Jiang Wenbo, Huang Chuanfang and Dong Weimin, the relevant leaders of the reception desk, attended.

  "Spring Festival Gala is my name, because my name contains spring." Director Chen Linchun, who has participated in more than ten Spring Festival Galas, has always had special feelings and beliefs about the Spring Festival Gala. He was the general director of 2011 cctv spring festival gala in 2008 and the general producer of the Spring Festival Gala from 2017 to 2020.

  "Spring Festival Gala" is not only a party, but also a feeling, the warmest companion on New Year’s Eve, and it is the wish of every "Spring Festival Gala" to make a new idea. Director Chen Linchun said that 2020 is an unusual year. Our country is firmly moving forward, and the people are United and bravely accepted the challenge. In this special period, every Chinese is looking forward to a reunion year, and it is still the expectation of the people of the whole country to celebrate the New Year. This mentality should be captured, and the people’s mood of expecting a better life should be grasped. This is indeed a big challenge for them, and every "Spring Festival Evening person" feels a great responsibility. Difficulties, pressures and the audience’s expectations for the Spring Festival Evening will run through the whole creative preparation process, which also encourages the Spring Festival Evening crew to produce a party that is "innocent of the times and loved by the audience" and presents unexpected surprises to the national audience.

  "Spring Festival Evening is a national stage, which should be an open, inclusive and diversified stage", and innovation and change have always been the creative topic of director Xia Yu.

He always has a sense of quality products, innovative spirit and the idea of integrating media in his program creation. During the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic, Zou Wei, as the general director Yun, produced The Most Beautiful Struggled Youth — — May 4th Special Program in 2020, the program broke through the bottleneck of "cloud production", and the presentation of remote recording and exquisite packaging triggered a hot discussion on the whole network.

  Language programs have always been the focus of the audience’s concern, and it is not easy to sing this "highlight" well. "Every year, during the Spring Festival Gala, we hope that the audience can see themselves and their lives and have a real and cordial feeling." Director Zhao Yue was the director of language programs for the Spring Festival Gala from 2016 to 2020 for five consecutive years. The cross talk in 2016, My Wife in 2017, Advice in 2018, Here comes my son in 2019, Grandma and Mama in 2020, and other works that make the audience relish, all reflect the creative idea of "close to life and deepen the content" directed by Zhao Yue.

  Since 1983, "Spring Festival Evening" has accompanied the people of China for thirty-eight years, and "watching the Spring Festival Evening" has gradually become an indispensable New Year custom for the people of the whole country. With the changes of the times, the "Spring Festival Evening" is also constantly inheriting and innovating. What will this year’s "Spring Festival Evening" look like? I look forward to the general director team to bring you bright answers.

Large pharmaceutical companies start structural adjustment: Pfizer and Roche …

workDifferentiate and correct

What is the core logic of the adjustment of multinational pharmaceutical companies? Recently, less than a month after Peng Zhenke returned to Pfizer, he announced a drastic adjustment of the organizational structure of Pfizer China, which became the focus of the industry, and all the heads of six business divisions competed for posts. Combined with the organizational changes and adjustments of Roche Pharmaceuticals, Huizhi Pharmaceuticals and other companies some time ago, the focus of the industry has shifted to issues such as purchasing with quantity and how to deal with foreign pharmaceutical companies driven by medical insurance negotiations.    

What is the core logic of the organizational structure adjustment of multinational pharmaceutical companies in the context of the changes in the pharmaceutical industry? How to treat the coping strategies of major companies? Is Pfizer’s competition for posts a big subversion of the existing employment rules in the industry? Let’s try to find the truth from the case analysis. 

01

Pfizer China replicates global architecture.

There are three main points of organizational change in China announced by Pfizer this time: First, six independent business divisions have been established, namely, hospital emergency, cancer, rare diseases, inflammation and immunity, vaccines and broad market. This setup is almost a replica of the company’s global structure in China. After the recent reorganization, Pfizer Global is divided into six business divisions: hospital emergency, oncology, rare diseases, inflammation and immunity, vaccines and internal medicine. The reason why Pfizer China has not only set up an internal medicine division is that the sales of corresponding products (mainly Ai Le Tuohe Changpei) in China are limited, which is not enough to support an independent division. The Broad Market Division has the characteristics of China, mainly covering the medical institutions in the county and even the lower market. Many multinational pharmaceutical companies, such as AstraZeneca and Sanofi, have proved the effectiveness of the strategy of Broad Market Division in practice.    

