Open AI CEO: AI can improve employee productivity, but it will also create more unemployment.

According to the news of webmaster’s home on July 28th, Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, said that generative artificial intelligence technologies such as ChatGPT may improve the productivity of many employees in the next few years, but it may also lead to some people losing their jobs. In an interview with Atlantic Monthly, Altman refuted the view that the AI craze will only have a positive impact on employees. He said, "Many people who are engaged in AI pretend that it will only benefit; It will only be a supplement; No one will be replaced. " But the widespread application of AI may also create new jobs. Altman expects to create better jobs in addition to any disrupted jobs, although he is not sure whether the replaced employees can find these new positions.

Musk: The programmer’s favorite Stack Overflow Q&A platform will be replaced by AI model in the future.

According to a report by IT House on July 26th, the number of users of Stack Overflow, a well-known software developer forum operated by Stack Exchange, is gradually declining. A user named mediator shared an article entitled "The Fall of Stack Overflow" with a chart showing that "the traffic of Stack Overflow has decreased by about 50% in the past year and a half, and the number of questions/answers appearing on the website has also decreased by about 50%".

Musk made a brief comment on this article, arguing that such question-and-answer platforms will gradually be replaced by AI models. He said that the Stack Overflow platform was "killed by LLM (Large Language Model)". Musk also said: "LLM will lead to more and more common (question and answer platform) deaths."

Musk: Within two years, it will change from "lack of silicon" to "lack of electricity" and hinder the development of AI.

According to reports from Wall Street, Musk predicted at the energy conference held in Austin last month that with the increase of electric vehicle consumption, the power demand in 2045 will triple compared with the current one. Musk predicts that by 2030, half of the new cars sold worldwide will be electric vehicles. Recently, Musk once again warned that power shortage may have serious consequences, just as the recent lack of core hinders the technology and automobile industries. This time, the lack of electricity may hinder the development of AI. "We will go from … today’s extreme shortage of silicon to … power shortage in two years." He said.

According to the latest report released by Digital Information World, the energy consumption generated by data centers for training AI models will be three times that of conventional cloud work. It is estimated that by 2030, the power demand of data centers in the United States will increase at an annual rate of about 10%.

Viewpoint: Most large models are running with each other. If GPT3.5/4 is open source, it will face a devastating blow.

According to articles published by Wall Street, most large models are running with them. If GPT3.5/4 is open source, it will face a devastating blow. The article believes that, first of all, the gap between major models and Open AI is still obvious, and the market space originally reserved for other major model manufacturers is already very small. The emergence of open source promotes the big model to enter the hundred-model war, but the problem is that the product homogeneity is serious and there is no ability comparable to GPT4, which will lead to the very low discourse power of the big model and the pricing of the big model will only become more and more difficult; Secondly, in order to optimize the output results, large model enterprises need to iterate the model continuously, which requires a large number of professional data feeding, so data enterprise providers will also become an important role restricting the development of large models. Finally, the training cost of the big model is very high. If you want to make a super big model, you have to work hard, that is, to see who can grab more NVIDIA A/H100 chips; Generally speaking, most large model enterprises are faced with the dilemma that it is difficult to collect fees while desperately spending money. Presumably, many large model enterprises will give up this crowded and unprofitable track in the future.

The third stage will be the most valuable creator, and the manufacturing and logistics industries will use generative AI to automate and optimize processes. At present, the enterprise market is still in its infancy, and most markets are still exploring use cases and deployment options.

Do you know about World Statistics Day?

        In 2010, the 90th meeting of the 64th UN General Assembly adopted a formal resolution to designate October 20th, 2010 as "World Statistics Day". This is the first global statistics day in history, and global statisticians have ushered in their own common festival. Five years later, the 69th United Nations General Assembly officially designated October 20th as World Statistics Day, which is celebrated every five years. As a grand event that transcends national boundaries, World Statistics Day highlights the concept of "global statistics are one" and enhances the importance of official statistics and public recognition.

 

        I. Origin of "World Statistics Day"


        After the end of World War II, all countries are healing the wounds of war and restoring and developing their economies. In this process, official statistics began to play a role in social and government decision-making, especially in important areas of people’s livelihood such as economy, population and health. With the continuous development and progress of economy and society, the national statistical agency responsible for producing and disseminating official statistical data has become one of the important national institutions in every country, and statistical data has also become an important basis for government decision-making, academic research and public knowledge.

 

        Worldwide, the United Nations established the Statistical Commission in 1947, which is responsible for formulating international statistical standards, methods and guidelines, and promoting the standardization and global comparability of statistics in all countries of the world, the improvement of methods and systems and the improvement of data quality. Nowadays, global statisticians cooperate sincerely, and official statistics have formed a closely linked world family. Every year, heads of statistical agencies of United Nations member countries and international organizations gather in new york to make decisions on various statistical issues at the annual meeting of the United Nations Statistical Commission. Official statistics have made unprecedented achievements on a global scale, which deserves to be celebrated by the statistical community.

 

        In September 2008, the United Nations Statistics Division invited countries, regional institutions and international organizations to express their views on the proposal to celebrate World Statistics Day on October 20, 2010. Although many countries and regions have held statistics day, statistics week or statistics month celebrations in various forms, global statistics day celebrations can better show the great achievements made by official statistics in the world and the important contributions made to economic and social development. This initiative received a wide response during the fortieth session of the United Nations Statistical Commission in February 2009, and 75 countries and international organizations expressed their support. Based on these positive feedbacks, the forty-first session of the United Nations Statistical Commission in February 2010 considered the report on World Statistics Day, and at the 64th session of the United Nations General Assembly, a resolution was made to designate October 20, 2010 as World Statistics Day, inviting governments to support the celebration of World Statistics Day.

 

        Second, the style of previous World Statistics Days


        On October 20th, 2010, the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs and the National Bureau of Statistics of China jointly held the first global celebration of "World Statistics Day" in the United Nations Pavilion of the Shanghai World Expo, with the theme of celebrating many achievements of official statistics and promoting the core values of "service, integrity and professionalism" of official statistics, aiming at enhancing public understanding and support for official statistics. Li Keqiang, Deputy Prime Minister of the State Council, China, and Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General of the United Nations, sent written speeches; The Statistics Department of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs and the National Bureau of Statistics of China jointly held the launching ceremony of "World Women: 2010" and "Interpretation of Main Statistical Indicators in China", signed the Letter of Intent on International Statistical Training Cooperation between the National Bureau of Statistics of People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the United Nations Statistics Department, and held the opening ceremony of the China International Statistical Training Center-United Nations Statistical Cooperation Center. The celebration of the first World Statistics Day was supported and promoted by about 80 countries around the world, and more than 100 countries around the world held celebrations.

 

        On October 20, 2015, the second World Statistics Day was celebrated in Xi ‘an, China. Nearly 100 statistical officials, experts and scholars from 55 countries and international organizations gathered together to show government statistical achievements, share statistical development experience and advocate statistics to better serve economic and social development and enhance people’s well-being. The theme of this Statistics Day is "Optimizing Data and Improving Life", which has been supported and promoted by national statistical agencies, statistical associations, universities and other partners in more than 110 countries and regions around the world. Promotion activities include holding a press conference, reporting the latest survey or census results, and releasing statistics of interest to the general public, which further expands the influence of official statistics.

 

        The third World Statistics Day was held on October 20th, 2020, with the theme of "Connecting the world with data we can trust", emphasizing the importance of credibility, authoritative data, innovation and public products in the national statistical system. The celebration was organized under the guidance of the United Nations Statistical Commission, and the global statistical agencies made joint efforts to hold various activities to display and publicize statistics. In his invitation letter to all countries, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres pointed out: "On the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations, the whole world is deploying data to meet common challenges. Let us take the opportunity of World Statistics Day to highlight the important role of statistics in promoting sustainable development."

        Third, China Statistics Open Day


        The National Bureau of Statistics of China responded positively to the United Nations resolution on celebrating World Statistics Day, and designated September 20th, 2010 as "China Statistics Open Day", and carried out a series of activities with the themes of "Statistics with You" and "Towards Open and Transparent China Statistics". Since then, in mid-September every year, the National Bureau of Statistics will hold a series of activities of the China Statistics Open Day in combination with the major themes and key work of China’s official statistics in that year, and invite grassroots statistical investigators, users of statistical data, teachers and students of colleges and universities, netizens and media reporters and other representatives from all walks of life to the event site for discussion and exchange, so as to enhance the public’s understanding of statistical work and statistical data and promote China statistics to be more open, transparent and better serve the society.

