Revealing the speculation behind "garlic you are malicious": the funds of large speculators exceed 100 million.

  Xinhua News Agency, Jinan, April 17th Title: Small speculators claim to have invested 1 million yuan and earned 1 million yuan-revealing the speculation behind "garlic is cruel"

  Xinhua News Agency "Xinhua Viewpoint" reporters Yuan Junbao and Liu Jinhui

  Recently, "garlic you malicious" once again. According to the investigation of Xinhua Viewpoint reporters in Jinxiang, Shandong, Zhongmu, Henan and other major garlic producing areas, the decline in output and market supply and demand are the decisive factors of this wave of "garlic you are ruthless" market, but there are also many speculators who add fuel to the flames.

  In the eyes of speculators, garlic market is like a casino. If you bet right, you can get rich overnight and return home in a luxury car; If you make a mistake, you will lose everything, and the debt collector will make it difficult for you to return home. Speculators influence prices through various means. Some small speculators bluntly said that "they invested 1 million yuan this year and almost earned 1 million yuan", and the funds of large speculators even exceeded 100 million yuan.

  "Once in heaven, once in hell" is a big casino speculator with funds exceeding 100 million yuan.

  "The world garlic sees China, and China garlic sees Jinxiang". In Nandianzi Garlic Market on Jincheng Road in Jinxiang County, hundreds of garlic brokers gather every day. It is known as "Garlic Wall Street" in the industry, and the garlic price in the whole country and even the whole world is dominated by it.

  Jinxiang is one of the main garlic producing areas in China. The garlic in Jinxiang and several surrounding counties and cities accounts for more than half of the garlic production in the main garlic producing areas, and the inventory is more than 60%. Here, it is no secret that "garlic is fried". Sometimes a batch of garlic is changed hands several times without moving in the cold storage. Driven by the "garlic you are malicious" market, many investors become rich overnight.

  "I invested 1 million yuan this year and almost earned 1 million yuan." Lao Cheng, a garlic merchant in Mamiao Town, Jinxiang County, said that he is only a small family, and the funds of more than 10 million yuan are considered medium, and some large families have funds of over 100 million yuan. Lao Cheng saved 200 tons of garlic last year, which was about 5 yuan/kg at the time of collection, and this year’s selling price was about 12 yuan/kg. Excluding the storage cost of 1 yuan per kg, he earned almost 5 yuan per kg.

  Mr. Sun, a garlic investor in Linyi, Shandong Province, regretted not investing in garlic this year. "A friend earned 4 million yuan and just drove back a Mercedes-Benz with more than 1 million yuan two days ago."

  It is understood that in July last year, when jinxiang garlic began to purchase and put into storage after harvest, the price was about 4.7 yuan/kg, but it reached 12.8 yuan/kg in mid-March this year, up 170%. "The highest price this year has exceeded the high point in 2010." Yang Guihua, executive director of Jinxiang Garlic Industry Information Association and secretary general of China Garlic Industry Information Alliance, said. 2010 is the year when "garlic is cruel" was widely known.

  Huge profits also mean huge risks. The price of garlic peaked in 2010, 2012 and 2016, while it was lower in other years. Especially at the end of 2008, the price of garlic once fell to only a few cents or even a few cents a catty.

  Zhongmou county, Henan Province is also an important garlic producing area. Mao Xiaoan is a garlic broker in zhongmou county, and has been working for 20 years. "I lost almost all my money in 2008, and I didn’t pay off the loan until last year." He said. Lao Cheng also told reporters that in 2012, the price of garlic fluctuated greatly, and he lost more than 600,000 yuan. Half of the money invested is your own, and the other half is raised by relatives and friends.

  In 2012, a foreigner named "Zhu Laosan" came to Jinxiang. "At that time, he brought hundreds of millions of yuan of funds. As a result, after a large number of purchases, the price rose rapidly in the short term but fell quickly, but lost more than 100 million yuan." An industry insider in Jinxiang County said.

  In the eyes of some garlic merchants, investing in garlic is gambling. Although they know that there are huge risks, garlic merchants still enjoy it. "If you earn money, you want to earn more, and if you lose money, you want to make money."

  "Fried garlic" such as "stock trading" runs through the whole cycle of production, warehousing and sales.

  According to Cui Xiaona, an agricultural product analyst at Zhuo Chuang Information, there are three reasons for this round of garlic price increase: First, the output has declined; Second, the demand for domestic demand and exports has not decreased or even increased; The third is hype. "In 2014, the national output decreased by about 8%-10%. The heavy snow and cold wave at the end of 2015 and the beginning of this year aggravated the expectation of garlic production reduction this year."

  In the eyes of most garlic merchants, market supply and demand are the most fundamental factors that determine the price of garlic. "There are more garlic, and it is difficult for you to fry again." However, they also admit that speculation has played a role in fueling the flames, intensifying the fluctuation range of prices, and "anything can be used" in the process of speculation.

  "At present, traditional business is not easy to do. Some big speculators, such as some real estate developers in Northeast China and Shanghai, who hold capital, have a hand of 30,000 to 40,000 tons. When there was less garlic on the market in March and April of the following year, they began to drive up the price and create the expectation that the price of garlic would rise sharply. " Liu Shaochen, president of zhongmou county Refrigeration and Preservation Association, said.

  The reporter’s investigation found that the general expectation of garlic production reduction this year was the initial factor of garlic price increase, but in the process of news dissemination, some of them were exaggerated or even artificially used. "At that time, in the garlic exchange group, some people released news of garlic production in some areas, but it was later confirmed that it was not so serious." A garlic operator in Jinxiang said that especially at the end of February this year, garlic merchants held a fresh-keeping industry conference in Shandong. The data from the meeting said that the national inventory was only 600,000 tons. Since that day, garlic has started a "crazy rise" mode.

  In addition to making a fuss about the true and false news, according to many insiders, in the process of price manipulation, big garlic merchants have many means, one of which is to buy and sell themselves, create price illusions, and guide other garlic merchants to follow suit; Second, when preparing for shipment, we bought it at a higher price, but the actual purchase volume was small, and at the same time, we secretly signed a large number of orders for shipment. "It is very similar to stock trading, and various methods and means are used, even more." An industry insider said.

  According to industry insiders, in recent years, in order to ensure the source of garlic, garlic merchants have generally begun to "secure land" before garlic goes on the market, that is, to buy future garlic in advance at a certain total price. "Gambling garlic has run through the whole cycle of garlic production, warehousing and sales."

  When does Garlic City Casino close?

