Russian political circles affirm Putin’s eight-year achievements and look forward to his presidency until 2023.






Profile picture: Russian President Vladimir Putin


    The British media recently revealed that some powerful people in the Russian government hope that Putin can re-serve as Russian president one year after the end of his presidency in March next year. The analysis believes that Putin’s political achievements during his presidency give him reason to become president again.


    Is expected to serve as president until 2023.


    Russian political "power tycoons" composed of former KGB officials expressed their hope that Putin will serve as president for at least another eight years, and even continue until 2023 if possible. Members of this power group include Igor Xie Xin, deputy director of the President’s Office, and Victor Ivanov, Putin’s senior adviser. These officials believe that once Putin leaves office, they are likely to be "kicked out" of the Kremlin.


    Last week, Putin expressed the possibility of becoming Russian prime minister in the future, which surprised his aides. However, according to the plan of the "power tycoons", Putin will return to the presidency after a short term as prime minister. Because there is a short interval between the second and third terms, this practice is not unconstitutional. Once in the Kremlin again, Putin will be able to continue to legally complete the other two presidential terms.


    A source close to Putin’s office said: "For more than two years, the outside world has always believed that Putin will withdraw from Russian politics after his term ends. But now earth-shaking changes have taken place. " "There is no doubt that Putin now wants to stay in politics, either as prime minister or return to the presidency. Such a move has also been supported by Russian political circles and most people. "







    On October 1, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke at the Eighth Congress of the United Russia Party held in Moscow. On the same day, Putin said that he would lead the United Russia Party campaign group to participate in the new State Duma (lower house of parliament) election on December 2, but he refused to become a member of the party. Xinhua News Agency/AFP


    Putin may amend the constitution after becoming prime minister


    Russia’s "power tycoon" had hoped to keep Putin as president by amending the constitution, but Putin himself did not agree with this practice. Putin said that he hopes to extend the term of a single president to five or seven years, but he will not amend the constitution during his presidency.


    It is speculated that Putin’s statement implies that he will amend the constitution after becoming prime minister. Theoretically, Putin can serve as president for another 14 years after the constitutional amendment. If this plan is finally realized, Putin will serve as Russian president for 22 years.


    Experts say that even as prime minister, Putin can remain in power, and all he needs to do is to transfer part of the president’s power to the prime minister through parliamentary voting. Zubcov, the new Russian Prime Minister, was previously regarded as a popular candidate for the next president. However, due to the lack of power base, Zubcov is likely to be just a "caretaker" of the government.


    The "Putin era" has just begun


    Nikonov, head of the Russian government think tank, said: "At present, it is only the beginning of the Putin era." The famous Russian political critic Pozner said: "Most Russians hope that Putin will continue to serve as president. They believe that Putin has brought them pride again. "


    During his presidency, Putin has brought great changes to Russia, avoiding the turmoil that occurred in Latin American countries in Russia. For example, in saratov, a small town near Moscow, commerce has gradually begun to be established, and manufacturing industries, including furniture factories, can also meet the daily consumption needs of local residents. These developments have solved the problems that have existed since the Soviet era. In addition, local universities are equipped with the best computers, and agriculture has also improved.


    One of Putin’s most important achievements is that the shadow brought by the Chechen issue has gradually dissipated under the guidance of a series of policies. Some media who "don’t like" Putin also admit that Grozny, the capital of Chechnya, has finally begun the process of reconstruction after 20 years of turmoil. The local tourism in Chechnya is also developing vigorously at present, and the tension caused by Chechen terrorists has become a thing of the past.


    The commentary believes that if the Russian people affirm Putin’s political achievements and Russia is indeed in the process of re-emergence, then Putin, as a successful president, has every reason to extend his term again. (Zhong Long)

Riding on a weather-beaten electric car, staying "online" for more than 10 hours every day and starting at 100 kilometers a day, this is the daily work of Li Jun, 43, as a flasher.

"In our line of work, there is no rest day. Basically, as long as you don’t go back to your hometown in Beijing, that is one word: dry." 2021 is the tenth year of his drifting career in the North, and the fourth year of his flash delivery. At first, there weren’t so many flashers, and the algorithm didn’t seem to be so "smart": starting from the East Fourth Ring Road where his home was located, he finally arrived in Shahe, which is far away from the Sixth Ring Road in the northwest. The system was confusing and he was "willfully" transferred to a good hometown outside the Sixth Ring Road in the southwest. Although somewhat helpless, Li Jun can only accept instructions and bite the bullet and "run a circle" around Beijing.

