Coetzee’s new novel is published, and he has no hope for the adult world like a pessimistic believer.

The book cover of the student days of Jesus.

In 2003, Coetzee, the Nobel Prize in Literature laureate, published his new novel The Schooldays of Jesus in the UK in August this year.

Nobel Prize in Literature winner Coetzee.

This novel is the sequel to his last work, The Childhood of Jesus. In The Childhood of Jesus, Simon, an old man, took David, a boy, from a refugee camp in the desert to Novella, a Spanish-speaking city. They lost their memories, and even their surnames were taken by others. Simon took David to find his birth mother. Finally, the three of them completely despaired of the orderly but passionate Novella and left it for the next city, Estella.

The story of "The Schooldays of Jesus" begins here. Simon and Yi Ni take David to Estella. They work on a farm, and David soon enters the local dance academy. This is a mystical dance academy, which "devotes itself to guiding students’ souls to the sky, so that souls can fit in with the movement of the great universe-or dance". David quickly learned to express "noble numbers from the planet" with dance, and met Dmitry, a museum security guard. Dmitri fell madly in love with the dance teacher Madeleine, and finally killed her.

Like its prequel, The Times of Students attracted many readers’ complaints: "English translation like Spanish", "environmental description like IKEA" and "too few social details to make the characters stereoscopic".

Its plot is not always convincing: in Jesus’ Childhood, Simon, who promised to find David’s biological mother, confirmed that she was David’s mother when she first met Yinis, and she undoubtedly accepted and formed a family with them; David, a boy, is suspiciously precocious. In the book, he speaks amazingly and makes remarks such as "I am the truth".

As a reader, I feel that time passes slowly in a mysterious world where my memory is banished. When faced with a novel that lacks reading pleasure, it is easy for us to have rejection ("this is a terrible writing") or self-doubt ("I must be too stupid to read his profound meaning"), but there may be another way, that is, to try to understand the writer-what kind of person is Coetzee? What’s he thinking?

First of all, Kutcher is very cold.

Thin, tall, silver hair, a pair of thoughtful, slightly narrowed eyes. Look at him, and then look at Marquez-thick eyebrows, big hands, Mario-like grin-and you can immediately feel the temperature difference between them.

This critic James Wood once said, and also found evidence in Coetzee’s memoir Youth published in 2002:

"If he is a more enthusiastic person, he will undoubtedly find it easier to do all this: life, love and poetry."

Coetzee does not belong to the mural writer with dense brushwork, but his past language can never be considered dry:

"ninety minutes a week with a woman is enough to make him feel happy, which makes him feel very strange, because he always thought he needed a wife, a home and marriage. In fact, his needs are very light, light and short-lived, just like the needs of butterflies. There is no emotional impulse, or only the deepest and most difficult feeling to guess: a most basic sense of satisfaction, like the buzz from the road urging the city people to sleep gradually, and like the silence that makes the country people sleep at night. " ("shame")

In the two works of Jesus series, the temperature of his character dialogue plummeted and he has retreated to the outline style:

"He and Yinis exchanged glances. Should they follow Juan’s advice? Money is not a problem. He has a lot of money in his pocket. It is not a problem for them to stay in a hotel. But officials in Novella are chasing them, and maybe they are safer among the unknown temporary residents.

Yes,’ said Yinis. Let’s live on this farm. We’ve been locked in the car long enough. Poliva needs to run.’

I think so,’ Simon said. However, the farm is not a place for a holiday. Are you ready, Yinis, to pick fruit in the hot sun every day?’

I’ll try my best,’ said Yinis. Neither more nor less.’

Can I pick fruit?’ The boy asked.

I’m sorry, you can’t,’ Juan said. This is illegal. This is child labor.’

I don’t mind working as a child.’ The boy said. "

Is this language style an imitation of the Bible? The plot of Jesus series is intertextual with the Bible. If the precocious David represents Jesus, then Simon and Yinis seem to represent Joseph and Mary respectively. The story follows a sacred family in exile in the empty text land, and the reader seems to vaguely understand that this is Coetzee creating his own gospel. In recent years, he has become more and more close to religion, and the self-analysis of his past works, which is almost cruel, seems to indicate this.

In the novel "Bad Age", the protagonist is highly coincident with Coetzee, who is also an elderly South American writer living in Australia. He recalls that his father once thought he was a selfish child, and his art lacked "generosity, no praise for life and no love"; In his memoir "Youth", he confessed his appearance defects, his mental life moaning without illness, and his emptiness after passion-honesty has always been Coetzee’s virtue, but it is always separated by a layer: "Youth" is a memoir, but Coetzee chose the third person.

This is certainly not the first time Coetzee has expressed his views in a roundabout way.

He hardly gives interviews to the media, does not attend the Booker Prize ceremony, and even if he gives a Nobel Prize in Literature Prize-winning speech, he still chooses to tell an obscure and tortuous story.

He likes to make a confession by fictional doppelganger: in Elizabeth Costello: Eight Classes, Coetzee teaches animal life, African humanities, evil problems and sexual desires through his female avatar Elizabeth. He speaks freely and at the same time excuses himself from his speech, which sometimes makes people wonder whether that remark was Coetzee’s opinion or just that of a fictional character.

"Summer" is even bolder. Coetzee directly "murdered" himself, and let the biographer Vincent build a multifaceted and even unbearable self by interviewing the late writer "Coetzee" in the eyes of others … Coetzee, like a deeply poisoned Russian doll, kept adding brackets, brackets and brackets to the narrative until the brackets themselves became an inseparable part of the narrative.

