As long as 9.9 yuan is needed, who can resist the "temptation" of beautiful photos? After ChatGPT, a new AI screen-level application, "Miaoya Camera", was once again on fire, and it still appeared on most people’s favorite selfies. Many users waited in line for several days, which once caused the server to be paralyzed …
It turns out that "Miaoya Camera" is a photo generation tool based on AI technology. After adding a personal front photo, upload 20 photos and pay 9.9 yuan, you can have your own digital avatar; Then, choose different styles in the template, and you can quickly generate personal photo.
In recent years, with the explosion of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AIGC), not only has there been a "storm" on the network platform, but this wave has also begun to sweep across all walks of life related to content production, which has also driven some industries with high digitization and rich content requirements to take the lead in making breakthroughs in scene application. Many Hunan enterprises are actively embracing AIGC and exploring new opportunities for industry development.
An application "Miaoya Camera" is "over the top"
Searching for the discussion about "Miaoya camera" on the Internet, the word with the highest frequency is "good-looking". Most users are also eager to show their good looks on social networks. Therefore, the popularity of AIGC technology has begun to provide a lower threshold for "beautiful photos".
According to public information, the target population of China photo market will exceed 200 million in 2023, and more and more people are willing to pay for personalized photo.
If you take a photo online, consumers usually have to pay a high price. The reporter searched for "photo" keywords on the e-commerce platform, and most shops were divided into 500 ~ 2,000 yuan, 2,000 ~ 4,000 yuan, and then more than 4,000 yuan. Relatively speaking, cutting-edge photography institutions such as "Innocent Blue" and "Hippocampus", which are at the lowest level, still need a price of 200 ~ 800 yuan.
Compared with the high price of stores, "Miaoya Camera" only needs 9.9 yuan to get a set of cost-effective photo, which makes consumers eager to try.
After trying out the program, the reporter found that it is expected to take 4 hours and 15 minutes to generate photos, showing that there are 2076 people in front of them. According to this time and the number of people, each person’s production time is about 10 minutes.
Gao Qi Zhen, a college student, generated her photo and sent it to her circle of friends. She told reporters that many friends in her comment area said that the similarity was very high, and some students said that the appearance was far from each other. On social platforms, many users share the photo generated by Miaoya, and they will attach a sentence: "The photo generated is really beautiful, but it is not quite like me when you look closely."
The explosion of AIGC application also reflects the increasingly mature application of AI big model technology. The reporter found that it is precisely because AIGC can generate data content in different modes quickly and flexibly that it has gradually become a new engine for the innovation and development of digital content.
An emerging application scenario in one direction has been accelerated.
From generating copywriting to painting, composing music, writing papers, and even now, you can produce photos and digital people in two places … With the practical application of AIGC gradually entering the public’s field of vision, it has driven subversive changes in various fields and brought more imagination to the life of every ordinary person.
A number of companies began to compete to enter the AIGC track. For example, Baidu launched "ERNIE Bot", a tool that allows users to obtain interactive search results; Iflytek launched "iFLYTEK Spark", which not only has strong knowledge answering ability, but also helps users to generate high-quality articles and reports.
In fact, in recent years, the application scenarios of artificial intelligence technology in Changsha have also continued to expand. Some industries with high degree of digitalization and rich content demand have also taken the lead in making breakthroughs in scene application.
In the industrial field, Zhongke Yungu uses "big model+industry knowledge" and "big model+multi-AI application" to build an AI "auxiliary cockpit" and realize the application of intelligent management, intelligent scheduling, intelligent production, intelligent warehousing, intelligent diagnosis, intelligent service and other vertical business fields based on big model.
In the medical field, Wisdom Eye released the large model of multi-modal medical artificial intelligence, and adopted the technical route of combining knowledge map with large model. Compared with the simple use of large model technology under the condition of 50 billion parameters, the accuracy of answering medical questions was improved by nearly 10%.
In the field of cultural tourism, Hunan Wenwu Technology has been deeply involved in the innovative research and development of application scenarios of "culture+technology+industry", and the "Digital Virtual Interactive Experience Project of Cultural Relics" created by its team won the first national prize of the "Meta-Universe+Data Application" track of the 2023 World Artificial Intelligence Conference-National Digital Business Competition.
A fertile soil helps cutting-edge scientific and technological achievements take root.
The rapid development of artificial intelligence drives the evolutionary iteration of enterprise products.
The reporter found that in Mango TV’s newly upgraded variety show "Full Acceleration 2023", the game setting of "Accelerated City" was introduced, and VR (Virtual Reality) content was organically combined with virtual shooting. In this regard, the person in charge of multimedia algorithm of Mango TV Intelligent Algorithm Department said that this kind of shooting is the first time in China, and most of the space scenes are drawn by AIGC and then processed by designers, thus greatly improving the production efficiency of products.
Digital man and meta-universe are in the ascendant. When it comes to AIGC, Malanshan has taken the lead. In the 2023 China New Media Conference, there was a summit forum on "AIGC Development and Opportunities" to discuss how the video cultural and creative industry can be deeply integrated with AIGC.
In this regard, Zhou Suyue, chief technical expert of Malanshan (Changsha) Video Creative Park, said that by 2022, Malanshan had formed a complete chain in the field of meta-universe. "The content ecology is AIGC, the infrastructure ecology is a big model, and the blockchain and AI rendering have built a complete ecosystem model." It is noteworthy that the original AIGC production line in Malanshan was awarded the first prize of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television in October 2022 after it was produced in March 2020.
At the Yuelu Summit of the Internet in 2023, Tobee Wu, Chairman of Wanxing Technology, said that in the AIGC era, the big model will be used as an infrastructure to empower thousands of industries and help the rapid development and iterative launch of software products. Just last month, Wanxing Technology and Xiangjiang Laboratory joined hands to build Web3.0 and Meta-Universe Innovation Research Institute. In the future, the two sides will jointly promote the transformation of talents, technologies and application achievements in key directions such as AIGC and Web3.0.
Algorithms, computing power, data and scenarios are the four major elements of developing AIGC industry. At present, Changsha is making every effort to build a global R&D center city. At present, Changsha has the opportunity to seize the development opportunity of AIGC industry, fully promote the digital economy of Changsha to a higher level, and let more cutting-edge scientific and technological achievements take root by virtue of the advantages of video creative industry scene represented by Malanshan, computing talents represented by Xiangjiang Laboratory and computing power represented by National Supercomputing Changsha Center and Changsha Artificial Intelligence Innovation Center.

These bad habits are indispensable to the "bane" of thrombosis.

  Li Kang, deputy chief physician of the Department of Cardiology, Beijing Hospital, said that about 60.5% of the deaths from coronary heart disease and stroke among adults over 20 years old in China were attributed to the failure to reach several ideal cardiovascular health indicators, namely smoking and drinking, body mass index, physical activity, diet, blood pressure, total cholesterol and fasting blood sugar. If you try to correct it in your daily life, you can completely avoid the disease.

  Thrombosis "Ghost" Wandering in the Body

  Liu Changwei, director of vascular surgery at Peking Union Medical College Hospital, said that thrombosis is no stranger to everyone. Thrombosis is a "blood clot" in blood vessels, which blocks the passage of blood vessels in various parts of the body like a plug, resulting in no blood supply to related organs, resulting in sudden disability or death.

  Coagulation system and fibrinolysis system exist in human blood. Under normal circumstances, the two maintain a dynamic balance to ensure the normal flow of blood in blood vessels and will not form thrombosis. Under special circumstances, such as hardening, stenosis and injury of blood vessels, excessive sweating, low blood pressure and lack of drinking water, the blood flow will be slow, the blood will be concentrated and viscous, and the coagulation function will be hyperactive or the fibrinolytic function will be weakened, which will break this balance and make people in a "state of easy embolism".

  Liu Changwei pointed out that the deep vein of the lower extremity is a place where thrombosis is more likely to occur. Although the consequences of vein blockage caused by thrombus are serious, what is even more terrible is that the thrombus falls off, which is a deadly bomb. Once the deep venous thrombosis of lower limbs falls off, it will follow the blood circulation route: inferior vena cava — Right atrium — Right ventricle — Pulmonary artery, and finally cause pulmonary embolism. If the lung loses the function of blood gas exchange, it will cause acute hypoxia and even acute cardiopulmonary failure. If it is not corrected and intervened in time in the acute stage, it will even be fatal.

  There are deep veins in human body, and deep veins bear more than 90% of venous blood reflux. Once deep venous thrombosis occurs, the most direct consequence is that the blood reflux is seriously hindered, and the limbs are swollen and painful. In severe cases, the limbs are necrotic and need amputation. However, many people don’t know enough about deep vein thrombosis and embolism, and they don’t have enough awareness of prevention. When there is typical edema of lower limbs, it will not only bring difficulties to treatment, but also easily leave sequelae. At this time, the patient will suddenly have swelling, pain and increased tension of soft tissue in the affected limb, which is often aggravated after the activity, but it can be relieved by raising the affected limb. However, if the blocked part is located in the "main traffic road", and the treatment is not timely, it will cause serious symptoms and even threaten life.

