Research and Analysis on the Global Commercial Remote Sensing Satellite Market
The global commercial remote sensing satellite market is experiencing an unprecedented "golden age" of growth, primarily driven by technological innovation, the explosive expansion of data applications, and increasingly close cooperation between public and private sectors. This paper provides an in-depth analysis of two core technologies—high-resolution optical satellites and radar satellites (SAR)—aiming to offer a comprehensive market overview for strategic decision-makers. The user base has expanded from government and defense sectors to a broader range of commercial fields. Leveraging their unique advantages, satellite imagery is carving out new spaces and playing an irreplaceable role across civil, commercial, and military customer segments and applications.

Research on the Impact of DIP Reform on the Service Efficiency of Medical Institutions: A Case Study of H City, Hubei Province
Objective: To evaluate the impact of the Diagnosis-Intervention Packet (DIP) payment policy on the service efficiency of medical institutions and provide evidence for the reform of medical insurance payment methods. Methods: Based on quarterly data from 37 medical institutions in H City, Hubei Province, from 2020 to 2024, a common frontier Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and an Interrupted Time Series (ITS) model were employed to quantitatively analyze changes in efficiency before and after the implementation of DIP. Results: The DIP policy significantly improved medical service efficiency, driving efficiency values closer to the optimal frontier while effectively controlling medical costs. However, three issues were identified: (1) Only a few institutions achieved the optimal Technology Gap Ratio (TGR); (2) Cost control exhibited a "U-shaped" pattern, initially decreasing and then rising; (3) There were significant differences in responses among medical institutions of different levels. Conclusion: It is recommended to enhance the policy effectiveness by improving supporting mechanisms, deepening internal refined management, and optimizing differentiated reform pathways, thereby providing a reference for further payment reforms.

An Investigation into the Impact of Future Expectations on the Desire for Multiple Children among Young Adults of Childbearing Age
Investigating the multi-child fertility intentions of young people of childbearing age holds significant implications for exploring population structural transformation. Against the backdrop of China's current severe demographic challenges, examining the influence of future expectations on young people's willingness to have multiple children helps uncover the underlying logic of their reproductive decisions—particularly the pathways through which asset expectations, subjective class expectations, and social security expectations shape their multi-child fertility intentions. This study utilizes data from the 2023 China General Social Survey database. It employs a binary logistic regression model to empirically analyze the impact effects of each dimension of expectations and employs heterogeneity analysis to reveal differences among various age and gender groups. The results indicate: Within the asset expectations dimension, housing area exerts a highly significant positive influence on young adults' willingness to have multiple children, while annual household income has a significantly negative effect. Subjective class expectations exert a significant positive influence on young people's willingness to have multiple children; commercial health insurance within the social security expectations dimension exerts a highly significant negative effect on young people's willingness to have multiple children. Furthermore, the impact of each dimension varies across different age groups and genders. Based on these findings, only by formulating targeted measures according to group characteristics can the desired effect of promoting willingness to have multiple children be achieved.

The Impact of Hollywood Political Films on US Politics and Politics Culture: A Case Study of Thirteen Days
This essay uses the Hollywood political film Thirteen Days as a case study, by combining the authentic historical and political background of the 1960s Cuban Missile Crisis in the United States, examines the roles and impacts of Hollywood political films in shaping U.S. politics and political culture. Specifically, by reconstructing historical decision-making processes, portraying an idealised presidential image, and conveying ideological information, Thirteen Days has contributed to enhancing public understanding of politics, strengthening the political beliefs, and fostering social unity and cohesion to some extent. However, it may also promote information bias by selective storytelling and perpetuating the manipulation of ideology by dominant political interests. In addition, this essay also discusses Thirteen Days’s global cultural impact as a vehicle for exporting American values and reshaping Cold War memory.

Critical Discourse Analysis of Chinese Aerospace Reports in China Daily
With the continuous development of China's aerospace industry, China Daily, as an important window for international communication, plays a crucial role in shaping and disseminating China's aerospace image. This study takes the reports on Chinese aerospace in China Daily as the research object, adopting Fairclough's three-dimensional critical discourse analysis model and corpus-assisted research methods. From the perspectives of text, discourse practice and social cultural practice, this paper explores the linguistic characteristics, discourse strategies and image construction logic of the reports. The research finds that China Daily constructs a positive and comprehensive Chinese aerospace image featuring independent innovation, peaceful development, and international cooperation through specific lexical selection, syntactic structure arrangement, and diverse citation methods. This image construction is not only closely related to China's aerospace development achievements and national diplomatic concepts but also influenced by the media's international communication orientation and cultural value transmission needs. The study is expected to provide reference for optimizing the international communication of China's aerospace discourse and enhancing the international influence of China's aerospace image.
