According to the data in the White Paper on the Development of New Energy Vehicle Industry in China (2023), the global sales of new energy vehicles reached 10.824 million in 2022, up 61.6% year-on-year. According to the statistics of GGII and other institutions, in 2022, the global ternary cathode materials shipped about 980,000 tons, up 55% year-on-year, of which the global high-nickel cathode materials shipped about 328,000 tons, up 64% year-on-year. The ternary cathode materials market continued the trend of high nickel, and the product iterative upgrade was accelerating.

  Benefiting from the strong demand of downstream battery companies, the accelerated launch trend of high-energy-density models of mainstream European and American car companies, and the company’s continuous improvement of profitability through process progress and supply chain optimization, the performance in 2022 has been significantly improved. During the reporting period, the company achieved an operating income of 30.123 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 193.62%; The net profit attributable to listed companies was 1.353 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 48.54%.

  (1) The market share of Sanyuan ranked first in the world, and the product and customer structure were continuously optimized.

  In 2022, the total sales volume of the company’s high-nickel 8 series and above ternary cathode products was nearly 90,000 tons, up 70.13% year-on-year. Among them, frontier materials such as high nickel, low cobalt and ultra-high nickel have been shipped in thousands of tons. According to the statistics of Xinyi Information, in 2022, the domestic market share of the company’s high-nickel ternary cathode materials was 33%, ranking first in the industry for three consecutive years, maintaining the first market share in the world for two consecutive years, and its leading edge continued to expand. During the reporting period, the company has built a cathode production capacity of 250,000 tons/year, and has four cathode material bases in Ezhou, Hubei, Xiantao, Zunyi, Guizhou and Chungju, South Korea.

  During the reporting period, the company actively expanded its customer base, established cooperative relations with domestic new energy vehicle companies and mainstream car companies in Europe and America, and developed cutting-edge products.

  (II) Merger and acquisition and integrated layout of lithium manganese iron phosphate, with product technology, market development and production and sales scale leading in the industry.

  During the reporting period, the company formally laid out the field of lithium manganese phosphate (LMFP) through the acquisition of Schollander and its subsidiaries. The company’s existing production capacity is 6,200 tons/year, and it is the only enterprise that realizes mass production of lithium manganese iron phosphate. Its products cover 3C digital and power batteries in the sales market, and it is in a leading position in the product development of many well-known battery customers at home and abroad.

  (III) Initiated the launch of a new strategic product-sodium battery cathode material, with comprehensive development capability and mass production progress leading the industry.

  As a new battery material, the product competitiveness of sodium battery cathode material has been significantly improved compared with traditional materials, and it is expected to be widely used in low-end power battery market, energy storage market, 3C and small power market in the future. The company has comprehensively laid out three technical directions: layered oxide, Prussian blue/white and polyanion, and has completed sample submission and verification with dozens of downstream customers. The current capacity of sodium battery cathode materials is about 15,000 tons/year.

  (D) The strategic layout of globalization has been rapidly promoted, and the production capacity and customer development in South Korea have made remarkable progress.

  The company’s Chungju base in South Korea is the first high-nickel anode production project built by China enterprises overseas, and the production capacity in South Korea is obviously scarce.

  On the one hand, China products are subject to a tariff of 25% when exported to the United States, and a tariff of about 6% when exported to Europe; Korean products exported to European and American markets enjoy zero tariff policy.

  On the other hand, according to the Inflation Reduction Act issued by the United States in August 2022, it is planned to invest about $370 billion in the fields of climate and clean energy, and products produced by countries that have signed free trade agreements (FTAs) with the United States, including more than 20 countries such as South Korea and Australia, can receive a certain percentage of subsidies. Compared with the domestic precursor material production base, the precursors produced by Chungju base in South Korea meet the requirements of the Act on qualified key minerals, and can get a tax credit of $3,750 per vehicle for qualified key minerals that meet the Act; Compared with the domestic cathode material production base, the cathode material produced by Chungju base in South Korea does not fall into the prohibitive restrictions stipulated in the bill, and it is expected to get a tax credit of $3,750 per vehicle. Therefore, the capacity layout of Chungju base in South Korea is of strategic significance.

  During the reporting period, the Chungju base in South Korea has built a capacity of 20,000 tons/year of high-nickel cathode materials, and the production line has been verified by mainstream customers in Japan, South Korea, Europe and the United States, with a heavy volume basis. At present, the penetration rate of new energy vehicles in Europe and North America is significantly lower than that in China. The company’s internationalization strategy is rapidly advancing, and its products are mainly used in overseas markets, which has huge room for future development.

  (five) the layout of cutting-edge technology, leading research and development advantages.

  The company’s high-nickel and ultra-high-nickel multi-product sequence research and development technology is leading the industry. The advanced product lithium-rich manganese-based samples have passed the customer certification, and the spinel nickel-manganese has completed the pilot evaluation, and the related products have excellent performance such as capacity, cycle and rate. The quality and energy density of cathode materials for solid-state batteries have been greatly improved, which has been recognized by domestic and foreign solid-state battery customers.

  The layered oxide cathode material for sodium battery has overcome the problems of residual alkali, too high pH value, serious gas production and poor cycle, etc., and has taken the lead in realizing the mass production and finalization of a number of sodium battery cathode materials in the industry, and all technical indicators have been evaluated by different customers and are in the forefront of the industry.

  Lithium manganese iron phosphate material has been certified by many mainstream customers at home and abroad, and it is the first in the world to realize mass production and shipment of thousands of tons. At the same time, a new generation of high ferromanganese ratio products and ferromanganese lithium and ternary blended products have made technological breakthroughs, realizing small-scale mass production, and some customers have entered the stage of batch stability testing.

  (6) The number of patent applications has reached a new high, and the intellectual property protection system is perfect.

  The company has continuously intensified scientific research and innovation, tapped innovative talents, explored new materials and technologies while deepening the advantages of high nickel, and laid out a wide network of intellectual property protection around the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain. In 2022, the company applied for a total of 235 patents, a year-on-year increase of 240%, a record high; The total number of patents granted reached 136, and the "intellectual edition" continued to upgrade. The company has laid out a large number of independent intellectual property rights around products, which can provide a strong guarantee for all products of the company to open up the market.

  (seven) fully implement the "new integration" strategy.

  The "new integration" strategy is an upgraded systematic competition strategy on the basis of traditional integrated competition, and it is an upgrade of business model. During the reporting period, the company’s "new integration" strategy was launched in an all-round way, integrating resources to the greatest extent to create a competitive new energy industry chain.

  The most important role of the "new integration" strategy is to strengthen supply chain management, ensure the stable procurement and cost advantage of upstream raw materials by investing along the industrial chain and establishing strategic partnerships with upstream and downstream, and realize a large number of centralized supply to downstream customers. In 2022, the company invested in Liqin resources through Rongbai Battery Triangle Fund, and signed a "Long Order Purchase Agreement" with Liqin resources, forming a double cooperation of long-term procurement and capital. Establish a long-term supply relationship with () and Weilan New Energy, and carry out in-depth cooperation in technology, products and supply chain in the field of batteries and materials to jointly promote the rapid development of high-nickel batteries in the terminal market.

  In 2022, the company reached a series of strategic cooperation and agreements with multi-level governments such as Hubei Province, Xiantao City and Hanyang District of Wuhan City, aiming at creating a systematic layout of Rongbai Technology in Hubei Province, including multi-dimensional in-depth cooperation such as production base, central China headquarters, new energy technology research institute and equity investment fund.

  4. Sales model

  The company mainly adopts the direct selling mode, and the downstream customers are mostly large and well-known lithium battery manufacturers at home and abroad, which are sold in both domestic and foreign markets. Due to the complex material system of lithium-ion battery, the research and development cycle of the main power lithium battery is long, and the manufacturing process requires high precision control. It is required that cathode material suppliers can provide supporting technical solutions and professional and timely technical support and services under different material systems and control systems to ensure the excellent quality of lithium-ion battery products.

  In order to solve the problems of customers’ wide distribution, rapid development and large scale difference, the company adopts the parallel mode of regional management and large-scale project management in management mode, establishes four production bases in Hubei, Guizhou, Zhejiang and South Korea, and sets up offices in Ningde, Shenzhen and South Korea, so as to maximize the use of market resources, realize the rapid response of product technology, product quality and logistics transportation, and respond to customer needs quickly. In addition, for strategic customers, according to their specific requirements for product technical parameters, customized production is realized to ensure their stable supply and high performance requirements for products.

  (3) the industry situation

  1. The development stage, basic characteristics and main technical threshold of the industry.

  Benefiting from the policy of "peak carbon dioxide emissions, Carbon Neutralization", new energy has developed rapidly around the world. The company’s industry is the cathode material industry of lithium-ion batteries, which belongs to the key material industry in the field of new energy, new materials and new energy vehicles. The explosion of the new energy vehicle market has driven the rapid expansion of the lithium battery industry. As one of the key materials of lithium batteries, the cathode material industry is in a high-speed development stage, and there is a strong demand in the downstream and terminal markets at present and in the future.

