Jianghuai Ruifeng M3 CNG enriches the Gemini lineup and becomes a new choice to reduce costs and increase efficiency.

In the gas car market, consumers’ demand for efficient, environmentally friendly and economical travel is growing day by day. Jianghuai Ruifeng has an insight into the market trend, and has carefully built two gas vehicles, Ruifeng M3 CNG and Ruifeng M4 CNG. With excellent performance, stable quality and high fuel economy, these two models have become the best in the gas vehicle market.

Generally speaking, MPV users will choose to modify CNG vehicles in order to save costs. However, if there are mistakes or improper operations in the modification and use process, there will be certain security risks. Therefore, when considering changing automobile oil to gas, it is necessary to select professional institutions or manufacturers with experience, technical strength and good reputation to modify them, and use and maintain them in strict accordance with relevant safety regulations and operating requirements. Considering this important demand, JAC Ruifeng, as an MPV expert, upgraded the Ruifeng M3 CNG model from the original factory, and cooperated with Ruifeng M4 CNG model to create a "CNG MPV Gemini" combination to give entrepreneurs a more reliable choice of CNG models.

As an original CNG vehicle, Ruifeng M3 CNG has abundant power. The new car is equipped with a 1.8L dual-fuel special engine, which not only fully meets the multi-functional purposes of users to carry goods and pick up people, but also has a comprehensive cruising range of 450 kilometers and a maximum speed of 140km/h, which can better balance power and economy. Ruifeng M3 CNG not only has no discount on power, but also saves more on car cost compared with ordinary fuel vehicles. It is the best choice for entrepreneurs to reduce costs and increase efficiency. Specifically, if only natural gas is used, the energy consumption of Ruifeng M3 CNG is 8.5 m/100 km, and the gas consumption per kilometer is only 0.28 yuan, which is only one-third of the MPV cost of gasoline at the same level. If you save it, you will earn it!

Of course, the most basic large space of an MPV is an important advantage to increase income, and Ruifeng M3 CNG will naturally not ignore it. The dimensions of the new car are 5145mm*1765mm*1900mm, the wheelbase is as long as 3110mm, the luggage volume is as high as 1750L, and users can choose from 7/8/9 seats. At the same time, it also has a flexible seat combination. The middle row can be equipped with independent seats, three rows can be changed to hang on the side, and nine rows can support independent adjustment. No matter whether it is manned or loaded, it is a good hand, and the space practicality and flexibility are greatly improved.

Under the background of the continuous promotion of the dual-carbon policy, the combination of "CNG MPV Gemini" composed of Ruifeng M4 CNG and Ruifeng M3 CNG perfectly combines the remarkable advantages of CNG products, which is not only more environmentally friendly, but also lower in cost, and is a high-quality choice for reducing costs and increasing efficiency in entrepreneurial scenarios.

International observation: Chinese modernization is China’s and the world’s.

  In midsummer, the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) was successfully held, which made strategic arrangements for further deepening reform and promoting Chinese modernization, and once again conveyed to the world the strong voice of China unswervingly promoting high-quality development and high-level opening up, which aroused great concern from the international community. International public opinion generally believes that the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee is of far-reaching significance to China and the world. It is expected that Chinese modernization and high-level opening-up will bring more opportunities to the development of all countries in the world. It is no accident that the wind is surging, and there is a previous chapter in the moon. This expectation is not without reason. In recent years, Chinese-style modernization has made a series of important contributions to promoting the development of world modernization in its own process, and will bring more development opportunities.

  Chinese modernization provides new ideas for countries all over the world to explore the road of modernization. Chinese-style modernization insists on independence and self-reliance, and has made great achievements, successfully breaking the myth of "modernization equals westernization", and solving the dilemma of choosing "independence or vassal", "destiny and common" or "decoupling and breaking the chain", which provides useful reference for all countries in the world, especially developing countries, to explore their own modernization roads. On recent international occasions, such as the commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the publication of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, the second high-level meeting of the Global Action Forum for Shared Development, and the 12th World Peace Forum, representatives of countries in the "Global South" expressed their urgent desire to cooperate with China and learn from China.

