Recently, many colleges and universities across the country put forward the idea of "thoroughly cleaning up the stock of papers on academic misconduct". The Paper noted that the General Office of the Ministry of Science and Technology had previously issued the "Notice on Self-inspection of Academic Misconduct in Papers and Cleaning Up the Phenomenon of Nomination" on April 27th.

　　According to the website of the Institute of Science and Technology Development of Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture on June 7, according to the requirements and unified arrangements of the Notice of Beijing Municipal Education Commission on Carrying out the Self-inspection of Academic Misconduct and the Cleaning of Nominal Phenomenon of Papers, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture conducted a one-month (June 2023) self-inspection and cleaning, requiring the implementation of the main responsibility of secondary units, thoroughly cleaning up the stock of academic misconduct papers and curbing the increase.

　　Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture proposed that the self-inspection and clean-up targets of all secondary units are academic papers published by teachers and students with Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture as the signature unit since January 1, 2018.

　　According to the website of the School of Humanities of Hangzhou Normal University on June 6, the Scientific Research Office of Hangzhou Normal University issued a notice on May 22, saying: According to the work arrangement and requirements of the Notice of Zhejiang Science and Technology Department and Zhejiang Education Department on Self-examination of Academic Misconduct and Cleaning Up the Phenomenon of Nominal Papers, the school is now carrying out self-examination and cleaning up the phenomenon of academic misconduct. The object of self-examination and clean-up is: academic papers published by teachers and students with Hangzhou Normal University as the signature unit since January 1, 2018, especially papers that have been included in personnel assessment or received scientific research performance awards.

　　The Research Office of Hangzhou Normal University said that it is necessary to implement the main responsibilities of all secondary units, thoroughly clean up the stock of papers on academic misconduct, and curb the increase.

　　According to the website of the Science and Technology Department of Chengdu University of Information Science and Technology on June 2nd, and in accordance with the requirements of the Notice of Sichuan Provincial Department of Education of Sichuan Provincial Department of Science and Technology on Self-examination of Academic Misconduct in Papers and Cleaning Up the Phenomenon of Nomination, Chengdu University of Information Science and Technology carried out self-examination of Academic Misconduct in Papers and cleaning up the phenomenon of Nomination. The time range of self-inspection and cleaning is "since January 1, 2018". The goal is to compact the management rights and responsibilities of colleges (centers, departments) and relevant departments, thoroughly clean up the stock of academic misconduct papers, and resolutely curb incremental risks.

　　In addition, Zhejiang Ningbo University, Sichuan Xihua Normal University, Guizhou Zunyi Medical University, etc. also recently proposed in the notice that the stock of academic misconduct papers should be thoroughly cleaned up to curb the increase. In addition, universities such as Liaoning University and Southern Medical University have recently proposed to "further reduce the stock of academic misconduct papers and focus on curbing the increase" and "reduce the stock of academic misconduct papers and focus on curbing the increase".

　　The Paper noted that the Notice of the General Office of the Ministry of Science and Technology on Self-examination of Academic Misconduct in Papers and Cleaning Up the Phenomenon of Nomination, recently forwarded by the Science and Technology Bureau of Yuncheng City and the Science and Technology Department of Guangdong Institute of Technology, showed that the notice was issued by the General Office of the Ministry of Science and Technology on April 27th.

　　In the notice, the General Office of the Ministry of Science and Technology stated that, in accordance with the relevant work arrangements, on the basis of the special work of self-examination and nominal cleaning of papers in subordinate universities and central-level scientific and technological institutions, it was decided to carry out self-examination and nominal cleaning of papers in local scientific research institutes and universities for a period of three months. Through self-examination and clean-up, the main responsibility of the unit will be compacted, the stock of academic misconduct papers will be further reduced, efforts will be made to curb the increase, and researchers will be guided to strengthen the awareness of scientific research integrity, adhere to the bottom line of scientific research integrity, and promote the formation of a good scientific research ecology.

　　The General Office of the Ministry of Science and Technology proposed that researchers from local scientific research institutes, universities and other units should be organized to carry out self-examination on academic misconduct and nominal clean-up of academic papers published since January 1, 2018. Papers that have been investigated may not be included in the scope. The papers that meet the scope of self-examination and clean-up should be self-examined one by one, with emphasis on the following aspects: (1) Whether there is plagiarism, plagiarism and repeated publication; (2) Whether the paper has forged the correspondent (e-mail, unit), forged or manipulated peer review, etc.; (3) Whether the pictures and data of the paper are forged, fabricated or tampered with, and whether one picture is multi-purpose and selectively used; (4) Whether the signed author really participates in relevant research and thesis writing, and whether there is any situation of buying and selling, writing on behalf of others, or submitting papers on behalf of others; (5) Whether the experimental research data is obtained by the author’s real research, and whether there is any situation of purchasing experimental research data without real research; (6) Whether the author of the paper’s signature has made no substantial academic contribution to the paper, there is a nominal phenomenon.

　　The general office of the Ministry of Science and Technology said that if problems are found in self-examination, researchers should report to their own units in time and take remedial measures such as corrigendum and draft withdrawal. In accordance with the provisions of Article 34 of the Rules for the Investigation and Handling of Dishonesty in Scientific Research, the circumstances that are dealt with lightly may be dealt with lightly according to the regulations; Those who conceal or fail to report or make false reports shall be severely dealt with in accordance with Article 35 of the Rules for the Investigation and Handling of Dishonesty in Scientific Research and publicly notified.

　　CCTV News:According to the website of China Consumers Association, on August 2, China Consumers Association released an analysis of complaints received by the National Consumers Association in the first half of 2024. According to the statistics of complaints received by the National Consumers Association, in the first half of 2024, the National Consumers Association accepted 782,794 consumer complaints, up 27.21% year-on-year, and solved 563,346 complaints, with a complaint resolution rate of 71.97%, saving consumers 447.7 million yuan in economic losses.

　　Table 5: Top Ten Services with Complaints (Unit: Pieces)

　　Second, the complaint hot spot analysis and typical cases

　　(1) The number of complaints about mobile phones increased significantly. Mobile phone is an indispensable tool in people’s daily life. In the first half of the year, the number of complaints about mobile phones was 23,671, a year-on-year increase of 65.54%, among which problems such as quality, after-sales service and false propaganda were more prominent. First, there are many disputes over after-sales service of folding screen mobile phones. During the warranty period of the folding screen mobile phone, there are problems such as liquid leakage and flower screen on the inner screen, but the merchants do not guarantee the mobile phone on the grounds of artificial damage, paint loss and wear, which leads to disputes. Second, online shopping merchants use refurbished machines to pretend to be new mobile phones for sale. After consumers find out, the platform or merchants only support returns and refunds, and do not assume the responsibility of "returning one and losing three". Third, there are a large number of complaints about the quality of mobile phones. The problems reflected by consumer complaints mainly include battery bulging, serious fever, stuck mobile phone, frequent restart and motherboard damage.

　　Case 1. On June 28th, 2024, a consumer, Mr. Liu, complained about a mobile phone brand through the platform of Consumers Association 315. On August 15th, 2023, he bought the first installment of the "Moon Shadow Black" folding screen mobile phone in the brand’s self-operated mall. In May, 2024, when the inner screen of the mobile phone was unfolded, it was found that it could not be displayed normally, and it was suspected that the inner screen was broken along the rotating shaft. On June 9, I went to the brand maintenance center for repair, and the staff refused to guarantee the mobile phone still under warranty on the grounds that "the painted area exceeded 0.3mm2". Consumers think that slight paint loss is the trace of normal use of mobile phones, and refusing the warranty on this ground is completely unilaterally stipulated by the manufacturer, which is equivalent to actually shortening the warranty period to several months, which is unacceptable under the overlord clause.

　　Case 2. On June 18th, 2024, the consumer Mr. Lu complained through the 315 platform of the Consumers Association. On June 15th, 2024, he spent 7340 yuan to buy Apple’s 14pormax mobile phone in a third-party shop of a shopping platform. When Mr. Lu consulted before purchasing, the merchant said that the mobile phone was brand new and unopened, and promised "one fake and ten penalties". On June 17th, after receiving the courier, the consumer found that the package was back-sealed, the seal glue of the packaging box had traces of secondary packaging, and there were use stains in the packaging box. In Apple official website, it was found that the mobile phone was activated in October 2022, and there was a usage record on June 15, 2024 in the mobile phone. The professional testing assistant showed that the battery had been replaced. Contact the merchant, and the merchant denies that it is a refurbished machine. Consumers believe that the business is fraudulent, and the complaint requires "one refund and three compensation" according to Article 55 of the Consumer Protection Law.