  Although the price of garlic has skyrocketed, for many garlic farmers, the direct benefits are few. Chen Dongfeng, a garlic farmer in Yuzhuang Village, Wang Pi Town, Jinxiang County, said that he had to put it in storage before September of the previous year. The price he sold was 4.4 yuan/kg, and it didn’t matter how it rose after that. All the people who made money were fried garlic.

  With the listing of new garlic in various places, the price of jinxiang garlic has dropped to about 8.4 yuan/kg. Experts in the industry said that the most fundamental thing to reduce the skyrocketing garlic is to stabilize the planting area and output, and on this basis, increase the release of authoritative information, increase market transparency and reduce the space for speculation.

  It is understood that Jinxiang County has introduced garlic price insurance to promote the enthusiasm of garlic farmers. Yang Guihua said that the insurance price is determined by the average price in previous years, planting cost and other factors to protect the interests of garlic farmers. Chen Dongfeng and other garlic farmers said, "This is a good guarantee for us."

  Some insiders believe that it is difficult to identify and supervise garlic speculation. On the one hand, there are still different views in the industry on whether the phenomenon of hoarding goods and reluctance to sell goods belongs to market behavior or artificial manipulation; On the other hand, even if large merchants are United, it is difficult for relevant departments to grasp specific evidence.

  How can we reduce hype? Yang Guihua and others believe that authoritative information release should be increased to reduce unreasonable expectations. Some insiders suggest that on the basis of standardization, futures trading should be moderately carried out to achieve an effective balance of multiple short positions, so as to stabilize the price of garlic.

Rainbow Flag in Jerusalem: Israel’s "Pride" Struggles for itself and Palestinians.

On June 10th, a large number of LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) groups and their supporters held a grand rally in Tel Aviv, Israel’s most prosperous city. They marched along the main streets of Tel Aviv waving rainbow flags symbolizing minority groups. The "Pride Parade" held in Tel Aviv every summer is one of the most well-known events in Israel. Its scale is famous in the world, and sexual minorities from all over the world come to participate every year. Tel Aviv is one of the most friendly cities to LGBT people in the world. Every year, when the pride parade is held, almost the whole city of Tel Aviv enters carnival activities, and the streets and alleys are filled with rainbow flags.

However, in the holy city of Jerusalem, which is only an hour’s drive from Tel Aviv, its world-famous theme is always religious conflict and conservatism. Jerusalem has the largest orthodox Jewish community in the world, and the voices of sexual minorities are rarely heard. But what most people don’t know is that the "pride parade" has also been going on in Jerusalem for twenty years.

Different from the tolerance and revelry of freedom and openness of sexual orientation shown in Tel Aviv’s parade, the pride parade in Jerusalem is always carried out in protest and shouting. The author participated in the "Pride Parade" in Jerusalem this year, and deeply felt that the theme of this parade was not simply to support LGBT groups, but a struggle between a few Jewish secularists living in Jerusalem, the city known as "Israel’s eternal capital", and left-wing groups.

国旗游行 VS “骄傲游行”

就在特拉维夫“骄傲大游行”举行的十天前,6月2日星期四下午,众多以色列性少数群体,及持性开放态度的自由主义者在西耶路撒冷的自由钟公园(Gan HaPa’amon)集结,他们同样盛装打扮,同样挥舞着各式各样的彩虹旗与标语向耶路撒冷市中心最繁华的乔治王大街与独立公园(Gan HaAtsmaut)进发。

6月2日,耶路撒冷性少数群体的游行队伍。 本文图片均为 作者供图

对特拉维夫这样一座标榜国际化、自由化与世俗主义的现代都市来说,当彩虹旗挂满大街小巷时,标志着特拉维夫进入了狂欢节。同样的符号在耶路撒冷却完全不适用。但耶路撒冷也不甘寂寞,耶路撒冷的狂欢节便是以色列国旗飘扬在耶路撒冷全城之日。每年5月份左右,在耶路撒冷会举行盛大的国旗游行,以纪念1967年第三次中东战争以后以色列从阿拉伯人手中兼并东路撒冷,东西耶路撒冷重新合并为一个城市。理所当然,国旗游行的主题便是宣示以色列对耶路撒冷的主权,以及耶路撒冷是以色列“神圣而不可分割”的首都。

On the day of the national flag parade, the annual mandatory event is that a large number of young Israelis wave the national flag of Israel’s blue and white satellite and flood into Damascus Gate, the Palestinian-inhabited area of Jerusalem, and cross the Muslim area of the old city to reach the Western Wall, the holy place of Judaism. The whole process vented contempt and hatred for the Palestinians. On May 29th this year, a grand flag parade was just held in Jerusalem.

It seems that there are some feelings of singing against the national flag parade. Just five days later, on June 2, the "Pride Parade" followed in Jerusalem. However, unlike the flamboyant style and joyful atmosphere of the national flag parade, the "Pride Parade" appeared tense and angry in the holy city. In order to ensure the safety of the "Pride Parade", the Israeli police blocked all intersections along the parade, and they were guarded by police at intervals. A friend who took part in the parade told me, "I feel that there are more policemen in Jerusalem than people who took part in the parade."

Such a large-scale police protection is due to the fact that in the "pride parade" in Jerusalem in previous years, ultra-orthodox Jews often attacked the "pride" who participated in the parade. They thought that support for homosexuality was not allowed in religion, and these "unclean" people marched in the holy city completely blasphemed God and defiled the holy city. Even the "proud people" who participated in the parade were killed by Jewish orthodox extremists who opposed the parade.

Police on the streets of Jerusalem

Therefore, very different from Tel Aviv, the "Pride Parade" in Jerusalem not only has strict security measures, but also the participants’ emotions are mainly anger, and the slogan also highlights the "equal rights" for sexual minorities.

The slogan most frequently shouted in this parade is "Achad Shtaim Achad Shtaim Ga ‘avah Beyerushalaiim". The implication of this slogan is self-evident, that is, in ordinary times, sexual minorities are not proud in Jerusalem, but live in verbal abuse and personal attacks by various religious groups. Many slogans related to religious issues were also displayed in the procession, such as "Experience the Magic of Creation" and "Chaviv Adam SheNivrah BeTselem". There were also marchers who changed the small round hat (Kippa) worn by Jewish men, one of the symbols of Judaism, into a rainbow color. Obviously, this kind of parade is a protest and demonstration against the religious conservative groups that dominate in Jerusalem. The purpose of the marchers is not only equal rights for sexual minorities, but also the pursuit and maintenance of the secular lifestyle.