  In 2022, the heat of lithium iron phosphate battery and high nickel ternary battery in the installed capacity of global power batteries increased, and lithium manganese phosphate and sodium battery cathode materials began to show their edge. With the characteristics of low cost, strong safety and the growth of energy storage market, Ferrous lithium phosphate’s loading capacity has increased significantly year-on-year; Restricted by the price of lithium and nickel, the increase speed of high nickel permeability is delayed, but the high density energy makes its position as one of the mainstream technologies in the future still stable; Lithium manganese iron phosphate has excellent comprehensive properties and is expected to replace middle and low nickel ternary materials and part of lithium iron. Sodium cathode materials have been initially applied in the fields of energy storage and low-speed power, and are expected to replace Ferrous lithium phosphate and lead-acid batteries in some fields due to their low cost, high safety and excellent low-temperature performance.

  In the long run, the development of power batteries needs to take into account the goals of cost and energy density, and the two technical paths represented by lithium manganese phosphate and high nickel ternary are the most clear. Compared with Ferrous lithium phosphate, lithium manganese phosphate has higher density and energy, and retains the safety and low cost characteristics of lithium iron phosphate batteries. The high nickel route can significantly reduce the material cost and ensure high specific capacity. Thanks to the more competitive cost per watt-hour and the continuous emergence of lithium battery structure innovation technology, as the mainstream choice of high-end models and long-life models in domestic and foreign OEMs, there is no doubt that the market application field of high nickel batteries will expand for a long time.

  At present, there is a high technical threshold in the high nickel ternary cathode material industry, which is mainly reflected in three aspects: development technical barriers, production technical barriers and quality certification barriers. A high threshold of R&D technology requires not only technical modification such as doping and coating, but also calcination in oxygen atmosphere, which puts forward higher and higher requirements for production line design ability, personalized product development ability and technical service ability, as well as more stringent requirements for humidity control of production environment, corrosion resistance of equipment and automation level.

  In addition, high-nickel ternary cathode material is one of the most important raw materials for power batteries, which has a great influence on the core performance and safety performance of power batteries. Considering the product stability and safety, the certification and testing procedures for NCM811, NCA and other products are more complicated for car companies and power battery companies, which require not only long-term product performance testing, but also detailed evaluation of manufacturers’ comprehensive supply capacity, automatic production management level, low cost and quality stability and consistency under mass production.

  2. Analysis of the industry position of the company and its changes.

  During the reporting period, based on the new integration strategy, the company transformed and upgraded to a comprehensive cathode material supplier covering the whole market. While firmly taking the high nickel route, it actively laid out lithium manganese phosphate and sodium battery materials, covering high, medium and low-end power, small power, energy storage and digital market, and became the fastest cathode material company in transformation.

  According to the statistics of Xinyi Information, in 2022, the cumulative output of ternary materials in China was 602,300 tons, up 51.3% year-on-year, and the cumulative output of high-nickel materials (8 series and above) was 269,400 tons, up 76.9% year-on-year, and the permeability reached 44.7%. At the same time, Xinyi information data shows that in 2022, the domestic market share of the company’s high-nickel ternary cathode materials was 33%, ranking first in the industry for three consecutive years, maintaining the first global market share for two consecutive years, and its leading edge continued to expand. During the reporting period, the company built a high-nickel production capacity of 250,000 tons, leading the world in production capacity, realizing the completion and commissioning of the first overseas high-nickel cathode production capacity project in China’s cathode industry, and promoting the globalization of production capacity in China’s cathode industry. The main customers of the company’s high-nickel products have covered Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited, Funeng Technology, Honeycomb Energy, SKon, () and other well-known lithium-ion battery manufacturers at home and abroad. As the main suppliers of high-nickel anodes such as Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited and Funeng Technology, the company’s high-nickel products have been introduced into the international mainstream customer supply system, and have taken the lead in large-scale application in new energy vehicle power batteries worldwide.

  In 2022, the company achieved rapid entry into the lithium manganese phosphate track through the acquisition of Schollander. As the only enterprise in the world that achieved large-scale mass production of lithium manganese phosphate, the company’s existing products are in a leading position in the development and certification of many mainstream customers at home and abroad. The background of high lithium price provides a strategic opportunity for the industrialization of sodium ion batteries. The company has comprehensively laid out three technical directions of layered oxide, Prussian blue/white and polyanion through self-research, and has completed sample submission verification with dozens of downstream customers. The comprehensive development capability and mass production progress are at the leading level in the industry, and the company has an absolute leading edge in the technical route of layered oxide with the fastest commercialization.

  In 2023, the company’s production capacity layout in China and South Korea gradually landed, and the strategic planning research in Europe and the United States was gradually carried out. The company will continue to promote technology iteration and new product development and application, firmly implement the new integration strategy, keep up with industry trends, and consolidate the company’s position as the world’s leading supplier of cathode materials.

  3. The development of new technologies, (), new formats and new models during the reporting period and the future development trend.

  During the reporting period, the new energy vehicle market developed at a high speed, and the performance requirements of power batteries and energy storage batteries continued to improve. As one of the cores of new energy power batteries, cathode materials directly affected the battery’s energy density, cycle, rate, internal resistance and other aspects, and it was a high-cost part of lithium/sodium batteries. The following is the development and future development trend of new technologies during the reporting period:

  1.4680 electrodeless large cylindrical battery

  The 4680 battery, a brand-new cylindrical battery with a diameter of 46 mm and a height of 80 mm, is suitable for mid-to-high-end passenger cars. The battery adopts electrodeless ear, large battery core and dry battery technology to improve work efficiency and safety, and has the advantages of high energy density, low cost, high safety and long life. According to the open market data, the capacity of a single cell of 4680 battery is increased by 5 times, and the power is increased by 6 times. At the vehicle level, the cruising range is increased by 16% and the cost is reduced by 14%. The large-scale process improvement is realized to improve the efficiency and reduce the cost. The core difficulties of this technical route are mainly reflected in welding technology, dry electrode technology and yield. In 2022, through process improvement, Tesla 4680 battery has increased the product yield from the initial 20% to 92%, and the weekly production capacity of 4680 batteries has reached 868,000, breaking through the yield bottleneck. The market expects that 2023 will become its first year of mass production.

  The high safety of 4680 large cylindrical battery adapts to high-density system, and its packaging structure has high thermal safety and mechanical properties, which greatly reduces the risk of high nickel ternary application. At present, NCM811 is the main anode of 4680 battery, and if ultra-high nickel Ni90 is used instead of NCM811 in the future, the cost can be reduced and the efficiency can be improved. With the mass production and production line expansion of 4680 battery, high nickel ternary materials will be the first to benefit. As the first cathode material manufacturer in China to realize mass production of NCM811 series products and apply them to international mainstream terminal car enterprises, the mass production application of 4680 battery will bring broad market opportunities for the company.

  2. Sodium ion battery

  Sodium ion battery is a kind of secondary battery. Compared with Ferrous lithium phosphate lithium ion battery, its cost can be reduced by 30%-40%, and its low temperature performance is excellent. In the low temperature test at -20℃, the capacity retention rate can reach more than 88%, which is much higher than that of Ferrous lithium phosphate lithium ion battery. In the future, it is expected to be widely used in energy storage, low-speed electric vehicles, electric two-wheeled vehicles, electric boats and other fields with low energy density but strong cost sensitivity. In 2022, under the background of high-priced lithium, the key scene of superimposed energy storage broke out, and sodium ion batteries with similar working principles to lithium ion batteries flourished. Demand pull+technical thrust became the key point for the industrialization of sodium ion batteries from 0 to 1.

  At present, the mainstream cathode materials of sodium ion batteries mainly include layered oxides, Prussian analogues, polyanionic compounds and so on. Layered oxide has the advantages of simple preparation method, easy mass production conversion, high energy density and high rate performance, which is the main layout direction of domestic enterprises and is expected to be the first to realize industrialization. Prussian compounds have the advantages of low cost and high specific mass energy density. The main advantages of polyanionic compounds are low cost of raw materials, stable structure and good cycle performance. At present, the cathode material of sodium battery presents the situation of coexistence of multiple routes.

  At present, the company has comprehensively laid out three technical directions in the field of sodium battery cathode materials: layered oxide, Prussian blue/white and polyanion, and has completed the sample submission verification of many downstream customers, and its comprehensive development capability and mass production progress are at the leading level in the industry.

  3. Lithium manganese iron phosphate battery

  Lithium ferromanganese phosphate is an upgraded version of Ferrous lithium phosphate, which is a new type of phosphate cathode material for lithium ion batteries, which is formed by doping a certain proportion of manganese on the basis of Ferrous lithium phosphate. High energy density is the core advantage of LiFePO4 compared with Ferrous lithium phosphate. The energy density is about 15% higher, and it has a higher voltage platform, while retaining the safety and low cost characteristics of LiFePO4 batteries. With the progress of modification technologies such as carbon coating, nanocrystallization and lithium supplementation, the conductivity that used to restrict the development of lithium manganese phosphate has been improved, and the industrialization process has been accelerated. According to market estimates, in 2023, domestic lithium manganese phosphate will be mass-produced stably and applied to the field of electric vehicles on a large scale. Through the acquisition of Schollander, the company achieved mass production of lithium ferromanganese, actively cooperated with downstream customer certification, and the development progress was in the forefront.