 

 

  So far, the National Bureau of Statistics has heldThe 11th China Statistics Open Day received great attention from all walks of life, the active participation of the public, and the strong support of statistical institutions at all levels and statisticians. It not only showed the new achievements of China’s statistical reform and development, but also spread statistical knowledge and promoted statistical culture. As a beautiful business card for statistical departments to create sunshine statistics, China Statistics Open Day reflects the attitude of statistical departments to actively adapt to the new situation of China’s economic and social development, open their doors to statistics, and consciously accept social supervision. At the same time, it has become a window to effectively improve statistical ability, statistical data quality and government statistical credibility, and to show the core values of statistics and the mental outlook of statisticians.

I told you to learn from it, not to copy it. Chery is another wave of new cars hitting your face!

Every time Chery sends a new car, there is always a comment that "the designer really has no job to bite a lighter" and "If you can’t design, then learn from other car companies".

There are even netizens who are directly anxious and send out "I really can’t change it for me!" Comments.

However, the recent wave of new cars released by Chery car companies is surprising: it seems to directly imitate the design of other cars.

Manufacturer’s guide price: 129,900-172,900 yuan.

Body wheelbase: 2830mm

Powertrain 1: 135kw rear motor+53.87kWh battery.

Powertrain 1: 155 kW rear motor+67.12kWh battery

Pure battery life: 412/512km (CLTC working condition)

Some new cars released by Chery in recent years are somewhat controversial in appearance design. For example, Ou Mengda’s front face design is somewhat similar to Changan UNI-T’s "borderless" front face.

Arrizo 5GT’s headlights and mid-net design also have Lexas’ sense of sight.

Chery New Energy is the hardest hit area. The QQ ice cream car has not inherited the design style of the fuel version of Chery QQ at all, but looks like a modified model of Wuling Hongguang MINIEV.

Of course, Chery QQ, known as the "national car", was also suspected of copying Chevrolet Spark in its front face design. In that year, GM also sued Chery.

Chery Unbounded Pro is a mini version made like Aion Y.

Chery New Energy also has a discontinued "heavyweight" model-Big Ant. The car’s middle net and headlight group are designed with a "collar smell".

Why is it a "heavyweight"? This is because the design of Lectra’s headlights is controversial.

As the saying goes, "beauty is the same, but ugliness has its own merits" (not to say that the front face of Lingke is ugly), which can all hit the face, and the reasons behind it can be imagined.

The appearance design of Shu Xiangjia, the latest listing of Chery New Energy, has also caused controversy. The high emotional intelligence statement is: Thanks to Chery for letting us use 130,000 yuan to buy 1 million Lotus Eletre.

Split headlights are a very common design in 2023, but it really takes some skill to design the front face so similar to another car.

In fact, you said that Chery’s design in recent years was completely bad, right? That’s not true either. For example, Chery Tiggo 9 can easily see that this is a Tiggo series model.

The biggest problem with Chery’s design is that there is no inheritance, no unified tonality, which is what we often call "family design". Every car designer is flying himself.

There are a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand readers, and each new Chery car also has its own "brand-new design".

Despite Huawei’s blessing, the appearance of Zhijie S7 listed this week can still find the shadow of other brands.

In the front part, the headlights are wrapped in the design of bumper and fender, which is easily reminiscent of Porsche Taycan.

Porsche Taycan is the earliest high-performance luxury four-door tram. It is understood that Huawei and Chery want to realize the dream of young people driving Porsche.

But what young people want is "a handsome high-performance pure electric car like Taycan", not "a high-performance pure electric car like Taycan".

In addition to the front of the car, at first glance, the rear of the intellectual S7 is also full of the shadow of another car.

The taillight of Zhijie S7 looks like the designer buckled the taillight of Lincoln Continental and then pasted it on.

In fact, even if you want to learn from it, or just go as Lincoln’s designer thought, there is a better plan. For example, the taillights of the zero-run C01 adopted a similar style, but no one accused them of being like Lincoln Mainland.

Jetway launched a new car, Shanhai L9, in November. This car not only has the same name as the ideal L9, but also has a face-to-face design with the ideal first production car, Li ONE.

Although Shanhai L9 used split headlights and designed a set of lights around China Net, you can see at a glance the relationship between this car and Li ONE, just like the relationship between Jay Chou and Zhou Binglun.

Interestingly, the penetrating daytime running lights of Shanhai L9 are more similar to the ideal L9. I didn’t expect Jetway to have an "iterative upgrade". He really, I cried to death.

You said that the hybrid SUV with penetrating running lights, how come other brands are not like Li ONE? If it weren’t for these cars, I thought the hybrid SUV could only grow into an ideal one!

Before talking about this car, we should first sort out the relationship between Kaiyi and Chery, otherwise we may have wronged our "science man".

Kaiyi was originally a sub-brand established by Chery in 2014, and its models featured a "shell change".

Later, part of Kaiyi’s equity was sold to Yibin Automobile Industry Development Investment Co., Ltd. and Sichuan Yibin Pushi Group Co., Ltd., of which the latter is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wuliangye.

At present, Chery still holds 47.82% equity of Kaiyi, so it is no problem to call Kaiyi "Chery Department".

Back to Kaiyi Picking Up the Moon, this car has a name full of China traditional poetry, but its appearance is suspected of copying smart, a joint venture between Mercedes-Benz and Geely. (We didn’t use "suspected plagiarism" in all the cars in front. )

The front face lamp module is almost a cheap miniature version of smart, and the bumper also uses the same T-shaped line.

The D-pillar shape on the side is the most accusing part of plagiarism: the D-pillar design of the iconic roof cover of this generation of smart and the round logo are used.

The shape of the headlights at the rear of the car, even the sheet metal of the door, is the shadow of smart.

In addition, don’t say, "It’s not that samrt can’t afford it, but that Kaiyi is more cost-effective."

In fact, this car is not cheap, and the starting price is as high as 53,900 yuan. With this money, isn’t it sweet to buy Lumin originally designed by Chang ‘an?

Ironically, official website of Kaiyi still hangs the words "young, innovative and authentic".

Constantly promote the modernization of state governance through reform and innovation

  The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee put forward that "persisting in reform and innovation, keeping pace with the times, being good at self-improvement and self-development, and making the society full of vitality" is one of the remarkable advantages of China’s national system and national governance system in 13 aspects. At the same time, it also established persisting in reform and innovation as the basic principle of adhering to and improving the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system and promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. We must unswervingly deepen reform in an all-round way, continuously strengthen innovation in all aspects, promote the maturity and stereotypes of all aspects of China’s systems with the endogenous motivation of reform and innovation, and promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity.

  To promote the modernization of state governance, we must persist in reform and innovation.

  Persisting in reform and innovation is the basic principle and important method that runs through the whole process of the formation and development of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s system and national governance system.

  Persisting in reform and innovation is the only way to modernize the governance of socialist countries.Looking at the historical process of socialism from its birth to the present, there is no successful experience to be expected and no ready-made model to learn about how to govern socialist society. The Communist Party of China (CPC) people combined the basic principles of Marxism with China’s concrete reality, and through continuous exploration and practice, continuous reform and innovation, established and improved the socialist system and strengthened and improved national governance. Today, the development of the world is undergoing a great change that has never happened in a hundred years. "Only reformers advance, only innovators are strong, and only those who reform and innovate win." Only by unswervingly persisting in reform and innovation is the only correct way to promote the self-improvement and self-development of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s national governance.

  Persisting in reform and innovation is an inevitable requirement for the party to lead the people to effectively govern the country in the new era.The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Compared with the past, the reform and opening up in the new era has many new connotations and characteristics. One of the most important points is that the system construction is heavier, and the reform is more faced with deep-seated institutional mechanisms. The requirements for the top-level design of reform are higher, and the requirements for the system, integrity and synergy of reform are stronger. The task of establishing rules and regulations and building systems accordingly is heavier." To continue to ensure that the party leads the people to effectively govern the country, we must conform to the requirements of the development and changes of the times, constantly persist in reform and innovation, put forward new ideas, formulate new strategies, and come up with new measures. It is necessary to use reform and innovation to resolve the general contradictions and problems that hinder state governance, and also to adjust the focus and methods of reform and innovation according to the fundamental changes of some deep-seated contradictions and problems.

