For reference, it took Weilai, Tucki and Ideality, who are also new car-making forces, about 4 years, 6 years and 5 years to go public in the United States respectively. Tesla also spent seven years.

According to the prospectus, apart from producing high-end pure electric vehicles, Extreme Krypton also provides technology-driven solutions and is committed to leading the electrification, intelligence and innovation of the automobile industry.

The rapid increase in car sales has led to a significant increase in revenue. In 2022, Krypton achieved revenue of 31.899 billion yuan. In the first half of 2023, the revenue was nearly 21.3 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 136%, of which the vehicle sales revenue was 13.175 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 148.75%.

Earlier, An Conghui, CEO of Extreme Smart Technology, revealed that Extreme Smart is already the pure electric brand with the best gross profit level except Tesla. This year, the company’s gross profit margin target is in double digits. Judging from its growth momentum, Krypton is expected to become the first and fastest electric vehicle company to make money except Tesla.

According to the plan, Krypton plans to enter the pure electric vehicle market in Europe and the Robotaxi market in the United States in the future. And this will bring about a corresponding increase in R&D, marketing and other expenses. The data shows that in the first half of 2023, the R&D expenses of Krypton reached 3.19 billion yuan, and the sales, general and administrative expenses were 2.90 billion yuan.

As an important bet of Geely in the field of new energy, it is urgent to improve its "hematopoietic" ability, and listing is bound to be one of the paths of capital blessing. On August 25 this year, the CSRC confirmed the information on overseas listing. According to the filing notice of overseas issuance and listing, Krypton plans to issue no more than 926 million ordinary shares and list them on the New York Stock Exchange.

According to the prospectus, the funds raised by this IPO are mainly used for three purposes: about 45% is used for "developing more advanced pure electric vehicle technology and expanding product portfolio"; About 45% is used for "sales and marketing, expanding service and charging network"; 10% is used for "general purpose of the enterprise, including the working capital requirements to support the company’s business operation and growth".

In recent years, many brands under Geely have rushed to the capital market. At present, there are 9 listed or planned listed companies, including Geely Automobile, Volvo Automobile, Lotus Technology, Polar Star, Yikatong, Extreme Krypton Automobile, Qianjiang Motorcycle, Hanma Technology and Lifan Technology. While Li Shufu, the helm of Geely, ushered in a bumper IPO, it also made Geely Holding Group’s "team battle" ability expand.

Some market analysts believe that the independent listing of Geely’s brands will enable Geely to achieve large-scale operations. As Li Shufu said in his internal speech: "In the end, the number of global automobile industry enterprises will not be too much, and only large-scale enterprises can survive."

"online celebrity Live" was arrested on the spot with goods. The police arrested several criminal gangs that manufacture and sell counterfeit and infringing goods.

CCTV News:In August of this year, a video of an online cargo anchor stopped by the police during the live broadcast was circulated on the Internet. The video was only 30 seconds long, but it attracted a lot of netizens’ attention, and they speculated why the anchor was taken away by the police during the live broadcast. Recently, the Shanghai police confirmed that this video took place in an arrest operation by the police in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. At that time, the network anchor and his operation team were conducting a live webcast to bring goods, and they were selling counterfeit and infringing goods.

Shanghai police confirmed to reporters that this video took place in an arrest operation in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province on August 28. This live broadcast room belongs to a live broadcast anchor named Silent M07. At that time, she was broadcasting live with her operation team. With the stunned expression of the anchor and the appearance of plainclothes policemen, the whole live broadcast came to an abrupt end, and this scene also shocked hundreds of thousands of netizens who were watching the live broadcast.

On the spot, the police controlled 7 people, in addition to the anchor with the goods, there are alsoFourStaff of the operation team and two staff of the supplier. A large number of goods, such as clothing, shoes and hats, jewelry and watches, were also seized at the scene, which was the reason for this action. 

More than 50 people were arrested in 8 dens for manufacturing and selling counterfeit goods.

Not only that, but at the same time, multi-channel police launched operations in Zhejiang and Guangdong. According to the police, the goal of this operation is to crack down on criminal gangs that manufacture and sell counterfeit goods. During the operation, more than 50 criminal suspects were arrested, 8 dens were investigated, and more than 3,000 counterfeit luxury brands’ bags, clothing and other commodities were seized on the spot.

