　　　 1905 movie network feature 　Who would have thought that the Golden Goblet Award for Best Actor at this year’s Shanghai International Film Festival would be awarded to Deng Chao, Duan Yihong, and Guo Tao all at once. As the saying goes, three women have one play, and these three men did sing a good show in "Burning Sun", but Deng Chao and Duan Yihong have more roles, and various "love" scenes between the two have made the media who have seen the film think that this should be a double male play. Of course, Guo Tao’s acting skills are also very good. Let’s reveal the relationship between the three in the film for netizens.

Deng Chao VS Duan Yihong: The gangsters and the police compete for wits and courage, and the first is to sell corruption without limit

　

　　　 Deng Chao played a young man in a small town who raped a girl when he was young, causing the other party to suffer a sudden death from a heart attack, and then embarked on the road of escape. Seven years later, he and his two brothers changed their faces, and Deng Chao became an assistant police officer, who was very serious and responsible. Duan Yihong was the newly appointed sheriff, and he was very optimistic about Deng Chao at first, and the two soon became good partners at work. However, as various clues continued to emerge, Duan Yihong began to suspect that the massacre of the year was related to Deng Chao, so a game of cat and mouse began.

　

　　　 In order to hide his fingerprints, Deng Chao used his habit of twisting cigarette butts with his hands, so Duan Yihong took his fingerprints with soot. Duan Yihong had an important clue that the criminal had raped the victim. In order to dispel Duan Yihong’s doubts, Deng Chao did not hesitate to betray his appearance, had a relationship with the gay designer played by Lv Songxian, and specially attracted Duan Yihong to come. When Duan Yihong saw the naked scene, the expression in his eyes was definitely distressed rather than shocked in the eyes of the media watching the film.

　

　　　 Although it is an opposing relationship, even if the final mystery is solved, Duan Yihong and Deng Chao have always been in a state of mutual admiration and mutual concern in the film, especially the scene where Duan Yihong went to visit him in prison after Deng Chao was arrested. Deng Chao, who was handcuffed and shackled, was very embarrassed. Duan Yihong kindly lit a cigarette for him, and his eyes were full of pity. At the press conference, Duan Yihong said that maybe he really fell in love with Deng Chao in that scene, and he cried because he was too deep into the play.

　"The Burning Sun" Guo Tao stills

Deng Chao VS Guo Tao: After many years of brothers accidentally making mistakes, they changed their face and wanted to atone for their sins and were finally arrested

　

　　　 In the play, Deng Chao, Guo Tao, and Gao Hu were brothers who grew up together. Guo Tao was the eldest and Deng Chao was the youngest, and the rape case was committed by Deng Chao, but all three were related to the killing incident, so they hid together. However, after the incident, Gao Hu was accidentally stabbed blind in his right eye, and since then, he has shown himself in a silly state, and there are not many scenes. Among the three brothers, Deng Chao and Guo Tao have more opponents.

　

　　　 Seven years after the crime, Guo Tao opened a rental, but he didn’t dare to call the police even if he was robbed and stabbed. He chased thieves and was slashed and didn’t go to the hospital. He did a lot of good deeds but never kept his name. First, he was afraid of being found out about the crime of the year, and second, he was also trying to atone for his crime. He rented a house with Deng Chao, who was an assistant police officer, and visited Gao Hu, a fisherman, from time to time. The relationship between the three brothers never weakened.

　

　　　 Compared to the infinite relationship between Deng Chao and Duan Yihong, Guo Tao and Deng Chao really only showed a small-scale relationship, supporting each other for all these years, and evading Duan Yihong’s investigation together. The bigger highlight of Guo Tao is actually the emotional drama between Wang Luodan. Although the love between this young and beautiful girl and the middle-aged diaosi uncle is not so comfortable to watch, Wang Luodan’s upper body is naked as a mirror. The courage is still very commendable.

　

　

　　China News Service, Beijing, December 12 (reporter, Zhang Xi) For a moment, Yang Zi thought she was still filming "Family with Children", looking at Song Dandan, Gao Yalin, Zhang Yishan, and You Haoran around her, as if she had returned to the set 12 years ago, without any unfamiliarity.

　　In fact, it was the first time the five had worked together in 12 years on the micro-film "17 Brings Home Music." In the film, the "eldest son" Zhang Yishan became a police detective; the "daughter" Yang Zi became a female white-collar worker; and the "younger brother" You Haoran went to college. It was a very happy ending for fans of "Family with Children."

　　Recently, Yang Zi was interviewed by a reporter from China News Service (WeChat official account: cns2012). As a member of China’s most talked-about "screen family", she revealed for the first time some interesting past events during the filming of that year.

　　The past –

　　I used to fight on the set

　　In 2004, "Family with Children" officially began filming. Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan were only 12 years old at the time, and You Haoran was only 8 years old. Neither of them expected that because of the popularity of the show, they would be closely connected with each other.

　　"In the past, when the three of us were together, You Haoran was the noisiest, then Zhang Yishan, and finally me." Yang Zi recalled happily that because her "Xiaoxue" was helping her parents watch her two younger brothers in the play, it was quite stable.

　　Yang Zixiao said that the three of them often quarreled over food, "For example, there are props for peaches or durians placed there, and when we are not filming, we all stare at it to see who fights for that peach first." She also revealed that the youngest, You Haoran, even released a "big trick", "He was very disgusting. He was afraid that we would take that peach, so he took it out and licked it all first, and then said that if I licked it, you would not be able to take it. At that time, I would be very angry and would quarrel because of this kind of thing, which was very funny."

　　Reunion.

　　It feels like I’m filming with my family

　　This reunion took a total of two days to shoot the micro-movie "17 Music to Bring Home". In Yang Zi’s opinion, it is not so much work as a family reunion.

　　"I remember that it was 12 am the next day. It stands to reason that I was very tired, but I felt very happy. It would be fine to shoot for a while.

　　Although it was the first time they had worked together after 12 years, Yang Zi felt that everyone’s tacit understanding was still there. "It’s like a family.

