The Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development should explore the role of the established housing pension system, and where does the money come from?

  According to china construction news, on the afternoon of June 26th, Ni Hong, Party Secretary and Minister of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of the People’s Rerublic of China met with Ge Haijiao, secretary of the Party Committee and chairman of Bank of China, and his party, and exchanged views on deepening the cooperation between the government and banks and promoting the high-quality development of housing and urban and rural construction.

  Ni Hong pointed out that it is necessary to encourage and guide financial institutions to participate in urban construction and renewal, and promote the creation of livable, intelligent and resilient cities. It is necessary to build good houses for the people, improve the quality of housing, explore the establishment of a housing pension system, and provide life-cycle security for houses.

  Among them, the "housing pension system" attracts people’s attention. Then, what is the "housing pension system"? Where does the "housing pension" money come from and what role does it play?

  What is the "housing pension" system?

  The "housing pension" system is not proposed for the first time.

  The housing pension system is regarded as an institutional arrangement for the government to reserve housing security funds. The background of this proposal lies in the security risks brought by the aging of existing housing, but the existing special housing maintenance funds are difficult to meet the needs of housing maintenance and renovation.

  According to the report of Architectural Magazine, during the two sessions this year, Chai Qiang, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and president of China Real Estate Appraisers and Real Estate Agents Association, brought the Proposal on Early Establishment of Housing Pension System to Ensure People’s Living Safety, which pointed out that at present, China’s stock housing maintenance mainly depends on special housing maintenance funds or owners’ self-raised funds. In a single residential area, the scale of funds collected is generally only 6 million yuan-9 million yuan or even lower. With the aging of houses and ancillary facilities, the demand for maintenance funds is increasing year by year, and the maintenance funds in some residential quarters are rapidly decreasing or even drying up. The existing special maintenance funds for houses are far from meeting the demand of "all repairs should be made". It is suggested that the establishment of housing pension system can provide financial guarantee for the establishment and operation of housing safety management system and better fulfill the government’s public housing safety responsibilities.

  According to official website, the Standing Committee of Jiangsu Provincial People’s Congress, during the two sessions of the National People’s Congress this year, She Caigao, deputy to the National People’s Congress and secretary of the Party Committee and chairman of Nanjing Metro Group Co., Ltd., also suggested establishing a housing pension system to explore and solve the housing safety management problems. She Caigao pointed out that "housing pension is an institutional arrangement for the government to reserve housing security funds, which can speed up the elimination of hidden dangers in housing use and solve problems left over from history."

  At the same time, since last year, the government has repeatedly proposed to study the establishment of a housing pension system.

  After the collapse accident of Changsha residents’ self-built buildings on April 29, 2022, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development held a video conference on May 1 of that year and deployed a national special rectification work on the safety of self-built houses, pointing out that it is necessary to speed up the research and improvement of various systems of housing construction safety management, study and establish a housing physical examination system, and strengthen the safety guarantee of housing throughout its life cycle. It is necessary to study the establishment of a housing "pension" system to better solve the problem of the source of funds for the maintenance of existing houses.

  On May 24, 2022, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Notice on the National Special Renovation Work Plan for the Safety of Self-built Houses", pointing out that "the mandatory standards for housing quality and safety should be improved, and the systems of regular physical examination, housing pension and housing quality insurance should be studied and established."

  Why should we establish a "housing pension" system?

  She Caigao pointed out that China’s stock housing has a long time span and a large number. Many houses were built before 2000. With the growth of housing age, the proportion of old houses continues to rise. The average age of some existing houses has reached 30-40 years, and the aging problems of houses such as structural instability, corrosion and aging of facilities, equipment and pipelines, roof leakage, and cold penetration of walls are endless. However, the special maintenance funds of some old communities are rapidly decreasing or even drying up. He took Nanjing as an example. Even in the old residential areas with special maintenance funds and current balance, nearly 30% of the residential areas still have a balance of less than 100,000 yuan, which is far from meeting the needs of aging maintenance of facilities and equipment in old residential areas at this stage.

  In view of the phenomenon that the existing special maintenance funds for residential buildings can not meet the demand of "all repairs should be made", She Caigao suggested establishing a housing pension system.

  Chai Qiang also pointed out in his proposal that according to "China Census Yearbook -2020" and related data, over 30% of urban family housing in China was built before this century. The scale of urban housing stock has exceeded 30 billion square meters, and with the growth of housing age, the proportion of old housing continues to rise. In view of the increasing scale of housing stock, involving more and more residents and families, it is urgent to take precautions, transform into preventive measures, and gradually accumulate "pension" for housing from now on.

