Draft budget of the federal government Cabinet approves of high New debt

Status: 23.06.2021 12:18 p.m.

The federal government will also take on massive debts in the coming year. The cabinet approved the draft budget, which provides for new borrowing of almost 100 billion euros for 2022. The debt brake will be suspended again for this. The federal cabinet has approved the government draft for the federal budget for 2022. Once again, the approved budget is shaped by the consequences of the Corona crisis. According to the draft, the federal government wants to incur more new debts in the coming year than previously planned. A net borrowing of 99.7 billion euros is planned, as can be seen from a cabinet proposal. The high level of new borrowing is justified with additional spending as a result of the corona pandemic, for example for corporate aid and to stabilize social contributions.

Debts grow to 470 billion euros

In the benchmarks presented in March, the Ministry of Finance had expected a net borrowing of 81.5 billion euros for 2022. Tax revenues remain below pre-crisis levels. This would mean that the mountain of debt accumulated by the corona pandemic between 2020 and 2022 would grow to around 470 billion euros. However, there are now plans to increase spending on climate protection and health, for example. The federal government had already taken on billions in new debts in 2020 and 2021. The budget plans are, so to speak, subject to change, because the new Bundestag elected in autumn has to pass the budget. There could therefore still be significant changes.

Debt brake suspended again

According to the draft, the debt brake anchored in the Basic Law will also be suspended in the coming year against the background of the Corona crisis. It stipulates that the federal government may only take out new loans to a very small extent – a maximum of 0.35 percent of economic output. According to the draft, the federal government no longer wants to make use of the exemption from 2023. In the afternoon, Federal Finance Minister Olaf Scholz wants to present his budget plan

Ctrip released the “Red Tourism Big Data Report for the First Half of 2021”.Photo courtesy of the interviewee

Ticket bookings for the Red Scenic Area have soared

This year, the red tourism continues to heat up. The Ctrip report shows that in the first half of the year, the number of people booking red scenic spots through Ctrip increased by 208% year-on-year; compared with the first half of 2019, it also achieved a positive growth of 35%.

Fang Zeqian, an industry analyst at Ctrip Tourism Research Institute, said that with the popularization and normalization of patriotic education, red tourism has gradually entered the public eye. Especially the contemporary young groups, the proportion of participating in red tourism is gradually increasing. Narrowing the distance between red tourism and young people is one of the issues of today’s tourism companies. In the first half of the year, Ctrip led tens of millions of people to participate in red tourism through the “Travel in China Red” series of projects. Through the “Red Travel Channel”, “Traveling China Red Album”, and the output of red tourism content, the red tourism coverage has reached more than 200 million people.

Rejuvenation of the red tourism market:

The post-80s and post-90s account for 70%, and the post-00s increase by 2.5 times

The epidemic has changed people’s travel methods and habits, and red tourism has gradually become peripheral. The report shows that nearly 40% of tourists book the surrounding red tourist attractions on Ctrip. In the first half of this year, orders for surrounding red scenic spots increased by 25% over the same period in 2019.

From the perspective of the red tourism customer group, women prefer red tourism, accounting for 52%, which is 4 percentage points higher than that of men. From the perspective of the age of tourists in the red scenic area, the age of red tourism users is mainly born in the 80s and 90s, accounting for 38% and 31% respectively. Compared with the first half of 2019, the number of post-90s has increased by nearly 40%. As the patriotic enthusiasm of young people continues to rise, the number of people participating in red tourism after 00 has also increased significantly. The report shows that in the first half of the year, Ctrip placed orders for red tourist attractions after 00, an increase of about 2.5 times over the same period in 2019. In addition, the report shows that the most popular red tourist attractions for post-90s and post-00s are: Yuelu Mountain, Langya Mountain, Jinggang Mountain, Baiyangdian Lake, and Olympic Park.

At the same time, red tourism with the theme of parent-child patriotic education is becoming more and more popular. The report shows that in the first half of the first half of the red tourist attraction ticket booking group, parent-child families accounted for more than 30%, especially after 1980s with children. Data shows that in the first half of the first half of the year, the number of people born in the 1980s who took their babies to participate in red tourism was more than 4 times that of those born in the 1990s and 1.7 times more than those born in the 70s. South Lake Scenic Area, National Museum of China, Tiananmen Square, Xichang Satellite Launch Center, and Chinese People’s Revolution Military Museum are the five most popular red tourist attractions for families in the first half of the year. Among them, the Xichang Satellite Launch Center is the first batch of “red education bases” in my country, and it is also a good place for summer research and satellite launches

China News Service, Chongqing, June 21 (Reporter He Penglei) On the 21st, the Chongqing Higher People’s Court held a press conference stating that since 2021, Chongqing courts have concluded 203 cases of telecommunications and network fraud and related cases, 900 of which have been concluded. 790 people were involved in 166 crimes, and the amount of fraud involved reached 1.84 billion yuan (the same below).

According to Zhang Bo, President of the Second Criminal Tribunal of the Chongqing Higher People’s Court, while punishing telecommunications and network fraud crimes in accordance with the law, the Chongqing court also paid attention to source governance and end-of-line attacks, and carried out a full-scale attack on upstream and downstream related crimes, and resolutely cut them off. And destroy the industrial chain of illegal and criminal activities in the telecommunication network Since the beginning of this year, Chongqing courts have accepted 390 cases of telecommunications network fraud and related criminal cases with 1,704 people, and concluded 203 cases with 900 people.

“The city’s courts adhere to the criminal trial policy and philosophy of’emphasize the more important, despise the lesser’, and adhere to the main theme of strict law and strictness in criminal cases of telecommunications network fraud.” Zhang Bo said that for organizing and leading telecommunications network fraud criminal groups Principals, organizers and leaders of telecommunications network fraud criminal groups, and active participants who play a major role in joint crimes shall be severely sentenced in accordance with the law, and severe punishments shall be resolutely sentenced in accordance with the law if the crime is serious. Since the beginning of this year, the city’s courts have sentenced 80 telecommunications network fraud criminals to more than five years but less than 10 years in prison, and 89 telecommunications network fraud criminals have been sentenced to more than 10 years in prison. The severe sentence rate is 9.89%, which is higher than the overall level of criminal cases. About 2.3 percentage points higher.

At the same time, the Chongqing court has also increased its efforts to recover stolen goods from criminals swindling telecommunications networks. We shall resolutely pursue all the property obtained by criminals illegally without setting a time limit, and resolutely prevent criminals from obtaining illegal benefits through telecommunications network fraud.

There is no exemption from criminal punishment, and the application rate of probation is 24 percentage points lower than the overall level of criminal cases.

It is worth mentioning that while Chongqing courts severely punish telecommunications network fraud crimes in accordance with the law, they also deal with minor crimes, coercion, tricks to participate in telecommunications network fraud criminal activities, and secondary criminals, threatened accomplices, and have Criminals who surrendered, made meritorious services and other statutory leniency punishments, pleaded guilty and punished after returning to the case and actively returned the stolen goods are treated differently and punished with leniency, which fully reflects the appeal of criminal policies.

Zhang Bo said that Chongqing will carry out a three-year national anti-fraud campaign from 2021 to 2023. The Chongqing court will continue to severely punish telecommunication network fraud crimes in accordance with the law, with “strikes” to promote “prevention”, “strikes” to promote “management”, and “strikes” to promote “control”, forming a powerful deterrent to telecom network fraud criminals; Implement the policy of both leniency and strictness, and encourage criminals in telecommunications network fraud to surrender and reform. The Chongqing court will also analyze and study the law and characteristics of telecommunications network fraud crimes in conjunction with trial practice, and promote the strengthening of telecommunication network fraud crimes from the source.

Balance of the Wirecard U Committee Is Scholz complicit?

Status: 06/22/2021 5:00 p.m.

The Wirecard committee of inquiry presented its report one year after the accounting scandal became known. But who is politically responsible remains open. The opposition and the Union accuse Finance Minister Scholz. For years the Wirecard Group has been highly praised – an innovative business model, a fantastic sales development, the hope in the Dax. And then almost two billion euros disappeared from the balance sheet practically overnight. “It is a criminal case,” says Matthias Hauer, chairman of the Union in the committee of inquiry. And after seven months of studying the files and questioning witnesses, it is clear that the Union is primarily responsible for the bankruptcy of billions: “Federal Finance Minister Olaf Scholz and the management of the Federal Ministry of Finance bear political responsibility for the Wirecard scandal,” said Hauer. They knowingly looked the other way when the rumors about irregularities in the Wirecard management made the rounds. Fabio de Masi from the Left puts it even more drastically: “This billions of dollars lie, this Wirecard illusion factory was only conceivable because they organized a political network to hide the fact that there wasn’t much substance under the covers. “ De Masi recalled the countless investors who would have lost a total of more than 20 billion euros in share assets due to the Wirecard bankruptcy.

Opposition demands political consequences

Florian Toncar from the FDP also thinks that someone from politics should have apologized to the injured party: “I think it is a major annoyance for many citizens that in the end there is no one in such scandals who will also stand up admits his own mistakes. ”

But back to Olaf Scholz. As a witness in the committee of inquiry, he had considerable gaps in memory, complained the spokesman for the Union and opposition parties. Lisa Paus from the Greens thinks that Olaf Scholz did not exactly recommend himself as a candidate for Chancellor: “I think that especially in these times Germany needs a leader who can also admit mistakes. And I think that is something that Olaf Scholz is not given. ” Kay Gottschalk from the AfD was the chairman of the committee of inquiry – Union and the other opposition factions attested to having carried out the office professionally and with colleagues. In the matter he also misses political consequences at a higher level. “A minister would have resigned 20 years ago. And that is a cultural change that we are experiencing here in Germany that I do not like,” said Gottschalk.

SPD defends Scholz

And the SPD? It takes its candidate for chancellor out of the political line of fire. The allegations against Scholz are just election campaign noise, says finance politician Cansel Kiziltepe: “Olaf Scholz bears no political responsibility for the Wirecard scandal. And the allegations that have been made have not been confirmed.”

On Friday there is still a Bundestag debate on the political assessment of the scandal – then the public prosecutor has the floor. She is investigating the former management of Wirecard for, among other things, embezzlement, falsification of accounts and fraud committed by gang. It is not yet possible to foresee when there will be criminal proceedings

Wirecard scandal What’s left of the U committee

As of: 06/22/2021 9:16 a.m.

A year ago, the financial services provider Wirecard went bankrupt. A U-Committee of the Bundestag tried to find out why controllers and supervision failed. The committee has now completed its work.

From Tobias Betz, ARD capital studio

Head of authorities fired, insider trading uncovered: A reform should turn Germany’s financial supervision inside out. The committee of inquiry into the Wirecard scandal has initiated a lot. More than 100 witnesses were questioned and thousands of documents turned over.

Florian Toncar did this for the FDP: The investigative committee had come to a clear conclusion. “We made it very clear that the Wirecard case was not a natural disaster that no one could have foreseen or averted,” he says. There were hints and people who warned early on. The disturbing thing about the Wirecard case is that all of this could have happened with the eyes of sight and under the inspectors’ radar.

BaFin seal of approval?

The central accusation of the opposition: The Federal Financial Services Agency (BaFin) did not investigate early indications of possible irregularities at Wirecard. Instead, according to experts, the authority made fatal misjudgments.

BaFin was convinced that Wirecard was being blackmailed. That is why the authorities imposed a ban on the short sale of Wirecard shares in February 2019. BaFin had never before issued such a speculation ban with a single share. Many market participants understood this signal as a kind of seal of approval: You can trust Wirecard, the company is clean!

Many small investors then got on board. When the rumors that had been circulating for years about inflated balance sheets at Wirecard turned out to be true in June 2020, the share price plummeted. Wirecard was broke. Many small investors lost everything.

The minister and the chancellor had to testify

Since then, the public prosecutor has been investigating, among other things, gang fraud. Former board members were arrested and one of them, Jan Marsalek, is still on the run to this day. Because the control authorities are subordinate to ministries, the opposition’s criticism was directed at the government, says Lisa Paus, who sits on the committee of inquiry for the Greens. “Wirecard was also an auditor scandal. The supervision was under the economics minister Peter Altmaier,” says Paus. Above all, Wirecard is a broad supervisory scandal overall. “The financial supervision was under the SPD finance minister Olaf Scholz.”

Ministers Scholz and Altmaier had to testify in the committee of inquiry. Chancellor Angela Merkel was also questioned for hours. None of them admitted mistakes. On the other hand, the work of the investigative committee certainly increased the pressure on the Federal Finance Minister to completely reform the financial supervisory authority BaFin, which is subordinate to him, including a change at the top of BaFin.

Bankers lost their reputations

Financial expert Fabio De Masi from the Left Party is certain that the results of the committee of inquiry are not only politically interesting: “The auditors’ mistakes will play a role in class actions by small investors,” he says. Never before have so many heads rolled at the head of authorities in such a short time.

Authority managers, bankers, analysts, fund managers and BaFin employees – they lost their jobs, their bonuses, their reputation. These are the first concrete effects of the committee of inquiry into the Wirecard scandal. The witness chair on the investigative committee was therefore soon more feared by some than the dock in a criminal court

China Chengxin International recently released a follow-up rating report on Sichuan Tianfu Bank. The report shows that the bank’s credit rating outlook has been adjusted from stable to negative. This indicates that the credit level of Tianfu Bank may decline in the next 12 to 18 months.

It is understood that this is the first city commercial bank whose rating outlook has been adjusted to negative this year. “The downgrading of the rating may affect the interest rate of the bank’s bond issuance. The lower the rating, the higher the interest rate of the bond issuance, which will increase the cost and difficulty of financing.” A banker commented to an interface news reporter.

Zhou Maohua, an analyst at the Financial Markets Department of Everbright Bank, told Jiemian News that company ratings are one of the important basis for investors to price companies and related assets. There are many factors that trigger downgrades of companies or institutions, such as macroeconomics, policy changes, and emergencies. , The company’s internal management issues, etc., caused changes in the company’s fundamentals, business prospects, and asset quality.

Regarding the reasons for the rating downgrade, China Chengxin International mentioned that Tianfu Bank faces many challenges, including the slowdown in macroeconomic growth and the pressure on bank operations and asset quality caused by changes in the regional credit environment, as well as continuous credit assets and non-standard investment risks. Exposure and profitability have been significantly weakened, deposit stability has become weaker, and liquidity management pressure has increased.

Last year, Tianfu Bank’s revenue and net profit both declined significantly: net operating income was 4.324 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 9.46%; net profit was 846 million yuan, a sharp drop of 42.11% year-on-year.

China Chengxin International also mentioned that the bank’s loan and non-standard investment risks continue to be exposed, and the resolution is increasing, and future credit risk management and control will still face pressure.

As of the end of 2020, the bank has no non-performing balances in non-standard investments, but special mention loans are 6.213 billion yuan, accounting for 23.97%. The financiers are mainly real estate and trading companies in Sichuan and Guizhou. “On the whole, the bank’s securities investment accounts for a relatively large proportion of non-standardized debt investments, and they have already experienced significant impairment. The information transparency of such investments is low, and they face greater pressure to withdraw impairment reserves, and related risks need to be maintained. Pay close attention.” The report mentioned.

As of the end of 2020, the bank’s non-performing loan balance increased by 341 million yuan to 2.612 billion yuan year-on-year, and the non-performing loan ratio increased by 0.02 percentage points from the beginning of the year to 2.00%.

In addition, the rating report also hints at the liquidity pressure of Tianfu Bank. As of the end of 2020, Tianfu Bank’s assets due within one year accounted for 39.58% of total assets, and liabilities due within one year accounted for 60.86% of total liabilities. The maturity gap within 2-7 days at the end of the year was -6.27 billion yuan. Facing greater pressure on liquidity management.

