The joint military exercise between Russia and Venezuela at sea is intended to be a warning rather than a provocation.


  On November 25th, after a two-month voyage, the Russian Northern Fleet, consisting of the nuclear-powered guided missile cruiser Peter the Great and the large anti-submarine ship Admiral Chabanenko, arrived in Venezuela. Subsequently, the Russian and Venezuelan navies conducted joint military exercises in the Caribbean from December 1 to 3 as planned. According to senior naval officials, the Russian-Russian joint exercise aims at technical and communication exchanges around joint search and rescue, patrol, drug control, anti-terrorism and anti-air operations. This is the first time since the end of the Cold War that Russian troops have "approached" the United States so closely.


  The Russian fleet entered the "backyard" of the United States for the first time after the Cold War. Although the location of the military exercise was sensitive, the course setting was very low-key


  For some time, the relationship between Russia and the United States has been tense around the deployment of anti-missile systems in Eastern Europe and the conflict in South Ossetia. The biggest attraction of this exercise is that this is the first time that the Russian navy has shown its strength near the US coast after the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Although both Russia and Venezuela have stated in advance that the exercise is "not aimed at a third country, is not aggressive and has no political significance", due to the sensitivity of the military exercise location and the fact that Russian President Dmitry Medvedev personally "supervised the array", it naturally attracted widespread attention including western countries.


  The Caribbean has always been the "bridgehead" for the United States to control Latin America economically and militarily, and it is also the "soft rib" for the United States in its global military deployment. Although the "base camp" of the US Fourth Fleet is in the Caribbean, the US fleet is also unimpeded in the Caribbean without any threatening opponents. However, if the Russian navy takes Venezuela as its supply base and often patrols or holds military exercises in this area, the absolute superiority of the US navy in the Caribbean will be greatly weakened, and its military deterrence against Latin America will also be greatly reduced.


  Although the location of the military exercise is sensitive, it is relatively low-key from the perspective of the courses set up by the Russian and Russian military exercises. It is mainly routine and low-intensity combat courses such as air defense exercises, fuel supply, ship tracking, coordinated operations with helicopters and fighters, and anti-terrorism and drug trafficking. There are no hard projects such as attacking the formation of maritime aircraft carriers, amphibious landing, and anti-landing.


  According to the Venezuelan navy, through the exercise, we can learn the knowledge of communication system and weapon operation and use from the experienced Russian navy, and enhance the defense capability of the Venezuelan navy. In the words of Russian defense experts, this is first and foremost a declarative action by the Russian navy. In other words, Russia wants to tell the United States: "If you enter our territory, we will also enter your territory."


  Of course, for the United States and Russia, no one can bear the serious consequences caused by the breakdown of bilateral relations. Therefore, the two countries must try to keep the relationship basically stable while launching a contest.


  The nuclear-powered guided missile cruiser "Peter the Great" starred. Although it did not mean to "provoke" the United States, it was a reminder.


  Judging from the participating forces, the Russian side dispatched the flagship of the Northern Fleet, the heavy nuclear-powered guided missile cruiser "Peter the Great", the large anti-submarine ship "Admiral Chabanenko" and two support ships, with a total of about 1,600 people. The Venezuelan side sent three frigates, an amphibious transport ship, four patrol boats, four coast guard boats, a naval aviation unit and a Su -30MK2 fighter brigade, with a total number of about 700 people. In the military exercise on the 1st, the two sides took the "Peter the Great" as the flagship and launched a "common defense" coordination exercise within the range of 28 km to 370 km.


  In fact, the Russian-Russian joint performance plan has long been intentional. However, after the conflict between Russia and Georgia, this plan has been greatly changed. Originally, Russia only planned to send four surface boats of the Pacific Fleet to visit, but now it has added heavyweight strategic forces including the flagship cruiser "Peter the Great" of the Northern Fleet, and the meaning is self-evident.


  As the flagship of the Northern Fleet, the "Peter the Great" with a displacement of 26,000 tons has a variety of weapons, including 20 "Granite" cruise missiles capable of assembling nuclear warheads, 12 "Reef" air defense missiles and 16 "Blade" near-defense missiles. It is said that all the missiles it carries add up to 520. Because of the nuclear power plant, theoretically, the ship has almost unlimited endurance, so its combat radius can also reach any distance, and it can carry out ocean-going operations without replenishment from overseas bases. The cruiser "Peter the Great" is the only nuclear-powered cruiser currently in service in the Russian Navy and the only one left in the world. Its "superb martial arts" is not only the "patron saint" of the aircraft carrier "Kuznetsov", but also bears the historical mission of revitalizing the Russian Navy.