  Where does the "housing pension" money come from?

  Regarding the question of where the "housing pension" money comes from, She Caigao suggested in her proposal that the housing pension can be managed by classification, which consists of two parts: public account and personal account.

  Among them, the sources of public account funds are mainly land transfer fees, the balance of value-added income from maintenance funds, funds for the renovation of old residential areas, funds that should be collected from the transfer of "three for one industry" and urban property management awards and subsidies, etc., following the principle of "government-led, professional operation, overall use and earmarking" and adhering to the management concept of "two lines of revenue and expenditure", it is mainly used for public services such as daily compulsory physical examination of houses and purchase of comprehensive housing safety insurance.

  Personal account refers to the residential special maintenance fund account, which is managed in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations on the management of special maintenance funds, and is mainly used for the maintenance, renovation and transformation of residential common parts and shared facilities and equipment after the warranty period expires.

  Chai Qiang said in his Proposal on Early Establishment of Housing Pension System to Ensure People’s Living Safety that the establishment of housing pension system can provide financial guarantee for the establishment and operation of housing safety management system and better fulfill the government’s housing public safety responsibilities.

  It is suggested that a certain proportion should be drawn from the land transfer income (land price) or net income (transfer income minus transfer cost) in the current year, such as more than 5% of land transfer income or more than 20% of net land transfer income, as a housing pension. Because the land transfer income mainly comes from the house, the land price or land transfer fee is charged at one time when the real estate development land is supplied, especially the land value-added income is actually mainly "taken from the house", and the land price accounts for a high proportion in the house price through bidding, auction and auction, which squeezes out the necessary expenses for ensuring the quality of housing construction and maintenance and renewal.

  At the same time, give full play to the financial support role of housing pension in the life cycle safety management of housing, establish a housing physical examination system, use housing pension to carry out regular housing physical examination, "treat diseases" for old houses, realize housing safety testing, emergency evacuation and accident risk protection, form a long-term housing safety mechanism, and provide housing with life cycle safety protection.

  Urban pilot is on the way.

  Since the beginning of this year, the establishment of a housing pension system has been mentioned many times. Apart from some NPC deputies and CPPCC members suggesting the establishment of a housing pension system to solve the maintenance problem of old houses, a national video conference on special rectification of self-built houses was held in April this year. The meeting pointed out that it is necessary to actively build a long-term mechanism for housing safety management, accelerate the local legislation on housing safety management, and actively promote the "three systems" pilot of housing pension, regular physical examination of houses and housing quality insurance and the pilot of cross-departmental comprehensive supervision of self-built houses.

  At the same time, some cities have explored the pilot work of housing pension system.

  According to official website of Jiangsu Housing and Urban-Rural Development Department, on May 12th this year, Zhou Tao, a first-class inspector of the real estate market supervision department of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, and his party went to Nanjing to investigate and explore the pilot work of housing pension system and held a forum. At the symposium, the research team listened to the introduction of Jiangsu Province and Nanjing City on exploring the establishment of a housing pension system. Participants exchanged views on the necessity and feasibility of establishing a housing pension system, as well as the problems existing in the management and use of residential special maintenance funds and relevant suggestions.

  The Central Finger Research Institute believes that the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development once again emphasizes "exploring the establishment of a housing pension system to provide life-cycle security for houses", or indicates that the construction and pilot of the housing pension system will be accelerated, which is conducive to better solving the funding problem of the renovation of old communities and improving the living quality and living environment of residents.

  Chen Xiao, a senior analyst at Zhuge Data Research Center, mentioned that the exchange between the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the Bank of China also conveyed that the implementation of housing pension may be explored by means of cooperation between government and banks.

  Morgan Stanley: If the market adjusts, it is the time to buy.

  On January 19, 2023, Morgan Stanley pointed out in its research report that investors’ mood weakened on the eve of the Spring Festival. The factors supporting China’s bullish stock market are being realized. "If there is an adjustment after the Spring Festival, we regard it as a bargain-hunting opportunity".

  Morgan Stanley upgraded China’s market rating on December 4th, 2022, and then upgraded China to High Ratings after nearly two years. Just one month later, Morgan Stanley once again published a "bullish" report: in view of the fact that the China epidemic policy exceeded expectations, it is reasonable to raise the target points of some China market indexes again.

  A-share sentiment index compiled by Morgan Stanley, source: Morgan Stanley Report. The above figure shows that despite the continuous inflow of northbound funds before the holiday and the strong rebound of A shares, the mood of A shares is far from overheating.

