• Adhere To International Morality And Join Hands To Deal With World Chaos - China's Plan Focusing On Global Governance Has Triggered Heated Discussions

  Xinhua News Agency, Geneva, February 25th: Summary｜The think tank report "Adhering to International Morality and Joining Hands to Cope with World Chaos - Focusing on China's Plan for Global Governance" has triggered heated discussions

  Xinhua News Agency reporter

  On the 24th, Xinhua News Agency, a national high-end think tank, released the think tank report "Adhering to International Morality and Joining Hands to Cope with World Chaos - Focusing on China's Plan for Global Governance" to the world at the Palais des Nations in Geneva, Switzerland. The think tank report triggered heated discussions among people from all walks of life and experts and scholars in related fields.

  The report believes that the current changes in the world over the past century are accelerating and the international situation is intertwined with chaos. The United Nations and multilateralism are under attack, the global governance deficit continues to expand, and the current international mechanisms have exposed multiple shortcomings. The global governance system is in urgent need of reform and improvement. China has proposed global governance initiatives, emphasizing the pursuit of sovereign equality, abiding by international rule of law, practicing multilateralism, advocating people-centeredness, and focusing on action orientation. It has proposed Chinese solutions to promote the construction of a more just and reasonable global governance system, and injected Chinese impetus into revitalizing the core status and leading role of the United Nations.

  Zhai Dongsheng, director of the Institute of Regional and Country Studies at Renmin University of China, said that reforming and improving the global governance system has become a major topic of great concern to the international community. "This report provides ideas for a turbulent and chaotic world and answers a series of major questions such as what, why and how to achieve the future global governance system."

  Xiao Yongping, dean of the Institute of International Rule of Law at Wuhan University, believes that the report systematically explains China’s position on global governance and advocates the construction of a global governance concept that is different from hegemonic logic and embraces consultation, collaboration and sharing. The concepts of multilateralism and win-win cooperation advocated by the Global Governance Initiative are in line with the common expectations of most countries and provide constructive new ideas for solving the dilemma of global governance.

  2026 marks the 55th anniversary of the restoration of the People's Republic of China's lawful seat in the United Nations. As a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, an important member of the Global South, and the largest developing country, China has always been a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development, a defender of the international order, and a provider of public goods.

  "The report systematically sorts out the historical context, practical dilemmas and future trends of global governance, reveals structural problems such as hegemonism's destruction of the international rule of law and insufficient representation of the global South, and details China's sense of direction, roadmap and action in reforming and improving global governance," said Zhai Kun, deputy dean of the Institute of Regional and Country Studies at Peking University.

  Catrougalos, the independent expert on democratic and equitable international order at the United Nations Human Rights Council, said that China plays a pivotal role in the multilateral system. China's initiative on global governance is of great significance, which shows that China actually takes action rather than making verbal statements.

  The report points out that as a responsible major country, China stands at the forefront of the times and is committed to promoting the transformation of initiatives from ideas to actions. It relies on the multilateral platform with the United Nations as the core, and builds a policy system for global governance initiatives with institutional participation, public goods supply and risk management and control as the main body, and effectively promotes the initiatives to take root within the multilateral framework.

  Correa, executive director of the South Center, said that equality, rule of law, coordination, tolerance and action are crucial to maintaining and improving the multilateral system. China has proposed a series of initiatives such as the Global Governance Initiative, which has effectively promoted the continuous development of South-South cooperation. Strengthening collaboration around global governance initiatives will help countries in the Global South play a greater role in global governance.

  Zhang Jie, a researcher at the Institute of Asia-Pacific and Global Strategy, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, believes that the report takes the "four major deficits" of global governance as a starting point, discusses the urgency, necessity and feasibility of global governance initiatives, and comprehensively explains the internal logic of the four major global initiatives. This is a comprehensive management plan proposed by China in the face of the contemporary issues of "what's going on with the world" and "where is humanity going?"

  The report calls on the more difficult the moment, the more important it is to uphold the original intention of peaceful coexistence, strengthen confidence in win-win cooperation, persist in moving forward within the logic of historical progress, and develop in line with the development trend of the times. China will work with other countries to continue to promote global governance in a more just, more reasonable, and more sustainable direction.