Knowing the fake and selling fake "online celebrity" anchor has become a sales promoter.

Recently, the Shanghai police announced the latest development of the case. Of the more than 50 suspects arrested at present, 41 have been arrested by the procuratorate, and the case is under further investigation. Then, how did this anchor with a million fans go to the road of knowing fakes and selling fakes, and how did it attract the attention of the police? During the investigation, the police found that the anchor tried every means to avoid the brand of the goods he sold in the live broadcast. All indications showed that the anchor and members of the live broadcast team knew that a large number of goods they sold were counterfeit and infringing goods.

So who is this anchor who was taken away? According to the police, the anchor network is named Silent M07, whose real name is Liao, and he is 27 years old this year. In 2017, she signed a contract with a brokerage company to become an online shopping anchor, and began to open a live broadcast room on a well-known e-commerce platform, specializing in women’s wear and accessories. Due to his professional experience as a graphic model, Liao accumulated millions of fans in just three years and became a "head anchor".

There are a lot of abnormal phenomena in the live broadcast that attract the attention of the police.

As one of the many anchors with goods, why do the police pay so much attention to Liao’s live broadcast? Things have to start from May this year. This year, affected by the epidemic, the online shopping form of live broadcast with goods is increasingly recognized by netizens, but there are a lot of unusual phenomena in Liao’s live broadcast.

During the police investigation, it was found that Liao lived for nearly seven or eight hours every day, sometimes as long as 10 hours, and lived almost every day all year round. In the long-term live broadcast, there are often some clothes, jewelry, watches, etc. suspected to be well-known luxury brands. However, Liao never clearly stated the brand of the goods in the live broadcast room, and also blocked the trademarks on the goods.

Deliberately compare the counter price when displaying fake goods.

At the same time, when she shows the goods, she often takes out the genuine counter price as a comparison. Some luxury goods that cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands are only one-tenth or even lower when she broadcasts live, so as to attract consumers to buy. 

Not only that, the brand logo will be covered in all the links of goods suspected of infringement. At the same time, the police found that all the live broadcast pages would be hung with the words "download, delete and play back, keep up with the rhythm", which is very different from the practice of retaining playback in the general live broadcast room.

Unscrupulous merchants use "online celebrity Live" to increase the sales of fake goods.

Because of the strong ability to bring goods, fake merchants have asked Liao to bring goods. Merchants come here, and Liao’s team accepts all the orders, and the business is getting bigger and wider. 

The police investigation found that the fakes recommended by Liao’s live broadcast came from different businesses. Because the traditional online shopping platform has made great efforts to investigate and deal with counterfeit and infringing goods, in order to expand its sales,business operatorI met Liao’s live broadcast team through an intermediary introduction.

The words "a little better" in the mouth of merchants are very implicit. Usually, the prices of their goods are close to genuine prices, and no one cares at all, but they are enthusiastically sought after by fans in the live broadcast room.

The fake merchants with high commission also provide extra appearance fees.

Selling fake goods not only brings huge commission income to Liao’s team, but also provides an extra appearance fee for the fake merchants. Under the temptation of dual interests, Liao’s live broadcast room began to become a popular channel for the sale of counterfeit goods. Police investigations found that nearly 30 of the hundreds of businesses that cooperated with Liao were suspected of selling counterfeit luxury goods.

Many fake merchants have come to the door to ask for goods, and Liao also accepted them according to the order. At the same time, the live broadcast platform is not supervised, and the brokerage company never asks questions, which has become a hotbed for illegal crimes.

In the first three quarters, there were 21,900 complaints related to live broadcast. 

Not long ago, the statistics of the first three quarters of 2020 of the national 12315 platform released by the State Administration of Market Supervision showed that. In the first three quarters of this year, complaints about online shopping accounted for 31.85% of the total number of complaints and reports, and a total of 21,900 complaints and reports related to live broadcast were received, up 479.60% year-on-year, and live broadcast claims accounted for nearly 60%. The demands related to live broadcast mainly focus on jewelry, clothing, shoes and hats, household items and so on. Immediately the annual "Double Eleven""Is coming, how to make the live broadcast bring benefits and convenience to buyers, but also more reassuring, which is an urgent problem for live broadcast platforms, online shopping platforms, merchants and anchors.

