It will take time for the Russian army to become a world-class army.

  The global financial crisis is spreading. At the critical moment when the new round of nuclear disarmament negotiations between the United States and Russia is about to begin, Russia has thrown out a military reform plan that is said to be "unprecedented", aiming at building a world-class army through streamlining reforms. This reform plan involves many aspects, such as the reduction of middle and senior officers, the reform of the establishment system, and the renewal of weapons and equipment, and proposes to complete the disarmament reform goal within three to four years.


  The Russian military’s military reform plan this time reflects the tough attitude of the new president Medvedev towards military reform, and its intensity is indeed unprecedented. However, the author believes that the Russian military reform is bound to be affected by the world financial crisis and other factors, and will face many difficulties. There are still many variables in whether its reform goals can be achieved as scheduled.


  The new and old presidents relay disarmament to promote the reform of the Russian army, and the "Mapo combination" and "strong alliance" are conducive to the development of the Russian army


  In 2000, when Putin took over the presidency from Yeltsin, he was faced with the great challenge of revitalizing the Russian economy and reducing the Russian army. After eight years in office, President Putin, known as the strongman of Russia, showed his strong ruling style with all his strength and boldly reformed the economy, so that the Russian economy gradually stepped out of the trough and its international status rose day by day.


  At the same time, he also attached great importance to Russia’s national defense construction, especially the military reform, advocated reducing the redundant establishment of various powerful departments, and put forward the idea that the quality of army building and army building should be adapted to the country’s economic capacity, and the military strength of the Ministry of National Defense and other powerful departments should be developed in a balanced way. In fact, during his presidency, Putin put forward the goal of reducing Russian troops from 1.2 million to 1 million. However, due to various reasons, the goal of army reduction was finally not achieved.


  After taking office as president, Medvedev continued the "Putin line", still defended Russia’s national interests as strongly as Putin, took building a stronger Russia as his own responsibility, and appeared in front of the world in a tougher posture, "inheriting" Putin’s thoughts on issues involving the fundamental interests of Russia, such as political diplomacy, economic development and national defense construction. For example, in terms of national security strategy, it is still necessary to rely on strong military strength to prevent and contain various threats to Russia, requiring the Russian army to always maintain a high degree of combat readiness and ensure strategic containment of any potential enemy, especially strategic nuclear containment to deal with possible invasion; In national defense construction, we will persist in building a "more efficient and modern" army and "build an army that conforms to the country’s economic strength and can reliably guarantee national security." In particular, it is very important for Russia’s political stability and inheritance to let former President Putin become the prime minister of the government and form a "strong alliance" political situation.


  Although there have been many new speculations in the western media about the relationship between the "Mapp combination" in the past year, the two men are politically consistent, especially in their understanding of the goal of military reform. Although Putin became prime minister, he still paid attention to the army and supported its reform. Last year, when the Russian army clashed with the Georgian army, Putin personally flew to North Ossetia for inspection. The introduction of the plan to reduce the army to 1 million is not only the continuation of President Medvedev’s "disarmament line" to former President Putin, but also the consensus reached by President Mei and Prime Minister Pu on the future reform and development of the Russian army.


  One is a strong president and the other is a strong prime minister. This politically highly consistent "strong alliance" and "Mapp combination" will be conducive to the realization of the Russian military reform goal. However, the reform of the Russian army will still face pressure from many sides, even opposition and blame.


  The contradiction between rebuilding an economic power and building a military power is prominent, and it is difficult to have both fish and bear’s paw at the same time.


  Since Putin took office as federal president, he has regarded the development of military forces as an important part of Russian national development. With the Russian economy gradually coming out of the trough, the Russian government has gradually increased its investment in national defense, showing a trend of substantial increase year by year. During Putin’s eight years as president, Russia’s military expenditure increased by about 27% every year. In order to carry out the new "realistic containment" military strategy and further demonstrate its military strength, since 2008, Russia has dispatched navies and air forces to all the oceans in the world, as far away as Venezuela, Cuba, Somalia and other regions and sea areas, and even envisaged the establishment of military bases in Yemen, Cuba, Venezuela and Syria, which seems to make people feel that Russia has become an economic and military power that can compete with the United States.


  However, this is not the case. Russia is still far from the goal of "building an army that conforms to the country’s economic strength and can reliably guarantee national security." Judging from the current situation of the Russian army, although it has been disarmed several times, the army is still plagued by the problem of redundant staff. The Russian army has about 1.2 million regular troops, but the proportion of its officers is as high as 30% (the proportion of officers in the western developed countries is 7.5% ~ 15%). In addition, there are more than 2.1 million paramilitary forces in Russia, which add up to about 3.3 million people. The Russian Ministry of Defence has publicly admitted that over the years, as much as 70% of the Russian military’s military expenditure has been used for salaries. As a result, we can’t squeeze enough money to buy new weapons and equipment, strengthen the development of new weapons and upgrade the existing weapons.


  It can be seen that although the Russian economy has gone out of the trough, there is still a gap between its strength and status as an economic power, and it is still inadequate to build a world-class army in a short period of time. Only when the country is rich can the army be strengthened. Without the development of the national economy, it is impossible to develop the army building. Only when the army building develops in harmony with the national economic construction is the most reasonable development. Russian military construction will also follow this development path, and it may take longer.


  US-Russian nuclear disarmament affects Russian military reform plan.