  Chinese-style modernization provides new kinetic energy for global economic prosperity and development. According to the World Bank report, from 2013 to 2021, the average contribution rate of China to world economic growth was as high as 38.6%, exceeding the sum of the contribution rates of the Group of Seven, and it was the first driving force for world economic growth. The "Belt and Road Initiative" promoted the joint construction of national infrastructure interconnection, which reduced the global trade cost by 1.8%. Germany’s Statista data platform predicts that by 2030, the Belt and Road Initiative will increase global GDP by 0.7%, and by 2050, it will increase global GDP by 2.6%. China has provided development assistance to more than 160 countries, directly invested more than US$ 130 billion in more than 150 countries, and promoted a large number of infrastructure and livelihood projects. China establishes China — South-South multilateral cooperation platforms such as the ASEAN Cooperation Mechanism, the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation, the China-Latin America Forum and the China-Arab Forum have created a "global development and South-South cooperation fund" with a total amount of US$ 4 billion, and implemented more than 130 projects for nearly 60 countries, covering poverty reduction, food security, anti-epidemic and climate change, injecting new momentum into global common development.

  Chinese modernization has made new contributions to safeguarding world peace and development. China adheres to the path of peaceful development and writes it into the Constitution. China is the permanent member of the United Nations Security Council with the largest number of peacekeepers, and the only country among the five nuclear powers that has promised not to be the first to use nuclear weapons. On the issue of peace and security, China is a big country with the best record in the world. China made great efforts to explore solutions to hot issues with China characteristics, successfully promoted the reconciliation between Shay and, promoted intra-Palestinian reconciliation, and persuaded peace and promoted talks on the Ukrainian crisis. Facts have proved that China’s modernization is the growth of peaceful forces and has played an important role in safeguarding world peace and development.

  At present, the great changes in the world that have never happened in a century have accelerated their evolution, local conflicts and turmoil have occurred frequently, global problems have intensified, and various international "black swan" and "grey rhinoceros" incidents have occurred frequently. Countries all over the world, especially the "global south", are more eager for opportunities, looking forward to cooperation and seeking development. The broad prospect of Chinese modernization just fits this common demand and brings multiple opportunities:

  Great market opportunities. More than 1.4 billion people in China have stepped into modernization as a whole, which means that a huge market will be formed, which exceeds the total size of the existing developed countries. According to estimates, every 1% increase in the urbanization rate in China can boost about $140 billion in new investment and $28 billion in new consumption. Every 1 percentage point increase in the proportion of middle-income groups will increase consumer spending by more than 150 billion US dollars every year. With the construction of a unified national market, the promotion of new urbanization and the improvement of regional coordinated development strategy in China, the super-large-scale market will be continuously upgraded and expanded, and the broader domestic demand potential will be released.

  More growth opportunities. First, improve the scale and quality of import and export trade. In the first half of this year, the total value of China’s import and export trade was 21.17 trillion yuan, a record high in the same period, achieving a steady growth of 6.1%. China’s imports of integrated circuits increased by 14.1%, reflecting the rapid development of China’s advanced manufacturing industry. In the first half of the year, China’s import and export trade with countries that jointly built the Belt and Road increased by 7.2%. The Chairman of the Supreme Leader announced that from now until 2030, the cumulative import volume of China from developing countries is expected to exceed 8 trillion US dollars. The second is to meet the new development needs of southern countries. For example, in 2023, China’s exports of new energy vehicles, lithium batteries and photovoltaic products increased by nearly 30%, and all localities made full use of their comparative advantages according to local conditions and aimed at market segments, which better met the new demands of ASEAN, Central Asia and other regions. The third is to provide the world with a transformation plan. As an important symbol of new quality productivity, 5G technology has spawned new scenarios and new formats, and also promoted industrial transformation and upgrading in application countries and regions. The "China Program" of digital transformation is helping small and medium-sized enterprises in developing countries to reduce costs, improve efficiency and increase income.

  Broader cooperation opportunities. The Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) emphasized that "opening up is a distinctive symbol of Chinese modernization", and China will continue to expand its independent opening up, expanding its commodity market, service market, capital market and labor market. Further relax market access and implement the requirement of "clearing" foreign investment access restrictions in the manufacturing sector. China has achieved full visa-free access with 24 countries, unilaterally granted visa-free access to 16 countries, and will further expand its unilateral opening to the least developed countries. China will continue to expand institutional opening, create a transparent, stable and predictable institutional environment, and form a more market-oriented, rule-of-law and international business environment, which will bring broad opportunities for cooperation between more and more countries.

