Guangxi legislation: self-heating food is prohibited on trains, and offenders can be fined up to 2000 yuan.

Dear friends in Guangxi, pay attention!

In the future, you will bear legal responsibility for obstructing the departure of the train, occupying seats on the train, eating self-heating meals on the train, and beating and abusing train staff!

A few days ago, the Regulations on Railway Safety Management in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, which was voted by the 10th meeting of the Standing Committee of the 13th National People’s Congress of the autonomous region, will be implemented on October 1st.

The regulations clearly define the safety protection zones outside the scope of railway land use according to law, and set up prohibitions on the protection zones, such as prohibiting the discharge of fireworks and firecrackers; Implement "air control" along the railway, such as prohibiting the flying of civilian drones, kites, balloons, Kongming lanterns and other low-altitude floating objects within 500 meters of railway circuit lines;

Fourteen prohibited acts endangering the order of railway stations and cars and railway safety have been set up, such as forcibly boarding, occupying other people’s seats, beating and abusing train staff, and corresponding legal responsibilities have been set up for these prohibited acts.

Fireworks and firecrackers are prohibited in the safety protection zone.

In recent years, Guangxi Railway has achieved a magnificent turn from the end of the road network to the regional hub. At present, the mileage of high-speed rail in Guangxi has reached 1,771 kilometers, ranking among the top 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in China. The EMUs reach 12 districts and municipalities in the whole region, 20 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, basically forming a modern road network pattern of "North Link, South Link, East Link and West Link".

There are many mountains and few plains in Guangxi, the proportion of railway bridges and tunnels is high, and there are many bad weather such as typhoons and rainstorms. With the rapid expansion of railway network, especially high-speed railway network, the speed and density of trains are increasing, and the risks faced by railway safety are becoming more and more severe. In order to strengthen the safety of railway lines and ensure the safety of passengers’ personal and property, the bill proposes to implement closed management of railways, set up safety protection zones, expand the prohibited acts, restricted acts and related control requirements in railway line safety protection zones and their adjacent areas, and refine and supplement relevant regulations.

The Bill proposes "control of light floating objects", for example, it is forbidden to fly birds, fly kites, balloons, drones and other low-altitude floating objects within 500 meters on both sides of railway power lines. At the same time, it is clear that under the railway bridge, no buildings or structures that affect railway safety, parking lots, shops, stacked items, processing and production, etc. are allowed, and offenders will bear corresponding legal responsibilities.

Self-heating food is prohibited on the train.

In recent years, the speed of trains in Guangxi has been continuously improved, and the number of EMU trips has increased, which greatly facilitates citizens to travel. Some self-heated rice, hot pot and dishes in railway food are welcomed by passengers because of their convenience. In fact, if self-heating food is not heated properly, it is easy to induce smoke, which poses a safety hazard to the operation of motor trains. According to media reports, when heating self-heated rice, passengers put the quicklime in the heating bag directly into the plastic box, which caused a lot of smoke after adding water and triggered the smoke alarm.

In addition to improving the provisions on pit stop management, ride management, consignment management and food safety management in railway operation, the bill also clearly stipulates that it is forbidden to eat self-heating food on EMU trains.

The Bill intends to stipulate that the public security organ shall order the unit to make corrections, impose a fine of more than 10,000 yuan but less than 50,000 yuan, and impose a fine of more than 2,000 yuan on the individual in 500 yuan for the prohibited acts that endanger the order of railway stations and cars and railway safety, such as forcibly occupying other people’s seats, forcibly boarding, refusing to get off the bus, and using self-contained heated food. If it constitutes a violation of public security administration, the public security organ shall impose administrative penalties on public security according to law.

Passenger violations will be included in the untrustworthy system.

If you miss the check-in time, the passengers still break into the ticket gate, and even don’t listen to the obstruction of crossing the platform and kicking the station door to vent their emotions. Such behavior is not only condemned by the society, but also faces the risk of discrediting their own credit.

In April this year, at Nanning Railway Station, a female passenger with a child, who missed the ticket checking time, forcibly broke into the ticket gate and vented her emotions and kicked the station gate, was finally included in the dishonesty system by the railway department and was punished by railway police for administrative detention.

The regulations clearly stipulate that relevant departments and railway transport enterprises should establish and improve the railway passenger credit information management system, and include acts that disrupt the order of railway station and train transportation, endanger railway safety, and seriously violate the safety management rules and regulations of railway transport enterprises into the record of dishonesty in the railway system, and push national and local credit information sharing platforms according to regulations. Relevant departments and railway transport enterprises shall, in accordance with the provisions, implement joint punishment for dishonesty.

Let’s see which 14 behaviors are explicitly prohibited!

● Interfere with the gate or door switch, forcibly enter and exit the gate, get on and off the train.

● Staying on the platform or crossing the platform.

● Unauthorized entry into railway lines, closed areas of stations or other prohibited areas.

● Unauthorized entry into the working areas such as the train driver’s cab and machinery room.

● Unauthorized entry into workplaces such as equipment management and traffic scheduling.

● Occupy other people’s seats.

● Blocking the train, hindering the departure, or forcibly boarding or refusing to get off the train, which affects the train operation.

● Place and abandon obstacles on the railway line.

● Throw items that affect traffic safety to the running train.

● Smoking on trains where smoking is prohibited, smoking in train no-smoking areas or cigarette substitutes that can generate smoke, and using self-contained heated food that can induce smoke alarm on EMU trains, etc.

● Beat, abuse and insult the station and train staff.

● Interfere with railway computer information system.

● Spreading false information that affects railway safety.

● Other acts that endanger the order of railway stations and cars and railway safety prohibited by laws and regulations.

