　　Since the first meeting of the Spring Festival this year, Lianyungang has placed the high-quality development of county economy at the core of the overall development. The executive meeting of the municipal government held recently also pointed out that the county economy is an important foundation for regional development and plays a key, leading and decisive role in promoting high-quality development. It is necessary to compact the responsibilities of all parties, continue to increase the attraction of projects, steadily promote urban and rural overall planning, go all out to promote the total economic growth of counties, improve quality and enhance competitiveness, and help the city realize the "first come, first served" in the new era. All counties in Lianyungang City deeply understand the strategic considerations of the municipal party committee and municipal government, pay close attention to the key points, strive to overcome the impact of the epidemic, and quickly launch online "cloud meetings", centralized contract signing, industrial investment conferences and other activities to inject vitality into county economic development.

　　After the "First Meeting of the Spring Festival", guannan county innovated the mode of attracting investment, and adopted the cloud investment mode without meeting, changing the previous "face-to-face signing" into "screen-to-screen signing", and immediately held the "cloud meeting" and centralized signing activities for the key investment projects of the Spring Festival in 2022, and signed 25 projects on the spot with a total planned investment of 10.8 billion yuan, with industrial projects accounting for more than 90%. There are not only traditional industries such as food processing, textiles and clothing, hardware tools, sheet furniture, precision machinery, but also emerging industries such as new materials and electronic information. Most of the investors are from the Yangtze River Delta region, as well as merchants from Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and some peripheral regions and local entrepreneurs have increased their capital and shares and expanded their production capacity. With the signing of these projects, it will further set off a new upsurge of grasping projects and promoting development, and inject more powerful impetus into the county economic development of our city.

　　Wang Yuan, general manager of Jiangsu Xinruijun Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd.: The return of some personnel from the Yangtze River Delta in recent years has brought me a lot of confidence. In terms of policy support, the government is optimizing services and some support for some major projects, which has attracted me deeply. Therefore, I have come back to my hometown through some reserves and some studies in recent years to make such project investments.

　　Wu Hongbo, Secretary of the Party Group of guannan county Administrative Examination and Approval Bureau: As the first stop of investment promotion projects, the administrative examination and approval bureau will comprehensively deepen the mechanism of "whole process, no closing time, tolerance for defects and good bad reviews", do a good job in tracking the contracted projects and efficiently examining and approving enterprise-related matters, promote the rapid approval, landing and start of investment promotion projects, and make due contributions to the comprehensive revitalization and development of Guannan.

　　If you plant a plane tree, you will get a phoenix. Ganyu District has highlighted the driving force of reform and innovation, and quickly convened the plenary session of the Industrial Investment Conference and the Conference on Optimizing the Business Environment to enhance the level of investment attraction and corporate services. In specific work, we will continuously improve the standardization level of government services, and achieve 100% of six indicators, namely, we must make progress, we can do it online, and we don’t meet each other. Gather strength to tackle the "one thing" in the examination and approval of engineering construction projects, explore the implementation of "no meeting" remote reconnaissance, and expand more fields of "one thing arranged, departments jointly run". Relying on the "green channel" for the examination and approval of engineering construction projects, we will set up a project pre-trial service specialist, implement the full-chain agency service model for major projects, and do special things in advance to help the projects land early and get early results. Deeply cultivate the "first window", further reduce the time limit for examination and approval, increase the completion rate of enterprises within 0.5 days of start-up to over 98%, and promote more matters "online, nearby, ‘ Code ’ Go to the office. "　

　　He Hui, Director of the Administrative Examination and Approval Bureau of Ganyu District: We will take this meeting as a new starting point, make concerted efforts to deepen the reform, speed up the administrative examination and approval, improve the quality of government services, play a good "first move" and play a good "active battle" to promote Ganyu’s government services to rank among the top 20 in the province, and make due contributions to accelerating the "late arrival" in the new era.

