Bolstered by sustained policy support for trade-in programs, China's consumption is likely to continue its robust growth momentum in the second half of the year, better underpinning the country's stable economic growth amid mounting external uncertainties, analysts said.分析人士表示，在对以旧换新项目的持续政策支持的推动下，中国的消费可能会在今年下半年继续保持强劲的增长势头，在外部不确定性日益增加的情况下更好地支撑该国的稳定经济增长。China still has ample fiscal headroom to reinforce its trade-in initiative later this year should consumer demand exhaust its initial 300 billion yuan ($42 billion) allocation, they said, emphasizing that similar policy incentives could be extended to the service sector to foster more sustainable consumption growth.他们表示，如果消费者需求耗尽其最初的3000亿元人民币（420亿美元）的拨款，中国仍有充足的财政空间来加强其以旧换新计划，并强调类似的政策激励措施可以扩展到服务业，以促进更可持续的消费增长。On Tuesday, the Ministry of Finance announced the issuance of 11 ultra-long-term treasury bonds in the third quarter, with four of them seeing their timelines accelerated compared with the previous plan released in April. This will help maintain a continuous flow of funding to support policies meant to boost consumption, analysts said.周二，财政部宣布在第三季度发行11只超长期国债，其中4只的发行时间比4月份发布的计划提前。分析人士表示，这将有助于保持持续的资金流动，以支持旨在促进消费的政策。According to the National Development and Reform Commission, China's top economic regulator, the third group of fiscal funding through ultra-long-term treasury bonds for the consumer goods trade-in program is scheduled to be allocated in July.周二，财政部宣布在第三季度发行11只超长期国债，其中4只的发行时间比4月份发布的计划提前。分析人士表示，这将有助于保持持续的资金流动，以支持旨在促进消费的政策。The central government has earmarked 300 billion yuan in ultra-long-term treasury bonds to support the trade-in program for the whole year. The first two groups of fiscal funding, totaling 162 billion yuan, were allocated in January and April.中央政府已指定3000亿元人民币的超长期国债，以支持全年的置换计划。前两批财政资金共计1620亿元，分别于1月和4月拨付。"If the remaining 138 billion yuan runs out ahead of schedule, the possibility of unveiling additional funding this year cannot be ruled out," said Zhao Wei, chief economist at Shenwan Hongyuan Securities.申万宏源证券首席经济学家赵表示：“如果剩余的1380亿元提前用完，今年不排除推出额外资金的可能性。”。"As the trade war initiated by the United States still weighs on China's economy, efforts to shore up domestic demand will be of paramount importance to mitigate external shocks and maintain steady growth," he said.他说：“由于美国发起的贸易战仍对中国经济造成压力，提振内需对于缓解外部冲击和保持稳定增长至关重要。”。By avoiding a one-time, large-scale fund injection that could disrupt market dynamics, the phased allocation of the fiscal funds helps create a stable and supportive environment for the consumption recovery to take hold throughout the year, Zhao added.赵补充道，通过避免可能扰乱市场动态的一次性大规模资金注入，财政资金的分阶段分配有助于为全年的消费复苏创造稳定和支持性的环境。In late June, the People's Bank of China, the country's central bank, also pledged to leverage various tools in support of the trade-in programs, such as increasing credit support for recycling companies and home renovation suppliers and fast-track financing for manufacturers of energy-efficient smart home products.6月下旬，中国央行中国人民银行还承诺利用各种工具支持以旧换新计划，例如增加对回收公司和家居装修供应商的信贷支持，以及为节能智能家居产品制造商提供快速融资。"Boosted by the trade-in programs, sales of household appliances, furniture and communication devices have registered rapid growth. Sales related to trade-ins have surpassed 1.4 trillion yuan so far this year," said Li Chao, a spokeswoman for the National Development and Reform Commission, when addressing a news conference on June 26.国家发展和改革委员会发言人李超在6月26日的新闻发布会上表示：“在以旧换新计划的推动下，家用电器、家具和通信设备的销售额实现了快速增长。今年到目前为止，与以旧换旧相关的销售额已超过1.4万亿元。”。