Food and Drug Administration: Special inspection will be conducted on products containing aristolochic acid

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, October 31 (Reporter Chen Cong) Recently, the hot discussion on the correlation between aristolochic acid and liver cancer has aroused public concern. A spokesman for china food and drug administration responded that the safety of aristolochic acid is directly related to public health and the development of Chinese medicine. The food and drug supervision department will further strengthen supervision, conduct special inspections on products containing aristolochic acid on the market, strengthen inspection and testing, and severely crack down on illegal production and business operations.

  A spokesperson of the Food and Drug Administration told the media a few days ago that there is no direct strong data to support the direct correlation between aristolochic acid and liver cancer, but aristolochic acid has obvious nephrotoxicity, which can cause renal tubular function damage and even lead to kidney cancer. In view of this, China has taken a series of risk control measures since 2003, and the number of cases of aristolochic acid renal damage has dropped significantly, and no reports of direct renal cancer have been received.

  It is understood that not all aristolochic plants contain aristolochic acid, and the roots and rhizomes of aristolochic acid medicinal materials contain almost no aristolochic acid. Earlier in China, the medicinal parts have been adjusted, and the medicinal parts of the Aristolochiaceae plant Asarum have been changed from whole grass to roots and rhizomes. In addition, the use of Aristolochia manshuriensis, Radix Stephaniae Tetrandrae and Radix Aristolochiae with high aristolochic acid content has been banned in China, and it is clear that the varieties of oral Chinese patent medicines containing Aristolochia are strictly managed according to prescription drugs.

  The Food and Drug Administration reminds patients that drugs should be used in strict accordance with doctors’ prescriptions and doctor’s orders, and pay attention to the nephrotoxicity and carcinogenic risks of drugs containing Aristolochia. No medicine can be taken in large doses for a long time.

  The spokesman stressed that ensuring drug safety is the main responsibility of enterprises. All enterprises that use medicinal materials containing aristolochic acid as raw materials to produce preparations should evaluate the safety of their products and provide evaluation conclusions within a time limit. If they fail to provide evaluation conclusions within the time limit, they should stop production and cancel the drug approval number; If there is an evaluation conclusion, it is necessary to put forward risk control measures. After the evaluation by the Drug Evaluation Center, the instructions will be revised and improved, and the risks will be eliminated.

  According to reports, the Food and Drug Administration will further strengthen the basic research of proprietary Chinese medicines, carry out epidemiological investigations on the use of related medicinal materials and proprietary Chinese medicines, systematically analyze the cases of liver injury in the national adverse drug reaction monitoring data, and organize technical institutions and experts to conduct risk assessment on medicinal materials and proprietary Chinese medicines containing aristolochic acid, and study and adopt risk control measures such as careful use, restricted use and discontinuation.

Experts say that the Yunnan earthquake belongs to the pre-main residual earthquake sequence, and it is unlikely that a bigger earthquake will follow.

CCTV News:According to the official measurement by China Seismological Network, at 9: 48 last night (May 21st), an earthquake of magnitude 6.4 occurred in Yangbi County, Dali Prefecture, Yunnan Province, with a focal depth of 8 kilometers. The epicenter was located at 25.67 degrees north latitude and 99.87 degrees east longitude.

According to the China Seismological Network, as of 8: 00 this morning (May 22), there were still aftershocks in the area. Yang Guozong, secretary of the Dali State Party Committee, said that there were obvious earthquakes in 12 counties and cities in the whole state.

In addition, Kunming, Baoshan, Lijiang and other places in Yunnan, as well as neighboring Panzhihua and Liangshan, have obvious earthquakes.

A press conference was held in Dali this morning. According to preliminary statistics, as of 6: 00 this morning, the Yangbi 6.4 earthquake in Yunnan killed three people, including two in Yangbi County and one in yong ping. Another 28 people were injured. At present, 192 houses have collapsed.

Wang Xi, a reporter from the General Station, has arrived at the resettlement site of the Dadizi village group in Yangbi County, which is located in the epicenter. Let’s connect with Wang Xi immediately and ask him to introduce the resettlement situation of the local affected people.

Wang Xi, a reporter from the General Station, said that tents for temporary resettlement sites have been set up. There are 380 centralized resettlement sites in Yangbi County, and more than 86,000 people will be resettled centrally and dispersed.