Since Shame in 1999, Coetzee began to try to "nonfiction" the novel, and created a series of memoirs, essays and biographies that are difficult to distinguish between true and false. Now, in Jesus series, he has returned to his most familiar allegorical writing again. However, this time, the allegory is not as strongly insinuating the injustice and hypocrisy of the South American colonies as Waiting for the Barbarian and Michael K’s Life and Times in his early years.

In Childhood of Jesus and Student Life of Jesus, Simon or David talked with porters, government officials and dance teachers and expressed their views on various grand themes: passion, lust, power, order and shame … It sounds like Plato’s tone, but it is not as clear and meticulous as the Republic.

Simon once had a lover in Novella. When he sought passion from other women, the lover said:

"This endless dissatisfaction, this desire for’ more’, this way of thinking has long been eliminated, I think. Nothing is missing. What you think is missing is an illusion. You are living by illusion. "

Such a speech embellishes the whole story. There are many reasons, but the taste is very weak. Coetzee doesn’t seem to care whether this dialogue is credible or far-fetched, because it is a fable, and readers who have concluded a trust treaty with the writer should believe the rationality of the story, even if the writer doesn’t provide enough perceptual details, social details and emotional details like Bunyan’s description of pilgrim’s progress or Dante’s description of hell. However, I have to say that it is too difficult to fish with a hook without a sharp hook.

David and his party lost all their memories before they came to Novella, which may be a hint from Coetzee: readers who open this book should also wash away their memories of the real world and enter this uncomfortable place unarmed. For Coetzee, who has always been metaphysical, a "real and sensible world" may not be his interest; In other words, what he wants to extract through the novel is another kind of truth.

In 2012, Coetzee gave a speech to the graduates of the University of Witwatersrand in South Africa for the first time. He made a puzzling appeal to the male students among the graduates, hoping that they could devote themselves to the cause of primary education, because "as far as what we call the’ real world’ job is concerned, one of the boring facts is that when you sell things to others, buy things from others, or fiddle with numbers on the computer screen all day, you will have a feeling of being hard to get rid of.

If you work with children, I promise you will never feel this way. Children may be tiring and annoying, but they are complete human beings. In the classroom, you can experience a sense of nakedness that you can’t experience in the world where adults work. "

Only children are complete people, and only the children’s world has not been whitewashed to appear sincere-Coetzee, who said this, sounded like a pessimistic believer and had no hope for the adult world.

Coetzee was not the only writer who turned his back on the real world and built the fable Lego. Kafka wrote Castle, kazuo ishiguro wrote No Comfort, and Beckett, which Coetzee loved … These works were all books that refused to bring pleasure to reading: the reader followed the protagonist to an unknown world, his wishes and expectations were constantly frustrated, and doubts and repression accumulated like a snowball … Coetzee added a sigh to this little nightmare showroom.

Are you getting enough whole grain food?

We know that compared with refined grains, whole grains contain more dietary fiber, fat, vitamins, minerals, polyphenols and other plant active substances, which have better health benefits for human body. Increasing whole grain intake is beneficial to weight control and reducing the risk of chronic diseases related to diet, such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes and tumors. Therefore, the recommended intake of whole grains is defined for the first time in the latest dietary guidelines for China residents, and the importance of whole grains intake is emphasized.

So what is the whole grain intake of China residents? How to increase the intake of whole grains?

The latest Dietary Guidelines for China Residents 2016.It is recommended to consume 50-150g of whole grains every day.

In the latest edition of Dietary Guidelines for China Residents (2016), the first recommendation is "Food is diverse, mainly cereals". Grain-oriented is an important feature of Chinese’s balanced diet model. It is suggested that the average adult should consume 250~400 g of cereals and potatoes every day, among whichWhole grains contain 50-150g of miscellaneous beans.50~100 g of potatoes.

Compared with the dietary guidelines for China residents in 2007, the latest version of the revised dietary guidelines replaces coarse grains with whole grains. Whole grain refers to the grain that has not been refined or has retained the endosperm, germ, bran composition and its natural nutrients of the whole grain despite grinding/crushing/tabletting.

The daily intake of whole grains by adult residents is less than 15g.It is far from the recommended intake of 50-150g/day.

In order to fully and accurately understand the consumption of coarse grains among adults in China, Professor He Yuna from the Institute of Nutrition and Health of China Center for Disease Control and Prevention and others used the monitoring data of nutrition and health status of residents in China from 2010 to 2012 to analyze the consumption of coarse grains among residents aged 18 and above in China. The research results were published in the Journal of Nutrition in the first half of the year.

The survey results show that the daily intake of whole grains for adult men in China is 13.9g, and that for women is 14.6 g; Rural areas are slightly higher than urban areas, which are 15.5g/d and 13.0g/d respectively. Grouped by age, generally speaking, the older you are, the higher your whole grain intake is, and the intake of women is slightly higher than that of men.

Compared with the minimum recommended intake of whole grains of 50g as the reference value, the proportion of the whole grains intake of different populations in China reaches or exceeds the reference value is 7%~16.7% (as shown in the following figure), so more than 80% of adult residents have insufficient intake of whole grains.

How to increase the intake of whole grains?

The latest dietary guidelines also give some very good suggestions on how to increase the intake of whole grains.

Make whole grains a good meal partner.

Whole grain foods are diverse and nutritious. It is recommended to eat 50-150g of whole grains every day, which is equivalent to 1/4-1/3 of the whole grains in a day. Whole grain oatmeal, whole grain bread, small rice, etc. can all be part of the diet.

