　　Q: Is the report on global traceability in Covid-19 released by the World Health Organization on March 30th authoritative?

　　Ceng Yixin:The problem of virus traceability is a complex scientific problem. Since the outbreak of the epidemic, every responsible country and every responsible scientist is eager to find out the source of Covid-19. This is of great significance to prevent similar epidemics from happening again.

　　On March 30th this year, the World Health Organization officially released the joint research report "Global Traceability Research in Covid-19: Part of China" convened by WHO, and the global traceability research made a good start.

　　Governments, scientists and the media all over the world are very concerned about this report. Since its release a few months ago, more and more scientific evidence shows that this report is valuable, authoritative and can stand the test of science and history. The conclusion of the report is scientific, and the process of production always adheres to scientific principles.

　　This traceability research report is the China part of the global traceability research. The expert group draws the following conclusions: Coronavirus, which is closely related to Covid-19, has the highest homology with Covid-19 in terms of sequence, but these viruses are still not enough to prove that they are the direct ancestors of Covid-19, and there is still a certain gap. Combined with the research results of clinical epidemiology, animal and environmental detection, the joint expert group finally determined several possibilities for the virus to appear: the first one is "possible to relatively possible", and zoonosis directly overflows, that is, it directly overflows from animal hosts to people. The second is "more likely to be very likely", which is introduced through an intermediate host. Generally speaking, the natural host of the virus is an animal, and then it transits to people through the intermediate host. The third is "possibility", which is introduced through the cold chain. In some sporadic epidemics in various places last year, it was found that cold chain transmission may introduce viruses. The last one is the introduction of "extremely unlikely" in the laboratory.

　　In the next stage, the traceability work should be carried out under the overall coordination of WHO, and on the basis of the first stage of research, excellent experts from many countries should be organized to carry out in-depth work, scientists should be the mainstay, exchanges and cooperation should be strengthened, and the traceability work in Covid-19 should be carried out on a scientific track.

　　Q: Is Covid-19 naturally produced or caused by human factors?

　　Ceng Yixin:I really want to talk about my views on the second phase of the virus traceability plan released by WHO on July 15th. To tell you the truth, I was very surprised. Because in this plan, the hypothesis that "China violated laboratory regulations and caused virus leakage" is one of the research focuses. From this point, I can feel the disrespect for common sense and arrogant attitude towards science revealed in this plan. It is impossible for us to accept such a traceability plan.

　　What is the purpose of traceability? It is to find out the source of the virus and then take effective measures to prevent similar epidemics from happening again. Therefore, we must promote this work in accordance with scientific principles and rules. This is the attitude of the China Municipal Government.

　　So far, none of the staff and graduate students of Wuhan Institute of Virology has been infected with COVID-19. Wuhan Institute of Virology has not carried out research on the gain function of coronavirus, and there is no so-called artificial virus. So where did the virus leak due to violation of laboratory regulations come from? Therefore, this formulation violates both common sense and scientific laws. More importantly, the WHO expert group personally visited Wuhan Virus Institute, and reached the conclusion that the virus is extremely unlikely to be leaked from the laboratory. They are all very authoritative and experienced experts in various fields carefully selected by WHO. So we should respect their conclusions.

　　Yuan Zhiming:The Wuhan Institute of Virology has repeatedly responded to the rumors about the leakage of virus laboratories. Covid-19 originated from nature, which has become a general consensus in academic circles. I want to emphasize that before December 30, 2019, Wuhan Institute of Virology had not contacted, preserved or studied Covid-19. Wuhan Virus Research Institute has never designed, manufactured or leaked Covid-19.

　　Facing the sudden outbreak of COVID-19, Wuhan Institute of Virology quickly identified novel coronavirus with the advantages of platform, technology and talents accumulated for a long time, isolated the virus strain, determined the whole genome sequence, and submitted the whole genome sequence to the United Nations World Health Organization on January 12, 2020. These important research results have provided a foundation for the global antiviral drug screening and vaccine research, and also won time for the global fight against the epidemic.

　　Q: Is the original data of early communication in Wuhan public?

　　Yuan Zhiming:The structure and content of the database of Wuhan Institute of Virology are still in the process of continuous improvement. At present, the database is shared within Wuhan Institute of Virology. After analyzing and systematically sorting out some original data in the database, the staff will publish the research results in the form of papers, and display and retrieve them in the database in a visual way. After analyzing and sorting out the original data of scientific research, it will be published in the form of papers, and then the database will be made public. This is the practice of scientific and technological circles, and the Institute of Virology will strictly follow the rules of scientific and technological circles to display and share our scientific data.

　　Wuhan Institute of Virology has always insisted on the timely sharing of scientific research information, and we released the whole genome sequence to the World Health Organization in time. As early as February 3, 2020, Shi Zhengli’s research team published a research paper in Nature, proposing that Covid-19 came from nature. After we found that several drugs have antiviral activity at the cellular level, we published the research results in international magazines on February 4. At the same time, Wuhan Virus Research Institute also actively participated in the international video and audio conference held by the World Health Organization, and timely shared our research results in animal model establishment, antiviral drug screening, inactivated vaccine development in COVID-19, etc.

　　Q: What do you think about the possibility of virus spread caused by trade in cold chain products?

　　Wang Chen:The role of cold chain in the spread of infectious diseases is a new phenomenon. From Beijing Xinfadi epidemic situation and Qingdao epidemic situation, we can see such a close relationship, that is, the patients have been exposed to the cold chain, and no other possible virus sources have been found outside the cold chain.

　　In the detection of virus nucleic acid, cold chain goods nucleic acid detection is positive. Especially in the Qingdao epidemic, not only the virus nucleic acid positive was detected on the surface of cold chain items, but also the virus was isolated and cultured, which confirmed that there was a live virus on the surface of cold chain items. Combining these two points, the chain of evidence is gradually complete.