Since May 18th, there have been several earthquakes in Yangbi County, Dali Prefecture, and an earthquake of magnitude 6.4 occurred last night. The last earthquake of magnitude 6 or above in western Yunnan was in 2014. So what is the cause of this Yunnan earthquake? What is the difference from previous earthquakes? Is it related to the Qinghai earthquake? Come and connect with the reporter who is being interviewed by China Seismological Network Center immediately, and bring us an interpretation.

CCTV reporter Cui Shijie interviewed Liu Jie, a researcher at China Seismological Network Center. Liu Jie said that the western Yunnan region is a multi-earthquake area, and the Yunnan earthquake belongs to the pre-main residual earthquake sequence. It is unlikely that a bigger earthquake will occur in Yunnan, and the Qinghai earthquake has nothing to do with the Yunnan earthquake.

Don’t forget to be safe when heating! 19 people were poisoned by carbon monoxide in one place in Shandong in one day.

  Cctv newsWe must pay attention to safety when lighting a fire to keep warm in cold weather. On November 23rd, Zibo Medical Emergency Command Center received more than a dozen calls for help in one day, and 19 people were poisoned by carbon monoxide.

  Shortly after the ambulance was dispatched, the dispatcher received another call for help from carbon monoxide poisoning. This time, an 80-year-old man in Huantai County was poisoned and was in a coma.

  On this day, Shandong Zibo Medical Emergency Command Center received 13 calls for help from carbon monoxide poisoning, and treated 19 patients, all aged between 60 and 90, mostly from rural areas and mountainous areas. It is understood that most of the patients who were treated were poisoned by carbon monoxide because of burning coal indoors for heating. After emergency treatment, 19 people were out of danger and some were still in hospital for observation. According to the data of Zibo Medical Emergency Command Center, since November, the city has received 18 calls for help from carbon monoxide poisoning, and 25 people have been sent to hospital for emergency treatment. Experts remind that heating in winter, don’t forget safety.

  The doctor suggested that once carbon monoxide poisoning occurs, it is necessary to open the window for ventilation and keep warm. If the heart stops breathing, first aid measures such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation should be taken in time.

Debt default approaches the White House’s calculation

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, May 7-American sources disclosed on the 5th that with the approaching date of the federal government hitting the current legal debt ceiling of 31.4 trillion US dollars in June, the White House is considering pushing the Democratic Party and the Republican Party to reach a short-term agreement on temporarily raising the debt ceiling and maintaining it until September, so as to gain time for solving multiple problems such as the debt ceiling, but the relevant plan has not yet been finalized.

  keep a way open for retreat

  NBC News reported on May 5th that the White House has not yet decided to push the two parties in Congress to reach a short-term agreement, but it is still seeking to reach a long-term agreement. However, White House aides are discussing a series of alternatives to avoid economic disaster due to failure to find a solution by the end of May.

  This is a US dollar bill taken in Washington, DC on September 18, 2019. Xinhua News Agency reporter Liu Jie photo

  One of them will invoke the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution. During the debt ceiling crisis in 2011, some people cited the fourth paragraph of the 14th Amendment, arguing that the debt ceiling would be invalid because it was unconstitutional as long as it interfered with the federal government’s debt repayment, and the president had the right to unilaterally raise or ignore the debt ceiling. However, this statement is legally controversial.

  The debt ceiling is the maximum amount that the US Congress sets for the federal government to borrow to fulfill the payment obligations it has already incurred. Touching this "red line" means that the US Treasury Department’s borrowing authorization is exhausted, and unless Congress raises the debt ceiling, the White House has no right to continue borrowing.

  According to two people familiar with the matter, the White House is considering pushing the Democratic and Republican parties in Congress to reach an agreement on raising the debt ceiling until September, so as to gain several months for the two sides to conduct more comprehensive negotiations on federal government expenditures, and the relevant time period coincides with the end of the fiscal year in Japan on September 30, and the two sides may negotiate the federal government budget for the next fiscal year together.

  According to the statistics of the American Chamber of Commerce, since 1993, the United States has temporarily raised the debt ceiling six times, all of which are aimed at gaining time for negotiating a broader plan.

