Show Lo was exposed to cheating! The whole collapse of affectionate people in film and television works?

Grace Chow issued a document announcing the breakup, pointing out that the man was unfaithful to his feelings.


1905 movie network news On April 23rd, Grace Chow posted a long article on the social platform announcing that she had broken up with her boyfriend Show Lo, who had been in love for nine years, and said that the reason for breaking up was that she found that she had cheated on her more than once when looking at her mobile phone. Grace Chow said that Show Lo "dates different girls almost every day" and "has a long-term unfair relationship with her female artists and makeup artists", and all kinds of performances made her completely desperate for this relationship, so she resolutely chose to cut off her love affair.


After Grace Chow posted the article, the topic of the two immediately set off a hot search list. Many netizens came to the comment area to "uphold justice" for the woman, and cursed Show Lo "love rat", saying that her former affectionate person in film and television dramas had completely collapsed.


Show Lo, who made her debut as a singer in her early years, was once known to the audience because of her participation in the popular Taiwan Province idol drama. In recent years, she has gained popularity because of the variety "Extreme Challenge", movies and so on.


Show Lo often shows people with affectionate male actors and funny positive roles in his film and television works. Now when looking back at these works, it is inevitable that there are some ironies. How many of his works have you seen?

In 2006, Show Lo cooperated with Big S in the TV series "Love Around the Corner", in which he played the role of Qin Lang, a warm and kind dream-chasing teenager, who took good care of the hostess and was once regarded as the "Bai Yueguang" male host in Taiwan Province idol drama.

In 2009, a film "Shanghai Sweetheart" deeply imprinted "Mushroom Head Lin Dalang" in the audience’s mind, and Show Lo created the image of a simple and shy boy.

In 2013, Show Lo played "kong xu gong zi" in Stephen Chow’s Journey to the West, and the humorous conversation between him and his maid and the phrase "emptiness or kidney deficiency" also became the classic memory points of the film.

In 2016, Show Lo once again participated in the movie "The Mermaid" by Xingye, which played the role of "Myna", an octopus with unrequited love for a mermaid (Jelly Lin), and was a think tank among mermaids.

In the same year, the variety show "Extreme Challenge" was launched in the first season. As a member of the "Top Men’s Gang", Show Lo was widely loved by the audience with the role of "Beauty Luo". So far, the program has been recorded into the sixth season, which has brought great popularity and voice to Show Lo. Since then, he has also appeared in the film version of Extreme Challenge.

In 2017, Show Lo co-starred with Jackie Chan and Nana Ou-yang in the film, which played a high-tech criminal with a mysterious identity.

This breakup event may reshuffle the audience’s cognition of Show Lo’s "deep feelings for people". Many netizens shouted "Three Views Subversion" and "Unbelievable" after reading Grace Chow’s long article. Show Lo himself has not yet made a formal response to the incident.

Liu Liguo’s trench oil rivers and lakes

A once promising young man, after starting a business for more than ten years, became the culprit of the largest trench oil case in China.

  Caixin New Century reporter Xie Haitao

  Liu Liguo, dressed in prison uniform, still has a refined air. Born in 1977, he has a clean and fair face, speaks slowly and has a kind face. From time to time, he touches his delicate black-rimmed glasses with his hands.

  On December 12, 2012, Liu Liguo appeared in court again for trial. In the eyes of the public in China, he seems to be a villain-he is the main culprit in the manufacturing of the largest gutter oil case in China so far.

  According to the indictment of the prosecution in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, since December 2007, Liu Liguo has been processing and refining kitchen waste oil into non-edible oil that still contains toxic and harmful substances, knowing that others will pass it off as soybean oil for sale, with sales reaching more than 99.2 million yuan.

  According to the calculation of 8,000 yuan per ton, the non-edible oil produced by these waste oils is about 12,000 tons. Assuming that all of them flow to the dining table, it is enough for 600,000 Chinese to eat for one year.

  In August, 2012, the trial of the case once shocked the public all over the country. This case is known as the first case of the whole process of extra-large waste oil in China, involving 58 enterprises, and many well-known food brands were exposed to the use of waste oil, including five listed companies. Henan Jiaozuo Health Yuan Biological Products Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Jiaozuo Health Yuan), a subsidiary of Health Yuan Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. (600380.SH, hereinafter referred to as Health Yuan Company), is the largest terminal buyer of waste oil in this case.

  The more fundamental reason why this case shocked the whole country is that this case, together with more than 10 cases of gutter oil that were subsequently tried in various provinces, revealed that gutter oil was put on the table on a large scale in China, and it has changed from suspicion to reality.

  On July 4th, 2011, a campaign of encirclement and suppression of waste oil, which was supervised by the Ministry of Public Security and originated in Zhejiang, started with Jinan wesen Energy Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Green Company) of Liu Liguo, and then swept across Shandong and Henan. The official said that it destroyed a black industrial chain of waste oil, which integrates fishing, crude refining, reselling, deep processing, wholesale and retail.

  In China, gutter oil has been regarded as a scourge in recent ten years, and it is condemned by many people. In fact, not all cooking waste oil is guilty. In essence, cooking waste oil is also a kind of resource, which has legal uses for manufacturing biodiesel and feed oil.

  Pingyin County, Shandong Province, where Liu Liguo was engaged in the processing of waste oil, was once the place where the sage Confucius came to give lectures, leaving behind the "apricot altar"; In recent ten years, the production of waste oil has become very popular, and there are many "enterprises", which are rarely investigated. Liu Liguo’s enterprise is only a latecomer, and even until he is caught, his waste oil production scale is not the largest.

  More than a decade ago, Liu Liguo, who had the idea of "wanting all his brothers and sisters in the family to live a good life", was embarrassed and repeatedly hit a wall. A story about a neighboring village getting rich by cooking oil affected his life path. After he was involved in gutter oil in 2003, he tried to make biodiesel and feed oil from gutter oil for several years, but he was once heavily in debt. According to the prosecution’s allegations, since 2007, he began to use waste oil to make "red oil" on the table.

  People with insight pointed out that the unique external environment of waste oil in Pingyin County and Linyi City, as well as Liu Liguo’s waste oil road, are worthy of reflection by food supervision departments and governments at all levels. At this level, Liu Liguo’s case is only the starting point for eradicating waste oil from the table.

  In pursuit of Liu Liguo’s life track, he was not an evil person. The evil flower of gutter oil did not break ground in this land of roses that suffered Confucianism in an instant. Everything happens for a reason. Hannah Arendt, a sage, has a theory of "ordinary evil". In short, an ordinary person, who is in a specific environment and becomes a member of a running machine, is also easy to do evil things because he chooses to "obey".

  What about Liu Liguo to waste oil? The truth doesn’t seem clear. During the trial, seven defendants, including Liu Liguo and his brother Liu Lihai, his eldest brother-in-law Yu Shuangying and his second brother-in-law Lu Jun, collectively retracted their confessions in court, and lawyers also pleaded not guilty.

  Analyzing the case outside the court and the turbulent public opinion outside the court seems to reveal that gutter oil is in past lives, China, restore a complex social ecology of gutter oil rivers and lakes, face the misunderstanding of policies in related fields, and even the vacuum of supervision by functional departments, which may provide reference for food safety in China.

  Liu Liguo’s prequel

  "If the benefits are good, the aluminum factory will not collapse, and he will not reach this point." In the family courtyard of Pingyin Aluminum Factory, a retired worker talked about Liu Liguo with emotion.

  Pingyin is a suburban county in Jinan City, Shandong Province. Pingyin Aluminum Factory, located in the suburb of the county, is 1 km south, which is Helou Village in Kongcun Town. Kongcun town was named after the ruins of Confucius’ lectures in the Spring and Autumn Period. In 1977, Liu Liguo was born here, with three sisters and one brother, and his father had been a village party secretary for many years. More than ten years ago, he and his two sisters were admitted to school and jumped out of the farm gate, which was envied by the villagers.

  In the impression of Liu’s third sister, although Liu Liguo is the youngest in the family, he has been sensible and filial to the elderly since childhood. When he was in primary school, he cooked for himself since the third grade in order not to let his mother get up early every day. He is also a quick-witted and diligent person with great energy. For example, when others play poker and games in their spare time, he looks up information and reads books when he is free.

  After graduating from high school, he was admitted to Shandong Salt Industry School (later renamed Shandong Light Industry Engineering School), a national key secondary vocational school built in Qingdao, known as the "cradle of golden blue collar". Four years of secondary school study, beautiful and economically developed Qingdao, broadened his horizons. After graduating and returning to Pingyin in 1997, he once wanted to do business and open an electronic goods store, but under the influence of his parents, he entered Pingyin Aluminum Factory.