　　Twelve years ago, when filming "Family with Children," Yang Zi often laughed, and this time was no exception, but the feeling was different. "At that time, because the script was funny, now I have a feeling of filming with my family, and I can’t stand it when I look at each other, and I can’t control it."

　　Change.

　　You Haoran grew taller from a little brother

　　Reunited 12 years later, Yang Zi bluntly said that You Haoran had changed the most, "He was only 8 years old when he was a child, but now he has grown so big, much taller than me, and has a beard. In my impression, he will always be our little brother."

　　When it comes to everyone’s changes, Yang Zi sighs deeply, she was the quietest in the crew at the beginning, but now she is the most noisy. "I have been arguing with them at the scene, Zhang Yishan said’calm down ‘, You Haoran said’go to Zhang Yishan’s place to play’, why did it change like this? Haha."

　　However, during the filming of "17 Brings Home Music", Yang Zi also had a trance feeling, "At the end of the filming, everyone had a sentence, but I didn’t think they were reading the lines anymore. I wanted to cry so much that I endured it all the time, because I felt that when we grew up, I looked at Aunt Dandan and Uncle Yalin again. They are old and have white hair, so they feel very unacceptable."

　　Off-screen.

　　Song Dandan loves to send voice

　　Although they worked together again after 12 years, the five people had a very good relationship in private during the past 12 years, and they also established a WeChat group called "Family Who Love Each Other". The most active in the group was Song Dandan.

　　"Auntie Dandan loves to talk about voice, and when she talks about her specialties, you have to listen to it all the time, but we children usually like to type text." Yang Zi complained that once Song Dandan sent many 60-second voice messages in a row, and every time I didn’t finish listening, there was a call, "I wanted to smash my phone at that time, haha."

　　When it comes to the interesting things in the group, Yang Zi is also overjoyed. She confessed that she loves to send emojis, not only her own ugly photos, but also Zhang Yishan’s, "There is an emojis like this, all kinds of staring at you, with the words’I am not sleepy ‘written on it."

　　CP —

　　And Zhang Yishan maintain each other

　　From the day "Family with Children" aired, Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan were regarded as "screen CP".

　　This year, Zhang Yishan starred in "Remaining Sins", which was a hit. Although the outside world believes that he has changed from a boy to a pure man in Beijing, Yang Zi said: "Because we are very familiar and grew up with each other, he is a very atmospheric Beijing boy in my eyes."

　　Although many netizens hope that Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan can become a couple, in fact, the two are just good buddies. Although they always hurt each other, as long as Yang Zi encounters difficulties, Zhang Yishan will stand up for protection as soon as possible; if someone scolds Zhang Yishan, Yang Zi will also stand up.

　　"Sometimes I feel down. Zhang Yishan won’t ask what’s wrong like others. He will wait for things to pass slowly and send me a WeChat message saying that you are okay, are you okay. I think it is very warm, a kind of relationship between friends."

　　Yang Zi made no secret of her desire to work with Zhang Yishan again, "Everyone always says they want us to film together, and I don’t think we should be sorry for the audience to shoot a movie at random. If the movie is particularly bad, everyone will be disappointed. I hope there will be an opportunity, a good moment, a good script for us, and we may choose to shoot."

??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". After the statement was issued, Fan Bingbing quickly forwarded it, with an accompanying text: "There should be a forwarding here!"

??The netizens looked at the content of the article alone, and they didn’t know which rumor was refuted or included it together. They watched and commented and speculated: "Is it fake with Li Chen?", "But it’s really annoying to hype.", "@Li Chen, Daniel should be retweeting", "Really got into a fight with Wang Sicong…", "I made a statement, but I didn’t specify which one to sue? 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:

　　It is also the "Wangjing Small Waist", but the taste of the food produced in the store and the food ordered on the takeaway platform are very different, and there is actually a "mystery" behind it. A reporter from Beijing Youth Daily investigated and found that some stores registered on the takeaway platform under the name of "Wangjing Small Waist" and sold skewers. Some "clone shops" "curled up" in the corner of other stores, operated in the form of "shop-in-shop", and "shipped" through the takeaway platform. The hygiene conditions in the store are not optimistic.

　　In addition, a reporter from Beiqing Daily found that on some takeaway platforms, the name of the store can be filled in by yourself, which objectively creates an opportunity for "clone shops". The well-known old store "Wangjing Xiaoyao" responded that it has not opened a store on the takeaway platform and does not have a "franchise" relationship with takeaway merchants. A staff member said that because the trademark of "Wangjing Xiaoyao" was registered by others, it was difficult to protect its rights when encountering similar "clone shops".

　　phenomenon

　　There are many "Wangjing Small Waist" on the takeaway platform.

　　Customers complain about the taste

　　In summer, drinking and eating skewers has become the first choice for many people’s late-night supper, and takeaway platforms have provided more convenience. But the same "Wangjing Small Waist" has a polarized reputation on takeaway platforms and food recommendations. Many citizens said that "Wangjing Small Waist", which orders food through takeaway platforms, tastes "wrong".

　　"It’s completely different from what I ate before. The noodles are old, astringent, fishy, and hard…" Tang Xin (a pseudonym) couldn’t help but complain after tasting the tinfoil-wrapped "Wangjing Small Waist" takeaway barbecue, and gave a bad review. Tang Xin told the Beiqing Daily reporter that he had eaten the "Wangjing Small Waist" barbecue in Wangjing before, "the noodles are fresh, and the seasoning is moderate." The takeaway platform marked the barbecue of the branch, "The meat is not fresh, the things are either too salty, too fishy, or tasteless, and it doesn’t feel like something from a store."

　　There are not a few buyers who have the same questions as Tang Xin. On the takeaway platform, under a store labeled "Wangjing Small Waist (New Food Street) ", some buyers bluntly said that "I didn’t pay attention to the wrong store, no wonder it looks and tastes different from before"; in another store review of "Wangjing Small Waist (Dongdan Store) ", some buyers suspected that the goods were not fresh, resulting in "crazy diarrhea in the middle of the night"; and in the comment area of "Wangjing Small Waist (Tuanjiehu) " store, many buyers commented that "there is a bad smell" and asked "Is this really Wangjing Small Waist?"

