The second Saturday of September every year is the World First Aid Day, which aims to publicize and popularize the knowledge and skills of emergency rescue and improve the public’s self-help ability. This year is the 24th World First Aid Day. Let’s talk about what we should call "120" and what we should pay attention to.

   What situations do you need to call 120?

    What would you do if we suddenly suffered an accidental injury or a friend around us suddenly fainted? You may answer, call "120" emergency number. This answer is not entirely correct. The 120 hotline, also known as the "life hotline", is like a life-saving straw. Behind every emergency call, there is a life that needs help. But what needs to be understood is that not all unexpected situations need to call 120, and the "life hotline" should be left to those who really need emergency assistance.

    So, what circumstances need to call 120 emergency number? If you are outside the hospital, such as at home, in public places, or in the wild, once you have a sudden critical illness such as heart disease and stroke; Serious injuries caused by car accidents and accidental injuries; Fire, drowning, electric shock, poisoning, trampling and other sudden disasters; When there are major problems in life and health due to various unexpected factors, you should immediately call 120 for help.

   What are the symptoms of sudden critical illness?

    Let’s talk in detail about what symptoms may be sudden critical illness. If you encounter the following situations, don’t hesitate to call 120 for first aid immediately.

    1. If sudden severe chest pain, palpitation, dyspnea, fainting, accompanied by sweating and other symptoms, you should suspect a heart attack.

    2. In case of sudden hemiplegia, skewed mouth, confusion, difficulty in speaking or understanding, difficulty in seeing things with one eye or both eyes, severe headache, syncope, etc., you need to be alert to cerebrovascular accidents.

    3. The patient is pale, sweating profusely, with a fast but weak pulse and decreased blood pressure, which may be shock or collapse.

    4. A large number of hemoptysis or hematemesis also indicate that a critical illness may suddenly occur.

   What details should I pay attention to when dialing 120?

    The "120" emergency call is the first signal and premise to start rescuing critical patients. Invalid calls will seriously affect the normal work of the command center, delay the rescue time and waste emergency resources. In the process of making a phone call, you should also pay attention to the following six points to avoid delaying the treatment time.

    1. When dialing 120, you should try to stay calm, don’t panic, and speak clearly and concisely.

    2. Make clear the patient’s symptoms or injuries, so as to send a car accurately, and also make clear the site location, waiting place and contact telephone number that can be connected, so as to facilitate contact.

    3. After dialing 120, you can arrange people to wait for the bus at the intersection or next to obvious signs, and wave when you see the ambulance, so as to save time.

    4. If people from other places in Beijing are not familiar with their location, they should ask local people for help or call for help on their behalf.

    5. If you are at the junction of two counties and cities, the mobile phone signal is prone to drift, which can be avoided by using a fixed telephone. If there is no condition, you can also ask the emergency center where the signal drift is received to call for help.

    6. When dialing 120 on the expressway, it is necessary to explain the direction and general orientation. There is a kilometer sign on the shoulder, and the expressway code and kilometers should be clearly stated.

    It should be noted that dialing 120 is generally not allowed to specify a hospital. The 120 Command and Dispatch Center uniformly allocates the city’s emergency resources, and handles emergency patients in different levels and districts. First, hospitals are allocated according to the principles of being nearby, being urgent and professional, so as to ensure that patients can be treated quickly.

    In addition, it should be understood that there is a charge for calling an ambulance, which generally includes two parts: ambulance fee and pre-hospital first aid fee. Of course, these fees are uniformly stipulated by local provinces and cities, and all fees are based on standards. You don’t have to worry about the inflated fees.

It is not easy to achieve such achievements under the circumstances that the adverse impact of international environmental changes is increasing, external demand is weakening, cyclical problems and structural contradictions are intertwined, and it is achieved under the background of seeking truth from facts, revising the base period, doing the current period, and striving to improve the quality of statistical data. It fully reflects Henan’s ample room for manoeuvre and strong economic resilience as a major economic province, and fully demonstrates the efforts of the provincial party Committee and government in recent years to seek the long-term, lay the foundation, grasp the key points and increase the stamina.

