2018 is destined to be an extraordinary year in China’s development process.

　　In the first year of fully implementing the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, in the face of the complicated and severe external environment and the internal pressure of economic downturn, China’s macro-control objectives were well accomplished, the three major battles started well, and the supply-side structural reform was further promoted.

　　How to turn crisis into opportunity and turn crisis into safety when the economic operation is changing steadily and worrying? The just-concluded Central Economic Work Conference emphasized that we must unswervingly adhere to the supply-side structural reform as the main line and fight three key battles against outstanding problems.

　　Face up to difficulties and persist in taking supply-side structural reform as the main line.

　　From January to September, the steel enterprises of China Steel Association achieved a profit of 229.963 billion yuan, an increase of 86.01% year-on-year, setting the best performance in history.

　　"This is due to the supply-side structural reform." Liu Zhenjiang, secretary general of China Iron and Steel Industry Association, said.

　　To do a good job in economic work, we must focus on the main contradictions.

　　The Central Economic Work Conference made a clear judgment: the main contradiction of China’s economic operation is still supply-side structural, and we must persist in taking supply-side structural reform as the main line, adopt more reform methods, and make more use of marketization and rule of law to work hard on the words "consolidate, strengthen, upgrade and smooth".

　　In April this year, the National Development and Reform Commission and other six departments jointly issued the "Notice on Doing a Good Job in Resolving Excess Capacity in Key Areas in 2018", which made it clear that this year we should continue to carry out in-depth steel de-capacity, continuously improve the quality of coal supply system, actively and steadily resolve the excess capacity of coal-fired power, and strive to achieve the goal of further reducing the steel production capacity by about 30 million tons, withdrawing from coal production capacity by about 150 million tons, and eliminating coal-fired power units below 300,000 kilowatts that fail to meet the standards.

　　Various regions and departments have successively introduced a number of new measures, such as continuing to deepen the reform of value-added tax, reducing the rate of value-added tax in manufacturing and other industries, and introducing a series of tax reduction measures to support entrepreneurial innovation and the development of small and micro enterprises.

　　"China’s economy has shifted from a high-speed growth stage to a high-quality development stage. Further improving the understanding of supply-side structural reforms is of great significance for accelerating the construction of a modern economic system and promoting high-quality economic development." Gao Guoli, a researcher at China Macroeconomic Research Institute, said.

　　Cross the barrier and continue to fight three tough battles against outstanding problems.

　　A few days ago, ten counties (cities) in Henan Province were notified by the Office of the Leading Group for Fighting against Pollution, because the air pollution index remained high and fell behind many times in the ranking of the whole province.

　　Winning the three major battles is the key point that must be crossed to build a well-off society in an all-round way. The Central Economic Work Conference emphasized that this year’s three major battles were successful in the first battle, and next year, we should focus on outstanding problems and lay a good job in key battles.

　　Focus on resolving major risks — —

　　In early November, the China Financial Stability Report (2018) issued by the People’s Bank of China held that the current financial risks have generally converged and the financial chaos has been preliminarily controlled. Looking forward to 2019, the basic situation of China’s large economy, large market and strong resilience has not changed, the institutional risks will be gradually managed and resolved smoothly, and the foundation for stable financial operation will be more stable.

　　"A series of measures to prevent and resolve financial risks since 2017 have achieved remarkable results. Overall, China’s economic and financial risks are controllable and there will be no systemic risks. " Zhou Xuedong, director of the General Office of the People’s Bank of China and director of the Financial Stability Board, said.

　　Get rid of poverty and attack hard — —

　　Central planning, overall responsibility of the province, implementation by cities and counties, establishment of files and cards, accurate identification of poor people, selection of resident teams, and strengthening front-line work force … … With the joint efforts of the whole society, China has made solid progress in solving regional overall poverty.

　　The Central Economic Work Conference requested that we should focus on solving the outstanding problems in realizing the "two guarantees and three guarantees", increase the efforts of poverty-stricken areas and special poverty-stricken groups such as "three districts and three states", reduce and prevent the poor from returning to poverty, and study and solve new problems such as the lack of policy support for those groups whose income level is slightly higher than that of poor households with established cards.

　　The the State Council Poverty Alleviation Office predicts that by the end of the year, the number of poor people in rural areas will be reduced by more than 85%, poverty-stricken villages will be withdrawn by about 80%, and poverty-stricken counties will be lifted out of poverty by more than 50%.

　　Clear water and blue sky consolidate achievements — —

　　The Central Economic Work Conference clearly pointed out that to fight the battle against pollution, we must hold our ground and consolidate our achievements.