  Shandong Pingyin Aluminum Factory, located at the foot of Wolong Mountain, the remaining vein of Mount Tai, is an old state-owned enterprise founded in 1966, which belongs to Shandong Metallurgical Industry Corporation. In the 1980s, it was once brilliant, and it was tied with national cotton, bearing bush and standard parts as the four traditional Pingyin factories, which was a place of envy for the surrounding rural youth.

  Liujia has an indissoluble bond with Pingyin Aluminum Factory. Not only Liu Liguo, but also the main helper in the waste oil processing plant in the future, and those who ended up behind bars with him, have worked in Pingyin Aluminum Plant for a long time.

  In 1988, after the first phase expansion of Pingyin Aluminum Factory, Liu Liguo’s brother Liu Lihai entered the aluminum factory. In 1994, the second phase of expansion and recruitment, Liu Liguo’s eldest brother-in-law Yu Shuangying entered the factory. In 1989, Lu Jun, who later became Liu Liguo’s second brother-in-law, was assigned to work in an aluminum factory. Lu Jun, who graduated from Northeastern University, worked as the secretary of the Youth League Committee of the factory, the secretary of the Party branch of the electrolytic workshop, and the vice chairman of the factory’s trade union. He has a good reputation among the old workers. "He is enthusiastic and serious, has a good popularity, and has hosted weddings for many young people."

  When Liu Liguo entered the factory in 1997, the scenery of Pingyin Aluminum Factory was no longer there. According to a master’s thesis entitled "Research on the Development Strategy of Pingyin Aluminum Factory" published by Shandong University, from 1997 to 2000, although the aluminum factory contracted and concentrated on aluminum management, the debt ratio rose to 93%.

  Liu Liguo was assigned as a technician in the aluminum profile workshop, with a salary of several hundred yuan in January. Here, he experienced the joy of getting married and the pain of losing his father. He left the impression on his colleagues that his mind was flexible and he solved many technical problems.

  After 2000, Pingyin Aluminum Factory went from bad to worse, and the staff turnover was serious. Liu Liguo is also thinking about the way out. In the impression of Third Sister, my younger brother has a high spirit and has his own ideas about life. He is the youngest of the brothers and sisters, but he is also the most considered by others. "He wants his brothers and sisters to live a good life."

  At first, he opened a small supermarket next to the aluminum factory. When the young couple go to work, the supermarket is looked after by their mother. The supermarket has been open for two years and it doesn’t make money.

  The benefits of the aluminum factory are still declining, and wages cannot be paid. In May and June 2003, Liu Liguo resigned. Borrowing money from relatives and friends, he started Pingyin Changshun Oil Processing Factory.

  The right path is difficult to travel.

  Today, there is a small courtyard with a yellow wall on Wanfang Road, where the family courtyard of the aluminum factory is located. The dark red iron gate is rusty, with illegible rental advertisements on it, and the small yard is a row of factories with doors and windows open. The yard like this small workshop is where Liu Liguo started.

  In 2003, Liu Liguo built a humble factory in a rented small courtyard, hired three or four people and started an oil business. The yard is only thirty or forty meters away from the aluminum factory, and his brothers-in-law came to help after work from the aluminum factory. My brother Liu Lihai was diagnosed with femoral head necrosis this year, and he often took his brother everywhere to seek medical treatment.

  In the impression of Lao Li, a former colleague of the aluminum factory, at first, Liu Liguo was doing good oil. "At that time, it was to process lard, that is, to remove the color and smell of lard, and then sell it, which is for human consumption." Later, Liu Liguo said in an interview with China Newsweek at the detention center. Lao Li said that Liu Liguo also used raw materials for killing chickens in chicken farms and made chicken oil.

  In the eyes of his family, when Liu Liguo started his business, it was very bitter. Many things were out of reach, and he tried many times and failed. Around 2004, he also purchased cottonseed oil and palm oil and processed them into feed oil to sell. The oil color is like soy sauce, but it can only be processed for two or three tons a day. In the first two years of going to sea, Liu Liguo lost money because of his inexperience. He borrowed money from relatives and friends one after another, and once owed nearly 2 million yuan. In 2004, Sanjie also helped him borrow money.

  "No matter how much you lose, you can only go forward." Liu Liguo later said in an interview with China Newsweek. In the third sister’s view, he is a man who can carry on and doesn’t complain to others easily. Sometimes it is very fragile, and when it comes to the pain of starting a business, it will also shed tears.

  In 2005, it was a turning point for Liu Liguo. At that time, the biodiesel industry in China was still in its infancy, and there was no unified national standard. Liu Liguo, who has a flexible mind, is optimistic about the prospect of biodiesel. This year, he renamed the factory Jinan Zhongxing Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (Fatty Acid Methyl Ester) Factory, and prepared to put into production biodiesel.

  In western developed countries, the waste oil from fried food, animal waste oil and restaurant gutter oil is generally regarded as a resource, which can be recycled into biodiesel and animal feed oil. In China, this road is also regarded as a formal outlet for waste oil.

  According to Jiefang Daily, in 2005, the raw material of 1 ton of gutter oil in China was still 800 yuan, and by 2006, it had risen to 3,000 yuan/ton. The economic benefits of biodiesel are also considerable. The direct cost of producing 1 ton of biodiesel is about 3,500 yuan, and the market price at that time was about 5,000 yuan per ton.

  According to China News Weekly, Liu Liguo first spent 100,000 yuan to buy the patented technology of "Pilot Test of Lipid Vegetable Oil Fuel" from the University of Science and Technology of China. After purchasing equipment and technology, the effect was not satisfactory. Liu Liguo sought advice from Ning Shoujian, an expert member of the National Biodiesel Industry Cooperation Group, and finally formed his own technology through joint cooperation and repeated experiments with a research institute in Zhengzhou.

  Liu Liguo mainly bought waste oil from Beijing as raw material, and the processing technology was only two steps. At that time, there was no standard for biodiesel in China, as long as customers agreed. "It was at this time that I had a deeper understanding of waste oil." Liu Liguo said.

  At that time, diesel was in short supply, and many gas stations added biodiesel to diesel. Liu Liguo’s business grew day by day, with a monthly net profit of 200,000 to 300,000 yuan at the highest. By 2007, he had almost paid off his debts. During this period, my brother Liu Lihai was on sick leave from the aluminum factory. In the first half of 2006, he also came to the factory to help.

  The good times didn’t last long. With the decline of diesel price, the market demand for biodiesel decreased. "There was no market later, and PetroChina and Sinopec didn’t want it. Who else could they sell it to?" In his confession, he said that biodiesel was produced for eight or nine months, and the products were mainly sold to the petrochemical company in Tai ‘an. Later, due to quality problems, the company did not want the goods.

  Liu Liguo’s experience reflects the embarrassment of biodiesel industry. China consumes 90 million tons of diesel oil every year, so biodiesel has great room for development in theory. However, the reality is that many biodiesel enterprises have no suitable development path. The supply of raw materials is one of the constraints, while Sinopec and PetroChina monopolize the diesel supply market, making it difficult for private enterprises to enter the state-owned sales channels, which is also one of the difficulties.

  After biodiesel was frustrated, in 2007, Liu Liguo transformed again and went further and further on the road of waste oil.

  Waste oil "base"

  In 2003, although Liu Liguo was involved in the processing of animal waste oil, he didn’t know much about the waste oil business at this time. Pingyin country has a tradition of running oil mills, but Liu’s family has never set foot in it before. In the eyes of his family, Liu Liguo’s involvement in oils and fats was mainly influenced by Zhu Chuanfeng’s brothers in Guoliugou village.

  At that time, in Guoliugou Village, a few kilometers southeast of Confucius Village, Zhujia’s oil refining business had been going on for three years. According to insiders, the gutter oil business in Pingyin County was the earliest in Zhujia, and other places followed suit. In the second half of 2011, shortly after Liu Liguo was arrested, the refinery of Zhujia brothers was taken down by Jinan police. In public media reports, the Zhujia brothers’ gutter oil case is called the largest gutter oil case in Shandong Province.

  Zhu Chuanfeng was born in poverty, his father was a factory salesman, his mother was a farmer, and his four brothers were born to kill pigs. Later, they turned to a flour mill and a grain and oil wholesale store. In 1999, Zhu Chuanfeng brought equipment from the south and began to build an oil plant.

  Police in Jinan said that at that time, Zhujiajian had built the first production line to produce waste oil from hogwash fat. Jinan police later claimed that Zhujia bought kitchen waste oil from Liaocheng and Tai ‘an in Shandong, Beijing, Sichuan, Inner Mongolia and other places, produced defatted oil and sold it to Henan, Shandong, Anhui, Liaoning and other places.

