In a corner of the National Museum of Sri Lanka, an ancient monument inscribed with Chinese characters, Tamil and Persian stands quietly.

　　It was Zheng He, a navigator from China, who brought this stone tablet to Sri Lanka. At the beginning of the 15th century, Zheng He led "tens of thousands of people in more than 100 giant ships" and arrived here for several months to exchange and barter with local people, and presented stone tablets as a gesture of friendship.

　　In 2013, after the Chairman of the Supreme Leader proposed to jointly build the Belt and Road Initiative, Sri Lanka was the first country to support it in the form of a government statement.

　　The turn of the country lies in the blind date between the people. On September 7, 2013, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader pointed out in his speech in Kazakhstan that to do a good job in cooperation in the fields of policies, facilities, trade and capital, "we must get the support of people from all countries, strengthen people’s friendly exchanges, enhance mutual understanding and traditional friendship, and lay a solid public opinion foundation and social foundation for regional cooperation."

　　People’s blind date lies in empathy. People’s hearts are connected, which is the most basic, solid and lasting interconnection. In the past 10 years, one project has blossomed in the country of building the "Belt and Road", which has brought the hearts of people of all countries closer.

　　"Small but beautiful" livelihood project

　　"TV is like another pair of my eyes, which makes me see the outside world at once. It turns out that the world is so big and there are so many interesting things!" A 9-year-old Nigerian boy said. Thanks to China’s "Universal Village Access" project, many African villagers have taken a fancy to digital TV with stable signal and rich content.

　　The "Universal Village Access" project aims to connect 10,000 villages in Africa with satellite digital TV signals. It is a livelihood project in the plan to strengthen China-Africa humanities cooperation proposed by the Chairman of the Supreme Leader at the Johannesburg Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation in 2015.

　　△ In July, 2023, children of Picoco Village School in maputo province stood in front of a house equipped with a satellite TV receiving antenna aided by China.

　　"People’s livelihood project is an important way to quickly improve the sense of gain of the people who build a country together, and it is immediate." On November 19, 2021, at the third symposium on the construction of the Belt and Road, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that "small and beautiful projects directly affect the people. In the future, we should make small and beautiful projects a priority for foreign cooperation, strengthen overall planning, give full play to the role of foreign aid funds, and form more projects that are grounded and gather people’s hearts. "

　　In Cambodia, China helped 16 provinces to build more than 1,800 deep wells and nearly 130 community ponds, effectively solving the shortage of drinking water sources and water sanitation problems of local rural residents;

　　In Samoa, a Pacific island country, China’s agricultural technical assistance project aided the construction of comprehensive demonstration farms and other agricultural extension systems, and accumulated tens of thousands of trainings;

　　In Zambia, solar mills provide people with enough corn flour to increase the added value of local agricultural products;

　　In Papua New Guinea, fungus grass has become the local rich grass … …

　　△ On December 17th, 2020, in East Highland Province, Papua New Guinea, local people who participated in the 9th training course of China’s technical project of assisting Papua New Guinea’s grass and upland rice showed their certificates of completion.

　　The projects of "small but beautiful" and "practical and beneficial" have been implemented steadily, helping the people of the country to increase their income and improve their lives. For the people who build the country together, the "Belt and Road" proposed by China is concrete and tangible — — It is water and electricity, roads and bridges, schools and hospitals, and it is a rich salary and a promising tomorrow.

　　"Now, you can drive to different parts of Uganda on asphalt roads, and most of these roads are built by China enterprises." Richard Taodewang, general secretary of Uganda’s ruling National Resistance Movement, said that the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" has promoted the connectivity and development of the country and has been welcomed by local people. This is the attraction of the joint construction of the "Belt and Road".

　　Build a monument of friendship

　　On the eve of International Children’s Day on June 1st this year, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader wrote back to Alifa Qin, a Bangladeshi child, encouraging her to study hard, pursue her dreams and inherit the traditional friendship between China and Bangladesh.

　　"Chin", which means "China" in Mongolian, has a touching story behind the name.

　　Arifa Qin was born in 2010. When she was born, her mother Janet suffered dystocia because of severe heart disease, and her life was dying for a time. At that time, it was the first time that China Navy’s hospital ship "Square Boat" carried out the "harmonious mission" in Bangladesh. After receiving help, the hospital ship rushed to the local hospital at the first time.

　　After two hours of surgery, Janet finally gave birth to a baby girl. Looking at his daughter, who weighs only 3 kg, and his wife, who has just been pulled back from death, the child’s father specially named his daughter Qin "Chin" to express his gratitude to the soldiers in China. He said that his daughter should remember China and her savior.

△ On August 22nd, 2013, Arifa Qin was with the nurse from China who had taken care of her in 2010.

　　"Qin’s personal experience in the letter is a vivid portrayal of China-Bangladesh friendship." In his reply to Qin, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader said, "China and Bangladeshi people have been good neighbors and friends since ancient times, and have a history of friendly exchanges stretching back thousands of years."

　　Millennium friendship has been passed down from generation to generation, and pragmatic cooperation has been promoted step by step.

　　In October 2016, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader made a historic visit to Bangladesh, and China-Bangladesh relations were upgraded to a strategic partnership. Bangladesh is the first country in South Asia to sign a memorandum of understanding with China to jointly build the Belt and Road Initiative.

　　Today, in the face of endless global challenges, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader has a profound insight: "I propose to build a community of human destiny and propose to build together ‘ Belt and Road ’ It is to repeatedly think about how countries around the world should achieve mutual cooperation, sharing, harmony without differences, and win-win cooperation in diverse interests and demands. "

　　In Pakistan, Gwadar Port is the flagship project of China-Pakistan "Belt and Road" cooperation and a new milestone of China-Pakistan friendship in the 21st century. At present, projects such as Gwadar Port Free Zone and China-Pakistan Friendship Hospital have been completed or under construction. The solar power generation system and equipment donated by China to Gwadar people have promoted local economic and social development.

△ Gwadar Port is printed on Pakistani banknotes with a denomination of 5 rupees.

　　"Where the project is built, a monument of friendship will be built there", in December 2018, when the Chairman of the Supreme Leader visited Panama for the first time, he exclaimed. Today, large-scale projects full of China elements, such as the Fourth Panama Canal Bridge and Panama National Convention and Exhibition Center, have become local landmarks, and China commodities are increasingly integrated into people’s daily lives. Eddie Tabiro, an expert on financial strategy of Panama Canal Authority, said with emotion: "‘ Belt and Road ’ Cooperation is not who conquers who, but mutual help between friends. "

　　Get to know each other in the encounter, work together in the mutual understanding, and build the "Belt and Road". People are hand in hand and jointly build a beautiful home.

