The light of human nature penetrates the screen "Together" and "fire" is justified.

Leading the National Day screen, Douban scored 8.8, which was praised as "the most crying TV series" by the audience … During the National Day, the era report drama Together, which showed the anti-epidemic course of China in 2020, triggered a hot discussion on the whole network. This 20-episode TV series, organized and directed by the State Administration of Radio and Television and produced by Shanghai Radio and Television, Yaoke Media and Shanghai Shangshi Film, was broadcast in the prime time of Oriental TV, Zhejiang TV, Jiangsu TV, Guangdong TV, Hunan TV and Beijing TV on September 29th, reappearing the long-lost grand occasion of "one drama with four stars".

Recently, Sun Hao, vice president of Yaoke Media and producer of Together, was interviewed by Variety Daily, and shared many behind-the-scenes stories and experience in creating TV dramas in clusters.

Off-season shooting

An arduous creative test

From the establishment of the main creative team in February 2020 to the scheduled broadcast on the eve of the National Day, the "Together" team showed the society the rapid response ability of the TV drama production industry. In March, the screenwriter went deep into the front line to collect the wind; In April, the first story began shooting; May-June, concentrated shooting; In August, the whole drama was finished.

Sun Hao introduced that "Together" faced many difficulties from the beginning of the project. In addition to the tight shooting time, the crew also needs to deal with the test of off-season shooting. When it was turned on in April, from south to north, the cities in China entered the spring one after another, and the temperature gradually increased, so it was impossible to restore the winter appearance at the beginning of this year in each location, not to mention the Wuhan winter scene, which occupied a large part in the whole play.

The crew used many methods to restore the natural scene. For example, in the scene of Jerry on the bridge in Wuhan People, in order to reproduce the cold and humid scene in Wuhan, the creative staff covered the railings with snow and sprinkled a lot of water on the ground, trying to restore the real situation from the nuances. Off-season shooting has also had a certain impact on actors’ performances. In the "Mask" unit, the scene of Hai Qing and Jianfeng Bao at the seaside, they are wearing down jackets and coats, but the clothes inside them are actually soaked with sweat. The scene of William Feng bowing at the roadside was filmed in Ningbo, when the local temperature was over 20℃. "It is a test for actors to perform in winter clothes or even protective clothing." Sun Hao said.

The realistic pressure of epidemic prevention and control is also one of the difficult problems that the crew needs to face. "Search: 24 hours" mainly reflects the epidemiological investigation process during the epidemic, and the location is in Beijing. Soon after the filming of this chapter, it encountered a new epidemic situation, and the tightening of national prevention and control management directly affected the follow-up filming. Ensuring the health and safety of the crew and the main creator has become the primary task of the crew outside shooting.

Multi-party cooperation

Accumulate collective creative experience

As one of the few collective creative works in the industry, the shooting and production of Together is regarded as a bold attempt, and the unit narrative mode draws lessons from the successful example of the film My People,My Country. The volume of 20 episodes, one story every two episodes, is even regarded by some viewers as a film work in the form of TV series.

Sun Hao said that how to use the volume of 20 episodes to show many human brilliance in the process of fighting the epidemic is another difficult problem facing the team. In order to make the series have a broader coverage, the creative team consciously collected a large number of news reports during the anti-epidemic period at the early stage of planning, looking for stories of prototype characters, trying to establish a specific relationship between prototype characters as much as possible, and covering all aspects of fighting the epidemic. "The drama not only tells the story of the medical field, but also includes many groups involved in the fight against the epidemic, such as disease control, social workers, public security, and the army. I hope that through ten stories, it will cover all the fields involved in the fight against the epidemic and make the content more substantial."

The collective creation form of Together has accumulated rich experience for the creation of similar themes in the future. Sun Hao believes that "Together" can trigger a heated discussion among the audience, which is inseparable from the depth and breadth of the theme itself. The COVID-19 epidemic is the biggest public event in 2020. With the concern of the whole people and the advantages of theme, it can not only attract a large number of audiences, but also bring many creative people together in this project, thus promoting the collective action of the industry.

In addition, the support of the competent authorities and cooperative units ensured the smooth progress of the filming. "The State Administration of Radio and Television and Shanghai Radio and Television have carried out a lot of coordination work from the beginning of the project, so that the existing creative clubs can get together to create. The directors of many units are also participating in other major theme projects of the General Administration. Without their coordination, it is difficult for us to adjust the schedules of so many creators together. "

Dialogue producer Sun Hao: Unit drama will become a creative trend.

Variety Daily: How to determine the broadcast order of each unit of the play?

Sun Hao:The narrative of the whole play is carried out according to the timeline of the epidemic. The first unit "The Turning Point of Life" is the starting point of the story. The time background of the story is from the end of 2019 to the beginning of 2020. The second unit "The Ferry Man" takes place before the Spring Festival, and so on. But we made some fine-tuning later. The last unit of the original plan ended with the resumption of work and production shown in "Mask". In order to pay tribute to the people of Wuhan, the unit of "Wuhan People" was finally put at the end.

Variety Daily: In the future, will unit drama become the mainstream creative form of works with major time-sensitive themes?

Sun Hao:Unit drama will be a trend. On the one hand, major topics need to be combined with a large number of realistic contents, and stories and characters need to be presented quickly, and the creative mode of unit drama is more in line with this requirement; On the other hand, the General Administration has been advocating the creative direction of "small and big", and it will be the future trend to concise stories and characters in a small space and present more creative forms.

Variety: From the producer’s point of view, what is the difference between Together and your previous dramas?

Sun Hao:You can use the word "both" to describe it. To make a long play of a script, the producer only needs to devote himself to the story. However, "Together" has different teams, and the story style and temperament of each unit are different. As a producer, I should take into account both the original intention of creation and the creative intention of the director to protect the creative space of the main creation as much as possible. In addition, the requirements of the competent authorities and broadcasting platforms should also be considered.

Variety Daily: Does Together have an overseas broadcast plan?

Sun Hao:"Together" is broadcast simultaneously on TVB TV station in Hong Kong, China, and there are also broadcast plans on TV stations in Southeast Asia. At present, "Together" is still being promoted on the overseas YouTube channel of Yaoke Media. As of October 10th, the number of video hits has exceeded 3 million. In addition, Yaoke Media continues to promote the distribution of Disney and HBO Red.

JD.COM 618: Be a user’s "AI product popularizer" and create a new experience of smart life.

In the past year, AI has quietly entered our lives, covering all aspects. With the rapid development of technology, how does AI turn into tangible productivity through a product? This answer can be clearly seen from the application of AI products by ordinary people and the trend reflected in the sales positions represented by JD.COM.

The "secret weapon" to improve efficiency in the workplace

"I am now in the office ‘ Grass planting machine ’ Many colleagues came to me for the link of "office artifact". "

The "office artifact" in Han Jing’s mouth refers to a Iflytek AI mouse that was bought most from JD.COM. This mouse has a built-in AI model. After matching with the corresponding software on the computer side, this AI mouse can provide support for marketing copy, weekly report polishing or PPT generation. Han Jing, who is keen on trying new 3C digital products, made a decisive start as soon as this mouse went on the market.

