Long March 7, go!

　　Long March 7, go!

　　The Long March 7 came into being: the fuel is more environmentally friendly and the carrying capacity is stronger.


　　With the continuous development of China’s space industry, the demand for the construction of space stations and the launch of high-quality satellites began to appear, but the older generation of launch vehicles could not meet the demand. In order to carry these massive cabins and satellites, it is necessary to develop a new type of large-capacity rocket. Moreover, the older generation of Long March rockets used a lot of highly toxic hydrazine-nitrogen tetroxide fuel. From the point of view of protecting the natural environment and working environment, it is also necessary to develop a new type of environmentally friendly launch vehicle.

　　

[1] You can see the rolling red smoke of nitrogen tetroxide, which is not only highly toxic, but also a destruction of the ozone layer.

　　In order to meet the power demand of new launch vehicles, new rocket engines are essential.


　　Thus, in 2001, YF-100 liquid oxygen/kerosene engine with 120 tons thrust and YF-77 liquid oxygen/liquid hydrogen engine with 70 tons thrust were approved. The Long March 5, powered by these two engines, also entered the public eye in 2006.


　　Two years later, in order to meet the launch demand of small satellites, Long March 6 was also launched in 2008. Its core stage used a single YF-100 engine, and its secondary stage used a single YF-115 liquid oxygen/kerosene engine with 18 tons of thrust.

　　

[2] The Long March 6 equipped with YF-100 engine is very different from the take-off effect.

　　The largest LEO (low Earth orbit carrying capacity) of Long March 5 is 25 tons, and the smallest LEO is 10 tons, while the SSO (sun synchronous orbit carrying capacity) of Long March 6 is 0.5 tons, and LEO is about 1 ton.


　　In order to fill the gap between Long March 5 and Long March 6, and to provide vehicles for future cargo ships, Long March 7 was put forward in 2010. In fact, the Long March 7 is almost a replica of the Long March 2-the 3.35-meter diameter core stage and the 2.25-meter diameter booster stage, which inherited the configuration of the Long March 2, but at the same time combined with the new rocket engine, which is really innovative.

　　

[3] When the two rockets were launched together, the Long March 7 was obviously much thinner.

　　The first stage of Long March 7 core adopts double YF-100 liquid oxygen kerosene engine, the four booster stages adopt single YF-100 liquid oxygen kerosene engine, and the second stage adopts four YF-115 engines. The successful test launch of Long March 6 last year has already declared that these two engines are very successful products. Therefore, the successful launch of the Long March 7 can be said to be fully guaranteed.

　　

[4] In the assembly workshop of Long March 7, we can easily identify the corresponding position of each arrow.

　　What is the main purpose of the Long March 7? Transport the ship!


　　The main purpose of the Long March 7 in the future is to carry the "Tianzhou" series of cargo spacecraft and give them to the astronauts in the space station. At the same time, the successful operation of the upper stage of Expedition 1 last year, the appearance of the upper stage of Expedition 2 this year and the possible new low-temperature upper stage in the future can also give more functions to Long March 7-it will help the satellite to go into geosynchronous orbit (GTO), so that Long March 7 has enough ability to replace some existing launch vehicles.

　　

【 5.1 】 The effect diagram of "Tianzhou" cargo spacecraft and its actual cargo hold section.

　　

【 5.2 】 Actual cargo hold section of Tianzhou cargo spacecraft

　　Besides Wenchang Chicken, Wenchang also has a satellite launch center.


　　The successful launch of the Long March 7 also announced the official opening of Wenchang Satellite Launch Center.


　　Why should the new launch center be located in Wenchang? Of course, Wenchang has many advantages:


　　As we all know, the lower the latitude, the faster the linear speed of the earth’s rotation, which can make the rocket carry more loads. The latitude of Wenchang Satellite Launch Center is only 19, which is a very favorable position.

　　

[6.1] Location of Wenchang Satellite Launch Center

　　2. Because the first-class diameter of the core of Long March 5 has reached 5 meters, it means that it can’t be transported by land-because it can’t cross the tunnel; Not by air-planes can’t transport things with such a large diameter. Therefore, shipping has become the only feasible way. The rocket body made in Tianjin can easily reach Wenchang by water.

　　

[6.2] The Long March 7 packed boxes at Tianjin Port, and its destination was Wenchang.

　　3. The launching direction of rockets is basically east and south. This means that the burned remains of the booster and first-stage rockets will fall to the east and south. The east and south of Wenchang are near the sea, which means that the debris of the rocket will fall directly on the sea surface, which fundamentally avoids the risk of debris hitting people.

　　

[6.3] Wenchang Satellite Launch Center

　　Many foreign space centers also refer to these elements. The Kennedy Space Center in the United States is the Atlantic Ocean to the east, with a latitude of about 28; The Kulu Space Center of ESA is also near the sea, and its latitude is only 4, which is close to the equator. It’s really enviable …

　　

【 7.1 】 The Kennedy Space Center, located in Cape Narr, Karaoui, has the Atlantic Ocean on the right.

　　

[7.2] The Caribbean Sea is clearly visible above the Kourou Space Center of ESA.

　　When the photos of the Long March 7 joint training were released last year, many people noticed the transformation of the launcher-the huge launch tower in the past was replaced by a simple launcher. In the launch of Long March 6 last year, this technology was also adopted, and even further-transshipment was directly carried out by the launch vehicle.

　　

[8] What about the wheel of the transfer car? σ (△|||)? It turned out to be too small? (╯ ▽)?

　　In the previous launch preparation process, our rocket had to be transported vertically from the assembly center to the launch tower, with almost no support. Because the rocket is very high, its center of gravity is also very high. When the wind is too strong, the transshipment work is quite dangerous. This is also unfavorable for rocket launch preparation.

　　

[9] Such a big luck, without any assistance … Did you panic?