BMW executives watched domestic Benda, Liao 700Pro and others appear at this Beijing Motor Show.

picture

At the 2024 Beijing International Motor Show, the Benda booth was surrounded by a group of BMW executives. The models we watched are the newly released Liao 700Pro and other new cars on the booth. Let’s also see why the new Benda car allows these executives to observe it carefully.

picture

picture

The newly released Liao 700Pro is exactly the same as the old model, and it still has super high recognition. But it has hidden mystery, and foldable electro-optic wings are hidden on both sides of the fuel tank.

picture

When it unfolds slowly, it can definitely become the focus of the surrounding riders, and the special effects are directly filled.

picture

In terms of practicality, this electro-optical wing spotlight can also provide a larger irradiation area, which can escort riding at night. The most important thing is that this is the original factory configuration and can not be illegally modified.

picture

Liao 700Pro has also been upgraded in configuration, equipped with Yunchi dual-cavity airbag for shock absorption, so that the seat height can be adjusted from 650 to 730mm to adapt to knights of different heights, and it can also adjust the hardness to cope with different road conditions, thus providing a comfortable driving experience. The front shock absorption is KYB adjustable inverted shock absorption, and this KYB front shock absorption performance is also excellent in the previous test drive.

picture

The power is still the 680cc inline four-cylinder engine, with the maximum power of 69kW/11000rpm and the maximum torque of 63 N m/8500 rpm. The combination of this four-cylinder engine and the cruise car can give you a different driving experience. This engine is an early four-cylinder model in China. After the market test in recent years and the optimization of Benda, its performance and stability have been improved to some extent.

picture

The kerb quality remains at 235kg. You should know that Liao 700pro has increased airbag shock absorption and electro-optic wing spotlights. According to common sense, the weight should increase, but the kerb quality remains the same, which means that Benda must have lightened other parts. The most likely part to lose weight should be its all-aluminum integrated die-casting frame.

picture

The front Brembo straight-bolt caliper with double floating discs and the rear Brembo single-piston caliper with single disc are used for braking. This braking system can handle 235kg curb weight and this power. At the same time, dual-channel ABS is also standard, but unexpectedly TCS did not see it.

picture

Motorcycle intelligent system is the follow-up trend. Liao 700Pro is also equipped with BCD intelligent car networking system, through which the detailed information of vehicles can be mastered, and the man-machine interaction function can be realized through the brand-new TFT instrument.

picture

Judging from the power unit and vehicle configuration of Liao 700pro, it is more suitable for long-distance straight-line attack, and the fierce curve is not its home. However, compared with the old 310mm rear wheel width, the Pro version of the 300mm rear wheel can improve some control flexibility. Although the flexibility has been improved, don’t expect too much. The most suitable gameplay for him is comfortable straight-line cruising. With the four-cylinder high-speed output and the front stamping air intake, straight-line oil supply will become a very cool thing.

picture

In addition to the brand-new Liao 700Pro, Benda also unveiled the infinitely variable speed Jinjila 550CVT ACE. I think Benda’s vehicle shape design is once again at the forefront of domestic counterparts.

picture

Headlights are designed with circular hollowing out, which not only retains the retro charm, but also takes into account the elements of modern fashion.

picture

The most important thing is the power system, which has no clutch on the left handlebar. According to the field data of Benda, this CVT technology originated from Benda Gong’s patent to upgrade all-terrain vehicles. The application scope covers the power platform of 250 to 600cc. Simply speaking, this CVT has the characteristics of high efficiency, long life and quieter. After being combined with a motorcycle, it can greatly reduce the difficulty of control, and novices can ride with peace of mind, and they are no longer afraid to start and kill the car.

picture

Napoleon 250, which was released not long ago, is also the focus of riders’ attention. With the suggested retail price of 18,380 yuan, it is still very attractive to have such a cruise car with high value and high recognition.

picture

The overall appearance adopts BOBBER style design, and the original mechanical sense is very strong, and the round headlights at the front are the finishing touch.

picture

The shock absorption of Napoleon 250 is unique. The front suspension is composed of conventional shock absorption plus multi-link structure and external spring. Let’s not talk about the shock absorption effect of this set, because we haven’t tried it. But in terms of appearance, it is still very attractive.

picture

The design of the rear suspension is also brilliant. From a distance, it is a classic hard-tail structure. From a close look, it combines the characteristics of soft tail. With the multi-link damping structure, the rear reduction stroke can be increased, thus improving comfort and stability. When I get the test drive, I must experience this brand-new form of shock absorption and share it with you.

picture

Although Benda is not a first-line brand in the domestic market, we can see their efforts and innovations along the way. In terms of the design of the cruise car, it can be said that it is the first-class level in China, otherwise it will not be carefully observed by BMW executives. I hope Benda will make persistent efforts to build a better motorcycle for motorcycle friends.

The escort rider care and support team was awarded the "High-energy Team" in Harvard Business Review.

 On August 18th, the second "High-energy Team Award" sponsored by Harvard Business Review and FESCO was officially announced. After eight months’ selection, the "Care and Protection Team of Flash Company" stood out from more than 100 participating enterprise teams and won the grand prize of the High-energy Team Award.

"High-energy Team Award" is a heavy award for organizational management, aiming at finding and commending those high-energy teams that are constantly evolving and surpassing themselves in the organization, and exploring new methods of enterprise management in the future. In order to let more excellent teams be seen and valued, provide learning and reference experience for enterprise organization and management, and produce greater social value. This year’s "High-Energy Team Award" was reviewed from six dimensions: innovation ability, strategic execution ability, agile response ability, performance influence ability, team attraction ability and team resilience, resulting in three full-court awards and 30 individual awards.

As a pioneer in the field of one-hour instant delivery service in the same city, Flash Delivery provides users with one-to-one express delivery service in the same city for 7×24 hours, helping users solve various "urgent, busy, lazy and difficult" problems.

"Emergency rescue" is a common situation encountered by couriers. The existence of couriers greatly relieves people’s anxiety and makes people’s work and life more calm and beautiful. Once a company boss found that he forgot to bring important documents when he was approaching the meeting place, and asked his assistant to deliver them by car urgently. However, due to the traffic jam, the assistant could not arrive at the specified time. In desperation, he parked his car on the side of the road, called for a flash delivery, and repeatedly told him to deliver them on time, otherwise he would be criticized. With the flexible advantages of electric vehicles, the flasher delivers the documents to the recipients within the specified time, so that the meeting can proceed smoothly. Afterwards, the assistant was praised by the boss for his flexibility.

Up to now, the number of licensing flashers on the flash platform has exceeded 2 million, and the number of service users has exceeded 100 million. The rider is the transmitter and practitioner of the flash value. Flash has been striving to build a win-win ecology with the rider, so that they can take orders comfortably, safely and happily to help more users. Therefore, the "care and protection team of the flash driver" has successively launched a number of care measures, such as rider safety protection, reducing the cost of taking orders, improving the experience of taking orders, promoting the career of riders, caring for riders, and improving the service of riders’ cultural life.