  Persisting in reform and innovation is the key to transform Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s institutional advantages into governance efficiency.After more than six years of efforts to comprehensively deepen reform, the overall governance efficiency of China’s national system and national governance system has been significantly improved, and the vitality of social development has been enhanced. But at the same time, we should also see that some of our reform measures have not been completed, the linkage and coupling of reform need to be strengthened, and the overall effect and overall effect of reform have not been fully demonstrated. Therefore, Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s institutional advantages must be transformed into governance efficiency through further reform and innovation. What we have to do now is to push all reforms closer to a more mature and stereotyped system, so that all reforms can complement each other and have a "chemical reaction" and turn institutional advantages into governance efficiency.

  Carry out the deployment of various tasks through reform and innovation

  To carry out various tasks well, we need to continue to "hold the banner of reform and play the innovative card", highlight and improve the fundamental system, basic system and important system of Socialism with Chinese characteristics system, focus on consolidating the foundation, promoting advantages, supplementing shortcomings and strong and weak items, and build a systematic, scientific, standardized and effective system.

  Carry out the tasks of adhering to and improving the fundamental system through reform and innovation.The system of leadership of the Party, the system of people’s congresses, the fundamental system of the guiding position of Marxism in the ideological field and the absolute leadership of the Party over the people’s army are the fundamental systems of Socialism with Chinese characteristics. The fundamental system is the foundation and pillar that supports the whole system of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and it needs to be unswervingly adhered to and consolidated. However, adhering to and consolidating does not mean that it will remain unchanged once and for all. On the contrary, in order to adhere to and consolidate the fundamental system for a longer and more sustainable period, it is necessary to improve and perfect some specific system components, operating systems and leading organizations’ working systems of the fundamental system according to the development and changes of the times and the development requirements of practice. First of all, do a good job in supporting the new research and deployment system with reform and innovation to ensure the standardized and effective operation of the system. For example, the system of Do not forget your initiative mind and keeping the mission in mind has been added to the party’s leadership system. How to establish a long-term mechanism of Do not forget your initiative mind and keeping the mission in mind needs reform and innovation. Secondly, according to the requirements of the development of the times and practice, advancing with the times and perfecting the specific system require reform and innovation. For example, innovate the mass work mechanism in the Internet age, improve the organizational system, electoral system and rules of procedure of the National People’s Congress, establish an all-staff, all-round and all-round education system and deepen the reform of the professionalization system of military officers, the civilian personnel system and the military service system. Finally, optimize the working system and mechanism through reform and innovation, and enhance institutional coordination. For example, to improve the leadership system of the CPC Central Committee for major work, it is necessary to improve the specific system of unified leadership, overall coordination, supervision and inspection of the party, and to reform and innovate through the working system and mechanism.Form a scientific synergy mechanism.

  Carry out the tasks of adhering to and improving the basic system through reform and innovation.Focusing on upholding and improving the basic political system and basic economic system, the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee put forward clear requirements for reform and innovation. First of all, highlight the main line of the system, enhance the consciousness of reform, and continue to deepen the reform and innovation of specific systems. For example, in the basic economic system, we should take the supply-side structural reform as the main line, deepen the reform of rural collective property rights system, reform the production license system, and establish a punitive compensation system for intellectual property infringement. Secondly, through the reform and innovation of institutional mechanisms, the unique advantages of the basic system are strengthened and demonstrated. For example, improve the implementation mechanism of consultation before and during decision-making, and improve the redistribution adjustment mechanism with taxation, social security and transfer payment as the main means. Finally, enrich and improve the specific form and system practice of system landing with reform and innovation. For example, we should enrich the institutionalized practice of having something to discuss and everyone’s affairs to be discussed by everyone, and explore effective ways for enterprise employees to participate in management.

  Carry out the tasks of adhering to and improving the important system through reform and innovation.Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s important system covers all aspects of internal affairs, foreign affairs, national defense, governing the party, the country and the army, and provides an important institutional basis and basis for our party to lead the people in promoting the overall layout of the "five in one" and the coordinated promotion of the "four comprehensive" strategic layout in the new era. First of all, strengthen institutional innovation, especially the system urgently needed for national governance and the system necessary for people’s new expectations for a better life. For example, establish a system of efficient utilization of resources, and establish a housing system with multi-subject supply, multi-channel guarantee and simultaneous rent and purchase. Secondly, deepening the reform and innovation of major institutional mechanisms will not only get rid of all stubborn diseases that hinder scientific development, but also provide institutional guarantee for the major strategic tasks of the party and the country. For example, deepen the reform of cultural system, strengthen and innovate social governance, build a new national system for tackling key core technologies under the conditions of socialist market economy, and establish a lifelong accountability system for ecological environmental damage. Finally, it is necessary to sum up the good experiences and practices in practice in time and upgrade the mature experiences and practices into systems. For example, adhere to and develop the "Maple Bridge Experience" in the new era and improve the effective mechanism for correctly handling contradictions among the people under the new situation.

  Firmly grasp the correct direction of reform and innovation

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly stressed: "China is a big country and must not make subversive mistakes on fundamental issues." In the new journey of promoting the modernization of state governance, we need to keep a clear head, unswervingly adhere to the party’s centralized and unified leadership over reform and innovation, always adhere to the people-centered planning of reform and innovation, and always adhere to the rule of law for reform and innovation through comprehensive rule of law. Ensure that our reform has a direction, a position and principles, and that we will never take the old road of being closed and rigid, nor take the evil road of changing our flag, and always keep moving forward in the correct direction of socialism.

  Adhere to the centralized and unified leadership of the party.The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee pointed out, "It is a major strategic task of the whole party to uphold and improve the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system and promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. It must be carried out under the unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee, scientifically planned, meticulously organized, combined far and near, and promoted as a whole. " To strengthen the Party’s leadership in upholding and improving the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system and promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, we must first strengthen the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four self-confidences" and achieve the "two maintenances", form a tight organizational system and leadership system with strong implementation, and ensure that major decision-making arrangements and work arrangements around the reform and innovation of national governance can be implemented. Secondly, give play to the party’s core role of commanding the overall situation and coordinating all parties, unite the strength of all parties, mobilize the enthusiasm of all parties, and form a joint force of reform and innovation. Finally, give full play to the Party’s ability and role in guiding the direction, seeking the overall situation, formulating policies, and promoting reform, strengthen institutional self-confidence and constantly innovate, and ensure that all reforms and innovations around the modernization of state governance always advance along the fundamental political direction of Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

  Adhere to the people as the center.The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "No matter what we change or what step we take, we must adhere to the party’s centralized and unified leadership over reform, the overall goal of improving and developing the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system, promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, and the people-centered reform value orientation." People are the main body of reform and innovation, and also the main body of modernization of state governance. Adhering to the people-centered principle and relying closely on the people to promote reform, innovation and modernization of state governance is not only our successful experience, but also our source of strength. First of all, we should respect the people’s dominant position in reform and innovation, stimulate the spirit and vitality of reform and innovation of all the people, and fully demonstrate the institutional superiority of socialism. Secondly, we should respect the people’s initiative, encourage local, grassroots and masses to explore boldly, sum up experience in time, create a good social environment for the reform and innovation of state governance, and provide inexhaustible internal motivation. Finally, we should take satisfying people’s yearning for a better life as the value orientation, and constantly serve the people better through institutional mechanism reform and institutional innovation, so that the fruits of modernization of state governance can be shared by the people and benefit all the people more fairly.

  Adhere to the comprehensive rule of law.Governing the country according to law in an all-round way, as an important strategy to comprehensively deepen reform, is not only the internal component of promoting the modernization of state governance, but also the basic way and path to promote the modernization of state governance through reform and innovation, which plays an irreplaceable role in regulating and safeguarding the correct direction of reform and innovation. To promote reform and innovation by the rule of law, first of all, we should uphold and improve the rule of law system in Socialism with Chinese characteristics, incorporate legislation into the overall process of modernization of state governance, ensure that "all major reforms must be based on the law", and provide a strong guarantee for reform and innovation by the rule of law. Secondly, we should rely on the rule of law, use the rule of law thinking and means to promote reform and innovation, and ensure that the modernization of state governance through reform and innovation always follows the rule of law. Finally, it is necessary to improve the ability and ability to use the rule of law thinking and the rule of law to plan reform and innovation. Leading cadres at all levels should take the lead in respecting and fearing the rule of law, improve their thinking on the rule of law and their ability to handle affairs according to law, and always plan reform and innovation within the framework of the rule of law and promote the modernization of state governance.

