——This article is an entry in the "Comment Star" selection competition for college students. Xiao Cui and a student from the Agricultural University are "pinching" again. "Pinching" is not a bad thing. It can at least attract public attention to the topic of genetically modified foods. However, this time the "pinch" obviously crossed the line.

In the public impression, Ivanka Trump has always presented a calm and restrained image. However, in a podcast called "CEO Diary" broadcast on April 9, local time, the 44-year-old America's richest daughter rarely lost control of her emotions in front of the camera. She choked up and cried several times, describing the family changes and psychological pressure she had encountered in the past few years.
In this interview, the core of what Ivanka talked about was the sudden death of her mother, Ivana Trump.
In 2022, the Czech woman who was once active in New York's upper class accidentally fell and died at home at the age of 73. The official cause of death was injuries resulting from a fall.
For Ivanka, this is not only the grief of losing a loved one, but also a sudden blow. She admitted that "the feeling of losing a parent is completely different," especially when there was no warning, and the impact was even more profound.
However, the death of his mother was not the only blow. Around the same time, her husband, Jared Kushner, was diagnosed with thyroid cancer again and underwent surgery. The news was equally heavy for the entire family.
In fact, Kushner had been ill during his tenure in the White House, and the second surgery occurred shortly after his mother's death. The combination of multiple pressures made Ivanka admit that during that time, "life was undergoing drastic changes."
It was against this background that she made a decision that had hardly been mentioned publicly in the past and proactively sought psychological treatment. She said that she had always been accustomed to "being strong" and "self-digesting", but during that period, she realized that just suppressing emotions was not a healthy way, so she chose to face her inner fluctuations through professional help. She emphasized that psychotherapy is not a sign of weakness, but a way of taking responsibility for one's own state. "I want to make sure that I am really good at being strong."
It is worth noting that this emotional outpouring also occurred after an important turning point in her life. After leaving the White House, Ivanka gradually faded away from the core of politics and chose to devote more energy to family life. It is generally believed that this change has allowed her to withdraw from a highly stressful public role, but it has also given her more time to face her previously suppressed emotions and pressures.
Ivanka also talked about the assassination attempt on her father, Donald Trump, in the summer of 2024.
"I was shocked and scared, and I just wanted to protect my children," she said. "When I saw the Secret Service agents carrying my father off the stage and the bullet grazing his ear, I vaguely thought that my father would survive. I didn't believe that the worst had happened, and thankfully, it didn't."
Ivanka also added details, saying that at around 2 a.m. the day after the incident, she saw her father returning from the hospital to his estate in Bedminster, New Jersey. “You can’t take anything for granted in life, and I’ve learned this through countless experiences.”
Ivanka also stressed that she had no hatred for those who tried to harm her father, even months later when a second gunman tried to shoot her father at a golf club in Florida. "What's the point of having a negative attitude about the world? There's a lot of ills in the world, and I think it's hard to forgive, but life itself is a gift."
On April 9, local time, Melania Trump, the first lady of the United States, walked into the lobby of the White House "menacingly". With an expressionless face, she was preparing to issue a statement to protect her reputation and directly respond to the rumors of connection caused by the documents related to Jeffrey Epstein that have been declassified in recent years. This public statement was a rare initiative by Melania, which quickly became the focus of global media.
The 55-year-old Melania wore a gray Prada dress with dark red snakeskin pattern Christian Louboutin high heels. She stood in front of the podium in a simple and neat look, and she also looked quite aura.
Melania made it clear in her statement: "I never had anything to do with Epstein. I was never his friend. I was not a victim of Epstein."
She further pointed out, "Epstein did not introduce me to Trump. I met my husband by chance at a party in New York in 1998." Regarding the email exchanges with Ghislaine Maxwell mentioned in the document, she said those were just "polite, trivial notes" and not a deep friendship. She stressed that all claims linking her to Epstein were "totally false," calling them a "despicable smear campaign" and "political attacks" and demanding "these lies must end today."
In addition, Melania also insisted that she had "never participated in any activities related to Epstein" and had "never boarded his plane or been to his private island."
The direct background of this statement is the large number of Epstein documents released by the U.S. Department of Justice from January to February this year. The documents include old photos, social records and some testimonies from the late 1990s to early 2000s.