  Ouyang Kang, dean of the Institute of National Governance at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, said that as a responsible major country, China is not only a staunch inheritor and defender of traditional globalization and the international system with the United Nations at its core, but also a staunch curber and opponent of anti-globalization, and an advocate and leader of new globalization. China adheres to true inclusive multilateralism, firmly defends international justice, and promotes the construction of a more fair and reasonable global governance system. (over)

• 12306 Responded That The Ticket That Was Successfully Reserved In The Middle Of The Night Was Invalid: The Same Person Bought The Ticket At The Same Time

  Recently, in response to the media report that "12306 tickets successfully waiting for 1,700 yuan in the middle of the night are invalid", the Railway 12306 Technology Center quickly organized forces to conduct verification.

  The background of the 12306 system shows that the 12306 account registered as Chen placed an order at 11:09 on February 19 for 3 second-class seats from Xiamen (Xiamen North) to Yixing on February 23. The selected train number was G1654, the number of passengers was 3, and the prepaid fare was 1674 yuan. The deadline for confirmation was 1 hour before driving. The notification method was WeChat notification for 1 person and SMS notification for 2 people. At 18:44 on February 22, the account placed an order to purchase three second-class tickets for the G1656 train on February 23 with the same passengers. The ticket purchase section was from Xiamen North to Nanjing South. Xiamen North departed at 15:43 and Nanjing South arrived at 22:36. The ticket price was 1,755 yuan. After the ticket purchase was successful, the account did not cancel the previously submitted waitlist order.

  At 2:53 on February 23, the 12306 system confirmed that the waiting order submitted by the account was successfully redeemed. The redemption number was G1654, which departed from Xiamen at 8:50 on February 23 and arrived in Yixing at 15:04. The system immediately sent notifications of successful redemption to the three passengers in accordance with the notification method selected by the account. The notification content included the train number, driving time, etc.

  At 15:43 on February 23, Chen and three others took G1656 from Xiamen North Railway Station and got off at Yixing Station at 21:55.

  According to the ticket purchase rules of the 12306 system, the same passenger cannot purchase two itineraries at the same time. The ride time slots for which the account successfully purchased tickets are Xiamen North at 15:43 and Nanjing South at 22:36. The ride time slots for successful redemption are Xiamen at 8:50 and Yixing at 15:04. The times do not overlap and do not belong to "two itineraries purchased by the same passenger at the same time". The system does not determine it as a itinerary conflict.

  According to the 12306 system waitlist ticket purchase rules, when passengers submit a waitlist order, the system will prompt that "the system continues to cash in 24 hours a day" and "when the cash is successful or automatically terminated, you will be notified through the notification method you choose. Please pay attention to the message and pay attention to the waitlist order cashing status." When the account submitted a waiting order, the system promptly prompted it. After the redemption was successful at 2:53 on February 23, the system simultaneously sent a notification message to Chen and two other passengers. This time was 4 hours and 57 minutes earlier than the deadline for redemption selected when submitting the waiting order.

  According to the ticket change rules of the 12306 system, tickets cannot be refunded after driving. Tickets can be changed once before 24:00 on the day without charge, or once within the pre-sale period, but a handling fee of up to 40% will be charged. Tickets after change cannot be refunded. After the waiting order was successfully redeemed, the account applied twice in the 12306 system to change the three second-class tickets G1654 on the waiting list. The first time it was planned to be changed to the G1654 Xiamen to Yixing section on March 5, and the second time it was planned to be changed to the D3296 Xiamen North to Yixing section on March 8, but in the end, the above two changed orders were canceled during the change payment process, and the change steps were not completed.

  In addition, after verification, the passenger ticket purchase screen shown in the report is not the Railway 12306 website or App page.

  The Railway 12306 Technology Center recommends that passengers must purchase tickets through 12306, the only official platform. When submitting a waitlist ticket purchase order, they must carefully check the waitlist ticket purchase rules published on the 12306 website (including the App). Before the self-selected waitlist redemption deadline, follow the method of receiving notifications you choose and determine, and pay attention to the system notification information in a timely manner; if you purchase tickets for other trains, you must cancel the waitlist ticket purchase order in time. At the same time, the Railway 12306 Technical Center will continue to optimize and improve the waitlist ticket purchase strategy, waitlist redemption rules and notification methods, and strive to provide better services to the majority of passengers.

