Time is a butcher’s knife, which makes people old.

But when this knife touches my favorite bean, it is still a bit unacceptable.

The actor of "Young Malfoy" in Harry Potter used to be handsome and aggressive in the movie, but now his face is rapidly aging in his early 30 s, attracting many netizens to shout: How did young Malfoy suddenly become "Old Malfoy"?

On the other side of the continent, in eastern Asia, the situation is quite the opposite. For example, some time ago, Nicholas Tse, the "young male god" who was searched on the same box with Ding Zhen, is now 41 years old, but he still looks like a teenager. With Ding Zhen, who is 21 years old, it seems that the two brothers are not at odds.

So, why do Europeans and Americans (especially white people) look old when they are young, while Asians of the same age (especially yellow people in East Asia) look relatively young?

The reason for this difference is the large inventory

1. Racial genes

● MC1R gene

A study in Modern Biology has confirmed the relationship between perceived age and genetic genes. In Dutch and British people, there is a significant correlation between DNA variation in MC1R gene and perceived age. The variation of MC1R gene will make them look two years older than their actual age.

● Facial skin and facial features structure

The relative advantages of Europeans and Americans’ faces are clearer contours, more three-dimensional facial features and better looking on camera. But at the same time, it also suffers from the loss of collagen with age, and it is more prone to problems such as fine lines, dryness and depression.

Anne Hathaway, less than 40 years old, looks older.

(But it is said that this picture has been sharpened.)

A study on the characteristics of aging face of indoor working women in China and France shows that the average time of facial wrinkles of French women is 10 years later than that of French women.

Compared with Europeans and Americans, Asians not only appear wrinkles later, but also have thicker collagen layers, with gentle facial features and round and full faces, so they look younger.

However, the skin characteristics of Asians are not absolutely perfect, and it is easier for them to have decrees and sagging skin structure at a young age. Compared with Europeans and Americans, they are more prone to tanning and yellowing.

(Kong Xiaozhen, 2 years older than Anne Hathaway)

In addition, Europeans and Americans are generally tall (especially the Dutch, who are jokingly called 2m per capita), giving people a very mature feeling, while Asians are relatively petite and tend to look young.

Therefore, many compatriots go abroad to study, work and travel, often like "straying into a giant country" and being regarded as minors or child laborers by foreigners.

2. Living habits

● Like outdoor sports, sunbathing and tanning.

Asians have always regarded white as beauty, so they pay great attention to sun protection. Europeans and Americans, on the other hand, like to tan their naturally fair skin with wheat color and bronze color through outdoor sports, sunbathing, tanning, etc., thinking that it looks "healthy" and is a symbol of status (wealth).

But in fact, this is not healthy at all. The whiter the skin color, the easier it is to get sunburned and get old (on the contrary, the darker the skin, the easier it is to get tanned, but it is more anti-aging).

Pure sunlight without any sun protection can easily lead to a series of skin problems such as polymorphic solar rash, solar urticaria, chronic actinic dermatitis, pigmented diseases, and even skin cancer.

(Sunburn and photoaging)

Low expression.

Europeans and Americans are used to using exaggerated mood, actions and expressions to express their feelings (Oh my God), but long-term exaggerated expressions may cause and deepen expression lines.

At first, expression lines only appear when making dynamic expressions (that is, dynamic lines). Over time, facial muscles are repeatedly folded and become static lines, which take root on the face and will not disappear even if you don’t make expressions.

3. beard and body hair

Due to environmental factors affecting racial genes, Europeans and Americans are generally born with thicker chest hair than Asians. At the same time, they also like to grow beard, chest hair, leg hair and other body hair, which is considered very sexy, mature and manly (daddy-like).

However, our Asian people don’t have so much hair, and we are also used to trimming beard and leg hair, which looks clean, tidy and refreshing.

(The same person, from fresh meat to uncle, only needs a pile of beard and body hair)

4. Baldness and alopecia

It goes without saying who looks older with sparse and bald hair and thick hair.

In China, the proportion of male seborrheic alopecia is about 19.75%, but in Europe and America, the proportion of seborrheic alopecia basically increases with age. About 30% of 30-year-old men suffer from this problem, and about 50% of 50-year-old men have seborrheic alopecia.

Seborrheic alopecia runs in families, such as Prince William of England, his father Prince Charles and his grandfather Prince Philip, all of whom are typical seborrheic alopecia patients.

5. obesity and diet

Because the diet structure in Europe and America is mostly fried and baked sweets, and healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables are much more expensive than junk food, many Europeans and Americans are seriously overweight and completely out of shape.

Moreover, some studies have shown that high-fat diet can cause inflammatory damage through skin oxidative stress, which will lead to skin aging.

Being fat may really look old, while people with well-proportioned bodies will look younger and more energetic than obese people as a whole.

For example, chestnuts, Xiao Lizi and Gong Yoo are typical representatives of uncles in the East and the West, but Gong Yoo, who pays attention to diet and is keen on fitness, has always kept a good figure, giving people the illusion that they are not the same generation, but they are actually only a few years apart.