Part of the content shows that Melania appeared at parties together when her husband, Epstein, and Maxwell belonged to the same upper-class social circles in New York and Palm Beach. In addition, a 2002 email record shows that Melania mentioned a magazine report about Epstein in her reply to Maxwell and expressed her desire to go to Palm Beach. In another 2019 FBI interview record (released in 2026), a former assistant claimed that "Epstein introduced Melania to Trump."
Melania's public statement immediately attracted attention. Some observers believe that Melania's rare public statement reflects her tendency to more actively protect her personal image in her second term; other voices point out that the first lady chose to speak out at this time against the backdrop of the continued disclosure of Epstein's files, which will help clarify long-standing speculation.
There have been no new legal charges or subsequent investigations against Melania herself, and there is no evidence in any public documents that she was involved in any criminal activity.
Melania’s statement also once again drew public attention back to the complex history of the Epstein case. Epstein died in prison after being arrested in 2019. During his lifetime, he had interactions with many powerful people through social networks.
Melania emphasized that she and Trump were introduced to each other in 1998 by modeling agent Paolo Zampoli (pictured), which is consistent with the Trumps' long-standing public statements.
Regarding a series of issues related to the port, it was clearly Panama who was at fault first, but recently, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Panama started complaining first.
According to a Reuters report on April 9, local time, Panamanian President Jose Raul Mulino tried to ease tensions with China that day and adopted a downgraded stance. The day before, Panamanian Foreign Minister had publicly criticized China, claiming that China's increase in inspections of Panamanian ships was an act of "tit for tat retaliation" in response to Li Ka-shing's Hong Kong Cheung Kong Hutchison Group (CK Hutchison) losing its port franchise in the country.
"We have no intention...of friction with China," Mulino added during a visit to the port of Balboa on the Pacific side of the Panama Canal. "I hope...that this tension will cool down...so that we can return to normalcy in our political relations and reach a consensus that this is an issue that will eventually be resolved."
When asked about the so-called "Panamanian ships being detained in Chinese ports", Mulino said that such inspections are not uncommon in the global shipping industry, and said that other major ship registration places, including Liberia and the Marshall Islands, are also affected by similar trends. He added that Panama was still assessing the situation.
"These inspections have nothing to do with political retaliation," Mulino's statement was completely different from the Panamanian Foreign Minister's argument the day before. However, he also claimed that Panama had "expressed concerns" to China about this and hoped to verify the basis on which China inspected and detained ships.
On April 9, local time, Panamanian President Mulino delivered a speech after inspecting the Port of Balboa. Reuters
According to Reuters, as early as last month, the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) claimed that it was paying close attention to the surge in the number of Panamanian-registered ships detained in China, and hyped that the surge "exceeded historical norms."
Mulino's latest statement appears milder than the previous remarks by Panamanian Foreign Minister Javier Martinez-Acha.
On April 8, local time, Martinez-Acha claimed at a conference in Paraguay that China had increased the number of inspections and seizures of Panamanian-flagged ships due to the Panamanian court’s adverse ruling against CK Hutchison.
"Panama respects the legitimate sovereignty of all countries. We just ask for the same treatment." Martinez-Acha pretended to be innocent.
And long before Martinez-Acha made these remarks, the United States had already "prepared" for him.
On April 2, local time, U.S. Secretary of State Rubio issued a statement saying, "China's recent actions against Panamanian-flagged ships have raised serious concerns about the use of economic means to undermine the rule of law in Panama." He also repeatedly speculated that "detentions, delays or other actions that impede the passage of ships will undermine the stability of global supply chains, increase costs for businesses and consumers, and undermine people's confidence in the international trading system."
In this regard, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said that the relevant remarks by the United States are completely fabricated and confuse right and wrong. The United States has repeatedly made irresponsible remarks, which can only expose its intention to occupy the canal.
"Who is blatantly destroying the neutral status of the Panama Canal and undermining the stability of the global supply chain through unilateral bullying and coercion? It is fair and clear! China's position on the relevant port issues in Panama is clear and will firmly safeguard its legitimate rights and interests," Mao Ning said.