  4. Lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials

  Lithium-rich manganese-based materials take cheap manganese as the main transition metal element, and the specific discharge capacity can reach 250mAh/g and above. Compared with LFP, NCM and NCA, lithium-rich manganese-based materials have higher mass and energy density, which is about 1.5 times of the actual capacity of commercial cathode materials at present, and can improve the endurance of power batteries. Its nickel content is only about 30% of ternary materials, and cobalt element is not needed, so the cost is low.

  At present, lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials are in the research and development stage as a whole, and technical problems such as improving rate performance and restraining voltage attenuation during cycle and storage need to be solved. If the technical bottleneck is solved, lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials will become the cathode materials with great potential for the next generation of lithium-ion batteries, and will be widely used in automobile, energy storage, small power, digital and other fields.

  5. Solid-state battery

  The biggest difference between solid-state lithium battery and traditional lithium battery lies in electrolyte. Traditional lithium batteries use a separator+electrolyte with a liquid substance in the middle, while solid-state batteries use solid electrolyte. Compared with traditional lithium batteries, solid-state lithium batteries have better safety and higher energy density.

  At present, the electrolytes of solid-state batteries that have been used or are close to commercial use include polymers, sulfides and oxides. Among them, oxide electrolyte has the best air stability, which is widely used in solid-liquid mixed system solid-state batteries, and its cost is low. The main defect is that the interface contact problem has not been solved perfectly. Oxide electrolyte is more suitable for power batteries. Nowadays, most domestic enterprises choose the technical route of oxide system, and its manufacturing process and modification level are also steadily improving. In addition, sulfide electrolyte shows high rate performance in all-solid-state system by virtue of its ionic conductivity comparable to that of liquid electrolyte, and major battery cells and car companies in Japan, South Korea, Europe and America are actively deploying sulfide all-solid-state battery business. The electrochemical window based on sulfide electrolyte is narrow, and the stability of the interface between electrolyte and anode and cathode is poor, so further improvement is needed to realize industrialization.

  Based on the intrinsic defects of electrolyte, the company has prepared solid electrolyte with high ionic conductivity, developed ternary cathode materials suitable for solid-state batteries, and improved the interface compatibility between ternary cathode and solid electrolyte, which has been highly recognized by downstream customers at home and abroad.

  (IV) Core technologies and R&D progress

  6. Grasp the advantages of industrial layout of core technologies of green economy.

  While mastering the integrated core technology of ternary cathode materials and their precursors, the company actively laid out the business field of recycling waste lithium battery materials, formed a complete closed-loop and competitive advantage of power battery recycling, and actively promoted environmentally friendly production methods. The company has the core technologies of recycling waste materials such as "NiCoMn metal recycling technology" and "Li2CO3 recycling technology", and can recover usable nickel, cobalt, manganese and lithium materials through inorganic acid dissolution, impurity removal, coprecipitation and other methods, with high comprehensive recovery rate, which is at the leading level in the industry. TMR Co., Ltd., a joint venture subsidiary invested by the company, has realized the mature application of lithium battery waste recycling business, which is an important strategic layout for the company to expand into the field of power battery recycling. In addition, the company adopted a number of recycling technologies in the production process of ternary material precursors, which realized the eco-recycling economy of precursor production while avoiding environmental impact.

  7. Competitive advantages of multi-product layout and multi-application scenario coverage.

  The company has realized multi-product layout, not only developing different series of products in ternary cathode, but also laying out the front cathode materials such as lithium manganese phosphate, sodium battery, high-voltage lithium nickel manganate and lithium-rich manganese base, and it is one of the few cathode material manufacturers in the industry with full market coverage. The company can fully cover the two major market demands of power and energy storage through three cathode materials: high nickel ternary, lithium manganese phosphate and sodium electricity. The company’s high-nickel ternary materials are mainly used in the high-end market of new energy vehicles. The series of mixed products of high-nickel ternary and ferromanganese lithium and pure products of ferromanganese lithium will be mainly used in the low-end market and energy storage market of new energy vehicles, and the sodium battery cathode materials can be widely used in the energy storage market. The company’s multi-product layout and multi-application scenario coverage provide a strong guarantee for the company’s performance and the second growth curve.

  8. Unique advantages of M&A integration and integration of industry and finance.

  The company is jointly established by two teams, China and South Korea, which have more than 20 years of successful entrepreneurial experience in the lithium battery industry. It has formed a mature tool system for mergers and acquisitions in sub-sectors and has the ability to integrate, extend and improve the industrial chain for cross-cultural and cross-regional enterprises. In December, 2021, the company acquired Fenggu Energy Saving, the first domestic company to develop and mass-produce ceramic rotary kiln equipment, to improve the matching between process equipment and cathode technology and to raise the manufacturing barriers of cathode materials. In March 2022, the company cooperated with the platform of Xiantao City, Hubei Province, and set up an equity investment fund, focusing on the upstream industry of lithium battery cathode materials and the battery manufacturing, application and recycling industries to achieve a coordinated industrial layout. In July 2022, the company acquired Schollander, a lithium manganese iron phosphate cathode material company, which enriched the company’s product structure and enhanced the company’s comprehensive competitiveness in the field of cathode materials.

  (II) Events that have seriously affected the core competitiveness of the company during the reporting period, impact analysis and countermeasures.

  

  Fourth, risk factors

  (A) Not yet profitable risk

  (2) Risk of sharp decline in performance or loss

  (C) core competitiveness risks

  The key core competitiveness of lithium battery cathode material enterprises lies in product research and development innovation ability and manufacturing technology. The technology of power lithium batteries and cathode materials is updated quickly, and the application market of cathode materials for lithium batteries has extremely strict requirements on product performance and quality. It is very important for the company’s sustainable development to continuously maintain a high-quality technical team, develop and manufacture high value-added products with industrial competitiveness.

  The company attaches great importance to the cultivation and introduction of technical personnel to ensure the effective organization and successful implementation of various R&D work, but it may still face the risk of core technology leakage and technical personnel loss brought about by industry competition in the future. The company has established corresponding confidentiality system and job isolation system for core technologies, strictly supervised proprietary technical data and information, and signed technical confidentiality agreements with relevant managers and technicians. However, if there is a loss of technical personnel, the company is at risk of technology leakage, which will adversely affect the company’s production and operation. At the same time, if there is a breakthrough in the core technology of power batteries and cathode materials in the future, and the company cannot always maintain the industry-leading level of new technology and new product development and continue to make progress, it will have an adverse impact on the company’s market position and core competitiveness.

  (4) Operational risks

  1. Risk of raw material supply and price fluctuation

  The upstream raw materials of ternary cathode materials produced by the company are nickel salt, cobalt salt and lithium salt. Because of the high price of related raw materials, the raw material cost accounts for a high proportion of the total production cost of ternary cathode materials. Although the company has established a relatively complete raw material procurement management system and strategic suppliers cooperation relationship, changes in the macroeconomic situation and unexpected events may still cause great fluctuations in raw material supply and prices, thus having a greater impact on the company’s operation.

  2. Risk of capacity expansion and underutilization

  Based on the expectation of high-speed growth of the industry and the cooperation of downstream customers, during the reporting period, the company rapidly expanded its production capacity, including Hubei Ezhou Phase V, Hubei Xiantao Phase I, Korea Cathode Project Phase I-I and Guizhou Phase I-II. Although the project has been fully and scientifically demonstrated, and the company has mastered the production technology and technology of implementing the project, and at the same time strengthened the work of talent reserve and training, there may still be risks such as changes in the external market environment, poor project construction management, delayed project progress, and insufficient utilization rate of project completion capacity in the process of project implementation, which will adversely affect the company’s operating performance.

  3. Management risks brought by rapid growth

  In recent years, with the accelerated expansion of the company’s production capacity, the transnational multi-base operation involves an increasingly huge organizational structure and a gradual extension of the management chain, and the overall management difficulty of the company is gradually increasing. If the company’s management level cannot meet the needs of the rapid expansion of the company’s scale, and the organizational model and management system are not adjusted and improved in time, the company will face the risk of losses due to improper management control.

  4. Risk of intensified market competition

  During the reporting period, the industrialization trend of high-nickel ternary power battery was obvious, attracting new entrants to invest in the research and development and mass production of high-nickel ternary cathode materials, gradually expanding the industry capacity supply and intensifying market competition. As a leading enterprise of high nickel ternary cathode materials, if the company fails to maintain its technical advantages, it may be affected by factors such as intensified market competition or changes in new technologies, which will have a great adverse impact on its operating performance. At the same time, the market competition of downstream power battery manufacturers is intensified. With the adjustment of subsidy policy for new energy vehicles, the pressure of cost reduction will be transmitted to the upstream cathode material industry of lithium batteries, and the company will face the risk of further intensified market competition.

  5. Other operational risks

  The company has the risk of market demand fluctuation in the new energy automobile industry, the risk of high balance of accounts receivable and bad debts, and the risk of substantial increase in financial expenses, which will have a certain impact on the company’s performance. Some of the company’s businesses are settled in foreign currency, and the changes in the political and economic environment at home and abroad may make the company face the risk of exchange rate fluctuations.

  (V) Financial risks

  During the reporting period, the company expanded the three cathode manufacturing bases in Hubei, Guizhou and South Korea and the high nickel precursor project in Linshan, Zhejiang, with a large investment scale. At the same time, the newly built production capacity and the management measures at the supply chain end have led to an increase in the demand for working capital. During the reporting period, the company’s asset-liability ratio increased, and the cash flow from operating activities was a net outflow. Although the company has established a relatively complete fund management system to strictly control the asset-liability ratio and liquidity risk, changes in the macroeconomic environment, changes in supply and demand in the capital market, changes in interest rates and other factors may cause the company to face liquidity risk and interest rate risk.

