The ambition of byte music, the dilemma of left and right fighting each other

Is the future of online music as optimistic as some people in the industry expected? I’m afraid there’s a question mark. 

On March 22nd, Tencent Music announced its 2021Q4 and full-year financial report. Online music MAU decreased by 1% year-on-year, social entertainment MAU decreased by 21.5% year-on-year, and its net profit in 2021 decreased by 27% year-on-year. In the fourth quarter of 2021, net profit decreased by 55% year-on-year. 

In this context, the total revenue has further increased, and the performance highlight of paying users increasing by 20 million year-on-year is not enough. However, Tencent Music is the leading streaming music group in the world. 

Last April, Tencent Music changed coaches. I had expected some better changes in this company. But today, it has been nearly a year since Liang Zhu took over as CEO, and the situation facing the company is still hard to say optimistic. 

Tencent Music’s conference call further pointed out that the total revenue in the first quarter is expected to drop by about 15-17%, mainly based on the macro and competitive challenges faced by live broadcast. 

In the competition, how short videos impact the online music market has become an unavoidable problem in discussing the development of the industry.

Therefore, when ByteDance focused on the online music track, it brought an indescribable excitement to the whole market. 

On the bright side, after the exclusive copyright of online music was banned last year, copyright oauth2.0 is a general trend, which seems to be a great benefit to new players. At the same time, in recent years, under the devastating baptism of short videos to music culture, the old rules seem to have been broken. 

It is in this context that ByteDance first upgraded its music business to P1-level priority business, launched the Galaxy Ark music distribution business, and upgraded its musicians to serve as a hot Galaxy platform. Recently; Also officially launched the music APP "Soda Music".

The online music market, which has been silent for a long time, has great expectations from spoiling the game to entering the game. 

Can soda music bring great changes to music streaming media? 

At present, the discussion of this issue in the industry media focuses more on the "product innovation" of soda music. 

But what does online music business mean for ByteDance? Where is the real breaking point of byte music? 

In the view of Shentong Business, the "product model innovation" of soda music may not be the future of ByteDance. How to develop a new "business model" is the key to byte music and even the whole industry. 

As a matter of fact, the differences in product models that provide streaming music services are not enough to become competitive, and the competitiveness lies in the differences in content.Because of the great differences in personal music tastes and creations, there is no standardized solution. 

As far as the current situation of the industry is concerned, the copyright content will become the core problem that restricts the development of soda music for positioning streaming media services. This paper mainly analyzes the practical problems in the development of ByteDance’s music business: 

1. Can ByteDance pay the copyright owner a satisfactory consideration?

2. The exorbitant copyright transaction price in the current market is beyond the digestion (rather than affordability) of byte music business;

3. The music business cannot provide cash flow support for bytes in a short time.

 The July 24 penalty order has brought some hope to the industry, but the situation is not optimistic enough.— —Even in the so-called "post-exclusive copyright era", the core problem of high copyright cost is still difficult to break through. 

On the one hand, according to the industry news learned by Shentong Business,Many "all-round and open copyright negotiations" are stuck in the issue of "price", which is related to the existing interests of copyright owners and is difficult to promote. 

On the other hand, international music copyright investment mergers and acquisitions are frequent, which may further raise the global music copyright price in the later period.In the first four months of 2021, the global music acquisition and music library investment reached $7 billion, and the price of popular songs increased by 20-35 times, with Indian and China markets as the focus. 

It is worth noting that many transactions and authorizations of head copyright are split transactions, which will further increase the difficulty of "collecting stamps" copyright on streaming media platforms. Bob Dylan’s copyright transactions with a total price of about 500 million US dollars are distributed in Universal and Sony.

 In the abnormal copyright business, big record companies have too many negotiating advantages. 

According to the MRC report, in 2021, the proportion of recorded music released for more than 18 months on the American music streaming platform further increased from 66.4% in 2020 to 74.5%, and nearly three-quarters of it means — —

Without copyright, there would be no online music service, which is a heavy reality that ByteDance can’t avoid.

 On the other hand, the proportion of "music copyright in stock" has been greatly increased, and the streaming media broadcast volume of new songs is declining.Online music services have gained more older users, and young users have also shown their preference for old songs, which will provide a basis for the copyright value of "old songs". 

In a short period of time, the streaming music platform is rightThe dependence on "stock music copyright" will still drag down the normal development of the whole industry.— — ByteDance, a newcomer, needs to face this problem sooner or later. 

Last September, Late reported that since June 2021, Byte has invested no less than 1 billion yuan in music copyright. On the other hand, the strategy focuses on purchasing original songs and signing long-term cooperation with online celebrity Talent. 

But frankly speaking, 1 billion yuan is sufficient for the logic of byte purchase at that time, but it can only be said that it is a drop in the bucket for streaming media services. 

Needless to say, in the era of exclusive copyright, the content of a single head record company soared to the transaction price of 100 million; In contrast, in October last year, Blackstone injected $1 billion into the new Hipgnosis Fund for the acquisition of music rights. 

For Byte, the biggest problem is not how much money it can pay, but whether the cost of its copyright expenditure can be digested in its business development. 

Theoretically, after the July 24 penalty order, the "copyright mountain" of the music industry has changed from a market subject to the copyright market price itself. It is more realistic for copyright transactions to return to the long market negotiation and adjustment. On the market level, the current demand of domestic online music platforms for copyright owners to reduce prices is a trend deviation from the background of rising global music copyright costs — — The expectation of falling music copyright price is still not optimistic in the short term. 

At present, ByteDance has copyright cooperation with the three major record companies in the world, but its use scope is still limited to short videos and related extension services. For ByteDance, it is not the right time to trade the copyright of full-length head music. 

Let musicians stay in the Tik Tok system and let more mature musicians enter Tik Tok — — Perhaps it is the most appropriate goal for the development of byte music business at present. 

In recent years, the general mode of ByteDance’s new business is basically: first, as a traffic platform to undertake related advertising business, games, online education, e-commerce, and then directly enter the market at a suitable time. 

In the era of online video, music has always been the hottest field. Nowadays, more and more songs have become popular in Tik Tok, and the effectiveness of short videos in music communication has long been valued by streaming media platforms. Tencent Music and Netease Cloud Music are all trying to make efforts in the innovation and support of short video products. 

