Food Planning | new york Food Forward ④: Let food promote economy and employment.

In February, 2021, new york Mayor’s Food Policy Office released the first 10-year food policy plan "NYC: A 10-year food policy plan". This series consists of seven articles, translated by the team of "the other mountains all appear dwarfs under the sky.-Sustainable City and Transportation". This is the fourth article, which introduces the second goal of new york’s ten-year food policy plan: to make new york’s food economy promote economic development and provide good jobs.

New york has more than 40,000 food enterprises, employing hundreds of thousands of workers. It is difficult to calculate the exact number of workers, because there is no reliable data to explain the number of workers in the "gig economy" in food distribution. These workers and enterprises are vital to the health and well-being of new york people. The food industry is an important source of employment and property income for colored people and immigrant communities (79% of food workers in new york are colored people, including 43% Latinos and 21% Asians).

The catering industry is also very important to the city, because it is the main attraction of residents, workers and tourists, supporting many other industries, such as office employment in the central business district and attracting tourists. In fact, the catering industry is the key to making new york so attractive. Its economic contribution is also great. In 2019, the taxable sales of the catering industry reached nearly $27 billion.

However, working in the food industry or owning a business is extremely challenging. The food industry usually has a low profit margin, while the cost of running a business in new york is high. About 99% of food enterprises in the city are small enterprises with less than 100 workers, while 70% are micro enterprises with less than 10 workers. In addition, the wages of food workers are usually low, and they lack job security and mobility opportunities. Many deliverymen (an increasingly important part of the food industry) are considered as independent contract workers and cannot get the same protection and benefits as employees.

If new york wants to improve its food system, it must first support both food workers and food enterprises. The support for the two is not mutually exclusive, but mutually reinforcing. These strategies also focus on the future of food enterprises, including supporting a new ownership model that conforms to the principles of economic democracy and technological change.

Size of food enterprises in new york (calculated by number of employees). Cartography: the other mountains all appear dwarfs under the sky., the picture is from NYC Food Forward, only translated in Chinese.

Strategy 1: Protect the rights and interests of food practitioners 

Implementing fair scheduling method in fast food industry

New york will strictly implement the fast food fair scheduling laws, so as to optimize the fast food industry into a benign occupation with stable and predictable working hours and wages. Strong law enforcement will ensure that workers in fast food restaurants can arrange shifts fairly and even get overtime pay when the shift schedule is temporarily changed. Law enforcement will also ensure that workers in the fast food industry can settle down through regular shifts in high-mobility industries.

Provide financial and technical support for workers’ cooperatives

The cooperative model has a long history in the food field. Worker-owned cooperatives have yet to become a powerful tool for new york to accumulate assets and eliminate the gap between the rich and the poor. In order to meet the needs of food enterprises, new york will not only coordinate existing auxiliary projects to support cooperatives, such as Employee Ownership, but also explore innovative financial and technical support projects.

When it is not appropriate for the government to directly intervene in enterprises, the New York City Government will also explore cooperation with community-based organizations, business improvement areas (BID) and merchant associations, and provide support for cooperative organization efforts in five administrative regions.

Improve the situation of food workers.

New york will promote a series of state and federal bills to improve the situation of workers in the food industry, as listed below:

(1) Ensure that all employees in the food industry are included in the federal and state welfare plans;

(2) For employers who fail to protect workers’ health, abolish relevant laws that limit their responsibilities;

(3) Change the state regulations on tip pool sharing, and expand the scope of employees who participate in tip sharing, so that employees without tips can also get some sharing;

(4) To cope with emergencies, set up a hazard pay for grass-roots food workers.

Provide support to practitioners of food programs.

New york will make efforts to provide support to practitioners of food programs. Under the circumstance that the purchasing power is restricted by the current laws, new york will first ensure that food suppliers abide by the current labor laws and collect more labor-related information from food suppliers. In addition, new york will promote the revision of applicable laws and use food procurement power to optimize the working conditions of food practitioners.

Expand child care services to solve the problem of night care for children of food practitioners.

During the COVID-19 crisis, new york deeply realized the hard work and important role of food practitioners. Child care has been provided through the Regional Enrichment Centers "and child care programs throughout the city. With the gradual recovery of the city, existing facilities for childcare projects will be expanded or new projects will be created, including night and weekend care, which is the time when children need care most and parents are most inconvenient to take care of. Providing night and weekend child care will enable parents who often work at night and weekend classes to improve their work flexibility and reduce the cost of childcare.

Feasibility study on developing basic social security benefits

New york will conduct a feasibility study on the basic social security benefits for all food workers. This study will explore the potential partnerships among food practitioners, enterprises, community organizations and financial institutions. This project focuses on providing welfare protection such as pension and medical insurance for food practitioners. New york will also push the federal government to introduce a bill to provide full and fair social security benefits for all employees, regardless of their employers, workplaces or job nature.

Strategy 2: Simplify the process, encourage innovation and support small food enterprises.

Promote tax credits for small businesses.

New york will promote state legislation and establish a tax deduction mechanism for small businesses, including the food industry, to promote the recovery of small businesses in new york. Eligible enterprises with a total income of less than $1 million will receive a tax credit of 6% of their rent in 2021, with a maximum tax credit of $10,000.

Simplify the related processes of food enterprises

New york will review the regulations and enforcement procedures related to small food enterprises (including street vendors) to streamline the process. New york will improve efficiency as much as possible, and expand consolidated licensing and inspection services, so that simplified processes can benefit start-up and existing small food enterprises. The municipal government will also carry out innovation in matters related to food enterprises and increase opportunities for participation, especially cooperation with immigrant organizations.

Support the food enterprises of new york Housing Bureau.

New york will cooperate with enterprises and community organizations to expand the Food Business Pathways of new york Housing Bureau (NYCHA). The establishment of the Business Accelerator Program aims to enable residents of the public housing development project of new york Housing Bureau and those who hold the Class 8 housing clause subsidy voucher of new york Housing Bureau (note: the subsidy voucher program was established in 1978 to provide assistance to eligible low-and middle-income families in renting houses from private hands) to start and develop food business.

Promote the protection of food property and customer data.

The successful operation of food business relies more and more on the data of third-party providers. However, food enterprises often lack professional knowledge or the ability to use these services on favorable terms, and may not be able to obtain key information such as customer data. New york has convened a number of stakeholders to jointly promote initiatives to protect the data of food enterprises and customers, such as the "data bill of rights" for food enterprises and customers.

Support the needs of food enterprises and cooperatives

New york will convene stakeholders in the food industry to identify and design new projects to meet the special demands of food enterprises and non-profit organizations. New york City will then promote the effective implementation of these projects by the state and federal governments. This may include developing new financing and technical assistance programs to help mutual-help and self-operated workers’ cooperatives and small food enterprises.

Suppliers are more likely to participate in the urban procurement process.

New york will promote the smooth connection between potential food suppliers and the urban procurement process. PASSPort, a digital procurement portal in new york, will launch new functions to improve the procurement process. Including: simplifying the collection process, speeding up the issuance of invoices, improving transparency more widely and promoting cross-departmental cooperation.