A rainbow-colored round hat (Kippa)

It’s not just about the LGBT community

What is even more shocking to the author is that this demonstration shows not only the resistance of secularism and religionism, but also the sympathy for the Palestinians. There are also people in the parade shouting "Enough military occupation!" (Daii LeKibush), "It is illegal to expand settlements!" (Ma’achaz Lo Chuqi) and other slogans of the Israeli left-wing camp. These slogans reflect the affirmative movement pursued by this March, not only for Israel’s sexual minorities, but also for the wider oppressed Palestinians.

These slogans also give us a deeper understanding of this pride parade: that is, different attitudes towards LGBT groups are a microcosm of Israel’s complicated and divided internal politics.

The pride parade in Tel Aviv and Tel Aviv people’s support for the parade not only represent Tel Aviv’s opening and internationalization, but also represent the opposition of secularist groups and left-wing political groups symbolized by Tel Aviv to religious groups and right-wing political groups represented by Jerusalem. Israeli society can also maintain its own pluralism and democracy in such polarization and opposition. In order to vividly describe the extreme division and diversification of Israeli society, some scholars have put forward the concepts of "internationalized Tel Aviv" and "jihadist Jerusalem".

This year’s pride parade in Jerusalem can show the momentum of tit-for-tat with the flag parade, and it is also related to the great changes in Israeli politics.

In June last year, the new Israeli government was established, which ousted former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his conservative right-wing political and religious ruling Coalition, and formed an "all-political spectrum ruling Coalition" that transcended the ideological dispute between the left and the right. Holovitz, the current Israeli Health Minister, fully demonstrated the political significance of this "Pride Parade". Because Holovitz himself is a homosexual and the leader of the left-wing Jewish party Meretz.

Holovitz’s political party is one of the important members of the current government and controls the Israeli Ministry of Health. At the moment when the epidemic is raging, the first important thing that Holovitz did after he became the Minister of Health was not to target Covid-19, but to approve the inclusion of blood donation of healthy homosexuals in the blood bank. This policy fully shows that one of the aims of Meretz Party is to strive for equal rights for LGBT groups and eliminate discrimination against sexual minorities in Israeli society. What’s more, another aim of the party is to pursue the coexistence of Arabs and Jews and peace between Israel and Palestine.

The sympathy of the "proud people" for the Palestinians has indeed won many Palestinians’ recognition of Israel. Because in Palestinian society, like orthodox Judaism, Islam’s attitude towards sexual minorities is extremely conservative and strict. Therefore, some Palestinian sexual minorities choose to embrace Israel in pursuit of personal freedom and normal life. I once interviewed a Palestinian student studying in Hebrew University. He came from a traditional Muslim family in East Jerusalem. His grandfather was a Palestinian refugee in exile in the Gulf countries, and he was able to return to Jerusalem with his family in the 1990s. However, he abandoned these "proud" identities of many Palestinians and chose to apply for Israeli citizenship. The reason he told is simple: "Because I am a homosexual, I am very sad to live the life I want in the Palestinian community. I prefer the Israeli society because it is more friendly to homosexuals."

It sounds like he can be a "real pride" in Israel. Therefore, it may not be difficult for us to understand the increasing number of Palestinians applying for Israeli citizenship every year released by some Israeli institutions in recent years. These people may not all be LGBT groups, but they are more likely to be individualists who pursue secular life. They may think that in another more diversified and open society, they can have more opportunities to pursue the secular lifestyle they want.

Primary school students wear helmets to school one after another, and the school is questioned to ask the local education bureau to respond across the board.

  On November 3, some netizens sent pictures showing that students from a primary school in Zhanjiang, Guangdong Province wore helmets to school one after another. Some netizens questioned whether they should wear them to school by car. On November 4th, Jimu journalists learned from the local education bureau that helmets are required to enter the campus with documents for the safety of students, but they are not required to be enforced by everyone.

  The scene pictures show that almost all the students are wearing helmets at the gate of a central primary school named Jiaowei Township. In this regard, some netizens questioned whether wearing a helmet to school is a mandatory requirement of the school. Is the helmet purchased by the school? Do I have to wear a helmet when I ride in a car?

  On November 4th, Jimu journalist learned that the above pictures were taken at the entrance of Jiaowei Township Central Primary School in xuwen county, Zhanjiang, Guangdong. The reporter called Jiaowei Township Central Primary School, but no one answered the phone.

  Jimu News reporter noticed that another netizen in xuwen county posted a screenshot of an urgent notice showing that the school requires every student to wear a helmet to school from tomorrow, whether walking or taking a car. The netizen told Jimu news reporter that this is also to enhance everyone’s awareness of wearing safety helmets, but it is not mandatory.

  The staff of xuwen county Education Bureau told Jimu journalists that helmets were issued with relevant documents for the safety of students. The document requires students to wear helmets on the way to school by motorcycle, but the final implementation is voluntary by parents, and helmets are also purchased by parents themselves, not by the school. In addition, students don’t need to wear helmets if they have parents who drive, ride bicycles or walk to school.

On famous economists in China and America: Where does the economic development after the epidemic come from?

  [Dialogue of Guangming International Forum]

  Original title:Where does the economic recovery and development after the epidemic come from?

  The management of "isolated" companies divorced from industrial chain information is extremely unreliable.

  Lu Lijian: After the outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic, leaders and industry experts in various countries gradually realized the importance of industrial chain management and studied measures to improve the stability and competitiveness of the industrial chain. As leading scholars in the field of industrial chain management and digital economy, Professor Federgren and Professor Maglas, can you introduce the development history of industrial chain management from a professional perspective and how to see the impact of the epidemic on the world economy?

  Lu Lijian: Professor of Business School of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, winner of the Nicholson Award of the International Institute of Operations and Management, and former global vice president of quantitative investment of Goldman Sachs Group.

  Federgren:Industrial chain management is very popular now, and high-quality enterprises with core competitiveness have a very professional and perfect industrial chain management system. But 20 years ago, this major was almost a niche discipline. Only the analysts and middle managers of the expert team were concerned about the difficult problems in the design and management of the high-efficiency industrial chain, and these problems rarely even appeared in the company’s board of directors or government cabinet meetings. Even similar business administration majors in business schools rarely offer related courses or only a few students are interested in such courses.

  Awi Federgruen: Charles Professor at Columbia University Business School, head of the Department of Risk Decision-making and Operation Management, and academician of the American Academy of Engineering.

