  PART1.  Retiree pension

  Adjusted pension for enterprise retirees

  Issued in place on June 15th.

  According to national requirements, since January 1, 2021, the city has continued to adjust the basic pension for retirees of enterprises, institutions and institutions (including those who have retired and retired). This is the 29th time that the city has increased the pension for enterprise retirees, and it is also the sixth time since 2016 that the pensions for retirees of enterprises, institutions and institutions have been adjusted simultaneously.

  This year’s adjustment will continue to be carried out in accordance with the combination of quota adjustment, linked adjustment and appropriate inclination, and continue to maintain the adjustment method of increasing inclination to retirees with early retirement time, continuous service and long payment period, so that they can enjoy the fruits of social development more.

  This adjustment is aimed at retirees who have gone through retirement formalities before December 31, 2020 (inclusive). It is estimated that 3.1 million retirees from enterprises, institutions and institutions will be benefited, and pensions will be reissued from January this year, among which enterprise retirees will receive reissued pensions on June 15.

  The specific adjustment measures are as follows

  ↓ ↓ ↓

  1. Adjust the basic pension by quota.

  For each retiree, 50 yuan will be increased each month.  

  2. Adjust the basic pension by linking.

  (a) linked to the payment period

  In 2021, we will continue to implement the method of generally increasing the basic pension linked to the payment period. Among them, for retirees who have paid for 10 years or more, the 3 yuan will be increased every month for every 1 year; For the remaining months less than the whole year, the monthly increase is 0.25 yuan. If the payment period is less than 10 years (excluding retirees who transfer from land acquisition to work), the 30 yuan will be increased per person per month; Retirees whose payment period is less than 15 years will receive an increase of 45 yuan per person per month.

  (2) Linked to the pension level.

  According to the monthly basic pension level of retirees before the end of 2020, the per capita disposable income level of residents in this city in 2020 (5786 yuan) is used as the baseline to divide into two grades, and each person with more than 5786 yuan will increase 20 yuan per month, and each person with less than 5786 yuan will increase 55 yuan per month. By adopting a high-profile approach for the low-paid and a low-profile approach for the high-paid, it is guaranteed that those with low treatment levels can appropriately increase their basic pensions.

  At the same time, in order to give consideration to fairness, for a small number of retirees whose pension level is less than 5,841 yuan after adjustment, the difference will be made up (only for retirees whose pension level is more than 5,786 yuan before adjustment).

  3. Appropriate tilt to senior retirees.

  For retirees who retire early and are older, in order to further improve their basic living standards, since 2007, the city has been moderately inclined to senior retirees when adjusting the basic pension for enterprise retirees. In 2021, we will continue to adhere to this practice, and for senior retirees who have reached the age of 65 or above before December 31, 2020, after adjusting according to the above measures, we will once again enjoy the four-level preferential policy from 40 yuan to 70 yuan. That is, retirees aged 65 to 69 will increase their 40 yuan every month; 70 to 74 years old, each person will increase 50 yuan every month; Each person aged 75 to 79 will add 60 yuan every month; 70 yuan will be increased every month for each person over 80 years old.

  On this basis, for retirees over 65 who have paid for 30 years, the 5 yuan will be increased every month, so as to reflect the further preference for retirees with early retirement time, continuous service and long payment period.

  4. Two special adjustment methods

  First, continue to adjust the retirement benefits of old workers who participated in revolutionary work before the founding of the people’s Republic of China.At present, the old workers who participated in the revolutionary work before the founding of enterprises in this city are generally over 80 years old, and the state stipulates that they can enjoy 100% retirement benefits. This adjustment will still be made according to the previous year’s method, that is, those who participated in the revolutionary work from July 7, 1937 to September 2, 1945 will receive an increase of 355 yuan per person per month; Those who took part in revolutionary work from September 3, 1945 to September 30, 1949 received an increase of 325 yuan per person per month. On the basis of the adjustment of the above two standards, they also enjoy the preferential policy for senior retirees, and the total adjustment will generally increase by 395 to 425 yuan/month.

