??1905 movie network news　On the evening of May 18, Sicong satirized Fan Bingbing and Zhang Xinyu as "blanket stars" on Weibo, saying that "in addition to having no works at all and not being able to act, the fire mainly depends on the topic of gossip and hype", which triggered a war of words between him and Fan Bingbing Zhang Xinyu. Wang Sicong even commented in yellow under Fan Bingbing Weibo: "Well, **** your Jinbao Xueqi Family Seal."

??On May 22, Fan Bingbing Studio issued a statement saying: "’Rumors stop at the wise’ is an extravagant hope. After all, wise people are not often available. This statement we have to make, even though we are unwilling to make it, is to convey the calmness of not being afraid of rumors and the belief in the truth. Let all unhappiness end here. Thank you to the friends who have always trusted and supported Fan Bingbing. Your encouragement is the motivation for her to work hard." Attached was a lawyer’s statement letter, and Huang Ziying, the publicity director of Fan Bingbing Studio, also wrote a paragraph expressing her dissatisfaction with "rumors".

Who is it? What is it? Seeking the truth…"

??Then, Li Chen really forwarded Weibo to support Fan Bingbing, and Xie Na, Wang Zulan, Angelababy, Zhao Wei, Lin Xinru, etc. also forwarded their support.

Fan Bingbing Studio Statement:

　　Qubit, report | official account QbitAI

　　Nvidia’s new AI can quickly turn a golden retriever in a video into a meerkat.

　　Just show the AI two static pictures of meerkats:

　　Before seeing these two images, the AI had never seen an animal like a meerkat, not in the training dataset.

　　There were many other animals that the AI had never seen before. Just give it a photo or two to familiarize it with, and you can replace the golden hair with their faces.

　　For example, ferocious big cats:

　　In this way, the Golden Retriever’s relatives, such as huskies, are even more concerned:

　　Although the same translation is from picture to picture, and the same is unsupervised, this AI is very different from the predecessors of the horse-turned-zebra. The predecessors can only translate between animals they have seen. During training, I have seen many horses and many zebras;

　　And NVIDIA’s new contestant is equivalent to never seeing a zebra in training. Animals that are not in the training dataset, as long as they can see one or two pictures during the test, it is enough.

　　The Few-Shot Learning algorithm greatly reduces the requirements for training data.

　　The team has open-sourced the algorithm and launched a one-click face-changing demo. So, let’s play with it today and then talk about the principle.

　　The wrong and correct way to open

　　I tried the demo on the chicken freezer.

　　The first question is to pass a cold meow up and select the head with the box.

　　?? Thank you to my old Si Xia

　　Therefore, all kinds of animals have gained a cold side.

　　The second question, passed a Rebs up, which was also half-sided:

　　Unexpectedly, the orcs who generated the aura of nobility:

　　AI’s artistic talent is upon us, but I still want to solemnly remind you:

　　The demo application is called PetSwap. Please select the correct opening method. Here is the correct demonstration.

　　The third question is to break through the dimensional wall. Go, Detective Pikachu:

　　Everyone donned Sherlock Holmes hats, but only the hound in the upper right corner unlocked the sexy blush.

　　What an elegant and fulfilling morning.

　　Play enough, it’s time to see the principle.

　　Never seen animals, just take a look

　　As mentioned at the beginning, this is a small sample translator. It needs to replace a Content Image, such as a golden retriever, with a Class Image, such as a husky or a cougar.

　　The model is divided into three parts:

　　One is the Content Encoder, the pink part. It maps the input content map (Golden Retriever) to a Content Latent Code.

　　The second is the class encoder (Class Encoder), the green part. First map each class map (Husky) to a code. Then take an average to get the entire class code.

　　The third is the decoder (Decoder), the blue part. First map the category lattice code to the adaIN parameter, and then decode the content lattice code to generate the translation result map.

　　When training, there are golden retrievers and huskies in the dataset. The AI is between these categories and cultivates the face-changing skill:

　　However, there are no cougars in the training dataset. What should I do to generate cougars during testing?

　　Here’s the secret: When the class diagram and the content diagram look the same, let the model generate a reconstruction.

