An Old Fisherman Wang Chaosheng’s "Landing"

  Xinhua News Agency, Guiyang, January 23rd Title: Old fisherman Wang Chaosheng’s "Landing"

  Xinhua News Agency reporter Wang Jun, wu si

  This Spring Festival, Lao Wang is very busy. During this time, a new batch of fry was put into his fish pond, and every detail was careless.

  Lao Wang’s name is Wang Chaosheng. He is 60 years old. He lives in xiazhai village, Tangtou Town, Sinan County, Guizhou Province. He started fishing in his early 30s and retired to shore at the age of 57. After landing, Wang Chaosheng rented more than 10 mu of land to build pond culture, and raised it for 3 years, which brought good benefits and started a new life.

  Wujiang River is the largest tributary of the south bank of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, which flows through 13 of the 28 townships in Sinan County. In order to strictly implement the 10-year ban on fishing in the Yangtze River, the local fishery department has repeatedly gone deep into the two sides of the strait to do ideological work for fishermen. Old fishermen like Wang Chaosheng bid farewell to fishing life in succession. Since 2019, 121 fishermen in Sinan County have been arrested and landed.

  Wang Chaosheng used to fish and earned a considerable income. He has fishing license, crew certificate, fishing boat registration certificate and other procedures. During the slack season, he opened a fishing boat and installed a few nets, and started a "sideline business" in Wujiang.

  "Growing crops is the main business, but the bulk of family income is still fishing ‘ Sideline ’ 。” Wang Chaosheng said that when he was young, he earned 300,000 to 400,000 yuan in the most year, and earned 10,000 yuan in the most day.

  Wang Chaosheng is a good fisherman. The wind is high and the waves are urgent. Day and night, he and his wife have been safe for decades. He swam around the river with a width of five or six hundred meters, not to mention. If the amount of wild fish salvaged is not large, it will be robbed at home. If the fishing boat comes home with a full load, he will pull it to towns and counties.

  Wang Chaosheng misses fishing. However, he also figured it out about retreating to shore. On the one hand, support the ecological protection policy; On the other hand, after landing, family income is relatively stable.

  "I used to fish, but now I raise fish. I’m still at my old job!" Wang Chaosheng told reporters with a smile. Now, fish farming earns more than 100,000 yuan a year, so Wujiang River can recuperate and the ecological protection of the river basin has been strengthened.

  Today, Wang Chaosheng feeds forage in the fish pond every morning and evening. Watching the mountain spring flow into the fish pond, the big fish churned up and down, and he was full of energy. Grass carp, catfish and other four or five varieties, the big 14 or 15 Jin, the unit price from 10 yuan to 50 yuan, three fish ponds, there is no shortage of sales.

  "Mountain spring water, ecological fish, good quality!" Wang Chaosheng was destined to become attached to fish in this life. At the entrance of the mountain spring flowing into the fish pond, he specially took pebbles and river sand from the river to create a natural living environment for the fish. He planted sweet sorghum and ryegrass with bait to make the fish’s food more original.

  Because of the good quality of fish, Wang Chaosheng’s fish pond attracted some fishing enthusiasts. There is no charge for fishing, just buy the hooked fish at the actual price. Now, his breeding technology is more refined and his output is increasing year by year.

  In order to ensure the sustainable benefit of ecological fish farming, technicians from county and township fisheries departments often go to the village to give guidance, feed, change water and prevent diseases. They help Wang Chaosheng to move forward continuously.

Chinese youth killed by police: video release is justified!

[Comprehensive News]Christian Hall (Chinese name: Chen Zhibo), a 19-year-old Chinese youth in Pennsylvania, was shot and killed by state police in December last year. At present, it has been ruled as a legitimate reason (legal) by DA in Monroe County, Pennsylvania.

On December 30th, someone called 911 anonymously, and the anonymous caller was Hall himself. The police rushed to the scene on I-80 and found Hall standing on top of the concrete safety barrier. After some continuous twists and turns, Hall then took the gun (an air gun like a pistol) from his waist and took a step towards the police. Then a police officer fired several shots, but missed Hall.

You can see that Hall raised his arm to the side, turned the weapon to the side, and turned the barrel to aim at his head. At this time, it was the critical moment when the police decided to shoot him.

The police said: "Because Hall’s behavior caused a potential threat of death or injury, in this case, it is legal for Pennsylvania police to use deadly force against Hall."

The Monroe County District Attorney said they didn’t think the police were at fault, and they wanted to make sure Hall’s family didn’t blame themselves for it. The prosecution said that Pennsylvania law does not require suspects to fire at the police. Hall (Chen Zhibo) used an air gun to force the police to shoot, which is a common "suicide by cop" behavior.

Production capacity may be limited in the third quarter. How long can LI’s growth story be told?

Wen | Buer Research Institute Yi Xin Zi Qing

Following the price reduction of Tesla at the beginning of the year, in August this year, new energy vehicles once again set off a new wave of price reduction. Brand officials, such as Zero Run and Weilai, announced the price reduction, and the ideal was to "reduce the price in disguise" by releasing new cars.

On August 8th, LI (02015.HK) announced the second quarterly report of 2023. Although the net profit of the second quarter increased, its share price showed the opposite trend.

On the day of the financial report, its US stock price closed down by 8.62%; The next day (August 9), Hong Kong stocks closed down 5.52%.

As of August 14th, LI closed at HK$ 160.90 per share, corresponding to a market value of HK$ 335.4 billion (about RMB 311.1 billion).

According to the latest data released by Ideal, its delivery volume in the second quarter reached 86,533 vehicles, up 201.6% year-on-year and 65% quarter-on-quarter. In July, the delivery volume was 34,134 vehicles, up 227.5% year-on-year and only 4.7% quarter-on-quarter.

According to the announcement of LI, it is estimated that the delivery volume in the third quarter is only 100,000-103,000, equivalent to 33,000-34,500 vehicles per month. Based on this data, it is speculated that the growth of ideal monthly delivery volume may stagnate.

According to its second quarterly report, "Buer Research" found that in the second quarter of this year, LI’s revenue was 28.65 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 228.1%; The net profit was 2.31 billion yuan, turning losses into profits year-on-year, up 147.4% from the previous month.

In the second quarterly report, the ideal revenue doubled, but the strategy of re-marketing may continue. The R&D expenditure in the ideal second quarter was 2.43 billion yuan, up 58.4% year-on-year and 31% quarter-on-quarter. Sales, general and management expenses were 2.32 billion yuan, up 74.3% year-on-year and 40.4% quarter-on-quarter.

At present, LI’s production capacity is limited to 8,000 vehicles per week, and the production capacity of parts suppliers has fallen into a bottleneck, which is also a challenge it faces in the second half of the year.

According to the financial report meeting in the second quarter, due to the development of economic situation and the upgrading of enterprise organization matrix at the beginning of the year, it is ideal to lower the planned annual sales target of 360,000 vehicles to 300,000 vehicles.

Today, the new energy vehicle has entered the second half, and the industry volume has been intensified; Although LI turned losses into profits year-on-year, how long can the story of its profitability be sustained and increased?

In March of this year, the new forces of building cars suffered a double crit.

The first crit comes from the continuous price reduction war of peer TSLA, and the second crit is the government-enterprise subsidy jointly initiated by Hubei Dongfeng. The fuel vehicle market is "chaotic", which makes new energy vehicles suffer crit.

As one of the Three Musketeers, a new force in car-making, LI has previously published the 2022 annual report and the first quarterly report in 2023. Although the revenue in 2022 has achieved substantial growth, it is still at a loss.

According to its financial report, "Buer Research" found that in 2022, LI’s revenue was 45.29 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 67.7%; In the same period, its net loss was 2.03 billion yuan, up 531.42% year-on-year, making it the most serious year since the listing of US stocks in 2020.

Among them, the ideal automobile sales revenue in 2022 is 44.106 billion yuan, accounting for 97.39% of the total revenue. According to "Buer Research", due to the increase in R&D investment and rising operating costs in 2022, the automobile sales revenue failed to catch up, which led to the further expansion of LI’s net loss.

Under the new energy automobile track, it still takes time to accumulate and reserve funds to transform R&D investment into automobile production capacity.

Although the capital reserve has been expanded after the dual listing, more and more car-making competitors and intensified competition in sub-sectors seem to be shortening the ideal "new" time window.

01 landing in Normandy

In 2015, after leaving office in car home, Li wanted to start a business again, aiming at the field of new energy vehicles. At that time, Tesla was in the limelight, and many Tesla "fans" emerged in China.

Source: LI founder-Li Xiang-LI Guan Wei

Since then, Li Xiang’s brand ideal of new energy vehicles has stood out, and he, together with Weilai Automobile and Xpeng Motors, has been called "Three Musketeers".

In 2019, when the ideal first car, Li ONE, was officially launched, Li Xiang said frankly, "I have been in business for 20 years, and today is my most nervous day, and it is also the Normandy landing day of the company".

