Focus interview: How to ensure the safety of "security certificate" fraud

  Cctv news(Focus Interview): Special operations are unfamiliar to many people, but they are actually closely related to our safety production. Such as electrical work, welding and hot cutting, high-altitude work, refrigeration and air conditioning work, coal mine safety work, etc. are all special operations. Because these jobs are professional and dangerous, the Law on Work Safety specifically stipulates that special operators of production and business units must be trained in special safety operations in accordance with relevant state regulations and obtain corresponding qualifications before they can take up their posts. However, driven by interests, chaos such as making and selling fake special work permits also occurs frequently.

  At the beginning of 2023, many departments such as emergency management in Xicheng District of Beijing conducted joint law enforcement inspections on construction sites. It mainly checks the authenticity of the special operation certificate held by special operators and whether the special operation certificate is within the validity period. In the process, law enforcement officers found a strange thing.

  Yang Weiguo, captain of the Third Team of the Comprehensive Law Enforcement Brigade of the Xicheng District Emergency Management Bureau, said: "One of them, Bai Moumou, was found, and his special operation certificate was not found on the official website of the Emergency Department or the national safety production examination platform and WeChat official account platform of the mobile phone, and there was no information. The strange thing is that when we scanned this certificate with WeChat, a website interface similar to the official website of the Emergency Department popped up. "

  Bai Moumou holds a special operation certificate for welding and hot cutting. When law enforcement officers log on to the "National Work Safety Examination" platform and scan the QR code of the electronic photo of Bai Moumou’s certificate, it shows that "the number of the certificate file is wrong, please contact the issuing authority for verification". However, the "page" query popped up by scanning the QR code of the certificate through the WeChat "sweep" function shows that Bai Moumou is qualified for "welding and hot cutting operations" and the certificate is within the validity period. At first glance, the "page" is almost identical to the official website page.

  Liu Zhenyuan, Deputy Procurator-General of Beijing Railway Transport Procuratorate: "When comparing the real official website with the fake one, you can first see the website address. The real official website is gov.cn, and at the same time, there will be the authentication of the party and government organs in front of the search engine. After entering this website, you can find that the real website can provide electronic certificate download, but the fake website does not have this function."

  Law enforcement officers also verified with the issuing authority printed on the certificate, and finally confirmed that the special operation certificate held by Bai Moumou was a forged certificate.

  Through these clues, law enforcement officers judged that the false certificate held by Bai Moumou was not a case. After the law enforcement officers imposed administrative punishment on Bai Moumou, they immediately asked the procuratorate to intervene in the case.

  Special operation certificate is related to safety production and human life, and is also regarded as "safety certificate" for construction operation. So, where do these fake "safety certificates" come from? What links does this gray-black industrial chain include?

  Shi Liang, deputy director of the Seventh Procuratorial Department of the People’s Procuratorate of Xicheng District, Beijing: "This criminal gang has formed a systematic feature with a clear division of labor among upstream, middle and bottom personnel. The most upstream is responsible for building fake websites, collecting information on the demand for counterfeiting, and handing it over to the criminals in the middle reaches to manufacture the documents of the entity. "

  According to reports, the criminal suspect Sun Moumou is the most upstream. He first paid people to make fake websites, and then developed a number of agents to find and collect people who spent money to buy fake special operation certificates through online social software, online merchants and offline. By the person who is responsible for the false certificates, the false certificates are made and sent to the corresponding offline agents, and finally to the buyers.

  The personnel who make fake certificates only need to fill in the identity information of the purchaser on the background management page of the fake website, and they will automatically generate a fake special operation qualification certificate, scan the QR code on the certificate, and open the fake official website. The name of the issuing authority, the validity period and the type of work information on the fake certificate are readily available.

  According to the background data of the fake website opened by criminal gangs, more than 500,000 people pay attention to the website, and more than 19,000 people have purchased forged special operation certificates. The construction types cover 39 high-risk operations such as electric welding, aerial work, lifting and signaling.

  In May 2023, the Beijing Public Security Bureau handled the case and went to several provinces to arrest and arrested more than a dozen criminal suspects who made fake websites.

  For the downstream certified personnel, the middle-stream intermediary traders and the upstream counterfeiting sources screened out, the Beijing procuratorate took a classified and graded crackdown in the process of handling cases.

  Although this special operation certificate counterfeiting gang has been cracked, are there still people with fake certificates? At present, there are more than 3,000 construction sites registered in Beijing. These sites are widely distributed and the construction workers are highly mobile. It is far from enough to quickly lock in those who hold false certificates. The Beijing procuratorate has developed and established a legal supervision model for cases involving special operation certificates for safety production, which connects the information of on-site construction workers in the housing and construction sector with the information of the certificate verification platform of the emergency management department and the housing and construction department.

  After data comparison, more than 300 people suspected of holding false certificates in Beijing were finally found out. Multi-departments jointly enforced the law, quickly locked the construction sites where these people were located, rectified them, and eliminated potential safety hazards from the source. At the same time, relevant departments launched a clean-up of network information and fake websites.

  Working with certificates for special operations is a guarantee for the interests of life, enterprises and the public, and at the same time it is also safeguarding its own legitimate rights and interests. The special operation environment is complex and risky, and the operators must be trained and obtain professional qualification certificates before they can take up their jobs. Special operations are required to be certified, enterprises have safety production norms, and laws have relevant hard and fast rules, but the behavior of manufacturing, selling and using fake special operations certificates is still repeatedly prohibited. Why are some people willing to take risks and do false certificates? Why did the "guarantee certificate" of safety production fall down one after another?

