As a former executive of Alstom France, Pieruzzi is called the protagonist of "French version of Meng Wanzhou incident".

In 2013, Pieruzzi was arrested by the U.S. Department of Justice at JFK International Airport, charged with a business corruption case in Indonesia in 2003. In September 2018, after Pieruzzi was freed from prison, he wrote the book "American Trap" based on his personal experience. So far, the whole story of General Electric’s acquisition of Alstom, which was regarded as the shame of France, was declassified.

In the past decade, American legal and regulatory authorities have taken extraterritorial legal actions against many large foreign companies. Large companies that have been under the threat of "long-arm jurisdiction" in the United States for a long time have almost reached the point where everyone fears for himself.

Alstom was founded in France in 1928, and it is a leading enterprise in power generation and rail transit infrastructure in the world.

It is understood that a quarter of the global power stations come from Alstom’s equipment. In 2013, there were 58 nuclear reactor turbogenerators in France, which were manufactured and maintained by Alstom. In France, 75% of the production equipment in the store came from Alstom, even including the propulsion turbine of Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier. Known as "the crown of French power equipment industry".

Therefore, the global power business targeted by GE is also related to France’s economic and strategic security.

In 2003 and 2008, Alstom was caught in the suspicion of commercial corruption. In 2003, Alstom was faced with debt and was on the verge of bankruptcy. With the help of then French Minister of Economy and Finance Sarkozy, it was only through the government’s repurchase of 20% assets that it was able to continue its life. Later, it was only by the order of Tallahan Power Plant in Indonesia that it was brought back to life.

Subsequently, in an audit report of KPMG Fides Peat in Switzerland in 2004, it was found that Alstom used the records of transfer from several offshore shadow companies, with a total amount of 20 million euros. Alstom was also found to have opened accounts in Liechtenstein, Switzerland, the United States, Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand and Bahrain, and transferred more than $12 million to personal accounts in Venezuela, Singapore, Thailand and China through these accounts.

In 2008, a former Alstom employee said that some European companies had long acquiesced in paying kickbacks to foreign officials or customers, especially in the 1990s. In the early days, some countries even stipulated that companies could get a maximum tax reduction of 7.5% if they reported to the tax authorities.

American multinational companies have strongly protested against this, believing that it will put American enterprises at an extremely unfavorable competitive disadvantage, which is particularly obvious when entering the market of developing countries.

Alstom, which was not "clean" originally, received an offer from General Electric at this time.

After the global financial tsunami in 2008, GE Capital, which contributed 40% of GE’s annual income, began to return to manufacturing. Holding more than 50 billion yuan without cash, even if the opponent is in France with strong "economic patriotism", GE is determined to win. Where does it come from?

A French company engaged in business activities in Indonesia, but its executives were arrested while on a business trip in the United States, which is such an incredible thing in the eyes of ordinary people.

The "reasonable explanation" presented by the police to Pieruzzi was actually hidden in the US Department of Justice, because in this case, the Ministry of Justice used two key laws — — Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and Long-arm Jurisdiction.

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act was originally a law aimed at preventing American enterprises from engaging in bribery overseas. However, in the second amendment in 1998, it was stipulated that it also had jurisdiction over corrupt acts of foreign enterprises overseas.

The long-arm jurisdiction is easy to understand, and the explanation given by European tradesmen is: "If the arm is long, everything should be taken care of".

When the defendant has a "minimum contact" with a certain state in the United States, for example, the defendant’s enterprise has a branch in the United States, or only communicates through the American mail system and transfers money through American banks, the United States will think that it has jurisdiction.

In other words, when implementing the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.S. Department of Justice has the right to sue any overseas company under the preset long arm jurisdiction.

Facts have proved that the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the long-arm jurisdiction have actually become important legal tools for the United States to achieve the national strategic goal of "re-industrialization" by non-economic means and help American enterprises make profits, and have become an important part of General Electric’s acquisition of Alstom, France.

With the active cooperation of the Ministry of Justice, General Electric successfully won Alstom, the pearl of French industry.

In the process of acquisition, the U.S. Department of Justice took the initiative to cooperate with GE three times.

1. Arrest Pieruzzi. In Pieruzzi’s self-report, the U.S. prosecutor had expressed the hope that Pieruzzi would become his informant in Alstom. After being rejected, the Ministry of Justice gave him two choices.

One option is to plead not guilty and stand trial. Therefore, the Ministry of Justice will strive for the court to sentence him to 15 to 19 years in prison. He was told that the preparation for the trial would last three years and cost millions of dollars.

Another option is to plead guilty and cooperate with the American authorities, and only need to be locked up for a few more months before you can go out. The email provided by the US Department of Justice shows that Pieruzzi is an insider even if he does not encourage bribery — — Confessing to this part of the crime will only result in him being sentenced to a maximum of six months in prison, and he has served more than half of his sentence.

When Pieruzzi finally succumbed to the pressure and signed the plea agreement, the American judicial authorities still imprisoned him for more than five years, and he was not freed until 2008.

2. coerce the CEO to submit. Pierucci’s claim that he has become an "economic hostage" carries considerable weight, and the arrest shocked Alstom’s top management. About 30 executives were warned not to go to the United States to avoid repeating the mistakes of Pieruzzi.

By the spring of 2014, in order to put pressure on Alstom to cooperate with the US Department of Justice, the US authorities arrested at least three former colleagues of Pieruzzi. By inserting an informant, I got a 49-hour secret conversation recording inside Alstom.

At this point, CEO Bai Kelong can only take the lead, and secretly contact with GE executives to discuss the acquisition. After the acquisition was completed in 2015, an official of the US Department of Justice said that Alstom was not willing to sit down and negotiate until we started arresting their executives.