  A private sector executive who has regular contact with the government said: "The White House may not push for short-term agreements, but they don’t need more drama and uncertainty in the economy. The economy is now on the verge. "

  The data shows that the real GDP of the United States increased by only 1.1% at an annual rate in the first quarter of this year. Some analysts infer that the debt ceiling crisis superimposed on the Federal Reserve’s aggressive interest rate hike may trigger the US economic recession. The White House Council of Economic Advisers predicted this week that if the debt ceiling negotiations are delayed to the deadline, the US economy may shrink by 0.3%.

  Regarding the prospect of the Republican Party’s acceptance of the short-term agreement, NBC News said that unless the two parties talk about more results on the debt ceiling, the short-term agreement "may not be helpful."

  Start negotiations

  At present, the Democratic and Republican parties are still tearing at the debt ceiling. Republicans insist that raising the debt ceiling must be based on a substantial reduction in federal government spending, while Democrats say that the debt ceiling should be raised unconditionally.

  On April 26th, the House of Representatives passed a bill put forward by the Republican Party, aiming at the government of Democratic President joseph robinette to promote many policies involving economic, social, people’s livelihood and other fields. On the premise of reducing federal government spending by 4.5 trillion US dollars in 10 years, the bill proposes to suspend the debt ceiling at 31.4 trillion US dollars by March 31 next year; If the two parties can agree to raise the debt ceiling by another $1.5 trillion before this time limit, this time limit will be invalid.

  The US Treasury Department has used "unconventional measures" to avoid debt default since January 19th this year. Finance Minister janet yellen warned that at the current rate of borrowing by the federal government, the current statutory debt ceiling could be reached as early as June 1st. Biden has invited the leader of the Democratic Party, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Republican Kevin McCarthy and Republican leader of the Senate, Mitch McConnell, to the White House for talks on the debt ceiling on the 9th of this month.

  On May 3, US Federal Reserve Chairman Powell attended a press conference in Washington. The US Federal Reserve ended its two-day monetary policy meeting on the 3rd and announced that it would raise the target range of the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to 5% to 5.25% again. Xinhua News Agency reporter Liu Jie photo

  According to NBC News, the White House’s current public position is still to seek a long-term agreement, and intends to promote the "two-track process", that is, to separate government spending from the debt ceiling.

  Biden once again criticized the hard-line conservatives in the Republican Party on the 5th, saying that they pushed for "severe" government spending cuts and did not agree to directly raise the debt ceiling, while the United States "the last thing it needs is a man-made crisis". Reuters said that this shows that the White House will not compromise significantly when it meets on the 9th.

  However, according to people familiar with the two parties, the closer the deadline is, the more likely it is to persuade the other party to make concessions.

  Dasti Johnson, McCarthy’s close friend and chairman of the moderate "Main Street Caucus" of the Republican Party in the House of Representatives, hinted that if the White House "understood our values", that is, the conditions for spending cuts proposed by the Republican Party, "they would find Republicans willing to listen".

Close-up of flood fighting and emergency rescue: a solemn ceremony of "joining the party on the line of fire"

  Anhui Broadcasting Network July 5 news (Yang Guang reporter Zhang Qiushi Anhui Taiwan Zhang Jianya Tongling Taiwan Yu Qian, Liu Shaojun) On the afternoon of July 4, Dadaowei, Baidang Lake, Zongyang County, Anhui Province. After 20 hours of continuous fighting, the sharp knife company of the Tongling detachment of the Armed Police held a solemn ceremony of "joining the Party in the line of fire" at Dadaowei. At the foot is a muddy embankment, and in front of us is a bright red party flag. Two new party member’s expression is serious, and the military appearance is neat. They raised their right hands and swore to be the Communist Party of China (CPC) and prepare party member. Old party member also revisited the pledge of joining the Party together.

  Party member Chen Binbin, a soldier of the sharp knife company of Tongling detachment of the Armed Police Force, said: "In this flood fighting and rescue, I saw old party member actively rushing to the front line to do the dirtiest and most tiring work. I have always wanted to join the party. Today, my dream came true. Like them, I will continue to carry forward the spirit of not being afraid of hardship and fatigue. Strive to be a qualified Communist party member. "

  In the early morning of July 4, the water level of Baidang Lake in Zongyang County, Tongling City reached 14.98 meters, and the over-warning water level was 1.98 meters. There were three landslides in the northern ridge of Dadaowei in Baidang Lake. More than 80 soldiers of the Tongling detachment of the Armed Police were ordered to rush to the scene to carry out emergency response. After more than five hours of fighting, the soldiers made more than 2,000 sandbags, and the landslide danger was temporarily lifted. On the morning of the same day, the local government decided to start flood discharge in the flood discharge area at the right time and use the water pressure balance on both sides of the dam to consolidate the dam. In order to reduce the impact of flood discharge on the villagers around the flood discharge area, officers and men were ordered to enter the field village regardless of the fatigue of continuous operations, and built a sub-dike about 3 kilometers long, 80 meters high and 50 centimeters wide.

