The U.S. government has been waving a trade war stick in recent days and attacking from all sides. This behavior has been continuously criticized by all walks of life in the United States, as well as around the world.

　　"We need a bigger refrigerator, and Trump’s trade war has piled up unsalable meat products." This is the headline of a recent news in Los Angeles Times, which said that the US government provoked a trade war, forcing Mexico and China, the biggest buyers of American meat, to impose tariffs on American pork products, which led to a sharp drop in US pork exports to Mexico and China. The unsalable meat worries American farmers. According to the Wall Street Journal, there are currently more than 1.137 billion kilograms of beef, pork and poultry meat products in the United States piled up in cold storage, and it is impossible to sell them.

　　Farmers don’t want government subsidies.

　　"We want the market, not government subsidies." This is the voice of American farmers for an agricultural subsidy program with a total amount of up to $12 billion announced by the Trump administration on the 24th of this month. The US Department of Agriculture said on the 24th that the above agricultural subsidies will be targeted at agricultural products such as soybeans, sorghum, corn, wheat, pork and dairy products, which are being affected by the countermeasures taken by other economies to impose tariffs on the United States. It is reported that the specific policy details will be announced before Labor Day in September. The US Secretary of Agriculture said that the subsidy program is a "short-term measure" to buy time for the Trump administration to negotiate long-term trade agreements with other economies.

　　However, it is surprising that the American agricultural community has no interest in the Trump administration’s agricultural subsidy program. The Trump administration wanted to use this plan to help American farmers who were damaged in the trade dispute provoked by the United States, but the plan was opposed by many members of Congress, representatives of agricultural associations and farmers, who urged the Trump administration to end trade disputes with other economies as soon as possible.

　　For Republican members of Congress who have always opposed large-scale government subsidies, this agricultural subsidy plan is obviously unacceptable. Senator Ben Sass, Republican of Nebraska, said that the current trade war has hit American farmers hard, and the White House plan is to spend $12 billion on a pair of "golden crutches". He pointed out that American farmers do not want to be subsidized and suffer losses at the same time, but hope that their products can be used all over the world. They believe that "the Trump administration’s tariff and rescue plan will not make the United States become greater, but let the United States return to 1929 (the beginning of the Great Depression)."

　　Trade wars that disrupt American trade policy and hinder foreign investment have not been supported by local States in the United States. At the annual meeting of the National Governors Association held in New Mexico, USA on July 19th, several governors said that the trade policy implemented by the Trump administration was disrupting the market of bulk agricultural products and bringing troubles to foreign investors. The Governor of Arkansas, Asa Hutchinson, said that out of concern about the US-China trade relations, he was sending the state’s economic officials to visit China and hold talks with Chinese enterprises investing in Arkansas. He hopes to find a solution quickly to prevent tariff war from escalating.

　　Republican candidates complain about the Trump administration.

　　Not only has the agricultural subsidy plan met with the shaking heads of American farmers, but in recent months, the Trump administration has successively announced the imposition of tariffs on steel and aluminum products from many countries and China goods worth tens of billions of dollars, which has also been widely opposed at home and abroad.

　　Recently, the Peterson Institute for International Economics, an American think tank, published an article saying that the Trump administration’s trade war has triggered retaliatory measures by Canada, Mexico, the European Union and China. The USDA estimates that these countermeasures will cause about $11 billion in losses to American agricultural products. These four economies account for 61% of US merchandise exports. If Trump escalates the trade war again and imposes tariffs on China goods worth $200 billion, American overseas sales and domestic output will drop sharply again, and the unemployment rate will also rise sharply.

　　Chad Bowen, a senior researcher from the Peterson Institute for International Economics, and others recently wrote that Trump’s tariffs on China’s goods worth $200 billion have dealt a huge blow to American consumers. Billions of imported consumer goods, including computers, furniture, lamps and suitcases, have been hit, and the budget expenditure of American families will have to be increased. The rise in commodity prices has made it more difficult for traditional students of American families to go back to school to shop and decorate their houses. The American media hit the nail on the head and pointed out that "the trade war launched by Trump dragged American consumers into the water".