　　In order to exchange for clear water, blue sky and pure land, the battle against pollution has been continuously exerted this year.

　　Through continuous intensive supervision in key areas such as Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Fenwei Plain, the pollution problem has been curbed, from the over-discharge of enterprises to the incomplete rectification of scattered pollution, from the rectification of small boilers to the control of dust on construction sites.

　　From January to October, the national average number of excellent days was 81.5%, up by 0.9 percentage points year-on-year, the concentration of PM2.5 decreased by 7.5%, and the concentration of PM10 decreased by 4.2%.

　　Mao Shengyong, spokesman of the National Bureau of Statistics, said that in the first three quarters, the investment in the national ecological protection and environmental management industry increased by 33.7% year-on-year, and the growth rate was 28.3 percentage points faster than the total investment, which became a highlight to promote the high-quality economic development in China.

　　Unswervingly push China’s economy to a new stage of high-quality development.

　　From January to November, China’s private investment increased by 8.7%, 3 percentage points higher than the same period of last year and 2.8 percentage points faster than the overall investment. In terms of industries, private investment in manufacturing increased by 10.3%, up by 6.2 percentage points over the same period of last year.

　　The relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission said that with the implementation of a series of policies to encourage private investment and support private enterprises, such as introducing key projects to private capital, private investment has always maintained a good growth momentum this year.

　　The Central Economic Work Conference requires that we should closely follow the new connotation of important strategic opportunities, accelerate the optimization and upgrading of economic structure, enhance the ability of scientific and technological innovation, deepen reform and opening up, accelerate green development, participate in the reform of global economic governance system, and turn pressure into a driving force for accelerating high-quality economic development.

　　"In the face of new difficulties and challenges, we must have a clearer understanding and strive to turn crises into opportunities to push China’s economy to a new stage of high-quality development." Zhang Yansheng, chief researcher of China International Economic Exchange Center, said.

　　Both the Central Economic Work Conference and the recently held Politburo meeting of the Chinese Communist Party emphasized the "Five Persistences": adhering to the general tone of striving for progress while maintaining stability, adhering to the new development concept, persisting in promoting high-quality development, persisting in the supply-side structural reform as the main line, persisting in deepening market-oriented reform and expanding high-level opening up.

　　From January to November, the added value of high-tech manufacturing and equipment manufacturing was 5.5 and 2.0 percentage points faster than that of industries above designated size, respectively; In the first three quarters, the contribution of service industry and consumption to economic growth rose to 60.8% and 78% respectively.

　　According to the data of the National Bureau of Statistics, the new kinetic energy index of China’s economic development from 2015 to 2017 was 123.5, 156.7 and 210.1, respectively, which was accelerating year by year.

　　The more complicated the situation, the more we must maintain our strategic strength and seize the period of strategic opportunities. Zhang Junkuo, deputy director of the State Council Development Research Center, believes that in the face of complex situation, the key is to unswervingly deepen reform and open wider to the outside world, and strive to improve the institutional and policy environment conducive to promoting high-quality development.

　The movie "Fighting Evil" will be premiered in Iqiyi and Tencent soon. On February 6th, the movie was held in Beijing. Director Huo Suiqiang, chief producer Yan Dong, producer Deng Xiao, starring Xie Miao and Andy On, starring Hong Shuang, Gu Jing, Li Zijia and other creative artists attended the movie-watching activities in Beijing, and started a hearty and high-burning movie-watching tour with the media guests and audience at the scene. In the post-screening interaction, Xie Miao and Andy On talked about the feeling of cooperation for the first time and restored the scene of playing the title of the play, and they created and shared the original intention and behind-the-scenes story of the action movie. Fans responded enthusiastically at the scene, sending Spring Festival couplets, playing with hot stalks and fancy confession, and lighting the first fire of action movies in spring together.

　　Xie Miao VS Andy On Shuangxiong’s first cooperation leads to expectations.

　　The most eye-catching topic in the movie "Fighting Evil" is bound to be the first cooperation between Xie Miao and Andy On. Xie Miao expressed his initial appeal for "Anti-Evil", one of which was "the purest action movie" and the other was "it is very important to have a good opponent". When he learned that he was cooperating with Andy On, he said "there is nothing to say". Andy On also responded, "In fact, I watched Xie Miao’s play when I was a child." The two not only chatted about their feelings of cooperating with each other for the first time, but also copied the wonderful confrontation in the film one by one, which made people clap their hands. The combination of the two powers, director Huo Suiqiang believes that "they are here, everything can be done."