Blend into the staple food

Whole grains such as oats, millet, corn, whole wheat flour, etc. can be directly used as staple foods, and at least one meal in three meals a day is whole grains. For example, eat oatmeal, eight-treasure porridge, millet porridge, etc. for breakfast, and for lunch, mix corn flour, mung bean flour, oatmeal flour, or choose whole wheat flour; Put a handful of oats, brown rice, etc. in white rice.

Blend into dishes

Some whole grain foods can also be used as delicious dishes, such as kidney beans and flower beans, which can be made into delicious cold dishes after being boiled soft, or the fast-cooked whole grains can be mixed with vegetables to make nutritious and delicious dishes.

Clever use of modern cookers

Consumers who are used to the fine and soft taste of refined rice flour may feel that the entrance of whole grains is rough, and they will be uncomfortable at the beginning of eating whole grains. In this regard, we can play the role of modern kitchen cookers to improve the taste, such as making whole grain rice paste with soybean milk machine and cooking oatmeal rice with oats with rice cooker, which can make whole grains more delicious.

Look at the "vitality" in the holiday market | Policy "combination boxing" to boost the automobile consumption market

CCTV News:During the "Eleventh" holiday, the reporter visited various places and learned that both the new car sales market of new energy vehicles and the second-hand car trading market showed a rising trend. In addition, with the support of a number of favorable policies, consumer enthusiasm continues to rise.

This holiday, Mr. Zhou, who lives in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, bought a new energy vehicle worth 330,000 yuan, according to "the price of a single vehicle is 300,000 yuan — Mr. Zhou can get a subsidy of 6,000 yuan for the standard of subsidizing 6,000 yuan below 400,000 yuan.

During the "Eleventh" holiday, consumers in Dezhou, Shandong Province can enjoy a one-time subsidy ranging from 3,000 yuan to 6,000 yuan when purchasing new energy passenger cars. In addition, they are exempted from the purchase tax of 4.5% of the car price, the travel tax in 360 yuan, and the replacement subsidy of up to 6,000 yuan and the cash benefit of up to 20,000 yuan given by manufacturers, which makes many consumers feel excited.

Not only the new car market, this holiday, the second-hand car trading market is also stimulated by the policy, and the trading volume has risen linearly. The reporter visited the used car trading market in Huaxiang, Beijing, and learned that the transaction volume of car inspection and transfer has increased by 30%.

How many of these vaccine rumors have you believed?

Proverbs 1

Improving personal hygiene and environmental hygiene can keep diseases away, and there is no need for vaccination.

fact

No matter how clean the environment is, many infectious diseases can still spread.

If vaccination is stopped, the infectious diseases targeted by the vaccine will come back.

Although improving personal and environmental hygiene can help people stay away from infectious diseases, many infectious diseases can still spread no matter how clean the environment is. If vaccination is not carried out, some diseases that are already uncommon, such as polio and measles, will soon reappear.

Proverbs 2

Everyone has been vaccinated, so I can do without it.

fact

Only by forming a solid immune barrier can the spread of diseases be prevented and controlled.

The two main reasons for choosing vaccination are to protect ourselves and protect the people around us. Only by forming a solid immune barrier can we prevent and control the spread of diseases.

A successful vaccination program is like a successful society, and the well-being of the whole people can only be achieved by the cooperation of each individual. We should not only rely on people around us to stop the spread of diseases, but also do our part.

Proverbs 3

It is better to get immunity through disease than through vaccine.

fact

Immunization through natural infection can be costly.

The immune response produced by the interaction between vaccine and immune system is similar to that produced by natural infection, but vaccines generally do not cause diseases and do not threaten the recipients with potential complications. In contrast, acquiring immunity through natural infection may be costly. For example, infection with Haemophilus influenzae type B (Hib) can lead to mental retardation, rubella can lead to birth defects, hepatitis and even liver cancer can be caused by hepatitis B virus, and measles can lead to death.

Hechuan: Hot pot "scalds" hundreds of billions of industries.

A few days ago, Chongqing Hot Pot Ingredients Industrial Park was officially unveiled in Hechuan District. Hechuan put forward the goal of building a comprehensive service system for hot pot ingredients and building a whole chain industrial ecosystem, striving to achieve the total industrial output value of hot pot ingredients industry of 50 billion yuan by 2030 and drive the total industrial output value of hot pot ingredients industry chain of 100 billion yuan.

Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to build a new service system with high quality and high efficiency, and promote the deep integration of modern service industry with advanced manufacturing industry and modern agriculture.

Hot pot is the business card of Chongqing. Chongqing hot pot is known as "one pot to cook the world", and every ingredient behind it is an industrial chain. Then, why did Hechuan, located in western Chongqing, choose to deeply cultivate the hot pot ingredients industry, and put forward the goal of building the whole industrial chain of hot pot ingredients and building the highland of the national hot pot ingredients industry? Recently, the reporter walked into Hechuan to find out.

Hot pot food industry hidden in boudoir

"Hechuan’s layout of the hot pot food industry is not’ out of nothing’." On October 31, Peng Guangdong, deputy director of the Agricultural and Rural Committee of Hechuan District, told the reporter. In a survey at the beginning of this year, they found that there are more than 100 hot pot ingredients processing enterprises in Hechuan, with an annual output value of 5 billion yuan, accounting for 48.3% of the total output value of agricultural products processing in the whole region. Many of these enterprises are "time-honored brands" in the hot pot ingredients industry and have a certain "Jianghu status".

Why has the ingredient industry of Hechuan hot pot been hidden in the boudoir for many years?