　　In the past, the launch tower served as a rocket assembly room, so it was made so big. However, with the increase of rocket launch frequency, the launch preparation time is gradually shortened, and vertical transshipment can meet this requirement. With the development of technology, the current launch tower has only the functions of fixing and fuel filling, which can be done very lightly, making it possible to transport the arrow with the frame, thus reducing the requirements for the environmental conditions of transshipment. Of course, because the launch tower can’t be abandoned easily, and the transfer track from the assembly plant to the launch tower is fixed, the rockets in the other three launch centers can’t enjoy this treatment.

　　

[10] Can you imagine the whole umbilical tower coming out of the assembly room?

　　Playing a rocket is also a relatively expensive thing. I’m sorry if I don’t take this opportunity to bring a little load. Last year’s launch of Changliu carried 20 satellites at once, all of which were in orbit and successfully monitored and controlled. The Long March 7 is no exception. It brought a heavyweight passenger-a small-scale model of a new manned spacecraft.

　　

[11] Do you see any difference in the design of the new manned spacecraft?

　　The Shenzhou manned spacecraft now in use in China is well known to all. It draws lessons from the structure of the orbital module, return module and propulsion module of the former Soviet Union Soyuz spacecraft, so it also designed three cabins.

　

[12] This is a brotherly spaceship.

　　The new manned spacecraft, except the orbital module, consists only of the command module and the propulsion module, which is closer to some American spacecraft.

　　

[13] The new manned spacecraft is closer to the American spacecraft, with a western flavor …

　　So why remove the orbital module?


　　From the development of spacecraft, the orbital module is a multifunctional module, which is essentially a stopgap measure without a space station. Astronauts can carry out activities in the orbital module and also carry out some experiments. Moreover, China’s Shenzhou orbital module can still operate in orbit for a period of time, providing more abundant data. In particular, on Shenzhou VII, the orbital module was also transformed into an airlock module by magic, which became a transitional module for spacecraft/space environment.


　　However, with the proposal of the space station plan and the successful operation of the "Tiangong" series of orbiters, astronauts have been able to have a more comfortable working and activity environment, and the orbital module has gradually lost its significance. When we remove the orbital module, the return module and the propulsion module can be made bigger, thus carrying more passengers and more fuel. It will lay a solid foundation for further manned space work (even manned moon landing) in the future.


　　Words written outside the article: two different sizes of propulsion modules really seem to be preparing for manned landing on the moon.

Is eating dietary fiber just to lose weight？ You underestimate its power.

Please put on two more clothes before reading this article, because knowledge is a little cold. To tell the truth, I have already prepared my mind, and the reading volume may not be very high, but you don’t know, this is the basic knowledge of nutrition. After learning, you will know that keeping in good health is such a simple thing.

Just as building a house requires laying a foundation, dogs, as a popular science worker, must teach you these basic knowledge so that you can learn better and more steadily.

Therefore, please read this article patiently, and you will gain a different life. Starting today’s program, how can dietary fiber be used? Why does your impression of it only stop at losing weight? Is all this a distortion of human nature or a moral decay? Welcome to "Approaching Science": Dietary Fiber-the Guardian of Human Health.

Next you will see:

1. What exactly is dietary fiber?

2. How strong is dietary fiber?

3. Food sources of dietary fiber

4. Three misunderstandings of dietary fiber

Nutrition experts are always reminding: to eat more dietary fiber, what is it? The professional definition is: polysaccharide that exists in plants and cannot be digested and absorbed by human body. Speak human words …

First of all, as long as the food grows in the ground, it contains dietary fiber, not just vegetables, fruits and whole grains you think. Like mushrooms and nuts, they are also rich in dietary fiber (which we will talk about later).

Secondly, dietary fiber is a kind of carbohydrate, which can be divided into simple and complex schools. Dietary fiber is a disciple of polysaccharide under complex schools, and this disciple is very different.

▼

Why is it different? Because it can neither be digested nor absorbed by the human body, nor can it provide energy for the human body. See? Why do people think of losing weight when it comes to dietary fiber? I think the root cause lies here. So, dietary fiber seems to be useless, a waste? No, outstanding people are often different. Dietary fiber has made great contributions to our human body. Read on.

Before clarifying this question, let’s learn about the classification of dietary fiber.

1. The classification of dietary fiber

▼

Water solubility, as the name implies, means that this kind of fiber can be dissolved in water, just like cement, which will swell up after absorbing water and make the food ball sticky. For a simple example, when people soak oatmeal, have you noticed that it becomes sticky after a long time? This is due to the water-soluble fiber in oats.

Although water-insoluble dietary fibers are insoluble in water, they are mixed in the food ball, just like steel bars, which is beneficial to prop up the food ball and make it bigger, thus increasing satiety and stimulating intestinal peristalsis. They are inseparable friends, and most plant foods contain both dietary fibers.

2. The role of dietary fiber

It is precisely because dietary fiber can get rich when it meets water, oh no, it gets fat when it meets water, and it is firmly bonded with other substances, so the health effect is increasing.

First of all, of course, it is well-known to lose weight.

Controlling weight is beneficial to losing weight.

Reason: The combination of dietary fiber and food can increase the volume and consistency in the stomach and increase the feeling of fullness, thus making you eat less. Plus it can’t provide energy, which helps you reduce your energy intake.

Reduce serum cholesterol and prevent heart disease.

Reason: Here we want to talk about a substance called bile acid, which is a component of digestive juice and secreted by the liver, and can promote our body’s absorption of fat and cholesterol.

▼

However, dietary fiber can adsorb bile acids.

▼

With less bile acid, the absorption rate of fat and cholesterol will decrease, which is beneficial to the decline of blood lipid, which also reduces the risk of coronary heart disease.

Conducive to controlling blood sugar and maintaining balance.

