The second phase of the 121st Canton Fair opened in Guangzhou yesterday. Unlike in previous years, when exhibitors competed for foreign orders in the exhibition hall, a team holding the banner of "Before relying on foreigners, now relying on Netease YEATION-10 billion procurement funds waiting for you" was particularly eye-catching yesterday.
"I have generally only seen exhibitors advertise to grab orders, but buyers have never seen anything that attracts exhibitors’ attention." A domestic buyer who has participated in the Canton Fair for five consecutive years said so.
At present, China’s foreign trade shows obvious signs of stabilization, but many foreign trade enterprises are still struggling to cope with uncertainties such as rising cost factors. As a representative of domestic ODM e-commerce, Netease YEATION made a high-profile "anti-grab" China manufacturers at the Canton Fair. On the one hand, Netease YEATION, which focuses on quality products, explored its own needs for high-quality supplier resources; On the other hand, with the obvious trend of domestic consumption upgrading, foreign trade enterprises that had advantages in production quality have a better market opportunity to explore the domestic market.
Foreign trade is picking upBut enterprisesStill havenip/chill in the air
According to the data released by the General Administration of Customs on April 13th, in the first quarter of 2017, China’s import and export of goods reached 6.2 trillion yuan, up 21.8% year-on-year. This is the year-on-year growth of China’s total import and export value for three consecutive quarters since the second half of last year.
However, Lu Wenbo, general manager of Guangzhou Puxin International Trade Co., Ltd., an exhibitor of Canton Fair, is still unhappy. Lu Wenbo’s company is mainly engaged in exporting refrigerators and air-conditioning compressors. Last year, with the depreciation of RMB and the recovery of emerging market countries in the United States and Southeast Asia, the company’s turnover increased to a certain extent, but its profits were compressed. "But because the price of steel doubled last year, and packaging materials such as plastics also rose sharply, the production cost rose, and we had to give up some profit margins to maintain our competitiveness."
Xu Bing, spokesman of Canton Fair and deputy director of China Foreign Trade Center, also reminded that since the beginning of this year, China’s foreign trade has continued the good momentum of stabilization and improvement since last year, and new development momentum is accumulating. However, the current world economic recovery is weak, the market demand has not been fundamentally improved, and "anti-globalization" has obviously risen. China’s domestic comprehensive factor costs are rising, and the traditional advantages of foreign trade are weakening. The foreign trade situation is still complicated and grim, and it still needs hard work to consolidate the stable and good momentum of foreign trade.
According to the report "Trade Statistics and Outlook" released by the World Trade Organization (WTO), the growth rate of global trade is expected to expand to 2.4% this year, and the uncertainty of major economies’ policies will curb trade activities. Higher inflation rate will lead to higher interest rates, and tighter fiscal policies and trade barriers will slow down trade growth in the next two years.
Exit turnOpportunities for domestic sales opportunities
When the reporter visited the museum, he learned that in order to share the potential risks brought by foreign trade uncertainties, some foreign trade enterprises not only choose emerging markets, but also actively promote the domestic market with great potential.
In fact, it is nothing new to talk about "exporting to domestic sales" at the Canton Fair. As early as 2009, when experiencing the global economic crisis, opening up the domestic market was an important topic for foreign trade enterprises. In that year, the Canton Fair even set up a domestic procurement center for the first time to invite domestic buyers to help foreign trade enterprises "save the market".
Exhibitor Yang Chongyi’s company is mainly engaged in the production of thermos cups for export. In addition to OEM for overseas brands, the company has launched its own brand since 2003, and the sales channels are very mature. Except for the layout of physical supermarkets, Tmall and JD.COM have opened flagship stores, but what makes Yang Chongyi a little helpless is that products with almost the same materials and quality can hardly sell at a good price as long as they are China brands and China designs.
Some exhibitors believe that with the general trend of domestic consumption upgrading, the ranks of the middle class are getting bigger. This group demands itself with high standards, and consumption preferences are beginning to be related to quality of life, emotional factors, personalization and sense of design. It is more appropriate to talk about "export to domestic sales" now.
"It can be said that the manufacturers at the Canton Fair have been doing OEM work for foreign countries, so their production capacity is very strong. Many of them have their own R&D centers and are very familiar with the needs of consumers in China. The Canton Fair has gathered the top domestic manufacturers. " Some domestic buyers said that although the foreign trade situation has stabilized, after this wave of economic crisis, many foreign trade factories have realized that they can’t rely solely on foreign markets. In addition, after the domestic consumption upgrade, Chinese people are more willing to pay for the quality of goods, and the "export goods" with high quality and price can also have a market in China.
Yang Feng Jianmin, an exhibitor, is the deputy general manager of a scissors manufacturing enterprise in Yangjiang. In the past, this enterprise was 100% an export order and contracted for a German brand. Two years ago, Feng Jianmin and his company participated in the Canton Fair, with the intention of expanding more overseas business. Surprisingly, it opened up domestic sales channels by mistake.
"At the Spring Fair last year, the head of Netease YEATION visited the Canton Fair to find high-quality domestic suppliers, and just came to our booth. After learning that we were OEM scissors for a famous German brand, we hit it off and started cooperation. Before that, we never took orders for domestic sales."
At present, the company has launched two scissors products in Netease YEATION, with the price ranging from 10 yuan to 20 yuan. With the same technology and materials, the price of scissors products manufactured by the company for German brands has reached more than RMB in 200 yuan. With high cost performance, the sales of two scissors products are very hot, and the current sales volume has reached more than 30,000.
Netease YEATION Supply Chain Strategyleave first
However, the reporter also learned at the Canton Fair that although the prospect of "domestic consumption upgrading" is bright, some foreign trade-oriented enterprises with relatively weak capital can only try hard to meet the domestic market because of the different transaction methods, trading rules and settlement methods between domestic trade and foreign trade.
According to industry insiders who have been engaged in foreign trade for many years, the transaction process of foreign trade-oriented enterprises in the past was very simple. After receiving the order-proofing and confirming to the customer-auxiliary materials for production-production of bulk goods-inspection and shipment-payment was received. However, in the domestic market, when the brand cooperates with the supplier, it adopts the "361" payment method, that is, it is paid in stages according to 30% advance payment, 60% withdrawal payment and 10% quality guarantee. When the brand pays the remaining 10% of the mortgage, it will not only pay interest, but also often deduct the factory money, which will make the enterprises interested in domestic sales bear huge financial pressure risks.
