Geely Automobile’s revenue increased by 45.6% in 2022, and the electrification and intelligent transformation accelerated again.

On March 21, Geely Automobile released its 2022 performance report, showing that the company realized revenue of 148 billion yuan, up 45.6% year-on-year, a record high; The net profit of returning to the mother was 5.26 billion yuan, an increase of 8.5% year-on-year; Affected by the price increase of raw materials and the increase in the proportion of new energy, the overall gross profit margin fell to 14.1%, but the average single gross profit increased by 11.1% to 17,500 yuan; Profits from technology and authorized services continued to grow steadily, up 29.9% year-on-year; Jizhi auto finance profit increased by 15.3% year-on-year.

In 2022, Geely Automobile increased its investment in intelligent electrification research and development, with the investment increasing by 51.2% to 8.4 billion yuan compared with the same period of last year; Strong financial position, operating cash flow increased by 4% to 16 billion yuan; The total cash level rose by 20.4% to 33.7 billion yuan.

Behind the sound financial performance, it is inseparable from the support of new car sales that have achieved growth in adversity. In 2022, the total sales volume of Geely Automobile reached 1.433 million vehicles, up about 8% year-on-year, outperforming the domestic automobile market, and its production and sales exceeded one million vehicles for six consecutive years.

Among them, Geely Automobile’s new energy sector has a bright market performance and has become a new driving force for the company’s growth. In 2022, the sales volume of Geely Automobile’s new energy products was 328,700, and the penetration rate of new energy in a single month exceeded 30% for many times, which doubled compared with the same period of last year. In 2023, Geely Automobile set the sales target at 1.65 million vehicles, an increase of about 220,000 vehicles over the previous year, of which the sales of new energy doubled compared with 2022.

While the sales volume is rising rapidly, Geely Automobile is accelerating the goal of sustained upward brand value. Take Extreme Krypton, a luxury intelligent pure electric brand, as an example. In 2022, Extreme Krypton delivered 71,900 vehicles throughout the year, exceeding the annual target. Among them, Extreme Krypton 001 is the only China brand luxury pure electric vehicle among ten thousand clubs in the luxury car market, with an average order amount exceeding 336,000 yuan, and it continues to be the sales champion of China brand pure electric vehicle with more than 300,000 yuan. The second model, the original pure electric luxury MPV— — The delivery of Krypton 009 was started in January 2023, and the average order amount exceeded 520,000 yuan.

In fact, with the gradual deepening of electrification and intelligence in the automobile industry, the domestic high-end new energy market has huge room for growth, and it has also become a great opportunity for major independent brands to rise upwards. According to the prediction of Zhang Yongwei, vice chairman and secretary general of China electric vehicle committee of 100, in 2023, the production and sales of China new energy vehicle market is expected to increase by 40% year-on-year, and the penetration rate is close to 40%, and the overall scale is expected to reach 10 million vehicles. Combined with the analysis of factors such as vehicle supply and vehicle life cycle cost, it is expected that the penetration of high-end new energy vehicles will accelerate this year, and the sales structure of new energy vehicles will continue to be optimized from dumbbell to spindle.

In this context, Geely Automobile is actively improving the product layout in the middle and high-end market segments. In February this year, Geely Automobile officially released a brand-new high-end new energy series — — "Geely Yinhe", the first smart electric hybrid SUV, Geely Yinhe L7 officially opened the reservation and will be delivered in the second quarter of this year. In addition, Geely has also released new energy electrification technologies such as Aegis battery safety system, Raytheon Hybrid 8848, and the brand-new car operating system "Yinhe NOS", which will be installed on the Geely Yinhe L7 model for the first time.

Soochow securities released a research report saying that the layout of "Geely Galaxy High-end Sequence+Low-end Geometry+High-end Krypton" is full-priced, the launch of "Geometry+Krypton" new car, the new release of Galaxy subsequence, the two-way power of EV+PHEV, and the blessing of Raytheon hybrid technology will help Geely Automobile to accelerate its transformation to new energy sources.

Over the years, Geely Automobile has insisted on independent innovation, increased R&D investment and achieved remarkable results. It not only leads domestic counterparts, but also successfully exports advanced technology to overseas markets. Now, the income from technology and authorized services has become another bright spot of Geely Automobile’s profit growth.

In 2022, Geely Automobile Technology and Authorized Services achieved a total revenue of 1.66 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 29.9%.

Specifically, with Proton Automobile and Geely Automobile entering the seventh year hand in hand, Geely strategically exported a variety of products and engine technologies to help Proton achieve sales growth and make efforts in overseas markets. In 2022, Proton Motor’s performance increased for the fourth consecutive year, with a total sales volume of 141,400 vehicles, accounting for about 19.6% of the market. It was the only company in Malaysia’s automobile industry that achieved performance growth from 2019 to 2022. At the same time, Proton Motor’s sales in the international market increased to 5,406 vehicles in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 79.1%, making it an export leader in the industry.

Not only that, Geely Automobile’s technical empowerment has also penetrated into the developed countries of automobile industry for the first time. In May last year, Geely Automobile invested in Renault Korea Automobile, and will launch efficient and energy-saving fuel and smart hybrid vehicles in the Korean market. The new product adopts the world-class CMA modular architecture developed by Geely’s R&D center in Sweden, and uses the advanced hybrid technology of Geely Holding Group to provide users with an experience beyond expectations.

Behind Geely Automobile’s achievements, it is inseparable from the support and empowerment of Geely Holding Group.

"In the past two or three years, the financial position of Geely Holding is very good. Geely Holding has always maintained a fully supportive attitude towards the development of Geely Automobile and continued to help the development of listed companies. In the future, under the premise of complying with regulatory rules and marketization principles, the assets cultivated by Geely Holding are also open to listed companies. " Li Donghui, CEO of Geely Holding Group, Vice Chairman and Executive Director of Geely Automobile Holdings Limited, said.