Reason: First of all, dietary fiber will not increase blood sugar because it will not be digested and absorbed by the intestine and will not provide energy. In addition, dietary fiber mixed with chyme can also reduce the absorption of sugar in food by small intestine, thus slowly raising blood sugar.

▼

Because dietary fiber comes forward, the pancreas does not need to secrete so much insulin to metabolize sugar, which also reduces the working pressure of the pancreas, thus reducing the occurrence of diabetes.

▼

Conducive to the growth of intestinal probiotics

Reason: Water-soluble dietary fiber can be fermented by intestinal bacteria to synthesize short-chain fatty acids, which is a hotbed for probiotics. Short-chain fatty acids can also adjust the PH value of the intestine, which is more conducive to the growth of probiotics. When probiotics are strong, harmful bacteria in the intestines can’t make waves, and the intestines are healthier.

▼

Enhance intestinal function, which is beneficial to waste discharge.

Reason: As we said just now, dietary fiber expands when it meets water, and when it is combined with stool, it can make it bigger and softer, which is beneficial to the discharge of stool, and cellulose can also promote intestinal peristalsis, which accelerates defecation.

In addition, dietary fiber will be discharged with a small amount of cholesterol, fat and heavy metals in food, and you will feel light and relaxed.

▼

Prevention of colon cancer

Reason: The time of defecation is accelerated, which also means that it stays in the intestine for a shorter time, which can prevent carcinogens from contacting with the easily infected intestinal mucosa for a long time, thus reducing the possibility of canceration.

▼

The above six points are the efficacy of dietary fiber. See, it is simply a warm man who cares about everything and has a central air conditioning level!

In this era of obesity, diabetes and heart disease, dietary fiber is the hero to save mankind!

▼

Hurry up and pass it on to those people around you who don’t like fruits and vegetables, and let them see what a pity it is!

Since dietary fiber is so great, which foods have high dietary fiber content? Please accept this form.

▼

(Click to enlarge)

Here, dogs want to focus on the category of vegetables. Generally speaking, the dietary fiber content of wild vegetables is higher than that of cultivated vegetables, and dark green vegetables are higher than that of light-colored vegetables.

So, are all vegetables high in dietary fiber?

No, usually fruit vegetables, such as tomatoes (0.5%), cucumbers (0.5%) and wax gourd (0.7%) are relatively low. So, you should know which vegetable to choose for constipation!

After seeing the last row of nuts, friends who want to lose weight and want to eat nuts can choose almonds.

Dietary fiber has so many benefits, so is it better to eat more?

No, too much intake is not good for human body, because dietary fiber can be combined with iron, calcium, zinc, etc., thus affecting the absorption and utilization of these elements, which will lead to malnutrition in the long run.

The standard is to consume 30g every day. Take tremella with high content in mushroom as an example. Eating about 100g is equivalent to 30g of dietary fiber. However, dogs don’t advise you to eat a single food to meet your needs, but to diversify your food. Unfortunately, according to statistics, the dietary fiber intake of Chinese residents is far from the standard.

Come on! You, with your plain appearance and average qualifications, finally have a chance to get ahead!

I hope that in the future dinner, everyone will stop vomiting-inducing toasts, but

▼

In order to help people make better use of it, the dog lists the questions that people often ask me and answers them uniformly.

1. Is the dietary fiber content of vegetables with tendons higher than that of vegetables without tendons?

NO! This truth is like a real rich man. You may not see that TA is wearing any famous brand from head to toe, but you really just can’t see it. For example, sweet potato does not contain gluten, but its cellulose content is much higher than that of Chinese cabbage with gluten. In addition, as we mentioned just now, there is no gluten in fungus, tremella and laver, but the dietary fiber content is very high.

2. Does chopping and breaking vegetables lose the healthy function of fiber?

Not really. Fiber can not be digested by human small intestine, so it can play a healthy role and will not be changed by physical treatment. Whether it is chopped or boiled, it will not change.

Yes, it is not afraid of chopping!

Studies have measured the swelling power and water-holding capacity of dietary fiber from burdock residue, and the swelling power and water-holding capacity of dietary fiber are basically unchanged when it is crushed in the range of 355um-250um. However, under normal circumstances, we don’t need to break it too much, because other oxidizable nutrients will be lost, and secondly, we will eat more food.

3. Does the more dietary fiber you eat, the more you lose weight?

Dietary fiber absorbs water and expands in the stomach, resulting in satiety, reducing eating other foods and really helping to lose weight. However, if you eat dietary fiber without reducing the intake of other foods, it will not help you lose weight.

At present, there are many biscuits with high dietary fiber on the market, saying that they can lose weight. The dog wants to explain that you may get fatter and fatter as you eat them. Because dietary fiber can’t be digested, especially insoluble dietary fiber, the taste is not good. In order to avoid stinging, a lot of oil will be added to improve the taste. You may eat more fat than dietary fiber, so don’t be superstitious.

That’s all for today’s cold knowledge. I believe you will work hard to reach the standard and win at a healthy starting line. After all, something good will happen to those who live long enough.