  The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out, "China is not pursuing an independent modernization. It is willing to work with other countries to realize a world modernization of peaceful development, mutually beneficial cooperation and common prosperity and promote the building of a community of human destiny." Today, China is the China of the world, and reform and opening up is a great historical process for China to join hands with the world for common development and progress. On the new journey of reform and opening-up, Chinese-style modernization will inject more stability and certainty into the turbulent world with higher-quality development and higher-level opening-up, and make continuous contributions to China’s wisdom, China’s plan and China’s strength in promoting the process of world modernization and building a community of human destiny.

        A dialogue to discuss painting from the perspective of image, a forum on painting ontology. Curator Dai Zhuoqun will tell his observation and speculation on current painting problems based on two topics: first, respond to the relationship between current painting practice and China painting tradition through images; As a self-sufficient painting system that has lasted for thousands of years, the history of ancient painting in China has neither realistic tradition nor abstract tradition: the spirit is written by form and the Tao is carried by things, all of which are based on concreteness and image, and the ontology of painting has never been shaken by external factors. The second question to be discussed is the great changes that painting has faced in the past 100 years, especially the impact of the double impact of western learning and becoming a tool on today’s painting. The reason why the two issues are discussed alternately is to break the artificial barrier between the so-called traditional painting and the current painting, and take the image as the entry point to face the painting itself.

Shanghai-The image of China produced by British cultural industry in the early Victorian era.

Time:January 24th (Saturday) 15:00-17:00

Location:Shanghai Museum of Contemporary Art, No.200 Huayuangang Road, Huangpu District

Guest:Li Tiangang (Professor, Department of Religious Studies, Fudan University) and Wu Liang (critic)

        The Victorian Age (1837-1901) was the most glorious period of the British Empire. Even in the heyday of economy, military, politics and culture, Britain and Europe did not despise China culture, which was shown in the British copperplate prints on the theme of China in the 19th century. In the lecture, two scholars and artists who are familiar with the history of cultural exchange between China and the West analyze this era one by one, combining with many works in the published Impression of the City of the Qing Empire: British Copper Prints in the 19th Century. They will discuss from different aspects that the production of a nation’s culture for another nation actually relies on the media (prints in newspapers, magazines and books) to communicate through artistic and cultural means. By analyzing the media industry in London, England, we can know that copper engraving, as a part of commercial culture, is not only a new media in the 19th century, but also a Victorian cultural communication. In the 21st century, it has become a classic art of mankind and a museum collection.

Guest:Yinghao Huang (documentary director), Zhang Wei (documentary director), Bing Wang (documentary director), Jin Ying (documentary director), etc.

        With the change of time, many traditional cuisines are gradually fading out of our sight. The gourmet movie Taste China tells the story of the craftsman behind the cuisine through the lens for the first time. Some of them insist on using the ancient method of well salt, some concentrate on making tofu coats soaked in spring water in their hometown, and some even make the most elastic Chaozhou beef balls by constantly beating them by hand. These challenges to the taste of China on the tip of the tongue stem from craftsmen’s persistence in traditional cooking and production techniques.

Yang Honghai said that Kia brand will stick to the concept of "in China, for China" and continue to increase R&D investment. At present, Kia has completed the landing of two new cars in the China market, and will continue to expand the charging network, channels and service content in the future.

Yang Honghaitu/Enterprise official website

Kia will not withdraw from the China market and will continue to increase investment in research and development.

Beijing News Shell Finance:Will KIA continue to invest in the China market? What localization business has the enterprise promoted for the China market?

Yang Honghai:First of all, Kia will never withdraw from the China market. Kia has always attached great importance to the China market and will pay more attention to it in the future. Following the EV Day in March, Song Husheng, global CEO of Kia, came to China for investigation again today, and stressed that success in China market is the key to Kia’s global success.

In order to better understand the China market and better serve China consumers, we have set up China Institute of Technology, China Forward Digital R&D Center and China Big Data Center in China. Therefore, we can fully combine the characteristics of China market and the needs of consumers in China to conduct targeted product and technology research and development.