Second, set up a strategic innovation department. This is also a continuation of Pfizer’s global strategy. The core of Pfizer’s global growth strategy is "Bold Moves", which consists of five parts: release of human potential, innovative drug research and development, transition to market model, digital victory (mainly digitalization of drug research and development) and guiding policy dialogue, that is, bold action strategy. The establishment of the Strategic Innovation Department is closely related to the strategy of market model transformation. The core of this strategy is to solve the problem of patients’ ability to pay, which is also the core mission of the Strategic Innovation Department. After Pfizer divested its original research drugs and business, it focused on innovative drugs, especially drugs for tumors and rare diseases. These drugs are extremely expensive, and solving the problem of patients’ ability to pay (medical insurance, commercial insurance, charitable funding, etc.) is an important guarantee for product quality.    

Thirdly, the heads of the six business divisions that were not mentioned in the official website report but mentioned in many reports will all adopt the competitive employment system, and all employees who have served in Pfizer’s current position for more than 24 months can compete for employment without the prior approval of the superior manager. It is relatively common in domestic-funded enterprises that the heads of business departments compete for posts. Among them, the most famous case is that 7000 employees of Huawei resigned and re-competed for posts. This operation is very grounded and aims to activate the organizational potential. However, domestic pharmaceutical companies have hardly heard of any company taking this measure, and it is really admirable for Pfizer, as a multinational pharmaceutical company, to take this step.    

Previously, only two divisions of Pfizer had corresponding leaders, namely, the general manager in charge of anti-infection business and the general manager in charge of tumor and rare diseases business. After the reorganization, the anti-infection business was transferred to the hospital emergency business, and the tumor and rare diseases business was split into two business divisions: tumor and rare diseases. As a result, the position of the boss of four major business divisions is empty. Such organizational restructuring will have little impact on Pfizer’s senior management team in China. As a very senior professional manager, Peng Zhenke has successively taken charge of Bristol-Myers Squibb China, Sanofi China and Sanofi Jianzan Europe, and is very familiar with China’s culture and market competition environment, and has sufficient leadership and cultural adaptability to promote such organizational changes.    

However, this restructuring will inevitably weaken the roles of the chief operating officer and the vice president of marketing in the previous organizational structure. The chief operating officer set up by pharmaceutical companies is often trained as a presidential candidate. With the participation of Peng Zhenke and the establishment of the mechanism of six business divisions reporting directly to the president, the role of the chief operating officer has become subtle. At the same time, the positioning of the vice president of marketing in charge of cross-brand marketing strategy has also been split into various business divisions with the establishment of six business divisions, losing its independent value. The follow-up whereabouts of the two bosses are worthy of attention.  

02

Huizhi embraces digitalization.

At the same time as Pfizer’s structural reform, it is also concerned about the new organizational structure of Roche Pharmaceutical and Huizhi not long ago. Roche set up a new product pipeline strategy team in China, reporting directly to the general manager of Roche Pharmaceuticals; Huizhizhe has set up two new teams, digital therapy and health management platform, both of which report directly to President Huizhi China.    

These two adjustments are adjustments to functional departments, which are much smaller than those made by Pfizer China to directly adjust the business team. Of course, Huizhi China completed the reorganization of the business team structure at the beginning of the company’s establishment in 2020, and set up three major organizations: the hospital division, the retail division and the business division, with great moves. Huizhi is a merger of Puqiang, which was spun off from Pfizer, and Mailan, a generic drug giant. The major shareholder is still Pfizer. It can be seen from these strategic measures of organizational structure of Pfizer and Huizhi that although Pfizer has faced challenges in the pipeline of new drug research and development in recent years (in fact, all the shortcomings have been made up by the successful cooperation with BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine), the strategic height and execution ability of commercial organization operation are still beyond that of other pharmaceutical companies.    

