[00:00:39] Dear audience, hello everyone. This is CCTV News Channel.
[00:00:43] Welcome to this live news broadcast at 3 a.m.
[00:00:46] The latest data from Customs shows that in the first seven months of this year,
[00:00:50] China's goods trade imports and exports reached 30.13 trillion yuan,
[00:00:54] marking the first time in history that it has surpassed the 30 trillion yuan mark
[00:00:57] for the same period.
[00:01:08] According to customs statistics, in the first 7 months of this year, China's total goods trade imports and exports amounted to 30.13 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 17.3%. Among them, exports were 17.44 trillion yuan, an increase of 14%, and
[00:01:12] imports were 12.69 trillion yuan, an increase of 22%. In July,
[00:01:16] imports and exports totaled 4.66 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of
[00:01:19] 19.2%, continuing the good growth trend of the first half of the year, with imports and exports exceeding
[00:01:23] 4 trillion yuan for five consecutive months. In July, China's
[00:01:27] high-tech product exports increased by more than 50%.
[00:01:39] China is actively expanding its independent opening up, proactively increasing imports, and promoting balanced development of imports and exports. As of
[00:01:43] now, it has implemented zero tariff policies with 63 countries, and its
[00:01:46] import scale has been ranked second globally for 17 consecutive years. In the first
[00:01:50] seven months of this year, China's import growth rate was eight percentage points faster than its export growth rate,
[00:01:54] with more high-quality products from around the world entering the Chinese market, sharing
[00:01:58] China's opportunities. In the first seven months, China's imports and exports with more than 180 countries and
[00:02:02] regions maintained growth, sharing opportunities and common development with countries around the world,
[00:02:06] and trade cooperation has become more diversified and stable. As China's diversified
[00:02:10] international transport channel system continues to improve, cross-border freight transport
[00:02:13] has become more convenient and efficient. Various modes of transport for imports and exports have
[00:02:17] all increased. In the first 7 months of this year, China's imports and exports by water, air,
[00:02:21] road, and rail transport increased by
[00:02:25] 6.9%, 34.6%, 40.7%, and 17.2% respectively.
[00:02:29] Air and road transport of imported and exported goods accounted for four-tenths, with growth
[00:02:33] exceeding three-tenths. The reporter
[00:02:36] learned from China South-to-North Water Diversion Group that as of August 7, the South-to-North Water Diversion Middle Route Project
[00:02:40] has cumulatively diverted over
[00:02:44] 80 billion cubic meters of water to the north, benefiting nearly 118 million people in Henan, Hebei, Tianjin, and Beijing,
[00:02:48] bringing good and fresh water to 27 large and medium-sized cities
[00:02:51] and 243 counties and districts along the route.
[00:02:55] The Daying Airport Economic Zone on the 7th.
[00:02:58] 型 机 场 灵 空 经 济 区 。
[00:03:30] At the same time, it also facilitated the main cross-border channels between
[00:03:34] Asia and Europe. Enterprises can freely choose various transportation methods such as air freight,
[00:03:37] China-Europe freight trains, or air-rail intermodal transport.
[00:03:41] The service center was jointly established by the Daxing Airport Economic Zone Management
[00:03:45] Committee and Hebei Road and Port Group to integrate global
[00:03:49] logistics resources and provide foreign trade enterprises with one-stop
[00:03:53] services from booking to customs declaration, realizing one-time entrustment, full
[00:03:57] direct delivery, and single tracking.
[00:04:14] to
[00:04:16] promote high-level development of regional opening up. In July this year, Guangdong's total electricity consumption
[00:04:20] exceeded 100 billion kilowatt-hours, becoming the first province in the country
[00:04:24] to break 100 billion kilowatt-hours in a single month this year.
[00:04:28] The strong electricity demand.
[00:05:00] 7.67% continued to maintain health.
[00:05:07] 。
[00:05:07] From January to July, Guangdong's secondary industry electricity consumption was 328.351 billion kilowatt-hours.
[00:05:16] Among them, electricity consumption for high-tech and equipment manufacturing industries increased by
[00:05:19] 8.77% year-on-year. Automotive
[00:05:22] manufacturing, specialized equipment manufacturing, computers, communications, and other
[00:05:25] electronic equipment manufacturing ranked among the top three in growth rate,
[00:05:29] with new kinetic energy continuously released. In segmented areas,
[00:05:33] driven by the increasing demand for artificial intelligence computing power, from January to
[00:05:36] July, the province's data center electricity consumption increased by
[00:05:40] 19.76% year-on-year.
