US President Donald Trump announced on Thursday his intention to permanently pause immigration from what he described as "Third World countries."美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周四宣布，他打算永久暂停来自他所称的“第三世界国家”的移民。In a post on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump claimed that "immigration policy has eroded" national progress, and he would "permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries to allow the US system to fully recover."特朗普在其社交媒体平台Truth Social发文称，“移民政策已侵蚀”国家进步，他将“永久暂停所有第三世界国家的移民，让美国体系得以全面恢复”。He also threatened to take measures to reverse immigration decisions made under President Joe Biden, and to "remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States."他还威胁要采取措施推翻乔·拜登任内作出的移民决定，并“驱逐所有对美国没有净贡献的人”。In his post, Trump also announced plans to end all federal benefits and subsidies to "noncitizens," calling for thedenaturalization of migrants who, in his view, "undermine domestic tranquility."特朗普在推文中还宣布计划终止向“非公民”提供所有联邦福利和补贴，并要求剥夺那些在他看来“破坏国内安宁”的移民的公民身份。He emphasized a hardline stance, stating he would deport foreign nationals who are deemed "public charges," "security risks," or otherwise "incompatible with Western civilization."他强调采取强硬立场，声称将驱逐被认定为“公共负担”、“安全风险”或“与西方文明不相容”的外国公民。Trump's remarks came following the death of a National Guard member on Thursday after being shot near the White House by an Afghan national.特朗普的言论是在一名国民警卫队队员周四遇害后发表的，该队员在白宫附近遭一名阿富汗国民枪击身亡。denaturalizationn./diːˌnætʃərələˈzeɪʃən/剥夺国籍；变性

China has launched a nationwide inspection of fire hazards in high-rise residential and public buildings after a major blaze in Hong Kong killed at least 128 people, with about 200 others still unaccounted for, authorities said.中国政府宣布，香港发生重大火灾造成至少128人死亡、约200人下落不明后，中国已启动全国范围的高层住宅和公共建筑消防隐患排查工作。In a notice issued on Saturday, the Work Safety Committee of the State Council instructed local governments to immediately carry out checks and fix problems in occupied residential towers, office buildings, hospitals and shopping complexes. The campaign aims to prevent accidents linked to renovation work, aging facilities and blocked evacuation routes, the committee said.国务院安全生产委员会周六发布通知，要求各地政府立即对已投入使用的住宅楼、写字楼、医院和商场进行安全排查整改。该委员会表示，此次行动旨在防范因装修施工、设施老化及疏散通道堵塞引发的事故。The directive comes in the aftermath of Wednesday's fire at Wang Fuk Court, a residential estate in Hong Kong's Tai Po district. The blaze was first reported at 2:51 pm and quickly escalated to the city's highest alarm level, sending thick smoke billowing into the sky and spreading to seven of the development's eight apartment blocks. All visible flames were brought under control by Saturday.该指令是在周三香港大埔区旺福苑住宅区发生火灾后发布的。火灾于下午2时51分首次报告，迅速升级至全市最高警报级别，浓烟滚滚升腾至天空，并蔓延至该发展区八栋公寓楼中的七栋。截至周六，所有可见火势均已得到控制。Initial findings indicate the fire started on lower-floor scaffolding and spread rapidly due to flammable insulation materials and bamboo structures used for exterior wall repairs. The buildings were undergoing maintenance at the time, and the outer surfaces were covered with construction netting and othercombustible materials, investigators said.初步调查结果显示，火灾始于低层脚手架，因外墙维修使用的易燃隔热材料和竹制结构而迅速蔓延。调查人员称，事发时建筑正处于维护阶段，外表面覆盖着施工防护网及其他可燃材料。Under the new nationwide measures, checks will target risky renovation practices, such as unapproved construction, use offlammable insulation and hot work like welding in crowded indoor spaces.根据新出台的全国性措施，检查将重点针对高风险装修行为，例如未经批准的施工、使用易燃隔热材料，以及在拥挤的室内空间进行焊接等热作业。Inspectors will also focus on malfunctioning fire-fighting facilities, includingfire hydrants, sprinklers, smoke-control systems and emergency exits. Problems such as piles of combustible debris, blocked escape passages and electric bikes parked or charged in hallways are also listed as common hazards requiring immediate attention.检查人员还将重点排查消防设施故障问题，包括消防栓、喷淋系统、排烟系统及紧急出口。堆积的易燃杂物、被堵塞的逃生通道、以及停放在走廊或在走廊充电的电动自行车等隐患，也被列为需要立即处理的常见安全隐患。Local authorities have been told to combine self-inspections by building managers with random official checks. Hazards must be fixed without delay, and major issues will be subject to tighter supervision, the notice said. Severe violations will be punished.地方当局已接到通知，要求将建筑管理人员的自查与官方抽查相结合。通知称，隐患必须立即消除，重大问题将受到更严格的监督，严重违规行为将受到惩处。Officials said the campaign is intended to close safety loopholes and reduce the risk of large-scale tragedies, particularly in densely populated high-rise communities.政府人员表示，此次行动旨在堵塞安全漏洞，降低大规模悲剧发生的风险，尤其是在人口密集的高层住宅区。combustibleadj. /kəmˈbʌs.tə.bəl/可燃的，易燃的fire hydrants消防拴

Japan will "be destined to pay a heavy price" if it dares to cross the red line of the Taiwan question, a Chinese defense spokesman said on Thursday.一位中国国防部发言人周四表示，日本若胆敢跨越台湾问题的红线，“注定将付出沉重代价”。Jiang Bin, a spokesman for the Ministry of National Defense, made the remarks at a regular news conference in Beijing in response to Japan's claim that a plan to station medium-range surface-to-air missiles on Yonaguni Island, about 110 kilometers east of Taiwan, was making steady progress.国防部发言人姜斌在北京举行的例行记者会上作出上述表态，这是针对日本声称其在与台湾相距约110公里的与那国岛部署中程地对空导弹的计划“稳步推进”所作出的回应。In addition, Japanese Defense Minister Shinjiro Koizumi said on Sunday that the deployment will "lower the chance of an armed attack", while claiming it would not heighten regional tensions, Bloomberg reported.此外，据彭博社报道，日本防卫大臣小泉进次郎周日声称，这一部署将“降低武装攻击的可能性”，并称不会加剧地区紧张局势。At the briefing, Jiang stressed that the Taiwan question is purely China's internal affair.在记者会上，姜斌强调，台湾问题纯属中国内政。"How to solve the Taiwan question is a matter for the Chinese, and has nothing to do with Japan," he said.他说：“台湾问题怎么解决是中国人的事，与日本毫无关系。”This year marks the 80th anniversary of Taiwan's restoration to China, Jiang added.姜斌补充说，今年是台湾光复祖国80周年。"Instead of repenting its war crimes of invading and colonizing Taiwan, Japan is taking an extremely wrong approach by suggesting military intervention in a so-called Taiwan contingency," he said.他说：“日本非但不反思其侵略并殖民台湾的战争罪行，反而鼓吹在所谓‘台海有事’时进行军事介入，这是极其错误的行径。”This dangerous approach will uproot the post-World War II international order and lead Japan to repeat the mistakes of its militarist past, he emphasized.他强调，这种危险行为将撼动二战后国际秩序，使日本重蹈军国主义覆辙。"The People's Liberation Army has strong capabilities and reliable means to defeat any aggressors," Jiang said, warning that should Japan dare to cross the red line and invite trouble upon itself, it is destined to pay a heavy price.姜斌表示，中国人民解放军有强大的能力和可靠的手段击败任何来犯之敌。他警告说，日本若胆敢越线挑衅，自招祸端，必将付出沉重代价。Jiang also criticized Japan's recent actions in the military and security fields, urging the country to fully repent its war crimes and immediately abandon attempts at constitutional revision and military expansion.姜斌还批评了日本近期在军事安全领域的举动，敦促其深刻反省战争罪行，立即停止推动修宪和扩大军备。"Any attempt to repeat the evil path of aggression and expansion and undermine the post-World War II international order will not succeed," he said.他说：“任何试图重走侵略扩张的邪路、破坏二战后国际秩序的企图都不会得逞。”According to Kyodo News, Japan recently exported domestically produced Patriot surface-to-air missile interceptors to the United States. It was believed to be the first export of lethal weapons since Japan relaxed controls on its arms shipments.据共同社报道，日本近日向美国出口了国产“爱国者”地对空拦截导弹，被认为是日本放宽武器出口限制以来的首次致命性武器出口。Separately, The Asahi Shimbun reported that Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party has begun discussions on revising the National Security Strategy and two other defense documents.另据《朝日新闻》报道，日本执政党自民党已着手讨论修订《国家安全保障战略》等两份防务文件。The review could cover the Three Non-Nuclear Principles — not possessing, not producing and not permitting the introduction of nuclear weapons — as well as a further increase in defense spending.此次审查可能涉及“无核三原则”——不拥有、不制造、不引进核武器——以及进一步增加防卫开支。The spokesman said it remains an "ironclad fact" that Japan was a defeated country in World War II, noting that international treaties and instruments, including the Cairo Declaration, the Potsdam Proclamation and the Japanese Instrument of Surrender, clearly banned Japan from rearmament.发言人表示，日本在二战中战败是“铁一般的事实”，《开罗宣言》《波茨坦公告》和《日本投降书》等国际法律文件明确禁止日本再武装。"The international community must be on high alert against Japan's revisionist attempts to break away from the restraints of its pacifist Constitution in recent years," Jiang said.姜斌指出：“国际社会必须高度警惕日本近年来试图摆脱和平宪法束缚的修正主义企图。”Japan has been seeking to do so by brazenly expanding its military build-up, drastically increasing its defense budget, expediting revisions of its security policies, relaxing weapons export restrictions and attempting to revoke the Three Non-Nuclear Principles, he added.他补充说，日本通过大肆扩军、急剧增加防卫预算、加快修订安全政策、放松武器出口限制以及试图取消“无核三原则”等方式，企图突破宪法限制。"Japan is even attempting to intervene militarily on the Taiwan question. These moves pose serious threats to regional peace and stability," he warned.他警告说：“日本甚至妄图在台湾问题上进行军事干预。这些举动对地区和平稳定构成严重威胁。”This year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, he said.他说，今年也是中国人民抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争胜利80周年。"People around the world, especially those from China and other victimized countries in Asia, will never forget the catastrophe brought by Japanese fascists," Jiang said. "The specter of Japanese militarism must never be allowed to haunt the world again."姜斌表示：“全世界人民，尤其是中国和亚洲其他受害国人民，永远不会忘记日本法西斯带来的浩劫。”“日本军国主义的阴影绝不能再次笼罩世界。”cross the red line跨越红线medium-range surface-to-air missiles中程地对空导弹invite trouble upon itself自招祸端/自找麻烦military expansion军备扩张ironclad fact铁一般的事实

This episode of the podcast explores a term that has leapt from academic journals into our daily lives—from the illusion of companionship offered by television presenters in 1956 to today's millions watching influencers eat breakfast. That term is 'parasocial' (a one-way emotional connection), recently crowned Cambridge Dictionary's Word of the Year. It reveals the digital age's most paradoxical truth: The intimacy we share with strangers on the other side of the screen may far exceed that with our real-life neighbours. With AI companions on 24-hour standby and fans collectively losing sleep over their idols' romantic entanglements, this frictionless emotional substitute is reshaping the landscape of modern loneliness. Is this the antidote to social anxiety, or merely a substitute for genuine relationships? Why does increasingly sophisticated technology designed to make us feel understood paradoxically leave younger generations less equipped to navigate interpersonal conflicts?

The devastating fire that swept through the Wang Fuk Court residential complex in Tai Po, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, on Wednesday, causing heavy casualties, marks one of the most tragic incidents in the SAR's recent history. The catastrophe has highlighted the urgent need for a comprehensive review of safety protocols in high-density urban environments like Hong Kong.本周三席卷香港特别行政区大埔宏福苑住宅群、造成重大人员伤亡的火灾，是香港近年来最为惨烈的事故之一。这场灾难凸显出：在香港这样高度密集的城市环境中，全面审视并升级现行安全措施已迫在眉睫。President Xi Jinping immediately extended his condolences to the families of the victims and expressed his sympathy to those affected by the disaster on Wednesday. He urged the Hong Kong and Macao Work Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong SAR to support the SAR government in making every effort to put out the fire, carry out search and rescue operations, treat the injured, and provide post-disaster support. Xi also demanded that relevant departments and localities provide necessary assistance to the SAR government to strive to minimize the casualties and losses.习近平主席在事故发生当天立即向遇难者家属致以深切慰问，并对受灾群众表示关怀。他要求中共中央港澳工作办公室及中央政府驻港联络办公室全力支持特区政府灭火、搜救、救治伤者以及做好灾后支援工作。同时，他要求相关部门和地方对特区政府给予必要协助，尽最大努力减少人员伤亡和损失。This underscores the deep concern of the central government for the well-being of Hong Kong people, and is a reminder that the central authorities are always ready to stand behind the SAR and offer a helping hand whenever it is in need.这充分体现了中央对香港市民福祉的深切牵挂，也再次表明：每当香港需要时，中央政府都会坚定地作为后盾、伸出援手。The SAR government, led by Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu, has fully mobilized resources to extinguish the fire, carry out rescue operations, treat the injured, and provide assistance and emotional support to families. A full investigation is also being carried out. The arrest of three individuals from a construction company in connection with the fire signals a commitment to accountability.在行政长官李家超的领导下，特区政府已全面动员资源投入灭火、救援、救治伤者，以及为受影响家庭提供各类支援与心理安抚。同时，一项全面调查正在进行中。警方拘捕涉事建筑公司的三名人员，也显示出特区当局追究责任的决心。The tragedy should serve as a catalyst for reevaluating building safety standards and construction practices, particularly the use of bamboo scaffolding, which is still a common practice in Hong Kong, as this facilitated the rapid spread of the fire. There have been at least three fires involving bamboo scaffolding in Hong Kong this year, according to the SAR's Association for the Rights of Industrial Accident Victims.这场悲剧也应成为重新审视建筑安全标准和施工方式的契机，尤其是香港仍普遍使用的竹架棚，其存在加速了火势蔓延。根据特区“工伤权益协会”的数据，今年以来香港至少发生三起与竹棚架相关的火灾。The government's earlier decision to phase out bamboo scaffolding in public projects is a step in the right direction, but this policy needs to be accelerated and expanded to include all construction projects in the city.特区政府此前决定在公共工程中逐步淘汰竹棚架，此举方向正确，但相关措施亟需加快推进，并扩大至全市所有工程项目。Furthermore, the incident raises questions about the fire resistance of materials used in building exteriors. It is suspected that some of the materials on the exterior walls of the high-rise buildings did not meet current fire resistance standards, enabling the fire to spread unusually fast. This calls for an urgent review and, if necessary, a tightening and enforcing of building codes to ensure that all major materials used in construction are noncombustible and can withstand high temperatures.此外，这次事故也引发对外墙材料耐火性能的质疑。有迹象显示，高层建筑部分外墙材料可能未达到现行防火标准，致使火势异常迅速蔓延。亟需对相关建筑规范进行全面审查，并在必要时进一步严格标准与执行，确保主要建筑材料具备阻燃性和高耐热性。Incorporating fire safety into new developments and restoration work is also essential. This includes the installation of sprinkler systems, and the implementation of smoke detection technologies in both new and existing structures. Urban planners should also consider fire safety in the design of public spaces, ensuring that there are adequate escape routes, clear signage and accessible fire hydrants.在新建及翻新工程中系统性纳入消防安全同样至关重要，包括增设喷水灭火系统、配置烟雾探测技术，并确保新旧建筑都符合安全要求。城市规划中也应把消防安全纳入设计原则，确保公共空间具备足够的逃生通道、清晰的指示标识以及便利可达的消防栓等设施。Creating safe urban spaces requires a proactive and collaborative approach in which all stakeholders are committed to prioritizing safety and well-being. By being prepared, cities can better protect their communities from the devastating impacts of fires and other emergencies.建设安全城市需要积极、协同的治理方式，要求所有相关方都将公共安全和市民福祉置于优先位置。只有提前做好准备，城市才能更好地抵御火灾等突发事件带来的破坏。So in addition to these structural and regulatory considerations, there is a need for enhanced public awareness and preparedness. Community engagement initiatives can help build a culture of safety and vigilance, and fire drills and safety education can empower residents to respond more effectively to such emergencies.因此，除了制度和工程层面的改善之外，也必须提升公众的安全意识与应急准备。通过加强社区参与、建立安全文化、组织消防演练及普及安全教育，可使居民在面对紧急情况时具备更有效的应对能力。As Hong Kong mourns the loss of life and grapples with the aftermath of this disaster, it is crucial to channel collective grief into action. By strengthening safety regulations, updating construction practices, and enhancing emergency

After a five-alarm fire broke out at Wang Fu Court in Tai Po in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), resulting in at least 55 deaths, large numbers of residents had to be evacuated to community centers and halls with many warm-hearted neighbors in the district quickly offering to help, donating bottled water, biscuits, bread, clothing, and other supplies, according to local media reports.据香港特区多家媒体报道，大埔宏福苑发生五级火警，已造成至少55人遇难。大量居民被紧急疏散至社区中心和礼堂，而区内许多热心街坊迅速伸出援手，捐赠瓶装水、饼干、面包、衣物等物资。As temperatures at the fire scene were extremely high—and conditions in two or three of the buildings were particularly severe—firefighters encountered intense heat as they entered the blocks to battle the blaze, according to a report by the local media Wen Wei Po. The Fire Services Communications Centre maintained contact with trapped residents, while firefighters continued strenuous efforts to break through to the upper floors. Authorities urged those still trapped to keep their doors and windows closed and to seal the edges with wet towels or tape, the media report said.《文汇报》报道称，由于现场温度极高，且其中两三幢大楼的情况尤为严峻，消防员进入楼宇灭火时面临强烈高温。消防通讯中心持续与被困居民保持联系，消防员则全力设法突破至高层。有关部门呼吁仍被困者紧闭门窗，并用湿毛巾或胶带封住缝隙。The HKSAR government has opened a number of temporary shelters for people in need such as Tai Wo Neighbourhood Community Centre at Tai Wo Estate and Tung Cheong Street Sports Centre on Tung Cheong Street, according to the HKSAR government's website on Wednesday.据香港特区政府网站周三消息，当局已开放多个临时庇护中心，包括太和邨的太和邻里社区中心及东昌街的东昌街体育馆，以安置受影响居民。The fire broke out at Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po at 2:51 pm on Wednesday afternoon. It was upgraded to a No. 5 alarm at 6:22 pm. In the early hours of the Thursday morning, police arrested three local people on suspicion of manslaughter. The suspects are senior figures at the engineering firm responsible for maintenance work at the housing estate, according to local media reports.大火于周三下午2时51分在大埔宏福苑爆发，并于傍晚6时22分升为五级警报。周四凌晨，警方以涉嫌误杀拘捕三名本地人士。据报道，三人均为负责该屋苑维修工程公司的高层人员。Police arrested three persons in charge of the engineering company, including two directors and an engineering consultant, aged between 52 and 68. A reporter at the scene saw one suspect, wearing a hood, being escorted away by officers, the reports said.警方拘捕的三人包括两名董事及一名工程顾问，年龄介乎52至68岁。报道指，现场记者目击其中一名头戴头套的嫌疑人被警员带走。At Tai Po Community Centre, where some residents are staying temporarily due to the lack of suitable housing, a local district councilor Dominic Lee told the Global Times on Thursday that he is helping the residents in registration, resource distribution, and medication provision.在大埔社区中心，由于缺乏合适住所，一些居民暂时被安置在此。区议员李梓敬（Dominic Lee）周四向《环球时报》表示，他正协助居民进行登记、物资分发及药物供应。"Some residents are long-term patients whose medicines were left at home, so the Hospital Authority has coordinated the delivery of their medications through social services to the shelters," Lee said.李梓敬称：“部分居民是长期病患者，他们的药物留在家中。医院管理局已协调通过社会服务将药物送往庇护中心。”A number of residents and volunteers have also been assisting with relief efforts, and many young people spontaneously came to deliver and organize supplies, including bedding, portable chargers, and other essentials, Lee said.他还表示，不少居民和义工参与救援工作，许多年轻人自发前来搬运及整理物资，包括寝具、充电宝及其他必需品。"Overall, the situation remains stable while authorities await government announcements on formal resettlement plans. Given the severity of the damage, some residents may be unable to return home for an extended period and could require long-term relocation or rebuilding," he said.“整体情况保持稳定，大家正等待政府公布正式的安置方案。鉴于损毁严重，部分居民可能长时间无法回家，需要长期安置或重建。”他说。Currently, the shelters accommodate around 100 residents, Lee said.李梓敬表示，目前各庇护中心共安置约100名居民。There were around 300 to 400 people had been accommodated temporarily at CCC Fung Leung Kit Memorial Secondary School on Wednesday evening, where two registration queues were set up on-site: one for affected residents and the other for families of missing or uncontactable individuals. Evacuated residents were later transferred in batches to the Tung Cheong Street Community Hall, according to the Sing Tao Headline.据《星岛头条》报道，周三晚上约有300至400人被临时安置在基督教香港信义会冯梁结纪念中学。现场设有两条登记队伍：一条供受影响居民登记，另一条供失踪或无法联系者的家属使用。其后，已疏散居民分批转移至东昌街社区礼堂。In the aftermath of the disaster, heartwarming scenes quickly went viral online, touching people across Hong Kong. When one is in trouble, help comes from all sides: large numbers of caring citizens spontaneously rushed to the scene to transport supplies, even forming human chains to pass them along, showing the victims through their actions that "you are not alone."灾后，许多暖心画面迅速在网络上刷屏，感动全港。危难之际，众人来相助——大批市民自发赶赴现场搬运物资，甚至排成人链接力运送，用行动告诉受灾者：“你们并不孤单。”At CCC Fung Leung Kit Memorial Secondary School, besides a large number of government personnel, dozens of volunteers from various places were also present. Some volunteers delivered supplies, while others sorted them on-site, organizing bags of clothing and bedding, local media Ming Po reported.据《明报》报道，在冯梁结纪念中学，不仅有大量政府人员，还有数十名来自不同地方的义工。有义工负责运送物资，亦有义工在现场分类整理衣物、寝具等物品。Lai Siu-chung, director