  Morgan Stanley pointed out that the factors supporting the bullish China stock market are being realized. Under the Spring Festival effect, some investors may take profits, which may bring the opportunity to buy. From the data of December 2022, the economic activity and epidemic recovery exceeded expectations. For example, China’s GDP in the fourth quarter increased by 2.9% year-on-year, which was the same as the previous quarter. In January 2023, social mobility data continued to improve. Morgan Stanley cited data from relevant universities and pointed out that about two-thirds of people in China have been infected with Omicron. This means that the economic recovery is earlier and stronger than expected. It is likely that after the Spring Festival, corporate profits have bottomed out and the economic recovery has accelerated.

  Morgan Stanley pointed out: The recent easing of Sino-US relations, supervision and support for the development of platform economy, and high-level signals to encourage the development of market economy are all beneficial to the performance of China stocks. In the previous report, Morgan Stanley said that it was more optimistic about offshore China stocks (including Hong Kong stocks and overseas listed ADR) than A shares. Between A shares and offshore China stocks, when should investors turn to A shares? Morgan Stanley said that it depends on three conditions. First of all, the valuation of A shares compared with offshore China stocks; Second, the low allocation of offshore China stocks by overseas funds has weakened; Third, after the normalization of inbound tourism, overseas institutions can enter the country to do their best.

China’s economic market in 2008 (economic focus)





  


    In 2008, China’s economy maintained a growth rate of 9% in spite of difficulties, and its contribution to world economic growth exceeded 20%.


    In the fourth quarter, although the GDP growth rate took a sharp turn for the worse, in December, there were some positive changes in money and credit, consumption, investment, export and industrial production …


    After experiencing several rare natural disasters in history and the test of the world economic recession caused by the American financial crisis, what kind of overall evaluation should be given to China’s national economy in 2008?


    How to evaluate the overall economic performance throughout the year?


    Ma Jiantang, director of the National Bureau of Statistics, who made his debut at the press conference of the State Council Information Office, was considerate, bringing not only detailed statistical data, but also his overall evaluation of the national economy in 2008: rapid growth, price stabilization, structural optimization and improvement of people’s livelihood.


    At first glance, it is growing rapidly. According to preliminary accounting, GDP in 2008 increased by 9% over the previous year. Although vertically, it is 4 percentage points lower than the growth rate of 13% in 2007, compared with other countries in the world, the growth rate of 9% is still a relatively high speed. According to the latest estimate of the International Monetary Fund, the average growth rate of the world economy in 2008 was 3.7%. According to Ma Jiantang, it has been calculated that in 2008, China’s economy maintained a growth rate of 9% in spite of difficulties, and its contribution to world economic growth exceeded 20%.


    Second, look at the price stabilization. In February, the price rise reached a peak, and the CPI rose by 8.7% that month. China government has taken a series of measures to increase supply, regulate demand, invigorate circulation and increase subsidies for low-and middle-income people. With these measures in place, it took about half a year to control the inflation rate from 8.7% to less than 5%, and it dropped to 1.2% in December.


    Third, look at structural optimization. While the national economy has achieved rapid growth, the primary industry, especially agriculture, has developed well. In 2008, China’s total grain output and unit yield both reached the highest level in history, with grain reaching 1,057 billion Jin. "In such a difficult time, a bumper harvest of grain can be achieved, which further proves that Chinese can support itself, which is also the greatest contribution to the world." As a doctor of economics, Ma Jiantang still remembers the debate about "Who will feed China" provoked by some foreign economists a few years ago. In addition to the industrial structure, the regional structure is also being optimized. Last year, the investment and industrial growth rates in the central and western regions were faster than those in the east.


    In 2008, energy conservation and emission reduction also made positive progress. From the perspective of energy consumption per 10,000 yuan GDP, it decreased by 4.21% in 2008. In the first three quarters of last year, sulfur dioxide emissions decreased by 4.2% and chemical oxygen demand emissions decreased by 2.7%. All these data indicate that China’s economy has made positive progress in building a resource-saving and environment-friendly society while overcoming difficulties and growing steadily.


    Fourth, see the improvement of people’s livelihood. In 2008, the annual per capita disposable income of urban residents increased by 14.5%, with an actual increase of 8.4%; The per capita net income of rural residents increased by 15% in nominal terms and 8% in real terms. It is not easy to maintain such growth under such severe economic conditions. At the same time, social security is increasing. In 2008, the total income of five insurance funds, including basic pension, basic medical care, unemployment, work injury and maternity insurance, was 1,380.8 billion yuan, an increase of 27.7%. The basic pension level and the minimum wage level of enterprise retirees all over the country are improving.