  After the new US President Barack Obama took office, in order to promise the concept of "pursuing a world without nuclear weapons" put forward during the election campaign, he advocated to start negotiations with Russia as soon as possible to reduce their respective nuclear weapons reserves by 80%, that is, to keep 1,000 nuclear warheads in the United States and Russia. On the one hand, the United States wants to deploy anti-missile systems in eastern Europe, and on the other hand, it wants Russia to reduce its nuclear weapons in large numbers, which has caused strong opposition in Russia:


  Russian military experts first raised strong opposition to this, warning that Russia’s nuclear weapons will not be able to deal with the US anti-missile system after reduction, and warned that by 2015, the US nuclear forces will be able to destroy all Russian nuclear weapons at one time, and Russia should be prepared for this.


  In fact, there are still substantive differences of position between Russia and the United States on some principled issues of signing the new treaty. The Russian side believes that "the number of nuclear warheads in the arsenal should be clearly defined and documented in legal form, which is transparent and clear to people." The United States wants to be limited to nuclear warheads deployed on delivery vehicles, so that the nuclear warheads in stock and strategic delivery vehicles will not be within the scope of the treaty. Russia believes that nuclear disarmament negotiations should not only include the reduction of strategic nuclear weapons, but also extend to all aspects of this issue, such as the deployment of missile defense systems by the United States in Eastern Europe.


  Russia has always been dissatisfied with the deployment of the missile defense system by the United States in Eastern Europe, and NATO has been expanding eastward, even setting up missile early warning systems and anti-missile bases in Poland and other countries, which makes Russia very angry. Russia warned that if the United States insists on deploying a missile defense system in Europe, the planned base will become the target of Russian attack.


  Under the severe situation of American strategic squeeze and NATO’s eastward expansion, whether Russia’s existing military strength can effectively deal with the surrounding security threats is the most worrying thing for Russia. Only by "retaining a considerable number of nuclear forces" as a deterrent force can Russia ensure the reasonable scale of conventional forces and compete with the United States and NATO, which will directly affect Russia’s reform and development of the military.


  The military reform plan is ambitious, and it is difficult to push forward the reform.


  At the end of 2005, the Russian military proposed a new reform plan to reduce the total number of Russian troops from 1.2 million to 1 million. According to the idea, the existing organizational system of services and arms will be abolished, and the corresponding command institutions will be dissolved, replaced by six headquarters, the military region will be abolished, and the functions of the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff will be divided into two lines according to government decrees and military orders. But a few years later, the slogan of disarmament is still "thunder is loud, little rain". Obviously, the Russian military’s disarmament has encountered great resistance. From the analysis, there are three major difficulties:


  One is political pressure. The Russian Communist Party recently openly opposed the military reform carried out by Russia, calling it destructive. Serdyukov, the Russian defense minister, was asked to resign. In a recent statement issued by the Central Committee of the Russian Communist Party and the Duma Party Group of the party, it was pointed out: "This reform may be the most destructive since Peter the Great founded the Russian army in the 3rd century. If our army moves from the most difficult Great Patriotic War to a strong one, it may lose its ability to defend Russia in general because of serdyukov’s’ reform’ in peacetime. "


  Some military experts also said that in the face of NATO’s eastward expansion and the pressing policy of the United States to deploy anti-missile systems in Eastern Europe, once Russia is disarmed to 1 million people, it will be difficult to cope with conventional military actions, and the terrorist forces are even more important.


  In addition, it is still unknown whether the uncertain factors in India-Pakistan border, Israel-Pakistan conflict, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Somalia, the DPRK and the ROK can give Russia a "peaceful environment" to make its army calm down and carry out reforms.


  Second, it comes from economic difficulties. Affected by the world financial crisis, it is also unknown whether the Russian government can guarantee the funds needed to realize the reform goal of "making the army more efficient and modern and making the life of Russian soldiers more comfortable" in the next three to four years.


  The third is the resistance from senior officers. The war made the Russian army realize the inevitability and urgency of military reform, but the military layoffs also made the officers realize the cruelty and helplessness of giving up their interests. The number of Russian military disarmament this time is not large, but the layoffs are mainly officers. By 2012, the number of Russian military officers will be reduced from 355,000 to 150,000. In particular, the reduction focuses on middle and senior officers, of whom the number of generals has been reduced from the current 1,107 to 877. Some of these officers may retire directly, and some may face the situation of no fixed place, unemployment and long-term inability to find a job. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand the strong resistance from military officers, especially senior officers, to military reform. However, the reform will be inevitable, and where the disarmament plan goes will ultimately depend on whether President Medvedev’s disarmament determination is firm enough.


  The financial crisis has spread all over the world, and the reform and development of the Russian army will certainly face greater challenges.


  According to reports, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin announced that from 2009 to the end of 2011, Russia will spend 4 trillion rubles (about 140 billion US dollars) on the upgrading plan of military weapons and equipment. In 2009, the Russian government will provide 1 trillion rubles to the Ministry of National Defense, which is mainly used to purchase new weapons technology and equipment.


  According to previous reports, Russian military procurement in 2009 increased by 30% year-on-year, which will set a new record of 1.3 trillion rubles, while in 2010 and 2011, it will increase by 30 billion rubles and 70 billion rubles respectively. It seems that Russia’s plan to develop its army in recent years has been finalized and will soon enter the implementation stage.


  However, the financial crisis is spreading around the world, which will directly turn into an economic crisis. Russia’s economic growth has begun to slow down. Since last year, Russia’s oil revenue has been greatly reduced, and the government’s fiscal revenue has decreased. The Russian ruble has depreciated by 35% against the US dollar. Last year, Russia’s stock market fell by 70%. There are indications that Russia’s economic situation this year is not optimistic.