This means that,Musicians not only flow between music platforms, but also flow between short videos and music platforms.For music creators who became popular through Tik Tok and bilibili,The natural innovation and short popularity of short videos are the inherent limitations that restrict their development to more professional musicians. 

When the industrialized and more complete music platform invites short video musicians, the loss will inevitably occur on the short video platform. 

In fact, short video has become an important link in the modern music industry, such as the distribution service of Galaxy Ark, which is still a business closely linked with traditional streaming media. The Red Star River is nothing more than a musician’s version of the "Creator Support Program".

In addition, another key point is that, unlike the previous games, online education and e-commerce businesses,Online music business is not a business that can bring cash flow in a short time, which will affect Byte’s determination to invest in music to some extent. 

Expect the majority of C-end users to recharge their music experience, and look at ARPPU, where two domestic music giants are wandering below 10 yuan, and you will know that there is still a long way to go. 

Even in the film and television industry, which is highly dependent on incremental content, the high content cost is still difficult to be solved by self-control. For the music market based on "inventory copyright", the inequality of copyright transactions is almost a fateful problem. 

In the early years, the expansion of Tencent Music was based on the game of burning money, but in today’s Internet environment, whether for the music industry or ByteDance,Commercialization will be the top priority from the beginning.

For the massive traffic resources of bytes, the in-depth exploration of music business will gain more realistic benefits for byte music from streaming media platforms, copyright parties and advertisers. This means that in a short time, byte music will still be highly dependent on the Tik Tok system.

To put it simply, from the perspective of monetization, the return rate of games and e-commerce is higher, and within the limited traffic distribution, the resources that Tik Tok system can give to music business are insufficient. However, the failure to "de-Tik Tok" will also restrict the further independent development of its music business.

Compared with the original music business, the biggest change of soda music is not the innovation of product model, but the exploration of paid business model based on copyright content.. 

At present, soda music has been launched on the paid membership system and digital album sales, and the membership price is low. 

In today’s huge byte business system, payment has always been a very lacking business model. Wukong question and answer, online education, etc. had the opportunity to go further in the payment model, but they have all been defeated; The byte game business, with reference to the development of Ali Linxi Entertainment, still needs breakthroughs in research and development and opportunities. 

However, the paid service of online music is really a choice with long payback period; Coupled with the purchase restriction of digital albums since last year, at present,The online music business income of the whole industry still only has the significance of equalizing the cost level. 

According to the conference call of Tencent Music Financial Report, it is expected that the online music business will break even at the operational level in 2022. This is enough to show the difficulty of making profits in online music business. 

The music industry is largely driven by streaming media, but direct sales to fans are the largest share of most artists’ income.Does the online music platform exploit musicians? 

Maybe not. 

The first financial report disclosed by Universal Music Group at the beginning of the month showed that in fiscal year 2021, the company’s revenue was 8.504 billion euros, an increase of 14.4% compared with 2020, and an increase of 17.0% at a fixed exchange rate. Operating profit reached 1.399 billion euros, a year-on-year increase of 15.4%.      

Subscription and streaming media revenue are still the main sources of performance of copyright giants such as Universal, and are increasing year by year. 

On a global scale, the contradiction between musicians and online music platforms is still fermenting, and more and more musicians try to bypass the music platform to release their works. In 2021, independent musicians earned $9.9 million on the musician website Bandzoogle. 

For ByteDance, who is at the forefront of the global social media wave, it is indeed the most appropriate way to combine the advantages of its creator ecology with the wave of independent music. 

In the process of ByteDance’s rapid growth to a new level of Internet in China, the "traffic advertising model" is almost the only pillar of its commercialization. In essence, ByteDance is still an "advertising behemoth". In recent years, the expansion of Byte to e-commerce, games and even corporate services all shows anxiety before the peak of traffic. 

The diversification of business models often points not only to the growth of business space, but also to the only way for enterprises to feel safe. 

The product model of soda music, to some extent, shows that Byte is not determined enough to develop the music business, but this may not be a bad thing. 

If you know enough about the online music business, you will know that the situation of a renewed war is unlikely to happen. The industry will still slide on the old road for a long time before the long-standing disadvantages are broken. 

Byte music is busy fighting left and right. Don’t expect too much for the time being.

Test drive a new generation of Magotan B9 and redefine the driving standard of mid-level cars.

Since its debut, FAW-Volkswagen B9 has quickly won enthusiastic response from the market with its diversified configuration options, especially its 1.5T high-efficiency power system, which shows more outstanding performance compared with the one launched in the same period, and has become the first choice in the hearts of many consumers. So, what remarkable changes has this Magotan B9 brought? How impressive is its actual performance? Let’s explore together. Magotan B9 also performs well in sound insulation, and its body structure and the use of sound insulation materials effectively isolate the noise inside the car. Both urban driving and high-speed cruising can provide drivers and passengers with a quieter ride environment. In contrast, Passat Pro’s sound insulation effect is slightly insufficient.

Body size comparison, performance of Magotan B9

The body size of Magotan B9 is 4990*1854*1487mm, and the wheelbase is 2871mm. Compared with the old models, the size of Magotan B9 is a big circle, which belongs to the mainstream level in the same class, and the interior space has also been greatly improved.

Larger air intake grille and exquisite chrome decoration

On the front face, the new Magotan B9 adopts a larger air intake grille design, and the chrome decoration also highlights the exquisiteness of the vehicle, which is closely connected with the whole China Net. The diversion grooves and fog lamps on both sides of the bottom form a sports kit, which is also the difference between the Magotan B9 and the old models. In addition, the front enclosure is decorated with a honeycomb grid and a diffuser is designed to enhance the sense of movement of the vehicle. Coming to the side of the car body, the new Magotan B9 is not much different from the design of the old models in terms of lines. The sharp waistline runs from the front of the car to the rear of the car, lengthening the visual effect of the vehicle. The side skirt is decorated with chrome plating, so you don’t have to worry about bumping when the vehicle is driving in bad road conditions. In terms of the rear end, the Magotan B9 model has not changed much, and the penetrating taillight components have high recognition after lighting. The rear enclosure is also designed in a sporty way to show the difference between Magotan B9. The rear enclosure is decorated with chrome, and the diffuser decoration is designed in the middle, and the exhaust pipe decoration is cancelled.