Japan's stance on the Taiwan question has long defined its relations with China. Japan must reaffirm its commitment to the four important documents which are the bedrock of bilateral relations. However, it has purposely maintained strategic ambiguity on the Taiwan question.日本在台湾问题上的立场长期决定着中日关系的走向。日本必须重申其对构成两国关系基础的四个重要政治文件的承诺。然而，日本在台湾问题上刻意保持战略模糊。As a result, the Taiwan question has remained a persistent pivot, shaped by Japan's post-war legal positioning, its domestic political constraints and, above all, its reliance on the United States-Japan security alliance.因此，台湾问题一直是中日关系的关键点，受日本战后法律定位、国内政治约束，尤其是对美日同盟依赖的共同影响。After World War II, Japan accepted the Potsdam Proclamation and its requirement to restore Taiwan to China. But in practice, it followed the US-led "Treaty of San Francisco" signed in 1951, which had been signed without the participation of representatives from China. That "treaty" required Japan only to "renounce" Taiwan, without specifying its return to China. Using this omission as an excuse, Japan claimed it did not have the legal authority to define "Taiwan's status".二战后，日本接受《波茨坦公告》及其“台湾归还中国”的要求。但在实践中，日本却遵循1951年美主导的《旧金山和约》——该“和约”签署时并无中国的参与。该“和约”要求日本“放弃”台湾，但并未明确台湾应归还中国。日本借此漏洞声称其无权定义“台湾地位”。The position was blatantly contradictory. Japan was simultaneously agreeing to adhere to the Potsdam Proclamation while relying on a so-called "treaty" that obscured what Potsdam had made explicit. This dual-track approach was driven not by legal logic, but by strategic calculation.这种立场明显自相矛盾。日本一方面声称遵守波茨坦公告，另一方面又依赖一个刻意模糊其明确内容的所谓“和约”。这种“双轨策略”源于战略算计，而非法律逻辑。Another key factor in Japan's Taiwan policy is the US-Japan security framework during the Cold War. During the early Cold War, the US regarded Taiwan as a critical strategic asset.影响日本台湾政策的另一关键因素是冷战时期的美日安全框架。在早期冷战中，美国将台湾视为重要战略资产。As China and Japan sat down to normalize ties in the 1970s, the US was deeply concerned about how Japan would address the Taiwan question in the negotiations. Tokyo repeatedly reassured Washington that the US-Japan alliance would not be affected and that the US would have access to bases for "Taiwan-related operations".当中日于上世纪70年代讨论邦交正常化时，美国高度关注日本在谈判中如何处理台湾问题。东京反复向华盛顿保证，美日同盟不会受影响，美国仍可使用驻日基地进行“涉台行动”。Even after normalization of China-Japan diplomatic relations, Japanese officials stated that including Taiwan within the "Far East" framework served US strategic interests.即便中日实现邦交正常化，日本官员仍声称将台湾纳入“远东”框架符合美国战略利益。After the Cold War, Japan further strengthened these security linkages. The 1997 and 2015 revisions in the Guidelines for Japan-US Defense Cooperation broadened bilateral roles in regional contingencies, widely interpreted as including the Taiwan island.冷战结束后，日本进一步强化了这些安全联动。《日美防卫合作指针》于1997年和2015年的修订扩大了双方在地区突发事件中的角色，普遍被解读为涵盖台湾地区。Japan's 2015 security legislation tried to provide so-called "legal grounds" for supporting US military operations in a "crisis in Taiwan".日本2015年的安保法试图为日本在“台湾有事”时支持美国军事行动提供所谓“法律依据”。In 2021, for the first time since 1969, Japan and the US issued a joint statement expressing concerns over peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.2021年，美日首次自1969年以来在联合声明中对台湾海峡的和平与稳定表示关切。The recent provocative remarks by Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi have severely damaged ties with China.日本首相高市早苗近期的挑衅性言论严重损害了中日关系。Speaking in the Japanese Diet, she claimed that a "Taiwan contingency" would constitute a "survival-threatening situation" for Japan — the most explicit formulation ever made by a serving Japanese leader.她在国会中声称，“台湾有事”将构成日本的“存亡危机事态”——这是日本在任领导人迄今最明确的表述。Her statement not only breaks with Tokyo's long-standing strategic ambiguity but also signals a shift toward treating Taiwan as a core element of Japan's national security, which is a blatant violation of China's internal affairs.此言论不仅突破东京长期坚持的战略模糊，更表明日本正将台湾视为其国家安全核心要素，公然干涉中国内政。Japan's dual-track approach of offering political assurances to China while aligning with the US regional strategy during past US administrations has given Tokyo flexibility, but also created inconsistencies.日本过去以对华政治保证与配合美国地区战略并行的“双轨模式”虽为东京带来灵活性，却也造成了明显矛盾。Japan claims it abides by the Potsdam Proclamation but relies on the "San Francisco Peace Treaty", which China regards as invalid.日本声称遵守《波茨坦公告》，却依赖中国明确视为无效的《旧金山和约》。Japan reassures China that it does not support Taiwan independence and upholds the one-China principle, yet expands the scope of US-Japan military cooperation in ways that could involve Japan in "Taiwan contingencies".日本安抚中国，声称不支持“台独”并坚持一个中国原则，但同时不断扩大可能使其卷入“台湾有事”的美日军事合作范围。However, as the Chinese leadership and the incumbent US administration reaffirm the importance of managing the Taiwan question responsibly, Japan's increasingly explicit security framing stands in sharp contrast.然而，在中美领导层均强调负责任管控台湾问题的重要性之际，日本愈发明确的安全定位形成鲜明对比。Rather than reducing tensions, Tokyo's new rhetoric risks injecting additional uncertainty into an issue that the world's two major countries are actively seeking to stabilize.东京的新言论非但不会缓和局势，反而可能向这一中美共同努力稳定的问题注入更多不确定性。Fortunately on Nov 24, President Xi Jinping

Changchun has been chosen to host the 33rd Winter Universiade in 2027, the International University Sports Federation announced on Wednesday, marking a major boost for tourism and economic development in Northeast China's Jilin province.国际大学生体育联合会周三宣布，长春市获得2027年第33届冬季世界大学生运动会主办权，这将极大促进中国东北吉林省的旅游业和经济发展。At the FISU executive committee meeting held in Changchun on Wednesday afternoon, the city successfully won the bid to host the event following a vote by the committee members.在周三下午于长春举行的国际大学生体育联合会执行委员会会议上，经委员投票表决，该市成功获得主办权。The announcement marked the return of the international sports event for university students to China, following the hosting of the 31st Summer Universiade in Chengdu, Sichuan province, in 2023.该公告标志着这项面向大学生的国际体育赛事重返中国，此前第31届夏季世界大学生运动会已于2023年在四川省成都市成功举办。The FISU Winter Universiade is held every two years in different cities around the world, with the aim of promoting international university sports and culture. It is the largest comprehensive winter sports event for university students worldwide, attracting thousands of student athletes during each edition.国际大学生体育联合会冬季世界大学生运动会每两年在世界各地不同城市举办，旨在促进国际大学体育与文化交流。作为全球规模最大的大学生冬季综合性体育赛事，每届赛事都吸引着数千名大学生运动员参与。The Changchun 2027 Winter Universiade will take place from Jan 15 to 25. "The opening and closing ceremonies will be held at the Changchun Five Rings Sports Center, with competitions taking place in Changchun, which is the main venue, and Jilin city, which is the secondary venue," Gu Gang, mayor of Changchun, said at a news conference after the meeting. "The games will feature 12 major disciplines and 93 subdisciplines."2027年长春冬季世界大学生运动会将于1月15日至25日举行。长春市市长顾刚在会议后的新闻发布会上表示：“开幕式和闭幕式将在长春五环体育中心举行，比赛将在主会场长春市和副会场吉林市进行。”本届冬运会共设12个大项、93个小项。According to Gu, the ice events include speed skating, short track speed skating, figure skating, ice hockey and curling.据顾刚介绍，冰上项目包括速滑、短道速滑、花样滑冰、冰球和冰壶。The snow events include cross-country skiing, alpine skiing, biathlon, freestyle skiing, snowboarding, ski mountaineering and ski orienteering.雪上项目包括越野滑雪、高山滑雪、冬季两项、自由式滑雪、单板滑雪、登山滑雪和滑雪定向。Changchun will host all the ice events as well as cross-country skiing, ski orienteering, and aerials in freestyle skiing, totaling eight major disciplines and 50 subdisciplines.长春将承办所有冰上项目以及越野滑雪、滑雪定向和自由式滑雪空中技巧，共计八大项目、五十个小项。The Jilin city venues — Lake Songhua Resort and Beidahu Ski Resort — will host alpine skiing, ski mountaineering, biathlon, snowboarding, and the slopestyle, big air and half-pipe events in freestyle skiing, totaling five major disciplines and 43 subdisciplines.吉林市的两个场馆——松花湖度假区和北湖滑雪场将承办高山滑雪、登山滑雪、冬季两项、单板滑雪，以及自由式滑雪中的坡面障碍技巧、空中技巧和U型场地项目，共计五大类43个分项赛事。"Located in the world's golden latitude for snow, Changchun is known as the 'City of Powder Snow', boasting six major ski resorts, 52 ski trails, and numerous winter sports activities, making it a skiing paradise," said Gu. "Changchun, a famous sports city, has hosted major events like the Asian Winter Games, National Winter Games, and has produced Olympic champions."顾刚表示：“长春位于全球最佳滑雪纬度带，素‘'粉雪之城’美誉，拥有六大滑雪场、52条雪道及丰富多样的冬季运动项目，堪称滑雪天堂。作为著名体育城市，长春曾成功举办亚冬会、全国冬运会等重大赛事，并培养出多位奥运冠军。”Gu added that Changchun will fulfill its responsibilities as the host city, striving to present to the world a grand ice and snow sports event with Chinese characteristics, demonstrating the spirit of the times and showcasing youthful vitality.顾刚表示，长春将履行主办城市责任，努力向世界呈现一场具有中国特色、彰显时代精神、展现青春活力的冰雪盛会。In recent years, Changchun has focused on developing the ice and snow industry, creating winter tourism projects and accelerating the transformation of cold resources into hot economy.近年来，长春着力发展冰雪产业，打造冬季度假项目，加速将冷资源转化为热经济。"Hosting this 33rd Winter Universiade is a great development opportunity for the tourism and economic sectors of Jilin province — the whole world will see you and the winter sports you propose," said FISU President Leonz Eder. "And of course it is also a great opportunity for FISU to further develop our ties with the region and the country as a whole."国际大学生体育联合会主席雷诺·艾德表示：“承办本届第33届冬季世界大学生运动会，对吉林省的旅游业和经济领域而言是绝佳的发展机遇。全世界都将见证吉林的魅力与你们推崇的冬季运动。”他补充道：“当然，这对国际大学生体育联合会而言，也是深化与该地区乃至整个中国合作的良机。”FISU Secretary-General and CEO Matthias Remund vowed to do everything to assist the host city, guide it, and to transfer all the knowledge from past editions.国际大学生体育联合会秘书长兼首席执行官马蒂亚斯·雷蒙德承诺将全力协助主办城市，提供指导，并传授历届赛事的全部经验。International University Sports Federation（FISU）国际大学生体育联合会Ski Resort滑雪场speed skating速度滑冰figure skating花样滑冰ice hockey冰球cross-country skiing越野滑雪alpine skiing高山滑雪

President Xi Jinping expressed condolences on Wednesday for the victims of a major fire at a residential area in the Tai Po area of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and for the firefighter who died in the line of duty.习近平主席周三对香港特别行政区大埔区一住宅区发生重大火灾的遇难者表示哀悼，并对在执行任务中殉职的消防员表示哀悼。Xi extended his sympathies to the families of the victims and those affected by the disaster, and called for all-out efforts to put out the blaze and minimize the casualties and losses.习近平向遇难者家属和受灾群众表示慰问，要求全力以赴扑灭火灾努力把火灾伤亡损失降到最低。The huge blaze engulfed several residential buildings in a housing estate in Tai Po, New Territories, on Wednesday afternoon, resulting in significant casualties.周三下午，新界大埔一处住宅区发生大规模火灾，数栋住宅楼被大火吞噬，造成重大人员伤亡。Following the incident, Xi, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, promptly learned of the information about the fire rescue efforts and the casualties.事发后，中共中央总书记、中央军委主席习近平第一时间获悉了火灾救援工作及人员伤亡情况。He urged the Hong Kong and Macao Work Office of the CPC Central Committee and the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong SAR to support the SAR government in making every effort to put out the fire, carry out search and rescue operations, treat the injured, and provide post-disaster support.他敦促中共中央港澳工作办公室和中央人民政府驻香港特别行政区联络办公室支持特区政府全力灭火、开展搜救、救治伤员并提供灾后援助。He also demanded that relevant departments and localities provide necessary assistance to the SAR government to strive to minimize the casualties and losses.他还要求有关部门和地方向特区政府提供必要协助，努力将人员伤亡和损失降到最低。The SAR government activated its emergency rescue mechanism, and the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong SAR has established an emergency task force to maintain close communication with the SAR government and fully support the rescue efforts.香港特别行政区政府启动了紧急救援机制，中央人民政府驻香港特别行政区联络办公室已成立应急工作组，与特区政府保持密切沟通，全力支持救援工作。Rescue operations were underway.救援行动正在进行中The death toll continued to rise after the blaze broke out, with at least 13 dead and many others injured. Many residents were reported to have been trapped in their homes, with seven out of the total eight buildings on the residential estate on fire and a plume of smoke engulfing the sky and visible from far away. The fire continued to escalate into the night, with burning objects falling and explosions at the scene.火灾发生后死亡人数持续攀升，目前已造成至少13人死亡，多人受伤。据报道，许多居民被困家中，该住宅区八栋楼房中有七栋起火，浓烟滚滚笼罩天空，远方皆可望见。火势持续蔓延至深夜，现场不断有燃烧物坠落并发生爆炸。The blaze, which started at around 2:51 pm, was upgraded to a No 4 alarm at 3:34 pm, and it was further upgraded to a No 5 alarm, the second highest, at 6:22 pm.这场大火于下午2时51分左右起火，下午3时34分升级为4级警报，随后于下午6时22分进一步升级为5级警报，这是第二高警报级别。Wang Fuk Court, currently under renovation, is a housing complex of eight buildings and nearly 2,000 residential units.宏福苑目前正在进行翻新工程，该住宅区由八栋楼宇组成，共计近2000个住宅单元。Nine people were found dead at the scene and four others were later confirmed dead after being sent to hospitals. Among the dead was 37-year-old firefighter Ho Wai-ho. Six people were still in serious condition. The injured were sent to nearby hospitals for further treatment.现场发现九人死亡，另有四人送医后确认死亡。死者中包括37岁的消防员何伟豪。六人伤势危重，伤者已被送往附近医院接受进一步治疗。Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu has extended his deepest condolences regarding the firefighter who lost his life while performing his duties and to the families of the deceased.香港行政长官李家超就一名消防员在执行任务时不幸殉职，向逝者家属致以最深切的哀悼。Lee said in a Facebook post that he had immediately activated an emergency monitoring and support center, received reports from the Security Bureau and the Fire Services Department, and instructed the emergency and fire departments to make every effort in firefighting and rescue work.李家超在脸书发文称，他已立即启动应急监测支援中心，接收保安局及消防处的报告，并指示应急及消防部门全力投入灭火及救援工作。The Fire Services Department of the HKSAR government sent 767 personnel to the scene.香港特别行政区政府消防处派出767名人员前往现场。The department said seven 32-story buildings, which all have bamboo scaffolding erected for renovation, were on fire. The conditions were extremely hazardous, with debris continuously falling and the number of distress calls increasing, which necessitated the escalation of the fire to a No 5 alarm, the department told media in an on-site briefing.消防部门表示，七栋32层高的建筑物正在燃烧，这些楼宇均已架设竹制脚手架进行翻修。现场情况极其危险，碎片不断坠落，求救电话数量持续增加，因此消防部门在现场简报会上向媒体通报，必须将火警级别提升至5级。The Hong Kong government has opened five temporary shelters to accommodate affected residents, and a secondary school has also been opened to house evacuated residents. Several hundred people gathered at the temporary shelters, where bread, water and biscuits were being distributed.香港政府已开设五处临时收容所安置受灾居民，并开放一所中学收容疏散居民。数百人聚集在临时收容所，现场正分发面包、饮用水和饼干。Hong Kong Special Administrative Region香港特别行政区engulfv./ɪnˈɡʌlf/包围；吞没；淹没death toll死亡人数blazev. /bleɪz/熊熊燃烧

Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's refusal to retract her erroneous remarks on theTaiwan question, together with Tokyo's accelerating military buildup near China's doorstep, threatens to push China-Japan relations to a dangerous inflection point.日本首相高市早苗拒绝收回其在台湾问题上的错误言论，加之东京正在中国家门口加速军事扩张，这一态势可能将中日关系推向危险的转折点。By linking the Taiwan question to a "survival-threatening situation" and implying the possibility of Japan's armed intervention in the Taiwan Strait, Tokyo has not only touched China's red line but also shaken thepolitical foundation of bilateral relations.日本政府将台湾问题与“生存威胁”挂钩，并暗示日本可能对台湾海峡采取武装干预，此举不仅触碰了中国的红线，更动摇了双边关系的政治根基。Takaichi's remarks encapsulate a policy orientation that contradicts thesolemn commitments the Japanese government has made regarding the Taiwan question in the four political documents between China and Japan, which leave no room for ambiguity or misinterpretation.高市早苗的言论所体现的政策取向与日本政府在《中日四项政治文件》中就台湾问题作出的庄严承诺相悖，这些文件不留任何模棱两可或误解的余地。As Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi emphasized on Sunday, if Japan persists in its own way and keeps making the same mistakes, all countries and people who advocate justice have the right to reexamine Japan's historical crimes and the responsibility to resolutely prevent theresurgence of Japanese militarism.正如中国外交部长王毅周日强调的，如果日本一意孤行、重蹈覆辙，所有主张正义的国家与人民都有权重新审视日本的历史罪行，更有责任坚决防止日本军国主义死灰复燃。Recent developments have reinforced the gravity of the situation. Japan's Defense Minister Shinjiro Koizumi has announced that Tokyo will proceed with thedeployment of intermediate-range missiles on Yonaguni Island—barely 110 kilometers from China's Taiwan region—and the rapid expansion of Japan Self-Defense Forces' facilities across the Ryukyu Islands.近期一系列事态发展进一步凸显了局势的严峻性。日本防卫大臣小泉进次郎宣布，东京将推进在距中国台湾地区仅110公里的与那国岛部署中程导弹，并加速在琉球群岛全境扩建日本自卫队设施。These moves, as Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said on Monday, are a deliberate attempt to create regional tension and provoke military confrontation. They come alongside Japan's first export of lethal weapons since the relaxation of arms export rules and renewed discussions within the Liberal Democratic Party on revising the three non-nuclear principles upheld by Japan and further increasing its defense spending.正如中国外交部发言人毛宁周一所言，这些举动是蓄意制造地区紧张局势、挑起军事对抗的行径。与此同时，日本在放宽武器出口规则后首次出口致命武器，自民党内部也重新讨论修改日本奉行的“三无核原则”，并进一步增加国防开支。The Potsdam Declaration clearly prohibits Japan from rearming and Japan's pacifist Constitution establishes the exclusive defense-oriented principle. High vigilance from the international community is imperative given Tokyo's obvious intent to brush this principle aside.《波茨坦公告》明确禁止日本重新武装，而日本和平宪法确立了以防卫为宗旨的排他性原则。鉴于东京方面明显有意无视这一原则，国际社会必须保持高度警惕。The moves Japan has taken since Takaichi took office last month all demonstrate Japan is trying to break free from the bounds imposed on it by the postwar arrangement that sought to prevent a repeat of its aggression. The international community therefore has every reason to ask—what exactly is Japan seeking to achieve?自上月高市早苗上任以来，日本采取的一系列举措都表明，该国正试图摆脱战后为防止其侵略历史重蹈覆辙而设定的桎梏。因此，国际社会完全有理由追问：日本究竟意欲何为？China has noted Japan mentioning its "consistent position" on the Taiwan question, but as the Foreign Ministry spokeswoman asked, what exactly is this so-called "consistent position"? Can Japan fully and publicly articulate it? If Japan merely reiterates the concept of "an unchanged position", while remaining vague about its specific content and constantly overstepping its boundaries with its actions, then such reiteration is empty rhetoric.中方注意到日方提及在台湾问题上的“一贯立场”，但正如外交部发言人所问，所谓“一贯立场”究竟是什么？日本能否完整、公开地阐述？如果日本只是重复“立场不变”的概念，对具体内容含糊其辞，同时不断以行动越界，那么这种重复不过是空话。Sino-Japanese relations cannot be built on ambiguity, provocation or historical amnesia, which would only become a prelude to repeated history.中日关系不能建立在模糊不清、挑衅和历史遗忘之上，这些只会成为历史重演的前奏。The historical parallel is chilling. The use of pretexts such as "survival-threatening situation" has been a recurring tactic of Japanese militarism—from its 1931 invasion of Northeast China to the expansion of its aggression across Asia and the attack on Pearl Harbor. As the Chinese nation marks the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War, the alarm cannot be ignored. It seems the only thing the Takaichi government learns from history is that it learns nothing from history.历史的相似性令人不寒而栗。日本军国主义屡屡以“生存威胁”等借口为由发动侵略——从1931年侵占中国东北，到在亚洲扩张侵略，再到袭击珍珠港。值此中华民族迎来抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争胜利八十周年之际，这般警钟不容忽视。高市早苗政府从历史中汲取的唯一教训，似乎就是“不汲取任何教训”。Japan's current stance also tramples on historical facts. For half a century, Japan forcibly occupied China's Taiwan island, inflicting enormous suffering on the local population. Taiwan's restoration to China is explicitly affirmed in the Cairo Declaration, the Potsdam Proclamation and the Japanese Instrument of Surrender. Taiwan is China's inalienable territory—this is not only a matter of sovereignty but also an integral part of the postwar internat

As winter temperatures continue to drop, people in Northeast China are already looking forward to the upcoming ice and snow season.随着冬季气温持续下降，中国东北地区的人们已开始期待即将到来的冰雪季节。Construction of the 27th Harbin Ice and Snow World, one of the most popular attractions in Harbin, Heilongjiang province, officially began on Tuesday morning as ice blocks stored for more than 10 months were transported to the park.黑龙江省哈尔滨市最受欢迎的景点之一——第27届哈尔滨冰雪世界于周二上午正式开工建设，储存逾十个月的冰块被运抵园区。A total of 200,000 cubic meters of ice harvested last winter has been preserved throughout the year for the 27th edition of the park, ensuring that the area opens to tourists earlier than usual.为迎接第27届冰雪节，去年冬季采收的20万立方米冰块经过全年保存，确保园区能比往年更早向游客开放。Because man-made ice often contains air bubbles and lacks the strength needed for carving, the blocks used in the park are taken from the frozen Songhua River.由于人工冰块常含气泡且缺乏雕刻所需的强度，公园使用的冰块均取自冻结的松花江。Using a mix of traditional ice-storage methods and modern multilayer insulation, Harbin Ice and Snow World Co created conditions — low temperature, light avoidance, insulation and sealing — that kept the ice from melting even when temperatures exceeded 30 C in the peak of summer.哈尔滨冰雪大世界股份有限公司采用传统冰储存技术与现代多层隔热材料相结合的方式，创造了低温、避光、隔热和密封的条件，即使在盛夏气温超过30摄氏度时，冰体也得以保持不融化。The first batch of blocks will be used to build the super ice slide and the main tower.首批冰块将用于建造超级冰滑梯和主塔。"This winter, we have carefully incorporated suggestions from visitors and netizens, integrating elements of the Great Wall, such as its walls and watchtowers, into the design of the super ice slide," said Cong Peiyu, director of the company's design and research department. "The ice-built Great Wall, a key part of the super ice slide, is grand and visually striking, and will become a new landmark for visitors to photograph and interact with."公司设计研究部主任龚培玉表示：“今年冬天，我们认真采纳了游客和网友的建议，将长城元素如城墙、瞭望塔等融入超级冰滑梯的设计中。作为超级冰滑梯的核心部分，这座冰筑长城气势恢宏、视觉震撼，将成为游客拍照互动的新地标。”In the coming days, about 10,000 construction workers will take on the park's most artistic ice and snow challenge, combining ice, snow, sound and lights.未来几天，约1万名建筑工人将迎接这座公园最具艺术性的冰雪挑战，将冰、雪、声与光融为一体。This winter, the park will expand its area from 1 million square meters to 1.2 million sq m, using more than 400,000 cu m of ice and snow — both record highs.今年冬季，该公园将把面积从100万平方米扩大至120万平方米，使用超过40万立方米的冰雪——这两项数据均创历史新高。"To enrich the visitor experience and enhance service quality, the park will introduce new facilities such as a ticketing hall, a snowfield hot spring camp, and new activities including winter fishing, cross-country skiing and snow soccer," Cong said. "An ice and snow stage will be built to complement the Dream Stage, enhancing park performances."龚培玉表示：“为丰富游客体验、提升服务品质，公园将新增售票大厅、雪场温泉营地等设施，并推出冰钓、越野滑雪、雪地足球等新活动，还将建造冰雪舞台与梦幻舞台相呼应，丰富园区演出内容。”The classic Dream Stage will continue to focus on interactive celebrations, creating an energetic disco-style atmosphere for thousands of visitors.经典梦幻舞台将继续聚焦互动庆典，为数千名游客营造充满活力的迪斯科风格氛围。The newly planned stage will incorporate high-level international performance elements, offering a distinct audiovisual experience.新规划的舞台将融入高水准的国际表演元素，呈现独特的视听体验。A grand ice- and snow-themed parade will take place between the two stages, creating a dynamic performance landscape throughout the park.一场以冰雪为主题的盛大游行将在两个舞台之间举行，为整个园区营造出充满活力的表演景观。Meanwhile, park services will be upgraded to offer a more convenient and efficient smart-tourism experience.同时，园区服务将升级升级，提供更便捷高效的智慧旅游体验。More seating areas, restrooms and other public facilities will be added to improve visitor satisfaction.园区还将将增设更多休息区、卫生间及其他公共设施，以提升游客满意度。Despite the upgrades in scale, activities and services, the standard adult ticket price will remain 328 yuan ($46.28), ensuring visitors get to enjoy a richer and higher-quality ice and snow experience at the same price.尽管规模、活动及服务均得到升级，成人票价仍维持328元（约合46.28美元）不变，确保游客以同等价格享受更丰富、更高品质的冰雪体验。ice-storage methods储冰工艺multilayer insulation多层保温技术watchtowers烽火台