　　[Consumer Association’s Opinion] The Provisions on the Responsibility for the Repair, Replacement and Return of Mobile Phone Goods clearly stipulates that the three guarantees of the mobile phone host are valid for one year. However, if sellers and producers make three guarantees that are more conducive to safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of consumers and are stricter than these provisions, they should fulfill them according to law. Within the validity period of the three guarantees, if there is a quality problem with the mobile phone host, the repairer will repair it free of charge. According to the above regulations, if the mobile phone host has related problems within one year or within the three-guarantee period promised by the operator, it should be repaired for consumers free of charge. If the operator thinks that the mobile phone does not meet the conditions for free maintenance, it shall bear the burden of proof. According to the relevant provisions of Article 26 of the Law on the Protection of Consumer Rights and Interests, operators have made unfair and unreasonable provisions to consumers, such as "no warranty for the appearance of mobile phones during the three-guarantee period", such as excluding or restricting consumers’ rights, reducing or exempting operators’ responsibilities and aggravating consumers’ responsibilities, and the relevant provisions should be invalid.

　　(2) The irregular operation of telecommunications services has been repeatedly prohibited. In the first half of the year, the number of complaints about telecommunications services was 31,437, a year-on-year increase of 92.56%. Non-standard business practices in the telecommunications industry are still repeatedly banned, and related consumption pain points and difficult problems have not been eradicated, and various problems still occur frequently. First, broadband services are easy to open but difficult to cancel. For example, when broadband is installed, it is not informed of the termination restrictions, but a high penalty is charged when it is cancelled, and some even unilaterally extend the contract term after the contract expires, making it more difficult for consumers to cancel. Second, the package upgrade is easy to downgrade. Consumers can change more expensive packages through APP, phone calls, text messages, etc., but when reducing packages, they need to contact and wait for the Commissioner to handle them. Some consumers even encounter online customer service and offline business halls to kick the ball in turn. Third, the problem of unfair marketing is prominent. Under the guise of free trial, free upgrade and free gift, operators’ salesmen deliberately hide or obscure key information such as minimum consumption, contract term, automatic renewal fee and liquidated damages to induce consumers to open paid services. Fourth, the professional ability of customer service needs to be improved. Some customer service staff have concealed, perfunctory behaviors and even contradictory explanations when answering consumer inquiries or handling related businesses.

　　Case 1. On June 26th, 2024, a consumer, Ms. Zhu, complained to a communication company through the platform of Consumers Association 315. She contacted the customer service of the company in early June, 2024, and requested to apply for 8 yuan package online. The consumer’s number was not bound by any other unexpired package. The company’s customer service made various excuses, saying that it had no authority and asked the Commissioner to handle it for consumers. The Commissioner also said that consumers should go to the offline business hall to handle it, but consumers didn’t have time to go offline specifically. As of the time of complaint, the consumer has communicated with the customer service for no less than 10 times, and it has not been successfully handled. Consumers question why the upgrade package can be processed online at the beginning, and the reduction package has to go offline. They think this is an unfair and unreasonable requirement, which restricts consumers’ freedom to handle business in disguise and deliberately sets unreasonable thresholds.

　　Case 2. On June 23, 2024, Mr. Lan complained to a communication company through the platform of Consumers Association 315, saying that he contacted the customer service of the communication company on March 22, 2024, and because he no longer used the company’s broadband service for the reason of moving, the customer service replied to the broadband service on the APP by clicking unsubscribe and disassembling. The consumer then unsubscribed and disassembled the machine according to the operation, but there was no SMS notification or customer service phone reply. It was not until June 20 that the bill was checked that the unsubscribe was not processed at all, and the fee was still deducted every month. After receiving the complaint, the communication company contacted the consumer to make a settlement, and returned the function fee 160 yuan generated during the non-cancellation period (March to June) to the consumer.

　　[Opinions of Consumers Association] Telecommunication service is closely related to consumers’ daily life, and it is one of the important services for people’s livelihood. Relevant operators should strengthen their sense of social responsibility, improve their customer service ability and quality, standardize their own business behavior, and pay enough attention to the problems reflected by consumers and give timely feedback. In 2022, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the Notice on Further Regulating Telecommunications Services, which called for optimizing publicity and display, facilitating business change and cancellation, standardizing telephone and SMS marketing, and improving port number transfer services. It is suggested that the relevant authorities should strengthen the supervision and governance of all kinds of violations of consumers’ rights and interests in the telecommunications industry and implement the provisions of relevant documents.

　　(3) The marketing of member services needs to be standardized. Member service is an important means for operators in various industries to attract and retain consumers, but the irregular behavior in the operation process has caused many consumer complaints. First, modify the membership system and rules at will. Operators frequently adjust the service content of members, and adjust the rights and interests of old members on the grounds of "expiration of welfare period". If old members want to use the original functions, they need to upgrade and buy more expensive members. Second, the membership rules are complicated. Operators set up multiple and complicated membership systems such as membership, svip, AI membership and big membership, and set up various packages under different members, so it is difficult for consumers to find out the differences in service contents among different members. Third, automatic renewal is enabled by default and it is difficult to cancel. Some member service providers set automatic renewal as the default option without the consent of consumers, which leads to many steps to turn off automatic renewal and difficult to hide the page. The fourth is the issue of false propaganda. Such as exaggerating the content of membership services and concealing the conditions for restricting the use. Fifth, the risk of third-party membership service is high. Some consumers buy member services at low prices through third-party platforms, but the service period is forced to be terminated early by the member service provider because the third-party merchants "run away".

　　Case 1. On June 20th, 2024, Mr. Zhang complained about an office software company through the platform of Consumers Association 315. Mr. Zhang said that the members of the company were previously divided into ordinary members, rice husk members and svip, and consumers bought svip. Around October last year, consumers found that ordinary members and rice husk members were gone, ordinary members were upgraded to svip, and svip could be upgraded to svip pro, but it needed to be converted according to the new price. After the conversion, consumers’ membership time was reduced by one month. On the day of the complaint, the consumer found that svip pro was cancelled again, and became a member of svip and AI and a big member. If they want to use related functions, they have to upgrade to a big member.

　　Case 2. On May 25th, 2024, Mr. Hu complained about a video member company through the platform of Consumers Association 315. On March 15th this year, Mr. Hu bought a one-year membership service of a video member company on a shopping platform, the amount was 138 yuan, and the expiration date of the membership should be March 14th, 2025. However, more than a month after purchase, consumers found that the purchased membership service was unusable, and after repeated login and refresh, they all prompted the members to expire. The consumer contacted the seller of the e-commerce platform and found that the seller had run away. Consumers complained to the platform, and the platform replied "urging the seller" or "waiting patiently", and the problem has not been solved.

　　Case 3. On March 18th, 2024, Mr. Ji complained about a company through the platform of Consumers Association 315. On October 23, 2023, he met a salesperson of a company to promote VIP membership cards at the Three Gorges Airport in Yichang, Hubei. The company’s sales staff told consumers that they are a professional ticketing company that cooperates with airlines. The price is cheaper than a booking platform commonly used by consumers, and some VIP lounges at the airport are also provided free of charge. But you need to deposit 1698 yuan in advance, and you can deduct it from the deposit in the future. The consumer then paid 1698 yuan to buy a membership card. Since then, consumers have booked seven flights on the company’s platform and found that it is seriously inconsistent with the propaganda of the sales staff at that time. The first is the price. The ticket price of the same flight on this platform is more expensive than other platforms. Secondly, the pre-stored expense deduction only deducts 20 yuan at a time, which is completely different from the full deduction of consumption expectation, and the salesman deliberately hides these key information when selling. Mr. Ji complained that he wanted to return the remaining unused 1468 yuan.

　　[Opinions of Consumers Association] Doing a good job in protecting consumers’ rights and interests is the key to the sustained and healthy development of member economy. A complex and changing member system may bring certain profits to enterprises in a short time, but in the long run, it will damage the reputation of enterprises and consumer trust. While pursuing profits, member service providers should respect and protect consumers’ right to know and choose independently, provide clear, transparent and concise member service systems and rules, and truly take consumers as the center. Consumers should pay attention to whether the option of automatic renewal is checked by default when purchasing membership services. After purchase, you can check the automatic renewal status in your account and cancel the unnecessary automatic renewal option in time.

　　(D) Shared services should focus on enhancing the consumer experience. Bike-sharing, shared charging treasure and other shared products improve the convenience of consumers’ daily life, but there are also some problems in the use process, which affect consumers’ experience. First, the shared products are not returned smoothly. Due to inaccurate display of business information and untimely status update, it is difficult for consumers to find the correct return place after using bike-sharing and shared charging treasure, and they are forced to extend the charging time. Second, the failure of bike-sharing affects the safety of use. Consumers reported that when using the bike-sharing, they encountered brake failure, improper handlebars, damaged pedals and other phenomena, and there were potential safety hazards. Third, there are frequent disputes over deduction. Consumers mainly report that they have been charged for not using the shared products (such as not unlocking successfully after using bike-sharing code scanning and not popping up after using shared charging treasure code scanning), or have not stopped charging after returning the shared products.