• New Trends And Changes In Status And Role Of Electromagnetic Space Operations Under Informationized Warfare

  introduction

  With the continuous development of informatization and intelligent technology, electronic countermeasures, as an important means of combat, have significantly surpassed the early scope of combat operations and gradually upgraded to electromagnetic space operations that cover the entire area and profoundly affect the effectiveness of joint operations. At present, the world's new military transformation is accelerating, and electromagnetic space operations with electronic countermeasures as the core are also in a new development period. In this context, recognizing the changing trends of electromagnetic space operations and further deepening the understanding of the laws of electromagnetic space operations is of great significance for the scientific use of electromagnetic space operations forces, effectively improving combat effectiveness, and thus winning informationized and intelligent wars.

  The status role has shifted from "support and guarantee" to "combat means"

  At the beginning of its birth, electronic means were mainly used in combat support and support, and its functional positioning was concentrated in basic combat fields such as communication support, intelligence reconnaissance, and navigation and positioning. With the iterative development of communication electronics technology, the integration of military electronics technology and modern combat systems continues to deepen, and its functions have extended from single support to all-domain combat capabilities. First, it plays the role of a nerve center in the field of combat command and control, and can build a battlefield information network through real-time data links to achieve efficient coordination of multi-domain combat units; second, it plays a core enabling role in the field of fire strike, and can rely on electronic guidance, target identification and damage assessment technology to significantly improve the strike accuracy and damage effectiveness of weapon systems; third, it enhances confrontation effectiveness in the field of system operations, and can use electronic countermeasures, spectrum control and other means to directly weaken the enemy's battlefield perception and command and control capabilities. The functional jump in these three aspects has transformed military electronic technology from a auxiliary element to an important factor that directly affects the effectiveness of the weapon system and even the combat capability of the entire system.

  As informatization and intelligent warfare accelerate, intellectual power has increasingly become the core power to win the future battlefield. The importance of traditional firepower advantage has gradually given way to information advantage, and military electronic technology is the core hub for transforming advantages in the information domain into results in the physical domain. Under this circumstance, military electronic technology has penetrated into all aspects of the entire combat system, giving rise to a new combat style of electromagnetic space warfare. On the modern battlefield, the strike effectiveness of electromagnetic space operations is as important as traditional combat methods, and even more critical in some links. Its combat mechanism mainly revolves around the struggle for electromagnetic power on the battlefield, and achieves combat goals through a systematic approach. Specifically, its effectiveness relies on the four-in-one action framework of "reconnaissance, attack, defense, and management", that is: reconnaissance and mastering the electromagnetic situation on the battlefield, attacking and suppressing the enemy's electromagnetic power, protecting one's own electromagnetic security, and controlling and optimizing the use of spectrum resources. This overall domain combat method based on electromagnetic spectrum full-domain confrontation is becoming an important combat method to support joint operations and seize comprehensive battlefield control.

  The purpose of combat has shifted from "defending oneself against the enemy" to "taking the initiative to attack"

  In traditional offensive and defensive operations, due to factors such as the low level of military electronic technology and the low degree of informatization of weapons and equipment, the purpose of military electronic technology application is mainly focused on passively resisting the enemy's electromagnetic suppression and ensuring one's own electromagnetic safety during combat operations. Even in the late 20th century, electronic countermeasures had developed to a considerable level and scale, but they were still limited to "electromagnetic soft-kill" countermeasures and the use of a small number of anti-radiation missiles. There were few examples of active electromagnetic space operations against the enemy.

  However, with the rapid development of electronic information technology and the widespread deployment of intelligent equipment, the purpose of electromagnetic space operations in the context of joint operations has gradually shifted to proactive attacks. Specifically, electromagnetic space combat forces can not only induce the enemy's advanced sensors to generate virtual images, mislead its intelligent decision-making systems, and take over its unmanned equipment clusters, etc., but can also be mixed with army aviation and long-range fire forces to target important enemy combat nodes and implement multi-frequency domain "soft kills" and integrated "hard destruction." This transformation marks the upgrade of electromagnetic space operations from a purely defensive tool to an offensive means. The combat method emphasizes preemptive strikes, actively interfering and destroying the enemy's electromagnetic activities, weakening its overall combat effectiveness, and thus taking the lead in the early stages of the war. This proactive combat paradigm not only enhances the strategic value of electromagnetic space, but also promotes the deep integration of various services and arms in joint operations, making electromagnetic power a key support for battlefield victory.