Summary: the role of dietary fiber

1. Weight control is beneficial to lose weight.

2. Reduce serum cholesterol and prevent heart disease.

3. It is beneficial to control blood sugar and maintain balance.

4. Conducive to the growth of intestinal probiotics

5. Enhance intestinal function, which is beneficial to waste discharge.

Step 6 Prevent colon cancer

Ideas and strategies to enhance the self-control ability of supply chain

　　Supply chain security has become a highly concerned issue in all countries, and it is also an urgent task to realize the independent control of China’s supply chain.
　　Realizing the self-control of supply chain is an inevitable choice for building a new development pattern, which is of great significance for unswervingly building a manufacturing power.
　　To enhance the self-control ability of supply chain, we need to take a multi-pronged approach, and pay attention to coordinating and handling the relationship with global division of labor and cooperation.
　　The Central Economic Work Conference laid out the key tasks for 2021, and clearly pointed out that "enhancing the self-control ability of the industrial chain supply chain" and "the security and stability of the industrial chain supply chain is the basis for building a new development pattern". So, as far as China’s supply chain is concerned, what problems and risks need to be dealt with? Why is it urgent to improve self-control ability? How to take multiple measures to ensure the safety of supply chain? These are all important topics that need to be studied and solved urgently at present.
　　Pay close attention to supply chain security.
　　Generally speaking, the supply chain mainly refers to the process of multinational companies purchasing raw materials around the world and combining them into finished products through complex processes. Multinational companies engaged in production and business activities in countries all over the world need to effectively manage the supply chain all over the world, that is, plan, coordinate, operate, control and optimize the whole supply chain system, and deliver the products needed by customers to the right place at the right time according to the right quantity, quality and state, and optimize the total cost.
　　In this process, multinational companies have formed complex supply chains and networks by arranging supply chains around the world. As a part of the global supply chain, the supply chains of various countries are linked by interests, which influence, depend on and interact with each other. Because it is difficult for a country to effectively control the supply chain of other countries, and the supply chain operation may get out of control, the supply chain security has become a highly concerned issue for all countries.
　　In recent years, China has also encountered some problems such as poor industrial operation caused by the failure or even fracture of supply chain operation. Supply chain risks mainly come from technical protection and technical barriers in some developed countries. For example, once some countries find that a high-tech research and development in China has reached a key node, they begin to strictly limit the supply of technology. Some countries can control the global supply chain of an industry and become "chain owners" because of their technological or resource advantages. With the help of the status of "chain owner", they will lay out the supply chain in other countries with their own needs as the center, transfer the supply chain links with low profit margins, consolidate their dominant position at the highest end of the value chain, and use their control to crack down on potential competitors, thus making other countries in the supply chain in a relatively passive position and facing greater supply chain risks. In recent years, China has been frequently suppressed by individual "chain owners". Because some products in China are still in the process of processing and assembly in the supply chain, some core technologies are still subject to people, and there are shortcomings, which directly leads to the "stuck neck". In addition, the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic has also prompted some countries to take measures to move some key supply chains back to their own countries or relocate them. Therefore, it has become a top priority to realize the independent control of China’s supply chain.
　　Realizing self-control is an inevitable choice.
　　We should have a correct understanding of the self-control of supply chain. "Autonomy" means that China can play a leading role in key supply chains; "Controllable" means that although China cannot dominate some supply chains, it has great control and influence. The purpose of realizing self-control of supply chain is to ensure the smooth operation of national economy and realize economic security and industrial security.
　　Generally speaking, indicators to measure the security of a country’s supply chain include toughness and elasticity. Resilience means that the supply chain has strong enough anti-strike ability; Elasticity refers to the ability of supply chain to recover quickly from accidental damage and run continuously in the face of uncertain environment. Realizing "autonomous control" means that the supply chain has good toughness and elasticity, and can maintain or quickly resume normal operation under external shocks.
　　Realizing the self-control of supply chain is an inevitable choice to build a new development pattern. Accelerating the construction of a new development pattern with the domestic big cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycles promoting each other means building an autonomous and controllable supply chain in China, that is, from raw materials and equipment to intermediate products and finished products to consumer purchases, all these links are autonomous and controllable. As the second largest economy in the world, China cannot allow its supply chain to be dominated. At the same time, China has a huge domestic demand market and efficient industrial clusters, which is an important guarantee to realize the independent and controllable supply chain. China must build an independent and controllable supply chain to provide important support for accelerating the construction of a new development pattern.
　　Realizing the self-control of supply chain is an inevitable choice for building a manufacturing power. A strong manufacturing country requires not only a large-scale manufacturing industry, complete industrial sectors and high technology content, but also a sufficiently safe and efficient supply chain. It can be seen from the suppression of China’s high-tech supply chain by some developed countries in recent years that there are some weak links in China’s manufacturing supply chain, including technical shortcomings. Therefore, to unswervingly build a manufacturing power, we must build an independent, controllable and highly secure supply chain.
　　Take multiple measures at the same time to enhance self-control ability
　　To enhance the self-control ability of the industrial chain supply chain, we should take measures to promote the completion of short boards and forging long boards as a whole, and implement the industrial base reconstruction project in accordance with the requirements put forward by the Central Economic Work Conference, and intensify our work.
　　Find out the base and fill in the shortcomings. Relevant departments should be organized to make a thorough survey of the supply chain of China’s high-tech industries and other key industries, list the weak links according to the technology gap and the pressure from competitors, and list the possible alternative technologies. For key supply chain links and "stuck neck" technology, lock the shortcomings one by one, focus on tackling key problems and transform research and development results as soon as possible to expand the technology spillover effect; For some key industries, speed up the establishment of independent and controllable supply chains to ensure the safety of supply chains.
　　Give full play to advantages and forge long boards. In the global supply chain, China’s manufacturing industry has the competitiveness that can not be ignored, that is, the "long board", for example, it has a strong manufacturing industrial cluster and technological advantages suitable for China’s industry and market characteristics. Measures such as improving the business environment should be taken to further develop these "long board" advantages and encourage enterprises to become bigger and stronger in their advantageous fields.
　　Lay a solid foundation and improve your ability. The overall competitiveness of a country’s supply chain must be based on a solid industrial foundation. We should establish an evaluation system of industrial basic ability, accurately grasp and evaluate the present situation of China’s industrial chain supply chain and key technologies, and determine scientific and reasonable upgrading goals; In-depth implementation of industrial base reengineering project, clear focus, classification organization and implementation; To strengthen the construction of basic R&D system of common technology, we can consider adopting different organizational forms according to the characteristics of different common technologies.
　　Pay attention to coordinating and handling the two major relationships.
　　With the deepening of economic globalization, the international division of labor is becoming more and more complicated, and the dependence of supply chain between countries will become greater and greater. Therefore, to improve the self-control ability of supply chain, we should also pay attention to coordinating and handling the two major relationships.
　　The first is the relationship between supply chain autonomy and global division of labor and cooperation. Autonomous controllability can only be "autonomous" and "controllable" to a certain extent, and it is difficult to cover all links in the supply chain, so we should combine autonomous controllability with global supply chain cooperation. For some "stuck neck" links, we should have certain technical reserves in our country and have the ability to concentrate resources to achieve technological breakthroughs; At the same time, based on the principle of mutual benefit and win-win, we should establish closer supply chain cooperation by signing free trade agreements and investment agreements with other economic and trade partners to form complementary advantages and improve the stability and security of international supply chain cooperation.
　　The second is the relationship between self-control and upgrading of supply chain. For China, in addition to realizing the self-control of the supply chain, it is also necessary to vigorously enhance the competitiveness of the industrial chain supply chain and its position in the global value chain through technological innovation. From the enterprise level, we should vigorously carry forward the entrepreneurial spirit and promote innovation in raw materials, technology, products, markets and production organization. From the government level, we should vigorously consolidate the basic research links in the innovation chain of Science and Technology, make long-term planning and continue to invest. At the same time, it is necessary to promote a better combination of effective markets and promising governments.