The core positioning of Roche’s new team is company strategy formulation, strategic insight and analysis, product excellent listing, disease field integration strategy and competitive information collection and analysis. The main line of these functions is to help Roche Pharmaceuticals communicate and connect with global product research and development, and help Roche China to better and faster introduce Roche’s global new products under the market changes that heavy products such as rituximab and trastuzumab for injection are gradually listed.    

Huizhi’s initiatives are full of innovative exploration and embrace digitalization. Among all multinational pharmaceutical companies, Huizhi has the best conditions to explore digital innovation and transformation. Different from other mainstream pharmaceutical companies positioning innovative drugs, Huizhi sells generic drugs and original research drugs, and the profit margin of these products will be gradually compressed to a very small level. For enterprises, it is necessary to improve operational efficiency and user experience by means of digitalization. Huizhi has previously explored the path of cooperating with Yiduyun Internet Hospital by setting up the Internet Medical Division. After quick trial and error, it quickly adjusted its direction to more specific digital therapy and health management. For Huizhi, a multinational pharmaceutical company with talent advantages, as long as the strategic direction is unwavering, it will certainly find a pragmatic and feasible landing path.

03

Where is the core logic of transformation?

In recent years, under the impetus of national policies, quantity purchasing and medical insurance reform, the traditional business model of multinational pharmaceutical companies relying on original drugs is no longer feasible, and multinational pharmaceutical companies have also abandoned the lucky mentality that "the policy is just testing the water" at the beginning of the quantity purchasing policy. Except for a few enterprises that position original research drugs and generic drugs like Huizhi, most multinational pharmaceutical companies have clearly recognized the situation and firmly turned to the positioning of innovative drug development. Although the strategic direction is clear, the research and development of innovative drugs often takes ten years, and it takes several years for existing drugs to be introduced into the China market from all over the world. Strategic adjustment often lasts for several years, and turbulence in the adjustment process is inevitable.    

For multinational pharmaceutical companies positioning innovative drugs, the impact of business structure adjustment is not great. The organizational structure model established by selling original research drugs as innovative drugs for many years is still feasible in the New Deal era. The mainstream structure is either a business division system that manages the market and sales, or a structure that separates the market from sales and sets up a separate marketing function. Both models have their rationality. The bosses of multinational pharmaceutical companies set the corresponding organizational structure according to people, time and situation, and adopt one of the two models, or a mixture or variant of the two models.    

Then, the introduction of new products, market access, patient’s ability to pay and digital organizational capabilities have also become the most concerned organizational design areas of multinational pharmaceutical companies besides marketing and sales capabilities. Needless to say, the China product pipeline strategy team of Roche Pharmaceuticals is a typical case. Another case, for example, AstraZeneca set up a NPP(New Product Planning) team under the Ministry of Business, and some teams even gave NPP leaders the level of executive director, which shows the importance attached to new product introduction.    

Whether the product can enter the national medical insurance and how to complete the product entering the hospital as soon as possible after entering the medical insurance has become the key to the volume of new products after listing. Therefore, it has become an organizational design favored by multinational pharmaceutical companies in recent years to open up cross-team government affairs, market access and even major customer teams. This is probably the background of the times when Bian Xin, who is in charge of market access, was able to take the helm of Roche Pharmaceuticals. In the past, this channel was only open to candidates who had been vice presidents of the business department. The importance of patients’ ability to pay is related to the fact that cancer drugs and rare diseases drugs have become the main research and development directions of innovative pharmaceutical companies. In addition to national medical insurance, how to build a multi-level medical security system through charitable projects and business insurance cooperation has become the key. However, at present, the ability to pay mainly depends on national medical insurance, while charitable donations mainly rely on cooperation with large foundations and associations. Many of these abilities are placed in government affairs or access-related teams. A few multinational pharmaceutical companies also have some positions in charge of commercial insurance, mainly in government affairs or access teams. Pfizer’s separate placement in the Strategic Innovation Department is a relatively innovative move.    

Of course, digitalization is also an area that attracts more attention. Many companies, such as AstraZeneca, Sanofi, Merck, etc., have set up vice-president posts to take charge of digital related work. However, for multinational companies that locate innovative drugs, the direct help of digitalization to business is not as direct as the previous capabilities. Looking forward to the success of digital transformation in companies like Huizhi, it will provide more learning output for innovative pharmaceutical companies.