　　For a time, some "Wangjing Small Waist" on the takeaway platform encountered word-of-mouth "Waterloo". This is different from the "Wangjing Small Waist" store that received four-star praise on the food recommendation.

　　visit

　　Multiple takeaways "Wangjing Small Waist"

　　The signboard does not match the actual name

　　A reporter from Beiqing Daily searched for "Wangjing Small Waist" on the Ele.me, Meituan takeaway and Baidu takeaway platforms and found that more than 15 stores used the name "Wangjing Small Waist" (× × branch). Among them, many merchants also used pictures printed with the words "Wangjing Small Waist" on a black background and yellow frame as sign photos.

　　According to the addresses of several branches of "Wangjing Small Waist" left on the takeaway platform, the reporter of Beiqing Daily randomly visited. In front of the address of a "branch" in Jintaili, Chaoyang District, the reporter of Beiqing Daily noticed that the name of the store’s sign is so-and-so skewers, and "Wangjing Small Waist" is juxtaposed with "Seafood Fried", which is located below the name of the sign, with smaller words. When the reporter of Beiqing Daily asked the owner "whether it is an authentic’Wangjing Small Waist ‘barbecue restaurant," the owner responded that he had set up a barbecue stall in Wangjing many years ago and later moved here. "At first, our family had small skewers of kidneys," but the question of whether it was authentic was avoided. The Beiqing Daily reporter noticed that on the paper menu of this store, the name of a certain string bar was displayed, and "Wangjing Small Waist" was only one of the specialties.

　　Later, a reporter from Beiqing Daily visited the "Wangjing Small Waist" of Tuanjiehu Store. He observed that the paper menu issued by the barbecue restaurant to diners read "Love Barbecue" instead of "Wangjing Small Waist". What’s more strange is that the physical menu of this barbecue restaurant does not have a dish named "Wangjing Small Waist", while the menu of the takeaway platform has "Wangjing Small Waist": a skewer costs 3 yuan, and the price of 5 skewers is 14.8 yuan after discount. But the owner of the barbecue restaurant has repeatedly stressed that his home is an authentic "Wangjing Small Waist". "We are a franchise store of Wangjing Small Waist Old Store, and the skewers and seasonings are all taken from Wangjing Main Store." As for the full name and specific location of the main store, the boss did not explain why the menu says "Love Barbecue".

　　detail

　　There is takeaway "Wangjing Small Waist".

　　Use Malatang Shop Business License

　　Visitors found that the store called "Wangjing Small Waist (× × Shop) " on the takeaway platform was actually "curled up" in a corner of a Malatang store, covering an area of about 5 square meters, with an inverted "L" shape. The door was in the Malatang store, with a window facing the road, and the sign "Wangjing Small Waist" hung above the window.

　　The Beijing Youth Daily reporter noticed that in the information of the "merchant" of the takeaway platform, this "Wangjing Xiaoyao" used the business license of Malatang Restaurant, and the photo of the door of the dine-in restaurant displayed was also different from the actual situation. The owner of Malatang Restaurant introduced that he and the barbecue restaurant are two stores. "We rented a place for them to cook barbecue, and they (who do barbecue) basically don’t open until 5:30 pm, and only deliver takeout."

　　At about 8 p.m. on June 16, a reporter from Beiqing Daily came to "Wangjing Xiaoyao (× × Shop) " again and saw several food delivery staff from the takeaway platform gathered outside the window, waiting to pick up the meal. In the barbecue shop, two young men, one shirtless, were holding multiple orders to prepare dishes, brush oil and sprinkle seasonings, and the other was grilling dishes on the barbecue grill with his back. After the food was baked, the shirtless man wrapped it in tinfoil, covered it with paper and plastic bags, and handed it to the delivery staff. The reporter from Beiqing Daily asked the boss if he could eat in the restaurant, and the boss replied that "yes", but he had to borrow the tables and chairs in the Malatang shop.

　　A reporter from Beiqing Daily observed that in this small store covering an area of about 5 square meters, there are freezers, microwave ovens, and multi-layer shelves with skewers of meat and vegetables. Oil stains, paper orders, disposable plastic bags, and empty bottles are all over the ground, and microwave ovens and barbecue grills are also covered with oil stains. In the back seat of an electric car outside the window, there is a raw meat skewer skewers skewed in plastic boxes, and flies are flying around the meat skewers.

　　doubt

　　The "clone" store of the takeaway platform

　　How to pass the review?

　　According to previous media reports, "Wangjing Xiaoyao (Old Store) ", which has received praise from many star diners and food websites, actually has a 20-year brand history and currently has four branches, the first store is located in Wangjing.

　　On the 18th, as a diner, a reporter from Beiqing Daily asked whether the merchant had opened multiple branches on the takeaway platform. The other party said that they had not opened a store on the takeaway platform, nor did they have a "franchise" relationship with the takeaway merchant. "We also received many calls from diners complaining that the takeaway and the tasting of the food were different, and we felt cheated. But in fact, the takeaway merchant used our name and store photos to mislead everyone. Considering the taste of the meat, we only have dine-in food now, not takeaway."

　　Regarding some takeaway merchants who cloned the name of "Wangjing Small Waist" and used the store’s signboard photos for publicity, the relevant person in charge said that they also "have no way". "[We] can only be regarded as an old store passed down by word of mouth now, because the trademark of" Wangjing Small Waist "has been registered by others, so we have no way to protect our rights."

　　The name of the takeaway store is inconsistent with the name of the physical store. The photos of dine-in food displayed on the platform are different from those of the brick and mortar store. How did these "clone" stores appear on the takeaway platform pass the review? Recently, a reporter from Beiqing Daily called several major takeaway platforms as a merchant. The customer service staff said that the business license and food business license information should be submitted on the website first. After passing the machine moderation, the regional sales manager will contact the merchant later.

