            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On 8 May, the Reference News Network reported on an article entitled Who will launch the next ground offensive in Ukraine, published on the Indian Sunday News site, S. B. Astana, a former Indian Army officer. The full text is summarized as follows:</p><p>The recent war in Ukraine witnessed more confrontational attacks on missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles and artillery, with few large-scale ground attacks. The Russian cruise missile attacks and the Ukrainian no-manned aerial attacks on the Creami oil bank are part of this posture. Both Russia and the United States-led NATO, which fought proxy through Ukraine, were feeling the fatigue of war, but did not make negotiations a sufficiently attractive option.</p><p>The mixed war of active and direct fire between Russia and the Russian Federation is striking a deadlock with sporadic confrontations, while the United States-led NATO launched an offensive in an undeclared, unactivated and uncontacted war against Russia, primarily in the economic, information, diplomatic and political fields. While NATO is working to maintain unity, there are signs of friction within the organization, coupled with efforts to mitigate the impact of the information leaks in the Pentagon Building, which have lost some of the momentum and exposed some of the obvious weaknesses in the Western propaganda campaign against Ukraine in the spring. In this context, it remains to be seen which party may launch the next large-scale ground offensive.</p><p>Certain serious realities determine the maximum reluctance of both sides to this war. First, Russia has a huge nuclear arsenal and a high-sound missile, and it will not be completely defeated if no large weapon is used. Secondly, the United States will not take the risk of Washington, D.C., being destroyed in New York to save President Zerrougui. Thirdly, Russia cannot destroy a NATO-supported Ukraine if there is no serious breakdown within the country. Fourthly, Europe will have to follow United States orders. Fifthly, without full NATO engagement, Ukraine cannot recover its entire loss of land, while NATO’s full engagement implies the risk of the third world war and the end of the nuclear day. Therefore, war is likely to take place within these maximum limits.</p><p>NATO claimed to have met 98 per cent of Ukraine’s demand for counter-attacks by providing 1550 armoured vehicles and 230 tanks, training and equipping more than nine new Ukrainian armoured brigades. NATO allies also provide aircraft, anti-aircraft weapons and systems and ammunition. Although arms banks have been upgraded, professionals know that hardware is not necessarily the decisive force for winning war.</p><p>Russia is currently facing difficulties due to economic costs and the burden of casualties. Russia’s residual operational capacity is limited and it is not possible to make significant progress in the ground offensive. It has adopted a confrontational offensive programme to minimize human and material losses. It takes time to build combat power and regain its right of initiative.</p><p>Russia could choose the time-frame for launching attacks and counter-attacks, but Ukraine was under pressure to launch an already overstretched spring offensive. NATO would like to see Zerrougui meet its commitments.</p>]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The year 2021 marks a ten-year and a qualitative year for the improvement of basic education in the hills. The high-yielding districts have seized great opportunities to build educational capitals, to build “three classrooms”, to capture “three types of education”, to develop education at all levels, and to create a popularly satisfactory education for the production of a new picture.</p><p>Quality and balanced development of basic education</p><p>Implementation of the fundamental mandate of the Creator. Seven demonstration schools for art education at the municipal level, two special schools for football, four schools for traditional sports projects and one for science and technology. In 2021, a reform of high school enrolment began, with the introduction of art students in three high-yielding areas; 18 new and expanded schools were replaced with an increase of 12240 degrees; and 12 rural primary and secondary schools implemented the New Quality School Growth Programme, which resulted in a marked improvement in school attendance and an increasing quality of schooling.</p><p>High-quality inclusive development in pre-school education</p><p>In 2021, one new public park was established, with 2 GSPs, 55 per cent public parks and 96 per cent GSP kindergartens. The second kindergarten in the high-majority district has been successfully re-examined through provincial model kindergartens, the second kindergarten in the town of Kyung-bun succeeded in establishing the second and third-level kindergartens in the city of West An. There are currently 8 provincial model kindergartens in my district, 18 municipal kindergartens, 23 municipal secondary kindergartens, 33 municipal level kindergartens and 82 per cent high-quality resource coverage.