  Time-sharing operators should improve their online and offline service capabilities, strengthen the intelligent organization and deployment of vehicles, and ensure the good safety of vehicles through daily inspections and self-inspection of vehicles by operators. Operators should adopt safe and compliant payment and settlement services to ensure the safety of users’ deposits and funds, and encourage the use of credit mode instead of deposit management.

Chinese youth killed by police: video release is justified!

[Comprehensive News]Christian Hall (Chinese name: Chen Zhibo), a 19-year-old Chinese youth in Pennsylvania, was shot and killed by state police in December last year. At present, it has been ruled as a legitimate reason (legal) by DA in Monroe County, Pennsylvania.

On December 30th, someone called 911 anonymously, and the anonymous caller was Hall himself. The police rushed to the scene on I-80 and found Hall standing on top of the concrete safety barrier. After some continuous twists and turns, Hall then took the gun (an air gun like a pistol) from his waist and took a step towards the police. Then a police officer fired several shots, but missed Hall.

You can see that Hall raised his arm to the side, turned the weapon to the side, and turned the barrel to aim at his head. At this time, it was the critical moment when the police decided to shoot him.

The police said: "Because Hall’s behavior caused a potential threat of death or injury, in this case, it is legal for Pennsylvania police to use deadly force against Hall."

The Monroe County District Attorney said they didn’t think the police were at fault, and they wanted to make sure Hall’s family didn’t blame themselves for it. The prosecution said that Pennsylvania law does not require suspects to fire at the police. Hall (Chen Zhibo) used an air gun to force the police to shoot, which is a common "suicide by cop" behavior.

Production capacity may be limited in the third quarter. How long can LI’s growth story be told?

Wen | Buer Research Institute Yi Xin Zi Qing

Following the price reduction of Tesla at the beginning of the year, in August this year, new energy vehicles once again set off a new wave of price reduction. Brand officials, such as Zero Run and Weilai, announced the price reduction, and the ideal was to "reduce the price in disguise" by releasing new cars.

On August 8th, LI (02015.HK) announced the second quarterly report of 2023. Although the net profit of the second quarter increased, its share price showed the opposite trend.

On the day of the financial report, its US stock price closed down by 8.62%; The next day (August 9), Hong Kong stocks closed down 5.52%.

As of August 14th, LI closed at HK$ 160.90 per share, corresponding to a market value of HK$ 335.4 billion (about RMB 311.1 billion).

According to the latest data released by Ideal, its delivery volume in the second quarter reached 86,533 vehicles, up 201.6% year-on-year and 65% quarter-on-quarter. In July, the delivery volume was 34,134 vehicles, up 227.5% year-on-year and only 4.7% quarter-on-quarter.

According to the announcement of LI, it is estimated that the delivery volume in the third quarter is only 100,000-103,000, equivalent to 33,000-34,500 vehicles per month. Based on this data, it is speculated that the growth of ideal monthly delivery volume may stagnate.

According to its second quarterly report, "Buer Research" found that in the second quarter of this year, LI’s revenue was 28.65 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 228.1%; The net profit was 2.31 billion yuan, turning losses into profits year-on-year, up 147.4% from the previous month.

In the second quarterly report, the ideal revenue doubled, but the strategy of re-marketing may continue. The R&D expenditure in the ideal second quarter was 2.43 billion yuan, up 58.4% year-on-year and 31% quarter-on-quarter. Sales, general and management expenses were 2.32 billion yuan, up 74.3% year-on-year and 40.4% quarter-on-quarter.

At present, LI’s production capacity is limited to 8,000 vehicles per week, and the production capacity of parts suppliers has fallen into a bottleneck, which is also a challenge it faces in the second half of the year.

According to the financial report meeting in the second quarter, due to the development of economic situation and the upgrading of enterprise organization matrix at the beginning of the year, it is ideal to lower the planned annual sales target of 360,000 vehicles to 300,000 vehicles.