On May 26th, the share price of Netease Cloud Music ushered in a wave of surge, which once reached HK$ 92.55, up over 57%. In the end, Cloud Music closed at HK$ 81.1, an increase of 38.16%, which was the highest increase in one day since Netease Cloud Music went public in Hong Kong.

The sudden surge is related to the sudden handshake between Netease and Tencent, which have been "entangled" for many years.

After years of entanglement, make peace?

As early as 2014-2015, Tencent Music, with its deep pockets, pocketed many copyrights such as YG Entertainment, Jewel, Huayi, Emperor, Lehua and Huayan International, and even its own "brother" WeChat banned similar online music products such as Netease Cloud Music, Xiami Music and Everyday Music, and the copyright dispute officially started.

In this incident, Netease also issued a message called "Goodbye, Friends Circle; Chang Bo of Hello, Good Music insinuates that Tencent has no open Internet spirit.

In 2018, under the impetus of the National Copyright Administration, Tencent Music and Netease Cloud Music exchanged copyrights. Since then, although the struggle between the two families is not as fierce as before, there are still many confrontations in the open and in the dark.

In July 2021, the State Administration of Market Supervision ordered Tencent Music to terminate the exclusive copyright agreement. Netease Cloud subsequently issued a notice saying that it firmly supported the punishment decision of the State Administration of Markets.

Since Netease Cloud first posted a blog in February 2021 accusing Cool Dog Music of plagiarism, in April this year, Netease Cloud again issued a statement announcing the prosecution of Tencent Music Entertainment Group (including QQ music, cool music, cool dog music, national K songs and other products) for copyright infringement through illegal broadcasting and unauthorized songs, batch impersonation, product innovation by copying, evasion and even confrontation with supervision, which constitutes unfair competition.

Subsequently, Chen Mo, the head of brand public relations of Tencent Music Entertainment Group, responded in a circle of friends, saying, "Ignoring the facts to touch porcelain will not help the development of the music industry, and it will not join the ranks of quarrelling. Relevant evidence has already been preserved, and the lawsuits initiated have already been initiated one after another."

At the same time, the black history that Netease Cloud Music illegally packaged and sold Jay Chou Quanqu Library was also dug up by the people who ate melons.

Just as the public was still immersed in the copyright dispute between Netease and Tencent, the two companies suddenly sent a message to "confess" each other.

On May 25th, Netease Cloud Music officially announced that WeChat status can support one-click sharing of Netease Cloud Music. WeChat official account, its official WeChat, also published an article entitled "Thank you for your status on WeChat", which introduced in detail all the steps to share the songs in Netease Cloud Music to "WeChat status".

At the same time, WeChat’s official account "WeChat School" also responded with "@ Netease Cloud Music Thank You for Your Song".

Or related to the new function of WeChat status, Netease Cloud Music increased by 38.16% on May 26th. As of the close of June 1, Netease Cloud Music reported 86.65 Hong Kong dollars/share, with an increase of over 50% in five trading days.

One second, it was full of gunpowder, and the next second, it was quiet. Perhaps it is the old saying, "There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests".

Stock competition continues, user growth touches the ceiling.

With the advent of the post-copyright era, the online music market has entered the stage of stock competition and is facing the loss of users.

According to Analysys Qian Fan’s "Annual Comprehensive Analysis of Online Music Market in China in 2022" report, in January 2022, all mobile music users spent 21 minutes per day, down 21% year-on-year; All mobile music users started 4.2 times per day, down 21% year-on-year.

Netease Cloud Music, which once suffered from "the pain of copyright", has also begun to accelerate copyright cooperation, and has successively added copyright parties such as Modern Sky, Emperor Entertainment and Lehua Entertainment. However, this also brings a lot of cost pressure to the company.

From 2018 to 2021, the service cost of Netease cloud music content was 1.971 billion yuan, 2.853 billion yuan, 4.787 billion yuan and 6 billion yuan respectively. Among them, this cost has exceeded the total revenue of each period from 2018 to 2019, and reached 97.79% of the total revenue in 2020.

