Land Rover from Britain has always occupied a place in the recreational vehicle market in Europe. However, as the "Rolls-Royce in SUV", there is no doubt that Land Rover pays attention to its interior design. This time, the top models of Land Rover Range Rover will come to report with greater motivation, which is the protagonist of this article, Range Rover Supercharged.

　　

　　Regardless of whether the Land Rover Range Rover in the past was off-road oriented or the later Land Rover Range Rover was luxury oriented, after retaining two fine traditions, since it is called "Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged", this time it must be an SUV with the ultimate performance orientation.

　　The Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged is a 4.2-liter supercharged V8 engine developed by Jaguar Car Factory, which can output 390 horsepower and the maximum torque of 550Nm. Driven by the brand-new ZF six-speed automatic transmission, the Range Rover Supercharged can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in about 6 seconds, and the top speed is 225 km/h. Of course, the conversion function of this ZF gearbox can also let the owner experience the shifting pleasure of the handcrafted car. In addition, when encountering the terrain that must be heavily off-road, the automatic slow driving mode can also make the Range Rover Supercharged get out safely.

　

Land Rover Range Rover waded through mountains and rivers.

　　Since we talked about getting out safely, of course, we have to talk about the maneuverability of Range Rover Supercharged. The car body structure design of Range Rover Supercharged is taken from Discovery 3/LR3, another car model owned by Land Rover. Although the wheelbase has been reduced by as much as six inches, the front and rear independent double wishbone suspension with pneumatic suspension has really improved the car body shaking. In addition, through the dynamic feedback system, the car owner can really grasp the road conditions. Therefore, Range Rover Supercharged can not only conquer difficult off-road terrain, but also become a beast that devours the road. However, in order to find out the best setting, the Land Rover team also put Range Rover Supercharged on the famous Nürburgring track for testing. After completing this work, Land Rover also put Range Rover Supercharged on 20-inch shoes, which were equipped with Brembo front brakes with four-point calipers to ensure the braking performance of Range Rover Supercharged.

　

　　As for the interior part, Land Rover certainly didn’t ignore the compliment of "Rolls-Royce in SUV". In order to present the luxurious car room of Range Rover, Land Rover uses a large number of high-grade leather, wooden decorative plates and aluminum alloy as the main materials for interior decoration. The moderate support and softness of the seat bring great comfort to passengers. The button configuration on the center console is also quite neat, and the multi-function steering wheel allows the owner. In addition, the fixed-speed navigation system reduces the burden of long-distance driving, and the use of xenon headlights keeps Range Rover Supercharged in blazing with anger.

September 21st is the United Nations International Day of Peace. On September 19th, just two days before the International Peace Day, the "Contact Group on Ukraine" led by the United States held another meeting at the American military base in Ramstein, Germany. This is the 15th meeting of the group since its establishment one year ago, and the focus of discussion is still on strengthening military assistance to Ukraine. The United States says it will train Ukrainian pilots to fly F-16 fighters at home. Germany announced that it would add 400 million euros worth of military support to Ukraine to purchase ammunition, generators and other equipment. The Czech Republic, Denmark, the Netherlands and other countries have also indicated that they will further provide weapons to Ukraine.

In the face of western governments’ increasing military aid, European folks have made a completely different voice. During the week from September 18 to 24, 17 anti-war organizations in Germany joined forces to hold "Peace Week" activities in various parts of Germany to protest against the Western supply of weapons to Ukraine to ignite the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and demand an immediate ceasefire.

German people WolfgangWe are here (Berlin) demanding an immediate ceasefire. As pacifists, we oppose NATO and military means. Military means is not the solution to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The Russian-Ukrainian conflict can only be resolved through diplomatic means.

The west may not be able to support Ukrainian ammunition demand.

Since the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The United States and western countries have constantly promised that "as long as necessary, military aid to Ukraine will stick to the end." But can the United States and the West really do it?

The British "Economist" recently wrote that although these promises sound "like iron", it depends on two uncertain variables: first, whether the West has the ability to provide enough weapons and ammunition for the Ukrainian army, and second, whether the current political will can be sustained.

For the first point, the argument used by western media is that the total gross national product of NATO member countries is 12 times that of Russia, and its economic and military strength is far above that of Russia. But I’m afraid the fact is not as simple as the western imagination.

