The following is the translation:

Whether we choose CPU for games or CPU for desktop applications, we have only two choices: AMD or Intel. Both companies have their own fans, so it is difficult for people who want to buy CPU to get pertinent advice, but in fact, the answer is obvious in many cases. In fact, for most people, AMD clearly wins. This conclusion is a big reversal, because AMD almost went bankrupt three years ago, but now it can compete with Intel in the chip market that has dominated for more than ten years.

This article discusses the endless debate between AMD and Intel’s desktop CPU from the aspects of personal computer’s purpose, price, performance, driver support, energy consumption and security (we don’t discuss notebook or server chips here), as well as the current situation of their competition. We will also discuss the process and architecture that changed the rules of the game. There is no doubt about the overall winner, but which CPU to choose should be comprehensively considered according to price, performance and the most important function.

1. price and value comparison between 1.AMD and Intel CPU.

No matter who it is, price is always the most important consideration, and in terms of value, AMD is hard to beat. AMD’s products have many additional advantages, such as integrated cooling, all models fully support overclocking, not to mention various software, such as the automatic overclocking function of Precision Boost Overdrive.

The extensive forward and backward compatibility of Socket AM4 motherboard also brings great benefits, and every penny you spend on the processor and motherboard is worth it. AMD also allows all motherboards except A series to overclock, which is also good news for users.

In addition, in the CPU war between AMD and Intel, we haven’t even discussed the new Pinan itself. We will see later that AMD’s modern processors tend to provide more cores, or more threads, and faster PCIe 4.0 at any price.

Although the price of Intel’s high-end desktop models is somewhat loose, the price of Intel chips is high. Intel’s models that don’t support overclocking have their own radiators (you need to spend more money to support overclocking), but the quality of these models can only be said to be acceptable. We have seen that Intel’s own radiator does not provide the best performance under factory settings. Obviously, this can’t be compared with AMD, and some models of AMD even support RGB radiators.

Intel’s expensive, overclocking K-series processors don’t even have a heat sink. So if you want to start with an Intel processor that can overclock, you must set aside a budget for the radiator. In contrast, most of AMD’s own radiators can be used for moderate overclocking. But if you want to buy Intel chips, then Core i5-9400F is worth considering. The processor doesn’t have an integrated graphics card, and it doesn’t support overclocking, but as an Intel Core i5, the price of $125 is very good.

Not only is the K-series that Intel can overclock expensive, but you also need to buy an expensive Z-series motherboard to release the full performance of CPU, because B-series or H-series motherboards are not allowed to overclock. Intel is also famous for changing the socket interface frequently, which means that it is unlikely to use a new processor on the old motherboard or install the old processor on the new motherboard. Therefore, when choosing Intel, we should seriously consider the issue of forward and backward compatibility. And you can’t use PCIe 4.0. Intel still uses PICe 3.0 bus, and its transmission rate is only half of AMD’s PCIe 4.0.

Although AMD has the highest performance-to-price ratio, the products with the highest performance at each price point have to pay an extra price, especially the Ruilong 9 3950X. Intel’s processors are far ahead of AMD in terms of performance. Although AMD will charge extra fees, the performance dispute has obviously ended.

Results: AMD won. When comparing the CPU of AMD and Intel, we need to consider the complete product line, especially when calculating the performance that each dollar can buy. However, if you want to buy an integrated graphics card, you can only choose Intel. We recommend Intel to most users who want to choose integrated graphics cards, especially when you want to play games.

2. Comparison of game performance between 2.AMD and Intel CPU.

In the CPU battle between AMD and Intel, Intel’s performance on each core still wins, which means that for lightweight threads and those applications that can’t make good use of multi-core and multi-threading, Intel’s performance is quite excellent. This is the case with most games. However, AMD is ahead in some key price bands, especially in end products, and our evaluation shows that AMD’s game performance is not inferior. Therefore, we have many choices at different price points.

Intel’s most expensive desktop processor, Core i9-9900K, can provide the best high-end game performance, while the mid-range product Core i9-9700K is not far behind. However, the difference in product performance between Intel and AMD’s corresponding price bands can’t make up for the extra expenses brought by choosing Intel, at least for most people.

The difference between AMD and Intel’s top products in game performance is almost hard to find, but the situation in mid-range products is more complicated. Referring to the previous classification, price is the ultimate measure, while AMD’s mid-range products win in several key aspects, and most consumers will buy it. On the contrary, Intel’s advantages are not so obvious.

To give full play to Intel’s advantages, you need a high-end CPU and a monitor with high refresh rate, and you also need to set the game to the outdated resolution of 1080p. If you choose 1440p or even higher resolution, you will hit the bottleneck of GPU, so the CPU can’t play its best performance. However, some extra CPU processing power can give you some room to upgrade your graphics card-AMD’s Big Navi and Nvidia’s GTX 3080/Ampere have been planned to be released this year.

We believe that most mid-range machines will use weak GPU, and its performance usually matches that of CPU. It is worth mentioning that AMD provides more cores and threads than Intel at all price points, so running chat applications, browsers and other tasks in the background when playing games will not have much impact on performance. If you want to play live games, AMD’s good ratio of core number to thread number makes it the best choice.

Whenever your CPU is fast enough, you should choose the best GPU in your budget, because CPU usually becomes a bottleneck. Therefore, you should always pay attention to our articles on the best game CPU and the best graphics card, as well as the comparison chart between CPU and GPU to ensure the best match between them.

Result: Intel won, but only because we measured the top performance. If you can squeeze out the performance of each frame, especially under overclocking conditions, then you should choose high-end Intel, whose top performance can also ensure that you will not be outdated when upgrading the GPU later. Just pay attention to the priority of selection.

In the mid-range products, AMD is usually a better choice, and unless you choose the fastest GPU with a display with low resolution and high refresh rate, the gap with Intel CPU will not be too big.

3. Performance of 3.AMD and Intel in terms of productivity and content creation

The performance battle outside the game is clearer. In terms of productivity and content creation, AMD chips win completely. AMD chips are equipped with extra cores, threads and caches, so measured by the performance that each dollar can buy, AMD wins.

Intel has fallen behind in the race to integrate more processor cores, and now AMD’s products in high-end desktop processing and mainstream desktop processors are far behind Intel. Think about it. AMD’s mainstream desktop processor, the 16-core Ruilong 9 3950X, provides twice as many cores and threads as Intel’s most powerful Core i9-9900K. At the same time, the number of cores of AMD’s high-end processor Ruilong Threadripper 3990X has reached 64 cores and 128 threads, which is 3.5 times that of Intel’s high-end model halo.

Whether it is a mainstream desktop processor or a high-end processor, AMD’s chips are much higher than Intel’s performance, so they are more expensive than the corresponding flagship products of Intel. However, you don’t need to spend too much money to enjoy the benefits of AMD chips. In almost every price range, AMD provides a higher number of cores and threads at a lower price. These extra cores make AMD win in almost all multi-threaded evaluations, such as image rendering and video processing.

Results: AMD won. The battle between AMD and Intel is almost one-sided for content creation and productivity applications that pursue performance. At present, AMD’s 6-core and more core products will not come with integrated graphics cards, which means that if you don’t want to buy a discrete graphics card, you can only choose Intel. But almost all professionals will choose discrete graphics cards.

4. Compare AMD and Intel processors in terms of specifications and features.

AMD has Ruilong 3, Ruilong 5, Ruilong 7, Ruilong 9 and Threadriper product lines, while Intel’s product lines are Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, Core i9 and Cascade Lake-X. The following table lists all products, comparing AMD and Intel processors in terms of specifications and performance, but for the sake of simplicity, we only focus on the top products on the corresponding product lines. Note that the two companies have cheap products in each product line, but from this table we can roughly feel the contrast between them. In terms of price, the suggested retail price and market price of the two companies are adopted.

Comparison of specifications and prices between AMD and Intel’s high-end desktop processors

The multi-core of high-end desktop processor can meet all the needs of content creators. Intel had no competitors in this field until AMD’s first-generation Threadripper product line broke this myth, and Threadripper 3000 product line completely defeated Intel.

We can see that in the comparison between AMD and Intel’s high-end desktop processors, the 64-core and 128-thread of AMD’s flagship product Threadripper 3990X are unmatched, while the 32-core and 24-core Threadripper 3970X and 3960X models are far ahead of Intel’s chips.

Intel’s high-end product line is divided into two series, among which Xeon W-3175X and W-3265 are suitable for luxurious and expensive LGA3647 motherboards. But this is not the most suitable system for computer enthusiasts, and its main market is professional workstations.

Intel’s high-end desktop products start with the 18-core Cascade Lake-X Core i9-10980XE, which uses the LGA2066 motherboard. Considering the price of the chip, its performance is very strong, but the number of cores of Threadripper is 3.5 times hard to beat, so basically Intel lost to AMD in the high-end desktop market.

With AMD’s Threadripper product line, you can get more cores, caches and faster PCIe 4.0, but you have to spend more money to support such a powerful processor. However, when considering the price per core, AMD is more cost-effective.

AMD and Intel’s high-end product specifications and prices

In the battle of high-end processors, AMD’s Ruilong 9 and Ruilong 7 families completely defeated Intel’s Core i9 and Core i7 product lines. Similarly, AMD’s 16-core 32-thread Ruilong 9 3950X has maintained its absolute leading edge, setting a new benchmark in terms of core count, performance and price.