In terms of rider protection, flash always puts personal safety in the first place, and occasionally provides traffic safety training for flash drivers in conjunction with local traffic control departments throughout the country, always reminding flash drivers to regulate their travel and travel safely; In special periods such as high temperature, severe cold and disasters, the "Escort Care and Support Team" will provide all kinds of materials for the escorting staff free of charge to protect the rights and interests of riders.

In terms of career development, in order to provide a venue for emotional communication for couriers, since 2022, Flash has set up a "home for riders" in many cities across the country to provide them with comprehensive operation and service guarantee places such as induction training, communication, problem solving, coffee breaks and offline activities; At the same time, Flash-forward launched activities such as "Gold Medal Lecturer" and "Rider Communication Camp" internally, and invited excellent riders to share the skills of taking orders for new riders, so as to improve the high-quality service ability of flash-forward, thus helping users better and solving practical difficulties for users. And open a career promotion channel, excellent flashers can be hired as formal employees of the company.

In terms of family care, Flash has launched the "College Entrance Examination Aid Program". Since 2020, it has provided free tuition for flash attendants or their children who have been admitted to excellent colleges and universities for one year, which not only rewards their excellent academic performance, but also helps flash attendants to reduce their family financial pressure.

"Deliver with kindness" is the service concept of flash delivery. For a long time, flash delivery has promoted the cultural construction of "kindness and altruism" among riders and established a "love reward plan", which has also made the platform care for riders and the riders give back to the society. In the future, the "Escort Care and Support Team" will continue to work from the aspects of order taking mechanism, income security, training and learning, and health security to provide more convenience for riders.

More fashionable and more fun

On August 6th, the National Fitness Online Games ushered in the 100th day of its official launch. Up to now, the cumulative number of participants in the event has exceeded 12 million, and more than 2.7 million certificates have been issued. The cumulative number of hits in various events has exceeded 1.5 billion, and the cumulative exposure of the event has reached more than 5 billion. In addition to the traditional projects with high participation such as running, the newly launched four projects are also popular, attracting public participation.

At present, the online sports events of the National Fitness Online Games have included more than 100 events, including intellectual sports, cycling and running, physical strength, dancing, ice and snow, scientific fitness videos and so on. In traditional sports, the participation of sports such as ball games, running, cycling and skipping rope has been very high, while the four newly launched sports such as softball, AI broadcast gymnastics, physical fitness and frisbee have also become the projects that more and more sports enthusiasts are competing to participate in, and they are quickly popular.

Softball: Young people are also involved.

Softball, also known as Taiji Softball, has a racket similar to that of badminton. The difference is that the hitting surface of Softball racket is not a net structure, but a thin cloth shape with Tai Chi patterns printed on it. The ball is a bit like tennis, with a hard shell in the middle, leather in the outer layer and fine sand in the inner layer. Its method of catching and throwing the ball is completely different from badminton and tennis. It pays attention to the tangent angle at the moment when the racket touches the ball, and throws the ball tangent after entering the racket to take the ball in a complete arc, and has four basic elements: welcome, accept, lead and throw.

Softball is a sport that needs to release its strength with softness. Although it looks simple, it has high technical requirements, paying attention to being soft and rigid, avoiding hitting, being good at buffering when catching the ball, and the actual amount of exercise is not small. Wang Shuying, a 62-year-old from Tongchuan, Shaanxi Province, has been practicing softball for more than ten years. Her summary of this sport is: "Softball seems to be relaxed and comfortable to practice, but the strength balance and orientation control need to be coordinated with the whole body, and the exercise effect is self-evident."

Judging from the participation in this online sports meeting, the popularity of softball exceeds many people’s expectations. The participants ranged from children to the elderly. According to statistics, more than 6,700 videos were uploaded to this online sports meeting, with nearly 19.47 million people playing. I believe that softball will be welcomed by more and more people in the future.

Physical fitness program: suitable for people who like to do a lot of exercise.

Opening and closing, squatting, leg lifting and skipping are four basic sports, which are the four sports challenges of physical fitness in this online sports meeting. In Le Power’s "Comprehensive Sports AI Challenge" competition area, AI technology is used to provide tricks for this online activity. Through intelligent recognition, participants can complete their actions more accurately and exercise better.

However, compared with other online sports events, physical fitness events are called "Little Iron Man Events" by many sports enthusiasts. Just like the name of the project-physical fitness, it requires participants’ physical fitness and endurance, and tests the comprehensive ability and core strength of athletes. However, many sports fans actively signed up for the physical fitness events of this online sports meeting, which really surprised many people.

The explosion of physical fitness events is actually benefiting from the vigorous development of the national fitness campaign in recent years. More and more people have begun to like sports and even made it a habit in life.

AI broadcast gymnastics: start exercising anytime, anywhere

Broadcast gymnastics is a familiar experience for Chinese people. When everyone is studying, broadcast gymnastics is an unforgettable memory. However, with the vigorous development of running, cycling and other sports, broadcast gymnastics has gradually become a memory in many people’s minds. However, when the AI broadcast gymnastics of the online sports meeting was launched, it unexpectedly encountered great enthusiasm for participation, which I believe also made many people find their former happiness.

The broadcast gymnastics of this online sports meeting is combined with artificial intelligence technology-AI broadcast gymnastics. Participants can start fitness as long as they enter the interface of "National Smart Community AI Broadcasting Exercise Workshop Exercise" in the Yuedong Circle App and let their bodies enter the range of the mobile phone camera. The AI system is matched with the ninth set of broadcast gymnastics single demonstration teaching version film through 17 points on the joint parts of the operator’s head, facial features, neck and waist, limbs, etc., to form a scoring system, which realizes accurate counting, real-time scoring and ranking of a set of broadcast gymnastics practiced by the masses.

Frisbee: retro sports are hot and "out of the circle"

Almost overnight, Frisbee, a retro sport, swept the country, and the "National Fitness Online Games 2022 National Frisbee Online Challenge" hosted by the National Frisbee Promotion Committee also caused a registration boom.

With the breaking of Frisbee, it has become a new way of life and social interaction. During the Frisbee Online Challenge, Frisbee enthusiasts and practitioners from all walks of life joined hands with many influential people in different fields to start the cross-border Frisbee relay in Weibo Division. The topic of Frisbee national relay has been read by over 100 million people, which indicates that outdoor sports events represented by Frisbee will continue to promote the all-round revival of the sports industry.

