Outdoor hiking, safety homework should be done.

Follow-up to "Tourists Lost and Trapped for 12 Hours, Multi-department Linkage Successfully Rescued"

Trapped tourists send pennants to thank them, and their statements remind them that "outdoor sports are risky"

Liuyang Daily News (Reporter Liu Xieyu) On March 2, Mr. Zhou, a young man from other places, went to Dawei Mountain National Forest Park to play alone, and got lost in the forest path while climbing Wuzhishan. Mr. Zhou was only able to escape from danger after all-night search and rescue by the Daweishan National Forest Park Management Office, the Daweishan Police Station and the fire rescue station at the entrance of the Municipal Fire Rescue Brigade (Liuyang Daily reported on March 7, 2006).

After a few days’ rest, Mr. Zhou made a special trip to Liuyang on March 9 to express his deep gratitude to the units and departments involved in the rescue.

"Young man, later must pay attention to, can’t so rashly into the depths of the forest. When you come to Dawei Mountain to play in the future, you must take the built trails, and it is best to travel together. " Tan Jianren, chief of the security section of the management office of Dawei Mountain National Forest Park, did not forget to send a reminder after receiving the banner.

In the face of these hard-working search and rescue staff, Mr. Zhou thanked and apologized. He said that in the past few days when I returned to Changsha to rest, I closed my eyes and sometimes I was trapped in the mountains that night. I felt very embarrassed at the same time. "So many people have been looking for me in the mountains all night, which has caused trouble for everyone. I hope more outdoor enthusiasts can learn my lesson and don’t take risks. "

News focus

Nowadays, outdoor hiking is becoming a way for more and more people to relax and challenge themselves. As spring returns to the earth and the weather gets warmer, more and more professional "donkey friends" and non-professional outdoor enthusiasts choose to go into Shan Ye to embrace nature and relax. However, the outdoor conditions are complex and there are all kinds of risks and challenges. Mr. Zhou’s thrilling experience has also sounded the alarm for outdoor sports enthusiasts.

Combined with Mr. Zhou’s experience, the reporter interviewed outdoor hiking experts, Red Cross Blue Sky Rescue Team, fire rescue personnel and other professionals, and compiled a safety guide for outdoor hiking for the reference of outdoor hiking enthusiasts.

Be in awe and anticipate risks.

"Compared with regular travel, it is more important to predict risks in advance when playing outdoors, and we must be in awe of nature." Wu Leyi, director of Changsha Mountaineering Outdoor Sports Association, is a well-known outdoor sports expert in Liuyang and has the certificate of "National Intermediate Outdoor Instructor" issued by chinese mountaineering association. In his view, whether it is a professional outdoor sports practitioner or a tourist, it is necessary to "predict the risks" before traveling. "Being awed is not empty talk, and you must not despise any mountain."

Wu Leyi introduced that there are many risk factors in outdoor sports, including geographical environment, weather conditions, external liaison and other risks. "Before going out, you should fully understand the destination and conduct risk assessment. If you don’t have sufficient preparation and grasp, don’t take risks. This is the bottom line advice for all lovers who yearn for outdoor and outdoor activities."

"As professionals, every time we go hiking in a strange place, we still have to step on the spot in advance, contact the locals to get familiar with the geographical environment, and at the same time find out the risk points in the route, arrange personnel to meet at the foot of the mountain, and plan the emergency evacuation route." What worries Wu Leyi is that in the process of outdoor hiking, many "donkey friends" have no basic perception of the potential risks of nature. "All their thoughts are on the scenery, on curiosity, on punching cards, and even some women are hiking in skirts and high heels to take pictures."

Follow the team and prepare your equipment.

Infinite scenery behind the dangerous peaks and beautiful scenery, don’t forget the existence of danger. Wu Leyi reminded that outdoor hiking is a sport with a professional threshold. The novice "donkey friends" should follow the professional team as much as possible and should not walk alone. After all, the professional team has richer experience, sharper judgment, more cautious attitude and more complete materials. "All these have only one purpose, that is, to start happily and come back safely."

For some outdoor "little whites", Wu Leyi reminded that outdoor activities are not as beautiful as imagined, and the process is full of hardships and difficulties. In daily outdoor activities, he will ask participants to equip themselves with basic outdoor equipment, such as hiking shoes, trekking poles, sweat-wicking underwear, etc. "If you enter the no-man’s land, you should also equip yourself with satellite phones, and even set up a pre-set supply station in advance."

Wu Leyi, for example, has a well-known hiking route in China-"Aotai" line (a hiking route running through Aoshan Mountain in Qinling Mountains and Taibai Mountain), and there have been many outdoor hiking accidents in recent years. "It is located at the junction of the north and south of China, and the temperature is prone to drastic changes. It is often high enough to wear short sleeves during the day and it snows heavily at night." Wu Leyi said that some inexperienced "donkey friends" only carry a small amount of equipment and clothes for the convenience of outdoor sports. Once they are trapped in danger, their supply and insulation will become a problem.

"Encountering rain and snow in the mountains can easily lead to temperature loss and even life-threatening." Wu Leyi recalled that he had suffered from negligence during an outdoor hike. "At that time, all shoes, socks and clothes were wet, and my body kept shaking, my hands were numb and my breathing was short. Fortunately, we brought many professional outdoor survival equipment and lit a bonfire. Only then did we slowly recover."

Wu Leyi suggested that inexperienced new "friends" should travel with professional teams. "On the one hand, they can get care, and they can get rescue in time if an accident happens. On the other hand, they can learn outdoor knowledge and accumulate experience with professionals during hiking."

In addition, outdoor hiking is often more than ten kilometers, which tests the physical fitness of participants. "Donkey Friends" can consciously exercise their bodies and endurance before leaving.

Make a good plan and stay calm.