  The Russian "Admiral Chabanenko" large anti-submarine destroyer is the only achievement of the fearless class II destroyer. Admiral of the fleet, commander-in-chief of the Russian navy, called this ship and the heavy nuclear-powered guided missile cruiser "Peter the Great" Russia’s main battle ship in the 21st century, which shows its fighting capacity.


  It should be said that these two ships are the essence of Russian surface naval forces, and their maritime combat capability is also at the top level in the world. Sending these two ships across the ocean for a long voyage, and visiting more than 20 countries on the way to Venezuela in the Caribbean for a joint maritime military exercise, Russia is actually reminding the United States and the world that although it is still in the stage of military recovery, the Russian navy is still a maritime force that cannot be ignored.


  On the surface, the US military is "dismissive", but in fact, it is like a throat, monitoring the whole process.


  The reaction of the United States to Russia’s military exercise in its backyard is unusually calm. Pentagon officials said that they are not concerned about this military exercise because the United States holds similar exercises with many countries around the world every year. US State Department spokesman McCormack even expressed doubts about the Russian navy’s ability to sail, and joked that "the Russian army should take several tugboats on its voyage."


  However, the superficial indifference of the United States is more like pretending to be calm. Since the departure of the Russian fleet, the seemingly "dismissive" US side has paid close attention to it. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization has sent reconnaissance planes to "accompany" the fleet many times along the way. With the increasingly anti-American tendency in Latin America in recent years, the United States has paid more and more attention to this region. The rebuilding of the 4th Fleet in the United States is to facilitate rapid response to various events in the backyard.


  The intensification of military confrontation between Russia and the United States has caused some media to worry about the "new cold war." However, under the current circumstances, the difference between Russian naval forces and the United States is still very wide, and it is difficult to pose a real threat to them. The Russian-Russian joint military exercise will not necessarily become the fuse of the all-round arms race and the new "cold war", and the tense confrontation will not last long. In this sense, the US side’s "flat response" may be to avoid aggravation of tensions. The Russian side has repeatedly stated that the exercise is an established plan and is not aimed at anyone.


  Perhaps because of this, Russia’s return to Latin America with great fanfare is actually "more empty than real". Although its move makes the United States feel like a sore throat, how the two sides wrestle in Latin America in the future depends on the warm and cold relations between the two countries. If the relationship between Russia and western countries cannot be substantially improved, it does not rule out that the wrestling between the two sides in Latin America will further heat up.


  Russia, Venezuela and the United States are all "calm", but the western media are "enthusiastic", adding fuel to the flames.


  If Russia’s arms sales to Venezuela are considered as ordinary cooperation, then the joint military exercise between the Russian Committee and the navy is tantamount to a blatant challenge to the United States in the eyes of many western media. Different from the low-key of the three parties, the attention of the western media to the exercise can be described as "enthusiastic", which is inevitably suspected of adding fuel to the fire. For a series of actions carried out by Russia "openly under the eyes of Washington", AFP and other western media believe that this is undoubtedly a "provocation" against the United States.


  The British "Times" reported that the Russian naval exercise held in the backyard of the United States was intended to challenge Obama when he took office as president of the United States. The BBC pointed out that the joint military exercise between Venezuela and Russia will arouse great concern in the United States and may lead to further tension between the United States and Russia. The Nihon Keizai Shimbun said that Russia quickly approached Latin American countries and expanded its territory in the backyard of the United States.


  In fact, bilateral or multilateral military exercises are an important way to enhance mutual understanding and trust among countries, which are often held in the world at present. It is nothing new. In the past, some participating countries often made relevant introductions and publicity, but due to the inherent particularity of military exercises, people always have a lingering mystery about joint military exercises.


  Functionally, joint military exercises are an important way to show the country’s political stance and enhance bilateral and multilateral mutual trust and cooperation. In international politics, countries not only need to publicize their political opinions through diplomatic channels, but also need to show their political determination and policy orientation through other means, including military channels.


