the subordinates who have been risking their lives for many years be placed? Fu Dongju reported to the underground party organization one by one, and then came back to persuade Fu Zuoyi carefully according to the instructions of the party organization to dispel his doubts.

　　At the same time, the underground party Committee also used Li Bingquan, secretary of the vocational youth branch of the CPC Pingjin Committee. Li Bingquan used to be the director of the interview department of Pingming Daily, the organ newspaper of the Kuomintang’s "General Suppression" in North China, and his cousin Li Tengjiu was the major director of the liaison office of the "General Suppression" in North China in Fu Zuoyi. Li Tengjiu was pessimistic about the current situation. Under Li Bingquan’s persuasion, his doubts and precautions were completely eliminated and he promised to work in Fu Zuoyi.

　　Cui Yueli, the academic committee of the underground party, also worked with Fu Zuoyi through his teacher Liu Hou in Fu Zuoyi.

　　At the end of November, the Northeast Field Army was constantly stationed around Beiping, and Fu Zuoyi was on pins and needles in his office, and his thoughts and emotions were in extreme contradiction.

　　Fu Zuoyi’s daily expression, speech, activities, and even some subtle emotional changes, such as sighing, losing his temper, and biting matches, were promptly reported to the Peiping underground party. This plays a vital role in making timely and correct judgments and decisions for the front-line headquarters of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.

　　At the beginning of December, Dongye and the Second and Third Corps of the North China Military Region of the People’s Liberation Army completed the strategic encirclement and campaign division of the enemies of Peiping, Tientsin and Zhangjiakou, and stopped the passage of Fu Zuoyi’s fleeing south and westward.

　　Fu Zuoyi felt the urgency of peace talks, so he instructed Li Tengjiu to contact communist party. The Academic Committee decided to send Li Bingquan to have secret contact with Fu Zuoyi.

　　On December 10th, 1948, Li Bingquan was invited to the Jurentang office in Zhongnanhai by Fu Zuoyi. When learning that Li Bingquan had worked in Pingming Daily, Fu Zuoyi was very surprised: It turned out that communist party people were in their own newspapers!

　　During this meeting, Fu Zuoyi finally made up his mind to negotiate, and invited Cui Zaizhi, president of Pingming Daily, as his representative, led by Li Bingquan to hold peace talks with the Chinese Communist Party. The bridge of peace talks in Beiping was quietly built.

　　The first peace talks:

　　Fu Zuoyi sent representatives to secretly leave the city.

　　On December 13, 1948, Li Bingquan secretly left the city with Cui Zaizhi and other four people. Unexpectedly, not far from the city, it was intercepted by Fu Zuoyi patrol troops, and the radio station carried by Cui Zaizhi was discovered. The reason was inconvenient, so they had to go back the same way.

　　On December 15th, Li Bingquan, Cui Zaizhi and others secretly left the city again, and Cui Zaizhi gave up the radio station. Only then did he take a bus, tricycle and walk all the way and finally reached the front position of the People’s Liberation Army. However, they didn’t meet with the people who came to the joint from the City Ministry of Industry, so Li Bingquan had to ask the passing troops to send them to the headquarters as "prisoners".

　　After several twists and turns, Li Bingquan and Cui Zai and his party finally came to Balizhuang, not far from Mengjialou, Jixian County, where the People’s Liberation Army’s Pingjin Frontier Command was stationed. Su Jing, Director of Staff Office of Northeast Field Army Command, is responsible for the reception. Su Jing recalled that it used to be a landlord’s mansion in the village. It was in the middle of winter and the weather was cold. The two sides simply sat on the kang or surrounded the fire, and chatting casually was like chatting. But both sides are very clear in their hearts and their purpose is also very clear-to understand each other’s true intentions.

　　For this negotiation, the PLA is also strictly confidential. A telegram in the Beijing Archives reads: "He, Chen, Yang and He: (1) I hope that you will send troops to send representatives of Fu Zuoyi to Sanhe via the north of Beiping to negotiate with us. (2) I hope that you will not disclose this matter to the troops, so as not to relax the combat preparation. The escort troops must keep secrets along the way, and the escorted commanders and soldiers should not know about it, so as to avoid the occurrence of individual soldiers fleeing and revealing secrets." The signature is "Lin, Luo and Liu".

　　"He, Chen, Yang and He" are the heads of the 11th column of the Northeast Field Army, namely He Jinnian, Chen Renqi, Yang Chunfu and He Tingyi, and "Lin, Luo and Liu" are the leaders of the Beijing-Tianjin Front Command, namely Lin Biao, Luo Ronghuan and Liu Yalou. Lin Biao, Luo Ronghuan and Liu Yalou telegraphed the matter to the Central Committee while arranging reception for their subordinates.