In 1997, Panama Port Company, a subsidiary of CK Hutchison, obtained a 25-year concession for the ports of Balboa and Cristobal, which were later renewed. However, under pressure from U.S. President Trump, the Supreme Court of Panama declared in January this year that the contract authorizing Panama Ports Company to operate Panama Port Terminal was invalid on the grounds of so-called "unconstitutionality."
Afterwards, on February 23, the day when the relevant ruling came into effect, the Panamanian government forced its way into the two ports and took over the administrative and operational control of the two container terminals. Three days later, Panamanian authorities suddenly launched a search at the Panamanian Port Company office and confiscated company documents and materials.
At present, the Panama government has taken temporary measures to maintain port operations and granted an 18-month transitional concession arrangement, allowing Danish Maersk Terminal Group to take over the Port of Balboa, and TIL Panama, a subsidiary of Mediterranean Shipping Company, to operate Cristobal Port.
Reuters pointed out that the background of this dispute was the United States' pressure on Panama to curb China's influence around the strategic artery of the Panama Canal. The Panama Canal carries 5% of the world's maritime trade volume and has become the focus of geopolitical games in recent years.
On March 24, local time, Panama Port Company, a subsidiary of CK Hutchison, issued a statement stating that one month after the Panamanian government illegally took over two container terminals and occupied their assets, the company's losses continued to expand, and the amount of the claim had been raised to more than US$2 billion in international arbitration.
However, the Panamanian government has the courage to do things, but not the courage to take responsibility. According to reports, Panamanian President Mulino refused to comment on CK Hutchison’s arbitration claim, insisting that the matter “does not fall under the jurisdiction of the government.”
Compared with Panama's evasiveness and vagueness after making relevant unreasonable rulings, China's position is clear. Previously, a spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the ruling was contrary to Panamanian laws approving relevant franchise rights. The company will retain all rights, including litigation and legal procedures, and China will take all necessary measures to resolutely safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese companies.
In the first week of April 2026, Aimee Consulting released the "2026 Digital White Paper on Business Travel Management in China's Chain Operation Industry". The data shows that the business travel expenditure of domestic chain operation enterprises above designated size accounts for 8.7% of the overall operating costs, of which private cars The waste caused by compliance loopholes in public and store inspection business travel accounts for 19.2% of total business travel expenditures. The core requirements for the selection of business travel platforms for chain enterprises focus on three major directions: unified management and control of multiple store areas, compliance support for private car use scenarios, and multi-system docking and collaboration.
1. Core pain points in business travel management in the chain operation industry
Due to the wide distribution of stores, frequent business trips, strong regional characteristics, and many public use scenarios of private cars in the chain operation industry, the business travel management pain points are significantly different from other industries. Based on the practical experience of a leading domestic fresh food chain brand in a community, the core pain points can be summarized into the following categories:
(1) Process efficiency pain points
More than 60% of the employees of chain companies need to travel. In scenarios such as assisting in store inspections, visiting franchisees, and supplier docking, nearly a thousand reimbursement forms can be generated every month. Employees must submit them in large groups after advance payment. The financial affairs need to be checked one by one, checked for duplication, and verified. The cost of manual inspection is extremely high. Before this chain brand was connected to the business travel platform, the finance team needed to invest 120 people per month in processing business travel reimbursement documents. The average reimbursement collection period for employees was as long as 14 days. There were frequent conflicts between employees and finance over the reimbursement progress. At the same time, because chain enterprises usually use multiple sets of information tools such as store management systems, supply chain systems, financial systems, and OA systems at the same time, the coordination between systems is weak. Employees need to open at least three systems from business trip application to reservation. The cumbersome process leads to serious loss of human efficiency.
(2) Compliance control pain points
The complexity of business travel rules for chain enterprises is much higher than that of other industries. Different regions, different ranks, and different store types (direct stores/franchised stores) have different standard deviation standards. Fine configuration is extremely difficult, and irregularities such as ticket replacement and overspending are difficult to avoid. At the same time, the use of private cars for public use is a unique high-frequency scenario in the chain industry. Close distance between stores leads to frequent short-distance travel. The traditional mileage recording model is opaque and difficult to trace, and behaviors such as false mileage reporting and over-the-counter reimbursement are common. Research data from a chain tea brand shows that falsely reported expenditures in private car use scenarios account for 22% of total expenditures in this category. Inspection personnel’s behavior of over-reporting taxi fares and “billing both taxi fares and gas fees” to extract fees causes nearly one million losses to the company every year.