  The second is to ensure that the retired military cadres and former industrial and commercial workers are not lower than the average level of pensions in the city after adjustment.After the basic pension is increased according to the quota, linked to the payment period and linked to the pension level, if the basic pension of enterprise retired demobilized cadres and former industrial and commercial workers is lower than the adjusted average pension level of enterprise retirees in the city, it will be replenished to the average level. At the same time, senior retirees who have reached the age of 65 or above before December 31, 2020 (inclusive) also enjoy the preferential policy for senior retirees.

  Personnel who retire before December 31, 2020 (inclusive) of the municipal organs and institutions will also be adjusted according to the above-mentioned methods and adjustment standards of combining quota adjustment, hook adjustment and appropriate tilt, and will be paid in place before the end of June.

  PART2. Basic pension and welfare pension

  Basic pension and welfare pension benefits

  Increase 30 yuan per person per month.

  In order to further protect and improve people’s livelihood and gradually improve the level of old-age security for urban and rural residents, combined with the economic development of this city, this city will adjust the basic pension of basic old-age insurance for urban and rural residents and the standard of old-age security welfare pension from January 1, 2021.

  For those who have received the basic old-age insurance for urban and rural residents and enjoyed the old-age security welfare pension before December 31, 2020, the 30 yuan will be increased per person per month since January 1, 2021. 

  From January 1, 2021, new people will receive basic old-age insurance benefits for urban and rural residents. The basic pension standard is 850 yuan per person per month; The old-age security welfare pension standard is 765 yuan per person per month. 

  Up to now, the city has adjusted the standard of old-age security for urban and rural residents 13 times in 11 consecutive years. In 2021, the average number of people enjoying basic pensions in the city was 588,100, and the average number of people enjoying welfare pensions was 337,800. This policy benefited 925,900 people.

  PART3. industrial injury insurance treatment

  Continue to adjust the disability allowance for work-related injuries

  And pension benefits for dependent relatives.

  According to the Regulations of the State Council on Work-related Injury Insurance and relevant regulations, since 2001, the regular treatment of work-related injury insurance for work-related injuries and dependents of workers and deceased persons has been adjusted year by year. In 2021, the city will continue to adjust the regular treatment of industrial injury insurance, as follows:

  Adjust the scopeThe scope of this adjustment is the injured workers (excluding retirees receiving basic pensions) who enjoy disability allowance before December 31, 2020 (inclusive), and the dependent relatives of workers and deceased people who enjoy the pension for dependent relatives.

  Adjust the disability allowance for people with work-related injuries from Grade I to Grade IV.According to the level of disability, the monthly increase for each person is: first-degree disability 440 yuan, second-degree disability 405 yuan, third-degree disability 370 yuan, and fourth-degree disability 335 yuan.

  Adjust the pension for dependent relatives.The adjustment of the pension for dependent relatives of workers and deceased persons will increase 200 yuan per person per month.

  Adjust the disability allowance for level 5 and level 6 work-related injuries. The employing unit shall increase the disability allowance for the five or six injured workers who have not arranged for work, and the increase per person per month shall not be lower than that in 220 yuan.

  The adjustment of disability allowance for work-related injuries and pension for dependent relatives of work-related deaths will be implemented as of January 1, 2021.

  Because the base of life nursing fee has not been announced yet, it will be released separately after it is announced.

  PART4. minimum wage

  The minimum wage is raised to 2320 yuan per month.

  According to the "Beijing Minimum Wage Regulations", in order to ensure the basic livelihood of workers, the city has adjusted the monthly minimum wage since August 1, 2021.

  Among them, the monthly minimum wage was adjusted from 2,200 yuan to 2,320 yuan, increasing the 120 yuan. The hourly minimum wage for part-time employees is 25.3 yuan/hour, and the hourly minimum wage for part-time employees on statutory holidays is 59 yuan/hour.

  PART5. unemployment insurance benefits

  Unemployment insurance is raised by 218 yuan per file.

  In order to improve the income level of the unemployed and ensure their basic livelihood, according to the economic and social development of this city, since August 1, 2021, the unemployment insurance standard has been raised by 218 yuan per file on the current basis.

