11 criminal suspects were arrested, more than 200 boxes of counterfeit Wuliangye, Maotai and Yanghe liquors were seized, more than 100,000 bottle caps, anti-counterfeiting labels, and packaging materials were seized, and the amount involved was as high as more than 50 million. In April this year, the Jiaojiang District Market Supervision Bureau of Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province, and the Jiaojiang District Public Security Bureau jointly broke down an industrial chain that produced and sold counterfeit high-end brand liquor. As a typical case of the "Iron Fist" action of the State Administration of Market Supervision in the field of people's livelihood in 2021, the conclusion of this case strongly reflects the role of the "Iron Fist" action in deterring lawbreakers and warning operators.

Yan Jun, director of the Law Enforcement and Inspection Bureau of the State Administration for Market Regulation, said in an interview with a reporter from the China Economic Network that an "iron" wrist and handling an "iron case" are one of the characteristics of the "iron fist" action, that is, to embody the "iron" requirement that violators who dare not commit crimes again.

Directly hit the 8 "troubles" to make the supervision grow teeth

"In response to the people's 'urgent and difficult to look forward to' troubles, the State Administration for Market Regulation organized a nationwide 'iron fist' action in April this year to let the supervision grow teeth and make consumers smile." Yu Jun, director of the Information Department of the State Administration of Market Regulation, said that in recent years, it is not uncommon for consumers to hate such phenomena as "shanzhai" food, "divine doctors" and "divine medicines" false advertisements, intermediary fees, strip steel, and "black gas cylinders". The reason for this situation is that on the one hand, the contradiction between China's market supervision resources and the objects of supervision is more prominent, on the other hand, the punishment of some illegal acts that endanger people's livelihood is not enough. How to further solve these troubles of the masses?

"In this regard, the 'Iron Fist' action focused on 8 types of key violations in the field of people's livelihood, including the sale of livestock products with excessive drug residues, aquatic products, and meat that had not been inspected and quarantined or detected with 'clenbuterol'; adding drugs to foods that claimed functions such as weight loss, sugar reduction, blood pressure reduction, and lipid reduction; production and sale of inferior steel bars and cables that 'cut corners'; production and sale of inferior children's toys; intermediary agencies ' charging fees'; refurbishment of 'black gas cylinders'; 'cottage' liquor drinks and seasonal foods in rural markets; 'divine doctors' and 'miracle drugs' and other false advertisements." Yu Jun said.

Yu Jun said that the key to the "iron fist" action is to "shake the finger into a fist", form a joint force, in the case of limited law enforcement resources, the use of new models of comprehensive law enforcement of market supervision, give play to the system integration effect, concentrate on handling cases, obtain the maximum law enforcement effect, do a good job of daily supervision and law enforcement case handling, give full play to the network transaction monitoring and 12315 platform and other technical support, strengthen the cooperation between the upper and lower levels, interregional market supervision departments.

Illegal drugs and "black gas cylinders" that endanger people's livelihood will be beaten when they appear

"I personally tested the product, lost 33 pounds in 26 days after childbirth, promised an invalid refund; lost 52 pounds after childbirth, and received orders at any time; tried to install fat burning orders, one effect, any physique package thin ..." This is a typical case of the "iron fist" action, the market supervision bureau of Tongling City, Anhui Province, received a consumer complaint report. Consumers said that on the Kuaishou platform through WeChat transfer, they purchased a trial weight loss candy, and a series of uncomfortable reactions appeared after taking it.

After testing, this slimming sugar contains the illegal drug sibutramine. According to clues, law enforcement officers destroyed 2 production and processing dens, seized 20 sets of tablet and capsule production equipment, and involved more than 300 kilograms of tablet candy and raw materials, with a value of more than 10 million yuan.

Zhang Shige, chief pharmacist of the Department of Pharmacy of Peking University's Fourth Clinical Medical College, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, and expert of the China Over-the-Counter Drug Association, said in an interview with China Economic Network that sibutramine will aggravate depression, anxiety, tension, dementia, and can raise blood pressure and accelerate heart rhythm, which has long been banned by the state.

"Scared the baby to death, I took this diet pill." Fortunately, the regulatory authorities intervened in time, otherwise how many people would have collapsed their bodies because of this. Chengdu consumer Liu Liqun said so.

Hit it out of the box! It is the resolute attitude of the "Iron Fist" action to illegal acts that endanger people's livelihood. In the 8 key areas, the renovation and sale of "black gas cylinders" also seriously endangers the production and life of the people.

It is understood that by the end of 2020, there are about 179 million gas cylinders in use nationwide, of which more than 150 million are liquefied petroleum gas cylinders that are closely related to the production and life of the people. The filling process of gas cylinders is complex, the filling medium has a certain pressure, and most of them are flammable and explosive, the danger is high and the risk is large, and the "black gas cylinder" refers to the refurbished scrap gas cylinder or the gas cylinder from an unknown source, which is more dangerous.

On January 28 this year, according to the report of the masses, the law enforcement personnel of the Funan County Market Supervision Bureau found during the inspection that the bottled liquefied petroleum gas sold by Tao Moumou was not only seriously oversized, but also had adulteration problems. "An over-packed gas cylinder is the equivalent of a 'bomb.'" The person in charge of the law enforcement inspection of the State Administration of Market Supervision told reporters that adulterated liquefied gas may corrode cylinder valves, pressure reducing valves and hoses, which can easily cause flammable gases to leak out, resulting in gas explosion accidents, seriously endangering the safety of people's lives and property.

According to reports, in the first half of the year, it was found that the intermediary agency was suspected of charging 185 million yuan in violation of the law; the market supervision departments at all levels across the country investigated and handled 678 cases of false and illegal advertising of medical, pharmaceutical and health food, with a penalty of 14.08 million yuan; 242 cases of false and illegal advertising in education and training, with a penalty of 3.06 million yuan.

The reporter of China Economic Network learned that as of now, the State Administration of Market Supervision has announced four batches of 40 cases. The investigation and handling of these cases has effectively safeguarded the safety of people's lives and property, effectively responded to social concerns, and effectively standardized market order.