Previously, we put forward the concept of "China, China", and EV5 is the product under this concept. Not only did nearly 400 engineers from China participate in the research and development of this model, but the company also extensively investigated the needs of users in China, and combined with the research results, the EV5 was adjusted and optimized several times to better meet the needs of users in China.

We are still trying to follow the characteristics of China market and change with the preferences of users in China. For example, we have cooperated with China head technology companies Baidu and Tencent to bring a car experience that is more suitable for China consumers. On EV5, we took the lead in carrying the car WeChat, which is a leading brand in the joint venture.

In China, electric vehicle users are accustomed to using the "one-stop service" brand APP, so this year we have built the Kia APP, which will be launched in December; For another example, in order to meet the needs of users’ intelligence, we are cooperating with Baidu ERNIE Bot to develop a brand-new car system, and have obtained the L4 automatic driving license in China and started the road test.

In the future, Kia will adhere to the concept of "China, China", continuously increase R&D investment, systematically analyze the characteristics of China market and users’ needs, introduce more innovative technologies and high-value products that meet the needs of China users, and continue to expand investment in China to enhance the comprehensive experience of China users on Kia brand.

In addition, Kia has also firmly practiced social responsibility in China, with accumulated capital investment exceeding 110 million yuan, and won the "Golden Bull Award for Responsibility" issued by the Forum of 100 Responsible Persons for five consecutive years, ranking first among joint venture car companies in social responsibility index for four consecutive years. At the end of October, the company was selected as one of the top ten ESG brands in China automobile industry, which is a recognition of our efforts in environment, society and governance, and the company won the "Responsibility Award" again in the social responsibility exhibition held in Beijing today.

The new car EV5 focuses on the post-80s and post-90s families, and more vehicle configurations will be listed next year.

Beijing News Shell Finance:Kia released its new energy strategy in March 2023. What achievements have been made so far?

Yang Honghai:Kia’s electrification transformation involves many fields. In terms of products, we have achieved two layouts. Kia launched the EV6 in August, positioning the high-energy pure electric coupe. At the auto show, we also launched the EV5 in China for the first time, which is a heavy strategic model of Kia.

In terms of channels, we promote "linkage between old and new". In terms of new channels, brand-new 4S stores that Kia cooperates with large dealer groups such as Simami, Jinlong and Xinhanma have been opened in core cities across the country. At the same time, we are gradually upgrading the national dealer exhibition hall SI 2.0, and Kia will build a more perfect sales and service system that matches the electrification era, and also bring users a more pleasant and convenient new experience.

In terms of charging network, Kia has established a full-speed charging network with "one super, one fast and one slow". First of all, we join hands with Shell to build brand overcharge stations that can realize 800V charging in major cities across the country; At the same time, we also expand the layout of the basic charging network by cooperating with Kuaidian (Energy Chain Smart Power) charging enterprises and laying charging piles for dealers, so as to provide users with efficient and convenient charging services.

In terms of service, we have created a "one-stop service center" for users. We have invested a lot of time and money to develop the brand-new Kia APP, and now it has started internal testing and will be officially launched in December. Kia APP will bring users experience upgrades from all areas of car life such as car purchase, car use, service, socialization and entertainment.

Beijing News Shell Finance:Who will the new car EV5 focus on, and what are the plans for the brand next year?

Yang Honghai:EV5 is a global vehicle launched by Kia in China, and it is also the core vehicle of Kia’s electrification transformation. Our user group will focus on the post-80s and post-90s families who are keen to explore new life and pay attention to quality life. We believe that EV5 will be the "ever-changing intelligent cabin" to accompany home users. In addition to the competitive price of 149,800 yuan, excellent product strength is also a big advantage.

In 2024, in addition to providing the first 530 standard endurance version, we will also launch the long endurance version and GT-Line version next year to meet the diverse needs of users.

After reading this car, I believe you also have a general understanding. This level of models can often take into account the cost performance and practicality, and is often considered by most consumers as the first choice when buying a car.

"absolute monarch" American technology giants, finally let Biden watch not bottom go to.

Recently, US President Biden signed an executive order, calling on federal government agencies to adopt policies to counter the actions that may stifle competition, lead to price increases, restrict consumers’ choices, reduce mergers and acquisitions, and crack down on monopoly giants in various industries.