Central control led by big screen, analysis of new Magotan B9 configuration.

After arriving in the car, the interior design of Magotan B9 hasn’t changed much, but the details have been adjusted. The automatic comfort type and the automatic enterprising type adopt an 8-inch central control screen, while the automatic enjoyment type and the automatic luxury type adopt a 9.2-inch central control screen. Unfortunately, the wireless charging of the mobile phone is changed to optional. A penetrating air outlet is added to the center console to enhance the sense of interior grade, and a roller shutter is also added to the cup holder area, with little change in other aspects. The steering wheel adopts a flat-bottomed design, which increases the sports atmosphere of the interior. Magotan B9 comes standard with tire pressure reminder, cruise control, automatic parking, uphill assist, engine start and stop, LED daytime running lights, automatic air conditioning, rear seat air outlet, temperature zone control, heating, electric folding, automatic folding after locking, etc. As a joint venture medium-sized car, this configuration is relatively rich.

Strong performance of 1.5T and 2.0T engines.

Magotan B9 is equipped with 1.5T and 2.0T engines, matching with a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Among them, the 2.0T turbocharged four-cylinder engine has a maximum power of 220 HP and a peak torque of 350 Nm. Equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox, it provides four driving modes: economy, comfort, sports and personalization to meet different driving needs. The official acceleration time of 100 kilometers is 7.4 seconds, while the comprehensive fuel consumption of WLTC is only 6.71L/100km, which shows excellent performance and low fuel consumption. Therefore, the overall power and acceleration feeling of Magotan B9 is still excellent. In addition, the comprehensive fuel consumption of the 1.5T model is 5.85 liters per 100 kilometers, which has more obvious advantages in fuel economy.

Generally speaking, this car is still very good. MagotanB9 and Magotan B9 are national family cars. The new generation of Magotan B9, which has just been listed, seems to stand out from the crowd. The novel design and larger interior space also make it a little fresh. Of course, Magotan B9 still has the aura of "national sedan", which is probably the only place where Magotan B9 is higher than other models. What do you think of this car? Some netizens teased: There is no national sedan outside Magotan B9.

Read China for ten years | The scale of foreign trade has reached a new high and new breakthroughs have been continuously achieved.

  Since the beginning of this year, China’s foreign trade has withstood the pressure and shown strong resilience: in the first 11 months, the total import and export value of goods trade was 37.96 trillion yuan, achieving positive growth year-on-year for two consecutive months, and the stabilization trend continued to consolidate.

  As one of the "Troika" driving economic growth, foreign trade plays an important role in driving consumption, expanding employment and promoting economic growth.

  In 2018 and 2022, the scale of foreign trade has successively passed the 30 trillion yuan and 40 trillion yuan mark. Since 2017, it has maintained its position as the largest country in goods trade for six consecutive years, and the trade volume of goods with countries that jointly built the "Belt and Road" has increased by 8% annually & hellip; … Since the new era, China’s foreign trade development has continuously achieved new breakthroughs.

  "It is necessary to speed up the transition from a big trading country to a strong trading country, consolidate the traditional advantages of foreign trade, cultivate new competitive advantages, expand the development space of foreign trade and actively expand imports." On December 5, 2014, during the 19th collective study in the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, the important exposition of the Supreme Leader General Secretary pointed out the direction for promoting the high-quality development of foreign trade.

  Since the new era, China’s position in global trade has improved significantly — —

  During the decade from 2013 to 2022, a series of data confirmed the solid pace of China’s foreign trade development: in 2020, the total trade in goods and services surpassed the United States for the first time and became the largest trading country in the world; The import and export scale of cross-border e-commerce in China has increased from 1 trillion yuan in 2018 to 2 trillion yuan in 2022, entering a period of rapid development; In 2022, the international market share of exports further increased to 14.7%, ranking first in the world for 14 consecutive years … …

  "The steadily expanding scale, continuously optimized structure and increasing international market share all confirm that the high-quality development of China’s foreign trade is fast and steady." Zhuang Rui, Executive Dean of university of international business and economics Institute of International Economics, said that China is advancing from a big trading country to a powerful trading country, which has provided strong support for stabilizing the macro-economic market.

  The quality and efficiency of China’s foreign trade have been continuously improved, and new kinetic energy has been continuously released — —

  The just-concluded Central Economic Work Conference clearly pointed out that it is necessary to speed up the cultivation of new kinetic energy of foreign trade, consolidate the basic disk of foreign trade and foreign capital, and expand intermediate trade, service trade, digital trade and cross-border e-commerce export.

  In recent years, the "new three kinds" represented by electric manned vehicles, solar cells and lithium batteries have become hot words in the field of foreign trade, and they are the representatives of accelerating the upgrading of foreign trade. In 2022, the export growth rate of China’s electric manned vehicles, solar cells, lithium batteries and other green and low-carbon products all exceeded 60%, and the new export kinetic energy grew rapidly.

  Since the new era, the vitality of China’s foreign trade entities has been effectively stimulated by accelerating reform and innovation, smoothing logistics channels, continuously optimizing the business environment at ports, and increasing support for small and medium-sized enterprises. In 2022, the number of foreign trade enterprises with import and export performance increased by 5.6% over the previous year. Among them, private enterprises gradually grew into the "main force" of foreign trade, accounting for more than half of the annual import and export scale for the first time, and contributing 80.8% to China’s foreign trade growth.

  China’s foreign trade "friend circle" has been further expanded — —

  In addition to maintaining close ties with traditional market trading partners, China is also actively exploring emerging markets such as ASEAN, Africa, Latin America and Central Asia. From 2013 to October 2023, the total import and export volume of China and the countries that jointly built the "Belt and Road" exceeded 21 trillion US dollars. Among them, in terms of RMB, China’s import and export to co-construction countries increased by 19.4% year-on-year in 2022, accounting for 32.9% of China’s total foreign trade value, up by 3.2 percentage points; Imports and exports to other member countries of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) increased by 7.5% year-on-year; Exports to Africa and Latin America increased by 14.8% and 14.1% respectively.

  Zhang Yu, director of the International Economic and Trade Research Office of the Institute of Finance and Economics of China Academy of Social Sciences, said that while adhering to a high level of opening up, the effective implementation of RCEP and the continuous expansion of the "Belt and Road" and "friends circle" have opened up new space for deepening foreign trade development. In addition, international economic and trade events including Service Trade Fair, Consumer Expo, Canton Fair and China International Import Expo(CIIE) have also opened new channels for foreign trade transformation and upgrading.