　　Previously, a reporter from Beiqing Daily submitted relevant information on a takeaway platform and successfully registered the store. He found that the content of "store name" can be filled in at will. In addition, a reporter from Beiqing Daily recently called a number of takeaway stores that cloned "Wangjing Small Waist". Many merchants recalled that registering a "Wangjing Small Waist" branch on the takeaway platform "does not require any materials, just fill it in by yourself, and the platform and manager will not specifically ask you to (provide) proof." However, a customer service staff said that the sales manager will be arranged to "check the store" later to check the submitted license, and whether the brick and mortar store and the dine-in photos on the takeaway platform are consistent.

Narrow broadcast　Zhang Wei

Since January, following the "bankruptcy storm" of Tianfu Cola, domestic sodas such as Arctic Ocean and Hongbaolai have also received an unexpected wave of attention.

Just like Tianfu Cola was on the verge of discontinuing production, the domestic soda in people’s minds was struggling to survive in the gap between the Coca-Cola and Pepsi markets. After all, after years of silence, after the return of domestic soda, the domestic beverage market has long been "changed", and it is too difficult to compete for a place.

But is that really the case?

Taking Meituan data as an example, Laoshan Coke, Hongbaolai, Tianfu Coke and other domestic beverages, Meituan sales in the first half of 2022 increased by more than 150% compared with the same period last year; another media report, the sales of Dayao soda in 2021 are estimated to reach about 3 billion; Arctic Ocean has achieved 13 million revenue in just 3 years, becoming one of the favorite sodas of local consumers in Beijing…

Aside from regional cognitive biases, domestic soda is far better than people imagine.

After the epidemic, local retail has become the first choice for consumers to shop fast. With more and more consumers choosing to spend nearby, the local retail industry has also developed new formats such as instant retail, and local consumption has further accumulated the power of recovery.

Therefore, relying on the advantages of the birthplace, based on local roots, focusing on serving local consumers, and relying on instant retail formats such as Meituan, online traffic is converted into offline actual purchasing power, forming a geographical advantage and becoming a new driving force for the development of domestic soda.

In the 1980s, when the sales of domestic sodas were hot, there was a grand occasion of "one place and one soda water". When Tianfu Coke and other domestic sodas rose, the regional market was divided again, presenting a "hundred flowers bloom" situation, and the domestic soda market will no longer have only two pleasures.

"Ups and downs in life"

"Tianfu Coke has stopped production?" "Can’t drink Tianfu Coke anymore?" In January this year, Tianfu Coke was on the hot search due to the bankruptcy storm. After that, Tianfu Coke officially refuted the rumor, and Chairperson Jiang Lin also publicly responded: "It is the old enterprise that went bankrupt, and Tianfu Coke is still in normal production and operation."

After several "confrontations", Tianfu Cola has been "a blessing in disguise", and its attention has continued to rise, driving consumers’ "buying enthusiasm". Taking Meituan data as an example, Tianfu Cola’s instant retail weekly orders increased by 172% year-on-year, achieving a reversal in sales of carbonated beverages in the off-season. Many consumers outside Sichuan and Chongqing have gradually come to know this time-honored domestic soda with a light herbal flavor.

A piece of history must be mentioned here. Since the 1980s, a number of domestic sodas such as Tianfu Cola have experienced the "ups and downs of life" from glory to loneliness.

Under the influence of many factors such as limited production capacity and high transportation costs, the domestic soda market was dominated by domestic brands in the 1980s. Domestic sodas such as Laoshan Cola, Arctic Ocean, and Asian soda have even become iconic symbols of the cities where they are located. Tianfu Cola was also at its peak during that period, and its share in the domestic cola market was as high as 75%.

With the entry of Coca-Cola and Pepsi, the domestic soda market has undergone tremendous changes.

In 1994, Tianfu Cola and Pepsi Cola jointly established Chongqing Pepsi Tianfu Company. Since then, Pepsi has gradually reduced the production of Tianfu Cola’s products, causing Tianfu Cola’s market share to decline and almost disappear from the market.

In the same year, Arctic Ocean finally went out of production after its joint venture with Pepsi. After Guangzhou Asia Soda, Shenyang Bawangsi, Tianjin Shanhaiguan, and Qingdao Laoshan were all acquired, domestic soda brands were collectively frozen, and Liangle eventually occupied most of the domestic market.

Until 2007, after a long negotiation, Arctic Ocean regained the trademark and use rights on the condition that it would not produce any carbonated beverages for four years. In 2009, Tianfu Cola also began to claim back the brand from Pepsi. Domestic soda brands gradually recovered, Arctic Ocean classic glass bottles of orange-flavored soda reappeared on the market, Tianfu Cola officially made a comeback, and other domestic sodas also returned one after another.

The source of the "bankruptcy storm" of Tianfu Cola this time is the mixed ownership reform initiated after Tianfu Cola’s comeback. In 2018, Chongqing Textile Group, the wholly-owned parent company of Tianfu Cola Group, implemented the mixed system reform and passed on the brand, formula and operation to the new Tianfu Cola (Chongqing) Beverage Co., Ltd.

Therefore, the announcement issued by the Fifth Intermediate People’s Court of Chongqing this time is the bankruptcy liquidation announcement of the old company, which will not affect the normal operation and production of Tianfu Cola. Tianfu Cola officials can also respond positively, "Everyone can still drink Tianfu Cola with confidence, we are always there."

Local "reboot"

For a long time, consumers outside Sichuan and Chongqing have a weak awareness of Tianfu Cola. The hot news of the bankruptcy is ultimately due to people’s concerns about the development status of time-honored brands. Consumers generally recognize that the old domestic beverages are struggling to survive in the new consumption environment.

What is the current situation of the development of domestic soda?

In July last year, Meituan released a set of data, with Hongbaolai, Tianfu Cola, Arctic Ocean, Bingfeng and other major Guochao beverages, sales in the first half of 2022 increased by more than 150% compared with the same period last year; Inner Mongolia’s domestic beverage kiln soda sales in 2021 were estimated to reach 3 billion yuan; Bingfeng opened the road of IPO, although it has since withdrawn the application materials, but also outstanding performance in the domestic soda market. According to the prospectus, Bingfeng’s four main products sold a total of 292 million bottles/cans in 2020.