Later, with more and more peers and smarter algorithms, Li Jun also had his own dedicated service area. However, after working outdoors for a long time, the days of coming and going in the wind and rain are still indispensable. At first, the family members were worried about his safety, fearing that he might be in danger. After a long time, they gradually got used to it. For him, this job is relatively flexible and free, without too many requirements and constraints. As long as you keep a certain amount of orders, you can get a relatively fixed income. Although it is hard to go out early and come back late every day, I feel extremely fulfilled when I think of my parents and two daughters who stay at home.

This job also made him feel a lot of simple and sincere life flavor. When I first started as a courier, it was just in the heat of summer. A guest kept him waiting for a long time and finally called him three times before coming out. Just when he was a little upset and almost angry, the other party "changed" a bottle of iced coke from behind and said warmly: Master has worked hard in such a hot day. Hearing that sentence, all the anger in his heart disappeared. Running alone every day, he has to meet all kinds of people. And his biggest feeling is: there are still more good people. During the epidemic, Li Jun was also giving back to these human goodwill and doing his best to make more contributions. At the beginning of the epidemic, he saw a bill that had been hung up for a long time and no one answered it. Because the address was in the hospital, everyone was nervous. Later, Li Jun chose to take this order and did not accept the red envelope that the other party wanted to give. He said, "Even if I made a small contribution."

However, as he gets older, the old and new problems caused by the interweaving of the dual roles of "migrant workers" and "network contract workers" also make Li Jun feel a lot of guilt, anxiety and uneasiness. Although Hengshui, his hometown, is only over 200 kilometers away from Beijing-he can easily run the "working mileage" in less than three days, but the distance from his relatives makes it difficult for Li Jun to run into his little daughter’s heart again. Since she had to go back to her hometown to go to school at the age of 6, her children have been talking less and less, and even haven’t called her father for several years. Going out to work hard made Li Jun have no time to take care of his family, and he felt indebted to his parents and children.

Li Jun knows in his heart that he and the platform are only commercial cooperation, and he has not signed an employment contract, nor has he "five insurances and one gold". Working outdoors for a long time, the probability of accidents such as traffic accidents is relatively high. Unfortunately, will it be difficult to protect rights after a work-related injury? What should I do if there is a big change in the development of the industry and the basic income is not guaranteed? I am over 40 years old and have no old-age insurance. What should I do when I get old? These real problems arouse his anxiety about the future from time to time.

Solving these difficulties and problems has become his greatest expectation for this year’s two sessions: as a father, he hopes that the national education policy can pay more attention and support to left-behind children, so that they will be less worried and more at ease when they are away for a long time. As a laborer, he also hopes to get more comprehensive labor security, so that he can also have social security.

As Li Jun said, he is just "the most common migrant worker". Takeaway, vegetable delivery, errand boy, online car driver … In recent years, the development of new employment forms such as flexible employment has gradually become a climate, and many of the relevant practitioners are migrant workers. According to the data of the National Information Center, in 2019, the number of people providing services for the sharing economy was 78 million, a year-on-year increase of 4%. According to the analysis report on the current employment situation of new jobs released by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security in August 2020, the employment group of online contract delivery staff has grown rapidly, and the number of online contract delivery staff who "run on the road" every day has reached one million.

They run around all day, like the indispensable "capillaries" in urban operation. Due to the rapid development of the industry, the related labor and social security are still not perfect, and many people are facing problems similar to Li Jun. In this regard, first of all, it is necessary to standardize the employment relationship between flexible employees such as take-away workers and flash workers and the platform as soon as possible, so as to avoid the problems related to the rights and interests of workers, such as difficult identification of work-related injuries, lack of holiday protection and long working hours. In addition, it is necessary to accelerate the coverage of these groups by social insurance. Xu Xiaoying, a deputy to the National People’s Congress, once proposed to formulate a social security policy that can effectively protect the rights and interests of the labor force through institutional innovation in view of the characteristics of new employment forms such as flexible employment.