Do you know about World Statistics Day？

　　　　　　　 In 2010, the 90th meeting of the 64th UN General Assembly adopted a formal resolution to designate October 20th, 2010 as "World Statistics Day". This is the first global statistics day in history, and global statisticians have ushered in their own common festival. Five years later, the 69th United Nations General Assembly officially designated October 20th as World Statistics Day, which is celebrated every five years. As a grand event that transcends national boundaries, World Statistics Day highlights the concept of "global statistics are one" and enhances the importance of official statistics and public recognition.

　

　　　　　　　 I. Origin of "World Statistics Day"


　　　　　　　 After the end of World War II, all countries are healing the wounds of war and restoring and developing their economies. In this process, official statistics began to play a role in social and government decision-making, especially in important areas of people’s livelihood such as economy, population and health. With the continuous development and progress of economy and society, the national statistical agency responsible for producing and disseminating official statistical data has become one of the important national institutions in every country, and statistical data has also become an important basis for government decision-making, academic research and public knowledge.

　

　　　　　　　 Worldwide, the United Nations established the Statistical Commission in 1947, which is responsible for formulating international statistical standards, methods and guidelines, and promoting the standardization and global comparability of statistics in all countries of the world, the improvement of methods and systems and the improvement of data quality. Nowadays, global statisticians cooperate sincerely, and official statistics have formed a closely linked world family. Every year, heads of statistical agencies of United Nations member countries and international organizations gather in new york to make decisions on various statistical issues at the annual meeting of the United Nations Statistical Commission. Official statistics have made unprecedented achievements on a global scale, which deserves to be celebrated by the statistical community.

　

　　　　　　　 In September 2008, the United Nations Statistics Division invited countries, regional institutions and international organizations to express their views on the proposal to celebrate World Statistics Day on October 20, 2010. Although many countries and regions have held statistics day, statistics week or statistics month celebrations in various forms, global statistics day celebrations can better show the great achievements made by official statistics in the world and the important contributions made to economic and social development. This initiative received a wide response during the fortieth session of the United Nations Statistical Commission in February 2009, and 75 countries and international organizations expressed their support. Based on these positive feedbacks, the forty-first session of the United Nations Statistical Commission in February 2010 considered the report on World Statistics Day, and at the 64th session of the United Nations General Assembly, a resolution was made to designate October 20, 2010 as World Statistics Day, inviting governments to support the celebration of World Statistics Day.

　

　　　　　　　 Second, the style of previous World Statistics Days


　　　　　　　 On October 20th, 2010, the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs and the National Bureau of Statistics of China jointly held the first global celebration of "World Statistics Day" in the United Nations Pavilion of the Shanghai World Expo, with the theme of celebrating many achievements of official statistics and promoting the core values of "service, integrity and professionalism" of official statistics, aiming at enhancing public understanding and support for official statistics. Li Keqiang, Deputy Prime Minister of the State Council, China, and Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General of the United Nations, sent written speeches; The Statistics Department of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs and the National Bureau of Statistics of China jointly held the launching ceremony of "World Women: 2010" and "Interpretation of Main Statistical Indicators in China", signed the Letter of Intent on International Statistical Training Cooperation between the National Bureau of Statistics of People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the United Nations Statistics Department, and held the opening ceremony of the China International Statistical Training Center-United Nations Statistical Cooperation Center. The celebration of the first World Statistics Day was supported and promoted by about 80 countries around the world, and more than 100 countries around the world held celebrations.

　

　　　　　　　 On October 20, 2015, the second World Statistics Day was celebrated in Xi ‘an, China. Nearly 100 statistical officials, experts and scholars from 55 countries and international organizations gathered together to show government statistical achievements, share statistical development experience and advocate statistics to better serve economic and social development and enhance people’s well-being. The theme of this Statistics Day is "Optimizing Data and Improving Life", which has been supported and promoted by national statistical agencies, statistical associations, universities and other partners in more than 110 countries and regions around the world. Promotion activities include holding a press conference, reporting the latest survey or census results, and releasing statistics of interest to the general public, which further expands the influence of official statistics.

　

　　　　　　　 The third World Statistics Day was held on October 20th, 2020, with the theme of "Connecting the world with data we can trust", emphasizing the importance of credibility, authoritative data, innovation and public products in the national statistical system. The celebration was organized under the guidance of the United Nations Statistical Commission, and the global statistical agencies made joint efforts to hold various activities to display and publicize statistics. In his invitation letter to all countries, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres pointed out: "On the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations, the whole world is deploying data to meet common challenges. Let us take the opportunity of World Statistics Day to highlight the important role of statistics in promoting sustainable development."