In this regard, the relevant person in charge of Netease YEATION introduced that Netease YEATION has a special fund to pay the interest on withholding money to all cooperative suppliers, thus forming a benign cooperative relationship with suppliers and changing their long-term passive position. According to the industry practice, 10% of the payment will be paid as the quality guarantee, and Netease YEATION will pay the interest of this deposit to the supplier according to the bank interest rate.
It is reported that in addition to the above preferential interest policy, in order to ensure the stability of cooperation, CEO Ding Lei also said at the first supplier conference of Netease YEATION last year that in terms of orders, every cooperation between YEATION and suppliers will last at least 3 to 5 years, which is equivalent to giving suppliers a reassurance.
For the exhibitors in the Canton Fair, Netease YEATION, a model of direct supply of ODM products by suppliers, is a new attempt for them.
"The market competition for OEM of foreign big brands is becoming more and more fierce, and brands are pushing down prices too hard; The gross profit margin of supplying to YEATION is generally slightly higher than the traditional OEM model. " Ye Guoan’s handbag manufacturing co., Ltd. has been with Netease YEATION for one year. He said that although most of the company’s sales still come from the traditional OEM mode, he has decided to increase the scale of cooperation with YEATION, recommend several self-developed products to YEATION for shelf screening every quarter, and split the large workshop that was previously produced to match large orders into several small workshops to adapt to the rhythm of e-commerce and respond quickly. He feels that his identity has changed from a simple OEM to a strategic partner of YEATION, and his independent space has become larger.
"Maybe now is the best opportunity to bring foreign trade goods back to China and open up the domestic market." Ye Guoan said so.
Every time I go out to the clinic, there will be patients with HPV infection who ask me anxiously, "Will I get condyloma acuminatum?" Will you get cervical cancer? Doctor, what should I do? " .
Condyloma acuminatum is an embarrassing sexually transmitted disease, which is caused by HPV infection and easy to recur, which will have a great impact on patients’ body and mind. Cervical cancer, one of the common malignant tumors in women, is also mainly caused by HPV infection.
Therefore, when HPV infection is detected, many people will panic.
After being infected with HPV, you may not get it.
Condyloma Acuminatum and Cervical Cancer
1. Over 80% of women will be infected with HPV.
About more than 80% of women may be infected with HPV in their lifetime, but not all of them may develop condyloma acuminatum or cervical cancer.
2. There are many HPV types.
At present, more than 200 subtypes of HPV have been identified, of which more than 40 subtypes can spread through sexual contact and infect the anal genital area.
HPV can be divided into low-risk type and high-risk type according to the carcinogenic risk. 90% ~ 95% of condyloma acuminatum cases are caused by low-risk viruses HPV6 and HPV11, and high-risk HPV persistent infection (mainly HPV16 and HPV18) can progress to cancer.
3. After being infected with HPV, most of them can clear themselves.
According to some data, most people will detect HPV within one year after they have sexual contact with HPV.
In most immunocompetent people, genital infection is only temporary. Within 1 ~ 2 years after HPV infection, the infection can be cleared by oneself through their own immune resistance, which is medically called transient infection.
4. After infection, HPV may be latent and persistent in vivo.
A few people with normal immunity, or when the immunity is not enough to clear HPV, HPV virus will lurk in the body for a long time, which is called persistent infection in medicine.
If you already have condyloma acuminatum, the number and size of warts may increase after the first appearance of warts, or they may disappear on their own. HPV infection may persist even after the visible warts subside. Mechanical stimulation, injury, immunosuppression, inflammation and other extracellular factors will affect the copy number of virus in latent infected cells, which may lead to the recurrence of warts.
Persistent high-risk HPV infection may lead to cervical cancer, penile cancer, anal cancer’s disease, oral cancer and other diseases.
Pay attention to these four points after being infected with HPV.
After being infected with HPV, don’t be too nervous or ill, and the suggestions are as follows:
1. Timely medical treatment
Women who continue to be infected with HPV will go through a rather slow process if cervical lesions may occur in the future. Once the infection is found, they must go to a regular hospital in time, and if necessary, they can consider corresponding treatment measures to speed up the elimination of HPV infection and reduce related risks.
2. Regular review and detection of HPV, regular physical examination and screening.
After being infected with HPV, remember to regularly review and monitor HPV viral load and TCT. Regular physical examination and cancer screening, once the disease progresses, can be found early and treated early!
3. Vaccinate with HPV vaccine
The best time for vaccination is 9-13 years old recommended by the World Health Organization and 9-26 years old recommended by the United States. In short, before having sex, the earlier the vaccination, the better.
If you have been infected with HPV, you can also be vaccinated. Because the vaccine covers many types of HPV viruses, the infected HPV may only be one or several types, and it can still play a preventive role against some uninfected HPV viruses after vaccination.
4. Avoid other risk factors
The increase in the number of sexual partners and the unfixed sexual partners will significantly increase the probability of HPV infection and increase the risk of cervical cancer. Therefore, it is recommended that sexual partners be fixed and single, and they should be covered all the time.
In addition, pay attention to quit smoking, avoid multiple abortions, have a good sleep, eat a good meal, exercise more, maintain a positive and optimistic attitude and a happy mood, and enhance immunity.
Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, December 26 (Reporter Gao Jing) Since the beginning of this year, China has continued to promote the blue sky defense war, and the air pollution control in key areas has achieved remarkable results, but the air quality in some areas has fluctuated, and the concentration of PM2.5 has increased to varying degrees.
At the press conference held by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment that day, Liu Youbin, spokesperson of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, introduced this situation.
Liu Youbin said that air pollution control in key areas has achieved remarkable results. According to the latest data from the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, in November this year, the average number of excellent days in "2+26" cities in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei and surrounding areas was 63%, up 18.6 percentage points year-on-year; The concentration of PM2.5 was 63 μ g/m3, a year-on-year decrease of 25.9%.
He said that in addition to key areas, the quality of atmospheric environment in other areas has also improved significantly. From January to November 2019, the average concentration of PM2.5 in 261 cities with PM2.5 below the standard level and above was 38 μ g/m3, which was 22.4% lower than that in the same period of 2015, exceeding the progress requirements of the 13 th Five-Year Plan. Among them, Central China and Southwest China decreased by 22% and 13% respectively; The average concentration of PM2.5 in more than a dozen provinces such as Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Heilongjiang and Inner Mongolia changed from substandard to standard.