Intel’s 8-core and 16-thread Core i9-9900K can’t match it, but from the price point of view, it can actually compete with AMD’s Ruilong 9 3900X. We see that in each price segment, AMD’s core number and price per core are dominant, and there are more caches, faster PCIe 4.0 and faster memory support. 9900K does lead in game performance, but it stops there. The performance of the 3900X is very close, and most players will not notice the difference between it and Intel, although there may be differences after upgrading the GPU.

So are the more mainstream Ruilong 7 and Core i7 markets. To be honest, these chips are what most gamers should buy. Here, AMD’s Ruilong 7 3700X can easily beat Intel’s Core i7-9700K, which has eight more threads and is more suitable for handling multiple tasks. Similarly, 9700K is still the king of the game world, but the Ruilong 7 family wins in the rest of the place.

Specifications and prices of mid-range and cheap processors from AMD and Intel

Regarding the midrange and cheap CPU of AMD and Intel, the Core i5 and i3 families are evenly matched with AMD’s Ruilong 5 and Ruilong 3 processors. This market constitutes the most important sales of AMD and Intel, so the price and value of these products are the most important.

AMD’s Ruilong 5 3600X has the same number of cores as Intel, but the number of threads is more than that of Core i5-9600K to balance the advantages of the latter in fundamental frequency and frequency doubling, so 3600X is the best cost-effective combination in mid-range products. You can even downgrade to the Ruilong 5 3600, and use AMD’s Precision Boost Overdrive to overclock with one button to get almost the same performance as 3600X. Tip: AMD models without X are the best cost performance.

AMD’s new products-the Ruilong 3 3300X without graphics card for only $120 and the Ruilong 3 3100 model for only $99 are also designed to resist Intel. Three years ago, Intel’s flagship chip cost about $350, with four cores and eight threads, but now AMD’s Ruilong 3 product line can provide the same number of cores and threads, but it only costs $99. These products have boosted the sales of each product line of AMD and dealt a fatal blow to the second-hand price of Intel’s old chips. AMD also announced the news of the upcoming B550 motherboard, bringing PCIe 4.0 products with higher cost performance into the low-end market.

AMD also focuses on the Ruilong 5 3400G and Ruilong 3 3200G APU to resist Intel’s Core i5-9400F, Core i3-9350K/F and Core i3-9100F models. AMD’s model integrates Vega’s graphics card unit and can run many low-end games. This is why the i5-9400F and i3-9100F are so popular, because consumers no longer need to spend $50 on a decent discrete graphics card. The new Ruilong 3 3300X and 3100 are not on the market yet, but we are eager to see how it will affect the market.

Both high-end desktop chips do not provide integrated graphics units. However, even if Intel sells its F-series chips without graphics cards at a discount, in the mainstream product line, Intel still has an advantage because of its own integrated graphics card.

On the contrary, AMD only provides integrated graphics cards on APU models, which means that any processor with more than four cores (or a processor with a price of more than $150) must be equipped with a discrete graphics card. This is a big disadvantage, because most mainstream users can’t play games with computers, so they have lost a large part of the professional market and OEM market. Intel’s iGPU is almost useless in games, but it is very suitable for display and QuickSync applications, while AMD’s iGPU provides the best gaming experience. However, the choice of AMD products is very limited, so a large part of the market is lost.

Results: AMD won. Comparing the specifications of AMD and Intel CPU, you will find that AMD provides more cores and threads, more cache, faster memory support, and PCIe 4.0 only for mid-range products and high-end products in each price segment. From the high-end desktop market to the high-end, mid-range and low-end markets, AMD’s Ryzen processor Ti provides more value than Intel’s processors.

5. overclocking comparison between 5.AMD and Intel CPU

There is no suspense in the comparison of overclocking. Intel provides the most overclocking space, which means that Intel chips can get higher performance with the same level of processors.

But as I said before, you have to spend extra money to buy an expensive Z-series motherboard to overclock, and you also need to buy a suitable third-party radiator (preferably water-cooled) to get the best performance of Intel. However, once equipped with all this, Intel’s chips can be easily pushed to the limit, and it can get the main frequency of more than 5GHz in the ninth-generation Coffee Lake Refresh processor.

AMD’s manual overclocking space is not so big. In fact, all cores can only overclock about several hundred MHz at most, even lower than single-core chips. This means that overclocking all cores may even lead to performance degradation of programs that do not use threads, although the decline is very small.

However, AMD provides the function of Precision Boost Overdrive, which can overclock with one button and squeeze out some extra performance from the basic performance of the chip, the power supply system of the motherboard and the cooling system of the CPU. AMD’s approach can achieve the best performance and will not encounter any difficulties. In either case, you can’t achieve the high frequency as Intel processors (AMD chips without liquid nitrogen cooling can reach 5.0GHz), but this performance improvement is free.

Result: Intel won. In discussing the overclocking problem between AMD and Intel, Intel provides more overclocking space and can achieve higher main frequency. Just need to pay an extra price. AMD’s method is more suitable for entry-level users, and it can achieve basic overclocking without much trouble, but the performance will not be improved too much.

6. Power consumption comparison between 6.AMD and Intel

Comparing the power consumption and heat dissipation of AMD and Intel, we will find that AMD’s 7 nm has brought great differences. Power consumption is a by-product of design, such as the architecture introduced below. However, high power consumption usually means high heat, so a better radiator is needed to balance the high heat generated by the chip.

Since the launch of the 14-nanometer process five years ago, Intel has been continuously improving the process, increasing the power consumption/performance ratio by 70%. However, it is no accident that Intel’s latest chip consumes more power and generates more heat. This is because each generation of Intel chips needs to increase power consumption to provide higher performance, so as to resist AMD’s attack. This will lead to some problems with its own radiator, and also require the motherboard to provide more powerful power. When the two are combined, Intel becomes a big power consumer.

On the contrary, AMD relies on TSMC’s 7 nm junction, which is more effective than Intel’s 14 nm process. AMD’s Ruilong 3000 series processors have lost some advantages because the package contains a central 14-nanometer I/O die, but overall, AMD’s 7-nanometer chip has lower power consumption or better performance-to-power ratio. Therefore, AMD can accomplish more work with the same power consumption, which is a win-win result for users. Moreover, AMD’s requirements for heat dissipation are not high.

Results: AMD won. Evaluating AMD and Intel by performance per watt will inevitably mention the role of denser processing nodes and more efficient micro-architecture, and TSMC’s 7 nm process and AMD’s Zen 2 are the strongest combination. The latest Ruilong chips consume less power and therefore generate less heat. This makes it very easy to dissipate heat.

7. CPU drivers and software of 7.AMD and Intel

In terms of software support, Intel has always had a good reputation. AMD’s CPU chip driver and graphics card driver often have problems, which is also one of the consequences of AMD’s shortage of manpower. Intel has not failed in drivers, but its reputation for stability has helped Intel win the processor market, especially the OEM market.

As for the existing products, the quality of Intel’s graphics card drivers is very good recently, because Intel has brought its Xe graphics card to the market. Providing graphics card drivers on the day of sale has become the default behavior of chip manufacturers, and the integrated graphics card in Intel chips has become the largest integrated graphics card in the world, running on billions of computers.

However, you should be cautious when chasing higher-end Intel products. In the past, Intel developed many creative new products, but all of them were thrown into the garbage dump of history because of price and market forces, and the long-term support of these products was not so perfect.

AMD’s products are still defective. AMD’s BIOS release often leads to some problems, which make the chip unable to play its full performance, although these problems can be solved after a series of updates. AMD is a small factory, which leads it to face the challenge of continuous optimization based on Intel architecture in the whole industry.

The survival of the semiconductor industry is very difficult, especially in the face of powerful competitors, and redefining the industry means breaking old things. As far as AMD is concerned, the old thing to be broken is that the operating system and applications are not optimized in a way that can give full play to the best performance of the first generation Zen architecture processor, let alone Zen 2 with a large number of cores.

Result: Intel won. Over the years, Intel has solved the driver update problem of its integrated graphics card, and the company also has a large group of software developers on standby to provide technical support for the latest software. Ten years of rule has also taught most software developers how to optimize Intel architecture. AMD has made great progress in changing the developer ecosystem and providing optimization for its Zen architecture, but there is still much room for improvement if it wants to keep moving forward.

8. Process comparison between 8.AMD and Intel

There are several main underlying technologies that can affect the potential of the chip. The most basic rule of processors is still valid: the densest processor nodes can win as long as they have enough power, performance and area characteristics (PPA) and a solid micro-architecture. If we use this standard to measure the CPU of AMD and Intel, we will find that AMD usually leads in process and architecture.

But whether AMD really takes the lead in the processor market is still a controversial topic. Unlike Intel, AMD does not produce its own processors. Instead, it is only responsible for designing the processor and then handing it over to an external foundry for the actual chip production. For example, AMD’s latest Ryzen processor uses the 12-nanometer process of GlobalFoundries and the 7-nanometer process of TSMC, and the latter is the most important.

Many companies use TSMC’s 7-nanometer node, including Apple and Huawei, so 7-nanometer technology has won the financial and engineering support of the whole industry. Therefore, by Intel’s own admission, the 7-nanometer process is more advanced than Intel’s own 10-nanometer and 14-nanometer processes. According to Intel, its own process can no longer gain the leading position before 2021, and Intel can’t regain the leading position in the industry before the 5-nanometer technology that I don’t know when it will be released appears.