  The financial crisis has greatly affected Russia’s fiscal revenue, which has restricted the realization of Russia’s military budget from the macro-economic level and will definitely affect the realization of Russia’s military development plan. In addition, due to the impact of the international financial crisis, the military departments and military industries of all countries in the world have been severely impacted, lacking funds, laying off employees and turbulent raw material markets. Therefore, Russia’s military production will be seriously affected, which will further affect the realization of the planned development goals of the Russian army. The crisis is still spreading, and it seems that it has not bottomed out. The reform and development of the Russian army will certainly face greater challenges brought about by the financial crisis.


  In short, the direction of Russian military reform and development is in line with the requirements of the times, and the practice of saving financial resources and improving capabilities through "downsizing" of the military is also in line with Russia’s actual situation. However, due to the global financial crisis, international politics, domestic economic development and social environment, its reform and development will not be smooth sailing.

Accused of consumer suffering, Xú Zhēng responded to the film aimed at showing hope and tenacity

Accused of consumer suffering Xú Zhēng responded.

The film "Retrograde Life" is being broadcasted in cinemas. On August 13th, the film director and starring Xú Zhēng and actor Wu Jiakai appeared in Hangzhou roadshow. According to statistics, as of noon on August 12, the box office of summer movies in 2024 has exceeded 9.2 billion yuan. Although it is inferior to that in 2023, with the release of more kinds of rich movies, there is still room for the summer movie market to pick up.

"Retrograde Life" focuses on the story of Gao Zhilei, a middle-aged unemployed person, becoming a takeaway, and is written, directed and starred by Xú Zhēng himself. Xú Zhēng shared in the roadshow that he chose to act in person because of his deep resonance with the role, so as to more accurately present the complex feelings inside the role. After the film was released, the audience’s evaluation showed polarization, and some critics thought that the film was suspected of "consumption suffering". Xú Zhēng responded by saying that the movie can’t meet everyone’s expectations. He respects every feeling of watching movies, and emphasizes that it is unfair to criticize directly before watching the movie.

Since the release of Retrograde Life for six days, the box office has quickly exceeded 200 million yuan, which indicates that Xu Zheng has once again set foot in realistic themes after Dying to Survive. Dying to Survive not only achieved commercial success, but also aroused social concern about medical equity. In its first week, it topped the global box office with 1.333 billion yuan, and finally gained 3.1 billion yuan.

As a hot spot in the film market, summer movies continue to attract diverse film works. Although the opening of the summer file in 2024 is slightly dull compared with the previous year, with the strong performance of films such as Catching Dolls and Silent Killing, and the addition of new films such as Decryption and Safe Evacuation from the 21st Century, the market is expected to usher in new growth momentum. According to statisticians’ analysis, many domestic and foreign films to be released in the next few weeks, including The Hedgehog and Detective Conan: A Million Dollar Five-pointed Star, will have a positive impact on the summer file.

The industry predicts that the summer box office in 2024 may remain in the range of 17.5 billion to 21.7 billion yuan, showing that despite the challenges, the film market is still recovering, especially the producers of high-quality content are expected to usher in performance improvement.

BYD Seagull understands that old drivers are also easily planted with grass.

Although cars can improve the convenience of people’s travel, safety is still an unavoidable topic. Therefore, many car companies have begun to upgrade the safety of their models. Of course, for consumers, a car with complete active and passive safety configurations will be more popular. For most people, it is only the beginning to mention cars from 4S shops, and the cost of car maintenance in the later period is the big deal. So what I said today can help us save some money in the future. Let’s look down with Xiaobian.

Let’s take a look at the appearance of seagulls first. The front style of seagulls is very simple and looks more domineering and stylish. Coupled with headlights, the momentum is quite sufficient. The car is equipped with LED daytime running lights, automatic opening and closing, delayed closing and so on. Coming to the side of the car, the body size of the car is 3780MM*1715MM*1540MM. The car adopts simple lines, and the side circumference looks very simple and fashionable. With large-sized thick-walled tires, it looks full of sports. In the rear part, the overall shape of the rear echoes the front of the car, the taillight style is dignified, and the overall layout is impressive.

In terms of interior, the interior looks very delicate and the overall visual effect is very distinctive. The steering wheel design of this car is very fashionable and generous, with imitation leather material and high palm fit. From the central control point of view, the design of the center console is reasonable, which makes the interior style impressive, and the overall design of the central control is very good. The dashboard and the seat are equally eye-catching, and the dashboard design is remarkable and very eye-catching. The car adopts imitation leather seats, which are wide and thick and comfortable.

Seagull is equipped with a motor with a total power of 55KW and a total torque of 135N.m, which has good acceleration, excellent cruising range and good power performance.

The space performance of the seagull trunk is not bad. After putting down the rear seats, it can further expand the space, and its carrying capacity is great enough to meet daily household needs. In addition, the car is equipped with anti-lock braking (ABS), LED daytime running lights, brake assist (EBA/BAS, etc.), braking force distribution (EBD), traction control (ASR/TCS, etc.), main driving airbag, co-pilot airbag, side airbag curtain, front side airbag and other safety configurations.

After reading the above description, Xiaobian will make a summary. This car has been introduced almost before, and I believe many users who buy a car have taken a fancy to its comfort and practicality.

"Mai Passerby" premieres in Tokyo, Guo Fucheng performs the adversity life of little people


1905 movie network news On October 29, the film starring Guo Fucheng and Miriam Yeung, produced by Zheng Borui and directed by new director Huang Qingxun, held its world premiere at the 32nd Tokyo International Film Festival. Previously, "Mai Passerby" was successfully shortlisted for the "Asian Future" section of this Tokyo International Film Festival because of its highly social discussion of the shooting topic and the superb performance of the actors.