  In addition, joint military exercise is an important measure to strengthen the combat readiness of the army and enhance the cooperative combat capability of the joint army. It is very difficult for foreign armies to cooperate closely and act in concert. Exercise is the highest form of military training and an important means to improve the level of combat readiness. Through joint military exercises, it is helpful to find and reduce the disharmony between armies, strengthen the level of combat readiness, and enhance the ability of joint forces to cooperate closely and cooperate with each other.


  Therefore, it is an effective means to cool down the world’s "hot spots" by looking at the problems rationally and analyzing them responsibly. In this sense, abandoning the cold war mentality is not just a matter between countries. At present, the trend of multipolarization in the world is irreversible. In this process, the balance of power will change, but it is more important to gradually form a new international code of conduct and handle international affairs with the new code. As a pole in the emerging multipolar world, Russia will inevitably strengthen its influence in various ways and defend its dignity as a great power with new norms.

Dong Mingzhu’s domineering side leakage: I paid for Gree employees with two rooms, one living room and a car.

[Observer Network Synthesis] Dong Mingzhu was once again domineering. Yesterday (February 21st), Dong Mingzhu announced a decision in an interview with the People’s Daily client that she would let every employee live in two rooms and one living room.

In addition to the house, Gree also gives employees incentives such as sending mobile phones and raising salaries. Dong Mingzhu also told reporters in the interview that when Gree cars were produced, "then I will give them".

Dong Mingzhu was interviewed.

Yesterday (February 21st), Dong Mingzhu announced a decision in an interview with the People’s Daily client that she would let every employee live in two rooms and one living room.In the interview, Dong Mingzhu admitted that Gree employees are most worried about the house at present, and she will let all Gree employees enjoy two rooms and one living room in the next few years, and she will pay for it. Dong Mingzhu then further explained that as long as the employees don’t leave, when they retire, the house will belong to the employees themselves.

This is not the first time that Gree has helped employees to distribute houses, as pointed out in a press release issued by Gree official website on November 24th last year. As early as 2005, Gree Electric invested 200 million yuan to establish the first phase of Kangleyuan, an employee living area. The park has a building area of over 120,000 square meters and can accommodate more than 10,000 employees. In 2014, the second phase of Kangleyuan, covering an area of nearly 40,000 square meters and spending 400 million yuan, has also been put into use.

Kangleyuan pictures

Gree’s move is "very local tyrant" and very real, which reminds people of the measures of housing allocation in the planned economy era. Big companies such as Alibaba and Tencent also use the same method to retain excellent employees. The Paper reported in March last year that Ma Yun found Greentown Development Real Estate Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Song Weiping, and built 380 houses on a plot at Wenyi West Road, Chang ‘er Road, Hangzhou, and sold them to his employees. The price of Ali’s interior room is only 60% of the market price.

Tencent’s plan to help employees buy houses was implemented earlier. According to the Beijing News, Tencent launched the housing plan in June 2011, and will invest 1 billion yuan to provide the first set of interest-free loans for qualified employees in three years. Employees only need to issue a house purchase contract and submit a personal credit inquiry report issued by the central bank, and do not need other physical guarantees.

In 2015, the original plan was upgraded. In the first-class cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, the amount of interest-free loans has increased from 300,000 yuan to 500,000 yuan; In addition to the above four cities, the second category of cities has increased from 200,000 yuan to 250,000 yuan.

In addition to sending a house, as a manufacturing giant, Gree’s other welfare policies are even more varied. According to Nanfang Daily, Gree Electric has decided to increase the salary of every employee who has worked for three months by 1000 yuan.

Gree salary increase notice

Subsequently, the person in charge of the marketing department of Gree Electric confirmed the reliability of the content. "This salary increase involves about 70,000 employees, and the company’s per capita efficiency is constantly improving, so we should share the labor results with you." According to the number of people, Gree Electric will increase its expenditure by 70 million per month.

But not every benefit is popular. Gree Electric gave the latest Gree mobile phone 2nd generation to employees as a Spring Festival benefit, but it seems that some employees didn’t "buy it". According to the news of China Business News, a large number of second-hand Gree mobile phones were sold on the Internet, and some sellers claimed to be Gree employees.

According to the inquiry of Observer.com, there are indeed a large number of advertisements selling Gree second-generation mobile phones on the second-hand online trading platform "Xianyu.com", and the price is generally "cut by half".

