Recently, the Anti-smuggling Bureau of Huangpu Customs, together with the Third Branch of the Securities Crime Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, the Economic Investigation Corps of the Hunan Provincial Public Security Department and the Yueyang Public Security Bureau of Hunan Province, launched a special campaign to crack down on smuggling and fraudulent tax refund, and simultaneously carried out arrests and investigations in Dongguan, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Yueyang and Jinjiang. After preliminary investigation, criminal gangs were suspected of smuggling imported LCD screens and integrated circuits with a case value of 756 million yuan, falsely issuing special invoices for value-added tax and defrauding export tax rebate of 6.135 billion yuan, with a total case value of 6.891 billion yuan.Institution: The battery price stabilized in November, and it is expected to rise slightly in 2025. On December 12, according to the latest research of TrendForce Jibang Consulting, in November 2024, the sales of electric vehicles in China continued to increase, which boosted the demand for power batteries, and the price of Ferrous lithium phosphate batteries remained stable, while the ternary batteries declined slightly. The demand for batteries in the energy storage market maintained the peak season characteristics, and with the price advantage of large-capacity batteries, the proportion of shipments increased. However, the average price of energy storage batteries continued to decline in November due to the slowdown in demand for orders at the end of the year. The agency expects that the price of some lithium battery materials may rise slightly in the peak season of 2025, which is expected to repair the serious losses of the company in the early stage. However, due to the fact that the relationship between supply and demand has not changed from surplus to shortage, the expected increase in material prices is limited, and battery manufacturers actively control costs, the battery price trend will be stable next year.The main fuel contract rose by 4.00% in the day and is now reported at 3188.00 yuan/ton.

(China News Network)Intel: Breakthrough progress has been made in chip interconnection, and the inter-line capacitance has been reduced by 25%. Recently, Intel OEM announced a major breakthrough in on-chip interconnection technology. The latest subtractive Ruthenium interconnection technology of the company can reduce the inter-line capacitance by up to 25%, effectively improving the on-chip interconnection. According to reports, the subtractive ruthenium interconnection technology has achieved great progress in interconnection miniaturization by using ruthenium, a new, key and alternative metallization material, and using thin film resistivity and airgap. This process does not need an expensive photolithographic air gap exclusion zone around the via, and it can also avoid using a self-aligned via that is selectively etched. When the spacing is less than or equal to 25 nm, the air gap realized by reducing ruthenium interconnection technology can reduce the capacitance between lines by up to 25%, which can be used as a metallization scheme to replace copper damascene process in closely spaced layers. It is reported that this solution is expected to be applied in the future process nodes of Intel OEM. (Sina Technology)