  Person in charge of a construction site: "The wages for special operations are relatively high, such as the wages for welders should be from 500 yuan to 600 yuan for one day. Because of the heavy physical labor, scaffolders usually spend more than one day in 600 yuan, which is very different from ordinary workers. Ordinary workers should spend 200 to 300 yuan a day. "

  The "gold content" of the special operation certificate is high. With the operation certificate, the salary will be greatly improved, which makes many people who do not have the conditions and cannot pass the exam willing to take risks to buy fake certificates.

  Wu Junrong, deputy director of the Law Enforcement Industry and Trade Bureau of the Emergency Management Department: "The first hazard is that the risk of accidents is relatively high. These false certificate holders lack the knowledge and corresponding safety skills that they should know, and they can’t identify the hidden dangers around them, and they can’t rectify them. In addition, it is easy to violate the rules and regulations, and the probability of accidents is relatively high; The second hazard is to increase the difficulty of supervision and lay a potential risk for safe production. "

  In recent years, accidents caused by illegal operations have occurred from time to time because employees hold false certificates of special operation certificates or fail to obtain certificates.

  On November 21, 2022, a major fire broke out in the factory building of Kaixinda Trading Co., Ltd. in Anyang City, Henan Province.

  Wu Junrong, deputy director of the Law Enforcement Industry and Trade Bureau of the Emergency Management Department, said: "The cause of this accident is that the relevant personnel of Kaixinda Company repeatedly violated laws and regulations in welding operations without obtaining the special operation certificate, which eventually led to the accident."

  On April 17, 2023, a major fire accident occurred in Zhejiang Weijiali Industry and Trade Co., Ltd.

  Wu Junrong: "After investigation, this company hired unlicensed personnel to conduct illegal welding operations, which ignited the surrounding paint and finally led to the accident."

  In addition to the phenomenon of forging the operation certificate of special operations, there is another kind of operation certificate that is true, but the holder has not passed strict training and does not have the corresponding operation skills or safety knowledge. This phenomenon is called "false real certificate".

  Wu Junrong: "The first category is true false certificates, which mainly refer to false certificates forged by criminals and cannot be found on the government’s inquiry website;" The second type of false certificate belongs to the false true certificate, which refers to the certificate obtained by practicing fraud during the training and examination, such as compressing the training duration during training, not training according to the outline, practicing fraud during the examination, or even cheating. "

  The so-called "false real certificate" is mainly because there are still some outstanding problems in the safety technical training and assessment of special operators. For example, some institutions falsely publicize that the special operation certificate has been packaged and exempted from examination; Some training institutions do not teach according to the syllabus, and the training is fraudulent; Some examination institutions (including examination points) are lax in invigilation, regardless of examination and training, conniving at, participating in and even organizing candidates to cheat; There are also individual training and examination institutions that collude with each other to sell certificates, resulting in "false real certificates", that is, special operation certificates obtained by practicing fraud in training and examination, or even not taking part in training and examination, are circulating in the market.

  Wu Junrong: "In recent years, the emergency management department has carried out ‘ Safety production training goes through the motions ’ Special rectification has rectified a number of unqualified safety production training institutions, examination institutions and examination points. "

  In order to resolutely curb the chaos of obtaining evidence for special operation certificates, since September 2021, the Emergency Management Department and the Ministry of Public Security have jointly launched a nationwide special campaign to crack down on the manufacture and sale of counterfeit safety production certificates on counterfeit government websites, and concentrated on destroying a number of counterfeit dens for forged certificates, punishing a number of gangs that counterfeit government websites, and investigating a number of counterfeit personnel and enterprises.

  In 2022, Jiuquan City, Gansu Province destroyed a criminal gang that forged and sold false certificates, arrested 20 suspects and seized more than 11,000 false certificates.

  In 2022, Chongqing arrested a criminal gang that forged and sold false certificates, arrested 72 suspects and seized more than 50,000 pieces of false certificate information.

  In 2021, Jiangyin City, Jiangsu Province arrested a criminal gang that forged and sold false certificates, arrested 40 suspects and seized more than 40,000 false certificates.

  At the same time, relevant departments have carried out special rectification for special operation certificate training institutions and examination points. There were 4,171 law enforcement inspection and training institutions in various places, 315 were eliminated and cleaned up, 299 were closed for rectification, and 2,445 were ordered to rectify; 2,213 examination institutions were inspected, 212 examination points were cancelled, 153 were suspended for rectification, and 997 were ordered to rectify. The chaos of training and examination was initially contained.

  Special operation certificate, commonly known as safety certificate, is not only related to the safety of workers’ lives and property, but also to public safety. Safety certificates are all forged, how can we talk about safety in production? Frequent safety accidents have repeatedly warned us that special operations must be certified and standardized, so as to avoid accidents as much as possible. Therefore, on the one hand, it is necessary to strengthen the supervision of training and examination, and at the same time, all relevant departments should also strengthen the verification of special operations personnel. At the same time, people who want to engage in special operations should not be lucky. Special operations, special industries and special locations should be trained and collected according to regulations, which is responsible for everyone including themselves. After all, safety in production is greater than the sky.

Migrant workers were killed in a car accident on their way home. Continued: the brakes of the truck were out of order and overloaded, taking full responsibility.

On the afternoon of February 8, a traffic accident occurred when a truck collided with a car in the direction of Baoshan, Yunnan, on the Hangrui Expressway, killing five people and injuring one. Ms. Yang, the family member of the victims, told The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) on February 26th that Baoshan traffic police had confirmed the responsibility of the accident on February 25th, and identified the truck driver Wei Moumou as fully responsible for the accident.

The Paper previously reported that Ms. Yang’s father and his five people went to Yunnan to ask for the project payment in the Spring Festival. After getting back more than 1.2 million yuan in cash, the five people returned to Chongqing in a Volkswagen car driven by Yang and suffered a car accident on the way.