  It can be seen that in the future battlefield, the purpose of electromagnetic space operations has gone beyond simply competing for environmental advantages to "preserve oneself and resist the enemy". Its core is accelerating to expand and extend to "active enemy control", that is, through a comprehensive method that combines "soft kill" paralysis and "hard destruction" suppression to achieve deep intervention and effective disintegration of the enemy's combat system. If used properly, the overwhelming advantage of electromagnetic space operations can even achieve the winning effect of "conquering the enemy without fighting."

  The combat relationship has shifted from "simple superposition" to "integrated integration"

  Since its birth, electromagnetic space operations have not been isolated. In the early stages of its development, it is mainly manifested in the simple superposition and preliminary coordination of technical capabilities. This is specifically reflected in the fact that combat units such as communication countermeasures, radar countermeasures, and electro-optical countermeasures are mostly deployed and operated independently, with relatively single functions. There is a lack of deep interaction and unified scheduling between operations in different spectrum domains. The operational effects are mainly manifested in point suppression or interference of specific electromagnetic nodes of the enemy. Entering the era of informationization and intelligence, from interception and early warning to interference suppression, from communication confrontation to radar confrontation, from battlefield reconnaissance to power seizure, electromagnetic space operations have become increasingly closely integrated with real space operations by virtue of their vertical extension of combat chains, horizontal expansion of spectrum territories, and empowerment of combat effect systems. The relationship between various units has also transformed from "simple superposition" to "integrated fusion" based on system confrontation.

  Among the many forms of information warfare, electronic countermeasures are its main content and technical support. Information countermeasures on the battlefield are essentially a competition for electromagnetic control. Therefore, to a certain extent, the power to control electromagnetic forces is equivalent to the power to control information on the battlefield. In the context of joint operations, "information-led, firepower-based warfare" has become the most basic and common combat method. Its integration of information and firepower puts forward inevitable requirements for systematization and jointization of electromagnetic space operations. This means that electromagnetic space combat operations must be deeply integrated into the joint combat system, closely coordinated and integrated with fire strike operations to form an organic whole of system confrontation. Only in this way can the key effectiveness of electromagnetic space operations be maximized, and the joint operational goals of integrated information and fire and cross-domain efficiency enhancement be finally achieved.

  Methods and strategies shift from "single redundancy" to "global linkage"

  In traditional mechanized warfare, the competition for resources in the electromagnetic field is fragmented, and its method system has obvious limitations. Even in relatively complex combat scenarios, it is still concentrated on single means such as reconnaissance, interference, and protection. This type of mode can only form local suppression of specific enemy combat nodes, and it is difficult to achieve systematic control of electromagnetic power in the entire domain. As electronic countermeasures are upgraded to an independent combat style, spectrum operations, electromagnetic warfare, etc. continue to evolve, and their core is embodied in the aggregation of four major capabilities, namely: battlefield penetration of signal reconnaissance, system destructive power of electronic attack, survivability and resilience of electronic protection, and synergistic effectiveness of spectrum management and control. This requires us to abandon the thinking that only focuses on improving the performance of a single-installation platform, and instead build a joint electronic countermeasure capability generation model with information advantages as the hub and system support as the cornerstone.

  To achieve this, it not only requires the integration of technical equipment, but also relies on the innovation of combat concepts, the optimization of institutional arrangements, and the improvement of command arts. It aims to use the systematic advantages of electromagnetic space to effectively resolve risks, or to quickly disintegrate the opponent's combat system in an asymmetric manner when necessary, and to seize and maintain the battlefield initiative. Therefore, promoting the transformation of electromagnetic warfare capabilities to the direction of global linkage is an inevitable choice and important support to meet the challenges of future informatization and intelligent warfare.

  Operational planning has shifted from "temporary response" to "active deployment"

  A large number of war practices have proved that electromagnetic space operations have increasingly been regarded as an important asymmetric measure to offset the advantages of high-tech systems and weapons. In the field of electromagnetic warfare, new frequency-using technologies or equipment are always given priority to improve anti-reconnaissance and anti-jamming capabilities, and only then can electronic countermeasures be developed to compete with them. This determines that the electronic countermeasures opponent has a natural lag relative to the spectrum utilization side, which means that it is difficult for the "spear" and "shield" of electromagnetic space operations to effectively compete simultaneously. Therefore, early electromagnetic space operations planning must focus on sudden crises and pay attention to temporary responses.