　　Ladies and gentlemen, friends of the press, the Sixth Plenary Session of the Eleventh Provincial Party Committee and the Economic Work Conference of the Provincial Party Committee have made comprehensive arrangements for economic work in 2024, and the upcoming "two sessions" of the province will be further refined, materialized and concrete. Guided by the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, we will anchor the "two guarantees", continue to implement the "Ten Major Strategies" and promote the "Ten Major Construction", consolidate and enhance the trend of economic recovery, comprehensively promote the practice of Chinese-style modernization in Henan, and courageously strive for the first place in the new journey of building a strong country and national rejuvenation.

　　Note: 1. The growth rate of regional GDP and its classified projects is calculated at constant prices.

　　2. According to the unified accounting and data release system of China’s regional GDP, the annual regional GDP accounting includes two steps: preliminary accounting and final verification. The preliminary accounting mainly uses the growth rate of relevant indicators to calculate; The final verification is mainly based on the statistical annual report, financial final accounts and the annual financial data of relevant departments, which is a revision of the preliminary accounting data. Since last year, Henan has made great efforts to improve the data quality, intensify the verification of statistical data, and seek truth from facts to correct the historical data of the same period. After final verification, in 2022, the current total GDP of our province was 5,822.013 billion yuan, calculated at constant prices, an increase of 2.4% over the previous year.

　　Pingping

　　Thank you, Secretary-General, for your comprehensive and detailed release. Let’s enter the question-and-answer session, and welcome reporters and friends to ask questions about the content of this conference. Please inform your news organization before asking questions.

　　People’s Daily reporter

　　In the past year, what did Henan mainly do in promoting project construction and expanding effective investment? How effective is it? Thank you.

　　Ma Jian, Party Secretary and Director of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission

　　Thank you for your question. In 2023, the provincial party committee and the provincial government continued to take project construction as the main focus of economic work, guided project construction with new development concepts, grasped key links such as planning reserves, landing construction, factor supply and service guarantee with high quality, and made every effort to accelerate the construction of major projects such as the "Tenth Five-Year Plan", forming a strong trend of steady growth, innovation, rotational energy and new quality driven by projects. We have mainly done the following four aspects:

　　First, rolling out the "three batches" project construction activities. Always take industrial projects as the top priority, carry out four phases of "three batches" project construction activities, adhere to the leading projects, specialized and special new projects, technological upgrading projects and beach preemption projects, and promote a number of leading projects such as Zhengzhou BYD New Energy Vehicle, SAIC Zhengzhou Passenger Car Phase II, Luoyang Petrochemical Million Tons of Ethylene, and the province’s industrial investment increased by 8.9% year-on-year. Among them, investment in high-tech manufacturing and industrial technological transformation increased by 22.6% and 17.4% respectively, accounting for 15.5% and 24.7% of industrial investment, up by 1.7 and 1.8 percentage points respectively. The change of project structure is leading the change of industrial structure and industrial energy level. The added value of high-tech manufacturing in the province accounted for 14.7% of the industrial added value, up by 1.8 percentage points year-on-year.

　　The second is to continue to implement important projects and focus on tackling key problems. Adhere to the overall war, coordinated war, and tough battles, focus on major projects such as "three batches", central budget investment, special bonds, and additional government bonds, establish a coordination and promotion mechanism for key projects led by the governor, and build a closed-loop work of sorting out problems, joint consultation, assigning supervision, tracking and asking for results, and establish three systems of monthly scheduling, construction, and white list and verification of factor guarantee for major projects. Priority was given to ensuring capital, land use, energy consumption, environmental capacity and other essential resources. In the whole year, a total of 17.58 billion yuan was obtained from the central budget, 39.38 billion yuan was issued with additional treasury bonds, and 182.9 billion yuan was issued with special bonds, which strongly supported the construction of a large number of infrastructure and public service projects.

　　The third is to deepen reform and innovation and continuously optimize the investment environment. Solidly promote the reform of the examination and approval system of investment projects, reshape the examination and approval process with the "parallel examination and approval+coordination mechanism" as the core, and implement measures such as joint inspection, joint surveying and mapping, joint drawing examination, joint acceptance and "standard land+commitment system" to further improve the scientific, standardized and convenient level of investment examination and approval. Focusing on the problems that restrict the development of private investment, we introduced and implemented 19 specific policies and measures to stimulate the vitality of private investment, regularly introduced major construction projects and stock assets projects to private capital, and sorted out and introduced the first batch of 199 major projects with a total investment of 126.28 billion yuan.