In July 2020, above the new energy outlet, it was ideal to land on Nasdaq in the United States, and the IPO was priced at $11.5 per share, with the highest increase of more than 50% on the first day of opening.

On August 12, 2021, LI landed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, becoming the second new car-making force to achieve dual listing in Hong Kong stocks after Xpeng Motors.

Although the new energy outlet is still there, the competition of the Three Musketeers, a new force to build cars, is intensifying. Compared with the increasingly full product matrix of Weilai and Tucki, the outside world is quite worried about the ideal car-making pace: the 2020 Li ONE that landed in Normandy has been sold for nearly three years, and the ideal finally got the new 2021 Li ONE.

According to the ideal quarterly report in 2023, its total revenue in the first quarter was 18.79 billion yuan, up 96.5% year-on-year and 6.4% quarter-on-quarter. In the same period, the net profit was 934 million yuan, turning losses into profits. In addition, the ideal annual gross profit margin in the first quarter of 2023 is still declining.

According to "Buer Research", the ideal main revenue source is vehicle sales, and its vehicle sales revenue in the first quarter of 2023 was 18.33 billion yuan, accounting for 97.55% of the total revenue.

The increase in sales revenue in LI is mainly due to the increase in delivery volume in the first quarter and the increase in the average selling price of ideal L series models. In addition, the revenue and delivery have been greatly improved, which has also enabled LI to turn losses into profits.

Entrepreneurship means choosing the path of extended-range technology and relying on an extended-range electric vehicle to conquer the world. The ideal can be described as a different kind among the three musketeers, a new force in building cars. However, the increasingly strict policy supervision is like the sword of Damocles hanging overhead, and it is ideal to make up for the autopilot technology.

Li Xiang once said frankly, "In terms of autonomous driving, compared with Tesla and Tucki, we have to make up lessons." According to the plan, this year’s ideal research and development is continuously invested; In the first quarter, its R&D expenditure was 1.85 billion yuan, up 34.8% year-on-year; In the second quarter, its R&D expenditure was 2.43 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 58.4%.

When the market structure of the new force of car-making is initially determined, the competition of new energy vehicles has entered the second half: the sales and mass production targets of 280,000-300,000 vehicles, and the fierce competition of autonomous driving technology.

As a supporter of the "10,000-hour Law", Li Xiang once wrote in Weibo, "I have trained more than 60,000 hours in the automobile industry since 2004, and I am more confident in my major".

It seems that the capital market that votes with its feet is not satisfied with Li Xiang’s "10,000-hour law".

By comparing the PE value (P/E ratio) and the PB value (P/B ratio) of the Three Musketeers, a new car-making force, it was found that by the close of the US stock market on August 12th, EDT, except LI, the PE values of the new car-making force were all negative, with the PB values of Tucki 2.81, Ideal 6.23 and Weilai 7.63 in turn, while the PB value of Tesla was 15.06.

Among the three musketeers, the ideal PB value ranks second, which is about 1/10 of Tesla PB value. The higher the PB value, the higher the valuation of enterprises in the capital market.

As of August 12th, EST, the US stock market closed, with an ideal market value of $42.18 billion, while Tesla’s market value has passed the $700 billion mark.

02 on the new speed.

On May 25th, 2021, Ideality released the 2021 Li ONE in Beijing, which was different from the enthusiastic conference site. The capital market reacted coldly and fell immediately after the opening of the day. Only one day later, it is ideal to announce the financial report for the first quarter of 2021, from profit to loss.

"Li Xiang, you owe an explanation to the owner who picked up the car in April and May." After the release of the 2021 Li ONE, Li Xiang’s Weibo was overwhelmed by the owner’s doubts.

According to the ideal plan, after the production and sales of the 2021 Li ONE model begin, the production of the 2020 model will stop. The car owner who just bought the old model of Li ONE soon felt that he had been "cleared of inventory" by routine. Although it is ideal to provide four paid upgrade schemes for old car owners, it still cannot satisfy the skeptics.

In August of the same year, a similar scene was once again staged in the ideal riders group: the prospectus revealed that the ideal will launch a new full-size SUV in 2022, and compared with the existing products, the size, hardware and intelligent configuration have been improved in many aspects.

To some extent, the rapid iteration of new energy vehicles is accelerating the depreciation of the value of the previous generation models. Anxiety, confrontation and other emotions spread between riders waiting for a full-size new car and owners who have already picked up the car.

According to "Buer Research", the innovative technology of new energy vehicles is both a spear and a shield. Compared with traditional cars, the product cycle of new energy vehicles is shorter; How to balance customer perception and product iteration has also become an ideal test.

However, the other side of the coin is the risk brought by the thin product line, and any fluctuation in Li ONE may trigger a chain reaction.

In order to change this situation, it is ideal to replace Li ONE with L8 and L9 from the second half of 2022.

In the fourth quarter of 2022, the ideal delivery volume was 46,319 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 31.5%; In the same period, Weilai and Tucki delivered 40,052 vehicles and 22,204 vehicles respectively, both of which increased year-on-year.

By the end of 2022, it is ideal to deliver 133,246 vehicles throughout the year, up 47.2% year-on-year; Although it did not reach the expected goal of LI, it was slightly ahead of Weilai Automobile’s 122,486 vehicles and Xpeng Motors’s 120,757 vehicles in terms of the number of deliveries in 2022.

By the end of January this year, LI’s monthly sales even exceeded the combined monthly sales of Weilai Automobile and Xpeng Motors.

In the first quarter of this year, the ideal delivery volume was 52,584 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 65.8%; The deliveries of Weilai and Tucki in the same period were 31,041 and 18,230 respectively.

The outbreak of black swan is only a small probability event. If compared with the same industry, to some extent, the large data fluctuation of ideal sales revenue is related to its single product structure.

In the view of "Buer Research", in the early stage of starting a business, the 2020 Li ONE solo combat can unite all the superior resources; However, due to the lack of product matrix, ideal is losing its position in the price range, and it is easy to fall into the situation of weak subsequent growth.

Expanding the product matrix is imminent. On August 3 this year, it officially launched the ideal L9 Pro. According to the ideal plan, it is expected to launch the first pure electric vehicle MEGA; by the end of 2023. And in 2024, four new cars will be released, including an extended-range SUV and three pure electric models.

It is not easy to "upgrade" new energy vehicles, and R&D investment is similar to "arms race"; Only from the number of patents and invention patents in 2020, the ideal is relatively backward.

Intelligent driving is the focus of LI’s current layout. This year, the ideal plan is to land the "NOA" function in 100 cities.

At present, LI has successfully opened the urban NOA internal test in Shanghai and Beijing, and completed the first test drive of urban NOA and commuter NOA in Beijing. It is expected that in the third quarter, Ideal will also open the commuting NOA function to "early bird users".

In the view of "Buer Research", when the potential of new energy vehicle track is highlighted, attracting many car-making forces to enter the market, the competition in market segments will become more intense.

Regardless of the technical path, ideally, the time window of the new product matrix is limited, and it is urgent to find a balance between iterative novelty and customer perception.

03 Flag of Li Xiang

In February 2021, Li Xiang said in an internal letter that by 2025, it is ideal to win 20% of the market share and become the first intelligent electric vehicle enterprise in China; In 2030, it will go further and become the first intelligent electric vehicle enterprise in the world.

In the second quarter of this year, Li Xiang set a new Flag: the ideal total sales this year will exceed the target at the beginning of the year by 10%-20%. The ideal target at the beginning of the year is annual sales of 306,000 vehicles, and the adjusted sales volume is expected to be 336,000-366,000 vehicles.

According to the latest data released by Ideal, its delivery volume in the second quarter reached 86,533 vehicles, up 201.6% year-on-year and 65% quarter-on-quarter. And delivered 34,134 vehicles in July.

In terms of production capacity closely related to the delivery volume, the "Buer Research" found that the annual production capacity of the ideal Changzhou factory in 2020 will be about 100,000 vehicles, and the annual production capacity of the factory will increase to 200,000 vehicles after upgrading.

After the release of Q3 financial report in 2022, Shen Yanan, the ideal co-founder and president, announced his resignation. He helped LI choose to build his own factory in Changzhou. This adjustment is regarded as a large-scale change since the establishment of Ideal.

At the ideal second-quarter financial report meeting on August 8, Li Xiang said that at present, due to the influence of supplier supply, the production capacity is in a bottleneck.

Earlier, there were media reports that Ideality was contacting Beijing Hyundai and hoped to receive its first factory that had stopped production. At present, the Beijing base is expected to be officially put into production at the end of this year. In addition, it is reported that the production plan of the ideal third factory, Chongqing production base, has stopped.

According to "Buer Research", if we want to achieve production and sales of 1.6 million vehicles in 2025, we need a strong production capacity reserve. The only Changzhou factory and Beijing factory may not have enough production capacity to carry their delivery demand, so the construction of new factories is imminent.