Today, the new energy vehicle has entered the second half, and the industry volume has been intensified; Although LI turned losses into profits year-on-year, how long can the story of its profitability be sustained and increased?

In March of this year, the new forces of building cars suffered a double crit.

The first crit comes from the continuous price reduction war of peer TSLA, and the second crit is the government-enterprise subsidy jointly initiated by Hubei Dongfeng. The fuel vehicle market is "chaotic", which makes new energy vehicles suffer crit.

As one of the Three Musketeers, a new force in car-making, LI has previously published the 2022 annual report and the first quarterly report in 2023. Although the revenue in 2022 has achieved substantial growth, it is still at a loss.

According to its financial report, "Buer Research" found that in 2022, LI’s revenue was 45.29 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 67.7%; In the same period, its net loss was 2.03 billion yuan, up 531.42% year-on-year, making it the most serious year since the listing of US stocks in 2020.

Among them, the ideal automobile sales revenue in 2022 is 44.106 billion yuan, accounting for 97.39% of the total revenue. According to "Buer Research", due to the increase in R&D investment and rising operating costs in 2022, the automobile sales revenue failed to catch up, which led to the further expansion of LI’s net loss.

Under the new energy automobile track, it still takes time to accumulate and reserve funds to transform R&D investment into automobile production capacity.

Although the capital reserve has been expanded after the dual listing, more and more car-making competitors and intensified competition in sub-sectors seem to be shortening the ideal "new" time window.

01 landing in Normandy

In 2015, after leaving office in car home, Li wanted to start a business again, aiming at the field of new energy vehicles. At that time, Tesla was in the limelight, and many Tesla "fans" emerged in China.

Since then, Li Xiang’s brand ideal of new energy vehicles has stood out, and he, together with Weilai Automobile and Xpeng Motors, has been called "Three Musketeers".

In 2019, when the ideal first car, Li ONE, was officially launched, Li Xiang said frankly, "I have been in business for 20 years, and today is my most nervous day, and it is also the Normandy landing day of the company".

In July 2020, above the new energy outlet, it was ideal to land on Nasdaq in the United States, and the IPO was priced at $11.5 per share, with the highest increase of more than 50% on the first day of opening.

On August 12, 2021, LI landed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, becoming the second new car-making force to achieve dual listing in Hong Kong stocks after Xpeng Motors.

Although the new energy outlet is still there, the competition of the Three Musketeers, a new force to build cars, is intensifying. Compared with the increasingly full product matrix of Weilai and Tucki, the outside world is quite worried about the ideal car-making pace: the 2020 Li ONE that landed in Normandy has been sold for nearly three years, and the ideal finally got the new 2021 Li ONE.

According to the ideal quarterly report in 2023, its total revenue in the first quarter was 18.79 billion yuan, up 96.5% year-on-year and 6.4% quarter-on-quarter. In the same period, the net profit was 934 million yuan, turning losses into profits. In addition, the ideal annual gross profit margin in the first quarter of 2023 is still declining.

According to "Buer Research", the ideal main revenue source is vehicle sales, and its vehicle sales revenue in the first quarter of 2023 was 18.33 billion yuan, accounting for 97.55% of the total revenue.

The increase in sales revenue in LI is mainly due to the increase in delivery volume in the first quarter and the increase in the average selling price of ideal L series models. In addition, the revenue and delivery have been greatly improved, which has also enabled LI to turn losses into profits.

Entrepreneurship means choosing the path of extended-range technology and relying on an extended-range electric vehicle to conquer the world. The ideal can be described as a different kind among the three musketeers, a new force in building cars. However, the increasingly strict policy supervision is like the sword of Damocles hanging overhead, and it is ideal to make up for the autopilot technology.

Li Xiang once said frankly, "In terms of autonomous driving, compared with Tesla and Tucki, we have to make up lessons." According to the plan, this year’s ideal research and development is continuously invested; In the first quarter, its R&D expenditure was 1.85 billion yuan, up 34.8% year-on-year; In the second quarter, its R&D expenditure was 2.43 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 58.4%.