According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, China's consumer spending in May posted its strongest monthly growth since 2024, with retail sales of consumer goods expanding 6.4 percent year-on-year in May, a 1.3 percentage point increase from April.根据国家统计局的数据，中国5月份的消费支出出现了2024年以来最强劲的月度增长，5月份消费品零售额同比增长6.4%，比4月份增长1.3个百分点。Experts cautioned that although the trade-in policies have been effective in driving sales of consumers goods, they also carry the risk of front-loading consumer demand, which could create challenges down the line.专家警告称，尽管以旧换新政策有效地推动了消费品的销售，但它们也带来了提前满足消费者需求的风险，这可能会在未来带来挑战。"Providing similar consumption incentives to promote service sector spending could become a key policy lever going forward," said Jiang Zhao, an associate researcher at the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation.中国国际贸易经济合作研究院副研究员江赵表示：“提供类似的消费激励措施来促进服务业支出，可能会成为未来的一个关键政策杠杆。”。Jiang noted that development patterns in advanced economies indicate that upon entering high-income status, nations typically experience a gradual rise in the proportion of service consumption. As China approaches this threshold, its consumption structure is transitioning from being focused on goods to being focused on both goods and services, he said.江指出，发达经济体的发展模式表明，进入高收入国家后，服务消费的比例通常会逐渐上升。他说，随着中国接近这一门槛，其消费结构正在从以商品为重点转变为以商品和服务为重点。Nevertheless, service consumption spans diverse sectors such as elderly care, tourism, fitness and healthcare, implying that subsidy programs would demand substantial fiscal funding and pose significant oversight challenges, Jiang said, adding that any decision to implement such incentives would require prudent assessment based on practical conditions.然而，江表示，服务消费涵盖了养老、旅游、健身和医疗保健等多个领域，这意味着补贴计划将需要大量的财政资金，并带来重大的监管挑战。他补充说，任何实施此类激励措施的决定都需要根据实际情况进行审慎评估。fast-track financingn.快速融资consumption structuren.消费结构

China's aviation regulator has banned uncertified power banks on domestic flights, citing urgent safety concerns over fires and other hazards linked to lithium batteries, State media reported on Wednesday.据官方媒体周三报道，中国航空监管机构以对锂电池相关火灾和其他危险的紧急安全担忧为由，禁止未经认证的充电宝乘坐国内航班。The Civil Aviation Administration of China told People's Daily that quality issues with lithium batteries in power banks have threatened aviation safety, prompting the move. The ban, which took effect on Saturday, applies to power banks without valid China Compulsory Certification — known as 3C — those with unclear 3C labels or those subject to product recalls.中国民用航空局告诉《人民日报》，移动电源锂电池的质量问题已经威胁到航空安全，促使采取了这一行动。该禁令于周六生效，适用于没有有效的中国强制认证（即3C）的电力银行，即3C标签不清楚或产品被召回的电力银行。The 3C certification is a mandatory safety and quality standard for products sold in China. For power banks, it ensures they do not pose risks of fire, electric shock or other hazards. The country began 3C certification for power banks on Aug 1, 2023, and sales of products without the certification have been prohibited since Aug 1 last year.3C认证是在中国销售的产品的强制性安全和质量标准。对于移动电源，它确保它们不会造成火灾、触电或其他危险。该国于2023年8月1日开始对移动电源进行3C认证，自去年8月1日起禁止销售未经认证的产品。The administration said the measure follows a surge in incidents globally involving fires and smoke from lithium batteries on aircraft, including 15 cases in China's aviation sector this year. In one incident on Jan 28, a fire broke out on an Air Busan flight due to a passenger's power bank, damaging the aircraft.美国政府表示，该措施是在全球范围内涉及飞机锂电池火灾和烟雾的事件激增之后采取的，其中包括今年中国航空业的15起案件。在1月28日的一起事件中，釜山航空的一架航班因一名乘客的移动电源发生火灾，导致飞机受损。Lithium batteries are prone to risks under external factors such as high temperatures, pressure and collisions, which can lead to internal short circuits and excessive heat. This can trigger thermal runaway in the battery, resulting in fires or explosions that are difficult to extinguish, the regulator said.