Father of Feng Mou, the deceased in the "campus anti-killing case" in Jiangsu:

　　"the saliva on the internet can’t wait to drown us"

　　It has been seven days since the "anti-killing" incident.

　　Feng Jun, 50, hasn’t slept peacefully since her son’s accident. "As soon as I lie down, my mind is full of my son’s voice and smile, and the fatal knife in my left chest."

　　His wife, too, lost her temples overnight and cried herself out several times a day.

　　On May 13th, the Economic and Technological Development Branch of Huai ‘an Public Security Bureau of Jiangsu Province issued an official notice: "At 23: 55 on May 12th, a major criminal alarm occurred in our district. After preliminary investigation, Zou (male, 21 years old), Qiu (male, 21 years old), Feng (male, 21 years old) and others beat Jiang (male, 19 years old) for trivial disputes, and Jiang stabbed Zou, Feng and Qiu with a dagger. After Zou and Feng died after being rescued, Qiu was slightly injured. Jiang has been captured … …”

　　The "21-year-old Feng Mou" in the bulletin is the son of Feng Jun and his wife.

　　Huaxi Dushi Bao and the cover journalist learned that the four young people involved, including the deceased Zou Mou and Feng Mou, were all students of Jiangsu Vocational and Technical College of Finance and Economics.

　　Although the incident is still under investigation, in the past few days, campus bullying, anti-killing and self-defense … … These overwhelming comments on the Internet made Feng Jun feel desperate: "Every sentence keeps stabbing at my heart".

　　As a matter of fact, Feng Jun was not the only family whose heart was broken in the bloody case.

　　Is Feng a campus bully?

　　Feng Jun: I have confidence in my son.

　　In the past two years, Feng Jun has shown his son frequently in the circle of friends. Because his greatest pride and comfort is that his son has gone through the green military camp and entered the university campus for further study, "really grown up."

　　However, May 12th — — At midnight on Mother’s Day, the bad news suddenly came, and his spiritual world collapsed instantly.

　　"At 3 o’clock in the morning on the 13th, I received a call from the school, saying that the children were fighting at school. Let’s go there." Feng Jun said that when he drove to the hospital for more than three hours, his son Feng had died. "What I saw at that time was that the child had a knife in his left chest and I didn’t see the rest." Feng Jun’s wife couldn’t stand the blow, and her temples went white overnight.

　　However, the whirlpool on the Internet has drawn the couple who lost their children into another abyss of grief. "In just one sentence, netizens interpret and guess one-sidedly, describing children as campus bullying and underworld, which is similar to people like Kunshan Longge." Feng Jun said, "The saliva on the Internet wants to drown us."

　　In response to the statement in the police’s initial investigation announcement that Zou Mou, Qiu Mou, Feng Mou and others beat Jiang Mou because of trivial disputes, Feng Jun’s family had sought the police’s theory, and the other party responded that if there was something wrong with the initial investigation announcement, the police would correct it in the next announcement.

　　"Although I don’t know the truth yet, I have confidence in my son. At least he can’t be described as a bully on campus." Feng Jun said.

　　Zou Mou, another student who lost his young life in the case, is also suffering from the same family.

　　A classmate in the same grade at Zou University said: "Zou is very good. He has never bullied or beaten his classmates at school. We are all sorry to hear this news. "

　　Feng is "going to Indiana"?

　　Feng Jun: He has been doing very well.

　　The belief of waiting for the truth supported Feng Jun and his wife not to fall down. But grief can never stop. The photos collected in Feng Jun’s mobile phone include Feng’s enlistment notice, his eight-pack abdominal muscles, and the joy with his comrades. They always sting Feng Jun. "My son has always performed very well."

　　Feng’s high school classmate said that Feng was admitted to Jiangsu Vocational and Technical College of Finance and Economics in the fall of 2016, and then joined the army and served in the Sichuan Armed Police Force. "After he was discharged from the army in 2018, he returned to school to start studying. How could he be a graduating class?" Earlier, some media called Jiangsu Vocational and Technical College of Finance and Economics, and the school said that the "beaters" were graduating students.

　　Feng Jun and his family are trying their best to restore their son on campus from university teachers and classmates. "According to teachers and classmates, children are doing quite well in school." Feng Jun said that through his own channels, he learned that Feng had "gone to Indiana" at the time of the incident.

　　Someone also told Feng Jun that when the ambulance arrived that night, Feng also said, "You save others first.". "If he said so, I understand, because he used to be a soldier. Although he is retired now, he still thinks of others first in his heart. Moreover, his classmates also told me that no matter who is in trouble in the class, my son is the first to stand up. "

　　In response to the rumor that Feng and Zou drank alcohol on the night of the incident, Feng Jun responded to the reporter: "I have also heard that children drank alcohol that night. But since someone has proved that he is going to pull the shelf, I believe that drinking does not mean that he is in trouble. "

　　Feng Jun tried to convince himself, but he couldn’t. "I also thought, if he really like netizens said, is a local ruffians and hooligans, underworld, so dead I don’t feel sad. But he has always been a very good and filial person. The day of the accident was Mother’s Day and he also had a video call with his mother at night. "

　　Meet with the head of the college

　　Feng Jun: How to bring the dagger into the dormitory?

