Must see! How to choose a hybrid car? One article takes you to buy easily →

With the rapid development of new energy vehicles

Hybrid cars are favored by more and more consumers.

The design concept of "dual use of oil and electricity" makes people feel "really fragrant"

However, there are many hybrid car models.

Let many consumers make it difficult to choose.

Then follow the experts.

Understanding Hybrid Vehicle from Technical System

Choose the car that suits you best.

What is a hybrid car?

Hybrid electric vehicles are referred to as "hybrid vehicles" and generally refer toCombining the traditional internal combustion engine technology with the motor technology.As a power source, a car canSwitching power sources under different driving conditionsSo as to optimize the energy use efficiency and give consideration to the endurance of fuel vehicles and the environmental protection characteristics of electric vehicles.

According to the structural form of power system

Series hybrid electric vehicle (SHEV)

Only the engine works to drive the generator to provide drive for the motor.

√ Advantages

The engine always generates electricity in the high efficiency range, which can provide a smoother driving experience and fuel-saving effect at low speed, and the energy recovery system is also more efficient.

X shortcomings

When driving at high speed or needing high power output, the fuel consumption performance is poor, and the motor conversion efficiency is reduced, resulting in higher fuel consumption than ordinary fuel vehicles.

Parallel hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV)

The engine and motor can work simultaneously or separately.

√ Advantages

In pure electric drive mode, the use cost is low; In the hybrid drive mode, the dynamic performance is excellent.

X shortcomings

We can’t rely solely on pure electric drive for a long time, and we can’t fully reflect the economic advantages of electric new energy. In pure fuel mode, fuel consumption may be difficult to control.

Series-parallel hybrid electric vehicle (CHEV)

The engine can also generate electricity while driving the output with the motor.

√ Advantages

Combining the advantages of series and parallel technology, the fuel economy, power output energy efficiency, cruising range and driving experience are better.

X shortcomings

The overall system layout of the automobile is more complex, and the requirements for the control system are higher, so the daily maintenance cost is relatively high.

According to the external charging function

Plug-in hybrid electric Vehicle

A hybrid electric vehicle that can obtain electric energy from off-board devices under normal use.

Unplugged hybrid electric vehicle

A hybrid electric vehicle that obtains all the energy from on-board fuel under normal use.

How to choose a hybrid car that suits you?

Charging condition

√ There are charging conditions:Suggested choicePlug-in hybrid vehicle, convenient for power supply, not limited by time and place. with regard toShort daily commuteFor consumers, it can maximize the economy.

× No charging condition:It is recommended to choose an electric drive with a long cruising range and support DC fast charging.Series hybrid vehicle, series hybrid vehicle or non-plug-in hybrid vehicleWhen the power is insufficient, you can still rely on the internal combustion engine to work, which avoids the problem of mileage anxiety and reduces the inconvenience of frequent charging and charging time.

Fuel consumption situation

In addition to the actual fuel consumption performance of the car, it is recommended to choose.Low loss/feed fuel consumptionA hybrid car.

In the case of no charging, the output economy of the engine determines the use cost.

ifOften run long distances.% of consumers don’t recommend choosing series hybrid cars, because the economy of high-speed fuel consumption is relatively poor, so choose.Parallel and series-parallel hybrid vehiclesMore appropriate.

Loss of electricity and fuel consumptionRefers to the fuel consumption that depends solely on the engine for output when the automobile is exhausted or insufficient.

Feed oil consumptionRefers to the fuel consumption of the engine not only for power output, but also for charging the battery.

Power battery capacity

The sustainability of the peak power output of the motor is often limited by the output of the battery.

International trade is still an important force driving global economic growth | China observation

Looking forward to the new year, the global economy will continue to benefit from the integration of international trade.

First of all, despite all kinds of statements, international trade is still strong.figure 1It shows the trend of global gross domestic product (GDP) and trade volume in the past 30 years (the data in 2023 is the predicted value in the World Economic Outlook released by the International Monetary Fund in October 2023). In 2023, the global trade volume is expected to be 8% higher than the peak before the COVID-19 epidemic.

pictureonethe whole worldGDP and trade index (1990year=one00)

Secondly, the attitude of policy makers towards implementing trade protectionism has weakened.

The global trade early warning system has been tracking policy interventions that affect international trade and cross-border investment. From 2020 to 2022, the system recorded an average of more than 4,800 trade restrictions every year (Figure 2)。 Compared with an average of 2,800 such interventions each year from 2009 to 2019, the number has increased significantly.

The surge in recent years is probably caused by the COVID-19 epidemic. Encouragingly, as the COVID-19 epidemic recedes, policy makers are no longer inclined to protect the domestic market. In 2023, these trade restrictions fell below 3,000.

picture2: Number of trade restrictions

The global trade early warning system also tracks trade liberalization measures (Figure 3)。 Trade restrictions are usually about five times that of trade liberalization, however, the proportion is shrinking at present.

We should not underestimate the benefits of reducing protectionist policies to the global economy. Research by the Swiss Center for Economic Research (KOF) shows that trade liberalization is a key factor to support per capita GDP growth.

The research of Freund Loinder and his co-authors shows that, despite the adoption of protectionist policies, the de-globalization of the United States is limited to a part of US-China trade. Although the then US President Trump imposed tariffs in 2018-2019, trade data shows that the overall openness of the United States to the world has not changed. In the year ending in November 2023, the import volume of goods in the United States increased by 24% compared with 2019 (Figure 4)。

picturefourUS merchandise imports (trillion US dollars)

However, the United States imposed tariffs on goods imported from China, which caused China’s share of American goods imports to drop from 22% in early 2018 to 14% in November 2023. After a very detailed analysis of American imports, Loinder and his co-authors found that the decline of China’s market share is not a common phenomenon in all imported goods, but concentrated on the goods affected by American tariffs.