The premiere of "Mai Passerby" was held at the EX-theatre, and the 500-seat screening hall was full. During the viewing process, the audience also cried several times because of the warm and healing story. During the post-screening exchange session, the audience praised the film and gave "Mai Passerby" and the film’s creative team a thunderous five-minute applause.


Guo Fucheng debuts at the world premiere of "Mai Passerby" in Tokyo to rave reviews  

The "Tokyo International Film Festival" is one of the largest and most popular film festivals in Asia, and it is also the only A-category competitive international film festival event in Japan that has been recognized by the International Association of Film Producers (FIAPF). The "Asian Future" section of the Tokyo International Film Festival focuses on encouraging new Asian directors, and there is an award for the best film of "Asian Future". As soon as it was shortlisted for the "Asian Future" section, "Mai Passer" attracted a lot of attention from domestic and foreign media. On the evening of the 28th, director Huang Qingxun, Guo Fucheng and other main creators attended the opening ceremony of the 32nd Tokyo International Film Festival held in Roppongi, Tokyo. The red carpet ceremony where everyone dressed up immediately became the focus of attention.

After the film’s premiere, the audience stood up to applaud the film. The audience at the scene was even more full of praise for the film. "The film thinks about poverty from a larger structure, and explores love from a smaller perspective. Probably my favorite Chinese movie in recent years." The audience also said that Guo Fucheng’s performance was "very amazing", and praised Guo Fucheng for completely breaking through his own image this time, and the transition from financial genius to down-and-out homeless was refreshing.


The warm story of "people on the edge" drew the audience to tears, and the gold medal team escorted "Mai Passerby" 

The movie "Mai Passerby" focuses on social reality and is based on real events. It shows the warmth of the world by showing a group of strangers warming each other and helping each other in a fast food restaurant, gradually generating family-like feelings. The film’s calm, restrained and warm shooting techniques also infected every audience at the scene. During the viewing process, the audience was also moved by the plot of the film and wept several times.

In the meeting after the film, the actor Guo Fucheng first thanked the audience for their support and confessed that in order to better create the character, he once went to a 24-hour fast food restaurant in the middle of the night to experience the role and understand the real life of homeless people. Guo Fucheng said: "I have played many roles and challenged many roles, but when I first saw this script two years ago, I decided that I would play this role no matter what.I like’Mai Passerby ‘, and I also want to try to play a homeless man. The film is based on realistic themes not to show suffering, but to explore the care and love between people. "

Fast food restaurants are a place where many children are happy, and movies are the other side of fast food restaurants after nightfall. Movies are not just entertainment, but also reflect many social issues and relationships between people. Thank you to the director for your trust. I am very happy to be involved in the filming of this film. "Director Huang Qingxun explained the title of the film:" There are many’people ‘in the middle of the word’Mai’ (), and there are many’mouths’ in the word’Road ‘, which represents an urban phenomenon. In addition, the English title’I’m Livin’ It ‘represents another meaning,’ I live here ‘. " 


"Mai passers-by" are also known as "Mai refugees", referring to the fact that many low-level workers are homeless at night and choose to spend the night at McDonald’s. The inspiration of the film is based on the sad reality that exists in this society all over the world. Although each of them has different reasons for their difficulties, they meet together in a 24-hour restaurant by chance. The fast food restaurant has become their temporary "home". They are also people who have fallen into the world. In this temporary "home", they warm each other, help each other, find the warmth of their families from strangers, and find their dreams in life together. It is reported that the film will be released in the mainland, when the audience can see this touching work in the cinema.


"Flowers" bloomed in surprise today, and Hu Gebao always staged the Shanghai Times

From December 27th, the TV series "Flowers" produced by CCTV, Tencent Video, Shanghai Film (Group) Co., Ltd., and Shanghai Flower, produced by Zedong Film, landed on CCTV8 golden file, and was broadcast exclusively on Tencent Video. It was broadcast on Oriental Satellite TV and Jiangsu Satellite TV on January 2nd. The play is adapted from the writer Jin Yucheng’s "Five One Projects" and the Mao Dun Literary Award-winning novel of the same name, and is produced and directed by Wang Jiawei. Hu Ge, Ma Yili, Tang Yan and Xin Zhilei lead the lead roles.

The drama focuses on Shanghai during the period of great change in the times, revolving around the cross-narrative of A Bao, showing the ups and downs of the life of the trendsetters in the business scene of the Shanghai Storm Fair in the early 1990s. The core of "Flowers" begins with people and does not stop at people, and the era behind the portraits of the characters has always been the creative motif of the drama. In order to accurately present the sense of the times behind the story, director Wang Jiawei has undergone repeated scrutiny on the script, casting, clothing, and light and shadow effects. The crew has carried out six years of preparatory work, striving to bring the audience into the atmosphere of the era of Shanghai’s local customs and rapid economic development in the 1990s.

Hu Ge avoided Ma Yili’s direct gaze. Why did he not dare to face his partner?

In the old alley in Shanghai, Bao and Reiko stood opposite each other. The two of them jointly operated a local restaurant "Night Tokyo" on Jinxian Road, and they were partners who knew the micro-time and walked side by side. The atmosphere of the two on the poster was a little tense. In the picture, "For me, there is nothing that I can’t bear to part with," which seemed to allude to the subtle character relationship between Bao and Reiko.