In addition, new york will explore ways: using matchmaking tools and group buying strategies to increase the number of bids for urban food contracts; Expand technical support and guide the procurement process; Provide process navigator to assist small suppliers in the procurement bidding process; And explore to simplify the application process of M/WBE (note: M/WBE: minority and women-owned business enterprises, enterprises owned, operated and controlled by ethnic minorities and women).

Strategy 3: Help the next generation of food workers get high-quality jobs.

Launch a community recruitment plan for the food industry.

New york will use the current new york NYC plan and the proposed Community HireNYC Legislation to expand the recruitment demand, and set up good entry-level posts in the whole food procurement process, including food production, distribution, transportation and other related work.

New york will combine the existing and new training plans to provide human resources for suppliers, and require suppliers to provide interviews and employment opportunities for qualified low-income people. New york will also cooperate with anchor institutions to expand the number of high-quality entry-level jobs in food procurement, and pay special attention to core institutions in underserved communities.

Support food technology vocational training

New york’s partners in catering, manufacturing and industry will continue to keep pace with the technological upgrading of the industry. These partners will provide advice to small business service organizations (SBS) on the development of specific labor force and provide new technology training programs for industry practitioners. This can ensure that employees are at the forefront of technological change and that they learn new skills at work, rather than being replaced by new technologies.

Create and expand the career path of food practitioners

New york will ensure the prospect and "Qian Jing" of food industry, both warehouse workers and kitchen staff can be developed, and provide more training, certification and business plans for food practitioners.

Listed below:

(i) Expand training and entrepreneurship programs for commercial kitchens, such as the First Course NYC and Food Business Pathways in new york;

(ii) providing English as a Second Language services for non-native English-speaking food workers;

(iii) Cooperating with the industry to provide the US Department of Energy (DOE) vocational and technical education courses for practitioners in food production, processing, storage and distribution processes;

(iv) Linking youth training programmes with career paths;

(v) Explore the curriculum options of NYC Health Department’s Health Academy of new york Municipal Health Bureau, which is a labor force development center that provides food safety training for food practitioners.

Make a development plan for campus food practitioners

To provide the healthiest and freshest food for students in new york, well-trained practitioners are essential. New york will cooperate with academic circles and the private sector to provide accurate and comprehensive training courses for all school food managers. Training topics include but are not limited to: leadership skills, storage and organization, knife skills, use of tools and equipment, basic cooking skills, menu planning and food preparation. New york will also make an in-depth analysis of the current training programs to see if it is necessary to upgrade.

  As the greatest industrial product in the 20th century, automobiles have greatly changed people’s lives, expanded their travel radius, brought great convenience to people and improved their quality of life. Everything is a double-edged sword, and life on wheels has both advantages and disadvantages.

The cruising range of NEDC is 130km, 200km and 335km for top models with different battery capacity.

Nearly 1,200 Hong Kong police officers were subjected to "human flesh search" and the instigators were arrested.

[Text/Observer Network Guo Han]

During the riots and conflicts in the past month or so, the Hong Kong police devoted themselves to their duties and exercised professional restraint, which became the last barrier to maintaining public order and defending the rule of law.

However, activists’ acts of stigmatizing the police and cyberbullying have intensified: some teachers have viciously cursed police children, and nearly 1,200 police officers’ personal data have been leaked by criminals, which has caused great troubles to the lives of the parties and their families.

In addition, the account also claimed that it "has a mole informant in the police force and major Hong Kong media", and its administrator claimed to be overseas and provoked the police to "have the ability to fly abroad to arrest me".

Superintendent Mo Junjie of Cybersecurity and Technology Crime Bureau of Hong Kong Police informed the media about the disclosure of police personal data.

Among them, the most notorious is a channel called "Old Bean" on an instant messaging software Telegram. Because of the encryption of its server, Telegram has become an online contact point for Hong Kong extremists to hook up with each other and conduct "human flesh search" on Hong Kong police and other related people.

Verified by Observer Network, this channel was established on July 7th. Since July 15th, the number of subscriptions and views has soared. At present, 74,000 subscribers have posted 911 photos, 21 videos and 26 documents, most of which are personal information of police officers and their families.

The channel manager and main information publisher is an account with the user name "Laodou Yizai", which means "father seeking son" in Cantonese, which is insulting to the police and other relevant searched people. The account claims that the team "has more than 50 people, all of whom have settled in the United States, Canada, Britain and other places".

Its operation mode is: firstly, upload photos of police officers’ faces taken by the media or protesters at the scene, then confirm the identity of police officers through face recognition and "human flesh search" and disclose their personal information: from job number and contact information to family background and family photos, the level of detail is chilling.

Screenshot of related channel release information

Because "the face recognition department needs a lot of data", the account suggested that members take photos at the entrance of the police dormitory, and emphasized that "each person has two more angles". In addition, the channel also uses vicious language to attack and threaten police officers and their families, claiming that its purpose is "the disaster will reach his wife and children".

With the outbreak of street violence, the addresses and contact information of a number of senior police officers have been exposed one after another, including Commissioner of Police Stephen Lo, Deputy Director Deng Bingqiang and British Chief Superintendent Tao Hui.

It is worth mentioning that the account once claimed that it "has a mole informant in the police force and major Hong Kong media". In addition, its contents include "teaching" in making incendiary bombs, using slingshots and hiding portable knives.

On August 1, the Hong Kong police released a video to introduce the situation that the police information was "bottomed out". Superintendent Liu Zhaobang revealed that since June 9, the personal data of more than 1,200 police officers and their families have been leaked on the Internet.

Insult words were posted on the door of a police officer’s house, and personal data were taken to borrow money from a financial company, which made family members very worried and worried every day. What’s more, even the photos of young children of police officers were made public, and some netizens threatened to "pick up their children from school".

Superintendent Liu reiterated that these acts may violate the crimes of "using computers with criminal or dishonest intentions", "criminal intimidation" or violation of privacy regulations, and the police will never tolerate them.

On Friday (2nd), Hong Kong police arrested three men on suspicion of inciting others to commit public nuisance and fraud. One of the suspects was involved in using the illegally leaked information of police officers to apply for a loan online, but fortunately it was not successful.

Mo Junjie, Superintendent of Cyber Security and Technology Crime Bureau, said that in view of the recent radical remarks on the Internet, which instigated others to make offensive weapons, contain buildings, and even attack others, and caused nuisance and intimidation to police officers and their families, the police reminded young people not to break the law.

The administrator account did not forget to provoke the police while forwarding the above news, emphasizing that he was overseas and "had the ability to fly abroad to arrest me".

The channel released photos, trying to prove that the administrator took screenshots abroad.

According to a report in Ming Pao last Sunday (28th), the Hong Kong police arrested a 29-year-old man surnamed Zhang in a shopping mall on 25th on suspicion of "conspiracy or abetting murder", and accused him of being the administrator of the "Laodou Daizi" group, abetting members to assassinate the police.

However, Zhang denied this and quibbled with The New York Times that he had tried to develop a face recognition software and was suspected of being arrested. He has been released on bail pending investigation and is required to report to the police in late August.

Wu Zongluan, a lawyer group with close ties to the opposition and the convener of the Hong Kong Forensic Science Conference, said that if the case is brought to court, the prosecution must prove that the defendant has taken concrete or further actions to kill people because of the relevant remarks. He also said that this matter "is not just as simple as lip service", even if the murder did not happen in the end, there is a chance to be guilty.