  Nowadays, this phenomenon has changed dramatically. On the one hand, because of the crisis caused by the COVID-19 epidemic, many countries realized that the key elements of products were seriously inadequate overnight, and the news media kept reporting the serious shortage of medical materials. In addition, the grounding order and factory closures around the world have caused serious deficiencies in other key elements of the product line unrelated to the epidemic. For example, Procter & Gamble, the world’s top 500 company, is a manufacturer of household products such as laundry detergent and toilet paper. More than 9,000 kinds of raw materials needed to produce 17,600 kinds of finished products depend heavily on more than 400 different suppliers in China, and its first-line suppliers in other countries are also facing a shortage of raw materials. The serious shortage of core key production factors like this makes enterprise managers and economic policy makers realize that the traditional "isolated" corporate management mechanism that is divorced from the upstream and downstream information of the industrial chain in which the company is located is extremely unreliable. For the sustainable, healthy and stable development of the economy, we must reshape the stability and competitiveness of the industrial chain from the perspective of the industrial chain.

  According to a survey conducted by the American Supply Chain Management Association at the end of February and the beginning of March 2020, about 75% of the companies reported that the COVID-19 epidemic caused the interruption of their industrial chains, and 44% of the companies did not have any plans to deal with such interruption risks. Among Google’s 2.5 trillion global search keywords throughout the year, the frequency of the word "supply chain" has increased fivefold from early January to mid-April 2020.

  In fact, industrial chain management, as the core part of the company’s strategy and the core driving force of the company’s profitability, existed long before the COVID-19 outbreak, and will continue to exist in the future. Some industries have been completely changed because of the innovation of industrial chain strategy. For example, Amazon can lead and monopolize the global electronic retail industry, not because it provides better or different products, nor because its price is more competitive than its competitors. Its unprecedented success is only because of its innovation in industrial chain management strategy. For the same reason, Wal-Mart has nearly $517 billion in global revenue. Wal-Mart is by far the largest comprehensive retailer of physical stores and e-commerce in the world.

  Maglas:The COVID-19 epidemic has brought great loss of life, economic interruption and uncertainty. The global health care system, political system, the ability of relevant institutions to respond to the crisis, and the economic relevance and dependence through the convergence of global industrial chains are facing severe challenges from the epidemic. In addition, the epidemic has aroused great concern about social injustice, especially among some people who have health and economic income crises caused by the epidemic.

  Costis Maglaras: Dean of Business School of Columbia University and Professor of David and Lynn hilfing.

  Many of us have been involved in a natural experiment for nearly a year. After the outbreak of the epidemic, many countries implemented the isolation policy of closing cities and homes, and some countries are still studying and working remotely. Although some industries, such as food and agriculture, have not stopped operating during this period and have returned to normal operation to a large extent, a large number of economies related to service industries will continue to work remotely. Such a situation has accelerated the trend that appeared before, and has produced a butterfly effect on urban transportation, working methods, workplace, shopping methods, service methods, reading methods and supply and demand.

  Lu Lijian: That’s true. The China government has done an excellent job in controlling the epidemic, and the epidemic has been effectively controlled at home. I found that the word "industrial chain" or "supply chain" has a frequency of nearly 100 million in China. The impact of this epidemic on the world economy is extremely great. Taking the United States as an example, the epidemic caused a large number of enterprises to go bankrupt, involving a wide range. The traditional service industries such as transportation, catering, hotels and tourism were the most affected, followed by industrial enterprises, especially manufacturing.

  The globalization of industrial chain is related to the safe production capacity.

  Lu Lijian: The industrial chain in the 21st century is closely related to economic globalization. After the outbreak of the epidemic, the media in individual countries hyped the topic of "anti-globalization" and proposed to stop globalization and let manufacturing return to their own countries. Even some politicians in individual countries regarded globalization as a political game and chip. What does Professor Federgren think of the phenomenon of "anti-globalization"?

  Federgren:A key strategic question is, from the perspective of efficiency and flexibility of industrial chain, does a company need to localize suppliers, or outsource to other countries or regions, or use both internationally? In the past few decades, an obvious practice in the United States or most European countries is to gradually outsource manufacturing to countries and regions where labor and raw materials are cheaper. Recently, we have also seen the momentum contrary to this. For example, between 2000 and 2003, 240,000 manufacturing activities were outsourced to areas outside the United States every year. However, this figure was reduced to 50,000 in 2016. In the same year, 70,000 similar manufacturing activities were brought back to the United States, and the direct impact was to increase and promote job opportunities in the manufacturing industry in the United States. Before the COVID-19 epidemic spread, the new information provided by Bank of America confirmed this phenomenon. In a survey involving 3,000 companies, the researchers found that in 12 global industries with a total market value of more than 22 trillion US dollars, more than 80% companies located in North America, Europe and Asia except China are implementing or announcing plans to move back to the United States from their current regions, which shows that the localization trend does exist.

  So how to explain this trend against globalization? First of all, the company realizes that the selection of suppliers should not only depend on the direct production costs of purchasers, but also take into account the total landing costs of all costs associated with suppliers, including transportation, warehousing and customs costs, as well as the costs needed for safe inventory to meet local needs. The costs associated with these inventories can be enormous, especially when the distance from suppliers to the local area is very long, full of uncertainty and the need to maintain high quality of service. In addition, suppliers usually have capacity constraints, and their capacity varies greatly. Secondly, the increasing risks of the global economy have prompted companies to constantly change their supplier selection decisions and corresponding procurement strategies. In the past 40 years, the cost of production labor in some countries has also been increasing. In the current trade friction, the United States, China and Europe are rapidly changing their trade tariffs, which makes the fluctuation of logistics costs and commodity prices constantly increase. In addition, foreign exchange and interest rates are constantly changing rapidly. All these fluctuations have an important impact on demand, cost and production capacity. Generally speaking, due to sudden supplier closure, quality problems, rational distribution plan and other factors, the theoretical capacity level is very different from the actual production process. Thirdly, due to the limitation of suppliers’ production capacity, it is necessary to purchase from two or more suppliers in a volatile environment.Even what companies are eager for. Of course, the difficulty of the global purchasing strategy of multiple suppliers is how to decide the allocation problem of each supplier and how to dynamically adjust the allocation decision between suppliers by using inventory information. In most cases, enterprises can use contracts similar to the concept of financial options to solve the problem of supplier allocation, that is, enterprises can book or invest in the capacity of suppliers in advance to ensure that they have the corresponding capacity when needed in the future. Similarly, for a multinational company with two or more assembly plants distributed in different regions of the world, and the cost and delivery cycle of these factories to serve customers are different, it faces the same dilemma.

  Lu Lijian: You returned to the objective law of economic development from the dimensions of total economic landing cost, economic risk and production capacity, and expounded the "anti-globalization" that appeared in recent years. Your analysis makes people understand the truth that whether an enterprise implements globalization strategy is determined by the efficiency and flexibility of the industrial chain of its product production. Indeed, the globalization of industrial chain is the objective requirement of the development of social productive forces and the inevitable result of scientific and technological progress. It does not plague economic development as some politicians and media say. Their purpose is to "politicize" the issue of globalization. In your opinion, how to improve the flexibility and competitiveness of the industrial chain in the post-epidemic era?