</p><p>High-quality career development</p><p>The Centre is the first public education centre in the city of West Ann, with a provincial high-level professional high. In 2021, the “two-way” review of the secondary vocational school in Nassir Province was successfully completed and the selection competition for the skills of secondary vocational schools throughout the province was successfully conducted. The new campus of the School of Technology for Transport in West Java is a home-grown maternity park that completes the ceremonies and is about to start construction.</p><p>Special education for development</p><p>The establishment of a pre-school rehabilitation programme, the establishment of a special education resource centre for the hills, the allocation of six resource classrooms in schools such as Gulf Secondary School and the South Korea Primary School, and the full coverage of special education at the nine-year compulsory education phase, have resulted in a special high-yielding education model that is “the backbone of special schools, the main subject of school attendance and the backing of doors”.</p><p>Quality sharing of community education</p><p>There are currently one university in old age, one in community education, one in out-of-school activities for adolescents, seven in community education schools, 110 in community education, seven in the juvenile uterus, and 12 in the development of regional specialities. The overall life-long learning climate is becoming more intense and productive, and it was rated as a “community education pilot zone in the Province of Guinea-Bissau” in 2020.</p>]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In Jinan, I spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy about sofas. Before they are useless, they need to change sponges. Consumers: the quality is not worthy of the name</p><p>Sina Shandong March 16:04</p><p>Recently, Ms. Zhang, a citizen of Jinan, complained to reporters through a black cat complaint that there was a quality problem with the about brand three seat sofa she spent 10000 yuan to buy in Jinan home, and the sofa still had obvious defects after exchange. Ms. Zhang’s coordination has not been resolved for nearly three months. The reporter contacted the left and right sofa brand manufacturers, which said they were urging dealers and consumers to solve it as soon as possible.</p><p>According to Ms. Zhang, on October 7, 2021, she ordered a conventional three person sofa of left and right brands in a store of Jinan home. After receiving the sofa on December 6, she and her family found that the leather part of the sofa was worn in many places, so they communicated with the merchant to return the sofa, and then communicated with the merchant to return the sofa. However, the merchant refused to return the sofa because it was a customized product, but promised to replace it with a new sofa.</p><p>“The sofa we bought is not customized, and it is not stated in the contract that it is a customized product.” Ms. Zhang said that the merchant agreed to replace it with a new sofa, so she reluctantly agreed.</p><p>But to her surprise, the sofa after replacement was received on January 6, and this sofa also had defects. “The sofa has obviously used dust, and the leather behind the backrest also has traces of repair. It’s not a new sofa at all.” Therefore, she asked the merchant to return the goods again, but the merchant took a tough attitude and did not accept the return.</p><p>In desperation, Ms. Zhang complained to the mayor’s hotline 12345. The feedback given to her by the 12345 mayor’s hotline is that the merchant does not accept the return. The merchant asks the consumer to prove that the product is not a new sofa before giving the return. Ms. Zhang consulted the relevant appraisal department, which told her that she could not issue such a certificate. “The staff of the appraisal department told me that the defects of this product are visible to the naked eye, and there is no corresponding appraisal standard for this certificate.”</p><p>“It’s hard for them to put forward such identification requirements and make it clear!” Ms. Zhang said helplessly.</p><p>Picture provided by the interviewee</p><p>In this regard, the reporter contacted the customer service of the left and right sofa merchants and reflected Ms. Zhang’s experience to them. After that, the relevant staff of the left and right brands contacted the reporters. According to the staff of the left and right sofa, the dealers have been urged to contact consumers and solve the problems encountered by consumers as soon as possible.</p><p>Recently, the reporter received feedback from Ms. Zhang. Ms. Zhang said that the customer service of stores and manufacturers have contacted her these days. “Yesterday I went to the merchant to talk about it. The merchant said that it was to replace the opened sponge of the backrest with a whole piece, replace the leather with repair marks on the backrest with a new one, and replace the seat cushion splicing sponge.”</p><p>Ms. Zhang said: “I was originally buying a new product, so I have to replace the parts before they are useless. In addition, I have changed it once, and there are some problems. Will there be any problems when I repair it? I have no confidence in the business. What if there are more problems?”