According to the Crimes against the Person Ordinance of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the conviction of "conspiracy or abetting murder" can be sentenced to life imprisonment.

Men were held hostage and blackmailed during online dating.

  (Reporter Chen Lili correspondent Luo Lipeng, Ji Hongbao) Less than a month after Chen Mou and female netizen Huang met through the Internet, they developed into online dating and met a tryst. Unexpectedly, her boyfriend Fu found out that Chen Mou was held hostage and demanded 10,000 yuan for "compensation". Yesterday, Fu was discovered by the community patrol police on the way to extort money. At present, Fu has been under criminal detention.


  Female netizens said that they were deceived and stole money for revenge.


  Chen Mou, a 21-year-old man, met Hwang through the Internet, and then they started online dating. On August 8, the two met and stayed in Huang’s dormitory. The next morning, their mobile phones were missing. Because Hwang already has a boyfriend Fu, he told Chen Mou to leave quickly.


  According to Chen Mou, after he left, Hwang suspected that the mobile phone was stolen by him, and felt that Chen Mou cheated and stole money, and he suffered a big loss, so he implicitly told Fu Mou about the situation and asked Fu Mou to get justice for him. Therefore, Fu promised Huang and asked Huang to ask Chen Mou out. Yesterday morning, Chen Mou came to the door of a hotel after receiving a phone call. Fu and several men punched and kicked Chen Mou and asked him to "compensate" 10,000 yuan.


  Then three people got off at a store, and Chen Mou called home to get the money. When he was about to leave, he was rescued when he met a patrolling policeman. At present, Fu has been detained in criminal detention.

Drug control in China for 20 years: the gradual improvement of laws and regulations has formed a new pattern of drug control

  The drug problem is related to national security, the rise and fall of the nation and the well-being of the people. It is the consistent position and firm proposition of the China government to strictly control drugs. In the past 20 years, faced with the severe challenge of the rapid development and spread of the drug problem, the China government has always attached importance to drug control, insisted on incorporating drug control into the economic and social development plan as an important part of national security and social stability, mobilized all social forces, took all necessary measures, and tried its best to ban drugs and benefit the people.

  In recent years, especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee, the State Council and local party committees and governments at all levels, all relevant departments in various regions have adhered to source management, systematic management, comprehensive management, and legal management, and insisted on taking multiple measures to prohibit planting, trafficking, and smoking. Through unremitting efforts, China’s drug control struggle has achieved remarkable results.

  Mobilize all forces to form a new pattern of comprehensive drug control

  Since the late 1990s, the drug situation has become increasingly severe and complicated. Faced with this situation, the CPC Central Committee and the State Council have made a series of strategic decisions to strengthen drug control work, and the responsibility system, leadership system, working mechanism and guarantee mechanism for drug control work have been gradually established and improved, forming a new pattern of comprehensive drug control with unified leadership of governments at all levels, organization and coordination of drug control committees, respective responsibilities of relevant departments and extensive participation of social forces.

  In 1990, the Government of China established the National Narcotics Control Committee composed of 25 departments, including the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Health and the General Administration of Customs, to study and formulate important policies and measures in drug control, coordinate relevant major issues, and lead the national drug control work in a unified way. In 1998, the State Council approved the Ministry of Public Security to set up an anti-drug bureau. Since the national people’s war against drugs was launched in 2005, according to the development and changes of the drug problem in China, the State Council has repeatedly adjusted and enriched the member units of the National Narcotics Control Committee to meet the needs of the anti-drug struggle. At present, the number of member units of the National Narcotics Control Committee has reached 38, and working groups on anti-drug publicity and education, anti-drug investigation information, and drug prohibition and detoxification have been established.

  Adhere to drug control according to law and gradually improve the legal system of drug control.

  The government of China attaches great importance to the construction of the legal system of drug control, constantly speeds up the pace of drug control legislation, and has formulated and promulgated a series of laws and regulations. The legal system of drug control has been gradually improved, and drug control according to law has become the guiding principle of drug control work.

  From the 1970s to the 1990s, the China Municipal Government successively promulgated the Criminal Law, the Customs Law, the Regulations on Administrative Penalties for Public Security and other laws and regulations. On June 1st, 2008, China’s first law comprehensively regulated drug control — — People’s Republic of China (PRC) Anti-drug Law was formally implemented. As a book summarizing China’s experience in drug control for many years and absorbing the essence of international drug control legislation, it provides legal guarantee for comprehensively strengthening drug control work under the new situation, and China’s drug control work has thus entered a new historical stage of comprehensive promotion according to law.

  At present, a system of anti-drug laws and regulations has been formed at the national level in China, with the Criminal Law, the Anti-drug Law, the Regulations on Drug Rehabilitation, the Regulations on the Management of Precursor Chemicals and the Regulations on the Management of Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances as the main body, and local governments have successively formulated a series of supporting laws and regulations, providing a powerful legal weapon for the anti-drug struggle.

  Contain drug sources and crack down on drug crimes.

  China’s anti-drug department has always maintained the trend of cracking down on drug crimes, improved the three-dimensional prevention and control system of land, sea and air mail, and innovated the methods and means of drug enforcement, which severely cracked down on and effectively deterred drug crimes.

  First, vigorously strengthen source blocking and interception to effectively curb the source of drugs. The anti-drug department of China has continuously improved the "three lines of defense" of blocking the first line of the border, checking the second line of the mainland and cutting the main roads, airports, stations and docks, forming a three-dimensional prevention and control system covering the main land, sea, air and postal routes.

  Second, we will continue to carry out special anti-drug campaigns and effectively strengthen investigation and solving cases. Since the people’s war against drugs was launched, a series of special actions such as "pulling out nails" have been organized against foreign drug lords, and a large number of serious cases have been successfully cracked, and more than 80 domestic and foreign drug lords and important drug dealers, including Liu Zhaohua, Han Yongwan, Cai Aishan and Zhong Wanyuan, have been arrested.

  The third is to comprehensively deepen the key rectification of drug control and effectively solve the prominent drug problem. By stepping up efforts to rectify drug trafficking and drug-related problems of special groups, 38,900 drug traffickers were arrested nationwide in 2015 alone. By using satellite remote sensing technology, the "Tianmu" series of drug shoveling operations were continuously carried out, and it was found that the illegally planted opium poppy was completely eradicated. Since the people’s war against drugs was launched in 2005, more than 1 million drug-related crimes have been cracked, 1.15 million drug suspects have been arrested and 751 tons of various drugs have been seized.

  Prevention education is given priority to, and people’s awareness of drug control is generally improved.

  The Anti-drug Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) defines the policy of "prevention first" in anti-drug work, and stipulates the anti-drug publicity and education in a special chapter.

  Public security, education, civil affairs, judicial administration, culture, trade unions, the Communist Youth League, women’s federations and other departments insist on taking teenagers, unemployed people and migrant workers as the focus of anti-drug publicity and education, create rich carriers of brand education activities, organize anti-drug publicity activities covering the whole year with the national anti-drug publicity month in June as the focus, and promote anti-drug publicity and education into communities, schools, units, families, places and rural areas.

