During the National Two Sessions in 2026, the "representative channel" and "member channel" have attracted much attention. Here, deputies to the National People's Congress and members of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference focus on social hot spots and respond to the voices of the people. Among them, "education" is a key word that must be discussed in every channel. From the transformation of rural education to the progress of national education, from dedicating to science education in primary and secondary schools to protecting the mental health of teenagers, from artificial intelligence revolutionizing education forms to the development of science and technology innovation empowering industries in colleges and universities... Representative committee members told stories about educating people and made suggestions for educational development, conveying a "good voice" of education with warmth, strength and depth.

Young people in Xinjiang are also enjoying the benefits of education. Muyasser Tohuti, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and president of the Xinjiang University of the Arts, has witnessed the tremendous changes in education in Xinjiang - from 1 university in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China to 66 universities today. Undergraduate and vocational education are blooming everywhere. "In Xinjiang now, the most beautiful building is the school, and the most beautiful scenery is on the campus." Member Muyasser Tohuti said.
Cultivate talents with intellectual curiosity and mental health
On March 7, Xu Xing, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, director of the Institute of Paleovertebral Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and professor of Yunnan University, was interviewed by the media at the second "member channel" collective interview event of the fourth session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.

Huang Huachun, deputy to the National People's Congress and vice-principal of Chongzuo Senior High School in Guangxi, told the story of helping female students get out of their psychological difficulties at the "Representative Channel". "Be your ears first, then your mouth," Representative Huang Huachun shared her experience.
Technology empowers education, and universities support scientific research
On March 11, Xu Kun, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, President and Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, was interviewed by the media at the third "Member Channel" collective interview event of the fourth session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.

In the era of artificial intelligence, what changes is education facing? In this regard, Xu Kun, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, President and Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, believes that the core of change is to promote talent training that combines large-scale and personalized training. AI has brought the education of "thousands of people with different faces" back to its origins of "thousands of people with different faces".
"AI does not replace teachers, but allows teachers to change from knowledge speakers to educators, and from knowledge authorities to guides for students' growth." Committee member Xu Kun pointed out that AI is a double-edged sword. We must adhere to science and technology for good, guide students to strengthen moral and ethical education, guide students to use AI reasonably and appropriately, and avoid inertia in thinking.
On March 11, Chen Jimin, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and Vice Chairman and Secretary-General of the Board of Trustees of Macau University of Science and Technology, was interviewed by the media at the third “Member Channel” collective interview event of the fourth session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference. Photo by Xinhua News Agency reporter Cao Yiming
In recent years, many universities have made scientific research a priority. In the "Member Channel", Chen Jimin, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and Vice Chairman and Secretary-General of the Board of Trustees of Macau University of Science and Technology, shared Macau's achievements in scientific research, education and technological innovation with a set of data - at the beginning of the establishment of the SAR, the number of students in Macau's universities was only There are 8,000 people, and now the number has increased to more than 62,000, including more than 9,000 undergraduate, master and doctoral students studying in science and technology majors. The number of scientific researchers in universities has also increased from 13 at that time to 1,773, an increase of 136 times.
On March 7, Zhang Qiao, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, president of Soochow University, and vice chairman of Jiangsu Province of the Peasants' and Workers' Party, was interviewed by the media at the second "member channel" collective interview event of the fourth session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. Photo by Xinhua News Agency reporter Cao Yiming
The progress of scientific research in universities will inevitably promote the integration of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation. In the "Member Channel", Zhang Qiao, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, President of Suzhou University, and Vice Chairman of Jiangsu Province of the Peasants' and Workers' Party, took ID card anti-counterfeiting technology as an example to demonstrate the results of the deep integration of industry, academia and research in universities. “We found that when children come back to school to study with real problems on the front lines of industry, they can learn deeper, faster and more solidly, and they can truly apply what they have learned and find employment upon graduation.” Looking forward to the 15th Five-Year Plan, Committee Member Zhang Qiao expressed the hope that colleges and universities will not only become innovation parks that provide inspiration, but also become engines that drive development, truly write papers on the land of the motherland, let the big tree of technological innovation grow deep and leafy, and ultimately bear the fruits of industrial innovation.
When education prospers, the country prospers. The "good voice of education" on the "Representative Channel" and "Committee Channel" not only tells the original intention of educating people rooted in the front line, but also shows the educational wisdom with an eye on the future, speaking to the hearts of the people.

As the conflict between the United States, Israel and Iran continues to spill over, Ukraine is becoming a "life-saving straw" for Gulf countries struggling to survive.
