Environmental protection fashion can’t play high and cold, and everyone loves to wear it to be sustainable.

When "sustainability" and "environmental protection" become one of the hottest topics in the world today, the fashion industry can’t stay out of it. Although environmental protection is a proposition that all mankind should actively respond to, whether to buy and wear environmentally-friendly fashion is purely a personal choice. What kind of environmentally friendly fashion can please most people?

"Useless" implementation of cotton and linen coarse clothes

        At present, designers like Stella McCatney, who are vegetarian, and brands such as MUJI Muji, which focus on pollution-free images, are vigorously practicing environmental protection in the fashion industry. For fashion consumers who don’t like them, this kind of brand with minimalist design looks a bit out of touch, which makes people feel cold and distant.

        What kind of environmentally friendly fashion do you prefer to buy?

        This spring, H&M released a new season’s limited series of environmental conscious actions-this is not a big news. Many people once took a bag of old clothes to H&M’s store, threw them into their white recycling bins, and then exchanged them for a "encouragement" discount coupon, or "accidentally" bought several clothes with green labels at H&M-the reason why this series attracted people’s attention was that. Zhou Xun, Wang Luodan and Eileen were all photographed wearing them to attend activities or even walk the red carpet. They looked very different from the previous "plain-faced" environmentally-friendly fashions. In addition, they were limited series, and many "stars with the same style" were sold out on the day of listing. In fact, the red carpet dress has always been synonymous with "no environmental protection". Those gorgeous and luxurious evening dresses usually exist only for a stunning appearance, and the possibility of being repeatedly worn is almost zero. Fashionable women other than stars will also find that once they wear those party dresses in their closets on major occasions, they will basically be put in the cold. It is imperative for H&M to classify this kind of "disposable" fashion as "environmental conscious action".

H&M’s limited series of environmental conscious actions in the new season
Zhou Xun is dressed in H&M2015 spring environmental conscious action limited series.

        Prior to this, the well-known environmentally-friendly fashions were basically made of natural fiber fabrics, such as cotton, hemp and Tencel. This season, H&M added recycled sequins and beadwork for the first time, which told everyone that environmentally-friendly fashions can also grow secular and lovely. Veronique, the regional sustainable development manager of H&M, told the author that the public has a misunderstanding about environmentally friendly fabrics, thinking that only natural fabrics are environmentally friendly. In fact, things that can be recycled are also true. For example, we started to use recycled polyester fibers to make fluffy skirts last year, like this kind of clothes that need some hardness to support the shape, natural fibers are difficult to do. She also revealed that the brand’s next goal is to gradually dilute the boundary between the "environmental conscious series" and other product lines, and hope to adopt sustainable cotton for clothing in five years, that is to say, any cotton clothing (including jeans) you can buy at H&M at that time will be environmentally friendly fashion. I’m afraid that only brands like H&M can say such a big talk, and Swedish enterprises are indeed in the forefront of the world in environmental protection. Mary Turk, the clothing director of Stadsmission Stockholm, one of the largest second-hand chain retail stores in Stockholm, once expressed her wish to the media: "The so-called sustainable fashion should become a natural and ordinary part of life. When we no longer emphasize this concept, when it is truly integrated into our lives, it is truly recognized. "

        Who should pay for environmental fashion?

        In China, when it comes to environmental protection fashion, the most easily associated brand should be "useless". The founder Ma can promote coarse clothes made of cotton and linen and low-carbon handicrafts from the people with an image similar to that of an ascetic, and advocate "luxury poverty". What is somewhat incompatible with the "useless" simple, natural and original ecological style is its high price. Although it claims to be not a commercial brand, but a "non-profit organization dedicated to the protection of tradition and innovation of traditional folk handicrafts", it makes people wonder whether it intends to persuade everyone to make money to support a "sustainable" brand. Why should buying fashion be equated with doing charity? MUJI, who also advocates high-quality simple living, is obviously much more close to the people in terms of price. Consumers are keen to buy its products, not to show off how rich or tasteful they are (MUJI insisted on not marking the brand LOGO on the products from the beginning), but to figure out its humanized design and soft and comfortable texture, especially cotton and linen products. MUJI claims that he will go to the farm in person to communicate with the producers and use the safe and healthy cotton cultivated in the soil without pesticides and chemical fertilizers for more than three years, but it will not increase the price of the products. As one of the earliest brands that started to use organic cotton, MUJI started with baby products, and then went to underwear. Since 2010, it has been fully promoted to all product lines, and consumers may not know these things unless they ask the shop assistants or land in official website.Because MUJI did not pass on these organic cotton from India, Turkey and Tanzania as extra costs to consumers.

        It is even more impossible for brands like H&M to use eco-fashion as a marketing gimmick to raise the price (their eco-conscious action series is priced the same as other series), because their consumers are particularly sensitive to the price. Then, how are these increased costs from recycling old clothes, recycling materials, treating polluted water, and researching and developing environmental protection materials digested? Julian, the sustainable supply chain manager of H&M, said that as pioneers of cheap and fast fashion brands, they always know how to control costs. Although the income and expenditure are not balanced at present, environmental protection is a must, so they can only find ways to make environmental protection less boring. The more people are willing to consume environmental fashion in the future, the more motivated they will be to increase investment and drive the whole industry to become sustainable.

MUJI MUJI has promoted organic cotton to various product lines.

Covering an area of 100,000 mu, the largest photovoltaic sand control project in China was successfully connected to the grid.

  People’s Daily, Beijing, December 5 (Reporter Wang Hao) The reporter learned from China Three Gorges Group Co., Ltd.: Recently, one of the first batch of large-scale wind power photovoltaic base projects started construction during the 14 th Five-Year Plan period, the largest photovoltaic sand control project in China — — The 2 million kilowatts photovoltaic sand control project in Kubuqi, Mengxi base, was successfully connected to the grid.

Birds are also "not suitable for travel" on windy days. When farmers in Beijing patrol the fields, they witnessed magpies being blown down by strong winds and affecting farmland life.

From 11: 00 to 12: 00 on April 12, gusts in some areas of Beijing reached 9-11, and even reached 14 in mountainous areas. Meteorological stations with wind speeds above 10 are distributed in Haidian, Chaoyang, Fengtai, Tongzhou, Fangshan, Changping, Huairou, Pinggu, Mentougou, Yanqing and Shunyi. Despite the strong winds, farmers in farmland, cooperatives and peach groves in the suburbs of Beijing are still busy.