Li Tengfu, captain of the Liuyang Red Cross Blue Sky Rescue Team, who has rich experience in field search and rescue, said that in the search and rescue missions he participated in, many "friends" who got lost and trapped had one thing in common: they climbed mountains rashly with a passion and did not plan well in advance.

"A few years ago, we carried out many search and rescue operations in Daowu Mountain and Dawei Mountain. Many of the tourists were from other places. After seeing short videos on the Internet, they broke into the mountains almost unprepared." Li Tengfu said that the outdoor environment is very complicated, especially in densely forested areas, and it is easy to get lost.

"The surrounding environment is similar, and you can’t find your way when you walk a few steps." Mr. Zhou recalled that getting lost happened almost in an instant. "There was snow everywhere, and with the thick fog, I couldn’t find my way before."

Li Tengfu introduced that the climate in mountainous areas is changeable, so it is particularly important to plan the route and time before entering the forest. Take Mr. Zhou as an example. He is still climbing to the top of the mountain at 4 o’clock in the afternoon, and his time planning has great security risks. "At this time, it is getting late, and the risk of climbing at night is even greater. Be sure to plan well and leave enough time for going down the mountain. "

In addition, in the process of climbing, try not to copy unfamiliar shortcuts and trails. Tan Jianren reminded that most of the incidents of getting lost and being trapped were caused by cutting corners and taking small paths. "After Mr. Zhou got lost, he used his mobile phone to locate and navigate, hoping to take the small path out according to the general direction, which also led him to go further and further."

If tourists get lost and get trapped, they must stay calm and ask for help in time, and wait for rescue in a safe place. "The search and rescue of Mr. Zhou took so long, partly because he changed his position many times in a panic, which led us to pass by." Li Jinglin, the stationmaster of Guankou Fire Rescue Station, said that rescuers arrived near Mr. Zhou’s location many times that night, but because Mr. Zhou slipped down the hillside twice in the process of finding the road, rescuers could not lock their position for a long time.

Li Jinglin reminded that if you are lost and trapped, don’t look for a way out rashly. If your mobile phone has a signal, you should immediately call the police or contact the local authorities, and stay in the same place or where there are obvious signs to wait for rescue.

These equipments are indispensable for outdoor hiking.

knapsack

According to the experience of "donkey friends", you can choose a backpack with a capacity of 28 liters or less with reference to a one-day trip; For a 2-to 3-day trip, you need to prepare a backpack with a capacity of 28 liters to 50 liters.

Rush suit

The main function of the suit is to prevent rain and wind. It is best to choose a suit with a hood and an adjustable rope buckle. The lining of the jacket should be breathable mesh lining, so that hot air and moisture can be discharged quickly, and it is not cumbersome and tight to wear on the body.

Walking shoes

Choose shoes according to the route, intensity and terrain of hiking. For short-distance hiking, you can generally choose low-top or middle-top hiking shoes, and choose shoes with lighter weight and higher comfort. It is best to choose shoes with certain grip to cope with wet and smooth roads. It is recommended to choose one or half yards larger.

water

The most important thing when going out is to bring enough water. It is recommended to prepare 2 liters of water a day, or you can bring functional drinks to replenish water and absorb energy at the same time.

Sunscreen and heatstroke prevention equipment

Hats, ice sleeves, sun protection face towels and sunglasses are common physical sun protection equipment. Those who wear glasses can consider sunglasses clips. In addition, you can also consider sunscreen, cool spray and Bergmite stickers.

kneecap

When hiking or climbing a mountain, especially when going downhill, it is necessary to prepare a pair of knee pads, which can play the role of sports protection, cold protection and joint maintenance.

trekking pole

When climbing a mountain, if the knee is weak, it is recommended to prepare a trekking pole. The trekking poles can improve the stability of walking and reduce the burden on the legs, while using two trekking poles can maintain a good balance.

headlamp

Be sure to bring lighting items such as flashlights when hiking outdoors overnight, so as to find directions or set up tents at night. You’d better choose a light headlight, and it won’t be a burden to wear it on your head.

Female donkey friends walked alone on the "Locke Line" and lost contact for 9 days. More than 100 police and people searched and rescued.

  Huaxi Dushi Bao-cover journalist Xu Xiangdong

  In 1928, Joseph Charles Francis Rock, an American explorer, came to Muli County, Liangshan Prefecture, crossed the vast mountains and virgin forests, and went to Aden, a rice city in Ganzi Prefecture. This route was called the Lok Line, from which the word "Shangri-La" came. The scenery along the Lok Line is absolutely beautiful, with three main snow-capped mountains. It is the top hiking route in China and attracts many outdoor enthusiasts.

  On April 19th, Jing Qianqian, a 31-year-old female donkey friend from Qingdao, Shandong Province, challenged the Lok Line. She arrived in Muli County and planned to cross the Lok Line on foot alone. On April 20th, she started crossing from Dulu Village in Muli County, and originally planned to arrive in Aden four days later, but since the 20th, she has been in a state of losing contact.

  After Jing Qian lost contact, Muli County dispatched more than 100 people to the mountains for search and rescue in three ways.

  On the morning of April 29th, good news came. The police and local villagers of Shuiluo Police Station of Muli County Public Security Bureau found Jing Qianqian who was injured and had a weak breath near Baishui River in Shuiluo Township, and rescued her from the mountain. At this time, she has persisted in living in the wild for 9 days.

  go missing

  Uninvited wizard

  Female donkey friends hike the Lok Line alone.

  According to Jing Qianqian’s brother-in-law, Mr. Wang, Jing Qianqian is single, a doctor and an outdoor enthusiast, with good physical fitness and relevant field hiking experience.

  Before leaving for Muli this time, Jing Qianqian told her sister and a friend about her travel plan, saying that there was no cell phone signal for a few days during the hike, and she would report peace after the signal.

  For most people, the Lok Line is a strange word. Jing Qianqian’s family is not aware of its danger. In addition, she has had many experiences in the field before, and her family did not discourage her.