  (VI) Industry risks

  The company’s lithium battery ternary cathode material is mainly used in the field of power batteries for new energy vehicles. Changes in policies and technical routes related to the new energy automobile industry may have an important impact on the development of cathode materials for power batteries and lithium batteries.

  1. Risk of market demand fluctuation in the industry

  Despite the rapid growth of new energy vehicle market in recent years, the overall proportion of new energy vehicle production and sales in the automobile industry is still low, and factors such as purchase cost, charging time, endurance and supporting charging facilities will restrict the development of new energy vehicle industry. In the future, if the industrial policy to promote the development of new energy vehicles changes, the construction and promotion of supporting facilities fail to meet the growth of customer demand in time, and the customer’s recognition of new energy vehicle consumption is less than expected, the market demand for new energy vehicles may fluctuate greatly, which will affect the market demand of power lithium battery manufacturers for cathode materials, which will adversely affect the company’s production and operation.

  2. The risk of changes in the technical route of the industry

  There are technical routes such as lithium batteries and fuel batteries in the practical application of power batteries for new energy vehicles, and lithium batteries can be divided into ternary lithium batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries. In recent years, the market share of high-nickel ternary lithium batteries in the field of power batteries for new energy vehicles (especially passenger cars) has shown a rapid upward trend. The company’s main business direction is high-nickel ternary cathode materials. However, if the mainstream technical route of power batteries for new energy vehicles changes unfavorably in the future, the market demand of ternary cathode materials will be affected to some extent. If the company fails to develop and launch new technical materials in time and effectively, it will have a significant adverse impact on the company’s competitive advantage and profitability.

  (VII) Macro-environmental risks

  Sudden public health events or force majeure such as earthquakes and typhoons may affect the continuous operation of the company’s business divisions. The company has formulated a business continuity plan to promote the recovery of key businesses, functions and technologies in a timely and organized manner before, during and after an emergency or destructive event, so as to ensure the sustainable and stable development of the company’s business. However, if the company’s business continuity plan cannot cope with the impact of related emergencies and force majeure, it may have an adverse impact on the company’s business, finance, operating performance and prospects. The company will pay close attention to the development trend of macro-environmental risks and actively reduce their impact on the company’s finances and operations.

  (8) Risks related to depositary receipts

  (9) Other major risks.

  1. Risks related to fundraising projects

  Although the company’s initial public offering and listing of funds to invest in the project has been fully demonstrated by the company, the demonstration is based on the current national industrial policy, industry development trend, changes in customer demand and other conditions. In the actual operation process, there may still be a risk that the market environment will suddenly change or the industry competition will intensify, resulting in the project’s income being less than expected.

  2. Safety production and environmental protection risks

  The company has established a relatively complete safety production management system. With the tightening of regulatory policies and the expansion of the company’s business scale, the pressure on safety and environmental protection is also increasing, and there may be the risk of safety and environmental protection accidents caused by force majeure events such as equipment failure, improper human operation and natural disasters. In addition, a small amount of waste gas, waste water and waste residue will inevitably be produced in the production process of the company’s precursor products, which may have adverse effects on the surrounding environment if it is not handled properly. In the event of a safety and environmental accident, the company will be punished by the relevant government regulatory authorities, ordered to rectify or stop production, and then the normal production and operation of the company will be affected.

  

  V. Main operations during the reporting period

  During the reporting period, faced with challenges such as high raw material prices, the company provided customers with cutting-edge high-energy-density products through comprehensive competitive advantages such as technological innovation and product research and development advantages ahead of the industry, customer collaborative service advantages, engineering equipment development and production line design, maintained the first-Mover advantage and good market reputation in the industry, and promoted the company’s sustainable development strategy.

  During the reporting period, the company achieved an operating income of 30.123 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 193.62%; The net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies was 1.353 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 48.54%; The net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies after deducting non-recurring gains and losses was 1.317 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 62.92%; The net cash outflow from operating activities was 241 million yuan.

VI. The Company’s Discussion and Analysis on the Company’s Future Development

  (A) the industry pattern and trends

  It is imperative to transform the global energy pattern into new energy sources. With the rapid development of new energy vehicles and energy storage, the market predicts that the lithium battery industry will have more than ten times the growth space in the next decade.

  The development of the industry promotes the innovation of battery structure, and the 4680 cylindrical and Kirin batteries further innovate the power battery structure, promoting the wide application of high nickel and ultra-high nickel cathode material technology. Tesla launched 4680 large cylindrical batteries, which can increase the energy of a single battery by 5 times, increase the cruising range by 16%, and reduce the cost by 14%, and the volume is just around the corner. Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited publicly released Kirin battery (CTP3.0), with the highest utilization rate of volume and space reaching 72%. At the same time, the energy density of ternary battery system can be increased to 255Wh/kg, and the vehicle life can be over 1000km. It has been mass-produced, which will further drive the demand for high-nickel and ultra-high-nickel cathode materials.

  The company expects that the cathode materials will develop in two major directions: low cost and high energy density on the premise of meeting high safety. High nickel ternary batteries are mainly used in the high-end market of new energy vehicles. According to statistics of GGII and other institutions, the penetration rate of domestic high-nickel materials (8 series and above) reached 44.7% in 2022, and the ternary market continued the trend of high nickel, while the iterative upgrading of products continued to accelerate. With the maturity of high-nickel technology, the improvement of yield and the scale of material system, the advantages of high energy density are highlighted, the comprehensive cost of batteries is reduced, and the market share of high-nickel batteries will further increase. Products such as lithium manganese phosphate (LMFP) and sodium battery cathode materials have high performance-to-price ratio, and will be applied to low-end power battery market, energy storage market, 3C digital and small power market.

  China’s lithium battery and material enterprises are playing a more and more important role in the global new energy industry chain. According to SNEResearch, in 2022, the global installed capacity of power batteries for new energy vehicles reached 517.9Gwh, up 71.8% year-on-year. According to SNE’s data, in 2022, among the top ten battery suppliers in the world, six companies from China were listed, with a total market share of 60.4%, up by 12 percentage points year-on-year. According to statistics of GGII and other institutions, in 2022, the global ternary cathode materials shipped about 980,000 tons, of which 550,000 tons were shipped from China, accounting for 56% of the world. In 2022, the company’s global ternary cathode market share was about 9%, up 1 percentage point year-on-year, ranking first in the world, and the market share of China enterprises will further increase in the future.

  The overseas market demand is rapidly increasing, and the global layout has become an industry consensus. According to the data of European Automobile Manufacturers Association, in 2022, 30 European countries registered 2.589 million new energy passenger cars, up 14.6% year-on-year; According to the data of the American Automobile Innovation Alliance, in 2022, the sales volume of new energy light vehicles in the United States reached 913,000, a year-on-year increase of 41.1%. With the global emphasis on the new energy industry chain and the deepening of its cultivation, countries have also developed relevant industrial policies to cultivate local enterprises (such as the American IRA Act, etc.), and the layout of production capacity in overseas bases will help enterprises improve their ability to resist risks. The company has completed and put into production 20,000 tons/year high nickel cathode material in Korea, with a total planned production capacity of 100,000 tons/year, serving mainstream batteries and end customers such as Japan, South Korea, Europe and America.

  (II) Company development strategy

  In 2022, the company completed the transformation to a comprehensive supplier of cathode materials covering the whole market. The high-nickel ternary, lithium manganese phosphate and sodium battery series materials will achieve comprehensive coverage of the high-end, low-end power battery market, energy storage market, 3C digital and small power market. The company is positioned as the operator of the lithium battery new energy material industry, focusing on high-nickel cathode materials, and at the same time laying out lithium manganese iron phosphate and sodium battery cathode materials to build a competitive circular industrial chain around the battery triangle. The company focuses on the main business of cathode materials and carries out comprehensive innovation around the main business, including product innovation, process and equipment innovation, supply chain innovation and management innovation, so as to establish industry barriers with competitors; On the other hand, through strategic cooperation and capital cooperation, we can establish business synergy, innovation synergy and strategic synergy with upstream and downstream, so as to improve the efficiency of the whole industrial chain, reduce costs, build a competitive industrial chain and achieve a win-win situation for partners in the industrial chain.

  In 2023, the company will accelerate the strategic layout of globalization, which is not only reflected in the industrial layout, but also in the overall spatial layout. In the future, the company will explore other overseas regions except China and South Korea. From the global market, the penetration rate of domestic new energy vehicles is close to 30% in 2022, which is significantly higher than other markets. With the upgrading of domestic battery technology and consumption level, the market share of high-nickel cathode materials in the domestic middle and high-end market will be further improved. At present, the company’s high-nickel products are sold to overseas terminal markets through major battery customers. In 2022, the penetration rate of new energy vehicles in the European market will exceed 20%, and the penetration rate of new energy vehicles in the US market will be less than 10%. Overseas markets have great room for growth, and the company’s Korean production base is scarce. The company will accelerate the expansion of this base to better serve international customers.