　　On the morning of May 18th, the family members of the deceased in this bloody case met with the relevant person in charge of Jiangsu Vocational and Technical College of Finance and Economics for the first time.

　　"We are looking forward to the school to give us some explanations, such as when the fight was already at eleven o’clock in the evening, where was the dormitory administrator, and why didn’t it stop in time? How did the most critical weapon, dagger, get into the dormitory? Why is drinking allowed in the dormitory? " Feng Jun told reporters, "We proposed to communicate with the school leaders at any time and keep abreast of the school situation. They agreed in front of the public security." He added, "We only ask the school to give an explanation, but we will never interfere with the police handling the case."

　　Up to now, Feng Jun has been trying to restrain himself. "I can’t do irrational things, otherwise I will only leave someone with a story, saying that the old man of that family is like this, and the son is definitely not a good thing."

　　School response

　　The police investigation results will be released in time.

　　On May 14th, Huaxi Dushi Bao and the cover journalist went to Jiangsu Vocational and Technical College of Finance and Economics where the incident occurred. A teacher of the school, who asked not to be named, told me that the school had issued a notice to the faculty and staff of the school, requesting that it is forbidden to talk about the incident.

　　Another school employee also said, "The school definitely won’t let it be mentioned, and it’s all covered up." The employee added: "From my personal standpoint, the school is responsible. If the students had conflicts before, why didn’t the teacher find them? Why not intervene in advance? "

　　A staff member of the school office said: "The media will not be interviewed for the time being, and the public security organs are conducting relevant investigations. If there is relevant information, it will be released in time through relevant channels."

　　The Development Zone Branch of Huai ‘an Public Security Bureau also stated that the case is being actively investigated. (Feng Jun is a pseudonym in the text)

　　Huaxi Dushi Bao-Cover Journalist Li Yuanli Chai Fengju Jiangsu Huai ‘an Report

　　Dialogue with Feng Jun

　　No matter what the investigation result is.

　　The school must be responsible.

　　Reporter: When did you receive the news of the accident?

　　Feng Jun: On May 13th, I got a call from the school after 3: 00 a.m., saying that the children had a fight at school. Let’s go there. It’s more than three hours’ drive from Rugao. After arriving at the hospital, in fact, the child was gone at that time. What I saw at that time was that the child was stabbed in the left chest, and I didn’t see the rest.

　　Reporter: What do you think now?

　　Feng Jun: Besides looking forward to the case being solved as soon as possible, what I want to do most is to ask the school. No matter what the investigation result is, the school must be responsible. Why? How can there be a dagger in the dormitory? It was nearly 12 o’clock at 11 o’clock in the evening when the accident happened. Where is the dormitory administrator? Why didn’t you stop the fight in time?

　　I can’t say that I am the family of a victim, but at least I am the family of a dead student. These are all things that the school should stand up and explain to us.

　　Reporter: Do you know anything about children’s performance at school?

　　Feng Jun: According to the teacher, the children are doing quite well in school. And that’s what my classmates said.

　　Someone came to tell me that this happened that night. When the ambulance came, my son also said, "You save others first". My classmates also told me that no matter who is in trouble in the class, my son is the first to stand up. So they don’t believe that my child can do such a thing.

　　Reporter: What about the children’s performance in front of you?

　　Feng Jun: He has always been a very good and filial person. The day of the accident was Mother’s Day, and he had a video call with his mother in the evening.

　　In 2016, he proposed to be a soldier himself, and I felt very proud at that time. It is said that children nowadays are afraid of suffering, but he wants to be a soldier, which shows that he is ready to suffer. After two years in the army, leaders and comrades-in-arms said that he was an excellent soldier.

　　I believe that the law will give me justice and give him a satisfactory explanation. Because I really have confidence in my son, even if I don’t know the truth now, at least he is not what everyone said about campus bullying.

　　Reporter: What is the hardest thing these days?

　　Feng Jun: For so many days, I haven’t said a word publicly for my son. People who don’t understand the truth may think that this son is not important to us.

　　In fact, I am desperately trying to suppress my anger, just to get justice for my son one day. I can’t do anything irrational.

　　My wife turned white almost overnight and cried herself to death. But I can’t. My son still has many things to prove for him. I can’t break down before things are proved clearly.

　　Reporter: Have you thought about the future?

　　Feng Jun: After the child’s accident, someone donated money to us spontaneously. When the truth of the case comes out, I will donate all my money to Sichuan and those in need.

　　I can certainly do it.

　　　 1905 movie network exclusive feature On November 3rd, before the heating came, a feature film about the disaster of Mount Everest "climbed" into the mainland cinema, and a cold breath of "adding insult to injury" came on the face, and people could finally experience the taste of "ice peak exploration" on the big screen … …

　

　　　 Mount Everest has always been a sacred place in the minds of many young artists — — The clear sky and the snow-capped mountains filled with fairy clouds bring people unlimited space for daydreaming. For nearly a century, mountaineering enthusiasts from various countries and regions have never stopped their desire to conquer the highest peak in the world.