  Among them, if the accumulated payment time is over 1 year and less than 5 years, the monthly payment standard of unemployment insurance is 2034 yuan; If the accumulated payment time is over 5 years and less than 10 years, the monthly payment standard of unemployment insurance is 2061 yuan; If the accumulated payment time is over 10 years and less than 15 years, the monthly payment standard of unemployment insurance is 2088 yuan; If the accumulated payment time is over 15 years and less than 20 years, the monthly payment standard of unemployment insurance is 2115 yuan; If the accumulated payment time is over 20 years, the monthly payment standard of unemployment insurance is 2143 yuan. From the 13th month, the monthly payment standard of unemployment insurance will be 2034 yuan.

  In the future, the average standard of unemployment insurance in this city will be adjusted synchronously according to 90% of the minimum wage.

Efficient and green development of coal-fired power makes "talking about coal" no longer "change color"

  CCTV News:Coal-fired power generation will remain the main part of China’s power supply structure for a long time. Data show that in 2018, China’s installed power capacity reached 1.9 billion kilowatts, of which coal-fired power capacity reached 1.01 billion kilowatts, accounting for 53%; The power generation is 4.45 trillion kWh, accounting for 64%.

  With the challenges of carbon emission, environment and power generation cost becoming more and more severe, it is urgent for coal-fired power enterprises to find a feasible way to transform.

  A few days ago, "Growing with the Republic — — The interview group of "New Media Entering New State-owned Enterprises" went to Taizhou Power Generation Co., Ltd., the national energy group, to see how this "garden power plant" did a good job in efficient and clean utilization of coal.

  Built the world’s first million kilowatt ultra-supercritical secondary reheating project.

  In the workshop of Taizhou Power Generation Co., Ltd., reporters saw two million kilowatt ultra-supercritical secondary reheat coal-fired units. One of them is the world’s first million kilowatt ultra-supercritical secondary reheat coal-fired generator set. The performance test shows that its power supply coal consumption is 265g/kWh, and its power generation efficiency reaches 47.82%, which is the best in the world.

  "This equipment was jointly developed by Shanghai Electric and China Electric Power Consulting Group under the leadership of National Energy Group, which is 2 percentage points higher than the conventional primary reheating efficiency. "Chen Xuwei, general manager and deputy secretary of the Party Committee of Taizhou Power Generation Co., Ltd., National Energy Group, said. He further explained that an increase of 2 percentage points means that the coal used for generating primary electricity is 2 percentage points less. For example, the average coal consumption in our country is 300 grams per kilowatt-hour, and 2 percentage points means that 6 grams of standard coal is saved per kilowatt-hour. The higher the coal price, the better the economy of secondary reheating.

  It is understood that the secondary reheating technology is promoted and implemented under the background of comprehensively improving the efficiency of energy conversion and utilization, implementing the strategy of energy conservation and emission reduction, reducing the total coal consumption and optimizing the coal consumption structure in order to cope with greenhouse gas emissions and alleviate environmental pressure in China, aiming at building a more efficient new generation of thermal power generating units.

  At that time, there was no precedent for a million kilowatt secondary reheat unit in the world. "Face ‘ There is no overall scheme design, boiler, steam turbine and other major equipment, and no control system ’ ‘ Three noes ’ Problems and major challenges, we organize relevant units to address ‘ The key technology of million kilowatt secondary reheating ’ Joint research was carried out, and 15 major and technical schemes, such as overall technical scheme, boiler scheme, steam turbine scheme, spring base scheme, secondary reheat DCS control strategy, temperature regulation mode and bypass control technology, steam turbine shafting stability and start-up mode, were repeatedly demonstrated and reviewed to ensure that key technologies are advanced and reliable. " Chen Xuwei said.

  After the two units were put into production, the third-party test showed that the coal consumption of power generation was nearly 6 g/kWh lower than the best level in the world today, and 14 g/kWh lower than the average level of domestic conventional one-time reheat units, and the power generation efficiency was 47.82% and 47.95% respectively. " In three research reports released in 2015-2016, the International Energy Agency commented that the secondary reheat unit of Taizhou Power Plant is currently the most efficient coal-fired unit in the world.

  "According to our statistics, in recent years, 65% of the units in the whole East China and South China have adopted the secondary reheat technology in the projects under construction or design." Zhang Shishan, Party Secretary and Deputy General Manager of Jiangsu Electric Power Co., Ltd., National Energy Group, said.