"Promoting the incubation of independent musicians and the development of self-made music" is one of the strategies that Netease Cloud Music has adhered to for many years.

Behind a number of support programs for independent musicians, we can see the thinking of Netease Cloud Music. Through the vigorous development of the original music ecology, we can get rid of the shackles of copyright, which is also Netease Cloud Music’s efforts to reduce costs.

However, originality is not obvious for Netease Cloud Music to quickly seize market share.

Netease Cloud Music Prospectus revealed that according to the revenue in 2020, Tencent Music accounted for 72.8% of the market share, and Netease Cloud only accounted for 20.5%. In 2020, Tencent’s music revenue has reached 29.15 billion yuan, while Netease’s vowel music revenue scale is 4.9 billion yuan.

In addition, Netease Cloud Music has been at a loss for nearly four years. From 2018 to 2021, Netease Cloud Music lost 1.72 billion yuan, 1.64 billion yuan, 1.52 billion yuan and 2.056 billion yuan respectively.

According to the latest first-quarter financial report, Netease Cloud Music’s loss has narrowed, with an adjusted net loss of 152 million yuan, which is 46.6% narrower than that in 2021.

Although the net loss has narrowed, Netease Cloud Music’s monthly revenue per paid user (ARPPU) is decreasing. Among them, the social entertainment service ARPPU, the core business of Netease Cloud, dropped from 553.3 yuan in the first quarter of 2021 to 329.8 yuan in the first quarter of 2022, while the online music service ARPPU dropped from 7.1 yuan to 6.4 yuan.

In addition, the monthly activity of Netease Cloud Music has also decreased. The monthly active users of online music service decreased from 183.1 million in the first quarter of 2021 to 181.7 million in the first quarter of 2022.

Image source: Netease Cloud Music Quarterly Report

The lack of user growth and the decline of payment ability have become a common problem faced by the online music industry.

For example, Tencent Music, although the monthly user scale far exceeds Netease Cloud Music, has also experienced a year-on-year decline for eight consecutive quarters, which means that the growth of Tencent Music is gradually slowing down. In the first quarter of 2022, the number of monthly users of Tencent Music’s online music service decreased by 1.8% year-on-year to 604 million.

At the same time, the ARPPU of Tencent Music’s online music has also declined for five consecutive quarters. In the first quarter of 2022, the online music ARPPU of Tencent Music was 8.3 yuan/month, down 10.8% compared with the same period of last year.

Old players meet new Meng

Today’s online music market may usher in a new pattern.

This change is mainly reflected in the shift of the balance center of gravity between the major platforms for "copyright, users and musicians". That is to say, in addition to competition with each other, online music platforms have different weights for copyright, users and musicians.

Today’s online music platform is either merged like "QQ Music+Cool Dog Music+Cool Me Music" or exited like Xiami Music. But on the whole, the platform that survives today is larger, the competition is more concentrated than before, and it also faces the pressure of new players with strong backgrounds.

Different from the old players such as Netease Cloud Music and Tencent Music, new players such as Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker rely on their huge platform traffic to enter the market.

With the continuous popularity of "Tik Tok Hot Songs" and "Aauto Quicker Divine Comedy", the short video platform has more and more mastered the right to speak the current "hot songs", and the musical ambitions of Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker are far more than that.

Taking ByteDance as an example, following the launch of the first music APP "Soda Music" in 2021, an APP named "Sponge Band" was recently launched. According to the official introduction, this product will better serve "soda music" and users who need music editing in Tik Tok.

But the most direct impact is that many music copyright companies now take short video platforms such as Tik Tok as the first choice for the promotion of new songs, which is nothing more than another big crisis for old players.

From this point of view, with players such as short video platforms and live broadcast platforms entering the music track, it is more wise for Tencent Music and Netease Cloud Music to join hands to resist foreign enemies than to continue to hurt each other.