　

　　　 However, in order to step on this tallest beast, people pay a heavy price. On May 10, 1996, 12 climbers were killed, which was the worst mountain disaster in the history of Everest climbing at that time. This "Breaking Altitude" is adapted from this real event and tells the cause and effect of the mountain disaster with a very calm and restrained attitude. Let’s "enter the thin air zone" and explore the story behind this film:

　

Why "Everest": What should Mount Everest be called?

　

　　　 Viewers who have seen the poster of the international version of the film may notice that the English name of the film is "Everest" instead of "Chomolungma", while the Taiwan Province version is "Everest". So how did these names come from?

　

　　　 At present, it is more reliable to say that the name "Everest" originated from a surveying and mapping station of India’s Grand Triangulation Bureau in 1852. At that time, the surveyor was surprised to measure that the height of this mountain was the highest in the world and informed the director at that time. In 1865, nine years after this measurement was confirmed, the then director named the then numbered "No.15 Peak" Mount Everest after the surname of the former director Sir George Everest. This name is still deeply rooted in western countries, as evidenced by the title of this film.

　

　　　 Since the northern slope of Mount Everest is in Tibet and the southern slope is in Nepal, the two places have different names for this peak. The ancient and elegant name "Everest" comes from Tibetan transliteration, and its meaning has many explanations, such as "Mother of the Earth", "Water of the Virgin" and "The Third Goddess". In 1771, the Qing government officially finalized the word "Qomolangma" as a Chinese translation in the "Ganlong Neifu and Tu", which is still in use today. Since 1960, Nepalese people have called it "Sagamata", which means "Goddess of the Sky". Taiwan Province people combined the names of Tibetans and Nepalis, and came up with the name "Everest", which is a little mistaken for being associated with Christianity.

　

Going up the mountain is easier than going down: what is the experience of climbing Mount Everest?

　

　　　 People who don’t know Mount Everest may think that the process of climbing up is the most thrilling, but in fact, when the whole film "Breaking Altitude" is only halfway through, almost all the protagonists in the film have reached the top. The film spent a lot of time depicting the tension and misery of the mountaineering team when it went down the mountain, as well as the moral bottom line and family values of people exposed in this cruel life-and-death contest.

　

　　　 According to the survey results of China State Bureau of Surveying and Mapping in 2005, the rock face height of Mount Everest is 8844.43 meters, which is equivalent to the sailing height of a Boeing 747. As the movie said, in theory, people are "dead" at this height. Therefore, most of the time in the film, climbers are struggling with the gradual loss of physical strength, hallucinations caused by severe hypothermia and hypoxia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Even if you barely reach the summit, you can go down because there is no oxygen or physical strength, and accidents may happen. This mountain disaster in the film shows exactly this situation.

　

　　　 In addition, what the film fails to emphasize is that climbing Mount Everest is not a "feat" that can be completed in a day or two on a whim, but more like a huge, long and boring construction project. Mountaineers often need to arrive at the base camp at an altitude of 5367 meters at the foot of Mount Everest one or two months in advance to adapt to the rapid breathing, the change of pH value and the surge of red blood cells at high altitude, and at the same time, they have to do adaptive climbing between camps. At the same time, due to the changeable climate and poor living conditions of Mount Everest, symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting and dizziness are often commonplace. For climbers with less climbing experience, the use of ice claws, ice picks, ladders and safety ropes also takes time to learn.

Next page: the exploration of Mount Everest is seriously commercialized: Mount Everest becomes a "pigsty"

　　There is a kind of fireworks, called small shops. Hundreds of millions of individual industrial and commercial households and small and micro enterprises spread all over urban and rural areas are "small cells" of the national economy and "a pool of spring water" to activate the socialist market economy.

　　Small and micro markets have a large number of subjects and sufficient vitality.

　　Recently, the statistics of the General Administration of Market Supervision show that as of January 2023, there were 170 million market players in China, including 114 million individual industrial and commercial households, accounting for about two-thirds of the total, driving nearly 300 million people to obtain employment.

　　Breaking through 100 million households, accounting for two-thirds, and driving nearly 300 million people to work, these are amazing figures. In the large market with a population of more than 1.4 billion, roughly speaking, one in a dozen people is an individual industrial and commercial household. Uncle’s small restaurant on the street, big sister’s fruit stall in the farmer’s market, and aunt’s life supermarket downstairs … … In every corner of urban and rural areas, individual industrial and commercial households have mushroomed.

　　No matter how small the enterprise is, it is the "life" in the market. Individual industrial and commercial households account for nearly 90% of the tertiary industry, focusing on wholesale and retail, accommodation and catering, residential services and other industries, which really enrich the "fireworks" of people’s lives. Small shops and shops contain large account books related to people’s livelihood and life, which are the "capillaries" of economic activities and have very important practical significance for stabilizing growth, promoting employment and benefiting people’s livelihood.

　　In the past three years, China’s individual industrial and commercial households have gradually improved their adaptability and operational flexibility by increasing or broadening online channels, demonstrating the strength and resilience of the economic fundamentals.