　　In the process of further virus traceability, we especially suggest that the cold chain should be regarded as a key traceability clue. At present, under the background of international trade, people and goods exchange frequently all over the world, and people in the cold chain environment — The spread of things has increased the complexity, which is particularly worthy of investigation and research.

Wenchang ＂Village VA＂ player： My parents played coconut as volleyball, and volleyball was my whole youth.

On the evening of July 7, the "Village VA" in Wenchang, Hainan will usher in a new round of competition, and fans and villagers will rush to the scene to watch the game.

As a matter of fact, volleyball is a national sport for Wenchang people. Every night, villages gather together to kill the ball, and people from 80 to several years old gather on the sidelines to watch. On the basis of a large-scale mass, "Hainan Volleyball Watching Wenchang" is famous.

On the evening of June 30th this year, the "99 Cup" Hainan (Wenchang) Township Volleyball League was officially opened in 2023. There are 52 games in this competition, with 17 local township teams and 3 teams from other cities and counties participating.

The contestants are all "grassroots players" in various towns and villages, so this competition is also called "Village VA" by the public. Among the players, some have made a name for themselves in Wenchang, and everyone knows them, just like local "star players". Fu Xiangming from Dongjiao Town participated in the first national nine-a-side volleyball competition on behalf of Hainan Province, and Fu Yongjin University from Longlou Town won the first place in the country when playing volleyball.

Fu Shu of Huiwen Town is 61 years old. He has played volleyball all his life and was once the main setter of Huiwen Team. Unable to bounce in his old age, he retired to the position of coach. In his memory, Wenchang volleyball has been playing hot since the 1960s. My parents pulled a rope between two coconut trees and used the coconut as a ball.

"Volleyball is my whole youth." Fu Yongzhen said. For many Wenchang people, volleyball is a sport that melts in the blood of bones and accompanies them all their lives.

The following is their self-report:

Volleyball scene. Figure/provided by respondents

[1] Fu Yongjin, Longlou Town

I am now a volleyball coach in Haikou. This year, people in the town called me back to participate in the "Village VA", and I said no problem. Come from Haikou when there is a game, and you won’t feel bitter. How can sports be afraid of suffering?

In primary school, there were many events for us to choose from in physical education class. I chose volleyball at once and have been playing volleyball ever since.

Sometimes I play at school, sometimes I draw a line in the sand and start playing. We don’t have regular teammates either. When the time comes, everyone will spontaneously gather and play freely. Children, students, adults, the elderly, from a few years old to more than 60 years old. Everyone’s occupations are also varied, including catching fish, touching shrimp and selling vegetables. Everyone really loves volleyball and can play all night, even until one or two in the morning.

I later went to Wenchang Middle School, joined the school volleyball team and won the third place in the country. The university is also playing volleyball and won the first place in the country. I’m good at hitting people out of bounds, which is all accumulated over the years. Volleyball has occupied my whole youth.

After graduation, I wanted to do something for my hometown volleyball career, and then I came back to become a volleyball coach.

The conditions of volleyball now are much better than before. In the past, we used to have a concrete floor, but now it is a plastic floor. Although the conditions are better, I feel that children’s enthusiasm for volleyball is not as high as I was when I was a child, which may also be related to the more developed mobile phones and networks and the more things that everyone contacts. So when I lead the team, I will control the time when they go out to play, and at the same time strengthen all aspects of training.

When teaching, I will be very happy to meet students with good talents. Those with good talents should be trained hard, and those with bad talents should be strengthened.

I am very proud to learn that Wenchang will hold the "Village VA" this year. Last week, our competition in Longlou Town was full and the atmosphere was hot. I’ve been to this before.Between town and townThe game, but the attention is not as high as this time. Looking at so many spectators at the scene, to be honest, our mood must be higher.

When we are on the field, we definitely want to win. Everyone wants to win. At present, our goal is to reach the top four first.

Players in our town range from 15 to 40. As long as you are from this town, you can participate as long as you can play ball, and you won’t get an age card. It has really achieved national sports. I sincerely hope that "Village VA" can be held every year.

Wenchang is the hometown of volleyball, and our skills are excellent. The local government also supports volleyball very much. I hope to take this opportunity to let more people see Wenchang volleyball, and I hope that volleyball will become more popular.

[2] Dongjiao Town xu feng

Our team in the eastern suburbs has always been the best in Wenchang. People like to play volleyball more than other places, and many people play all night. The phrase "Wenchang volleyball looks at the eastern suburbs" was spread in the 1990s.

I am 43 years old. I work in Chunguang Coconut Factory. I will come out to play in the afternoon and evening when I have nothing to do. I don’t need to organize a game. I will play as many people as I want. When there are less than a dozen people, when there are many, there are one or two hundred people, all of whom gather on the sidelines and wait for the rotation.

Playing ball was taught by myself when I was a child. How can anyone teach me? Watch those adults play, and we will play next to them. I used to play every day, and I played for four or five hours every day. If I played too much, I became "famous" when my skills went up.

I received the notice of the game a month ago. In recent years, I have played in Wenchang competitions, big and small, and we often win the first prize in the eastern suburbs. People from other teams basically know me. My style of playing ball is fierce, my spike and strength are great, and I am easy to remember.

Our eastern suburbs are older as a whole, all of them are old players, and the youngest is in their twenties and thirties. You don’t have to practice before the game. You have been practicing for 30 years before the game. What are you practicing now? Just go up and call.

[3] Fu Fanghuan in Tanniu Town

In my impression, the volleyball atmosphere here is particularly strong, and almost every village has a volleyball court. We are a red land here, and pulling a net directly on the ground is the venue, where adults play volleyball every day. Influenced by my predecessors, I started playing volleyball when I was around 9 years old. I played with my peers or my brother who was a few years older than me.