In previous meetings, Han Jing had to record with a voice recorder, and when the meeting was over, she had to connect the voice recorder with a computer to export the recording, and then convert the voice to text through software. After some tossing, she had to read the document again to extract key information and organize it into meeting minutes. However, this AI mouse can even be directly used as a voice recorder. With the computer-side software, it can directly generate text and quickly generate content according to the demand instructions. The whole process is simple and efficient. Now, less than a few minutes after the meeting, Han Jing can synchronize the minutes of the meeting with the relevant personnel, instead of spending half a day as before.

Behind the efficiency revolution, Han Jing is not a case. The AI power that falls on the ground can really help consumers improve their productivity and is also welcomed by consumers. According to IDC’s latest data, AI hardware in the market is booming this year, and the proportion of AI mobile phone shipments to the total mobile phone shipments will reach 13.2%, and this figure will reach 54.1% by 2028, and with the downward price and the increase of usage scenarios, consumers’ acceptance of AI mobile phones will be higher and higher; In terms of AIPC, AIPC shipments accounted for 10% of the overall PC market in the first quarter of this year, and it is estimated that by 2027, the proportion of AI notebooks in notebook shipments will exceed 80%. It can be seen that the vitality of the AI ​ ​ hardware market has emerged, and it has shown great growth potential with the help of consumption.

Let "true AI" accelerate its popularization

Everything can be asked about AI, which reflects the change of consumers’ expectations for generative AI products. The more perfect the functions of AI products, the more efficient and better experience they can bring to consumers. However, in the face of a dazzling array of products with AI as the selling point on the market, consumers are actually somewhat dazzled.

Faced with the complicated AI hardware in the market, how should consumers choose their favorite products? In March this year, JD.COM cooperated with 3C digital brands to accurately grasp the development trend of AI, made efforts in the field of AI, and accelerated the implementation of the "AI Accelerated Revitalization Plan" to accelerate the popularization and application of AI hardware in personal and family scenes, so as to provide users with more intelligent, efficient and convenient digital life experiences.

Through the experience accumulation of "AI Accelerated Revitalization Plan" and accurate insight into consumer demand, JD.COM officially released 12 AI categories including AI computers, AI mobile phones, AI headsets, AI cameras, AI learning computers, AI keyboards and mice, AI watches, AI routers, AI glasses, AI door locks, AI cameras and AI speakers during the period of 618 this year. And JD.COM’s measures to continuously promote the popularization of trend categories also give consumers a clear distinction and cognition of AI hardware categories.

Han Jing once spent a lot of time and money in distinguishing whether the product is "true AI". In her view, whether it is to simplify operations, personalize services or intelligent decision support, AI products are ultimately designed to upgrade the user’s experience, but the AI technology of some products is just a marketing gimmick, which is really useless, and the answer results are often disappointing. Let consumers know at a glance which are AI hardware and what AI functions AI hardware has.

In the process of realizing "two-way trip" between products and consumers, we can’t do without the help of channels like JD.COM.

AI provides new possibilities for life.

The development of technology is ultimately to serve people. Nowadays, AI technology has widely entered the consumer field, unlocking more possibilities of life.

In order to meet the new demand of consumers for smart life, this year JD.COM 618 also announced the goal of "618 AI benefiting millions of users", which is expected to promote over 3 million users to change their AI products during the 618 period, help them to easily switch from traditional products to AI products, and let more people enjoy a more efficient and convenient smart life.

At the same time, in order to meet the diversified needs of consumers, JD.COM has joined more 3C digital brands to build an AI full-scene ecological path by implementing the "AIGC Mango Plan" and building a shopping guide position "AI Equipment Pavilion", so that users can experience the charm of AI in JD.COM in one stop. In addition to focusing on displaying more high-quality AI hardware products, the "AI Equipment Hall" also embeds rich short video content, showing the practical application of AI products around users’ real use scenarios, breaking down the barriers between users and AI, and allowing them to enjoy shopping fun. At the same time, they can more intuitively experience the new lifestyle brought by AI hardware products.

On the service level, JD.COM has launched a series of preferential policies and a comprehensive upgrade of service experience, which has lowered the threshold for users to purchase AI products by adding pounds of trade-in subsidies and free trial rights of some AI products.

Wang Jian is the beneficiary of these services. In June 18th this year, he plans to buy an AI learning machine for his son in the third grade of primary school in JD.COM. "The most important thing is the individualized teaching counseling function of learning machine. I heard that AI can formulate counseling programs according to children’s academic characteristics and needs, so that children can check for gaps and traps, and also alleviate our parents’ counseling anxiety. " However, in the face of various brands and models of learning machine products, Wang Jian bluntly made a "choice difficulty." However, JD.COM’s free trial rights allow Wang Jian to place an order for his favorite learning machine with confidence, and then choose a product suitable for his son’s learning situation after use.

As a channel for consumers to buy 3C digital products, JD.COM has enabled more consumers who are interested in trendy 3C digital products like Han Jing and Wang Jian to enjoy the more possibilities that AI products bring to their lives this year. "In the past, we dreamed that one day we could communicate with intelligent machines and let them assist our work and facilitate our lives. Now this dream has become a reality. "

In order to enable consumers to buy their favorite AI products with good quality and good price, and better start a smart and beautiful new life, during the period of 618, JD.COM also provided full and reduced preferential policies, trade-in subsidies, 30-day price guarantee and free trial rights of products, so that more users can enjoy AI first.

Bravely unlocking more possibilities, has your life changed because of AI hardware?

 

"Blackout": the champion of the whole network! Not the kui is the most ruthless action movie.


Special feature of 1905 film network In recent years, although action movies have been criticized as "green and yellow", they have attracted enough attention in the early stage of each release, and often the market will give a lot of surprise feedback.


This year’s 51 ST gear counterattack has become an annual explosion. Even the summer movies are expected to break through the 300 million mark. Although it is not a big explosion, it can be said to be a little dark horse in the schedule.


The surprise of the two films is that some familiar actors have more opportunities to stand in front of the audience as the leading role and let everyone see them.


This phenomenon is particularly obvious in the online movie market. More and more action actors let the audience see their changes, and at the same time, action movies also have the opportunity to glow with different vitality in online movies.


For example, in recent years, he once again entered the audience’s field of vision with two series of IP, and he became famous young. Now he has successfully transformed and gained more market attention and recognition.



Only with attention will there be new opportunities. Iqiyi also paid attention to the high feedback from users of action movies on this platform, and launched a brand-new movie brand "Action Master Season" at the beginning of the year. Among them, the first season brought four works: Arresting Evil and Stopping Horses to Grab Knives.



These four works emphasize the "chivalry" at the core of China’s action movies. In the second season, they continued to focus on the diversified expression and innovation of action types, and launched three works, namely, Fighting Black, Seeing the Sun Again and Fighting to the Death, focusing on modern crimes and showing the life contest between the police and robbers.



