On the evening of June 14, Xiabuxiabu issued an announcement stating that its board of directors had held an extraordinary general meeting to remove Zhao Yi as an executive director.

In terms of the reasons for the recall, the Xiabuxiabu Board of Directors believes that Zhao Yi’s management methods and concepts are significantly different from those of other members of the board of directors, and that allowing Zhao Yi to continue to participate in the management of the company will not be in the overall best interests of the company and its shareholders. The board of directors believes that if the recall takes effect, it will not have a material adverse effect on the group’s operations.

It is worth mentioning that on May 20 this year, Zhao Yigang was dismissed from the post of chief executive officer of Xiabuxiabu.

Within two months, there have been three personnel changes in the senior management of Xiabuxiabu.

In terms of stock price, as of the close of trading on June 15, Xiabuxiabu’s share price has fallen 68.5% from the high in February this year to 8.5 Hong Kong dollars per share. The market value has evaporated by more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars (about 16.5 billion yuan) in four months.

Three high-level personnel changes during the year, the stock price fell by nearly 70%

On May 20 this year, Xiabuxiabu issued an announcement stating that Zhao Yi was dismissed from the post of Xiabuxiabu’s chief executive officer because the performance of some of the group’s sub-brands failed to meet the expectations of the board of directors.

On May 21, He Guangqi, the founder and chairman of the board of directors of Xiabuxiabu, told the media including Sohu Finance that the appropriate flow of company personnel is a good thing for the group, because Xiabuxiabu’s previous performance in East China and South China was not good. It’s too ideal, so I consider taking over the surgeon’s adjustment and promotion personally.

According to Wind data, Zhao Yi joined Xiabuxiabu on November 12, 2012, and is mainly responsible for group auditing, accounting, financial management and IT-related affairs. From November 2012 to August 2019, Zhao Yi was the chief financial officer of Xiabuxiabu; from August 2019 to May 2021, Zhao Yi was the executive director and chief executive officer of Xiabuxiabu.

Before joining Xiabuxiabu, Zhao Yi served as the Commercial Manager of Unilever Services Co., Ltd., the Director of Retail Operations of Sony Ericsson, and the Chief Financial Officer of McDonald’s North.

As early as October 2019, Xiabuxiabu launched a young sub-brand “in xiabuxiabu”. Zhao Yi once publicly stated that the brand was launched by him personally, optimistic about the high-end development of small hot pot, and hoped to make the “one person, one pot” small hot pot to the extreme.

It is reported that the unit price of “in xiabuxiabu” is around 110 yuan, which is between Xiabuxiabu and Coucuo. So far, the brand has only opened two stores in Shanghai and Beijing.

As of last night’s announcement, Zhao Yi has been removed from the position of executive director of Xiabuxiabu, and currently has no current position in Xiabuxiabu.

It is worth noting that this is also the third change in Xiabuxiabu’s senior personnel in the past two months.

In April of this year, Zhang Zhenwei, the COO of the Coucou brand under Xiabuxiabu, confirmed to Sohu Finance that he would no longer serve as the COO of Coucou Catering from April 15th, and at the same time step down from all other positions related to Xiabu Xiabu Group and Coucou Catering.

Zhang Zhenwei revealed that he left Coucou for his current new catering business project.

Goldman Sachs previously issued a report stating that Zhang Zhenwei, CEO of Coucou, under Xiabuxiabu, has strong execution and investors need to pay attention to the risks associated with the departure of Coucou’s CEO. On the day Zhang Zhenwei announced his resignation, Xiabuxiabu’s share price fell nearly 15%.

The executives have left their posts successively, and the current major operations of the various brands of Xiabuxiabu are under the unified responsibility of the chairman He Guangqi.

It is reported that He Guangqi is the founder of Xiabuxiabu and serves as the chairman of the board of directors, chief executive officer and executive director of Xiabuxiabu. He is mainly responsible for formulating the group’s overall development strategy and business plan. He has more than 20 years of experience in the catering industry. Up to now, He Guangqi holds 41.46% of the shares of Xiabuxiabu.