  The company adheres to the development mission of developing new energy industry, improving the living environment of human beings, creating a bright future for the company and employees, and repaying the society, with the vision of establishing a new energy industry cluster with first-class innovation ability and high commercial civilization.

  (3) Business plan

  The new energy industry has maintained rapid growth, and it is expected that there will still be more than ten times the growth space in the future. In 2022, the installed capacity of lithium batteries for new energy vehicles in the world is 517GWh. With the increase of demand for new energy vehicles and the outbreak of energy storage market, it is estimated that the installed capacity of lithium batteries will exceed 6000GWh in 2030, which has more than 10 times the growth space compared with 2022.

  At present, the penetration rate of electrification in Europe and America is low, and there are significant structural development opportunities in overseas markets. In 2022, the penetration rate of new energy vehicles in 30 European countries was 22.9%; The penetration rate of new energy vehicles in America is 6.7%. It is an inevitable trend for European and American countries to transform their energy structure into new energy sources and improve the penetration rate of electric vehicles. At present, the overall European and American markets have greater opportunities and the installed capacity of lithium batteries has increased at a higher rate.

  The competition pattern of cathode material industry will further move towards concentration from dispersion. From 2018 to 2022, the market share of China ternary cathode CR5 increased from 48.2% to 59%. In the future, as the product technology is finalized and large-scale leading enterprises continue to deepen and expand their competitive advantages in the market and products, their share will be further concentrated.

  (1) Upgrade from a high-nickel faucet to a platform-based and group-based comprehensive supplier of cathode materials, and promote comprehensive coverage of market applications.

  In July, 2022, the company held a strategic conference to announce its transformation from a high-nickel leader to a platform and group-based comprehensive supplier of cathode materials. Its products cover high-nickel materials, lithium ferromanganese and sodium battery materials, and its application fields cover high, medium and low-end power, small power, energy storage and digital market, which is the only and fastest-growing cathode material company in the industry.

  In 2023, the company will further maintain the leading edge of 8 series high nickel products, actively expand new customers and increase market share. At the same time, the company will promote the mass production of 9 series ultra-high nickel products with higher energy density, complete the development of high-voltage high-nickel materials and NCA product lines, create a comprehensive high-nickel product sequence, and further enhance the leading edge of products.

  Lithium ferromanganese is the next generation upgraded product of Ferrous lithium phosphate, which has the advantages of higher energy density and lower cost. With the upgrading of product technology and the expansion of production capacity, lithium ferromanganese is expected to replace Ferrous lithium phosphate’s share in the power battery market in the future. Last year, the company shipped nearly 1000 tons of ferromanganese lithium, ranking first in sales. In 2023, the company will further integrate internal and external resources to promote the mass production of lithium ferromanganese products.

  In terms of sodium battery cathode materials, the company has comprehensively laid out three technical directions: layered oxide, Prussian blue/white and polyanion, and has completed sample submission verification with dozens of downstream customers. The comprehensive development capability and mass production progress are at the leading level in the industry. The company has achieved a number of technical breakthroughs, such as low residual alkali, high pressure compaction, long cycle, low gas production and low cost, which have been successfully applied to finalized products. It is expected to achieve mass production in 2023.

  (2) Strengthen the global layout, and accelerate the overseas production capacity and international customers.

  In 2022, the company built a capacity of 20,000 tons/year of high nickel cathode materials in Chungju, South Korea. The South Korean base is the first factory built and put into production by China cathode enterprises overseas, which is a crucial step in the global layout of Rongbai, and truly opens the process of capacity globalization in the anode industry of Rongbai and even China. The base will continue to expand to 100,000 tons, and the production line covers all products of high nickel, ultra-high nickel NCM, NCA and NCMA.

  The completion and commissioning of the Korean base will help Rongbai to better serve overseas customers. Rongbai will rely on the Korean base to be closer to the needs of international customers in technology research and development, manufacturing and business communication. The release of the production capacity of the Korean factory will promote the strategic interaction between Rongbai and Japanese and Korean customers, radiate to the markets of Europe, the United States and Southeast Asia, serve international customers and overseas factories of China customers, and truly embrace customers and serve the world. Overseas production capacity also helps companies reduce supply chain risks, ensure the sustainability of the supply chain, provide diversified products and supply chain solutions, and create value for customers.

  The Korean base will help the company to establish an overseas operation system and realize a comprehensive international transformation. The smooth operation of the Korean base will help Rongbai to further promote the internationalization of its operation, supply chain, platform and team. The company is preparing for the North American office and will expand in Europe in the future.

  (3) Firmly implement the new integration strategy through industrial investment.

  During the reporting period, the company formally laid out the field of ferromanganese lithium through the acquisition of Tianjin Schollander and its subsidiaries. Schollander has a number of stable customers in the electric two-wheeled vehicle market, and has conducted in-depth material research and development cooperation with many well-known battery manufacturers at home and abroad in the four-wheeled power battery market, accumulating a deep customer base. This acquisition will help the company expand the cathode material market, enrich the product structure, and achieve full coverage of "high, medium and low-end" materials. The company will also continue to consolidate the front-end resources through investment mergers and acquisitions, and do a good job in the next generation of technology and technology reserves, and promote the comprehensive competitiveness of phosphate products such as ferromanganese and lithium.

  During the reporting period, the company invested in Liqin resources through Hubei Rongbai Battery Triangle No.1 Equity Investment Fund Partnership (Limited Partnership), and signed a Long Order Purchase Agreement with it. The agreement stipulated that Liqin resources would be the core supplier of nickel-cobalt wet-process intermediate (MHP) and nickel sulfate, and it would steadily supply 20% of the total annual shipments of nickel-cobalt products (MHP or nickel sulfate and cobalt sulfate) to Rongbai Technology every year. At the same time, Liqin resources are preferentially supplied to Rongbai Technology when there is a surplus of 20% battery nickel-cobalt products beyond the long range. The implementation of the long-term purchase agreement will help the company improve its main business operation ability.

  The company will firmly implement the new integration strategy, analyze the best supply chain path through the in-depth grasp of the whole industrial chain, and then establish a long-term strategic cooperative relationship by investing in the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain to create the lowest-cost supply chain and realize stable operation and stable profit.

  The company will continue to focus on the global development progress of nickel, lithium and other resources, select projects with cost advantages, and cooperate in the form of equity participation to increase the acquisition of low-priced preferential resources. On the one hand, it can form effective synergy with existing industries, on the other hand, the company can further share the growth of the whole industry through industrial investment.

  (4) Continue cutting-edge R&D and mass production and improve the intellectual property protection system.

  Layout cutting-edge technology, develop high-nickel cathode materials suitable for all-solid-state batteries, and break through the higher-capacity technology of ultra-high nickel. Continue to increase R&D investment and R&D personnel recruitment to enhance comprehensive technical strength. This year, the company will start the construction of Hubei New Energy Technology Research Institute, build a Korean research institute and build a transnational R&D institution. In terms of intellectual property rights, it is planned to complete more than 200 patent applications and more than 10 PCT patents in 23 years, and promote the implementation of the intellectual property management system.

  (5) deepen the reform of organizational construction in an all-round way and promote the implementation of the "three systems" structure.

  In order to better cooperate with the implementation of the new integration strategy, the company began to carry out platform and group reform in 2022, established and strengthened the enterprise management center, and promoted the overall coordinated operation of the company through the PMO (Project Management Office) process system. In 2023, it will promote the reform of the three organizational systems and build a complete system for the development of cadres and talents. On the basis of optimizing the existing business department system, we will deepen the organizational reform of the three systems of market, R&D and delivery, and establish a professional-oriented business organization and operation mechanism. At the same time, strengthening the construction of cadres, establishing a matching four-level partner incentive mechanism, and creating a competitive talent system by attracting top talents from all over the world will promote the company to further realize the integrated operation of the whole company and achieve the market goals more agile.

Military Sports Forum | Running out of the "acceleration" of military sports

Run out of the "acceleration" of military sports

■ Li Zhenqi Wu Xu

There is a natural connection between soldiers and sports. Military sports can strengthen the physique of officers and men, unite the morale of the army, display the image of soldiers and promote military exchanges.

In recent years, the transformation of military sports construction in the new era has been launched in an all-round way. The fundamental point is to serve the troops and support the construction of combat effectiveness. The basic principle is to highlight military characteristics, strengthen basics, extensiveness and practicality, and strive to improve the contribution rate of military sports to the combat effectiveness of the troops.

Physical education, like moral education, intellectual education and aesthetic education, shoulders the heavy responsibility of shaping and cultivating people. There is a close relationship between sports and troops, which is also an indispensable basic training content in military training and an effective way and means to improve the combat effectiveness of troops. Our army has attached great importance to sports work since the day it was founded, and has shouted the slogan of "training the iron bones and muscles of the workers and peasants and defeating all enemies". Whether in wartime or in peacetime, sports have played a positive role in winning the military struggle and constantly strengthening its own construction for the people’s army.

In the tide of national defense and military reform, the military professional sports force has been reshaped and transformed, and military sports has entered a brand-new development period. Military sports training, which focuses on the mission, moves closer to the combat troops and expands to the future battlefield, has continuously increased its contribution rate to the construction of combat effectiveness of the troops. With the deepening of the theoretical research on combat physical training, the methods and means of combat physical training are constantly updated and iterated. At present, military sports still need to make efforts in the following aspects.