　　Case 1. On March 17th, 2024, Ms. Lin complained through the platform of Consumers Association 315. At 3: 21 pm on March 9, 2024, she borrowed a charging treasure from a Beijing West Road store in an express hotel, and returned it at about 4 pm. Since she never received the deduction information after returning it, she called the hotel customer service on the same day to feedback this question. The hotel customer service asked the consumer to go to the charging treasure customer service for feedback, but the consumer did not find the order on the major charging treasure applets. So the consumer called the hotel again, and the hotel customer service said that it would feedback this question. It was not until the day of the complaint that the consumer received the charging treasure deduction information, and the consumer was deducted for two days. The consumer called the customer service again, and the customer service feedback waited patiently. The consumer then applied for a refund on WeChat but was rejected by the hotel. After contact with Huaqiao Economic Development Zone Branch of Kunshan Consumer Rights Protection Committee, Jiangsu Province, the merchant has refunded the fee to the consumer.

　　Case 2. Consumer Mr. Su complained through the 315 platform of the Consumers Association that he recently unlocked a bicycle of a bike-sharing enterprise by scanning the code in Jinan, Shandong Province, and immediately found that the bicycle chain was damaged and could not be ridden, and then immediately locked the bicycle. As a result, the consumer was prompted that the bicycle was not in the specified parking spot, and 5 yuan dispatching fee should be charged to the consumer. So the consumer contacted the company’s online customer service and suggested that the relevant fees should not be charged. Although the company’s online customer service recognized the consumer’s point of view, it said that it could only give a five-day cycling card. Unable to accept this solution, the consumer called the company’s telephone customer service three times, and the responses of the three customers were the same as those of the online customer service. One customer service directly hung up after the communication failed. Consumer complaints require the company to apologize and refund the dispatching fee.

　　[Opinions of Consumers Association] Operators related to shared products and services should strengthen the daily maintenance of shared products, and timely repair and replace products with quality problems and safety risks to reduce the occurrence of failures and maximize the personal safety of consumers; According to the consumer’s usage, the placement position and placement point are reasonably optimized to improve the consumer’s experience; Improve the communication channels of consumer complaints and establish a benign interaction mechanism to achieve a win-win situation for corporate profits and consumer convenience.

　　(E) Online shopping "short weight and short weight" occurs from time to time. The shortage of online shopping products may not only make consumers suffer economic losses, but also affect the image and reputation of related operators and platforms in the eyes of consumers. The main problems reflected by consumers are: First, the weight of goods is insufficient. Some merchants deliberately blur the net weight and gross weight when marking the weight of goods, or include packaging, accessories and fillers in the total amount. The actual weight of goods received by consumers is far lower than the advertised weight. Second, the quantity of quantitatively packaged goods does not match the actual quantity. There is a big gap between the actual number of quantitatively packaged goods sold by some merchants online and the number of packaging labels and the allowable shortage of regulations. Third, the size of online shopping TV has shrunk. Some operators who specialize in selling cottage brands and small-brand TVs through online channels have the problem of virtual standard screen size. After consumers find out, businesses not only do not bear the responsibility of false propaganda, but consumers also have to bear the freight when returning goods.

　　Case 1. Recently, Ms. Weng, a consumer, complained about a take-away platform through the Consumer Association’s 315 platform, reflecting that she bought a box of salted duck in a shop on the take-away platform. The product page described that the weight was 701g. After receiving the salted duck, the consumer weighed it unopened and found that the total weight was only 358g. The consumer communicated with the store through the take-away platform, and the seller said that the duck was reprocessed and made dry, and did not admit that it was short of two pounds. Later, the product details page was changed, and the description at the time of ordering was changed from 701g to 501g.

　　Case 2. Recently, Mr. Xu, a consumer, complained about an e-commerce platform through the Consumer Association 315 platform, where he bought garbage bags. The merchants advertised the goods on the product page in five volumes, with 20 pieces in each volume, totaling 100 pieces. Results After receiving it, consumers found that there were only 12 in each roll, and only 60 in five rolls, which was quite different from the description, lacking 40%. Consumer complaints require businesses to "refund one and compensate three" according to the provisions of the Consumer Protection Law on punitive damages, and less than 500 yuan is calculated as 500 yuan.

　　Case 3. On March 27th, 2024, the consumer Mr. Li complained about an e-commerce platform through the Consumer Association 315 platform. On March 4th, 2024, he bought a brand of 55-inch LCD TV in a third-party store of the e-commerce platform. After receiving the goods, the ruler was only 48 inches, and the manufacturer’s name in the 3C certification provided by the merchant’s customer service was not the same as that in the certificate in the TV packaging box. The consumer consulted the brand manufacturer, and the manufacturer said that the company only produced computer tablets, never produced televisions, and did not authorize others to use its trademarks. Consumers found on the referee document network that the manufacturer had trademark infringement lawsuits with a number of well-known TV brands in the 3C certification provided by the merchant customer service, and was fined heavily for losing the case. Consumers said that the TV set was still sold on the e-commerce platform when they complained, and that the e-commerce platform failed to review the counterfeit trademarks and false propaganda behaviors of merchants, and did not take necessary measures to require the e-commerce platform to bear the responsibility of "returning one and losing three".

　　[Opinions of Consumers Association] Recently, the General Administration of Market Supervision issued the Notice on Further Deepening the Comprehensive Improvement of the Market Order of Electronic Pricing Scales, focusing on outstanding issues such as "short weight and short weight" and carrying out comprehensive improvement of the market order of electronic pricing scales nationwide. Through rectification, the number of complaints related to "short weight and short weight" in the offline market has declined, but related problems in the field of online shopping still occur from time to time. The two problems of short weight and short weight of online shopping products have strong concealment. If consumers do not have certain life experience or do not weigh, check and verify after receiving goods, it is difficult to find related problems. It is suggested that the relevant regulatory authorities increase the spot check and supervision of the problem of "short weight and short weight" in online sales of goods. Remind consumers to choose regular businesses with good reputation as far as possible, and avoid coveting cheap goods that are obviously lower than the market price. Operators should carefully verify the actual size or weight of the goods sold, accurately mark them, and prevent misleading consumers.

　　(VI) The protection of financial consumers needs to be strengthened. Financial services in modern society have profoundly affected all aspects of people’s lives, and consumers’ food, clothing, housing, transportation, daily necessities are inseparable from the support of financial services. In the first half of the year, consumer complaints about financial services mainly included: First, the loan collection behavior was not standardized. Some online lending companies illegally collect information such as mobile phone address book when consumers borrow money. After the borrower is overdue, online lending companies will "bomb" relatives, friends, colleagues and other contacts in their address book by SMS or telephone. Second, online lending companies charge usury in disguise. Some online lending companies use low interest rates as bait to induce consumers to borrow money. After borrowing, consumers find that there are various fees such as intermediary fees, guarantee fees, membership fees and equity fees, and the actual interest rate is much higher than the statutory maximum interest rate. Third, false marketing of insurance has been repeatedly prohibited. The performance is that the sales staff of insurance companies exaggerate the scope of protection and conceal the refusal to pay compensation.

　　Case 1. Recently, Mr. Li complained about a financial company through the platform of Consumers Association 315. He received a sales call from the company on May 19th, and the salesman said that he could borrow money from him to ease the economic pressure. With Mr. after li, he logged into the company’s APP to apply for a loan of 10,000 yuan. When borrowing, the bill showed that he would pay back 1,008.99 yuan every month and repay it in 12 months. Mr. after li found that the down payment became 1,756.99 yuan. Mr. Li contacted the customer service of the company. The customer service said that there were membership rights fees in the first three periods, and the rights fees in each period were more than 700 yuan, with the first repayment of 1756.99 yuan, the second repayment of 1744.99 yuan and the third repayment of 1732.91 yuan. Mr. Li said that he didn’t sign any rights and interests at that time, and he didn’t open a membership. If he had known there was such an invisible fee, he wouldn’t have used it. Moreover, the bill at that time was only 1008.99 yuan, and the so-called membership rights and interests fee of more than 700 yuan was not shown. Mr. Li complained that he wanted to cancel the membership fee.

　　Case 2. On June 23, 2024, Mr. Zhu complained to an insurance company through the platform of Consumers Association 315. In March 2018, Mr. Zhu saw the insurance company promoting the "Good Medical Insurance" project, claiming that it was free of compensation. The sales staff specially emphasized that all unexpected medical expenses could be paid. At that time, consumers felt that they could buy it in an emergency. On June 7, 2024, Mr. Zhu suffered a comminuted fracture of his palm due to an accidental fall. He was hospitalized for emergency surgery and chose the nearest hospital for treatment. In the follow-up claim, the insurance company said that the hospital where Mr. Zhu went to see a doctor was not a company-approved hospital. Mr. Zhu said that at that time, the insurance company publicized that it was free of compensation, and did not remind which hospitals could not settle claims. Consumer complaints require insurance companies to pay for medical treatment, lost work and follow-up maintenance costs.