In 2021, Li Jun’s wish was simple: he hoped that he could take more orders every day and the whole family would be safe. The eldest daughter of this year’s college entrance examination can be successfully admitted to universities in Beijing and reunited with them as soon as possible. Li Jun’s goal is also a reflection of the simple wishes of many migrant workers.

Xu Jiayin was taken compulsory measures according to law, Hengda workout progress or affected

Rumors about Xu Jiayin finally settled. On the evening of September 28, China Evergrande issued an announcement saying that the company had received a notice from relevant departments that Xu Jiayin, the executive director and chairperson of the board of directors of the company, had been taken compulsory measures according to law for suspected illegal crimes.

On the morning of the same day, China Evergrande, Hengda Automobile, and Hengda Property, three Hengda companies, announced that the company’s shares had temporarily stopped trading at 9 a.m., and the three Hengda companies had resumed trading shortly thereafter.

The three companies collectively suspended their trading, which made the market speculate that something big might happen to Evergrande. Unexpectedly, the relevant rumors about Xu Jiayin’s situation came true.

Many industry insiders believe that, as the head of Evergrande, Xu Jiayin was forced to take measures, which will affect the progress of the workout.

Lawyers say this could be just the beginning

Since September 23, news of Xu Jiayin’s situation has been circulating in the public. On September 28, China Evergrande, Evergrande Automobile and Evergrande Property suspended trading on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, which caused many discussions.

Hengda did not respond to the reason why Xu Jiayin was taken coercive measures for suspected crimes.

Wang Yushen, director of Beijing Jinsheng Law Firm, analyzed that from the announcement, Xu Jiayin’s suspected crime has been "real" and coercive measures have been taken. This shows that the public security organs have relatively sufficient evidence of Xu Jiayin’s suspected crime, otherwise they will not take coercive measures against him.

Wang Yuchen further said that in the past, Hengda executives were investigated and now Xu Jiayin has been taken coercive measures, which all shows that Hengda has now entered a period of great crisis. Xu Jiayin’s coercive measures are probably just the beginning, and there may be a series of big moves in the future.

On the evening of September 16, the Nanshan Branch of Shenzhen Public Security Bureau announced that recently, the public security organs have taken criminal compulsory measures against Du and other suspected criminals of Evergrande Financial Wealth Management (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. If investors need to report the case, they can register the case.

It is understood that on August 31 this year, Hengda Wealth official Weibo announced that because the company’s asset disposal progress was less than expected and no asset disposal funds were obtained, the company was unable to carry out this month’s redemption, and subsequent redemption arrangements will be announced separately.

For the Xu Jiayin incident, in the opinion of Yan Yuejin, Chief Research Officer of E-House Research Institute, the announcement issued by Evergrande this time confirms the fact that Evergrande’s debt problem is not a simple financial and economic dispute, but involves a large financial default and illegal operation. From this perspective alone, the anti-corruption work of real estate enterprises began with the incident of Hengda’s accountability, and other real estate enterprises have no chance of getting lucky.

Evergrande workout or face variables

Xu Jiayin was forced to take measures, the ongoing Hengda workout, or face variables.

Zhang Hongwei, founder of Mirror Consulting, said that without a decision-maker, Evergrande’s workout is expected to be interrupted for a period of time, and things will be delayed. Relevant departments are expected to take measures soon, such as a large enterprise hosting Evergrande.

Wang Yuchen believes that Xu Jiayin’s coercive measures may affect Evergrande’s workout. After all, Xu Jiayin, as the chairperson of Evergrande’s board of directors, has a significant impact on Evergrande’s future direction and the future development of Evergrande.

In fact, before this, Hengda workout has seen bad news.

On September 24, China Evergrande issued an update on overseas workout information, saying that in view of the investigation of Evergrande Real Estate, the current situation cannot meet the eligibility for the issuance of new notes. This means that Evergrande’s workout may face variables.

The announcement shows that all new bills to be issued under the proposed restructuring must comply with the "Trial Measures for the Administration of Overseas Issuance of Securities and Listing of Domestic Enterprises" issued by the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the "Measures for the Administration of the Examination and Registration of Medium and Long-term Foreign Debt of Enterprises" issued by the National Development and Reform Commission according to their applicable circumstances. China Evergrande must prove that it meets the relevant requirements. In view of the above reasons, China Evergrande’s current situation cannot meet the eligibility for the issuance of new bills.

