How to deal with the flu peak? Besides oseltamivir, these drugs can also be used →

Original Shanghai Xuhui Shanghai Xuhui

The infection rate of influenza in adults is 5%-10%, and that in children is 20%-30%. How should children deal with the flu? The reporter interviewed Liu Yangyan, the attending pediatrician of the Eighth People’s Hospital of Shanghai, to teach us what influenza is, its symptoms, its countermeasures and preventive measures.

What is the flu?

Influenza is the abbreviation of influenza, which is a highly contagious respiratory disease caused by influenza virus. Influenza viruses are divided into four types, of which type A and type B are the main ones that affect human beings, among which type A is more virulent. Influenza caused by influenza A and B viruses are also called influenza A and influenza B respectively. According to the information collected by CDC this year, influenza A (H1N1) and influenza B (H3N2) are prevalent.

Influenza occurs every year. Why is it particularly strong this year?

When a new subtype or an old subtype of influenza A virus reappears, people generally lack the corresponding immunity, which causes the virus to spread rapidly among people. Coupled with the impact of the epidemic in 2022, fewer people were vaccinated against influenza, resulting in an influenza outbreak this spring.

What is the difference in symptoms between children and adults?

Most adult influenza cases are common. Compared with adults, children suffer from influenza more quickly, and high fever is more common. At the highest time, their body temperature can reach 39℃-41℃, and their systemic symptoms are more serious, often accompanied by chills, chills, muscle aches, diarrhea, abdominal pain, etc. A few people are prone to pneumonia, myocarditis and septic shock.

Children, especially those under 5 years old, are high-risk groups of influenza, and they are more likely to suffer from severe and critical illness. In addition, children’s influenza is prone to acute laryngitis, otitis media, tracheitis, bronchitis and pneumonia, and the mortality rate is higher than that of adults.

Neonatal influenza is relatively rare, but it is not uncommon. After infection, there are often many complications, such as pneumonia. Other clinical manifestations may include refusing milk, drowsiness and shortness of breath. In addition, the probability of children’s influenza complicated with encephalopathy and encephalitis is higher than that of adults, mainly manifested as indifference, lethargy, slow response, convulsions, etc. Therefore, children’s influenza should pay attention to the symptoms of digestive tract and nervous system in addition to respiratory symptoms.

What should children do if they get the flu?

If the child has high fever, sore throat, general weakness and muscle pain, he may be targeted by the flu and need to see a doctor immediately. The hospital has a rapid flu antigen test. Once the flu is diagnosed or highly suspected, active antiviral treatment should be taken. Antiviral treatment is the best within 48 hours after symptoms appear, even if it exceeds 48 hours, antiviral drugs can also benefit. Therefore, for children, no matter how many days the flu symptoms appear, if the condition has not improved, antiviral drug treatment should be started as soon as possible after suspicion or diagnosis.

Oral oseltamivir is the first choice for the treatment of influenza in children at present. Infants under one year old, severe or critically ill children who are inconvenient to take oral drugs can also be treated with intravenous infusion of peramivir injection. Children should be given drugs according to their weight according to the instructions. Generally, the antiviral course of oseltamivir takes 5 days, and that of peramivir takes 1-5 days. The course of treatment for severe patients can be extended appropriately.

But don’t blindly use antiviral drugs, whether it’s the flu or the common cold, take oseltamivir. Before using oseltamivir, patients suspected of influenza should try to take respiratory tract samples for pathogen detection, which is beneficial to judge whether to take medicine according to the treatment plan, use according to the prevention plan or stop taking medicine according to the condition. Oseltamivir is not a "magic medicine" without side effects, which may cause a series of adverse reactions, mainly nausea, vomiting and other digestive tract symptoms, as well as skin changes (rash, erythema, toxic epidermal necrolysis, etc.) and mental symptoms (delirium, abnormal behavior).

In addition to antiviral drugs, Chinese patent medicine Xiaoer Chiqiao Qingre Granule and some traditional Chinese medicines for relieving cough and eliminating phlegm have also been selected as influenza guidelines in China.

Taking antiviral drugs does not mean entering the "safe". Parents should closely observe the general situation of their children. When the following changes occur, they should seek medical treatment in time and need hospitalization:

Persistent high fever for more than 3 days; Cough is aggravated, and the amount of sputum is obviously increased; Dyspnea or chest pain; Purple lips; Severe vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration; Mental changes such as unresponsiveness, lethargy and convulsions; The original underlying diseases are obviously aggravated.

How to prevent influenza in the high season?

There are three effective ways to prevent and control infectious diseases:

First, control the source of infection. If the school or family members have flu symptoms, they should be properly isolated, and the isolation can be lifted when the symptoms disappear for 48 hours or the test is negative.

Second, block the route of transmission. The most effective prevention methods in the high incidence period are wearing masks and washing hands frequently. We should also adhere to the "epidemic prevention three-piece suit": wear masks scientifically, keep social distance and pay attention to personal hygiene. "Five Protection Needs": Keep wearing masks, keep social distance, cover your cough and sneeze, wash your hands frequently, and try to open the windows.

