Grasp the Great Protection of Golden Waterway and Add Momentum (New Economic Orientation and New Development Concept)

  Core reading

  Sail on the river and witness the change. The replacement of cargo ships, from burning coal and oil to hybrid power, has low cost and less pollution; Dock upgrade, goods piled up in the open air, black ash everywhere into history; Kinetic energy conversion, strong momentum of circular economy and accelerated gathering of green industries & HELIP; …

  The new path of ecological priority and green development has enabled the Yangtze River Economic Belt to release new kinetic energy and the golden waterway to generate golden benefits.

  In the Three Gorges reservoir area, freighters pass by and the river is sparkling. "The bright Yangtze River water, how dare you think before?" Sitting on the freighter, Wang Shunhua, the captain of Chongqing Gangsheng Shipping Co., Ltd., was feeling again.

  There are green mountains on both sides of the strait and clear water on one river. The provinces along the Yangtze River put the restoration of the ecological environment of the Yangtze River in an overwhelming position and embarked on a new path of ecological priority and green development. Control pollution, restore ecology, promote green recycling and low-carbon development, and work together in the upper, middle and lower reaches to achieve new results.

  Building an important ecological barrier in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, Chongqing continues to promote green development. On the one hand, we will promote the investigation and rectification of the coastline, clarify the list of prohibited investment in the whole industry, and delineate the red line of ecological protection; On the other hand, we should promote the upgrading of traditional industries with intelligent transformation and develop strategic emerging industries to cultivate new kinetic energy. At present, the water quality of Chongqing section of the main stream of the Yangtze River is generally excellent, and the proportion of water quality of 42 sections included in the national assessment is over 97%, which is 7 percentage points higher than the annual target.

  The change of river and its bank

  "In Hubei and Jiangxi, there are finless porpoises jumping out of the river."

  "The water in the Three Gorges reservoir area has high visibility. Sometimes when you put a ladder, it is clearly visible more than two meters underwater. " Wang Shunhua said. Standing on the deck and looking from afar, the previously bare stone mountain is now full of trees. At first glance, it is all green.

  "Grasp the great protection together, and we will dig deep ‘ Etiology ’ , precision ‘ Treatment ’ Tributary. " According to the relevant person in charge of the Chongqing Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment, last year, 4,191 cases of illegal discharge and discharge of sewage were found, and the rectification rate exceeded 95%. Twenty-seven enterprises were shut down according to law and 18 rivers were supervised for pollution control on the spot.

  Down the river, leaving the reservoir area, the two sides gradually opened up. "There used to be many houses, factories and houses on the shore." Wang Shunhua said that at that time, sewage entered the Yangtze River, and the rivers in some areas turned black.

  In recent years, it’s very different. Riverside parks have been built, turning green and increasing green. Outside the city circle, the wild riverbanks are also full of greenery.

  At the beginning of this year, among the 11 provinces along the Yangtze River Economic Belt, Chongqing took the lead in publishing the "three lines and one list", namely, "the red line of ecological protection, the bottom line of environmental quality, the online utilization of resources, and the establishment of an ecological environment access list". According to the relevant person in charge of the Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment, Chongqing will continue to strictly implement the "1 km" and "5 km" control requirements for the coastline of the main stream and main tributaries of the Yangtze River, that is, it is resolutely forbidden to build new industrial projects with pollution risks such as heavy chemicals, textiles and paper making within 1 km, and it is resolutely forbidden to newly lay out industrial parks within 5 km.

  Take the "upstream responsibility" and play an exemplary role in promoting the green development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt. At present, the water quality of the main stream of the Yangtze River in the Three Gorges reservoir area is generally stable at Class II. In the first eight months of this year, the proportion of excellent water quality in 49 sections of the Yangtze River Economic Belt reached 91.8%, and there was no inferior V water body.

  Water is protected in the river and green is protected on both sides. "In January this year, in Hubei and Jiangxi, there were finless porpoises jumping out of the river." Wang Shunhua said that the crew rushed to the deck to watch.

  The change of ship and shipping

  "The ship travels three thousand miles without throwing a piece of paper into the river."

  Wang Shunhua’s father is also a captain. He got on the boat when he was very young. "The ship, can be said to be a water tractor, walking pollution sources. Burning coal, pulling coal. The black smoke at the bow is rolling, and the dust at the stern is blowing. "

  At first, Wang Shunhua drove a diesel boat, but now it’s different. In June 2018, the company completed the technical transformation of LNG/ diesel dual fuel power of two 4,000-ton ships, and his "Gangsheng 1005 Wheel" was one of them. Compared with the traditional power, the modified ship reduces the fuel consumption and the price cost is also reduced year-on-year. Wang Shunhua calculated an account, and from Chongqing Orchard Port to Yichang Port in Hubei Province, a voyage can save more than 3,000 yuan. Not to mention, under the same energy and power output, the nitrogen oxides of natural gas are reduced by 90%, and the emissions of sulfur oxides and PM2.5 are almost reduced by 100%, which not only saves costs, but also saves energy and protects the environment.

  "The main reason is that the filling station is not matched, and it was only opened in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. In June this year, this ship successfully passed the Three Gorges Dam and can be opened in the whole Yangtze River basin in the future. " Wang Shunhua said.

  Ships are changing, and shipping is changing even more.