  At present, China has established 9 national demonstration bases for drug prevention education, more than 20 provincial anti-drug education bases, more than 700 anti-drug social organizations and more than 1 million anti-drug volunteers. The annual growth rate of newly discovered heroin users has dropped from 13.7% in 2008 to 6.6% in 2013.

  Advocating people-oriented, actively educating and saving drug addicts

  In view of the serious harm caused by drug abuse to drug addicts, their families and society, we have comprehensively used legal, administrative, economic, educational and medical means to control the drug problem, and education has saved a large number of drug addicts.

  At present, 57 drug rehabilitation places have been built in China, and 95,000 drug rehabilitation personnel have been resettled, which has played a positive role in ensuring people’s livelihood and maintaining social harmony and stability.

  In recent years, China has made great efforts to promote community detoxification and community rehabilitation, with towns and streets as the main body, relying on the masses and communities, mobilizing social forces, developing anti-drug social workers, and vigorously implementing the "August 31" community detoxification and community rehabilitation project. In the past five years, 27,000 community drug rehabilitation and community rehabilitation offices have been established nationwide, with 27,000 full-time drug control social workers and 68,000 part-time social workers. A total of 950,000 person-times of community-based drug rehabilitation have been carried out nationwide, and more than 1.2 million people have given up drug addiction for more than three years.

  Strictly prevent illegal loss and strengthen the control of precursor chemicals

  Proceeding from the fact that China is a big producer and exporter of chemicals, the national drug control department has earnestly implemented the 1988 United Nations Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances.

  Over the years, China has always attached importance to the "two-way investigation" in border areas and entry and exit ports, which not only prevents drugs from entering the country, but also prevents precursor chemicals from being smuggled out of the country. At the same time, an international verification system for the import and export of precursor chemicals has been established jointly with the United Nations anti-drug agencies and relevant national authorities, and a management information system for precursor chemicals has been established, which has implemented information management for the production, operation and circulation of precursor chemicals. Over the years, China has actively participated in Operation Purple, Operation Topaz and Operation Prism carried out by the United Nations anti-drug system, and cooperated closely with the Shanghai Cooperation Organization to further strengthen the international verification of precursor chemicals exported by key varieties and countries.

  Since the People’s War against Drugs, more than 23,000 tons of precursor chemicals and non-regulated chemicals have been seized through strict investigation, and 20,500 tons of precursor chemicals have been prevented from being exported through international verification.

  Actively fulfill international conventions and make contributions to the world drug control cause.

  The Government of China has always attached importance to international cooperation in drug control, and, as a responsible big country, has always followed the principle of "extensive participation, shared responsibility, comprehensive and balanced drug control strategy, and emphasis on alternative development" put forward at the twentieth special session of the General Assembly on drug control, and earnestly implemented international drug control conventions.

  Actively promote regional bilateral and multilateral drug control cooperation. The Government of China has hosted many important multilateral international conferences, continuously deepened the mechanism of Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on drug control cooperation in Greater Mekong Subregion, the mechanism of "ASEAN+China" on drug control, the mechanism of Shanghai Cooperation Organization on drug control, and the mechanism of BRICS countries on drug control, and actively demonstrated China’s influence in the international drug control field.

  Actively promote law enforcement and security cooperation in Mekong River Basin. In close cooperation with relevant countries, the case of "October 5" Mekong River was successfully solved in 2011, and naw kham, the first offender of the "Golden Triangle" mega-armed drug trafficking group, and key members were arrested. Leading the establishment of a law enforcement and security cooperation mechanism in the Mekong River Basin of China, Laos, Myanmar and Thailand, and continuing to carry out joint anti-drug operations to jointly crack down on transnational drug crimes and completely destroy criminal groups that have long endangered the security of this basin.

  Actively carry out foreign law enforcement training, equipment and material assistance exchange and alternative development. China has gradually developed from a recipient country to an annual donation of US$ 1 million to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), and has trained nearly 2,000 drug enforcement officials for Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia and other countries within its capacity.

Deeply understand and fully implement the general requirements of party building in the new era

  As Socialism with Chinese characteristics enters a new era, our Party must make new achievements. The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has made a top-level design and comprehensive deployment for the new great project of promoting party building in the new era, put forward the general requirements for party building in the new era, and pointed out the direction for our party to comprehensively strengthen party building at a new historical starting point. We must deeply understand and fully understand the great significance and rich connotation of this general requirement, enhance our ideological consciousness and action consciousness, implement the general requirement in all aspects of party building in a down-to-earth manner, and build the party stronger and stronger.

  First, a profound understanding of the great significance of the general requirements of party building in the new era

  The general requirements for Party building in the new era were put forward by the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China on the basis of the new historical orientation of China’s development and the new historical mission of our Party, on the basis of studying and implementing Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era, and on the basis of the new situation and new problems faced by strengthening Party building. It is of great and far-reaching significance to implement this general requirement.

  This is the inherent requirement of studying and implementing the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era. The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China established Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought, the supreme leader in the new era, as the guiding ideology and action guide that our party must adhere to for a long time, which is a major historical contribution of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era has systematically answered a series of major theoretical and practical questions about what kind of Socialism with Chinese characteristics our Party will adhere to and develop in the new era and how to adhere to and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics. It is the latest achievement of China Marxism and a major theoretical innovation of our Party. The general requirement of Party building in the new era is an important part of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era. Only by constantly strengthening Party building in accordance with the general requirements of Party building in the new era can we further promote the whole party to arm its mind with Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought, the supreme leader in the new era, give full play to the fundamental guiding role of this important thought in all aspects of work and the development of various undertakings, and ensure that the whole party will unite and act in unison under the guidance of this important thought, and forge ahead with one heart and one mind.

  This is an inevitable requirement to base on the new historical orientation of China’s development and complete the historical mission and goal of the party in the new era. The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China made a major political conclusion that Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, and the main contradiction in our society has been transformed into the contradiction between the people’s growing need for a better life and the unbalanced development, and profoundly expounded the historical mission and goal of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in the new era. Unswervingly adhering to and improving the party’s leadership and unswervingly building the party stronger are the basic premise and fundamental guarantee for our party to adapt to the requirements of the new era and complete its historical mission and struggle goals in the new era. The general requirements for party building in the new era proceed from the new requirements put forward by the new era, new journey, new mission and new goals, and further answer the historical topic of "what kind of party to build and how to build the party", forming the general program for the party to strengthen its own construction in the new era. Only by unswervingly implementing this general requirement can we ensure that our Party will always be at the forefront of the times and become the strong leading core of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause.

  This is a strategic requirement to improve the Party’s long-term ruling ability and leadership level, and to ensure that the Party will always be the strong leadership core of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause. The most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership, the greatest advantage of Socialism with Chinese characteristics system is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership, and the Party is the highest political leadership. Upholding and strengthening the overall leadership of the Party is the fundamental interest of the people of China, China and the Chinese nation, and it cannot be shaken at any time or under any circumstances. In the new era, if our Party wants to unite and lead the people to carry out great struggles, advance great undertakings, realize great dreams, lead China with a long history of more than 5,000 years and a population of more than 1.3 billion, and build a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious and beautiful socialist modern power, it must further promote the new great project of Party building and constantly improve the Party’s ruling ability and leadership level. Only by comprehensively implementing the general requirements for Party building in the new era, strengthening the long-term ruling ability of the Party, and comprehensively enhancing the ruling ability, can we ensure that our Party will always become the strong leadership core of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause.