3. Push back Siemens. After learning about the secret conversation between Bacron and GE, Siemens suddenly stepped in and asked for the establishment of a joint venture with Alstom, which was followed by the invitation of Monteberg, then Minister of Industry of the French government. Obviously, Germany, as France’s EU partner, Siemens’ acquisition of Alstom is more in line with France’s national interests than that of American enterprises.

However, the Ministry of Justice warned Siemens that if it formed a joint venture with, the company would face a fine of $1 billion (in 2006, Siemens was accused by the United States of bribery in Argentina and Venezuela, and two years later, Siemens pleaded guilty and paid a fine of $800 million, and CEO von Pierre resigned).

In the end, the European Commission approved the acquisition on September 8, 2015 under the lobbying of the interests of all parties. Alstom was "dismembered": its core energy and electricity business was forced to be sold to American companies, and the company’s business was only rail transit. The Economist, a well-known economic journal, commented in the article that the investigation by the US Department of Justice distorted Alstom’s process of selling assets and created an advantage for potential American buyers.

In 2015, Mark Kong Lung took over as Minister of Economy. He tried to start an inquiry about the acquisition, but he finally gave up. "I believe that there is a causal relationship between the investigation by the US Department of Justice and the sale of Alstom assets, but … … I have no evidence. "

"Pieruzzi is the epitome of French tragedy," French historian Fran? ois Godement admitted frankly in 2016. "At least in industry, France and even Europe have long been conquered by the United States, and we are powerless in the global competition."

When we mention General Electric, we always think of a great name — — Edison. The story of Electric Light Wire is accompanied by several generations’ childhood memories. Today, GE once again appeared in the Wall Street Journal. The title of the article has become "The Dilemma of General Electric: How a company that defined the" American Age "went into decline". In 2018, the overall share price fell by more than 50%, which was nearly 90% lower than the high point in 2000.

High-tech industry, as one of the four pillars of the United States, has now ushered in a challenger from China — — Huawei.

Will Huawei be the next Alstom? Recent performance has shown that Huawei is strong enough to leverage and tear a hole in the rules built by American enterprises and government alliances.

How can we subvert the existing organizational system rules? Mihali, the author of "Flow", introduced in "Creativity: Flow and Innovation Psychology" that the disintegration process has a unique dynamics in the face of rules determined by the contrast of forces:

The first is unimodal preference, and the challenger faces a tough counterattack from conservatives, followed by sub-conservatives.

In the process of disintegration, confrontation will gradually evolve into a "double-peak preference". Conservatives still don’t like you, but they don’t like the sub-conservatives who are not so strongly opposed, and they are caught in internal struggles. The small differences are worse than the sky: the enemy is hateful, the "traitor" is even more hateful, and those who are different from me are traitors. At this point, congratulations, you will win.

Under the blockade, Huawei has also received the support of some "sub-opposition parties". Ren Zhengfei’s answer is: if you get more help, you will get less help.

"We can also make chips like American chips, but that doesn’t mean we won’t buy them."

"We will not narrowly exclude American chips easily and grow together, but if there is a supply difficulty, we have a backup. We are at ‘ Peacetime ’ Half of them are from American chips and half are from Huawei. We cannot be isolated from the world. "

"Huawei’s 5G will not be affected. In terms of 5G technology, others will definitely not catch up with Huawei in two or three years."

In addition, Ren Zhengfei also stressed in his previous public interviews with Japan and Britain that no-spy agreements can be signed. In the face of absolute strength, we see Huawei’s confidence.

After being released on bail, Meng Wanzhou made a circle of friends with Huawei’s propaganda pictures of ballet feet as a picture.

Behind greatness is suffering, and behind continuous greatness is continuous suffering. Restricting Huawei’s development is only a means for the United States to try to maintain its superpower hegemony once again. Whether it is Alstom, its ally, or Huawei in fair trade, what it can’t restrain is the long arms that the United States constantly wants to extend.

At present, it is a pity that the 75-year-old man said when talking about his family: "What I am most sorry for in my life is my children. I was too busy when I started my business, and I had little time to communicate with them. When I was young, my company was in a desperate struggle for survival, and I often had little contact with children for several months. I owed them."

From elegance and folk custom, we can see the life art of Chinese people.

The exhibition "Elegance and Artistic Interest-Life, Wisdom and Art of Chinese" is being exhibited in the Art Museum of Beijing Academy of Painting. More than 110 classic paintings and calligraphy works are selected from the fine works collected by the Academy. From the perspectives of elegance and folklore, the painting art is used to tell the quiet and transcendent life that the literati yearn for and the flavor and interest in the lives of the folk people. The Spring Festival in Jihai is approaching, and there is also a popular "Year Culture" in the exhibition hall, such as a picture of "Year of the Year" painted by Qi Baishi, a great master, on the occasion of the Spring Festival, to celebrate the farewell of the old year and the welcome of the new year.

Qi Baishi

Year of the DPRK In 1950, it was collected by Beijing Painting Academy.

Chinese aesthetic presentation of "taste both refined and popular"

Qi Baishi, Wu Jingting, Hu Peiheng, Xu Yansun and Wu Guangyu cooperated."Chang Chun Xiu Mao" (Partial) Collected by Beijing Painting Academy

In Chinese’s aesthetic standards, there is a word called "taste both refined and popular". "Elegance" is the ultimate pursuit of ancient China literati. It is not only reflected in the daily speech and behavior of ancient literati, but also runs through their daily life. It can be said that "elegance" is the core of the aesthetic taste of elite cultural classes. High mountains and flowing water, playing the piano, is a kind of elegance; It is a kind of elegance to gather all the sages, fight for wine and recite poems; It is also a kind of elegance to look at the clouds and play with ink. For thousands of years, China literati have been enriching the connotation of elegance.