Previously, compared with the other two new car-making forces, the ideal offline layout was not dominant and is currently accelerating.

By June 30, 2023, LI had operated 331 retail stores covering 127 cities. In addition, LI operates 323 after-sales maintenance centers and authorized car body and painting centers in 223 cities.

When Internet companies such as Baidu and Xiaomi went off to build cars one after another, the war of new energy vehicles intensified. Regarding the cross-border showstopper, Li wants to speak frankly about the car, saying that the car sales can’t be faked, and the final development depends on the final product.

Although LI is speeding up its running, will Li Xiang’s Flag fall down under many skinny realities?

"Ideal" meets the cold reality

Although the ideal delivery volume since 2023 has been leading the new domestic car-making forces, LI still considers 2023 as "Alexander". In particular, the head car companies headed by Tesla started a price war, which caught the industry off guard.

However, as a "hardware for traffic portal, software for charging service", Tesla model seems to bring new imagination space for new energy vehicles.

When the income of Tucki XPILOT software and Weilai NIOPILOT software increased, Li Xiang declared: "The new Li ONE autopilot is standard, and the future ideal will not charge for autopilot".

"With the development of smart cars, there will be more and more usage scenarios for users and more and more business models." Li wants to put his hopes on another possibility of business model innovation, but it needs to be built on the basis of ownership.

Che Gewana once said, let’s be loyal to our ideals and face reality. On the increasingly crowded track, Li wants to be loyal to his ideals, but he also needs to face reality: the day after tomorrow of new energy vehicles is beautiful, and today is very difficult. The key is whether he can survive tomorrow.

Xiaomi car, which will sell 900 thousand in three years, is coming, and these companies are related to it | the forefront of the industry

Nearly 950 days after Lei Jun announced that he would "put all his reputation on the line", Xiaomi Automobile finally arrived.

On November 15th, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology publicized the declaration list of the 377th batch of new products in the Announcement of Road Motor Vehicle Manufacturers and Products, among which two pure electric cars with Xiaomi brand appeared.

According to the public information, the models of the two Xiaomi brand cars are SU7 and SU7 Max/Pro respectively. In terms of size, the length, width and height are 4997mm, 1963mm and 1455mm, respectively, and the wheelbase is 3000mm, so they are positioned as C-class cars.

In terms of power battery, SU7 is equipped with BYD’s lithium iron phosphate battery, while SU7 Max/Pro is equipped with Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited’s ternary lithium battery; As for the motor, the motor on SU7 comes from United Automotive Electronics Co., Ltd., and the peak power of the driving motor is 220kW, while the motor on SU7 Max/Pro comes from Suzhou Huichuan United Power System Co., Ltd., and there are two power options: 220kW and 275kW.

According to the information disclosed by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the production address of Xiaomi Automobile is "No.21 Courtyard, Huanjing Road, Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone". It is also reported that Xiaomi’s automobile factory in Yizhuang, Beijing is under construction. The construction of the project is divided into two stages. The first stage began in April 2022 and has begun to take shape. According to Xiaomi’s previous plan, Xiaomi Automobile will be listed in the first half of next year.

The official announcement of Xiaomi Automobile is more exciting than rice noodles in the secondary market. As early as two months ago, the concept of Xiaomi Automobile OEM was heated up by the market. In early November, the news that BAIC Group executives were photographed by the media to attend the closed meeting in Xiaomi Science Park added new evidence to the "rumor that BAIC OEM Xiaomi Automobile", but from the current point of view, Xiaomi Automobile did not choose the direction of OEM.

Although the trademark of Xiaomi’s new car is "Xiaomi Brand", the name of the declared enterprise is Beijing Automotive Group Off-road Vehicle Co., Ltd.. In this regard, industry insiders said that Xiaomi may not solve the problem of production qualification for the time being, and needs the production qualification provided by BAIC. To obtain production qualification, it generally depends on acquiring other automobile brands or taking the OEM route, or obtaining qualification through self-built factories. Xiaomi chooses the latter, which takes a certain amount of time and process, but the products should seize the window period to grab the market, so Xiaomi may continue to apply for independent qualification while using BAIC’s qualification for production.

After Xiaomi’s official announcement on November 15th, Beiqi Blue Valley, the concept of Xiaomi’s OEM, also opened higher and went lower on the 16th, closing up slightly by 0.27%. However, the Xiaomi automobile industry chain has ushered in a collective carnival. According to media reports, insiders revealed that Lei Jun set a sales target of 100,000 vehicles for Xiaomi automobile in 2024 and delivered a total of 900,000 vehicles in the next three years. Such a considerable sales scale naturally brings direct benefits to enterprises in the Xiaomi automobile industry chain, and the capital market has turned to pay more attention to Xiaomi automobile industry chain enterprises.

On the 16th, Jiayun Technology, which cooperated with Xiaomi in marketing, and the co-creation data of smart camera products which cooperated with Xiaomi Eco-chain Enterprise (Chuangmi Technology) all had a daily limit of 20cm, and Yinbaoshan, which provided structural products for Xiaomi, had a new daily limit, while companies that directly provided parts for Xiaomi’s car-making were mixed.

This lecture will focus on the wall of an artificial building next to tiemenguan, near Derbent, located in Besson, Uzbekistan. For ancient China people, tiemenguan was an important checkpoint on the Silk Road that passed through Central Asia and led to South Asia. Xuanzang and Qiu Chuji passed through this pass when they traveled westward, and Genghis Khan once camped here. By collecting archaeological data and rereading ancient texts, Claude Rapin will lead us to understand this side wall and its long-term evolution at the administrative, political and military levels. He will also lead us to discuss some controversial academic issues, such as the Sogdian territory in the pre-Guishuang period and the boundary definition from ancient times to the present.

An Inscription of Uighur Language in the Northwest of the Five Dynasties, Song and Yuan Dynasties —— Research and Prospect

Time:19:00 on Monday, June 21st.

Location:Tencent conference

Speaker:Bai Yudong (Professor, Institute of Dunhuang Studies, Lanzhou University)

Taking the grottoes and temples in Dunhuang, Turpan, Beiting and Hohhot as the core, a number of multilingual inscriptions from the Five Dynasties, Song and Yuan Dynasties remain in the northwest. Inscriptions reflect the political power structure that supported grottoes and temples in history, as well as the belief of Buddhists, etc. They are precious historical materials. Among them, Uighur inscriptions are second only to Chinese in number, and the characters used include Runi, Uighur, Syrian, Brahmi and so on. Some of these inscriptions support the title of the Uighur ruling class of Buddhism, some reflect the writer’s belief background of Manichaeism, Nestorianism and Buddhism, and some are prayers. The interpretation and study of these inscriptions will help to describe the tour route of Uighur Buddhists and the history of Wutai Mountain belief, explore the real origin of "Shazhou Uighur" in the middle and late 11th century, show the real scene of the integration of Manichaeism, Nestorianism and Buddhism along the Silk Road, and dig out the truth of the spread and blending of Chinese and Tibetan Buddhism in the northwest. The historical linguistic value of these inscriptions needs to be further explored.

Beijing | Photography and the Forbidden City

Time:15:00 on Friday, June 18th.

Location:Room 208, Peking University Jingyuan Second Hospital, No.5 Summer Palace Road, Haidian District

Speaker:Xu Jianing (Historical Imager)

As a special building complex, the Forbidden City will almost become the focus of photography at every major node in China’s history. The barrier between China court and photography, a western art, was gradually broken in the long years of 50 or 60 years. In this process, we can see that photography made initial contact with court officials in the southern port city, which is far from the center of the empire. Slowly, more and more princes and ministers left personal images in front of the camera, and finally the queen mother, emperor and their daily activities, who were at the core of power, were included in the camera. This inevitable process of opening up in today’s understanding is clearly reflected in the photos about the Forbidden City and the royal family. These photos are kept as many aspects of historical research in different periods, and there is also room for discussion.

Beijing | Sinking Age, How to Move Forward —— Reading Sharing Meeting of Sinking Age

The sinking elegy of this generation and the social changes in the past 30 years have all been written into the nonfiction masterpiece The Age of Sinking by George Parker, winner of the American National Book Award. If the world is sinking, how should ordinary individuals move forward?

Guest:Duo Duo (Poet) and Leng Shuang (Associate Professor, School of Arts, Minzu University of China)

There are many contemporary poets in the United States. In contrast, Jack Gilbert doesn’t have a loud label, but people keep calling for "revaluation" and "rescue" Gilbert. The latest book "Fire Rejects Heaven: Gilbert’s Poems" combines two important poems of the poet "Fire" and "Rejects Heaven".

Beijing | Creative Workers’ Chat —— Talking about creative things with creative veteran cadres

Time:June 19th (Saturday) 14:30-16:30

Guest:Dongdongqiang (creative worker), Hu Yongqiang (creative senior director of Huge Engine Marketing) and Shi Benying (creative director of Ogilvy Advertising Group).