  This is a realistic requirement to promote the in-depth development of the party in an all-round way and ensure that the party will always maintain its vigorous vitality and strong combat effectiveness. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, our party has comprehensively strengthened party leadership and party building, resolutely changed the loose and soft state of managing the party, updated the atmosphere of political life within the party, obviously improved the political ecology within the party, consolidated the unity and unity of the party, significantly improved the relationship between the party and the masses, significantly enhanced the party’s creativity, cohesion and combat effectiveness, and achieved remarkable results in comprehensively administering the party strictly. At the same time, we should be soberly aware that there are still many weak links in party building, and outstanding problems such as impure thinking, impure organization and impure style within the party have not been fundamentally solved. The "four major tests" are long-term and complicated, and the "four dangers" are acute and severe. In order to effectively deal with these tests and dangers and fundamentally solve the outstanding problems existing in the Party, we must fully implement the general requirements for Party building in the new era, make greater efforts to promote the comprehensive and strict management of the Party, ensure that our Party always maintains its advanced nature and purity, and always become the pioneer of the times and the backbone of the nation.

  Second, deeply understand the rich connotation of the general requirements for party building in the new era

  The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China comprehensively expounded the general requirements for Party building in the new era, with lofty ideas and rich connotations, profoundly answered a series of fundamental questions on strengthening Party building under the new historical conditions, enriched and developed the Marxist theory of Party building, marked that our Party’s understanding of the laws governing the construction of the ruling party reached a new height, and provided basic follow-up for promoting the comprehensive and strict administration of the Party in the new era. This general requirement mainly includes the following aspects.

  First, the fundamental principles, guiding principles and main lines of party building in the new era. At the beginning of the general requirement, it is stated clearly that "we should uphold and strengthen the overall leadership of the Party", which points out the fundamental principle of Party building in the new era, embodies the requirement of "upholding the Party’s leadership over all work" and grasps the key of Party building. The general requirements clarify the guiding principle of Party building, that is, "the Party should govern the Party and strictly manage the Party in an all-round way", which embodies the most distinctive theme of Party building since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and require the whole Party to comprehensively strengthen Party building with strict attitude, strict requirements, strict measures and strict system, and implement all tasks of comprehensively and strictly managing the Party. It is generally required that Party building in the new era should "focus on strengthening the Party’s long-term ruling ability, advancement and purity". Adding the word "long-term" to the original expression of the party’s ruling ability construction profoundly shows that improving the party’s ruling ability and leadership level and maintaining the party’s advanced nature and purity are always on the road, accompanying the whole process of the party’s ruling, and adhering to and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s magnificent journey; It contains far-reaching considerations on the long-term and arduous nature of the party’s ruling mission; Reveals the essential requirements of the construction of Marxist ruling party; It reflects the new characteristics and requirements of the party’s ruling ability construction in the new era.That is, all the work of party building must focus on the long-term governance of the party and the long-term stability of the country.

  The second is the overall layout of party building in the new era. The general requirements further clarify the overall layout of party building in the new era, that is, "taking the party’s political construction as the guide, taking firm ideals and beliefs as the foundation, and focusing on mobilizing the enthusiasm, initiative and creativity of the whole party, comprehensively promoting the party’s political construction, ideological construction, organizational construction, work style construction and discipline construction, and deepening the anti-corruption struggle." This overall layout has grasped the key to Party building in the new era, and summarized the basic contents, key areas and their interrelationships of Party building in the new era. One of the major innovations is to incorporate political construction and discipline construction into the overall layout of Party building, highlighting the leading position of political construction and discipline construction, which is a fundamental policy, reflecting our Party’s profound understanding of communist party’s ruling law and grasping the "bull’s nose" of promoting comprehensive and strict governance of the Party in the new era. This overall layout highlights "taking firm ideals and beliefs as the foundation", indicating that lofty goals, spiritual realm and value pursuit are the "roots" of party building, and we must lay a solid foundation for communist party people’s spiritual pillar and ideological foundation. This overall layout focuses on mobilizing the enthusiasm, initiative and creativity of the whole party, emphasizing not only giving full play to the role of party organizations at all levels and all party member, but also respecting party member’s dominant position, inspiring the comrades of the whole party to take responsibility and create enthusiasm, and concentrating the wisdom and strength of the whole party.This overall layout adjusts the system construction from one of the original "five major constructions" to "running the system construction through it", which more clearly reflects the status, function and requirements of the system construction. Emphasizing the in-depth promotion of the anti-corruption struggle has demonstrated our party’s firm determination to maintain discipline and win an overwhelming victory in the anti-corruption struggle.

  The third is the general goal of party building in the new era. The general requirements set the general goal of party building in the new era, that is, "to continuously improve the quality of party building and build the party into a Marxist ruling party that is always in the forefront of the times, wholeheartedly supported by the people, brave in self-revolution, able to withstand all kinds of storms and tests, and full of vitality." The overall goal puts the continuous improvement of the quality of Party building in a prominent position, which means that Party building in the new era must adhere to centering on the center, serving the overall situation, paying attention to connotation, stressing practical results, constantly improving the level of Party building, and achieving tangible results, instead of emphasizing form over quality and engaging in formalism and superficial writing. The overall goal covers many aspects, such as improving the Party’s ruling ability and leadership level, maintaining the Party’s advanced nature and purity, strengthening the flesh-and-blood ties between the Party and the people, constantly enhancing the Party’s "four-self ability", and always maintaining a vibrant political character and spiritual outlook, which constitutes an organic whole, embodies the nature, purpose and program of the Party, and embodies the value orientation, political determination and mission of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people in the new era. To strengthen party building in the new era, we must firmly grasp this general goal and move towards it step by step.

  On the basis of putting forward the general requirements for Party building in the new era, the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has deployed eight key tasks for Party building in the new era. These key tasks involve all aspects and fields of party building, highlight the main contradictions and key issues of party building, embody the general requirements of party building in the new era, and are the practical path to promote the comprehensive and strict management of the party to develop in depth. In order to take root in the general requirements of party building, continuously enhance the party’s political leadership, ideological leadership, mass organization and social appeal, and ensure the smooth realization of the party’s goal in the new era, we must complete these key tasks in a down-to-earth and high-quality manner.

  The general requirements for Party building in the new era and the eight key tasks are an organic whole closely linked, interacting and complementing each other. Among them, the fundamental principle is the basis, and all activities of party building should follow this fundamental principle; The guiding principle is to follow and lead the party building in the right direction, and all activities of party building should implement this principle; The main line is "outline" and "soul", which runs through all aspects and the whole process of party building; The overall layout is the overall arrangement and key areas. When the overall layout is established, the party building will have a clear framework and clear working ideas. The overall goal is direction and standard, and all the work of party building should be strengthened towards this goal and tested according to this standard; The key tasks in eight aspects are the main tasks and the specific ways to achieve the goals. The tasks are clear, and the implementation of the general requirements will have solid support and a strong grasp. To implement the major arrangements for Party building in the new era, we must profoundly understand and grasp the internal relations between them, and persist in coordinated, coordinated and integrated promotion.

