Self-heating instant chafing dish becomes "online celebrity". Experts suggest to formulate corresponding standards and strengthen management.

　　You can eat a steaming hot pot with a glass of cold water without fire or electricity. Since the beginning of this year, "self-heating instant hot pot" with an average price around 35 yuan has mushroomed on various e-commerce platforms. Specific to the name, in addition to "self-heating instant hot pot", there are "portable pot", "micro hot pot", "light boiled hot pot" and "instant hot pot". What is a self-heating instant hot pot? Do you need a corresponding production license to produce this hot pot? How to ensure food safety? The reporter learned about the issues of public concern.

　　Self-heating instant hot pot is popular now.

　　Low price, convenient use and monthly sales of more than 100,000 orders.

　　"An otaku is a must", "A must when traveling", "Spicy hot pot can be eaten if you want" and "4-8 people can have a party with friends and relatives just right" … Enter "self-heating convenient hot pot" on Taobao, and search for 1371 related stores and 20 brands. The manufacturers are mainly Sichuan and Chongqing, and the top seller is Chengdu catering hot pot brand. The price range of a single box is from 28 yuan to 38 yuan, and each box consists of a heating bag, a meat bag, a vegetarian bag, a wide flour bag and a butter bag. In an online store with high sales volume, the monthly sales exceed 100,000 orders.

　　According to a seller, self-heating instant hot pot means that you can enjoy steaming hot pot without fire or electricity, just with a cup of cold water. What is the principle of this? According to reports, the hot pot is divided into upper and lower layers. Before eating, you only need to put the ingredients with bottom materials into the upper layer, then put the heating bag composed of coke powder, activated carbon, salt and quicklime into the lower layer, and add cold water, which can immediately generate heat to heat the ingredients in the upper layer, so that the soup will boil and keep warm for 1 to 2 hours.

　　In addition to the hot online sales, there are also retail stores in many supermarkets. The reporter saw in a supermarket on Guanghua Avenue that the price of a brand of micro-hot pot was 35.8 yuan. A citizen who is choosing told the reporter that the self-heating instant hot pot is very convenient. After 15 minutes, you can eat it by pouring sesame oil. "It is simple, fast and has no smell of oily smoke. It is suitable for taking it on the road when traveling, and it tastes good!"

　　Favored by young people, the sales channel is mainly e-commerce

　　"Self-heating instant hot pot was produced in 2015, and it quickly became popular during the sugar and wine party this spring." Yuan Xiaoran, Secretary-General of Chengdu Catering Trade Association, introduced that it first rose in the circle of friends in Wechat business. As the self-heating technology is generally mature, more and more catering enterprises and food enterprises pay close attention to this field, and then gradually move towards e-commerce platforms and supermarkets such as Taobao and JD.COM.

　　At present, the consumer groups of convenient self-heating hot pot are mainly young people such as singles and office workers. Combined with young people’s consumption preferences, all manufacturers mainly use e-commerce channels. At present, well-known hot pot chains, including Dalongyi, Bashu Lazy, Xiaolongkan, Haidilao and Dezhuang, have "piled up" to launch various self-heating instant hot pot brand products. Most brands of instant hot pots can be bought on e-commerce platforms, and some can only be bought in physical stores or take-away platforms.

　　So, why is the self-heating instant hot pot so hot? The insiders believe that this "lazy hot pot" technology is relatively simple, easy to standardize and scale, and convenient for consumers to eat, so it suddenly became popular on social networks and quickly became a "online celebrity". In addition, according to the 2017 China Catering Report, every 10 yuan in China’s catering consumption comes from take-away. From the perspective of "lazy economy", the "decline" of instant noodles does not mean that the demand for instant noodles has decreased. As long as the products are iteratively upgraded in quality, they will naturally regain the favor of consumers.

　　"Follow the trend and trend. According to industry estimates, the convenient self-heating hot pot in the future will create an output value of 100 billion yuan a year. " The relevant person in charge of the Chengdu Food Chamber of Commerce said in an interview that the manufacturers of convenient self-heating hot pot in the market include hot pot catering enterprises, convenience food enterprises and condiment enterprises, among which there are nearly 100 "Made in Chengdu", and they are very optimistic about the prospect of convenient self-heating hot pot.