Copywriter, or many creative workers, one of the biggest puzzles in their work is that they can’t find the criteria for judging creativity. Many times there is no direction, so we can only speculate without a clue. In Dongdong gun’s view, "self-cultivation is the foundation, and it is not just the foundation. Sometimes it is better to achieve the highest level than to cultivate. Part of the cultivation at that time refers to whether you can still stick to those basic correct understandings. " On June 19th, Jiantou Bookstore and CITIC Publishing House presented the reading salon of Basic Accomplishment of Copywriting for readers, and invited three guests, namely, author Dongdong Gun, creative senior director of Huge Engine Marketing, Hu Yongqiang and creative director of Ogilvy & Mather Advertising Group, to talk about creative work and its basic accomplishment.

Beijing | Prehistoric Modernization —— Back to China 10,000 years ago

Time:June 19th (Saturday) 14:30-16:30

Location:Lecture Hall, Floor 2, Building A, Capital Library, No.88 East Third Ring South Road, Chaoyang District

Speaker: Chen Shengqian (Professor, Department of Archaeology and Culture, School of History, Renmin University of China)

If we had the chance to travel to China 10,000 years ago, what would we see? It was another major social change comparable to our current modernization process: human beings have adapted from hunting and gathering life for millions of years to agricultural production. China and West Asia are the two earliest centers of agricultural origin in the world. The agricultural origin of prehistoric China profoundly influenced the development of China culture. Back in China 10,000 years ago, we will also see other diverse cultural adaptation choices, which were the harbingers of the later pluralistic and integrated Chinese civilization. Understanding the process of prehistoric modernization is a key for us to understand the formation of China’s cultural tradition.

On Saturday afternoon, he will invite Mr. Cha Fuxi’s granddaughter Yan Shiyi, the guqin player Sun Guisheng, the eldest son of Mr. Shen Congwen, and scholars of literature and history Zhao Heng and Yang Zhishui to visit Sanlian Taofen Bookstore to share this new book with readers.

People who really have nothing to do with literature do not exist. When we no longer hold the obsession with serious reading, we will taste the sweetness of literature, complete the growth of personality in the fictional "heroic journey", or realize individual redemption in the literary dream.

From Shiliupu to the French-Chinese border of Xieqiao, the French Concession authorities built nearly 40 iron gates in front of and behind the major traffic points. The iron gate in the concession lasted for 20 years from the beginning of construction to the final demolition in early 1946. In the meantime, their opening and closing, full opening and half closing, and the need to check the license until they are completely passed, all have a great impact on the political, economic and social life of Shanghai.

The financial report shows that the Group’s revenue related to generative AI has achieved a strong growth of three digits thanks to the release of the "day-by-day" big model system during the reporting period, and the generative AI product series such as "Consultation SenseChat", "Second Picture SenseMirage" and "Shadow SenseAvatar". According to the latest news, Shang Tang’s "growing day by day" big model has passed the Interim Measures for the Management of Generative Artificial Intelligence Services for the record, and Shang Tang’s "Consultation SenseChat" has been officially opened to the whole society.

Shang Tang said that while increasing investment in R&D of large-scale models, the Group still adhered to the operating goal of continuously reducing losses.

The iteration of large-scale model technology is accelerated to consolidate the core competitiveness of AI.

Since the end of 2022, the generative AI model has been on the rise, and the world’s major technology giants are rushing into the big model track, intending to get a slice of this promising market.

IDC predicts that in 2026, the AI big model market in China will reach 21.1 billion US dollars, and nearly 50% of the terminal devices in China market will have AI engine technology.

In April, 2023, Shang Tang’s "Consultation SenseChat1.0" was released, which is one of the earliest chat robot products based on the large language model with hundreds of billions of parameters in China.Only two months later, Shang Tang, together with a number of top domestic scientific research institutions, released the first basic model InternLM with comprehensive performance exceeding GPT-3.5-turbo in China. On this basis, "Consultation" quickly iterated to version 2.0.

In August, the new model InternLM-123B completed the training, and ranked second in the world in terms of test scores on a total of 300,000 questions in 51 well-known evaluation sets around the world.For example, in five evaluation sets on reading comprehension, the scores of InternLM-123B are all higher than those of GPT-3.5-turbo and the LLaMA2-70B model newly released by Meta, and the scores of individual test sets differ by nearly 20 points.

It is reported that InternLM-123B focuses on upgrading the code interpreter and plug-in calling ability. python interpreter, API calling and search can be used to solve complex tasks and flexibly build AI agent applications. Due to the remarkable improvement of the new model, it is expected that "Consultation SenseChat" will be upgraded to version 3.0 in September.

In addition to the big language model, Shang Tang is also committed to training the world’s top three models of Wensheng Map. As early as January, Shang Tang’s second painting 1.0 started the internal test, and a second-dimensional picture can be generated by inputting prompts; In April, the second painting was upgraded to 2.0 and officially released; In July, version 3.0 of Seconds Painting adopted a brand-new generation model architecture, which can realize professional photography-level picture detail description, and its core algorithm surpassed Google’s Imagen and OpenAI’s DALL·E2 on COCObenchmark.

With the iteration of Shang Tang’s second painting from 1.0 to 3.0, its model parameters increased from the initial 800 million to 7 billion. Version 4.0 is expected to be launched in the third quarter of 2023, and new aesthetic system support will be introduced.

The iteration speed of Shang Tang AI model is extraordinary, which is due to the support of the computing infrastructure behind it. Since 2023, in order to maintain its core competitiveness, Shang Tang has continuously upgraded SenseCore, an intelligent computing infrastructure. The number of online GPUs has increased from 27,000 at the end of March 2023 to about 30,000 recently, and the computing power scale has increased by 20% to 6ExaFLOPS.

Since 2023, more than 1,000 large models with parameters ranging from billions to hundreds of billions have been trained on Shang Tang AI equipment, which has achieved technological iteration leading the industry and supported dozens of generative AI applications.

It should be said that the maturity of any AI technology is by no means achieved overnight. Behind Shang Tang’s big model is the "miracle" of deep learning algorithm, computing power improvement and data accumulation, and deep cultivation for several years.

According to the AI Big Model Market Research Report (2023) published by Jost Sullivan, Shang Tang ranks first in China in terms of comprehensive competitiveness in product technology, strategic vision and ecological opening-up construction.

Release the commercial potential of big model and accelerate the optimization of business structure

When people talk about the big AI model, most of the time they are feeling the impact and subversion it brings to all walks of life, but few people think that the commercial landing of the big model will come so quickly.

The industry has been growing crazily for half a year, and it has completed the transformation from "Hundred Models Battle" when running into the market to thinking about putting technology into practice. Industry analysts believe that with the rise of basic model and tool layer, the cost and difficulty of building applications will be greatly reduced. For application developers, all downstream applications are worth reconstructing.

The observation of AI trend in the era of big model points out that vertical domain application is the main battlefield of big model. With the rapid development of generative AI technology, it has spawned brand-new commercial value in many fields. Although these models are in the early stage of expansion, they also show excellent capabilities. Like other disruptive technologies, this change will develop slowly at first, and then accelerate rapidly.

A ready-made case is that in Shang Tang’s interim report, this change is gradually emerging.

In the first half of 2023, Shang Tang’s revenue related to generative AI recorded a year-on-year growth of 670.4%, and its contribution to the Group’s business increased rapidly from 10.4% in 2022 to 20.3%.Large-scale model has become an important driving force to upgrade the business of Shang Tang.

It is understood that Shang Tang released a series of generative AI products in April, which is one of the earliest enterprises in China to release related products, including Consultation, Secondhand Painting, Ruying, Qiongyu and Gewu, respectively corresponding to the five mainstream generative AI application landing scenarios: natural language interaction, AI Wen Sheng Tu, digital people, 3D big scene reconstruction and 3D small object generation.

The landing and maturity of AI big model not only accelerates the transformation and optimization of Shang Tang’s own business structure, but also shows the potential of more business application scenarios.

Reflected in the business level, at present, Shang Tang’s main businesses are divided into four major sectors, namely, smart business, smart life, smart cars and smart cities. During the reporting period, Shang Tang actively promoted the commercial application of AI technology and helped customers to quickly iterate new products based on large models, with remarkable results.

Among them,Driven by the big AI model, the revenue of the smart business sector increased by 50.2% year-on-year to 854 million yuan, the revenue proportion increased by 19.4 percentage points to 59.6%, the number of service customers reached 481, and the revenue of single customers increased by 59.9%.For example, in cooperation with domestic head insurance companies, Shang Tang provided cross-validation of crop underwriting data based on AI remote sensing model, which helped to improve the risk assessment and claims service system. Compared with the traditional manual identification scheme, the efficiency was improved by 60 times.

The tentacles of the smart life business extend to the C-end. In cooperation with customers in different fields such as e-commerce, traditional media and community platforms, Shang Tang’s AI products such as consultation, second painting, shadow and grid objects all come in handy. From digital life to high-precision 3D object modeling ability, Shang Tang’s technical strength can be intuitively presented to C-end users. During the reporting period, the revenue of this business increased by 6.7% year-on-year to 312 million yuan, the proportion of revenue increased to 21.8%, and the number of customers increased by 47.5% year-on-year.