One-fifth of the goal of opening stores in 2021 will be completed in half a year, and the number of new stores will be lowered

As of the close on June 15, the share price of Xiabuxiabu was reported at 8.5 Hong Kong dollars per share, a drop of nearly 70% from the February high. The market value had evaporated by more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars (about 16.5 billion yuan) in four months.

Except for frequent high-level turmoil, Xiabuxiabu’s financial data has been bleak in recent years, and there has been no significant improvement in the later stages of the epidemic.

The financial report shows that Xiabuxiabu will achieve revenue of 5.455 billion yuan in 2020, a year-on-year decrease of 9.5%; net profit attributable to shareholders is 1.837 million yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 99.4%; net loss after non-deduction is 180 million yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 176.36%.

Sohu Finance found that Xiabuxiabu’s net profit growth rate has shown a downward trend for five consecutive years. From 2016 to 2020, Xiabuxiabu’s net profit growth rate was 39.74%, 14.17%, 10.07%, -37.71% and -99.36%, respectively.

In addition, the Taiwan turnover rate of Xiabuxiabu has also been declining year by year. From 2017 to 2020, the Taiwan turnover rate was 3.3, 2.8, 2.6 and 2.3 respectively.

As the main growth engine of Xiabuxiabu in recent years, Cocoa Hotpot will contribute 31% of total revenue in 2020. However, the turnover rate in 2020 will also drop from 2.9 in 2019 to 2.5.

In 2020, Xiabuxiabu will add 77 stores, including 39 Xiabuxiabu restaurants and 38 Coucuo restaurants, bringing the total number of restaurants to 1,201.

Previously, Xiabuxiabu had expected to open 100 new stores in 2021, but as of May 21 this year, it only opened 20 new stores, which is far below the target.

Xiabuxiabu Group CFO Yu Xiaofang previously stated that in order to solve the current development bottleneck, the group has made a series of adjustments. Previously, the vice president of development in charge of Cou Cou has also been transferred to the group level while managing Cou Cou and Xiabuxia. Bu, the speed of opening stores will also accelerate in the future.

He Guangqi told Sohu Finance that he would lower the target number of stores this year.

“Coucuo’s business will continue to focus on opening stores and the continued growth of the old store business in the short term. Before this, the tea and beverages part has declined, mainly due to the unavailability of imported raw materials due to the epidemic.” He Guangqi said.

Signs of skin infection with corticosteroids. Steps to treat and restore skin Corticosteroid-infected skin can be completely improved, but the extent of skin recovery depends on the health and condition of each person’s skin. Moreover, the patient must be very patient and careful. The disease can be completely cured if detected early and the patient follows the treatment process properly. The steps below apply only to the case of using the cream mix for less than 1 year, the less time used, the higher the possibility of cure and recovery. In case of using a cream containing corticosteroids for a longer time, it is necessary to follow a separate treatment regimen of a dermatologist. Reducing and spacing out the frequency of using products containing corticosteroids: The principle is to slowly wean off so that the skin can adapt, so limit the application of the cream and gradually reduce the duration of application, until it is completely stopped. The time for each reduction in the number of applications is about 1-2 weeks. If you stop applying it suddenly, the skin will become worse, more acne-prone, itchy, dry, very uncomfortable. You can use acne medication, but only as prescribed by your doctor. Absolutely do not go to the spa to squeeze acne, it will be very easy to pit your face. You should let the acne break and pick it up gently. Do not take any more antibiotics or acne medications, because once the acne flares up, it will come up again. Care and protect the skin carefully during the treatment: Skin protection is a very important step to support the treatment. Because during the treatment, the skin becomes very weak and sensitive, the patches of peeling and blisters are dense. If you are not careful and protect the skin carefully, bacteria will easily penetrate, causing the skin to become infected. This interferes with the regeneration and healing process, if more severe, it will cause the skin to die. It is recommended to use a cleanser specifically for acne-sensitive skin, usually in the form of a non-foaming or very mild foaming milk cream, with a skin-friendly pH (between 5.0 and 6.0) to avoid causing dryness, use 2 times /day in the morning and evening. Do not use oily, foamy or granular cleansers because it can easily irritate the skin. If the skin is too weak, with blood veins, peeling skin, itching and discomfort, daily use of 0.9% sodium chloride physiological saline should be used to wash your face. Salt has the effect of reducing inflammation, reducing itching, antiseptic, removing dead skin … The most basic thing is to use sunscreen, cover it carefully when going out or in a dusty environment.