6. Aesthetic culture

Most European and American women like smoky heavy makeup, which makes them more mature and deep. Asian women generally prefer light pink makeup to create a pure and pseudo-plain look.

(They are all great beauties, but the makeup is still light and the makeup is more tender)

In addition, European and American costumes, as well as cultural traditions such as European and American teenagers’ early contact with dance activities, will also make them look older than their actual age (while most of our Asian friends wait until they work in universities to concentrate on dressing up and socializing).

(Millie in 2004 vs Angie Chiu in 53, age difference is 51 years).

Experiences and habits of skin care and anti-aging that can be used for reference

Although we are indeed younger than Europeans and Americans, aging is the only way for everyone in the world, and it is inevitable for everyone. We will eventually usher in the moment of getting old.

There are also some Europeans and Americans who are young, while some Asians are very old, in which acquired maintenance and makeup and hair styling play an important role.

Moreover, as mentioned above, Asians are more prone to dark yellow tanning and sagging face, so we can’t completely ignore skin care and anti-aging.

Therefore, from the above inventory of the reasons for the differences in aging degree between Europeans and Americans and Asians, we can learn from the fact that by scientifically caring skin and dressing up, we can delay the skin aging speed and look younger than our actual age and peers:

● Daily cleaning, moisturizing and sun protection, especially sun protection.

● Choose a makeup, hairstyle and clothing that suits you or is tender.

● Adhere to the use of anti-aging skin care products, and consider anti-aging medical beauty projects if the budget is sufficient.

● Control weight, eat and live healthily, don’t stay up late to smoke, and pay attention to the management of expression.

● Trim and shave off the excess beard hair regularly. If you are bald at an early age, consider wearing a wig or planting hair.

RMB deposit interest rate, lowered again!

On May 20th, official website, a big state-owned bank, updated the deposit interest rate table, RMB deposit interest rate table and listed interest rate table one after another to update the deposit interest rate. This interest rate adjustment will be implemented from May 20, 2025.

Among them, the demand interest rate is lowered by 5 basis points (BP) to 0.05%; The lump-sum deposit and withdrawal for three months, six months, one year and two years are all lowered by 15BP, which are 0.65%, 0.85%, 0.95% and 1.05% respectively; The three-year and five-year fixed lump-sum deposits and withdrawals are lowered by 25BP, which are 1.25% and 1.3% respectively. The three periods of fixed deposit and withdrawal, lump deposit and withdrawal, and deposit and interest withdrawal are all lowered by 15BP. The interest rate of 7-day notice deposit is lowered by 15BP to 0.3%.

ICBC:

Agricultural Bank:

Bank of China:

China Construction Bank:

Bank of Communications:

Postal savings bank:

The Head Stock Bank has followed up synchronously. At present, the official website savings deposit interest rate table of China Merchants Bank has been updated.

The last time a large state-owned bank lowered the interest rate on time deposits, it was in October 2024. At that time, the listing rates of three-month, six-month, one-year, two-year, three-year and five-year time deposits were all lowered by 25BP to 0.80%, 1.00%, 1.10%, 1.20%, 1.50% and 1.55%. The interest rate of 7-day call deposit decreased by 25BP to 0.45%, and that of 1-day call deposit decreased by 5BP to 0.10%.

It is worth noting that each round of deposit interest rate reduction is generally started by state-owned banks, followed by stock banks and local small and medium-sized banks. After the six major banks and China Merchants Bank took the lead in lowering the deposit interest rate, it is expected that more banks will follow suit.

For this deposit interest rate cut, the market has long expected. Earlier, Pan Gongsheng, governor of the central bank, announced at the press conference of the State Council Office on May 7 that the policy interest rate would be lowered by 0.1 percentage point. After the market-oriented interest rate transmission, it is expected that the quoted interest rate (LPR) in the loan market will be lowered by 0.1 percentage point. At the same time, it will also guide commercial banks to lower the deposit interest rate accordingly through the interest rate self-discipline mechanism.

Ming Ming, chief economist of CITIC Securities, pointed out in the research report that the market is likely to usher in the adjustment of deposit interest rate again in the second and third quarters of this year from the time law of deposit interest rate reduction. By combing the history of deposit interest rate reduction, the following three laws are summarized: first, the rhythm of interest rate reduction is often "big banks lead, small banks follow"; Second, regardless of lowering the self-discipline ceiling of deposit interest rate and suspending some high-interest products, we only observe the time when the deposit listing interest rate is adjusted, and the time interval varies from 3 to 9 months; Third, there are more and more ways to control the deposit interest rate. In addition to directly adjusting the deposit listing interest rate, it can also guide the bank’s debt cost to drop by restricting other high-interest deposits.

　　CCTV News:Recently, the international gold price has risen by 13%, and with the price increase and the peak consumption season of the Spring Festival, all major gold stores in Beijing have ushered in the first sales climax of the Lunar New Year of the Pig.

　　Beijing: Gold products sell well. Sales in many shopping malls increased by 10% year-on-year.