On the occasion of "National Fitness Day" on August 8th, the online sports meeting will also combine the theme activities of "National Fitness Day" and launch a number of online events on the Internet sports platform, such as running, cycling, triathlon and other events. Local sports bureaus will also hold different types of sports events, including ball games, square dances, aerobics dances, Tai Ji Chuan, fitness qigong and other popular items, as well as rich online display items such as skipping rope, chess and cards, martial arts, ice and snow, fitness science, and collective fun activities such as family games and community games.

The popularity of the "National Fitness Online Games" reflects the people’s attention to health and their pursuit of quality of life. Scientific and technological means empower the whole people’s fitness, and the fitness method can change with time and need, and it is "zero distance" from life. In the future, the "National Fitness Online Games" will continue to promote the development of national participation, national sharing and national health with high quality, and launch more sports that integrate the characteristics of fitness, fun and high technology, so that everyone can gain more health and fun in sports.

Blind roads do not help "blind" travel obstacles.

  

  Battery cars, etc. are parked on the blind road.

  

  Manhole covers and fire hydrants are located on blind roads.

  Recently, some citizens reported to the "People’s Voice" column of the "Panzhihua Open" client that some sections of the East District and Renhe District have blind roads broken and occupied, and some places even lack blind roads, which makes the blind roads unable to help, but becomes an obstacle for blind people to travel.

  According to the clues provided by enthusiastic citizens, the reporter came to the sidewalk opposite the Renhe police station in Renhe District (Wanzhuang) and saw that there were two dead ends in the blind road, which disappeared when laid next to the stairs, without any tips for the blind; On the other side of the sidewalk not far away, there is a truck unloading, which just occupies the blind road.

  "When we walk, we will be beheaded. We can’t find a blind road. We can only find our way slowly. If we find another place, we will go further and further. For us blind people, it is definitely inconvenient to travel like this. " In the interview, Xiao Zhao (a pseudonym), a visually impaired person, told reporters that although his eyes have lost color, he is usually willing to go out for a walk. What helped him travel safely was the blind cane in his hand, which was the blind road under his feet. Everywhere he goes, he will find the blind road with a blind stick, and then remember the road in his heart.

  Later, the reporter came to the intersection of Tianjin Road in the East District and saw that there were some manhole covers, fire hydrants and telephone poles on the nearby blind road, which blocked the smooth flow of the blind road and became a "roadblock" for the blind. What’s more, there is no blind road at all on the sidewalk on Linjiang Road.

  In addition to the lack of blind roads and unreasonable laying, some blind roads are occupied everywhere. In many sections, tables and chairs, round stone piers and other items are placed in the middle of the blind road, and battery cars, motorcycles and even cars are parked on the blind road.

  The original intention of laying blind roads is to provide convenience for the visually impaired. However, these repeated blind roads are broken and occupied, which leads to the blind roads not helping, but there are security risks. Xiao Zhao told reporters that he often bumps into things on the blind road, sometimes bumps into fire hydrants and telephone poles, and sometimes knocks over other people’s battery cars, and he will be injured. Sister Chen, a security guard in a residential area, said that they are well aware of the impact of obstructing blind roads on the blind, so they usually come forward to dissuade employees of shops from parking motorcycles and other items on the blind roads. Xiao Zhao hopes that the relevant departments can pay attention to it and let the blind road play its due role.

  Blind roads are an important part of urban municipal infrastructure, and building and managing blind roads is a basic livelihood work. At present, are the relevant management departments aware of these problems in blind roads?

  On the same day, the reporter contacted the Municipal Housing and Construction Bureau, Renhe District Comprehensive Administrative Law Enforcement Bureau and other units. Relevant units said that this issue is also the focus of their attention, and they are continuing to carry out inventory rectification and dynamic management. In view of the unreasonable blind road setting, they will immediately arrange personnel and cooperate with relevant units to carry out rectification. For all kinds of goods and vehicles occupying blind roads, we will also intensify rectification actions, do a good job in publicity and guidance, and improve the integrity rate, accessibility and convenience of blind road facilities.

  The reporter of "People’s Voice" column will continue to pay attention to the follow-up blind road rectification. (Reporter Wang Zhixuan from the Municipal Media Center, Wu Xiaolong, text/photo)

A number of scientific apparatus have been steadily promoted and a number of important scientific research achievements have been achieved.

  CCTV News:As the bearing area of a comprehensive national science center — — Beijing Huairou Science City is currently accelerating its construction. The "Five scientific apparatus" which was laid out in advance is progressing steadily, and some devices are expected to be put into formal operation in 2024.

  The main building of the first high-energy synchrotron radiation light source in China was completed.

  In Huairou Science City, Beijing, the main building of China’s first high-energy synchrotron radiation light source has been completed, and scientific instruments are being installed and debugged inside it.

  It can emit light 1 trillion times brighter than the sun and has a wide range of uses.

  High energy synchrotron radiation source is one of the fourth generation synchrotron radiation sources with the highest brightness in the world. Seen from the air, this building is like a magnifying glass. In particular, this magnifying glass can emit light 1 trillion times brighter than the sun. Generally speaking, the higher the brightness, the clearer you can see. Here, we can analyze the microstructure and evolution mechanism of matter in a deeper level, and enhance the original innovation ability of China’s national development strategy and frontier basic science and technology fields.

  At the same time, scientific apparatus, a multi-modal and cross-scale biomedical imaging facility and the second phase of Meridian Project, will strive to complete the national acceptance and put it into formal operation in 2024. International Public Service Center for Scientists at Home and Abroad — — At present, the construction of urban living room has also entered the final stage and will be unveiled soon.

  Integrating ultra-low temperature, strong magnetic field, ultra-high voltage and ultra-fast light field

  People’s search for the limits of the physical world has never stopped. If we say that the high-energy synchrotron radiation light source project is pursuing the brightest light on the earth, then the adjacent "Comprehensive Extreme Condition Experimental Device of Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences" pursues the lowest temperature, the highest pressure, the strongest magnetic field and the fastest light field on the earth, helping us to carry out cutting-edge scientific research.

  It can be used in frontier research such as quantum regulation of material synthesis.

  "Comprehensive Extreme Condition Experimental Device" is a major scientific and technological infrastructure project in the Twelfth Five-Year Plan, which integrates extreme conditions such as extremely low temperature, strong magnetic field, ultra-high voltage and ultra-fast light field. Using these extreme conditions, we can carry out the frontier research of material science such as material synthesis, physical property characterization, quantum regulation and ultrafast process.

