39-year-old Vice Governor of Xie Ru

　　From the deputy director, deputy magistrate and deputy mayor of the Institute of Rural Economics of Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences to the deputy governor, she only spent 11 years.

　　Xie Ru

　　Born in July 1968, Zhejiang, without party affiliation.

　　July 1990-March 1997 Assistant Research Fellow, Institute of Economics, Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences

　　1997.03-2001.07 Deputy Director of Rural Institute of Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences

　　2001.07-2007.06 Vice Mayor of Jingdezhen City

　　2007.06-2008.01 Dean of Jiangxi Institute of Socialism

　　Since January 2008, Vice Governor of Jiangxi Province

　　Deputy Director Xie Ru

　　In 1986, He Yun, a young teacher from the Economics Department of Jiangxi University, served as the head teacher of the 86-level political and economic class. 　 　

　　There are only five or six girls in this class, and Xie Ru is the class cadre. "She was almost what I expected. She was very capable, studied hard, and did well in her class. Later, she also served as a student cadre in the school student union." He Wei said.

　　In 1990, when Xie Ru University graduated, a staff member who was working in the Personnel Department of Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences remembered that Wang Hongyuan, head of the Department of Economics of Jiangxi University, recommended Xie Ru to Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences.

　　For example, Yang Rongjun, who was over 70 this year, was the director of the Institute of Rural Economics of Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences at that time. He felt that Xie Ru’s research ability was good, and he had achieved good results in the research on Chen Yun’s economic thought. "She publishes many articles every year, which is more prominent among young comrades."

　　"Xie Ru is very easygoing and caring for his family." Gao Ping, Xie Ru’s colleague at that time and now director of the Rural Economic Research Institute, said.

　　Xie Ru is an active member of the Party. Yang Rongjun recalled that this process was very smooth and would be approved soon. At this time, the United Front Work Department of Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee proposed that it hoped to train some outstanding young non-party people from intellectuals.

　　"At that time, when I thought of Xie Ru, I made suggestions to the leaders in the courtyard. The party Committee of the government said that Xie Ru was preparing to join the party. I was also worried that she would have concerns." A person who worked in the personnel department at that time said. Yang Rongjun, the director, gave Xie Ru organizational suggestions, and Xie Ru followed the arrangement of the organization.

　　Xie Ru spent nine years in Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences. During these nine years, she published her personal academic monograph "A Brief Introduction to the New China Farmland System" and more than 800,000 words of scientific research results, and won more than 20 awards of various levels.

　　During this period, Xie Ru was promoted to be the deputy director of the Institute of Rural Economics of Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences.

　　Xie Ru, deputy magistrate

　　In 1999, Xie Ru came to Fuliang County from Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences as a deputy magistrate.

　　"She just came here from the Academy of Social Sciences at that time. She is not very familiar with the grassroots, but she is very modest. She often goes deep into rural farmers to investigate and study. She has no bureaucracy and is easy to get along with everyone." Director Zhang of Fuliang County Government Office told this reporter.

　　People in contact with Xie Ru by Fuliang County Government felt that she had a good theoretical foundation. Director Zhang recalled that Xie Ru liked reading and writing. "Walking past her office, I often see her reading a book."

　　An old colleague said that Xie Ru had talked with him. Her child was young and her husband was a reporter. Everyone was very busy, and sometimes they didn’t have much time to take care of their family, which was very important to her. "That’s the truth. People of our age all feel this way."

　　Director Zhang introduced that after Xie Ru’s term in Fuliang County arrived, she was going to pack up and go back to Nanchang. Suddenly, she received a notice telling her not to go because she was identified as a candidate for the vice mayor of Jingdezhen. "She became a deputy mayor from the deputy county magistrate, which was very sensational at that time."

　　Some people familiar with the matter recalled that when provincial leaders visited Fuliang County, they were deeply impressed by Xie Ru.

　　Yang Rongjun said that after Xie Ru arrived in Fuliang County, she had participated in the competition for posts such as Vice President of Jiangxi Agricultural University and President of Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences, which left an impression on everyone. "Although I didn’t succeed in the end, I entered everyone’s field of vision and knew that there was such a talent."