　　Humanistic exchange of mutual learning and learning

　　At the end of September this year, Beijing Capital International Airport welcomed more than 30 students from Thailand. In the next year, these students will enter Tianjin Bohai Vocational and Technical College to study vocational education courses in China.

　　Letting Thai students go to China to receive vocational education in China is the first cooperation between Tianjin Bohai Vocational and Technical College and Thailand Dacheng Technical College after the initiative of jointly building the Belt and Road Initiative, named after Luban, a famous craftsman in ancient China.

　　There is no Luban in Luban Workshop, but there are more than 70 professional skills courses such as industrial robots, new energy and Internet of Things. In September 2018, the Chairman of the Supreme Leader solemnly announced at the Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation that China would "set up 10 Luban workshops in Africa to provide vocational skills training for African youth".

△ Djibouti Luban Workshop

　　Osman, a young man from Djibouti, had a "railway dream" since he was a child. I heard that Luban Workshop in Djibouti is recruiting students majoring in railway, and he will sign up immediately. "My family condition is particularly bad. Can I be admitted to Luban Workshop?" During the interview, Osman expressed his concern. The interviewer in China said, "I believe you. If you work hard, you can also become the Luban of Djibouti." After layers of selection, Osman became one of the first batch of 24 freshmen and will directly participate in the construction of Yaji Railway in the future.

　　"Really want to build ‘ Belt and Road ’ It is necessary to form a humanistic pattern of mutual appreciation, mutual understanding and mutual respect among the people along the route. " General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said.

　　Promote the "Belt and Road" cultural and tourism exchanges, implement the "Cultural Silk Road" plan, establish an international alliance of theaters, museums, art festivals, libraries and art galleries along the Silk Road, actively co-organize art festivals, film festivals, music festivals, cultural relics exhibitions, book exhibitions and other activities with the co-construction countries, cooperate in the creation and mutual translation and broadcasting of excellent books, radio, film and television, and jointly implement the joint archaeological and cultural relics restoration project & HELIP; … In the past 10 years, the co-construction countries have extensively carried out cultural tourism cooperation, educational exchanges, cooperation between media and think tanks, and people-to-people exchanges, and promoted mutual learning and cultural integration and innovation, forming a pattern of people-to-people exchanges with multiple interactions and flowers blooming.

△ On October 6, 2023, diplomatic envoys from many countries in Kenya watched a cultural performance at Nairobi Station of Monnet Railway in Nairobi, Kenya.

　　Throughout the ten years since the "Belt and Road Initiative" was jointly established, China and the co-construction countries have written many stories of "casting me a peach and rewarding me with Qiong Yao". This is the inheritance of traditional virtues and the cherish of friendship by the Chinese nation for thousands of years.

　　This kind of treasure has nothing to do with distance — — No matter how far apart, as long as we bravely take the first step and stick to the opposite direction, we can walk out of a road of meeting and knowing each other and developing together, and move towards a happy, peaceful, harmonious and beautiful distance.

　　This kind of treasure is related to people’s hearts — — "We should all have the belief that people of all countries should have a better future and build together ‘ Belt and Road ’ It will definitely usher in a better world. "

　　There is a "road" between people.

Spring has come, and "allergic star people" are getting worse.

Some people say, chlorine ray is in his hand, don’t panic!

However …

How did this get on the hot search?

The antihistamine represented by loratadine is a "life-saving medicine" for many allergic people.

So, many people rely on antihistamines for a long time, will there be side effects? What are the precautions?

Who is the "life-saving medicine" chlorine ray?

Loratadine is a commonly used drug to relieve allergic symptoms and one of the representative drugs of antihistamines.

In April and May every year, willow flocks are high, and many people will take loratadine with them in order to relieve allergic symptoms.

Although it is often used, many people don’t know how it works.

This is going to start with "what is the allergy?"

Generally speaking, allergy means that the immune system overreacts and misjudges substances from outside as "harmful substances".

At this time, the immune system will release a substance called "histamine", which will combine with histamine receptors in the body.

Therefore, patients will have respiratory tract, eyes, skin and other symptoms at the same time or successively.

H1 antihistamines represented by loratadine and cetirizine, as the name implies, are drugs that can prevent histamine from binding to its receptor, so that histamine cannot play its role.

Therefore, after taking antihistamines, symptoms such as itchy skin and sneezing will be quickly relieved. Therefore, antihistamines are called "life-saving drugs" by many allergic people.

Can this medicine be taken for a long time?

Some people regard loratadine as a "life-saving artifact all year round". But are there any side effects from long-term use of antihistamines?

In fact, loratadine can not eradicate allergens, and long-term use may lead to some adverse reactions.

side effect

First-generation antihistamines (such as diphenhydramine and bromophenamine) can cause adverse reactions such as drowsiness, fatigue and dizziness. It has anticholinergic effect, which may cause blurred vision, dry eyes, nose and mouth, urinary retention, constipation, etc. The elderly and children should use it with caution.

The second generation antihistamines (such as loratadine and cetirizine) have weak sedative effect, are not easy to cause drowsiness, and have high safety; There is no obvious anticholinergic adverse reaction, so it has no antitussive function.

Third-generation antihistamines (such as levocetirizine hydrochloride and desloratadine) have relatively strong antiallergic effect and relatively few side effects, and some drugs can be used for pregnant and lactating women and children.

Therefore, if you need to take such drugs for a long time, it is recommended to consult a doctor. The following is a summary of medication for reference.

1. Choose drugs carefully

Antihistamines are only suitable for use under the guidance of a doctor to relieve the symptoms caused by allergic diseases. Pregnant and lactating women, as well as the elderly and children, should be cautious when using drugs.

2. Pay attention to the time and dosage of medication.

Even loratadine and cetirizine, which are considered very safe in clinic, should not be taken continuously for more than one month. Because of the individual differences in medication, if the symptoms are not improved, the dosage of the drug should not be increased without authorization, and other drugs or treatment methods should be selected under the guidance of a doctor.

Step 3 don’t drink

Do not drink alcohol while taking antihistamines, otherwise it will increase the burden on the liver and inhibit the central nervous system.

4. Don’t take it before skin test.

Loratadine can prevent or reduce the positive reaction of skin test and affect the results.

5. Beware of the "chain reaction" of drugs

Antifungal drugs and macrolide antibiotics can increase the content of loratadine in blood, and it is easy to aggravate the adverse reactions when combined with antihistamines.

