CIRC： Investment insurance companies need to use their own funds with legal sources.

　　CCTV News:According to the website of the China Insurance Regulatory Commission, the China Insurance Regulatory Commission recently revised and issued the Measures for the Administration of Equity of Insurance Companies. The person in charge of the relevant departments of the China Insurance Regulatory Commission pointed out that the "Measures" further improve the entry threshold and ensure that "the insurance industry is guaranteed" based on the principle of "letting people who really want to do insurance enter the insurance industry". The "Measures" clearly require investment insurance companies to use "self-owned funds with legitimate sources" to strengthen the examination of the authenticity of the shares.

　　How does the Measures further tighten shareholder access? The person in charge said that the "Measures" are based on the principle of "letting people who really want to do insurance enter the insurance industry", further improving the entry threshold, standardizing the investment and shareholding behavior, preventing improper interest transfer and various risks, and ensuring "the insurance industry’s surname is guaranteed".

　　First, strict access conditions, in terms of financial status, investment capacity and other aspects have put forward more stringent requirements.

　　The second is to set up a negative list of market access, which clearly stipulates that investors with unclear ownership structure or disputes, records of holding shares, providing false information or false statements, and bearing heavy responsibility for insurance companies’ business failures and major violations are not allowed to invest in shares.

　　Third, it is forbidden for investors who have cash flow fluctuations that are greatly affected by the economic boom, have a record of bad investment behavior in the open market, and have had bad influence from dishonest business practices to become controlling shareholders of insurance companies.

　　The fourth is to increase the consideration of shareholders’ capacity building in the industry.

　　How does the Measures strengthen the supervision of ownership structure? The person in charge said that in line with the principle of prudent supervision, the Measures reduced the upper limit of the shareholding ratio of a single shareholder from 51% to 1/3. At the same time, according to the principle of classified supervision, according to the shareholding ratio of shareholders and their influence on the operation and management of insurance companies, the shareholders of insurance companies are divided into control category (the shareholding ratio is more than 1/3, or their voting rights have a controlling influence on the resolutions of the shareholders’ meeting), strategic category (the shareholding ratio is more than 15% but less than 1/3, or their voting rights have a significant influence on the resolutions of the shareholders’ meeting), financial category II (the shareholding ratio is more than 5% but less than 15%), and financial category II. Different categories, different qualification requirements, different review priorities and different regulatory measures are imposed.

　　After the formal implementation of the new measures, in principle, the ownership structure of existing insurance companies will not be retroactively adjusted, but some insurance companies with potential risks in the ownership structure will be given window guidance and targeted regulatory measures will be taken. For the new behavior of investment insurance companies, the new regulatory requirements shall be strictly followed.

　　How does the Measures strengthen the supervision of capital authenticity? The person in charge said that the "Measures" clearly require investment insurance companies to use "their own funds with legitimate sources" to strengthen the examination of the authenticity of the shares.

　　First, it is clear that self-owned funds should be limited to net assets.

　　Second, in the form of a negative list, the types of funds that cannot be used to invest in insurance companies are clearly defined, including the prohibition of using insurance companies’ relevant loans, funds secured by insurance companies’ deposits or other assets, funds obtained by improper use of insurance companies’ financial influence or improper relationship with insurance companies to invest in insurance companies’ equity, etc.

　　Third, it is clear that the regulatory authorities can trace the source of their own funds upward according to the principle of penetrating supervision and substance over form. For those who use non-owned funds to invest in shares, measures are stipulated, including ordering the transfer of shares, revoking administrative licenses, and restricting investment in the insurance industry.

　　What are the requirements of the Measures for shareholders’ behavior, number of shares and holding period?

　　The person in charge said that regarding shareholders’ behavior, strict supervision of shareholders’ exercise process requires the establishment of an effective risk isolation mechanism, and it is not allowed to conduct improper related party transactions with insurance companies, and it is not allowed to use equity pledge to illegally hold shares, related shares and transfer shares in disguise, and it is not allowed to use controlling shareholders’ position to harm the interests of insurance companies, prevent the transmission of improper interests, and use insurance companies as ATMs and other risk behaviors.

　　Regarding the number of shares, in order to avoid similar vicious competition and encourage insurance companies to focus on their operations, the Measures stipulate that, except in special circumstances, the same investor, its related parties and concerted parties can only become the controlling shareholders of an insurance company operating similar businesses, and the total number of controlling shareholders and strategic shareholders shall not exceed two.

