  Recently, chemical parks in Yancheng, Lianyungang and other places in Jiangsu Province have exposed environmental pollution problems one after another, which has aroused widespread concern in society. A reporter from the Economic Information Daily recently visited a number of Lingang Chemical Industry Zones in Jiangsu Province and found that although the ecological environment has improved, the surrounding ecological environment is still fragile due to too many ecological debts. The leading group of joint investigation in Jiangsu province and city found that some enterprises even dug 30 meters to secretly bury underground pipes to discharge pollutants, causing ecological and environmental problems such as water source and soil. Experts called for an iron fist for future governance, and it is urgent to jump out of the cycle of "remediation as soon as a problem occurs, and remediation after another problem".

  Scene: disturbing smell

  Recently, reporters from the Economic Information Daily have visited Binhai, Funing Aoyang, Xiangshui Chemical Industry Park in Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province and Duigou Chemical Industry Park in guannan county City, Lianyungang City. They can smell the smell of chemicals several kilometers away, and the smell of apples and rotten eggs comes into their noses from time to time.

  "Especially in rainy days and at night, the smell of chemical plants is so strong that sometimes doors and windows can be smelled when they are closed." Some people around Funing Aoyang Chemical Industry Park reflected. "Even if most chemical enterprises are shut down, the smell of overhaul is still unbearable, which shows that the whole process control level was not in place when the chemical enterprises were built." A staff member in charge of environmental protection of Funing High-tech Zone Management Committee said.

  Besides air, the problem of water is also worrying. The reporter found that around the Lingang Industrial Zone in Guanyun County, Jiangsu Province, the pond water and beach separated from the sea by a dike are colorful; In Funing Aoyang Industrial Park, a sewage ditch in front of pesticide plant, the smell of chemicals is pungent and disgusting.

  The reporter of Economic Information Daily went deep into Jiangsu Shengshi Chemical Co., Ltd. in Lingang Industrial Zone of Guanyun County, Jiangsu Province, and found that although the company had stopped production and there was no one in the factory, it still smelled pungent. The iron big warehouse in the factory area is rusty. The reporter saw through the crack that there are still bags of things in it. The soil near the iron warehouse is slightly green, and there are many sewage with unknown composition and black color in the pool behind the factory area.

  The reporter then went to Sanbaigong Village, which is just across the river from the Lingang Industrial Zone in Guanyun County.

  Jiang Shunyou, a 56-year-old villager, told the reporter that in the past, as long as it was windy, the smell of the surrounding chemical plants would float to the village, which was more pungent. At that time, as soon as they entered the city, others could smell their peculiar smell. Villager Zhuang Guimei reported that the air in the village was very poor in the past, especially at night, and he was afraid to open the window. Moreover, the wind direction is different, and the smell of chemicals blown is also different. However, "in recent years, many chemical plants around have been closed, and the smell is much smaller."

  Jiang Yufeng and other villagers told reporters that from 2011 to 2016, chemical plants started to discharge more pollutants, and the smell was more serious. In foggy days and rainy days, some chemicals would land on farmland, crops would not grow, and grain output was relatively low. In the past two years, the air quality has improved a lot and the crops are growing well.

  At the dock of Yanwei Port adjacent to the port industrial zone, the reporter saw that there were similar oily suspended substances flowing on the sea surface, and some construction waste and waste steel were scattered near the port, which was rather messy. Shan Lianye, a 54-year-old fisherman, told reporters that the pollution in the port was serious more than two years ago, and sometimes a blood-red pollution zone could be seen on the water surface. The fish and shrimp caught in those years also had an odor and dared not eat it. In the last two years, the surrounding chemical plants have been shut down a lot, and the environment has improved a little.

  Investigation: thrilling stealing

  In order to thoroughly investigate the environmental pollution problems of three chemical industrial parks in Guanhekou, Jiangsu established a provincial and municipal joint investigation leading group, which consists of a comprehensive coordination group and three special investigation teams, including environmental violations, planning and layout, elimination of backward production capacity, and performance supervision, to carry out special investigations. Since the end of April, all special investigation teams have been stationed in Guanyun, Guannan and Xiangshui chemical parks to formulate investigation plans.