How to adjust the bank’s online bank transfer limit?

In today’s digital financial era, online banking has become an important channel for our daily financial transactions. However, sometimes we may face the limit of online bank transfer and need to adjust it to meet our own fund transaction needs. The following will give you a detailed introduction to the adjustment method of online bank transfer limit.

First of all, different banks may have different ways to adjust the online bank transfer limit, but it can usually be achieved through the following common ways:

1. Self-service adjustment of online banking: Most banks provide the function of adjusting the transfer limit on the online banking side. You can log in to personal online banking, and find the entrance to adjust the transfer limit in the relevant security settings or transfer setting options. Generally speaking, the system will guide you to carry out identity verification, such as entering SMS verification code, dynamic password, etc., to ensure that it is your own operation.

2. Mobile banking adjustment: Some banks’ mobile banking applications also support the adjustment of transfer limit. The operation process is similar to online banking. After logging in to mobile banking, you can find relevant functions in the settings or security center.

3. Go to the bank counter: If you are not familiar with the online operation, or the online channel of the bank can’t meet your adjustment needs, you can go to the bank counter with your valid ID card and bank card and apply to the staff for adjustment of the transfer limit. The staff will assist you with the relevant procedures and make adjustments for you according to your needs and bank regulations.

It should be noted that the bank sets the transfer limit for the sake of ensuring the safety of customers’ funds. When adjusting the transfer limit, you need to comprehensively consider your own capital use needs and risk tolerance. The following is a table comparison of online bank transfer limits and adjustment methods of some common banks for you:

Bank name Default transfer limit Adjustment mode Bank of China 500,000 yuan per day Online banking, mobile banking, counters Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) 500,000 yuan in a single transaction, with a daily accumulative total of 2.5 million yuan. Online banking, mobile banking, counters China Construction Bank 5 million yuan a day Online banking, mobile banking, counters agricultural bank Single 1 million yuan, daily cumulative 5 million yuan. Online banking, mobile banking, counters

In addition, different authentication methods will also affect the transfer limit. For example, using security authentication tools such as digital certificate and U shield can usually get a higher transfer limit. When adjusting the transfer limit, the bank may set the corresponding limit range for you according to the authentication method you choose.

In a word, understanding and mastering the adjustment method of online bank transfer limit can make you manage your personal funds more conveniently and efficiently. When making adjustments, be sure to ensure the security of your network environment and protect the personal information and account security.

Deng Xiaoping pays attention to and guides the work of newspapers and periodicals.

Deng Xiaoping has always believed that newspaper propaganda is an important leadership method. After he became a senior leader of the Party and the army, even though he didn’t personally create and edit newspapers and periodicals, he did not forget to pay attention to the development of newspapers and periodicals in the busy work of party affairs and military affairs, or led the creation of new newspapers and periodicals, or guided the propaganda of newspapers and periodicals, and wrote articles for newspapers and periodicals from time to time.

During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, Deng Xiaoping served as the deputy director of the Eighth Route Army Political Department and presided over the daily work of the Political Department. In the years of war and smoke, he paid great attention to the news propaganda, and proposed to strengthen the strength of reporters embedded in the army as much as possible, to "greatly strengthen the foreign propaganda work, and to reflect our real combat life to the international world, spread it to overseas Chinese and spread it to the rear area through literary and artistic works, reportage, news communication, photography and painting".

Deng Xiaoping also published articles such as Mobilizing Recruits and Political Work for Recruits in Frontline Weekly published by the General Political Department. After the publication of the Eighth Route Army Military and Political Magazine, the organ publication of the Eighth Route Army General Political Department, he also wrote important military and political writings for the magazine. In July 1940, Frontline Monthly, published by the Eighth Route Army Field Political Department, was founded, and he was one of the editorial boards of the magazine. In October 1943, Deng Xiaoping served as the acting secretary of the Northern Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, taking charge of the party and government work in the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan border area, and the press industry in this area also developed vigorously. The more important newspapers are Xinhua Daily North China Edition (and Tainan Edition, Taihang Edition, Taiyue Edition, etc.), Shanxi-Hebei-Henan Daily, Hebei-Shandong-Henan Daily, Chinese Daily, Battlefield Weekly, etc., while there are more kinds of small newspapers issued by various organs, organizations, districts and counties, totaling about forty or fifty kinds. In terms of publications, there are as many as thirty or forty kinds.