In particular, the newly-launched movie "Fighting Black", produced by the action director of "Impersonal 2" and the director of "Northeast never to lose" series, vividly presents the danger and fierceness in the process of eliminating black and evil.


Once launched, "Sweeping the Black" won the first place in the new film list of major platforms on the first day, and won the popularity of the whole network. As of August 27, the box office revenue of the whole network exceeded 10 million. The film has made Aiqiyi’s "action master season" more intense, and the watch continues to "explode". As the finale of the second season of "Action Master Season", "Fighting Black" has made a new dimension definition for this brand.



01. "Fighting Black" is fierce enough.


If you use one word to describe the movie "Blacking out", it is "fierce"!


As the title of the film shows, the story is the theme of eliminating evils and takes place in Northeast China. From the whole world view, Fighting Black is similar to Pengfei Qin’s another Violence Control, both of which are derivative works of Northeast never to lose.


The story begins with a vicious violent demolition case. Not long after the opening, a fierce battle appeared.



It’s just that there is black behind the evil, and the story doesn’t hide too much suspense, so it directly presents the black hand behind the scenes to everyone — — Wei Tianlang (Bao Beier), the richest local man.


If Wei Tianming is vicious, the performance here is not enough. The director used a more direct confrontation to make him go mad. Through several simple scenes, the film shows the audience a cruel and fierce villain image from indirect to direct.



Lei Yang (played by Ashton Chen), as a criminal policeman assigned to investigate Wei Tianlang’s involvement in the underworld, was soon dismissed by the other side — — The address was leaked and the bed was covered with money. This sets the stage for many oppositions. After all, if Leiyang’s address is not leaked by the mole, how will the other party know?


Leiyang was not deterred by this. He not only challenged Wei Tianlang head-on, but also followed the lead and found a series of evidences, as well as other people in the bureau, especially Cheng Lin (Shanshan Qu), the proprietress of the ballroom.



In this process, the director met with Wei Tianlang twice, once Leiyang went to the door directly, and once he just arrived at the ballroom, and behind the mirror was Wei Tianlang hiding in the secret room. A confrontation in which I am in the light and the enemy is in the dark is permeated with the evil factor of horror and fierceness, which is chilling.


The premise of the story is here, in fact, it makes the title of the film more concrete. Why should we use "beating" instead of just "sweeping" in this crackdown?



As the creator of many explosive online movies, director Pengfei Qin knows well the narrative rhythm and plot of online movies and how to catch people. Start with the most direct content, and constantly strengthen the evil side of the villain. At the same time, when the villains are bad and bad to the extreme, the difficulties and dangers of this action emerge, and the decent fortitude becomes more three-dimensional.


The most important thing is that the whole film maintains a fast-paced narrative mode, and there is no literary drama. At the same time, it uses one realistic fight after another to push the plot to the climax of wave after wave and detonate the hormones of the audience.



02. Real Kung Fu


The "fierceness" of "Fighting Black" is far more than the plot design, but also the action and the "fighting".


Ashton Chen, who comes from a martial arts family, has a solid foundation in martial arts. In the past, shaolin popey series movies and Young Bao Qingtian series became childhood memories of many people.


When he grew up, he played a lot of roles, but this is the first time to play the people’s police. The image of a tough guy is not only reflected in the shape of Yinglang, but also in action and drama, which is very fierce.



What is most worth mentioning is the fierce fighting between Leiyang and the elevator.


In this scene, the one-on-two fight not only fully demonstrates the director’s scheduling ability, but also requires more actors in the extreme space. But it gave Ashton Chen a chance to show his posture perfectly.



Under the constantly scheduled lens, if the action is not real enough, the one-stroke pose will be exposed very obviously. However, in front of Ashton Chen, it is not a problem naturally. The fist and fist go hand in hand, and the skillful use of strength and inch strength is very in place. From the ornamental point of view, it is very enjoyable.


The director knows how to shape his image very well. When the elevator door is finally opened and the camera is shot from bottom to top, the sense of power of "Elevator God of War" comes directly. The whole scene is quite elegant in the name of the elevator, which depicts the ingenuity of action design very much.



In addition to this scene, Lei Yang’s fight on the rooftop and the fight between Wei Tianlang and the fishing ground at the end will carry on the "real fight", which perfectly embodies the infinite possibilities of this movie star in the field of action movies.


I have to mention the director Pengfei Qin.


Previously, his work "Northeast never to lose" was popular, to a great extent, he played the style of hard-core action movies, and incorporated realistic action drama styles such as close combat, traditional wrestling and judo into the whole play. This time, in "Fighting Black", the action drama draws lessons from the advantages of different venues, and realizes the perfect combination of spatial characteristics and movements.



Although the villain Bao Beier was not born as a star, he also contributed a lot of famous scenes in "Fighting Black" — — Not only is it brutal, but it is also "decompression" in being beaten. Especially in the final play, the two were evenly matched, never losing the battle, and were not suppressed by Ashton Chen at all, which pushed the whole movie to a climax.



03. Where is the "high" of the action master season?


Both Ashton Chen’s real performance and director Pengfei Qin’s arrangement in action drama perfectly fit the concept of "action master" in the brand name of "action master season" of iQiyi.


From the martial arts style in the first season to the diversified expression of action types in the second season, we can see both continuity and fresh blood.



Especially in the creative aspect, "Blacking out" is a new work by Pengfei Qin, director of "Arrogant 2"; The director of "Fighting Evil" returned strongly with "Seeing the Light of Day Again". In terms of action actors, in the first season, there were two stars from Xie Miao. In the new season, besides Ashton Chen, there were also stars from other countries, such as Japan, Japan and South Korea.



For action movies, the core is not only the "real stars" including these creative people, but also the "real kung fu" in essence. The "action master season" just strengthens this concept, takes it as the key point, and makes it more diversified, from the audience to the audience.


The origin of the brand "action master season" is based on the platform’s insight into users’ consumption. Judging from the portraits of users, male users have contributed more than 60% of the playing time to the iQiyi movie business, and they have a certain preference for action movies. Judging from the paid subscription performance of movie users in Cloud Cinema in 2023, the subscription number of action movies accounts for 91% of all movies.



However, the "action master season" is not just a simple and rude action movie, but a continuous self-innovation.


In terms of genre, from the origin of martial arts movies in the first season to the creation of pan-genre in the second season, especially "Seeing the Sun Again" combines comedy elements, which makes action movies have more possibilities, truly pursues a sense of breathing in inheritance, and creates stories that the current audience really likes and caters to the times.



Now, the popularity of "Blacking out" has drawn a perfect ending for the second season, but is it over?


No one knows, just like at the premiere of "Fighting Black", director Pengfei Qin said that maybe one day the team of "Fighting Black" and "Northeast never to lose" could be linked. Perhaps this sentence has laid more groundwork for the follow-up of iQiyi’s "Action Master Season".