  With regard to the problem of gas odor, the environmental protection departments of cities and counties in Jiangsu Province jointly inspected 41 chemical enterprises in the "Liangguan" Chemical Park one by one, and promptly put on record and investigated the suspected environmental violations of 12 enterprises including Tengyu Chemical in Guanyun County and Vigris Chemical in guannan county. Lianyungang Environmental Protection Department deployed the city’s environmental law enforcement forces, and divided them into six groups to carry out a "carpet" environmental inspection of enterprises in Guanyun County and guannan county Chemical Industry Park. At present, 8 enterprises have been inspected, and 6 suspected environmental violations of 5 enterprises are being investigated and handled. After preliminary investigation, the following problems are mainly found:

  First, the problem of stealing buried pipes still exists. For the problem of concealed pipes, the governments of Guanyun County and guannan county called more than 20 excavators and pipe jacking detection devices to investigate around the clock. After investigation, a concealed pipe was found 3 kilometers near the estuary of Yihe River in Guanyun County. After the reverse tracking of the pipe and the sampling analysis of water samples and nearby soil, Lianyungang Yongrun Chemical Co., Ltd. was locked up. At present, the public security department has taken control measures against three responsible persons of the enterprise, and the county government has also ordered the enterprise to close down.

  "After we found the concealed pipe, we tracked it all the way to the sewage pool of Yongrun Chemical Co., Ltd., which is 3 kilometers away. The whole concealed pipe was U-shaped, with the deepest point of 30 meters and the caliber of 110 mm." A staff member of Lingang Branch of Guanyun County Environmental Supervision Bureau introduced.

  Second, there are still multiple problems in drinking well water, farmland water and pond water. Xu Yong, an accountant in Sanbaigong Village, told the reporter that before the tap water was connected to the village in November 2017, the villagers relied on two deep wells for drinking water. The water quality analysis results of Lianyungang Environmental Monitoring Center Station on April 19th showed that the ammonia nitrogen index of one of the wells in the village was slightly higher than the standard. Zhuang Guimei, who runs a supermarket in the village, told reporters that although the well water in the village can be drunk, some villagers did not dare to drink it because they were worried about the pollution of the well water.

  The reporter’s investigation also found that in the cement sewer of Sanbaigong Village, the sewage was mixed with garbage, with a black color and a foul smell, which needed to be rectified urgently. Some ditches in farmland are mostly stagnant water, which is not connected with each other. The water surface is yellow and black, and some pesticide packages and bottle caps are scattered along the ditches. Lianyungang environmental protection department also sampled and tested two farmland ditches in Sanbaigong Village, and the permanganate index was high. The permanganate index of the water sample in the north-south junction ditch between Sanbaigong Village and Yannan Farm is as high as 19.6, which far exceeds the environmental quality standard of Class V surface water.

  Third, soil pollution in some areas is worrying. In a farmland in Sanbaigong Village, the reporter found that the surrounding crops are growing well, and only one inch of grass is barren in the middle, which is very strange. The local village cadres explained that crops could not grow because of the low-lying saline-alkali land, but the reporter found that the surrounding areas where crops grew were almost the same terrain, which was difficult to establish. At present, the local environmental protection department has sampled and analyzed the soil there.

  Action: Strict law enforcement.

  In view of the serious damage to the ecological environment in Binhai County, Dafeng District, Xiangshui County of Yancheng City, Guanyun County of Lianyungang City, guannan county City and Dainan Town of xinghua city, in late April, Jiangsu Provincial Environmental Protection Department successively implemented a six-month regional approval restriction for the above six areas. During the period, the examination and approval of environmental impact assessment documents of all construction projects except environmental protection infrastructure projects and people’s livelihood projects will be suspended.

  Aiming at the areas along the Yangtze River where chemical enterprises are also highly concentrated, Jiangsu Province has launched a special campaign of joint enforcement of environmental protection in eight cities along the Yangtze River, which combines cross-checking with provincial supervision.

  The one-month joint law enforcement campaign mainly targeted at stationary pollution sources in Nanjing, Wuxi, Changzhou, Suzhou, Nantong, Yangzhou, Zhenjiang, Taizhou and counties (cities, districts) under its jurisdiction, focusing on key parks and enterprises in eight cities along the Yangtze River with strong public reaction, prominent media attention, serious pollution discharge and lagging progress in remediation. The inspection team is composed of the environmental protection departments and public security organs of eight cities along the Yangtze River who are responsible for selecting the business backbones in their respective jurisdictions.

  Chen Zhipeng, member of the party group and deputy director of Jiangsu Provincial Environmental Protection Department, bluntly said that the areas along the Yangtze River in Jiangsu are densely populated and densely populated, and the resources and environment have been in a tight state. "About two-thirds of the province’s heavy chemical production capacity is concentrated along the banks of the Yangtze River, and the total wastewater discharge of the eight cities along the Yangtze River accounts for 74% of the province. Although law enforcement has been continuously strengthened in recent years and environmental crimes have been severely cracked down, illegal cases are still high. "

  "Since last year, the province’s public security organs have investigated and dealt with 534 criminal cases of environmental pollution, including more than 400 cases in 8 cities along the Yangtze River, accounting for more than 70%, showing new characteristics such as more concealed crime methods, more complicated crime chains and more prominent cross-regional crimes." Shang Jianrong, deputy secretary and deputy director of the Party Committee of Jiangsu Provincial Public Security Department, said that this joint law enforcement special action will combine end-to-end attack with front-end governance, macro-judgment with case analysis, and crack down on pollution crimes in the whole chain and all links, so as to clear the source, break the chain and remove the roots.