Hu Ge, Tang Yan, fashion trendsetters, best friends are never business

Bao took advantage of the wind of the times to rise to become Bao Zong, relying on "the right hand to grasp foreign trade, the left hand to engage in stocks". The foreign trade company he founded is anchored at No. 27 on the Bund, and Miss Wang is a staff member here. In the poster picture, Mr. Bao said to Miss Wang, "For me, ribs rice cakes have never been a business." As a representative of Shanghai-style snacks, ribs rice cakes are famous for their waxy, crispy, fragrant and affordable. Such a civilian snack with regional characteristics not only shows the life-like side of the two people, but also hints at the escalation of their relationship.

Hu Ge smiled at Xin Zhilei, remembering everything that should be remembered

On the poster, Mr. Bao’s gaze at Li Li is very interesting, there is admiration in the examination, and there is definitely fear in the examination. Li Li came to Shanghai alone from Shenzhen and opened the leading luxury restaurant Zhizhen Garden on the most prosperous Yellow River Road in Shanghai. With accurate vision and hard wrists, how could she be just a simple hotel proprietress? She faced two lines of small print, "I will remember what should be remembered, in my way". The restaurants on the Yellow River Road are all business venues for news exchanges. Li Li and Mr. Bao are so tit-for-tat, which must indicate that the two of them will rise and fall in the business sea together.

The three posters show the relationship between Ah Bao and the three female protagonists from different sides, and also reveal the character positioning of the four protagonists at different stages from the details, leaving a lingering rhyme for the struggle of the character group portraits in the context of the changing times, which makes the audience more curious about the actual appearance of the play.

The TV drama "Flowers" projects the story perspective on the early 1990s. The spring breeze of the big era is on the rise, and Shanghai, as a frontier of economic development, has shown a vigorous and upward vitality in all walks of life. Director Wang Jiawei said in the trailer that A Bao, who had nothing, turned gorgeously within ten years and became the all-powerful Bao Zong. "In addition to his personal struggles, he also needs the blessing of the times." The drama begins with the fate of the little people in the background of the big era. It shows the vitality of countless A Bao in the section of the era. How will it finally fall back into the innovative expression of the times?

All the curiosities and questions will be answered in the TV series "Flowers". It is reported that in addition to the Mandarin version, the Shanghai version of "Flowers" will also be launched in the near future. The actors said in the latest trailer that the story is presented in Shanghai dialect, the characters are more intimate, and the language expression is more local. It has its own flavor and flavor with the Mandarin version. Of course, it is also equally exciting. Tonight at 19:30, lock in the CCTV-8 gold powerhouse and Tencent video, and bloom together with "Flowers".

"Agent Grandpa" is set for 4.1 Andy Lau to sing for Samuel Hung’s birthday


    1905 movie network news On January 7, the Chinese action film held a press conference, and the main creators of Hong Jinbao, Andy Lau, Zhu Yuchen and members of the Seven Xiaofu Yuan Biao, Yuan Hua, Yuan Ting and Yuan Bao attended. On the same day, coinciding with the birthday of director and star Hong Jinbao, Andy Lau and the Seven Xiaofu brothers also sang a birthday song for Hong Jinbao to celebrate his birthday. At the end of the event, the film announced that "My Agent Grandpa" was officially set for release in mainland theaters on April 1, 2016.

"Agent Grandpa "exposure notice is set for April 1, Hong Jinbao: All good plays are for Andy Lau

    In this collaboration, "My Agent Grandpa", Hung Jinbao and Andy Lau are both multiple jobs. The former is the director and star, while the latter also takes on the work of investors and producers in addition to the main character. Hung Jinbao half-jokingly said that Lau Dehua was "tricked" by himself to participate in the film, while Andy also echoed that although he is the boss, he will listen to the words of his eldest brother on the set and behave very well. However, he did not forget to break the story of Hong Jinbao on the set: "He loves to eat on the set every day. Fortunately, I am a vegetarian, otherwise I would be the same size as him now."

    At the press conference, the first trailer of "My Agent Grandpa" was revealed, including fights, chases, jumping off buildings, flying cars and other scenes. Hong Jinbao showed his skills in the film, performing the classic moves of close combat against the villain, knocking more than a dozen enemies to the ground in a row. However, he revealed that although these clips are quite exciting, more good scenes are still on Andy Lau. On the same day, the film also officially announced that "My Agent Grandpa" will be set to land in mainland theaters on April 1, 2016.

Hong Jinbao recalled the brotherhood of Qixiaofu back then, and Andy Lau sang for his birthday Jackie Chan to send blessings

    The day of the press conference coincided with Hong Jinbao’s birthday. Yuan Biao, Yuan Hua, Yuan Bao and Yuan Qiu, members of the Seven Xiaofu, made a special trip to the scene to sing the birthday song with Andy Lau to celebrate the birthday of the eldest brother. This time, several brothers were invited by Hong Jinbao to participate in "My Agent Grandpa". Such a deep brotherhood also made Hua Zai quite envious and emotional: "I also hope to have such a good brother. If [the eldest brothers] need to shoot movies in the future, they will find me, and I will be there."

    Joining forces with the brothers again also evoked memories of Hong Jinbao when he was young. At the scene, he also shared the story of his time with Yuan Hua and others: "At that time, I would always fight with Yuan Hua every New Year’s Eve, because at that time we would get candy in the performance, and everyone would play cards and compete for these pieces of candy to eat. And when I skipped school and hid secretly, Yuan Hua would also bring me food, even if I was beaten by my master, I would not say a word." And the members of Qixiaofu also thanked Hong Jinbao for not forgetting to support his brother in filming. Although Jackie Chan, who is also a member of Qixiaofu Brothers, did not come to the scene that day, he also wished his eldest brother a happy birthday through VCR and acted cute to send a few kisses, which made Hong Jinbao quite happy.