Peng Guangdong introduced that when it comes to hot pot, consumers first think of hot pot stores, and the ingredients behind them, such as butter, hairy belly and duck intestines, are often easily overlooked.

Hechuan’s hot pot food industry started with hairy belly. In the 1990s, a group of Hechuan people engaged in beef omasum wholesale business in Dayanggou Farmers’ Market in Jie Fangbei, and gradually developed into factories and enterprises from carrying backpacks and selling large pots in the street. Later, due to the industrial transformation and upgrading in the central city of Chongqing, they returned to Hechuan for development, which gradually led to the gathering of hairy belly industry, and a number of hairy belly brands such as "Princess Sha" and "Dewei" emerged. According to statistics, in 2021, the annual output of beef omasum in Hechuan will reach 70 million Jin, accounting for about 1/3 of that in Southwest China, and it has great influence all over the country.

Let’s talk about hot pot bottom material. There are 101 processing enterprises in Hechuan, which mainly focus on hot pot seasoning, with an output value of 4.89 billion yuan. The main sales channel is customized or order-based procurement for catering enterprises, so it is not well known to the public.

"Our main business is to customize the production of hot pot bottom materials for catering enterprises." Located in Hechuan Industrial Park, Chongqing Meixiangyuan Industrial Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Chongqing Meixiangyuan") is an enterprise engaged in the production of compound condiments. Director Zheng Chuanbo told reporters that the company has an annual output of 100,000 tons of compound condiments, of which 60% is hot pot bottom material. According to the requirements of catering enterprises, the company has developed more than 1000 categories of hot pot bottom materials, including many well-known hot pot catering chain enterprises in China.

Not far from Chongqing Meixiangyuan, Chongqing Muge Food Co., Ltd. is an "old brand" that produces hot pot butter. Since 1984, the company has been engaged in hot pot butter, accounting for 20%-30% of the national market share.

At present, Hechuan has formed the whole industrial chain of chafing dish ingredients, from the cultivation and breeding of chafing dish raw materials to the processing of ingredients, distribution and trading, product research and development, inspection and testing, and consumption experience, and has become an important processing and production base of chafing dish bottom materials, condiments, butter and beef omasum in China.

A "pot" drives many industrial chains

Then, how will the development of hot pot ingredients industry drive the development of upstream and downstream industrial chains?

"Chongqing hot pot’ one pot to cook the world’, behind each ingredient is an industrial chain, closely connected to the fields." According to Peng Guangdong, according to the survey, every 10 billion yuan increase in the processing output value of hot pot ingredients is expected to increase tax revenue by 300 million yuan, drive employment by about 10,000 people and increase agricultural output value by about 3 billion yuan.

For example, Chongqing Meixiangyuan alone needs more than 1,000 kinds of raw materials for agricultural products, which has led to the construction of raw material bases in more than ten provinces and cities; Located in Hechuan, Chongqing Dejia Technology Development Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Chongqing Dejia") is an enterprise engaged in pig slaughtering and canning, with an annual pig slaughtering capacity of 600,000-800,000 heads, ranking second in the country and first in southwest China. At present, it has developed a 3,000-mu mustard tuber base in Hechuan, driving 3,000-6,000 households of mustard tuber and pig breeding.

"Hechuan is a large agricultural region, and the output of pigs, grain and aquatic products ranks first in the city." Peng Guangdong believes that the development of hot pot ingredients industry has obvious effects on promoting Hechuan agriculture "one after another" and boosting rural revitalization.

In promoting the first production, Hechuan will speed up the development of prefabricated vegetables processing industry such as vegetables, ecological fish and meat products according to the needs of the hot pot food industry. For example, after the vegetables are cleaned and simply packaged in the vegetable base, they will be sold in the form of clean vegetables; Another example is the pig industry, which can finely cut all parts of pigs according to the demand of hot pot, so as to increase the added value.

In terms of connecting the three industries, the district will deepen the development of multi-format integration, such as "industry+tourism", and support the construction of Chongqing Hot Pot Museum, Chongqing Hot Pot Culture Experience Museum, hot pot ingredients image display area, and hot pot food street to develop industrial tourism. At the same time, hot pot ingredients enterprises are encouraged to develop tourism products and cultural and creative products, cultivate brands of hot pot ingredients with regional characteristics, and promote the development of leisure agriculture and experience tourism industry in the upstream raw material supply base of hot pot ingredients.

In addition, the hot pot ingredients industry chain can also promote the development of logistics, packaging boxes, foam products, glass products, display transactions, financial settlement and other industries. Take driving cold chain logistics as an example. At present, 143,000 cubic meters of cold storage has been built in Hechuan. In 2021, processing enterprises will drive the annual shipment of logistics to 1 million tons, resulting in logistics settlement expenses of 600 million yuan and logistics tax of 12 million yuan.

Constructing the comprehensive service system of hot pot ingredients industry

"Just over a month since the inauguration of Chongqing Hot Pot Ingredients Industrial Park, more than 20 companies have expressed their intention and demand for settlement." On October 31, Zuo Li, deputy director of Hechuan Industrial Park Management Committee, kept ringing, mostly asking about the enterprises that settled in the hot pot ingredients industrial park.