6. Patients with heart disease should pay attention to it

In the case of rational drug use, antihistamines have very little hepatorenal toxicity, but literature shows that some first-generation and second-generation antihistamines may have potential cardiotoxicity. Although rare, people who have heart disease or cardiovascular risk should pay attention when using antihistamines for a long time.

What else can I do to deal with allergies?

In addition to using antihistamines, many "senior patients" said that the best way to deal with it is to wear a mask! Wear long sleeves!

"Allergic star people" can do the following things in their daily life.

1. Protect yourself when going out: Wear a mask, and you can wear a thin coat for fear of allergies in bare arms. When going out, the clothes are inevitably stained with allergens such as pollen and dust outside. I suggest you wash your hair, take a shower and change your clothes when you get home.

2. Clean the nasal cavity every day: people with allergic rhinitis or sensitive to pollen and catkins should clean the nasal cavity with normal saline 2-3 times a day.

3. Do a good job in indoor cleaning: Usually, you can use high-temperature steam cleaning products or mite removal instruments to wash sheets, quilt covers and pillowcases more often.

4. Regular physical exercise: Moderate exercise will stimulate the improvement of immunity, but if the exercise load is too large, it will also reduce immunity, so physical exercise must be gradual, persistent and adequate.

There are always a few allergic people around everyone. Hurry up and forward it to someone you care about ~

The meeting was strongly supported by the National Center for Mathematics and Interdisciplinary Sciences, the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Academician Bureau of China Academy of Sciences.

　　As an extremely precious epic text in the treasure house of Chinese culture and even the world culture, Gesar has experienced the development process from the folk oral narrative tradition spread on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau for thousands of years, to the national folk culture under the national discourse system, and then to the intangible cultural heritage of mankind in the international perspective, which is a great contribution of the Chinese nation to human civilization.

　　Historically, the story of the hero Gesar has been spread among Tibetans, Mongolians, Naxi, Yugur, Tu and other ethnic groups. They localized the story and formed a heroic epic that all ethnic groups highly admire. As a result, "Gesar" originated in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and then spread to all ethnic groups and regions and even to the surrounding areas in cross-border and cross-cultural contexts. It has become a cultural treasure that witnessed the long-term exchanges and exchanges between Tibetans and other ethnic groups, and has also become an important cultural heritage shared by China and countries and regions along the Belt and Road Initiative.

　　Since 1950s, our government has included the collection and arrangement of Gesar in the national cultural protection work sequence, which can be said to give it a "second life". On this basis, since the beginning of this century, the country has vigorously advocated and practiced the concept of intangible cultural heritage protection, which has further protected, inherited and developed Gesar, and opened a new connection and dialogue with the world based on the local conditions.

　　Grand narrative tradition

　　As a masterpiece of folk literature, Gesar is a grand narrative epic created by the Tibetan people and still in live transmission, representing the highest achievement of ancient Tibetan folk culture. It tells the story of King Gelsall, a hero, who devoted himself to saving the living beings, leading the "Lingguo" tribe to subdue demons, restrain the strong and help the weak, and promote people to live in harmony and build a beautiful home. It comprehensively reflects the ancient features of history, society, religion, customs, morality and culture of Tibetans and other ethnic groups, and is an important carrier of local knowledge, ethnic memory, folk wisdom and mother tongue expression.

　　Like other national epics and folk literature works, Gesar has two basic ways of dissemination: first, it is preserved and disseminated by manuscripts and woodcuts; Second, it is passed on by the people, especially the excellent inheritors. The successor of Gesar, the rapper, is called "Zhongken" and "Zhongwow" in Tibetan, which means the storyteller. It is by virtue of the outstanding oral artistic talents of "Zhongken" and "Zhongwa" from generation to generation that Gesar has been passed down for thousands of years in the vast plateau agricultural and pastoral areas, spread widely among the people, and even become a part of their daily lives.

　　When folk artists sing, they often sum up the main content of Gesar in three sentences: "The heaven above sent envoys to earth, and there were various disputes in the middle world, and the hell below completed the karma." It can be seen that the whole epic consists of three parts: heroes descending to earth, surrendering demons and stabilizing the world. Its scale is generally described by more than 1 million lines, more than 20 million words and more than 170 texts in academic circles. It is well-deserved to be one of live transmission’s epics with the longest length and the largest scale in the world, and it can be called the "world epic crown". As far as the system is concerned, in fact, these are only approximate figures, because Gesar is a living epic, and its length and connotation are constantly breaking through with the improvisation of singers. Gesar, as we see it today, is a grand narrative tradition with vast text content, complex discourse structure, diverse genre forms and numerous ways of inheritance, which is spread across nationalities, borders and cultural circles.

　　This "encyclopedic" great epic also witnessed the exchanges and cultural creativity of all ethnic groups in China. It is not only the source of inspiration for the creation of traditional folk art such as Thangka, Tibetan opera and singing, but also the source of modern art such as literature, film and television, dance, music and fine arts, which has greatly promoted the prosperity and development of various literary and artistic forms. In the process of the spread of Gesar, the languages, religious beliefs and values of all ethnic groups have had a profound impact on it. At the same time, it has continuously absorbed the cultures of all ethnic groups and enriched its own content and connotation.

　　Looking back at the beginning of the formation of Gesar, like many folk stories, it seems to be a story born out of history (with history as its theme) and spread among the people in the form of legend. Then, how did this legendary, scaly-clawed folk story develop into a grand narrative work and then become a spectacular narrative tradition?

　　The epic text of Gesar consists of three different genres, namely, historical genre, mythical genre and artistic genre. Among them, historical genre is the basis of epic genre, but in the later oral context, it constantly experienced the process of "de-historicization", and gradually merged into mythical and artistic images, and finally built an "epic building". Most of the other epics in the world originated from real history or took history as the background. Comparing the texts of Gesar in different times, we will find that the early texts are close to the objective reality, although they are legendary; Later texts have a strong mythical color; However, the text produced in recent years has a strong Buddhist color, which has generally gone through three stages: historical experience (original historical narrative), historical myth and then myth art. In China, it is not uncommon for myths to be historicized. As far as Tibetans are concerned, the history before the period of Tubo Songzan Gambo in the 7th century A.D. can be regarded as oral mythical history to some extent. This also shows that only when history is mythologized can it spread fire for the birth of epic.