Loinder and other co-authors also found that countries that increased their exports to the United States in these product lines also strengthened their supply relationship with China, especially for those products listed as "advanced technology products" by the United States government. Therefore, the United States may not be able to reduce its dependence on China as its trade data shows.

The latest research by Qiu Han and his co-authors also confirms this conclusion. Qiu Han and his co-authors found that companies from other countries in the Asia-Pacific region seem to have intervened in the supply chain between China and the United States, occupying a larger share of the added value. This influence is most obvious in the information technology (IT) industry, in which the direct contact between China and the United States has evolved into indirect contact through other Asian countries.

China is playing an increasingly important role in the regional supply chain.

table 1It shows that in the year ending September 2023, China’s share of US merchandise imports was 14.0%, which was 7.5 percentage points lower than that in 2017 (21.5%). In the same period, China’s import share to the four largest ASEAN countries (Viet Nam, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia) increased by 4.0 percentage points. Most notably, China’s share of Vietnamese merchandise imports increased by 7.2 percentage points. Among the four largest ASEAN countries, Vietnam’s exports to the United States increased the most (Figure 5)。

Although China’s share of global merchandise imports dropped from 13.7% to 13.2%, the decline in its share was entirely due to China’s export performance to the United States. China’s share of goods imports in other parts of the world except the United States increased by 0.6 percentage points. It is worth mentioning that, although the increase in tariffs has led to a decrease in China’s share (14.0%) of American merchandise imports, the United States still relies more on China’s merchandise imports than other regions in the world (China’s share of imports is 13.1%).

All in all, globalization has not undergone a major reversal. This is a good thing, because specialized division of labor and free trade are important forces to promote global economic growth. The United States may not be able to reduce its dependence on China as its trade data shows. From China’s point of view, the United States’ tariff increase measures have led China enterprises to extend their supply chains and strengthen cooperation with their Asian neighbors. China is playing an increasingly important role in the regional supply chain.

An important step in reshaping economic and trade relations between China and the United States —— Interpretation of the first-stage economic and trade agreement between China and the United States

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, January 16th Title: An important step in reshaping economic and trade relations between China and the United States — — Interpretation of the first-stage economic and trade agreement between China and the United States

  Xinhua news agency reporter

  This is a moment of global concern — —

  At about 13: 00 local time on January 15th, the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, Vice Premier the State Council, Liu He, the Chinese leader of the China-US Comprehensive Economic Dialogue, and Trump, the US President, signed the first-stage Sino-US economic and trade agreement at the White House, marking an important step for China and the United States to solve the problem.

  In the past two years, after 13 rounds of high-level consultations and more than 20 telephone consultations between leaders, this Sino-US economic and trade agreement has not come easily. The agreement is written in Chinese and English, both texts being equally authentic. The agreement includes preface, Chapter I Intellectual Property, Chapter II Technology Transfer, Chapter III Trade in Food and Agricultural Products, Chapter IV Financial Services, Chapter V Macroeconomic Policy, Exchange Rate Issues and Transparency, Chapter VI Trade Expansion, Chapter VII Bilateral Evaluation and Dispute Settlement, and Chapter VIII Final Clauses.

  What is the significance of the formal signing of the first-stage economic and trade agreement? What are the important points of the agreement text? Both sides are concerned about how to respond in the text. What is the future direction of Sino-US economic and trade cooperation? Xinhua News Agency reporters interviewed authoritative sources for the first time to comprehensively interpret the text of the agreement.

  Mutual benefit and win-win — — This is an agreement based on equality and mutual respect.

  Cooperation is the best choice for both China and the United States. When we look at the Chinese version of the agreement, the words "both parties should" appearing in almost every chapter tell us that it is an agreement that strives for balance on the basis of equality and mutual respect.

  "Many chapters of the agreement not only reflect the interests of the United States, but also reflect the interests of China. It is a balanced agreement that conforms to the interests of both China and the United States." Zhang Yuexiao, former chairman of the Appellate Body of the WTO Dispute Settlement Mechanism, told reporters that the signing of the first-stage economic and trade agreement between China and the United States has injected a "stabilizer" into China and the United States and the world economy, which has become a starting point for the two countries to rebuild their economic and trade relations.

  Before the signing of the agreement, there were many concerns that China had made great concessions.

  From the content of the agreement, it mainly covers three aspects: deepening two-way trade cooperation, further relaxing market access and continuously optimizing the business environment. At the same time, the two sides will establish bilateral evaluation and dispute settlement arrangements to resolve economic and trade differences in a timely and effective manner. On the issue of tariff retrogression, the United States promised to cancel some tariffs on Chinese products. It can be said that this agreement is beneficial to China, the United States and the whole world, which shows the mutual benefit and win-win nature of Sino-US economic and trade cooperation.

  Gao Lingyun, a researcher at the Institute of World Economics and Politics of China Academy of Social Sciences, said that the agreement fully caters to the legitimate concerns of both sides and is generally equal and mutually beneficial. Judging from China’s commitments, whether it is to strengthen intellectual property protection, increase imports of agricultural products and energy products, or expand financial opening up, many provisions are reform and opening-up measures that China has introduced, which are in line with the established direction of China’s reform and opening up.