　　According to the enterprise survey data, from 2019 to 2022, the number of newly registered individual industrial and commercial households in China increased steadily year by year, and exceeded 20 million for the first time in 2021. In 2020, 2021 and 2022, the number of new registrations increased by 13.3%, 6.6% and 2.4% respectively. Although the year-on-year growth rate slowed down, the number of new registrations still increased steadily.

　　Recently, China Small and Medium Enterprises Association announced the economic operation of small and medium-sized enterprises in China. In January 2023, the development index of small and medium-sized enterprises in China was 88.9, which was 1 point higher than that in December last year, and the increase rate reached the highest level in the past two years. Among them, the confidence of enterprise development rebounded, and the macroeconomic perception index reflecting the confidence of enterprises was 98.7, up 2.1 points from last month. Market expectations have been boosted, with a market index of 80.7, up 0.9 points from the previous month.

　　In recent years, a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households have faced many difficulties, but their confidence in development has not diminished. This confidence comes from its inherent resilience, from the struggle of operators, and more from the new opportunities brought by national development.

　　Faced with new opportunities for development, small and micro market entities such as individual industrial and commercial households actively explore new technologies, new formats and new models, and become an important force for entrepreneurial innovation. According to the introduction of the General Administration of Market Supervision, in 2022, the growth rate of newly established individual industrial and commercial households in emerging service industries was strong. From January to August 2022, the growth rate of newly established individual industrial and commercial households in "scientific research and technical service industries" and "culture, sports and entertainment industries" reached 65.5% and 45.4% respectively. There were 5.112 million newly established "four innovations" (new technologies, new industries, new formats and new modes) economic individual industrial and commercial households, accounting for 37.6% of the total number of newly established individual industrial and commercial households, with a year-on-year increase of 1.0%.

　　By the end of August 2022, there were 32.221 million individual industrial and commercial households in the "four new" economy, accounting for 29.4% of the total registered individual industrial and commercial households, an increase of 12.7 percentage points over 2012. The "new individual economy" such as webcasting and Wechat business e-commerce have emerged one after another, injecting new vitality into economic transformation and upgrading.

　　Policies and measures to benefit enterprises "enrich blood" and "make blood"

　　Revitalizing the vitality of individual economy is inseparable from the tax "blood transfusion for oxygen". In recent years, various regions and departments have also introduced a series of policies and measures to help the development of small and micro market entities such as individual industrial and commercial households, so as to help the poor accurately.

　　In 2020, individual industrial and commercial households will be exempted from social security fees in stages, and individual industrial and commercial households will be allowed to delay the payment of personal income tax and social security fees for the current year.

　　In 2021, China will increase the monthly sales of small-scale taxpayers, including individual industrial and commercial households, from 100,000 yuan to 150,000 yuan. For those individual industrial and commercial households whose taxable income does not exceed 1 million yuan, personal income tax will be halved on the basis of existing preferential policies.

　　The implementation of the Regulations on Promoting the Development of Individual Industrial and Commercial Households in November, 2022 has improved the institutional measures for promoting development and protecting rights and interests, and provided all-round support for the development of individual industrial and commercial households in terms of registration, supply of business premises, funds, taxation, finance, social security, entrepreneurship and employment, community convenience and intellectual property protection. In the first month of the implementation of the regulations, there were 2,040,300 newly registered individual industrial and commercial households nationwide, an increase of 14.9% from the previous month, which effectively stimulated the entrepreneurial innovation vitality of individual industrial and commercial households.

　　It is understood that in the tax and fee support policy in 2022, the most beneficial subjects are small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households, and the new tax reduction and fee reduction and tax refund deferred fees exceed 1.7 trillion yuan, accounting for about 40% of the total scale; In addition, nearly 80% of individual industrial and commercial households will not have to pay taxes in 2022. Judging from the situation of various industries, the newly added tax reduction and fee reduction and tax refund and tax deferral in manufacturing industry is nearly 1.5 trillion yuan, accounting for about 35%, which is the most obvious industry.

　　Recently, the policy intensity has been continuously increased. The Office of the Leading Group for Promoting the Development of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises in the State Council issued "Several Measures to Help Small and Medium-sized Enterprises to Stabilize Growth and Adjust Their Structural Strength" (hereinafter referred to as "Measures"). In order to further promote stable growth and expectations, and strive to promote the structural strength of small and medium-sized enterprises, 15 specific measures were put forward to inject vitality into their development.

　　The "Measures" clearly stated that the phased tax reduction and exemption policy due at the end of 2022 will be optimized and adjusted in light of actual conditions. In this regard, Sun Wenkai, deputy dean of the SME Research Institute of China Renmin University, said that this is actually a tax reduction and exemption policy for small and micro enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households; Secondly, it also provides tax relief policies and social security deferred payment policies for specific industries.

　　Spring river plumbing duck prophet. The healthy growth of small and micro market entities such as individual industrial and commercial households is the resilience to promote high-quality development, and it is also a vivid annotation of China’s economic vitality.