Zuo Li introduced that Chongqing Hot Pot Ingredients Industrial Park is located in three industrial zones, namely Wuzun, Nanxi and Longshi in Hechuan District, with a planned total land area of 10 square kilometers, forming a spatial layout of "one park and three groups". Among them, Wuzun Group focuses on developing industrial clusters such as scientific and technological research and development, cold chain logistics, central kitchen, prefabricated vegetables, Nanxi Group focuses on developing industrial clusters such as meat processing, hot pot bottom materials, compound condiments, drinks and wines, and Longshi Group focuses on developing industrial clusters such as vegetable processing, rice and fishery products processing, grain and oil processing, and aquatic products. Hechuan also launched 33 policies and measures in 10 aspects to promote the development of the whole industrial chain, involving R&D platform, industrial development fund, warehousing cold chain logistics, import and export support and other aspects.

Innovation is the first driving force to lead development, and the hot pot food industry is no exception.

The reporter saw in the digital workshop of Chongqing Meixiangyuan pepper production that Chili oil was being fried in a huge oil chili pepper tank. The humidity, moisture, pressure and spiciness in the tank were all controlled by computer, and the company could produce at least 50 to 60 tons of Chili oil every day. Zheng Chuanbo told reporters that the company’s hot pot bottom material has also achieved automatic production. In the display counter of Chongqing Dejia, the canned hot pot specially developed for camping is particularly eye-catching. This canned hot pot is also equipped with a stove rack, solid alcohol blocks, stove windshield and so on, which is very convenient …

"We will focus on brands, standards, systems and safety, focusing on customs, logistics, industry, science and technology, and strive to build a comprehensive service system for the construction of hot pot ingredients industry." Zuo Li introduced that the planning and construction of "two institutes, two museums and eight platforms" with the main contents of hot pot food industry research institute, hot pot museum and quality inspection platform can promote the standardization of hot pot food raw material base, intelligent processing and production, the safety of food products and the construction of cold chain logistics base, which will build Chongqing hot pot food industry research institute and Chongqing hot pot food quality inspection center in advance.

"Chongqing hot pot,’ eat’ in Chongqing,’ taste’ in Hechuan." Jiang Xuesong, the head of Hechuan District, said that Hechuan will focus on "the first in the southwest and the first in the country" and build Chongqing hot pot ingredients industrial park with high standards to help Chongqing develop a nationwide influential hot pot ingredients industry chain.

Six years of Putin’s rule in Russia: victory and crisis

The Paper news, who is Putin?

Former US President Bill Clinton once described him as a cold-hearted and trouble-making person.

Obama once described his "listless" behavior as "a boring child sitting at the back of the classroom";

Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and he failed to have a "chemical reaction" and once ridiculed him as a "sensitive tough guy".

……

But until today, there is still a huge gap in the outside world’s cognition of Putin.

Even the most authoritative experts on Russian issues still have many unclear points about Putin’s career path and key time nodes in his resume. In the global media, Putin’s masculine image seems to be everywhere, but little is known about his personal habits and logic, even his close "allies". In 2014, Crimea was merged into Russia, and Putin’s unexpected lightning action once again caused many politicians and observers in the western world to fall into collective reflection-what was overlooked in the past understanding of the leader’s behavior?

On March 18th, when the new presidential election in Russia started, it may be helpful to understand where Putin will lead Russia in the next six years by sorting out and re-evaluating the detailed process of Putin’s response to two major crises during his six years in power, and the decision-making characteristics, belief ambitions, political wisdom, personality characteristics, and hidden crises and limitations behind it.

1.jpg

On September 24th, 2011, then Russian President Dmitry Medvedev announced at the United Russia Party Congress that he proposed that then Prime Minister Vladimir Putin should participate in the 2012 presidential election.

The "recovery strategy" failed.

September 24th, 2011, Luzhniki Gymnasium, Moscow.

A tidal wave of cheers echoed over the stadium.

On the huge screen on the stage, Putin’s close-up quickly replaced the then President Medvedev. Putin, who was under 59 years old, sat in the crowd and enjoyed this "victory" moment.

"I want to say directly: we have reached an agreement on what we will do in the future, which was reached several years ago." Putin tried to smash all kinds of speculations in one sentence.

At that time, rumors about the "Mapp dispute" have been going on for several months. Is Medvedev re-elected, or is former President and then Prime Minister Putin back to the peak of power? The final answer was finally revealed. More than 11,000 party member people gathered in Moscow to witness the release of this "heavy message". This is the largest congress of the Russian ruling party "United Russia Party" in history.

But three months later, two large-scale public demonstrations broke out in Russia, which directly posed a test and impact on Putin.

Andrew Kuchins, a well-known American expert on Russian issues and director of the Russia and Eurasia Program of the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), wrote earlier that during private discussions with Putin and his inner circle, Putin was caught off guard, and "the demonstration was a big shock to Putin personally".

2.jpg

On December 24, 2011, in Moscow, tens of thousands of people protested Putin’s third presidential election.

This is the largest protest in Russia since Putin took office. The mass rally on December 24th was directed at Putin himself and his upcoming 2012 general election. Demonstrators lashed out at the stable structure of Putin’s re-election team, which directly led to the lack of mobility of Russian political elites and weakened the breadth of political participation.

"As far as Putin’s personality is concerned, I doubt that the protests in 2011-2012 will scare him or change his (ruling) plan." Professor Shestopal, an expert in political psychology in the Department of Political Science of Moscow University, recently told The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) that she had conducted a systematic study on the cognitive transformation of Putin in Russian society from 2000 to 2016. "He (Putin) is the kind of person with a strong sense of mission".

"Protests only give him more reason to run for office," Denis Volkov, a sociologist at the Levada Center, an independent Russian polling agency, also told The Paper.

On March 4, 2012, Putin announced that he won the sixth presidential election in Russia and would begin his third presidential term. When he met his supporters in Manesh Square in Moscow, he was emotional and even shed tears.