Screenshot of salted fish net

Gree officially responded that it should not be sold by employees. Moreover, the mobile phone is a company’s welfare, not a deduction, but also hopes to motivate employees to use their own products. As for the problem that mobile phones are rarely seen in the market, Gree insiders told reporters that Gree mobile phones are all self-produced, and at present they are only sold in a small range, online platforms and internal channels. "The overall production capacity is very limited, in order to ensure quality."

He also revealed that at present, the proportion of Gree employees using Gree mobile phones is not very high. "Because the mobile phone production capacity is not large, many employees have never seen it themselves, and employees are very curious. Some core employees of the company have experienced it first."

The possible sellers are related manufacturers of Gree, and some sellers claim that their Gree mobile phones are paid off by Gree related parties at the time of checkout.

In addition to mobile phones, there may be "Gree cars" in the future. Gree Group announced on the evening of February 20th that the company intends to sign a Cooperation Agreement with Zhuhai Yinlong, and the total amount of mutual priority procurement between the two parties shall not exceed 20 billion yuan.

It seems that the failure of Gree’s acquisition of Zhuhai Yinlong last year did not affect Dong Mingzhu’s confidence in entering the automobile industry.Dong Mingzhu also told reporters in the interview that when Gree cars were produced, "then I will give them".

Automobile Museum: Wind on Wheels

Reporter | Liu Zhaohui

  Do you still remember the first car you owned? In the memory of many people, their well-off life became clear with the speed of the wheels. The former Xiali, Santana, and Fukang… were the active attempts of Chinese automakers to bring cars into people’s lives, and also marked the beginning of the diversified production of automobiles in New China.

  From the height of an era, these cars that have now entered the museum show a living historical section of China’s economic take-off since the reform and opening up. And people also feel their lives and struggles intertwined with the development of the country in these base colors of the rolling wheels of the era…

The earliest and last "Poussin"



  The heat of midsummer has not dampened the enthusiasm of Shanghai citizens to "breathe" on weekends. On a blazing Sunday, the parking lot in front of the Shanghai Automobile Museum in Anting Town, Jiading District, was full of private cars of various brands and styles from visiting citizens. If you want to look for the imprint of the beginning of China’s family car era, if you want to find the imprint of China’s family car era, you can find it in this automobile museum. The two Santana cars called "Old Pusang" on display here have witnessed the unforgettable development of China’s automobile industry and China’s family car.

  The Chinese must be no stranger to the Volkswagen Santana sedan. For many people who are a little older, the Volkswagen Old Poussin is the "divine car" in their minds, which is a kind of hard-to-part feeling. Their memories of private cars began with the old Poussin.

  A black Santana sedan on display in the museum is as charming as an old gentleman from Shanghai. The license plate of the "1983 SAN" indicates its identity – it is a Santana assembled in Shanghai in 1983 in all imported parts. A lot happened in 1983, and the biggest event for the Chinese auto industry was the establishment of a joint venture between Shanghai Automobile Factory and what was then West German Volkswagen, called "Shanghai Volkswagen", and the first product of the joint venture was the Santana. At that time, no one could have predicted that the name of this car originated from a whirlwind in California called "SANTANA", which actually blew the whirlwind of family cars in China and became popular for nearly 30 years. It opened the door to the dream of owning a car for countless Chinese families, became synonymous with family cars, and changed people’s life patterns.

  The overall shape of this Santana, produced 37 years ago, is not much different from the old Poussin we later saw on the market. The lines and corners of the whole car are square, but there are differences in some details such as lights and grille. There is a special "Shanghai" logo on the front intake grille of this Poussin, indicating that the vehicle is assembled at the Shanghai Automobile Factory. Although the internal configuration of this car is really the same as that of today’s family cars, such as the four-speed manual transmission and mechanical steering wheel, there is not so much auxiliary technology, but it can be said to be very excellent at the level of the year. Due to the high chassis, high horsepower, and a large fuel tank that can hold 60 liters of gasoline, Santana was very suitable for driving in China’s unsatisfactory road conditions at that time, and the advertising slogan "Own Santana, you are not afraid of traveling all over the world" also spread to thousands of families.

  Xin Chang, a full-time lecturer at the Shanghai Automobile Museum, told reporters that all the parts of the first batch of Santana assembled in Shanghai were imported from Germany, which was actually no different from imported vehicles. Santana, which inherited German quality, also started its own brand at that time with solid leather and durability. At that time, the price of Santana assembled with imported parts was also relatively expensive, costing nearly 200,000 yuan a piece, which was not affordable to ordinary people. However, with the domestic ability to produce parts independently, the price of Santana was gradually reduced, and eventually became the most classic "national car" for Chinese families. Xin Chang remembers that Poussin sold for 55,000 yuan a piece at its cheapest.