  Hu Guangjun, chief of staff of the Tongling detachment command of the Armed Police, told the soldiers: "According to the requirements of the Joint Index, the water level of Baidang Lake has not been reduced, and experts at the scene have made it clear that if there is danger, flood discharge will be carried out in this area behind him. The people in this area have implemented a safe transfer. At present, the second line of defense we have built is to ensure the safety of people’s lives and property in Yaogou Town in Zongyang and even Laozhou Township in Tongling City. "

  It is understood that according to the notification requirements of the Anhui Armed Police Corps, the "firewire joining the Party" activity can be carried out according to the task and difficulty of flood fighting and emergency rescue, combined with the training of party activists and the actual situation on the spot, so as to boost the morale of soldiers and give play to party member’s leading role.

  On the same day, there were recruits who had just joined the army and veterans who had been actively moving closer to the party organization for many years. After the ceremony of "Firewire Joining the Party", the soldiers put into new rescue tasks.

Chen Sicheng’s producer "manslaughter 2" is finished, and then Shawn will join hands to create a new story.

1905 movie network news Recently, the film starring producer, director and leader was officially finished, and a concept poster was launched, with a minimalist children’s composition as the visual subject and "My Dad" as the theme. As the second film in the series of "manslaughter", "manslaughter 2" continues the emotional core of father and child under the type of criminal suspense, and will also present a brand-new role and a brand-new story to the audience.


The concept poster hides the mystery. Shawn challenges the new father role


At first glance, the concept poster of "manslaughter 2" released this time looks like a child’s handwritten composition: on the wrinkled Tian Zige manuscript paper, it is a child’s immature pencil handwriting, the title of the composition is "My Dad", and the content is only "Bang! Bang, bang ‘… …” Three words. What does this onomatopoeia mean? Why is the father in the eyes of children associated with "bang"? Is the water stain on the paper a tear or something? Triggered various speculations from netizens.


In addition, it is worth noting that the title of "manslaughter 2" also has a heart-shaped mosaic of two fingerprints, one large and one small, which is skillfully combined with the overall style of the poster. This minimalist painting style is similar to the concept poster of children’s stick figure in the previous series, and it is also a child’s perspective, which also allows the audience to have more interpretation angles and more imagination space while feeling the family elements.


Shawn once again plays a father, Lin Rilang, who lives a poor but happy life with his wife, A Ling, and his son, Bug, until his son is in urgent need of emergency treatment, and the whole family is hit hard. Lin Rilang, who is desperate, finally decides to try his best to save his son. Xiao Yang was nominated for many awards for his image as Li Weijie, the father of Sheep Without A Shepherd Middle School, and his quiet and emotional performance was well received by the audience. What kind of challenges will Lin Rilang, his father, play in manslaughter 2 this time? It remains to be seen what kind of emotional impact he and his family will bring to everyone.


Quality assurance of gold medal creation team Chen Sicheng escorts young directors.


In addition to Shawn, who plays the role of "father", producer Chen Sicheng once again took charge of "manslaughter 2". Director Dai Mo and the director of Sheep Without A Shepherd’s first film were both outstanding young directors who were excavated and supported by Chen Sicheng. They were entrusted with important tasks from the beginning of online drama. Although the two new directors have different styles, they all have their own pursuits and opinions on commercial films. Producer Chen Sicheng, together with the behind-the-scenes gold medal production team, is committed to providing young directors with sufficient creative soil and space, and choosing themes that fit their personal styles, thus escorting them.


With the producer’s quality control and the joint efforts of directors, actors and all the behind-the-scenes teams, manslaughter 2 will continue the innovation and breakthrough of the series of manslaughter on the one hand, and explore a new mode of combining business types with social topics with brand-new stories on the other hand, so that the audience can have a deeper thinking while getting the ultimate experience of sensory emotions.


The film "manslaughter 2" is adapted from the film, produced by Chen Sicheng and directed by Dai Mo. I look forward to meeting the audience as soon as possible.