Third, protect vulnerable groups. The most effective way to protect susceptible people is vaccination. Although vaccination will still infect people, vaccination can avoid a large-scale epidemic in the population, alleviate clinical symptoms and avoid serious diseases. In the past two weeks, if there are already infected people around, it is suggested that vaccination can be suspended. At this time, there may be a certain viral load and antibodies have been produced by themselves. The antibody produced by the vaccine is 2-4 weeks after vaccination, and it is best to vaccinate in autumn every year, which can prevent infection in winter and next spring.

In addition, we should work and rest regularly, ensure adequate sleep, eat healthily, adhere to moderate exercise and improve our immunity. Vitamin c can be supplemented in the near future to enhance the body’s resistance. Close contacts of influenza patients can be prevented by oral oseltamivir.

According to the data monitoring of major hospitals, the flu is at its peak and will come to an end at the end of March. Children who are not infected need active prevention. If children who have been infected need active treatment, pay attention to rest and take medicine according to the doctor’s advice. Parents should actively pay attention to the condition and avoid serious illness.

Five departments: Complete the integration, merger and optimization of nature reserves in 2025.

  A nature reserve has many signs, which are called scenic spots, tourist areas, geological parks, etc. There are also a large number of urban and township built-up areas in the reserve, and the ecological space and production and living space squeeze each other. The chaos in this nature reserve will be thoroughly rectified.

  On March 17th, National Forestry and Grassland Administration, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs jointly issued the Plan for the Construction of National Parks and Other Nature Reserves and Major Projects for the Protection of Wild Animals and Plants (2021-2035) (hereinafter referred to as the "Construction Plan"), which determined that by 2025, the integration and optimization of nature reserves will be completed, and the unified registration of natural resources will be carried out. By 2035, the layout of nature reserves will be further optimized, and the total area will be stable at more than 18% of the land area.

  "After the institutional reform in 2018, all kinds of nature reserves will be protected and supervised by the forestry and grass departments. Integrate all kinds of nature reserves, and in principle only keep one brand. " On March 18th, National Forestry and Grassland Administration experts told the First Financial Reporter.

  The contradiction between protection and utilization of various nature reserves is prominent, which is one of the main problems faced by the construction of national parks and other nature reserves in China for many years.

  There are a large number of urban and township built-up areas in the nature reserve, and the problem of mutual extrusion between ecological space and production and living space is prominent. Photography/Zhangke

  According to the Construction Plan, due to historical reasons, the conflict between man and land in China’s nature reserves is more prominent. There are a large number of mining rights in nature reserves, and there are contradictions and conflicts between the development of mineral resources and the basic positioning of nature reserves; Water activities such as waterway shipping in nature reserves overlap with the distribution areas of aquatic organisms.

  The Construction Plan also points out other outstanding problems in China’s nature reserves: influenced by the original natural resource management system, China’s nature reserves lack a unified and coordinated top-level design, and various departments set them up according to their own functions, resulting in unscientific and unsystematic classification system of nature reserves in China, and unclear and uncoordinated functional positioning. At the same time, the separate demarcation has also caused the spatial overlap among 49.8% nature reserves in China.

  At the same time, the "Construction Plan" indicates that nature reserves and endangered species in China are mostly distributed in remote and backward areas, with limited construction investment and obviously insufficient protection and management capabilities; Due to the rapid economic development, rapid population growth and the lack of scientific and reasonable land use policies, China’s natural forest area has decreased, wetlands have shrunk, grasslands have deteriorated, wildlife habitats and wild plants’ original habitats have been seriously disturbed, eroded, fragmented and destroyed, and habitat islanding, fragmentation and functional degradation have become serious problems. The ability to prevent and control epidemic diseases and alien invasive species is insufficient.

  Based on these problems, the Construction Plan proposes to properly mediate contradictions and conflicts in national parks, and smoothly and orderly withdraw mining rights, hydropower stations and other projects that do not meet the requirements of national park management and control. On the basis of fully soliciting the opinions of the owners and contractors, the collective land with high protection value in the core protection area will be given priority to standardize the circulation through leasing and replacement, and will be managed by the national park management agency in a unified way. Rational use of natural resources, franchising in general control areas according to law.

  Relevant experts who participated in the preparation of the Construction Plan told the First Financial Reporter that promoting the franchise of nature reserves in a reasonable and orderly manner can lay a good foundation for the development of eco-industries such as eco-tourism and forest health care, promote the improvement of infrastructure and investment environment in communities and surrounding areas, and help stimulate domestic demand and expand employment.

Local education departments should coordinate with relevant departments to further strengthen comprehensive protection in noise control, health and epidemic prevention, heatstroke prevention and cooling, and create a secure and comfortable examination environment for candidates.

  In addition, the Ministry of Education emphasizes that it is necessary to fully prepare for emergencies such as extreme weather, natural disasters and epidemic spread that may occur during the examination period. Local examination institutions should work with local disabled persons’ federations to actively create conditions to provide targeted examination services for disabled candidates. At the same time, this year’s college entrance examination coincides with the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, and all localities should pay more attention to traffic control to facilitate candidates to go to the examination room.

  In terms of traffic security, a few days ago, the Traffic Management Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security also held a video dispatching meeting to deploy traffic security work for the 2019 college entrance examination and the Dragon Boat Festival.