  Third, comprehensively implement the general requirements and key tasks of party building in the new era, and solidly promote the comprehensive and strict management of the party.

  The general requirements and key tasks of Party building in the new era put forward in the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China have outlined the blueprint and path of Party building in the new era, and are the top-level design and strategic deployment to further promote the comprehensive and strict management of the Party. All comrades in the party should enhance their sense of historical mission and political responsibility, conscientiously implement the general requirements and key tasks, and push forward the new great project of party building with practical actions.

  First, we should focus on the fundamental construction of the party’s political construction. It is the fundamental requirement of our party as a Marxist political party to take a clear-cut stand and talk about politics. The political construction of the party is the fundamental construction of the party and determines the direction and effect of the party’s construction. It is the primary task of the party’s political construction to ensure that the whole party obeys the central authorities and uphold the authority of the party Central Committee and centralized and unified leadership. The whole party must firmly implement the party’s political line, strictly abide by political discipline and rules, and maintain a high degree of consistency with the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core in political stance, direction, principles and road. We should be serious about inner-party political life, strictly respect party constitution, strictly implement certain norms of inner-party political life under the new situation, strictly implement democratic centralism, and strive to create a clean and upright inner-party political ecology. Strengthen the political and cultural construction within the party, carry forward the values of loyalty, honesty, fairness and decency, seeking truth from facts, honesty and integrity, and resolutely prevent and resist the erosion of all kinds of negative and decadent ideology and culture. Strengthen the exercise of party spirit, constantly improve political awareness and political ability, be loyal to the party, share worries for the party, do their duty for the party, benefit the people, and always keep the political nature of communist party people.

  Second, we must resolutely implement the fundamental task of arming the whole party with Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era. Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era is an ideological system with rich connotation, rigorous logic, complete system and profound knowledge, and it is the guiding ideology that our Party must adhere to for a long time. All comrades in the party should thoroughly understand and accurately grasp its rich connotation, spiritual essence and practical requirements; Deeply grasp the Marxist standpoint, viewpoint and method that runs through it, and grasp the basic strategy of upholding and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era. The lofty ideal of communism and the common ideal of Socialism with Chinese characteristics are the spiritual pillar and political soul of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people, and also the ideological basis for maintaining the unity and unity of the Party. We should take firm ideals and beliefs as the primary task of the party’s ideological construction, keep in mind the party’s purpose, stand up the spiritual backbone of communist party people, solve the "master switch" problem of world outlook, outlook on life and values, and consciously become firm believers and loyal practitioners of lofty ideals and common ideals. We should adhere to the principle of integrating theory with practice, combining learning with application, and implement it in all aspects of party building and the whole process of socialist modernization, so that Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era can truly become a powerful ideological weapon and action guide to promote the development of the cause of the party and the country.

  Third, we must promote all aspects of party building in the new era as a whole. Implementing the general requirements and key tasks of party building in the new era is a systematic project, which needs to focus on the overall situation and make overall plans. It is necessary to give full play to the role of Party committees at all levels in taking the overall situation into account and coordinating all parties, adhere to the combination of overall promotion and key breakthroughs, and be good at comprehensively promoting Party building in all aspects and fields, and at grasping major contradictions, highlighting key points and solving key and urgent problems. We should be good at grasping and applying the laws of Party building, making scientific planning, rational design, promoting in an orderly manner, and constantly improving and innovating the ways and means of Party building. We should be good at coordinating and organizing party organizations at all levels and departments, mobilizing all forces, and forming an overall joint force to implement the general requirements of party building and all tasks. We should be good at closely combining strategic deployment with campaign implementation, not only focusing on achieving long-term strategic goals, but also carefully organizing every current campaign to promote the implementation of party building tasks in the new era step by step.

  Fourth, we should implement the spirit of being strict with reality in the whole process of party building in the new era. It is the most distinctive character of our party to be brave in self-revolution and strictly manage the party. The outstanding achievements of strictly administering the Party in an all-round way since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China have provided a strong political guarantee for the development of the cause of the Party and the country. To implement the general requirements and key tasks of party building in the new era, we must adhere to the word "strictness" as the first priority and the word "reality" as the bottom. The understanding and requirements of managing the party should be strict, and we must never have the idea of relaxing and resting our feet. We must always tighten the screws of strictly managing the party; The political life within the party should be strict, the discipline of the party should be strict, the supervision within the party should be strengthened, and a positive and healthy political culture within the party should be developed; The selection and education of cadres should be strict, cadres should be selected and appointed in strict accordance with the standards of good cadres, cadres should be educated and managed in strict accordance with the requirements of the new era and new mission, and efforts should be made to build a team of high-quality professional cadres; Zhengfeng Su has strict minutes, dares to face problems, dares to scrape bones and cure drugs, so that party member and cadres know awe, guard against fear, keep the bottom line, and get used to working and living under supervision and restraint; We should strictly implement the responsibility of managing the party, further expand the coverage of the responsibility system for party building, establish and improve the list of party building responsibilities, improve the mechanism of supervision, assessment and evaluation of party building responsibilities, strengthen accountability, ensure the implementation of responsibilities, and promote the party management from lenient to strict and hard, and constantly open up a new situation of party building in the new era.

Compilation of Ancient Books and Articles of Prosperity —— On-the-spot Report on the Publication of Huxiang Library, a Large-scale Ancient Books Series



From the planning idea put forward in 2003, to the official launch in August 2006, and to the completion in July 2013, Huxiang Library is known as "a great event in the history of Hunan’s cultural development and a huge landmark project for the construction of a strong cultural province in Hunan". At the publication summary report meeting of Huxiang Library held in October, Huxiang Library, the largest publishing project and major public cultural project in Hunan’s history, was officially digitally republished. This is how difficult it is to persist and struggle, how brilliant it is to dream and glory!

Liu youping

Comprehensive, systematic and in-depth collection of Huxiang classics and Huxiang culture research achievements

For a long time, cultural scholars at home and abroad and local historical and cultural researchers in Hunan have been faced with the situation that the ancient books and documents are scattered and unsystematic in studying Hunan’s history, culture, people, allusions and customs. There has always been a rare collection of books and periodicals in Hunan. In 1946, the former Hunan National Government Literature Committee had an idea of compiling Hunan literature, but it failed because of the social unrest at that time. For thousands of years, the dream of compiling local classics in Hunan has always been a pity for people of insight.

In 2003, Wen Xuande, then deputy secretary of Hunan Provincial Party Committee, proposed for the first time to compile a set of comprehensive, systematic and in-depth large-scale cultural series "Huxiang Library" or "Huxiang Culture Encyclopedia" based on the great achievements made in the research and utilization of Huxiang culture, focusing on the historical origin and research results of Huxiang culture, and taking "official nature, government behavior and financial support" for 10 to 20 years. This proposal was quickly approved by the provincial party Committee and government, and the funds for compiling Huxiang Library were implemented, and a leading group for editing and publishing Huxiang Library was approved, and the compilation and publication of Huxiang Library was planned. For more than ten years, the main leaders of the provincial party committees have given high praise to Huxiang Library and given strong support from all aspects.