　　Fourth, efforts should be made to improve the project planning and reserve mechanism. Closely link up with major national plans and policies, explore the establishment of a reserve mechanism for research and planning of major projects, efficiently promote preliminary research and demonstration, reserve major projects in key areas such as industrial transformation, scientific and technological innovation, rural revitalization, infrastructure, people’s livelihood security, and ecological and environmental protection, speed up the preparation for the early stage of projects and start construction, build a virtuous circle of dynamic adjustment, stubble implementation, and rolling succession, and strive to achieve "projects and other funds" and "start construction as soon as money arrives".

　　The Central Economic Work Conference emphasized the need to "expand effective investment". The Sixth Plenary Session of the Eleventh Provincial Party Committee and the Economic Work Conference of the Provincial Party Committee made specific arrangements for the project construction and effective investment in the province in 2024. In the next step, according to the deployment requirements of the provincial party committee and government, we will further strengthen the concept of "project is king", expand effective investment with high-quality project construction, continuously optimize investment structure, improve investment efficiency and expand investment space, and provide strong support for promoting stable economic growth, cultivating new quality productivity and accelerating the transformation of old and new kinetic energy. Thank you.

　　Reporter of Central Radio and Television General Station

　　I want to know how Henan implements the strategy of innovation-driven, rejuvenating the province through science and education and strengthening the province with talents, and leads the high-quality economic development with the support of scientific and technological innovation. Thank you.

　　Aring Zhang, Party Secretary and Director of Provincial Science and Technology Department.

　　Thank you for your question. Innovation is the first driving force for development. At present, the economy of our province has turned to a high-quality development stage, which puts forward higher and more urgent requirements for scientific and technological innovation, and it is even more necessary to rely on scientific and technological innovation to promote the development of modern industrial system, especially to promote new industries, new models and new kinetic energy with subversive technologies and cutting-edge technologies, develop new quality productivity, and inject strong impetus into high-quality economic development. The provincial party committee put forward the strategic deployment of anchoring the "two guarantees" and implementing the "Ten Strategies", and put the strategy of innovation-driven, rejuvenating the province through science and education and strengthening the province with talents at the top of the "Ten Strategies" to accelerate the construction of a national innovation highland and an important talent center. At present, innovation and development are in full swing, and the "first strategy" is accelerated in an all-round way. Innovation has become a remarkable symbol of modern Henan construction.

　　First, the pattern of "two cities and one valley" was accelerated. There are 42 R&D entities in the provincial academy of sciences, ranking first in the national provincial academy of sciences; A number of first-class universities such as Shanghai Jiaotong University set up Zhengzhou Research Institute in Zhongyuan Science and Technology City; Henan technology trading market unveiled; Zhongyuan Science and Technology City ranked 19th in the national science and technology city. 53 scientific research platforms above the provincial level have settled in the "Central Plains Agricultural Valley" and built a demonstration area of 1 million mu of high-standard farmland. Rebuilding the deep integration of the Provincial Academy of Medical Sciences and the Central Plains Medical Science City, six academicians have been employed as chief scientists and have settled in eight research institutes.

　　Second, the source of high-energy innovation platform is more solid and powerful. The core node of the National Supercomputing Internet was officially launched in Zhengzhou, and the Henan Experimental Base of Yazhouwan Laboratory was jointly built to sign a cooperation agreement; Seven national key laboratories were reorganized and six new ones were built, and five engineering research centers were included in the national management sequence, bringing the number of national innovation platforms in our province to 172; Construction of 16 provincial laboratories and 3 industrial technology research institutes; The pilot service income of 36 provincial pilot bases reached 1.41 billion yuan.