According to the official website of Tianfu Bank, the bank was established in 2001 and successfully introduced German strategic investors in 2005, becoming China’s first secondary city to introduce foreign capital. Its current asset scale is 216.181 billion yuan.

The bank’s equity is relatively dispersed. As of the end of last year, the top five shareholders of the bank’s shareholding ratios were: Sichuan Mingyu Group Co., Ltd. (9.98%), Nanchong Union Industrial Co., Ltd. (9.98%), and Chengdu Yunji Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. Liability company (9.93%), Chengdu Fengzhilin Trading Co., Ltd. (9.89%), Nanchong Jinnan Industrial Co., Ltd. (4.99%)

In recent years, telecommunications network fraud and criminal activities have continued to occur frequently, and the criminal situation has become increasingly serious and complex. Around the telecommunications network fraud crimes, a series of black and gray industrial chains have also emerged, forming a large number of upstream and downstream related crimes. “Under the high pressure of severe crackdowns, a large number of domestic telecommunications network fraud dens have moved overseas, frantically committing frauds to the people in our country. According to statistics, currently more than 60% of overseas telecommunications fraud dens have committed crimes.” Li Ruiyi said. 04 A pocket-sized border fish found 423 million years ago in Chongqing On June 21, Chinese scientists announced that the ancient Silurian fish from the Silurian period 423 million years ago was discovered in Chongqing, and they are called pocket border fish.

Heil is promoting training bonuses There should be no “Corona vintage”

Status: 06/22/2021 05:07

The second year of training since the beginning of the corona pandemic begins in September. The federal government supports training companies with training bonuses, but Labor Minister Heil is still worried about a corona kink on the apprenticeship market. Federal Labor Minister Hubertus Heil sees the German training market facing a critical phase after months of the pandemic. The number of apprenticeships like applicants had already decreased last year, said the minister. Figures from the Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training prove this. The test comes this summer, “Heil told the Funke media group. “We are currently fighting the clock as the training year begins on September 1st.” It is clear: “We are not allowed to allow a Corona class in training.”

6000 euros bonus per apprenticeship position

Many companies were hesitant at the moment because they believed they could not afford apprentices at the moment. Heil called on companies to make greater use of state support offers such as the training bonus. The bonus has been approved for almost 40,000 training positions since last summer.

Heil pointed out that the new protective umbrella for training has been in place since the beginning of June. The premium was also doubled in March. Companies affected by a pandemic that keep their training quota have been receiving EUR 4,000 per apprenticeship position since the beginning of June, and EUR 6,000 for new trainee positions.

According to the Federal Ministry of Labor, the program has a total volume of 410 million euros for the current year. By mid-June, around 88 million euros, almost a fifth, had been paid out

So, have you ever tried to “abolish” time and plan your life as you like? Depart at 3 in the morning to see the sea, have dinner at 12 noon, and have a supper at 3 in the afternoon. Do these events sound incredible? For us, such a thing may be unimaginable, but for the residents of this “sun never setting” island, such a life has become commonplace.

This is Sommaroy Island on the west coast of Norway. It is also the place where time has been “abolished” in the world. Tourists here have taken off their watches to free themselves from the shackles of time. In addition to this special custom, this small island also has many beautiful natural scenery, such as charming and comfortable coasts, gorgeous aurora and so on.

For most of us, we have always followed the life habit of “work at sunrise and rest at sunset”. The traditional time system still plays a very important role in our lives. But for Sommaroy Island, this is not the case. Because this island will usher in 69 days of polar day every year from May 18th to July 26th, summer is very long for this small island, and it also gets the name of “Summer Island” . For the residents of Summer Island, summer time is precious, and they especially enjoy life under the sun. Because in this summer, which lasts for more than two months, the sun will not set, and the sun will brighten the entire island. Even if people come out to build their own lawn at 3 in the morning, it will not look very abrupt. Some friends may wonder how to sleep at night or during the day? In fact, don’t worry, the local windows will be equipped with blackout blinds, and the room will become pitch black when they are put down. What needs to be mentioned is that after the long polar day, the residents on the small island will usher in the polar night for three months from November to January of the following year. The sun will not rise again and the entire island will be It became gloomy. But this did not make the island lose its charm, on the contrary, it attracted more tourists to come here for sightseeing. Because during this period of time, if you are lucky, you may see the aurora from the North Pole, which is gorgeous and fantastic. Due to the special geographical environment and climatic conditions, the permanent population of Xiazhidao is not very large. There are only 350 residents on the island, which is not as large as a community in our country. It can be called a sparsely populated area. Local people mainly rely on tourism and fisheries for their livelihoods. It takes a few days for fishermen to go out to sea to fish. Coupled with the long-lasting extreme daylight phenomenon, the residents’ concept of time is very vague. In 2019, the residents of the island united to propose to the government a proposal to abolish the time system, and finally realized “time freedom.” The original proponent of this idea, Shell Overweeding, gave his own answer: “Our goal is to provide as much flexibility and flexibility as possible.” Residents can do it 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Arrange your time flexibly, whether it’s rest or work. If you want to go fishing early in the morning, do it. No one will persuade you not to stay up late. From the outside to this “timeless” island, you will pass a bridge on the way. Since the island passed the proposal to abolish time, tourists who travel here will take off their watches when they pass the bridge and hang them on the railings of the bridge. There are many different styles of watches tied to the bridge. It becomes a special ceremony, reminding people that after crossing this bridge, they come to the “timeless state” at the end of the world

According to the news, the appearance of the iPhone SE3 is basically the same as that of the previous generation. It continues to use a 4.7-inch LCD screen, with a Touch ID fingerprint recognition home button on the front and a single camera on the back.

The other iPhone SE Plus adopts a larger size, and the appearance has also changed. The front side has removed the bangs and changed to a hole-digging screen. The rear is the same as the iPhone 13 series models, using a large circle camera.

In addition, the model may adopt the design of under-screen fingerprints or side fingerprints to support 5G networks, but the processor may not be the upcoming A15, but the A14 of last year.

Although the various configurations have shrunk a bit, the price is still acceptable. According to the news, the starting price of iPhone SE3 is still 3200. It is expected that these two models will be released in April next year

Burden on world trade Freighters back up off southern China

As of: 21.06.2021 8:59 a.m.

The container ships are stowed in the fourth largest port in the world. The reason is a corona outbreak in Shenzhen-Yantian. The international movement of goods is impaired – possibly until the end of the year.

From Steffen Wurzel, ARD studio Shanghai

The congestion of the container ships off southern China is worse than that Blockade of the Suez Canal in March This is how Vincent Clerc, manager of the Danish shipping company Maersk, summed it up in a conversation with journalists in mid-June. At times, around 130 container ships from all over the world were anchored off the port of Shenzhen-Yantian, as reported by the Bloomberg news agency.

Weeks-long consequences for world trade

The reason for the traffic jam is a new – albeit small – corona outbreak in the southern Chinese part of Guangdong, where Shenzhen is located. Because the local authorities ordered the port of Shenzhen to be partially closed due to the corona, ships could not dock and cast off. Supply chains worldwide are out of step. German companies in the Guangdong region are also reporting that department stores are sometimes overcrowded. In the meantime, the situation in Guangdong has normalized, but weeks will pass before the backlog has completely cleared, estimates Nick Marro, an analyst for world trade at the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) in Hong Kong. The backlog will therefore continue for weeks through the global supply chains.

Traffic jam in the fourth largest port in the world

Shenzhen-Yantian is the fourth largest container port in the world; Last year more than 27 million standard containers (TEU) were handled there. For comparison: In Hamburg there were fewer than nine million containers in 2020, i.e. around a third of them.

The logistics delays are a problem especially for the tech and electronics industry: around 90 percent of all electronics exports from China go through the port of Shenzhen-Yantian. Analyst Nick Marro expects the situation to remain tense, given the global openings after the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Relaxation probably only towards the end of the year

“There is no sign of an end to global consumer demand for goods and products. In many western countries, stocks are usually replenished in the third quarter of the year, which continues to ensure high trading activity,” says Marro. “This suggests that the tensions in global logistics and at the ports will not ease until the fourth quarter of the year.” In China, almost no reports are made of the container ship congestion in front of the port of Shenzhen-Yantian

The states are urging to continue Corona aid for companies until the end of the year – Federal Minister of Economics Altmaier indicated readiness. Support for domestic exporters has already been extended. There are signs of an extension of the corona aid for companies that have been particularly hard hit by the pandemic. The economics ministers of the federal states demanded that the funds previously planned until the end of September be continued until the end of the year. The federal government pays the previous “Bridging Aid III”.

Extension after the summer break if necessary

Federal Minister of Economics Peter Altmaier (CDU) made it clear after a meeting with his country ministerial colleagues that he is not averse to an extension. One will look at the situation and, if necessary, extend the help after the summer break. The corona aid only applies to companies that can demonstrate a sharp drop in sales and can trace them back to the pandemic. As the economy is currently picking up again and more business is being done again, the number of companies eligible to apply is falling.

Altmaier: So far, 105 billion euros have been transferred

So far, a total of 105 billion euros have been transferred to companies as corona aid, said Altmaier. Roughly half of these are loans and half are grants that do not have to be repaid. In addition, there is money from the federal states. According to Altmaier, the state support has paid off: “Together we managed to prevent a loss of substance in the German economy.”

Against the background of the lower number of infections and the lifting of restrictions, Altmaier said the economy was “coming to a new start faster than many feared”. Growth is picking up – this year it will be 3.5 to 4 percent and in 2022 it will be more than 4 percent. The economy will have reached pre-crisis levels by spring 2022 at the latest. “That means, we are hopefully out of the worst,” said the CDU politician. When the bridging aid, which ran until the end of June, was extended by three months as “bridging aid III plus”, he was in any case in favor of continuing it until the end of the year.

Aid to exporters continues

Meanwhile, the corona aid for domestic exporters has already been extended until the end of the year. They were decided in July 2020 and should actually end this month. “Even if the economic situation has improved significantly in the past few months, the corona pandemic continues to pose challenges for the export industry,” the Ministry of Economics justified the decision. “Some companies are only now feeling the stresses with a delay.”

“Security signal” to the economy

North Rhine-Westphalia’s Minister of Economic Affairs, Andreas Pinkwart, spoke out in favor of continuing to support sectors such as the trade fair industry. After all, they would “presumably not yet be able to work in the fourth quarter in the way they normally would at normal times”. In addition, the FDP politician considers the extension of the bridging aid to be a good precaution for possible rising incidences in autumn. Then you would “not have to put on a new program from the hip”, but would have already been prepared. Saarland’s Minister of Economic Affairs, Anke Rehlinger, considers the prospect of the extension of the aid to be “a protective signal” to the economy. “We have to take care of the industries that are still suffering from the pandemic.” She stressed that the time should be used to prepare for all eventualities in autumn and winter. Should one be forced to make restrictions again because of the pandemic, there could be “other, smarter measures” that would take into account aspects such as a high vaccination rate.

Situation in trade fair industry “catastrophic”

The corona pandemic hit large parts of the German economy hard. In the meantime, things are looking a little better again, also because restrictions have been relaxed and restaurants and cafes are open again, for example. However, the situation in some sectors such as the trade fair industry is still very tense.

Jörn Holtmeier, managing director of the trade fair association AUMA, described the situation in his branch as “catastrophic”. The first industry get-togethers would take place again in September, but the number of trade fairs until the end of the year was clear. There have been many rejections. “If a stand builder finally gets another order for his first trade fair in November or December, but then does not receive any more money from the state in October, this can extremely worsen the already tense financial situation of his company.” Then company bankruptcies are possible. It is mainly about stand builders, caterers and private trade fair organizers. Exhibition companies that belong to municipalities and the state are not entitled to federal corona aid.

Around 231,000 employees

Holtmeier is also in favor of extending the aid until the end of the year. This was just a safety net, he said. “Some companies will get orders again beforehand and make sales, they will not have to use the help.”

According to AUMA, Germany’s trade fair industry has around 231,000 employees. This not only includes organizers and stand builders, but also companies with a strong trade fair business – a hotel, for example, which does most of its business with trade fair visitors, is proportionately included in the number of employees. Since March 2020, according to the Ifo Institute, the crisis in the trade fair industry has led to economic damage of an estimated 40 billion euros: Dealers could no longer buy anything at the industry get-togethers, and there were no more visitors who would spend money on restaurant visits, hotel stays or taxi rides

Corona risk when traveling On a vacation flight into the fourth wave?

Status: 06/18/2021 5:16 a.m.

Falling incidences and more and more vaccinated people, many people hope for a carefree vacation – almost without Corona. But does the travel wave threaten a setback for autumn like last year? Four experts offer advice on how to reduce the risk of a fourth wave.

By Stefan Keilmann, tagesschau.de

For weeks the number of new infections in Germany is falling , In addition, the vaccination campaign against Corona is making progress: Every second person in this country has already received the first vaccination . Many people are now all the more hoping for an end to the pandemic and a piece of normality. The tour operators register one Record increase in bookings , In many holiday regions in Germany, it is hardly possible to get hold of a room for the holidays.

But what does this mean for fighting the pandemic? Last summer, the incidences were also low, many people traveled within and outside of Europe – and some brought the virus back with them. According to In the meantime, every second new infection was due to a trip abroad due to a special evaluation by the Robert Koch Institute . But can the experiences from last year be carried over to the summer of this year that easily? After all, many people are protected by vaccinations – but there are significantly more contagious virus mutants such as the Delta variant . Therefore, experts are already warning against that there could be significantly more infections in autumn . How is vacation possible in the second Corona summer – and what has to happen so that there is no fourth wave in autumn? tagesschau.de interviewed scientists from various disciplines.

Ralf Bartenschlager, virologist

To person Prof. Dr. Ralf Bartenschlager is President of the Society for Virology and heads the Department of Molecular Virology at Heidelberg University.

“I think you have to differentiate here whether you are fully immunized – and by that I mean both vaccinations – or whether you have not yet been vaccinated or have only been vaccinated once. With a complete immunization, more vacation is certainly possible than with a missing or partial immunization, even if you can create a certain compensation through testing. Basically, the holiday destination should also be chosen carefully this summer. One should consider the incidence, the vaccination rate and the presence of worrying variants – such as the delta variant – in the destination area. We have to use the summer months to avoid a fourth wave in autumn / winter. The vaccination must be given priority here, and it must be complete. The latest results show that the second vaccination is very important, especially with regard to protection against the SARS-CoV-2 variants. In addition, we must minimize the entry of infections, especially with SARS-CoV-2 variants, as far as possible for those returning from abroad. ”

Kai Nagel, mobility researcher

To person Prof. Dr. Kai Nagel is a physicist and head of the Department of Traffic System Planning and Traffic Telematics at the Technical University of Berlin. With the help of a simulation model – which also uses real cellular data – he is investigating how the coronavirus spreads in schools, at work and when traveling.

“Our simulations show that, due to the rapid progress of vaccination and the summer, we are currently in a situation in which we have a certain amount of leeway for relaxation . the proportion of dangerous mutations is not significantly higher than in Germany. The same principles apply when traveling as here. First: Wherever possible, carry out activities (e.g. visits to restaurants) outside. Second: Wear masks indoors. And third: Avoid contexts with a high density of people. However, our simulations also show that an autumn wave is likely if the vaccination protection decreases due to a mutation. For this reason, tourist trips to regions with dangerous mutations should be avoided at all costs, and if they do take place, be bound to a quarantine (also for vaccinated / convalescent) after return. It cannot be assumed that this will completely prevent the entry of these mutations, but it can at least be slowed down. ”

Gérard Krause, epidemiologist

To person Prof. Dr. Gérard Krause is one of the leading epidemiologists in Germany. Among other things, he heads the Epidemiology Department at the Helmholtz Center for Infection Research in Braunschweig.