[00:05:42] As a national data center cluster in South China, its year-on-year growth rate
[00:05:46] from January to July reached
[00:05:48] 317.90%. The power department made forward-looking plans
[00:05:52] and met the demand for big data computing through new substations and
[00:05:56] other means. Currently, Guangdong's provincial power operation is
[00:06:00] safe, orderly, and sufficient. From
[00:06:04] the deadline for registration for military service in the second half of the year, August 10 at 24:00,
[00:06:08] there are only two days left. For days, military service physical examinations
[00:06:11] have been conducted across the country.
[00:07:46] In Funing, Jiangsu, the Ningjin military service department regards continuous recruitment
[00:07:49] as a top priority. The continuous recruitment supervisors
[00:07:53] conduct full-time on-site supervision and open supervision to ensure that
[00:07:57] every young person applying for military service can receive a comprehensive, accurate
[00:08:01] physical assessment, and that disqualifications are based on evidence and
[00:08:04] qualifications meet standards. Dedicating oneself to national defense is the best youth chapter for young people.
[00:08:08] I volunteer to respond to the call of the country, without hesitation.
[00:08:52] According to Fars News Agency, a source said that under
[00:08:55] the negotiations between Iran and Oman, during the transition period, ships
[00:08:59] will enter through the northern channel near Iran and leave through
[00:09:03] the southern channel near Oman. After the end of the transition period,
[00:09:07] both of the above channels will be closed, and all ships
[00:09:11] will need to pass through a new central channel. The control of the channel for ships entering
[00:09:15] belongs to Iran, while the exit channel is jointly managed
[00:09:19] by Iran and Oman. The source also denied
[00:09:22] rumors of disputes between Iran and Oman over transit fees,
[00:09:26] stating that transit fees for ships passing through the strait will be integrated into various
[00:09:30] service fees for unified calculation. On the same day, Fars
[00:09:34] News Agency also reported that Salimi, a member of the Iranian Parliament's Presidium,
[00:09:37] publicly released a proposed strategic management plan for the Strait of Hormuz.
[00:09:41] 案 出 。
[00:10:02] This is a document separately reviewed by Iran and not part of the negotiations between Iran and Oman.
[00:10:06] Local time on the 6th, US President Trump stated that it is still too early to say
[00:10:10] about re-election.
[00:10:25] officials said that the agreement reached between Iran and Oman on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz
[00:10:29] does not involve charging transit fees.
[00:10:32] According to Reuters report on the 6th, the latest
[00:10:36] poll released by Reuters and Ipsos Group shows that
[00:10:40] five months after the outbreak of each conflict, about half of the surveyed US citizens
[00:10:43] believe that the Middle East will fall into greater chaos.
[00:10:47] The survey shows that 50% of the respondents
[00:10:51] believe that US military action against Iran will destabilize
[00:10:55] the Middle East in the next year. This figure is about
[00:10:59] three times that of respondents who believe that the war will improve regional stability.
[00:11:02] US President Trump signed
[00:11:06] two executive orders on the 6th, aimed at tightening the scope of birthright citizenship
[00:11:09] and increasing efforts to combat so-called birth tourism.
[00:11:13] According to the text of the executive order released by the White House,
[00:11:15] the first executive order lists some specific foreign nationals'
[00:11:19] children born in the US who are not eligible for
[00:11:23] birthright citizenship.
[00:12:15] This is Trump's second attempt to restrict birthright citizenship during his second
[00:12:19] presidential term. Trump signed an executive order upon his
[00:12:22] return to the White House in January 2025, stipulating that newborns whose parents are
[00:12:26] neither US citizens nor legal permanent residents cannot automatically
[00:12:30] obtain US citizenship. On June 30 this year,
[00:12:34] the US Supreme Court ruled to overturn this executive order.
[00:12:38] US media reported that Trump's latest executive order
[00:12:41] is also likely to be challenged in court, because the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution
[00:12:45] stipulates that all persons born or naturalized in the United States,
[00:12:49] and subject to its jurisdiction, are citizens of the United States.

[00:12:55] According to Bloomberg, on the 7th, the Japanese Yen again depreciated after
[00:12:58] the joint intervention in the foreign exchange market by the US and Japan, having lost nearly half
[00:13:02] of the gains made from the US-Japan market intervention.
[00:13:06] On the 7th, the Japanese Yen exchange rate once fell
[00:13:08] to 158.58 Japanese Yen
[00:13:12] per US dollar, while previously, after the US-Japan joint
[00:13:15] foreign exchange market intervention, the Japanese Yen exchange rate once rose to
[00:13:19] 155.22 Japanese Yen per US dollar on the 3rd.