  However, driven by emerging electronic information technology, the technical level of frequency-using equipment such as communications, radar, and navigation continues to upgrade, and new concept electronic countermeasures continue to enter the electromagnetic strike "weapon arsenal." Faced with this situation, it is difficult to reverse the passive situation on the battlefield caused by the generation gap in key technologies simply by relying on rapid technological compensation and equipment replacement. Therefore, electromagnetic space combat planning should, on the basis of accelerating technological catch-up, strengthen the strategic layout and actively shape the electromagnetic situation that is conducive to seizing electromagnetic control power and even comprehensive battlefield control power. It is necessary to seize the characteristics and laws of the electromagnetic situation in the informationized and intelligent battlefield, such as dense and changeable signals, complex and intertwined networks, blurred boundaries between ourselves and the enemy, and rapid time and space transitions. We must unify command, highlight key points, and organize electromagnetic space combat operations in a careful and coordinated manner, so that various electromagnetic space combat forces form an organic whole and form a powerful advantage in comprehensively defeating the enemy.

• Many Stores Of Rubik's Cube Apartment Are Out Of Service, Tenants' Deposits Are Difficult To Refund, And Discounts Are Difficult To Allay Concerns.

  China News Service, Beijing, January 29 (Hu Shujuan) An announcement letter forced Lin Xiao (pseudonym) to move urgently.

  Previously, Lin Xiao lived in the Shanghai Jinyu Road Community of Rubik's Cube Apartment. An announcement letter posted by the property owner of the community stated that the lessee, Rubik's Cube Apartment, had been in serious breach of contract for a long time. The company had terminated the lease contract with it in accordance with the law and officially took back the property.

  "The property owner has not forced the tenant to move out, but the deposit we paid before is likely to be wasted." Lin Xiao said that the previously signed lease contract would not expire until around the end of February. Considering the subsequent risks, she decided to change the house directly.

  China News Network’s investigation revealed that many stores of Rubik’s Apartment in Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen and other places have stopped operating. Some tenants’ deposit and rent refunds applied for after the incident have not been received, and the property owners are also owed rent. At the same time, the Rubik's Cube Apartment mini program is promoting the "2026 Bargain House Hunting Season" event, sending limited flash sale coupons to offset 3,000 yuan in rent.

  However, as concerns about whether the Rubik's Cube apartment can still be rented continue to spread, this offer has been greatly discounted in the minds of tenants.

  The tenant’s deposit and the owner’s rent for several months are in arrears.

  In February last year, Lin Xiao signed an "Apartment Use Contract" with Shanghai Shengmu Asset Management Co., Ltd. (one of the affiliated companies of the "Magic Cube Apartment" brand). The rent is about 2,400 yuan/month, the service fee is 340 yuan/month, and a deposit of one and three is required. "I rented it because I was looking for the 'Rubik's Cube Apartment', and chain brands are more secure," she added.

  According to public information, Rubik's Cube Apartment is one of the brands under Rubik's Life Service Group (hereinafter referred to as "Magic's Life"). It was established in 2009 and focuses on providing centralized long-term rental apartment services for urban white-collar workers. Based on this positioning, the tenants of this apartment are mostly young people.

  The stability guarantee that Lin Xiao believed in "collapsed" in an instant on January 13.

  At around 11 a.m. that day, the WeChat group of tenants in Shanghai Jinyu Road Community of Rubik’s Apartment was suddenly disbanded. It was only after get off work that most of the tenants in the community discovered that the property owner, Shanghai Qirun Industrial Co., Ltd., had posted a special announcement letter.

  

  Announcement letter posted by the property owner. Photo provided by interviewee

  The announcement letter stated that the lease rights and operation and management rights of Mo Cube Apartment had been taken back due to long-term serious breach of contract. If the tenant is still willing to live in the apartment, he can re-sign a lease contract with the property owner. Lin Xiao told China News Service: "On the evening of January 13, the property owner negotiated with us to sign a creditor's rights transfer statement and a house rental agreement. It was stipulated that the house deposit previously paid must be refunded by the tenant himself to Rubik's Cube Apartment."

  In fact, the operating problems of the Rubik's Cube Apartment store attracted attention last year.