“How the epidemiological situation of the pandemic will develop in the second half of the year does not depend solely on how we organize the vacation time. What will also be decisive here will be the extent to which the priority target groups can be fully vaccinated and how well the vaccination against newly emerging variants of the virus and how the autumnal environmental conditions favor the spread of the virus again. Also important is how successfully the public health service will be able to contain local outbreaks that occur. To the extent that social restrictions on mobility and contacts no longer apply, the importance of case-related contact person management increases. To make matters worse, the health authorities may not be able to fall back on extensive staffing as they were recently. Well-focused and optimized processes are required here. ”

Clemens Wendtner, chief physician

To person Prof. Dr. Clemens Wendtner is the head physician for infectious diseases at Munich Clinic Schwabing. At the beginning of the pandemic, Germany’s first corona patients were in his clinic.

“Enjoy with common sense – that should be our motto for the summer. After months of restrictions, the longing for sun and distance is understandably great and the development of incidence allows us more freedom again. That is good and right, as long as we have the security with us Last year the number of cases increased after the holidays, in autumn we mainly looked after returning travelers at our wards. We have to learn from this and, particularly with regard to the mutations, continue to consistently link safety measures with the relaxation. And: We have to keep our vision through the sun’s rays, constantly advance the vaccinations in the summer, keep the vaccination speed high. The higher the vaccination protection in autumn, the flatter a possible fourth wave. Then we have a good chance that the months of restrictions will finally be a thing of the past. ” The Corona variants and their names The World Health Organization (WHO) is now using neutral names for the variants of the coronavirus. They are no longer to be named after the countries in which they were first discovered. With this, the WHO wants to prevent discrimination and stigmatization.
alpha The name of the variant that first appeared in Great Britain is B.1.1.7.
beta is the name for the variant B.1.351 discovered in South Africa.
gamma stands for variant P.1, which has been proven in Brazil.
delta refers to variant B.1.617.2, which was initially found in India.

Less CO2 through power plants EUEmissions trading paying off

Status: 06/17/2021 3:36 p.m.

The European emissions trading system had an impact last year. According to figures from the Federal Environment Agency, CO2 emissions in Germany’s power plants have fallen sharply. It looks different with industry.

From Martin Polansky, ARD capital studio

The German power plants emitted 15 percent less CO2 last year than in 2019. Coal power plants in particular were shut down. The energy sector and industry in this country have reduced their CO2 emissions by 33 percent since 2013. This is shown by current figures presented by the Federal Environment Agency (UBA).

According to the head of the German Emissions Trading Authority at UBA, Jürgen Landgrebe, European emissions trading has proven its worth. “The greenhouse gas emissions of the plants in Germany have fallen significantly.” Since 2018, the EU has decided to significantly strengthen its ambitions in European emissions trading. “And as a result, the markets reacted immediately,” said Landgrebe.

Significant price increases since 2018

Emissions trading is seen as a market-based instrument to reduce CO2 emissions. The system has existed since 2005. It ensures that around 1,800 power plants and industrial companies in Germany require emission certificates in order to be allowed to emit CO2.

The certificates are traded. The number of these decreases annually, which means that their price increases gradually. As a result, CO2 emissions are also becoming more and more expensive. While the certificate price was quite low for a long time, it has increased significantly since 2018 – to more than 50 euros per ton of CO2.

Gas-fired power plants and renewable energy systems have benefited from this, said the head of the emissions trading office. Last year, more than 45 percent of the gross electricity consumption in Germany was covered by renewable energies. “The aim is for us to price fossil fuels heavily so that renewable energies also become competitive more quickly,” said Landgrebe.

Weak effects in industry

Many market observers assume that emissions trading could lead to the shutdown of coal-fired power plants in this country much earlier than 2038. This end date was agreed a good two years ago in the so-called coal compromise between industry, environmental associations and trade unions. The federal government had largely adopted the compromise in the coal exit law. In industry, however, the effect of emissions trading has so far been less pronounced. Emissions have only fallen by around eight percent since 2013 – also due to the corona pandemic. In many cases there is a lack of marketable alternatives, for example for chemical plants or the steel industry. The latter is to switch from coke to hydrogen in the long term.

Help for retrofitting

The head of the German Emissions Trading Authority advocated increasing the pressure on industry. Fewer CO2 certificates should soon be issued. In addition, public aid is available for retrofitting. Landgrebe referred to the European innovation fund, which will provide approximately 20 billion euros for corresponding investments.

“The national decarbonisation fund is also providing around two billion euros to strongly promote such technologies and bring them to market readiness,” said Landgrebe.

Special taxes on industrial imports?

The steel industry and other sectors fear that European companies could suffer competitive disadvantages if the pressure to switch becomes too strong. The argument goes that climate protection does not benefit from steel coming more from India or China in the future.

In the European Union there are therefore considerations to impose special taxes on industrial imports from regions of the world with low climate standards in order to protect domestic industry. The EU Commission wants to present plans in July on how emissions trading can be used even more. On the one hand, consideration is being given to lowering the CO2 cap more quickly in order to meet the more ambitious European climate targets. On the other hand, certificate trading could be expanded to the areas of transport and buildings.

Surcharge at the gas station

In Germany, there has been a national CO2 pricing for fuel, heating oil and natural gas since the beginning of the year. However, this system is currently not based on a fixed CO2 cap, which is gradually being lowered, but on a price surcharge, for example at the petrol station – in the hope that people will use less fuel.

Similar to the issue of phasing out coal, European emissions trading could in the long run make the special national regulations superfluous in this country – if it proves to be the more efficient and market-compliant system for reducing CO2 emissions

Balance for 2020 Decline among Germans Arms exports

Status: 16.06.2021 2 p.m.

The federal government approved fewer exports of German armaments last year than in the previous year. For controversial exports to Egypt, however, millions again flowed. German companies that sell armaments abroad need a permit. These are summarized in the annual arms export report, which was the subject of the Federal Cabinet meeting today. Accordingly, significantly less armaments were sold abroad in the corona crisis year 2020 than in the previous year. 2019 was still a record year for the German arms industry: the German government had approved exports of weapons, submarines and tanks worth around eight billion euros. In comparison, the total was significantly lower last year at around 5.8 billion. Of course, the sum also fluctuates because in some years major projects are approved, in others not. Around half of the arms exports approved last year are intended for EU or NATO countries, or for countries that are on an equal footing with them, such as Japan, Switzerland or Australia.

Sale to Egypt under fire

More than half of the export licenses went to so-called third countries. Armaments from Germany should actually only go to these states in exceptional cases. Expressed as a sum, the export of goods worth almost three billion euros to such third countries was approved in the past. These include in particular Egypt, which ordered submarines and patrol ships from German shipyards worth around 764 million euros – according to the report by the Federal Ministry of Economics, the highest approved value among exports to third countries last year. Exports to Egypt are criticized by the churches, among others, because of allegations of human rights violations.

In some war and crisis regions no weapons are delivered, for example Ukraine. The federal government recently had the advance of the Greens leader Robert Habeck refused for the delivery of defensive weapons. Arms control does not distinguish between offensive and defensive weapons.

Decline in exports, growth in imports

According to the Swedish peace research institute SIPRI, Germany is one of the five largest arms exporters in the world. While the sale of German armaments abroad declined in the past year, the Federal Republic increased the import of military equipment by more than five percent in 2020 . Last year, according to SIPRI, Germany invested around 44 billion euros in armaments, making it seventh worldwide. With information from Hans-Joachim Vieweger, ARD capital studio

Super-fast cellular network Europe is lagging behind in terms of 5G expansion

Status: 16.06.2021 11:11 a.m.

The expansion of the new generation of mobile communications is progressing. Half a billion people worldwide could use 5G this year. According to a study, there are mainly networks in Asia and North America ahead. In the race to expand the fifth generation of mobile communications (5G), Western Europe is in danger of being overtaken by North America, Northeast Asia and the Gulf States on the Arabian Peninsula. That is the result of a study by the Swedish network equipment manufacturer Ericsson. According to this, nine percent of all mobile phone contracts in Northeast Asia (including China and South Korea) had already been converted to 5G by the end of 2020. In Western Europe this value was only one percent. Globally, it is expected that 580 million people will already be using 5G networks by the end of 2021. Because of the corona pandemic, some frequency auctions in Europe have been postponed, Ericsson said in his “Mobility Report”. This has a short-term impact on the provision and coverage of 5G in the region.

06/08/2021

Early expansion in the Gulf States

Nevertheless, 4G technology will also be pushed back in Western Europe in the coming years, in favor of 5G. While 4G (LTE) is currently the dominant access technology and accounts for 78 percent of all contracts, Ericsson is forecasting a decline to 27 percent by the end of 2026. The 5G penetration will then reach around 69 percent. Older standards such as UMTS (3G) disappear almost completely . This would mean that 5G penetration in Western Europe would be lower than in North America, where it is forecast that by 2026 almost 84 percent of all mobile phone contracts could be based on the 5G standard. A share of 73 percent is expected in the Gulf States. In 2019, these countries were among the first in the world to introduce commercial 5G services. In Northeast Asia, on the other hand, only two thirds (65 percent) of all mobile phone contracts are expected to switch to 5G by 2026. In absolute numbers, Asia is forecast to have the largest number of 5G contracts (1.4 billion). The study expects 340 million 5G contracts for North America. In other regions of the world, including India and Latin America, current 4G technology will remain dominant in 2026. Overall, Ericsson expects the number of 5G cellular connections to grow to 3.5 billion by 2026 – almost 500 million of them in Europe.

More wireless landline connections

5G technology is carried by smartphones, which already make up the majority of mobile data traffic. According to Ericsson, a good half – 53 percent – of mobile data traffic should run over 5G networks by 2026. The Swedish network equipment supplier also predicts that the number of wireless fixed network connections (FWA) will reach almost 180 million by the end of 2026. Up to this point in time, mobile communications will account for around 20 percent of global mobile network data traffic for your own four walls. The wireless fixed network connections via 4G or 5G compete with classic broadband connections such as DSL, cable internet or fiber optic connections. They are especially cheaper to provide on the “last mile” because you do not have to lay cables from the distribution box into the apartments or offices.

After staying in the house for more than a year, Guangzhou local original Lego designer Li Shiyilang launched a new work, “I am a Chinese”, a Chinese-style work based on the Beijing Palace Museum. This 4mx2.4m work took a year and used 700,000 Lego pixel particles. Standing in front of this work, the audience seems to overlook the entire Forbidden City.

Li Shiyilang, whose real name is Li Zhining, claims to be a folk Lego designer without official certification, but since 2017, he has launched a large-scale MOC every year (My Own Creation, which means that he does not design new works according to the drawings of the official Lego set) , London’s Palace of Westminster, Saint Seiya’s Golden Zodiac, and then to super large Lego pixel paintings.

Li Shiyilang’s works are all built with ordinary Lego pieces, and the difficulty is evident.Photo by Nandu reporter Zhang Chi

During the epidemic last year, Li Shiyilang’s work almost stagnated, but new ideas were also emerging at this time: Lego has not tried Chinese style works for so many years, and he hopes to create one with the Lego bricks he is good at. Works reflecting Chinese power and Chinese wisdom. Last year was the 600th anniversary of the completion of the Forbidden City. Li Shilang, who had never been to Beijing, decided to use the Forbidden City as a prototype.

Compared with many Lego gods at home and abroad, Li Shiyilang is a very traditional craftsman. He has never used computer design, let alone modeling. “I created my creation by searching the pictures on the Internet and incorporating my understanding of Chinese style architecture.” Shichi Lang said, only drawing the simplest design drawings on white paper, indicating the location of each building. “Then follow the feeling, modify it again, and the finished product will come out.” Li Shiyilang said with a smile, this “specialty” also restricted him from participating in limited-time competitions, “because when I feel nervous, my brain becomes blank. ”

The initial construction was carried out on a 38cmx38cm building block base plate. Each building is based on Li Shishilang comparing the data map, using his many years of experience to select parts and strive to restore the body. “Because the studio is not big, so I can only do it part by part. And with the experience of previous exhibitions, I will first consider transportation when making it.” Li Shiyilang finally spent 60 plates to create.

Details such as the imperial garden, city wall, moat, four city gates and turrets are all presented in the work.Photo by Nandu reporter Zhang Chi

The special feature of this work is that Li Shiyilang used the Lego ratio to play the concept. From the Meridian Gate, it was built according to the 1:1 ratio of Lego figures. After that, the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the Hall of Zhonghe, and the Hall of Baohe were gradually developed. Miniature, large, medium and small ratios overlap each other. “Because of the limitations of the site and design, only in this way can architectural elements such as the four gates, the three halls, the rear three palaces, the imperial garden and the Ci Ning Garden be presented.” Different proportions can be coordinated in the overall effect, Li Shiyi Lang believes that this is the highlight of this work.

Li Shichilang, who doesn’t like to use special parts for creation, chose ordinary Lego parts for his work this time. “All the parts are available in stock in the warehouse.” He has collected more than 11 tons of Lego for more than 14 years. Lego parts. “The difficulty of production is to find what you want in the 11-ton parts, and the second is to build it separately. The accuracy of some connections needs to be re-adjusted.”

It took a year. After the work was completed, he borrowed a friend’s storefront and merged the 60 floor plates of the completed construction to present the most complete work. “Unfortunately, we haven’t found a suitable exhibition hall for sustainable display.”

Speaking of this new work, Li Shiyilang is proud of him. He said: “It is not a foreigner who can play Lego. In China, in Panyu, Guangzhou, there is a person who can create such a work.”

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.

On the evening of June 14th, Juran Zhijia (SZ:000785) issued multiple announcements in a row, disclosing various contents such as “Adjustment of Beijing Juran Zhijia Home Furnishing Chain Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Home Chain”) related performance commitments.

Jiaranzhijia said that in view of the comprehensive impact of various factors such as the sudden outbreak of the new crown epidemic in early 2020, the listed company plans to adjust the performance commitments of the home chain after consultation with the performance pledger.

In the original performance promise, the net profit attributable to the owners of the parent company after deducting non-recurring gains and losses (hereinafter referred to as “net profit deducted from the parent company”) realized by the household chain in 2020 should not be less than about 2.42 billion yuan; and financial data Shows that this indicator for the household chain in 2020 is about 1.297 billion yuan, which is 1.118 billion yuan less than the original performance commitment, and the performance completion rate is 53.59%.

The announcement shows that after this adjustment, the household chain will no longer assume the performance indicator of deducting non-parent net profits in 2020; the original performance commitment will be postponed to the next fiscal year, that is, 2021; in addition, other performance compensation The method and calculation formula, the implementation of profit compensation and other original terms are not adjusted.

Jia Ranzhi was established in 1999. In December 2019, it backdoor Wuhan China Merchants reorganization and listing and landed on the A-share capital market. At that time, Jia Ranzhi signed a performance betting agreement with Wuhan Zhongshang, the holder of Shell Resources.

In 2019, the first annual report after listing, home furnishing chain achieved 2.117 billion yuan of net profit deducted from the parent company, fulfilling the first performance period commitment; but in the first year after backdoor, the home furnishing chain performance was unqualified for gambling.

In the first quarter of this year after the epidemic, the business of Jia Ranzhi ushered in a rebound. According to the plan of Jiaranzhijia, in 2021, it will have breakthroughs in the development of six self-service modes, and the establishment of its first overseas store outside the country.