　　In Caibai Shopping Mall, the largest gold sales store in Beijing, although it is morning time, many consumers have gathered here. The Spring Festival holiday is the traditional peak season for Chinese to buy gold. Although the price of thousands of gold has recently risen to 353 yuan per gram, it has not affected their enthusiasm for buying gold.

　　Later, CCTV financial reporters saw in Beijing Guohua Shopping Mall and Sun Jindian that there were many consumers in the two shopping malls, and gold ornaments and transfer beads with the meaning of the Year of the Pig were especially favored by consumers. Therefore, during the Spring Festival, the sales volume of several shopping malls increased by more than 10% year-on-year.

　　In addition, the ancient gold ornaments made according to China’s ancient traditional crafts made their debut in many shopping malls, and became the sales darling of this year’s Spring Festival gold market with its heavy historical heritage.

　　Yu Guiying, general manager of Beijing Sun Gold Store: Especially bracelets and some pendants with inscriptions are sold quickly on the counter. Many styles are in short supply and need to be reserved.

　　Investment fund sales increased, and long-term investment became a trend.

　　CCTV financial reporters learned that some consumers are more willing to buy investment money than gold jewelry, which is also due to the safe-haven advantage of gold. Some consumers have taken a fancy to the value-added potential of gold and lengthened the investment cycle. Ms. Zhou from Beijing has many years of experience in gold investment. Last year, she made two round-trip transactions with the principal of 200,000 yuan. The annual yield reached 20% and the net profit was 40,000 yuan. Recently, she saw that the international gold price stopped falling and rebounded, and the domestic investment price was more than 280 yuan per gram, so she was ready to shoot again.

　　Investor Ms. Zhou: I have been buying it for several years. It is a kind of investment.

　　In contrast, Aunt Wang has different ideas from Ms. Zhou. A few years ago, Aunt Wang bought a few hundred grams of investment money with the crowd. At that time, the market price was more than 300 yuan per gram, and it has been stuck ever since. Therefore, it has become her habit to pay close attention to the trend of gold price, and the recent rise in gold price has also touched Aunt Wang’s heart.

　　Investor Aunt Wang: I’ve been saving it for three or four years, and I haven’t sold it, but I’m basically not worried. I have to sell it when I can.

　　CCTV financial reporters learned that during the Spring Festival, the sales of investment funds in several major shopping malls in Beijing increased by an average of 15%. According to industry insiders, the global economic development still faces many uncertainties in 2019, and the safe-haven function of gold is more prominent, but whether it can continue the steady upward trend depends on multiple factors.

　　Gold analyst Jiao Guangyi: There are several factors. The first is the international debt crisis. The second is the economic slowdown in various countries, as well as the geopolitical factors of uncertainty, which will affect the trend of gold.

　　On November 30th, local time, the Federal Reserve released the National Economic Situation Survey Report (also known as the "Beige Book"), which showed that rising interest rates and high inflation continued to put pressure on economic activities, and the growth rate of the US economy slowed down. Federal Reserve Chairman Powell said on the same day that the Fed will continue to raise interest rates, but it may start to narrow the rate hike from December. The signal that the Fed will slow down the rate hike has boosted market confidence to some extent. However, under the current background of high inflation and rising interest rates, the US economic growth prospects are still not optimistic.

　　The negative impact of high interest rates and high inflation continues.

　　The report shows that rising interest rates and high inflation continue to put pressure on economic activities, and economic activities in the United States are basically flat or slightly rising, which is not as good as the moderate growth during the last "Beige Book". Among them, the economies of new york, Kansas City and other jurisdictions declined slightly, and only five jurisdictions experienced slight or moderate economic growth.

　　In the same period, the number of employed people in most jurisdictions increased moderately, but the demand for labor weakened as a whole. Although the labor market is still tense, it is easier for enterprises to recruit and retain existing employees. Science and technology, finance, real estate and other industries are decentralizing layoffs, and some enterprises are reluctant to lay off employees because of recruitment difficulties. On the average, wages have increased at a moderate rate, and the wage pressure in a few jurisdictions has eased. Looking ahead, employment growth tends to be stable or slow down.

　　In terms of prices, consumer prices in most jurisdictions rose moderately or strongly, but the overall increase slowed down, reflecting the double weakening effect brought about by the improvement of supply chain and weakening demand. Retail prices are facing downward pressure, but food prices in some areas have further increased or remained high. Inflation is expected to remain at the current level or rise moderately.

　　According to the contents of this "Beige Book", the rise in interest rates has caused different degrees of negative impact on consumer spending, manufacturing activities, real estate and construction, financial lending, commercial mergers and acquisitions and other fields. The report also shows that concerns about the economic recession are affecting corporate decision-making and consumer behavior in some jurisdictions.

　　The Federal Reserve publishes the "Beige Book" eight times a year, and conducts a thorough analysis of the economic situation in the United States through regional reserve banks. This report is an important reference for the regular meeting of the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy.

　　Or will start to slow down the pace of interest rate hikes.

　　While acknowledging that rising interest rates have brought "side effects" to the economy, the Federal Reserve has also released a signal that it will slow down interest rate hikes. Speaking at the Brookings Institution on November 30th, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell said that the Federal Reserve will continue to raise the federal funds rate, but it may reduce the rate increase from December.