美国政府表示，该措施是在全球范围内涉及飞机锂电池火灾和烟雾的事件激增之后采取的，其中包括今年中国航空业的15起案件。在1月28日的一起事件中，釜山航空的一架航班因一名乘客的移动电源发生火灾，导致飞机受损。A recent report from China's market regulation authority found that out of 149 batches of power banks inspected, 65 were substandard, the administration noted.政府指出，中国市场监管机构最近的一份报告发现，在检查的149批电力银行中，有65批不合格。A staff member at Beijing Capital International Airport told China Daily that passengers carrying power banks must now show 3C marks at security checks, and devices under recall will not be allowed through. Power banks under 100 watt-hours can be carried onboard, while those between 100 and 160 watt-hours require airline approval. Devices exceeding 160 watt-hours are prohibited.北京首都国际机场的一名工作人员告诉《中国日报》，携带电动银行的乘客现在必须在安检时出示3C标志，被召回的设备将不允许通过。100瓦时以下的移动电源可以携带登机，而100至160瓦时之间的移动电源需要航空公司的批准。禁止使用超过160瓦时的设备。Noncompliant power banks found during checks will be handled according to passengers' preferences, the administration said. Airports will provide areas for passengers to abandon or temporarily store their devices, along with mailing services for those who wish to send them home.政府表示，在检查过程中发现的不合规移动电源将根据乘客的喜好进行处理。机场将为乘客提供丢弃或临时存放设备的区域，并为希望将设备送回家的乘客提供邮寄服务。Power banks abandoned or left beyond storage deadlines will be destroyed or recycled after consultation with battery recovery companies, the administration said. Records will be maintained throughout storage, transfer and recycling to ensure traceability and prevent unauthorized devices from reentering the market.政府表示，在与电池回收公司协商后，废弃或超过储存期限的移动电源将被销毁或回收。记录将在整个储存、转移和回收过程中得到维护，以确保可追溯性，防止未经授权的设备重新进入市场。lithium batteriesn.锂电池traceabilityn.可追溯性

US President Donald Trump said Tuesday the White House will have to examine the possibility of deporting Elon Musk, after the billionaire entrepreneurblasted the president's tax and spending bill.美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周二表示，在这位亿万富翁企业家抨击总统的税收和支出法案后，白宫将不得不研究驱逐埃隆·马斯克的可能性。Musk, who originally hails from South Africa and is now a US citizen, posted several posts of criticism over the weekend on social media aimed at Trump's "big, beautiful bill."马斯克最初来自南非，现在是美国公民，周末在社交媒体上发布了几篇针对特朗普“大而漂亮的法案”的批评帖子The tech titan lambasted the bill for what he said was adding to the US debt.这位科技巨头抨击该法案，称其增加了美国债务。Trump jabbed back on Tuesday, posting on social media that Musk, who is the CEO of electric vehicle company Tesla, was upset that the legislation eliminated tax credits for electric vehicles.周二，特朗普在社交媒体上回击称，电动汽车公司特斯拉的首席执行官马斯克对该立法取消了电动汽车的税收抵免感到不满。This is the latest in a row between the two billionaires, with the two in a tit-for-tat war of words.周二，特朗普在社交媒体上回击称，电动汽车公司特斯拉的首席执行官马斯克对该立法取消了电动汽车的税收抵免感到不满。Trump's sweeping bill, which passed the Senate on Tuesday, includes increased spending for defense, energy production and border security.特朗普周二在参议院通过的全面法案包括增加国防、能源生产和边境安全支出。Trump has implied that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), the organization that Musk helped create in a bid to cut government costs, could be weaponized against Musk's companies.特朗普暗示，马斯克为削减政府成本而帮助创建的政府效率部（DOGE）可能会被用来对付马斯克的公司。"Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history, by far," Trump posted on social media. "Perhaps we should have DOGE take a good, hard, look at this?"特朗普在社交媒体上发帖称：“到目前为止，埃隆可能会获得比历史上任何人都多的补贴。”“也许我们应该让狗狗好好地、认真地看看这个？”Trump has also threatened to get rid of government subsidies that provide benefits to Musk's companies.特朗普还威胁要取消为马斯克的公司提供福利的政府补贴。Musk vowed to punish Republican lawmakers who supported Trump's bill.马斯克发誓要惩罚支持特朗普法案的共和党议员。"