　　Third, the new industrial technology innovation system is improving day by day. There are 116 innovative leading enterprises, and the total number of "Gazelle" enterprises has reached 454. It is estimated that the total number of high-tech enterprises will exceed 12,000 this year, and 26,000 national small and medium-sized science and technology enterprises will be put on record, ranking seventh in the country. Enterprises in the whole province will enjoy R&D expenses plus deduction of 68.6 billion yuan, and "science and technology loans" will be 4.953 billion yuan. Leading enterprises in science and technology took the lead in setting up 28 innovation consortia, and made breakthroughs in tackling key core technologies. In 2023, they won 16 national key R&D special projects with a capital of 197 million yuan and a funding of 552 million yuan from the National Natural Fund. More than 200 major scientific and technological projects in the province were launched, with an investment of 700 million yuan.

　　Fourth, the layout of higher education has been adjusted and optimized.

　　Vigorously promoting new industrialization is a major deployment of the CPC Central Committee and a hot spot of concern to the whole society. Excuse me, what are the key measures in promoting new industrialization in Henan, and what breakthroughs have been made at present? Thank you.

　　Li Jiantao, Party Secretary and Director of the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology

　　Thank you for your attention to industry and information technology. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that in the new era and new journey, it is the key task to comprehensively promote the construction of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation with Chinese modernization and realize new industrialization. Over the past year, the provincial party Committee and government have thoroughly studied and implemented the important instructions of the General Secretary, clearly proposed to promote new industrialization to lead and support the practice of Chinese-style modernization in Henan, and organized the province to deepen its work in five aspects.

　　First, take the steady growth of industry as the material basis of new industrialization. Adhere to the principle of stability first, strive for progress in stability, do everything possible to promote industrial recovery and growth, and resolutely shoulder the political responsibility of stabilizing the industrial economy. We will further promote the activity of "ten thousand people help ten thousand enterprises", organize production and marketing, industry and finance, employment and Industry-University-Research docking at different levels, and "one enterprise and one policy" will open up the pain points and solve more than 110 thousand enterprise demands. Establish a daily monitoring week scheduling system for key industries, key cities, counties and key enterprises, formulate support policies for the transformation of key industrial chains into three industries, further promote a new round of technological transformation and upgrading, and successfully hold major events such as China industrial transfer and development docking, international intelligent networked automobile competition and world sensor conference. In 2023, the province’s industrial technological transformation investment increased by 17.4% year-on-year, 12.7 percentage points higher than the national level, and the industrial added value increased by 5% year-on-year and 0.4 percentage points higher than the national level.

　　The second is to strengthen the "7+28+N" group chain as a strategic support to promote new industrialization. "7" is to build seven advanced manufacturing clusters of new materials, new energy vehicles, electronic information, advanced equipment, modern medicine, modern food and modern textiles; "28" is to cultivate and expand 28 key industrial chains such as superhard materials; "n" is to cultivate a number of specialized and special new industrial chains in the segmentation field. Over the past year, the provincial party committee and government have taken building key industrial cluster chains as the bull’s nose to promote the high-quality development of manufacturing industry, insisting on turning the point into beads and beads into chains, with multiple chains and clusters of chains, diversified layout and key breakthroughs, formulating the overall plan and 28 chain-splitting plans for key industrial chains with high standards, holding a high-standard promotion meeting for new industrialization and key industrial chain cultivation, and innovatively launching "chain length+special classes" and "atlas+list". At present, the "7+28+N" cluster chain has gathered more than 70% of the key innovation platforms in the province, created more than 80% of the total import and export volume and more than 60% of the industrial output value, and has become the main battlefield for Henan to promote new industrialization.