The technology industry will bear the brunt of the impact. Previously, more than 30 states had launched anti-monopoly lawsuits against large American technology companies such as Amazon, Google, Apple and Facebook.

This article will focus on the following three issues:

1. What does Biden’s executive order and the new anti-monopoly bill mean to American technology giants?

2. Why are the top technology companies that once made Americans proud regarded as the chief culprit of the US economic recession?

3. Why has the government’s anti-monopoly against technology and Internet companies become a global trend?

Heavy-handed antitrust

The executive order signed by Biden this time puts forward guidance and restrictive measures for anti-competitive practices in science and technology, medical care and other fields. At the same time, it aims to increase workers’ income and provide protection for consumers. It involves 12 government departments and contains 72 specific administrative instructions.

▲ Biden signed an executive order.

Specifically, there are a lot of contents in the executive order pointing to the American technology giants.

M&A has become the focus of the U.S. government’s supervision in the science and technology industry, and technology giants will be subject to stricter restrictions when acquiring other small enterprises, especially those emerging competitors;

Introduce new restrictions for online monitoring, user data, etc.

Encourage the Federal Trade Commission to establish rules to prevent Internet companies from using unfair competition methods;

Encourage the FTC to prohibit consumer electronics manufacturers from excluding third-party maintenance policies.

Some media pointed out that Biden’s administrative instructions were specific to each executive department, and even included details about how to review transactions and competition activities, compared with previous governments that left tasks to various departments.

The determination is great and the plan is concrete, which is the most in recent years.

The unfair market environment brought by the monopoly of American technology giants has also led to the lack of innovation in the United States. Coupled with the rising price level and the falling wage level, American consumers and workers have become the payers of the carefree life of technology giants.

If Biden’s executive order can be successfully implemented within a few months, it will undoubtedly bring great pain to a number of large American technology companies.

The splitting of core business and departments, the reduction of product functions, the rejection of mergers and acquisitions, and the strict restrictions on data collection are all big troubles that technology giants will probably face.

The U.S. government, which has always held high the anti-monopoly issue for its own technology enterprises, is finally going to be serious.

Cunning tycoons

American technology companies are best at labeling themselves as innovative, free, transparent and shared, but in fact they are well versed in the way of "store bullying customers".

The unbearable White House, the new policy introduced this time, completely exposes how American technology giants put their own interests above consumers, and how they rely on their deep pockets to let small companies choose between death and annexation.

Just GAFA(Google Amazon Facebook Apple) can list countless examples.

▲ In July 2020, the CEOs of the four major American technology giants attended the antitrust hearing with the same screen.

Facebook maintains its market position by preventive acquisition. If you can’t buy it, copy it.

There is a special early warning intelligence department within Facebook, which mainly focuses on small start-ups that are innovating and developing products that may pose a threat to Facebook in the market. Once these companies become small, Facebook will immediately buy them. The acquisition will not achieve plagiarism and imitation, and then use its own number of users to crush each other. In short, it is necessary to absorb competitors or squeeze out the market.

Within the company, there is even a widely circulated philosophy: don’t bother to copy because of your pride.

Instagram was founded in 2011, and Facebook bought it for $1 billion in 2012. In 2014, Facebook spent $19 billion to buy WhatsApp, the largest instant messaging software in the world at that time.

Once those opponents were acquired and handed over users, markets and data, Zuckerberg stopped paying attention to them, but continued to put Facebook at the core of the product matrix, and even continued to let Facebook copy the algorithms and functions in various applications.

Amazon pretends to be a trading platform that provides matching services, but chooses to trade at the end and treat itself with peace of mind.

As an e-commerce platform, Amazon can obtain commercially sensitive information such as goods and transactions of third-party merchants. It "forces" consumers’ data from merchants, and makes customers’ preferences clear. These data analysis are not used to improve the experience of both parties to the transaction, but are used by Amazon to sell its own goods.

What other people sell well, Amazon will produce and put on the shelves, and let the self-operated goods occupy the recommendation position, pushing the competitive goods aside. The dual identity of platform and trader gives Amazon the opportunity to use its own data advantages to damage the fair market environment.

Both merchants and consumers finally find that the result of their selling and buying is nothing more than a wedding dress for Amazon’s stock price soaring.

Google "rightfully" engages in the overlord clause.