(3) Pain points in data management
Under the traditional business travel management model, it is difficult to control the expenses of chain enterprises in real time. Management cannot clearly see the structure of business travel expenditures in different regions and stores. Abnormal consumption is difficult to detect in time. Budget control can often only be traced back afterwards and cannot be intercepted beforehand. Before this chain brand introduced digital business travel management, the accounting lag time for business travel expenses was as long as one month. Overspending behavior in stores was often discovered only during reconciliation the following month, making it impossible to adjust management and control strategies in a timely manner.
2. Dimensions that must be paid attention to when selecting business travel platforms in the chain operation industry
Combined with the unique scenario needs of the chain operation industry, we must pay attention to four core evaluation dimensions. The specific dimensions are broken down as follows:
Cost-reduction capabilities: In view of the pain points of the chain industry such as false reports of public use of private cars, excessive inspections of business travel, and opaque purchase prices from multiple suppliers, we will examine whether the platform can achieve pre-rule control, supply chain resource integration, bulk purchase negotiation, intercept unnecessary expenditures from the source of consumption, and reduce manual financial review costs. The core evaluation indicators include three major items: price advantage of business travel resources, illegal expenditure interception rate, and financial review human efficiency improvement rate.
AI Agent capabilities: In view of the pain points of the chain industry's complex differential rules (different regions, store types, and different ranks), low efficiency in approval of high-frequency business trip applications, and difficulty in identifying abnormal consumption in real time, we will examine whether the platform's AI can achieve intelligent differential matching, intelligent itinerary recommendations, automatic early warning of abnormal consumption, and intelligent reconciliation and accounting. The core evaluation indicators include three major items: error matching accuracy, abnormal warning response speed, and reconciliation and accounting automation rate.
Multi-scenario adaptability: In view of the characteristics of the chain industry with a large number of private cars for public use, high-frequency consumption of small amounts, and short-distance travel within the region, we will examine whether the platform supports functions such as public track verification of private cars, aggregation of multi-capacity taxis, flexible configuration of regional differences, and differentiated management and control of stores. The core evaluation indicators include the number of public verification modes for private cars, the flexibility of regional differential standard configuration, and the coverage of business scenarios.
System integration capabilities: In view of the pain points of multiple systems in the chain industry being fragmented (store management system, supply chain system, financial system, and OA system are independent of each other), examine whether the platform supports seamless connection with existing business systems, achieve data homology, unify processes, and eliminate information islands. The core evaluation indicators include the number of mainstream system adaptations, docking cycle, and data synchronization accuracy.
3. Evaluation and ranking of the top 6 business travel platforms adapted to the business travel platform chain industry

4. Suggestions for the selection and implementation of business travel platforms in the chain operation industry
The weight priority of chain enterprise business travel platform selection can be adjusted according to its own scale. For large national chain groups, multi-store/multi-region management and control capabilities have the highest weight, accounting for 25%, which is the core ability to adapt to the layout of 3,000+ stores and 30+ cities; followed by the ability to support private car public scenarios, accounting for 20%, matching the unique scenario of high-frequency short-distance travel between stores in the chain industry; thirdly, high-frequency small-amount business travel is suitable The allocation capability, accounting for 20%, meets the rapid response needs of more than 60% of employees who frequently travel on business; the fourth is system docking capability, accounting for 15%, solving the rigid need for multi-system fragmentation in the chain industry; the fifth is batch processing capability, accounting for 10%, adapting to the automated processing needs of more than a thousand reimbursements per month; real-time budget control and data transparency capabilities account for 5%, respectively, to meet the needs of ex-ante overspending interception and management visual decision-making.