During the World Cup in Qatar, Arctic Ocean’s advertising landed on CCTV’s core channel. Today, whether it is in Beijing’s large and small restaurants, supermarket convenience stores, or retail platforms such as Meituan, Arctic Ocean is one of the favorite carbonated drinks of local consumers in Beijing, and even achieved 13 million revenue in just three years.

We know that, limited by the production, supply chain and other practical problems, domestic soda prices compared to the two music has no advantage, in such a competition landscape, how to maintain a good momentum of development?

First of all, from a historical perspective, domestic soda has accumulated many years of product reputation and national tide feelings in the local area. It is a childhood memory that belongs to a generation, and even a city’s memory, with natural advantages for local development. The media once reported the lively scene of Tianfu Coke’s comeback in 2016: consumers in Chongqing ran four streets just to buy a bottle of Tianfu Coke at a convenience store.

In terms of consumption habits, domestic sodas from various places are more in line with the dietary preferences of local consumers. For example, Tianfu Cola’s main herbal sugar-free flavor, with Chongqing hot pot with heavy spicy and heavy oil, is more cool and greasy; Hongbaolai’s most distinctive lychee soda, the origin is that the people of Northeast China have a lychee dream, and the development of lychee soda has met the taste needs of local consumers to the greatest extent.

All of the above, domestic soda has found a development direction from the road of taking root in the local area. Especially after the epidemic, local retail has become the first choice for consumers to shop quickly. More and more consumers choose to spend nearby. The local retail industry has also developed new formats such as instant retail. From the certainty that takeaway goods will arrive in half an hour, local consumption has further accumulated the strength of recovery.

Yuan Wei, marketing director of Tianfu Cola, has been paying attention to the development of Tianfu Cola’s new retail channels. He mentioned that with the changing consumption habits of young people, buy-and-reach can better meet the purchasing habits of local consumers. "The launch of Meituan in local convenience stores can promote the exposure of Tianfu Cola in young people, and at the same time increase the sales rate of Tianfu Cola’s products in Sichuan and Chongqing."

Being rooted in the local area has brought about a considerable increase in sales. Even without the surge in sales caused by this bankruptcy, as early as July last year, media reports mentioned that Tianfu Coke’s sales in Meituan market, Meituan flash sale and other instant retail platforms have increased by more than 5 times.

"Waiting for an Opportunity" Extension

Even if the development momentum is good, why are consumers generally worried about the status quo of domestic soda?

The main reason for this is that geographical advantages also bring geographical restrictions. Industry experts have mentioned in the analysis of domestic soda that it is difficult for time-honored brands to win by relying on feelings. The geographical attributes hinder their long-term development, and the regional culture is obvious. It is difficult to develop a market suitable for local local culture in other places.

Consumers are also accustomed to comparing domestic soda and Liangle. In the current carbonated beverage market, Coca-Cola and Pepsi still firmly occupy the top position or even a duopoly. According to the data of the Prospective Industry Research Institute, as early as 2019, Coca-Cola’s market share was 59.5%, Pepsi was 32.7%, and the two giants had occupied more than 92% of the market share.

In the words of Jiang Lin, chairperson of Tianfu Cola, Tianfu Cola is "ants and elephants" compared to these two giants.

But this situation is gradually changing. According to public data, in 2020, China’s carbonated beverage production reached 18.453 million tons, an increase of 5.8% year-on-year, contrary to the previous situation of no growth for many years; in 2021, the output reached 19.713 million tons, an increase of 6.8% year-on-year.

From a practical perspective, it is indeed limited for domestic soda to become bigger and stronger, but as long as it firmly occupies the local dominant position, while serving more local consumers living in other places, it becomes a small and beautiful brand, and then gradually expands to the periphery, the development prospects are still promising.

Here, for example, the Northeast-made soda, Hongbaolai. For 30 years, Hongbaolai has never stopped producing traditional glass bottle soda. In the eyes of Wang Yang, the e-commerce manager of Hongbaolai, insisting on making glass bottle soda is Hongbaolai’s feelings, and it also comes from confidence in the taste of local consumers. "For example, our glass bottle lychee soda is Hongbaolai’s signature, and Northeasterners recognize this taste."

In 2021, Hongbaolai began to test the waters to expand the foreign market. It is still the traditional glass bottle soda, but with the help of new retail channels such as Meituan Preferred, the young people in Northeast China can find the taste of their hometown in the traditional lychee soda.

Hongbaolai has also achieved retail sales growth outside the three northeastern provinces. Since 2021, Hongbaolai soda has started from Jilin, from the black land of Northeast China to Shanxi and Hebei, and has also gone south to explore the central and southern China markets. According to Meituan data, in addition to the three northeastern provinces, Hongbaolai soda is also deeply loved by users in Nanjing, Beijing, Wuhu, Xuzhou, Nantong and other cities. Sales in the first half of 2022 have also increased by more than 100% year-on-year.

As food industry analyst Zhu Danpeng has previously analyzed, domestic soda has certain emotional advantages in the regional market, but they have missed the best opportunity for rapid expansion. "Now what they have to do is to do a good job in the local core market and wait for opportunities to expand."

　　The word "superstar" came from Zhou Xingchi’s mouth, with a very "nonsensical" style. At first, it was very funny, but when you think about it, it is deeply meaningful. These four words can be said to be a true portrayal of Zhou Xingchi’s career as an actor. The dragon set achieved Zhou Xingchi’s superstar status, making him change from "Zhou Xingxing" to "Xingye", while the superstar made Zhou Xingchi "because of invincibility, a little lonely".

　　When "Superstar" recalled "Dragon Set" Zhou Xingxing, he said: "I wait every day, but I don’t know what I’m waiting for. In fact, it should be waiting for an opportunity. Wait year after year, wait one second a day. Finally, when I was about to’die ‘, I finally had the opportunity, and I realized that it was not an opportunity, it was a complete misunderstanding, so I continued to wait."