  According to the information released by Jiangsu Provincial Environmental Protection Department recently, all inspection teams have been put in place and a number of environmental pollution problems have been discovered one after another. Among them, the sixth inspection team composed of Nantong environmental monitoring and public security personnel found that a stainless steel production enterprise in Zhangjiagang City had a concealed pipe leading directly to the river, and the end of the concealed pipe was connected with the storage tank of blackening process washing wastewater (hazardous solid waste). At the same time, similar waste liquid was dumped in the farmland behind the factory. Subsequently, the local police intervened in advance, and after locking the evidence, they will quickly file a case for investigation according to the law.

  During the on-site inspection of a hot dip galvanizing plant in Yangzhou, Nanjing Group found that the farmland soil on the west side of the plant was strongly acidic, which was consistent with the acidity of the waste liquid in the waste liquid barrel in the plant, and it was suspected of stealing waste liquid. The monitoring personnel further compared and analyzed the soil and waste liquid samples. The inspectors also found that the company’s acid mist tower was strongly acidic and did not add lye for absorption, which was suspected that the facility was not operating normally.

  "The purpose of the special action is very clear, that is, to attack the environmental problems that have been strongly reflected by the masses and have not been solved for a long time, to break down regional protection, to prevent human law enforcement and pollution, to crack down on environmental violations, to safeguard the interests of the masses, and to protect the ecological security of the Yangtze River." Ding Nianlong, head of Nantong Group, said. (Reporter Lu Huadong and Qin Huajiang)

Is it shuffling or dying behind the closure of the first unmanned retail store in many places?

  Unmanned retail, which was once popular with capital, kept coming out with news of closure. Some traditional stores have begun to use technology to enhance the consumer experience. The trend of the integration of new technology and retail is irreversible, but the digital transformation of retail should return to retail itself and pay attention to convenience and quality products.

  At 11: 30 on December 27, 2019, a milk tea shop on the first floor of Zhonghai Plaza in Guanghua East, Chaoyang District, Beijing lined up, but an unmanned supermarket diagonally opposite was relatively deserted. At this time, it was originally the prime time for white-collar workers to eat and shop. In 20 minutes, only four people entered the supermarket to shop.

  Unattended, "code" to go, big data to predict consumption habits, intelligent anti-theft identification system … … Many unmanned retailers blessed by new technologies debuted in 2017. Now, two years later, as the new favorite of the retail industry, the impression of unmanned retail to the outside world is still more at the technical level. Recently, news of the closure has been constantly coming out.

  What is the current situation of this former tuyere industry, is it really unattended? Is it shuffling or dying behind the collapse? Where will the future go? The Workers’ Daily reporter investigated this.

  The first unmanned retail store in many places closed down.

  The unmanned supermarket located in Donghe Road, Xinqi, Ningbo, was the first unmanned supermarket in Beilun District. After seven months of operation, it closed at the end of November last year. Not only that, the first unmanned retail stores in Wuxi and Jinan also announced their closure.

  The closure of the first unmanned retail store in many places has made the unmanned retail scenery with capital and technology in 2017 no longer.

  In 2017, it was called "the first year of unmanned retail" by the industry. Unmanned shelves were placed on the streets of many cities overnight, and many unmanned supermarkets also opened their doors. However, the good times did not last long. In 2017, the first unmanned convenience store in Shanghai, Binguo Box, was closed. In February 2018, GOGO Xiaochao, an unmanned shelf project in Chengdu, was exposed and stopped. In April last year, Astor, an unmanned retail store in Xinhepu Road, Guangzhou, suddenly closed … … A large number of unmanned retailers have fallen.

  According to media surveys, some unmanned supermarkets have even been directly changed into normal supermarkets, including many unmanned supermarkets under well-known e-commerce platforms.

  No one is very fresh, convenience is more important.

  With regard to the closure of unmanned retail stores, some insiders pointed out that consumers are more concerned about the comprehensive consumption experience than the automation of retail stores and the "sense of technology" in the shopping process. Compared with ordinary convenience stores, the current unmanned retail stores only have fewer clerks, and other aspects have not changed much. The core of unmanned retail should not be unmanned, but convenience and products.

  On the evening of December 30, 2019, the reporter saw in an unmanned shelf outside a residential area in dingfuzhuang, Chaoyang District, Beijing that the yogurt sold on this shelf was more expensive than that of a nearby convenience store. "It’s hard to make people want to shop." A passerby said.