According to CCTV News, on the 10th local time, Ukrainian President Zelensky stated that a team of Ukrainian drone experts has rushed to the Middle East to assist regional countries in responding to Iranian drone attacks.
Kiev is also willing to "pass on knowledge and treasures" by exporting actual anti-drone combat experience and technology in exchange for scarce air defense missiles.
Received 11 orders
Zelenskiy said on the 10th that Ukraine has sent three expert teams to Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, and they are expected to arrive this week. Another team of experts has arrived at the US military base in Jordan.
Members of the Uzbek expert group include Umerov, secretary of the Uzbek National Security and Defense Council, and military personnel, who will share their experience in intercepting drones with the above-mentioned countries.
According to Zelensky, Ukraine has previously received 11 requests for security cooperation from Gulf countries, EU member states and the United States. The requesting party expressed strong interest in Ukraine’s experience in developing interceptors, electronic warfare systems, countering drones and training personnel.
"Life-saving straw"
Since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, in addition to ground wars, Ukraine and Russia have also engaged in drone and missile wars.
Due to the close relationship between Russia and Iran, the Russian drones that Kiev defended included a large number of Iranian-made "witness" drones, thus accumulating rich practical experience.
Today, this drone is being used on battlefields in the Middle East.
In retaliation for U.S. and Israeli air strikes, Iran has continuously launched missiles and drones at Israel and Gulf countries with U.S. military bases.
Among them, the "Witness-136" drone with long-range attack capabilities is particularly frightening.
This UAV is relatively low-cost, with a single unit costing about US$20,000 to US$50,000. It is easy to mass-produce and can implement swarm tactics when attacking, forcing opponents to invest millions of dollars in interceptor missiles to deal with them until they exhaust their defense resources and bring down their air defense systems.
For this reason, the "Witness-136" has been described as a "poor man's cruise missile."
Even the United States finds this drone difficult to deal with.
Trump administration officials admitted at a closed briefing last week that Iran's Witness-136 drones were more destructive on the battlefield than the Pentagon expected, according to people familiar with the matter.
Even more deadly, intercepting swarms of low-cost drones is rapidly depleting America’s missile stockpile.
The latest news said that Gulf countries are worried about the "imminent exhaustion" of anti-missile weapons.
However, for the Gulf countries, Ukraine has now become a "life-saving straw", and Kiev's drone interceptors may become the nemesis of "witnesses".
More than four years of Russia-Ukraine war of attrition has forced Ukraine to develop a cheaper drone interceptor, with a minimum cost of only about US$1,000, completely rewriting air defense rules and war patterns.
For example, the "Octopus-100" interceptor drone independently developed by Ukraine has a speed of 300 kilometers per hour, far exceeding the 180 kilometers per hour of the "Witness-136"; the cost is between US$2,000 and US$5,000, which is much lower than the "Witness-136".
Ukraine has not only developed low-cost interceptor drones specifically designed to track and destroy "witnesses", but its rapidly expanding drone production capacity has exceeded its own needs.
Earlier this year, Zelensky announced that Ukraine would export these combat-proven drones.
Zelensky revealed that some countries have privately proposed to purchase drones, but without the support of Ukrainian military operators, software systems and radar networks, it is difficult to intercept the drones themselves, so it is necessary to send a team of experts to impart experience.
make a deal
Of course, Kyiv is not "selfless dedication" and also has demands from the Gulf countries.
Zelensky said that Uzbekistan is willing to cooperate with its Middle East partners to exchange low-cost interceptor drones produced by Uzbekistan for "Patriot" air defense missiles.
Ukraine originally lacked anti-aircraft missiles, and the situation became even worse after the war in Iran broke out.
Due to the priority supply of advanced air defense missiles such as the American "Patriot" to the Middle East, Ukraine is experiencing a shortage of air defense interceptors.
Some commentators pointed out that Kyiv is seeking a mutually beneficial "barter" deal, with Ukraine providing rich experience in countering Iranian drones, and the Gulf countries providing Ukraine with more weapons capable of intercepting Russian ballistic missiles, each getting what it needs.

Topic: From rise to decline, the huge media empire that Alibaba invested in seemed to be on the verge of collapse as Jack Ma became speechless.
On January 21, this year’s Laba Festival, Jack Ma, who had been silent for 88 days, spoke for the first time and has been speechless ever since.
It seems that Jack Ma has been "silent" for almost half a year. Along with him, there is also the media empire that he has built with all his heart.
