    Yesterday morning, Robin Li, the chairman and CEO of Baidu, was searched for by the cold water incident.
    At the 2019 Baidu AI Developers Conference, Robin Li opened his speech.
    A man with a badge at the venue suddenly rushed onto the stage and poured a bottle of mineral water on Robin Li’s head.
    Netizens have different opinions and attitudes on this matter.
    In the comments criticizing the perpetrator and praising Robin Li for not being surprised, there are more netizens' concerns and doubts about Baidu.
    From the outbreak of the Wei Zexi incident to the discovery of the gray industrial chain of search engine advertising, Baidu’s business profit model was seen as lacking social responsibility, ethics, and profiteering.
    The lack of corporate social responsibility has become the focus of criticism from netizens.
    It is not only Internet companies that are awakened by cold water.
    In the highly competitive paint industry, it is also necessary to pour a few pots of cold water to cool down.
    The first basin of cold water, talk about safety.
    Water is a weapon for extinguishing fires, but the aftermath of the 3.
    21 Tian Jiayi Chemical Co.
    , Ltd.
    explosion in Jiangsu Xiangshui that killed 78 people has not ceased.
    China and Foreign Coatings.
    com published an article "One accident in three days, chemical companies should not make up for it".
    There were 5 consecutive accidents 15 days after 3.
    21.
    For many chemical companies, it is a good story to make up for it, but safe production.
    The cost of life cannot always be used to wake up.
    The painful lessons made the country and the localities attach great importance to the issue of production safety, and deal with it at various levels.
    On April 4, the Yancheng City government announced the closure of the Xiangshui Chemical Park, and nearly 100 chemical companies in the park were closed or relocated.
    Subsequently, many regions have successively issued remediation plans for the chemical industry and chemical enterprises, and some regions have even proposed the establishment of "chemical-free zones" to raise the barriers to entry into chemical parks.
    The chemical parks and enterprises everywhere are almost full of grief and rumors.
    However, so far, explosion accidents still occur frequently.
    Companies are indifferent to the safety and legal system.
    They do not implement the supervision instructions of the supervisory authority.
    They are greedy for short-term gains.
    Without the conditions for safe production, they violate the regulations and frequently cause accidents.
    Behind every security incident is the fragmentation of countless families.
    Security is no small matter, but the company does not pay attention to it fundamentally.   Water can extinguish fires, but it can't wash away people's scars and worries about the safety of chemical companies.
    Therefore, safe production is not only the responsibility of the coating company, but also the obligation of the company and the basis for sound development.
      The second basin of cold water, talk about solid waste disposal and VOCs treatment.
      As we all know, improper treatment of solid waste and VOCs will directly pollute the air, soil and water sources, and affect people's living environment and their own health.
    As a branch of the fine chemical industry, the coating industry, solvent additives, harmful substances and volatile pollution, and solid waste treatment are the focus of environmental protection.
      Ai Tubang Baidu found that reports by the masses, random disposal of solid waste, illegal landfill without any pollution prevention measures, etc.
    abound.
    Under the high-pressure supervision of domestic environmental protection, some companies still ignore government documents and related regulations.
    On June 23 this year, Yangfan New Materials announced that the company had violated the provisions of Article 28 Paragraph 1 of the "Prohibition of Random Dumping, Stacking, or Dangerous Throwing*" of the "Regulations on the Prevention and Control of Solid* Pollution in Zhejiang Province".
    The Shangyu District Environmental Protection Bureau imposed an administrative penalty of 85,000 yuan and ordered immediate correction of the illegal behavior.
    Companies similar to Yangfan New Materials that have been punished even include some well-known companies.
      From the perspective of corporate responsibility or social responsibility, it is worthy of our reflection.
      The "Comprehensive Treatment Plan for Volatile Organic Compounds in Key Industries" (hereinafter referred to as the "Governance Plan") issued on the official website of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment on July 3 requires that enterprises should vigorously promote the use of low VOCs content wood coatings, vehicle coatings, machinery equipment coatings, and container coatings As well as protective coatings for buildings and structures, etc.