[Song Changle/Editor of Titanium Media] Today, at the conference of "Future Forum New Centennial of Human Cognition", Li Yanhong made a keynote speech on "Technological Innovation and Model Innovation". When Li Yanhong came to power, the heart of Titanium Media Xiaobian was excited, because as Li Yanhong’s first public appearance after the Post Bar event, it is very possible to respond to the Post Bar event with this speech.

Judging from the on-site performance, although Li Yanhong took the stage as the first guest speaker, he looked a little tired and his voice was low. In response to the post bar incident, Li Yanhong only alluded to one sentence at the opening:

This week is a very special week for Baidu. Thanks to the concern of friends, we will reflect deeply, hoping to turn the crisis into an opportunity and let Baidu go further with you.

Followed by talking about China’s innovation, of course, I don’t forget to insert Baidu’s hard work from time to time. Li Yanhong said that there are many difficulties to overcome in innovation in China, and the two biggest difficulties are:

In enterprises in China, most of our working languages are still Chinese, which leads to a problem. If the best talents in the world come to China, it is actually very difficult for them to stay here comfortably and for a long time. Because he doesn’t speak the language.

Besides, English in Chinese is generally poor. In fact, people in non-Latin-speaking countries have weaknesses in this area. We have to spend much more time than others to learn what others are born with, which consumes a lot of our time.

In this regard, Li Yanhong said, for example, that outstanding talents from all over the world are willing to go to Silicon Valley if you let them go. He thinks that it is not only the center of global innovation, but also everyone speaks the same language and English. In China, we can’t do this.

For example, like Baidu, we have recruited many people with international backgrounds, such as returnees. When they first entered our company, when they communicated by email, they all wrote in English. After two months, I basically wrote Chinese. This environment is very strong in Chinese, and this culture is very China-like.

He said that the environment in which employees live still makes it difficult for everyone to produce such inclusiveness, and it is difficult to attract the best talents in the world to enter such a culture. Therefore, if we want to become a real innovation-led transition in China, we will face language barriers and cultural barriers.

However, Li Yanhong also mentioned that China has an advantage in innovation, that is, it has the opportunity to try first.

Li Yanhong mentioned that what Baidu is doing now is unmanned vehicles. On the one hand, it needs a lot of technology and innovation, and it takes a long time to invest and work hard, but at the same time, it is also such a thing that will change the existing pattern.

When it comes to driverless cars, he also admits that both Europe and the United States are facing legal, ethical and road disputes.

So how to make China a truly innovative country? Li Yanhong’s answer is: foster strengths and avoid weaknesses. On the one hand, we should make good use of China’s user market; on the other hand, we should make China’s language and cultural defects less obvious.

Li Yanhong finally mentioned that,We like being challenged by others very much. Even if we don’t know each other very well, we can speak frankly about the problems we see. The more we argue, the more progress we make, and the more likely we are to make innovations.

Good morning, everyone. I didn’t expect so many outstanding scientists and entrepreneurs to gather together today when I started to do the future forum a year ago, especially today’s meeting, which was completely full, with 2500 people signing up for the 800-person venue. It really aroused the interest of a lot of people. I’m the first to talk about it today.Everyone knows that this past week has been a very special week for Baidu. Thanks to the concern of friends, we will also reflect deeply, hoping to turn the crisis into an opportunity and let Baidu go further with you.

In fact, today’s forum is very related to the long-term. The theme of the forum is the new century of human cognition. On this occasion, everyone wants to open their minds and think about something longer-term, to discuss the future, to discuss the future of science, to discuss the future of technology, to discuss the future of the country, to discuss the future of the nation, and why so many people are so interested in this matter and long-term things now. I think there is actually a prerequisite, that is, the era we live in today is very different from that of a hundred years ago.

A hundred years ago, China was probably the weakest country in the world, although it was also a big country. Today, we should say that we are in a prosperous time. Only when you are in a prosperous time, will so many people have such a mood and such an ideal to do something long-term for our future generations and for mankind.

So today I want to talk about a topic that I have been thinking about for a long time. How can China’s innovation ability be further improved and how can China, not only a big country, but also an innovative country, have a strong position in the field of global innovation, even a leading position?

I’m thinking, in fact, we have many difficulties to overcome in order to do this. The two biggest difficulties are:

One is language.Language is that every one of us may have this experience, which means that when you are studying, whether in middle school or college, you spend a lot of time learning English. When I was in college, I probably spent about one-third of my time studying English, taking TOEFL and GRE. When I was studying, I was thinking that the world is too unfair. Americans don’t have to learn English, and I don’t have to spend so much time learning a language when I was in college. But we in Chinese, people from non-English-speaking countries, especially non-Latin-speaking countries, all have weaknesses in this respect. We have to spend much more time than others to learn what others are born with, which consumes a lot of our time.

Related to this is culture. Up to today, most of our working languages in enterprises in China are still Chinese, which leads to a problem. If the world’s best talents come to China, it is actually very difficult for them to stay here comfortably and for a long time. Because he doesn’t speak the language.
Our culture in China.