　　The third is to focus on the "six new" breakthroughs as the main direction of promoting new industrialization. The Fifth Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Provincial Party Committee proposed to lay out new infrastructure in a forward-looking way, concentrate on conquering new technologies, vigorously develop new materials, actively build new equipment, diversify new products, accelerate the cultivation of new formats, and lead and empower new industrialization with the breakthrough of "six new". The province has opened a total of 187,000 5G base stations, achieving full coverage of 5G networks and Gigabit optical networks in areas above towns and villages, and the Henan Data Center, the Central Plains Data Base and the National Supercomputing Zhengzhou Center have been completed and put into operation. The National Agricultural Machinery and Equipment Innovation Center released 11 cutting-edge technical products, the spindle bearing of 16 MW wind power and the spindle of 12-meter shield machine in Luozhou were replaced by imports, the world’s first green shield machine "China Railway No.1237" was exported overseas, the world’s highest 10-meter hydraulic support of Zhengmei machine was officially rolled off the assembly line, and the key technologies of multi-fluorine and high-end inorganic fluorine chemical industry broke the foreign monopoly. Puyang released the world’s first hydrogen-powered humanoid robot, and the first artificial intelligence model "Apas" in the province landed in Zhengdong New District and Quantum Valley in the Central Plains. Citic heavy industries and other 12 enterprises were selected for the national pilot demonstration of the integration of new generation information technology and manufacturing, Yutong Bus and other 14 enterprises were selected for the national pilot demonstration of industrial internet, and Daxin Home and other 27 enterprises were selected for the national service-oriented manufacturing demonstration.

　　The fourth is to take "one transformation and three transformations" as the key to promote new industrialization. "One turn" means digital transformation, and "three transformations" means promoting the high-end, intelligent and green development of manufacturing industry. As a populous province and a big economic province, Henan has massive data resources, rich application scenarios and broad market demand. Over the past year, the provincial party committee and government have thoroughly implemented the strategy of digital transformation, formulated and promulgated a three-year action plan and special support policies for "one transformation with three industries", and strived to achieve full coverage of digital transformation of industrial enterprises in the province in about three years. In 2023, Henan was selected as the first batch of pilot provinces in China for digital transformation, with 186 newly cultivated smart factories and workshops, totaling 1,105, 30,000 newly added enterprises in Shangyun, totaling 220,000, and 5,000 enterprises in Shanghai completed digital transformation diagnosis. The "1+50" industrial Internet platform system accessed 8.83 million equipment products, deployed over 3,600 industrial apps and developed over 4,000 industrial models. The penetration rate of digital R&D design tools, the digitization rate of production equipment and the numerical control rate of key processes of industrial enterprises in the province increased by 7.6, 4.8 and 9.8 percentage points respectively compared with the end of the Thirteenth Five-Year Plan.

　　The fifth is to build a high-quality enterprise, yan zhen, as a power carrier to promote new industrialization. Enterprise is the basic unit of building a modern industrial system and the power carrier to promote high-quality development. Over the past year, according to the deployment of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, we have comprehensively sorted out the key enterprises in the "7+28+N" industrial cluster chain, optimized ecology, integrated resources, classified database construction and targeted cultivation, made great efforts to promote the complementary advantages of large, medium and small enterprises and enhance the value creativity of manufacturing industry. In 2023, there were 100 newly recognized Touyan enterprises, 153 provincial-level manufacturing individual champions, 52 newly cultivated national-level specialized and innovative "Little Giant" enterprises, 1,324 provincial-level specialized and innovative small and medium-sized enterprises, 6,549 innovative small and medium-sized enterprises, 2,785 newly-established industrial enterprises and 113 regulated joint-stock industrial enterprises, and Zhongmou and Fangcheng were selected as national small and medium-sized enterprise characteristic industrial clusters. By supporting enterprises to become better, stronger and bigger, the overwhelming development pattern of large enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises is accelerating.

　　The practice over the past year has proved that the planning and layout of the provincial party committee and government on promoting new industrialization fully conforms to the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee. Henan Manufacturing entered the track to fight for key nodes, moved towards the strategic turning point of kinetic energy conversion, and became the key support point of China Manufacturing. In the new year, the industrial and information front will closely focus on the strategic deployment of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, firmly grasp the strategic orientation of making the manufacturing industry a strong province, firmly grasp the strategic starting point of building a key industrial cluster chain, vigorously promote new industrialization, speed up the reconstruction of traditional industrial advantages, cultivate and grow emerging industries, and take the lead in future industries, and strive to be ahead, strive for the upper reaches and be the pioneer in the practice of Chinese modernization in Henan. thank you

　　How does finance support the protection and improvement of people’s livelihood is a matter of concern to everyone. Please tell us about the financial investment in the people’s livelihood in our province in 2023? Thank you.