When the market structure of the new force of car-making is initially determined, the competition of new energy vehicles has entered the second half: the sales and mass production targets of 280,000-300,000 vehicles, and the fierce competition of autonomous driving technology.

As a supporter of the "10,000-hour Law", Li Xiang once wrote in Weibo, "I have trained more than 60,000 hours in the automobile industry since 2004, and I am more confident in my major".

It seems that the capital market that votes with its feet is not satisfied with Li Xiang’s "10,000-hour law".

By comparing the PE value (P/E ratio) and the PB value (P/B ratio) of the Three Musketeers, a new car-making force, it was found that by the close of the US stock market on August 12th, EDT, except LI, the PE values of the new car-making force were all negative, with the PB values of Tucki 2.81, Ideal 6.23 and Weilai 7.63 in turn, while the PB value of Tesla was 15.06.

Among the three musketeers, the ideal PB value ranks second, which is about 1/10 of Tesla PB value. The higher the PB value, the higher the valuation of enterprises in the capital market.

As of August 12th, EST, the US stock market closed, with an ideal market value of $42.18 billion, while Tesla’s market value has passed the $700 billion mark.

02 on the new speed.

On May 25th, 2021, Ideality released the 2021 Li ONE in Beijing, which was different from the enthusiastic conference site. The capital market reacted coldly and fell immediately after the opening of the day. Only one day later, it is ideal to announce the financial report for the first quarter of 2021, from profit to loss.

"Li Xiang, you owe an explanation to the owner who picked up the car in April and May." After the release of the 2021 Li ONE, Li Xiang’s Weibo was overwhelmed by the owner’s doubts.

According to the ideal plan, after the production and sales of the 2021 Li ONE model begin, the production of the 2020 model will stop. The car owner who just bought the old model of Li ONE soon felt that he had been "cleared of inventory" by routine. Although it is ideal to provide four paid upgrade schemes for old car owners, it still cannot satisfy the skeptics.

In August of the same year, a similar scene was once again staged in the ideal riders group: the prospectus revealed that the ideal will launch a new full-size SUV in 2022, and compared with the existing products, the size, hardware and intelligent configuration have been improved in many aspects.

Source: LI Guanwei

To some extent, the rapid iteration of new energy vehicles is accelerating the depreciation of the value of the previous generation models. Anxiety, confrontation and other emotions spread between riders waiting for a full-size new car and owners who have already picked up the car.

According to "Buer Research", the innovative technology of new energy vehicles is both a spear and a shield. Compared with traditional cars, the product cycle of new energy vehicles is shorter; How to balance customer perception and product iteration has also become an ideal test.

However, the other side of the coin is the risk brought by the thin product line, and any fluctuation in Li ONE may trigger a chain reaction.

In order to change this situation, it is ideal to replace Li ONE with L8 and L9 from the second half of 2022.

In the fourth quarter of 2022, the ideal delivery volume was 46,319 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 31.5%; In the same period, Weilai and Tucki delivered 40,052 vehicles and 22,204 vehicles respectively, both of which increased year-on-year.

By the end of 2022, it is ideal to deliver 133,246 vehicles throughout the year, up 47.2% year-on-year; Although it did not reach the expected goal of LI, it was slightly ahead of Weilai Automobile’s 122,486 vehicles and Xpeng Motors’s 120,757 vehicles in terms of the number of deliveries in 2022.

By the end of January this year, LI’s monthly sales even exceeded the combined monthly sales of Weilai Automobile and Xpeng Motors.

In the first quarter of this year, the ideal delivery volume was 52,584 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 65.8%; The deliveries of Weilai and Tucki in the same period were 31,041 and 18,230 respectively.

The outbreak of black swan is only a small probability event. If compared with the same industry, to some extent, the large data fluctuation of ideal sales revenue is related to its single product structure.

In the view of "Buer Research", in the early stage of starting a business, the 2020 Li ONE solo combat can unite all the superior resources; However, due to the lack of product matrix, ideal is losing its position in the price range, and it is easy to fall into the situation of weak subsequent growth.

Expanding the product matrix is imminent. On August 3 this year, it officially launched the ideal L9 Pro. According to the ideal plan, it is expected to launch the first pure electric vehicle MEGA; by the end of 2023. And in 2024, four new cars will be released, including an extended-range SUV and three pure electric models.