  In addition, the technical problems of unmanned retail stores themselves sometimes bring consumers a bad consumption experience. The owner of the first unmanned retail store in Ningbo said that once the system delayed the update time, at 3 am, the machine didn’t respond, trapping consumers in the store.

  In this regard, Xia Liu, an associate professor in the Marketing Department of Shandong University of Finance and Economics, said that unmanned retailing now has many problems and disadvantages. Although the labor cost is reduced, it will inevitably bring about an increase in operating costs. Moreover, in terms of loss of goods and technology, it has not been well solved.

  In the eyes of some insiders, unmanned retail seems to have a certain cost advantage in terms of rent and labor, but from the actual situation, the overall operating cost is very high. The automatic identification equipment of goods in unmanned supermarkets and the operating system established by using artificial intelligence and big data require high investment in the early stage, and the maintenance cost in the later stage is not small.

  The ebb tide of capital has dealt a fatal blow to unmanned retail. A venture capitalist said that investors gradually found that blind expansion of unmanned retail projects could not achieve a balance between scene fit, replenishment cost and user fit, and large-scale financing was difficult to sustain. Capital is gradually returning to rationality, and it is no longer foolish to invest money.

  Many supermarkets and stores realize self-checkout

  While the unmanned retail industry has closed down, some new unmanned retail stores are opening. New stores have opened in Hangzhou, Chuzhou and Lu ‘an.

  In addition to completely unmanned retail stores, some traditional stores have also begun to use technology to enhance the consumer experience. Reporters visited stores such as CR Vanguard and Decathlon Sports Supermarket and found that self-checkout has gradually become the standard of these supermarkets. Cashiers in these supermarkets all said that they are happy to help consumers understand and try to use self-checkout

  "If there is a long checkout line, self-checkout is still very convenient." A consumer shopping in a Decathlon sports supermarket in Chaoyang District, Beijing said. The reporter saw that consumers put the purchased goods into a shopping basket, and the product details and prices can be automatically displayed on the screen, and consumers can pay by scanning the code.

  In this regard, some commentators pointed out that nowadays, the trend of new technology and retail integration is irreversible, and the life with more and more sense of science and technology is destined to accelerate. Unmanned supermarkets and unmanned shelves still have broad room for development.

  According to the data of a consulting company, the market size of unmanned convenience stores in China reached 1.1 billion yuan in 2018 and is expected to reach 3.3 billion yuan in 2020.

  Tang Jun, co-executive president of Shenzhen Internet of Things Intelligent Technology Application Association, wrote that unmanned convenience stores only blew the horn of digital transformation of traditional convenience stores. Only those who return retail to retail, return to the essence of retail and provide earth-shaking changes for retail efficiency and benefit can become the king of retail in the future.

China Wushu’s bid for the Olympic Games

    At the end of 2006, after several efforts, the International Olympic Committee finally agreed to hold martial arts competitions during the Beijing Olympic Games. This special care given by the International Olympic Committee has never been seen before.


    It is an unwritten tradition for the host country to use the power of the host country to incorporate its traditional projects into the Olympic Games. In 1960, judo was selected for the Olympic Games in Tokyo. In 1988, Taekwondo appeared in Seoul as a performance event, and finally became a formal event in 2000.


    The success of Beijing’s bid for the Olympic Games in 2001 made many people see the dawn of Wushu entering the Olympic Games. Soon, the International Wushu Federation formally put forward to the International Olympic Committee the idea that Wushu should be included in the Olympic Games. For this purpose, the State General Administration of Sport has set up a "Wushu Leading Group for Entering the Olympic Games".


    However, in August 2002, the working meeting of the Olympic Committee in Lausanne, Switzerland, rejected the proposal to include Wushu in the official Olympic events. According to Wang Xiaolin, the chairman of China Wushu Association, since the rule that the host set up a major event was abolished in 1996, Rogge has implemented the "slimming plan" since he took office, all of which have made the road of Wushu difficult. After 1988, the Olympic Games has cancelled performance events, which closed another door to the Olympic Games.


    This sudden blow stunned Chinese Olympic Committee officials. The General Administration immediately ordered the working group to start emergency public relations work immediately.


    In order to let IOC members know more about Wushu, the leading group has adopted a series of strong public relations. For example, during the meeting of the IOC Executive Committee, China organized a "Wushu Olympic Bid Group" with 56 members to Kuala Lumpur and hosted a banquet for the IOC Executive Committee and related personnel in the name of BOCOG. During the banquet, a martial arts performance was performed for about 30 minutes.


    On the other hand, China keeps inviting IOC members to China to watch Wushu competitions. On August 9th this year, Rogge also went to Shaolin Temple to watch the martial arts performance of China national team.