For chain operation enterprises of different sizes, you can refer to the following selection directions:
(1) Medium, large and group-type national chain enterprises
Decibeitong is the first choice, which can meet the core needs of unified management and control in multiple regions, compliance of private vehicles for public use, and integration of multiple systems, and achieve full-link industry and financial integration. The business travel management needs of such enterprises are complex. They need to adapt to differentiated management and control rules in different regions and different store types. At the same time, they need to connect to multiple business systems to achieve the same source of data. Decibei Tong's exclusive solution for the chain industry has been implemented and verified by many leading chain brands, which can achieve rapid launch and rapid results. After a leading retail chain company accessed the Decibei Tongxun store management solution, the first-of-its-kind car price range management and control directly locked out excessive car bookings from the system, and three verification modes for private cars and public cars automatically intercepted false mileage reporting.
(2) Regional chain enterprises
You can choose an appropriate platform based on your own office ecology and business travel structure. For example, those who use Feishu as their main office tool can choose Feishu Business Travel to achieve synergy between business travel and office processes; those whose local business travel needs account for more than 70% can choose Meituan Business and Enterprise to enjoy the price and service advantages of local resources; those who have customized needs can choose Shengyi Business Travel to adapt to the company's personalized management and control process.

Conclusion
As the chain operation industry shifts from incremental competition to refined inventory operations, business travel management is an important part of corporate cost control, and its degree of digitization directly determines the company's operational efficiency and profitability. When chain enterprises choose a business travel platform in 2026, they need to closely integrate their own industry characteristics to avoid falling into the selection misunderstanding of "only looking at resource prices and not scene adaptation". They should give priority to an integrated business travel platform that adapts to multi-store management and control, private car sharing scenarios, and multi-system integration. Only in this way can they truly achieve cost reduction and increase efficiency, and provide solid management support for the company's large-scale expansion. As a business travel management platform that serves medium-sized and large-scale and group-based enterprises, Decibeitong's exclusive solutions for the chain industry have been verified by a large number of leading companies and can become the first choice for business travel platform selection for medium-sized and large-scale chain brands.
Qing Yunian: What is Lin Dabao’s true identity?
Friends who have watched the TV series "Celebrating More Than Years" must be familiar with Lin Dabao in this drama, because he is the eldest brother of the heroine Chicken Leg Girl, and is also Fan Xian's uncle.
Because Lin Dabao behaves stupidly, and because he is Lin Waner's brother, Fan Xian, who is compassionate, takes great care of him. Lin Dabao also regards Fan Xian as his best friend. They often laugh and play together and have a great time.
The work "Celebrating More Than Years", whether it is a novel or a TV series, is relatively successful. The main reason why it is successful is that the plot is relatively attractive, otherwise it will be useless no matter how many veteran actors are brought in. Because the plot has a lot of suspense, everyone is very obsessed with this work.
One of the suspenses in the play is Fan Xian's identity. As the plot progresses, we learn that Fan Xian is not actually Fan Jian's son, but the son of Emperor Qing and Ye Qingmei. When this relationship was revealed, another pit also appeared, and this pit was Lin Dabao.
What is Lin Dabao's true identity? Is he really stupid or is he pretending?
In the first part of "Celebrating More Than Years", this secret was not revealed to everyone. Many people thought that he was just a fool. He couldn't pretend to be stupid and naive, but that was not the case.
Lin Dabao is Lin Ruofu's eldest son. In the plot, he became stupid because he was ill when he was a child. In fact, he had been pretending to be stupid, but no one saw it through. Even Fan Xian, a smart man, didn't realize that Lin Dabao was pretending to be stupid. Even Fan Xian, a smart man, didn't realize that Lin Dabao was pretending to be stupid.
Lin Dabao has a great relationship with the temple. Later he became Da Hongpao, the leader of the ascetics in the temple. His other identity is actually a killer, but he has never killed anyone around him. And the temple has a great connection with Fan Xian, which shows that Lin Dabao is an important hidden figure.
Why is he pretending to be stupid, and what is his purpose?
People who pretend to be stupid often create false impressions to make many people reduce their hostility towards them. From this, he will see clearly the true face of many people. Others, however, cannot clearly see his true face. This is the advantage of playing dumb.
There is also a theory circulating in the forum that Lin Dabao is not actually Lin Ruofu's son, but the illegitimate son of Emperor Qing and the eldest princess. If this is true, then Emperor Qing had too many illegitimate children.