For a long time, Sogou Input Method and Xunfei Input Method have been loved and used by the majority of users as the two mainstream input methods. Now let’s talk about the most common Sogou input method. I feel that when I started to touch mobile phones and computers, I used the input method that comes with the device to call it awkward. It is really not smooth at all and it is too concise. Therefore, using Sogou input method has become a habit of many people. After all, Sogou can set the skin on its own and switch it at will, and the font can also be adjusted. The key point is that some backgrounds can also be set to dynamic, which will feel vivid when used.

However, recently several major input methods, including Sogou, have been removed from the app stores of Apple, Huawei and other manufacturers. The reason can be imagined. Although Sogou has a good experience in entertainment, it is undeniable that we are using it. In the process, for example, an item or key thing mentioned in WeChat chat will often appear. When you switch to the shopping platform to protect the interface of other websites, these records will automatically be clickable. This is actually a privacy leak. Through the search engine Obtain, and then push to the user.

WeChat has also proposed to launch a specially customized input method that comes with WeChat, in response to the privacy leakage issues raised by many users, but it is only planned that it has not launched an adapted input method.

There are also other manufacturers that provide some privacy protection in terms of functionality in response to this situation. For example, Xiaomi MIUI12 launches the clipboard privacy protection function. If the user copies a piece of text and then jumps to another application interface, the other application interface detects that this piece of content wants to be accessed and read, and the user’s consent must be obtained. Otherwise, there is no permission, which on the one hand white tigers the user’s privacy and security.

However, it is true that the current mainstream input methods should standardize privacy protection functions, rather than deduct points in user experience.

Photo: DW With a total length of 623 km, NordLink is one of the longest undersea cables in the world, connecting the town of Tonstad in southern Norway to the mouth of the Elbe river in northern Germany. This cable route helps to exchange wind and solar energy produced in Germany for hydroelectric power produced in Norway, helping the two countries make up for the shortfall in electricity production due to fluctuations in the amount of wind and sun. The project is expected to help provide electricity for about 3.6 million households, which has been in operation since April, but officially opened on May 27. According to German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the project is really a big step towards a sustainable and future-friendly energy supply for Germany.

Illustration. https://tinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn In a statement released alongside a major new report, the Paris-based organization said achieving the net zero emissions target “Net Zero” would require an “unprecedented transformation”. about how energy is produced, transported and used globally”. In a clear indication of the amount of work that needs to be done, the IEA report said existing commitments fell “far below what is needed to achieve net-zero global emissions by”. year 2050″. According to the IEA’s roadmap to achieve Net Zero by 2050, more than 400 “milestones” will need to be crossed. These include phasing out new fossil fuel sales by 2025 and ending sales of internal combustion engine cars by 2035. In addition, there should be no “investment in new fossil fuel supply projects, and no further final investment decisions for new coal plants”. Preliminary figures from the US Energy Information Administration show that: The share of natural gas and coal in utility-scale power generation in 2020 is 40.3% and 19.3%, respectively. . According to the IEA scenario, solar and wind photovoltaic will become the leading source of electricity for the planet before the end of the decade, accounting for nearly 70% of electricity production by 2050. According to the IEA’s roadmap, solar energy will become “the largest source of total energy on the planet” by the middle of this century. In contrast, fossil fuels will see their market share “fall from almost four-fifths of total energy supply today to more than one-fifth.” Employment in the clean energy sector will increase by 14 million people in the period to 2030, while the role in the oil and gas and coal sectors will decrease by about 5 million people. “Our roadmap shows the priority actions needed today to ensure that the opportunity for net zero emissions by 2050 is narrow but still attainable,” said Fatih Birol, CEO. of the IEA, said in a statement. “The scale and speed of the efforts required by this important and formidable goal, our best chance of tackling climate change and limiting global warming to 1.5 °C makes this perhaps the biggest challenge humanity has ever faced,” added Birol. Cutting anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions to Net zero by 2050 is considered critical once the 1.5°C target is reached. Later this year, the COP26 summit will take place in the Scottish city of Glasgow. This is seen as a hugely important event, with many hoping it will act as a catalyst for governments to step up their climate ambitions to achieve the goals set out in the Paris Agreement. . The reality shows how challenging the IEA’s roadmap is. As energy companies are still discovering new oil fields, while in countries like the United States fossil fuels continue to play an important role in electricity generation. https://tinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn

Berkeley Lab is pursuing negative emission technologies and related research to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. According to Jeffrey Long, senior scientist in the Berkeley Laboratory’s Materials Science Department, UC Berkeley Professor of Chemistry, MOFs are highly porous solid materials that act like a sponge. They are capable of absorbing large amounts of a specific gas molecule, like CO2. A special feature of MOFs is its high internal surface area. Therefore, if properly designed, a small amount of MOF can remove large amounts of CO2 from the flue gases produced during the burning of fossil fuels. “We have shown that MOFs can capture and release CO2, using a much smaller temperature change than is required by other technologies. This offers a great advantage over conventional methods of CO2 capture. Variations of MOF can be effective in removing CO2 from other gas mixtures, including biogas, natural gas and even directly from the air, ”explained Mr. Long. However, this expert emphasized, reducing the cost of direct gas collection is essential, because this process is extremely expensive. The cost of removing CO2 with such a technology is at 500 – 1,000 USD / ton. Therefore, Mr. Long said that in the future, researchers will create more efficient materials. As a result, it helps to reduce costs below 100 USD / ton. Besides, the main issue is the amount of energy required to regenerate the adsorbent. This means that the scientists want to release CO2 in its pure form. As a result, the material can then be reused to capture more CO2. “One of our research goals is to develop materials with high capacity, high capture rate, fast kinetics for CO2 adsorption and low regeneration temperature. At the same time, limit the co-adsorption of water so as not to waste energy on the desorption process “, Mr. Long said. According to the scientist, it is possible to find a way to achieve below $ 100 for each ton of CO2 removed from the air. However, scientists will have to do much of the research needed to achieve that. “We need to really rethink some of the ways materials are designed and understand how to manipulate things like delta-S (entropy) to adsorb CO2, so that less heat is needed to release CO2,” Mr. Long stressed.

Ayanna Williams, who holds the record for having the longest manicure in the world Williams was recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records in 2017 with a nail length of 5.7 meters. At that time, she had spent two bottles of paint and 20 hours of makeup on her nails. Before cutting it off last weekend, the length of her nails was up to 7.3 m. Dermatologist Allison Readinger, who directly cut Williams’ nails, used a small electric saw to safely cut each nail. Ayanna Williams shared that she feels bittersweet when she has to separate her nails that have been attached to her since the 1990s. will miss them, it may take a while, but now it’s time to let go. ” A close-up of the world’s longest manicure. Williams has been an avid manicure since a young age, asking her mother how long her nails were and if she could paint her favorite colors. Williams also revealed that his decision to cut nails stems from difficulties in performing everyday tasks.

“With my daily activities, I have to be very careful if I don’t want to damage my nails. I can’t do some jobs like washing dishes or bed sheets,” she said.

Williams’ nail set is currently preserved at a museum specializing in the collection of exotic items in Orlando, Florida.

“Huawei’s cooperative car has a much better experience than Tesla”

“6G should be introduced to the market around 2030”

……

From April 12th to 14th, the Huawei Analyst Conference was held in Shenzhen. Under heavy pressure, how will the future go? Rotating Chairman Xu Zhijun elaborated on the five key strategic measures in the future and responded to hot topics such as “sanctions”, “cloud business structure adjustment”, “car building”, and “6G”.