The Letter of Confirmation of Road Traffic Accidents issued by the Second Brigade of the Traffic Police Detachment of Baoshan Public Security Bureau (hereinafter referred to as the Letter of Confirmation) shows that on the afternoon of February 8, Wei Moumou drove the Futian brand heavy-duty warehouse truck of Yun M35775 from mangshi to Baoshan along Hangrui Expressway, and when he reached the k2777-972 meters of Hangrui Expressway at 17: 35, A rear-end collision occurred with the Chongqing A89W76 Volkswagen sedan driven by Yang Moumou in front.

According to the "Certificate of Confirmation", Wei Moumou drove a vehicle whose parts did not meet the technical standards and whose load exceeded the approved load quality on the road. After discovering that the vehicle brake failed during driving, he failed to take timely measures to avoid danger, and still drove the vehicle that was out of control and drove at a high speed, which was the root cause of the accident and assumed full responsibility for the accident.

Ms. Yang and other families of the victims confirmed to The Paper that the cash of 677,210 yuan left at the scene of the accident had been distributed to them in proportion.

Ms. Yang said that she returned to Chongqing from Baoshan on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month (February 14th). At present, she is taking care of her poor mother while working, and the follow-up of the car accident has been entrusted to local lawyers in Baoshan.

The staff of the Traffic Police Detachment of Baoshan Public Security Bureau said on the 26th that Wei Moumou was suspected of traffic accidents and had been criminally detained by the public security organs according to law, and the case was being handled according to procedures.

Sogou hardware completely exits, and there is no "small but beautiful" intelligent hardware?

Recently, sogou announced that due to business adjustment, sogou hardware products will officially stop service at 23: 59 on May 30, 2024.This indicates that sogou’s hardware products such as Sugar Cat Watch, Sugar Cat at Home, Sugar Cat Dictionary Pen, sogou Translate Pen and sogou Recording Pen will no longer provide any online services, technical support or maintenance services.In order to ensure the safety of users’ personal information, sogou promised to delete all users’ data safely after the service stopped, and reminded users to back up relevant data in time.

Since it was incorporated by Tencent, at least ten businesses of sogou have been shut down one after another, including sogou, sogou Reading, sogou Lending, sogou search App, sogou Map, sogou Game Center, sogou Internet Alliance and so on. With the adjustment of various businesses, many former sogou people who merged into Tencent’s non-core business departments mostly left after several rounds of business adjustment.

Hardware exits, and everything has a warning.

Intelligent hardware was once regarded by Wang Xiaochuan, then Sogou CEO, as the second growth curve of sogou except the combination of search+input method+browser. In his plan, the proportion of intelligent hardware in sogou’s overall revenue will reach 10%, but it did not reach this standard until sogou was acquired by Tencent.

Sogou’s last financial report before delisting showed that in the second quarter of 2021, sogou’s total revenue was US$ 147.5 million, of which search and search-related business revenue was US$ 137.2 million, down 43% year-on-year, accounting for 92%; The non-search revenue, including intelligent hardware, was $10.3 million, accounting for less than 10% of the revenue.

Although this part of the decline in revenue is mainly due to the company’s strategy of shrinking non-core business, sogou’s intelligent hardware is not without struggle. In fact, sogou’s intelligent hardware business also had its own highlight moments.

On December 8, 2014, sogou officially launched the company’s first intelligent hardware device-children’s smart watch "Sugar Cat", announcing the exploration of opening intelligent hardware business.At that time, it was the time when the intelligent hardware industry flourished. Sugar Cat, which was established only one year ago, achieved quite good results in the 618 promotion in 2015 and became the double champion of sales and reputation of children’s smart watches.

After that, sogou successively released intelligent hardware products such as dictionary pens, recording pens, translation treasures and translation pens. In 2018, JD.COM, a travel translator named sogou, was first put on the shelves, with sales exceeding 10 million, winning the first place in the same category in JD.COM; In 2020, the sogou recording pen S1, which was priced at over 3,000 yuan, was put on the first show live room in Tik Tok, Luo Yonghao, and gained 48 million cumulative viewers.

The above list is one of the few highlights of sogou’s intelligent hardware business. Since its development in 2014, sogou’s intelligent hardware business has occasionally improved, but the competitors of each subdivision track are too strong. At the children’s smart watch track, there are manufacturers focusing on children’s watches such as Little Genius and Abachi, as well as digital manufacturers such as Huawei and Xiaomi, which have developed from smart watches across the border. In hardware tracks such as translation pens, dictionary pens and recording pens, there are also giants such as Iflytek, Netease Youdao, Alibaba and Baidu competing for competition.

Source: sogou

Taking dictionary pens as an example, as an important part of intelligent education hardware, it is difficult for sogou to cross the two mountains of Iflytek and Netease Youdao. According to the online monitoring data of RUNTO, in 2023, the retail volume of the online open retail market of dictionaries and pens in China (excluding e-commerce companies with content such as vibrato) was 3.626 million, and the sales volume reached 1.78 billion yuan.

Among them, Iflytek’s Alpha Egg and Netease ranked first and second respectively, accounting for 54% of the domestic market, while the TOP10 brands such as Aifen, Little Genius, samtwos and BBK only occupied single-digit market share, and sogou was directly reduced to Others.

Dictionary pens are only the epitome of sogou’s smart hardware business. After careful observation, it is not difficult to find that most of the products launched by sogou after joining the smart hardware track are aimed at specific people and specific businesses.It’s not that there is something wrong with the idea of choosing the track, but that compared with competing products, the products don’t show the advantage of continuously attracting the target group, and multi-line operations all face the same problem, so it’s not surprising that sogou’s hardware business ended up like this.

