Science popularization： five kinds of particles that ＂don’t exist＂ but can change the world

　　Particles refer to the smallest component of matter that can exist in a free state, including electrons and neutrons. The cornerstone of modern physics — — The physical standard model is essentially a "family tree" of a particle family, and its members are familiar to everyone. The Higgs boson, which finally revealed its beauty, was sought after by scientists from all walks of life as soon as it came out.

　　But there is an equally important class of particles that nobody cares about Of course, this is understandable, because these "quasi-particles" do not really exist, but their unique physical properties are enough to change modern science and technology. In a recent report, the British magazine New Scientist listed five quasi-particles that "don’t exist" but can change the face of the world.

　　Phonon: electric cowboy

　　In 2012, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN discovered the Higgs boson, which is the mass source of other particles. So far, all 62 kinds of elementary particles have been discovered, and the standard model of particle physics has been perfected.

　　But without phonon, all this would not have happened.

　　The concept of phonon is developed in the process of studying lattice vibration. Li Baowen, director of the Center for Phononics and Thermal Energy Science of Tongji University, once explained that phonons are not real particles, but quasi-particles, which are quantized lattice vibrations. It is called a phonon because the essence of "sound" is the "vibration" of an object. In fact, the Greek word for phonon means sound.

　　The name phonon was first put forward by Igor Tamm, a physicist in the former Soviet Union, in 1932. He pointed out that just as light corresponds to electrons, sound waves can be associated with some particles we call "phonons". In solids, especially in semiconductors and insulators, "heat" is conducted through lattice vibration, that is, "phonons" are carriers of heat.

　　At room temperature, phonons are quasi-particles, and the heat conduction of solid materials is mainly realized by phonons. But at extremely low temperature, these quasi-particles "incarnate" into a group of "cowboys", driving away the "cattle" composed of electrons. These electrons act uniformly, and their resistance is almost zero, which is the principle of low temperature superconductivity.

　　It is the huge electromagnetic field created by superconducting magnets that makes protons bend in the large circular orbit of LHC. In the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner, these superconducting magnets "transform" as a command, guiding oxygen atoms in human tissues to "dance" and releasing traceable radio signals. In addition, phonons also play an important role in the field of thermoelectric materials. These thermoelectric materials can convert thermal energy into electrical energy, and it is also expected to realize scientists’ dream of reusing waste heat from automobile engines to supply power for electronic products.

　　Magneton: the king of spin

　　Since Tam put forward the concept of "phonon", scientists have gradually found many such quasi-particles in solids. Another such particle originates from spin, a quantum property that is the basis of magnetism. Spin is like an arrow on an atom, pointing south or north; When all spins in matter are aligned, a magnetic field appears. However, when this spin state is constantly reversed, a wave effect is created, which scientists call "magnon".

　　Ordinary computers and smart phones need electricity to store information, but the information of equipment power failure cannot be obtained. If a magnon is used, the information storage will depend entirely on the magnetic field without electricity, which is called Spintronics. The advantage of this method is that it consumes little power — — Excessive power consumption is one of the main problems encountered in miniaturization of transistor chips. If the magnetic oscillator is controlled by electromagnetic waves, the computer can completely get rid of the shackles of wires and electricity.

　　Exciton: the secret weapon of plants

　　The earth gets more energy from the sun in an hour than all mankind consumes in a year. Plants play the role of energy catchers, and excitons are the "secret weapons" for plants to perform this task.

　　In any substance, electrons exist in different energy levels. When a photon strikes the surface of an object, it will excite electrons to a higher energy level, leaving a hole. Electrons are negatively charged and holes are positively charged. Under certain conditions, the Coulomb attraction between them will bind them together in space, so the complex formed is called excitons.

　　The leaves of plants contain light-trapping proteins, and the electrons in the light-trapping proteins will be excited to absorb photons and leave their positions, leaving a hole, electrons — Excitons formed by hole pairs will float around the photosynthesis production line of plants.

　　When excitons arrive at specific positions where they are needed, electrons recombine with holes and release energy, which plants use to decompose water into hydrogen and oxygen.

　　This photosynthesis is the root of life on earth, and human beings have been looking forward to simulating this reaction in solar cells. In 2013, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology found a way to "photograph" excitons directly, which took a key step towards the ultimate goal.

　　According to the online edition of Science magazine in 2009, Leonid Butov, a physics professor at the University of California, San Diego, and his colleagues have made several transistors based on excitons. These transistors are expected to become the basic modules of new computers, and the circuits assembled by them will become the first computing device using excitons in the world.

　　Mayorana Fermion: Quantum Hero

　　If you want to have a real multi-process computer, you can turn to a quantum computer for help. The quantum computer, which is still in its infancy, makes use of subtle and uncertain quantum states and can give multiple solutions to the same problem at the same time. As long as the external environment does not disturb the "magic" of the quantum computer, it can run stably.

　　Majorana quasiparticles can provide "qubits" for quantum operations, which makes quantum computers more powerful.

　　The information in an ordinary computer is stored in "bits", and each bit is coded as 0 or 1; Information bits in a quantum computer can exist as 0 and 1 at the same time, but this superposition state is very fragile. For this reason, physicists have been looking for ways to make qubits more stable.

　　In 1930s, Italian theoretical physicist ettore majorana predicted that there must be a particle, which is the same as its antiparticle. The concept of "majorana particle" was born. It has no mass and no charge. It is its own antiparticle and always appears in pairs. Because of its special properties, majorana particles are electrically neutral and rarely interact with the environment, so it becomes an ideal carrier for quantum information coding.

　　Since majorana particles always appear in pairs, which means that there are two copies of the information they contain, theoretically speaking, majorana qubits are more tolerant to external noise. However, according to Attila Geresdi of QuTech Institute in the Netherlands, these qubits exist in the background of huge electronic effects, and it is very tricky to extract the information of majorana quasiparticles.

　　In June this year, the research team of Jia Jinfeng of Shanghai Jiaotong University wrote in the Physical Review Express that they had successfully captured the Mayorana fermion in the laboratory through a special artificial film composed of topological insulator materials and superconductor materials, which not only contributed to the development of quantum computers, but also helped to further uncover the mystery of dark matter.

　　Wilfermion: Double-faced Jiaowa

　　"Weyl fermions" are like shy "cousins" of electrons. In 1929, the German scientist H. Weyl proposed that there is a kind of electron with no "mass" and can be divided into two different "chirality" of left-handed and right-handed, and this electron is called "Wilfermion".

　　The fermion has two key characteristics: massless and chiral. The lack of mass means that it can move at high speed, and at the same time, it is extremely resistant to interference that is inconsistent with its chirality, which makes it difficult to scatter: two different types of fermion streams can be close together without interaction. It has been suggested that these properties can make it the basis of computers beyond spintronics computing power.

　　However, for more than 80 years, scientists have not observed the fermion in the experiment, and the semi-metallic materials with the characteristics of fermion have only recently appeared. On July 16, last year, Science magazine published the experimental results of the team of physicist Zaid Hassan of Princeton University. The team announced that they found "Waier Fermion" in "Waier Semimetal"; On July 20th, official website, Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, announced that the research team led by Fang Zhong, a researcher from the Institute, had successfully discovered the Verfermion in TaAs crystal for the first time. Therefore, the era of "Weyl Weyltronics" has appeared on the horizon, but there is still a long way to go.

Re-opening of Spring Festival in 2023： The high-quality market of scheduled films shows a recovery trend.

Special feature of 1905 film network According to the preliminary statistics of the National Film Bureau, the total box office of the Spring Festival in 2023 was 6.758 billion yuan, setting a new record for the second box office of the Spring Festival in film history. Six films covered suspense, science fiction, comedy, animation and other topics, and presented audiences with one Spring Festival feast after another. With a box office score of 2.606 billion yuan, it led the Spring Festival with a harvest of 2.164 billion yuan, followed closely. What are the different features of this year’s Spring Festival? What about other films in the same period?