We won't know for some time if Musk follows through on his threats against Republicans. That could take the form of funding primary challengers, helping run independent candidates in red states as campaigns, or something else," Christopher Galdieri, a political science professor at Saint Anselm College in the northeastern state of New Hampshire, told Xinhua.新罕布什尔州东北部圣安瑟伦学院的政治学教授克里斯托弗·加迪埃里告诉新华社：“在一段时间内，我们还不知道马斯克是否会兑现他对共和党人的威胁。这可能会采取资助初选挑战者、帮助在红色州竞选独立候选人或其他方式。”。Clay Ramsay, a researcher at the Center for International and Security Studies at the University of Maryland, told Xinhua that Musk's relationship with Trump went in several stages.马里兰大学国际与安全研究中心的研究员克莱·拉姆齐告诉新华社，马斯克与特朗普的关系分为几个阶段。"In the first stage, Musk was willing to spend something like 250 million (US dollars) on Trump's campaign, and Trump liked that," Ramsay said.拉姆齐说：“在第一阶段，马斯克愿意在特朗普的竞选活动上花费大约2.5亿美元，特朗普对此表示欢迎。”。"In the second stage, Musk was Trump's partner in creating DOGE, which functioned something like a fourth branch of government, finding ways to stop spending on items that had been passed by Congress and were required by law. In the third stage, the popular dislike of DOGE resulted in a collapse of Tesla car sales, something which Musk had not expected," he added.他补充道：“在第二阶段，马斯克是特朗普创建DOGE的合作伙伴，DOGE的功能类似于政府的第四个部门，寻找方法停止在国会通过的、法律要求的项目上的支出。在第三阶段，公众对DOGE的厌恶导致了特斯拉汽车销售的崩溃，这是马斯克没有预料到的。”。"In the fourth stage, Musk moved away from direct execution of DOGE's tasks, and as a businessman, found that his companies were in danger of losing valuable support from clean energy subsidies. This, plus his aversion to government debt, explains why he hates the BBB (big beautiful bill)," the researcher concluded.研究人员总结道：“在第四阶段，马斯克不再直接执行DOGE的任务，作为一名商人，他发现他的公司有失去清洁能源补贴的宝贵支持的危险。再加上他对政府债务的厌恶，解释了他为什么讨厌BBB（大美法案）。”。tax creditsn.免税额度collapsen.崩溃、塌陷

China's Tianwen 2 asteroid sampling spacecraft has been on its interplanetary itinerary for more than 33 days, orbiting at a distance of over 12 million kilometers from Earth, and it is in good working condition, the China National Space Administration said on Tuesday. 中国国家航天局周二表示，中国 “天问二号” 小行星采样探测器已在星际旅程中飞行超过 33 天，目前距离地球超过 1200 万公里，工作状态良好。 The robotic probe is currently traveling on a transfer trajectory toward its destination, a near-Earth asteroid called 2016 HO3, the space administration said in a news release. 国家航天局在新闻发布会上称，这台机器人探测器目前正沿着转移轨道飞向其目标 —— 一颗名为 2016 HO3 的近地小行星。 The CNSA also released two images, showing Earth and the moon, captured by the spacecraft's narrow-field-of-view navigation sensor when it was about 590,000 km away from Earth. 中国国家航天局还发布了两张地球和月球的图像，这些图像是探测器在距离地球约 59 万公里时，由其窄视场导航传感器拍摄的。 The Tianwen 2 mission, which is China's first attempt to bring pristine asteroid samples back to Earth, was launched on May 29, when a Long March 3B rocket carrying the robotic probe blasted off from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Sichuan province. “天问二号” 任务是中国首次尝试将原始小行星样本带回地球，该探测器于 5 月 29 日由长征三号乙运载火箭搭载，从四川西昌卫星发射中心发射升空。 The probe's primary objective is to reach 2016 HO3, a small asteroid that is 40 to 100 meters wide, in the summer of 2026. It will study the celestial body up close using a suite of 11 instruments including cameras, spectrometers and radars, before deploying special devices to collect surface substances. 该探测器的主要目标是在 2026 年夏季抵达 2016 HO3 小行星。这颗小行星宽度为 40 至 100 米，探测器将使用包括相机、光谱仪和雷达在内的 11 种仪器对其进行近距离研究，随后部署特殊设备采集表面物质。 The asteroid, which is also known as 469219 Kamo'oalewa, orbits the sun and, therefore, is a constant companion of Earth. It is too distant to be considered a true satellite of Earth, but is the best and most stable example to date of a quasi-satellite.这颗小行星又名 469219 Kamo'oalewa，它围绕太阳运行，因此始终是地球的 “同伴”。