Wanda financing fog

Titanium media note: This article comes from WeChat official account Phoenix WEEKLY Real Estate (ID: FHZKDC), author | Fu Linlin, editor | Cao Bei, titanium media is authorized to publish.

On the last day of the deadline, Wanda submitted its prospectus for the fourth time. The same thing was repeated several times, but Wanda still failed to go public.

Just before the announcement of the prospectus, Wanda Commercial Management suspended its application for the issuance of 6 billion-scale small public bonds.

In the first half of this year, Wanda lived between two faces: on the one hand, a string of excellent figures were presented to the regulators, waiting to be listed in the capital markets; on the other hand, the issue of the capital chain was directly put on the table, questioned by the China Securities Regulatory Commission, frozen equity, and project rights protection.

No one can give a definite answer. What happened to Wanda?

But expectations for the company have clearly reversed, from the prospect of returning to the top of the housing company to being in the quagmire, waiting for rescue.

On June 28, the official website of the Securities Supervision Commission announced the notice of the suspension of registration procedures for domestic bond issuance by Dalian Wanda Commercial Management. The planned issuance scale of the small public offering is 6 billion yuan, and the main underwriters are Guotai Junan and Kaiyuan Securities.

This is Wanda’s initiative to apply for the suspension of bond registration. In the face of the difficulties in financing real estate enterprises, the reasons behind the suspension of registration by Wanda Commercial Management have caused a lot of speculation, many of which are related to the listing of Zhuhai Wanda.

Wanda’s explanation is that Dalian Wanda Commercial Management terminated the issuance of small public bonds because the market conditions did not meet the company’s expectations and voluntarily gave up the issuance. However, the suspension of the bond registration process of the distribution company will not have a significant impact on the company’s liquidity in the short term, and it does not rule out resubmitting the bond issuance application in the future if conditions are met.

According to relevant regulations, if the China Securities Supervision Commission and the stock exchange decide to suspend the review based on the application of the issuer and the lead underwriter, after the relevant circumstances disappear, the issuer and the lead underwriter may apply to the China Securities Supervision Commission and the stock exchange to resume the review.

The bond has experienced many twists and turns since the application began.

On March 21, the website of the Securities Supervision Commission issued an inquiry letter on the application documents of the joint stock company of Dalian Wanda Commercial Management Group to disclose the bonds of the distribution company to professional investors.

Zhuhai Wanda, a subsidiary of Wanda Commercial Management Group, is currently applying for listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. If the listing is not successful at the end of 2023, Wanda Commercial Management Group needs to pay about 30 billion yuan to pre-listing investors for share repurchase.

The Securities Supervision Commission requested Wanda Commercial Management Group to further post script on the listing progress of its subsidiary Zhuhai Wanda and assess the impact of the above matters on the issuer’s short-term solvency.

According to the disclosure of the application materials, in the past three years and the first phase (2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 January-March), the net cash flow generated by the financing activities of Wanda Commercial Management Group was – 24.50 billion yuan, – 32 billion yuan, – 11.30 billion yuan and – 18.20 billion yuan.

The Securities Supervision Commission requires Wanda Commercial Management Group to post script the reasons and rationality for the continued large negative net cash flow of financing activities, and to evaluate the impact on the repayment of this bond.

According to the "Administrative Measures for the Issuance and Trading of Corporate Bonds" (Order No. 180 of the Securities Supervision Commission), Wanda Commercial Management Group is required to implement it item by item and submit a written reply and electronic documents to the Shanghai Stock Exchange within 3 months. If the reply cannot be made on time, the Securities Supervision Commission may make a decision to terminate the review according to law.

At present, Wanda Commercial Management has not replied to the above questions, but has only publicly replied to some news circulating in the market.

A real estate investment and financing person told Phoenix WEEKLY Real Estate: "If Wanda wants to reply, the principal and the law firm must confirm the signature. After this aspect is resolved, the regulators will agree or not."

Shen Meng, a director of Chanson Capital, said: "Suspension of bond issuance is usually chosen after full informal communication with relevant institutions and confirmation that it is difficult to move forward. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that Wanda believes that the success rate of bond issuance at this time has been greatly reduced based on the current overall situation."

The suspension of bond registration and the issuance of the fourth prospectus at the same time have also raised questions about whether the two are related.

However, a Financial Institutions Group source told Phoenix WEEKLY: "The main body is different. Wanda Commercial Management needs money now, and the money after the listing should be to increase capital to Zhuhai Wanda. The impact on Wanda Commercial Management is that there is no need to deal with the redemption of shares."

In fact, the suspension of the financing of the 6 billion still has an impact on the Wanda business management in a state of tight funds. Recently, there have been rights protection in many places such as Wanda business tickets and housing delays.

Wanda is also raising money by selling stakes in project companies.

On June 26, according to the information disclosed by the National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System, the shareholders of Wuhan Huada No. 9 Innovation Investment Partnership (Limited Partnership) under Wanda Real Estate changed.

According to the change of shareholders information, Wanda Real Estate Group Co., Ltd. and Huarong Capital Management Co., Ltd. respectively transferred 85.7206% of the shares and 0.3175% of the shares of Wuhan Huada No. 9 Innovation Investment Partnership (Limited Partnership), and the transferee was China Huarong Asset Management joint stock company.

After the equity transfer, China Huarong held 86.0381%, Wanda Real Estate Group Co., Ltd. held 13.9104%, and Huarong Capital Management Co., Ltd. held 0.0515%.

The only foreign investment company of Wuhan Huada Jiu Innovation Investment Partnership (Limited Partnership) is Wuhan Wanda East Lake Real Estate Co., Ltd., which is the project company of Wuhan Central Cultural District.

Here is Wanda’s benchmark project, Hanjie.

According to public information, the Wuhan Wanda Chuhe Han Street Project is located in the Wuhan Central Cultural Center. It is a "world-class cultural tourism project" built by Wanda with culture as the core and integrating tourism, commerce, business and residential functions. The project is the largest investment in the cultural industry of a single project in China. The investment in pure culture reaches 8 billion yuan, the total investment is about 30 billion yuan, and the total construction area is 3.40 million square meters. It officially opened on September 30, 2011.

A person familiar with the matter told Phoenix WEEKLY Real Estate: "In fact, it was in May. On the surface, it was an equity financing. In fact, Chongqing Trust expired and had no money to pay it back. I asked Huarong to do a financing. In fact, it was a real debt."

And "Phoenix WEEKLY Real Estate" found that the project companies under Wanda Real Estate Group are basically 100% shareholding, and only a few trust companies have been introduced as shareholders. It is difficult to guarantee that this method of Wuhan projects will not be replicated in the future. After all, many of Wanda’s real estate projects across the country are facing the risk of shutdown.

The above-mentioned fund person said: "The key is for the Financial Institution Group to recognize Wanda. Trusts are all raised money and cannot come out. Investors will protect their rights."

At present, the financing channel of Wanda Plaza is still smooth.

On June 13 this year, the Shanghai Stock Exchange disclosed that the project status of the first phase of the asset-backed special project plan of CICC Huatai-Wanda Plaza was updated to "Feedback". The bond variety is ABS, the proposed issuance amount is 3.501 billion yuan, the plan manager is Huatai Securities (Shanghai) Asset Management Co., Ltd., the original equity is Dalian Wanda Commercial Management Group joint stock company, and the project acceptance date is March 30, 2023.

This year, the Securities Supervision Commission has conducted two inquiries on Wanda, the first for bond issuance and the second for listing.

Listing is the biggest hurdle for Wanda this year. According to the latest version of the prospectus, in 2022, Wanda Commercial Management will achieve revenue of about 27.12 billion yuan, gross profit of about 12.984 billion yuan, profit before tax of 9.303 billion yuan, and net profit attributable to shareholders of about 7.503 billion yuan.

In terms of business scale, by the end of 2022, Wanda Commercial Management managed 472 commercial plazas with a construction area of 65.60 million square meters under management. In 2020, 2021 and 2022, the average occupancy rate of Wanda Commercial Management’s commercial plazas under management (excluding parking spaces) was 98.6%. By the end of 2022, Wanda Commercial Management had 181 reserve projects, including 163 independent third-party projects.

The data is still very bright, but the key question, Wanda still did not reply.

In June, the Securities Supervision Commission released the latest "requirements for publicity of supplementary materials for the filing of overseas issuance and listing", of which Zhuhai Wanda was the first to issue seven requirements, involving six issues.