The Spring Festival in 2023 ended perfectly, and several films can be said to have their own points of view, with a total box office of 6.758 billion yuan. Liu Zhenfei, a data analyst of Cat’s Eye Research Institute, started from the market data and analyzed which data are worthy of attention and resumption: "The announcement period and pre-sale period of the Spring Festival this year are relatively tight, showing a trend of backward alignment or long-term announcement. The box office of 1.35 billion yuan on the first day of this year reached the level of previous years, but it can only rank fourth in the Spring Festival file in history. By the end of the schedule, it has ranked second in the history of the schedule, indicating that from the first day to the sixth day, the box office trend is more stable. This year’s Spring Festival file can achieve this more stable trend. On the one hand, the audience is constantly returning to the cinema, on the other hand, the overall film is better. "

This year’s Spring Festival movies are not only diversified in types, but also different in the duration of a single film. Among them, the head film Wandering Earth 2 lasted for three hours, and Manjianghong also lasted for two and a half hours. According to the box office weight, the average duration of this year’s Spring Festival movies is as long as 150 minutes. Compared with previous years, the longest duration of movies is about 130 minutes. As a direct result, the number of national screenings will definitely drop. From the data point of view, the number of movies this year is less than that in previous years, but the total number of people watching movies this year continues to increase, whether the length of time is increased or the number of movies is decreased.

The audience will not only pay attention to the type and duration of the film, but also pay attention to the ticket price. The average ticket price this year is 52.3 yuan, which is the first time that the ticket price has been lowered for seven consecutive years. Spring Festival is a popular consumption schedule that is in short supply, especially under the premise that the operation of cinemas in the past three years is not ideal, the price increase of the schedule is also within the audience’s understanding. However, this year’s Spring Festival stalls may be influenced by the negative comments on the price increase of last year’s Spring Festival stalls, or because of the pursuit of allowing profits to welcome guests, but the fare has been lowered, and this move is also conducive to the audience to enter the theater for consumption. According to the data, this year’s low-frequency movie users have improved significantly compared with last year; For high-frequency movie users, the proportion of ticket purchases has also increased slightly compared with the past. It can be said that this year’s Spring Festival file has made the film market show a thriving recovery trend because of the benefits of welcoming guests and the richer types of film supply.

Before the Spring Festival, many people would predict the situation of each film. In previous years, there was often a situation of one super and many strong, but this year was very special. Wandering Earth 2 and Manjianghong went hand in hand in the past few days, and you chased me and there was a situation of "two heroes standing side by side". Liu Zhenfei mentioned: "This situation is really rare. In the past, it was said that the counter-attack of the schedule or the birth of the dark horse all started from the low position and rushed to the high position, or fell down because of word of mouth, forming a big deficit. This year is different, "Man Jiang Hong" is gradually improving, and "Wandering Earth 2" has basically not dropped much, and there is such a so-called "dual-core drive" that goes hand in hand. "

In this situation, users of high-frequency movies will choose to have them all, while users of low-frequency movies will choose to watch either the hottest movie or the best one, which is reflected in the previous slots. No matter how much the total box office is, the audience’s flow or the bonus of the slots must be concentrated on the individual movies in the head, and the slots have been improved as a whole, but the capacity has not been improved.

This year’s "Wandering Earth 2" and "Man Jiang Hong", first, the audience is very different. The audience of "Wandering Earth 2" is mostly elderly or male, including those in first-and second-tier cities; The opening of "Man Jiang Hong" will be biased towards women or sink into the market, and then it will flow to large-scale users. From the genre point of view, one of the two films is more large-scale production and big scenes, and the other one has achieved layer-by-layer inversion and endless jokes in the plot, which has produced a good form of distinguishing the audience from the temperament. It can be said that one is literary and one is martial, which absorbs different audiences and finally forms a win-win situation that keeps pace with each other.

Under the premise of quantity, the types of this year’s Spring Festival stalls are very diverse, with as many as 11 types. Liu Zhenfei said: "Judging from the different types of films in this year’s Spring Festival, there are also some differences in urban areas across the country. For example, first-and second-tier cities will be more concentrated, such as Northeast China and North China, and the most prominent is "Man Jiang Hong"; In the southern region, it may be biased towards such fantasy animation, such as Wandering Earth 2, which will be biased towards some areas in East China and South China. Therefore, the richness of the types of Spring Festival files is also a different movie-watching map formed throughout the country, and audiences all over the country will choose a movie they really like. "

Therefore, the box office performance of this year’s Spring Festival file really gave all film practitioners a shot in the arm. Next, there will be a relay release of films. Behind the brilliant achievements of this year’s Spring Festival, we can find that the third and fourth lines have sunk into the market and returned to the market very quickly. Compared with the past few years, the whole trend of returning home has taken shape again.

In 2018 and 2019, the box office peak of audience in third-and fourth-tier cities reached around the third grade, and then slowly fell back; This year, it was not only on the first day of New Year’s Day, but also on the third day of the following year, the third-and fourth-tier cities reached the high point again, which played a timely supplementary role in the Spring Festival stalls. From the market point of view, it was the tide of returning home that brought the biggest benefits to the Spring Festival stalls.

With the popularity of movies, whether it’s "When the Wind Comes Again" or "China Ping-Pong’s Jedi Fight Back", there are still many popularity movies to be released in the future movie market. What can attract the audience to the cinema continuously is that these popularity movies are released every week, so as to train moderate and heavy fans to enter the cinema frequently, which has a regulating effect on the whole market and is a benign development for the cultivation of the schedule.

People’s Forum Online Comment ｜ Strive to be a good youth in the new era on the track of realizing national rejuvenation

　　Youth is the most active and dynamic force in the whole social force, the hope of the country lies in youth, and the future of the nation lies in youth. At the celebration of the centenary of the founding of the Communist Youth League of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that the Communist Youth League should "unite and lead the youth of its members to grow into good young people with ideals, courage to take responsibility, endurance and willingness to struggle". This is not only the ardent expectation of the party and the country for the future development of the vast number of young people, but also the unshakable common goal of young people in the new era in the process of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

　　Ideal is the spiritual pillar of good youth in the new era.Ideals and beliefs are the foundation of spirit and the source of strength. Only by establishing lofty ideals and strengthening their ideals and beliefs can young people in the new era move forward bravely in the right direction on the road of youth. Ideals are divided into personal ideals and common ideals. Every youth is an independent individual, and it is common that there are differences in personal ideals such as career choice and life goals. At the same time, they are in the social reality relationship, which requires that personal ideals be closely linked with the common ideals of the country and the nation and make due contributions to the cause of the party and the country. First, we must strengthen our Marxist faith. Marxism is a powerful ideological weapon to guide China’s continuous success. Young people in the new era should learn Marxist theory, master Marxist research methods and consciously use Marxism to guide practice. The second is to strengthen the lofty ideal of communism. Realizing communism is the highest ideal and ultimate goal of communist party people, and it is a long development process, which needs the relay of generations of young people. Third, we should strengthen Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s common ideal, build a socialist modern country on the basis of building a well-off society in an all-round way, and believe that the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation will be realized. Young people’s lofty ideals and firm beliefs are the invincible driving force for a country and a nation. In the course of a hundred years, the majority of youth league members and party member can "hide their eyes from the clouds" and maintain their resilience of "being tough after thousands of blows". In the final analysis, it lies in the strong support of ideals and beliefs. Nothing can be achieved in the world without a will.Young people in the new era should be ambitious, build a solid foundation of ideals and beliefs, integrate their personal "ego" into the "ego" of the motherland, unite their powerful forces with firm ideals, and strive to open up a new journey of national rejuvenation.

