Since the fourth quarter of last year, regulatory authorities have continued to standardize the behavior of commercial banks in absorbing deposits through Internet third-party platforms and off-site. For small and medium-sized banks, especially non-Internet private banks, they must continue to achieve rapid growth in deposits.
Zhang Xue once shouted "Use Made in China to Kill Made in Japan" Zhang Xue Motorcycles did it
"Look how I can use Made in China to kill Made in Japan!"
In the past two days, Zhang Xue, the founder of the Chinese motorcycle brand Zhang Xue Motorcycles, has attracted attention on social media with his heroic words in his early years.

Many netizens marveled, "No one believed him at the time, but now he has really done it."
On March 28, in the World SSP category of the World Superbike Championship (WSBK) in Portugal, French rider Valentin Debis drove the Zhang Xue Motorcycle 820RR-RS model and won the championship with a lead of nearly 4 seconds. Traditional overlords Ducati, Yamaha, Kawasaki, etc. have all been left behind.

After the game, Zhang Xue said on social media that if some things were done not for results but for love, the results might really be different.
In the eyes of many people in the industry, Zhang Xue is undoubtedly a legend, and his life experience is comparable to the real-life version of "Flying Life".
Public reports show that Zhang Xue’s parents divorced since she was a child, and her family is poor. At the age of 14, he dropped out of school to work as an apprentice in a repair shop and saved 8,000 yuan to buy an old Honda.
At the age of 19, Zhang Xue attracted public attention for riding more than 100 kilometers in the rain to chase the TV crew.
At the age of 26, he went to Chongqing with tens of thousands of yuan to build cars, starting with assembly, modification, and online sales.
In 2024, Zhang Xue Motorcycles was born. The first 1,000 units of the first model will not be sold and will be fully tested for 1 million kilometers. Quality will always be put before making money.
After winning the championship, Zhang Xue’s motorcycle inquiries increased significantly.
Zhang Xue’s motorcycle applet shows that there are currently three motorcycles, ZX820RR, ZX500RR, and ZX500F, available for reservation. Among them, the ZX820RR version is priced at a uniform national price of 43,800 yuan, and the RR-R version is priced at 61,980 yuan.
Zhang Xue earlier introduced that in 2025, Zhang Xue's motorcycle output value will reach 750 million yuan, R&D investment will reach 69.58 million yuan, R&D sales will account for 9.33%, and a loss of 22.78 million yuan will be incurred during the same period.
In addition, Zhang Xue Motorcycle has completed Series A financing in January 2026 and is expected to receive an investment of 90 million yuan, with a post-investment valuation of 1.09 billion yuan.
Yin Zheng, a well-known actor in the "Flying Life" series of movies, posted a message
"The rural boy who once rode an old motorcycle that kept stalling and falling down but still didn't give up chasing his dream finally put his car on the map and won the championship in a world-class competition! He chased his dream. And this is just the beginning."
Yin Zheng, a well-known actor who has starred in the "Flying Life" series of movies, couldn't help but express the above emotion on Weibo.
He said, "ZX is so impressive! I want to rush! I want to support it with actions!"

In recent times, gold consumption has continued to be hot. Whether it is jewelry for daily wear or gold bars used to store value, it has become a popular choice for many families. However, when many consumers visit gold stores and buy gold jewelry, they encounter a particularly disturbing thing: if they want to know how many grams of gold jewelry they have, the store clerk is either vague, or says that they can only look at it after purchasing, or even hides or folds the label with the weight, so that consumers cannot see the core information clearly before paying.
In order to clarify the real situation, the reporter, as an ordinary consumer, visited many local chain gold stores and brand jewelry counters, and experienced the entire process of gold sales from street shops to shopping mall counters. After a round of visits, the reporter found that "hiding weight" has become a common practice in some gold stores. The right to know that consumers should enjoy has been quietly "hidden" by various means. Around March 15, 2026, market regulatory authorities in many places issued reminders and warnings one after another, clearly requiring that gold jewelry must clearly indicate the weight and must not conceal information, which brought this issue to the public.