The publication of Huxiang Library is "of great practical and far-reaching historical significance for the world to understand Hunan, promote Hunan to the world, make the study of Huxiang culture arrangement a lasting driving force for Hunan’s economic and social development, and promote the construction of a harmonious society".

An unprecedented event in Hunan’s publishing history

The comprehensive compilation and collation of Hunan local classics and documents is an unprecedented event in Hunan publishing history, and it is also the first large-scale cultural project led by the provincial party committee and government in our province since the founding of New China.
The responsibility is great and far-reaching. After careful consideration, Wen Xuande was appointed as the director of the editing and publishing committee of Huxiang Library, with Liu Mingtai, Zhang Guanghua, Peng Guohua, Zhang Tianming, Xiong Zhiqi, Xia Jianqin, Ding Shuangping, Zhu Hanmin, Zeng Zhutao as the deputy directors and Guo Tianmin as the binding design director. Members of the editorial board are all senior experts and researchers in publishing and social science history, which laid a solid foundation for the compilation of Huxiang Library.

According to incomplete statistics, there are about 2 million copies of ancient books in Hunan Province, mainly in Hunan Library (800,000 copies), Hunan Normal University Library (200,000 copies) and Provincial Academy of Social Sciences Library (120,000 copies), and some of them are scattered in provincial museums, provincial archives, Hunan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine Library and folk places. Many ancient books can be called national treasures, but they should be hidden from the vast literature. To this end, the editorial board’s first move is to build a book framework and make a good topic selection plan. Yin Feizhou, then director of the Library Department of the Provincial Press and Publication Bureau, recalled that he drafted the discussion outline of the publication consultation meeting of Huxiang Library at that time on the advice of the leaders. After scientific and rigorous argumentation, the draft was changed, and finally it was determined that the first part of Huxiang literature and the second part of Huxiang research were the overall framework of the book. A series of predecessors’ works of Huxiang Literature Department; Part B is mainly the modern works on the characters, history and customs of Hunan, and also includes some reference books and data compilation.

It took more than six years to compile, print and publish Huxiang Library, with a total of 702 books, including 442 books of Huxiang Literature, 259 books of Huxiang Culture Studies and Literature and History Materials and 1 book of Bibliography, with about 400 million words in pictures and texts, more than 2,300 tons of special paper for book body, 90,000 meters of cover cloth, and the color difference of cloth should not exceed 2. The multimedia digital communication platform and dedicated terminal of Huxiang Library, as well as a service cloud data system centered on Huxiang culture and covering a variety of resources, have also been completed.

Strive to fully reflect the cultural outlook of Hunan before 1949.

After sorting out the bibliographies of ancient books and records, the editorial board reached a consensus to list the bibliographies. There were more than 800 kinds of books compiled in A, mainly written by Hunan people, including some unearthed documents in Hunan, representative works of people who lived in Hunan in the past dynasties and some old newspapers and periodicals in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, in order to fully reflect the cultural outlook of Hunan before 1949.

Yuelu Bookstore has compiled and published the complete works of Hunan scholars such as Chuanshan Quanshu, Wei Yuan Complete Works, Zeng Guofan Complete Works, Zuo Zongtang Complete Works, Hu Linyi Collection, Peng Yulin Collection, Ceng Guoquan Collection, Tao Shu Collection, etc. After full discussion, the editorial board has formulated the guiding opinions for reorganizing and proofreading these classics into the library, such as Chuanshan Quanshu, which lasted for 8 years. Huang Xingji, published by Zhonghua Book Company in 1981, has 396,000 words, and the revised library edition has been expanded to more than 700,000 words by adding Huang Xingji’s Collection (Hunan People’s Press, 2002) and many lost articles. The original 1984 edition of Cai Songpo Collection by Shanghai People’s Publishing House was about 750,000 words, and the revised library edition was renamed Cai E Collection, which was expanded to 1.14 million words. In the Qing Dynasty, Hunan Tongzhi, Changsha Fuzhi and Yuezhou Fuzhi, as well as a large number of Hunan people’s collections, historical biographies, monographs and ancient books of Hunan ethnic minorities, were collated and included in the library. Mao Zedong’s Early Manuscripts and the History of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and Hunan (1920-1949) are also included. All the books in storage have been revised and re-revised by experts and editors.

Ma Meizhu of Yuelu Bookstore still remembers that they knew that there were 100 pages of Guo Songtao’s manuscripts in the Shandong Provincial Library. If they got the treasure, they quickly went to the Shandong Provincial Library to get these valuable materials. When I learned that Guo Songtao’s letters were in the British National Archives, I immediately contacted the British National Archives to ask them for support. The other party quickly took photos of all Guo Songtao’s archives and sent them on CD-ROM. Guo Songtao’s manuscript in Yunnan Provincial Library was also successfully copied. These hard-won manuscripts are all included in Guo Ji. Ma Meizhu said with deep emotion that it is worth 10 years of hard work for this big book.

Exhauste one’s efforts to ensure quality

Part B is written or compiled by modern people in Huxiang Studies Department, including seven parts: Huxiang history, figures, archaeology and ancient culture, Huxiang scenery, comprehensive research of Huxiang culture, compilation of Huxiang literature and history materials and Huxiang culture reference books, and each part is classified according to genre or content. Part B is not like Part A, as long as the selected bibliography is confirmed, there are ready-made documents to sort out, and most of the topics need to be collected by the authors. Xia Jianqin learned that some of Zhang Shizhao’s manuscripts that had never been published were in the hands of a collector in Beijing, so he specially went to Beijing to visit Zhang’s old daughter Zhang Hanzhi, and asked her to come forward to negotiate with the collector and provide copies for the collection editor. The collector made copies of all Zhang Shizhao’s poems. The rearranged Collection of Zhang Shizhao’s Poems contains more than 2,000 poems, plus couplets, which is 10 times more than the poems of The Complete Works of Zhang Shizhao published in Shanghai. Soon after Zhang Hanzhi’s death, Xia Jianqin heard of it and said, "That was close!"! If it weren’t for Ms. Zhang’s help, Zhang Shizhao’s Poetry Collection would have left irreparable regret.

The editors of the library have exhausted their efforts and been loyal to their duties, so that the quality of the library can live up to expectations. Fu Benqing, Hunan Education Publishing House, was assigned to edit Yang Zongji’s masterpiece Yang Zongji, a native of Ningyuan, the founder of the "Nine-style School" of Chinese Guqin. The original edition of this book is the block-printed edition in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. The notation method is the reduction of characters, which is older than the Gongchi manual and few people can understand it. According to the requirements of the editorial board, all the works in Part B should be prefaced by professionals within 20,000 words, introducing the author’s experience and the academic value of the works. He found a well-known guqin player in Changsha, and no one could or would write. Finally, he went to Beijing to find Mr. Li Xiangting, president of the Guqin Professional Committee of China and professor of Guqin in the Central Conservatory of Music. Li Xiangting didn’t agree at first. He and Yang Zongji were not a sect, and he had no relationship with each other. Fu Benqing told Mr. Li Xiangting sincerely about the significance of the publication of Huxiang Library, and asked him to make a realistic introduction and comment on Yang’s series of piano studies, so that he could make his own comments academically. Li Xiangting was moved by Fu Benqing’s sincerity and promised to write a composition. After reviewing Mr. Li Xiangting’s article, Xia Jianqin said that the preface was very well written, and he made a truthful introduction and comment on Yang’s Series of Qinxue, with beautiful words.