    In the fourth quarter of 2008, China’s economy grew by 6.8% year on year.

    In the first November of 2008, the profits of 31 industrial sectors in China increased year-on-year.

China’s policy document on the EU (full text)

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, December 18th

China’s policy document on EU.
(December 2018)

foreword

Today, the world is in a period of great development, great change and great adjustment. World multipolarization, economic globalization, social informationization and cultural diversity are developing in depth, and countries are increasingly interconnected and interdependent. At the same time, unstable and uncertain factors have increased in the international situation, and unilateralism, protectionism and anti-globalization have risen.

Over the past 40 years of reform and opening up, China has made great achievements in economic and social development, but China’s international status as the largest developing country in the world has not changed. Under the guidance of the Supreme Leader’s New Era Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought, China will unswervingly follow the path of peaceful development, persist in comprehensively deepening reforms, promote the formation of a new pattern of all-round opening up, promote the construction of new international relations, promote the building of a community of human destiny, and create new opportunities and make new contributions to world peace and development.

The process of European integration is the product of European countries and people’s pursuit of peace, unity and self-improvement. As a country with the highest degree of integration and comprehensive strength in the world today, the EU is an important strategic force in the international situation. Although the development of the EU has been affected by events such as Brexit in recent years, the EU has not changed its integration direction, continued to work hard to promote reform and meet challenges, and played an important role in regional and international affairs.

China and the European Union are both important participants and shapers in the process of world multipolarization and economic globalization. They share broad common interests in safeguarding world peace and stability, promoting global prosperity and sustainable development, and promoting the progress of human civilization. They are also indispensable partners in their respective reforms and development. The EU has maintained the status of China’s largest trading partner for 14 consecutive years, and China is the EU’s second largest trading partner. Developing good relations with the EU has always been one of the priorities of China’s diplomacy.

In 2003 and 2014, the China government published two policy documents on the EU, which provided important guidance for promoting the development of China-EU relations. The year 2018 marks the 15th anniversary of the establishment of China-EU comprehensive strategic partnership and the 20th anniversary of the establishment of China-EU leaders’ meeting mechanism. The third policy document on the EU formulated by China government aims to keep pace with the times and carry forward the past, further clarify the direction, principles and concrete measures for deepening China-EU comprehensive strategic partnership in the new era, and promote greater development of China-EU relations.

first part

Guiding principles for developing China-EU relations

Since the establishment of a comprehensive strategic partnership between China and the European Union in 2003, the breadth and depth of bilateral relations have been continuously expanded, forming a good pattern of all-round, multi-level and wide-ranging exchanges and cooperation. In 2014, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader paid a historic visit to the EU headquarters, and reached an important consensus with EU leaders on building the four partnerships of peace, growth, reform and civilization between China and Europe, which pointed out the development direction for further deepening the comprehensive strategic partnership of mutual benefit and win-win, and defined the overall policy objectives of the China administration towards the EU for a long time. China advocates looking at and developing China-EU relations from a strategic and long-term perspective. The following principles should be adhered to in developing China-EU relations:

-Adhere to mutual respect, treat each other as equals, adhere to the one-China principle, and consolidate the most important political foundation of China-EU relations.

-Adhere to openness, inclusiveness, win-win cooperation, and strengthen the exchange of development concepts and the docking of development plans.

-Adhere to fairness and justice, help each other in the same boat, and jointly promote the improvement of the global governance system.

-Insist on dialogue among civilizations, live in harmony but differ, and promote exchanges and mutual learning between China and Europe.

China is happy to see a united, stable, open and prosperous Europe, has always supported the process of European integration, and is committed to developing relations with EU institutions, member States and other European countries in a comprehensive, balanced and mutually reinforcing way. The cooperation between China and Central and Eastern European countries is an open and transparent cross-regional cooperation based on the common interests and actual needs of China and regional countries. Support and constructive participation from the EU and other parties are welcome. China hopes that Britain will leave the EU in an orderly manner and is willing to promote the parallel development of China-EU and China-UK relations.