  The "Comprehensive Extreme Condition Experimental Device" project started construction on September 30, 2017, and it is the first major national science and technology infrastructure in Huairou Science City. At present, it has entered the trial operation stage and opened applications to domestic and foreign users, and has achieved a number of important scientific research results.

  The whole scale from biomolecules to human body can be "photographed"

  In Huairou Science City, Beijing, China’s first big scientific project in the biomedical field — — Multi-modal cross-scale biomedical imaging facilities have been put into trial operation.

  Creating a "virtual earth" can study global climate change.

  As one of the five scientific apparatus laid out in Huairou Science City in advance — — The first numerical simulation device of the earth system independently developed by China has completed the national acceptance and officially opened to the outside world. This device will provide scientific support for global climate change, environmental protection and other major issues.

  The earth system numerical simulation device, also known as the "Earth Simulation Laboratory", is the first numerical simulation platform of the earth system with completely independent intellectual property rights in China. It builds a comprehensive research platform by integrating the numerical simulation software of several earth system layers, such as atmosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, lithosphere and biosphere.

  The numerical simulation device of the earth system can not only be widely used in climate change research, environmental monitoring and evaluation, natural disaster prediction and other fields. In the most urgent field of climate change response and carbon neutrality, the system can also pay attention to global ecological and biogeochemical processes and their interaction with the climate system in an all-round way, and on this basis, establish an "ecological — Temperature — Carbon dioxide concentration — Carbon emissions "provides a powerful simulation support for greenhouse gas accounting and future warming prediction, and helps realize the vision of peak carbon dioxide emissions and carbon neutrality.

Tesla’s Dream: How will Musk make it come true?

Original title: My dream: How does Musk make it come true?

[

When Tesla finally achieved the "small goal" of producing 5,000 Model 3s per week, the outside world questioned whether this "explosive growth" could be sustained;

When Tesla signed an investment agreement to build a factory in Shanghai Lingang, it was controversial. "What should Tesla take to build a factory?" "Building a factory in China means localization, and the car must be cheap?"

When Tesla issued a "small goal" to achieve profitability in the third quarter, it was reported that some orders for Model 3 were cancelled. Musk responded: Where did the rumor come from?

Recently, Tesla has been busy clarifying the storm of "requesting suppliers to refund", and responded that "it is only to lower the price of unfinished projects to improve cash flow."

Tesla’s controversy has never stopped, and difficulties have been overcome one after another. With the attention of peers and fans all over the world, Tesla is developing with twists and turns. Musk said: "Being a business is like eating glass and staring at the abyss of death, if it looks attractive." This sentence is humorous, starting a business is not so easy, the dream is full, and the reality is always very skinny.

No matter how many arguments are sung against Tesla and how many voices are questioned, "Iron Man" Musk will always be confident. Throughout his life experience, from rocket to Mars, he has always been a crazy dreamer. When we are all in doubt, Musk has been telling us with actions: Dreams are to be realized!

Daimler saves Tesla.

In 2003, Tesla was founded in the United States. Five years later, Tesla released the first automobile product Roadster, which is a two-door sports car. It was not until 2012 that Tesla released its second car product-Model S, a four-door pure electric luxury coupe. The third car product is Model X, a luxury pure electric SUV, which was delivered in September 2015. Tesla’s affordable car Model 3 was first released in March 2016 or delivered in the first half of 2019.

Years of R&D and investment, and a lot of money burning, made Tesla face bankruptcy crisis many times in the development process, which can be described as a narrow escape.

In 2009, Tesla received a US$ 5 billion investment from Daimler. This is undoubtedly a breathing space for Tesla, which has difficulties in capital turnover. Why should Daimler contribute to Tesla as a venture capital company? When asked about the reason, Herbert Kohler of Daimler said: "Tesla has created a new era, and it has the power to let us participate in the electric vehicle industry." Roadster not only runs faster than, but also accelerates the development of electric vehicle industry.

The production of Roadster is not mass-produced by big machines, but "hand-made". Roadster’s control panel was sent to the British factory by the French manufacturer, and then sent to the United States after the control panel was installed on the car body. Roadster’s transmission is produced by Borgwarner, and its braking system and inner tube are produced by Siemens of Germany. In a word, Tesla concentrates the parts and semi-finished products produced by all countries in the world in California, where the power devices such as batteries and electric motors are assembled by hand, and finally the whole car is produced.

Tesla also received support from the US government. In June 2009, the energy department of the United States officially decided to provide Tesla with a low-interest loan of $465 million. Originally, since the Bush administration, in order to promote the development of electric vehicles and hybrid fuel vehicles, the US government has provided low-interest loans to such companies in China.

After Obama took office, such projects increased further, and the ATVM (Advanced Automobile Manufacturing Technology) project of the US Department of Energy invested $8 billion in automobile manufacturing. When it was first implemented in June 2009, the company accepted financing of 5.9 billion US dollars, and the car accepted 1.4 billion US dollars. Tesla was also listed in the list of support.

After that, the automobile company and Matsushita Electric, which have a high market share in the lithium battery industry, contributed 50 million dollars and 30 million dollars to Tesla respectively, and Tesla finally passed the darkest year.

What gives them greater support is the financial assistance of the US government on ATVM. They gave Tesla not only a huge sum of money, but also a strong long-term support, and the market’s expectations for Tesla unexpectedly rose.

On May 21st, 2010, accompanied by Arnold Schwarzenegger, Governor of California, Musk and Akio Toyoda announced their business cooperation on electric vehicles. This moment has turned a new page for both companies. Tesla received a grant of $500,000 from Toyota.

Since Tesla released the affordable and popular Model 3 in 2016, the optimism about Tesla’s transformation into a mass-market electric vehicle manufacturer has boosted the company’s market value, and surpassed Ford and General Motors for the first time last year, becoming the second car manufacturer in the world. Since the beginning of this year, due to the bottleneck of Model 3′ s capacity climbing, Tesla’s share price has fluctuated like a roller coaster, but it still rose by 10% compared with the end of last year, and the company’s total market value reached 58.2 billion US dollars.