However, the image of "tough guy" that Putin and his team have been carefully creating for him is obviously facing new challenges. According to the data of Levada Center, an independent Russian polling agency, Putin’s support rate dropped to a low level in 2010, 2011 and 2012.

Before the 2012 general election, even during Medvedev’s administration, Putin’s "sense of existence" was always indispensable: in 2008, the news that he went deep into the virgin forest of the Far East to anesthetize a Siberian tiger made the global media report; In 2009, during his vacation in the Republic of Tuva, the photos of him riding bareback were even more popular around the world. In 2010, Putin personally piloted the Be-200 waterway amphibious plane to fight the fire on the outskirts of Moscow, and the photos were also numerous.

"These super masculine characteristics seem to support the domestic power base and legitimacy of the (Russian) president." Elizabeth Wood, author of The Roots of the Russian-Ukrainian War (2016) and director of the Russian program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, wrote.

Putin’s "tough guy" image continued until the 2018 general election. The picture shows that on January 19, 2018, the Russian Orthodox Church Baptism Festival, Putin was baptized in the ice water of Lake Sheriger.

Putin, who suddenly became acting president of Russia at the turn of the century on December 31, 1999, still has many uncertainties about his career path and specific time sequence. Even there are many conflicting versions about how he was chosen as the successor of former Russian President Yeltsin. Putin officially took office as Russian president in March 2000, which opened the Russian era under his rule.

In the presidential campaign in 2012, Putin still often talked openly about the turbulent years in Russia during Yeltsin’s presidency in the 1990s, which was in sharp contrast to the political and economic stability in Russia in the ten years since he became president in 1999. This "recovery strategy" (which led Russia out of the "chaotic years" of the 1990s-editor’s note) achieved excellent results during Putin’s first and second presidential terms, and also won him a high support rate.

According to Bo Petersson, an expert on Russian issues and a professor of political science at Malmo University in Sweden, this strategy has become outdated. He believes that Putin focused more on the past than the future at that time, "at one time, he gave people a very weak look," he told The Paper a few days ago.

"Recovery (strategy) has not given way to a more far-sighted modernization model," Richard Sakwa Sakwa, a professor at the School of Political Science and International Relations of the University of Kent in the United Kingdom and an internationally renowned expert on Russian issues, has a similar view in an article evaluating Putin’s third presidential term.

Peterson said that the inspiration Putin and his team got from the large-scale protests in 2011-2012 was that "he (Putin) can’t afford to look weak or hesitant".

During the first two terms, Russia’s economic growth reached about 7%, and even after the global financial crisis broke out in 2008-2009, Russia’s economic growth rate remained over 4%(2010-2011). However, when Putin decided to return to the presidency in 2012, despite the high oil price, the signs of Russian economy stagnation were still clearly visible.

Even as a leader who created Russia’s prosperity for ten years and returned to the presidency in 2012, Putin had to re-examine and face the new situation of this country.

5.jpg

As an evergreen tree in politics, Putin’s personal life is rarely known to the outside world. On the evening of June 6, 2013, Putin and his ex-wife lyudmila watched a ballet performance in the Kremlin, which was the first time that they made public appearances together for more than a year. After the performance, the two announced that they had divorced.

"He is certainly conservative, but not extreme."

The most straightforward challenge comes from the people who participated in the protests.

"For the first time in a decade, the protest surpassed the marginalized opposition groups, and young people and the urban middle class formed a vital part. They had no interest in politics before." Vladimir Petukhov, director of the Center for Comprehensive Social Studies of the Institute of Sociology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and Leontiy Byzov, a senior researcher and sociologist at the Center, recently told The Paper that this has sounded the alarm especially for the Russian rulers.

"Cracks are beginning to appear on the wall", and german, a professor of political science and sociology at EUSP in St Petersburg, made a more vivid metaphor.

At that time, some related studies and surveys also showed that most of these participants were relatively wealthy middle class, even upper class, who had benefited greatly from Putin’s ten years in power. Despite their different demands, this is a group of urban people who have received higher education and have professional confidence.

In addition, the past decade has coincided with the unprecedented development and spread of social media technology in Russia. After the scandal broke out in the Russian parliamentary election in December 2011, young urban professionals turned the demonstration initiative initiated on social media into a protest that spread across the streets of major cities across the country.

Sakova, an expert on Russian issues at the University of Kent in the United Kingdom, called this group "the creative class" (the "middle class" in the mouth of Russian commentators). After the unprecedented growth in economic strength and living standards, these people expect the country to achieve better governance and policy innovation.

Sakova summed up the main demands of this group as: eliminating corruption and bureaucracy and realizing new economic growth points.

Keen Russian political observers found that in the months immediately after the 2012 presidential election, the re-elected "new president" seemed to have obvious fatigue, "lacking foresight and needing new ways to exert his previous magic to the public". Peterson, a professor of political science at Malmo University, commented on the state of Russian leaders at that time in an article devoted to Putin’s charisma and legitimacy in 2017.

Peterson told The Paper, "The feeling of great power and its self-confident behavior seem to have a very high degree of support in the constituency. Putin and his team have been carefully practicing this role, which is obviously a response to the decline in support rate in the 2011-2012 (demonstration) incident. "

On May 9, 2012, two days after taking office for the third time, Putin poured tea for Sonia, an 8-year-old girl visiting the Russian Children’s Oncology, Hematology and Immunology Research Center, at the Kremlin in Moscow.