  On March 3, 2009, after several years of operation, Zhu’s brother and brother in Guoliugou Village registered and established Jinan Fada Oil Industry Co., Ltd., whose registered business scope is biodiesel processing and sales.

  The Zhujiajian brothers’ industry is getting bigger and bigger. A villager described its prosperity: the big trailer transporting waste oil raw materials from other places is 20 to 30 meters long, full of diesel barrels, and can have at most five or six cars a day. It comes down from the nearby Xiaozhi Expressway intersection, travels 10 kilometers northbound along National Highway 105, 3 kilometers eastbound from the north of Dongtiangong Village, passes through Wang Xiaotun and Fanpizhuang, and then travels 1 kilometer southbound, and goes straight to Zhujia Factory at the east end of Guoliugou Village.

  Tankers who come from other places to pull oil usually come at night or Saturday and Sunday. If the day arrives, stop at the nearby Kongcun gas station and wait until it gets dark. In the oil truck, the villagers saw cars in Nanjing, Jiangsu, Jining, Shandong and other places, while an edible oil factory in Tai ‘an came in a few days.

  The rise of the Zhujiajian family makes people jealous. Rural madness: Zhujia can earn 200,000 to 300,000 yuan a day.

  Waste cooking oil is made into biodiesel, feed oil and other legal ways, and its profit margin is far less than that of illegal "edible oil". The fundamental reason why gutter oil is on the table is the existence of this profiteering space, and this profiteering method has not been punished for a long time.

  The raw material oil of gutter oil, known as "crude oil" in the industry, is generally refined from the meal waste pulled out from the restaurant trench, and some of it is refined from the discarded oil of fried food and animal fat. The site of refining "crude oil" (especially the refining of meal waste) is generally extremely dirty, which is scattered by some individual practitioners in the suburbs of various cities. The Zhujia brothers, Liu Liguo and other Pingyin waste oil plants are engaged in the acquisition of "crude oil" and the processing of "red oil".

  The whole chain of cooking oil on the table is full of illegal interests. Taking the processing of "red oil" as an example, according to Liu Liguo’s later statement, in 2011, the "crude oil" acquired was more than 5,000-6,000 yuan per ton. The main product of his gutter oil factory is refined oil, which is called "red oil" by the industry, and the price is around 8300 yuan. Liu Liguo conservatively said that the production loss per ton of "red oil" is about 800 yuan, and the production cost is about 600 yuan. If you process 1 ton of "crude oil", you will probably earn five or six hundred yuan.

  Zhujiajian oil plant is not without objection. The villagers said that when the southeast wind blows, most of the villages stink. Because of the strong taste in the village, young people can’t get married, so rich people move to the city to live. The Zhujiajian brothers are overbearing, and the people in the village have great opinions and have no place to mention them.

  Why don’t environmental protection departments and other government departments check? The villagers’ answer is: every year, people from the government come to check, but the Zhujiajian family can last for half a year with some money. "After a long time, law enforcement officers and Zhujia will mature."

  In this environment, the Zhujiajian made the industry bigger and bigger, which also attracted the envy of some villagers with thin funds and followed suit. Liu Liguo was of course the most successful imitator, and later became the most powerful competitor of the Zhujiajian brothers in the local area.

  In addition to Liu Liguo, in 2009, in Dong ‘e Town, west of Confucius Village, a waste oil processing plant has been in operation for a long time in the old workshop of the old paper mill. Here, it is very quiet by the 220 national highway in the west, the short hillside in the east and far from the village. In Jianggou Village, the town, a ginger boss who engaged in sweet potato processing quietly switched to waste oil processing, but it was left unattended for several years. A villager in nearby North Zhang Cun later told Caixin that he thought his superiors allowed him to do so.

  By January, 2011, Wang Zigang, Yu Shubin, Song Qinghua and others from Kongcun had established Jinan Taixin Oil Industry Co., Ltd. in partnership on the south hillside of Jingou Village, west of Kongcun Town. At 3 kilometers south of Confucius Village and south of Dongtiangong Village, Zhao Jingyu, Qu Hou and others from Confucius Village also set up Jinan Zhengcheng Feed Co., Ltd. in partnership.

  According to Liu Liguo’s confession, there are at least five waste oil enterprises in Pingyin County alone.

  Linyi is another gathering place of waste oil enterprises in Shandong Province, and Liu Liguo later reported four enterprises here. They also lack corresponding supervision and exist openly for many years.

  "Advanced" gutter oil

  For several years, Chen Junshi, an academician of China Academy of Engineering and a researcher at the Institute of Nutrition and Food Safety of China CDC, repeatedly told the media that the problem of cooking oil in China is not serious, because the technology of cooking oil with cooking oil is complicated, which is difficult for ordinary people to master, and the refining cost is expensive, which is not worth the loss.

  However, in a public occasion a few months ago, Chen Junshi admitted to many media reporters including Caixin that he had underestimated the present situation of cooking oil on the table. What’s more, what Chen Junshi has learned shows that many enterprises involved in gutter oil crimes not only have mastered the refining technology, but also have a high level. Many food safety experts believe that there must be professional oil experts involved in the production of waste oil.

  If the prosecution is admitted by the court, Liu Liguo is engaged in the processing of waste oil, which is the most important part of this "advanced" waste oil business.

  Around 2007, Liu Liguo started his own transformation of waste oil business in the small yard next to Pingyin Aluminum Factory. For his business after 2007, Ningbo police and prosecutors directly stated that he was producing waste oil for consumption, but he denied it in court and retorted that he was only producing feed oil beyond the business scope.

  Processing waste cooking oil into feed oil for feed production is another legal way to utilize waste cooking oil. However, the production of feed-grade mixed oil must obtain the permission of the provincial agricultural department, and Liu Liguo’s company has never obtained the permission.

  In the domestic feed oil market, manufacturers without production licenses account for a large proportion, and many enterprises’ feed oil eventually flows, and there are also regulatory blind spots. It is unknown whether there are enterprises that import waste oil products into the edible oil market in the name of feed oil.

  On March 9, 2009, Liu Liguo rented a 1,300-square-meter workshop in Jixi Industrial Park in Pingyin County with a registered capital of 500,000 yuan, and established Jinan Bohui Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Bohui Company). The company claims that it can produce 10,000 tons of biological wax and 20,000 tons of refined feed oil annually.

  In May 2010, Liu Liguo registered and established Jinan wesen Energy Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Green Company). According to the industrial and commercial archives, the company has a registered capital of 1 million yuan, and its general business projects are the production and sales of biodiesel, oleic acid, stearic acid and fatty acids. His family told Caixin reporter that the actual total investment of Green Company was nearly 10 million yuan, and Liu Liguo borrowed nearly 2 million yuan from relatives and friends, and borrowed nearly 2 million yuan.

  According to the oil processing experts told Caixin reporter, in fact, the use of "crude oil" to produce feed oil and biodiesel is mainly in different directions, and some technical processes in the early stage are not very different. Lawyer Wang Silu also believes that Green’s biodiesel equipment can be used to produce feed oil after simple transformation except for individual process equipment. After the feed oil reaches a certain acid value, it is easy to be transported into the edible oil market.

  Huang Changshui, a buyer of "crude oil" in Ningbo, is one of the raw material suppliers of Liu Liguo’s enterprises. After his arrest, Huang Changshui said that he met Li Shujun (who was in charge of purchasing raw materials in Liu Liguo’s enterprise) in the first half of 2009. At that time, Li Shujun measured his oil with an instrument and thought that the acid price was high, so he didn’t buy it. Huang Changshui judged that Li Shujun had a high demand for oil. Unlike industrial oil, it was probably used for cooking oil.

  Acid value is a sign of free fatty acid content in fat. Generally, the smaller the acid value, the better the quality of oil. Generally, the finished fourth-grade soybean oil has an acid value of ≤ 3.0; First-class soybean oil, acid value ≤0.2. The acid value of feed-grade mixed oil is ≤20.

  After the incident, many core managers of Green Company confessed the production process of the company: basically, more than 30 tons of "crude oil" was delivered to the company every day. After unloading, someone will test the moisture and acidity in the "crude oil". For "crude oil", Green’s requirements are that the water content should not exceed 7% and the acid value should not exceed 15. "Crude oil" is heated and melted and sent to the hydrolysis workshop. There are nine iron cans in the hydrolysis workshop. Workers put clay and activated carbon in the iron cans for adsorption and filtration. After this processing, the color of "crude oil" becomes clear and the smell becomes smaller.

  After that, "crude oil" will enter the distillation workshop for high-temperature distillation to remove impurities, sour taste and spicy taste again; Finally, the "crude oil" enters the fractionation workshop, and the distilled "crude oil" is physically diverted to form products, of which 30% to 40% are fatty acids and 60% to 70% are red oil.