    After a lot of hard work and "at all costs", the International Olympic Committee no longer insisted on abolishing Wushu, and transferred the right to decide whether Wushu could be shortlisted for the Olympic Games to the Council of the Asian Olympic Committee. Only in this way can Wushu regain its vitality when it enters the Olympic Games.

Bo Huang’s film revolution: embracing change and taking root in the combination of life and innovation.

Recently, in an exclusive interview, Bo Huang profoundly pointed out that in the face of the great changes in China’s film market, only by embracing the changes can we find a foothold in the new opportunities. His thinking is not only related to personal creative development, but also reflects the fundamental problem that the whole industry needs to pay attention to during the transformation: how to closely connect with the people and inspire new value.

Bo Huang’s road to performing arts is full of persistence and exploration. From a small role to an actor with box office appeal, Bo Huang has always insisted on taking root in people’s lives. He emphasized that the audience’s love for him comes from their true feelings about life, not just numbers and box office. In today’s era of more and more attention to data, he believes that numbers do not represent the authenticity of creation, but may mislead creation.

For example, the "HB+U" new director assistance plan initiated by him is precisely to convey a spirit of courage to explore to the market. The plan shares the experience and resources accumulated by Bo Huang for many years with young creators, and supports their innovations in scripts and announcements. This kind of support not only pays attention to the box office, but also pays attention to the depth of innovation and art. In his recent works, from Enthusiasm to Across the Furious Sea, he constantly explores more possibilities with different roles, showing a fearless pursuit of performance.

Regarding the background of China’s film development, Bo Huang said that in the past ten years, the technology and creative means of China’s films have developed by leaps and bounds. When he recalled the difficult shooting conditions when he participated in the film Bullfighting, he can feel the rapid progress of the industry by comparing advanced shooting equipment and more professional technical team. He mentioned that the training of young actors by the "Feng Shen" crew showed the importance of actors’ performance and the pursuit of artistic quality, which made him feel the confidence and hope of the industry.

Of course, there are also challenges behind the change. Bo Huang mentioned that with the progress of science and technology, the rise of new technologies and platforms, and the change of viewing habits, the film industry is facing great challenges. The introduction of artificial intelligence technology may change many traditional links in the future, which indicates the endless possibilities of the industry in the future. Facing such a future, Bo Huang firmly believes that the initial intention of creation should not be forgotten, and the lasting way is to take root in the people’s values. He deeply understands that the vitality of movies comes from life, and the audience’s resonance is based on real reflection.

To sum up, Bo Huang is undoubtedly an innovative actor. In the ever-changing era, he told us with practical actions that embracing change is not contradictory to adhering to the original heart, but the wings that push art forward. Whether it is the exploration of personal development or the deep reflection on the whole industry, his series of practices are worth studying by every practitioner. In the days to come, Bo Huang will continue on the road of creation and explore more possibilities of her own.

Bo Huang is not only an actor, but also a thinker and innovator. With his rich experience and persistent exploration spirit, he showed us how to seize the opportunity and grasp the future in the complicated market environment. Let’s look forward to how he will continue to open up a broader sky for the future of China films.

The 79th China Educational Equipment Exhibition opened, and Programming Cat released an open ecosystem for programming education

  

  On April 24th, at the 79th China Education Equipment Exhibition, the leading brand of programming cat in the children’s programming industry launched the open ecology of programming education, opening the two ecosystems of tools and content for the whole industry, empowering the industry in an all-round way, and promoting the popularization of domestic programming education.

  So far, Programming Cat has served more than 21,000 schools across the country and has nearly 600 offline cooperation centers, covering 34 provincial-level administrative regions and 343 prefecture-level cities in China.

  Li Tianchi, founder and CEO of Programming Cat, said that Programming Cat has accumulated profound technical and content strength in the field of programming education in the past. We hope that through open cooperation and co-creation, we can help more users, public schools, and social institutions better develop programming education based on these achievements of Programming Cat, work together to build a programming education ecosystem, and better improve the scientific and technological literacy of the next generation.

  "Programming Tools + Content" Open ecological double helix, deeply empowering the industry in all directions

  The open ecosystem of Programming Cat Education includes two major ecosystems of tools and content, helping users and partners to use Programming Cat’s tools and content more conveniently and efficiently; at the same time, it is necessary to join hands with multiple parties to create and build an open ecosystem.