  Santana opened the prelude to the development of Chinese automobiles in the way of "joint venture production, market for technology", from the initial semi-bulk assembly, to the production of each manufacturing link to gradually achieve high standards, and then to achieve full localization and reach the international manufacturing level, laying the foundation for the independent development and joint venture of China’s automobile industry. Shanghai Volkswagen has launched Santana 2000, Santana 3000 and Santana Vista models one after another through technical research and digestion of Santana, but the sales of Pusang are still unable to shake. Just before the production is about to stop in 2012, there is even news that Pusang will increase the price to pick up the car, which is enough to see Pusang’s status in people’s hearts.

  From the original Poussin, to the Poussin, which was constantly upgraded in technology and configuration, Santana has always been the kind of square-headed image, during which many other car brands are rising and declining, but Santana is still the classic Santana. In the past 30 years, Poussin has been the responsibility of Volkswagen’s domestic sales in China, creating a total sales miracle of 3,213,710 vehicles. The total sales volume of the whole series has exceeded 5 million vehicles, making Santana the highest-owned car brand in China.

  A dynasty always comes to an end. Due to the appearance and accessories that could not keep up with the development of the times, in 2012, Shanghai Volkswagen officially discontinued the Poussin model. This classic model with a high chassis and a square front face was officially withdrawn from the market, replaced by the new Santana developed on a new platform. In the Shanghai Automobile Museum, a white Poussin that was the last batch to be discontinued in 2012 became the last witness of the "Poussin Dynasty".

  The earliest and last Pusang are transformed into a time-space tunnel spanning three decades in the Shanghai Automobile Museum. Those days with Santana are like a flood in the memory of visitors. Mr. Gao, a visitor, said of his former car, Santana: "He is an important friend that I will never forget in my life."

  In the early 1990s, at the age of 30, Mr. Gao decided to quit his original unit and go into business, and the Poussin he bought was his most loyal partner in family life and business. The Santana had been in operation for nine years. During these nine years, he worked hard for the Gao family "full attendance", but later the needs of business made Mr. Gao have to bid farewell to the old friend. He said: "When I saw its second owner drive it away, my heart was sore." He looked at the white Poussin in the exhibition hall, and his eyes seemed to see the old friend who had accompanied him again. It was a simple but deep feeling.

  The Poussin in the exhibition hall reminded some Santana owners of their own struggles, and some people who had never owned Santana also inexplicably developed an emotion for it. It was not so much that people were reluctant to part with Santana, but rather their own stories and feelings about youth and struggle along the way.

  Next to the Shanghai Automobile Museum is the "EV-AI Smart Port", which shows the life of the most fashionable electric vehicles at present, and the Expo Road at the entrance is also the test section of autonomous driving of Shanghai’s intelligent networked vehicles. Inside and outside the museum are the historical records and future visions of Chinese family car life. If Pusang had eyes to see out the window, he should be relieved.

Drive to a well-off life



  In the 1990s, Santana, Jetta and Fukang were collectively referred to as the "old three" of domestic cars and were the main force in the domestic family car market. Tang Guohua of Changsha, Hunan Province, has collected the first Fukang car that rolled off the production line in his "Hexi Automobile Exhibition Hall".

  In the late 1990s, Tang Guohua was transferred from the Air Force to the position of deputy director of the labor bureau in a district. After learning about machine repair during his time in the army, Tang Guohua, who had car dreams, did not follow the steps to become his director. Instead, he plunged into the automobile distribution industry, began selling Dongfeng auto parts, and gradually developed the business into automobile dealership. Today, the Hunan Lantian Automobile Group he founded is firmly in the top three in Hunan’s automobile dealership industry. The cars displayed in the Hexi Automobile Culture Center are some of the vehicles collected by the Lantian Group during its 20-year development.

  Since the start of his career benefited from "Dongfeng", in the early days of founding the automobile sales group, Tang Guohua only did "Dongfeng Department". By chance, Tang Guohua went to Dongfeng Group to work, and a friend told him that the first Fukang sedan jointly produced by Dongfeng and Citroen was thrown in the wind and rain in a corner of the Xiangfan factory. When Tang Guohua, who liked to collect vehicles, heard about it, he immediately went to the relationship and looked for the relevant certification records of this car. Finally, it was determined that this was indeed the first Fukang produced by Dongfeng Citroen. After a conversation with the senior management of Dongfeng Company, the other party was moved by Tang Guohua’s enthusiasm and agreed to hand over the car to Tang Guohua for collection.