Sogou is lonely, with little business left.

Looking back on the development of sogou in the past 20 years, it left its own trace in the Internet PC era in China, and it had a history with Internet giants such as Sohu, Alibaba and Tencent.

In 2003, sogou engine was hatched in Sohu, but at this time, Baidu was firmly at the top of domestic search engines, leaving little room for sogou to play. Subsequently, the sogou input method gained a good reputation from users because of its convenient and accurate pinyin input and rich related vocabulary. According to public information, around 2010, the user utilization rate of sogou input method reached 79.7%, far ahead of other input methods, and this advantage was not surpassed by Baidu until 2020.

In this process, Wang Xiaochuan, the former CEO of sogou, put forward a three-stage rocket traffic conduction model of "input method-browser-search", which was once regarded as a classic business model by the search industry. like thatWith the advent of the mobile Internet era, the traffic portal has shifted, and the cross-application jump obstacles have made the information collection and integration ability that search engines are proud of fail. Sogou has also been gradually marginalized in a new wave, and the original search engine and input method have also withdrawn from the core competition circle.

Source: sogou

It can be said that since sogou announced the completion of the merger with Tencent on September 24th, 2021 and became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Tencent, sogou, as the afterglow of the PC Internet era, can already foresee what will happen next. That is to say, the core business is integrated into Tencent, and the marginal business is gradually retired, which is particularly obvious in the peak period of Internet companies’ cost reduction and efficiency increase, and the unprofitable business is ushered in a large-scale contraction.

After sogou shut down the intelligent hardware business across the board, there are not many business lines in sogou that we can see on the bright side. Maybe sogou Input Method will leave quietly one day.By then, we can only find traces of sogou’s existence in Tencent products that have been integrated into sogou business, such as WeChat Watch and Search.

The strong are always strong, and there is no "small but beautiful" in intelligent hardware.

While remembering, we still have to face up to the fact that sogou quit the hardware business, and what the rest of the players in the intelligent hardware track should do to live longer.

In sogou’s intelligent hardware subdivision track, Xiao Lei saw a common trend: the strong will always be strong.A small number of head brands occupy the vast majority of the market share. Only when emerging brands stand out in the brutal market competition can they survive on the track, which is more obvious in the fields of educational hardware such as children’s smart watches, dictionary pens and learning tablets.

 

Source: Counterpoint

However, the closure of sogou’s hardware business is attributed to many reasons. First of all, the smart hardware market is fiercely competitive, and emerging brands and new technologies are constantly emerging, which makes sogou’s smart hardware products face challenges in function and innovation. When innovation can’t keep up with the market demand, consumers will naturally choose products of other brands, which can be intuitively reflected from the sales situation.

Secondly, the functions of smart phones are becoming more and more powerful, and many functions that can only be enjoyed by hardware products are integrated into smart phones, which makes it difficult for a single function of hardware products to meet the market demand. Only when hardware products adapt to market changes and user needs in time and create more professional functions can they attract target groups.

In addition, the maintenance and update of hardware products need continuous investment. Most of sogou’s revenue comes from search business, so it is obviously unrealistic to ask it to invest in intelligent hardware business that doesn’t make much money regardless of the cost. Later, we also saw that sogou made business adjustments based on cost and strategic considerations.

In the intelligent hardware market, small brands often face more severe challenges than big manufacturers. The closure of hardware services in sogou reflects the shortage of small brands in technology, capital and market competitiveness.

In the rapidly developing science and technology industry, continuous technological innovation is the key to the survival and development of enterprises. Large factories usually have strong R&D teams and abundant technology accumulation, which can quickly respond to market changes and launch innovative products. In contrast, small brands have limited investment in technology research and development, and it is difficult to keep up with the technological progress of the industry, resulting in products gradually falling behind in function and performance.

Source: small degree

With the advantages of scale and good profitability, large factories can invest more resources in product development and market expansion. However, small brands often have limited funds and cannot afford high R&D and marketing expenses, which limits their development space to some extent.

However, this does not mean that small brands have no room for survival and development. In Xiaolei’s view, accurate market positioning and technological innovation with memory points are the few opportunities for small brands to find a foothold in the intelligent hardware market.

Specific to products, children’s smart watches do not have high requirements for entertainment functions. It is the real demand of parents for children’s smart watches to create various learning functions, more convenient instant messaging, similar positioning and other security functions around educational scenes. Dictionary pens need to be innovated in translation accuracy and ease of use. Supporting more languages and accurate translation are only entry standards, and what really separates the products is the use experience for different scenes. The recording pen may strengthen the integration with cloud services to provide more efficient recording and information management solutions.

Although many sub-tracks of intelligent hardware products have different development trends, from the general perspective, versatility, intelligence and scene are the directions that every track needs to pay attention to. Netease Youdao, Baidu Xiaodu, Iflytek and other brands have begun the deep integration of AI+ products/applications. The products and applications such as Xiaodu learning machine Z30 and AI general learning assistant "Youdao Xiaop" APP have derived new usage scenarios and capabilities with the help of AI technology, such as AI assistant with smarter interaction, AI learning and other functions.

Just as the mobile phone, computer, TV and other industries have experienced, the intelligent hardware industry will eventually usher in the AI process of each subdivided track. Lei believes that this is also the general trend of intelligent hardware development in the future.

From May 20th to June 30th, 2024, in the year of 618, the Great Promotion struck, and the six major e-commerce platforms, Taobao Tmall, JD.COM, Pinduoduo, Tik Tok, Aauto Quicker and Xiaohongshu, collectively "listened to persuasion", canceled pre-sale and frantically bargained!

Popular AI hard technology categories such as mobile phone digital, AI PC, smart home appliances, TV, small household appliances and air ice washing are gearing up, and the situation is fierce.