　　So, in 1999’s "King of Comedy," Liu Piaopiao tells Yin Tianchou: "It’s so dark in front of you, you can’t see anything." Yin Tianchou says: "No, it will be beautiful after dawn." But at the end of the movie, Yin Tianchou still lost the opportunity to play the lead role and did not arrange a successful ending for him.

　　After 20 years, Zhou Xingchi, who had 20 years of life insights, was even more childlike and liked fairy tales, so he made "The King of New Comedy" again. In the film, the heroine, Rumeng, saw the dawn. In this imperfect world, Zhou Xingchi wanted to give the audience a perfect ending: "Because I think this can encourage everyone more directly, so that the audience can see that life will not be a walk-in forever. It can be said that 20 years ago, the audience did not see’dawn ‘with Yin Tianchou, but 20 years later, everyone can see it. After dawn, it is really beautiful."

　　The auction was completed in two months, but it took seven or eight years to think about it.

　　On November 29, 2018, Stephen Chow’s new work "The King of New Comedy" was officially announced to be released on February 5, the first day of the new year in 2019. Once the news was released, it quickly became a hot topic. In addition to the expectations of star fans, it also attracted a lot of controversy, such as "Why shoot" The King of New Comedy "after 20 years? Stephen Chow is frying cold rice, because Jiang Lang has exhausted his talents", and it is said that "the movie was shot in two weeks. Because the production of" Mermaid 2 "was overdue, in order to fill the gap, Stephen Chow temporarily started filming" The King of New Comedy ".

　　For all kinds of "nonsense" and suspicions, Zhou Xingchi is not in a hurry and is not annoyed. He replies one by one, and he says with a smile: "It seems that at my age, every new play will be said to be talented. I have fried Yangzhou fried rice, but I have never fried cold rice." Mermaid 2 "has a long post productin time, and it was originally planned to be released in 2020."

　　Zhou Xingchi revealed that seven or eight years ago, he was already considering making another story about the struggles of the little people: "I’ve been thinking about doing something else, and occasionally I think about it. It was three years ago when I felt like I was thinking about it, and I suddenly thought about it clearly, and I started to prepare little by little. In this era, how to re-show the story of the past, but have a different feeling, this is what I have been thinking about."

　　"The New King of Comedy" came out of nowhere because the film was based on the title of "Plan D". There were rumors before that Stephen Chow was going to make "The King of Comedy 2", but the news was later denied by many parties. Chow admitted that he did "keep a low profile" on purpose. "Because the final name of the movie has not been decided yet, and I don’t want to give everyone spoilers, I just changed the name. Then why am I called’Plan D ‘instead of ABC, because ABC has already been registered by others, so I had to choose D."

　　In Stephen Chow’s mind, it was not because’The New King of Comedy ‘was an IP sequel that the difficulty was reduced. Out of his devotion to movies, Stephen Chow would not allow himself to neglect the work. "I think I need time.

　　"If it’s ok, then I’m too good." Mr. Chow denied that "The New King of Comedy" took two months to shoot because the film had no special effects, so it was relatively simple to shoot and not troublesome to post productin: "If you start with the official script, it should be three years. After the script was completed, it was actually very fast to shoot, but this time we used a different shooting method and spent some time in this regard."

　　Every time I see a group performance, I am reminded of my own experience

　　The actors who have worked with Stephen Chow, especially the group actors and set actors, will feel very distressed for him because he is too hard. Not only do the crew work hands-on, but every actor has to personally teach the play, including the group performance, the dragon set, and the filming of "The New King of Comedy" is no exception.

　　Stephen Chow admitted that filming is really tiring, so he sometimes wants to be a robot. "However, sometimes when you are doing what you like, you don’t feel too tired, and that feeling of fulfillment will dilute the fatigue. For a movie, there are no small roles, everyone is a useful role. To achieve the effect of the movie, no matter what kind of person it is, they will have an impact on the final presentation of the movie. Maybe it’s because of my own expression habits. I think the performance is more intuitive. I want the actors to immediately understand which feeling I want. But in the process, they will also create a lot of different things of themselves. In fact, everyone is giving inspiration together."

　　"The New King of Comedy" tells the story of the heroine Rumeng who encounters various setbacks in her life, but never gives up. Chow Xingchi said that every time he sees a group performance, he "naturally thinks of his own experience".

　　Stephen Chow’s movies were good at telling stories about little people, and his ability to tell the lives of little people from a normal perspective rather than a high-minded attitude was related to Stephen Chow’s mentality. Although he had been a superstar for many years, he would always say in interviews that he was still a little person and had an ordinary life. "The lives of those little people have not left me, but my job is to make movies, so everyone knows me, so I can continue to make movies and do what I like."

　　The only star in "The New King of Comedy" is Wang Baoqiang. Why don’t you find more mature actors to play? Mr. Chow said he wanted to give more people who are passionate, have dreams, and have been working hard a chance to find more talents. "This is what I have been doing myself. I hope that young actors will continue to appear, so that they can be inspired to participate in the film industry."

　　Zhou Xingchi often used some crew members in the movie, such as screenwriters, assistant directors, etc., who would become cast members. When asked why he had this "hobby", Zhou Xingchi laughed and said that because these people also have actor dreams, and there are many stories in the play in "The New King of Comedy", many of the characters are the cast members of the movie, "So it’s better to find real people to act, isn’t it?"

　　To be funny requires a very painful experience.

　　In "King of Comedy", there are many scenes from Zhou Xingchi’s real experience. For example, in the film, Yin Tianchou is shot to death by Du Juan’er after changing into a priest’s costume, but until Du Juan’er has dealt with all the bad guys, Yin Tianchou still plays "inner drama" later, so anxious that the director shouted "Cut". This clip is based on Zhou Xingchi’s experience in "The Legend of the Condor Hero".

　　In the film, a cockroach jumps onto the corpse played by Yin Tianchou, but he still doesn’t move. This scene originated from the true story of Chow Xingchi’s filming of the movie "Jiupin Sesame Official".

　　After 20 years, the "treatment" of the dragon set has not been improved. In "The King of New Comedy", E Jingwen played Rumeng, who suffered no less than Yin Tianchou, so much so that E Jingwen said with a smile that she could be selected as the heroine because of her "resistance to fighting", and the bitterness of walking around made the audience cry.