Deng Xiaoping not only pays close attention to the propaganda work of newspapers and periodicals, but also publishes Two Fronts Behind the Enemy Lines and Mourning for Ding Si in Yan ‘an’s Liberation Daily, Liberation Weekly, Eighth Route Army Military and Political Magazine, Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong and Henan’s Xinhua Daily, North China Edition, Party Life, Anti-Japanese Battlefield and Chongqing’s Xinhua Daily and People Weekly.

In 1947, when he led the army to the Dabie Mountains, the living conditions of the troops were extremely difficult. Deng Xiaoping pointed out that the more difficult it was, the more we could not abandon the propaganda work. He believes that propaganda work is the biggest political work at present, an indispensable condition for uniting the majority of the people around our party and army, and a major means of arming the people’s minds. "Extensive use of all propaganda weapons (propaganda by propaganda teams, theatrical troupes, army commanders, government announcements, conferences, symposiums, lectures, art exhibitions, etc.) to publicize our ideas and policies and refute the rumors and deception of the enemy can occupy the ideological position and stabilize.

In the decisive stage of the War of Liberation, Deng Xiaoping and Liu Bocheng led their troops south, courageously and invincible, and successively liberated Nanjing, Shanghai and other big cities, and quickly published Nanjing Xinhua Daily and Shanghai Liberation Daily.

After the founding of New China, Deng Xiaoping directly led and planned the publication of party newspapers in Southwest China, especially in Sichuan Province. On November 23rd, 1949, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China Southwest Bureau was established, and Deng Xiaoping became the first secretary. He handed the headline of Xinhua Daily, inscribed by President Mao Zedong, to the personnel who organized the newspaper of Southwest Bureau, and instructed them to March to Chongqing with the army. On November 30th, Chongqing was liberated. On December 10th, Southwest Xinhua Daily met its readers. At the end of December, in order to stabilize prices, he instructed Xinhua Daily to publish the discount units in Chongqing every day, so that the broad masses could know the quotations of oil, salt and rice. He not only gave instructions to the work of the newspaper many times, but also personally reviewed and revised the important speeches of the newspaper, and also reviewed and revised the manuscripts of many journalists. When reading the press release of the conference, he often crossed out his speech and said, "The news should be shorter."

On May 16, 1950, in the report of the Southwest News Work Conference, Deng Xiaoping elaborated on the importance, nature and tasks of news editing and publishing, and how to run newspapers well. This is his famous speech on news publishing. He pointed out: "publishing newspapers, broadcasting, publications and pamphlets, while closely integrating with practice and central tasks, is more effective, broader and more effective than other methods in implementing the leadership intention." He believes that newspaper propaganda has a special effect because of its wide range of radiation. "Holding a pen is the main method of leadership. Leading comrades should learn to hold a pen. Meeting is a kind of leadership method and necessary, but there are always a few people attending the meeting. Even if a big report is made, only a few hundred people will listen. Individual conversation is also a kind of leadership method, but it can only be’ individual’. The most extensive way to achieve leadership is to use a pen. Writing with a pen will spread widely, and after writing, the thoughts will be refined and more thorough. " In view of the fact that some leaders don’t attach importance to news work, Deng Xiaoping pointed out that the key to running a newspaper well lies in leaders’ attention: "There are three conditions for running a newspaper well, namely, combining reality, connecting with the masses, criticism and self-criticism. Without the leadership, these three articles will not work well, and newspapers will have no power and will easily become’ what is heard must be recorded’. " He encouraged, "Xinhua Daily has made progress recently." Emphasize that "the premise of running a newspaper well lies in leadership", and advocate leading comrades to write articles for newspapers in person and practice them. On October 1 of the same year,He published a short article "The Founding of the People’s Republic of China in Southwest China" in Xinhua Daily, and reviewed and summarized his work in the past year.

In 1953, Deng Xiaoping was transferred to the central government and became one of the main members of the first generation of the party’s leading collective. While busy, he reads a lot of newspapers every day and participates in reviewing important editorials of People’s Daily. In the sixties and seventies, he was overthrown twice and rose twice. Reading newspapers became one of his main sources of information.