　　According to the literature, Gesar is a historical figure. He was born in the first half of the 11th century in a tribe called Lingguo on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, that is, the dege county-Ezhi area in Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province. His real life scene before his death is described in detail in the 14th century’s History of the Lang Family. The map of the Tang Dynasty in the Atlas of Chinese History, edited by Mr. Tan Qixiang, clearly marked the location of "Ling", indicating that the tribe was already famous at that time. Thus, Gesar, as a historical figure with flesh and blood, laid the foundation for the text of Gesar. Subsequently, from the original historical narrative to the mythical narrative, Gesar changed from man to god, and the historical text gradually evolved into an epic text.

　　In this process, many important events in Tibetan history formed intertextual relations with Gesar, which became important materials for molding epic texts. From a macro point of view, the time and space view of the whole epic refers to the historical events, social events, folk traditions, military achievements, etc. of Tibetans moving from a scattered tribal society to a unified Tubo society. With the progress of cross-culture, Gesar borrowed many concepts and terms referring to social and cultural events in Tibetan history. For example, taking "Zong" (the county-level administrative organization in ancient Tibet) as the basic narrative unit, it is often used to describe and divide the units of epic stories with 18 major sects, 18 middle sects, 18 minor sects or 64 minor sects. In addition, it was also integrated into many historical events at that time, including the dispute between Buddhism and benzene, the mutual struggle between Tibetan local forces in the Tubo period and the post-Honghu period, etc. However, this intertextuality uses mythical and artistic methods. Although the mythical text has not yet reached the level of a masterpiece, the story model and basic structure have been formed, and there have been chapters such as Birth, Horse Racing as King, Huoling War, Jiangling War, Menling and Moling. In this regard, scholar Yang Yi put forward: "In a long period of time, due to the nurturing of various cultural factors and the genius creation of the artist’s mind and soul, (Gesar) has been sprouted from a limited number of original works, full of vitality, expanded into a department, and was born outside the department. Only by subduing the evil part, it has derived 18 large pieces and 18 small pieces, and absorbed the rich wisdom of the nation.Finally, it is more than 100 in length. "

　　Gesar learned from and absorbed Buddhist culture in the early stage of its gestation and birth, and was able to turn a chrysalis into a butterfly, with a gorgeous turn from a fairy tale to a grand narrative. Although the Buddhist thought was gradually strengthened in the later Gesar text, its artistic essence never changed. Buddhism, as an artistic means, has created the evolution process of Gesar from perceptual to rational, from the experience level to the concept level, which has played an important role in the leap from myth to art and provided a philosophical basis for the transition from metaphor to symbol level. No matter in the stage of historical myth or mythological art, the evolution of Gesar’s text takes artistic imagination as the starting point and poetic thinking as the logical origin of epic narration, which promotes the formation of the core values and concepts recognized by all ethnic groups in China, such as the feelings of home and country, the way to help the world, equality, freedom and justice.

　　It is precisely because of its lofty characteristics and grand thoughts that the epic Gesar can spread and develop across regions, nationalities, borders and cultures. In the 11th and 12th centuries, after the formation of the hinterland of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau with the Three Rivers as the core, Gesar continued to radiate outward, forming a "core area" and a "radiation area" at the regional and geographical levels, as well as a huge epic spread belt across the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the Mongolian Plateau and the Pamirs, which became an important part of the multi-ethnic cultural circle in the Himalayas. With the footsteps of pilgrims and business travelers on the ancient tea-horse road, with the forgetfulness of rappers, especially with the continuous expansion and deepening of exchanges and exchanges between various ethnic groups, Gesar has gradually spread to more and further places from the junction of Tibet, Sichuan, Qinghai, Gansu and other provinces and regions in China.

　　Nowadays, Gesar is widely spread and influential among Tibetan, Mongolian, Tu, Yugu, Dongxiang, Sala, Naxi, Qiang, Menba, Luoba, Pumi, Bai, Dulong and Lisu in seven provinces and regions. In addition, Nepal, Bhutan, India, Pakistan, Mongolia, Russia and other countries and regions have also spread. In other words, it has formed an international circulation belt along the "Belt and Road", becoming a beautiful landscape in the history of world cultural exchange and epic territory, and an important witness to the exchange and mutual learning of human civilization and cultural creativity.

　　People’s Daily Online, Beijing, December 2 (Reporter Qiao Yeqiong) The National Health and Wellness Commission held a press conference today to introduce the prevention and treatment of respiratory diseases in winter and answer questions from reporters.

　　At the meeting, a reporter asked that vaccines played a key role in the prevention and control of influenza. At present, influenza has entered the high season. Is it too late to vaccinate now?

　　Wang Dayan, director of the National Influenza Center of the Institute of Virology, China CDC, said that influenza, COVID-19 and pneumococcal infection all have corresponding types of vaccines. Influenza vaccines have been used all over the world and in China for decades. Scientific research and vaccination practice have fully proved that influenza vaccines are safe, effective and mature. Influenza vaccination can effectively reduce infection, even if it is infected, it can also reduce the incidence, and even if it is infected, it can also reduce the severity of the disease.

　　"At present, it is the high season of influenza. It is still effective to vaccinate people who have not been vaccinated with influenza before. It is recommended that you get the flu vaccine as soon as possible." In particular, Wang Dayan pointed out that people over 6 months can be vaccinated with influenza, especially for high-risk people such as children, the elderly and patients with chronic diseases. After being infected with influenza, the risk of severe illness is higher. Vaccination with influenza can effectively reduce the risk of developing into severe illness and death. I hope everyone will actively vaccinate.

　　Wang Dayan said that practice at home and abroad has proved that the use of vaccines is one of the most economical and effective preventive measures, and vaccines are safe. As long as they are vaccinated in professional institutions as required, they can have good results, especially for the elderly and children, and they should actively vaccinate against influenza to ensure a normal pace of life and study.

Boyce was only 10 years old when Larry Nassar, a former team doctor of the American national gymnastics team, first put his hand into his gymnastics suit.

Nassar broke Boyce’s right leg to his side, which seemed to help her relieve the muscle pain from long-term practice. This is a normal stretching movement after gymnastics, but under the disguise of this movement, Nassar has violated her again and again.

Six years later, when Boyce got up the courage to go into the room of gymnastics coach klages and expose the evil deeds of team doctor Nassar, she got the response: "I have known Nassar for many years, and he would never do anything’ inappropriate’." Klages also told her: "If you go to the police, there will be very serious consequences waiting for you and Nassar."

Boyce, 16, was frightened by klages’s words. She didn’t want anyone to get into trouble. After returning home, she cried in the bathroom and secretly decided never to tell anyone about it again.