　　The industry is still in the initial stage, so it is necessary to ensure "safety and hygiene"

　　However, some insiders suggested that self-heating instant hot pot, as an innovative food category, is still in the initial stage. Due to the low threshold, most raw materials in actual production are assembled and produced in the form of OEM, and there is no industry standard to regulate it, resulting in the lack of standards for its production enterprises and self-heating hot pot products. A staff member in charge of food supervision of chenghua district Municipal Bureau of Market and Quality Supervision revealed that it is worrying that the self-heating instant chafing dish has not been included in the Catalogue of Food Production License. The reporter checked the 2016 edition of the Catalogue of Food Production Licenses issued by the State Food and Drug Administration and found that only fried instant noodles, instant rice, instant porridge, instant rice noodles, etc. were found in the catalogue of instant foods, and no self-heating instant hot pot was found in the whole catalogue. At the same time, reporters found on Taobao, JD.COM and other platforms that some buyers gave many bad reviews, such as "the meat in the hot pot bag stinks" and "a hair was found in the bag".

　　"As a category of innovative food, it basically showed a trend of barbaric growth when it first came out." Li Cheng, member of the Chengdu Food Safety Expert Committee and dean of the College of Food Science of Sichuan Agricultural University, told the reporter that hot pot is a special food in Chengdu and Chongqing, and it is necessary for relevant government departments to introduce relevant policies to ensure its healthy development while strengthening management.

　　Li Cheng suggested that the government should formulate a set of detailed rules on production, management and operation, and determine the standards, so that all self-heating instant chafing dish merchants can produce and operate according to the standards; At the same time, we should do more in-depth research, combine local characteristics, and try our best to ensure its characteristics; In addition, we must strictly implement the relevant food supervision regulations of the state, provinces and cities to ensure their safety, hygiene and reliability.

　　The reporter interviewed many hot pot merchants such as Huangcheng Mom and Xiaolongkan. Everyone agreed that self-heating hot pot, as an innovation and extension of hot pot food, is the crystallization of the wisdom of many hot pot merchants. Government departments should formulate relevant standards to protect and promote development and standardize the industry. "We will also proceed from ourselves and resolutely achieve food safety and hygiene." Kong Linglong, general manager of the administrative department of Huangcheng Mom, said.

　　"As far as I know, the relevant departments in Chengdu are formulating relevant regulations on the production license of self-heating instant hot pot." Lin He Yi, the media public relations officer of Xiaolongkan, told the reporter that it is expected that the introduction of the regulations will prevent unqualified manufacturers from disrupting the market, eliminate enterprises with poor quality and no food safety guarantee, and promote the healthy and orderly development of the whole hot pot industry.

　　In 2024, the "new gambling game" between Lei Jun and Dong Mingzhu once again ushered in the acceptance moment.

　　Dong Mingzhu took another step forward in building cars.

　　Enterprise investigation shows that on October 11th, Shanghai Gree Automobile Technology Co., Ltd. was incorporated, and its legal representative is Zhong Chengbao. At present, he is the assistant to the president of Zhuhai () Co., Ltd. and the general manager of Zhuhai Gree Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd.. The company has a registered capital of 20 million yuan, and its business scope includes research and development of auto parts, manufacturing of auto parts and accessories, manufacturing of industrial robots, and sales of industrial robots.

　　According to the equity penetration chart, Shanghai Gree Automobile Technology Co., Ltd. is jointly owned by Shanghai Jieyingtu New Material Technology Co., Ltd. and Zhuhai Gree Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. under Gree Electric. This move is regarded by the market as Gree once again overweight the layout of new energy car tracks.

　　In 2016, after Dong Mingzhu personally held shares in Zhuhai Yinlong New Energy (hereinafter referred to as "Yinlong"), he began to formally set foot in the car-making business. Yinlong gradually became a holding subsidiary of Gree Electric, renamed Gree Titanium New Energy, and deeply cultivated the business technology of new energy buses and lithium titanate batteries. However, in the eight years since it was acquired by Dong Mingzhu, Yinlong’s performance began to decline in 2017. As of June 30, 2024, the total debt of Gree Titanium New Energy was 24.786 billion yuan. Dong Mingzhu, who makes cars across the border, has been filling the "pit" of Gree Titanium. "The pit has a process of filling, which I think is very promising." Dong Mingzhu had previously said.