Actually, the second obstacle I mentioned is that our China culture is not so inclusive at present.China is not an immigrant country. Of course, in the past, our population may be too large and controlled, but generally speaking, outstanding talents from all over the world are willing to let him go to Silicon Valley. He thinks that it is not only the center of global innovation, but also everyone speaks the same language and English. In China, we can’t do this.

In fact, it’s not that we haven’t tried. For example, Baidu has recruited many people with international backgrounds, such as returnees. When they first entered our company, they all wrote in English when they communicated by email. After two months, I basically wrote Chinese. This environment is very strong in Chinese, and this culture is very China-like.

Not only enterprises in China, in fact, I know a Japanese enterprise, the largest e-commerce company in Japan, called Lotte. His founder made a similar observation, so he forced all employees of Lotte to use English as their working language. However, I see that the effect is not particularly obvious. His whole culture and the environment in which his employees live still make it difficult for everyone to have this kind of inclusiveness, and it is difficult to attract the best talents in the world to enter such a culture. This is what I see. If we want to become a real innovation and lead the transition, China will face language and cultural obstacles.

At the same time, I also see that we have an advantage in innovation. There are some things that others don’t have, especially in the past 40 years of reform and opening up. I think the reason why China has been able to have such a long and sustained high-speed economic growth is very related to the concept, that is, to try first. Before many things were thought out clearly, our environment and our problem allowed you to try and try and make mistakes, which led to many things being done quickly in China, a building being built quickly, and the high-speed rail being the best and most developed railway transportation system in the world.

Specific to what we are doing now, for example, what Baidu is doing now is unmanned vehicles. On the one hand, it needs a lot of technology and innovation, and it takes a long time to invest and work, but at the same time, it will also change the existing pattern. So we see that there are companies in the United States and companies in Europe are doing this unmanned vehicle.

But we have seen that in these countries, especially in the United States, there are not only technical differences, but also disputes on the road, and there are also many disputes in law and ethics.For example, a question that many people are asking is that when an unmanned vehicle needs to make a choice, walking to the left and killing a child and walking to the right and killing an old man, how do you choose and who is responsible for the result? In our opinion, this argument is of little significance. Even a person can’t make a good judgment. Now we need an unmanned vehicle technology that is still in a very early stage and very infancy to make such a judgment. The requirements for it are too high.

I believe that there will not be so many such requirements in China, which will enable many innovations to have more opportunities for trial and error in China, and we may be at the forefront of innovation in the world.

Therefore, I think China has an advantage in trying first, which is of great value to innovation. Of course, we also have an advantage that the whole world does not have. It is the huge market in China. There are more than 700 million Internet users in China, and our population of more than one billion may be the largest single market in the world. If the population is long ago, it is almost any field, our Internet field and even other traditional industries. When we look at this head, this market is the largest market.

With the largest market, you have many opportunities to try, try and make mistakes and innovate. We have encountered problems that have not been encountered elsewhere. So we should have the opportunity to think first and find a solution first. The generation of solutions is actually the process of innovation.

Therefore, I think that the concept of trying first in the huge market will be two very, very important advantages for China to innovate in the future.

Then, in order to make China a truly innovative country, we shouldOn the one hand, we should develop our strengths and give full play to our advantages in these areas; on the other hand, we should avoid our weaknesses, or make up for our shortcomings in language and culture, so as to make them less obvious.

In fact, I know that there is a project called Yanjing School in Peking University, which is to attract students from all over the world to study in China and Peking University. After graduating from university, they will come here to study for a master’s degree. This major is called China Studies. In fact, it is what they come here to study. I don’t think it is the most critical thing. The most important thing is to say that all the tuition fees are included. In this way, we can attract outstanding talents from all over the world to come to China to get in touch with China’s culture, Chinese and our language when they are very young.

In this way, these people will be given some opportunities to contact if they can make something good in China when they want to enter the field of work. Therefore, in the future, perhaps we entrepreneurs should give more aid to these good universities, so that they can provide good scholarships to foreigners and people from all over the world to study in China. In this way, they will be educated in China, understand the language and culture of China, and have more opportunities to do things here in the future. This is the first thing I think can be made up for.

The second one is actually related to the awards that we will release this afternoon. We will make some scientific awards to reward those innovations made in China and scientific innovations. In this case, I think all kinds of talents will be attracted, which will make everyone feel that being a Science has face, respect and a future. We can do all these things.

Of course, at the cultural level and the language level, we still have a lot to try and imagine. Every entrepreneur here should consider such a problem. Maybe one day China will become such a language, and it may become a much more open culture than it is now. People from all fields and nationalities in the world are willing to come to China and do what they want to do here, so this is what we can do.

What we can do is the so-called cross-border. Today, these people really represent many different fields. People from these different fields communicate and collide together, which also plays a very important role in promoting innovation.

In the past year, the Future Forum held a lot of lectures and closed-door seminars on understanding the future. I also participated in one or two of them. I think it is very good that people from different fields can get together and communicate and argue openly. We like being challenged by others very much. Even if we are not very familiar with each other, we can speak frankly about the problems we see. The more we argue, the more progress we make, and the more likely we are to make innovations.