It is not easy to "upgrade" new energy vehicles, and R&D investment is similar to "arms race"; Only from the number of patents and invention patents in 2020, the ideal is relatively backward.

Intelligent driving is the focus of LI’s current layout. This year, the ideal plan is to land the "NOA" function in 100 cities.

At present, LI has successfully opened the urban NOA internal test in Shanghai and Beijing, and completed the first test drive of urban NOA and commuter NOA in Beijing. It is expected that in the third quarter, Ideal will also open the commuting NOA function to "early bird users".

In the view of "Buer Research", when the potential of new energy vehicle track is highlighted, attracting many car-making forces to enter the market, the competition in market segments will become more intense.

Regardless of the technical path, ideally, the time window of the new product matrix is limited, and it is urgent to find a balance between iterative novelty and customer perception.

03 Flag of Li Xiang

In February 2021, Li Xiang said in an internal letter that by 2025, it is ideal to win 20% of the market share and become the first intelligent electric vehicle enterprise in China; In 2030, it will go further and become the first intelligent electric vehicle enterprise in the world.

In the second quarter of this year, Li Xiang set a new Flag: the ideal total sales this year will exceed the target at the beginning of the year by 10%-20%. The ideal target at the beginning of the year is annual sales of 306,000 vehicles, and the adjusted sales volume is expected to be 336,000-366,000 vehicles.

According to the latest data released by Ideal, its delivery volume in the second quarter reached 86,533 vehicles, up 201.6% year-on-year and 65% quarter-on-quarter. And delivered 34,134 vehicles in July.

In terms of production capacity closely related to the delivery volume, the "Buer Research" found that the annual production capacity of the ideal Changzhou factory in 2020 will be about 100,000 vehicles, and the annual production capacity of the factory will increase to 200,000 vehicles after upgrading.

After the release of Q3 financial report in 2022, Shen Yanan, the ideal co-founder and president, announced his resignation. He helped LI choose to build his own factory in Changzhou. This adjustment is regarded as a large-scale change since the establishment of Ideal.

At the ideal second-quarter financial report meeting on August 8, Li Xiang said that at present, due to the influence of supplier supply, the production capacity is in a bottleneck.

Earlier, there were media reports that Ideality was contacting Beijing Hyundai and hoped to receive its first factory that had stopped production. At present, the Beijing base is expected to be officially put into production at the end of this year. In addition, it is reported that the production plan of the ideal third factory, Chongqing production base, has stopped.

According to "Buer Research", if we want to achieve production and sales of 1.6 million vehicles in 2025, we need a strong production capacity reserve. The only Changzhou factory and Beijing factory may not have enough production capacity to carry their delivery demand, so the construction of new factories is imminent.

Previously, compared with the other two new car-making forces, the ideal offline layout was not dominant and is currently accelerating.

By June 30, 2023, LI had operated 331 retail stores covering 127 cities. In addition, LI operates 323 after-sales maintenance centers and authorized car body and painting centers in 223 cities.

When Internet companies such as Baidu and Xiaomi went off to build cars one after another, the war of new energy vehicles intensified. Regarding the cross-border showstopper, Li wants to speak frankly about the car, saying that the car sales can’t be faked, and the final development depends on the final product.

Although LI is speeding up its running, will Li Xiang’s Flag fall down under many skinny realities?

"Ideal" meets the cold reality

Although the ideal delivery volume since 2023 has been leading the new domestic car-making forces, LI still considers 2023 as "Alexander". In particular, the head car companies headed by Tesla started a price war, which caught the industry off guard.

However, as a "hardware for traffic portal, software for charging service", Tesla model seems to bring new imagination space for new energy vehicles.

When the income of Tucki XPILOT software and Weilai NIOPILOT software increased, Li Xiang declared: "The new Li ONE autopilot is standard, and the future ideal will not charge for autopilot".

"With the development of smart cars, there will be more and more usage scenarios for users and more and more business models." Li wants to put his hopes on another possibility of business model innovation, but it needs to be built on the basis of ownership.