Continuously improve participation. Whether it is military sports training or colorful and diverse mass competitions, there will be no depth without breadth. Only when everyone participates, improves the participation, and allows every officer and soldier to actively participate, can we avoid physical shortcomings, comprehensively consolidate the physical foundation of the troops, and effectively provide strong physical support for carrying out various combat readiness tasks.

Pay attention to expanding educational functions. Improving the endurance, explosiveness, speed, coordination, cold resistance, dizziness resistance and anti-backlash of officers and men is a hard index for organizing military sports training. At the same time, officers and men’s team consciousness, fighting spirit, will quality, healthy mentality and other soft indicators also need to be honed through military physical training and unique sports activities. Only by constantly expanding the practical and actual combat functions of sports activities and gaining a double harvest of "hard power" and "soft power" can we improve the contribution rate of serving combat effectiveness in all directions.

Deepen military attributes. Whether organizing military sports training or carrying out various forms of mass competitions, the ultimate goal is to be able to fight, win battles and win future wars. Running 5 km armed cross-country has "combat capacity" and playing basketball also has "militancy". All sports-related practical activities have military attributes as long as they can serve the purpose of preparing for war, strengthening the physique of officers and men and rallying the morale of the army, which is worth advocating and popularizing.

Fitness is based on building a foundation and strengthening the body to win. The clarion call to achieve the goal of building the army for a hundred years has sounded, and military sports should run out of its own "acceleration" and leap to a new level of the times, contributing its due strength to the great cause of strengthening and rejuvenating the army.

  The National Conference on Housing and Urban-Rural Construction revealed that in 2018, differentiated control policies will be implemented for all kinds of needs to meet the first set of needs, support the improvement of demand, and curb speculative real estate speculation.

  Yan Yuejin, research director of the think tank center of Yiju Research Institute, predicts that the policy of satisfying the first set of just-needed orientation and supporting improved demand may be slightly relaxed, and the identification of the first suite and the second suite, the division of ordinary housing and non-ordinary housing and other aspects will not be ruled out. The possibility of fine-tuning the policy.

  — — Housing provident fund loans will be easier to buy a house.

  Housing accumulation fund can effectively reduce the burden of employees buying houses. According to estimates, a personal housing loan with a quota of 1 million yuan and a term of 20 years can save more than 200,000 yuan in interest expenses than a personal housing loan from a commercial bank. However, some real estate development enterprises refused to use housing provident fund loans to buyers, which seriously damaged the legitimate rights and interests of paid employees.

  To this end, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and other departments recently jointly issued the Notice on Safeguarding the Rights and Interests of Employees’ Housing Provident Fund Loans, requiring real estate development enterprises not to restrict, obstruct or refuse buyers to use housing provident fund loans by raising housing sales prices or reducing price discounts, and not to require buyers to sign a written document voluntarily giving up their housing provident fund loan rights.

  With the implementation of these regulatory measures, it is expected that it will be easier for employees to buy houses with housing provident fund loans, and they will be able to really enjoy the benefits brought by housing provident fund.

Punishing Crime: Using "Group Play" and "Group Image" to Play Suspicious Criminal Investigation Stories.


Original title: "Punishing Crime" uses "group drama" and "group image" to play a living story.

The suspense criminal investigation drama starring and has recently been released on the online platform. The drama has attracted the attention of a large number of netizens with confusing cases, fast-paced reversal and realistic plots.

At the beginning of Punishing Crime, a suspenseful murder case leads to many doubts. With the occurrence of many criminal cases one after another, all the evidence points to the entrenched force: Zhao family. As the truth behind the case is gradually revealed, it constitutes a complete link of Zhao’s criminal gang. The whole investigation process is full of doubts, far-reaching buried lines and difficulties, attracting the audience to dig the truth together.

In the past two years, there have been frequent explosions of criminal investigation dramas. As the same type of Punishment Crime, this time there are many new breakthroughs in the presentation of characters and stories. Johnny, the leading actor, continued the outstanding acting skills of "Action to Break the Ice", with steady output as always, and a familiar driving role, while Yang Shining also performed a hidden and scheming villain image. In particular, the emotions of the characters in the play are complicated, and a wonderful "group play" performance is created around the huge network of people presented by the case. In addition to the main plot, there are many subplots. Each character, whether decent or villain, has his own story or emotional entanglements, each of which is a faction. Many story lines intersect with each other, forming a criminal investigation story with complicated background, and at the same time, it also gives the supporting actors of this play great room to play their acting skills. The old drama bones and the young powerful actors vividly depict their roles, and the complex story lines influence the thinking and actions of the two protagonists, perfectly promoting the development of the plot with "group drama" and presenting "group images" with the development of the plot, thus showing a three-dimensional and hierarchical criminal investigation story.

In terms of story presentation, "Penalty Crime" skillfully combines the two elements of criminal investigation and suspense through plot design and lens editing, and the plot is interlocking, using profound lens language and superb editing techniques to "confuse" the audience’s judgment again and again, thus finally achieving the goal of reversal. These reversals are all based on human design and story logic, which are reasonable and effective in improving the quality of the drama and the audience’s expectations.

In addition, the creators buried a lot of foreshadowing in the story, creating suspense and a sense of crisis, and at the same time, let the audience deeply understand the tragic experience of the victims and the hardships of the investigators, and therefore more deeply realize the difficulties and obstacles in cracking down on illegal crimes and it is imperative. The unity of the people and the investigators makes the audience feel a real sense of security and fairness and justice.

It can be said that "Punishment for Crime" enlivens the story with "group play" and "group image". Undeniably, Penalty for Crime has made a new attempt on the basis of the existing criminal investigation drama, but there are also some regrets in dealing with some details. For example, some character designs are too facetious, which leads to the actor’s performance being "too much" and slightly superficial.


The economic value of domestic kiwifruit is constantly improving by strength and technology

CCTV News:China is a big country producing kiwifruit, and its orchard area and output rank first in the world, but at the same time, its import volume also ranks first in the world. Who is better than imported kiwifruit and domestic kiwifruit? Let’s look at the reporter’s investigation into the front line of origin.

Meixian County, Shaanxi Province is one of the main producing areas of kiwifruit in China. In the kiwifruit industrial park here, the reporter met the person in charge of a local professional cooperative. During more than 20 years of kiwifruit production and processing, Qi Feng witnessed the process of gradually improving the quality of domestic kiwifruit and increasing the degree of commercialization.

       The core of kiwi fruit with red heart is radial, its taste is soft and waxy, and it melts at the entrance. Kiwi fruit juice, a golden fruit, is rich in water and tastes sweet and sour, while ordinary kiwifruit with green heart is constantly improving. Among them, "Xuxiang" and "Cuixiang" are well recognized by the market, and the market price can also be sold to about 8 yuan per catty. Even so, the price gap between domestic kiwifruit and imported kiwifruit is still very wide. The reporter visited and learned that the price of imported fruit is often about 100g, which is above 10 yuan. For most fruit distributors, the market recognition of domestic kiwifruit has been increasing in recent years, which is actually better than imported kiwifruit.

Domestic kiwifruit is "cooked" just right by technology

China’s kiwifruit cultivation has a history of more than 1,300 years, but the industrialization and commercialization development is only 40 years. In recent years, with the continuous breakthrough of planting and preservation technology of kiwifruit industry in China, the economic value of domestic kiwifruit is constantly improving.

CCTV reporter Jin Hezhen:This is a kiwifruit industrial park in Yangling, Shaanxi Province. My location is a standardized planting base of yellow-fleshed kiwifruit. It can be seen that a ridge cultivation method is adopted at the scene, which reserves a wide row spacing and is conducive to drainage. Moreover, we found that each trunk is divided into two vines, and such a horizontal trellis is made on the vines. The advantage of the horizontal trellis is that it can ensure that every kiwi fruit can receive the same degree of water and light, so that the size and quality of the fruit are uniform.

The reporter learned that kiwifruit is a typical post-ripening fruit. When it is harvested, the fruit is hard and can only be eaten after being stored for a long time. When it softens and reaches the edible standard, the shelf life is short, and the loss during transportation will also increase greatly. The new breakthrough of ripening technology in the past two years has enabled the harvested kiwifruit to be stored in different grades, and the ready-to-eat state can be achieved by adjusting the temperature.

Compared with ordinary kiwifruit, the production cost of instant kiwifruit is increased by about 20%, but the sales price can be increased by 30%. With the continuous popularization and commercial application of various technologies, the economic value of kiwifruit industry in China still has more room for improvement.

Wang Jiping, Secretary of Meixian County Party Committee, Baoji City, Shaanxi Province:At present, we are increasing the added value of kiwifruit, making kiwifruit into kiwifruit wine, juice and preserved fruit. In addition, we are also improving the storage capacity, efficiency and quality. More than 4,700 kiwifruit cold storage houses are being improved and restructured to make the quality of kiwifruit better.

The criteria for judging new middle-aged men: whether the "hello" is two or four when answering the phone … The netizen replied with a miserable smile.