  Wang Li (pseudonym), another tenant of Shanghai Rubik's Cube Apartment, had seen posts on the topic "The Rubik's Cube Apartment exploded" around November last year. Unexpectedly, she received a notice from the staff the next month, who said, "The Rubik's Cube is no longer operating and a sublease contract needs to be signed." In mid-December last year, Wang Li applied to Rubik's Cube Apartment for a refund of more than 7,000 yuan in deposit, accommodation service fees, water and electricity bills, etc., but as of the time of publication, she had not received it yet.

  There may have been signs of the operating crisis of Rubik's Cube Apartments even earlier than last year. Shanghai Nuoyi Industrial Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Noyi Industrial") signed a long-term lease agreement with a company affiliated with Rubik's Cube Life a few years ago.

  "According to the original contract, the company and Rubik's Cube agreed to pay rent once every three months. Later, at the beginning of last year, the two parties negotiated and paid once a month." On January 22, a staff member of Nuoyi Industrial revealed to China News Service that Rubik's Cube Apartment began not to pay on time around March 2025, and directly defaulted on rent in July of that year. "The other party said at the time that there was no money, and now there are almost three months of rent, water and electricity bills, and garbage removal fees that have not been settled."

  In addition to Shanghai Nuoyi Industrial, staff from many property owner companies in Hangzhou, Shenzhen and other places have confirmed to China News Service that the Rubik's Cube Apartment has defaulted on rent and has been in arrears for several months, and the company has terminated its cooperation with them. There are also media reports that the rent arrears to some owners of Rubik's Cube Apartments in Guangzhou ranges from hundreds of thousands to one million yuan.

  Optimize and adjust while expanding new projects?

  "The occupancy rate of the apartment I live in is okay, and there are many cars in the parking lot. I didn't expect Rubik's Cube to be in arrears with rent for a long time." Many tenants have such doubts like Lin Xiao.

  In early January this year, Rubik's Cube Life responded to the media that according to the company's overall housing structure strategic optimization strategy, Rubik's Cube is optimizing some stores, and a small number of stores will be closed or the main body of operations will be adjusted. At present, the operation of Rubik's Cube is normal and orderly, and it is still actively developing new projects.

  Previously, China News Service sent an email to Rubik's Cube Apartment to inquire about the specific situation, but had not received a reply as of press time. On January 27, China News Network inquired about the relevant situation of two stores of Shanghai Rubik's Cube Apartment as tenants. Staff said that some stores stopped operations due to the expiration of contracts, and some due to losses. The current store is still operating normally.

  An interviewed property owner company staff member in Shenzhen mentioned a detail in the interview. He took over the operation and management of the Rubik's Cube Apartment after its closure and found that half of the rooms in the rental apartment were basically idle.

  It is worth noting that Rubik’s Cube Life sought to be listed in 2022 and submitted an application to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in September of that year.

  According to previous media reports, Rubik's Life's prospectus disclosed that its revenue increased from 946 million yuan in 2019 to 1.471 billion yuan in 2021, and its net profit increased from 63.6 million yuan in 2019 to 295 million yuan in 2021. In the first half of 2022, Rubik's Cube Life's net profit attributable to shareholders was 9.248 million yuan. As of the end of 2022, Rubik's Cube Life has a total of 76,200 apartments in operation, distributed in 25 cities across the country. However, the operating data has not been updated, and the official website data is still in 2022.

  According to the official website of Mofang Apartment, Mofang Life is a market-leading and rapidly growing long-term rental apartment service platform. Its apartments have two development models. One is the direct operation model, that is, the company rents the entire building or a part of the entire building, and manages and operates these rental properties; the other is the franchise management and third-party custody model, that is, the company manages and operates the franchised apartments under its own brand or the brand of the relevant client.

  From the previous plan to go public to the current "strategic optimization strategy", the long-term rental apartment model has once again been questioned whether it is reliable.

  This is related to changes in the rental market. Statistics from relevant agencies show that the annual average listed rent in 40 key cities across the country in 2025 will be approximately 43.3 yuan/㎡/month, a year-on-year decrease of 6.4% from last year, and the decline has narrowed.

  "The rental market is divided into the landlord market and the second landlord market. Rubik's Cube Apartment is equivalent to the second landlord." Zhang Dawei, chief analyst of Centaline Real Estate, said that the second landlord and the big landlord sign a lease to lock in the rent for a certain period, and then make profits through the increase in market rental prices. He pointed out that if rental prices do not rise or rise slowly, if management costs are still relatively high, it will increase the company's operating pressure.