　

　 Logo of previous world statistics days

　

　　　　　　　 Third, China Statistics Open Day


　　　　　　　 The National Bureau of Statistics of China responded positively to the United Nations resolution on celebrating World Statistics Day, and designated September 20th, 2010 as "China Statistics Open Day", and carried out a series of activities with the themes of "Statistics with You" and "Towards Open and Transparent China Statistics". Since then, in mid-September every year, the National Bureau of Statistics will hold a series of activities of the China Statistics Open Day in combination with the major themes and key work of China’s official statistics in that year, and invite grassroots statistical investigators, users of statistical data, teachers and students of colleges and universities, netizens and media reporters and other representatives from all walks of life to the event site for discussion and exchange, so as to enhance the public’s understanding of statistical work and statistical data and promote China statistics to be more open, transparent and better serve the society.

　

　

　　So far, the National Bureau of Statistics has heldThe 11th China Statistics Open Day received great attention from all walks of life, the active participation of the public, and the strong support of statistical institutions at all levels and statisticians. It not only showed the new achievements of China’s statistical reform and development, but also spread statistical knowledge and promoted statistical culture. As a beautiful business card for statistical departments to create sunshine statistics, China Statistics Open Day reflects the attitude of statistical departments to actively adapt to the new situation of China’s economic and social development, open their doors to statistics, and consciously accept social supervision. At the same time, it has become a window to effectively improve statistical ability, statistical data quality and government statistical credibility, and to show the core values of statistics and the mental outlook of statisticians.

China’s Internet Literature： From ＂Cool Literature＂ to ＂One of the Four Cultural Wonders in the World＂

Text/Yangcheng Evening News reporter Sun Lei

site of activity

"I eat tomatoes"

"Squid who loves diving"

On October 12th, China Online Literature Influence List (2022) was released and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Online Literature High-quality Development Seminar was held in Guangzhou. Online literature writers, critics, platform leaders and industry representatives from all over the country gathered together to discuss the present situation and future of online literature.

The event was hosted by the Chinese Writers Association, the Propaganda Department of the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, and co-organized by the Network Literature Center of the Chinese Writers Association, the Guangdong Writers Association and Huacheng College of Literature.

I eat tomatoes, love diving squid, drinkers, bandits, I think about saving and other well-known online writers appeared at the venue, as well as online literary critics, platform leaders, cultural industry representatives from all over the country to participate in the activities.

After 20 or 30 years’ development, the online literature born on the Internet platform has gradually bid farewell to the early state of "barbaric growth and mud and sand", constantly breaking through the typed writing of cool articles and gradually moving towards the mainstream, high-quality and even classic development path. The content ecology of online literature has been further optimized, the trend of high-quality products has become stronger, and the trend of "going out to sea" of online literature has gradually become a scale.

The Realistic Trend of Web Theme: Hi? Worry?

On the evening of October 12th, the China Online Literature Influence List (2022) was officially released. After strict initial evaluation, re-evaluation, final evaluation and online voting by readers, the Network Literature Center of China Writers Association launched four lists: online novel list, IP influence list, overseas communication list and newcomer list, with 29 online literary works and 8 newcomer writers on the list.

The reporter found that in this list of works, the theme structure of online literature is more optimized, and the realistic theme has become the "new favorite" of online texts, and excellent works are frequent. Among the works on the list of online novels, works such as Critical Path and Biography of Shanghai Mortal closely follow the pulse of the times and write about real life.

On April 10th this year, the "Research Report on the Development of Network Literature in China in 2022" issued by the Institute of Literature of China Academy of Social Sciences also pointed out this trend: realistic works entered the "golden age" with a high compound growth rate of 37.2%.

According to Huang Fayou, chairman of Shandong Writers Association and professor of Shandong University College of Literature, the prosperity of online literature’s realistic theme creation is, in a sense, an important manifestation of online literature’s mainstream and high-quality practice. "In recent years, the creation of realistic themes of online literature has made remarkable progress and development, which has injected new vitality into online literature and pushed online literature to break through the bottleneck of development, with a broader vision and a more diverse pattern."

The same theme of reform and opening up, online literature works are not only more vivid, but also more interesting, and there is no lack of depth and temperature. The application of network literature techniques and visual narrative means also brings new aesthetics to the creation of realistic themes. Huang Fayou said that, like "Daguo Heavy Industry", it has a deep understanding of the machinery industry, and is full of respect for the exploration spirit of technicians and the fighting spirit of workers who are not afraid of difficulties. The works have a kind of affectionate power.

Wu Lanqi Muge, an associate professor at the School of Humanities, Wenzhou University, emphasized that the greatest feature of online literature is its freedom, popularity and tradition of telling stories, which allows us to have leisure, entertainment and games, which is a very important reason for its existence. "If all online literature develops to realistic literature or high-quality literature, it will certainly fail to learn from the strengths of traditional literature. Network literature has some reasons for its existence. Among some fantasy, fantasy and story-telling theme types, we can see some innovations in ideological artistry and literature and art that are no less than traditional literature and fine literature. In fact, it already has the advantages and disadvantages of traditional literature. "

In addition to realistic themes, sci-fi works, as one of the most important online categories, are still growing at a high speed. In 2022, "science" appeared nearly 250,000 times in the book review area. In this list of works, "We Live in Nanjing" and "Nomenclature of the Night" have developed gorgeous imagination, written fantastic fables in the vast universe, and explored the boundaries of sci-fi theme creation.

With the development of science and technology and the popularity of sci-fi film and television dramas, the post-90s and post-00s are rapidly pouring into the production and dissemination of sci-fi online literature in the activity field of the Internet, which is naturally labeled as "younger". The "Z generation" writers have gradually become the main creative force, and the newcomers of online writers combine the latest cutting-edge technology to create, bringing a new look and atmosphere to the development of the industry.

