春运遇降温,1月以来羽绒服销量同比上涨逾50%******
日前,受强冷空气及南支槽影响,我国大部地区出现了雨雪及大风降温天气。我国多地区气温先后下降8~12℃,各地地方气象台也相继发布寒潮预警。
与此同时,春节前夕,受寒潮影响,消费趋势上也出现了明显的变化,保暖消费与年货消费一起成为人们关注的重点。特卖电商唯品会相关数据显示,1月以来,羽绒服、保暖内衣、电暖器等保暖用品在平台上的热度持续走高。
每到冬季,羽绒服都是不少人的购物首选,2023年同样不例外。不过,不同于往年,现在市面上销售的羽绒服有所不同。2022年年初,我国发布了GB/T14272-2021《羽绒服装》标准(下称“新国标”),并于2022年4月1日正式实施。其中,新国标明确把“含绒量”修改为“绒子含量”。新国标的起草单位包含波司登、雪中飞、艾莱依、雅鹿等行业头部公司,森马、耐克、七匹狼等服饰企业也参与其中。
根据新的《羽绒服装》标准,只有绒子含量不低于50%,才能称为羽绒服。绒子是一朵羽绒中最优质的部分,直接发挥保暖作用;羽丝、绒丝则是朵绒掉下来的单丝,没有蓬松感。简单来说,“羽绒=绒子+羽丝、绒丝”。就同样的充绒量而言,绒子含量高,保暖性更强;绒子含量低、绒丝与羽丝含量高,容易出现“不保暖且容易漏丝”等问题。
业内人士认为,新国标能改善、解决羽绒服常出现的钻毛问题。因为钻毛主要和里衬品质及绒子含量相关,里衬品质越好、含绒量越高越不容易钻毛。此外,新国标的实施也有利于进一步提升国产羽绒服整体品质,增强其市场竞争力。
新标准背后,牵动的是千亿元级别的市场。中国服装协会发布的数据显示,2015年至2021年,中国羽绒服市场规模从767亿元增长至1562亿元,年均复合增速达到12.6%,高于整体服装市场,有机构估计 2022年这一数字超过到1600亿元。
记者搜索各大电商平台发现,诸多相关品牌目前已经换上了新标。在羽绒服新国标实施的首个旺季近一个多月来,不少品牌羽绒服的销量持续增加。
唯品会数据显示,1月以来羽绒服销量同比上涨50%以上,运动羽绒服销量同比翻倍。在天猫上,服饰向来是重头,在近期冬装的销售中,羽绒服品牌占比近半,除冠军波司登外,鸭鸭超越优衣库跃居第二,雪中飞重进前五,雅鹿上榜排名第九。
除了羽绒服外,其他保暖产品也一样热销。不过,根据平台提供的信息,不同地域不同的御寒方式也是多样化。
唯品会数据显示,近两周来,北京市民在御寒方面更多选择保暖内衣,保暖内衣销量平均增长60%以上。上海消费者则更青睐电热毯,电热毯销量同比增长30%以上。成都消费者钟爱购买羽绒服,女/男式羽绒服在当地位居销量前两位。在广州,女式大衣的销量同比猛增59%,儿童毛衣销量同比增长83%。
中新网评:美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾******
中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后,美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕,众议院共和党领袖凯文·麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录,将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。

由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素,众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中,美国民主党议员继续抱团,多轮投票中,一票不投麦卡锡,共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。
麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折,除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外,与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。
一方面,共和党党内反对者认为,麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱,无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府,另一方面,因为共和党的多数优势微弱,党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大,有利于他们巩固自己的选票。
此外,党内反对者也认为,自己的选票没有换取更多利益,希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步,比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。
作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物,众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任,选举几乎没有悬念。然而,麦卡锡此次为当选,不得不做出多个关键让步,其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制,使得众议长的权力被削弱,难以掌控众议院。
美国有线电视新闻网CNN称,麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步,这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。
这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下,党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上,美国两党相互拆台,陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内,也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系,相互对抗,选票变成了谋利益的工具。
从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举,“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈,长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力,其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。
两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病,美国所谓的“民主”形象,让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举,变成了政客们利益置换的游戏,进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能,不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。
House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy
(ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy".
The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader.
Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party.
On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration.
On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses.
Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees.
As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives.
But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker.
CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful.
This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally.
Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits.
From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public.
Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world.
The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.