　　[Opinions of Consumers Association] The Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee decided to improve the mechanism of protecting financial consumers and cracking down on illegal financial activities. In recent years, financial supervision departments have intensified their efforts to deal with such problems as violent collection, usury and false insurance propaganda, but related problems have still not been eliminated. It is suggested that financial supervision departments and financial institutions should control the problems of violent collection and usury from the source, appropriately increase the supply of resources of financial institutions such as banks by opening the front door and blocking the back door, improve the quality of financial services, and allow more consumers in need to obtain financial loans and other services through formal channels.

　　(7) The popularity of complaints related to concerts has not diminished. Since last year, the performance market has continued to be hot, and the number of complaints in related fields has been at a high level. First, the ticketing platform and the rights and obligations of consumers are not equal. For example, the ticketing platform stipulates that consumers need to bear the fare loss for their own reasons; However, if the performance is postponed or cancelled due to the organizers and actors, the ticketing platform can unilaterally terminate the contract and keep silent about the liability for breach of contract. Second, the ticketing platform sells tickets for performances, but it is not responsible for the obstruction of vision. The ticketing platform did not clearly indicate that the corresponding seats were blocked when selling tickets. Consumers later reported to the ticketing platform that they wanted to refund part of the fees, but the ticketing platform refused to bear the corresponding responsibilities. Third, the consumers’ right to know is not guaranteed. Consumers can’t know the specific seats when purchasing tickets, and some consumers report that the seats purchased first at the same price are worse than those purchased later. Fourth, the ticketing platform can change the seat fare at will. Consumers choose high-priced seats when purchasing tickets, but after issuing tickets, they find that they are arranged in low-priced areas. After consumers raised questions, the platform changed the low-end price area to high-end price. Fifth, disputes over refund are frequent. Consumers report that the refund fee charged by the platform is too high, and the refund rules of different performances of the same organizer are inconsistent.

　　Case 1. On April 29th, 2024, a consumer, Mr. Liu, complained about a ticketing platform through the 315 platform of Consumers Association. On January 29th, he bought two vip tickets for a star’s Tianjin concert on the ticketing platform, and the seats were No.1 and No.2, Row 6, vip2 District. Arriving at the scene, I found that there were three staff members standing in the chair in front of this seat, taking photos and videos, which seriously blocked the performance. Mr. Liu gave feedback to the staff on the spot, and the staff said that this position is a fixed position and needs video recording, which cannot be avoided. Consumers pointed out that this position is the most expensive ticket price in the audience. If this position must be videotaped, it should not be sold, or the "bad sight area" should be marked before the sale, but there is no hint. Afterwards, consumers complained to the ticketing platform four or five times, all of which indicated that they could not solve it. Consumer complaints demand compensation from the ticketing platform.

　　Case 2. On June 28th, 2024, the consumer Mr. Lu complained about a ticketing platform through the 315 platform of the Consumers Association. On June 18th, he bought two Nanjing concerts of a celebrity on a ticketing platform, and the seat area he chose for the purchase was 580 yuan stall. The consumer bought two tickets, totaling 160 yuan. As a result, when the ticket was issued, Mr. Lu found that the price of the seat area on the ticket was actually 380 yuan. Mr. Lu contacted the customer service of the ticketing platform to solve this problem. As a result, after consumers waited for a period of time, the final solution given by the ticketing platform turned out to be to change the original 380 yuan seating area into a 580 yuan stall.

　　[Consumer Association’s opinion] The ticketing platform should make a clear seat map of the venue, and mark the seats with blocked vision to protect consumers’ right to know and choose. If the ticketing platform can’t provide the venue seat map and mark the blocked seats, consumers who have purchased the blocked seats should be compensated accordingly. The provision that the performance ticketing platform is not responsible for the delay or cancellation of the project, but the consumers should bear the liability for breach of contract for returning tickets and exchanging tickets for their own reasons not only does not conform to the basic principles of fairness and reasonableness in civil contracts, but also does not conform to the principle of preferential protection for consumers in consumer contracts. It is suggested that the ticketing platform should refer to relevant foreign practices and open online ticket transfer channels on the ticketing platform. For consumers who are unable to attend the event for personal reasons, tickets can be transferred to other consumers in real-name registration system in a digital way with the original ticket price not higher than the original ticket price through the platform, so as to reduce disputes arising from refund.

　　(8) The dispute over the refund of fees for teaching and training services continues. Complaints about teaching and training services have not diminished, among which contract problems and false propaganda account for a relatively high proportion. First, training institutions do not refund fees as promised. Some training institutions related to further education, employment and qualification examinations claim that they can get a full refund if they fail the examination. However, when consumers who fail the examination ask for a refund, the training institutions have delayed the refund for various reasons. The second is the false promise of training institutions. For example, training institutions publicly claim that they can pass exams, get certificates, take part-time jobs, make money, etc., and some even claim that they can obtain various certificates by paying money without attending classes. Third, the training institutions are mixed. The actual teaching level and publicity of some training institutions are very different. Some institutions’ teaching courses are all recorded and broadcast videos, and some even have no qualifications for running schools. Fourth, training institutions induce consumers to apply for "training loans", and subsequent institutions run away, and consumers have to bear loan debts.

　　Case 1. In April 2024, Ms. Pan, a consumer in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, complained about an educational institution in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province through the 315 platform of the Consumers Association. In March 2022, Ms. Pan paid 15,300 yuan for training in this institution, and the institution promised to ensure that Ms. Pan got the undergraduate diploma and degree certificate of a university within two years. However, two years later, Ms. Pan only got a diploma and no degree certificate. The agency explained that it was due to force majeure such as "epidemic situation" and national policy regulation, so it was impossible to obtain a degree certificate. Ms. Pan was very angry and said that she already had a bachelor’s degree certificate. The reason why she chose this educational institution was that she claimed that she could get a degree certificate. It took two years and cost 15,300 yuan, but she didn’t get what she really wanted. She asked for a refund of all the fees and demanded mental compensation. After several rounds of mediation by Shijiazhuang Consumer Protection Committee, the operator finally refunded all tuition fees and miscellaneous fees of 13,300 yuan to consumers.

　　Case 2. Recently, Ms. Li, a consumer in Guiyang, Guizhou, complained about a training institution in Hubei through the 315 platform of Consumers Association. The so-called "enrollment teacher" of the institution called Ms. Li to introduce the education upgrading training, and induced Ms. Li to sign up impulsively by including intensive training before the exam. Because the tuition fee is 6980 yuan, which Ms. Li can’t afford, the institution induces Ms. Li to apply for a teaching loan. After paying the money, Ms. Li found that such a high tuition fee turned out to be just a "class teacher" WeChat and a recording and broadcasting software selling courseware. She felt that she was seriously deceived and asked the "enrollment teacher" to drop out of class. The other party has been persuading not to drop out of class. Seeing Ms. Li’s firm attitude, she said that she could not drop out and continued to fool Ms. Li into paying off the loan to freeze the class. Ms. Li complained that she wanted to terminate the loan and refund the fee.

　　[Opinions of Consumers Association] Article 20 of the Law on the Protection of Consumers’ Rights and Interests stipulates that the information provided by operators to consumers about the quality, performance, use and expiration date of goods or services shall be true and comprehensive, and no false or misleading propaganda shall be made. The operators of training institutions claim that the so-called "passing exams, obtaining certificates, taking part-time jobs and making money" is not only suspected of falsely propagating illegal activities, but may seriously constitute a crime. It is suggested that relevant departments strengthen law enforcement and investigate illegal activities of illegal training institutions. According to China’s Academic Degrees Law and educational policies related to academic degrees, the qualifications, conditions, procedures and management of degree awarding are clearly defined. Remind consumers that they should study hard to obtain corresponding degrees and certificates, and illegal purchase of academic degrees and certificates may be "both human and financial".

　　(9) Online game suspension caused many complaints. There are many incidents of online games stopping service, and the resulting consumer disputes have become a difficult problem that puzzles consumers. The main problems reflected by consumers are as follows: First, delete the consumer data account after stopping taking the service. Consumers spend a lot of money in online games to exchange game coins, game props, equipment, cards and other virtual properties, but all of them are deleted because online games stop serving, so consumers’ virtual properties are lost. Second, the compensation scheme for stopping taking medicine is unreasonable. After online games are stopped, game operators often give so-called compensation schemes unilaterally. Consumers can only recharge the unconsumed virtual currency and spend it at a discount in other games under the company, while virtual property has no compensation. Third, there are overlord clauses in online game agreements. If the agreement stipulates that the online game operator has the right to terminate the game service according to the actual situation, and does not have to bear the responsibility.