Major banks take the lead in opening a new round of deposit "interest rate reduction"

◎ Reporter Zhang Jones Chang Peiqi

A new round of deposit "interest rate cut" opened. On May 20th, major banks such as Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Agricultural Bank, Bank of China, China Construction Bank, Bank of Communications, Postal Savings Bank, China Merchants Bank and China Everbright Bank announced that they would lower their deposit interest rates.

Take China Construction Bank as an example. In terms of demand deposits, the interest rate is lowered by 5 basis points to 0.05%. In terms of time deposits, the interest rates of lump-sum deposit and withdrawal for three months, six months, one year and two years were all lowered by 15 basis points, to 0.65%, 0.85%, 0.95% and 1.05% respectively; The 3-year and 5-year interest rates were lowered by 25 basis points to 1.25% and 1.3% respectively.

In the opinion of analysts, this round of deposit interest rate reduction is large, which will play multiple roles. Ceng Gang, chief expert and director of the Shanghai Finance and Development Laboratory, said that for banks, lowering the deposit interest rate can reduce the cost of capital and increase the net interest margin, thereby enhancing profitability and capital accumulation capacity and providing space for subsequent expansion of credit supply; For the real economy, the decline in deposit interest rate will be further transmitted to the loan interest rate, which will help reduce the financing costs of enterprises and residents and help stabilize growth; The flow of funds to entities and capital markets will help to better support innovation, entrepreneurship and industrial upgrading.

This round of deposit "interest rate cut" will reduce the cost of bank debt. Wen Bin, chief economist of China Minsheng Bank, said that this is the seventh round of deposit listing interest rate reduction led by state-owned banks and stock banks. The reduction of deposit interest rate is greater than the decrease of loan market quoted interest rate (LPR) on the same day, which helps to reduce the debt cost of banks.

"The decline in the loan interest rate will further increase the downward pressure on the bank’s net interest margin and reduce the debt cost. Deposits are an important source of liabilities for banks, so it is necessary to lower the deposit interest rate to stabilize the bank’s net interest margin and improve the sustainability of banks’ services to the real economy. " Lou Feipeng, a researcher at the Postal Savings Bank, said.

As an important indicator to measure the profitability of banks, the net interest margin has continued to decline in recent years. According to the data of the General Administration of Financial Supervision, in the first quarter of 2025, the net interest margin of commercial banks was 1.43%, which was 0.09 percentage points lower than that in the fourth quarter of 2024, hitting a new low.

Wang Qing, chief macro analyst of Oriental Jincheng, said that after the major banks cut the deposit interest rate and led other banks to follow up the adjustment, the overall deposit interest rate will be lowered by 0.11 to 0.13 percentage points, which can basically cover the impact of the LPR reduction on the bank’s asset-side income, thus stabilizing the bank’s net interest margin.

"This LPR reduction and deposit interest rate reduction, the reduction of debt cost is higher than the reduction of return on assets, which is rare. This is also the largest reduction in deposit interest rates in recent years. On the whole, the impact on banks is positive. " Lin Yingqi, deputy general manager of the research department of CICC and banking analyst, said.

The reduction of deposit interest rate will also have an impact on residents’ assets. Dong Ximiao, chief researcher of Zhaolian, said that with the lower deposit interest rate and the improvement of residents’ expectations, the attractiveness of the capital market and wealth management market will be further enhanced, which will help promote the healthy and sustainable development of the capital market and wealth management market. If investors want to pursue steady income, they can appropriately allocate cash management wealth management products, money funds, national debt and so on.

Talking about the follow-up rhythm of deposit "interest rate reduction", Ceng Gang said that under normal circumstances, large state-owned banks often take the lead in adjusting deposit interest rates because of their stable debts and strong customer base, setting an "anchor" for the market and leading the adjustment of the industry. Subsequently, small and medium-sized banks followed suit to maintain interest margins and refer to market competition.

Overbearing "Rules" and Hegemonic "Order" —— The so-called "Rule-based International Order" in the United States

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, May 7th(International observation) Overbearing "rules" and hegemonic "order" — — Starting from the so-called "rules-based international order" in the United States

  Xinhua News Agency reporter Zhu Ruiqing Ding Yi

  "We often hear a saying called ‘ Rule-based international order ’ . This is an ambiguous statement, which is not in the Charter of the United Nations, nor in the declarations adopted by world leaders at the United Nations, nor in the resolutions of the General Assembly and the Security Council. We’ve always wanted to ask, the so-called ‘ Rule-based international order ’ What kind of rules are based on, who made the rules, and what is the relationship between these rules and the international order? " At the beginning of this year, Zhang Jun, Permanent Representative of China to the United Nations, made this question at an open debate of the United Nations Security Council.

  Some politicians in the United States now keep their mouths shut about the "rules-based international order", but they have never explained the above key issues to the world. This is not because they are "careless", but because they are intentional: they don’t want to define it clearly, and they don’t want to explain it clearly, because that will prevent them from labeling other countries at will, because they often play with "double standards" themselves, because the truth will puncture their hypocrisy.

  Even if the United States does not say it, the world knows that the so-called "rules" in the mouth of the United States are its uncompromising hegemonic rules; The so-called "order" is the hegemonic order of "America first".

  Looking for a statement: put on a legal coat for your illegal behavior

  The phrase "rules-based international order" is not new. Paul Post, a scholar at the University of Chicago in the United States, said that this expression began to appear in the 1990s, and it was increasingly used by the US government after the US invaded Iraq in 2003, with the purpose of finding excuses for its violation of the UN Charter and international law.

  After the end of the Cold War, the United States became the only superpower and gained the status of dominating the world. In order to get rid of the constraints of the United Nations system and international law, Americans concocted the phrase "rules-based international order" to beautify packaging hegemonism. The Iraq war is a typical example — — The United States has not been authorized by the United Nations Security Council, and its military operations division is unknown, even France, Germany and other allies strongly oppose it.

  Stephen Walter, a professor of international relations at Harvard University in the United States, said that being able to use the term "rules-based international order" at any time seems to have become a job requirement for American politicians or officials.

  Alexander gusev, director of the Russian Institute of Strategic Planning and Forecasting, pointed out in an interview with Xinhua News Agency that the United States deliberately keeps the definition of "rules-based international order" vague, because the less specific these so-called "rules" are, the more it can "dress up" them at will. Once a country violates the will of the United States, the United States can accuse it of "violating the rules" and there is reason to punish it.

  According to Mohammad Jebouri, a journalism professor at Iraqi University, these so-called "rules" are embodied in action: politically, the United States pursues power politics and forces other countries to obey; Economically, the United States uses dollar hegemony and control over international organizations such as the International Monetary Fund to control the economic lifeline of other countries; In terms of security, the United States has set up a large number of military bases around the world and also monitored countries including allies; In science and technology, the United States monopolizes the core technology, obstructs other countries’ research and development by any means, and ensures its leading position; Ideologically, the United States advocates western values as "universal values" and forcibly instills them in non-western countries.