Birds are also "not suitable for travel" on windy days. When farmers in Beijing patrol the fields, they witness magpies being blown off by the strong wind.

On the evening of April 11th, some areas in Pinggu were hit by hail weather, which worried the peach farmers. Tangtang runs a cooperative in Pinggu. When the hail came, she took a video with her mobile phone and recited the big peaches at home. Fortunately, the hail didn’t last long. The next morning, Tangtang went to Taolin to check the situation of big peaches and found that many peaches were blown off.

Qu Haiquan, 65, has planted big peaches for decades. In Xiagezhuang Town where he lives, there is only strong wind and no hail. His family has 70 acres of big peaches, most of which are planted in the open air and a few in greenhouses. The peaches in the greenhouse will be harvested soon, while those in the open air will wait until June. Qu Haiquan is full of confidence in the newly introduced detached peaches and nectarines. He said that peaches are not afraid of strong winds, but they are afraid of hail and cold spring. He thinks that the strong wind has little effect on peaches.

Peach blossoms in Pinggu are in full bloom. Will this strong wind affect flower viewing? A peach farmer said that his peaches were not sparse this year. When he checked in the morning, he found that all the flowers were blown off, and other flowers were still on the trees, so the impact of strong winds was limited. Peach blossoms in Pinggu are still tenacious and swaying in the wind.

On the short video platform, some peach farmers took netizens to enjoy flowers through live broadcast. The pink peach blossoms in the picture are swaying in the wind and full of vitality. There are also peach farmers selling agricultural products live in cooperatives or greenhouses.

Yang Yang, the head of Tongzhou Houyuanhua Ecological Picking Garden, has been busy in the garden. The strong wind blew up the quilt on the greenhouse, and the plastic film in some greenhouses was also blown away, and the green leafy vegetables inside swayed with the wind. Yang Yang was busy delivering goods to customers while contacting the insurance company to check the greenhouse situation.

In special weather, farmers are concerned about crops. Zhang Haiying, a big planter in Shexian Town, Tongzhou District, went to inspect the field early and found that the wind was very strong in the field, but the wheat seedlings were not fully jointing and the plants were short, which would not cause lodging. She mentioned that if there is such a strong wind again after mid-May, it may not work. When she was patrolling the field, she also saw a magpie spinning and falling by the strong wind.

A number of important achievements have been made in discipline construction in China, and the overall level has been improved.

  editorial comment/note

  With the outline of the national long-term scientific and technological development plan (2006— With the implementation of "2020)", China’s investment in scientific research and discipline construction is increasing, the pace of development is obviously accelerated, the innovation ability is gradually improved, and its international influence is expanding day by day. A series of reports on discipline development research issued by China Association for Science and Technology (2014— 2015) shows that in recent years, China’s discipline construction has achieved a number of important achievements, the overall level has been greatly improved, and many key scientific and technological indicators have entered the forefront of the world. We are changing the world R&D pattern.

  In the 21st century, the rapid development of the new scientific and technological revolution has promoted the intersection, integration, infiltration, differentiation and development of disciplines, and given birth to new major breakthroughs.

  In recent years, China’s investment in discipline construction has been increasing, the discipline development environment has been continuously optimized, the discipline team has been growing, the discipline platform construction has been improved, and international cooperation and exchanges have been strengthened, which has effectively promoted the development of discipline construction and scientific research, and the basic disciplines and applied disciplines have also been continuously improved and developed. The innovation bred by interdisciplinary integration is gradually changing the discipline structure.

  1. Significant achievements in discipline research.

  Since the 21st century, the number of international scientific papers published by scientists in China has shown an alarming growth rate, which has aroused widespread concern in the international scientific and technological circles, which also reflects the development trend of various disciplines in China.

  Extended version of the Web of Science Science Index of Thomson Technology Group — — ESI database divides all natural science fields into 22: clinical medicine, chemistry, physics, biology and biochemistry, molecular biology and genetics, neuroscience and behavior, materials science, engineering science, botany and zoology, environmental ecology science, immunology, pharmacology and toxicology, earth science, neurology and psychology, agricultural science, microbiology, space science, computer science and so on.

  From 2005 — According to the data in 2015, some disciplines in China are already in the leading position in the world and have strong influence in the world. High-quality research achievements in 22 disciplines in China have increased significantly, among which the number of international scientific papers published in chemistry, physics, engineering science, material science and clinical medicine has exceeded 100,000, especially in chemistry, reaching more than 300,000; In addition, the achievements in the fields of biology and biochemistry, earth science and computer science are also very impressive. Among the 22 disciplines, China has the highest number of "articles are cited" in many disciplines, which is 18.63; Followed by molecular biology and genetics, with 11.55.

  As of 2015, from the ranking of the number of published papers, 17 of the 22 disciplines in China are in the top five in the world, among which, China’s chemistry and materials science ranks first in the world.

  In addition, the proportion of periodical papers published in the field of system science and system engineering in China increased from 23.5% in 2010 to 32.1% in 2015, making it the leading country in this field in the world.

  At the same time, China’s frontier subject papers have made great achievements. In October 2015, the Literature and Information Center of Chinese Academy of Sciences and Thomson Reuters, an international professional information service provider, released the report "Research Frontier in 2015", which showed that China had core papers in 82 frontier disciplines, and the number of core papers in 16 frontier disciplines was the first. This shows that China has a strong frontier contribution and ranks among the world’s advanced in some important frontier disciplines.

  In addition, the report also shows that there are 38 frontier disciplines in China, with 133, 68, 55 and 29 in the United States, Britain, Germany and Japan respectively. The 16 frontier disciplines in China ranked first in the number of core papers are from the fields of chemistry and materials science, physics, mathematics, computer science and engineering, agriculture, botany and zoology, biological science and earth science.

  Among them, in the field of chemistry and materials science, China’s contribution to frontier disciplines exceeds that of the United States. Among the 19 frontier disciplines in this field, China ranks first in the number of core papers among the 9 frontier disciplines, and the United States has 7.

  2. The application trend of basic research is obvious.

  In recent years, the application trend of some basic research in China is obvious. The transformation period of basic research results is shortened, and the boundary between basic research and applied research is increasingly blurred.

  For example, in the field of mathematics, the numerical solution of developmental partial differential equations has become a rapidly developing discipline in the field of applied mathematics, and it has important applications in aerospace, electromagnetism, petroleum exploration, semi-conductor device simulation, water pollution treatment, ocean and meteorology. The research on numerical simulation methods of these mathematical and physical equations belongs to the frontier research field of science and engineering calculation, and the design, analysis and application of high-order precision numerical algorithms for these problems have always been a challenging topic.