  On April 18th, Jing Qianqian set off from Beijing, flew to Chengdu and took the train to Xichang. On the 19th, I took a bus from Xichang to Muli. Then, start from Muli County, arrive at Shuiluo Township, and then go to Dulu Village. On the 20th, from Dulu Village to Shuiluo Gold Mine, the crossing officially started.

  Combined with the online strategy, she drew up a planned itinerary: after leaving on April 20, she walked 15 kilometers that day and arrived at Mancuo Cattle Farm for camping (4000 meters above sea level); On the 21st, walk 11km to Wanhuachi Cattle Farm (4200m above sea level); On the 22nd, I walked 11 kilometers and arrived at Xinguo Cattle Farm (4270 meters above sea level). On the 23rd, I walked for 12 kilometers and arrived at Xiadu Cattle Farm (4400 meters above sea level). On the 24th, walk 13km and arrive at the destination Aden Scenic Area (3,700 meters above sea level).

  Dulu Village, Shuiluo Township, is the starting point of hiking on the Lok Line. Further on, there is no road and no cell phone signal.

  At about 7: 00 p.m. on April 19, Tser Onding, a villager in Dulu Village, met Jing Qianqian with a backpack at Shuiluo Township Bus Terminal. Jing Qianqian told Er Onding that she was going to Dulu Village, preparing to cross the Lok Line, and was waiting for the contacted car to pick her up.

  At that time, it was getting dark and Dulu village was still far away. When I saw Jing Qianqian alone, Er Onding drove her to her destination for free. Halfway to the garage, Tashi, a villager who came to pick up Jing Qianqian, arrived, so Jing Qianqian changed to Tashi’s car and went to Dulu Village. That night, Jing Qianqian added Er Onding as a friend through WeChat.

  On April 20, Jing Qianqian set out and started hiking alone without a guide. According to the crossing plan, she should have arrived in Aden on April 24, but she has never contacted her friends and family, and her mobile phone has been disconnected, and she has lost contact.

  Tsering Onding said that after April 20th, he never received Jing Qianqian’s WeChat again, sent no messages back, and his circle of friends was not updated.

  look for

  Hundreds of people enter the mountains.

  Three search and rescue teams, three lines for search and rescue.

  Before the crossing, Jing Qianqian met a friend and met in Aden on April 24th, but she stood me up. Her friend immediately contacted Jing Qianqian’s family, and the family then called the police in Aden Scenic Area and asked for help.

  After searching, the rescue team in Aden Scenic Area did not find Jing Qianqian in the Aden area. Judging from this, she is still located in Muli County.

  "I should persuade her again." For Jing Qianqian’s loss of contact, Tsering Onding regretted it. At that time, he had been persuading Jing Qianqian to invite a guide and a team leader. It was dangerous to go alone, but he failed to persuade her.

  On April 25, the day after Jing Qian lost contact, Muli County Public Security Bureau 110 received an alarm from Jing Qian’s family and asked for it. The local government and the police immediately launched an emergency linkage mechanism, organized three search and rescue teams, and went into the mountains for search and rescue in three routes. At the same time, print the searching for you announcement and paste it along the way.

  According to the police investigation, Jing Qianqian entered the mountain near Shenxian Cave, Baishui River, Qila Village, Shuiluo Township.

  The first rescue team, led by Er Danzhu, started from the Xialuo formation in Qila village, passed Zhaheqi and Caowuqi to Aden, and asked the villagers who dug cordyceps along the way.

  The second rescue team, led by Tumi, started from Shuiluo township government, passed through Erze Gold Mine, Baishui River and Changbing, and reached the border of Daocheng.

  The third rescue team, led by Tashi Danzhu, set out from Baishui River, passed through Erze, and searched at the border between Erze Ranch and Daocheng.

  The Shuiluo Township Government also mobilized and organized village cadres and villagers who went up the mountain to dig Cordyceps, and used walkie-talkies to contact each other and launched a nationwide search and rescue. More than 100 people participated in the rescue. However, the mountains and forests along the Lok Line are dense, there are no roads, and there is no cell phone signal all the way, so the rescue is very difficult.

  At the same time, the criminal investigation, special patrol, traffic police and tourism bureau of Muli Public Security Bureau are also on standby at any time to prepare for emergency rescue. Enthusiastic netizens in Muli County also spontaneously organized themselves to provide relevant help for finding Jing Qianqian.

  Weak breathing, broken leg.

  On the evening of April 27th, Jing Qianqian’s brother-in-law, Mr. Wang, and other family members rushed to Shuiluo Township from Shandong to cooperate with the rescue work. Family members far away in Shandong are also anxiously waiting for the news ahead.

  By April 29th, it had been 9 days since Jing Qian lost contact, and the rescue work was still in progress. With the deepening of the three rescue teams, the search area is gradually expanding.

  At 7 o’clock on the morning of 29th, Huang Lijun, director of Shuiluo Police Station of Muli County Public Security Bureau, set out again with two policemen and Jing Qianqian’s family to search near Baishui River.

  At the scene, the police, family members and village cadres once again analyzed the map, and everyone discussed and prepared to search again in the nearby area where Jing Qianqian set off. Eight enthusiastic villagers joined the search and rescue team.

  At 8 o’clock in the morning, the search and rescue team entered the dense jungle. After walking for about 2 hours, I came to a river ditch and a backpack on the ground appeared in front of everyone. Next to the backpack, lay a woman in a green jacket. Everyone exclaimed together: Jing Qianqian!

  Huang Lijun came forward to check and found that JingQianQian still had a weak breath and pulse, and her lips were still trembling slightly. After preliminary examination, her leg was fractured, her face was pale and emaciated, and her condition was very poor.

  Huang Lijun said, find JingQianQian place, is a river ditch, it is not easy to be found, no one thought she would go there. When she was found, she still had some dry food in her backpack.