Now it’s often after 7 pm to play volleyball here. It’s cool. When I was a child, the conditions of playing ball were not as good as now. There were no lights in the open field, so I played in the afternoon. It’s hot in Hainan during the day, but everyone is very enthusiastic, so it doesn’t matter whether it’s hot or not. We children often pick up some unwanted nets replaced by adults, find a place to pull them, draw a line on the ground with our feet and start playing.

The school also supports us to play volleyball, and almost every class will buy one or two volleyball.

I have good jumping ability and explosive power, and I am a setter in the team. We haven’t studied volleyball specially, but I will watch and imitate the players who play well by myself. But I am not tall. When I was in middle school, I especially envied them for being tall and playing volleyball well, and being able to participate in school competitions.

I studied in a foreign university. The volleyball culture there is not as strong as Wenchang. We couldn’t get together a volleyball class, so I learned football. After graduation, I went back to work in Wenchang and played badminton, but I always liked volleyball. Usually, on holidays, a volleyball match will be organized in the village and town, and we all participate.

In March this year, I heard about the "Village VA". Our town attaches great importance to this matter, and when I was asked to attend, I immediately agreed.

I think this event is really well done. First of all, he chose the weekend night, and many people have time to attend and watch it. In addition, the weekly games are held in one place, so fans can watch them all at once, and there is no need to go to one place in a game. Some fans really watch every game. Finally, many booths were set up at the competition site to show their specialties to various towns, which I think played a very good publicity effect.

I went to the opening ceremony last week, and I was very excited. The slogan of our Tanniu town is: I love volleyball, we are the best!

We will play in Tanniu town next week. Our players are of different ages, both older and younger than me. We are looking forward to it, but we will not predict the ranking. If you want to win, others want to win, right? We will try our best to play every game well. If you are good enough, you will win if you play well. As the saying goes, "Friendship comes first, competition comes second". Of course, we still have some goals, for example, now we are playing the game with the goal of qualifying for the group.

[4] Fu Shu of Huiwen Town

I am 61 years old and I am the volleyball coach of Huiwen Team.

I started playing when I was very young. My father played on the court and I played beside the court. At the earliest time, there was no volleyball and net. Everyone pulled a thread between two coconut trees, which was the net, and used coconut as a ball to play. They used to play as a team and they would "fight sheep". Which team won the first place and got a goat.

When I was a child, I squatted by the court and watched it. Later, I went to school. There was volleyball in the school and I began to learn to play serious volleyball. I especially liked it. In 1983, I have been playing volleyball since I came back from school. During the day, I was a farmer, raising fish and shrimp, and at night I went to play ball. I have been playing volleyball all my life.

In the past, I was the main setter of the Huiwen team and participated in many competitions in the city on behalf of the Huiwen team. Now that I am too old to jump, I retired as a coach for eleven years.

Now that the internet is developed, I don’t like playing mobile phone and watching TV at home. I go to the stadium every night, and volleyball is my main entertainment. A few years ago, many people of our age were still playing on the court. In the past two years, they are too old to jump, so they just cushion the ball and upload it, so they can’t play in big games.

Recently, in the "Jiujiu Cup", every night around 8 o’clock, people in our town will play on the village courts. Children from a few years old to people in their eighties are all watching the ball on the sidelines, which is very lively. When they come, they can feel the atmosphere.

We have had quite a lot of volleyball matches in Wenchang. In previous matches, we won the second place in the city. This is a relatively big event. My goal is to make it to the quarter-finals at least and to "fight hard". This week, we will play at home. For this game, we also selected some good players from the town, and the players are in a particularly good state now.

The real estate market is expected to improve.