"Vulgarity" is the flavor and interest of China folk culture. Hard-working and simple Chinese summed up a lot of wisdom and philosophy about life in his work and life. China’s folk culture is more lively and interesting than the elegant things that literati care about. Auspicious patterns with the expectation of a better life, the strong New Year flavor embellished with lanterns and firecrackers, and the Chinese zodiac animals composed of real animals or unreal animals … all these are full of China flavor.

The exhibition not only introduces the elegant things that China literati are keen on, such as reading, playing the piano, watching paintings and collecting elegance; Four gentlemen in the flowers who express their aspirations through things-plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum; Natural philosophy with emotion and landscape. At the same time, it also introduces the traditional customs of ordinary people, such as attaching importance to loyalty, filial piety, propriety and righteousness, believing in religious beliefs, praying for good luck and longevity, and expecting a full house for future generations, as well as opera songs and dances with China cultural characteristics and the chronology of the zodiac. You can come here, watch "Chang Chun Xiu", and appreciate the grand occasion of Beijing painting circles in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. Or taste the Mei Lanzhuju of Wu Changshuo, Chen Shiceng and Qi Baishi, and watch the literati play with ink and express their aspirations through things. You can also read and explain the characters and think about China’s unique religious culture; Or enjoy "Shoutao" and "Hundred philosophers", and consider that the painter’s painting implies auspiciousness and ingenuity.

Auspicious and festive, sharing a happy year together

Pray for the Spring Festival

Every time I bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, Chinese always uses the customs handed down from the older generation to ward off disasters and evil spirits and welcome the new. Every household writes blessings, cuts out window grilles, puts up New Year pictures, hangs lanterns, firecrackers and red lanterns, and the streets and alleys are filled with joy and joy of the Spring Festival. However, with the increasing proportion of science and information technology in our lives, people have begun to forget some customs in traditional culture. To this end, the exhibition leads the audience to recall the taste of the "Year" especially when the Spring Festival comes. Tell the origin of the word "Fu", the style of paper-cutting, the rubbing of New Year pictures and the message of stationery. The audience can come here to cut a window flower and stick it on the window to watch the spring flowers bloom; Write a blessing and stick it in front of the door, asking Fulu to get home safely; Send a letter, a short message, and send a New Year greeting; Print a New Year picture, which is more than enough every year, and pray for a bumper harvest. During the exhibition, the Beijing Academy of Painting held a "blessing" activity for the appreciation of the support of the audience from all walks of life over the years. From New Year’s Eve to the fifth day of junior high school, visitors to the Art Museum of Beijing Academy of Painting have the opportunity to get a famous "Fu" to celebrate the New Year.

The exhibition will last until February 28, 2019.

Appreciation of exhibition works

Chou Ying (model)The Picture of Peach and Plum Garden in Spring Banquet was collected by Beijing Painting Academy in Ming Dynasty.

Ancient literati in China liked to invite friends to gather in their own gardens, enjoy painting and calligraphy, drink wine and enjoy the scenery, and burn incense and tea together. The old man in red in the work is the master of the courtyard. He holds a candlelight dinner with his family and friends. The white porcelain wine glasses and red lacquer holders placed on the table are typical drinking utensils for literati in the Ming Dynasty, while the scroll paintings put away show that the owner has just enjoyed painting and calligraphy with the guests. After the tea banquet, there are some ancient books, scrolls, stone appreciation, bronze ribbons and wine sets on the mahogany table, all of which show the elegance of the party.

Qi Baishi Reading Map Collected by Beijing Painting Academy

After the May 4th Movement in 1919, influenced by western culture, horizontally typeset books appeared in China. Before that, ancient books were arranged vertically from the right, so Chinese developed a top-down reading habit, pitching heaven and earth between raising his head and lowering his head.

Li ShanThree Friends in the Collection of Beijing Painting Academy in Qing Dynasty

Pine trees, full of vitality and evergreen, are born in adversity and grow together with bamboo and plum blossoms in the cold winter. Therefore, in the eyes of the ancient people in China, these three plants are symbols of high morals and integrity, and they are called "three friends who are old and cold". Scholars like to keep company with three friends who are old and cold, and put them into paintings, which reflects their pursuit of loneliness, luxury and out of touch.

Yu Feian"Up to the Blue Sky" was collected by Beijing Painting Academy in 1958.

Different from western still life, Chinese’s paintings like to show the vitality of nature. Birds, or fly high, or chirp; Butterflies, or dancing, or nostalgia for flowers. Yu Feian, a painter, is good at drawing flowers and birds. In order to observe birds’ demeanor and movements, he also keeps pigeons at home. The two pigeons in the painting, one with its head held high and the other looking back, are lifelike, like a couple. This is the painter’s observation of life, which can be regarded as a sketch, and the auspicious cloud pattern in the painting is a classic pattern in China’s traditional painting.

Qi Baishi"Double Mantis" Collected by Beijing Painting Academy

In ancient Chinese, the seasons were known by observing nature, thus guiding farming. After the cold winter, the insects burst out of the ground, indicating the coming of farming season. Therefore, Chinese is very fond of insects. If landscape is Chinese’s thinking about the macro world, then grass bugs are their exploration of the micro world. Qi Baishi, a painter, loves life, and even a tiny creature has become something he is willing to show. Moreover, the grass insects he described are so real that even entomologists are full of praise, and the handling of details is even more exquisite.

Qi BaishiThe picture of making a fortune was collected by Beijing Painting Academy in 1927.

The object in the painting is an abacus, an ancient computing tool in China, which started in the Song Dynasty and is still in use today. Before the calculator appeared, Chinese always used abacus for calculation and statistics. Whether it is an inn, restaurant, teahouse or drugstore, every family has an abacus to calculate the operating income of the day, month and year. As a result, the abacus gradually has another meaning-making a fortune. Qi Baishi, a painter, did not draw coins, but used an abacus to make a fortune. This is Chinese’s wisdom and implication.