Through the combination of traffic big data analysis and authoritative research, it provides candidates with pre-judgment contents such as congestion peak hours on the test day, road congestion tips around the test sites and travel suggestions.

  Guarantee the examination environment: strictly control noise interference in many places

  In order to ensure the college entrance examination candidates to prepare for the exam with peace of mind, recently, various localities have also introduced measures to create a quiet environment for candidates.

  For example, the Beijing Municipal People’s Government recently issued a circular on organizing and ensuring the college entrance examination in 2019.

  The circular pointed out that during the college entrance examination, all projects in Beijing are forbidden to carry out construction operations that produce noise pollution at night; In the construction site within 500 meters around the test center, no construction work that produces noise pollution shall be arranged all day.

  All construction enterprises should reasonably arrange the progress of the project, formulate and announce the management measures for the prevention and control of noise pollution on the construction site, and actively do a good job in noise reduction and noise reduction. In order to reduce the noise interference to the test center, some bus lines will bypass the bus stops around the test center in different time periods.

  During the college entrance examination, all kinds of large-scale meetings and activities were strictly controlled in Beijing. The municipal government calls on all sectors of society to minimize sports, entertainment, business promotion and other activities, and try to choose green travel modes to jointly create a good environment for the college entrance examination.

  In order to control noise disturbing people, Taiyuan Ecological Environment Bureau recently issued the Notice on Strengthening the Supervision and Management of Environmental Noise Pollution during the College Entrance Examination to strengthen the supervision of noise.

  In order to effectively control and reduce environmental noise and ensure the smooth progress of the college entrance examination in Taiyuan, the Taiyuan Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment will organize the comprehensive administrative law enforcement team of ecological environmental protection and various environmental protection sub-bureaus to strengthen the inspection of environmental noise sources.

  Changsha is clear, in order to ensure the smooth traffic in the city during the college entrance examination, from June 5 to 8, the Changsha public security traffic police department organized police forces to go deep into the test sites and surrounding areas, comprehensively investigate traffic chaos, and work with relevant departments to clean up and rectify the phenomenon of illegal occupation of roads and illegal car business.

  At the same time, during the college entrance examination, the traffic police department in Changsha will send more police officers on duty on the roads around the school to timely guide the vehicles that are sent to and taken from the test. After the test begins, traffic control will be implemented on the roads around the test center schools, and the ban on motor vehicles will be strictly enforced.

  Strict examination discipline: all localities make moves to prevent cheating

  Maintaining examination discipline has always been the top priority of the college entrance examination every year.

  As early as April, the Ministry of Education issued the "Notice on Doing a Good Job in Enrollment of Colleges and Universities in 2019". The "Notice" proposes to improve the working mechanism of joint defense, joint control and joint management, and focus on special actions such as purifying the network environment involved in the examination, cracking down on the sale of cheating equipment, purifying the surrounding environment of the test center, and cracking down on cheating in the test, so as to comprehensively manage the examination environment.

  The Notice also emphasizes that it is necessary to strengthen the management of the whole process from the preparation, transportation, storage and distribution to the examination to ensure the absolute safety of the examination papers. Strengthen the daily maintenance and upgrading of standardized test sites, upgrade and improve various technical measures, strictly organize the examination and management of examination rooms, and strengthen the supervision of examination style and discipline.

  At the local level, for example, Gansu recently proposed to severely crack down on the cheating of teachers and students in school.

  Gansu Education Examinations Institute requires that all colleges and universities should strictly take time off during the college entrance examination. If it is really necessary to take time off due to special circumstances, the reasons should be checked clearly and registered for future reference. It is necessary to strengthen the legal education of teachers and students, so that the majority of teachers and students can fully understand and understand the harm of participating in the college entrance examination fraud to themselves and society, consciously safeguard the good order of the college entrance examination, and resolutely resist the college entrance examination fraud.

  The criminal investigation department of Changsha public security organs will focus on the investigation of cases involving "exam-aiding" gangs and fraud gangs involved in exams, and severely crack down on illegal and criminal activities such as cheating in exams, selling test papers, illegally enrolling students and using the college entrance examination to engage in intermediary fraud.

  During the examination, Changsha will set up a security team at each test center in accordance with the requirements of "one-point-one-group", equipped with a patrol police car and four patrol police forces to deal with all kinds of emergencies that affect the safety of test centers in time.

  High-tech means will continue to be used in invigilation this year. For example, a brand-new examination command center will be launched in Qingdao this year, and an intelligent video invigilator system will be used for the first time. Every nine examination rooms will be equipped with a video invigilator to supervise the examination room in all directions.

  Be careful of these college entrance examination scams and rumors!

  Every year, on the eve of the college entrance examination, there will always be some old news and news of the college entrance examination that have been repeatedly proved to be false on the Internet, misleading candidates and the public.

  To this end, on the 5th, the education department, the online information department and the public security organs combed and summarized five college entrance examination scams or rumors, including "You can spend money to buy exam questions and answers", "Looking for candidates who have lost the admission ticket", "The marking teacher only cares about the progress, regardless of right or wrong", "Big data volunteers, charging sky-high consulting fees" and "You can spend money to change the results of the college entrance examination".