Scientifically Respond to Health Crisis with Healthy Lifestyle

First, the "ostrich policy" triggered a health crisis

We can often see such a situation around us: the career is successful, but the health is far away from him; He made money, but his illness made him unable to enjoy life. Health has become an urgent and urgent problem for modern people. In real life, many people adopt the "ostrich policy" for health, that is, out of sight, out of mind or out of mind. Give an example around you. Mr. Wang, a neighbor, just retired, said that he always felt "fooling his face" recently. According to his chief complaint, it is estimated that there may be something wrong with his blood pressure and heart, and he was introduced to the director of internal medicine of a third-class hospital for diagnosis and treatment. But Mr. Wang politely refused: "I never see a doctor. When I see a disease, I will find you." As a result, one morning, Mr. Wang suddenly died of a heart attack, which was really regrettable. The same tragedy happened to Mr. Wang’s 38-year-old daughter soon, which is a typical tragedy caused by the "ostrich policy". Therefore, no one should think that the threat of health is far away from us, even young people should seriously face every health problem. You must know that the golden key to health is in your own hands, one point of care, one point of peace!

Second, the change of health concept

The new life parameter of health is calledhealthy life, including disability-free life, disease-free and chronic life, and active life. People are pursuing a healthy life without disability, autonomy and happiness. To reach this level, we must pay attention to and intervene in the whole process of life, and finally realize healthy aging.

The definition of health given by the World Health Organization is that health is not only the absence of disease or infirmity, but the perfection of all aspects of physical, psychological and social adaptability. This is actually a "three-dimensional" health concept. It can be said that health is to achieve mutual adaptation and dynamic balance between human body and environment. Getting health must start from the details, but how many people can really do it? Too many people need to pay attention to their own health. In recent years, health education, health promotion and health management have gone deeper into the whole health field, communities and enterprises.

Third, chronic disease blowout, alarm bells ringing

According to Hanshu, there was a family whose tenants saw a tall and straight chimney in the kitchen, and a lot of dry firewood was piled up beside the kitchen. The tenant advised the owner to change the chimney into a curved one and move the firewood from the stove to the courtyard, so as to avoid a fire. But the master didn’t listen. A few days later, a fire broke out at home. All the villagers came to help put out the fire, and the fire was finally put out. In order to thank everyone, the host bought wine and killed cows to entertain his neighbors, rewarded them according to their merits and arranged seats, and those who were overwhelmed took seats, but forgot to invite tenants. Someone reminded the host that if you had listened to the tenant’s suggestion earlier, you could have avoided the fire and saved the cost of buying wine and killing cattle. Today, you treat people according to their merits. Why do you only treat the burned-out people who bravely put out the fire as guests, but don’t give any reward to those who propose a sudden start in salary?’ The landlord suddenly woke up and invited the tenants. This is the origin of the idiom "sudden change in salary", which shows the importance of nip in the bud. The same is true for treating diseases and preventing diseases.

In the past two or three decades, cardiovascular diseases and cancer have become the top killers threatening the health of Chinese residents. According to the Report on Nutrition and Chronic Diseases of China Residents (2015), the incidence of cardiovascular diseases in China has increased rapidly, while the incidence of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases has declined after intervention in developed countries. Experts predict that the incidence of coronary heart disease among middle-aged people in China will increase by 26% for men and 19% for women after 10 years. The incidence of stroke is more. It is worth noting that the awareness rate of cardiovascular diseases, treatment and control of Chinese people are seriously lacking, which is very worrying.

Fourth, promote a healthy lifestyle

In 1970s, Canadian scholars put forward that "behavior and lifestyle factors, environmental factors, biological factors and health service factors" are the four major factors affecting health. Among them, unhealthy lifestyle has the greatest impact on health. Fortunately, more and more people have realized the harm of bad lifestyle to health and paid more and more attention to promoting healthy lifestyle in daily life.

Victoria Declaration of 1992 International Heart Health Conferenceput forward"Four cornerstones of health":"Reasonable diet, moderate exercise, smoking cessation and alcohol restriction, mental health."

The Weimar Institute of the United States put forward "eight elements of a healthy life (NEWSTART new starting point)": 1. Nutrition; 2. Exercise; 3. Drinking water; 4. Sunlight; 5. Temperance; 6. Air; 7. Rest; 8. Trust.

The first edition in 2008 and the second edition in 2015 of "China citizens’ health literacy 66".

Twelve tips for keeping healthy at the 9th Global Conference on Health Promotion (Shanghai 2016): 1. Eat healthy; 2. Carry out physical activities in your own way every day; 3. Vaccination; 4. Do not use any form of tobacco products; 5. Avoid or minimize the use of alcohol; 6. Manage stress to promote health; 7. Adopt good personal hygiene practices; 8. Don’t drive fast, don’t drink and drive; 9. Wear a seat belt when driving and a helmet when riding a bicycle; 10. Take safe sex; 11. Check your health regularly; 12. Breastfeeding is the most beneficial for babies.

Policy dividends continue to release 20 measures to accelerate consumption in the second half of the year.

  Expanding domestic demand is organically combined with deepening supply-side structural reform. Optimizing supply based on demand will provide more choices for residents.

  — — — — — — — — — —

  In the last few days of July, a set of consumer credit data annotated China’s consumption situation in the first half of the year: data released by the State Administration of Financial Supervision showed that by the end of June, credit cards, automobiles and other comprehensive consumer loans had increased by more than 710 billion yuan compared with the beginning of the year. According to data released by the central bank, in the first half of the year, personal business loans increased by 2.3 trillion yuan, an increase of 759.3 billion yuan year-on-year. Among them, personal short-term consumer loans increased by 300.9 billion yuan, an increase of 401.9 billion yuan.

  "In the first half of this year, the GDP growth rate reached 5.5%, exceeding the forecast target of around 5% set at the beginning of the year, of which consumption made an important contribution." For example, Li Chunlin, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, said on July 31 that in the first half of the year, the total retail sales of consumer goods in China increased by 8.2% year-on-year, reaching a total of 22.75 trillion, and the automobile sales reached 13.239 million, up by 9.8% year-on-year. "Residents’ willingness to consume has recovered."

  On this day, "Measures on Restoring and Expanding Consumption" (hereinafter referred to as "Measures") was released to the public. Focusing on stabilizing bulk consumption, expanding service consumption, promoting rural consumption, expanding new consumption, improving consumption facilities and optimizing consumption environment, the Measures put forward 20 measures to promote consumption recovery and expansion.

  "Targeted" is the view of many scholars on this 4,000-word measure document. Li Changan, a professor at the National Institute of Opening-up in university of international business and economics, told the reporter of China Youth Daily and China Youth Network that the "Measures" have grasped some key problems and weak links in current consumption, such as focusing on the consumption of bulk commodities such as automobiles and homes, which have a great role in stimulating the economy. "This is also the blocking point, difficulty and key consumption demand in the current consumption recovery process."

  Bai Ming, a member of the Academic Degree Committee of the Ministry of Commerce, noted that in promoting rural consumption, the Measures specifically mentioned "promoting featured products to enter the city". The first two measures were "developing green products to the countryside" and "improving rural e-commerce and express logistics distribution system".

  "Green products going to the countryside and special products entering the city are a two-way interaction and mutual satisfaction of demand." In Bai Ming’s view, promoting consumption should consider the purchasing power of consumers while meeting the demand, and "let farmers have money to spend".

  Policy dividends continue to be released.

  "Promoting consumption" is the key to boosting economy. As early as the end of last year, the Central Economic Work Conference pointed out that restoring and expanding consumption should be given priority. This year’s "Government Work Report" also proposes to give priority to restoring and expanding consumption, increase the income of urban and rural residents through multiple channels, stabilize mass consumption such as automobiles, and promote the recovery of consumption of catering, culture, tourism, sports and other life services.

  A week before the promulgation of the Measures, the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee once again stressed at the meeting to analyze and study the current economic situation and work that we should actively expand domestic demand and give play to the basic role of consumption in stimulating economic growth.

  "Expanding domestic demand", a national strategy put forward in 1998, gradually focused its deployment on the endogenous power of consumption. Wang Yiming, vice chairman of China International Economic Exchange Center and former deputy director of the State Council Development Research Center, analyzed at the 2023 annual meeting of China Development Forum held in the first half of this year that since the strategy of expanding domestic demand was put forward in 1998, China’s policy focus has been mainly on expanding investment demand, and a set of policy frameworks and tools have been formed to guide local governments and enterprises to expand investment, but the means and tools for expanding consumption are relatively limited. "With the narrowing of the space for expanding investment and the decline of marginal efficiency, the role of expanding consumption in sustained and stable economic growth is particularly important."

  How to innovate the policy tools to expand consumption and improve the system and mechanism to expand consumption has become the key to release the potential of consumer demand. In Bai Ming’s view, after the international financial crisis, China emphasized steady growth, expanding domestic demand, adjusting the structure, and giving play to the driving role of domestic demand in the economy. "After more than 10 years of adjustment, China has gradually shifted from a large dependence on exports to a simultaneous effort in the domestic and foreign demand markets."

  Taking the development of "new three kinds" of foreign trade, namely new energy vehicles, lithium-ion batteries and solar cells, as an example, he said that "new three kinds" not only led the export, but also took the lead in domestic sales.

  According to the data of the National Development and Reform Commission, in terms of the production and sales of new energy vehicles, the production and sales of new energy vehicles were 3.788 million and 3.747 million respectively in the first half of the year, up by 42.4% and 44.1% respectively. In terms of market share, the sales of new energy vehicles account for nearly 30% of all automobile sales.