   

  

  Newly released programming tool matrix, free to use forever

  At present, Programming Cat has built a matrix of programming tools for teenagers aged 4-16, including Little Rocket Toddler Programming Roki, Source Code Editor Kitten, Mobile End Programming Tool Programming Cat Nemo, Turtle Editor Turtle, Code Island Box, etc. This time, Programming Cat will fully open the programming tool matrix, and launch two new hardware programming tools, Maker IDE, a graphical hardware programming tool, and Cat: Bit, a programmable main control board. So far, the tool matrix has fully opened up software and hardware applications, covering all stages of children, primary schools, and middle schools, and realizing multi-scene coverage on the PC side and mobile end.

  The programming cat tool ecosystem has three major highlights: first, the tool is permanently free, and all programming tools released this time will be permanently open to users for free use; second, the access ability is open, and the programming building block definition ability and hardware access ability are fully open; third, multi-person collaborative editing, and the follow-up will continue to develop and support multi-person online collaborative editing functions, allowing multiple people to jointly create a work.

  Therefore, the release of the programming cat tool ecosystem maximizes the synergy effect of the tool matrix, on the one hand, it makes the user’s programming learning path more convenient, and meets the needs of multiple ages and scenarios. On the other hand, it also allows the industry to develop programming education based on the existing complete infrastructure, providing acceleration for the popularization of domestic programming education.

  Open and shared high-quality content to create and build a programming education content ecosystem

  Poor course content and lack of system are common problems facing the development of domestic programming education. Programming Cat has formed a "textbook + book magazine + IP" content moat matrix with "academic leadership teaching and research", and has accumulated more than 1,600 copyrights. It has won the "Shenzhen royalty fee award" for three consecutive years.

  This time, the Programming Cat content ecosystem will open up textbooks, teaching content, books and magazines, and the Programming Cat community to the industry to achieve high-quality content sharing. "Co-creation and co-construction" is a major highlight of this content ecosystem.

  On the one hand, Programming Cat will cooperate with publishing houses, colleges and universities, teachers and individual authors to create high-quality content; and encourage content creation based on programming tools such as the source code editor Kitten; at the same time, information technology teachers across the country can co-create and share programming teaching and research content in the programming teaching platform to achieve the perfect integration of teachers’ first-line teaching experience and teaching and research, and build a content creation platform through multiple channels to achieve the co-creation and co-construction of programming education content.

It can also stimulate teachers’ creative enthusiasm, allowing more children to be exposed to cutting-edge technologies earlier, and contributing to educational equity.

  In the future, Programming Cat will also build an open ecosystem with the participation of users, partners, and developers based on the open ecosystem of programming education, and ultimately achieve the goal of enabling the whole society to use a complete programming education infrastructure to achieve better education.

Interview with satellite positioning experts: centimeter-level positioning, how big a sky can the quasi-zenith top?

  Chen Chao, correspondent of Science and Technology Daily in Japan

  Not long ago, Japan launched the fourth Quasi-Zenith System (QZSS) "Pathfinder" 4 satellite that can be used for satellite navigation and positioning, and its announced centimeter-level positioning accuracy has attracted widespread attention. Regarding the latest progress of Quasi-Zenith satellites, a reporter from Science and Technology Daily interviewed satellite positioning expert Liu Zhixing, a visiting professor at York University in Canada.

  Three characteristics of quasi-zenith system

  Liu Zhixing first introduced that the quasi-zenith system has three satellites in tilt-synchronous orbit working over Japan, rotating alternately for 8 hours, so as to ensure that a satellite with a higher elevation angle is on duty in Japan’s "zenith" at any time, which makes it possible for this satellite, which will not be blocked, to "supplement" GPS’s positioning ability in harsh environments in urban centers and valleys. The successful launch of the No. 4 satellite will, together with the three satellites launched before, form a regional satellite navigation and positioning assistance enhancement system that can cover Japan and the surrounding area. Now Quasi-zenith is in the practice run stage. It will officially provide services to Japan and surrounding areas in 2018, and increase to seven satellites in 2023. It is possible to expand into a regional navigation system that does not rely on GPS and operates independently.

  Secondly, the positioning accuracy is enhanced. Quasi-Zenith satellites provide two GPS enhancement signals: L1S and L1Sb (starting to provide SBAS satellite-based enhancement services in 2020) can provide sub-meter-level positioning accuracy enhancement services, enabling users in Japan to improve their positioning accuracy from 10 meters when relying only on GPS to about 1 meter; the other is centimeter-level enhancement signal L6, including L6D and L6E, which can perform precise single-point positioning.

  Finally, the quasi-zenith system can also provide warning services, including disaster warnings such as earthquakes and tsunamis; when GPS satellites are abnormal, users can also be notified in time to avoid wrong positioning.

  Positioning accuracy up to 6 cm

  According to Japanese media reports, the positioning accuracy of the quasi-zenith system can reach 6 cm after the deployment of the first phase, including three tilt-synchronous orbit satellites and one geosynchronous orbit satellite. What technology is used to achieve this order of magnitude difference?