　　With regard to the holding period, it is stipulated that controlling shareholders are not allowed to transfer their shares within five years, strategic shareholders are not allowed to transfer their shares within three years, financial class II shareholders are not allowed to transfer their shares within two years, and financial class I shareholders are not allowed to transfer their shares within one year. The purpose is to prevent investors from speculating on licenses and forcing them to focus on the main business of insurance.

　　What measures does the Measures take to penetrate supervision?

　　The person in charge said that the "Measures" clearly stipulated that the regulatory authorities should carry out penetrating supervision of insurance companies according to the principle that substance is more important than form, and can make substantive identification of the shareholders of insurance companies and their actual controllers, related parties and concerted parties.

　　First, shareholders are required to explain the ownership structure step by step until the actual controller, as well as its relationship with other shareholders or the relationship of concerted action.

　　Second, in terms of shareholder qualification, it is stipulated that the shareholding ratio of shareholders, their related parties and concerted parties should be calculated together, and if the total shareholding reaches a certain type of shareholder standard, the shareholder with the highest shareholding ratio should meet the qualification conditions of this type of shareholder; At the same time, investors are required not to entrust others or accept others’ entrustment to hold shares in insurance companies.

　　Third, in terms of the source of funds, investors are required not to evade the regulatory provisions of their own funds in disguise by setting up shareholding institutions, and the regulatory authorities can trace the source of their own funds upwards. If the investor is an insurance company, it shall not use its registered capital to make repeated capital contributions to its subsidiaries step by step.

　　Fourth, in the supervision of the actual controller of shareholders, it is required that the shareholders whose main business is investment insurance companies should meet the conditions of shareholders if their actual controllers change; It also applies the prohibition conditions of controlling shareholders to the actual controllers of insurance companies.

　　How does the Measures strengthen the review measures and accountability? The person in charge said that the "Measures" established a full chain review and accountability mechanism for equity management through a series of regulatory means such as prior disclosure, in-process tracing and post-event accountability.

　　First, public supervision, the establishment of equity pre-disclosure, supervision and public inquiry system.

　　Second, shareholders’ statements, if shareholders make false statements, will not only affect their current shareholding behavior, but also affect their future investments in the insurance industry and even the financial industry.

　　The third is commitment, which requires insurance companies or shareholders to make commitments on the consequences of providing false information or false statements such as related relationships and shareholding funds.

　　Fourth, the special provisions of the articles of association require reasonable arrangements for the nomination and election rules of directors, the protection of the interests of minority shareholders, policyholders, insured and beneficiaries, so as to provide a basis for later accountability and regulatory disposal, and increase measures to deal with illegal or fraudulent licensing.

　　Fifth, strict accountability. For insurance companies, directors and senior managers of insurance companies, shareholders of insurance companies or related parties, the accountability methods for violations of laws and regulations are stipulated, bad records of equity management are established, incorporated into the enterprise credit information system, and joint punishment is implemented.

　　What are the regulatory measures and measures for illegal shareholders in the Measures? The person in charge said that the Measures enriched the means of shareholder supervision from many aspects and clarified the withdrawal mechanism:

　　First, it is stipulated that the regulatory authorities can investigate or publicly question the behavior of shareholders involving the equity of insurance companies.

　　The second is to require insurance companies or shareholders to provide false materials or false statements. If the circumstances are serious, the regulatory authorities will revoke the administrative license according to law, and require investors whose administrative licenses have been revoked to withdraw according to the lower of the share price and the net asset price per share.

　　The third is to stipulate that the regulatory authorities can restrict the relevant rights of illegal shareholders in insurance companies and order them to transfer or auction their shares according to law. If the transfer is not completed within the time limit, the investors who meet the relevant requirements will transfer the equity at the assessed price.

　　The fourth is to establish a negative list of investors’ market access, record investors’ violations of laws and regulations, and stipulate that the regulatory authorities can restrict investors from reinvesting in the insurance industry for more than five years until their lives. Anyone suspected of committing a crime shall be transferred to judicial organs according to law.

After ＂connecting＂ with Putin, whose fate has changed？

　　[Global Times correspondent in Russia Wu Yan, Qu Song, Qu Pei] The Russian President’s "live broadcast of Putin" was held in the Moscow TV studio at noon on the 7 th Moscow time.