In recent years, Geely Holding Group has made full progress towards technological transformation, making cross-border innovations in the fields of new energy technology, intelligent driving, three-electricity, on-board chips, operating systems, low-orbit satellites, etc., building the full-stack self-research ecosystem capacity around core technologies and accelerating the formation of a moat.

According to industry analysis, Geely Holding Group has laid out a series of front-end technologies, which has promoted the core competitiveness of enterprises and continuously released the ecological value of science and technology, thus continuing to empower Geely Automobile, bringing users a product experience that exceeds expectations and creating long-term returns for investors.

Focusing on building cars is not limited to cars. Under the guidance of Geely Holding Group, Geely Automobile’s accelerated transformation to intelligent technology companies has achieved initial results. Geely Automobile actively lays out the entire industrial chain of smart electric vehicles, realizes software-defined vehicles, tamps down core technologies, and develops the hard-core "technology ecology" of Geely Holding Group, promoting the rapid landing of the "Smart Geely 2025" strategy, and enabling Geely’s technology ecology to travel in the future.

Yan Jiayue, CEO of Geely Automobile Group, revealed that in the field of intelligent driving, the "Heaven and Earth Integration" version of Galaxy Intelligent Driving Scheme based on Geely Satellite will be launched soon. Geely’s self-developed centimeter-level satellite high-precision positioning module has passed the certification of vehicle regulations, and can realize real-time accurate positioning by integrating Geely satellite communication, navigation and remote sensing technologies.

In addition, the first "cloud, number and intelligence" integrated super cloud computing platform for global car companies — — Geely Star Smart Computing Center was officially launched, with a cloud computing power of 8.1 billion times per second, which can improve the overall research and development efficiency of Geely by 20%. The official launch of the Geely Star Smart Computing Center marks that Geely has entered the "smart computing era" of building cars and achieved the leading intergenerational advantage in the smart computing industry.

In the future, Geely will persist in scientific and technological innovation, continue to promote new energy technologies, and strengthen scientific and technological ecology to empower smart driving and smart travel; Deepen international business, speed up resource coordination, and lay a more solid foundation for the sustainable development of Geely Automobile.

Xiaomi SU7 21.59, Lei Jun became the man who lifted the table.

Original taoran AI lanmeihui

Author | Tao Ran Wei Xiao

Finally, with the familiar Xiaomi BGM ringing, Lei Jun in a suit and tie went to the center of the stage of Xiaomi SU7 conference.

In the audience, the front row are the heads of five automobile companies-Li Bin, He Xiaopeng, Li Xiang, Wei Jianjun and Zhang Jianyong.

Of course, there is also the concern of the rim and even the whole network-the three-year period has arrived, and Lei Jun has to hand in his homework.

The highlight is that everyone guessed the price for several months: Xiaomi SU7 standard version is 215,900 yuan, PRO version is 245,900 yuan, and MAX version is 299,900 yuan.

The audience exclaimed.

However, Lei Jun is still a little careful. He made so many preparations in the early stage and asked everyone to spray lightly if they have any opinions.

The logic of benchmarking with Tesla Model 3 and Porsche Taycan is very millet and honest.

Insufficient places, do not shy away. But at the same time, I am very confident. When talking about core competitiveness such as intelligent ecology and other higher configuration performance, the platform shouted "far ahead" and then quickly "floated, floated".

However, the sales data undoubtedly gave Xiaomi and Lei Jun a shot in the arm: only 27 minutes after the sale, Xiaomi SU 7 has exceeded 50,000 units.

Lei Jun is still the Lei Jun who lived up to expectations.

After the release of SU7, his last venture also entered a new chapter.

It is certainly difficult to achieve the goal that Xiaomi Automobile will hit the top five global car companies in 15-20 years, but Lei Jun has already taken the first step.

And this first step is a long-lost bombing of the car circle.

Lift the table

Lei Jun was very straightforward on the stage: Xiaomi SU7 was made according to Tesla Model 3.

But in fact, it only includes the standard version and the Pro version: the former configuration is basically the same as the Tesla Model 3 rear-drive version, but the price of 215,900 is 30,000 lower than that of Tesla (245,900), and the parameters of the latter are almost all-round. Rolling the rear-drive Model 3, the price is completely equal to it.

As for the Xiaomi SU7 Max version with a price of 299,900 yuan, Lei Jun said that he wanted to target Porsche Taycan and "leapfrog the benchmark".

Without the 300,000+previously speculated, after the momentum of the rim rushing to lift the millet table passed, Lei Jun used a set of pricing of 21.59-29.99 to lift the biggest one.

In the series of "Lei Jun answers questions from netizens" released some time ago, the top leader of Xiaomi Automobile said that he is a Tesla owner and a Porsche owner, and called the two car companies "time benchmarks" in the history of electric vehicles and sports cars.

However, he also stressed that if Xiaomi wants to build a car, it must be compared with these best car factories in the world: "There must be some places where they do well, and some places where we do well."

Today’s press conference, after pricing and configuration overwhelmed Model 3, Lei Jun mentioned Porsche and once again stressed that dare to compete is to win, and it will definitely surpass it in the future.

Very excited and confident.

Xiaomi SU7 is positioned as a "pure electric luxury car", and Lei Jun’s goal is to become "the best looking, best driving and most intelligent car within 500,000". In addition to Model 3 on PPT, there are actually P7 from Tucki and ET5 from Weilai.