  Rescuers immediately cut down some trees and made a simple stretcher on the spot. Everyone carefully carried Jing Qianqian to the stretcher and moistened her lips with cotton swabs.

  Everyone took turns carrying stretchers and escorting Jing Qianqian down the hill. At the same time, the police informed two ambulances on standby in the township through the intercom.

  At about 12 noon, Jing Qianqian was sent to Shanxiatong Highway. The medical staff at the scene immediately infused her and measured her blood pressure, and her condition improved slightly.

  Subsequently, she was taken to an ambulance and taken to the hospital for emergency treatment. What is the specific situation? As of 1 o’clock this morning, there is no news of escape.

  remind

  Although the scenery is beautiful, it is not recommended for women to cross alone.

  The Lok Line is about 90 kilometers long, with the lowest elevation of 2,300 meters and the highest elevation of 4,800 meters. Among them, most of the lines are above 4000 meters above sea level. In addition to crossing dense forests, they also have to cross a number of barren mountain passes, and the mobile phone has no signal throughout.

  It is found that Jing Qianqian’s distress is about 2 hours away from Baishui River at the foot of the mountain, and Baishui River is less than 10 kilometers away from Shuiluo Gold Mine. This shows that Jing Qianqian didn’t walk for a long time after departure, and she may have an accident because of falling and other reasons. At the same time, it has deviated from the direction of Locke’s line here, which also shows that she may have lost her way. Fortunately, she was trapped in the wild, persisted for 9 days, and finally waited for help.

  Mr. Chen, a senior friend of Xichang who once crossed this route, said that the beautiful scenery on the Lok Line will attract a large number of outdoor enthusiasts from April to May and September to October every year. This route does not require high skills, and there is no need for rock climbing, but it belongs to moderate intensity hiking and has certain dangers. Travelers need to have more outdoor experience, good physical fitness and can’t have altitude sickness.

  It usually takes 4 to 5 days to cross the Lok Line. Basically, it is a group trip. Local villagers should be hired as guides in advance, and caravans should be hired to transport camping equipment and food. Because of the high altitude and no one, you may encounter unexpected situations at any time. At this time, if there is no help from others, it will be fatal. Therefore, it is not recommended for individuals, especially women, to cross alone.

  On April 15th, before the loss of contact, the Shuiluo Township Government issued the "Advice Letter for Travellers Entering Shuiluo Township".

  The "Advice Book" reminds tourists that because the scenic spots in Shuiluo Township have not been formally developed, the dense forests in the territory are easy to get lost, the natural conditions are particularly bad, and various safeguard measures are still lacking. Previously, there have been incidents in which tourists were killed in the mountains. I hope that tourists will cherish their lives. Although the beautiful scenery is ahead, don’t rush into undeveloped areas without adequate preparation.

Is it normal for the audience to watch the drama at double speed? Is the audience too busy or the drama too watery?

Story of Yanxi Palace, with 70 episodes, can be watched by the audience in only one and a half days through "multiple play".

For the popular drama "Ruyi’s Royal Love in the Palace", the video website provides a way to watch only one actor to save the audience time.

  Our reporter Xu Yuzhe

  "How tight is the time for contemporary young people? You have to drive twice as fast to watch a drama. " Recently, an ordinary netizen, a seemingly casual Weibo, has won thousands of praises and comments. Indeed, "double-speed broadcasting" has now become the norm for many young audiences to catch up with domestic dramas. The so-called "double-speed playback" is a newly added function of video websites in recent years. Users can use playback software to speed up or slow down the video playback rate, generally ranging from 0.5 times to 2.0 times. In the case of "double speed", you can finish 70 episodes of the popular drama "Story of Yanxi Palace" in one and a half days.

  According to the data of "China TV Drama Industry Report in 2018" published in April this year, in 2017, the total number of TV dramas was more than 465, and the average number of single episodes reached 39.8. Since 2011, 300 to 400 TV dramas have been broadcast every year. In the fragmentation time, it really takes a lot of time to watch so many dramas. In the social life of young people, "explosive" TV series is an important talk. In order to keep up with the rhythm of friends, many people will choose to play the brush drama at double speed during the break.

  For many viewers who don’t want to miss a frame, it is very important to choose the double-speed playback that suits them. The experience of Galen, the audience, is that the speed of 2 times is indeed a little fast, and the speed of 1.5 times is just right. "The plot can basically be clearly presented, and the speech speed of the actors’ lines is normal." After changing the double speed, it will also make the series have the entertainment effect of "ghost animals". On bilibili, a barrage video website where many young people gather, videos of "1.5 times speed play zone" and "playing with 2 times speed is better" are often provided.

  When it comes to double-speed playback, the attitude of many viewers is "doing it as a last resort." What annoys the audience is that some domestic dramas are often filled with a lot of flashbacks and useless dialogues in order to lengthen the number of episodes and make up the plot. "Remembrance killing" was originally a means to promote the progress of the plot, but half of an episode is remembering, and even the patient audience will choose to play it at double speed. In some love idol dramas, in order to show the emotional development of men and women, there will be a large number of slow-motion shots.

  The sloppy script creation of some domestic dramas is staggering. According to industry insiders, it usually takes about half a year to compare 12 episodes of American TV dramas, and 50 episodes and 60 collective scripts of some big IP dramas in China can be completed in 5 months. Under the influence of the idea of "quick script" and quick success, it is normal for the audience to quickly brush through the "brainless plot" by playing at double speed.