At present, the real estate market is experiencing a series of positive changes. On the one hand, the interest rate and down payment ratio of the first home loan in many places have declined, and the decline in market sales has narrowed significantly; On the other hand, the financing environment of real estate enterprises continued to improve, and the decline in real estate development investment narrowed.
Further release demand
Releasing rigid and improved housing demand is a key measure to promote the healthy and sustainable development of real estate. Reducing the mortgage interest rate and the down payment ratio will help to further release market demand.
The data shows that in March this year, the interest rate of the first mainstream mortgage in Shell Baicheng averaged 4.02%, a slight decrease of 2 basis points from last month; The average interest rate of the second mainstream mortgage was 4.91%, which was the same as last month. From the perspective of interest rate reduction, the mortgage interest rates in third-and fourth-tier cities dropped the most year-on-year, with the first and second mortgage interest rates dropping by 140 basis points and 75 basis points respectively.
"As of the end of December 2022, the average interest rate of newly issued personal housing loans dropped by about 140 basis points compared with the end of last year. Except for a few hot cities, the lower limit of the down payment ratio policy in most cities has reached the national bottom line. " Pan Gongsheng, deputy governor of the People’s Bank of China, said that from the demand side, the implementation of differentiated housing credit policies and continuous guidance of the real interest rate and down payment ratio will better support the rigid and improved housing demand.
At the same time, the speed of bank lending has also increased. The data shows that the average lending period of Shell Baicheng Bank in March was 21 days, which was 7 days shorter than last month. "For banks, housing mortgage loans are still high-quality assets." Ceng Gang, director of the Shanghai Finance and Development Laboratory, said that the credit scale of commercial banks was relatively abundant in the first quarter, which also improved the lending speed to some extent.
"Driven by a series of policies, there have been some positive changes in the real estate market, mainly in the obvious narrowing of the decline in market sales." Fu Linghui, director of the National Statistics Department of the National Bureau of Statistics, said that in the first two months of this year, the sales area of commercial housing decreased by 3.6% year-on-year, and the decline narrowed by 20.7 percentage points.
Repair supply-side expectation
In addition to the demand side, there have also been many positive changes in the supply side. The data shows that the investment in real estate development in the first two months decreased by 5.7% year-on-year, which was 4.3 percentage points narrower than that in 2022. The funds in place of real estate development enterprises decreased by 15.2%, and the decline narrowed by 10.7 percentage points; The prosperity index of real estate development in February was 94.67, which was higher than that in January.
"At present, China’s economy is stabilizing and picking up, and it is expected to improve, which will help narrow the decline in real estate investment." Lou Feipeng, a researcher at China Postal Savings Bank, said that the financial management department has introduced a number of policies and measures to improve the financing of real estate enterprises, and the financing of credit, bonds and equity has been "three arrows in one go" to continuously alleviate the financial pressure of real estate enterprises.
Since last year, the financial management department has issued 16 policies and measures to support the stable and healthy development of the real estate market, and has continued to promote the refinement and implementation of the policies. At present, the financial management department is carrying out four actions of "asset activation", "debt continuation", "equity supplement" and "expected promotion" to fully implement the plan to improve the balance sheet of high-quality housing enterprises. At the same time, we will slow down the excessive risk aversion of financial institutions and guide them to provide normal financing. Data show that in January this year, real estate development loans increased by more than 370 billion yuan, an increase of 220 billion yuan year-on-year.
In addition to improving the financing environment, the credit risk of the real estate industry has also converged. "We believe that in the past, the risk spread trend of housing enterprises has been curbed and the liquidity of housing enterprises has been significantly improved." Hu Gang, vice president of CITIC Bank, said. The 2022 annual report recently released by CITIC Bank shows that by the end of December 2022, the asset quality of the bank’s real estate industry and construction industry continued to show an improvement trend, and the balance of non-performing loans in the two industries decreased by 1.789 billion yuan and 1.251 billion yuan respectively compared with the end of last year.
"Although the financing environment has improved, the willingness of housing enterprises, especially private housing enterprises, to start new construction is still insufficient." Wen Bin, chief economist of China Minsheng Bank, said that it is expected that the growth rate of real estate development investment will still fluctuate in the process of recovery. Lou Feipeng believes that the main reason for this phenomenon is that the expectations of housing enterprises are still poor, so it is necessary to comprehensively stabilize and improve expectations.
Increasing confidence remains the key.
In February this year, the sales price of new commercial housing in first-tier cities rose by 0.2% month-on-month, the same as last month; The sales price of second-hand houses rose by 0.7% month-on-month, with an increase of 0.3 percentage points over the previous month.
"At present, the rebound of the second-hand housing market and the market heat are slightly higher than those of the new housing market." Wen Bin said that on the whole, the sustainability of the market recovery remains to be seen.
"The uncertainty of second-hand housing is low, and its demand depends on the expectations of buyers and rigid demand. In contrast, there is uncertainty in new houses, and the failure to deliver some houses on time has affected the willingness of buyers. " Ceng Gang said.
Luo Yifei, chief statistician of the Investment Department of the National Bureau of Statistics, said that it is necessary to continuously release the rigidity of the real estate market and the demand for improved housing, promote the construction of the "Baojiaolou" project, and gradually boost market confidence. "Last year, the policy of" guaranteeing the delivery of buildings "played an important role in ensuring people’s livelihood." Fu Linghui said. At present, the regulatory authorities have launched a special loan of 350 billion yuan for Baojiaolou, set up a loan support plan of 200 billion yuan for Baojiaolou and a loan support plan of 100 billion yuan for rental housing, and guided financial institutions to promote industry restructuring and mergers and acquisitions to speed up the marketization of risks.
"The most important thing now is to look at the changes in market confidence and demand side, mainly the changes in first-hand housing sales." Hu Wei said. The sale of first-hand houses means that housing enterprises sell new houses directly to individual customers. Its warming means that the funds of housing enterprises are returning to the good, which helps to alleviate the financial pressure of housing enterprises and resolve risks. "In real estate transactions, although the situation varies from place to place, on the whole, the transaction volume of first-hand houses is large, and the recovery of sales represents a rebound in demand, which has certain guiding significance for the judgment of the real estate market trend." Yan Feipeng said.
"The recent RRR cut implemented by the central bank can increase the medium and long-term loanable funds, which will help enhance the enthusiasm of financial institutions to support the financing of housing enterprises and meet the reasonable financing needs of housing enterprises." Wen Bin said that the RRR cut will release low-cost funds and help support rigid and improved housing demand through differentiated loan interest rates.
"At present, it is necessary to further stabilize the income growth expectations of residents." Ceng Gang said that for residents, mortgage is a long-term debt, and their willingness to spend and ability to pay debts depend on their stable employment and income growth. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the income of urban and rural residents through multiple channels and maintain the overall stability of the price situation.

American War Crimes Record ｜ Sharp Reference

　　Reference News Network reported on March 19 (text/Ping Yue Jiang Tao Huang Jin Zhang Weiwei) Former US President Jimmy Carter mentioned in a speech in June 2019 that only 16 years in the history of more than 240 years since the founding of the United States did not fight, which is called "the most combative country in the history of the world." In the words of Dakota Wood, a senior researcher in the defense program of the American Heritage Foundation, the United States is involved in a war every 15 years on average.

　　Since the end of World War II, the United States has launched or participated in many wars overseas, such as the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Afghan War, and the Iraq War, which have caused extremely serious civilian casualties and property losses and caused huge humanitarian disasters. Since 2001, the war and military actions launched by the United States in the name of anti-terrorism have caused more than 900,000 deaths, of which about 335,000 were civilians, millions were injured and tens of millions were displaced.

　　In today’s world, the hegemony, hegemony and bullying of the United States are obvious to all. In the major overseas wars directly launched or participated by the United States after the Cold War, the war crimes of this superpower are obvious.