Judging from the official pricing, the current dealer quotation of the latest Model 3 is 245,900-285,900, with 245,900 rear drives and 285,900 long-life four-wheel drives. The price ranges of Tucki P7 and Weilai ET5 are 20.99-339,900 and 298-356,000 respectively, which are almost overlapping.

As for the configuration and performance, as Lei Jun said, it is far ahead-taking the comparison between the new version of Model 3 and the standard version of SU7 as an example, in terms of performance, Model 3 has an acceleration of 6.1s, a peak power of 194kW, a total torque of 340N·m, and a pure electric cruising range of CLTC of 713km. The four data of Xiaomi SU 7 standard edition are 5.28s, 220kW, 400N·m and 700km, which are almost completely beyond the parameter level.

The only two shortcomings that have been circled are: first, the power consumption of 100 kilometers, Xiaomi’s 12.3kWh/100Km lags behind Tesla’s 11.3kWh/100Km, but Lei Jun said that the SU7 battery is bigger and the cruising range is longer when actually used; The other is intelligent driving and computing power, which Tesla leads by a wide margin, but Lei Jun thinks that Xiaomi’s intelligent driving system will be more suitable for the drivers’ physique in China and the domestic road system.

Obviously, Lei Jun is well prepared for the pure electric car market in the range of 200,000-300,000. Just, I don’t know how He Xiaopeng and Li Bin sitting in the audience feel now, where is the way out for P7 and ET5, and how to play the next generation products.

And, Musk on the other side of the ocean will take a look at Xiaomi SU7 with the time difference.

Create another millet

With the release of SU7, Xiaomi also officially entered the new energy track.

The role of Lei Jun has also changed significantly. It used to be Reebs, but now it is Reske. Looking around the world, only Lei Jun has managed to personally grasp the two mainstream smart consumer goods "mobile phone" and "car".

There are no tricks in the process.

In three years, 3,400 engineers spent more than 10 billion yuan on research and development, and of course, the model worker Lei Jun went all out.

The financial report shows that in 2023, Xiaomi invested as much as 19.1 billion in research and development, and it is expected to reach 24 billion in 2024. In innovative businesses such as automobiles, Xiaomi invested 6.7 billion yuan last year. In the words of Lei Jun, he used real money to express his attitude of seriously building cars.

Yes, only by building a car seriously can we get admission tickets. Lei Jun has a clear understanding of this.

Now that Xiaomi Automobile has officially entered the market, Xiaomi has formed a pattern of two-wheel development of the original Xiaomi basic disk and Xiaomi Automobile.

For Xiaomi, this is a brand-new stage of development, and it can even be said that it is an opportunity to recreate a millet.

More than a decade ago, Lei Jun stood on the cusp of smart phones and built a millet with a market value of 100 billion. In the new decade, Lei Jun has put all his accumulated achievements and reputation in life to catch up with the new energy vehicles.

This is Lei Jun’s last venture, and the imagination space is also on the scale of 100 billion.

There are opportunities as well as challenges, depending on whether Xiaomi SU7 can make the first shot.

The stolen car was stolen and sold repeatedly, which led to the "Zhengdian Gang" of the evil forces.

  Cctv news (Reporter Li Wenliang) Selling a car and then having it stolen, even a car was sold for three times. Recently, the police in Jinan, Shandong Province lasted for half a year, starting with a car theft case, and destroyed a 30-member criminal group headed by Wang.

  Wu Yanbing, deputy head of the Criminal Police Brigade of Lixia Branch of Jinan Public Security Bureau, said that during his 10 years in Jinan, the suspect Wang gradually evolved from an ordinary taxi driver into the chief criminal of a criminal group involved in black and evil. They formed a stable organizational system "Zhengdian Gang" by wooing fellow villagers, fighting, picking fights, extortion, theft and robbery, which greatly damaged the legitimate interests of the masses and had extremely bad social impact.

  Selling cars and stealing cars, another case, the fugitive suspect is now in the air.

  On January 22, 2018, Lixia police received a report from the victim Li Moumou that a black Magotan sedan mortgaged by a bank was previously purchased from Wang and others at a low price of 105,000 yuan, but the car could not be used normally due to incomplete procedures. Later, Li Moumou entrusted Wang and others to help sell the car, and the car was stolen during the sale.

  After receiving the case, the First Squadron of Lixia Interpol quickly launched an investigation. On July 2, 2018, the car appeared in Tianjin, and the police immediately rushed to Tianjin and found that the actual user of the vehicle was Mu Mouhui, who was a cousin of Wang, both of whom were from Zhengdian, Laoling, Shandong Province. The police comprehensively analyzed and judged that the suspicion that Wang and others sold cars first and then stole them rose rapidly.

  Subsequently, the police conducted an investigation around Wang and the people around him, and determined that the theft of the black Magotan car was the work of Zhang Mouzhi. Following this clue, it was found that Zhang Mouzhi was one of the fugitives who sought trouble with Wang and others in the police station area of Keyuan Road. On July 25, 2018, the police arrested Zhang Mouzhi.

  Uncover the curtain of criminal groups

  After in-depth investigation, the police found that this was not a simple car theft case, but a criminal gang involving more than 30 people headed by Wang, with Zhang Mowen, Zhang Mozhi, Zhang Mobin, Sun Moudong and Xia Mouyun as the backbone.

  Wu Yanbing introduced that Wang, the leader of the gang, drove a taxi from Zhengdian, Laoling, to Jinan in 2008. He operated well and earned a lot of money. Later, Zhengdian’s fellow villagers all came to him. Wang anchored more than 20 cars in a taxi company. The fellow villagers who defected first took driving taxis as their main business, and formed an influential "Zhengdian Gang" in the taxi industry in Jinan, with a stable organizational system.