Japan's tourism sector is bracing for a deepening chill this winter in the wake of erroneous remarks by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi.日本首相高市早苗的失言事件后，日本旅游业正为今年冬季持续降温的局面做准备。As its travel market cools, rival destinations across Asia are moving swiftly to cater to Chinese travelers who had previously planned to visit Japan.随着日本旅游市场遇冷，亚洲各地的竞争对手正迅速行动，以吸引那些原本计划赴日旅游的中国游客。"Since last week, inquiries for Malaysia, Singapore and winter favorites such as Phu Quoc in Vietnam and Bali in Indonesia have increased by 20 to 30 percent week-on-week," said Li Mengran, marketing manager of Beijing-based travel agency Utour.北京优途旅行社市场经理李梦然表示：“上周以来，马来西亚、新加坡以及越南富国岛、印度尼西亚巴厘岛等冬季度假胜地的咨询量较前一周增长了20%至30%。”"These destinations benefit from visa-free policies, diverse tourism resources, abundant flights and flexible tour products suited for families and smaller groups."这些目的地因免签政策、丰富的旅游资源、充足的航班以及适合家庭和小团体游客的灵活旅游产品而备受青睐。Thailand moved quickly to capitalize on the shifting sentiment.泰国借势把握市场情绪变化带来的机遇。On Wednesday, the Beijing office of the Tourism Authority of Thailand emphasized that Thailand "always welcomes visitors from around the world, especially Chinese friends", announcing Chinese-specific New Year promotions and safety standards.周三，泰国旅游局北京办事处强调，泰国“始终欢迎世界各地的游客，特别是中国朋友”，并宣布推出针对中国游客的新春促销活动及安全标准。Beyond Southeast Asia, Russia is also seeking to attract Chinese tourists.除东南亚地区外，俄罗斯也在积极吸引中国游客。Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Nov 18 that visa-free travel for Chinese citizens would be introduced "in the very near future", according to Russian media reports.据俄罗斯媒体报道，俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京11月18日表示，俄方将在“不久的将来”对中国公民实施免签政策。Data from Qunar, a Beijing-based online travel agency, show that the ranking of top outbound destinations has shifted significantly.北京在线旅游平台去哪儿网的数据显示，热门出境旅游目的地的排名已发生显著变化。On Nov 15 and 16, South Korea overtook Japan as the most-booked outbound market, with Seoul becoming the most searched international destination by Nov 17. The surge has been helped by South Korea's visa-free trial program for Chinese tour groups of three or more, effective from Sept 29 through June 30 next year.11月15日至16日，韩国超越日本成为预订量最高的出境旅游市场，首尔更在11月17日跃居最受搜索的国际目的地。此轮增长得益于韩国自9月29日起实施的免签试点政策——针对三人及以上中国旅行团的免签政策将持续至明年6月30日。"From now through the end of 2025, off-peak outbound demand will remain strong," said Yang Han, a researcher at Qunar. "Japan's change has pushed travelers toward more diversified destinations, South Korea now leads, followed by China's Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions nearby, and costeffective Southeast Asian nations such as Thailand, Vietnam and Malaysia."去哪儿网研究员杨涵表示：“从现在到2025年底，淡季出境游需求将持续强劲。日本市场的变化促使游客转向更多元化的目的地，韩国目前位居首位，其次是邻近的中国香港、澳门特别行政区，以及泰国、越南、马来西亚等性价比高的东南亚国家。”Domestic destinations are absorbing some redirected traffic as well. Flight bookings to southern provinces from Nov 19 to Dec 31 had exceeded 4.72 million as of Nov 18, up about 13 percent year-on-year, according to data from aviation service app Umetrip.国内目的地也吸纳了部分转移的客流。据航空服务应用程序航旅纵横数据显示，截至11月18日，11月19日至12月31日期间飞往南方省份的航班预订量已突破472万次，同比增长约13%。The ongoing downturn in Chinese outbound travel to Japan accelerated after multiple Chinese ministries issued travel alerts, reminding Chinese citizens to avoid traveling to Japan in the near term. Major Chinese airlines have subsequently announced free refunds or rescheduling for Japan routes booked before Dec 31. According to a report by China Central Television on Thursday, more than 540,000 flight tickets to Japan have been canceled since Nov 15.中国赴日出境游持续低迷，在多个中国政府部门发布旅行提示、提醒公民近期避免赴日后，这一趋势进一步加速。中国主要航空公司随后宣布，对12月31日前预订的日本航线提供免费退票或改签服务。据中央电视台周四报道，自11月15日以来，已有超过54万张赴日机票被取消。Wu Liyun, professor of the China Academy of Culture and Tourism at Beijing International Studies University, said travelers now increasingly prioritize safety, emotional comfort and geopolitical stability.北京外国语大学中国文化旅游研究院教授吴丽云指出，如今旅客越来越重视安全保障、情感舒适度和地缘政治稳定性。"People want to feel relaxed and happy when traveling. Government attitudes and how locals treat foreign visitors directly shape emotional experience," she said. When safety or political stability weakens, she added, travelers naturally turn elsewhere. "Southeast Asia, Central Asia and many regional destinations offer strong alternatives. Safety and certainty have become crucial, long-term considerations."吴丽云表示：“人们旅行时渴望放松身心、享受快乐。政府态度和当地居民对待外国游客的方式，直接影响着游客的情感体验。”她补充道，当安全或政治稳定性下降时，游客自然会另寻他处。“东南亚、中亚及众多地区性目的地提供了强有力的替代选择。安全与确定性已成为至关重要的长期考量因素”。China is Japan's largest and highest-spending inbound visitor source. In 2024, Chinese mainland tourists accounted for 21.3 percent of all foreign tourist expenditure, according to the Japan National Tourism Organization. Combined visitors from the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong made up 30 percent of Japan's total inbound arrivals between January and September this year.中国是日本最大的入境游客来源地，且消费水平最高。日本国家旅游局数据显示，2024年中国大陆游客支出占日本外国游客总支出的21.3%。今年1月至9月，中国大陆与香港游客合计占日本入境游客总量的30%。The impact is already being felt in Japan's northernmost prefecture.

President Xi Jinping has underlined the need for Beijing and Washington to maintain the momentum of the steady development of bilateral relations to strive for more positive progress, emphasizing that it is important for China and the United States to jointly safeguard the outcomes of the victory in World War II.Xi made the remarks during a telephone conversation with United States President Donald Trump on Monday evening.Xi talked about his meeting with Trump in Busan, Republic of Korea, last month as well as the important consensuses they reached during that meeting, saying that they have recalibrated the course of the giant ship of China-US relations and provided more momentum for it to sail forward steadily, sending a positive signal to the world.He said that since the Busan meeting, China-US relations have generally maintained a steady and positive trajectory, which has been welcomed by both countries as well as the international community.What has happened demonstrates yet again that the description of China-US cooperation benefiting both sides and confrontation hurting both sides reflects a common sense that has been repeatedly proved by experience, and the vision of China and the US helping each other succeed and prosper together is a tangible prospect within reach, Xi said.He called for both countries to maintain this momentum, adhere to the correct direction, and uphold the attitude of equality, respect and mutual benefit.Both sides should lengthen the list of cooperation and shorten the list of problems, striving for more positive progress and creating new spaces for cooperation for China-US relations in order to benefit the people of both countries and the world, he added.Xi reiterated China's principled stance on the Taiwan question, emphasizing that Taiwan's return to China is an important part of the postwar international order.China and the US once stood together against fascism and militarism, and given what is going on, it is more important for them to jointly safeguard the results of the victory in World War II, he said.Trump said that President Xi is a great leader. He noted that he enjoyed the meeting with Xi in Busan and he fully agreed with Xi on his comments about bilateral relations.He said that both sides are comprehensively implementing the important consensuses they reached at the Busan meeting.The US acknowledges the significant role China played in the victory in World War II and understands the importance of the Taiwan question to China, Trump said.The two leaders also talked about the Ukraine crisis. Xi emphasized that China supports all efforts that are conducive to peace, and hopes that all parties will continue to narrow their differences to reach a fair, lasting and binding peace agreement to resolve the crisis at its root.momentumn./məˈmen.t̬əm/势头recalibratev./ˌriːˈkæl.ə.breɪt/重新校准

China's influenza activity has rapidly increased in recent weeks but remains within the expected winter range, with no novel or unknown variants being detected, health authorities said recently.卫生部门近日表示，中国流感活动水平近几周迅速上升，但仍处于冬季预期范围内，未检测到新型或未知变异株。Latest data from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention shows that flu levels are increasing in both northern and southern regions. This surge led to 955 reported infection clusters in the week beginning Nov 10.中国疾病预防控制中心最新数据显示，流感疫情在南北地区均呈上升趋势。11月10日当周，全国共报告955起流感聚集性病例。The H3N2 subtype of influenza A is currently dominant, accounting for over 99 percent of samples from flu-like cases, with the remainder being the H1N1 subtype of influenza A and the influenza B strain.甲型流感H3N2亚型目前占主导地位，占流感样病例样本的99%以上，其余为甲型流感H1N1亚型和乙型流感病毒株。"The nation has entered a period of rapidly increasing flu cases, with the majority of regions seeing a medium to high level of virus circulation," said Peng Zhibin, a researcher at the China CDC, at a news conference on Friday.中国疾控中心研究员彭质斌周五在新闻发布会上表示："全国流感病例正进入快速增长期，多数地区病毒传播处于中度至高度水平。"Peng also noted a significant rise in outbreaks at schools and nurseries, with the flu positivity rate among children and adolescents aged 5 to 14 markedly higher than in other age groups.彭质斌还指出，学校和托儿所的疫情爆发显著增加，5至14岁儿童和青少年的流感阳性率明显高于其他年龄段。Last winter's flu season was primarily driven by the H1N1 strain, while the current dominant strain is the H3N2 strain.去年冬季的流感季节主要由H1N1病毒株驱动，而当前占主导地位的病毒株则是H3N2病毒株。A specific H3N2 subclade, known as K, has also driven up infections in parts of the northern hemisphere, including the United Kingdom, Canada and Japan, fueling concerns that this signals a faster evolving or more severe virus.一种名为K的特定H3N2亚系病毒也在北半球部分地区（包括英国、加拿大和日本）引发感染激增，这引发了人们对该病毒可能具有更快的进化速度或更强的致病性的担忧。In response, Peng said that the flu virus is prone to minor mutations. The current flu activity still remains at the normal, seasonal epidemic level and does not indicate that the virus is becoming increasingly fierce.对此，彭质斌回应表示流感病毒容易发生轻微变异。当前流感活动仍处于正常季节性流行水平，并不表明病毒正在变得越来越凶猛。"So far, all detected cases are common and known pathogens, with no unknown or newly emerging pathogens," she said.彭质斌表示：“迄今为止，所有检测到的病例均由常见且已知的病原体引起，未发现未知或新出现的病原体。”Wang Dayan, director of the Chinese National Influenza Center, said during an earlier news conference that the composition of each year's flu vaccine is updated to best match the strains expected to circulate, including this year's dose.中国国家流感中心主任王大燕在早前举行的新闻发布会上表示，每年流感疫苗的成分都会根据预计流行的毒株进行更新调整，今年的疫苗也不例外。"The matching level for the H3N2 virus has improved compared to previous years, while the matches for H1N1 and influenza B are even higher," she said. "Over 95 percent of circulating strains are antigenically similar to the vaccine strains."王大燕表示：“与往年相比，H3N2病毒的匹配水平有所提升，而H1N1和B型流感的匹配度更高，超过95%的流行毒株与疫苗毒株具有抗原相似性。”Experts said that the optimized period to get vaccinated is before the start of the flu season, so as to reduce the possibility of severe symptoms and prevent infection clusters.专家表示，接种疫苗的最佳时机是在流感季节开始之前，这样既能降低出现严重症状的可能性，又能防止感染聚集性病例的发生。However, Peng said that even individuals who have already been infected can benefit from the shot, as the trivalent vaccine contains all three circulating strains and can provide protection against those they have not contracted.不过彭质斌强调，即使已经感染过的人群也能从接种中获益，因为三价疫苗包含所有三种流行毒株，能够为未曾感染过的毒株提供保护。Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention中国疾控中心influenza A甲型流感trivalent vaccine三价疫苗

The United States and Ukraine said they had created an "updated and refinedpeace framework" to end the conflict with Russia that apparently modified an earlier plan drafted by the US administration.美国和乌克兰表示，双方已建立一个“更新完善后的和平框架”以结束与俄罗斯的冲突，该框架显然修改了美国政府此前起草的计划。In a joint statement released after talks in Geneva between the US and Ukrainian delegations, the two sides said their discussion was "highly productive" and said they would continue talks in the coming days. They did not provide specifics about a host of issues that must be resolved, including the security guarantee for Kyiv.在日内瓦举行的美乌代表团会谈后发表的联合声明中，双方称此次讨论“富有成效”，并表示将在未来几天继续磋商。关于包括基辅安全保障在内的一系列亟待解决的问题，双方均未透露具体细节。In a separate statement, the White House said the new version included strengthened security guarantees, and that the Ukrainian delegation had said it "reflects their national interests". Ukrainian officials did not provide a separate statement of their own and were not immediately available for comment.白宫在另一份声明中表示，新版协议包含了更强有力的安全保障条款，乌克兰代表团称该协议“符合其国家利益”。乌克兰官员未发表单独声明，也未立即回应置评请求。US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who led the talks, told reporters in Geneva that work remained to be done on questions, including the role of NATO, but that his team had narrowed down unresolved issues in a 28-point peace plan for Ukraine championed by US President Donald Trump.美国国务卿马尔科·卢比奥在日内瓦向记者表示，尽管包括北约角色在内的问题仍需进一步磋商，但其团队已在特朗普总统倡导的28点乌克兰和平计划中缩小了未决议题的范围。The head of the Ukrainian delegation, presidential chief of staff Andriy Yermak, said: "We have made very good progress and are moving forward to a just and lasting peace."乌克兰代表团团长、总统办公厅主任安德烈·叶尔马克表示：“我们取得了非常好的进展，正朝着公正而持久的和平迈进。”Earlier, Trump said Ukraine had not been grateful for US efforts over the conflict, prompting Ukrainian officials to stress their gratitude to the US president for his support.此前，特朗普表示乌克兰对美国在冲突中的努力缺乏感激之情，该言论引发乌克兰官员强调他们对美国总统支持的感激之情。Trump has said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has until Thursday to approve the plan, which calls on Ukraine tocede territory, accept limits on its military and renounce ambitions to join NATO.特朗普表示，乌克兰总统泽连斯基必须在周四之前批准该计划，该计划要求乌克兰割让领土、接受军事限制并放弃加入北约的野心。Zelensky cheered the US-led efforts on security while stressing that "the crux of the entire diplomatic situation is that it was Russia, and only Russia, that started this war".泽连斯基对美国主导的安全保障努力表示欢迎，同时强调“整个外交局势的关键在于俄罗斯，且只有俄罗斯挑起了这场战争”。"Ukraine is grateful to the United States, to every American heart, and personally to President Trump," Zelensky wrote in a post on Telegram, adding, "We thank everyone in Europe."泽连斯基在电报信使上发文写道：“乌克兰感谢美国、感谢每一位美国人的心意，并特别感谢特朗普总统。”他还补充道：“我们感谢欧洲的每一个人。”可能的行程Possible tripRubio said the US still needed time to address thepending issues. He hoped a deal could be reached by Thursday but suggested it could also take longer.马尔科·卢比奥表示，美国仍需时间解决悬而未决的问题。他希望能在周四前达成协议，但也暗示谈判可能需要更长时间。US and Ukrainian officials were discussing the possibility of Zelensky traveling to the US, maybe as early as this week, to discuss the US peace plan with Trump, two sources familiar with the matter said on Sunday.两名知情人士周日透露，美国和乌克兰官员正在讨论泽连斯基访问美国的可能性，最早可能于本周成行，届时他将与特朗普讨论美国的和平计划。The main idea is that they would discuss the most sensitive issues in the peace plan, such as the matter of territory, one of the sources said. There is no confirmed date for now, the source added.一位消息人士称，主要讨论内容将是和平计划中最敏感的问题，例如领土问题。该消息人士补充道，目前尚未确定具体日期。Rubio stressed that any final agreement would "have to be agreed upon by the presidents, and there are a couple of issues that we need to continue to work on" before trying tobring on board the Kremlin, which welcomed the original proposal.卢比奥强调，任何最终协议都“必须由两国总统达成共识，且有若干问题需要继续磋”，方能争取克里姆林宫的支持。克里姆林宫此前对原始提案表示赞成。The Kremlin said on Monday that it had not received any official information about the outcome of the Ukraine peace talks.克里姆林宫周一表示，尚未收到关于乌克兰和平谈判结果的任何官方信息。Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that the Kremlin would not be discussing details of any draft agreement via the media. He also said there were no plans yet for a meeting this week between Russian and US negotiators.克里姆林宫发言人德米特里·谢尔盖耶维奇·佩斯科夫表示，克里姆林宫不会通过媒体讨论任何协议草案的细节。他还表示，俄美谈判代表本周暂无会晤计划。Since the US plan was announced, there has been confusion about who was involved in drawing it up. European allies said they had not been consulted.自美国计划公布以来，关于参与制定该计划的人员一直存在混淆。欧洲盟国表示他们并未被征询意见。EU countries were expected to discuss the Ukraine situation on the sidelines of a meeting with African leaders in Angola on Monday.欧盟各国预计将在周一于安哥拉举行的非洲领导人会议期间，就乌克兰局势进行讨论。"Ukraine must have the freedom and sovereign right to choose its own destiny. They have chosen a European destiny,"EU chief Ursula von der Leyen said in a statement, stressing that the "centrality" of the European Union's role must be "fully reflected" in any peace plan.欧盟主席乌尔苏拉·冯德莱恩在声明中表示：“乌克兰必须拥有选择自身命运的自由和主权权利。他们选择了欧洲的命运。”她强调，任何和平计划都必须“充分体现”欧盟作用的“核心地位”。On Monday, German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul said that talks in Geneva on amending the plan had produced a "decisive success" for Europeans.周一，德国外交

It is the first time that the group of economies, comprising 19 countries as well as the European Union and the African Union, held its summit on African soil.作为本届二十国集团轮值主席国，南非总统西里尔·拉马福萨主持了峰会。这也是包括19个国家以及欧盟和非盟在内的二十国集团第一次在非洲大陆举行峰会。Themed "Solidarity, Equality and Sustainability", this year's summit was divided into three sessions, focusing on inclusive and sustainable economic growth, building a resilient world, and fostering a fair and just future for all.本届峰会以“团结、平等与可持续”为主题，围绕包容和可持续经济增长、建设韧性世界、打造公平正义的共同未来等议题设置了三场会议。Addressing the first session, Li pointed out that the global economy is once again confronted with major challenges, marked by a rise in unilateralism and protectionism, along with escalating trade restrictions and confrontations.在首场会议上，李强指出，全球经济再次面临重大挑战，单边主义和保护主义抬头，贸易限制和摩擦不断加剧。Divergent interests among parties and weaknesses in global cooperation mechanisms have become prominent factors hindering international solidarity, he said.他表示，利益分歧和全球合作机制的薄弱已成为阻碍国际社会团结的重要因素。Li urged the G20 to face the problems squarely, explore solutions and help bring all parties back on the track of solidarity and cooperation.李强敦促二十国集团直面问题、探寻解决方案，并推动各方重回团结合作的正确轨道。Concerted efforts should be made to properly handle disputes and frictions through consultations on the basis of equality when facing differences and contradictions, he said, underlining the need to seek common ground while reserving differences, actively pursue the most extensive common interests, and properly address each other's reasonable concerns.他强调，在面对分歧和矛盾时，应坚持在平等基础上通过协商妥善处理争端和摩擦，坚持求同存异，积极寻求最大公约数，妥善回应彼此合理关切。Emphasizing the importance of upholding multilateralism, Li called for accelerating the reform of institutions, including the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the World Trade Organization.李强强调要维护多边主义，推动加快包括世界银行、国际货币基金组织和世界贸易组织在内的机构改革。He also called for efforts to enhance the voice of developing countries and build a fairer and more open international economic and trade order.他呼吁进一步提升发展中国家的代表性和话语权，构建更加公平开放的国际经贸秩序。China has released an action plan for implementing the G20 Initiative on Supporting Industrialization in Africa and Least Developed Countries, Li said, noting that China supports the reduction of debts in developing countries and has jointly launched with South Africa a cooperative initiative to support Africa's modernization.李强表示，中国已发布《支持非洲和最不发达国家工业化的二十国集团倡议行动计划》，支持发展中国家减轻债务负担，并与南非共同启动了支持非洲现代化的合作倡议。China will also establish the Institute of Global Development to promote common development among all countries, he added.他还宣布，中国将成立全球发展研究院，推动各国实现共同发展。Common development共同发展Leaders attending the first session of the summit said that over the past two decades, the G20 has become an important platform for the international community to meet challenges, share opportunities and seek common development.与会领导人表示，过去20年来，二十国集团已成为国际社会应对挑战、共享机遇、寻求共同发展的重要平台。Noting that today's world is facing multiple challenges and mounting instability and uncertainty, they called on G20 members, which are representatives of the world's major economies and emerging markets, to earnestly shoulder their responsibilities, strengthen solidarity and cooperation, safeguard multilateralism, and join forces to meet challenges.他们指出，当今世界面临多重挑战、不稳定性和不确定性上升，呼吁作为全球主要经济体和新兴市场代表的二十国集团成员切实承担责任，加强团结合作，坚持多边主义，携手应对挑战。The leaders also urged G20 members to safeguard the multilateral trading system with the WTO at its core, advance the reform of the global economic governance system, and bridge the development gap, in order to promote a strong, balanced, inclusive and sustainable growth.领导人们还呼吁二十国集团维护以世贸组织为核心的多边贸易体系，推动全球经济治理体系改革，弥合发展差距，促进强劲、平衡、包容和可持续的增长。Green cooperation绿色合作In his speech at the second session, Li called for strengthening cooperation in ecological and environmental protection, advancing collaboration in green energy and enhancing cooperation on food security.在第二场会议上，李强呼吁加强生态环境保护合作，推动绿色能源合作，并强化粮食安全领域协作。New technologies新技术与新机遇Addressing the third session, the premier emphasized that a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation is accelerating, bringing unprecedented development opportunities to the world, while at the same time, creating new inequalities and development gaps.在第三场会议上，李强强调，新一轮科技革命和产业变革正在加速推进，给世界带来前所未有的发展机遇，同时也造成新的不平等和发展差距。Li called for promoting the widespread application and effective governance of artificial intelligence, fostering mutuall

China aims to enhance the protection of personal information, ensuring the legal rights of individuals and promoting the healthy development of the platform economy, according to new draft regulations released on Saturday.中国旨在加强个人信息保护，保障个人合法权利，并促进平台经济的健康发展。根据周六发布的新草案法规显示，这一目标将得到法律支持。The draft "regulations on personal information protection for large online platforms" were released by the Cyberspace Administration of China and the Ministry of Public Security to solicit public comments.这一名为《大型网络平台个人信息保护规定（草案）》的法规由中国国家网信办和公安部联合发布，以征求公众意见。According to the draft regulations, personal information collected and generated in China should be stored domestically. If there is a need to transfer the information abroad, platforms should comply with national data export security regulations.草案规定，在中国收集或生成的个人信息应当在境内存储。如需向境外传输数据，平台必须遵守国家有关数据出境安全的规定。Platforms are required to strengthen technical and managerial measures to prevent and address risks associated with illegal overseas data transfers.平台需加强技术和管理措施，以防范和应对非法境外数据传输相关的风险。The draft also stipulates that personal information must be stored in data centers that are located in China and meet national security standards.草案还规定，个人信息必须存储在境内符合国家安全标准的数据中心。Moreover, online platform service providers must offer convenient methods and channels for individuals to access, correct, supplement, and delete their personal information, as well as to delete their accounts.此外，网络平台服务提供者必须为个人提供便捷的方式和渠道，以查阅、更正、补充和删除个人信息，同时支持账户注销。When an individual requests the transfer of their personal information to a designated personal information processor, the service provider should complete the transfer within 30 working days of receiving the request, the draft said.草案指出，当个人要求将其个人信息转移至指定的个人信息处理者时，服务提供者应在收到请求后的30个工作日内完成信息转移。In cases where platforms show serious deficiencies in personal information protection, such as repeated violations or significant data breaches affecting large numbers of users, authorities may mandate compliance audits and risk assessments by third-party professional organizations.如果平台在个人信息保护方面存在严重不足，例如屡次违规或发生影响大量用户的重大数据泄露事件，监管部门可要求第三方专业机构进行合规审计和风险评估。Infractions include a personal information security incident resulting in the leakage, alteration, loss, or destruction of the personal information of over 1 million individuals or sensitive personal information of over 100,000 individuals, the draft said.草案指出，违规行为包括导致超过100万人个人信息泄露、篡改、丢失或毁损，或涉及超过10万人的敏感个人信息泄露的安全事件。Platforms that are found incapable of ensuring data security may be required to store data in third-party data centers that comply with regulations, it added.草案补充称，对于无法保障数据安全的平台，可能要求其在符合规定的第三方数据中心存储数据。The draft encourages the use of national network identity authentication services, data labeling technologies, and personal information protection certifications to enhance data protection levels.草案鼓励使用国家网络身份认证服务、数据标识技术及个人信息保护认证，以提升数据保护水平。The public is invited to submit feedback through various channels, and complaints about violations can be reported to authorities, who are required to respond within 15 working days.公众可通过多种渠道提交意见反馈，对于违规投诉可向监管部门举报，相关部门需在15个工作日内作出回应。The CAC and Ministry of Public Security emphasize the importance of confidentiality for all parties involved, including government departments and third-party organizations, regarding personal privacy, business secrets, and other sensitive information encountered during their duties.网信办和公安部强调，所有相关方（包括政府部门和第三方机构）在履职过程中涉及的个人隐私、商业机密及其他敏感信息必须保密。Public consultation on the draft regulations is open until Dec 22, according to the statement CAC released on its official WeChat account.根据网信办官方微信公众号发布的公告，公众对草案法规的意见征求活动将持续至12月22日。platform economy平台经济draft regulations法规草案data export security regulations数据出境安全规定personal information protection certifications个人信息保护认证