  Among Green’s products, fatty acids are by-products. The ex-factory price of "red oil" is more than 8,000 yuan per ton, which is the company’s main profit item. Its acidity requirement is about 2, which has basically reached the standard of four-grade soybean oil.

  According to the information of the prosecution, after processing, "red oil" has no odor, looks clean, and its color is darker than that of edible oil. Its main indicators are close to that of edible oil, but it has no fragrance, but it is a little spicy.

  Li Shujun confessed that when customers have requirements for oil products to be spicy, he will arrange workers to taste the spicy degree of oil. Li Shujun also tasted it once and retched for several days. If the oil has a spicy taste, it should be distilled at high temperature to deodorize it. Generally, the temperature of distillation is controlled at about 270 degrees. If the oil is a little spicy, the temperature will be raised to 290 degrees. But this method can not completely remove the spicy taste, but can only reduce it.

  Ordinary workers are unaware of the company’s production situation. Yang Honglei, an employee, confessed that during the processing, workers were not allowed to bring outsiders into the factory, nor were they allowed to cross posts, and they were not allowed to ask questions at ordinary times. In the refined oil workshop, the east gate is usually locked, and the west gate is closed, so workers have to close the door behind them when they enter and leave.

  In fact, Green Company pollutes the surrounding environment greatly. In the impression of Feng Sister-in-law, a villager on the nearby Diaoshanpo, on the afternoon of April 22, 2010, there was a smoky smell. "It was a smell of dead cats and rotten dogs, which smoked people except retching, and then they had a headache." Since then, the roses planted near the company will die for no reason, the fruits on the fruit trees will turn black and fall off, and rabbits and chickens will die of respiratory infection. The victims petitioned several times, but to no avail.

  Before Liu Liguo’s company was raided by the police, all procedures were legal. In October 2010, Shandong Academy of Sciences issued an environmental impact report, saying that the project construction is feasible from the perspective of environmental impact. In August 2010, the feasibility study report of the project made by Jinan Engineering Consulting Institute stated that the project recycled waste oil to produce biodiesel, which protected the urban and rural environment and effectively prevented waste oil from flowing into the dining table.

  "The absence of government supervision is an important reason for the proliferation of manufacturing and selling’ gutter oil’." Liu Liguo’s defense lawyer, Wang Silu, once said in court that the long-term existence of gutter oil production and sales is the long-term default of the government based on the consideration of promoting regional economy; This phenomenon is tantamount to sending a signal to the local people in Pingyin County, making them generally believe that it is not illegal to manufacture and sell gutter oil.

  Ding Shihui, deputy head of the Public Security Corps of Zhejiang Provincial Public Security Bureau, who was in charge of investigating the case of Green Company, also believed that the biggest difficulty in dealing with food safety problems lies in local protection. In an interview with Xinmin Weekly, he said: "For the sake of taxation and political achievements, (relevant departments) turned a deaf ear to the problems existing in the jurisdiction and even reported by the people many times, and even formed a community of interests with illegal manufacturers."

  Inter-provincial chain

  Another thing that worries food safety experts has been verified in the largest gutter oil case in China: in the process of manufacturing and selling gutter oil, one enterprise is often only responsible for one section, and its raw materials and finished products are often transferred and sold across regions or even provinces, which is very difficult to investigate.

  A complete process chain of illegal waste cooking oil generally consists of digging and collecting waste cooking oil, crude refining "crude oil", refining "red oil" and adding edible oil. "Red oil" has many names in the market, and illegally entering the edible market is called "rice bran oil". Generally speaking, in the black chain of gutter oil, "rice bran oil" can be sold as "refined oil" after blending with edible oil.

  The sale of Green Company’s "Red Oil" is a "trade secret" and Liu Liguo is personally responsible for it. According to the prosecution’s materials, if there is "goods" to be delivered, Liu Liguo will contact the driver at noon or afternoon the day before and give them the telephone number of the consignee. Not only does the source of "crude oil" come from all over the country, but Liu Liguo’s finished product "red oil" is also sold in other provinces.

  In 2009, Liu Liguo’s customer network has basically taken shape. This year, he reconnected with Cheng Jiangping, who is an oil business intermediary. In February of that year, through his introduction, I met Yuan Yi, who runs a grand grain and oil firm in Qingfeng grain and oil market in Henan.

  Yuan Yi started cooking oil in 2008. According to Liu Liguo’s confession, in June and July of 2009, after Bohui Company was put into production, Yuan Yilu continued to import oil from Liu Liguo. Her requirement for "red oil" was that the acid value should not exceed 2 and the taste should not be spicy. Yuan Yi has to pay the introducer Cheng Jiangping and 1000 yuan a commission for each car fuel.

  Yuan took a handful of oil from Liu Liguo and called it "rice bran oil". In her Qingfeng market, many people are selling "rice bran oil". She later confessed that in business, others are also doing "rice bran oil" business, and this piece is also profitable, and it is also a variety in her entire product structure, and customers have needs; Without such low-end products, it will have an impact on the sales of other high-end products.

  Ningbo police later accused Yuan Yiming of knowing that Liu Liguo’s kitchen waste oil was processed into refined oil, but he still bought it in large quantities, sold it to Liu Hanju in Xinxiang, Henan Province and Qiao Xinbao’s grain and oil company in Sanmenxia at a higher price, or sold it to the canteen and night stalls on the construction site through canned retail, causing the kitchen waste oil to flow back to the dining table, with sales reaching 3 million yuan.

  In June 2009, Liu Liguo learned from the delivery driver that a batch of oil that Yuan Yi wanted from Bohui Company was sent to Henan Wellcome Grease Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Wellcome Company). This is a company engaged in oil, edible oil and other businesses. Its chairman Bu Qingfeng also runs Henan Qinglong Trading Co., Ltd.. In August and September of that year, Su Feng, Ma Guofu and Cui Rufeng from Henan province and Liu Zhanliang from Hebei province first pulled oil from Bohui Company and resold it to Wellcome Company.

  In October 2009, Liu Liguo found the information of Wellcome Company and Chen Baogang, the general manager of Qinglong Company, and went to Zhengzhou to find Chen Baogang with a bottle of "red oil" samples. In the absence of Chen Baogang, Liu Liguo left sample oil and business cards in the office.

  Since then, Chen Baogang introduced Liu Liguo to Wellcome Company. Since the second half of 2009, Wellcome has successively imported more than 7,000 tons of oil from Liu Liguo, becoming its biggest customer in one fell swoop. In Chen Baogang’s impression, Liu Liguo wears glasses, is quite tall and has a flexible brain. He said that he is doing many bioenergy projects, such as developing biodiesel.

  Ningbo police later accused Wellcome of blending the inferior refined oil purchased from Liu Liguo into normal soybean oil and selling it to food enterprises such as Henan Longxiang Food Co., Ltd., with a total sales volume of more than 160 tons and a sales volume of more than 1.5 million yuan; It was sold to more than 50 enterprises such as Henan Muhe Feed Co., Ltd. for feed production and drug processing, with a total sales of more than 30,000 tons and sales of 300 million yuan; It accused Qinglong Company of doing the same thing and selling it to Jiaozuo Health Yuan Company for the production of drugs, with sales of nearly 50 million yuan.

  In 2009, Liu Liguo also expanded the local business in Pingyin. In the "feed oil" rivers and lakes, Pingyin people Yu Haibo and Xing Hongsheng did not set foot in it at first.

  In 2006, Yu Haibo registered Jinan Qianmen Business Center, bought four-grade soybean oil from all places at low prices and sold it to Shandong Qifa Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. to earn the difference. In 2008, he got a bottle of sample gutter oil from Chuanbo Zhu, Guoliugou Village, and went to Qifa Company for inspection. The inspectors of the pharmaceutical factory said that the sample was qualified. Yu Haibo decided to get oil from Zhujiajian. By October 2009, the merchant found Liu Liguo and began to import oil from Bohui Company, and transported about 3,500 tons before and after.

  In the second half of 2010, through Cheng Jiangping’s introduction, Liu Liguo also met Li Guangsheng, a native of Xi ‘an. Li Guangsheng usually rents a tanker from Linyi to transport oil.