Qi BaishiAlbum of the 12 Zodiac Animals was collected by Beijing Painting Academy in 1940.

Zodiac is a unique commemorative method in China. Guan Weishan commissioned Qi Baishi to create the Twelve Zodiacs, and asked for two or three pictures every year. It took four years to collect one set. Then they took over the ink margin and became friends. This set of Zodiac is not created in the order of the zodiac, among which So Thousand Miles was first created in 1940, while The Picture of the Peach Monkey was painted in 1944. The old man Baishi vividly shows the characteristics of various animals in his paintings, and also conveys his own life feelings and emotions.

Guan LiangDramatic Characters was collected by Beijing Painting Academy in 1953.

Guan Liang’s four works of dramatic figures are all the national quintessence of China’s art-Peking Opera. Peking Opera was born in the Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty, and evolved from Huizhou Opera. It entered the court at the beginning of its formation, so the aesthetic requirements for the stage image are higher. There is a complete program for repertoire creation, gongs and drums singing, costumes and masks. Different from western drama, the performing arts of Beijing opera pay attention to the combination of reality and reality. Without landscaping, a gesture can show pushing the door and entering; Without props, one action can show galloping. And this kind of expressive stage essentials is related to Chinese philosophy.

China’s foreign trade started smoothly (Rui Finance)

According to the data recently released by the General Administration of Customs, the import and export volume of China in February this year exceeded US$ 411.2 billion, up 1.3% year-on-year. At the press conference held by the State Council Information Office a few days ago, the relevant person in charge of the General Administration of Customs introduced that, according to the trend, the import and export of China’s foreign trade have obviously stabilized since February, and the last week of February has increased by more than 15% compared with the previous week. With the overall improvement of China’s economic situation, the momentum of the smooth start of foreign trade in the first two months is expected to be maintained.

The export situation is better than expected.

The data shows that in February, China’s import volume reached US$ 197.2 billion, up 4.2% year-on-year, ending the trend of declining growth rate for four consecutive months; In February, the export volume decreased by 1.3% year-on-year, but it was significantly narrower than that in the previous three months. "Overall, the start is stable and the trend is improving." Yu Jianhua, director of the General Administration of Customs, introduced the foreign trade development situation in the first two months of this year, saying, "In terms of scale, the total export value in the first two months reached a record high, with an increase of 0.9%, which was better than expected. The total value of imports and exports exceeds 6 trillion yuan, which is the second time in history. "

In terms of composition, China took the lead in resuming work and production during the epidemic period, and the export of epidemic prevention materials and "house economy" products increased substantially, raising the foreign trade base. "We have calculated that if the’ one-off factor’ is excluded, the import and export growth in the first two months of this year will exceed 10%." Yu Jianhua said.

To help foreign trade recover, the Customs has introduced a series of measures. According to Yu Jianhua, in terms of ensuring smooth flow, as of December last year, the overall customs clearance time for imports and exports nationwide was reduced by 67% and 92% respectively compared with 2017; In terms of cost reduction, the customs supports enterprises to enjoy various preferential tax policies, and last year alone, it reduced taxes and refunded taxes for foreign trade enterprises by 285 billion yuan; In terms of excellent service, we carried out the policy of "the Commissioner of Customs delivers the goods to the door", innovated the supervision mode of "putting the goods before inspection" and "green channel" for agricultural and food products, transferred 87 commodity codes out of the legal inspection catalogue, and continuously optimized the port business environment.

Yu Jianhua said that in view of the pain points and difficulties of enterprises, the customs will also study new policy measures in terms of unblocking import and export logistics, optimizing port business environment, reducing enterprise costs, and supporting the development of new formats, such as promoting the construction of smart customs and helping enterprises to make full use of free trade agreements such as RCEP.

"tailor-made" supervision of cross-border e-commerce

As one of the new formats of international trade development, cross-border e-commerce shows great vitality. Nowadays, more and more goods made in China enter the international consumer goods market through cross-border e-commerce.

Different from traditional trade, cross-border e-commerce presents the characteristics of fragmentation, quantification and informationization. The data shows that the number of import lists of cross-border e-commerce is 5-6 times of the number of goods declarations in the same period, and the average value of each order is less than three ten thousandths of the goods declarations. "In the process of supervision, we seized contraband such as controlled psychotropic drugs, articles infringing intellectual property rights, and’ exotic pets’. It should be said that these new situations have challenged the customs supervision work. " Sun Yuning, deputy director of the General Administration of Customs, said.

How to effectively supervise cross-border e-commerce? Sun Yuning said that the General Administration of Customs has introduced a customs clearance management system different from traditional trade, and created a customs supervision model suitable for the characteristics of cross-border e-commerce through classified management and "tailoring".

On the basis of the original "business-to-person (B2C)", the General Administration of Customs put forward the supervision policy of "business-to-business (B2B)" and "business-to-person (B2B2C)". In this process, we strengthened the empowerment of science and technology, developed and applied a unified version of cross-border e-commerce supervision information system, and realized the integrated management of transaction, payment, logistics and other related data. "At the same time, we comprehensively promote the paperless filing of cross-border e-commerce export overseas warehouses, and realize’ one place for filing, universal’. By the end of February, the number of cross-border e-commerce overseas warehouse enterprises registered with the customs had reached 1,713. " Sun Yuning said.

Promote stability, improve quality and have confidence

At present, global inflation is high and the growth of major economies is weak, which has a continuous impact on global trade. The WTO recently predicted that the global trade in goods was weak in the first quarter of this year, and it is expected to increase by only 1% for the whole year. The recent fluctuations in financial markets in some western countries have impacted the global trade environment, which is also an external challenge for China’s foreign trade to promote stability and improve quality.