  Another serious hazard of deep venous thrombosis of lower limbs is post-thrombotic syndrome. Once deep venous thrombosis of lower limbs is formed, it is difficult to be effectively removed without standardized treatment. These thrombosis will not only hinder blood return, but also cause repeated swelling of limbs, leading to black skin ulceration, varicose veins of lower limbs, and even old rotten legs. Deep vein thrombosis is like a deep-water bomb lurking in blood vessels. At first, it may have no obvious clinical symptoms or be ignored because of mild symptoms, but once it is detonated, the consequences are unimaginable.

  How to judge whether you are at risk?

  Thrombosis in the legs and lungs can occur in people of any age. Some people don’t have some warning signs or symptoms. Therefore, it is very important for everyone to know which risk factors, signs, specific events or conditions can cause or trigger the formation of thrombosis.

  Long-term hospitalization will lead to leg thrombosis in more than 2/3 patients. This is the leading cause of preventable hospital deaths.

  Surgery, especially hip or knee surgery and cancer surgery, will bring greater risks to patients.

  Don’t exercise for a long time: for example, not standing up or walking around when you need to stay in bed or travel for a long time will also increase your risk.

  Other uncontrollable risk factors include:

  Pregnant women: If pregnant women are obese or hyperlipidemia, it will make the blood sticky; If there are varicose veins and pregnancy, the risk of venous thrombosis will be higher. You can’t take medicine casually during pregnancy. At this time, wearing elastic socks (varicose socks) is a very good way to prevent edema of lower limbs.

  Old age: The risk of an 80-year-old person is five to six times that of a 40-year-old person.

  Family history: family members have had thrombosis, which will increase the risk of venous thrombosis.

  Obesity: the risk of venous thromboembolism in obese people is 2 to 3 times that of non-obese people.

  Change seven habits to prevent 60% vascular disease

  Quit smoking. When smoking, nicotine and other harmful substances in tobacco will stimulate the vascular movement center and stimulate the release of adrenaline and norepinephrine in the body, causing the heart rate to increase, peripheral blood vessels to contract and blood pressure to rise. Therefore, we should try our best not to smoke and stay away from second-hand smoke.

  Weight control. Daily diet, to ensure a reasonable mix of carbohydrates, protein and fat, can meet the needs of the body, and try not to exceed the upper limit of calories. At the same time, we should eat less fried food, convenience food and fast food with high calorie.

  Exercise regularly. Exercise can improve blood circulation, obviously reduce blood lipid, blood pressure and weight, and also relieve stress and enjoy body and mind. It is suggested that the exercise time and intensity should be determined according to their age, gender and physical strength. Generally, you can do more aerobic exercises such as jogging, brisk walking, swimming and cycling for 30 minutes at a time, at least 5 times a week, and the heart rate and age after exercise should be no more than 170. The best exercise state is that the body sweats slightly, does not feel tired, and feels relaxed after exercise.

  Eat reasonably. A greasy diet will lead to an increase in blood lipids, and excessive blood lipids attached to blood vessels will cause atherosclerosis, which in turn will lead to thrombosis. It is suggested that the daily diet should reduce the intake of salt, sugar, saturated fat and trans fat, and eat more low-calorie foods rich in minerals, vitamins, cellulose and other nutrients, such as vegetables, fruits, coarse grains, lean meat, fish or low-fat dairy products.

  Control blood pressure. When blood pressure is high, the impact of blood flow on blood vessels increases, which damages the endothelial function of arteries and is easy to cause arteriosclerosis. Many people naturally have dilated arteries or aneurysms. Once the blood pressure suddenly rises and the aneurysm ruptures, it will cause cerebral hemorrhage. Therefore, blood pressure should be controlled below 140/90 mm Hg. It is suggested that everyone eat less salt at ordinary times, control it within 6 grams per person per day, use more cooking methods such as cooking, and use less seasonings such as soy sauce and monosodium glutamate. Children and adolescents should also pay attention to blood pressure monitoring and prevention.

  Control blood lipid. When the bad cholesterol in the blood increases, it is easy to deposit on the blood vessel wall and form plaques, and even block blood vessels and form thrombosis, leading to acute myocardial infarction or cerebral infarction. It is suggested that the diet should be based on the principle of less oil, and eat less animal viscera, animal fat and sweets, especially foods containing trans fatty acids, such as cream and butter.

  Reduce blood sugar. Under the action of long-term hyperglycemia, arterial endothelial cells are easy to be damaged, and the permeability of vascular wall will become worse, and lipids are easy to deposit on vascular endothelium, which will lead to vascular stenosis and cause coronary heart disease, cerebral infarction and other diseases. It is suggested to eat more foods rich in dietary fiber, such as carrots, celery, oats, oranges, etc., which can delay the absorption of sugar in the intestine.

  Three ways to stay away from thrombosis

  Can move early, not late. Wang Chen, chairman of the Respiratory Branch of Chinese Medical Association and academician of China Academy of Engineering, said that there are many cases of pulmonary embolism caused by elderly people playing mahjong all night and young people playing computer for a long time, and when they feel numb in their legs, they may have thrombosis. He suggested starting exercise as soon as possible before thrombosis.

  Can take the initiative and not be passive. When taking a long-distance plane, most people will choose economy class. Because of the narrow space and limited leg activity area, deep vein thrombosis may occur. This situation is called "economy class syndrome". Even in business class and first class, if you don’t take the initiative, venous thrombosis may occur. Wang Chen suggested that you always stretch your toes and hook your toes when flying, stretch your legs and muscles, and drink plenty of water at the same time to increase urination while diluting your blood.

  Can move a lot. Li Xiaoying, chairman of the Geriatrics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and professor of geriatrics at the PLA General Hospital, said that some patients are afraid of wound pain and oozing blood, so they don’t move or move less, which will increase the risk of venous thrombosis. Old people who are usually weak and have low back and leg pain usually have little activity, and they are even more reluctant to exercise once they are sick. Doctors should mobilize patients to exercise and instruct them to prevent falls. Patients who really can’t move on their own can receive massage according to the doctor’s advice first, and exercise properly in bed after their physical condition allows.

  Li Xiaoying reminded that massage is not recommended for patients with thrombus, otherwise it may aggravate the condition.

  Drinking water at five moments to prevent thrombosis

  After getting up. Morning is the time when physiological blood pressure rises, platelet activity increases, and after a night’s sleep, urination, skin evaporation and mouth and nose breathing make a lot of water lose and blood viscosity increase. Xia Pengbin, a nutritionist in the Clinical Nutrition Department of Zhongda Hospital affiliated to Southeast University, said that drinking water after getting up can help reduce blood viscosity, thus reducing the risk of thrombosis. Generally speaking, milk, fruit juice, ice water and salt water are not suitable for drinking as the first glass of water in the morning, and warm boiled water is the best choice.

  Before and after morning exercise. Many people are used to drinking water after morning exercise. Xia Pengbin reminded that a small amount of water should be drunk before morning exercise, which can reduce the risk of dehydration and blood viscosity caused by exercise, thus helping to prevent thrombosis. When the temperature is high, the speed of water shortage will also accelerate, and many people are used to drinking water in big gulps. However, you should not drink water too fast in summer, and you should drink a small amount of water many times, usually 150 ml to 200 ml. If you drink water too fast, water will quickly enter the blood and be absorbed in the intestine, which will dilute the blood, increase the blood volume and make the heart bad. Especially people with coronary heart disease will have chest tightness, shortness of breath and other symptoms, which may seriously lead to myocardial infarction.

  Half an hour after dinner. Don’t drink water immediately after meals, otherwise it will dilute saliva and gastric juice, weaken the activity of protease and affect digestion and absorption. It is recommended to drink water for half an hour after meals, about 200 ml, which is helpful to alleviate the increase of blood viscosity after meals. But drink it in small sips, or frequent and large amounts of water will easily burn your heart. People who are prone to heartburn should drink 3-4 sips every 20-30 minutes 2-3 hours after meals.

  Before work. Office workers often neglect drinking water because of their busy eight-hour work, which provides an opportunity for the invasion of blood clots. It is suggested that these people develop the habit of drinking a few mouthfuls of water before work. One paper cup is enough, and don’t drink too much, otherwise it is easy to "urinate urgently" on the way to work.

  Before going to bed. You should take two sips of water before going to bed. Because when people are asleep, the water in the body will be lost, resulting in a decrease in water in the blood and a higher blood viscosity. Drinking some water properly before going to bed can alleviate this phenomenon, thus reducing the risk of cerebral thrombosis. In addition, it is best for the elderly to keep a glass of water at the bedside before going to bed, and drink a few mouthfuls immediately when they feel thirsty.