He also said that since the beginning of this year, air quality in some areas has fluctuated due to factors such as insufficient work pressure transmission and ineffective response to heavy polluted weather. For example, in the border area of Jiangsu, Anhui and Lu Yu where the "2+26" city and the Yangtze River Delta meet, the concentration of PM2.5 in Hunan and other places has increased to varying degrees.
In response to the above situation, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment timely organized a symposium on air quality early warning and joint prevention and control of regional air pollution, carried out air quality early warning on a quarterly basis, and interviewed areas with serious pollution rebound. At present, the rebound of pollution in some areas has been effectively curbed.
Liu Youbin said that in the next step, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment will continue to guide all localities to accurately control pollution, scientifically control pollution, and control pollution according to law to ensure the successful completion of the goals of the blue sky defense war. The first is to implement the working mechanism of "early warning, interview and accountability" and carry out special inspections in areas where air quality has deteriorated significantly and the progress of binding indicators has lagged behind. The second is to strengthen guidance and assistance to cities in non-key areas, and strengthen regional joint prevention and control of cross-regional pollution problems. The third is to strengthen the response to heavy pollution weather, guide local governments to implement performance grading and differentiated control, and effectively reduce the impact of heavy pollution weather.

As double 11 approaches, many people have already filled their shopping carts with health care products in advance, just waiting for the zero discount time to start shooting. Among them, one of the hottest and most publicized commodities is probably imported joint health care products. However, the latest research proves that the key ingredients in joint health care products may not be as useful as placebos. At the same time, because its formula changes at will, its medicinal properties and toxicity are also difficult to monitor. Friends who want to buy such health care products at special prices need to think twice before you do.
Today’s two articles bring together some kinds of goods that should be bought carefully or even not. Among them, the e-cigarettes that we strongly warned about were completely removed from Taobao and Tmall on November 6. So far, the online sales platform has completely banned the sale of e-cigarettes.

Maybe you exercise a lot, maybe you need to sit still for a long time because of your work, or maybe you are old. In either case, the concept of protecting your joints must be familiar.
Known as a health care product that is good for joints, the most popular brand at present is Move Free, which is a brand of Schiff, a famous American health care company. Common models are as follows:

Costco, a famous American supermarket, also has several kinds that people often buy.

The main components of these drugs are glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate. Some of them are added with vitamin D or an organic sulfur compound: dimethyl sulfone (MSM, an essential substance for human collagen synthesis).
Glucosamine claims to "strengthen, protect and rebuild joints", while chondroitin sulfate "can help lubricate and cushion joints", thus finally relieving joint pain, joint stiffness and arthritis.
I believe everyone has read many online articles recommending this health care product (the screenshot is omitted here).
However, are glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate really good for joints?
One study after another published in authoritative magazines shows that glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate health care products have no effect on joints. Even in the United States, there are several class actions, accusing the manufacturers of these health care products of making false advertisements, misleading and deceiving ordinary consumers [1, 2].
Photo: In June 2019, consumers collectively sued Schiff Move Free for false advertising and formally filed a case. [2]
A series of studies, the answer is getting clearer and clearer.
The most famous research is called Gait (Glucosamine/Chondroitin Arthritis Intervention Trial), which took four years and cost $12.5 million. It was funded by two departments under the National Institutes of Health (NIH), namely National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) and National Institute of Arthritis/Musculoskeletal/Dermatology (NIAMS).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate are effective in the treatment of osteoarthritis.
Let’s take out these studies and analyze them for everyone.
one
This study was published in the authoritative medical journal New England Medicine in 2006 [3].
A total of 1583 patients with osteoarthritis were recruited and randomly assigned to take:
Placebo (the same shape as medicine, but without the ingredients of medicine, it can be simply understood as sugar ball)
1,500 milligrams of glucosamine per day
1200 mg chondroitin sulfate per day
1500 mg glucosamine +1200 mg chondroitin sulfate per day
200 mg of prescription drug celebrex (an analgesic used to relieve pain for arthritis and other diseases) every day.
It is worth noting that this dose is the dose of glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate in popular health care products at that time. It is emphasized here that there was a reason for the dose in health care products at that time, which will be further explained later.
If the patient feels that the joint pain is still uncontrollable, he can take up to 4000 mg of acetaminophen (the main component of Tylenol) every day.
The main purpose of the study is to see if the pain in the knee joint is reduced by 20% after taking the medicine for 24 weeks.
The result is as follows:
It can be seen that there is no significant difference between the group taking glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate and the placebo group.
However, it is worth noting that at 24 weeks, 60.1% (more than half) people who took placebos also felt that their symptoms had improved. This extraordinary placebo effect is often seen in clinical trials of arthritis. Without knowing what they are eating, patients think they are taking useful drugs, and strong psychological hints will make the pain less intense.
Source: The-Science-Site.com.
This trial is a good example to explain why clinical trials are rigorous only if they are randomized and double-blind. Randomized double-blind trials should make sure that there is basically no difference in appearance between the pills in the placebo group and the real pills. The people who eat them can’t guess what they are eating at all, and the people who collect data don’t know what each patient is eating, so as to ensure that there will be no bias in the data collection process.
After taking celebrex for 24 weeks, those who felt that their pain was reduced by 20% were about 10% higher than those in the placebo group, achieving a statistically significant effect. Once again, it proves that this prescription drug is effective.
Finally, the author of this study divided the patients into groups according to the severity of symptoms, and found that the combined therapy of 1500 mg glucosamine and 1200 mg chondroitin sulfate/day seems to have certain effect on patients with severe symptoms. However, it is worth noting that the number of volunteers with severe symptoms in this study is relatively small, and the sample size is too small to be conclusive, which needs further research to confirm.
2
So, these authors continued to study. The new results were published in the journal Arthritis and Rheumatism in 2008 [4]. We call it study 2 (the last one was called study 1).
The time of the second study was extended from 24 weeks to 24 months (two years), and the patients with severe symptoms were studied emphatically, because the last short-term trial found that the combination therapy of glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate might be useful for these patients.