"The challenges facing China’s foreign trade are short-term, cyclical and global; The opportunities ushered in by foreign trade development are long-term, structural and regional. " Cheng Shi, chief economist of ICBC International, believes that the global total demand is expected to increase with the impetus of economic growth and scientific and technological progress, and the globalization of service trade may become a breakthrough point for China’s foreign trade development.

Yu Jianhua introduced that in the first two months, more enterprises entered the foreign trade field, and the customs newly registered 46,000 foreign trade business entities, indicating that market confidence is accumulating and recovering. "In terms of orders, the proportion of new export orders increased continuously. In terms of new kinetic energy, the total export of electric vehicles, lithium batteries and solar cells increased by 60%. In terms of trade diversification, China’s import and export to countries along the Belt and Road increased by more than 10%, and its total import and export to other RCEP members increased by more than 3%. " Yu Jianhua said.

"On the whole, the foreign trade situation is still severe and complicated, but it also contains many opportunities." Yu Jianhua said, comparatively speaking, China’s competitive advantage is still obvious. With the overall improvement of China’s economic situation, the momentum of the smooth start of foreign trade in the first two months is expected to be maintained. This year, China is confident to achieve the goal of promoting stability and improving quality in foreign trade.

Sudden! The United States, a substantial increase in tariffs!

The United States has again "black hand"

According to the reference news quoted by the US media, on September 13th, the US government decided to substantially increase the import tariffs on China products, including 100% tariffs on electric vehicles, 50% tariffs on solar cells and 50% tariffs on China semiconductors.

The latest action of the United States has aroused complaints from many industries in the United States, saying that the price increase will disrupt the supply chain, including the supply chain of semiconductor-intensive products. One study after another shows that Americans bear almost all the costs of imposing tariffs on China products. Once importers pay the tariffs, they usually pass some or all of the costs on to consumers. Jason oxman, president of the Information Technology Industry Association of the United States, said, "Since its implementation, tariffs have caused cumulative losses to American enterprises and consumers of $221 billion. With today’s announcement, the Office of the US Trade Representative once again relies on blunt and ineffective tariff tools, and its effectiveness has no support. "

Recently, He Yongqian, spokesman of China’s Ministry of Commerce, said that the US 301 tariff on China was unpopular and urged the US to immediately cancel all tariffs on China.

The United States substantially raised tariffs on China products.

According to the reference news quoted on the website of VOA Radio on September 13th, the US government decided on the 13th to substantially raise the import tariffs on China products, including the tariff on electric vehicles by 100%, in order to strengthen the protection of strategic industries in the United States.

A press release from the Office of the United States Trade Representative says that some tariffs will take effect on September 27th. In addition to imposing 100% tariffs on electric vehicles in China, the United States will also impose 50% tariffs on solar cells in China and 25% tariffs on steel, aluminum, electric vehicle batteries and key minerals in China.

At the same time, the United States will increase the import tariff of China semiconductor by 50%, and this new tax rate will take effect in January 2025. In the category of semiconductor, two categories of polysilicon and silicon wafer used in solar panels have been added.

He Yong, spokesman of China’s Ministry of Commerce, said on September 5th that the office of the US Trade Representative had solicited public comments on the results of the tariff review, and most of them opposed to increasing tariffs or applying for expanding the scope of tariff exemption, which showed that the US tariff 301 on China was unpopular and urged the US to immediately cancel all tariff increases on China.

He Yongqian said, "China has repeatedly made solemn representations to the US on the issue of tariff 301. The WTO has already ruled that tariff 301 violates WTO rules, and it is a mistake for the US to increase tariffs on China. We urge the US to correct its wrong practices, actively respond to voices from all walks of life and immediately cancel all tariffs on China. "

Earlier in May, a spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce made a statement on the results of the four-year review of the tariff 301 imposed on China by the United States. On May 14th, the United States released the results of the four-year review of the tariff 301 imposed on China, announcing that on the basis of the original tariff 301 imposed on China, it would further increase tariffs on products imported from China, such as electric vehicles, lithium batteries, photovoltaic cells, key minerals, semiconductors, steel and aluminum, port cranes and personal protective equipment. China resolutely opposes and makes solemn representations.

Due to domestic political considerations, the United States abused the 301 tariff review procedure, further increased the 301 tariff imposed on some Chinese products, and politicized and instrumentalized economic and trade issues, which is a typical political manipulation. China expresses strong dissatisfaction with this. The WTO has already ruled that tariff 301 violates WTO rules. Instead of correcting it, the United States has gone its own way and made mistakes again and again.

The Ministry of Commerce said that the United States should immediately correct its wrong practices and cancel the tariff increase measures against China. China will take resolute measures to defend its own rights and interests.

The EU has also made small moves.

On September 12th, a spokesman for the European Commission said that the price commitment solutions submitted by the China Chamber of Commerce for Electromechanical Industry and all electric vehicle manufacturers in the EU’s anti-subsidy case failed to meet the requirements, and the European side intended to reject the relevant price commitment applications.

In this regard, on the evening of September 13th, the spokesman of the Ministry of Commerce answered a reporter’s question about the European Commission’s plan to reject the price commitment solution of the EU anti-subsidy case for electric vehicles submitted by the China industry, saying that China has taken note of the relevant statement of the European side. Ignoring the sincerity and efforts of the China industry, the European Commission proposed to reject the flexible solutions proposed by the China industry without in-depth communication. China is deeply disappointed.

On August 20th and September 9th, the European Commission twice released the final disclosure of the EU anti-subsidy case on electric vehicles, and still continued the wrong practice and awarded a high tax rate. China can’t agree and accept this, but it always upholds the greatest sincerity and strives to properly resolve the friction through dialogue and consultation.