  Federgren:In most industrial chain configurations, the volatility level or risk level is the primary driving force for high operating costs. Under the global production and procurement system with multiple suppliers, due to the full and effective sharing of orders and capacity resources among suppliers, the industrial chain system has enhanced its ability to resist risks, thus having higher flexibility and operational efficiency. Therefore, the globalization of industrial chain is an important measure to improve the production capacity with safety guarantee.

  In addition, we should also consider that the supplier’s channel is in a state of partial or complete interruption during the epidemic. The COVID-19 epidemic has produced a large number of actual cases as described above. However, the problem is not limited to the once-in-a-century COVID-19 epidemic. Other factors, such as the flood disaster in Thailand, the earthquake in Japan, the hurricane similar to Katrina in the United States, local fires and factory pollution, will also cause worldwide production and supply disruptions. In the vaccine manufacturing industry, due to the small number of international suppliers and the frequent long-term closure of production equipment, the problem of insufficient production capacity has always existed. Therefore, the consideration of industrial chain flexibility also provides additional incentives for multi-supplier global supply strategy.

  In fact, my team’s latest research shows that compared with the procurement strategy of a single supplier, the benefits brought by the procurement strategy of multiple suppliers, even if only two suppliers, are very obvious. Even in an environment with stable cost, stable demand and risk-free production capacity, the benefits of global decentralized procurement are also very significant. Of course, in a volatile market environment, the effect of decentralized global multi-supplier configuration will be more obvious. However, to realize and realize the benefits brought by globalization requires the most advanced industrial chain configuration models and algorithms, and these studies are also the focus of my research team at Columbia University Business School.

  Lu Lijian: From the perspective of reducing the fluctuation level of the industrial chain, you discussed how to rationally use the procurement decentralization and incentive mechanism in the process of globalization to effectively improve the efficiency of the industrial chain and reduce the fluctuation. From the perspective of historical development, economic globalization has promoted the flow of goods and capital, the progress of science and technology and civilization, and the exchanges between people of various countries, providing a strong impetus for world economic growth. Of course, economic globalization will not be smooth sailing, it is a double-edged sword, and there will be various problems, such as geopolitical risks, high dependence on production links in a certain region caused by high concentration of suppliers, and insufficient response ability to abnormal demand. However, simply blaming the problems that plague the world on economic globalization is neither in line with the facts nor helpful to solve the problems. In the face of opportunities and challenges, it is more important to ease trade frictions, remove barriers to enterprise development, work closely together to cope with all difficulties and challenges, work together to achieve comprehensive economic recovery and healthy development, and advocate formulating strategies according to local conditions to enhance the flexibility and core competitiveness of the industrial chain.

  Technological innovation is an important driving force for economic recovery and development.

  Lu Lijian: In recent years, technological innovation including big data technology has developed rapidly and been widely used, playing an increasingly important role. Professor Maglas, please talk about the application of this technology in service and digital economy and its significance to economic development in the post-epidemic era.

  On October 28, 2020, in Sejong City, South Korea, the staff showed an auxiliary distribution robot that could follow the courier’s movement. Xinhua news agency

  Maglas:Although the COVID-19 epidemic has caused great losses to the world economy, it has also accelerated technological innovation in many fields, which is an important driving force for economic recovery and development.

  First of all, in the field of transportation, all kinds of enterprises are trying to overcome the problems encountered in the resumption of production and work caused by the COVID-19 epidemic, set a safe social distance, and formulate detailed rules that people should abide by in the halls, elevators and open office environments of commercial buildings. In the city business center, the problem of employees commuting safely is particularly worrying, because it is a process that relies heavily on the public transportation system. At present, the public health policy requires to reduce the congestion of the transportation system and increase the utilization rate of bicycles. However, this model is not enough to meet the transportation needs of millions of commuters on a large scale, especially for long-distance commuting. For example, in the urban subway transportation system, assuming that the safe distance between people is doubled, for example, from 2 feet to 4 feet, the traffic capacity will be reduced to 75%. This requirement has a particularly serious impact on peak hours. The safe social distance during peak hours is usually close to 1 foot, and the requirement of increasing the social distance to 4 feet will reduce the transportation capacity to only 5%.

  So how to deal with the extremely shrinking traffic capacity caused by the epidemic? Here, I will focus on analyzing and expounding the principle of demand smoothing in management, that is, the idea of reasonably dispersing demand throughout the time interval. Managing an economic society in a special period of gradual resumption of work and production forces us to rethink the most basic assumption in daily life, that is, most people have the same working hours and need to take the public transport system at the same time every day. This basic assumption can and should be removed, for example, by staggering the working hours in some way. This process of smoothing demand and reducing the load utilization rate during peak hours will greatly reduce the congestion of public transportation systems, road networks and office buildings. For example, assuming that the current system has a 60-minute peak period and a 90-minute busy period every four hours, a simple calculation shows that a subway will improve its transportation capacity by more than 30% and maintain its operation at a utilization rate below 85%. Considering different traffic networks, only the way of smoothing demand will make up for 50% of the loss of traffic capacity caused by the increase of social distance during the epidemic, and increase the traffic capacity in the post-epidemic era by 30%. In addition, it will reduce the congestion delay and total traffic time caused by full subway cars and crowded platforms.

  The method of demand smoothing is also being applied in the road system, aviation and power network system in the United States. Generally speaking, such smoothing can be achieved through price incentives, such as giving a certain discount on electricity consumption at night, and charging higher fees for driving in special areas during peak hours. However, before shifting to price incentives, we should try to reduce the structural impact of the convergence of daytime working hours on the peak infrastructure load. Car sharing is another feasible solution to traffic congestion. In order to promote the use of shared cars, we need to invest in the optimization of technical schemes such as scheduling and pricing mechanism. At present, many difficult problems in the field of shared cars will lead to more in-depth thinking and guide a large number of sustainable technological innovations.

  The second area is telecommuting. After the outbreak, almost all employees switched to telecommuting overnight, which greatly affected the service industry and my higher education. Many people are studying such a topic: to what extent the emergence of telecommuting will be a long-term trend, and what kind of science and technology and management tools can be used to create an inclusive, innovative and dynamic organic culture. Although telecommuting has achieved great success during the epidemic, it is still uncertain whether this method can be successful for a long time. In the current environment, telecommuting is facing great difficulties and challenges. For example, it is very complicated to hire and train new employees, and the process of innovation requires intense and purposeful joint research and development, which are difficult to achieve by telecommuting; Corporate culture is also difficult to maintain and evolve through telecommuting, and personal relationship networks usually rely on spontaneous and informal communication — — It is almost impossible for "cold water communication" in remote mode to replace it. Most people may rely on scientific and technological tools for projects, documents and other work, or work together through online meetings, but these tools can’t solve the problems and challenges in interpersonal communication mentioned above.