TSMC’s 7 nm node means that AMD can build cheaper, faster and denser chips and integrate more cores, while still keeping power consumption within a specific range. This design can be more convenient.

Our article will not focus on Intel’s 10 nm technology. Intel’s desktop chips have been using 14 nm technology for five years, and it will not change in the foreseeable future, while its 10 nm technology is mediocre in notebooks. (Intel has not released a 10-nanometer chip with more than four cores. )

AMD will contract with TSMC to acquire higher-end technology regardless of whether it can take the lead from Intel by using the 7-nanometer node. This advantage gives AMD the most powerful blank paper for it to paint a picture of its micro-architecture and create a chip that Intel can’t beat.

The only thing AMD needs to worry about is the production capacity: Although AMD can produce the 7-nanometer process, TSMC cannot provide enough products to resist Intel’s powerful production capacity, at least in a short time. Therefore, AMD faces the problem of product shortage, so its penetration in the market may be limited. But maybe don’t worry too much, because Intel’s own products have been in short supply for a year. Especially after AMD’s new design forced Intel to increase the number of cores, Intel’s production capacity further declined, and the jump ticket of 10 nm technology led to problems in Intel’s production capacity.

Results: AMD (TSMC) won. Intel has been using 14nm technology on desktop processors for five years in a row. Intel has squeezed a lot of performance from the ancient design and designed a series of optimization measures. But all this can’t help Intel win the process war with AMD. Intel needs to come up with 10 nm or 7 nm desktop chips as soon as possible.

9. Architecture of 9.AMD and Intel

When comparing the CPU of AMD and Intel, we must consider two designs that have great influence on performance, scalability and performance per unit price: interconnection and micro-architecture.

AMD’s Infinity Fabric can combine multiple dies into one processor. It can be considered that this technology can put together multiple puzzles into a complete picture. AMD doesn’t need a big die, it can use many very small dies, which can improve the output and reduce the cost. This technology can also provide scalability that Intel’s grid interconnection technology can’t match, and obviously can beat Intel’s ancient ring bus technology on desktop processors.

AMD first applied this technology to Zen microarchitecture, which was designed to be extensible from the beginning. Therefore, compared with the previous generation Bulldozer chip, the number of instructions per clock cycle (IPC) increased explosively by 52%, and the latest Zen 2 microarchitecture used by Ryzen processor increased this number by 15% (calculated according to IPC). With the 7 nm process, AMD has improved the performance of each core by up to 31% (calculated by frequency and IPC).

As for the performance of each core, the migration to Zen 2 microarchitecture makes AMD processors almost comparable to Intel’s best products. The main reason is that Intel is still using the 14-nanometer process, and its micro-architecture is specially designed for 14-nanometer chips. This means that Intel’s new microarchitecture must be implemented on a smaller process (such as 10 nm), which leads to great difficulties for Intel’s 10 nm products.

Intel plans to improve this problem in the future, so that microarchitecture can be shared on different nodes. But until then, Intel can only use Skylake microarchitecture.

Results: AMD won. In terms of CPU architecture, it is clear that AMD has a faster pace. Intel has been using Skylae microarchitecture since 2015. AMD has made rapid progress in design, and has taken away the leading position in chip design from Intel.

10. Chip security of AMD and Intel

In recent five years, security researchers have been studying one of the technologies to improve the performance of modern chips: predictive execution engine. The results of these studies have led to the continuous discovery of a large number of security vulnerabilities, threatening the security and privacy of the system. Unfortunately, these vulnerabilities are very dangerous because they can’t be detected-the method of stealing data is completely in line with the design of the processor, so any known anti-virus software can’t detect them.

Fixing these vulnerabilities will lead to performance degradation, which is particularly painful for Intel, because there are many more vulnerabilities in its chips than other vendors.

Intel currently has 242 open vulnerabilities, while AMD has only 16, with a ratio of 15:1. It’s hard to say whether this is because the security of AMd chips is high, or because researchers rarely attack AMD chips-attackers will always target the chips with the highest market share. Similarly, at present, Windows, which has the highest share of desktop operating system, is attacked more than MacOS with Anu press, although this trend has changed recently.

In any case, there are far fewer security holes in AMD at present. We have seen that Intel’s architecture update has caused several performance degradation, and we don’t know when all the vulnerabilities will be solved.

Results: AMD won. The security difference between AMD and Intel cannot be ignored. Intel’s security vulnerabilities far exceed AMD’s. With the increase of AMD’s market share, this may change, and sub-cattle personnel are also increasingly studying AMD’s architecture. At present, Intel needs to spend more effort to repair its standards. These fixes usually reduce performance, which will cause Intel to lag further behind AMD in performance, so AMD wins.

11.AMD or Intel, which processor is better?

AMD’s Zen series processors have redefined our expectations for mainstream desktop processors and high-end desktop processors, and have caught up with Intel, which is still using the ancient 14-nanometer process and Skylake architecture. In the past few years, the focus of AMD’s CPU has shifted from high value and high energy consumption to optimal design, which can provide more cores, higher performance and lower power consumption.

Intel is slowly adding new features and cores to counter AMD, but it also has some negative effects, such as higher power consumption and heat dissipation. This can only prove that Intel is still struggling with design and chip manufacturers.

If Intel can reduce the price of mainstream products and relax the functional restrictions (such as overclocking) of high-end chips and motherboards in various product lines, the comparison between AMD and Intel may change dramatically. Intel’s strategy of squeezing the last penny out of every function gives AMD a lot of competition space.

Moreover, AMD’s performance can fully match its value. Intel still leads in the performance line of each core and still occupies a leading position in the game market, but this is only for the top-end product line. In the mid-range products with the largest share, AMD has strong competitiveness.

For a company that almost went bankrupt three years ago, it was a beautiful turnaround. AMD still has a lot to improve, such as expanding the ecosystem of its OEM partners and cooperating with the community to expand its software optimization. However, considering the excellent price, performance and value ratio, AMD is already very good.

Intel still has countless users who don’t need discrete graphics cards, especially in the huge OEM market, so there is still time to turn the tables. Intel’s Comet Lake processor will be released soon, but apart from the lower price, we don’t think another product with 14 nm technology will bring much change. However, AMD still can’t relax its vigilance.

At present, AMD has won the battle of CPU, but according to your own needs, perhaps Intel’s processor is still a better choice. If you want better overclocking, better gaming experience or software support, or you want productivity performance instead of buying a discrete graphics card, then Intel is better. But if you want to balance price and performance, then AMD is worth a try.

The picture shows the press conference.

[Moderator Hu Wenhui, Director of China National Intellectual Property Administration Office]Good morning, friends from the press! Welcome to China National Intellectual Property Administration’s press conference. This press conference is the third press conference held in China National Intellectual Property Administration this year, and it is also the first time that the Bureau has released the relevant statistical data of patents, trademarks and geographical indications to the society. I would like to thank all media friends for their concern and support for China’s intellectual property cause. Now, I’d like to introduce the leaders who attended today’s conference: Zhang Zhicheng, Director of Protection Coordination Department, Bi Nan, Director of Planning and Development Department, Zheng Huifen, Director of Examination Management Department of Patent Office, Cui Shoudong, Deputy Director of Trademark Office, and Zhao Meisheng, Deputy Director of Patent Management Department. I’m Hu Wenhui, spokesperson and director of the office. Next, we will release the important work statistics and relevant information of China National Intellectual Property Administration in the first half of 2018.

I. Main data

In the first half of 2018, China’s major intellectual property indicators achieved rapid growth, showing a good development momentum. The number of invention patent applications in China is 751,000. There were 217,000 invention patents authorized, including 171,000 domestic invention patents. In the domestic invention patent authorization, there are 159,000 service inventions, accounting for 93.2%; There were 12,000 off-duty inventions, accounting for 6.8%. In the first half of 2018, The top 10 domestic (excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan) enterprises in China are: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. (1,775), China Petrochemical Co., Ltd.

The number of cases requesting invalidation was 2,445, and the number of cases closed was 2,433.

In the first half of 2018, our bureau received 1,993 applications for integrated circuit layout design and 1,636 certificates for integrated circuit layout design. In the first half of 2018, the number of trademark registration applications in China was 3.586 million; 3.065 million trademark reviews were completed. By the end of June 2018, the cumulative number of trademark applications in China was 31.428 million, the cumulative number of registered trademarks was 19.395 million, and the number of valid registered trademarks was 16.807 million, with an average of one valid trademark for every 6.1 market entities; 4,395 collective trademarks and certification trademarks of geographical indications were approved, including 171 from abroad. The review period of trademark registration has been shortened from 8 months to about 7 months. In the first half of 2018, China accepted 10 new applications for the protection of geographical indication products, 46 newly approved products for the protection of geographical indications, and 135 newly approved enterprises for the use of special signs for geographical indication products. By the end of June 2018, a total of 2,359 geographical indication products had been protected, including 2,298 in China and 61 abroad; Accumulated 24 national geographical indication product protection demonstration zones; A total of 8,091 enterprises using special signs have been approved, and the relevant output value exceeds 1 trillion yuan. In the first half of 2018, the total number of patent administrative law enforcement cases nationwide was 19,900. Among them, 12,400 cases of patent disputes were handled (including 12,100 cases of patent infringement disputes) and 7,541 cases of counterfeit patents were investigated.