  "Our crew members are on the boat, eating and drinking the Yangtze River water. We didn’t realize it before, and the sewage and garbage were poured into the river." Wang Shunhua said that through continuous education, training and supervision, a cargo ship is now sailing from Chongqing to Jiangsu, and the ship travels three thousand miles without throwing a piece of paper into the river.

  There are nearly 120,000 inland cargo ships in the Yangtze River system, and hundreds of thousands of crew members live and work on the river all the year round, which will produce a lot of pollutants. The management in various places is becoming stricter and stricter, from untreated discharge to discharge after treatment is up to standard, and then to zero discharge in many places. At present, many places have accelerated the construction of port pollutant receiving and transshipment facilities, and domestic sewage receiving ships and transshipment terminals have been put into use in Chongqing, Yichang and Anqing.

  "In Jiangsu, domestic garbage, domestic sewage and oily water must be handed over to the dock for free treatment before the cargo ship can operate." Wang Shunhua said.

  Adhering to the concept of green development, the Yangtze River freight mode has been upgraded. On ships and docks, open-air stacking and black ash everywhere have become history. In Chongqing Port, containers are packed neatly. "Bulk goods will be scattered during loading and unloading and sailing, causing pollution. Now it is changed to container transportation to protect the river and protect the river bank. " The relevant person in charge of Gangsheng Shipping Company introduced.

  Changes in goods and sources of supply

  "In recent years, the capacity of the Yangtze River has increased several times."

  In the first few years of work, Wang Shunhua envied the eastern region. "The riverside is full of factories. There is a supply of goods if there is an industry. " At that time, 90% of Chongqing’s downstream transportation was coal, and only some clothing and department stores were shipped up.

  In recent years, the provinces along the Yangtze River have implemented the concept of green development, the ecology has been improving, and green industries are also rising.

  Chongqing Fuling mustard tuber is famous far and near, but the vegetable water is directly discharged into the Yangtze River. Now, Fuling people turn waste into treasure, make high-quality soy sauce with vegetable water, and embark on a green development path of circular economy.

  Chongqing Changshou Economic and Technological Development Zone is a demonstration pilot of recycling transformation of national parks. Improve the environmental protection infrastructure and build a circular economy incubation platform. More than 30 circular economy projects have been built locally, and the comprehensive utilization rate of industrial solid waste exceeds 97%.

  Wanzhou District, Chongqing, located in the Three Gorges reservoir area, closed down polluting industries such as heavy chemical industry, electroplating and papermaking, and promoted the development of green, recycling, intelligent and clustered industries by implementing projects such as green industrial agglomeration, recycling park construction and intelligent manufacturing cultivation.

  Lishui, Zhejiang, Fuzhou, Jiangxi, to carry out the pilot mechanism of realizing the value of ecological products; Chongming, Shanghai, Wuhan, Hubei, and Guangyang, Chongqing, promoting green development demonstration … … The provinces along the Yangtze River actively explore ways to promote the "Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets", cultivate and develop advanced production capacity, increase effective supply, accelerate the formation of new industrial clusters, and promote the transformation of the development power of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.

  The development of green industry is changing the goods and sources of Yangtze River freight. "Chongqing’s downstream transportation has become cars and machinery. Downstream to Chongqing, there are machinery, spare parts, and various industrial raw materials. " Wang Shunhua said.

  Green development makes the golden waterway produce golden benefits. "Five years ago, my cargo ship was a big ship on the Yangtze River. Not now. The biggest ship to Chuanjiang is 14,000 tons. Sailing on the Yangtze River, you can meet a ship in about 10 minutes upstream, and one ship after another in the downstream. " Wang Shunhua said with emotion, "In recent years, the transportation capacity of the Yangtze River has increased several times!" (Reporter Jiang Yunlong)

Zhao Liying, Andy Lau, and Yang Mi… They are very dedicated to playing a special crowd


1905 movie network feature She plays a hearing-impaired mother in the new Chinese New Year film. She also chose to use sign language to introduce her new role to the audience on Weibo.



The title of the film "Article 20" is taken from Article 20 of the Criminal Law, focusing on the situation and legal dilemma behind cases related to legitimate defense.


In the trailer that has been exposed, the hearing-impaired mother played by Zhao Liying is faced with a major change in her family, and she has no way to ask for help. She "roars" in despair on the rooftop, while signing, the blue veins in her neck bulge, and tears flow, full of contagion.



The director also revealed that the setting of the hearing-impaired person was proposed by Zhao Liying. In order to play this role well, she not only appeared without makeup, learned sign language, but also minimized language communication on the set and immersed herself in Hao Xiuping’s world.


"She has broken through her own ceiling and is no longer the Zhao Liying of the past." Zhang Yimou commented.



The video of Zhao Liying introducing herself in sign language also received a lot of praise from hearing-impaired girls: Sign language is very standard, and I am very happy that Zhao Liying can play this role. I hope her social influence can make hearing-impaired people more inclusive and valued.


Then, Zhao Liying also recorded a sign language video reply: Thank you for your liking, I received it!Seeing such a "two-way rush", netizens couldn’t help but exclaim: It’s too warm.



Not only Zhao Liying, but also many actors have starred in "special groups" in film and television works. While gaining audience recognition, they also helped these groups to make their voices heard.


In the just-concluded "If Running Is My Life," the actor, Anxin, "lost" his legs in a car accident.