　　Case 1. On May 4th, 2024, a consumer, Ms. Xu, complained about an Internet company through the platform of Consumers Association 315. On April 17th, the operation team of the company suddenly announced that the game was stopped and all data was deleted. The announcement issued by it stipulates: "Once you participate in the compensation activities, it will be regarded as an approval of the compensation/replacement scheme. If the user does not participate in the compensation activities within the above-mentioned time limit, it will be regarded as an automatic waiver of the right to compensation/replacement. " There is no prior consultation on the way to change and compensate the service, and attempts to exclude consumers’ rights to claim damages through this standard clause. For the unused virtual currency, the compensation mentioned in the announcement is only the virtual currency gift packages of other games owned by the company, which are not returned in legal tender or other ways accepted by users in accordance with relevant regulations, and the above format terms are used to threaten and induce players to accept the compensation scheme formulated unilaterally to reduce their own responsibilities.

　　Case 2. On June 17, 2024, Ms. Mo complained to an Internet company through the platform of Consumers Association 315. She started to play the game operated by the company on December 4, 2022, and as of June 9, 2024, the total consumption in the game was 9924 yuan. Recently, the company’s official account suddenly announced the suspension of operation. The announcement indicated that the game would be closed on June 18th and the player’s account data and character data would be deleted. The announcement claimed that the paid tokens not consumed in the game could only be compensated by redeeming other game packages owned by the company, and said that if the user did not participate in the compensation within the time limit, it would be regarded as an automatic waiver of compensation/replacement rights. Consumers think that this compensation method has not been communicated with the players, and it has not been recognized by the players, and the players have no choice. This behavior is no different from buying and selling hard, which seriously infringes on the rights and interests of players. Consumers complained for monetary compensation.

　　[Opinions of Consumers Association] Article 26 of the Law on the Protection of Consumer Rights and Interests stipulates that business operators shall not make unfair and unreasonable provisions to consumers, such as excluding or restricting consumers’ rights, reducing or exempting business operators’ responsibilities, and aggravating consumers’ responsibilities, in the form of standard clauses. Some online game operators take advantage of market dominance or dominant position to give themselves the right to terminate their game services at will without taking responsibility through game agreements, reduce their own responsibilities and increase consumers’ responsibilities, which violates consumer fairness. Such "overlord clauses" should be invalid. Online game operators unilaterally stop service, in addition to issuing a notice of stopping service according to law, they should also bear the corresponding liability for breach of contract and take reasonable, necessary and timely measures to protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers. Virtual currency, such as game currency, which consumers recharge, belongs to consumers’ prepaid expenses in essence. For the game service that is still within the performance period, it should be compensated or compensated in legal tender or other ways acceptable to consumers based on factors such as duration, items and amount.

　　During the National Day, prices are expected to continue to operate smoothly. The National Development and Reform Commission, together with relevant departments, will continue to closely monitor the market price changes of important commodities for people’s livelihood, and take corresponding control measures in a timely manner as needed to keep prices basically stable. The National Development and Reform Commission will continue to regard stable employment as the lower limit of macro-control and the top of the "six stabilities", conscientiously implement the employment priority strategy with relevant departments, further improve the response measures, and stabilize and expand employment in a multi-pronged manner — —

　　On September 18th, the National Development and Reform Commission held a press conference to release the macroeconomic operation and answer questions from reporters. Meng Wei, deputy director and spokesperson of the Policy Research Office of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the measures to ensure supply and stabilize prices have been effectively implemented and have produced certain positive results.

　　Prices are expected to remain stable.

　　From January to August, the consumer price index (CPI) rose by an average of 2.4% year-on-year, and rose by 2.8% year-on-year in August, which was the same as last month. The PPI of industrial producers rose by 0.1% compared with the same period of last year, and fell by 0.8% in August. Meng Wei said that since the beginning of this year, China’s prices have been operating in a reasonable range. Looking further, the structural characteristics of rising prices are obvious. Affected by African swine fever epidemic and other factors, pork prices rose significantly, driving food prices to increase significantly. However, judging from the core CPI excluding food and energy prices, it rose by 1.5% year-on-year in August and rose by 1.7% on average from January to August.

　　"Maintaining the basic stability of prices, especially the prices of important people’s livelihood commodities, is related to the basic livelihood of the people, especially the people in need. The CPC Central Committee and the State Council attach great importance to this." Meng Wei said that since the beginning of this year, the National Development and Reform Commission has conscientiously implemented the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, and issued a series of policies and measures with relevant departments to ensure market supply and promote basic price stability. For example, take the lead in formulating plans and measures to ensure supply and price stability, vigorously support the construction of pig breeding capacity, enhance the ability of reserve regulation, and earnestly ensure the basic living security of people in need. At present, some measures have been effectively implemented and have produced positive results.

　　According to reports, from the recent monitoring situation, pork prices tend to be stable. From September 11 to September 17, the average daily retail price of pork in 36 large and medium-sized cities increased by 0.28%, which was significantly narrower than that in August. On September 17th, the average prices of fruits and vegetables dropped by 3.2% and 2.2% respectively compared with the end of August.

　　Meng Wei said that from the analysis of price trends, prices are expected to continue to operate smoothly during the National Day. The National Development and Reform Commission, together with relevant departments, will continue to closely monitor the market price changes of important commodities for people’s livelihood, and take corresponding control measures in a timely manner as needed to keep prices basically stable.

　　Multi-pronged approach to stabilize and expand employment

　　Stable employment is the first of the "six stabilities". Meng Wei said that from the current situation, China’s employment situation is generally stable.

　　First, new jobs have grown steadily. From January to August, 9.84 million new jobs were created in cities and towns across the country, which has achieved 89.5% of the annual target; In August, the national urban survey unemployment rate was 5.2%, down 0.1 percentage point from July, and both July and August were below the control target of 5.5%.

　　Second, the market supply and demand are basically balanced. The recruitment ratio of human resources market in 11 provinces and cities such as Guangdong is still higher than 1, and the job demand is greater than the number of job seekers.

　　Third, the employment of key groups is generally stable. As of July 1, the employment rate of college graduates in 2019 was 68.3%, which was basically the same as the same period last year; At the end of the second quarter, the total number of migrant workers in rural areas reached 180 million, an increase of 2.26 million over the same period last year; By the end of July, 10.96 million poor laborers had been employed, an increase of 1.08 million over the end of last year.

　　Meng Wei said that at present, China’s economic operation is still in a reasonable range, the service industry with large employment capacity has developed rapidly, and the role of innovation and entrepreneurship has been continuously enhanced; At the same time, China has formed a relatively complete employment and entrepreneurship policy and service system, which have provided strong support for achieving higher quality and full employment.

　　Since the beginning of this year, the State Council and relevant departments have successively introduced and implemented a number of policies and measures to stabilize employment, such as reducing taxes and fees, helping enterprises to stabilize their posts, vocational training, and expanding enrollment in higher vocational colleges, and the effects have gradually emerged. Meng Wei said that in the next step, the National Development and Reform Commission will continue to regard stable employment as the lower limit of macroeconomic regulation and control and the top of the "six stabilities", conscientiously implement the employment priority strategy with relevant departments, adhere to focusing on key points and making precise policies, and further improve the response measures while doing a good job in implementing the established policies, and stabilize and expand employment in a multi-pronged manner.

　　Infrastructure investment accelerated.

　　The data shows that from January to August, the national infrastructure investment increased by 4.2% year-on-year, 0.4 percentage points faster than that from January to July. In August, the National Development and Reform Commission approved 9 fixed assets investment projects with a total investment of 68.9 billion yuan.

　　The 2019 "Government Work Report" proposed that the target task of "completing railway investment of 800 billion yuan" should be achieved this year. In response to the statement that "the absolute amount of railway investment has slowed down in the past two months", Meng Wei said that since the beginning of this year, the completion of railway investment has been generally stable. From January to August, China’s railway investment in fixed assets reached 449.6 billion yuan, basically equivalent to the same period last year.

　　In order to complete this year’s railway investment task and lay a good foundation for subsequent construction, the National Development and Reform Commission will further intensify its work with relevant departments, China State Railway Group Co.,Ltd. and relevant places, focusing on "three batches", that is, "one batch under construction, one batch under construction and one batch under reserve".

　　We will steadily build a number of major projects. Railway construction projects are still short-term in the central and western regions of China. It is necessary to focus on the central and western regions, continue to promote the "eight vertical and eight horizontal" main passages of high-speed railways, improve the layout of trunk road networks, and urge the project funds to be in place in time and in full.

　　Promote the start of a number of major projects. Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission approved a number of railway projects. Among them, the feasibility study report of Chongqing-Kunming high-speed railway was recently approved, with a total investment of 141.6 billion yuan, which is the largest railway project approved by the National Development and Reform Commission since the 13th Five-Year Plan. In addition, there are still several backbone channel projects that are actively carrying out preliminary work, and will be approved item by item once conditions are met.