　　Vice Mayor Xie Ru

　　While serving as the deputy mayor of Jingdezhen, Xie Ru was admitted as a doctoral student in industrial economics at Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics.

　　"She is not an on-the-job doctoral student. She was admitted to the national unified examination, which is very difficult." Professor Shi Zhongliang, Xie Ru’s doctoral supervisor and then president of Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics, told this reporter.

　　Xie Ru once told Shi Zhongliang that she insisted on studying for two hours every day no matter when she was busy. Xie Ru was working in Jingdezhen and his wife was working in Nanchang. So she took the child to Jingdezhen, sent it to a teacher’s home, and asked the teacher to take care of it. She works during the day and studies at night, and basically does not rest on weekends.

　　"There are not many people admitted to doctoral students in the position of deputy mayor in the country, and they are lesbians. It is really not simple." Shi Zhongliang was very satisfied with his disciple. "I am very strict with her and have no special care."

　　Speaking of the original intention of Dr. Xie Ru Kao, Professor Shi Zhongliang introduced that Xie Ru had many ideas about regional economy and attracting investment after he took the leadership. "She thinks it’s better to improve what she studied originally. I said yes, you can go to further study."

　　Xie Ru’s doctoral thesis is "Research on the Management Right of National Scenic Spots". "As the leader in charge of tourism at that time, she reported the project below, and she had to make a judgment. Such research can help her work." This paper won the second prize of Jiangxi Social Science Outstanding Achievement Award in 2007.

　　Shi Zhongliang felt that his disciples were somewhat different from others in being an official. "For example, Xie Ru never drinks, which is rare in officialdom."

　　Vice Governor Xie Ru

　　In 2007, Xie Ru returned to Nanchang from Jingdezhen and became the president of Jiangxi Institute of Socialism. Many people are not surprised at this time. They regard this transfer as a signal that Xie Ru will continue to be promoted.

　　"She soon became familiar with the United front work, and she was very studious." Director Zhou of the office of Jiangxi Institute of Socialism said.

　　In January 2008, Xie Ru was elected as the vice governor of Jiangxi Provincial People’s Government, which attracted national attention.

　　He Jun received a New Year card from Xie Ru, the vice governor, before the Chinese New Year. Over the years, she has received New Year cards from Xie Ru, deputy director, Xie Ru, deputy mayor and Xie Ru, all of which belong to student Xie Ru.

　　"She is now inspecting in Zhejiang." Shi Zhongliang saw his students on TV. He Yun said that she often learned about Xie Ru’s "whereabouts" through the media.

　　When Xie Ru met the teacher after becoming the vice governor, "she talked about some of her work experience. She feels that the position of deputy governor is a heavy burden for young people like her. To get everyone’s understanding and recognition, you need your own efforts. "

　　"Such a young woman can be a deputy provincial leader. I think this is a great progress for us in China." Shi Zhongliang said.

　　Many people will think that Xie Ru is too smooth. The views expressed by all the people interviewed seemed so familiar: when the opportunity came, Xie Ru was the one who made more preparations.

　　Xie Ru’s success in official career seems surprising. After careful analysis, it is not: female, non-partisan, intellectual, and she accounts for three of the four standards of "ignorant girl" in political jokes. More importantly, as the youngest vice governor said, she is a person who loves life and is optimistic, a person who can filter out worldly impetuousness and maintain a quiet state of mind, and a person who can do everything wholeheartedly and down-to-earth. This kind of official should feel the feeling of "shun". (Southern People Weekly Wei Yi)

　　Cctv newsAt 15: 00 on April 20th, the People’s Bank of China held a press conference and answered questions on the financial statistics of the first quarter of 2023.