　　For the limited cooperation between the two, the fans sent their blessings without hesitation. Some viewers shouted excitedly, "You are the most annoying group", and some male viewers showed their love for Andy On on the spot, hilariously calling him "the only man who can make me not watch beautiful women while watching movies", and fans even directly sent earthy love words to express their love. Andy On and Xie Miao gave sincere feedback. Not only did they send New Year’s red envelopes on the spot, but Andy On guessed the meaning of Xie Miao’s Beijing dialect and interacted with each other, which filled up the atmosphere of the Spring Festival movie. It was simply a big fan dream scene.

　　The activity also specially arranged the link of "Repelling Villains, Fighting Evil to Keep Peace", with Xie Miao and Andy On boxing and kicking, giving the audience the hardest New Year wishes. "Watch" Fighting Evil "and keep safe" has become the most straightforward and direct confession of this action film, and the New Year benefits that the two men have limited fit are really unusual.

　　Limit 8 fights with violence to attract on-site praise.

　　In the discussion related to the movie "Fighting Evil", "limiting eight fights" became a high-frequency word, among which "icehouse duel" was Xie Miao’s most impressive fight, and he thought that "the weapon design of chain and hammer was also novel", which revealed in detail their experience of cultivating tacit understanding at the scene. "A mirror-to-the-bottom fight in the sewer" is unforgettable for both of them. Andy On bluntly said that "his arm was sore for many days".

　　After the screening, the audience gave feedback that not only the action style of the film was highly integrated, but also the props, guns and even fighting weapons appeared in the scene were highly adapted to the characters, plots and scenes, which improved the viewing experience and made the film full of coolness. Fans said that "this is the coolest and most burning drama I have seen recently, and I am sweating directly, especially worried that the actors will be injured." In addition, the other three leading actors, Hong Shuang, Gu Jing and Li Zijia, who came to the scene, were also recognized and praised by the audience for their wonderful performances in the film.

　　At the scene of the movie "Evil", director Huo Suiqiang shared the creative process and initial heart of the film from the beginning of shooting.

　　People’s Daily Online, Beijing, May 31 (Reporter Yang Xi) According to the news of the General Administration of Market Supervision, recently, the Safety Precautions for Primary and Secondary Schools and Kindergartens (GB/T 29315-2022) (hereinafter referred to as the Requirements) was approved by the General Administration of Market Supervision (Standards Committee) and will be officially implemented on June 1, 2022.

　　It is understood that this is the first revision after the release of the original "Safety Technology Prevention System Requirements for Primary and Secondary Schools and Kindergartens" (GB/T 29315-2012) in 2012. The release and implementation of the new "Requirements" make up for the low requirements of manpower prevention and physical prevention in the 2012 edition of "Requirements for Safety Technology Prevention System for Primary and Secondary Schools and Kindergartens", and the mismatch between the system technical indicators and the application of new technologies. It is of great significance to further improve the standard system of campus security.

　　The revision of "Requirements" follows the guiding principle of "practical, scientific and advanced, and moderately advanced", focusing on the combination of civil air defense, physical defense and technical defense in campus safety, taking the personal safety of students and faculty as the main goal, proceeding from reality, strengthening the problem orientation, making efforts to improve relevant contents and technical specifications in key parts, important measures, emergency response and technical support, and improving the level of school safety prevention.

　　The core contents of the Requirements include key parts and areas, overall prevention requirements, human prevention requirements, entity prevention requirements, electronic prevention requirements and technical requirements of safety prevention system, which are applicable to the construction and management of safety prevention systems in primary and secondary schools and kindergartens, and can be used for reference in the construction and management of safety prevention systems in other institutions or places such as centralized education and training, rescue and protection for minors.

　　The highlight of the Requirements is to define the key parts and areas of safety precautions. Adhere to the concept of "life first, safety first" as the center, combined with the series deployment of safety protection work in primary and secondary schools and kindergartens by the state and relevant departments in recent years and the different types and scales of the campus, 16 key parts and areas of safety protection have been defined, and the campus safety protection area has been extended from the inside to the door and surrounding areas.

　　The distinctive feature of "Requirements" is that it embodies the combination of civil air defense, physical defense and technical defense in campus safety, integrates new technologies and new concepts of safety prevention, and improves the operability of standards. Detailed provisions have been made on the preventive measures and system technical requirements of key parts and regions, so as to promote the campus safety prevention work to be more solid and effective, and ensure that the technical indicators of the system match and coordinate with the application of new technologies.