Besides,The revenues of smart cities and smart cars are 184 million yuan and 84 million yuan respectively.Among them, the mass production business of Jueying achieved a year-on-year growth of 573%, and the number of mass production deliveries reached 390,000 vehicles, driving the gross profit of bicycles to increase by 29%. In terms of intelligent experience, Shang Tang built an intelligent assistant in the cabin based on "Consultation" and launched a number of interactive products in Chinese in the cabin. In the first half of the year, the number of smart car customers of the company increased by 70% year-on-year to 34. With the continuous transformation of its cutting-edge technology, the business income is expected to show a rapid growth trend.

Guolian Securities Research Report believes that the AI big model opens the second growth curve in Shang Tang, Shang Tang is in the leading position in R&D investment and business scale, and it is also the first manufacturer in China to lay out the AI big model. The company has accumulated rich technology and application experience in the AI field, which is expected to take the lead in the AI 2.0 era and promote the further growth of the company’s performance.

It is worth mentioning that,Previously, Shang Tang United many countries.bestThe model InternLM-7B, with a parameter of 7 billion, released by scientific research institutions, has opened some of its training data, training codes and basic model weights to academia and industry for free, and supports commercialization.

On August 31st, Shang Tang expanded its opening authority again, and announced that the large-scale model application "Consultation SenseChat" will be fully opened to users from now on, which is one of the first domestic large-scale models successfully filed and approved to go online.

The media "expressed their opinions": did NATO and Russian military exercises escalate the tension?

  Cctv newsThe multinational military exercise codenamed "Fast Trident -2017" began in western Ukraine on the 11th. The military exercise will last for two weeks, with 2,500 soldiers from NATO participating. From September 14th to 20th, Russia and Belarus will hold the "West — The joint military exercise in 2017 will extend from kola peninsula to Belarus.

Indian express

  The article in India Express pointed out that the Ukrainian military said that the "Fast Trident" military exercise was to deal with the "Western 2017" large-scale military exercise to be held by Russia and Belarus on the border. Although Russia called the exercise "purely defensive", it still caused panic in the Baltic countries and Poland. The Russian side said that 12,700 Russian and Belarusian soldiers will participate in the exercise, but some opponents said that as many as 100,000 soldiers may participate.

  CNN: A rehearsal of military exercises or armed conflicts.

  CNN reported that both the "Fast Trident" military exercise and the large-scale military exercise that Russia is planning will put the region in a tense situation. Military experts believe that Russia’s "Western 2017" military exercise is a drill for the armed conflict between Russia and NATO, because the Russian exercise is very close to the expected strike site that the outside world thinks. Russia said that some NATO members tried to intensify the situation to the maximum extent before the exercise and made unfounded accusations against Russia.

  Sputnik’s article pointed out that before the "Fast Trident" exercise, on August 24th, US Defense Secretary Matisse said in a meeting with Ukrainian President poroshenko that the Trump administration was considering providing Ukraine with more weapons of destruction. Dan Kovalik, a professor of international human rights at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law, said that Matisse’s remarks clearly regarded Russia as a direct threat, and the US behavior could be understood as an escalation of hostility between the two countries, which would inevitably have a negative impact on the settlement of the Ukrainian conflict between the two countries.

▎ If Apple’s folding screen is released in 2027, then, in the face of Samsung and Huawei, which have been marketized for nearly 10 years, can Apple still "crush it"?

This article is the first titanium media APP.

Recently, Apple, whose market value has evaporated by more than one trillion yuan, has become the target of "singing down" in the market. As a product that contributed more than half, the sales of iPhone in China market plummeted by 24% at the beginning of the year, which attracted many investors’ concerns.

For the iPhone, although it occupies an absolute leading position in the global high-end smart phone market, the innovation of squeezing toothpaste every year attracts many users’ dissatisfaction. After the strong return of Huawei, the position of iPhone in China market has also been faltering. As far as the current environment is concerned, AI will be a lifeline for Apple in the short term, but the specific planning and application are still unknown.

"Users and the market want to see Apple make real innovations in the form and design of products such as iPhone, instead of Applying a set of molds for many years," an industrial chain person spoke to the titanium media app.

Folding screen, as a category that has been in mass production for 5 years, has become a sharp weapon for non-iOS mobile phone camp to break through in the high-end market, and the market is also looking forward to the release of Apple folding screen.

Although Apple’s style is "conservative" and the requirements for products are very high, the folding screen has been delayed, which also puzzles many fruit powders. Before, there were many rumors in the market, but in the end they all went away.

Judging from the current news, Apple’s folding screen has been developed for several years and will be released around 2027, the 20th anniversary of the release of the iPhone. However, at that time, in the face of Samsung and Huawei, which have been marketized for nearly 10 years, can Apple’s folding screen be "crushed by the latecomers"?

Mobile phone, tablet, PC, what will be Apple’s first folding screen?

Counterpoint predicts that by 2027, the global shipment of folding screen smartphones is expected to exceed 100 million units. CICC research also pointed out that the iteration of folding screen products will accelerate in 2022, and it is estimated that the global shipment of folding screen mobile phones is expected to reach 80 million units in 2025.

It is worth mentioning that statistics show that the interest rate of iOS users in folding screen mobile phones has reached 58%, and rumors about Apple’s folding screen planning and cancellation in the market have been constant.

At the beginning of the year, it was reported that Apple suspended the development of the foldable iPhone because of concerns about the durability of the folding screen. It is understood that Apple has been in contact with Samsung Display and LG Display before, but from the samples given, it still does not meet Apple’s standards, which is the main reason why Apple suspended the foldable iPhone project.

However, judging from the progress of related patents, Apple is still accelerating the layout of folding screen products.

A few days ago, the list published by the US Trademark and Patent Office showed that Apple obtained a patent on folding screen, covering a variety of products including iPhone, tablet computer and notebook computer. By making textured glass by chemical method, the problem of glass breakage at the folding place is solved. Moreover, it can effectively deal with the crease problem of the folding screen.

It is also reported that Apple transferred some core personnel of the Apple Vision Pro team to the folding screen project team, and internal executives revealed that the release of the first folding screen iPhone will be postponed until 2026, and more advanced technologies will be adopted, which is expected to be thinner and lighter than competitors’ models.

Regarding the release plan of this online foldable iPhone, Tianfeng International analyst Guo Ming Yi said that his latest survey shows that the only foldable product that Apple has a clear development schedule at present is the MacBook with a display of about 20.3, which is expected to be mass-produced in 2027.

In addition, the above-mentioned industry chain people told the titanium media App that Apple will enter the folding screen market with a high probability, but the test will be the iPad first, not the iPhone. Let’s look at the market reaction of the folding screen through the market reaction.

What is certain is that Apple has been developing foldable products for many years. What is uncertain is what Apple’s first foldable screen product will be, which may be a mobile phone, a tablet or a laptop.

Titanium Media App believes that from the perspective of market maturity, mobile phones and tablets are more likely. If it is a mobile phone, it will be listed on the occasion of the 20 th anniversary of the release of the iPhone. If it is a tablet, it is more likely to test the water first in 2026 and explore the road for the foldable iPhone in the following year.

Get up early and catch up with late episodes.

The picky apple is "too slow"

It has been more than five years since the release of the first mass-produced folding screen. In the past five years, the number of folding screen players has expanded from Samsung and Huawei to Xiaomi, OPPO, vivo and Glory, and the double-digit growth rate has also become a "clean stream" in the declining mobile phone market.

Although the current volume of the folding screen is not very large, one thing is certain, the direction of the folding screen is not wrong. In the view of Titanium Media App, the innovation of the current smart phone market has reached a bottleneck period. Before revolutionary innovation, folding screens are the right direction for mobile phone manufacturers to seek increments and enhance their experience.

Image source: IDC

According to the latest data released by IDC, the China folding screen mobile phone market shipped about 7.007 million units in 2023, up 114.5% year-on-year. Since the launch of the first product in 2019, the folding screen mobile phone market in China has grown by over 100% year-on-year for four consecutive years.

Guo Tianxiang, a senior analyst of IDC China, revealed to Titanium Media App that according to the forecast data of IDC in November 2023, the expected shipment of folding screen mobile phone market in China will be around 10 million in 2024, with the year-on-year growth rate still exceeding 50%, continuing the trend of rapid growth.

Talking about the rapid development of folding screen mobile phones, Zhao Jun, CEO of TCL Huaxing, told Titanium Media App last year, "About five years ago, folding mobile phones began to enter consumers’ field of vision. Three years ago, the market size of folding mobile phones was less than 1 million. This year, the market size of the whole folding mobile phone is close to 20 million, probably between 18 million and 20 million. The global shipment of folding mobile phones is basically growing at several times a year. We believe that folding mobile phones are the main innovation and growth point of product innovation and iteration in the field of smart phones. "

In an article about Apple Vision Pro, Vanity Fair revealed that on the edge of Infinite Loop in Apple’s old campus, there is an unremarkable low-rise building called "Mariani 1", which contains some imaginary products that Apple is developing, including the foldable iPhone.