由于距离过远，它不能被视为地球真正的卫星，但却是迄今为止最理想、最稳定的准卫星例子。 After the asteroid samples are collected, the Tianwen 2 probe will fly back to Earth's orbit and send a capsule containing the precious materials to the ground. 采集小行星样本后，“天问二号” 探测器将飞回地球轨道，并将装有这些珍贵物质的返回舱送回地面。 The samples will be distributed among scientists, who will examine their physical properties, chemical and mineralogical content and isotopic composition, contributing to studies on the formation and evolution of asteroids and the early solar system. 这些样本将分发给科学家，他们将对样本的物理性质、化学和矿物成分以及同位素组成进行研究，为小行星和早期太阳系的形成与演化研究提供助力。 Delivering the samples to Earth will not be the end of the mission. The Tianwen 2 spacecraft will then enter the second phase of its journey, flying toward a main-belt comet called 311P to conduct a remote-sensing survey and transmit the data back to Earth for scientific research, according to the CNSA. 将样本送回地球并非任务的终点。中国国家航天局表示，“天问二号” 探测器随后将进入任务的第二阶段，飞向一颗名为 311P 的主带彗星，进行遥感探测，并将数据传回地球供科研使用。 The whole mission is expected to yield groundbreaking discoveries and expand the understanding of Earth and small celestial bodies inside the solar system, scientists said.科学家表示，整个任务有望取得突破性发现，加深人类对地球以及太阳系内小天体的认识。 asteroid /ˈæstərɔɪd/ 小行星 probe /prəʊb/ 探测器 trajectory /trəˈdʒektəri/ 轨道；轨迹 isotopic /ˌaɪsəˈtɒpɪk/ 同位素的

The Constitutional Court of Thailand has suspended Paetongtarn Shinawatra from her duties as prime minister pending an ethics investigation over a leaked phone call with a senior Cambodian official.泰国宪法法院已暂停佩通坦・西那瓦的总理职务，等待就其与柬埔寨一名高级官员的泄露通话展开的道德调查结果。 Meeting on Tuesday, the court unanimously agreed to consider Paetongtarn's impeachment over the controversial audio clip of a recent conversation with Cambodian Senate President Hun Sen. 周二召开的会议上，法院一致同意审议针对佩通坦的弹劾案，事由是她近期与柬埔寨参议院议长洪森的一段有争议的录音片段。 Last month, a petition from 36 senators was handed to the Constitutional Court seeking Paetongtarn's removal from office due to the content of her conversation with Hun Sen, in which she refers to a Thai army commander as an "opponent". The senators stated that this remark showed a lack of responsibility and integrity. 上月，36 名参议员向宪法法院提交请愿书，要求罢免佩通坦的职务，原因是她在与洪森的对话中，将一名泰国军队指挥官称为 “对手”。参议员们称，这一言论表明其缺乏责任感和诚信。 The petition requested a ruling under Section 170, paragraph three, combined with Section 82 of the Thai Constitution. The petition described the contents of the clip as devastating to Thai sovereignty, the military and people. It also asked the Constitutional Court to suspend Paetongtarn from her duties as PM until the Constitutional Court issues a ruling, in accordance with the Charter. 该请愿书请求依据泰国宪法第 170 条第 3 款及第 82 条作出裁决。请愿书称，录音片段内容对泰国主权、军队和人民造成了严重损害。它还要求宪法法院根据宪章规定，在作出裁决前暂停佩通坦的总理职务。 In a statement released Tuesday, the court said it had accepted the petition and announced an order on Paetongtarn's suspension from official duties effective immediately, pending a final ruling. 在周二发布的一份声明中，法院表示已受理该请愿书，并宣布暂停佩通坦公职的命令立即生效，等待最终裁决。 Also on Tuesday, the Thai cabinet approved the secretariat's proposal to instruct the country's deputy prime ministers to act on behalf of Paetongtarn while she is unable to perform her duties. 同样在周二，泰国内阁批准了秘书处的提议，指示副总理们在佩通坦无法履行职责时代为行事。 Since Deputy Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai is still awaiting royal endorsement of his new position of interior minister, which he is due to receive on Thursday, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport Suriya Jungrungreangkit will serve as acting prime minister. 由于副总理蓬谭・韦差亚猜仍在等待王室对其内政部长新职位的批准（定于周四获批），副总理兼交通部长素里亚・春伦良金将担任代理总理。 Suriya would possess full authority equivalent to the prime minister and be able to issue orders regarding appointments and budgets. He will also lead the new cabinet in Thursday's oath-taking ceremony, according to Thai media. 据泰国媒体报道，素里亚将拥有与总理同等的全部权力，能够发布有关任命和预算的命令。他还将在周四的新内阁宣誓就职仪式上担任领誓人。 suspend /səˈspend/ 暂停；中止 impeachment /ɪmˈpiːtʃmənt/ 弹劾 petition /pəˈtɪʃn/ 请愿书；请愿 sovereignty /ˈsɒvrənti/ 主权；最高统治权