The realistic prosthetic effects that audiences see in the play are the result of a combination of special effects, props, and actors.



Zhong Chuxi revealed in an interview that she often communicated with the teacher in charge of amputation makeup on the crew about the state of the person at different stages after amputation, kneeling on the wheelchair to find the feeling, and walking to simulate the state of prosthetic toddlers, unable to bend significantly.


What’s more important is to understand and interpret the process by which characters regain their confidence and dignity after being hit, so as to encourage more people to face life more positively.



People with physical disabilities are also depicted in movies.


She plays the high paraplegic Ma Jiaqi, although only the head can move, but with his expressions and lines to show the character’s personality and rich and delicate emotions.



Ren Suxi interpreted Ma Jiaqi’s "pungent" this way: she can only express herself through her mouth, and the more fiercely she scolds, the more fragile her heart is.



In addition, they have also played visually impaired groups.


In order to play the genius fencing boy who went blind by accident, Wu Lei learned how to use braille and a blind cane, and kept his eyes in a state of no focus at all times. He often broke down in tears while patting.



Yang Mi said that playing blind people should not only look similar, but also show their unique psychological state, such as relatively "passive", strong protective desire and so on.



In Andy Lau’s opinion, the blind detective Johnston in the movie is the most difficult role in his 30 years of career.


Before the performance, Andy Lau went to a blind school to experience life for three months, learning life skills with people who had just lost their sight, and finally reached a state where they could "close their eyes" and do many things.



In order to break the stereotype of this group, he also insists on not wearing sunglasses, using "eyes" and limbs to more realistically interpret the every move of the blind.



In China, Hui Yinghong also did not want to use a "lazy" way to show the visually impaired group, and worked hard from appearance to expression.


She first found an ophthalmologist and took a pair of copper contact lenses, wearing them to carefully guess the state of mind of the blind, and then constantly trained herself to control the eyes, imitating the state of the prototype’s eyes that kept moving and scattered.


Hui Yinghong, who has blind relatives, admitted that starring in the film is also to help this group speak out: to make them feel equal is the greatest respect.



In the movie, the character of He is a mentally disabled person with only the intelligence of a few-year-old child.


Before the filming began, Zhang Junjun, Qiu Ze, and other leading actors spent a month in a welfare home, learning crafts and painting with children, observing the clothing, food, housing, and transportation of these special people up close, and completely subverting the past role image in terms of style.



Zhang Junjun said: I don’t want everyone to focus on "pretending to be ugly", but I hope to truly present the state of these special people, so that the audience can feel their love and innocence.


This is also the meaning of presenting special people in film and television works. It should not be curious or sensational, but should provide a window and an opportunity for their true life state and inner world to be "seen" and "heard".


As the director of "Best Encounters" put it: "I hope people don’t just focus on the special parts. Their needs and expectations for love and being loved are the same as those of ordinary people."


Wang Jianlin: There is an L-shaped inflection point in real estate, and it will be difficult for eight to ten years

        Speaker:Wang Jianlin (Founder and Chairperson of Dalian Wanda Group Inc., Ltd.)

        Subject:Transformers: Creating New Commercial Value and Wanda’s Road to Transformation

        Time:April 21, 2015

        Host:China Entrepreneur Club

        [Editor’s note]

        At the "2015 China Green Company Annual Conference", Wang Jianlin said that the current trend of the real estate industry has changed. The industry has reached an inflection point. This inflection point is not V-shaped, but L-shaped. It takes a long time to balance supply and demand. Real estate will be difficult within ten or eight years.

        Wang Jianlin said that Wanda is trying O2O and Internet finance because Wanda needs to transform. One of the reasons for this is to use its own transformation method to smooth the cycle of the industry.

        The following is an excerpt from Wang Jianlin’s speech by The Paper (www.thepaper.cn):

 Increase user experience with O2O model

        How will physical enterprises go in the future? Will they also learn from the Internet? I told the company not to be afraid, but to embrace the Internet bravely. In fact, like our industry, how to do the Internet is a new topic. We mentioned the concept of O2O, which has only been done for a year now.

        First, increase the experience and stickiness of offline consumers. What does it mean to increase the experience? For example, there are now four Wanda Plaza in Shenyang, and more may be added in the future. Some consumers find that the parking spaces in the square are full after going there. Before, consumers only found that the parking spaces were full when they arrived at Wanda Plaza, and then they had to spend a lot of time queuing up. The O2O model means searching for relevant information at home, you can check if there are parking spaces, and you can even book parking spaces in advance.

        However, there is a problem. This type of project that increases the experience is a money-burning project. Where is the company’s profit direction? After more than a year of exploration, we have now found a new direction, which is to move in the direction of Internet finance.

        Utilize big data for internet finance

        Now Wanda Commercial is changing from heavy to light. In the past, we held our own assets or paid all the rent. Now we have a lot of investors, including our internal and external investors, who are willing to invest in us, and let us be responsible for the design, construction, investment promotion, operation, and management. We will share a part of the funds.

        From here, we remember that we are currently experimenting with a new wealth management product issued by one of our own Internet companies. This wealth management product is invested in Wanda Plaza, and the share of Wanda Plaza is transferred to the annual profit and rent dividend. The Internet company leaves a small part of the profit and then distributes it to investors.