1. On-site visit: How common is the routine of hiding weight in gold stores?
The reporter first walked into the chain jewelry counter of a large shopping mall in the city. The counter was filled with all kinds of gold jewelry, including traditional pure gold jewelry priced by the gram, as well as a large number of 3D hard gold and 5G gold jewelry marked with "fixed price." The two kinds of jewelry are placed together, with no obvious partition marks. Without looking carefully, you can't tell which one is sold by the gram and which one is sold by the piece.
The reporter picked up an exquisite gold pendant with a fixed price. On the label, only the conspicuous total price of 3,999 yuan was printed. The material and purity were written in the corner, and the word weight was nowhere to be found. The reporter asked the clerk on the spot: "How many grams does this pendant cost?" The clerk did not answer directly. Instead, he kept introducing the beautiful style, advanced technology, and resistance to deformation. He repeatedly emphasized that "the fixed-price jewelry is more exquisite and cost-effective."
The reporter repeatedly asked about the weight, and the clerk said vaguely: "About three or four grams. You have to open the label after payment to see the exact number." The reporter asked for on-site weighing, but the clerk refused directly: "We cannot weigh without payment. This is the rule of the store. Unpacking will affect secondary sales."
In another street gold shop, the reporter saw something even more outrageous. The label of the fixed-price gold jewelry is deliberately folded up, with a small plastic shell on the outside. Only the total price and brand name can be seen, and the weight, labor costs and other information are all folded inside. The font is as small as an ant. If you don't open the plastic package and flatten the label, you can't see it at all. The store clerk said bluntly: "Our fixed-price jewelry does not mark the weight. You can weigh it yourself when you buy it. You can rest assured that it is pure gold."
There are also some gold shops that play "word games" and only mention the "total price" and "process fee" without mentioning the unit price per gram and the actual weight. When consumers question whether the price is too high, store clerks use "brand premium" and "craftsmanship value" as excuses, deliberately weakening the weight value of gold itself, making consumers mistakenly believe that they are buying cost-effective jewelry. In fact, they spend a lot of money, but the weight of gold purchased is pitifully small.
Among the 12 gold stores visited by the reporter, 8 concealed the weight to varying degrees: either the labels were folded and covered, the fonts were extremely small, they refused to weigh on site and did not proactively inform them, or they reported vague amounts to mislead consumers. Only 4 brand gold stores strictly follow the regulations and display fixed-price and gram-priced jewelry in separate areas. The product name, material, purity, gram weight, total price, and labor cost are clearly marked on the label. The store staff will proactively inform the gram weight information and allow on-site re-weighing.
This current situation has caused many consumers to suffer. Some consumers reported that they spent more than 5,000 yuan to buy a fixed-price gold bracelet, but after going home and weighing it, they found that it only weighed more than 2 grams. The converted gold price per gram was far higher than the gold price of the day. They wanted to return or exchange the bracelet, but the merchant refused because "the jewelry has no quality problem." It is clear that the consumer's right to know has been violated, but in the end the consumer has to bear the loss himself. This is the reason why everyone has the biggest objection to the "hidden weight" behavior.
2. Fixed price ≠ hidden weight: The merchant’s excuse is simply untenable.
In the face of consumer doubts and regulatory requirements, some merchants will always use "fixed price" as an excuse, claiming that "jewelry sold by pieces does not need to be marked with a weight. This is industry practice." But in fact, such a statement has no legal basis at all. It is just an excuse for businesses to conceal information and seek higher profits.
First of all, whether gold jewelry is priced by the gram or sold at a fixed price per piece, the gram weight is the core information that determines the value of the product. The basis of gold's value is its weight and purity. Craftsmanship fees and brand premiums are just added value. Consumers have the right to know how many grams of gold they spent for their money. This is the most basic consumer common sense.
Secondly, national laws and regulations have long clearly stipulated that merchants must protect consumers’ right to know and fulfill their obligation to clearly mark prices. Article 8 of the "Consumer Rights and Interests Protection Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates that consumers have the right to know the true status of the goods they purchase and use, and have the right to require operators to provide important information such as specifications and main ingredients of the goods. Grammar is the core specification of gold jewelry, and merchants must truthfully inform them.