　　As early as 2013, Dong Mingzhu and Lei Jun gambled on their operating income ten years later. In 2019, Dong Mingzhu shouted to Lei Jun: "Don’t want 1 billion yuan, gamble for another five years": bet on who can make the world really fall in love with China manufacturing because of their products and technology; Second, bet on who can become the world leader in his own industry. In 2024, the five-year "new gambling game" between Lei Jun and Dong Mingzhu once again ushered in the acceptance moment.

　　"Building a car is a century-old track." Lei Jun, who started to build cars across the border three years ago, believes. For Dong Mingzhu, who also has her own topic, Gree’s car-making business failed to have the positive blessing of traffic like Xiaomi’s, but Miss Dong was unwilling to let go easily.

　　Eight-year "Car Bureau": Input, Loss and Acquisition

　　Dong Mingzhu and Lei Jun’s billion-dollar bet continued from air conditioning to building cars. Xiaomi, who has been building cars for three years, has become a dark horse in China auto market this year, while Gree, who has been working on the car-building track for eight years, has not yet entered the harvest period.

　　As early as 2016, Dong Mingzhu had the idea of building a car, only one year later than today’s star new car company Ideal and Weilai. At that time, Dong Mingzhu wanted to buy 100% equity of Zhuhai Yinlong New Energy with 13 billion yuan, but failed to pass the collegial meeting of shareholders on November 16th. In Miss Dong’s view, small and medium-sized shareholders are "shortsighted", and she firmly believes that "although we didn’t succeed in the acquisition, we must be a new energy vehicle."

　　Less than a month later, Dong Mingzhu still "put all your eggs in one basket" and took a stake in Yinlong with his personal assets. At the same time, she also brought Dalian Wanda, Jiangsu JD.COM Bangneng Investment Management Co., Ltd., () and other enterprises to jointly increase the capital of Yinlong by 3 billion yuan.

　　At that time, some new car-making enterprises in the new energy vehicle market began to emerge, and traditional car companies such as Geely, BAIC, Jianghuai and Changan were all testing new energy sources. Why does Dong Mingzhu prefer Yinlong, which was established only eight years ago?

　　Yinlong once made a difference in the new energy bus track. In 2016, Yinlong’s business was mainly the manufacture of new energy buses and lithium batteries. On the track of commercial vehicles, there is a blessing for the development prospect of new energy vehicles, and Dong Mingzhu is firmly optimistic about the future value of Yinlong. In the next two years, Yinlong proved Dong Mingzhu’s vision with sales. In 2017, Yinlong New Energy Bus ranked fourth in the country with an annual sales volume of 6,626 vehicles; In 2018, its sales volume increased to 7,278 vehicles, second only to Yutong and (), ranking third.

　　But the blow followed. In January 2018, Yinlong was repeatedly exposed to arrears in supplier payment, and there was a problem in the capital chain. By November 2018, Yinlong exposed its "dirty laundry" and publicly disclosed that its major shareholder Yinlong Group, actual controller Wei Yincang and former executive Sun Guohua were suspected of encroaching on the company’s interests by over 1 billion yuan. In 2019, the sales volume of Yinlong New Energy Bus declined in a cliff-like manner, with the annual sales volume of only 2,708 vehicles, down 62.76% year-on-year. The following year, Yinlong began to lose money continuously, and even began to be auctioned by Zhuhai Intermediate People’s Court. By the end of 2020, Yinlong’s liabilities had exceeded 22.5 billion yuan.

　　Although "Yinlong became a hole", Dong Mingzhu still insisted on buying Yinlong. In August, 2021, Gree acquired 30.47% equity of Yinlong New Energy for 1.83 billion yuan through public bidding through judicial auction. In addition, 17.46% equity previously held by Dong Mingzhu was entrusted to Gree, and Yinlong officially became a holding subsidiary of Gree Electric, and was later renamed Gree Titanium New Energy (hereinafter referred to as "Gree Titanium").

　　Gree’s blood transfusion also failed to rejuvenate the sales of Gree Titanium. In 2022, Gree Titanium sold 1,789 buses, down 11.65% year-on-year. In the same year, the sales of new energy buses in (), Suzhou Jinlong and () ranked in the top three with 11,515, 5,306 and 5,032 respectively.