　　According to reports, in the next step, the General Administration of Market Supervision (Standards Committee) will take a number of measures to actively carry out the publicity and implementation activities of the Requirements, organize the compilation of publicity training materials, and record publicity training videos for relevant management departments, primary and secondary schools, and kindergartens to learn and understand. The Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Education will also issue notices in conjunction with the promulgation and implementation of the Requirements to promote the implementation of primary and secondary schools and kindergartens.

　　What are the mega cities in China? What is the economic development of these cities in the first three quarters of this year? Not long ago, based on the data of the seventh national census, the National Bureau of Statistics released the "Basic Situation of the Population of Megacities and Megacities in the Seventh National Census", showing that the "Club" of megacities in China has expanded again, including 7 megacities and 14 megacities in China. These cities are also remarkable in terms of economic development. Since the beginning of this year, they have handed in brilliant answers, and the GDP of many urban areas has exceeded 1 trillion yuan.

　　Re-expansion of clubs in megacities

　　What kind of cities are "megacities" and "megacities"? The National Bureau of Statistics explained that the scale of "mega-cities" and "mega-cities" is divided according to the "Notice of the State Council on Adjusting the Criteria for Urban Size Classification" issued in 2014: cities with more than 5 million urban residents and less than 10 million urban residents are megacities, and cities with more than 10 million urban residents are megacities; The urban population of each city is the population at the standard time of the seventh census (0: 00 on November 1, 2020).

　　Previously, according to the Statistical Yearbook of Urban Construction in 2019 released by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, China has 6 mega cities including Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Tianjin, and 10 mega cities including Dongguan, Wuhan, Chengdu, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Zhengzhou, Xi ‘an, Jinan, Shenyang and Qingdao.

　　According to the data of "Seventh General Plan", four new members have been added to this mega-city "Club": the urban populations of Kunming, Changsha, Dalian and Harbin all exceed 5 million. At the same time, Chengdu ranks among the megacities with an urban population of 13.34 million. In addition, Wuhan ranks eighth in the list of megacities with an urban population of 9.95 million, only 50,000 people away from the "qualification" of megacities.

　　Why does the "club" of mega-cities expand again and again? "Sycamore trees attract golden phoenix", and population migration is an important reason. During the 10 years from "Sixth General Plan" to "Seventh General Plan", a large number of young people poured into mega-cities and injected fresh blood into urban development. In recent years, cities have launched a "war of grabbing people" to attract talents to work and settle down, and various attractive settlement policies are dizzying.

　　The high-quality development of regional economy has provided more development opportunities for all kinds of talents. Not long ago, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the Planning Outline for the Construction of Twin Cities Economic Circle in Chengdu-Chongqing Region, which set the tone for writing a new chapter in Chengdu-Chongqing "Tale of Two Cities" and strengthened the confidence of many young people to develop here. "The ancients said ‘ Less into Shu ’ I think the city of Chengdu is also very suitable for struggle. Many young people around me like the pace of life and development opportunities here. " Chai Yun, a 27-year-old Chengdu youth who returned to his hometown after graduation, said.

　　"Young people have chosen this city, and this city will also bring surprises to young people who choose her." Chai Yun believes that the high-quality development of the twin-city economic circle in Chengdu-Chongqing region will reach a higher level in the future. In recent years, with the economic and social development of Chengdu-Chongqing region, the population size and economic aggregate of the western Gemini have been rising continuously. By the end of October, 67 major projects with a total investment of 1.57 trillion yuan had been started in Sichuan and Chongqing in 2021, with a cumulative investment of 186.68 billion yuan. This time, Chengdu has entered the ranks of megacities after Chongqing, which is expected by most people.

　　Dongguan, Shenzhen is "young", and Beijing and Shanghai are aging.

　　Megacity and megacity are not just a title.

　　On the one hand, the number of urban permanent residents is an important "threshold" for urban development and construction. It is understood that according to the relevant regulations, the resident population of urban areas that are currently applying for the construction of subways should be more than 3 million. At the same time, according to the regulations of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the Emergency Management Department, cities with a permanent population of less than 3 million in urban areas are not allowed to build super-high-rise buildings with a height of more than 250 meters; Cities with a permanent population of more than 3 million shall not build super high-rise buildings of more than 500 meters.

　　On the other hand, megacities have played an important role in promoting China’s economic growth. Ning Ji Zhe, director of the National Bureau of Statistics, said earlier that since the reform and opening up, first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Guangzhou, as well as other super-large cities, have witnessed substantial economic growth, a significant increase in population, continuous opening-up and vigorous development of social undertakings, which have become an important engine for China’s economic growth, an important hub for opening up to the outside world and an important support for national governance.