  Through long-term covert development, the criminal gang gradually completed primitive accumulation of capital by operating hotels, business hotels and taxi companies as economic sources, and formed an enterprise management and business model. In the meantime, in the name of recruiting hotel waiters and taxi drivers, more than 30 members were developed.

  In the daily management, the members of the gang use WeChat group, QQ group and taxi radio as contact methods, and contact in real time. Once people are needed to commit illegal crimes, people will be gathered immediately, which will have a quick response, many members and great social harm.

  During his hotel management in Jinan, Wang bullied the city and competed viciously. In order to monopolize the regional market, he organized and implemented a large-scale affray. In April 2017, Wang, Zhang Mowen and Sun Moudong jointly invested to run a hotel in Heping Road, Lixia District. Because of the competition for tourists, they repeatedly had conflicts with the owner of an adjacent hotel. On May 11, 2017, there was a conflict between the two sides. Wang gathered more than 20 people at the entrance of the other hotel, and the two sides confronted each other, with more than 60 participants, and the social impact was extremely bad.

  In addition, on April 19, 2017, the criminal gang was in a hotel on Huanshan Road, which also disturbed public order and caused trouble because of competition.

  The gang "transformed" and falsely sold mortgage cars.

  In the early days, the gang mainly disturbed public order and made troubles. In the past year, it gradually developed into crimes such as robbery, extortion and theft. In order to achieve the purpose of illegally accumulating wealth and obtaining benefits, the gang committed crimes continuously and repeatedly.

  From September 2017 to January 2018, the criminal suspects Wang, Zhang Mouwen, Zhang Mobin, Xia Mouyun and others discussed together, and Wang invested to buy a bank-mortgaged vehicle. After buying the car, he assembled a locator and reserved a car key. After selling the car, he stole the vehicle back; Or, Xia Mouyun posted the information about selling mortgage cars on the Internet, and forged the relevant procedures of the car. When the buyer came to Jinan to trade, he defrauded the car purchase money and then gathered people to grab the car back.

  In the name of falsely selling the mortgage car, the gang snatched, stole and cheated the mortgage car back by means of theft, robbery and fraud after selling the car or during the transaction. The car was sold six times, and one of the Volkswagen Tiguan cars was repeatedly sold three times.

  At present, the criminal group headed by Wang has been smashed by the police. Since July 25, 2018, the police have arrested 28 illegal and criminal members of the group, including 21 people arrested and 7 people released on bail pending trial. It was initially verified that there were 9 criminal cases involving robbery, affray, theft, etc., and the property involved was worth more than 2 million yuan. What was waiting for them would be legal sanctions. (This article thanks Zhao Yang for providing the material)

English League Cup: Manchester United vs Newcastle United! If you don’t rotate, you will collapse? Newcastle are afraid to give up the cup

Let’s have our first chat today.United Cup: Manchester United vs Newcastle!

However, Manchester United has been very poor recently, and the Internet is full of posts about Teng Hager. Last season’s "Teng Sheng" and "Da Ming" have become "Teng Hi" and "Incompetence".

But Newcastle’s crisis may be even bigger. If Eddie Howe doesn’t handle it well, it may become the next Berlin League.

The Berlin United we talked about yesterday was overwhelmed by two-track operations, causing a lot of injuries, and then both strength and morale collapsed.

Newcastle haven’t collapsed yet, and it’s still the sixth place in the Premier League, but it may be soon.

Now they have a lot of injuries, Xiao wine made a simple picture, Isaac, Boatman and other six main or semi-main players will come back at the end of the month as soon as possible.

With so many injuries, what has caused a situation?

Last time they played Wolves, there was no striker on the bench.

There are 9 people on the bench, but they are almost all goalkeepers and defenders, with only two midfielders and none strikers.

Moreover, the two midfielders, Willock and Ritchie, are in poor condition. On the one hand, they are weak. On the other hand, they have only played 53 minutes in the Premier League this season, and they are very lacking in competition.

This is actually a terrible thing-A team that plays on two fronts in the Champions League and Premier League has no reliable strikers and midfielders on the bench.

So we can see that against Wolves, Newcastle only changed one person … There is really no one to change.

This is very dangerous.

You know, playing Dortmund on the 26th is a tough battle, and it costs a lot. And the number 29 wolvesIt rained heavily.,The physical consumption of rain fighting is greater.

Newcastle played two high-intensity games in these four days, and the starting lineup actually changed only one injured Isaac! Wolves have only changed one substitute to play!

You know, their starting lineupThe average age is 29.2 years.! Very old! Their game style is still fierce and easy to get hurt.

Today’s game against Manchester United is the third game in eight days. If Eddie Howe dares to fight again, if one or two people are injured again, I’m afraid it will become Berlin United.

Of course, even if they want to fight,I’m afraid these main players can’t fight any more.

In the last game against wolves, their performance was very poor.

Yes, I did get two, but how did these two get in?

The first one was that armand traore, the Wolves’ midfielder, knocked over his goalkeeper, selling half and giving one to Newcastle.

The second was to give Newcastle a controversial penalty.

Although Taylor gave the penalty the first time, from the VAR replay, Schell was suspected of diving, maybe not a penalty, but also to Newcastle Huang Ka.

On the contrary, wolves have more opportunities here, such asNeto has unlimited military training on the side, Bourne.

Bowen is not weak, of course, but you should know that as the tallest giant defender in the Premier League, the full-back who played this season is very physically exhausted. The third consecutive game is still a rainy battle. How can he get the physical strength to defend Neto?

If Neto hadn’t been injured by accident, I’m afraid Wolves would have entered.

On the other side, Trippier is also terrible-only two of the 11 confrontations were successful, with a success rate of 18.2%.

Trippier, a first-class defender, was beaten so badly, mainly because he was too tired. After all, a 33-year-old man played the whole game twice in four days, which one can hold up?