  Up to now, there are 21 secondary reheat units under construction or put into use in China. "We are more optimistic about ‘ Belt and Road ’ If you can go out, the prospect of this technology will be broader. " Chen Xuwei said.

  Take the lead in exploring ultra-low emission path

  The secondary reheat unit has not only made remarkable achievements in improving efficiency, but also reduced the emission of atmospheric pollutants by 5 percentage points compared with the conventional one million units every year, and achieved ultra-low emission of soot, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides.

  Standing at the height of the factory, you can see the white gas rising from two giant chimneys and gradually melting into the sky. "Out of the chimney, water vapor accounts for the majority. If we raise its temperature, we can’t actually see anything. The control of pollutant discharge is mainly in three aspects: sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and soot. Our sulfur dioxide emission level is about 10 mg/m, and the national standard is 35 mg/m, and we are fully capable of reducing this level to a lower level; Nitrogen oxides, the national standard is 50 mg/m, and our average annual emission level is about 38-39 mg/m; Smoke and dust, the national standard is 10 mg/m, and our current average operating level is 2 mg/m, far superior to the national ultra-low emission level. " Chen Xuwei introduced.

  It is reported that as early as 2012, at the beginning of the design of the secondary reheat unit, Taizhou Power Generation Co., Ltd. took the lead in proposing the ultra-low emission technical route of "six power plants+single tower double cycle+wet electrostatic precipitation", which was the first project in China to meet the gas emission standard.

  Construct a full coverage governance system for unorganized discharge, air control, wastewater control and noise control; The coal yard is closed and reformed in the form of dry coal shed and windbreak and dust suppression net; Take the lead in building wharf shore power system to realize "zero emission" of generator air pollutants during the ship berthing … …

  Taizhou company has always taken green environmental protection as the premise of its work and actively explored the road of green development.

  100% comprehensive utilization of solid wastes

  In addition, Taizhou Power Generation Co., Ltd. insists on turning waste into treasure, actively expands the sales channels of fly ash, slag and gypsum, and actively implements the deep processing of fly ash. The products such as fly ash, slag and gypsum sold are widely used in roads, high-speed rail, bridges and municipal construction, etc., to achieve 100% comprehensive utilization of solid waste.

  According to Chen Xuwei, in recent years, the sales profit of heating and solid waste of Taizhou Power Generation Co., Ltd. accounted for more than 20% of the total profit of the enterprise. In 2018, the sales of ash is 87 million, gypsum is franchised by another company, and the price of first-class ash has reached 230 yuan/ton.

Dialogue | Is there a word of mouth and no heat? Ren Suxi’s response to "Looking for Han Ji" was cold.


Special feature of 1905 film network Since the film was released, the market performance has not become a dark horse as expected, but the score of Douban 7.1 (currently reduced to 6.9 points) has made it the second most popular film in the current schedule.


The movie "Looking for Han Ji" started almost after the movie was finished. The two works are also pregnant women. Those who have unique opinions on the characters said that they did not realize this similarity. "I generally don’t compare these things."


When asked why she took the role, she always answered, "The role is good". This role is so good that it is rare for her not to write a biography for it. "Because it has a novel foundation, I don’t have to write a biography. The novels are all there. What else can I write?"


Word of mouth, no heat, seems to have become the regular market performance of Ren Suxi’s starring works. She smiled and admitted that she is not an actor who is good at balancing performance creation and variety exposure. At present, she is more willing to spend her time on creation.Ren Suxi has gone from "fewer but better" in the past to more than five films to be shown in the future, among which the starring actor will meet the audience on May 20th.


"It sounds like a bumper harvest." She did not forget to tease herself.From Zhang Yiman to Mo Mo, Ren Suxi is unlikely to make mistakes in performance. However, in this interview, she revealed that she is currently shooting a TV series, which is different from the way of shooting stage plays and movies. The shooting of this TV series has made her realize some performance bottlenecks, "I won’t play it again". Even so, I don’t forget to say again that if I can meet a role that stimulates her, I will still want to try it.