Estonian Defense Ministry official Cousty Salm pointed out that even in Estonia, where the production cost is relatively low, the cost of manufacturing each new shell is about 5,000 to 6,000 US dollars; The cost in Russia is only 60,000 rubles, or about 620 dollars. This wide cost gap makes the economic advantages of western countries disappear. At the recent annual meeting of NATO Chief of Staff, Admiral Rob Bauer, Chairman of NATO Military Committee, admitted that Ukraine’s long-term demand for weapons and ammunition exceeded NATO’s capacity, and the rising price of weapons and ammunition also increased the procurement cost.

Rob Bauer, Chairman of NATO Military CommitteeThe defense ministers expressed concern about the backward production capacity of the whole alliance. The delivery time of weapons is constantly delayed, and the prices of equipment and ammunition are rising. Now the exact same equipment is more and more expensive. Ukraine needs a huge amount of weapons and ammunition. This has been the case in previous wars, which is not new in itself. But the scale and usage of Ukraine exceed our production capacity.

In addition, the military equipment delivered by the West seems to be very problematic. Not long ago, Ukraine rejected 10 "Leopard" tanks delivered by Germany with great disgust, on the grounds that their "technical state is not ideal". Military experts said that the "Leopard -1" main battle tank was the technical level in the 1960s. The "Leopard -1A5" provided by Germany to Uzbekistan has been in service for a long time, and after a long period of storage, the stability of its technical state has been greatly reduced. In the eyes of outsiders, western military aid to Ukraine is more like taking the opportunity to consume its old weapons inventory.

The Russian-Ukrainian conflict spilled over, and the people opposed the continued aid to weapons.

On September 22nd, a research report released by the Swiss National Bank showed that the Russian-Ukrainian conflict slowed down the economic growth of the European Union and "substantially" pushed up the inflation of the whole Europe. In the medium and long term, the negative impact of this conflict on the real economy may be even greater. "In one to two years, this impact may increase by about two times." Among them, Germany is the most affected.

As the largest economy in Europe, Germany has gone into recession because of the energy crisis caused by sanctions against Russia with the United States and the protectionist policy of its allies making huge war money. The economic forecast report released by the European Union this month shows that Germany’s economy will shrink by 0.4% this year, making it the only country with negative economic growth among the big EU countries. Hong Ke, a member of the German Bundestag, said that Germany’s traditional economic development model has been destroyed.

German left-wing MP HongkeThis is mainly because of economic sanctions, sanctions on energy, natural gas and oil, and Germany needs a lot of energy. Germany’s economic model is a combination of cheap energy, highly skilled workers and exports. Now Germany has blocked the cheap natural gas and oil from Russia, which need to be bought at a very expensive price in the world market, such as shale gas from the United States. This has a very serious impact on the German economy.

On the other hand, the protracted conflict has made people more and more disgusted. Gunnar Lin Deman, a member of the Berlin Regional Council, said that the German people paid three times the price for this war. At the same time, the German people are increasingly worried that the war may spread to themselves. From the initial field hospitals, to the "Leopard" tanks, and then to the Patriot missile system, the weapons provided by Germany to Ukraine have gradually escalated, causing public concern.

According to a recent survey, more than half of the German people are opposed to providing "Taurus" cruise missiles to Ukraine. German parliamentarian Hongke said that with the escalation of the war, the people’s attitude towards assisting Ukraine with weapons has changed.

German left-wing MP HongkeI am totally opposed to providing any weapons, especially more and more advanced weapons. Taurus is a cruise missile with a range of 500 kilometers. Now this topic has caused a heated discussion among the German public, and most Germans are obviously opposed. People’s attitude towards the delivery of weapons has changed, which was not the case before. Now people find that as long as more weapons are delivered, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine will be endless.

If there is any change in the United States, the European Union will be afraid of being alone

In addition to Germany, more and more countries find that the longer the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the more difficult it is to protect their own interests. Poland, Ukraine’s "staunchest" ally, has loosened its position. The Polish Prime Minister said on the 20th that Poland will no longer provide weapons to Ukraine, but instead focus on increasing its own weapons inventory. The reason for all this is that the European Union has lifted the ban on the sale of Ukrainian agricultural products, and Ukrainian food has flooded into the EU, with neighboring Poland bearing the brunt.