Jinan artificial intelligence industry accelerated growth, focus on Jinan government network

In today’s rapidly changing technology, we have unknowingly used the convenience brought by artificial intelligence (AI). For example, when you handle business in Jinan Administrative Examination and Approval Service Hall, Jinan Taxation Bureau of the State Administration of Taxation and other business halls, the smart government service hall will provide you with convenience; when you use medical self-service equipment to handle business in Jinan tier 1 hospital, or use navigation for travel, AI is quietly helping you.

With industrial upgrading, artificial intelligence has become an important driving force for a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation. In Jinan, many companies in the field of artificial intelligence are constantly expanding application scenarios, fully mining the value of data, and using AI intelligence to empower modern industries to upgrade, promote social development to be more intelligent and efficient, and help cities become smarter. In this process, "industrial AI" is driving "AI industrialization", and Quancheng AI industry is accelerating growth.

Artificial intelligence leaders continue to climb and jump

When the national artificial intelligence industry is booming, Jinan has emerged a number of competitive representative enterprises in the industry. For example, Inspur and Shensi Electronics were selected as the top 30 AI China’s strongest artificial intelligence companies.

From the development path, empowering the transformation and upgrading of the real economy and the construction of smart cities has become a key area for Jinan artificial intelligence enterprises to continue to cultivate.

For example, Shensi Electronics has cooperated with Jinan Second Machine Tool and Baidu to implement smart factory solutions, promoting digital and intelligent transformation of key scenarios such as numerical control of stamping equipment product production and quality inspection, operation and maintenance and acceptance, maintenance and after-sales services, and promoting comprehensive quality improvement and efficiency.

In addition to the above applications, the artificial intelligence solutions created by Shensi Electronics have been applied in batches in industries such as energy, government affairs, medical care, emergency response, public security and finance. With such a wide range of industry applications, Shensi Electronics has only used it for 7 years. In this regard, Min Wanli, chief scientist of Shensi Electronics, said that the company has always maintained high-intensity independent research and development and technological innovation advantages, and accelerated the promotion of artificial intelligence empowered real economy innovation applications.

As a leading AI enterprise in Jinan, Inspur is also accelerating the inclusion of industrial AI, and has realized the implementation of industrial AI in the fields of finance, railways, electric power, transportation, smart cities, petroleum and petrochemical industries. For example, in the field of production, Inspur has built a world-leading server intelligent manufacturing factory. Compared with traditional production methods, manpower is reduced by 75%, production efficiency is increased by 30%, and production capacity is increased by nearly 4 times.

Deep empowering segmentation scenes break new ground

Application scenarios can be described as the vitality of artificial intelligence technology. From the development of Jinan artificial intelligence industry, in addition to the leading enterprises that have covered many industries with AI technology such as Inspur and Shensi Electronics, there are also a number of enterprises that focus on a certain field and are deeply empowered.

Zhongyang Health Technology Group Co., Ltd., which has been deeply involved in the field of medical informatization for more than 20 years, has become a leader in artificial intelligence application solutions in the medical field across the country. Its intelligent diagnosis auxiliary system for pulmonary nodules, intelligent diagnosis system for rib fractures, and intelligent auxiliary diagnosis system for coronary CTA have been used in more than 220 hospitals across the country; the ICD artificial intelligence coding system has reached the current leading level in China and has been used in hundreds of hospitals in nearly 100 cities across the country, successfully solving the problem of disease coding in the industry.

Just recently, the dynamic ECG intelligent assisted diagnosis system built by Zhongyang Health for many years was successfully launched in Juxian People’s Hospital. "From the application effect, it far exceeds expectations. It used to take 40 minutes for a doctor to see a 24-hour dynamic ECG, but now it takes less than 5 minutes to complete the ECG diagnosis after applying our artificial intelligence system. While improving the quality of diagnosis, it greatly improves the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment." Gao Xiyu, head of scientific research at Zhongyang Health, said. Behind such intelligence and efficiency is a large amount of training of massive data and excellent AI technical support.

Coincidentally, Lanjian Intelligent, which has been deeply cultivated in the field of logistics technology for 30 years, has become a leader in the field of smart logistics. As early as 2021, Lanjian Intelligent, with its honeycomb intelligent warehousing system, became one of the enterprises selected by Jinan MIIT for the "New Generation of Artificial Intelligence Industry Innovation Key Task Units". And its "Honeycomb E-commerce 4.0 System" caused a sensation in the e-commerce industry once it came out, solving the technical difficulties of "finding people for goods". It once achieved a super efficiency of 12,000 boxes/hour on "Double Eleven", handling nearly 150,000 goods a day, and only 8 pickers. At present, the Lanjian intelligent honeycomb intelligent warehousing system has basically achieved full coverage in the e-commerce industry, and has successfully built the world’s largest "honeycomb" multi-wear system in the e-commerce industry. In the opinion of Wu Yaohua, founder and chairperson of Lanjian Intelligent, automation can fly higher and farther with intelligent wings.

From the scene, go to the scene. For artificial intelligence companies, it is crucial to accurately grasp the pain points of the industry, deeply empower the scene, and get through the "last mile". Many artificial intelligence companies in Jinan are focusing on the need for continuous empowerment in the industry.

Quancheng AI industry accelerates towards 50 billion level

As an important engine of industrial development and urban butterfly change, the artificial intelligence industry has become a field where various places have rushed to the beach. Jinan is also accelerating the pace of development of this industry and continues to carry out the "AI Spring City" empowering action.

In terms of industrial development logic, the growth of the artificial intelligence industry requires not only a deep understanding of industry pain points and application scenarios, but also technical support. Behind this, computing power, algorithms, data, etc. are all important factors.