She didn’t forget to recommend movies to us in the future.Wasteland, "that few people dare to play, I this face spots are basked in, the whole face is broken, and then really face to.StoneboogRiza, that’s really deep. I found that acting with nature is completely different from acting with people, and the life experience you get is different. "


The following is the conversation:


1905 Movie Network: What was the coolest experience after starring in "Looking for Han"?

Ren Suxi: The coolest experience is that the role of "Looking for Han Ji" has some chats and some.The reason is that she is far away from me, and this role is still far away from me. Before I played those roles, to be honest, it was all a big face of my personality. The point where I coincided with the role was large, but this one was very small.



Because I’m not usually a flattering personality, but Wang Zhao is, and that’s provided by the script. Then I have to find out if there is such a moment in my body, or if there is a new life experience. After I pull it out, I find it very small, or very few.So what do I need to do? I need to conquer it, then zoom in and put away the big face of my original main character. Then magnifying this process is my highlight. I have changed from a person who is not like this to a person who looks like this. There is still a sense of accomplishment.


1905 movie network:You used to talk about writing biographies for your characters. Will you write biographies again this time?

Ren Suxi: Because it has a novel basis, I don’t have to write a biography. The novels are all there. What else can I write a biography?


1905 movie network: will that make less room for you to play?

Ren Suxi: No, I don’t think the actor’s play space is here. The play space is not a horizontal play. I think it should be dug deeper. That space is below, not next to it. I think it gives a face to the whole. I know what this character is like. Please go down.


1905 movie network: So, do you have any idea to dig up what is not written in the book?

Ren Suxi: Many of the roles I played before had no basis in drama, which means that this way is to fill in the blanks and fill the gaps in my previous work. But now that I have novels, I still hold that view. I don’t want to dig deep into things that are out of thin air, but dig deep into limited things.


1905 Movie Network: "Wang Zhao" is a little social fear. Will it be the other way around in your life?

Ren Suxi: I don’t have any obstacles in communicating with people. I am a person who is not afraid of embarrassment at all, because I can get rid of embarrassment. I am a bit of the antonym of "Wang Zhao".

1905 Movie Network: In addition to "Looking for Han Ji", there will be works such as "Have a little heart" and "The Waste Land" to meet the audience in the future. Will it suddenly get busy?

Ren Suxi: It sounds like a bumper harvest, mainly because of the epidemic situation. All of them have been saved. I think it’s best to take a break after shooting one, and then come back to another one, but sometimes the script is not waiting for you, and sometimes it is just to shoot at this time, and you like the role very much, so you don’t have a break, and you are ok or not.


The choice is that you really don’t want to go, and you can’t bear to give up the role, but if you really go, you will be tired. This thing may still have the strength now, and I think it’s ok. I may not have the strength in two years. As soon as my eyes are still glowing, I will judge whether my eyes are still glowing. I will do it if I am still glowing. I will do it if I am energetic. If I don’t, I won’t occupy this pit, and I will quickly withdraw.


1905 Movie Network: Now that you are busy filming, will there be less time for self-accumulation in the past?

Ren Suxi: I used to think so. Of course, I think it is better to have this accumulated time now, but now I have learned to accumulate while working, because work is also an accumulation. Sometimes we always say that we don’t have time to live, but you are still living every day, but the space and situation in which you live are different. Now I am slowly learning to work while absorbing life.


1905 Movie Network: Look at these works, maybe the next year will be your explosion, can you reach the stage of self-summary?

Ren Suxi: That hasn’t arrived yet. I don’t think it should be. I think you can summarize at any time, that is, you can summarize after finishing a job. But I’m a person with no clear plan, and I haven’t thought about what I want to do in the future. I just want to live every day well and try my best to do it when I meet a good script in the present.

In fact, what you say is quite general, but it is also true. This is also the truth. This is the way to do it. If you want to say what will happen to many films in the future, for example, now, then what can it do? Just let it flow naturally, I will do it.


1905 Movie Network: Will you never be satisfied with your current works, and don’t want to give up when you meet good ones?