　　Plan and reserve a number of major projects. In order to give full play to the basic supporting role of railways in the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and other major strategies, the National Development and Reform Commission and relevant parties are speeding up the preparation of relevant special transportation plans in combination with the preliminary research of the Tenth Five-Year Plan. The next step will be to incorporate the research of major projects with accurate and influential views into the plan, strengthen the project reserve, and form a good situation of combining far and near and connecting in steps.

　　"In short, we will work with relevant parties to focus on accurate investment and effective investment and give full play to the positive role of investment in promoting economic and social development." Meng Wei said. (Economic Daily China Economic Net reporter Xiong Li)

When cross-border e-commerce sellers choose logistics, they will face a variety of logistics solutions and logistics service providers. How should sellers choose which one is "suitable for them"? Cross-border logistics modes are different, and the timeliness and freight rates are different. How many cross-border e-commerce logistics modes are there? Let’s take a look at it next!

Cross-border e-commerce logistics commonly used by cross-border sellers is divided into two ways, namely domestic direct delivery and overseas warehouse delivery; Among them, domestic direct delivery includes traditional postal parcels, international express delivery, special parcels and domestic express delivery; Overseas warehouse delivery refers to overseas warehouse delivery one by one, self-operated overseas warehouse with e-commerce platform, and third-party overseas warehouse signed by sellers.

01. Traditional postal parcel

Traditional express parcels, also known as postal parcels, are characterized by wide coverage. Postal parcels cover more than 230 countries and regions around the world and can be delivered almost anywhere in the world. According to statistics, more than 70% of cross-border logistics parcels in China are delivered by traditional express parcel mode, but postal parcels are increasingly unable to meet the development of cross-border e-commerce, because its logistics timeliness is too slow, which restricts its development.

Advantages: all over the world, wide coverage and low price.

Disadvantages: the logistics speed is slow.

02. International express

IT mainly refers to UPS, FedEx, DHL and TNT. These international couriers provide excellent logistics experience for overseas users who buy China products online through their self-built global networks, powerful IT systems and localized services all over the world.

Advantages: faster speed and moderate packet loss rate.

Disadvantages: the price is high, and the price and tariff change greatly, which limits the consignment items.

03. Domestic express

With the increasing popularity of cross-border e-commerce, domestic express delivery has also begun to carry out international business, mainly EMS, SF Express and "four links and one arrival" (Shentong, Yuantong, Zhongtong, Huitong and Yunda).

Relying on postal channels, EMS’s international business is relatively mature, and it can directly reach more than 60 countries around the world. SF Express has also launched express delivery services to the United States, Australia, South Korea, Japan and other countries, and launched cross-border B2C services from Chinese mainland to Russia.

Advantages: fast speed and low cost.

Disadvantages: lack of experience, lack of market control ability, and limited coverage of overseas markets.

Traditional postal parcels, international express delivery and domestic express delivery can also be collectively referred to as "express delivery".

04. Dedicated line logistics

Dedicated line logistics mode refers to the logistics mode that is transported by a dedicated route and delivered by a cooperative company to a destination country. Its advantage lies in that it can transport goods to a specific country and region in large quantities and reduce costs through scale effect, which mainly covers three types of dedicated lines:

Air dedicated lineThis refers to the exclusive air route from China to a certain country, and it is a door-to-door transportation service with package delivery and tax. It has the highest cost in special line logistics and is suitable for the stocking mode of quick sales and quick replenishment.

Maritime special line：Large carrying capacity. The cost is the lowest, which is suitable for large-scale cross-border transportation, but the transportation time limit is relatively long, ranging from 25 to 40 days.

Special railway line：Mainly for the specific route transportation between China and Europe, the cost and timeliness are in the middle of the three. Its advantages are smooth and safe, less transit and high time accuracy. However, due to the serious restrictions of transportation areas, this mode of transportation is also suitable for some large cargo transportation.

Advantages: low price, high speed and low packet loss rate.

Disadvantages: the freight cost is higher than that of postal parcels, and the scope of domestic collection is relatively limited.

05. Overseas warehouse is issued one by one.

Overseas warehouses are delivered one by one. Cross-border e-commerce sellers first stock the goods in the logistics warehouse of the destination country in advance, and after customers place orders on the seller’s e-commerce website or third-party stores, they directly deliver the goods to customers from overseas warehouses, which can improve the logistics timeliness and bring customers a high-quality logistics experience and choose overseas warehouses.

Advantages: By preparing goods in advance, cross-border logistics is transformed into local logistics, which can greatly reduce the time of goods distribution; There are fewer restrictions on the volume and weight of transported goods than international express services such as postal parcels; The return operation is convenient.

Disadvantages: it is difficult to accurately estimate the quantity of pre-stored goods and personalized goods that are not suitable for customization.

Differences between different overseas warehouses:

Self-operated overseas warehouses on e-commerce platforms: e-commerce platforms or sellers who use self-operated overseas warehouses on platforms can get more traffic, such as Amazon platforms; However, there will also be problems such as high storage cost and inability to specify warehouse delivery;

Signing a third-party overseas warehouse: Compared with the self-operated overseas warehouse logistics mode of e-commerce platform, sellers can flexibly use overseas warehouses according to product characteristics, and orders from multiple platforms can be delivered in the same warehouse. Overseas warehouse delivery is more conducive to cross-border e-commerce enterprises to improve the overall logistics service level.

[Observer Network Comprehensive Report] Remember this picture?

On the Galapagos Island in the Pacific Ocean, the iguana cubs escaped from the snakes.

This thrilling scene comes from the second season of the British BBC documentary "The Earth Pulses" and was awarded as "a moment that the audience must watch" by the British Film Academy Award in 2016.

However, according to the BBC6’s report on June 15th, Elizabeth White, a producer of "The Earth Pulses 2", pointed out that the young iguanas did not cooperate with the snakes when filming the documentary, so the pictures broadcast were "stitched" together by two cameras, and it was not the same iguanas who were besieged by the snakes and finally escaped.

The BBC denied this statement.

The BBC said that the documentary did use two cameras when shooting, but this was to present different perspectives of iguana cubs and snakes, and there was no such thing as "stitching".

In addition, the documentary really only filmed the escape course of one iguana cub.

The BBC has won praise from the outside world for shooting many high-quality wildlife documentaries, but it has also been exposed more than once.Suspected of fraud.

In 2015, the video of a "volcanic thunderstorm" in southern Chile in the BBC documentary Patagonia: The Secret Paradise of the Earth was amazing.

However, according to the British "Daily Mail" report, thunderstorms are synthetic, and two videos are taken from two volcanic eruptions in 2011 and 2015.

In this regard, the film producer Tuppence Si Tong explained: "This kind of phenomenon exists in reality, but it is difficult to observe it with the naked eye or shoot it with a single camera. It is necessary to rely on special technology to present and describe such real natural wonders. "

"Our purpose (to do this) is to present an amazing visual impact in a volcanic eruption," Si Tong said. "We used a time-lapse photo of the volcano taken in early 2015, and lightning was added to the ejected clouds."

The additional lightning is another volcanic eruption landscape acquired by a Chilean photographer with long exposure four years ago.

In 2015, in the BBC documentary "Planet of Man", the episode "Desert: Life in the Melting Pot" tells that two Mongolian herders were attacked by wolves because of their camels, and then tried to shoot a wild wolf.

However, a "wild wolf" appearing in the desert scene in the film actually made a guest appearance under the command of the wolf trainer.

The BBC also admitted that the wild wolf appeared in this shot was actually in a semi-domesticated state. When shooting this group of shots, the wolf trainer stood outside the camera and directed the wolf to run to himself.

In 2011, in the documentary Frozen Planet, BBC also synthesized pictures of polar bears giving birth in the wild.

There is a picture in Frozen Planet: a newborn polar bear baby is lying in his mother’s arms and whispering. The audience who have seen it believe that it was taken by the cameraman in the cold climate.

Screenshot from documentaryFrozen planet

But the fact is that the polar bear gave birth in a zoo, the BBC matched it with a wild background, and the snow in the picture was fake.

The BBC explained at the time that it was "almost impossible" to film polar bears giving birth in the wild.

The fake cave created by the film crew is from the Daily Mail.

Special feature of 1905 film network　The strength of Jiqi’s uncle circle kept breaking the news. The roadshow of "Former 4" turned into a "love emergency room", and the tears were spilled on the Northeast Road, and tears were shed with emotion. …

In the past National Day, the box office figures kept rising. At the same time, the main creators of major head films also went deep into all parts of the country, communicating with the audience at zero distance, sharing their hearts and living Qi Fei in fancy, and boosting the reputation and popularity of movies.

At the same time, based on the successful experience of the summer file, the movie channel continued to carry out the "panoramic documentary live broadcast" of the four blockbusters of the National Day file, and exclusively talked about the core creation of the movie before and after the premiere ceremony and roadshow, and distributed and spread it with the help of the new media matrix to create an explosion topic, and played a marketing "combination card" online and offline.