        In the process of studying O2O, we found that Wanda has a huge advantage, the flow of people is very large. There were 1.60 billion passengers last year, and it is expected to exceed 2 billion this year. In 2020, according to the most conservative estimate, more than 6 billion people will enter Wanda’s plazas, hotels and resorts. This is just the most conservative estimate.

        According to a person once a month, there are at least 500 million active users. There may be more in the future. These resources are our customers who will issue Internet financial loans in the future. Because his consumption data may not be completely recorded in first- and second-tier cities, such as Beijing and Shanghai, but for third- and fourth-tier cities, his consumption data is very complete.

Wanda wants to become the largest card issuer in China

        At present, our O2O is going in these two directions. One is to spend money to increase the experience and increase the stickiness. Second, through Internet finance, to obtain profits and increase the further expansion and development of O2O.

        There is a third thing in the future. If there are enough members, two or three hundred million, or even three or five hundred million, we will issue a Wanda’s own innovation card. The name has not been decided yet.

        As long as all members come to my store to spend, there is no annual fee for this innovation card, and there will be subsidies and points for using this innovation card.

        This kind of innovative card costs billions of dollars a year. As for the expenses related to the use of the card, where does the money come from? We have generally signed an agreement with the pilot merchants to spend one yuan on this card. At present, all the pilot merchants have agreed, so we use a large crowdfunding method to digest it.

        So in the future, our goal may be to become the largest card-issuing bank in China within five to six years. This will further stimulate support for offline O2O.

        I believe that because of Wanda’s offline opening of fifty or sixty stores every year, 500 million to 1 billion increased offline data support every year, our O2O, this "Internet +", will definitely create a new model in the business.

        Moreover, this "Internet +" stimulates and strengthens not the excess capacity, but the commercial consumption, cultural consumption, tourism consumption, and sports consumption that China needs to further contribute to China’s economy and explore. There is no new model of O2O "Internet +" in the world.

 "Touching the Net" is for transformation

        Why should we try O2O, why should we try Internet finance? Because Wanda needs to transform. Transformation is an eternal topic, and it is impossible for any enterprise’s business model to remain unchanged. If it remains unchanged, it will disappear from the list. We see that the companies that appeared on the list 30 years ago are now less than 20%. Maybe in another 20 years, or even 50 years, there may be only ten companies left in the top 500. This change is very large and must be adapted.

        In addition, Wanda needs to gain a greater competitive advantage. In the real estate field, although there are no national competitors, there are still regional competitors. Nationally speaking, in our industry, there is a saying that there is only one, no two. Through this transformation, we have gained more room for development. In several industries where we have comparative advantages, such as real estate, cultural industry, tourism industry, sports industry, etc., our goal is not only to have a certain competitive advantage, but also to exclude competitors, so that competitors cannot enter.

        I also hope that Wanda’s transformation can achieve the purpose of not being affected by the economic cycle. China’s economic downturn began in 2013. Although the RRR and interest rates were cut, the economic improvement was still not particularly obvious, indicating that China’s economy is in a downward channel, and the decline has not stopped. This is the economic cycle.

The real estate industry has reached an inflection point

        What will the cycle bring? It may bring a fatal blow to the cyclical industry. This industry is real estate and bulk materials, which are typical cyclical industries. For example, when real estate is selling well, it goes up when it is not easy to sell, and it enters the economic downturn cycle. No matter what, it is difficult to sell.

        What is particularly uncomfortable is that the real estate industry has been in the real estate industry for so many years, in 1993, 1994, and in 2007 and 2008. At that time, it was very difficult. No matter how much the price was reduced, we did not buy it. The reason why we transformed was that we had our own ideas and used our own transformation methods to iron out the cycle of this industry.

        For example, we invest in light assets, investment funds or wealth management products. Our purpose is not to be affected by the economic cycle. Whether house prices rise or fall has nothing to do with us. We don’t have to consider house prices.

        The current trend of the real estate industry has changed, and the industry has reached an inflection point. This inflection point is not V-shaped, but L-shaped. It takes a long time for supply and demand to balance, and real estate will be difficult within ten or eight years.

        The real estate industry can never return to the "buy is earn" situation, and the "make money while lying down" situation is over. The industry has changed, and we have made a judgment on the long-term trend. We feel that we can no longer take the path of sales to earn cash flow, and we have decisively adjusted from 2004.

 Transformation is in line with national strategic adjustment

        Wanda’s transformation is also in line with the country’s strategic requirements. The whole of China is transforming and restructuring, and it is better to pay the price for the country to transform. Our country will shift to a domestic demand-based economic development model. More than 60% of the products we produce are now sold to foreign countries, and our consumption rate is 40%. Products worth 100 *******st be sold to foreigners for 60 yuan to support our development. The current consumption rate in the United States may be 85% to 90%, and in developed countries, it is basically 70% to 80%.

        In the future, our production will be domestic independent consumption, and this economy will not be so dangerous. This has the voice over, and there will be no anti-dumping. If our market is large enough, all markets will be in China.

        Another point is that Wanda’s transformation is accelerating investment, not in excess capacity, not in cement and steel, or even in automobiles. What we are investing in now is the service industry, which increases employment and expands domestic demand, and it is what the country needs. Investment in e-commerce is high-tech, and investment in tourism is encouraged and supported by the state.

