What is the current situation of the cross-border e-commerce market？

Author: Xiaguang think tank, original title: "Impact of changes in the international situation on cross-border trade exports and countermeasures", title from: AI generation

I. Scale and growth potential of global e-commerce market

According to public information, the global e-commerce retail sales in 2023 was about 5.8 trillion US dollars, and it is estimated that by 2027, this figure will exceed 8 trillion US dollars.

Among them,China is the country with the largest e-commerce transaction in the world, accounting for nearly half of the total global e-commerce retail sales.At the same time, it is also the country with the highest penetration rate of e-commerce in the world. The scale of online retail transactions accounts for about one-third of the total retail sales of consumer goods.

In terms of growth rate:

The e-commerce market in Southeast Asia showed an explosive growth trend in 2023, and the total transaction volume of e-commerce platforms reached US$ 114.6 billion, a year-on-year increase of 15%. Among them, Indonesia is one of the fastest growing e-commerce markets in Southeast Asia. In June 2024, the total sales of Shopee and Lazada platforms in Indonesia reached about 1.16 billion US dollars, an increase of about 84% year-on-year.

In 2023, the volume of e-commerce transactions in Latin America was about 509 billion US dollars, and it is expected to reach 923 billion US dollars by 2026, which also shows a strong growth trend. According to Statista’s forecast, from 2023 to 2027, the growth rate of retail e-commerce sales in Brazil will rank first among 20 countries in the world, with a compound annual growth rate of 14.6%; In 2023, Mexico’s e-commerce market maintained double-digit growth for five consecutive years, reaching 658 billion pesos, an increase of 24.6% compared with 2022, making Mexico the fastest growing e-commerce market in the world; Argentina’s e-commerce market grew by 29.9% in 2023, far exceeding the world average of 8.9%, ranking first in the world.

South Korea’s online retail market is expected to grow strongly with a compound annual growth rate of 7.9%, and the market size will reach 182.7 billion US dollars by 2028.

Second, the scale and overseas distribution of cross-border e-commerce market in China

According to public information, the scale of cross-border e-commerce market in China in 2023 (according to GMV statistics) is 1.4 trillion US dollars, with a compound annual growth rate of 18.5% compared with that in 2019, accounting for about one-third of the entire e-commerce market in China. It is estimated that by 2028, cross-border e-commerce in China will still maintain a compound annual growth rate of 11.3%.

According to the data of the General Administration of Customs, the United States is the largest destination country for cross-border export e-commerce in China, and mature markets such as Europe and the United States are still the main target markets for cross-border sellers in China. With the implementation of free trade agreement and Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement, emerging markets will gradually become a new round of "gold-digging point" for cross-border sellers, and the trading partners of cross-border export e-commerce in China tend to be more diversified.

Third, the overseas development of cross-border e-commerce in China

In recent years, thanks to the support of relevant domestic policies, the gradual clarification of market rules, and the gradual improvement of service ecosystems such as logistics, payment, software technology and even AI, China’s cross-border e-commerce has developed at a high speed, and has continuously released its kinetic energy and growth potential, which has become an important starting point and key link for China’s domestic trade to foreign trade and foreign trade online, and an important window and incremental engine for China’s economic integration into globalization.

Developed countries such as Europe and America are still the mainstream markets for cross-border export e-commerce in China because of their advantages such as high maturity of e-commerce, strong purchasing power of consumers and perfect logistics and distribution system. However, with the gradual saturation of mature markets and the increasingly fierce competition among sellers, the market entry threshold has gradually increased and the operation difficulty has also increased. Therefore, China sellers not only need to stand out from the competition through high-quality products and accurate market positioning, but also need to have strong brand power to meet the diversified consumption needs of consumers and gain their recognition and repurchase stickiness, so as to realize large-scale realization and sustainable development.

In recent years, the emerging market economy is growing rapidly, the consumer groups are characterized by a younger structure, and the penetration rate of Internet and mobile devices has increased significantly. For the cross-border export e-commerce sellers in China who have been deeply involved in mature markets, they have a significant advantage in the competition in emerging markets because of their rich operating experience and outstanding management capabilities. In addition, influenced by purchasing power and consumption habits, consumers in emerging markets pay more attention to product cost performance, which provides strong growth momentum for China sellers to actively expand emerging markets and become an important group in the global e-commerce map.

Fourth, cross-border e-commerce platforms and brands/sellers in China should focus on the following aspects.

(a) Europe, America, Southeast Asia, Brazil and other overseas regional countries have introduced cross-border e-commerce restrictions.

1. The United States: The United States "small exemption" rule reform, Ohio Democratic Senator Brown and Florida Republican Senator Scott called for ending the tax-free treatment of e-commerce goods worth less than 800 dollars. This means that,If the policy is implemented, the quantity of goods entering the United States through the "small exemption" rule may be affected.Especially cross-border e-commerce platforms in China such as Temu and Shein.

2. Europe: The EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) came into effect on December 13th, 2024, which replaced the existing General Product Safety Directive (GPSD) and put forward stricter safety requirements for all non-food consumer goods sold in the EU market. All products must designate an authorized representative of the European Union (ODE), and clearly indicate the information of the person in charge in the product, packaging or accompanying documents. In 2023, the EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) policies of Austria, Spain, Sweden and Italy came into effect, requiring sellers to be responsible for the disposal of the waste generated after the use of their products.

3. Southeast Asia: Indonesia’s Ministry of Trade announced that it will sign the revised Trade Minister Order No.31 of 2023, the core contents of which includeSocial media is prohibited as a platform for commodity sales.It directly affects the business of platforms such as TikTokShop in Indonesia. Southeast Asia’s vigilance against cross-border sellers is partly due to the fact that cross-border sellers use low-price strategies to squeeze the living space of local retailers, which has triggered the fear of local governments.

4. Brazil: From August 1, 2024, the Brazilian government will impose a 20% import tax on imported goods with a value of no more than US$ 50, and individual imported drugs will be exempted from any additional tax. According to the latest law, small cross-border parcels worth less than $50 are subject to 20% import tax and 17% goods and services turnover tax (ICMS) of each state. For imported parcels worth more than $50, 60% of the import tax and 17% of the turnover tax on goods and services remain unchanged, and parcels worth more than $50 but less than $3,000 can be reduced or exempted by $20.