  Four early signs of thrombosis in the elderly

  With the increase of age, the vascular elasticity of the elderly is getting worse and worse. Thrombosis is easy to form when vascular endothelium is damaged, blood flow velocity slows down and blood viscosity increases. Thrombosis, popularly speaking, is a "blood clot", which, like a plug, blocks the vascular channels in all parts of the body, forming myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, lower extremity arterial swelling, pulmonary embolism, etc., and seriously endangering the lives of the elderly. Thrombosis is harmful, but there are some obvious early signs.

  1. Drooling while sleeping. Many old people drool when they sleep, most of which is normal. However, if it is found that the saliva of the elderly often flows in one direction, it is necessary to be vigilant and may have cerebral thrombosis. Because thrombosis can cause some muscle dysfunction in the throat, and when the human body loses its active control over the muscles in sleep, saliva will flow down. If the elderly often drool when sleeping, they should go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible, even if there are no symptoms such as skewed mouth and lax eye closure.

  2. Dizziness after getting up early. Before the onset of cerebral thrombosis, 70% patients will have dizziness symptoms, which usually occur after getting up in the morning. If the elderly have more dizziness within 3 days, or often have dizziness after hard work, it is necessary to consider whether it is caused by thrombosis. Especially for the elderly with hypertension, we should pay more attention to it. If dizziness occurs more than 5 times a day, you should go to the hospital for examination in time.

  3. numbness and swelling of hands and feet. If the elderly feel numbness and swelling in their legs for a long time, it may be caused by blood clots flowing into the arteries. When embolism is formed, this part of the muscle will be ischemic, the skin will become pale, the body temperature will drop, and even the artery on the back of the foot will not be touched. After a long time, the legs are prone to swelling and severe pain. Therefore, for sudden numbness of hands and feet, we must be highly alert to cerebrovascular diseases. If it is delayed, it may not only miss the best treatment opportunity, but also leave sequelae.

  4. Chest tightness and pain. Many elderly people do not exercise or stay in bed for a long time, which is prone to chest tightness and chest pain. Because in the early stage of thrombosis, clots are very easy to appear in blood vessels. If they fall and flow into the lungs with blood, patients will feel chest tightness and pain. Once pulmonary embolism is formed, it is very similar to the symptoms of a heart attack. With the pain of breathing, the pain will gradually increase, and it is usually stinging or sharp pain. Therefore, there is pain and chest tightness in the chest, which needs to be vigilant.

  Eating more seaweed and beans, especially broccoli, auricularia and other foods rich in soluble fiber, is helpful to lower cholesterol, prevent vascular injury, delay atherosclerosis and reduce the risk of coronary heart disease and stroke. In addition, we should pay attention to cold and warmth, quit smoking and drinking, develop good living habits, and adjust our mood to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

  Cerebral thrombosis has omen.

  1. The mouth and eyes are askew or drooling. For example, one side of the face is weak or numb, when you smile, you find your mouth crooked, or when you brush your teeth, your mouth can’t hold water, or even drool.

  2. Unilateral limb weakness, that is, "hemiplegia", can be divided into upper limb weakness and lower limb weakness. The performance of upper limb weakness is that when shaving with a knife, I suddenly feel that my arm is weak and the razor falls to the ground; Can’t use chopsticks to clip vegetables smoothly; Can’t button up, get dressed, etc. Weakness of lower limbs can be manifested as leaning to one side, "wandering" and even "dragging legs" when walking; Unstable walking and abnormal gait; Unconsciously falling down repeatedly when walking, especially when turning your head and looking up. The above situation should pay attention to the possibility of further developing into cerebral thrombosis.

  3. I can’t speak neatly. Speak hard, "Lickitung" or don’t understand others.

  4. blurred vision. Because the artery supplying blood to the eyes is blocked, or the brain center responsible for analyzing vision is damaged, the patient may suddenly lose sight of one eye.

  5. Sudden dizziness. This is a very common signal of cerebral thrombosis, which is manifested as dizziness, feeling stuffy in the head, and even feeling dizzy, unstable and uncontrollable. In severe cases, it may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting and sweating. This is because there is an abnormality in the part of the brain responsible for coordinating body balance.

  6. numbness in the limbs. Especially the numbness of the unilateral body is often a warning of cerebral thrombosis. Because the brain is not only responsible for the movement of limbs, but also for all senses, abnormal sensation is often a sign of cerebral thrombosis.

  7. Love to be sleepy, sleepy or yawning. For example, watching favorite TV programs can make you fall asleep, lose concentration, yawn constantly, etc., suggesting that the blood supply to the brain is not enough to stay awake, which may be that the artery is narrow or even occluded.

  8. Headache. Unexplained headaches, or changes in the nature of the original headaches, are mostly manifested as persistent pain, which may be accompanied by nausea and vomiting in severe cases.

  9. Cough and dysphagia. When eating or drinking water, you may choke and even swallow hard, which may be accompanied by unclear speech and hoarseness, suggesting that the nerve or center responsible for the muscle movement of the throat is abnormal.

  10. Sudden memory loss and difficulty in reading and writing. Some patients suddenly can’t name people or things, can’t calculate or write normally, or always forget things. This suggests that the cerebral cortex responsible for advanced thinking is abnormal.

  5 actions to prevent venous thrombosis

  Toe movement: Sit, put your toes on the ground, try to keep them level with your ankles, and drive your feet up and down 10 to 15 times with your toes as the fulcrum.

  Massage the calf: The left leg bends naturally, bending down and gently massaging the calf with the left hand for 10 to 15 times, and changing the right leg in turn can effectively promote the blood circulation of the calf.

  Heel movement: Sit, keep your feet on the ground, as close as possible to your ankles, and drive your feet up and down with the heel as the fulcrum. When moving up, try to get close to your ankles and repeat 10 to 15 times.

  Knee-hugging rotation: Sit, hold the left knee with both hands, rotate the foot to the left for 5 to 10 times and to the right for 5 to 10 times with the ankle as the fulcrum, and repeat the same action with the right foot.

[National Model Worker] Stick to it for 28 years, and pursue the ingenuity of every inch-State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council

Walking into the Great Hall of the People, Zhang Xin stopped crying three times.

When the party and state leaders appear in front of us; When the national anthem is played, everyone stands up; When I heard that "the model worker is the elite of the nation, the model of the people and the hero of the Republic." Zhang Xin stopped crying. "That kind of feeling is really … I dare not think about it. It is affirmed by the country and the people, and all the efforts are worth it." Recalling the scene at that time, he was still very excited.

Zhang Xinting is a senior fitter technician of China North-West Ordnance Industry Group. His job is to make measuring tools to test the accuracy of various parts in ammunition production.

From "Shaanxi Chief Technician" to "National Technical Expert", from provincial and municipal model workers to national model workers … Zhang Xindian, 48, has been working as a locksmith for 28 years. He has been studying, striving and striving for perfection in his beloved career with simplicity, rigor and persistence for decades.

Zhangxinting

From impatience to Excellence

-set standards for yourself, just to be infinitely close to the perfection in your heart

Being kind to others and being strict with yourself is the first impression Zhang Xindong left.

In 1992, 20-year-old Zhang Xinting entered the factory to learn locksmith skills with his master. "At that time, the master asked me to change the measuring tool, and the error after the change was only 0.01 mm, but the master was not satisfied and gave me a lecture." Zhang Xinting was deeply shocked by the master’s Excellence in his work and zero tolerance for errors.

In 1995, Zhang stopped participating in the skill competition held by the unit for the first time. He was determined to win, but in the end he only won a commemorative award. This "defeat" made Zhang Xin stop to see his own shortcomings, and from then on, he practiced hard and constantly put forward demands and weights for himself. After repeated practice over a long period of time, Zhang Xin-stop’s skill is becoming more and more mature.

"On one occasion, our team received a difficult and time-tight job, and the machining accuracy of the workpiece required to reach three thousandths of a millimeter. When the master was away, I had to bite the bullet. " Looking for information, grinding tools, and repeatedly debugging … After working in front of the bench for more than ten hours, Zhang Xin stopped and finally completed the task with a high standard.

There is a jargon in the mechanical processing industry: "Turner is afraid of car poles, fitter is afraid of drilling holes, and planer is afraid of planing boards." This sentence truly reflects the difficulty of the fitter’s drilling. Because the drill rod is thin and easy to deform, if you don’t master the strength well when drilling, it is easy to exceed the tolerance.

"Our products have high wear resistance and density, and the cost is also high. If the operating drilling machine fails to meet the accuracy standard, it will be time-consuming, laborious and costly. " In order to save costs and master the accuracy of hand feeling, Zhang stopped trying to punch holes in eggs.