　　This activity has been held for 16 times since 2001. Before the live broadcast, the President’s Information Center collected Russian people’s problems through email, website, TV and application software. The president responded to some of these questions on the spot and accepted the on-site connection.

　　In the past few years, in the "connection" activities, the president has received various questions. After connecting with the president, whose fate has changed? What things have changed? Based on the reports of Russian media such as Tass, we might as well take a look.

　　2001: Complaints from fifth-grade students made the mayor "dismissed"

　　On December 24th, 2001, Pavel Cvetkov, a fifth-grade student from No.4 School in Ustikut, Irkutsk, made a phone call to the President. He told the president that he had not attended classes for three weeks because his school couldn’t provide warmth.

　　Putin immediately ordered the governor of Irkutsk to "try his best to resume the activities of educational institutions in the shortest time." Three days later, the mayor of Ustikut, Yevgeny Korneko, resigned. The maintenance of the school was completed in January 2002.

　　2002: Russian heroes finally get citizenship.

　　On December 19th, 2002, Vladimir Putin received a request from Warrant Officer Oleg kozlov of the 201st Division of Tajikistan. According to the soldier, in 1994, he was awarded the title of "Hero of the Russian Federation" for participating in the Tajik-Afghan border battle. Despite this, he and his family have not yet obtained Russian citizenship.

　　Putin immediately promised that he would use his "special power" to solve his problem within a week. On December 25th of the same year, Putin signed a decree granting citizenship to Oleg kozlov, his wife and children.

　　2003-2005: Solving the problem of water supply in small villages with twists and turns.

　　On December 18th, 2003, Karachintseva, a resident of Djegoja levski Village in Kochubeyevsky District of Stavropol Krai, complained to Putin about the lack of water pipes in the village. Putin promised to learn more and help if it is true. But since then, this problem has not been completely solved soon.

　　In the live broadcast on September 27, 2005, Putin took the initiative to mention this topic. He quoted the Communist Youth League Pravda as saying that the problem of tap water in the village has not been solved so far. Putin said at the scene that if the water supply problem is not solved, he will never approve stavropol Governor Alexander Chernogorov to enter the Legislative Assembly. The next day, the village of levski in Jiegejia had special equipment, and the water supply problem was quickly solved.

　　2010: Dr. Khrenov and "Total Fraud"

　　For a long time, Ivanovo cardiologist Ivan Khrenov became a hero in media reports. He told Putin in the video connection that in order to welcome the president’s inspection, the local organization organized a "comprehensive fraud."

　　Putin, then prime minister, visited a local hospital. Dr. Khrenov said that in order to meet the inspection, a lot of equipment was transported from other medical institutions and put in this hospital. Moreover, the patient is not lying in the ward, but a doctor who has changed his clothes. Nurses have to report figures that are twice as high as the real salary.

　　The Committee of the Ministry of Health and Social Development checked this information on behalf of Putin. The information provided by Ivan Khrenov was not confirmed, but the local government found various irregularities in the health care system. A year later, the leaders of the state hospital and cancer center accused Ivan Helenov of libel, but Governor Mikhail Meni persuaded them to withdraw the lawsuit. Leonid Rochard, a famous pediatrician, helped Dr. Khrenov to study in Moscow. Then, Khrenov returned to Ivanovo to continue his work.

　　2015: Help girls get trainers.

　　On April 16th, 2015, Sofia babic, a 15-year-old girl from togliatti, played a short video for the President. The girl with cerebral palsy hopes to buy training equipment. "Please help me, I want to walk!" Sophia said. Putin replied: "This is not a difficult problem, and we will definitely solve it."

　　Putin wishes the girl a healthy recovery. "You are the kind of person who will fight for yourself and succeed."

　　Within one week after the live broadcast, the Samara regional government purchased and installed a multifunctional trainer for girls, and the local Ahmat Haji Kadlof Foundation also gave Sophia one. Now the girl has lived in a very positive way: she held a concert and participated in a beauty contest.

　　2016: The land was finally registered.

　　In the "live broadcast" on April 14th, 2016, Marina Soloma, a resident of Stavropol Krai in the Far East, told the President that she had lost her land registration right because of the new regional bill. On the second day of the "complaint", the mother of several children received a piece of land to build a house.

　　Putin promised to discuss and solve the problem with Governor Vladimir. The governor then said that the regional government would simplify the registration procedures for families with many children. Marina Soloma said: "The government has allocated land to it and even paid for land survey and registration."