　　Powell said that the Fed "still has a long way to go" from the goal of restoring price stability. Policy measures such as raising interest rates and reducing bonds usually take some time to play a role in the entire economic system. In the future, the Fed will continue to maintain its restrictive monetary policy stance until substantial progress is made in reducing inflation.

　　He said that when the interest rate is close to "the restrictive level enough to reduce inflation", it is "reasonable" for the Fed to slow down the rate hike, and "it may be the time to slow down the rate hike at the December meeting at the earliest". However, at present, the Fed has not made significant progress in reducing inflation.

　　After Powell’s speech, the US stock market soared. As of the close of the day, the Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index rose 3.09%, ending three consecutive days of decline and closing at 4080.11 points; Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 2.18% to 34,589.77 points; The Nasdaq Composite Index rose 4.41% to close at 11,468.00. Affected by the performance of the US stock market and other good news, major stock markets in Asia also generally rose on December 1.

　　In addition, the yield of US Treasury bonds has fallen sharply. According to the Associated Press, the yield of 10-year US Treasury bonds dropped to 3.65% from 3.75% at the close of the previous day. The yield of two-year treasury bonds, which tends to track the market’s expectations of the Fed’s future actions, fell from 4.48% to 4.34%.

　　Greg Basuke, CEO of AXA Investment Company, said that Powell’s statement is the "certainty" that investors are looking for in the Fed’s interest rate hike expectations. It is expected that the Fed will probably raise interest rates by 50 basis points in December.

　　Since March this year, the Federal Reserve has raised interest rates six times in a row, including 75 basis points in the last four times. According to a tracking data of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, it is estimated that the possibility that the Fed will shrink the rate hike to 50 basis points by then is about 77%.

　　The uncertainty of economic prospects is rising.

　　Although the signal that the interest rate hike will slow down has boosted market confidence to some extent, in the context of high inflation and rising interest rates, the prospects for US economic growth are still uncertain. According to the Beige Book, looking forward to the future, all jurisdictions believe that the uncertainty of the economic outlook has increased, and the pessimism about the economic outlook has also intensified.

　　The latest economic data is mixed. According to the revised data released by the US Department of Commerce on November 30th, the gross domestic product (GDP) of the United States increased by 2.9% at an annual rate in the third quarter of this year, 0.3 percentage points higher than the initial data released at the end of October. However, personal consumption expenditure, which accounts for about 70% of the US economy, increased by 1.7%, still less than the 2% increase in the second quarter. In addition, residential investment contracted for the sixth consecutive quarter, the longest duration since 2006.

　　Data from the US Department of Commerce also showed that the US merchandise trade deficit surged by 7.7% to $99 billion in October due to the decline in exports. Reuters said that the sharp expansion of the trade deficit means that the trade performance may drag down the GDP data in the fourth quarter.

　　The inflation outlook is still facing uncertainty. According to the latest data from the US Department of Labor, the year-on-year increase of the consumer price index (CPI) in October was the smallest since January this year, and the year-on-year increase of the producer price index (PPI) in October has also continued to narrow since June. In this regard, Powell said that short-term data may be deceptive. At present, inflation is still at a high level, and more evidence is needed to prove that inflation is actually declining.

　　In addition, the tension in the labor market has not been significantly improved. The increase in economic uncertainty and the recent layoffs of large companies have made Americans even more reluctant to leave their current jobs. The turnover rate, which is regarded as an indicator of confidence in the job market, has dropped from the previous 2.7% to 2.6%. In November, the recruitment of American companies fell to the slowest pace in the past two years. The increase in the number of job vacancies also shows that the shortage of workers persists, which economists say is one of the reasons for the slowdown in employment growth.

　　Isfar Munir, an economist at Citigroup in new york, said that the data show that the labor market has hardly loosened up so far. Reuters reported that the tight labor market made the Federal Reserve continue to tighten monetary policy, which aggravated the risk of economic recession next year. However, most economists believe that the recession may be short and mild.

　　Powell believes that it is still possible for the US economy to achieve a "soft landing", but the possibility of achieving this result is declining. (Reporter Liao Bingqing comprehensive report)

    Carry out the "internet plus" campaign, promote "Internet+government services", promote "internet plus" in medical care, old-age care, education, culture, sports and other fields, develop "Internet+agriculture", and use "internet plus" to develop new employment forms … In this year’s government work report, "internet plus" has become a high-frequency word, and it has also become a hot topic for deputies these days.

　　"In our remote island, we used to have to ask people to bring things. Now there are 200 to 300 packages from e-commerce every week. I also teach fishermen on the island to use the mobile phone program of our postal’ postal music shop’ to help them sell dried fish and dried shrimp to the whole country. The power of’ internet plus’ is so great." The words of Xie Jian, deputy to the National People’s Congress and courier of China Post’s business office in Wailingding Island, Zhuhai, Guangdong Province, represent everyone’s voice. In many fields, such as circulation, manufacturing, people’s livelihood security, public services and so on, the energy of "internet plus" is being continuously released. What is added to this addition of "internet plus"? What should I do with this addition in the future?