Beijing urged Tokyo on Friday to take practical steps to honor its commitments to China if it wants to develop a strategic, mutually beneficial relationship with the country.中方于周五敦促日方，如果希望推进中日战略互惠关系的发展，就必须以实际行动履行对华承诺。Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning made the remarks after Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi affirmed in an interview the unchanged stance of advancing the strategic relations between China and Japan of mutual benefit.此前，日本首相高市早苗在采访中声称，将继续推动中日战略互惠关系。对此，中国外交部发言人毛宁作出上述回应。“If Japan truly hopes to develop the strategic relationship of mutual benefit with China and make the relationship a constructive and stable one fit for the new era, Japan needs to uphold the spirit of the four political documents between the two countries and its political commitments, retract the erroneous remarks at once and take practical steps to honor its commitments to China,” Mao said.毛宁表示：“如果日本真正希望推动中日战略互惠关系，使其成为契合新时代的建设性、稳定性关系，就必须恪守两国四个政治文件的精神及自身政治承诺，立即撤回错误言论，并以实际行动履行对华承诺。”The blatant and erroneous remarks on Taiwan made by the Japanese prime minister earlier this month implied the possibility of Japan intervening in the Taiwan Strait by force, which triggered outrage and condemnation from the Chinese people, Mao said at a daily news conference in Beijing. China firmly opposes such moves, she said.她指出，日本首相本月早些时候就台湾问题发表的明显错误言论暗示日本可能以武力干预台湾海峡局势，引发中国民众强烈愤慨与谴责。中方对此表示坚决反对。Mao also slammed Japan’s recent moves of breaking free from its exclusively defense-oriented principle and speeding up rearmament, warning that going back to the path of militarism will only “end in failure”.毛宁同时批评日本近来不断突破“专守防卫”原则、加速推动军事扩张，警告日本重回军国主义道路只会“以失败告终”。It was reported that Japan has exported domestically produced Patriot surface-to-air missile interceptors to the United States for the first time under eased restrictions on arms exports.报道称，在放宽武器出口限制后，日本首次向美国出口国产“爱国者”防空导弹拦截系统。There are also reports saying that Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party has begun discussions on revising the three non-nuclear principles of not possessing, not producing and not permitting the introduction of nuclear weapons, as well as increasing defense spending.另有报道称，日本自民党开始讨论修改“不拥有、不制造、不引进”核武器的三原则，并计划进一步提高防卫开支。In recent years, Japan has been easing the restrictions and seeking military buildup, Mao noted.毛宁指出，近年来日本不断放宽限制，谋求军事扩张。While claiming it hopes to build a world free of nuclear weapons, Japan is actually strengthening cooperation on extended deterrence and even seeking to revise its three non-nuclear principles to open the door for enabling nuclear sharing arrangements.她批评日本一边宣称希望构建无核武世界，一边却加强所谓“延伸威慑”合作，甚至试图修改三原则，为“核共享”打开大门。“What exactly is Japan seeking to achieve?” Mao asked. “If Japan seeks to go back to the path of militarism, violate its commitment to peaceful development and disrupt postwar international order, the Chinese people as well as the international community will not allow it,” she said.毛宁质问：“日本究竟想要做什么？”她强调：“如果日本企图重走军国主义道路，违背和平发展承诺，破坏战后国际秩序，中国人民和国际社会都不会允许。”honor one’s commitments履行承诺strategic relationship of mutual benefit战略互惠关系surface-to-air missile interceptor地对空导弹拦截器military buildup军事扩张

In her classic studyThe Chrysanthemum and the Sword, US anthropologist Ruth Benedict argued that Japan's social psychology was shaped by a system of "obligation" and "shame".美国人类学家露丝·本尼迪克特在其经典研究《菊与刀》中指出，日本的社会心理结构是由“义务”和“羞耻”两种机制所塑造的。From Benedict's perspective, the obligation arises from duties transmitted through hierarchy and daily social interactions, while shame derives from the need to maintain personal honor and avoid public disgrace.在本尼迪克特看来，“义务”源自等级结构与日常互动中传递的责任，而“羞耻”则来自维持个人荣誉、避免公开耻辱的需要。Yet the "obligations" that seem to animate Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, which stem from a political lineage that has long romanticized Japan's militaristic past, are glorified instead of being a source of shame. By publicly signaling a readiness to engage in armed intervention over the Taiwan Strait situation — under the pretext of a fabricated "external threat" — Takaichi has actually voiced a military threat against China with her provocative and dangerous remarks on Taiwan during recent Diet deliberations.高市早苗在近期国会审议中，借编造的“外部威胁”为借口，公开表态准备对台海局势进行武力干预；她在台湾问题上的挑衅性、危险言论，实际上构成了对中国的军事威胁。Japan's modern political trajectory since the Meiji Restoration has often swung between the two poles of the chrysanthemum and the sword proposed by Benedict: The former representing restraint and civility, the latter aggression and expansionism as embodied by Takaichi's erroneous remarks on the Taiwan question.自明治维新以来，日本的现代政治轨迹常在本尼迪克特提出的“菊”与“刀”两极间摇摆：前者象征克制与文明，后者则象征侵略与扩张主义——高市在台湾问题上的错误言论正体现了“刀”的冲动。Her remarks mark a regression toward the impulses that plunged Japan and the wider region into the catastrophe of war. They are not simply rhetorical overreach. They constitute a calculated political gamble that uses "national security" and "regional stability" as leverage for Japan's "normalization" with the removal of the shackles on militarization. Shackles that to some in Japan are a source of shame, when in actual fact they are an obligation imposed on it by its unbridled aggression.她的表态意味着日本重新倒向曾令本国及更广泛地区陷入战争灾难的危险冲动。这不仅仅是言辞越界，而是一场经过算计的政治豪赌：以“国家安全”和“地区稳定”为杠杆，为日本解除军事化的束缚、推进所谓“正常化”铺路。在日本某些人眼中，这些限制似乎是耻辱，但事实上，它们是日本因昔日肆意侵略而必须承担的义务。Takaichi's attempt to crack open the Pandora's box of remilitarization not only violates the spirit of Japan's "pacifist" Constitution; it also interferes in China's internal affairs and disrupts the postwar international order that has underpinned peace in East Asia for decades.高市试图撬开再军事化的“潘多拉盒子”，既违背日本“和平宪法”的精神，又干涉中国内政，并破坏支撑东亚数十年和平的战后国际秩序。Takaichi's ascent to political prominence is inseparable from the rise of hard-line right-wing forces within Japan. Lacking substantive diplomatic experience, she has leaned heavily on ideological signaling to cement her identity as a far-right leader, treating such positioning as both a badge of honor and a shortcut to power.高市的政治崛起与日本国内强硬右翼势力的抬头密不可分。由于缺乏实质性的外交经验，她高度依赖意识形态姿态来巩固自己的极右翼领导者形象，将这种定位视为荣誉徽章与通往权力的捷径。Despite Japan's 1.8 percent economic contraction year-on-year in the third quarter, Takaichi is ignoring the country's economic woes.尽管日本第三季度经济同比萎缩1.8%，高市却无视国内日益加重的经济困境。Due to the pernicious influence of the right-wing politicians, public evaluation of the political leadership of the country increasingly appears less concerned with improving livelihoods and more attracted to the illusion of restoring a mythologized past.在右翼政客的恶劣影响下，日本公众对政治领导层的评价逐渐从关注民生改善转向迷恋对神化过去的虚妄复兴。Born in 1961, Takaichi grew up during Japan's economic rise. In the following decades, she developed an expansionist mentality similar to the generation of Japanese politicians belonging to Japan's first rise from the late 19th century to the early 20th century, who turned the country into a war machine. Under the leadership of Takaichi, Japan seems to stand at a similar crossroads now. The danger is that in driving this trend, Takaichi and her supporters are doing so despite being fully aware of its upshots. Yet history offers clear evidence of where valorizing aggression leads.出生于1961年的高市早苗成长于日本经济高速增长时期。此后数十年，她逐渐形成了类似日本第一次崛起时期（19世纪末至20世纪初）那代政治人物的扩张思维——正是那代人将日本变成了战争机器。在高市的领导下，日本如今似乎站在类似的十字路口。危险在于，高市及其支持者明知后果，却仍推动这种趋势；而历史已清楚证明，美化侵略最终会走向何处。Rather than repudiating it, Takaichi and other politicians uphold "the sword" rather than "the chrysanthemum" out of a misguided sense of loyalty to the past. With this mindset they try to keep the Japanese public in ignorance of the country's past wrongs by distorting and burying the uncomfortable truths of history. This fog of misinformation that cloaks reckless ambitions is being thickened with the rhetoric of upholding "regional peace" and "stability" against a "China threat".高市和一些政客非但未予否定，反而出于对过去的错误忠诚，选择拥抱“刀”而非“菊”。在这种思维下，他们试图通过歪曲与掩埋让日本公众不愿直面的历史真相，从而让民众对国家过去的罪错保持无知。这层遮掩鲁莽野心的信息迷雾，又被以“维护地区和平”“应对中国威胁”的言辞进一步加厚。Japan's past aggression originated from similar claims of "external threats" or acting on an expressed "duty" to maintain order in Asia. The result was not prosperity but suffering and atrocities at the unsheathing of "the sword". Its "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity

China is likely to extend the consumer goods trade-in program into 2026, as analysts said there is still substantial, unmet demand among Chinese households to upgrade home appliances and digital devices, as well as ample fiscal headroom to underpin the consumption campaign.分析人士表示，由于中国家庭对家电和数码设备升级的需求仍有较大缺口，且有充足的财政空间支持这项消费刺激举措，中国可能会将消费品以旧换新政策延续至2026年。The initiative, proven effective in driving big-ticket item spending and delivering tangible benefits to households, is expected to enable China to begin the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-30) period on a sound footing, they added.他们补充称，该举措已被证实能有效拉动大额商品消费，并为家庭带来切实利益，有望助力中国在“十五”规划（2026-2030年）开局之年奠定良好基础。China's trade-in program is a government-backed initiative to boost domestic consumption by providing subsidies for consumers who trade in outdated items like white goods, automobiles and electronics for new, more efficient models.中国的以旧换新政策是一项政府支持的举措，通过为消费者提供补贴，鼓励其将家电、汽车和电子产品等老旧物品置换为新型、高效的产品，从而提振国内消费。Although an official announcement has not yet been made, multiple policy signals and clear market trends — particularly the shift toward smart and green products — suggest an extension is possible.尽管官方尚未发布正式通知，但多项政策信号和明确的市场趋势——尤其是向智能、绿色产品的转型——表明该政策有望延续。This likelihood was reinforced by the State Council, the country's Cabinet, which set explicit targets for aging vehicles and outdated appliance recycling volume through 2027 in a March 2024 document that launched the current trade-in round.2024年3月，国务院（中国内阁）发布文件启动本轮以旧换新工作，并明确设定了截至2027年的老旧车辆和废旧家电回收量目标，这进一步强化了政策延续的可能性。In addition, the 2024 Government Work Report pledged to issue ultra-long special treasury bonds "over each of the next several years". These bonds have served as the funding mechanism of the trade-in initiative.此外，2024年《政府工作报告》承诺“在今后几年每年”发行超长期特别国债。这些债券已成为以旧换新举措的资金保障机制。These policy statements, coupled with Beijing's emphasis on boosting household consumption in its recommendations for the next five-year blueprint released last month, indicate that policymakers are likely to extend the trade-in program into 2026, according to market watchers.市场观察人士指出，这些政策表述，加之北京上月发布的下一个五年规划建议中对扩大居民消费的重视，表明政策制定者可能会将以旧换新政策延续至2026年。Wang Wei, former director of the Institute of Market Economy at the Development Research Center of the State Council, told China Daily in an exclusive interview that while stimulating consumption has been top economic priority this year, it will also remain crucial in 2026 — the inaugural year of the 15th Five-Year Plan.国务院发展研究中心市场经济研究所前所长王微在接受《中国日报》独家采访时表示，尽管刺激消费是今年的首要经济任务，但在2026年——“十五”规划的开局之年，这一任务仍将至关重要。Maintaining a pro-consumption macroeconomic orientation is essential, which requires a further scaling-up of targeted fiscal spending in this regard, Wang said, adding that the mechanism of ultra-long special treasury bonds, deployed for the trade-in program in 2024 and 2025, should be extended into next year.王微称，保持有利于消费的宏观经济导向至关重要，这需要进一步加大相关定向财政支出力度。2024年和2025年用于以旧换新政策的超长期特别国债机制，应延续至明年。Yu Xiangrong, chief China economist at Citi, said that the funding pool for the trade-in program in 2026 is expected to remain at around 300 billion yuan ($41.3 billion), unchanged from the levels seen in 2025.花旗集团首席中国经济学家余向荣表示，2026年以旧换新政策的资金规模预计将维持在3000亿元人民币（约合413亿美元）左右，与2025年持平。Yu said the policy emphasis will shift from sheer scale to smarter allocation by expanding the range of eligible products and extending the program's reach into rural communities.余向荣指出，政策重心将从单纯追求规模转向更合理的资源配置，具体包括扩大补贴覆盖产品范围，并将政策推广至农村地区。A faster-than-expected issuance of national subsidies for consumer goods trade-ins in the first half of the year has tightened availability in recent months, leaving a pool of unmet demand that analysts say will help make the case for extending the program into 2026.今年上半年，消费品以旧换新国家补贴的发放速度超出预期，导致近几个月补贴额度紧张，市场上仍存在一批未得到满足的需求。分析人士认为，这将为政策延续至2026年提供有力支撑。Looking into next year, Xu Dongsheng, vice-chairman of the China Household Electrical Appliances Association, said that policymakers could consider setting differentiated incentive rates based on a product's price bracket and technological profile.展望明年，中国家用电器协会副理事长徐东升表示，政策制定者可考虑根据产品的价格区间和技术特性，设定差异化的补贴比例。Premium products, particularly those with AI integration, higher-efficiency and environmentally friendly features, could receive a higher subsidy proportion. These categories, seen as drivers of future industry trends, align with national priorities for technological advancement and carbon neutrality. Meanwhile subsidies for basic, functionally straightforward products would be scaled back appropriately, Xu said.徐东升称，高端产品，尤其是集成人工智能、能效更高且具备环保特性的产品，可能会获得更高比例的补贴。这些品类被视为未来产业发展趋势的驱动力，与国家技术进步和碳中和的核心目标相契合。同时，针对基础款、功能简单产品的补贴将适当缩减。According to an executive meeting of the State Council on Friday, industrial upgrading must be guided and propelled by consumption upgrading, where high-quality supply better satisfies diverse demand.国务院周五召开的常务会议指出，必须以消费升级引领和推动产业升级，通过高质量供给更好满足多样化需求。It is essential to deploy new technologies and business models, deeply integrate AI to enhan

Speaking at the United Nations General Assembly's plenary meeting on Security Council reform on Tuesday, China's permanent representative to the UN Fu Cong said that Japan is "totally unqualified" to seek a permanent seat on the UN Security Council.在联合国大会周二举行的安理会改革全体会议上，中国常驻联合国代表傅聪指出，日本“完全不具备”谋求联合国安理会常任理事国席位的资格。This is a justified position. Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's provocative remarks on Taiwan in the Diet on Nov 7 were not only gross interference in China's internal affairs, they were also an affront to international justice.这一立场完全正当。日本首相高市早苗11月7日在国会发表的涉台挑衅言论，不仅是对中国内政的粗暴干涉，也是对国际公义的严重冒犯。As Fu correctly pointed out, her remarks were "extremely erroneous and dangerous", as they deny the postwar international order, trample on the basic norms of international relations and represent a blatant departure from Japan's commitment to peaceful development.正如傅聪所指出，高市的言论“极其错误且危险”，因为它否定了二战后国际秩序，践踏国际关系基本准则，并公然背离了日本对和平发展的承诺。Her remarks, which run counter to Japan's commitments enshrined in the four political documents between China and Japan, have done grave damage to bilateral relations and sparked concern both within and outside Japan.她的言论违背了中日四个政治文件中日本所作的承诺，严重损害双边关系，并在日本国内外引发广泛担忧。Should Takaichi continue to challenge the one-China principle as a cornerstone of the postwar order, Stephane Dujarric, spokesman for the UN Secretary-General, has left her no room to plead ignorance. When answering a question concerning Takaichi's recent remarks on Taiwan, Dujarric said that the official position of the UN on Taiwan is based on the relevant General Assembly Resolution 2758. And in addressing a follow-up question for confirmation that the official language in documents is still Taiwan, a province of China, he said "I'm not aware of any change in General Assembly texts", adding that every member state should support and respect the UN Charter.如果高市继续挑战作为战后秩序基石的一个中国原则，联合国秘书长发言人斯特凡纳·迪雅里克的表态已让她无可推诿。在回答有关高市涉台言论的问题时，迪雅里克表示，联合国对台湾问题的官方立场基于联大第2758号决议。面对记者追问联合国文件中仍将台湾表述为“中国的一个省”是否仍然适用，他回应称：“我没有听说联大文本有任何变化。”并强调所有会员国都应支持和尊重《联合国宪章》。As Fu pointed out, given Takaichi's egregious remarks, how can Japan's professed commitment to peaceful development be trusted? How can it be trusted to uphold fairness and justice? How can it be trusted to shoulder the responsibility of maintaining international peace and security?正如傅聪指出，在高市发表如此恶劣言论的情况下，日本所谓“坚持和平发展”如何令人信任？它又如何能被信任去维护公平与正义？如何能承担维护国际和平与安全的责任？On Sunday, citing the growing number of crimes against Chinese citizens in Japan, the Ministry of Education released an overseas study alert, advising Chinese students to plan their studies prudently. On the same day, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism also issued a cautionary travel notice for Chinese tourists.上周日，鉴于在日中国公民遭遇侵害案件增多，中国教育部发布海外留学预警，提醒中国学生谨慎规划赴日留学。同日，文化和旅游部也向中国游客发布赴日旅行风险提示。Needless to say, these warnings are making Chinese people think twice about studying in Japan or visiting the country. Already, tens of thousands of Chinese tourists have reportedly canceled trips to Japan.不言而喻，这些警示正让中国民众重新考虑赴日留学或旅行。据报道，目前已有数以万计的中国游客取消赴日行程。And Japan's self-made troubles do not end there. On Wednesday, Mao Ning, a spokeswoman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, said that under the current circumstances, even if Japanese seafood were exported to China, there would be no market for it. She also stressed that if Japan continues on its erroneous course, China will have no choice but to take severe and resolute countermeasures.日本自造的麻烦还不止这些。周三，中国外交部发言人毛宁表示，在当前情况下，即便日本水产品出口至中国，也不会有市场。她强调，如果日方继续在错误道路上滑行，中方将不得不采取严厉而坚决的反制措施。Japan should bear all the consequences of Takaichi's irresponsible remarks. Her attempts to distort, deny and glorify Japan's history of aggression and colonial rule and the ascendancy of ultrarightist sentiment in Japan have produced an international wave of concern at the possible consequences of militarism raising its ugly head in Japan again.日本应承担高市不负责任言论造成的全部后果。她试图歪曲、否认并美化日本侵略与殖民统治历史，加之日本国内极右势力抬头，引发了国际社会对日本军国主义可能再次抬头的强烈担忧。Japan's history of aggression has left lasting scars on neighboring countries, and its stubborn unwillingness to reflect on its wrongdoings has led to them festering. Takaichi's whitewashing of Japan's historical aggression and her accelerated remilitarization agenda have only served to rub more salt in the wounds.日本的侵略历史给周边国家留下深重伤痕，而其长期拒绝反省的态度让这些伤痕不断恶化。高市对白洗日本侵略历史的行为，以及她推动的加速军事化议程，无异于在伤口上撒盐。Takaichi's rhetoric in the Japanese parliament that the Dokdo islands, or Takeshima islets as the Japanese call them, are Japan's "inherent territory" has sparked anger in the Republic of Korea. The ROK's Foreign Ministry responded quickly by summoning the Japanese ambassador to Seoul to lodge a protest, strongly urging Japan to correct its erroneous stance.高市在日本国会声称独岛（日本称竹岛）是日本“固有领土”的言论，引发韩国强烈不满。韩国外交部迅速召见日本驻韩大使提出严正抗议，强烈敦促日方纠正错误立场。Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova also said that Japanese militarism brought profound disasters to Asia and the world, and caused Japan to

On a wet October afternoon in Beijing, a group of teenage students gathered around a mediation table to discuss a potential court case. Some scrutinized "evidence bags" and debated "property allocation", while others consulted the Civil Code to confirm the validity of "wills".在一个阴雨绵绵的十月午后，北京的几名青少年学生围坐在调解桌旁，讨论一起潜在的法庭案件。有人仔细检查“证据袋”，有人争论“财产分配”，还有人查阅《民法典》来确认“遗嘱”的有效性。This was not an actual trial but an immersive legal workshop where students took on the roles of plaintiffs, defendants and judges to navigate an inheritance dispute.这并非真实审判，而是一场沉浸式法律工作坊，学生们分别扮演原告、被告和法官的角色，共同处理一起遗产纠纷。The session, centered on wills and property division, was part of an innovative initiative by Haidian District People's Court to make the law more relatable and accessible to young people.本次以遗嘱与财产分割为主题的讲座，是海淀区人民法院推出的一项创新举措，旨在让法律更贴近年轻人生活，更易于理解。Under the guidance of Sun Jiayun, who assists judges in case handling at the court, the students from Beijing 101 High School completed the workshop within an hour, learning not only about the legal validity of wills, but also judicial procedures such as court investigation, evidence exchange and statements.在北京一中学生的参与下，在法院协助法官处理案件的孙佳韵指导下，学生们仅用一小时便完成了工作坊课程。他们不仅学习了遗嘱的法律效力，还了解了法庭调查、证据交换和陈述等司法程序。Legal education in China is undergoing a transformation, and it now offers customized courses for different participants, according to Sun.孙佳韵指出，中国的法律教育正在经历转型，如今为不同参与者提供定制化课程。This transformation is a result of the implementation of Xi Jinping Thought on the Rule of Law, which emphasizes the need to focus on the effectiveness of legal education, particularly by strengthening law education for young people.这一转变源于习近平法治思想的贯彻实施，该思想强调必须注重法律教育的实效性，特别是加强青少年法律教育。On Monday and Tuesday, at a central conference on work related to overall law-based governance in Beijing, President Xi Jinping instructed that efforts should be intensified on advancing the rule of law across various sectors in the nation's modernization drive.周一和周二，在北京市召开的关于全面依法治国工作的中央会议上，习近平主席指示，要加大力度推进各领域依法治国工作，为国家现代化建设提供有力保障。Xi, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, called for across-the-board efforts to ensure society-wide observance of the law.习近平同时担任中共中央总书记和中央军事委员会主席，他呼吁全社会共同努力，确保法律得到全面遵守。Zhao Leji, chairman of the National People's Congress Standing Committee, also underscored the priority of law-based governance, stressing the need to deepen the endeavor to build a law-abiding society.全国人大常委会委员长赵乐际也强调了依法治国的优先地位，指出必须深化依法治国、依法治党、依法治国、依法治民的实践。The meeting coincided with the fifth anniversary of the introduction of Xi Jinping Thought on the Rule of Law, which requires upholding a people-centered approach in advancing the building of the rule of law, and continuously enhancing the legal awareness and literacy of the entire public.此次会议恰逢习近平法治思想提出五周年。习近平法治思想要求坚持以人民为中心推进法治建设，不断提高全社会的法律意识和法律素养。激发兴趣Sparking interestHan Chu, a sophomore from the high school, played the role of a "judge" that afternoon.该校高二学生韩储当天下午扮演了“评委”的角色。During the workshop, he listened carefully to the statements of classmates playing the plaintiff and defendant, verified the various items of evidence they provided, and frequently consulted the provisions related to wills in the Civil Code.在研讨课上，他认真聆听了扮演原告和被告的同学们的陈述，核实了他们提供的各类证据，并频繁查阅《民法典》中关于遗嘱的相关条款。The script, adapted from real cases, revolved around three siblings who brought their deceased parents' handwritten, printed and audio-recorded wills to court, with each claiming sole inheritance.该剧本改编自真实案例，围绕三兄妹展开——他们将父母生前手写、打印及录音遗嘱带至法庭，各自主张获得全部遗产继承权。Han, guided by Sun, concluded that all three wills had legal flaws in accordance with the code, ruling that the family's assets should be divided equally among the three children.韩储在孙佳韵的指导下认定，根据该法典，三份遗嘱均存在法律瑕疵，裁定该家族资产应由三名子女均分。"Not only was this activity incredibly interesting, but it truly helped me grasp legal concepts. I've gained a much deeper understanding of the law by taking part in the workshop," Han said.韩储说：“这项活动不仅极其有趣，更让我真正掌握了法律概念。通过参与研讨会，我对法律有了更深入的理解。”His classmate Hu Shihan said: "The activity felt much more real than just reading textbooks. By stepping into a character's shoes, I experienced the courtroom process firsthand, which let me understand what I learned in class."他的同学胡世涵（音译）说：“这次活动比单纯读教科书真实得多。通过扮演角色，我亲身体验了法庭流程，这让我真正理解了课堂上学到的知识。”Sun beamed with satisfaction at the students' engagement. "For young people, such an immersive method is key to providing legal education," she said. "Reading law books and observing trials used to feel distant. By becoming the judges and litigants involved, their engagement and understanding deepen."孙佳韵对学生们的投入感到十分满意。“对年轻人而言，这种沉浸式教学法是开展法律教育的关键，”她说道，“过去阅读法律书籍和旁听庭审总让人觉得遥不可及。而当他们亲身扮演法官和诉讼当事人时，参与度和理解力都会显著提升。”"Our primary goal was never just to teach them laws, but to ignite a genuine interest. After all, interest is the best teacher, and that's the most important foundation for any learning," Sun added.孙佳韵补充道：“我们的首要目标从来不只是传授法律知识，而是要点燃他们真正的兴趣。毕竟，兴趣是最好的老师，这也是任何学习