572 patients with moderate or severe knee osteoarthritis were recruited and randomly divided into five groups:
placebo
Glucosamine (500 mg each time, 3 times a day: 1500 mg/day)
Chondroitin sulfate (400 mg each time, 3 times a day: 1200 mg/day)
Glucosamine (500 mg each time, 3 times a day)+chondroitin sulfate (400 mg each time, 3 times a day)
Celebrex (200 mg once a day)
The final effective index of this experiment is not the subjective pain feeling in the first experiment (this kind of patient’s feeling is the most prone to error), but the change of joint space width is determined by X-ray at 24 months. The more severe osteoarthritis is, the more cartilage loss is, and the smaller joint space is. If a drug can stop or even reverse the shortening of joint space, it can improve the joint structure and relieve symptoms.
Finally, in the second study, the average joint spacing of patients with osteoarthritis in the placebo group decreased by 0.166 mm after two years, which meant that osteoarthritis was aggravated.
Compared with placebo, glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate or their combination therapy did not significantly reduce the loss of joint space width (arthritis did not relieve).
The researchers even observed that the joint space shortening (arthritis aggravation) of combined therapy was more serious than that of other groups, probably because taking two drugs at the same time affected the absorption of each drug-and most health care products on the market mixed these two ingredients together.
three
The final result of the GAIT study was published in Rheumatology Annual Report in 2010 [5]. We call it study three.
The third study was similar to the first study, except that the experiment was extended from 24 weeks to 24 months.
This time, the researcher recruited 662 volunteers with moderate to severe osteoarthritis and randomly divided them into five groups as in the second paper. The main index is, as in the first study, to see whether the pain of knee joint is reduced by 20% compared with that before taking medicine.
The results of this long-term experiment are similar to those of study 1. All groups had significant pain and functional improvement within 2 years. However, no treatment is significantly better than placebo. There was no statistically significant difference between the treatment groups, which once again proved the powerful placebo effect.
The good news is that no serious side effects were observed in all the treatment groups-it seems that these drugs are safe to take for at least two years in this experiment.
GAIT research tells us:
1. The curative effect of glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate comes from strong psychological suggestion to a great extent. Even if you eat "sugar balls", if you think you are eating drugs that are useful for joints, more than half of people will feel that joint pain is reduced.
2. Taking glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate at the same time may affect the absorption of any single component.
3. Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate can not improve the shortening of joint space after illness.
four
The latest study on glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate was completed in 2016 [6]. This experiment recruited 164 patients with knee pain caused by osteoarthritis, and half of them took glucosamine (1500 mg/day) and chondroitin sulfate (1200 mg/day). The other half took a placebo.
However, the study was terminated early for an unusual reason: compared with the placebo group, the symptoms of patients who took glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate worsened.
Further than the previous three experimental results, this result suggests a terrible possibility: taking glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate may make the joint condition worse than doing nothing.
Move Free, hepatotoxicity?
I often hear friends around me say that most people eat health care products without any side effects. What if they eat them? If you don’t eat, don’t you miss that "one thousand" opportunity?
However, have you overlooked the "one thousand" harmful situation?
In fact, there are no published prospective studies on the efficacy, tolerance and safety of most health care products.
Remarks:
Prospective study usually involves observing a group of subjects for a long time, and studying whether some observed results (such as illness) are related to other factors (such as suspicious risks or protective factors) during the trial. The prospective study related to the safety of health products mentioned here is to observe whether a group of people who eat health products will have some adverse reactions related to eating health products.
This is because the ingredients of health care products are not strictly monitored by FDA, and the formula can be changed frequently. This not only makes it difficult to study its security, but also means that its security is even more insecure. Who knows which batch of formula will go wrong?
Take the current Schiff Move Free series products as an example.
If you look closely at the website of Schiff Nutrition International, the manufacturer of Move Free, you will find that there is a small line below:
“Our packaging and/or formulas change from time to time. Please refer to the actual packaging for current product information.”
Our packaging and/or formula will change from time to time. Please refer to the actual packaging for current product information. "
Figure: Composition description of a Move Free product on Schiff Nutrition International website.
At present, many cases have been reported, saying that patients taking Move Free have obvious liver damage in clinic.
In 2010, the first case report on liver injury caused by taking Move Free was published in the United States [7]. Subsequently, new cases were reported in August 2012 and September 2013. In these published cases, patients developed acute hepatocyte injury within 1-3 weeks after taking a Move Free product. The degree of injury is moderate and can be relieved within 1 to 2 months after stopping taking it; There is no immune allergy and autoimmune reaction, and it can finally recover completely in all cases. However, one patient resumed using the product when he was half well, and immediately developed acute liver injury with similar symptoms. In addition, although no more cases have been published, there are three prospective studies on drug-induced hepatotoxicity in the United States, all of which mentioned acute liver injury cases related to Move Free, all of which occurred in 2012-2013 [October 12].
The specific Move Free products mentioned in these cases at that time, in addition to the main glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate, also contained a patented herbal mixture, including China Scutellaria baicalensis and Acacia catechu.
These reports attributed the liver injury caused by Move Free to Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi in China [13], and only one case was attributed to glucosamine [11]. However, China Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi protects the liver in animal models, but not damages it [14-16]. Why can it cause human liver injury? The report did not reasonably explain its mechanism of liver injury. There is also a kind of explanation that the China Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi in Move Free contains pollutants, or maybe it is not China Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi at all (the manufacturer made a mistake and added a similar plant as China Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi).
Therefore, it is still uncertain what specific components may cause liver injury. Manufacturers often change the composition and concentration of health care products, so it is not certain whether the products currently on the market still contain these harmful ingredients. At present, Move Free series products no longer list "including China Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi and other herbal ingredients", but give a patented ingredient with a new name on some products, which is called "uniflex (fruitex-b calcium fruitoborate)", claiming to be a mineral extracted from vegetables and fruits.
What’s more noteworthy is that the content of chondroitin sulfate in the Move Free series products listed on the official website in the United States has been greatly reduced (see the figure below), and the dosage has been reduced from 1200mg per day to 200mg per day. There is no glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate in the Move Free Ultra series products, one of which only contains calcium and calcium borate, and the other contains a patented cartilage mixture. However, most of them are produced by different manufacturers, such as similar products of Kirkland brand sold by Costco, and the dosage is still 1500 mg of glucosamine and 1200 mg of chondroitin sulfate every day.