With the Communist Party of China witnessing a steady expansion in its membership, primary-level Party organizations are growing stronger and assuming crucial roles in governance across diverse sectors, as underscored in a report issued on Monday.正如周一发布的一份报告所强调的那样，随着中国共产党党员人数的稳步增长，基层党组织越来越强大，并在不同部门的治理中发挥着至关重要的作用。Released by the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, one day ahead of the Party's 104th founding anniversary on July 1, the report revealed that by the end of 2024, Party membership had surged to over 100.27 million members.中共中央组织部在7月1日建党104周年纪念日前一天发布的报告显示，截至2024年底，党员人数已激增至1.0027亿以上。Over 2.13 million people joined the CPC in 2024, of which 1.12 million were at the forefront of production and work, accounting for 52.6 percent, the report said.报告称，2024年，超过213万人加入了中国共产党，其中112万人处于生产和工作的最前沿，占52.6%。It also showed that the CPC had 5.25 million primary-level organizations at the end of 2024, an increase of 74,000 compared with the previous year.报告还显示，截至2024年底，中国共产党有525万个基层组织，比上年增加7.4万个。Zhuang Deshui, deputy head of Peking University's Research Center of Public Policy, emphasized the importance of grassroots Party organizations, stating that their continuous growth helps to better implement policies from the central authorities, unite the people in facing challenges and address public concerns more promptly.北京大学公共政策研究中心副主任庄德水强调了基层党组织的重要性，指出基层党组织不断壮大有助于更好地落实中央政策，团结人民共同应对挑战，更及时地解决公众关切。He drew a parallel between these organizations and the blood vessels of the human body, saying that "the seamless functioning of blood vessels is vital in ensuring an individual's health and vitality".他将这些组织与人体血管进行了比较，称“血管的无缝功能对于确保个人的健康和活力至关重要”。"Primary-level organizations, being the closest to the people, should proactively lead in providing assistance when needed, while also essentially improving their governance capabilities to effectively resolve difficulties faced by the people," he said.他说：“基层组织最贴近人民，应在需要时主动提供援助，同时从根本上提高治理能力，有效解决人民面临的困难。”。The CPC continues to exercise self-supervision and self-governance by upholding the spirit of reform and applying strict standards. It has focused on strengthening primary-level organizations and nurturing a team of Party members who hold themselves to the highest standards, in order to provide an organizational guarantee for building China into a strong country and realizing national rejuvenation on all fronts by pursuing Chinese modernization, according to the latest report.中国共产党继续坚持改革精神，严格标准，实行自我监督和自我治理。根据最新报告，它重点加强基层组织建设，培养一支坚持最高标准的党员队伍，为通过追求中国现代化，全面建设强国和实现民族复兴提供组织保障。In recent weeks, Party organizations at all levels in Hechi, a city in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, have been involved at the forefront of rescue efforts amid flood disasters caused by continuous heavy rainfall, safeguarding the lives and property of the people.近几周来，广西壮族自治区河池市各级党组织在持续暴雨引发的洪涝灾害中，始终站在救援工作的最前沿，保障了人民的生命财产安全。In the early hours of June 21, a total of 31 people were trapped in Wuzhuan, a town in Donglan county in Guangxi, due to severe flooding.6月21日凌晨，由于严重洪灾，广西东兰县婺源镇共有31人被困。The Party organization at the local emergency department promptly intervened, rescuing and relocating all those in danger, according to Guangxi Daily.据《广西日报》报道，当地应急部门的党组织迅速介入，营救并转移了所有处于危险中的人。