　　Dare to take responsibility is the historical mission of good young people in the new era.A generation has a long March, and a generation has the responsibility of a generation. During the period of the new-democratic revolution, young people started their ideological awakening and fought for national independence and people’s liberation without hesitation; During the period of socialist revolution and construction, young people actively participated in social changes and did not hesitate to devote themselves to the great cause of building the motherland; In the new period of reform, opening up and socialist modernization, young people dare to venture and do things, and they are desperate to run on the wave of innovation and reform; Young people in the new era in Socialism with Chinese characteristics consciously shoulder the historical responsibility and strive to realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. History and the times have entrusted the vast number of young people with different responsibilities and missions. Based on the new era and new journey, the goal and direction of China youth can be summed up in one point, that is, unswervingly listening to and following the Party, and striving to grow into a new person of the times who can shoulder the heavy responsibility of national rejuvenation. Young people in the new era should not only dare to take responsibility, but also be able to take responsibility. On the one hand, they should practice excellent skills, arm their minds with rich theories, exercise their abilities in practice and demonstrate their solid talents. On the other hand, we should maintain a healthy body, which is the capital of the revolution. We should civilize its spirit and savage its body, so as to provide continuous strength for realizing great dreams. Today’s world is in a great change that has never happened in a hundred years, and China is also in a critical period to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. As the main force of China’s development, young people are faced with the mission of the times that "the sky will drop to the people of Sri Lanka". They are in the forefront of the fight against the epidemic, setting a new historical record in the Winter Olympics, showing China’s charm on the world stage and vividly interpreting "Please rest assured that the party and the country have me. China’s young people live in prosperous times and shoulder heavy responsibilities. Only when they are ambitious, wise, talented and responsible can they live up to their youth, the times and the people.

　　Being able to bear hardships is the tough character of good young people in the new era.Difficulties and hardships, jade is successful. Today’s beautiful life is the result of countless ancestors’ arduous and long-term struggles. During the 25,000-mile long March, they climbed snow-capped mountains and crossed grasslands. During the 14-year Anti-Japanese War, they risked their lives and were not afraid of strong enemies. In the early days of the founding of New China, they kept their feet on the ground and worked hard … … Gradually formed the spirit of China, such as the spirit of the Long March, the spirit of Hongqiqu, the spirit of "two bombs and one satellite" and the spirit of manned space flight. Contemporary young people should deeply understand and inherit the fine traditions and precious qualities of being able to endure hardships, because hardships can temper a person’s will. Compared with the past, young people in the new era have superior material conditions and living environment, which is an important period of life development. If they choose to suffer, they choose to gain. First of all, to be able to suffer from learning, we should not passively accept book knowledge, but be good at independent innovation learning, enrich theoretical knowledge, enhance core literacy, and bravely climb scientific peaks. Secondly, we should be able to suffer from practice, go to places where countries need it, such as the grass-roots front line, measure the land of the motherland with our feet, discover the spirit of China with our eyes, listen to people’s voices with our ears, and feel the pulse of the times with our hearts. Finally, we should learn to "ask for it". Being content with the status quo is the greatest danger in life. Young people should show the courage to start all over again and consciously take "suffering" as a lofty value pursuit. "The sword front comes from sharpening, and the plum blossom fragrance comes from bitter cold."Dare to endure hardship, be willing to endure hardship and be good at it are compulsory courses for young people to grow up, and also necessary ways to hone their will and cultivate their feelings in national rejuvenation.

　　Willing to struggle is the action of good young people in the new era.Struggle has always been the action guide of the Chinese nation and the youth in China. From "we must make comrades continue to struggle hard" to "we must make up our minds to struggle for a long time", and then to "happiness comes from struggle" and "struggle itself is a kind of happiness", the Chinese nation has ushered in a great leap from standing up, becoming rich and becoming strong. The new era provides a broad practical stage for helping young people struggle, and the first youth development plan in the history of New China has been issued, and a colorful platform for voluntary service and innovative practice has been built, so that every young person can enjoy the opportunity to shine in life. Struggle is the most beautiful background of youth, and action is the most effective tempering of youth. We should follow the struggle direction of the party and the country with practical actions, integrate the youth struggle into the cause of the party and the people, and March courageously toward the Chinese dream of realizing the goal of the second century and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We should strive for dedication in ordinary posts, strive to take root at the grassroots level, serve the people, do every job in a down-to-earth manner, create extraordinary things in the ordinary, and create brilliance in the struggle. We should always cherish the spirit of striving for self-improvement, and shape the great spirit of struggle in the new era on the road of Do not forget your initiative mind’s vigorous youth. Now, youth is used to struggle; In the future, youth will be used for memories. In the new era, young people in China are the vanguard forces to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We should use our youthful self to create a youthful China and a youthful nation.

　　In the new era, young people in China are in the best period of the development of the Chinese nation. We should cherish the present, stir up the surging spring tide of national rejuvenation with the energy and creativity of youth, and strive for a better China with the wisdom and sweat of youth!

Meteorological heat index sends out small ＂shade＂

Source: China Meteorological News Agency　　
Release date: July 29, 2010 at 10:56

Intern reporter of China Meteorological News Sun Nan Anjia

　　Hot! With the arrival of the dog days, the high temperature in the whole country has come back again. On July 26th, the Beijing Meteorological Observatory issued the yellow warning signal of high temperature again. The citizens in Beijing complained: "The highest temperature in the weather forecast is only 35℃, but it feels like it is almost catching up with the high temperature of 40℃ a few weeks ago!"

　　Why is there always a gap between the temperature people feel and the temperature predicted by the meteorological department? Is the data monitored in the louver box discounted to the temperature?

Record the history of air temperature

The standard temperature is measured in the louver.

　　Taking the pulse for the sky is a scientific and rigorous work. Li Xiaoquan, the chief expert of China Weather Network and former director of the Central Meteorological Observatory, told us that there are strict standards for the setting of louver boxes, which are set according to the regulations of the World Meteorological Organization and the norms of meteorological observation.

　　The thermometer should be erected at a height of 1.5 meters from the ground and installed in a louver box with ventilation on six sides. It should not only ensure that it can communicate with the outside air, but also ensure that it will not be excessively affected by the wind, and at the same time avoid direct sunlight. In addition, the environment around the louver box also has strict requirements. It is internationally unified that the observation field must be empty and flat, and there should be no trees and tall buildings around it, and it should be placed on the lawn with a thickness of no more than 20 cm.

　　Only in this way can we ensure that the global meteorological observation data are representative, accurate and comparative, facilitate the global sharing of temperature data, correctly analyze the changes of weather systems and provide reliable weather forecasting services.
Every day, at a fixed time, observers should observe the temperature of the louver. Stations that switch to automatic meteorological observation will also regularly transmit observation data to forecasters for weather analysis and forecast.

　　Li Xiaoquan said that the temperature forecast mentioned in the weather forecast refers to the forecast of air temperature. The air temperature is very local, which is related to altitude and surrounding environment. Human activities are generally at the height of 1 meter to 2 meters. Therefore, the air temperature in the 1.5-meter-high louver box can reflect the real atmospheric situation of the human activity layer, which represents the undisturbed standard air temperature in the natural state.

Different feelings under the same sky

The difference of somatosensory temperature caused by many influences

　　The somatosensory temperature refers to the temperature that people feel. Due to the differences of regions, environments and individuals, there is a gap between the somatosensory temperature and the actual temperature.

　　There are many factors that affect the somatosensory temperature. Li Xiaoquan thinks that the most important factors that make people feel the temperature difference are relative humidity and wind power.

　　When the temperature is high and the humidity is high, the sweat on the skin surface cannot evaporate well, so the heat dissipation efficiency of the human body is low, and the somatosensory temperature is higher than the actual temperature. So even in the hot weather of 35℃, as long as the humidity is low, you will feel dry and not too uncomfortable. However, in most cities in the south and in the rainy season in the north, the relative humidity will reach more than 80%. At this time, as long as the temperature exceeds 32℃, the human body will feel sultry and unbearable.

　　Wind, like a huge fan, virtually accelerates the flow of air, and can quickly take away sweat from human skin, making people feel as if the temperature has dropped. In addition, the influence of solar radiation is also very obvious. Under the same temperature, humidity and wind speed, the temperature difference between sunlight and the somatosensory temperature in the shade can be 4℃ to 6℃.

　　The somatosensory temperature also varies from person to person: people in different regions feel different. Indian tourists who are used to the high temperature of 45℃ will not feel very hot when they come to China to see the Expo, but tourists from cold northern Europe are hard to adapt. Even in the same area, the feelings of the elderly and children will be very different. Even two adults in the same area will feel different when standing in the sun. Physical condition, clothes color, skin color and even good or bad mood can affect people’s feeling of temperature. As the saying goes, "being calm and naturally cool" is a good portrayal of the influence of people’s emotions on somatosensory temperature.

