[Ministry of Commerce spokesman answered questions on the revision of semiconductor export control measures in the United States]

Cailian, March 31 ST, the spokesman of the Ministry of Commerce answered questions on the revision of semiconductor export control measures in the United States.

 

Q: On March 29th, EST, the US Department of Commerce issued an announcement to revise the semiconductor export control rules issued by the US on October 17th, 2023. What is China’s comment on this?

 

A: China has noticed that the United States has revised the export control measures for semiconductors, which is less than half a year since the last time the United States introduced measures. Enterprises in all countries, including American enterprises, hope to have a stable and predictable business environment. The US generalizes the concept of national security, arbitrarily modifies the rules and imposes strict control measures, which not only sets more obstacles for Chinese and American enterprises to carry out normal economic and trade cooperation, but also imposes a heavier compliance burden, and also causes great uncertainty to the global semiconductor industry. This seriously affects the mutually beneficial cooperation between Chinese and foreign enterprises and damages their legitimate rights and interests. China firmly opposes this. The semiconductor industry is highly globalized. After decades of development, it has formed an industrial pattern in which you have me and I have you. This is the result of the joint action of market rules and enterprise choices. China is the largest semiconductor market in the world. China is willing to work with all parties to strengthen mutually beneficial cooperation and promote the security and stability of the global semiconductor industry chain supply chain.

The New Portrait of "Old Sparrow in Dongting Lake" He Guangwei: 160 Years’ Remembrance of Pingjiang Dried Sauce

Editor’s note:The old sparrow in Dongting Lake-seen the wind and waves. The Dongting is wide, and there is a spirit that makes people stop and move at the folds of the waves. Yueyang, which is connected with the river and the sea, has both "Baling Victory" and Yuezhou New Singing. Recently, Red Net reporters came to Yueyang to talk with a group of craftsmen and make a new portrait of "Dongting Lake Old Sparrow".

Pingjiang dried sauce is very popular with customers.
Red Net Time Reporter Xiao Yi Yueyang Report
Longevity dried sauce is a traditional flavor specialty in Changshou Town, Pingjiang County, Hunan Province, with a long history and unique taste.
According to Pingjiang County Records, in the seventh year of Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty (1857), an old man named He Fenglin in Changshou Town, Pingjiang County, Yueyang County, constantly pondered and repeatedly developed tofu to make dried salt skin, and gradually invented and formed "dried sauce with many treasures and five spices". Its formula and production are strictly confidential and handed down from generation to generation. Duozhen spiced sauce is black, shiny, fresh, tender, salty, spicy, sweet and fragrant. When eaten in the mouth, it is crispy and chewy, appetizing, and has a unique taste, which is very popular.
Sauce-dried business is better than wine for 160 years.
Old man He Fenglin became the founder of Changshou Dried Sauce, and Changshou Town is famous for its dried sauce, which has been passed down for more than 160 years. Speaking of it, He Guangwei, a 52-year-old resident of Changshou Town, is the fifth generation inheritor of Changshou Dried Sauce, and also the municipal non-genetic inheritor of the memory of Changshou Dried Sauce.
At that time, He Weifeng, the eldest son of the old man He Fenglin, owned a hotel in Longevity Street. The cold dishes served at that time were nothing more than peanuts and pig’s head meat. The old man He Weifeng thought, Longevity Street people love tofu. If only tofu could be served as a cold dish. After many experiments, the old man used the traditional technology of marinating and baking food in Longevity Street. He marinated the special dried bean curd with chicken soup, fennel, cinnamon, etc., and then baked it slowly with charcoal fire to make it tasty. Finally, he produced the dried bean curd with square inch size, copper coin thickness, black and shiny, and fragrant, and named it "Duozhen Sauce Dried". One turn of cotton thread is used every ten pieces, which is called one tube. Because it tastes mellow, chewy and refreshing, drinkers always bring back a few tubes of sauce after drinking in the store. In this way, the sauce business is even better than the wine business.
Legend has it that Hunan students in the Qing Dynasty went to Beijing to take the exam, and when they were in palace examination, they talked about the specialties of Sanxiang, especially the spiced dried sauce, which was heard by the emperor and paid tribute to the emperor. In order to let the emperor’s concubines taste the delicious and original sauce, it is often your official duty to ride thousands of miles quickly and deliver it day and night. At that time, there was a saying that spiced sauce was famous in the Central Plains and made a splash in the capital.
The dry processing of longevity sauce must use local superior August soybeans with full grains, which are large, uniform in color and high in pulp yield. After the pulp is produced by the stone mill, the spoon slowly scoops the pulp into the cylinder, and the tofu juice is pressed into the press box and pressed into two pieces, and cut into one-inch square tofu slices, that is, marinating a cup of tea in a halogen pot.
Good dried sauce is very particular about marinating. The ingredients of the marinade are produced in the mountain forest, including star anise, fennel, cinnamon, butyl, mother diced, cumin, etc., supplemented by twenty-six spices such as cinnamon, Jiang Mo and Lin Zong. The "colored" dried incense sticks are put into a chicken soup pot and boiled to taste, and then they are soaked in sesame oil when they come out of the stove. "Bean fragrance, halogen fragrance, chicken fragrance, roasted fragrance and sesame fragrance" are called "five fragrances".
"Cinnamon, star anise and other condiments are all from the old mountainous areas. My mother has always told me that these things are still good, fragrant and memorable in the mountains. " He Guangwei said.
At present, He Guangwei and investors have established new factories, and new equipment has been put into commissioning one after another. It is expected that construction will officially start at the end of the year. It is estimated that 5 tons of dried sauce can be produced a day, which is 10 times that of the previous small workshops.
Although the degree of mechanized production of dried sauce has been continuously improved, He Guangwei has been inheriting the ancient skills of his ancestors, especially the core link of marinating. He Guangwei thinks that machinery can’t replace the traditional technology on the issue of marinating. "There is no deliberate industrial standard for the color and softness of dried sauce, and it is purely based on feeling." He Guangwei said that his dried sauce should be marinated for 3 hours at a time, then dried for 2 hours and then marinated again, so it can be repeated twice. "Only in this way can you taste it!"
80% supermarkets in China sell long-lived dried sauce. Longevity wants to build a first-class characteristic dried sauce industrial town.
By the Republic of China, Changshou dried sauce had spread all over the border area of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi, and became a major specialty of Pingjiang. After the founding of New China, the public-private partnership, Changshou Supply and Marketing Cooperative hired the daughter-in-law of the old man He Weifeng as a technician to gradually expand the production of dried sauce.
During this period, the production technology and taste of dried sauce were also tentatively improved. Cotton cloth with sesame oil was poured into a large bowl and mixed in batches, and ingredients were boldly added, which not only met the requirements of batch production, but also greatly changed the taste. Under the planned production, ordinary people can’t eat it anytime and anywhere like in the past.
Longevity dried sauce has become a local pillar industry with its unique products. After the reform and opening up, He descendants registered and started the production and processing of "Duozhen Dried Sauce" and became the first individual industrial and commercial household in Changshou Town, Pingjiang. In 1994, they registered the trademark of "Duoqi Dried Sauce" and in 2004, they had the trademark right of "Duozhen Dried Sauce".
At the same time, colleagues from supply and marketing cooperatives have also come out to do business after they are familiar with the production technology of dried sauce, and started to produce dried sauce as self-employed. As a result, dried sauce manufacturers have mushroomed. After the reform and opening up, with the development of market economy, longevity dried sauce quickly went out of the county gate. The manufacturers are all over Beijing, Yunnan, Zhengzhou, Shanghai, Shenzhen and other places, and their products are exported to Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Europe, etc. The annual output value of Changshou Town alone has reached more than 4 million yuan, and it has become
"At that time, the dried sauce sold well. When selling, only half of the windows were opened, people outside handed over money, and people inside delivered goods. There were often long queues outside." He Guangwei introduced.
At present, Changshou Town has 16 sauce-dried food processing enterprises, nearly 100 small workshops and self-employed, with an annual output value of 150 million yuan and more than 2,000 jobs. There are many brands such as Changshou Duozhen, Duoqi, Xibao, Pengshi, Changshou Shop and Guozhen, with more than ten flavors, which can meet the needs of all kinds of people. At present, 50% of cities in China have Pingjiang dried sauce production plants, and 80% of supermarkets have dried sauces on shelves. There are as many as 100 thousand employees in Pingjiang who are engaged in the processing and sales of dried sauce food in other places.
In the next step, Changshou Town will build a cluster industrial park, a specialized scale market and a standardized production base in accordance with the innovative ideas of industrial clustering, focusing on production and literature, and integrating production and town, and implement supporting functions of production, supply and sales. With the help of border advantages, it will highlight brands, tap resources, promote the coordinated development of tourism and leisure industries and industries, and build a national first-class characteristic dried sauce industrial town.