    Real economy "accelerator"

　　At present, "internet plus" is widely used in the real economy, becoming an accelerator for the continuous transformation of new and old development kinetic energy. Lin Shuiqi, deputy to the National People’s Congress and chairman of Guangdong Jinling Sugar Group Co., Ltd., told reporters that they have invested more than 80 million yuan to transform smart farmland. In the transformed farmland, watering and fertilization can be directly and remotely controlled by mobile phones. "This year, 100 mu will be piloted, and it will be extended to 10,000 mu in the future. This is not only to save labor costs, but more importantly, it can achieve precise control, thus producing better products. This is also the only way for structural reform of the agricultural supply side."

　　The integration of "internet plus" and manufacturing industry is more rapid. Tan Xuguang, deputy to the National People’s Congress and chairman of Weichai Group, said that great changes have taken place in the design, production and sales modes of the manufacturing industry through the "internet plus". "In terms of intelligent manufacturing, it is a collection of three elements, namely automation, digitalization and videoization of human-computer interaction. The intelligent manufacturing of Weichai Group has been implemented for five years. Last year, we produced 620,000 engines. Without intelligent manufacturing, this achievement would not have been possible. Intelligent manufacturing is to use Internet technology to improve efficiency and reduce costs. "

　　The energy of "internet plus’s real economy" also lies in the birth of a series of "four unlike" new formats, new models and new industries. Ding Lei, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and chairman of Netease’s board of directors, said: "For example,’ internet plus Express’ derived e-commerce,’ internet plus Auto’ derived driverless driving, and’ internet plus TV’ derived smart home appliance platform. In addition, there are commodity crowdfunding, sharing economy, O2O and on-demand customization. These new faces are also the embodiment of the’ internet plus real economy’. "

　　According to Fan Qingfeng, deputy to the National People’s Congress and secretary of the Party Committee of ZTE, with the continuous upgrading of infrastructure, the integration of "internet plus" and the real economy will be more powerful. "The biggest advantage of 5G is its high speed, low delay and wide connection. It truly realizes the interaction between people and things, things and things, which has a great impetus to the upgrading of manufacturing industry. In the future, repetitive, high-intensity and harmful jobs on production lines can be realized completely through robots or industrial automation instruments." According to the forecast of China ICT Institute, by 2030, the commercialization of 5G technology will drive China’s economic output to 6.3 trillion yuan and create 8 million jobs.

    People’s livelihood security "fills the shortcomings"

　　If the integration of "internet plus" and the real economy is a icing on the cake in a sense, then the assistance of "internet plus" in education, medical care, old-age care and employment is more like "sending charcoal in the snow". Through cloud computing, big data and artificial intelligence, all kinds of shortcomings that were difficult to deal with before are being broken.

　　Yao Jinbo, deputy to the National People’s Congress and CEO of Group 58, is optimistic about the promotion of the employment of the disabled by the internet plus. "Many jobs actually don’t reject the disabled, but the problem is that the information is too asymmetric. If we can use the Internet to build a database and truly match the characteristics of each disabled person with the job intelligence, we can really solve this problem, especially if we can connect with the database of the Disabled Persons’ Federation and the civil affairs department, we can help disabled people find jobs that are suitable for them. "

　　Wang Qian, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and president of Shaanxi Big Data Group, is optimistic that "internet plus" will become a "shortcut" to solve the problem of providing for the aged. "On the one hand, we will build a’ data overpass’ between medical institutions at all levels and resources for the aged, so as to accurately grasp the number of elderly people, medical history and economic situation. Using the technical means and modes of big data, we will establish a big data management and intelligent analysis platform for healthy old-age care, and accurately predict the structure and market demand of the elderly population. On the other hand, we will increase R&D support for health care equipment such as health management wearable devices, portable health monitoring devices, and intelligent old-age monitoring devices, provide’ nursing homes without walls’ services for the elderly, and create a’ elderly+platform+service’ home care service model. "

　　Solving the problem of "difficult to see a doctor" and "expensive to see a doctor" is the main practical direction of "internet plus" in the field of people’s livelihood. Li Weimin, deputy to the National People’s Congress and president of west china hospital, said that the Internet supports the development of medical care in two aspects. First, it is more convenient for patients. For example, patients can make appointments for registration, payment, examination and admission, etc. through the Internet. Second, "Internet+medical care" can play an important role in chronic diseases and health management. Through Internet video consultation, video follow-up, video guidance, etc., patients can be treated by trusted doctors without going to the hospital.

　　Ma Xiuzhen, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and director of the Health and Family Planning Commission of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, said that there are insufficient high-quality medical resources in the western region, and the use of "Internet+medical care" can help people in the western region get better medical services. "Ningxia has initially established a telemedicine network, and also introduced an Internet medical third-party platform as a professional operator, which has handled multi-point practice filing for 16,000 experts across the country in Yinchuan, becoming a remote expert database that can provide online support at any time."