　　:: Bombing Kosovo

　　[Time] March 24, 1999-June of the same year

　　[Crime] Without the authorization of the United Nations, NATO, led by the United States, carried out a continuous bombing of the then Federal Republic of Yugoslavia for 78 days under the banner of "preventing the humanitarian crisis in Kosovo". On May 7th of that year, the US forces involved in NATO bombing attacked the Embassy of China in Yugoslavia with missiles, which killed three China journalists, seriously injured many others and severely damaged the premises. In June of the same year, NATO signed an armistice agreement with Yugoslavia, and Kosovo was temporarily entrusted by the United Nations.

　　The war killed more than 2,000 innocent civilians, injured more than 6,000 people, displaced nearly 1 million people, and lost more than 2 million people’s livelihood, resulting in economic losses of more than 200 billion US dollars to Yugoslavia. According to statistics, NATO troops used at least 31,000 depleted uranium bombs, which led to a sharp increase in the incidence of cancer and leukemia in this region and had a long-term disastrous impact on the local and European ecological environment.

　　▲ On March 24, 2010, in Mitrovica, located in the north of Kosovo, Serb residents held the Serbian flag at a rally to mourn the victims of NATO air strikes against Yugoslavia 11 years ago. (Xinhua News Agency)

　　【 Consequence 】 In 2008, Kosovo unilaterally declared "independence". Serbia has always adhered to its sovereignty over Kosovo. The British "Guardian" published an article on the 10th anniversary of NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, saying that NATO bombing actually escalated the Kosovo crisis into a full-scale humanitarian disaster. German writer Michael Luders once wrote in his book that after the Kosovo War in 1999, NATO went beyond the principle of collective self-defense and launched a military operation against Yugoslavia, which caused civilian casualties in the name of humanitarianism. This shows that in the eyes of the United States and the European Union, human rights are only a secondary concern, especially when human rights standards are only applied to non-allies.

　　Iraq War

　　[Time] March 20, 2003-December 18, 2011

　　[Crime] Many countries, such as the United States and Britain, launched a military operation codenamed "Iraq Freedom" on the grounds that Iraq possessed "weapons of mass destruction". A few months after Saddam Hussein’s regime was overthrown, the United Nations indicated that its inspectors had not found any weapons of mass destruction. On December 18, 2011, with the withdrawal of the last batch of American soldiers, the Iraq war officially ended.

　　According to statistics, this war caused about 200,000 to 250,000 civilian deaths, of which more than 16,000 were directly killed by the US military and more than 1 million were homeless. The British "Guardian" reported that the Coalition forces led by the United States used a large number of depleted uranium bombs and white phosphorus bombs. A report from the Dutch peace organization PAX showed that American warplanes and tanks used nearly 10,000 depleted uranium bombs in the Iraq war in 2003, which led to a sharp increase in the birth defect rate of Iraqi babies after the war.

　　【 Consequence 】 After Saddam Hussein was overthrown, the United States dissolved Iraq’s military, security and intelligence infrastructure organizations during Saddam Hussein’s time, creating a huge security vacuum in Iraq and opening the door to armed militia organizations that were not controlled by the state.

　　According to the website of the Gulf News of the United Arab Emirates, a bloody sectarian civil war broke out in Iraq, which led to the emergence of the "Islamic State" organization. What the United States left in Iraq was an ignominious legacy — — Corruption is rampant, public services are poor, armed militia organizations are everywhere and sectarian differences are deepening.

　　The war in Afghanistan

　　[Time] October 7, 2001-August 30, 2021

　　[Crime] After the September 11th terrorist attacks in 2001, the United States and its allies launched a military strike against Afghanistan in early October of that year on the grounds that the Taliban in Afghanistan refused to hand over Osama bin Laden, the leader of Al Qaeda, and quickly overthrew the Taliban regime and stationed troops for a long time on the grounds of anti-terrorism. On August 30, 2021, the last US military transport plane took off from Kabul International Airport. This "longest war in American history" ended in the sudden withdrawal of the US military. This war, which lasted for nearly 20 years, caused 47,245 Afghan civilians and 66,000 to 69,000 Afghan soldiers and policemen who had nothing to do with the "September 11" incident to die in the US military operations, and more than 10 million people were displaced.

　　【 Consequence 】 The war in Afghanistan spanned the term of four American presidents and evolved into the longest war in the United States, so long that it itself became a "hasty stop" in the "9.11" era in the United States. The article in the British weekly New Politician pointed out that the Taliban’s victory in Afghanistan was not only called a solid blow to the dignity and reputation of the United States, but also a public denial of the foreign policy called "liberal intervention".

　　The United Nations World Food Program warned in 2021 that about 98% of Afghans do not have enough food, and Afghanistan is facing "avalanche hunger and poverty". After the United States withdrew from Afghanistan, it imposed economic sanctions on the Taliban regime and frozen billions of dollars of foreign exchange assets of the Central Bank of Afghanistan in the United States, which led to the collapse of the Afghan economy. The interim government formed by the Taliban needs to deal with the problems of striving for international recognition, restoring economic and social order, and cracking down on the extremist organization "Islamic State". Coupled with frequent natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods, Afghanistan still faces a serious economic and humanitarian crisis.

　　:: Air strikes against Libya

　　[Time] On the evening of March 19th, 2011.

　　[Crime] A riot broke out in Libya, which quickly developed into a civil war. On the grounds of the human rights crisis, the United States led NATO countries to indiscriminately bomb the Libyan government and military institutions under the banner of protecting citizens in Benghazi. According to the data released by NATO, from the end of March to the beginning of June of that year, NATO has dispatched 10,000 sorties, destroying about 1,800 targets. The air strikes also caused a large number of civilian casualties. According to the website of the Canadian Center for Globalization Studies, NATO fighters deliberately targeted the tents set up in front of Gaddafi’s official residence and brutally slaughtered civilians, but the mainstream media described these civilians as "radicals".