  The three departments stressed that the college entrance examination questions belong to the national top secret materials, and their storage and transportation have strict management measures, and all personnel who contact the examination papers are subject to closed management.

  The majority of candidates and parents should not be lucky, and do not believe that the so-called college entrance examination questions and answers are obtained in advance. Buying so-called "true college entrance examination questions" and "top secret answers" online are all false information released by scammers. It is illegal to buy classified materials, so don’t try.

  In addition, the three departments also reminded that online posts claiming to be able to modify college entrance examination scores are purely scams.

  The so-called hacker intrusion modification score is not technically feasible. Because the online marking of college entrance examination is not on the internet, but on the intranet, there is no possibility of external hacking. Before the candidates’ scores are released, the original data are archived and backed up in different places. After being released through the network, the examination institute will monitor and match the online information, and the websites will set up a strict anti-hacker virus attack system.

French Top Ten Women List Released Movie Star Sophie Marceau List [Photos]

  The results of a "Top Ten Women" selection in France recently came out. Rashida Datti, the beautiful minister of justice who will be kicked out of the cabinet by President Sarkozy, topped the list, while Bruni, the "first lady", could hardly compete with her, with only the eighth place.


  Beauty minister is in the limelight.


  According to the report, the best women in the French’s mind obviously have considerable international influence, and most of the selected figures are well-known, including veteran movie stars brigitte bardot and catherine deneuve.


  The 43-year-old Rashida Datti has always had a high-profile image as a "Dior-wearing female attorney general", and a series of recent storms, including her "deeds" such as returning to work five days after giving birth to a daughter and announcing that she will resign in June this year under the pressure of President Sarkozy, have kept her quite high exposure.


  According to the report, the French voted Datti as the "best woman" not only because of her fashion, beauty and sexy image, but also because of her toughness, independence and vitality in her political career. French feminist historian Florence Montereno commented on her, "Rashida Datti is ambitious, decisive and active", which made her vote rate as high as 26%.


  The top ten are almost all mature women.


  It is rumored in French tabloids that Bruni, the "first lady", is very concerned about the close relationship between Datti and Sarkozy. It is even reported that Sarkozy made the decision to kick Datti out of the cabinet at Bruni’s behest. However, Bruni, who was born as a supermodel, was much inferior to Datti in this selection. With 16% of the votes, she not only failed in the top three, but also ranked eighth. However, this may have something to do with Bruni’s birthplace in Italy. Bruni became a French citizen after her "flash marriage" with Sarkozy last year.


  It is reported that the "Top Ten Women" in France are generally older, and the only one in the top ten who is under 40 years old is another beauty in Sarkozy’s cabinet-French Minister of Human Rights Rama Yade.


  France’s "Top Ten Women" list:



1. Rashida Datti, 43, French Minister of Justice.



2. Sophie Marceau, 42 years old, is a French movie star.

59 people in South Korea died after being vaccinated with influenza. Can they be vaccinated safely?

According to South Korean media reports, as of October 26, South Korea has reported 59 deaths after influenza vaccination. Although people are worried and the number of people vaccinated has dropped sharply, the government has not stopped.

South Korean President Moon Jae in said at the meeting in Cheongwadae that there was no direct causal relationship between the deaths after influenza vaccination and vaccination. In order to prevent influenza and the simultaneous infection and spread of influenza and COVID-19, it is necessary to continue to expand the scope of influenza vaccination. I hope that people will not be too upset, miss the timely vaccination, and accidentally catch the flu with a high mortality rate, which will lead to greater danger.

It is reported that most of the cases that died after influenza vaccination were elderly people over 70 years old, and the shortest death was 4 hours after vaccination, and a 17-year-old boy died 2 days after vaccination.

Every winter and spring is the high-incidence season of influenza. At present, the whole world is in the epidemic stage of COVID-19. Academician Wang Chen, Dr. Zhang Wenhong and other experts recommend influenza vaccination to avoid catching the flu, reduce the chance of going to a fever clinic, and also reduce the chance of co-infection of two viruses and reduce a hidden danger.

Therefore, there are many people in China who want to get the flu vaccine, and there is a great demand for the vaccine. So, how can we vaccinate safely?

Why do vaccination have serious adverse reactions?

First of all, one thing must be affirmed: the vaccine ingredients contained in the flu vaccine will not cause the flu.

But at the same time, as a medicine, influenza vaccine is not absolutely safe. There are a lot of possible adverse reactions, such as redness, induration, pain and burning sensation at the inoculation site. A few people may have systemic reactions, such as fever, headache, dizziness, lethargy, fatigue, myalgia, general discomfort, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Most people’s adverse reactions are mild, which can disappear by themselves within 3 days. Serious adverse reactions are very rare. There is no difference in safety between tetravalent influenza vaccine and trivalent influenza vaccine; There is no significant difference in safety between domestic and imported influenza vaccines. Adverse reactions may be related to the following three reasons:

One is immune response. Because influenza vaccine is a medicine made by processing, inactivating, sterilizing and cracking influenza virus, it will simulate the immune response induced by real virus and promote the body to produce antibodies, which is often accompanied by various adverse reactions.

Second, trace endotoxin and impurities may remain in the process of influenza vaccine production and preparation.