  In the final analysis, in the eyes of the United States, obeying its demands and its will is "obeying the rules", otherwise it is "breaking the rules." In the words of Italian international expert Giancalo Elia Valori: "‘ Rule-based international order ’ It is actually another version of power politics. "

  Double standards: "you must abide by international law unless you are the United States."

  In the early morning of April 14, 2018, the fire tore the night sky in Damascus, the capital of Syria. The reason why the United States, Britain and France launched this air strike against Syria is that the Syrian government used "chemical weapons" to attack the armed opposition-controlled areas.

  Bashar al-Jaafari, then Syria’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, complained to the United States and other countries for slandering the Syrian government more than once at the United Nations meeting, but the United States turned a deaf ear to this and continued to impose sanctions and military strikes on Syria. Once, a photo of Jaafari sitting in the rest area of the United Nations Headquarters building was widely circulated on the Internet: he was tall and in a suit and tie, with his head down, his back slightly bent, his hands clasped, and his figure showed fatigue. Outside the window beside him, the "Peace Bell" hangs in a pavilion downstairs.

  International public opinion feels the sadness and helplessness of "weak diplomats" from this photo. On the other hand, the experience in Syria highlights the contempt of the United States and its allies for international law.

  After Syria fell into the civil war, the United States deeply intervened and frequently intervened militarily. Its military actions were not authorized by the UN Security Council, nor were they approved by the Syrian government. American scholar Margo Patterson said that on the issue of war, the United States has always shown that international law only applies to other countries, not to the United States itself.

  As we all know, there is only one order in the world, that is, the international order based on international law; There is only one set of rules, that is, the basic norms of international relations based on the purposes and principles of the UN Charter. The United States advocates the so-called "rules-based international order", and its real intention is to set up another set outside the existing international law system. When international law conforms to the interests of the United States, it emphasizes the need to abide by international law, and vice versa, it does not talk about international law, but emphasizes the so-called "rule-based international order." In essence, what he has done is to take self-interest as the center, impose his own standards and will on others, and open the back door for "double standards" and "exceptionalism".

  Wei Nanzhi, a researcher at the American Institute of China Academy of Social Sciences, pointed out that after World War II, a global political, security, financial, trade and cultural order was established based on the United Nations, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (the predecessor of the World Trade Organization) and UNESCO. However, the United States has always used the international system with the United Nations as the core and the international order based on international law, and rejected them if they disagree.

  In the political and security fields, the United States has despised the concepts of self-determination, sovereignty and peaceful settlement of disputes established by the UN Charter. Since the end of World War II, it has been waging wars or instigating a "color revolution", trying to overthrow more than 50 foreign governments and rudely interfering in democratic elections in at least 30 countries. In the economic and trade field, the United States frequently launched trade wars against other countries. The WTO clearly determined that the United States violated global trade rules against China and tariff war, but the United States ignored it and blocked the WTO Appellate Body from appointing new judges. In the financial field, the United States not only takes advantage of the dollar’s status as the main international reserve currency to collect "seigniorage" from the world, but also manipulates international financial organizations, asking recipient countries to implement financial liberalization and increase the opening of financial markets when assisting other countries, so as to reduce obstacles for American capital penetration and speculation; In the field of science and technology, the United States often packages its own "family rules" into international rules, such as the introduction of the Chip and Science Act and other bills to curb the scientific and technological development of other countries through long-arm jurisdiction.

  Stephen Walter, a professor of international relations at Harvard University, once wrote on the website of Foreign Policy that when the United States thinks that the international order is not conducive to itself, it ignores, evades or changes the order according to its own wishes. Even American allies hope that the United States can abide by the order it advocates.

  "You must abide by international law unless you are the United States." American historian Alfred mccoy said so.

  Hegemonic decline: "‘ Rule-based international order ’ Are dying. "

  In recent years, with the mass rise of developing countries, the relative strength and international influence of the United States and the West have continued to decline. In this context, the United States increasingly emphasizes the so-called "rules-based international order", aiming at maintaining its declining hegemony and hindering the evolution of the international pattern and the trend of world multipolarization.

  In order to embody the so-called "values", the United States manipulated ideological tools, clothed the "rules-based international order" with "freedom" and "democracy", and demonized the "competitors" in the eyes of the United States as "authoritarian countries" that undermined "freedom" and "democracy", but such tricks could not blind the world.

  Yu Jie, a senior researcher at the Royal Institute of International Affairs, believes that the "rules-based international order" implies that all countries in the world should implement the western democratic model. But this political system itself has a big problem. Over the past decade or so, developing countries have been more actively demanding to improve their right to speak on issues of international rules and international order. This appeal will be stronger in the future.

  Yuan Sha, an American scholar at the China Institute of International Studies, pointed out that in recent years, the anxiety of the United States about the decline of its hegemony has risen sharply, so it wants to use the rhetoric of "rules-based international order" to contain and suppress non-Western countries such as China. Especially after Biden’s administration took office, it actively wooed allies and partners to build a small circle, established an exclusive and factional pseudo-multilateral system, and replaced the international rules under the United Nations system with "family rules", which hindered the construction of an inclusive and open international order.

  The international community really needs rules and order, but they should be jointly formulated by the international community, rather than the one with thick arms and great strength who has the final say, let alone serving the interests of a few countries and minorities.

  "The so-called ‘ Rule-based international order ’ Actually, it is unfair ‘ Western order ’ 。” Former French ambassador to the United States Gé rard Arrow said.

  “‘ Rule-based international order ’ Is dying. " Andrew latham, a professor of international relations at Macalester College in the United States, said that some people have not yet recognized this reality.

  In the final analysis, the "rules-based international order" that some American politicians talk about every day is just a high-sounding rhetoric. Its true meaning is, on the one hand, to "maintain hegemony" and try to continue its bossy and superior "exceptional" status, and on the other hand, to "escape from reality" and try to cover up its resistance to the rise of the non-western world.

The Yangtze River: From "rest" to "endless life"

Cctv news(Evening News): The Yangtze River is one of the rivers with the richest aquatic biodiversity in the world, and it is also an important barrier to maintain China’s ecological security. However, it was once faced with a continuous decline in biodiversity index and a severe situation of endangered rare species. In order to protect this mother river, a 10-year ban on fishing has been implemented in key waters of the Yangtze River basin since 2021. In 2023, the Yangtze River fishing ban ushered in the closing year of a three-year strong foundation. What is the effect of three years of unremitting efforts? 

This is a video that has been sent to the Internet by netizens since 2023. The number of fish in the Yangtze River has increased, and even the unexpected encounter with finless porpoises in the Yangtze River has become a normal state that can happen at any time.

There is also good news from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs. The number of finless porpoises has stopped falling and rebounded for the first time. The distribution range and visible frequency of rare species such as swordfish and squid in the Yangtze River have increased significantly, and the aquatic biological resources have recovered. The three-year fishing ban has achieved gratifying results.

At the beginning of the new year, a new phase of the Yangtze River fishing ban began.