Second, the main features

First, the level of creation and application of intellectual property rights in China has progressed steadily. In the first half of 2018, the number of domestic invention patents granted and owned in China increased steadily, increasing by 6.5% and 19.5% respectively compared with the same period of last year; The number of invention patents per 10,000 population increased by 0.8 compared with the end of 2017. The proportion of invention patents authorized and owned in China has steadily increased, reaching 78.8% and 69.0% respectively. The level of trademark registration facilitation has been continuously improved. By the end of June 2018, six trademark examination cooperation centers and 123 trademark acceptance windows had been established nationwide; In the first half of 2018, the number of trademark registration applications increased by 57.5% year-on-year. Second, the dominant position of domestic enterprises in innovation continues to be consolidated. In the first half of 2018, enterprises accounted for 63.8% and 67.2% of the domestic invention patents granted and owned, respectively, up by 3.1 and 1.0 percentage points over the same period of last year; The contribution rate of enterprises to the growth of domestic invention patent applications in China reached 66.9%. The maintenance rate of effective invention patents of domestic enterprises for more than five years reached 71.2%, an increase of 3.9 percentage points over the end of last year.

Third, the overseas intellectual property applications of Chinese enterprises have steadily increased. In the first half of 2018, 17 domestic enterprises submitted more than 100 PCT international patent applications, which was the same as the same period of last year. Among them, Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., Ping An Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. and BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd. all exceeded 1,000 pieces. From January to May 2018, there were 2,228 applications for international registration of Madrid trademarks in China, up 80.69% year-on-year, ranking third in Madrid Union. Fourth, China’s intellectual property protection environment has been further optimized. In the first half of 2018, the total number of patent administrative law enforcement cases nationwide increased by 29.5% year-on-year, of which the number of patent disputes increased by 41.0% year-on-year, and the number of counterfeit patent cases increased by 14.1% year-on-year. Investigated and dealt with 13,600 trademark violation cases, with a case value exceeding 210 million yuan. China has further shaped a good business environment and innovation environment.

The above is the important work statistics and relevant information of our bureau in the first half of 2018. Next, please ask reporters to ask questions on related issues, and please inform your media when you ask questions.

[Guangming Daily reporter]What I want to ask is, in the data just released, the number of invention patents in China in the first half of this year has accounted for 70%. Does this mean that the quality and quantity of invention patents in China have been greatly improved? In addition, everyone has paid more attention to the quality of our domestic invention patents recently. Please introduce our practice in improving the quality of patents.

[Hu Wenhui]The question you asked is very good. In terms of the division of functions, the statistics of this piece of data are in the Planning Department. Please ask Director Bi to answer the previous questions first.

[Bi Nan, Director of Planning and Development Department of China National Intellectual Property Administration]Thank you for your question. As you mentioned, by the end of June this year, China’s domestic invention patents accounted for nearly 70%. Our statistics also show that among the 35 technical fields classified by the World Intellectual Property Organization, the number of domestic invention patents is higher than that of foreign invention patents in 32 fields, and there is a gap with foreign countries only in optics, medical technology and engine turbines. In terms of quantity, the advantages of domestic invention patents are obvious.

But this advantage in quantity does not mean that it also has an advantage in quality. From a statistical point of view, among all the valid invention patents, among the 35 fields mentioned just now, the number of 28 technical fields is less than that of foreign countries, especially in the six fields of optics, electrical and mechanical devices, audio-visual technology, medical technology, transportation and computer technology. The gap between China and foreign countries is obvious, including chip technology. Therefore, we should clearly see that China still has shortcomings in the core technology field, and we need to strive to improve the quality of patents, continuously strengthen the layout of high-quality core patents in key technology fields, continue to strengthen the protection and application of patents in key technology fields, and make up for the shortcomings of patents in core technology fields in the process of high-quality development. This is the first half of my answer to your question. Thank you.

[Hu Wenhui]The quality of patent examination is mainly the responsibility of Minister Zheng of the examination business department. Please answer him.

[Zheng Huifen, Director of Examination Business Management Department of China National Intellectual Property Administration Patent Office]Regarding the improvement of patent quality, we have been implementing the patent quality improvement project since 2016. This project includes the whole chain of patent creation, application, agency, examination, protection and application, and the quality improvement of all links. In short, it is divided into four sub-projects. One is about creation, and we think creation is the source.

The second is application and agency, which is also very important. It involves the quality of application documents and the scope of protection.

The third aspect is the review aspect, which we are actually mainly responsible for. It is the key to improve the quality of patent examination to properly authorize patent examination, avoid improper authorization and provide the public with patent rights with clear and appropriate protection scope and stable and predictable rights.

The fourth aspect is the follow-up protection and application.

It has been almost two years since the implementation of the patent quality improvement project in 2016, and we think the society should also be able to see the actual effect of quality improvement. Last year, we conducted a third-party social satisfaction survey on censorship, and 70% of the respondents said that they had felt the improvement in quality, especially in censorship, such as the results of retrieval, and now the quality is also improving. We will continue to increase our efforts in this regard in the future. Thank you for your question.

[Reporter of China Intellectual Property News]I want to ask Director Zhang a question about geographical indications. Geographical indications are an important part in the field of intellectual property rights, and this year is a new function of overall work. I would like to ask how the re-established China National Intellectual Property Administration will carry out the protection of geographical indications in the future.

[Zhang Zhicheng, Director of Protection and Coordination Department of China National Intellectual Property Administration]Thank you for your question. Geographical indications are one of the important types of intellectual property rights. Strengthening the protection of geographical indications is of great significance for improving the quality and market competitiveness of protected products, increasing the added value of products and farmers’ income, safeguarding consumers’ rights and interests, promoting local economic development and protecting traditional cultural heritage.

In March this year, a meeting of the 13th National People’s Congress of China voted and passed the "Institutional Reform Plan of the State Council". According to the requirements of the plan, the re-established China National Intellectual Property Administration was responsible for the protection of geographical indications, which laid the institutional and institutional foundation for the effective protection of geographical indication products. Just now, the spokesman introduced the data and achievements of the protection of geographical indication products in China. Your question is mainly about the next step. In the next step, we will focus on strengthening the protection system of geographical indication products, continue to strengthen the protection of geographical indication products, continue to promote international mutual recognition and mutual protection of geographical indication products, strengthen the work of poverty alleviation in the protection of geographical indication products, and further promote the "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services" work in the protection of geographical indication products. This is our initial consideration.

[Reporter of Xiaokang Magazine]I would like to ask the host a question about a recently released film called Dying to Survive, which has been released for just one week. Now the box office has exceeded 1.5 billion, and a hot spot of people’s livelihood-patented drugs and generic drugs have been pushed to the forefront again. What is the current situation of drug patent protection in China? Are there any relevant policies in the future that can guarantee universal medical care to the maximum extent, so that ordinary people can be cured and escorted?

[Hu Wenhui]This is a very good question. Dying to Survive’s movie, which may have been seen by many comrades present here, happened to be seen by me just a few days ago. It was really touching. It seems that I didn’t mention the issue of patents from the film, but I believe that the intellectual property owners, especially our comrades engaged in intellectual property work, may all realize that this film involves the issue of patented drugs, which is of concern to everyone.

This is how I look at this problem. First of all, from the international practice of intellectual property rights, the protection of drugs has always been an international problem, mainly to balance the interests between drug-related enterprises and the public. Internationally, some countries will introduce some patent compensation period systems to extend the protection period of drug patents, but at the same time, they will also introduce some restrictive measures, such as compulsory licensing of patents and other systems, which will form a balance between the two systems.

From the perspective of public interest, if our pharmaceutical companies do not have the motivation to develop new and effective drugs as soon as possible, it will actually be a great harm to the public interest. On the other hand, if the price of drugs developed is too high for the public to use, it is also a great harm to the public interest. So there must be a balance between these two aspects.

As far as our country is concerned, since the implementation of the patent law in 1985, we have been making a balanced consideration in this regard. On the one hand, we have had strict patent protection for drugs since 1985, and at the same time, we have always had the relevant system of compulsory patent licensing, and we have been constantly improving the relevant system in the process of amending the previous patent law. At present, the fourth revision of the patent law is under way. Because the plan has not yet been announced, it is not convenient to tell you the details of the revision here. Friends from the media are also welcome to continue to pay attention to the revision of the patent law, and then we will work together to achieve the goal you just mentioned, so that ordinary people can have good medicine and can afford it.

That’s all I have to answer.

[Reporter of Legal Daily]My question is for Director Zhao. Intellectual property protection has always been a hot topic of social concern. What special work did China National Intellectual Property Administration do in this area in the first half of this year?

[Zhao Meisheng, Deputy Director of China National Intellectual Property Administration Patent Management Department]Thank you for your question. In the first half of the year, we mainly took the following measures to improve the effectiveness of cracking down on infringement and counterfeiting: First, we further strengthened law enforcement and handling cases. We will further promote the "Thunder" special action of intellectual property law enforcement and rights protection, and organize centralized inspections and centralized rectification for key areas and key links.

The second is to continuously improve the quality of law enforcement cases. Complete the selection of ten typical cases of patent administrative law enforcement in 2017, and organize the evaluation of patent law enforcement files in 2017.

The third is to continuously improve the law enforcement cooperation mechanism. In-depth promotion of cross-regional intellectual property law enforcement cooperation such as Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Economic Belt and "Belt and Road".

The fourth is to accelerate the construction of protection centers. To study and draft the Guidelines for the Construction and Operation of Intellectual Property Protection Centers to provide normative guidance for the construction and operation of intellectual property protection centers. Up to now, 19 intellectual property protection centers have been approved.