　　In the new round of high temperature, the public clearly felt the difference between the somatosensory temperature and the real temperature, and some people started the experiment of frying eggs with manhole covers. Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack. Under the direct sunlight, the asphalt road was baked with oil. Some people took out a thermometer to measure the ground temperature, which actually reached 70℃ to 90℃. Many netizens suspected that not predicting the road temperature was for fear of unnecessary panic caused by excessive temperature.

　　In this regard, Li Xiaoquan explained that the temperature should be representative, and the temperature of different underlying surfaces is different. It is a universal standard method to observe the ground temperature by burying the thermometer half in the soil. The meteorological department has a record of monitoring the surface temperature, but predicting the ground temperature in summer has little practical significance for citizens’ travel activities. Regardless of the ground temperature, people should choose to walk with shoes.

Thermal index forecast for weather "cooling down"

Humanized service reminds people of sun protection and heatstroke prevention

　　Meteorology affects all kinds of human activities everywhere. As people pay more and more attention to meteorology, the task before meteorologists is not only to talk to the sky, but also to talk to people.

　　Li Xiaoquan believes that meteorological departments in various regions should provide the forecast of somatosensory temperature index according to local people’s living habits, topography and landforms, not necessarily as accurate as the live temperature, but at least should distinguish grades. "I think the weather forecast in the future will tell people whether the weather tomorrow will be dry, comfortable and hot, sultry or very sultry, not just the dry’ maximum temperature of 35℃’."

　　At this year’s World Expo, the heat index forecast of the Expo site, which has been prepared for nearly a year, was launched on Shanghai Weather Online in many languages. Thermal index forecast of Expo site: Shanghai model 34, German model 39, Hong Kong model 33 … Shanghai Meteorological Bureau introduced internationally famous thermal index forecast models. This thermal index forecast product is released regularly twice a day.

　　Geng Fuhai, head of the Urban Environment Center of Shanghai Meteorological Bureau, said that the thermal index is an index describing human comfort. Use the thermal index calculation models of various countries to calculate the possible somatosensory temperatures of people in various countries. For example, the actual temperature is 33℃, the Shanghai model shows a thermal index of 34, the American model shows a thermal index of 120, and Americans know that it is 120 degrees Fahrenheit at a glance.

　　Ms Guan, a tourist visiting the Expo from Anhui, said: "The introduction of the heat index is very humanized. Although the weather has been sultry for several days, I feel very happy when I go online to see the meteorological service in the Expo Park before going out every morning."

　　"Although the thermal index has been launched, the relevant verification issues are still being discussed internationally. The somatosensory temperature is influenced by personal factors, and everyone has differences, so the operation of this model is difficult to be accurately verified. " Yan Fuhai said.

　　Tang Xu, director of the Shanghai Meteorological Bureau, also said that the meteorological forecast service is not only the Expo meteorological service, but also provides the internationally accepted standard temperature forecast, and also provides various refined products according to the needs of various units in the city and the feelings of pedestrians on the road. Tang Xu said: "our work should keep pace with the times and meet the needs of the broad masses of the people. This is the direction of our efforts. Meteorological standards should be adhered to, but follow-up services should also be strengthened. "　　　

　　Weather can also make life better. "People-oriented" is not only the ruling idea, but also the proper meaning of the meteorological department’s continuous improvement of public service level. Just as Li Xiaoquan said, under the premise of doing a good job of live temperature forecast, the forecast of somatosensory temperature index can make meteorological services icing on the cake.

It takes internal strength to stabilize this bowl of mala Tang.

Tianshui is on fire! Accompanied by the red pepper running from the nose to the brain, the string of "bouquets" in hand and the boiling soup pot bottom, Tianshui attracted thousands of netizens in front of the screen to fly and take the high-speed train to come here and experience the "YOLO" for themselves.

A bowl of mala Tang makes a city with fire. The sudden explosion of fire, netizens have shouted Tianshui Wenlv: "You have to catch this wealth!" This time, the Tianshui municipal government also focused on "listening to persuasion", and started the "pet powder mode" with the actions of the whole city: painting the walls overnight, opening the Mala Tang bus line, picking up foreign tourists free of charge at airports and stations, and holding a special meeting on Mala Tang service guarantee, so as to do a good job in health protection without dead ends … The effective experience accumulated by the predecessor "online celebrity City", Tianshui people took out all the "Tao Xin Wo Zi", just to keep this hard-won. According to the data, as of March 14th, the popularity of tourism search in Tianshui increased by 186% in the past week. According to the data from Meituan and the public, from March 16th to March 17th, the advance booking volume of Tianshui’s tourism consumption (including hotels and lodging, classic tickets, transportation, etc.) increased by about 18 times year-on-year. Since the "out of the circle" of Tianshui Mala Tang, the overall order volume of Tianshui Wenlv Market has increased by 40% year-on-year.

From the smell of "Zi" last year to the feeling of "Bin" at the beginning of this year, and today’s "Mala Tang" in Tianshui, the siphon effect triggered by the cultural tourism market has made all cities deeply feel the powerful empowerment role provided by the cultural tourism industry for urban development. However, looking at these "fire out of the circle" cities, we can turn "flow" into "reserve", which is ultimately inseparable from hard work and accumulation.

As the saying goes, one side of the soil and water raises one side. The local grass, trees, bricks and tiles are condensed with rich historical background and unique customs, which can not be replaced by anyone or anything. Just as the local products Longnan pepper and Gangu pepper, which make Tianshui explode, have made this bowl of mala Tang the essence. What attracts tourists to Tianshui is not only this bowl of mala Tang, but also the lonely smoke in the desert, Maijishan Grottoes and Fuxi Nuwa’s "Poetry and Distance".

In this sense, if you want to win the initiative in regional development, you need to tap regional characteristics according to local conditions, expand service projects according to the situation, and strive to create your own "highlight moment." We should actively build a catalytic holographic service system. Through a series of explosive cultural tourism projects, we will create high-quality and cost-effective services, trigger the deepening and extension of urban awareness and recognition, and realize the promotion and optimization of multi-format services such as talents, business and investment. We should actively cultivate local characteristic brands and expand brand influence. Carefully build "time-honored brands", launch unique public brands of local products, build a modern commercial core area with "both prosperity and fireworks", and stimulate potential consumption. It is necessary to keep up with market changes, closely follow the needs of tourists, further optimize the tourism environment, scientifically formulate marketing strategies, boldly innovate marketing methods, make products more "aligned", make demand more "in place" and let "small resources" trigger "big effects".

How did the short video kill your time？

18 years is a year of short video explosion, and many users will have a feeling that they can’t stop when watching short videos. So how exactly did short videos kill your time?

If 2016 is the outlet of live broadcast and bike-sharing, 2017 is the outbreak period of short video. Time has entered 18 years, and the popularity of short videos has become more and more prosperous.

The familiar short video players: Tik Tok, Watermelon Video, Volcano Video and Aauto Quicker are among the top ten in the industry.

I believe that every user who watches short videos has had this feeling: I just watch two … and then slip away in half an hour. How did the short video, known as the "time killer", kill your time and make it disappear unconsciously?

In this regard, individuals have the following ideas:

Since the outbreak of mobile internet, recommendation system is not a new word. Providing users with his favorite content is what recommendation system is good at! For example, today’s headline machine recommendation information flow, Netease Cloud Music’s magical song list recommendation … It will make you have a dedicated service experience, so that users can’t stop using the APP.

Combined with the psychological flow effect, we can see the magic more clearly.

Flow: In psychology, it is a kind of psychological state when you concentrate on a certain behavior, and entering this state will make people feel happy.

When you are immersed in the glory of the king qualifying, when you are still reluctant to leave the TV screen at one or two in the morning, you are in a flow.

In this state, you don’t want to be disturbed, that is, you resist interruption. It’s like you will keep starting games and watch TV series episode after episode, as if you can’t control yourself. In fact, your brain doesn’t want to control yourself to stop.

Combining the two, the recommendation system pushes your favorite content and updates it constantly. You don’t want to stop sliding your finger when you enter the flow state. In the short video of 15s, you unconsciously brush it until 2 o’clock in the middle of the night …

With the development of technology, information is carried from words to pictures, to videos, and then to live broadcasts. You will find that:The improvement of information carrying mode has a subtle influence on your brain.