From the current development of Jinan, in terms of basic layer, Jinan has become China’s computing power highland. The production and sales volume of servers is the first in the country and the second in the world, and the production and sales volume of AI servers is the first in the world. It supplies more than 1/3 of our country’s servers and more than 50% of AI computing power. In particular, the National Supercomputing Jinan Center has achieved complete autonomy and control of core technologies in the field of supercomputing. In terms of software technology, Jinan artificial intelligence core software technology is basically mature, and open APIs integrating vision, voice, interaction and other technologies have become the trend of industrial development.

Based on many development advantages, Jinan has become the national artificial intelligence innovation application pilot area, a new generation of artificial intelligence innovation and development pilot area, and a national industrial Internet demonstration area. The only city in the country where "three zones are superimposed". Such advantages help Jinan become a "depression" for resource gathering – the major ecological project "China Counting Valley" jointly built by provinces and cities has been landed in Jinan and is accelerating construction. The first phase of the park was put into use in the first half of this year. In the future, it will become a new highland for the computing power industry and a new beacon for the smart industry; Huawei’s three major innovation centers and regional headquarters, Baidu Shandong data annotation base and other projects have all landed in Jinan; artificial intelligence island accelerated construction…

At present in Jinan, the artificial intelligence industry has formed a relatively complete artificial intelligence industry chain from basic support, core technology to industry application. In 2022, Jinan has 358 artificial intelligence enterprises, and the scale of artificial intelligence core industries reached 27.10 billion yuan, an increase of 17.6% year-on-year, driving the scale of related industries to 100 billion. 11 companies were selected for the MIIT industry innovation key task list.

Under the trend of new technologies changing with each passing day, how can Jinan artificial intelligence industry achieve a greater leap?

As a senior expert in the field of artificial intelligence, Min Wanli suggested that "industrial AI" should drive "AI industrialization", encourage AI + leading enterprises to create new kinetic energy benchmarking applications, and replicate to the whole industry through service to form a pattern of "Shandong Germination National Blossom". In development, AI will be turned into a service, and the government will build an AI empower platform, where AI companies and entrepreneurs will serve industry customers and lower the non-technical threshold for AI popularization. Min Wanli said that industry experts and front-line practitioners can be trained as AI navigators and practitioners, and a "doctoral + graduate + engineer + industry expert" talent ecosystem can be built; in development, it is recommended to create sustainable green AI, encourage the miniaturization of large models, avoid paving the path of computing power, and get rid of dependence on high-end chips.

For the development of the AI industry, Jinan has drawn a blueprint, which will further promote the "computing power, algorithm, and arithmetic" industry to become stronger, better, and bigger. According to the plan, we will strive to double the development of Jinan’s AI core industry by 2025, reaching 50 billion level, and driving the scale of related industries to reach 200 billion level.

Celestial Auto took the "Rubik’s Cube Platform" to the Beijing Auto Show and asked M7 to refresh the sales record of China automobile brand single model.

  At the auto china, Cyrus Auto shared its self-innovative super-intelligent platform-Cyrus Rubik’s Cube Platform, which is versatile and capable of continuous evolution. It is reported that the platform takes "panoramic safety, multi-power, ever-changing space and intelligent guidance" as its core features, and realizes cross-domain integration of safety, power, chassis and software. In the era of smart electric vehicles, it aims to provide users with a "good, easy-to-use and super-safe" car experience. 

  At present, platform development has become the consensus of the new energy automobile industry-it can not only form diversified product combinations to develop different products, but also effectively save research and development cycle, improve research and development efficiency, and also form production scale effect to reduce costs. 

  In fact, the Rubik’s Cube platform is just one of many technical achievements accumulated by Celestial Automobile. As a representative enterprise of new quality productivity, Cyrus is committed to becoming a leading technology-based enterprise, and has been in a leading position in three-power technology, extended range technology, electronic and electrical architecture and super electric drive intelligent technology platform.

    

  Judging from the sales results, the technical strength of Cyrus has ushered in a "sword-shining" moment. In the first quarter of this year, the sales volume of Celestial vehicles reached 94,825, a year-on-year increase of 374.77%. AITO’s whole car delivery system reached 31,727 vehicles in March, of which 6,243 new cars were delivered by the car manufacturer M93 in March, ranking first in the sales volume of China’s new power vehicles with a price of more than 500,000 yuan, and firmly in the first-line camp with traditional luxury cars BBA and Tesla. 

  Based on the new development stage of new energy vehicles in China, the new energy vehicle enterprises in China, represented by Cyrus, are grasping the connotation of new quality productivity and accelerating the realization of quantitative change to qualitative change in the new energy vehicle industry. 

  Debut in auto china with Rubik’s Cube platform. 

  At 9: 00 on April 25th, auto china 2024 will officially open. As the "opening drama" of the automobile industry, the Beijing Auto Show, which has returned strongly after four years, will become a centralized display platform for automobile trends and product trends. It is understood that this year’s Beijing Auto Show is full of "technology, intelligence and new energy". For car companies, this opportunity of "brightening muscles and showing strength" is naturally not to be missed.

    

  As the main force of new energy transformation in the automobile industry, many independent brand head car companies will release new cars and the latest technological achievements at this auto show. Take Cyrus as an example. At the technology innovation strategy sharing meeting, Cyrus Rubik’s Cube platform, a super-intelligent platform with changeable and continuous evolution ability, was shared. The platform takes "panoramic safety, multi-power, ever-changing space and intelligent guidance" as its core features, and realizes cross-domain integration of safety, power, chassis and software. In the era of intelligent electric vehicles, it aims to provide users with a "easy-to-drive, easy-to-use and super-safe" car experience.