(2) Countermeasures and strategic suggestions

1. Optimize products and services: always pay attention to changes in consumer demand and market trends, and constantly optimize product quality and service level to meet market demand according to market feedback and regulatory requirements.

2. Strengthen brand building: Apart from "price attraction", "trust in the brand" has become the primary reason for overseas consumers to choose China’s global brand, and this trust does not necessarily come from well-known brands. Consumer research shows that among the reasons why overseas consumers choose China brands, well-known brands account for only 15%, ranking last, indicating whether overseas consumers can complete the mental occupation of China brands from initial curiosity to intermediate recognition to final trust, which mainly depends on.Whether product tonality and brand concept can fit with consumers’ core values.In view of the new demands of overseas consumers for a series of diversified brands, such as product quality, value concept and social experience, the supply side will be forced to continuously carry out high-end product transformation and upgrading and brand core value shaping to fully meet the "rigid+flexible" consumption needs of overseas consumers.

Therefore, more and more cross-border e-commerce companies have begun to increase investment in brand building, and enhance brand influence through marketing and services to enhance user stickiness and resist the pressure of price competition.

3. Diversified market layout: With the intensification of Sino-US trade friction, cross-border e-commerce enterprises in China need to increase their investment in emerging markets. Countries such as Southeast Asia and Africa have gradually become new growth points, which can not only disperse market risks, but also bring new business models and growth opportunities.

4. Multi-channel layout: Affected by platform compliance and policy uncertainty, domestic sellers pay more attention to multi-channel layout. Research shows that nearly half of sellers plan to try multi-platform layout and new channels in 2023. At the same time, emerging media will also become the core channel for sellers to focus on and plan to expand, so as to deepen localization service capabilities and expand new traffic portals.

5. Refined operation: Data show that with the intensification of market competition, both factory sellers, trade sellers and consumer brands have reached a consensus on refined operation as a key means to enhance competitiveness. Refined operation can bring many benefits, such as improving management efficiency, improving consumption experience and speeding up market response, but it also means higher management and operation costs. Software service tools for cross-border export e-commerce can help sellers realize process automation, data intelligence and operation accuracy, and control the cost of sellers at a low level, which provides strong support for cross-border export sellers in China to move forward steadily in the wave of global e-commerce.

6. Pay attention to changes in international policies: Enterprises need to pay close attention to changes in international trade policies and adopt corresponding coping strategies. We can use tools such as global trade analysis model to quantitatively analyze and predict the changes of international trade policy, so as to adjust overseas layout and operation strategy in advance.

7. Comply with international laws and regulations: Compliance of cross-border export e-commerce is an indispensable part in the development of platforms and businesses, including taxation and intellectual property rights. Therefore, it is necessary to deeply understand and strictly abide by the laws and regulations of the target market to avoid legal risks caused by illegal operations. Taking brand compliance as an example, according to public information of iResearch, in the United States in 2022 alone, China enterprises as defendants accounted for as high as 82.5% in cross-border e-commerce scene disputes, and the average amount of compensation reached 94,000 US dollars. However, small and medium-sized enterprises are the main groups of cross-border export e-commerce, and the cost of establishing a sound legal team is high. Therefore, cooperation with third-party compliance service providers has become an important consideration for cross-border sellers.

8. Technology empowerment, cost reduction and efficiency improvement: In the future, with the deep application of digital technologies such as big data, cloud computing and AI in all aspects of cross-border export service links, the operational efficiency of products will be further improved, the cost of providing products and services will be reduced, and the rapid development of cross-border services will be promoted.

Why is the polar fox Alpha T5 the preferred choice？ Compare the zero run C10 to give you the answer.

Among the new energy vehicles, Extreme Fox and Zero Run are both new power brands that have attracted much attention, among which the sales of Extreme Fox are particularly prominent. Extreme Fox Alfa T5 and both are popular models of these two brands. They both have excellent performance and design performance, but which one is more suitable for you? Next, we will make a detailed comparison between the two cars to help you make a more informed choice.

Appearance analysis, high eye-catching

Extreme Fox Alpha T5 adopts a brand-new design language in appearance design, and its overall shape is dynamic and fashionable. The front face adopts sharp headlights to create a strong visual impact. The body line is rich, and the side adopts sharp waistline design to increase the three-dimensional sense of the body. The rear part of the car adopts a penetrating taillight group, which creates a strong sense of movement.

The C10 Zero Run also adopts the family design language in appearance, and the overall shape is more atmospheric and stable. The front face adopts groups to create scientific and technological visual effects. The body lines are smooth, and the side faces are designed with simple lines to increase the sense of stability of the vehicle. The rear part adopts a penetrating taillight group to create a sense of high class.

In terms of size, the length, width and height of the body of the zero-run C10 are 4739/1900/1680mm and the wheelbase is 2825mm, which is good in length and height. The body circumference of the polar fox Alpha T5 is 4690/1936/1650mm, and the wheelbase is 2845mm, which is dominant in width and wheelbase.

Interior analysis, luxurious feeling

Extreme Fox Alpha T5 adopts minimalist style in the interior, and the overall shape is simple and scientific. The center console adopts a 15.6-inch display screen, which is more convenient to operate. The interior material is covered with a large number of soft and leather materials, creating a luxurious atmosphere. The seat is made of environmentally-friendly leather, and the sitting comfort is online.

The Zero Run C10 also adopts a simple style in the interior, and the overall shape is more modern. The center console adopts a suspended central control panel, and its functions are integrated in the central control system. The interior material is made of soft materials, creating a warm atmosphere, and the technology configuration does not fall in the wind.

Dynamic contrast, each has its own merits.

On the power level, the polar fox Alpha T5 uses a front motor with the maximum power of 200kW, the maximum torque of 360N·m and the official acceleration time of 100 km of 7.5 seconds. Zero run C10 uses a rear motor, with the maximum power of 170kW and the maximum torque of 320N·m, and the official acceleration time of 100 km is 7.29 seconds.

Endurance anxiety has always been one of the important factors restricting the popularization of new energy vehicles, and the Extreme Fox Alpha T5 has given a strong response with practical actions. With the advanced battery management system and efficient power recovery technology, it has achieved a long cruising range of 660 kilometers, completely subverting the stereotype of "short legs" of electric vehicles. The 800V overcharge platform can complete the charging from 30% to 80% in only 17 minutes. In contrast, the charging efficiency of the zero-run C10 is slower than one, and it takes 40 minutes from 30% to 80%. Imagine, in the expressway service area, the charging efficiency of Polar Fox Alpha T5 can make you get back on the road faster, while the charging time of Zero Run C10 may make you more stop for a minute in the service area. It can be said that in the long-distance driving, the polar fox Alpha T5 can save not only time, but also the smoothness and mood of the journey.