On August 24th, the China industry put forward a price commitment solution within the time limit of the investigation procedure of this case, which fully considered the demands of the European side and showed maximum flexibility. China industry indicated that its price commitment proposal is completely compliant and enforceable, and all technical problems can be solved through consultation. It is understood that several EU member states have also shown great interest in price commitment solutions.

The European Commission’s rejection of the relevant plan without detailed evaluation has not only undermined the confidence of China’s industry in continuing cooperation, but also failed to meet the expectations of EU member States, and even failed to meet its public statement that it hopes to solve the case through dialogue.

On June 22nd, since China and the EU agreed to start the consultation on the countervailing case of electric vehicles in the EU, the working teams of the two sides have conducted more than ten rounds of intensive consultations. China has submitted tens of thousands of pages of facts and evidence to the European side, and also put forward flexible solutions, making great efforts.

However, on the one hand, the European side claimed to be willing to solve the problem through dialogue, on the other hand, it quickly and rashly rejected the Chinese proposal, and never gave any specific case, which did not show the sincerity of moving in the opposite direction at all. If the consultation fails to reach a consensus, the responsibility lies entirely with the European side.

The key to the current consultations lies in whether the European side really has the political will to solve the problem. China urges the European side to earnestly implement the important consensus reached at the tripartite meeting of leaders of China, France and Europe on properly handling economic and trade frictions through dialogue and consultation, show sincerity and actions, and seriously consider the legitimate concerns of the French industry.

China has both the greatest sincerity to properly resolve differences through dialogue and consultation and the greatest determination to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of China enterprises. China will pay close attention to the follow-up progress of the European side and will take all necessary measures to firmly defend the legitimate rights and interests of China enterprises.

Gao Mantang, screenwriter of Old Pub: Give young people something nutritious.

  The 46-episode drama "Old Tavern", starring Chen Baoguo and Amanda, tells the story of Chen Huaihai, the shopkeeper of the Shandong Old Tavern on Dalian Haoren Street, and what happened in the old Tavern he opened. Since its launch, the drama has won the love of many audiences with its rich chronological texture, solid and excellent plays, rich and full characterization and witty lines. 

  If "Braving the Kanto" in those days was a comprehensive review of the real population migration in the history of China, today’s "Old Pub" is a multi-dimensional extension and upgrading expression of Gao Mantang’s great feelings of the "post-Braving the Kanto era" with a brand-new story context after ten years of precipitation.   

  "Something nutritious for young people"

  Today, nearly half of Dalian’s population comes from Shandong. Gao Mantang’s ancestors came to Dalian from his grandfather’s generation, and his father opened a pub on Xinglong Street in Dalian, from which the story of Old Pub originated. Gao Mantang’s deepest memory is the wonderful time after his father drank alcohol when he was a child: "My father always plays his broken erhu after drinking. Singing" Empty City Strategy "is beautiful, and singing" Xu Ce Running the City "is almost enough. If there is another Shandong Lu Opera, it is almost time to sleep." Gao Mantang’s creative desire was inspired by the legendary life stories and chivalrous feelings of his father’s wandering drinkers: "Write the stories of his father’s time with ease, and the more you write, the more energetic you are."

  "One Lushunkou, half a modern history", with reverence for history, at the centenary of his father’s birthday, Gao Mantang finally set out to write this story that has been in his mind for thousands of times. The Old Pub was written from the national crisis in China in 1928 to 1949. Gao Mantang thought that the history of suffering in it should not be forgotten: "We should not only cherish the future, but also review the history, and remind the young people of today that when they are enjoying their lives, it is necessary for us as artists to bring them something nutritious."

  The old pub in the play has undergone great changes for half a century, and it has been renamed several times in different years. Finally, in 2013, the name of "Shandong Old Pub" was reused. Such an old name is actually a continuation of tradition, which implies the spiritual inheritance of Do not forget your initiative mind. The Old Pub is a touching letter written by Gao Mantang to his father, a memorial to the city of Dalian, and a long and meaningful romantic poem dedicated to the audience.

  "Everyone is in my blood."

  In the play, Chen Huaihai is undoubtedly the most eye-catching: being a father at home and caring for his wife and children; Being a shopkeeper in a pub, caring for brothers; In Haoren Street, it is the backbone, helping the poor; He is the core of The Old Tavern and the backbone of the Chinese nation. As a descendant of the "Go to the East" people, Gao Mantang bluntly said: "I can’t educate the audience, I can only use my artistic image to infect the audience, enrich the modern people with these characteristics of Chen Huaihai, and let the traditional spirit return to our new era."

  Chen Baoguo, who won the Flying Award for "The Old Farmer" in 2015, expressed deep gratitude to Gao Mantang at the award ceremony: "Mr. Mantang, your play is difficult to perform but long-term, and your play is an actor." For Chen Baoguo, Gao Mantang is a predecessor, a Bole, and a noble person in his artistic career; Similarly, Gao Mantang regarded him as a close friend and a soul mate in his creation. After ten years’ cooperation, they left many excellent works, and this time, The Old Tavern is a tailor-made work by Gao Mantang for Chen Baoguo. In the early stage of script creation, he had confided in Chen Baoguo many times and told him many archetypal characters and real history behind the script, which made this story take root in Chen Baoguo’s heart.