After being suppressed by three rounds of US bans, Huawei still survived. The 2020 financial report shows that Huawei has achieved both revenue and net profit growth. Xu Zhijun believes that “performance is in line with expectations.” However, the crisis has quietly emerged. Huawei’s 2020 revenue growth rate is the lowest in the past 10 years. Before this, Huawei has maintained a double-digit growth rate for 6 consecutive years.

Under the ban, Huawei’s mobile phone business was most affected. Its shipments fell out of the top five in Q4 last year. The continuity of 5G base station chip supply was also questioned, and the ballast business inevitably fell into a “deceleration” state.

Reducing chip dependence and increasing the proportion of software revenue has become the key to Huawei’s “survival”. It can be found that the current Hongmeng, cloud business, and automotive businesses that Huawei focuses on are all focused on the software layer, and ecological construction has become an important breakthrough point.

“The goal for this year is to survive, but we still have to strive to live a little bit better.” Xu Zhijun said frankly that he has no illusions about Huawei being removed from the entity list and will work and live on the entity list for a long time.

Increase software revenue and solve continuous supply chain problems

Facing the worries of the outside world, Xu Zhijun gave a “centring agent” at the analyst conference and proposed five key strategic measures for the future.

1. It is necessary to optimize the industry mix and enhance the resilience of the industry, especially to enhance software capabilities, strengthen investment in advanced technology and weakly related industries and smart auto parts industry investment; 2. To promote the full play of 5G value, define 5.5G, and lead the continuous evolution of 5G; 3 .User-centered to create a seamless smart experience in all scenarios; 4. Reduce energy consumption through technological innovation and realize a low-carbon society; 5. Work hard to solve the problem of continuous supply.

Regarding optimizing industry mix and enhancing software capabilities. Xu Zhijun pointed out that he hopes to further use the improvement of software capabilities to reduce the demand for and dependence on chips, and at the same time enhance the competitiveness of products. At the end of November 2018, Huawei’s board of directors passed a decision to invest US$2 billion to improve the company’s software engineering capabilities. Now Huawei will continue to invest unswervingly to improve the entire Huawei’s software engineering capabilities within a five-year cycle. One step.

He said that the recent adjustments to the organization and cadres of the cloud and computing BG are because we believe that the core of the cloud is software, and we hope to strengthen the organization of the software and decouple it from the hardware. At the same time, increase investment and better face the future to achieve the growth of the software industry.

Xu Zhijun believes that it is necessary to continue to increase investment in the smart car parts industry, especially in autonomous driving software. “The goal is to realize driverless cars. Once realized, it will subvert almost all industries related to cars. This is also the most disruptive industrial change that can be seen in 10 years.”

In terms of 5G business, Xu Zhijun said that the most important thing is to increase the development of 5G To C, speed up the improvement of 5G To B solutions, and strengthen the large-scale commercialization of 5G To B. In terms of 5G To B, as of 2020, Huawei has participated in the practice of more than 3,000 innovative projects around the world, and signed more than 1,000 5G To B project contracts in more than 20 industries with operators and partners.

In terms of seamless experience in all scenarios, Xu Zhijun pointed out that based on HarmonyOS and HMS, Huawei will continue to enrich the two ecosystems of hardware and services together with developers and ecological partners. “It is expected that in 2021, 40+ mainstream brands and 100 million devices will become the new entrance to the HarmonyOS experience.”

More than $1 billion has been invested in the research and development of smart car parts

“Xiaomi has built cars, why doesn’t Huawei build cars?” Xu Zhijun said, this question has been asked many times, and some think that Huawei has the brand and technical capabilities and should build cars.

In fact, Huawei’s decision to “not build a car” was made carefully after years of discussion. Xu Zhijun said that Huawei began to conduct car-related research in 2012, when a car networking laboratory was established under the 2012 laboratory.