Britain will not take military measures against Iran in the short term?

       CCTV News:The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard announced on the 19th that it had seized a British oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz. Earlier in the day, the "Supreme Court" of Gibraltar, a British overseas territory, ruled to extend the detention of the tanker "Grace I" loaded with Iranian crude oil.

       Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif said on the 20th that Iran’s actions are in line with international maritime regulations. Zarif posted on social media that unlike the "piracy" in which Iranian oil tankers were detained in the waters of Gibraltar, Iran’s seizure of the "Steiner Empire" this time is in line with international maritime regulations. Zarif urged Britain not to become a vassal role of the United States in launching economic terrorism.

       Iranian state television reported today (21st) that all the 23 crew members of the oil tanker "Steiner Empire" detained by Iran are safe and in good health, and they are now in bandar abbas. According to Iranian media reports, the detained British oil tanker has many illegal operations.

       Sharif, spokesman of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, said in a statement on the 20th that "Steiner Empire" No.19 did not enter from the normal entrance, but tried to enter the sea from the south channel of the strait, which should have been the exit, which affected the safety of the route. In addition, the tanker "shut down the response system and ignored many warnings issued by the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps". After receiving the request from the port and marine department of Hormuzgan province, the Iranian navy launched the seizure of the oil tanker.

       The Iranian side said that the Steiner Empire No.19 entered the Strait of Hormuz under the escort of British warships. During the seizure, the Royal Navy warships escorting the oil tanker tried to block the seizure, but the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guards took the oil tanker to bandar abbas in southern Iran.

       Earlier in the day, Iranian media also released the latest images of the oil tanker "Steiner Empire" detained in bandar abbas. According to previous news from Iran, the 23 crew members of the tanker will stay on board until the relevant investigation is over.

       In addition, earlier on the 20th local time in Iran, the head of the port and maritime agency in Hormuzgan province also said that the Steiner Empire had collided with an Iranian fishing boat. The owner of the tanker, Steiner Bourcq Company of Sweden, responded in a statement that the "Steiner Empire" tanker "completely abides by navigation and international rules".

       British Foreign Secretary Hunt and Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif telephoned on the 20th and expressed their respective positions. Hunter said that Britain’s seizure of the Steiner Empire by Iran was totally unacceptable, and that Iran should release the tanker as soon as possible. Zarif stressed that Iran’s seizure of oil tankers complies with maritime regulations.

       Some analysts believe that the local authorities in Gibraltar, with the assistance of the British Navy, seized the "Grace I" tanker transporting Iranian crude oil, which was the direct cause of this Iranian action.

       On July 4th, the Gibraltar authorities, with the assistance of the British Navy, detained Grace I on the grounds of violating the EU ban. The Iranian side denied the illegal accusation, demanded the immediate release of the detained tanker and warned Britain not to play "dangerous games".

       On July 19th, the Gibraltar authorities "Supreme Court" ruled to extend the detention period of Grace I..

       Analysts believe that Iran had expected to solve the problem of the oil tanker being detained through consultation, but the decision of the Gibraltar authorities to extend the detention period undoubtedly stimulated Iran to detain the "Steiner Empire" oil tanker or a counter-measure and revenge against the recent British practice. British Foreign Secretary Jeremy hunter said the seizure of Iranian oil tankers was "unacceptable". He also stressed that if things are not resolved, "there will be serious consequences."

       On the 20th local time, within 24 hours of the seizure of the oil tanker "Steiner Empire", the British government held two consecutive high-level security meetings code-named "Cobra" to discuss the countermeasures to deal with this incident. At the same time, Britain also took diplomatic action to express its protest, and called for a meeting with Iran’s highest-ranking diplomatic official in Britain on the 20th.

       Some experts believe that if Britain wants to ensure that its oil tanker will not be detained in the Strait of Hormuz again, it should be equipped with enough surface ships to escort the oil tanker. But in fact, there are not many British ships in the Strait of Hormuz. In addition, Britain is at a critical moment of political change, which will inevitably affect Britain’s decisive handling of this incident. In addition, Britain is also facing the dilemma of Brexit, and it is unlikely to escalate its actions and use military means to solve the problem in the short term. British government officials also said in an interview with the media that they would take strong measures to promote the resolution of the incident, but did not consider military means.

In Tokyo, 4000 people live in Internet cafes every day.

