Some of them are between 150 and 300 years old, and each of them has an identity certificate. The customs cracked a major smuggling case.

       CCTV News:Recently, under the command of the Anti-smuggling Bureau of the General Administration of Customs, Shanghai Customs launched a special campaign against smuggling and importing endangered species. Three gangs specializing in the smuggling and import of lobular rosewood were destroyed, seven suspects were arrested, and more than 50 tons of lobular rosewood were seized on the spot.

       During the investigation, it was found that a number of gangs specializing in smuggling lobular rosewood organized goods from abroad and smuggled a large number of lobular rosewood originating in Southeast Asian countries into the country by tampering with the name and source of the goods.

       Wang Weifeng, Deputy Chief of Yangshan Customs Inspection Section, said: "Its loading port, that is, the last port to enter China, is Singaporean, but its declared country of origin is Zambian. Then from the perspective of routes, Zambia itself is on our ocean route. "

       This detour route has attracted the attention of the relevant customs departments. At the freight container terminal of Shanghai Yangshan Port, the customs anti-smuggling personnel unpacked and inspected a container that had been pre-controlled. It is found that each piece of wood in the container has a separate package and number.

       Shang Linlin, deputy section chief of Yangshan Branch of Shanghai Customs Anti-smuggling Bureau: "There is a number on the back of this package. When we opened the package, there was also a number on the wood. It should be the delivery time of the other party. In order to prevent the goods from being lost or damaged, each piece of wood is numbered. Because this thing is of higher value. "

       Pterocarya microphylla belongs to a small tree of evergreen family, most of which grows in tropical and subtropical virgin forests, and there is also a very small amount of growth in Yunnan, Guangxi and Guangdong in China. From the material point of view, only the real Indian Pterocarya microphylla is a fine wood, and its color, density and fragrance are incomparable with other materials.

       Wang Weifeng, deputy section chief of Yangshan Customs Inspection Section: "As can be seen from the cross section, the age of this wood is roughly between 150 and 300 years. Red sandalwood, ten sandalwood and nine empty, a thick wood like this, actually has no hollow inside, which is very precious and rare. "

       After on-site inspection and later identification, all the 13 tons of wood in this container are lobular rosewood originating in India. According to the clue, the anti-smuggling personnel intercepted four containers of similar goods at the Shanghai port.

       After verification, the anti-smuggling personnel confirmed that these lobular rosewood were suspected of smuggling and importing. The Shanghai Customs Anti-smuggling Bureau immediately organized police forces to arrest a number of target suspects for overseas cargo collection, customs clearance and transportation, and domestic sales.

       After thorough investigation, the anti-smuggling personnel went deep into Xianyou County, Putian City, Fujian Province, and tracked and arrested one of the smuggling suspects. Near a residential area, when the suspect got off the bus and left, he saw someone approaching and suddenly accelerated to escape.

       At the same time, anti-smuggling personnel also arrested four other suspects suspected of smuggling lobular rosewood in Zhangjiagang, Jiangsu and Shanghai respectively, and seized a number of relevant documentary evidence. Initially, it was found that several smuggling gangs smuggled lobular rosewood originating in India into the country for profit through overseas purchase, transportation clearance and domestic sales.

       Wang Xuan, deputy section chief of Shanghai Customs Foreign Port Anti-smuggling Branch: "He will go to India to see the goods. Judging from his entry and exit records, it is still relatively frequent, and he will go to (India) to look at the goods every once in a while. Most of the goods are through WeChat pictures and small videos to see the approximate quality of the goods. "

       After the container was delivered to China port, the gang in charge of customs clearance changed the Indian lobular rosewood into African-made dye rosewood without import license, and then applied to the domestic customs for import declaration. Since then, these goods have been transported to the high-grade timber distribution center in Xianyou, Fujian Province for sale.

CCTV: "Nuclear fog dyeing" is a lie packaged with pseudoscientific concepts.

  Original title: Why is "nuclear smog" a rumor?