        Corporate culture determines Wanda’s transformation

        Wanda’s transformation is determined by Wanda’s corporate culture. Wanda is a company that keeps tossing and turning. We are constantly changing ourselves and seeking changes, because only by constantly seeking changes, constantly looking for newer models, and longer-term cash flow can this company be safe and meet the eight words mentioned to the company more than 20 years ago, "International Wanda, a century-old enterprise".

        We have worked hard to continuously find in practice. Now we believe that Wanda has been balanced with four industries, relying on and supporting each other to form a good ecosystem and ecosystem. I estimate that this company will have no problem for a while, regardless of whether I am there or not.

        I hope that my greatest contribution in life will be to create a great organization, and this organization is still there.

        

Counting the sci-fi milestones of Japanese animation

  With the release of the film version of ghost in the shell, its theatrical animation prototype, which is a classic of science fiction, has once again entered the public’s field of vision. It has been found that Japan’s "second element" is not only a commercial and entertainment industry full of exquisite pictures and bloody stories, but also a large number of excellent works that have reached a high level in artistry and ideology.

  Below, let’s take a look at these sci-fi milestones in Japanese animation.

  Worship of machinery: the "ingenious" interpretation of huge machinery

  Due to the experience of rapid westernization in modern times, Japanese culture has an inexplicable love for huge industrial machinery. This emotion has evolved into a persistent interpretation of giant weapons in animation after being strengthened by the thinking of "weapons only" and "decisive weapons" during World War II.

  The beginning of mechanical worship is nothing more than the Cosmic Warship Yamato, which was broadcast in 1974. In this film, the super battleship "Yamato" of the old Japanese navy set sail again as a space warship, and single-handedly entered the base camp of the interstellar invaders, completing the grand task of saving the earth. The main gun of the Yamato completely hit the hearts of the Japanese audience in the Showa era and achieved great success. The concept of "Yamato" even influenced many later works. The main gun of the human space battleship in the famous game StarCraft was called "Yamato Gun".

  In 1979, a sci-fi film "Mobile Suit Gundam 0079", which reflected the "war of independence" between the space colonial satellite and the earth, appeared on the screen. This time, the huge machinery has become more anthropomorphic, and steel giants such as "Gundam" and "Zagu" have simply become the physical extension of the driver’s will. "Gundam" has since become a long-lasting industrial brand, and today, it continues to introduce new works to adapt to the new era. Compared with Yamato, which triumphed all the way, Gundam’s depiction of the war is more real and profound, depicting the great damage caused by the war to the lives of the people on both sides of the war, instead of blindly rendering "justice".

  At the same time, some animators began to reflect on this "mechanical worship", so the work "Mobile Police" appeared. Although the film takes the "special car two lessons" of driving police robots as the leading group, the film no longer highlights the giant humanoid machinery, but focuses on depicting the ups and downs of these "grassroots policemen" in their daily lives. This "naysayer" deconstruction, relying on the story of "grounding gas", also won the love of a large number of viewers.

  Although this mechanical worship of Japanese animation has a slightly paranoid thinking foundation, it is also thanks to this "ingenuity" that Japanese animators have designed a large number of beautiful and exquisite sci-fi mechanical settings. Even Avatar, the top American blockbuster, is full of "Japanese-style" precision beauty in mechanical settings.

  Armageddon: cruel aesthetics under the consciousness of hardship

  As well as "ingenuity" deeply rooted in Japanese culture, there is also their sense of hardship, which can be seen in film and television works with the theme of "destruction" such as The Sinking of Japan and Godzilla. In animation, the first screen show of Miyazaki Hayao, a Japanese animation master, is an epic depicting the struggle and coexistence between the remaining human beings and nature after the destruction of civilization — — Valley of the Wind. Nausicaa, the heroine in the film, bravely leads her people to survive tenaciously on the destroyed land. Wearing a blue dress and flying in the sky with white wings, she became a memory of a generation in Japan.

  After entering the 1990s, with the collapse of the economic bubble, Japanese society fell into an unprecedented depression. At the end of the century, TV animation with strong religious elements to render the end of the world — — The Gospel Warrior in the New Century caused a sensation in the whole Japanese society. The boys and girls in the film are driving biological robots from human beings and fighting desperately with the "apostles" who intend to destroy human beings. The film uses a large number of shocking lens language with psychological implications, which successfully synchronizes the complex inner world of teenagers with the devastated external world and presents a cruel aesthetic feast for the audience. The heroine Ayanami Rei, who has almost no self-personality, has become a new generation of animation goddess after Nausicaa. Compared with his heroic predecessors, Ayanami Rei’s gloomy temperament clearly reflects the changes of social times.

  After entering the new century, with the haze of the cold war and economic crisis gradually dissipating, the conflict of social thoughts has become a new contradiction. The theater animation Harmony released in recent years is such a work. The highly developed future of science and technology in the film, under the seemingly beautiful and harmonious appearance, is a gentle strangulation of human nature, which has to be said to be a wake-up call for Japanese culture. At the end of the film, human beings completely give up self-awareness, and the whole society is integrated into a whole that "does not distinguish between you and me". Although this kind of destruction has no "big scene" of landslides, it has more realistic symbolic significance and deserves reflection from all people in modern society.