  "The signing of the agreement is just the right time, which will help provide a relatively stable external environment for China to maintain sustained and healthy economic development and realize the great cause of national rejuvenation." Gao Lingyun said that the agreement also pushed the United States to realize the turning point of increasing tariffs on China from rising to falling, including suspending the tariffs originally scheduled to be increased on December 15th last year, and reducing the tariff rate on China, which came into effect on September 1st last year, from 15% to 7.5%. This is also the first time that the current US administration has reduced the tariffs already imposed by a country, which is conducive to gradually returning Sino-US economic and trade relations to the right track.

  After the signing of the agreement, will the US unilaterally send personnel to China to supervise the implementation? Zhang Yuexiao said that one of the highlights of the agreement in dispute settlement is that the word "supervision" is not used throughout, and the word "arrangement" is used instead. The US will not send personnel to China to supervise the implementation, and both sides promise to establish bilateral evaluation and dispute settlement arrangements. "In fact, outside the WTO, the two sides have built a platform to resolve differences and frictions. Through the bottom-up communication and dialogue mechanism from the bureau level to the ministerial level, differences can be managed and discussed, and the trade rights and interests of both sides can be better protected."

  According to the agreement, China and the United States should resume macroeconomic meetings to discuss comprehensive economic issues. This makes the outside world have more expectations for China and the United States to manage their differences more effectively through dialogue and consultation and promote the development of Sino-US economic and trade relations under the new historical conditions.

  Complementary advantages — — There is room and principle for China to expand imports from the United States.

  Deepening two-way trade cooperation is a major attraction of the agreement. The two sides promised to expand the scale of trade in manufactured goods, agricultural products, energy products and services.

  "The economies of China and the United States are highly complementary. From the perspective of the super-large-scale economy and market of the two countries, Sino-US trade potential is huge." Dong Yan, director of the International Trade Research Office of the Institute of World Economics and Politics of China Academy of Social Sciences, said.

  Deepening trade cooperation is conducive to the optimal allocation of resources and the adjustment of economic structure between the two countries, to further giving play to the complementary characteristics of the two economies, to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results, to deepen global economic and trade cooperation, to effectively boost confidence in the global market and to maintain the stability of the global industrial chain and supply chain.

  "The two sides responded to China and the United States with tangible actions ‘ Decoupling ’ Speech is conducive to consolidating the foundation of Sino-US relations and enhancing the certainty for the stable development of the global economy. " Zhang Yansheng, chief researcher of China International Economic Exchange Center, said.

  China, with a population of nearly 1.4 billion, has the largest and most growing middle-income group in the world, with great market potential and great room for expanding imports. Importing high-quality goods and services from the United States is conducive to meeting China’s expanding market demand. In 2019, the import scale of China’s goods trade exceeded US$ 2 trillion, and the import scale of services was around US$ 500 billion. The huge market scale attracted worldwide attention.

  There are also rules to follow in expanding imports from the United States. According to the agreement, the United States should take appropriate measures to ensure that there are enough American goods and services for China to purchase and import, and China will conduct procurement activities based on market prices and commercial considerations.

  Zhang Yansheng emphasized that enterprises are the main body of procurement activities, and the most important responsibility of the Chinese and American governments is to create conditions for normal and legal economic and trade exchanges between enterprises. China has repeatedly expressed its willingness to encourage domestic enterprises to abide by WTO rules, negotiate import agreements with American enterprises according to the principle of marketization, and ensure that they will not discriminate against goods and services from other countries and regions.

  Experts emphasized that expanding imports will naturally bring certain market competition, structural products and interest adjustment. However, China has accumulated successful experience since the reform and opening up and nearly 20 years of WTO accession, and the majority of market players have sufficient competition tolerance, which will also help to effectively achieve transformation and upgrading through competition.

  One side wants to buy more, and the other side has to sell more. Wang Honggang, director of the American Institute of China Institute of Contemporary International Relations, stressed that expanding trade requires the joint efforts of both sides. He hoped that the US side would follow China’s lead, expand the production capacity of various products and services, improve product quality and price competitiveness, and meet the relevant regulatory requirements of China. If China’s imports from the United States are affected by the relevant actions of the United States and other circumstances, China has the right to propose consultations with the United States, which is conducive to promoting the realization of procurement commitments.

  Two-way benefit — — Agricultural products trade will not affect China’s food security.

  Sino-US agricultural cooperation is an important pillar of bilateral relations. The chapter on trade in food and agricultural products in the agreement covers key areas of bilateral agricultural cooperation such as dairy products, poultry meat, beef, pork, processed meat, aquatic products, rice, fruits, feed and pet food.

  Experts said that the implementation of the agreement will greatly increase China’s imports of agricultural products from the United States, which to some extent responds to the concerns of the United States, but it will not have an impact on domestic agriculture, let alone affect national food security, and can ensure that China’s rice bowl is firmly in its own hands. At the same time, the import of agricultural products from the United States should also meet the requirements of China’s import supervision standards.

  China is the world’s largest importer of agricultural products, accounting for 1/10 of the global agricultural trade. Among them, about 85% of China’s soybean consumption depends on imports, and the annual soybean imports are about 90 million tons.

  "China’s population is 1 billion more than that of the United States, and its arable land is 1 billion mu less. The two countries have broad space for agricultural cooperation, and expanding imports is conducive to filling the gap between domestic supply and demand." Zhang Yansheng said.

  Gao Lingyun analyzed that on the one hand, domestic demand is growing, and China has full market capacity to import agricultural products; On the other hand, importing agricultural products can enrich people’s choices and reduce consumption cost.

  An equal and mutually beneficial agreement is not only bought by one party in buy buy. One of the highlights of this agreement is to open the door for expanding China’s agricultural products exports to the United States, which is an important substantive achievement.