Article 13 of the "Price Law of the People's Republic of China" also clearly requires that operators should clearly mark the price of goods sold, indicating the product name, specifications, unit of measurement, price, etc. The price must be true and accurate, clear in writing, and eye-catching, and information must not be marked in a vague or hidden way. Even if it is a gold jewelry with a fixed price, the weight must be clearly marked, and the "fixed price" cannot be used as a shield to avoid the obligation to clearly mark the price.
From February to March 2026, market regulatory authorities in many places across the country issued the "Reminders and Warnings on Standardizing Gold Jewelry Business Behaviors", which set out more detailed and strict requirements for fixed-price gold jewelry: First, fixed-price and per-gram gold jewelry must be displayed in partitions and cabinets, and eye-catching signs must be set to distinguish pricing methods, and confusion is strictly prohibited; second, First, the product labels must be clear, complete, and eye-catching to indicate the weight, and must not deliberately conceal it by using small fonts, folding to cover, hiding the inside, etc.; third, the sales voucher must clearly state the weight, total price, labor costs and other information to ensure that the ticket is consistent; fourth, the merchant must proactively inform the pricing mechanism and after-sales exchange rules, and must not mislead consumers with vague propaganda.
Regulatory authorities in many places have also made it clear that businesses that do not mark the weight or conceal the weight information are infringements on consumers’ rights to know and fair transactions, and in serious cases constitute price fraud. Once verified, merchants will face penalties such as fines, orders for rectification, and suspension of business for rectification. During March 15, 2026, many gold stores were investigated and punished for concealing weight and irregularly marking prices. The fines ranged from thousands to tens of thousands of yuan.
In terms of industry practice, regular brand gold stores have always insisted on clearly marking the weight and actively informing the information. Concealing the weight is just a speculative behavior of a few unscrupulous merchants. These merchants rely on hiding information to prevent consumers from comparing prices, thereby earning high price differences, which not only harms the interests of consumers, but also disrupts the order of the entire gold consumption market.
3. The right to know is hidden: Where do consumers suffer the loss?
Many consumers think that they didn’t check the weight in advance and just bought it, so there is no need to be serious. But in fact, the right to know is hidden, and consumers suffer far greater losses than imagined, not only economic losses, but also more troubles in after-sales, trade-in and other aspects.
The most direct one is economic loss. The price of gold jewelry priced by the gram is "gold price of the day × gram weight + processing fee". The price is transparent, and it is clear where every penny is spent. After concealing the weight of fixed-price gold jewelry, merchants can set the price at will. The converted price per gram of gold is often 1.5 to 3 times the gold price on that day.
To give a simple example, the price of pure gold that day was 600 yuan/gram. A 5-gram gold pendant sold by the gram had a total price of just over 3,000 yuan. A one-price pendant with the same style was priced at 5,000 yuan by the merchant, but the actual weight was only 3 grams. The converted price per gram was more than 1,600 yuan. Consumers spent nearly 2,000 yuan more, but bought less gold. For ordinary families, the purpose of buying gold is to preserve its value and be practical, but in the end they end up wasting money and turning it into "spending money to buy craftsmanship", which completely violates the original intention of consumption.
Secondly, it is difficult to maintain rights after sales. Gold jewelry is a valuable commodity. Once it is opened after payment, it is difficult to return or exchange it without quality problems. If you don't see the weight clearly when purchasing, and when you get home and find that the weight is inconsistent and the price is inflated, then you go to the merchant to argue, the merchant will refuse to return or exchange on the grounds that "payment has been confirmed" and "the label is marked." Consumers do not retain evidence in advance and are often in a weak position when defending their rights. They either have to admit that they are unlucky or spend a lot of time and energy complaining and mediating.
There is also the trade-in pitfall. After buying gold jewelry, many consumers will want to trade in old jewelry for new ones, and the core basis for trade-in is the weight of the gold. If the exact weight is not known at the time of purchase, merchants can make a fuss about weighing, loss fees, and depreciation fees when replacing new ones, deliberately lowering the weight of old gold and overcharging, causing consumers to suffer losses again during the replacement process.