　　In this way, as long as you temporarily look at a cougar (or a few) during the test, you can turn the unseen moment into a seen one. It is not difficult for the AI to translate the dog in the training dataset into a cougar:

　　You’re done.

　　Go play, too!

　　Such a (excellent) show of AI, you must also want to train it.

I am happy that the revenue reached a new high. According to the data, in 2023, the total revenue of NIO increased by 12.9% year-on-year to 55.62 billion yuan. Among them, the sales of automobiles were 49.2573 billion yuan, an increase of 8.2% year-on-year. The increase in revenue was mainly due to the increase in sales of NIO in the past year. NIO delivered 160,000 new cars in 2023, an increase of 37% year-on-year. But this figure did not meet NIO’s original target of 250,000 vehicles.

Hefei Jianghuai NIO Factory

The worry is that losses have intensified. According to the financial report data, NIO’s net loss in 2023 was 20.72 billion yuan, an increase of 43.5% year-on-year; the adjusted net loss was 18.30 billion yuan, an increase of 51% year-on-year. During the reporting period, NIO’s gross profit margin and automobile gross profit margin both declined compared with the previous year. NIO’s gross profit margin fell from 10.4% last year to 5.5%, and automobile gross profit margin fell from 13.7% last year to 9.5%.

It is reported that in order to cope with market competition and expand sales scale, NIO will officially launch a sub-brand of 200,000-300,000 yuan mass market this year, code-named "Alps", the first model will be released in the second quarter of this year, and delivery will start in the fourth quarter.

NIO CEO Li Bin sees the new brand as an inflection point in NIO’s performance. He revealed that the first car of the sub-brand will compete directly with Tesla Model Y, and said that the cost will also be about 10% lower than Model Y. In addition, Li Bin said at the earnings conference that there will be more than 100,000 yuan of models listed next.

In terms of cash reserves, as of December 31, 2023, NIO held about 57.30 billion yuan in cash and cash equivalents. This was mainly due to two rounds of strategic investments totaling $3.30 billion by Abu Dhabi investment institution CYVN in the second half of last year.

However, NIO still has two huge bills to pay, a $29.77 billion payable and a $9.82 billion loan.

Previously, NIO has made it clear that the NIO brand will not release a new car in 2024, which means that before the first model of the sub-brand is officially delivered in the fourth quarter, the eight models currently on sale by NIO will still bear the responsibility of supporting NIO for a long time.

Looking ahead to this year’s Quarter 1, NIO expects its new car deliveries to be between 31,000 – 33,000 vehicles; revenue is expected to be between 10.499 billion – 11.087 billion yuan, and NIO brand gross margin will reach 15% -18% this year.

This year’s Jackie Chan International Action Film Week features 10 films from China, the United States, Brazil, Pakistan, Indonesia, Russia, India and other countries competing for Best Picture and seven "Iron Man" honors in different categories.

　

The jury, which decides the honors, is also more international. It is made up of directors and actors from China, Russia, Canada, Japan and other countries. The famous director, producer, and director of the series, Tsui Hark, is the chairperson of the jury.

　

Russian director Sergei Podlov; New Zealand director Martin Campbell, who once directed; producer, screenwriter, Canadian screenwriter and director Paul Haggis; Japanese action actor Kurata Baoaki, who has participated in a large number of Hong Kong action films; Thai director Prakia Pingkeyao, who has directed other action films, and Chinese actor Xu Fan, winner of the 14th China Film Huabiao Award for Outstanding Actress, made an official appearance at the opening ceremony as a judge and Chairman Xu Ke.

　

"These six filmmakers are experienced in film and have different aesthetic experiences in different cultures," Tsui Hark said at the opening ceremony. He saw his participation in Jackie Chan Film Week as a unique experience and learning opportunity, and hoped to share rare professional and aesthetic exchanges with other judges. Tsui Hark also expressed the hope that the selection of various honors this year can be more exciting and fair.

　

Actor Zhu Yilong, who appeared at the opening ceremony as a youth promotion ambassador for this year’s film week, regarded Jackie Chan as an idol on his career path, and revealed on stage that Jackie Chan’s mobile phone kept a video of Jackie Chan receiving the Oscar for Lifetime Achievement.