  On the basis of Chen Huaihai as the core, The Old Tavern closely links personal destiny with feelings of home and country through group narration, and staged a legendary drama of "Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world". In Gao Mantang’s view, "Everyone in this room is in my blood. Chen Huaihai is equivalent to a solid main line and hub. The drinkers who come and go are branches that crisscross and merge with each other. These characters can open and close freely. "

  "Creation should go deep into life"

  Gao Mantang is a "rough man" born and raised in Northeast China. He has a hard-working nature in his bones. He visited six provinces and interviewed more than 200 talents to complete an old farmer. He is willing to stay in the steel plant for three years for the material of steel workers in The Age of Steel and The Great Craftsman. "Going to the East" lasted for ten years, spanning the three provinces of Heilongjiang, Kyrgyzstan and Liaoning, and reaching Jiaodong and Southwest Shandong, with a journey of tens of thousands of kilometers. In a bitter and cold place, you can only eat tofu with soy sauce to satisfy your hunger. In this regard, Gao Mantang has his own stubborn insistence: "Creation should go deep into life, take off on a solid land, and grab a handful of soil like an eagle."

  In the pursuit of short and fast experience, creation is becoming more and more fragmented and flowing. Gao Mantang lamented this: "Such a story is too empty, not solid, and it is a suspended story. Life is the source of creation. Only by feeling, touching and experiencing can we have the impulse to create. I am willing to slow down the creative speed. With originality, China’s TV series will have long-term vitality.

Institutional guarantee for high-quality development

  Perfecting the basic socialist economic system is the institutional guarantee for high-quality economic development and the construction of a modern and powerful country. Standing at a new historical starting point, we should adhere to and improve the socialist basic economic system and promote high-quality economic development in accordance with the requirements put forward by the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee, closely focus on the goal of high-quality development, firmly grasp the important key point of adhering to and improving the socialist basic economic system, and vigorously promote China’s economy to achieve high-quality development.

  The socialist basic economic system is a great creation of the party and the people and an institutional guarantee for high-quality development.

  The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee took "public ownership as the main body, multiple ownership economies developing together, distribution according to work as the main body, multiple modes of distribution coexisting, and socialist market economic system" as Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s basic economic system, which is the latest summary and development of China’s socialist basic economic system, a major institutional innovation for China’s socialist basic economic system, and also an important theoretical innovation, reflecting the combination of theoretical innovation, institutional innovation and practical innovation. These economic systems are interrelated and mutually promoted, forming a socialist basic economic system, which is a great creation of the party and the people and an institutional guarantee for high-quality development.

  The dominant position of public ownership has maintained the nature of the socialist system and the socialist direction of China’s economic development.Adhering to the common development of various forms of ownership has mobilized the enthusiasm of all parties, released new vitality for economic development, improved the enthusiasm and creativity of market players, and cultivated new kinetic energy for economic development. This system maintains the advantages of public assets in quantity, strengthens the control of public economy in important areas of national economy in quality, and realizes the combination of quality and quantity. By improving relevant laws, regulations and policies, we will promote and guide the healthy development of the non-public sector of the economy, so that the public sector of the economy and the non-public sector of the economy can work together to better serve the economic development in the new era.

  The ownership structure with public ownership as the main body and multiple ownership economies developing together determines the distribution system with distribution according to work as the main body and multiple modes of distribution coexisting.The ownership system determines the distribution system, the dominant position of public ownership determines the distribution according to work, and the coexistence of various forms of ownership determines the coexistence of various modes of distribution. Taking this distribution system as the content of the basic socialist economic system ensures the long-term stability of this distribution system. The basic economic system with distribution according to work as the main body and multiple modes of distribution coexisting plays a positive role in narrowing the income gap, avoiding polarization and improving the income of workers. This distribution system has improved the mechanism that labor, capital, land, knowledge, technology, management, data and other production factors determine their remuneration according to their contributions, and improved the redistribution adjustment mechanism with taxation, social security and transfer payment as the main means, which can rationally adjust the distribution relationship between urban and rural areas, regions and groups, protect legitimate income and ban illegal income.

  Raising the socialist market economic system to a basic economic system is an affirmation of the combination of socialist system and market economy.The socialist market economy is the combination of socialist system and market economy. Perfecting the socialist market economy system is to build an economic system with "effective market mechanism, dynamic micro-subjects and moderate macro-control", which is a combination of strong market, strong government and strong enterprises. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee brought the socialist market economy system into the basic economic system, which deepened our party’s understanding of the role of market economy and the relationship between market and government, and showed the world that the direction of developing socialist market economy in China will remain unchanged in the future.

  On the basis of adhering to the main role of public ownership economy, actively explore various forms of public ownership to promote high-quality economic development.

  The Decision of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee put forward "exploring various forms of public ownership" in the paragraph of state-owned economic reform. Putting "exploring various forms of public ownership" in the first sentence has profound significance.

  On the basis of adhering to the dominant position of public ownership, we can explore the diversification of public ownership.Public ownership and its realization form are the relationship between content and form. Under the premise of adhering to the dominant position of public ownership, the realization form of public ownership can be diversified, and the organizational form and management mode of public assets can be diversified with the goal of maintaining and increasing the value of public assets. The choice of the realization form of public ownership mainly depends on the development level of productive forces. At present, China is still in the primary stage of socialism, and the multi-level and unbalanced development of productive forces in the primary stage of socialism determines the diversification of the realization form of public ownership. The diversification of the forms of public ownership includes two meanings: the first meaning is that the forms of public ownership are diversified, and its own diversification includes ownership by the whole people and collective ownership, etc., and the diversified forms of public ownership can be combined with each other to form more diversified forms of public ownership. At the same time, the carrier of property rights of public ownership is also diversified, and the management system and mode of public ownership can also be diversified. The second meaning is that public ownership coexists with other forms of ownership in the primary stage of socialism, forming an ownership structure with public ownership as the main body and multiple ownership systems coexisting. According to the diversification of public ownership forms, we can promote the separation of ownership and management rights and realize the separation of state-owned economy and state-owned assets in concept and operation, which further shows that the realization form of public ownership economy is not only the type of state-owned enterprises, but also can explore various forms of realization.

