BEIJING， March 1 (Xinhua) -- Chinese tech firm Xiaomi launched its first smartphone processor on Tuesday， becoming the fourth company in the world capable of producing both smartphones and chips.

The company has started mass production of the Surge S1 chip， which targets medium- and high-end phones and powers Xiaomi's new flagship smartphone， the Mi 5c， which was launched the same day.

The move enabled Xiaomi to join the ranks of Apple， Samsung and Chinese telecom giant Huawei， and marked another step by Chinese companies in reducing their reliance on foreign chips.

"Processor chip manufacturing is the pinnacle of the whole smartphone industry，" said Lei Jun， chairman and chief executive officer of Xiaomi. "A great company in the sector must have a grasp of this core technology."

It took 28 months for Xiaomi to develop and commercialize the chip. Lei vowed to establish a complete product line covering medium- and high-end and flagship-class smartphone processors in 10 years.

China is pushing for breakthroughs in key technologies such as high-end chips to sharpen its industrial competitive edge and build an innovation-driven economy.

The country has the world's largest chip market， which is now dominated by foreign firms like Qualcomm.

China imports more than 200 billion U.S. dollars in chips each year and aims to increase its self-sufficiency rate for chips to 50 percent by 2025.

BEIJING， July 28 (Xinhua) -- Zhang Yue， a former standing committee member of the Communist Party of China (CPC) committee in north China's Hebei Province， has been expelled from the Party and removed from public office.

The CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) announced on Thursday that Zhang， also former head of the commission for political and legal affairs of the CPC Hebei committee， was found to have been involved in corruption and violated the Party's frugality code.

The CCDI carried out an investigation into Zhang's case upon approval of the CPC Central Committee.

The probe found that Zhang was absent without official leave during important missions， violating the Party's political code of conduct and political rules.

He also practiced "superstitious" activities and was found to have resisted the Party's investigation， the CCDI statement said.

The investigation found that Zhang sought benefits for others in promoting and selecting officials and used public funds on extravagant banquets.

He attended banquets， played golf and accepted gifts and money in violation of the Party's clean-governance rules.

Zhang was also involved in trading power and money for sex and interfered in construction projects and judical activities， the CCDI said.

The CCDI further accused Zhang of "extravagance and hedonism."

The statement said that as a senior official of the CPC， Zhang had lost his beliefs， seriously violated the Party's code of conduct and did not end his inappropriate behavior after the CPC 18th National Congress.

The CPC Central Committee has approved his expulsion from the Party and removal from office. His illegal gains should be confiscated and the case should be transferred to judicial organs for investigation into his alleged crimes.

While football in most of Europe is hibernating Cheap Nike Air Max 90 Black , thousands of fans will fill terraces the length and breadth of England to watch the match while wearing Santa hats and repurpose Christmas carols into football chants. Despite nearly every league on the continent taking a break, football remains a key part of the festive calendar in England.

Even the Scottish top flight is taking a breather from its hectic schedule this season Cheap Nike Air Max Black , reintroducing the winter break after its hiatus since the 2002-03 campaign. The current campaign started earlier for many clubs so the respite will be welcomed by the players, while it also makes sense from the perspective of the inevitable inclement weather of a Scottish winter with postponed matches in December and January that become a fixture pileup in the spring. December 31 is the final day of games before they resume on January 28 Cheap Air Max 2018 Black , ideal for a wee bit of team bonding, friendly matches and warm weather training - both Celtic and Aberdeen are following in the footsteps of Barcelona and heading to Dubai for a training camp.

Germany leads the way when it comes to winter breaks: The -Bundesliga is on pause for 30 days Cheap Air Max 90 Black , the final fixtures of the year were last Wednesday and the next ball will not be kicked in anger until January 20. France is not far behind (December 21 to January 14), Spain is taking off 18 days (December 19 - January 6) and Serie A finishes games this weekend until January 7.

It's a similar story elsewhere on the continent with the culture of splitting the season dominant in every league.