  On November 15th, the British Cambridge Dictionary also named the word of the year-"hallucinate". The word is also related to artificial intelligence. The traditional definition of hallucinate is "something that seems to see, hear, feel or smell that doesn’t exist, usually because of health reasons or taking drugs", but now the dictionary has added a new definition to it, that is, "false information produced by artificial intelligence".

  Webster’s Dictionary announced on November 27th that its annual vocabulary was "authentic". According to Webster’s publishing company, authentic was also a hot word in previous years, but in 2023, artificial intelligence technology became a hot topic, and the search volume of this word surged.

  Peter sokolovski, a special editor of Webster’s Dictionary, said, "We regard 2023 as a year when authenticity is in crisis." In his view, when people doubt the authenticity of things more and more, they pay more and more attention to authenticity.

  As Kevin Ruth, a science and technology writer in The New York Times, said, "I feel an ominous premonition that AI has crossed a threshold and the world will never be the same."

  The "recorder" of social change

  Asia pays more attention to the present and crisis.

  Looking forward to the changes brought about by scientific and technological innovation to mankind, it seems that it is somewhat difficult to ponder. People in many areas seem to have a more pragmatic vision and pay more attention to the present. "Tax", "Cheating" and "Forgetting righteousness for profit" … What are the stories behind the annual vocabulary selected by Asian countries?

  On December 10th, the 2023 idiom published by South Korea’s Professor News was "Forgetting righteousness for profit". The recommendation committee composed of 20 Korean university professors recommended 26 idioms, and Professor News selected 5 idioms to conduct a questionnaire survey among 1315 Korean university professors. The results show that "seeing profit and forgetting righteousness" ranks first.

  According to Yonhap News Agency, Byung ki Kim, an honorary professor at Jeonbuk University who recommended "forgetting righteousness over profit", said, "Korean politicians pay more attention to their own interests than guiding the people correctly. These politicians formulate and implement policies in a direction that is beneficial to their own interests. "

  On the same day, the Chinese character of Malaysia in 2023 was announced and the word "Gui" was elected. Wu Tianquan, president of the Chinese General Assembly Hall in Malaysia, said that people chose "Gui" as the Chinese character of the year, indicating that rising prices have become a livelihood issue, and the government should pay more attention to people with economic pressure and provide them with more welfare measures.

  On December 12th, the abbot of Kiyomizu Temple in Kyoto wrote the word "tax" at the annual Chinese character conference in Japan. After 2014, the word "tax" was elected as the Japanese Chinese character of the year for the second time.