Home furnishing chain deducts only 1.297 billion yuan in net profit from non-returned parent in 2020, “unqualified”

The result of “the first year of backdoor performance is not qualified for gambling” has been reflected in the 2020 annual performance forecast announcement. At that time, Jiaranzhijia had announced that in 2020, the non-net profit will be reduced by up to 30% to only 1.45 billion yuan; and that “preliminary estimates that the home chain will not be able to complete the 2020 annual performance forecast”.

Judging from the statement of the announcement, the new crown epidemic is the main factor that has caused such a predicament for home furnishing chains. Jiaranzhijia stated that “the household chain’s operating income was directly reduced by 2.161 billion yuan due to the impact of the epidemic, and the net profit attributable to the parent company will be reduced by 1.277 billion yuan after deducting non-recurring gains and losses in 2020.”

Among them, home furnishing chains reduced rents, property fees, market management fees, and advertising and promotion fees for a total of 1.569 billion yuan (72.6%); during the epidemic period, the leased area was reduced, and the rent was also reduced by 259 million yuan; Signing of franchise stores has been significantly reduced compared with the same period and plan, and the loss of household chain stores is 152 million yuan.

However, due to multiple factors such as preferential policies and property owners’ rent reductions, the household chain will save 443 million yuan in operating costs in 2020.

The home furnishing business is mainly engaged in home furnishing products retail, home improvement services, home store business, decoration business and other pan-furniture businesses. In December 2019, after nearly a year, the home actually backdoored Wuhan Zhongshang to land in the A-share market (issued by Wuhan Zhongshang) The shares purchased 100% of the home furnishing chain) and became another home furnishing store giant that has landed on the A-share market after Macalline (SH: 601828).

At that time, from the book assets alone, the transaction consideration of 35.65 billion yuan between the two parties was not cheap; compared with the net asset value of 11.199 billion yuan involved in the transaction, the premium rate was 218.54%.

As a result, this also left the sword of Damocles hanging over the head of the unexpected house-the gambling agreement. At that time, the two parties made performance commitments for the home furnishing chain: from 2019 to 2021, the home furnishing chain will achieve a net profit of no less than 2.06 billion yuan, 2.42 billion yuan and 2.72 billion yuan, respectively.

The agreement signed by the two parties also clarified that “if a force majeure event occurs that causes part of the original profit forecast compensation agreement to be unfulfilled or delayed, neither party is required to bear any liability for breach of contract due to the unfulfilled part or delayed performance caused by the force majeure event.” .

The first annual report after listing is the first performance commitment period. The net profit of household chain deductions from non-parents is approximately 2.117 billion yuan, far exceeding the commitment target of 2.06 billion yuan, and the performance completion rate is 102.76%.

In the first year after the backdoor, that is, the second performance commitment period, the final result showed that the net profit attributable to the owners of the parent company in the consolidated statement of the household chain was 1.368 billion yuan; the actual profit is the net profit after the deduction of the non-parent company after the consolidated statement. 1.297 billion yuan; and 2.42 billion yuan of performance commitments, there is still a gap of 1.118 billion yuan.

Photo source: “Special Verification Opinions of CITIC Securities Co., Ltd. on the Realization of the 2020 Performance Commitments and Performance Commitment Adjustments of Beijing Juranzhijia Home Chain Co., Ltd

In view of this, Zhiranzhijia said that it intends to adjust the performance commitments: After the adjustment, the net profit of the home chain in 2019, 2021 and 2022 will not be less than 2.06 billion yuan, 2.42 billion yuan and 2.72 billion yuan, respectively. ; In addition, the original performance does not make adjustments to other major terms in the gambling agreement.

In other words, after this adjustment, the 2020 performance commitment of the home furnishing chain will be postponed to the next fiscal year, 2021.

According to the announcement, the new crown epidemic is an unforeseen and insurmountable force majeure event that was unpredictable and insurmountable when the original performance betting agreement was signed, and it is directly related to the failure of the household chain to achieve the 2020 performance promise, so this adjustment plan is reasonable.

“This adjustment plan is conducive to further urging home furnishing chains and companies to increase the speed of performance recovery, increase the rate of performance improvement, and essentially improve the quality of listed companies, which is conducive to the long-term interests of all shareholders, especially small and medium shareholders.” Jiaran said.

This year’s GMV may exceed 100 billion yuan, and plans to open no less than 70 new stores

Billion yuan, 2.305 billion yuan, 2.587 billion yuan, 5.1 times in three years, accounting for more than 51%.

In May 2020, Ranzhijia, which was listed on the backdoor for only half a year, launched a fixed increase, issuing stocks to no more than 35 specific investors, raising funds no more than 3.595 billion yuan for store renovation and upgrading, and smart retail construction of Zhongshang Supermarket And replenish working capital and other matters.

In December of the same year, the unexpected home announced that it had completed a fixed increase of 3.5 billion, and companies such as Xiaomi, Ali, and Centennial Life Insurance appeared in the list of subscription targets, which brought a great “blood-tonifying” effect to the unexpected home affected by the epidemic.

Among them, Xiaomi Technology (Wuhan) Co., Ltd., furniture listed company Gujia Home Furnishing (SH: 603816), and Centennial Life Insurance each subscribed for 14.1643 million shares, each with a shareholding ratio of 0.22%; Alibaba (Chengdu) Software Technology Co., Ltd. subscribed 28,329,600 shares, with a shareholding ratio of 0.43%.

Compared with the same period in 2019, the growth rates have also reached 61% and 43% respectively.

In this regard, Jiaranzhijia said that during the reporting period, the investment rate of the company’s direct-operated stores has overcome the impact of the epidemic and returned to a high level, and the expansion of franchise stores has also resumed rapid growth.

It also predicts that the company’s GMV is expected to exceed 100 billion yuan in 201, and it plans to open no less than 70 new stores throughout the year.

For Jia Ranzhi, 2021 is the second fiscal year after listing, and it is also a crucial year for its digital strategy. In December last year, Jia Ranzhi held a new retail achievement and digital strategy press conference, and for the first time disclosed in detail the new strategy of “building a home improvement and home furnishing industry service platform in the digital age”.

Wang Linpeng, chairman and chief executive officer of Juran Home, said that Juran Home is no longer a traditional home furnishing store, a traditional home retail enterprise, and a real estate-style property service provider. It must become an enterprise with long-term value.

At that time, Ranzhijia launched six self-operated IPs, covering design, decoration, auxiliary materials, logistics and distribution, smart home and after-home services, covering all the upstream and downstream tracks of home improvement and home furnishing, including lying flat designer home, digitalization Six platforms including smart home improvement service platform.

According to the plan of Juranzhijia, these six IPs have the profitability to run wildly along their respective tracks; they can also be interconnected and empowered with each other. It is estimated that “every track can contribute more than 10 billion in revenue within 5 years after it runs through.”

In terms of the main business, Jia Ranzhi predicts that in the next 5 years (2025), offline stores will strive to exceed 1,000, with GMV exceeding 150 billion yuan; within 10 years (2030), offline stores will strive to exceed 1,500, GMV More than 300 billion yuan.

However, the performance of the house in the stock market is not optimistic. On June 11, the stock price of Jiaranzhijia hit 6.31 yuan, the lowest since December 28, 2018; it closed at 6.73 yuan, down 0.16%.

On June 15th, the first trading day after the announcement of the adjustment of the performance commitment compensation plan, the stock price of Jiajiao reached the bottom again at intraday, to 6.22 yuan; it closed at 6.29 yuan, down 1.26%.

Since the beginning of the year, the stock price of Tianwei Foods has been falling. The stock price once reached 68 yuan, but now it has fallen to 28.4 yuan, a drop of about 58%, and its market value has fallen by more than half. The rolling price-earnings ratio of over 100 six months ago is now only 58.4.

A few days ago, the three executives and shareholders of Tianwei Foods reduced their holdings of 928,600 shares of the company, which did not exceed 0.1228% of the company’s total share capital. Tianwei Food plunged 10% immediately. This wave of shareholding reductions triggered market speculation, and even the executives of Tianwei Foods are not optimistic about their company. What happened to Tianwei Food, which rose by about 253% last year?

Performance fell short of expectations

In 2020, Tianwei Food’s business was 2.365 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 37%; the net profit of the parent company was 360 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 22.7%.

In 2020Q4, Tianwei Food’s performance has seen a significant decline. Operating income is only 845 million yuan, and the growth rate has dropped to 29.31%, which is far lower than the growth rate of 80.73% in the second quarter and 35.13% in the third quarter. The net profit attributable to the parent decreased by 56.54% year-on-year. Behind the substantial decrease in net profit attributable to the parent is high marketing expenses and management expenses, which accounted for 28.8% and 12.2% of the fourth quarter’s revenue respectively.

The hot pot bottom material industry has a low threshold, and market competition has always been fierce. Relevant data shows that in 2019, the top five hot pot bottom ingredients brands in my country’s hot pot bottom material industry are Yihai International, Tianwei Food, Hongjiujiu, Red Sun, and Dezhuang. The market shares of these major hot pot bottom material companies are not much different, all of which do not exceed 10%.

In addition to these companies specializing in hot pot ingredients, companies in the condiment market also hope to get a share of the hot pot market ingredients. Among them, the veteran condiment company Haitian Flavour launched the Haitian brand hot pot base ingredients in August 2020, and said it will accelerate the development of new categories such as hot pot base ingredients to form a new growth point in the future.

In order to cope with fierce market competition, Tianwei Foods has launched a “dual brand” strategy. Its “Dahongpao” brand is positioned at the affordable end of the mass market, while the “Good People” brand is positioned at the mid-to-high end, focusing on household consumption. On the one hand, the dual-brand strategy can cover as many consumers as possible; on the other hand, under fierce market competition, competing for the mid-to-high-end market can win more profit margins for Tianwei Food and avoid falling into low-end market price wars. Vicious competition. Tianwei Food hired traffic star Deng Lun as the brand spokesperson for “Good People” and titled the variety show “If You Are the One”, hoping to open up the mid-to-high-end hot pot bottoms market.

In addition, Tianwei Foods has also worked hard to expand sales channels. As of the end of 2020, Tianwei Foods has cooperated with more than 3,000 distributors, and 1780 new distributors have been added throughout the year. Channel sales have increased by 40%. The company’s management expenses have also increased.

Hot pot bottom material track is cold winter

I have to say that Tianwei Food has worked very hard, but hard work still cannot reverse its decline. The financial report for the first quarter of this year showed that the net profit growth rate of the parent company was 4.13%, which continued to be under pressure, and the stock price naturally fell all the way.

In fact, it is not only Tianwei Foods that suffered a sharp drop in stock prices in the hot pot bottoms industry. The hot pot soup boss Yihai International has not had a good time in the past six months. Since the beginning of the year, Yihai International’s stock price was 139.9 yuan at its peak, but now it has fallen to 53.3 yuan, a drop of about 62%, and its total market value has dropped by about 91 billion.

The downstream hot pot restaurant market is not optimistic either. Haidilao’s stock price was 85 yuan at its peak, and now its stock price has fallen to 39.1 yuan, a 54% drop; Xiabuxiabu’s stock price has fallen from its highest value of 25.4 yuan to 8.5 yuan, a drop of 67%; Jiumaojiu’s stock price has dropped from its highest value of 37.7 yuan. It fell to 28 yuan, a drop of 25.7%.

The overall hot pot market has been falling and falling together. The weak consumer demand since the epidemic is not on the one hand, and the performance is not as good as the expected institutional capital to leave the market to kill the valuation bubble and squeeze the bubble on the other.

The weak demand in the hot pot market is affecting the upstream hot pot bottom material market. Haidilao, which has always been known for its high turnover rate, has an annual turnover rate of 4.9 times per day from 2017 to 2019. After the epidemic, in 2020, Haidilao’s turnover rate was 3.5 times/day, a year-on-year decrease of 1.3 times/day. In April of this year, Haidilao’s rate of overturning was reduced to less than 3 times per day.

The consumption power of the market has not recovered as expected. Looking at the year-on-year trend of China’s social retail sales in the past 10 years, it can be found that since March 2020, the year-on-year growth rate of CPI has been negative. In April this year, China’s total retail sales of consumer goods increased by 17.1% year-on-year, which was far behind the expected growth rate of 25%.

The impact of the new crown epidemic on consumer demand has not subsided, and people’s confidence in future economic growth and income expectations are still conservative. Especially in the catering market where consumer tastes change, it is still unknown whether the hot pot industry can retain consumers’ hearts and reproduce the lively scene of the past.

Since last year, inflation has brought about rounds of structural market after another. On the track of hot pot, institutions are grouped together and hot money is pouring in. However, the market is often used to voting with their feet. The performance is not as good as expected, and it is natural to blame for being abandoned by capital. When the monetary policy is slowly tightening and the stock market pulls back, it is inevitable that the stock price will fall sharply.

Conclusion

The stock price has plummeted by over 60% in half a year, and it is estimated that Tianwei Foods is not in his heart. Consumer demand does not see a clear recovery momentum, the Fed’s recent interest rate policy is still unclear, and it is hard to say how long it will last for Tianwei to fall.

In terms of sectors, the electronics and automotive sectors bucked the market and rose, while the leisure services and non-ferrous metals sectors fell by more than 3%.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, the rainy season rained and wet the A shares. The high shock before the holiday was “inspiring”, and the plunge after the holiday was “sad”. On June 15, the first trading day after the Dragon Boat Festival, the performance of A shares was “unsatisfactory.” The two markets traded over one trillion yuan, and large market value stocks plummeted significantly.

What is the main logic of the A-share market opening on the first day after the holiday? From the perspective of fundamentals, valuation, liquidity, etc., what is the expected A-share market in the second half of the year? How to choose between large, medium and small market value and sectors?

“International Finance News” reporter interviewed several industry insiders. In their opinion, the current A-shares do not have the conditions for the index to rise sharply, and the hotspots collectively fell again, and the index continued to wash up and gather momentum. The upward momentum of the economy is still weak, liquidity is restricted, and equity market valuations are not low. In the second half of the year, income expectations should be lowered.

The first day after the holiday market “green fat red thin”

On June 15th, the three major A-share indexes rebounded slightly after falling in early trading, and then maintained a low and volatile trend, and the decline narrowed. As of the close, they all fell by about 1%. The Kechuang 50 Index bucked the market and opened higher and then fell back to close up.

In terms of sectors, the electronics and automotive sectors bucked the market and rose, while the leisure services and non-ferrous metals sectors fell by more than 3%. The performance of individual stocks was “green, fat, red and thin”, with 1351 individual stocks rising and 67 daily limit stocks; 2913 individual stocks falling, and 27 falling limit stocks.

In terms of popularity, the turnover of the two cities exceeded one trillion yuan, a slight decrease from the last trading day before the holiday. The net outflow of Beishang capital was 5.2 billion yuan, mainly reducing its holdings of WuXi AppTec, Zijin Mining, Ping An, etc., each of which exceeded 500 million yuan; Beishang capital also “started” Yanghe shares and BYD, and the net sales were about approximately 300 million yuan.

In the first half of the year, a total of 208.3 billion yuan of net inflows of funds from the north, including 88.8 billion yuan in Shanghai Stock Connect. Since June, the net inflow of funds from Beijing to Beijing is 1.5 billion yuan, of which Shenzhen Stock Connect has a net inflow of 1.4 billion yuan.

What is the main reason for the market decline after the holiday?

Qianming Asset Management Fund Manager Bai Yi analyzed to a reporter from the International Finance News that today’s market’s hot cyclical stocks and the concept of Hongmeng fell collectively, and the bull market trend sector securities also appeared to sell off. The deep-seated logic is that there are currently no conditions for the index to rise sharply, and the hotspots collectively fell again, so the index continues to wash up and gather momentum.