On March 15, the Wall Street Journal reported that Alibaba had been notified to divest the media assets it controls.
As Xu Lin, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee and director of the State Council Information Office, emphasized at the "2020 China New Media Conference": resolutely prevent the party's leadership from being diluted in the name of integrated development, and resolutely guard against the risk of capital manipulating public opinion. ①
I have to say that Jack Ma’s ambition was not just about making money!
From his first investment in the media field in 2009 when he invested in the electronic magazine "Taobao World" to now owning 24 media outlets, Jack Ma quietly built a huge media empire in just 12 years.
However, from Tmall President Jiang Fan’s love affair disrupting the order of online communication, to Ant Huabei’s advertisements encouraging a large number of young people to borrow money and consume in advance, to speeches on the Bund that broke the bottom line of regulators, how far can capital go to control public opinion?
In fact, Jack Ma has taken a fancy to the mass spiritual culture market very early on. Nowadays, many of our spiritual consumptions are inseparable from Alibaba, but the public is not fully aware of it.
For example, Bilibili and Mango TV are popular among young people, "Business Review" is often read by entrepreneurs, "People" magazine is widely read, and movies such as "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Operation Red Sea" that focus on patriotism all have the shadow of Alibaba.
It didn’t take long for Jack Ma to create a huge media landscape——
In 2009, the electronic magazine "Taobao World" was founded. This was Jack Ma's first attempt to invest in the Internet media field. This is another target market in Jack Ma's mind: the media field.
In 2010, Jack Ma and Zhejiang Publishing Group founded "World Online Business". Since then, Jack Ma has begun frequent investment actions, quietly building a huge media asset portfolio, involving online forums, digital media, video websites, film and television production companies, social media, advertising and public relations companies and even traditional paper media and other fields.
In 2012, Jack Ma entered the field of social media for strangers. In July, he invested US$15 million in Momo. A year later, he invested another US$10 million to build Momo, which focuses on social media with strangers.
In 2013, Alibaba took a crucial step and became the second largest shareholder of Sina Weibo with a generous investment of 586 million. In order to successfully acquire a stake in Sina Weibo, the two parties negotiated 46 times, and Jack Ma compromised twice. ②
At the end of 2012, Jack Ma's offer in the early stages of negotiations was to acquire Sina Weibo entirely. However, the offer was fiercely opposed by Sina Chairman Cao Guowei, because Cao Guowei expected to independently list Sina Weibo in 2014-2015. ②
Because Cao Guowei had a tough attitude and left no room for change, Ma Yun made his first compromise. Alibaba subsequently changed the offer from acquisition to holding. Afterwards, Jack Ma suddenly compromised for the second time and agreed to give up the idea of holding a controlling stake, and only entered Sina Weibo as a strategic investor. ②
Sina announced that the two parties will explore a social e-commerce model based on effective interaction between hundreds of millions of Weibo users and hundreds of millions of consumers on Alibaba's e-commerce platform.
Now it seems that Ma Yun's two compromises were worthwhile. Today, Sina Weibo has more than 500 million monthly active users, more than half of China's Internet users. Sina Weibo has also become one of the main platforms for Alibaba to influence and even manipulate public opinion.
In addition, in 2013, Alibaba also became an angel investment institution for "Titanium Media" and "Lianyun.com", which focus on Internet technology investment reports, and made a strategic investment in "Business Review", known as "China's No. 1 Management Journal".
"Business Review" is modeled after the Harvard Business Review edition and is sponsored by the Institute of American Studies, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. According to its official website, "Business Review" can influence more than 1 million high-end people.
In 2014, Alibaba successfully went public in the United States and became China's second-largest company by market value on that day. Then Jack Ma's investment in the media sector became particularly generous.
This year, Jack Ma made the largest M&A amount in China's Internet industry at that time - HK$6.2 billion. He acquired 60% of the shares of Cultural China and became its largest shareholder. Later, he changed the name of "Cultural China" to "Alibaba Pictures".
In fact, Alibaba Pictures can be seen in many popular movies nowadays, such as "The Wandering Earth", "I'm Not the God of Medicine", "Tomato Rich", "Operation Red Sea", "Wolf Warrior 2", etc. The box office of these movies has exceeded 2 billion yuan, among which "Wolf Warrior 2" has the highest box office of Chinese films - 5.683 billion.
In addition to film and television production, Cultural China also owns traditional paper media "Beijing Times" and mobile game development and other businesses. However, on December 31, 2016, "Beijing Times" announced that it would cease publication and appeared in newsstands for the last time.