  At present, the external environment is turbulent, economic factors and non-economic factors are intertwined, and China’s foreign trade development still faces many difficulties and challenges. In response to this situation, China has continuously strengthened top-level design and continuously improved its foreign trade policy system.

  The General Office of the State Council has successively issued a series of important documents, such as Implementation Opinions on Promoting the Innovative Development of Foreign Trade, Opinions on Promoting the Stable Scale and Excellent Structure of Foreign Trade, and Several Measures on Accelerating the Integrated Development of Domestic and Foreign Trade, which further clarified the path and direction for cultivating new formats, building a platform system, deepening reform and opening up, and creating a legalized, international and convenient trade environment.

  Zhuang Rui said: China’s foreign trade and industrial fields are constantly advancing in system innovation, scientific and technological innovation, mode innovation and format innovation. Under this background, it is very important to deepen the domestic market and explore the international market to further improve the quality and efficiency of foreign trade. Facing the complicated and severe international situation, China should give full play to the positive role of foreign trade in building a new development pattern and bring more warmth and dividends to the world economy.

Part of the list of "China Legion" was officially announced (Photos)

  ■ Reporter Zhang? Zhang Jianqiang and Zhou Wanqi


  Yesterday was the deadline set by the International Olympic Committee for athletes to register for the Beijing Olympic Games. With the arrival of this date, the list of players in some events of "China Legion" has been announced one after another. An official of the State Sports General Administration revealed that the list of China sports delegation will be announced on July 25th, when the inaugural meeting of China delegation will be held.


  What are the mysteries in the list of some projects that have been announced so far?


  Men’s Football Team: "Dui Trace" is dying out.


  Yesterday was the deadline for national men’s soccer teams to report to FIFA the list of 18 people who will eventually participate in the Olympic Games. Zhu Ting, Shen Longyuan, Zhang Lu and Lin Dai were finally voted out of the list of 18 contestants.


  Some time ago, the Olympic team had just arrived in Changchun for training and had finalized a list of "18+4". At that time, in this list, the four players who became substitutes were Zhao Xuri, Hao Junmin, Lin Dai and Liu Zhenli. At that time, Dewey still had the command of the Olympic team’s training and competition, so Dewey naturally participated in the formulation of this "18+4" list. However, the original "18+4" list began to change subtly after Dewey left. After the warm-up match between the Olympic team and the Australian Olympic team last Sunday, it directly led to the adjustment of the list. In that warm-up match, Hao Junmin not only got the starting opportunity, but also performed well. Although Zhao Xuri came off the bench, he scored the only goal. Their status made the coaching staff finally decide to put them back on the 18-person list.


  In the position of goalkeeper, Zhang Lu and Liu Zhenli are both substitutes, and their strength is similar. In the end, the coaching staff decided to keep Liu Zhenli in the 18-man list and eliminated Zhang Lu from the perspective of his richer experience in the Super League. Although there are rumors that Wang Yongpo, Mao Jianqing and others have returned to the Olympic team, according to the rules of the Olympic football competition, except for the "tragedies" like Hai and Qu Feifei, the doors of Wang Yongpo and Mao Jianqing’s return to the Olympic team have been completely closed.


  After Hao Junmin and Zhao Xuri re-entered the 18-man list, which two players to choose as substitutes was a headache for the Olympic coaching staff. However, judging from the details that Shen Longyuan came off the bench in the second half of the China-Australia War but was replaced before the end of the game, the outside world has already noticed that Shen Yuanlong’s situation is very dangerous. Sure enough, Shen Longyuan was finally excluded from the list of 18 people. There are two reasons for his defeat: one is that he is injured at present, which affects the recovery of his state; Secondly, his position is relatively simple, and he can only play right avant-garde.


  As for Zhu Ting, in the "Duy era", he was an absolute main force in both the Olympic team and the national team. However, through the top 20 matches of the national football team, almost everyone saw Zhu Ting’s weakness-he can only run but not score goals. In the last two warm-up matches of the Olympic team, Zhu Ting has stopped playing, and it is not surprising that Zhu Ting lost the election this time. However, the defeat of Zhu Ting and Shen Longyuan, two love generals of Dewey, will make people feel that the Olympic team is deliberately cleaning the traces left by Dewey.


  List of 18 members of China Olympic team


  Goalkeepers: Shengjiong Qiu and Liu Zhenli.


  Defenders: Li Weifeng, Yuan Weiwei, Feng Xiaoting, Wan Houliang, Tan Wangsong and Lv Jianjun.


  Midfielders: Zheng Zhi, Zhao Xuri, Zhou Haibin, Kelvin Cui, Hao Junmin and Chen Tao.


  Forward: Jiang Ning, Han Peng, Dong Fangzhuo and Gao Lin.

  Shen Longyuan, Zhu Ting, Lin Dai, Zhang Lu


  Women’s Football Team: Guangdong’s Xie Caixia was lucky to be shortlisted.


  On July 21st, the day after China beat New Zealand 1-0 in the warm-up match, the 22-member list of China women’s football team participating in the Olympic Games was announced in advance. Because Qu Feifei was seriously injured in the Sino-Singapore warm-up match, the big list changed slightly. Five players, Liu Yali, Song Xiaoli, Lou Xiaoxu, Wei Xiaofen and Qu Feifei, left the team, while veteran Xie Caixia from Guangdong was lucky to stay in the 22-player list.


  Xie Caixia, a 32-year-old, didn’t play much in the recent warm-up match of China women’s football team. However, due to Qu Feifei’s fractured fibula in her left leg, she dared not use too many small players in the team for such a large-scale event as the Olympic Games. Xie Caixia has rich experience in playing both the winger and the midfielder, so China women’s football team finally chose veteran Xie Caixia instead of Song Xiaoli.


  Three goalkeepers were used in this 22-person roster, namely Zhang Yanru, Han Wenxia and Weng Xiaojie. It is not surprising that Wei Xiaofen, who has been playing as the fourth goalkeeper, went out. Veteran Liu Yali once again lost the chance to compete in the Olympic Games. Since Shang Ruihua took office, Liu Yali has been working hard, and she is also a versatile person valued by Shang Ruihua. However, the coaching staff finally had to give up her because of the continuous back injury. On the forward line, Lou Xiaoxu’s exit was directly caused by Ma Xiaoxu’s good performance in the game after his recent comeback.