　　2016: A child prodigy’s wish has come true.

　　Eight-year-old Ilya Layevski is a fifth-grade student in yaroslavl, Yaroslavl, and will graduate from primary school in one year. The boy complained to Putin that he wanted to study science at the Sirius Education Center or the Altec School, but he was too young to be accepted.

　　Putin said after listening: This is an obvious defect, and jokingly said, "The person in charge of this work is obviously not a child prodigy." After connecting with the President, both schools, Sirius and Alkek, opened their doors to Ilya. According to Ilya’s mother, there, every month Ilya has the opportunity to participate in some meetings, seminars, competitions and science summer camps, and the children’s lives have changed a lot. In the Sirius Education Center, he participated in the development of affordable cars in the Emergency Department. Vladimir Putin personally attended the last achievement exhibition of the project.

　　After that, the boy went to the Albuquerque School and became the monitor of the class. And twice attended the meeting of Skolkovo, Startup Village. Participated in the creation of a sensor key chain, which can be used to predict environmental hazards. Some parts of this key chain were independently completed by Ilya through a 3D printer.

　　2017: Dalia’s life is extended by one year.

　　On June 15th, 2017, one of the most striking requirements in the "live online broadcast" was put forward by Dalia Starikov from Apatit in Murmansk region.

　　She was diagnosed as "the fourth stage of cancer". Previously, she had been treated for rickets and used drugs prohibited by oncology. Her family complained that Apatit’s medical conditions were inconvenient, Apatit didn’t have some experts in different fields, and the hospital was closed, so patients had to be transferred to another city for treatment.

　　Putin promised to investigate Apatit Hospital and told the girl’s father that this phenomenon is also a "disease" and needs timely treatment.

　　After the "connection", Dalia was sent to neighboring Kirovsk for treatment, then transferred to Murmansk, and then transferred to Moscow for treatment by the plane of the Ministry of Emergency Situations. And Apatit — Yuri Shiryayev, the chief doctor of Kirov Hospital, wrote a letter of resignation.

　　Health Minister Veronica SkVolcova reported to Putin on Dalia’s treatment process. Doctors have adopted a new treatment method for targeted treatment of tumors. Because the girl’s weight is very low, the treatment process is difficult.

　　Dalia and her family celebrated the 2018 New Year. On the evening of May 22nd, she died in the Capital Hospital. During this period, famous medical experts from Germany, Israel, Austria and other countries consulted her. The Minister of Health said that although some experts thought that her life was only about three months, Dalia lived nearly a year longer.

　　The Murmansk regional government is also actively helping Dalia’s daughter, who will enter the first grade in autumn.

　　2017: The toxic garbage dump will finally be closed.

　　Residents of Barashha, a suburb of Moscow, complained to the President during the "connection" that houses, kindergartens and general hospitals were all built only 200 meters away from the "Guchino" landfill. In the landfill, the phenomenon of burning garbage and emitting gas continues to occur. According to reports, the landfill has a history of 50 years, and houses are not allowed to be built around it according to regulations.

　　Putin immediately drew the attention of relevant departments to this fact, saying that it shocked him and promised to send the governor and the Russian government to solve this problem quickly. On the same day, Moscow Governor Andrei Vorobev rushed to the garbage dump and said that he would close it before 2021 — — Although the landfill has long been on the list for closure.

　　On June 22, when Putin met with government members, he directly asked to close the garbage dump and ordered it to be closed within one month! After June 23, the place has stopped filling new garbage, started filling the garbage dump, and plans to build a ski resort or park on the site.

80% of the clinical data of new drugs are involved in fraud, which link has gone wrong？

　　According to official website data of the State Food and Drug Administration, as of January 21st, 2016, due to the untrue and incomplete clinical trial data, the number of drug registration applications rejected by the State Food and Drug Administration and withdrawn by pharmaceutical companies for self-examination was as high as 1,184, accounting for 73% of the total number required for self-examination. If 165 clinical exemptions are deducted, the proportion will reach 81%.

　　The staff of the food and drug department said that during the verification, it was found that the clinical trial data of many drugs were incomplete, the analysis data had no differential trajectory, and some data could not be traced back. Other companies deliberately concealed or omitted the adverse reaction records, and revised the test data that failed to meet expectations.