"Going out", China traditional culture is sought after.

According to the data released by the Network Literature Center of the Chinese Writers Association, by the end of 2022, the overseas market scale of China’s online literature exceeded 3 billion yuan, with more than 16,000 online works exported overseas, and overseas users exceeded 150 million, covering more than 200 countries and regions in the world.

From 2004, qidian began to sell the copyright of online novels to the whole world, to 2006, the translated works of Ghost Blowing Lights and Zhu Xian opened the Southeast Asian market, and then overseas originality and AI translation were launched, and IP adaptation was popular overseas. China’s online literature has spread all over the world, and some people even listed China’s online literature as "the four cultural wonders of the world" along with Hollywood blockbusters, Japanese anime and Korean TV dramas.

On the overseas communication list published this time, "The Return of the Warrior" triggered readers in more than 170 countries and regions around the world to "catch up" with a compact plot and suspense story lines, with more than 500 million hits; Cosmic Pro combines various elements such as reiki revival, live martial arts broadcast and life evolution, and shows the powerful imagination and narrative power of China’s online literature overseas …

It is worth mentioning that, in the tide of "net writing goes to sea", the works that inherit Chinese excellent traditional culture have made outstanding achievements, attracting many overseas readers, and the international communication effect is outstanding.

According to Tian Zhiguo, deputy editor-in-chief of Reading Group, through investigation, they found that overseas readers like China traditional culture and modern China style. In 2022, China-related words appeared 150,000 times in readers’ comments. In readers’ related discussions, the most mentioned China elements include food, martial arts, tea art and panda.

Tian Zhiguo said that with the continuous going out to sea of online articles, the literary style relying on the Internet has become an important entertainment content in Southeast Asia and North America, which is loved by local young people. "We have opened up localized originality in the local area. The main types of works are 15 categories and more than 100 subcategories, mainly focusing on five major themes: city, game competition, science fiction, oriental fantasy and western fantasy. Many of the oriental fantasy themes are influenced by China’s traditional culture and have a strong Chinese style in theme setting and character setting. "

In recent years, many platforms have made efforts in the direction of audio and short video to promote the spread of China’s online literature overseas. According to Xie Guangcai, director and executive vice president of Chinese Online Group, as far as overseas communication is concerned, the current "ReelShort" short play can be described as a shining star in the European and American markets, and its user scale has developed very rapidly, making it a sample for short plays to go to sea. "The short drama of network development is a good outlet in the current two or three years, but its quality is the top priority of commercial operation."

Tong Ye, CEO of Twitter Technology, said that going out to sea is not just a text going out, but more importantly, letting Chinese culture go out. Xie Sipeng, editor-in-chief of tomato novels, also stressed that both the content and the mode of going out to sea are all China’s online articles going out to sea, and they all bear the mission and heavy responsibility of spreading China culture.

The degree of mainstreaming has increased, and excellent originality is still less.

While the iron is hot, you need to be hard. Whether the theme turns or the online text goes out to sea, high-quality online literature works are needed. This is also the core value of this list release and seminar: focusing on the mainstream and quality creation of online literature.

China’s online literature has been in a state of natural growth for quite a long time since it came into being spontaneously. Internet literature, which was born on the Internet platform, pays too much attention to market efficiency and pursues "fast", "long" and "cool" blindly, resulting in the problems of rough quality, vulgar content and deviation from mainstream values, which can be described as "barbaric growth and mud and sand".

In recent years, with the continuous promotion of the trend of quality content, the mainstream degree of online literature at home and abroad has been significantly improved in 2022: in China, 144 online works have been permanently collected by the National Library, and 10 digital versions of online works have been collected in the China National Edition Museum; Overseas, 16 China websites have been collected by the British Library, and they have spread to more than 200 countries and regions around the world, with 901 million users visiting overseas websites.

"It is necessary to promote the mainstream and quality of online literature innovation." Hu Bangsheng, member of the party group and secretary of the Secretariat of the Chinese Writers Association, observed that there are a large number of online literary works and rich types, but there are still few excellent original contents. He believes that holding an online literary and cultural heritage forum and publishing a list of online novels is to inherit the Chinese context, explore the development path, guide online writers to adhere to the correct creative orientation, and launch more online literary masterpieces.

"Mainstreaming, quality and classicalization are a plan for the whole online literature industry, which requires that online literature must serve this era. This requirement also invisibly constrains the creation of each of our online writers, regardless of personal will." According to Ouyang Youquan, a professor at Central South University, the current development of online literature is facing many changes. With the rise of audio and video industrialization, as the source of content, online literature must produce high-quality texts so that our creation can stand, spread and stay.

Guangdong is one of the cradles of online literature in China, and it is also the province with the largest number of online writers, and many "great god" writers who are famous all over the network have been born. According to Zhang Peizhong, Party Secretary and Full-time Vice Chairman of Guangdong Writers Association, by the end of 2022, there were more than 200,000 online literature writers in Guangdong, including nearly 40,000 people who signed contracts with websites and wrote, and 150 head writers. The number of authors, works and readers ranked among the top in China, with strong development momentum and broad prospects. "We should further strengthen the creation of high-quality products, speed up the IP transformation, increase the online literature’s going to sea, and truly realize the two-way development and two-way empowerment of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area’s online literature and cultural industries", and make Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area an important pole in the development of China’s online literature.

"I eat tomatoes":

Focus on creation, not following the market trend.

Network writer "I eat tomatoes", whose real name is Zhu Hongzhi, is called "tomato". In 2005, he began to serialize The Legend of the Star Peak in qidian, and since then, he has started the journey of online literature creation, and has successively published works such as The Star Change, Panlong, Swallowing the Starry Sky, The Age of the Wild, and The Professional Player of the Universe, breaking many online records.