This is the Hubei Yangtze River Swan Island Baiji Dolphin National Nature Reserve located in Shishou, Hubei. In 2024, the plan to release the finless porpoise to the Yangtze River has been put on the agenda, and the staff are busy checking the activity and health of the finless porpoise for the smooth release.

The nature reserve is located in the Jingjiang section of the Yangtze River, which is the "nine-bend ileum". It has excellent hydrological conditions and is very suitable for the Yangtze finless porpoise to inhabit and breed. More than 100 finless porpoises have lived here. As the flagship species of the Yangtze River, the number of finless porpoises directly reflects the health score of the Yangtze River ecosystem. However, since the 1990s, the number of finless porpoises has been reduced from about 2,700 to about 1,012 in 2017. It is precisely because of this that the reserve has taken on the important task of ex situ conservation of finless porpoises. For the staff here, the first job that can’t be shaken every day is patrol.

Mao Junfeng, deputy director of the management office of Hubei Yangtze River Swan Island Baiji Dolphin National Nature Reserve:Twelve patrolmen, in groups of two, walk along the nature reserve once a day. One is to ban fishing, for fear of fishing, and the other is to manage the environment to see if there is any damage.

Patrol is not only carried out during the day, but also at night. No matter whether eating or sleeping, as long as abnormalities are found, the patrol staff will immediately deal with them.

Tao Le, head of Jiangbei Base of Hubei Yangtze River Swan Island Baiji Dolphin National Nature Reserve:At the peak of illegal fishing, I often go to sleep at two or three in the morning every day. The changes in the ecological environment of the reserve now also make us feel that the work we have done is very meaningful.

In addition to patrol, it is also an important link to repair the ecological resources of the old road of Swan Island and the main stream of the Yangtze River. Planting emergent plants such as Xiang Lian and reed, planting submerged plants such as black algae, wormwood and Myriophyllum, and building artificial fish nests can not only provide food for migratory birds, but also provide a better habitat for fish.

Tao Le, head of Jiangbei Base of Hubei Yangtze River Swan Island Baiji Dolphin National Nature Reserve:This is a reed, which was planted this year (2023). When the water level continues to rise (in summer), this beach will be covered by the water level, and fish will lay eggs, which will attach to the roots of these plants and promote the great cycle of biology.

Mao Junfeng, deputy director of the management office of Hubei Yangtze River Swan Island Baiji Dolphin National Nature Reserve:Through restoration, the living environment around the finless porpoise is better. More fish grass, more fish; There are more small fish and more birds. For example, in winter, there are more than 20,000 birds at the most, and there are many birds and fish, and finally a biodiversity living environment is achieved.

And it is the coordinated promotion from the state to the provinces and cities along the Yangtze River in the past three years. On March 1, 2021, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) Yangtze River Protection Law came into effect. As the first special river basin law in China, it puts forward higher requirements for biological protection, sewage treatment, flood control and disaster relief, and ecological restoration of the Yangtze River.

In the provinces and cities along the Yangtze River, the restoration of the ecological environment of the Yangtze River is in an overwhelming position. Sichuan, Guizhou and Yunnan provinces have established a horizontal ecological compensation mechanism in the basin to jointly protect the ecology of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River; Wuhan, Hubei Province will promote the ecological management of the Yangtze River in depth, block urban sewage from flowing into the Yangtze River and protect the middle reaches; In the downstream, the three provinces and one city in the Yangtze River Delta have coordinated governance and joint prevention and control. At the same time, the provinces and cities along the Yangtze River also replenish fish resources through proliferation and release to the Yangtze River every year, so the rare fish endemic to the Yangtze River are increasing. This kind of common governance has quietly changed the ecological environment of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.

In 2023, experts from the Institute of Hydrobiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences came to Tianezhou Baibo Dolphin Reserve and made a detailed survey of fishery resources in the Yangtze River waters near the reserve.

Hao Yujiang, Associate Research Fellow, Institute of Hydrobiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences:It is found that the number of fish is very large, the community structure is also very healthy and complete, and the biomass is also very large from small fish to large fish to predatory fish. In addition, from the point of view of water environment and water quality, it is obviously improved compared with the original.

All these efforts by the reserve and experts are actually preparing for an important action.

In April, 2023, four finless porpoises were released to the Yangtze River after nearly two years of wild training in the nature reserve, which was the first time for China to protect the finless porpoises ex situ.

Hu Lianghui, Director of the Management Office of Swan Island Baiji Dolphin National Nature Reserve in Hubei Yangtze River:The environment of the Yangtze River has been getting better and better, and now it is very suitable for the life of finless porpoises. After this success, we will release the finless porpoise into the Yangtze River every year or regularly.

At the moment when the finless porpoise jumped into the Yangtze River, everyone felt quite sad.

Tao Le, head of Jiangbei Base of Hubei Yangtze River Swan Island Baiji Dolphin National Nature Reserve:(Previously) we were running around it every day, and the chances of seeing it again in the future are very few, but the purpose of protecting the finless porpoise is also to enable it to finally return to the Yangtze River.

Hao Yujiang, Associate Research Fellow, Institute of Hydrobiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences:If the finless porpoise can be released naturally from the Yangtze River and its population can be restored naturally, it shows that our great protection of the Yangtze River is gradually showing better results, and the vitality of the mother river of the Yangtze River is once again glowing.  

The release and merger is not the end, and everyone is still paying attention to the living conditions of four finless porpoises.

Hao Yujiang, Associate Research Fellow, Institute of Hydrobiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences:Judging from the situation we have at present, we think that several finless porpoises should have adapted to the environment of the Yangtze River, and they may have merged with the natural population of the Yangtze River to form a larger natural population, which really makes us more excited.

After three years of protection and restoration, the Yangtze River is undergoing gratifying changes. In 2022, the latest scientific research of the Yangtze finless porpoise showed that the population of the Yangtze finless porpoise was 1,249, which achieved the first rebound since the monitoring data was available in 2006.

It’s not just the return of the finless porpoise that is exciting. In October 2023, the communiqué jointly issued by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, and the Ministry of Transport showed that the recovery of resources such as herring, grass carp, silver carp, bighead carp and Coilia ectenes was very obvious. The latest monitored fish species reached 193, an increase of 25 species compared with that before the fishing ban in 2020. The biological integrity index of the main stream of the Yangtze River, Poyang Lake and Dongting Lake increased by two grades compared with the beginning of the index system in 2018.

Liu Huanzhang, a researcher at the Institute of Hydrobiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences:Before the fishing ban, fish were mainly small individuals, but after the fishing ban, the average body length and weight increased significantly. Its density and total resources are increasing. If it is protected like this, some rare species should have a very good hope of recovery.