　　Dong Mingzhu said in March 2024 that she believed Gree Titanium New Energy could turn losses into profits that year. According to Gree’s mid-year report in 2024, as of June 30, 2024, Gree Titanium New Energy had a total debt of 24.786 billion yuan and a net loss of 1.905 billion yuan. However, according to Gree Electric’s financial report, the net profit of home appliance business can still cover the loss of car-making business, but the commercial vehicle track, lithium titanate battery and hydrogen fuel power battery technology bet by Gree Titanium have not yet entered the harvest period.

　　For entering the field of new energy vehicles, Dong Mingzhu has publicly stated that he has no regrets. The newly established Shanghai Gree Automobile Technology Co., Ltd. once again confirmed Dong Mingzhu’s determination.

　　"The pit has a process of filling up, and the dawn is ahead."

　　The road of building cars is a new way out for Gree by Dong Mingzhu. Gree has been seeking diversified development since 2012, which is also a strategy that Dong Mingzhu vigorously promoted when he took over Gree.

　　She is keenly aware that the era of high growth of household air conditioners is gradually coming to an end. According to the data, from 2010 to 2015, the year-on-year growth rate of Gree’s operating income gradually declined. Dong Mingzhu’s task is to lead Gree to find a new growth curve. To this end, she has tried mobile phones, small household appliances, new energy, medical care and even prepared vegetable tracks.

　　Dong Mingzhu started with car air conditioning business. After personally taking a stake in Yinlong, Dong Mingzhu said that Gree Electric had been studying automobile air conditioning three or four years ago and had fully mastered the technology of this product. In 2017-2018, Yinlong, which was in full swing, made Dong Mingzhu see the hope of Gree’s transformation, and also planned to enter the new energy car track vigorously in the future.

　　Dong Mingzhu attaches great importance to the layout of battery business. Except for the new energy bus business, Gree Titanium has always chosen lithium titanate as its own technical route. In the field of new energy vehicles, lithium carbonate and its derivative battery products, Ferrous lithium phosphate and ternary lithium battery, are widely used at present. Dong Mingzhu’s "safer" lithium titanate battery has low energy density, so its application space in domestic transportation field is relatively small. "We chose this project not to make money, but to do it because of future development needs." Dong Mingzhu has publicly stated.

　　However, Gree Titanium, which insists on the lithium titanate battery track, also shows signs of compromising to the market. Enterprise investigation shows that Gree Titanium is laying out lithium iron phosphate batteries. On June 11th, 2024, Gree Titanium applied for a patent named "Lithium iron phosphate battery and its preparation method". Although Gree Titanium, which went out to sea in the past two years, has gained a small number of foreign orders for energy storage business and new energy buses, its technical investment has not been realized enough.

　　In the upstream and downstream of the car-making industry, Gree also intends to lay out. In 2022, Gree Electric invested RMB 3 billion to hold () 410 million shares, accounting for 38.78% of the company’s total share capital after issuance. The latter is a leading enterprise in the refrigeration component industry, and the company’s main business is divided into two parts: refrigeration parts business and refrigeration equipment business, and thermal management business of new energy vehicles. In the field of auto parts, the main business of Gree Intelligent Equipment established in 2015 is to provide GA-GF2755 CNC machine tools for high-speed and high-precision machining of new energy auto parts. Gree Intelligent Equipment is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gree Electric, which once provided support for Tesla parts manufacturing.

　　Li Bin, CEO of Weilai, said "Don’t build a car without 20 billion yuan", which is also applicable here in Dong Mingzhu. Judging from Dong Mingzhu’s car-making actions, it is still the main means to make a car with the revenue of the parent company as the guarantee, and vigorously purchasing and widely distributing it. However, the most fundamental purpose of building a car is to sell cars. Without new business income, Gree Titanium has also become the only loss source of Gree Group, and surviving is the top priority.

　　In terms of financing, Gree Titanium has no other sources of funds except the support of Gree Electric and Dong Mingzhu. According to the announcement, in December, 2023, Gree Electric announced that Gree Electric further increased its shareholding in Gree Titanium to 72.47%, and planned to wholly hold Gree Titanium in the future. Enterprise investigation shows that except for Gree’s increase in holdings, Gree Titanium has not gained any financing in the past five years.

　　It’s not too late for Dong Mingzhu to build a car, but when the industry took off, it failed to get dividends and gain market share. Instead, it gradually fell behind. "Gree Electric will not enter the field of new energy family cars for the time being." In February 2022, Dong Mingzhu said. The new energy bus track has never been the mainstream competition field of new energy. Limited by the demand for buses in the B-end market, it is unlikely that its market cake will become bigger. The report shows that the domestic new energy bus sales market will be around 40 billion yuan in 2022, and it is estimated that the market size will be 47 billion yuan by 2028.