Among them, Panlong, Swallowing the Starry Sky, Cosmic Professional Player and many other works are also representative works of online writing, which have been translated into English, Korean, Thai, Indonesian and other languages.

Yangcheng Evening News: For you personally, what is the biggest change in online literature over the years?

I eat tomatoes: the external environment has been changing, and we need to adhere to the initial intention of creation while adapting to the environment. Online novels developed vigorously in 2002, and it has been about 20 years now. Its future still has great potential and possibility. All we have to do is write a good story, and your story may spread explosively at the right time. You can’t follow the trend just because of what the market is, like the short video of the fire now, not that you have to do it. Writers still have to concentrate on creation, write a good work, and then wait for the opportunity.

Yangcheng Evening News: Now discussing online literature, many critics have put forward the expectation of "mainstreaming" and "quality". As an online writer, do you want your works to enter the mainstream vision?

I eat tomatoes: the ancients said, "If you take it, you will get it." You can set a high goal and then work hard in this direction. As for the result, I think it will be left to future generations to evaluate.

Yangcheng Evening News: Apart from online literature, have you tried to create more profound and serious literature?

I eat tomatoes: the boundaries of serious literature are actually rather vague. The essence of literature is to convey ideas. If the ideas you convey can still have a good influence on people after a hundred years, then I think your works are excellent literary works, and you are creating with a very serious attitude, which is exactly what I have been pursuing.

Yangcheng Evening News: Where does your creative source come from? What is the creative motivation?

I eat tomatoes: the source of my creation is the bits and pieces in my life, like sometimes looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside, I will conceive a very illusory world in my mind, or watching a news, which will also trigger some associations. These are the sources of creative materials.

If you are motivated to create, I feel that people still have to pursue something, and they can’t live in a daze all the time. I started writing in 2005, and it’s been 18 years now, which is equivalent to doing it all the time during the most creative period. Since this is the most important career in your life, I still hope to create some excellent works. If there are still works that are widely welcomed by readers many years later, it is still a very fulfilling thing for me.

Yangcheng Evening News: In your opinion, how does online literature creation relate to the times?

I eat tomatoes: as a member of society, the author will of course be influenced by various social news when he creates. However, for me personally, there is a certain time difference. Because when I write a novel, it is often long, up to several million words, so before I start writing, I will first determine the outline of the novel, and once it is decided, it will not be easily changed. Just like Jin Yong’s novels, there are many foreshadowing in the early stage, and these foreshadowing have already decided the direction of the later article. So the touch of news events may generally be integrated into the creation of my next work.

Yangcheng Evening News: Do you analyze readers’ preferences when creating?

I eat tomatoes: I may listen to readers’ opinions in the process of preparation, but once I start writing, I will stick to telling the story in my heart. I have written many creative themes, such as Xian Xia, science fiction, magic, city and so on. I like to challenge some unwritten themes, and different attempts are more fresh.

Yangcheng Evening News: What do you think or suggest about China’s online literature going out to sea?

I eat tomatoes: the first step of online literature is translation, so the translator is very important. A good translator should first like the work itself, and then be able to translate it into other languages smoothly. Besides the translator, the original work itself is fundamental. Another is the platform, which needs a suitable platform to spread excellent online literary works and reach overseas readers.

"Squid who loves diving":

Net articles with deep expression will have more audiences.

The online writer "Squid Who Loves Diving", whose real name is vilen, is a signing writer at the starting point and a platinum writer of Reading Group. He has written many online novels, such as "The Record of Death" (formerly known as "The Way to Immortality"), "The Divine Immortal", "The Master of Mysticity" and so on. Among them, the number of hits on the Internet of "The Divine Works of Olympiad Mathematics" exceeded 12 million, ranking first in the list of online novels in China in 2015 by Chinese Writers Association, and winning the first Biennial Award for Excellence in Chinese Online Literature.

He has also won the second "Mao Dun Literature Newcomer Award of Chinese Literature Foundation" and the third "Orange Melon Network Literature Award" and other honors. In 2016, he was elected as the vice chairman of the 8th Sichuan Writers Association. In 2019, he was elected as the chairman of Sichuan Network Writers Association.

Yangcheng Evening News: What do you think of the proposition of "classicalization" of online literature?

Squid who loves diving: I think there may be a long way to go to talk about the "classicalization" of online literature. What we should do first is to make it fine. As a creator, classicalization is definitely an unavoidable desire. But at this stage, as far as I am concerned, I can only say that I am constantly exploring in my own creative field and writing more timeless works, which can be passed down as much as possible.

Yangcheng Evening News: Will deep thoughts conflict with the pursuit of story in online literature?

Squid who loves diving: Not really, because online literature is aimed at hundreds of millions of readers. Some readers prefer relaxed and cool articles, while others want to see some works that can touch people’s hearts and arouse resonance. Network literature can’t please everyone, and it can only attract favorite readers as much as possible in its own field. On this basis, online literature with deep expression will have more audiences in the future.

Yangcheng Evening News: In your opinion, how has online literature changed in the past 20 or 20 years?

Squid who loves diving: the progress of technology has brought many changes to online literature. The earliest online literature was only serialized on the internet, and it was still a literary expression in essence. Later, with the development of technology, the era of mobile internet was ushered in, and many readers used their mobile phones to read books. At this time, as the author of online literature, in order to optimize the mobile phone reading experience, he will try to split long sentences into short sentences and remove large inner monologues. Now, with the assistance of AI, it can help to name the supporting role of the work, and even provide some story outlines, giving some ideas and inspiration. Of course, technology is always only an aid, which cannot replace the uniqueness of human creation, nor can it simulate the inner mental journey of each individual.

Yangcheng Evening News: What changes have you brought by engaging in online literature creation?

Squid who loves diving: I am very grateful to the industry of online literature, which makes me jump out of the established box.