Che Gewana once said, let’s be loyal to our ideals and face reality. On the increasingly crowded track, Li wants to be loyal to his ideals, but he also needs to face reality: the day after tomorrow of new energy vehicles is beautiful, and today is very difficult. The key is whether he can survive tomorrow.

The first computer in new China: from scratch, it ranks among the top in the world.

  China news agency, Beijing, September 6 (Chen Ying) As the world’s largest computer manufacturing base, China’s computer industry has now ranked first in the world.

  According to the data released by the "2019 World Computer Conference" held in July this year, in 2018, China’s computer industry achieved a main business income of 1.95 trillion yuan, an increase of 8.7% year-on-year; The output of microcomputers is 310 million, and the annual output of servers reaches 2.952 million.

  It is hard for people today to imagine that China’s first electronic computer — — 103 computers, covering an area of 40 square meters, with an operation speed of only 30 times per second.

  In January 1953, Hua Luogeng was ordered to set up the first computer research group in China in the newly established Institute of Mathematics of China Academy of Sciences, with Professor Min Dake of Tsinghua University Electrical Engineering Department as the team leader. The goal of this group was to develop China’s own computer.

  In April 1956, when Premier Zhou Enlai personally led the formulation of a 12-year long-term outline of scientific and technological development, Hua Luogeng was appointed as the head of the computing technology planning group, responsible for drafting the blueprint for the development of computer industry in China. As a result of the implementation of the plan, the Institute of Computing Technology of Chinese Academy of Sciences was born.

  In 1956, the Preparatory Committee of Institute of Computing Technology of Chinese Academy of Sciences was established in China, and the design of the first small computer 103 in China was completed. It took 8 months for the State-owned 738 Factory to manufacture this computer.

  In the field of computers, everything is "big" at the beginning. The first computer in New China covers an area of 40 square meters with only a few large cabinets in the mainframe, and there are nearly 4,000 semiconductor germanium diodes and 800 electron tubes in the body.

  On August 1st, 1958, Computer 103 completed the operation of four instructions, which marked the official birth of the first universal digital electronic computer made by China people.

  The 103 computer adopts magnetic core and drum memory, the memory is only 1KB, and the operation speed is 30 times per second. Only one year later, the 104 computer came out successfully, and the computing speed increased to 10 thousand times per second. From 30 times to 10 thousand times, it only took more than a year.

  Since the founding of New China 70 years ago, China’s computer R&D and manufacturing have not only developed from scratch, but also reached the forefront of the world.

  Supercomputer is a kind of computer with the strongest function, the fastest operation speed and the largest storage capacity. It is mostly used in national high-tech fields and cutting-edge technology research, and is one of the important indicators to measure the level of national scientific and technological development and comprehensive national strength.

  The first billionth supercomputer in China was "Yinhe -I" developed by the Computer Research Institute of National University of Defense Technology. Its operation speed is more than 100 million times per second.

Recently, "tourism partners are accused of being involved in pornography" has attracted attention.It is reported that some netizens found on a social platform that "all-inclusive travel expenses" is becoming a code word. Under the eye-catching title of such posts, it is usually indicated that "girls only, each takes what he needs". In response to this matter, on the 30 th, the relevant staff of the social platform said that at present, a full-scale review has been carried out for the notes related to the "travel partner" in the station, and the problems reflected by the users mentioned in the article have not yet been located. Once the illegal content is verified, the illegal users will be seriously dealt with according to the law.(August 31st. China News Network)

With the fiery travel, young people are eager to complete a beautiful trip with the partners who resonate with the same frequency, and the "travel partner" comes into being. Behind the "tourism partner", it reflects the new needs of the younger generation in social and tourism consumption. They find travel companions through social media platforms or specific applications and reach a consensus on travel. This way encourages people to get out of the comfort zone, establish contact with strangers and create a unique and unforgettable travel experience together. However, the beautiful vision of sharing travel experiences has changed in social media platforms.