  In the process of economic and trade consultation, the US announced the final rules for allowing China’s cooked poultry meat to be exported to the US, and China became the country qualified to export its own cooked poultry meat to the US after Canada, Mexico, Chile and other countries. The United States also recognizes that the catfish supervision system in China is equivalent to that in the United States, and allows pears, oranges and fresh dates from China to be exported to the United States.

  The data shows that in 2018, China’s agricultural exports reached nearly 80 billion US dollars, including 7.7 billion US dollars to the United States, accounting for about 1/10 of the total agricultural exports. With the substantial achievements in the export of agricultural products to the United States and the resolution of some export obstacles that have been deadlocked for more than 10 years, Chinese farmers and industries will also benefit.

  According to the agreement, China will import some wheat, corn and rice from the United States, but the quantity will be strictly controlled within the tariff quota. It is reported that the self-sufficiency rate of wheat, corn and rice in China has never fallen below 98%, which means that the expansion of grain imports from international markets, including the United States, is only for variety adjustment and will not exceed the quota limit.

  "We will adhere to the basic self-sufficiency of grain and the absolute safety of rations, and the bottom line of national food security will not be broken." The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs stressed.

  Helping innovation — — Intellectual property protection and technology transfer reflect the wishes of both parties and meet the inherent needs of China’s development.

  Intellectual property protection and technology transfer have always been the focus of Sino-US economic and trade negotiations. The agreement covers patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, geographical indications, intellectual property protection of drugs and networks, and makes specific provisions on technology transfer in special chapters.

  There are many aspects of the agreement, such as the protection of drug intellectual property rights, the stipulation of supplementary data for drug patent application and the effective mechanism for early settlement of patent disputes, which will help to better protect drug research and development; In the aspect of combating network infringement, it stipulates the responsibility of taking off the notice of e-commerce platform to better protect consumers’ rights and interests; The agreement also regulates malicious complaints, cracks down on malicious trademark registration, and strengthens the protection of trade secrets.

  "The content of intellectual property rights reflects the common will of China and the United States to provide high-level intellectual property protection for enterprises and people in both countries." Zhang Yuexiao said that in recent years, the level of intellectual property protection in China has been continuously improved, and many solid and effective measures have been introduced. "If you look closely at the agreement, you will find that many terms are consistent with the policies and regulations that China has already introduced."

  According to the agreement, in the chapter on technology transfer, the two sides agreed not to use administrative management and administrative licensing requirements to force technology transfer, which is conducive to creating an environment that respects knowledge value and encourages innovation, and pushing the government to shift from R&D management to innovative services.

  "At the beginning of China’s accession to the WTO, China made a commitment. So far, there is no mandatory technology transfer provision in any law. The foreign investment law implemented on January 1 this year also explicitly prohibits mandatory technology transfer, which shows the international image of China’s commitment." Gao Lingyun said.

  It is worth noting that, whether in the chapter on intellectual property or technology transfer, the relevant requirements and obligations are equal and balanced for both China and the United States, and both sides need to abide by them.

  Gao Lingyun said that China’s efforts to strengthen intellectual property protection are aimed at providing a better business environment for all enterprises, including US-funded enterprises, and safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of various market players. Similarly, the United States should provide the same level of protection for the intellectual property rights of China enterprises and better safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese-funded enterprises in the United States.

  Cheng Dawei, a professor at the School of Economics of Renmin University of China, said that this is in line with China’s own needs to promote the construction of an innovative country, and it is also a concrete manifestation of the new development concept. I believe that after the agreement is reached, China will further stimulate the innovation and development vitality of the whole society in accordance with the established rhythm and better achieve high-quality development.

  Stabilize the market — — Financial services are open, autonomous and orderly, and exchange rate policy is by no means a replica of some square agreement.

  China and the United States are highly complementary in the financial field and have great room for cooperation. According to the agreement, China and the United States promised to provide fair and effective non-discriminatory market access treatment in the fields of banking, securities, insurance, electronic payment and financial asset management. China promises to treat all opening measures equally and accept applications from various financial institutions in compliance with the law; The United States actively promotes the resolution of practical obstacles encountered by Chinese-funded institutions in doing business in the United States.

  "China’s commitment to financial services is consistent with China’s independent and orderly opening up of the financial industry in recent years. Many terms have been announced and many measures are being implemented." Cheng Dawei said.

  In recent years, the opening-up of China’s financial industry has been steady and steady. At present, most measures have been put in place, and many foreign-funded financial institutions have entered China to actually carry out business.

  Zhang Yansheng emphasized that the opening up of China’s financial industry is not a matter of letting go and letting itself drift. The opening up and supervision of China’s financial industry are always in parallel to ensure that no risks occur.

  Both China and the United States are basket countries of special drawing rights (SDR), and the consensus reached by the two countries on the exchange rate issue is crucial to the orderly operation of the global market.

  Many people in the industry have found that more than ten clauses on exchange rate policy in the agreement all start from the promises of "both sides", showing strong reciprocity. The two sides promised to respect each other’s monetary policy autonomy, treat the exchange rate issue equally, let the market decide the exchange rate system, avoid competitive devaluation, and enhance the transparency of exchange rate policy.

  Ding Zhijie, director of the Foreign Exchange Research Center of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, said that there have been concerns that the Sino-US exchange rate agreement is a replica of some kind of plaza agreement. The agreement signed this time proves that it is by no means a mutual respect and consultation agreement, which embodies multilateral consensus and can be said to be a model for coordinating exchange rate policies among big countries.

  The agreement also made a clear definition of "large-scale, sustained and one-way intervention" on exchange rate manipulation. Cheng Dawei said that according to this definition, it is obviously not in line with the spirit of the agreement that the United States listed China as a "currency manipulator" before. Before the signing of the agreement, the United States cancelled its previous mistaken identification of China as a "currency manipulator", thus clearing the way for the signing of the agreement.