If Newcastle can’t stand the wolves’ strong flank, then why play Manchester United today?

Manchester United and Rachford, these wingers, are better than Neto Huang Xican, right?

The pressure on Manchester United is too great, and it has been sprayed all the time. The last Manchester derby made people hang easily, and it was even worse.

Tenghage is different from Eddie Howe.

Eddie Howe can bring Newcastle to this height, and there is no need to worry about prestige, class crisis and so on.

But Tenghage should consider these. If he loses again, can he still convince the public? Will class be over? These are really hard to say.

Therefore, Newcastle can not fight, just stay and play the League and the precious Champions League. Even if you want to play the domestic cup, there will be a more important FA Cup. What is the British Cup? Tottenham Hotspur, which fights on a single line, rotates greatly.

But Manchester United really have no retreat. For them, victory will be more important than rotation.

Therefore, although the recent situation is worse for Manchester United, Manchester United really needs a victory.

On the Newcastle side, what Eddie Howe needs most is the health of the players. As for the British League Cup, the priority may not be too high.

Although the strength of the two sides is close, the gap in fighting spirit may be huge, and in the chicken rib cup, fighting spirit may be more important than strength, for example, Wolfsburg played Leipzig yesterday.

All things considered, can Manchester United satisfy the fans? What do you think? The cocktail party will look forward to their victory.

Well, in other competitions today, Xiaojiu will still send you text analysis in the evening. If you have anything unclear, you can ask me, "Look at the ball and see clearly", and we will be there or not!

If you like it, move your fingers and pay attention to it!

Exposure to mineral water can cause cancer? Worry too much

  Beijing has started the high-temperature roasting mode, followed by a series of rumors about "heat" — — Sunscreen clothes are not sunscreen after washing, heat stroke is a large heatstroke, and drinking mineral water that has been exposed to the sun in the car will cause cancer, etc., which are concentrated in the latest scientific rumor list.

  The monthly "scientific" gossip list is guided by Beijing Science and Technology Association, Beijing Municipal Committee Network Information Office, Capital Internet Association, and jointly released by Beijing Science and Technology Journalists Editors Association and Beijing regional website joint rumor platform.

  Rumor has it that heatstroke is heatstroke

  truth Some people think that heatstroke is heatstroke, not serious. In fact, it is not exactly the same as heatstroke, and it should not be taken lightly. Generally, the body temperature of heatstroke patients often exceeds 38℃, accompanied by facial flushing, profuse sweating, burning skin, nausea and vomiting, or cold limbs, pale face, decreased blood pressure, rapid pulse and other symptoms.

  Heat stroke is the most serious emergency related to high temperature, that is, "severe heatstroke", which is a serious and fatal disease with skin burning, consciousness disorder (such as delirium, convulsion, coma) and multiple organ dysfunction. Once it happens, the death rate will be high.

  Heat stroke does not happen suddenly. Before heatstroke develops into heat stroke, it will first experience "threatened heat stroke" and "mild heat stroke". To prevent heat stroke, we must first avoid heat stroke. Try to avoid staying in high temperature (high humidity) and unventilated environment, and avoid high temperature when traveling and do a good job of sun protection. In addition, some heatstroke prevention drugs can be prepared appropriately. When you have to do homework or activities outdoors, you should pay attention to your physical condition, drink plenty of water and rest in time. If you travel by car, don’t leave children and pets in the car. Pay attention to avoid dehydration and ensure adequate sleep.

  Rumor has it that the sunscreen will be invalid once it is cleaned.

  truth Is it true that sunscreen clothes can’t be washed with water? Excessive cleaning of sunscreen clothing will indeed lead to a decline in the anti-ultraviolet performance of clothing, but normal cleaning is no problem. Sunscreen clothing can enhance the anti-ultraviolet effect of clothes by adding ultraviolet absorbent and anti-ultraviolet agent to the cloth or adding sunscreen coating on the surface of the fabric, just like coating a lot of sunscreen on the surface of clothes.

  Professional sun protection clothes usually indicate the sun protection index on the tag, which is the result of the standard inspection of national professional institutions. Only when UPF is greater than 40 and T (UVA) is less than 5%, can they be called "anti-UV products" and "sun protection clothes".

  Under normal circumstances, the sunscreen effect will not be significantly reduced when the cleaning times of sunscreen clothing are less than 30 times. After more than 30 times, it depends on the water resistance of anti-ultraviolet agents and the processing level of sunscreen clothing. There are two main processes for adding ultraviolet shielding agent to clothes: one is to add it to spinning raw materials, and the other is to soak or coat the fabric. Generally speaking, the ultraviolet shielding agent added during spinning can be better combined with raw materials, and the ultraviolet resistance is still considerable after repeated washing; However, the ultraviolet shielding agent attached to the fabric after weaving is easier to be peeled off when washing.

  The service life of sun protection clothing is usually several months to one year, and the sun protection ingredients may be damaged to varying degrees, and the sun protection effect is definitely worse than when it was just bought. Replacing a new sunscreen suit every year can ensure a good sunscreen effect.

  Gossip exposed mineral water can cause cancer.

  truth Qualified mineral water bottles in the market are usually made of food-grade plastics, namely polyethylene terephthalate (PET). PET is not only acid-resistant, alkali-resistant and grease-resistant, but also can withstand the corrosion of most solvents. At the temperature below 120℃, PET is non-toxic and tasteless, and it is safe to pack drinks. However, at high temperature, it will slowly dissolve and release some organic solvents harmful to human health.

  The temperature in the car, even in summer, is generally difficult to reach 120℃, so there is no scientific basis for the statement that "mineral water exposed in the car can cause cancer".