In addition, a small study in 2013 found that taking glucosamine may increase the risk of glaucoma, which will threaten vision if it is not treated in time [17]. Chondroitin sulfate can play the role of blood anticoagulant, so it may cause internal bleeding.
Another problem that is often overlooked is drug interaction: any combination of compounds may produce bad interactions. If you are taking other drugs, you must decide carefully whether to take health care products. Because they may not contain the amount indicated on the label, or they may contain pollutants-this will make it more difficult for you to accurately judge whether there will be drug interactions.
Other side effects of glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate include:
Heartburn, heartburn
feel tired and sleepy
headache
Allergic reaction (especially if you are allergic to shellfish)
What drugs/treatments are there for arthritis?
So far, there is no therapy or medicine that can cure arthritis.
There are many drugs that can be used to improve symptoms (mainly to relieve pain) and slow down the deterioration of the disease, but they cannot completely reverse the structural damage.
Because there are more than 100 different kinds of arthritis, each specific type of treatment is not exactly the same. We should prescribe the right medicine after diagnosis.
After the doctor looked around and guessed the type of arthritis he might have, there were two main methods for further diagnosis:
1. Body fluid analysis. Analyzing blood, urine and joint fluid can help determine what type of arthritis you may have. In order to obtain a sample of joint fluid, doctors usually need to put a needle into the joint space to suck some fluid.
2. Imaging analysis. Commonly used imaging methods include X-ray, CT, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound.
After confirming the type of arthritis, you may need to try several different treatments or combinations of treatments to find the one that suits you best.
There are usually three types of therapies: drugs, physical therapy and surgery.
01
medicine
Different types of arthritis, should use different drugs. Commonly used arthritis drugs include:
Analgesics These drugs help to relieve pain, but they can’t diminish inflammation. For example, acetaminophen (the main component of Tylenol), Ultram (Ultracet), and some strictly regulated painkillers (such as oxycodone).
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). These drugs can relieve pain and diminish inflammation at the same time. Over-the-counter NSAID include ibuprofen (Motrin) and naproxen sodium (Aleve). Some types of NSAID must be obtained by prescription. Oral NSAID may cause stomach upset, and some may increase the risk of heart attack or stroke. Some NSAID can also be rubbed on joints as creams or gels. I have talked about the points for attention in the use of Tylenol and Ibuprofen before.

Anti-irritant Some kinds of ointment contain menthol or capsaicin. Rubbing these ointments on the skin of painful joints may interfere with the transmission of pain signals, thus achieving the effect of relieving pain.
Antirheumatic drugs. Usually used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, it can slow down or prevent the immune system from attacking joints. Such as methotrexate (Trexall) and hydroxychloroquine.
Specific immune response modulators. It is usually used with anti-rheumatic drugs, which target certain protein molecules involved in immune response. Such as etanercept (Enbrel) and infliximab (Remicade).
Corticosteroids. These drugs, including prednisone and cortisone, can reduce inflammation and suppress the immune system. Corticosteroids can be administered orally or directly into joints.

physiotherapy
Physical therapy is helpful for some types of arthritis. Moderate exercise can improve and strengthen the muscles around the joints.
03
operation
If nothing works, it will be operated. Include joint repair or joint replacement.
04
Acupuncture, yoga, Tai Ji Chuan and massage.
There is little data to support these unconventional treatments, but there is no conclusive evidence that they are ineffective. You can look at your own reaction to see if you try.

Although there is no convincing data to prove that health products containing glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate are beneficial to joints, many people will buy and take them. Some people think that even if there is no effect from the overall data of the population, it may be useful for individuals because of some factors; Others believe that even if most of the effects come from the placebo effect, the benefits of the placebo effect are real and hard to give up.
However, the latest clinical results and several cases of side effects show that these health care products may also be harmful to health. Manufacturers often change the formula, and the actual ingredients and dosage may be far from what you expected.
Most types of arthritis are chronic and will affect life-long diseases. Knowing all kinds of risk factors (including obesity, sedentary lifestyle, eating habits, joint injuries, smoking, etc.), changing lifestyle and reducing the chance of getting sick are the best preventive measures. It is absolutely unacceptable to put all your hopes on health care products without fundamentally changing your living habits.

Recently, fraud cases caused by AI face-changing technology have attracted people’s attention. With the development of AI model, the application scope of "face changing" technology is getting wider and wider, and the breakthrough of technology also makes the facial expressions and action details of the characters after face changing more realistic, which may bring serious harm once it is used by criminals. The reporter’s investigation found that it is very easy to obtain AI face-changing software on the Internet. Where is the legal boundary of using AI face-changing software? How to supervise beforehand?
Paid AI face-changing software appears on the network.
Package prices range from 499 yuan to 2888 yuan.
At present, relying on the breakthrough of large models and algorithms, AI face-changing is realizing a wider range of applications, causing more concerns. On the internet, there are many tutorials demonstrating the use and effect of face-changing software. Different from a large number of free software that gives ordinary people "early adopters", the reporter found that there are many high-priced paid AI face-changing software on the Internet. What is the difference between these paid software and free software?
The reporter contacted a developer after searching for "AI face-changing software", and he provided the reporter with a demonstration video of using his software to realize face-changing. On the left side of the dual-window page is the original video before face-changing, and on the right side is the video after face-changing. To the naked eye, the mouth shape, expression and tiny movements of the "digital man" after face-changing are almost flawless.
△ The face changing effect of the amateur shown by the seller (S is the original video, D is after the replacement)
On its sales website, the software developer also showed how to stitch the eyes and mouths of two famous actresses together to generate a new "digital man" video.
△ Local facial features replacement displayed by the seller
This paid software offers different versions from basic (LV1) to super (LV4) to full set (LV5). For the primary package, 499 yuan provides software interface, video guidance, face changing model, etc. If 2888 yuan is spent, you can get a full set of (LV5) video face changing models.
△ There are many different levels of face-changing software products available on the network.
"You can change your face if you want."
AI big model can integrate multiple functions to create a "digital person"
Open the website, there is no text at the bottom showing that it has been filed. The seller is also very cautious, and only uses words to communicate throughout. He said that compared with the basic (LV1) to super (LV4) packages, the full (LV5) version has more iterations and stronger capabilities, which can also be understood as a more realistic face-changing effect. At the same time, it can not only realize video face-changing, but also support live face-changing.