More importantly, the right to know is the basis of all consumer rights. Without the right to know, consumers will not be able to choose and compare products on their own, make correct consumption decisions, and the right to fair trade will be out of the question. Merchants concealing weight is essentially taking advantage of information asymmetry to allow consumers to passively consume without knowing it. This is a direct infringement of consumers' legitimate rights and interests.
4. Supervision is exerting its force: to rectify the seriousness of Tibetan crimes, the market is becoming more standardized
What is gratifying is that in the gold consumer market, regulatory authorities from the national to local levels have been working hard to address issues such as concealing weight and irregularly marked prices in the gold consumer market. In 2026, they will intensify rectification efforts to make the gold consumer market more and more standardized.
Before and after the International Consumer Rights Day on March 15, 2026, the State Administration for Market Regulation organized a nationwide special inspection of the gold and jewelry market, focusing on investigating and punishing illegal activities such as concealing weight, false pricing, price fraud, and inaccurate measurement. Market supervision departments in various places acted simultaneously, going into shopping malls and gold stores to conduct on-site inspections, checking labeling, weighing and measurement, and zoning display conditions on-site, ordering rectifications on the spot for irregularities, and severely punishing violations of laws and regulations in accordance with the law.
During the special inspection, the regulatory authorities emphasized three core requirements: First, measuring instruments must be qualified. When weighing gold jewelry, it is important to use measuring instruments with a graduation value of no more than 0.001g, and the weighing deviation must not exceed 0.01g. It is strictly prohibited to use unqualified weighing instruments and falsify weighing data; secondly, , clearly marked prices must be in place, the weight of fixed-price gold jewelry must be clearly marked, and the fonts must not be folded, covered, or reduced. The two pricing methods must be placed in separate areas; thirdly, information disclosure must be proactive, and store employees must proactively inform the weight, labor costs, pricing mechanism, and after-sales rules, and must not avoid or mislead consumers.
In addition to offline inspections, online gold sales are also included in the scope of supervision. Gold and jewelry stores on major e-commerce platforms also need to clearly mark the weight, purity, and pricing method, and are not allowed to conceal information or make false propaganda in the live broadcast room. The platform cooperates with regulatory authorities and takes penalties such as removing products from the shelves, restricting traffic, and closing stores for illegal stores, so as to unify online and offline gold consumption standards.
The industry is also actively self-disciplined. Many leading gold brands have taken the lead in responding to regulatory requirements, comprehensively standardizing labeling, display methods, and employee service procedures, proactively publicizing pricing rules and after-sales policies, and taking the lead in fulfilling the obligation to clearly mark prices, setting an example for small and medium-sized gold stores. More and more gold stores realize that only by operating with integrity and information transparency can they win the trust of consumers. Relying on concealing information for short-term profits will not make long-term progress.
Consumers' awareness of rights protection is also constantly improving. When buying gold, more and more people take the initiative to ask to check the weight and weigh it on site. If they encounter any behavior that conceals information, they directly call the 12315 hotline to complain and report. Consumer supervision, coupled with law enforcement by regulatory authorities, has formed a joint governance force, making the behavior of "hidden and heavy" increasingly less likely to survive.
5. Guide to avoid pitfalls when buying gold: Remember these steps, and the right to know is firmly in your hands
Facing the changes in the gold consumption market, consumers no longer have to worry about being cheated. As long as they remember these simple and practical steps, they can firmly grasp the right to know and buy gold with confidence without suffering any losses.
The first step is to clarify the pricing method when entering the store. Regular gold stores will display gram-priced and fixed-price jewelry in separate sections, with clear signs. After entering the store, look at the sections first to make sure which one you want to choose. Don’t be misled by confusingly displayed accessories.
The second step is to read the label before buying. If you don’t see the weight clearly, you won’t pay. When you pick up gold jewelry, you must first read the label. You must find clear information on weight, purity, total price, and labor costs. If the label is folded and the font is too small, just ask the store clerk to flatten it and open the plastic package to check. If you can't see the weight, give up decisively.
The third step is to proactively request on-site weighing. No matter what the clerk says, they insist on re-weighing on site to check whether the weighing result is consistent with the label weight. If the merchant refuses to weigh, it means he has something wrong with him. Just leave without hesitation.