  Gossip astronauts can’t be nearsighted

  truth People have been circulating this statement — — Astronauts can’t be nearsighted, let alone wear glasses, because wearing glasses in space may bring accidental injuries. Indeed, the selection criteria for astronauts are indeed very high. However, at present, low myopia is also allowed to enter space.

  In the ascending phase of the mission, there are complicated situations such as rocket vibration and overload. If astronauts wear frame glasses, it may lead to collision and other problems, so astronauts will not wear frame glasses (wearable contact lenses) at this stage. The environment of the space station is relatively stable, and you can wear frame glasses normally.

  Over the years, aerospace engineering technology has made great progress, and the mission environment is no longer strict with astronauts’ physical fitness requirements; On the other hand, in the future, we need more front-line researchers to "go to heaven" for scientific research. Obviously, it is not appropriate to use myopia as a hard standard to select researchers, so low myopia is now allowed to enter space. It is worth mentioning that people with high myopia are still unable to travel in space. After all, people with high myopia may fall off their retinas when riding a roller coaster, and it is even more impossible to bear the huge acceleration when the rocket is launched.

  Yang Liwei, deputy chief designer of China’s manned spaceflight project, once said that the selection criteria for astronauts are different with different tasks. "From the perspective of vision, high myopia is not good, and low myopia is ok. Several of our non-professional load expert astronauts wear glasses. "

  Gossip moles should be removed or they will become cancerous.

  truth Does the mole on our body really have a chance to develop into melanoma, a deadly malignant tumor, if it is not removed? In fact, nevus is a benign tumor of the skin. Most nevus are formed in response to sun exposure, and it is extremely unlikely that they will develop into melanoma.

  It is also possible to remove these moles for aesthetic reasons, or to observe them regularly (monthly) for life, and pay attention to their color changes and texture changes (such as increased thickness). Some moles may develop into melanoma more easily and need to be paid attention to, including: congenital giant moles, dysplasia moles, multiple moles (more than 50), moles at the ends of limbs, moles or pigmentation in digestive tract and genitourinary tract, moles exposed to sunlight for a long time, etc. If the mole is suspected to be bad, it must be completely removed under the guidance of an experienced doctor and sent to biopsy for pathological diagnosis.

  Myth "conjoined" cherries blame pesticides

  truth In life, cherries we buy sometimes appear "twins" phenomenon, that is, there are two fruits on a fruit stalk. But this has nothing to do with medication. The incidence of abnormal fruit of cherries is closely related to the high temperature weather last year, not caused by pesticides.

  From the botanical point of view, the abnormal fruit is caused by the appearance of multiple pistils during the flower bud differentiation of cherries. Studies have shown that if cherries encounter high temperature above 30℃ during flower bud differentiation (especially during sepals and petals differentiation), the incidence of deformed fruits will greatly increase in the second year without human intervention, and the proportion of conjoined double fruits will be higher with the increase of temperature. However, during this period (mid-July), the temperature in warm areas in China often exceeds 30℃, which easily leads to the formation of double pistils or even multiple pistils.

  Gossip dry eye drops work

  truth It is circulated on the Internet that "dry eye is ‘ Lack of water in eyes ’ As long as more drops of eye drops can be effectively relieved. This kind of practice is wrong, and it is likely to be counterproductive.

  Dry eye, also known as dry eye, refers to a series of diseases caused by various factors, such as abnormal quality and quantity of tears or abnormal dynamics, which leads to the decline of tear film stability, accompanied by eye discomfort or ocular surface tissue lesions.

  On the surface of our eyeball, there is a thin layer of liquid, that is, the "tear film". It consists of oil layer, tear layer and mucin layer. Although it is only a few microns thick, it is like the "lubricating oil" of eyes, which can keep the cornea and conjunctiva moist and improve the refractive performance of eyes.

  When dry eye is not too serious, patients just need to take a rest and drop some artificial tears, and it seems that they can see things clearly again, so it is easy to take it lightly. In fact, dry eye is a manifestation of the disorder of tear film secretion, not just "water shortage". Although it sounds strange, a considerable number of patients are easy to stimulate the lacrimal gland and produce a lot of tears because the balance of the tear film is destroyed. However, the extra tears that flow out cannot effectively exist on the surface of the eye to moisten the cornea in the form of tear film.

  External means can only help it gradually recover its physiological function, so we must pay attention to it at an early stage, get rid of bad habits in time, and don’t use eye drops indiscriminately to avoid getting worse. If there are symptoms of dry eyes, such as dry eyes, dry eyes and difficulty in opening eyes, please go to the ophthalmology department of a regular hospital immediately to determine the type of dry eyes and treat them symptomatically.

  Rumor has it that the green peel is not ripe litchi.

  truth This is a misunderstanding of fresh litchi. Litchi with green skin in the market is not picked before it is ripe. There are more than 300 kinds of lychees, many of which are not full of bright red. For example, the characteristic of "princess smile" is that the skin is green and red.

  The characteristic of hanging green litchi is that the peel is red and purple, and there is a green line running straight through it, so it is named "hanging green". Good quality "Guanyin Green" litchi, even the peel is green when it is mature. It is best for consumers to determine whether the peel color is normal according to the variety of litchi. The fresh litchi peel is cracked, flat and regular, and feels tight and elastic; There are also some lychees with blue color, which may belong to insufficient light or undercooked, so it is best not to eat them.

  Rumors are better absorbed by eating fruit before meals.

  truth In fact, eating fruits before or after meals will not affect the digestion and absorption of both nutrients.

  The main component of fruit is water, followed by a small amount of carbohydrates, protein, fat and a small amount of water-soluble vitamins and minerals. There is no direct correlation between the digestion and absorption of these nutrients and eating dinner. Therefore, you can choose the order of eating fruits according to your personal situation and habits. It should be noted that you should not be greedy or eat more than one kind of food in your diet, let alone overeat.