  Although the list of 22 people has been confirmed, the registration rules for women’s football are different from those for men’s football. The women’s football team has the right to change the list of 18 players and 4 players 24 hours before the start of the game. Moreover, the China Women’s Football Team has only announced the list of 22 players, and the final list of 18 players has not yet been finalized.


  List of 22 women’s football players in China


  Goalkeepers: Han Wenxia, Zhang Yanru and Weng Xiaojie.


  Defenders: Jiang Shuai, Li Jie, Weng Xinzhi, Zhou Gaoping, Liu Huana, Yuan Fan and Kun Wang.


  Midcourt: Gu Yasha, Wang Dandan, Bi Yan, Zhang Na, Zhang Ying, Pu Wei, Lou Jiahui and Xie Caixia.


  Forward: Han Duan, Ma Xiaoxu, Xu Yuan and Liu Chan.


  Men’s Basketball Team: Zhang Kai Ding Jinhui left the team.


  Yesterday was the deadline set by the International Olympic Committee for athletes to register for the Beijing Olympic Games, and the China men’s basketball team also made layoffs. Ding Jinhui from Dongguan New Century Zhang Kai and Zhejiang Wanma became the last players to leave, while Zhang Qingpeng from Panpan, Liaoning Province and Chloe Wang from Bayi became the last two confirmed candidates.


  As early as the Stankovic Cup, there were rumors that Zhang Kai and Ding Jinhui would leave the team. They left the team first because of their poor performance in the second half of this year’s warm-up match, and the most important reason is that there is no shortage of people inside the China men’s basketball team. After Yao Ming’s return, China men’s basketball team has Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi in the center position, while Yi Jianlian and Du Feng in the power forward position. These people are indispensable figures in China men’s basketball team.


  However, the China men’s basketball team is short of perimeter staff. There are already four people in two positions on the perimeter, while there are only six people in three positions on the perimeter: Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng, Liu Wei, Sun Yue, Chen Jianghua and Li Nan. Chloe Wang and Zhang Qingpeng left this time are both perimeter players, which can be regarded as a supplement to the number of perimeter players. After determining the number, China men’s basketball team will compete in the Diamond Cup with a list of 12 players, and the preparations for the Olympic Games have also entered a sprint period.


  After the team name list was confirmed, the players of China Men’s Basketball Team spontaneously held a team discussion meeting, and the whole team sat together to discuss some topics.


  The biggest issue is the relationship between the internal and external lines, which is actually how to strengthen the tacit understanding with Yao Ming. "Before Dayao came back, we discussed how to better cooperate with Dayao." Zhu Fangyu said.


  China men’s basketball team also discussed how to deal with the relationship between the collective and the individual, how to get out of adversity and other topics. The team has the most heated discussion, and it is also the core topic of the discussion-how to treat the grouping situation.


  "This is the worst grouping result I can imagine." Yao Ming said, "Our opponents in the same group are very strong, but our goal will not change." In Group B, in addition to the Greek men’s basketball team and the German men’s basketball team, there are also the Spanish men’s basketball team, the American men’s basketball team and the African men’s basketball team.


  China men’s basketball team list of 12 players.


  Center: Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi.


  Power forwards: Yi Jianlian and Du Feng.


  Forward: Wang Shipeng, Zhu Fangyu, Li Nan and Chloe Wang.


  Defenders: Chen Jianghua, Wei Liu, Sun Yue and Zhang Qingpeng.


  Other projects: there is no special "surprise"


  In addition to football and men’s basketball, some lists of some sports were also unveiled in advance. However, these lists are obviously less suspenseful, belonging to "open guns", and they are also well-known points for the China delegation to compete for gold, so they failed to bring us special "surprises".


  In track and field events, Liu Xiang and Shi Dongpeng in the men’s 110m hurdles, Huang Xiaoxiao in the women’s 400m hurdles, Zhang Wenxiu in the women’s hammer throw and Zhou Chunxiu in the women’s marathon are all unsurprising candidates.


  In women’s tennis, China’s "Golden Flowers" are impressively listed. Zheng Jie, Li Na, Peng Shuai and YanZi take part in singles, while Zheng Jie/YanZi and Peng Shuai/Sun Tiantian play doubles.


  As a "dream team", there is no doubt about the list of China diving team. The women’s 3m springboard guarded by Guo Jingjing and Wu Minxia is the most sure event. The candidates for the women’s 10m platform are wangxin and Chen Ruolin, the men’s 3m springboard are He Chong, Qin Kai and Wang Feng, and the men’s 10m platform is Zhou Lvxin, Lin Yue and Huo Liang.


  Shooting is also the dominant event of the China delegation. Due to the transparency of selection and qualification, its list was published early. Tan Zongliang, Zhu Qinan, Jia Zhanbo, Du Li, Zhao Yinghui, viki and Chen Ying are all familiar names.


  As both advantageous events, the competition in gymnastics is fierce. Now only the men’s gymnastics is clear. Due to the strong comeback in the first half of this year, Li Xiaopeng broke into the Olympic team at the last minute. Li Xiaopeng, Yang Wei, Huang Xu, Chen Yibing, Zou Kai and Xiao Qin, the three old teams and three new teams, are indeed the strongest configurations of the China men’s gymnastics team at present. In contrast, the list of women’s gymnastics teams is relatively difficult to produce, because except Cheng Fei, Jiang Yuyuan, Yang Yilin and He Kexin, there are actually seven players competing for the remaining two places.


  The most interesting thing is that table tennis and badminton are both "still hiding half her face from us behind her guitar", and the entry list has been delayed. The only exception is the women’s singles of badminton. Because of the unstable performance of the "newcomers", Zhang Ning, a gold medalist and veteran of the Athens Olympic Games, finally played with Xie Xingfang.


  And some slightly unpopular events are still familiar names. In boxing, Zou Shiming plays in the 48kg class, while in Taekwondo, Chen Zhong, who is over 67kg class, strives for three consecutive championships, while in the 49kg class, Wu Jingyu, the upstart, guards it. In equestrian, Huatian has been hyping for too long.