  June 5th is World Environmental Protection Day. At the Beijing Green Communication Conference held a few days ago, the Beijing Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau released the "Top Ten Environmental Protection Rumors" for the first time, among which the second rumor was: "The smog persists because of nuclear pollution", also known as nuclear smog. The core point of an online article entitled "The Collapse of China’s Coal Industry and Nuclear Haze Disaster" is that some thermal power plants in northern China use coal containing radioactive uranium from Inner Mongolia, and uranium is discharged into the air in the form of dust with the coal burning, resulting in nuclear radiation pollution, which is related to the frequent smog phenomenon in North China in recent years. Under the guise of science, the article quotes a lot of false data and false facts, which makes the article very deceptive. For friends who don’t know the truth and lack scientific knowledge, it is easy to be deceived. (Why is "Nuclear Haze" in Focus Interview 20160605 a rumor?)

  Cctv news(Focus Interview): Today is June 5th, which is World Environmental Protection Day. At the Beijing Green Communication Conference held a few days ago, the Beijing Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau released the "Top Ten Environmental Protection Rumors" for the first time, among which the second rumor was: "The smog persists because of nuclear pollution", also known as nuclear smog. So how did this statement of nuclear smog come from? We put the time back to last winter. After the winter, because of the continuous smog weather, many places in China started the red warning of heavy air pollution for the first time. Just as everyone is asking how the smog is produced, where it comes from and why it is difficult to eliminate it, an online article about "nuclear fog dyeing" has attracted attention.

  First look at the title of this article: "China’s coal industry collapse and nuclear fog disaster." Nuclear, smog, pollution, disaster, every word is very "lethal". The Ministry of Environmental Protection also specifically clarified that there is no correlation between nuclear radiation and smog formation. So, what is this "nuclear fog dyeing" that has caused many speculations?

  The core point of this online article entitled "China’s Coal Industry Collapse and Nuclear Haze Disaster" is that some thermal power plants in northern China use coal containing radioactive uranium from Inner Mongolia, and uranium is discharged into the air in the form of dust with coal combustion, which causes nuclear radiation pollution. In recent years, frequent smog phenomena in North China are related to this. At the same time, the article also puts forward in horror that this kind of nuclear radiation pollution will seriously affect the ecology, and the disaster far exceeds the Iraq war that year. As soon as this statement came out, it caused a lot of hot discussions on the Internet.

  In response to the statement of "nuclear fog pollution", the Ministry of Environmental Protection gave an authoritative conclusion at the beginning of this year: the radioactive level of China’s atmospheric environment has been stable for more than ten years, and no particulate matter with high uranium content has been found. Nuclear radiation has nothing to do with the formation of smog. The conclusion is very clear. So, how did you get this result?

  According to the Radiation Environmental Monitoring Technology Center of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, since 2006, according to the population density and geographical conditions, China has established 167 air level monitoring stations in various places. These monitoring stations are distributed in densely populated areas of large and medium-sized cities, and the density of distribution is close to the level of nuclear powers in the world. The news of these monitoring stations will be transmitted to the National Radiation Environmental Monitoring Data Center.

  Relevant personnel of the Radiation Environmental Technology Monitoring Center of the Ministry of Environmental Protection stressed that since the saying of "nuclear fog dyeing" began in 2014, the monitoring of uranium content in the air has been particularly strengthened. Automatic monitoring and laboratory analysis show that the data is normal.

  Ten years of automatic detection and laboratory analysis have not found any abnormality in the radioactive level in the air in China, which is the conclusion of the Ministry of Environmental Protection. The reporter specially went to two other scientific research institutions for interviews, one is the China Institute of Atomic Energy, which is called the "incubator" of China’s nuclear industry, and the other is lasg.

  Liu Senlin, vice president of China Institute of Atomic Energy, said: "We began to monitor the uranium content in the air around 1958, and it has accumulated for almost 60 years. From the level of our laboratory, we can probably find 0.1 millibecquerel in the air. Uranium in every cubic meter of air can’t be measured most of the time, even if the measured value is very small, it has no impact on the human body." Wang Yuesi, a researcher in lasg, said: "There are 36 observation stations in all parts of the country, which have been observed since 2012. According to the extensive observation data in the country, uranium in atmospheric particles in our country is radioactive, including other radioactive elements. There is no abnormality and no change, so everyone can rest assured."

  The data from the Radiation Environmental Monitoring Technology Center of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, China Institute of Atomic Energy and lasg all show that the atmospheric environmental radiation level in China has been stable for more than ten years, that is to say, the so-called "nuclear fog pollution" does not exist at all.

  At the same time, I would also like to remind everyone that the monitoring results of radiation levels in the air are regularly published on the official website of the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the official WeChat meeting of the National Nuclear Safety Administration. You can check them from time to time if you are worried.