Whether it is in full swing in the summer or in a steady performance in the National Day, roadshows are still a "battleground" for various blockbusters. We can’t help but ask, what is the value and significance of roadshows in the short video era, and what new ways of playing have collided?

one

Why do we still need a "road show"

As early as 2016, I wrote a long article detailing the value of the film roadshow. One of the paragraphs reads: "The film roadshow is often called the last trembling of the fate of a film, and it is also the most important part of film promotion. The main creation can visit the audience to watch the film, listen to the audience’s feelings most intuitively, and communicate with the audience at close range, which is not only conducive to the spread of film word of mouth, but also to increase the film arrangement in the cinema to a certain extent. "

The tradition of China film roadshows has a long history, and it entered its golden age around 2015. For example, the director once set a record by traveling to 188 cinemas in 31 cities, which also earned him the reputation of "the first person on the road show".

However, with the increasing influence of online platforms such as Weibo, WeChat, Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker, and the wave of short video era, film promotion has become more and more online. In this context, do we still need roadshows? The successful experience of many films this year has given a positive answer, which is mainly reflected in the following aspects.

First of all, at the road show site, the audience can interact with the main creators and stars at zero distance, and this sense of ceremony of watching movies is irreplaceable by online publicity. Through talent show, heart-to-heart sharing and other forms, it is easy for the audience to increase their understanding and goodwill towards the actors and films. With the blessing of a sense of ceremony and experience, it is also easier to make Amway films to friends and relatives around them, which is conducive to the fermentation of word of mouth.

This kind of interaction is equally precious to the master. The director once said that the roadshow is the closest way to communicate with the audience, so that he can adjust the propaganda direction immediately according to the feedback from the audience, and even the creation details of the next film.

Second, it can integrate and incite regional resources, mobilize more local channels to join the film promotion work, increase the exposure of the film in the major media in the region, and cover the corners that conventional propaganda can’t reach. At the same time, the road show arrangement is also conducive to winning more support from cinemas and cinemas, and combining with accurate regional distribution, it will deeply incite the audience in a certain region.

In addition, continuous roadshows are also helpful for word-of-mouth masterpieces to give full play to the long tail effect. With excellent quality and roadshow topic fermentation, Feng Shen Part I drew a box office curve with full stamina when it was not optimistic in the early stage. The National Day masterpiece "Volunteers: Attack by Heroes" is also expected to achieve a counterattack with word of mouth, and its ongoing national roadshow will also add a "fire" to the box office growth.

It is not difficult to see that although it is difficult to quantify the direct contribution of roadshows to the box office of films, they still play an irreplaceable role at present. At the same time, in the all-media era, offline roadshows and online multi-channel linkage also provide more imagination for film promotion and marketing.

In the era of short video, how can roadshows be played?

Facing the wave of the short video era, the propaganda idea of roadshows is no longer limited to word-of-mouth fermentation in a certain region, but hopes to produce short video materials with interactivity and hot topics with the help of roadshows, so as to achieve a wider range of out-of-circle communication.

Take the National Day movies as an example. The lineup of "Uncle Circle YEATION" in "Rock-solid" has its own flow, and the fancy interaction between the popular masters and the audience frequently creates famous scenes; When returning to the shooting location of Chongqing Road Show, the film propaganda was also combined with local characteristics, and the contents such as "Starring in Chongqing dialect" and "Yu Hewei finally eats hot pot" also achieved good communication effects.

The roadshow scene of "Ex-4" has turned into a large-scale "emotional consultation room", where the creators share their sharp attitudes towards hot topics such as marriage, love, ex-husband, love rat, etc., and frequent golden sentences can always hit the pain point and arouse the resonance of netizens.

Volunteer Army: Attack of the Heroes focuses on "Full of Dry Goods". For example, unknown films such as "Being selected by Chen Kaige because of the high-flying faction", "I said that Daxun Wei was so nervous that I drank crazy in the first scene" and "It took 25 years to change from an audience in Chen Kaige to an actor" were exposed behind the scenes in roadshows and live broadcasts, which triggered heated discussions among netizens.

Although the popularity of short videos related to roadshows continues, the spread of short videos is obviously limited in quantity, depth and richness of forms, and many high-quality contents are not well spread and displayed. In the urgent need of the industry, the film channel media team combined with the live experience of large-scale events in the past and relied on the operational planning and production ability of the professional content team to innovate the "panoramic documentary live broadcast" mode, looking for a new increment of film announcement.

The first battle of "Fengshen Part I" was a success. It followed the roadshow for six consecutive days, and created an exclusive dialogue, digging up behind-the-scenes stories and hot topics. The related topics were read more than 2 billion times.

On the National Day, Six Princesses also continued to tailor-made "in-depth documentary live broadcast" for four films, Rock-solid, Volunteers: Attack by Soldiers and It’s not as if the blood is boiling so much, and combined live broadcast, short video, column and viewing group to create the strongest communication volume.

In order to ensure the timeliness and unusual exclusive perspective of the announced content, the live broadcast team of the movie channel follows the film creative team all day, and can produce fresh and massive first-hand materials in a short time. On the premiere day of "Rock-solid", the "Six Princesses" team sent seven shots to shoot seven masters, just to present a panoramic view before and after the stage; "Ex-4: Early Marriage" premiered live for 11 hours, witnessing the opening of the pre-sale with the main creator.

Different from the conventional short video presentation, the movie channel team upholds three magic weapons of featured live broadcast: authenticity, interaction and customization. It is highly realistic and shows the true "entertaining the living"; Pay attention to users and listen to the real evaluation of the film and actors by the audience; It also has excellent production standards and differentiated customized live broadcast solutions.

In the live broadcast, Lei Jiayin, the star of Rock-Solid, drank ginseng water in the hotel to keep healthy, and talked all the way. After the premiere, those who came to watch the movie came across hugs with the actors, and Chen Kaige, the director of Volunteers: Attack of the Heroes, challenged the bag, and Zhang Songwen signed the poster carefully, which impressed everyone.

Sincere efforts have also received enthusiastic response from the audience. Before and after the National Day, the number of short videos released by the media matrix of movie channels exceeded 600, the number of blog posts in Weibo exceeded 1,800, the number of short videos played exceeded 200 million times, the total number of hot searches on the whole platform exceeded 111, and the total reading volume exceeded 2 billion times. The key films of the National Day archives were launched in conjunction with the media live broadcast, and the live broadcast was watched over 150 million times. With high-quality content, professional perspective and topic sensitivity, the potential energy of roadshows in film promotion was released to the maximum.

Film creation is inseparable from the audience, which is the charm and value of roadshow as the "nearest" publicity form to the audience. "The fragrance of wine is afraid of the depth of the alley". The new experience gained by the National Day stalls in roadshows and the new ways of playing will also accumulate valuable wealth for the subsequent film announcements, so that every good China film can be seen by more audiences.

The reporter learned from many sources that the important direction of Tesla’s business restructuring this round is to promote the landing of its autonomous driving technology FSD software, including its development in China.

　　Under the concern of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, the post-earthquake recovery and reconstruction work in Wenchuan has achieved remarkable results. The picture shows the rural scenery of Xiushui Town, Anzhou District, Mianyang City, Sichuan Province. Xinhua news agency

　　In the new era, a prominent feature of the Party Central Committee governing the country with the Supreme Leader as the core is to speak clearly about politics. Since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has pointed out on many occasions that the quality and ability of a cadre in party member should first be judged by whether he is politically stable and reliable, and whether he consciously safeguards the authority of the CPC Central Committee and centralizes and leads. Among all the abilities of leading cadres, political ability is the first. Grasping the connotation of current politics and its ruling logic scientifically is of great practical significance for improving political position, strengthening political awareness and enhancing political skills.

　　1. The political mission of the Party in the new era is to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

　　In the party’s political discourse, in addition to the use of political concepts in the sense of political power, politics is also used from the perspective of the connotation of the times and the basis of governance. The most typical is two sentences: development is the biggest politics; Popular support is the greatest politics. In May 2015, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out at the Central United Front Work Conference that the opposition of people and the contrast of strength are the key to the success or failure of the cause of the party and the people, and they are the biggest politics. Development is people-centered, and only by constantly meeting the people’s growing needs for a better life can we win the masses and win the times. Of course, we are talking about all-round development, not just economic development; It is scientific development, not extensive development.

　　The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China clarified the party’s initial intention and mission, and actually gave politics a brand-new connotation: seeking happiness for the people of China and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation. On December 1, 2017, at the high-level dialogue between the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the world’s political parties, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized: strive for peace and development for mankind. The Communist Party of China (CPC) is not only a political party seeking happiness for the people of China, but also a political party striving for the cause of human progress, and always takes making greater contributions to mankind as its mission.