“The Shanghai Index fell below the 20th line on the first day after the Dragon Boat Festival, which exceeded most investors’ expectations.” Liu Youhua, head of research on private equity rownets, also told reporters that in terms of popularity, the turnover of the two markets still exceeded one trillion yuan. , The market is still hot, but structural opportunities are more difficult to grasp. In terms of liquidity, over-issuance of foreign currencies has led to global inflation expectations, while the continuous appreciation of the renminbi has led to continued inflows of foreign capital. This expectation will still exist in the second half of the year. From the perspective of individual stock fundamentals, the profitability of most individual stocks has improved, and the semi-annual report will be the focus of the market.

Wang Jiang, general manager of Yuanrong Investment’s stock department, said in an interview with a reporter from the International Finance News that the market tends to choose the direction of least resistance in the short term, which has a certain degree of randomness. On the macro level, the market focuses on US employment data. If employment is weak, the expected contraction of the balance sheet will be delayed, which is conducive to the stability of the valuation level. However, as time goes by, the window of desensitization of inflation data and employment data has not yet recovered is being consumed, and as the Fed’s interest rate meeting approaches, the market will inevitably be worried. “As far as the second half of the year is concerned, there are macro variables, and the current equity market valuation is hardly cheap, and it is reasonable to reduce income expectations. In terms of sectors, the optional consumption branch in the increase in penetration rate and the disturbance of raw material prices The sub-manufacturing sectors that have little real impact can be paid attention to.”

How to switch between large and small market capitalization opportunities

In the first half of the year, the Shanghai Composite Index rose more than 4%, the ChiNext Index rose more than 11%, and the Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 Index and the China Securities 1000 Index both rose more than 2%. Since June, there has been a significant gap in the index of individual stocks representing large, medium and small market capitalization. The Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 Index fell nearly 1% during the year, the Shanghai 50 Index fell more than 3%, and the CSI 1000 Index rose 2.5%.

How to choose large, medium and small market capitalization stocks in the second half of the year?

“Currently, large blue chips and Baotuan stocks are at historical highs, and the probability of shock adjustments in the second half of the year is relatively high; but small market capitalization, second-tier blue chips, and the financial sector are again in the historical underestimation range, and there is an upward trend in the second half of the year. The biggest opportunity in the second half of the year. The risk is the valuation of U.S. stocks, which severely restricts the rise of the big blue chips of A shares.” Bai Yixiang “International Finance” reporter estimated that in terms of liquidity, the central bank is expected to continue to implement moderate monetary policy, and foreign capital will continue to flow into A shares. tendency. On the whole, the index fluctuated more in the second half of the year. Focus on the upside opportunities of undervalued companies. On the sector, it is recommended to pay attention to TMT, domestic substitution, and post-epidemic sectors such as tourism, airports, ports, etc.

Lang Chengcheng, director of the research department of Furong Fund, bluntly stated to the reporter of “International Finance” that the market was mainly high and volatile last week, and structurally small and medium-sized market capitalization companies rose at the top. In fact, since May, from the rotation of large market value companies to small and medium market value companies, both types of companies have seen a certain degree of rise. The core logic is to restore the pessimistic expectations of liquidity. “As the semi-annual report and the 100th anniversary of the founding of the party approach, the round of rising prices may have reached the middle and late stages, and market volatility will increase. Small and medium-sized market value companies under the catalysis of the theme should be treated with caution.

“In the short-term, it is recommended to moderately control the investment rhythm, and be optimistic about low-value banks and some cyclical leaders; in the medium and long term, performance growth is still the core main line, and we are optimistic about the high-period cycle of electronics and electronics.” Lang Chengcheng further analyzed, economic fundamentals. Financing data reflect that the upward momentum of the economy is still weak, the scale of new social financing has fallen sharply year-on-year, and the year-on-year growth rate of the stock of social financing has also continued to decline. The South China Industrial Products Index has risen to a high level again. Last week, the US CPI rose by 5% year-on-year in May, exceeding expectations and setting the largest increase since August 2008. However, the yield of Treasury bonds has continued to decline since then. Compared with inflation, the Fed pays more attention to employment and economic recovery, focusing on the Fed’s interest rate meeting this week.

Institutional view: not overly optimistic in the second half of the year

In terms of sectors, cyclical stocks such as steel, mining, chemical, non-ferrous metals and other cyclical stocks ranked first in the year’s component range (total market value weighted average), with a rise of more than 14%; non-banking finance, defense and military industry, and household appliances all fell more than 11%.

In terms of price-to-earnings ratio PE (TTM, holistic approach), science and technology sectors such as computers, national defense and military industries, transportation, communications, electronics, and medical biology exceed 50 times, of which media, leisure services, and integrated sectors exceed 240 times. The lower valuations are steel, mining, non-banking finance, etc., less than 20 times, and banking, building decoration, and real estate sectors are less than 10 times.

How to choose sector investment in the second half of the year?

Chen Li, chief economist of Chuancai Securities and director of the research institute, predicts that in the second half of the year, sector rotation will become more frequent and structural differentiation will continue. Unlike last year’s single valuation drive and the dominant performance drive in the first half of this year, the market in the second half of the year will no longer be a competition among various industries, and more inclined to comparisons within the industry, with low internal valuations and growth rates. The fast company will become the leader, and vice versa, it will continue to fall. For example, the growth of mid-to-high-end liquor in the liquor industry is expected to have strong certainty; under the background of “carbon neutrality”, the new energy industry is expected to diverge, focusing on both the technological path and cost advantages; Pay attention to the three links.

Looking ahead to the second half of the A-share market, the strategy team of Ping An Securities predicts that the overall market will fluctuate upwards in the second half of the year, and will lay out structural opportunities for growth styles. The economy is basically facing the upward pressure of the market, and there are corresponding constraints on liquidity. However, continued favorable policies and funding levels in the second half of the year are expected to continue to increase risk appetite. Equity valuation is not overly optimistic from the perspective of equity-bond yield ratio and earnings expectations. . It is recommended to pay attention to the proliferation of new energy vehicles, new energy, semiconductors, new chemical materials, biomedicine and other industries, as well as the proliferation of investment opportunities for more companies in the high-prosperity industry chain.

Northeast Securities bluntly stated that the leading factor in the market in the second half of the year will be the topping of profits, and the overall market valuation will be difficult to increase, and low-value and high-prosperity industries will prevail. The market fluctuated in the second half of the year. From the perspective of profit calculations, the profit growth rate in the second half of the year is decreasing quarter by quarter. In terms of funding, the US Taper expectations and the decline in domestic credit entering the second half of the year led to tight macro liquidity in the second half of the year; the stock market remained neutral in the second half of the year, mainly due to the increase in the issuance of new funds at the inflow side and the slowdown in foreign capital inflows. The outflow-end IPO fundraising rose, and the lifting of the ban fell. In terms of valuation and sentiment, the advantages of small and medium-cap valuations are obvious and the position of individual stocks is still low; Sino-US relations and credit risks may still suppress risk appetite.

Bob has an experience in the United States. He said that there are no fewer phone scams in the United States than in China. When he was in the United States, he encountered several scam calls.

For example, one day, Bob received a phone call, and he was speaking in curry-scented English, asking if Bob’s computer would occasionally freeze.

At that time, the computer Xiaobai’s computer must have this kind of problem more or less after being used for a long time.

Bob is not a computer novice, and there is nothing wrong with the computer, but he realizes that something is wrong, and wants to see what kind of show operation this buddy wants to play, so he replied “yes” out of conscience.

The other side was very happy to hear this answer, and said, “Don’t wolli, I vill help U!” (Indian accent version, don’t worry, I will help you!)

Then he started to instruct Bob to go to a website to download a certain software. Blahblah said a lot, and finally asked “You understand?”. For this kind of low-level phishing software scam, Bob is naturally impossible to be fooled. He is very disappointed with the scams of the Indian buddies. So he decided to end the topic, and said to the other person “I am studying computer science, I can solve it by myself”, so angry that the other person could not speak, and hung up the phone. I praised Bob’s anti-fraud awareness. He shook his head humbly and said, mainly because the guy’s Indian accent made him vigilant. After all, the white people didn’t bother to do this. Black people generally can’t do this. . . In fact, Bob’s experience can reflect to a certain extent how rampant phone fraud cases are in the United States. According to a survey conducted by an app called Truecaller, phone fraud in the United States has become more and more serious in recent years. In 2020 alone, 56 million Americans were deceived, with a total loss of US$19.7 billion. What is the concept of 56 million people? They account for about 22% of the entire population of the United States, and these are the ones who have been defrauded of money. According to the survey, 30% of people in the U.S. have been scammed by phone scams, and 17% of them have been “scammed several times” . . . Everyone knows that bad reviewers are professionally trained. They usually don’t laugh when they comment on such serious things, unless they can’t help it. So when I saw this data, everyone was stupid. This American’s heart is too big, right? Is it really a per capita wealth boy? According to a data reported by the “New York Times”, phone fraud from India is the main force. The entire Indian phone scam industry, The annual “output value” is as high as 28 billion U.S. dollars, and about 1.2 million people are engaged in phone fraud. At the end of 2020, the police took down a call center in New Delhi, India. These 50 people alone defrauded more than 14 million U.S. dollars in the United States. On the official website of the U.S. Department of Justice, you can also read about India phoneThere are people in India working on fraud cases as early as 2013, and it has a long history. So the question is, why is it in India? phoneCan fraud develop into such a huge industry? For this matter, the major Western companies are still to be blamed. As we all know, India is a country with a large population, and it is also a populous country with English as one of its official languages. Large companies such as Google and Microsoft have money, but the cost of recruiting people as customer service in their own country is too high, so they set their sights on India, which is not so rich but has a lot of people. Many large companies have set up manual customer service call centers in India, and adopted the method of “training on duty” to correct their accents and grammatical habits. This kind of high-end foreign company outsourcing work is a good way out for many poor Indians. After all, it has a very low threshold. They are all Indians. Who doesn’t speak a few English anymore? As a result, a large number of people have received induction training, and manual customer service has even become a dream job for many people. Picture source: @正解局▼ But training belongs to training. After all, there are only a few positions. Those who have received training but can’t go to work think of the crooked way of phone fraud, and this way of making money is much faster than being a customer service. In addition, India has a large population and fierce competition for employment. Every year, educational institutions train a large number of software engineers, but only 20% of them can find decent jobs. Some of the remaining people provide “technical support” for phone fraud, such as using crawler software to obtain personal information of victims, and so on. In addition to labor and technology, India phoneScams are the same as phone scams in Southeast Asia. They use different scams based on the characteristics of the American population. For example, a refund scam specifically for the elderly tells them that there is a refund available, but there is a problem with the bank transfer system. Then he proposed that he needed to remotely connect and manipulate the elderly’s computer to log in to the online bank account and pretend to transfer money to the elderly. In fact, the displayed amount was changed by modifying the front-end code of the web page. Then told the old man that they accidentally transferred too much money and needed the old man to transfer the money back to carry out a wave of empty glove white wolf. For those old people who don’t understand the code, it’s easy to believe them and get cheated of money. There is a computer technical support scam (Bob has encountered that kind),Use phishing websites to induce others to download Trojan horse programs and steal bank account passwords. Or you may use hackers to hack into the victim’s computer to blackmail, and wait for your pornographic photos to be seen on the entire network without paying. Targeting young people, they will use other scams, such as the threat of drug dealing. Since a large number of young people in the United States have been exposed to drugs such as marijuana, these scammers will pretend to be employees of the US Drug Enforcement Administration and claim to have found his bank account on the side of the drug cartel. At the same time, the victim will be told his real address, making the victim panic ▼ Then tell the victim to wait for someone to come and go to jail, unless you pay the money to get acquitted. Faced with such a serious accusation, these young people naturally couldn’t grasp it, and paid on the spot before thinking about it. Some of these scams are even aimed at immigrants who have just arrived in the United States. Scammers will call these new immigrants to pretend that they are from the tax bureau, saying that they are tax evasion and tax evasion. The penalties for tax evasion in the United States are very serious. The key is that there are many miscellaneous taxes. Many newcomers do not know whether they have missed the payment, so they are deceived by scammers. Recently, due to the epidemic, there were not enough hospital beds and oxygen inhalers in the United States. India also invented a scam to sell oxygen cylinders. The money was paid before the goods. The victims disappeared as soon as the money was transferred, deceiving many people. The entire Twitter is that people are reporting scams related to the epidemic. This is a fire extinguisher changed to an oxygen tank ▼ In fact, these scams have flaws. For example, some scammers even ask victims to pay “fines” through Apple Google App Store gift cards, Bitcoin, etc., which is very problematic at first glance. However, the key to all scams is to fascinate the “authorities.” From the perspective of God, we naturally think that such scams are not good, but there is no way to be sure that we will not be fooled in the position of the victim. For example, a colleague in our editorial department was cheated of 40,000 yuan after a hangover one day. Since India phoneScams are so prevalent in the United States, why don’t the U.S. officials carry out a wave of cleanup? Because transnational law enforcement is quite difficult. The nature of this matter is that the Indians are defrauding people, and the Indian side needs to cooperate in arresting people, the deceived are Americans, and the victims in the United States need to file a lawsuit. When those Indians are caught, the local courts will need evidence to sentence them, such as the transfer records of victims in the United States, and it cannot be a casual victim. It must be a victim of scams by those caught. This directly led to the difficulty of the police on both sides wanting to do things, and the fact that they didn’t pay enough attention to them, all of them were slowing down. Officials did not act, but some civil forces in the United States launched a resistance. One of the most famous is Jim Browning, the owner of the tubing UP. He is a highly skilled hacker who has uploaded a lot of content related to overseas scams he discovered on YouTube since seven years ago. In recent years, due to the increasing number of phone scams in India, he also focused his attention on this. He once hacked into the computer camera of an Indian fraud call center and recorded the entire process of the fraudster’s crimes. According to the IP address of this computer, he also located the location of this studio, which is located in Kolkata, India, and even found the specific building. In addition, he is also very phoneThe scammer conducted a wave of “returning to the other side” and made a video, pretending to be deceived, and allowing the scammer to connect with him remotely. Then show the scammer the real identity photos of the scammer he collected early, such as his working place. Ask the scammer if he knows this computer, and is it familiar or not? ▼ And the tools he usually uses. He also asked some specific information about the photos, such as where he took these photos, and found that the scammer was still lying, saying that he took the photos on the company computer. Jim: You are taking pictures of your laptop screen. Liar: Ah this. . . %^&$, yes, yes. (Frustrated)▼ Jim ruthlessly debunked the fact that he took the photo in his own home and told him that the photo was positioned, which meant that the home address of the scammer had been exposed. The liar immediately panicked, turned off the photo on the spot, and cut off the call. Jim: You are scamming in your own home, and you have been lying just now. Liar: Sir, I don’t have one. . . ▼ I can only say that this video of Jim is really refreshing after watching, and the old Murong has recovered! Jim has a lot of Indian scammers realInformation, even the ID cards of many people are available. He sometimes cooperates with other tubing UP (Such as Scammer Payback), To implement his own justice in a “Robin Hood” way. For example, they pretend to be deceived, make a remote connection with the liar, and then use the goose on the screen to pick up the liar’s ID card bit by bit in front of the liar. Scammer Payback will also broadcast live “fishing” scammers, playing tricks on scammers, and it makes people feel very happy. UP owners who focus on anti-fraud, such as Jim Browning and Scammer Payback, have many fans on YouTube, and each video has at least several million views. People who have seen these videos are naturally lucky, and they have a high probability of avoiding phone fraud. But more people don’t know this, and they are still being fooled by phone scams. With the development of the Internet, more and more gray industries are showing a “regional” distribution characteristic, such as the telephone fraud industry in Southeast Asia and India. Criminals use the convenience of the Internet to commit crimes across borders to avoid risks and cheat on a global scale.