　　Zhao Qingye, Party Secretary and Director of the Provincial Department of Finance

　　Thank you for your question, and thank you for your long-term concern and support for financial work. In 2023, under the strong leadership of the provincial party committee and government, the province’s financial system adhered to the strategy of "keeping the basics tight and adjusting the structure", earnestly implemented a proactive fiscal policy, promoted the overall stability of the province’s financial operation, and strongly supported the province’s economic and social development. Affected by the economic recovery in the province and the low base in 2022, the total fiscal revenue of the province in 2023 was 697.25 billion yuan, up by 12.9%, of which: the local general public budget revenue was 451.2 billion yuan, up by 6.2%; Local tax revenue was 285.51 billion yuan, up by 10.2%, and the recovery growth of fiscal revenue was generally in line with expectations, which was generally consistent with the economic operation situation. The proportion of tax revenue in general public budget revenue increased by 2.4 percentage points year-on-year, and the quality of fiscal revenue was further improved. The scale of fiscal expenditure has steadily expanded, with the province’s general public budget expenditure of 1,106.26 billion yuan, an increase of 3.9%, exceeding 1 trillion yuan for five consecutive years, and the expenditure in key areas has been effectively guaranteed.

　　Over the past year, we have conscientiously implemented the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, the State Council, the provincial party committee and the provincial government on ensuring the improvement of people’s livelihood, promoted party committees and governments at all levels to get used to "living a tight life", resolutely reduced non-rigid expenditures that are not urgently needed, spent every penny on the cutting edge, and exchanged the "tight life" of party committees and governments for the "stable life" and "good life" of ordinary people. "Financial expenditure on people’s livelihood" includes education, health, social security and employment, housing security, cultural tourism and media, agriculture, forestry, water, transportation, energy conservation and environmental protection, and urban and rural communities. In 2023, the province’s people’s livelihood expenditure was 808.15 billion yuan, which exceeded the 800 billion yuan mark for the first time, accounting for 73.1% of the general public budget expenditure, and remained stable at more than 70%, providing strong support for ensuring the improvement of people’s livelihood. I will focus on six aspects that people are most anxious about, and make a brief introduction.

　　First, focusing on "work has income", giving priority to stabilizing employment and ensuring employment. The province’s social security and employment expenditure was 193.31 billion yuan, an increase of 7.9%, supporting the development of stable employment and social security. Among them, the employment subsidy expenditure was 4.62 billion yuan, an increase of 15%, which promoted the construction of "everyone with certificates and skills in Henan" and fully supported the employment and entrepreneurship of key groups such as college graduates and migrant workers. In the whole year, unemployment insurance was distributed to stabilize posts, returning 1.03 billion yuan and reducing social insurance premiums by 5.61 billion yuan, helping enterprises to reduce their burdens and stabilize their posts. The province issued 17.14 billion yuan of new venture guarantee loans, and the total investment scale of provincial migrant workers’ return venture capital fund was 10.59 billion yuan, which led to 447,000 new jobs. The second is to focus on "learning to teach" and do our best to run a satisfactory education for the people. Education has always been given priority to development. The province’s education expenditure is 199.07 billion yuan, up 5%, accounting for 18% of the general public budget expenditure. It continues to maintain the largest financial expenditure and fully supports the development of preschool education, compulsory education, ordinary high schools, vocational education and higher education. The third is to promote the construction of healthy Henan around "getting medical treatment for diseases". The province’s health expenditure is 114.32 billion yuan, which supports the better protection of the people’s life safety and physical health in the province. In particular, it raised 58.32 billion yuan to support the raising of the financial subsidy standard for basic medical insurance for urban and rural residents from 610 yuan to 640 yuan, and the per capita financial subsidy standard for basic public health services from 84 yuan to 89 yuan, so as to further improve the health security level of urban and rural residents. The fourth is around"Help the weak" and improve the social security system. 11.97 billion yuan was raised to implement various subsidy policies for needy people, benefiting 3.063 million urban and rural low-income recipients, 483,000 destitute people, 45,000 orphans, virtually no-one to raise children and 2.121 million disabled people in the province. Raise 10.93 billion yuan to support the work of preferential treatment for retired soldiers. The fifth is to improve the old-age service system around "a sense of security for the elderly". 70.77 billion yuan will be raised to support the increase of the basic pension for retirees in enterprises, institutions and institutions by 119 yuan and 142 yuan respectively, and the minimum standard of basic pension for urban and rural residents will be gradually raised from 113 yuan to 128 yuan per person per month to ensure that pensions are paid in full and on time. Sixth, around "living and living", we will implement affordable housing projects and the renovation of dilapidated houses in rural areas. Co-ordinate 5.72 billion yuan, support the transformation of old urban communities, urban shantytowns, and grant rental subsidies, benefiting 757,500 households (sets); 490 million yuan was allocated to support 18,000 rural low-income groups and other key targets to carry out the renovation of dilapidated houses in rural areas and the earthquake-resistant renovation of rural houses.