How do merchants do instant retailing? One article clarifies the controversy and value.

Produce/browse the business

Author/Xue Xiang

Recently, two real-time retail data have attracted the attention of a glance at business.

One is that in a recent sharing, Xu Lingna, general manager of over the rainbow Lingzhi Mathematics Department, revealed that online sales in over the rainbow have soared in the past three years, accounting for nearly 30% of the total, while 20% of online sales in over the rainbow actually came from the time when stores closed from 10 pm to 9 am the next day. That is to say, the online instant retail in over the rainbow not only transferred the offline sales to online, but also obtained additional orders.

On the other hand, according to the data of China Chain Store & Franchise Association, in the past year, 67.2% of convenience store visitors decreased compared with last year, but in the case of declining passenger flow, the overall sales of convenience stores changed in the opposite direction. In 2022, the total sales of 64.1% convenience store enterprises still increased year-on-year, one of the main reasons was that they did instant retailing.

Actually,Both over the rainbow and convenience stores are the first batch of instant retail players, and they are pathfinders who have made achievements. Nowadays, more and more platforms and businesses begin to enter this track, and the industry has more and more different views on it.

dispute

Everything is divided into two parts, and the growth of any new thing is accompanied by controversy, and instant retailing is no exception.

After communicating with a number of retail industry practitioners, a glance at the business found that merchants’ worries about instant retailing are mainly reflected in the impact of mature retailers on husband and wife department stores after entering the network, as well as the order distribution of ordinary stores and pre-warehouses. The first batch of instant retail stores have made profits, so it is time to clarify the causes of the dispute and seek solutions.

Online retailing is the true mapping of offline commerce, and the competition between Shangchao convenience store and couples grocery store will certainly exist for a long time.

Consumers are used to online consumption, and this habit is irreversible. As the data at the beginning of the article shows, in the past year, the passenger flow of offline physical stores has been affected, and couples department stores are no exception. When supermarkets, convenience stores and other mature formats, relying on their own capital, technology and traffic advantages, transform to online in advance, the pressure on mom-and-pop stores is even greater.

Indeed, in front of offline mature retailers such as supermarkets, convenience stores, collection stores and discount stores, mom-and-pop stores will naturally be considered weak. At the same time, take-away food has a wider range of radiation, and stores in different blocks are likely to be placed on the same plane for competition. Therefore, it is easy to think that the online increase of supermarkets and convenience stores is obtained by seizing the market share of mom-and-pop stores.

This view has some truth, but obviously underestimates the vitality of the mom-and-pop shop.

First, instant retailing, no matter how to expand its business scope, will not let small stores compete with national brands, which is a local format after all. As long as it belongs to local retail, there will always be a place for couples’ shops, and no one knows the local ecology better than them.

Second, mature retailers often come into contact with new models more quickly, and competition will return to the same starting line after couples’ department stores join instant retailing. With the help of various online business tools, community stores can gain insight into demand faster and stock up flexibly.

Regarding the competition between ordinary stores and front warehouses, we believe that the two formats are dislocation competition and can coexist completely.

Whether it is an "amphibious" store or an online store, it is formed under the impetus of the outbreak of demand and the prosperity of supply. The core of instant retailing is local supply, and consumers will feel convenient only if the coverage rate of businesses in a certain area reaches a certain standard. Taking Meituan as an example, before the launch of new supply projects, some merchants started the pre-warehouse business spontaneously.

Besides,In a glance at the business, this kind of "pre-warehouse" and offline-oriented community stores, although there is competition, are more of a misplaced competitive relationship.

For these small shops, the front warehouse does not have the offline sales function, and many online orders of small shops are the increment brought by expanding the business radius, which does not affect the offline business. Consumers who used to visit small stores may also increase their shopping frequency because of the "home delivery" service. For community stores, the setting of online "starting price" will also increase the unit price of customers.

No matter in terms of product selection, service mode or customer acquisition method, the husband and wife shop can well adapt to the local people’s life and consumption habits, and can also be connected to the community group purchase to become a "group leader", flexibly expanding more convenient services, including making breakfast, receiving express delivery, printing faxes, weighing, and even walking dogs instead of surrounding residents.

value

The above problems mostly point to the possible competition between instant retailers. A glance at the business believes that online and offline integration is an inevitable trend. Instead of worrying about competition and opposition, businesses should study how to adapt to changes and give full play to their comparative advantages.

At present, instant retailing originates from the elimination of instant consumer demand. Thanks to the development of physical retailing in China, both the supply and demand sides are in the stage of increasing and expanding. As the report of the Ministry of Commerce recently predicted, instant retailing will cover more application scenarios.

First of all, the epidemic, e-commerce, pre-warehouse, and community group buying have made consumers more lazy. Changes in consumption habits have forced physical retail to enter the network, making home delivery a retail standard.

Secondly,The theme of retail has always been to reduce costs, improve efficiency and make consumers get more convenient services. The essence of the Internet platform is connectivity, which can match transactions by reducing the information gap. This is the case with the most prosperous online e-commerce in the past two decades. The traditional e-commerce supported by social logistics has become the Red Sea, and instant retailing is a new opportunity for physical stores, the main body that failed to profit from e-commerce in the past.

Finally, the first wave of merchants who have joined instant retailing have begun to get dividends, and the speed of merchants accessing the network will be faster and faster. Taking convenience stores as an example, the take-out ratio of the head stores of Henan Yuelai Yuexi can reach about 30%, which probably brings about a 50% increase. Instant retail orders for fresh food in Wuhan Today convenience store increased by 90%. At first, online orders were only 2,000+a month, and now there are more than 10,000 orders a month.

Wu Teng, vice president of Hebei 36524 convenience store, told a typical example. There are seven stores similar to them on a street in Shijiazhuang, and the latest order they took over was placed 30 meters across the road, and the delivery distance was no more than 100 meters. They bought iced drinks and snacks. If they don’t provide instant retail, this order will definitely miss them.

Under such circumstances, only doing a single channel has become a disadvantage. Even for large-scale chain retail enterprises, the outlets are dense enough, but it is inconvenient for consumers to come out or even want to come out, so they can only watch the orders fly away.