  The Japanese Chinese Character Proficiency Testing Association believes that in the past year, there have been endless discussions about tax increase in Japan, plus the government’s one-time fixed tax reduction for taxes such as income tax, as well as the reform of the consumption tax invoice system and the strictness of the tax audit benchmark in hometown, which have triggered heated discussions in society.

  Japan’s "Kyoto News" reported that the word "tax" reflected the anxiety and annoyance of the Japanese people over the debate on tax increase and tax reduction this year.

  On December 25th, Lianhe Zaobao of Singapore announced the voting results of Chinese characters for the year of "Word Narrating One Year" in 2023, and the word "Cheat" was elected as the Chinese character of Singapore in 2023.

  According to data released by Scam Advisor, a global anti-fraud alliance and data service provider, in October 2023, from August 2022 to August 2023, fraud gangs defrauded S $1.4 trillion (about 7.54 trillion RMB) in the world, while Singapore lost about S $5,538 per capita, the highest in the world.

  Li Huiling, president of Singapore Chinese Media Group, said that "cheating" is a global behavior and a moral issue. "Now fraudsters don’t even have to take a look at the deceived object, and fraud is even more insensitive." Li Huiling believes that human beings spend more energy and resources on researching and developing new technologies and discussing climate change, but lack reflection on more essential human nature issues.

  Internet slang became popular.

  Touch the beating pulse of "Generation Z"

  According to The New York Times, on December 3rd, Oxford University Press, the second oldest academic publishing house in the world, chose the online buzzword "rizz" as its word of the year.

  According to the report, "rizz", a slang term commonly used in emerging networks, means "style, charm, attraction" or "ability to attract romantic partners or sexual partners". This word is taken from the middle part of the English word "charisma".

  In June, 2023, British actor Tom Holland, who starred in the Spider-Man series, contributed to the word with fire. In an interview, he said, "I have no rizz (charm), and my rizz (charm) is limited." With the video circulating on the Internet, this word is used very frequently.

  According to the data of Oxford University Press, compared with the previous year, the overall usage of the word rizz has increased by about 15 times, and a large number of expression packs have been ignited.

  "The choice of 2023 reflects how social media has accelerated the pace of language change exponentially," said kasper grath Wall, president of Oxford Language Publishing Group.

  China’s "Generation Z" also has its own key words of the year. A few days ago, the editorial department of Shanghai’s "Talking about Words" launched the top ten buzzwords of the year.

  Commando-style tourism, conspicuous bags, wearing dopamine, taking a child, emotional value … These online hot words are funny, self-deprecating or open-minded, but they vividly describe the living conditions of young people in China. Among a bunch of key words in 2023, which one do you prefer? Come and sit in the right place! (End)

Optimizing and Adjusting Transportation Structure and Perfecting the Backbone Passage of Multimodal Transport in China

CCTV News:The Ministry of Transport held a press conference on October 31, and the relevant person in charge introduced the relevant situation of optimizing and adjusting the transportation structure in China, saying that it would improve the backbone channels of multimodal transport and strengthen transportation convergence.

In recent years, the Ministry of Transport and the National Development and Reform Commission have organized the construction of multimodal transport demonstration projects, and vigorously developed service modes such as sea-rail transport, land-air transport, public-rail transport and international transport. The data shows that in 2021, the first three batches of 70 multimodal transport demonstration projects completed about 6.2 million TEUs of container multimodal transport and opened more than 450 intermodal lines.

Han Jinghua, Deputy Director of the Department of Transport Services, Ministry of Transport:Focusing on the upgrading of railway transportation capacity and the upgrading of water transport system, we will speed up the completion of shortcomings. Highlight the leading position of railway in bulk cargo transportation and vigorously improve railway transportation capacity.

Han Jinghua said that it is necessary to greatly improve the comprehensive utilization efficiency of heavy-haul railways such as Haoji and Wazi, speed up the development of open-top box transportation, and promote the "revolution of iron" and "scattered collection" of bulk materials such as coal and ore. In 2021, 1.95 billion tons of railway coal was delivered nationwide, up 8.3% year-on-year.

In addition, the Ministry of Transport has also accelerated the improvement of inland water transport network, promoted the construction of port collection and distribution railways, and vigorously promoted the development of river-sea direct and river-sea combined transport. The data shows that "revolving iron" and "revolving water" have achieved remarkable results. The proportion of railway freight volume in the total social freight volume has increased from 7.8% in 2017 to 9.2% in 2021, the waterway freight volume has increased by 23.4% compared with 2017, and the road collection and distribution volume of bulk cargo in coastal ports has decreased by more than 400 million tons compared with 2017. The coal collection ports in 17 major ports, including Bohai Rim and Yangtze River Delta, have all been changed to railway and water transportation. In 2021, the port completed 7.54 million TEUs of container-iron-water combined transport, double that of 2017.

How will the real estate industry develop in the future? Clear!

On July 21st, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China’s Decision on Further Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese Modernization (hereinafter referred to as the Decision), which was deliberated and adopted by the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, was released. Among them, the "Decision" pointed out that the establishment of a housing system with both rent and purchase should be accelerated, and a new model of real estate development should be accelerated. Increase the construction and supply of affordable housing to meet the rigid housing needs of wage earners. Support the diversified and improved housing needs of urban and rural residents. Fully give the municipal governments the autonomy to regulate the real estate market, and allow the relevant cities to cancel or reduce the housing purchase restriction policy and cancel the standards for ordinary houses and non-ordinary houses due to the city’s policy. Reform the financing mode of real estate development and the pre-sale system of commercial housing. Improve the real estate tax system.

In recent years, the relationship between supply and demand in the real estate market has undergone major changes, the market is in a period of adjustment, and the land and property market policies are also changing accordingly. How to understand this change is an important prerequisite for better facing the next stage of development.

