The wind and rain impact of Typhoon Dussuri has not yet ended, and Typhoon Kanu, the 6th typhoon, has quickly taken over. Today, there are two pieces of information worth paying attention to about "Kanu". Firstly, this morning, "Kanu" erupted rapidly, opened a clear typhoon eye, and its intensity is still increasing; Secondly, "Kanu" suddenly turned around in the East China Sea and did not land in Zhejiang? According to the Shanghai center Meteorological Observatory, the latest forecast path of "Kanu" has been significantly adjusted compared with the previous one, which is mainly related to the instability of the subtropical high in the future and the active tropical convection on the east side of "Kanu". As of the time of publication, the new landing point for "Kanu" has not yet been announced. Industry experts say that currently, professional institutions, numerical models, and AI models in various countries are also uncertain about the specific trend of "Kanu". But it can be confirmed that the future circulation of "Kanu" will be huge and strong.

Loss of chip production capacity in Malaysia? Vietnam snatches away electrical orders? It doesn't exist! There are many chips in Shanghai's processing and trade. The localization rate | Southeast Asia | Vietnam | OEM | chip | transfer | production capacity | processing and trade | Shanghai

Faced with shrinking foreign demand and a decrease in overseas orders, the total import and export value of processing trade in Shanghai's customs area reached 191.742 billion yuan in the first half of this year, still achieving a growth of 6.4%. According to the analysis of Shanghai Customs, the reason why Shanghai's processing trade can maintain growth is related to its high added value and long industrial chain. The multiple convenient policies introduced by import and export regulatory authorities have also contributed to the high-quality development of Shanghai's foreign trade. Group bonded is a new policy being innovatively piloted in Shanghai, which refers to the free and convenient circulation of bonded materials and non priced equipment between different companies under the same group, without being inspected in principle. For example, Shanghai Advanced Semiconductor and Jita Semiconductor both belong to the same group, but one is located in the Caohejing Development Zone and the other is in the Lingang New Area, and they can enjoy the convenience of exchanging bonded materials for incoming processing with each other

Can rectification work?, Yunnan's "Unreasonable Low Price Tour" Shopping | Tour Guide | Low Price

This summer, Yunnan tourism has repeatedly attracted public attention due to issues such as "low-priced tour groups," "black tour guides," "forced shopping," and "prohibition of journalists and lawyers reporting low prices.". For this reason, Yunnan Province recently held a meeting requiring travel agencies and tour guides to strictly prohibit arranging team shopping during their itinerary. An internal notice shows that the province requires strict inspections and rectification to begin on July 27th, with a "unified action throughout the province.". The chaos of low-priced tour groups in Yunnan has a long history, which is closely related to both the external environmental factors of the overall price war in the tourism industry and the characteristics of the Yunnan tourism market itself. How much can we expect from Yunnan's heavy lifting of low-priced tours? 【1】 According to market rules, if the cost of an item is 2000 yuan, the selling price must be higher than 2000 yuan in order for the merchant to make money. But in the tourism industry, this pattern is not only being challenged

If we say "Kanu" is the most eerie typhoon this year, I'm afraid no one will have any objections. Today, the path predicted by the supercomputer for "Kanu" can be described as "heavenly maidens scattering flowers". From the graph, it can be seen that the numerical forecast model suggests that there are many possible paths for Kanu to travel in the future. The Shanghai center Meteorological Observatory also believes that the future path of Kanu is complex and diverse. Is the supercomputer not working properly? What is the reason for the unpredictable changes in "Kanu"? The answer to the first question is clearly negative. In the early stages of "Kanu", most supercomputers from various institutions had given expectations for landing in Zhejiang. But as the weather system changes, expectations change. Simply put, there are various weather systems at sea today, which are complex and variable, and may even affect each other. this

In the hot summer, many car owners will put some mineral water in their cars. Some people are concerned that the high temperature inside the car may cause the mineral water to spoil, decompose plastics, and dissolve plasticizers into the water. There are even rumors online that exposed mineral water is toxic. Are these claims reliable? To understand the truth, the Shanghai Consumer Protection Commission purchased three common brands of mineral water, simulated the temperature inside the car in summer, and conducted relevant tests on the exposed mineral water. Firstly, simulate the temperature inside the car in summer, place the mineral water in a constant temperature and humidity box, observe the sensory properties of the mineral water, test for harmful substances, and conduct a decolorization test on colored mineral water bottles. As a result, it was found that the state, color, taste, and odor of the mineral water did not change, and no ortho benzene substances and heavy metals were detected. There was also no pigment pollution in the colored mineral water bottle. According to the introduction, the city

Why should children be introduced to wild animals wearing black masks? Love summer daycare class provides answers: Love | Wildlife | Black

As soon as an animal with a black mask on its face appeared on the screen, a dozen or so small hands were raised high in the classroom and said, "Teacher, I know! It's a raccoon dog!" This was a scene that happened in Tianlin Elementary School today. Starting from July 3rd this year, the 2023 Shanghai Primary School Love Summer Care Class will be opened simultaneously in 16 districts throughout the city. This summer, more than 870 environmental protection public welfare courses will be offered at 579 caring summer care centers in the city, covering wildlife protection, plastic restriction and reduction, food conservation, water and electricity conservation, etc. It is expected that more than 30000 primary school students will benefit from these courses.