The Olympic menu no longer has ridiculous English translations.


Husband and wife lung film (data picture)


  Starting from June 12th, all three-star hotels in the eighth district of Beijing can get the English Translation of Chinese Menu from the Catering Management Office of the Tourism Bureau, and more than 2,300 Chinese dishes finally have their own fixed names. From now on, foreigners coming to Beijing will no longer be "on tenterhooks" about ordering Chinese food. However, the English translation of these Chinese dishes has gone through a difficult process from ridiculous to standardization and regularization. The English translation of Chinese food used to be ridiculous.


  Chen Lin, a professor at Beijing Foreign Studies University, is a core member of the translation team of "Olympic Menu", and he participated in the translation of "Olympic Menu" all the time. When he and his colleagues saw the ironic English translations of many Chinese dishes, they felt a heavy sense of mission while laughing.


  "The standardization of English translation of Chinese food began in 2006." Chen Lin said, "At that time, the Beijing Foreign Affairs Office and Tourism Bureau organized some old professors and started this work in cooperation with the translation room of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We collected more than 6,000 kinds of China dishes, then reduced them to more than 2,600 kinds, and finally determined more than 2,300 kinds for translation. " Experts who have been engaged in foreign language teaching and research for many years, such as Chen Lin, couldn’t help laughing after seeing the original English translations of these Chinese dishes.


  For example, "Mapo Tofu" is translated into "bean curd made by a pock-marked woman" (tofu made by a woman with freckles); "Husband and wife's lungslice" is translated into "hubband and wife’s lung slice"; "Broiler" is translated into "Chicken without sexual life" (chicken without sexual life), and these English translations are reported by the media as news.


  "There are many others. For example,’ Braised lion’s head’ is literally translated. Like’ husband and wife lung slices’, who dares to order such a dish from a foreigner who doesn’t know?" Chen Lin said with a smile, "To this end, we have formulated seven principles for the translation of dish names, including trying to keep the cultural color contained in the dish names, expressing the raw materials, tastes and practices of the dishes, trying to keep the commonly known names as agreed, trying to be concise and to the point, and then dealing with special situations." Now, the above Chinese dishes finally have an official name in English. MapoTofu is transliterated as Mapo Tofu, Broiler Chicken is literally translated as Steamed Spring Chicken, and Braised Pork Balls in SoySauce is translated as Braised Pork Balls according to raw materials and production methods. Similarly, "Husband and wife lung slices" is translated into "Beef and Ox Tripe in Chili Sauce" (beef and tripe in Chili sauce).


  Experts also argue in the process of translation.


  Since it is a translation, there is bound to be an argument. "This is normal." Chen Lin said, "For example, some people translate it into delicious pork meatballs, and some people translate it into sour and sweet meatballs. After discussion, we finally think that the later translation is more appropriate, so the English translation that appears on the menu is the pinyin of" Gollum Meat "in front and the taste" ‘Sweet and Sour Pork with Fat‘ "in the back. "Chen Lin said that all the people involved in the Chinese-English translation of this dish name are equal, and anyone’s opinion may be rejected. "For example, one translation of’ shredded pork with fish flavor’ is’ pork strips with fish flavor’, but some people suggest that’ fish flavor’ doesn’t seem to have a fixed taste, which makes sense. Although I agree with the above translation, I followed everyone’s meaning and finally translated this dish into’ pork strips with sweet and sour taste’."


  "The name of the dish can’t be too long. Our primary purpose is to let foreigners know the raw materials, tastes and practices. The China culture contained in the name of the dish can only be covered as much as possible. It is impossible to list long paragraphs on the menu to explain the origin of’ kung pao chicken’ or’ crossing the bridge rice noodles’. The spread of China culture and China food culture is indeed very important, but we hope that these will become the conversation materials at the dinner table. For example, through the introduction of tour guides, the mission of spreading food culture should be better. "


  Therefore, on the menu, all the dishes with the word Gong Bao are prefixed with "KungPao", and the most common translation is "practice+raw materials+taste", and special circumstances need special treatment. "For example,’ Buddha jumps over the wall’ can’t be translated directly, so you can only use Pinyin, and indicate the materials and practices, so that foreigners can understand it at a glance." Chen Lin said.


  The inexplicable translation of the name is more than the name of the dish.


  The translation of "Olympic Menu" has aroused great concern, not only in China media, but also in many foreign media. For example, the Washington Post published a full-page report on the Chinese-English translation of the "Olympic Menu" on the front page. They can’t help sighing that they won’t be puzzled by the strange names of dishes when they arrive in China. In fact, it is not just the English translation of Chinese food that puzzles foreigners.


  "Before translating the names of dishes, we have done many other translations, including signs and road signs in public places, and we have seen more jokes, such as’ Be careful of falling into the water’ being translated into’ falling into the water slowly’ and’ Don’t trample on the green land’ being translated into’ Greenland’, but this English word refers specifically to’ Greenland’." Chen Lin said.


  Chen Lin also used the words of foreign friends to emphasize the importance of standardizing the translation of dish names. Some foreign friends told Chen Lin that it is better not to change some existing translations. For them, these translations are very interesting. In this case, they can communicate with their friends. They even suggested that a related museum should be established.


  "When I was interviewed by foreign media, I said that there are historical reasons for this situation in China. Now, these efforts we have made for the Olympic Games are to provide convenience for them and also reflect the overall English level of our country, so it is very meaningful to do this work. " Chen Lin said.

Creator of "Fantastic Animals": How to Deal with the Magic World without Harry Potter

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’s main creation.