Analysts believe that the real estate-related expressions in the Decision are rich, including emphasizing and consolidating the original control ideas, such as building a new development model of real estate, increasing the supply of affordable housing, and giving municipal governments the right to control themselves. In some systems, it also puts forward the direction of breaking the situation, such as the pre-sale system of commercial housing and the real estate tax system.

For the changing real estate, these adjustments not only determine the development direction of the industry, but also re-anchor the macro-economic positioning of real estate.

From "Ensuring Growth" to "Steady Growth"

"Decision" on the real estate, to a certain extent, beyond the expectations of the outside world.

Chen Wenjing, director of market research at the Central Finger Research Institute, said that compared with the Decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Comprehensively Deepening Reform, which was deliberated and adopted by the Third Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee, the full text of the Decision of the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee focused on real estate in terms of "improving the social security system".

In addition, in the aspect of "deepening the reform of land system", there are also contents related to real estate, including allowing farmers to make full use of legally owned houses through leasing, shareholding and cooperation; Establish a coordination mechanism between the allocation of new urban construction land indicators and the increase of permanent population; Formulate policies for the extension and expiration of industrial and commercial land use rights.

Chen Wenjing believes that on the one hand, this shows that the central government attaches importance to the development of the real estate industry, on the other hand, it also points out the direction for the real estate policy in the next few years.

In recent years, the real estate market has bid farewell to high-speed growth and is in a period of adjustment, and China’s economy is also changing to high-quality development. How real estate can better help economic growth has become a new topic.

On July 19th, Han Wenxiu, deputy director of the Central Finance Office and director of the Central Agricultural Office, said at the press conference that China’s real estate market is large in scale and involves a wide range, which has a systematic impact on macroeconomic operation. He said, "We should persist in striving for progress while maintaining stability, making progress first and then breaking through, solve problems in progress by means of reform, speed up the transformation of kinetic energy between old and new development, and provide diversified and strong power support for high-quality development."

Although the property market is in a period of adjustment, in Han Wenxiu’s view, "China’s new urbanization is still advancing, and there is still considerable room for high-quality development of real estate."

An unnamed analyst told 21st century business herald that in the past, real estate was an important force for "maintaining growth", and it will provide power for "steady growth" in the future. This change is an important starting point for the policy adjustment of the property market, and it also means the opening of a new cycle of real estate.

Give each city government autonomy in regulation and control

For the solution to the real estate problem, the "Decision" gives a number of specific measures. Among them, building a housing system with both rent and purchase is reflected in the reports of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.

Li Yujia, chief researcher of the Housing Policy Research Center of Guangdong Urban and Rural Planning Institute, said that for new citizens, young people, migrants and other groups, their living mode is to rent first and then buy, or even rent for a long time. The combination of rent and purchase is not only the basic housing system in China, but also means that there is still much room for development in the rental market and its related public services.

It is another highlight of the Decision to stratify the demand and distinguish the main functions of guarantee and market.

Specifically, affordable housing mainly meets the rigid needs of the working class, while the improved needs are "diversified".

Li Yujia pointed out that affordable housing includes two types: rent-allocation type and allotment type. Previously, the regulatory authorities have made clear the construction, land supply, sources of funds and distribution targets of these two types of housing. Judging from the regulatory authorities’ practice of encouraging all localities to purchase existing commercial housing, in addition to new construction, it is another direction to solve the problem by revitalizing the stock.

Support for diversified needs was also mentioned during the National People’s Congress this year. Li Yujia believes that on the one hand, this is due to the diversification, personalization and differentiation of the demand side (especially the improvement demand); On the other hand, it is also a yardstick to guide supply-side reform.

He said that in the future, whether it is the supply of commercial housing, rental housing or affordable housing, we must do a good job in demand research in order to build and order.

It is worth noting that the aforementioned anonymous analysts also pointed out that allowing farmers to make active use of legally owned houses mentioned in the "Decision" is expected to provide new solutions for improving demand.

Regarding the policy direction of the property market concerned by all parties, the "Decision" emphasizes that "the city governments should be given full autonomy in regulating the real estate market, which is basically consistent with the previous formulation".

"Allowing the relevant cities to cancel or reduce the housing purchase restriction policy and cancel the standards for ordinary houses and non-ordinary houses" provides policy space for further policy optimization. Analysts generally believe that the future direction of the property market policy will continue to be reflected in reducing the cost of buying houses. In addition to the abolition of the standard of ordinary houses, the purchase restriction policy in first-tier cities is also expected to be further liberalized.

The pre-sale system will be gradually reformed.

The Decision also laid the groundwork for the reform of several systems. Analysts generally believe that compared with the complexity of real estate tax system reform, the reform of financing methods and pre-sale system is more realistic and operable.

China’s pre-sale system of commercial housing draws lessons from Hong Kong, which was established in the 1990s and has been revised twice. The pre-sale system endows housing enterprises with certain financing functions, which enables them to achieve leverage development under limited capital scale and help the property market achieve rapid growth in the past.

In recent years, under the policy of deleveraging in the property market, the disadvantages of the pre-sale system have also begun to appear. Since 2021, some cities have stopped work and stopped lending, which has brought the reform of the pre-sale system to a crossroads.

Han Wenxiu also mentioned at the press conference that the next step is to implement the spirit of the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, accelerate the construction of a new model of real estate development, and eliminate the disadvantages of the previous model of "high debt, high turnover and high leverage". This includes the reform of financing mode and pre-sale system.

Li Yujia said that the reform of the pre-sale system has certain realistic conditions. On the one hand, according to Kerry statistics, the current sales of houses in key cities have accounted for 30% of the total; On the other hand, since 2023, the sales of auction houses have declined, and the sales of existing houses and second-hand houses have increased, which means that the new feature of market demand is what you see and live immediately.