    , in industries with mature technologies, promote the use of low-VOCs content inks and adhesives, and key areas will be basically completed by the end of 2020.
    Encourage the acceleration of the development and production of low-VOCs content coatings, inks, adhesives, etc.
      The "Governance Plan" also proposes to speed up the formulation and revision of the quality standards for products containing VOCs.
    Before the end of 2019, the technical requirements for low-VOCs content coating products will be introduced, and the formulation and revision of building wall coatings, wood coatings, vehicle coatings, and industrial protective coatings will be harmful Substance limit standards, formulate mandatory standards for the limit of volatile organic compounds for inks, adhesives, and cleaning agents.
    Accelerate the formulation and revision of emission standards for the VOCs industry, and strive to complete the formulation of air pollutant emission standards for pesticides, automobile coating, container manufacturing, packaging and printing, furniture manufacturing, electronics industry and other industries by the end of June 2020.
    Establish VOCs monitoring and analysis method standards and technical requirements for monitoring equipment that are compatible with emission standards, and accelerate the introduction of technical specifications for continuous monitoring of VOCs emissions from fixed sources and technical specifications for portable monitoring of VOCs.
    Encourage local governments to set stricter local emission standards.
      Therefore, the solid waste disposal, VOCs treatment, and coating companies should check and correct themselves first, are they all done?   The third basin of cold water, talk about the quality of water-based paint products.
      The country promotes the process of changing oil to water.
    Water-based paint uses water as a diluent.
    It is more environmentally friendly and safer.
    It is sought after by consumers.
    Water-based paint is ushering in a strong momentum of development.
    However, some companies have not started to improve product quality, but sold fake paint.
    , Shoddy, fancy propaganda and speculation concepts have seriously harmed the interests of consumers.
      On June 28, Ketian water-based paint was listed on the "2018-2019 China Top Ten Quality Black List of Home Furnishings", which particularly attracted the attention of the coatings industry.
    The quality problems of Ketian's water-based paint are as follows: "On April 30, 2019, the Shenzhen Municipal Market Supervision Administration issued a spot check notice showing that the inspected unit was'Water-based Ketian Home Decoration Materials Museum, Matian Street, Guangming New District, Shenzhen.
    ' The production unit is'Lanzhou Ketian Environmental Protection and Energy Conservation Technology Co.
    , Ltd.
    ' and the specification model is '2.
    5L/barrel'.
    A'water-based run color wood transparent primer' was detected as'total volatile organic compounds, g/L'.
    Qualified.
    One year ago, on May 22, 2018, in a sampling notice issued by the Shenzhen Municipal Market Supervision Administration, three water-based Ketian water-based paints were found to be unqualified for total volatile organic compounds.
    "The products have been labelled as non-toxic.
    Ketian's water-based Ketian has repeatedly been exposed to toxic, so he used the product on his face.   Of course, we can’t generalize.
    In the water-based paint field, with the introduction of water-based paint related standards and the regularization trend of the water-based paint market, a large number of national paint brands such as Sankeshu, Zhanchen, Chenyang, and Chenguang have the advantages Highlighted, the establishment of factories to expand production, research and development of competitive products, excellence in quality, market share steadily rising, business is booming.
    In contrast, companies relying on low-price competition, lack of core technology, and shoddy coating companies will be completely eliminated and disappear into fierce competition.
      What is our solid support to deal with future risks and challenges? Quality is king and technological innovation is the only way to remain invincible and grasp the initiative in development.
      The paint industry observer Zhao Zhongpeng believes that the current market uncertainty and the intensified industry reshuffle are forcing every paint company to seek greater development space and sustainable business power through reforms.
    However, enterprises must fundamentally understand that they have social attributes and must assume the obligations, missions and responsibilities entrusted by the society in order to develop healthily, stably and sustainably.
      The Chinese coatings industry needs precipitation and reflection, rooting and accumulating energy.
    Therefore, pour more pots of cold water so that we are sober and sober, and better face the road to be taken in the future!