  According to historical records, on September 4, 1992, the first CKD-assembled "Fukang" sedan was officially rolled off the production line at the Xiangfan Dongfeng Automobile Assembly and Trial Plant. The car was the first car assembled and produced by Shenlong Automobile Co., Ltd., a joint venture between Dongfeng Automobile and Citroen Automobile, using parts imported from the Ornai General Assembly Plant in France. Its name in the origin market was Citroen ZX, and after being introduced to China, the Chinese name was designated Shenlong Fukang.

  In 2017, Tang Guohua, who was like a treasure, shipped the white Fukang car with number 00001 back to Changsha, and after some rectification, it was displayed in his car culture exhibition hall. Because the first 4S store operated by Lantian Group was the Dongfeng Citroen brand, this Fukang was of special significance to Tang Guohua, and it was almost the "treasure of the town hall".

  In fact, the reason why Tang Guohua has a soft spot for Fukang is also because the first car he bought in 1999 was also Fukang.

  "Back then, I was driving it to run business and drag accessories. It accompanied me throughout the difficult journey of starting my business in the early stage…" Looking back on the road to entrepreneurship, Tang Guohua, 57, is full of emotions. "At that time, it was a very face-saving thing to be able to drive a Fukang car." Tang Guohua said that this car accompanied the start and take-off of his entrepreneurial road. "Driving to talk about business can bring more trust to customers." Tang Guohua said with a smile. At that time, he ran business, not afraid of hardship or tiredness, and he also drove to Guangdong, Hubei and other places regardless of day and night. In addition to the province, he often drove to Guangdong, Hubei and other places, and each time the Fukang car did not disappoint him.

  He gave the Fukang car that accompanied Tang Guohua’s business to his younger brother and nephew one after another. It was not until 2018 that the "classic car" that ran nearly 400,000 kilometers was honorably retired and was collected by Tang Guohua in his automobile culture center.

  In charge of a car group with tens of billions of yuan in revenue, Tang Guohua has achieved "car freedom". After Fukang, he bought Dongfeng Citroen C5, Dongfeng Nissan Loulan, Infiniti, Mercedes-Benz S and other cars. When changing cars, the old cars were not sold, and they all became his collection. Tang Guohua wants to treat his treasure of the year as an element of car culture and share it with riders. In his opinion, this is not only to remember the original intention of hard work, but also because used cars "have temperature and stories". Of course, his favorite is the Fukang sedan that accompanied him to start from scratch 21 years ago.

  "A car should not be just a tool, but an element of life." As an entrepreneur, Tang Guohua has a deep fascination with "car culture". In the Changsha Hexi Automobile City he built, not only do dozens of 4S shops operate, but the completely free "Hexi Automobile Culture Center" attracts people who love car culture. In addition to the first domestic Shenlong Fukang, Tang Guohua’s Fukang, and Dongfeng Citroen C5, there are also various precious models of different eras such as Mercedes-Benz steam cars, Beetles, Red Flag courtesy cars, Shanghai brand cars, Willis, etc., as well as engines, car chassis and car-related cultural objects.

  Although more than 100 million yuan has been invested in the vehicle collection, Tang Guohua said that dreams have nothing to do with money. He hopes to make more young people love cars, understand history and cherish the present. Tang Guohua told reporters that the car culture exhibition hall has been declared to the Hunan Provincial and Changsha Municipal Cultural Tourism Bureau as "Hunan Vehicle Museum", and it is estimated that it will be approved soon. By then, this will be the real first automobile museum in Hunan. (Reporter, Liu Zhaohui)

What changes will C919′ s successful first flight bring to our lives?

  On May 5th, China’s first international mainstream trunk passenger plane C919 taxied after landing safely at Shanghai Pudong International Airport. At 14: 01 on the same day, China’s first international mainstream trunk passenger plane C919 made its first flight at Shanghai Pudong International Airport, and landed safely at Shanghai Pudong International Airport at 15: 19, and its first flight was successful. Xinhua News Agency reporter Ding Ting photo

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, May 5 (Reporter Meng Hanqi, Jia Yuankun and Xie Jiao) On May 5, China’s first large jet C919 with completely independent intellectual property rights rushed into the sky at Shanghai Pudong Airport, successfully completing its first flight mission, fulfilling the "airplane dream" that Chinese people had been waiting for for for half a century. The successful first flight of a large plane not only inspired the aviation industry, but also closely related to the lives of ordinary people.