They are called "Internet cafe refugees"

If you travel freely to Japan and stay in a city for a day without booking a hotel room, many travel guides will tell you that Japanese Internet cafes are a good place to spend the night.

Compared with the Internet cafes in China, Japanese Internet cafes are more "multi-functional", with private single compartments, simple beds and blankets, all kinds of food and drinks, brushing your teeth and taking a hot bath, and more importantly, the price is quite cheap, with the price of one night included as long as about 2,000 yen.

This has also attracted the curiosity of many foreign netizens. Even recently, on Youtube and other video platforms, there has been an upsurge of going to Japanese Internet cafes to experience life and shoot Vlog.

Foreigners are full of curiosity about Japanese Internet cafes and admire that it is a "paradise for otaku". But for some Japanese, it is a dark world full of depression and loneliness.

These people have no home and have to live in internet cafes every day because of life. They are called "Internet cafe refugees".

Get the number at the front desk, walk into your own single compartment, close the door, turn on the computer and sit on the floor. It becomes an isolated little world.

Hungry? Click the mouse and all kinds of fast food fried rice will be delivered to you.

When you are thirsty, you can find vending machines everywhere, and the types of drinks are comparable to any convenience store.

At bedtime, there is a separate bathroom at the end of the corridor.

Take off makeup, brush your teeth, take a shower, blow dry your hair, go back to the cubicle and sleep together, and spend the whole night on the folding mat.

This way of life, once in a while, has a different taste, but it is torture every day.

It is unimaginable that tens of thousands of people in Japan are experiencing this life every day.

Since the late 1990s, similar inter-grid Internet cafes have sprung up in Japan. After 2000, "Internet cafe refugees" became a hot topic in Japan.

In 2007, the first statistics of Japanese government departments found that on average, more than 60,000 people spent the night in Internet cafes in Japan, of which 5,400 were "permanent residents".

Due to the weak economic situation in Japan, this figure has been on the rise in the past decade. In a recent survey, the number of "Internet cafe refugees" in Tokyo alone reached 4,000.

01

A refuge for people who are afraid of society

These "Internet cafe refugees" live here for various reasons. Some are young people who have just come to big cities to seek gold, some are middle-aged people who have been laid off by their companies for over half a year, and many people can’t integrate into society because of personality problems, so they can only choose to settle down in Internet cafes.

These Internet cafes meet all the basic needs of the "home". When one door is closed, there is no need to deal with others, and there is a network that can contact the outside world with a virtual identity. Therefore, these cubicles have become the best refuge for Japanese social terrorists.

Most of these people, at first, just held the idea of a short stay in the Internet cafe, but in the end they stayed week after week, month after month, and they could never get back to their normal lives.

Masada, a 39-year-old programmer, lived in Manboo Internet Cafe in Tokyo for two years, and his daily work was also done on the computer in the Internet Cafe.

"The living environment here is actually not ideal. The room is not completely private. The walls of the compartment are not connected to the ceiling. People next door can see what you are doing without standing on tiptoe." Masada said that he could vaguely hear the voices of people talking and snoring next to him.

Masada used to rent a house, but many daily chores drove him crazy. He was afraid of contact with others and didn’t get along well with his neighbors. Finally, he simply escaped and lived in an Internet cafe.

"I don’t like the feeling of being bound, I don’t like being trapped in one place and living a free life."

In the Internet cafe, Masada didn’t have to worry about being disturbed by others, and she hardly went out every day. She slept when she was sleepy, surfed the Internet and worked when she woke up, and ate instant noodles when she was hungry, so she lived for two years.

"In the countryside, people are very enthusiastic. Tokyo is different. People don’t care about you. They only care about themselves."

Masada said that he often asks himself, do you really want to live like this all your life? On the occasion of the second anniversary of Manboo Internet Cafe, Masada finally made up his mind to leave the Internet Cafe.

"No one can live entirely on their own, and they still have to communicate with the outside world. It’s a good place to stay, but it’s impossible to stay forever. Still want to force yourself to go out and accept this new world. “

02

I feel at ease when I feel someone next door.

There are thousands of Internet cafes like Manboo all over Japan. In addition to severe social phobia patients like Masada, there are also many people who have lost their life goals.

Xiao Tong, a 23-year-old nightclub girl, lived in Manboo for two months.