</p>]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Abstract: domestic high-end brands; There are more than 90 stores abroad; The first Chinese brand to join hands with Chinese local designers to appear in Milan design week; Their latest brand image blockbuster won an award at the London Chinese Film Festival; They are very low-key and mysterious… “Speaking of camerich, the first reaction of industry peers and media reporters is mostly like this</p><p>Tiger David is a very loud title in the household circle. Obviously, this is not his real name. As the helmsman of Ruichi furniture in Tianjin, when you first met tiger David, you will know that he is called President song. Yes, it is president Song, who has operated Ruichi furniture in Tianjin for 11 years. Recently, President song did an unparalleled job, inviting hundreds of designers in the home circle to watch the hottest “Dahe sing” at the moment. A music documentary, which has been produced for N years, deeply attracted president song. Forthright, he immediately decided to charter a venue and invite friends in the circle to watch this phenomenal film with persistence and feelings of doing one thing.</p><p>Related reading: in Tianjin, a guy named tiger set up a private viewing venue for “singing of the river”</p><p>Tiger David: in my mind, it’s not a business anymore. It’s a career. For example, when I came to Tianjin from Guangzhou 11 years ago, I felt that the quality of this product was very good and the materials were also very good, so I decided to make Ruichi brand. After 11 years of operation, I always have a grateful heart. Ruichi has its magic power and spiritual concept. Over the years, many old customers, including recommended neighbors, relatives and friends, have come back to buy again, which is also the recognition of our products and our services. At the same time, I also have a lot of praise for our products, because I feel very satisfied with these praise, so I feel more grateful, and then do our best service, To repay everyone.</p><p>Tiger David: it should reach 8.8 points.</p><p>Tiger David: Yes, it’s about the whole business process. Ruichi brand leads us to keep moving forward. Maybe more than ten years ago, Ruichi was good, but only some of its products were good. However, with the continuous change of corporate culture, from the quality of employees to factories, to our technology, to the different progress of materials we use, such progress makes us quickly surpass other brands and factories. This is something we feel very proud of, because it has been leading the trend. Therefore, Ritz is not only good at some products, but also has risen to the height of good brand. Ruichi now exports to more than 100 countries and has a good reputation in the world. Moreover, Ruichi is a plus product. With a lot of furniture delivered to customers’ homes, the satisfaction may gradually decline due to the installation and the quality at that time, and the recognition of customers may be reduced. After Ricci arrived at the customer’s home, it made the customer very happy through all aspects of feedback. This is extra points for all aspects, and the customer will like it very much. All these changes need to introduce these advantages and selling points to consumers through a large number of professional and knowledgeable people such as designers. Our efforts can be seen by consumers in the market, which is inseparable from the spread of these circles, so his share is very high.</p><p>Tiger David: Yes, in addition to its excellent advantages, Ruichi’s brand has been making great efforts in the trend. From the first Chinese brand that appeared in Milan design week with Chinese local designers in the early years to the award of our promotional film in London Chinese Film Festival, Ruichi has always paid the same attention to its own brand temperament and fashion flu.</p><p>Tiger David: I agree with you. The current home market is a market environment of survival of the fittest. Whether it is design teachers or furniture products, including building materials products, only by constantly doing what should be, constantly digging channels, doing their own services, doing their own quality, and adhering to the next will not be bad. Therefore, including the design teacher, I also have some suggestions. Now the society emphasizes individuality. We can’t say the style as in the past. It is very fixed, conservative and stereotyped. When we arrive at the customer’s home, we will also have aesthetic fatigue and won’t adapt to the customer’s personality. Now we need personalized things, such as the customer’s occupation, age and family members. What kind of life functionality is needed, such as the customer’s pursuit of beauty. We should integrate these elements to communicate the customer’s needs and realize the needs in order to obtain the customer’s recognition. Good works are bound to get a good reputation and spread better and better. This also applies to Ruichi.</p><p>You can call him tiger, David or president song. He prefers others to call him tiger, which is obviously pro, sincere and shows his true nature. Ruichi has such magic power that makes the tiger fall in love and stick to this brand for 11 years. In the future, in any case, the tiger has earned a beautiful present for itself and Ruichi. Can it be worse in the future? We look forward to it together.</p>]]></content:encoded>