However, the biggest variable is still in the United States. Next year is an election year in the United States, and aid to Ukraine is rapidly becoming a focus issue. The Republican Party of the United States has gradually begun to question the necessity of aid to Ukraine, and some Democrats believe that European allies should be "more active."

The British "Economist" reported that if the United States terminates its support for Ukraine, it will be difficult for Europe to raise enough cash and weapons to arm Ukraine alone.

Guosen Securities recently released a review of biodiesel industry, and analyzed that the domestic demand for biodiesel is expected to increase after the pilot application of biodiesel. The following is a summary of the research report: On April 2, 2024, the Comprehensive Department of the National Energy Administration publicized the pilot application of biodiesel in China.

Guosen Securities recently released a review of biodiesel industry, and analyzed that the domestic demand for biodiesel is expected to increase after the pilot application of biodiesel.

The following is a summary of the research report:

On April 2, 2024, the Comprehensive Department of National Energy Administration publicized the pilot project of domestic biodiesel promotion and application.

Guoxin Chemical’s viewpoint:

1) Promoting the application of biodiesel in China is helpful for recycling waste and accelerating the green and low-carbon energy transformation. Biodiesel is a kind of renewable energy produced from waste oil and other biomass, and it is an internationally recognized green and clean fuel. In September 2023, the National Energy Administration organized an on-site meeting on the pilot project of biodiesel promotion and application in Shanghai; In November 2023, the National Energy Administration issued the Notice of the National Energy Administration on Organizing the Pilot Demonstration of Biodiesel Popularization and Application, and organized the pilot application and review of biodiesel popularization and application; In April, 2024, the National Energy Administration announced 22 pilot projects for the popularization and application of biodiesel, including 19 cities/districts, as well as China Ship Fuel Co., Ltd., China Petrochemical Fuel Oil Sales Co., Ltd. and Shandong Expressway Group.

2) The content of the pilot demonstration is diverse, which accumulates experience for continuing to expand the popularization and application of biodiesel in China. Biodiesel pilot demonstration includes vehicle biodiesel, marine biodiesel and others. The pilot demonstration of vehicle biodiesel includes regional popularization and application, industry popularization and application, enterprise popularization and application, and expressway popularization and application; The pilot demonstration of marine biodiesel includes the promotion and application of bonded areas and free trade zones, and the promotion and application of rivers and lakes. Governments and enterprises at all levels have further expanded the application scenarios of biodiesel in China by carrying out pilot demonstrations on the promotion and application of various types of biodiesel, and accumulated experience for continuing to expand the promotion and application of green liquid fuels such as biodiesel.

3) In 2023, the EU initiated the review of biodiesel for many times. In 2023, domestic biodiesel production declined and exports were under pressure. In April 2023, ISCC initiated the review of biodiesel certification enterprises in China; In August, 2023, the European Commission launched an anti-circumvention investigation on biodiesel originating in Indonesia and exported to Europe via China and Britain. On December 20th, 2023, the European Commission initiated an anti-dumping investigation on biodiesel products originating in China, and it is expected that a preliminary ruling will be made 7-8 months after the case is filed. According to Zhuo Chuang Information, the domestic biodiesel production in 2023 was 857,000 tons, down 33.5% year-on-year; Exports were 1.95 million tons, up 8.7% year-on-year, of which 1.867 million tons were exported to European countries, accounting for 95.7%, but 775,000 tons were exported in the second half of the year, down 34.0% from the first half.

4) Domestic pilot application will help boost domestic demand for biodiesel, so we need to pay attention to the specific implementation of the government and enterprises in the future. From the government’s point of view, it is an effective way to help realize the goal of "double carbon" to carry out pilot demonstration of biodiesel popularization and application; From the enterprise’s point of view, it is imperative to actively expand the domestic demand for biodiesel in the current situation of weak export demand and price to the EU. From the price point of view, the current domestic biodiesel price is 6800-7000 yuan/ton, while the current market price of 0# diesel is 7700-7800 yuan/ton (including tax), so biodiesel is more cost-effective in the short term. However, according to the promotion and application of B5 biodiesel in Shanghai, in the fourth quarter of 2023, the Shanghai Development and Reform Commission arranged a subsidy fund of 41.86 million yuan for biodiesel production from kitchen waste oil. We expect that the subsidy amount per ton of biodiesel will be around 1000 yuan. Although the prices of biodiesel and diesel oil are upside down at present, the prices of refined oil are relatively high, and the profitability of biodiesel is limited. Therefore, it is still necessary to pay attention to the specific implementation of biodiesel promotion by the government and enterprises in the future.