For Netease Cloud itself, with the help of WeChat status and circle of friends, reaching more users and playing a role of drainage and promotion, why not? Shake hands and make peace is also a way to survive.

　　First, efforts should be made to solve problems and help enterprises to resume work and production.In view of the difficulties existing in the industrial chain, supply chain, capital chain and logistics chain of enterprises during the epidemic prevention and control period, including the difficulties in returning employees to their posts, we issued "Ten Articles of Support for Resuming Work and Production", and together with the Development and Reform Commission and other six departments, we issued "Guiding Opinions on Strengthening Support for Individual Industrial and Commercial Households in Response to the Impact of the Epidemic", with the aim of reducing costs and reducing burdens, helping individual industrial and commercial households to cope with the impact of the epidemic, supporting flexible employment through multiple channels, solving the problem of individual industrial and commercial households resuming business, and creating new opportunities.

　　The second is to focus on supervision and law enforcement and maintain a fair and orderly market order.During the epidemic period, some lawless elements bid up the prices of masks, meltblown fabrics and forehead guns, making "national hardship" and "black-hearted money". Together with the public security organs, we severely cracked down, exposed typical cases, and published 10 batches of typical cases, which formed a powerful shock. At the same time, strengthen the food safety supervision of "rice bags" and "vegetable baskets", promptly investigate potential risks, strictly investigate the behavior of making and selling fake goods and arbitrarily raising prices, maintain market order, and create a safe and secure consumption environment.

　　The third is to deepen reform and continuously optimize the business environment.Promote decentralization, facilitate market access, simplify product approval, and shorten the start-up time of enterprises; Innovate the way of supervision, realize "smart management" among "strict management" and improve the efficiency of supervision; Promote "internet plus" supervision and provide convenience for market players. Through the comprehensive policy of "releasing, managing and serving", the vitality and social creativity of market players have been greatly stimulated.

　　The fourth is to optimize services and give full play to the role of market mechanisms.In order to ensure the market supply and price stability of epidemic prevention materials and people’s livelihood commodities, promote the resumption of work and production, and enhance the confidence in fighting the epidemic, the General Administration of Market Supervision launched the "three guarantees" action of "ensuring prices, quality and supply" on January 29, and through the commitment of the government and enterprises, the joint efforts of market participants to overcome the difficulties and ensure supply and stable prices have been positively responded by the majority of enterprises. Over the past 50 days, more than 15,000 enterprises have participated in the "Three Guarantees" campaign, involving many chain-operated enterprises, with more than 300,000 stores. They publicly promised to guarantee prices, quality and supply. Among them, there are both Fortune 500 enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households, covering production and processing, logistics and transportation, shopping malls and supermarkets, catering enterprises, e-commerce platforms, as well as familiar express delivery and other formats, which basically cover the entire supply chain. These large, medium and small enterprises on the platform break through the "blocking points" in the industrial chain and supply chain, connect "breakpoints", and work together to resume production. The "three guarantees" action has stabilized enterprises, stabilized jobs and stabilized employment while ensuring stable supply and prices and meeting the needs of people’s lives.

　　In the next step, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, the market supervision department will give full play to its functions, stick to the position of market supervision, serve the overall situation of epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, and make due contributions to achieving this year’s economic and social development goals and building a well-off society in an all-round way.

　　Beijing, August 15th (Reporter Li Jinlei) The RMB is becoming more and more international!

　　The fifth largest international payment currency, the fifth largest international reserve currency, the third largest trade financing currency and the eighth largest foreign exchange transaction currency … … This is the RMB!

　　From WeChat official account, the central bank.

　　The fifth largest international payment currency

　　On August 14th, the central bank released the Report on RMB Internationalization in 2020, and RMB internationalization reached a new level in 2019. According to the latest statistics, RMB ranks fifth among the major international payment currencies, with a market share of 1.76%.