The fourth step is to ask about the after-sales and trade-in rules. Ask in advance the return and exchange policy, the wear and tear fees, depreciation fees, and labor fee standards for trade-in, and ask the store clerk to write the verbal promise on the sales voucher to avoid after-sales wrangling.
Step 5: Keep all credentials. After payment, be sure to keep the label, sales receipt, invoice, and warranty card, which must contain information such as weight, price, material, etc. These are important evidence for subsequent rights protection.
On March 31, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning hosted a regular press conference. A reporter asked: According to reports, the Self-Defense Forces officer who broke into the Chinese Embassy in Japan armed with a knife has been sent for inspection by the Japanese police. What is China’s comment on this?
Mao Ning presided over the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Mao Ning pointed out that this incident exposed the depth and harm of Japan's right-wing ideology and distorted view of history. According to reports, Japan’s National Defense University has a so-called practice of collectively visiting the Yasukuni Shrine every year. In 2024, a former senior Maritime Self-Defense Force official actually served as the Palace Secretary of the Yasukuni Shrine. This is the first time that a retired Self-Defense Force general has held the highest position of the Yasukuni Shrine.
Mao Ning said that the Self-Defense Forces have long invited far-right elements who are extremely anti-China to participate in teaching, and the training materials are full of content that distorts and beautifies the history of World War II aggression.
"The parents of the Self-Defense Forces official who illegally broke into the Chinese Embassy said that he did not behave in extreme ways when he was growing up and studying in his hometown, and they had no idea why he did what he did. This person received a nine-month reserve cadre training course in the Self-Defense Forces. During this process, what thoughts and education the Self-Defense Forces instilled in him deserve attention, investigation and deep thought." Mao Ning said.
Mao Ning reiterated that the Japanese Self-Defense Forces have shifted to the right and Japan's "remilitarization" deserves high vigilance from the international community. China once again urges Japan to thoroughly investigate the incident and fundamentally prevent such incidents from happening again.

Chills down my spine! Murata Akira's sly smile and the "military song" behind him...
On March 26, 2026 local time, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department handed over the suspect Kodai Murata to the prosecutors for forcing his way into the Chinese Embassy in Japan. His frontal photo was publicly exposed by many Japanese media.
The exposed footage showed that during the transfer, 23-year-old Murata Kodai was wearing dark casual clothes. Facing the camera, there was no trace of regret, panic or fear on his face.
Instead, he smiled.
Kodai Murata smiled in front of the camera
What is even more chilling than this weird smile is the faint background sound that can be heard at the transfer site. The video showed that someone at the scene was singing the song of the Showa Restoration, and the slogan "Fight bloody to the end, long live long live" was particularly harsh.
The Song of the Showa Restoration is the iconic poison song of Japanese militarism. The lyricist, Taku Mikami, was one of the masterminds of the "May 15th Incident" in 1932. In 1936, young officers of the Japanese Army sang this song and launched the "226 Mutiny".
It is no coincidence that such a song, which is deeply associated with militarism, subjugation of superiors, and violent coups, sounded at the transfer site of the perpetrators suspected of attacking Chinese diplomatic missions.
Echoing the suspect's arrogance, Japanese officials are talking about him.
On March 27, Japanese Defense Minister Shinjiro Koizumi finally responded, but he did not apologize to China and only called the incident "regrettable."
Shinjiro Koizumi only called the incident "regrettable"
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi remained silent.
If we push back the time to March 24, the day when Murata Akira broke into the museum, some details that deserve more attention have emerged.
That morning, Murata broke into the museum.
At the press conference of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the afternoon, China took the lead in disclosing this vicious incident.
Prior to this, the Japanese media, which has always been known as "well-informed", had no voice at all.
Also that afternoon, at the press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan, Toshimitsu Motegi said nothing about this. What's even more ironic is that at the Ministry of Defense press conference that morning, Shinjiro Koizumi was still talking about the so-called "China's cognitive war."
It wasn't until China disclosed the case that Japan slowly and reluctantly said a few words of regret and that it would investigate the case strictly. The Ministry of Defense even argued that the murderer's "words and deeds were normal."
In order to cool down the incident, the Sankei Shimbun specifically interviewed Kohiro Murata's parents, emphasizing that his parents are ordinary people with a stable family environment and that there are no posts on social media that suggest crime or "anti-China ideas."