  From the specific disciplines, basic disciplines such as biology, life science, chemistry and earth science have made remarkable progress in the application of basic research.

  Take the "973" project with Zhao Guoping, the chief expert of Shanghai Academy of Life Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, as an example. Focusing on the key scientific issues and related technical difficulties such as the design principle, synthesis and assembly, module construction, standardized library building and integration and adaptation mechanism in chassis cells, this project focuses on the artificial heterologous synthesis of terpenoids, and has made some important progress, especially in the important medicinal and edible terpenoids such as rare ginsenoside CK, stevioside and tanshinone precursor rust alcohol. In addition, significant progress has been made in the mining and synthesis technology innovation of component modules.

  The application of synthetic biology technology in tumor research is just beginning at home and abroad. The "973" project "Basic research of synthetic biological devices in bladder cancer intervention", headed by Professor Cai Zhiming of Shenzhen University, applied synthetic biology technology in tumor treatment research on the basis of system biology. The project discovered some key genes and pathways of bladder cancer, and based on the analysis of relevant gene network information, the quantitative controllable engineering system was used to characterize the commonness of complex events in the occurrence and development of bladder cancer, and many potential compound targets for bladder cancer identification and treatment were excavated.

  In physics, near-field optical tweezers is a new technology based on near-field optical theory, which can capture and manipulate particles stably. Compared with the traditional far-field optical tweezers based on single beam gradient force, near-field optical tweezers overcome the limitations of optical resolution diffraction limit and thermal effect, and can capture and manipulate nano-sized particles. Optical tweezers are widely used in biology, physics and chemistry because of their unique non-contact and non-destructive characteristics, especially in biology, which has been used to study cells, viruses, bacteria and DNA molecules.

  In chemistry, with the development of strategic emerging industries in China, new materials have become a hot research direction in recent years. By exploring the properties of different kinds of materials, practical problems encountered in production and life can be solved. Supercapacitor is a new type of energy storage element between traditional capacitor and chemical power supply. It has the advantages of short charging time, long cycle life, good power characteristics, wide temperature range, economy and environmental protection, and has been widely concerned in many fields. The development trend of electrode materials mainly has two directions: compounding materials, using the synergistic effect between different materials, compounding and doping between different materials, in order to obtain electrode materials with excellent performance; Nanometer materials not only have high specific surface area, but also can improve the transmission and diffusion paths of electrons and ions, thus improving the electrode performance.

  In addition, China has accumulated a lot in some important frontier fields of basic research, and has also bred new breakthroughs in application, such as dark matter, discovery of new particles and survey of the sky in Hanoi, which is expected to deepen human understanding of the universe and then play an important role in human space exploration; In the fields of high temperature superconductivity and topological insulators, quantum memory, quantum regulation, mesoscale science, etc., it is expected to explore and discover new physical and chemical principles and produce application value; In the research fields of synthetic biology and brain science, it is possible to explore the origin of life and innovate scientific thinking methods.

  3. The growth rate of disciplines related to people’s livelihood.

  The development of information science and technology is in the ascendant, and it is the leading force of sustained economic growth; The rapid development of life science and biotechnology plays a key role in improving and improving the quality of human life; Energy science and technology continue to heat up, opening up new ways to solve energy problems; The rapid growth of new achievements in the field of environmental protection provides new solutions to environmental problems. Science and technology related to people’s livelihood have been vigorously developed, and the speed of application and transformation of science and technology has been accelerating.

  Taking Chinese medicine as an example, Chinese medicine is a unique health resource in China and an important national industry, which is of great significance in the overall economic and social development. Historical reasons and the complexity of traditional Chinese medicine itself restrict the varieties of traditional Chinese medicine to become bigger and stronger. The secondary development of traditional Chinese medicine has led the innovative development direction of traditional Chinese medicine industry, promoted the technological upgrading of traditional Chinese medicine industry, played a significant role in ensuring the success of medical reform in China and promoting the development of biomedical industry, and produced significant economic and social benefits.

  For example, around the great demand of making Chinese patent medicines bigger and stronger, and promoting the transformation of Chinese traditional medicine industry to science, technology, efficiency and economy, the research group of Academician Zhang Boli of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine took the lead in putting forward the research strategy of secondary development of Chinese patent medicines. After theoretical innovation, technical breakthrough and popularization and application, five core technical systems, such as accurate clinical positioning of Chinese patent medicines, systematic analysis of pharmacodynamic substances, network pharmacology, process quality optimization and digital whole-process quality control, were established, and a secondary development model of Chinese patent medicines was formed, which effectively promoted the technological upgrading of Chinese traditional medicine industry and enabled Chinese medicines to be upgraded. The project has completed the secondary development of 32 varieties of Chinese patent medicines, and the number of varieties with sales exceeding 100 million yuan has increased from 3 to 12. The project technology has been promoted in many places across the country and applied to nearly 100 Chinese medicine enterprises.

  4. Interdisciplinary integration breeds innovation.

  Interdisciplinary integration is the source of innovation. The intersection and integration of disciplines is often the frontier of innovation, which leads to major scientific discoveries and the emergence of emerging disciplines. At present, many disciplines are committed to cultivating the awareness of interdisciplinary integration, exploring effective ways of interdisciplinary integration, stimulating innovation vitality, improving innovation quality and comprehensively enhancing innovation ability.

  Biomedical interdisciplinary subjects are constantly exploring and deepening in frontier fields. For example, Professor Wang Xiaoying from the Imaging Department of the First Hospital of Peking University, Zhou Diange’s research team from the Department of Orthopaedics of Peking University People’s Hospital and Zhang Jue’s research team from the Peking University Biomedical Interdisciplinary Research Center cooperated closely to innovatively develop a new type of flexible coil, which provided a brand-new idea for the design and imaging of magnetic resonance radio frequency coil and non-invasive perfusion functional imaging of lower limbs.

  In recent years, China’s frontier interdisciplinary subjects have effectively promoted the system construction, discipline construction and team construction of disciplines in China by exploring the innovation of scientific research and management mechanism, promoting the construction of basic conditions, recruiting and introducing outstanding scientific research talents, and organizing academic exchanges and research project applications.

  Under the framework of the Frontier Interdisciplinary Research Institute, each research unit, based on its own existing conditions and facing the development of science and technology and the needs of the country and society, organized multidisciplinary research forces to carry out research on frontier issues and tackle key problems in science and technology, won the support of various interdisciplinary research projects, and achieved some important research results.