  Go back and have a look at the ins and outs of this article. The source of the so-called "nuclear fog dyeing" mentioned in this article: coal with uranium from Ordos region of Inner Mongolia. If you want to say what uranium is, you may first think of the atomic bomb. Yes, highly enriched uranium can make nuclear weapons. Then, is there uranium in the coal in Ordos, Inner Mongolia? Is the coal there the so-called "uranium coal" that will cause nuclear pollution? Let’s listen to the authoritative experts.

  Pan Ziqiang, an academician of China Academy of Engineering, said: "The content of coal and uranium in Inner Mongolia should be low in the whole country." Liu Senlin said: "We have measured more than 90% of the coal mines in Inner Mongolia. According to the average output, the content of coal in Inner Mongolia is 49.8 becquerels per kilogram, and the national value is about 61 points. Therefore, the uranium content in coal mines in Inner Mongolia is lower than that in the whole country. The coal in our country is equivalent to the global average, basically at the same level." Pan Ziqiang said: "Uranium has existed on the earth since ancient times. There is no place without uranium, but this amount is relatively small, so it will not have harmful effects on people."

  There are three key points here: the coal in Inner Mongolia does contain uranium; The content is lower than the national level; The uranium content in coal in China is comparable to that in other countries.

  It can be said that uranium is everywhere, in the soil and in the air. Like many substances in nature, it is harmless as long as it is small, so there is no need to talk about uranium discoloration.

  Let’s take a look at the so-called uranium coal mentioned in this online article. It is said in the article that the coal mines and uranium mines near Erdos in Inner Mongolia are together, and the coal and uranium are mixed, and the purity of uranium is very high. When coal is burned, the uranium mine is burned. What is the fact?

  Wang Yuesi said: "No country is willing to burn this uranium mine in vain. Uranium mine is so precious. If the content is so high, it is a welcome thing to collect it as nuclear fuel. Can it be wasted?" Liu Senlin said: "The current understanding is that the spatial relationship between uranium mines or coal mines in Inner Mongolia is probably like this: this layer is a uranium-bearing layer, and this layer is basically a coal seam. The thickness between these two areas is about 100 meters. This 100-meter geological layer is mainly underground water and geological minerals."

  This is clear: coal mines and uranium mines are separated by almost 100 meters, and they are not mixed at all. At the same time, experts point out that uranium can only be called uranium mines when the average content of uranium reaches more than five ten thousandths, while China has always been a uranium-deficient country. Once uranium is discovered, its exploitation will be strictly restricted by the state, and it is impossible to waste such precious resources as uranium in vain.

  However, experts also mentioned that trace uranium does exist in coal. So, with the burning of coal, where did uranium go? According to the article "Nuclear Fog Dyeing", hundreds of thousands of tons of radioactive uranium dust are released directly from chimneys every year, which are widely distributed in cities and villages. So, will uranium turn into dust and enter the air after burning?

  Liu Senlin said: "Burning coal is a carbonization process. Since it is carbonized, the combustion temperature of our coal-fired boilers, including coal-fired power plants, is about 800 degrees, while the melting point of uranium is more than 1,400 degrees, and the boiling point is more than 2,000 degrees. During the combustion process, uranium is not burned, but is in the cinder. At present, the trend of uranium in coal is about such a proportion: 90% enters the cinder, and the remaining 10% enters the fly ash. The fly ash is filtered by the filter, and about 1% enters the filter system, enters the chimney environment through desulfurization, and enters the atmosphere. Uranium in coal entering the environment is basically negligible. "

  After coal combustion, more than 90% of uranium goes to ash, 10% to fly ash, and after dust removal and filtration, only 1% finally goes to the atmosphere. Because the density of uranium is very high, 19 tons per cubic meter, the particulate matter of uranium will soon be deposited on the ground and will not be suspended in the air. Therefore, as long as the ash and fly ash are properly treated, even around the thermal power plant, there will generally be no large radiation.

  In this article "Nuclear Fog Dyeing", the final goal is: the persistent smog shows that a large number of charged dust particles are floating in the air. It is radioactive uranium dust that provides power for charged particles, so even if the sun comes out and the temperature rises, it can’t be eliminated like fog. This view is also considered nonsense by experts.