  In order to fill this defect of telecommuting and cope with the current epidemic crisis, many very meaningful innovations are currently under way. For example, some innovative works combine the virtual network and virtual reality technology that are currently being created. A large part of this work draws on the knowledge and technology of online game industry. It is a very necessary measure to improve our ability to maintain close relationship and virtual communication. In addition, how to fully combine offline communication to achieve the best results also requires in-depth thinking and guidance from team and project management.

  Finally, innovation also plays an important role in the recovery of other service industries. Education has been transformed during the epidemic, and the experience we have quickly explored and learned will continue to play a role. The scientific and technological tools of distance learning will allow scientific research institutions to provide online and offline hybrid teaching methods, focusing on interpersonal interaction activities that can be most beneficial to students’ learning, and enhancing the value of the educational projects we provide. In addition, we can quickly get familiar with and use distance education tools, and then improve the education level in remote and poor areas lacking teachers or professional educators.

  In a word, the epidemic has brought about great changes in many aspects of our economy, forcing us to rethink and rethink many aspects and habits of life. This process is subversive, but it will continue to lead long-term innovation and changes to our global economy.

  Lu Lijian: You discussed the important role of technological innovation in economy. Search, socialization, payment and entertainment constitute the infrastructure of the online world, and the digital and intelligent upgrading of the industrial chain is also the infrastructure for building the future data productivity era. After adopting digital technology, industrial chain enterprises are not only an individual in the economic sense, but also a source of data production, and these industrial chain data are of extraordinary significance for Industry 4.0, intelligent manufacturing and the possible AI+ manufacturing revolution in the future. In the post-epidemic era, technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence and blockchain will play a more important role in the industrial chain. First of all, through the decentralized, open, autonomous, anonymous and tamper-proof characteristics of blockchain, problems such as data leakage, theft of sensitive information and geopolitical interference have been effectively solved. Secondly, because data can objectively reflect the truth and development law, rich and comprehensive data greatly improve the geographical limitations in the process of traditional globalization, increase the efficiency of information communication and accurately trace the source of problems. This kind of big data technology helps to reduce the cost and obstacles of information communication in the industrial chain and greatly improve the efficiency and competitiveness of the industrial chain. In the future digital era, whoever has the most comprehensive data volume and has mastered intelligent technologies related to big data processing and business analysis will have the core competitiveness of this market.

  Guangming Daily (January 23, 2021, 08 edition)

New york Times CNN’s careful machine has finally been noticed by Americans.

[Compile/Observer Network Guo Han]

An independent organization in the United States that monitors media news reports found that although street demonstrations occurred frequently around the world this year, the mainstream media in the United States "took extra care" of Hong Kong and spared no effort to favor the demonstrators and ignore the violence they created.

On December 6th, an American non-profit organization named FAIR revealed that compared with other countries and regions, the mainstream media in the United States used a disproportionate amount of space to report the demonstrations in Hong Kong.

Screenshot of FAIR website "When people all over the world take to the streets, the (American) media only pay attention to Hong Kong"

The organization was founded in 1986, headquartered in new york, with a left-wing position. Its goal is to supervise the accuracy, bias and audit of American media reports, and call for the split of large media companies.

The article believes that these media companies build a stereotype by reporting a lot and covering up the shady details of the demonstrators, that is, "a group of Hong Kong people who are democratic are fighting Beijing for freedom."

Therefore, this paper counts the number of times that The New York Times and CNN reported street demonstrations in Hong Kong, China, Ecuador, Haiti and Chile. These two media are chosen because they are the most representative and good at setting the agenda in print and TV media.

Since the start time of protests in different countries and regions is different, it ends on November 22, 2019 statistically. The reporting time on Hong Kong lasted for eight months, from October when protests broke out in Ecuador and Chile to July last year in Haiti.

As far as the total number is concerned, the two media reported 737 articles on Hong Kong (325 in New Times and 412 in CNN), 12 in Ecuador, 28 in Haiti and 36 in Chile. The number of reports on Hong Kong is nearly 10 times that of other topics.

The New York Times and CNN reported on the demonstrations in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region far more than the screenshots of other countries and regions:FAIR

Although the duration of demonstrations in different regions is different, it is impossible to generalize, but comparing the reports in the same period can still support this conclusion.

For example, October 3-14 is the most intense period of street protests in Ecuador. During the period,"New Time" only published 6 related reports, and CNN3 articles; However, the two media reported 33 and 38 articles on Hong Kong respectively in the same period.

Since the demonstration broke out in Chile on October 4,New Time and CNN reported 14 times and 22 times respectively; In the same period, there were 59 and 92 reports on Hong Kong respectively.

It must be pointed out that many reports on the demonstrations in the above three countries are classified as "protests around the world", and sometimes only one or two sentences are mentioned in each article. CNN has only two special reports on Ecuador, and half of its reports on Haiti are concerned about the impact of demonstrations on American citizens.

But when it comes to Hong Kong, most of them are long exclusive reports. This has not included articles such as demonstrations affecting Asian stock markets.

On the other hand, the difference in the number of reports between Hong Kong and the other three countries is so obvious that it cannot be understood according to the scale of the protests or the degree of the means of maintaining stability by powerful departments.

For example, a week after the demonstration, eight people have died in Ecuador. The United Nations has confirmed that 42 people have been killed in protests in Haiti in the past two months. Chilean right-wing President Piniella simply sent tanks to the streets, and the military arrested more than 26,000 people, during which 26 people died.

In contrast, no one died because of the law enforcement of the Hong Kong police. Over the past six months, a student accidentally fell off the building, and another 70-year-old cleaner, Rob, was hit by a stone from a demonstrator and died unfortunately.

When reporting on Hong Kong, the language of the two media is also very "Be particularThe negative words used to describe demonstrators in Ecuador, Haiti and Chile are rarely used in Hong Kong. And we should highlight the so-called "democratic" characteristics of the latter and ignore its violent behavior.

For example, CNN reported on August 30 and October 15, and New Times reported on October 15 and November 21, all of them described the thugs who created violence and destruction on the streets of Hong Kong as "pro-democracy demonstrators".

However, street demonstrators in Chile who have similar behaviors have become "robbery and arson" and "riots" in the mouth of the two media. "Violent demonstrations swept through Quito (the capital of Ecuador) … The demonstrators took military members hostage."