Summary: Extreme Fox Alpha T5 and Zero Run C10 are both outstanding in the field of new energy, and they have good performance in design and performance. If you like the minimalist interior design and have higher requirements for pure battery life, then the Extreme Fox Alpha T5 may be more suitable for you. If you prefer traditional and modern interior design, and consider the close comprehensive performance, then zero run C10 may also be a good choice. Of course, the final choice depends on personal driving habits, budget and brand preference. Let’s talk about good news. Recently, on the basis of the previous discount of 25,000 yuan, Alfa T5 gave a limited-time consumption voucher of 6,888 yuan, which is equivalent to the comprehensive benefit of 31,888 yuan for users during this period. Those who like Alfa T5 can start.

Across the Furious Sea exposed four major points of posters to detonate expectations.

1905 movie network news The film was released today and the poster of "Blood Sun" was released. As the third part of the "burning heart" series, it’s rare to see a violent "ferocity" upgrade, and it’s rare to see three views subvert the screen. The film is directed and written by, starring,,,,, starring, and starring. Taking a girl’s murder as a guide, in the burning questioning of love and hate, crime and punishment, it reveals the hidden pain and injury behind family of origin. The extremely bloody violence and the cool feeling of fighting against killing, and the top acting skills of Bo Huang Zhou Xun’s "The Best Actor and the Best Actress" have attracted countless audiences, and many female audiences have been deeply touched by Nana’s tragedy in the film, reflecting on their own search for the answer to love. "It’s like a sharp sword stabbing into the heart, which brings the most shocking impact", "It’s even better than expected, and it’s a unique domestic film", "Unexpectedly, it’s reasonable" and "It’s like seeing myself when I was a child, and I can’t stop crying." The film started the national roadshow of "Safe Island of Love" on November 21st, which received rave reviews and was praised as "the best of the year". Across the Furious Sea officially met with the audience today, taking home as the anchor and reaching the other side of love with heart. It is recommended that the audience under the age of 18 carefully choose to watch.

Aspect 1: Best of the Year! The "burning heart" series is refreshing, and the large-scale "ruthless film" screen is rare.

The film is based on the murder of a girl who was stabbed 17 times. The "cruel father" Laojin (Bo Huang) looks at the body of his beloved daughter and is so angry that he decides to take revenge on the sea. The way to chase the murderer is to find the biggest suspect, Li Miaomiao (Youhao Zhang), and Jing Lan (Zhou Xun), the mother wolf, are eager to step forward, which has become the biggest obstacle on Laojin’s revenge. As the truth of Nana’s murder surfaced, Laojin finally realized that it was not a sea of anger, but a self-redemption about love. The film released a poster today, and the red sun is like a prison, trapping everyone in it and becoming a prisoner of love. What kind of tragic truth is hidden in the sun, and what kind of despair and sadness is surging behind the ultimate pursuit of revenge? Arouse endless reverie.

"Malicious Father" and "Wolf Mother", "Bad Boy" and Girl … … The intricate human relations and the interlocking plot of chasing after the murderer touch people’s hearts, and the hot and complicated love and the corresponding hatred push the emotions to a climax step by step. Strong rhythm and large-scale scenes such as Yu Yu wonders, track chasing, fire fighting and so on bring audio-visual impact, and multiple suspense layers are reversed to satisfy the audience’s appetite. The audience who took the lead in watching movies through roadshows received constant praise, saying, "It’s enjoyable, and I don’t want to miss it for a second": "It’s even more shocking than expected, and the ending is even more unexpected"; "The adrenaline in the first half soared, and the pain in the second half was heartbreaking for a long time"; and "Everyone is very close to madness, as if they are far away from us, but their obsession with family and love seems to be close to us, and they are very scared after reading it."

Aspect 2: explosion reservation! Cao Baoping hit another high score, and all the members of the crime film were arrogant. The audience marveled at "killing crazy"

Produced in Cao Baoping, it must be a boutique! As the leader of Chinese crime movies, Cao Baoping’s excellent films with high scores (2008), (2015) and (2016) are still regarded as classics by countless movie fans. Because the main actors who directed many films have won heavyweight awards at domestic and foreign film festivals, they have also been awarded the title of "the film maker after the film". Across the Furious Sea, as the latest masterpiece of Cao Baoping’s "burning heart" series, continued his consistent temperament of crime types, and on the basis of his strong rhythm and large-scale style, he upgraded the story, perception, emotion and human nature. Under the harsh requirements of the director, the paranoia and madness of the characters are vividly reflected, and the audience is deeply moved by the role, praising the director’s ultimate creation. "It is a good play to push the characters into the corner."

Every good film can’t be separated from the constant polishing and tempering of the director and the leading actors. In addition to the greedy creation of the director, there are also leading actors who go all out for the ultimate. Actors Bo Huang and Zhou Xun broke the previous performance habit and explored new boundaries of performance. Their vigorous acting skills made the audience shine, exclaiming "strangeness and surprise". Young actors Youhao Zhang and Zhou still challenged the large-scale screen image for the first time, presenting the psychology of morbid evil children and loveless girls delicately, and contributing many high-profile scenes to the film. The audience was also deeply impressed by the wonderful interpretation of the starring roles, "Bo Huang’s love and hate under the surface of anger, Zhou Xun’s love and contradiction as a mother, Zhou’s sensitivity and fragility hidden under his naivety, and the multifaceted coexistence of Youhao Zhang’s affection and demons … … New and old actors have played their best in Cao Baoping’s films. "

Aspect 3: Extreme pain! "Burning Heart" All sentient beings reveal the sorrow of family of origin and tear apart the harm of parents "in the name of love"

A revenge film that will be "splashed with blood" and a road to redemption that is "full of tears". Across the Furious Sea seems to be a fierce and sharp crime movie, but the core is directed at the dislocation of love in family of origin. The film combines the topic of family of origin with the types of suspense crimes. Behind the tense plot and extreme emotions, it is a reflection on the abnormal education of some parents at present. In modern society, the love in many families is often "deep and heavy", and both parents and children lack the expression and behavior of love for each other. The dislocation of love also makes communication become an unbreakable wall between parents and children, and it is a harm in the name of love. This inspired Cao Baoping, the director, to inject more soul and reflection into the film on the basis of crime stories. He hoped that through the film, we could face the hurt in family and learn and express love with practical actions.