The reporter further asked, can you change your face according to your own needs? Software developers said: "What kind of face you want to change can be trained with material."
△ Software developers are chatting with reporters.
A technician engaged in AI development said that this means that there may be more uncontrollable risks. "AI face-changing technology like deepfake is open source. Recently, the AI ? ? big model has become popular, and its algorithm has been updated. It is possible to integrate the functions of Wensheng map, Wensheng text, Wensheng audio, Wensheng video and face-changing. By combining these functions, a completely new’ digital person’ or’ AI person’ can be created, and the cost and difficulty of supervision are several orders of magnitude higher."

Expert: An Effective Supervision System for Labeling
Can clarify the fuzzy boundary brought by AI face change in advance.
Zhao Zhanling, a lawyer and IT legal expert of Beijing Jiawei Law Firm, said that from the perspective of post-strike, there are provisions on fraud in the criminal law; It is clear in the Civil Code that citizens have the right to portrait, name, reputation and other corresponding civil rights. In other words, if there is a related case of fraud by using someone else’s portrait, the criminals can be bound and sanctioned by law afterwards. However, with the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, we should also explore how to effectively prevent beforehand.
For example, in the Regulations on the Management of Deep Integration of Internet Information Services, it is required that if the deep integration service may lead to confusion or misidentification by the public, the deep integration service provider shall prominently mark the reasonable position and area of the generated or edited information content.
The Measures for the Administration of Generative Artificial Intelligence Services (Draft for Comment) requires that before using generative artificial intelligence products to provide services to the public, a safety assessment should be reported to the national network information department in accordance with relevant regulations; Respect the legitimate interests of others; Product providers should be responsible for the legality of pre-training data and optimizing the source of training data for generative artificial intelligence products.

Pan Helin, co-director of the Digital Economy and Financial Innovation Research Center of the International Joint Business School of Zhejiang University, believes that at present, if the requirements of the logo can be effectively implemented and an effective supervision system can be formed, the fuzzy boundary brought by the AI ? ? face change can be clarified in advance to a great extent.
Pan Helin: At present, the supervision system of AI face-changing logo has not yet been formed. It is necessary to identify the unlabeled content through technical means, and there must be specific punishment measures, standards and systems for unlabeled individuals or units.
Zhao Zhanling believes that in the long run, the supervision and punishment measures need to be "iterated" with the development of technology to form a three-dimensional and effective governance plan.
As a new national vehicle media, what kind of platform is the Central-Guangzhou Vehicle Networking? What is the main content? What is the replicable significance of cooperation with car companies? Dongfang Finance interviewed Liu Huajin, executive general manager of Yangguang Car Network. The following are some excerpts:
What kind of platform is the Central-Guangzhou Vehicle Networking?
The Central Broadcasting Network is a vehicle-mounted media platform. Firstly, the related background is introduced. In recent 10 years, the development of media has changed rapidly. Especially from the perspective of the Central Radio and Television General Station, the General Station is striving to build a world-class new mainstream media. At the same time, it requires us to transform into new media according to the strategy of "network linkage, network background first, and mobile priority", and also requires us to follow the "thought+technology+art" in content creation.
At present, the mainstream position can be said to have been completely transformed into the mobile internet, including the TV screen, mobile phone screen, computer screen and central control screen of the car, which we all know well, including the intelligent cockpit and intelligent cockpit. These screens should be said to be the mainstream communication position at present. As a national media and mainstream communication position, we should adapt to such trends and provide better media content services for the vast number of users.
The positioning of the Central-Guangzhou Vehicle Networking is the national vehicle-mounted new media, which mainly undertakes two functions: first, to ensure that the central voice can reach every car and ensure the smooth flow of the central voice; At the same time, it meets the growing demand of the majority of vehicle users for content and services.
Why do you want to listen to the content of the Central Broadcasting Car Network? What is the main content?
The first is the mission we have to undertake, that is, the transformation of broadcasting to mobile internet. With the change of technology, in the past, we may rely on TV channels to watch TV and frequency to listen to radio. Now relying on the mobile Internet platform, we can send more content with users. We have gathered 1900 live streams from national radio stations, provincial and municipal radio stations and above the county level through cloud listening.
The second is the content construction. We have obtained the copyright license of the content of the main station, and the copyright of audio is gathered in the cloud listening car platform of our Central Broadcasting Car Network. At present, there are 18 channels and more than 200 sub-categories, and the total duration of audio content has exceeded 4 million hours. In terms of audio content, broadcasting in the past may be a way of live broadcast. Now, whenever you want to listen to good content, you can request it at any time.
Third, in the past, radio provided the audience with the function of media service. For example, traffic radio can provide the audience with information on road conditions, and life radio can provide the audience with various information on catering and entertainment. Now we are also strengthening the construction of media service content, including loading the information of travel service into our vehicle space through the linkage of transportation departments.
Another one, we have also connected the information system of national emergency broadcasting to the cloud listening vehicle platform. When an emergency comes, we can push the emergency broadcast information to the vehicle users in time.
How long is the practical experience? What is the status quo? Did you achieve the envisaged goal?
The time when Yunting went online was in 2020, and it represented the revival of everything in 24 solar terms. From the user’s dimension, with its high-quality content and services, Yunting has a total user scale of over 260 million. As of November, 2023, the number of users of cloud listening vehicles exceeded 79 million, and the growth rate of industry scale was the first.
The second dimension is from daily life. At present, there are more than 2 million daily active people on the vehicle side, sharing two interesting data. The average listening time of each user is 56 minutes per day, which is basically consistent with the average commuting time in big cities. There are billions of people listening to radio stations through cloud listening every year, among which "Voice of China" listens more than 100 million times every year.
Therefore, whether in the past FM terminal or the mobile Internet terminal, you can feel the push and spread of audio content very well.
Why can it develop so rapidly in just a few years? Where is the core competitiveness?
From the background, as a new media enterprise under the Headquarters, we must build a new position.
The whole investment is quite huge. The reception desk is the largest content production media organization in China, and the aggregate production capacity of content is the support of resources.