The emergence of new things is bound to be accompanied by some new problems, and the disadvantages of social interaction are gradually emerging. Some lawless elementsBorrowThe name of the child, the fact of illegal transactions, makes the original pure travel contract a tool for illegal crimes. Social networking with partners is plagued by abuse and misleading on social media platforms: for example, words such as "all-inclusive expenses, optional location" or "girls only, each with his own needs" appear from time to time in the copywriting, and some users even mentioned that they were asked if they were looking for a "green partner". The dissemination of this information not onlyGedaSub-socialization itself casts a shadow, which raises people’s concerns about their privacy and security. The existence of this kind of behavior has undoubtedly pushed the social interaction of partners to the forefront of morality and law, and the future development of social interaction of partners has become vague and uncertain.

The response of the platform involved has taken a positive step.DandaThe abuse of sub-socialization exists not only in one platform, but also in other social platforms. Therefore, all major social platforms should strengthen the audit mechanism, strengthen the monitoring and control of platform content, and contribute to optimizing the network ecological environment. Government departments also need to continue to exert their efforts in supervision, formulate relevant laws and regulations, and severely punish the abuse of social partners for illegal transactions. In addition, the public’s own risk awareness and moral values are equally important. Virtual identities on the Internet are often difficult to distinguish, and it is not uncommon to transmit illegal information through obvious words and expressions. In social networks, users should be rational, keep their eyes open while holding a group to keep warm, and not be blinded by superficial information to prevent the infringement of criminals.

In today’s society full of alienation and social pressure, partner socialization provides a unique and beneficial way for some people to interact. We can’t let the behavior of a few abusers,And denyThe positive value of social interaction. Therefore, all sectors of society need to work together to protect the purity and legitimacy of partner socialization, and strive to ensure that partner socialization is not distorted as a tool for illegal transactions while meeting people’s social needs, so that partner culture can continue to radiate warmth and friendliness and bring positive energy to society.

"Two Prides in a Family", which began to be serialized in 1966, is a masterpiece among them, and has been adapted into film and television works for many times, which is very popular among the audience.


The animated version of "Double Pride" mainly tells the story that Xiaoyu and Hua Wuque started their Jianghu trips from the Villain’s Valley and the Flower Palace respectively, and in the process, they never met each other and went to appreciate each other, and then joined forces to fight against the villains. The tortuous and bizarre life experience adds a "sad" background to the fate of the two brothers who were forced to separate since childhood. Because of this, the two people showed their indomitable and unyielding qualities in their respective growth processes, such as "getting out of the mud without being stained", which moved countless audiences.


In the animation, the two brothers joined hands with the heroine Tie Xinlan to fight against the five villains, the twelve astrologers and the villain Jiang Yulang.

For a long time, no matter how the external environment changes, Chinese people have always maintained a high degree of reverence and praise for chivalrous spirits such as gratitude, honesty and trustworthiness, once upon a time in america, etc., and thus many literary and film works have been born, constantly conveying the feelings and righteousness, kindness and warmth in the world. It can be said that "chivalrous spirit" has become one of the unique cultural business cards of the Chinese nation.

The little fish holds a short knife in each hand, dressed in red cloth, tied with a rope and a bag around his waist, with weeds in his mouth and unruly eyes, and his lively and agile image temperament is also vivid; In addition, the overall line design of these two shadow puppetry works is also very fine. The lines and patterns on the clothes of Xiaoyuer and Hua Wuque are very clear, vivid and have ancient charm. Once they were launched, they won praise from the audience.


Shadow play originated in the Western Han Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago and originated in Shaanxi Province, China. In Huazhou District, Weinan City, Shaanxi Province, the hometown of shadow play in China, Wang Haiyan, the non-genetic inheritor of Wang’s shadow play, has been committed to the combination and promotion of national culture and intangible heritage for many years, and has designed many exquisite and heritage-rich handicraft works for various cultural products, including movies, cartoons and games.

At the same time, martial arts culture, like shadow play, belongs to Chinese treasures, and classics need to be passed down. In this activity, the swordsman spirit carried in the classic IP of "Two Prides in a Family" was presented in a more vivid and diverse way in the combined narrative of "animation+shadow play", and the shadow play handicraft works with multiple artistic values such as aesthetics and collection were produced, which were welcomed by young audiences. This is of great significance for young audiences to feel the charm of Chinese culture and enhance their cultural self-confidence and cultural identity.