　　【 Consequence 】 Gaddafi was overthrown by the opposition, Libya’s economy quickly regressed, the country was completely divided, and it was caught in a stalemate in which the two regimes confronted each other with international support behind them. In addition, the rampant terrorist organizations have taken root in Libya, and Libya is still mired in war today.

　　Alan cooper Mann, an associate professor at the University of Texas at Austin, wrote in Foreign Affairs magazine that when the United States and its allies intervened in Libya in 2011, the civil war in Libya was nearing the end. At that time, about 1,000 people were killed, and at least 10,000 people were killed after western intervention. Since then, Libya has been in turmoil for a long time, with economic collapse, tribal scuffles and extremism. The refugee problem caused by this has finally caused great economic and social pressure on Europe. The United States, as the initiator, stayed out of it. At the same time, in the process of crossing the Mediterranean, refugee ships have caused many humanitarian disasters due to the constant capsizing accidents.

　　The United States, Britain and France jointly attacked Syria militarily.

　　[Time] In the early morning of April 14th, 2018,

　　[Crime] On April 7, 2018, some anti-government figures in Syria claimed that Syrian government helicopters dropped bombs containing chemical agents on the town of Duma that day. The United States identified the Syrian government as launching a chemical attack on the Duma as an excuse to use force against Syria. The Syrian government said that the so-called chemical attack in Duma was fabricated. In the early morning of April 14, 2018, the United States, Britain and France carried out a "precision strike" against Syria without the authorization of the United Nations, and fired more than 110 cruise missiles and air-to-surface missiles at Syrian military and civilian facilities from the air and sea, causing at least six Syrian civilians to be injured. In order to "prove innocence", the United States has continuously released videos on the Internet about the Syrian people being attacked by chemical weapons. However, more and more evidence shows that the videos published by western media are suspected of fraud.

　　After the civil war broke out in Syria in 2011, the United States and its western allies strongly supported the Syrian opposition armed forces, which led to the local war and conflict continuing to this day. Since 2017, the United States has launched an air strike against Syria on the grounds of "preventing the Syrian government from using chemical weapons." From 2016 to 2019, Syria recorded 33,584 civilians who died in the war. Among them, 3833 people were directly killed by the bombing of the United States-led Coalition forces, half of whom were women and children. On November 9, 2018, the American public television network reported that only the so-called "most accurate air strike in history" launched by the US military on the city of Raqqa killed 1,600 civilians.

　　【 Consequence 】 The US-led military strike has further complicated the situation in Syria. According to a survey conducted by the World Food Program in April 2020, about one third of Syrians do not have enough food, and 87% of them have no savings. According to the estimation of Doctors of the World, since the beginning of the war in Syria, about 15,000 doctors (about half of the total number of doctors in the country) have fled the country, 6.5 million people have been internally displaced and 5 million people have fled as refugees.

　　The United States and its western allies strongly supported the Syrian opposition armed forces and tried to overthrow the Syrian government by supporting agents, which led to local wars and conflicts that have continued to this day. The civil war has made Syria the bloodiest battlefield in the Middle East, expanded the ethnic and sectarian rift in Syria, led to the expansion of extremist forces, the spillover of the refugee crisis, and the constant violent conflicts, making the situation in the Middle East more turbulent.

　　In addition to the above-mentioned head-on conflicts, the United States has also adopted such "unconventional" wars as "shadow war" (assassination by using remote-controlled drones and "targeted killing" by dispatching small-scale special forces in the Middle East, Africa and Asia) and "proxy war" (supporting the Mujahideen guerrillas during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the recent conflict between Russia and Ukraine).

　　According to a report on February 28th, 2023 on the website of the US Capitol Hill Daily, "From January 2022 to January 2023, the amount of US military assistance to Ukraine has reached $77.5 billion".

　　Christopher Kelly and Stuart Laycock, American historians, pointed out in their book "American Aggression: How We Invaded or Intervened in Almost Every Country on the Earth" that among the more than 190 countries recognized by the United Nations, only three countries have not fought with the United States or been subjected to its military intervention. These three countries were able to "survive" because "the United States did not find them on the map."

　　Tufts University’s research report "Military Intervention Project: A New Data Set of American Military Intervention from 1776 to 2019" shows that from 1776 to 2019, the United States conducted nearly 400 military interventions around the world, 34% targeted Latin America and the Caribbean, 23% targeted East Asia and the Pacific, 14% targeted the Middle East and North Africa, and 13% targeted Europe. At present, US military intervention in the Middle East, North Africa and sub-Saharan Africa is on the rise.

Airborne succession Yi Jianlian？ Xinjiang men’s basketball team took the initiative to ＂attack＂ and traded with Liaoning+Guangdong.

Airborne succession Yi Jianlian? Xinjiang men’s basketball team took the initiative to "attack" and traded with Liaoning+Guangdong. Qi zhou has always been one of the most talented centers in the men’s basketball team. He has a very top-class wingspan and a good three-pointer skill.

Now qi zhou has always been compared with his former teammate James Harden by fans. Now Harden has no other team willing to take over. The main reason is that his temper is too unstable, and some fans think that although he goes to a new team, it will definitely not last more than two seasons.

Qi zhou is better than me, but his main obstacle now is his transfer fee. However, some fans think that he is totally worth it. Even if he gets it, it is equivalent to having half a foot on the stage of the finals. And we will also find that the words "Where is qi zhou going?" have always been a hot search.

Recently, according to a reporter’s report, Xinjiang may want to take the initiative to get rid of the mess of qi zhou, and they are already seeking negotiations between Guangdong and Liaoning teams. If the chips given by any team are rich enough, they will trade with that team and send them out to qi zhou. What do you think of this?