　　Ruan Jianhong, director of the Survey and Statistics Department of the People’s Bank of China, said that at the end of March, the balance of M2 was 281.46 trillion yuan, up 12.7% year-on-year, 0.2 percentage points lower than the end of last month and 3 percentage points higher than the same period of last year, and the growth rate of M2 remained at a high level. The balance of M1 was 67.81 trillion yuan, up 5.1% year-on-year, 0.7 percentage points lower than last month and 0.4 percentage points higher than the same period of last year.

　　The growth rate of M2 is relatively high, mainly due to the financial system’s efforts to strengthen financial support for the real economy and the corresponding increase in derived currencies. The first quarter is the peak of financial institutions’ credit supply. In the past two years, the new loans in the first quarter accounted for about 40% of the new loans in the whole year. In the first quarter of this year, there were more loans from financial institutions, with various loans increasing by 10.6 trillion yuan, an increase of 2.27 trillion yuan over the same period of last year. At the same time, the bond investment of financial institutions has also increased. In the first quarter, the bond investment of financial institutions increased by 2.42 trillion yuan, 498.6 billion yuan more than the same period of last year. Among them, government bond investment increased by 1.79 trillion yuan, accounting for 74% of the total bond investment increase, which is related to financial institutions’ support for government bond issuance.

　　The return of asset management funds to the balance sheet is also an important reason for the rise of M2. Since the second half of last year, the financial market has fluctuated, the risk appetite of the entity sector has declined, the funds of asset management products such as wealth management have been transferred back to the balance sheet, and the bank’s balance sheet has expanded, which has pushed up the growth rate of M2. At the end of March, the assets directly summarized by asset management products totaled 94.7 trillion yuan, down 1.6 trillion yuan from the beginning of the year, with a negative growth rate of 4.2% year-on-year, 8.1 percentage points lower than the same period of last year. If the on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet are combined, the general liquidity of the society can be seen comprehensively. At the end of March, the total liquidity increased by 10% year-on-year, 1.3 percentage points higher than the same period of last year and 2.7 percentage points lower than the growth rate of M2. Overall, the general liquidity growth is relatively stable.

　　The growth rate of M1 is relatively low. On the one hand, the macro-economy is still in the recovery stage. In the first quarter, the questionnaire survey of entrepreneurs of the People’s Bank of China showed that the macro-economic heat index of entrepreneurs was 33.8%, up 10.3 percentage points from the previous quarter, but down 1.9 percentage points compared with the same period last year. On the other hand, financial institutions have provided more abundant deposit products, some enterprises have strengthened the management of deposit funds, and their demand deposits have decreased accordingly.

　　 The weather is getting colder and winter is coming. What new regulations will be implemented in November?

　　(1) China’s first national standard for civil protective masks is implemented, and it is only qualified to breathe in "good" wind; ② A penalty of 10,000 yuan can be imposed for leaking passengers’ privacy; (3) The maximum penalty for refusing to take a cruise taxi or making a detour is 2,000 yuan; ④ Fare self-determination for routes below 800 km & HELIP; … More ↓ ↓ ↓ It’s about you and me!

Diego maradona

Early this morning, the Argentine football player known as the "hand of God"Diego Diego Maradona.He died of cardiac arrest, and the media all over the world reported that countless fans posted articles on social media to mourn the "King of the Ball".Diego Maradona.

In today’s single sports events in the world, football is the most popular sport and the craziest one. Why is football called the first sport in the world?

Take the World Cup as an example:

The participating countries of the World Cup are all over the world, and football teams from more than 200 countries compete for the qualification to enter the finals (only 32 teams and 736 players were selected in the final). Every game is full of audiences, and its ratings, broadcasting fees, sponsors, advertising revenue and peripheral products have exceeded the scale of the Olympic Games.

There are at least four reasons why football is called the first sport in the world:

(A) the entry threshold is very low

Image source: Xinhua News Agency

Football has very low requirements for venues, equipment and equipment. For example, many world-class stars come from poor areas in South America and Africa, so they can easily participate in this sport in economically backward countries or poor families. In professional football fields, dirt floors and streets, you can have fun as long as there is an open space! I still remember when I was a child, after school, several classmates found an open space and used schoolbags as goals. Several people agreed on the rules and didn’t need referees, so they could have a great time.