In the same year, Alibaba also acquired a 16.5% stake in Youku Tudou for US$1.22 billion, and launched product services for purchasing Youku VIPs on Taobao and Tmall. In addition, it also used a "scratch-off" lottery on the Alipay page to give users trial VIPs.
In 2014, Jack Ma invested in a large number of media platforms, but still refused to give in. So in this year, Alibaba's product team began to build a multi-terminal platform specifically for Chinese enterprises to communicate and collaborate - DingTalk, occupying the corporate social market.
As of 2019, the number of DingTalk users has exceeded 200 million, and the number of enterprise organizations has exceeded 10 million. However, under the impact of the epidemic in 2020, working and studying at home has become the mainstream, and DingTalk has grown by leaps and bounds, occupying the top position in the corporate office field.
In 2014, Jack Ma also teamed up with Shi Yuzhu to acquire 40% of Wasu Media for 6.5 billion yuan. Wasu Media was formerly the Hangzhou Cable Radio and Television Network Center. Until 2017, it was China's only cross-regional cable network operator, with nearly 30 million cable TV home users. ②
In addition, in 2014, Jack Ma and Ping An's Ma Mingzhe jointly invested in Huayi Brothers, with a financing amount of 3.6 billion yuan. Alibaba invested 1.533 billion yuan. After that capital increase, Alibaba became the second largest shareholder of Huayi Brothers. ③
In addition to investments in the film and television field, Jack Ma also focuses on information search and aggregation platforms, wholly acquired Lei Jun's UC Browser, and launched the mobile search engine "Shenma Search".
In 2015, Alibaba spent 2.4 billion yuan to subscribe for 8.8% of Enlight Media's shares, becoming its second largest shareholder.
Enlight Media is a large-scale private media and entertainment group that has flourished in film, television and drama. It owns big IP movies such as "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" and "Detective Chinatown", as well as stars such as Zhang Ruonan, Ren Min, and Ding Yuxi. It has good development prospects in the entertainment industry.
In addition to continuing to enter the film and television industry, Alibaba actually invested in these paper media fields in 2015——
In May, Alibaba invested 30 million in Beiqing Community Newspaper, a subsidiary of Beijing Youth Daily.
In June, Alibaba invested 1.2 billion yuan and became the second largest shareholder of China Business News. A strategic investment of US$200 million in China's most influential and complete financial media group - China Business News. ⑤
In the same month, Alibaba also invested in Beijing Boya Tianxia Media and Culture Development Co., Ltd., which owns three magazines: "Blog World", "Financial World" and "People".
In September, Ant Financial invested US$150 million in 36 Krypton, a media company focusing on Internet technology innovation and entrepreneurship.
In October, Alibaba and the Sichuan Daily Newspaper Group's "West China Metropolis Daily" newspaper jointly established "Cover Media". The two parties have joined forces to form a new Cover Media Co., Ltd. and work together to create a new mainstream media that emphasizes "personalized customization". ⑤
In December, Alibaba acquired the Hong Kong newspaper South China Morning Post for HK$2.06 billion in cash. ⑥
The South China Morning Post, founded in 1903, has long been a reading material for Hong Kong's elite. About one-third of its readers are in the United States. Its previous two owners were media tycoon Rupert Murdoch and Malaysia's richest man Robert Kuok. ⑥
By the end of 2015, Jack Ma’s media empire had become relatively comprehensive: it had both traditional television and online streaming media platforms; it had both an Internet new media matrix and traditional paper media with a long history; it had both social platforms and information search and aggregation platforms.
In 2016, Ant Financial invested 20 million yuan in "Caixin Media". According to the official website of Caixin Media: it is committed to China's most influential readership and provides accurate, comprehensive and in-depth financial news and information services. However, according to media reports, in 2019, Ant sold 5.62% of its shares in Caixin Media. ⑥
Also in 2016, Alibaba once again expanded its investment in Sina Weibo, increasing its holdings of Weibo stocks by US$135 million, and its shareholding also increased by 1.4 percentage points.
In 2018, Alibaba entered the offline advertising field and acquired 10.3% of the shares of offline advertising giant Focus Media for 15 billion yuan, becoming the second largest shareholder after founder Jiang Nanchun.
Focus Media's market share in the elevator advertising market is as high as 95%, and its market share in theater screen advertising has reached 55%. Alibaba said that its strategic investment in Focus is an important extension of Alibaba's global marketing matrix. ⑦
In the same year, Alibaba also acquired 12.77% of Wanda Film's shares, becoming Wanda Film's second largest shareholder and continuing to expand in the film and television industry.
