[New Tang Dynasty News, Beijing time, February 25, 2024]Hello everyone, welcome to the News Five. Today’s co-hosts are Jin Shi, Qin Peng, Fuyao, Lin Lan, and me (Qin Yue). The collision of opinions and diverse perspectives of five people will take you into a rich world of news. Welcome to subscribe and like our independent channel.

Today’s focus: Xi Jinping actually used “this trick”, China’s economy is really hopeless! There is a tourism boom in China, but it is not good news; this data ranks China as “number one” in the world, and people foresee a huge change; Little Pink’s spiritual victory method, AI Messi kneels down to apologize.

Little Pink Spiritual Victory! AI synthesized Messi apology video

Messi, the Argentinian football superstar of Inter Miami, did not play in the friendly match in Hong Kong due to injury. He later played in the Japanese exchange match, attracting strong support from Chinese netizens. Messi also posted a video on his official Weibo to explain why he did not play. However, China’s little pink fans are still indignant regarding Messi’s lack of apology and do not buy it. Recently, Chinese fans used artificial intelligence (AI) to synthesize a video of Messi wearing a Tang suit to apologize to Chinese fans. He said: I should not let the Chinese fans down, please forgive me, but the AI ​​Messi actually swore, He will not go to Japan in the future. After seeing this, Chinese netizens even said happily that Messi still has China in his heart.

question:

Fuyao, Messi’s real person has clarified it, but the CCP seems not satisfied either. It allows comments regarding beating Messi to stay online. Why are they still not satisfied?

Qin Peng, will the CCP keep banning Messi?

Answer: It will not be banned forever. There is precedent in this regard. In 2019, Morey, the general manager of the NBA Houston Rockets, triggered protests by the Chinese Communist Party because of his support for Hong Kong. Subsequently, the NBA overseas games in China were stopped, and CCTV Sports Channel stopped broadcasting. But following the storm, broadcasting resumed in March 2022. The Messi incident is still different now than it was at the beginning. First, at that time, the CCP took advantage of Morey, but this time there is no real evidence for Messi’s resistance because he complied with the contract and did not breach the contract; second, the CCP is now powerful Hong Kong needs to reshape its international image, and the mainland also needs to attract foreign investment. If the CCP keeps grabbing Messi, it will be very embarrassing, so it is expected to let him go soon. In fact, I think the fact that the authorities now allow Messi to explain via video and make it trending is a sign of reconciliation. But following all, Messi didn’t apologize, and the CCP mightn’t keep it off, so it had to use Little Pink to vent its anger.

Lin Lan, the leader of the Communist Party of China has met Messi several times. Do you think you will meet him once more in the future?

Nervous and unable to stop

Thank you for your analysis. China’s economy is in decline, and the leader of the Communist Party of China personally directed a big move, the waste economy. What’s going on? Next, Jinshi will take you to learn more.

Jinshi: China’s economy is currently facing tremendous pressure, and the outside world is paying attention to what other tricks the Chinese Communist Party government can use to save the economy.

As a result, Zhao’er really came. The leader of the Communist Party of China convened the fourth meeting of the Central Financial and Economic Committee on the 23rd. In summary, the meeting put forward two points: the first is to promote a new round of large-scale equipment updates and the trade-in of consumer goods; the second point is to effectively reduce the logistics costs of the whole society.

Regarding the first point, the meeting said that large-scale equipment updates and the replacement of old consumer goods with new ones will effectively promote consumption and investment, allow more high-quality durable goods to enter residents’ lives, and waste resources can be recycled.

As for the second point, reducing logistics costs, the meeting said that logistics is the “string” of the real economy. Only by increasing logistics costs can economic efficiency be improved.

question:

1. Qin Yue, Lin Lan, Qin Peng, I would like to ask everyone. Just looking at the surface text, I feel that the two points mentioned in the meeting are very good. What do you think? Do you think these two moves are stupid moves or clever moves? ?

Qin Yue: To be honest, if there was no video, I would suspect this is fake news. Let’s not say whether this trick is stupid or clever. First of all, the face is really lost. It may be normal for other countries’ political ecology to make such a call. But I feel that in China, this is what is said in a meeting at the county magistrate level. It should not be proposed by the person who personally directed it. You spend money to show off your generosity externally, but in the domestic waste economy, everyone needs to tighten their belts and save money. It’s funny. Woolen cloth? He really knows how to govern the country.

2. We have discussed a lot regarding the structural issues of China’s economy before. On the day of the Central Financial and Economic Conference, Premier Li Qiang of the Communist Party of China also mentioned another point at the State Council executive meeting, which is to make “stabilizing foreign investment” the focus of this year’s economic work. This measure actually touches on a structural issue, that is, China and foreign investment Relationship. Fuyao, what do you think of Li Qiang’s statement?

3. Qin Peng, Lin Lan, during this Chinese New Year, the tourism industry performed well. It is said that the number of trips has reached 470 million. According to the latest results released by mainland travel platform “Ctrip”, net operating income in the fourth quarter of last year reached 10.3 billion yuan, an annual increase of 105%. How do you interpret this phenomenon? Mainland China’s economy is deflation, but people are more fond of traveling?

4. This year is the Year of the Dragon, and a batch of “dragon babies” are regarding to arrive. Mainland media said that China is expected to usher in a baby boom in the Year of the Dragon this year. We know that among the twelve traditional Chinese zodiac signs, the dragon is considered the most auspicious. Therefore, it has been relied on for a long time. There are Chinese people who particularly like the saying “dragon sons are born in the year of the dragon”. According to data, in 2012, the last Year of the Dragon, the number of babies born in China was the highest in this century, even higher than in the subsequent years when second and third children were allowed.

Qin Yue and Fuyao, do you think this Year of the Dragon will alleviate China’s population problem?

Qin Yue: The so-called “small demographic turnaround” in the Year of the Dragon will certainly not solve the long-term population decline. The reasons are not complicated. First, the Chinese Communist Party implemented the one-child policy. Forced abortion and sterilization. In recent years, there have been calls for two or three children. It is obvious that everyone already knows that the lives of the people are at stake in such a regime that changes orders day by day.

Second: You made it clear that the system is not good, but China’s economy is indeed not good now. Raising a child is a very specific matter, which requires a lot of time and money costs, especially for women. According to the latest “Cost of Childbirth in China” released by a Chinese think tank According to data from the 2024 Edition of the Report, when women take care of children aged 0-4, their working hours decrease by a total of 2106 hours. If calculated based on an hourly wage of 30 yuan, the reduced wage income cost for women is approximately 63,000 yuan. Having children also results in a 12-17% drop in women’s wages.

Third, the social welfare system in China is too weak. According to the “China Childbirth Cost Report 2024 Edition”, the cost of raising a child to 18 years old relative to per capita GDP is 6.3 times in China, almost the highest in the world, while Australia is only 2.08 times, and France is 2.24 times. Sweden is 2.91 times.

Not to mention the reasons why I will be born and continue to grow up in a society like China, and will be involuntarily involved.

Thanks for watching, see you soon.