  Dolls and people: a grim prospect of artificial intelligence

  With the revolution of electronic technology, the interpretation of artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction and other technologies has become a new theme of Japanese animation. Osamu Tezuka, the founder of Japanese animation, is most famous for Astro Boy, which tells the story of intelligent robots seeking themselves. Then another classic with great international influence — — Robot Cat is also based on an intelligent robot from the future — — Doraemon is centered on it.

  However, when it really touches the core of these technical issues, the style of Japanese animation has become more and more cold. The comic classic "gunnm", which describes the semi-mechanical girl Gary’s self-pursuit in the battle, has been bought by the famous director Cameron and is making a film. The animated film Yukikaze, which tells the coexistence of human pilots and artificial intelligence fighters, completely abandons the "anthropomorphic" artificial intelligence that is often depicted in most artificial intelligence science fiction works. As the soul of a high-performance tactical reconnaissance plane, the artificial intelligence "Yukikaze" in the film is endowed with an out-and-out "inhuman" attribute by the author. She has neither worldly desires nor love/hate, but she has a completely different thinking ability from human beings. In the critical air battle, she has repeatedly made decisions and behaviors that are completely beyond human beings. Looking back at this forward-looking animation now, we will find that the agent most similar to Yukikaze is the artificial intelligence AlphaGo that is sweeping the world of Go.

  Another classic that has to be said is the sci-fi animation classic — — Ghost in the shell. This work has five versions: comic book, theater animation, two TV animations and live-action movies, but it basically tells the story of "Nine Public Security Courses" led by Grass seed, a fully mechanized reformer, to crack down on high-tech crimes. Among them, two theater animations directed by Mamoru Oshii, an animation master who is equally famous with Miyazaki Hayao, are the most classic. The film deeply discusses the alienation and evolution of human nature in a high-tech society with an increasingly high degree of integration between human beings and machines through long and even empty shots, supplemented by a large number of symbolic pictures. The film is permeated with a kind of transcendental "super-humanism" atmosphere. As the protagonist, Suzi even completely abandoned the concrete body in the film and gained freedom and rebirth in the torrent of information network. At this point, it is an understandable regret that the live-action movie version failed to fully carry out these discussions in order to take into account the audience and rhythm of commercial movies. The TV animated version, at the beginning of the century, foresighted the social problems we are facing now, such as the spread of network memes and refugee crisis, which is also a rare classic.

  After decades of development and accumulation, Japanese animation is full of a large number of commercial works with bright appearance but lack of connotation, but it also produces a large number of outstanding works with profound humanistic and artistic feelings, including many sci-fi masterpieces. These excellent sci-fi animations have artistically imagined and interpreted the development of science and technology through the unparalleled picture expression of animation, which deeply reflects the ideological trend of their times and has far-reaching influence. Limited by space, there are still many excellent Japanese sci-fi animations that cannot be introduced one by one, but the unique charm of Japanese sci-fi animation can still be seen through these classic works.

Summary of Registration Time and Entrance of Self-taught Exams in April 2024 by Provinces

There is something to play and eat on the New Year’s Eve on the trip.

Source: Guangzhou Daily
This year’s Spring Festival, in response to the call of "celebrating the New Year on the spot", many people canceled their plans to go home for the New Year and stayed in the local area for the New Year. In previous years, I went home for the New Year’s Eve in order to rush to the richest and warmest "New Year’s Eve" of the year. But this year, "New Year’s Eve on the spot", where and how to eat the New Year’s Eve has become a topic of concern to everyone.
The reporter learned that with the changes in people’s consumption habits and needs, under the background of "celebrating the New Year on the spot" giving birth to opportunities in the local tourism market, "Eating New Year’s Eve on the road" has also become a new bright spot-booking New Year’s Eve at local and surrounding destinations can still be happy for the New Year. In the Spring Festival of the Year of the Ox, the Plus version of the "New Year’s Eve" experience has played a lot of new tricks. Under the premise of strict epidemic prevention, what kind of new excitement will the Spring Festival on the tip of the tongue have?
"Hot spring+New Year’s Eve" products are popular.
Hot spring hotel offers many new year dishes.