Therefore, a glance at the business believes that,For businesses that have set foot on instant retail ships, we should continue to adhere to and operate for a long time. For businesses that have not started to do instant retail online, we should shelve the debate and actively transform with reference to the operating experience of the first wave of online businesses.Moreover, from the commercial point of view, joining at this time also has advantages that the first wave of mature retailers do not have.

On the one hand, after years of development, the instant retail platform has developed a perfect digital system, which can enable small-scale community stores and small supermarkets to quickly access the network at low cost, saving a lot of technical investment;

On the other hand, the change of consumer habits means that the early stage of consumer education has ended. At this time, going online can not only expand the coverage of small stores, but also reduce the marginal cost of rent by adding new orders.

In addition, local supply is the foundation of real-time retail, and the key for physical stores to do real-time retail is to keep up with the real-time needs of local consumers. This is also a huge advantage for the mom-and-pop shop, which is already in the community and familiar with the surrounding environment.

Finally, let’s look at a set of news:

This year’s No.1 Document of the Central Committee mentioned instant retailing for the first time, pointing out that "the construction of county commercial system should be comprehensively promoted. Accelerate the improvement of county and rural e-commerce and express logistics distribution systems, build county-level collection and distribution centers, promote the integration of rural passenger and postal services, and vigorously develop new models such as joint distribution and instant retail. "

According to the estimation of China Chain Store & Franchise Association, from 2020 to 2021, the annual growth rate of instant retail will basically remain at 80% to 100%.

Obviously, the development of instant retailing is the general trend. Although there is some controversy, everyone is more worried about the possible uncertainty.

Throughout the history of human development, there are many uncertainties, but in the history of instant retailing, at least the achievements of the first wave of merchants such as supermarkets and convenience stores are certain, and the operation mode is also certain, so is the widening of the operating radius of mom-and-pop stores.

A glance at the business believes that the essence of instant retail is retail, so it is still a long-running business, and we can’t just look at short-term disputes. As long as merchants are good at tapping the unmet needs of offline and traditional e-commerce, as long as they turn traffic thinking into cost thinking, serve residents well in a limited radius and ponder over details, they can see more certainty in the instant retail field.

Strive to embark on a road of agricultural modernization with China characteristics

CCTV News:"Build an agricultural power with strong supply guarantee, strong scientific and technological equipment, strong management system, strong industrial resilience and strong competitiveness." On February 14th, the State Council held a series of press conferences on the theme of "Opening by Authoritative Departments" to introduce the key tasks of comprehensively promoting rural revitalization in 2023. Tang Renjian, director of the Office of the Central Leading Group for Rural Work and Minister of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said in response to a question from a CCTV reporter at the General Station that it is necessary to have the common characteristics of a powerful agricultural country, follow the general laws of agricultural modernization, and reflect China’s characteristics based on the national conditions.

Tang Renjian believes that the connotation of an agricultural power is very rich, including both the development of productive forces and the transformation of production relations; It includes not only the all-round upgrading of agriculture, but also the all-round progress of rural areas and the all-round development of farmers. On the one hand, we must have the common characteristics of a strong agricultural country. Although foreign modern agricultural powers have different resource endowments and institutional environments, and the performance of agricultural powers is also different, they have some common characteristics.We should follow the general laws of agricultural modernization., find gaps, fill shortcomings, promote advantages, and buildStrong supply guarantee, strong scientific and technological equipment, strong management system, strong industrial toughness and strong competitiveness.A powerful agricultural country. On the other hand, we should reflect the characteristics of China based on the national conditions. It is the key to cultivate crops and feed them, to stress water and soil in agriculture, and to build an agricultural power according to the national conditions and agricultural conditions and to solve practical problems by relying on our own strength. our countryThe resource endowment with a large population and little land, the historical background of farming civilization, and the requirements of the times for harmonious coexistence between man and nature.These three aspects determine us.We must rely on our own strength to secure the rice bowl, rely on the two-tier management system to develop agriculture, develop ecological low-carbon agriculture, continue farming civilization, and solidly promote common prosperity.. These reflect us.The characteristics of China, the national conditions and agricultural conditions of China., toStrive to embark on a road of agricultural modernization with China characteristics.

Building a strong agricultural country is a long-term task and systematic project, so we should pay attention to ways and means and grasp the timing and efficiency. First, accurately understand the work layout of agriculture, countryside and farmers. Building a strong agricultural country is in the same strain as comprehensively promoting rural revitalization, with the same goal and unified process. At present, we should focus on promoting rural revitalization in an all-round way, do a good job in connecting the policy system with the work system, keep the focus unchanged, change the theme, adjust the channels, and maintain the continuity of work. The second is to strengthen overall planning. Pay close attention to the study and formulation of plans to accelerate the construction of a strong agricultural country, and make overall planning and systematic arrangements.Connecting with the existing planning, we can’t make another set completely., clear road map construction drawing, solid and powerful, both convergence and innovation, do a good job in such a plan. The third is to highlight the actual results. Focus on solving the problemThe development of local agriculture and rural areas is the most urgent, and farmers have the strongest reaction.Practical problems ofIn fact, it falls into one specific livelihood fact, even including some.Key trivial matterIn fact, it has been a long time to make the peasants feel a real sense of gain, happiness and security in the process of rural revitalization.

Double eleven cold air has been delivered! National down jacket warning map released

  China Weather Network News "Others laugh at me for wearing thick clothes, and I laugh at others for being frozen." After a cold wave at the beginning of November, the cold air was uninterrupted, and many places in China experienced a night of winter. Today (November 10th), a new strong cold air has been delivered, with a sharp drop in temperature and a wide range of influence. It will go all the way south to northern South China, and 30 provincial-level cities will hit a new low in the second half of this year. Coincides with the "Double Eleven" period, it may not only be a shopping cart, but also a bone-chilling cold. China Weather Network launched a national early warning map of down jackets to see where it will experience bone-chilling cold, and it is necessary to wrap a long and thick down jacket.

  National down jacket warning map released, two-thirds of the country needs down jacket protection.

  At the beginning of November, affected by the cold wave, many places experienced a big reversal of cold and warm, taking off cool summer clothes and turning out warm equipment such as long pants and coats. However, the cooling is far from over, and a new cold air has been delivered. From now until the beginning of next week, a large-scale temperature bottoming contest will be held in the central and eastern regions of China, and 30 provincial-level cities will set a new low in the second half of this year.

bqdt

  According to Zhang Juan, a meteorologist of China Weather Network, this strong cold air process will boost the winter process in North China, Huanghuai and other places, and the impact will also go deep into the south, bringing about a big temperature dive, and two-thirds of the country needs down jackets to protect itself.