However, the financing mode of real estate development is highly related to the pre-sale system of commercial housing, and they need to be promoted simultaneously.

Chen Wenjing pointed out that after switching to existing home sales, the use time of enterprise development loans will be extended, how to optimize and adjust the supporting funds of financial institutions, or the research direction of future policies. In addition, before fully promoting the sales of existing homes, some cities may need to further improve the supply-side policies and stabilize supply expectations.

Therefore, in the short term, the reform of the pre-sale system may still be gradual, and it is expected that it will take some time to completely cancel the pre-sale system.

In contrast, the prospect of financing reform is more optimistic. Since the end of last year, the coordination mechanism of urban real estate financing has been established, and financial institutions have promoted the issuance of development loans according to the "white list", which means that the reform of financing methods has made great progress. Analysts also generally believe that this mechanism will become the norm.

In addition, real estate funds including REITs are expected to usher in further breakthroughs at the policy level.

The movie "Magic Police" exposes the ultimate poster, Wu Yanzu and Zhang Jiahui counterattack


"Magic Police" reveals the ultimate poster
 

    Directed by Lin Chaoxian, Wu Yanzu and Zhang Jiahui star in the "heaviest taste" police and bandit blockbuster, which will be released in the mainland on April 18. Today, the film exposes two important materials: the ultimate poster and the "hot" special.

    Just like the poster said, "If you want to do it, you can do it." The dusty ruins in the middle of the poster are occupied by "Magic Police" Wu Yanzu and "Ghost King" Zhang Jiahui, which make the police and bandits’ actions feel hot. In line with the poster, the film launched a "hot" special feature, which exposed various hot scenes in the film in front of everyone in advance. Lin Chaoxian said that this time it cost more than 100 million special effects. Indeed, a single scene cost tens of millions, and only this "Gun King" can do it.


Wu Yanzu in "The Magic Police"
 

Wu Yanzu and Zhang Jiahui counterattack

    The final poster released by "Demon Police" this time changed the clear colors of good and evil in the past, deliberately confusing the roles of the police and bandits. Although Zhang Jiahui, who played the "Ghost King", was wearing a police uniform for a while, the action of shooting with a gun and the senseless expression made him full of evil. Wu Yanzu, who was dressed in black plain clothes, walked towards him with a righteous face, clenching his fists in both hands seemed to deliberately suppress himself, and the "Ghost King" ghost shadow that he could not get rid of in his heart also laid the groundwork for the upcoming outbreak of emotions.

    Combined with the opening sentence of the poster, "The real adaptation of the Hong Kong case, the violent police and bandits caused a sensation in the city", the image of the protagonist Xu Bugao of the "magic police shooting incident" has surfaced. It is reported that "devil police" and "double-faced demon" were once the names of Xu Bugao in the community. "Police model" Wu Yanzu plays such a contrasting role, which is full of imagination, and Zhang Jiahui in the film is the most evil performance since the film.

    According to the statistics of the audience who had seen the movie in advance, he shot and killed at least 50 people in the film, and all kinds of torture scenes were staged together. During the screening at the Berlin Film Festival, many foreigners were scared enough. Combined with the saying of the schedule, "If you want to do it, you can do it with the big ticket", you can foresee how intense and hot the confrontation between the two in the movie will be.


Lin Chaoxian spends tens of millions to shoot a scene

    The poster also revealed a "hot" special, "magic police" Wu Yanzu in order to lose 15 kilograms of weight in the film, almost suffered from depression, he struggled with the fire plot is particularly deep in memory: "At the scene that feeling is very scary, because the surrounding fire, including the explosion is really fire."

    Lin Chaoxian, the director, also said that it took "a whole year" to make the "fire" more realistic in the later stage alone, which can be called the "most detailed" special effects part of the film.

    The most exciting and thrilling action scenes in the movie were also revealed in the video, and the director also emphasized: "The special effects of this scene are more than those of my previous film’Counterattack ‘."

    The second half of the special focuses on the "hardest gas station explosion" paragraph. In the video, a white car is seen reversing 360 degrees in the air and crashing into a telephone pole, then changing direction and rolling on the ground for several laps. Finally, it rushes into the gas station, spraying gasoline and falling light signs like dominoes.

    Whether it was the full picture of the entire explosion scene, or the close-up of the car fragments, including the goods in the convenience store in the gas station, they were all real. Lin Chaoxian recalled and sighed: "The gas station scene alone cost about 10 million [Hong Kong dollars], and the multi-seat one is about to arrive." 

Besides bats, pigtail rats also have echolocation ability! Researcher: It is expected to help the blind.

With a pink nose, small eyes, wide and flexible ears and a broom-like tail, the pig-tailed mouse, known as the "blind mouse", has an echolocation ability.

Recently, researchers from Kunming Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences came to this conclusion.

The research groups of Shi Peng, Jiang Xuelong and Liu Zhen, the State Key Laboratory of Genetic Resources and Evolution of the Institute, jointly tackled the problem, and confirmed that the species of the genus Rodent has the ability of echolocation by integrating several independent evidences of ethology, anatomy, genomics and gene function experiments.

"In addition to the well-known bats, toothed whales, etc., pigtail rats also have this ability, which is amazing in itself!" On July 5th, one of the researchers, Dr. Liu Qi from Shi Peng’s research group, was interviewed by The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) and introduced that the research on echolocation ability of pigtail rats lasted for about 4 years. This study is expected to make the pig-tailed rat become a new experimental animal to study the neural circuits of sound, hearing and echolocation. He also hopes that the research results can be applied to artificial intelligence in the future, such as improving auto-driving and blind-assisted navigation.

"Are there other mammals that have this ability but have not been discovered?" Liu Qi believes that there is still a lot of room for the research and application of echolocation, and the research on pig-tailed mice is only the beginning.