　　According to the report, the cross-border use of RMB increased rapidly against the trend in 2019. The total amount of cross-border payment and receipt of RMB by banks on behalf of customers in the whole year was 19.67 trillion yuan, up 24.1% year-on-year. On the basis of the rapid growth in 2018, the amount of payment and receipt continued to maintain rapid growth, reaching a record high.

　　The fifth largest international reserve currency

　　According to the official currency composition (COFER) data of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), by the end of the fourth quarter of 2019, the scale of RMB reserves reached US$ 217.67 billion, accounting for 1.95% of the total foreign exchange reserves in the indicated currencies, ranking fifth, surpassing Canadian dollars by 1.88%, which is the highest level since the IMF began to publish RMB reserve assets in 2016.

　　According to incomplete statistics, at present, more than 70 central banks or monetary authorities around the world have included RMB in foreign exchange reserves.

　　The third largest trade financing currency

　　The attraction of RMB as an international financing currency is gradually emerging.

　　According to the report, the survey shows that about 82% of the overseas industrial and commercial enterprises surveyed said that when the liquidity of international currencies such as the US dollar and the euro is relatively tight, they will consider using RMB as the financing currency, which has reached a new high since 2016. 75% of the overseas industrial and commercial enterprises interviewed are willing to consider using RMB as the trade financing currency in their economic and trade exchanges with China.

　　The eighth largest foreign exchange trading currency

　　In 2019, global RMB foreign exchange transactions increased steadily. According to the latest data released by BIS in April 2019 (once every three years), RMB ranks eighth among the most active currencies in the world, and ranks first among the currencies of emerging market countries.

　　RMB assets are becoming more and more popular.

　　According to the report, by the end of 2019, the amount of domestic financial assets such as RMB stocks, bonds, loans and deposits held by overseas entities totaled 6.41 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 30.3%. Among them, the stock market value is 2.1 trillion yuan, the bond custody balance is 2.26 trillion yuan, the deposit balance is 1.21 trillion yuan (including interbank current account deposits), and the loan balance is 833.2 billion yuan.

　　Stocks and bonds in domestic financial markets have become the main varieties for overseas entities to allocate RMB assets. By the end of 2019, the scale of domestic RMB stocks and bonds held by overseas entities increased by 48.6% year-on-year, of which the amount of bond custody accounted for 2.3% of the total bond custody in the inter-bank bond market, and the market value of stocks held accounted for 3.6% of the total market value of A shares. In 2019, stocks accounted for 66.6% of the domestic RMB assets newly added by overseas entities.

　　In other words, more and more foreign investors are looking for gold in China’s capital market. In 2019, the cross-border receipts and payments of securities investment in RMB totaled 9.51 trillion yuan, up 49.1% year-on-year, with a net inflow of 621.9 billion yuan.

　　More foreign trade enterprises use RMB for cross-border payment and receipt.

　　According to the questionnaire of the People’s Bank of China on foreign trade enterprises, since 2019, foreign trade enterprises have been highly motivated to participate in cross-border RMB business. As of the fourth quarter of 2019, 84.6% of enterprises chose RMB as the main currency for cross-border settlement.

　　Judging from the driving factors for enterprises to choose cross-border RMB settlement, since 2019, due to the influence of external factors such as Sino-US trade friction, RMB exchange rate fluctuations have increased. Many enterprises choose cross-border RMB business as a means to avoid exchange rate risks, accounting for 64.7%. In addition, simple settlement process, reducing settlement cost and facilitating financial accounting and fund management are also the main reasons why enterprises choose to carry out cross-border RMB business, accounting for 43.2%, 36.8% and 32% respectively.

　　The RMB cross-border payment system (CIPS) has become the main channel for RMB cross-border settlement. In 2019, the CIPS system handled 1.884 million cross-border RMB businesses, amounting to 33.9 trillion yuan, up 31% and 28% respectively. It handled 7,537 transactions daily, with an amount of 135.7 billion yuan.

　　Iron ore transactions are settled in RMB.