Take multiple measures to ensure children’s medical needs. Covid-19 infection in China is at a low epidemic level

CCTV News:Recently, there has been cooling and snowfall in many parts of the country, and children’s respiratory diseases are in the high season. What is the overall situation of pediatric medical resources in the national maternal and child health care system? What matters should be paid attention to in children’s home care? The National Health and Wellness Commission held a press conference on the 17th to respond to concerns about the prevention and treatment of respiratory diseases in winter.

According to reports, as children’s respiratory diseases enter a period of high incidence, the National Health and Health Commission has made overall plans to guide and promote maternal and child health care institutions at all levels to expand capacity and increase efficiency, and fully protect children’s medical needs: expand pediatric service resources, guide maternal and child health care institutions to strengthen personnel deployment, and meet children’s medical needs to the maximum extent; Optimize the spatial layout and treatment process, promote the pre-diagnosis inspection service, smooth the green channel for emergency treatment, and gradually realize the grading and stratification of children’s treatment; Promote the "internet plus" service, and reduce the pressure of offline medical treatment through online outpatient follow-up, online prescription, and logistics and delivery of drugs to the home.

At the present stage, China has strengthened children’s health guidance in combination with children’s health care services, continuously increased the popularization of popular science, and provided targeted technical guidance to kindergartens, primary and secondary schools and other institutions with a large number of children to prevent the occurrence of clustered diseases. In response to the problem of home care for children that parents are generally concerned about, industry insiders said that parents should choose to rest at home or seek medical treatment in time according to the changes of children’s condition, do not enter the park or attend classes with illness, and avoid taking antibacterial drugs for their children.

Lu Gen, Director of Respiratory Department of Guangzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Guangdong Province:Attention should be paid to the interaction of drugs. Do not take antipyretics and compound cold medicines containing antipyretic and analgesic at the same time. At the same time, avoid using Chinese patent medicines with the same function and overlapping components, which will increase the risk of adverse drug reactions. After children get sick, they should choose to rest at home or seek medical treatment in time according to their illness. It is not recommended to enter the park or attend classes, so as to avoid cross-infection.

Chang Zhaorui, a researcher at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of China, said that Covid-19 infection in China is at a low epidemic level, and the BA.2.86 mutant and its subfamilies in Covid-19 account for a relatively low proportion. At present, the public health risk of this mutant in China is low. So far, no unknown new viruses and bacteria have been found in the pathogen monitoring of respiratory diseases in China.

  On October 2, 2022, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader wrote back to all geologists of the Sixth Geological Brigade of Shandong Bureau of Geology and Minerals, and raised ardent expectations for them to carry forward their fine traditions and do a good job in mineral exploration, encouraging them to strive to write a new chapter in the "heroic geological team".

  Take up your bags and go to the world, and walk all over the mountains before you see gold. Our reporter went to Weihai, Shandong Province, and approached the Sixth Geological Brigade, recording the exploration stories of the team members who waded through mountains and rivers, slept in the wind, and overcame difficulties and the extraordinary course of prospecting for the country, and felt the fine tradition of patriotic dedication, pioneering and innovative, and hard struggle … …

  — — Editor

  Shixian Li, an 86-year-old former deputy chief engineer of the Sixth Geological Brigade of Shandong Bureau of Geology and Minerals, opened a drawer and took out a People’s Daily dated October 5, 2022. He read it word by word. "I read the reply from the General Secretary again and again, and I was very excited and encouraged … …” Shixian Li said.

  Since its establishment in 1958, it has completed drilling footage of more than 5 million meters, equivalent to the height of more than 600 Mount Everest. Accumulated proven gold resources are more than 2,810 tons, making it the geological team with the most gold prospecting in China; In 1992, he was awarded the honorary title of "Heroic Geological Team with Outstanding Achievements and Selfless Dedication" by the State Council … … Close the newspaper, Shixian Li talked about the glorious course of Team Six.

  Searching for gold to serve the country and breaking the traditional prospecting model

  ■ The first super-large altered rock type gold deposit in China has been found.

  Shandong Jiaodong Zhaoyuan, known as "Jincheng Tianfu", has a local folk song: "The golden mule goes, the mill turns, and all it grinds is Jin Doudou." Legend has it that it’s not easy to get "Jin Doudou", you have to open the mountain gate first. In 1958, a 94-member exploration team advanced to Zhaoyuan and took the first step in searching for gold for the country. This team is the predecessor of the Sixth Team.

  In 1960, Shixian Li graduated from the Geology Department of Shandong University, and was assigned to the Sixth Team, just in time for the "General Prospecting War". During the day, the team members searched for clues, leveled alleys and dug shallow wells, and at night, they spread hay, paved the floor and made plans. Shixian Li made up his mind: We must dig up several "Jin Doudou" for our country!

  At the beginning of the construction of the team, the members of the sixth team just circled in the gold-bearing quartz vein type gold mine. "At that time, by foreign experts ‘ The large fault zone only guides ore but does not store it ’ Because of the influence of the conclusion, we regard the great fault zone as a restricted area for prospecting, and have never ‘ Step beyond the line ’ 。” Shixian Li said.

  Are there any other types of large gold deposits? On the coast of Bohai Sea and Laizhou Bay, there is a small island surrounded by water on three sides — — Sanshan island. Stepping on a foot thick snow and facing the biting cold wind, the six team members went to Sanshan Island; After sampling and testing, it is found that there is a new type of gold mine here — — Altered rock type gold deposit in fracture zone.

  This is a great discovery! "For this discovery, the members of the six teams fought bravely, and even some members gave their precious lives." Shixian Li said.

  In 1966, Zhang Yuzhi was appointed as the technical director of Sanshan Island regional census, when he had just undergone major lung surgery. Every morning, he waded through the water island to select points and take samples, and at dusk, he returned with his ore on his back … … The leader of the unit was afraid that his body could not stand it and wanted to transfer him back to the office, but Zhang Yuzhi chose to stick to it: "The country asked us to find gold. How can we find it when people are not in the wild?" At the last moment of his life, he put on hiking shoes and walked around the ward until he never stood up again.