Hard work, burn the ointment.

My head is poor, and I burn my ointment. Editing a set of excellent books of Huxiang Library, which integrates the essence of Hunan culture, contributes to the prosperity of future generations, takes the past as a mirror and applies it to the world. It must be from a first-class intelligent mind and painstaking people. Guo Tianmin, the late former vice president of Hunan Fine Arts Publishing House, retired as the design director of this series. At this time, he had already suffered from lung cancer, macular degeneration and heart stent surgery, but he threw himself into this publishing project with his feelings for Huxiang culture. He said that for a publisher, not everyone is so lucky.

This book binding design is face saving. Guo Tianmin is a "banner" in Hunan publishing industry. In order to reflect the distinctive regional characteristics of Huxiang in design, a "book label" that can reflect Huxiang culture is needed. After repeated argumentation and discussion, Guo Tianmin chose the Phoenix in the silk painting "The Dragon and Phoenix Lady" unearthed in the Chu Tomb of Chenjiadashan in Changsha in 1949 as the bookmark. "Phoenix" is closely related to the ancient Chu culture and is the totem of Huxiang culture. After his redrawing, the Phoenix bookmark with soaring head, vivid posture, concise shape and vigorous and smooth lines vividly shows the long history of Huxiang culture. On the cover design and material use of Huxiang Library, he selected black-gray cloth for the first edition, earth-gray cloth for the second edition, and seal characters for the font. From the color of the book, the thickness of the paper, the font on the cover, etc., the perfect visual effect is finally achieved. Guo Tianmin requires that every book in Huxiang Library should have a true spine, a round back and a hollow cavity, which is the first time among books published in Hunan. The compilation of 702 books in the Library was completed by 13 publishing houses and 9 printing houses. To achieve the complete consistency of book binding technology, the difficulty can be imagined. Guo Tianmin’s requirement is that the error is plus or minus one, that is, the error between all the words on the spine of each book should not exceed 0.1 mm, all the books should be in a line, and the white line at the bottom of the back of each book must be connected into a straight line.

On his deathbed, Guo Tianmin was still thinking about the printing of this set of books. Everyone came to see him, and the first thing he asked was, are the books coming out soon? Before the new book was sent to his hospital bed, he stroked the book with a faint scent of ink and showed a gratified smile on his face.

Emperor Wen of Sui, the old editor of Yuelu Bookstore who presided over the editing and proofreading of Chuanshan Quanshu and Liu Rongji, died on March 16th, 2010 at the age of 87, and failed to see the newly revised Chuanshan Quanshu published. In the publishing industry, it is said that Yang Lao is a good man, and he is very serious and responsible for editing. The books edited and proofread by him are all praised by his peers. David, a middle-aged scholar, Yu Will and Xiao Lisheng, a young editor, worked hard to compile Huxiang Library until the last moment of their lives.

Zuo Hanzhong of Hunan Fine Arts Publishing House was rehired as the project host of Huxiang Library when he was about to retire. He said that he had worked as an art social worker for nearly 30 years, and it took seven years to compile a set of books, namely Huxiang Library. These seven years have been bittersweet for him, with mixed feelings, which is beyond words. But he said something from the bottom of his heart: meeting and staying with Huxiang Library is my blessing. Isn’t this the true feelings of all library publishers!

Do one’s best and strive for perfection

Gong Shuguang, chairman of Hunan Zhongnan Media Group, solemnly promised to the editorial board on behalf of the group that he would complete the task on schedule without compromise. Hunan publishers, "There are many powerful publishing teams, and there is no army without Hunan", have the courage to seek great things, the style ability to do practical things, and the incomparable courage to be the first in the world. They have worked hard, painstakingly, and have no regrets. They have devoted themselves to their work according to the work arrangements of the group, and all the books belonging to Huxiang Library have been given a green light all the way to ensure that the publication of Huxiang Library will not be affected. According to incomplete statistics, nearly 100 editors and proofreaders from various groups of the group participated in the work of Huxiang Library. Nearly 400 monograph authors and proofreaders were invited, and 16 collective author units were invited.

Liu Mingtai recalled his work experience in Huxiang Library in the past 10 years, saying that it was a pioneering work in the publishing history of our province, and the task was glorious and arduous. He said the details of the work: the final determination and numbering of the topics in the library is a very important basic work, which requires that all the topics in the library should be carefully planned and measured before publication, and once they are determined, they cannot be changed. Some books and records have multiple volumes, while others are merged into one volume; The quality of some modern books may not meet the publishing requirements, and the number of words and albums in some final books may be different from the expected ones. This work is quite troublesome, and it requires a rigorous work attitude to make no mistakes. Ding Shuangping, general manager of Zhongnan Publishing Media Group, said that the implementation of this project will greatly promote and help the expansion of the publishing lineup, the combing of publishing resources and the expansion of future publishing content. In order to ensure the quality of book publishing, the Editorial Committee has formulated the Standardized Manual of Book Editing and proofreading and the Management Regulations of Huxiang Library on Editing and Publishing, which have been issued to all units for strict implementation.

In the prosperous times, the canon will be revised, and the final result will be positive.

It took 11 years from the compilation of Huxiang Library to the completion of the whole book. Zhu Jiangang, then director of Hunan Press and Publication Bureau and director of Huxiang Library Office, said that there has never been such a large-scale series of Huxiang Library in Hunan history, and its far-reaching influence and important value will not be truly reflected until decades, hundreds or even thousands of years after its publication. Its influence on cultural inheritance and future generations cannot be underestimated.

Zhang Guanghua, the executive deputy director of the editorial board, once borrowed a motto from Tong Ren Tang, "Seek treasures, though your taste is expensive, you will not dare to reduce material resources;" The lecture hall is famous, and although it is complicated, it will not dare to save labor. " To express my experience when reading the manuscript of the library. Now "Huxiang Library" has finally come to fruition. She said with great confidence that the graceful and magnificent "Huxiang Library" will last for a long time, and its cultural influence will definitely last forever.

All the books of Huxiang Library have been compiled and printed, which is an important achievement of a strong cultural province in our province. The State Press and Publication Administration, the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial Department of Finance, the Provincial Department of Culture, Hunan Publishing Investment Holding Group, the Provincial Academy of Social Sciences, the Provincial Local Records Editorial Committee, Hunan Library, the Provincial Museum, the Provincial Archives and other units have given strong support from all aspects. The publication of Huxiang Library is a national key cultural publishing boutique project with the largest scale, the strongest editing power, the highest technical elements and the most powerful efforts in Hunan publishing history.

The provincial party committee and government show Huxiang Library as a business card for Hunan’s cultural construction at home and abroad, and present it to all kinds of libraries (including Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan) inside and outside the province. At the same time, they develop digital books of Huxiang Library, open websites and share the classic documents of Huxiang culture. This is the embodiment of the soft power of Hunan’s cultural construction, and the response is enthusiastic.

"Huxiang Library" ended in perfection. The appearance of this magnificent classic book is a symbol of the strength of Hunan’s comprehensive political, economic and cultural development.

History is left to us, and we are left to history.