  Whether the agreement is good or not is up to the market. Experts believe that since the two sides announced an agreement on the text of the first phase agreement on December 13, 2019, the global economic and financial markets have responded positively in the past month, and the US stock market has reached a new high. It is believed that after this mutually beneficial and win-win agreement is formally signed, it will help to manage differences and solve problems, help to restore market expectations and confidence, and promote the stability of the financial markets of the two countries and the world.

More than 600 yuan per gram, young people rushed to buy gold ornaments, and the price reached a record high.

The price of gold has gone up again. In the morning of December 4th, the global gold price hit a new record high. With the international gold price rising, domestic gold retail and jewelry prices have risen again. On December 4th, the unit price of gold jewelry per gram of several jewelry brands in Hefei exceeded that of 630 yuan, and it was slightly adjusted back on December 5th. Some salespeople said that the price of gold will remain high in the short term, and many "non-just-needed" consumers will stay on the sidelines, which will have an impact on sales.

The price of gold ornaments in the provincial capital reached a new high.

As the international gold price rises, the price of gold jewelry rises accordingly. On the morning of December 5th, in Chow Tai Fook Hall of the Top 100 Drum Tower Famous Products Center, the retail price of gold jewelry and ornaments was 619 yuan per gram, handicrafts were 609 yuan per gram, and investment in gold was 562 yuan per gram. Li Xiaorong, director of the store, told Anhui Business Daily that the price of the day had dropped from the previous day. On the 4th, the price of jewelry gold was 630 yuan, and when the 30 yuan discount per gram was included, the price also broke through 600 yuan, setting a record high. "The current highest point this year is also the highest price in these years."

In an old temple nearby, Gold, the price of all-gold 999 jewelry on that day is also 619 yuan per gram, and you can enjoy 30 yuan discount per gram. Shop assistant Zheng Hailan told Anhui Business Daily that the price of gold has been fluctuating for nearly half a month, with a fluctuation of more than ten yuan almost every day, and it has remained above 600 yuan for many days.

 Anhui Business Daily reporters learned that the prices of various brands of gold ornaments have risen, almost reaching the highest price. According to statistics, the latest price of Chow Tai Fook is 630 yuan, which is 34% higher than the lowest price in 470 yuan in recent three years and 133% higher than the lowest price in 270 yuan in recent ten years.

As the price of brand jewelry rises, so does the wholesale price. Near Hong Kong Street, Ningguo Road, Hefei, there are many gold wholesale dealers. In an old Hongfu jewelry store, manager Peng Nannan introduced that the store is a direct selling model, and the price is synchronized with Shenzhen Shuibei Gold Wholesale Market. The price of that day is 475 yuan per gram. "It fell today. It was 495 yuan the night before yesterday and 482 yuan during the day yesterday. The fluctuation was relatively large." She introduced that in my impression, the price of gold was relatively low before and after the National Day this year, and the wholesale price was about one gram of 440 yuan, and it has been rising all the way since then.

Zheng Hailan, assistant of the Old Temple Gold Store of the Top 100 Drum Tower Famous Products Center, told Anhui Business Daily that the price of gold continued to rise this year, which had an impact on "non-just-needed" consumers. The current monthly sales volume dropped by more than 10% compared with the same period last year. "Many old customers are optimistic about the style and say hello to me. The price of gold has dropped and it has not dropped." Zheng Hailan has an old customer. He got married at the beginning of last year and bought "hardware". This year, he accompanied his brother to buy it. "The same weight, a set bought, is more than 3,100 yuan more expensive."

Young people become the main consumer

Who is buying gold? Anhui Business Daily reporters visited and found that in addition to investment demand, young people have become the main force in the gold jewelry consumer market. According to the Consumer Insight Report of China Gold Jewelry Consumption Industry in 2022, from 2016 to 2021, the proportion of young people buying gold has increased from 16% to 59%, and young people are an important group of gold consumption.

Peng Nannan, the jewelry manager of Lao Hongfu, told Anhui Business Daily that in recent years, young people have bought more and more gold. "This year’s popular enamel and palace style are particularly popular."

Li Xiaorong, store director of Chow Tai Fook Club, said that in the past, young people bought more diamonds and platinum when they got married, and gold has become the mainstream in these years. "Young people are generally more pragmatic, and they will pay attention to the preservation of gold. The’ three gold’ and’ hardware’ are basically based on gold." In addition to marriage, the consumer demand for "pleasing yourself" is also growing. "Necklaces and rings under 10 grams, fashionable and exquisite products are very popular." 

In a Senfan jewelry store on Ningguo Road, Ms. Zhang, the person in charge, said that in addition to buying gold rings and necklaces, many young people played a "fixed investment in kind". Pay a salary every month to buy yourself a "golden melon seed" and "golden beans" and put them in a bottle.

The market outlook needs to pay attention to the dollar and the world situation.

What’s the next step for gold prices? Traders in the financial market department of Bank of China Anhui Branch analyzed that due to geopolitical uncertainty, the decline of the US dollar index and the expectation of the Federal Reserve’s interest rate cut, the price of gold may remain high next year.

"The price of gold in the international market is denominated in US dollars. Under the condition that other factors remain unchanged, the depreciation of the US dollar will boost the price of gold." According to analysis, the current US dollar index has been at the highest level in 20 years, and the probability of turning down in the future is high, which means that gold has a high probability of continuing to rise in the future.