Someone has noticed that there was a similar case in history.
Coincidentally, on the same month and day as this incident, on March 24, 1964, the U.S. Ambassador to Japan Edwin Reischauer was stabbed in the thigh by a 19-year-old boy (who had been hospitalized for schizophrenia) in front of the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo, and was seriously injured.
The Japanese government at the time demonstrated an "extraordinary" response speed.
Immediately after the incident, Foreign Minister Masayoshi Ohira went to visit, and Prime Minister Yuto Ikeda also tried to visit, but Toranomon Hospital where Reischauer was hospitalized was so overcrowded that reporters and other personnel crowded the hospital and they could not even enter.
The picture shows a screenshot of relevant reports
Before the United States could launch an attack, then-Prime Minister Ikeda Hayato personally called U.S. President Johnson to express his deep regret and apologized to the American people on behalf of the Japanese people via satellite broadcast.
The day after the incident, Takaya Hayakawa, then chairman of the National Public Security Commission, immediately announced his resignation to show his responsibility.
Takaya Hayakawa, then chairman of the National Public Security Commission, immediately announced his resignation to show his responsibility. The picture is a screenshot of the report.
Strengthening the security of foreign dignitaries also became an important issue, which led to the establishment of the Metropolitan Police Department Security Section (later renamed the Metropolitan Police Department Security Police).
However, on the same day 62 years later, the Chinese Embassy in Japan was violently attacked by active Japanese Self-Defense Forces officers with knives. In the face of more serious foreign-related incidents involving active self-defense officers, the Japanese government's attitude has completely changed.
As we all know, the act of "apologizing" is deeply rooted in Japan's social and cultural system.
Someone described the importance of apology in Japanese society this way: The skill that must be mastered in Japan is "apology." If you make a serious mistake, you must bow deeply at 90 degrees. If you still can't solve it, kneel down and kowtow to "apologise." This is usually forgiven.
The act of “apologizing” is deeply ingrained in Japanese society and cultural system
Therefore, "apologizing" is a particularly easy gesture for Japanese people to make.
Of course, "apology" actions such as bowing and kneeling do not really mean reflection and repentance in Japan.
In recent years, decades-long fraud scandals involving major Japanese companies have been exposed one after another. For this reason, spokespeople from these companies have repeatedly bowed to "apologize" at press conferences. After the earthquake in Japan, the government was slow to provide disaster relief, and the relevant "responsible person" also publicly "apologized".
Toyota Motor Chairman bows to "apologize"
The bowing is over, the "apology" is over, what next? There is no more. The problem that should be solved remains unresolved.
If the above examples are not convincing enough, then the remarks of Japanese Congressman Yaichi Tanigawa are very direct.
The Japanese Liberal Democratic Party congressman who was suspected of accepting more than 40 million yen in "kickbacks" announced his resignation and apologized at a press conference. But then he was asked by reporters anxiously, and he made the following remarks:
"Isn't it okay that I was wrong? Can't you understand? Do you want me to die?"
It can be seen that in Japan, "apology" does not mean admitting a mistake, but is more often just a formality. I "apologized", then you should forgive me and stop blaming me.
But after members of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces broke into the Chinese Embassy, even this form of "apology" has not been made by Japan so far.
From Sanae Takaichi to Kodai Murata himself, no one has any intention of apologizing.
On the one hand, there is a social culture that is accustomed to "apology", and on the other hand, there is a rigid attitude of never "apologizing" on certain issues.
The most prominent one is the historical issue.
The late former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe once expressed this view: People born after the war in Japan have exceeded 80% of the total population. These Japanese and their descendants who "have nothing to do with that war" "can no longer bear the fate of continuing to apologize." This view is embraced by many right-wingers.
Regarding the embassy matter, Japanese public opinion and the government also did the same. The Japanese government and Self-Defense Forces organizations talk about "regret", and Japanese public opinion generally exaggerates that this is a "personal behavior" and does not think it is a problem of its own social system at all.
In other words, until now, from the individual who carried out this incident to the system that should be responsible for the occurrence of this kind of thing, no one even feels that they have done something wrong and need to be responsible for it.