From the Financial Association (Shenzhen, reporter Zou Chenhui), Dongxing Securities has ushered in the latest progress in its fixed increase in fundraising, and this is also the 15th listed securities firm to launch a fixed increase since last year. In addition, there are already 11 brokerages that have refinanced through allotment.

The latest announcement of Dongxing Securities stated that the fixed increase application has been reviewed and approved by the China Securities Regulatory Commission, and the company will make another announcement after receiving the official documents reviewed by the China Securities Regulatory Commission.

The China Securities Regulatory Commission has successively revised the Measures for the Management of Risk Control Indexes for Securities Companies and the Risk Control Indexes for Securities Companies. The Regulations on Calculation Standards have further improved the risk control index system of securities companies with net capital and liquidity as the core, and has put forward higher standards for the risk management of securities companies.

They just kept getting longer and longer.” she said. “I went to the therapist, but they couldn’t say anything more than exclaim that this is amazing. I tried to understand the problem from a scientific perspective, such as genetics, but there was no one there. My family has long eyelashes like me. I can’t explain it.” “While pondering, I remembered that I had spent 480 days of meditation in the mountains many years ago. Therefore, this could be a gift from heaven to me.” Jianzia admits she believes in spirituality more, and says that long eyelashes help her look younger and healthier. “My health is very good now, while I was weak when I was young. Not only have I gotten stronger, but I have also been praised by many people for being young.” , she said happily.

Status: 14.06.2021 11:16 a.m.

The list of companies that want to go public on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange this year is getting longer and longer. Now the online optician Mister Spex is also planning to go out onto the floor to finance its expansion course. The Berlin online optician Mister Spex needs fresh money to finance its expansion plans abroad and wants to go public on the Frankfurt stock exchange by the end of September. The company would like to sell new shares from a capital increase as well as papers from existing shareholders and raise at least 225 million euros. It is Mister Spex’s second attempt to go public.

Ultimately, however, the company managed to raise the necessary money through new financing rounds from private investors, so that the IPO was canceled.

Global Growth Capital, a subsidiary of the Internet holding company Rocket Internet, also provided a loan.

Strong increase in sales

Founder and CEO Dirk Graber is quoted as saying: “The IPO is the next logical step for us to strengthen our position as a leading, fundamentally digitally oriented European omnichannel optical brand and to support our long-term growth strategy.” In fact, since its founding at the end of 2007, Mister Spex has succeeded in taking market share from the dominant optician chains in Germany, Fielmann and Apollo, and showing that buying glasses on the Internet can work just as well as in brick-and-mortar stores. Last year, the company increased its sales disproportionately to 164 million euros (plus 18 percent), while Fielmann’s revenues fell by six percent to 1.4 billion euros.

The managing director Mirko Caspar told the “Handelsblatt” that in the long term half of the sales should be generated in the branches. The figures showed that the combination of online shop, own stores and 400 partner opticians enabled rapid and extensive growth.

Daily economic news

Pandemic meets craft Hairdressers suffer – bicycle workshops cheer

Status: 11.06.2021 2:38 p.m.

The German trade clearly felt the consequences of the pandemic at the beginning of the year. Most of the sales fell. But there were also a few bright spots. The corona crisis has left deep marks on German craftsmanship. Some areas suffered particularly badly at the beginning of the year, while others bucked the trend and even posted gains. According to calculations by the Federal Statistical Office, sales in the craft sector fell from January to March by 7.5 percent compared to the same period of the previous year. That was the first time in eight years that the industry, which had been spoiled for success for a long time, posted declines. The weak development was accompanied by fewer staff. The number of employees in the skilled trades that required a license fell by 1.7 percent by the end of March.

The comparative period was hardly affected by the crisis

It should be noted that restrictions due to the corona pandemic did not begin until the end of the first quarter of 2020 and the results of the beginning of 2020 were hardly affected, the statisticians explained. There is thus a typical case of a so-called base effect. A high baseline makes declines more likely at a later point in time.

Lockdown slows demand

Crafts for private use were particularly hard hit. Here the minus was 23 percent. In this area, the hairdressing businesses marked the highest decline with minus 37 percent.

Not enough material

In construction, too, with a decline of almost 16 percent, things did not go well. “Companies have to register short-time working when the order books are full because they have no material,” the President of the Central Association of German Crafts (ZDH), Hans Peter Wollseifer, had only recently warned. The Prices for wood and other building materials have risen sharply on the world market, partly because of the great demand from China and the USA. While the food industry complained about a decline of almost ten percent, the business in confectioneries collapsed by 21 percent.

The bicycle boom drives business

The ongoing bicycle boom apparently brought the two-wheel mechanics significantly more repairs. These branches of industry achieved almost 27 percent more sales than a year ago. In addition, only roller shutter technicians and dental technicians recorded an increase in sales.

When it comes to Xi’an Small Wild Goose Pagoda, no one is unfamiliar. This dense eaves brick tower built in the first year of Emperor Jinglong in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, after more than 1,300 years, is still one of the most important landmarks in the city of Xi’an. In 2014, as the site of the “Silk Road” project, the Small Wild Goose Pagoda was included in the “World Heritage List”. Compared with its sister tower and the big wild goose pagoda, which is full of tourists, the small wild goose pagoda, which is open for free, seems to be more popular among Xi’an people. Classical gardens surround this thousand-year-old tower. The quiet environment and profound background always make many old Xi’an visits constantly. Starting from March 25, 2020, the Little Wild Goose Pagoda was temporarily closed due to landscape maintenance until it finally reopened on April 30 this year. After a lapse of a year, what has changed in the Little Wild Goose Pagoda after the renovation and upgrade? Hurry up and follow Xiao Yu’s lens to take a look! May 2021 Small Wild Goose Pagoda After learning about the reopening of the Little Wild Goose Pagoda, Xiao Yu quickly took the time to stroll around. The day I came was within a week, and I saw the sight of tourists queuing into the park when I arrived at the gate. It can be seen that the popularity of the Small Wild Goose Pagoda is still quite high. Change 1: To enter the park, you need to make an online appointment in advance and swipe your ID card to enter The Little Wild Goose Pagoda has always been open to tourists for free. Before the renovation and upgrading, you need to bring your ID card to the scenic window in exchange for tickets. Now book free tickets directly on Meituan and Dianping, and you can enter the park by swiping your ID card when you arrive. Personally, I feel that it is much more convenient. Although there are a lot of tourists in line, I still enter the scenic spot very quickly. At the same time, the ticket exchange window is still reserved to facilitate the entry of foreign tourists with passports and tourists with other documents such as household registration books and driver’s licenses. May 2021 Small Wild Goose Pagoda The fence in the picture above (picture 3) is the ticket gate of the original Little Wild Goose Pagoda. Now the entrance to the park is directly placed at the outermost antique gate building (Figure 2), which is equivalent to expanding the scope of the scenic spot. At the same time, the eastern part of the Little Wild Goose Pagoda, which originally belonged to the parking lot of the scenic spot, has also been closed to become part of the scenic spot. I went around and found that there were no other buildings, only large lawns, but it also expanded the scope of the scenic spot as a whole. Change 2: The classical garden becomes a large lawn, which one do you prefer? Everyone knows that the Little Wild Goose Pagoda was originally a tall tower in Jianfu Temple of the Tang Family Temple in the Tang Dynasty, but today, the temple no longer exists. The current Small Wild Goose Pagoda and Xi’an Museum are an overall 4A scenic spot, including the classical garden area and the Xi’an Museum. The classical garden area where the Small Wild Goose Pagoda is located still retains the classical central axis architectural layout. The central axis includes Baiyi Pavilion, Small Wild Goose Pagoda, Zangjing Pavilion, Daxiong Hall, Cishi Pavilion, Nanshan Gate and other ancient buildings in Ming and Qing Dynasties from north to south. There are two courtyards on the east and west sides. I came to visit the Little Wild Goose Pagoda this time, and all the indoor buildings were not open. These halls were originally the exhibition halls of the Silk Road culture and the history of the Small Wild Goose Pagoda, and they are still under repair. So the focus of the tour is on the outdoors. In my opinion, the biggest change in the entire Little Wild Goose Pagoda is the small courtyard on the east side. May 2019 Small Wild Goose Pagoda across the Cuiyuan May 2021 Small Wild Goose Pagoda across the Cuiyuan The small courtyard on the east side is called “Ge Cui Yuan”. It originally contained a stele pavilion with large and small stone steles and horse-locking stones. Now it has been renovated and turned into a closed corridor-shaped building. Because it is not open, I don’t know what it is inside. The yard was originally planted with peony, rose and other flowers of various colors. When I came in May of previous years, it was like a classical garden, very beautiful. Now the garden has become a lawn, and the style is completely different. Put two sets of photos from the same angle, taken in May 2019 and May 2021 respectively. Let’s see which style you prefer? May 2019 Small Wild Goose Pagoda across the Cuiyuan May 2021 Small Wild Goose Pagoda across the Cuiyuan Change three: add lounge bar and Changan ancient music performance In the courtyard on the west side opposite the Cuiyuan on the east side, there are two indoor buildings that have been closed. I came again this time and found that it has been changed to open. One was changed to a Chang’an ancient music performance, and visitors need to buy tickets to enter; one was changed to a gourmet lounge, where visitors under the pergola ordered drinks and rested. 2021 Little Wild Goose Pagoda West Courtyard Change four: missing red lanterns Although the interior buildings are not open this time, I still found some small changes in it during the tour. That is, there are no red lanterns hanging on the original building in the Little Wild Goose Pagoda. Perhaps it is to restore the quaint feeling of the ancient building itself? Still put two sets of photos with the same angle, you can see the changes. 2021 Little Goose Pagoda and Great Hall of Heroes 2019 Little Goose Pagoda and Great Hall of Heroes May 2021 Small Wild Goose Pagoda May 2019 Small Wild Goose Pagoda Speaking of so many changes in the Little Wild Goose Pagoda, in fact, the core landscape, the Little Wild Goose Pagoda, still stands tall and has not changed. As a typical work of the square brick tower in early my country, the Little Goose Pagoda can be said to be a precious artistic heritage of Buddhist architecture in the Tang Dynasty in my country. The legendary story about the “three shocks and three combinations” of the Little Wild Goose Pagoda has always been talked about by people. However, the Little Wild Goose Pagoda is still undergoing internal repairs, and it is not yet possible to climb the tower. May 2019 Small Wild Goose Pagoda The small wild goose pagoda scenic area in May is full of ancient trees and green trees. Take time to stroll around! May 2021 Small Wild Goose Pagoda Finally, I will talk about some useful travel information, friends who want to come can refer to: The Small Wild Goose Pagoda is located on Youyi West Road, South Gate, Xi’an, with convenient transportation. You can take a bus to the “Little Wild Goose Pagoda” station, or take the subway to the “Nanshaomen” station, and then walk for 15 minutes. It’s free and open, but you need to book an e-ticket on Meituan or Dianping in advance. When you come, you can swipe your ID card to enter the park.

Consumption around the EM Will football boost the economy?

Status: 11.06.2021 09:55 a.m.

Normally, major sporting events create a special boom in the economy. At the EM this year it will be a little different. From Notker Blechner, tagesschau.de Actually, the “Euro 2020” should stimulate Europe’s economy, especially tourism. For the first time, the European Football Championship will take place in several countries – so the organizers originally hoped that thousands of fans would travel across Europe, go out to eat, shop and stay in hotels. But because of the corona pandemic, this calculation no longer works. Most cities will have a limited number of viewers. Many fans refrain from traveling and prefer to stay at home in front of the television at home.

Only limited economic stimulus

The direct economic effects on the host countries of the EM are likely to be limited. The travel industry, gastronomy and hotel business are not expecting a large boost from foreign guests. Even in the only German European Championship host city Munich, the expectations are not too high. Especially since there was no special boom for the construction industry in the run-up to the tournament – unlike at previous events. Most of the stadiums have not been specially modernized for the European Championship, as is usually the case with major sporting events. The infrastructure in the host cities was also not extensively renovated. “Since the games are being played all over Europe, there was no need to invest heavily,” explains Gert Wagner from the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW) tagesschau.de .

No million investments in infrastructure and stadiums

It was different at the previous European Championships: For the Euro 2012 in Poland and Ukraine. Ukraine invested eleven percent of their gross domestic product and Poland seven percent in the expansion of the stadiums and infrastructure, as the Berenberg Bank has calculated. However, the hoped-for economic boom did not materialize afterwards – at least in Ukraine. The 2016 European Championships in France were more successful: hosting the tournament in their own country cost a good 200 million euros in public expenditure. This contrasted with 1.2 billion euros in revenue. According to an estimate by the European football association UEFA, half of these came from foreign visitors. Not included in the balance sheet, however, are the costs of 1.6 billion euros for the construction and modernization of the French stadiums. This time, the EM should bring the greatest impetus to domestic consumption. Many Germans are expected to spend more money on new televisions, beer, chips, grilled food and maybe a few fan items in June and July in order to watch the European Championship games in their own four walls or in the garden at home. “Basically, consumer goods companies that do a lot of advertising benefit, sporting goods outfitters, food manufacturers and of course beer brands that do particularly well when the weather is good. When there is a barbecue, more beer is drunk,” says capital market strategist Oliver Roth from banking house Oddo Seydler.

More business with TV sets?

According to a survey by the trade association HDE, 41 percent of electronics retailers expect higher sales. Because experience from past major sports events shows that “before and after the start of the tournament, particularly large TV sets are purchased”, according to the market watchers from Nuremberg-based GfK. Electronics retail chains such as MediaMarkt Saturn are already feeling “an increasing interest in large-format TV sets”. After the end of the corona lockdown, the Germans’ desire to consume is likely to reawaken anyway. During the pandemic, many German citizens had no way of spending their money on travel or expensive restaurant and concert visits.

Brewers increase their capacities

Other industries also believe in an EM effect. Every third grocer is hoping for more income from the European Championship, according to the HDE survey. The brewers in particular have increased their capacities and are hoping for good summer business. However, Corona continues to get in their way. Because public viewings, where the beer flows freely, will probably only take place on a small scale. So far, “our business has only been running with slowed-down foam,” explains Holger Eichele, General Manager of the German Brewers’ Association. The sporting goods manufacturers are traditionally considered to be the greatest beneficiaries of a European Football Championship. Adidas, Nike, Puma & Co have been preparing for months with extensive marketing and advertising campaigns for the sporting event of the year. The further the national team they have equipped goes, the better business with the jerseys is. Adidas and Nike deliver a duel here. The brand with the three stripes has three favorites for the title: Spain, Belgium and Germany. Nike can score with world champion and title contender France as well as with secret favorite England. Adidas also provides the official match ball, the Uniforia.

It depends on the cut

How big the consumption effect is in different countries ultimately depends on how well your own team performs. Should the kickers of the outgoing national coach Jogi Low manage a new edition of the “summer fairy tale” from 2006 or 2014, the consumer mood in Germany is likely to jump even stronger. In the betting offices, however, the Löw team is only considered an outsider this time. In the past, winning a World Cup or European Championship title not only boosted consumption, but also infected the stock markets. The stock market of the respective European or world champions usually developed better than the MSCI World Index after the tournaments. DIW economist Wagner, however, considers the psychological impulse to be the most important: “We will get a demonstration that we have the pandemic largely under control in Europe. That will be an important signal.”