  On the other hand, domestic TV stations purchase TV dramas mostly by the number of episodes. For the sake of commercial interests, many TV dramas are seriously flooded. There is a long-standing "stubborn disease" that domestic dramas are prone to 60 or 70 episodes. There are basically more than 60 episodes of Chuqiao Biography, 76 episodes of Empresses in the Palace, and the fantasy of ancient costumes. Urban modern dramas also start with the lowest 40 episodes … … At this year’s annual meeting of Shanghai TV series production and broadcasting, Wang Leiqing, director of Dragon TV, spoke directly: "There are too many ‘ The dragon’s head is rotten and the snake’s waist is weak ’ It seems that a costume drama can’t be called a big drama without seventy or eighty episodes. Is there water injection in the middle? Everyone is very controversial about the long-episode TV series. The audience needs less than 50 episodes of dry dramas without water, and the market needs about 30 episodes of fast-paced innovative dramas! "

  Domestic dramas choose water injection, so the audience chooses "wringing out". Ironically, in addition to double-speed playback, video websites have also launched other "wringing" services. For example, "just watch TA": this function assembles the scenes of several leading actors in each episode into fragments, and users can choose to watch only the parts related to an actor, which is suitable for fans. Another example is "listening to the drama": this function makes the video audio, so that users can understand the content through sound when it is inconvenient to watch, which is suitable for commuting. There is also a "key plot reminder": this function displays the highlights of each episode in the form of key points in the progress bar, and users can see the general plot by placing the mouse on the key points, so as to decide whether to stay or jump.

  How to make more viewers stop playing at double speed is a test of the quality of film and television works. When double-speed broadcasting is becoming the choice of more and more viewers, the practitioners in the TV drama industry need to reflect deeply. In the view of critic Dai Xianren, only fine products can win the market and rich returns, and the TV drama industry can enter a virtuous circle of survival of the fittest. He also bluntly said that when the TV series really works slowly, the story is wonderful and the performance is exquisite, and the double-speed playback can’t convey the high-quality content well, the audience will play these excellent works at the original speed or even taste them repeatedly.

Japan has turned on the "faucet" and South Korea’s public opinion has changed: is Japan-South Korea relations facing an inflection point?

  On August 8, the Japanese government approved the export of one of the related materials for the first time 35 days after it started to strengthen the export control of three kinds of semiconductor materials exported to South Korea on July 4. After the review, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan decided that there was no risk of these goods being used for military equipment, so it only took one month to approve the application, which was earlier than the standard 90-day review period. In response, the South Korean government also postponed kicking Japan out of the list of white countries.

  In the past more than a month, the tense Japan-ROK relations have been escalating and fermenting. Japan has no intention of retreating step by step, but it has slowed down slightly at this time. In this regard, Li Jiacheng, an associate professor at the School of International Studies of Liaoning University, analyzed The Paper’s case, saying that Japan’s move is to prove its innocence, to show the international community that exports to South Korea are restrictive measures rather than embargoes, to seize the commanding heights of international public opinion, and to show South Korea its control over the trade flow and flow between Japan and South Korea. The collection and release of its export restrictions depends on South Korea’s policy toward Japan.

  Japan controls the "faucet switch"

  Japan’s Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry, Shigeng Hongcheng, announced on the 8th that he approved the export of one of the related materials, but also warned South Korea that if three high-tech materials are found to be improperly used, we will take comprehensive measures to prevent such situations from happening again, including expanding the application review. The Central Daily News quoted foreign media as saying that Japan issued a warning after it announced its exports, which showed that Japan was unwilling to unilaterally stop exporting to South Korea while increasing its bets in this diplomacy.

  The Japan Broadcasting Association (NHK) reported that various media in South Korea made a lot of reports on the front page of the 9th that the Japanese government allowed some enterprises to export to South Korea for the first time. NHK said that South Korean media accused Japan of adopting "faucet tactics" to deal with South Korea, and also pointed out that Japan was "adjusting export control according to international public opinion and anti-Japanese public opinion in South Korea".

  According to the Central Daily News, industry and experts analyzed that Japan approved the export of related materials for two reasons. The first is to consider the actual interests of Japanese companies to make choices. The report quoted people in the semiconductor industry as saying, "Japanese companies have also appealed to their own governments that it is not easy to export except to Korean companies, and the Japanese government has begun to realize the seriousness of the situation." On the other hand, Japan’s strategy is like turning on and off a tap at will, and it decides to relax or tighten export restrictions according to international public opinion and domestic reaction in South Korea.

  Li Jiacheng believes that the anti-Japanese public opinion in South Korea is getting worse and worse, and Japan does not want to make Japan-South Korea relations out of control and irreparable. The approval of the export of some materials this time is a measure to ease the pressure; Moreover, if Korean companies find alternatives, the effect of Japan’s restrictions on Korea will not be as obvious as previously expected.

  "East Asia Daily" said that on the one hand, Japan emphasized that export control measures to South Korea were not embargo measures, on the other hand, it hinted that it would strengthen export control according to the situation, which showed Japan’s "two-faced tactics" against South Korea and "showed Japan’s containment and manipulation of the rope of Japan-South Korea relations."

  While the South Korean media reported extensively on the dispute between Japan and South Korea and accused the Japanese side, the Japanese media did not show weakness. Japan’s Sankei Shimbun reported on the 9th that authoritative research institutions in the United States pointed out that the responsibility for the confrontation between Moon Jae in and South Korea lies with the Japanese government.

  According to the report, the Heritage Foundation, a famous American research institution, held a discussion on the "Japan-South Korea trade dispute" in Washington on the 7th. Snyder, director of the US-South Korea policy plan of the American think tank Foreign Relations Association (CFR), believes that Moon Jae in, as the president of South Korea, should balance domestic politics and foreign policy, but he put the issue of comfort women at the forefront of Japan-South Korea relations, so as to consolidate his political position in South Korea, which leads to a dilemma now; Moon Jae in’s inaction on the issue of labor expropriation is also a reason for the opposition between Japan and South Korea.