The film is full of "violence of love", and the director fully inspires the anger of the characters and the audience with a sharp knife. Many viewers marvel that "Cao Baoping is brave and a director, not only bloody and violent in vision, but also subversive and challenging in three views. No domestic film has ever criticized family of origin so sharply." At the same time, it also gives the audience a better understanding of the "18 Forbidden". "18 Forbidden is not only a vigorous plot, but also a profound theme of the film. Perhaps only when we grow up will we really understand that some’ love’ is not love."

Aspect 4: Love yourself! The dilemma of "love is incompetent" women directly pokes people’s hearts, heals the pain and bravely lets "love exist"

The film Across the Furious Sea continues the series of crimes of "burning heart", and also adds a lot of descriptions and emotional expressions to the role of housewives, especially through Ri-na Kim’s perspective to describe this tragedy in family of origin, and the film stamped by fans is "Burning Heart in the Hot Sun" version.

Whether it is "Wolf Mother" Jing Lan or "Daughter" Ri-na Kim, their personalities are very vivid and three-dimensional, and their situation is also a microcosm of the current plight of women in the family. They are all crazy about love and hurt by love, which has caused countless female audiences to empathize. When creating the roadshow of airborne Beijing Foreign Studies University, Fan Deng, the host, looked for the "cause" for Nana, thinking that Nana was "lack of qualification" and felt inferior in her heart that she was not qualified to be loved. Many female viewers were poked by Nana after reading it, and frankly said, "I am also Nana, and I was stabbed by my parents at a very young age, and this kind of injury in the name of love will bear for life" … … True heroism is to see through the truth of life and still love life. Actor Zhou still warmly comforted "Nanas". "The canoe has crossed Chung Shan Man, learn to love yourself and bravely walk out of the whirlpool of family of origin." After watching the movie, many viewers also felt "pain and healing", and loving themselves is the first step to heal their hearts. The study of love is a compulsory course forever. The movie Across the Furious Sea awakens more audiences to face family of origin’s scar through a tragedy. It is better to let it be seen in the sun and embrace more love responses than to seal the "safe island of love" in the bottom of my heart.I hope that every adult who has watched the movie will have the opportunity to let "love exist".

The film Across the Furious Sea is directed and written by Cao Baoping, co-written by Wu Pipi and Jiao Huajing, starring Bo Huang and Zhou Xun, starring Zu Feng, Youhao Zhang, Zhou Yiran, Yan Bei and Sun Anke, and featuring NI YAN and Wang Xun. It will be shown nationwide today.

＂Scientists＂ emergency exposure of energy-saving lamps causes cancer？ Expert response： nonsense!

　　An article entitled "Emergency Exposure of Scientists! The article "Things that Chinese people use every day actually contain horrible carcinogens" has been widely forwarded recently. This article points out that a household necessity that everyone never imagined — — Energy-saving light bulbs are actually a super cancer source that induces a variety of cancers.

　　On the premise of achieving the same lighting effect, energy-saving lamps consume only 1/5 of ordinary incandescent lamps, but their life span is 6 times. It is precisely because of this advantage that energy-saving lamps are being popularized all over the world. However, the discussion about its security has never stopped.

　　It is understood that at present, energy-saving lamps occupy half of the lighting market in China. So is the energy-saving lamp so widely used really a carcinogenic culprit lurking around people?

　　Can ultraviolet radiation of energy-saving lamps cause skin cancer?

　　The lamp tube is made of soft glass, and it is difficult to emit ultraviolet rays.

　　The article circulated in the circle of friends pointed out that the researchers found that when the human body is exposed to energy-saving lamps, the skin cells will be seriously damaged, while the human skin cells placed under the old ordinary light bulbs will not be damaged.

　　By consulting relevant materials, the reporter found that the relevant articles of this experiment were published in the 2013 American Science Life. The article said: "The ultraviolet radiation released by energy-saving lamps may damage human skin cells, lead to premature aging and even lead to fatal skin cancer." However, the reporter noticed that the research mentioned in the article used skin cells soaked in Petri dishes and cultured in vitro, unlike cells on our bodies, which were protected by epidermis. Secondly, the skin cells were irradiated by energy-saving lamps with short distance (2.5 cm), long time and large radiation. Some experts analyzed that this was far from the actual situation in life.

　　"I haven’t seen this experiment carefully, but at least this research seems to be not very rigorous." Zhou Taiming, a consultant to the Expert Working Committee of China Lighting Society and a professor at Fudan University, told the Science and Technology Daily reporter on December 3 that the energy-saving lamp is actually a compact fluorescent lamp with its own ballast. After electrifying, the mercury atoms in the lamp tube release invisible ultraviolet rays, which hit the phosphor coating on the inner wall of the lamp body and then turn into visible white light. This way of using ultraviolet light to emit light can convert more electric energy into light energy, thus achieving the purpose of saving electricity.

　　"The test results of authoritative testing institutions at home and abroad show that the ultraviolet radiation of lamps only accounts for six thousandths of the power." Zhou Taiming said that the ultraviolet power of the 15-watt energy-saving lamp is only 0.09 watt. "Moreover, the long-wave ultraviolet rays in the energy-saving lamp will not penetrate the dermis of the human body."

　　"In the past, many hospitals installed two lamps in their rooms, one for lighting and the other for ultraviolet disinfection." A light source detection technician who is not convenient to be named explained, "The lamp tube of this ultraviolet disinfection lamp is made of Shi Ying glass, just to let ultraviolet rays penetrate more for sterilization, while the energy-saving lamps are all made of soft glass, and ultraviolet rays are difficult to come out."

　　Zhou Taiming emphasized that generally speaking, as long as it is a qualified energy-saving lamp, it will meet the standard of "Photobiological Safety of Lamps and Lamp Systems" in China, and the amount of ultraviolet radiation will be controlled within a safe range without causing harm to the human body.

　　Mercury in energy-saving lamps can kill people?

　　Hundreds of them can be broken at the same time in a small confined space, which may cause harm.

　　The above article also points out that energy-saving light bulbs contain a highly toxic substance — — Mercury, once the human body inhales 2.5 grams of this substance, it will lead to death.