　　The Central Military Commission immediately called back and gave clear instructions on the principle of this negotiation, that is, "fighting for the enemy to lay down their weapons is the basic principle."

　　On December 19th, Liu Yalou, Chief of Staff of the Beijing-Tianjin Front Command, started formal negotiations with Cui Zaizhi. After the exchange of views between the two sides, due to the great gap in conditions, no results were obtained.

　　The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China had anticipated the outcome of the negotiations. At 16: 00 on the 16th, the Central Military Commission pointed out in the telegram to Lin, Luo and Liu, "This is only a tentative action. If Fu is sincere in negotiating, he will be represented."

　　The second peace talks:

　　Both parties initialled the minutes of the meeting.

　　As expected by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, after a lapse of half a month, Fu Zuoyi sent a negotiator for the second time-Zhou Beifeng, Director of the Civil Affairs Department of Major General "Suppression General" in North China. Zhou Beifeng, a fellow countryman of Fu, has repeatedly contacted the Communist Party of China on behalf of Fu. He was accompanied by Professor yenching university and Zhang Dongsun, vice chairman of the Democratic League. Because of the trust of both sides, he acted as a third-party representative of the peace talks to mediate.

　　Great changes have taken place in the battlefield situation in North China during the two negotiations. On December 22nd, the 35th Army, the main force of Fu Zuoyi’s clique, was wiped out in the new security area, and on the 23rd, the defenders of Zhangjiakou were wiped out. The battle between the new security guards and Zhangjiakou cut off Fu Zuoyi’s westward escape, which also gave him a great spiritual blow.

　　The time is ripe for the peaceful liberation of Peiping.

　　At this time, an episode happened. On December 25th, the Communist Party of China (CPC) published a list of 43 top war criminals in the Kuomintang army, and Fu Zuoyi was the 31st. Fu Zuoyi was very angry, pessimistic and disappointed.

　　On New Year’s Day, 1949, Mao Zedong telegraphed six opinions on Lin Biao’s Pingjin peace talks, put forward our principled position and policy, and showed our sincerity in peacefully solving the Pingjin issue. He also mentioned that Fu was listed as a war criminal, so that he could make a fuss and peacefully liberate Peiping, and we had reason to pardon his war crimes. This is tantamount to giving Fu Zuoyi a prescription for the disease.

　　Li Bingquan was ordered to recite six opinions in 450 words, and returned to Peiping to report to Fu Zuoyi. Fu Zuoyi was relieved after hearing this, and his mood improved greatly.

　　On the morning of January 6, 1949, Zhou Beifeng came to Zhang Dongsun’s house. Cui Yueli told them that the contact code was "Looking for Wang Dong" and asked Zhang Dongsun’s son to take a piece of white cloth and sew it on a stick: "Shake this flag when crossing the line of fire!" When they passed through the frontier trench, they met the PLA soldiers, so they shook the small white flag and were taken to the command post by the soldiers. They were successfully escorted to Balizhuang the next afternoon. On the morning of the 8th and 9th, they held the second negotiation with the leaders of the Beijing-Tianjin Front Command, including Lin Biao, Nie Rongzhen, Luo Ronghuan and Liu Yalou.

　　The Chinese Communist Party put forward a plan to reorganize the Kuomintang army, and let bygones be bygones for Fu Zuoyi and other insurgents. Great progress has been made in the negotiations, and the two sides initialled the minutes of the talks, and agreed on January 14 as the deadline for Fu’s reply.

　　At this time, Fu Zuoyi has not yet made up its mind. During the negotiations, it will continue to build two temporary airports, the Temple of Heaven and Dongdan. The underground comrades in the city provided information in time, and the liberation army blocked the airport with artillery fire.

　　The third peace talks:

　　Don’t talk about Tianjin, just talk about Beiping

　　In the early morning of January 12, 1949, a team of PLA men came to Wuliqiao Village (later placed in Chaoyang District), a small village with less than 100 households in Tongxian County. They rearranged the indoor and outdoor furnishings of the Zhangjia Courtyard in the village, and invited a chef from the "Dongxingju" restaurant. Suddenly, the small village became lively. People are talking about it, guessing that there may be a big shot here!

　　Because the cadres kept secrets, it was not until after the peaceful liberation of Beiping that people realized that it was representatives of communist party and Fu Zuoyi who came here at that time. The agreement for the peaceful liberation of Peiping was reached here. It turned out that the Beijing-Tianjin Front Command was moved to Songzhuang, Tongxian County, so the third negotiation place was moved to Wuliqiao.