  In the later court, Liu Liguo and others were accused of six criminal facts:

  Knowing that the other party is engaged in edible oil business, or knowing that the other party will blend the non-edible oil purchased from it with normal soybean oil, and then sell it in the name of normal soybean oil, the non-edible oil processed from kitchen waste oil is sold to: Liaocheng Changquan Grain and Oil Industrial Company of Shandong Province operated by Yang Jiquan, with a sales volume of 5.69 million yuan; Sales to Yuan Yi or Yibao Grain and Oil Business Department of Weibin District, Xinxiang City, Henan Province and Sanmenxia Xintai Grain and Oil Co., Ltd. operated by Liu Hanju and Qiao Xinbao respectively with Yuan Yi and Cheng Jiangping as intermediaries, with sales reaching 3.08 million yuan; Sales to Wellcome Company and Qinglong Company, with sales reaching 66.18 million yuan; Sales to Jinan Qianmen Business Center, with sales of 16.83 million yuan; Sales to Liu Zhanliang’s Shunfa Grain and Oil Distribution Office in Xingtai Development Zone, Hebei Province, with sales reaching 7.04 million yuan; It was sold to Shaanxi Gufeng Grain and Oil Industry and Trade Company in Li Guangsheng, with a sales volume of 1.32 million yuan.

  Hit hard

  At 4: 00 am on July 4, 2011, drivers Liu Fanjin and Shi Baoyu drove to deliver the goods as usual. They unloaded oil in a factory without a factory name in the suburb of Sanmenxia. This is a deal under the surveillance of the police, and it is also the last business done by Green Company.

  On the afternoon of July 4, Mrs. Feng, a resident, mowed grass in the field and saw many people coming near her home. Some people in police uniforms, some with cameras, rushed to Green Company from the cornfield above the orchard …

  Liu Liguo was taken away at the gate of Bohui Company. According to Xinmin Weekly, he hurried downstairs with a phone in one hand and a car key in the other, and was held down just before he walked to the Mitsubishi SUV. Afterwards, he learned that he knew that some policemen had rushed into Green’s company and was looking for someone to inquire about the origin of these policemen.

  On June 6, 2011, before January, Green Company completed the equipment transformation, and the production capacity increased from 30 tons of refined oil per day before 2011 to 60 tons per day.

  His customer base was still expanding. Hebei people Sun Weidong and Sun Huping are engaged in edible oil wholesale in Liaocheng, Shandong Province. Since 2010, they have bought 100 tons of oil five times. Guo Zhiqin, Fushun, Liaoning Province, began to send cars to transport oil in May 2011, and transported about 200 tons. Guo case was included in the top ten gutter oil cases announced by the Ministry of Public Security in 2011.

  At this time, in Guoliugou village, the Zhujiajian brothers built a new factory, and the two factories can produce 100 tons of oil every day. In the south of Jingou Village, Taixin Company in Wang Zigang can produce about 30 tons of oil every day; Zhengcheng Feed Co., Ltd. opened by Zhao Jingyu produces about 30 tons of oil every day.

  When the business of ditch oil plants in Pingyin is booming, the end point is approaching. On March 30, 2011, when Green Company had not started construction, Huang Changshui, who bought "crude oil" in Ningbo, was questioned by Ninghai police on suspicion of producing and selling food that did not meet the hygiene standards. The eyes of the police were drawn to Pingyin. A week ago, the salesman sent by Li Shujun also bought 185 barrels of "crude oil" from Huang Changshui …

  Only two weeks after Liu Liguo was arrested, on July 20, 2011, Jinan Public Security Bureau filed a case investigation against the developed company in Guoliugou Village. The police later claimed that 16 people, including Zhu Chuanfeng, were arrested, and the first major case of producing and selling waste oil in Shandong Province was detected. At the same time, three enterprises, including Taixin Company and Zhengcheng Company, were destroyed, 38 suspects were arrested and five waste oil production lines were sealed up. The waste oil factory in the old paper mill in Dong ‘e Town was reported as early as November 2010, and was ordered by Dong ‘e Town Government to stop production, so the boss surnamed Jiang escaped.

  In August, 2012, under the jurisdiction designated by the Supreme People’s Procuratorate and the Supreme People’s Court, it was examined and prosecuted by the Ningbo Procuratorate and tried by the Ningbo Intermediate People’s Court. The relevant defendants were tried in three groups according to the production and sales links.

  In the trial on August 22nd, seven people, including Liu Liguo, collectively retracted their confessions, and both the prosecution and the defense debated whether the defendant "knowingly and intentionally" and whether the evidence could prove that the products were "toxic and harmful food" and "fake and inferior products".

  In court, Liu Liguo spoke clearly and logically, which left a deep impression on people. He said that he didn’t know what he bought his oil for, and there was no report that someone had health problems after eating it.

  Nie Jianhua, deputy director of the Public Prosecution Office of the Supreme People’s Procuratorate, said in an interview with People’s Daily that it was very difficult to punish crimes endangering food safety. First, it is difficult to prove, including the intentional proof of the suspect’s subjective crime, the proof of the amount of crime, and the characteristics of cross-regional joint crime have also increased the difficulty of obtaining evidence; Second, it is difficult to obtain the necessary expert conclusions for prosecuting charges and finalizing the case.

  By December 12, 2012, the case was heard again in the anxious waiting of Liu’s family. The prosecution changed the criminal facts of Liu Liguo involving Li Guangsheng. The lawyer will plead not guilty again.

  Four men were arrested in Liujia, Pingyin, which caused the family to collapse half the sky. The postcards written by Liu Liguo from the detention center made my sisters cry. He was worried about his old mother, but he didn’t forget to explain: it started with him, and he was responsible for the monthly living expenses of his men, so as to feed them …

  At this time, the families of other trench oil cases in Pingyin County are also suffering. In Pingyin County People’s Hospital, a waste oil factory owner is still lying in a hospital bed. The villagers said that in the Jinan police action in 2011, he could not accept the reality and committed suicide, injuring his cervical vertebra, which was in danger of paralysis. He told Caixin reporter, "No way, I caught up."

  In Guoliugou village, Zhu Chuanfeng’s 70-year-old mother sometimes rides a tricycle through the factory. Three of her four sons were taken away, and she often wiped her tears. In the case of Zhujia, the judicial progress has not been made public.

How should "fast food" be "broken"? Can you lose weight?

Summer is the season to lose weight, and all kinds of "body PK" are constantly staged in the streets and alleys. Summer is also a good time for exercise. The metabolism of the human body is vigorous, and the calorie intake is relatively easy to be consumed, which reduces the conversion rate of fat. At this time, weight loss can get twice the result with half the effort.

Weight loss mainly depends on diet management and physical exercise, plus behavioral intervention. It is said that "three points exercise, seven points diet", which shows that diet is more important than exercise. However, whether it is a high-protein diet or a low-fat and low-carbon diet, there are very few people who can persist in losing weight.

Today, I will introduce you to a "fast food" method that most people can stick to.

Emphasize rhythmic attention to when to eat.

"Guidelines for Medical Nutrition Treatment of Overweight/Obesity in China (2021)" points out that "light fasting", also called intermittent energy restriction diet, is a dietary pattern of fasting or giving limited energy intake within a specified period according to certain rules. "Fast food" originated from religious Ramadan, such as Muslim Ramadan, China Taoism and so on.

Modern "fast food" is different from long-term dieting, which emphasizes rhythm, not only what to eat, but also when to eat. "Fast food" can be regarded as a way of eating, a time arrangement that cycles between fasting (or reducing calorie intake) and non-fasting.

What are the eating patterns of "light fasting"? According to the different intermittent time, there are several popular and clinically verified ones:

Is to eat food one day and only drink water the other. Of course, it is not a simple "eat and drink a day, and eat nothing for a day". What to eat on fasting day and opening day is also particular. Generally speaking, you can relax the restrictions and eat delicious and comfortable on the opening day, but you should not eat high-calorie foods at will. It is best to eat foods with high nutritional density, including coarse grains, protein, high-quality fat and fresh fruits and vegetables. Fasting days can be carried out in two ways: one is strictly fasting, without any calories, only drinking water and tea or black coffee without additives; A food that is allowed to consume about 25% energy, that is, about 500 kilocalories, and is mainly composed of high-quality protein and fruits and vegetables.

Out of seven days in a week, two consecutive days are randomly selected, and only 25% of the normal energy is consumed, about 600 kilocalories for men and 500 kilocalories for women, and the rest five days are relatively normal. This diet-controlled diet is a reliable diet that is internationally recognized at present. China’s latest authoritative weight loss guide "Blue Book of Obesity Prevention and Control in China" also recommends this method. It is pointed out in the book that "5+2 fasting" can improve weight and metabolism without serious adverse reactions. Scientific "fast food" is not only to control the total calorie intake, but also to ensure nutrition as much as possible, to ensure that staple food, meat, vegetables, eggs, milk and other foods are ingested, so as to effectively avoid nutritional imbalance. Of course, we must choose "three low and one high" foods, that is, foods with low fat, low calorie, low GI (glycemic index) and high protein, and at the same time ensure enough drinking water. Eat normally on non-fasting days, because eating too little will reduce the basal metabolic rate, but it will affect the weight loss.