Sweet choice:
Where can I eat the "local New Year’s Eve" dinner?
Recently, an online survey attracted everyone’s attention: the topic of the survey was "Will you eat this year’s New Year’s Eve dinner as a family or alone?" In the survey results, both options are almost equally divided. From our discussion, we can find that for some people who "celebrate the New Year on the spot", this year’s New Year’s Eve has become a sweet option.
Xiao Liu, who works as an art designer in a game company, decided to stay in Guangzhou for the Spring Festival this year. He lives in Changsha and has been working in Guangzhou for three years. Although he booked the high-speed rail ticket home early, Xiao Liu immediately returned the high-speed rail ticket and decided to stay in Guangzhou for the New Year after asking his parents for advice some time ago. "In the past, I used to go home for the Spring Festival every year. Of course, I don’t have to worry about the New Year’s Eve. It’s all prepared by my parents and relatives. I just need to bring a mouth. This year is different, and there is no idea about how to eat the New Year’s Eve. " As a single person, Xiao Liu and several young people in the same situation in the company are also discussing recently. It is better to book a New Year’s Eve package in the surrounding hotels, so that everyone can not only solve the problem of New Year’s Eve, but also play around. Xiao Liu said that the reservation of the hotel New Year’s Eve dinner package will be handed over to colleagues who like to travel to organize. When the time comes, it will be AA, so just follow. "Compared with eating New Year’s Eve alone, it’s better to travel around with colleagues and friends for the New Year. I feel relieved and my parents will feel more at ease." Xiao Liu said.
Even families who have been married in Guangzhou for many years and have children are a little "distressed" when faced with small families hosting New Year’s Eve dinner alone. Shirley, who works in a bank, recently posted a paragraph in a circle of friends: "God, I have to prepare for the New Year’s Eve dinner myself. Who can tell me what to do?" Shirley’s troubles have resonated with many friends. "Usually, you can simply cook for your family on weekends, but the New Year’s Eve should be richer. You can’t make any new tricks by yourself. It doesn’t seem special enough to set up a restaurant for a family of three near your home." Shirley said that in addition to the New Year’s Eve dinner, what to prepare for the New Year’s Eve also made her feel a little confused. I went home with my parents in previous years, and this year my small family celebrated the New Year. I was really a little nervous after being excited.
Market situation: the booking volume of tourism products with the theme of "New Year’s Eve" has increased.
The reporter learned that in the past week, the number of local travel bookings of various travel agencies and travel booking platforms has been rising. People who were in a wait-and-see state have also begun to book local travel itineraries during the Spring Festival holiday, and the booking volume has increased by at least 40% to 50% compared with the previous weeks. On Ctrip’s ticket play platform, we can see that local tours are the mainstay of this year’s Spring Festival activities, and related products are also full of "Nianwei". For example, products such as "Nianwei Private Group" and "New Year’s Eve Private Group", which are independently formed in the local area, are popular. The family can sign up for a group, use the car independently, and enjoy the exclusive driver and tour guide privately, which can not only relax the New Year during the journey, but also satisfy the family reunion dinner and the prosperous New Year.
Zou Qingling, CEO of Lvmama Travel Network, said that tourists pay special attention to such contents as "safety", "taste of the year" and "quality" in the Spring Festival booking. The popularity of wine scenery packages and small package tours for three days and two nights or four days and three nights has greatly exceeded expectations, and "hotel+"packaged products are also popular, such as resort hotel+afternoon tea, hotel+tickets+dinner, hotel+children’s park/museum, etc., which are particularly popular locally.
With the approach of the Spring Festival, the related New Year’s Eve travel packages will be booked one after another, and some New Year’s Eve travel packages with high accommodation quality and relatively high customer unit price will be sold out earlier. It is suggested that citizens with relevant travel needs can arrange the New Year’s Eve trip in time.
The hottest: "Hot Springs+New Year’s Eve" is in short supply and there are many repeat customers.
Huang Jingru, vice president of Guangzhou Travel of Lingnan Holdings, said that during the Spring Festival holiday in 2021, citizens and tourists will pay more attention to the province and Zhou Bianyou, and travel themes such as holiday hotel tours and family-friendly farmhouses will be more popular. Young people who spend the Spring Festival in the local area are more inclined to take advantage of the Spring Festival holiday to "stay at home" in holiday hotels in the province. Fogang Xilegu, Sembora, Zengcheng Sanying Hot Spring, Enping Mountain Spring Bay and Huizhou Longmen R&F Hilton are the hot spring resort hotels that have been consulted recently.
Judging from the feedback from many hot spring hotels in the province, "Hot Spring+New Year’s Eve" is the most popular. Citizens and tourists who have the habit of bathing in winter have chosen to spend New Year’s Eve in hot springs, and the special hot spring food has become a popular choice for New Year’s Eve. Taoran Restaurant, online celebrity Restaurant of Guangdong Hot Spring Hotel, has launched a New Year’s Eve reunion dinner, with up to four kinds of packages to choose from. The combination of dishes not only covers the festive New Year’s Eve dishes, but also matches the signature food with high praise. In order to make it easier for holiday tourists to experience more delicious food, Guangdong Hot Spring Hotel also introduced a set meal coupon for one person in the western restaurant. 58. 68 yuan can enjoy the special food of the western restaurant and can also use it during the Spring Festival.
Mao Chenglin, general manager of Taishan Kangqiao Hot Spring Resort, revealed that the recent booking of New Year’s Eve holiday packages in hot springs is good, and the hot springs have specially arranged singing performances to increase the traditional taste of the year and have a happy New Year. "The tourists who book New Year’s Eve and holiday packages are mainly repeat customers in Guangzhou, Foshan, Zhongshan and Dongguan. Everyone has high requirements for pure spring water, fresh air and healthy food. We will also ensure the quality of service and increase the fun of travel for tourists under the premise of strictly implementing prevention and control of epidemic prevention." Mao Chenglin revealed that at present, nearly 50% of the New Year’s Eve dinner package has been booked, and it is expected to enter the booking peak in the next few days.
Variety: the hotel’s "New Year’s Eve" plays multi-scene services
"Celebrating the New Year on the spot" has given birth to the surrounding hotel fever. The reporter learned from the recent hotel reservation data of Lingnan Holdings Guangzhi Travel that the order volume of hotels in the province for the Spring Festival in the past week or two has increased by 60% compared with last week, and the number of consultations has soared by three times. Many of them have recently booked hotel-related products on New Year’s Eve (February 11) and the first day of the year (February 12), and they have enjoyed higher cost performance while traveling at the wrong peak.
It is understood that in the past week or two, local hotels have launched the "New Year’s Eve" takeaway service, which also provides new solutions for those who "celebrate the New Year on the spot" and eat at home. The reporter learned that in addition to the take-out of potted vegetables in previous years, many hotels have also launched special New Year’s Eve take-out options according to different numbers and taste preferences. Intercontinental Hotels Group revealed that hotels around the group have recently launched their own special New Year’s Eve take-out service, which allows guests to enjoy delicious food at home and also keeps a warm taste for those who stay behind for the New Year. It is understood that some hotels can provide meals for 4-6 people and 8-10 people according to the needs of guests, vacuum-packed, heated and ready to eat at home, or "star chef arrives home" take-away family banquet, professional chefs can cook private delicious food at home, hotel chefs have also accepted nucleic acid testing, and all hotel ingredients have been strictly tested. In addition, the hotel has launched a variety of online chef cooking courses, including homemade snacks, home cooking, etc., with the sales of potted dishes and other new year gift boxes and semi-finished gift boxes, and attached cooking methods, so that guests can easily cook delicious dishes at home.
Recently, in the "Online New Year Festival" launched by Guangzhi Travel, the reporter found that the new year products have not only included products such as grain, oil and rice noodles, imported snacks, etc., but also the New Year’s Eve and potted dishes of major hotels have become hot-selling products. The featured potted dishes and dishes of well-known hotels in China, Liuhua Hotel, Deli Private Kitchen, Jiayi Crown Hotel, etc. are hot-selling, with rich choices.
However, if you choose to eat out on New Year’s Eve, the hotel’s New Year’s Eve has also introduced some new scenes and new ways of playing. Various "New Year’s Eve+Theme Parks" provide more experience environments for New Year’s Eve and meet the needs of parents and children. Guangzhou Poly Intercontinental Hotel said that in order to increase the atmosphere of the New Year, the multi-function hall on the second floor of the hotel will be transformed into a Spring Festival Garden Party on New Year’s Eve. The hotel has carefully prepared a children’s playground for the children, and guests can take their families to play from 3: 30 in the afternoon. There are also many activities at the same venue, such as writing Spring Festival couplets, making Chinese knots, tasting classic snacks such as Sugar-Coated Berry, beef offal, jiaozi and fried piles, and there will be wonderful programs at the New Year’s Eve dinner. According to the hotel, providing guests with a comprehensive and secure dining experience is the first priority. Therefore, the hotel will strictly follow the epidemic prevention guidelines of relevant departments. At that time, it will carry out temperature measurement, information registration and provide contact-free disposable disinfection gel, disposable protective masks and other epidemic prevention items to remind guests to pay attention to social distance and take personal epidemic prevention measures. According to Intercontinental Guangzhou Poly Hotel, the interval between tables in the banquet is one meter, and public chopsticks are provided for each guest. In addition to reserving enough space, the hotel will arrange for the guests to arrive at the hotel at the wrong peak, and choose the guests who are at home for the New Year’s Eve. The hotel provides the whole package service of the New Year’s Eve dinner, aluminum foil boxes, machine seals and insulation bags to ensure that the hot New Year’s Eve dinner is delivered to the guests safely.
Guangzhou Four Seasons Hotel revealed that during the Spring Festival, there will be a traditional China New Year layout in the lobby of the hotel, and a Spring Festival reunion banquet will also be prepared in the Michelin one-star Chinese restaurant. From February 8 to March 7, the invivo conference hall on the 99th floor of the hotel will be arranged as a children’s paradise, equipped with a series of children’s toys and popular game machines, so that children can play in the clouds.