From the first touch, it was broken, and later, a drill bit with a speed of more than 2,000 revolutions per second was used to break the shell and drill holes to stop at the egg film. Zhang Xin stopped remembering how many days and nights he practiced and how many eggs he spent drilling. The unique skill of "the egg drilling film is not broken" not only solves the technical problem of drilling a 0.4 mm flat-bottomed deep hole for high-hardness tungsten alloy on a common drilling machine, but also becomes a compulsory test item for entering the "Zhangxin Stop Studio".

After practicing day and night, Zhang Xin-stop’s "manual work" became more and more exquisite. Before he was 30 years old, he became a technician. He participated in many national, provincial and ministerial skill competitions and returned home with full load.

"Every time he finishes the competition, I feel that he is demanding more of himself." Wife Wang Xiaohui said.

Today, the unit of measurement in Zhang Xin’s eyes is only a few thousandths of a millimeter, which is equivalent to one sixtieth of a hair. Even though most of the handwork has been replaced by mechanization and automation, when it comes to high-precision and complicated parts processing, it is still necessary to rely on Zhang Xin’s hands to solve what the machine can’t do.

"If the machine can work to one thousandth, we will work to one thousandth." Zhang Xin stopped talking.

"Why are you so strict and demanding on yourself?"

"I have a’ bad habit’ in my work and always want to do my work to the extreme." Zhang Xin stopped and said that we must be meticulous to avoid mistakes. The smallest discrepancy will lead to accidents during the target test.

During his 28-year working career, Zhang Xin-ting has produced nearly 10,000 exquisite and meticulous measuring tools with different shapes, and the one that impressed him the most is the chamber-closing gauge used to measure ammunition.

"As long as the ammunition passes through the chamber-closing gauge, it can be applied to all guns of the same type." Zhang Xindong said that if the size of the chamber gauge is deviated, it will affect the hit rate, and the heavy one may cause casualties.

For a long time, the accuracy of the bore gauge has been a key project in the factory. In order to overcome this problem, Zhang Xinting led the team to make many attempts to continuously improve the machining accuracy. "We all grind a little bit by hand, then measure and grind again …" Zhang Xindong said that at that time, it was really stressful, tight time and heavy task, but it inspired his determination.

Perseverance, the stone can be carved. With excellent technology, Zhang Xin stopped leading the team, debugging and assembling again and again, constantly improving and perfecting, and finally solved a series of problems in the assembly and processing of the bore gauge. The "assembly adjustment and assembly method" of the measuring tool was also named "advanced operation method for employees in Shaanxi Province".

Zhang Xin-stop at work

"Pass on"

-teach skills without reservation, be kind and do things diligently.

"No matter how good a person’s technology is, he can only contribute a part to the enterprise, but if everyone is brought together, the influence will be great." Speaking of the spirit of "mentoring", Zhang Xinting said.

When he first entered the factory, Zhang Xin stopped with a master. Now, he has become a master of many people. "This industry is promising!" This is the highest frequency sentence that Zhang Xindong said to his disciples.

"The master is usually very gentle with us, but as long as it is related to work, he becomes very strict and can’t tolerate any carelessness." In the eyes of disciple An Huijun, Zhang Xinding is both a good friend and a strict teacher. In addition to admiring the master’s superb skills, his quality of doing things makes Xiao An sincerely respect him.

"Technology practice, always improve. But my master can get so many honors, which is inseparable from the hard work, rigor, kindness and enthusiasm he has always adhered to. After following the master for so many years, I found that he has not changed. He is the benchmark for our study. "

In recent years, Zhang Xin stopped bringing out more than a dozen apprentices, many of whom have become the pillars of the enterprise. One of the apprentices won the first prize twice in the First and Second Skills Competition of Northwest Industrial Group, and participated in provincial and ministerial skills competitions on behalf of the company for many times.

Compared with the apprentices’ admiration, in the eyes of his wife, Wang Xiaohui, he was more distressed and considerate of Zhang Xinding. "The commendation meeting ended on the 24th, and Lao Zhang went to the studio early in the morning on the 25th."

Zhang Xingting and Wang Xiaohui are both workers and husband and wife. They have been married for more than 20 years. His enthusiasm and persistence are the deepest impression he left on his wife. Talking about her husband’s honor, Wang Xiaohui said that we are colleagues, and we can especially understand the hardships and difficulties of her husband along the way.

"What are your expectations for Zhang Xin’s future?"

"Do a good job and do as well as you can." Wang Xiaohui said quietly.

After hearing the expectation, Zhang Xin stopped smiling and looked at his wife and said, "If I am the gatekeeper of ammunition, that moment will be the gatekeeper of my measuring tools."

How to better "pass on the help"? Zhang Xinding also has his own plans.

"The original intention of the studio was to tackle scientific research projects that were difficult and stuck in the neck. Now the studio also shoulders the task of’ passing the band’. "

As a model worker, Zhang Xinting not only demands himself with high standards, but also plays the role of an example to lead his disciples to overcome difficulties. Since he founded the studio in 2013, he has jointly solved more than 60 scientific research problems for enterprises.

"They saw my persistence and acquisition, and they also had a clear plan for their future. Stick to your post and do your own thing. "

Zhang xinting’s working environment

The power of persistence

-working in an ordinary post and creating extraordinary achievements

In an ordinary post, the pursuit of Excellence and persistent persistence are the inexhaustible motive force for Zhang Xinting to create extraordinary achievements.

"Forty-four locksmith students in our class were assigned to the factory, and now I am still doing this." Zhang Xinting recalled, "I am a very ordinary worker, from the initial participation in the company’s internal competition to the later participation in the national competition; From the youngest technician in the unit to the craftsman in a big country, these honors are inseparable from persistence. I think it is very important to insist on doing one thing well and doing one thing to the extreme. "

The cupboard of "Zhang Xin Stop Studio" is full of the awards he won. As one of the few senior technicians who enjoy the special allowance of the State Council, Zhang Xinting, who is honored, doesn’t feel anything special about himself.

"Many old masters are unknown officers, and they never care about anything, but what they do matches their personality. This is a place worth learning."

"How do you understand and treat the spirit of model workers?"

"First of all, we must love our work. Only when we love it can we devote ourselves wholeheartedly. Secondly, we must be willing to contribute, so that we can lead everyone to grow together. " Zhang Xinding said: "Although I was rated as a model worker, I will not be proud of it and relax my demands on myself. I will continue to learn, hone and innovate in the future. "

"Those who are not lazy are also teachers of good deeds." Zhang Xinting, who is in an ordinary post, has created extraordinary achievements and explained the strength of persistence through his persistent efforts and diligent study.

"My job is very ordinary." In the communication with Zhang Xinting, this is what he said the most.

"Spring Flower Flame" is talking about a new love! Liu Xueyi Wu Jinyan pulled wildly, and the heat of setting files soared.

After two suspense dramas made the audience addicted, Youku platform released the ancient puppet drama "Spring Flower Flame" again.After all, in the early stage of the platform, it attracted many potential audiences by relying on the ancient puppet dramas that won the plot. In addition, the two platforms next door are broadcasting ancient puppet dramas, so it is not impossible to get together in a timely manner.Besides, nanaya snow by iQiyi and Splendid Peace by Tencent have different plot styles and low audience overlap, but both of them have serious injuries that cannot be ignored.Perhaps because of this, the data of these two dramas on various platforms are very general and the trend is not good.

Like "nanaya snow", it is a martial arts style with strong men and women, beautiful and romantic. Unfortunately, because the director’s skill is not very good, he can’t make full use of the real scene at all, which leads to a great discount on the effect of filming.Let the audience who have seen the play call "advance notice fraud" and "false propaganda"."Splendid Peace" is the intrigue of the women in the back house, and the tactics are a little childish, and the male acting and female face value are slightly discouraged.The genre of Spring Flower Flame is quite special.Its original work is too bumpy, which leads to the abnormal situation of the male and female hosts after the adaptation of the plot, and the emotional line of love and killing each other is very emotional.

It can be said that "Spring Flower Flame" accurately attacked the audience’s preference for watching drama to some extent, and now it has a great win at this time.First of all, the setting of the two crazy groups is very interesting. In addition, the setting of the report and the female assassin makes the feelings of men and women full of unequal status and highly oriented pulling factors from the beginning.. Secondly, the makeup of Spring Flower Flame is very good.Liu Xueyi, the male actor, plays the black prince Murong Jinghe, whose beauty has reached a new height. Wu Jinyan, the hostess, joined the group only after receiving professional acting training. The chemical reaction between the hostess and the hostess is worth looking forward to.

Although the original novel "Spring Flower Flame" belongs to the ancient novel of abusing women, there are many unreasonable plots in it, but the general love between men and women is really impressive.When the novel was adapted, many netizens who had read the book were shocked.As far as the story of the female host bleeding to save the male host, being given a personal eunuch by the male host, digging up the female host’s body and putting on affectionate feelings can be filmed, which is rare in a more inclusive online environment, let alone film and television?Therefore, netizens who understand the development of the original plot of "Spring Flower Flame" are very curious.