Lei Technology 618 Reporting Group will pay attention to the latest situation of e-commerce platform, the latest trends of AI hard technology brands and the new trends of e-commerce industry, so stay tuned and look forward to it together.

National Medical Products Administration standardizes the chaos in the medical and beauty market, and clarifies the management of water needles according to Class III medical devices.

  In the future, if a medical and beauty institution comes up with a product that is not a class III medical device and sells it to you as a "water needle", then this institution can directly pull the black. The Beijing Youth Daily reporter learned that National Medical Products Administration issued a notice on adjusting some contents of the Classification Catalogue of Medical Devices, and "Shuiguangzhen" was clearly regulated according to Class III medical devices.

  survey

  Water-light needle slightly corrects the fire.

  The market is "mixed"

  "Playing a water-light needle is equivalent to applying 1000 masks", "Aunt turns into a girl, only separated by a mixed water-light injection", "One needle can solve N kinds of problems such as hydrating and moisturizing, shrinking pores, lightening fine lines, whitening and removing spots" and "lunch beauty, minimally invasive without moving the knife" … …

  The hydrating and skin care effect of Shuiguangzhen has been aroused by various road networks, and it has become a hot item in the non-surgical "Light medical cosmetology" market, attracting thousands of women to be obsessed with it. The injection operation of Shuiguang needle is very convenient, and the whole process only takes 1-2 hours. It seems to be an "efficient and safe" entry-level medical beauty project. In Little Red Book, there are as many as 100,000 notes on planting grass related to "Shuiguangzhen" and "Shuiguangzhen Medical Beauty".

  At present, the price of a dose of water-light needle ranges from hundreds to thousands, or even tens of thousands of yuan. TF Securities pointed out that from the classification point of view, the scale of non-surgical medical beauty in China has expanded rapidly, while the proportion has remained at around 70%, which is higher than the global average. It is estimated that the scale of young medical beauty industry will exceed 200 billion yuan in 2023.

  Such a huge market is very chaotic. According to the data of "White Paper on Insights into Medical Beauty Industry in China in 2020", at present, the genuine rate of injections circulating in the medical beauty market is only 33.3%, that is, out of every three injections, two are illegal injections such as parallel imports and fakes.

  Chaos

  Medical dressings and cosmetics are on the scene one after another.

  "Shuiguangzhen" market is chaotic

  When the reporter of Beiqing Daily inquired about some medical beauty platforms, it was found that the types of water-light needles used on the platforms were far more than the "sodium hyaluronate for injection" that had been approved as "Class III medical devices". Not only that, the reporter of Beiqing Daily noticed that some products with the status of "Class III medical devices" have been approved for indications that are irrelevant.

  For example, a water-light needle named "Shu Wei Ke", the product name is "Medical Sodium Hyaluronate Gel", and it has also obtained the level of "Class III Medical Device", but its registered application scope is "Auxiliary for preventing and reducing postoperative adhesion of abdominal (pelvic) cavity surgery".

  The "true identity" of more water needles is actually a medical dressing, which can’t be used for injection, and some even only have the record number of cosmetics.

  The reporter of Beiqing Daily noticed that a kind of human collagen bio-repair dressing named "Kelijin" is a Class II medical device, and it has been approved as a product for healing damaged wounds, but it has been used as a water needle injection in some medical and aesthetic institutions. The product of "Yifuquan" water-light collagen is called yeast recombinant collagen liquid dressing, which is also a class II medical device. It has been approved for "adjuvant treatment of skin diseases caused by impaired skin barrier function and improvement of skin itching caused by dermatitis and eczema", etc., and has not been approved for injection. In September, 2020, it was reported that a Yueyang woman was disfigured when she was given a water-light needle, and the organization injected her with "Femander Youth Essence Enhanced" and "levorotatory VC". Among them, "Feimande" belongs to cosmetics, while the box of "levorotatory VC" does not have any Chinese logo.

  Not only that, on some e-commerce platforms, there are hundreds of cosmetics that are actually essence, cream and mask with the identity of "water needle". However, as a medical beauty project, the word "Shuiguangzhen" cannot be put on record through cosmetics. According to insiders, calling cosmetics "water needle" is nothing more than a gimmick made by merchants to improve sales.

  Supervision

  Clarify the identity of "Shuiguangzhen"

  Clear the "edge ball" behavior

  A few days ago, National Medical Products Administration issued an announcement on adjusting some contents of the Classification Catalogue of Medical Devices, which readjusted the classification catalogue of 27 types of medical devices. Among them, especially the catalogue of some medical beauty products has been greatly adjusted. According to the Catalogue, sodium hyaluronate solution for injection, which is the main component of "water-light needle", is used to inject into the dermis, and the skin condition is improved mainly through the moisturizing and hydrating effects of materials such as sodium hyaluronate, and it is regulated according to Class III medical devices.

  Previously, on November 9, 2021, National Medical Products Administration Medical Device Standard Management Center issued a notice on soliciting opinions on the adjustment of the Classification Catalogue of Medical Devices, which further clarified that Shuiguang needles were classified as Class III devices for supervision.

  Analysts believe that the adjustment of some contents of the Catalogue of Medical Devices will have a significant impact on the medical and beauty industry. The most obvious is to strictly control the use of non-compliant products by institutions. Through the classification of medical devices, the "edge ball" behavior in the market is gradually eliminated.

  According to the Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Medical Devices, enterprises engaged in the operation of Class III medical devices are subject to business license management, and business units need to hold a Medical Device Operation Record Certificate or a Medical Device Operation License, and the requirements for production technology and aseptic preservation will be much higher than those for Class I and Class II medical devices.