5) Investment suggestion: It is suggested to pay attention to Zhuoyue Xinneng, the leader of domestic biodiesel industry. At present, the company’s biodiesel production capacity is 500,000 tons, and the bio-based materials production capacity is 90,000 tons.

Risk warning: the risk of a sharp drop in the price of biodiesel, the risk that the demand for biodiesel in the EU is less than expected, and the risk of changes in biodiesel policies in the EU and China. (Guosen Securities Yang Lin, Xue Cong)

　　In recent years, "big data" has gradually moved from academic concept to industrial application, and has become the "window" for the Internet industry to compete for each other. However, although there are endless ideas, research and plans about big data in the industry, most companies have not actually enjoyed the change dividend brought by big data.

　　Nowadays, with the maturity of face recognition, artificial intelligence, cloud computing and other technologies, big data applications have also landed and begun to reshape existing business models.

　　Fashion can also be customized.

　　The favorite color of young people born after 1995 in China is "unsaturated black" with RGB value of 22/20/24. When buying clothes, the colors they most often match with black are "red, yellow and blue". The favorite clothing materials are cotton, wool and leather, and the favorite colors are printing, graffiti and letters … …

　　The above conclusions come from the "China Post-90s Fashion Color Report" jointly released by Tencent and e-commerce platform Vipshop. Relying on Tencent’s AI (artificial intelligence) face recognition and image processing technology, based on Tencent’s QQ space 2 trillion social media photos and Vipshop’s 100 million e-commerce users’ sales data, the two companies jointly "calculated" China’s "post-1995" dressing preferences.

　　It is not easy to extract the "fashion factor" from 2 trillion photos and 100 million e-commerce user data. According to Liang Zhu, vice president of Tencent Group and head of Youtu Lab, finding these popular colors needs to overcome many technical difficulties. For example, the photos uploaded by users in QQ space are mainly life photos, and the background and colors are very complicated. In order to achieve accurate color acquisition, its technical team uses many artificial intelligence algorithms, including human body detection and clothes segmentation, to separate the human body and clothes in the photos from the background, and its pixel segmentation accuracy reaches 95%.

　　It is understood that the two companies jointly invited designers to design fashion clothes based on the calculation results, and plan to sell them online on the Vipshop e-commerce platform this fall.

　　"Face recognition and image processing technology based on machine learning has always been a hot technology in the future, and its application range is very wide. At present, Tencent Youtu’s AI image recognition technology is very mature and can be applied in different scenarios. " Beam-column representation.

　　No longer "looking at the number and sighing"

　　In the past, big data applications were mostly confined to the marketing level. Its essence was to use the advantages of "big data" to analyze market factors such as user behavior by traditional computing methods, which was not a real big data application. In the face of massive and precious data, it is often impossible to really use it, and it can only be "sighing and sighing".

　　Nowadays, the application of big data has broken through the limitations of data capture and statistical methods in the past, and has begun to penetrate into all aspects of the industrial chain, becoming a "closed-loop ecology" that runs through big data.

　　In the retail field, following the concept of "new retail" put forward by Alibaba last year, at the beginning of the new year, Alibaba Group signed a comprehensive strategic cooperation agreement with Bailian Group, announcing the joint efforts to explore and develop a new retail model. According to Ali, based on big data and Internet technology, the two sides will cooperate in six areas: all-format integration and innovation, new retail technology research and development, supply chain integration, member system interoperability, payment financial interconnection and logistics system coordination.

　　"The new retail is to use the Internet and big data to ‘ People, goods and fields ’ And other traditional business elements, including the reconstruction of production processes, the reconstruction of the relationship between merchants and consumers, and the reconstruction of consumer experience. In the future, business will no longer be divided into online and offline, and there will be no difference between virtual entities. " Zhang Yong, CEO of Alibaba Group said.

　　In the field of household appliances, according to the newly released White Paper on Smart Air Conditioning Market in China in 2016, the domestic smart air conditioning industry has been improved in manufacturing, channels, services, resources and application level of new technologies in 2016, especially the introduction and resource sharing of cloud and big data technology, which has laid a solid foundation for resource sharing and service innovation in related industries.