　　Jerome Powell, chairman of the Federal Reserve, said at the hearing held by the Financial Institutions Committee of the House of Representatives on July 18th that American enterprises were increasingly worried about tariffs, and many enterprises were hurt by tariffs. Powell said that protectionism is harmful to the economy. He said: "The more protectionist an economy is, the weaker its competitiveness and the lower its production efficiency."

　　As the mid-term elections in the United States approach, the trade war will inevitably become a hot topic. Two senior White House officials said recently that they were receiving complaints from Republican candidates that Trump’s tariff collection led to retaliation from other countries, according to the aksil website. Many officials in the White House have begun to question whether the trade war is a good thing for the Republican Party’s election in the Midwest.

　　It is impossible for the United States to launch a trade war.

　　In addition to domestic pressure, the United States is also facing a lot of external pressure. According to Kyodo News, at the recent meeting of G-20 finance ministers and central bank governors in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Japanese Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Taro Aso criticized the US trade policy of imposing tariffs on imported goods from many countries, and almost all countries expressed concern about the trade frictions intensified under the tough policy of the United States. According to Bloomberg News, officials from Germany, Japan and South Korea rejected Trump’s unilateralist stance at this meeting. Daniel M. Minelle, deputy governor of the South African Reserve Bank, said that "US President Trump’s fiery remarks are not only a threat, but also have begun to affect the real economy".

　　Some American experts said that Trump seems to think that American trading partners will succumb to American pressure and finally have to make concessions, but he will not fail to understand the truth of "killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred". The International Monetary Fund warned on the 21st that the trade war between the United States, China and Europe may cause serious damage to the global economy, and in the worst case, the global economic growth rate will be reduced by 0.5%.

　　According to the estimate of Moody’s Analytics, if the United States levies taxes on imported cars and most China goods, and the other side retaliates, the economic growth rate of the United States may be reduced by 0.5% by the middle of 2019. At the same time, 700,000 jobs will be lost in the United States.

　　Today, when the global economy is highly dependent, it is impossible for the United States to launch a trade war.

　　Left: Martell wine (courtesy of the court)

　　Yesterday morning, in the Sixth Trial Chamber of ouhai district People’s Court, the plaintiff took out six bottles of wine, including one bottle of Martell XO and five bottles of "Luyi Lanjue XO" brandy produced by a liquor company in Fujian. It turned out that this trial was that Martell sued a grocery store in Chashan, Ouhai, a trading company in Wenzhou and a liquor company in Fujian for trademark infringement and unfair competition.

　　"Martell" company invited two lawyers as entrusted agents, and the defendant from a liquor company in Fujian did not appear in court. The agent of "Martell" said that "Martell /MARTELL" is a famous cognac brand in France. In 2016, they found that an online Taobao shop named "Lexiang Wine World" (operated by a non-staple food store in Chashan, Ouhai) was selling "Luyi Lanjue XO" brandy. The packaging and decoration of this product were similar to those of "Martell XO", and it was suspected that the bottle-shaped three-dimensional trademark of "Martell XO" was infringed. In June of the same year, "Martell" company bought this product in the Taobao shop and got a receipt with the official seal of a trading company in Wenzhou. "Luyi Lanjue XO" brandy is produced by a liquor company in Fujian.

　　"Martell" company told the court that it infringed on its exclusive right to use registered trademarks and constituted unfair competition, demanding compensation of 1 million yuan for economic losses, 300,000 yuan for reasonable expenses such as lawyer’s agency fees, and publishing a statement in the media to eliminate the influence.

　　"Martell" Company claims that it has registered a three-dimensional trademark for the bottle shape of "Martell XO" products in Chinese mainland, and enjoys the legal exclusive right to use the trademark. The so-called bottle body shape refers to an arched bottle body with an arc bottom. "Luyi Lanjue XO brandy products and packaging boxes deliberately imitate the packaging and decoration of the plaintiff’s Martell XO in terms of text, graphic arrangement and color, and consumers generally cannot find subtle differences, which will make consumers mistakenly think that it is the plaintiff’s goods or have a specific connection with the plaintiff, which is easy to cause confusion." The entrusted agent said that the products involved were sold in online stores with a wide geographical scope and the infringement lasted for a long time.