China will continue to strengthen high-level exchanges with the EU and EU countries, give full play to the strategic leading role of the China-EU leaders’ meeting mechanism in the development of China-EU relations, further implement the China-EU Cooperation 2020 Strategic Plan jointly formulated by the two sides in 2013, explore follow-up plans, and strengthen exchanges and dialogues among governments at all levels. Strengthen equal exchanges and mutual learning between legislatures, political parties, local governments and social organizations, deepen and expand pragmatic cooperation in various fields, carry out third-party market cooperation, and learn from each other’s strengths, benign interaction and common development in exchanges and cooperation.

The "One Belt, One Road" initiative is an important public product provided by China to the international community. It insists on joint construction and sharing, advocates openness, tolerance and transparency, follows international rules and market principles, and pursues high quality and high standards on the basis of local conditions. China welcomes the EU and European countries to actively participate in cooperation and jointly build the Belt and Road into a peaceful, prosperous, open, innovative, civilized, green and clean road.

Adhering to the commitment of respecting China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, adhering to the one-China principle with practical actions, and respecting China’s core interests and major concerns are related to the long-term stable development of China-EU relations. The European side should clearly oppose any form of "Taiwan Province independence", support the great cause of China’s peaceful reunification, and handle Taiwan-related issues carefully. Exchanges between Europe and Taiwan should be strictly restricted to unofficial and non-governmental areas, and no official contacts and exchanges of any kind are allowed, no agreements with sovereign meaning or official nature are signed, no institutions with official nature are set up, Taiwan’s participation in international organizations limited to sovereign countries is not supported, Taiwan’s weapons and equipment, materials and technology that can be used for military purposes are not sold, and any form of military exchanges and cooperation is not allowed.

The Central Government of China supports and encourages the governments of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the Macao Special Administrative Region to carry out mutually beneficial and friendly cooperation with the EU and its member States in the fields of economy, trade, culture and tourism in accordance with the principle of "one country, two systems" and the provisions of the two Basic Laws. Hong Kong and Macao are special administrative regions of China. Hong Kong and Macao affairs belong to China’s internal affairs, and the European side should not interfere.

China appreciates the position of the EU and its member states that Tibet is an inalienable part of China’s territory and does not support "Tibet independence". The European side should not allow the leader of the Dalai clique to engage in activities to split China in the EU and its member countries in any capacity and name, and should not arrange any form of contact between officials and him, or provide any support and convenience for anti-China separatist activities of "Tibet independence". The European side should also not provide any support and convenience for the "East Turkistan" forces and any anti-China separatist, violent terrorist and extreme religious activities.

China and Europe are different in history, culture, social system and development stage, but there is no fundamental strategic conflict between the two sides, and the common ground is far greater than the differences. We should persist in dialogue and non-confrontation, constantly enhance mutual understanding, understanding and trust through equal dialogue, maximize consensus, take care of each other’s legitimate concerns, and handle differences and control frictions in a constructive manner.

China is willing to continue to strengthen dialogue and cooperation with the EU at bilateral, regional and global levels, jointly advocate and practice multilateralism, safeguard the international order and system with the United Nations at the core, and work together to meet global challenges. Take a clear-cut stand against unilateralism and protectionism, promote the development of economic globalization in a more open, inclusive, inclusive, balanced and win-win direction, support the international community to jointly formulate and improve fair, just and equitable international rules and standards, and ensure that all parties participate in decision-making on an equal footing, enjoy their due rights, and assume responsibilities and obligations commensurate with the level of development.

    Unlike his previous role as a handsome young man, Nicholas Tse was brutally "disfigured" in the film, with "scarred eyes" and "wind ears" in the form of a coachman, completely subverting the image of a handsome man.

    Although there are three actors bring up the rear from "American Fear", among them, sarah paulson, the "Banana Sister", has a very high voice, but regina king broke through the tight encirclement with "American Serious Crime" and won the best supporting actress in a limited drama/TV movie category, and finally "American Fear" returned empty-handed at this year’s Emmy Awards.

Chasing food documentaries is becoming a way of life.

 

  Recently, the second season of "Flavor World" and the broadcast of "Looking for Dongguan" have once again teased the taste buds of diners and aroused people’s imagination of food. The second season of "Flavor World" starts from a global perspective, and explores the inextricable connection of cuisines around the world and presents the fresh taste of cuisines around the world. "Looking for Dongguan" is based on the authentic food flavor of Dongguan, showing the local food style from three angles: adapting to the weather, relying on mountains and rivers, and migrating and blending. It outlines the local fresh people and things with food, and then reveals the original appearance of Guangdong food culture, showing the historical change and time-space collision behind the flavor circulation.