　　Take Haier, a home appliance company, as an example. Relying on big data, the air conditioners produced by Haier not only built an intelligent energy-saving system, but also applied big data to the fields of heating and power supply. In Jiangsu, Haier’s air-conditioning cloud data has been effectively connected with the State Grid, so as to adjust the peak power load of residents, reduce the peak-valley difference of the grid by 18.47%, and greatly ease the operating pressure of the grid.

　　Realize "personalized mass production"

　　In fact, the continuous application of big data is solving the contradiction between "personalization" and "mass production" in the past, which has brought about changes in business models.

　　In the past, mass-produced products could hardly meet the individual needs of customers. Even with massive data as the marketing basis, we could only subdivide the needs of users as much as possible, and then mass-produce in each subdivision. With the penetration of Internet, big data, cloud planning and other technologies, it is possible to meet personalized and customized needs, and personalized mass production is being tried and explored. According to Chen Feifei, senior director of Vipshop, it is a bold cross-border innovation to apply big data to the fashion industry and conduct e-commerce operation. "Let photo big data, sales big data, artificial intelligence collide with fashion trends, connect data with art, and provide more inspiration and possibilities for creation in the fashion field." Chen Feifei said.

　　This attempt has brought obvious changes to the production mode of fashion industry, that is, from the former designer-led mode to the user-centered personalized mass production mode. Consumption data will become the most valuable resource in the fashion industry ecological chain. Whoever has more accurate user data will have more market opportunities.

　　Similarly, in the field of household appliances, Haier air conditioning can simulate 30 body parts, 20 metabolic modes, 162 neuron sensors and 17 warm and cold environments through joint research and development of intelligent bionic human technology. At the same time, relying on bionic people, we have developed original technologies and products such as natural wind, self-cleaning and ion air supply to realize personalized energy saving for thousands of people and make every air conditioner produced in batches "different".

　　In the field of medical and health care, because of the different disease history and genetic composition of each person, the standardized treatment scheme for diseases in the past is more like a "stopgap measure" under technical restrictions. Nowadays, with the breakthrough of medical sensors, monitors and diagnostic technologies, patient data has become complete and detailed. On this basis, the artificial intelligence system can comb the medical records, genome sequences and other health behavior data of millions of patients, so as to match the personalized treatment plan.

　　Various trends show that this change in business model is rapidly infiltrating into various industries. The universal landing of "personalized mass production" will also be possible with the support of big data.

　　Xinhua News Agency, Washington, January 20th　(International observation) Biden’s "political achievements" in power for one year are hard to be recognized by the people.

　　Xinhua News Agency reporter Deng Xianlai

　　US President Biden celebrated the first anniversary of his administration on the 20th. Over the past year, the Biden administration’s achievements in preventing and controlling the epidemic, reviving the economy, easing social contradictions and diplomatic fields have been lackluster. The series of problems he promised to solve have not only improved little, but even got worse.

　　Policy obstruction

　　When Biden came to power, he made scientific prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic and returning to normal life as soon as possible as a policy priority. He invited Anthony Fauci, an infectious disease expert, to be the president’s chief medical adviser, and prompted Congress to pass a $1.9 trillion economic aid plan to rapidly promote vaccination. These measures were recognized by many voters. However, since then, in order to curb the epidemic rebound caused by COVID-19 mutant strains such as Delta and Omicron, the White House issued a compulsory vaccine order for employees of large private enterprises, which was strongly resisted by the Republican ruling state and some business groups. The US Supreme Court recently ruled that the injunction could not be implemented, which frustrated Biden’s government policy.

　　On the economic front, although Biden pushed Congress to pass a large-scale infrastructure construction bill, problems such as high inflation, supply chain bottlenecks and labor shortage continue to be difficult to solve, and the road to economic recovery in the United States is full of thorns. According to data from the US Department of Labor, the US consumer price index rose by 7% year-on-year in December last year, the largest year-on-year increase in nearly 40 years. In the same month, the number of new jobs in the non-agricultural sector was only 199,000, and the number of unemployed people due to the epidemic was still as high as 3.1 million. The employment situation is still grim.