　　At the beginning of September, a report that "80% of the clinical data of new drugs are involved in fraud, and the regulatory links are falling behind" caused a shock. The direct consequence of clinical data fraud is poor efficacy. To some extent, clinical data fraud affects everyone.

　　According to the news, over 80% of the clinical data of new drugs have been found to be fake since china food and drug administration started the self-inspection and verification of drug clinical trial data one year ago, and the regulatory links behind them have fallen behind, and the violations of relevant subjects such as pharmaceutical companies, intermediaries and doctors are prominent.

　　The data of drug clinical trials are of great significance in drug research and development innovation, and standardized clinical trials with reliable data are the key link to ensure drug quality. As the last link of new drug research and development, whether the drugs developed with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of yuan have curative effect and safety depends mainly on the experimental data. The falsification of drug clinical trial data will not only bring huge security risks to patients’ medication, but also affect the innovation and upgrading of China’s pharmaceutical industry.

　　status

　　Fraud in clinical trials is no longer news.

　　The results of clinical trials are not only the only standard to test the safety and effectiveness of drugs, but also the key basis for drug registration and listing. Pei yu, director of the Department of Pharmacy, School of Pharmacy, Jinan University, said that clinical trials with strict specifications and reliable data are a key safety barrier before the drug goes on the market, and also the core basis for drug supervision departments to support the drug listing. However, the survey found that it is no longer news that Chinese drugs were faked in the clinical trial stage before listing.

　　Data fraud began in preclinical research. "Before a drug goes on the market, human clinical trials must be done. However, from the moment the subjects were selected to join the group, fraud occurred all the time. " The person in charge of a pharmaceutical company, who asked not to be named, said that clinical trials often adopt the method of "competitive enrollment". The number of participants in the group will directly determine the doctor’s signature ranking and the amount of scientific research funds in the future. If a project needs 100 patients who meet the test requirements, but it does not get enough people before the planned date, the test may start with only 80 or even 60 people. In the face of lack, data can only be fabricated from scratch.

　　Not only that, the actual operation record is not true and it is also a common means of fraud. According to a survey conducted by China Journal of Clinical Pharmacology in 2013 on domestic experimental institutions, the proportion of non-standard experimental records is as high as 85.7%, which is the most problematic link in clinical trials, and only 1/7 institutions in China have not found any problems.

　　Fraud may appear in any link of clinical trials.

　　It is a consensus in the medical field that generic drugs should be equal to the original drugs in dosage form, specification, quality, efficacy and indications. Some pharmaceutical companies launch generic drugs in order to maximize profits, but the necessary link of clinical trials is often "ignored". The boss of a large biopharmaceutical company revealed that 90% of domestic generic drugs could not meet the original research standards. In order to pass the evaluation, it is very common to conceal data and selectively use data, and pharmaceutical companies even modify data in conjunction with doctors.

　　"The clinical data of drugs are untrue and irregular, and the reasons may not all be caused by enterprises." The general manager of a pharmaceutical company in Zhejiang said that there are many reasons and motivations, which may appear in any link of the whole chain of clinical trials. On the one hand, China’s current laws and regulations on drug clinical trial supervision are still not perfect; On the other hand, the number of drug clinical trial institutions is too small, which is seriously mismatched with the number of projects that need to carry out clinical trials every year, which leads to the overwhelming burden of clinical trial institutions and affects the quality and standardization of clinical trials.

　　question

　　Data fraud supervision is still "soft"

　　The extremely important data in clinical trials of new drugs are often ignored nowadays. In foreign countries, data statistics need to spend hundreds of thousands or even millions of RMB, while data statistics in China hospitals only need to spend tens of thousands of RMB.

　　China implements the qualification certification system for clinical trial institutions, that is, only clinical institutions that have passed the examination and approval of drug supervision departments can participate in clinical trials. The actual situation is often that it is very difficult for new drug trials to enter phase I clinical trials, but once they enter, they will be smooth all the way.

　　Traditionally, pharmaceutical companies often send inspectors (CRA) to supervise clinical trial institutions. After the clinical trial, CRA will collect the approved data and hand it over to the data processing institution for analysis and collation, and finally form the data and report submitted to the Drug Evaluation Center of the Food and Drug Administration for review. However, due to the lack of third-party supervision and checks and balances, hospitals as clinical trial institutions have frequent problems. In order to achieve the purpose of approval, some pharmaceutical companies will also modify the data in conjunction with statistical units. Although the General Administration clearly stipulates that if the clinical research data is fraudulent, the applicant’s new application for drug registration will not be accepted within 3 years, and the clinical trial data of the person directly responsible for participating in the research or organizing the research will not be accepted within 10 years. However, for a series of data fraud problems, supervision is still "soft".