　　In 2024, the provincial finance will continue to adhere to the principle of "managing money for the people and managing money for the people", continuously increase the financial input for people’s livelihood security, do our best, do what we can, increase the welfare, and continuously improve the level of public services and the balance of accessibility. At the same time, through strengthening management, dynamic monitoring and other means, the people’s "survival money" and "life-saving money" will be closely guarded and strictly managed, so that the development results will be more fair and beneficial. thank you

　　Since last year, both the state and Henan have emphasized the priority of restoring and expanding consumption. Excuse me, how is the operation of Henan consumer goods market? What measures has the commercial department taken to restore and expand consumption? Thank you.

　　Wang Zhenli, Party Secretary and Director of Provincial Department of Commerce

　　Thank you for your question. Consumption is an important engine of economic growth and a key link to smooth the domestic cycle. Our province conscientiously implements the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee, strengthens policy support, builds consumption carriers, enriches consumption scenarios, and promotes the recovery of the consumer goods market. The total retail sales of social consumer goods reached 2.6 trillion yuan, an increase of 6.5%. In terms of consumption patterns, retail sales and catering increased by 5.6% and 15% respectively; From the perspective of urban and rural markets, urban consumption and rural consumption increased by 6.4% and 7.2% respectively.

　　In terms of strengthening policy support, the provincial government has issued 22 consumption policies twice, and all localities have implemented measures in detail. The government, banks and enterprises have cooperated in many ways to promote the consumption of automobiles, household appliances, catering, cultural tourism and sports. For example, the consumption of automobiles above designated size increased by 13.4%, of which new energy vehicles increased by 64.2%; Household appliances, clothing, shoes and hats, and sports and entertainment products increased by 10.5%, 10.3%, and 11.6% respectively. Support the holding of the first China (Henan) time-honored brand boutique exhibition and time-honored brand carnival, and 21 Chinese time-honored brands and 271 Henan time-honored brands in the province inherit innovation and become new hot spots of national consumption.

　　In terms of building a consumer carrier, the city’s commercial system continued to improve. Zhengzhou cultivated and formed 10 large-scale business districts, and Erqi business district was shortlisted as a national demonstration smart business district. Hebi, Shangqiu, Luoyang national quarter-hour convenience life circle pilot solid progress, "circle" a beautiful new life. The turnover of 104 brand consumption clusters in the province increased by 27.3% year-on-year, and the passenger flow increased by 52.3%. Dennis, Pangdonglai, Zhenghongcheng, "Only Henan" and the ancient city of Luoyi became the punching places for fashion consumption. The construction of county-level commercial system has been accelerated, and 12 national "leading counties" and 45 provincial-level demonstration counties have played a leading role in promoting county and township consumption and agricultural products.

　　In terms of enriching consumption scenes, we will carry out activities to boost consumption in the year, hold consumption promotion activities such as Spring Festival consumption season, summer consumption season, and Yujian food, and integrate business travel style and online and offline to create immersive, experiential and interactive consumption scenes. For example, a number of local characteristic consumer brands such as Nanyang Wanmei Consumption, Kaifeng Biandi Courtesy, Pingdingshan Yuehui Eagle City and Luoyang Ancient Capital Night at 8 o’clock have been cultivated. Xuchang, Anyang, Hebi, Sanmenxia, Jiaozuo and other places have launched a "special consumption map" and a "map" index to accurately push the consumption strategy.

