　　Reference News Network reported on September 5th that on September 3rd, the website of Hong Kong’s South China Morning Post published an article entitled "Don’t be fooled by what the United States said about China’s military superiority", written by Alex Law. According to the article, the United States called China a "close" opponent in military strength. The article believes that the United States exaggerates and advocates threats so much, which means that it wants to wage war itself. The article is excerpted as follows:

　　When the United States began to warn how powerful its opponent was militarily, it meant that it was preparing for war. Usually, this means a hot war, such as in Iraq, Afghanistan, Nicaragua, Cuba, the war on terror, the war on drugs … … What happened in. Therefore, threats, whether real or imagined, must be greatly exaggerated to justify the use of overwhelming force, which would constitute a serious war crime if any other country did so.

　　However, it may also be a cold war if the opponent is too strong to overthrow it easily. For example, the Soviet Union’s military strength was overestimated and deliberately exaggerated. That was the so-called missile gap in the 1950s and early 1960s, when Washington falsely claimed that Moscow had more nuclear warheads. Of course, the purpose of doing this is to prepare the US military and make the military industry group make a big profit with the support of American taxpayers.

　　Of course, the opponent now is China. However, there is still no consensus on whether to fight a cold war or a hot war with China. But in any case, it is necessary to expand the military strength on a large scale, and this can only mean issuing a "warning" to China’s so-called military superiority in this and that combat area.

　　According to the latest report released by the Pentagon, "China has been evenly matched with and even surpassed the United States in many fields of military modernization, including shipbuilding, land-based conventional ballistic missiles and cruise missiles, and integrated air defense systems".

　　What about last week? There is also a report from Australia, which is the closest English-speaking ally of the United States in the region. According to a new research report by the Center for American Studies at the University of Sydney, the US military is no longer the main force in Asia, and China’s military strength is rapidly increasing. Once a war breaks out, missiles launched by China’s army can destroy various bases in the United States within a few hours.

　　Really? Hundreds of US military bases are distributed all over Asia, with more than 132,000 active servicemen. This is by far the largest military presence outside the United States, not including the US military allies in the region. And China may be able to destroy all these bases in a few hours?

　　Who will fund the center? Surprise, surprise! The center’s own budget report said: "In the past five years, 1% of the center’s operating budget came from the US government. During the same period, 8% of the center’s budget came from American foundations, companies or individuals. "

　　An article in the Atlantic in July quoted famous people such as General Philip Davidson, who is in charge of the US military in Asia, and declared: "If a war breaks out between the United States and China, the conflict between the two most powerful armies in the world will be very terrible. The United States is likely to fail. "

　　Earlier this year, Davidson had warned — — Or claim — — The United States is surrendering control of the South China Sea to China.

　　The famous anti-China magazine Foreign Policy also had an article last month — — Consistent with all other warnings — — Claiming that Taiwan Province has all the flashy weapons, but no ammunition or logistical support. What about the conclusion? Taiwan Province needs to buy more expensive weapons from the United States, and the United States also needs to strengthen Taiwan Province’s defense.

　　In the past 20 years, the United States has been waging wars incessantly. In the past 70 years, the US military has intervened in 32 countries. The current defense budget of the United States far exceeds the sum of the defense budgets of the seven countries behind it. For every $1 China spends on the military, the United States spends $3.

　　America may not be a shining city on the top of a mountain, but it is still the biggest muscle on the market.

"What kind of China have you seen? Is it 9.6 million square kilometers? Or is it 3 million square kilometers? Is it the world where the four seasons rotate, or the music played by ice and fire? " The familiar prologue makes a magnificent picture unfold to us.

Aerial photography of China is produced by CCTV Recording Channel of Central Radio and Television General Station, which is the most representative documentary of China geography. It uses high-altitude photography to make up for human visual defects and broaden human perspectives. But it is not only a visual journey, but also a humanistic journey and a spiritual journey.

one

Create the ultimate visual feast

The shooting of the series of documentaries "Aerial Photography of China" can be said to be the most extensive and largest aerial shooting project in China, with the longest flight time and the first time to realize the narrative of all aerial images. The characteristic of aerial photography lies in its unique angle and scenery, and the picture constructed by this angle and scenery is not available in general ground photography.