Special feature of 1905 film network There may be such a "Harry Potter fan" around each of us: they are obsessed with the mysterious wand and cool spell used by the protagonist, and have been longing for a magical broom or a snow-white owl pet that flies into the sky, and even look forward to receiving the admission notice of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry year after year … … After the endings of seven original Harry Potter novels and eight adapted movies, many fans cherish that wonderful memory with reluctance and look forward to meeting the wizarding world again as soon as possible.

 

Finally, five years after bidding farewell to the Harry Potter series, a new magician was born in J·K· Rowling’s works, the magical zoologist Newt Scarmand. Although he also graduated from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Newt’s legendary experience actually happened in another historical time and space far away from Harry Potter. And this movie, named Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, will also become the door for the audience and the vast number of "fans" to enter a brand-new magical world.

 

In addition to director david yates, the other four masters of this film — — "Little Freckles" Eddie Redmayne, katherine waterston, dan fogler and alison sudol are all newcomers to the wizarding world. Can they Hold this parallel magical world without the "legendary" Harry Potter? 1905 Movie Network chatted with these new magicians, Muggles and david yates, the helm behind the scenes, during the promotional tour of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them in China.

 

"Little Freckle" Eddie Redmayne & katherine waterston

"Little Freckle" Eddie Redmayne & katherine waterston

"As a fan of Harry Potter, acting in Fantastic Animals makes me very stressed."

 

A long time ago, Eddie Redmayne, a newcomer, had hoped to get a role as the Weasley son in Harry Potter through an audition. Although he was not selected in those years, he is now lucky to be the next focus of the wizarding world. Newt, the protagonist of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, is a magical zoologist who is a bit rash. Eddie admits that he is not very similar to this character: "I am a man with a heavy heart, and Newt’s famous saying is’ Worrying is equal to suffering twice’, and now this sentence has become my motto."

 

Although many years have passed, there are still many people who like Harry Potter. As a work to restart the wizarding world in J·K· Rowling, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them bears many people’s expectations. As the hero of this series, Eddie naturally took on a lot of pressure. However, he said that the differences between Newt and Harry Potter are the attraction of this role, and he hoped that all the unexpected details in the story would eventually become surprises for the audience.

 

1905 Movie Network: As a Muggle, did you experience anything beyond imagination during the filming of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them? Will it be difficult to play a wizard?

 

Katherine waterston: That’s right. If we were magicians, everything would be easy to shoot.

 

Eddie Redmayne: If you can do magic, your whole life will be easy, okay? (Laughter) Shooting "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" really requires us to use a lot of imagination, but fortunately, the director david yates gave us a lot of help. He and the crew provided many auxiliary tools for the actors, which saved us from worrying too much about imagination. For example, there are many magical creatures in our movies that need CGI post-production, and when shooting, David will find a big dog or a small dog to cooperate with us to complete these scenes.

1905 Movie Network: What is your favorite magic or spell in the movie?

 

Katherine waterston: What I like is actually a very simple magic, that is, my sister Queenie and I prepare dinner for the boys at home. The scene on the day of shooting was actually very magical. We put on aprons hanging in the air in front of the stove, the dining table was decorated by ourselves, and everything really moved in the room. It felt like magic really came. What Alison (the actor who plays Queenie) has done is also very interesting. We can light candles without hands, open the tin foil of the package and taste the food made by "magic" together, which impressed me deeply. I like the teleport spell very much, too. The two of us just like dancing in a country dance, holding hands and disappearing together.

 

1905 Movie Network: Why do you think you were chosen to play this role? Are there any similarities between you?

 

Eddie Redmayne: What every movie wants to convey should have some resonance with your inner thoughts, but many times the characters are not necessarily similar to yours. For example, when I played the wizard Newt, I found that I was actually a person with a heavy heart and often worried, and Newt famously said in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them that "worrying too much is equal to suffering twice". Now this sentence has become my motto, and Newt’s lines have guided my life direction. So it seems that Newt and I are actually quite different.

 

1905 Movie Network: Many fans all over the world still love the story of Harry Potter. As the protagonist of the new magical world, are you worried that people will compare your role with Harry Potter?

 

Eddie Redmayne: Most people in the cast of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" should also be fans of the Harry Potter series, so in fact, we are also under great pressure, because as fans, you certainly don’t want to influence or destroy a classic. I think that’s what makes J.K· Rowling great. In Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, she created a magical world that can evoke many past memories, but she also created a completely different new timeline. My character is very different from Harry Potter. Harry Potter is a magical boy chosen by fate and becomes an extraordinary wizard in the story. Newt, however, is just a magician who is very enthusiastic and loves magical animals, which is very different. This is also an important reason why Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and the role attract me, because he is a character who is very unexpected to the audience.

1905 Movie Network: Do you have any expectations for the next sequel to Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them?

 

Eddie Redmayne: We have many ideas and even dreams about the sequel! The director and screenwriter have revealed some small details to us, but … … (Can’t spoil the face)

Katherine waterston: Yes, but we haven’t read the script yet, so we don’t know exactly what happened … …

 

1905 Movie Network: So will there be more big magic battles and action scenes?

 

Two people: there will definitely be! We are also looking forward to the upcoming story.

 

1905 Movie Network: Before Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Eddie was more involved in realistic biographies. Which kind do you like better than the two themes? Which is more difficult to play, the aerial role or the real person?

 

Eddie Redmayne: At first, I thought that this role, because it is fictional in science fiction, may require me to use a lot of imagination to enrich it. In fact, J.K. Rowling described Newt in great detail, which made me feel like I was playing a character in a biopic. In the process of communication with her, she can tell me many little things in Newt’s life in great detail, so I didn’t continue to explore too much in the end, as long as I performed as she outlined. So at present, it seems to me that these characters actually feel quite similar when performing.