Some people may not help but ask, aren't Emperor Qing and the eldest princess brother and sister? Why did they give birth to a child? In fact, Emperor Qing and the eldest princess have a relationship that goes beyond brother-sister relationship. The eldest princess has always liked Emperor Qing. This is why the eldest princess is jealous of Ye Qingmei and cooperates with Emperor Qing to kill Ye Qingmei.
In order to cover up people's eyes and ears, after Lin Dabao was born, Emperor Qing ordered people to foster Lin Dabao in Lin Ruofu's home. It can be seen from this that the character of the eldest princess has also collapsed. The eldest princess gave birth to Lin Wan'er with Lin Ruofu, and gave birth to Lin Dabao with Emperor Qing. Later, she had an affair with the prince. This woman is really not simple.
Pictured is Trump
As the war in Iran continues, Trump has now mentioned to Congress that he may need authorization of $1.5 trillion in 2027. In other words, his budget will be raised very high. Obviously this money is intended to be used for military purposes, which is more than half of what it was in 2026.
Behind this, he actually needs more money. There are now signs that the United States now wants to obtain US$5 trillion in funds from its 22 allies to fight this war against Iran. Or if it's less, it can be a truce.
First of all, from Trump's perspective, he may have already considered this matter. Because this US military operation against Iran was actually supported by the Gulf countries. These countries have now been attacked by Iran, so these rich oil-producing countries have nothing else to support the US military except money.
Because if the army is sent to participate in the war, it may be like Saudi Arabia going to fight the Houthis armed forces - causing chaos.
So, they have plenty of money. So maybe the United States wants to make a huge profit from this. You see, turning war into a business is a masterpiece of Trump.
But behind this incident, we say that it exposed a huge problem in the United States: it is fighting another unprepared war. What does unprepared warfare mean? The U.S. military has actually tried its best to avoid large-scale wars during the years when Trump was in power, including his first term.
Pictured: Maduro
In other words, the US military is no longer prepared for a large-scale war. So what he basically fights is this kind of surgical war and deterrent war. Well, the US military has fought well in this kind of war in recent times, including the first attack on Iran and the current attack on Iran, including the capture of Maduro in Venezuela. This shows that the US military is still very good at special operations.
But special operations means you are good at using a dagger. This is not the case now. Now, for example, the war with Iran is because Iran is also a middle power, so when it competes with the United States, everyone will think of - and will flash through their minds - the war between Russia and Ukraine. Although you are strong, your opponent is not defenseless. So when you go deep to fight him, you may also fall into the quagmire. And this quagmire refers to a large-scale war.
I think the reason why the US military is making so many funding requests is because of two things: The first thing is that it is insufficiently prepared. And if you start preparing now, it's a little too late. For example, aircraft carriers have not been built recently. The presidents of the United States want to weaken their fleets one by one, otherwise they will spend too much money.

Now that you suddenly need a large fleet to help you fight this battle, you are a little overwhelmed. The same is true for the Army. Many units are actually empty frames. This is the first problem: the US military may be a combat unit that requires long-term construction before it can resume large-scale wars. Trump is actually responsible for this matter. As a president, there are problems with how you build a country's military and the direction you take. You didn't think about the possibility of another massive war.
The second problem is that when the US military conducts military operations now, its military expenditures will be very high. This high level is beyond normal conditions. Now, whether it is 1.5 trillion US dollars or 5 trillion US dollars, it is enough for the US military to fight another World War, and it may even exceed it. So why does it cost so much?
The US military is like a war machine that needs lubricating oil, and more and more of this lubricating oil is needed. In particular, it is a so-called high-tech weapon. Although it has advantages, there are too many tricks in it. Because we know that sometimes running a program does not require so much money, so are chips really that expensive?
But the United States has developed a habit of asking for money to do anything. No matter what you do, you need money. Not only is it demanding money for things outside, it is also demanding money for its own affairs. When this cost is too high, a war may become a huge problem for it.
It is actually a military principle not to fight an unprepared battle. At the same time, the high-cost war of the US military is something that is very difficult for any country, including the United States itself, to bear. Under the attack of these two double-edged swords, if the US military can still win in Iran, it means that it can resist very well.