The biggest difficulty in Aerial China is how to tell the story with aerial lens. First of all, the movement of the lens is presented in the form of slow browsing. In Aerial China, there are not many shots with strong visual impact, such as high speed and hedging. Instead, through a simple browsing method, the audience is presented with the scenery of the motherland that they have never seen before, and the audience is shocked and moved in a quiet way. The aerial photography practice of Aerial Photography China effectively combines aerial photography technology with attracting audiences, creating a unique structural form similar to travel experience.

Take the second season as an example, its aerial photography technology and post-production have improved compared with the first season. In the second season, the camera will be zoomed up to places that people can’t reach at ordinary times and see the wonders that belong to the sky. It can be said that the second season better conveys the theme and embodies the people-oriented attitude in both the early shooting and the late production. At the same time, it also embodies the spirit of the Chinese nation’s courage to innovate and constantly break through.

In order to present the gorgeous landscape in a wider space, the film crew also used orbiting satellites to present multi-level images. The satellite image of Zhoushan Islands in Zhejiang is the first time that Aerial Photography of China has used satellites to collect data. Through satellite images to assist the later processing, the audience can clearly see the plains and water systems. In addition, it also used VR photography for the first time to present special effects on plane images. For example, the picture of the interchange of two rivers in Jiangsu was presented by VR technology.

At the same time, some parts of it also adopt the shooting method of flying at an ultra-low altitude close to the ground with a mirror to the end. In "Sichuan", Sichuan cuisine and Sichuan opera are presented in series through the shooting technique of one mirror to the end, which makes the audience’s impression of Sichuan more three-dimensional. In "Zhejiang", the aerial plane suddenly entered the fish pond to shoot the underwater world, and skillfully presented the ecological circular agriculture model on the Hangjiahu Plain to the audience in a limited time.

Although the macro-shooting method of aerial photography is adopted throughout the film, its content itself is still close to the people, and the film’s handling method is also very delicate and full of visual beauty. It’s different from the fast-paced and visual-impact shots typed in Haocaiwu. The overall lens of this film presents a gentle and magnificent visual style, which coexists with softness and fortitude. It is a lens language with a unique China style.

In content, it has always been gradually developed around people’s lives. For example, in Inner Mongolia, the aerial plane lowered its height and went deep into the camel race field in Inner Mongolia, close to the people to shoot this unique folk competition. There are many records like this, all of which reflect the unique culture and story of China. The whole documentary is solid in content, and there is no flashy feeling, which makes it a unique expression of China.

The charm of sound language

Documentary is an art of audio-visual combination. In the process of communication, sound language often affects the audience’s understanding of the director’s intention. From the sound point of view, the music in Aerial Photography of China series is also the finishing touch, which endows this series of works with soul. In the series "Aerial Photography of China", because the aerial images give the audience a soft and ethereal feeling, the rhythm of the music needs to be changed, and the music needs to be pleasing to the eye, which is suitable for the head-up and communication tone of the documentary itself. At the same time, the narration has an affinity tone, which is in line with the "love of the earth" contained in the theme of this series.

Take the opening song of the first season of Aerial Photography of China as an example: it begins with the piano and violin wandering, just like waking up in the mist in the morning, with the opening commentary of the documentary. In the middle section, drums and cello complement each other, drums dominate the rhythm, cello leads the melody, expressing implicit rhythm and deep vitality, which coincides with the aesthetics of the East. In the latter stage, the combination of female high-pitched singing and string concerto achieved the emotional catharsis and release of the audience.

In addition, the commentary full of Chinese cultural heritage also plays a very important role, which not only accurately explains the content of the picture and conveys the theme, but also reflects the artistic charm of Chinese cultural rhetoric.

For example, in the second season of Aerial Photography of China, almost every episode will talk about some contents about animals and plants. If the commentary is only a very straightforward and straightforward introduction, and then the relevant knowledge is explained, it will look like a science and education film lacking characteristics. However, the commentary in this film uses a lot of rhetorical devices such as metaphor and personification, which is very vivid and has a strong sense of communication.