  According to the national early warning map of down jackets launched by China Weather Network, three days from now, Northeast China, Inner Mongolia and other places will experience the freezing cold, and the areas that need to wear down jackets will go south with the main body of cold air and reach the northern part of South China.

bqdt

  On November 10th, the main body of cold air mainly affects friends in the north, Qinghai, most of Tibet, the northeast and the central and eastern Inner Mongolia. The lowest temperature can be reduced to -20℃ to -15℃, and it will be frozen in minutes when going out, and the temperature is below freezing point during the day. It is necessary to wrap a long thick down jacket in cold weather all day. Most of Xinjiang, North China, Huanghuai, Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia and other places will also experience the cold below freezing point in the morning and evening. For example, the lowest temperature in Beijing dropped to -3℃ on the morning of the 11th, which will set a new low in the second half of this year, and it is also necessary to keep warm and wind-resistant down jackets.

bqdt

  On November 11th, with the cold air heading south, the highest temperature in most parts of the south of the Yangtze River will drop to around 15℃. Although it is not as chilly as the north, the temperature will also hit a new low in the second half of this year. Coupled with the rain, the wet and cold feeling is obvious, and it is not enough to wear a coat. You can apply for a down vest.

bqdt

  On November 12, cold air continued to penetrate south, and the area where down jackets were needed was extended to the south of the Yangtze River. Like Changsha, the highest temperature on the 12th will drop to 9℃, so it’s time to put on a down vest. As the temperature drops in eastern Inner Mongolia, northwestern Shanxi, northwestern Shaanxi and some places in Xinjiang, it will be frozen all day, so it is necessary to wrap a long thick down jacket when going out.

  After the cold wave crosses Nanling Mountain, its influence will be obviously weakened, and its influence on most parts of South China is a spent force. The cooling range is limited, and the maximum temperature will drop from 30℃ to about 20℃. The body feels slightly cool, long sleeves and coats are enough, and down jackets will continue to press the bottom of the box.

  How to choose down jackets these three misunderstandings need to be avoided.

  The footsteps of winter continue to press south, and the weather is getting colder and colder. Down jacket is essential as the ultimate warm artifact. China Weather Network has identified three misunderstandings in the selection of down jackets. Have you been recruited?

bqdt

  The quality of down jacket can be identified from the aspects of filler, bulkiness, softness and fabric, which can refer to the four-step method. At first glance, the filler can be identified. Check the label to find out the type and content of the filler. A down jacket with less than 50% cashmere can’t be called. Press twice to test the bulkiness. By pressing down the down jacket to test the bulkiness, the down jacket with high bulkiness has enough air layer to strengthen the warmth. Three touches, experience softness. Feel the softness of the down jacket by touching it. The down jacket with high softness has lower down stalk content and higher down feather content. Four beats, beat the down jacket to test whether the fabric is hairy.

  The strong cold air process coincides with the "Double Eleven", and many small partners’ goods have already flown on the road, and the rain and snow weather brought by cold air may affect the progress of logistics and distribution. Snowfall will occur in Xinjiang, Qinghai and other places, and logistics may be blocked; There will also be a large-scale precipitation and logistics slowdown in the south. Vehicles are easy to slip in snowfall weather, which increases the hidden danger of traffic accidents and thus affects the timeliness of logistics distribution. Express logistics enterprises need to pay special attention to weather forecast and early warning and other relevant information, make emergency plans for sudden weather changes, strengthen after-sales service links such as logistics distribution and cargo transshipment, and minimize the impact of disastrous weather on logistics and transportation.

  China Weather Network reminds us that this year’s "Double Eleven" express is under great pressure, and the delivery task of the courier brother is even more arduous due to the cold weather and inconvenient transportation caused by rainy and snowy days. If there is a short delay in delivery, everyone can give more tolerance and understanding. Finally, I wish everyone’s packages can arrive in time without being affected by the weather.

Beijing expert: Programming education in primary and secondary schools is by no means to cultivate "code farmers"

  BEIJING, Beijing, December 22 (Zheng Jiawei) "Programming education is not to cultivate code farmers, but to cultivate students’ programming ability, and the most important thing is the process, which trains the way of thinking in the process of presenting logical thinking and finally solves practical problems in life." Dr. Yu Xiaoya, a professor at Beijing Institute of Education, said.

  On the 21st, an observation activity and seminar on innovative classroom teaching of programming education in primary and secondary schools was held in Beijing. On the day of the meeting, teachers from all over the country gathered in the No.1 Primary School of Exhibition Road, Xicheng District, Beijing to observe the programming demonstration class provided by the No.1 Primary School of Exhibition Road, and discuss how to further cultivate students’ innovative thinking and practical ability after the course.

  In the demonstration class, under the guidance of the teacher, the students in Grade 5 of the primary school used the programming cat tool to complete the animation production and the programming of the voice-activated lighting system, respectively. Many students said that they liked the hands-on operation in class very much and wanted to continue to play programming when they got home.

  Guan Jiying, one of the two teachers who participated in the demonstration class, was responsible for teaching the programming of acoustic control lighting system. After the students finished the basic programming of acoustic control system, she further inspired the students to think about the practical application of acoustic control system, and finally guided the students to program the noise indicator system. When the surrounding voices were normal, the green light turned on, but when the voice was too loud, it turned red.

  On July 8th, this year, the State Council issued the Development Plan of the New Generation of Artificial Intelligence, specifically proposing to implement the national intelligence education project, set artificial intelligence related courses in primary and secondary schools, gradually promote programming education, and encourage social forces to participate in the development and promotion of educational programming teaching software and games.

  Zhu Hui, a researcher in Xicheng District, Beijing, said in an interview with Zhongxin.com that although the State Council issued a notice to add programming to the classrooms of primary and secondary schools, schools still need to choose appropriate programming tools in the actual operation process to make this requirement a reality.

  According to Zhu Hui, programming education in Xicheng District has always been in the forefront of Beijing. From the first computer elective course in 1982 to the graphical programming language education with "programming cats", it has always focused on cultivating students’ procedural thinking and solving problems in real life.