The article points out that even if it is actually very appropriate, such words are rarely used in Hong Kong’s demonstrators. Apart from causing damage, they even lit gasoline on a dissident citizen in broad daylight, leaving him in a coma for 10 days.

In a report on November 17th, The New York Times used a passive tone to lightly describe that a police officer was shot in the leg by a mob bow and arrow, and did not forget to emphasize that "the demonstrators were’ resisting’ the police attack’".

Even after reporting that mobs made and intended to use "hundreds of incendiary bombs", the newspaper still called them "pro-democracy activists" in the article.

On October 17, CNN also announced a gas tank-sized mob homemade bomb, and got news that they planned to attack the police with it. The shape of this bomb is very similar to the bomb used in the Boston Marathon bombing in 2013.

The article questioned whether CNN and New Times would continue to call them "pro-democracy activists" if members of organizations such as "Black Life Expensive" and "Antifa" used such bombs to attack the police.

Multi-round points system in the first China Mahjong Open reduces luck factors.

  Recently, the news that the first China Mahjong Open will be held in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province triggered a heated discussion among netizens. The Beijing Youth Daily reporter noted that the Hangzhou Branch of the Chinese Chess Institute recently announced that it planned to hold the "First Chinese Mahjong Open" in Hangzhou from March 24 to March 26.

  According to reports, there are two official competitions of Sichuan Mahjong, National Mahjong and a promotion project of Hangzhou Mahjong 2V2. The total prize money of the competition reached 1 million yuan, of which the prize money of Sichuan Mahjong Champion was as high as 200,000 yuan. As long as you are a contestant, there is a minimum bonus of 2000 yuan.

  Adopt multi-round integration system

  The reporter of Beijing Youth Daily contacted Lu Xing, director of the Mahjong Competition Training Center of Hangzhou Branch of China Chess Institute. He introduced that Sichuan Mahjong and National Mahjong are official mahjong competitions recognized by the International Mahjong Union, with very mature competition rules and a large number of penalty cases, which are the best choices for holding competitions at this stage. The national standard mahjong has many types, many changes and great difficulties, while Sichuan mahjong has a good mass base and is the mahjong project with the most fans in the world.

  Lu Xing said that the first China Mahjong Open will be conducted by multiple rounds of points system. In this way, the factor of luck can be minimized as much as possible.

  According to the regulations of the competition, if a player participates in this competition, he/she must first register as a mahjong player in the relevant WeChat applet, and obtain 6 amateur segments online according to the guidance before he/she is eligible to sign up for the "Professional Segment Finalization Competition" held in Beijing, Chengdu and Hangzhou in March. Only after promotion can you qualify for the "China Mahjong Open". Lu Xing said that the stage system of mahjong basically refers to the stage system of Go, and players can achieve promotion by competing with other players in the same stage.

  Lu Xing said that after the Open, the game will be broadcast to the public through live broadcast, and the public can learn more about it by paying attention to the related WeChat WeChat official account of Hangzhou Branch of China Chess Institute.

  A netizen who participated in the online examination of the segment mentioned by Hangzhou Branch of Chinese Chess Institute told Beiqing Daily that it was less difficult to become an amateur segment at first. "When you answer some questions online for a while, you can become an amateur segment by reaching the standard. From the second stage, it will be carried out by means of mahjong competition. Generally, it will be played for more than ten rounds first, and then the points will be calculated to decide whether to upgrade. It is not easy to upgrade. "

  Champion experience

  The most important thing is psychological quality.

  Xie Jin, from Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province, has participated in the national mahjong competition many times before. He said that he is planning to participate in the China Mahjong Open to be held in Hangzhou. Xie Qin introduced that compared with other types of mahjong, the national standard mahjong pays great attention to the card type. "For example, there is a fixed score for all colors, and there is another score for Menqing. In the end, you will calculate how many points your card type is worth, similar to the scoring competition."

  Wang Xiangnong, who won the national mahjong championship at the World Mahjong Games, also told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that he was still a little nervous when he first participated in the mahjong competition. "Sometimes I have to improvise, but it has been 17 years since I played in 2005. I am used to it. I think the most important thing in the competition is psychological quality, which is the same for both mahjong players and athletes in other sports. "

  "China is the birthplace of mahjong, but in contrast, Chinese mahjong is a bit green and yellow." Wang Xiangnong said that the participants of some mahjong sports associations are basically old people in their sixties and seventies, and their relatively young strength is limited. Xie Qin also admitted that although China began to promote mahjong very early, many young people were not used to it because of the points rules of national mahjong. "This promotion of mahjong competition through the Internet may attract more young people."

  Respond to questions

  The first premise of mahjong is not gambling.

  In response to the concern of some netizens about whether the spread of mahjong will lead to gambling, Wang Xiangnong said that the first premise of mahjong is not to gamble, not to stay up late, and to be healthy. "The competition uses a score table to calculate who wins and who loses. We promote Chinese mahjong and remind everyone to resist gambling."

  Wang Xiangnong said that many people will link mahjong with gambling. "But in fact, it is not mahjong but people who gamble. If you want to gamble, you can gamble with playing cards or anything. The key to gambling is people’s moral character, and you should not blame mahjong. "

  For example, Wang Xiangnong said that for gamblers, mahjong is a must to "draw cards" and win money, but for mahjong players, it is necessary to calculate how actions are more beneficial to them, and sometimes even deliberately put others "draw cards", which can guarantee their scores. "This is the difference between sports and gambling. Whether mahjong or any other sport, excluding the interests of money is a healthy sport." Text/reporter Qu Chang Intern Yang Tongyu

Military Forum: A Perspective of Future War Development

Perspective on the change of future war development

■ Li Yuxi Liu Heshan

You can’t understand war without understanding the times. As the society enters the era of intelligence, the form of war has also undergone profound evolution. In what way human beings produce, they fight in what way. There is an intelligent mode of production in the intelligent era, which will inevitably shape an intelligent form of war. With the development of science and technology, the presentation form, decision-making mode, organizational style and security mode of war will undergo subversive changes.

The change in the form of war. The form of war is the historical coordinate of the development process of war, which determines the orientation of the times in which human war activities are located in each period. Since the 1960s and 1970s, with the grand development of new military revolution on a global scale, the form of war has also started the continuous acceleration process of the transformation from mechanized war to information war, and finally to the advanced stage of information war-intelligent war. The future war will enter the era supported by intelligent technology, and the field of confrontation will involve politics, economy, diplomacy, society and many other fields. The combat space will be extended from the traditional physical space to the virtual cognitive space, the grouping of combat forces will be transformed from man-machine mixed grouping to unmanned combat cluster, and the combat action will be developed from man-machine cooperation and people-oriented action to unmanned autonomous combat. On the surface, it seems calm, but the confrontation in intangible space is surging. The strategic game of mixed war is becoming increasingly clear, and the war will fully enter ".