After Deng Xiaoping’s third comeback in 1977, he became the core of the second generation of leading collective of the CPC Central Committee. He has a closer relationship with the newspaper. On May 11th, 1977, Guangming Daily published a famous article "Practice is the only criterion for testing truth". This epoch-making article has the clear support of Deng Xiaoping. The article wrote: "The criterion for testing truth can only be social practice." "The unity of theory and practice is one of the most basic principles of Marxism." Deng Xiaoping criticized the viewpoint of "two whatevers" for many times, and supported the discussion on the standard of truth in the newspaper … One stone stirred up a thousand waves. With the help of this immortal work in the influential and authoritative Central Party newspaper, Deng Xiaoping set off a wave of theory and practice of "emancipating the mind and seeking truth from facts", and the great liberation of thought gave birth to great changes in reform and opening up.

Later, Deng Xiaoping repeatedly emphasized that "our party’s newspapers and periodicals should become the ideological center of national stability and unity" and demanded that "party newspapers and periodicals must unconditionally publicize the party’s ideas". (Meng Hong)

China’s Retail Shuffle: Supergiants lost a total of 4.9 billion a year. Why? Behind the end of retail myth

Gaoxin Retail, the parent company of this well-known retail enterprise, recently released the financial year 2024 performance report, which shows that the company is facing enormous challenges. In the fiscal year ending March 31, although the revenue reached 72.567 billion yuan, it decreased by 13.3% year-on-year. What is more striking is that the net profit returned to the mother recorded a huge loss of 1.668 billion yuan. RT Mart, as a star brand of Gaoxin Retail, had a brilliant retail legend in its development. Since landing in China in 1997, it took only 12 years to reach the peak of the retail industry in mainland China, and won wide acclaim from consumers with the record of not closing a store for 19 consecutive years. However, times have changed, and Gaoxin Retail pointed out in the performance warning that factors such as store losses, asset impairment and goodwill impairment, together with changes in customer consumption habits, have led to the current predicament. According to statistics, since the beginning of 2023, at least 13 RT Mart stores have closed for various reasons.

In the face of difficulties, Gaoxin retail executives did not flinch. Chairman Huang Mingduan stressed that the company’s primary task is to increase revenue and reduce costs, turn losses into profits, adhere to the essence of retail, and return to the original intention of creating value for customers. The joining of the new executive director and CEO, Shen Hui, indicates that the company is actively adjusting its strategy and rebuilding market confidence, with the goal of making RT Mart regain its growth momentum.

Looking back, since it was acquired by Alibaba in 2017, the performance of Gaoxin Retail has fluctuated significantly, especially in the context of the impact of e-commerce and the rapid evolution of retail formats, the traditional hypermarket model in RT Mart has encountered severe challenges. Although Alibaba helped its online transformation, the effect did not meet expectations, which aggravated the financial pressure. At present, RT Mart is seeking a breakthrough in transformation through innovation of business format, renovation of stores and strengthening of online services.

The whole retail industry is also actively exploring ways to change, including developing discount formats, improving shopping experience, deepening community management and accelerating digital transformation to cope with the cold winter of the market. Yonghui Supermarket, Box Horse Fresh Life, CR Vanguard and other enterprises have adopted different strategies to show the self-help and innovation of industry giants.

Although the road ahead is still full of challenges, the resilience and innovative spirit of retail enterprises indicates that the industry is expected to usher in a turning point in constant adaptation and change.

Castro in Marquez’s eyes: What he wants to do most is to "hide in the corner"

Fidel Castro (left) and Garcia Marquez

On April 17th, 2014, Nobel Prize in Literature Prize winner and Colombian writer Garcí a Má rquez passed away. On November 25, 2016, Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro passed away. One was a great writer in the 20th century, and the other was a great revolutionary in the 20th century. Their friendship lasted for a lifetime.

The friendship between Castro and Marquez can be traced back to 1948. At that time, Marquez was studying at the University of Bogota, and Castro went to attend international conferences as a representative of Cuban students. The riots broke out in Colombia because of the assassination of the left-wing presidential candidate. Although Marquez and Castro only passed by in the parade, they all regarded this historical moment as the basis of friendship.