[00:13:22] Before the US-Japan intervention,
[00:13:25] in late January, the Japanese Yen exchange rate once approached 164 Japanese Yen
[00:13:29] per US dollar. Bloomberg reported that the Japanese Yen has already lost
[00:13:32] nearly half of the gains after the US-Japan joint intervention. The report said
[00:13:36] that this decline highlights the limitations of intervention measures in reversing the long-term depreciation of the Japanese Yen.
[00:13:40] The huge interest rate difference between the US and Japan,
[00:13:44] Japan's heavy debt burden, and geopolitical
[00:13:48] uncertainty continue to put pressure on the Japanese Yen exchange rate. Analysts pointed out that the US intervention to stabilize
[00:13:52] the Japanese Yen exchange rate is a significant move.
[00:14:11] The US participation enhanced the symbolic significance of the intervention, increasing the risk of speculators continuing to short the Japanese Yen. However,
[00:14:15] if Japan's fiscal policy and central bank's interest rate policy do not change,
[00:14:19] the Japanese Yen will be difficult to get sustained support.
[00:14:23] On the 7th, the Japanese Ministry of Finance.
[00:14:48] Data released by the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries on the 7th shows that in fiscal year 2025 (April
[00:14:52] 2025 to March 2026), Japan's food self-sufficiency rate,
[00:14:56] calculated by calories, decreased by one percentage point to
[00:15:00] 37%, the lowest level in history.
[00:15:03] Japan's food self-sufficiency rate refers to the proportion of domestically produced food in the total domestic food
[00:15:07] supply. The Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries stated that the decrease in rice consumption is an important reason for
[00:15:11] the decline in the food self-sufficiency rate. Japanese rice consumption has long relied
[00:15:15] mainly on domestic supply and is an important support for Japan's food self-sufficiency rate.
[00:15:18] The rise in rice prices has led to a decrease in residents' rice consumption,
[00:15:22] and the calories provided by domestically produced rice have also decreased, significantly
[00:15:26] dragging down Japan's overall food self-sufficiency rate.

[00:16:07] The US Embassy in Mexico did not specify the nature of the so-called threat
[00:16:11] to US interests in its security alert. However, Michoacán State Governor
[00:16:15] Bedoya stated that after multiple arrests related to extortion, the suspension of
[00:16:19] relevant work was a preventive measure taken by the US side. He
[00:16:23] emphasized that the local government is maintaining close communication with the security department
[00:16:26] of the US Embassy in Mexico, hoping that the inspection work required for
[00:16:30] avocado exports can resume as soon as possible. Mexican President
[00:16:34] Newsom stated on the 6th that the Mexican National Guard has been dispatched
[00:16:38] to Michoacán State to strengthen security in the region.
[00:16:42] 莫 西 哥 国 民 警 卫 队 , 以 加 强 该 地 区 的 安 全
[00:16:45] 。
[00:16:53] as soon as possible with the Department of Agriculture and the
[00:16:57] inspection areas so that we can return to this
[00:17:00] work or, in the worst case, replace it
[00:17:04] with Senasica inspectors, which is also a possibility.
[00:17:07] Although avocado farmers in Michoacán are still
[00:17:11] working on their farms, the local avocado packing plants have stopped working.
[00:17:15] They are concerned that if this situation continues, it will have a serious impact
[00:17:19] on families in the area who rely on avocados for their livelihood.
[00:17:23] of affected families at this
[00:17:26] moment and worried about depending on the avocado industry to
[00:17:30] know what is going to happen or what we are going to do and well
[00:17:34] imagine if we just put ourselves to...
[00:18:26] Listen to the Sound of Reading in Chinese Countryside picture exhibition, which was held in
[00:18:30] Ottawa, the capital of Canada, on the 5th. The exhibition comprehensively displayed China
[00:18:34] through images, videos, publications, and other materials.
[00:18:55] The construction of rural reading rooms started in 2007.
[00:18:58] It now covers more than 580,000
[00:19:02] administrative villages. CBBY, as one of
[00:19:06] the forces.
[00:19:09] Chinese picture books are very beautiful, their
[00:19:13] culture is very beautiful and children need to know
[00:19:16] each other. The exhibition also highlighted the 2026 International Children's Book Fair and simultaneously showcased nearly 100 picture books.
[00:19:35] You are watching the News Live Room.