Tesla’s "Small Target"

Tesla has a great dream to promote the transformation of the world to sustainable energy. By popularizing solar power generation and electric vehicles, we can get rid of dependence on petroleum energy, effectively cope with climate change and realize the sustainable development of energy.

Tesla’s dream is very big. In order to realize the big dream, many small goals have been set, some of which have been achieved and some are on the way to realization. Make a list for your reference.

1. Produce 5,000 Model 3 vehicles per week (the small goal has been achieved), and make a profit in Q3 (on the way to realization).

2.Model Y is tentatively scheduled to be released in March or Q2 next year, and the mass production time of Model Y (Semi Truck semi-trailer and new Roadster) will be two years later.

3. Continue to build new super charging stations around the world. At present, the number of charging piles in the world has reached 9,969. Most of the design work of the third generation super-filled pile with output power of 200 kW-250 kW has been completed and will be launched at the end of this year. The third-generation charging station will be highly integrated with solar panels and no longer need to be connected to the power grid. Musk said that this will "promote major changes in the charging infrastructure" and greatly accelerate the expansion of the charging network.

4. In the future, Tesla will launch the Space X optional package for it, and the performance parameters currently announced are the specifications of Roadster Basic Edition. Through the new Roadster, it is proved to the public that electric vehicles can surpass internal combustion engine sports cars in all aspects and completely smash the powerful aura established by internal combustion engine sports cars in the hearts of the general public.

Next year’s battery production capacity will increase substantially, exceeding the sum of other battery factories in the world. Tesla battery has both the highest energy density and the lowest cost. At present, some breakthroughs have been made in battery density and cost. If there is no significant fluctuation in material cost, the cost of Tesla batteries will be less than $100 /kWh by the end of this year. At the same time, the cost of battery Pack will be reduced to $100 /kWh in the next two years.

With the current technical reserve, Tesla has mastered the technical scheme of improving the battery performance by 30%-40% again, and it is expected that it can be improved by 30% in the next 2-3 years, and the energy density will be doubled by improving the lithium anode in the next 6-8 years.

6. Build a factory in China. (An investment agreement has been signed)

……

Tesla is still carrying out the layout of the whole industrial chain, subverting the traditional automobile marketing model and profit model, and building a complete and closed ecology, including R&D, battery factory, direct store, super charging station, Network, etc. After the sale, it is the beginning of service, providing car owners with networking/cloud services, software upgrades, super charging station, Powerwall, big data, etc., and it is expected to realize the value of the whole life cycle in the future.

Whether Tesla’s dreams can be realized one by one will take time to verify.

Tesla doesn’t advertise.

Building a car is an industry with a long industrial chain and high technology and capital intensity. Tesla has been listed for 8 years, but it has not yet achieved annual profit. The debt crisis and production capacity cannot keep up, which has always been a problem facing Tesla. This will also be a problem that the new domestic car-making forces will face.

Compared with the new domestic car-making forces, Tesla has more than ten years of technical accumulation and exploration experience, which has not only been widely recognized by the market, but also made outstanding achievements in technology research and development. Therefore, the new domestic car-making forces often use Tesla as a benchmark to compare products and learn from their development ideas.

Tesla redefines automobile products, not only electric vehicles, but also intelligent, internet-based and technological products. Early domestic electric vehicle products, for the purpose of getting subsidies to reduce the terminal price, were only electrified in power, mostly electrified on traditional platforms, with a low level of intelligence, and mostly adopted some scientific and technological configurations. Tesla’s electrification is only the foundation. It continuously enhances the customer experience through Internet technology configuration and automated driving, and at the same time drives the application of intelligence and IOT in the automotive field, so it is full of science and technology.

Compared with the power loss of traditional fuel vehicles, electric vehicles are born with the advantage of large torque. The characteristics of speed-up and lightness are vividly displayed in Tesla. Tesla’s sense of speed is also a big advantage.

In addition, Tesla also has a certain sense of value. The price of Tesla is much higher than that of ordinary electric vehicles, and consumers with certain spending power can afford it. And Tesla as a scooter must have a fixed charging pile, so the owner who buys Tesla must have a fixed parking space. These are the necessary car maintenance costs for Tesla, and these costs are not affordable for ordinary consumers. So owning Tesla is also a status symbol.

Musk, the founder of Tesla, said: "Tesla, we don’t have any advertisements or celebrity endorsement fees. No, we don’t discount. If a celebrity comes to buy our car because they like it, it’s not that we give them a discount. Actually, I don’t like the concept of marketing. I think marketing is a very strange concept. I don’t like it. I think marketing seems to be about deceiving people to buy things. "

Tesla, which does not advertise, has attracted consumers all over the world. The sense of technology, speed and value has become the main driving force for consumers, and these are also places that other new car-making forces do not have or are difficult to surpass.

Someone joked that Tesla lost one car when he sold it. In fact, Tesla’s bicycle gross profit is still very high.

This misunderstanding may come from the wrong calculation method and the conclusion that the loss of each quarter is divided by the sales volume. Although there is nothing wrong with this calculation, it ignores some other investment factors, and does not take into account that Tesla has spent huge sums of money to build huge factories, expand sales stores and improve services and charging networks before Model 3 is on the road.

The rapid growth of the company’s losses is inevitable. No investors want to pay dividends when the company is still small. They want to maintain a tolerable loss and use all their funds to expand the scale.

So what is the profit of Tesla bicycles? Through Tesla’s quarterly report, you can find some data for reference. When the output of Model 3 is small, in other words, only Model S and Model X are calculated, the Non-GAPP gross profit of Tesla’s vehicle department is 25%, and the GAAP gross profit is 27.9%. When Model 3 started to load and it was well known that it was in trouble, Tesla’s gross profit dropped to 13.8% for non-GAAP and 18.3% for GAAP, and then rose to 18.8% for non-GAAP and 19.7% for GAAP.

Now, Tesla’s profits are mainly affected by two expenses, research and development and sales/management expenses. When the output comes up, the first cost will hardly increase. The second cost will increase with the increase of output to some extent, but it is not completely linear. The more impact on profits comes from the need to pay a large part of these expenses before the output comes up.

In short, in the next few years, these expenses will be covered by the gross profit of the automobile business, not to mention the photovoltaic and energy storage product lines that Tesla will start to increase in the second half of this year.

According to the latest financial report, Tesla’s global revenue growth in 2017 reached nearly 12 billion US dollars, with a growth rate of over 67%. Among them, the performance of China market is particularly outstanding, with a year-on-year increase of over 90% compared with 2016, making it the fastest growing market of Tesla in the world.