　　The legal representatives of a grocery store in Chashan, Ouhai, Wenzhou, and a trading company in Wenzhou all said that they had fulfilled their duty of examination before selling and had checked the trademark registration certificate provided by the manufacturer, but they did not know that the products involved would constitute infringement. And the appearance of the products involved is not exactly the same as that of "Martell XO", and the bottle of "Martell XO" is about 1,500 yuan. The products involved are sold in 99 yuan, and the prices are very different, which will not mislead consumers.

　　According to the agent entrusted by Martell Company, this is the first case in which they sued for the dispute over the trademark right of counterfeiting Martell XO. In view of the intention of mediation between the plaintiff and the two defendants, the court did not make a judgment in court.

　　Lishui, November 9 (Reporter Zhou Yulong) In photography education, can science and art be mentioned in the same breath? Faced with this important proposition, experts and scholars at home and abroad have conducted some discussions.

　　From 8th to 9th, a seminar on "Photography Education in Dialogue between Science and Art" was held in Lishui, Zhejiang. The guests at the meeting revolved around "Today, when technology and art are deeply integrated, how can photography education develop?" "In the era of popular photography, how can photography education continue to be deeply rooted in people’s hearts?" "What opportunities and challenges does photography education face in the era of artificial intelligence?" And other issues, to preach, teach and solve doubts for photographers around the world.

　　"Nowadays, digital images, AI and VR technologies have deepened our addiction to images and created more arbitrary visual effects. It is inevitable that people are worried that imaging technology will completely control our visual experience and then transform our psychology, thinking and society. " Yao Zheng, vice president of Zhejiang Media College, believes that how to reform the film and television education in universities is an unavoidable practical problem.

　　For example, in China, almost everyone will be familiar with all kinds of Mito software. Some people even say that any selfie that is sent to a circle of friends without a beauty filter is hooliganism; Nowadays, there are hundreds of millions of people with cameras, who can take photos, transmit photos, spread information and express themselves in public anytime and anywhere … … So, as far as this is concerned, does it need photography literacy education just like writing?

　　Su Zhigang, dean of the School of Audiovisual Media of Beijing Film Academy, believes that we should pay attention to the influence of technological evolution and turn challenges into innovative forces in photography education. Return to the original intention of photography education and creation from the perspective of humanism.

　　"We should start from people themselves and perceive the world, life, others and even fate from our works. In this way, we can form valuable, visionary and broad life beliefs and externalized photography works driven by some reflexive psychology." Su Zhigang said.

　　Professor Yasuya Shirase of kyushu sangyo university thinks so. He said that the purpose of photography education is not only to learn technology, but also to express the joy and cultivate the mind that can feel the subject. "The greatest ability that human beings have is imagination and creation, and it is precisely because human beings have this feeling."

　　Liu Yajing, from Qingdao University, believes that the current higher photography education in China is technology-oriented, and gradually emphasizes the importance of creation.

　　"However, due to the over-emphasis on the ontological consciousness of photography, the role of photography in the cultural field and its integration with other cultural forms have been neglected." Liu Yajing said that the future photography education should serve the society, not a certain field; It should be based on the idea of creation within the framework of social science, not elaborate technological achievements.

　　Ji Weige, Chairman of the Professional Committee of Photography Education of China Higher Education Society, expressed the hope that this meeting could be used as an opportunity to help domestic universities build a sustainable multi-level and diversified international academic exchange and cooperation mechanism for photography education, and to promote our photography education to maintain and upgrade its internationalization and modernization level.

　　It is understood that the "International Symposium on Photography Education" will be held as a long-term project and is committed to becoming a high-end academic brand of photography education.

Wuling Binguo, a new model that emerged in March 2023, achieved a remarkable delivery of 15,011 vehicles only one month later, that is, in April. So, what is the charm of this model, which can attract so many consumers in a short time? Next, we will explore the real feedback of Wuling Bingo owners together.

Economical and efficient, low-cost travel

As a pure electric vehicle, the primary advantage of Wuling Binguo lies in the low cost of car use. According to the feedback from the actual owner, the comprehensive power consumption of this model is 10kWh/100km. If it is charged at home, the driving cost per kilometer is only a few cents. In addition, the later maintenance cost of Binguo is relatively low, and the annual insurance cost will not constitute too much burden.

Steady endurance performance

Car owners generally report that Wuling Binguo’s endurance performance in daily urban driving is very stable. Its actual mileage is basically consistent with the mileage shown on the table. Even when driving at a high speed and driving at the highest speed of 106km/h, Bingo’s endurance achievement rate can be maintained in the range of 75%-80%, which is particularly outstanding in similar electric vehicles.