  South Korea suspended the "white list" agenda and launched the anti-Japanese "Depth Charge"

  The South Korean side made an intriguing response to the "faucet switch" that Japan unscrewed on the 8th. On the one hand, South Korea postponed the agenda of kicking Japan out of the white list of South Korean exports. On the other hand, Moon Jae in reshuffled its cabinet on the 9th, bringing in authoritative experts in the semiconductor field and well-known hardliners against Japan.

  According to a report by the Central Daily News on the 9th, the South Korean government originally planned to propose the Amendment to the Announcement on Import and Export of Strategic Materials, which removed Japan from the list of white countries, on August 8th, but the government held a ministerial meeting on Japan’s export regulation correspondence on the same day. The Ministry of Industry, Trade and Resources of the Republic of Korea stated that "as a result of discussing the export system of strategic materials, it was decided to determine the specific content and promotion schedule in the future", which was interpreted as the adjustment made by the ROK to the Japanese reaction.

  While temporarily kicking Japan out of the white list, South Korea also decided to greatly strengthen the detection of radioactive energy and heavy metals in the import of daily coal ash. This can be seen as South Korea refraining from expanding its economic war with Japan on the one hand, and taking out "restricted chips" on Japanese imports on the other.

  Li Jiacheng believes that this is because South Korea wants to cool down and deal with trade disputes, and fight a trade war with Japan, the third largest economy, but South Korea still lacks confidence. "In short, can’t afford to play. I had to fight before, but now there is an exit, so I will cool it down, "Li Jiacheng said.

  On the 9th, Moon Jae in nominated 10 South Korean ministerial officials and reshuffled the cabinet. According to Yonhap News Agency, Moon Jae in nominated Cao Guo, former chief secretary of Cheongwadae’s civil affairs, as the Minister of Justice, Cui Qirong, a professor of electronic information engineering at Seoul National University, as the Minister of Science, Technology, Information and Communication, and Li Xiuhe, a member of the Common Democratic Party, as the South Korean ambassador to the United States.

  Moon Jae in also nominated Minister of Agriculture, Forestry, Animal Husbandry and Food, Chairman of the Fair Trade Commission and Chairman of the Finance Committee. This is the second time that the Moon Jae in government reshuffled its cabinet after replacing the heads of seven departments, including the Small and Medium-sized Venture Enterprise Department, on March 8.

  Although Moon Jae in’s move is for next year’s parliamentary elections, it cannot be considered that it has nothing to do with the current friction between Japan and South Korea.

  SankeiBiz, an economic information website under the Japanese Sankei Shimbun, pointed out that Moon Jae in once commented that Cui Qirong has "worldwide authority in the semiconductor field, and he has made great contributions to promoting Korean semiconductor memory to become the first in the world". Moon Jae in’s promotion of Cui Qirong may be regarded as one of the countermeasures to strengthen Japanese export control to South Korea. Li Xiuhe, the new ambassador to the United States, was the chief representative of the six-party talks on the Korean nuclear issue.

  Among these ten people, it is particularly noteworthy that the new Minister of Justice Cao Guo. Moon Jae in’s nomination of Cao Guo, a confidant and former chief secretary of Cheongwadae civil affairs, as the Minister of Justice is regarded as the biggest highlight of this cabinet reshuffle, which Yonhap News Agency said shows Moon Jae in’s determination to speed up the reform of procuratorial organs.

  The Asahi Shimbun pointed out that Cao Guo was famous as "Depth Charge who criticized Japan". After Japan took measures to strengthen export control against South Korea, Cao Guo wrote in Japanese in his personal social media face book "insulting South Korea’s sovereignty and damaging free trade". Regarding the issue of labor expropriation in World War II, he posted on social media that "those who deny, accuse and distort the facts should be called pro-Japanese (meaning traitors in Korean context)".

  Under the dilemma, there are different opinions in Korean political circles and public opinion has changed.

  A commentary in the South China Morning Post on the 7th pointed out that the Moon Jae in administration’s active efforts to improve relations with North Korea have weakened the US-South Korea alliance. North Korea’s recent missile tests have made Moon Jae in’s idea of developing a "peaceful economy" with North Korea to deal with the dispute between Japan and South Korea hopeless. The U.S. Defense Secretary’s proposal to deploy medium-range missiles in Asia may further put South Korea in a security dilemma. There are also differences in South Korean political circles on how to break through the predicament. Conservatives advocate easing Japan to restore the trilateral relations between the United States, Japan and South Korea on the basis of the United States, South Korea and the United States-Japan alliance, while progressives emphasize the need to win the "battle" with Japan.

  At a time when political circles have not yet reached a consensus, Korean public opinion seems to have undergone subtle changes. Japan’s "West Japan News" reported this detail change. For example, there are more and more calls for "anti-Abe instead of anti-Japan" in Korean media or social media. Banners such as "NO Boycott Japan" that appeared in a large number on the streets of Japan have attracted many criticisms in South Korea, saying that "Japanese tourists are not enemies" and demanding that banners be removed to calmly handle Japan-ROK relations.

  The Korean media also presented the idea that "government communication should be distinguished from civil opposition". The Korean National Daily introduced the voice of a representative of a Korean citizen group, who said that "conscientious Japanese citizens who oppose Abe’s regime should unite to play a role in Japan". Another male employee in Seoul said, "After stopping business exchanges with South Korea, I saw the disappointment of the local government in Japan with the Japanese government." He said that political and non-governmental exchanges should be separated.

  According to NHK, the results of a survey of 1,000 people conducted by the Korean poll "Gallup Korea" show that as of August 8, 54% of the people in South Korea answered "doing well" and 35% answered "doing wrong". In response to the question "Which side is more affected by Japanese and Korean enterprises", 57% answered "Korean enterprises" and 22% answered "Japanese enterprises".