  Under the mode of creating and broadcasting "internet plus Documentary", food has become an important theme. Documentaries such as "Flavor World" and "Everything Nourishes" have become "traffic", "online celebrity" and "explosion" with the help of the power of the Internet, realizing brand marketing and genre creation. By means of defamiliarization, daily aesthetics and drama, these documentaries have re-endowed the life style and cultural heritage at the image level, transformed the daily life of ordinary people into an important cultural phenomenon in China society, and promoted cultural inheritance and innovative development by means of contemporary Internet platforms and audio-visual media.

  The production mode of "high concept" and the audio-visual presentation of "film texture" are surpassing the domestic food documentary.

  In recent years, several major Internet video platforms have successively launched documentaries on food themes. Popular topics, unique perspectives, and escalating audio-visual means ignite the public’s enthusiasm for watching, and almost every food documentary will become a hot topic. This successful documentary type provides inspiration and experience for us to think and explore how to develop the quality construction of audio-visual works.

  Judging from these successful experiences, high-quality products include the continuous innovation of audio-visual technology and concepts, the shaping and promotion of cultural product brands, and the mainstream and sharing of value systems. Take "Flavor Room" as an example, the total broadcast volume of "Flavor Room" in Tencent video in the first two seasons alone is close to 2 billion yuan. In addition, Tencent launched the urban food documentary "Looking for Dongguan" immediately after the end of the second season of "Flavor World", and used the lens to show the audience the migration of Dongguan people and the changes and changes on their dining tables. Other Internet video platforms, such as bilibili, have also started a series of work non-stop after the successful broadcast of A Life Series in the first season.

  In addition to the continuous development of food content, these documentaries draw lessons from the production mode of "high concept" and pursue the audio-visual level of "film texture". Close-ups with shallow depth of field and aerial photography with special perspectives reflect the pursuit of spectacle effect in Internet documentaries. These comparable film quality and carefully selected shooting themes together constitute spectacle viewing effect, which has become an important driving force for documentary films to improve quality and market performance in recent years.

  For example, the first paragraph of the first season of "Flavor Man" shows the life and diet of nomadic people in Kuerte, Xinjiang. The film shows in detail the process of freezing and growing ice crystals in horse intestines after the sudden drop of temperature at night in winter. In "Looking for Dongguan", the footage of fishermen fishing at night and people drying raked radishes changed from near to far with the shooting environment at that time, which instantly raised the details of daily life to a higher perspective and brought a powerful shocking effect to the ordinary food life.

  This special shooting technique, which is specially designed according to the ingredients and production process, widely exists in most story paragraphs of this series of documentaries, and has become a new visual technology benchmark for food documentaries and a typical element used to represent audio-visual quality and viewing experience during publicity and promotion. It can be said that the level of serialization and spectacle of China’s food documentaries is approaching or even surpassing that of overseas TV stations, and other mature documentaries have become the benchmark of film and television quality creation.

  It not only has cross-cultural penetration, but also is an important support for the inheritance and development of Chinese civilization in the contemporary era.

  Food is not only a big IP of current Internet documentaries, but also an important symbol of China traditional culture. Long before the popularity of food documentaries, Chinese restaurants have opened all over the world and become the first window for many foreigners to know about China. With the audio-visual media becoming the most popular form of mass communication in the world, it has become a global phenomenon to understand China culture through audio-visual and food practice. Flavor Origin is the first documentary of China team that landed in Netflix, and a series of short videos on food topics released by online celebrity Liziqi on overseas platforms have also promoted the cross-cultural communication of China culture.

  Popular food documentaries not only introduce China’s diet with spectacular images and dramatic stories, but also use diet as a means to explore the world outlook, values and choices of lifestyle and interpersonal relationships belonging to China culture in a way that can be understood by contemporary and even world audiences. From the perspective of dietary anthropology, many cultural groups attach their unique feelings and concepts to the daily behavior of diet; Things not only define the social identity of individuals, but also convey a lot of information such as cultural habits and lifestyles. After the broadcast of China on the Tip of the Tongue, the popularity of "Tongue Tip" in social short videos and a large number of social discussions around food documentaries have proved that such documentaries have profoundly influenced the public’s imagination about their own culture, and even shaped and strengthened their shared life experiences and shared cultural patterns.