  Shuiguangzhen

  The so-called water-light needle is to inject hyaluronic acid (hyaluronic acid), collagen and other substances into the dermis of the skin by using negative pressure needle to make the skin firm and elastic. National Medical Products Administration Medical Device Technology Evaluation Center once said that water-light acupuncture is a kind of therapy that injects sodium hyaluronate as the main component into the superficial layer of facial dermis to improve the skin condition. As a skin-breaking injection project, water-light needles should be certified as Class III medical devices in National Medical Products Administration before they can be produced and sold.

  However, it takes a long time to apply for Class III business license of medical devices and a lot of experiments are needed, and the production company is required to have a quality management organization or full-time quality management personnel suitable for the scale and scope of business, which makes many businesses opportunistic.

Observation | Analysis of the present situation and trend of China’s medical beauty industry

First, the development process of China’s medical beauty industry

According to Article 2 of the Measures for the Administration of Medical Beauty Services, medical beauty refers to the repair and reshaping of human appearance and the morphology of various parts of the human body by surgery, drugs, medical devices and other traumatic or invasive medical techniques. Medical beauty is divided into surgical and non-surgical medical beauty according to whether surgery is needed, which are all carried out by registered professional doctors and medical experts.

Compared with the United States, South Korea and other big countries, China’s medical beauty industry started late, and its development process can be roughly divided into three stages:

Figure 1: The development course of China’s medical beauty industry

According to public information

From 1949 to 2008, marked by the establishment of plastic surgery for the first time, the domestic medical beauty industry began to sprout. In 1949, plastic surgery was established for the first time in China, which marked the germination of medical beauty industry in China. Since then, many public hospitals have set up plastic surgery departments, such as the Plastic Surgery Hospital of China Medical College. During this period, the main demand for medical beauty comes from passive plastic surgery such as post-injury repair and correction.

2008-2014 was the initial stage of the industry, and the upstream raw material manufacturers developed well, which led to the emergence of private medical institutions. This stage has three characteristics. First, a number of related companies are listed or listed, such as the listing of Huaxi Bio in Hong Kong in 2008 and the establishment of Huahan Plastic in 2010. Second, industry integration and mergers and acquisitions are frequent, and Langzi, suning universal and Fosun all deploy the medical and beauty industry through mergers and acquisitions; Third, the cooperation between China and South Korea has been further deepened, with Langzi and Evergrande as the representatives, and Korean technology and doctors have been continuously introduced and promoted.

Since 2014, with the help of capital, the industry has prospered and developed, and the "internet plus" wave has given birth to the Internet medical beauty platform. Driven by the mobile Internet and consumption upgrading, the Internet medical beauty platform has developed and gradually become the hub of the medical beauty industry chain. Since 2014, Internet medical beauty platforms such as New Oxygen, More Beauty and Yuemei.com have been favored by the capital market and have won several rounds of financing.

Second, the general situation of medical beauty industry chain

According to the relationship between the upstream and downstream of medical beauty products from manufacturing to serving consumers, the medical beauty industry chain can be divided into upstream raw material equipment manufacturers and downstream medical beauty institutions. The upstream raw material equipment, including instruments and equipment, injections and auxiliary materials, reach downstream private or public institutions through direct sales or consignment by manufacturers to provide corresponding services for medical beauty consumers. In addition, with the development of Internet technology and the penetration of consumer groups, the Internet medical beauty platform helps upstream manufacturers simplify distribution links by linking medical beauty institutions, and on the other hand, it can help consumers make efficient decisions. Related service providers include medical beauty industry information service providers, medical beauty APP, medical beauty insurance and so on.

Figure 2: Medical Beauty Industry Chain, compiled and drawn by the author.

Third, the status quo of China’s medical beauty industry

With the improvement of economic conditions, the continuous improvement of living standards, and at the same time, China consumers are influenced by the new trend of international medical beauty, and their awareness of medical beauty consumption is gradually awakening, and the medical beauty market is showing a rapid development trend. In 2019, the medical beauty market in China reached 176.9 billion yuan, and the CAGR was 28.54% in 2015-2019, which was higher than the same period in the world.

1. Upstream: the overall concentration of raw materials and equipment is relatively high, and the domestic substitution is accelerated.

Medical cosmetology can be divided into surgical category (plastic surgery) and non-surgical category (Light medical cosmetology), in which the market capacity of Light medical cosmetology, China has steadily expanded, accounting for a stable proportion of the overall medical beauty market. Surgical medical beauty projects include eyelid plastic surgery, nose plastic surgery, oral orthodontics, hair transplantation and other head and face projects, breast enhancement and other chest projects, as well as liposuction and other physical projects. Non-surgical medical beauty projects include injection projects such as botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid, facial rejuvenation projects such as photon rejuvenation, and other projects such as tooth beauty. China’s Light medical cosmetology market accounts for a much higher proportion of the overall medical beauty market than the surgical cosmetic plastic surgery market, and has been stable at around 65%-70% in recent years. In 2018, the market size of China Light medical cosmetology was 102.8 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 30.62%; In 2019, the market size of China Light medical cosmetology was 119.1 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15.86%.

In terms of raw materials in Light medical cosmetology, hyaluronic acid and botulinum toxin are the main injection fillers. According to ISAPS data, the plastic surgery projects using botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid reached 5.03 million and 3.3 million respectively, accounting for a total of 66%. According to the new oxygen big data, hyaluronic acid and botulinum toxin accounted for 66.59% and 32.67% respectively, accounting for a total of 99.26%.