Commentary gives animals and plants more vivid souls, which is fascinating and leaves a deep impression on the audience. For example, in Gansu, it is said that "in the arms of the Yellow River, it is Longwan Village …" Here, the anthropomorphic technique is used. Since ancient times, the Yellow River has been regarded as the "mother river" of the Chinese nation. Here, the director borrowed this allusion to describe the Yellow River as a person with arms and holding her people.

When talking about the colorful Danxia in Zhangye City, "nature is like an unintentional work that knocks over the palette, which can let us understand what real talent is." Here, the colorful Danxia Mountain formed by mineral precipitation is compared to the color palette knocked over by nature, which is very accurate. The combination of sound and picture gives the audience a feeling of sudden realization, creates an atmosphere with language, stimulates the divergent thinking of the audience, increases the enjoyment of the audience’s psychological beauty and resonates. Although it is a documentary, the director is very good at telling stories, highlighting details, setting suspense, decorating monotonous empty scenes vividly and simply, and combining artistry with interest.

tell China’s stories well

An excellent documentary can be used as an image material bearing the national cultural connotation in cross-cultural communication, which can be spread all over the world and delivered to the global audience with the help of technical carriers. Different from other video works of literary and artistic creation, documentary has its own unique non-fiction essence. It uses real and exquisite pictures, beautiful music and rich narration to form a vivid film with artistic aesthetic value, which provides the possibility for spreading the national image.

"Prone" is an externalized shooting angle, and "backward" is an internalized mental state. The documentary series Aerial Photography of China not only shows the rich and magical natural landscape of China and the high-rise buildings and urban construction of China, but also embodies the spirit of patriotism. It allows the audience to appreciate the ecological beauty of China from high altitude with an objective perspective and a "bird" perspective. The film abandons the traditional idea that the theme comes first, but lets the facts speak for themselves.

In the filming, the film crew captured many rare wild animals that faded out of public view, such as golden monkey, takin, Zhu, Siberian tiger, brown giant panda, etc. These animals have been in a crisis of survival for many years due to ecological deterioration, and ecological improvement in recent years has made them return to nature. These stories told in the film can convey to the audience the efforts made by the China government in protecting the environment, and also respond to the development concept of "harmonious coexistence between man and nature" and Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets.

While photographing the beauty of ecology, Aerial Photography of China also photographed sandstorms, extreme cold and other bad weather, which made the audience realize that there is still a long way to go to build an ecological China. The film shows the original ecological appearance in the form of overlooking, and its visual impact and spiritual shock are beyond the reach of ordinary documentaries. The new image of ecological China has reached a new height in Aerial Photography of China.

The values conveyed by documentary with facts are patriotism at home. In Xinjiang, there is a National Flag of the People’s Republic of China pattern composed of peppers on the ground, which makes the audience feel a strong sense of national pride. This is an expression of the Chinese dream, and at the same time, it also conveys the community of human destiny of peace, development, cooperation and common prosperity, and inherits the social ideal of ancient China, where heaven and man are one and the world is one. The Chinese dream and the community of human destiny complement each other. The development of the Chinese dream can not be separated from the mutual help and mutual benefit of all countries in the era of global village, and the construction of the community of human destiny can not be separated from the participation of China, an indispensable protagonist.

The series of documentaries "Aerial Photography of China" is the first documentary in China that tells stories entirely by aerial photography. It builds an image space independent of the ground by plane, and shows the customs of the Chinese nation from south to north and from east to west from a defamiliarization perspective. It satisfies the visual and emotional expectations of the audience, spreads the profound connotation of culture in the beauty of mountains and seas, and makes the profoundness of humanity and the beauty of nature blend seamlessly. The traditional heavy history and the contemporary prosperous world form a harmonious beauty, which truly satisfies both refined and popular tastes.

It also proves by practice that it is possible to establish a complete narrative system only by aerial photography. While constantly pursuing higher scores and higher tolerance of aerial photography quality, we should also pursue the creation of image space creativity and aesthetic artistic conception of aerial photography, so as to achieve the lofty and graceful picture expression brought by the combination of macro and micro.