Some Tesla sales staff said in an interview that the awareness of new energy vehicles in China is constantly improving, and more and more car owners tend to choose models with strong sense of technology to show their attitude towards life. Tesla, with its high brand value and other advantages, is particularly strong in market acceptance and consumer support.

This is probably why Musk came to China as soon as he finished his "productivity hell". It turns out that China may be the place where Musk realized Tesla’s dream!

Cell Stem Cell: dopaminergic progenitor cells derived from human embryonic stem cells in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease

Original biological world

Written by Cong Wang

Edit Wang Duoyu

Typesetting and writing in water

Cell therapy is considered to be very suitable for treating Parkinson’s disease (PD) because its pathogenesis is relatively simple and characterized by localized degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra compacta of the midbrain. In animal experiments and human experiments, transplanting human fetal ventral midbrain tissue or cells has been proved to help restore motor function.

However, these results are often inconsistent, which highlights the need for improved cell therapy programs to ensure that a sufficient number of well-defined midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) neurons are produced and standardized cell preparation and transplantation procedures are adopted.

Recent technological progress has enabled human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC), such as embryonic stem cells (ESC) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), to efficiently generate mDA neurons, paving the way for establishing transplantation therapy for Parkinson’s disease based on hPSC. Many studies have shown that when transplanted into animal models of Parkinson’s disease, mDA progenitor cells derived from hPSC are well integrated into the host brain and mature into functional mDA neurons, which significantly improves motor function.

Recently, researchers from Yonsei University School of Medicine published a research paper entitled: preclinical and dose-ranging assessment of HESC-derived dopaminergic prognosticators for a clinical trial on Parkinson’s disease [1].

In this study, high-purity midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) progenitor cells were produced on a large scale from clinical human embryonic stem cells (hESC), and the safety and effectiveness of mDA progenitor cells were verified in vitro and in vivo. MDA progenitor cells improved the disease-related behavior of Parkinson’s disease rat model in a dose-dependent manner. Based on these preclinical research results, the research team obtained the approval of the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety for the phase 1/2a clinical trial of cell therapy for Parkinson’s disease, and started the treatment of 12 patients with Parkinson’s disease.

In May, 2020, researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital reported a groundbreaking study in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) [2]. A Parkinson’s patient who received autologous transplantation of mDA progenitor cells from hiPSC showed stable or improved clinical symptoms 24 months after implantation. Now, this method has been further developed, and the mDA progenitor cells derived from hiPSC and hESC began to enter the early clinical trial stage.

The first step in the clinical application of cell transplantation for Parkinson’s disease is to define the characteristics of cell products comprehensively. It is very important to determine whether cells are produced with clinical grade materials under GMP conditions and whether they meet the expected clinical use standards. Subsequently, preclinical research should produce convincing evidence of curative effect through large-scale animal experiments, and systematically examine long-term safety-related issues, such as toxicity, biological distribution and tumorigenicity. In addition, preclinical research needs to determine the optimal cell dose range for transplantation as a reference for human trials. Most importantly, the whole research design must be meticulous and the results must be evaluated in a fair way. This usually requires cooperation with CRO and extensive discussions with regulators.

This paper describes the process and results of a preclinical study aimed at using midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) neurons derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESC) in human clinical trials to treat Parkinson’s disease.

The cell differentiation method used in this study has been optimized for clinical application to ensure that it meets GMP standards. This optimization method can produce mDA progenitor cells with high purity and low temperature preservation on a large scale, while maintaining strict quality control. A year-long large-scale transplantation study by an independent CRO company using immunocompromised rats showed that the transplanted mDA neurons did not cause tumorigenicity, significant toxicity or ectopic integration outside the injection site. In addition, clinical mDA precursor cells showed therapeutic potential and dosage range, and produced therapeutic effects in toxin-induced semi-Parkinson’s rats. These findings provide the necessary information about the appropriate cell dose for human trials.

Specifically, this paper introduces the method of large-scale extraction of high-purity mDA progenitor cells from clinical grade hESC under strict GMP conditions, and also evaluates the toxicity, biological distribution and tumorigenicity of these cells in immunocompromised rats in facilities conforming to good laboratory practices (GLP). Different doses of mDA progenitor cells were transplanted into the semi-Parkinson’s rat model, and it was observed that there was a significant dose-dependent behavior improvement when the minimum effective dose ranged from 5000 to 10000 mDA progenitor cells. These results provide insights for determining the low cell dose (3.15 million cells) in human clinical trials.

Based on these experimental results, the research team obtained the phase 1/2a clinical trial of cell therapy for Parkinson’s disease approved by the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, and started the clinical trial of treating patients with Parkinson’s disease.

It all depends on it! The entry of durian from Thailand into China has been reduced from 20 days to 3-4 days.

China is an important fruit export market in Thailand. According to the data from the Ministry of Commerce of Thailand, in 2022, China was the largest export market of durian in Thailand, accounting for 96% of its total export volume, with an export value of US$ 3.09 billion. The export target of durian set by Thailand’s Ministry of Commerce this year is 100 billion baht (US$ 1 is about 34 baht). In the first two months alone, the sales volume in China has reached 35,000 tons, 2.4 times higher than the same period last year. Chalengchai, Minister of Agriculture and Cooperatives of Thailand, said: "Thanks to the China market, the planting area of durian and other fruits in Thailand has been expanding, the income of fruit farmers has been increasing, and more and more Thai fruits have entered the China market."

"With the China market, the fruit business in Thailand is particularly good"

In the evening, Thailand’s Cheuk Chuen suddenly became lively, and traffic jams began at the crossroads. Large container trucks and pickup trucks filled with durians lined up along Highway 3. "In eastern Thailand, the output of durian in Chien Chuen province is the largest, accounting for about 70% of the total. From April to June every year, the evening in Tsim Bamboo House is more lively than during the day. Durian is sensitive to temperature and needs to avoid light as much as possible. The acquisition, sorting, packing and filing of durian all start in the evening and last all night. " Banya, director of the Agriculture Bureau of Tsim Chuk Veng, said.