  "After extending the vehicle purchase tax exemption policy for new energy vehicles last year, the consumption of new energy vehicles has increased and expanded significantly, and the policy orientation of this year’s Measures is more clear." In Li Changan’s view, the continuity of this policy will also have a positive impact on the market performance of related products.

  It is understood that the current vehicle purchase tax reduction and exemption policy for new energy vehicles has been extended to the end of 2027.

  Transformation industry meets opportunities.

  "This" Measures "introduced reform measures to promote automobile consumption, including optimizing automobile purchase restriction policies, promoting used car transactions, encouraging trade-in, increasing consumer finance, and increasing the supply of parking spaces. The automotive industry, especially new energy vehicles, has achieved significant benefits. " Zhang Xuezhi, a professor at the School of International Finance of Sun Yat-sen University, told reporters that Chinese auto companies are expected to make breakthroughs in technical strength, market share and brand influence.

  In fact, including automobile enterprises, the Measures "add another fire" to the transformation and upgrading of enterprises in many traditional industrial chains.

  Xu Xingfeng, director of the Department of Market Operation and Consumption Promotion of the Ministry of Commerce, took the home improvement industry as an example, saying that the home put forward by the Ministry of Commerce is a concept of "big household", including household appliances, furniture, home textiles, home improvement and housekeeping, and the market scale is very huge.

  He said that the "Measures on Promoting Household Consumption" jointly issued by the Ministry of Commerce and 12 departments on July 18 put forward related measures. In terms of stabilizing mass consumption, the "Measures" mentioned the promotion of smart home appliances, integrated home appliances, functional furniture and other products to improve the level of intelligent green home.

  "This will not only boost market confidence and promote household consumption, but also help improve consumers’ quality of life and health, which will be of great benefit to promoting the high-quality transformation and upgrading of the household industry." The relevant person in charge of Jiumu Group, a domestic sanitary ware brand, told the reporter that industry estimates show that for every 10% increase in the household penetration rate of smart toilets in China, the market will increase by nearly 100 billion yuan, and the market will increase by 800 billion yuan if the household penetration rate in China is increased to 80%. "The overall market volume of China Digital Smart Sanitary Ware will reach trillions, and the market potential is huge."

  Many transformation enterprises, including Jiumu Group, take intelligence and greening as the direction of product upgrading and lay out the future. This is also the key word of the Measures.

  In terms of expanding new consumption, the "Measures" specifically mentioned the promotion of green consumption, clearly improving the production and promotion mechanism of green low-carbon products, and promoting the green renewal and quality upgrading of residents’ durable consumer goods. Improve the energy-saving and low-carbon and green manufacturing standard system, improve the certification and labeling system of green products, and encourage the development of group standards and enterprise standards in advance.

  "Promoting consumption is not only a discount for businesses"

  Driven by the policy, more products and services enrich people’s shopping carts, but the money in the wallet is often waiting for a more cost-effective opportunity.

  In Bai Ming’s view, promoting consumption is not only a discount for merchants, but also a reliable product. "It must not only meet the purchase demand, but also reflect environmental protection and high quality." He further explained that promoting market consumption is a systematic project and a chain, which includes consumption capacity, consumption hotspots, consumption desire, consumption environment, etc., and requires the cooperation of many departments.

  It can also be seen from the implementation of the Measures that the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the General Administration of Market Supervision and other ministries and commissions will continue to issue follow-up supporting measures. "Each of us is a consumer, and improving the consumption environment is an important support for restoring and expanding consumption." Kuang Xu, director of the Law Enforcement Inspection Bureau of the General Administration of Market Supervision, said that daring to consume and willing to consume are closely related to market supervision. In the future, the General Administration of Market Supervision will start from three aspects: building a system, keeping the bottom line and raising the line, and strive to create a secure consumption environment and promote the quality and expansion of consumption.

  It is worth noting that behind the upgrading and expansion of consumption is the concern of the government and enterprises for new demand.

  Ma Yiliang, chief statistician of china tourism academy, noticed that a major change in the tourism market this year is that some local governments pay attention to stimulating tourism consumption from the demand side. "Unlike the previous behaviors of focusing on supply such as building scenic spots and creating brands, more and more local governments are looking for innovations directly on the demand side, such as holding activities such as village BA to attract tourists, making head scenic spots free and managing price increases."

  In Ma Yiliang’s view, on the one hand, individual businesses often don’t have enough ability to hold activities independently, on the other hand, it also meets the current consumer demand of tourists, that is, paying more attention to what activities or travel can bring.

  As a key area of service consumption, cultural tourism consumption also occupies a certain space in the Measures. Zhang Xuezhi noted that the Measures clearly and comprehensively implemented the paid vacation system, encouraged off-peak vacations, flexible work and rest, and promoted holiday consumption. On the basis of ensuring tourists’ right to choose independently, the Measures support different regional scenic spots to jointly implement the joint ticket mode, and encourage scenic spots to implement the one-ticket, multiple-time and multi-day use system in combination with the actual situation to better meet the diversified needs of tourists.

  "Expanding domestic demand is organically combined with deepening supply-side structural reform." In Zhang Xuezhi’s view, optimizing supply based on demand will provide more choices for residents. (Zhongqing Daily, Zhongqing.com reporter Zhu Caiyun)

Ministry of Industry and Information Technology: Accelerate the innovation of technology industry and promote breakthroughs in core technologies such as 6G, optical communication and quantum communica

  Cctv newsAt 15: 00 on April 20th, the State Council Press Office held a press conference to introduce the development of industry and informatization in the first quarter of 2023 and answer questions from reporters.

  Zhao Zhiguo, chief engineer and spokesperson of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that in the first quarter, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology conscientiously implemented the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, adhered to the general tone of striving for progress while maintaining stability, and pushed the high-quality development of the information and communication industry to a new level.

  First, the power is more sufficient and the pace of industry development is steady. Emerging businesses grew at a high speed, and the revenues from Internet data centers, cloud computing, Internet of Things and other businesses increased by 24.5% year-on-year, driving the telecom business revenue to increase by 4.8 percentage points, gradually becoming a new power source for industry development. The revenue of telecom business increased steadily, with a total of 425.2 billion yuan in the first quarter, up by 7.7% year-on-year. The total telecom business increased by 18% year-on-year, and the overall operation of the industry improved.

  Second, the foundation is stronger and the network capacity continues to improve. The network foundation is becoming more and more complete. By the end of March, China had built more than 2.64 million 5G base stations, and the number of ports with gigabit network service capacity exceeded 17.93 million, realizing "Gigabit in the city" and "5G in the county". The scale of computing power has grown rapidly. The computing power supply system optimized by steps has been initially established, and the computing power scale ranks second in the world, with an annual growth rate of nearly 30%. The development of IPv6 continues to deepen. From "usable" to "easy to use" of IPv6, mobile network IPv6 traffic surpassed IPv4 traffic for the first time, accounting for more than 50%, which ushered in the Internet era dominated by IPv6.

  Third, the application is wider, and the popularization of high-speed services is accelerated. The scale of connectivity continues to grow. By the end of March, there were 620 million users of 5G mobile phones, over 100 million users of Gigabit optical networks and 1.984 billion users of mobile Internet of Things in China, and the proportion of "things" connectivity increased to 53.8%. The foundation of the Internet of Everything was steadily consolidated. Converged applications have gone deeper and deeper. 5G applications have covered 52 national economic categories, and the number of "double Gigabit" network application cases of 5G and Gigabit optical networks in China has exceeded 50,000. The mobile Internet of Things has achieved large-scale applications in digital city construction, smart transportation, mobile payment and other fields.

  Fourth, the experience is better, and user services are shared. The universal service of telecommunications has been promoted in depth, the network coverage level in remote rural areas has been continuously improved, and the 5G network has been expanded to rural areas, which strongly supports the rural revitalization strategy. The user’s sense of acquisition has been continuously improved. In the first quarter, the download rate of China’s mobile and fixed broadband increased by 59.9% and 15.1% respectively compared with the same period of last year, and the mobile data traffic tariff continued to decline. Information accessibility has been continuously enhanced, and the aging transformation of Internet applications has been further promoted, guiding a number of outstanding transformation cases of mainstream websites and mobile apps to be popularized and applied nationwide.

  In the next step, we will focus on three aspects, make the information and communication industry better and stronger, and provide solid support for promoting high-quality economic and social development.

  The first is to tamp the base of digital facilities. We will study and introduce policies and measures to promote the coordinated development of new information infrastructure construction, promote the "broadband frontier", the "light-chasing action" of Gigabit optical networks, the strong foundation construction of cloud networks in small and medium-sized cities, and the high-quality development of mobile Internet of Things, and promote the construction of new infrastructure in an integrated manner.

  The second is to accelerate the innovation of technology industry. Promote breakthroughs in key core technologies such as 6G, optical communication and quantum communication, and increase research and development of cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain and digital twinning. Overcome a number of "stuck neck" key areas and improve the resilience and safety level of the industrial chain supply chain.

  The third is to deepen the application of industry integration. Vigorously promote the integration and application of new generation information and communication technologies such as 5G and Gigabit optical networks in vertical industries, information consumption, social livelihood and other fields, promote the scale application of industrial Internet, focus on key areas to form demonstration benchmarks for innovative applications, and help the digital transformation of industries.