Zhu Yilong said that Jackie Chan set an example for young actors: "Jackie Chan has become a spirit in my heart. I will use my full strength and focus to interpret the word actor."

　

Zhu Yilong recalled seeing the hard work of action filmmakers more than once in filming, with people falling, injured and even being taken to the hospital. "Thank you for your efforts," he said onstage. "I feel like you are protecting the well-being of the actors. You are the real unsung heroes of this industry."

　　Affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, at present, the medium and high-risk areas in Guangzhou, Guangdong are under closed management, and all personnel can only enter and exit. During this time, Guangzhou has further increased the supply of materials to these closed key areas to meet the daily needs of residents.

　　On the 11th, dozens of trucks loaded with high-quality agricultural products departed from Qingyuan and headed for Guangzhou. These goods, covering more than 10 kinds of high-quality agricultural products such as zongzi, Qingyuan chicken and eggs, were delivered to Liwan District, Yuexiu District and other places in Guangzhou.

　　Li Chunni, head of Qingyuan Agricultural Enterprise:The chickens go directly from the chicken coop to the slaughterhouse within 1 hour by special car. The products are operated in strict accordance with standards, and the vehicles and outer packaging are strictly disinfected before leaving the warehouse, and the whole process is cold chain. We will donate 2,000 Qingyuan chickens and 36,000 newborn eggs to express our concern. The Dragon Boat Festival is approaching. I would like to say to the staff working on the front line that you have worked hard.

　　In addition, in order to ensure the living needs of residents in closed areas, the Guangzhou Municipal Department of Commerce has also launched online and offline supply guarantee enterprises to increase the organization of supply sources and increase the number and types of material supply points. For medium-risk areas, the number of material supply points set up within the community has also increased from the first dozen to 127, making it convenient for residents to purchase.

　　Residents of the closed area:This is chicken, vegetables and eggs. You can eat whatever you want. The chicken thighs should be done at night.

　　At the same time, the Guangzhou Municipal Department of Commerce has increased the distribution of takeaway smart cabinets offline, expanded contactless distribution services, and ensured the category of materials. On the basis of eight main and by-staple foods such as grain, oil, rice, noodles, meat, poultry, eggs and milk, it has gradually increased the supply of more than 30 varieties of food ingredients such as fruits, cured flavors, biscuits, canned food, and seasonings. In particular, it has increased the supply of food such as rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival to enrich residents’ tables.

　　Lin Guoqiang, Deputy Director of Guangzhou Municipal Bureau of Commerce:Now the entire supply has been guaranteed from the very beginning, and gradually through the supply of platforms and the guarantee of offline enterprises, the diversity of residents’ lives has been realized. This includes the supply of our ingredients, the supply of food, and the supply of general daily necessities, which are also gradually being carried out.

　　After the first phase of the announcement of the online car-hailing service rate ("commission"), Didi’s "Questions and Answers" launched the second phase of the content today, focusing on the price issues that drivers and passengers are generally concerned about. Guo Fei, technical director of Didi’s online car-hailing supply and demand strategy department, answered the factors that determine the price change of online car-hailing and solicited comments and suggestions from the public.

　　Guo Fei pointed out that, like the "fruit freedom" that has caused heated discussions in the media and netizens some time ago, the decrease in supply and extreme weather have led to the increase in the price of vegetables and fruits, and netizens have said that they cannot afford to eat fruits. The price of online car-hailing is affected by factors such as supply and demand, local consumption level, income level and energy price. Among them, supply and demand are the most important and complex factors. Passenger demand is stronger in morning and evening peaks, extreme weather, hot summer and cold, and driver willingness, compliance policies, safety and security will affect the supply of drivers. Any change in demand or supply will upset the original balance.