Fifth, actively promote the construction of social credit system. Solidly promote the construction of part of the Intellectual Property Office of the National Credit Information Sharing Platform Project (Phase II) and actively promote the establishment of a joint disciplinary mechanism.

[Reporter from China Business News]I’d like to put this question to Director Cui Shoudong and Minister Zheng, which is about the review cycle. We know that on June 28th, Premier Li Keqiang delivered a very important speech at the national teleconference on deepening the "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services" reform and transforming government functions, in which he mentioned that the time for trademark registration examination should be reduced to less than four months within five years, the examination period of invention patents should be reduced by one third, and the examination period of high-value patents should be reduced by half. We are all very concerned about what measures China National Intellectual Property Administration will take to implement this goal and task?

[Cui Shoudong, Deputy Director of China National Intellectual Property Administration Trademark Office (director level)]Thanks to the reporter of the industrial and commercial news, I feel very cordial. The issue of shortening the trademark review cycle should be said to be an old topic. It is not the first time that the Prime Minister has proposed shortening the trademark review cycle. In the government work reports of the two sessions this year, the Prime Minister specifically mentioned shortening the trademark review cycle significantly.

Trademark review has attracted the attention of the whole society at present, and the CPC Central Committee and the State Council also attach great importance to it. The Trademark Office has been paying close attention to trademark review and has done a lot of hard work for many years. Especially in recent years, we have carried out a series of reforms in shortening the period of trademark examination. At present, we are also facing a contradiction. On the one hand, the number of trademark applications has increased rapidly. Far from it, the number of trademark applications in 2014 was 2.28 million, in 2015 it was 2.87 million, in 2016 it reached 3.69 million, and in 2017 it reached 5.74 million. From the first half of this year to June, it has reached 3.58 million, which is the highest in history, with more than 759,000 a month. Yesterday, the Trademark Office held an analysis meeting on trademark reform in the first half of the year. It is estimated that the number of trademark applications will exceed 8 million this year. On the other hand, with the rapid increase of market players, the CPC Central Committee, the State Council and the people demand that the trademark review cycle be shortened.

In this case, the Trademark Office has taken many measures, especially in 2016 and 2017, which successively introduced a series of measures to facilitate the reform of trademark registration, greatly shortening the review period of trademark registration. On March 20, 2018, the former General Office of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce issued the "Three-year Plan for the Reform of Trademark Registration Facilitation", and the Prime Minister also gave instructions on our work, affirming our measures of self-pressure and optimizing the business environment. The new Trademark Law stipulates that the examination period of trademark registration is 9 months, which was shortened to 8 months at the end of last year, 7 months and 2 days in the first half of this year, 6 months at the end of this year, 5 months next year, and 4 months in 2020. This is the main task of the three-year plan, and the examination period including the follow-up procedures of trademark registration will be shortened accordingly.

Therefore, we have taken a series of measures to shorten the review cycle, mainly including: further optimizing the process, especially using information technology in the trademark review system; To establish a review cooperation center outside Beijing, Zhengzhou and Jinan will be added this year, so that we have six review cooperation centers. The Trademark Office insists on relying on reform, technology and system. We are confident to do a good job in reform and fulfill the requirements put forward by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council. Thank you for your question!

[Zheng Huifen]Thank you for your question. In fact, the problems we encountered are very similar to those encountered by the Trademark Office just now.

As the spokesman said just now, the number of applications for invention patents in the first half of this year was 751,000. As we all know, the number of applications last year was 1.382 million. That is to say, in recent years, the growth rate of invention patent applications in China has actually been very high, so in this case, the examination period of invention patents is 22 months. In order to implement the State Council’s important decision to reduce the examination period of invention patents, we will work from several aspects in the next step.

One is to further strengthen the construction of the examiner team, and strive to build a team of examiners with strong ability and high quality to provide a strong talent guarantee for the examination work.

Secondly, according to the principle of quality first and benefit first, we should innovate the mechanism mode of work, optimize the examination management process, strengthen the fine allocation of human resources and examination case sources, and earnestly demand efficiency from management.

The third aspect is that we should continue to promote information construction, increase the application of new technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data in the review work, and strive to promote the efficiency change and quality change of the review work.

The fourth aspect is that we actively strengthen communication and coordination with relevant departments, and actively strive for the support and cooperation of all sectors of society, including applicants, because the review work is not only the review, but also the cooperation of applicants, and we must do a solid job in ensuring all conditions.

At present, I hope that through the work in these aspects, we can finally reduce the examination period of invention patents by one third and the examination period of high value by half within five years.

I hope my answer will satisfy you.

[Hu Wenhui]Because of time, today’s press conference is here. Thank you again for your understanding and support. Thank you!

　　 Ducati’s "Monster" made its stunning debut at Colombo 20 years ago, which was greatly appreciated by the industry and the audience. The following year, "Monster" went on the market quickly, thus opening up a new market for NK streetcars. Over the years, Monster has continued to evolve and sell well, becoming the most popular car in Ducati. By the end of 2012, the total sales volume of this classic NK has exceeded 250,000 vehicles.

　　 2013 is the 20th anniversary of the launch of Monster. At this special moment, Ducati launched the 20th anniversary edition of Monster 696, 796 and 1100 EVO as a celebration of this long-lived classic NK.

　　 At present, NK streetcars are like crucian carp crossing the river, and Ducati "monster" can continue to be favored. One of the capital is its light and flexible handling performance. As the leader of the family, Monster 1100 EVO certainly can’t lose its courtesy, and further implement the principle of "the lighter the better", so that this "big car" with a displacement of 1078mL has a net mass of 169kg, which is the most compact and lightweight among similar competitors. It really makes people sit up and take notice. The skeleton of the "monster" is, of course, Ducati’s iconic steel tube bird’s nest frame, and at the same time, it is equipped with an aluminum alloy subframe, which is firm and light in structure. On the left side of the car body is a simple aluminum alloy single-sided rocker arm, which not only reduces the weight, but also fully displays the exquisite 10-spoke rim and double exhaust pipes on the right side, and at the same time strengthens the sports modeling of Monster 1100 EVO. The suspension system is also unconventional. The front wheel is equipped with Mazuqi 43mm inverted front fork positioned by sports car, and the rear part is equipped with Sachs single-tube shock absorber, which takes into account the sportiness and comfort in various road conditions.

　　 Different from the KYB fork of "Brothers", the front fork of "Big Brother" can adjust the preload, compression and rebound damping, which is convenient for the rider to "tailor-made". Although the Monster 1100 EVO is light, once you turn the throttle, you will immediately realize that this is definitely not a "car". The cylinder diameter and stroke of Monster 1100 EVO are the same as those of the previous Monster 1000, and the displacement remains unchanged at 1078mL, but the shape of air inlet and combustion chamber has been adjusted, and the efficiency has been improved. The new camshaft increases the valve lift, which makes the L-shaped double cylinder "breathe" deeper; The piston is also redesigned to obtain a higher compression ratio, from the previous 10.7:1 to 11.3:1. Ducati also tampered with the exhaust system of Monster 1100 EVO. The new 2-1-2 exhaust system not only gives people a strong feeling, but also has an electronically controlled valve, which is of great benefit to optimizing the torque output of EVO engine. After some transformation inside and outside, the new EVO engine can explode more energy. This is the first air-cooled 2-valve L-shaped twin-cylinder with a power of 73kW in Ducati, with a maximum power of 73.5kW(7500r/min) and a maximum torque of 103N·m, which will explode at a speed of 6000r/min.

　　 Ducati claims that the EVO engine can provide more stimulation for the rider, especially in the higher speed range, the performance of the L-shaped twin-cylinder is more powerful; At the same time, the torque curve shows distinct linear characteristics, so the rider will feel the power output more stable and smooth. The crankcase also contains mystery, and the vacuum die casting process used for super motorcycles was adopted in the manufacture, which reduced the problems of porosity and oxidation of castings and further improved the quality. Therefore, Ducati engineers reset the values such as the wall thickness of the crankcase, and further reduced the weight on the premise of meeting the strength requirements. The wet multi-disc clutch is responsible for transmitting power, which has the function of sliding clutch of sports car, and can alleviate the unstable situation at the rear when downshifting sharply at high speed.

　　 Monster 1100 EVO not only provides more driving pleasure, but also enhances the safety factor. This is the newly configured Ducati Safety Package (DSP), which is composed of DTC+ABS. One of the contents is the traction control system, which provides four modes to choose from, and the interference degree is enhanced step by step. Mode 4 is high interference, even the slightest rear wheel slip will be quickly repaired; Mode 1 is low interference and suitable for aggressive riders. When DTC is activated, the system compares the speed difference through the front and rear wheel sensors. Once the rear wheel shows signs of slipping, the traction control system will comprehensively analyze the data provided by various sensors and flexibly call two electronic intervention measures. The first is "soft" measures, mainly by delaying ignition to reduce power output. If DTC finds that the "soft" measures are not enough to control the rear wheel slip, it will further activate the "hard" measures, and order the engine ECU to reduce the fuel supply while continuing to adjust the ignition delay until the fuel supply is completely cut off. When the rear wheel slip is repaired, the normal power output will be restored immediately.