Therefore, I also hope that today’s future annual meeting will not only bring together outstanding scientists, entrepreneurs and talents in different fields, but more importantly, when we get together, such communication will generate more and more innovations, which will enable China to gradually become a country leading global innovation. Thank you.

The battle between the Russian and Ukrainian armies in Kursk may usher in a decisive battle for life and death.

According to CCTV news reports, on October 25, local time, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the Ukrainian army surrounded by Russian troops in Kursk region had lost its command, and many Ukrainian soldiers did not even know that they were surrounded by Russian troops. The day before, Putin said that Russian troops were advancing in all areas of the contact line. About 2000 Ukrainian soldiers were surrounded in Kursk region.

Since August 6, when Ukrainian troops attacked thousands of square kilometers of Russian-controlled land, Russian and Ukrainian armies have been "fighting" in this area for more than two months. What is the current situation? If foreign troops really participate in the war, what impact will it have on the Kursk war situation?

On October 28, 2024, local time, a Russian soldier fired a howitzer at a Ukrainian position in the Russian-Ukrainian border area in Kursk, Russia. This article is a picture of vision china.

What’s the situation now?

On August 6th, Ukraine launched a well-planned cross-border operation in Kursk, Russia. Before this operation, the Ukrainian army relied on UAV reconnaissance and NATO intelligence support to conduct detailed reconnaissance in Kursk region, and made relatively full preparations for military deployment, assembling nearly nine brigades (including advance troops, main forces and reserve forces) and a certain number of mercenaries. After the operation began, first of all, drones and long-range missiles were launched against important institutions such as Russian air bases and command posts in the direction of Kursk State, and large-scale shelling was carried out. Ukrainian advance troops and mercenaries crossed the border and invaded Suja and Kolenevo regions in Kursk State, Russia. This is the first time since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict that Ukrainian regular troops have crossed the border to attack Russian mainland on a large scale.

At first, there were at least nine Ukrainian brigades involved in the cross-border attack in Kursk, Russia, including the 1st Brigade of the Attack Guard, 22nd Mechanical Brigade, 61st Mechanical Brigade, 80th Air Sudden Brigade, 82nd Air Sudden Brigade, 92nd Assault Brigade, 95th Air Sudden Brigade, 115th Mechanical Brigade and 129th National Brigade (note: each brigade participating in the war was not fully staffed, and many brigades only deployed some troops to participate in the battle in Kursk), among which the first brigade.

On October 18th, 2024, in Kursk, Russia, an engineer from the joint demining team of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations carried out explosive ordnance disposal operations in Belovski.

Due to the insufficient preparation of the Russian army, the troops stationed in Kursk are mainly border guards, and it is difficult for the border guards lacking heavy weapons to resist the heavy troops of the Ukrainian army. In less than 10 days, the Ukrainian army took control of 82 settlements in Kursk, covering an area of 1,150 square kilometers and a depth of 35 kilometers. According to Ukrainian officials, the Ukrainian army finally controlled about 1,200 square kilometers of land and 100 settlements in the state. On the one hand, the Russian army, caught off guard, fought and retreated, organized defense, on the other hand, dispatched troops from many directions to support the war in Kursk State.

After gaining a firm foothold, the Russian army began to counterattack. In Kursk, in addition to border guards, mercenaries and conscripts, the Russian army also invested many elite troops: the 155th Marine Brigade, the 40th Marine Brigade, the 106th Airborne Division, the 72nd motorized infantry division, the 810th Marine Brigade, and even the 22nd Special Forces Brigade directly under the General Staff. With the arrival of reinforcements, the Russian army gradually gained its strength advantage. According to estimates, the Russian army has more than three times the strength advantage in this area, and has received fire support from the Air Force.

Judging from the war situation in Kursk State, from August 6 to September 12, the Russian counterattack was very weak. The main operational purpose was to delay the offensive momentum and troop buildup of the Ukrainian army and prepare for the subsequent counterattack. The United States assessed that Russia needs as many as 20 brigades (about 50,000 people) to completely drive the Ukrainian army out of Kursk; Pat Ryder, a spokesman for the US Department of Defense, said on September 12th that Russia’s counter-offensive actions so far were "insignificant". The reason for this situation is mainly because the Russian army needs to balance the eastern front and the operations in Kursk, and it takes time to assemble and deploy its troops. Therefore, the real counterattack operations are mainly launched in mid-September.

After more than a month’s counter-offensive, the Russian army has regained control of nearly half the territory, which means that the Ukrainian army now controls an area of more than 500 square kilometers. This can also be felt from the official battle report of the Ukrainian army. The General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces issued a war report on the 24th, saying that as of that afternoon, there were 101 battles in the front-line areas. The situation on the front line is still grim, and the Russian army, taking advantage of its manpower and equipment, keeps attacking Ukrainian positions. In Kharkov, Kupyansk, Pokrovsk, Kurahovo and other regions, the Ukrainian army is taking all measures to stop the Russian attack. In addition, the actions of the Ukrainian army in the Kursk region are still continuing.

On September 20, 2024, local time, Russian soldiers were preparing to launch mortars in Kursk region, Russia.