7.jpg

Putin is sometimes "helpless" in front of children. On June 4, 2016, Putin attended the Children’s Day celebration, but the little girl who won Putin’s award kept crying on the stage. Putin tried to comfort but it didn’t help.

In 2013, at the annual meeting of Valdai Discussion Club, a Russian think tank, Putin performed even more incisively and vividly. "We should stop staring at the bad things in our history and sell ourselves short, even our opponents will not condemn us like this," Putin said at the time. "We must be proud of our history."

Since its establishment in 2004, "Valdai" Club has become famous overseas for Putin’s personal "platform" and face-to-face dialogue with scholars around the world. Although Russia has a strong official color, it has gradually become one of the important platforms for Russian leaders to show their internationality. Every year at the annual meeting, prestigious scholars and experts from all over the world gather together to gain insight into Russia’s new strategic trends.

On this occasion, the emphasis on Russia’s glorious national history and traditional values reflects the adjustment of Putin’s strategy in the eyes of most Russian political researchers.

Olga Kristanovaskaya, a female sociologist who has been studying Russian political elites for a long time, had an in-depth observation on this strategy in an interview in 2014. She believes that Putin’s deep-rooted plot of the Russian empire has won the support of most Russian political elites, who are more conservative than Putin and have the appeal of taking a tougher attitude toward the West.

8.jpg

On September 28th, 2015, Putin and Obama clinked glasses at a luncheon hosted by then UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.

"Until recently (2014), Russian political elites have been critical of Putin. Although not known to the public, this criticism requires (him) to take a tougher stance toward the West. " Kristanovaskaya also said in the interview that she was a member of the Russian State Duma and was regarded as one of the most authoritative experts who had in-depth research on the Russian elite.

Jeffrey Mankoff, deputy director of the Russian and Eurasian Program of the Center for International Strategic Studies (CSIS) in the United States, believes that Putin began to push traditional values, targeting another group of people, "not the urban (middle class) class, but people in inland cities, post-industrial cities or rural areas".

Volkov, a Russian sociologist, also agrees that the policy adjustment after the beginning of Putin’s third term is generally not conducive to the middle class, because they are more interested in integration with the West. "They think that doing business needs more competition and protection, I mean in property rights" and "they don’t benefit much from the policy (adjustment)".

"If we observe the actions (taken by the Putin government) and the decisions adopted, since the demonstrations, (policy) has changed." Mankov told The Paper recently.

Shestopal, a professor in the Department of Political Science of Moscow University, holds the opposite attitude. She believes that the demonstrations in 2011-2012 did not affect Putin’s decision on his third term.

"Putin is a man who believes in strong government and traditional values, but he is not a nationalist." She told The Paper, "He is certainly conservative, but not extreme. This will be difficult to change in the future. "

In the book "Putin Biography: An irreplaceable Russian Tough Guy" reprinted in 2015, Fiona Hill, the current special assistant to President Trump of the United States, the senior director of European and Russian affairs of the National Security Council, and Clifford G.Gaddy, a senior researcher at the Brookings Institution, described their efforts to deeply understand the world outlook of Russian leaders:

"Putin’s concept is shaped by multiple influences: the historical background of the Soviet Union and Russia, in which he grew up, worked and lived; Personal interest in Russian history and literature; He studied law at Leningrad State University (now St. Petersburg University); His training in the KGB; His experience in the KGB branch in Dresden, East Germany; Experience in St. Petersburg in the 1990s; The early experience of arriving in Moscow from 1996 to 1999. "

According to her research, Kristanovaskaya, a former member of the Russian State Duma, puts forward that Putin’s belief has two sources: one is the experience of the KGB; The second is the love of East Asian Wushu, which is not limited to action skills, but also includes some philosophical thinking and lifestyle.

9.jpg

Judo is Putin’s favorite sport. On May 8, 2012, in Zvinigorod, Russia, Putin expressed condolences to judo players, and made judo moves with his hands clenched in exchange, hoping to compete with the players.

But volkov, a sociologist at the Levada Center, believes that "we know nothing about Putin’s personal habits." He said that Putin’s image is more the product of TV media, "a very tough and healthy man."

In order to cope with the new changes in Russian society and groups, Medvedev announced a series of reform measures before the end of his presidency, such as direct election of local governors and simplification of registration procedures for political parties. In the early days of Putin’s third presidency, these reform measures were introduced more or less, including that opposition leader Alexei Nabal was allowed to participate in the election of Moscow mayor in September 2013, and won an unprecedented 27% of the votes.

But soon, "I think there was a turning point towards conservatism." German, a professor of politics and sociology at EUSP in St Petersburg, told The Paper that Putin’s priorities in the initial stage of his third term had changed greatly compared with his first and second presidential terms.

Sakova, a famous British expert on Russia, wrote, "Before Putin’s third term, the hymn of the Medvedev era was abandoned."

"Since 2012, the agenda of Russia’s socio-economic modernization (put forward at the turn of the century and advocated during Medvedev’s presidency) is no longer among Putin’s priority policy items, or at most it is listed as the second echelon." German said.

Petuhoff, a sociologist at the Russian Academy of Sciences, believes that the path of building socialism and liberal views, including reconciliation with the West, has been tried and produced negative results, and this path of relying on traditional values and "soft nationalism" has become a natural result. "It is necessary to unite society around something." He told reporters.

"In recent years, it is obvious that the trend of neo-liberal globalization led by elites has led to the deterioration of the material and spiritual life of most residents in Russia," explained Levashev, a sociologist who specializes in the stability and transformation of Russian society. "The lead of national political consciousness has begun to play a role between society and the country."