The experiment lasted for nearly four years, and the researchers stayed up late with the pig-tailed rats.

The nose is pink, the eyes are small, the ears are wide and very flexible, just like bats, they will swing back and forth and collect sounds in different directions. Its tail is very long, shaped like a broom, and there is a pinch of white hair at the end of it.

This is Liu Qi’s research object-pigtail rat, which is also called "blind rat" because of its small eyes. It belongs to the genus pigtail rat of Rodent Echinopodidae.

Liu Qi studied the echolocation ability of pig-tailed rats. Echo location refers to a directional behavior of animals in navigation, foraging and other activities by comparing the information difference between sending sound waves and receiving echoes.

As early as 2017, Liu Qi had already started this research.

At that time, after he did some basic work, the experiment had preliminary research results. He organized the experimental content into an English manuscript and sent it to secience magazine in the form of a short article. Journals have given great affirmation to this research achievement and shown great interest, which has given them great confidence.

"In the later process, we supplemented many experiments according to the requirements of the magazine and constantly enriched and improved the paper." Liu Qi said that on the one hand, it is necessary to obtain accurate experimental evidence from many aspects, on the other hand, the workload of each experiment is very large, including the subsequent papers being revised many times, so the whole project involves a long time, and it is a joint effort of multiple research teams.

Liu Qi introduced that the correspondence authors Shi Peng and Liu Zhen’s research group have been engaged in the research on the convergent evolution and molecular genetic mechanism of echo localization for a long time, and have published many heavyweight research results. Another cooperative team, researcher Jiang Xuelong, who is also the correspondent of the paper, is engaged in the research on the behavioral ecology, phylogeny and classification of pig-tailed rats. This research is the result of joint research by three research groups.

Although there are three top teams in the joint experiment, there are many difficulties in the experiment.

Liu Qi introduced that the first difficulty comes from the research object-the pig-tailed rat. Before the study, they didn’t know much about the living habits of this kind of wild animal, such as what it eats, where it lives, whether it lives in groups, what its nest looks like and its activity time.

Secondly, the wild population of pigtail rat is not large, so it is a big problem to catch it and catch a certain number of live pigtail rats when doing experiments with it.

At the same time, the researchers have no experience in raising pigs. After catching a certain number of pigs, they don’t know how to raise them. They are worried that the artificially created conditions can’t make pigs behave naturally.

However, with the advancement of the experiment, solutions have been found to these difficulties.

What makes Liu Qi feel very interesting is that in the experiment, they found that animals such as pigtail rats are nocturnal. They sleep during the day and are more active at night. Therefore, in the process of behavioral experiments, researchers arrange experiments at night, and sometimes they have to work all night to complete an experiment.

The echolocation function of small-eyed "blind mouse"

Liu Qi said that in the experiment, they recorded the short-term, frequency-modulated and high-frequency sound waves (peak frequency ~98 kHz) regularly emitted by the pig-tailed rats during movement. In dark environment, pigtail rats will emit higher ultrasonic velocity in complex space environment and when avoiding obstacles. All these results show that the ultrasonic waves emitted by pigtail rats play a directional role in sports behavior, that is, echolocation.

Subsequently, the researchers used classic experimental devices and strict experimental design to verify whether the pigtail mouse has the ability of echolocation. Through the behavioral task experiment, it is found that the pigtail rats will spend more time and send out higher ultrasonic speed to explore the target. They can accurately detect the escape platform and successfully obtain food rewards in complete darkness. When its ears are blocked, the pig-tailed rat can’t receive the echo and can’t detect the target and complete the task; After removing the earplugs, the pig-tailed rat recovered its ability to explore and locate the target. Under the condition of eliminating vision, touch and controlling sense of smell, behavioral experiments confirmed that the pigtail mouse achieved its goal by emitting ultrasonic waves and receiving echoes by hearing.

In addition, the researchers used technical means to present the anatomical structure of the pig-tailed rat, and found that the spatial position of its hyoid bone and tympanic bone contacted and fused, which was consistent with the structure of the echolocation bat that sounded through the throat. This shows that the pig-tailed rat and the echolocation bat with laryngeal vocalization have the same anatomical structure basis in vocalization and auditory structure.

Liu Qi and other researchers also sequenced and assembled the high-quality whole genome of the Chinese pigtail mouse. Through evolutionary genomics analysis, it was found that the echolocation of the pigtail mouse originated independently. In the whole genome, the pig-tailed rat and the known echolocation species (bats and toothed whales) are significantly enriched in auditory genes.

By integrating several independent evidences of ethology, anatomy, genomics and gene function experiments, it is confirmed that the species of the genus Rodentia has the ability of echolocation.

It is expected to be used in artificial intelligence, blind-assisted navigation and other fields.

The echolocation ability of pigtailed rats seems to be inferior to that of ordinary people. However, Liu Qi said that this research may be applied to artificial intelligence in the future, such as improving auto-driving and blind-assisted navigation.

Liu Qi said that from the perspective of science itself, echolocation, as a special behavior of animals, is very rare in the animal kingdom. At present, the echolocation species known by human beings may be limited to a few kinds, such as bats and toothed whales, which are familiar to everyone, and some unfamiliar ones, such as some birds, shrews and hedgehogs.

"In addition to the animals listed above, we have confirmed that there is another kind of mouse, which also has echolocation skills. It is amazing in itself to find food or locate targets by hearing and ultrasound!" Liu Qi said that in addition to five groups of independent origin, such as bats, toothed whales and giant whales, the research team found a sixth group with this ability.

In addition, because the pig-tailed rat is a rodent, its genetic relationship and size are close to those of model animal mice, and its breeding is easy to operate, it is expected to become a new experimental animal to study the neural circuits of sound, hearing and echolocation.