In 2019, Alibaba invested US$440 million in Bilibili, accounting for 8% of the total equity. On March 29 this year, Bilibili landed in the capital market for the second time and officially listed on the secondary market in Hong Kong. It can be seen that Alibaba did not make a mistake.
At the end of 2020, Mango Super Media announced that Alibaba had invested more than 6.2 billion yuan in Mango Super Media, a listed company controlled by Hunan Satellite TV, becoming the second largest shareholder.
As of now, Alibaba has established a media asset layout covering traditional media, technological new media, information search and aggregation, content distribution, traditional film and television, emerging streaming media, social media and other fields.
In his speech on the Bund on October 24 last year, Jack Ma took his madness to the extreme. Those seemingly "sonorous and powerful" words completely broke the bottom line of regulators and pushed Ant into an "unknown dangerous situation."
One month after the incident, on November 19, 2020, Xu Lin, Vice Minister of the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee and Director of the State Council Information Office, emphasized at the "2020 China New Media Conference": "Resolutely guard against the risk of capital manipulation of public opinion."
Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why the Wall Street Journal reported that Alibaba was asked to sell off the media assets it controls.
Let’s take a look, how are the media companies invested by Jack Ma doing now?
At this year’s 315 party, UC Browser was named for being involved in placing false medical advertisements. In February before that, UC Browser was also publicly named for illegally calling mobile phone permissions.
According to investigation data released by the Guangzhou Municipal Market Supervision Bureau, the party concerned published 608 illegal advertisements for 473 advertisers on the "Shenma Search" platform of UC Browser from March 16, 2019 to March 15, 2021, and collected a total of 13,464.04 yuan in advertising fees.
After the investigation, the Guangzhou Tianhe District Market Supervision Bureau imposed an administrative penalty of confiscating advertising fees of 13,464.04 yuan and a fine of 2,078,172.55 yuan on the parties involved in the case strictly, severely, and expeditiously in accordance with the law. The total amount of fines and confiscations was 2,091,636.59 yuan. ④
Immediately afterwards, major Android app stores such as Huawei, Xiaomi, vivo, and OPPO removed Alibaba's UC Browser from the shelves, displaying "Service adjustment, temporarily not available for download."
Now UC Browser has been re-listed, but it is only a matter of time before UC Browser that operates in violation of regulations will be named next time.
In addition, in the battle for the top market of leading streaming media such as Tencent Video and iQiyi, Youku Tudou has also been defeated and entered the second echelon. In the second echelon, Mango TV will soon surpass Youku Tudou.
In Alibaba's latest financial report for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021 (i.e., the fourth quarter of 2020), Youku's revenue, paid membership and other specific data were not disclosed. It only disclosed that Youku's average daily user base increased by 30% year-on-year. I'm afraid the numbers are not very good.
It can be seen that Alibaba has experienced frequent thunderstorms in recent months, and its business has not been doing well.
Although the above business is indeed not done well, at least it has not completely crossed the bottom line of the people and regulatory authorities. In the incident of "Prince Ali" Jiang Fan, Ali's manipulation of public opinion was undoubtedly exposed as a capitalist.
Jack Ma once said this: "If any business affects the media's correct judgment and independent thinking, this society will be in chaos. The media cannot be allowed to fall, the media cannot be allowed to lose themselves, and the media cannot be allowed to lose objective and rational communication because of money. This is also the reason why we entered Weibo, we can help them technically."⑧
Jack Ma also said: "We never interfere in any operation of any media, because this is what I feel I need to respect the news." ⑧
The words are so beautiful. The purpose of entering Weibo is "to prevent the media from losing objective and rational communication because of money." But is this really the case?
In April last year, the first wife of Tmall CEO Jiang Fan posted on Weibo that she was cheating on her, Internet celebrity Zhang Dayi, and asked Zhang Dayi to stay away from her husband.
Jiang Fan's love affair quickly spread on Weibo, attracting many people to watch, but obviously, Ali's subsequent series of operations immediately put behind Ma Yun's beautiful words.
Shortly after the Weibo post calling out Zhang Dayi was posted, Jiang Fan's wife's Weibo comment function was blocked. At the same time, some Weibo users found that their relevant posts were deleted by the platform, and all related topics disappeared thereafter.
It is worth mentioning that this account (Business Master Research Institute) once published a post titled "Tmall President's Deletion of Posts Related to Cheating: Challenging Jack Ma's Values?" ", "The wife of Taobao CEO is tearing up the mistress: Will the person who deletes the post not go to jail? ", respectively commented on "Alibaba's rapid deletion of Weibo posts involving the incident". However, these articles posted by major business groups on Weibo and some self-media platforms invested by Alibaba were also quickly deleted.