At the same time, in the whole process of user construction, resources, policies, user needs, including the needs of car companies, have been well connected. Especially with car companies, at present, we have many ways to jointly operate users with car companies. Now the media and car companies have entered the user era together, and the media industry and the automobile industry are highly unified in the dimension of user service, from content to activities, and constantly enhance user stickiness.
What cooperation do you have with car companies? Does it have the significance of replication and promotion?
As far as broadcasting is concerned, the main communication position in the past was vehicle space. As a new platform for broadcasting transformation, we know more about vehicle enterprises and vehicle users, and can provide better services for users.
For example, there are co-branded radio stations, which can push different contents for different users, provide personalized services for different customer groups, and even organize motorists’ clubs to better combine the offline service ability and online connection ability for car companies to spread brand value and extend sales value.(Reprinted with deletion)
Chu Liyun, female, born in July 1966, enlisted in the army in July 1981, with a level 5 professional skill. She is currently the chief nurse and head nurse of the Third Division of the Cadre Ward of the 401st Hospital of the People’s Liberation Army, and is the mother of Comrade Zhang Xuejiao at Qingdao Frontier Inspection Station. Since graduating from the military academy in 1984, this comrade has been rooted in the clinical front line for 33 years, showing the value of life by caring for patients, improving the quality of work by continuous exploration and enterprising, interpreting angel’s love with scientific human management, and silently doing nursing work in ordinary posts to the extreme, practicing the Nightingale spirit with practical actions of respecting every patient and being kind to every life. Because of outstanding work achievements, He has been rated as "Top Ten Nurses", "Excellent Nurses", "Excellent Head Nurse" and "Excellent Communist party member" in the hospital for many times, and has been awarded many honorary medals such as "Advanced Woman" and "Ideal Shines in the Post" by the Navy North Sea Fleet. For three years in a row, it has been rated as "excellent service star" in Qingdao health system, "civilized worker" in Qingdao health system, "good nurse satisfied by the people" in Qingdao, the fourth "Li Guimei’s good nurse" nursing outstanding contribution award in Qingdao, and Qingdao "Adhere to the clinical good nurse for 30 years and the "most beautiful head nurse" in Qingdao; He was awarded the title of "Excellent Nurse" and "Excellent Nursing Worker" in the Ninth Branch of jinan military area command for many times, and won the third-class merit three times.
Filial piety to parents-in-law, caring for husband and teaching daughter are the "wife’s help" in the neighborhood.
Shortly after Chu Liyun got married, his father-in-law was diagnosed with advanced esophageal cancer, and he could not eat through his mouth, so he could only maintain his life by intravenous infusion. Because her family agreed to hide her illness from her father-in-law and refused to send her father-in-law to the hospital, Chu Liyun took the initiative to assume the responsibility of home care. No matter whether she worked at night shift in the unit or worked at night shift, no matter whether it was windy or snowy, she took a trip every day and rode her bike to and from more than 20 kilometers. More than half a year after her father-in-law died, she never stopped. When my father-in-law died, he left a last wish that "her lover must apply for graduate school." To this end, she has undertaken almost all the housework and tried her best to support her lover to concentrate on studying for master’s and doctoral students. In six years, she spent a lot of time together. While working, she took care of her ailing mother-in-law, while taking care of her daughter’s preschool education, and cultivated her daughter’s interests in dance, calligraphy and painting. Her paintings and calligraphy won the first and second prizes in the National Children’s Painting and Calligraphy Competition. After enlisting in the army, Zhang Xuejiao gave full play to his literary and artistic expertise, and directed more than 10 special cultural programs such as dance and allegro, which were performed in the cultural performances of provincial offices, corps and Qingdao Cooperation Zone successively, and won unanimous praise from officers and men.
Benevolence and kindness nursing are recognized as "service stars" by doctors and patients.
As the head nurse in the cadre ward above the military level, I can’t remember how many different roles she played — Granddaughter, daughter, sister, comrade-in-arms … … In 2015, a 97-year-old veteran cadre was unconscious due to a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. She took meticulous care of her like a baby. She lived in the department for several days and guarded her bed. After the veteran cadre woke up, she heard about this and pointed to her wife. Emotionally said: "This is our own daughter!" . When she was discharged from the hospital, she was specially presented with a banner, which read "To Head Nurse Chu Liyun: She is extremely enthusiastic about her comrades and is active and responsible for her work". In addition, she insisted on visiting newly admitted patients within 12 hours, patrolling the ward at least twice a day on weekdays and at least once a day on holidays, keeping abreast of patients’ needs and doing her best to solve problems for patients; She insisted on taking the initiative to leave her mobile phone number for every hospitalized patient, and turned it on 24 hours a day, so as to be responsive, answer questions and be on call.
In 2002, as one of the first nurses sent abroad to study in the hospital, she went to Japan to study clinical nursing and nursing education. After returning home, she eagerly updated her knowledge, assiduously studied related rehabilitation skills, and applied the early rehabilitation concept of cerebrovascular disease to clinical work, which was highly recognized by her peers. In 2006, she was selected by the hospital and sent to the special training center of Run Run Run Shaw Hospital affiliated to Zhejiang University for venous catheterization technology. After strict examination, she successfully obtained PICC technical qualification certification, and now she has successfully placed catheters for more than 1,000 patients, improving the level of venous treatment in the hospital. A patient from Taiwan Province was in hemorrhagic shock due to sudden upper gastrointestinal bleeding, and her blood pressure could not be measured. She quickly and skillfully performed central venous catheterization for him through femoral vein, established a safe venous passage, and transfused 3000ML for 2 hours, saving the patient’s life. A patient with esophageal cancer survived for nine months after PICC intubation, and his family regarded PICC intubation as a life channel. The diligent pursuit of her career has yielded fruitful results. She once participated in the "First Naval Nursing Technology Competition" on behalf of the hospital and won many awards such as individual event, pentathlon and group. Also won the first prize in Qingdao vein indwelling needle competition. In addition, she has served as the coach and evaluation of nursing technology competitions organized by hospitals, logistics department of Qingdao base, Qingdao base, North Sea Fleet Air Force, North Sea Fleet and Qingdao for many times, and trained many nursing technical backbones for grass-roots health units of the army.He has published 20 professional papers and 5 monographs by the first author, and successively won one third prize for military medical achievements, four third prizes for military scientific and technological progress, one second prize for Qingdao scientific and technological progress, one third prize for Shandong scientific and technological progress, two national utility model patents and one national invention patent.