(2) The requirements for body shape are not high.

Generally speaking, if a sport wants to be a top athlete, congenital conditions are very important. Although the acquired efforts can make up for some congenital deficiencies, in the fierce sports competition, the actual effect is very limited, so many sports keep many people out for this reason. However, football doesn’t require high body shape. There is a saying in the industry that "if you can’t play football with a sense of accomplishment, never blame yourself for being inferior to others."

In football, tall players have long legs and great strength, and are not easy to be pushed down due to collision. Short players react quickly, which is beneficial to dribbling and shuttling and has the advantage of possession of the ball.

Therefore, in football, becoming a top star requires personal physical fitness, personal skills, personal psychological quality, teamwork, tactical strategy, organizational system and other conditions; Take one’s physical fitness as an example. It requires both speed and endurance, and it requires both footwork and footwork.

(3) Actively participate in all countries, big or small.

Basketball and volleyball, among the three major balls in the world, are usually played by a few fixed countries in international competitions. Football, on the other hand, is different. No matter big or small, strong or weak, rich or poor countries actively participate in international competitions.

For example, the Asian island country Maldives, with a population of less than 300,000, even lost to Iran 0-17 in a World Cup, setting a record for the biggest score gap in an event, but it did not affect the country’s love for this sport at all.

(4) A game that keeps people hopeful forever.

For example, in the World Cup, when team A wins team B and team B wins team C, the logical final result should be that team A wins team C, but the result of football match is not like this, and the reversal of team C winning team A often occurs. In the 2018 World Cup group match, Group F: Mexico wins Germany, Germany wins Sweden, and Sweden wins Mexico; Group H: Japan wins Colombia, Colombia wins Poland, and Poland wins Japan in turn. Therefore, the football match is a game that people will always have hope.

Do you think football is the first sport in the world?

Views only represent the author himself, not his position.

Thanks to the increasingly perfect transportation network and overwhelming travel strategies and experience sharing on social platforms, more and more people have broken away from the traditional restrictions of "traveling with a group" and started to explore travel methods that are more suitable for their physique. For example, the main character of college students’ "special forces travel" said to leave; "Bao Baba Bao Ma" chose "study tour" in the hope of entertaining; Urban "migrant workers" pursue a more relaxed life experience at the weekend "Citywalk" and so on.

Different from the old tourist cities or scenic spots, the new tourism mode has also spawned a number of emerging "online celebrity punch points": the barbecue in Zibo, the panda in Chengdu, Wu Kang Road in Shanghai, and the diving grandfather in Tianjin …

There are more and more forms of tourism, and the following questions are constantly emerging: which way is more friendly to the elderly? What are the pit avoidance guides for the "study tour"? What is "reverse tourism" and "colorful tourism"?

"Forgive me for my unrestrained love of traveling all my life", and take you to know something about traveling!

When you wake up your body with exercise, you also wake up a brand-new self. Today is "National Fitness Day". Life is endless and exercise is endless. Let’s share the benefits of sports with you. How many do you know?

Strong body

A person who insists on exercise will look particularly young. Because you often stretch and exercise your bones and muscles, your body can remain energetic and elastic; And a sedentary person, the body will become stiff.

If you never exercise, you will not only feel poor, tired and sleepy, but also look lacking in vitality. Only by insisting on proper exercise can you keep your body in a good state.

relieve stress

When a person is in a bad mood, he can try to heal and repair himself during exercise. When you feel stressed, going swimming may relieve the burden in your heart; When you feel overwhelmed, running may help you regain your inner momentum and motivation.

Maybe exercise won’t help you solve all your troubles, but it can let you release your emotions while sweating, and the whole person will feel relaxed and comfortable.

Overcome inertia

The biggest difference between people who exercise and those who don’t exercise is self-discipline. A person who just wants to lie down every day will eventually lose to laziness and procrastination. But a person who insists on sports, they will not let themselves be defeated by inertia.