Domestic folding screen products in 2023, titanium media App drawing

Compared with Samsung and Huawei, Apple’s research on foldable products is not too late, and may even be earlier. However, in terms of the progress of mass production and the attitude towards the market, Apple is much slower. Even if the product requirements are high, if the foldable product is released in 2026, it will be seven years later than Samsung and Huawei.

In contrast, Apple Watch is only two or three years later than Samsung. According to the incomplete statistics of Titanium Media App, in 2023, a total of 7 domestic brands released 13 folding screen products, including left and right folding and up and down folding. Among the head brands, Apple has not released related products.

In fact, it is understandable that the foldable project has been "difficult to produce" because Apple is so slow. On the one hand, folding screens are currently aimed at high-end user groups, which is a weapon for domestic brands to break through, and this is also the main battlefield of iPhone. From the perspective of sales volume, the core position of iPhone in the high-end market has not wavered. In addition, although the folding screen has a high growth rate, the tens of millions of volumes are still a small category compared with the annual sales of smart phones exceeding 1 billion. Therefore, the smaller competitive pressure has not made Apple feel a sense of urgency.

On the other hand, there are still many problems with folding screens, such as creases, especially small creases, which will become more obvious after long-term use. There are also the balance between thinness and performance, system-level optimization, etc., which are also the development problems faced by folding screens. But in the face of the future, there is still a question. By 2026, can Apple really solve these problems? Or can’t Huawei and Samsung solve it?

In addition, considering the impact of the iPhone in the market, even if the volume is currently small, Apple should indeed accelerate the mass production of folding screen products. Guo Ming said that the market consensus of iPhone shipment in 2024 was 220-225 million units, and now it has started to be repaired, and it is close to its previous forecast of 200 million units. Guo Tianxiang pointed out that the folding screen, which has greatly improved the product form, is more likely to attract consumers’ attention and stimulate their desire to change machines.

More challenges lie ahead.

For Apple, once the folding screen product is launched, the initial big sale is foreseeable, and its strict requirements will inevitably lead to the promotion of the entire foldable industrial chain. It is understood that Samsung Display is a panel company that has more scandals with Apple. It is reported that if Apple mass-produces folding screen products around 2026, it will be exclusively supplied by Samsung Display, which has supplied panels for Samsung folding screen mobile phones for many years, and it will be more suitable for Apple’s requirements in terms of production and technical maturity.

However, in the later stage, based on cost considerations, Apple will also cooperate with more panel manufacturers, just like the straight iPhone, which will promote the improvement of domestic panel supply chain technology. At present, in the folding screen supply chain, domestic products are on the rise, but we must also recognize the gap. For example, in the folding screen patent, according to Watt Intelligence, the folding screen patent obtained by Samsung Display is four times that of global competitors, and it is still far ahead.

As one of the most anticipated products in the market, in addition to the release time, there are still many challenges before Apple. First, how to set the price. As we all know, the current price of iPhone has exceeded 10,000 yuan. How to divide the price of foldable version from that of straight screen, and in which range, is something that needs careful consideration. After all, no matter how strong the product is, once the price exceeds five figures, many people will still be discouraged.

The second is how to balance the product form, lightness and performance, and the choice of folding form. Guo Tianxiang pointed out that "thinness" has become the primary factor affecting consumers’ choice of folding screen mobile phones. However, if the pursuit of "thinness" blindly leads to the decline of reliability, it will directly affect consumers’ long-term choices in the future.

At the same time, the overall cost of up and down discounts is lower, which will attract more female users. However, from the perspective of usage scenarios, the experience brought by big discounts will be better. IDC’s data also points out that although the price of vertical folding products is relatively lower, horizontal folding products have been favored by more consumers in China because they can better reflect the big screen experience of folding screen mobile phones.

"In 2023, the market share of cross-folded products increased to 68.1%, up 10.4 percentage points year-on-year. At present, in addition to being convenient to carry, consumers still lack the necessary use scenarios, and there is also a significant gap between the experience and the straight board machine at the same price, and there is still room for improvement in product quality. "

Finally, it is the experience of software. For a folding screen, if you just make the screen bigger, it will only make this category "chicken ribs". After doing a good job in hardware experience, how to make users feel the improvement brought by folding screen in software ecology is particularly important.

Guo Tianxiang told Titanium Media App that when everyone’s hardware enters a basically similar situation in the future, the software experience will become more and more important. To really make consumers use folding screen products for a long time, it is still necessary to create more suitable use scenarios through software and give full play to the characteristics and advantages of folding screens.

At present, the whole folding screen industry is still rushing, which is just Apple’s current "dilemma". More importantly, it may be to solve the problem of EU fines and accelerate the process of AI. As for the folding screen, what the market hopes is not to "skip the ticket". After all, the ten-year plan to build a car can be abandoned, and the foldable iPhone has to be a big question mark.

Rumors stab in the back hurt many entertainment stars.


    In the afternoon, Sammo Hung finally answered the phone. He said that he was in Shandong and thanked all those who cared about him. He also said that he was drinking Pu ‘er leisurely and nothing happened at all.

    News shouldn’t rush into "heaven"


    The sudden death of Sammo Hung, a Hong Kong martial arts superstar, was revealed by a mainland media, which was proved to be an oolong incident within a day, which was a false alarm. Although Sammo Hung himself, who was at the filming scene, has not come forward to express his position on this matter, or even filed a lawsuit because of anger, the media should really reflect on itself in this matter: Is it because people are "written" to death for no reason?


    As a journalist, when a news event happens, the first thing that comes to mind is to spread it as quickly as possible. This is understandable and even commendable, but how to pay more attention to "authenticity" and "accuracy" on the basis of ensuring "speed" is often overlooked. It is written in black and white like this, and even if the parties come forward to clarify, their bad influence has already existed objectively. There are not a few stars who "come back from the dead" in recent years. Andy Lau, Zhao Benshan and others will mysteriously "disappear" many times in a year. They are too lazy to pay attention to these rumors, but for the public who have the right to know, "being cheated" is small, and "losing trust in the media" is big. The story of "the wolf is coming" is something we heard when we were children, but it is no entertainment when we grow up.


    The media fabricated false reports


    A few days ago, a mainland newspaper published a news titled "Twenty Years of Wulitou Stephen Chow (Q Bar) Celebration-premiered in Beijing on the 24th, and three" star girls "appeared together". According to the report, the premiere of "Changjiang No.7" was held in the Beijing Workers’ Gymnasium on January 24th, and at the same time, as a celebration of Stephen Chow’s 20 years of filming, Stephen Chow will make a full appearance with his master. Not only will Degang Guo lead the disciples of Deyun Society to co-chair with Ceng Baoyi and Lin Zicong, but Sharla Cheung, Karen Mok, Zhao Wei and other "star girls" as well as Feng Xiaogang, Ge You, Zhao Benshan, S.H.E and Cai Qin will all support him.


    China Film: A certain media "makes no sense" to mislead the audience


    In this regard, China Film Group, as the main investor of the film, responded that it was false news, and the premiere was indeed scheduled for the 24th, but the contents mentioned in the newspaper were not confirmed by the film, and they were all fabricated at random. A person in charge of China Film also said humorously that although Stephen Chow’s Wulitou is very popular, as a media, please don’t be "Wulitou". The media plays a guiding role for readers. Ordinary people generally can’t tell whether the news is true or false. The practice of fabricating news in order to attract attention will lead to bad social influence. In addition, according to the person in charge of China Film Publicity, "Changjiang No.7" will be premiered in several major cities in the mainland and several countries in Southeast Asia after its premiere in Hong Kong on the 23rd.


    At present, the premiere ceremony of "Changjiang No.7" in Beijing has been confirmed to be held in Happy Valley on 24th, and its title is tentatively "Stephen Chow has been filming for 20 years? Light and shadow stay in the New Year and be moved by the grand ceremony-cum the premiere ceremony of "Changjiang No.7" in China Lunar New Year. By the n, beijing happy valley will become the theme park of Changjiang No.7.


    A reader who claimed to be an extra actor in the drama "The Past in the South of the Yangtze River" telephoned the reporter and said, "At about 5 pm on the 9th, Zhou Jie had a conflict with a leading actress over the issue of leaving her position, and then Zhou Jie shouted’ Stop filming’. Just as Zhou Jie turned to leave, the actress suddenly made a remark that angered Zhou Jie. He turned and jumped on the other side to start work, but fortunately he was held by the staff, which did not lead to bad results. But Zhou Jie kept cursing the actress and swearing! It was not until the director and producer came forward that the storm was calmed down! " When the reporter asked which actress it was, the extra actress said that she only knew that she played Su Weici in the film. After checking the cast list of "The Past in the South of the Yangtze River", the reporter found that it was Shumei Lian who played Su Weici in the same company as Zhou Jie.