　　Dr Liao Guojuan, CEO of Suzhou Jinweizhi Biotechnology Co., Ltd. said that in the United States, once data fraud occurs, pharmaceutical companies and R&D personnel will be blacklisted and will not be allowed to enter related fields for life.

　　counter-measure

　　New drug research and development must take the right path

　　Since April 2015, a number of new policies for drug trial reform have been introduced almost every month. On November 11th, last year, china food and drug administration also published the Announcement of china food and drug administration on Several Policies of Drug Registration Review and Approval in its official website, and put forward ten heavy new regulations, such as improving the approval standard of generic drugs and optimizing the review and approval of clinical trial applications. This may be a blessing for the creation of real new drugs with clinical value. However, after a lapse of one year, the news that 80% of the clinical data of new drugs are suspected of being falsified still broke out, which has to make people ponder: which link has gone wrong?

　　For the current situation of new drug research and development, the general manager of a pharmaceutical company in Nanjing feels very helpless: formal enterprises take the right path, only to find that enterprises that resort to deceit and cut corners are faster than their own approval.

　　The president of a biotechnology company in Shenzhen also said that many innovative companies that focus on drug research and development have made an innovative drug for ten years, and the data have been carefully made, but they have suffered losses when competing with companies that falsify data. "Strict review of clinical research data should not only be implemented early, but also be promoted. Although the progress of regular products may be affected in the short term, after the normalization, on the whole, it is conducive to the healthy development of innovative enterprises. "

　　Encourage real innovation with the strictest system

　　Some people in the medical field believe that there are two negative arguments to be vigilant at present: first, the introduction of policies should conform to China’s national conditions, and the requirements for innovation at this stage should not be too advanced; Second, the policy cannot be uniform, and some clinical data are just not standardized, not fraudulent, and should be allowed to exist.

　　In this regard, experts suggest that to ensure the authenticity of drug clinical data, we can refer to the advanced and mature practices in Europe and America, and have zero tolerance for clinical data fraud and other chaos, so as to effectively ensure the safety of patients’ medication; At the same time, more doctors should be allowed to engage in drug clinical trials and control the quality of clinical trials; Establish a third-party supervision system and strengthen supervision. In addition, electronic information technology can also be used to establish a database of drug clinical trials, requiring clinical institutions to report clinical trial data in real time and make it public, so as to realize universal supervision.

　　Authorities in the industry said that at present, it is a critical period to control "bad money drives out good money" in the field of drugs, and real innovation must be encouraged with the strictest system. Therefore, it is called for the revision of the "Quality Management Standards for Drug Clinical Trials" and other laws and regulations as soon as possible to further improve the system supervision; At the same time, the internal supervision system of pharmaceutical companies should be established to truly form core competitiveness through innovation.

China’s first near-space solar unmanned aerial vehicle was successfully tested.

　　Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, June 13th Title: "Climb" the China "Rainbow" in the 20,000-meter sky — — China’s first near-space solar unmanned aerial vehicle was successfully tested.

　　Xinhua News Agency reporters Li Song and Bai Guolong

　　The wingspan is 45 meters, the surface is covered with solar panels, and the shape is "science fiction"; The next flight can last for months or even years, and it has the characteristics of "quasi-satellite"; It can be used as an "air mobile WIFI" base station, real-time monitoring and positioning at high altitude, and has a broad application prospect … … Recently, China’s Rainbow Solar UAV successfully completed the high-altitude flight test of more than 20,000 meters, which made China the third country to master the technology of solar UAV in near space after the United States and Britain.

　　Solar unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with completely independent intellectual property rights is expected to become another classic of China’s "intellectual creation".

　　Ultra-high altitude, long endurance and easy support — — China "Rainbow" climbed high into the sky.

　　Recently, in an airport in northwest China, the weather was fine, and the rainbow solar drone with a wingspan of 45 meters slowly slipped out along the runway and flew off the runway smoothly, gradually climbing to the adjacent space of 20,000 meters. During the flight of more than 15 hours, the UAV’s flight state was stable and its attitude was controllable, and it flew in an orderly manner according to the designed track, and finally achieved a smooth landing, and the test flight was a complete success.