　　However, Committee member Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and Sogou CEO Wang Xiaochuan also said that "Internet+medical care" has only taken the first step at present. "I suggest to build a new medical association, widely connect high-quality resources to patients’ ends through digital technology, and open up the’ last mile’ of medical care for the benefit of the people, and provide a three-level supply model of’ core hospital+primary health service institutions+digital family doctors’, in which’ digital family doctors’ can intelligently triage and register directly online. It can also provide remote video and voice diagnosis, and even assist image pathological diagnosis, query reports, record electronic medical records, pay online medical insurance, and continuously track and monitor patients and provide intelligent health consulting services. "

    "New Face" of Public Service

　　This year’s government work report proposes to further promote "Internet+government services" so that more matters can be handled online. Outside the industry, with the promotion of smart cities, "Internet+government services" also make enterprises and people feel new convenience.

　　Shen Xiaoming, deputy to the National People’s Congress and governor of Hainan Province, said that Hainan has actively used Internet innovation to optimize social management, and has built information platforms such as market supervision, global tourism supervision services, disaster prevention and mitigation, and provincial population access management systems to strengthen the acquisition and application of social management big data. At present, all non-confidential information systems in Hainan are connected to the information sharing and exchange platform, and the information sharing of government departments reaches 99%. Liu Yi, deputy to the National People’s Congress and mayor of Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province, said that Jiangmen opened the pilot service of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao through trains in Guangdong Province, realizing the offshore acceptance and remote processing of commercial registration in Hong Kong and Macao. "The next step is to continue to promote the unified and standardized docking of administrative service halls, online service halls and departmental approval service platforms with inventory data in the city, and accelerate the construction of online approval and supervision platforms for investment projects, and strive to make the first breakthrough in the reform of investment project commitment system in the province and even the whole country."

　　In the opinion of the deputies, "Internet+government services" is an important means to improve the business environment. Ma Jun, a member of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and a professor at henan university of economics and law, said: "This will help promote the reform of the’ streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services’, build a higher level service-oriented government, innovate institutional mechanisms, optimize work processes, strengthen service concepts, and improve the ability to serve enterprises, institutions and the people." Xia Fei, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and president of Guangxi University of Finance and Economics, suggested that "Internet+government services" should be vigorously promoted to improve the efficiency of government services, and governments at all levels should be urged to put the optimization of business environment into the focus of administrative efficiency monitoring, accelerate the reform of administrative examination and approval system, continuously improve the social credit system and continuously improve the efficiency of customs clearance.

　　With the promotion of public services, the importance of government data assets is increasing. Commissioner Wang Xi said that the basis of "Internet+government services" is the open sharing of government data, and the ownership, management and management rights of government data are not clear at present. "Take precautions, and now we should carry out forward-looking research to provide theoretical basis for establishing a management system for government data assets; Strengthen policy guidance and clarify the top-level design of ownership management of government data assets; Combined with relevant pilot projects, explore the establishment of ownership management and legal system of government data assets; Encourage the application of new technologies and support the sharing, opening and development of government data with clear responsibilities and rights.

Spread out the map of China, Shenzhen’s counterpart support, assistance, cooperation and exchange areas are radial, from Pamirs to snowy Xizang, from old revolutionary base areas to the border of the motherland, and from northeast to southwest … … Co-construction of industrial parks is a witness to the "two-way trip" between Shenzhen and its counterpart cooperation areas; Schools and hospitals covered with Shenzhen’s imprint are the best footnotes for Shenzhen’s aid construction and counterpart assistance areas.

Shenzhen always remembers the political responsibility of "being grateful for reform and opening up and returning to the people of the whole country", takes the lead in demonstrating, consciously serves the overall situation of the national rural revitalization strategy, and focuses on rural revitalization, assistance and cooperation, and counterpart cooperation, so as to promote the high-quality and efficient agriculture in 97 counties of 9 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities with counterpart assistance, livable villages and rich farmers. In 2022, Shenzhen invested a total of 5.04 billion yuan in financial assistance funds, implemented 437 projects, and explored a sample of Shenzhen’s special assistance in key areas such as industrial cooperation, people’s livelihood development, consumer assistance, and smart agriculture, which was driven by the radiation of special economic zones to play a "national chess game" and contribute to building a socialist modern country in an all-round way.

"Bought" 12.1 billion yuan to build a "Shenzhen model" for national consumption assistance

Consumer assistance empowers rural revitalization. The reporter learned from Shenzhen Rural Revitalization and Cooperation and Exchange Bureau that in 2022, the total purchase amount of consumer assistance products in Shenzhen reached 12.169 billion yuan, 105.78% of the annual target progress, and a total of 3,976 units in the city purchased 185,100 single consumer assistance products.

Liu Weixiang, director of Shenzhen Rural Revitalization and Cooperation and Exchange Bureau, introduced that Shenzhen took the opportunity of creating a national consumption assistance demonstration city, focused on cultivating characteristic agricultural and sideline products brands, and built a "four good" sustainable consumption assistance model with good mechanism, good industry, good products and good channels. Through the certification of "Shenzhen products", "standard products enter the village and Shenzhen products enter the bay", and the passage of agricultural products from the field to the table of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area people is unblocked, so that consumption assistance can be activated.