Exercise will inevitably consume physical strength, but as long as you are moving, you will overcome your inertia; As long as you persist in exercising, you are persisting in becoming a better self.

Optimistic attitude

In life, a person who loves sports usually has an optimistic attitude. Even if they encounter bad things, they will have the confidence and courage to face and deal with them.

Sports games give people very good psychological hints. When you feel that running 5 kilometers is the limit, stick to it for a while and find that you can run a little further, your optimistic attitude of breaking through difficulties and difficulties will also be cultivated.

Learn to focus.

If you want to concentrate more on your work, you can try to exercise your attention in sports. When you are dancing, you will concentrate and think about action in your mind; When you jump rope, you will also pay attention to the rise and fall of the rope.

Finish this action in front of you, and then do the next action; Finish this one thing, and then do the next one. When you learn to pay attention to every present and moment, you can live every minute with high quality.

Change life

When you form the habit of exercise, you will also drive yourself to form other good habits. For example, in order to run in the morning, you start to let yourself go to bed early and get up early; In order to have a good physical strength, your diet has become regular.

Starting any sport is a good start in your life. Because it will drive the self-disciplined you to run together like a gear, and your life will get better and better.

The Peking Opera "Mother" performed by Wuhan Peking Opera Theatre created an extraordinary mother-Ge Jianhao. Her son Cai Hesen and daughter-in-law Xiang Jingyu were both famous early leaders of the Communist Party of China (CPC), and her daughter Cai Chang was one of the earliest party member in the Communist Party of China (CPC), a pioneer and outstanding leader of China women’s movement. As a pioneer and revolutionary of women’s education in China, Ge Jianhao is admired by people for her persevering and inspiring personal struggle and ups and downs of revolutionary experience.

The Peking Opera Mother tells the story of the heroic mother Ge Jianhao and her revolutionary battles with her children and daughter-in-law with a dramatic and modern stage paradigm, bringing the audience into that magnificent red revolutionary era.

The story was refreshing from the beginning. The author firmly grasped the legendary experience of the heroic mother Ge Jianhao and made a fuss: in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, the social situation was turbulent, and the old and new ideological trends collided fiercely. Ge Jianhao broke through the shackles of the feudal society for thousands of years and boldly safeguarded the dignity of marriage-divorced his concubine. The screenwriter put such a plot at the beginning of the whole play and took the lead. In fact, there are many women who dare to fight in love and marriage in operas, such as forcing Zhu Maichen to divorce her Cui Shi in "Broken Mountain" and coaxing Zhou She to write a divorce certificate in "Saving the Wind" to save her sister Zhao Paner. But no matter how fierce their struggle is, they still can’t get out of the feudal ideological framework that men are superior to women. And Ge Jianhao’s way of treating marriage has more modern female subjective consciousness. At first, she took her children thousands of miles to Shanghai to find her husband, Cai Rongfeng, and just entered the door, she met Cai’s concubine, Yan Hong. Ge Jianhao resolutely resisted, based on Qiu Jin’s "women’s self-reliance" theory, put forward "Hugh’s theory", simply solved the problem neatly, led the children home, and ended the marriage.

In the following story, Ge Jianhao enrolled with his children and grandchildren at the age of 50; Change Grameen’s name to Ge Jianhao in public; Put your feet for your young daughter Cai Chang; Stop Cai Rongfeng from selling women as concubines; Selling ancestral gold rings supports children to study abroad and return to China to serve the motherland … Many details show Ge Jianhao’s courage and perseverance.

"Studying Abroad" is a turning point of the whole drama from comedy to serious sadness, and the theme of the play has also changed from the history of women’s personal inspirational growth to the shaping of heroic mothers who adhere to revolutionary beliefs and bid farewell to martyrs’ children and daughters-in-law. At this point, the plot moves from clear and lively externalization of contradictions and conflicts to deeper dissection and rendering of the characters’ inner feelings, and the story progresses gradually, and the expression form moves from pure realism to the combination of freehand brushwork and realism. The addition of large lyric aria creates space for the second creation of Beijing opera singing.