　　Zhou Xingchi himself, like Yin Tianchou and Rumeng, was an unpopular person on the crew because they had too many opinions and thought "he was an actor". In the 1983 version of "The Legend of the Condor Hero", Zhou Xingchi played a soldier who was about to be beaten to death by Mei Chaofeng’s palm. Before the performance, he took the initiative to discuss with the assistant director, "Can I block it with my hand and die in the second palm?" The assistant director glared: "Waste of time!"

　　Before he became a superstar, Zhou Xingchi had worked for six years, looked at countless eyes, and suffered countless hardships. Because he had no advantage in height, he had to wear an inner height of seven or eight centimeters to find a chance for himself, but other competitors would also wear it, so Zhou Xingchi still had no chance.

　　When Stephen Chow and Zheng Shaoqiu were filming the TV series "Metropolis" together, it was already very late one day, but Zhou Xingchi was in a daze at the elevator entrance, and then he suddenly lay down at the elevator door. The staff next to him were very surprised and watched Zhou Xingchi being hit by the elevator non-stop. Zhou Xingchi said: "If you die at the elevator door, it will have a magical effect of being hit non-stop." Zheng Shaoqiu next to you said: "You are really a good actor. I didn’t expect you to be so persistent." In the end, the director made the decision and used this shot.

　　During the "King of New Comedy" roadshow, Zhou Xingchi also recounted that when he was doing the trick, there was a line that he felt bad about when he got home, so he took a car back to the set and asked the director to shoot again. The director was not happy at first, and Zhou Xingchi knelt down and begged him in a hurry, and finally the director agreed to let him reshoot.

　　So, when asked about his deepest feelings about his long career, Zhou Xingchi said that it was common to be scolded and ridiculed, "For example, I asked the director if it was okay? The director said, ‘Forget it, I can’t see you, go away.’ What I remember deeply is that I waited every day, but I didn’t know what I was waiting for. In fact, it should be waiting for an opportunity. Waiting year after year, waiting for a second every day. Finally, when I was about to’die ‘, I finally had the opportunity, and I realized that it was not an opportunity, it was a complete misunderstanding, so I waited."

　　From the beginning of his career, after he became famous, he was hindered by various problems, criticized as a tyrant on the set, did not understand the world, and compared money with money. Over the years, Zhou Xingchi has been in constant disputes and criticisms, but he has never responded to all kinds of criticisms and is alone.

　　Wang Jing once commented: "Zhou Xingchi’s vicissitudes and melancholy are from beginning to end. He left all his smiles on the screen, as if you had to pay first to see him laugh in life."

　　Stephen Chow hides his true heart with comedy, but his seemingly simple comedy doesn’t mean shallow. Every laugh he makes is actually brewed from the five flavors of life. Chow said: "In fact, it takes a lot of pain to get a little laugh. To be funny also requires a very painful experience, and the most tragic things can also be the funniest things. It’s actually easy to do a crying scene, but to get a little laugh, you have to go through a lot of pain to achieve it. It’s really hard to do comedy."

　　I’m still working on it.

　　When 9-year-old Stephen Chow saw the movie "Tangshan Big Brother", he suddenly wanted to become an actor, "I want to become a kung fu star like Bruce Lee". At that time, he was so shy that he went out to eat with his mother. If there were outsiders, he would cover his face with menus. "I am afraid that others will look at me and talk at me."

　　So the mother’s "lofty ambition" for her son to become a star can only laugh back, but Zhou Xingchi is serious: "If you don’t have a dream, what’s the difference with Salted Fish?"

　　Today’s successful Stephen Chow is no longer a simple filmmaker. His diverse identities prevent him from returning to his youth known as "Xingzai". The power of capital makes it impossible for him to make certain decisions solely from the perspective of creation, but requires him to have greater capital ambitions and ambitions to enhance the confidence of investors.

　　Under these multiple demands, even though Zhou Xingchi was a genius, the process of his personal creativity blooming was also a process of being severely consumed. In addition to capital, age was another terrible reason for tormenting geniuses. Zhou Xingchi himself said, "Over the years, my movies have become less and less, and I just want to say to everyone, I’m sorry, I’m old."

　　As people get older, many things are taken lightly. Therefore, Zhou Xingchi now has more to endure and compromise when making a play. On the one hand, as he said: "It seems that after my age, every new play will be said to be exhausted." As an "old director", he also has to adapt to the current era and the current audience: "Not only movies, but the whole world is always changing, and we must always learn. The most important thing about movies is creativity. To bring freshness to the audience, movies are very important work for me. I think I can also give the audience something different, and I will try harder every time."

　　The childishness in the movie is a prominent label for Stephen Chow. In addition to the usual spoof and nonsense, the warm mermaid love serves the theme of environmental protection, making the film simple and easy to understand, and all ages eat it. The magic weapon in "Journey to the West" is "Three Hundred Children’s Songs", and in "The King of New Comedy", Wang Baoqiang, an outdated star, plays Snow White in a female costume.

　　Still struggling, Stephen Chow wants to convey "hard work and struggle" to people in "The King of New Comedy." He also deliberately chose Chen Baiqiang’s old song "Gale" as the theme song of the movie. When he was down, "Gale" once gave him great comfort. Zhou Xingchi said: "The lyrics of this song are very thought-provoking and need to be carefully felt, such as singing’The wind doesn’t care about the beginning and the end, it only knows how to rush ‘, or’If you have a dream in your heart, you can track it with all your strength, like the wild wind in the sky.’ You can imagine the picture of a small person running with all his strength. Isn’t it appropriate to play this song as background music at this time? At this time, the’strong wind ‘also gave the little person chasing the dream a kind of strength, just like the people who fight hard are the wild wind. "

　　In Zhou Xingchi’s opinion, everyone is Yin Tianchou, and they are all working hard for their dreams. "In fact, everyone can be the protagonist in their own life. Don’t be afraid of failure, hardship or all kinds of resistance, and work hard with full blood, just like the wind. Young people who are working hard, I hope you can all become the king of comedy in your own life."