　　Politically, the struggle between the two parties in the United States and social tears have not eased, which has led Biden to fail to achieve policy goals such as easing racial conflicts, controlling the proliferation of guns, controlling border immigrants, and stopping violent law enforcement through congressional legislation. Recently, the two parties in Congress launched a fierce attack on two electoral reform bills proposed by Democrats to protect voters’ voting rights. The controversy over election reform may further deepen some conservative Republican voters’ doubts about Biden’s administration’s "ruling legitimacy."

　　On the diplomatic front, Biden promised to abolish a series of unilateralist policies during the Trump administration and prove to allies that "the United States is back." However, in diplomacy, he "broke more and established less" and lacked constructive policies. Some analysts believe that although Biden fulfilled his promise to withdraw troops from Afghanistan, the withdrawal plan was sloppy, the process was chaotic and the consequences were serious, which was widely criticized; He emphasized stability and predictability in relations with Russia, but ignored Russia’s security concerns on issues related to Russia’s core interests such as the Ukrainian crisis, which led to the continuous deterioration of US-Russia relations. He promised to let the United States return to the Iranian nuclear deal, but he did not show enough flexibility in the negotiations with Iran, so the prospect of reaching an agreement between the two sides is still unclear.

　　Difficult to be recognized

　　When Biden took office, he made many promises: to cure American "democracy", to defeat the COVID-19 epidemic, to solve deep-rooted racial and economic problems, and to restore America’s position in the world. However, one year later, his performance in preventing and controlling epidemic situation, curbing inflation, and policy legislation has not been recognized by the American people.

　　According to a poll released by Quinnipiac University recently, voters’ satisfaction with Biden’s administration has dropped to 33%. The American media pointed out that Biden broke the record of popular votes in the 2020 US presidential election, but now he has become one of the most unpopular US presidents.

　　Bill galston, a researcher at the Brookings Institution in the United States, said that Biden failed to meet the expectations of voters, and his anti-epidemic performance was particularly disappointing. At the same time, the chaos of Afghanistan’s withdrawal has also seriously damaged the image of Biden’s government.

　　This is a photo of local residents and Taliban in Kandahar, Afghanistan on August 31, 2021. Kenneth Mackenzie, commander of the US Central Command, announced on August 30, 2021 that the US military has completed the task of withdrawing from Afghanistan, and the US military operations in Afghanistan for nearly 20 years have officially ended. (Xinhua News Agency, photo by Sanaula)

　　Sarah Langweil, a Republican strategist in the United States, found through a one-year interview that Biden’s rating by voters continued to decline, and even "failed", and there were many democratic voters who were dissatisfied with Biden. Langweil believes that the survey results reflect people’s general dissatisfaction with the long-term persistence of the epidemic and rising inflation.

　　The Atlantic Monthly recently pointed out that compared with the consistent strong dissatisfaction of Republican voters with Biden, the rapid decline of Biden’s support rate among Democrats and independent voters deserves more attention. The internal differences and conflicts among the Democratic voters are becoming more and more obvious. Some voters think that the Democratic Party is not pushing the New Deal fast enough, while others disapprove of the ideas that the Democratic Party is pursuing at present.

　　Division remains the same

　　In recent years, the partisan struggle in the United States has become increasingly acute, and the opposition among the people has become increasingly fierce. The riots on Capitol Hill at the beginning of last year marked a new high in the top-down division of American society. One year after Biden took office, this polarization and tearing has not only not eased, but has further intensified.

　　Republicans totally deny Biden’s policy, American media are keen to play up opposing feelings, and former President Trump still has influence in the Republican Party, all of which are the reasons why the United States is deeply mired in opposition and tearing.

　　On January 6, US President Biden delivered a speech at the Capitol in Washington to commemorate the first anniversary of the riots on Capitol Hill. (Xinhua News Agency, Pool photo, photo by Michael Reynolds)

　　Rick Taylor, a Republican strategist, believes that Biden’s Democratic Party’s dominant position in Congress is extremely weak, and it is usually difficult to realize its policy proposition through legislation, and the presidential executive order he signed lacks overwhelming persuasion. This means that it is difficult for Biden to have the ability to unite the United States.

　　Analysts pointed out that over the past year, the division of the United States has been intensifying, Biden’s patience with Republicans has almost run out, and the two parties have been arguing over the reasons for the division. Some people even question whether it is necessary for the two parties to have a consensus. In this case, it seems destined to be an unreachable dream to bridge differences and unite the United States.