It was the summer of 1997, and Boyce didn’t know that he was just one of many victims, and everything was just beginning-in the next 20 years, Nassar harassed and molested more than 300 underage gymnasts under the cover of being the team doctor of the American national gymnastics team. The place where he committed sexual assault spanned many countries, from the venue of the London Olympic Games in 2012, the gymnastics training ground in Texas, USA, to the gymnastics conference in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

The sexual assault scandal of "Devil" team doctor Nassar is also considered as the most serious sexual abuse scandal in American sports history.

Behind this case, it is about the experience of more than 300 girls intertwined with pain and courage, and it is also their legal struggle with the FBI and the American Gymnastics Association for several years.

Feel shame and fear

Born in 1963, Nassar wears glasses, is a bit bookish, looks gentle and kind, and is friendly to neighbors and colleagues on weekdays. At the age of 15, Nassar began his coaching career in the high school women’s gymnastics team.

In 1981, he was admitted to the kinematics major of Michigan State University, where he worked as a team doctor for the university gymnastics team while studying. In 1997, Nassar, who received a doctor’s degree in medicine, officially took up his post at Michigan State University, and later served as the team doctor of the American women’s gymnastics team in five Olympic Games.

In the first few years as a team doctor, Nassar gained an excellent reputation among athletes and parents with his affinity, professional knowledge and enthusiastic attitude.

As a team doctor, Nassar is well aware of the injuries of athletes, and also understands how eager the injured athletes are to get back on the field. He often gives these girls "lessons" or "shares" the latest kinematics research results, so that these girls believe that there is nothing he can’t cure.

Nassar often tells these girls’ parents: "I will make your daughters great gymnasts, because they are destined to do so." Slowly, these girls and their parents think that Nassar is really lucky, because he always seems to be able to cure the girls’ injuries and make them back in the game.

Before those things happened, these girls felt it was an honor to be treated personally by Nassar or to be treated well by him.

In 1990, when Trina, a 9-year-old girl, was invited by Nassar to give her "extra tutoring" at home because of her frequent falling off bars, her first feeling was excitement and pride. However, this feeling was soon replaced by shame and fear. Nassar first talked to her about life and gymnastics in a relaxed tone, and then attacked her with his bare hands without changing his tone and rhythm at all.

At first, Trina didn’t know what this fear really meant. It was not until the late 1990s that another gymnast told Trina about her experience that Trina realized. According to Trina’s lawyer’s estimate, Nassar violated her 856 times.

A media reporter said that he had seen a video of Nassar’s treatment for girls in an interview. In the video, Nassar usually used his bare hands to invade their privacy before massaging the girls.

Many girls didn’t know what Nassar was doing at that time, only that it was the action he often did before treatment. A victim said in an interview: "I can’t tell what it feels like, only that it hurts there." And when they grow up, this sense of shame and pain will follow them like a flashback, and they will know that they are not the only ones who have experienced this.

These gymnastics girls once gained self-confidence on the field, but they were hurt again and again by a person who should have helped them to play better. In their minds, the beautiful "gymnastics dream" has also become synonymous with shame and fear.

Why are evil deeds covered up?

The time of committing the crime spanned 20 years, with more than 300 victims. Why has Nassar’s behavior never been effectively disposed of and exposed?

In fact, as early as July 2015, the FBI started an investigation because gymnast Maggie reported Nassar’s sexual abuse to the American Gymnastics Bureau. Although three victims were willing to come forward to assist in the investigation, the FBI only questioned one victim and did not record the conversation in the investigation report.

It was not until August 2016 that the Indianapolis Star published a series of in-depth reports exposing Nassar’s evil deeds and caused widespread concern in the United States that the three victims formally sued Nassar.

On November 22, 2016, Nassar was charged with three first-degree sexual crimes in Ingham County, Michigan. However, the state prosecutor said that "this is just the tip of the iceberg" and at least 50 victims filed sexual abuse charges against him.

As Nassar’s atrocities are constantly exposed, new victims come forward to accuse him every year. On January 10, 2017, another 18 victims filed federal lawsuits against Nassar, Michigan State University and the American Gymnastics Bureau.

On January 24, 2018, Nassar pleaded guilty to allegations of sexual assault against minors in a Michigan court and was sentenced to 40 to 175 years in prison. At least 250 victims appeared in the seven-day trial, and 156 victims took the stand.

In court, Judge Rosemary Aquilina said to Nassar, "I just signed your death notice."

Looking back, these young girls once had "self-help" behavior. They once told their parents, gymnastics coaches, school teachers and psychologists about their experiences, but they were deceived again and again by Nassar’s performances and lies.

They have also reported to the American Gymnastics Bureau, Michigan State University police, university administrators and the Michigan City Police Department again and again, but what awaits them is disappointment and injury again and again.

This is puzzling: why can Nassar’s evil deeds be covered up? How did American gymnastics allow hundreds of underage girls to receive Nassar’s so-called "treatment" without supervision? How on earth is such sexual violence allowed to happen?

On the one hand, Nassar is an extremely good performer. A victim once recalled in an interview with new york Magazine: "When he put his hand into my shorts, I really thought he was giving me a proper medical diagnosis. After all, I was only a 13-year-old rookie player, and he was the team doctor of the Olympic gymnastics team, not to mention my father was in the room."

This is also one of Nassar’s usual strategies: he will ask a parent to be present during his treatment, but he will deliberately block their sight. But when he put his hand into these little girls’ bodies, the parents standing by thought that Nassar was treating their children well.

These little girls often realize that they have been violated after many years, because Nassar always makes all violations reasonable and normal. When they feel painful and uncomfortable, they can only subconsciously doubt themselves.

On the other hand, according to the investigation of the FBI, there has always been a tradition in American gymnastics to cover up or downplay sexual assault complaints. They have always been at the expense of athletes’ physical and mental health, just to protect the reputation of American gymnastics.

According to the contents of the trial, several victims said that they had reported Nassar’s sexual abuse to the authorities of different systems, including the American Gymnastics Bureau, Michigan State University, and the American Olympic and Paralympic Association, but all of them were ignored without exception.

In the context of the commercialization of professional sports in the United States, once the issue of money and reputation is involved, the American Gymnastics Bureau is silent. They are worried that once gymnasts expose Nassar’s evil deeds to the public, the commercial value of these gymnasts will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, the American Gymnastics Bureau not only failed to report the clues of sexual assault and abuse to the state procuratorate as required by law, but also asked these gymnasts to sign a confidentiality agreement.