　　The new energy bus industry leader appears, and its market share is further concentrated. According to the data of China Bus Statistics Information Network, in the first half of 2023, Yutong Bus ranked first in China, accounting for nearly 15% of the sales volume, followed by Foton Ouhui, BYD and Jinlong Bus, all of which accounted for more than 10% of the sales market. This also means that in the new energy bus track, Gree Titanium, which has not successfully run out of results, is under great pressure.

　　Consistent with Dong Mingzhu, in order to find new growth points, many home appliance industries are aiming at new energy vehicles. Midea and Haier, which have not officially built cars, also have automobile business layouts. () Through its subsidiary Weiling Auto Parts Company, it has officially entered the field of new energy auto parts. Haier Group focuses on using its industrial Internet platform and smart home technology to cooperate with car companies.

　　There are also many home appliances that directly enter the car. As early as 2010, Huang Hongsheng, the "king of color TV", has begun to lay out new energy commercial vehicles and passenger cars. In September this year, Skyworth Automobile, founded by Huang Hongsheng, announced that it would launch a modified model of its medium-sized SUV and the first A-class compact crossover product in 2025. According to the official data of Skyworth Automobile, the total sales volume in 2023 was 18,630 vehicles, with an average monthly sales volume of about 1,500 vehicles, while the monthly sales volume of zero-running vehicles in the same period was about 12,000 vehicles. On September 17th, this year, Sharp presented a conceptual model "LDK+" of an electric vehicle (EV) in Tokyo, Japan, and said that Sharp will officially launch the pure electric vehicle business.

　　Compared with peers, there is a certain gap in the performance of Gree Titanium. However, Dong Mingzhu is still optimistic. At the Gree shareholders’ meeting in June 2023, "there is a process of filling the pit, which I think is very promising." Dong Mingzhu said, "The dawn (of Gree Titanium) is ahead."

　　The knockout round of cross-border car-building has already started. When will the stones invested by Dong Mingzhu stir up water?

　　[Pacific Auto] On May 11th, we got the information of the second generation (|) from, which had previously made its debut in 2024. The new car is positioned as a new hard-core intelligent driver, adopting a brand-new "ecological function" design language, and has been upgraded in terms of intelligence and three-electric system.

On Nov. 13, on the occasion of the first fire publicity month after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, a fire art exhibition with the theme of "Fire Guard: Saluting Firefighters in the New Era" was held in Beijing’s Songzhuang Art District. On display is the large-scale installation art work "Fire Guard" created by the famous sculptor Huang Jian at the invitation of the fire department.

　　It is reported that the sculpture work of "Fire Guard" was exhibited at the "2022 National Fire Protection Merchandise Exhibition" and became a highlight of the exhibition, which was well received by firefighters.

　　Huang Jian introduced: I am very honored to be invited to participate in the 2022 National Fire Protection Merchandise Exhibition, which gives me the opportunity to learn and pay tribute to the people’s defenders in peacetime. I accepted this creative task on October 2. With great respect for the fire rescue workers, after more than 20 days and nights of hard work, I finally completed this 3.8-meter-high installation art work "Fire Guard", which integrates sculpture art and high-tech special effects. Here, I would like to express my special thanks to my friends who fought with me.

　　"Fire Guard" uses the emblem of the Chinese fire rescue team as a creative element to create a glorious image of a young, high-spirited, heroic and vigorous fire rescuer in the new era:

　　Like an eagle spreading its wings, holding its axes high, the water gun soaring into the sky, the team emblem shining like a shield, the party emblem and 119, fully demonstrating the firefighters’ loyalty to the party, strict discipline, going through fire and water, and dedication to the people; at their feet is the land of China surrounded by olive branches, symbolizing that firefighters guard the safety of the motherland day and night, and are strong guardians of the safety of people’s lives and property!

　　The main body of "Fire Guard" is fire red, the background is flame blue, the base adopts high-tech simulated fire, and the top is spewing water. Red and blue, fire and water, art and technology complement each other, playing a heroic hymn of fire rescue in the new era, which will become the spiritual symbol and artistic symbol of China’s fire rescue.