"I hate loneliness, but I want to have my own independent space. This is actually very contradictory, but I found a balance in the Internet cafe. This is a private room, but you can feel that there are people next door at any time, which makes me feel at ease. "

When Xiaoyan was 16 years old, her parents kicked her out of the house on the grounds that she was an adult. "They care more about my brothers and sisters and let me die."

Due to her livelihood, Xiaoyan got a job as a hostess in a nightclub in Tokyo. Go out at night every day, sleep in the internet cafe cubicle during the day, go out to work when it is dark, and come back with fatigue in the early morning.

"My health has always been bad. At that time, I hoped to live to be 20 years old. But after this age, I am still a little lost. "

Xiaoyan said that she has no goal and can’t find a reason to live. She can only let life take her forward.

"I don’t have your so-called dream. I don’t even know where I will be a year from now, but I will be a little happier."

Xiaoyan didn’t give up life completely, but tried to find her own position in this city. "If I really want to say it, I think it’s not bad to be a serious masseur. I’m willing to learn skills."

Temporary workers marginalized by Japanese society

In addition to social fear and other psychological problems being marginalized by society, another culprit that drives people into Internet cafes as refugees is Japan’s informal employment system.

In the Japanese workplace, about one-third of people are employed informally, that is, we often see dispatched members or contract members in Japanese dramas. Compared with the regular employees of the same company, their income is only half, and there is no welfare, so the income of amateurs is not enough to give them the right to enjoy social relief.

The cost of living in Tokyo is so high that it is not easy to find a place to live here. According to statistics, 58% of the "Internet cafe refugees" in Japan are informal employees.

In 2015, Japanese photographer Tomita Zhisui filmed a series of documentary short films "One-off Workers in Japan", one of which was named "Internet Cafe Refugees", and won the third prize of the long-form category of the Jose Award. This short film records the true story of being forced to live in an Internet cafe because he can’t integrate into the workplace.

Wen, 26, also worked as a security guard on a construction site. At first, he looked for an apartment for a long time, but finally he gave up because he couldn’t afford it and lived in an Internet cafe.

"I often go to Internet cafes at ordinary times, so there is not so much resistance. But I still couldn’t sleep on the first night. From time to time, I was awakened by noise such as washing dishes outside, and people were very upset. "

Wenye’s income is enough to meet the living expenses in the Internet cafe. Here, the equipment is complete, and the electricity and network fees are all inclusive. It doesn’t cost too much. "But even if you want to save money, you can’t save it at all."

Although he has lived in an Internet cafe for 22 months, Wen has never given up on himself and is always working hard to become a full-time employee.

"How to say, also can’t always play temporary workers like this. So I will improve my skills from now on. I am still young and can always be a regular employee. "

04

The destination of office workers after fleeing from the workplace

Another story in the short film tells Wen that the reality may be more cruel than he thought, because even if he becomes a regular employee, he will face another level of high-intensity work pressure and endless workplace bullying.

Sakai, the protagonist of this story, is 42 years old. He worked in a credit card company for 20 years before living in an Internet cafe.

"There are 120-200 hours of overtime every month, and the content of the work is computer management and the like. I don’t have time to go home at all. I often take a nap in the company and then go to work. After waking up, I can’t tell whether it is day or night. "

Over time, Sakai’s mental state had some problems, and people around him began to complain that he was grumpy and always absent-minded, and he didn’t notice it himself. After seeing a doctor, he was diagnosed with depression.

"I took a month’s sick leave with the company, and when I came back, I found someone gossiping in front of the leader and saying,’ This guy is just too weak’ and so on."

Since then, Sakai’s salary has never risen, and the leader has stopped talking to him.

"The moment I handed in my resignation letter, it was so refreshing!" After resigning, Sakai went out to play for three months, thinking only of a new life and a happy life.

"I definitely don’t want to be an office worker anymore. I want to live in a completely different country for two or three years. This is my dream."

However, when I said this sentence, Sakai had lived in an Internet cafe for four months.

The stories of these "Internet cafe refugees" are somewhat depressing, because they have stepped into the quagmire on the edge of society for various reasons, and it is difficult to pull away.

But despite this, each of them still has hope for life. Whether they have lived in an Internet cafe for two months or two years, they are willing to stop their gloomy life and find a new direction in life. This is still very commendable.

So look at the bitterness that these people say with a smile. We should cherish the life we have now, shouldn’t we?