  A commentary in the Central Daily News on August 5 pointed out that Korean nationals will naturally be angry with Japan’s actions. The government should also respect the feelings of the people, but if it deliberately incites anti-Japanese sentiment or acts in an extreme way, it will not benefit the country. The more this time, the more calm we must be. Korea and Japan are "close neighbors" who can’t live without each other. Even if conflicts occasionally break out, the government must formulate corresponding countermeasures for the long-term plan.

  At the end of this month, it is expected that Japan will take the second round of measures to strengthen export management to South Korea, and Japanese raw material enterprises are also accelerating to take countermeasures. For example, Morita Chemical Industry will start the production of hydrogen fluoride in China in 2019. 

  Li Jiacheng concluded with The Paper that he hoped Japan and South Korea would exercise restraint and handle it calmly. At present, the economic situation of South Korea and Japan is not optimistic, and the international economic environment in which the two countries are located is not good. On the one hand, they are affected by Sino-US trade frictions, and on the other hand, their domestic economic policies also have their own shortcomings. Weak growth and economic slowdown have become the norm. If the trade disputes between the two countries worsen, it will be even worse.

Break 100 million The aesthetic love in Water Story inspires the audience’s emotional resonance.

1905 movie network news On March 26th, the fantasy love movie, which is being shown all over the country, has exceeded 100 million at the box office in China cinema. Since its release, the film has broken the box office records of many Oscar-winning films, among which the first-day box office was ranked second in the box office list of China District with 21.74 million yuan, and the first-weekend box office of Oscar-winning films in recent years was the highest with 67.5 million yuan. Since its release in North America, the film has been a hit at the box office. At present, the box office in North America has exceeded $62 million, which is the highest-grossing Oscar-winning film in North America in the past five years. At present, the global box office of the film has exceeded $170 million. In March, when many adventure action elements are killing each other, Water Story, as the only movie with the theme of love, is like a clean stream of warmth in the hearts of the audience, and it has also become the best choice for lovers to date.

As the winner of four awards, such as best film and best director, "Tale of Water Shapes" has not only enjoyed a strong box office since its release in China, but its word-of-mouth has also continued to ferment, which has been highly praised by many authoritative media, well-known directors and senior film critics in China. In addition, David and his wife, Zhou Dongyu, Jiang Shuying, Jolin Tsai, Ariel Lin, Emily, Charlie, YIN FANG and many other artists CALL for the film one after another, and the love wave formed by Water Story quickly spread in the circle of friends, Weibo and other social software.

"Tale of Water" can get a bumper harvest in three aspects: word of mouth, box office and Oscar. The most important reason is the romantic story created by director guillermo del toro in a fairy-tale way. The love between Sargam’s Eliza and the mermaid broke the audience’s inertia thinking, but across races, it restored love to its purest taste. Beautiful pictures, beautiful music and superb performances of actors are the elements that sublimate the beauty of love again. On the screen, Eliza and the mermaid embraced and guarded each other from the first contact to the last, and the experience left a deep impression on the audience. For example, Eliza and the mermaid are clasped with their fingers across the container, and there is a picture of Eliza depicting raindrops on the window. The yearning for lovers and longing for love instantly aroused many audiences’ emotional resonance. When the picture of two people communicating with picture books and making love with eggs appeared, many viewers also expressed their envy of this simple but sweeter love routine. When the mermaid finally jumped into the water with Eliza in her arms, many viewers, especially female viewers, were moved to tears at this moment.

Eliza on the screen has no lines, but she accurately presents a girl’s process from first love to passionate love with body language and micro-expression, which is inseparable from sally hawkins’s profound understanding and vivid interpretation of the role. For Eliza’s performance, director Toro once said that this is a film and role specially made for her (sally hawkins), and her temperament is unique. In addition to Eliza, Mermaid has also captivated many audiences. doug jones, his actor, paid more hardships and sacrifices for this. He spent three hours in makeup every time, staring blankly at the fish in his spare time, and finally he was "ashamed" to meet the audience. The whole set of equipment on the mermaid consumed the director Toro’s huge time and effort, and finally showed the audience this wild and elegant mermaid image on the screen.

Full of care and support is also a warm heart of Water Story. In the film, the story of Eliza, Zeldia, a black colleague, and Charles, a gay painter, holding a group to keep warm reflects Toro’s concern for marginalized people. Richard jenkins, the actor of the painter Charles, once summed up his role struggle with Zeldia with such a sentence: "In the United States in the 1960s, if you were an upright white man, it would be a great era". Three characters who were discriminated against by the secular world, Sargam Eliza, black Zeldia and gay Charles, supported their friendship with a rescue activity, and the thrills brought the audience a journey of spiritual transformation. In the film, although Charles did a lot of preparation and psychological construction to cover up his anxiety, the images exposed by nervousness when he drove past the checkpoint also made the audience worry about Eliza. When Eliza and Mermaid flooded the cinema because of playing with water, when Charles stopped the cinema manager to apologize, many viewers also praised him for his kindness. In the whole rescue process, it was Zeldia who gave the greatest support to Eliza, including her behavior of "punching in a seat" for Eliza every day at the beginning of the film, which reflected this powerful girlfriend power. Zeldia’s calmness in her actions has become Eliza’s strongest psychological backing. When the villain Richard bullied Zeldia into telling the whereabouts of the mermaid, her firm attitude and loud reprimand to her husband made the audience feel better.

As a fantasy romantic film, Water Story enhances the charm of love through poetic scenes and beautiful music. The scenes and props in the film are extremely exquisite and retro, ranging from streets and alleys, government agencies, Alisa’s rooms and cinemas to scientific research equipment, household items and clothing and shoes, which deeply restore the characteristics of the 1960s. At the same time, the film music composer Alexander Dupla adopted a lot of music from the 1930s and 1940s. With the change of the lens, the music also flowed, like a clear stream to take the audience in and out of the film. This retro picture is in line with aesthetic music, which also makes the film win the best artistic direction and the best original score in the 90th Oscar, and the audience is like being in a dreamlike journey through.