Hotel upgraded parent-child room features attractive
In this year’s Spring Festival holiday, the trend of consumers’ "hotel vacation" is more obvious. According to data from Ctrip, Shanghai, Sanya, Beijing, Guangzhou, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Dali, Shenzhen and Chongqing are the top ten cities for hotel bookings during the Spring Festival this year. Users who are resident in first-tier and new first-tier cities are more willing to treat themselves and spend the Spring Festival with their families through "hotel vacations".
It is understood that recently, local hotels have attracted local tourists to celebrate the New Year on the spot by upgrading their parent-child rooms, and the design of parent-child rooms has made people shine. Guangzhou Four Seasons Hotel has recently selected the landscape rooms located on the 90th floor and with an area of over 60 square meters, and carried out comprehensive renovation. With the design concept of "Happy in the Cloud", it has created a series of play facilities that are very popular among children. The cloud slide in the parent-child room is a big toy for children to play all day. The bunk bed in the airship cabin is also unique in shape, and there is also a "castle hot air balloon" floating in the air, which is wrapped in a transparent hot air balloon. According to the hotel, the newly renovated parent-child room is designed to cater to the demand of "celebrating the New Year on the spot" for high-end parent-child holidays, because parent-child travel is becoming more and more popular in the tourism and holiday market, and the travel requirements and expectations of high-end family travelers are getting higher and higher.
It is understood that the parent-child room is a characteristic product in the hotel room type, and it is also a product with higher price than other ordinary rooms in the same hotel. Some hotel operators revealed that in addition to promoting parent-child rooms, it is more important to dig deep into the consumption demand points of parent-child consumer groups and expand the experience scenes of parent-child rooms in order to attract more repeat customers of parent-child vacations.