　　In the next step, we will conscientiously implement the spirit of the Central Economic Work Conference, implement the decision-making arrangements of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, thoroughly implement the three-year action of expanding domestic demand strategy, stabilize bulk consumption, expand new consumption, optimize the consumption environment, stimulate consumption vitality, and give full play to the basic role of consumption in economic development. thank you

　　Henan radio and TV reporter

　　Since last year, our province has been seeking truth from facts to further improve the data quality. What consideration is this based on? What is the specific situation? Thank you.

　　Li Yingwei, Party Secretary and Director of the Provincial Bureau of Statistics

　　Thank you for your question and your concern about statistical work. I want to answer your question with three persistences.

　　The first is to adhere to high-quality development. In recent years, the provincial party committee and the provincial government take the important instructions of the Supreme Leader’s General Secretary’s inspection of Henan’s important speech as the general program, the general follow and the general guidance, regard adhering to high-quality development as the last word in the new era, seize the strategic opportunity of building a new development pattern, anchor the "two guarantees", thoroughly implement the "Ten Strategies", and focus on accelerating the transformation of old and new kinetic energy, thus improving the quality and efficiency of the province’s economic development. As Secretary-General Zhu Ming just introduced, in 2023, the supply and demand sides of the province will continue to recover, emerging industries will accelerate their growth, the economic structure will be optimized and upgraded, and the results of high-quality development will be further revealed. This fully reflects the resilience, vitality and great potential of Henan’s economic development, and fully demonstrates that the series of strategic arrangements and policy measures of the provincial party Committee and the provincial government to promote high-quality development are completely correct, scientific and effective.

　　The second is to seek truth from facts. The CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core attaches great importance to statistical work, and the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has made many important speeches and instructions, profoundly expounding the important comprehensive and basic role of statistics in economic and social development. The provincial party committee and the provincial government resolutely implement the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee on statistical reform and development, firmly establish and practice a correct outlook on political achievements, and resolutely safeguard the scientific and authoritative nature of statistical work and the authenticity and accuracy of statistical data. Under the strong leadership of the provincial party Committee and the provincial government, we have made the fundamental requirement of "firmly holding the lifeline of data quality" run through all aspects of statistical work, corrected the historical data of the same period in a realistic way, resolutely made the current data real, the quality and efficiency of statistical work have been continuously improved, and the quality of source statistical data has become more reliable, which fully demonstrated the clear attitude and firm determination of the provincial party Committee and the provincial government to persist in seeking truth from facts and oppose fraud.

　　The third is to adhere to scientific rigor. Everyone’s concern about GDP is a macroeconomic indicator to measure the scale of economic operation in a country or region, and it is also the requirement of China’s accounting system to revise GDP data. When the basic data source or accounting method system of GDP accounting changes, it is necessary to revise the historical data to ensure the comparability of data between different years. Generally, the annual GDP should be accounted for twice. The first time is the preliminary accounting, which is mainly based on the progress statistics and departmental administrative records due to the limitation of data sources. The second time is the final verification, mainly based on the annual statistical data, financial final accounts data and departmental administrative records, etc., to revise the preliminary accounting results and use them as the base for the preliminary accounting next year. Often there will be some differences between the final verification data and the preliminary accounting data. We should treat these problems correctly and rationally.

　　Generally speaking, at present, our province is in the sprint period of the transformation from old to new, and the scale and speed of individual indicators fluctuate in the short term. This is a normal adjustment in the process of economic wave development and tortuous progress. This adjustment is conducive to the improvement of data quality, the stable and healthy operation of the economy, and the high-quality development of Henan. We believe that the economic prospects of Henan will be bright.

　　Thank you.

　　Pingping

　　Media friends, in the past year, Henan has made great efforts to guide the change of kinetic energy, structure and quality, and achieved an effective improvement in the quality of economic development, a reasonable increase in quantity and a strong accumulation of potential in resisting pressure and overcoming difficulties.

I also hope that media friends will continue to focus on the vivid practice of Henan’s high-quality economic development, continue to strengthen economic propaganda and guidance with strong confidence as the focus, publicize and report good achievements and good momentum, and create a good public opinion atmosphere for consolidating and strengthening the economic recovery and achieving a good start in the key year!