　　The population structure of mega-cities has a far-reaching impact on the future development of cities and has attracted much attention.

　　Which cities are the youngest? According to the data of "Qipu", the proportion of people over 60 years old in Shenzhen and Dongguan is about 5%, which is significantly lower than that in other megacities.

　　Which cities have the most "silver-haired people"? Looking at the proportion of people over 60 years old, the two first-tier cities, Beijing and Shanghai, have a high degree of population aging. Shanghai’s population over the age of 60 accounts for 23.38%, ranking second among all megacities; The proportion of people over 60 in Beijing is also close to 20%. At the same time, most of the mega-cities with a population over 60 years old of more than 20% are located in the north, among which Dalian in the northeast ranks first, and the proportion of people over 60 years old in Harbin and Shenyang is also at a high level.

　　Lu Jiehua, a professor of sociology in Peking University, analyzed that the low fertility rate is the primary factor leading to the deepening of population aging in megacities. In addition, the higher supply level of old-age services in megacities attracts the elderly to settle down with their children, and the outflow of labor force also leads to the aging of some megacities.

　　Analysts pointed out that megacities have the opportunity to turn population aging into development opportunities. Among them, first-tier cities need to pay attention to cost and service. Ning Ji Zhe said that at present, the overall level of pension and social security in first-tier cities is relatively high, and the average life expectancy is above 80 years, ranking among the best in various cities. "What needs to be improved is to control costs and improve services".

　　"While controlling costs and improving services, we should also pay attention to the imbalance in the supply of old-age services between different cities." Lu Jiehua said that in first-tier cities and other megacities with high economic and social development level, the pension level and the income of the elderly are relatively high, and the inflow of young working people has largely offset the impact of the aging population, and the supply level of old-age services is relatively high and mutual assistance is strong. At the same time, the inflow of young people in some megacities represented by Northeast China is less, and compared with the former, it is "older" and "older faster", and the problem that the supply level of old-age services does not adapt to the process of population aging is prominent. To this end, we should promote a more balanced allocation of resources for aged care services among different cities.

　　Optimize and promote the core competitiveness of mega-cities

　　Not only does it attract population focus, but mega-cities also play an increasingly prominent role in leading regional economic development.

　　In the first three quarters of this year, the GDP of seven mega-cities including Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Tianjin and Chengdu all exceeded 1 trillion yuan. Among them, Shanghai’s GDP first exceeded 3 trillion yuan, reaching 3,086.673 billion yuan. Beijing’s GDP in the first three quarters was 2,975.30 billion yuan. It is estimated that the annual GDP of the two places is expected to exceed 4 trillion yuan.

　　In the first three quarters of 14 mega-cities, the GDP of most of them reached more than 500 billion yuan, among which the GDP of Changsha, a "new member" of this mega-city, was 958.698 billion yuan in the first three quarters, which was close to the threshold of one trillion yuan.

　　During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, how to improve the spatial layout of urbanization and optimize the function of the central city of megacities? Ning Ji Zhe introduced that the relevant planning and deployment have the following points:

　　— — Promote the high-quality and sustainable development of megacities. Including promoting the transformation of development and construction methods in megacities and strengthening the prevention and control of urban governance risks; Promote the transformation of urban development mode from scale expansion to connotation promotion; Steadily improve the level of social security and the modernization level of urban governance; Strengthen the central radiation function of megacities, better promote rural revitalization and promote urban-rural integration and development.

　　— — Reasonably reduce the development intensity and population density of megacities. Orderly deconstruct the functions and facilities of general manufacturing, regional logistics bases, professional markets and over-concentrated public resources in the central city, and strengthen risk prevention and control in urban governance.

　　— — Optimize and promote the core competitiveness of mega-cities Strengthen the global resource allocation, the source of scientific and technological innovation and the leading function of high-end industries, take the lead in forming an industrial structure with modern service industry as the main body and advanced manufacturing industry as the support, and enhance the comprehensive energy level and international competitiveness.

　　Lu Jiehua believes: "The driving force and vitality of the development of mega-cities not only comes from scale expansion, but also from structural optimization and connotation improvement." He said that in the process of promoting the high-quality and sustainable development of mega-cities, on the one hand, it is necessary to scientifically plan the urban production, living and ecological space, optimize the spatial distribution of various facilities and functions, and strive to improve the population quality while reasonably reducing the population density; On the other hand, it is necessary to provide better basic public services, solidly practice the "basic skills" of urban development such as housing, education, medical care and old-age care, improve the level of social security and the modernization level of urban governance, and provide a stable guarantee for residents to live and work in peace and contentment. In addition, we should give full play to the role of agglomeration and radiation of mega-cities to better serve the optimization of spatial pattern of economic development and regional coordinated development, and drive the high-quality economic development of China.