  On the basis of general survey and exploration, the mining exploration report compiled by Zhang Yuzhi passed the evaluation, and the first super-large altered rock type gold deposit in China was found! "This discovery has broken the traditional prospecting model." Shixian Li said, "Soon, we found a super-large Jiaojia gold mine in the middle of another fault zone; I touched Xincheng Gold Mine, Matang Gold Mine and Dongji Gold Mine. "

  Finding the mine is only the first step. The team members feel that it is an urgent task to analyze and summarize the theory of new types of gold deposits and guide gold exploration. In 1971, the team set up a comprehensive geological research group, which was headed by Shixian Li. One day in 1976, in a small farmhouse, Shixian Li got together with his team members to discuss … …

  "If the gold mine is found, you must first name it." Shixian Li said. "There are Carlin-type gold mines and Rand-type gold mines abroad. Why can’t we call them Jiaojia-type?" "You must put ‘ Broken zone ’ Crown, this is the main feature … …”

  Everyone said a word to me, and finally determined the name of the mine. In 1977, at the Second National Gold Geology Conference, "Jiaojia-style altered rock gold deposit in fracture zone" was officially named and established. In 1985, the project achievement of Team Six, Discovery of Jiaojia New Type Gold Deposit and Its Outstanding Prospecting Effect, won the first National Science and Technology Progress Award.

  Be brave in pioneering and March towards the depths of the earth.

  ■ "Five Golden Flowers" such as Sizhuang and Jiaojia bloom for the second time.

  In the history of gold exploration, "five golden flowers" are famous far and near. This "golden flower" is not a woman, but a genuine "golden flower".

  In 2003, Wang Qihong, the twelfth captain of the Sixth Team, took office. Before leaving, Wang Qihong, who was usually taciturn, uttered a few words: "Thank you to the Party Committee of the Bureau for giving me this burden. If there is a ladder to the sky, I can take this team to reach for the moon!"

  "malicious words" have been released, but the problem is in front of us! In the past, prospecting was within 500 meters below the surface, but now the surface mines and shallow mines have basically been developed. What should we do next? Looking for minerals deep in the earth, this is the only way out!

  With the support of the Provincial Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources, the battle headquarters with Wang Qihong as the chief commander was established, and the technical backbone was selected to form a project team. In the first month of 2005, the sky was full of snow, and the drums of the "Sizhuang Battle" were drumming, and the six teams were ready to go, heading for the underground kilometer. Some people have questioned that it is impossible to form a large mine here because of its "thin ore body, low grade, small scale and deep burial". Wang Qihong insisted: "We must break through!"

  Jiang Hongli, the technical director of the project, locked himself in the headquarters, repeatedly looked at the drawings, turned over the exploration and mining data and analyzed the deep structural changes. After repeated deliberation, he improved the construction scheme, and made two exploratory drilling holes in the most likely ore-seeing part.

  A hole, a dozen is 2 months, thousands of meters. The first drill hit the gold as I wished; The second drill saw a good mine, and its grade and thickness were unexpected. In the end, 52 boreholes were drilled, with a penetration of more than 40,000 meters, and the proven resources of Sizhuang Gold Mine were 51.83 tons, with a potential economic value of more than 8 billion yuan. The first "Golden Flower" was born in Sizhuang, which is the first super-large deep gold mine in China.

  Will there be a miracle in the deep part of Jiaojia in the north of Sizhuang? Wang Qihong decided to try. With the experience of Sizhuang and the technical scheme, Jiaojia’s deep exploration was "pleasantly surprised" at the beginning, but when drilling the fourth hole, something worrying happened: no mine was hit.

  The headquarters froze up and down … … Wang Qihong called a meeting of technicians to organize discussions, and various technical means of geological and geophysical exploration went into battle. Everyone made a bold guess: this buried "golden flower" may be dumbbell-shaped.

  Sure enough, when the drilling went to the eighth drill, we finally found the "dumbbell handle" in the depth of 1000 meters. At the moment when the core at the expected mine site was taken up, the young team member Bao Zhongyi rushed forward and excitedly brushed away the dust on the rock: Ming Jin Shanshan shines!

  The test results made everyone jump for joy: the highest gold grade was 110.04g/ton. During the deep exploration in Jiaojia, the Sixth Team finally discovered 105 tons of gold resources, with a potential economic value of more than 20 billion yuan. Subsequently, Zhu Guo, Li Jia, Sha Ling, Qian Chen and other "three golden flowers" bloomed for the second time … …

  Pass from generation to generation, follow the footsteps of our predecessors

  ■ Establish four provincial and ministerial innovation platforms and six high-level scientific and technological talent innovation teams.

  Fan Jiameng, the "three generations of the earth", followed his grandfather and uncle to the mountains when he was a child, fiddling with compasses and waving hammers. Xiao Jiameng often thought, "When can I find treasures?" After graduating from college, Fan Jiameng joined the Sixth Team. Looking forward to it is beautiful, but it is really on the road to finding gold. He played a "retreat" … …

  In 2012, Fan Jiameng was sent to Xinjiang for exploration. Trekked more than 3,000 kilometers and arrived at Lop Nur Town Transfer Station. "On that day, the temperature was MINUS 20 degrees Celsius, and we were at ‘ Diwozi ’ I stayed up all night. " Fan Jiameng said that that night, he stayed up all night looking at the leaking roof, the uneven ground and the floor covered with debris … …

  Arriving at the project site the next day, Fan Jiameng stood on the Gobi Desert, listening to the wind, looking at the dust all over the sky, without a trace of green, and several empty iron houses trembled in the wind! Fan Jiameng’s mood is very low: "I want to pick a load!"

  Once, his mother called him and said sadly, "Why don’t you tell the team to go back to Shandong and go out in the wild?" Unexpectedly, grandpa’s yelling came from the other end of the phone: "Do you think geological exploration is for fun? If you can’t eat this bitterness, don’t come to the sixth team! " Mother didn’t dare to speak any more, but after a few words of comfort, she hung up the phone … …

  "At the beginning is blunt ‘ Hero Geological Team ’ Come, then retreat is not a joke? " Fan Jiameng calmed down and remembered his grandfather’s words: "Choosing geology means choosing to be with hardship and be at home in the world;" Choosing six teams is choosing responsibility. " Fan Jiameng stayed, and 10 months later they completed the exploration project of Lop Nur.

  In order to pave the way for young scientific and technological talents to become talents, Team Six has established four provincial and ministerial innovation platforms and six high-level scientific and technological talents innovation teams. In the exploration battle of Shuiwangzhuang mining area, the youth geological project team was established in the team, and Fan Jiameng bravely took the lead and became the person in charge. Aiming at the problem that core sampling in the fractured zone is easy to damage the drill bit, their team invented and introduced innovative technologies such as "bending-proof drilling tool", "drag reduction inner pipe" and "hydraulic cutter".