　　BEIJING, April 29 (Xinhua) According to the website of the State Administration of Taxation, recently, the State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Team of the State Commission for Discipline Inspection in State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China informed the tax system of six typical spiritual problems that violated the eight central regulations.

　　1. Xu Faqiang, member of the Party Committee and deputy director of the Taxation Bureau of zhongwei City, State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China, received a total of RMB 5,000 from the management clients in violation of regulations, and was given a warning by the party.

　　2. Li Lingqing, Secretary of the Party Committee and Director of the Taxation Bureau of Guilin Foreign Economic Development Zone, Haikou, State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China, illegally accepted gifts from management clients, and had other disciplinary problems, and was severely warned by the party and given a heavier administrative record.

　　3. Peng Nianhui, former director of the Inspection Bureau of Zunyi City, State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China, has repeatedly accepted gifts from management clients, illegally accepted banquets and tourism activities arranged by management clients, and has other violations of discipline and law and suspected crimes, and was expelled from the party and dismissed from public office; Gong Guangyi, the former Party Secretary and Director of the Taxation Bureau of Zunyi Economic and Technological Development Zone in State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China, received gifts from the management clients, with a total value of 25,600 yuan, and there were other violations of discipline and law. He was dismissed from his post in the Party and demoted from his post.

　　4. Zhang Benquan, deputy director of the Inspection Bureau of the Taxation Bureau of Leshan City, State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China, illegally accepted gifts and gifts from management clients, with a total value of 17,000 yuan, which was severely punished by the party; Huang Zhiwei, an employee of the Central District Taxation Bureau of Leshan City, State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China, received a total of RMB 4,400 from the management clients in violation of regulations, and was given a warning by the Party.

　　The circular pointed out that the above-mentioned six violations of discipline and discipline reflected that under the new situation of comprehensively and strictly administering the Party in depth, there were still a few party member cadres who were lucky enough to relax their requirements and went their own way. With the May Day and Dragon Boat Festival approaching in 2020, the party committees of tax bureaus at all levels should earnestly shoulder the main responsibility and resolutely implement the spirit of the eight central regulations and their implementation rules; Discipline inspection institutions at all levels of the tax system should strengthen supervision and inspection, strictly investigate and deal with the problem of violation of discipline against the wind, and never tolerate it, so as to create a good atmosphere of cleanliness and integrity.

　　Beijing, January 4 (Reporter Li Jinlei) In 2018, the work of benefiting people’s livelihood will continue to advance. Among them, five insurances and one gold, which are closely related to ordinary people, will usher in at least five major changes, which will have a beneficial impact on your income and life.

　　Change 1: the first step of the national overall planning of endowment insurance

　　The National Conference on Human Resources and Social Security held recently proposed that in 2018, the universal enrollment plan should be fully implemented. Implement the central adjustment system for basic old-age insurance funds.

　　The central adjustment system of the basic old-age insurance fund is the first step taken by the national overall planning of old-age insurance. According to the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, this will balance the burden of old-age insurance caused by the large difference in dependency ratio between regions due to population structure, especially population mobility, adjust the surplus and deficiency, and further play the role of mutual assistance and mutual assistance of old-age insurance nationwide.

　　"China’s regional development is very uneven, and the degree of aging is very different. Heilongjiang is the most difficult province to pay for the basic old-age insurance fund at present, with a dependency ratio of 1:3, while the highest in Guangdong is 9:1." Yin Weimin, Minister of Human Resources and Social Security, said earlier that the current balance of the basic old-age insurance fund is about 400 billion yuan each year, with a cumulative balance of more than 4 trillion yuan, which can support the distribution for 16 months. The implementation of national overall planning is to solve the imbalance between provinces.

　　Change 2: It is planned to pay pension and medical insurance for the unemployed.

　　The national conference on human resources and social security proposed to continue to extend the policy of reducing social insurance rates in stages for one year. Do a good job in the revision and implementation of unemployment insurance regulations.

　　In November 2017, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security publicly solicited opinions on the Unemployment Insurance Regulations (Revised Draft for Comment). Compared with the current regulations, in the opinion draft, the basic old-age insurance premium, vocational skill appraisal subsidy and entrepreneurship subsidy for the unemployed are added, and the medical subsidy is adjusted to pay the basic medical insurance premium.