Third, it may be a coupling reaction. That is to say, when the flu vaccine is injected, it may just be the incubation period of other diseases, and after the flu vaccine is injected, the disease will break out.

No matter what causes it, if the body’s immune response is too intense, or the original disease is aggravated and serious, and it is not treated in time and properly, serious adverse reactions may occur.

One of the serious adverse reactions is Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS). The annual incidence of GBS in the general population is 10 ~ 20 cases per 1 million adults, which is very rare.

The other is immediate hypersensitivity. Any vaccine has the risk of immediate hypersensitivity. Severe anaphylaxis may be life-threatening, and it usually occurs within minutes to hours after inoculation. Its symptoms include urticaria, angioedema, severe anaphylaxis, etc. The incidence rate is usually 1-2 cases per million people.

Two types of people prone to adverse reactions

Adverse reactions after influenza vaccination may be related to the sensitivity of the immune system of people of different ages. Because children and young people are more sensitive, a slight invasion of harmful substances such as viruses will trigger obvious immune reactions, so the probability of adverse reactions will increase; On the other hand, with the increase of age, the elderly are prone to chronic pain, which is stubborn and difficult to treat. Therefore, all kinds of pain after vaccination will be covered up by chronic pain, so they think that they have no adverse reactions and delayed treatment.

Children: The probability of adverse reactions after influenza vaccination is higher than that of adults, and the most common one is fever. The younger the age, the higher the probability of fever, but it usually disappears on its own after 1-2 days of vaccination. At the same time, the risk of febrile convulsion in children within 1 ~ 2 days after vaccination will also increase.

Elderly: The most common adverse events in adults include injection site pain, fever, myalgia and headache; In the elderly, the pain at the inoculation site is the most common, but the duration is generally less than 2 days, and the degree is usually slight, which basically does not affect daily activities.

A large number of data show that vaccination with inactivated influenza vaccine will not harm pregnant women and fetuses, and will not increase the risk of congenital malformation of fetuses.

Precautions for vaccination

Contraindications for influenza vaccination are those who are allergic to any ingredients (including excipients, formaldehyde, cracking agents and antibiotics) contained in the vaccine; Patients with mild to moderate acute diseases with or without fever symptoms are advised to be vaccinated after the symptoms subside.

It should also be noted that people who are allergic to eggs are not taboo at present, so people who are allergic to eggs can be vaccinated against influenza.

Influenza vaccination can be given during the prevention and treatment of influenza antiviral drugs, and it is suggested that the elderly over 65 should be vaccinated with influenza vaccine and pneumococcal vaccine at the same time.

The common causes of adverse reactions are fasting and psychological factors, and the treatment methods are drinking warm sugar water, keeping warm and keeping a quiet and comfortable environment, and making appropriate psychological adjustment. Local pain and redness can be treated with local dry and hot compress; Respiratory symptoms such as dry mouth and cough can be relieved by drinking warm water.

However, if you feel unwell after vaccination, you should communicate with the doctor of the vaccination institution in time. If the symptoms have not subsided for more than 3 days, you should see a doctor in time.

In a word, influenza has always been an infectious disease that is harmful to health. Now it is the epidemic period in COVID-19. Vaccination of influenza can not only protect itself from influenza virus infection, but also play a good barrier role in the occurrence of influenza in groups. Influenza vaccination should be actively carried out, especially for high-risk groups such as the elderly, children and pregnant women.

2020 Public Relations Company TOP50

Born extraordinary, each has its own light.

The ubiquitous and ever-present public relations communication behavior can be the art of vertical and horizontal cooperation, the warm offensive that directly reaches people’s hearts, and the "hardest scale" when turning "crisis" into "opportunity". Born extraordinary, each has its own light.

In today’s era, there are only a few enterprises that "make a fortune by muffling their voices", and the law that "the fragrance of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley" has quietly lost its former charm. Most enterprises are trying their best to build brand image and spare no effort to promote their products. Therefore, "who am I, where do I come from and where do I go?" This eternal philosophical problem has become an unavoidable question for many enterprises in the process of development.

Harold lasswell, a famous American political scientist, put forward the formula of five factors in the communication process in 1948-"Who? Say what? Through what channels? To whom? What effect has it produced? " -It is a simple mode to solve the above problems through one-way communication. Therefore, public relations communication plays an increasingly important role in the communication means of many enterprises.

In the Internet age when the public relations communication industry is increasingly diversified, internet plus’s public relations communication behavior, which takes two-way communication as the cause and effect, is increasingly popular, and at the same time, the industry has entered the best moment of its development.

As the saying goes, those who struggle are the first. The emergence of classic cases depends on the collective wisdom of the public relations communication team, and the prosperity of the public relations communication industry comes from the convergence of individual forces contributed by different enterprises. 

Blue cursor

In the era of big data and social media, Blue Cursor has positioned itself as a marketing technology company that fully empowers the smart management of enterprises in the era of big data and social networks. Blue Cursor has been seeking innovation and change. Zhao Wenquan, chairman and CEO of Blue Cursor, said that Blue Cursor should quickly integrate the two capabilities of "creative service content" and "product technical resources" into a new capability.