This is the most infuriating and the most alarming thing.
In the matter of breaking into the museum, the real problem is not a "Murata Kodai", but the soil where "Murata Kodai" are allowed to breed.
Historically, incidents of "rage" by Japanese soldiers occurred frequently. From the "May 15th Incident" and "February 26th Mutiny" in Japan, to the September 18th Incident and the July 7th Incident carried out by the Japanese invaders, all were initiated by the Japanese military "alone" by adhering to the concept of "lower to overcome the upper", which eventually led to the entire Japan being kidnapped by militarism.
Incidents of "rage" by Japanese soldiers occurred frequently
Decades later, active-duty officers of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force broke into the Chinese Embassy with weapons, and a Maritime Self-Defense Force frigate ignored China’s warning and broke into China’s territorial waters...
What's more serious is that Japan's political arena has been shifting to the right in recent years. Article 9 of the Peace Constitution has been constantly being ignored. The role of the Self-Defense Forces has changed from "defense" to "offensive". More offensive weapons are being installed in the Self-Defense Forces through various channels.
Needless to say, it goes without saying how serious the consequences will be if the Japanese Self-Defense Forces, which possesses offensive weapons, "go alone" in the future.
The Japanese government's passive attitude is sending a signal: extreme hostility towards China is allowed. It will inspire more far-right elements to take more radical action, creating a vicious cycle.
China's position on this incident is clear and firm: Japan must give China an explanation.
This is not only the responsibility and obligation that Japan must fulfill to China in accordance with the basic norms of international relations, international law and relevant international treaties, but also a reasonable explanation on behalf of Japan to Asian countries that have been deeply harmed by militaristic colonial expansion, and to countries around the world that have been deeply harmed by fascism.
Perhaps some Japanese people feel that if this matter is delayed, the story will be over.
But no. Just like historical issues, until a day of thorough reflection comes, Japan will never be relieved of its guilt.
Are you running into a lot of pitfalls when running an jewelry business and hoping to rely on Xiaohongshu to attract traffic? After working hard to take photos and write copy, the notes were only viewed a few dozen times, and there were only a few likes and collections. I had no direction to find popular ideas. It took a long time to type and publish manually. It took a long time to create some traffic, but it was easy to be restricted. Novice merchants were even more confused about the platform rules. They watched their peers placing orders every day, but they could never open the traffic entrance. In fact, the operation of Xiaohongshu Jewelry does not rely on brute force at all. If you find the right method and use good tools, ordinary people can easily make high-traffic and high-conversion notes, saving half a year of detours.
The core of Xiaohongshu's operation in the jewelry track: grasp the traffic logic and avoid ineffective internal friction
The Xiaohongshu jewelry track is a high-quality vertical category with high demand and high conversion. Young female users account for more than 85%. Whether it is affordable niche accessories, affordable luxury jewelry or customized jewelry, you can find a precise audience. However, many merchants fail because they do not understand the platform algorithm. Either the content is seriously homogenized or the publishing operation is irregular. If you want to do well in this track, you must first clarify the core logic: the content must fit the user's aesthetics, the release must be efficient and compliant, and the hot products must be accurately copied, and these can be easily implemented with the help of professional tools.
If you want to quickly make notes on hot-selling jewelry, it is most taboo to write blindly. The shortcut is to find out the logic of hot-selling jewelry from your peers. Many novice merchants manually browse Xiaohongshu every day to find popular products, but they still can't grasp the core after spending several hours. In fact, using the right method can greatly improve efficiency. The Fire Rabbit Toolbox comes with a one-click function to collect popular items, which can accurately filter high-quality notes in the jewelry category that have received more than 1,000 likes and collected over 500 collections in the past 7 days. It can directly disassemble the title, cover, and copy structure without having to analyze each article by yourself. In a few minutes, you can sort out a set of replicable popular templates, which is more than 10 times more efficient than blind exploration.