In a day, you only eat at will at certain times, such as the very popular "16+8 fast food", which means you only eat within 8 hours and don’t eat at other times. For example, have brunch in the morning (around 10 o’clock), eat normally at noon, and finish dinner in advance (before 6 o’clock). Food selection should also pay attention to choosing more healthy foods, avoiding fried and high-sugar foods, reducing the intake of salt and monosodium glutamate, drinking less soup and not eating snacks, otherwise it will be difficult to get results.

There is no obvious difference between these methods, but exercise is essential to achieve weight loss. Fasting days can reduce exercise, and non-fasting days should be combined with exercise, especially resistance exercise, to reduce muscle loss and achieve the goal of "losing weight faster and healthier".

Dialectical treatment is carried out under the guidance of doctors.

It is important to lose weight, and so is "fast food". Due to the existence of individual differences, it is necessary to treat it dialectically whether it is good or not. Please pay attention to the possible negative effects before starting "fast food", and it is recommended to do it under the guidance of a doctor.

① Long-term fasting and low dietary calories of gastrointestinal diseases will lead to atrophy or even disappearance of villi of gastrointestinal mucosa, which will cause a series of gastrointestinal discomfort.

(2) People who are weak in malnutrition or who have a partial eclipse rashly stop eating, which may lead to malnutrition, make the body weaker, and even have symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, palpitation and sallow complexion.

③ Pay attention to the adverse reactions in spirit. Hunger will affect people’s mood, leading to inattention, bad temper, irritability, insomnia, etc., affecting normal life. (Healthy Beijing)

Helping to build a "waste-free city", Nanjing’s largest renovation waste resource disposal plant will soon be put into trial operation.

  At present, Nanjing’s largest decoration waste resource disposal plant — — Jiufengshan Building Resource Center project has entered the equipment debugging stage before trial operation. The project has a production line for recycling decoration waste and a brick-making product line. After it is officially put into production, it can handle 300,000 tons of decoration waste every year, which is equivalent to solving the decoration waste generated by the fine decoration of 100,000 100-square-meter commercial houses and making 30 million standard bricks, which greatly enhances the capacity of construction waste disposal and renewable utilization in our city.

  Go to the rough and get the essence, decorate the garbage and then "go to work"

  Walking into Jiangbei Environmental Protection Industrial Park in Xingdian Street, Pukou District, Nanjing, an oversized "White Tofu" modern factory building attracts people’s attention. This is the Jiufengshan Building Resource Center project that will be put into trial production soon. In the past, the decoration garbage was directly transported to the landfill, and now they can be employed here again.

  In the crushing production area, a mechanical assembly line runs in an orderly way. It is understood that these crushing equipment, sorting equipment, screening equipment, etc. classify, remove and crush the decoration garbage according to the different characteristics of materials such as size and quality, and become recycled aggregate. "Recycled aggregate can be resold or used as raw material to make bricks again." The person in charge of the project of Nanjing Environment Group, the builder, said.

  "The composition of decoration waste is complicated, including lime soil, concrete blocks, wood, plastics, etc., so it is necessary to ‘ Sieve before breaking ’ 。” According to the person in charge of the project, the project adopts the technological process of "one-stage crushing+two-stage screening+multi-stage compound sorting of sundries" to build a complete set of resource disposal production line, which can handle 300,000 tons of decoration waste every year.

  Optimize the process to add "coat" to dust noise

  The decoration garbage is crushed and screened layer by layer, and almost no dust escapes in the process, because the project introduces advanced equipment such as pulse bag filter dust removal, which is distributed in the east, northwest and southwest corners of the treatment workshop.

  "A traditional production line will only be equipped with one exhaust gas treatment equipment, and we have three in one production line." The person in charge of the project said, "With these equipment, we estimate that the dust particles on the site are 10 micrograms per cubic meter, which is half lower than the local standard in Nanjing."

  At the same time, the decoration garbage disposal workshop also selects low-noise environmental protection equipment, and adopts shock absorption, sound insulation, sound absorption and noise elimination measures for sound sources such as crushers, vibrating screen separators and exhaust fans, and installs silencers or sound insulation covers, and materials such as sound insulation cotton lining the equipment shell to "coat" the noise.

  Turning waste into treasure, recycled aggregate is "reborn"

  At the end of the resource processing center is the brick-making workshop. Recycled aggregate can be put into use after mixing, stirring, high temperature pressing, kiln maintenance and other processes. The brick-making workshop of Jiufengshan Project adopts the internationally leading BESSER automatic concrete production line, which not only has low energy consumption and high durability, but also can realize automatic man-machine interaction management in key links and effectively improve the overall quality of recycled products.

  "The finished bricks produced by this production line have the advantages of good appearance and texture, high compressive strength, oxidation resistance and fastness," said the project leader of Nanjing Environment Group, the builder. "After full production, the project can provide more than 30 million high-quality finished bricks for Nanjing and surrounding cities every year."

  Thanks to the adjustable pressing die technology, the brick-making production line can be flexibly adjusted according to the market demand, producing different kinds of finished bricks such as colored floor bricks, retaining wall bricks and load-bearing blocks, which can meet different purposes such as building construction, greening gardens, high-speed slope protection, river bank slope and so on.

  Decoration waste is a common type of construction waste. Strengthening the resource utilization of construction waste is of great significance to promote the green transformation of urban and rural construction and development. According to the requirements of the 14th Five-Year Plan for the recycling of construction waste in Nanjing, Nanjing will continue to promote the construction of facilities for recycling construction waste, enhance the capacity of large-scale disposal and recycling of construction waste, promote the development of industrial agglomeration of recycling construction waste, and help build a "waste-free city".

Global new energy auto market in March: Italian sales increased by four digits.

In March this year, some people in the global new energy auto market were happy and some people were worried. China, Britain and France saw triple-digit growth, and Italian electric vehicle sales even increased 10 times year-on-year. However, countries striving for environmental protection, such as the Netherlands and Sweden, showed a downward trend. In terms of market share of electric vehicles, Norway is at the forefront of electrification, followed by Sweden, Germany and the Netherlands. In the first quarter of 2021, the sales of electric vehicles in China and Germany increased by three digits, and the market share is expected to expand rapidly.

Sales volume, global new energy in March 2021

China: New energy vehicles increased by 2.4 times year-on-year. Pure electricity and plug-in continued to set a new record.

According to the production and sales data released by China Automobile Industry Association (hereinafter referred to as "China Automobile Association"), in March 2021, the production and sales of new energy vehicles in China showed a high-speed growth momentum, reaching 216,000 vehicles and 226,000 vehicles respectively, up by 74.9% and 1.1 times, up by 2.5 times and 2.4 times. In all segments of new energy vehicles, the production and sales were 182,000 and 190,000 respectively, up 2.6 times and 2.5 times year-on-year; The production and sales of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles were 34,000 and 36,000, respectively, up 2 times and 1.9 times year-on-year; fuel battery

From January to March, the production and sales of new energy vehicles both exceeded 500,000, reaching 533,000 and 515,000 respectively, up 3.2 times and 2.8 times year-on-year. Compared with January and February, the growth rate slowed down. Among the main varieties of new energy vehicles, the production and sales of pure electric vehicles were 455,000 and 433,000 respectively, up 3.6 times and 3.1 times respectively. The production and sales of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles were 78,000 and 82,000 respectively, both increasing by 1.8 times year-on-year; The production and sales of fuel cell vehicles were 104 and 150 respectively, down by 43.2% and 27.5% respectively.

Xu Haidong, deputy chief engineer of China Automobile Association, pointed out that the good performance of production and sales of new energy vehicles in the first quarter of this year is inseparable from two key factors. First, with the joint efforts of domestic and foreign car companies, new energy vehicle products can increasingly meet the needs of consumers, and the other is that the acceptance of new energy vehicle products by private consumers is gradually increasing. Based on this, the association is still optimistic about the annual sales performance of new energy vehicles.

Germany: the market share of electric vehicles reached 23%, and sales in the first quarter rose by 177%.

In March, Germany sold more than 65,000 electric vehicles, with a market share of 23%. Both electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles performed well. Sales of pure electric vehicles increased by 191% year-on-year to 30,101 vehicles, with a market share of 10.3%; Sales of plug-in hybrid vehicles increased by 278% year-on-year to 35,580 vehicles, with a market share of 12.2%. In the case that the overall automobile market rebounded by 36% year-on-year, the sales volume of gasoline vehicles only increased by 7% to 115,174 vehicles, with a market share of 39.4%; The sales volume of diesel vehicles decreased by 5% to 64,518 vehicles, with a market share of 22.1%.

As far as models are concerned, Tesla Model 3 won the sales crown of electric vehicles in that month and sold 3,699 vehicles. The runner-up is e-Up! EV, sold 3,599 vehicles (e-Up! It has been on the market for ten years, and the electric version was launched in 2013), and there is only a gap of 100 vehicles from the champion; Ranked third with competitive cost performance, with 3,237 registered vehicles.