Although words, pictures and videos can explain the facts, but:

The form of words will bring people more imagination space after extension. After words enter the brain, it will take some time to be translated to understand (although it may only take a few seconds).
Compared with words, pictures are a more intuitive expression method, which objectively shows the facts in a shorter time, but as a static display, there is still some room for imagination;
Video and live broadcast are one step closer. What you see is what you get. The imagination space is further compressed, the content of objective expression is enriched, and the human brain can directly receive more information, which can be understood without the second translation of the brain.

The live broadcast was a hit in 2016, and I personally understand that this has the same reason. As a recorded video, the live broadcast form gives people a more intuitive feeling of time and space, but the live broadcast also has a short board because of real-time, and users are not free all the time. If you miss the time, it will lose its meaning.

With the increasing fragmentation time of users, short videos have become the best channel for users to enjoy themselves. Short-term entertainment, easy-to-understand content, this experience will make the brain addicted and easier to immerse itself in.

Personally, this situation can be explained by a law in Thinking, Fast and Slow:

Rule of Least Effort: If there are many ways to achieve the same goal, people will often choose the simplest one.

After carefully studying the development, content tendency and product function of Tik Tok, it is found that its popular mode fits well with the addiction model mentioned in the book Addiction:

Tik Tok’s brand promotion, the forwarding and dissemination of wonderful short video content in social software, and the first stage of the addiction model cycle: trigger comes into play.

For whatever reason, when you click on the link to play, you have entered the second step of the addiction model cycle: action. Next, you will see all kinds of dazzling content.

The difference between the addiction model and the common feedback loop lies in that it can directly stimulate people’s strong desire for something, Tik Tok’s precise control in the content direction, and challenging the variability of gameplay, so that every time you slide, you can bring new surprise variables, and the brain excitement will continue to rise because of unexpected rewards, expecting to find more surprises.

In the last stage: input, not only means making users willing to spend money, but also means that users’ behavior can improve the subsequent service quality. Praise, attention, etc. are all the inputs paid by users to improve the product experience.

These inputs will have an impact on the first three stages. Triggers are easier to form, actions are easier to take place, and rewards will be more attractive.

Judging from the current analysis, short video, as a sharp weapon to kill time, seems to have stepped on the breakthrough points of two times: the development of technology and the outbreak of information. At the same time, the psychological nature of human beings since ancient times has been infinitely magnified by various means in this era. Is the outbreak of short videos really just accidental? I do not think this is necessarily the case.

At present, I have only analyzed the environmental and industrial factors, but not the in-depth product experience analysis. I believe that each product has its unique attraction to users, which is also a direction that I will study in depth in the future.

The above are some of my personal superficial ideas, and I hope to communicate with you.

(II) The events that occurred during the reporting period and seriously affected the company’s core competitiveness, impact analysis and countermeasures.

Fourth, risk factors

(A) Not yet profitable risk

(2) Risk of sharp decline in performance or loss

1. Risk of infringement of key core technologies or disclosure of technical secrets.

The company is committed to providing global customers with high-performance medical imaging equipment, radiotherapy products, life science instruments and medical digital and intelligent solutions. The product line covers magnetic resonance imaging system (MR), X-ray computed tomography system (CT), X-ray imaging system (XR), molecular imaging system (MI), radiotherapy system (RT) and life science instruments. Through more than ten years of continuous research and development, the company has mastered the core technologies related to the development and production of different product series, and protected the key core technologies by authorizing invention patents, technical secrets and signing confidentiality agreements with R&D personnel.

If the company’s key core technology is infringed or leaked, the output effect of the company’s R&D investment will be reduced, and the technological advantages of the company’s products will not be guaranteed continuously, which will adversely affect the company’s profit.

(4) Operational risks

1. Risk of business cooperation under distribution mode

The company mainly adopts the sales mode of combining distribution and direct sales. During the reporting period, the distribution income of the company’s main business was 5.954 billion yuan, accounting for 65.98% of the main business income. The steady growth of the company’s distribution income and the continuous expansion of the dealer network put forward higher requirements for the company’s distribution system management ability. The company needs to increase the number of sales management personnel, which increases the management cost of performance and payment of distribution contracts; At the same time, if the company can’t improve the management ability of dealers at the same time, once the dealers have their own management confusion, illegal behavior, or interest disputes between the company and dealers, it will have an adverse impact on the company’s distribution revenue growth.

In view of the above risks, the company continuously strengthens the system construction and capacity building of its own marketing team, improves the ability of professional salespeople and broadens the sales mode. In addition, the company has continuously improved the Dealer Management System, and systematically managed and assessed the dealer’s access qualification, classified management, cultivation and development, management and assessment. Due to the high professionalism of the high-end medical equipment industry, the company will regularly carry out sales training, risk management training and annual meetings, in which sales training includes company brand promotion and product knowledge;

Risk management training includes compliance guidance and compliance risk point training; The annual meeting includes industry development trend interpretation, new product release and company policy promotion, so as to realize long-term, stable and sustainable strategic integration with distributors.

2. Risks of international operation and business expansion

The company attaches great importance to the development and sales of high-end medical imaging diagnosis and radiotherapy products in overseas markets, and has achieved sales in the United States, Japan, Europe, Africa and Southeast Asia. During the reporting period, the company’s main business income overseas was 1.078 billion yuan (according to the statistics of the installed location of end customers), accounting for 11.94% of the company’s main business income, up by 110.83% year-on-year, and the overall trend kept increasing year by year.

However, different overseas markets and regions usually have different regulatory policies and regulations on medical devices, the international situation is uncertain, and the regulatory efforts on intellectual property protection, unfair competition and consumer protection are also different. With the further expansion of overseas business scale, the overseas legal environment involved by the company will be more complicated and changeable. If the company fails to respond to the changes in overseas market environment and policy environment in time, it will have an adverse impact on the company’s overseas business development and operation. The details are as follows:

(1) Policy and approval risks: In recent years, the international situation has been ups and downs, various uncertain and unstable factors have frequently occurred, the international trade environment has become increasingly complex, and trade friction disputes have continued. Geopolitical factors may have an adverse impact on the economy and trade of some countries or regions. Some countries have always had strong approval barriers for the licensing of high-end medical devices, and it takes a long time to complete product registration, which makes market access difficult. Different overseas markets and regions usually have different regulatory policies and regulations on medical devices, and there are uncertainties in the political and economic situation, as well as differences in the supervision of intellectual property protection, unfair competition and consumer protection.

(2) Market competition risk: GE Medical, Siemens Medical, Philips Medical and other companies have occupied a dominant position in many fields of medical equipment for many years, and have significant advantages in academic, clinical demonstration, customer awareness, global supply chain integration, product technology development, overseas after-sales service and brand influence. In the face of international market competition, if the company cannot maintain and continuously strengthen its own competitive advantage and core competitiveness, the market share and price of its products may decline due to intensified market competition.

(3) Risk of overseas sales channel expansion: In terms of the overall layout of overseas strategy, the company will promote the development of overseas business from the aspects of overseas product registration, team and network construction, production base and supply chain layout for the target market. By the end of the reporting period, the company has set up overseas teams through 14 overseas subsidiaries, but the overseas sales channels have been set up for a short time. If the company can’t effectively integrate the overseas sales teams and local distributor channels, the company’s products can’t open overseas markets quickly, which will adversely affect the company’s overseas market share and business development.

In view of the above risks, the company will comprehensively strengthen the management and layout of global R&D, production, sales, service and supply chain, make scientific decisions, promote the implementation of the company’s strategic planning and business layout in a reasonable and orderly manner, and further enhance the company’s brand influence and awareness in the international market through effective market activities and cooperation with Industry-University-Research Medical.