In Shenzhen Haijixing Consumer Assistance Center, the reporter saw that there are thousands of special agricultural and sideline products from Shenzhen’s counterpart provinces and regions, such as Shanwei rice, Xinjiang dried fruit, Guangxi wogan, Bama drinking water, Heyuan camellia oil and Xizang yak meat. Up to now, Shenzhen has evaluated 181 "Shenzhen products" in counterpart areas and passed the "sea push sea election"

"Joint Exhibition and Joint Marketing" helped consumers to select the top 100 good products, and selected 100 "good products" to promote to the whole city. It can be said that Shenzhen has built a "national model" of consumer assistance with the first demonstration standard, so that "Shenzhen products" will continue to go out of the circle. By contributing to the energy of rural revitalization "Shenzhen", it has achieved a breakthrough in the purchase of consumer assistance and solidly and effectively promoted the revitalization of rural industries.

In order to solve the problem that consumption helps agricultural products to sell, Shenzhen gives priority to expanding sales channels, strengthens the coordination of "online and offline", "government and market" and "institutions and enterprises", and strives to build a three-dimensional and all-round supply chain of agricultural products from poverty-stricken households to citizens’ tables. Among them, only the construction of logistics system in counterpart areas has been strengthened. In the past three years, Shenzhen has invested 250 million yuan in financial cooperation funds in Guangxi, driving other funds to 1.5 billion yuan, building 43 storage and fresh-keeping cold chain logistics facilities with the local area, building 121 demonstration bases for agricultural products, and promoting 138 contracted agricultural investment projects with a total investment of 24.97 billion yuan. Du ‘an Yao Autonomous County in Guangxi is the key target of Shenzhen’s assistance. This once deep poverty-stricken county has now established a national modern agricultural industrial park, with a warehousing and logistics center and a cold chain processing center. The products are sold to more than 200 sales points and 258 micro-stores across the country, driving 53,000 poverty-stricken households to participate and benefiting 87,000 people.

Shenzhen has also played an important role in broadening the sales channels of agricultural products and promoting the development of rural economy, creating a matrix of live broadcast, forming a consumer-assisted live broadcast alliance, and organizing the "2022 Millions of employees’ consumption-assisted live broadcast week of new year’s goods", which adopted popular forms such as new year’s goods promotion, special folk cultural performances, tourism introduction and food tasting, and invited 136 anchors such as radio hosts, front-line cadres and local farmers to participate in the activities. During the event, the accumulated transaction amount online and offline was nearly 106 million yuan.

In Shenzhen, consumer assistance also pays equal attention to the government’s guidance and promotion of market participants’ participation, and pays equal attention to the mutual benefit and win-win situation of enterprises in Greater Bay Area. Liu Weixiang revealed that preparations are being made for the establishment of the Shenzhen Consumer Assistance Alliance to create an industry-wide chain assistance model. Support Spring Valley Garden to establish Shenzhen Dachanwan Agricultural Products Consumption Assistance Center with the concept of market-oriented operation.

Inject several "intellectual" vitality into rural revitalization

As an important "combination point" between the application of digital intelligence technology and the development of rural construction, digital intelligence rural construction is not only the strategic direction of rural revitalization, but also a positive response to the strategies of rural revitalization and digital China in China. Digital villages lead the transformation of grassroots governance model, and the digital economy has activated new kinetic energy for rural revitalization.

Shenzhen, the city of science and technology, actively organizes digital village-related enterprises, research institutes, operators and other entities to carry out digital village construction in groups nationwide, gathers all kinds of resources needed for the integrated development of digital village Industry-University-Research, and provides a systematic landing plan to help rural industries, ecology, governance, culture and other aspects realize digital transformation. Through the empowerment of science and technology, it vigorously promotes the construction of digital villages, promotes the development of smart agriculture, and leads the transformation of grassroots governance models. The digital economy has also laid a solid foundation for rural revitalization industries.

Tencent, a local enterprise in Shenzhen, takes "Tencent as the village" as the starting point to provide a digital service platform for rural sustainable development; Huawei actively participates in the exploration and practice of digital construction of agriculture and rural areas across the country, and builds a digital rural base &hellip based on intelligent terminals, 5G, computing, cloud and AI; … The implementation of a large number of digital rural projects has narrowed the "digital divide" between urban and rural areas, making rural production and life more convenient and efficient, and has become a booster for rural revitalization.

Shenzhen uses the advantages of science and technology to accelerate the cultivation and promotion of breakthrough new varieties and help counterpart areas realize "storing grain in technology" and "storing grain in the ground": in Shantou, Guangdong, Shenzhen promotes local breeding and breeding of pigs, explores the development of intelligent breeding, and builds a green recycling ecological development model; Shenzhen enterprises develop intelligent agricultural system in Shanwei, strengthen the cultivation and improvement of litchi varieties, and build a digital planting base for exporting litchi in the old revolutionary areas. Shenzhen Institute of Agricultural Genomics of China Academy of Sciences established the first sea rice base and Shenka Modern Agriculture Demonstration Park in Kashgar, Xinjiang. Shenzhen Institute of Agricultural Modern Equipment promoted mechanized transplanting of sea rice with advanced intelligent agricultural machinery and equipment. The yield per mu of new varieties of sea rice was about 100 kilograms higher than that of local rice varieties, and the milled rice yield was as high as 76%.