  In these audio-visual narratives about food culture, two kinds of cultural concepts have been loved by audiences at home and abroad. First of all, the traditional culture of China attaches importance to family affection, and the family has become an individual’s safe haven and gas station. This is not only the success of food documentaries that can constantly stir the heartstrings of China audiences, but also makes foreign audiences, especially those in Southeast Asia, feel familiar and close. Secondly, the familiarity and respect for everything in the world embodied in the food culture conveys the harmonious relationship between individuals and the world, and renders the connection between people and plants and mountains and rivers. These cultural elements and value systems not only have cross-cultural penetration, but also can be accepted by modern life, which is an important support for the inheritance and development of ancient China civilization in the contemporary era.

Documentary scenes and scenes full of life texture bring ordinary people’s daily life to the foreground.

  Another noteworthy feature of food documentary is that it is one of the few audio-visual works that insists on telling the daily stories of ordinary people. Although there are many international chefs and elites in the film, ordinary people are undoubtedly the main body in this kind of documentary, and their lives are often the most concerned and appreciated part of the audience. It has realized the people-centered creative requirements in the current field of literature and art in a quiet way, so that the daily struggle of ordinary people has gained its due position in the presentation of mass media.

  In the cultural category of "elegance and vulgarity" or "high and low", food is a typical popular culture that comes from the daily life of ordinary people and is based on oral instruction. In the documentary scene, Internet documentaries restore food to the daily meals of every ordinary family, paying attention to seasonal ingredients, regional natural ecology, and family concepts and kinship behind food processing and enjoyment, and activating the inherent beliefs of ordinary people about daily life such as "eating at home", "the taste of mom" and "the most common and delicious". In particular, films such as A String of Life, Breakfast in China and Wondering about Dongguan have opened up another "technical route" that highlights the "fireworks" in addition to the image style of wonders, accommodating more documentary scenes, daily dialogues and even seemingly unrelated chats, which are full of life texture.

  Ordinary people coming to the front of the film not only vividly show how China people extend their historical traditions to their present lives, but also help other cultural groups to overcome obstacles and barriers and get to know the real China people and China culture in the context of contemporary life. Compared with movie stars and development achievements, the ordinary life of ordinary members of society also has the value of cross-cultural sharing; A meal, rice, oil and salt can often stimulate the understanding of life under different appearances, bringing true mutual understanding and beauty.

The internal competition pattern of China table tennis team has changed: strong male table tennis enemies surround women table tennis opponents.