  The upgrading of aviation industry sounded the "first shot"

  C919 large passenger plane is a large jet civil aircraft developed by China in accordance with international civil aviation regulations, with completely independent intellectual property rights. According to the advanced aerodynamic layout, structural materials and airborne system, the developers have planned 102 key technical problems, including the integrated design of aircraft engine, the control law design of fly-by-wire flight control system and active control technology.

  Don’t think that C919 is just a cold code name, but this name has great expectations. The full name of C919 is COMAC919, in which "C" is the initials of China and the abbreviation of the English name of COMAC, the main manufacturer of China. The first "9" means everlasting, while "19" means that the first medium-sized passenger plane in China has a maximum capacity of 190 seats.

  The reporter learned from China Commercial Aircraft Co., Ltd. that the first flight of the C919 lasted for more than one hour, the cruising altitude of the aircraft was about 3,000 meters, and the cruising speed was about 300 kilometers per hour.

  It is generally believed in the industry that the successful maiden flight of C919 has sounded the first shot for the upgrading of China’s aviation industry, which will have a far-reaching impact on large aircraft manufacturing and even high-end manufacturing. With the introduction of relevant industrial policies, it will not only help to accelerate the formation of domestic large aircraft industrial clusters, but also expect long-term overall returns on related stocks. For example, machine integrators, system-level integrated suppliers and raw materials fields will usher in a broad market space.

  Upstream and downstream industries "take off"

  The big plane was successfully launched and cheers came from all over the country.

  The production, matching and assembly of C919 large passenger aircraft involved more than 200 enterprises and 22 provinces and cities, involving nearly 200,000 people, and promoted the establishment of 16 joint ventures in airborne systems such as avionics, flight control, power supply, fuel and landing gear. Chen Shangyong, an external flight consultant of Yihang Aviation Group, said that the mass production of C919 will drive the development of upstream and downstream industries such as metal materials, metallurgical processing, CNC machine tools and power control, and its pull on related markets will exceed one trillion.

  According to the forecast, China’s air transport market alone will need nearly 6,000 trunk passenger planes in the next 20 years, with a value of nearly 900 billion yuan.

  The vigorous development of industry and increasing demand will directly affect employment. According to statistics, if the civil aviation large aircraft project forms an industry, there is a demand for 80 workers in the downstream parts field behind an aircraft factory worker; The civil aircraft project will provide 12 times the employment opportunities for related industries. For every $100 million invested in the aviation industry, aviation and related industries will produce $8 billion in 10 years.

  As a "professional nose user", AVIC Chengfei Civil Aircraft Company has driven the development of more than 20 upstream enterprises around, some of which are providing accessories for star models such as Boeing and Airbus. Tang Jianzhong, deputy chief engineer of AVIC Chengfei Civil Aircraft Company, said that with the commercialization of domestic aircraft, more jobs will be created and the employment of a large number of high-tech talents will be solved.

  It is matched with the improvement of the training mechanism of aviation high-skilled talents. It is understood that with the launch of the C919 project, the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics of Shanghai Jiaotong University set up a special class for civil aircraft design to train professionals. With the development of C919 project, GCAT, jointly organized by Comac of China, General Electric Company and Avionics International, has also been promoted.

  When can the people "fly first"?

  "C919 integrates the highest scientific and technological applications in the field of civil aviation manufacturing at home and abroad, with a high design starting point. I believe it will definitely become a star model. " Liu Shaoyong, chairman of China Eastern Airlines Group and a national super pilot, said.

  "For the people, the success of the flight test of the C919 means that there will be new options in addition to Airbus and Boeing in the future, and it is a domestic model option." Chen Shangyong said. Netizens also praised it, saying that "the big plane has fulfilled the China aviation dream of ordinary people" and "domestic aircraft will be supported after commercial operation in the future".

  When we are happy, many people secretly expect: When can we get on the C919 passenger plane?

  At present, the market order for C919 large passenger aircraft has reached 570. In 2016, China Eastern Airlines became the first user of C919 large passenger aircraft in the world. Within one year after the first flight of C919 passenger plane, Comac China and China Eastern Airlines will start negotiations on the supply and demand of five aircraft.