The screenwriter "How can we change it to keep the original emotional pull while getting rid of unreasonable content?" There will really be an audience who will open the play out of curiosity. As for whether the audience can be retained, it depends on the screenwriter’s skills and the actors’ acting skills.Perhaps because of the influence of the original work, all the actors contacted by the play at first were euphemistically rejected, and finally they came to Liu Xueyi and Wu Jinyan.The data of these two people starring in the drama this year are all beautiful, their costumes are also good, and they look good in the preview, so the popularity of "Spring Flower Flame" soared after it was finalized.

Up to now, the reading volume of the entry of the file is nearly 30 million. On October 12, the official announcement of the file was announced, and the heat in the station exceeded 4,000. On October 13, the materials were released continuously, and the heat in the station exceeded 5,000.This shows how high the audience’s expectations for "Spring Flower Flame" are. If the plot is as powerful as the preview at the beginning, then it seems that there is no problem to break 9000 on the first day of broadcasting. In fact,The reason why the expectation value of "Spring Flower Flame" is so high is that besides the interesting plot and the proper marketing, there is another reason: two actors, Liu Xueyi and Wu Jinyan.

Over the years, Liu Xueyi has also played a lot of edged male roles in the drama. Although most of them are online and have a bright performance, they have not really attracted attention. It seems that the signing agency is not so keen on this actor. It took two years to finally get better and have a male role, and they have all performed very well.Especially in this year’s "Flower Order", Liu Xueyi and Keiko Zheng made the audience satisfied because of the performance of just two episodes, and directly set up CP regardless of the life and death of the female lead.There are even many viewers who say that it is for these two talents to see the drama.

It’s also amazing that a mere friendship starring directly overwhelms the hostess.Even some irrational CP powder ran to the social platform in Liu Xueyi, indicating that he and Keiko Zheng have a high degree of fitness, so he should be sensible and cooperate with Keiko Zheng in business to make some sugar for CP powder. At that time, the drama was in the hit period. How could the male host give up the official CP with the female host and directly follow the audience’s ideas? Isn’t this nonsense?Besides, this practice is not authentic. butIf you don’t cooperate with the audience’s ideas, you won’t get a bonus, and you will be insulted by irrational fans, which also tests the actor’s personal psychological quality.

Although the appearance of CP powder shows that Liu Xue Yi has a good acting skill and a sense of Soviet Union, this blatant pairing of male and female is obviously unfavorable to Liu Xueyi. So Liu Xueyi was hurt by the CP of the last play.The background of Wu Jinyan’s choice of this drama is also quite special. I think the first drama that Wu Jinyan appeared in the audience’s field of vision was the big-bang drama Story of Yanxi Palace.Although the appearance of being vomited by the audience is not exquisite at all, the mouth is exaggerated when speaking lines, which is too stealing the mirror. However, Wu Jinyan’s personal attention rose with the explosion of the drama.

It’s just that when the team chose the script, they were too superstitious about the star drama, which led to the word-of-mouth of Wu Jinyan being gradually consumed in many modern dramas with general plots, and even once fell into an embarrassing situation where there was no drama to shoot.At that time, no one thought that Wu Jinyan could get another hit with revenge. "The Flame of Spring Flowers" is Wu Jinyan’s second play after a long period of revision.The most important thing in ancient puppet shows is to fire CP. It’s just that Wu Jinyan just officially announced her marriage license with her boyfriend who has been running for seven years. Many viewers should also be unable to accept the CP business in Liu Xueyi and Wu Jinyan.

It happens that men and women who don’t like CP marketing are surprisingly consistent.As long as the plot is good and the chemical reaction between the actors is enough, the heat and data of the series will naturally not be bad. What’s more, there is no fierce competition in the current film and television drama market. As long as "Spring Flower Flame" keeps playing steadily under the condition of fresh people, it may have unexpected effects.After all, Liu Xueyi’s ancient costumes have a fixed audience, and most of them believe it.The heroine who plays revenge track is a comfort zone for Wu Jinyan.The play won from the cast.

Although "Spring Flower Flame" has definitely undergone a drastic adaptation compared with the original, it is still attractive to the audience.

Emerging economies

    An emerging economy refers to a country or region’s vigorous economic development and becoming an emerging economic entity. There is no accurate definition at present. The British Economist divides emerging economies into two echelons: the first echelon is China, Brazil, Indian and Russian, also known as BRIC countries; The second echelon includes Mexico, South Korea, South Africa, Poland, Turkey, Egypt and other "new diamond" countries.

According to the data released by IMF, in 2007, the developed economies only grew by 2.7%, and the emerging and developing economies grew by 8%. In 2010, the GDP of India, Russia and Brazil all exceeded the trillion-dollar mark, and they were promoted to the top 12 in the world economy. China reached 5.75 trillion dollars, ranking second in the world. China, India and Russia have contributed more than half of the global economic growth. The "new diamond" countries have also performed well. It is predicted that in 2025, eight countries including Mexico, Indonesia, Turkey, Iran and Vietnam will rank among the top 20 in the world economy. On the list of the top 500 enterprises in the world in 2008, there are 35 in China and 7 in India.

After the global economic recession in 2008-2009, the global economic recovery was divided, in which the strong growth of emerging markets led to the global economic recovery, while the developed economies were struggling. In 2010, the contribution rate of BRIC countries (Brazil, Russian Federation, Indian and China) to world economic growth continued to exceed 50%. BRIC countries have become an important force in the international community that cannot be ignored. root …

The amount of debt held by commercial banks is nearly 70 trillion! How does the new capital management approach affect the bond market

  China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission and the Central Bank recently publicly solicited opinions on the Measures for Capital Management of Commercial Banks (Draft for Comment). The new regulation is to implement the regulatory requirements of Basel III issued by the Basel Committee in 2017, with the goal of improving the risk management level of banks. The measures are planned to be formally implemented on January 1, 2024.

  The impact of this new regulation on the bond market is not small. The data shows that commercial banks hold 69.1 trillion yuan of bonds, accounting for 55.30% of the scale of custody bonds, and are the largest institutions holding bonds in China. According to the reporter’s interview with people in the industry, on the whole, the new regulations adjust the bond risk weight coefficient, which is beneficial to commercial banks to reduce capital consumption, and generally benefits local government general bonds, investment-grade credit bonds, bad bank secondary capital bonds, and interbank deposit certificates of more than three months.

  The willingness to hold local bonds and high-quality credit bonds may rise.

  Wang Qiangsong, head of the financial research department of Nanyin, told CBN that the new regulations have the greatest impact on the bond market from several dimensions. First of all, the risk weight of local governments’ general bonds is lowered from 20% to 10%, and special bonds remain unchanged. The general bond revenue and expenditure of local governments are included in the general budget revenue and expenditure. Legally speaking, it is more appropriate to lower the risk weight.

  By the end of 2022, the general debt of local governments was 1,438.96 billion yuan, and 86% of domestic local debt was held by commercial banks. It is estimated that the reduction of general debt risk weight will save banks 1,237.5 billion yuan (143,896 * 0.86 * 0.1). "Lowering the risk weight of general debt will provide space for commercial banks to increase their holdings of government debt and further support the medium and long-term expansion of government debt." He said.

  In addition, the risk weight of investment-grade corporate bonds is lowered from 100% to 75%, and investment-grade companies are identified from eight specific indicators, such as operating risk, debt risk and profit level.

  The agency predicts that most bonds issued by large central enterprises and listed companies will be recognized as investment-grade corporate bonds, but the number of urban investment bonds that can be included in this standard is small. This will help commercial banks to allocate high-quality credit bonds, improve the transaction depth of high-quality credit bonds and reduce financing costs.

  The allocation of secondary capital bonds may decline.

  Since the net value of wealth management products fluctuated greatly, the change of tier-2 capital bonds has received great attention. This new regulation has increased the risk weight of tier-2 capital bonds of banks from 100% to 150%, which also has a considerable impact on this asset class.

  As of the beginning of February 2023, the balance of domestic banks’ tier 2 capital bonds was about 5.3 trillion yuan. "Adjusting the risk weight may cause an impact. It will be more difficult for banks to hold each other when issuing Tier 2 capital bonds, and banks will reduce their allocation and market liquidity will be weakened." Wang Qiangsong said.

  Liao Zhiming, chief banking analyst of China Merchants Securities, told reporters: "The new regulations have adjusted the risk weight of tier-two capital bonds of banks, insurance and brokers to 150%, and TLAC (total loss absorption capacity) bonds are also 150%, compared with the current 100%. There is a big increase. The risk weight of tier-2 capital bonds increased in line with expectations, and the incremental impact was controllable. However, the key to follow-up depends on the growth of wealth management scale. "

  Among the bank capital replenishment tools, secondary capital bonds and perpetual bonds are the main components, and the circulation has increased significantly in recent years. Earlier, tier-2 capital bonds were preferred assets held by banking financial subsidiaries. However, at one time, due to the fluctuation of bond market, the net value fluctuated greatly, which led to a sharp drop in prices caused by bond market selling and investor redemption. This also once caused the market to worry about wealth management or continue to reduce its holdings of tier 2 capital bonds.

