Based on the panel data of 31 provinces from 1985 to 2017, the article conducts a statistical measure of starting point fairness and econometric analysis of the determinants of starting point fairness in China. The research results show that:(1) China's starting point fairness is relatively fair generally, showing an upward trend. Education equity and public health equity are very fair. Public infrastructure equity is quite fair. Public natural resources equity is relatively fair. Employment equity is relatively unfair. (2) Inequalities in education, employment, public health, public infrastructure and public natural resources have significant negative effects on the starting point fairness, vice versa. (3) Policy bias, urban-rural differences, and regional differences have significant negative effects on the starting point fairness. The relationship between opening-up and starting point fairness is a significant inverted U-type. Policy bias, urban-rural differences, regional differences and opening-up have further widened the negative effects of education inequality and employment inequality on the starting point fairness. The findings provide important policy implications.

It can be applied in many fields and brings a huge improvement to society. To help users to gain quick access to this new technology, IT giants introduce BaaS (Blockchain as a service). However, the study of BaaS in the context of the Chinese environment is insufficient. Therefore, this article aims to make up for this gap. This paper studies the application of blockchain in China and the benefits and challenges of BaaS. Then, 5 BaaS providers will be introduced and one of them, the 58 BaaS, will be carefully examined through SWOT analysis. The conclusion is that although the application of BaaS is promising, there are obstacles such as regulations on the way to the large-scale use. Different providers of BaaS in China focus on different areas, and 58 concentrates on a unique one. 58 BaaS has its competitive advantages compared to other providers, but it still has to deal with the challenges carefully in the application of blockchain.

In this paper, the concept of food security is sorted out, and the concept of grain industry security is presented, meanwhile on the base of the construction of grain industry security system theory model, analysis the influence of potential threat, industry main body and macro safeguards on grain industry security, clarify the action mechanism of various factors and establish a index system of grain industry security evaluation. Keywords—grain industry security; influence factor; index system I. THE DEFINITION OF GRAIN INDUSTRY SECURITY CONCEPT Improving the overall national food acquisition ability and eliminating macro food insecurity risk are the basis and premise of elimination of household and personal food insecurity. Therefore, the security of food production and circulation is the key to the problem of food security, and the grain industry carrier of assuming grain production and circulation should be a research area of food security issues. After accession to WTO, the greatest impact in the field of agriculture is food industry. The core content of the Sino-US agricultural cooperation agreement that is a precondition for China’s accession to WTO is food trade. The huge differences in grain production costs between China and other developed food exporting countries determines the china’s disadvantaged position of exports and the international grain markets’ impact on China's food industry is inevitable. Therefore, China's food industry not only should have a stable production capacity, ensure that the grain has the stable and effective supply, but also to foster and strengthened food industry’s competitiveness, foster food industry’s penetration on international food market, so as to avoid taking up too much market share by the United States and other countries exporting food, this is the need for food industry's own development, and even the need for food security. Therefore, the definition of the concept of food security from the industry level, this paper puts forward the concept of grain industry security: in the integrated international and domestic market environment, a country's food industry is competitive in the participation international competition, can resist the risk factors from the outside and inside and maintain sustainability of grain production and smoothness of grain circulation, thereby form a stable, efficient food supply.