Ren Suxi: This is human greed. I think this is greed. What do you say? Ok, as long as you play well, people can’t play, so you have to go, and you really take yourself seriously. It’s ok if you don’t go, but the key is whether it’s only 30, and it’s normal to have a little desire. I sometimes feel that I don’t think of myself as a Buddha, and I have a little desire. I’m just greedy and want to play all these well, but you have to really try your best. What’s the result? I really do.


1905 Movie Network: Now it seems that you dare to try any role, and have no scruples?

Ren Suxi: I think it’s quite fierce, just like filming "The Waste Land". Why do I expect that play? Few people dare to perform that play. My face is sunburned, and my whole face is broken. Then I really plunged my face into a stone. I really plunged into it.


I regretted it the next day. To be honest, I said to buy a ticket for me and stop filming. See how much it costs to compensate people. But patting will be addictive, and I will feel that I am here, and I will be able to do it well, because no one dares to do it except me, so I will do it. If I give it a try, it will arouse your fighting spirit again.


I also found that acting with nature is completely different from acting with people. You get a different life experience, but after the performance, I will tell myself that it’s a good thing I acted, otherwise I won’t experience this time. There are gains and losses, and I think there are gains and losses.


1905 Movie Network: In fact, there is a phenomenon, that is, most of your movies are relatively low in the early stage, but their word of mouth is very good. Will you fall into this strange circle of chaos?

Ren Suxi: I don’t think it’s strange at all. Why? This question is worth talking about, because if I don’t show it frequently, for example, I’ve been writing in my pants, and I won’t go there, and I won’t go there, and I won’t go to this activity, and I won’t expose it. That’s what happens. No one knows you. If you don’t know you for a year or so, no one really knows you.

You know you are creating in pants, but others don’t know. When you finish this creation, well, I have finished something, and now I want everyone to see it. Who are you? It is such a situation.


But you said that if I go to the exposure, I will go to anything, this and that, and I will always show my face, but how can I create? I think this thing is a very contradictory thing. I think someone can do both, but I don’t have the ability. I just don’t think I have the ability. Every time I encounter this situation, I just want to be on the film. I know that this thing is a good thing, but how can you let everyone see it? How can you let the first batch of people walk in? This thing has been bothering me, but I don’t think there is any way to do it today. I’d better try to play something with a small investment so as not to make people lose money. This is the best way.


Correctly understand the general trend of China’s economic development (rational view of economic situation)

  Core reading

  China’s economy has great development resilience and potential, and the long-term positive fundamentals have not changed.

In the first half of the year, the GDP increased by 5.5% year-on-year, which was significantly faster than the economic growth rate of 3% in the whole year of last year, and was also significantly faster than the economic growth rate of major developed economies in the world.

  Consumption recovered and the investment structure continued to be optimized. Since the beginning of this year, the economy and society have fully resumed normal operation, and the order of production and life has been accelerated. China’s consumption has recovered. 1— In July, the total retail sales of social consumer goods increased by 7.3% year-on-year, service consumption increased rapidly, cultural and entertainment consumption continued to expand, and online retail remained active. The scale of investment in fixed assets continued to expand, and investment in high-tech industries grew rapidly. 1— In July, investment in fixed assets (excluding farmers) increased by 3.4% year-on-year, of which investment in infrastructure and manufacturing increased by 6.8% and 5.7% respectively, and investment in high-tech industries increased by 11.5%.

  Industrial upgrading was steadily advanced, and the recovery of service industry was accelerated. Since the beginning of this year, the three industries have continued to recover and the development foundation has been consolidated. Agricultural production remained stable, and summer grain production achieved a bumper harvest. Industrial production continued to recover, 1-mdash; In July, the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 3.8% year-on-year. The green transformation achieved remarkable results, new energy-related industries developed well, new energy vehicles, photovoltaic cells and other products grew rapidly, and the driving force for upstream and downstream industries was also enhanced. The service industry grew rapidly, 1-mdash; In July, the national service industry production index increased by 8.3% year-on-year, and the growth rate of contact and aggregation services such as accommodation, catering and transportation rebounded significantly.