"pineapple sea" has a vast industrial space.

In recent years, Xuwen pineapple has been popular in the market.One out of every three pineapples in China comes from Xuwen. Its output value has more than tripled in five years, and its export has increased 60 times in three years, making it a real "world pineapple".

Keeping up with the market demand, Guangdong Xuwen not only sells whole fruits, but also develops.Fresh-cut pineapple, make it into explosives. Small pineapples are pressed into the base of the machine, and the steel knife rotates. After 2 seconds, the skin is peeled off, revealing fresh pulp. After packaging, ice cooling and cold chain transportation, it can appear on the shelves of supermarket chains in major cities within 24 hours. Open the bag and eat immediately, the edible rate reaches 100%, which is deeply loved by young consumers.

Fresh-cut pineapple, pineapple crisp, pineapple prefabricated vegetables …All kinds of processed products make the industrial space of "pineapple sea" infinite, and the fruit farmers increase production and income, beaming, and a smiling face of Zhang Fengshou merges into the most beautiful sea.

Five benefits of eating pineapple

Everyone says that we should pay attention to "three eating" when eating fruit, eat in season, eat fresh, and eat from the core producing areas. Fresh pineapple, with high nutritional value, contains protein, raw sugar, sucrose, organic acids, amino acids, dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C … Eating pineapple has the following five benefits:

Step 1 stimulate appetite

Pineapple is rich inAromatic substancesRich aroma can stimulate saliva secretion and increase appetite.

Step 2 help digestion

Pineapple contains a kind of medicine called."pineapple enzyme"The substance canDecompose protein, help digestion,It is also beneficial toEliminate inflammation and edema, promote blood circulation,When eating too much meat and greasy food, it is more appropriate to eat some pineapple.

3. It is beneficial to reduce blood pressure

PineappleThe content of potassium is high and the content of sodium is low.Potassium can offset some of the adverse effects of sodium when it enters the body. Helps patients with hypertension.bring down the blood pressure. In addition, the sweet and sour taste of pineapple can also be used as an ingredient for cooking food for patients with hypertension, reducing the consumption of salt and avoiding the increase of blood pressure.

Step 4 prevent constipation

Pineapple is rich in dietary fiber.Stimulate intestinal peristalsis and prevent constipation.

Step 5 whiten skin

Vitamin C in pineapple is natural.antioxygen, can help the skin become white and delicate.

These three types of people should not eat pineapple.

The irritant ingredients in pineapple will cause irritation to gums and oral mucosa, soPatients with oral inflammation such as oral ulcer, gingivitis and periodontitis.Don’t eat pineapple.

Pineapple contains many acidic substances, such as hyperacidity, gastric ulcer and gastroesophageal reflux.Gastropathy patientEat pineapple carefully, and don’t eat pineapple on an empty stomach.

Bromelain in pineapple is a sensitizing component,People with allergiesIt’s best not to eat pineapple.

By the way

Eating more pineapple will get angry.

Live broadcast of materials science | When molecular design and experimental design have AI blessing: MaXFlow artificial intelligence application is upgraded again.

Lecture topic:When molecular design and experimental design have AI blessing, the new version of MaXFlow3.6.1 material will be released.

Lecture time:Thursday, March 16th, 2023, 15:00.

It takes only 2 seconds to obtain a stable 3D molecular structure?

The generation of three-dimensional conformation of molecules plays a key role in the design of small molecules in materials science, life science and other fields. Traditional methods usually need to predict the distance between atoms, the gradient of distance or the local structure such as twist angle, and then reconstruct its 3D conformation.

In MaXFlow3.6.1, the DMCG component will be launched soon. DMCG is a method to directly predict the atomic scale, that is, to directly generate the three-dimensional coordinates of molecules without considering the intermediate value. This method can adaptively combine bond and atomic information, and refine the generated conformational coordinates through continuous iteration. This method has achieved good performance on both GEOM-QM9 and GEOM-Drugs data sets.

MaXFlow3.6.1 is about to launch the online molecular 3D coordinate generation module DMCG. DMCG can directly predict the three-dimensional coordinates of each atom without providing intermediate values such as bond length and bond angle, and visualize the optimized three-dimensional structure. This method automatically extracts bond and atom information from molecular SMILES, and obtains the lowest energy conformation through iterative optimization. DMCG has achieved excellent performance on both GEOM-QM9 and GEOM-Drugs data sets, and its intrinsic properties such as band gap of the generated conformation are consistent with the real values. This method will provide an effective basis for subsequent property calculation and molecular simulation.

With it, the optimization of reaction conditions will no longer make you "bald"

In the process of preparing new materials, many reaction parameters are usually involved. In order to find the best preparation scheme and obtain the best yield, a lot of experimental verification is often needed, which brings a lot of workload to researchers and is very time-consuming and labor-intensive. How to optimize the experimental design scheme by means of AI, so that researchers can find the best scheme only through a limited number of experiments?

MaXFlow, a molecular simulation and artificial intelligence platform, integrates machine learning algorithm with experimental design (DOE), which helps researchers quickly lock the optimal interval and greatly reduces the number of verification experiments.

In MaXFlow3.6.1, EDBO component will be launched soon, which integrates Bayesian optimization algorithm. Bayesian optimization is a global optimization algorithm based on iterative response surface, which shows excellent performance in the tuning of machine learning model. In recent years, Bayesian optimization has also been applied to the chemical field. Using Bayesian optimization method in experimental design can effectively help optimize process parameters, thus realizing data-driven decision-making.

At this conference, you will also learn about MaXFlow’s rich model building functions.