　　 Ducati claimed that the DTC intervention of Monster1100 EVO was smooth and natural, which further stimulated the rider’s confidence, especially the acceleration in the middle of the curve became safer. Another content of DSP is BOSCH-ABS. The control unit reads the speed information on the wheel sensor in real time, and once the speed difference is found to be lower than the safety standard, it immediately gives an instruction, and the electronically controlled valve opens accordingly, thus reducing the hydraulic pressure on the brake caliper; When the speed difference returns to a reasonable limit, the valve will close. This device enhances the safety factor and effectively reduces the danger of rear wheel locking when braking violently or when braking on low-grip roads. This anti-lock braking system is the standard configuration of Monster 1100 EVO, and it is optional equipment for Monster 696 and 796. Although Ducati has launched Streetfighter, the NK overlord with super performance, Monster 1100 EVO still has many fans because of its obvious advantages: abundant power and easy control, suitable for most ordinary riders; The weight of 169kg is light and easy to play with; In particular, the handle is slightly higher, the sitting posture is comfortable and natural, and it is not easy to get tired after a long journey, which is obviously better than the militant Streetfighter.

With the title of "China Hamburg", a fast food restaurant named Tasting has expanded rapidly in just a few years, killing all directions with "hand-rolled skin" and "freshly baked burger embryo", which has aroused many people’s curiosity-how can Hamburg be "China" when it is an exotic product? What does it taste like? Does it taste good？

Tasiting hamburger

/"Chinese food" in a national tide coat? /

Before 2018, Tustin was only a pizza delivery shop in Jiangxi, and then it began to transform into a hamburger. Currently, it is headquartered in Fuzhou. Tustin was a great success with two gimmicks: Chinese hamburger and handmade hamburger embryo. According to statistics, by the end of October 2022, Tasting had opened 2,890 stores in more than 200 cities across the country (there is no store in Beijing for the time being), mainly in second-tier cities and below.

Tasting’s core selling point lies in its hamburger embryo, which is more like a Chinese crust than the western bread used in ordinary hamburgers, which should also be the "China" of its advertised "China Hamburg".

In Tustin’s store, you can see the whole process of making hamburger skin in Ming chef, from hand-rolling, oven-baking, oven-opening, adding meat dishes, and a hamburger with meat in it is finished.

I have ordered Tasting’s spicy drumsticks twice in Chengdu, and the biggest feeling after eating is that Tasting’s hamburger embryo is really very similar to the cakes in Chinese food.

The taste is very tough, and it still bites a little bit, which is completely different from the soft bread embryo of K-Ji and M-Ji hamburgers. In addition, the fried chicken sandwiched in the middle is a little firewood and the juice is not enough, so it is a little bit expensive to eat as a whole.

As the core selling point, the "freshly baked burger embryo" is the difference between Tustin burger and K-Ji M-Ji burger. Its texture is between sesame seed cake and bread, and its taste is also between naan and steamed bread. Tougher than bread, but softer than steamed bread, some people are captured by this trait.

The unit price of a spicy chicken leg burger in Tasting is 12 yuan, and the package with French fries and drinks is 19.9 yuan. Other single-person packages are the most expensive and not more than those in 30 yuan. For those who want to eat these fast foods, the price is still very friendly.

Tasting, which flaunts itself as "China Hamburg", not only adds the most fashionable elements of national trends in store decoration and product packaging, but also the product settings are full of Chinese food flavors, such as fish-flavored shredded pork burger, Beijing roast duck burger and crayfish burger. In addition to cola, drinks are also equipped with Chinese hot drinks such as black rice pulp, peanut pulp and jujube drink.

So, aside from the gimmicks, is Tasting Burger delicious?

Everyone’s comments on this are mixed. Some people think that they just like eating hamburgers like Tustin, and they can’t stop eating them. However, some people insist that this is not like a hamburger at all. It is better to buy a proper hamburger at K Ji and M Ji.

Wallace

/Besides being cheap, it’s still cheap/

China brand, which is also engaged in fast food, has to mention another well-known enterprise-Wallace.

Unlike Tasting who shouted the slogan of the national tide loudly, Wallace insisted on the line of "takenism". From the name to the product, it is easy to be mistaken for a foreign brand.

The shrimp burger, chicken roll, cod burger and roast chicken leg burger in Wallace’s regular menu are all similar. There are fried dough sticks and chicken porridge for breakfast, and chicken popcorn, chicken nuggets and chicken wings for snacks … Wallace almost completely copied the "successful experience" of KFC and M.

Wallace’s products | Image from @ Wallace official Weibo

Despite the blatant traces of the cottage, Wallace, who has no advertising and marketing, has also prospered. At present, he has more than 10,000 chain stores and successfully listed on the New Third Board.

Wallace’s success is largely due to its low-cost strategy, which really makes many people hard to resist. There were three Hamburg activities in 10 yuan, which are still talked about today. Sometimes you can’t buy a bowl of noodles for 10 yuan, but you can get a set meal in Wallace. Who is not impressed by this price?

Wallace’s preferential activities | Screenshot from a preferential platform

However, there is one thing to say, affordable price is one thing, but questionable quality is another major feature of Wallace. Just open a review of a takeaway platform, there is no lack of spit on the product, and it is not surprising to have diarrhea after eating. Wallace was also labeled as a "jet package".

03

The dilemma of Chinese hamburger

Do you want "Chinese style" or "hamburger"? /

Although the packaging and loud slogans of the national tide are really attractive, there are many details in Tustin that reveal lingering embarrassment.

For example, he clearly advertised himself as Hamburg, China, but took an English name (Tastin TASTIEN). Moreover, from the point of view of the product itself, Tasting hamburger is more like a variant of snack meat buns and burritos. The question of whether Tasting hamburger is a hamburger or a hamburger has always been there.

Chinese hamburger | Tuchong creativity

China Hamburg sounds exciting, but just like American Chinese food, the concept itself is neither fish nor fowl. Although "China" is strongly emphasized everywhere, the best-selling product in Tustin’s shop is spicy chicken leg burger.

Open a takeaway platform at will. The monthly sales of Beijing Roast Duck Burger and Hot Spicy Chicken Burger are less than 100, while the monthly sales of Spicy Chicken Leg Burger can reach 600+. Sometimes the reality is like this. No matter how the concept is packaged, consumers will only give the most direct and true feedback according to their true feelings.

It’s not just the Tustins who are eyeing the "Chinese hamburger" track, such as Xibei’s "Jia Guolong Brewing Air Steamed Bread" business. As a chain store of northwest cuisine, Xibei regards air steamed buns with wine as "hamburger dough" with braised pork, beef, stinky tofu, braised pork intestines, chicken with rattan pepper, fried pork chops and other side dishes, threatening to be "China’s McDonald’s".

When everyone was still wondering whether a Chinese hamburger is a meat sandwich or a hamburger, Wei Jia Liangpi from Shaanxi gave another answer-selling both hamburgers and meat sandwiches!

Although there are not many kinds of chicken leg burger, fresh shrimp burger and beef cheese burger, everyone’s feedback is quite good. Cold rice noodles+hamburgers, while enjoying the happiness of Chinese-style carbon bomb and Western-style fast food, was clearly grasped by Wei’s cold rice noodles.

According to the data report of Zhiyanzhan Industrial Research Institute in 2022, Hamburg brands represented by McDonald’s, KFC, Burger King and Wallace account for more than 90% of the market. In the catering industry, how to use "China Hamburg" to get a big cake on the track of Hamburg, let us wait and see ~

Since July 5th, Henan has been in full swing, and it is extremely hot. Many places have been listed among the top ten high temperatures in China. Linzhou, Jiyuan and other places have broken through the historical extremes of daily maximum temperature since the establishment of the station, and the daily maximum temperature has exceeded 40℃.

Facing the scorching high temperature, the meteorological department of Henan Province regards the prevention of high temperature weather and meteorological services as an important practice to test the effectiveness of studying and implementing the theme education of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era, adheres to the principle of "people first, life first", carries out impact forecasting and meteorological risk early warning services step by step, and goes all out to prepare for "roasting" and welcome "roasting".

Forecasts, prevention and deployment, keeping an eye on the "outpost"

Before the arrival of high temperature weather, the meteorological department of Henan had already predicted it. On July 4th, just after the strongest regional rainstorm in Henan this year, an "Important Weather Report" entitled "High temperature weather will continue in the north and central part from 5th to 10th" was quickly sent to the provincial party committee, provincial government and relevant departments. The leaders of the provincial party Committee and the provincial government quickly deployed the prevention and response work. The general office of the provincial government issued an urgent notice, requiring all localities and departments to refine their response measures, strictly guard against secondary disasters caused by high temperature weather, effectively protect people’s lives and property, and maintain the normal order of social production and life.

With the release of the first high-temperature red warning this year by the Provincial Meteorological Observatory, the Provincial Meteorological Disaster Prevention and Weather Modification Command simultaneously upgraded the high-temperature four-level emergency response of major meteorological disasters to three-level. At the same time, according to the requirements of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, the provincial meteorological disaster prevention headquarters held a provincial high-temperature weather prevention and response dispatch meeting in the provincial meteorological bureau to discuss and judge the possible safety risks caused by high temperature on power and energy supply, transportation, outdoor work and public health, and deploy high-temperature prevention and response control measures.

Move at the smell of "police" State Grid Henan Electric Power Company quickly issued an internal high-temperature warning notice, equipped with sufficient emergency materials, and made emergency plans for various emergencies; The Provincial Department of Transportation has increased video scheduling in high-temperature warning areas and strictly monitored vehicle dynamics; The provincial emergency management department issued a safety reminder letter to urge all localities to implement various measures for safe production in hot weather. Party and government leaders from all over the country continue to deploy high-temperature weather prevention and response work at the meteorological department site.