  Lawyer: Tenants have the right to demand the return of deposit and remaining rent

  In the past few days, among the tenants of Rubik's Cube Apartment in Shanghai's Jinyu Road community, some tenants said that the house was still within the lease period but they received a "rent-out" text message, and some experienced that the door password was changed. They are hesitating whether to change the house directly or renew the contract with the property owner, and how to protect their rights and interests.

  Li Hongzhi, founding partner and deputy director of Beijing Zeheng Law Firm, told China News that according to the Civil Code, if the purpose of the contract cannot be realized due to a breach of contract by one party, the other party has the right to terminate the contract and terminate the performance of the unperformed portion; if the contract has been performed, it can request restoration to the original status or take other remedial measures based on the performance and the nature of the contract, and has the right to request compensation for losses.

  "During the performance of the lease contract signed between Mo Cube Apartment and the tenant, if the tenant is unable to continue to use the house due to a dispute between Mo Cube Apartment and the property owner, Mo Cube Apartment's behavior constitutes a breach of contract against the tenant." Li Hongzhi said that the tenant has the right to require Mo Cube Apartment to return the deposit and the rent corresponding to the remaining lease term.

  Li Hongzhi specifically mentioned that if the current dispute between Rubik's Apartment and the property owner has not been recognized or agreed by Rubik's Apartment, or confirmed by the People's Court, there is uncertainty as to whether the property owner has the right to terminate the contract and whether the court will confirm the termination of the contract between them.

  For the tenant, she recommends keeping all evidence such as the lease contract, payment vouchers, and communication records. In the event that MoFang Apartment refuses to refund the deposit fee, the tenants can jointly file a lawsuit in court and apply for property preservation. If the tenant decides to sign a lease agreement with the property owner, the core terms such as lease term and rent deduction must be clarified.

  For the property owner, Li Hongzhi said that during the negotiation and communication process with the Rubik's Cube Apartment party, complete evidence of the other party's breach of contract (such as the lease contract, collection records, arrears vouchers, etc.) should be collected. At the same time, the corresponding properties of Rubik's Cube Apartment will be seized, frozen and seized through litigation and property preservation to ensure that Rubik's Cube Apartment has the ability to pay the corresponding expenses.

  According to Qichacha, Rubik's Cube (Shanghai) Apartment Management Co., Ltd. has been listed as a "person subject to execution for breach of trust", with the amount involved in the case exceeding 15 million yuan, and it has also been involved in multiple house rental contract disputes. (over)

  On February 25, the A-share market continued its strong performance since the beginning of the Year of the Horse. The major indexes collectively closed up and market trading continued to increase. It is worth mentioning that after the first trading day of the Year of the Horse on February 24, the market reached a daily limit of more than 100 stocks. On the 25th, the market once again ushered in a daily limit of more than 100 stocks. Volume energy and sentiment resonated upward, and the spring market enthusiasm continued to spread.

  As of the close, the Shanghai Composite Index was at 4147.23 points, up 0.72%; the Shenzhen Component Index was at 14475.87 points, up 1.29%; the GEM Index was at 3354.82 points, up 1.41%; the Science and Technology Innovation Composite Index was up 1.20%, and the Beixin 50 Index was up 0.77%. The total turnover of the three cities of Shanghai, Shenzhen and North China exceeded 2.48 trillion yuan, with a volume of 262.7 billion yuan higher than the previous trading day. It has remained above 2.2 trillion yuan for two consecutive trading days, and the trend of capital entry is clear.

  General rising characteristics are obvious

  Specifically, on February 24, the turnover of the Shanghai, Shenzhen and North stock markets was 2.2 trillion yuan, 4,006 stocks in the market rose, and 109 stocks reached the daily limit, achieving a "good start" in the Year of the Horse. On February 25, the volume was further amplified. 3,748 stocks in the market rose, 101 stocks reached the daily limit, and only 4 stocks fell below the limit. The profit-making effect of individual stocks is high. The general market rise has obvious characteristics, and the upward trend of the index resonates with the strength of individual stocks, changing the previous structurally differentiated market pattern.