Ge Jianhao’s actor Liu Ziwei is the pillar of Wuhan Peking Opera Theatre. In the aspect of composing modern operas, she led the team to work hard for many years and explored a road of innovation of "Han School" Peking Opera which is different from Beijing School and Shanghai School. In the view of art, she pursues the concept of "great drama", highlighting drama and mixing various cross-border art forms. In performance, she learned from others’ strong points, changed from one teacher to another, played down the genre consciousness subjectively, broke down the barriers of operas, and avoided the homogenization and facelift of roles. She is a rare artistic practitioner. Liu Ziwei is good at career spanning. In the past, his roles were more inclined to Hua Dan, Tsing Yi, Hua Shan and other young and middle-aged people. In Mother, Ge Jianhao was over 40 when she appeared, so Lao Dan’s scenes were obviously aggravated. In most plays, everyone called her "the old lady". This adds an important puzzle to Liu Ziwei’s role gallery. She is ingenious and uses Hua Dan’s skills to interpret the characters: in the scene of Kao Xue, she changed her name in public and claimed that she was a "newborn" young man. Since then, in the performance of the couplet question and answer, she completely recited and performed in the tone of Little Hua Dan, and interpreted the hidden girlish feeling in the characters’ hearts. This dislocation is very creative.

Huang Dingshan, the invited director of Wuhan Peking Opera Theatre, directed the play. He is a versatile director who is good at crossing borders. He has previously directed many types of plays, such as drama, opera, musical, opera, film and television drama. This integration of multi-artistic categories coincides with Liu Ziwei’s view that team drama is higher than "drama". In the play, the use of parallel montage, fade-in and fade-out transitions, high-light close-ups and intricate narratives, the jumping-in and jumping-out of the chorus and modern dance troupe, and the ease between the two roles of group performance and commentary are all distinctive features and highlights.

In "Biezi", the director used the change of light and shadow to perform a thrilling miniature pantomime. Ge Jianhao kept watch for the underground party comrades at the meeting in Shanghai alley. When she found that the spy was approaching and informed the people in the house to move in time, she and the spy were alert to shuttle back and forth between bamboo hangers drying clothes and quilts. At this time, the main lights on the stage were all extinguished, and only the chasing light that was a diversion led the audience’s line of sight. Another typical scene is the arrest of daughter-in-law Xiang Jingyu. The director used the rapid switching of light and shadow in different positions on the stage to enter Beijing Opera in film and television language, with group dance and increasingly tense atmosphere music. In just a few minutes, it condensed a series of actions such as Xiang Jingyu’s meeting with comrades working underground, holding a meeting, being betrayed by traitors, being surrounded by spies in the crowd, being imprisoned, being killed, etc., which was as thrilling as a spy war movie.

Singing teams and group dancing scenes are widely used in the play. There are Beijing dialect chorus, bel canto chorus and Hunan dialect folk song chorus; There are also the integration of traditional Peking Opera tunes and symphony melodies, and the interweaving of Peking Opera martial arts routines, copying scenes and modern dance performances, which have built a three-dimensional and sensible overall structure for realizing various functions such as rapid transition, setting off the artistic atmosphere of specific scenes, and making comments in time during the story process, greatly enriching the stage expression of Peking Opera.

In addition, in the background of the stage, the old photos of the prototype characters in the play are superimposed, and the projection and restoration of specific historical scenes are combined with the physical landscape to create a nostalgic feeling like a film movie. With the stylized performance of Peking Opera in the open field in the foreground, the whole stage is turned into a big picture frame, bearing the moving images of the revolutionaries who are dusted by history but will not be forgotten, with a long aftertaste.

Generally speaking, the Peking Opera Mother continues the production concept of Liu Ziwei’s team in Wuhan Peking Opera Theatre, and puts Ge Jianhao’s legendary experience of half a life of twists and turns on the stage with the individualized artistic practice of "Han School" Peking Opera, adding a lot of color to the image of revolutionary mother on the Peking Opera stage.