  Wang Yuesi said: "For example, I am from Beijing. When I was young, there must be coal at noon in the morning. Why? In the early days, it was water. By noon, the fog evaporated and disappeared. Now, the fog that started in the morning is mixed with a lot of particulate matter, that is, PM2.5 is still there. This day is still not blue, and this day has passed. Therefore, the smog is the reason for the duration, and the concentration of particulate matter in the atmosphere is too high. The floating time is too long, so in this case, the process of smog formation has nothing to do with us, mainly the discharged motor vehicles, coal-fired industries and ground dust. "

  Seeing this, you finally understand that "nuclear fog dyeing" is a lie packaged with pseudo-scientific concepts, but why does such an article full of conceptual errors and logical confusion lead to the forwarding on the Internet? First, under the guise of science, the article quotes a lot of false data and facts, which makes the article very deceptive. For friends who don’t know the truth and lack scientific knowledge, it is easy to be deceived. Another, it takes advantage of the public’s attention to smog. In fact, among the top ten environmental rumors released this time, air pollution rumors accounted for six. Smog really annoys everyone, but even so, don’t believe rumors and rumors easily, let alone spread them, or believe in data and facts and science.

The growth rate of instant delivery is as high as 19.1%, and the "one-to-one delivery" of flash delivery is the first to build a commercial moat.

In the early morning of March 2024, Zhang Fengyuan, a flash rider, received an order at Langfang, Hebei. After a third of the journey, the customer asked for the medicine to be sent to Chaoyang Hospital. Zhang Fengyuan recognized the customer’s eagerness. Without hesitation, he changed the route and sent the medicine to the designated location at the first time. In May, the flash rider Mu Honglei received an order to send the project bidding documents. At that time, the customer holding the bidding document was blocked on the road, so he placed an emergency order to send the documents through the rider riding the electric car, and the final documents were delivered in time.

In the past many years, such urgent orders have appeared in the flash dispatch system every day. Not only that, but also daughters surprise their mothers with flowers, passports, clothes and keys … After one case after another, the one-to-one delivery model gradually builds their own business "moat". Founded in 2014, Flash not only turned losses into profits, but also successfully went public and embarked on a new stage of the company’s development.

Flash delivery was established in 2014, and e-commerce is still in the early stage of development, and the mode of distribution in the same city has just started. Nowadays, after 10 years of epidemic experience and development, the same city distribution represented by flash delivery has entered a new stage of development, the market demand has been further expanded, and the distribution quality has been further improved.

In the past 10 years, the instant delivery industry has experienced rapid development. When some peer companies choose the single-order mode, Flash always adheres to the one-to-one service scenario mode and is committed to solving the urgent needs of users.

According to the survey conducted by iResearch, the top three factors that users value when they actively use ready-to-use services are: platform delivery timeliness (55.5%), delivery service experience (41.8%) and platform delivery price (35.8%). In the one-to-one delivery mode, the rider only delivers one ticket at a time, without spelling or detouring, which makes the delivery faster and the time more accurate. According to the current transportation capacity deployment, the flash riders arrive at home in an average of 7 minutes and deliver to the whole city in 27 minutes. Similar cases have happened countless times on the flash platform. For example, when the user arrives at the airport and finds that he forgot to bring his passport, it is not allowed to return to collect his passport. At this time, the one-to-one mode of flash can give full play to the role, and the rider is like a "savior" of consumers.

In addition, in the one-on-one delivery, the service quality of the rider is also more guaranteed, and giving gifts to important people has become the "best thing" of flash delivery. Especially on Valentine’s Day, Qixi Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Spring Festival and other holidays, the demand for gifts has greatly increased, and one-on-one delivery orders have also reached a peak. In addition, important items such as bidding documents, contracts and valuables are also the categories that have been delivered more in the past years.

These seemingly simple delivery tasks, in the process of actual delivery, will face many challenges, such as traffic jams, poor communication when picking up goods, and so on, which will greatly consume the time limit. Chen Guolin, a flash rider, has received such an order. The goods to be delivered are U shields, and the financial personnel at the other end are waiting to use them. However, it rained cats and dogs that day, and the rider couldn’t stop the dripping rain in his raincoat. He was soaked all over and the road was slippery, so it was difficult to increase the driving speed. However, Chen Guolin kept in mind the user’s instructions of "deliver as soon as possible, don’t lose it", and finally delivered the goods on time, intact.