  At the level of individual stock sentiment, the daily limit of more than 100 stocks for two consecutive days has become the core indicator of market sentiment, while the echelon of strong connected stocks is complete, highly open, and has a stable promotion rate, which has become an intuitive reflection of short-term capital sentiment. On February 25, the total number of stocks with consecutive boards was 18, which was significantly expanded from the 7 stocks on the previous trading day. Among them, 4 stocks with three consecutive boards or above with high bids reached 4. The height of the market's consecutive boards expanded from 3 consecutive boards before the holiday to 5 consecutive boards in one fell swoop. Short-term relay sentiment continued to recover. Yuneng Holdings, which has five consecutive board targets, is the highest space board in the market, with a single-day transaction volume of 3.359 billion yuan and a turnover rate of 21%.

  From the perspective of the structure of daily limit stocks, cyclical stocks and technology growth stocks have become the main force. There are both low-level targets driven by resource price increases and hard technology targets supported by industrial prosperity. The closing rate remains high, the willingness of funds to close the market is strong, and short-term funds and mid-term institutional funds have formed a synergy to promote market sentiment to continue to rise.

  Price increase themes lead the rise

  In terms of sector operation, the market presents a pattern driven by the dual main lines of cyclical price increases and technological growth, providing support for the continued upward movement of the index. The theme of cyclical price increases has become the core leading force in the market in the past two days. Benefiting from the rise in international commodity prices, the strengthening of domestic strategic resource positioning and the expectation of product price increases, the rare earth, minor metals, non-ferrous metals, oil and gas exploration, phosphorus chemicals, steel and other sectors have exploded across the board.

  Among them, the concept of rare earths surged, with Baotou Steel Co., Ltd. and Northern Rare Earth both hitting their daily limit. On the news, the quotations from the Baotou Rare Earth Products Exchange show that the prices of praseodymium and neodymium oxide, praseodymium and neodymium metal, metal neodymium, dysprosium oxide, and terbium oxide have generally risen after the holiday. The average prices on February 24 were 882,000 yuan/ton and 1.0367 million yuan/ton respectively. , 1.12 million yuan/ton, 1.6229 million yuan/ton and 6.438 million yuan/ton, respectively increased by 41,600 yuan/ton, 31,700 yuan/ton, 80,000 yuan/ton, 170,000 yuan/ton and 118,000 yuan/ton compared with before the holiday.

  The port shipping sector was also affected by the logic of price increases. China Merchants Energy Shipping and COSCO Shipping Energy all went up by the daily limit at the beginning of the market. As of the close, the total market value had exceeded 110 billion yuan. In terms of news, the prosperity of the oil transportation industry has increased significantly recently and has become a hot spot in the market. The latest data on February 24 showed that the price of renting a very large crude carrier (VLCC) to transport Middle East crude oil to China has exceeded US$170,000 per day, setting a new high since April 2020.

  Agency: The spring market is sustainable

  Market institutions generally believe that the daily limit of 100 stocks has been exceeded for two consecutive days and the trading volume has gradually increased, confirming the logic of capital entry and the sustainability of the spring market.

  A Galaxy Securities research report stated that after the Spring Festival holiday, catalyzed by policy expectations, liquidity support and industrial trends, the market is likely to fluctuate upward. At the same time, it is necessary to pay close attention to the short-term disturbance of market sentiment caused by overseas uncertainties. Around March, the A-share market may take policy catalysis as the core driving force, with funds competing around policy-oriented industry main lines and theme opportunities, showing the characteristics of "rotation of policy hot spots and rapid switching of styles". At the same time, in March, the market logic will gradually shift from "policy expectations" to "performance fulfillment." The disclosure of the 2025 annual report of listed companies and the subsequent disclosure of the first quarter report of 2026 will become the market anchor, and targets whose performance exceeds expectations may receive funding focus.

  In terms of allocation opportunities, Galaxy Securities believes that we can focus on two main lines: on the one hand, the concept of "anti-involution" driven by the improvement of the supply and demand pattern and the restoration of industry profits, as well as the valuation of dividend assets with a margin of safety. The allocation logic is still clear. It is recommended to focus on non-ferrous metals, petroleum and petrochemical industries that benefit from rising prices, as well as basic chemicals, steel, cement, building materials, finance and other sectors. On the other hand, as the world's major changes unseen in a century accelerate, the underlying logic of the domestic economy shifts to new productive forces. Semiconductors, artificial intelligence, new energy, military industry, aerospace and other fields deserve attention.