    

  It is understood that Cyrus "Rubik’s Cube Platform" can be compatible with different models such as cars, SUVs and MPVs at the same time, which will maximize its versatility. At the same time, it can be equipped with luxury configurations such as dual-cavity air springs and rear wheel steering, and its compatibility can meet the long-term technical development requirements in the future; In terms of power, the platform can also take into account the application of different power forms, such as super-increase, pure electricity and super-hybrid, and it is the only platform in the industry that can be compatible with these three power forms at present. With the continuous exploration of extended range technology, the thermal efficiency of Celeste Extended Range 5.0 system reaches 45%, and the oil-electricity conversion efficiency is as high as 3.65kWh/L, which is equivalent to 3.65 kWh of electricity generated by 1 liter of oil, which is at the leading level in the industry.

    

  In terms of safety, Sailis adheres to the concept that "safety is the greatest luxury" and applies the industry-first "panoramic safety" system on the Rubik’s Cube platform, which runs through the whole life cycle of users’ cars and makes users feel more at ease by combining hardware and software.

    

  The data shows that the derivative models built by the Rubik’s Cube platform have more sufficient technical verification and more reliable product quality, the development cycle can be directly shortened by 3 months, the cost can be effectively reduced by 15%, and the highest generalization rate of each system platform can reach more than 85%. 

  Throughout the new energy automobile industry, platform development has become the general trend. Improving the generalization rate of technologies and products through repeated reuse of core technologies or modular design of parts systems can not only form diversified product combinations to develop different products, but also effectively save the research and development cycle, improve the research and development efficiency, and also form production scale effect to reduce costs. 

  In addition to the Rubik’s Cube platform, in the list of invention patents published in 2023 by China Automobile and Information Technology Branch, the number of open patents increased by 407.76% year-on-year, ranking first in the independent vehicle group. Thanks to the deep accumulation of technical strength, Celestial Automobile is in a leading position in three electric technologies, extended range technology, electronic and electrical architecture and super electric drive intelligent technology platform, laying a technical foundation for the dual path of pure electric and extended range intelligent electric vehicles.

    

  In addition to continuous training in technical hard power, as a member of the brand of new energy vehicles, Cyrus clearly put forward the idea and path of "software-defined vehicles" earlier. In practice, Celeste drives product innovation with model innovation, firmly follows the road of "integration of intelligence and electricity" and promotes the development of new energy vehicles to intelligence and networking. 

  Zhang Xinghai, Chairman of Sailis Automobile, publicly stated that Sailis has always been firm: the road of intelligent and electric integration under the software-defined automobile is electrified, which is the carrier of intelligence, intelligence and the soul of electrification. 

  Sales in the first quarter surged by 374.77%. 

  After long-term technical precipitation, Cyrus already has the strength of "bright sword". 

  According to official data, in the first quarter of 2024, the sales volume of Celestial vehicles reached 94,825, a year-on-year increase of 374.77%. AITO delivered 31,727 vehicles in March, among which, the sales volume of the new M7 in Wenjie continued to grow steadily, with 24,598 new vehicles delivered in a single month, and the cumulative delivery volume on the market exceeded 120,000 vehicles, constantly setting a new record for the sales volume of a single car brand in China. In March, M9 delivered 6,243 new cars in a single month, ranking first in the sales volume of China New Power vehicles with a price of over 500,000 yuan. 

  With the rise of independent brands in China, represented by AITO, the market competition pattern of luxury brands is facing new changes. Since the beginning of this year, AITO has consistently ranked in the top five of the luxury brand list, and belongs to the first-line camp with traditional luxury cars BBA and Tesla.

    

  However, compared with more than 300 million fuel vehicles in China, the million-level annual sales of new energy vehicles are only a fraction, and the industry structure is far from solidified. For Cyrus, its intellectual strength needs to be constantly increased, and then it will evolve into the next stage of competitive advantage. 

  The Sailisi Auto Super Factory located in Chongqing will be an important carrier to increase the intellectual strength. It is understood that Sailis Auto Super Factory covers an area of 2,757 mu. As the world’s leading automobile super factory, Sailis Factory is built according to the international leading standards and industrial Internet requirements, realizing the interconnection of equipment data, achieving a complete vehicle off the assembly line in 30 seconds at the earliest, with the highest production efficiency in the world, and taking the lead in applying the industry-leading 9000T integrated die casting process, which can integrate 87 parts into one part and reduce the weight by 28%.

    

  According to the person in charge of the factory, the factory has more than 1,000 automation equipment, and more than 3,000 robots cooperate intelligently, and the number of robots ranks first in the industry. It can realize 100% automation of key processes, which is also a high level in the whole industry. At the same time, the factory also uses the industry’s first automatic quality testing technology. Through CT scanning of the whole vehicle, it can realize 100% whole vehicle experience and 100% full-size measurement. The test data is automatically uploaded to the cloud, forming "one car and one file". This factory has not only set a new benchmark for Cyrus, but also set a global benchmark for intellectual creation. 

  Cyrus’s "instant success" comes from the accumulation of money and thin hair. Seles, transliterated from the Greek word SERES, means the country of silk, symbolizing the east and luxury. What Cyrus wants to take is a "Silk Road" of high-end products, which is the openness and tolerance of China enterprises and the pattern and tolerance of going to the world. 

  At present, China’s new energy automobile industry is at the key node of "overtaking in changing lanes". In the global competition for the dominance of electric vehicles, Sailis will hopefully become a business card for China’s new energy automobile industry to show to the world.