(V) Financial risks

1. Risk of tax policy change

The company and some of its subsidiaries are legally recognized high-tech enterprises, and they can enjoy the preferential income tax policies for high-tech enterprises when they meet all the conditions for enjoying the preferential tax policies for high-tech enterprises. In the future, if the above-mentioned preferential tax policies change or the company fails to meet the preferential tax conditions and cannot continue to enjoy the relevant preferential policies, the company’s tax burden will increase, which will have a certain impact on the company’s business operations. The company will continue to pay attention to the trend of tax policy, consolidate and strengthen its own R&D strength, continuously increase R&D investment, and consolidate the qualification recognition of high-tech enterprises.

2. Risk of exchange rate fluctuation

The company’s overseas business is growing rapidly, and the company and some overseas customers and suppliers use foreign currencies such as US dollars and euros for pricing and settlement. Due to factors such as changes in the international situation and environment, the difficulty of exchange rate risk management may increase in the future, and exchange rate fluctuations will directly affect the company’s exchange gains and losses, which may have a certain impact on the company’s business operations. The company attaches great importance to exchange rate risk management, takes both short-term and medium-and long-term measures, and rationally uses financial and operational methods to deal with exchange rate fluctuation risks.

3. Risk of loss of inventory depreciation reserve

With the rapid growth of the company’s business scale, the company’s inventory scale has increased. If there are major changes in the market environment and intensified market competition risks in the future, some of the company’s inventories may face risks such as backlog, damage and impairment, which may increase the risk of provision for inventory depreciation and may have a certain impact on the company’s operating performance. In the future, the company will improve the accuracy of demand forecasting, the scientificity of inventory planning, and implement more efficient and reasonable inventory management system to deal with the possible loss risk of inventory depreciation reserve in the future.

(VI) Industry risks

1, the market competition risk

According to the consulting research report, the market size of medical imaging equipment in China has exceeded 50 billion yuan in 2020, with a compound growth rate of 12.4% from 2015 to 2020. Although building a "healthy China" has become a national strategy, the rapid expansion of China’s big health market, the construction of national medical centers, the construction of national regional medical centers, the improvement of the comprehensive capacity of county hospitals in the "Thousand Counties Project", and the publication of the Catalogue of Management of Large Medical Equipment Configuration License (2023) have all promoted the potential demand for medical imaging equipment, but the company is still facing a fierce market competition environment.

On the one hand, China’s high-end medical imaging equipment market has been monopolized by foreign-funded enterprises such as GE Medical, Siemens Medical and Philips Medical. In the high-end PET/CT, MR and CT products market, imported brands once occupied more than 90% of the market share. After more than ten years of development of domestic medical imaging equipment technology, the import substitution trend of domestic brands has become more and more obvious, and the market share of imported brands has shown a downward trend. However, by virtue of their brand advantages, channel advantages and technical advantages over the past years, imported manufacturers have On the other hand, the company is also facing the competition from domestic medical imaging equipment manufacturers, including (), Neusoft Medical, () and other domestic manufacturers actively deploy products in the fields of XR, CT, MR and PET/CT, and constantly increase their efforts to explore the medical imaging equipment market. In the face of the above-mentioned domestic and foreign brands’ competition, if the company cannot maintain and continuously strengthen its own competitive advantage and core competitiveness, the market share and price of its products may decline due to intensified market competition.

In view of the above risks, the company will continue to strengthen core technology research and investment in next-generation products, and timely judge market trends and demand; Guided by cost management, product quality management and service quality management, the company pays attention to the quality requirements of the whole life cycle of products; The company will carry out talent reserve, technology reserve, product reserve and customer expansion on a global scale, deepen the international strategic layout and enhance the global market competitiveness.

2. Industry regulatory risks

The company’s medical imaging diagnosis and radiotherapy products are mainly used for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. According to the Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Medical Devices, they belong to the second and third categories of medical devices, that is, medical devices with moderate risks that need strict control and management to ensure their safety and effectiveness, and medical devices with high risks that need special measures to strictly control and manage to ensure their safety and effectiveness. The company’s R&D, production and sales of the above-mentioned products must strictly implement the national supervision and management system in the field of medical devices, including classification management system, production filing and licensing system, product filing and registration management system and business filing and licensing management system. If the requirements for the registration and application of medical devices are raised in the future, the supervision on the production and operation of medical devices will become stricter, which will have an adverse impact on the development and registration of new products and the production and sales of existing products.

In view of the above risks, the company will continue to pay attention to relevant policy trends, actively participate in the formulation of medical industry standards, and consolidate and strengthen its own R&D management.

(VII) Macro-environmental risks

1. Trade frictions and geopolitical risks

In recent years, the international situation has been ups and downs, the international trade environment has become increasingly complex, and trade frictions and disputes have continued. Geopolitical factors may adversely affect the economic and trade of some countries or regions. In June 2018, the Office of the US Trade Representative issued a formal list of goods subject to tariffs, which will impose a 25% tariff on about 50 billion US dollars of goods imported from China, of which about 34 billion US dollars of goods will be subject to tariff increase measures from July 2018, and at the same time, about 16 billion US dollars of goods will be subject to tariff increase to solicit public opinions; In May 2019, the United States announced that it would impose tariffs on $200 billion of listed goods imported from China. According to the list of tariff increase published by the Office of the US Trade Representative, MR and CT products exported by the company to the United States are included in the scope of tariff increase goods; At the same time, China’s Customs Tariff Commission began to impose tariffs on some imported goods from the United States as a counter measure. Parts or materials used in the production of medical imaging equipment, such as X-ray tube components, superconducting wires and scintillation crystals, were included in the scope of tariffs imposed by China on imported goods from the United States, and were continuously and dynamically adjusted in the follow-up.

Therefore, some products exported by the company to the United States face the risk of decreasing market competitiveness due to tariff increase, while the adjustment of import tariff list may lead to the increase of the company’s procurement cost and have a certain adverse impact on the company’s net profit. If the Sino-US trade friction escalates further in the future, it will bring greater pressure on the profitability of the company’s export business to the United States.

In response to the above risks, the company will continue to track changes in trade policies. At the same time, actively promote the diversified layout of the international market, and disperse the risks brought by geopolitics. At the same time, continuously strengthen the exchange of international health systems, broaden the deep integration of Industry-University-Research doctors in the global industry, promote the localization of major markets in various regions, and consolidate the construction of production, sales and service systems.

V. Discussion and analysis of the company’s future development

(A) the industry pattern and trends

1. The global medical imaging and radiotherapy equipment market has grown rapidly and steadily.

The global aging population is increasing day by day, and people’s demand for prevention and health management of chronic diseases is gradually increasing. Global public health emergencies have made governments realize the importance and urgency of health system construction, and medical and health investment has further increased. According to the statistics of consulting data, it is estimated that the compound annual growth rate of China’s medical imaging equipment market will be 7.3% from 2020 to 2030. In 2030, the total market size of China’s imaging equipment and radiotherapy equipment will reach 114.8 billion yuan, and the global market size of medical imaging equipment and radiotherapy equipment is expected to reach 75.6 billion US dollars.

In China, industrialization, urbanization, aging population, changes in disease spectrum, ecological environment and lifestyle have brought a series of new challenges to the maintenance and promotion of health. The contradiction between the overall shortage of health service supply and the increasing demand is still outstanding, and the coordination between health field development and economic and social development needs to be strengthened. It is necessary to solve major and long-term problems related to health from the national strategic level. In May, 2022, the General Office of the State Council issued the National Health Plan of the 14th Five-Year Plan, which stated that "by 2025, the health and health system will be more perfect, and the basic medical and health system with China characteristics will be gradually improved", and demanded that "the quality of medical and health services will be continuously improved, the capacity of primary medical and health services will be continuously improved, the all-round and full-cycle health service system will be gradually improved, and the pattern of graded diagnosis and treatment will be gradually established".

(1) National Medical Center: integrate and innovate production and medicine, build a national medical peak, and jointly attack the "stuck neck" and "one foot at the door" technologies.

In 2021, the National Development and Reform Commission, the National Health and Wellness Commission, state administration of traditional chinese medicine and the National Bureau for Disease Control and Prevention (hereinafter referred to as the "four ministries and commissions") jointly issued the "Implementation Plan for the Construction of High-quality and Efficient Medical and Health Service System in the Tenth Five-Year Plan", which requires the deployment of several national medical centers to tackle major medical fields and frontier challenges, solve key core technical problems of "one foot at the door" and "sticking the neck", and join hands with national enterprises. Gather the essential resources of "medicine, learning, research, production and politics", establish a platform for clinical research transformation of medical devices and equipment and an innovative technology incubation base, and at the same time, appropriately configure large-scale medical equipment in advance, and build smart hospitals and major disease databases.