In the current situation that the pace of life and work is getting faster and faster, urgent delivery needs occur from time to time, and timeliness and communication ability are the most important factors for users. These situations are difficult to be completed by the mode of spelling orders, and one-on-one flash delivery has gradually formed its own commercial barriers. According to the survey data of instant delivery service users conducted by iResearch in October 2023, the user satisfaction and recommendation of flash delivery are higher than the industry average. According to the data of iResearch, according to the revenue in 2023, Flash will account for about 33.9% of the independent one-to-one express delivery service market in China.

In recent years, with the rapid development of e-commerce platform, catering take-out, fresh fruits and vegetables and other industries, the demand for instant delivery in the same city has increased dramatically. Consumers put forward higher requirements for fast, accurate and safe delivery services, thus promoting the continuous innovation of delivery technology and the continuous optimization of service model. In 2023, the scale of instant delivery industry in China has reached 338.5 billion yuan, with a compound annual growth rate of 19.8% from 2019 to 2023.

However, we also need to see that there is still a lot of room to be tapped in the instant delivery market in the same city, and more incremental markets will be expanded in the future. According to the forecast of iResearch, the average annual growth rate of instant delivery industry in China is expected to be as high as 19.1% from 2023 to 2028, and the overall scale of the industry is predicted to increase to 809.64 billion yuan in 2028.

Taking Flash Delivery as an example, on the basis of one-to-one express delivery service, Flash Delivery has reached cooperation with different companies such as Tik Tok, Meituan and China Railway Express, and its express delivery service capability has become the fulcrum of extended cooperation.

In 2022, Flash reached a "group purchase and distribution" cooperation with Tik Tok Life Service, and Flash provided a "one-hour average journey" service for the Tik Tok platform. In 2023, Flash Delivery cooperated with Meituan Takeaway to provide transportation support. Facts have also proved that in certain categories and scenes, such as flowers, medicines, mobile phones and other categories, and in the scene of long-distance delivery, many merchants and users will choose to use flash delivery.

After that, under the catalysis of the epidemic situation, the demand for "one-hour delivery" service of life platforms such as Tik Tok expanded rapidly, and new retail platforms such as Meituan, Dongfang Selection and Box Horse also launched a new round of competition in delivery timeliness and quality, and independent instant delivery platforms such as flash delivery also had stronger market value.

The involution also appears in the railway industry, which also provides a new business scenario for the same city distribution. Last year, China Railway Express launched the "high-speed rail express delivery" service, providing cross-city and inter-provincial "door-to-door" day-to-day service. This new format also needs to be delivered in the same city, and it has higher requirements on timeliness and quality. Flash delivery has become the "high-speed rail express delivery" partner of China Railway Express, providing one-to-one express delivery service in the pick-up and delivery links in the same city. According to the data released by Flash Delivery, in the first four months of the launch of the business, "High-speed Railway Express Delivery" handled more than 7,000 orders.

In addition, in addition to the traditional distribution format, flash delivery also extends to help buy, queue and handle affairs, further enriching the format.

With the accelerated integration of the same-city distribution, especially high-quality distribution services, into consumers’ lives, the demand for the same-city distribution has been further stimulated. According to the survey data of iResearch consumers, nearly 25% of consumers use the ready-to-use service more than 10 times a month, and over 90% of consumers use the ready-to-use service at least once a month.

At the same time, the demand of B-end users for instant delivery service in the same city is also growing. According to the survey data of iResearch, 37.1% of users think that the distribution demand derived from work exceeds 20% of the total demand. This has prompted B-side merchants to gradually recognize and use the instant delivery brand, and improve the penetration rate of instant delivery among B-side users. At the same time, with the increase of B-end users’ usage rate, the trust of instant delivery brands is accumulating, which will also be positively fed back to C-end users’ market, thus promoting the user scale of instant delivery enterprises to increase by an order of magnitude.

What needs to be further seen is that instant delivery in the same city should also transform from low-end to high-end. With the continuous expansion of the market, users’ needs are more and more diverse, and some users have put forward higher requirements for the quality of distribution. Instant distribution enterprises in the same city should always grasp the changes in consumers’ needs and gain market recognition.

Whether the instant delivery in the same city is moving from traditional to high-end or the B-end merchants are increasingly using one-to-one delivery, it shows the development potential and activity of this market. The instant delivery enterprises in the same city, represented by flash delivery, should also seize the opportunity of industry changes and further tap the market potential while meeting the diverse needs of consumers.