Chu Liyun’s selfless, selfless and conscientious professionalism has brought her a personal influence. Zhang Xuejiao worked hard in her post and worked hard for many years. In 2015, she was commended as an "advanced individual in law enforcement" by the Border Defense Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security.
Perseverance, courage and responsibility are the "loving elder sister" respected by officers and men.
During his 36-year military career, Chu Liyun has participated in military medical support tasks many times. In December 2015, she was nearly 50 years old. With the strong support of her family, she actively requested to participate in the 22nd escort mission of the Navy and served as the party branch secretary of the medical team. During the seven-month mission, he not only withstood the severe physical and mental tests of various complex sea conditions, but also took the lead, actively participated in various exercises, and always served every officer and soldier patiently and meticulously with full work enthusiasm. Take the initiative, carry out health knowledge teaching, and organize self-help and mutual rescue training and competitions for officers and men in war injuries. Actively participate in the rescue and care of the fishermen of the "Zhangyuan" in the Gulf of Aden. In every medical emergency, she always takes the lead and rushes to the front, showing the good image of female soldiers in China. Many media, such as People’s Navy Daily and Zhongxin. com, have given special reports, and the escorted officers and men are affectionately known as "loving big sisters". Mother and daughter always encourage each other tacitly, whether they are concerned about their daughters during the voyage across the equator or worried about their mothers in the Gulf of Aden mission area. They are both close friends and like-minded comrades-in-arms. Zhang Xuejiao proudly said: "Mom is escorted by one person, and our whole family is glorious. My mother has set a good example for me as a revolutionary soldier, and I will work harder like my mother. " Engaged in information legal work, often have to work overtime,Sometimes she works continuously until late at night. Zhang Xuejiao never complains that she is tired and full of energy.
Enthusiastic public welfare and selfless dedication are the "most beautiful head nurses" praised by the masses.
Years of work practice have made Chu Liyun feel that as a head nurse, it is far from enough to rely on one’s love, patience and compassion. Only by bringing out an excellent nursing team, cultivating a group of excellent nursing talents and creating a series of advanced nursing cultures with a responsible attitude, scientific management and innovative spirit can we be truly responsible for the nursing cause. And she is willing to devote her life to this great and beloved cause. The nursing group led by her has been rated as "advanced clinical teaching department", "excellent training department" and "advanced nursing unit" for many times. "Standardized nursing unit with high quality service", the "excellent nursing unit" of the ninth branch of the Joint Logistics Department, was jointly commended by the Ministry of Health of the People’s Liberation Army General Logistics Department and the Ministry of Health in 2010 as "demonstration ward with high quality nursing service". In 2014, it was named "Top Ten Outstanding Nursing Teams" in Qingdao. The "Rose in the Army" initiated by her — The Nightingale Nursing Volunteer Service Team of 401 Hospital often uses holidays to go deep into street communities to carry out free clinic activities for the people, carry out health education and rehabilitation guidance, and is welcomed by the masses. She has lived for decades,Leading nurses to regularly and voluntarily replace catheters, fistulas, nasal feeding tubes, PICC catheter maintenance, skin and wound care for patients with mobility difficulties after discharge. Many patients said in thank-you letters: "The head nurse thought of the front of the patient and did it in the patient’s heart!" Other patients’ families embroidered "meticulous care and consideration" on the banner. She also often uses her rest time to go to nursing homes for nursing business guidance, persistent dedication, and convey the warmth of angels with true love. In May this year, Comrade Chu Liyun won the title of "the most beautiful head nurse" in the activity of "Looking for the most beautiful head nurse" carried out by Qingdao News Network.

Takeaway riders’ war escalated: riders laugh and users worry, when will the price war stop?
With the development of science and technology, internet giants have set foot in the take-away industry, and the war of take-away riders has escalated. In this highly competitive market, riders laugh, but users are worried. When will the price war stop? This paper will analyze the current competitive situation of the take-away market from a professional perspective and put forward some possible solutions.
First of all, we need to know the advantages of Internet giants such as JD.COM and Meituan in policy, technology and capital, as well as the protection of the rights and interests of take-away riders. In terms of policies, major platforms have introduced policies such as paying five insurances and one gold for riders and canceling the overtime penalty for delivery, aiming at improving the welfare of riders and protecting their rights and interests. In terms of technology, major platforms improve distribution efficiency and reduce costs through artificial intelligence, big data and other technical means. In terms of funds, the major platforms have strong financial strength and can invest more resources to increase market share.
However, the competition in the take-away market is fierce, and the price war has become an important means for major platforms to compete for market share. The price war caused the take-away platform to reduce the profit margin in order to reduce the cost, and then passed the cost on to the settled merchants and users. In order to attract more orders, merchants reduce prices, which leads to further compression of profit margins. At the same time, users have to accept higher prices in order to get more coupons. This vicious circle not only harms the interests of merchants and users, but also brings greater work pressure and safety risks to takeaway riders.
In order to solve this problem, we need to put forward some possible solutions from multiple angles. First of all, the government should strengthen supervision, standardize market competition behavior, and prevent vicious competition from causing market chaos. Secondly, the take-away platform should strengthen its own management, improve distribution efficiency, and reduce the work pressure and safety risks of riders. In addition, the take-away platform can also increase revenue sources and profit margins by increasing delivery rates and introducing third-party payment. Finally, the take-away platform can introduce some preferential policies to attract merchants to settle in and improve their profit margins.
For users, they should look at the competitive situation in the take-away market more rationally, and don’t blindly pursue low prices and ignore quality and service. At the same time, they should also pay attention to their own health and safety issues and choose businesses with high credibility and good service for consumption. For riders, they should strengthen their awareness of self-protection, improve their safety awareness, obey traffic rules and ensure their own safety. In addition, they can improve their welfare and career development prospects by joining trade unions and improving their skills.
To sum up, the take-away market is fiercely competitive, and the price war has become an important means for major platforms to compete for market share. In this highly competitive market, we need to put forward some possible solutions from multiple angles. Measures such as strengthening supervision by the government, strengthening self-management of take-away platforms and introducing preferential policies to attract merchants to settle in will help solve the current predicament of the take-away market. At the same time, users and riders should also strengthen their awareness of self-protection and jointly safeguard market order and consumer rights. Only in this way can we realize the sustainable development of the take-away market.