Among them, it is required to clarify the post-listing fundraising management and red lines, as well as to refine the fundraising management and commitment not to directly or indirectly flow into real estate.

In addition, according to the prospectus, Zhuhai Wanda’s cumulative cash dividends during the reporting period (2019 to 2021 and the first half of 2022) were 13.27 billion yuan, exceeding the total net cash flow from operating activities for the same period by 11.548 billion yuan.

In addition to the huge dividend, Zhuhai Wanda’s shareholder meeting in late September last year approved the "dividend 3.478 billion yuan" proposal. After listing, the board of directors plans to recommend at least 65% of the annual distributable profit to be used for dividends at the shareholder meeting.

The Securities Supervision Commission requires Zhuhai Wanda to explain: the rationality of the cash dividend amount and future cash dividend policy during the reporting period, whether there is a significant impact on the company’s solvency and continuing operation, and the necessity and rationality of implementing this financing in the case of large cash dividends.

The two questions directly point to the relationship between real estate and business management in Wanda’s business.

One analyst said: "In Wanda’s business system, the existing funding problem is the real estate business. The rental income goes to the commercial management, and the depreciation of shopping malls and loan interest go to the real estate. This has resulted in high profit margins in the commercial management business, which is convenient for listing. Before listing, the profits were used to repay the debt of the real estate, but after listing, the money is not easy to do. The problem with the Securities Supervision Commission is that since you have so much profit to pay dividends, why are you still listed for financing?"

Other issues related to corporate governance, the relationship with the parent company, the authenticity of data, and the risk of gambling all require Wanda to resolve them one by one.

"With Wanda’s current business income, if the Zhuhai Commodity IPO cannot go ahead, Wanda’s solvency may be greatly weakened," Ms Shen said. "Zhuhai Commodity IPO has been delayed and Dalian Wanda has suspended bond issuance, which will exacerbate the tension in Wanda’s capital chain and even cause liquidity risks."

For Wanda, the top priority is to go public, but under the many problems, it is difficult to attract widespread attention by submitting a listing application four times. The outside world is only waiting for the end of the year. Before that, this giant ship is still sailing in the fog. If it wants to go public smoothly, it may first have to sail out of the fog.

Sunrise in the East, How to Win – Exploring China’s Confidence from Northern County-level Towns

  No longer stuck in big cities, the trend seems to be turning to the county.

  After a batch of 100 billion county towns such as Kunshan in Jiangsu and Yiwu in Zhejiang shone economically, the tourist army, music festivals, cafes, and resorts have flooded into the county, and even the sports Super League is sinking to the fourth and fifth tier cities.

  The era of the county is approaching.

  When the spotlight shines on the strong counties in the south and Midwest, in addition to the beams of light, there are also some tough and atmospheric northern county cities that are also writing legends.

  In these small cities, which are as tough as Mongolian horses, we may have a better glimpse of China’s resilience and confidence.

  Dongsheng, as a city with a "long story", deserves to be seen.

  Coming to the main urban area of Ordos City, Inner Mongolia, you can somewhat detect her "unusual"; only 40 kilometers away from the desert, but there is the largest aquarium in the northwest; the population is less than 600,000, but there are 146 bars and 439 barbecue restaurants; one county-level city, well-dressed, confident and calm young people can be seen everywhere.

  These conflicting and harmonious elements are mixed together to form a mysterious small city atmosphere: both local and foreign; both real-world friends society, and high administrative efficiency; the left hand has mines, and the right hand is sophisticated.

  Over the years, with a combination of internal training and external training, she has become a frequent visitor to the top of the economic list, and has also gained a kind of Dongsheng experience.

  It is a miniature model of Chinese-style confidence and a new green where Chinese-style resilience is rooted in the earth.

  As a rising emerging city, reading China’s confidence might as well turn to Dongsheng.

  The young man is back.

  Sometimes, Dongsheng Neng and Beijing, Shanghai PK.

  "If I don’t leave, the headquarters will be located in Dongsheng." Wang Haochen, 28, the owner of Chunli Restaurant, a "phenomenon" restaurant in Beijing, left Beijing two years ago due to the pandemic and planned to return to his hometown Dongsheng for a break before returning to Beijing and Shanghai. But in the two years since he returned, he has opened seven barbecue restaurants "with his hands."

  Compared to when he left that year, "Dongsheng is more foreign, and there are more young people."

  According to statistics, since 2005, the population of Dongsheng District has risen year by year, reaching a peak in 2014 654,000 after a sudden stop, turned around and fell to 570,000 in 2015. 1 years, more than 80,000 people left.

  But Wang Haochen found that more and more young people were coming back from Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.

  Gao Liang’s clinic, a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, was located in a small courtyard called "Ordofu" Lane. There was an old tree in the courtyard that was lush. "At night, you set up a tea table under the tree, drink tea and watch the stars."

  Although he has a house and business in Beijing, Gao Liang came back, first because his father was elderly; second, he was "optimistic about Dongsheng".

  According to the latest data, the permanent population of Dongsheng District 580,800 at the end of 2022, an increase of 4,500 over the end of the previous year.

  If you search on Baidu: Why do we love the county seat? The reasons given by netizens generally boil down to: quiet and comfortable, low cost of living, human touch, historical heritage, beautiful natural environment, slow pace, and close to home.

  In this regard, Dongsheng can be said to have firmly grasped it.

  Travel – Dongsheng has a population of 580,000, more than 200,000 small cars, less than three people own a car, and people can often travel within a half-hour drive.

  Housing prices – According to Anjuke monitoring, the average price of new houses in May this year was 7,186 yuan/square meter. Compared with big cities, the pressure to buy houses has dropped sharply, and 1/4 of the monthly income of ordinary white-collar workers can almost provide a set of two bedrooms and one living room.

  Income – In 2022, the per capita disposable income of urban residents in Dongsheng District was 55,863 yuan. This level is ranked fourth among 31 provinces in the country, second only to Shanghai, Beijing and Zhejiang.

  Consumption – Dongsheng has 146 bars and 439 barbecue restaurants 600,000 less populated.

  Whenever the night is low, the streets and alleys are full of traffic, the lights are bright, and the restaurants of different sizes are like money detectors, swallowing waves of diners.

  Since 2022, Dongsheng has invested a total of 213 million yuan, focusing on building 8 Internet celebrity characteristic commercial blocks.

  "Jiajia Qingchuang 1980 Old Street" is currently the hottest Internet celebrity plot. After renovation, this original shantytown has been praised by young people as "having the taste of Sanlitun, Beijing".

  "The government has played a key role." Shang Xiaowei, the founder of the project, revealed that the shantytown reform area covers an area of 13,000 square meters, which is originally a "hot potato" that cannot be dismantled or dismantled. In 2022, the government will take the lead in strengthening and renovating the 102 sets of shantytown-converted bungalows here through market-oriented operation and leasing them out as a whole.

  This is the wisdom of city governors. Between activating urban plates and transforming old urban areas, Dongsheng governors take a more open stance.

  New urban spaces are constantly being released, attracting new entrepreneurs like a sponge.

  The alley "Erduofu" is also a recent Internet celebrity neighborhood. Jia Qing, the project owner, said that this alley is located in the old city, which was originally dilapidated and full of dilapidated houses. In 2022, the government funded the renovation of hydropower roads and introduced market-oriented operations to revitalize. Currently, it has built traditional Chinese medicine centers, homestays, snack bars and other characteristic courtyards.

  The map of the core business district is also quietly changing.

  A second Wanda Plaza in Dongsheng is under construction and is expected to be topped out by the end of the year. A county-level city has two Wanda buildings at the same time, which is almost unparalleled in the north.

  According to the Dongsheng District government department, the project was finalized as early as the end of 2022, at the end of the epidemic, the domestic economic outlook is unknown, whether it is official or private, the public opinion is generally not optimistic.

  In the generally bearish atmosphere of the economy, Wanda bucked the trend and chose to go to the next city in the county-level city, which shows that it is absolutely optimistic about the Dongsheng market and the "buy buy buy" of Dongsheng people.

  "From the start of the project preparation, the Dongsheng district government set up a special class, and the main leader of the district served as the team leader to help us move forward with the project. The business department is dispatching the progress every week to help us solve the difficulties," said Wang Lijun, project owner of the second phase of Wanda Plaza in Ordos.