Although Jiang Fan's wife was later settled and Weibo returned to its peaceful appearance, how could the country not take action by manipulating public opinion so wantonly?
In June 2020, the Cyberspace Administration of China interviewed the person in charge of Sina Weibo and pointed out that Sina Weibo had interfered with the order of online communication and disseminated illegal information during the public opinion incident involving Tmall President Jiang Fan, requiring it to make immediate rectifications and suspend updating the hot search list for a week. At the same time, the relevant responsible persons will be dealt with seriously, and Sina Weibo will be subject to strict administrative penalties of fines in accordance with the law.
It was also from the content of this announcement that netizens realized the horror of capital controlling public opinion.
Jack Ma's public relations team can grasp the direction of public opinion, silence a large number of Weibo influencers for money, use money to delete public comments, and even close channels for public discussion. How terrifying this is.
In addition to this, Alibaba has used its media assets as a tool to control public opinion and has also successfully influenced public perceptions of the emerging fintech industry.
Huabei once launched such an advertisement. The content of the advertisement was about a female college student who borrowed Huabei to travel across the country after graduation. In addition, another Huabei advertisement also promoted a poor father who borrowed money from Huabei to celebrate his daughter’s birthday in style.
Whether it is a loan for a graduation trip or a loan for a birthday, these advertisements convey extremely wrong values, but they accurately capture the vanity of young people and successfully guide a large number of young people to consume in advance.
When everyone was complaining about overtime work, Jack Ma blurted out that "996 is a blessing." Although his true identity has been revealed, thanks to his media and public relations matrix, Jack Ma still has the title of "Daddy Ma" given to him by consumers.
Fortunately, this evil trend that encourages the public to consume in advance has been stopped by the regulatory authorities. Just when Ant’s listing was urgently stopped, its Huabei advertisement was also removed overnight.
Therefore, the "Wall Street Journal" report that Alibaba was asked to sell off the media assets it controls is not sudden...
In 2013, Alibaba Entertainment was established, and Jack Ma gave it an eleven-year period.
During this period, Alibaba Entertainment set a new record for internal corruption within the Alibaba Group.
In July 2015, Liu Chunning, the former vice president of Alibaba Pictures, was taken away by the Shenzhen police on suspicion of commercial bribery; in 2016, Lu Fanxi, the vice president of Youtu, was found to be involved in corruption by the public security organs and was detained; in 2016, Kong Qi, the vice president of Alibaba Pictures and general manager of Taopiaopiao, was suspected of corruption and bribery; in December 2018, Yang Weidong, the top rotating president of Alibaba Entertainment, accepted bribes and was sentenced to seven years in prison and had 2 million yuan in property confiscated. ⑨
Declining performance losses and internal corruption have resulted in Alibaba's media sector being large but not strong. Faced with continuous losses in many businesses, Jack Ma seems to have no time to wait for them to turn losses into profits.
Although the media matrix that Jack Ma has spent more than ten years laying out has penetrated into all aspects of public spiritual consumption, Alibaba can only choose to get rid of such a huge market share. At the same time, the losses and risks associated with it are also all-round -
First of all, Alibaba’s e-commerce platforms such as Taobao and 1688 will lose a large number of promotion channels. Originally, products have the dual convenience of internal promotion and external promotion of Alibaba platforms. This convenience may be suspended in the future.
Secondly, in the Alibaba media sector, the Hong Kong-based South China Morning Post English media and the mainland's China Business News, People, Finance World and other print media, because of their great influence and large personnel organizations, under our country's insistence on the principle of party-controlled media and the requirements of politicians running newspapers, they must be completely divested, even if the procedures are complicated, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and they suffer losses for months.
Finally, Alibaba's divestiture of media assets has also affected a wide range of companies, such as Sina Weibo, Mango Super Media, Focus Media and other companies in which Alibaba holds large shares. Future decisions and plans may even change as a result. Whether Youku Tudou, which has suffered continuous losses and was "enriched" by Ali, can continue to survive in the future after being divested will be a question.
However, some people believe that after this adjustment, Ali's giving up some non-core assets is an opportunity. In the future, Ali can be more focused and stable, focusing on more core businesses; and for the media assets it has divested, getting rid of Ali will have a higher degree of freedom, and may also be able to develop better.