Facing the social media, the Provincial Meteorological Bureau held two consecutive press conferences on high temperature weather on July 4th and 7th, explaining the causes of high temperature in detail, and releasing risk warnings to the industry and the public and related preventive science. Production and life safety under high temperature weather conditions became the focus of media reports.

Innovating services and building a firewall in key areas

"We make full use of intelligent inspection, unmanned aerial vehicles, online monitoring and other means to increase the frequency of live detection of equipment, dynamically evaluate the operation status of equipment, and fully guarantee the safe and stable operation of UHV equipment." On July 7, in Zhongmu UHV Zhongzhou Converter Station, the main channel for foreign power to enter Henan, the stationmaster Li Shuaibing was leading the power security personnel to carry out special inspections on UHV equipment intensively.

In the face of high temperature and high load, Zhengzhou Power Supply Company of State Grid organized staff to carry out special inspection Luo Hao photography on heavy overload equipment and lines.

According to the weather forecast and early warning service information, State Grid Henan Electric Power Company organized 737 emergency repair teams to patrol and operate the lines in key areas of the whole network, and completed the forecast of power grid load and total power generation in the whole province during the high temperature.

In order to do a good job in the meteorological service of ensuring energy supply during peak summer, Henan Meteorological Service Center set up a special class to research and develop high-impact risk forecasting products based on somatosensory temperature, closely focusing on the demand of power supply and safe operation of power grid. Wei Lu, deputy director of the center, said: "The special class produces the Special Report on Meteorological Services for Electric Power Dispatching every day, providing high-temperature risk forecast products and meteorological conditions forecast for wind power generation in the province and 18 cities in the next seven days, and establishing a’ joint consultation group for electric power meteorology’ to share forecasting and early warning information in real time."

In the face of high temperature and high load, Zhengzhou Power Supply Company of State Grid organized staff to carry out special inspection Luo Hao photography on heavy overload equipment and lines.

The high-speed pavement is scorched by the sun for a long time, which leads to the rapid rise of the surface temperature and becomes a major hidden danger of traffic safety. Along the Henan Expressway, the warning information of pavement high temperature displayed on the variable information board can be seen everywhere to remind the passing vehicles to prevent high temperature tire puncture.

This information comes from the expressway pavement high temperature forecast products developed by the Provincial Meteorological Service Center. During the high temperature period, the Provincial Meteorological Service Center produces two special traffic service reports every day, and releases the expressway pavement temperature forecast of the whole province in a rolling way. The provincial transportation department adjusts the road patrol time, cleans the road obstacles in time, and provides water cooling service for passing vehicles in various expressway service areas to reduce the risk of vehicle puncture and spontaneous combustion.

At present, it is the seedling growth stage of all kinds of autumn crops. How to consolidate the foundation of autumn grain when high temperature attacks? Field management is the key. Based on the monitoring data of automatic soil moisture monitoring station network in the whole province, the Provincial Agrometeorological Service Center made and published the high temperature risk forecast map of autumn crops in the whole province at seedling stage, and guided the plots lacking moisture to avoid high temperature periods and choose the right time for irrigation operations. In Jiazhuang Village, Heshangqiao Town, changge city, 450 mu of corn field has been laid in drip irrigation pipe, which has started to replenish water and conserve moisture.

The weather is "hot", but the "high roast" answer is full of skills. The sanitation department increased the frequency of sprinkling operations, medical and health institutions increased the reserves of relevant first-aid drugs, and the water supply department optimized the dispatching to ensure the water demand … According to the requirements of "one process and one policy", Henan Meteorological Bureau carried out accompanying high-temperature weather science popularization through platforms such as "two micro-ends" to provide suggestions for ensuring production and life, and to ensure that summer can be welcomed calmly, safely and smoothly.

Time flies, and the end of the year is cold. Before and after the New Year, the West has a tradition of exchanging greeting cards. People will personally select and even design exquisite cards, and personally send wishes for health, career and wealth to their families and close friends.

And among many sincere and warm congratulations, do you have a favorite sentence? There is such a sentence in the commonly used congratulations in English: "May Fortune Smile on you!" I wish you good luck year after year! , both vivid and human.

The word Fortune actually comes from Fortuna, the goddess of Fortuna in ancient Roman mythology. In the western tradition, her position is lofty, she is in charge of the fortune and wealth of the world, but she is moody and unpredictable …

Today, Deer invites everyone to enjoy a new baroque marble sculpture "Fable of Wealth" from 19th century France, while chatting with a "goddess of wealth" from the west.

01

The elusive beauty "God of Wealth"

Fortuna is one of the oldest gods in ancient Roman mythology, corresponding to Tyche in ancient Greek mythology. The word Fortuna comes from Ferre, which means "high yield" and "fertility". Her earliest logo was "Cornucopia", in which various crops were held, symbolizing a bumper harvest.

Left: Fortuna statue in ancient Rome; Right: The temple of Tunus in Rome, which is said to have been originally dedicated to Fortuna.

Due to the dependence of ancient agriculture on the weather and the lack of ability to resist natural disasters, this goddess was gradually endowed with the characteristics of "unpredictable". The goddess Fortuna on ancient Roman coins is often represented as sitting or stepping on a circle or wheel.

Fortuna on Roman coins

By the Middle Ages, influenced by the debates on "the inevitability of destiny" and "the impermanence of fortune" in the field of philosophy and literature, Fortuna was often portrayed as a blindfolded king in manuscripts, spinning the wheel of fortune at will and manipulating the ups and downs of all sentient beings.

The "wheel of fortune" symbolizes the vicissitudes of human destiny, which is irresistible and elusive.

The wheel of fortune, which coexists with Fortuna’s iconography, is also a distinctive iconography in the history of western art, and has been integrated into many architectural designs with circular elements.

Left: mosaic on the ground of Siena Cathedral; Right: The element of "Wheel of Fortune" in the flower window design of Trento Cathedral.

The unpredictability and moodiness of "fortune", as the characteristic of Fortuna, has been stably maintained by later generations. In the images, it is often depicted by her hair standing on a ball or wheel, which floats with the wind and flies upwards. In many moral paintings of the Renaissance, there is a warning of "don’t lust after things outside the body".

Rich and beautiful baroque style

The baroque style, which began at the end of the 16th century and flourished in the 17th century, created an era with magnificence, fullness and grandeur as its beauty. In the field of painting, in the works of Baroque masters such as Rubens and Rembrandt, attractive women are full of grace and passion for life, which is quite different from the dignified and graceful classical beauty.

With the development of still life painting in the northern region, the fertile corner full of fruits and flowers has become the most representative element in Baroque painting, commemorating the prosperity and luxury of a golden age.

Rubens, Marriage of Land and Water, in 1618, collected in Ermita Day (Winter Palace) Museum.

In 19th century France, which advocated retro and eclecticism, Baroque style was once again popular in sculpture. Gustave Deloye, the author of this fable of wealth that the deer met, was the famous French Baroque sculptor at that time.

Gustave Deloye, Saint Kyle the Evangelist, 1878, marble sculpture, collected by Orsay Museum. He has created a large number of decorative sculptures for public buildings in Vienna, Rome and St. Petersburg, and won many awards in salon exhibitions.

This marble sculpture "Fable of Wealth" was created by Gustave Deloye, a famous sculptor, and shows Fortuna, the goddess in charge of fortune and wealth. The statue is made in his best baroque style, and its rich physical beauty and graceful temperament are very suitable for the goddess identity, which can be described as a match made in heaven.

The overall height of the statue is 125 cm. The goddess sits on the wheel-shaped throne, and the water waves symbolizing wealth churn under the wheel. The spherical base is also the logo of Fortuna, made of purple marble with unique patterns.

The texture of the statue is delicate and plump, and the proportion of characters is accurate. The goddess’ beautiful face, rounded and harmonious limbs, and clear hair, the hardness and coldness of the stone seem to be gone under the skillful hands of the artist, and even the skin seems to have a temperature, which slowly fluctuates between breaths and exudes irresistible charm.

The goddess pursed her lips, smiled skillfully, with divine dignity, as if she had just met a lucky man and was very satisfied.

The goddess holds the horn of abundance in her arms, symbolizing the overflowing of delicious fruits and grains with endless wealth. The gentleness and charm that the goddess gently caresses with her delicate fingers make people feel uneasy.

The artist’s profound skill is reflected in every detail. Appreciating the beauty of the goddess’ smooth back, the bones and sensuality are all present, which shows the "softness" and "toughness" of women vividly. In particular, the pair of shallow depressions above the goddess’ buttocks are the structure called "Venus’ dimples", which is the finishing touch.

The whole sculpture is made of high-quality Carrara marble, which comes from the north-central Italian city of carrara. The stone produced in the marble yard there is hard in texture, fine and even in grain, and polished to be as beautiful as suet, which is the most suitable stone for sculpture.

John Sargent, Marble Quarry in carrara, 1911, Paper Watercolor, Boston Art Museum. In the 19th century, after risorgimento, the precious carrara marble was more convenient to transport, which also gave more European artists the opportunity to use this marble to create.

The artist’s signature and date "G(ve). Deloye, 81" can be seen on the wheel hub of the goddess’ "wheel of fortune".