  Yu Jinxin, an analyst at Minsheng Securities, said earlier that all levels of capital of domestic commercial banks have corresponding supplementary tools, among which tier-2 capital bonds and perpetual bonds are significantly ahead, supplementing tier-2 capital and other tier-1 capital of banks respectively. In recent years, the issuance of secondary capital bonds and perpetual bonds has increased significantly. By the end of May 2022, the total stock scale reached 4.98 trillion yuan, of which the issuance scale of state-owned banks was dominant, and the number of urban and rural commercial banks was relatively high. "Although the new asset management regulations have brought new investment constraints to tier-2 capital bonds and perpetual bonds, the asset mismatch may still make these two types of bonds lack alternative assets. Therefore, we believe that the investment demand is still resilient, but there may be two changes. One is that the duration is moderately shortened, and the other is that the transaction attributes are enhanced."

  Most viewpoints hold that, as far as Tier 2 capital bonds are concerned, although the scale growth of bank wealth management funds is still uncertain, the overall allocation of insurance funds may remain stable under the long-term gap between assets and liabilities and policy support.

  The impact on bank capital adequacy ratio is limited.

  Generally speaking, most institutions believe that the implementation of the new regulations has limited impact on the capital adequacy ratio of domestic commercial banks, and it is expected that the capital adequacy ratio of banks will be slightly improved due to the reduction of the credit risk weight of investment-grade enterprises.

  The bright spot is that the policy supports the growth of consumer loans and mortgage loans. Under the new regulations, the risk weight of banks with a high proportion of mortgage loans and retail business is lowered, and the capital adequacy ratio is expected to increase.

  Specifically, Wang Qiangsong told reporters that the risk weight of credit cards was lowered, and the risk weight of credit lines (unused lines) below 1 million yuan was adjusted from 50% to 20%, and the definition of qualified traders was proposed, and the risk weight of use lines was adjusted from 75% to 45%; In terms of housing mortgage loan, the repayment source does not depend on the real estate cash flow (that is, the solvency of the purchaser is valued), and the risk weight is lowered — — If the down payment ratio is more than 40%, it will be reduced from 50% to 40%, and if the down payment ratio is 30%, it will be reduced from 50% to 45%, which is beneficial to both the first set and the second set.

  At the same time, under the new regulations, the risk weight of SMEs is 85%, which is lower than the current 100%. Liao Zhiming believes that this is good for city commercial banks with relatively high credit for SMEs. The risk exposure of small and medium-sized enterprises refers to the creditor’s rights of commercial banks to enterprises whose operating income in the last year does not exceed 300 million yuan and meets the identification standards of medium, small and micro enterprises stipulated by relevant state departments, but does not include the creditor’s rights to small and micro enterprises and investment-grade companies.

The travel script of "charging at the beginning and returning at the end" during the National Day Golden Week is being rewritten by young people.

This year’s smart young people found that there was a "low price" and "high experience" hidden in the holiday-not only did the prices of air tickets and hotels plummet, but also popular attractions were less crowded, so they used the "peak-shifting" strategy to re-plan their travel time.

This is not a simple "delay", but a set of "National Day peak-shifting economics" about how to use time to replace space and cost performance.

Trade annual leave for a cost-effective trip.

Using three-day annual leave to complete a "precise escape" from the Golden Week is a holiday plan planned by Guangzhou consumer wangyi (pseudonym) for the National Day in 2025.

Her tourist destination is Bangkok, Thailand, leaving on October 5 and returning on October 12. "Depart late, and then take three days off to return late, which can save a lot of money." Wangyi told the reporter of Consumer Reports that the peak prices of both air tickets and hotels have fallen off a cliff.

The price data confirmed her judgment. The reporter of "Consumer Report" searched the air tickets through the OTA platform and found that the lowest fare of the air ticket from Guangzhou to Bangkok on October 1 was 1929 yuan, while the lowest fare on October 5 was only 431 yuan, and the difference was nearly 1500 yuan.

So is the return ticket. If you return at the end of the National Day holiday (that is, October 8), the lowest fare for direct flights from Bangkok to Guangzhou is 1709 yuan, while the lowest fare on October 12 is 941 yuan, with a difference of 768 yuan; Roughly speaking, wangyi and her friends can save nearly 5,000 yuan on air tickets alone, which is enough for another high-quality trip in Bangkok.

In fact, as early as July when booking air tickets, wangyi experienced a psychological game with price fluctuations. When buying air tickets, the platform’s "only a few tickets left" prompt and the price comparison suddenly jumped up in 200 yuan, which made her realize that off-peak travel is not only a cost-effective choice, but also a technical activity that needs to be laid out in advance.

While most people are still crowded in the crowd and paying high bills, "time planners" like wangyi are exchanging accurate calculations for a more leisurely travel experience.

Coincidentally, Xie Yang (pseudonym) also chose to use "time arbitrage" in exchange for a cost-effective trip. She arranged her two-day annual leave after the National Day holiday, and planned to leave for Nha Trang and Daat in Vietnam on October 3 and return on October 11. The ticket price is an important reason for her decision to leave late. "Hotel prices are not much different, but the air ticket on October 3 is much cheaper than the previous two days." Xie Yang said.

Her journey is completely outlined by the price curve: she originally planned to go to Sri Lanka, but she gave up decisively because the ticket price suddenly doubled. "When I want to buy it, I found that the price has increased, and I don’t want to buy it in an instant." In Xie Yang’s travel decision, the weight of each factor from high to low is: visa-free or visa-convenient, the fare is close to the people, the route is friendly, and the destination has never been there. After two weeks of price comparison and screening, Vietnam finally became the destination of her trip.

While most people are still hesitating about the sky-high air tickets for popular destinations, "price-sensitive travelers" like Xie Yang are no longer obsessed with "places that must be visited", but where it is cost-effective. During the golden week when all the people gathered together, they redefined the holiday experience with the strategy of peak shifting through accurate "time arbitrage" in exchange for their own high-quality travel.

Economics of off-peak travel

The fluctuation of air ticket price during the National Day holiday is like a vivid economics course. On September 29th, the reporter of Consumer Report searched through OTA platform and found that on October 1st, the lowest fare from Beijing to Urumqi was 1,130 yuan, while on October 5th, the lowest fare on the same route only needed 380 yuan, and the difference reached 750 yuan.

The similar price difference is also obvious on the route from Guangzhou to Seoul. The lowest fare on October 1 was 1,521 yuan, but it dropped to 623 yuan on October 3.

Flying pig said that under the spell holiday strategy of "please take 3 holidays and 12 holidays" before and after the holiday, off-peak travel and transit "string tour" have become a good choice for this year’s National Day holiday. For example, the air ticket from Shenzhen to Fuzhou on October 3 was nearly cheaper than that on October 1 and October 2, near 600 yuan; On September 26th, the ticket price of Beijing connecting Qingdao to Chengdu is less than that of direct flight to Chengdu, and you can spend two days in the connecting city of Qingdao.

The fluctuation of air ticket price often brings decision-making anxiety to users. To this end, Meituan Platform has launched an AI price comparison tool to help users predict price trends.

On September 29th, the reporter of Consumer Report inquired through the platform of Meituan that the lowest price for direct flights from Guangzhou to Xi ‘an on October 1st was 1,071 yuan. The information provided by Meituan AI price comparison function shows that the price is 504 yuan cheaper than that in the past 7 days. On October 1st, the lowest direct flight fare from Zhengzhou to Guangzhou was 393 yuan, which was 205 yuan lower than that in the past 7 days. Tickets from popular cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Xi ‘an and Kunming to Guangzhou have also been reduced to varying degrees.

According to industry insiders, the airline will dynamically adjust the ticket price according to the real-time sales and inventory of the ticket. According to the experience of previous years, it is normal for some routes to reduce prices before the festival. However, in the week before this year’s festival, although the air ticket price during the National Day period declined, it was still higher than the same period of last year. For consumers, it is more difficult to "miss" this year, and the wrong peak travel can choose a more cost-effective air ticket.

Staggered peaks are becoming the mainstream choice.

On this National Day, the peak shift has changed from the "unique skill" of a few people to the consensus of most people.

The relevant person in charge of Qunar said in an interview with the reporter of Consumer Report that from the perspective of traveler flow, it began to enter the peak of National Day travel on September 29, and October 1 was the peak of passenger flow before the holiday. Where to go data shows that more people choose "please take 3 breaks and 12 holidays" for holiday travel, and the peak of travel will last until October 12. Three days after the festival (October 9-October 11), the booking volume of popular destinations for outbound travel nearly doubled compared with last year.