  Even with the new technology, the construction period is still urgent. They compare the progress of the project every day, find problems and think about countermeasures. One day, there was a heavy rain, and the office was blacked out, so candles could only be used for lighting; The candlelight jumped, reflecting the faces of several young people. When the statistics of the engineering quantity of the day were completed, it was sunny and sunny, and the stars were all over the sky. Eating instant noodles and looking at the starry sky, Fan Jiameng muttered, "I miss the steaming steamed buns of my mother."

  After exploration, Shuiwangzhuang mining area has discovered a total of 186 tons of gold resources, which is the largest gold deposit discovered in Zhaoping fault zone so far. Zhaoping fault zone has thus become the third thousand-ton ore-controlling fault zone in China.

  Go abroad and join in the construction of the "Belt and Road"

  ■ In Team Six, everyone is good.

  In recent years, the Sixth Team has shouldered the mission entrusted by the state and helped the countries along the Belt and Road to achieve a breakthrough in prospecting. We’re leaving again! Before leaving, Zhang Peng’s wife always felt that she didn’t bring enough things, so she bought him new shoes, socks and water cups early. "I will go to Sudan next week, and it will be half a year before we meet again." Zhang Peng said.

  In 2012, Zhang Peng followed the team to Tajikistan. The mining area is located in Pamirs, which is nearly 4000 meters above sea level. The first difficulty is to overcome altitude sickness. Oxygen is thin, Zhang Peng is always flustered and short of breath, nosebleeds flow intermittently, and his lips are cracked … …

  The temperature in the plateau is low. Every October, the mountains are closed by heavy snow, and the draught has become a problem. You can only smash ice cubes and use the stove to make water. Cooking on the plateau, steamed bread is not ripe, bite sticky, eat a steamed bun even for the New Year. "Knock around with a hammer and take a bunch of samples back. The shoes and trousers are worn out and can only be mended by themselves." Zhang Peng recalled.

  Loneliness is the most unbearable. "In a deserted place, it is a surprise to hear wolves barking!" Zhang Peng said that he was afraid of his family’s worries, and told his wife that his job was like a tour of the mountains and waters, which was a "pulse" for the earth. The wife complained, "Going abroad ‘ Take a pulse ’ , why so long? " Zhang Peng said, "This is a national event, and we must do our best." Finally, through core comparison, the team explored the prospecting idea of gently inclined ore bodies and completed the task ahead of schedule.

  In 2021, Zhang Peng became the head of Sudan Project Department. Slowly, the wife understood that the husband’s job is to travel through mountains and rivers, not to travel around. "Only when the country is rich and strong, and the six teams are stable, our small family will be happy." The wife said.

  "On Team Six, everyone is good." Ding Zhengjiang, the captain of the Sixth Team, said, "The road ahead is long, and we should carry forward ‘ Hero Geological Team ’ Fine traditions, and strive to explore big gold mines for the country. "

  ■ Reporter’s Notes

  Adhering to the heart of serving the country by geology

  Mount Everest, more than 8000 meters above sea level, is an unattainable height for many people. During the interview, a set of figures was shocking: "Since its establishment in 1958, the six teams have identified more than 2,810 tons of gold resources and completed drilling footage of more than 5 million meters, which is equivalent to drilling through more than 600 Mount Everest!"

  This set of figures is the result of the blood and sweat of the six teams. In the early days of the founding of New China, the older generation of prospectors set foot on the road of searching for gold … … For the cause of the motherland, they neglected their families, paid precious youth, and some even gave their lives.

  After more than 60 years of hurricane and rain, some of the first generation explorers of the Sixth Team have passed away, but the spirit of faith, concentration on prospecting for mines and sincere service to the country is still passed on. They are full of blood, pack up their bags, climb mountains and follow the footsteps of their predecessors … …

  In the interview, the words of an old comrade impressed the reporter: "Gold is not full of red, but the heart of a child is full of red." Faith can move mountains. It’s a long way to find gold. I hope the Sixth Team will carry forward the past and carry forward the cause, uphold the spirit of serving the country by geology, and strive to write a new chapter of "Hero Geological Team" in the new round of breakthrough in prospecting.

Running away from home, sleeping on the streets, India’s rich second generation wandering and working "not fighting for dad"

  BEIJING, Nov. 8 (Xinhua)-According to a comprehensive report, the 19-year-old son of an oil dealer in Padra, India, didn’t like studying, so he left home for nearly a month to prove his potential. When the police finally found him, they found the young man wandering around and working, and even sleeping on the street.

  According to the report, this young man named Taka grew up with a golden spoon and is a student of Wassad Engineering College.

  On October 14th, he left his hometown of Padra and said that he was going to school. However, Taka did not go to school, but went to Vadodara Railway Station, where he took the train to Delhi and lost contact with his family.

The picture was taken from The Times of India.

  The picture was taken from The Times of India.

  The family found that he had left his mobile phone at home, and there was no news for a long time, so he called the police. The police searched for Taka’s whereabouts according to the surveillance video, but never found his whereabouts.

  The case seems hopeless, and the police almost want to give up looking for Taka.

  On November 4th, local time, Taka decided to go to an upscale hotel in Simla to look for a job.

  The manager of this hotel found that Taka’s face was immature and his clothes were not ordinary, so he doubted Taka’s identity and immediately called the police.

  When the police found Taka, they found him sleeping on the street, then asked him to show his identity document and confirmed that he was Taka who had been missing for nearly a month, so they quickly informed Taka’s family to reunite with him.

  When Taka’s family heard the news, they immediately came to Simla to reunite with Taka. Taka’s uncle Ketan said that now the whole family finally breathed a sigh of relief. "We have been having a hard time."

  It is reported that Taka chose to run away from home because he didn’t like his school and didn’t like studying. He had been to Mumbai, Delhi and Sutela and worked everywhere to make a living. It is said that during Taka’s wandering, he worked as a dishwasher in a road restaurant and a clerk in a small shop.

People first, unity is strength, flood control and disaster relief visit Meteorological behavior in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in heavy rain.

  Since July 4th, a new round of persistent heavy rainfall has been affecting the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River from the eastern part of southwest China, which has the characteristics of stable rain belt, long duration, large accumulated rainfall and high disaster risk.