Battle decisive battle and key variables

For the purpose of attacking the Russian Kursk region, the official statement of Ukraine is to set up a buffer zone, but there is no sign of a large-scale attack by Russian troops in this area, and the statement of the buffer zone is puzzling. Later, Ukraine admitted that the main purpose of Ukraine’s surprise attack on Kursk was to divert the Russian army’s attack on Pokrovsk, a major town in eastern Ukraine, which was an important logistics hub of the Ukrainian army, that is, "encircling Wei to save Zhao". Some analysts said that another purpose is to control the nuclear power plant in Kursk region as "an important bargaining chip" for the follow-up negotiations.

However, the purpose of "encircling Wei to save Zhao" has not been realized now. The Russian army stepped up its offensive on the eastern front, and the battle against Kursk state did not even specify the time node for the Ukrainian army to fight the territory, that is, it did not seek a quick victory. For the Ukrainian side, if we retreat easily now, the negative political and military impact will be unbearable. With the arrival of the Russian counterattack, the Ukrainian army will also dispatch troops to continue to increase its troops in the direction of Kursk, and the two sides have launched a tragic war of attrition and positional warfare in the direction of Kursk. The high-level command of the Ukrainian army has made strategic adjustments and decided to transfer some troops of the 116th Brigade and the 145th and 148th Brigade from the front line of Kulahov to the Kursk region.

According to a report by the Russian news agency on October 20th, the commander of the Ukrainian special forces revealed that the strength of the Ukrainian army in Kursk has increased to 14 brigades, and a large number of foreign mercenaries have joined the battle. This action marks that the Ukrainian army has expanded its strength from 8 brigades to 14 brigades in just 10 days to cope with the Russian counterattack.

Now, in the direction of Kursk, the two villages of Malaya Lokonia and Victorov Ka have become the focus of contention between the two sides. The village of Loknya in Malaya is currently under the control of the Ukrainian army, and the situation in Victorov Card is also very complicated. The two sides fought fiercely, and the reinforcements from Suja of the Ukrainian army further strengthened the defense of these positions, which hindered the Russian offensive in this area.

According to the relevant analysis, the place where the Russian President said that 2,000 Ukrainian troops were surrounded should refer to the villages of Pogrebuki, Marie Jefka, Krugrenko and orlov Ka. There are about three battalions of Ukrainian troops, surrounded on three sides and blocked by aviation, drones and artillery on the other side. This also means that all supply and evacuation routes are controlled by fire, and there are not enough means of transportation to evacuate. If you want to retreat, you must rely mainly on your feet. The situation is very bad for Ukrainian troops.

Now, on the one hand, the Ukrainian army has deployed troops from other fronts to consolidate the defense line and find opportunities to attack. On the other hand, it has used suicide drones to attack the strategic targets behind the Russian army and delay the Russian attack. With the support of the air force, the Russian army stepped up its attack, controlled strategic locations, sought the opportunity of decisive battle in this region, and sought to deploy more troops to Kursk to expand its military superiority.

The most important thing now is whether Russia can get foreign support from tens of thousands of people. Recently, there have been many news reports in this regard. Some news is hard to distinguish between true and false, and some official statements are silent. The truth is unknown. If Russia can really get this support and invest in the Kursk battlefield, it will be an important variable in this battlefield, which is likely to affect the direction of the upcoming decisive battle, which deserves attention.

On October 18, 2024, local time, a man walked through a wall in Kursk, Russia, and a banner was hung on the wall to commemorate Russian soldiers who participated in Russian military operations in Ukraine.

Recently, Li Xiaohua, a hair stylist in Huaihua, Hunan Province, became popular on the Internet because of her exquisite skills and considerate service. She was called "People’s Barber" by netizens, and her haircut price remained in 30 yuan, which promoted the surrounding business. However, her popularity also attracted ridicule and slander from some colleagues, arguing that Xiaohua directly ruined the whole hairdressing industry, and the whole industry directly regressed for more than ten years because of her appearance. Xiaohua said that many colleagues came to study, which made it difficult for ordinary customers to arrange numbers. She hoped that more ordinary customers could have their hair cut conveniently.

This is a decapitated dog’s head.

It is reported that,The dog caught a criminal who became the last person to be hanged in Leicestershire. Later, the dog’s head was cut off and stuffed to celebrate.

According to local media reports in Leicestershire, the last hanged criminal in Leicestershire was John Reynolds, who was executed on November 17th, 1953 for murdering a female student.

On December 18th, 1969, the British Parliament voted to abolish capital punishment.

At the scene of Jianbao, when people realized what it was, someone shouted, "This is not good!" " There are also many people on Twitter who are disgusted with this program.

Please don’t watch eating and drinking:

Love the audience …

The next program says: Who did I provoke?

Is the host with the dog’s head still laughing?

No, I can’t. I’m not feeling well alone …

It has been more than 40 years since the BBC’s Jianbao Road Show started broadcasting in 1977. The program went to all parts of Britain to appreciate cultural relics and antiques for the public, which was deeply loved by the British people and even the Queen of England was a loyal audience. There have also been many China treasures.