　　[Global Times special correspondent in Russia and Germany Wang Jiabo Aoki Global Times reporter Gu Di Liu Yupeng Yu Xiang] According to the Russian newspaper Kommersant, a spokesman for the Russian Liberal Democratic Party said that at 4 pm on the 8 th, the party held a rally in Manige Square in Moscow to protest the 25th anniversary of the signing of the Belovezh Agreement. Twenty-five years ago, they held a rally in this square to protest against the disintegration of the Soviet Union. The Russian Communist Party said that it would hold a hearing in the small hall of the State Duma to discuss the Belovezh Agreement and Yeltsin’s overall policy. Zyuganov, chairman of the Russian Communist Party, suggested that the Yeltsin Center should be banned from activities in Russia, because it was Yeltsin who caused the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Kashin, vice chairman of the Central Committee of the Russian Communist Party, said that a large-scale event will be held on the birthday of Stalin on December 21, during which the Belovezh Agreement will be discussed to denounce the acts that caused the disintegration of a powerful country. However, other political parties, including the ruling United Russia Party, have not announced any activity plans.

　　On December 8, 1991, Shushkevich, then chairman of the Belarusian Supreme Soviet, received Russian President Yeltsin and Ukrainian President kravchuk at the hunting palace near Belovezh and held secret talks. The three men signed the Belovezh Agreement on the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the establishment of the Commonwealth of Independent States, declaring that the Soviet Union no longer exists "according to international law and geopolitical status quo". Then on December 25th, Soviet President Gorbachev announced his resignation, and the Soviet Union officially disintegrated.

　　Russian Interfax news agency reported on the 7th that Gorbachev said in an interview with the agency that the disintegration of the Soviet Union was caused by the personal ambition and power desire of the participants in the Belovezh Agreement. At that time, the Soviet Union might have survived, but he failed to stop those who were eager to split the country. "I am saddened by the disintegration of the Soviet Union. I called for the preservation of the Soviet Union everywhere, but the people remained silent. It is normal for someone to want to be president. At that time, Russian leaders took the lead in splitting the Soviet Union. " Regarding the role played by the West in the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Gorbachev said that all the faults should not be blamed on the Western countries. When the West saw what happened in the Soviet Union, they were happy to rub their hands there, not only watching, but also participating.

　　According to a poll released by the Levada Center of Russia, an independent investigation agency, 51% of Russians think that the disintegration of the Soviet Union could have been avoided, 56% of the respondents feel sorry for the Soviet Union’s disappearance, and only 29% of the respondents think that the disintegration of the Soviet Union is inevitable. When explaining the reasons for their negative attitude towards the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the two options most recognized by the respondents were that the unified economic system was destroyed (53%) and people lost the feeling that they were citizens of a great country (43%). 29% of the respondents believe that the reason for the disintegration of the Soviet Union is that "the leaders of Russia, Ukraine and Belarus signed the Belovezh Agreement irresponsibly and without foundation", and 23% saw "the conspiracy of external hostile forces" in the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Gora zhdanov, deputy director of the Levada Center, said that although the nostalgia for the Soviet Union in Russian society is decreasing, it is still very common among the elderly.

　　Sputnik news agency & radio said on the 8th that the results of the "Satellite Viewpoint" poll showed that 69% of Germans, 55% of French and 51% of Italians believed that after the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991, the United States became the only superpower, but it failed to play the role of a world leader. Only 24% of German respondents, 35% of French respondents and 42% of Italian respondents believe that the United States is qualified for this role.

　 　 "Our car uses a timing chain, which is safe to use, will not break, and will be maintenance-free for life. Compared with the model using a timing belt, it can save thousands of dollars every 60,000 kilometers. Sir, why don’t you consider it?" After listening to the sales, it is estimated that many people choose cars and go to the timing chain. But is the timing chain really that magical? Let’s look down.

　 　 Before we get to the point, let’s talk about what timing is. Timing is the time when the intake valve and exhaust valve of the engine open. When the intake valve opens, fresh air will enter the cylinder alive, and at this time, the exhaust valve will also discharge the exhaust gas, and the opening time of the intake valve and exhaust valve must coincide to some extent. Only when the whole process is coherent can the engine have good power output, so timing is very important for the engine.

　 　 What can ensure the stable operation of the timing system is what we usually call timing belt and timing chain. They all serve the timing system. Why do you say that the chain is better than the belt? What’s the difference between the two brothers? Let’s talk about the advantages and disadvantages of timing belt and timing chain.