The gunners lost the game unexpectedly, which made Manchester City win the Premier League three times in a row. Gua Shuai won the Premier League crown in 6 years and 5 years to build the Blue Moon Dyn

In the early morning of Beijing time, Arsenal lost 0-1 away to Nottingham Forest, a newly promoted horse, sending Manchester City to lock the Premier League title in advance this season, and the home team also decided to avoid relegation in advance with this victory.

Nottingham forest goal

After Arsenal lost, Manchester City was 3 points ahead of the second-ranked Arsenal in the case of two rounds less, and Arsenal only had the last round to play in the Premier League this season, so Blue Moon Manchester City won the league championship three rounds ahead of schedule, achieving three consecutive championships in the Premier League. In the past six seasons, Manchester City won the Premier League titles in 2017-2018, 2018-2019, 2020-2021, 2021-2022 and 2022-2023, creating the Blue Moon Dynasty in the British arena. In addition, Manchester City won the 9th top English league title in team history and the 7th Premier League title in team history. It is worth mentioning that Blue Moon.Became the second club to achieve three consecutive Premier League titles.. Previously, only Ferguson-era Manchester United won three consecutive championships twice in the Premier League, from 1998-1999 to 2000-2001 and from 2006-2007 to 2008-2009. Looking at the history of the top leagues in England, only Huddersfield, Arsenal and Liverpool have won three consecutive championships.

Premier League standings (as of the early morning of May 21st, Beijing time)

Manchester City coach Guardiola once again showed his unparalleled league stability.After 14 seasons of coaching in the top leagues, only three champions fell by (Barcelona once, Manchester City twice).. In the summer of 2016, Guardiola moved from Bayern to Manchester City, which started the career of coaching in the Premier League. Except for not winning the championship in the first season, the next six seasons began a crazy cup-winning frenzy. According to statistics,After coaching Manchester City, Guardiola has led his team to win 12 championship trophies, including 5 Premier League, 4 League Cups, 2 Community Shield Cups and 1 FA Cup, winning 12 championships in just 6 years.Guardiola has created a miracle. It is worth mentioning that Guardiola also completed the great cause of three consecutive league titles during his previous coaching of Barcelona and Bayern. At present, only Serie A and Ligue 1 in the five major leagues have not yet "got their hands on".

Manchester City locked in the Premier League championship three rounds ahead of schedule, and Manchester City fans celebrated outside the Etihad Stadium. According to vision china,

At present, the total number of champions in Guardiola’s coaching career has reached 33, ranking third in the history of football after Ferguson (49) and Lucescu (37). At the same time, he has got rid of Mourinho’s eight champions, who now coaches Rome and can win the Europa League at most this season. Guardiola still has the opportunity to attack the Champions League and the FA Cup. According to British media reports,If Manchester City finally wins the treble this season, they will get a total bonus of 285.1 million pounds, equivalent to 2.5 billion yuan, setting a new record for the bonus of English teams in a single season.

Arsenal, the gunner, is very sorry this season. Throughout the season, Arteta’s team occupied the top spot for 248 days but missed the championship, creating a Premier League record. On this list of regrets, the second to fifth places are Newcastle United for 212 days (1995-1996), Arsenal for 189 days (2002-2003), Manchester United for 187 days (1997-1998) and Arsenal for 156 days (2007-2008)-the gunners occupy 3 seats in TOP5. In addition, Arsenal’s hip-pulling in this game has completed Nottingham Forest. The team scored 37 points and has officially completed relegation. This season,Nottingham Forest, Fulham and Bournemouth were all relegated. This is the fourth time after the 2001-2002, 2011-2012 and 2017-2018 seasons that all three newly promoted horses in the Premier League have avoided a one-year tour.

The American goblin once set a record for the Bundesliga’s transfer fee, but now in the Netherlands, it has suffered the humiliation of relegation.

I wonder how many people still remember Ricardo Pepi’s name. The 20-year-old player has been playing in the Europa League for more than a year. But his growth was not smooth.

Pepi started playing in the American professional league at the age of 16. In 2021, he scored 13 goals and sent 2 assists in the league, when Pepi was only 18 years old. His outstanding performance quickly attracted the attention of European giants. Pepi made his debut against Honduras in September 2021, showing his unique talent, scoring 1 goal and assisting 2 times.

He joined augsburg in 2022 with a price of 16.36 million euros, which set a record for the team. His Bundesliga friends all know what this means to the team. This is definitely the amount of blood that an ordinary team like augsburg has to pour. But Pepi is either too young or too inexperienced, and has never been the main player in augsburg.

So far, he has played 16 times for the team, playing only 582 minutes, without scoring or assisting. The team was very disappointed with his performance. Augsburg finally decided to send him out for training. It is said that he can go to Holland to get back on his feet or start a new career without playing in the Bundesliga, but Pepi’s bad luck soon led to the team’s demotion.

After signing Domirovich this season, Pepi’s position in the club became even more embarrassing, and he clearly realized that it would be difficult for him to compete with his opponents. In the end, augsburg’s first priority is to survive.

He was loaned to Groningen this season, but missed the first five rounds of the league because he was late. However, although he didn’t run, he scored 13 goals and 3 assists. Groningen is not in good form this season, and it’s a pity that they were relegated so early. After 33 years in Holland, the team was finally relegated. This rare spectacle for thousands of years has finally been met by Americans.

In the first four quarters after joining, he scored four goals and assisted once, but the team only scored three goals in these four games. Despite a good start, Pepi didn’t score many goals in the second half of the league, which directly affected the team’s goal efficiency.

However, despite his poor performance in the Dutch league, he was re-elected to the American national team in March this year, playing against Granada and El Salvador successively, and scored three goals in those two games. And the national team won in a row. He is still regarded as an important member of the national team. After all, he is only 20 years old, and the next World Cup will be the mainstay.