“But as research continues to move forward, the automotive industry is constantly changing, from a simple electric car to a self-driving car.” Xu Zhijun said that he communicated with many high-level auto companies and found that the industry The industry needs Huawei’s ICT capabilities more than Huawei’s brand.

In 2018, Huawei’s management team met in Sanya and made a decision: it is clear that Huawei will not build cars and help car companies build good cars. “This decision has not changed so far.”

At present, Huawei chooses to use the “Huawei inside” approach to support car companies to build their sub-brands. “We have selected three car companies and launched three sub-brand cars, such as BAIC ARC FOX. A series of cars will be launched in the fourth quarter. We have also cooperated with Chongqing Changan and Guangzhou Automobile.”

“Investment in research and development of smart car parts this year exceeded 1 billion US dollars.” Xu Zhijun pointed out that smart car BU is an industry that Huawei has invested heavily in. It has its own sales, delivery, and other organizational capabilities. It is a function of the company in addition to consumer BG. The most complete BU.

Xu Zhijun believes that China now needs 30 million cars a year, and there will be more in the future. Even if it is only in the Chinese market, it is enough to get an average of 10,000 yuan in income from each car every year.

“At the Shanghai Auto Show in April, the “Huawei inside” cooperation mode car will provide everyone with an autonomous driving experience in a densely populated urban area. Our team told me: they are the best and can It is much better than Tesla to achieve autonomous driving without intervention for 1,000 kilometers in the urban area.”

Let Cloud BU focus on developing cloud services

Recently, Huawei has intensively adjusted its cloud business, which has aroused heated discussions in the outside world. On April 9, Huawei announced the appointment of Rotating Chairman Xu Zhijun as Chairman of Huawei Cloud, and Huawei Consumer BG CEO Yu Chengdong was appointed as Huawei Cloud CEO.

A week ago, on April 2, Huawei announced the abolition of Cloud&AI (cloud and computing) BG. On March 30, Huawei just appointed 11 members including Zhang Pingan (formerly President of Consumer Business Cloud Services) as Cloud&AI BG managers; Zhang Pingan was appointed as Cloud BU President.

Regarding the changes in HUAWEI CLOUD, Xu Zhijun pointed out that the business model of HUAWEI CLOUD is an online business and a subscription business model. Therefore, Huawei Cloud has always been an independent BU operating end-to-end and relatively closed-loop.

Xu Zhijun said that when the cloud and computing BG was first established, he hoped that servers and storage could work together with Huawei Cloud. However, some problems were discovered during the coordination operation, which actually consumed the energy of the cloud team. “So now we return the server and storage, let the cloud BU concentrate on developing cloud services.”

“Strengthening the positioning of HUAWEI CLOUD BU is actually a measure of the company to strengthen its software investment.” Xu Zhijun emphasized, “Huawei CLOUD invests more in software and has its own industry rules. We hope that it will be more independent and develop more freely. To increase the proportion of software and services in Huawei’s total revenue.”

6G should be introduced to the market around 2030

Xu Zhijun proposed that 6G should be introduced to the market around 2030. “But what 6G is now, we don’t know yet.”

“The industry hopes that around 2030, like 4G and 5G, there is something to contribute to consumers and enterprises.” Xu Zhijun said that now we are mainly doing two aspects of work: First, work with the industry to work hard to define what 6G is. What? A 6G white paper may be released soon; second, do some basic research and research on cutting-edge technologies around the definition of 6G.

Xu Zhijun believes that if 6G application scenarios cannot be found, then 6G may not be needed. If 5G or 5.5G can help realize the scenarios and applications that can be imagined, then 6G is not needed.

Generally speaking, Xu Zhijun believes, “We are looking forward to 6G, but we don’t necessarily have 6G. But we still have to prepare, do research, and invest in the possible arrival of 6G.”

“But as research continues to move forward, the automotive industry is constantly changing, from a simple electric car to an autonomous car.” Xu Zhijun said that he had communicated with many high-level auto companies and found that the industry The industry needs Huawei’s ICT capabilities more than Huawei’s brand.