"On the other hand, gold has a strong risk-aversion property. International geopolitical risks such as the Russian-Ukrainian war and the Palestinian-Israeli conflict have triggered a great increase in investors’ risk aversion and stimulated strong demand for gold in the market. The imbalance between supply and demand is likely to lead to a further rise in gold prices." According to analysis, from the perspective of the Fed’s monetary policy, the market is expected to cut interest rates by the Fed in the near future. If the US dollar enters the interest rate cut channel in the future, the US dollar exchange rate may be under pressure immediately, and the flow of funds between US dollar assets and gold may be more active.

Many salespeople in the provincial capital believe that the price of gold may remain high in the short term. Zheng Hailan, the assistant of the old temple gold shop, believes that two months before and after the Spring Festival every year is the real peak season for gold sales, and it will not be ruled out that it will rise again.

Keynote Speech by Li Qiang at the Opening Ceremony of the 2023 Annual Meeting of Boao Forum for Asia (full text)

Xinhua News Agency, Boao, Hainan, March 30th

Guided by the concept of community of human destiny
Inject more certainty into world peace and development.
-Keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the 2023 annual meeting of Boao Forum for Asia
(March 30, 2023, Boao, Hainan)
Li Qiang, Prime Minister of the State Council, People’s Republic of China (PRC)

Dear heads of government,

Dear heads of international organizations,

Dear directors of Boao Forum for Asia,

Ladies and gentlemen,

Ladies and gentlemen, friends,

I am very happy to meet you in the beautiful Hainan Island and attend the 2023 annual meeting of Boao Forum for Asia. First of all, on behalf of the China Municipal Government, I would like to extend my warm congratulations on the opening of the annual meeting! I would like to extend my sincere welcome to all the guests! Thank you for your long-term concern and support for the development of China!

The theme of this annual meeting is "An uncertain world: unity and cooperation to meet challenges, openness and tolerance to promote development", which is in line with the current situation and concerns of all parties and has strong practical significance. In today’s world, chaos is intertwined, and human society is facing unprecedented challenges. Instability, uncertainty and unpredictability have become the norm. In this great change full of uncertainty, people urgently hope to have more and stronger deterministic forces to push the world forward towards a better future.

Ten years ago, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader first put forward the important concept of a community of human destiny, and then on many international occasions, including the Boao Forum for Asia, he profoundly expounded China’s proposition of building a community of human destiny, and further put forward global development initiatives, global security initiatives and global civilization initiatives, providing a Chinese plan for global development and governance. In the past 10 years, China has promoted the building of a community of human destiny with pragmatic actions and achieved a series of significant practical results. In particular, the high-quality joint construction of the "Belt and Road" has driven the vast number of developing countries to accelerate their development and opened up new space for the world economy. At the same time, it has also made fruitful efforts in advocating political settlement of the crisis, solving international hot issues, persuading peace and promoting talks, and turning war into friendship, demonstrating the responsibility of a responsible big country. These are vivid practices of the concept of a community of human destiny. Facts have proved that the concept of a community of human destiny has become a banner that leads the trend of the times and human progress, and a source of certainty that promotes lasting peace and common prosperity in the world.

Now, Asia and the world are at the crossroads of historical evolution. We must hold high the banner of the concept of a community of human destiny, work together to build a community of Asian destiny, build an anchor of world peace and stability, a source of growth and a new highland of cooperation, inject more certainty into world peace and development, and strive to create a better future for mankind.

First, jointly protect a peaceful and stable development environment and inject more certainty into the chaotic and intertwined international situation. Peace is the premise of development. In the past few decades, Asia has achieved remarkable development achievements in the world, which cannot be separated from the overall peaceful and stable environment; In order to achieve greater development in Asia in the future, there must be no chaos and war, otherwise it will ruin its future. The Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence and the Bandung Spirit, which were born nearly 70 years ago, are the crystallization of the wisdom of the Asian people. The "Asian way", which takes mutual respect, consensus and taking care of the comfort of all parties as important principles, provides basic follow-up for cooperation and development between countries. The more turbulent the world situation is, the more we should cherish these precious wealth and resolutely protect the hard-won peace situation. We must always adhere to good-neighborliness and friendship, support ASEAN’s central position in East Asian regional cooperation, share security and destiny, and ensure lasting peace and stability in Asia. We should implement the global security initiative, adhere to the common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security concept, oppose the abuse of unilateral sanctions and "long-arm jurisdiction", oppose taking sides, group confrontation and the "new cold war", persist in resolving differences and disputes between countries by peaceful means, and jointly safeguard world peace and tranquility.

Second, work together to create a more dynamic growth center and inject more certainty into the recovery of the world economy. Asia has nearly 60% of the global population, nearly 40% of the total economic output and more than 30% of international trade, and is the "ballast stone" and "propeller" of the world economy. We should implement global development initiatives, seize the opportunity of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, and create new growth poles in cooperation fields such as digital economy and green economy, so as to make Asia a "power source" for world economic recovery and development. It is necessary to further promote regional economic integration, strengthen macro-policy coordination, implement the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement with high quality, actively promote the China-ASEAN Free Trade Area version 3.0 negotiations, build a regional production division system with complementary advantages and win-win cooperation, and promote the formation of a more open regional market. It is necessary to build an open world economy, jointly build the "Belt and Road" with high quality, promote the liberalization and facilitation of global trade and investment, oppose trade protectionism and "decoupling and breaking the chain", ensure the stable and smooth supply chain of the global industrial chain, and inject strong momentum into the development of the world economy.