The ten-year ban on fishing is only one of the steps to protect the ecology of the Yangtze River. With the simultaneous promotion of the great protection of the Yangtze River, the water quality of the Yangtze River is also improving. From 2021 to 2023, the water quality of the main stream of the Yangtze River has been stable at Class II. From "fishing" to "protecting fishing", the fishermen who have retired from fishing have been converted into China Fishery Bureau Yangtze River patrolmen, and the public’s awareness of protecting the Yangtze River is increasing. Our mother river, the Yangtze River, is changing from "recuperation" to "endless life".

[CCTV short comment] March forward with the country towards dreams

It is a great plan for the future generations of Fuze to change the vitality of the Yangtze River with the courage to ban fishing for ten years. The realization of any dream will not happen overnight, and it will inevitably encounter setbacks and difficulties. The key is to have the spirit of not being afraid of difficulties and suffering. Since the beginning of the year, the special program "I March with the country" tells the story of many ordinary people’s struggles. They are engaged in different jobs, but they all have such a spirit. From their growth, we see an enterprising China. From their stories, we can feel that every step of the country is that countless ordinary people like you and me are running for their dreams. Running along the road with the country, ordinary people can also make great contributions to their home and country. In the new year, I hope you and I will continue to believe in the power of struggle, move towards our dreams and move forward with our country.

"Open" Chinese civilization and China wisdom to build a community of destiny in cyberspace

Cctv news(Reporter) Chen Shiwen):eightmoon29On the afternoon of the 20 th,2022The sub-forum of "International Exchange and Mutual Learning of Network Civilization" of China Network Civilization Conference was held in Tianjin in. This forum is guided by the Central Network Information Office, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, China Academy of Social Sciences and China Daily, and co-sponsored by China Cyberspace Research Institute and China Institute of International Studies.

Let "out of the circle" cultural relics contain network civilization

The forum shared the infinite possibilities provided by network technology for the inheritance and development of civilization, and many "sleeping" cultural treasures were inserted with digital wings, giving off the vitality and vitality of the new era.Yu Tianxiu, director of the Institute of Cultural Relics Digitalization of Dunhuang Research Institute, said that for the Mogao Grottoes, a world cultural heritage, they have completed data collection of 278 caves, image processing of 164 caves, three-dimensional reconstruction of colored sculptures, panoramic roaming and other cultural relics in the past 30 years. Reproduce the caves through high-precision data, so that the exhibition is not limited by the attributes of the cultural relics themselves, and it can go abroad to show better to other countries.

Yu Tianxiu also shared the feelings of international Dunhuang researchers using high-precision data. He said that in the past, research was limited to publishing albums or some local pictures to do Dunhuang studies, plus the contents of Dunhuang studies. Now, every high-definition detail can be seen from the overall shape of the cave to the whole wall. "Many old experts at Dunhuang Research Institute said that I used to take a flashlight and a telescope when I was watching in the cave. Now I can see many pictures by moving the mouse in front of the computer, and even the words on the list can be seen clearly, which is very convenient."

This year, the cultural relics unearthed in Sanxingdui in China frequently "go out of the circle". Thanks to the spread of digital network, the story of Sanxingdui civilization spread to thousands of households "overnight". They recorded the whole process of archaeological excavations and conducted live webcasts, allowing netizens to "taste the cultural relics" and tried to cooperate with 12K technology to shoot Sanxingdui cultural relics at a macro, so that netizens could "face to face" and immerse themselves in the national treasure.

At the forum, Lei Yu, the stationmaster of Sanxingdui Site Workstation of Sichuan Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology and director of Sanxingdui Museum, said in a video speech that in addition to the model re-engraving of cultural relics, it is also necessary to let Sanxingdui, an enduring spiritual civilization, play a leading role in culture and cultivate the patriotic feelings, moral sentiments and network literacy of netizens. Around the spiritual elements of Sanxingdui culture, such as "harmony between man and nature" and "reverence for nature", it is integrated into network resources through games, novels and music, and enters everyone’s life. "Sanxingdui" theme digital network collection creatively combines Sanxingdui civilization with the protection of rare animals, and the vivid and interesting animal images are deeply loved by netizens, which also enhances everyone’s attention to the protection of rare animals.

Taking the beauty of Chinese etiquette as well as the beauty of network civilization

As an inheritor of Chinese etiquette culture, Zhang Xiaolong, a professor at the China Academy of Art, elaborated the "etiquette" that network civilization can learn from in the old saying. Courtesy, respect others. No matter posting or commenting on the Internet, we can’t express our respect for others in an externalized way, but we can understand the etiquette spirit of "respecting others", and we should have basic manners, not spread rumors, respect the truth and respect the privacy of others. Etiquette, reason also. The network is a reasonable place. If you have any ideas and basis, you can communicate politely and realize the collision of ideas and opinions. This is the true meaning of network interaction.

"The use of etiquette, harmony is precious" expresses the ultimate goal and destination of learning, understanding and using etiquette. "Harmony" is the poem and distance of etiquette culture, and it is also the fundamental pursuit of all our participation in online activities. Zhang Xiaolong said, we can travel across the vast waters of Qian Shan through the Internet to pursue the truth, but don’t forget the pure land of "harmony". With a deep understanding of this sentence, all network behavior participants have their own feelings and boundaries. Zhang Xiaolong said in an interview after the meeting that as a public figure, although his strength is limited, he believes that as long as we work together to build a harmonious network civilization, it will be condensed into a powerful force.

Open and inclusive network promotes mutual trust and learning among civilizations. 

At present, the international situation has undergone profound and complex evolution, and peace and development remain the theme of the times. However, network civilization has broken each other’s time and space limitations, and long-distance cooperation and tolerance is becoming a new form of globalization. In the forum, Wang Huiyao, founder and chairman of the global think tank, proposed that how to promote the openness and tolerance of world civilization in the social change with the network as the core, and how to make the network better promote mutual understanding and trust between countries and people, is a proposition of the times that needs serious consideration.

As the only China think tank granted "special consultative status" by the United Nations — — Global think tanks have done a lot of foreign exchanges through the internet. Live online conversations with hundreds of international opinion leaders and think tank experts around the world at home and abroad have played a positive role in strengthening international communication and dialogue, avoiding decoupling and avoiding the Cold War. During the interview, Wang Huiyao also shared the project of international youth leaders dialogue initiated by them, which attracted hundreds of international youths from more than 50 countries to have a dialogue. A considerable part of these conversations are conducted on the internet, including digital proposals collected on the internet. This will promote the mutual learning of the world’s network civilization and tell the story of China well in the future.

In July this year, the world internet conference International Organization was established in Beijing. In August, China fully promoted its participation in the Digital Economy Partnership. It can be seen that the future China process is inseparable from the world network civilization. Wang Huiyao said that China can join hands with other countries in the world to strengthen mutual learning of civilizations and make more contributions to building a community of cyberspace destiny. 

Jiangxi is thrifty and Hangzhou is extravagant: How do people view regional differences in Ming Dynasty?

Guang Zhi Yi.