(2) Regional medical center: to build a regional medical highland and strengthen the overall construction of the new campus.

According to the plan, we will build national and provincial regional medical centers, build high-level hospital branches, branches and "one hospital with multiple districts", export high-quality medical resources, and promote the overall national and regional medical service level. Support high-level hospitals to build clinical diagnosis and treatment centers for difficult and complicated special diseases and rare diseases, and solve regional critical and severe diseases and difficult diseases. Focus on strengthening the purchase of medical equipment, informatization and scientific research platform construction, establishing telemedicine and education platform, and accelerating the intelligent transformation and upgrading of diagnosis and treatment equipment. National regional medical centers are required to cover all provinces. So far, four batches of 76 medical centers have been announced, and they are still being continuously planned to increase. At present, there are 120 provincial regional medical centers in the country, which has generated a large number of overall construction and equipment configuration requirements for new hospitals.

(3) County-level hospitals: the primary medical capacity will be upgraded, and the serious illness will not leave the county, and more than 1,000 county hospitals will be upgraded to level 3.

County-level hospitals should upgrade their standards and expand their capacity, build specialized centers for chest pain, stroke, trauma and respiration, comprehensive tumor treatment centers and chronic disease management centers, and improve the diagnosis and treatment capabilities of common and frequently-occurring diseases, as well as major diseases such as tumors, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in the county. Build a platform for medical treatment in the whole county, such as imaging, ECG and pathological diagnosis. On October 27, 2021, the General Office of the National Health and Wellness Commission issued the Work Plan for Improving the Comprehensive Capacity of County Hospitals in the "Thousand County Project" (2021-2025), proposing that by 2025, at least 1,000 county hospitals in China will reach the level of medical service capacity of tertiary hospitals, and then the list of the first batch of hospitals will reach 1,233, and many places will continue to increase. The goal is to make the county hospital become the gatekeeper of county medical health and the leader of resource traction integration through the overall construction, linking the county and urban and rural medical and health service systems, and achieving serious illness without leaving the county.

(4) Counties’ sub-centers: connecting the preceding with the following, and rural revitalization is the most important.

On February 23, 2023, the general offices of the General Office of the Central Committee of the CPC and the State Council issued the Opinions on Further Deepening Reform and Promoting the Healthy Development of Rural Medical and Health System, demanding that rural medical and health work be placed in an important position of rural revitalization, focusing on grassroots units, and accelerating the expansion and balanced distribution of high-quality medical and health resources in counties. Strengthen the standardization of community and township medical institutions, and improve the setting and equipment of clinical departments. Develop community hospitals and county sub-centers, select 1-2 primary medical institutions in each county according to the capacity level of secondary hospitals, build a rural telemedicine service system, promote remote consultation, appointment referral, internet follow-up, remote inspection, promote the application of artificial intelligence-assisted diagnosis configuration, and improve the digital and intelligent level of rural medical and health services.

(5) Construction of digital intelligent medical association/medical association: it will draw a huge market for digital intelligent overall solutions.

Various forms of medical associations will also be formed among medical institutions at all levels. The Opinions of the General Office of the State Council on Promoting the High-quality Development of Public Hospitals pointed out that in accordance with the grid layout management, a compact urban medical group led by top-three public hospitals and combined with multi-level medical institutions should be established to be responsible for the integrated and continuous medical services such as prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and health promotion of residents in the grid; In accordance with the principles of county-township integration and rural integration, we will actively develop a close county-level medical community led by county-level hospitals. The 14th Five-Year Plan of National Health Information issued by the National Health and Wellness Commission, the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the State Bureau of Disease Control requires the establishment of an information system with integrated management, operation and collaborative service, the creation of a digital intelligent medical community, the acceleration of the construction of basic health information infrastructure and the upgrading of the compact county medical community information system. Intensive construction of national health information platforms at all levels, supporting medical associations, sports and medical communities, will bring huge market opportunities to the overall solution of digital intelligence.

(6) Strategic upgrade of public health system: construction of public health center, national major infectious disease base and emergency rescue base.

In terms of public health, the "Implementation Plan for the Construction of High-quality and Efficient Medical and Health Service System in the Tenth Five-Year Plan" jointly issued by the four ministries and commissions requires the construction of a modern disease prevention and control system, and the construction of several national and regional public health centers based on high-level provincial CDC. All localities have followed suit to build city and county public health centers or improve infectious disease hospitals, and improve infrastructure and equipment; Layout and construction of national major infectious disease prevention and control bases, and renovation and upgrading of infectious disease prevention and treatment facilities and equipment, such as mobile CT, according to the principle of combining peacetime with emergency; The construction of national emergency medical rescue bases will be carried out nationwide by provinces, and information communication equipment, mobile operating rooms and mobile CT will be equipped. At the same time, the National Health Information Plan of the 14th Five-Year Plan jointly issued by the National Health and Wellness Commission, the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the State Bureau of Disease Control requires all localities to establish a coordinated regional infectious disease monitoring and early warning and emergency command information platform to enhance the early monitoring and early warning capabilities of infectious diseases and public health emergencies.

(7) Connotation construction of high-quality medical development: integration of diagnosis and treatment, clinical-scientific research-teaching linkage, calling for collaborative and innovative industrial strategic partners.

In addition to configuration upgrading, the theme of the times of high-quality development makes the medical service system pay more attention to connotation construction. The Opinions of the General Office of the State Council on Promoting the High-quality Development of Public Hospitals requires continuous improvement of the medical quality management system and standard system, and the homogenization level of medical services in public hospitals in different regions and levels; Strengthen basic and clinical research and promote the output of new technologies, new products, new schemes and new strategies for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of original diseases; Promote multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment mode, and create integrated diagnosis and treatment, full chain service; Innovative medical and preventive coordination; Strengthen information support and promote the research and development and application of intelligent medical equipment and intelligent auxiliary diagnosis and treatment systems such as surgical robots; And improve operation management, personnel training and so on. The development mode of public hospitals has changed from a single purchase of equipment and ward building to a strategic, comprehensive, long-term, meticulous and high-quality development and planning. Medical institutions are no longer seeking simple equipment suppliers and service providers, but partners for common development and growth.

(8) China’s characteristic integrated medical and health service system: top-level design, regional overall planning, and opening up a new grand plan for healthy China.

Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s medical and health service system will be further improved. On March 23, 2023, the General Offices of the General Office of the Central Committee of the CPC and the State Council issued the Opinions on Further Improving the Medical and Health Service System, demanding that by 2025, the medical and health service system will be further improved, the balance of resource allocation and services will be gradually improved, the ability of prevention and control, treatment and emergency response of major diseases will be significantly enhanced, the development of Chinese and Western medicine will be more coordinated, and the construction of orderly medical treatment and diagnosis and treatment system will achieve positive results. By 2035, an integrated medical and health service system with complete system, clear division of labor, complementary functions, continuous coordination, efficient operation and resilience will be formed. Around this top-level design, the overall regional health planning and medical institution setting planning are carried out, and the construction and development of medical and health service system are coordinated. Under the background of regional medical care and even national medical care, it will create favorable conditions for participating in market competition under the guidance of the company’s integrated layout of diagnosis and treatment, equipment informationization, localized agile response and open innovation.

With the implementation of the above-mentioned policies at all levels, the construction of hospitals in various regions and types of the country will be further promoted, and the demand for the construction of medical diagnosis and treatment capabilities and service capabilities will be fully released, which will further drive the allocation of large-scale medical equipment, information programs and services.