  The water level of the river is high, can it withstand this round of rainfall? How do large-scale water conservancy projects and reservoirs in the Yangtze River basin respond to the flood challenge? Adhere to the people first, life first, and implement the spirit of the important instructions of the Supreme Leader General Secretary on flood control and disaster relief work with practical actions. The China Meteorological Bureau comprehensively judged the flood control situation and launched a three-level emergency response. The Central Meteorological Observatory issued the first orange rainstorm warning this year at 18: 00 on the 7 th. Meteorological departments in areas affected by heavy rainfall such as Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Anhui, Shanghai and Zhejiang closely monitored the changes of rain, water and public opinion, strengthened the joint defense of up and down linkage, and effectively played the first line of defense for meteorological disaster prevention and mitigation.

  Hubei: scientifically dispatching flood interception and peak clipping

  Multiple rounds of rainstorm, multi-station water level exceeding the police, and long-term wandering of rain belt … Affected by heavy rainfall, the inflow of water in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, Wujiang River and the Three Gorges area increased significantly, and the inflow of the Three Gorges Reservoir rose rapidly. At 10: 00 on July 2, the inflow rose to 50,000 cubic meters per second, and the No.1 flood of the Yangtze River in 2020 was formed in the upper reaches.

  On July 3rd, the Yangtze River Basin Meteorological Center held a tripartite federation chamber of commerce with the Three Gorges Cascade Dispatching Center and the Hydrology and Water Resources Survey Bureau in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. According to the consultation, considering flood control safety and navigation demand, the Yangtze River Water Conservancy Commission issued a dispatching order to temporarily reduce the outflow of the Three Gorges Reservoir to 30,000 cubic meters per second from 6: 00 on the 5th, and evacuate some ships stranded in the Three Gorges-Gezhouba section in time to ensure navigation safety. At 16: 00 on the 5th, the outflow of the Three Gorges Reservoir was restored to 35,000 cubic meters per second. At the same time, Xiluodu Hydropower Station, Xiangjiaba Reservoir and cascade reservoirs in the middle reaches of Jinsha River were dispatched to simultaneously increase the impoundment, moderately reduce the inflow of the Three Gorges, and jointly reduce the flood control pressure in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

  "Accurate rain and water regime forecasting provides a decision-making basis for the scientific operation of lakes and reservoirs in the Yangtze River basin." Tian Gang, deputy director of the hydrometeorological forecasting station of the Meteorological Center of the Yangtze River Basin, said that since the flood season, the precipitation in the Yangtze River Basin has been generally high, especially in the northern part of the middle and lower reaches. The falling area has a large swing from north to south, a wide range of heavy rainfall, high rainfall intensity and obvious local floods. By scientifically dispatching the Three Gorges Reservoir to intercept floods and cut peaks, the peak-cutting rate of the No.1 flood in 2020 is about 30%.

  Plan ahead and take action. As early as April 7th, the Meteorological Center of the Yangtze River Basin made the conclusion of rainfall forecast in the Yangtze River Basin during the main flood season this year, further developed and applied grid forecasting products with high temporal and spatial resolution, and strengthened the consultation and judgment on the fluctuating capacity and flood control dispatching of the Three Gorges Reservoir, providing strong support for the Three Gorges Reservoir to complete the fluctuating task two days ahead of schedule and vacate the flood control storage capacity of 22.15 billion cubic meters.

Video: The flood control situation in the Yangtze River Basin is grim, and meteorological departments around the country have launched emergency response and fully responded.

  Hunan: defending against ground disasters by smelling the flood.

  Floods in small and medium-sized rivers have risen, landslides and roads have been interrupted … On July 5 and 6, another round of heavy rain affected the northwest of Hunan Province, and there was heavy rainfall in Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture for 10 consecutive days since June 27. The meteorological department of Hunan Province tightened the responsibility of flood control, moved at the news of the flood season, made precise efforts, and launched a "tug-of-war" with the relevant flood control departments to fully defend against geological disasters.

  Before the onset of this rainfall process, on July 3rd, Hunan Meteorological Bureau clearly pointed out in the Judgment of Important Weather that there will still be heavy rainfall in the northwest of Zhou Xiang in the future, with the strongest period from 5th to 8th, with local rainstorm to heavy rainstorm. On July 4th, Hunan Meteorological Bureau participated in the video conference on flood control in the whole province at 10: 00, and started the four-level emergency response of meteorological disasters (rainstorm) in the northwest of Hunan at 11: 00 that day. From 3 rd to 6 th, the Provincial Meteorological Bureau and the Provincial Department of Natural Resources jointly issued a multi-phase meteorological risk warning for geological disasters.

  On the 5th, there was a torrential rain in the northwest of Hunan, and the Dongting Lake was over-alerted, with 16 rivers in the province exceeding the alert and five large and medium-sized reservoirs in the north of central Hunan exceeding the flood season limit. In the face of intense flood, at 9: 00 on the 5th, the Provincial Meteorological Bureau upgraded the four-level emergency response to meteorological disasters (rainstorm) in northwest Hunan to three-level. That night, heavy precipitation hit again, and the Xiangxi Meteorological Observatory was brightly lit. After several sleepless nights, the forecaster still dared not relax and issued the forecast and warning in time. After receiving the early warning signal issued by the meteorological department, the flood control departments such as emergency management and water conservancy organized a comprehensive inspection of reservoirs, rivers and hidden dangers of geological disasters for the first time.

  At 2: 21 on the 6th, Li Chengxiang, secretary of the bucket car community in Shipai Town, Longshan County, received a heavy precipitation monitoring alarm issued by the county meteorological bureau. He became more alert. Together with Huang Guanghua, an old party member in the village, he carried out a new round of inspections on the hidden dangers of geological disasters in the community in the rain, and successfully transferred Xia Zhen, a 70-year-old man living near the hidden dangers of geological disasters, to a safe place. (Yao Liu Zhu Guoguang Deng Kai Rodin)

  Jiangxi: Safe Transfer of Targeted Early Warning

  At 2 o’clock on July 6, the water level of Hukou Hydrological Station in Jiangxi Province rose to the warning water level of 19.5 meters, reaching the flood numbering standard, and the No.1 flood in Poyang Lake in 2020 was formed. This also means that the Jiangxi section of the Yangtze River and Poyang Lake have entered a critical period of flood control. At the same time, Jiangxi Meteorological Bureau launched a four-level emergency response to major meteorological disasters (rainstorm).

  As this round of heavy rainfall coincided with the college entrance examination, the Provincial Meteorological Bureau timely submitted information to the provincial party committee, the provincial government and relevant departments to remind them to continue to strengthen the prevention of geological disasters such as floods and mountain torrents in small and medium-sized rivers, and be alert to the flood development in Jiujiang section of the Yangtze River and Poyang Lake. Hydropower stations and Shantang Reservoir need to strengthen flood control safety dispatching management to cope with strong convective weather such as heavy rain, lightning and strong winds.