Third, jointly expand effective ways of unity and cooperation and inject more certainty into profoundly changed global governance. Today’s world is a global village, the future and destiny of all countries are closely linked, and many global problems we face need to be discussed and solved together. Last year, Asian countries successfully hosted the BRICS Leaders’ Meeting, the East Asian Cooperation Leaders’ Meeting, the G20 Leaders’ Summit and the APEC Leaders’ Informal Meeting, which played an important role in improving global governance. We must adhere to the concept of global governance, actively participate in the reform and construction of the global governance system, firmly safeguard the international system with the United Nations at the core and the international order based on international law, continuously deepen cooperation in the fields of food, energy, eco-environment, disaster prevention and mitigation, climate change and poverty reduction, jointly send out the strong voice of the times of peace and development, jointly release the positive signal of adhering to multilateralism, and promote the development of the global governance system in a more just and rational direction.

Fourth, we should jointly promote the deepening of people-to-people exchanges and inject more certainty into the integration and symbiosis of different civilizations. Not long ago, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader proposed the Global Civilization Initiative, which provided important guidance for promoting exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations and promoting the progress of human civilization. Asia is the representative of the diversity of civilizations, and different civilizations complement each other. At the same time, Asian countries are at different stages of development, most of them are still developing countries, and each country has its own unique history, culture and specific national conditions. We are willing to work with all parties to implement the global civilization initiative and strive to create a new situation of cultural exchanges, cultural integration and people’s hearts. We must adhere to mutual respect, mutual trust, openness and tolerance, respect the development path independently chosen by all countries, and oppose the "clash of civilizations" and ideological confrontation. It is necessary to carry forward the common values of all mankind, strengthen exchanges in the fields of culture, education, health, youth and media, enhance understanding and trust through sincere communication, properly handle differences and problems by seeking common ground while reserving differences, and create a model for different civilizations to blend and coexist.

Ladies and gentlemen, friends!

As the largest developing country in the world, China’s development is of world significance. While doing our best to do our own thing well, we actively conform to the trend of the times of peace, development, cooperation and win-win, and always be a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development and a defender of the international order. China has created two miracles of rapid economic development and long-term social stability, which in itself is a contribution to the world. It can be said that in an uncertain world, the certainty of China is the mainstay of maintaining world peace and development. This was the case in the past, especially in the future and the present.

From the future, the development goals and prospects of China are certain. The The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China(CPC) held in October last year drew a blueprint for the future development of China, and clearly pointed out that by the middle of this century, the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s central task is to unite and lead the people of all ethnic groups in the country to build a socialist modernization power in an all-round way, realize the goal of the second century, and comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization. The modernization that China wants to build is a modernization with a huge population, the common prosperity of all people, the harmony between material civilization and spiritual civilization, the harmonious coexistence between man and nature, and the peaceful development path. We will never realize modernization by means of war, colonization, plunder, etc., and will definitely make more than 1.4 billion people move into a modern society by peaceful development, which will bring strong momentum to economic growth in Asia and the world. To accomplish this central task, it takes a long period of continuous struggle. In this process, no matter what changes take place in the world, we will always adhere to the drive of reform, opening up and innovation, which will not only inject new impetus and vitality into the economic development of the whole world, but also let all countries in the world share the opportunities and dividends of China’s development. I think a long-term stable and dedicated China, a down-to-earth and courageous China, and a confident, open and sharing China must be a great force for world prosperity and stability.

At present, the momentum and situation of China’s economic growth are strong. In the first two months of this year, China’s economy showed a trend of recovery, with major economic indicators such as consumption and investment improving, employment prices generally stable, market expectations improved significantly, manufacturing purchasing managers’ index continuously stood above threshold, and several international organizations raised their expectations for China’s economic growth this year. Real scenes may be more convincing than statistics. Take Hainan Island, where Boao Forum is located, as an example, the tourism industry has changed from "Golden Week" of the Spring Festival to "Golden Month" and "Golden Season", and tourists are always everywhere, and the sales of duty-free goods on outlying islands continue to be hot, which fully reflects the strong economic resilience, great potential and vitality of China, the long-term positive fundamentals of China’s economy, and the scientific and effective policies and measures for China’s economic and social development. In the next step, we will continue to adhere to the principle of stability and strive for progress, consolidate and expand the economic recovery to a good trend, and promote the sustained overall improvement of economic operation; We will organically combine the implementation of the strategy of expanding domestic demand with deepening the structural reform on the supply side, and continue to expand the market scale of China; We will introduce new measures in expanding market access, optimizing the business environment, and ensuring the landing of projects, and constantly optimize the institutional environment in which state-owned enterprises dare to do things, private enterprises dare to venture, and foreign companies dare to invest; We will effectively prevent and resolve major risks, especially to maintain the overall stability of China’s financial operation and firmly hold the bottom line that no systemic risks will occur. We are confident and capable of pushing the great ship of China’s economy to ride the wind and waves, make steady progress and make greater contributions to the development of the world economy.

Ladies and gentlemen, friends!

Another "Asian event" this year is that the 19th Asian Games will be held in Hangzhou in the golden autumn. The epidemic delayed the meeting and made us look forward to it more. From the ends of the earth to the west lake, there are many beautiful places in the open China. You are welcome to visit more. Where there is scenery, there must be a new economy, and there will be many mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation business opportunities. I believe that as long as we join hands, unite and cooperate to meet challenges, be open and inclusive and promote development, we will certainly bring more certainty to Asia and the world, and we will certainly create a better future for human society!

Finally, I wish the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2023 a complete success!

Thank you!

It’s almost the New Year, and you can’t help but know the truth behind the reminder post in the circle of friends.