On December 11th, 2019, Blue Label Media, a subsidiary of Blue Cursor, and Branded Cities, a North American company with many core outdoor media resources, announced the establishment of an exclusive partnership in China. The cooperation will include outdoor large-screen resources such as Nasdaq and Reuters located in Times Square, new york, USA, which will open a new beginning of outdoor integration resources and help China brand win overseas.

Blue Cursor is committed to providing one-stop marketing solutions for China brands. At present, in addition to existing media online resources such as Facebook, Google, Twitter, etc., Blue Label Media continues to explore and enrich resources or services in different fields, such as overseas online red, outdoor big screen, offline activities and PR, so as to provide customers with integrated marketing solutions.

Blue Cursor, which has been committed to transforming into a technology marketing company, aims to expand new business by relying on four engines: capital engine, customer engine, creative ability engine and data and algorithm engine, with a view to creating higher-value services for customers. 

If you are new, new and new, the blue cursor is the key to becoming an adult.

Ji heng Rui zhi spread group

With the continuous development of science and technology, traditional communication methods such as television and radio are gradually being replaced by new generation communication methods such as social circles and short videos. However, no matter how the carrier is updated and iterated, how to strengthen brand transformation and expand brand effect is still the core of brand concern.

In view of this, Jiheng Ruizhi Communication Group can achieve accurate positioning analysis by constantly gaining insight into the user’s trends and exploring the user’s needs, and at the same time keep pace with the times, which can gain effective attention for the brand and realize the greatest transformation.

Two years ago, the positioning communication made by Jiheng Ruizhi Communication Group for Debon Express was once praised by the industry, and the brand positioning obtained by Debon Express was "big-piece express". Such positioning information needs to be effectively transmitted to small B enterprises, which forms dislocation competition with other express delivery companies, making Debon Express a category representative of "big-piece express".

As the relevant person of Jiheng Ruizhi Communication Group said, to transform the strategic description of Debon Express’s "commitment" into communication language and form a "cultural hot word" that small B enterprises feel depends on the data ability and the "feel" of Jiheng Ruizhi Communication Group in the communication context. 

Jiheng Ruizhi Communication Group constantly explores the new development law behind marketing by finding common ways. With a more professional and international marketing perspective, it opens a new chapter in marketing and sets a benchmark for industry innovation, so as to better meet the new innovation needs of its partners. 

The so-called know yourself and know yourself. The success of Jiheng Ruizhi Communication Group can not be separated from its service to customers.

As one of the large-scale well-known commercial marketing organizations in China, Jiheng Ruizhi Communication Group has helped many well-known brands to create one marketing method close to users in line with the user-centered concept.

Suoxiang 

Suoxiang is famous for building many Fortune 500 companies, and its classic marketing cases are also emerging one after another. In recent years, integrated marketing communication cases of well-known domestic brands such as Nongfu Spring, Jinjiu, Xijiu and Geely have been created.

As the saying goes, get on the horse and give a ride. Suoxiang is willing to spend eight years escorting customers. Its "five-oriented" strategic integrated marketing plan tailored for People’s Electric Appliances finally escorted People’s Electric Appliances into the ranks of China’s top 500 brands, and at the same time made it rank among the top 500 mechanical enterprises in the world. 

The survival of the fittest is the only way to compete in shopping malls, and the law of the jungle is also the cruel reality of industry competition. Therefore, Suoxiang focuses its business on serving small and medium-sized enterprises, and 60% of its business comes from small and medium-sized enterprises. It is always Suoxiang’s unchanging sense of responsibility and initial intention to help small and medium-sized enterprises develop and become bigger and stronger. 

Lu Yongfeng, the founder and chairman of Suoxiang Marketing Communication Group, has a keen insight into the weakness and helplessness exposed by small and medium-sized enterprises in the fierce industry competition during the cooperation with them. He believes that it is more necessary for professional marketing consulting companies to tailor them to find problems and overcome them, so as to achieve results. 

It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, which is the new realm that Suoxiang is striving for. 

Addition and subtraction of public relations communication industry in the internet age 

At present, there is a serious division between two levels of public relations companies. Some companies are flourishing, and some companies have gradually lost their advantages in the fierce competition. On the whole, local public relations companies are more flexible. Blue Cursor has created an online university exclusive to marketers, Blue Label University, International Hengruizhi Communication Group, Xuan Ya International and other integrated resources, and has a better alliance network. Disi, Lingsi and Haitang are actively transforming, and international brands such as Ogilvy and Weida still exist.

The development and prosperity of the Internet has opened up a new "battlefield" for public relations, in which the competition among public relations companies will only be more intense and cruel. It must be hard to strike the iron. Only by adding and subtracting according to our own situation can we go into battle lightly in the era of big data. Relevant companies in the public relations and communication industry have also explored some "playing methods" that can be followed in the future. 

First, make good use of high-quality media platforms. As we all know, it is very cost-effective to publish, generate and share favorite social content. Therefore, we should learn to use the new media platform to form a large-scale communication effect. In recent years, the practice of international brand advertisements entering the WeChat circle of friends is worthy of praise. 

Second, assume corporate social responsibility. Show your talents in times of crisis. In the national mobilization of all directions to help Wuhan, China enterprises are a mighty division. In the future, more brands will follow, and public relations practitioners should focus more on promoting positive initiatives, such as social, political and environmental issues. 