Shenzhen also mobilized social forces such as Internet companies to introduce advanced ideas, use technical means to participate in rural construction, and promote the integration and sharing of information resources. For example, JD.COM Agricultural Support Center and Zhongke Digital Development Center have built a big data platform for digital villages, helping many counties in Guangxi to effectively integrate the needs of attracting investment and selling agricultural products. Shenzhen Fengnong Holdings launched the "Learning Agriculture Every Day" online consultation platform for farmers’ vocational education and training, so that farmers can learn planting techniques by turning on their mobile phones; Shenzhen Wugu Network Technology Co., Ltd. has built a modern socialized agricultural information service platform, which has covered 10 crops at present, and has published more than 6,000 agricultural technology articles and video programs, which has become an important channel for farmers to understand planting technology and industry information.

Agricultural products from planting and production to high-quality and efficient circulation are inseparable from the construction of three-dimensional sales and supply network. China Ping An Insurance creatively launched a new model of "blockchain production and marketing traceability+traceability insurance+food safety liability insurance", which standardized the management and control of agricultural products planting, and generated a "safety code" for each package of products. Consumers can know the traceability information of agricultural products such as irrigation, fertilization and quality inspection by scanning the code.

Industrial co-construction stimulates endogenous development momentum

In May, 2022, with the landing of Huawei’s "One Headquarters, Two Centers" project, Shenzhen (Harbin) Industrial Park (hereinafter referred to as Shenha Industrial Park) generate showed great attraction. On the north bank of Songhua River, a modern industrial new city has emerged on the former wasteland.

Based on the resource endowment and industrial base of counterpart cooperation areas, Shenzhen promotes industrial assistance by building a park platform and developing characteristic industries to stimulate endogenous motivation. Since 2022, Shenzhen has accelerated the implementation of a number of cooperation projects such as Zhengwei and Huawei. There are 143 industrial cooperation projects in Shenzhen and Kazakhstan, with an investment of 36.22 billion yuan. Forty-five enterprises, including Shenzhen Shanxing Medical and Harbin Institute of Technology Artificial Intelligence, have settled in the park, and the digital economy industry with a new generation of information technology and artificial intelligence as the core is constantly gathering.

Co-construction of the park is a strong driving force for industrial development. In recent years, the industrial co-construction between Shenzhen and counterpart areas has been deepened, and more and more Shenzhen enterprises have explored the market in counterpart areas. At the same time, it also gave full play to the benefits of the exhibition, organized 77 enterprises to participate in five national-level exhibitions, and facilitated transactions of nearly 100 million yuan.

A project drives an industrial cluster, and an industrial cluster enriches a region. Shenzhen has also vigorously promoted the "20+8" industrial cluster to expand cooperation with counterpart areas. According to incomplete statistics, Shenzhen has built or supported the construction of 86 industrial parks, including Guangxi National Modern Agricultural Industrial Park, Kashgar Shenzhen Industrial Park, Shenhe and Shenshan Industrial Transfer Industrial Park and Shenha Industrial Park, and promoted 516 projects with an investment of over 190 billion yuan.

In Guangdong Province, the "new highland" is constantly emerging, and the effect of industrial "enclave" is even more remarkable. The industrial park jointly built by Shenhe and Shenshan has developed rapidly, and 28 new industrial projects exceeding 100 million yuan have been introduced; 45 deep cooperation projects will also promote Shantou in Shenzhen, with an initial investment of over 90 billion yuan. Among them, the electronic information and aquaculture cluster in Heyuan High-tech Zone has developed strongly, the leading project of Shanwei Co-construction Industrial Park has been steadily enhanced, and a number of landmark projects such as Shantou Lishan Zhizao (Chenghai) Park have been accelerated … …

Shenzhen is continuing to promote the co-construction of "one county and one park", and the first batch of 10 key cultivation demonstration parks started construction in Guangxi. Driven by industrial development, Shenzhen science and technology enterprises continue to explore the Guangxi market, and the employment channels of rural labor force continue to expand. With the deepening of industrial co-construction, the endogenous development momentum of the co-construction area has been stimulated. Du ‘an, Guangxi used to be a deep poverty-stricken county, and now a national modern agricultural industrial park has been established. In the park, there are 3 breeding bases for 10,000 beef cattle, 4 breeding bases for 10,000 Australian Han sheep, 21 township-level beef cattle farms and 45 meat sheep farms. Since 2022, the beef and mutton sheep breeding industry has driven 15,000 farmers in 147 poverty-stricken villages in 19 towns and villages in the county to continuously increase their income. This is the epitome of Guangdong and Guangxi deepening the cooperation between the east and the west and promoting common prosperity. (Reporter)