  Liu Zhixing explained that the centimeter-level positioning accuracy that the quasi-zenith satellite navigation system can achieve is achieved by the enhancement of GPS by the L6 signal. The precision single-point positioning provided by it is a key technology for achieving global precision real-time dynamic positioning and navigation. It is also a cutting-edge research direction in global navigation satellite system (GNSS) positioning, but it is not unique to Japan. In application, the L6 signal is not compatible with GPS signals, and special receivers and antennas are required for reception. It can be used in high-precision measurement, high-precision construction of construction machinery, and IT precision agriculture. Due to the large size of the antenna and receiver, it cannot be compared with mobile end points such as mobile phones. At this stage, it can only be used for measuring instruments and vehicles.

  Quasi-Zenith Technical Advantages and Controversies

  By 2023, when the number of Quasi-Zenith satellites reaches 7, it will have the ability to work independently from the GPS system and become Japan’s regional satellite navigation system. This process provides an in-orbit platform for testing and demonstration, which will greatly promote Japan’s independent research and development capabilities in the field of satellite navigation. However, in terms of applications, some media have pointed out that because Quasi-Zenith is a regional system, it cannot be popularized and may fall into a vicious circle of evolution alone.

  Liu Zhixing said that the quasi-zenith system is not globally oriented, and only receivers that can be used in and around Japan cannot guarantee the market scale. Although the field of autonomous driving is one of the application hotspots of high-precision positioning, due to the positioning time and the delay of satellite channel transmission, it can only be used as an auxiliary of other sensors at this stage, and the Japanese business community has not responded very enthusiastically. However, looking to the future, in the fourth stage of autonomous driving, that is, the driving stage dominated by artificial intelligence, the absolute position of centimeter-level accuracy is very necessary. Assuming that the mass production price of L6 corresponding to high-precision chips can reach less than 1,000 yen by then, which is better than the relative positioning sensors such as cameras and LIDAR that are currently relied on for autonomous driving, then the quasi-zenith system may have some competitiveness.

  Beidou is a complete global satellite navigation system

  Liu Zhixing concluded by saying that China’s Beidou satellite navigation system is starting global construction, and the construction of the enhancement system is also underway. In terms of space-based enhancement, recently, at the fourth meeting of the ICAO Navigation System Expert Group, the Beidou Satellite-based Augmentation System (BDSBAS) was officially awarded the SBAS system supplier ID and system time ID. BDSBAS became the sixth satellite-based augmentation satellite navigation system in the world, providing sub-meter-level services for aviation applications. In addition, Hezhong Sytron has been developing the centimeter-level Beidou satellite-based augmentation system since 2013. We can collectively expect "Chinese precision".

  (Science and Technology Daily, Tokyo, November 9)

From dangerous goods to safe endurance, they have created a rechargeable world.

  When going out, only one thing is allowed, and many people will choose mobile phones; To buy your first car, you may want to try a new energy electric car & HELIP; …

  These common choices in our daily life all exist because of the same thing — — Lithium battery.

  At 17: 45 Beijing time yesterday, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences announced that the 2019 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to Professor John B Goodenough, Professor Stanley Whittingham and Professor Yoshino in recognition of their contributions to the development of lithium batteries.

  The Nobel Prize in Chemistry once again makes people feel that they have flown from the top of the academic pyramid to ordinary people. The distance is so close, even within reach.

  With the lightest metal in the world

  Win the heaviest prize in the world

  When the power of your mobile phone is only 10%, I believe that many people’s anxiety and tension have reached the peak. At this time, if you suddenly find a charging treasure, it seems that life has been saved at that moment.

  Modern people can’t imagine life without the assistance of lithium batteries.

  Therefore, when the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded the 2019 Nobel Prize in Chemistry to three scientists from the United States, Britain and Japan who made outstanding contributions to the development of lithium batteries, people at the scene were extremely interested in it.

  Lithium, the least dense and lightest metal in the world.

  Although it is light and small, it has a big temper — — It is the most active metal among known elements (including radioactive elements).

  Therefore, it has become a very good material for developing batteries, but it has both advantages and disadvantages. When lithium metal is used as the electrode, there are huge hidden dangers — — This kind of battery is easy to catch fire or even explode.

  Therefore, if you want to use lithium in the battery, you must control it, and this year’s Nobel Prize winner in chemistry’s achievement actually lies in this.

  In other words, if these three scientists didn’t make Li obedient, we would be carrying an explosive bag every day and risking being ignited at any time by calling the Internet.

  So, how did they tame lithium?

  Originally, Goodenough and others found that manganese spinel is an excellent cathode material with low price, stability and excellent electrical and lithium conductivity. Its decomposition temperature is high, and its oxidation is much lower than that of lithium metal. Even if there is short circuit and overcharge, the danger of combustion and explosion can be avoided.