China remained the world's largest express delivery market in 2024, accounting for 65 percent of global parcel volume, according to the Global Express Development Report (2025) released on Tuesday in Zhejiang province.根据周二在浙江发布的《全球快递发展报告（2025）》显示，2024年中国继续保持全球最大快递市场地位，占全球包裹量的65%。The report, unveiled at the 6th Express Delivery Industry Conference in Tonglu, Zhejiang, shows China has extended its leadership for an 11th consecutive year, reinforcing its role as the primary engine of global parcel market expansion.该报告在浙江桐庐举行的第六届快递业大会上发布，显示中国已连续11年保持领先地位，进一步巩固其作为全球包裹市场增长主要引擎的作用。The report found that global express and parcel services handled 267.9 billion items in 2024, up 17.49 percent year-on-year, while industry revenue grew 14.05 percent to 4.61 trillion yuan ($648 billion).报告显示，2024年全球快递与包裹服务共处理2679亿件，同比增长17.49%；行业收入增长14.05%，达到4.61万亿元人民币（6480亿美元）。China alone processed 175.08 billion parcels, an increase of 21.5 percent, with sector revenue rising 13.8 percent to 1.4 trillion yuan. The country's express market also stabilized at a historic scale of more than 10 billion parcels per month, a level unmatched worldwide.中国全年处理包裹1750.8亿件，同比增长21.5%；行业收入增长13.8%，达到1.4万亿元人民币。中国快递市场还稳定在每月超百亿件的历史规模，全球无可匹敌。"China's share of global express parcel volume has climbed to 65 percent, making it the key driver of the sector's global expansion," said Xie Momei, deputy director of the international business department at the Development and Research Center of the State Post Bureau.国家邮政局发展研究中心国际业务部副主任谢墨梅表示：“中国在全球快递包裹量中的占比已上升至65%，成为带动全球行业增长的关键力量。”Despite complex global conditions — including geopolitical tensions, an uneven economic recovery, and environmental risks — strong e-commerce growth continued to fuel parcel demand worldwide, Xie noted. She added that the express industry has significantly improved its quality and sustainable development, becoming one of the most efficient and technologically advanced logistics systems globally.谢墨梅指出，尽管全球面临地缘政治紧张、经济复苏不均衡和环境风险等复杂局势，但强劲的电商增长仍持续推动全球包裹需求。她补充说，快递行业在质量与可持续发展方面取得显著提升，已成为全球效率最高、技术最先进的物流系统之一。The report forecasts that global parcel volume is likely to exceed 300 billion pieces this year, with worldwide revenue poised to surpass 5 trillion yuan.报告预测，今年全球包裹量有望突破3000亿件，全球行业收入将超过5万亿元人民币。Industry leaders said China's domestic performance this year further reflects the sector's resilience. According to Gao Hongfeng, president of the China Express Association, China's parcel volume surpassed 150 billion items by Oct 11, reaching the milestone 37 days earlier than in 2024.行业专家表示，中国今年的国内表现进一步体现了行业的韧性。中国快递协会会长高宏峰介绍，截至10月11日，中国快递包裹量突破1500亿件，比2024年提前了37天达成这一里程碑。During this year's "Double 11" online shopping festival, postal and express enterprises handled 13.94 billion parcels from Oct 21 to Nov 11, with an average daily volume of 634 million, or 117.8 percent of normal levels.今年“双11”购物节期间，从10月21日至11月11日，邮政及快递企业共处理包裹139.4亿件，日均6.34亿件，是平日处理量的117.8%。The peak single-day volume soared to 777 million items, setting a new national record for daily parcel handling.高峰单日处理量攀升至7.77亿件，创下全国单日包裹处理的新纪录。"This demonstrates the steady growth of China's consumer market and the express industry's crucial role in supporting the unified national market," Gao said. He called for placing technological innovation at the core, accelerating intelligent upgrades, and promoting large-scale applications of unmanned delivery, smart cloud warehouses, and low-altitude logistics as the sector shifts from high-speed growth to high-quality development.高宏峰表示，“这表明中国消费市场持续增长，也体现了快递行业在支撑全国统一大市场中的关键作用。”他呼吁将科技创新置于核心位置，加快智能化升级，推动无人配送、智能云仓、低空物流等大规模应用，助力行业由高速增长向高质量发展转型。Express companies are already moving quickly in this direction. Lai Meisong, chairman of ZTO Express, said artificial intelligence is now applied across the entire logistics chain, enabling the digitalization of "every vehicle, every worker and every parcel".快递企业已在快速向这一方向迈进。中通快递董事长赖梅松表示，人工智能已应用于物流链条的全流程，实现了“车车在线、人人在线、件件在线”的数字化。Lai noted that ZTO's per-parcel transfer cost dropped from 1.26 yuan in 2016 to 0.63 yuan in the first half of 2025, while the average express delivery price in China declined from 12.7 yuan to 7.5 yuan over the same period. "This has freed up more than one trillion yuan in value that ultimately flows back to businesses and consumers," he said.赖梅松指出，中通单票中转成本已从2016年的1.26元降至2025年上半年的0.63元；同期中国快递平均价格从12.7元降至7.5元。“这释放出超过一万亿元的价值，最终回流至企业和消费者。”At ZTO's Tonglu sorting hub, eight Neolix autonomous vehicles have already been put into operation. Tang Rong, manager of the facility, said the driverless vehicles increased overall site efficiency by about 70 percent and significantly reduced labor costs.在中通快递的桐庐分拣中心，已有8台新石器（Neolix）自动驾驶车辆投入运营。该中心负责人唐荣表示，这些无人车使整体场地效率提升约70%，并大幅降低了人工成本。Each Neolix vehicle can handle the workload of three drivers and operates around the clock. A typical 60-kilometer delivery run costs about 15 yuan in electricity, compared with at least 50 yuan in fuel for a traditional vehicle covering the same distance.每台新石器（Neolix）无人车可承担三名驾驶员的工作量，并实现

Japan is "totally unqualified" to seek a seat as a permanent member of the UN Security Council, Fu Cong, China's permanent representative to the United Nations, said on Tuesday.中国常驻联合国代表傅聪周二表示，日本寻求成为联合国安理会常任理事国“完全没有资格”。Speaking at the UN General Assembly's annual debate on Security Council reform, Fu noted that recently Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi made a "brazen, provocative" statement on Taiwan at the Diet, claiming that a "Taiwan contingency" could be a "survival-threatening situation" for Japan. She implied that Japan may invoke the so-called right to collective self-defense to interfere militarily in the Taiwan Strait.在联合国大会关于安理会改革的年度辩论中发言时，傅聪指出，日本首相高市早苗近日在国会就台湾问题发表了“厚颜无耻、充满挑衅”的言论，声称“台湾突发状况”可能构成日本的“生存威胁”。她暗示日本可能援引所谓集体自卫权，对台湾海峡局势进行军事干预。"Sanae Takaichi's remarks on Taiwan are extremely erroneous and dangerous. They constitute a gross interference in China's internal affairs and a serious breach of the one-China principle and the spirit of the four political documents between China and Japan," Fu said.傅聪表示：“高市早苗有关台湾的言论极其错误且危险，构成对我国内政的严重干涉，严重违反一个中国原则和中日四项政治文件精神。”They are an affront to international justice, damage the post-war international order, trample on the basic norms of international relations, and represent a blatant departure from Japan's commitment to peaceful development, the Chinese envoy added.傅聪补充道，这些行为是对国际正义的践踏，破坏战后国际秩序，践踏国际关系基本准则，公然背离日本和平发展的承诺。"Such a country is totally unqualified to seek a permanent seat on the Security Council," the ambassador said.傅聪表示：“这样的国家完全没有资格寻求安理会常任理事国席位。”

Thanks to a governance approach that combines pollution control with climate action, China has seen the growth rate ofanthropogenic emissions ofnitrous oxide level off and steadily decline since 2013. N2O is a greenhouse gas far more potent than carbon dioxide.得益于将污染防治与气候行动相结合的治理模式，中国自2013年起已实现人为源一氧化二氮排放增速趋缓并稳步下降。一氧化二氮（N2O）是一种温室气体，其温室效应远强于二氧化碳。China's experience shows that economic growth does not necessarily mean higher emissions of this heat-trapping gas.中国的实践经验表明，经济增长并非必然导致这种吸热气体排放增加。The remarks were made on Saturday by Han Yinghui, associate professor at the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences' college of resources and environment, at an event on controlling non-carbon dioxide, or non-CO2, greenhouse gas emissions. The event was held at the Chinese pavilion on the sidelines of the 30th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, or COP30, in Belem, Brazil.上述观点由中国科学院大学资源与环境学院副教授韩颖慧于周六在一场非二氧化碳（non-CO2）温室气体减排相关活动中提出。该活动在巴西贝伦举行的《联合国气候变化框架公约》第三十次缔约方大会（COP30）期间，于中国馆举办。"N2O is decisive for achieving our temperature goals," Han said, highlighting the importance of anthropogenic N2O emissions control.韩颖慧指出，“一氧化二氮（N2O）减排对实现温控目标具有决定性意义”，并强调了人为源一氧化二氮排放管控的重要性。The Paris Agreement aim is to keep global temperature rise this century below 2 C above pre-industrial levels, with efforts to limit the increase to 1.5 C. Scientists increasingly agree that keeping global warming under 1.5 C is essential to avoid severe and catastrophic impacts.《巴黎协定》的目标是将本世纪全球气温上升幅度控制在工业化前水平以上2℃以内，并努力将升温幅度限制在1.5℃以内。科学家们日益达成共识，将全球变暖控制在1.5℃以内对于避免严重且灾难性的影响至关重要。As the third most significant long-lived greenhouse gas, N2O has a global warming potential nearly 300 times that of CO2 and remains in the atmosphere for more than a century, Han said. Globally, most N2O emissions come from agriculture, but energy, waste, and industrial sources also contribute. While agriculture produces the largest share, industrial sources offer the greatest potential for reduction.韩颖慧介绍，作为第三大重要长寿命温室气体，一氧化二氮（N2O）的全球变暖潜能值约为二氧化碳（CO2）的300倍，且在大气中可留存一个多世纪。全球范围内，一氧化二氮排放主要来源于农业领域，能源、废弃物及工业领域也有一定贡献。尽管农业排放占比最大，但工业领域的减排潜力最为突出。Han noted that while developed countries have historically contributed the most cumulative N2O emissions, recent increases have mainly been from emerging economies in Asia. "This makes N2O governance a complex challenge, involving both historical emissions and current development needs and requiring global cooperation," she said.韩颖慧表示，历史上发达国家的累计一氧化二氮（N2O）排放量占比最高，但近年来排放增长主要来自亚洲新兴经济体。“这使得一氧化二氮治理成为一项复杂挑战，既涉及历史排放问题，又关乎当前发展需求，需要全球通力合作。”China's progress, however, offers a hopeful signal. Han credited "synergistic governance" as the key to China's success.不过，中国取得的进展传递出积极信号。韩颖慧认为，“协同治理”是中国取得成效的关键。To reduce nitrogen oxide emissions for cleaner air, China has widely adopted a technology called selective catalytic reduction, or SCR, in coal-fired power plants. The effort has resulted in 70 to 90 percent mitigation in the emissions of coproduced N2O in the sector.为减少氮氧化物排放、改善空气质量，中国已在燃煤电厂广泛应用选择性催化还原（SCR）技术。这一举措使该行业协同产生的一氧化二氮（N2O）排放量降低了70%至90%。"This represents a unified technical strategy for reducing air pollutants and greenhouse gases, and shows China's successful integration of climate goals into environmental management," Han said.韩颖慧说：“这是一项兼顾大气污染物减排与温室气体控制的统一技术策略，体现了中国将气候目标融入环境管理的成功实践。”Her team also studied the link between provincial GDP and N2O emissions in China. "It shows a weak dependence, meaning that higher economic development does not automatically lead to more N2O emissions," she said.她的团队还研究了中国各省份GDP与一氧化二氮（N2O）排放之间的关联。“研究显示二者关联性较弱，这意味着经济发展水平的提高并不会自动导致一氧化二氮排放量增加。”China continues to advance N2O control. In September, authorities introduced an action plan targeting N2O emissions in the industrial sector. Proven technologies are already being applied, such as exhaust gas purification in adipic acid production, which removes more than 95 percent of N2O emissions while recovering the gas as a useful industrial product.中国仍在持续推进一氧化二氮（N2O）管控工作。今年9月，相关部门出台了针对工业领域一氧化二氮排放的行动计划。成熟技术已逐步落地应用，例如己二酸生产过程中的废气净化技术，可去除95%以上的一氧化二氮排放，同时将其回收转化为有用的工业产品。To encourage reductions, China is incorporating N2O data from the nitric acid industry into its national carbon trading system and promoting N2O mitigation projects under the China Certified Emission Reduction program.

China's Foreign Ministry has confirmed that Premier Li Qiang will not meet one-on-one with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi on the sidelines of the upcoming G20 Summit, as the political atmosphere between the two countries has suffered a great impact from Tokyo's persistence in not withdrawing Takaichi's provocative comments regarding Taiwan.中国外交部证实，李强总理不会在即将举行的二十国集团（G20）峰会期间与日本首相高市早苗举行单独会晤。由于东京方面坚持不收回高市早苗关于台湾问题的挑衅言论，两国政治氛围受到严重影响。"A meeting with the Japanese leader is not on Premier Li Qiang's agenda," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said on Monday in Beijing at a daily news briefing.中国外交部发言人毛宁周一在北京的例行记者会上表示：“李强总理的行程中没有安排与日本领导人的会晤。”Takaichi infuriated China after she publicly suggested on Nov 7 Japan's possible military intervention in Taiwan Strait affairs, making her the first incumbent Japanese prime minister to say so in the country's parliament.高市早苗11月7日公开暗示日本可能军事干预台湾海峡事务，此举激怒中国，使她成为日本首位在国会发表此类言论的现任首相。Media outlets in Japan said that Japan-China ties are worsening rapidly and that great attention is being paid to whether there will be a Li-Takaichi meeting at the G20 Summit in South Africa to help break the impasse.日本媒体称中日关系正急剧恶化，各方高度关注李强与高市早苗是否会在南非二十国集团峰会上会晤以打破僵局。"Li's not meeting with Takaichi is a solemn, righteous response to her hazardous remarks that have crossed the line about the Taiwan question and have damaged the political foundation of China-Japan ties," said Wang Peng, a research fellow at Huazhong University of Science and Technology's Institute of State Governance.华中科技大学国家治理研究院研究员王鹏表示：“李强总理不与高市早苗会面，是对其在台湾问题上越界发表危险言论、损害中日关系政治基础的严肃而正义的回应。”While Takaichi's remarks have raised criticism in Japan, some Japanese politicians claimed that China has "overreacted" to her comments.尽管高市早苗的言论在日本引发批评，但部分日本政界人士声称中国对她的言论“反应过度”。Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Minoru Kihara defended Takaichi's remarks by saying that the Japanese government's position on the Taiwan question "remains unchanged" and aligns with the China-Japan Joint Statement in 1972, one of the four landmark political documents that have underpinned the bilateral ties.日本内阁官房长官木原稔为高市早苗的言论辩护，称日本政府对台湾问题的立场“始终如一”，并符合1972年《中日联合声明》——该声明是支撑两国关系的四大里程碑式政治文件之一。In response, Mao, the Foreign Ministry spokeswoman, said on Monday that Takaichi's remarks "seriously contradict the spirit of the four political documents between China and Japan".对此，外交部发言人毛宁周一表示，高市早苗的言论“严重违背中日四份政治文件的精神”。The clear provisions on the Taiwan question in the four political documents "constitute solemn commitments made by the Japanese government, which has a legal effect under international law and leaves no room for ambiguity or misinterpretation", Mao said.毛宁指出，四项政治文件中关于台湾问题的明确规定“构成日本政府作出的庄严承诺，具有国际法效力，不容含糊其辞或曲解”。"Whichever political party or person is in power in Japan, they must always abide by the commitment of the Japanese government on the Taiwan question," she said.毛宁表示：“无论日本哪个政党或人物执政，都必须始终遵守日本政府在台湾问题上的承诺。”She once again urged Japan to approach history and relations with China in a responsible way, stop crossing the line and playing with fire, retract the wrongful remarks and act seriously to honor Japan's commitments to China.她再次敦促日本以负责任的态度对待历史和中日关系，停止越界和玩火行为，收回不当言论，切实履行对中国的承诺。Su Xiaohui, an associate research fellow at the China Institute of International Studies, said the strong protests made so far and countermeasures taken by Beijing should prompt Takaichi "to start reconsidering what she has done".中国国际问题研究院副研究员苏晓辉表示，迄今为止强烈的抗议以及北京采取的反制措施，应当促使高市早苗“开始重新考虑自己的所作所为”。The Japanese officials' responses so far show that Tokyo "does feel the pressure from Beijing although it has not made a fundamental change in its stance", Su said.苏晓辉表示，日本官员迄今的回应表明，东京方面“确实感受到来自北京的压力，尽管其立场尚未发生根本性转变”。Also on Monday, Masaaki Kanai, head of the Japanese Foreign Ministry's Asian and Oceanian Affairs Bureau, arrived in Beijing for a visit.同样在周一，日本外务省亚洲大洋洲局局长金井正彰抵达北京进行访问。Unnamed Japanese government sources told Japanese media, including Kyodo News Agency, that Kanai planned to meet with the Chinese side on Tuesday.日本政府匿名消息人士向共同社等日本媒体透露，金井正彰计划于周二与中国方面会晤。Lyu Chao, dean of Liaoning University's Institute of America and East Asia Studies, noted that Kanai is "an influential China hand at the Japanese Foreign Ministry".辽宁大学美国与东亚研究所所长吕超指出，金井正彰是“日本外务省一位颇具影响力的中国问题专家”。"Tokyo has downplayed the serious impact of Takaichi's remarks, and there is no way Japan can gloss it over at the Tuesday talks," Lyu said.吕超表示：“东京方面淡化了高市早苗言论的严重影响，但日本在周二的会谈中绝无可能对此轻描淡写。”As the announcement of the results of a China-Japan joint opinion poll and the Beijing-Tokyo Forum have been postponed at the request of China, Mao, the Foreign Ministry spokeswoman, said that Takaichi's remarks have seriously eroded the political foundation of China-Japan relations and poisoned public opinion.由于中日联合民调结果及北京-东京论坛的发布应中方要求推迟，外交部发言人毛宁表示，高市早苗的言论严重侵蚀中日关系的政治基础，毒化了舆论环境。"The environment and conditions for the joint opinion poll have changed enormously, so how much the results reflect reality and the timing of the announcement need to b

Amid the country's call to push an "AI+" initiative for improving scientific and technological strength, a key market player has showcased its latest achievements to power the current artificial intelligence drive.在国家号召推进“AI+”战略、提升科技实力的背景下，一家核心市场参与者亮出最新成果，为当前人工智能发展注入强劲动力。Kingdee International Software Group Co Ltd, a Hong Kong-listed company headquartered in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, showcased the country's first enterprise-levelAI native super entrance —"Xiao K"—which works 24/7 to help businesses reduce labor costs, and upgraded its "Kingdee Cloud" to "Kingdee AI".一家总部位于广东深圳的香港上市公司金蝶国际软件集团有限公司推出国内首个企业级AI原生超级入口——“小K”。该入口全天候24小时运行，可帮助企业降低人力成本，同时将其“金蝶云”升级为“金蝶AI”。Speaking in Shanghai on Nov 4 at Kingdee's Global Changemakers Conference 2025, Kingdee Chairman and CEO Xu Shao chun, said the Kingdee Xiao K has aggregated nearly 20AI native intelligent agents, covering multiple fields such as marketing, supply chain, human resources, finance and environmental, social and governance, all of which can be used out of it.11月4日，在上海举办的2025金蝶全球创变者大会上，金蝶集团董事长兼首席执行官徐少春表示，金蝶小K已整合近20个AI原生智能体。这些智能体覆盖营销、供应链、人力资源、财务及环境、社会和治理（ESG）等多个领域，均可直接调用。He stressed that in the wave of technological advancement, those who are brave enough to change themselves, constantly innovate and have independent thoughts are "changemakers".徐少春强调，在技术进步的浪潮中，勇于自我革新、持续创新且拥有独立思考能力的人，便是“创变者”。The Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued a communique on Oct 23, with an urge to markedly boost China's scientific and technological capabilities by the year 2035. Yin Hejun, minister of science and technology, said on Oct 24 that for this end, the "AI+" initiative will be fully implemented to empower all industries across the board.中国共产党第二十届中央委员会第四次全体会议于10月23日发布公报，提出到2035年显著提升国家科技实力的目标。10月24日，科技部部长阴和俊表示，为实现这一目标，将全面实施“AI+”战略，推动人工智能全方位赋能各行各业。Experts say embracing intelligent transformation and developing new quality productive forces are the most powerful drive in the current era.专家指出，拥抱智能转型、发展新质生产力，是当下时代最强劲的发展动力。Xu said Kingdee, a globally recognized provider of cloud-based enterprise management software as a service solutions by serving over 7.4 million enterprises and government organizations worldwide, will better embrace AI—"said to be the greatest technological revolution in human history".徐少春表示，金蝶作为全球知名的云原生企业管理软件服务解决方案提供商，已服务全球超740万家企业及政府机构。未来，金蝶将更好地拥抱这场“被誉为人类历史上最伟大的技术革命”的人工智能浪潮。Xu said: "This AI revolution is transforming ourselves."徐少春说：“这场人工智能革命正在重塑我们自身。”Founded in 1993 with multiple cloud service products, Kingdee emerged as the highest-scoring Chinese vendor at the Asia-PacificEnterprise Resource Planning Marketscape, which was recently released by International Data Corp.金蝶成立于1993年，拥有多款云服务产品。在国际数据公司近期发布的《亚太地区企业资源规划市场格局报告》中，金蝶成为评分最高的中国厂商。Liu Zhong wen, vice-president of Kingdee China and general manager of R&D center, said AI should not only be a tool for executing commands, but also an intelligent agent that can actively understand business goals and drive the entire process until measurable business results are achieved.金蝶中国副总裁、研发中心总经理刘仲文表示，人工智能不应只是执行指令的工具。更应成为能够主动理解业务目标、推动全流程直至取得可量化业务成果的智能体。"The entire pattern has undergone a fundamental change," he said, noting that "Previously, humans were in the driver's seat and AI was copilot. Now, AI has become the dominant force and humans have become copilot. This is what intelligent agents are."刘仲文表示：“整个格局已经发生根本性转变，”他指出，“过去，人类是主导者，人工智能是辅助者；如今，人工智能成为主导力量，人类转为辅助者——这就是智能体的核心价值。”Chen Ning, chairman and CEO of Shenzhen-based Intellifusion Technologies Co Ltd—one of China's earliest AI chip developers and listed on Shanghai's STAR Market—said: "2025 will be a defining year for AI. Today we stand at the doorstep of the fourth industrial revolution, where algorithms, big models, chips and data have become a series of key elements."中国最早的AI芯片研发企业之一，已在上海科创板上市的深圳云天励飞技术股份有限公司董事长兼首席执行官陈宁表示：“2025年将是人工智能发展的关键一年。我们正站在第四次工业革命的门口，算法、大模型、芯片和数据已成为一系列核心要素。”He added: "It is highly likely that by 2030, humanity will fully enter the fourth industrial revolution represented by AI new quality productive forces."陈宁补充道：“到2030年，人类极有可能全面进入以人工智能新质生产力为代表的第四次工业革命。”Chen noted that in this context, Intellifusion has partnered with Kingdee to launch a deep integration plan called "Core Software Symbiosis", with an aim to connect with 100 Kingdee ecosystem partners by next year and promote 1,000 enterprises to complete the intelligent upgrade of "software + computing power" to AI in the next three years.陈宁表示，在此背景下，云天励飞与金蝶达成合作，推出“软硬共生”深度融合计划。目标是明年接入100家金蝶生态伙伴，并在未来三年内推动1000家企业完成“软件+算力”向人工智能的智能升级。On Aug 18, Kingdee signed a strategic cooperation agreement in Kuala Lumpur with Chin Hin Group Berhad, a diversified construction industry leader in Malaysia, to deepen its global footprint.8月18日，金蝶在吉隆坡与马来西亚多元化建筑行业领军企业振兴集团签署战略合作协议，进一步拓展其全球业务版图。Chiau Haw Choon, president of Chin Hin Group Berhad, said in Shanghai that while over 95 percent of businesses in Malaysia have chose

Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi'sprovocative remarks on China's Taiwan recently drew heavy criticism from officials, experts and citizens domestically.日本首相高市早苗近日就中国台湾问题发表的挑衅言论，引发日本国内官员、专家及民众的强烈批评。These statements misjudged Japan's current security environment and constituted a severe violation of the one-China policy, which could undermine the foundation of mutual trust between China and Japan, and even trigger regional security risks, they noted.这些言论误判了日本当前的安全环境，严重违反了一个中国政策，可能动摇中日互信基础，甚至引发地区安全风险。On Saturday evening, about 100 Japanese citizens gathered in front of the prime minister's official residence in Tokyo to protest against Takaichi's erroneous remarks and demand her resignation. The demonstrators chanted slogans such as "Retract your remarks, apologize immediately", "Takaichi step down", and "Those who cannot conduct diplomacy should not be prime minister".周六晚间，约100名日本民众聚集在东京首相官邸前，抗议高市早苗的错误言论并要求其辞职。示威者高呼“收回言论，立即道歉”、“高市下台”、“不懂外交者不该当首相”等口号。Takaichi claimed at a meeting on Nov 7 at the Diet, Japan's legislature, that a Taiwan emergency involving the use of military vessels and military force from the Chinese mainland could constitute a "survival-threatening situation" for Japan. According to legislation, Japan's Self-Defense Forces could exercise the right of collective self-defense if such a situation is recognized as "survival-threatening".高市早苗11月7日在日本国会会议上声称，若台湾地区发生涉及中国大陆动用军舰和武力的紧急事态，可能构成对日本的“生存威胁局面”。根据日本法律规定，若此类事态被认定为“生存威胁”，日本自卫队可行使集体自卫权。Ukeru Magosaki, director of the East Asian Community Institute and a former senior official at Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, told China Daily that if Japan were to take military action in a contingency involving Taiwan, it would be regarded as interference in China's internal affairs and would inevitably trigger responses from China.东亚共同体研究所所长、日本外务省前高官孙崎享向《中国日报》表示，若日本在涉及台湾的突发事件中采取军事行动，将被视为干涉中国内政，势必引发中国的应对措施。"From the perspective of Japan's national security, this would yield no positive outcome," Magosaki said.孙崎享表示：“从日本国家安全的角度来看，这不会产生任何积极结果。”Magosaki warned that Takaichi's recent remarks not only "undermined the established political principles" but also "seriously distorted the existing mutual trust" between Japan and China.孙崎享警告称，高市早苗最近的言论不仅“破坏了既定的政治原则”，还“严重扭曲了中日两国现有的相互信任”。Magosaki said this trust is based onthe 1972 Japan-China joint statement, which acknowledges Taiwan as an inalienable part of China, and emphasized that mutual trust is one of the most important aspects of Japan-China relations.孙崎享表示，这种信任基于1972年《中日联合声明》，该声明承认台湾是中国不可分割的一部分，并强调相互信任是中日关系最重要的方面之一。"Takaichi's comments are entirely detrimental and bring no benefits. As a result, the relationship between Japan and its neighboring country China is further strained," he added.他补充道：“高市早苗的言论完全有害无益，导致日本与邻国中国的关系进一步紧张。”Hiroshi Shiratori, a political science professor at Hosei University in Tokyo, said Takaichi's statements "exaggerate and even misjudge Japan's current security environment" and clearly deviate from Japan's self-claimed long-standing identity as a "peaceful nation" and the pacifist principles enshrined in its constitution.东京法政大学政治学教授白鸟浩指出，高市早苗的言论“夸大了甚至误判了日本当前的安全环境”，明显偏离了日本自称的“和平国家”传统定位及其宪法所载的和平主义原则。Within this policy framework, discussions of deploying Japan's Self-Defense Forces in the event of a military intervention in Taiwan "not only depart from pacifist principles but also violate Japan's long-established diplomatic approach toward China", Shiratori said.白鸟浩表示，在此政策框架下，关于在台湾发生军事干预时部署日本自卫队的讨论“不仅背离了和平主义原则，也违背了日本长期以来对华外交方针”。Japan and China's leaders had only recently had a long-awaited meeting, and it is regrettable that such remarks at this moment could damage bilateral relations, Shiratori said.白鸟浩表示，中日两国领导人刚刚举行了期待已久的会晤，此时发表此类言论可能损害双边关系，令人遗憾。He said that Takaichi's comments not only affect Japan-China relations but could also place the security of the entire East Asian region at unnecessary risk.他表示，高市早苗的言论不仅影响中日关系，还可能使整个东亚地区的安全面临不必要的风险。Despite China's serious demarches and protests, Takaichi refused to retract her remarks that imply the possibility of armed intervention in the Taiwan Strait.尽管中国提出严正交涉和抗议，高市早苗仍拒绝收回暗示可能对台湾海峡采取武力干预的言论。Takaichi's erroneous statements and actions also sparked criticism from multiple Japanese lawmakers who called on her to retract her remarks.高市早苗的错误言论和行为也引发了多名日本国会议员的批评，他们要求她收回相关言论。Successive warnings一系列的警告Former Japanese prime ministers Yukio Hatoyama and Shigeru Ishiba also issued successive warnings regarding her provocative comments.日本前首相鸠山由纪夫和石破茂也相继就她的挑衅言论发出警告。On Thursday, speaking on a TBS radio program, Ishiba said Takaichi's remarks were "very close to claiming that a Taiwan contingency is a Japan contingency", noting that previous governments have consistently avoided making definitive declarations on how the government would respond to specific scenarios regarding the Taiwan question.周四，石破茂在TBS电台节目中表示，高市早苗的言论“几乎等同于宣称台湾有事即日本有事”，并指出历届政府始终避免就台湾问题具体情境如何应对作出明确表态。Hatoyama addressed Takaichi's comments on X on Tuesday, emphasizing that J

Recently, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi openly claimed at the Diet that "something happening to Taiwan" could constitute an "existential crisis situation" in which Japan could exercise the right to collective self-defense, implying a possible military intervention in the Taiwan Strait issue.近日，日本首相高市早苗在国会公然宣称“台湾发生事态”可能构成日本行使集体自卫权的“存亡危机事态”，暗示可能对台湾海峡问题进行军事干预。On the afternoon of today (the 14th), Senior Colonel Jiang Bin, Deputy Director of the Press Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense and Spokesperson of the Ministry of National Defense, released information on recent military-related issues and commented on Sanae Takaichi's remarks concerning Taiwan.今天（14日）下午，国防部新闻局副局长、国防部新闻发言人蒋斌大校就近期涉军问题发布消息，并就高市早苗涉台言论进行评论。Jiang Bin stated that the wrong remarks made by Japanese leaders on Taiwan constitute a gross interference in China's internal affairs. They seriously violate theone-China principle, the spirit of the four Sino-Japanese political documents and the basic norms governing international relations, challenge the post-war international order, and send a serious wrong signal to "Taiwan independence" forces. Such remarks are extremely bad in nature and impact, and are highly irresponsible and dangerous.蒋斌表示，日本领导人涉台错误言论粗暴干涉中国内政，严重违背一个中国原则、中日四个政治文件精神和国际关系基本准则，挑战战后国际秩序，向“台独”势力发出严重错误信号，性质影响十分恶劣，极不负责、极其危险。The Taiwan question is purely an internal affair of China and admits no external interference. This year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory ofthe Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, as well as the 80th anniversary of Taiwan's recovery. If Japan fails to profoundly learn from historical lessons, dares to take reckless risks, or even intervene militarily in the Taiwan Strait situation, it will inevitably be badly beaten against the iron wall of the Chinese People's Liberation Army and pay a heavy price.台湾问题纯属中国内政，不容任何外来干涉。今年是中国人民抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争胜利80周年，也是台湾光复80周年。日方若不深刻汲取历史教训，胆敢铤而走险，甚至武力介入台海局势，必将在中国人民解放军的铜墙铁壁面前碰得头破血流，付出惨痛代价。"Should the Japanese side fail to draw lessons from history and dare to take a risk, or even use force to interfere in the Taiwan question, it will only suffer a crushing defeat against the steel-willedChinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) and pay a heavy price," stressed a Chinese defense spokesperson on November 14, 2025.2025年11月14日，中国国防部发言人强调：“日方若不汲取历史教训，胆敢铤而走险，甚至以武力干涉台湾问题，必将在中国人民解放军的钢铁意志面前遭遇惨败，付出沉重代价。”The Chinese Defense Spokesperson Senior Colonel Jiang Bin made the above remarks at a regular press briefing on Friday when being asked to comment on media reports that Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi recently said that if the Chinese mainland uses military vessels and other forces against Taiwan, it would cause a situation threatening Japan's survival, and the Japanese Self-defense Force could exercise the right of collective self-defense in accordance with law.国防部发言人蒋斌大校在周五的例行记者会上，就媒体报道的相关问题作出上述回应。报道称，日本首相高市早苗近期表示，若中国大陆动用军舰等力量针对台湾，将造成威胁日本生存的局面，日本自卫队可依法行使集体自卫权。The spokesperson added that the erroneous remarks on Taiwan made by the Japanese leader constitute a gross interference in China's internal affairs, and a serious violation of the one-China principle, the spirit of the four political documents between China and Japan, and the basic norms governing international relations. The remarks have challenged the post-war international order, and sent very wrong signals to the "Taiwan independence" separatist forces. Such words are egregious in nature and have caused very negative impact. They are extremely irresponsible and dangerous.蒋斌补充指出，日本领导人涉台错误言论，严重干涉中国内政，严重违反一个中国原则、中日四个政治文件精神和国际关系基本准则。该言论挑战战后国际秩序，向“台独”分裂势力发出严重错误信号，性质极其恶劣、影响十分负面，是极不负责、极其危险的。The spokesperson emphasized that the Taiwan question is purely China's internal affair, which brooks no foreign interference. He said that this year, China commemorated the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, and the 80th anniversary of the restoration of Taiwan.蒋斌强调，台湾问题纯属中国内政，不容任何外来干涉。他表示，今年是中国人民抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争胜利80周年，也是台湾光复80周年。"Should the Japanese side fail to draw lessons from history and dare to take a risk, or even use force to interfere in the Taiwan question, it will only suffer a crushing defeat against the steel-willed Chinese PLA and pay a heavy price," stressed the spokesperson at the end.蒋斌最后强调：“日方若不吸取历史教训，妄图冒险甚至动用武力干涉台湾问题，必将遭到意志钢铁的中国人民解放军的沉重打击，付出惨痛代价。”the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War中国人民抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争one-China principle一个中国原则Chinese People's Liberation Army中国人民解放军

Hong Kong pedal ace Ceci Lee Sze-wing's successful title defense in the women's road cycling individual event during the ongoing 15th National Games has once again turned the spotlight on the city's cycling team, which is known for its stellar show in premier tournaments.在正在进行的第十五届全运会上，中国香港自行车名将李思颖成功卫冕女子公路自行车个人赛冠军。这一成绩再次让以顶尖赛事出色表现闻名的中国香港自行车队成为焦点。Lee's gold is the second for the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region so far in this year's games, and she is also the third athlete from the SAR to triumph more than once at the National Games after Asian cycling legend Wong Kam-po and Olympian Sarah Lee Wai-sze.李思颖的这枚金牌是中国香港特别行政区在本届全运会上斩获的第二枚金牌。她也成为继亚洲自行车传奇人物黄金宝、奥运冠军李慧诗之后，第三位在全运会上多次夺冠的香港特区运动员。While hard work and discipline form the mainstay of Hong Kong cycling team's medal-winning performances, the application of cutting-edge sports technologies developed through the joint efforts of the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong has been a significant contributor to its success.香港自行车队的奖牌成就固然以刻苦训练和严格自律为核心，但内地与香港联合研发的尖端体育科技应用，同样是其成功的重要助力。A central research facility at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, which specializes in developing high-tech aerodynamic and acoustic surroundings, boasts a low-noise wind tunnel that can simulate a cycling race environment.香港科技大学的一处核心研究设施专注于研发高科技气动与声学环境，其中拥有一座低噪音风洞，可模拟自行车比赛场景。This facility, when further empowered by the nation's Tianhe 2 supercomputer in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, can not only improve cyclists' riding postures, but also assist in the development of the most suitable bike design and cycling bodysuit for them.该设施借助广东省广州市的国家“天河二号”超级计算机进一步赋能，不仅能优化运动员的骑行姿态，还能协助研发最适配他们的自行车设计与骑行服。Zhang Xin, director of the university's Aerodynamics and Acoustics Facility, highlighted the importance of using a supercomputer to develop sports technologies. As human muscle tissues and physical conditions constantly change, the computation process is complex and requires the use of a supercomputer, he said.香港科技大学气动与声学实验室主任张欣（音译）强调了利用超级计算机研发体育科技的重要性。他表示，人体肌肉组织和身体状态不断变化，计算过程复杂，必须借助超级计算机完成。Athletes of the Hong Kong cycling team have worn aero-speed suits developed and tested in the wind tunnel to compete at various major sports events, including the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province. These bodysuits, tailor-made for each athlete, are estimated to reduce wind drag by an impressive 3 percent.香港自行车队运动员已身着经风洞研发测试的气动速干服，参与了包括2020年东京奥运会、2022年杭州亚运会在内的多项重大体育赛事。这些为每位运动员量身定制的服装，预计可显著降低3%的风阻。Other sports disciplines, such as windsurfing and triathlon, have also employed simulations developed using the supercomputer and the wind tunnel to optimize the postures and movements of athletes.帆板、铁人三项等其他体育项目也运用了超级计算机和风洞研发的模拟技术，优化运动员的动作姿态。During training sessions in Stanley on Hong Kong Island, sensors developed by the university recorded athletes' physical data, which was subsequently analyzed using the supercomputer.在香港岛赤柱的训练期间，该校研发的传感器记录下运动员的身体数据，随后通过超级计算机进行分析。According to Zhang, the Tianhe 2 simulated the wind conditions at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and provided the information to head coaches of the windsurfing and sailing teams. The supercomputer helped to enhance athletes' posture optimization, as well as design and select equipment, he said.张欣透露，“天河二号”曾模拟2024年巴黎奥运会的风力条件，并将相关数据提供给帆板队和帆船队主教练。超级计算机为运动员的姿态优化、装备设计与选型提供了有力支持。Sports technology cooperation between the mainland and Hong Kong has deepened in recent years, with more agreements signed for further development, serving both professional athletes and the public.近年来，内地与香港的体育科技合作不断深化，签署了更多合作协议推动后续发展，惠及专业运动员与普通民众。In September, Hong Kong Polytechnic University and mainland sportswear brand Li-Ning signed a memorandum of understanding to establish the Li-Ning-PolyU Joint Research Centre for Sports Science, which aims to enhance technological application and promote industrial transformation in the sports and health sectors.9月，香港理工大学与内地运动服装品牌李宁签署合作备忘录，成立“李宁-理大体育科学联合研究中心”，旨在加强体育健康领域的技术应用与产业转型。In Guangzhou, the Nansha Sub-Center of National Supercomputer Center provides the mainland's first supercomputer direct network line for Hong Kong. A dedicated high-speed fiber-optic network from the Tianhe 2 supercomputer is used to link Guangdong and Hong Kong's scientific innovation capabilities, enabling Hong Kong users to swiftly utilize the nation's supercomputing resources. The center has continuously provided support for technological innovation in Hong Kong and Macao.在广州，国家超级计算中心南沙分中心为香港开通了内地首条超级计算机直连网络专线。依托“天河二号”的专用高速光纤网络，链接粤港两地科创力量，让香港用户可快速调用国家超级计算资源。该中心持续为港澳地区的技术创新提供支持。For athletes from Macao and Hong Kong, traveling to the mainland for training and using sports technologies to improve their skills have become common.对于港澳运动员而言，赴内地训练并运用体育科技提升竞技水平已成为常态。Macao athlete Chan Man-hin, who participated in the National Games sailing event last month, said he was equipped with a high-end GPS tracker when he trained on the mainland.

This red agate bead strung upon a bamboo skewer encapsulates the most exquisite paradoxical aesthetics of Chinese cuisine—the tart astringency of hawthorn juxtaposed with the sweet crispness of its sugar coating; the refined elegance of imperial medicinal cuisine contrasted with the street-side bustle of hawkers' cries; the weight of millennia-old tradition set against the fleeting trends of social media.

The global patent landscape marked its fifth consecutive year of growth, as China once again led the world with an impressive 1.8 millionpatent applications, according to a report issued by theWorld Intellectual Property Organization on Wednesday.据世界知识产权组织（WIPO）当地时间周三发布的报告显示，全球专利领域已连续第五年实现增长，中国以180万件的可观专利申请量再度领跑全球。The World Intellectual Property Indicators 2025 showed that global patent and industrial design application numbers continued their upward trajectory last year, with China standing out for its remarkable performance in these areas.《2025年世界知识产权指标》报告指出，去年全球专利及工业品外观设计申请量持续呈上升态势，中国在这些领域的表现尤为突出。In 2024, the number of global patent applications reached a record high of 3.7 million, marking a 4.9 percent increase from 2023 and the fifth straight year the number has risen.2024年，全球专利申请量达到370万件的历史新高，较2023年增长4.9%，实现连续五年增长。"This was the fastest growth since 2018, with many countries reporting a rise in applications," said Daren Tang, director general of the World Intellectual Property Organization.世界知识产权组织总干事邓鸿森表示：“这是2018年以来的最快增速，多个国家的专利申请量均出现增长。”China maintained its position as the global leader with 1.8 million patent applications, followed by the United States (501,831), Japan (419,132), South Korea (295,722) and Germany (133,485), per the report.报告显示，中国以180万件专利申请量稳居全球首位，紧随其后的是美国（501,831件）、日本（419,132件）、韩国（295,722件）和德国（133,485件）。It noted that computer technology continued to be the sector in which the highest number of published patent applications were sought across the world, accounting for over 13 percent of the global total, followed by electrical machinery, measurement technology, digital communications and medical technology.报告提到，计算机技术仍是全球已公布专利申请量最多的领域，占全球总量的13%以上（部分数据源显示具体占比为13.2%），其次是电机设备、测量技术、数字通信和医疗技术。After a slow two years, global trademark applications showed signs of a rebound in 2024, reaching 15.2 million, it said, revealing that the largest source of such applications was China, with approximately 7.3 million filings.经过两年的缓慢发展，2024年全球商标申请量出现反弹迹象，总量达1520万件。报告显示，中国是全球商标申请的最大来源国，申请量约为730万件。In addition, Chinese applicants filed for more than 906,000 design patents last year, ranking first globally, it added.此外，中国申请人去年提交的外观设计专利申请量超90.6万件（详细统计数据为906,849件），位居全球第一。Tang emphasized the significant role of intellectual property in today's global economy.邓鸿森强调了知识产权（IP）在当今全球经济中的重要作用。"In many businesses, it has become a critical asset at the heart of the business strategy; agame-changing technology, a brand that engenders feelings of trust and belonging, or a design that brings joy through its beauty," he said.他表示：“在许多企业中，知识产权已成为企业核心战略的关键资产——可能是一项具有变革性的技术、一个能引发信任与归属感的品牌，或是一款凭借美感带来愉悦的设计。”He noted that the growth in IP filings is a sign that market participants—both buyers and sellers—have trust in the IP system, a testament to the increased focus that national governments are putting on their innovation ecosystems, with WIPO's support for cooperation at the local, national and multilateral levels.邓鸿森指出，知识产权申请量的增长表明，市场参与者（无论是买家还是卖家）都对知识产权体系抱有信任。这一现象也证明，在世界知识产权组织对地方、国家及多边层面合作的支持下，各国政府正愈发重视本国的创新生态系统。"And it is vital that this confidence is sustained by a continuous process of reinforcement of IP standards globally, because businesses need a well-functioning IP ecosystem that facilitates the protection of IP globally," he added.他补充道：“至关重要的是，需通过持续强化全球知识产权标准来维持这种信任，因为企业需要一个运转良好的知识产权生态系统，以促进全球范围内的知识产权保护。”However, there are still some areas that need attention and improvement, Tang said, encouraging female inventors to participate in the international patent applications.不过，邓鸿森表示仍有部分领域需要关注和改进，并鼓励女性发明者参与国际专利申请。"Millions of women have the potential to contribute innovations, and their participation will add more innovative fuel to the global economy," he said.他说：“数百万女性拥有贡献创新成果的潜力，她们的参与将为全球经济注入更多创新动力。”The annual report is based on statistical data from the IP offices of approximately 150 countries and regions worldwide.这份年度报告基于全球约150个国家和地区知识产权局的统计数据编制而成。It provides a comprehensive overview of global application trends in such fields as patents, trademarks and industrial designs.这份报告全面概述了专利、商标、工业品外观设计及其他知识产权领域的全球申请趋势。World Intellectual Property Organization世界知识产权组织patent applications专利申请game-changing具有变革性的

President Xi Jinping said on Wednesday that China is willing to work with Spain to forge a comprehensive strategic partnership with greater strategic determination, dynamism and global influence, as he met with King Felipe VI of Spain, the first Spanish monarch to make a state visit to China in 18 years.The four-day trip, which started on Monday, comes as the highlight of a series of high-level interactions between the two countries, following a visit in April by Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, who made three visits to China in the past three years.Xi said that over the 50 years since the establishment of diplomatic relations, China and Spain have always viewed and developed bilateral relations from a strategic height and long-term perspective, respected and supported each other, and contributed to each other's success.This has set a model of pursuing amicable ties and common development by countries with different histories, cultures and social systems, Xi said.The Chinese president stressed that the two countries have played an important role in promoting openness and cooperation in the world and in upholding international fairness and justice.Xi lauded the remarkable contributions made by the Spanish royal family in developing China-Spain relations, and emphasized that King Felipe VI's visit is of great significance to the further advancement of the friendship and cooperation between the two countries.Noting that China cherishes its traditional friendship with Spain and values Spain's unique role in international and regional affairs, Xi said both sides should further consolidate mutual support, maintain the momentum of high-level exchanges, strengthen strategic guidance, and ensure that bilateral relations always stay on the right track.On practical cooperation, Xi said China is willing to import more quality products from Spain, explore the potential of cooperation in emerging areas, expand mutual investment, and build more signature projects.Xi called on the two countries to leverage their complementary strengths and jointly explore third-party markets such as Latin America.Statistics showed that bilateral trade volume between China and Spain exceeded $50 billion last year, while two-way investment surpassed $11 billion. China is Spain's largest trading partner outside the European Union, while Spain is one of China's key trading partners within the EU.China and Spain should enhance exchanges in culture and education, and support each other in the operation of cultural and language institutions in each other's country, Xi said, adding that China will continue its visa-free policy for Spain to further facilitate people-to-people exchanges. Xi explained his vision on building a community with a shared future for humanity, saying he hopes that countries could rise above differences in social systems and ideologies, build consensus through dialogue and consultation, and work together to turn the aspirations of people around the world for a better life into reality.During the talks, the Spanish king expressed his pleasure in visiting China and praised the long-standing friendship and mutual trust between the two countries, as well as China's remarkable achievements in poverty alleviation and green development.He acknowledged the role of Chinese investment in fueling Spain's economic growth and green transition, and expressed Spain's willingness to strengthen its cooperation with China in the areas of economy, trade, technology and renewable energy.He said Spain and China share highly similar philosophies on many international affairs, and both support multilateralism and the settlement of disputes through dialogue and consultation.Spain highly appreciates the four major global initiatives put forward by Xi, and is going to work with China to respond to uncertainties in the international situation with a view to upholding international trade order and promoting the steady development of the global economy, he said.Following the talks, the two leaders witnessed the signing of 10 cooperation documents in areas including the economy and trade, science and technology, and education.Premier Li Qiang and Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress Zhao Leji also met separately with King Felipe VI on Wednesday.Before traveling to Beijing, King Felipe VI visited Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, where he attended a business forum on Tuesday.