Liu Qi said that human beings have developed many bionic products based on the long-term research on echolocation species such as bats. For example, bats will send out ultrasonic waves to detect targets, track moving prey, or avoid obstacles in time. The invented guide rod is convenient for the blind to move.

He admits that there is still a lot of room for the research and application of echolocation, and the research on bats, pigtails and other animals and their echolocation will have more influence on human life in the future.

After discovering that pigtail rats have echolocation ability, Liu Qi and his research team have been thinking about whether there are other nearly 6,000 kinds of mammals in nature that have this ability but have not been discovered. They hope that through the efforts of the team, they can find more such magical animals.

"This requires the unremitting efforts of many researchers, and it may even be a very long exploration process." Liu Qi said that the discovery of pig-tailed rat and its echolocation is only the beginning. They hope to stick to this research and expect that it can be used in artificial intelligence in the future, such as improving auto-driving and blind-assisted navigation.

Hybrid car, that is, hybrid car.

Hybrid cars, that is, cars, are "smart guys" between traditional fuel vehicles and cars. They use (such as gasoline engines) and cooperate with each other, which is both fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly. Let’s tell you some main types of hybrid cars in vernacular. Although you can’t provide a picture description, you can help understand them by imagining keywords or searching for corresponding pictures on the Internet.

1. ():

This is the most common type of hybrid, which can be used without plugging in. It has a small battery, which is charged by the energy recovered when braking, or helps to charge when it is "idle". When driving at low speed or starting at ordinary times, the quiet motor works; When running at high speed or needing great power, the engine will intervene again. In this way, we can not only enjoy the smoothness and quietness of electric vehicles, but also avoid endurance anxiety.

2. Plug-in hybrid (PHEV):

Plug-in hybrid is like an "enhanced version" of ordinary hybrid, with a large battery that can be recharged. After being fully charged, it can be driven by pure electricity in a short distance, just like driving an electric car. Zero emission also saves money. After the battery is exhausted, it becomes a common hybrid mode, and the internal combustion engine and the motor work together. Suitable for friends who have the conditions to charge at home and commute not too long every day.

3. 48V light mixing:

Light mixing is an example of "small changes, big effects". It adds a small motor and a 48-volt battery to the conventional fuel car. This small motor can help the engine when starting and accelerating, reducing fuel consumption; It can also recover energy when braking. The driving experience does not change much, but the fuel consumption is obviously reduced, which is suitable for car owners who want to save fuel and do not want to change their driving habits.

4. REEV:

Extended-range hybrid is a bit special. Its engine does not directly drive the wheels, but is like a "charging treasure", which supplies power to batteries and motors. The car is always driven by the motor, which only starts when the battery is low to charge the battery. In this way, you can enjoy the driving experience of electric vehicles, and you are not afraid of not finding a charging pile during long-distance travel.

5. Structural differentiation: series, parallel,;

Series: the engine only generates electricity, and the electricity is supplied to the motor to drive the wheels, similar.

Parallel connection: both the engine and the motor can drive the wheels individually or together, and the power switching is flexible.

Series-parallel type (such as THS): The engine and motor can be driven independently and work together, which is complex but efficient.

To sum up, hybrid cars are varied and have their own characteristics. Which one to choose depends mainly on your daily use needs, charging conditions and personal preferences. If you want to save fuel and environmental protection, drive smoothly, and don’t want to be troubled by charging, ordinary may be the most suitable; If it is convenient to charge at home, there are many short distances and few long distances, plug-in hybrid is a good choice; If you just want to make small changes to save energy, you may wish to consider 48V light mixing; If you like pure electric driving and are not afraid of long distance, then look at the hybrid. Remember, the key is to choose the hybrid car that suits your life!

ByteDance’s boss culture: honesty

It is difficult for startups to escape the word "boss culture". Corporate culture reflects the boss’s style to some extent.

Before starting to study Zhang Yiming/Byte, the steering boat tried to get to know the company with Byte employees. Many people say that this company has a strong brand of Zhang Yiming and a boss culture. From system to process, Zhang Yiming’s thought has been well implemented.

So, what exactly is Zhang Yiming’s style?

These two words are obvious: honesty.

Many entrepreneurs in China are fans of Jack Welch, former CEO of General Electric (GE) Group, and so is Zhang Yiming. If Drucker helped Zhang Yiming deepen his understanding of "courage", then Jack Welch helped Zhang Yiming deepen his understanding of "frankness".

The frankness mentioned here does not mean that you can vent your emotions without scruple or make malicious subjective life attacks. Emotion and fact are two different things. “Emotion "hurts self and others, and" facts "can help self and others grow.

The frankness mentioned here means that under the premise of achieving the goal and solving the problem, everyone can put down their guard and communicate without consideration, express their views and put forward constructive suggestions. Lack of frankness will fundamentally stifle keen creativity, hinder quick action and prevent outstanding people from contributing all their talents.

Unfortunately, it is a common cognition of human beings to take good care of the scene and not be too frank. Because it can protect yourself well. Being too frank will lead to trouble. From childhood, we began to learn how to cover up bad news and make everything look good.

This social culture of "hello, I am good, everyone is good" has also been brought into commercial companies.

For example, we promote a project in the company, and the effect is not bad, but there is still a lot of space to iterate. Without iteration, the project will have no future.

But what are we often talking about when we hold project meetings?

It’s really not bad, we did our best, it was really excellent, I like you and so on. The impression left after the meeting was "We are not bad".

But everyone knows in their hearts that if this is the case, the future is extremely slim. How fierce the competition is outside.

Although everyone is very uneasy, they would rather feel better for everyone’s face, and even choose to give up exploring the future.This is what happens every day in many companies.