Convenient daily commuting tools

Wuling Binguo has become an ideal choice for novice drivers because of its compact and flexible body design. This small electric car can easily shuttle through crowded city streets or narrow parking spaces. At the same time, despite its positioning as a small car, Bingo’s internal space is enough to meet the daily needs of carrying people and goods, which provides great convenience for commuters.

Security configuration needs to be improved.

However, Wuling Binguo is slightly insufficient in terms of safety configuration. Its low-profile models are only equipped with the main driver airbag, while the high-profile models are equipped with the co-pilot airbag. In terms of active safety, the vehicle is only equipped with ABS anti-lock braking system and EBD braking force distribution system. Compared with competing products at the same level, such as BYD Seagull, its safety configuration is relatively basic.

The ride comfort needs to be improved.

Limited by its price range (598-83800), Wuling Binguo still has much room for improvement in ride comfort. Most car owners said that when the vehicle passed through the bumpy road or speed bump, the cushioning effect of the chassis was not ideal, and the body jumped obviously, which led passengers to directly feel the vibration and bumps. In addition, the sound insulation effect of vehicles also needs to be strengthened.

The level of intelligence is quite satisfactory

In terms of intelligence, Wuling Binguo’s performance is slightly mediocre. Except that the top model is equipped with the central control panel, the interior design of other versions is relatively simple. Even the car-engine system of the top model needs to be improved in response speed and fluency, and there are relatively few third-party applications supported. Compared with T03 and BYD Seagull at the same level, the gap in intelligence is obvious.

To sum up, Wuling Binguo has won the favor of consumers with its low car cost, stable endurance performance and convenient commuting function. However, the safety configuration, ride comfort and intelligence level need to be improved. For consumers whose main demand is commuting in urban areas, these shortcomings of Wuling Binguo may be acceptable, while its outstanding advantages are enough to meet their daily needs.

Beijing, June 8 (Reporter Feng Shuo from Voice of China) In the Internet age, you can buy and sell the world without leaving home. A new service format-cross-border e-commerce is extended between this "buy one and sell one". Recently, when the domestic "618" was launched on various e-commerce platforms, overseas summer promotion was about to start. China’s foreign trade merchants have also seized this opportunity, and a large number of high-quality goods from China are going abroad and being sold overseas. "Made in China" is exported overseas. What kind of foreign trade recovery signal does it convey?

Global sales of "Made in China" are booming.

As the weather gets hotter, swimwear has also become a global best-selling commodity. In the industrial park in Yiwu, Zhejiang Province, Wei Liuyan, the director of operation of a clothing enterprise, is paying attention to the production of her own swimsuit. She told reporters that the factory kept the output of about 1,000 sets every day during this period.

Wei Liuyan said: "Our swimsuits are mainly sold overseas, such as Spain, the United States, Russia and other countries. This year, because we have enough goods and advertisements, I am still very confident. I expect it to be 300,000-500,000 (overseas sales) this year, which is expected to increase twice as much as last year. Because last year may indeed be greatly affected by the epidemic, customers in some countries will come to us and say that they are relatively depressed, and the purchase rate is not as high as in previous years, but this year they have returned a lot of orders. "

In the past month, summer commodities such as sunscreens, cool mats, sunscreens and other heatstroke prevention "three-piece sets" and swimsuits and swimming caps have left the country from Alashankou Port via Hungary, Poland, Germany and France and arrived in Spain. Wei Liuyan said: "The speed of overseas warehousing is actually quite fast. Customers can receive the goods in 2-3 days, and the effect is still very good. If it is prepared in the official platform warehouse, the average time is about 5-7 days, and the speed is quite fast. "

Similarly, since the beginning of this year, a cross-border electronic commerce industrial park in Anhui Province has been extremely busy, and the orders of cross-border business enterprises in the park are full. Lv Juanjuan, director of the operation and management department of a cross-border electronic commerce Limited Company in Hefei, said: "Focusing on the development of cross-border e-commerce, we are constantly making efforts in industrial policies, connecting enterprises and creating a business environment to make up for shortcomings. At present, we have reached cooperation mechanisms such as cross-border e-commerce charter flights, cross-border e-commerce+China-Europe trains, and cross-border e-commerce sea-rail combined transport. "

What accelerated the arrival of goods in China?