The US Gymnastics Bureau and the US Federal Bureau of Investigation have been accused by the victim of creating a convenient environment for Nassar for several years and doing their best to help him escape legal and moral responsibilities. In addition, they turned a blind eye to several complaints and reports submitted by the victims, thus providing a hotbed for Nassar’s atrocities.

Sexual assault is always an exercise in power relations, and the unequal status and power of senior team doctors and newcomers make it more difficult for them to resist. To some extent, Nassar’s sexual assault case also reveals the evil under the glacier in American gymnastics: behind the pursuit of higher, faster and stronger, how the pain of athletes is ignored, and how such abuse and infringement have been concealed for so many years.

Four top Olympic athletes stood on the witness stand.

Rachel, a 33-year-old former gymnast and current lawyer, is the first victim to publicly expose Nassar’s sexual assault, harassment and abuse of underage girls and even young girls in the name of treatment.

In 2018, Rachel said at the trial: "When you want to fight criminals protected by two extremely powerful systems, an anonymous voice is not enough. You must make a sound in public, and you can’t back down. We all gathered together to fight for ourselves. If you don’t stand up, no one will help us. "

Although Nassar got the punishment he deserved, the trauma and nightmare of these victims never ended. In their view, the dereliction of duty of the FBI, the dereliction of duty of the police, and the deception and cover-up of the gymnastics bureau are the chief culprits of their pain and trauma.

Because the FBI could have stopped Nassar when it first investigated him in 2015, but the FBI made a series of mistakes in the investigation, which led Nassar to continue his sexual abuse atrocities from 2015 to 2017. Among these victims is gymnast Simone Arianne Biles, who is known as the talented girl of the American gymnastics team.

Simone Arianne Biles is a two-time champion of Vault, holding a total of seven Olympic medals. At the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, she won 4 gold medals by herself and was praised as the best gymnast in the history of gymnastics. But at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games, byers withdrew from the medal competition in the team competition due to mental health problems, and then she withdrew from the vault, uneven bars and floor exercises.

Byers’s psychological problems were planted as early as when she was sexually assaulted by Nassar. She said: "As the only gymnast among the survivors who participated in the Tokyo Olympics, I can assure you that the influence of sexual abuse will never disappear or be forgotten."

In fact, in the United States, gymnastics is one of the most prone to sexual abuse. Joan Ryan, a sports columnist of the San Francisco Chronicle, once wrote in a book exposing the unreasonable system of gymnastics in the United States: "Children who practice gymnastics are trained to suppress their feelings from an early age. Your knee hurts? You are just lazy. You feel hungry? No, you are just overweight and greedy. "

From a very young age, these girls who practice gymnastics have to be trained to suppress their personal feelings and emotions, because in the sports field, to achieve higher achievements means making sacrifices and enduring physical pain and mental pressure. So when sexual harassment happens, many victims’ subconscious reaction is not to admit this uncomfortable feeling. In other words, when these girls were invaded by Nassar again and again, they really thought it was the inevitable pain caused by medical treatment.

On September 15th, 2021, four former Olympic champions, including byers, stood on the witness stand as victims’ representatives, accusing the American Gymnastics Association and the US Olympic Committee of dereliction of duty, and the FBI of dereliction of duty in case investigation, because their inaction and dereliction of duty finally led to the constant occurrence of tragedies.

In court, four girls made a statement: "We stand here in the hope that our efforts, patience and unrequited efforts over the years will enable more people to learn from our pain and make sports safer for our future generations."

On December 13, 2021, the American Gymnastics Association and the US Olympic Committee reached a settlement agreement with four victims in the amount of 380 million US dollars (about 2.4 billion yuan). On June 8, 2022, 90 victims, including byers, filed a federal administrative claim against the FBI for dereliction of duty. Perhaps, the war between the survivors and the two systems is far from over.

　　Coca-Cola sent a letter to this website: The advertisement suspected of "Tibet independence" has been taken down.

　　Global Times Global Network News: On April 9, foreign media reported that the advertisement of Coca-Cola Company with Tibetan image posted in a German railway station caused dissatisfaction among netizens in China. Some netizens think that this advertising picture implies "realizing freedom". A statement sent by Coca-Cola (China) Co., Ltd. to Global Times & World Wide Web on the 10th said that the advertisement was an old advertisement launched in Germany in 2003, and stressed that it did not contain any political or religious background. Coca-Cola Company said that the advertisement had been taken down on the same day.

　　Netizens accused Coca-Cola of advertising support for "Tibet independence"

　　On April 9th, the Guardian reported in a report entitled "China netizens claim that Coca-Cola supports Tibetans" that the advertisement of the Coca-Cola Company with Tibetans was criticized by netizens in China. A netizen said that an advertisement of Coca-Cola involved supporting "Tibet independence", which triggered a boycott of the brand by some China nationalists.

　　The report said that a poster was posted in a railway station in Germany: a group of monks were riding a roller coaster, and the picture was supplemented by the slogan "make it real". According to the report, this picture aroused the anger of a China netizen who emigrated overseas. He posted the photo on the famous Tianya website in China. On the internet, he wrote: "Germany began to appear advertisements supporting Tibet independence. Coca cola! Ok, I remember. Never get your hands on this damn product again. " Then, he commented: "Three monks represent the Tibetan Lama, and riding a roller coaster symbolizes freedom. Make it real’ means’ realizing freedom’. "

　　According to the report, some people think that this netizen’s comments are far-fetched, but more people expressed their support for this netizen who posted the photos, and they vowed to stop drinking Coca-Cola.

　　On the evening of the 8th, a spokesman for Coca-Cola Company said that the company regretted any emotional injury caused by the monk image featured in an old poster in 2003. He said that this was really not Coca-Cola’s intention. This poster shot in the past was posted in a shop window in Bremen, and it was removed after the incident.

"The declaration of martyrs for Zhou Rongjiu, a famous anti-Japanese hero from Qinglong Mountain in Naiman Banner, has finally succeeded …" Recently, the People’s Government of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region ratified Zhou Rongjiu as a martyr. The news came that the most exciting person may be Zhao Dianwu, an expert on the war of resistance in Inner Mongolia. Then, what is the story behind the anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu being chased as a martyr?

Portrait of Zhou Rongjiu

Get acquainted with books and walk in the heart.