Indian officials admitted that the computer network of the largest Kudankulam nuclear power plant was attacked from outside in October. The nuclear power plant is mainly designed and supplied by Russia with reactor units to provide electricity for the southern power grid of India. This nuclear power plant has become one of the largest cooperation projects between India and Russia.

According to the American Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, although the reactor operation of Kudankulam nuclear power plant has not been affected, this incident once again warns that the two biggest security risks of human society, namely cyber attacks and nuclear deterrence, are in a dangerous "collision", and its serious consequences may completely turn into uncontrollable man-made disasters.

Kudankulam nuclear power plant　

There have been more than 20 cyber attacks on nuclear facilities in the past 30 years.

The cyber attack on India’s nuclear power plant naturally reminds people of the past when Iran’s nuclear power plant was attacked by the "Shenzhen" virus in 2010, resulting in the paralysis of more than 1,000 centrifuges. In fact, the incidents of cyber attacks on nuclear power plants continue.

According to media reports, there have been more than 20 known cyber attacks against nuclear facilities since 1990. These incidents include malicious intrusions caused by software vulnerabilities and test updates. Although compared with the "Shenzhen" virus incident, these are not well known, but it also clearly shows that nuclear facilities can no longer be spared from cyber attacks. Cyber attacks on nuclear power plants may lead to great disasters and should be highly valued.

For all this, the initiator of cyber warfare and nuclear weapons, the clearer the result, the more fearful the psychology. The United States has regarded cyber attacks as the primary threat beyond terrorism. As early as 2009, after Obama, the "cyber president", took office, he immediately launched a 60-day cyberspace security assessment, and immediately took cyber security, nuclear security and combating terrorism as a "trinity" national strategy. Former US National Intelligence Director and Admiral Mike McConnell once pointed out that "terrorist organizations will master complex network technologies sooner or later, just like nuclear proliferation, but it is easier for them to achieve."

Informatization is a "double-edged sword", which is a golden opportunity and contains unprecedented risks. As the digitalization of nuclear reactor instruments and control systems increases, the possibility of harm caused by malicious and unexpected network attacks is also increasing. At the same time, according to a report published by Chatham House, a British think tank, in 2015, network security is a common shortcoming in the nuclear power industry, which runs through management, training and user behavior. Both natural loopholes and man-made defects may become convenient doors for cyber attacks and directly ignite the fuse of nuclear facilities out of control.

The consequences may be as the then US Secretary of Defense Panetta warned on October 11, 2012, "Cyber attacks can destroy the operation of passenger trains, pollute water supply or shut down most of the electricity supply in the United States, which can be the online version of Pearl Harbor incident, causing a lot of physical damage and casualties, paralyzing daily operations, shocking people and creating new fears."

The accident at Chernobyl nuclear power plant left a deep impression on the world.　　

Indian nuclear power plant or infected with Trojan virus

The malware infected in the intranet of India’s nuclear power plant is said to have been developed by a hacker organization in a certain country and belongs to the variant of backdoor Trojan horse. Its functions include stealing keyboard records of devices, retrieving browser history records, and listing running processes, etc. It does not seem to be a malicious direct destructive virus. But not coincidentally, just a few days before the media reported the cyber attack, the nuclear power plant unexpectedly shut down a reactor. Although the relevant institutions strongly deny that the incident is related to the invasion of malicious software, the consequences of the network attack on the power grid are likely to be unpredictable and more difficult to control.

The thrilling collapse of Ukrainian power grid in the cold winter of 2015 was considered by Russian hackers. In March this year, Venezuela’s national power grid was paralyzed in a large area, and its president and information minister called it a cyber war carefully planned by the United States. In June this year, the suspense of multi-country power grid paralysis in South America, Russian experts must be American cyber warfare exercises, in an attempt to trigger social unrest in the region. In fact, including the rumors of American officials that their cyber forces preset malicious code in the Russian power grid, there is a shadow of "undeclared war" behind them, which represents a new invasion mode that can quietly cause large-scale damage; Even more, the fear of "cutting the bottom of the pot" is enough to destroy the electric energy that modern society depends on and cause the paralysis of the whole society.