In recent years, China’s goods are of high quality and low price, which are very popular among overseas consumers. On the occasion of overseas summer sales promotion, various cross-border e-commerce platforms are also gearing up this year, making full use of logistics modes such as land, sea, air and rail to bring overseas consumers a receiving experience of "5 dollars for 10 days" and "local delivery for the next day", helping small and medium-sized foreign trade merchants and cross-border enterprises to start a "blood-returning war". Yang Junjun, the head of the rookie international supply chain freight solution, said: "Cross-border parcels have changed from waiting for the collection of goods in the mainland to taking the Central European train, to the on-call mode from Alashankou, Xinjiang, to help logistics timeliness. For goods stocked through all Spanish overseas warehouses, the outbound order will be combined with local self-operated terminal delivery in the future, which can reach the next day at the earliest, and the overall timeliness of customer orders will be accelerated by at least 10 days. "

Hong Yong, an associate researcher at the Institute of E-commerce of the Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce, analyzed that compared with air transportation, China-Europe trains are more cost-effective and stable, and can transport more types and categories of goods, which is the preferred logistics method for merchants to stock up during the promotion period.

Hong Yong said: "China-Europe trains usually run as a whole train of goods, which can accommodate a large number of goods and realize batch transportation. In contrast, air transportation is usually carried out by flight, which is relatively expensive for a small amount of goods. The transportation cost can be reduced by batch transportation of trains in Central Europe. Compared with air transportation, the transportation cost of China-Europe trains is usually lower. Although the transportation time of China-Europe trains is relatively long, the cost is lower, which can attract some price-sensitive goods and businesses to choose China-Europe trains. "

What kind of development opportunities does China’s cross-border e-commerce face this year?

Nowadays, cross-border e-commerce, as a new mode of foreign trade, is the effective force for the high-quality development of foreign trade, through e-commerce platform to reach transactions, make payment and settlement, and then deliver goods and complete transactions through cross-border logistics. During the "618" promotion period, the "going to sea" channel opened by the China-Europe train allowed more "Made in China" to enter the homes of ordinary people in Central Asia on the China-Europe train, sending a signal of warmer foreign trade.

Hong Yong told reporters that this year, China’s cross-border e-commerce is expected to usher in more opportunities and achieve further results. Foreign trade recovery, policy support and technological innovation will provide strong support for the development of the industry.

Hong Yong said: "First, foreign trade is picking up, the global economy is gradually recovering, and international trade is expected to pick up. As a form of cross-border trade, cross-border e-commerce will usher in more opportunities with the help of the recovery of foreign trade, the demand for export commodities is expected to increase, and the choice of imported commodities will be more diversified. Second, policy support continued to increase. The China Municipal Government has been committed to promoting the development of cross-border e-commerce and will continue to increase policy support. The government may introduce more tax reduction and fee reduction policies, further optimize the customs clearance process, and strengthen measures such as intellectual property protection to provide a better development environment and policy support for cross-border e-commerce. Third, technological innovation promotes development. With the continuous progress of science and technology, the application of technologies including artificial intelligence and big data analysis in cross-border e-commerce will further promote the development of the industry. Through technological innovation, cross-border e-commerce can improve the efficiency of supply chain, improve the ability of personalized recommendation and risk management, provide consumers with a better shopping experience, and then promote the development of the industry. "

This model of cross-border e-commerce directly connects manufacturers with foreign consumers, which changes the time and space structure. Enterprises can operate globally in different regions and make traditional trade online. At the same time, small and medium-sized enterprises can participate in global trade on the same footing as large enterprises and sell their products all over the world. Hong Yong said: "The increase in demand may prompt more enterprises and consumers to choose cross-border e-commerce platforms for international trade activities. With the continuous progress and application of science and technology, the cross-border e-commerce industry is constantly innovating, and the capabilities of supply chain efficiency, personalized recommendation and risk management and control are improved through technical means to further enhance user experience and satisfaction. In addition, cross-border e-commerce companies are also actively expanding overseas markets and seeking more cooperation opportunities and market share. The potential demand in emerging markets and Central Asia may become the development focus of cross-border e-commerce companies. "