　　Guo Fei said that the relationship between supply and demand fundamentally determines the fluctuation of prices. Only when the demand for travel is growing rapidly, and the city continues to be in short supply and capacity shortage, the price needs to be raised. But when the supply and demand are balanced, random price increases will definitely reduce the demand for passengers to take a taxi, directly affecting the income of drivers and platforms, which also determines that Didi will not raise prices at will. Didi will continue to work hard to continuously explore the characteristics of temporal and spatial changes related to supply and demand and analyze the influencing factors, summarize the laws of supply and demand changes in the travel field; respect the market, so as to better serve users.

　　Since September last year, Didi has continued to strengthen dialogue and communication with the public, and has successively launched communication columns such as "Public Council", "Answers to Questions", and "Safe Release". Didi will continue to be open and transparent, and actively work with all sectors of society to build a safe and healthy travel ecosystem.

　　The following are the original questions and answers of Didi’s second "Ask and Answer":

　　What factors determine the price of a car on Didi?

　　(Guo Fei, Technical Director of Online Car-hailing Supply and Demand Strategy Department)

　　Passenger:

　　Taxi prices often change, so why should Didi adjust it?

　　Peak price increases, is Didi taking advantage of the fire?

　　Driver:

　　Oil prices are rising, and the air conditioner is turned on in summer. Should the fare be increased?

　　What should I do if I change the car and insurance after compliance, the cost is high and the income is less?

　　After answering the questions related to "platform service rates (commonly known as commissions) " in the last issue of "Questions and Answers", we received feedback and questions from many driver masters and passenger friends, including many of the above questions about online ride-hailing prices.

　　In fact, just like the "fruit freedom" that caused heated discussions in the media and netizens some time ago, the decrease in supply and extreme weather have led to the increase in the price of vegetables and fruits, and netizens have said that they cannot afford to eat fruits. The fluctuation of online car-hailing prices is also similar, which is affected by factors such as supply and demand conditions, local consumption levels, income levels and energy prices. Among them, the supply and demand situation is the most important and complex factor. Any change in demand or supply will upset the original balance.

　　Demand: Morning and evening peaks, extreme weather, heat and cold are more vigorous

　　There are travel tides in the city, not only is it difficult to take a taxi in the morning and evening peaks, but also in bad weather, extreme heat and cold and peak tourist seasons, using Didi to call a car will also encounter "queues", because there are more people taking a taxi at this time, and everyone hopes to travel conveniently and comfortably.

　　During the peak of the working day, or when the spring flowers are blooming and the autumn is cool, the number of people traveling by bus, subway, and bicycle will increase, and the number of people taking taxis will be relatively small. At this time, it is easier for passengers to order a car, but the driver’s perception is "less orders."

　　Supply: Affected by driver willingness, compliance policy, safety assurance, etc

　　During holidays such as the Spring Festival and National Day, drivers prefer to accompany their families or travel, rather than go out to take orders. However, in rainy days, severe road flooding or other extreme weather, for their own safety reasons and to avoid vehicle damage, the number of drivers leaving the car will also be greatly reduced.

　　Although the number of passengers taking taxis increases in summer, turning on the air conditioner will also significantly increase fuel consumption and increase additional costs. Therefore, drivers often decide whether to take orders based on their income, weather, traffic jams, etc., which also leads to constant changes in supply.

　　In addition, the implementation rules for the management of online car-hailing business services in various places have different regulations on the access of drivers and vehicles, and relatively few drivers meet this condition. Drivers change vehicles according to restrictions such as vehicle wheelbase, displacement, and vehicle price, and pay operating insurance, which also greatly increases costs, and even some drivers change careers as a result.

　　Another thing to note is that since last September, we have continued to upgrade our security, and we have intensively launched security measures such as late-night service driver standards, APP facial recognition, and in-car video recording equipment, which have also affected the supply to a certain extent.

　　Price adjustments help to ease the imbalance between supply and demand

　　When a city’s response rate continues to decline at certain times or throughout the day for a certain period of time, and the supply and demand are obviously out of balance, passengers will feel that it is difficult to get a taxi, and 3 out of every 10 taxis may not be called, as happened in Shenyang recently. When prices are appropriately raised, price-sensitive demand will be reduced, and at the same time, more drivers will be attracted and encouraged to get out of the car and go to hot spots to take orders. Supply and demand can be balanced. At present, most cities are in a state of more passengers and less drivers.