  From 3rd to 4th, the Provincial Meteorological Bureau launched the whole network release mechanism of red warning twice, and released the red warning information of rainstorm to mobile phone users in Dexing City and leping city City respectively, and made a good job of mass transfer in advance.

  From 8: 00 on the 3rd to 8: 00 on the 4th, heavy rain occurred in three towns and villages in duchang county, Jiujiang City, and the rainfall in Zhouxi Town reached 157.3mm.. At 20 o’clock, mountain torrents began to pour into the home of villager Cao Xiaoping. In less than an hour, the water in his home reached his waist. Fortunately, village cadres such as Wu Xingxing, the mayor of Zhouxi Town, helped Cao Xiaoping’s family to move to the village health center in advance after receiving the rainstorm warning issued by the county meteorological bureau.

  In yiyang county, Shangrao City, from 20: 00 on the 2nd to 20: 00 on the 5th, the average precipitation in the county was 118mm, and the precipitation in 14 meteorological monitoring stations exceeded 100mm. "Dang … Dang …" At 1 o’clock on the 4th, a burst of rapid gong sounded in Xili Village, Wanli Township, yiyang county. This is the village cadres who are organizing mass transfer after receiving the rainstorm warning message from the meteorological department. In less than two hours, the village transferred 42 people from 18 households in areas prone to geological disasters on both sides of the river. "Thanks to the timely reminder of the weather warning, we can evacuate safely." Li Houcai, a villager, looked at the old house washed away by rain and had a lingering fear. (Deng Minjia Sheng Zhijun Li Zhibo Huang Lan Huang Ying)

  Anhui: Emergency linkage is ready.

  At 10: 00 on July 7, the water levels of Huikou, Datong, Wuhu and Maanshan stations in the main stream of the Yangtze River in Anhui Province all exceeded the warning water level, and the tributary lakes along the Yangtze River exceeded the warning water level in an all-round way and the guaranteed water level in some sections.

  In the face of a new round of heavy rainfall, at 11: 00 on the 5th, the emergency response of rainstorm of Anhui Meteorological Bureau was upgraded from level 3 to level 2, which further strengthened the organization and leadership, consultation and judgment, and strengthened the monitoring, forecasting and early warning services of heavy rain, short-term heavy precipitation, thunderstorms, strong winds and other strong convective weather. The Provincial Meteorological Observatory has issued yellow rainstorm warnings for many times, and pointed out that there was continuous heavy rainfall in southern Anhui before the 10th, which has the characteristics of high overlap between the heavy rainfall area and the previous period, large accumulated rainfall, strong precipitation intensity, etc. Dabie Mountain area and southern Anhui mountainous area should focus on preventing geological disasters of mountain torrents. Hefei, Tongling, Xuancheng and other 10 cities and 27 counties have also started flood control level 3 or level 4 emergency response.

  In the past few days, the Provincial Meteorological Bureau has strengthened emergency linkage services, jointly issued geological disaster warnings with the Provincial Department of Natural Resources, issued flash flood warnings with the Provincial Department of Water Resources, jointly issued urban waterlogging warnings with the Provincial Department of Housing and Construction, and started encrypted consultations, sending three meteorological service supervision teams in flood season to inspect and guide cities (counties) that are greatly affected by heavy rainfall, and to supervise key cities. According to the meteorological forecast and early warning, the Office of the Provincial Disaster Reduction and Relief Committee launched a four-level emergency response to disaster relief at 18: 00 on the 3rd, and sent two working groups to the disaster-stricken areas to investigate the nuclear disaster. 296 working groups from all over the country have been sent to the front line to do a good job in resettlement, emergency rescue and other work.

  While doing a good job in meteorological services for flood control, the Provincial Meteorological Bureau organized a weather news briefing for the college entrance examination to further strengthen meteorological services for the college entrance examination through new media channels such as Weibo and WeChat.

  It is reported that the actual rainfall is basically consistent with the forecast. Affected by this, as of 16: 00 on the 6 th, there are more than ten rivers along the Yangtze River in the province that have exceeded the warning water level, and some reservoirs have risen in water level, and flood discharge is being carried out according to regulations (Wu Ran, Wang Bing)

  Shanghai: Seamless Docking to Protect the City’s Peace

  Affected by the Meiyu belt, as of 11: 00 on July 6, the average water level of Taihu Lake rose to 4.06 meters, exceeding the warning level of 0.26 meters.

  Predicting the flood situation in Taihu Lake basin, Shanghai Meteorological Bureau launched a four-level emergency response to heavy rain on the 4th. On the 5th, the Municipal Meteorological Bureau upgraded to the third-level emergency response, and the Shanghai Central Meteorological Observatory (Taihu Lake Basin Meteorological Center) upgraded to the second-level emergency response. It provided the Taihu Lake Basin Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters (hereinafter referred to as Taihu Lake Flood Control Headquarters) with 3-7 days’ surface rainfall forecast every day to fully guarantee the flood control and flood fighting in Taihu Lake and megacities.

  At present, the Taihu Lake Defense General has launched a three-level emergency response to flood control, and paid close attention to the weather development trends such as plum rain and strong convection, and made decision support for flood control and flood fighting.

  In terms of flood control and flood fighting services in megacities, the Shanghai Central Meteorological Observatory (Taihu Basin Meteorological Center) has continuously issued the Special Report for Leaders of Important Meteorological Information City, reminding relevant departments in areas affected by Meiyu Belt to prepare for flood control and flood fighting, and informing the Municipal Flood Control Command Office of the rain situation and precipitation trend information through the "Flood Control Through Train" WeChat group. Shanghai Meteorological Service Center also continuously releases the latest meiyu trends and popular science information to the public through platforms such as Weibo, WeChat and Tik Tok, reminding the public to adjust their travel plans in time to prevent thunderstorms and windy weather.

  It is worth mentioning that in order to cope with this round of heavy rainfall, the "Meteorological Plug-in 1.0" for urban fine management built by the Municipal Meteorological Bureau has been officially put into service, seamlessly connecting with the important command platforms such as the flood control and typhoon prevention command system of the Municipal Flood Control Office, the emergency command integrated platform of the Municipal Emergency Management Bureau, the command system of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, the theme library of the Municipal Operation Management Center, the duty platform of the municipal government’s general duty room and the "data cockpit" of the municipal big data center.