  The state-owned economy should adjust its strategic layout, with progress and retreat.General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has made many speeches on the structural adjustment of the layout of the state-owned economy. He proposed, "Speed up the layout optimization, structural adjustment and strategic reorganization of the state-owned economy. Advance and retreat, do something different, innovate and develop a batch, reorganize and integrate a batch, clean up and withdraw a batch, promote the concentration of state-owned capital in strategic key areas and advantageous industries, and accelerate the strategic adjustment of the state-owned economy. " According to the exposition of the Supreme Leader General Secretary and the spirit of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee, we need to deepen the supply-side structural reform, adjust and optimize the layout structure of the state-owned economy, revitalize the manufacturing industry and the real economy, actively promote the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, and accelerate the development of strategic emerging industries. In the economic development of the new era, around the major strategy of serving the country, we should persist in making progress and retreating, and do something different. We should invest more state-owned capital in important industries and key areas that are related to the lifeline of the national economy, especially strategic emerging industries, promote the upgrading of economic structure, optimize the layout of state-owned assets and state-owned enterprises, and cultivate new economic growth points.

  Take mixed ownership as a new realization form of public ownership.The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee included the reform of mixed ownership in the scope of state-owned economy, which is to bring the reform of mixed ownership into the scope of ownership reform and explore the realization form of public ownership through the reform of mixed ownership. This means that the mixed ownership economy with cross-shareholding and mutual integration of state-owned capital, collective capital and non-public capital is an important realization form of the basic economic system. This form is conducive to amplifying the function of state-owned capital, improving the competitiveness of state-owned capital, expanding the development space of private capital, and promoting and developing all kinds of ownership capital together. As a new form of public ownership, the reform of mixed ownership is not only a breakthrough in the reform of state-owned enterprises, but also brings new opportunities for the development of private enterprises. Through the promotion of mixed ownership reform, we can promote the integrated development of state-owned capital and non-public capital, thus stimulating the endogenous power of China’s high-quality economic development.

  Improve the policy system to support the new form of public ownership.Exploring the new realization form of public ownership economy is to better adhere to the dominant position of public ownership, and developing mixed ownership economy is a new exploration of the realization form of public ownership and an important way to consolidate China’s basic economic system. However, the development of mixed ownership economy needs to improve the policy system supporting the new realization form of public ownership, and focus on solving the reform motive force of mixed ownership, the equal protection of all kinds of property rights in the reform of mixed ownership and the operation mechanism of mixed ownership. Focusing on the development of mixed ownership, it is necessary to highlight the transformation of operating mechanism, explore a management and control model that adapts to the development of mixed ownership economy, and enhance the enthusiasm and initiative of social capital to participate in the reform of mixed ownership of state-owned enterprises. We will create an integrated development of various ownership entities, use resource elements equally according to law, and form a market environment that is open, fair and just to participate in competition and equally protected by law.

  Combine the improvement of the high-level socialist market economic system with the construction of a high-level open economic new system to promote high-quality economic development.

  Achieving high-quality economic development requires certain conditions. This condition is the combination of the role of the government and the role of the market. The combination of a high-level domestic socialist market economic system and a high-level opening-up system is the institutional and institutional basis for achieving high-quality development. To this end, we should combine the improvement of the high-level socialist market economic system with the construction of a high-level open economic new system to promote high-quality economic development.

  On the basis of giving play to the decisive role of the market in resource allocation, we should correctly handle the relationship between the government and the market, give full play to the role of the government, and combine the role of the government with the role of the market to promote high-quality economic development.With the goal of high-quality development, we should correctly handle the relationship between the government and the market, realize the combination of the government and the market on the basis of effectively exerting the decisive role of the market, and accelerate the high-quality development. On the one hand, realize the combination of government function and market function. In the process of economic development, we should follow the laws of market economy and improve the market system. Clarify the decisive role of the market in resource allocation and truly change the mode of economic development. At the same time, we should change government functions, give play to the role of supervision, guidance and regulation, and play the role of government through macroeconomic regulation, making up for market failures and the supply of public goods. On the other hand, a modern economic system is established through the combination of government and market. Build an economic system with effective market mechanism, dynamic micro-subjects and moderate macro-control. Through the combination of the role of government and market, on the basis of quality reform, efficiency reform, power reform and improving total factor productivity, we will accelerate the construction of a modern economic system with supply-side structural reform as the main line. Build a modern industrial system with coordinated development of real economy, scientific and technological innovation, modern finance and human resources.

  Realize the combination of a high-level socialist market economy and a higher-level open economic new system to promote high-quality development.On the one hand, China should build a high-level socialist market economic system. Build a high-standard market system, speed up the improvement of the property rights system, and realize effective incentives for property rights. Accelerate the market-oriented allocation of factors and realize the free flow of factors. Create a unified, open and competitive market environment. Improve the property rights definition system, property rights allocation system and property rights transaction system, and promote the market-oriented allocation of factors. In accordance with the spirit of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee, improve the system and mechanism of scientific and technological innovation, improve the system and mechanism of encouraging and supporting basic research and original innovation, and improve the incentive mechanism of scientific and technological talents and the policy system of scientific and technological management. Establish a technological innovation system with enterprises as the main body, market orientation and deep integration of Industry-University-Research. On the other hand, it is necessary to build a new open economic system at a higher level. The Third Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee proposed to build a new open economic system, and the Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee proposed to build a new open economic system with a higher level. Comparatively speaking, the requirements for opening up are higher and the level is higher, which means that in the new era, we should implement comprehensive opening-up in a wider scope, in a wider field and at a deeper level. In order to achieve this goal, we should strive to create a market-oriented, rule-based and international business environment, further promote the construction of a new open economic system, and promote high-quality economic development with a high level of openness.