Where to go big data shows that "going late and coming back late" is the "saving money cheats" for the 11 th holiday this year. From October 2 nd to October 5 th, the low-cost air tickets from Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou to many popular cities in China are below 500 yuan; For outbound travel, there are more than 400 yuan in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, more than 2,000 yuan in Stockholm and more than 3,000 yuan in London. On the return trip, the air ticket after October 10 is generally half cheaper than that on October 8.

Judging from the crowd structure, young people are the main force of the "Eleventh" outing. According to the travel data of the US Mission, among the people who booked the National Day travel in 2025, young tourists accounted for 62% after 00. In an interview with Consumer Report, the relevant person in charge of Meituan Travel said, "Among the’ Eleventh’ travelers, young people travel together on a large scale with many increments, and the behavior of’ spelling fake’ is also more common among young people; Parent-child travel has also increased, and silver-haired people choose to travel at the wrong peak after October 8. "

According to the travel data of Meituan, as of September 27th, between "early vacation" (September 27th-October 8th) and "extended holiday" (October 1st-October 12th), more consumers chose to extend their holidays later, and the travel enthusiasm from October 9th to October 12th was significantly higher than that of the same period last year.

In an interview with Consumer Report, Qunar Big Data Research Institute analyzed that migrant workers who "fake" travel are no longer satisfied with a cursory punch-in tour, but prefer to have an in-depth experience in a country. High cost performance is also an important determinant of traveling now. Cross-peak travel not only has obvious price advantages, but also can avoid crowds for in-depth experience, which is a new choice for many young consumers and silver-haired consumers. However, the mainstream family tourists are limited by their children’s school time, and they still choose to travel in winter and summer vacations and public holidays.

[Resist the chaos of "rice circles"] What are rice circles? Definition and characteristics of fan culture

Rice circle is the abbreviation of fan circle, specifically refers to the fan group who likes a star or group. This word originated from fans calling themselves "rice", which means that fans are as indispensable as eating, but also have the meaning of aggregation and adhesion. Therefore, the circle composed of fans is called "rice circle".

The word "rice" may be derived from the transliteration of the English word "fans", which is composed of "fan" and "s" to indicate multiple fans. "Fans" is the plural form of the English word "fan", which comes from "fanatic" and is later simplified to "fan" and widely used. In English, "fan" refers to a person who is particularly interested in and supports a certain sport, art, entertainment or other activities, especially a supporter of an athlete, band, actor or other artist. "Fan" usually refers to a single supporter, while "fans" refers to multiple supporters.

In Chinese, "fan" is transliterated as "rice", so "rice circle" has become the abbreviation of fan circle. Fans form a group and share their interests and enthusiasm with each other, thus forming a circle, the so-called "rice circle".

The meaning of rice circle

Rice circle is the abbreviation of fan circle, specifically refers to the fan group who likes a star or group. In today’s society, the entertainment industry is booming, and the stars shine in the public’s field of vision like bright stars, attracting the attention and love of countless people. Fans’ love for stars is no longer just appreciation, but has gradually formed an organized and cohesive group, which is rice circles.

The origin of the word "rice circle" is quite interesting. Fans call themselves "rice", which means fans and fans. This title seems to give them a special identity, so that they can find a sense of belonging and identity among many people. The circle formed by these fans is called "rice circle", which is like an invisible big family, bringing together people from all corners of the country with common interests.

In this circle, fans have a strong emotional connection because of their love for stars. They will cheer for every performance of the star and be proud of every achievement of the star. Whether it is a wonderful performance on the stage or a little detail in life, it can become a topic that fans talk about. This kind of love is not only an appreciation of the talent and charm of stars, but also an emotional sustenance and pursuit.

For example, when a singer releases a new album, fans in the rice circle will buy and share it at the first time. They will carefully taste the lyrics and melody of each song and feel the emotions and stories that the singer wants to convey. When an actor plays a new film and television work, fans will actively promote it and recommend it to more people through various channels, hoping that more people can enjoy the wonderful performance of their idols.

In short, the formation of rice circles is a concentrated expression of fans’ love for stars, which provides a platform for fans to communicate and share, so that they can understand and support their favorite stars more deeply.

Characteristics of rice circles

The members of the rice circle are rich and diverse, including star diehard powder, passerby powder, illegitimate powder and black powder, etc., and the connotation is more complicated.

Die-hard fans, they are the most determined and fanatical group in the rice circle. Their love for idols goes deep into the bone marrow, and they will always support and follow them no matter whether they are at the peak or the trough. They will spend a lot of time and energy to collect all kinds of information about idols, including photos, videos, news reports and so on. They will go as far as Wan Li to attend idol concerts and face-to-face meetings, just to see idol’s figure and hear idol’s voice at close range. They will list, vote and criticize idols on social media, and do their best to maintain their image and reputation.

Passerby powder is relatively casual and gentle. They may have a good impression on a star because of a film and television work, a song or a variety show, but this affection is not as strong and lasting as die-hard fans. They may pay attention to the dynamics of stars, but they will not invest too much time and energy. Their support for the stars is more reflected in the occasional praise, comments and sharing.

Illegitimate flour and black flour are special in rice circles. In order to satisfy their own selfish desires, illegitimate powder does not hesitate to invade the privacy of stars, tracking and photographing their daily lives, which has brought great troubles and threats to stars. Black powder, for various reasons, maliciously attacks and discredits the stars, spreads false rumors and destroys the image and reputation of the stars.

The rice circle culture contains rich and varied contents, such as the internal rules of the fan group, special terms, the activity of playing the list, the gathering of activities, the purchase of surrounding products and other requirements in the circle.

There are strict rules within the fan group, which may include how to communicate with other fans, how to treat the negative news of idols, and how to participate in aid activities. Special terms are a major feature of rice circle culture, such as "life’s core monuments", "Wall Head", "Climbing the Wall", "Controlling Evaluation" and "Beating Vote". These terms can only be understood by people inside the rice circle, and they have become a unique password for communication among fans.

The activity of playing the list is one of the important indicators to measure the support of fans to idols. Fans will make a list of idol songs and film and television works through various music platforms and social media to improve the ranking and popularity of idols. Event gathering is an important way for fans to get together offline. They will gather together in important occasions such as idol concerts, face-to-face meetings and birthday parties to cheer for idols together. Buying peripheral products is also a way for fans to express their support. From posters and photo albums to various products endorsed by celebrities, fans will not hesitate to buy them to show their love for idols.

Fans spontaneously cheer, publicize and increase traffic for their idols in the rice circle. They will post a lot of content about idols on social media, including pictures, videos and texts, to attract more people’s attention. They will organize various online and offline publicity activities, such as street publicity and public welfare activities, to enhance the popularity and reputation of idols. They will also increase the traffic for idols in various ways, such as brushing the broadcast volume, brushing comments, etc., so as to make idols stand out in the highly competitive entertainment circle.

Organizational form of rice circles

Rice circles are mostly organized by star brokerage companies for fans who are stuck with their stars. In today’s highly commercialized entertainment industry, star brokerage companies are well aware of the power and value of fans. In order to better manage and guide fans, brokerage companies will take various measures to organize and operate rice circles.

With the development of the times, the entertainment circle gave birth to a new term "rice circle" in idolize, and a huge fan group with the psychology of "an old mother raising a son" appeared. The appearance of this psychological phenomenon is not accidental, it reflects the changes of social culture and people’s psychological needs.

In the fast-paced and high-pressure modern life, people are eager to find an emotional sustenance and spiritual comfort. For many fans, idols have become their ideal perfect images, bearing their dreams and hopes. They put their emotions into the support and care for idols, as if taking care of a child who needs care. This psychology of "an old mother raising a son" makes fans have a strong sense of responsibility and desire for protection. They are willing to pay everything for their idols, including time, money and energy.

The growth of idols is also the self-realization process of fans, who are the spokesmen of fans’ subjectivity and satisfy the viewers’ self-imagination. When idols shine on the stage and show excellent acting skills in film and television works, fans will feel extremely proud and satisfied, as if their efforts and contributions have been rewarded. The success of idols makes fans see the possibility of realizing their dreams and inspires them to pursue better themselves in their own lives.

At the same time, idols are also the objects in their desires, filling the vacancy of ideal partners. In real life, people may face all kinds of emotional deficiencies and dissatisfaction. The perfect image and charm of idols make fans find the characteristics of ideal partners in their imagination. They project their desire for love, friendship and affection on idols, and make up for their regrets in reality through their love for idols.

For example, a young girl may not meet a boy who excites her in life, but she finds the qualities of an ideal partner such as gentleness, handsomeness and talent in her idol. She will pin her longing for love on idols and satisfy her deep yearning for beautiful love by supporting idols.