　 　 It’s also true that others say that the timing chain has a strong and durable innate advantage, so you don’t have to worry about it being "in disrepair", and you don’t have to worry about it falling off the chain when you are in a hurry, even if your car is out of warranty in a 4S shop, you don’t have to miss it like a timing belt.

　 　 But the old saying goes well: "Nothing in this world is perfect". Therefore, the timing chain is not good everywhere. When the total mileage of your car reaches 100,000 kilometers, the shortcomings of the timing chain begin to appear. 100,000 kilometers is a hurdle. Before 100,000, it was beautiful, and after 100,000, it was an old lady.

　 　 At this time, the friction between the timing chain and the transmission wheel is getting more and more serious, and you can clearly hear the metal friction sound coming from the engine compartment. If you want to replace the timing chain, the money you saved for 100 thousand kilometers will be wasted, and you have to put some in it.

　 　 So the timing belt will be much more affordable, and the sound of rubber products rubbing against metal is very small. After passing through the sound insulation layer of the engine compartment, the noise can be ignored. Moreover, the friction between rubber products and metal is also small, and the transmission resistance of the belt is small, which can ensure the normal power output and acceleration performance of the engine. It should be noted that we should also take care of our own hands and feet, and bad habits such as frequent rapid acceleration and high-speed gear shifting will affect the service life of the belt.

　 　 The life of the timing belt is limited, and when it is exposed outside the engine, the surface of the belt will age, crack, belt slip and other problems will follow. The aging and fracture of the belt will lead to the engine top valve, and seriously, the valve, piston and crankshaft will be scrapped.

　 　 Editor’s comment:Timing belt and timing chain have their own advantages and disadvantages, depending on how you choose. I think if the timing chain can solve the problem of noise, it is not a bad choice to use the timing chain for ordinary family cars. Isn’t it a good idea to buy a car? What do you think?

[Text/Observer Network Xiong Chaoran] Because of fear that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine will escalate again, the United States has been reluctant to provide Ukraine with or approve the use of long-range weapons that can attack targets in the hinterland of Russia. However, just as US President Biden’s term of office was about to end, he suddenly "gave the green light".

According to CNN local time on November 17th, citing two American officials, Biden has authorized Ukraine to use American long-range weapons in Russia, and this decision comes at a time when the Ukrainian army launched a surprise attack on the Kursk region of Russia this summer, and the Russian army has deployed nearly 50,000 troops to the region.

For Biden’s decision, Ukrainian President Zelensky responded on social media that "actions don’t depend on words, and missiles can speak for themselves". A spokesman for the Russian Foreign Ministry reiterated the "strongest stance" made by Russian President Vladimir Putin in September this year-this decision means that the direct participation of the United States, Europe and NATO in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict will greatly change the nature of the conflict.

Vladimir Zabarov, the first vice-chairman of the International Affairs Committee of the Russian Federation Council, even described it as an "unprecedented step" towards the Third World War on November 17, and Russia is bound to respond immediately. He also criticized the United States, especially the Democratic Party, for using Biden, the outgoing old man, to do this just when Trump’s return to power may bring some "peace", and he will no longer be responsible for anything in two months.

CNN also pointed out that although Biden hesitated for a long time, his "late approval decision" highlighted its "unusual symbolic significance". While Trump was constantly creating his own "peacemaker", Biden took over the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and added more risks.

An American official said that these long-range weapons are currently mainly used in the war in the Kursk region. The United States does not want to see Ukrainians lose Kursk as a "potential bargaining chip" and hopes that the Ukrainian army will hold Kursk as long as possible. After seeing the Russian offensive, Biden and his aides worried that this might lead to a dangerous new stage of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.

It is reported that the United States has been considering the decision to allow Ukraine to use the American-made long-range army tactical missile system (ATACMS) in Russia for several months. American officials have always been divided on this issue. Some people are worried that this will lead to an escalation of the conflict, while others are worried that the US military’s weapons inventory will be reduced.

In the first two years of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the United States even refused to provide Ukraine with long-range ATACMS, partly because of war preparedness concerns, because this powerful missile takes time and complex components to produce. However, Biden secretly approved Ukraine to use long-range ATACMS missiles in its territory in February this year, and delivered the missiles in April.