　　On the contrary, if a city has a long-term oversupply during certain periods or throughout the day, and drivers receive fewer orders for a long time, they will not be able to obtain a reasonable income. At this time, the price of online car-hailing is appropriately reduced, which not only allows passengers to get a ride at a cheaper price, but also guarantees the driver’s income. For example, in the first half of this year, the express train in Jiyuan, Henan Province, and the special car in Hefei, Anhui Province, and the special car in Urumqi, Xinjiang Province, have been oversupplied for a long time in some periods, so the starting price, mileage fee and duration fee for the corresponding period have been reduced.

　　The relationship between supply and demand fundamentally determines the fluctuation of prices. Prices need to be raised only when the demand for travel is growing rapidly, and the city continues to be in short supply and capacity shortage. But when supply and demand are in balance, random price increases will definitely reduce the demand for passengers to take a taxi, directly affecting the income of drivers and platforms, which also determines that Didi will not raise prices at will. Due to the continuous development of the economic level and urbanization process, the demand for travel and the labor and living costs of drivers in most cities continue to grow, so everyone will feel that prices have risen more and fallen less.

　　The supply and demand situation is complex and changeable, and we are still working hard to continuously explore the characteristics of spatiotemporal changes related to supply and demand and analyze the influencing factors, summarize the laws of supply and demand changes in the travel sector, and respect the market in order to better serve users.

On January 16, at the 2024 Changan Automobile Global Partner Conference, Zhu Huarong, Chairperson of Changan Automobile, responded to and shared the establishment of a joint venture with Huawei, the 2024 sales target, and recent personnel changes.

"The new joint venture between Changan and Huawei is tentatively named’Newcool ‘." According to Zhu Huarong, since August last year, the two sides have carried out multiple rounds of exchanges on the establishment of the new company. The two sides are very compatible in terms of industrial judgment, development concepts, and cooperation ideas. Therefore, in less than three months, Changan and Huawei reached a cooperation intention and signed an "Investment Cooperation Memorandum" at the end of November last year.

It is reported that the two sides are conducting transactions and cooperation agreement negotiations, and all related work is progressing smoothly as planned. The new company is mainly engaged in the research and development, design, production, sales and service of automotive intelligence systems and component solutions. The business scope includes seven major fields such as automotive intelligent driving solutions, automotive intelligent cockpit, intelligent vehicle digital platform, intelligent vehicle cloud, AR-HUD and intelligent lights. Zhu Huarong also mentioned that during the cooperation process, Huawei promised not to engage in the whole vehicle business; not to engage in the new company business; for the smart selection business, the two sides have also done good research and discussion.

In addition to the cooperation form mentioned above, Avita, a brand of Changan Automobile, and Huawei adopt the HI model (Huawei provides full-stack integrated solutions), which is also the only one among the mainstream car companies. In this regard, Zhu Huarong explained that doing so (adopting the HI model) is in line with the laws of the industry and meets the requirements of industrial policies, so that the interests of users can be fundamentally guaranteed. We and Huawei’s innovative model, strong alliances, complementary advantages, maximize their respective advantages, and form a bundle of interests. From another perspective, this is also the best result of the CHN model.

In 2023, Avita 11 and Avita 12 will be launched on the market, of which Avita 12 will make its world debut at the Munich Motor Show, and will break through 20,000 cars in the first month of listing. Avita 12 is equipped with HarmonyOS 4.0. At the same time, Avita 12 is also equipped with Huawei’s high-end intelligent driving system ADS2.0, which reduces dependence on high-precision maps and realizes a very "smart" driving experience covering all scenarios such as high-speed sections, urban sections and parking links.

As the second product of Avita and an important phased achievement of the mid-term goal of "four-year four-car", Avita 12 adheres to the product concept of "forward-looking design" and "warm technology", and will also open up a new market in the luxury coupe field, creating a unique and futuristic travel and life experience for users.

Changan and Huawei’s new company is named "Newcool". The first reaction to seeing this news is that Avita 12 is going to take off in situ. With the deep blessing of these two dads, future cutting-edge technologies should give Avita 12 priority. Looking forward to living in the family!