In 2018, Huawei’s management team met in Sanya and made a decision: it is clear that Huawei will not build cars and help car companies build good cars. “This decision has not changed so far.”

At present, Huawei chooses to use the “Huawei inside” approach to support car companies to build their sub-brands. “We have selected three car companies and launched three sub-brand cars, such as BAIC ARC FOX. A series of cars will be launched in the fourth quarter. We have also cooperated with Chongqing Changan and Guangzhou Automobile.”

“Investment in research and development of smart car parts this year exceeded 1 billion US dollars.” Xu Zhijun pointed out that smart car BU is an industry that Huawei has invested heavily in. It has its own sales, delivery, and other organizational capabilities. It is a function of the company in addition to consumer BG. The most complete BU.

Xu Zhijun believes that China now needs 30 million cars a year, and there will be more in the future. Even if it is only in the Chinese market, it is enough to get an average of 10,000 yuan in income from each car every year.

“At the Shanghai Auto Show in April, the “Huawei inside” cooperation mode car will provide everyone with an autonomous driving experience in a densely populated urban area. Our team told me: they are the best and can It is much better than Tesla to achieve autonomous driving without intervention for 1,000 kilometers in the urban area.”

Let Cloud BU focus on developing cloud services

Recently, Huawei has intensively adjusted its cloud business, which has aroused heated discussions in the outside world. On April 9, Huawei announced the appointment of Rotating Chairman Xu Zhijun as Chairman of Huawei Cloud, and Huawei Consumer BG CEO Yu Chengdong was appointed as Huawei Cloud CEO.

A week ago, on April 2, Huawei announced the abolition of Cloud&AI (cloud and computing) BG. On March 30, Huawei just appointed 11 members including Zhang Pingan (formerly President of Consumer Business Cloud Services) as Cloud&AI BG managers; Zhang Pingan was appointed as Cloud BU President.

Regarding the changes in HUAWEI CLOUD, Xu Zhijun pointed out that the business model of HUAWEI CLOUD is an online business and a subscription business model. Therefore, Huawei Cloud has always been an independent BU operating end-to-end and relatively closed-loop.

Xu Zhijun said that when the cloud and computing BG was first established, he hoped that servers and storage could work together with Huawei Cloud. However, some problems were discovered during the coordination operation, which actually consumed the energy of the cloud team. “So now we return the server and storage, let the cloud BU concentrate on developing cloud services.”

“Strengthening the positioning of HUAWEI CLOUD BU is actually a measure of the company to strengthen software investment.” Xu Zhijun emphasized, “Huawei CLOUD invests more in software and has its own industry rules. We hope that it will be more independent and develop with more freedom. To increase the proportion of software and services in Huawei’s total revenue.”

6G should be introduced to the market around 2030

Xu Zhijun proposed that 6G should be introduced to the market around 2030. “But what 6G is now, we don’t know yet.”

“The industry hopes that around 2030, like 4G and 5G, there is something to contribute to consumers and enterprises.” Xu Zhijun said that now we are mainly doing two aspects of work: First, work together with the industry to define what 6G is. What? A 6G white paper may be released soon; second, do some basic research and research on cutting-edge technologies around the definition of 6G.

Xu Zhijun believes that if 6G application scenarios cannot be found, then 6G may not be needed. If 5G or 5.5G can help realize the scenarios and applications that can be imagined, then 6G is not needed.

Generally speaking, Xu Zhijun believes, “We are looking forward to 6G, but we don’t necessarily have 6G. But we still have to prepare, do research, and invest in the possible arrival of 6G.”

The above comments of Mr. Konstantin Roginsky, deputy director of the Institute of Oceanography of the Russian Academy of Sciences shared with the media on April 13.

“The amount of wastewater announced by the Japanese side is a small amount. This is a drop of water in the ocean. Even in the worst case, if the wastewater is poorly treated, this heavy water will sink to the bottom and lie at a depth of 5-6-8 km, ”said Mr. Roginsky.