  The free charging treasure sent on the road hides the Trojan horse? Does the Exit-Entry Center of the Ministry of Public Security close the system ahead of the Spring Festival holiday? "Eating melon seeds = drinking oil", are these true? At this time of the year, some rumors related to the Chinese New Year will come out one after another. Today, I will take a look at it for you. Let’s take a look.

  Travel articles

  The free charging treasure sent on the road hides the Trojan horse?

  Content:Recently, a video of a "free charging treasure hidden mystery" shot from a media account was spread on the Internet. After the "free charging treasure" in the video was dismantled, there was a hidden device that stole the user’s mobile phone information. Is this true?

  Truth:It is theoretically and practically possible for the modified charging treasure to steal the information of mobile phone users, which can be realized by installing a Trojan horse program. During my stay in Spring Festival travel rush, I hope everyone will take precautions at railway stations and various stations, and don’t be greedy for petty gains and cause greater losses.

  Is "Spring Festival traffic broadcast" a virus?

  Content:"The Spring Festival is a long way to go home. What if the traffic is not enough? Urgent notice from the public security network supervisor: If you receive a message with ‘ "Spring Festival Traffic Broadcast" traffic collection package, I have received 4G traffic waiting for you to collect it … ’ Please don’t open it, but delete it immediately. If you open it, all relevant information in your mobile phone will be stolen. This is a new virus, and its danger has been confirmed, and anti-virus software can’t remove it. " Is it true?/You don’t say.

  Truth:According to some media, local public security departments have never released the information related to the "Emergency Notice of Public Security Network Supervision". However, the police also reminded everyone: Do not trust calls and text messages of unknown origin, do not click on unknown web links, and involve money-related information such as transfer and remittance, and ignore them. If the content itself contains links, it is likely to be phishing links and needs to be vigilant.

  New year articles

  "Eating melon seeds = drinking oil", is this true?

  Content:Melon seeds are one of the necessities for every family. However, there has been a rumor on the Internet that "eating melon seeds equals drinking oil" because the fat content of melon seeds is very high. Is this true?

  Truth:Nutrition expert Ruan Guangfeng said that this statement completely exaggerated the disadvantages of melon seeds. Judging from the current research, eating melon seeds properly is actually beneficial to health. Take sunflower seeds as an example, the fat content in every 100g of sunflower seeds is about 19g, while the daily edible oil recommended by Chinese Dietary Pagoda is only 25g — 30 grams Looking at this data, many people may think that eating melon seeds is really the same as eating oil. But in fact, although there is no essential difference between the fat we ingest from melon seeds and the fat we ingest from oil, it is somewhat exaggerated to say that eating melon seeds is equivalent to drinking oil.

  Is sugar really more terrible than drugs?

  Content:Candy, cakes and other sweets always make people want to stop, especially during the Chinese New Year holiday. But in recent years, many articles and film and television works have said that eating too much sugar will make people addicted and do more harm than drugs … … Is sugar really more terrible than drugs?

  Truth:Nutrition expert Ruan Guangfeng said that eating more sugar is not good for health, but "toxicity is greater than drugs" is purely exaggerated. Judging from the current research, eating more sugar is really bad for health. However, it should be pointed out that sugar here refers to added sugar, not naturally occurring sugar in food. Added sugar refers to sugar added to food, including sugar in honey and fruit juice. However, it does not include sugar found in natural foods, such as sugar in fresh fruits and lactose in milk. After evaluating the relationship between sugar intake and health, the World Health Organization believes that excessive sugar intake will increase the risk of dental caries and obesity, and obesity may increase the risk of other diseases. In the past, we didn’t say there was something wrong with eating sugar. In fact, it was because we used to eat less, but now we eat too much. But if sugar is more harmful than drugs and addictive, it exaggerates the harm of sugar.

  People who blush when drinking generally drink more alcohol.

  Content:"When I go home for the New Year, when I meet my relatives, friends and old classmates, I always get together for dinner. Drinking during the dinner is indispensable. I often hear people say," People who blush when drinking are generally able to drink a lot, because alcohol runs all over their faces and doesn’t go to their stomachs. " Is it true?/You don’t say.

  Truth:Zeng Jing, director of the Nutrition Department of Guangdong Armed Police Corps Hospital, said that under normal circumstances, alcohol (ethanol) is metabolized into acetaldehyde by alcohol dehydrogenase in human body, then turned into acetic acid under the action of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, and finally oxidized into carbon dioxide and water. The contents of these two enzymes related to alcohol metabolism vary from person to person and are related to heredity. If the body lacks acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, the ability to decompose acetaldehyde is not strong, which will lead to acetaldehyde accumulation in the human body, and the capillaries on the face will expand, eventually leading to blushing. In fact, people who blush when drinking are not good drinkers. We should control the amount and degree of drinking, and don’t drink too fast, so as to control the process of alcohol entering the body and gain more time for body metabolism.

  It doesn’t matter if you can’t keep your mouth shut, as long as you exercise more afterwards?

  Content:It’s inevitable to eat and drink when you go home for the New Year. It doesn’t matter if you can’t control your mouth, as long as you exercise more afterwards?

  Truth:If you choose to treat yourself with a high-sugar milkshake and a muffin or other "healthy" snacks after exercise, your weight loss plan will not be completed in nine cases out of ten. If you can’t change your diet structure and only place your weight loss hopes on exercise, you are likely to become a healthy and strong fat man — — You are likely to gain some muscles, increase endurance and become healthier, but you still can’t shake off the numbers on the scale. Face the facts, people who want to lose weight! Without changing bad eating habits, you can’t lose weight by exercising alone. Exercise is important, but if you want to lose weight, you need a healthy diet, which is rich in enough fruits and vegetables, healthy fat and protein.