    Zhou Jie’s agent, Miss Huang, was contacted by the reporter. She said that she was not in Nanjing, but she talked to Zhou Jie on the phone every day. "He has been in a good mood recently and has never heard of any conflict with anyone. It is very li kely that it is a trial play, and the extras mistakenly think that there is a conflict. Besides, he and Shumei Lian both belong to our company, and they usually have a good relationship! " Zhu Zhiying, the producer of The Past in the South of the Yangtze River, told the reporter with a smile: "There was no Shumei Lian’s play that day, so how could there be a conflict? On that day, we filmed a big scene. There were more than 300 people on the scene. The scene was really chaotic, but there was no conflict. The actors are very dedicated, and Zhou Jie has been on the set all the time, and he keeps guiding young actors into the show. It must be a mistake! "


    Hu Mei held a press conference: there are many doubts


    At 9: 30 in the morning, the reporter received a text message: "At four o’clock today, director Hu Mei and her lawyer plan to hold a rumor conference on the online rumor article of actor Ding Jun, and you are invited to take the time to attend." In the afternoon, the reporter rushed to the press conference site, waited for nearly 40 minutes, but was told that director Hu Mei could not attend because of an important meeting. The reporters offered to interview Hu Mei himself, hoping that the press conference would be postponed or a short telephone connection would be made, but the alternative way was rejected. The producer, production director and lawyer of the 24-episode TV series "Deep Blue Sea", which was supervised by Hu Mei, said that they were authorized by Hu Mei to hold it on their behalf. However, as the press conference progressed, things became more and more suspicious and full of doubts …


    At eleven o’clock in the morning, director Hu Mei made a solemn statement on a portal website, at the beginning of which he wrote: "I was surprised to see a rumor article downloaded from famous websites such as XX and XXX from my assistant this morning …" Then he refuted the details of the article one by one. From morning till 11: 00 noon, director Hu Mei’s quick and fierce reaction is quite different from his previous style of dealing with the media.


    The four people who held the press conference on behalf of Director Hu Mei were the producers and production directors of the TV series "Blue Sea is De ep" and Hu Mei’s entrusted lawyer. In response to the reporter’s questions, they didn’t say anything further except emphasizing Director Hu Mei’s statement. The entrusted lawyer also said that he had just been entrusted. To in vestigate the criminal responsibility or civil liability of the rumor maker, "we still need to sue the object" and "it is not up to us to decide whether to find it, but to ask the public security department". These hasty answers are obviously unsatisfactory. The reporter inquired about it, and the answer was that the TV series was about to air. At the end of the press conference, one of the female producers also stepped down to send a "taxi fare" to the reporters present, which was rejected by some media.


    Hu Mei is a highly respected director in China. With his excellent works, the public and the media are generally in awe of him. Originally, it was a normal behavior to defend moral reputation. After a day of tossing, it seems to be a boring headless case. Only the dirty "hidden rules" hide in the dark. From beginning to end, the reporter has been paying attention to clues and trying to see through the true face behind this incident. Is it the ubiquitous entertainment law that makes the reporter’s vigilance too tight? Or the phrase "the curtain has just been opened" is chilling.


    Ding Jun reacted fiercely: he would not sell himself for hype.


    After director Hu Mei issued a statement, Ding Junwu Dandan and his wife called director Hu Mei’s assistant separately, saying that they didn’t know about the blog before, and they also wanted to investigate the source of the rumor. Wu Dandan, the wife of Ding Jun, sent a short message to Hu Mei, the director’s assistant yesterday afternoon: "The statement is to be sent. After all, we are also victims, but we are not public figures, and we have no spare money to hire someone to stare at the Internet for us every day, so we know it is too late. However, before the matter is investigated and cleared up, we think there are some inappropriate words in Hu Mei’s statement. Our level is not vulgar enough to use prostitution to speculate, and vicious people will show their tails sooner or later, so wait and see. "


    Wu Dandan then sent a text message again saying: "This matter is not just a statement for us. I think the nausea in our hearts should be solved through legal channels. I also hope that you will have a good look at the article written in the name of Ding Jun to analyze its authenticity! Solemnly declare that our nausea and anger are no less than yours! "


    Wu Dandan also sent a text message to Wang Lu, vice president of Shenzhen Dianguang Media, who attended the conference: "I wonder if this person wants to destroy Ding Jun or Hu Mei? Help me analyze it. "


    Morning News (Reporter Yang Lianjie) Andy Lau’s company, Yingyi Entertainment, invested in the filming of Crazy Stone in 2006, which was a great success. Since then, it has been famous in the industry for being good at discovering new directors. A few days ago, some people used the name of Yingyi Entertainment to promote their own films and actors, which led to the urgent rumor of Yingyi Entertainment.


    Recently, it has been reported that an actor is a new generation of young actors with full deductive ability, which was discovered by Andy Lau’s "Hong Kong Yingyi Entertainment Company" in China. It is also said that Yingyi Entertainment Company is holding the "Focus Fight II Open Recruitment Competition for Asian New Star Directors" to search for the next director Ning Hao, and that "the winner of the (director) will receive our direct investment without interfering with the creative process, and Andy Lau, the superstar himself, can participate in the performance unconditionally as needed, and at the same time invite some big directors as producers.’ At present, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige and Tian Zhuangzhuang are all the targets we plan to invite.’ "


    In response to such news, Hong Kong Yingyi Entertainment Co., Ltd. urgently denied the rumor yesterday, saying that the news was not sent by their company, and was deeply dissatisfied that "the inaccurate news was widely reported, and at the same time, the report included false information that was inconsistent with the facts". The person in charge of the company said that Yingyi Entertainment does h ave a new shooting plan, Focus Fight, and is also recruiting writers, directors and actors. However, the news that Andy Lau created a new star mentioned in the report is all fiction. "Yingyi Entertainment has not reached any cooperation consensus with the actor and the production company starring in the film." Yingyi Entertainment said in a statement that Focus Fight is still in the stage of recruit ing writers, directors and actors. Interested parties can browse the details on their official website, and the details of the second round of recruitment of Focus Fight will be announced on the official website later.


    Entertainment circle is really dangerous.


    Entertainment circle is very dangerous, this sentence has been said by countless people countless times, but there are still countless men and women who sharpen their heads and want to get in, for the sake of course, the glamour floating in the world and the splendor of luxurious food. However, after hard work, some people became popular, some people crossed like meteors, and some people didn’t make it out at all. They paid hard work, sweat, tears and, I’m afraid, money and body.


    For young people who have just entered the industry, they know only a limited number of people in the circle. Of course, they should seize as much as possible if there is a seemingly insignificant opportunity, and this opportunity often seems mild and harmless. "Have dinner with director XXX and get familiar with it", that’s all. However, when this "director" painted an infinite bright future, and "accidentally" revealed that he was preparing to invest tens of millions of yuan in a big drama, and then said that "you have great potential, but you need to polish it carefully" and need to "talk to me alone", is it still up? For a newcomer, it is definitely a problem.


    Like the fake Andy Lau company recruiting directors and actors, I’m afraid many young people in the industry will be moved when they first hear it, and they can get a lift in Andy Lau. This is a blessing that has been repaired for many years! I believe that although the rumor is timely, many people have sent their resumes to be summoned.


    In the entertainment circle, strength is very important, and connections are more important. In an environment controlled by people, there are many shady things everywhere. It is probably not easy for anyone to get away with it.

The wound on Xiaojun’s wrist.

  The 21-year-old Xiaojun hurried through the breakfast cooked by his mother and returned to the game world of "the glory of the king" — — He has been playing for three hours. Mother Wang Li went out to buy food. After more than 10 minutes, she suddenly received a phone call from her son and only heard a sentence "Help me"! When my mother came home, the scene in front of her still haunted her: there was a big pool of blood on the living room floor, and the blood spread to the bedroom. Lying in bed and covered in blood, my son pointed to a fruit knife and told his mother, "I pricked my own … …”

  What happened?

  Stab yourself 13 times.

  The operation lasted for 5 hours.

  On the morning of the 6th, Xiaojun was lying on the hospital bed in the hand surgery ward of Xuzhou Renci Hospital, his eyes were wandering, but he would stay on the TV on the opposite wall from time to time, where an NBA basketball game was being broadcast. Xiaojun said that he used to like watching basketball very much. After he became addicted to online games, he seldom watched games.

  Xiaojun stabbed himself 13 times, and his arms, neck and abdomen were wrapped in gauze, but he seemed to recover well. Although the wound still hurts, every time his mother Wang Li hears his casual groan and asks, he always says "it doesn’t matter".

  After Xiaojun was injured and admitted to the hospital, Wang Li almost never left. Wang Li said that the child is introverted, but very obedient. She rarely scolds him at ordinary times. Now that the child has made a mistake, she can’t bear to be harsh.