However, media assets are always the traffic diversion entrance and public relations tool for other Alibaba businesses, so it would be a pity to sell them off.
Perhaps in the future Alibaba will use another method to hold some media assets in disguise, which is also unknown.
Xinhua News Agency quoted South Korea's SBS TV news channel as reporting on the 11th. A surveillance video obtained by the station showed that the US military's "THAAD" anti-missile system launch vehicle deployed at the Seongju base in North Gyeongsang Province, South Korea, was transported from the Seongju base in early March and headed for the Middle East.
The video was allegedly shot on March 3 on a country road near the US military base in South Korea. The video showed that multiple large vehicles with their tops covered with blocking cloths drove past one after another for more than 10 minutes. According to reports, after identification, there were a total of 6 "THAAD" launch vehicles among them. The Seongju base has deployed a "THAAD" combat unit consisting of six launch vehicles, which means that all "THAAD" launch vehicles have been transported away from the base.
Local residents of Seongju and some civil society groups issued a statement saying that the six "THAAD" launch vehicles transported from the Seongju base have been confirmed by U.S. officials to be transferred to the Middle East. The statement stated that no information was notified before the transfer of the THAAD launch vehicle, and even the South Korean government was not aware of it.
According to a report by the Washington Post on the 9th, the United States is transporting part of the "THAAD" anti-missile system deployed in South Korea to the Middle East. The report quoted two U.S. government officials as saying that in addition to THAAD, the U.S. military also mobilized "Patriot" interceptor missiles from the so-called "Indo-Pacific" region and other regions.
According to Blue House news, South Korean President Lee Jae-myung said when presiding over a state meeting at the Blue House on the 10th that the South Korean government opposed the deployment of some air defense weapons by the US military, but the objective reality is that it is difficult for South Korea’s opinions to be implemented.
According to a report from Global Network, the media recently broke the news that the US military in South Korea transferred some weapons and equipment from South Korea to the Middle East, causing concern. According to reports from Reuters, Yonhap News Agency and other media, South Korean President Lee Jae-myung did not clearly confirm the possible transfer or redeployment of US military assets in South Korea when he hosted a state meeting at the presidential palace on the 10th. However, he also said that although South Korea has expressed opposition, South Korea’s opinions will not be fully adopted. This is a "harsh reality."
After 1949, class struggle began in China. Landowners and capitalists were considered representatives of the exploiting class. Land owned by landlords was confiscated during land reform, and factories owned by capitalists were turned over during public-private partnership.
As representatives of class struggle criticism, landlords have been shaped into many "
famous
"The image of a bully. And among them"
steal the show
"One of them said he was a landlord but looked down upon him. He was a bully with multiple identities including a warlord and a businessman.
Such a big landowner persuades his neighbors to "do not engage in the Three People's Principles, it is better to learn three more trades to make a living." What kind of landowner is this that is highly praised? Who is he?
"Tiger Liu" who has done many evil things
There is such a person in Dayi County, Sichuan Province,
Known locally as "Liu Laohu", he was Liu Wencai, the brother of the warlord Liu Wenhui.
He used Liu Wenhui's identity as the Sichuan brigade commander to appoint the directors of many local business bureaus. He used his identity to extort excessive amounts of money and set up more than 40 tax projects with all kinds of weirdness.
They even forced local farmers to grow opium poppies and collected tobacco seedling taxes, tobacco soil taxes, brokerage taxes, red light donations, etc. Farmers who did not grow opium poppies were levied lazy taxes, which caused great harm to the people in southern Sichuan.
If we just criticize farmers harshly, it would be in line with his "
landowner
"His identity, what is hateful is that he harmed our party members. Perhaps it is for this reason that after he died of illness, his grave was dug up and his body was dumped in the wilderness.
From 1927 to 1929, in just two years, Liu Wencai used his status as a warlord to kill more than 100 members of our party, agricultural association and revolutionary fighters; in March 1931, he created the "
pile of five
'' incident, five leading party officials including Liang Ge, special commissioner of the Sichuan Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, and Kong Fangxin, secretary of the Yibin Central County Party Committee, were brutally shot dead by him.
The local people were exploited by it, and the revolutionary activities of our party were suppressed by it. He was not satisfied with this. In 1931, Liu Wencai and his nephew Liu Xiang competed for hegemony in Sichuan. The conflict between the two intensified, causing the entire Yibin to suffer.
Liu Wencai failed to assassinate Liu Xiang, so Liu Xiang sent planes to bomb Yibin.