　　The "king" in Zhou Xingchi’s mouth is by no means the king that the public understands, but a small person who lives seriously and pursues hard. "In them, you can see authenticity, confidence, seriousness and even seriousness, full of enthusiasm for the work you are doing, and will not give up no matter how difficult it is. Keep pursuing your dreams, and even some persistence. I am also working hard, so I hope to dedicate it to those of you who are working hard. After reading it, you can be more confident and work harder."

　　The classic city tower scene in "Journey to the West", the supreme treasure that seemed to be indifferent to nothing, instantly turned into the sunset warrior on the city tower, strode towards the woman he loved, hugged it with all his strength and said, "I will never leave in my life, I love you."

　　Perhaps, this is also the line that Stephen Chow wants to say to the movie he has loved all his life.

　　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.

　　The code, demo, and paper are all here:

1905 movie network news　On July 21, the fifth Jackie Chan International Action Film Week kicked off in Datong. Led by Tsui Hark, a seven-member jury composed of the Russian director Sergei Podlov, the New Zealand director Martin Campbell, the Canadian director Paul Haggis, the Japanese action filmmaker Baoaki Kurata, the Thai director Prakia Pingkeyao and the Chinese actor Xu Fan made an official appearance. It will determine the best picture and seven "Iron Man" honors.

Zhu Yilong, as the youth promotion ambassador of this film week, took the stage to pay tribute to action filmmakers and convey the awe of his profession. Jackie Chan and Wu Lei, the youth ambassador of the ancient Great Wall Protection Program, appeared together to call on filmmakers and all sectors of society to pay attention to the protection of the Great Wall.

　

Tsui Hark leads the international jury to select "Iron Man" Zhu Yilong to pay tribute to action filmmaker Jackie Chan as an idol

　

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.

　

"When I saw my eldest brother standing on the stage with a golden golden statuette in his hand, saying his acceptance speech, I was very moved, excited and proud." 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."

　

Jackie Chan sings "Starlight" to support poverty reduction, Wu Lei brings 100 volunteers to call for the protection of the Great Wall

　

At the opening ceremony, singers such as Black ACE, Lin Zhixuan, Dimaxi, Jike Junyi, Li Yugang, Li Xinyi, Gao Jin, Wei Yunxi, Lin Junjie, Phoenix Legend and other singers brought wonderful performances to support the 5th Jackie Chan International Action Film Week.

　

Accompanied by the singing of children’s voices, Jackie Chan also played a song "Starlight" at the opening ceremony. This song is the theme song of the movie channel "Poverty reduction battle – Starlight Action". In the past year, more than 100 Starlight team members have gone to poverty-stricken areas all over the country under the call of the promoter Jackie Chan, and used their influence and appeal to do their part for poverty reduction.

　

After a year, Jackie Chan returned to Datong, the starting point of the "Starlight Action", and launched the ancient Great Wall protection plan. Jackie Chan once again spoke out for the "Starlight Action", which aims to call on filmmakers and the whole society to join the protection of the Great Wall. The launch of the plan also helps to further carry out poverty reduction, penetrating into the front line, so that the cultural heritage of the Great Wall can truly benefit the poor, which is of great significance to the development of areas along the Great Wall and poverty reduction.

　

Wu Lei, who took to the stage as a youth ambassador with 100 volunteers to respond to the Great Wall protection plan, said: "By protecting the ancient Great Wall, it is also an honor to be able to continue to contribute a small amount to the fight against poverty. I hope we can call on more young people to join us."

　

Jackie Chan took over the banner of protecting the Great Wall from Yuan Jianqin, one of the ten most beautiful Great Wall guards in Shanxi Province, and passed it on in turn.In the end, Wu Lei waved the flag in the center of Taiwan and led the audience to recite the oath of "Let’s protect the ancient Great Wall together, and the Great Wall will never fall."

　

With the opening of the 5th Jackie Chan International Action Film Week, a series of activities and screenings will also be carried out in sequence. The best film and 7 "Iron Man" honors selected by the jury led by Tsui Hark will be officially announced at the closing ceremony on July 27. Thank you to FAW-Volkswagen, the official designated car of the 5th Jackie Chan International Action Film Week, for your strong support of this event!

　　International Online auto channel News: At the just-opened Shanghai Auto Show, a brand-new model under the Geely brand — Xingyue L also appeared in the booth. Xingyue L was built based on Geely CMA super matrix and was equipped with Volvo Drive-E series 2.0TD in-cylinder direct injection turbocharged engine. Xingyue L is the latest masterpiece of the design concept in the era of Geely 4.0, and it is also a heavyweight model for Geely to enter a comprehensive architecture.

　　In terms of appearance, Geely Xingyue L adopts the latest 4.0 design language, and the simple and bright lines give Xingyue L an international style. The front face of Xingyue L is designed with a heavy design, and the air intake grille with a sense of strength matches the rib line of the engine hatch, which highlights the sense of strength of Xingyue L. The angular headlights incorporate two three-stage daytime running lights. C-shaped chrome-plated elements are added to both sides of the front bumper for embellishment, and the chrome-plated decorative strips running horizontally also add a heavy feeling to the front of the car.

　　The side of the car body also continues the simple and atmospheric design style of the front of the car, and the black wheel eyebrows also add a hard-core atmosphere to Xingyue L. Although Geely officially positioned the Star Yue L as a compact SUV model, the "L" in the name is not added. The official explanations are Larger, Luxury and Liberate. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the Xingyue L are 4770/1895/1689mm and the wheelbase is 2845mm, which completely reaches the level of mainstream mid-level SUV. The multi-spoke wheel hub has both a sense of movement and strength, and the size of the front and rear tires is 245/45 R20.

　　The shape of the rear of the car is simple and layered. There are 8 LED light sources on both sides of the penetrating taillights, which form a lattice layout after lighting. The concave license plate frame design below reveals the luxury of the atmosphere. Although the Xingyue L adopts the hidden exhaust with double sides and double outlets, chrome trim strips are still used on both sides of the rear bumper to outline the shape of the tail row.