On August 6 this year, Ukraine sent a group of military personnel into the Kursk region of Russian territory, which was the largest attack launched by Ukraine on Russian territory since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. In a video speech on the evening of August 10th, admitting for the first time that Ukrainian troops are attacking Russian border areas, Zelensky called on western allies to make a "strong decision" and lift the restrictions on Ukrainian troops using western weapons to carry out in-depth attacks on Russian territory. Since then, he has also constantly "pressured" the United States and the West on this issue.

During his visit to the United States in September this year, when Zelensky met Biden at the White House, he brought a detailed list, which listed that he hoped to strike targets in Russia with long-range missiles provided by the United States. This list is also a key part of Zelensky’s so-called "victory plan".

Now, with Biden’s "green light", Zelensky responded on the social media "telegram": "Today, there is a lot of discussion in the media about our permission to act. Action is not achieved by words. Such a thing does not need to be announced. The missile will speak for itself. "

In addition, regarding the provision of long-range missiles to Ukraine by countries such as Britain and France, we are actually waiting for the decision of the United States. Earlier, former British Prime Minister Johnson and five other former British defense ministers urged Prime Minister Stamer that Britain should allow Ukraine to use long-range missiles to attack Russian deep targets even without the support of the United States. Today, Biden’s latest decision seems to allow countries such as Britain and France to relax this control, but Britain and France have not responded yet.

On August 27th, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov said that the West was "playing with fire" by considering allowing Ukraine to use its missiles and other weapons to strike targets in Russia at a long distance. He warned that World War III would not be confined to Europe.

After major US media reported that Biden had approved Ukraine to use long-range weapons in Russia, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Zacharova responded concisely on November 17th local time, saying that "Russian President Vladimir Putin has expressed his views on this matter".

In the face of persistent speculation by the United States and Britain, Ukraine will be allowed to use long-range weapons to attack the Russian hinterland. On September 12, Putin said that lifting the restrictions on the use of western weapons against Ukraine will greatly change the nature of the conflict, which means that the United States and its allies are directly involved in the conflict with Russia and will be "appropriately responded" by Russia.

"Therefore, this is not a question of allowing the Ukrainian regime to use these weapons to attack Russia, but a question of determining whether NATO countries are directly involved in military conflicts." Putin said: "If this decision is made, it will mean that NATO countries-the United States and European countries-will directly participate in the Ukrainian conflict. This will be their direct participation. Of course, this will greatly change the nature of the conflict. "

Reuters commented that this is Putin’s "toughest speech" on the issue of upgrading aid to Ukraine by western countries so far.

The Tass news agency reported that Vladimir Zabarov, the first vice-chairman of the International Affairs Committee of the Russian Federation Council, pointed out on November 17 that it was an "unprecedented step" for the United States to authorize Ukraine to carry out long-range strikes against targets in Russia, which would lead to the outbreak of World War III, but Russia would respond immediately.

"I don’t think they will catch us off guard, I believe that. However, this is an unprecedented step. It is a big step towards the outbreak of the Third World War, and Americans will use the hand of an outgoing old man to do this. He will no longer be responsible for anything in two months. "

"It is futile for outgoing Democrats to make such dirty provocations," Zabarov said. "They have substantially reduced Trump’s freedom to start talking about peace. Many people have expressed the need to stop the conflict, and even Scholz has begun to call our president. Some positive actions have begun."

In another analysis report, CNN pointed out that just as Ukraine had asked the United States for Haima rockets, Abrams tanks and F16 fighter jets, Biden’s decision to allow Ukraine to use American long-range missiles in Russia followed a familiar pattern-it was almost too late to approve it.

CNN mentioned that there are several reasons for Biden’s delay in approving:

According to the report, however, the White House is keen to speculate on the so-called "North Korea’s military aid to Russia" recently, and claims that this move is the US response to Russia’s escalating situation. In Biden’s view, "North Korea’s military aid to Russia" is an upgrade, and his "green light" is a response to this upgrade.

However, CNN believes that because the action approved this time is "of unusual symbolic significance", Biden’s delay for so long has made his latest decision "more effective" and increased the risk of taking over the Russian-Ukrainian conflict after Trump took office. As we all know, Trump has repeatedly advocated his "peacemaker" and threatened to "end the Russian-Ukrainian conflict within 24 hours", but his "bet" on taking over this conflict has increased significantly.