Previously on August 16, Hengda Real Estate announced in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange that it had received the "Notice of Filing" issued by the China Securities Supervision Commission, because the company was suspected of information disclosure violations, according to the "Securities Law of the People’s Republic of China" and the "Administrative Punishment Law of the People’s Republic of China" and other laws and regulations, the China Securities Supervision Commission decided to file a case against Hengda Real Estate.

The issuance of new notes is an important part of China Evergrande’s workout plan. In the March workout plan this year, Evergrande Agreement Arrangement Plan 1 stated that the agreement arrangement creditors can obtain new notes at a conversion ratio of 1:1 of their recoverable amount. The new notes have a term of 10-12 years and will be repaid over time. Under Option 2, the agreement arrangement creditors can choose to convert their recoverable amount into: 5-9 years New Notes to be issued by the company.

In addition, under the Jingcheng Arrangement, creditors will receive five new notes issued by Jingcheng with a term of 4-8 years for a total principal amount of $6.50 billion. Under the Space-based Arrangement, creditors will receive four new notes issued by Space-based with a term of 5-8 years for a total principal amount of $800 million.

In addition to the blockage of new note issuance, China Evergrande’s overseas workout-related meetings have also been postponed again. According to China Evergrande’s announcement released on September 22, China Evergrande’s sales since March 22 this year have not been as expected. Based on the current situation of China Evergrande and its consultations with its advisors and creditors, China Evergrande believes that it is necessary to re-examine the terms of the proposed restructuring to match its objective situation and creditors’ demands. Therefore, the relevant agreement and arrangement meetings on the proposed restructuring originally scheduled for September 25 and September 26 will not be held. This is the third postponement.

The market is also concerned about whether Xu Jiayin’s coercive measures will affect "Baojiaolou"? Wang Yuchen said that Evergrande has many subsidiaries all over the country, and each company is relatively independent. Therefore, for buyers who bought Hengda houses but encountered unfinished business, as well as investors who invested in Evergrande, they need to pay close attention to the next direction of Evergrande, but do not worry too much. Now that the state has taken action, and the "Baojiaolou" involving so many ordinary people, there should eventually be a corresponding solution.

Should dumplings be sweet or salty? Don’t argue, the answer is here!