"When I was a child, my father often talked about how the Japanese burned and looted in their hometown of Beipiao Daheishan, and how my grandparents survived the bombing by enemy planes and fled their homes to Aohan Banner. This became an unforgettable memory of my childhood. There is also a famous anti-Japanese hero in my hometown-He Sheng, who is a subordinate of the famous anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu. He Sheng personally shot and killed the Japanese devils in Naiman Banner to defend Rongzhi on the’ Tai Shang Huang’ Mountain. Later, I learned that the barbaric atrocities of the Japanese in my hometown were aimed at shocking the anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians and clearing the anti-Japanese national salvation army led by Zhou Rongjiu, which made me always full of deep respect for Zhou Rongjiu. " Zhao Dianwu told reporters that in 1935, Zhou Rongjiu led his troops to capture the Eight Immortals Tube where the pseudo Naiman Banner was located, which was a sensation. Over the years, authoritative books on the history of anti-Japanese war and revolutionary history have fully affirmed Zhou Rongjiu’s anti-Japanese exploits.

In 2014, Zhao Dianwu had a strong desire after attending the review meeting of the manuscript of the History of the Anti-Japanese War in Inner Mongolia: he had the opportunity to promote the declaration of martyrs for the anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu. At that time, he contacted some people, but there was no breakthrough, and the matter was put on hold. In 2019, Zhao Dianwu saw an investigation record about Zhou Rongjiu’s sacrifice. Witnesses told him that before he was killed, he lambasted the traitors who rounded him up, and that working for the Japanese was "Chinese without conscience" and "where is the humanity of Chinese". Zhao Dianwu was deeply moved.

"I seem to see the situation before his heroic sacrifice. From an early age, we were taught in the text to say,’ We are Chinese, and we should love our motherland’. We should be like Zhou Rongjiu, an anti-Japanese hero, to be a conscientious Chinese, and we should have the human feelings of Chinese. I can’t wait any longer, taking advantage of the summer vacation to make an investigation in the hometown of anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu. " Promoting the declaration of martyrs for the anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu has become Zhao Dianwu’s biggest concern.

When Zhao Dianwu first set foot on the hero’s hometown, he was deeply shocked. Zhou Rongjiu is a hero in the local area, helping the poor and helping the poor, eliminating violence and calming down, and his folk reputation is particularly good. "His family has a earthen fence and two forts, which shows that his family’s economic conditions are very good. If he chooses to ignore the national righteousness, he can live a comfortable life. However, he is a bloody and patriotic Chinese. He is unwilling to be conquered people. He can’t stand the arrogance and cruel rule of the Japanese devils. He angrily rises up and launches armed resistance against Japan, which is deeply admired. " Zhao Dianwu told reporters about his experience of approaching Zhou Rongjiu. Since then, "Zhou Rongjiu" has changed from a name to a real, flesh-and-blood hero in his heart.

The Report of Zhou Rongjiu’s Sacrifice in Frontier News in 1936

Heroes are famous everywhere.

"The process of declaring martyrs is also a process of in-depth study and approaching heroes, and there are many important discoveries and gains. For example, his name used to be called Zhou Rongjiu or Zhou Rongjiu. This time, through the collection of historical materials of the enemy and puppet troops, it was found that the Japanese army called it Zhou Yongjiu at that time, even the Japanese war criminals who participated in the pursuit of him wrote in the later confession materials, showing his prestige and the deep blow to the Japanese aggressors. " Zhao Dianwu said.

Originally known as Zhou Rong, Zhou Rongjiu was born on March 11th, 1896 in a poor peasant family in Zhangzitun, Henan Province, Yamenyingzi (now Qinglong Mountain Town), the first district of Naiman Banner. He is a burly man with extraordinary physical strength. He is willing to endure hardships and act bravely, which not only improves his family, but also makes many friends. In addition, he later developed a courage in his greenwood career in the paddock, which made him famous for his double guns. Therefore, Zhou Rongjiu became a company commander in the Northeast Army. Soon, his unit was reorganized into Fuxin local security team, and he served as the battalion chief.

After the "September 18th Incident", in just a few months, the Northeast fell. Zhou Rongjiu witnessed the Japanese aggressors and traitors bullying and cruel oppression and plunder of Chinese, and was very resentful. He hated the Kuomintang government’s policy of non-resistance, refused to be transferred to Shanhaiguan Pass with the troops, left the troops in anger and returned to his hometown.

In the spring of 1935, Zhou Rongjiu and his second brother, Zhou Gui, secretly killed two Japanese who bullied the people and acted recklessly, knowing that they would be pursued and retaliated, so he decided to rise up.

On the morning of July 23rd, 1935, Zhou Rongjiu led the anti-Manchu Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army to attack the Eight Immortals Tube, where the puppet Naiman Banner Office was located. After more than four hours of bloody fighting, he finally conquered the Eight Immortals Tube and killed the counselor Guan Shan Shou Rongzhi, the instructor Fujikawa Fukuro, and the inspector Nakagen. During the battle, they also captured Sasaki Tadashi Taro, a heinous Japanese agency official, and hung him in the Cross Street Courtyard, where he was executed after holding a mass meeting. Seven Japanese aggressors were killed in this battle, and all the guards of the puppet government and the police surrendered except the escapees, seized a small steel gun and more than 70 long and short guns, and burned the Naiman Banner government office …

Zhou Rongjiu’s Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army captured the Eight Immortals Tube, the political center of Naiman Banner, under the Japanese aggressors’ noses, and executed all the Japanese aggressors in charge. This was the Eight Immortals Tube incident that shocked the headquarters of the Japanese Kwantung Army and the top of the puppet Manchukuo. The Japanese aggressors became angry from embarrassment, regarded Zhou Rongjiu as a menace, mobilized heavy troops to pursue the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, pursued Zhou Rongjiu’s family, and burned down his house in Zhangzi, Henan.

In view of the crazy revenge of the Japanese puppet troops, Zhou Rongjiu led his troops to Beipiao area to join forces with the anti-Japanese armed forces led by Luan Tianlin. Two anti-Japanese teams joined forces in one place, which was a great shock. Later, they joined forces with the volunteers led by the Communist party member senior cadres and fought side by side in the area of Daheishan, dealing a heavy blow to the enemy.

In October 1935, the Japanese aggressors began to launch an "autumn crusade" against the Daheishan region. In dealing with the situation, Zhou Rongjiu adopted guerrilla tactics and constantly dealt a heavy blow to the enemy.

In order to completely destroy Zhou Rongjiu’s anti-Japanese national salvation army, the Japanese invaders set up a crusade team to pursue it, and at the same time strictly ordered all localities to chase and intercept it. The officers and men of the National Salvation Army kept fighting with their pursuers in Naiman, Kulun, Fuxin, Aohan, Arukerqin and Onniut.