When Liu Wencai was defeated and fled, he looted 200,000 silver dollars in the name of collecting military expenses. It is said that together with the gold and silver treasures he had plundered in the past, he packed more than 4,500 large wooden boxes and transported them back to his home in Dayi on more than 20 ships.
Private criminal law, a luxurious life of bullying men and dominating women
During the Cultural Revolution, there was a famous figure named Leng Yueying who claimed to have worked in a water prison that could be called a hell on earth. The reason why she was imprisoned in the water prison was because she owed Liu Wencai 5 dou 2 liters of rent. As a representative of those who had been tortured by the landlords, Leng Yueying began his report on remembering the bitter and savoring the sweet. The report was given more than a thousand times, with an audience of more than one million people.
He took Wang Yuqing, who was 27 years younger than him, as his mistress. This ordinary woman was called "the last remaining fifth concubine in mainland China".
It is said that Liu Wencai lived a luxurious life. His little wife only ate duck webs, while he also drank human milk every day.
The Liu family mansion where he lived was used by the local government after his death and was established as the "Liu Family Landlord Manor Museum in Dayi", which serves as a living teaching material on class struggle and is open to the world for viewing.
Liu Wencai died of illness before the founding of New China, which also spared him the punishment of class struggle and did not directly face the punishment of his evil deeds. With the beginning of the class struggle in New China, the Liu family declined and their property was confiscated.
Element"
The problem is ostracized.
Destiny has its fair side. The previous enjoyment and evil deeds will eventually be punished, whether it is because of the crime of having a jade, or being punished on its behalf.
At that time, being able to have enough food was considered a "luxurious" life, not to mention the Liu family, which was arrogant and extravagant.
There are two sides to everything. Black and white evaluations are right or wrong.
If black and white and good and evil are put together, they will be clearly visible in comparison. If I feel that the description of the landlord villain is too simple,
Scholars with a dialectical spirit about history tried to conduct in-depth research on Liu Wencai, and this research seemed to "eliminate" his notorious behavior.
Liu's Mansion
"Water Torture Room"
It was just a cellar for storing opium. During the Republic of China, when opium was prevalent, it was understandable for a landlord to store opium. However, the legendary water torture chamber of purgatory on earth did not really exist.
The fifth concubine, who lives a luxurious life and only eats duck paws, is basically a frugal person who is afraid of wasting food, so she "
have to
"People who can live well by eating duck paws; Nanny Luo, who provides human milk to Liu Wencai every day, has never even set foot in Liu's mansion to talk about drinking human milk.
In Anren Town, they built roads and commercial streets at their own expense, and leased them to villagers with no income at a meager rent; they spent huge sums of money to build Wencai Middle School and built local high-standard schools, libraries, music rooms, laboratories, auditoriums and other high-standard facilities, which were extremely rare in China at that time.
In order to ensure the quality of construction, he personally supervises the construction every day, exempts and exempts tuition fees for poor students, hires high-quality teachers to teach and educate people in school.
The previous descriptions of Liu Wencai seemed to be a joke, and his behavior seemed to be deliberately discredited. Was this just the need for social propaganda at the time, and the real situation was not like this?
History is multi-faceted, and the evaluation of characters should not only look at one side.
It is hard to believe that this simple advice came from a big landowner who had done many evil things.
People's hearts are inherently complex, and it is even more difficult to retrospectively evaluate historical figures. After all, many years have passed, and there are only a few people who have personally witnessed the development of events, and those who
"party
"and"
bystander
"Whether it has come into contact with the true side of the matter is unknown.
You still need to be cautious when evaluating living people, and you should not jump to conclusions easily about historical figures who have passed away. The truth of history is not black and white. After all, most historical events are submerged in the long river of time. No matter how deep you study, you cannot restore the truth of the facts. The stories that are passed down are too often characterized by the characteristics of the times and political overtones, and personal emotions will bias the actual details.
Liu Wencai's life was filled with both evil deeds and good deeds.
We cannot cover up his crimes of bullying the weak, causing harm to the township, and killing revolutionary heroes, and we cannot lightly talk about his foolish actions of acting alone and causing the entire county to be bombed and looted for his own selfish desires.
However, the good deed of building roads and schools to promote trade does not quite fit with his persona of a bully, landlord, and warlord.
Therefore, history is multi-faceted, and the evaluation of people cannot be single-minded. After all, too many traces of history have been erased by time, and the human traces are too strong. There is no pure distinction between good and evil in the world.
, what I want to say is:
Respect history, follow your heart, and do not judge others absolutely by virtue of good or evil. Don't judge others based on your preferences.