Third, the content is that king is king. In the Internet age, public relations communication can be spread through various media channels, and then trust can be established with the target customer groups. In the past, many enterprises pushed commercial advertising content lacking authenticity for users through technical intervention and search engine optimization, which seriously affected the user experience, but this caused the loss of customers to some extent. Therefore, the types of soft articles and commercial content published by enterprises should be more reasonable and authentic, and show more real content to the target audience as much as possible. 

Fourth, formulate diversified news release strategies. At present, users have more choices in obtaining news channels. In order to help enterprises gain a better brand image, we should formulate a set of scientific and reasonable news release strategies for enterprises and regularly release high-quality news releases, which can not only achieve better marketing communication effect by combining news hotspots, but also play an important role in corporate public relations management module. 

Fifth, engage in social listening. Controlling narrative is very important for brand development. With the right tools and strategies, social listening can effectively control the public relations crisis or solve the problems concerned by customers. Successful crisis public relations is an important opportunity to turn "crisis" into "opportunity".

Go to the army to cut the plot, and then cut the hand. 

No matter how the times develop, science and technology are all tools to boost the development of the industry, and the two unchanging magic weapons may still be: 1. Values and 2. Logic.

Deconstructing the four fallacies of "decoupling theory"

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, December 26th(International Observation) Deconstructing the Four Fallacies of Decoupling Theory

  Xinhua news agency reporter

  Since the beginning of this year, some political and economic forces in the United States and the West, together with the media, have encouraged western enterprises to "decouple from China", and sometimes said that China’s economic fluctuations are "worrying".

  When encouraging "decoupling from China", it tried its best to dwarf the global position of China’s economy; While hyping the so-called "China’s economy is a drag on the world", it also talks about the international influence of China’s economy. This self-inconsistent decoupling theory, like the so-called China’s economic collapse theory and threat theory, violates economic laws and is divorced from objective reality, exposing the fallacies of some western politicians’ zero-sum thinking, going against the general trend, harming others and misreading China.

  The fallacy of zero-sum thinking

  Advocating "decoupling theory" is rooted in the zero-sum thinking of some people. They can’t tolerate the success of non-Western development model, regard China as a competitor rather than a partner, and use "decoupling" as a new weapon against China.

  Surab Gupta, a senior researcher at the Center for Sino-American Studies, an American think tank, pointed out that a few western countries promoted "decoupling" to contain China, and their zero-sum obsession was exactly the same as during the Cold War, but now western countries and China share many common interests, and it is not in the interests of all parties to handle economic and trade relations with China with zero-sum thinking.

  On the issue of economic development, the United States and the West have always boasted that the market economy is "noble and decent", packaged the western model as the "only" development truth, used to discourse hegemony, peddled and sold the western model everywhere, and attempted to profit from it by controlling the development of other countries. Once other countries refuse to submit, they will be discredited and isolated and labeled as "non-market economy" and "distorted competition".

  From Latin American debt trap to Russian-style "shock therapy", from Southeast Asian financial crisis to international financial crisis, from provoking trade disputes with China to advocating "decoupling theory" … … Looking back at the "history of crisis manufacturing" of American and western powers in the past decades, its black hand of instigating chaos, violating the market and creating fragmentation has never stopped.

  During this period, China followed the laws of the market, based on the national conditions and world conditions, successfully embarked on the road of Chinese modernization, and also provided a brand-new choice for countries and nations in the world who wanted to speed up their development and maintain their independence.

  It should be noted that if China blindly covers up the truth and slanders China’s economy without a bottom line just because it has not developed according to the western script, it will not only mislead some market players and miss the opportunity of win-win cooperation with China, but also will eventually bite the credibility of the rumor mongers themselves.

  The fallacy of violating the general trend

  Some people in the West actively "build momentum" around "decoupling" from China, but ignore and go against the "general trend" of economic globalization that China’s development conforms to.

  The 5th China International Import Expo held in November this year attracted a large number of merchants, attracting 145 countries, regions and international organizations to participate, including about 200 American enterprises. This is another footnote for economic globalization to show its resilience and vitality under the headwind of protectionism.

  Compared with those western politicians and media who often clamor for "decoupling theory", pragmatic global enterprises actively embrace the China market with practical actions. Craig Allen, President of u.s.-china business council, said that American enterprises are very satisfied with the achievements of their participation in China International Import Expo(CIIE) in recent years, and all want to expand the exhibition area.

  For decades, economic globalization has promoted the continuous expansion of industrial chain, value chain and supply chain, and the global flow of production factors has provided strong impetus for the world economy and converged into an irresistible trend of globalization.

  According to data from the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, global trade reached US$ 28.5 trillion last year, an increase of 25% over 2020 and 13% higher than that in 2019 before the COVID-19 outbreak; The global trade volume is expected to reach a record level of about 32 trillion US dollars in 2022; Last year, the global foreign direct investment (FDI) increased by 64% to 1.58 trillion US dollars compared with 2020, which was also higher than the pre-epidemic level.