From the perspective of subdivided stocks, the gains are even more amazing. Pull the timeline to look at the gains. Stocks that have doubled are everywhere. Three leading leaders: ST Shede (willing to wine), ST Zotye, and ST Rock.

And the wine industry is the leader of the ST sector’s surge. Since September last year, the company’s cumulative increase has exceeded 6 times, corresponding to a total market value of more than 70 billion.

The logic of capital speculation in the wine industry lies in two points: one is that it did not rise because the major shareholder was bad, and the valuation of the stock price plummeted after ST was underestimated. The adjustment strategy of the company’s management made the company’s performance start again, and it took off some time ago.

According to the first quarter report of 2021, the company’s operating income for the first quarter of 2021 was 1.028 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 154.21%; net profit was 302 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1031.19%. The 2020 annual report shows that the company achieved revenue of 2.704 billion yuan in 2020, a year-on-year increase of 2.02%; net profit was 581.1 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 14.42%.

Another point is that the liquor sector continued to be sought after by funds in the second half of last year, which gave the willingness to the wine industry a good stock price environment. After all, the business model of liquor is the top class in the A-share consumer track field, enjoying a high valuation premium and institutional grouping. trend.

Therefore, under the leadership of the willing wine industry this year, the ST sector has set off a big market. The main logic is to focus on low valuations. After the bubble of group stocks is superimposed, some funds are looking for low valuations in other sectors to speculate. .

Moreover, from the recent institutional survey actions, last week, according to data, a number of ST companies received institutional research, including *ST Huaying, *ST Kodi, *ST Lion, *ST Zhongfu, ST Six companies, Senyuan and ST Xintong.

These companies focus on new energy, consumption and technology. From the perspective of ST Mengshi, one company mainly focuses on R&D, production and sales of various types of batteries. From 2017 to 2020, the net profit of *ST Mengshi is -1.39 respectively. 100 million yuan, 2.777 billion yuan, 152 million yuan, and 1.814 billion yuan. Only in 2019 due to debt restructuring exempted debt to achieve profitability, the company abbreviation was also changed from “ST Lion” to “ST Lion”.

However, since its audited net assets attributable to shareholders of listed companies at the end of the 2020 period are negative, on April 30 this year, the company once again “wears stars and hats.”

It is worth noting that the asset restructuring plan disclosed by *ST Lions in 2018 has not been completed until today, and there is still uncertainty about whether it can be successfully completed. *ST Kedi introduced that the reorganization of major shareholders is proceeding in an orderly manner; *ST Zhongfu stated that in the first quarter of 2021, due to the continuous rise in aluminum prices and the commissioning of the Guangyuan electrolytic aluminum project, the profit of the electrolytic aluminum business increased; it was also affected by the company and its subsidiaries. After entering the judicial reorganization, the suspension of interest accrual in accordance with the law affected the reduction of financial expenses and achieved profitability in the first quarter.The company’s debt restructuring is currently being carried out in an orderly manner

For ST stocks, the fundamentals of these companies are very poor. What can be seen is whether the company’s management can make substantial adjustments and changes, and then stay in the capital market, so that there is a gap in expectations, but for institutions, The survey is only to understand that if you want to build a large-scale position and buy, in fact, there is also the risk judgment of the institution itself.

Moreover, in addition to the recent attention of ST stocks by institutions, there are also several companies that have also been extensively investigated by institutions.

Survey of more than 150 institutions

According to Wind data, in the past week, more than 370 institutions including securities companies and fund companies investigated 124 A-share listed companies, covering dozens of subdivisions such as chemicals, machinery, electronic equipment, electronic components, and construction engineering.

Among them, Tuopu Group and Hairong Technology have received surveys from more than 150 institutions. However, these two companies have increased by more than 30%.

As a Tesla concept star stock, Tuopu Group is mainly engaged in the research and development, production and sales of rubber shock absorption products and sound insulation products in the field of automotive NVH (vibration, noise reduction and comfort control).

The technology and R&D level in the automotive NVH field ranks in the forefront of the country. It is one of the few domestic NVH parts suppliers with the ability to synchronize the research and development of the entire vehicle, and it is also the earliest domestic independent entry into the global vehicle supporting parts procurement system Brand auto parts manufacturer.

The latest performance shows that in the first quarter, revenue was 2.426 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 100.8%, profit attributable to the parent was 246 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 116.4%, and net profit attributable to the parent after deduction was 240 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 122.9%.

New orders promote performance, and the Tier0.5 cooperation model has already cooperated with new leading car-building forces such as RIVIAN, Xiaopeng, Weilai, and Ideal.

Hairong Technology is a professional company integrating R&D, production and sales of raw materials in the baking industry, including dozens of high-quality food raw materials in three categories, including non-dairy cream, non-dairy cream containing milk fat, jam, and chocolate. It already has two production bases in Shanghai, China and New Delhi, India. The current stock price corresponds to PE54.8 times.

In 2020, the total operating income will be 572 million yuan, a decrease of 2.04% year-on-year. In 2021, the total operating income will be 157 million yuan, +43.91% year-on-year; the net profit attributable to the parent in 2020 will be 87 million yuan, an increase of 13.18% year-on-year. In 2021, Q1 will be returned to the parent Net profit was 16 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 323.76%; in 2020, net profit attributable to the parent after deduction was 83 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 10.92%.

In terms of the market outlook, institutions have different views. Take Industrial Securities as an example: the world staged a “value stock bull market”. The Chinese market need not worry too much. A large amount of liquidity is still accumulated in the currency and bond markets, and global funds flow to the stock market. It also flows to emerging markets, of which China has benefited the most. Valuation is down and profitability is up. We continue to be optimistic about the main line of global recovery. It is recommended that the short-term performance is quickly implemented, rather than telling stories and speculating in expected industries and individual stocks.

In terms of specific directions, Industrial Securities recommends grasping three main lines: the first is the global recovery with rising volume and price of mid-upstream cyclical manufactured products; the second is the service-oriented consumption that has gradually recovered from the epidemic; the third is the main line of carbon neutrality.

Company location Less bankruptcies instead of bankruptcies

Status: 10.06.2021 11:38 a.m.

The number of companies filing for bankruptcy in Germany fell in the first few months of the year. Other numbers also indicate no bankruptcy wave so far. But there were significantly more consumer bankruptcies. In the current year, the wave of bankruptcies feared as a result of the corona crisis has not materialized in Germany so far. From January to March, 3762 companies filed for bankruptcy, as the Federal Statistical Office announced. That meant a decrease of 19.7 percent compared to the first quarter of the previous year. “The economic hardship of many companies due to the Corona crisis was therefore not yet reflected in an increase in the number of reported corporate insolvencies,” explained the statisticians. The number of regular insolvency proceedings opened gives indications of further developments. In May, this was seven percent below the value of the previous month. In April there was even a decline of 17 percent after significant growth rates had been registered in February and March.

Effect of the Corona exception rules

One reason for the low number of company bankruptcies in the current year is the obligation to file for insolvency, which was temporarily suspended during the Corona crisis, for insolvent and over-indebted companies. Insolvent companies have had to file for bankruptcy again since October 2020. This obligation was suspended until the end of December for over-indebted companies. For companies that have been waiting for the payment of the government aid that has been planned since November, the obligation to apply for insolvency proceedings since May 1, 2021 applies again in full in the event of an imbalance. On average, the companies affected by insolvency in the first quarter were larger than in the same period of the previous year. At 17.1 billion euros, the expected claims of the creditors were well above the figure for the same period in the previous year of 7.3 billion euros.

Consumer bankruptcies have risen sharply

The number of consumer bankruptcies developed differently than with companies. This rose in the first quarter by more than half compared to the same period of the previous year to 22,686. “The sharp increase is related to a law to gradually shorten residual debt discharge procedures from six to three years,” explained the Federal Statistical Office. The new regulation enables those affected to make a quicker economic fresh start after insolvency proceedings. “It can therefore be assumed that many over-indebted private individuals initially withheld their application for bankruptcy in order to benefit from the new regulation,” it said.

Private wealth at a record high Especially the super-rich get richer

Status: 10.06.2021 8:34 a.m.

Never before have people worldwide amassed so much private wealth as in the Corona year 2020. The wealth of Germans alone climbed – thanks to savings and real estate – to almost 20 trillion dollars. 20,000,000,000,000 dollars – this is the impressive sum of private wealth that private households in Germany had at their disposal in 2020. This emerges from the new “Global Wealth Report” by the Boston Consulting Group (BCG).

Better real estate than stocks

The Germans were helped by their much-cited propensity to save: financial assets, including cash, account balances, stocks, pensions and life insurance, grew by around six percent to around nine trillion dollars, according to the information. Investors in Germany saved above average, emphasized Anna Zakrzewski, BCG partner and author of the study. “Traditionally, Germans prefer to invest in real estate rather than in securities, as the real value quota of almost 60 percent clearly shows,” says the BCG expert. In the crisis year 2020, the real assets of Germans, i.e. real estate, jewelry, art and gold, increased by five percent to 13 trillion dollars. After deducting debts, private households in Germany had a total of just under $ 20 trillion.

Rising stock market prices, growing savings

The developments in Germany are a reflection of a global trend: people around the globe accumulated more wealth than ever in the year of the Corona crisis. Private financial assets rose year-on-year by a good eight percent to a record $ 250 trillion. Rising stock exchange prices and growing savings contributed to this. The BCG experts were surprised, as they expected a year ago that private assets would melt as a result of the corona pandemic. For the first time in 2020, the BCG experts will also consider property such as real estate or gold. Total assets minus debt was $ 431 trillion.

2900 super-rich in Germany

However, wealth is unevenly distributed. Above all, the club of the rich and super-rich grew strongly. The super rich – these are people with a net worth of more than $ 100 million. In the crisis year 2020, 6000 more people were accepted into the club of the super-rich, the number of members grew to 60,000. According to the BCG, these 60,000 people own 15 percent of the world’s investable wealth. In Germany alone there are 2,900 super-rich. This puts the Federal Republic of Germany in third place in the global ranking. The USA is at the top, followed by China.

Getting richer?

Against the background of the expected economic recovery after the Corona crisis, BCG expects steady growth in global private wealth for the coming years. By 2025, it should grow by an average of just under five percent annually to $ 544 trillion. Global inequalities are likely to increase further: According to the BCG forecast, people in North America, Asia excluding Japan and Western Europe in particular will get richer.

Sales increase The chemical industry is raging

As of: 06/09/2021 3:54 p.m.

The third largest German branch of industry has reached the pre-crisis level again. After growth in the first quarter, the chemical industry raised its forecast for the year. The pharmaceutical business in particular is doing better than expected. Despite the rise in raw material prices and delivery problems, the German chemical industry continued on its growth path in the first three months of the year. As announced by the German Chemical Industry Association (VCI), the sector increased its sales by 1.1 percent to 51.3 billion euros compared to the same period in the previous year. Production increased by 0.8 percent. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, sales growth was even 3.6 percent.

Again above pre-crisis levels

With the sustained upward trend, the third largest German industrial sector – after the car and machine builders – has already compensated for the corona dent. Production and sales are now back above pre-crisis levels. Above all, exports to EU countries increased. In addition, there was the increasing demand from Asia. The chemical industry was also able to grow in the German home market – thanks to higher prices.

“Hope for a good year in chemistry”

VCI President Christian Kullmann, who is also the head of the chemical company Evonik, was delighted with the development. “The first few months give hope for a good year in chemistry,” he said. “The demand for chemicals and pharmaceuticals is increasing.” The industry association is now even more optimistic about the year as a whole. For 2021, the VCI predicts sales growth of eight percent and an increase in production of 4.5 percent. So far, a plus of five percent in sales and an increase of three percent in production had been forecast.

Price increases and corona vaccines as drivers

Strong price increases for the chemical and pharmaceutical products manufactured should make a significant contribution to this. The association is anticipating 3.5 percent higher prices for the year as a whole. The chemical industry is also benefiting from the corona vaccine boom. There are numerous suppliers for the vaccines from BioNTech, Moderna & Co, including Evonik and Wacker Chemie. You act as a technology supplier or as a contract manufacturer.

Worry about delivery bottlenecks

Only supply bottlenecks for materials and intermediate products are dampening the good mood in the chemical industry. “They are now affecting the operational processes of every second company,” warned VCI President Kullmann. However, the situation should ease again in the course of the year. In March, the blockade of the Suez Canal interrupted the supply chain from Asia in the chemical industry. Around 16 percent of chemical imports and 18 percent of exports take this route.

Huge green electricity demand for climate neutrality

In addition, the more stringent climate protection targets are making the industry difficult. “The way there remains in the fog”, said recently Wolfgang Große Entrup, General Manager of the VCI. “For the new goal, our industry needs more electricity than Germany currently consumes overall – as green electricity.” If the industry does not get competitive prices for electricity from renewable energies, it will not manage the energy transition. In spring 2020, the association presented a study in which it considers climate neutrality by 2050 to be technically feasible. For this, however, enormous additional amounts of green electricity are required. By the mid-2030s, the chemical industry’s electricity needs will increase more than tenfold. In addition, the electricity price would have to drop to four cents per kilowatt hour, demanded the VCI. The industry currently pays between eight and ten cents per kilowatt hour.

BASF is pushing ahead

VCI President Kullmann considers the renewed tightening of climate protection targets and the more rapid increase in CO2 prices called for by the Greens in their election manifesto as “irresponsible”. At the annual chemistry conference of the “Handelsblatt”, he warned that those who shackle the industry put the ax to their transformation. Good politics are based on incentives and not on bans. BASF is one of the first chemical companies to commit to reducing greenhouse gas emissions to zero on a fixed date. The people of Ludwigshafen want to become climate neutral by 2050. Among other things, one should help huge wind farm in the North Sea that BASF is planning together with RWE . The plant with a capacity of two gigawatts is to supply the Ludwigshafen chemical site with green electricity from 2030.

