Dear pwscf users,   
    I have asked the similar problem last time, but I do not understand this 
problem very explicitly. I want to do a structural relaxation of a charged 
system using pwscf. For example, In the process of oxygen reduction reaction, 
adsorption of hydration proton(H3O+) on Pt(111) surface,  simultaneously, a 
extra electron is added, that is to say, O2 + H+ + e- . When I calculate this 
system with pwscf, could I add charge and add a electron simultanously? My input 
file is displayed as follows, In this system, there is 157 electrons, when I add 
a extra electron, it is 158 electron, simultanously, I add +1 charge, when I run 
input file, I do not get an error information, is this correct? I need your 
help.   
Thanks in advance