  "To attract projects and retain talents, the most important thing is to improve the quality of the city." Han Tao, head of Dongsheng District, introduced that in recent years, Dongsheng has accelerated the promotion of new urbanization with people as the core and focused on developing the living service industry.

  Innovative consumption scenarios and new business models drive consumption growth. Under a series of innovative measures by the local government, Dongsheng’s economic vitality is full of tension.

  From the consumption point of view, in the first quarter of this year, the total retail sales of social consumer goods in Dongsheng District reached 5.769 billion yuan, an increase of 6.7% year-on-year, ranking first in Ordos. According to the type of consumption, the retail sales of goods 5.139 billion yuan, an increase of 5.5% year-on-year; catering income 630 million yuan, an increase of 17.7% year-on-year.

  In terms of investment, fixed asset investment in Dongsheng District increased by 29.9% year-on-year in the first quarter. Among them, investment in the tertiary industry increased by 97.4% year-on-year, accounting for 73.4% of the total investment. In terms of breakdown, investment in real estate development increased by 151.4% year-on-year, investment in the social sector increased by 59.8% year-on-year, and private investment increased by 4.3% year-on-year, accounting for 60% of all investment.

  On March 27, Jiao Yun, a citizen, came to the Dongsheng District Government Service Center to apply for a self-employed business license. So far, the number of market entities in Dongsheng District has exceeded 100,000 households.

  Among them, there are 34,921 enterprises and 65,083 individual industrial and commercial households, accounting for 34.15% of the total market in Ordos City, becoming the first county-level city in Inner Mongolia with 100,000 surviving market entities.

  Compared with 2013, the number of market players in Dongsheng District has increased sixfold in the past 10 years.

  "This is the result of a comprehensive factor-oriented approach. There is room for expansion, in-place decentralization and management services, and optimization of the business environment. In short, the operators are optimistic about the government and the market." Wang Chenyu, deputy director of the Dongsheng District Government Service Bureau, believes.

  Han Tao, the head of Dongsheng District, told this story. "A commercial complex in the south came to Dongsheng for inspection and found a phenomenon. According to business rules and calculations, there are no more than 10 jewelry counters on the first floor of their shopping mall. In Dongsheng, there are 17. They said that this shows that your spending power is very strong."

  According to data, in 2022, the retail sales of gold, silver and jewelry in Dongsheng units above designated size will increase by 25.3%.

  In addition, in 2022, the per capita consumption expenditure of residents across the country was 24,538 yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 0.2%. The per capita consumption expenditure of urban permanent residents in Dongsheng District was 36,648 yuan, an increase of 0.2% year-on-year.

  In 2021, the national figure was 24,100 yuan and an increase of 12.6%, while Dongsheng was 36,575 yuan and an increase of 15.6%.

  Even under the influence of the epidemic, Dongsheng still maintained a stable and good spending power and willingness, becoming one of the few "growing" cities in Inner Mongolia at that time.

  Holding on to the strong wind, stabilizing its footing, and having its own climate, how can a small county-level town do it?

  This spring, a well-known retired veteran journalist in China visited Dongsheng. When he came to the Ordos Wildlife Park, he looked at the aquarium in the vast background unique to the northwest, and was "greatly shocked".

  On his personal social media account, he wrote, "Even being on the edge of a desert drought can’t stop the people of Dongsheng from yearning for the ocean."

  Understanding Dongsheng, Safari Park is a good perspective.

  In July 2012, Ordos Wildlife Park officially opened, from making ends meet to transforming into enterprises and turning losses into profits, from annual visitors 300,000 to the first scenic spot in Inner Mongolia with a single annual number of tourists exceeding one million, to the introduction of the first pair of giant pandas in the northwest, and the construction of the country’s largest animal viewing area and the Ordos Aquarium with the "largest scale, largest number and most complete categories in the northwest". Stories like "counterattack" are not uncommon in Dongsheng.

  Building an aquarium in the sand sea, from a cashmere sweater factory to a world-class cashmere town, perhaps it is with such wild romantic courage and decisive action that Dongsheng can accomplish many things that are almost "fantasy".

  On a bright spring day, with the Anji wheel full of more than 70,000 tons of Indonesian coal docked at Caofeidian Port, the import coal business of Dongsheng private enterprise Xinhe Resources set a number of firsts in its own history, such as the first time signing contracts with overseas suppliers in its own name, and applying for import licenses in the Ministry of Commerce in its own name for the first time. This also marks that Xinhe Resources imported coal purchases in the first quarter officially exceeded 1 million tons.

  Just four years ago, Xinhe Resources and its legal entity, Chen Bo, nearly went bankrupt.

  From the small boss of the Internet cafe to the coal boss with a net worth of over 100 million, Chen Bo has been immersed in the coal logistics industry for more than 20 years.

  Fortunately, until now, the company has finally embarked on the right track of steady growth, becoming "the largest one in Inner Mongolia in the coal logistics industry without coal mines", with sales revenue reaching 21.80 billion yuan in 2022.

  "Confidence is more expensive than gold, and I am the most typical kind of person. No matter what time, I always think that I can do it, and I will definitely be able to do it."

  "One thought, two efforts, three perseverance, equal to success", this is Chen Bo’s life creed. In fact, this is also a certain portrayal of Dongsheng’s spirit.

  "Double-digit" increases in urban vitality

  Over the years, Dongsheng has frequently appeared on the major strength rankings, and has continued to advance in a calm manner.

  In 2022, it will rank 18th in the "Top 100 Areas in Western China", 25th in the "Top 100 National Investment Potential Areas", and 45th in the "Top 100 National Comprehensive Strength Areas".

  Recently, the "China Municipal District High-Quality Development Report 2023" was released, ranking Dongsheng 56th among the top 100 high-quality development districts in 2023 (prefecture-level city districts), an increase of three places from 2022.

  When more and more young people return from Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, when the streets of teahouses and wine shops are full of fireworks, and when more invisible champions appear here, this small northern city deserves a good look.

  What is Dongsheng, we must go back to the depths of time to find the answer. Through those ups and downs of the past, we can clarify the thrilling history of a little-known northern town in the annals of China’s economic history.

  In the early days of the founding of New China, our country’s agriculture accounted for a relatively high proportion, and its industry and service industry were relatively weak. Dongsheng, located in the northwest corner, is located at the highest point of the Ordos Plateau, with poor soil and droughts for ten years.

  Statistics record that in 1962, the GDP of Dongsheng region was only 6.75 million yuan.

  After the reform and opening up, a number of private enterprises have been enjoying the spring breeze, growing and rising, opening a new chapter in the region’s rapid development.

  As is known to all, Ordos first became prosperous because of coal, but that was a later story.

  In 1979, in Dongsheng, a company called Ikzhaomeng cashmere sweater factory imported technology, equipment and management from Japan by way of compensation trade, and deducted the price of equipment with product discounts.

  This is the first foreign investment project in Inner Mongolia.

  In an era when people were still talking about whether a company should have a "public" or a "private" surname, Dongsheng has begun to explore the introduction of foreign capital, becoming the starting point of Inner Mongolia’s exploration of reform and opening up.

  In 1991, the proportion of Dongsheng’s three industries was 5.7:69.6:24.7; by 2005, the regional GDP exceeded the 10 billion mark and achieved 13.60 billion yuan.

  In the midst of China’s urbanization wave, Dongsheng directly skipped the confusion and loneliness of ordinary small counties and confronted the sudden wealth and opportunities.

  First, in the late 20th century, the Ordos Group, with its large-scale production lines, high-density manpower, and entire industrial chain, promoted the development of local commerce, transportation, and manufacturing, and laid the foundation for the industrialization of Dongsheng and the socialization of consumer services.

  Then in the 21st century, the entire Ordos rapidly rose due to coal resources, and the per capita GDP once surpassed that of Hong Kong. As the political, economic, cultural and educational, population and transportation center at that time, Dongsheng once became a hot spot for coal mining and selling and real estate bursting.

  At that time, restlessness and composure intertwined, gambling and rationality coexisted, and two sides of the coin appeared in this land.

  On the one hand, a group of powerful private energy groups such as Yitai and Ordos Group began to emerge, writing down the entrepreneurial genes of bravery and tenacity in the city; Dongsheng’s rulers tried their best to avoid the "resource curse", taking advantage of the high coal price to lay out the manufacturing industry, and introduced automobile and precision manufacturing industries in large quantities, laying the foundation for Dongsheng’s industrial scale and quality. Since then, business and the development of manufacturing have become topics that Dongsheng cannot avoid.