The change of war decision-making mode. All along, the way of war decision-making has been comprehensively restricted by various factors such as battlefield reconnaissance, command, communication and support. With the development of intelligent unmanned, network information and other technologies, the way of war decision-making will change intelligently, showing the characteristics of data support, algorithm dominance, man-machine collusion and distribution autonomy. Before launching actions in the tangible battlefield space, all sides of the war confrontation calculate first and then fight. The massive intelligence data obtained from multiple sources are processed through cloud brain fusion. With the help of digital twinning, virtual reality and holographic projection imaging technology, the intelligent confrontation deduction is carried out in the network virtual space first, and the comprehensive strength of the enemy and ourselves is compared and analyzed, so that the deduction results can serve the war decision. When making decisions in the war, we adopt the "man in the loop" brain-computer coordination decision-making mode, and with the perceptual divergent thinking of the human brain and the powerful calculation and statistics ability of the computer, we can quickly judge the situation, plan the task, give instructions and adjust independently, so as to realize the perfect combination of decision-making art and decision-making science.

The change of war organization style. In recent years, no matter the concepts such as "autonomous war", "shadow war" and "the sixth generation war", or the "Joint Concept" of the US military or the "Armed Forces Construction Plan" of the Russian military, they are all based on the development trend of science and technology. Mechanized warfare is a platform-centered physical destruction attack, information warfare is a network-centered system confrontation battle, and intelligent warfare is a comprehensive strength contest centered on cognitive decision-making. The supporting combat system is mainly subversive technologies such as unmanned control, artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing, quantum communication, blockchain, etc., emphasizing distributed real-time killing centered on cognitive decision-making. In the near future, the continuous development of intelligent technologies such as deep neural network, brain-computer interaction, automatic processing, 3D printing and Internet of Things will inevitably improve the scientific and technological content in the military field, making the war organization style show the characteristics of "some people are not combined, no one is independent in front, and some people are regulating in the rear".

The change of war support mode. At all times and in all countries, outstanding military strategists all attach importance to the security work in the war, as the saying goes, "the military and horses have not moved, and the food and grass come first." For example, in the battle of Guandu in ancient times, Cao Jun attacked Wu Chao at night, which destroyed the grain and grass of Yuan Shao’s army and defeated the whole army. In modern warfare, due to the lack of logistics supply, the troops with fierce offensive on the battlefield have to stop and wait for the supply of military supplies, thus missing the fighters, and so on. Therefore, war support determines the outcome of the war in a certain sense, and its position and role have always been very important. It is not only an important content of military management, but also a key support to win the war. In the past, there were too many war support activities, a single source of support resources and simple and extensive implementation of support. However, with the change of intelligent war form, the war support model will also undergo subversive changes. The future war support will rely on the Internet of Things technology and intelligent information system, with physical distributed storage, virtual centralized management and military-civilian cooperative supply of support resources, global real-time monitoring, intelligent prediction matching and advanced planning for support organization implementation, so as to realize joint logistics supply, global configuration, intelligent deployment and accurate forward delivery of war support resources, ensure accurate, efficient, stable and reliable implementation of war support, and continuously extend the battlefield support capability to the end.

A change in the line of checks and balances in war. War is a kingdom of uncertainty. For a long time, people have known that it is difficult to achieve victory only by "straight thinking" and "open array". Liddell hart, a British strategic theorist, analyzed the successful strategic cases in the world and found a rule: 90% of them used the "indirect route". However, the "indirect route" has long appeared as a supplementary role of the direct route. However, compared with the past, the modern warfare system is huge, there are many nodes, and there are many vulnerable "life gates", which provides a broader opportunity for choosing "indirect route" and implementing "asymmetric" checks and balances. Judging from several local wars in the world in recent years, even the powerful American army attaches great importance to the "devious plan" in the face of weak opponents. "Those who are good and amazing are infinite as heaven and earth, and inexhaustible as rivers." No matter now or in the future, the strategic game of war between countries, especially among the world’s military powers with strong strategic damage capabilities, can neither achieve their own operational goals according to conventional thinking, nor simply have the idea of fighting an "open array." In order to win the future war, we must follow and develop the winning mechanism of the future war, adhere to the "indirect route" and do a good job of asymmetric checks and balances, so as to always grasp the initiative of the war.

Lula said that it is necessary to thoroughly investigate the riots in Congress! "Make sure someone opens the door to the presidential palace for the rebels."

  [Global Times reporter Pan Xiaotong] According to Agence France-Presse reported on the 12th, Brazilian President Lula said that anti-government mobs who stormed the presidential palace and other government agencies may have received help from the inside. The British "Guardian" said on the 12th that Lula suspected that the staff who supported former President Bossonaro helped mobs enter the presidential palace, and said that the presidential palace was "full of Bossonaro supporters".

  According to Brazilian media reports on the 12th, Lula said on the same day that many people in the armed forces were accomplices, and some people in the military and police colluded with the rebels. "I’m sure someone opened the door of the presidential palace for the rebels because the door was not destroyed.". Lula said that the incident would be thoroughly investigated, and that anyone suspected to be a core supporter of Bolsonaro could not stay in the presidential palace. "How can I let a person who might shoot me stand at the door of my office?" Agence France-Presse reported on the 12th that Lula once again criticized the army for not taking any measures to stop the sabotage by Bolsonaro supporters and not playing its due role in "easing the situation" in this riot.

  On the 8th of this month, more than 100 buses carrying demonstrators arrived in the capital Brasilia. Thousands of supporters of Bossonaro forcibly broke into the Capitol, the Federal Supreme Court and the Presidential Palace, and clashed with the military and police. Lula accused Bolsonaro of using social media to incite supporters, which denied this.

  According to a report by Brazil’s Global Television and Sao Paulo newspaper on the 12th, the law enforcement department found a memorandum in the home of andersson Torres, the dismissed head of public security in Brasilia, which suggested that Bolsonaro should defend around the High Electoral Court to overturn the election results. Torres responded on social media later that day that the memorandum was one of the many proposals received by the Ministry of Justice and should have been "smashed in due course" with other documents. According to him, this memo exposed by the media "contributed to the false description of him" and he "has a clear conscience". On Tuesday, Brazil’s Supreme Court issued an arrest warrant against Torres, accusing him of being behind the attack on Brazil’s state power.