Upstream products have high technical barriers and strict listing approval, resulting in a high concentration of upstream manufacturers. In China, it takes 3-5 years to get the certificate of hyaluronic acid class III medical devices, and it takes 5-8 years to get the registration certificate of botulinum toxin drugs. Therefore, the upstream medical machinery link in the United States has a high moat advantage with strict policies and technical barriers. Up to now, a total of 16 enterprises in China’s mainland market have the registration certificate of hyaluronic acid class III medical devices issued by NMPA, while only 4 enterprises have the registration certificate of botulinum toxin biological drugs, of which only one is domestic.

Hyaluronic acid (commonly known as hyaluronic acid) is a kind of natural macromolecular mucopolysaccharide with N- acetylglucosamine and D- glucuronic acid as structural units, which widely exists in vertebrate connective tissues and body fluids, and has unique viscoelasticity and excellent water retention properties. At present, medical grade hyaluronic acid terminal products mainly cover three application fields: medical beauty, orthopedic treatment and ophthalmic treatment. In 2018, the medical beauty market was larger than other application fields, reaching 3.70 billion yuan, and the growth rate was higher than other fields, with a compound growth rate of 32.3% from 2014 to 2018. In 2020, it is estimated that the market scale of medical beauty hyaluronic acid terminal products in China will reach 4.82 billion yuan.

China’s hyaluronic acid market is dominated by imports, and there is a large room for domestic substitution. At present, there are more than 20 kinds of hyaluronic acid products subdivided by National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). In terms of sales, the top four companies in the hyaluronic acid market are all foreign-funded enterprises, accounting for 68% of the total in 2019, and imported products dominate. In terms of sales volume, the sales volume of domestic hyaluronic acid has exceeded 40% in 2018, and domestic brands have gradually emerged. With the continuous improvement of cross-linking method and production technology of domestic hyaluronic acid products, the gap between domestic products and imported products in terms of concentration, degree of cross-linking, particle size, hardness and cohesiveness is gradually narrowing, and the domestic substitution process of hyaluronic acid will be deepened.

Botulinum toxin (commonly known as botulinum toxin): It is a toxic protein secreted by botulinum in the process of reproduction and has strong neurotoxicity. Botulinum toxin, as a nerve agent, can inhibit the release of acetylcholine from nerve endings by irreversibly cutting the neurotransmitter conduction complex, thus causing muscle relaxation and paralysis. However, its biggest application scenario is not in the medical field, but for medical beauty needs such as dynamic wrinkle correction, face-lifting and stovepipe. The overall market scale of botulinum toxin in China is in the stage of rapid growth. According to Limu Information Consulting, the market scale of botulinum toxin sold through formal channels in China has accelerated since 2015, reaching 3.92 billion yuan in 2018, a year-on-year increase of 32%.

Because the product is highly toxic, it is strictly regulated by the state. At present, there are only four official certifications in China (Hengli made in China, BOTOX imported from the United States, Dysport made by Ipsen in Britain and Letty Bo developed by Hugel in Korea). There are still seven botulinum toxin products in the process of applying for qualification. Looking around the world, the United States is the dominant company, Korean botulinum toxin producers all have the layout in China, and other manufacturers are researching botulinum toxin products, and Britain, Germany, Russia and India all have product layouts.

Laser beauty equipment: There are many kinds of equipment in the medical beauty equipment market, among which laser beauty equipment achieves the effect of plastic surgery through "light intervention" and becomes the backbone of the beauty medical market. Laser beauty instrument can be used in the fields of skin softening, nevus removal, wrinkle removal, hair removal and so on. According to public information, China’s laser beauty instrument market has developed rapidly. In 2019, the market scale was 2.84 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 19.73%.

Laser beauty instrument depends on imports, and domestic products are gradually recognized in the market. Although there are many laser medical beauty equipment enterprises in China, the mainstream equipment is mostly imported products. In the photoelectric equipment industry, foreign giants and local dominant enterprises are relatively mature, and the industry concentration is high. At present, the common suppliers of imported laser medical equipment include Alma in Israel, Lumenis in the United States, and Cynosure in the United States, accounting for 80% of the regular equipment and occupying a dominant position. The domestic medical and beauty equipment industry started late, and the technical foundation of enterprises is relatively weak. Domestic laser medical beauty enterprises have continuously enhanced their R&D capabilities, improved product quality, and gradually increased their market share through extension investment, mergers and acquisitions, and independent research and development. In terms of specific products, Wuhan Qizhi Laser’s photon therapeutic instrument and semiconductor laser depilation instrument, Shenzhen Peninsula Medical acne therapeutic instrument, Shenzhen GSD’s multi-element rf beauty instrument and other products are gradually recognized in the market.

2. Downstream: the entry barrier of cosmetic and plastic surgery hospital industry is low, and the distribution is unbalanced; The trend of "internet plus" is expected to reconstruct the ecology of medical beauty industry.

At present, in the market of medical beauty hospitals in China, service terminals are mainly divided into public plastic surgery hospitals and private beauty hospitals. Generally speaking, private specialized beauty hospitals and their clinics occupy most of the market space. However, due to the concentration of top experts, scholars and surgeons in the industry, the most advanced medical beauty resources and technologies in China, standardized management and high trust, public hospitals are still a very important part of the domestic medical beauty industry. In the future, with the advancement of medical reform, public hospitals are expected to regain their vitality in the market competition of medical beauty and jointly promote the rapid development of China’s beauty industry with private capital.

At present, medical and aesthetic institutions and professionals are mainly concentrated in the developed areas in the east. Although the market coverage has been extended to the central cities in the central and western regions, the market space of the second, third and third tier cities in the central and western regions with greater market breadth is still blank, and there is still a lack of channels for product promotion and business expansion, and it will take time to expand downward. On the whole, China’s medical beauty market has formed a layout with Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, Wuhan, Changsha, Chongqing and Chengdu as the center of gravity, which can be roughly divided into four sectors: East China, North China, South China, Central China and West China, among which North China, East China and South China account for the vast majority.