In the first quarter, the sales volume of electric vehicles in Germany was 142,741, up 177.7% from 51,409 in the same period last year, with a market share of 22% (9.9% for pure electric vehicles). As far as the model is concerned, Volkswagen e-Up! EV won the first quarter electric vehicle sales crown in Germany, surpassing the second Tesla Model 3 with a gap of 1,229 vehicles, and pushed the champion .3 in December last year to the third place.

UK: Sales of electric vehicles doubled to a new high, with a market share of nearly 14%.

According to the data of the British Automobile Manufacturers and Dealers Association (SMMT), following the decline in sales in February, the number of new car registrations in the UK rebounded by 11.5% year-on-year to 283,964 in March. Considering that the exhibition hall was closed that month and the sales volume was poor in the same period last year, this is already a good result.

It is worth noting that Britain is continuing to transform into new technologies, and the number of electric vehicle registrations has increased by 112% year-on-year to 39,333, a record high. In that month, the market share of electric vehicles reached 13.9%, up from 7.3% in the same period last year. Specifically, the sales of pure electric vehicles increased by 88% year-on-year to 22,003 vehicles, with a market share of 7.7%; The sales volume of plug-in hybrid vehicles rose by 152% year-on-year to 17,330 vehicles, with a market share of 6.1%.

In the first three months, 58,392 electric vehicles were registered in the UK, up 83% year-on-year, with a market share of 13.7%. 31,779 pure electric vehicles were registered, up 74% year-on-year, with a market share of 7.5%; Plug-in hybrid vehicles registered 26,613 vehicles, up 94% year-on-year, with a market share of 6.3%.

Mike Hawes, CEO of SMMT, said: "I am optimistic that consumer confidence and the market will recover." British showrooms and other non-essential retail businesses reopened on April 12th.

France: sales of electric vehicles have tripled. Model 3 defeated Peugeot e-208 and

In March this year, the number of car registrations in France increased by 192% year-on-year to 182,774. The electric vehicle market is even more popular, with the number of registered vehicles soaring by 306% year-on-year to 29,737 (the sales volume was low due to the epidemic blockade in the same period last year), with a market share of 16%. Specifically, the number of registered pure electric passenger cars increased by 183% year-on-year to 15,592, with a market share of 8.5%; The registered number of plug-in hybrid passenger cars soared by 682% year-on-year to 14,145, with a market share of 7.7%. In that month, the sales share of diesel vehicles dropped to 23%, the lowest level since the mid-1990s.

In March, the most shocking thing was that Tesla Model 3 registered 4,524 vehicles in France, which not only beat other electric vehicles, but also won the first quarter electric vehicle sales crown, which was a huge victory for Tesla; The runner-up of electric vehicle sales in that month was Peugeot e-208, with only 1,667 registered vehicles; The third place was the former overlord of the list, with 1,519 registered vehicles.

In the first three months of this year, the French electric vehicle market rose by 74.9% year-on-year to 61,950 vehicles, with a market share of 14%, up by 3 percentage points over the same period last year. Among them, the number of registered pure electric passenger cars increased by 18% year-on-year to 30,489, with a market share of 6.9%; Plug-in hybrid passenger cars surged 231% year-on-year to 31,461 vehicles, with a market share of 7.1%.

Italy: The electric vehicle market became a dark horse, with a year-on-year increase of 1041.8%.

In March, Italy achieved a strong recovery, with more than 171,000 vehicles registered, which was the best result since June 2019, far exceeding the less than 29,000 vehicles in March 2020. In March, Italy registered 15,094 electric vehicles, up 1041.8% from 1,322 vehicles in the same period last year, accounting for 8.8% of the market, up from 4.6% in the same period last year.

Specifically, in March, 7,362 pure electric vehicles were registered in Italy, breaking the record of 7,225 vehicles in December last year, up 695% from the same period last year, with a market share of 4.3%; Plug-in hybrid vehicles performed better, with 7,732 registered vehicles, which also reached a record high, about 20 times that of 389 vehicles in the same period last year. In that month, the market share of plug-in hybrid vehicles was 4.5%, surpassing pure electric vehicles for the third consecutive month, which is a new trend for Italy, which is more inclined to pure electric vehicles.

As far as models are concerned, in March, Tesla Model 3 returned to the top of the electric vehicle list with a registration of 1,363; Fiat 500e also performed well, ranking second with 1,056 registered vehicles, but still giving up the pure electric vehicle sales crown that has been in succession for three months, which is about 300 vehicles away from the champion; ForTwo registered 759 vehicles, ranking third.

Norway: the market share of electric vehicles accounts for four fifths, and the demand for Model 3 is strong.

In March, Norway’s electric vehicle market continued to expand, with the number of registered vehicles increasing by 39% year-on-year to 13,003, accounting for 84.9% of the total automobile market. This performance is enough to beat the performance of 5,315 Model 3s when they arrived in Norway in March 2019, but it is slightly inferior to that in December 2020.

It is worth noting that the market for pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles is expanding. In the same month, the registration of pure electric vehicles in Norway increased by 23.8% year-on-year to 8,624 vehicles, with a market share of 56.3%; The registered number of plug-in hybrid vehicles rose by 83.1% year-on-year to 4,379 vehicles, with a market share of 28.6%.

In the first quarter of this year, Norway registered 29,764 electric passenger cars, up 27% from the same period last year, with a market share of about 82%. Among them, there were 19,159 pure electric vehicles, up 17% year-on-year, with a market share of 52.8%; There are 10,605 plug-in hybrid vehicles, up 70% year-on-year, with a market share of 29.2%.

In March this year, the biggest star in the Norwegian electric vehicle market was Tesla Model 3, with 2,169 vehicles registered, and 2,566 vehicles registered in the first three months, which was enough to win the first quarter electric vehicle sales crown. These data are enough to alleviate the speculation of insufficient demand for Tesla, and the upcoming listing will further increase Tesla’s share. By the end of March, Tesla had sold more than 60,000 vehicles in Norway. Another strong competitor is the newly released Volkswagen ID.4, with 856 registered vehicles. This time, ID.3 is not on the Top 20 list.

Netherlands: Electric vehicle sales continued to decline, but the market share rose to 20%.

Registration of electric passenger cars in the Netherlands (Source: Insideevs)

In March, the sales of passenger cars in the Netherlands continued to decline, down 18% year-on-year, and electric vehicles were also affected. Following the 20% year-on-year decline in electric vehicle registration in February, the number of electric vehicle registrations in the Netherlands decreased by 4% year-on-year to 4,834 vehicles in March. The only positive highlight is that the market share of electric vehicles has reached 20% (9% for pure electric vehicles), an increase of 3 percentage points over the same period last year. As can be seen from the figure, the sales volume of electric vehicles at the beginning of the year is usually average (mainly due to changes in financial incentive policies), so the monthly sales volume may start to increase in the future.

As far as models are concerned, Tesla Model 3 successfully returned to the championship in the electric vehicle rankings in March, registering 341 vehicles, which is the first time that it has won the championship since September 2020. However, this is also the usual style of Tesla, and the company usually achieves high delivery in the third month of each quarter. The second place is Volvo XC40 PHEV with 257 registered vehicles; The third place is Volkswagen ID.4, with a registered volume of 247 vehicles. Interestingly, although the sales of ID.3 were hot at the end of last year, it was not on the list this time. Perhaps there are many false self-registrations that need to find buyers.

In the first quarter of this year, the number of registered electric vehicles in the Netherlands was 12,221, with a market share of 15% (5.6% for pure electric vehicles), which was 3 percentage points higher than the 12% in the same period last year. Tesla Model 3 and Volkswagen ID.4 jumped to the third and fourth place respectively in the list of best-selling electric vehicles in the Netherlands in the first three months.

Sweden: The electric vehicle market shrank by 13%, but the plug-in hybrid car rose by 212%.

In March, the Swedish electric vehicle market shrank by 13% year-on-year to 17,543 vehicles, but the market share of electric vehicles reached 37%, up from 27.2% in the same period in 2020. Unusually, the number of registered plug-in hybrid vehicles rose by 212% year-on-year, accounting for 31.5% of the market, and the share of pure electric vehicles was only 5.5%. This ratio of 6: 1 is in stark contrast to last year’s ratio of about 2.5: 1.

The reason is that since April 1st, Swedish policy has changed, and it began to be more inclined to support pure electric buses and further punish carbon emissions. Among them, pure electric vehicles increased by about 1,000 euros to 6,800 euros, which is about 25% of the price of electric vehicles; The subsidy for plug-in hybrid vehicles has been reduced from the previous 2,000 to 3,900 euros to 1,250 to 2,800 euros, with an average reduction of 1,000 euros per vehicle. Therefore, March is the "last chance" for consumers to buy plug-in hybrid cars with the best subsidies, and pure electric vehicle consumers will choose to wait until April to buy a car.