Zhuang praised the quick response of primary-level Party organizations in the rescue efforts, adding that such leadership and action have also played a vital role in various sectors, including combating the epidemic, poverty alleviation, rural revitalization and advancing key construction projects.庄赞扬了基层党组织在救援工作中的快速反应，并补充说，这种领导和行动在抗击疫情、扶贫、乡村振兴和推进重点建设项目等各个领域也发挥了至关重要的作用。"On the path to Chinese modernization, it's essential for Party organizations at the grassroots level to guide people to bravely face the challenges," Zhuang said."The greater the challenges, the more these organizations should stand at the forefront," he added. Zhuang also underlined the importance of further enhancing self-governance within the Party to deal with emerging issues.庄说：“在中国现代化的道路上，基层党组织必须引导人民勇敢地面对挑战。”。他补充道：“挑战越大，这些组织就越应该站在最前沿。”。庄还强调了进一步加强党内自治以应对新问题的重要性。In another example, the Party organization at the Beijing International Commercial Tribunal has taken actions to help improve the judges' dispute resolution capabilities.另一个例子是，北京国际商事法庭的党组织已采取行动，帮助提高法官的争议解决能力。"We've organized judges who are Party members to strengthen their learning of the Party's theory and history, as well as updated laws and policies, to ensure the quality of their adjudication of international commercial disputes," said Ma Jun, chief judge of the tribunal at the Beijing No 4 Intermediate People's Court.北京市第四中级人民法院仲裁庭首席法官马军表示：“我们组织了党员法官加强对党的理论和历史以及最新法律和政策的学习，以确保他们对国际商事纠纷的裁决质量。”。He noted that such in-depth study also aims to bolster the construction of the foreign-related judicial system and improve legal services for domestic and foreign litigants.他指出，这种深入研究也旨在加强涉外司法体系建设，改善对国内外当事人的法律服务。Data from the latest report showed that workers and farmers accounted for about 32.7 percent of all CPC members.最新报告的数据显示，工人和农民约占中共党员总数的32.7%。Of the total CPC membership, 57.6 percent hold junior college degrees or above, 1.4 percentage points higher than at the end of 2023.中共党员中，大专以上学历占57.6%，比2023年底提高1.4个百分点。Women accounted for 30.9 percent of all CPC members, up 0.5 percentage points from 2023, it said, adding that the proportion of members from ethnic minority groups remained at 7.7 percent.报告称，女性占中共党员总数的30.9%，比2023年上升了0.5个百分点，少数民族党员的比例仍保持在7.7%。poverty alleviationn.扶贫rural revitalizationn.乡村振兴

Investor interest is shifting toward emerging consumer trends, such as trendy IP-driven toys, the booming pet economy, and a rise of guochao gold jewelry and innovative tea brands, which are expected to become the next breakout consumption stories. 投资者的关注点正转向新兴消费趋势，如 IP 驱动的潮流玩具、蓬勃发展的宠物经济，以及国潮黄金珠宝和创新茶饮品牌的崛起，这些领域有望成为下一个突破性的消费热点。 Since the second quarter, shares of several new consumption companies have posted large gains, including Pop Mart, Laopu Gold and China Pet Foods. 自第二季度以来，多家新消费公司的股价大幅上涨，包括泡泡玛特、老铺黄金和中宠股份。 For example, fashionable gold jewelry, once considered traditional, has become a hot pursuit for young consumers who seek self-pleasure — a term used in China to describe individual-driven consumption for personal satisfaction. 例如，曾经被视为传统的时尚黄金珠宝，已成为追求 “自我愉悦” 的年轻消费者的热门之选 ——“自我愉悦” 在中国指的是为个人满足感而驱动的消费行为。 That trend is lifting names like CHJ Jewellery, whose shares have jumped 75.7 percent since April and about 189 percent since last year. 这一趋势推动着诸如潮宏基珠宝等品牌的发展，其股价自 4 月以来上涨了 75.7%，自去年以来涨幅约 189%。 CHJ has expanded aggressively even as broader retail growth slows. In 2025, it pushed into international markets by opening stores in Cambodia's Aeon Mall Phnom Penh, which the company said has laid the groundwork for its global ambitions. 即便整体零售增长放缓，潮宏基仍在积极扩张。2025 年，该公司通过在柬埔寨金边永旺购物中心开店进军国际市场，称这为其全球野心奠定了基础。