  On the other hand, the concentration of wealth, the surge of hot money, and the soaring consumption and purchasing power of local residents have brought large-scale urban construction and renewal to Dongsheng, shaping the urban framework, and the modern service industry has flourished rapidly.

  Around 2016, Dongsheng GDP fell from 94.27 billion yuan to 69.18 billion yuan, equivalent to 2010.

  The big waves wash the sand, the glitz dissipates, and the loss and gain of Dongsheng develop in time.

  The Dongsheng people who have settled down reflect on the past, think about the future, and start the "third business" with a smile.

  Spotting opportunities is important, but seizing them is even more important.

  Throughout the history of Dongsheng’s development, at many important junctures, Dongsheng has been able to seize opportunities and take the lead.

  Taking the manufacturing industry as an example, in the early stage of the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan", Dongsheng, which was making rapid progress in the industrial boom led by large coal and large coal power, took a long-term view and put forward the idea of transformation and development earlier in Inner Mongolia, and decided to plan and build a non-coal industrial base.

  After more than a decade, the Ordos Equipment Manufacturing Industrial Park, which is based on five industrial chains of automobile and parts manufacturing, energy equipment manufacturing, electronic product manufacturing, energy conservation and environmental protection, and new materials, has become a bridgehead for Dongsheng’s emerging industries. Equipment manufacturing accounts for 31% of industrial output value, and the main economic indicators of the park rank among the top in Ordos Industrial Park.

  According to the Federation of Passengers, Chery’s wholesale volume reached 118,548 vehicles in April this year, an increase of 120.4% year-on-year. It ranked third in the entire ranking, after BYD and FAW-Volkswagen.

  In the context of the downturn in the domestic auto market, Chery’s countertrend is due to Dongsheng. Among Chery’s 9 production bases, Chery Ordos is the most large-scale base.

  In other factories, ZTE Special Auto, Zhuzhou Times Windmill Blade, BOE, etc. are all industry leaders and invisible champions.

  With Chery’s new energy vehicles, CRRC Group wind turbines, BOE electronic display screens and other early projects established a solid foundation, in recent years, under the pace of building a world-class new energy industry in Ordos, Dongsheng has accelerated the introduction of a number of upstream and downstream supporting extended chain, supplementary chain, strong chain projects, and successively introduced a number of key new energy projects such as Lanhe Intelligent and JA Photovoltaic Industry Chain Project.

  Therefore, in Dongsheng, the new energy heavy truck industry chain, the wind industry chain, and the energy storage industry chain continue to grow and expand, showing a trend of integration, promoting the development of industrial clusters.

  "The electronic display devices, complete vehicles, and key auto parts of the equipment manufacturing industrial park initially constitute the foreign trade framework of the Ordos High-tech Zone." *******, director of the Investment Promotion Bureau of the Ordos High-tech Zone, introduced that in 2022, the High-tech Zone will produce 87.05 million electronic display screens, 98,556 passenger cars, and 2,755 special vehicles. The products are mainly sold to Iran, Brazil, Belarus, Mongolia, South Korea and other countries. Among them, Yuansheng Optoelectronics’s total import and export volume exceeded 700 million US dollars last year, and the total import and export volume ranked first in Ordos.

  Emerging industries are on the rise, and traditional industries are also constantly being reborn.

  After more than a decade of technological research, Ordos Group has recently overcome the problems of uneven dyeing, rough finished products, and fading in washing when applying the "sky dyeing" process to cashmere products, becoming the only company in the industry to achieve batch application of the "sky dyeing" process on cashmere products.

  "Sky dye" has a history of thousands of years in our country. With the rise of the chemical industry, it has faded out of the mainstream for 150 years. "At present, natural material cashmere products have been industrialized in our brand ‘1980 ‘, and the chromatographic range of natural dye cashmere products will be further expanded in the future," said Jin Yongle, manager of the new product research department of the technology center of Ordos Resources joint stock company.

  In 2022, the R & D investment of Ordos Group exceeded 100 million yuan, accounting for 4% of sales revenue. In addition, the "China 500 Most Valuable Brands" was released in 2022, and the Ordos brand ranked first in the textile and garment industry for 16 consecutive years, ranking 51st with a brand value of 150.675 billion yuan.

  The cashmere industry is Dongsheng’s characteristic industry. The cashmere production accounts for 14% of the country and 10% of the world. The famous Ordos brand "Warm the World" is in Dongsheng. In 2022, Ordos was awarded the title of "China’s Velvet Capital". To some extent, the core of Velvet is Dongsheng.

  From July 21 to 23, the "6th China (Ordos) International Cashmere and Wool Exhibition" will be held in Dongsheng. According to the organizers, this exhibition will further expand international cooperation and comprehensively demonstrate the strength of Ordos to build a world-class cashmere industry.

  "We have industry leaders like BOE, Chery, JA Technology and CRRC, as well as companies with great development potential and good market prospects like Longtong Carbon Fiber, Shanhe Juding Intelligent Manufacturing, Yingfeng Automobile, Jiuke Environmental Protection, ZTE Special Auto, Ruilong Automotive Power, etc. At the same time, we also attach great importance to project reserves. Focusing on leading industries, we have currently reserved more than 100 projects, laying a solid foundation for the next development." Han Tao said.

  Data show that in 2022, Dongsheng signed 107 projects, the total investment of the agreement was 179.50 billion yuan, 258 key projects were implemented, and the investment was 11.70 billion yuan. The five industrial chains of automobile and parts manufacturing, energy equipment manufacturing, electronic product manufacturing, energy conservation and environmental protection and new materials were basically formed, and the annual output value exceeded 20 billion yuan.

  In 2023, Dongsheng District will attract investment as a "first-in-command" project, continue to fight for projects and investment, and focus on precision. Recently, the "Dongsheng District Investment Promotion Three-Year (2023-2025) Action Plan" was issued, which clarified the development direction of the key industrial chain, key investment areas, and what industries to recruit? Where to recruit? With the action plan, investment promotion personnel can follow the map, quickly determine the target enterprises, and achieve accurate investment, and also allow enterprises to settle in Dongsheng District. The prospects are clear at a glance.

  According to the latest statistics, from January to April, there were 221 statistical fixed asset investment projects in Dongsheng District, and the investment amount increased by 47.9% year-on-year. Among them, the investment in the secondary industry increased by 23.2% year-on-year, accounting for 39% of the total investment amount; the investment in the tertiary industry increased by 70.9% year-on-year, accounting for 61% of the total investment amount.

  In particular, industrial investment has a significant role in driving, with investment in manufacturing growing at a high speed. From January to April, industrial investment increased by 17.5% year-on-year, accounting for 40.3% of fixed asset investment. Among them, investment in manufacturing increased by 134.6% year-on-year, accounting for 27% of fixed asset investment and 67% of industrial investment. Investment in large projects over 100 million yuan increased by 7.6% year-on-year, and private fixed asset investment increased by 20.2% year-on-year, accounting for 59% of fixed asset investment.

  Double-digit or even triple-digit increases in these indicators are enough to make first-line and coastal regions envious. At a time when confidence is comparable to gold, Dongsheng can be called fertile soil worth trusting.

  City of "people"

  As the Italian writer Calvino wrote in "Invisible Cities," "What you like about a city is not its seven or seventy wonders, but its answers to your questions."

  Let the residents have their place and everyone have their own place, which is the ultimate pursuit of Dongsheng.

  Recently, the 24 "warm city e-stations" that have just been put into use have gradually opened up a situation among the groups of takeaway brothers, couriers, and cleaners.

  In the room of more than 100 square meters, water dispensers, mobile phone charging equipment, first aid kits, microwave ovens and other supplies are readily available, and many people wearing work clothes come and go.

  "We work for a long time every day, and sometimes we are really anxious when our mobile phones are out of power. Now we have a’warm city e-station ‘, so you can come and charge and rest at any time. There is a microwave oven here, and you can eat a hot meal when you are in a hurry," said Hu Yanhui, a courier.

  This year, on the basis of the 24 completed, 46 "warm city e-stations" will be put into use one after another.

  Guo Liu is a well-known craftsman who has been supporting his family by setting up small stalls for more than 20 years. Recently, the chengguan has planned a new place for him and other vendors to set up stalls, not too far from their original location, but also to rectify the street.

  This year, Dongsheng plans to set up more than 800 stalls in 12 convenience small and micro markets, providing free business venues for flexible workers. Citizens only need to register through the WeChat Mini Program "Smart Convenience Stall" to apply for booths.