Huotu Toolbox has made breakthroughs in self-developed multi-model fusion technology for six consecutive months, integrating the creative advantages of multiple high-quality AI platforms, and customizing exclusive graphic and text creation ideas for the jewelry industry. Whether it is daily planting notes, scene matching copywriting, or product details explanation, it can quickly generate content that fits the tone of Xiaohongshu and fully meets the creative needs of jewelry merchants. There is no need to worry about how to write copy and how to match pictures.
80% of the reason why accessory notes have poor traffic and are restricted is due to the use of banned words on the platform, such as exaggerated efficacy, illegal marketing words, and sensitive expressions. Many merchants unknowingly use this method, causing notes to be restricted and hidden, and even affecting the weight of their accounts. Especially in the jewelry category, statements involving materials, effects, and prices can easily violate regulations. At this time, you must do a good job of checking for prohibited words. The prohibited word detection function of the Fire Rabbit Toolbox can scan the entire copy with one click, accurately mark the illegal words, and provide modification suggestions to ensure that each note is published in compliance with the regulations, avoid the current limit problem from the root, and maintain the account traffic base.
Xiaohongshu popular notes for jewelry creation list, copy the homework directly
・Cover layout: [Close-up of accessories + scene matching + text hook] Give priority to real-life photos with natural light, highlight the quality of accessories, and match scenes such as commuting, dating, commuting, etc. The title uses pain points such as "a slimming necklace for round faces" and "affordable niche earrings that don't hit the mark". The click-through rate is more than 60% higher than that of pure product posing.
・Copywriting structure: [Introducing pain points + product selling points + wearing experience + guiding interaction] The beginning will highlight the user’s pain points in dressing, the middle will clarify the material, style, and cost-effectiveness, and the end will guide comments and messages to increase the interaction rate of notes. The higher the interaction, the more traffic will be pushed to the platform.
・Tag matching: [Accurate vertical tags + popular traffic tags] For example, # Jewelry Sharing #Niche Necklace # Affordable Earrings, match 3-5 accurate tags. Do not pile up irrelevant tags to avoid affecting the accuracy of traffic.
After the note creation is completed, the publishing process is also the key to affecting traffic. Many merchants take a long time to publish manually, and the publishing interval is not well controlled. It is also easy to trigger platform risk control, resulting in unstable traffic. Huotu Toolbox relies on web page and framework automation technology to achieve efficient operation of publishing 10 notes in one minute. It supports custom setting of publishing intervals, and combines tens of thousands of practical experience in multi-industry publishing to optimize the publishing rhythm that is most suitable for Xiaohongshu. It can not only improve operational efficiency, but also avoid platform detection, making the flow of notes more stable, and no longer having to stay up late to publish.
If you want to maintain a good jewelry Xiaohongshu account for a long time, regular account physical examinations are essential. Many merchants ignore the account status, and the reason for the decline in weight and traffic is unknown. The account detection function of Huotu Toolbox can comprehensively check account weight, note violations, and traffic anomalies, generate exclusive detection reports, and provide targeted optimization suggestions, such as adjusting content direction, optimizing publishing frequency, helping merchants stop losses in a timely manner, and gradually increase account weight, so that subsequent note traffic will continue to increase.
In addition to core functions, Huotu Toolbox also covers a large number of jewelry industry templates. From note titles and text to accompanying pictures and copywriting, all scene templates are directly applied. Novice merchants do not need to create from scratch and can use it immediately. Moreover, this all-round content creation assistant is suitable for all walks of life and has been deeply optimized for the jewelry category. The content after model fusion is more in line with the platform's traffic preferences. It is highly original and readable, making it easy to create differentiated content and get rid of homogeneous competition.
Final summary: When operating Xiaohongshu, a jewelry merchant, efficiency + methods are the key to success.
The operation of Xiaohongshu for accessories is not that difficult. The core is to find the right ideas for popular products, ensure content compliance, and efficiently publish and operate it to avoid the pitfalls of blind trial and error. From finding popular products, writing copy, checking prohibited items, to publishing, and checking accounts, with the help of the Huotu Toolbox, you can save 80% of your operating time and focus on product selection and customer maintenance. Novices can quickly start accounts, and veterans can amplify traffic. There is no need to worry about technical problems, just follow this set of practical methods, and you will slowly be able to create your own account that attracts huge sales, making Xiaohongshu the core channel for the jewelry business.