According to public information

Open up the relationship between medical and aesthetic institutions and consumers, and the Internet platform is expected to lead the reform of medical and aesthetic institutions. The main problem faced by private beauty hospitals is the high cost of sales and customer acquisition, and consumers are also faced with the embarrassment of asymmetric supply and demand information of medical beauty. The medical beauty APP platform mainly gathers users through the form of content+community+e-commerce or appointment referral, and builds a bridge for communication between B-end institutions, doctors and C-end customers, which improves the decision-making efficiency of users and reduces the marketing cost of institutions. From 2011 to now, dozens of medical beauty apps such as New Oxygen, Yuemei and Meituan Medical Beauty have emerged. Medical beauty App has purified the industry to a certain extent, promoted the medical beauty industry to transparency and standardization, and to some extent disintegrated the phenomenon of using the information of buyers and sellers to collect fees unequally. However, from the current point of view, the relevant medical beauty apps have not found a sustainable and stable profit model, and they still focus on business exploration in the short term.

Fourth, the future development prospects

At present, China’s medical beauty market is in the process of rapid development, and it faces the following outstanding problems: (1) The market is chaotic: raw materials and drugs of medical beauty are chaotic, and there are over-packaging of items and over-consumption of drugs; (2) The industry concentration is very low: the market share of head enterprises can only reach about 5%, and most of the markets are concentrated in some enterprises in the middle and long tail; (3) Medical resources can’t meet the demand: experts such as doctors and nurses, as well as hospital management talents are in short supply. With the rapid expansion of the medical beauty market, the medical resources in the industry will become more and more tense; (4) The supervision of the industry is still lacking: many medical and aesthetic supervision systems and policies are still in the process of exploration and improvement.

Since 2002, China’s supervision of medical beauty industry has become increasingly strict. The state has successively promulgated the management methods, institutional standards and classified management catalogue of medical beauty services, and promulgated the evaluation standards and detailed rules of medical beauty institutions. In 2016, China Plastic Surgery Association was established, and medical beauty service institutions officially entered the era of compliance. In 2020, eight ministries and commissions, including the Health and Health Commission, jointly issued the Notice on Further Strengthening the Comprehensive Supervision and Law Enforcement of Medical Beauty to crack down on illegal medical cosmetology and further rectify the medical beauty industry. With the increase of non-surgical items in the beauty market and the popularity of injection filling items, consumers’ complaints about after-sales service, quality and contract of medical beauty institutions have increased. Relevant departments should supervise medical beauty services and drugs in a targeted manner according to the development trend of the industry market, further promote the structural reform of the medical beauty industry, and improve the bad phenomenon of regaining customer marketing and neglecting professional medical care in the industry.

In the wave of "Yan value economy", everyone has a love of beauty, and the increase of per capita disposable income is an important factor to quickly enlarge the "love of beauty". In the medical and beauty industry chain, the domestic substitution of upstream raw materials and equipment has accelerated, while the downstream industries are more chaotic. However, the trend of "internet plus" is expected to reconstruct the ecology of medical beauty industry. At the same time, the state has issued a series of policies to continuously guide the industry to develop in a standardized and healthy way, and drive the industry to develop healthily.

Legal expert article: Where is the end of protectionism?

  Reference News Network reported on February 18, On February 15th, the website of the French newspaper Echo published an article entitled "Where is the end of protectionism? The author is Christian Desbois Searle, emeritus professor at the University of Paris I and vice president of the French Economists Association. The content is compiled as follows:

  At the end of January this year, the first Washington economic talks jointly sponsored by the French Institute of Economists and the French Embassy in the United States were officially held. The main topics discussed in the talks are the development trend of globalization and the challenges faced by international cooperation.

  Are we going to "go global"? Most of the globalization process has been difficult to reverse, and high-tech is a good example. The so-called "de-globalization" is just a split trend involving global trade or capital flow.

  It is in this case that the American Inflation Reduction Act has also become a topic of discussion. Because of this bill, the United States has made most of its major trading partners respond one after another.

  The signal given by the bill brings at least one positive aspect: the United States has begun to pay attention to the response to climate change again. But Europe will also be directly affected, because the attractiveness of funds in the United States has obviously increased. The position of many European companies has pointed to this.

  Europe is no longer as naive as it used to be, and responds by increasing government subsidies. Europe’s strategic thinking is clear: strike back at the subsidy policy of the United States and other unreasonable policies that make competition go astray. However, there is a real challenge behind this: if the subsidy policy is used too much, will there be problems in the European unified market? Many EU member States are hesitant to increase subsidies, because it is very beneficial to those big countries (especially Germany and France).

Different attitudes between small countries and big countries remain an important factor of division. However, the dominant "non-cooperation" situation in public opinion is actually far from being formed. Adam Posen, director of the Peterson Institute for International Economics in the United States, suggested that Europeans "go to the World Trade Organization to launch actions against the United States". In the face of rampant protectionism, this is a good opportunity to rethink how the WTO works and its power.

  When it comes to trade, everyone is used to targeting big trading countries. However, emerging countries and developing countries will be directly affected by the Inflation Reduction Act and other countries’ counter-measures The trade logic of the United States is to distinguish friendly countries from other countries, while Africa and many southern countries are listed as "other countries".

  However, the southern countries have been affected by the tightening of monetary policy in developed countries, and are facing capital flight, currency war and forced interest rate hikes.

  The Washington economic talks also mentioned a topic that the French Economists Association has been talking about for two years: the redistribution of the re-created SDR share, and the transfer of developed countries to southern countries. At present, Africa is expecting, France is pushing, and the US Senate is freezing.