[00:19:39] Let's look at our country's flood situation. On the morning of the 7th,
[00:19:43] the Ministry of Water Resources held a meeting to analyze and judge the national flood
[00:19:46] control situation. In the next three days, the Yongjiang and Jiaojiang Rivers may experience
[00:19:50] flash floods. Some areas in southwestern Hebei and eastern Shanxi need to prevent mountain floods
[00:19:54] and sea floods. From
[00:19:58] August 7 to 9, due to rainfall, the Yongjiang and Jiaojiang Rivers
[00:20:01] may experience flash floods. Some small and medium-sized rivers and
[00:20:05] the Taihu Lake surrounding river network area
[00:20:37] From Feng Si Xing's cloud map, we can see that its center today
[00:20:41] has passed through the Ryukyu Islands. From the structure, we can actually see that
[00:20:45] its first characteristic is that it is very huge. Currently, its diameter
[00:20:49] is about 1100 kilometers. So, when such a behemoth affects
[00:20:53] our country, the affected area will be relatively wide. Its
[00:20:57] second characteristic is that its central structure is relatively dense,
[00:21:00] and the wind and rain impact is significant. We can see from the cloud map that there is
[00:21:04] dry air intrusion, but the change in its central impact is relatively small. Therefore,
[00:21:08] the wind and rain near the typhoon's landing point may be more obvious.
[00:21:12] The third characteristic comes from its path.
[00:21:15] It was formed on the afternoon of July 27.
[00:21:18] 。
[00:22:20] In the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the cumulative rainfall is also very high.
[00:22:23] 。
[00:22:30] Under the combined influence of cold and warm air, our country's northern regions will still face heavy
[00:22:34] rainfall. In North China, the Yellow Sea, and other places, although there are still some variables
[00:22:38] in the rainfall in this area, friends in the north should also pay attention to the impact of heavy rainfall
[00:22:41] early next week. As Typhoon
[00:22:44] Baihaitun approaches China's East China coastal areas, many places
[00:22:48] have taken various measures.
[00:22:56] The National Flood Control Headquarters activated a Level III flood control emergency response for Zhejiang and Fujian on the 7th. At 16:00 on the afternoon of the 7th,
[00:23:00] the Fujian Provincial Flood Control Headquarters raised the typhoon emergency response to Level III.
[00:23:04] All departments in Fujian are closely monitoring the movement of Typhoon Baihaitun
[00:23:08] and the impact of wind, rain, and waves, and adjusting their response in time to do a good job in responding.
[00:23:11] To ensure safety, Fujian Province has evacuated some
[00:23:15] ships and personnel from the sea.
[00:23:17] 。
[00:24:36] Shanghai Passenger Ship Co., Ltd. announced that starting from the morning of the 7th,
[00:24:40] except for the route between Changxing Island and Hengsha Island, all routes in the city
[00:24:44] have gradually suspended services. When services will resume will be announced separately.
[00:24:48] 知 。
[00:25:01] during the peak period, the daily passenger flow exceeded 50,000 people.

[00:25:08] The Great Wall is littered with garbage.
[00:25:14] In today's midnight story, we will follow the camera to these Great Wall sections.
[00:25:44] The sanitation worker sweeping here is named Qian Zhansheng, 48
[00:25:47] years old this year. His daily job is to patrol this hot and steep mountain
[00:25:51] path repeatedly, meticulously sweeping.
[00:25:55] This is now the highest point of the Badaling Great Wall. It is also the place
[00:25:59] with the most people, because when there are many people, sometimes they eat.
[00:27:03] trash will also corrode this city wall, like those
[00:27:06] drinks, especially those acidic drinks,
[00:27:10] they also do great damage to the Great Wall, so we must persevere even in this high
[00:27:13] temperature to make sure that this trash is cleaned
[00:27:17] up.
[00:27:28] The sanitation of the Great Wall surface is progressing in an orderly manner, and the garbage cleaning work on the outer side of the Great Wall is also being carried out simultaneously.
[00:27:32] Most of the garbage that falls on the outside of the Great Wall are lost umbrellas, hats,
[00:27:36] mineral water bottles, paper scraps, and other items. This
[00:27:40] type of garbage can only be cleaned one by one through manual aerial work.
[00:27:43] At 8 AM, sanitation worker Sun Dong put on his safety protection
[00:27:47] equipment and began aerial work on the outer wall of the Great Wall.
[00:28:02] At noon, the sun was getting stronger, and the ground temperature reached its peak.
[00:28:06] The sanitation workers were still patrolling and working on the city wall. Qian Zhansheng's
[00:28:10] work clothes were already soaked with sweat, and his hair
[00:28:14] was wet with sweat. The surface of his skin, sometimes when you touch it,
[00:28:17] it's scalding. Just going up once, just going up once
[00:28:21] is completely drenched. As long as you go up the Great Wall, there's no
[00:28:24] steel. garbage