　　Li Zili, director of the lighting room of Guangdong Institute of Product Quality Supervision and Inspection, said: "Mercury is toxic, which is true. The article says that 2.5 grams will kill people, which may be correct. However, there are only a few milligrams of mercury in an energy-saving lamp, and it is sealed in the lamp. Even if the lamp is broken, hundreds of lamps will be broken at the same time, and it is only in a very small closed environment that all of them are inhaled by one person, which may cause harm to people. But what are the chances of this happening in reality?

　　Researcher Li Jinmin, executive chairman of R&D of the National Semiconductor Lighting Engineering and Industry Alliance and director of the State Key Laboratory of Semiconductor Lighting Joint Innovation, bluntly said that everyone knows that mercury is a harmful substance, and energy-saving lamps do contain mercury. However, at present, most energy-saving lamps are produced with low-mercury or micro-mercury technology to reduce the amount of mercury, and China’s low-mercury or micro-mercury technology is leading the world. "Now there is less than 4 mg of mercury in a low-mercury energy-saving lamp."

　　"In recent years, due to the improvement of production technology and the promotion of policies, the mercury in fluorescent lamps has changed from liquid mercury to solid mercury, which greatly reduces the possibility of harm to human body." Zhou Taiming said.

　　During the interview, experts all said that in fact, the greater harm of mercury is environmental pollution. Li Jinmin mentioned that there was a serious mercury pollution incident in Minamata, Japan in the middle of the 20th century. In January 2013, the United Nations Environment Programme adopted the Minamata Convention, an international convention aimed at controlling and reducing mercury emissions on a global scale, and made detailed provisions on the specific emission limitation scope to reduce the harm caused by mercury to the environment and human health. In April 2016, the 20th meeting of the 12th the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) of China decided to ratify the Minamata Convention on Mercury, which requires the contracting parties to ban the production, import and export of mercury-containing products from 2020.

　　Will electricity release a variety of carcinogens?

　　Experts say they haven’t heard that energy-saving lamps will release harmful substances such as naphthalene.

　　In addition to pointing out that mercury in energy-saving lamps can cause death, articles circulating in friends circle also indicate that energy-saving lamps can induce breast cancer, prostate cancer and other cancers. The article wrote: "Scientists in the laboratory of Alab in Germany explained that the energy-saving light bulbs used by people not only contain mercury, but also release a variety of carcinogens, such as phenol, when the light bulbs are powered on, and the heat and steam generated by the energy-saving light bulbs will release some terrible toxins, including naphthalene and styrene."

　　In fact, the study mentioned in this article was reported in 2013. Most domestic media quoted an article in the British Daily Telegraph. However, through the relevant information in the text, the reporter did not retrieve the original text.

　　"We have never heard that energy-saving lamps will release these toxic substances." Zhou Taiming said. In 2005, the article "Research Report on the Use of Harmful Substances in Electric Light Source Products" published in the sixth issue of China Lighting Appliances mainly discussed the potential hazards and countermeasures of mercury, lead and arsenic, but did not talk about other harmful substances.

　　Some people are worried about the electromagnetic radiation of energy-saving lamps. The National Electric Light Source Quality Supervision and Inspection Center (Shanghai) responded as early as 2012. They used a metal ball with a diameter of 30 cm to simulate a person’s head, and placed the energy-saving lamp 30 cm away from the metal ball to measure the intensity of induced current generated by the electromagnetic field radiated by the energy-saving lamp, and found that it did not exceed the limit specified by the standard. (Reporter Cao Xiuying)

　　How to choose energy-saving lamps more safely

　　Experts said that although the energy-saving lamps contain mercury and have little ultraviolet radiation, there is no need to panic within the acceptable range of ordinary people.

　　If you want to be more secure, you can do the following:

　　① When buying, please look for regular manufacturers in regular channels, and don’t buy unqualified products for low prices.

He hopes to create a high-quality music learning environment through "happy keys", so that more children who love music can participate in it and enjoy music.

What kind of oil does palm oil futures belong to？ What is the market demand for this oil？

Palm oil futures, as an important member of the agricultural futures market, its basic asset is palm oil. Palm oil is a kind of vegetable oil extracted from the fruit of oil palm tree, which is widely used in many fields such as food processing, cooking and biofuel. Its unique physical and chemical properties, such as high smoke point, good oxidation resistance and stability, make it occupy an important position in the global oil market.

The market demand of palm oil shows obvious regional and seasonal characteristics. Palm oil is one of the main edible oils in Asia, especially in India and China, and the demand is huge. In addition, with the increasing global attention to sustainable energy, the application of palm oil in biodiesel production is also expanding. This diversified demand structure makes the palm oil market have high liquidity and price volatility.

In order to better understand the market demand of palm oil, we can compare the demand of different regions and uses through the following table:

region main application Annual demand (million tons) Asia edible oil 15 Europe biodiesel five North America food processing three

As can be seen from the table, the demand for palm oil in Asia is dominant, while Europe and North America use it more for biodiesel and food processing. This demand distribution not only affects the price of palm oil, but also challenges its supply chain and logistics.

Palm oil futures trading is mainly concentrated in internationally renowned futures exchanges, such as Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) and Malaysian Derivatives Exchange (BMD). These exchanges provide standardized contracts, allowing investors to hedge price risks or speculate through the futures market. The price of palm oil futures is affected by many factors, including global supply and demand balance, weather conditions, policy changes and price fluctuations of substitutes.

For investors, understanding the market demand and price drivers of palm oil is the key to effective trading. By analyzing historical price data, supply and demand reports and macroeconomic indicators, investors can better grasp market trends and formulate reasonable trading strategies.

In a word, palm oil futures, as an important agricultural futures, have a wide and diversified market demand. Palm oil plays an indispensable role in both edible oil and biofuel. For the participants in the futures market, a deep understanding of the dynamics and influencing factors of this market is an important prerequisite for achieving the investment goal.

The wild Siberian tiger entered the sheepfold and killed 22 sheep (Figure)

Special topic: picture channel

The sheep was eaten by the tiger, and Sun was really distressed. Peng Dan/photo

　　On January 19th, a wild Siberian tiger reappeared in Hunchun, staying for 11 hours in a sheepfold near Wushe Village, Taiyang Village, Banshi Town, without any fear of gunfire. As a result, 22 sheep were killed.