  Historically, China has gone through the earliest engineering city building, and then the industrial city building, and now it has ushered in a new stage – focusing on the activities of people in the city.

  This year, Dongsheng District plans to implement 49 old community renovation projects, about 499,000 square meters, benefiting 4745 households, the current project has been started one after another, all renovation projects are scheduled to be completed in November.

  In order to speed up the resolution of outstanding contradictions reported by the masses in residential areas, Dongsheng District has also launched a centralized rectification action for legacy problems in residential areas, targeting areas with outstanding problems such as fire protection, heating, gas supply, waterproofing and insulation, water supply and drainage, damage to residential and surrounding municipal roads, and difficulty in charging new energy. It is planned to complete the centralized rectification of 368 residential areas within two years. In 2023, 188 residential areas with relatively many rectification problems and prominent contradictions are planned, and in 2024, 180 residential areas with relatively few rectification problems are planned.

  Whether it is Zibo, which is on fire during the "May Day" holiday, or Anji, Zhejiang, which is out of the circle with small town cafes, it is ordinary people who live seriously and operate honestly that bring soul and vitality to the city. This atmosphere and value is the "city temperature".

  In Dongsheng, let small stalls bid farewell to guerrilla warfare and live with dignity, which is its unique urban temperature and permeates the government’s detailed management skills.

  Every month, the regional administrator will rate the stall owner’s hygiene, compliance, environmental protection, etc. If it is lower than 60 points, the stall owner will enter the "blacklist", and will not be allowed to apply for a stall in this area for three months. If the monthly test score is full, the stall can be selected first.

  "We organically combine rigid law enforcement with humanized services to continuously increase the temperature of the city and make our city more smoky," said Liu Peng, an instructor at the Tianjiao branch of the Dongsheng District Urban Management Comprehensive Administrative Law Enforcement Bureau.

  In recent years, Ordos City has proposed the concept of building a "warm city". As the main urban area and a quarter of the city’s population, Dongsheng has comprehensively improved urban management, administrative efficiency, convenience services, community transformation, and people’s livelihood benefits around the word "warm". It can be said that it has made great efforts.

  At the same time as becoming a "warm city", Dongsheng also wants to become a city that "comes and doesn’t want to leave".

  Gao Yidong, party secretary of the Ordos High-tech Industrial Development Zone and party secretary of Dongsheng District, said, "We put talents in the shining’C ‘position with the mind of all rivers, the enthusiasm for seeking talents, and the feelings of waiting for positions. Let talents and the city go in both directions and move forward hand in hand."

  On March 24th, the 2023 "Looking for City Partners" investment promotion and "Invitation to Warm City, Introduce Talents to Win" financial empowered talent innovation and entrepreneurship event was held in Dongsheng.

  18 venture capital institutions and Financial Institution Group have provided financial support of 1.345 billion yuan to 37 enterprises, benefiting more than 300 innovative entrepreneurs of all kinds.

  At the same time, it took the lead in launching "talent loan, talent investment, and talent insurance" in the autonomous region, with contracted funds reaching 1.345 billion yuan, injecting financial vitality into high-level talents and their enterprises.

  Since 2020, the three sessions of "Looking for City Partners" have attracted 236 projects and signed 40 projects; 12 talent teams have been introduced, including 63 high-level talents and high-tech talents; the signing intention amount is 4.414 billion yuan, which has become the "engine" of local talent recruitment.

  On March 24, Yin Anli signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the government and officially became Dongsheng’s "city partner". "The biggest significance is that the government can give preferential policies for corporate loans, reduce the cost of setting up enterprises, and stay in the local area for a long time," Yin Lian said.

  The benefits of "partner" are being unleashed.

  Bi Shujie, chairperson of Inner Mongolia Chundian Holding Group, said that in the past three years, three teams of experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and universities and more than 40 high-level talents have been introduced, and breakthroughs have been made in sea buckthorn seedling cultivation and product development.

  A city should really attract and retain people, and be better at doing warm things. This requires attention to the shaping of cultural temperament and the optimization and upgrading of the soft environment.

  As of the first quarter of 2023, Dongsheng has issued "talent service cards" to 115 outstanding talents, integrated with the citizen card, and provided refined services in 10 aspects such as medical treatment, children’s schooling, book lending, leisure and fitness; solved the problem of children’s schooling for 60 outstanding talents, and used public rental housing, talent apartments, and talent hotels to solve housing difficulties for more than 200 talents.

  At present, on the basis of the "30 New Talent Deals" in Ordos City, Dongsheng has formed a package of policies and measures such as "15 New Talent Deals", "Shengdu Gathering Talents" project, "Invitation to Warm City · Introduce Talents to Win" special project action, "Find City Partners", etc., to ensure that all kinds of talents "live in apartments, have platforms, create funds, have insurance, have medical consultants, and have education", and completely relieve the worries of talent officers to start a business.

  "Whether it is the party and government building, the street community, the vegetable market, Zhejiang dialect, Fujian dialect, Sichuan dialect, all over the world, there are many southerners who start families here," said Zhao Yueyang, executive deputy director of the organization department of the Dongsheng District Party Committee.

  No matter whether it is a technical expert who has graduated from a college or university, a college student who has just entered the society, or an entrepreneurial young person with a project and dream, they can all find their personal coordinates in Dongsheng’s talent "map".

  Where there is a city, there are people, and where there are people, there are contradictions. The previous national borrowing and real estate bubbles left a lot of "bad debts" for Dongsheng citizens. In this context, social governance highly tests the wisdom of the government.

  Judging from the "Chang’an Cup", National Civilized City, National Sanitary City and other honors that have been in the bag over the years, Dongsheng has "done a good job".

  In recent years, Dongsheng District has established a multi-resolution mechanism for contradictions and disputes, exploring the "three-adjustment and three-reduction" work method of "street community negotiation and adjustment, social organization warm adjustment, judicial department pre-litigation adjustment, reducing the burden of ordinary people’s lawsuits, reducing the fatigue of judges, and reducing the waste of social resources". In 2022, a one-stop multi-resolution center for contradictions and disputes was built, achieving a one-stop resolution of disputes with "one entry, one window acceptance, full response, and immediate action". In 2022, the center accepted a total of 5,592 contradictions and disputes and resolved 3,702 cases. Conflicts and disputes were basically resolved in the district.

  Meeting the needs of the people is the "root" of social governance in the city. "Our people’s livelihood work is more about starting from a small place, not only solving problems on the point, but also advancing systematically," Han Tao said.

  Facing entrepreneurs and ordinary people, Dongsheng allows "power to be released to the grassroots, people to the grassroots, and money to be invested in the grassroots", forming a city-wide social governance pattern of joint debugging of contradictions and disputes, joint prevention of social security, joint handling of emergencies, joint governance of key issues, joint management of special groups, joint management of service management, joint creation of grass-roots peace, and joint solution of people’s livelihood problems. To solve their real needs such as life outlet, living space, transportation, treatment and elderly care, urban temperature has both the components of humanistic petty bourgeoisie and the bottom line of people’s livelihood security.

  In addition to doing human work, Dongsheng also takes animal affairs seriously.

  To some extent, how one treats animals can better reveal the quality of a person. The same is true for a city.

  In recent years, Ordos Wildlife Park has received 305 requests for animal rescue, and has gone to Ordos, Yinchuan, Hohhot, Baotou, Bayannaoer and other surrounding areas to rescue more than 1,000 animals (138 species).

  Since the opening of the Ordos Aquarium in 2018, a total of 12 species of aquatic wild animals and more than 30 tails (only) have been rescued. Most of the rescue areas are in various flag areas of Ordos City, covering surrounding cities including Hohhot City, Wuhai City, Alxa League and other places.

  With the expansion of "business", on February 22, the only aquatic wildlife rescue agency in the autonomous region, the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Aquatic Wildlife Rescue Station, was listed in Dongsheng.

  Dongsheng always has a warm heart towards people, himself and all things in nature.

  Summer new in the cuckoo.

  Reality has proved that the "decentralized" logic of the city has been subverted. People are more eager to return to the essence of spiritual resonance and the return of unadorned value. Dongsheng, which wins with sincerity, is perfectly in line with such changes in demand.

  Not only to provide order, stability and security, but also to show more diversity, humanization, innovation, tolerance and other multi-value, small town Dongsheng, is interpreting what is the Chinese path to modernization and Chinese confidence.