Chow Tai Seng Jewellery has also reported expansion. On June 19, the company announced the opening of seven new self-operated stores in May, focused on plain gold and inlaid jewelry products. 周大生珠宝也宣布了扩张计划。6 月 19 日，该公司宣布 5 月新开设了七家自营店，主要销售素金和镶嵌珠宝产品。 The pet economy, another key pillar of new consumption, is also attracting institutional attention. Hangzhou Tianyuan Pet Products, a leading player in the segment, sells pet beds, cat trees, toys and electronic gear, reflecting rising consumer expectations for pet companionship as a lifestyle. Tianyuan has rallied 40.6 percent since April, driven by growing demand for pet lifestyle upgrades — from smart devices and clothing to gourmet food. 宠物经济作为新消费的另一大支柱，也在吸引机构关注。该领域龙头企业杭州天元宠物用品销售宠物床、猫爬架、玩具和电子设备，反映出消费者将宠物陪伴视为一种生活方式的期望日益提升。受宠物生活方式升级需求（从智能设备、服装到 gourmet 食品）增长的推动，天元宠物自 4 月以来股价上涨了 40.6%。 According to market research agency Mintel, China's urban pet market reached 279.3 billion yuan ($38.9 billion) in 2023 and is forecast to grow steadily — albeit at a slower pace — through 2029. 根据市场研究机构英敏特的数据，2023 年中国城市宠物市场规模达 2793 亿元（389 亿美元），预计到 2029 年将稳步增长（尽管增速放缓）。 Victoria Li, associate director of lifestyles and trends at Mintel China, said, "With more single-person households, an aging population, and a 'low-desire lifestyle' taking hold, pets are becoming emotional anchors in the lives of younger consumers." 英敏特中国生活方式与趋势副总监李维多利亚表示：“随着单身家庭增多、人口老龄化以及‘低欲望生活方式’的盛行，宠物正成为年轻消费者生活中的情感寄托。” The pet food market alone is expected to reach 76.3 billion yuan by 2029 even as growth moderates into single digits, said Li. 李维多利亚称，即便增长放缓至个位数，仅宠物食品市场规模到 2029 年也有望达到 763 亿元。 In a recent report, Guosen Securities outlined seven macro trends that are reshaping China's consumer investment logic: digital consumption, self-pleasing consumption (such as personal care), emotional-value consumption (including pets and the guzi economy), health-oriented products, the convenience economy (like instant meals and on-demand delivery), value-for-money substitutes, and new identity-driven trends such as guochao and sustainability. 国信证券在最近的一份报告中概述了重塑中国消费投资逻辑的七大宏观趋势：数字消费、自我愉悦消费（如个护）、情感价值消费（包括宠物和 “谷子经济”）、健康导向产品、便利经济（如即食餐和按需配送）、性价比替代品，以及国潮和可持续性等新身份驱动趋势。 BA Capital, a leading consumer-focused private equity firm in China, has backed brands including Pop Mart, Laopu Gold, and Urban Revivo. The firm describes a key demographic tailwind it calls the "Aesthetic Generation" — younger consumers raised amid material abundance who are both willing and able to pay for design, storytelling and immersive brand experiences. 中国领先的消费领域私募股权公司 BA Capital 曾投资泡泡玛特、老铺黄金和 URBAN REVIVO 等品牌。该公司将其称为 “审美一代” 的关键人口结构红利描述为：在物质充裕环境中成长的年轻消费者，既愿意也有能力为设计、品牌故事和沉浸式体验付费。 That sentiment is backed by Mintel. According to Victoria Li at Mintel China, 45 percent of consumers — rising to 51 percent among high-income groups — said that limited-edition collaborations with beloved IPs or collectible toys significantly enhance brand appeal. But the deeper shift, she said, is in the emotional architecture of consumption itself. 这一观点得到英敏特的支持。英敏特中国的李维多利亚指出，45% 的消费者（高收入群体中升至 51%）表示，与热门 IP 的联名限量款或收藏玩具会显著提升品牌吸引力。但她表示，更深层的转变在于消费本身的情感架构。 "For Gen Z, trendy toys are no longer toys — they're cultural shorthand for identity, values and taste," Li said. "In today's market, emotional resonance, symbolic meaning and scarcity can outweigh the material product itself." “对 Z 世代而言，潮流玩具不再只是玩具 —— 它们是身份、价值观和品味的文化缩写，” 李维多利亚说，“在当今市场，情感共鸣、象征意义和稀缺性可能比物质产品本身更重要。” 重点词汇 IP-driven toys /ˌaɪ ˈpiː ˈdrɪvən tɔɪz/ IP 驱动玩具 pet economy /pet ɪˈkɑːnəmi/ 宠物经济 guochao gold jewelry /ˈɡwɔː tʃaʊ ɡoʊld ˈdʒuːəlri/ 国潮黄金珠宝 self-pleasing consumption /self ˈpliːzɪŋ kənˈsʌmpʃn/ 自我愉悦消费