This Fable of Wealth is full of the magnificent charm of Baroque art, and it is a masterpiece of famous French artists: Fortuna is elegant and elegant, with exquisite carving skills, and it is a collection-level sculpture. Such a marble work with appropriate size has excellent appearance so far, which is a rare "fortune" in the world.

It’s a matter of extraordinary people to master the luck.

But when Fortuna smiled at you,

Why not seize the fleeting opportunity,

Let Zhu Youchang, who is like a wheel, be with you?

　　Students of Ping ‘an Primary School in Neiqiu County, Hebei Province experience grinding Chinese herbal medicine in Chinese pharmacy. Xinhua news agency

　　Recently, the fact that eight universities of traditional Chinese medicine in China were excluded from the List of World Medical Colleges (hereinafter referred to as the List) was screened on the Internet, which aroused a thousand waves. Some people think that this is the western countries’ discrimination against Chinese medicine in China. Some overseas students are worried that their academic qualifications will not be recognized when they return to their home countries, and some China students who practice medicine abroad are worried that they will be disqualified from practicing medicine abroad. In response to these concerns and statements, the reporter conducted an interview.

　　1. Don’t make a fuss, but pay attention to it.

　　In the past, when the World Health Organization managed the Catalogue, traditional medical colleges (Chinese medicine colleges) were juxtaposed with western medicine colleges. However, the World Federation of Medical Education changed its practice after taking over the list. Now, the list only includes medical colleges that offer western medicine clinical medicine, but does not include traditional medicine such as Chinese medicine.

　　Therefore, the reason why eight universities of traditional Chinese medicine were removed from the List is that the current world list defines "medical college" as an educational institution that can provide complete guidance courses to obtain basic medical qualifications, that is, to train clinicians or doctors to practice licenses. At present, there are still 20 Chinese medicine universities such as Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Changchun University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the list.

　　The Directory was originally directly managed by the World Health Organization. On the surface, the World Federation of Medical Education is a subordinate unit of WHO, but in fact this subordinate relationship is different from that in China. Although the affiliation has changed from the World Health Organization to the World Federation of Medical Education, this directory still has some authority.

　　Regarding whether this delisting will affect the future development of Chinese medicine, Zhang Xu, dean of the School of International Education of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, believes that the delisting decision is not an evaluation of the quality or importance of traditional Chinese medicine. "The goal of the Catalogue is to provide accurate and up-to-date information about all institutions that meet the commonly understood and globally recognized definition of medical schools, which is of great importance to medical students and medical regulatory agencies all over the world."

　　The Ministry of Education emphasizes that "Chinese medicine colleges and universities are an indispensable part of medical colleges and universities in China. According to the Regulations of People’s Republic of China (PRC) on Academic Degrees, graduates of Chinese medicine colleges and universities are awarded corresponding degrees, and in accordance with relevant national laws and regulations, they take the qualification examination for practicing doctors and obtain the qualifications of doctors in corresponding categories. This fact will not be affected or changed because these Chinese medicine colleges are not included in the list of institutions managed by a non-governmental organization. "

　　It is reported that the delisting of eight traditional Chinese medicine schools has had an impact on graduates’ overseas practice. He Xinyi, a graduate of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine in 2013, majored in Chinese medicine. She received a bachelor’s degree in medicine in 2011 and a degree in master of medicine in 2013. At the end of September this year, she signed up for the American Medical Qualification Examination (USMLE), which is the only way to get into clinical practice in the United States. The examination of American international medical students is the responsibility of the Education Committee for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG). However, on November 1st, she received an official email from ECFMG, saying that the necessary condition for taking the exam organized by ECFMG is that the school where she graduated or attended must be in the List, but Beijing University of Chinese Medicine has been removed from the list, so she is not qualified to take the exam.

　　Tian Kan, Dean of School of Health Economics and Management, Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, said: "In the past, there was only one unified medical committee under WHO, and now it is divided into Chinese Medicine Management Committee and Western Medicine Management Committee. But in fact, Chinese medicine in China is different from traditional medicine in other countries. Internationally, western medicine is definitely the mainstream medicine, and traditional Chinese medicine is not the mainstream. Chinese medicine circles have always believed that China Chinese medicine is not a pure traditional medicine, but our view has not been publicized enough to the international community, and they do not understand it. Traditional Chinese medicine in China keeps pace with the times and develops constantly. We think that traditional Chinese medicine is not a pure heritage, and it is completely different from the western view that traditional Chinese medicine should be given priority in use and protection. Chinese medicine is not a traditional medicine, so eight schools have been excluded from the List, and domestic students are not affected. However, the diplomas obtained by foreign students studying Chinese medicine here will be affected abroad, so we can’t take it lightly. Some people regard this situation as discrimination against Chinese medicine in the West and deliberate suppression of China. This view is biased. So we can neither sit idly by nor make a fuss. "

　　2. The theory and practice of TCM are scientific.

　　Traditional Chinese medicine does not completely conform to the so-called science in the west, but it cannot be said that traditional Chinese medicine is not a science.

　　Peng Jinnian, director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, School of Pharmacy, Gannan Medical College, believes that the changes in the list should be treated rationally: "Through the understanding of the list, the inclusion criteria of the list should be changed. This list is used for the education plan of medical undergraduates worldwide. In the medical field around the world, the definition of medicine is based on western science, but the theoretical system of Chinese medicine is different from western science. Based on this, it is understandable that Chinese medicine colleges and universities are not included in the list, which does not mean that our Chinese medicine is not good."

　　Science exists for seeking truth, while medicine is for survival. The first priority of medicine is to treat diseases and maintain health, and science is an endless knowledge. Jiang Xiaoyuan, dean of the Institute of Science History and Science Culture of Shanghai Jiaotong University, said: "Traditional Chinese medicine does not have to prove itself to be science. There have been various arguments about whether there was science in ancient China … …” We no longer simply take modern science as the yardstick to measure all the technological achievements of ancient and modern times, and forcibly divide them into "scientific" and "unscientific".

　　At present, science cannot explain Chinese medicine, but the theory and practice of Chinese medicine are scientific.

　　Tu Youyou, a female pharmacist in China, won the Nobel Prize for artemisinin in 2015, which helps us to think deeply about this issue.

　　During the period of SARS in 2003, a large proportion of patients who were treated with western medicine were amputated because of their extensive use of hormones. Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine Wumen Medical School — — Deng Tietao reused Radix Isatidis, and none of the rescued patients suffered from femoral head necrosis. This is the difference in curative effect between Chinese medicine and western medicine. Deng Tietao said, "‘ Sars ’ It is a kind of epidemic febrile diseases, and Chinese medicine has a long history of treating epidemic febrile diseases and accumulated a lot of successful experience. The two affiliated hospitals of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine are mainly Chinese medicine, and the treatment ‘ Sars ’ The curative effect is remarkable. "

　　None of the 36 SARS patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine died and none of the medical staff was infected. The vast majority of patients were discharged without any sequelae. The average antipyretic time was 2.97 days, and the average hospitalization time was 8.86 days. All these cases were diagnosed as "SARS" by western medicine, and after being treated by Chinese medicine, they were confirmed to be cured by western medicine, and all of them had strict medical records.

　　Chinese medicine has made unprecedented development in the west.

　　"Let Chinese medicine go to the world, the purpose is to make the high-quality health care services of Chinese medicine benefit the world and benefit mankind. At present, Chinese medicine services cover 4 billion people in more than 180 countries and regions around the world. " Among them, more than half of the countries and regions in the world have legislation to protect Chinese medicine. This is mainly due to the fact that we have never been complacent, and Chinese medicine has always been innovative and advancing with the times, insisting on equal emphasis on Chinese and Western medicine, complementing each other and developing in a coordinated way. Although we don’t go to western science, Chinese medicine is getting closer and closer to the truth because of our long-term exploration and innovation.

　　The first female doctor of medicine in Senegal is Ava, who graduated from Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine. She learned professional knowledge of Chinese medicine in China and returned to West Africa to spread Chinese medicine. At present, she has treated more than 1100 patients suffering from various incurable diseases by using the knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, and has become a popular medical expert.

　　Giovanni Masocia, born in an Italian medical family, whose Chinese name is Ma Wanli, went to China to study Chinese medicine three times in 1980, 1982 and 1987. He is good at using acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine to solve intractable diseases, and his Chinese medicine clinic is full of people, which is known as "the father of Chinese medicine in Europe". His four textbooks on acupuncture have become common acupuncture textbooks in Europe. He once said: "In the past 15 years, Chinese medicine has made unprecedented development in the West … …”

　　And Ma Wanli is just one of the outstanding international students. Fasihong, a Nigerian student, used acupuncture anesthesia to successfully perform brain surgery on a patient who was in a conscious state after a car accident in skull fracture, and was praised as "a medical miracle" and "a new chapter in the history of African medicine" by local newspapers. Liu Weisi, a British student, gave birth painlessly with ear acupuncture, which became a big local news … …

　　"Up to now, it is very difficult for eight universities of traditional Chinese medicine to be removed from the List immediately. In this regard, we should actively communicate and coordinate, widely publicize the rationality and treatment results of traditional Chinese medicine, and get in touch with WHO to let them know the difference between traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine is innovative and developed, and traditional Chinese medicine is a cultural heritage. We should strive to return eight universities of traditional Chinese medicine to the List as soon as possible." Professor Tian Kan said this. (Reporter Zheng Jinming)