It is said that during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, my Taizhou sage, Mr. Wang Shixing (1547-1598), wrote a book called Guang Zhi Yi. After personal experience and on-the-spot investigation, he used the eyes of researchers to write down the differences between geographical environment and regional folk customs. Mr. Zhou Zhenhe thinks that the geographical and humanistic investigation of Wang Shixing has taken shape in modern geographical evaluation research, and his thought of analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of geographical background has directly influenced the writing of Gu Yanwu’s book on the diseases of the world’s counties and countries (Zhou Zhenhe’s geographical thought of Wang Shixing and its influence, Southeast Culture, No.2, 1994).

The book of diseases in all counties and countries.

According to Wang Shixing’s description, the same Zhejiang people are actually different in each region. West Zhejiang, that is, Hangjiahu area, is rich in plain land, so there are many rich people. "Rich and courteous" is the reason, so "human nature is delicate and elegant". However, in the mountainous areas of eastern Zhejiang, such as Taizhou, Wenzhou and Chuzhou, there are many mountains and barren soil, and fishing, hunting and farming make a living. The style of painting has become: "vulgar and simple, human nature is frugal, ancient and pure, and emphasis on simplicity." Geographical environment is not only a blessing given to us by God, but also a fate given to us by God. We often think that one hundred years is too long, but the fact is that after five hundred years, it is sometimes the same.

Therefore, the result of Mr. Wang Lao’s self-effacing investigation of "traveling" (of course, some people in the Qing Dynasty went on to criticize the "easy travel" of the Ming people without modesty) is still not easy to overturn. Zhang Xuecheng said: "Expertise in East Zhejiang, Shangboya in West Zhejiang, each learns from his own habits." It is true that he summed up the ideological fashion of eastern and western Zhejiang from the school inheritance, but this fashion itself is also consistent with the influence of human geography. Later, Mr. Lu Xun commented that Rou Shi had "Taizhou-style car-scrapping", because he thought of Fang Xiaoru, who was punished by ten families in the early Ming Dynasty. Looking back at Wang Shixing’s observation of eastern Zhejiang, it is not bad. It can be seen that the environment plays an obvious role in people’s temperament and even the cultivation of local folk customs, and it is not easy to change. For this regional difference, hundreds of years seems to be just a blink of an eye, which doesn’t make much sense.

The customs of Jiangxi are written in Volume 4 "Jiangnan Provinces" of Guangzhiyi:

Jiangyou’s common customs are hard-working, frugal and simple, and they are covered with numerous teeth and barren soil, so everyone has their own thoughts of sorrow. It is also good at saving money, and the skilled workers return. It counts as a family of several people, and how many grains are used in the year. You must pay the full fee, and if there is no home, then the bedside bottle is nothing more than a millet. The rest will be used to heal the wounds and conquer the losses, and will never be used for the drama of angry horses and banquets. That is to say, those who have no money in their pockets, and who are close to their neighbors for a while, count the population of their families, and the men will sue again for more than ten days. Therefore, there are no hungry people in the wilderness, and the wanderer has no internal care. It’s the beauty of vulgarity to cover your worries and make a living. It’s the wind of crickets and filariasis.

Wang Shixing only makes an objective observation and summary here. Because of poor land and large population, Jiangxi "has a sad thought" and has developed a frugal and simple folk custom. If you have surplus food on weekdays, you will not use it to enjoy or improve your life, but save it for a rainy day. The advantage of this frugality is that there are no hungry people even when famine comes, which is a great self-management and self-help in ancient society where famine is frequent! Therefore, Wang Shixing thinks that its folk customs are "the most beautiful", and comparing the poems of tang style Cricket with those of July is of course the highest praise, which is the fundamental purpose and spiritual aesthetics of "attaching importance to agriculture" and "worrying about civil affairs" in agricultural society.

At the same time, Wang Shixing wrote about the folk customs in Hangzhou: "Hangzhou customs are clever and prosperous, evil and frugal, but they are happy to travel, and most of them are gradually infected with the lessons of traveling in the south, and the mountains and rivers are enough to inspire them." However, everyone is diligent and self-sufficient, and the rest are happy. Men and women over the age of five have no jobs, that is, the gentry family. ….. People have no money to bear, but they don’t mean to save. That is to say, the husband and servant are working all day, and at night they go to the market to cook and drink, and the couple are drunk. " ("Guang Zhi Yi" Volume 4) This style of drinking today and getting drunk today is in sharp contrast with the customs in Jiangxi. Imagine that at that time, if a girl from Hangzhou went to a guy’s house in Jiangxi, she would have come back overnight, because the habit of "being frugal and having fun" could not be changed. On the other hand, Jiangxi guys are also likely to criticize Hangzhou girls and regard them as evil women and avoid them.

Although Wang Shixing did not imagine the scene conflict caused by regional differences, what is certain is that his old man’s house will not fill the pit of regional differences with "political correctness". At that time, the political correctness should focus on agriculture, oppose commerce and oppose luxury. And Mr. Wang’s thought is not against business, nor against luxury, and there is still a certain distance from "political correctness" In his view, the differences created by geographical environment are objective, related to economy, not to morality. He said: "Although the concept of sightseeing is not simple and vulgar, the West Lake has become a tourist destination, so it is profitable for the fine people. It is not only a thousand dollars a day, but it is forbidden at times to change customs. However, fishermen, boaters, performers, market participants and drowning people have lost their jobs, which is not convenient for this generation." Extravagant play indirectly supports employment and prospers the market. This is obviously different from the general "orthodox" thought of rejecting commerce and opposing luxury at that time. Of course, this thought of Wang Shixing has its advanced points. When researchers discuss the ideological habits of the late Ming Dynasty, especially the debate on "luxury and rationality", they often cite this passage as evidence (see Lin Liyue’s "Luxury, frugality, origin-the order mentality of Ming and Qing societies").

It is obviously not a good way to fill the hole of dissatisfaction with "political correctness", taking morality and even refining it to women’s morality. The author has always believed that Kong Old Master Q’s statement that "only women and villains are difficult to support" is true, and that when Confucius said this, he pointed at women clearly, without any derogatory meaning. Women and villains, who move only for profit, are often separated from the "ideal" and "sacrifice" of the master, who only stated the result of this objective observation. Although women can be educated, countless facts have repeatedly proved that education is a bad business with disproportionate input and output.

Mr. Huang Renyu summed up the failure of Ming Dynasty in his book "Broadening the Horizon of History", and thought that "the government’s economic policy at that time was based on the situation of low-developed areas, not on the situation of high-developed areas". Still taking Jiangxi as an example, the author’s "over-interpretation" is that instead of advocating Jiangxi to overcome the disadvantages of the original geography and region and develop possible industries to catch up, it is necessary to let the whole country learn the spirit of Jiangxi’s "cricket fire". Therefore, he further concluded: "The authority under China’s imperial system, in the eyes of Westerners, obliterates the individual character of each region, ignores its natural endowments, and advocates cultural coordination in a huge area." (Huang Renyu’s "Broaden the Horizon of History") The gap of regional differences is tried to be filled by cultural coordination, which is not far from the bad customs such as "there is not enough drama, and women are together".