In 2022, the China table tennis team spent the first full season of the Paris Olympic cycle, won many laurels including the team world table tennis championships, and still stood at the top of the world table tennis world with the momentum of breaking bamboo. However, although the "teacher of the king" has made outstanding achievements, it is an indisputable fact that strong enemies are surrounded, especially the men’s table tennis crisis. While Xu Xin and Liu Shiwen, two veterans, are gradually fading out, the internal competition pattern of table tennis is also changing quietly.
The third man of the men’s team surfaced.
Wang Chuqin is the player who shines in table tennis this season. In the six high-level events that the main team played, the 22-year-old Beijing team won the singles four times.
After winning the first men’s singles championship in international competitions in 2019, Wang Chuqin once encountered a bottleneck in singles events. This season, he broke through himself, winning the WTT (World Table Tennis Professional League) Macau Competition at the beginning of the year, and winning the WTT Budapest Star Challenge in July. After helping the team dominate the Chengdu Team World Table Tennis Championships by "full attendance" in the knockout round, Wang Chuqin "sublimated" from technique and tactics to ideology, and then won the WTT Macau Championship and WTT World Cup again, and the world ranking rose to the third highest in his career.
Although there was no gain in the subsequent national championships and the Asian Cup in Bangkok, there is no doubt that Wang Chu Qin has made a leap this season and has gradually secured the position of the "third man" in men’s table tennis. In the singles competition, he defeated Fan Zhendong, Xu Xin, Lin Gaoyuan and many other major opponents of foreign associations throughout the year, and scored 3 wins and 1 loss against Malone. As a left-handed player, the former World Table Tennis Championship men’s doubles champion also won three mixed doubles championships and one men’s doubles championship with different players. If it can make a difference in next year’s individual World Table Tennis Championships, there should be no doubt that it will be included in the Paris Olympic lineup.
In addition to Wang Chuqin, two other non-Olympic champions in the main team of the men’s team, who are both "Mesozoic", have also won many foreign competition opportunities this season, but their performance is inferior. They not only won less than the main team of table tennis, but also lost foreign wars several times. Among them, Liang Jingkun, who will be 26 years old, once ranked third in the world, but only one WTT routine challenge singles champion was recorded, and he was banned by the Chinese Table Tennis Association at the end of the season for misconduct.
The 27-year-old Lin Gaoyuan continued the "champion shortage" for more than three years. After losing to his teammates twice at the beginning of the year and winning the runner-up, he wasted six match points in the final of WTT Budapest Championship in July, failing to seize the opportunity of meritorious service when his teammates were defeated. Although she won 2 gold medals and 2 silver medals at the end of the season, and narrowly won the men’s team final against Fan Zhendong by 17-15, she still failed to show convincing performance in the international arena.
The performance of the two main players of "Long Pang" this season is remarkable. Although veteran Malone only won a runner-up, he also lost only one off-court battle. Fan Zhendong, the world’s No.1, won one championship and one Asian in the absence of the European Summer Series, but it was defeated by both Chinese and foreign strong players.
In terms of opponents, compared with the Tokyo Olympic cycle, there are more rising stars in the Eurasian team in the new cycle, and the China men’s table tennis team, which has been hit hard in the international arena, is facing greater challenges. In almost every high-level competition, the China men’s team has lost the main foreign war. In the two WTT high-level events held in Budapest in July, Guoping was "delayed" by the men’s team. Among them, Korean men’s doubles "new and old combination" Zhao Dacheng/Li Shangzhu, Lian Ke, Wang Chuqin/Malone, Liang Jingkun/Lin Gaoyuan won the Star Challenge. In the subsequent singles championship, China men’s table tennis four without Fan Zhendong were all eliminated by foreign association players, which sounded the alarm for preparing for the Olympic Games.
Healthy competition of four "golden flowers" for women’s teams
Compared with the men’s team, the performance of China women’s table tennis in the world is still strong, and its "Jianghu status" is impregnable. Not only that, with the birth of Wang Yidi, healthy competition has also formed within the women’s team, and four "golden flowers" compete with each other and promote each other.
The 25-year-old Wang Yidi has a strong upward trend in the new cycle, and broke into the semi-finals in the World Championships last year. This season, she has won many successes in high-level events and impacted the "three main players", which proves that it is no accident that she ranks among the top four in the World Championships with stable performance. In March’s WTT Grand Slam and October’s World Cup, she reached the semi-finals. In July’s WTT European Summer Series, Sun Yingsha was a "double kill", winning 1 crown and 1 Asian. In the two events at the end of the season, Wang Yidi first won the women’s team and the women’s singles in the all-round championship, among which she narrowly beat Manyu Wang to reach the top for the first time in the singles final, and then reversed Ito Meicheng’s first seal in the Asian Cup. Next year’s individual World Championships will be the "outpost" of the Paris Olympic Games. If this season’s momentum can be continued, Wang Yidi’s impact on the Olympic lineup is by no means empty talk.
However, judging from the lineup of this year’s World Table Tennis Championships, the position of the "trio" who won the team championship of the Tokyo Olympic Games for women’s table tennis has not wavered for the time being. As a "big sister", Chen Meng, 28, has made it clear that her sword refers to Paris. This year, she won 1 crown and 1 Asian in the international arena, and her performance is still stable. The two "new generations" won two championships and one Asian respectively. Among them, Sun Yingsha won two championships in the "China season" in October, and continued her unbeaten performance in foreign wars. Manyu Wang, the champion of the World Table Tennis Championships, topped the WTT Macau Tournament in January and the Budapest Championship in July, and won the mixed doubles champion and runner-up in the women’s singles in the all-round championship, with a stable record throughout the year.
Chen Xingtong, the same age as Wang Yidi and selected for the team World Table Tennis Championships, has not yet withdrawn from the competition, but his position has become marginal. Its performance in the competition fluctuated and did not pose a threat to the four main players.
Looking around the world, China women’s table tennis, with fierce internal competition, is strong, even stronger in the new cycle, not only rarely losing foreign wars, but also winning the championship, runner-up and even the semi-finals. At the World Table Tennis Championships in Chengdu in October, China defended its title by crushing its opponents, without losing a set in eight games, only losing two sets. In the ——WTT Macau Championship, the only high-level event with frequent "accidents", Manyu Wang and Chen Meng lost to European players in the first two rounds, but Chen Xingtong and Sun Yingsha still joined forces in the final, which fully reflected the strength and thickness, and also made major rivals such as Ito Meicheng feel the despair of "pressing the gourd to float the ladle".
In addition, Manyu Wang and Sun Yingsha’s women’s doubles team beat Miki Ito/Hayata Hina in the final of high-level events twice this year after last year’s World Championships, almost beating their opponents over. Both singles and doubles have a "fault" strength advantage, so it is difficult for China women’s table tennis to defend its title in the Paris Olympic Games.