  Although the first flight was successful, it is still a long way from commercial operation. It is understood that the first flight is not a commercial operation of carrying passengers, but a step required to obtain various qualifications. After the first flight of C919 is successful, it needs to complete all kinds of forensic tasks before mass production. According to industry insiders, it takes about 3 or 4 years for civil aircraft to obtain evidence for flight test, and it will not enter the commercialization stage until the evidence is obtained.

  "The agreement between China and Europe and the United States on airworthiness forensics has opened up a situation for the smooth forensics of C919 aircraft in the United States and the European Aviation Administration. We look forward to the early success of obtaining evidence for C919, and look forward to delivering it to us for commercial operation as soon as possible after completing various forensics." Liu Shaoyong said.

"Workplace Health Class" will broadcast "Stay away from digital visual fatigue" on August 15th.

Have you calculated how long you use electronic equipment every day? Dry eyes, itchy eyes, painful eyes, stinging eyes, photophobia, tears, foreign body sensation, etc. How many symptoms have you got? While electronic products bring us convenience, improper use may also cause serious harm to our eyes.

What diseases are the symptoms of eye discomfort often felt in life?

We usually have a series of eye discomfort symptoms caused by excessive use of electronic products, such as dryness, swelling pain, itchy eyes, easy fatigue, blurred vision, foreign body sensation, burning sensation, fear of wind, photophobia, sensitivity to external stimuli, etc., which may be the manifestations of dry eye, asthenopia and pseudomyopia.

How is dry eye syndrome?

Dry eye refers to a tear secretion disorder caused by many factors, with dry eyes as the main symptom. Dry eye sometimes the eyes are too dry and the basic tears are insufficient, but it stimulates the secretion of reflective tears, resulting in frequent tears.

Main symptoms: dry eyes, easy fatigue, itchy eyes, foreign body sensation, burning pain, sticky secretions, fear of wind, photophobia and sensitivity to external stimuli.

How is visual fatigue?

Visual fatigue is not an independent disease, but a group of fatigue syndrome caused by various reasons. Visual fatigue is mainly caused by the decrease of blinking times when people concentrate on watching the screens of electronic products such as TV, computer or mobile phone, resulting in a corresponding decrease in tears secretion, and at the same time, the flashing screen strongly stimulates the eyes, which will cause and aggravate various eye diseases.

The main symptoms: eye fatigue, dry eyes, foreign body sensation, heavy eyelids, blurred vision, photophobia and tears, eye swelling and pain, eye congestion, headache, dizziness, nausea, listlessness, inattention, memory loss, loss of appetite and other systemic symptoms. A few patients may have diplopia, stereoscopic vision dysfunction, elevated intraocular pressure, corneal damage, etc., and teenagers may also have myopia or deepen myopia.

How is pseudomyopia?

Pseudomyopia is caused by the continuous contraction and spasm of ciliary muscle and the increase of lens thickness, which leads to blurred vision. If pseudomyopia is not relieved in time, it will lead to the enlargement of axial length and become true myopia.

Can you avoid dry eye symptoms by closing your eyes?

Close your eyes and rest can protect your eyes, but it can’t prevent dry eye. The most effective way to prevent dry eye is to blink effectively. Blink, that is, what we usually call blink.

Can staring at green alleviate visual fatigue?

Green is the most favorable color for the eyes, but just looking at green can’t relieve visual fatigue. The most effective way to relieve visual fatigue is to let your eyes look far away and have a proper rest.

Can anti-blue glasses and anti-blue mobile phone film effectively protect eyes?

It is not recommended to protect your eyes through anti-blue glasses and anti-blue mobile phone film. What is really harmful to the eyes is: short-wave blue light with a wavelength of 400~450.

How to prevent visual fatigue?

● Pay attention to the distance of using electronic products.

● Pay attention to the time of using electronic products and follow the "20-20-20" rule.

● Pay attention to adjusting the brightness of electronic products.

● Strengthen outdoor activities and get full exposure to the sun.

● Maintain hand hygiene and prevent eye infection.

● Strengthen nutrition.

On August 15th, Wei Wenbin, vice president of Beijing Tongren Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, and Li Ying, chief ophthalmologist of Peking Union Medical College Hospital were invited to keep you away from "digital fatigue". Please watch.