On the morning of July 10, 1936, Zhou Rongjiu, who fought in Wulanmutu Mountain in northern Fuxin, was unfortunately surrounded by the enemy. Zhou Rongjiu refused to surrender, swore at the enemy and was shot on the bluestone in the western depression of Wulanmutu. In order to win credit, reward and shock the anti-Japanese forces, the enemy brutally cut off his head and hung it on the willow tree in Ertuban Street for public display. This famous anti-Japanese hero, regarded by the Japanese invaders as "the famous anti-Manchu bandit leader in Jehol Province", shed his last drop of blood to resist foreign aggression.

Archives prove anti-Japanese historical facts

"This matter lasted for two years, but it did not include the previous brewing time." Talking about the process of declaring martyrs for anti-Japanese hero Zhou Rongjiu, Zhao Dianwu told reporters. To declare a martyr, you need first-hand archives that can prove the circumstances of the victim’s sacrifice, and the materials must be excellent. General literature and history materials and historical records cannot be used as evidence.

With the assistance of Shi Zhiban, a cadre in Naiman Banner, Zhao Dianwu made a systematic investigation in Zhou Rongjiu’s hometown, and went to Wulanmutushan, Fuxin, where the hero died, to conduct on-the-spot investigation and learn from the villagers. During the investigation in Naiman Banner, many people didn’t know the whereabouts of Zhou Rongjiu’s descendants, so he had to submit an application for ratification of martyrs to the competent authorities as a citizen of the place where the incident occurred. In addition, he also entrusted friends from all walks of life from Beijing to Shanghai and then to Changchun to look for first-hand information from books and archives institutions like a needle in a haystack. He also struggled to find the hero’s descendants who had long been considered unaccounted for, but unfortunately, when the hero’s only granddaughter, 87-year-old Zhou Yanjun, was found, she was already on her deathbed. Seven days later, Zhou Yanjun died and failed to see the day when she successfully declared a martyr for her grandfather.

"After rigorous textual research and painstaking collection, the materials provided are excellent, passed the examination of Naiman Banner, Tongliao City and Autonomous Region governments and corresponding competent departments, and were put on record by the Department of Veterans Affairs." Zhao Dianwu said.(Text/Northern New Newspaper Zhengbei Net reporter Ma Lixia)(The pictures are all provided by Zhao Dianwu)

Recently, Taiwan media revealed that Song Joong Ki’s "The Legend of the New Shu Mountain Swordsman", which was invited by the mainland for 100 million RMB, was ruined due to the "Korean Restriction Order". According to a report by Taiwan Province United News Network on the 5th, on the same day, Blossom Entertainment, a brokerage company owned by Song Joong Ki, came forward to refute the rumor: Blossom said that Song Joong Ki did receive many invitations for mainland works, but no cooperation was confirmed. They had never heard of The Legend of the Swordsman in New Shushan, and did not ask for RMB 100 million.

Recently, cultural exchange or cooperation projects between China and South Korea have been interrupted one after another. Some TV dramas filmed by Korean artists in China were suddenly notified before they were about to air, and some TV dramas originally planned by Korean directors were postponed indefinitely. The market value of Korean entertainment companies has also plummeted. The market value of JYP, CJ, SM and YG has evaporated by a total of 361.5 billion won, or about 2.15 billion yuan.

Since "Descendants of the Sun" became a "national husband" in Asia, Korean star Song Joong Ki has not only been waved by advertisers, but also been strongly invited to star in many TV dramas in China. Earlier, there were rumors that the mainland TV series "The Legend of the Swordsman in the New Shushan Mountain" offered 100 million yuan to invite him to play, but it was ruined because of the recent "Korean restrictions".

Stills of Song Joong Ki’s Descendants of the Sun

On the morning of the 5th, Blossom Entertainment, a company owned by Song Joong Ki, clarified that Song Joong Ki decided not to appear in the play. They had never heard of The Legend of the Swordsman in the New Shushan Mountain, and even did not ask for RMB 100 million: "Song Joong Ki only wants to concentrate on filming at present, and will not accept new works for the time being, which has nothing to do with other events."

Blossom stressed that when Song Joong Ki receives any work, he will put the content of the work first, and will not talk about remuneration first. Song Joong Ki is now concentrating on the film Warship Island, and will not take on other works this year.

In addition, the film "Lies Sicily" co-produced by LEE JOON GI, Han Xing, Ehan Juan and Zhou Dongyu will hold its Beijing premiere on the 7th. Recently, it was reported that LEE JOON GI’s work permit was handled very slowly, so this trip may not be possible. On the 5th, the LEE JOON GI brokerage company said that it had obtained the visa and would appear in Beijing as scheduled on the 7th for publicity.

　　International Online auto channel News: The 2021 Shanghai Auto Show officially kicked off on April 19th. With all the heavy new cars participating, the domestic auto market is more "noisy" than before. At this year’s Shanghai Auto Show, the new i5 also appeared in the Roewe booth of SAIC. The design theme of the new i5 is "trendy technology", and the "bucket arch" design in the ancient buildings of China is integrated into it.

　　In terms of appearance, the front face of the new i5 adopts a brand-new parameterized Ronglin grille, which is a brand-new style quoted after Roewe iMAX8 and other models. Ronglin grille does not pursue a large size like the old grille. While highlighting the details, the design sense becomes more refined. The bright black parametric texture is matched with the layered shape, and the overall visual effect is better, compounding the aesthetics of young people nowadays. The red and black logo in the middle of the grille has also been replaced with a more modern black, white and gray color scheme. Headlights are more long and narrow in shape, and LED light sources are used for far and near lights. If they are high-profile models, headlights are also equipped with adaptive far and near light switching function.

　　Compared with the old models, the side of the car body has little change. The design of double waistline and flowing lines add light and shadow effect to the side of the new i5 car body. The brand-new double five-spoke wheels also enhance the sense of movement. The original factory equipped the new i5 with silent tires, and the front and rear tires were 205/55 R16. Although the wheel hub size was only 16 inches, the length and wheelbase of the new i5 still followed the golden section, so the visual effect on the side of the car body was very harmonious.

　　The rear of the new i5 is also modified in details, adopting the popular split taillight design, and the middle is connected by a penetrating chrome strip, which echoes the front of the car. In order to better highlight the sporty feeling of the new i5, after two large-size scheduling are designed in the fog light area of the rear bumper, a diffuser structure is added at the lower edge of the rear bumper. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new i5 are 4607/1818/1489mm and the wheelbase is 2680mm.