　　In recent years, China has been the largest importer and consumer of iron ore trade in the world. The import and consumption of iron ore are at the global level of 70% and 50% respectively, but it has been relatively passive in pricing.

　　Nowadays, domestic iron and steel enterprises have made continuous progress in using RMB to settle iron ore imports. In early May 2020, baoshan iron & steel, a subsidiary of China Baowu Group, and Rio Tinto completed the first cross-border RMB settlement with blockchain technology. This is another new development after baoshan iron & steel completed the first RMB cross-border settlement with Brazil’s Vale and Australia’s BHP Billiton in January and April this year respectively.

　　So far, China Baowu and the world’s three major iron ore suppliers have achieved RMB cross-border settlement, totaling more than 500 million yuan.

　　The RMB exchange rate remained basically stable.

　　At the beginning of August 2019, due to the further escalation of trade friction, the RMB exchange rate was "broken by 7" driven by market forces, but the exchange rate expectation remained stable on the whole. Since then, due to the changes in the international economic and financial situation and the trade friction situation, the RMB exchange rate has broken by 7 for many times.

　　The report pointed out that in general, cross-border capital flows and foreign exchange supply and demand were basically balanced in 2019, exchange rate expectations were generally stable, and the RMB exchange rate remained basically stable at a reasonable and balanced level.

　　Overall, in 2019, the domestic RMB exchange rate fluctuated in both directions, and its flexibility was significantly enhanced. The RMB has risen and fallen against the US dollar and other major currencies in the world. The central parity of RMB against the US dollar, Japanese yen and British pound has depreciated by 1.62%, 3.43% and 5.18% respectively compared with the end of 2018, and the central parity of RMB against the euro has appreciated by 0.41% compared with the end of 2018.

　　Raise the level of free use of RMB

　　According to the report, RMB internationalization is a natural process driven by the market. In recent years, the cross-border use of RMB has maintained rapid growth, especially since the COVID-19 epidemic hit global trade, finance and economy this year, the cross-border use of RMB has remained resilient and showed growth.

　　The Bank of China said that in the future, it will continue to serve the real economy, adhere to the principle of marketization, and steadily promote the internationalization of RMB.

　　First, adhere to market-driven. Explore and promote a higher level of trade and investment facilitation, constantly remove obstacles restricting the use of RMB at home and abroad, and create a level playing field for RMB and other major convertible currencies. Second, continue to promote the opening of domestic financial markets and the interconnection of infrastructure. Further facilitate foreign investors to use RMB to invest in domestic bonds and stocks. The third is to guide the healthy development of the offshore RMB market. Improve the freely usable level of RMB and promote the benign interaction and deep integration between offshore and onshore markets. The fourth is to improve macro-prudential management. Strengthen the monitoring, analysis and early warning of cross-border capital flows, make countercyclical adjustments, and guard against the risks of cross-border capital flows. (End)

　　In the next few days, the cold wave will gradually move south, from west to east and from north to south, gradually affecting most parts of China.

　　△ On November 4th, the impact of the cold wave has been highlighted, with cooling in Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia.

　　With the penetration of cold air, the temperature in most parts of the north to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River will hit a new low after autumn, and the situation of abnormally high temperature in the previous period will also change, and the temperature in eastern Inner Mongolia and northeast China will be reversed from significantly high to low.

　　△ National temperature anomaly in the past ten days VS temperature anomaly in the next ten days. From warm to cold.

　　On the evening of the 4 th,The Central Meteorological Observatory issued four early warnings of cold wave, blizzard, strong wind and strong convection.!

　　It is estimated that from 20: 00 on the 4th to 20: 00 on the 7th, the temperature will drop by 6 ~ 10℃ in the central and eastern parts of northwest China,The temperature in central and eastern Inner Mongolia, south-central Northeast China, central and eastern Jianghuai and other places will drop by 12 ~ 14℃, and the local temperature drop in southwestern Jilin, northwestern Liaoning and southeastern Inner Mongolia will reach more than 16℃.; The lowest temperature appeared on the morning of the 7th, and the lowest temperature 0℃ line will be located in northern Hebei, southern Beijing, southwestern Shanxi, Guanzhong Plain in Shaanxi and southeastern Gansu, and the lowest temperature in most areas along the Yangtze River will drop to about 10℃. There are 4 ~ 6 northerly winds in the north of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and the gusts are 7 ~ 9, and the local level can reach 10.