　　The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security pointed out that the payment of basic old-age insurance premiums has solved the problem of the interruption of the payment of old-age insurance for the unemployed and relieved the worries of the unemployed. Paying the basic medical insurance premium ensures that the unemployed enjoy medical insurance benefits, and solves the problem of "getting medical care for the sick" during the period when the unemployed receive the payment.

　　Change 3: You may increase a retirement income.

　　Since February 1, 2018, the "Enterprise Annuity Measures" will be officially implemented. Enterprise annuity is a supplementary old-age insurance system independently established by enterprises and their employees through collective consultation on the basis of participating in the basic old-age insurance according to law, and it is an important part of the second pillar of China’s multi-level old-age insurance system.

　　According to the regulations, the expenses required for enterprise annuities are jointly paid by enterprises and individual employees. The enterprise payment shall not exceed 8% of the total wages of the employees of the enterprise every year.

　　By the end of 2016, 76,000 enterprises had established enterprise annuities nationwide, with 23.25 million employees and accumulated funds of 1.1 trillion yuan. According to the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, employees’ participation in enterprise annuities is conducive to adding a pension accumulation on the basis of basic old-age insurance, and further improving the income level and quality of life after retirement.

　　Change 4: Some state-owned assets will continue to enrich the social security fund.

　　According to the Implementation Plan of Transferring Part of State-owned Capital to Enrich Social Security Fund published by the State Council, it is clear that the transfer ratio is unified to 10% of the state-owned shares of enterprises.

　　The plan requires that some central enterprises and some provinces be selected for pilot projects in 2017. On the basis of summarizing the pilot experience, in 2018 and beyond, the state-owned shares of other qualified central management enterprises, enterprises run by central administrative institutions and central financial institutions will be transferred in batches, and the transfer will be completed as soon as possible.

　　Zhang Yinghua, executive researcher of the World Social Security Research Center of China Academy of Social Sciences, told the reporter of Zhongxin.com that with the "blood transfusion" of the social security fund, the problem of pension gap will be alleviated, and the gap will not be transferred to the next generation, so as to realize intergenerational equity, and at the same time, it will help to ensure the timely and full payment of pensions and resolve the impact of the aging population on the old-age insurance system.

　　Change 5: It will be easier to buy a house with a housing provident fund loan.

　　Housing accumulation fund can effectively reduce the burden of employees buying houses. According to estimates, a personal housing loan with a quota of 1 million yuan and a term of 20 years can save more than 200,000 yuan in interest expenses than a personal housing loan from a commercial bank. Recently, however, some real estate development enterprises refused to let buyers use housing provident fund loans, which seriously damaged the legitimate rights and interests of paid employees.

　　To this end, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and other departments recently jointly issued the Notice on Safeguarding the Rights and Interests of Employees’ Housing Provident Fund Loans, requiring real estate development enterprises not to restrict, obstruct or refuse buyers to use housing provident fund loans by raising housing sales prices or reducing price discounts, and not to require buyers to sign a written document voluntarily giving up their housing provident fund loan rights.

　　The "Notice" clarifies that paid employees can complain and report the refusal of housing provident fund loans by real estate development enterprises and housing sales intermediaries through channels such as the 12345 citizen hotline and the 12329 housing provident fund service hotline.

　　With the implementation of these regulatory measures, it is expected that it will be easier for employees to buy houses with housing provident fund loans, and they will be able to really enjoy the benefits brought by housing provident fund. (End)

3. A precision-guided arms race was staged in the Middle East

Precision guided weapons began to spread on a large scale in the Middle East. Precision guided weapons, mainly composed of anti-ship and anti-tank missiles, are increasingly used by non-state actors in the Middle East, such as Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthi armed forces in Yemen and the extremist organization "Islamic State". Military groups with light weapons can challenge and sometimes even defeat the national army. Including Qatar, Egypt, Israel, Iran and other countries have also purchased new air-launched precision guided weapons on a large scale, which is having a far-reaching strategic impact on the pattern in the Middle East.