Eastern Thailand, including the provinces of Tsim Chuen, Luo Yong and Bazhen, is the most important fruit growing area in Thailand. Driving from Bangkok to the southeast, the roadside is green everywhere, and you can see large orchards from time to time. The Nengsong Market in Chien Chu is the largest durian market in Thailand, with thousands of durian stalls, large and small.

"This year’s business is particularly good." The owner, Aigeshan, has been running durian business here for more than 10 years, and has three shops. He said that in the near future, it can sell more than 10 tons a day at most, and both local wholesalers and merchants from China, Viet Nam and Cambodia come to purchase. At present, the wholesale price is 80-100 baht per kilogram. Aigeshan said: "China customers want AB-grade durian with good price and large sales volume, which is the best market for Thai fruit."

Dozens of workers are busy sorting, weighing, packing and loading durian in Tamai County, Jianzhu County. Several pickup trucks are lined up, and the workers in the trucks praise and guess to throw durian. The partners under the trucks skillfully catch it, tap the durian gently with a wooden stick to judge the maturity, and then blow off the dust and debris on the surface with a blowing pipe, and put it into different baskets according to the size. In the peak season, this factory can produce nearly 100 tons of durian in one night.

"’Sister You’ is my mother’s name, and three generations of our family are doing durian business. After I graduated from Bangkok University of Commerce majoring in computer science, I returned to my hometown to engage in durian industry. Now many descendants of fruit farmers choose to return home and use knowledge to develop orchards. With the China market, Thailand’s fruit business is particularly good. " Zhu Tatai, the owner of the factory, said that three months after the acquisition in the east, he would return to his hometown, Chunpeng House in the south, where durian ripened about three months later than in the east. His factory exports thousands of tons of durian to China every year.

At present, there are at least 700 durian sorting factories in Tsim Chuen Prefecture, which are dedicated to the China market. Ben Liang, a fruit grower, said: "China merchants are frank, sincere and have a pleasant cooperation. We are all looking forward to selling more Thai fruits to China. "

"China-Laos Railway special train makes our fruit transportation more convenient"

Since April, durian, mangosteen and other tropical fruits in Southeast Asia have been on the market in large quantities. Every day, a fruit train enters China through China-Laos Railway and is sent to Kunming, Chengdu, Guangzhou and other major cities. Since the beginning of this year, as of April 28th, China-Laos Railway has transported 11,000 tons of mangosteen, durian and other fruits.

In the "Youjie" durian picking and packing factory, generally about 4 kilograms of durians, 5-6 can be packed into a box, each sea container can hold about 1008 boxes, and a factory can hold 5 containers and about 30,000 durians every night. The next day, the truck set out for Lianchabang Port by sea, or sailed to the border of Laos and Vietnam and entered China. At present, Thai fruits are exported to China market by three ways, including 51% by sea, 48% by land and 0.54% by air. The opening of China-Laos Railway has brought new opportunities for Thai fruits to be exported to China.

"In the past, durian was mainly transported to China by road and sea, which was greatly influenced by uncertain factors such as weather, and sometimes the transportation time was as long as 20 days. After the opening of China-Laos Railway, durian will arrive in Kunming in 3-4 days from Thailand, so we can export durian with higher maturity and better taste. The China-Laos Railway special train makes our fruit transportation more convenient. " Aaron Gong, adviser to the Minister of Agriculture and Cooperatives of Thailand, said.

Yang Tai Group has been engaged in Thailand’s fruit import and export trade for more than 20 years. The company exports tens of thousands of tons of fruit to China every year, most of which are sold to wholesale markets in Beijing and Guangzhou. Yang Ju, president of the company, said: "China-Laos Railway has short transportation time and high stability. Railway transportation not only ensures the quality of durian but also reduces operating costs."

According to reports, durian can be transported from Thailand to Chongqing in 4-5 days and Guangzhou in 5-6 days after being transported by China-Laos Railway. "China-Laos Railway’s transportation and customs clearance are very fast. The first batch of fruits took only five days from the Thai factory to the Guangdong, China market." The relevant person in charge of Thailand PAS Company, which is engaged in the transportation and export of durian and mangosteen to China, said that the opening of durian train will open up a new road for the export of durian in Thailand, and this year’s goal is to export 700-1,000 containers of various Thai products through this route.

"The income of Thai fruit farmers, buyers and exporters continues to increase"

From time to time, reporters saw the giant billboard of "Building the Fruit Capital of the World" on the streets of Tsim Chuen House. In 2018, Thailand approved the strategic plan for fruit development and set the goal of building Thailand into a major tropical fruit trading country in the world.

In recent years, the Thai government has strengthened the management and support of the fruit industry, including inspecting plantations, helping enterprises and farmers distribute fruits, and improving the mobility of exporters. Thailand’s Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives often organize farmers, purchasers, exporters, logistics and transportation service providers, foreign business representatives and commercial bureaus in fruit-rich areas to discuss how to strengthen fruit management, and formulate a number of measures, including speeding up inspection and certification, helping enterprises or farmers to export fruits as agents, and helping exporters solve working capital.

On April 19th, Thai durian arrived in Kunming through China-Laos Railway.

In this year’s fruit sales management, Thailand has set up a working group composed of government departments and the private sector to promote Thailand’s fruit export, which is responsible for supervising the production and marketing situation and coordinating and solving the fruit export problems. The Director of the Department of Agriculture of the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives of Thailand, Mr. Sapipa, said that the Department of Agriculture requires all departments to follow all steps from the source to the downstream. The source is the orchard, the middle reaches is the packaging factory, and the downstream is the inspection and quarantine gates of various plants. All departments must cooperate with each other to jointly maintain and improve the quality and standards of durian and other fruits in Thailand.

Banya said: "Quality is the most critical. In all aspects of planting, cultivation, picking and transportation, the government management department and the private sector cooperate to strictly control all fruit orchards to ensure the quality of Thai fruits."

The Ministry of Commerce of Thailand predicts that 70% of Thailand’s fruit production will be exported to the international market this year, with China as the largest export destination. Yin Mengshi, the government of Chien Chuen, said: "The strong demand in China market has promoted the development of durian industry in Thailand, and the income of Thai fruit farmers, buyers and exporters has continued to increase."

Zhu Lin, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Commerce of Thailand, expressed the hope to further increase fruit exports to the China market this year. "China is an important trading partner of Thailand, especially in the fields of agricultural products and fruits. With the support of China, Thai fruits can go to the world faster and help build Thailand into a world tropical fruit trading country. "