  Lightning journalist Wang Xun Taian reports.

Wild animals "enter the city" from time to time, and experts talk about how to live in harmony.

This article was transferred from Xinhua News Agency;
Xinhua News Agency, Shanghai, June 5, news, a group of Asian elephants entered Kunming all the way north, the northeast tiger Wandashan No.1 broke into the village, and raccoons appeared in more than 100 communities in Shanghai … Recently, wild animals have entered human habitats from time to time in many places. What should we do about this? The reporter visited the team of Professor Wang Fang from the School of Life Sciences of Fudan University to explore the management of urban wildlife, and looked for the answer together.
There are many "animal residents" in the city.
In Shanghai, a survey about "animal residents" is going on. There are 12 investigation areas and 300 infrared cameras specially designed for wild animals. With the support of Shanghai Forestry Bureau and other relevant departments, Wang Fang’s team hopes to get a demonstration plan for urban wildlife management through one or two years of follow-up.
"The wildlife in the city is not just as simple as protecting it." Wang Fang’s research found that the number of some wild species in cities increased rapidly and their distribution range was also expanding. Take raccoons as an example. In 2015, raccoons were found in more than 40 communities in Shanghai. By 2020, the number of raccoons in Shanghai will reach more than 150, an increase of more than 2 times.

With the increase of "animal residents", the contact and conflict between people and animals have increased accordingly. Research shows that when there are less than two raccoons per hectare, people will hardly feel the existence of raccoons, but when the number exceeds five, it will affect people’s lives. According to the statistics of the team, in 2020, there were about 1,000 complaints about wild animals disturbing people in Shanghai, some of whom were troubled by the excrement and noise of raccoons, while others were frightened by raccoons. In addition to raccoons, citizens are also uneasy about the existence of bats. In 2021, there were complaints about the destruction of gardens by red-bellied squirrels.
At the same time, the habits of raccoons have also changed quietly: from living alone to group activities, from staying up all day and going out all night, from being afraid of people to approaching people actively. "The biggest change is their attitude towards people and the human world." Wang Fang said, "In the past, people ran immediately when they saw them three or four meters away, but if there were behaviors such as active feeding, they would take the initiative to chase people for food, which might disturb the elderly and children."

The change of raccoons in Shanghai is basically consistent with the change trend of wild animals in other cities around the world. For example, Wang Fang said: "For example, the red fox in Europe, the American black bear and raccoon all show the characteristics of rapid urbanization. The changing direction of raccoons is what we can expect, but the speed of change surprises us."
Why do they "leave home for the city"?
Why do wild animals leave their original living environment and enter cities? Wang Fang believes that there are mainly several aspects:
First of all, migration is the instinctive demand of wild animals. No one can confine wild animals to protected areas. The purposes of animal migration include but are not limited to food, water, spouses, avoiding natural enemies and finding better habitats.
"However, it is easy to overlook that when the habitat becomes broken, many animals lose the opportunity and ability to migrate, and it often takes decades to explore and rebuild again. Many species, including Asian elephants, are going through this process. They will try and make mistakes, conflict, and run to places that seem’ should not go’, but these processes are in line with the laws of nature. " Wang Fang said.
Secondly, compared with the wilderness and the urban-rural junction, the urban environment recovers faster. By the end of 2020, the green coverage rate of Shanghai’s built-up areas is as high as 40%. There are not only large areas of forests and wetlands, but also small and beautiful ecological areas such as street gardens and pocket parks. At this time, the city will be like a hot spot, attracting the surrounding animals.
Finally, the urban environment provides shelter for some wild animals. Raccoons, squirrels, weasels and other animals have very flexible lifestyles. They are good at adjusting according to the characteristics of cities. There are no natural enemies in cities. As long as they can adapt to urban life and human beings, they will hardly encounter threats.

How to coexist in the collision?
When wild animals enter the city, urban residents need to go through a learning process. From curiosity at the beginning, to dissatisfaction, and then to getting used to it, a new order will be formed between urban residents and wild animals.
Wang Fang believes that the establishment of order is inseparable from the understanding of wild animals and the study of urban management. In the past year, Wang Fang’s team conducted extensive research in Shanghai, and basically grasped the changes of raccoons in the city. In addition to determining the threshold number per hectare, they also established a habitat model to further analyze the mechanism driving the changes of wild animals.
"We found that raccoons don’t need large areas of forests and green spaces, and the two main factors affecting their distribution are shrubs and water sources. They also like small and medium-sized roads. During the day, cars come and go on the roads, and at night they become’ high-speed passages’ for animals. " Zhao Qianqian is a member of Wang Fang’s team. She put collars with positioning functions on five raccoons.
Volunteers discuss the urban wildlife survey together. (provided by Wang Fang)
The diversity of urban wildlife needs to be protected without hindering the normal operation of society. Up to now, local governments and citizens have maintained a great degree of tolerance for wild animals "entering the city", which not only helped the Northeast Tiger who broke into the village to return to Shan Ye, but also suffered economic losses of millions of yuan caused by elephant "sightseeing".
However, it does not rule out taking appropriate intervention measures when necessary. According to Wang Fang, in July, 2020, dozens of raccoons in a community in Shanghai had a group behavior disorder, which caused great interference. Therefore, the first wildlife hunting license was opened in Shanghai, which captured raccoons in the community and safely transferred them to the wild environment.
Wang Fang also said that the best way to solve the problem of wild animals "entering the city" is to protect and restore the living environment of wild animals, preserve the buffer zone of the city, and minimize the direct conflict between wild animals and urban residents.
"Cities are first and foremost places where people live and work. There will never be an optimal plan for urban wildlife management, and conflicts will always exist. No matter how good the system is, it needs continuous adjustment. In this regard, cities such as Shanghai have made a lot of explorations and the experience is extremely precious. " Wang Fang said.