　　The load capacity exceeds that of foreign UAVs of the same type, the key technologies are localized, and it has a wide application prospect in the military and civilian fields … … As the latest achievement of China’s "intelligent creation", Rainbow Solar UAV has reached the advanced level in the world with its three magic weapons of super high altitude, long endurance and easy support.

　　20— from the ground; The airspace of 100 kilometers is called the adjacent space. For the traditional fuel-consuming aircraft, too thin air makes the engine power drop significantly and loses its "place of use". However, this is a space where drones covered with solar panels show their advantages. "Relying on sunlight to provide the whole machine with energy and electric propeller propulsion, it is expected to fly for several months or even longer in the future, so that solar drones can show their talents at high altitude and long voyage." Li Guangjia, head of the Rainbow Solar UAV Project, introduced.

　　Talking about the technical characteristics of the Rainbow Solar UAV, Shi Wen, the chief engineer of the Rainbow Series UAV, is also gushing, like a few treasures. "Another technical advantage of the Rainbow Solar UAV lies in its high operating cost-effectiveness ratio. Its airborne system is simple, and there is no need for refueling and other support equipment. Due to the long flight time, there is no need to frequently change rotations to complete persistent tasks. "

　　Solar drones use solar energy as energy and store excess energy in batteries during the day. At night, fly continuously through the battery. "Compared with aircraft powered by chemical fuels, solar-powered aircraft does not pollute the atmosphere, and it is a truly green aircraft and an important direction for the development of drones in the future." Shi Wen said.

　　China, the solar flight "club", finally occupies a place.

　　In 1917, the British successfully developed the world’s first unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which opened the prelude to the development and innovation of UAV in the world. Today, solar-powered aircraft has become the forefront of the development of aviation science in the world, and it is an important field of technology and industry competition in all countries of the world. The development is in the ascendant, the results are one after another, and the competition is fierce.

　　The development of solar aircraft in the United States started earlier. In 1980, the solar aircraft project was included in the national plan, and solar aircraft such as Pathfinder and Sun God were successively developed. As a leading country in the development of solar-powered aircraft, in 2007, the British Breeze UAV flew in the air for 54 hours with a flying height of over 15,000 meters.

　　Without adding any fuel and emitting any pollutants, the Swiss "Sunshine Power 2" solar plane, which achieved the feat of flying around the world, has attracted much attention. "Sunshine Power 2" is mainly made of carbon fiber and weighs only 2,300 kilograms, which is equivalent to a small car. During the round-the-world flight in 2015-2016, it reached a maximum of 118 hours of uninterrupted flight, which is one of the important achievements in the development of solar aircraft in the world.

　　As an aircraft developed all over the world, the reason why countries are willing to invest huge sums of money and human resources is that as a cutting-edge technology product, its technology and integrated industry’s driving ability are quite strong, besides its broad application prospects.

　　"The solar drone project involves many technical fields such as aerodynamics, structure and energy storage battery. At present, its key technology is still a difficult problem in the development of the world aviation industry, and there are many technical gaps." Li Guangjia told reporters that in the field of solar-powered aircraft development, China started late, but it is unique. The aircraft represented by Rainbow Solar UAV entered the adjacent space, demonstrating China’s ambition to occupy a place in this field.

　　Rainbow has a high starting point and stood at the forefront of aviation as soon as it was born.

　　"Rainbow starts high, one ‘ Born ’ I stood at the forefront of aviation. " Through the innovative product Rainbow Solar UAV, the technical team of China has solved key technical problems such as overall, aerodynamics, flight control and efficient application of energy and power.

　　Jia Yongqing, deputy chief engineer of Rainbow UAV Technology Co., Ltd., a research institute of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, which is the research unit of Rainbow Solar UAV, said that the development of aviation technology should not be "born behind". Although the Rainbow Solar UAV started from "a blank sheet of paper", it was in line with the most advanced level in the world from the beginning.

　　Any scientific research progress is not smooth sailing. In 2013-2014, the development of Rainbow Solar UAV also encountered great challenges: the aircraft often "jumped up and down, swayed left and right" when flying in low altitude and strong turbulence. In order to solve this problem, the research team tackled the problem hard. In theory and engineering, it took more than a year to solve the problem of precise control of the UAV under complex meteorological conditions, which not only made the aircraft fly, but also flew steadily and high.