  Now, let’s imagine lithium cobaltate, and imagine it as a sandwich made of cobalt and oxygen. The lithium atom is the ham slice in the middle, which can be easily pulled out, so that the lithium atom can move quickly in the lithium cobaltate crystal — — Therefore, lithium cobaltate can replace metallic lithium as a lithium ion provider in the battery.

  At the same time, this oxide can also increase the voltage of the battery and the amount of electricity stored in the battery. More importantly, it is like putting a spell on lithium, making it docile and controllable.

  Liberal arts cross science and physics cross chemistry.

  Hard core life of 97-year-old father

  After briefly talking about the principle of lithium batteries, let’s talk about these three award-winning legends.

  At the age of 97, Goodenough is the oldest Nobel Prize winner so far.

  The old man’s life is quite hard — — After Goodenough was admitted to Yale University, he actually chose classical literature and philosophy as his first major. In order to get credit, he took two chemistry courses. When he graduated, his degree turned out to be a bachelor of mathematics. Because a math professor saw his talent, he was persuaded from a liberal arts student to a science student studying mathematics.

  Then, World War II broke out, and Goodenough joined the US Air Force. After retiring, at the age of 30, he went to the University of Chicago to study physics, and studied solid-state physics. After graduation, he went to Lincoln Laboratory of MIT and made contributions to the development of random access memory. This technology is the later computer memory.

  This wave of cross-border is not over yet — — In Lincoln Lab, Goodenough studied sodium-sulfur batteries. But it was not until 1976, at the age of 54, that he entered the Department of Chemistry of Oxford University in England, and his research field shifted to batteries, and he studied lithium cobaltate.

  That is, when Goodenough went to Oxford University, England, Whitingham, the founder of rechargeable lithium-ion battery, and his team had made the world’s first rechargeable lithium-ion battery — — They creatively used titanium sulfide as the cathode material and lithium metal as the cathode material. When charging, lithium ions move from the positive electrode to the negative electrode, and the discharge returns to the positive electrode, and so on.

  In 1977, the two high-energy scientists also co-published a book in the field of solid-state energy chemistry.

  On the other side of the globe, some Japanese companies, especially Sony, had made great progress in the commercialization of lithium rechargeable batteries and held a large number of patents.

  Akira Yoshino, after graduating from the Petrochemical Department of the Faculty of Engineering of Kyoto University with a master’s degree in engineering, directly entered Asahi Kasei Industrial Co., Ltd. In 1981, the research and development of lithium batteries began.

  He plays the role of matchmaker — — After establishing the basic framework of lithium-ion batteries, Yoshino made use of graphite, which has been invented by Sony Corporation of Japan and is used as the negative electrode of lithium batteries, with stable structure and low price, to draw a red line for lithium cobaltate as the positive electrode.

  In 1983, Yoshino made the world’s first rechargeable lithium-ion battery prototype by using lithium cobaltate cathode and polyacetylene anode. In 1985, many technical problems were overcome, metal lithium was completely eliminated, and the basic concept of rechargeable lithium-containing alkaline lithium-ion battery was established, and modern lithium-ion battery was born. In 1991, Sony released the first commercial lithium-ion battery in human history.

  "I’m only in my 90 s and I still have time."

  Three scientists are still working at an advanced age.

  Although the principle of the battery looks simple, the design and manufacturing process of the battery is very complicated. Until now, some alkaline batteries invented in the 19th century are still in use. It can be seen how difficult it is to invent and improve a new battery.

  This award is well deserved.

  In the "Nobel Prize" field, Goodenough is somewhat known as "Haruki Murakami" in the chemical field — — The voice is very high, "running with you" for many years.

  It is understood that 97-year-old Goodenough is still engaged in energy research.

  "I want to solve this problem before I die. I am only in my 90 s and I still have time." Goodenough hopes to develop solid-state batteries with high energy density and high safety, so that electric vehicles can replace high-capacity batteries of gasoline vehicles. He likes his metaphor of "crawling tortoise". "This kind of crawling throughout your life may bring benefits, especially if you cross different fields and collect all kinds of clues all the way. You have to have a lot of experience to integrate different ideas. "

  Whitingham, 78, is still thinking and working. He has also co-written books to observe and analyze the history, evolution and future state of energy storage, which describes the future development of lithium batteries.

  Just after being told that he won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 71-year-old Akira Yoshino replied in an interview with the media: "Curiosity" is the biggest driving force. Prior to this, Akira Yoshino said that battery technology is a complex and difficult interdisciplinary field, and its development needs many experts. Lithium-ion batteries are the result of collective wisdom.