The waste water is planned to be discharged into the ocean, not posing a threat to the ecosystem of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, because the currents in that area go from north to south in the direction of the Russian scientist. Japan”.

The wastewater discharge will begin in about two years and the entire process is expected to take decades. (Image: Reuters)

According to Roginsky, the discharge of wastewater from the Fukushima nuclear power plant does not pose a threat to the Sea of ​​Japan, which is separated from the Pacific by islands of Japan. “US naval bases are much more harmful to Japan’s coastal fisheries,” added Roginsky.

“About 1.5 million tons of wastewater will be dumped into the ocean. Accordingly, the water is diluted, losing its natural salinity. This can be more harmful to marine organisms than it is with poor radiation release. They are used to living at a certain salinity, at a certain depth, in a certain chemical composition of water, ”explained the Russian expert.

Also commenting on the contemporary Japanese announcement of the discharge of wastewater from the Fukushima nuclear power plant, the expert of the Federal Council on Agricultural Policy – Food and Environmental Management, Ms. Natalia Sokolova undertook that if the wastewater is properly purified, there will be no radioactive threat to Russia.

“Right now, the amount of liquid accumulated is very large. Most of it is regular water. If purified from all harmful impurities, including tritium, the wastewater can be safely discharged into the oceans, as well as the coastal waters of other countries will not be affected. “, Ms. Sokolova shared with Sputnik.

According to the ecologist, discharging water from nuclear power plants is a common process for operating plants. But Fukushima is an emergency, so it is not known whether or not an operation will be able to proceed. It will become clear by 2023 whether wastewater can be filtered to the required parameters.

“Rigorous laboratory analyzes should be performed during the entire wastewater purification process. Two years prior to discharge is called approximate figure. I am sure that the Japanese government will make a decision on the outcome of the wastewater purification process. So far, these are just plans and the reality is that not all wastewater can be 100% purified ”, believes Ms. Sokolova.

Japan insists it is safe to discharge water from the plant as it has been treated to remove most of the radioactive elements and will be diluted. (Image: Reuters)

Meanwhile, Dmitry Lisitsyn, President of the Far East (Russia) environmental protection organization, said that the discharge of wastewater from the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan would lead to radioactive pollution. was brought to the heart of the North Pacific, where Pacific salmon are inhabited.

“The Fukushima nuclear power plant is located on the Pacific coast of Honshu Island. When radioactive pollution enters the Pacific off the coast of Honshu, they are quickly transported to the northeast by the Kuroshio currents, then into the North Pacific stream. All polluted wastewater is sent directly to the North Pacific. How does this threaten Russia? The fish forage in the North Pacific, then infiltrate the Russian table and there will be more before the polluted wastewater completely disappears, “RIA quoted Mr. Lisitsyn.

Lisitsyn noted six Pacific salmon species live in the Far East. They spawn in rivers, feed and grow in the ocean. Specifically in the central region of the North Pacific. This is exactly the site where this pollution was done.

What does the IAEA say?

Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Rafael Mariano Grossi, welcomed the decision of the Japanese Government to discharge wastewater from the damaged Fukushima nuclear power plant into the sea and promised that the organization would assistance to avoid negative consequences.

“I welcome Japan’s announcement of how they will treat wastewater stored at the Fukushima nuclear power plant. The IAEA will work with Japan before, during and after discharge to help ensure this is done without negatively affecting health and the environment, ”wrote Grossi on Twitter.

According to Mr. Grossi, the controlled discharge of water into the sea is regularly used by nuclear power plants operating in the world and in the region, they comply with strict environmental safety standards and regulations. .

The start of wastewater discharge is expected to be around 2023. At the current rate of storage in reservoirs, all available reservoirs will be filled by the end of 2022.

Earlier, speaking at a press conference on April 13, Japanese Prime Minister Suga Yoshihide announced that it would discharge more than 1 million tons of wastewater from the Fukushima nuclear power plant into the sea, saying that the discharge of water into Thai waters Binh Duong was the “most realistic” and “inevitable” option to achieve the recovery of Fukushima.