  The trade structure continued to be optimized. China has actively expanded its high-level opening to the outside world and promoted the optimization of trade structure. The scale of import and export of goods is generally stable and the trade surplus remains at a high level. 1— In July, the import and export of general trade with higher added value accounted for 65.4% of the total import and export, and the import and export of private enterprises increased by 6.7%, accounting for 52.9% of the total import and export; Imports and exports to countries along the Belt and Road increased by 7.4% year-on-year, faster than the growth rate of all imports and exports.

  Employment and people’s livelihood are strongly guaranteed. With the improvement of economic recovery, the policy of stabilizing employment has been effective continuously, and the employment situation has gradually improved. In the first half of the year, 6.78 million new jobs were created in cities and towns nationwide, an increase of 240,000 over the same period of last year. The average unemployment rate in national urban surveys is 5.3%. Residents’ income grew rapidly. In the first half of the year, the per capita disposable income of the national residents was 19,672 yuan, a real increase of 5.8% after deducting the price factor, which was significantly faster than the growth rate of last year.

  Under the complicated and severe external environment, such as the weak recovery of the world economy, the high level of global inflation, and the prominent spillover effect of monetary policy tightening in major economies, China’s economic growth rate remains ahead of the major economies, demonstrating the strong resilience of China’s economic development. At the same time, we must see that the current economic operation is facing new difficulties and challenges, mainly due to insufficient domestic demand, difficulties in some enterprises, many hidden risks in key areas, and complex and severe external environment. Among them, there are both cyclical and structural factors, both developmental and institutional obstacles, both supply-side and demand-side drivers, both domestic and international risks. However, in the long run and the general trend, China’s economy has great development resilience and potential, and the long-term positive fundamentals have not changed, and China’s development is facing new strategic opportunities.

  China’s continuous development and growth has brought new development opportunities.

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Our greatest opportunity is our continuous development and growth". After the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening-up, we have completed the industrialization process that developed countries have gone through for hundreds of years in decades, and at the same time made great achievements in various fields such as politics, culture, society and ecological civilization. Self-development is the most solid foundation for us to cope with risk challenges, and it also brings us more development opportunities.

  China’s entry into a new stage of development contains an important opportunity to achieve new and greater development. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, historic achievements and changes have taken place in the cause of the Party and the state, which not only successfully promoted and expanded Chinese modernization, but also provided a more perfect institutional guarantee, a more solid material foundation and a more active spiritual force for Chinese modernization. We have completed the historical task of getting rid of poverty and building a well-off society in an all-round way, and entered a new development stage of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way. Based on the new development stage, implementing the new development concept, building a new development pattern and promoting high-quality development, China will achieve new and greater development.

  The historic leap of China’s economic strength contains an important opportunity for structural optimization and upgrading. Since the reform and opening up, China’s gross domestic product (GDP) has grown at an average annual rate of about 9%; In the past decade, the average annual growth rate has exceeded 6%, and the economic strength has achieved a historic leap. In 2022, China’s GDP accounted for about 18% of the global economy, ranking second in the world. On the basis of continuing to maintain the advantages of complete industrial system, leading industrial chain supporting capacity in the world, and ranking first in manufacturing scale in the world, China has promoted the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, promoted the rapid development of strategic emerging industries and advanced manufacturing industries, promoted the healthy development of digital economy, significantly improved its scientific and technological innovation capability, and continuously optimized its economic structure. Making full use of the advantages of China’s super-large-scale market, expanding domestic demand as a whole and deepening structural reform on the supply side, and forming a higher level dynamic balance between demand pulling supply and supply creating demand will continuously promote the optimization and upgrading of China’s economic structure and enhance our endogenous motivation to stabilize the basic economic disk and win the initiative in development.

  Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s system is more mature and stereotyped, which provides us with an important opportunity to deal with uncertainty and turn crisis into opportunity. China’s socialist system has extraordinary organizational mobilization ability, overall coordination ability and implementation ability, and can concentrate on doing great things, difficult things and urgent things. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, our party has adhered to and improved the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system, promoted the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, and focused on the deployment of fundamental systems, basic systems and important systems that support the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system. With great political courage, we have comprehensively deepened reform, strengthened the reform of top-level design, resolutely eliminated the shortcomings of various institutional mechanisms, promoted the basic institutional framework in various fields, and achieved historic changes, systematic reshaping and overall reconstruction in many fields. At present, the century-old changes are accelerating, the changes of the world, the times and the history are unfolding in an unprecedented way, and the unstable and uncertain factors are increasing significantly. By giving full play to the advantages of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s system, we can effectively cope with the uncertainty of the external environment, guard against and resist risks, and seize the opportunity to fight a strategic initiative war to turn danger into opportunity.