Besides, the terrorists haven’t stopped thinking for a moment. The demonstration effect of the network power makes the terrorists’ hearts beat faster, and it is very likely that they will finally master the advanced cyber attack technology. The world has long been alert to this. On December 17, 2013, the United Nations Security Council unanimously adopted Resolution 2129, explicitly cracking down on the use of the Internet to commit terrorist acts. However, at present, cyber terrorism is only in the initial stage of development, that is, using the network for mobilization, publicity, series connection, fund-raising and other activities. Once terrorists master the leading technology of cyber attacks, it is entirely possible to cause heavy casualties. This is the "cyber 911" or "cyber Pearl Harbor" incident that senior American officials have been warning about.

In recent years, the US military and intelligence departments have vigorously developed cyber attack weapons, which has increased the risk of the proliferation of cyber weapons.

Be wary of the integration of cyber attacks with nuclear disasters and terrorism.

The United States regards cyber security, nuclear deterrence and counter-terrorism as a "trinity" national strategy, but the result is not satisfactory, but there are bad signs of the convergence of the three major risks. Although there are many reasons for this, the "law of the jungle", double standards and hegemonic thinking that it has been pursuing are hard to escape. From the "Shenzhen" virus to the release of the "eternal blue" weapon, it undoubtedly gives terrorists technical guidance and demonstration effect, and combating cyber terrorism has become a common difficulty for human society. To find a solution, we should not only devote ourselves to the difficult process of destroying nuclear weapons, but also strictly control the uncontrolled implementation of cyber attacks and prevent the creation of a breeding ground for terrorism.

Regarding the lessons that should be learned from the cyber attack on India’s nuclear power plant, the focus is on safety culture. The Hague Communiqué in 2014 also listed nuclear safety culture as the first of the three pillars of nuclear safety. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) of the United States has put forward guidelines to its operators for human resources development and performance evaluation to improve the network security of nuclear power plants. The National Nuclear Military Administration (NNSA) of the United States has incorporated network security into its security assessment, technical exchange and training plan. The United States has also cooperated with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to develop a network security training course for nuclear power plant operators; The International Atomic Energy Agency has also published a technical guide on computer security, and has also held a network security course for nuclear power plant operators for the first time. Organizations such as the World Nuclear Safety Association and the World Association of Nuclear Operators can also share information on best practices.

Despite such efforts, it is not enough. Although the lack of safety culture needs to be solved urgently, the harm of jungle culture is even greater, which is the real catalyst for the integration of cyber attacks, nuclear disasters and terrorism. The nuclear explosion in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 should not be forgotten. In 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant exploded, and the radiation pollution was 100 times that of the atomic bomb explosion in Hiroshima, Japan. The Fukushima incident in 2011 shocked the whole world, and more than 200,000 people were directly implicated. Eight years later, the impact has not been completely eliminated.

To this end, in the face of cyber attacks on India’s nuclear facilities and concerns about cyber terrorism, we need to warn again: First, cyberspace is interconnected, and no one can be immune to it. The shortcomings of others may be the springboard to attack you; Second, cyber attacks on nuclear facilities are fundamentally different from those in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and it is impossible to enjoy the fruits of nuclear deterrence without suffering from nuclear explosions after dropping nuclear bombs; Third, human society must abandon the "jungle law" and firmly establish a new culture of "cyberspace destiny community" in order to make cyberspace a common well-being.

    March 22nd, 2024 is the 32nd World Water Day, and March 22nd-28th is the 37th China Water Week. On the occasion of World Water Day on March 22nd, Chongqing Water Supply Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Municipal Water Supply Company") held a series of public open days of World Water Day in 2024 with the theme of "giving priority to water conservation and promoting high-quality development".

    "Please come in" and "Go in" to promote water conservation and protection.

    On the afternoon of March 20th, the Municipal Water Supply Company launched the theme activity of "Persisting in saving water and giving priority to promoting high-quality development". User representatives from 11 enterprises and institutions, including Chongqing University, Sichuan International Studies University, Chongqing Nankai Middle School, the First Affiliated Hospital of PLA Army Medical University (Southwest Hospital), Yubei Road Street in Shapingba District, Chongqing Ronghui Hot Spring Industry Development Co., Ltd., were invited to walk into Shapingba Waterworks of the municipal water supply company, and visit the facilities in the plant, such as distribution wells, sedimentation tanks, V-type filters, sodium hypochlorite storage tanks, clean pools, secondary pump houses, etc., to learn about the technological process of making water from tap water.

    "By looking at the technological process of tap water production on the spot, I can understand the water quality guarantee measures and water supply service system of the municipal tap water company, which makes me more assured about the safety of drinking water." Mr. Wen, representative of Chongqing Ronghui Hot Spring Industry Development Co., Ltd. said.