The Android system made by Google has taken the lead in the global mobile phone system market share. As a result, Google "justifiably" makes global mobile phones tied to its own ecology. Chrome is pre-installed in the browser, Gmail is pre-installed in the mailbox, YouTube is the video software, and Google Maps is pre-installed in the map … No matter which country’s brand wants to use Android on the mobile phone, it must first bind the Google three-piece suit.

So far, there is only one country in the world where users can avoid the Google three-piece bundle, and that is China.

As long as the mobile phones sold in Chinese mainland are based on domestic manufacturers’ systems such as emui and miui, or foreign brands such as Samsung and LG equipped with Android, there is no need to pre-install Google. The appearance of Huawei’s self-developed HarmonyOS system makes Google’s idea of bundling even more difficult.

When Apple sells products, it wants to make money for maintenance.

Apple, which does not recognize third-party maintenance, does not support self-disassembly, and does not guarantee without spending much money, can achieve "one fish and three meals" on a piece of equipment-selling machines to earn a sum of money, repairing machines to earn a sum of money, and preventing machines from repairing to earn another sum of money.

In order to get official certification, consumers have to pay several times the price of roadside maintenance booths to get their equipment back.

Monopoly brings unparalleled market power and makes American technology giants "lawless". America’s innovation ability is being eroded by mergers and acquisitions, shanzhai, plagiarism and overlord clauses of these big companies, and the people have to pay for all these consequences.

"Capitalism without competition is not capitalism, but exploitation." This is Biden’s evaluation of monopoly enterprises.

▲ Biden tweeted: "I make it clear that capitalism without competition is not capitalism, but exploitation."

In the face of administrative orders and the latest anti-monopoly law, technology giants will not give in easily.

As soon as the bill came out, executives, lobbyists and propaganda groups of technology giants came to Congress and departments’ offices, found every relevant member of parliament, bombed mailboxes and telephones, and played up the terrible consequences of these laws.

"Anti-monopoly law should promote competition and protect consumers, not punish successful American companies." I don’t know if they can believe this kind of wandering speech …

Global wave

With the improvement of the epidemic situation, governments around the world have gradually shifted their attention to the economic field. Coincidentally, whether in the United States, China or the European Union, the government has put the anti-monopoly against technology giants in a prominent position, and it has taken unprecedented measures quickly and severely.

It has become a global wave to crack down on large-scale technology groups over the interests of consumers.

What is the logic behind this?

First, the characteristics of the technology industry itself make the consequences of monopoly more harmful to society.

Technology and network companies are not only selling a commodity, but also grabbing attention and creating a system ecology. The resources mastered by the technology giants can constantly March into other fields. An Internet-born enterprise can do news and software, as well as sell cars and engage in finance.

The traffic and users they get in the field of science and technology can be completely migrated to another field in this era. Then the monopoly in science and technology means that these giants may realize cross-market and cross-field monopoly in the future, and then the monopoly in the whole market and all fields.

▲ All-encompassing Google product matrix

When the user’s attention and all the users’ ecology are pinned on a few products, in fact, the individual has become a tool person at the mercy of capital.

The market loses competition, consumers lose choice, and large companies can complete the harvest without effort. So how can the government and individuals expect the market to be dynamic?

Second, the window of global technology upgrading has arrived, and all countries need to complete enterprise adjustment to adapt to the next stage of international competition. No matter whether a country’s technological development is mature or not, the anti-monopoly efforts against technology giants at the national level will only become stronger and stronger.

At this stage, 5G technology is gradually maturing, and the world is moving from the era of mobile internet to a new era of Internet of Things. The government should not only ensure that the domestic market is free from exploitation by foreign enterprises, but also fully stimulate the vitality of the market at key time nodes, so that those innovative enterprises that should take off in the next era will not be strangled in the cradle by giants.

At the same time, moderately beating the giants with the best resources, the strongest ability and the strongest financial resources is also to guide them to re-focus on technological research and innovation. Let them do something more "difficult", instead of letting consumers have no choice but to pay for some unskilled bullying behavior.

From this perspective, governments all over the world, including China and the United States, stand at the same starting point in science and technology antitrust.

The difference is that, compared with us, Biden has to use a much more complicated means to confront more and more cunning scientific and technological "elites" who have no fear of the government.

Good luck to him …