　　Near the ruins of Shitouhe Ancient City, Wushe, Taiyang Village, Banshi Town, there is a sheepfold containing more than 300 sheep. The owners of these sheep are Sun Mou, a professional sheep farmer. According to Sun, at 17 o’clock on January 19, he was resting in the house when he suddenly heard an abnormal noise in the sheepfold more than 10 meters away from the house, so he quickly ran out to see what had happened. It doesn’t matter at first sight. I saw an extra tiger in the sheepfold, biting a sheep’s hip. Sun was so scared that his legs were weak. After a while, he calmed down and immediately ran back to the house to call the police.

　　When the police of Hunchun Forest Public Security Bureau rushed to the scene of the incident, there was already a river of blood in the sheepfold. Through the lighting facilities, people at the scene saw that it was a male Siberian tiger weighing more than 200 kilograms. The policeman sat in the car and tried to scare the tiger away by firing a gun. However, the tiger didn’t seem to be afraid. He still ate delicious food with relish until his stomach became bulging, and then he swaggered away. At this time, it was already 4 am the next day. After confirming that the tiger left, the police came to the sheepfold to check. A total of 22 sheep were buried in the tiger’s mouth, of which two were all eaten and 20 sheep were bitten off.

　　According to the staff of Hunchun Forestry Bureau, the place where the Northeast Tiger committed the crime was only 10 kilometers away from the urban area, 5 kilometers away from the Hunchun Quanhe Port and 1 kilometer away from the nearby villages, belonging to the border between China and Russia. The staff of the bureau have surveyed the site and the relevant compensation matters are in progress. Reporter Peng Dan/Report

＂Running points＂ money laundering exceeds 200 million! Shenyang police busted three criminal gangs.

　　Recently, Shenyang police have successively destroyed three money laundering and "running" criminal gangs that returned to China from overseas fraud dens, arrested 20 criminal suspects, and seized 163 bank cards, 50 mobile phones and 6 computers involved. At present, more than 170 cases have been initially verified, involving many provinces and cities across the country, involving a total amount of 210 million yuan.

　　Card-breaking clues lead to "money laundering" transfer stations, tracing them layer by layer and cutting off the interest chain of "running points"

　　At the beginning of April 2021, Shenyang police found that a bank card under Qu Moumou (female, 46 years old) involved a false investment fraud case in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. The police summoned Qu Moumou to the public security organs according to law. Upon inquiry, Qu Moumou confessed to the illegal facts of selling bank cards and confessed to the criminal suspect Liang Moumou (male, 27 years old) who bought bank cards.

　　On April 13, the police handling the case arrested Liang in his home. After the trial, Liang confessed the fact that he bought and sold bank cards from 2020, and helped Han and others to transfer funds involved in fraud and "run points" to profit from money laundering. Upon learning of this situation, Shenyang police immediately conducted an in-depth study on the "Paofen" money laundering gang, and organized police to arrest members of the gang overnight. Eight suspects, including Han Mou (male, 33 years old), were arrested on the spot in the Holiday European Community of Hutai Town, xinmin city, and 22 mobile phones and 45 bank cards were seized.

　　According to the criminal suspect Han, in 2018, he met a Xiamen man abroad, who was the general manager of the local online gambling money laundering gang. Han followed the man to learn online gambling money laundering methods in the local area. In 2020, after Han returned to China, he set up a money laundering team in China, continued to provide money laundering services for the man, and earned handling fees from it. The total amount of funds involved was more than 70 million yuan, from which he illegally profited more than 1.3 million yuan. The team has a clear division of labor. Some people are responsible for acquiring bank cards, some are responsible for dispatching orders from their homes, some are responsible for implementing operations, and others are responsible for supervision and management. According to the different division of labor, Han is responsible for paying a fixed salary and commission every month.

　　At present, nine suspects, including Han, have been criminally detained by Shenyang police according to law. The case is under further investigation.

　　Gathering idlers, hiding in residential areas, serving fraud gangs and earning ill-gotten gains.

　　On April 15, 2021, when Shenyang police analyzed the funds involved in fraud, they found that many defrauded funds were transferred through the bank card under the name of Lin (male, 23 years old). After further work, the police found that the bank cards of Gao (male, 32 years old) and Yan (female, 25 years old), who had close contacts with Lin, also involved many fraud cases, and then judged that the three were a money laundering criminal gang. Subsequently, through in-depth research, Shenyang police found out that the gang provided "money laundering" services for transferring fraudulent funds for fraudulent dens located overseas, with a daily capital flow of up to 2 million yuan. At the same time, after secret investigation, the police handling the case quickly found out the foothold of three people in a certain district of Tiexi District, Shenyang. At about 17: 00 on April 15, the police investigating the case arrested three people who were committing crimes on the spot, and seized 17 mobile phones, 6 computers, 11 mobile phone cards and 68 bank cards.

　　After the trial, the suspect Gao confessed that he had been engaged in telecommunication network fraud activities abroad. After returning to China in 2019, Gao used a communication software to continue to hook up with overseas fraud dens, and gathered Lin and his girlfriend Yan to buy bank cards, rented a house in a certain district of Kangping County to build a den, and provided "running points" for fraud gangs. The money laundering service involved nearly 90 million yuan, and three people illegally profited more than 1.8 million yuan from it.

　　At present, three suspects, including Gao, have been criminally detained by the Shenyang police according to law, and the case is under further investigation.

　　Card sellers act as accomplices of fraudsters, run away from customers and become executioners of "killing pig dishes"

　　In March 2021, Shenyang police received a clue from the Ministry of Public Security that two bank cards handled by Jiang Moumou (male, 37 years old) in a bank involved many telecom network fraud cases and quickly arrested Jiang Moumou. After the trial, Jiang confessed that he had handled the bank card many times and then introduced the criminal fact of selling the card to others through the "middleman".

　　Subsequently, the police found out the true identity of the "middleman" Zhang (male, 24 years old) through careful investigation, and arrested Zhang and Dong (male, 25 years old) and Li Moyang (male, 29 years old) who were plotting to buy bank cards with Zhang in a hotel in Tiexi District, Shenyang on April 12.

　　According to Zhang and others, the police seized five suspects, including Li Mohe (male, 25 years old) and Wei Moumou (male, 31 years old), in Tiexi District and Shenhe District of Shenyang on the same day, and seized 50 bank cards and 11 mobile phones.