  Firmly grasp the new strategic opportunities contained in the hundred-year change

  General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Entering the new stage of development, profound changes in the domestic and international environment have brought a series of new opportunities as well as a series of new challenges, which are the coexistence of crises, the organic nature of crises and the turning point of crises." At present, the great changes in the world that have never happened in a century have accelerated their evolution, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation have developed in depth, and the international forces have been deeply adjusted, which has brought new risks and challenges as well as new strategic opportunities for China’s development.

  The world’s scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation have provided us with new opportunities to open up new fields and new tracks for economic development and to shape new development momentum and new advantages. At present, a new round of scientific and technological revolution characterized by intelligence, networking and digitalization is profoundly changing the production and lifestyle of human beings, and technological breakthroughs represented by new energy, new materials and biotechnology are reconstructing the future of social productive forces. In this round of scientific and technological revolution, China is no longer an outsider, but a participant, a runner and even a leader in some fields. We adhere to the strategy of innovation-driven development and give full play to the leading role of scientific and technological innovation. Firmly grasping the historical opportunity of this round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, we will certainly be able to open up new fields and tracks for economic development and shape new kinetic energy and advantages for development.

  Economic globalization provides us with new opportunities to promote high-level opening up. In recent years, although the trend of anti-globalization has risen, unilateralism and protectionism have obviously increased, economic globalization conforms to the general trend of world development and is an irreversible trend of the times. China has adopted a more proactive opening-up strategy, actively participated in the international division of labor, more effectively integrated into the global industrial chain, supply chain and value chain, and more actively expanded foreign exchanges and cooperation. The average contribution rate of China’s economy to world economic growth has exceeded 30% for many years, and China has maintained its position as the world’s largest trader of goods for many years, ranking second in the world in terms of foreign capital utilization and ranking first in the world in terms of foreign investment. It has contributed to global economic growth and created more strategic opportunities for its own development. Conforming to the general trend, based on the national conditions, correctly choosing the path and rhythm of integration into economic globalization, and making full use of domestic and international markets and resources can accelerate the construction of a new development pattern and promote high-quality development.

  The positive changes in the balance of international power provide us with new opportunities to strengthen cooperation with emerging market countries and developing countries. In recent years, the international power balance is undergoing unprecedented positive changes. The rise of emerging market countries and developing countries in groups has gradually improved their position in the world economy and played a role in the international industrial division of labor, which has driven the speed, breadth and depth of international pattern adjustment and is fundamentally changing the world political and economic map. As the largest developing country in the world, strengthening cooperation with emerging market countries and developing countries can not only complement each other’s advantages and promote the developing countries to enhance their endogenous development momentum, but also expand the external space for China’s economic development and create new strategic opportunities.

  The reform of global governance system provides us with new opportunities to play a greater role in global governance. In the past few decades, the international economic power has undergone a profound evolution, but the global governance system has failed to reflect the new pattern, which is not representative and inclusive enough. The international community is increasingly calling for the reform of the global governance system. Together with other countries, China has promoted the development of the international order and global governance system in a more just and rational direction, promoted the development of economic globalization in a more open, inclusive, inclusive, balanced and win-win direction, and promoted the building of a community of human destiny, which not only creates a good international environment for the development of the world economy, but also brings new strategic opportunities for China’s development.

  Economic fluctuation is a normal phenomenon in the market economy, and the economy always runs in fluctuation. We should not only see the short-term fluctuations, but also take effective measures to continuously promote the sustained improvement of economic operation. More importantly, we should correctly understand the long-term positive development trend of China’s economy, fully understand and make good use of new strategic opportunities, accelerate the construction of a new development pattern, continuously expand China’s economic strength, scientific and technological strength and comprehensive national strength, and enhance China’s viability, competitiveness, development and sustainability.