　　On the afternoon of January 14th, as the plenipotentiary of Fu Zuoyi, Deng Baoshan, deputy commander-in-chief of North China "Suppression General", and Zhou Beifeng, director of the Civil Affairs Department, and other four people went out of the city to the Zhangjia Courtyard in Wuliqiao Village. Lin Biao, Luo Ronghuan and Nie Rongzhen, leaders of the Beijing-Tianjin Front Command, greeted them at the door.

　　On the same day, the People’s Liberation Army began to storm Tianjin, shaking the mountain and shaking the tiger.

　　As soon as they met, Nie Rongzhen came straight to the point and said: The last negotiation stipulated that midnight on 14th was the deadline for reply, and now there are only a few hours left. Today, we have given the order to attack Tianjin, and this time we will not include Tianjin, but only talk about Peiping.

　　After 29 hours of fierce fighting, the PLA wiped out 130,000 Tianjin Kuomintang troops. After Tianjin was conquered, Beiping became an isolated city, with more than 200,000 enemy troops on the defensive completely surrounded by the People’s Liberation Army, and Fu Zuoyi had no bargaining chip.

　　On the morning of January 15th, the negotiation officially started, which lasted until late at night and progressed smoothly. On the same day, the two sides reached a preliminary agreement on the reorganization plan of the Kuomintang troops in Beiping leaving the designated place outside the city, the arrangement principle of the "suppression general" in North China and the officers above the regiment level, and the reception method of the Kuomintang military and political institutions in Beiping.

　　On January 19th, according to the agreement signed in Wuliqiao, the representatives of both parties made it specific one by one, and added the text of the agreement to 18 articles and Annex 4, a total of 22 articles, which were submitted to President the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and President Mao Zedong for revision as a formal agreement. On the 21st, Su Jing, the representative of the People’s Liberation Army’s Beijing-Tianjin Front Command, and Wang Kejun and Cui Zaizhi, the representatives of Fu Zuoyi, respectively signed the Agreement on Peaceful Settlement of Problems in Peiping. 22, Fu Zuoyi signed the agreement, and delivered a radio address, officially announced the terms of the implementation agreement for the peaceful liberation of Peiping.

　　Follow-up to the peace talks:

　　Don’t disturb the masses to postpone entering the city for two days during the New Year.

　　The People’s Liberation Army originally planned to enter Beiping for defense on January 29, 1949, but considering that this day was the first day of the first lunar month, it was decided to postpone it for two days in order not to disturb the citizens of Beiping for the New Year. On January 31, the People’s Liberation Army entered the city to take over the defense, and Beiping declared peaceful liberation.

　　From 10: 00 a.m. on February 3, the People’s Liberation Army held a grand ceremony to enter Beiping. Although it was freezing, the streets and alleys were crowded with people, and the citizens of Beiping held flags and shouted slogans to welcome the PLA into the city.

　　After entering the city, the cadres and soldiers of the 41 ST Army strictly abide by the "three major disciplines" and "eight attentions". In the middle of winter, there was no fire in the room and no hay on the shop on the drafty tower all around, and the north wind blew "cold". The nearby people invited the soldiers to warm themselves at home many times, but the soldiers insisted on not entering the houses and not disturbing the masses. On the night when the "Changling Company" of the 121st Division arrived at the station, the enthusiastic fellow villagers invited the soldiers into the house to live, but they declined. In the middle of the night, the north wind roared, and the masses "combined their houses and beds" to vacate several rooms for the soldiers to live in, and the soldiers politely declined the third invitation from the masses. The story of "three invitations and three no entry" spread like this.

　　Wuliqiao negotiation has an important historical position in the history of Pingjin Campaign and even the whole China People’s Liberation War. A basic agreement was reached through negotiations to realize the peaceful liberation of Beiping, which saved the historic city of Beijing from the scourge of war and the 2 million people of Beiping from the flames of war, laying the foundation for the establishment and construction of the new capital of China.

　　The "Peiping Way" has become an example for all battlefields to learn and follow. On April 29, 1949, Datong was peacefully liberated; On June 1, Yulin was peacefully liberated; On August 4, Changsha was peacefully liberated; On September 25th, Xinjiang was peacefully liberated … This way accelerated the process of national liberation.

Wuliqiao peace talks former site

On January 31, 1949, Xinhua Daily, Taihang, published a good news that Beiping declared peaceful liberation.

On January 31, 1949, Beiping was peacefully liberated. On February 3, the general public warmly welcomed the People’s Liberation Army into the city.

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.