　　The Communist Party of China (CPC)’s political mission in the new era is to take charge of the "Four Greatness", adhere to and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and complete the Chinese dream of building a well-off society in an all-round way, basically realizing socialist modernization, building a socialist modernization power in an all-round way and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation step by step. It can be seen that the politics we are talking about is by no means "short politics", but by solving the problem of insufficient imbalance, we can better meet the people’s growing needs for a better life; Our struggle is by no means a "class struggle", but to overcome all kinds of difficulties and obstacles on the road of national rejuvenation with historical responsibility and fearless spirit; Now, when we talk about revolution again, we want to maintain the enterprising spirit formed in the revolutionary era and continue to promote social change and the self-construction of the ruling party.

　　2. The overall leadership of the Party is the premise and guarantee to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

　　In recent years, several major political conclusions have been repeatedly emphasized: the Communist Party of China (CPC) is the highest political leadership force in China; Party, government, military and civilian studies, east, west, north and south, the party is the leader of everything; The Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership is the most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and the greatest advantage of Socialism with Chinese characteristics system. In this regard, we should strengthen our understanding of the following aspects:

　　First, the emphasis on the party’s overall leadership and the party leading everything now is mainly due to the fact that the party’s leadership has been blurred, weakened and marginalized for a period of time. Some people don’t deny the party’s leadership verbally, but when they get busy, they put it aside, and the organization, personnel and work are not in place or become a mere formality. Some people even use the excuse of "separation of party and government" to weaken and overhead the party’s leadership. As a result, the party’s leadership is blurred, weakened and marginalized, and it is difficult to fully implement the major decisions of the central government, and the management of cadres in party member is lax and soft, which leads to corruption, bad work style and other problems.

　　Second, to accomplish the major deployment, political mission or historical mission in the new era, we must unify our thoughts and actions and break the pattern of vested interests, otherwise we will delay the opportunity and accomplish nothing. This process is full of predictable and unpredictable risks. Without the central flag-raising orientation, subversive mistakes may occur. Therefore, emphasizing the centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee is an urgent need to meet major challenges, resist major risks, overcome major obstacles and solve major contradictions.

　　Third, the overall leadership of the party is mainly political leadership. The so-called political leadership, first of all, is the leadership in political direction, political decision-making, political discipline, etc. In order to realize this kind of leadership, we need ideological, organizational and cadre protection. From the point of view, the overall leadership of the party is not the leadership at the management and operation levels. From the perspective of role orientation, the party’s leadership should "take the overall situation and coordinate all parties"; From the function point of view, the content of the party’s leadership is to "take the direction, seek the overall situation, formulate policies and promote reform." A series of specific expositions by the Supreme Leader General Secretary also dialectically expounded the relationship between the Party and other parties. On the one hand, it highlighted the importance of the Party’s leadership, on the other hand, it also paid attention to giving full play to the enthusiasm of all parties. In other words, upholding and strengthening the party’s overall leadership is not to replace specific organizations and take care of some specific things in great detail. The view that emphasizing everything under the leadership of the party means "no distinction between party and government" and "unity of party and government" is incorrect.

　　3. The party’s leadership should be strong, and political construction must be given priority.

　　The content of the party’s political construction includes seven aspects: First, political loyalty. Ensure that the whole party obeys the central authorities, and uphold the authority of the Party Central Committee and centralized and unified leadership. The second is the political line. Adhere to the party’s basic line in the primary stage of socialism and consciously implement the major decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee. The third is political discipline. Strictly abide by political discipline and rules, and maintain a high degree of consistency with the CPC Central Committee in political stance, political direction, political principles and political road. The fourth is political life. Strictly implement some norms of inner-party political life under the new situation, and create a good political ecology with a clean atmosphere. The fifth is political principle. Strict implementation of democratic centralism not only fully promotes democracy, but also is good at centralization and unification. Sixth, political value. Be loyal, honest, fair and upright, realistic, honest and clean, and prevent and correct the erosion of the principle of commodity exchange. The seventh is political responsibility. Constantly improve political awareness and political ability, so as to be loyal to the party, share worries for the party, perform due duties for the party and benefit the people.

　　Guiding the Party’s all-round construction with political construction will fully and concretely embody the above seven aspects in all fields of Party building.

　　In terms of ideological construction, highlight political ideals. Firmly believe in Marxism, the lofty ideal of communism and the common ideal of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and persist in arming our minds and guiding our work with Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era. In terms of organizational construction, highlight political standards. Party member, which deviates from the requirements of political construction, can’t develop and its cadres can’t be reused. In terms of work style construction, we should highlight our political stance. Adhere to the mass line, strictly implement the eight central regulations, and establish a correct view of political achievements. In terms of discipline construction, highlight political rules. Strictly abide by the provisions of party discipline and state law and keep all kinds of bottom lines. In the fight against corruption, we should stress political inspection and supervision, and urge party organizations at all levels, party member and cadres to fulfill their political responsibilities.

　　To sum up, achieving the goal of "two hundred years" and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is the most fundamental requirement of politics in the new era and the historical mission of the party; To fulfill the political mission of the new era, we must uphold and strengthen the party’s overall leadership, especially political leadership; To be strong and powerful, the Party’s leadership must implement the requirements of political construction and promote the comprehensive and strict management of the Party. This is the fundamental logic of the party’s ruling in the new era.

　　CCTV News:According to official website news of the Ministry of Public Security, on August 10th, the Ministry of Public Security held a press conference to inform the public security organs of the effectiveness of cracking down on illegal crimes against citizens’ personal information. Thomas lee, deputy director of the Network Security Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, said that with the wide application of face recognition technology and the progress of artificial intelligence technology, face recognition and verification crimes came into being. The materials used by criminals to implement "AI face change" are mainly photos, especially ID photos. At the same time, the face recognition verification system is broken through by combining the name and ID number of the person. In order to prevent and crack down on this new type of crime, the public security organs, in conjunction with the State Key Laboratory and other units, carried out the safety assessment of face recognition and in-vivo detection technology, covering key apps such as instant messaging, webcasting, social networking, e-commerce platform and financial payment, which have a large number of users in China and have prominent hidden problems, and timely discovered the potential risks existing in the face recognition verification system, and notified the operators to upgrade security protection measures and face recognition algorithms. At the same time, relying on the special action of "Net Net", we organized a special battle to crack down on the source of crimes that leaked image information such as ID card photos, cracked 79 cases of "AI face-changing" and arrested 515 suspects, effectively curbing the momentum of such crimes.　

　　CCTV News:On July 20th, CCTV’s "International Sharp Review" broadcast an article entitled "The Secret of American Enterprises Obtaining High Profits in China", which was reprinted by many overseas media.

　　On July 20-21, facebook account of French Radio LCF, German website of European Times, German-Chinese Report website, Russian Siberian News website, Spanish Radio International website, Turkish Economic Observer website, Kazakh newspaper official website, Nordic Times website, American Business Daily website, European Union Chinese website, African Times website, Canadian Business Daily website, Hungarian United Daily website, Chinese PT portal. On July 21st, Hong Kong Ta Kung Pao and Wen Wei Po also published this article. The main reports are as follows:

　　The Section 301 Committee of the United States will hold a hearing from August 20th to 23rd to discuss the list of US government’s proposal on July 10th to impose a 10% tariff on China’s $200 billion goods exported to the United States. The Trump administration said that the United States did this because of China’s improper behavior and unfair trade practices, including government subsidies, which brought huge losses to the United States. Is this the truth?

　　First of all, thanks to China’s fast-growing economy and huge consumer market, many American companies are very successful in the China market.

　　The world’s second largest manufacturer of connectors and cable components, Amphenol Group of the United States, just entered the China market, relying on mergers and acquisitions to develop rapidly. In 2007, Amphenol finally became the dominant company through two barriers: patents and standards, and earned high profits from relevant markets in China every year. At present, Amphenol controls 80% of the high-speed connector market in China communication equipment and server industry.

　　In fact, Ann Fanor is not the only American company that has achieved great success in the China market. According to statistics, the market share of glass substrates of American Corning Company in China is over 50%, and China’s 10th and 5th generation glass substrates are all monopolized by Corning Company. As for Apple and General Motors, China has become not only their production base, but also the largest consumer market for their products.

　　Secondly, in order to encourage foreign enterprises to invest or develop certain priority industries, local governments in China often give a lot of preferential policies and financial support to joint ventures, which not only provides an important boost to the development of American companies, but also becomes a source of high profits.

　　After China joined the WTO, a large number of American companies made huge profits from China. For example, in 2017, the two joint ventures of General Motors in China realized a total profit of 27.99 billion yuan, from which General Motors took a profit of 13.33 billion yuan.

　　As the world’s largest IC consumer market, nearly half of the world’s IC products are sold to China. Last year, the revenue of 20 major integrated circuit companies in the United States in China exceeded $75 billion, accounting for about 35% of the total revenue of these 20 companies.

　　Washington launched a trade war against China under the banner of protecting American interests. It is hard to understand that such unilateral measures will benefit these American companies in China, which have already made huge profits? The common sense of the international community has always been that a trade war brings a double loss, not a win-win situation.