Zhang Yiming said that "dishonesty" in business life is actually a selfish performance. In order to make your own life and work easier, this kind of thinking is often short-sighted, and this lack of foresight may be rooted in cowardice.

People who dare to get angry and speak out directly will be regarded as heterogeneous at the beginning and labeled as "low emotional intelligence" The young Jack Welch, was also so warned:

From the day I joined GE until I was appointed as CEO, for 20 years, my bosses often warned me not to be too straightforward. I am classified as rude, and I am always warned that being too blunt will soon hinder my career.

Fortunately, although people are afraid of embarrassment, they prefer truth. Welch’s later achievements are a good illustration. When you present a frank, pragmatic and efficient work style, you will attract people with the same characteristics to join. Generally speaking, such a team is more likely to create good performance than a team that is not honest, pragmatic and efficient.

In addition to Welch’s inspiration, Zhang Yiming also has his own understanding of "frankness". He said: "In this society where information flows faster and more transparent, from an economic point of view, the cost of being a duplicitous person is getting higher and higher, and dirty people will get more and more unlucky. Not pretending to be improper is a moral character preference, and it is also more economical. Many people have not realized this. "

He praised this sentence: it is good to be honest and ruthless in communication, and this does not prevent you from being a warm, humorous and constructive person. But honesty is extremely important for people who work together.

In addition to dishonesty, there is also a kind of dishonesty that is hidden deeply, which is called "self-satisfaction".

The resistance to self-satisfaction is the culture of bytes. Zhang Yiming said: "I have always felt that deliberately touching others is almost cheating."

If you are moved by this, even yourself, you are deceiving yourself.

Now, Zhang Yiming has brought "honesty" into ByteDance.

Regarding how ByteDance landed a "frank" boss culture, the steering boat combed several details:

First: OKR

ByteDance implements bimonthly OKR, so that everyone can check other people’s OKR details, so as to better coordinate. Zhang Yiming’s own OKR is also open. Byers can learn what bosses are busy with recently, which can actually play a comparative role and know their own direction of efforts and whether it is important in the company.

In contrast, departments in many companies don’t know what each other is doing. To make matters worse, in a department, no one knows what each other is busy with.

Second: information is "urgent"

We often encounter things that don’t return information at work, which you think is very important, but the collaborators don’t understand it that way. This kind of gap makes the workplace full of infinite waiting.

I once encountered such a situation. The middle managers of a company talked about the fact that the president didn’t reply to the information behind his back, but they were afraid to communicate face to face, which led to many things not being promoted.

So what will Bytes do? Through collaboration software’s work, the information is expedited, and the other party is forced to push it, and the other party is strongly required to reply to the information. Regardless of whether the other party feels uncomfortable.

Third: strong "pull the group"

What if the other party doesn’t reply to the message if it is urgent? Then byte can find the other person’s boss to promote the work without caring about the other person’s feelings. What if the boss doesn’t reply to the message? Just pull the boss’s boss, if not, pull the boss’s boss, and you can pull it all the way to Zhang Yiming.

Byte culture, so that everyone has no psychological burden to do so. Everything is not to vent emotions, but to solve problems.

Fourth: Score each other.

How is your work done? Bytes are evaluated 360 degrees every six months. Your collaborator will grade your real name. What about you? The eyes of the masses are discerning.

Scoring each other may bring the phenomenon of being a good guy, or someone maliciously scores low. Fortunately, it is a real name. If there is an impersonal nice guy, he will be communicated, and if there is a malicious low score, he will also be communicated.

How do you grade, the eyes of the masses are also discerning.

Jack Welch said that for some people, becoming a leader means starting their own journey of power. They like the feeling of keeping control over people and information, so they will keep secrets, keep their thoughts on employees and their performance secret, and hide their thoughts on the future development of the company. This behavior allows the leader to establish his own territory, but he excludes trust from the team.

Trust appears when leaders show sincerity, frankness and keep their words. When you always cover up or whitewash those bad information, you may lose the trust and support of the team.

I hope I can be liked by everyone, which will make a manager insomnia and headache. Because you have to make a firm decision, let unqualified employees be laid off and let inappropriate projects be closed.

Obviously, excessively tough demands will lead to complaints and resistance from others. But as Welch said: On the basis of fully listening to opinions and explaining your ideas clearly, you must move forward, don’t hesitate, and don’t cheat and cajole. If you are honest-although you can never be absolutely honest-you will find that everything will work faster and better.

Zhang Yiming is practicing this rule.

Bytes may rarely come into contact with Zhang Yiming, but they all know:

I can say no to Zhang Yiming.

I booked this conference room in advance, even if Zhang Yiming came to jump the queue, he shouldn’t let me.

As far as Zhang Yiming is unprofessional, we can ask him to shut up.

This is the best sense of security for employees.

Steering boat recommends "frankness" in this article, not to praise how great ByteDance is, but to hope that entrepreneurs and managers who read this article can realize that you have better means to solve problems: when you feel communication difficulties, the best communication method is not to think too much about skills and arguments, but to communicate more frankly.

When you feel that management is very difficult, you can realize that frank communication is the main problem of company team management.

Honest corporate culture can be learned. Welch’s methodology is: to popularize the spirit of frankness, you must inspire it, appreciate it and talk about it all the time. You can make people who show honesty into heroes of the masses. The most important thing is that you have to be energetic yourself, and even exaggerate this spirit and prove it to everyone.

However, we also need to be psychologically prepared, and it is extremely difficult to do things right and against humanity with the whole human secular culture, although it is very rewarding.

How to break through? Grasping the team means grasping the leader. You should first have an excellent team of managers. Managers can be honest, and the team is likely to implement it. If managers are secretive and vague, then the whole team will inevitably be unable to be honest.