 China on Wednesday expressed "strong dissatisfaction and resolute opposition" to egregious remarks about Taiwan made in parliament by Japan's leader, saying they severely violated the one-China principle and constituted gross interference in China's internal affairs.北京——中国周三对日本领导人在国会发表的涉台恶劣言论表示“强烈不满和坚决反对”，称其严重违反一个中国原则，是对中国内政的粗暴干涉。"The world has only one China and Taiwan is part of China," said Chen Binhua, aspokesperson for China's State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, at a regular press conference when asked about these comments.中国国务院台湾事务办公室发言人陈斌华在例行新闻发布会上回应相关提问时表示：“世界上只有一个中国，台湾是中国领土不可分割的一部分。”Chen's remarks came after Japan's leader recently made statements concerning Taiwan during a parliamentary session. These statements drew sharp criticism from China.此前，日本领导人近期在国会会议期间就台湾问题发表相关言论，引发中国方面强烈批评。"Japan has committed crimes in history against the Chinese people on the Taiwan question," Chen stated, noting that during its colonial rule over Taiwan for half a century, Japan committed innumerable crimes.陈斌华指出：“日本在历史上曾在台湾问题上对中国人民犯下罪行。”他提到，日本对台湾进行了长达半个世纪的殖民统治，期间犯下了罄竹难书的罪行。The spokesperson highlighted that 80 years ago, China defeated the Japanese aggressors and restored Taiwan -- thereby ending Japan's occupation and plunder of the island.陈斌华强调，80年前，中国打败了日本侵略者，收复了台湾，结束了日本对该岛的占领和掠夺。"Today, 80 years later, should anyone attempt to challenge China's core interests and obstruct China's reunification, the Chinese government, Chinese people and Chinese military will never accept it and never tolerate it," Chen warned.陈斌华警告称：“80年后的今天，任何人若企图挑战中国核心利益、阻挠中国统一大业，中国政府、中国人民和中国人民解放军都绝不答应、绝不容忍。”He urged Japan to "deeply reflect on history, draw lessons from history, strictly adhere to theone-China principle and the spirit of the four political documents between China and Japan, honor its political commitments on the Taiwan question, and exercise extreme caution when handling Taiwan-related matters."他敦促日本“深刻反省历史、汲取历史教训，严格恪守一个中国原则和中日四个政治文件精神，切实履行在台湾问题上作出的政治承诺，在涉台问题上谨言慎行”。The spokesperson also issued a stern warning to Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party authorities, stating that "any scheme to rely on external forces to split Taiwan from China is doomed to fail."陈斌华还向台湾民进党当局发出严正警告：“任何企图‘倚外谋独’的分裂行径，都注定以失败告终。”spokesperson for China's State Council Taiwan Affairs Office中国国务院台湾事务办公室发言人one-China principle一个中国原则

Since the beginning of this year, various regions across China have begun providing financial incentives for marriage to boost the birth rate.今年以来，中国多个地区已开始提供结婚相关经济激励，以推动出生率提升。The number of first marriages in China plummeted to 9.17 million in 2024, a drop of over 60 percent from the 23.86 million peak in 2013. Marriage registrations have fallen from 13.47 million couples in 2013 to 6.11 million last year, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.国家统计局数据显示，2024年中国初婚人数骤降至917万，较2013年2386万的峰值下降超60%。婚姻登记对数也从2013年的1347万对降至去年的611万对。A patchwork of local initiatives aimed at fostering a marriage and birth-friendly social environment has emerged.各地已纷纷出台一系列地方性举措，旨在营造有利于结婚生育的社会环境。In Zhejiang, a coordinated provincial effort is underway to encourage couples to tie the knot. Since Oct 28, Ningbo has been offering newly registered couples 1,000 yuan ($140) in consumption vouchers that can be used for wedding-related expenses, such as banquets, photography, and travel. Similar vouchers are available in Hangzhou, Shaoxing's Keqiao district, and Jinhua's Pujiang county.在浙江，全省正协同发力鼓励情侣步入婚姻。自10月28日起，宁波向新登记结婚的夫妻发放1000元（约合140美元）消费券，可用于婚宴、摄影、旅游等婚庆相关支出。杭州、绍兴柯桥区、金华浦江县也推出了类似消费券政策。In Guangzhou's Baiyun district, Nanling village offers even more generous incentives. Early in 2025, the village announced rewards of up to 80,000 yuan for first marriages and up to 120,000 yuan for childbirth. It requires couples to maintain their marriage for at least one year before receiving the subsidy.广州白云区南岭村的激励力度更为丰厚。2025年初，该村宣布对初婚夫妻奖励最高8万元，生育子女奖励最高12万元。政策要求夫妻需维持婚姻关系至少一年方可领取补贴。He Jiamin, a Nanling village official, said that the policy's incentive effect is already evident, with a noticeable increase in registrations expected compared to previous years, Jiemian News reported on Tuesday.据界面新闻周二报道，南岭村村干部何佳敏(音译）表示，该政策的激励效果已初步显现，预计今年的婚姻登记数量将较往年有明显增长。Shanxi's approach is more direct. Since Jan 1, eligible newlyweds in Lyuliang can receive a 1,500 yuan cash bonus at the registration office without needing to apply.山西的做法则更为直接。自1月1日起，吕梁符合条件的新婚夫妻在登记处即可领取1500元现金补贴，无需额外申请。Beyond these marriage incentives, many regions are setting up comprehensive support systems covering marriage, childbirth, daycare, and education. Marriage registration is becoming more convenient, and support policies are extending beyond marriage to offer childcare subsidies, extend marriage leave, and more.除结婚激励外，多地正构建涵盖结婚、生育、托育、教育的全方位支持体系。婚姻登记流程不断简化，支持政策也从结婚延伸至育儿补贴、延长婚假等多个方面。Despite these efforts, experts emphasize that the structural decrease in the number of women of childbearing age presents a significant challenge.不过专家强调，育龄女性数量的结构性下降仍是一大挑战。From 2010 to 2020, the number of women aged 15 to 49 decreased by 57.49 million, while those in their prime childbearing years, aged 20 to 29, dropped by 34.63 million. This demographic shift is a key factor driving the decline in marriage registrations, suggesting that more comprehensive and systemic measures are essential to address these challenges.2010年至2020年间，中国15-49岁育龄女性减少5749万，其中20-29岁黄金生育年龄女性减少3463万。这一人口结构变化是婚姻登记数下降的关键因素，意味着需要更全面、系统性的措施来应对这些挑战。demographic/ˌdeməˈɡræfɪk/adj.人口结构的；人口统计的

An artificial intelligence-generated deepfake of Chinese actress Wen Zhengrong's face and voice was used by unscrupulous merchants to impersonate her in livestream sales, prompting increased calls for stronger and more tailored regulation and penalties from internet platforms and the law.近日，有不良商家利用人工智能生成的深度伪造内容，盗用中国女演员温峥嵘的人脸和声音进行直播带货。这一事件引发了公众强烈反响，互联网平台和法律层面均出现加强针对性监管与处罚的呼声。The discovery was made last week when Wen appeared to simultaneously host three different early morning livestream rooms on social media, wearing different outfits and promoting different products. The Wen "clones" looked and sounded strikingly similar to Wen, a feat that quickly ignited online discussion.上周，有网友发现温峥嵘疑似同时在社交媒体的三个不同直播间进行早间直播。画面中的“温峥嵘”身着不同服装、推广不同产品，其外貌和声音与本人高度相似，这一现象迅速引发网络热议。According to a China Media Group report on Wednesday, the forged images were produced either by clipping past videos and screen recordings or by taking earlier livestream footage of Wen and running it through AI-based deep synthesis, including voice alteration.据中央广播电视总台周三报道，这些伪造影像的制作方式主要有两种：一是剪辑过往视频和屏幕录制片段；二是提取温峥嵘早期直播素材，通过基于人工智能的深度合成技术（包括语音修改）进行处理。"These AI tactics confuse the public. My image and likeness have been infringed, and it is deeply hurtful," Wen said in the video report. She added that if viewers who trust her were misled into buyingcounterfeit goods, "I would feel truly sad."温峥嵘在视频报道中表示：“这些人工智能手段误导了公众，我的肖像权和人格权受到了侵犯，这让我深感痛心。”她还提到，若信任自己的观众因此被误导购买到假冒伪劣产品，“我会感到非常难过”。Li Ya, a partner at Zhongwen Law Firm in Beijing, told China Daily that such conduct was suspected of violating Wen's right of portrait and may also harm her right of reputation.北京中文律师事务所合伙人李亚向《中国日报》表示，此类行为涉嫌侵犯温峥嵘的肖像权，还可能损害其名誉权。Using someone's image for profit without authorization infringes on portrait rights, he said. "If sellers speak in her name and make false or exaggerated claims, that will negatively impact a public figure's reputation."李亚指出，未经授权使用他人肖像牟利构成肖像权侵权。“如果商家以她的名义进行虚假宣传或夸大宣传，将对公众人物的名誉造成负面影响。”Wen's team said that once the fake clips began circulating, they filed reports around the clock, flagging about 50 impersonation accounts in one day, according to CMG.据中央广播电视总台报道，温峥嵘团队表示，虚假片段传播后，他们立即展开24小时不间断投诉，单日就举报了约50个仿冒账号。Some livestreaming accounts were taken down, they said, but others quickly reappeared in new forms. Wen's staff noted that certain merchants can fabricate content by extracting brief footage and relying on AI functions built into video-editing apps, while the team faces a much higher burden to preserve evidence and defend their rights.温峥嵘团队称，部分直播账号已被下架，但另有一些账号很快以新形式重新出现。工作人员表示，部分商家只需提取简短素材，借助视频编辑软件内置的人工智能功能就能伪造内容，而团队维权时却面临着证据固定难、维权成本高的困境。Li said it is unrealistic to expect victims alone to safeguard their rights.李亚表示，仅靠受害者自身维权并不现实。"Rule-breaking merchants can open new accounts at will and face almost no cost for infringement," he added.李亚补充道：“违规商家可随意注册新账号，侵权成本几乎为零。”He noted that social platforms have a duty to deploy technology to detect whether AI tools are being used improperly in livestreams or short videos, and to penalize offending accounts as well as the operating companies and teams behind them, in order to prevent harm to third parties.他强调，社交平台有责任运用技术手段，检测直播或短视频中是否存在人工智能工具的不当使用行为。同时，平台需对违规账号及其背后的运营公司和团队进行处罚，以防范对第三方造成损害。In September, new regulations on labeling AI-generated synthetic content, released by the Cyberspace Administration of China and other agencies, took effect. The rules require clear "AI-generated" labels on synthetic faces and videos.今年9月，国家互联网信息办公室等部门发布的《生成式人工智能服务管理暂行办法》正式生效，其中明确要求对合成人脸、合成视频等内容标注“AI生成”字样。In practice, however, some merchants hide labels in obscure locations or mask them, allowing infringements to slip through reviews from the social platforms.但在实际执行中，部分商家将标注隐藏在隐蔽位置或进行遮挡，导致侵权行为逃过平台审核。"If a video lacks the necessary authorization and fails to show an AI-generation label, using someone else's face or voice in a livestream is atextbook case of infringement," Li said. "Victims can sue the merchant and even the platform, which bears responsibility for keeping online order."“若视频未经授权，且未标注AI生成标识，在直播中使用他人人脸或声音即属典型侵权行为。”李亚说，“受害者可起诉商家，甚至追究平台责任，因为平台负有维护网络秩序的义务。”On Thursday, Douyin's e-commerce safety and trust center said on its official social account that it had launched a special campaign in October targeting infringements. Those included cases where merchants or content creators, without permission, spliced videos, blended text, or used AI and digital effects to mimic celebrities for sales. The short-video platform's response to these actions included cutting livestreams, removing or banning involved products, freezing transaction proceeds, and ordering business suspensions, it said.周四，抖音电商安全与信任中心在其官方社交账号发布声明称，平台已于10月启动专项治理行动，重点打击各类侵权行为。其中包括商家或内容创作者未经授权，通过拼接视频、混合文本、运用人工智能及数字特效仿冒名人进行带货的行为。声明指出，平台针对此类行为采取的措施包括中断直播、下架或封禁相关商品、冻结交易款项、责令暂停经营等。Since the campaign began, the platform has acted against 11,000 creator accounts involved in impersonations and taken down more than 6,700 products, it said. In addition, more than 10,000 infrin

Authorities in Yunnan province said a 3-year-old boy seen crawling naked in a video which went viral online is in stable health and living safely with his parents, following an investigation that found no evidence of abuse, trafficking or illegal profit-making, according to China Central Television on Tuesday.中央电视台周二报道，云南省有关部门表示，经调查未发现虐待、拐卖或非法牟利证据，此前一段视频中裸身爬行的 3 岁男童目前健康状况稳定，正与父母安全生活。The boy, nicknamed Ping ping, was filmed on Oct 15 crawling unclothed at a highway service area in Shi mian county, Sichuan province, while his parents were on a family road trip.该男童小名平平（化名），10 月 15 日其父母驾车举家出行时，有人在四川省石棉县某高速公路服务区拍到他裸身爬行。The footage triggered a heated online debate, with questions raised over whether the child was being mistreated or even trafficked.这段视频引发网友热烈讨论，有人质疑孩子是否遭到虐待，甚至是否被拐卖。Local authorities in Nan jian county, Dali Bai autonomous prefecture, where the family resides, launched an investigation the following day along with provincial level officials.该家庭户籍地为大理白族自治州南涧县，当地部门于次日联合省级官员启动调查。The team found the family in Sichuan on Oct 18 and persuaded them to return home to Nan jian county on Oct 21. Medical professionals conducted physical and psychological assessments of the family, confirming that their two children were unharmed.10 月 18 日，调查组在四川找到该家庭，10 月 21 日劝说其返回南涧县家中。医疗专业人员对该家庭进行了身体和心理评估，确认两个孩子均未受伤害。Ping ping has since adapted well to daily routines, according to a local caregiver who has accompanied him since mid-October. Videos from a nearby kindergarten show him playing and laughing with other children.据 10 月中旬起陪伴平平（化名）的当地照护人员介绍，平平（化名）目前已很好地适应日常生活。附近幼儿园的视频显示，他正与其他孩子一起玩耍、欢笑。Officials also verified that Ping ping and his younger brother are the biological children of their parents, surnamed Li and Wan.工作人员还核实，平平（化名）与其弟弟均为李某、万某夫妇的亲生子女。The couple, who have not yet registered their marriage, have now received official birth certificates for the boys, and local authorities are processing household registration.这对夫妇尚未办理结婚登记，目前已为两个孩子领取了正式出生证明，当地部门正为其办理户口登记。Li explained that Ping ping had eczema and sometimes disliked wearing clothes in warm weather, adding that the boy's crawling behavior was a playful imitation of the family's pet dog, according to the CCTV report on Tuesday.据央视周二报道，李某解释称，平平（化名）患有湿疹，在天气暖和时有时不愿穿衣服；他还表示，孩子爬行的行为是在模仿家中宠物狗玩耍。viral音标：/ˈvaɪrəl/翻译：adj. （视频、信息等）在网上快速传播的；病毒的trafficking音标：/ˈtræfɪkɪŋ/翻译：n. 非法交易（尤指人口、毒品）eczema音标：/ˈeksɪmə/翻译：n. 湿疹（一种皮肤炎症）

China's sharpened focus on cultivating strategic emerging industries during the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-30) period will give fresh vitality to nurturing new quality productive forces and help the country better navigate external uncertainties while maintaining its edge amid global competition, said officials, experts and company executives.Their comments came as China plans to make more efforts to accelerate the development of emerging sectors such as new energy, new materials, aerospace and the low-altitude economy during the 15th Five-Year Plan period, according to the recently unveiled Recommendations of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China for Formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development.President Xi Jinping said the recommendations were initiated in line with the country's strategic development goals, recognizing the pivotal role of the next five years, and based on an in-depth analysis of both the domestic and global landscapes.Xi, who is also general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, said, "It is important that we seize this window of opportunity to consolidate and build on our strengths, remove development bottlenecks, shore up areas of weakness, seize the strategic initiative amid intense international competition, and secure major breakthroughs in strategic tasks of overall importance to Chinese modernization."The remarks were made in Xi's explanatory speech on the recommendations for formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan, delivered at the fourth plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, which concluded in Beijing in late October.Yao Jun, head of the department of planning at the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that "President Xi's speech is grounded in reality and forward-looking, and it has pointed the way forward for us in all our endeavors".According to Yao, the achievements during the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25) period have laid a solid foundation, and the strategic tasks proposed going forward are comprehensive and well-focused.Yao said, "We will anchor our work on developing new quality productive forces, driven by the deep integration of technological and industrial innovation."He added that the focus will be on intelligent, green and integrated development, moving manufacturing from scale expansion to value creation.Zhu Min, former deputy managing director of the International Monetary Fund, said the distinctive strength of China's economy lies in its strong real economy and industrial system."As China's technological capabilities continue to grow, the key challenge — and opportunity — is to effectively integrate these advancements to cultivate new industries driven by new quality productive forces. That's central to China's future economic trajectory," he said.Zhu also said such a trend is already mirrored in China's emphasis on strategic emerging industries such as new energy and the low-altitude economy. These sectors are poised for significant growth, built upon the robust momentum of China's "three new" economies — new industries, new business forms and new models — which already contributed over 18 percent to the country's GDP as of 2024, according to the National Development and Reform Commission.Zhu Keli, founding dean of the China Institute of New Economy, said, "China's goal of nurturing these frontier sectors not only reflects confidence in our own industrial capabilities but, more critically, serves as a key measure to seize the initiative in global sci-tech industrial competition."China has been the world's largest manufacturing country in terms of output for 15 consecutive years, and it ranks first globally in the output of over 220 industrial products, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology."Boasting such a complete industrial system, China provides rich application scenarios and enormous market potential for technological innovation, as well as solid support for the development of new industries," Zhu added.According to Zhu, emerging pillar industries, represented by the low-altitude economy, are now capable of driving growth momentum and are transitioning from "isolated breakthroughs" to "industrial-chain-wide expansion".Tian Gangyin, founder, chairman and president of the Chinese unmanned aerial vehicle developer United Aircraft, said the blueprint mapped out for the 15th Five-Year Plan period is "inspiring and motivating".Industrial-level drones are finding applications in a wide range of fields, such as emergency rescue work, power line patrolling, farming, and surveillance and security operations, he added.Aerospace is another strategic industry that China values, and in which companies are moving fast. Hainan International Commercial Aerospace Launch Co, for instance, plans to double its number of launch pads from two to four, and push forward rocket-recovery technology, marking a major step in the country's bid to build a globally competitive commerc

King Felipe VI of Spain arrived in Chengdu, the capital of southwestern China's Sichuan province, on Monday, kicking off his first state visit to China since he ascended the throne in 2014.西班牙国王费利佩六世于周一抵达中国西南部四川省省会成都，开启其2014年登基以来对中国的首次国事访问。He will also travel to Beijing to meet Chinese leaders. According to media reports, King Felipe VI, in each of the two cities, will participate in a business forum, focusing on strengthening economic ties and exploring collaborative opportunities between the two countries.他还将前往北京会见中国领导人。据媒体报道，费利佩六世国王将在两座城市分别出席商业论坛，聚焦加强两国经济联系、挖掘合作机遇。The four-day visit is also the first by a Spanish king to China in 18 years. He is accompanied by a high-level delegation, including Queen Letizia, Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares, and Minister of Economy, Trade and Business Carlos Cuerpo.此次为期四天的访问，也是18年来西班牙国王首次访华。随行的高级代表团包括王后莱蒂齐亚、外交大臣何塞・曼努埃尔・阿尔瓦雷斯以及经济、贸易与企业大臣卡洛斯・库尔波。Ahead of the visit, foreign ministries of both countries expressed hope of cementing the traditional friendship and further strengthening the political and economic ties amid the current complex global economic and trade landscape.访问前夕，两国均表示，在当前复杂的全球经贸格局下，希望巩固传统友谊，进一步加强政治和经济联系。Yao Jing, Chinese ambassador to Spain, told Xinhua News Agency that he believes that King Felipe VI's visit to China will contribute to advancing the comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries with stronger strategic resolve and development dynamism.中国驻西班牙大使姚敬在接受新华社采访时表示，相信费利佩六世国王访华将为两国全面战略伙伴关系注入更强劲的战略定力和发展动力，推动双边关系迈上新台阶。Economic and trade ties between China and Spain are highly complementary, demonstrating vitality and resilience, Yao said, citing the significant growth in bilateral trade in goods, which has increased from about $20 million when the two countries established diplomatic ties over 50 years ago to more than $50 billion in 2024.姚敬指出，中西经贸关系互补性强、富有活力且韧性十足。两国建交50多年来，双边货物贸易额从约2000万美元大幅增长至2024年的超500亿美元。Currently, China is Spain's largest trading partner outside the European Union, while Spain is one of China's key trading partners within the EU.目前，中国是西班牙在欧盟外的最大贸易伙伴，而西班牙是中国在欧盟内的主要贸易伙伴之一。The ambassador called for China and Spain to enhance the alignment of their development strategies and further explore the potential for collaboration.这位大使呼吁中西双方加强发展战略对接，进一步挖掘合作潜力。Wang Huiyao, founder and president of the Center for China and Globalization, a Beijing-based think tank, said the close China-Spain relationship is characterized by strong political mutual trust and frequent high-level interactions, including three visits to China by Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez in the past three years.北京智库全球化智库创始人兼理事长王辉耀表示，中西关系紧密，政治互信坚实，高层交往频繁——过去三年，西班牙首相佩德罗・桑切斯已三次访华。The frequent and friendly high-level interactions between the two countries will help enhance people-to-people exchanges and encourage Chinese companies to increase investment in Spain, Wang said.他称，两国频繁友好的高层互动将促进人文交流，鼓励中国企业加大对西班牙的投资。Wang said the visit would provide King Felipe VI with a more comprehensive image of China, as Chengdu — the king's first stop — is a burgeoning metropolis epitomizing China's transformative development in recent decades, particularly the nation's dynamic progress in its western regions.王辉耀表示，此次访问将让费利佩六世国王更全面地了解中国。国王此行的首站成都，是一座快速发展的大都市，集中体现了中国近几十年来的转型发展，尤其是西部地区的蓬勃进步。Citing China's recent extension of unilateral visa-exemption arrangements for Spain and other European countries, Wang said it is a prime example of initiatives that inject fresh growth momentum into China-Europe relations.他提到，中国近期对西班牙等欧洲国家延长单方面免签安排，这正是为中欧关系注入新增长动力的典型举措。He stressed that the China-Spain relationship is both a highlight and a stabilizing force in China's broader engagement with EU member states.他强调，中西关系是中国与欧盟成员国交往中的一大亮点，也是一股稳定力量。ascend/əˈsend/v.登基；上升；攀登cement/səˈment/v.巩固；加强；用水泥粘合burgeoning/ˈbɜːdʒənɪŋ/adj.快速发展的；蓬勃兴起的；茁壮成长的