　　After investigation, the criminal suspects Li Mohe and Wei Moumou have been engaged in criminal activities for a long time in overseas "killing pig plates" fraud dens. In November 2020, after they returned to China, they set up money laundering teams in Shenyang and Mudanjiang respectively, and developed Dong Mou and Li Moyang to buy bank cards for them. Li Mohe was responsible for contacting the overseas "killing pig plate" fraud dens, receiving money laundering tasks, and helping the fraud group transfer more than 40 million yuan in just a few months.

　　At present, eight suspects, including Li Mohe, have been criminally detained by the Shenyang police according to law, and the case is under further investigation.

　　The so-called "running points" means using bank accounts or payment accounts to help criminals transfer funds and earn commissions from them, resulting in a large number of fraudulent funds flowing abroad.

　　The police reminded: Don’t sell or lend personal bank accounts for short-term profits. Once they are used by criminals for fraud, online gambling or other illegal crimes, they will not only become "accomplices" of crimes, but will also be investigated for legal responsibility according to law, which may also lead to other people’s hard-earned money and pension money being wasted, causing irreparable property losses. If you go astray for temporary interests and take shortcuts to make money, you must bear legal responsibility. (CCTV reporter Li Chengze)

A survey ｜＂May Day＂ is not even a holiday, but only a day off. It turns out that there is still this stress.

On the afternoon of the 6th, the General Office of the State Council released the holiday arrangement for 2019, in which the "May 1" International Labor Day holiday did not take a day off, which caused concern.

The May Day holiday has been adjusted from 7 days of the original "Golden Week" to 3 days later, and this year there will be only one lonely day. This arrangement has caused the office workers to vomit, and some people think that there will be less "people and mountains" without the small holiday.

In the end, what is the arrangement of the "May 1" holiday in 2019? Is it a good thing or a bad thing to lose a small holiday? Let’s talk about it today.

Pay attention to the rest, only one day on Wednesday.

In fact, there is this set of vacation rules for holiday vacation arrangements, and it is also in line with the rules to put only one day on the May 1 holiday in 2019.

According to Yi Tanjun’s combing, the rules for the small holidays on New Year’s Day, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Labor Day, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival are as follows: the holidays are adjusted one week before and one week after the holiday, but if the holidays are not adjusted on Wednesdays, they will only be taken on the same day.

The May Day holiday in 2019 falls on a Wednesday, so there is only one day off. In fact, there was a precedent before, that is, New Year’s Day in 2014, which coincided with Wednesday and only took a day off without a break.

A small holiday is crowded with people, but shortening it is worry-free.

For many people, today’s small holiday has begun to make people love and hate. Love is because it gives you time to go out to play, and hate is the embarrassment of being crowded when you go out. Some people ridicule the Golden Week as "golden porridge".

It has to be said that the Golden Week holiday has played a very significant role in driving tourism revenue. Liberating the flow of people across the country in a period of time is just like releasing water, which brings cash flow wherever people flow.

According to the China Tourism Statistics Bulletin published every year, the number of domestic tourists reached 744 million in 2000, which more than quintupled in 2015 and exceeded 4 billion. In 2000, go on road trip was still an unreachable beauty in American movies for ordinary people, so rare that there was no statistical data. By 2015, the total number of people in go on road trip exceeded 2 billion.

Today, people go out to see the scenery, and the result is the scenery. When the historical mission of the Golden Week is achieved, the negative effects begin to be released, and people begin to complain. Simple adjustments, such as splitting the original May 1 Golden Week into three-day holidays such as Qingming Festival and Dragon Boat Festival, have not fundamentally achieved the diversion effect. On the contrary, most people have further concentrated their long-distance travel on the Eleventh Golden Week, which has aggravated the travel pressure during this period.

Moreover, the environment of some natural scenic spots has been destroyed, especially during the Golden Week, which is not conducive to the long-term sustainable development of tourism.

From the perspective of the whole social operation, some people think that the Golden Week is equivalent to the "interruption" of most production work. Now, in a world economy as big as China, if it stops working for 7 to 10 days, it will have a great impact and fluctuation on the normal operation of the economy and society, and even have an impact on the world.

In short, the golden week holiday model is like a double-edged sword, but for individuals, how can we meet the needs of rest?

The implementation of paid leave is uneven.

Paid vacation is a cliche. Every time we talk about the disadvantages of Golden Week, it is necessary to mention paid vacation. This concept is not strange to Chinese people.

This is equivalent to diverting the Golden Week, so that everyone can master their own travel plans without waiting for a legal holiday to go out and crowd.

Yi Tanjun noticed that at present, many large units in China have implemented the paid vacation system, but the implementation of paid vacation is uneven, and most private enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises have relatively poor implementation. Considering that small and medium-sized private enterprises have contributed about 80% of the employment, it can also be reflected that the implementation rate of paid vacation system is still significantly low. Many enterprises say that the Golden Week is the implementation of paid vacation system for them.

In fact, it should be noted that nowadays, Golden Week is not only an unpleasant travel experience, the service industry has to work overtime, order must be maintained, traffic must be diverted, and the unit will be shut down or its operation will be affected. I am afraid that the cost paid by the whole society will be higher than the paid vacation. Shenzhen Evening News once commented that "the implementation of paid vacation is not so much a welfare as a stop loss at present, and it only stops the annual internal friction of the outdated Golden Week".

Therefore, the solution is to establish the status of paid vacation in law, take administrative measures to ensure the implementation of paid vacation, and at the same time, the people spontaneously defend the rights and interests of paid vacation.

Finally, when it comes to the fact that there is only one day off on May Day next year, in fact, there are no fewer holidays, but they are not even closed. I think this is also quite good, so that the scenic spot can have a holiday and the workers can really enjoy a quiet.

What do you think?

[Experts say] Casualties have doubled in ten years. Experts suggest paying attention to road traffic injuries caused by electric bicycles.

Deng Xiao, Deputy Director, Injury Prevention and Mental Health Department, Center for Chronic Diseases, China CDC

　　Cctv news(Reporter Zhang Ke Yi designed Shi Tianxin): In recent years, great achievements have been made in road safety improvement in China, and the death rate of road traffic accidents has steadily decreased. At the same time, however, the number of casualties of electric bicycle riders is increasing against the trend. "Among the casualties of road traffic accidents in the country in 2019, one electric bicycle rider died in road traffic accidents every hour, and five electric bicycle riders were injured in road traffic accidents every hour." According to Deng Xiao, deputy director of the Injury Prevention and Control and Mental Health Office of the Center for Chronic Diseases of China CDC, behind this worrying data, the road safety problem is still "undercurrent".