    "Shapingba Water Plant has been put into operation since 1958 and has a history of 65 years. Since the establishment of the factory, it has closely followed the trend of scientific and technological innovation and industry development, effectively improved the city’s water supply capacity, and met the people’s demand for high-quality and healthy life. " Man Long, a member of the production department of Shapingba Waterworks, said that the current water supply capacity of the Waterworks is 200,000 m3/d, serving more than 1 million people.

    It is understood that in order to let more people know about the production process of tap water and cultivate the awareness of cherishing water resources, the Municipal Water Supply Company will also organize a "tap water school" activity, and the staff of the water plant will go into Renhe Street Primary School, Yucai Experimental School, Ertang Primary School in Sha District and Chongqing Business School to give lectures on tap water science.

    At the same time, Yuzhong District Water Plant, Heshang Shanshui Plant, Wellhead Water Plant and Fengshouba Water Plant under the Municipal Water Supply Company will carry out water supply business consultation, water quality knowledge publicity, soliciting opinions and suggestions, voluntary maintenance and other activities during World Water Day and China Water Week, so as to popularize the "Regulations on Urban Water Supply and Water Saving in Chongqing" and the knowledge of water saving and water use, and fully promote the establishment of "National Water-saving City".

    The level of water resources management has been further improved through the empowerment of digital intelligence.

    It is understood that since the expansion and transformation of Shapingba Waterworks in 2006, although some automation systems have been built, they have been in operation for 16 years due to imperfect functions at that time. In 2021, under the unified deployment of Chongqing Water Group, the municipal water supply company took the lead in carrying out the pilot demonstration construction of smart water plant in Shapingba Water Plant, mainly including the renovation of automation equipment and the pilot demonstration project of smart water plant (construction of transportation management platform).

    "This transformation completed the update of automatic control and monitoring equipment, and at the same time transformed the network to form an industrial control ring network, which improved the stability of the network and transmission, and re-established a set of SCADA control system." Na Xin, deputy secretary of the Party Committee and general manager of the Municipal Water Supply Company, said that after the transformation, the functions of remote one-step start-stop and automatic sludge discharge of the unit were realized, and most of the equipment was remotely controlled and monitored, and three advanced process controls were realized: intelligent dosing, intelligent chlorination and intelligent backwashing of the filter.

    According to reports, the intelligent transportation management platform enables operators to complete all-round monitoring of equipment; The 3D visual modeling of the platform can intuitively show the specific information of the main factory’s processes, pipelines and equipment, which is convenient for personnel to understand and master relevant business knowledge. At the same time, the platform can also realize the management functions of production data, equipment, work orders, videos, alarms and reports, improve the level of digital management and help digital transformation.

    Na Xin said that the smart water plant project of Shapingba Water Plant, as a pilot demonstration project of smart water plant of the municipal water supply company, has promoted the steady development of Shapingba Water Plant from "digitalization" to "intelligence". After the implementation of the project, the production, operation and management of Shapingba Water Plant have been greatly improved. (Wang Cailing)

　　Cctv news: "laughing gas", the scientific name is nitrous oxide. It is named "laughing gas" because it has a slight anesthetic effect and can make people laugh. In March this year, the police in Changchun, Jilin Province cracked a case of illegally operating "laughing gas". Recently (April 19th), the suspect Chen Mou was transferred to the court.

　　At the beginning of January this year, the police of Nanhu Road Police Station of Chaoyang Branch of Changchun Public Security Bureau received an alarm from a middle school student’s parents that his son suddenly disappeared, and the police quickly dispatched police to help find it. The next day, the police found the missing child in a bathing center.

　　After careful inquiry, the police found that the child bought "laughing gas" from Chen Mou, who works in a bar, and smoked it.

　　Subsequently, the police immediately set up a task force to carry out investigation. After information screening and visits, on January 28th this year, the police arrested the suspect Chen Mou.

　　Chen Mou, the suspect, confessed that he bought a lot of goods from the south and transported them to his rental point through logistics. Then Chen Mou sold "laughing gas" in WeChat friends circle and bars, mainly targeting teenagers. From the beginning of October to the end of December last year, the sales of "laughing gas" in Chen Mou reached more than 200,000 yuan. At present, the suspect Chen Mou has been transferred to court by the police.

　　It is understood that the scientific name of "laughing gas" is nitrous oxide. Medically, it is often used in combination with oxygen as an anesthetic to achieve analgesic effect; But smoking "laughing gas" is very harmful to human body.