Looking at the world, global medical health still faces a series of problems: First, the global aging problem is prominent. According to the report on population aging released by the U.S. Census Bureau, it is estimated that by 2050, the proportion of people over 65 years old in the total population will be as high as 17%, with about 1.6 billion people, which will bring about a continuous increase in medical demand in the future; Second, the number of patients with chronic diseases is increasing dramatically. According to the statistics of the World Health Organization, the number of people who die from chronic non-communicable diseases is as high as 41 million each year, accounting for 71% of the total deaths in the world, and the number of people who die from cardiovascular diseases is the largest, with about 17.9 million people each year, which puts forward higher requirements for continuous scientific and technological innovation and medical resources investment; Third, high-quality medical resources are insufficient and unevenly distributed. The surge of medical demand brought by global public health events is making medical staff in many countries run at high load, so it is urgent to improve the intelligence level and accessibility of high-end equipment and the popularity of telemedicine information platform. Fourth, there are still shortcomings in the public health system. Public health incidents have exposed that the global health system has strategic development space to make up for shortcomings, so as to ensure the stability of medical service supply in case of major public health incidents; Fifth, the level of digital intelligence of diagnosis and treatment equipment is still not enough, so it is difficult to improve the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment, bring better therapeutic effect and meet the needs of ultra-early screening and diagnosis of major diseases. In order to solve the above problems, the accessibility of high-end medical technology needs to be strengthened, and continuous technological innovation breakthroughs will help high-end technology sink and help the health of a wider range of people. At the same time,The traditional large-scale diagnosis and treatment equipment also needs to be upgraded in order to speed up the processing of image information, improve the accuracy of information processing, and meet the needs of ultra-early diagnosis of major diseases, thus further improving the efficiency of medical services and bringing better treatment results. In addition, governments in various countries and regions have begun to pay more attention to regional coordination and public health system construction, so as to ensure the homogeneity of service capacity and service effect of medical institutions in the region, gradually improve the level of primary medical services, and ensure the stability of pre-medical service supply in case of major public health incidents. These will continue to drive the continuous expansion of the global medical imaging market.

In order to meet the above challenges, more attention will be paid to strengthening the accessibility of high-end medical technology, upgrading the digital intelligence of traditional large-scale diagnosis and treatment equipment, regional coordination and the construction of public health system. The synergy of these factors will continue to drive the continuous expansion of the global medical imaging and information market.

In March 2021, the European Parliament voted to adopt a new health plan-EU4Health. The plan plans to fund 5.1 billion euros to support relevant activities of EU countries, WHO and non-governmental organizations, ensure the availability and accessibility of high-quality medical services and medical devices, promote the development of digital health and disease prevention, strengthen public health safety protection capabilities, and promote sustainable innovation in the field of health. In Latin America, where the population density is high and the population is relatively young, governments in the region are continuously pushing forward and deepening the reform of medical services to improve the ability of prevention and management of public health incidents, and will further expand the scope and improve the efficiency of medical services.

With the continuous implementation and promotion of multi-level policies at home and abroad, the medical demand in the global market will be fully released, and the trend of steady growth of medical equipment will be further clarified.

2. The development of the industry has entered a deep stage, and the substitution trend of high-end and ultra-high-end products is expected to accelerate.

In the past, China’s high-end medical imaging equipment providers were mainly foreign-funded enterprises such as GE Medical, Siemens Medical and Philips Medical. In the market of high-end PET/CT, MR and CT products, imported brands once occupied more than 90% of the market. For example, DSA, as the core equipment of interventional diagnosis and treatment, only has more than 1 million cases of coronary intervention in China every year, ranking first in the world, and the clinical demand is huge. However, according to relevant market statistics, the number of DSA per million population in China is only 6.4, which has a huge domestic substitution market space compared with the number of 45.5 in developed countries such as the United States, while the market share of domestic DSA brands is about 10%. After more than ten years of development of domestic medical imaging equipment technology, the self-research and innovation ability of domestic manufacturers will be further improved, and the import substitution trend of domestic brands will become more and more obvious.

In September, 2022, the meeting of the Standing Committee of the State Council decided that special re-loans and financial interest subsidies should support the upgrading of equipment in some areas to expand market demand and increase development potential. Subsequently, the Health and Health Commission issued the "Notice of National Health Commission to carry out financial discount loans to update and transform medical equipment", and it is planned to use financial discount loans to update and transform medical equipment to "add fuel to the new medical infrastructure".

In March, 2023, National Health Commission released a new version of the Catalogue of Management of Configuration Permission for Large Medical Equipment (2023), which was released. Compared with the 2018 edition, the number of Class A was reduced from 4 to 2, and the number of Class B was reduced from 6 to 4. Since then, PET/MR, Tomo, etc. have been adjusted to Class B, and all CT and MR do not need configuration certificates. The liberalization of configuration certificate has promoted the expansion of high-quality medical resources and balanced regional distribution, improved the graded diagnosis and treatment system, and promoted the high-quality development of health care. Domestic enterprises with deep product pipeline layout and strong R&D and innovation capabilities will further enhance their competitiveness in the mid-to high-end product market.

After years of coordinated development of the global industrial chain and the vigorous development of the domestic medical industry as a whole in the past decade, the integration of medical institutions around the world and the medical device industrial chain in China has been further deepened, and breakthroughs have been made in the core technology research of domestic medical devices in key areas, the global service ability and response speed have also been significantly improved, and the participation and market share in the global market have also been continuously expanded. With the in-depth implementation of China’s "Belt and Road" strategy and "going out" strategy, the price advantage and performance advantage of domestic innovative quality products have been further highlighted, which has become one of the important diversified layout drivers for the development of domestic brands in the international market.

3. Precision medicine has become one of the important clinical treatment trends.

Medical image diagnosis results can improve the accuracy of medical services. For example, orthopedic implants need to measure patients’ joints through CT equipment or XR equipment before operation, and doctors can better determine the surgical site and specific situation of patients through medical image diagnosis results. Under the background of the high cost of personalized medical equipment, if high-end medical imaging diagnostic equipment can provide accurate diagnosis before operation and assist the operation process, unnecessary consumables and operation expenses can be avoided.

4. Technological innovations such as 5G, AI and cloud services bring iterative upgrade of imaging technology.

The innovation of global Internet technology is changing the market of traditional medical device industry. For example, AI medical imaging is booming all over the world, and groundbreaking scientific and technological achievements such as artificial intelligence deep learning and AR telemedicine technology are being combined with medical imaging diagnostic equipment, thus accelerating the processing speed of image information and improving the accuracy of information processing. In addition, the development of 5G networks and cloud services has also accelerated the maturity of the "Internet+Medical" model, and telemedicine related products have become an important development direction of the medical imaging equipment industry. The high broadband of 5G network can effectively solve the problem of large and unstable transmission of medical data (such as CT images, ultrasound images, X-ray images, etc.), which can greatly improve the reliability of data transmission and effectively avoid the leakage of related data during transmission; Cloud services can store patients’ basic information and clinical records, and promote the sharing of information resources between different medical institutions.

5, medical imaging equipment multimodal fusion and diagnosis and treatment integration.

The future medical imaging equipment industry should not only provide high-performance medical imaging equipment for medical institutions, but also assist doctors to formulate integrated solutions for diagnosis and treatment, with the ultimate goal of reducing patients’ treatment costs and improving treatment efficiency. Therefore, multimodal fusion and integration of diagnosis and treatment are the main development direction of the industry in the future, and more medical imaging diagnosis and treatment equipment with multimodal function will be pushed to the market.

Taking the magnetic resonance linear accelerator as an example, radiotherapy is one of the important means to treat cancer. However, the traditional image-guided accelerator system lacks effective soft tissue image guidance, which can not locate tumors in real time during the treatment process, which greatly limits the accuracy and effectiveness of radiotherapy for tumors in all parts of the body, especially the treatment of many kinds of chest and abdomen tumors following respiratory movement. All along, the radiotherapy industry has been pursuing the integration of mr system and medical linear accelerator. However, due to the conflicting design principles of magnetic resonance and medical linear accelerator, there are still many technical challenges in the real close integration of the two devices.

In the future, with the deep integration, innovation and cooperation between leading manufacturers in the industry and upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain, and the continuous increase of core technologies and key technologies, the clinical needs of multi-scenarios and multi-diseases are expected to promote the launch of innovative equipment with multi-modality and integrated diagnosis and treatment, and greatly improve the accuracy and effectiveness of cancer radiotherapy.