This means that Virgin Galactic’s commercial manned program for the public has taken another step forward. The company expects to officially provide commercial space travel services in 2022. Figure | Virgin Galactic’s “Spaceship Two” “VSS Unity” (Source: Virgin Galactic) The mission was “Spaceship II” and “VSS Unity” (“Unity”), which was mounted by the “White Knight II” aircraft from New Mexico at 10:34, May 22, Eastern Time. After Spaceport America took off and separated from its mothership VMS Eve, the rocket pushed the “Unity” to continue to lift off. When the flight speed reached three times the speed of sound, the rocket would shut off its engine and the spacecraft would climb by inertia and finally reached 55.45 At an altitude of mile (about 89.2 kilometers), a backflip was completed at the edge of space. After that, the “Unity” glided through the atmosphere, returned to the ground, and landed at the departing spaceport at 11:43. The two pilots on board were Dave Mackay and CJ. CJ Sturckow, the two had previously completed space missions. The flight test was originally scheduled to take place in December last year, but the flight was forced to be suspended due to computer failure due to electromagnetic interference. The flight test was postponed to February this year, but it was postponed again due to technical reasons. After several months of rectification, after solving a hidden maintenance hazard of the “White Knight II” carrier aircraft, Blue Origin confirmed the date of the test flight on May 20 this year. Kolgrazier said that Virgin Galactic has found a good solution to suppress electromagnetic interference this time, and the company deliberately checked this before the test flight. Sir Richard Branson, the founder of Virgin Galactic, came to watch the spaceport in person. He was accompanied by former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson and current Governor Lu Yang Gleason ( Lujan Grisham), Bill Richardson helped to establish the US spaceport. Chairman Chamath Palihapitiya did not come to the scene, but he congratulated him in a statement: “Congratulations to the entire Virgin Galactic team, they once again crossed an important milestone. After the successful completion of the flight test, Virgin Galactic’s stock price soared 22%. Figure | Richard Branson cheered and celebrated after the “Unity” was safely lifted off (Source: Twitter) Virgin Galactic CEO Michael Colglazier said: “This is a flawless flight.” “Today’s flight demonstrates the inherent elegance and safety of our space flight system, and at the same time makes the manned space flight of Virgin Galactic and New Mexico a big step forward,” he said. This is not the first time Virgin Galactic has been in space. In 2018, Unity rose to an altitude of 82.7 kilometers, marking Virgin Galactic’s first entry into space. In February 2019, “Spacecraft II” flew to space again. However, according to the Washington Post, the flight in 2019 had serious safety hazards. The wings of the space plane were disbanded during the flight, and the lives of the three crew members were threatened. Fortunately, no one was injured in the end, so this test was considered a success. As early as 2014, Virgin Galactic suffered a test flight accident. At that time, the “Spaceship Two” exploded during the process of leaving the mother ship and preparing to continue to lift off. The entire spacecraft broke in half and fell quickly and crashed into the California desert. The accident resulted in the injury of one pilot and the death of another pilot. Figure | Virgin Galactic’s “Spaceship Two” “VSS Unity” (Source: Virgin Galactic) It is also reported that Virgin Galactic is expected to obtain a license from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) before the end of this year to officially provide commercial passenger services in 2022. The company focused on collecting various performance and flight data during this flight, and plans to submit it to the Federal Aviation Administration. Kolgrazier said that the data collected this time “looks very critical” and said “we expect them to review the data.” “Unity” also carried three scientific research payloads sponsored by NASA in this mission. Kolgrazier revealed that these payloads have brought revenue to the company, and the specific amount will be disclosed in the second quarter earnings report. Figure | Virgin Galactic’s “Spaceship Two” “VSS Unity” (Source: Virgin Galactic) Virgin Galactic has a total of 4 space flight plans this year. Although it did not disclose the specific dates for the next three, the company said it expects to be completed before this fall. Virgin Galactic’s “Spacecraft II” can accommodate up to six passengers and two pilots. In the second flight afterwards, “Spaceship II” will also carry 4 passengers to test the spacecraft cabin and flight procedures to be followed by future customers; for the third time, the company’s founder Richard Brand Sir Mori “sent to space”; for the fourth time, it will provide a commercial flight service for the Italian Air Force, which will carry some scientific research payloads and several Italian experts. This will also be the first commercial flight of Virgin Galactic, which is expected to generate US$2 million. Revenue. The company has set a price of US$250,000 for its “ship tickets.” It is reported that Virgin Galactic has received more than 600 orders, with a total deposit of US$80 million. In addition to Virgin Galactic, Blue Origin, a rocket company founded by billionaire Jeff Bezos, is also working on the commercialization of space travel. Blue Origin is now auctioning a spaceship seat in its first manned flight on July 20 this year on its official website, and the price of the seat has been priced at 2.8 million U.S. dollars. -End- reference: https://virginorbit.com/ https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-57214988

But in fact, there are many hidden in our country’s long coastline. A small seaside city , Amazing but always low-key—— Zhuhai Is one of them!

Not long ago, the ninth season of “Running Brothers” was launched. A group of stars such as baby, Li Chen, Zheng Kai, and Cai Xukun gathered in Zhuhai. Hengqin·Macao Youth Entrepreneurship Valley, Zhuhai International Convention and Exhibition Center and many other city landmarks.

Many people sighed while studying variety shows: It turns out that Mimi has hidden so many fun places in Zhuhai? ? It has completely overturned the impression of “tourism desert” in the minds of many people.

Don’t say, if you want to come in summer, find a place in the country to have both City & Island Holiday Double happiness, Zhuhai is definitely the best choice.

Obviously it is a city full of technological sense, but it has hundreds of islands. It is not as romantic as Sanya, but there are far fewer people. It is very suitable for avoiding crowds.

The coastline is more than 600 kilometers long, and the vast sea area is dotted with large and small islands. Whether you like niche arts or primitive fishing villages, you can find a suitable resort here.

In 2014, Great Wall Motor said it “temporarily abandoned” its car business. At that time, competition in the car market was extremely fierce. Faced with the continuous downward pressure of joint ventures, the market dividends that independent brands could receive were limited. In order to focus resources on advantageous sectors, Great Wall Motor resolutely chose to temporarily abandon its car business. A few days ago, Li Ruifeng, vice president of Great Wall Motors and general manager of the WEY brand, revealed that Great Wall Motors has restarted the sedan project. The first sedan will be placed under the WEY brand and is scheduled to be released in May this year. First of all, regardless of whether Great Wall Motor’s decision to plunge into the embrace of SUVs was right or wrong, Great Wall Motors now only relies on SUV products. Although not the first, it has indeed been firmly among the top three domestic car companies. This coincides with the critical period when the tank brand is separated from the Wey brand. WEY needs more business support and only relies on high-end urban SUVs. The product line is still slightly monotonous. Diversification will be the way out for the WEY brand to grow. And choosing to enter the car field this year, Great Wall Motors is obviously well prepared. In 2020, the Great Wall lemon, tank, and coffee platforms will be officially released. With the support of intelligent and modular platforms, it will be able to quickly launch a variety of new models to achieve product empowerment, technology empowerment, and rapid coverage of more categories. This is undoubtedly the confidence that Great Wall Motor chose to enter the car market at this time. No company is willing to give up the car production line that is close to hand after working hard to develop a modular architecture, not to mention that the market has been suffering from the absence of cars in the Great Wall for a long time. According to the investment project of Great Wall Taizhou Branch, Great Wall will establish complete vehicle manufacturing and chassis manufacturing projects in Taizhou’s factory. The main models put into production are two sedans, a compact car and a medium-sized car. All models are new energy vehicles and will be driven by pure electric power. In addition, in addition to the gradual maturity of core technologies, Great Wall Motor’s factory layout and dealer layout have matured, and the road for the production of cars has been paved. Let’s look at the domestic car market. Let alone joint venture cars, among the independent brands, Geely Emgrand and Changan Yidong have performed well in the domestic car market. Geely Auto’s Emgrand sales have surpassed 3 million in 2020, with an average monthly sales of more than 10,000; Changan Auto’s sales have remained high since the launch of the Yidong PLUS model, and Changan Yidong surpassed Emgrand in February and March. First place for autonomous cars. Great Wall Motors has entered the sedan project at this time, and has made B-class cars a key model. The opportunity for WEY is obviously great. (Fictional picture of netizens) Only relying on SUV models can be the leading auto company of independent brands. Now that the sedan project is restarted, sales growth is one aspect. Once “abandoning” has achieved Great Wall Motor’s SUV dominance, but now it is regaining the “old dream” of cars, which is even more exciting. What do you think of the upcoming B-class sedan of the WEY brand? Welcome to leave a message below and discuss with us!

Floating houses are no longer a strange idea to residents living in rivers, lakes and swamps, but their designs are quite simple and not as diverse as modern ground-floor models. However, Suzanne Stefan’s 2021 Housing Award-winning project from the American Institute of Architects (AIA) offers a new perspective for those who prefer floating homes. Stefan designed a floating house on a floating foundation made in the 1990s that is close to the beach and has access to a garden near Portage Bay. The house consists of a single floor with a total area of ​​60 square meters. The exterior walls are clad in dark cedar and Richlite, a synthetic material made from plastic blotting paper. The house uses sliding doors to save space. The inside of the house is divided into two zones. One side consists of the common spaces – open kitchen and dining area, separated from the living room by retractable fabric curtains. The rest of the house has two wood-paneled bedrooms and a bathroom. The designer used glass doors in all rooms except the bathroom to create a sense of open space for the house. The floor is made of whitewashed oak and pine. In the kitchen, stainless steel was used for the countertop and backsplash. The house has 3 skylights, allowing natural light to comfortably enter the house.

However, such a small town has been ranked as the richest town in the United States for many years, and its wealth will definitely refresh your new understanding.

Although it is more than 40 minutes away from the city center, it is only a dozen minutes away from the world’s most influential headquarters of Google, Tesla, and Facebook.

However, the people who live in suburban towns are not employees of these high-tech groups, but a large group of presidents.

More than a hundred years ago, Atherton was originally the most common agricultural town in the southern suburbs of San Francisco.

Later, with the rapid development of San Francisco, Silicon Valley gave birth to many high-tech companies that affected the world. Atherton, far away from the city center, had a quiet life and became a place where many CEOs bought real estate.

In just a few decades, Atherton’s housing prices soared like a rocket.

The most common house today is as high as 7 million U.S. dollars, and some large-scale luxury houses require more than 30 million U.S. dollars.

If it is some well-built manor, the price of more than 100 million US dollars is not surprising.

The reason why it is loved by these wealthy people is that Atherton is not far or near in distance, it can avoid the hustle and bustle of the city center, it can also provide a certain degree of privacy for the wealthy, and it can also facilitate work.

In addition, it is also a small town with investment value.

Over the past ten years, Atherton’s housing prices have risen by a minimum of about three times. If it was purchased 10 years ago, the price of a villa today is comparable to a huge windfall.

Of course, for those listed CEOs, Atherton’s real estate is just one year’s income. Living in Atherton is more of an identity in the circle.

Imagine that your neighbor is either the CEO or the chairman of a world-class company. This kind of high-level social interaction is itself a resource.

Children in public elementary schools are still descendants of high elites. In such an elite-to-elite atmosphere, the descendants educated by them will not be bad.

For example, there is an equestrian club in the town, and its membership costs hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.

In daily life, rich people can take their families to ride horses, and horse races and other activities are held every year.

But most of the time, its existence is dedicated to the social services of the rich.

In fact, Atherton’s package is not perfect.

When we buy a house, we will consider supermarkets, commercial districts, subways, hospitals, parks, schools and other facilities. But except for a park and three public elementary schools, Atherton’s daily life is not convenient.

For example, if you have to drive to the city center for shopping, you have to drive more than ten minutes to a big town for meals.

Of course, the lives that we ordinary people consider are trivial matters to the rich, and naturally someone will handle such trivial matters.

For the residents of Atherton, being clean and undisturbed is what people want.

In Atherton during the day, people are often not visible on the sidewalk.

The manor houses and villas of every house are tightly fenced to avoid being snooped by strangers.

The exquisite and luxurious mansions are like small worlds. People do not disturb each other. This is the life circle of the rich.

There are about 7,000 residents living in Atherton.

Except for the aboriginals, all those luxury houses were purchased by the rich in Silicon Valley, so Atherton was also dubbed the CEO town by outsiders.

Here, meeting a CEO with tens of millions of dollars in assets is not unusual.

The gathering of the rich has made Atherton’s per capita income far ahead every year.

According to the latest calculations, Atherton’s family has an average annual income of more than 520,000 U.S. dollars, and an annual income of 500,000 U.S. dollars (approximately RMB 3.4 million) is still the “poor” at the bottom of the town.

And this is still an average. What is the annual income of those top families?

“At this time, in addition to the fresh lotus seeds in Hue, which are in season, the ponds and lotus ponds in the countryside also begin to harvest seeds. If fresh lotus seeds in Hue cost 170,000-190,000 VND/kg, the original lotus seeds cost only 100,000-120,000 VND/kg. The lotus seeds from the countryside are as fragrant and fragrant as the Hue lotus seeds,” said Tran Thi Hanh, a small trader selling fresh lotus seeds at Vo market, Ha Dong. Because it is the fresh lotus seed at the beginning of the season, it is sold during the epidemic season, so this year, the price of fresh lotus seeds at the toad markets is quite soft, attracting many housewives to order. “At the beginning of the season, the price of fresh lotus seeds is still high. A little more lotus at the end of the tool, the price of lotus seeds will decrease to 80,000-90,000 VND/kg. That’s why many housewives buy fresh seeds from the countryside to make lotus tea, nut milk or leave sticky rice, cook tea to cool down,” said Hanh. Because many people like to eat, fresh lotus seeds at the beginning of the season are quite popular. Buyers buy at least 1kg, many buy 5-7kg and put them in the refrigerator to eat gradually. According to Ms. Hanh, there are many ways to preserve lotus seeds to eat year-round and still be delicious, but you can follow these 4 ways to store lotus seeds until the next season. Dried lotus seeds Hanh said, there is a simple way to store fresh lotus seeds to eat all year round, which is fresh lotus seeds that do not need to be washed after being purchased. Just peel off the shell, get the white lotus seed kernel. Use a toothpick to take the lotus heart. “Next, bring the lotus seeds to dry in the sun 3-5 times (or dry) until dry, then store them in a jar with a tight lid. From time to time, during use, you can bring lotus seeds to dry in the sun to avoid mold, “Ms. Hanh said. Frozen fresh lotus seeds When buying fresh lotus seeds, the housewife does not wash but peels off the seed shell, takes the white lotus seed kernel and uses a toothpick to get the lotus heart. After that, divide the purchased lotus seeds into small pieces, store them in plastic boxes, plastic bags or put them in vacuum bags and then put them in the freezer for later use. The easiest way is to freeze fresh lotus seeds in the freezer compartment As for the refrigerator, it can only be for about 10 days when the lotus begins to darken. Every time you take out the lotus seeds to use, take each box or bag, gradually defrost and cover with boiling water. Then cook normally. Lotus seeds are still pure white even when stored in the freezer. Steam fresh lotus seeds and put them in the freezer There is another way to preserve fresh lotus seeds that many housewives have recently suggested is to steam them and then freeze them to eat gradually. “Many housewives who buy their own lotus seeds think that if fresh lotus seeds are stored in the refrigerator for a few days, they will become dull, and the seeds will decrease in sweetness. As for fresh, but frozen, sometimes it is still mixed with rough seeds, not delicious. But if steamed, it’s 100% fleshy, white, fragrant, not dull, very convenient because when you need to eat tea, it cooks very quickly,” this person shared. Specifically, prepare a pot of water and steam the lotus seeds above, until the lotus is ripe. Do not stir while the lotus is still hot to avoid crushing the seeds. Wait for the lotus seeds to cool completely, then put them in a freezer box. This way can be stored for several months to a year. When you need to cook lotus leaf rice, lotus seed tea, longan tea, … just cook other ingredients and then add lotus and it will still be soft, fleshy, and fragrant like fresh lotus. More sophisticated, you can steam lotus seeds before freezing Soak in dilute salt water, then quickly bare and freeze According to Ms. Hanh, there is a way to store fresh lotus seeds to eat all year round, which is applied by many people, which is to buy fresh lotus seeds and wash them twice. Then, soak in diluted salt water for 10 minutes, then take out and wash again. Bring the water to a boil, add a teaspoon of salt. Then put the lotus seeds in the ceiling for 3 minutes. Keep a basin of very cold ice water ready to take out the lotus, then put it in a bowl of ice water to soak for 10 minutes. At this time, remove the lotus seeds to a basket to freeze. Doing this, the whole year in the lotus seed cabinet does not darken. When cooked, it still has a fragrant lotus scent. The lotus seller affirms that preserving fresh lotus seeds by the above methods can keep lotuses all year round. There are opinions reflecting that fresh lotus seeds are frozen to freeze, but according to Ms. Hanh, whether or not the lotus is shy is due to the lotus variety and lotus soil, not the way it is preserved. “Even if the fresh lotus is frozen in the freezer, it’s okay, boiled it is still beautiful and delicious like a fresh lotus,” she shared. In addition, Ms. Hanh also noted, when buying fresh lotus seeds to store food all year round, housewives should buy old, round lotus seeds, do not choose long, cracked seeds. These lotus seeds are usually delicious, not shy, fragrant, very sweet and chewy.