  Talking about the child’s injury, 57-year-old Wang Li’s face is full of doubts. On the morning of December 1st, she cooked breakfast as usual. Xiaojun woke up early, holding his cell phone in bed. At 9 o’clock, Wang Li went out to buy food, and she casually greeted the child. More than 10 minutes later, while bargaining with vendors in the food market, Wang Li’s mobile phone rang. After being connected, she heard a painful voice: "Mom, help me!" "

  It only took Wang Li a few minutes to run home and open the door. The scene in front of her frightened her. There is a big pool of blood on the living room floor, and on the floor leading to the bedroom, it is like being drawn with a huge brush. Wang Li ran into the bedroom and found Xiaojun lying beside the bed, covered in blood. Xiaojun had just finished the phone call, and the hand holding the mobile phone was still covered with blood, and the other hand was tightly covering his abdomen. Xiaojun was still conscious at that time and said softly, "I stabbed myself with a knife."

  Xiaojun was immediately sent to Xuzhou Renci Hospital. The doctor in the hand surgery ward of the hospital said that the patient stabbed his neck, upper limbs, abdomen and buttocks with a fruit knife. The hospital immediately organized experts to perform surgery to repair blood vessels, nerves and tendons. After more than 5 hours of emergency rescue, the operation was successful.

  Experts told Zi Niu news reporter that the injured lost a lot of blood, but fortunately they were sent to the hospital in time, which did not cause serious consequences.

  Experience before the outbreak

  A

  After graduating from technical school, he has changed nearly 10 jobs.

  Xiaojun’s family is very ordinary. He is the only child in the family, and his parents were both workers. His mother retired from the unit a few years ago to take care of the family full-time, and his father retired from the unit and looked for a job everywhere. In addition to retirement wages, father’s income from odd jobs has become the main source of income for the family. Although the family is not well-off, in Wang Li’s view, "at least I have never suffered from children."

  After graduating from a technical school in Xuzhou three years ago, Xiaojun tried nearly 10 jobs intermittently. Recently, he just quit his job as a tower crane on the construction site. Wang Li and her husband have never made financial demands on their children. They feel that their children are still young and it is not time to put pressure on them.

  "He doesn’t think about playing games every day instead of working hard," said Wang Li. Xiaojun worked in internal security for nearly a year and often worked overtime. When he came home, his children were too tired to turn on the computer. Wang Li thinks that when Xiaojun is resting at home, playing games to kill time is also a kind of rest.

  Wang Li said that Xiaojun is somewhat introverted, but very obedient. There is no obstacle to family communication at ordinary times, so she never understands how children can make "stupid things". The only reason she can think of is that "it’s all from playing games"!

  Wang Li doesn’t know that Xiaojun’s recent favorite game is called the glory of the king. She just thinks that Xiaojun has no idea to go out to work since he played this game.

  B

  I lost a few games in the game and felt "particularly frustrated in my life"

  Like many peers, Xiaojun has been playing games for almost 10 years. Regarding the glory of the king, Xiaojun said that this game is not very good, but it is really "addictive".

  Xiaojun doesn’t think he did something stupid because he was addicted to playing games. "That impulse was actually an outbreak of long-term depression," Xiaojun told Zi Niu news reporter. He had just lost several games at the time of the incident, and suddenly felt that his life was meaningless: "I was particularly frustrated."

  The "frustration" in Xiaojun’s mouth probably began after graduating from a technical school three years ago. The school recommended him to a machinery factory. Xiaojun majored in mechatronics, but the job here is assembly. "What I have learned is completely useless." More than 20 students who joined this enterprise with Xiaojun soon left their jobs one after another. Xiaojun said that he could tolerate the low-paying and boring work, and it was the daily commuting time that prompted him to follow in the footsteps of his classmates. From home to the enterprise, Xiaojun has to take the bus for about 1 hour, and then transfer to the factory car. It takes 2 hours to get down. "I need to get up at 5 o’clock in the morning and get off work at 6 o’clock in the evening. I usually get home after 8 o’clock."

  The second job, recommended by the school, is a waiter in a catering enterprise in Xuzhou. Wang Li feels that this job has stimulated the child. "The unit leader found fault everywhere because the child’s hair was a little long at that time." She and her husband both supported Xiaojun’s resignation.

  C

  I once had a fierce family dispute because I wanted to go out and make a break.

  The two jobs were not smooth, and the parents never blamed themselves. On the contrary, Xiaojun felt a little discouraged. Xiaojun said that his father was retiring from the unit at that time, and his family had certain economic pressure. He was eager to share it with his family earlier.

  After quitting his job as a waiter, Xiaojun tried to work in a car decoration shop. The main job every day is to wash the car for the guests. "It’s very tired and worthless." A few months later, he tried the position of tower crane on the construction site. This time, his parents asked him to quit the job. The mother felt that the child often worked at night and the lighting on the construction site was not good. "What if the child fell?"

  The longest job Xiaojun has done is the internal security work of security enterprises. After working for nearly a year, Xiaojun is even more depressed, his salary is not high, and he often works overtime. The most uncomfortable thing is that most of his colleagues are uncles in their 40 s and 50 s. "There is no common language at all, and I feel that I am wasting my life."

  Xiaojun had a fierce argument with his parents. He once proposed to go to a city with better economic conditions. Unexpectedly, his parents immediately objected. Xiaojun’s father said, "You haven’t even washed your clothes. Can you take care of yourself?" Mother Wang Li always said that she doesn’t need Xiaojun to earn much money, just live a stable life, so far away from home, how can parents take care of him?

  Although his parents don’t blame him, he feels "very useless"

  In the communication with Zi Niu journalists, Wang Li mentioned many times that real life is too harsh on children, and she doesn’t understand why society can’t provide children with a stable job. She once thought of turning to some institutions to provide some employment guidance and pre-job training for her children.

  Every time Xiaojun leaves his job, his parents never blame him, which makes Xiaojun feel "very useless". His way of venting his emotions is still online games. Xiaojun said that he actually has no "internet addiction", but he just thinks that what else can he do besides playing games? Since junior high school, he seems to have adapted to this life, and many of his classmates are like himself, spending their spare time in front of the computer. Xiaojun doesn’t have many friends in reality. On the contrary, he has met many people in the online game world, but apart from chatting about games, he and netizens rarely have other topics.

  When Xiaojun was engaged in internal security work, he alienated the game. Because he often worked overtime, he was very tired after returning home and lost the impulse to play games.

  Father likes to keep fit. During that time, Xiaojun followed his father to keep fit. Father and son often go to the gym together. After his father is busy with his work, Xiaojun insists on it, and his father often praises him for his "fruitful" practice. This hobby other than playing games failed to enrich Xiaojun’s life after all. All kinds of difficulties in work are still going on, and Xiaojun feels that he is getting more and more depressed until he has a heart-wrenching outbreak.

  Expert pulse-taking

  Find your own position

  Make up "career planning"

  Zhou Xianyang, deputy director of the Student Affairs Department of Jiangsu Normal University and director of the Employment and Entrepreneurship Guidance Service Center, believes that from Xiaojun’s employment experience, he has always been in a passive state of choosing a job and failed to find his own position. His various reasons for resignation seem more like avoiding.

  Zhou Xianyang suggested that Xiaojun might as well make a career plan first, find a correct position according to his own situation and stick to it. In fact, ordinary posts also need to learn and pay, but also need to try and practice. The initial stage is more about experience, and through our own efforts, we can develop step by step.

  Zhou Xianyang also suggested that Xiaojun’s parents should have confidence in their children and encourage them instead of "protecting" them blindly. In modern society, how many people don’t face pressure and challenges?

  Zhu Haimei, the first batch of professional psychological counselors in China and a senior psychological teacher in Xuzhou No.1 Middle School, believes that from Xiaojun’s experience and various actions, he has the characteristics of "hollow man" in psychology, and he is confused about his future and doesn’t know what he can do or want to do. She suggested that Xiaojun should first find the goal of life and make up the course of "career planning"; Secondly, Xiaojun has a certain lack of self-awareness ability. With the help of professionals in psychological counseling institutions, he can conduct "self-analysis" to understand what his inner desire is and whether it is in line with his own ability.

  Zhu Haimei also hopes that the parents of the children will boldly let go and let the children "take a trip."

  coda

  "I want to live a good life and work hard."

  After a few days in hospital, Xiaojun finally put down the game. He told Zi Niu news reporter that he fell down this time and he would get up again. "I won’t play games again." Xiaojun still hopes to find a job with a professional counterpart, but he also said that he had a problem with his mentality in the past and had too high expectations for himself. In the future, he will put down too many ideas and work as long as he is almost the same. He will not give up because of a little setback: "I want to live and work well."

  When Xiaojun said these words, Zi Niu news reporter noticed that Wang Li, whose mood had been calm, secretly wiped her tears behind her back.