  While the decoupling theory is heating up, the economic and trade relations between China and the West are still deepening. According to data from the General Administration of Customs of China, the trade volume between China and the United States reached 4.88 trillion yuan in 2021, an increase of 20.2%; In the first 11 months of this year, the trade volume between China and the United States was 4.62 trillion yuan, up 4.8%, while the trade volume between China and Europe reached 5.17 trillion yuan, up 7.0%. China remains the largest trading partner of the EU, and the EU continues to be the second largest trading partner of China.

  Facts have proved that the global economy is already a "community", and the attempt to achieve "winner takes all" through an exclusive agreement or a protectionist policy is neither feasible nor feasible. It is the general trend that different economies are interdependent and win-win cooperation. As Vernon Smith, the Nobel laureate in economics, said, "All countries that strive to expand trade are and will always be winners."

  The fallacy of harming others and yourself

  Advocating "decoupling theory" reflects the plot of some people in the west to build high walls of small courtyards and enjoy development opportunities exclusively. The fact is, the more a country’s politicians are keen to advocate and practice the "decoupling theory", the more they will make their domestic enterprises and economy suffer, and the more they will add to the economic and trade partners and the world economy.

  The report released by the American Chamber of Commerce shows that "decoupling" from China seriously threatens the interests of the United States in the fields of trade, investment, services and industry: if tariffs are imposed on all goods exported from China to the United States, the US economy will lose 190 billion US dollars every year before 2025; American investors may lose $25 billion in capital gains each year due to "decoupling", and the gross domestic product (GDP) will lose up to $500 billion … …

  The Iff Institute for Economics, a German think tank, estimates that if EU enterprises are "decoupled" from China under American pressure, the trade volume between Germany and China will drop sharply. In the worst case, Germany’s GDP will be reduced by 0.81%, which is equivalent to six times the decline of Germany’s GDP when Britain left the European Union, or it will lead to economic downturn and mass unemployment.

  Colin Grabots, a trade expert at the Kaito Institution in the United States, said that preventing Americans from buying foreign products or bringing other countries into the supply chain would only deprive Americans of the long-term benefits of low inflation. Mark L. Busch, a professor at Georgetown University in the United States, also believes that trying to ensure the so-called supply chain security with protectionism will only make the United States suffer more losses.

  The Economist commented that if countries regress on the issue of globalization, it will not only seriously hurt the world economy, but also cause unforeseen new pain points.

  In fact, the policy tendency of "decoupling" used by some American politicians is undifferentiated and expanding, and it is beginning to bite the transatlantic supply chain relationship. Domestic legislation, such as the Inflation Reduction Act recently promulgated by the United States, has a strong unilateralism and protectionism, which has aroused the concern of many western economies. Many European leaders believe that the subsidy measures involved in the relevant bill seriously distort the market and harm European interests, which may lead to "closed markets" and "destruction of key supply chains that have been hit by the epidemic".

  Misreading China’s fallacy

  Advocating "decoupling theory" reflects the blind "self-confidence" of some people in the West who misread China and thought they could curb the development of China. They please domestic populist forces, constantly mislead public opinion around the topic of China, and completely ignore China’s great contribution to world economic prosperity and global supply chain stability.

  For decades, the process of China’s economic development and prosperity is not only a win-win cooperation between China and foreign countries, but also a continuous bankruptcy process of various western fallacies such as "China collapse theory" and "China threat theory". Like all previous fallacies, "decoupling theory" is just another "reverse indicator" reflecting the real situation of China’s economy and Sino-foreign relations.

  In the past decade, the proportion of China’s total economic output in the global economy has increased from 11.4% to more than 18%, and its contribution to world economic growth has remained at around 30% on the whole. The added value of manufacturing industry has increased from 22.5% to nearly 30% in the world, but the carbon dioxide emissions per unit GDP have decreased by about 34%. Building the largest social security system in the world and building a well-off society in an all-round way has historically solved the problem of absolute poverty.

  Today, China’s economy is on a road of higher quality, more efficient, fairer, more sustainable and safer development. Many overseas people and institutions believe that China’s economy has strong resilience, great potential and sufficient vitality, and will continue to provide a strong impetus for the recovery of the world economy.

  Jeffrey Sachs, a famous American economist, described "decoupling theory" as "naive" and "narrow-minded". He said that the "decoupling theory" transmits "wrong information", which goes against the actual needs of the world. In the long run, the development momentum of China is "very positive". Western countries should not put pressure on China in the fields of technology and trade, or even clamor for "decoupling". Instead, they should actively cooperate with China and seek a win-win situation.

  Sharif Ghali, head of the Department of Politics and International Relations at the University of Abuja, believes that China’s influence is increasing and its position in the global supply chain cannot be replaced. The so-called "decoupling from China" is an unrealistic dream. China’s success has made developing countries’ right to speak internationally continuously, making globalization fairer and more inclusive. "Decoupling" from China means decoupling from opportunities and future.

  Practice has proved that win-win cooperation and common development among all countries are the right way. Superstition in the law of the jungle will only aggravate the development rift, lead to polarization between the rich and the poor, widen the North-South gap and hinder global development. Only by insisting on opening up for development, holding hands instead of letting go, tearing down walls instead of building walls, replacing zero-sum games with dialogue and cooperation, and replacing closed exclusivity with openness and tolerance, can all countries gather the majestic power of win-win cooperation and walk on the bright road of common development.