Changzhou Mobile： 5G networked drones escort Maoma

Meeting Point News Recently, the 2023 Jintan Maoshan Half Marathon started, and more than 10,000 runners from all over the country came to participate. As the communication support unit of the event, Changzhou Mobile quickly launched an emergency plan to meet the communication needs of the event site. At the same time, it joined Jiangsu Sanyi Airlines to dispatch a 5G networked drone to strengthen air security for the event.

Different from the smoothness of the city marathon, the whole track of "Maoma" is connected in series with the superior mountain scenery of Jintan Maoshan, which not only enhances the competitive experience of runners, but also brings challenges to network security.

Women’s table tennis won the championship and runner-up! World No.1 Sun Yingsha 0-4 Chen Meng! Three reasons for losing!

On April 23rd, in the second semi-final of the women’s singles in the 2023 table tennis WTT Macau Championship, the women’s singles final of the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games was repeated!

Sun Yingsha, the world’s number one, fights Chen Meng, the captain of women’s table tennis. It’s really a dragon-tiger war!

The result was very unexpected. Chen Meng directly swept Sun Yingsha 4-0 to avenge the 0-4 defeat in Xinxiang Championship last week!

The scores of the four games were: 16-14, 11-6, 11-8 and 11-9. Chen Meng personally ended Sun Yingsha’s impressive record of winning 24 consecutive singles in the international competition, and she fought Manyu Wang in the final and won the gold medal in the sword!

According to insiders, Sun Yingsha also lost for a reason, mainly for three points:

1) When Sun Yingsha lost the forehand short ball served by Chen Meng, she didn’t pay much attention to it. She ate more serve, and the quality of the catch was not high. She didn’t fight. After all, it was a civil war.

2) Sun Yingsha lost in serving willfully. From the third game to the fourth game, she fell behind 6-7, and her one-track forehand hook never changed until she committed suicide, falling behind 6-8, haha, without impacting Chen Meng;

3) Sun Yingsha has no desire to win, and now her score is too high. It’s not a foreign war. Sun Yingsha doesn’t care. Chen Meng played very well and competed for the gold medal in the final. Sun Yingsha can sit quietly!

Fans have laughed.

To tell the truth, I don’t believe Sasha will be shaved!

First, Ma Lin is the happiest, giving advice to Chen Meng and practicing with Chen Meng. The confidant disciple of the head coach won the game!

It’s amazing to see that Sasha can’t play and can’t even catch the ball. I’m puzzled. It’s like a different person.

Watching the live CCTV game, Sasha didn’t want to win tonight’s game. Each of the two games won 4-0. Hello, I’m good. It’s even. There are no winners, Ma Lin and Chen Meng!

Xiaobian thinks:

On April 23rd, congratulations on Chen Meng’s 4-0 sweep of Sun Yingsha. Is there any moisture in it?

Let history answer it!

Forecast:

Chen Meng will thank Sun Yingsha, who fought Manyu Wang in the final and avenged her 2-4 loss to Manyu Wang in the semi-final of the 2021 World Championships in the United States. In the end, she swept Manyu Wang 4-1 to win the championship, and China returned as the king, laying a good foundation for the women’s singles championship except the World Championships in January!

Is that what everyone said?

Can artificial intelligence ＂resurrect＂ the dead？ Isn’t it a good thing that Microsoft ＂resurrects＂ mankind？

Although Microsoft is not an Internet company in the traditional sense, it also occupies the market share of the Internet sales platform by virtue of its influence and excellent perception. Nowadays, Microsoft has obtained the patent for approving AI to resurrect the dead.

This patent is both surprising and admirable. It turns out that Microsoft has developed a new technology, which uses the personal information of the deceased to import this information into a voice chat robot, so that the deceased can realize digital "resurrection". Simply put, it is to implant the voice of the deceased into the intelligent system. When we talk to the chat robot, the voice of the deceased will come out, giving people the illusion that the deceased is still there.

Netizens immediately launched positive comments and negative comments. On the one hand, AI’s resurrection of the dead is not conducive to the progress of the whole society, but also affects people’s formation of correct ethical concepts. Scientists also believe that it may not be a good thing to use artificial intelligence to revive human beings. With the continuous development of artificial intelligence, science and technology departments are trying to use artificial intelligence to revive human beings, which many people think is harmful to human beings.

On the other hand, AI can bring psychological comfort to relatives, and people don’t have to be immersed in sadness for a long time, and they can still feel their loved ones at their side all the time.

Using artificial intelligence technology, scientists have successfully created some robots, which can serve mankind better and indeed provide convenience in life. It seems that the continuous development of artificial intelligence technology can promote the progress of human civilization, but many people are worried about it. They think that the field of artificial intelligence in scientific research is very narrow now, and it is basically impossible to achieve super-intelligent artificial intelligence.

This idea has been opposed by many people, who think that human beings transformed by artificial intelligence cannot be counted as real people. A living person should not only have the ability of autonomous activities, but also have his own way of thinking and memory. It is essentially different from human beings to resurrect human beings as robots through special means. Even if we can use chips to store human memories, robots can’t generate self-thinking, and there is no way to compare with real humans.

Theoretically, it is impossible for human beings to completely control super-intelligent artificial intelligence. Even if robots can complete tasks independently, they cannot completely imitate human behavior characteristics. The development of artificial intelligence may not be a good thing for human beings. After making robots think, they may trample on the world created by human beings.

The development of a new thing is bound to be accompanied by controversy. Although many people are full of hope for this new technology, some people are worried. There is no doubt that the rapid development of artificial intelligence can not be separated from human wisdom, but if artificial intelligence reaches its peak, will it pose a threat to human beings?

If Microsoft successfully resurrects the dead, then people’s nostalgia and affection for the dead will become insignificant. Over time, everyone can’t produce correct emotional concepts and ethical concepts, which ultimately affects the development of the whole society.

Generally speaking, Microsoft has both advantages and disadvantages when it is granted the patent of AI resurrected deceased, so netizens have mixed opinions.