The close relationship between Marquez and Castro has caused dissatisfaction among many writers and friends, but Marquez did not agree. He once said: "It is far more important for Latin America to maintain my relationship with Castro than to break with him."

In 2002, Castro wrote an article in Colombia’s Change magazine, saying that he hoped to be a writer like Marquez in the afterlife. Marquez also talked about the Castro he knew on many occasions.

Fidel Castro and Garcia Marquez

Colombian Times once published an article by Garcí a Má rquez entitled Fidel I Know:

He has extraordinary ability to control language and writing, attractive personality charm, and generate inspiration at any time is his unique style. Reading all kinds of books reflects that he has a wide range of interests. In order to warn people that smoking is harmful to health, he set an example and gave up his hobby for many years. He likes to make recipes with a scientific attitude. He keeps exercising and swimming for hours every day to keep in good health. He is patient, disciplined and imaginative. He said that learning to rest is as important as learning to work.

He was tired of talking, but took it as a rest. He is good at writing and likes writing. The greatest thrill of his life is adventure. The impromptu forum seems to be his best place to play. His opening voice is always very small, and the direction he faces is always uncertain, but he can use the flashing lights to win his attention bit by bit until he catches the audience with a firm and powerful voice. He has an irresistible and overwhelming manner. He is an absolute anti-dogmatist.

It is his unique political ability to foresee the development of a thing and its consequences. However, this rare ability of others is not expressed by imagination, but the result of his mature reason and decisive judgment. His best assistant is his own memory, and his extraordinary memory has been fully demonstrated in his wonderful speeches and even private conversations.

He is a frugal man, a man with greedy dreams and an old-fashioned formal education. He is cautious in his words and decisive in his actions, and is good at catching any novel ideas. I think this is the Fidel I know. 

He dreamed that Cuban scientists could finally find anti-cancer drugs. He created a foreign policy with world power in a country far smaller than his biggest enemy. He firmly believes that the greatest success of mankind is to form a good consensus, and only morality can change the world and push the wheel of history forward, not matter.

Fidel Castro and Garcia Marquez

Marquez once published an article in the Cuban newspaper Granma, talking about Castro he knew:

He (Castro) is a man with extraordinary patience, superior opinions and a passion for fantasy, and at the same time he pursues iron discipline. His vision is global. He has attractive power. He always gets to the bottom of problems. He can always inspire generate at any time. He reads books extensively, which reflects his taste in life. In order to quit smoking, he never touched tobacco again. Even when cooking, he strictly follows the scientific spirit. In order to keep in good health, he keeps exercising for several hours every day and often goes swimming in the water. Invincible patience, iron discipline and superman’s imagination let him swim in a world invisible to the naked eye.

Castro’s attitude towards failure (even small things in daily life) seems to follow this logic: he will never admit failure and will never stop until he wins.

He has a super memory, and he is also very good at using it (even to the point of abuse). Whether in public speech or private conversation, he shows his super argument ability, and his quick and accurate response is unbelievable. He greedily obtained information and chewed and digested it. Even during breakfast, he can watch at least 200 pages of news. He will find the slightest contradiction in other people’s casual wording. He is a greedy reader. He is willing to read any newspaper at any time.

In 1960, Marquez, Castro and ernesto guevara.

He never refuses to answer any questions, no matter how provocative, and he never loses patience. Someone tried to hide some facts in order not to worry him too much, but in fact he couldn’t hide them. He once said to an official who tried to do this: "You are hiding the truth from me in order to make me worry less, but once I find out, I will die because they accumulate too much to handle and face." The most serious thing is to lie to cover up the shortcomings, because behind the success of the revolution in politics, science, sports and culture, there is a huge bureaucratic force, which always affects people’s daily life, especially the happiness of the domestic people.

I know that if he lives in a different way, then his life will be more time. When I saw him under heavy pressure for all kinds of things that seemed to have nothing to do with him, I asked him what he wanted to do most in this world. He immediately replied, "hide in the corner." (Oriental Morning Post, April 18, 2014)

The core essence of "Jinjiang Experience" is that "promising the government" and "effective market" should work in the same direction, so that private enterprises can concentrate on their industries and the private economy can achieve high-quality development.