　　The temperature drop is most severe in Northeast China, especially in Jilin, where the drop is generally above 16℃. The highest temperature in Changchun will be 11℃ tomorrow, and it will drop to -5℃ on the 7th, with a cumulative drop of 16℃.

　　The cooling in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River is also very intense. The highest temperature in Shanghai, Hangzhou and other cities is still around 30℃ on the 4th and 5th. In particular, the highest temperature in Hangzhou will reach 31℃ tomorrow, but it will drop to 19℃ on the 6th, and seasonal and cliff-like cooling will be staged.

　　Moreover, this cold wave is still an effort. Although it is a "spent force" to go to Guangdong, it will still cool down Guangdong and send some coolness ~

　　In addition to strong winds and cooling, the cold wave will also bring a wide range of rain and snow weather to China. It is estimated that from 20: 00 on the 4 th to 20: 00 on the 6 th,There have been heavy snowstorms from west to east in the central and eastern Inner Mongolia, the central and western parts of Northeast China and the north, and there have been heavy snowstorms in some areas and local heavy snowstorms.(30 ~ 34 mm), the new snow depth is 10 ~ 20 cm, and the local area can reach more than 25 cm. The main snowfall period is from the night of the 5th to the 6th.

　　The precipitation in the east and northeast of Inner Mongolia lasts for a long time, and the accumulated precipitation is large, and the precipitation phase is complex. In the early stage, the temperature is high before the rain snows, and the snow will turn from tomorrow night to the day after tomorrow, accompanied by strong winds, and there will be snowstorms in some areas, which is extremely extreme.

　　Why is the snowfall in Northeast China so strong this time? Zhang Juan, a meteorologist of China Weather Network, said that there was a cold vortex at high altitude and the ground cooperated with cyclones, which made the water vapor in the Yellow Sea and the Sea of Japan rise strongly after being involved. The snowfall intensity was rare in early November.

　　Remember the rain and snow process in early November 2021? The daily precipitation of 151 national stations in Northeast China, Inner Mongolia, North China and Huanghuai broke the historical extreme in November. The phase transition of rain and snow in Northeast China is complex, and freezing rain occurs. The snow depth in Inner Mongolia, Jilin and Liaoning is more than 40 cm.

　　Although the scope of rain and snow in Northeast China is not as wide as that in 2021, there will still be rain and snow conversion, and the snow potential is relatively strong.

　　In addition, the Central Meteorological Observatory issued a strong convective warning on the evening of the 4th. It is estimated that from 20: 00 on the 4 th to 20: 00 on the 5 th, there will be 8-10 thunderstorms or hail weather in parts of southern Anhui, south-central Hunan, north-central Jiangxi, southern Guizhou and northwestern Guangxi; There will be short-term heavy precipitation in parts of central and southern Anhui, eastern Hubei, most of Hunan, central and northern Jiangxi, southeastern Chongqing, eastern and southern Guizhou, northwestern Guangxi, southwestern Guangdong, Hainan Island and other places, with a maximum hourly rainfall of 20-30 mm and a local area of more than 50 mm.

　　The heavy snowfall in Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning, coupled with the superposition effect of previous snowfall, has a medium and high risk of snowstorm and low-temperature rain, snow and freezing disasters. Relevant departments and the public should pay attention to the traffic congestion or accidents that may be caused by snow and ice on road sections, and agriculture and animal husbandry should pay attention to the possible adverse effects of heavy snowfall; Strong convection and strong cooling in the south are coming, and the public should also pay attention to prevention.