　　One person died every hour, and electric bicycle casualties accounted for nearly 70% of non-motor vehicle casualties.

　　In recent years, great changes have taken place in the mode of transportation in China, and new means of transportation and modes of transportation have emerged one after another. Electric bicycles are favored by the general public because of their characteristics of speed, convenience and affordability. According to the data released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, in 2019, the output of electric bicycles in China was 27.077 million, and the social ownership was nearly 300 million, ranking first in the world. However, the number of road traffic accidents and casualties caused by electric bicycles is also rising sharply. Deng Xiao said that many electric bicycle owners are not insured. Any electric bicycle casualty accident is not only a disease burden, but also a very serious economic burden for the whole family, and the social burden caused by it cannot be underestimated.

　　In China, electric bicycles are classified as non-motor vehicles, and electric bicycle casualties account for nearly 70% of non-motor vehicle casualties. Deng Xiao said that the statistics of road traffic accidents in China show that in 2009-2019, there were 67,500 people killed and 331,900 injured in road traffic accidents nationwide. In 2019, compared with 2009, the number of electric bicycle casualties has more than doubled in ten years.

　　What major injuries will road traffic accidents bring to the parties? In the national road traffic accident data, craniocerebral injury is an important cause of death and injury. Deng Xiao said that 74.8% of traffic deaths were caused by craniocerebral injury, and 80% of seriously injured people were caused by craniocerebral injury. In the national injury monitoring system, 45% of the non-motor vehicle accidents in hospital outpatient and emergency treatment were head injuries, as well as lower limbs and trunk injuries. The main nature of injury is fracture, concussion, brain contusion and laceration and organ system damage.

　　Where are the road safety hazards of electric bicycles? Deng Xiao said that speeding of electric bicycles is a big problem. China’s "Road Traffic Safety Law" stipulates that electric bicycles should travel in non-motor vehicle lanes, and the speed should not exceed 15 km/h. According to the new national standard, the design speed of electric bicycles should not exceed 25 km/h, but the actual situation is not optimistic. If the electric bicycle is speeding, the collision speed is superimposed after it collides with the car. This kind of collision does great harm to the human body in a short time and is often the main cause of death accidents and personal injuries.

　　Running a red light, going backwards, carrying people illegally, riding a bicycle and making phone calls are also the main risk factors that lead to traffic accidents and even casualties of electric bicycle riders. In addition, we often talk about the "blind spot" problem, which is often seen in electric bicycle accidents. In layman’s terms, the rider is not "seen" or the rider himself is "invisible". For example, Deng Xiao said, for example, in the so-called "ghost probe" accident, the cyclist of electric bicycle casually crosses the road from the slow-moving motor vehicle, while the driver of the fast-moving motor vehicle on the other side may not be able to see it, or it is too late to stop the car when he sees it, resulting in a very serious accident.

　　Riding an electric bicycle illegally becomes a "killer" for children.

　　Besides cyclists, people who ride electric bicycles can’t be ignored, especially children who ride electric bicycles. Deng Xiao said that among children and adolescents aged 0-19 in China, the first cause of death is not infectious diseases or chronic diseases, but injuries. Among them, road traffic injury is an important one. On average, 10 children (0-18 years old) die from road traffic accidents every day, and 53 children are injured by road traffic accidents.

　　"The main modes of transportation for road traffic casualties among younger children are walking, riding private cars and motorcycles, while older children are riding motorcycles and driving electric bicycles." Deng Xiao introduced that China stipulates that motorcycles can be driven at the age of 18 and electric bicycles can be driven at the age of 16. However, among teenagers aged 12-17, the number of casualties related to driving motorcycles and driving electric bicycles is very large, and there are a large number of illegal riding behaviors, which need our attention.

　　According to the data of the national injury monitoring system, among the injury cases in the outpatient and emergency departments of hospitals, children’s road traffic injuries are the same as the data obtained by the public security traffic control department, with more boys than girls, and the age is concentrated in older children. Deng Xiao said that illegal motor vehicles are the main cause of road traffic accidents among children. Children’s road traffic accidents occur frequently in winter and summer vacations, rest days and school hours. Children’s road traffic accidents are more likely to occur on roads lacking protective facilities. The road traffic modes of the perpetrators are mainly driving minibuses, motorcycles and electric bicycles.

　　Experts say these points are very important to prevent road traffic injuries caused by electric bicycles.

　　How to effectively prevent road traffic injuries of electric bicycles? Deng Xiao said that the first thing to choose is a safe and standard electric bicycle. In 2019, electric bicycles came out with a new national standard, and the safety of vehicles is the starting point for preventing and reducing injuries. Even electric bicycles that meet the national standard should be checked for vehicle safety before going on the road, including vehicle braking system, lights and horns.

　　The second is the safe road. "A very effective measure to reduce non-motor vehicle casualties is the separation of machines and vehicles, so that traffic users at different speeds can be separated." Deng Xiao said.

　　With a safe car and a safe road, the following is the magic weapon in the hands of every electric bicycle user — — Safe rider, safe riding behavior.

　　Deng Xiao suggested that users of electric bicycles should do the following: don’t overspeed, wear helmets, obey traffic rules, and avoid danger when they know it. The advocacy of the theme of "One Helmet and One Belt" is also the proper meaning in the title. The use of effective protective tools can greatly reduce the death rate of road traffic accidents. Take the helmet as an example. After a road traffic collision, the severity of the injury largely depends on whether or not to wear a safety helmet with anti-collision performance. Data show that bicycle safety helmets can reduce 63% head injuries and 88% head injuries. Drivers of two-wheeled motor vehicles who don’t wear safety helmets have three times the risk of head injuries as those who wear helmets. "Wearing a helmet is a very important protective measure. The laws of many developed countries stipulate that riding a bicycle must also wear a safety helmet. I also hope that the relevant laws and regulations on the use of electric bicycle helmets can be introduced as soon as possible at the national level. " Deng Xiao said.

　　Finally, whether the injured can get the right rescue and medical treatment at the first time after the accident is also the key factor to determine the life and death of the injured. "We saw in the hospital monitoring data that only 33% of children went to the hospital within one hour after the road traffic injury, which shows that the rescue and treatment after the accident need to be further strengthened." Deng Xiao said. (Proofread Song Chunyan)