　　"At the same time, relevant researchers have gradually established and improved the design and test scheme of solar-powered aircraft by implementing the concept research of UAV platform and the development of small-scale verification machine, key technology research and scheme demonstration, and low-altitude and high-altitude flight tests of large-scale technical verification machine with a wingspan of more than 40 meters." Jia Yongqing said.

　　"Relying on the Rainbow solar drone and other projects, and supporting the development of high-strength lightweight graphene new materials, new solar cells, new energy storage methods and other technologies and products will help to further promote the development of China’s aviation industry." Shi Wen said that in the future, China’s solar drones will also develop in the direction of ultra-high altitude, ultra-long endurance, large-scale and practicality, and the prospects are worth looking forward to.

　　Data Relay, Aerial Surveillance, Emergency Communication … … Rainbow has a bright future.

　　The ultimate goal of scientific and technological progress is to serve mankind. Only by finding the right application market can we have the foundation and potential for sustainable development. Innovative products like Rainbow Solar UAV "aim" at the application needs of economic and social development and can provide multifunctional technical services and products.

　　According to the development plan, Rainbow Solar UAV will have the characteristics of "quasi-satellite" in the future. As an aerial platform, it will provide lasting data relay and 4G/5G communication, partially replace the communication satellite function, and realize uninterrupted situational awareness and relay communication service with full coverage of the region.

　　For example, a great application prospect of Rainbow Solar UAV is to build an "airborne mobile WIFI" base station, which can provide more convenient, cheap and responsive mobile communication and Internet access services for remote areas or islands, avoid the huge construction, use and maintenance costs of traditional optical fiber or microwave transmission, and lower the information threshold.

　　"From the perspective of extensive economic and social development, the field of solar drone service can also be extended to forest resources survey, agricultural survey, monitoring and forecasting of flood control, real-time assessment and rescue of major geological disasters." Shi Wen said that in the event of an earthquake, flood or forest fire, it can also replace the interrupted communication and maintain contact between the affected areas and the outside world.

How is the quality of Euler’s good cat car？ True comments on Euler’s good cat Chongqing riders

As a cyclist, I have the following experiences and comments on the quality of Euler Good Cat’s car:

Advantages:

1. Appearance: A good cat has a really good appearance and is often watched.

2. Power: The acceleration performance of electric vehicles is very strong, and the acceleration performance of good cats below 90 km/h is excellent.

3. Interior: The color and soft package of the interior are very comfortable in vision and touch.

4. Internal configuration: the reaction speed of the car is good, and the voice interaction is also ok. Most of them can be controlled by voice, such as opening the window and making a phone call to cut songs, with quick response and little delay.

5. Sitting space: The space distance between the front row and the rear row is worthy of the length of 4.2 meters and its wheelbase, and it will never appear crowded. The rear row sits down and punches the knee.

6. Manipulation: The steering wheel is very light, which is very suitable for girls. It is more labor-saving, and you will get used to it after driving for a long time.

Disadvantages:

1. Trunk: The trunk is small, even a slightly larger box can’t be put down, and the folding electric bicycle of the driver can’t be put down.

2. Shock absorption: The shock absorption is really poor. A little over the speed bump will make the car body fluctuate, which may be the cause of tire pressure.

3. Tire: I don’t know what kind of tire to use, and the tire noise is loud. I started to slip at the red light on the uphill twice. Later, I didn’t dare to step on the switch too deep when I started uphill, but I still encountered two starts to slip on rainy days.

4. Sound: The sound effect is average.

5. Seats: Seat heating is not as practical as ventilation, and the co-pilot seat has no electric adjustment.

6. Endurance: In the mountainous county of Chongqing, there are many steep slopes, and driving is rather impetuous. I use air conditioning and music all the time. The average speed is 50 kilometers per hour, and the endurance is only about 50%, but I am very satisfied with the fact that I can run at a high speed of 7.7%.

7. Charging pile gun head: the gun is pulled out within 15 seconds after unlocking, but it doesn’t work many times. You have to lock the car again and then try to unlock it.

8. Car machine: At present, there are not many softwares that can be downloaded, and many of them need to purchase advanced unlocking options.

/

Summary: There is no perfect car, you have to buy what you like and accept its shortcomings. At this price, a good cat is more valuable.