[It is said that eating glutinous rice balls is the end of the year, and the sweet and salty parties of glutinous rice balls in the south and north are about to arrive at the "battlefield"! Do you like sweet or salty dumplings? 】
Today is the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month, and it is also the first holiday after the New Year. On this day, people enjoy lanterns and solve riddles on the lanterns, and at least eat Yuanxiao or Tangyuan.
Sweet or salty?
Seeing that everyone is immersed in the joy of the festival, it is peaceful, but the network is already boiling. The opening drama "Is the glutinous rice balls sweet or salty?" The sweet and salty party has begun to quarrel.
Salted dumplings and sweet dumplings
Generally speaking, Yuanxiao/Tangyuan in the north are mostly sweet fillings, including white sugar, bean paste, sesame and hawthorn, while those in the south are sweet, salty, meaty and vegetarian. So when it comes to salty Yuanxiao/Tangyuan, many people will think that it is unique to the south.
Sweet party:
Echowusmiles: What? Tangyuan and salty? Are you sure it’s not wrapped fish balls?Xixi: Is there a difference between sweet and salty dumplings? I have eaten for more than 20 years and have never heard of glutinous rice balls and salty ones.Mr__Pen9uin: Salted dumplings … I’d rather eat Lainiao Niuwan.Wang Ziyu _Prince: When I first ate it, I really felt like a dark cook.Dong Ge Fei Dong Ge: Northerners say they have never seen salty dumplings. You southerners really know how to play.
Salty party:
Yumo tutu: Salted dumplings are normal. My hometown often makes green vegetable buns in winter, which are also salty.Silly child: Those who have no meat and are unhappy should eat meat when they eat glutinous rice balls.You Xing _: Love salty dumplings! The kind wrapped in diced pickles, bamboo shoots and tofu minced meat.Small PP invincible forward: glutinous rice balls stuffed with shredded radish, delicious, you can try it when you have a chance.The spirit comes like a cloud _: There are always salty dumplings at home, without stuffing. When cooking, put chicken, radish, sausage, salted vegetables, fish paste, onion and coriander, and sprinkle some pepper when eating.Wen sihou: Chongqing people, grandma likes to wrap salty dumplings with diced bacon and tofu, as well as salted vegetables and minced meat.
Salted dumplings baked by netizens from Weibo.
"Black Sesame" is the most popular taste.
When everyone is still struggling to eat sweet or salty, in fact, the taste of glutinous rice balls is beyond your imagination.
In the past, the taste of glutinous rice balls was relatively simple, mostly traditional flavors such as bean paste, peanuts, black sesame seeds, five kernels and fresh meat. With the constant change of people’s tastes, there are various tastes of glutinous rice balls in the market, such as red dates, durian, oranges, coconut milk, strawberries, mangoes, durian, blueberries and other fruit-flavored glutinous rice balls are popular in the market, and there are even new scented teas such as osmanthus, roses, lilies, chrysanthemums and jasmine flowers, which firmly grasp everyone’s psychology of early adopters.
According to big data from JD.COM, the sales amount of Yuanxiao/Tangyuan increased by more than 110% in the first half of the Lantern Festival this year. On February 26th, JD.COM Yuanxiao/Tangyuan Super Single Product Day, nearly 180 tons of Tangyuan were sold, 20 times as much as last year’s Lantern Festival.
In terms of regions, the top ten regions in terms of sales amount are Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Liaoning, Sichuan, Tianjin, Shandong, Zhejiang and Hebei.
There are so many choices of flavors, which flavor is the most popular? The data shows that the black sesame stuffing on the eve of the Lantern Festival can be called "popularity", and the sales volume is the first. Followed by mixed flavors, peanut stuffing, fresh meat stuffing and bean paste stuffing. Among them, bean paste stuffing is also a proper "potential stock". In terms of sales amount, the sales of black sesame and bean paste stuffing both increased by more than 140% month-on-month.
The preferences of people of different sexes and ages can also be seen in the choice of the taste of glutinous rice balls/Yuanxiao. In the choice of many flavors, women prefer mixed flavors, fruit stuffing and peanut stuffing, and male users choose fresh meat stuffing, bean paste stuffing and black sesame stuffing.
From the age point of view, mixed flavor, fruit stuffing and peanut stuffing are the relatively preferred stuffing flavors of post-80s, while post-90s prefer fruit stuffing, mixed flavor and fresh meat stuffing, while bean paste stuffing, black sesame stuffing and peanut stuffing are deeply favored by post-70s, and traditional flavors such as bean paste stuffing, fresh meat stuffing and black sesame stuffing are still the favorites of post-60s.
Although many consumers are used to eating finished dumplings online, this year’s data also shows that netizens’ enthusiasm for making dumplings is not low. Even users in Beishangguang, who have a fast pace of life, are still willing to sit down and make dumplings/Yuanxiao before the Lantern Festival.
Yuanxiao = Tangyuan?
Seeing this, many people will have questions. We always discuss Yuanxiao and Tangyuan together. Are Yuanxiao and Tangyuan the same?
In fact, the two are not the same. The main difference between them is in technology. Generally, dumplings are eaten in the south and Yuanxiao is eaten in the north. Yuanxiao is "rolled" and the dumplings are "wrapped".
The stuffing of Yuanxiao should be made into four squares with uniform size in advance, and then wrapped with flour and rolled back and forth on the laundry basket. "Dip in water for three times and roll for three times before forming." Making glutinous rice balls is just like wrapping jiaozi. Just add water to glutinous rice flour and make it into balls. After "waking up", pinch a small ball and squeeze it into a round shape. Then put the stuffing in and knead it to shape.
Generally speaking, Yuanxiao in the north is handmade, which is more chewy and sold in street stalls. Tangyuan can be mechanically operated. Because of its convenient storage and delicate and soft taste, it is spread all over shopping malls and supermarkets. Because of the fast pace of life of modern people, the tastes of Yuanxiao and Tangyuan are similar, and people gradually confuse them.
I don’t know when, the market of Yuanxiao has gradually become smaller, and dumplings have long been "unified", so that in the eyes of young people, Yuanxiao has always been dumplings.
However, whether you mean to eat Yuanxiao or Tangyuan today, I guess someone will definitely answer: Northerners eat jiaozi no matter what festivals they have!
So, northerners, do you want to eat jiaozi or glutinous rice balls/Yuanxiao today?