In addition, the government has also raised the annual tax on automobile carbon emissions (new cars must be paid in the first three years), making cars with carbon emissions below 90 g/km more attractive than before. In particular, vehicles with high carbon emissions, such as fuel, large and heavy internal combustion engines, will be punished, and an additional three-year tax will be paid. Non-hybrid vehicles with carbon emissions of 230 g/km, such as Volvo XC90, will have to pay about 5,000 euros.

Spain: Pure electric vehicles rose by 174%, plug-in hybrid vehicles surged by 465%

According to the data of the Spanish Automobile Manufacturers Association (ANFAC), the sales of new cars in Spain rose by 128% year-on-year to 85,819 in March. In March 2020, some dealers stopped operating in the epidemic blockade, but the sales volume in March was still far lower than that in 2019.

In that month, the electric vehicle market also performed well with a market share of 6.5%. Sales of pure electric vehicles rose by 174% year-on-year, with a market share of 2.4%, up from 2% in March last year. Plug-in hybrid vehicles surged 465% year-on-year, with a market share of 4.1%, compared with 1.7% in the same period last year. Sales of fully hybrid vehicles increased by 226% year-on-year, accounting for 22% of the market, compared with 15% in the same period last year.

The sales volume of gasoline vehicles increased by 101% year-on-year, and the market share was 48.7%, which was 6.5 percentage points lower than that in March 2020. Diesel vehicles accounted for 21.7%, down 3.1 percentage points from March 2020; LPG vehicles increased by 404%, with a market share of 1%.

On April 9, the Spanish energy department said that the government had approved a plan of 800 million euros (about 950 million US dollars). By 2023, private buyers in Spain have the right to apply for a subsidy of up to 7,000 euros per car. If the town government and enterprises buy the fleet for taxis, they will get more subsidies. Buyers of electric trucks can get subsidies as high as 9,000 euros. It is planned to take effect on April 10th.

United States: In the first quarter, the sales of pure electric vehicles nearly doubled to 100,000 hybrid vehicles.

In the first quarter of 2021, the sales of new cars in the US market increased by 11% year-on-year to 3.9 million. According to the latest report of Cox Automotive and Kelly Blue Book, the total sales volume of electric vehicles in the United States exceeded 300,000, which exceeded the overall market.

In the first quarter, the sales volume of electric vehicles in the United States was 303,753, up 80.8% from 167,966 in the same period last year, with a market share of 7.8%. Specifically, the sales volume of pure electric vehicles was 98,832, a record high, up 44.8% from 68,247 in the same period last year, with a market share of only 2.5%; The sales volume of hybrid vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles was 204,921, up 105.5% from 99,719 in the same period last year, with a market share of 5.2%.

In the first three months of this year, Tesla was the head player in the pure electric vehicle market in the United States, selling about 69,300 vehicles, accounting for 71% of the market, down from 83% in the same period last year. The best-selling electric vehicle in the United States is Model Y, followed by Model 3 (down 50% year-on-year), Bolt EV and Mustang Mach-E.

In the case that some brands don’t announce the sales of plug-in hybrid cars, the top three players in the hybrid/plug-in hybrid car market in the United States are: 124,449 vehicles (up 151% year-on-year), accounting for nearly 25% of Toyota’s total sales, including 32,263 Toyota Rongfang Hybrid; : More than 22,000 vehicles, accounting for 7.1% of Honda’s total sales; Ford: More than 18,000 vehicles.

Follow the general secretary to explore the ecological culture in ancient books. Action articles "People will live up to the castle peak, and the castle peak will live up to people."

  From the banks of the Yangtze River to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, from the foot of the Tianshan Mountains to the coast of the East China Sea, since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the general secretary of the Supreme Leader has traveled all over the country, and the concept of "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets" has spread all over China.

  The green hills are endless, and the green waters are long. We walk between the mountains and rivers and explore the way of ecological management.

  "Ecological prosperity leads to civilized prosperity, while ecological decline leads to civilized decline. The ecological environment is the foundation of human survival and development, and changes in the ecological environment directly affect the rise and fall of civilization. " This is the profound conclusion drawn by the Supreme Leader General Secretary from the evolution of ancient ecological culture and civilization.

  Report to the 20th CPC National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed that Chinese-style modernization is the modernization of harmonious coexistence between man and nature.

  "Protecting the environment means protecting the productive forces, and improving the environment means developing the productive forces" … … Words are sonorous and inspiring.

  "When the weather is favorable, the quantity and location are favorable, and the effort is less and the success is more."

  In 2018, at the National Ecological Environmental Protection Conference, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader quoted "When the weather is favorable, the quantity and location are less, but the success is more" in Qi Min Yao Shu, emphasizing activities in accordance with the laws of nature.

  Traditional agriculture emphasizes that production activities should be carried out in accordance with the weather and local conditions.

  In May, 2021, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader got off the bus temporarily during an inspection tour in Nanyang, Henan, and walked into a wheat field to see the growth of wheat.

  In November 2023, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader visited Zhuozhou, Hebei Province, and got off the bus temporarily. He saw that the winter wheat just planted last month had sprouted and praised "good moisture".

  In March, 2024, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader went to Changde, Hunan Province, and walked into the comprehensive demonstration area of local grain production of 10,000 mu to see the progress of seedling cultivation and spring ploughing.

  In spring ploughing, Xia Yun, autumn harvest and winter storage, the Supreme Leader’s General Secretary is well versed in farming. "Frogs beat drums, beans are buried in the ground", "May Day seedlings are not planted in the south" and "inch wheat is not afraid of inch water, but inch wheat is afraid of inch water" … … Behind the familiarity with agricultural proverbs is the general secretary of the supreme leader’s understanding and attention to grasping the farming season.

  Those who do it often succeed, and those who do it often arrive.

  Before and after Qingming Festival, it is a good time to plant trees. Shovel and shovel, cultivate cofferdam, lift water and water … … Over the years, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has arranged an activity, that is, to participate in voluntary tree planting activities with the people in the capital.

  In March 2022, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came to Huangcun Town, Daxing District, Beijing to participate in voluntary tree planting activities in the capital and plant trees with everyone. Xinhua News Agency reporter Huang Jingwen photo

  "The predecessors planted trees and enjoyed the cool. Each of us is a cool person, but we must be tree growers." General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that an important significance of voluntary tree planting by the whole people is to let everyone establish the awareness of ecological civilization and form a consensus and joint efforts to promote the construction of ecological civilization.

  "Everyone strives to be a green emissary and an ecological pioneer, so as to make the beautiful China greener and more colorful", the General Secretary said, and insisted on doing so for many years. "Perseverance and long-term contribution will make our motherland bluer in sky, greener in mountains, cleaner in water and better in ecological environment".

  "Take it in moderation and use it in moderation"

  At the opening ceremony of the World Horticultural Exposition in Beijing, China in 2019, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader quoted the words in Zi Zhi Tong Jian as saying: "‘ Take it in moderation and use it sparingly ’ It is the true meaning of ecological civilization. "

  A river with clear water and green hills on both sides. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader gave a good prescription of "jointly protecting and not developing", which enabled the industrial transformation and upgrading, the regulation of the coastline along the Yangtze River and the "ten-year fishing ban" to be implemented in depth, and the ecological environment protection and economic and social development of the Yangtze River have undergone historic and turning changes.

  The Qinling Mountains are towering and covered with vegetation. In order to protect the ecological environment of Qinling Mountains, the central government sent a special rectification working group to settle in Shaanxi. With the launch of the special rectification campaign, 1,194 illegally built villas were completely rectified. The exhortation that "to be a good ecological guardian of Qinling Mountains, you must never repeat the same mistakes and never leave a bad name in history" makes the strict observance of the ecological red line and "not to cross the line one step further" become a conscious follow, and the mountains and rivers of Qinling Mountains will be fully green.

  In April, 2020, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader came to Niubeiliang National Nature Reserve in Zhashui County, Shangluo City to inspect the ecological protection of Qinling Mountains. Xinhua News Agency reporter Ju Peng photo

  Back in time, the idea of ecological governance is consistent.

  As early as during his work in Xiamen, Fujian Province, the supreme leader comrades were deeply concerned about the comprehensive management of Yaodang Lake. Dredging the shore, invigorating the water body and beautifying the environment, from the cross-flow of sewage and the extinction of fish and shrimp to the green shore with clean water, birds flying and fish jumping, and turning cocoons into butterflies, has become a model of harmonious coexistence between man and nature.