Problems and influence of rice circles

The rice circle culture is not completely positive, but it also brings a series of problems and negative effects. In this era of information explosion, some bad phenomena of rice circles have gradually surfaced, which has aroused widespread concern and concern from all walks of life.

In order to maintain their idols, some fans are willing to be enemies with the whole world and attack each other, resulting in cyber violence. On social media, it is often seen that fans of different idols have a fierce battle of abuse because of some trivial things. They are violent and aggressive, and even personally attack and insult others. This kind of network violence not only hurts the feelings of others, but also destroys the harmony and civilization of the network environment.

In addition, the phenomenon of Yan value worship, money worship and comparison, cyber violence and hatred in rice circle culture has also aroused widespread concern in society. In rice circles, face value is often overemphasized, and some fans only value the appearance of idols, ignoring their inner qualities and talents. This kind of worship of Yan value easily leads to the distortion of values, which makes young people pursue the beauty of appearance excessively, while ignoring the inner cultivation and ability improvement.

Gold worship and comparison is also a prominent problem in rice circle culture. In order to support idols, some fans spend a lot of money to buy expensive peripheral products, attend expensive concerts and meetings. They compare with each other who spends more money on idols, which not only increases the financial burden of families, but also makes young people develop bad consumption habits and values.

Cyber violence is a big cancer in rice circle culture. In order to maintain the image of idols, some fans maliciously attack and harass people who criticize idols, and even disclose personal information of others, which has brought great troubles and threats to others’ lives. This kind of behavior not only violates laws and regulations, but also seriously infringes on the legitimate rights and interests of others.

Advocating hatred is also a serious problem in rice circle culture. Some fans spread hate speech on the internet because of their dissatisfaction with other idols or fan groups, inciting opposition among fans. This kind of behavior not only destroys the harmony and stability of society, but also has a bad influence on the mental health of teenagers.

These problems not only pollute the network ecological environment, but also affect the normal social order, especially the healthy growth of teenagers. Teenagers are in the critical period of forming their values, and they are easily influenced by bad factors in rice circle culture, which leads to wrong values and behavior patterns. For example, some teenagers neglect their studies for the sake of idolize, and even commit crimes.

In order to create a healthy, civilized and harmonious network environment, we need to strengthen the guidance and management of rice circle culture, standardize the behavior of fans and advocate rational idolize. At the same time, families and schools should also strengthen the education of teenagers, guide them to establish correct values and outlook on life, so that they can correctly treat the culture of stars and rice circles and avoid being adversely affected.

conclusion

To sum up, Fanquan is a group composed of fans, aiming to support and promote their favorite stars or groups. In this passionate and energetic group, fans express their love and support for idols in various ways.

However, with the continuous expansion and evolution of rice circle culture, it has also brought some negative effects. These negative effects not only affect the healthy development of the network environment, but also have a certain impact on the social order and the growth of teenagers.

We need to arouse the attention and reflection from all walks of life and discuss how to guide the development of rice circle culture in a positive and healthy direction. This requires the joint efforts of stars, brokerage companies, fans and all sectors of society. Stars should lead by example, set a good example and influence fans with their positive energy. Brokerage companies should strengthen the guidance and management of fans and standardize their behavior. Fans should also be rational, civilized and idolize, and respect the rights and feelings of others.

Only through the joint efforts of all parties, can we make rice circle culture a positive force and make contributions to social development and progress.

New technology is a "double-edged sword": tapping the potential of blockchain and being alert to various potential risks.

  During the 18th collective study in the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized that "we should strengthen the guidance and standardization of blockchain technology" and "we should implement the rule of law in the management of blockchain and promote the safe and orderly development of blockchain".

  At present, the blockchain is still in the early stage of accelerated development, and its technology and application prospects are broad, but the risks cannot be ignored.

  Beware of investment risks

  He Ping, a professor of finance at Tsinghua University Institute of Economics and Management and director of China Financial Research Center, revealed that the blockchain industry is booming and new enterprises are constantly pouring into the track. "Some track participants don’t really understand what distributed storage is, and they don’t understand how blockchain can promote business model improvement. Over-investment is one of the risks currently facing the blockchain industry. "

  In particular, illegal and illegal projects packaged as investment targets under the concept of blockchain have brought harm to society.

  On August 28, 2018, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, the Central Network Information Office, the Ministry of Public Security, the People’s Bank of China and the State Administration of Market Supervision jointly issued the Risk Warning on Preventing Illegal Fund Raising in the Name of Virtual Currency and Blockchain. It is mentioned in the risk warning that some lawless elements have issued so-called virtual currency, virtual assets and digital assets under the banner of financial innovation and blockchain.

  If the application of blockchain technology cannot bring positive benefits to society, it is not a good project. He Ping agrees with this view. "Risks always exist. Investors should be cautious and carefully screen many blockchain projects."

  Beware of financial risks

  He Ping emphasized that fraudulent acts with the concept of blockchain emerge in an endless stream in the market, and the financial risks caused by it cannot be ignored. For violations of laws and regulations, regulators should strictly enforce the law, learn from past mistakes, and prevent Ponzi schemes from appearing.

  Yang Dong, director of the Big Data Blockchain and Supervision Science and Technology Laboratory of China Renmin University, said that technological innovation will bring quantitative risk and qualitative risk. For example, he said, financial technology will greatly reduce the connection cost between fund providers and demanders, but the characteristics of financial risks such as concealment, suddenness, contagion and negative externalities will not disappear.

  "Not only that, financial, technical and network risks are more prone to superposition and aggregation effects, which make risks spread faster and wider, and are more prominent in technical risks, operational risks and systemic risks." Yang Dong said.

  Yang Dong also said that the blockchain is being integrated with different technologies, and the boundary between the real world and the virtual world is being blurred, and the risks caused by it in the field of financial technology have gradually emerged.

  Beware of regulatory risks

  Yang Dong believes that in view of the rapid development of the blockchain industry, the traditional regulatory model is weak, and various risks brought about by information asymmetry are increasingly prominent.

  Yang Dong pointed out that the rapid changes in science and technology make the fact-based supervision path overwhelming managers, and the urgency of supervision will make data identification more difficult.

  "In an era of changeable, complex and destructive innovations, it is not easy to determine the regulatory targets, regulatory timing and regulatory methods."

  On the legal level, Yang Dong believes that there is a certain lag in regulating the development of blockchain industry through traditional regulatory laws, which is particularly evident in the financial field of blockchain technology application.

  "On the whole, the principle of supervision tends to sum up lessons afterwards. The principles, concepts and even theories of such traditional prudential supervision and behavioral supervision cannot effectively cope with the rapid development of new formats such as financial technology." Yang Dong said.

  Beware of technical risks

  The "Blockchain White Paper (2019)" issued by China Institute of Information and Communication shows that the number of applications for open blockchain patents in the world is as high as 18,000, with China accounting for more than half, ranking first in the world.

  The white paper also shows that in terms of patent authorization, although the number of blockchain patent applications in China ranks first at present, most of them are in the review stage, and most of the authorized patents are utility model and marginal patents.

  By the end of 2018, 771 blockchain invention patents were authorized in the world, and only 53 in China.

  Zhou Ping, director of the Software Engineering and Evaluation Center of China Institute of Electronic Technology Standardization, believes that there are many risk points in blockchain technology. Openness, transparency and non-tampering are the main characteristics of blockchain. With the development of technology, new privacy protection risks cannot be ignored. In addition, many current blockchain applications are mainly based on the improvement and upgrading of foreign open source technologies. Large-scale applications have the risk of interconnection, which may form many new information islands and may even be technically controlled by people. In addition, it is necessary to prevent overheating investment in blockchain infrastructure to avoid waste of resources.

  How to supervise scientifically and effectively?

  With the popularization and application of blockchain technology, in addition to technical supervision, legal and policy supervision has become more and more urgent.

  Yang Dong said that in the face of new problems brought by new technologies, it is urgent to break through the traditional regulatory dimension, make full use of the opportunities brought by technology, solve the shackles of "chaos control cycle" in supervision, and effectively control risks while promoting innovation.

  "Science and technology have profoundly affected the legal and governance system, and adhering to the combination of science and technology governance and legal governance is an effective way to reshape the regulatory capacity." Yang Dong said that the impact of blockchain lies not only in the reconstruction of productivity and technology, but also in the level of production relations and rules, affecting the distribution mechanism of interests and the pattern of interests.

  In view of how to supervise scientifically and effectively, Li Ming, director of the Blockchain Research Office of China Institute of Electronic Technology Standardization, believes that relevant departments should establish a sound supervision system, use laws and regulations to clarify the main responsibility, use policies to guide the direction, and manage and control technological risks through science and technology. At the same time, explore targeted regulatory means and methods to manage network, hardware, software and information-related service providers.

  Yang Dong also believes that the regulatory authorities should actively explore the application of blockchain, promote the development of this technology in an orderly manner and reduce the risks brought by technology.