As the white paper China released on Saturday underscores in its opening sentence, "Earth is the only home of all humanity, and tackling climate change and promoting sustainable development are vital to our survival and future".中国上周六发布的白皮书开篇即强调：“地球是全人类唯一的共同家园，应对气候变化、促进可持续发展关乎人类的生存与未来。”Released by the State Council Information Office two days after the opening of the 30th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in the Brazilian city of Belem, the paper reinforces that the country remains resolutely committed to the global climate cause.这份题为《碳达峰碳中和：中国的计划与解决方案》的白皮书，在联合国气候变化框架公约第三十次缔约方大会于巴西贝伦市开幕两天后，由国务院新闻办公室发布，重申了中国对全球气候事业的坚定承诺。Titled "Carbon Peaking andCarbon Neutrality: China's Plans and Solutions", the paper outlines the big progress the country has made so far in promoting itsgreen and low-carbon energy transition and its firm commitment to peaking carbon emissions before 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality before 2060.这份文件系统阐述了中国在推动绿色低碳能源转型方面取得的重大进展，以及2030年前实现碳达峰、2060年前实现碳中和的坚定目标。Thanks to its vigorous measures to substitute renewables for fossil fuels and establish a new energy and power system, China has made notable progress in its green and low-carbon energy transition. The percentage of nonfossil energy consumption increased from 16.0 percent in 2020 to 19.8 percent in 2024, the largest and fastest scaling up of clean energy worldwide. By the end of August 2025, the installed capacity of wind and photovoltaic power had surpassed 1,690 gigawatts, triple that of 2020 and accounting for about 80 percent of the country's newly installed power generation capacity since 2020. Meanwhile, it had 112 nuclear power units in operation, under construction, or approved for construction, with a combined installed capacity of 125 GW, ranking first in the world. Its installed capacity of biomass power generation reached 46.88 GW.通过大力推进可再生能源替代化石能源、建设新型能源体系和电力系统，中国在绿色低碳能源转型方面取得显著进展。非化石能源消费占比从2020年的16.0%提升至2024年的19.8%，清洁能源发展规模与速度稳居全球首位。截至2025年8月底，风力-光伏电力系统容量突破1690吉瓦，较2020年增长三倍，约占2020年以来全国新增发电装机容量的80%。同时，中国在运、在建及获批核电机组达112台，总装机容量125吉瓦，位居全球首位。生物质发电装机容量达到46.88吉瓦。The utilization of fossil energy has also become more efficient and efforts to improve the reliability and resilience of the power system are paying off as part of the country's implementation of major pathways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The achievements China has made should encourage others to pursue their own green transitions, as the global imperative to address climate change cannot be shouldered by any country single-handedly. It is a responsibility that must be borne collectively.在落实温室气体减排主要路径过程中，中国化石能源利用效率持续提升，电力系统可靠性和韧性增强成效显现。中国的成就有助于激励各国推进绿色转型。应对全球气候变化的重任绝非一国所能独担，而需共同肩负。China is willing to share its approaches, actions and experience in this regard to help other countries pursue their green transitions. The cooperation between China and its Belt and Road partners in green infrastructure, energy and transport, which continues to expand, and the financial, technological and capacity-building support it has provided to the best of its ability to countries of the Global South are testament to this.中国愿分享自身在绿色转型方面的思路、举措和经验，助力各国推进绿色转型。中国与“一带一路”沿线合作国家在绿色基础设施、能源和交通领域的合作持续扩大，中国尽己所能为全球南方国家提供资金、技术和能力建设支持，这些都印证了中国的承诺。The year 2025 marks the 10th anniversary of the Paris Agreement. Over the past decade, green and low-carbon development has become an unstoppable trend. But only through concrete measures and solid actions can we turn the goals to tackle climate challenges into reality. Reinforcing the country's resolute commitment to action, President Xi Jinping announced China's 2035 Nationally Determined Contributions at the UN Climate Summit on Sept 24, setting the clear target of reducing economy-wide net greenhouse gas emissions by 7 percent to 10 percent from peak levels, and striving to do better.2025年是《巴黎协定》签署十周年。过去十年间，绿色低碳发展已成为不可逆转的趋势。但唯有通过具体措施和切实行动，才能将应对气候挑战的目标转化为现实。为彰显中国坚定不移的行动承诺，习近平主席于9月24日在联合国气候峰会上宣布了中国2035年国家自主贡献目标，明确提出将全国范围温室气体净排放量在达峰后较峰值降低7%至10%，并力争做得更好。To this end, China is mobilizing both the government and the market, intensifying technological and institutional innovation, and accelerating the green and low-carbon technological revolution, under its "1+N" policy framework, in which the "1" stands for the top-level design and guiding principles and the "N" is the action plans for implementing these overarching directives in key sectors, industries and administrative districts.为此，中国正通过“1+N”政策体系（“1”指顶层设计和总体要求，“N”指重点领域、行业和地区的实施方案），调动政府与市场力量，强化科技和制度创新，加速推进绿色低碳技术革命。In stark contrast to China's contribution to the global climate cause, the United States has been backpedaling on its climate commitments recently. Despite the fact that its total historical greenhouse gas emissions are the largest in the world, and the country's per capita emissions are the highest, the US has taken major steps backward and severely undermined global climate governance efforts by twice withdrawing from the Paris

With southern China's culture and cross-regional integration presented in a visual spectacle, a gala ceremony left the entire Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area stoked on Sunday as President Xi Jinping declared the 15th National Games open in Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong province.上周日，习近平主席在广东省省会广州宣布第十五届全国运动会开幕。这场盛典以视觉盛宴的形式展现了中国南方文化与区域协同发展成果，让整个粤港澳大湾区为之沸腾。Launched in 1959 to promote mass sports participation, China's National Games have opened a new chapter with the groundbreaking 2025 edition, being jointly held for the first time in Guangdong province and the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions. The 15th National Games kicked off with great fanfare, celebrating their influence in pulling the Greater Bay Area further together, not just in sports exchanges but also in terms of cultural and economic cohesion.全国运动会始于1959年，旨在推动群众体育参与。2025年第十五届全运会开创性地由广东省与香港、澳门特别行政区首次联合承办，为这一赛事翻开了崭新篇章。本届全运会的盛大开幕，不仅彰显了其在促进大湾区体育交流中的作用，更在文化融合与经济联结层面推动大湾区进一步凝聚，意义深远。After overseeing the parade of athletes and a series of ceremonial rituals, Xi announced the opening of the domestic sporting gala — held once every four years with a competition program similar to that of the Olympics — to rousing cheers from the crowd of over 80,000 at Guangdong Olympic Sports Center Stadium.在检阅运动员方阵、见证一系列仪式环节后，习近平主席宣布这一国内体育盛会正式开幕。全运会每四年举办一届，竞赛项目设置与奥运会相近，现场8万余名观众在广东奥林匹克体育中心体育场内爆发出热烈欢呼。Before attending the ceremony, Xi met on Sunday afternoon in Guangzhou with individuals and representatives of various sports groups, who were honored as role models of mass fitness and competitive sports promotion.开幕仪式前，习近平主席于周日下午在广州会见了获评群众健身与竞技体育推广模范的个人及各类体育团体代表。Kirsty Coventry, the new president of the International Olympic Committee and Thomas Bach, the IOC's honorary president for life, were among guests at the opening ceremony.国际奥委会新任主席柯丝蒂・考文垂与国际奥委会终身名誉主席托马斯・巴赫出席了开幕式。As the largest edition of the games, in numbers of participants and host cities, the Greater Bay Area games feature 419 medal events across 34 sports, involving over 14,000 professional athletes on its competitive program. A parallel mass sports program has also engaged more than 1 million amateurs in preliminary rounds of 166 events since February.本届全运会是参赛人数最多、主办城市最广的一届：竞赛项目涵盖34个大项、419个奖牌项目，有1.4万余名专业运动员参赛；同步开展的群众体育项目自今年2月起已举办166个项目的预选赛，吸引超100万名业余爱好者参与。As an early highlight of the night, a joint delegation of athletes representing Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao marched together at the end of the athletes' parade, drawing warm applause from the crowd.当晚的一大亮点出现在运动员入场仪式尾声——粤港澳联合代表团共同入场，赢得现场观众热烈掌声。As part of an extensive display of the history and culture of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, the opening ceremony presented traditional activities and art, ranging from dragon boat racing and lion dances to drum and gong performances in an intriguingly immersive fashion, enhanced by modern technology and dazzling audiovisual effects.开幕式以极具沉浸感的方式，结合现代科技与绚丽视听效果，集中展示了粤港澳三地的历史文化，呈现了龙舟竞渡、舞狮、锣鼓表演等传统活动与艺术形式。The lion dancers brought the crowd to its feet, taking advantage of virtual reality technology that made the performance even more spectacular, before the racing dragon boats drew "oohs" and "aahs" from spectators who, aided by augmented reality technology, felt as if the boats were being paddled into the crowd.舞狮表演借助虚拟现实技术，场面愈发壮观，引得观众起立喝彩；随后的龙舟竞渡环节，在增强现实技术的助力下，观众仿佛看到龙舟向自己驶来，纷纷发出惊叹。During the jubilant performances, iconic landmarks, such as Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour, the Ruins of St. Paul's in Macao and the Canton Tower in Guangzhou, took shape as 3D background projections, showcasing unique attractions of the Greater Bay Area's past and present.在热烈的表演过程中，香港维多利亚港、澳门大三巴牌坊、广州塔等标志性建筑以3D背景投影形式呈现，展现了粤港澳大湾区古今交融的独特魅力。Huang Kunming, a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and Party chief of Guangdong province, delivered a speech in which he extended his warm welcome to all participants.中共中央政治局委员、广东省委书记黄坤明致辞，向全体参与者表示热烈欢迎。"The National Games being held together by Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao will write a new chapter of the integrated development of the Greater Bay Area. We will play a generous host to present a streamlined, safe and splendid sporting extravaganza," he said.他指出：“粤港澳三地共同承办全运会，将书写大湾区协同发展的新篇章。我们将当好东道主，呈现一届简约、安全、精彩的体育盛会。”Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu and Macao Chief Executive Sam Hou-fai both pledged to build on the games' momentum to further facilitate sports, cultural and economic collaborations across the Greater Bay Area.香港特别行政区行政长官李家超与澳门特别行政区行政长官贺一诚均表示，将借全运会东风，进一步推动粤港澳大湾区在体育、文化、经济领域的合作。"This 15th edition not only represents an innovation of the National Games, but also accelerates Hong Kong's integration into the overall development of the country," Lee said in his speech.李家超在致辞中表示：“第十五届全运会不仅是全运会的一次创新，更将加速香港融入国家发展大局。”Sam said the games "will help build a brighter future of the GBA as yet another example of the significance of the 'one country, two systems' policy".贺一诚则指出：“本届全运会将为大湾区建设更美好的未来注入动力，是‘一国两制’实践意义的又一生动

The most important task for the crew of the CNS Fujian — China's third aircraft carrier and the world's largest conventionally powered warship — is to conduct in-depth testing and additional trial runs of its equipment, according to the ship's captain.中国第三艘航空母舰、全球最大常规动力战舰——福建舰的舰长表示，该舰全体船员当前的核心任务是对装备进行深入测试和补充试航。Senior Captain Chen Zhi guo told State broadcaster China Central Television on Saturday that he will lead the crew to further test the vessel's capabilities. At the same time, they will make all-out efforts to prepare for the full-scale deployment of aircraft squadrons and to build joint combat capacity with other assets in the carrier strike group, he said.上周六，陈志国大校在接受中央广播电视总台采访时称，他将带领船员进一步检验舰艇性能。同时，全体船员将全力推进舰载机中队全面部署准备工作，构建航母打击群与其他作战力量的联合作战能力。"I'm convinced that, following the development path guided by President Xi Jin ping, we, the crew of the Fujian, will 'cleave through the waves' to complete our missions set by the Party and the people," Chen said.“我坚信，在习近平主席指引的发展道路上，我们福建舰全体官兵将劈波斩浪，完成党和人民赋予的各项任务。”陈志国说。The Fujian is the first aircraft carrier in the People's Liberation Army Navy equipped with a cutting-edge electromagnetic catapult system. It is also the largest, heaviest and most powerful naval vessel ever built in the Eastern Hemisphere.福建舰是中国人民解放军海军首艘配备尖端电磁弹射系统的航母，也是东半球有史以来建造的吨位最大、体量最重、战力最强的海军舰艇。The gigantic ship, which displaces more than 80,000 metric tons of water, entered service on Wednesday at a naval base in Sanya, Hainan province.这艘排水量超过8万吨的巨舰于周三在海南三亚某海军基地正式入列服役。Senior Captain Leng Guo wei, a spokesman for the Navy, said on Saturday that Sanya will be the supercarrier's home base due to factors including strategic demand, port conditions, support capacity and mission requirements.海军发言人冷国伟大校上周六表示，综合战略需求、港口条件、保障能力和任务需要等因素，三亚将成为这艘超级航母的母港。He said the Fujian will be sent to oceans far from China on a regular basis and added that it will not be long before the full-scale deployment of aircraft squadrons begins on the supercarrier.他透露，福建舰将定期前出远海执行任务，且舰载机中队全面部署已为期不远。Leng said the development and improvement of China's weaponry do not target any country or specific objective, nor will they pose a threat to any country or region. The efforts are solely aimed at safeguarding China's sovereignty, security and development interests.冷国伟强调，中国武器装备的发展不针对任何国家或特定目标，也不会对任何国家或地区构成威胁，完全是为了维护中国的主权、安全和发展利益。"Regarding China's follow-up development plans for aircraft carriers, they will be comprehensively considered based on national defense needs," Leng said. "It is important to emphasize that our country's nature as a socialist country, its strategic choice of taking the path of peaceful development, and its independent, peaceful foreign policy determine that we will never abandon our defensive national defense policy."“关于中国后续航母发展计划，将根据国防需求统筹考虑。”冷国伟说，“需要着重指出的是，中国社会主义国家的性质、走和平发展道路的战略抉择以及独立自主的和平外交政策，决定了我们永远不会放弃防御性国防政策。”An industry insider in China's shipbuilding sector, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the Fujian's commissioning "means the PLA Navy has entered the three-carrier club and is theoretically capable of deploying a carrier strike group anytime it wants. That also means the Navy's long-range operational capability is far stronger than before."一位不愿具名的中国造船业业内人士表示，福建舰的入列“标志着中国海军正式跻身‘三航母俱乐部’，理论上具备随时部署航母打击群的能力，这也意味着海军的远程作战能力较以往有了质的飞跃”。conventionallyadv.常规地；按惯例地/kənˈvenʃənəli/catapultn.（航空母舰的）弹射器/ˈkætəpʌlt/deploymentn.部署；调度/dɪˈplɔɪmənt/

Taller and heavier, but still as precise as she has ever been, China's diving sensation Quan Hong chan refuses to be written off at the elite level just yet as she overcomes severe physical challenges to shine at the 15th National Games.如今的全红婵身形更高、体重更重，但依旧精准如初。这位中国跳水巨星克服重重身体挑战，在第十五届全运会上闪耀赛场，证明自己仍未退出顶尖行列。The nation's quadrennial sporting extravaganza, which has kicked off some of its 419 medal events before Sunday's official opening ceremony, is being held across boundaries for the first time — in Guangdong province and the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions.这场四年一度的全国体育盛会，在周日正式开幕前已率先启动419个奖牌项目中的部分赛事。本届全运会首次跨区域举办，覆盖广东省以及香港、澳门特别行政区。After being sidelined from competitions for about half a year due to injuries, Quan, a three-time Olympic gold winner, has returned to the spotlight amid doubts about her current level of preparedness and her future in international competitions, particularly her chances of making it to the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.作为三届奥运冠军得主，全红婵因伤缺席赛事近半年。回归公众视野之际，外界对她目前的备战状态、国际赛事前景尤其是2028年洛杉矶奥运会的参赛可能性充满疑虑。She is no longer the petite 14-year-old who, at the 2020 Tokyo Games, became one of the youngest Chinese divers to win an Olympic gold, or the more mature teenager who clinched gold twice at the 2024 Paris Games. Her larger body frame and six-month hiatus notwithstanding, Quan, now 18, has maintained the striking quality of her dives.她不再是2020年东京奥运会上那个年仅14岁、成为中国最年轻跳水奥运冠军之一的小姑娘，也不是2024年巴黎奥运会上两夺金牌的成熟少年。尽管如今18岁的她体型变化明显，且阔别赛场半年，但其跳水动作的超高水准依然保持不变。The teen master of the "splash-disappearing technique", which refers to her delicate body control to keep water splashes at the minimum during a dive, delivered once again on Sunday.这位擅长“水花消失术”的少年名将，凭借对身体的精妙控制将跳水时的水花降到最小，在周日的比赛中再度展现了这一绝技。In the women's synchronized 10-meter platform diving team event, Quan made a strong return, partnering with newcomer Wang Wei ying. The duo displayed remarkable synchronicity and composure, earning a top combined score over three rounds and securing the first gold medal in diving for Team Guangdong, successfully defending its National Games title.在女子双人10米台决赛中，全红婵与新秀王伟莹搭档强势回归。两人配合默契、沉着冷静，三轮比赛后总分位居榜首，为广东队斩获跳水项目首金，成功卫冕全运会该项目冠军。Quan's home crowd at the Guangdong Olympic Sports Center Swimming and Diving Hall welcomed her with the loudest cheers, while her legion of social media fans — around 3.75 million on Sina Weibo — celebrated her comeback online.在广东奥林匹克体育中心游泳跳水馆，主场观众为全红婵送上了最热烈的欢呼。她在新浪微博上的约375万粉丝也在网上为其回归喝彩。The hashtag "Quan Hong chan returns to win" garnered nearly 62 million views on Weibo as of Thursday, and she was among the top trending topics related to the National Games on social media.截至周四，“全红婵回归夺冠”的话题在微博上的阅读量接近6200万，她也跻身全运会相关社交媒体热搜榜前列。"I am awesome," Quan herself posted an encouragement on Weibo following Guangdong's team victory.“我超棒的！”广东队夺冠后，全红婵在微博上发文为自己鼓劲。Quan's impressive form despite her injuries signals that she is far from retirement.尽管饱受伤病困扰，全红婵依旧保持着出色状态，这表明她远未到退役之时。Referring to the prospect of diving against her star teammate in the individual event at the 2028 Olympics, Quan's partner Wang said, "I hope I can be her rival. Apparently, she's not recovered to her best form yet, but I hope she will continue working hard on her way back to the peak."谈及2028年奥运会个人项目中与这位明星队友同场竞技的可能性，搭档王伟莹表示：“我希望能成为她的对手。显然她还没恢复到最佳状态，但我期待她能继续努力，重返巅峰。”In 2021, Quan became a household name after winning the 10m platform gold at the Tokyo Olympics, which was deferred because of the COVID-19 pandemic. She redefined the benchmark of elite diving by effortlessly pulling off some of the world's most difficult dives.2021年，因新冠疫情延期举办的东京奥运会上，全红婵夺得10米台金牌，一举成名。她轻松完成多项世界最高难度动作，重新定义了精英跳水的标杆。The pull of gravity felt stronger as Quan grew at least 15 centimeters taller and 10 kilograms heavier by the time of the Paris Olympics. However, she beat the challenges with countless extra hours on her fitness program, which eventually paid rich dividends. Quan edged out national teammate Chen Yu xi to retain her individual title in Paris, and added a third career Olympic gold in the synchro event with Chen.到巴黎奥运会时，全红婵身高至少增长了15厘米，体重增加了10公斤，感受到的地心引力也随之增大。但她通过额外投入无数时间进行体能训练克服了这些挑战，最终收获丰硕成果。在巴黎，全红婵险胜国家队队友陈芋汐，成功卫冕个人项目冠军，并与陈芋汐搭档再夺双人项目金牌，职业生涯奥运金牌数增至三枚。Quan will miss another duel against Chen, who is representing Shanghai, in Monday's individual final, because she hasn't signed up for the event to keep the intensity of her return in check.由于为控制复出强度未报名参加单人项目，全红婵将错过周一与代表上海队出战的陈芋汐的再度对决，后者是该项目的夺冠热门。He Wei yi, head coach of the Guangdong diving team, said that Quan has overcome tougher-than-expected challenges to make it to the National Games. "She is competing while still nursing injuries to her (right) tibia and ankle joints, and her body has kinesiology tapes all over to protect her muscles from overstretching," he said. "It's extremely tough for her, as she endures severe pain every day. She has to apply ice packs to her leg between each round during both practice and competitions."广东跳水队主教练何威仪表示，全红婵为参加全运会克服了超出预期

Starbucks Coffee Co announced on Tuesday that it has sold a majority stake in its China business to Boyu Capital, a leading Chinese investment firm, forming a joint venture that will operate Starbucks' retail operations in the country. The move marks a major step in the coffee chain's next phase of growth in its fastest-expanding market. 周二，星巴克咖啡公司宣布，已将其中国业务的大部分股权出售给中国领先投资机构博裕资本，双方将成立一家合资企业，运营星巴克在中国的零售业务。此举标志着这家咖啡连锁企业在其增长最快的市场中，迈出了下一阶段发展的重要一步。Under the agreement, Boyu Capital will acquire up to a 60 percent stake in Starbucks' China retail operations based on a cash-free, debt-free enterprise value of about $4 billion, while the US coffee chain will retain a 40 percent stake. Starbucks will continue to own and license its brand and intellectual property to the new entity.Starbucks estimates the total value of its China retail business will exceed $13 billion, reflecting proceeds from the stake sale, the retained equity interest and the net present value of ongoing licensing payments over the next decade or longer.根据协议，以约40亿美元的无现金、无债务企业估值计算，博裕资本将收购星巴克中国零售业务高达60%的股权，而这家美国咖啡连锁企业将保留40%的股权。星巴克将继续拥有其品牌及知识产权，并将其授权给新成立的实体使用。星巴克估计，其中国零售业务的总价值将超过130亿美元，这一估值涵盖了股权出售所得、持有的股权价值，以及未来十年或更长时间内持续授权费用的净现值。The JV, headquartered in Shanghai, underscores Starbucks' long-term confidence in the Chinese market, where it has operated for more than 26 years and currently runs about 8,000 stores.这家总部位于上海的合资企业，凸显了星巴克对中国市场的长期信心。星巴克已在中国运营超过26年，目前在中国拥有约8000家门店。The company said the partnership aims to expand that footprint to as many as 20,000 locations over time, tapping into demand from smaller cities and emerging regions.星巴克表示，该合作旨在逐步将其在中国的门店数量扩大至2万家，以挖掘三四线城市及新兴地区的市场需求。"Boyu's deep local knowledge and expertise will help accelerate our growth in China, especially as we expand into smaller cities and new regions," said Brian Niccol, chairman and CEO of Starbucks Coffee Co.星巴克董事长兼首席执行官布莱恩・尼科尔表示：“博裕资本深厚的本土经验与专业知识，将助力我们加快在中国的增长步伐，尤其是在我们向中小城市及新区域扩张的过程中。”According to consultancy Euromonitor International, China's specialty coffee and tea shop market reached 132.5 billion yuan ($18.6 billion) in 2024 and is forecast to rise to 273.9 billion yuan by 2029, representing a compound annual growth rate of 13.5 percent.根据欧睿国际咨询公司的数据，2024年中国特色咖啡及茶饮店市场规模达到1325亿元人民币（约合186亿美元），预计到2029年将增至2739亿元人民币，复合年增长率达13.5%。Despite this, Starbucks' market share has slipped in recent years, ranking second behind Luckin Coffee in 2025. Luckin's second-quarter revenue surged 47.1 percent year-on-year to 12.36 billion yuan, while its net profit grew 43.6 percent to 1.25 billion yuan. By the end of June, Luckin's total store count reached 26,206, including nearly 9,300 franchised locations.尽管市场整体增长态势良好，但近年来星巴克的市场份额有所下滑。2025年，其市场排名已落后于瑞幸咖啡，位居第二。瑞幸咖啡第二季度营收同比增长47.1%，达123.6亿元人民币，净利润同比增长43.6%，至12.5亿元人民币。截至6月底，瑞幸咖啡门店总数已达26206家，其中包括近9300家特许经营门店。Starbucks' performance, however, has shown signs of improvement this year. For the quarter ended Sept 28, Starbucks China reported revenue of about $831.6 million, up 5 percent year-on-year, with both the operating profit and profit margin rising for four consecutive quarters.不过，今年星巴克的业绩已显现出改善迹象。在截至9月28日的季度中，星巴克中国营收约为8.316亿美元，同比增长5%，营业利润及利润率已连续四个季度实现增长。Reports of Starbucks' plan to sell a stake in its China business surfaced earlier this year.
